If I'm being honest, I would flat out HATE OU if I were not a fan (and Jordy would get the majority of my ire because she is so good and has such a commanding presence on the mound). So I can kind of understand the anyone but OU mentality of what...

You could stand on the corner handing out $100 bills and a percentage of the folks that get one will find a reason to complain. It's a futile effort to try to make folks happy when only one team's season will end the way they want. The outcome is...
I think most of us have discussed this on other threads. While I wouldn't be totally surprised to see Jordy out there, my guess is that either May or Storako starts with a short leash.

You're right...she did.
But she's a much better pitcher now.
But I'd really like to see Alex get the start and have a good few innings.
What do you think about starting May in inning 1, Storacko in inning 2-3, Deal in inning 4-5 and finishing up with Jordy? Have we ever tried the rotating pitchers approach as a game strategy? I know usually I say go with the hot hand, but we do have...

I tend to think Storako gets the start only because Nicole started against Stanford. But regardless who starts, I believe this will be a Storako/May or May/Storako game. Bahl could very easily be called upon if the Sooners have a lead late just to...
Sometimes, things just fail to live up to the hype. Sometimes, the cerebral game just goes haywire for a team. With an expected matchup of two of the top tier pitchers in D1 softball, Jordy Bahl for OU and Kat Sandercock for Florida State did not...

I could see starting Storako but giving her a very short leash. If she walks more than 1 or gives more than 1-3 hits I would say pull her for May. I really really would love to see her start and settle in and be in mid-season form. I'm just not sure...
Already names are being entered in the Transfer Portal.
Any names you dream about showing up?
Anybody you would consider adding to the Sooner team if she became available??
Of course we will have a solid team next year if we do nothing in the...

:ou: Patty approaches recruiting the much the same as Barry Switcher did when he was our head football coach. It didnt matter to Barry how good a player he had at any position , he was always out trying to recruit someone even better. Barry told the...
Keep in mind this was a day game not primetime. Imagine what reg season games will be like when softball and football move to SeC. Gonna be big

Yeah - I'm a little disappointed with 1.4 million really because that was a prime spot (2PM) Saturday game on ABC. Was hoping for more viewers. Perhaps we will see it in the champ series in prime time tonight.
The Sooner Softball semester has run its course and now we're at the end of the term. Some are at the end of their College Career. Which brings us to Final Exams. This is what we have been going to class for all semester. Cramming to learn...
The advertised date for receiving THE Ticket Selection EMAIL that will provide the 'window time' for selecting the tickets for Love's Field on June 5th has come and gone.
The actual ticket selection is nearing. The 12th is next Monday. What has...

The notice actually says the email with selection times will be sent out the week of June 5. So they have until the end of this week before they...
I noticed that Joe Buck had been doing some of the WCWS games. I am not a big “hate the announcer” guy like a lot of people are but not sure why Beth Mowins has been demoted. If I remember correctly, she always did the big softball games.
Joe does...

Well there you go, I thought it was JB. Sounded just like him.
I stand corrected and it definitely won't be the last time.
Tonight, the WCS Finals start in OKC at OG&E Energy Field at the Hall of Fame Softball Complex. The stands will be full of OU fans who will cheer their lungs out for their Sooners and who will respectfully watch Florida State challenge the #1...

I always enjoy your write-ups, 56! You call it the way you see it, not the way you want it....it just works out that both ways work in unison in this case.
But I really want a 2-0 Championship! That would allow next year's team to carry-on, but...
You can see in the background that the batting practice facility is complete with roof and sides.
There is a big concrete pad for something to the south of the stands area.
The cinder block square in the center is the...

As an off topic to the intent of this thread, Tia and lil sis, Breya, also visited the construction site. Hopefully, lil sis also would like to play on Love Field in a couple of years.
What was the deal about ESPN having a focus about pitchers throwing hard to OU and the resulting low batting average? I know there was one graphic that ESPN put up about OU facing pitchers that threw 71+ or something like that. It said that OU hit...

Austin’s reply triggered a memory for me - i recall when the Big 12 tournament was double elimination, they did use both fields and some of the lower seeded teams complained that they never got to play in HOF, because they were eliminated early....
I stumbled onto this post this morning. June 5th is the 6-year anniversary of the 17th inning shot by Shay Knighten, It made me think, Has Florida been the same since then?
Florida has made it to the WCWS in 3 of the next 5 years, but only one two...

I didn't realize that Kenny Gajewski had come from the FU program in 2015. (I only knew that he used to be employed at OU). I was certainly well aware that Jen Rocha left the FU program when hired by Patty Gasso. Those 2 events IMO were part of the...
In what may become a legendary game down the road, the Oklahoma Sooners were able to stand back up after a 1st inning blow delivered by Stanford and eventually deliverd the final and biggest blow to win the game over Stanford 4-1 in 9 innings. The...

I ran into this, pretty amazing since we faced the other 2
Well, Puni stakes the Vols to a 1-0 lead. Noles start Leonard and may have to choose soon if they are going to hold Sandercock in reserve.

I think Tenn messed up not trying to win the OU game by throwing Rogers. And then tonight again not starting her. But now putting her in. There is no game 2 if they don’t win game 1. Now down 1-3 and in trouble. Too late imo.
I said a few weeks ago that FSU was the best team we played up until Clemson and now after having played Tenn, I'm still kind of leaning that way. However, I want to play whichever has the WEAKEST pitching. I'm kind of done with seeing elite...

It looks like we are probably going to be playing FSU on Wednesday at 7pm until Tennessee can come back from 5-1 deficit
