Posted by Sailor Ripley on December 31st, 2009 under Football
Went over to Boomer & Sooner to get a pulse count on how they thought they might fare to day, but it seems they have possibly already given up on this craptacular season the Sooners have had.
Trips doesn’t have a ton of comfort pulling the trigger on this contest either.
I think Harbaugh and Stanford have a lot to play for and will win this. I can see the handful of non-injured Sooners who have NFL futures, thinking more about that.
On to the game.

I just made my Sailor Ripley 10 star lock of the year bet on Stanford plus 10.5.
If I lose, I’m only responsible for the juice, right Sailor?
Huckleberry said:
December 31st, 2009 at 11:58 am
Sailor’s take says you should play the Stanford moneyline.
This is a small, unimportant game. Therefore, OU will shut down the one-dimensional Cardinal offense and win the game.

Whoops. This is why I let Trips do my betting for me…

Broyles is a badass and that was a dart from Landry Jones.
I guess the upside is that maybe the Big XII even its perceived shittiness wasn’t too bad.

Holy crap! Did anyone see the angle of the OU guys foot compared to his leg?
Huckleberry said:

Badly broken leg for the Sooner DT. Looked like the Aggie basketball player’s.
Trips Right said:

Rumor is that Stoops flew to Chiapas to meet with President Calderon on how to defeat the Zapatista guerrillas.

God dammit, that’s the second one of those leg snaps I’ve seen live in a week.

If they lose, will Stoops use the injury as an excuse?

He’s going to blame Taylor for not drinking more milk.
BatesHorn said:

Sitting on a plane at DFW, reading this on Blackberry, the surreality of this thread is, shall we say…..substantial.
A robust sooner loss would bring in the new year nicely.

I have never seen anything like OU’s injuries this year.
Huckleberry said:

Landry Jones is fucking terrible. Wide open TE for the first down and he throws a high-risk pass 7 yards further downfield.

How could anyone not root for Toby Gerhart…
Does Toby know he is at the Sun Bowl or does he think this is another Special Olympics event?
Blueshorn said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:30 pm
Yeah, baby. Big INT return for Stanford.
Blueshorn said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:32 pm
“Does Toby know he is at the Sun Bowl or does he think this is another Special Olympics event?”
There’s a difference?

nordberg said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:36 pm
I’d like to quiz every announcer who refers to Toby as a throwback.
“So why do you refer to him as a throwback?”
“Well um you see it’s really um because um what I’m trying to get at is um you see…”
“Because he’s white?”
“(sighing) yeah.”
Huckleberry said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:38 pm
I’m not sure, but I think every Stanford player on the field for that touchdown was white. Hard not to score with 11 coaches on the field.
HenryJames said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Houston hasn’t played defense since they had Lamar Lathon, Craig Veasey, Alfred Oglesby etc.
babytime said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:41 pm
Jeez….I caught myself leaning having sympathetic feelings towards the sooners based on national perception of our conference and that nasty leg injury, but after Stanford scored I instinctively celebrated and snapped back to the reality that I innately despise them. OU sucks and I hope they continue to do so.
Trips Right said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:43 pm
God I hate that fucking song. It makes me want to snap someone’s leg.

No Huck, the LT was black, thus providing the necessary athleticism to score..
Blueshorn said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:49 pm
LMAO. Zeroes luck out on the false start penalty as the kick bounces off the goalpost.
Blueshorn said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:55 pm
Ghost,
I believe the large black man on the left end of the line might have actually been the TE in the jumbo package. I suppose that would make more sense, given the additional athleticism required of a TE.
NY Horn said:
December 31st, 2009 at 12:57 pm
How did USC not win this shitty conference? I think A&M would have gone 10-3 there.

Did that talking tit rack just say they asked Bob Stoops how to keep the team’s momentum going all season? Has she not paid attention to Oklahoma’s late-season and bowl record?
CrazyJoeDavola said:
December 31st, 2009 at 1:07 pm
I was about to write that UH’s problems were more about Keenum’s 5 ints.
And then AF’s white FB tears off a 70-yard dive play for a TD.

Has a quarterback ever finished a game with more interceptions than yards?
Blueshorn said:

The extent to which they still schlob Stoops’ knob after the last few years amazes me. He’s in the fucking Sun Bowl, for God’s sake.

Am I reading the play-by-play correctly on ESPN.com? Is Sam Bradford really playing now? Did Stoops really bring him in right after Stanford took the lead for the first time?

Yea I forgot about Cougar High

Maybe a loss to Cincinnati depending on who they keep from this years team.

Watching Stanford run on OU’s defense makes me hate GD even more, if that’s possible.

You have the story confused, although it did involve McFarland. Direct quote for McFarland’s mother was that Longhorn boosters would take care of her family. To refresh your memory http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/30/sports/ncaafootball/30mcfarland.html?_r=2&ref=sports&oref=slogin. Cheaters

Soonerspy, were these the same boosters that threw the party that inspired this McFarland whopper?
“I will never forget the excitement amongst all participants,” McFarland wrote. “Alcohol was all you can drink, money was not an option. Girls were acting wild by taking off their tops, and pulling down their pants. Girls were also romancing each other. Some guys loved every minute of the freakiness some girls demonstrated. I have never attended a party of this magnitude.”
He continued: “The attitude of the people at the party was that everyone should drink or not come to the party. Drugs were prevalent with no price attached.”
He compared that with a house party hosted by a sorority at Oklahoma.
“Drinks were plentiful, but not to the extent they were” at the Dallas party, he wrote. “Some people were tipsy, but in control of themselves.”
He described the atmosphere as pleasant and added: “Some people who attend the University of Oklahoma seem to represent different values than some people who attend the University of Texas.”

Trips, a lot of that story was bogus or, at least, irrelevant. I was referring to the direct quotes from McFarland’s mother. It’s all history but I wonder why this is repeatedly mentioned on BC. UT boosters were offering cash. Plain and simple.

So you believe everything any recruit’s parent says? Do you really think that Texas boosters offered Mama McFarland cash, she came out publicly and said as much, and nobody looked into it? That takes a whole lot of stupidity.

I think if Luck is there, they win it.

Texas fans will spend needless energy taking away credit from Oklahoma but this was a good win for them. A well coached, physical team that came to play and got the lead on them was unable to put them away. In games past the Sooners have had a tendency to fold when someone punches them in the mouth.
Today they stayed in the game despite nothing really on the line and won. The fact that they are celebrating an otherwise meaningless game is more pride than those seniors have ever shown, IMO.

Well, the Sooners sure as shit showed more pride than UH and Missouri did today. They had a number of chances to lie down like dogs and they didn’t.
Hey, if OU loses, we get to celebrate.
If they win, we might get a little reflected benefit of the doubt for our win over them.
Until, of course, Bob Fucking Stoops and his Fucking Coaching Tree and Childhood Best Pals start their back-channel media campaign trying to let everyone knows that Texas is soft, Texas is overrated, and here are a few tips we’ve come up with on how to beat them this year (but didn’t use).
Newy25 said:

They have no control over that. The end result is they demonstrated an ability to do something they have not been able to do in recent years. This does not mean they are preseason favorites to win the South. It simply means a good win today for Oklahoma.
NateHeupel said:

For maybe the first time ever, I agree with newy. Only the dumbest of dumb motherfuckers would look at this game and say “With Andrew Luck in, Stanford wins this game.” Ripley, I have an enormous amount of respect for you, but that’s the kind of ignorant shit normally reserved for me (or CloseToJumping) to say.
Yes, OU would’ve lost if Andrew Luck was playing.
OU would’ve won by 50 if we’d had the following players healthy for the entire game:
Auston English
Jarvis Jones
Brian Lepak
Ben Habern
Sam Bradford
Jermaine Gresham
Adrian Taylor (and)
Brody Eldridge
Anyone referring to Stanford’s one major loss to injury as the difference maker in this game can go ahead and die in a fire. We were starting our left tackle at center.
The one card you don’t get to pull on OU is the injury card. We’ve got the royal flush on that game.
Side Note: If my memory serves me correctly, this is the first time since 2006 that OU has come from behind at halftime to win a game against a ranked team.

Nate –
Context, hombre.
I was not saying that if the Sooners were at full strength and Andrew Luck had been able to play, he would be the deciding factor in a Stanford win. We all realize that had you had all your guys this year, you’d be busy getting ready to lose a BCS bowl.
I was discussing why in my initial post, way at the top of the page, I had picked Stanford in today’s game. I already knew that half your team was on crutches, in a splint, or on penicillin. What I didn’t know about TODAY’S GAME was that Luck was out. Had Luck played TODAY, I think Stanford would have won.
Capiche?
Nate’s quick post game thoughts are here and he and the rest of the Boomer & Sooner crew promise a more thorough break down in the next day or two.

Talent acquisition. One team on the field does it the right way, the other, well not so much.

I”m know they don’t have any control over Luck’s injury. Stanford without Luck probably doesn’t make any bowl game period. That is why OU fans shouldn’t consider it a good win. We’ve been making fun of them for losing BCS bowls. They’ve won the other ones like the Holiday (Oregon) and Cotton Bowls (Arkansas) in the past 10 years. Them winning a shitty bowl game over a shitty team (with no Luck) shouldn’t mean shit to a program like OUs.
