If you look at the weather radar, Norman (just south of OK City) is where OU is.  It is about the same distance as Bama playing in Brookwood.

Dawson steals home. 3-2
Unfortunately it is 3-1, but I like your thinking.

Rickett's is rattled.  RTR
Another WP,and Bama scores.

Looks like a weather break.

Sooners getting the outside corner than Traina isn't getting.
That second strike was over the lefty's batters box.

Only way we got the walk is OU pitcher rolled the ball on the ground a couple of times.

This ump is ridiculous.
13311  Around Campus / The Quad / Re: Nick Saban comes out in favor of a nine-game SEC schedule on: June 06, 2012, 11:05:59 PM
But for the first time publicly Wednesday, Saban indicated that he would like to see the league go to a nine-game schedule, even if it means Alabama backing away from nonconference games such as the Sept. 1 opener against Michigan in the Dallas area.

Click here for link
That's not a direct quote, and the thing is so poorly written that even the quotes are suspect.  (Don Kausler)  But it does seem to be the jist of Saban's answers to questions.

Saban apparently did say this:

Quote
"When you increase the size of the league by 15 percent, you've almost got to play more games to get a true indication of who's the best team in the league. We should come up with some format in the future where every player in the league gets an opportunity to play every team in the league. We've kind of had that in the past. This format won't necessarily give every player an opportunity to do that."

 
I do think mostly he is just responding to questions.

And while I do like the inter-conference matchups, they are becomming fewer and farther between.  Last year Oregon played LSU.  That apparently cost them an opportunity for the BCSCG.  This year they play no one outside of their conference.  Ohio State is getting out of its future Georgia games.  OK and Texas also have gotten away from those games, with OK trying to buy out Bama one year.  Texas did add ND to their schedule, but that hardly counts, and it probably will be a big revenue game for them.  Bama is one of the few teams actually still doing this on a consistent -- Saban likes it for recruiting, getting the team to focus over the summer, and when he first got here it got Bama back in the spotlight.  But WV and VT in Atlanta hardly count anymore either, been there done that.  Also, those are teams seeking to gain exposure by playing Bama, not teams hoping to get into a championship game.  And I think that they will benefit more from those games than will Bama -- which has again writ its name.

So I can see Saban's point.  I think it is inevitable, with conference expansion and teams trying to limit the number of tough games that they play out of conference, that a move might be made towards increasing the number of conference games.  Also, it is great for revenue -- ESPN might pay for Bama v. Vandy, but will mostly ignore Bama v. North Texas or South Georgia.

Maybe Saban is just ahead of the curve.  Well, there's never really a question about it.

After the bottom of the 7th last night, I'm glad Bama gets the last bat.

13318  Around Campus / The Quad / Re: "Jim Delany does a playoff 180, supports four best teams" TRUE! on: June 05, 2012, 09:25:45 PM
Delaney says he also wants the best 4 teams, but he is still speaking out of the side of his mouth.  He doesn't mean based on computer rankings or human polls, he means the "real" four best teams, which undoubtedly is picked by a select committee and includes the Big10 champion.
13319  Around Campus / The Quad / Re: Oklahoma vs. BAMA (CWWS): on: June 05, 2012, 08:41:29 PM
So when are we going to see Locke pitching?  Need to rest up the JTrain for tomorrow.
