A personal story from my first OU game. I was about 20 at the time. OU won the game and an old man (probably 60) in a Crimson sport coat was staggering up the stands to leave. He was pretty drunk and starts giving me all kinds of crap from 8 rows away. The closer he got, the more belligerent he got. Thought I needed to stand up before he got to me and as I did, I could see him realize that he wasn't 20 any more and was being an ass. I wished him well with the DPS on his trip back to Oklahoma as he passed by. The game was an intense experience, I was drained and had a migraine headache at the end. That is when I realized just how crazy this rivalry is. Truly hated OU since then...until my son decided to go there for school LOL!

Go Blake go! Can’t to read those notes.

Darian DeVries got a good one.

Shipley with the touchdown! And Case McCoy being a dog out there too.

He's another big dude. 6'5"! We have a bunch of big dudes on the mound.

I watched the kid from his junior year on, No way should he have ever been a walk-on

Bo certainly knows Bessemer

Blake Gideon was by Thompson High last week

Would love some softball notes too if you have them!

Got some fall ball notes coming down the pipe… most likely in the morning. Trying to gather a little more info.

Have only been in person for 2022 (49-0), 2024, 2025, and I'll be back this year. The 49-0 and 2025 games were the most fun. The Niblett punt return TD was the biggest crowd pop I've heard in those 3 games. The Dicker the kicker game winner and Chris Whaley moments were super memorable watching on TV as a kid

What happened in 2023?

How many “+” are available?

At least it wasn’t the Corny Dog place.

Sooner say Bad Medicine

Stony, Stony, Stony!!!!!! He is forever a cult hero. I met him a few years ago and he is one hell of a nice guy.

This. I had just moved out of state for first time in my life. Was walking to Texas exes watch party and I walked into the bar right then. First time we made a big play in 5 years and won on the way to the natty!

Cancer sucks.

So many great memories (and several bad ones, sadly) to choose from, but that Pittman TD still resonates with me. That time of the game was usually a time when we would take the foot off the gas and slide into halftime with a decent lead. That play spoke for what we became in 2005, when we would choke out anyone in our path. That attitude got us a natty.

Stony Clark, Rod B pick 6 2002 (my first TX/OU game), 2005, Shipley kickoff 2008, Chris Whaley 2013, 2015, 2022!

Cameron Dicker – and the party that ensued afterwards. That was an absolute blast as a student
