I didn't realize until yesterday that they put the winner's logo on the video board. I don't know of another place that would do that. Good luck the rest of the way, Sooner.

Is this real or photoshop?

I have trouble imagining any program being this ... magnanimous ... in defeat.

Back when Alabama played them @ Oklahoma in the early 2000s, it was too far for Alabama to bring it's band.

The Oklahoma band played our fight song since our band wasn't there. I always thought that was cool.

Then after Fran left Alabama for Texas A&M, they played it multiple times during that game as well.



I've always pulled for Oklahoma over Texas.

Well, I've been to 3 games in Norman...but I didn't realize that either ¯\_(?)_/¯, on a related note.. I've NEVER seen Mizzou win in Norman either..correlation to causation or something?

Nope.

That was a huge part of what made our old Big 8 rivalry with OU so cool.

Those were almost always hellacious, extremely hard-hitting, hard fought and highly emotional games (and back then the entire nation knew about Nebraska vs. Oklahoma) but the losing side was always gracious in defeat and would just tip their cap to the victor and went about trying to work harder for the next time.

Does not surprise me in the least about OU.

Good to see respect and good sportsmanship still lives on in some parts of our country.

Tennessee always plays the opposing team's fight song during the pre-game show. Then they play Rocky Top immediately after

They’ve finally gotten better in recent years (although still not great) our band was legit the worst in the SEC. Half the time the opposing band was louder than ours at home.

Oklahoma has always been all class. When the tornados hit Tuscaloosa they sent their power company to help. Their governor came to the game one year in Alabama and addressed the fans in BDS. They are a class program for sure and their fans are always a class act.

I said from the beginning Oklahoma would fit into the SEC just fine. And Texas would not.

I stand by my prediction.

Me and my son are heading to Norman for the LSU game. That trip was on our bucket list and became a no brainer when the Sooners joined the SEC. There’s a ton of history in that stadium.

That’s because Austin is like a boil on the arse of Texas.

Class move.

When we beat Notre Dame in South Bend this year they pulled the scoreboard down within seconds of the game ending so people couldn't get pictures of the final. So weak.
