I guess the fans will take any opportunity to see OU not embarrass themselves.

OU fans are so weird. No one cares. Have fun beating Kansas by 2 and thinking you’re not the most overrated team in college football yet again.

You will be 9th in capacity out of 16 teams behind A&M, Tennessee, LSU, Alabama, Texas, Georgia, Florida and Auburn

Woodward to Norman/OKC or Tulsa is not a valid comparison.

Is Auburn or Florida planning on expanding in the next three years? Because Gaylord Memorial is in the final stages of renovation that is planned to bring capacity just over 89,000 by 2024. This would put them at 7 and in the top half of the conference.

Oklahoma's stadium definitely wouldn't be in the bottom half of the SEC in Stadium Capacity...


...they would be 8th....wait...that would be in the bottom half (and that isn't including Texas when they are added).

1. aTm - 1-2,733
2. UT - 102,455
3. LSU - 102,321
4. Bama - 101,821
5. Texas - 100,119
6. Georgia - 92,746
7. Florida - 88,548
8. Auburn - 87,451
9. Oklahoma - 86,112

So, 8th without Texas...9th including Texas...

Golly Gee...whooopeee...lol.. Blow U’s average football attendance of 76,000 pre Covid would put you in about 8th place in the SEC. So what does OU bring to the conference besides one game against Texas?

See above comment, if OU joins by 2024, they would be 7th (unless Auburn or Florida are planning to expand capacity).

Oklahoma is an awesome football program that will compete in the SEC immediately on the field.

But all that other stuff that they used to be top dog in by far in the Big 8 and 1st/2nd with Texas in the Big 12 is over. Fanbase intensity, stadium size, etc. Your competition there was Oklahoma State, Baylor and Kansas State. Here it's LSU, Georgia and Texas A&M.

Some of you need to figure that out. Bragging about your stadium size or how much you care about football isn't going to get you very far in a league where that just equates to bare minimum requirements.

I'd say 2nd Daddy, as they are 2-13 in Norman.

That’s a good crowd but don’t change that your stadium is small by our standards and definitely quieter than all of ours except for a couple

Far far short of the 95,000 Alabama fans for Saban's first year.

Congratulations on jumping up to the smallest stadium in the top half of the conference. You will come in and be the West Virginia (Big-12 equivalent) of the SEC when it comes to stadium capacity.
