ou48a, you seem to also have a problem and call a conspiracy at the Thunder using bright orange rather than the agreed-upon shade somewhere in between orange and red, whatever call that is. Myself, as a Thunder first kind of guy, I happen to like the clash of the bright orange with the deep jazzy blue, and I think most Thunder fans prefer that combination.

I'm going to go ahead and encourage folks to take your posts with a grain of salt. "You just don't know, I heard this on all the talk radio stations." Right... You appear to be obsessed with OU and with trashing anyone and anything that rivals your beloved OU. Which is ironic because you made this post earlier:


Or for fans who would rather tear down the accomplishments of others than build up their own program.

This is why I strongly dislike the Bedlam teams and think they do a poor job of representing our state. You die hard fans on both sides (that's a figurative *you*, if you feel this applies, then I'm talking to you) are in my opinion an embarrassment for this state, just as the Auburn-Bama fans are kind of embarrassing for them.

Just don't go poisoning any trees, ou48a.

What happened to discussion over how good OSU will be next season? Why did this crap rear its ugly head? I happen to be extremely intrigued by the huge wild card that OSU will be next season, with a bunch of mostly unproven, albeit very athletic and highly-recruited, replacements for Weeden2Blackmon. I agree with the sentiment that how well OSU reloads this year is going to be extremely telling of where their program has risen to, which adds to the intrigue IMO.

Good grief, you are more than just a little gullible.
I guess you have never seen the nothing good comes in orange or the I hate orange tee shirts that some OU fans sometimes wear.
99% of this is in good fun as part of the banter than goes back and forth. But *YOU* Spartan feel the need to take it to the next level.
PS: I have already poisoned many trees................................... It was part of my job assignment at one time in my life.

Thats because of ticket pricing. We had virtual sellouts last year minus a hundred or so club level seats that were empty. Ones that you can't buy individually, only season tickets.. They ain't too cheap so they aren't always all sold
Part of the problem is having an AD with a country club mindset whose strings are being pulled by a billionaire. Just because the top level schools tickets were at a certain price doesn't mean that OSU needed to get there in one big leap. Ticket prices at OU used to be quite a bit cheaper but went up incrementally every year, friends that have season tickets at UT and A&M had the same thing happen to them. I think the big jump that Holder/Boone put together was more sticker shock to the OSU fans than anything else. If they would've had their prices go up a little every year the OSU fans might not have been so resistant to it.

The information has been in the DOK newspaper over the past several years. The OSU ticket policy and the free or discounted tickets have also been talked about extensively on the talk shows and to the point of it being sickening to hear about. If you were paying any attention to the talk shows you would have a hard time not remember it, unless you are a forgetful person.

But I suspect there are some (not all) bandwagon OSU fans who have been paying very little attention to OSU until their recent success. Every school that experiences new success has bandwagon fans. But IMHO they are a good problem to have.

PS: There are lots of very good reasons to pay full face value for a ticket.

Until you show proof this is simply not true. OSU has never offered discounted tickets to football games.
Mike Holder does not relent with football tickets. Never have they offered football tickets discounted to certain people or given them away. Quit spreading second hand false information.

And while your at it, I'm dying to know how many more days to kickoff....

I just wanted to quote a post from another reasonable, level-headed OU grad and fan who isn't being incendiary, just to prove that they do exist and it is possible.

Of course it’s not true to you because you don’t even know what goes on with your own football program. This is just a cursory look. I know you don’t care enough about your own program to find out this stuff for yourself but there is more out there on this.

I'm actually not. You're being a troll in this thread to the OSU fans, and I'm going to call you out on it because I've been an equal-opportunity offender to both fan bases on here. The Pokes on here probably still don't like me.

Not only do you fail to prove how offering a recent grad discount (which is standard in NCAA-BCS teams) equates to filling the stadium up with free tickets for City of Stillwater employees, but you fail to the nth degree in proving how that has anything whatsoever to do with the topic of this thread - whether OSU will be very good this upcoming season.

By the way, not only does OU also do *gasp* promotions, but theirs took me less than 5 seconds to find:
http://i49.tinypic.com/1znu4o5.jpg

Please just give the troll thing up.

Spartan, You’re not following the conversation very well and your desperation is glowing.

I never once said that OU doesn’t do promotions.

The claim was that OSU didn’t do football ticket promotions when clearly they do.

onthestrip said “OSU has never offered discounted tickets to football games" "Never have they offered football tickets discounted to certain people or given them away".


But I will say that by comparison, OU’s football ticket discounts in recent years are much less common and are generally much less by percentage…They don’t need to be. It’s just the way it is when you have a much larger fan base.

You represented it like they just threw out free tickets before games or had a fire sale for tickets so they could fill up the stadium, which isn't true. So OSU has common promotions that everyone has that gives small (not thousands of people),select groups a discount for a certain game. As spartan said, stop being so much of a troll.

Fan base wasn't around in 90-92 (prob most of the early-mid 90's) when I went to OU...Stoops goes away and they hit a rough patch watch for some deep discounting to fill the seats

Any team having rough patches for years will eventually have to do something. The problems of the nineties for OU originated from sanctions placed on the team from 89 - 92, then having a succession of coaching staffs not work out.

There were a few other factors as well but I agree with you.
It’s worth noting that every Stoops coached game at OU has been an official sell out.
And there is a substainual waiting list for OU football season tickets.

That will disappear if they pull a Miami (record wise not crime wise)

We can compare it to OSU basketball fans who always called out OU basketball fans for not showing up...OSU basketball starts to suck and we see a bunch of empty orange seats

That will disappear if they pull a Miami (record wise not crime wise)

We can compare it to OSU basketball fans who always called out OU basketball fans for not showing up...OSU basketball starts to suck and we see a bunch of empty orange seats

Sure anything can disappear but even during the darkest year of OU football in the 90's OU still averaged about 69,000 in paid attendance. At the time this was the 19th best attendance in the nation. OU has a far larger and far more loyal fan base than Miami.
I didn’t enjoy the outcome of many of those football games in the 90’s but I still had fun and I knew I was doing a small part along with many others in helping the program to live for a better day.

"Will OSU be a top 10 team this season?" Short answer, no.

OSU doubling Gallagher-Iba helped contribute to that. Unless its a place like Kansas, Kentucky, Louisville, Duke you just don't fill up an arena for every game but OSU came close before the expansion. I remember going to games at Fredrickson Fieldhouse at OCU when Abe Lemmons was the coach, always a great atmosphere in that tiny gym. I think OSU lost that feeling when they expanded Gallagher-Iba. I think Sparks did a great job on the project, I just feel that it was a more special place to see a game when it was smaller.

I think you're the one that is selectively recalling your ludicrous posts in this thread. This is what you said:


Thousands of free or deeply discounted tickets to OSU football games have gone to Stillwater public schools employees and their students, City of Stillwater employees. Also to Oklahoma EMT, Law enforcement, fire personnel, and to members of the Oklahoma National Guard/ military. Also individual ticket buyers have been able to buy very cheap tickets for a few select low level type games. OSU has also sold tickets in a way where they have spread people out, making the stadium look mostly full.
Fair or not OSU has received a fair amount of criticism over its ticket policy on talk shows and in the papers. But they have been nice enough to OU to allow an extra 1150 more tickets than the Big 12 required minimum distribution.

There is a huge difference between what you are alleging in that post and what you proved by referring to a few family-friendly promotions that both schools do. God forbid OSU show their appreciation for military and public servants by charging them only one leg for a ticket.

How can you just breeze over the huge rift between what OSU does do, which you have shifted your focus to, and the crazy conspiracy of thousands of free tickets given away last minute around Stillwater hoping to fill the seats up a bit more. That's preposterous because OSU can factually trace lower than expected attendance to a very stubborn ticket pricing policy, "those fans must pay up just like Boone did," kind of philosophy. They would just reinstate reasonable ticket prices (rather than the NCAA's most expensive) before they are giving out thousands of last minute freebies to each game just to get butts in seats.

OSU is desperate in basketball, so if you want to go there (but be prepared to hear about how OU is even more desperate in bball) that is certainly valid. It is very sad what has happened to a once-great bball powerhouse that now isn't even average anymore. But that steep decline can also probably be attributed not just to the Thunder, but also the steep rise of a very solid football program, that whether you like it or not, probably has more staying power than I first suspected.

When OU has hit "rough patches" the stands were still pretty full. I remember the crowd's always being 60,000+ during the awful Blake years. Even OU's attendance at it's worst would be 2nd best in the Big 12 (behind Texas). Just pointing out that OU's fans are actually pretty loyal.

You could make a much better argument with the Hornet's being an issue than the Thunder in OSU's case as they were already trying to rebuild a couple years before the Thunder arrived.

There is a huge difference between what you are alleging in that post and what you proved by referring to a few family-friendly promotions that both schools do.

You are wrong and even more desperately ridiculous than before…
The OSU ticket giveaways and discounts in the past have amounted to thousands of tickets.
The discounts that OU offers for football tickets in recent years is not even remotely close to the same number or close to the same percentage of discount. Clearly you are just spouting stuff and the fact is that you are way out of your league on this! OU’s Athletic budget is significantly higher than OSU’s in part because OU only discounts football tickets as a courtesy to a small number of people rather than as a necessity to fill seats like OSU has done.

PS: OSU has already set a record for its Football season ticket sales this year.
So it’s good for them that they won’t need to offer as many discounts and free tickets as OSU has done in recent years.

can someone show me the link to where OU offered the discounted tickets??

I bolded the most telling part of your post. I was at most, if not all, of those games and there's no way there were that many people in the stands, especially during the Blake experiment. There were so many empty seats we spent part of the games laying down on the bleachers. My kids could stretch out pretty much at will. Bigger fan base? Sure, but more loyal? I seriously doubt it.

OU didn’t take a turnstile count of the fans attending back then. That’s why I worded it the way I did.
I was at every home Blake game until every final snap. You are correct, there were a lot of no shows for some games and a lot of people left early, but the 69,000 figure that I gave is reasonably accurate along with OU having the 19th best paid attendance.

But to doubt that OU’s fans are not more loyal than Miami fans is silly at best. There have been many Miami games where crowds in the 30,000’s & 40,000's were common. Even during the best of times Miami did not sell out a good number of its games. Miami is very much a pro town... I guess we will need to wait and see what happens but the lack of solid Miami fan support and the resulting drain on its resources (+ NCAA problems) is part of the reason why the Miami administration has been reported to be considering deemphasizing football at their university.

I didn't read your post well enough. I assumed since it's an OSU thread, that's who you were referring to. My bad.

LOL… That’s fine…. I can’t say as I blame you since a number of post on this thread have been much less than factual.:)

College football is my biggest hobby. I find the more I learn about the various histories and traditions of the teams involved, the more enjoyable the experience is for me. I still have much to learn.:)

Good question? :wink:

Nobody who has said that OU discounts its tickets with a few family-friendly promotions just like OSU does has tried to answer the question?

I was told once that when you are wrestling in the mud with a pig, eventually you realize the pig enjoys it. I feel the same with this post, I just have to quit because there is no point with ou48a. Your fanaticism surpasses all, congratulations.

And before you say that you are right and I am wrong you did start the argument with this, which is completely false and you havent proved otherwise:
"Thousands of free or deeply discounted tickets to OSU football games have gone to Stillwater public schools employees and their students, City of Stillwater employees. Also individual ticket buyers have been able to buy very cheap tickets for a few select low level type games."

I was told a very long time ago that pigs get slaughtered and particularly so when they don’t know what they are talking about and are so pig headed they stick with it.

You got slaughtered, gutted, and hung out to dry when you were proven to be wrong when you said……
"OSU has never offered discounted tickets to football games" "Never have they offered football tickets discounted to certain people or given them away".

The facts are that OSU has and will continue offer deep discounts in the 2012 season…. even after their most succefull season that anyone can ever remember. OSU does it out of the necessity to fill seats.
Just like OU has the largest in state football fan base it’s just the way it is.

You got slaughtered, gutted, and hung out to dry when you were proven to be wrong when you said……

onthestrip - you're going to have to settle with being slaughtered, gutted, and hung out to dry, sooner fan style. You're only going to keep getting trolled the more you feed him. Take it from me, as I have a lot of experience with trolls on this board..

He's probably not a bad poster, he just happens to be caught up on this one issue and has clearly demonstrated that he's one of these rival-obsessed OU fans. These people get more pleasure out of seeing OSU and Texas lose than they do seeing OU win. Not much you can do for these folks..

It is funny to watch the histrionics of someone like Spartan who is clearly out of his league on this message board topic. Spartan has clearly been proven wrong but yet he just keeps yapping away.

But before I end my responses to Spartan who is not even a fan of either OU or OSU and is a complete waste of time, because he doesn’t know what he is talking about I will let him know that I have been an OU fan for the past 49 years (since the age of 5). I have been a continuous OU season ticket holder in football for the past 33 years. I’m a small time donor and OU alumni. I think I have learned a little about the sport beyond just the games and my team. I have matured enough and to the point where I take no special pleasure when OSU or Texas lose beyond how it might help OU.

I actually know and like several fans of both Universities’. Because they are not offended by facts it’s usually the older, wiser, and more mature type of fan that I get along well with.

For me learning about what others in college football are doing only enriches the total year round fan experience year. It sometimes provides ideas to emulate. There are hundreds of thousands of college football fans around the nation who are a lot like me, with some knowing far more than I do. I usually try listening first, to see what I might learn.

Back to topic

OSU fortunes depend almost entirely on the quality of its quarterback play.
At this point the OSU QB’s abilities are pretty much of an unknown.
I don’t expect to see OSU drive off the football cliff this year but I don’t expect to see OSU winning the B12 again either.

I will predict a 8-4 or 9-3 type of year for OSU.

osu loses 4 or 5 regular season games

Pickens predicts the Cowboys will have a 9-3 season for 2012. Might be good enough to finish in the top 10.

Considering that ou oSu ksu baylor west virginia & tcu all finished with 10 win seasons last year and for the most part those teams are either the same or reloading, 9-3 would be a great season.

OSU fortunes depend almost entirely on the quality of its quarterback play.
That could be said of about 95% of the teams in any division of college football. Just like the NFL the offenses are very QB-centric and when they falter most teams do.

Maybe even more so for the Big XII due to practically every team running a spread offence, some with practically no running options (cough Texas Tech).

On top of that, it's Savannah State.

Even if it's written like that, the point is pretty easy to catch

No, it really wasnt. Nice try at humor though.

But I do agree about the Savannah St scheduling. Its weak by any measure but to be honest its probably best for breaking in a frosh qb. Sorry to any OU fans that might be upset by OSU's schedule....

For whatever its worth, this game has been picked up by Fox College Sports

As for the scheduling, it probably is best for him and OSU in general. No reason to go out there and make a freshman play the toughest games that would test the likes of Zac Robinson and even Brandon Weeden. He'll have enough time to prove himself over the next couple of seasons.

For whatever its worth, this game has been picked up by Fox College Sports

Fox College Sports is the station that has loud mouth Gus Johnson, right?

I can read it but had no idea what the joke was or why you would congratulate teachers with some gibberish...

And Gus did FX games last year but not sure about FSN or Fox College Sports games. Maybe he did since they are essentially the same company.

You said it really isn't easy to get my point so I assumed you couldn't understand it. No joke, just congratulating them, but next time I'll do it eloquently with proper english so you won't get confused and offended by my jibber-jabber, sound good?

It says his contract is with Fox Sports so I would think it will be him calling the game.

How much is "face value" of OSU season tickets without any donations? I ask this because I get emails from the KC Chiefs (bought my OU-KU at Arrowhead game tickets from the Chiefs) and it surprises me how cheap their season tickets are compared to how much I know Dallas and Denver season tickets cost. They have some that are cheaper than OU season tickets for more games.

How much is "face value" of OSU season tickets without any donations? I ask this because I get emails from the KC Chiefs (bought my OU-KU at Arrowhead game tickets from the Chiefs) and it surprises me how cheap their season tickets are compared to how much I know Dallas and Denver season tickets cost. They have some that are cheaper than OU season tickets for more games.

Osu doesn't sell out so unlike OU face value changes depending on where you are in the stadium .. the club seats are not cheap ..

OU every ticket is the same price stadium wide

I could see there might be less variation but stadium wide seems highly unlikely

I highly doubt that.... So every crimson n' cream bastard is on the waiting list to get to those sideline seats huh?

It is a fact that the face value of every regular OU home football ticket is the same regardless of location.

Students do receive a discount. The donations required for better seating is kept separate. People who buy OU season tickets receive a small discount from face value.

There is the STEP program that requires a yearly donation for premium seats.
OU also has the Sooner club. The Sooner club determines the priority for OU Texas, road, and Bowl game tickets. There are other perks such as priority parking and free merchandise.

The Sooner club just broke an all-time record donation level. The Sooner club provides OU with a constant stream of revenue from many different people, over 10,000. Over a 10, 20, 30 year period this is a tremendous amount of money and it helps separates OU from the majority of other athletic programs. The Sooner Club is on top of the in-kind one time donations that usually go toward specific projects.
