Yep, plus we have top classes coming in the next 2 years. 2 coming in next year, both ranked in the top ten overall players. 4 the next season 3 of them in the top 10 overall players. Gasso is killing it.
Yeah I understand that but she’s still got to make it appealing.. When the catcher is having to pop up out of her stance to get it then there’s a little bit of an issue.
They talked about Parker’s workout routine and how she uses the pool to get her heart rate up. Apparently, while pitching, they said it’s up to 170 bpm. Just conditioning I guess.
Seems like we’re a school of many talents this season… 2 nattys, national runners up in tennis, final 4 football, final 4 bball, final eight in men’s golf, and softball on the way to play for the natty(fingers crossed)
I realize that. I guess because we do not have a full grasp of what the long term affects are I would assume most athletes would not give this kind of once in a life time opportunity up. Few things matter more for most of these athletes.
True. It seems that recently these places are chosen as a means to help the local economy. But how often does it really help? Looking at past sites it appears the country gets an injection of money and then….. well that is it. A small injection.
This is probably a question to ask the announcers, I’m not quite sure where they stand on this subject… Seems like they think it’s a skill, not scummy. They’ve talked about it for like 3 freaking innings now

If Parker was well rested, I could see her shutting down Auburn. HOWEVER,, since she has tossed the past 3 games without a day off, Auburn will face a tired Paige Parker tonight in game #1—-and probably put some runs on the board….how well OU hitters respond to Auburns hurlers will probably determine the series winner. I think whichever team wins gm#1 , wins the series……..

Do not be fooled into thinking that because they are not great on D, they are not good hitters. They are on the field because they are good hitters, not defenders.
They pitch by committee, even though 2 of them have been the workhorses. Plus, their pitchers aren’t overpowering. They rely on the ball being put in play. That’s our game too, except Paige can absolutely dominate at times. I think we can pressure them into mistakes, just as we have the last 3/4 of the season.
Let’s just take a moment to acknowledge that we almost put 800 comments on a softball game thread! I love this board! It’s nice to know there are sooner fans out there who are passionate about all Ou sports like I am! Boomer freaking sooner and let’s get natty number 3!!
good insight ! there is always interest when OU has a program accomplishing something–as this softball team is doing….wonder what JC and Pete Hughes is thinking about the ‘state of the baseball program’ ?
OU came out unscathed in the tougher bracket that featured #2Michigan, #3 OU, #6 Bama, #10 LSU. AllBarn is #4, and they had #8 FSU, #12 UCLA, and #16 UGA. Iron sharpens iron, so hopefully we’ll be better prepared when we face AllBarn
EXCEPT , Parker has to be tired and Auburn catches her after 3 games without a day off for rest….OU’s offense needs a good game against the Auburn pitchers….
I thought we Gasso Gang would hang on and win, but I started falling asleep on the couch. Even though I couldn’t make, they did! Way to go OU SBallers! Take home the natty!

Over the past 5 or 6 years OU softball has become my 2nd favorite sport to watch. Never miss the girls play if they are anywhere on TV. So proud of what this team has accomplished this year and don’t think they are finished yet.

Oh good. Open post was starting to become the softball thread. Lol
Gonna need some snack crackers to stay up through all of this one. lol.
Welp…this could take a while.
Yep. Come on FSU, score a couple this inning and end it plz.
They’re getting a lot of hits off Auburn pitchers, someone is going to end it eventually.
Let’s get a W!
I really do despise LSU. On a molecular level.
Something I haven’t noticed is a starting lineup on Twitter. Wonder if that means we are going to see a different starting pitcher.
If that’s the case I’m guessing we’ll see Stevens. Nice to know that if we lose tonight we still get another game. It pays to be a winner.
Wish this game would end but it’s exciting I gotta say.
That is the game
Clear the field and let’s get going!
Looks like OU has two tigers to kill.
https://twitter.com/OU_Softball/status/739640497703026694
Hope we run rule so I can rest. 🙂
Starting lineup shows Parker gonna start.
Not surprised.
Yep
Cool. More confident in her, anyway.
https://twitter.com/UofOklahoma/status/739635729228140544
As long as Paker plays well, no reason OU shouldn’t win the whole thing. LSU and Auburn are good but OU is better.
I agree
sheesh… who here plans on staying up for the duration of this one?
Eh. I was probably going to be up all night, anyway.
Ah, to be young again…..
ME!!!
ME!!!
Giving it a go, but I won’t put it in writing.
Giving it a go, but I won’t put it in writing.

I know this is for football, but here it is anyway!!!
https://youtu.be/YO8NjUToIfs?list=PL0Vw-MYGvJfkLA2GDjbdXDNQw6qOL6-hm
I love a good tune!!!
lsu’srs 2nd game today? they’re toast
FSU played 2 games, as well and they took Aubie to extra innings.
yeah, just go with me on this eh? 😉 it’s our girls’ time
let’s do this!
Get it over in 5.
Visitors for the 2nd straight gane
Then get on the board early and put the pressure on LSU.
That’s the way to get started!!!
Nice start.
aren’t we seeded higher than the tigers? why are we visitors?
Because they have to beat us twice. We will be home if there is a second game.
weirdness i tell ya
They talk about OU’s hitting and pitching, but they also have the best defense in the country. Keep it going ladies!!
Damn
Dang
Timing is just a bit off so far.
Well that was fast.
Come on D!
Auburn was the higher seed and the home team in the game prior, why the F is OU the visiting team in this one?
First thing I said.
Dumb AF formula, whatever it is
https://twitter.com/OU_Softball/status/739649789831221249
Yep
https://twitter.com/OU_Softball/status/739649789831221249
whew, off the bat I thought that was out
Defense kept that to a single!
Big time
Good D keeping that a single.
Bell can hit ya’ll…
Oh good, another inconsistent strike zone.
I thought the exact same. If anything, pitch 2 was the ball, not 3.
At least they’re consistent about that. 🙂
Lots of low pitches in the dirt/close to the dirt early
Good D!!!
Just your routine 5-6-5 force out.
Nice play by Arnold!
Ouch
Dick slide.
It is LSU.
I expect nothing less.
Cajun tactics.
spikes up, really? dirty b-word
I don’t follow softball that close, is there a warning or something for players that do that?
That was the pitch we need to see tonight!
Yep – that was dirty
Leave em on base!
Bring on the bats ladies!
Too many pitches early.
Not having a really strong #2 pitcher could end up biting us before this is all said and done
One inning down
And it’s not even 10pm yet.
Ha
Paige looked a little ragged there.
Not worried about Parker yet.
No, she will get it going.
Nice lol
Runner on!
Way to go, Syd
Shes already my favorite player on this team
Syd, Shay, and Fale. All very good.
ugh
Man…really.
Dang, bad mistake.
Rules are killing this game.
we should be up 1-0
Thankfully LSU making their own mistakes.
true that.
Yeah Pendley!
Nicole!!!! nice!
I’ll take a triple.
She fast
damn, that w/h/b a 1-0 lead
YES!!! 1-0
Haha awesome!
HELL YES!
She should have skipped the butter on her popcorn. 🙂
My mind went right to the “popcorn trick”
Lol!
They weren’t kidding when they said LSU had issues on Defense.
Kady beats that out without a bobble. But the other plays were ugly.
Well, that is the end of the top, but at least we took the lead. 1-0
OUr bats are getting the timing down on this pitcher. Those OUts were contact OUts.
yOUr shift key seems to be functioning correctly. 🙂
SITDOWN!!!
Yes, ma’am.
Lefty U
Nice rise.
Work horse.
Stud”ette”
Ok.
Yeah, Romero!
Wodach is doing a great job of painting the plate.
Good pitch
STEEEEEEEEERIKE 3
Hellz yeah!
SITDOWN!!!
That’s how you do it.
Yuuuuuuuh!
I love Paige’s demeanor. Never rattled.
Boss!!!
Ain’t skeered.
Hell no. Didn’t know they’d had threads up.
Getting impressive post numbers also.
Yeah… I believe it. There were some epic posts in that 2013 run
And it’s a reason to drink..*cough*….
I got plenty of reasons now
She has that slinging Sammy demeanor.
Reminds me of Jackie Traina from Bama. She was also able to pitch this many games in a row without letting it get to her.
Do not use that name in here!!! 😉
Lol she did win a title. 😉
I would rather think of her as Kelaini 2.0 😉
The NCAA commercials make me giggle.
I hate LSU . And love softball….
It would be sweet to beat 3 SEC teams in winning this thing.
Let’s get some runs now.
Wow….
Okaaaaaay!
Make them pay
SEC = Still Evading Catches.
Just attempting that throw is totally bone-headed.
Yup
Yep, do it again plz.
After seeing that stat showing all the errors they’ve made this season, pretty good bet they will.
Ha!
Yup. Let them keep making dumb mistakes and we’ll take advantage of it.
Bunt to the third baseman all night. She’s rattled.
depending on where the runners are, yeah
I have a feeling the ball will continue to find her.
Lmao
HA! lsu rattled
Nice!
Still Evading Catches.
Yes, D strikes again for LSU!!!
I’ll allow that.
…
lovin it
Just put it in play. I’ll take unearned runs all night.
SEC ( Im not writing it out again )
Didn’t know their defense played offense for OU, too.
It continues!
Hit it hard and make them field. We got this.
keystone cops at this point
Way to go, Shay!!!!!!
It’s on!
Keep it rolling girls!
Woot!
Great hit!
ain’t gonna matter…
Much like football they got some crazy freaky athletes who do none headed things. Still dangerous.
Chased that pitcher right on to the dugout!!!
Sub in a new infield while you’re at it, coach.
Just swap the infield for the outfield. Ugh, NVM, that was an outfielder that tried to back up the second base. HA!
Right. FSU pulled their LF in the 7th after she messed up.
We know how that worked out. 🙂
True. Lol
We’ve got a tiger by the tail it’s plain to see……
Chased a ball there
They fielded one!
That was close to being safe.
Yes it was.
Our Freshmen make great contact.
All night long
Wow, and to think Bianca Bell is their star player.
In fielding, just don’t ask her to throw the ball?!
We’re connecting all night. Someone,maybe 2 someones, is gonna bomb one!
Lets go!
Slip it through the gap, nice.
These Frosh aint skared of nothin’
*skeered.
I sit corrected.
Score?
3-0
Getting it done!
Thanks
Damn. Good inning so far
With all these freshmen I guess we’ll just have to put up with this dominance for another three years…sigh..
Yep, plus we have top classes coming in the next 2 years. 2 coming in next year, both ranked in the top ten overall players. 4 the next season 3 of them in the top 10 overall players. Gasso is killing it.
Gasso Rocks
Shelby posted the links last night. Thank you again Shelby!
Np.
Also have the number 1 ranked player for ’19 committed.
Is she a pitcher?
End of the top. Nice hit, just snagged by the 2nd on the fly.
She stepped into it.
Hold.em ladies!
That was some dang good D!!!
I’m surprised Parker is pitching tonight instead of resting.
Walk her
Maybe not. 😉
lol yeah on second thought.
Thank God for a pop up.
Gotta love this defense
Sit down, Bell.
Jon Gray went 7 strong with 12 K’s tonight.
NIce!
He gets better every game. Bright future ahead of him.
Get her out, Park!
Giv’r the heat wild thang.
All those youngens in the stands wanting scholarships aren’t making a good case by moving out of the way of those foul balls!
Dang
damn
Dammit!
Dang it!
SON OF A BITCH!!!!!
Damnit. I had a feeling that crap was coming.
Hmm…bad call, coach
f*ck me
well.. that sucked
Good news is, Lester State still has the same defense.
What did I say about freak athletes?
That just makes me hate Les Miles even more.
1 strike away from 3-0. Damn.
LSU score?
Three times
Damn. They’re figuring it out.
Come on Paige, get out of this inning and let’s get the bats going
Pressure is nothing new to Parker. She can do it.
Maybe she can but Im not so sure I can.
Lsu is getting on base all night..keep up the d and keep the bats going and we’re in a good spot.
SITDOWN!!!
She outta there!
Time to respond!
is this good enough? 😉
Lol
Way to shrug it off and get the next one, Paige.
Gotta get the momentum back.
A game like this makes me wish we were the home team.
Let’s just bat a while here. Hang 3 or 4 more on the board. Make ’em play catch up all night.
Ty
Good eye Kady!
That works!!!
small ball
Safe!
Nice
Nice, and that was the bottom of the lineup.
Here is the bottom. Kelsey
Great bunt! Textbook
Well executed bunt.
Keep changing arm bands!
Is there a team that’s mastered the bunt as well as this OU softball team? I don’t think so.
double steal?
Major league teams don’t bunt as well as the Lady Sooners
a wee tad harder to do at that level
yeah just a bit.
Small ball all night
Little too much mustard on that bunt, but it gets the job done.
Time for a long ball
Wow, that contact was solid.
The crowd liked it.
That sounded good coming off Erin’s bat. Straighten that out, and we are in business!
We need a BOOM!
more please
Keep the pressure on!
There we go@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go Erin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Erin Erin Erin
Bring’em in girls!!!
Haha
Good stuff!
BOOM bitches!!!!
Do we have a new nickname! The Boom Bitches??
Works for me!!!!
I love Erin Miller.
Dustin and Erin sitting in a tree….
He loves everyone. 🙂
Not yOU. 😉
Except guys named Ray.
: x
If I was 10 years younger.
She is soooo shy and timid. /ssssssssss
hells yeah!
BOOM!
SHUKA-LUCKA!!!
Following from Costa Rica. Score Plz!
5-3
ty sir.
5-3, Sooners
5-3 OU
5 to 3 OU
LSU gonna run out of pitchers by the time we’re done with them.
Im ok with that.
What a team!!!
Tough as nails!
Amazonian…
Take no prisoners here Ladies! Keep up the pressure.
base hit scores another
Maybe more now.
You get a base, and you get a base!
And here comes All the Way Shay
Clutch
Long ball time
Good pitch
I don’t like her face.
A little crazy with the mascara.
Load them for Syd
This is definitely worth missing GoT for.
Thats what DVRs and replay days during the week are made for!
Had to cancel my recording of it. I’ll have to watch it on demand, I guess.
Make the OD service work for you!
Good contact by Knighten.
Solid contact
Paige come back out next inning?
Don’t see why not.
had the pen warming up last inning
Think that was more just in case, but we’ll see.
would hate to see someone else come out and not be effective
I’ve seen Kelsey getting work in the middle innings all post season.
And threw 142 pitches last night…
She’s pitched the entire WCWS so far.
Yeah…kinda worries me. Don’t want to wear her out! That said, Patty knows more about this than me!
From the way Gasso responded to Holly Rowe’s question about Paige’s fatigue, Paige isn’t leaving the game unless we are in a big mess
Hold it there longer. Maybe the ump will change her mind.
Hope that wasnt a beer
Probably a cheap beer.
Hahaha awesome
Add 1
BOOM!!!!
that’ll do
Awesome!
Yes, even the catcher has errors…….
Just don’t hit it at their 2nd baseman. She can catch.
She had some good hops on that one.
The Boom Bitches answer! Way to go ladies!
No.
uh, yeah… NO
Not cool!
Dude…delete that before one of the players’ father’s sees that classless post
Nothing is prob best but Boom Babes would be better
That was exactly the suggestion I would have made, or even better…”.the Sooners strike back”
There’s the 9 year old that someone was calling in for sleepy time.
All of these young ladies of our’s should not ever be classified as such. Grow up dude be more responsible. #BOOMER #RESPECT
Mid of the 4th, 6-3 OU.
Just dont let the leadoff hitter on again
We get it ESPN, they might have picked her pitches… Now please shut up.
It’s a testament to how profound the SEC is.
profound = pungent
No disagreement from me.
No, they were reading the calls from Melissa. That was the reason for the card change.
No bueno
don’t say Bueno this late, they’re still open
Thats why i was late to the game thread!
I love Bueno
Leave the mistakes to LSU, please.
Paige can’t control her rise ball right now, just like late last night. Gotta get that under control
Some of it is she’s trying to stay high & make them swing over it
Yeah I understand that but she’s still got to make it appealing.. When the catcher is having to pop up out of her stance to get it then there’s a little bit of an issue.
Come on, Parker!
I hope Kelaini is warming up
yOU may be a couple of seasons late. 😉
Jennifer Stewart
Keiter
stealing signs is their only chance, poor tigers
In the SEC, they call that honest competition.
take that cat lady
Nice D!
Arnold is a stud!
Awesome D
Fight fight
Hahahaha. Sweet defense! Keep reading those signs, coach.
Man I’m sure glad Loser State is stealing signs, it really helped them there
BS, that was OUt!
Damn. Close.
That’s an out
that looked out to me
It’s the SEC so they get a reprieve as long as it’s close
Easily almost by a stride
Paige is po’d
I would’ve given that call to Shay anyway for that awesome stretch! Being a former 1 bagger, I love to see the stretch.
Funny how when they say “it’s close” they mean, “out.”
She was out
No screen shot on that one, guys. Sorry.
ESecPN TV.
I’m on the wrong tv tonight.
Ditto
you shouldn’t be on the tv in the first place
Yeah…the view is MUCH better in front of it.
He has a radio face. 🙂
Thanks, Ray.
one more change up
Let’s go, Parker!
Smart play
Yep, very
170 bpm while pitching…dayum!
huh? missed the comment…
They talked about Parker’s workout routine and how she uses the pool to get her heart rate up. Apparently, while pitching, they said it’s up to 170 bpm. Just conditioning I guess.
dayum
My heart would explode if i managed to get it 170 bpm. Too much gravy in it.
C’mon, get that out.
1 strike now
SITDOWN!!!
Here we go!
Guess they missed the signal on that one
Didn’t see that coming, did you LSU?
lol
How’d the pitch picking work out for you right there, Loser State
They can suck it
Lol
Nice ca of off speed by the heifer at first
Oooohhhh……
Couldn’t have said it better myself
That coach needs a throat punch
Well now that seems rather rude and short-sighted – it doesn’t have to be the throat. A punch to the eye, jaw, pretty much anything would cut it
Haha. Yeah. I was just thinking it would shut her up
Let’s just go ahead and beat ’em, send ’em home. They can “SEC SEC SEC” all the way to Baton Rouge on the bus.
The Auburn coach was openly supporting LSU……reckon he thought LSU would be an easier opponent than OU in the finals ?
Probably so. That and all that pseudo conference loyalty bs they like to spew.
Way to close that out. Keep on working!
Need to get a really healthy lead this inning and maybe go to Stevens to give Paige some rest. A 7 or 8 run lead ought to do it.
They’re in for it now. They got JJ fired up.
Ha. That old bat from Michigan had me really fired up.
Truly I miss playing fast pitch… I won’t lie.
She looked like my 91 year old neighbor. So, I was calling her my neighbor’s name all night. My fiance was laughing her ass off. Good times.
So you’re the guy my grandmother complains about. 🙂
She loves me.
So you’re the guy my grandmother complains about. 🙂
I said she’s Kim Mulkey in 15 years…
Ouch. That’s rough.
Seriously. Crazy loudmouth Kim gonna look just like her
I fully expect Kim to iron her face within 15 years. She seems that vain.
Whoever mentioned she looked like Mack Brown’s twin sister, or Mack in drag had me rollin’.
Man, our softball game threads are getting to be nearly as brutal as football lol
success breeds it
432 comments on a softball thread. Who’d a thunk it?
I anticipate the softball threads to jncrease in size right up until we bring it home.
Except not as negative. Lol
Yeah – CWS is intense – I’m wore out
Dustin?
I’m tired.
two birds, one stone
if by brutal you mean awesome, then yes
We are a softball school ?
It makes for a nice off season.
It really does.
Word
Seems like we’re a school of many talents this season… 2 nattys, national runners up in tennis, final 4 football, final 4 bball, final eight in men’s golf, and softball on the way to play for the natty(fingers crossed)
I would love to see it for every game!
need to replace both tennis coaches now- JC has a busy off-season
I wonder if Gasso can coach tennis, too. Spring sports have a high bar to maintain.
She should coach our Men’s baseball team.
Fricking truth
She should coach our Men’s baseball team.
Thnx
Good cut
Im surprised this pitcher doesnt have bruised knuckles
Sooooo close to being a double!
a game of inches
a game of inches
How tall is this pitcher?
10’10”
6’2
Yikes.
6’2
5′ 14″
5′ 14″
Dang that would have been a back breaker! so close
Wow – almost caught chalk
Wow – almost caught chalk
Don’t show a replay Jack holes
Is that the bourbon talking? 🙂
No. I’d have said what I was really thinking
Don’t show a replay Jack holes
Nice, Pendley
Nice, Pendley
Good eye, Kady!
Good eye, Kady!
Wouldn’t hurt my feelings if they keep walking her.
lsu is all shook
We’ve gotta make them pay here! Need a little more insurance for Paige
We’ve gotta make them pay here! Need a little more insurance for Paige
Time for a long ball
I think I’d run on that arm behind the plate all night. That’s the 2nd time this WCWS I’ve seen her lob it down to 2nd on a steal.
is this girl pitching or bowling?
With how this OU team hits the ball, that is a recipe for disaster for this pitcher. Love it!!
Self has reached base all night!
wouldnt mind seeing a double steal here.
here we go
Come on Leah, square one of those up!
Lea*
I have to get up in like 5 hours. But, there is No way I am leaving this unfinished!!!
there you go.
yeah, me too- will be at work at 5:00
Hey, moved ’em over…..nice
Let’s go Erin
Long ball now
Erin Miller! Do the dang thing right here!!
That coach needs to shut her pie hole
So, question is but not the lsu player stepping in!?
Why does it seem to me that all of the sec coaches are whiney???
Because they are.
Sacks are juiced. Blood in the water and the BIG 12 Player of he Year is up. Make em pay!
Wow lol ty
Aww
And 1
Seriously
Good try, but it got the knob
Patti says “No way”
And for that she can win best supporting actress 🙂
lsu is wonky
Erin – base hit
swing away Merril
Let’s go Erin!
clap…clap…clap.clap.clap!!!!
She gonna lay down a bunt
$100?
Should’ve done it… Wide open pitcher can field with her funky delivery
I’ve seen apes with cleaner knuckles.
Exactly
She seems a bit on the trashy side. I mean that’s a huge chain thing she’s wearing
My little “zone” box needs some adjustment.
TMI
Hit it hard, just not at second base…..she can catch.
Darn
That hurts
Darn it!
Damn can’t leave Em loaded
Rats!
No worries, Paige got this!
She’s almost warmed up.
Don’t say that after the other night! yOU sir, never say the words NONO during a no hitter.
hopefully Paige is still gonna pitch mad
that sucked
yawn… sorry
Quit that.
Great D!
she is so damn good at short
Solid with the glove and a good, quick throw.
Some might even say SEC good
Kelsey was 100% during the season. Can not get any better than that!
isnt she the defensive player of the year?
yup
Yes, 0 errors!
She’ll improve on that next year.
One more, c’mon girls.
them knowing what pitch is coming is like us spotting them what? say, 3 runs?
Now that’s a good inning!!
that’s my kind of inning
Wow they know what’s coming and still can’t score.
She should just start calling out ” Here comes a rise ball” That’ll really embarrass them,
That would be so awesome!
Here’s the #2
I keep hearing all kinds of Bull Durham quotes
Batter up!
Let’s get some insurance…
no lizards or pale brunettes
Like a good neighbor?
We all have too many logos, and too many jingles burned into our subconscious.
Paige Parker, arm of steel!!
(Oscar, stomach of wine)
Parker is throwing some great pitches! Outstanding placement.
Uh.. damn. That was quick!
Six more outs to go
ok, commercial time question- if you’re an Olympic athlete, do you sit out Rio this year?
If I am a woman who is pregnant then, yes. Other wise no.
affects women who are of child bearing age
I realize that. I guess because we do not have a full grasp of what the long term affects are I would assume most athletes would not give this kind of once in a life time opportunity up. Few things matter more for most of these athletes.
Yes, but for more than zika. Water and crime come to mind…
just a risky deal all around
True. It seems that recently these places are chosen as a means to help the local economy. But how often does it really help? Looking at past sites it appears the country gets an injection of money and then….. well that is it. A small injection.
some venue(s) not even complete yet
Reminds me of China. Some of these countries just should not host. Many do not have the infrastructure to handle the demands.
their opening ceremonies were about the best I’d ever seen
True but the blue colored water, and the demands on the people were a little far out. But hey, whatever it takes to hide the pollution.
Don’t be skeered of skeeters.
Is it just me, or is the LSU coaches trying to call pitches, just scummy?
Its LSU…nuff said.
This
This is probably a question to ask the announcers, I’m not quite sure where they stand on this subject… Seems like they think it’s a skill, not scummy. They’ve talked about it for like 3 freaking innings now
It is. If this were baseball, someone would be getting one in the ear hole.
BEAN
def not just you
Even LSU knows OU is better than them.
they are who we thought they were
Time for a Knighten Knock!
Hopefully
You called it!!!
There you go!
Sweet!
Nice call.
Be here for the Ohio St game Ed.
Sorry, I am actually going to be AT the game! Tickets, Flights, Hotel all set.
bring a laptop
Called it – well done’
Welcome back!
Don’t suppose we could get you to call 2 no-hitters for Paige on Monday & Tuesday? 🙂
If Parker was well rested, I could see her shutting down Auburn. HOWEVER,, since she has tossed the past 3 games without a day off, Auburn will face a tired Paige Parker tonight in game #1—-and probably put some runs on the board….how well OU hitters respond to Auburns hurlers will probably determine the series winner. I think whichever team wins gm#1 , wins the series……..
Who’s making the coffee?
“All the way Shay”
GOOOOOOONE!!
About time! SHAY!
ShAAAAY!!!!!
Shay with the insurance!!!!!!!!!
Yard!!!
de we go…!
yard? yes
She got her money’s worth
Okay, Knighten came through. Let’s see Back to Back Jacks!
Hey Ed, try it again here since it worked out for Shay
70 mph coming in, a whole lot more going out!
thats what she said
Both times?
Yes, but she screamed it the 2nd time.
Hahaha!
Good eye Syd!
Base hit time!
Fale is due a hit
SHe has to come with something good here. Just smack it hard!
I love this pitcher
Good eye, Fale!
This pitcher is very generous.
Someone should tell her that her mascara is running. 🙂
that was a chocolate bar
She looks like the wild type
warm up the bus, warm up the bus
617 and counting…nice!
Wild Thing, you make my heart sing. 6 walks and a HBP for this pitcher in two innings.
It’s time for a long ride!
Pendley wants to hit this one hard….WATCH!!
Let’s go Nicole!
clap…clap…clap.clap.clap
i like the number 8, let’s bring in another
Surprised she didn’t throw that ball into LF
WP and steal home!
Okay, time for a wild pitch or passed ball. Hey, why not?
If Auburn knows what Paige will be throwing it could get scary
IQ required
Isn’t doing LSU much good.
Yeah but its LSU
Do not be fooled into thinking that because they are not great on D, they are not good hitters. They are on the field because they are good hitters, not defenders.
And freaky athletic
SEC all the same.
They made it to the semi they, must be pretty good.
Oh I know theyre good. I just saw an opportunity to put down LSU
For that sir I applaud.
Always good to beat the SEC regardless of the sport. Alabama and LSU inside of a few days would do nicely!
They’ll change up something. If nothing else dugouts.
From what I’ve seen this WCWS, our bats should be able to make up for any edge they get from pitch recon.
Auburns offense is legit. They actually score more than we do.
I know. But their fielding isnt on our level. We should be able to cut their run production just by being solid fundamentally.
They also don’t have an ace pitcher.
They pitch by committee, even though 2 of them have been the workhorses. Plus, their pitchers aren’t overpowering. They rely on the ball being put in play. That’s our game too, except Paige can absolutely dominate at times. I think we can pressure them into mistakes, just as we have the last 3/4 of the season.
Not worried.. Auburn isn’t ready for this team, they can just ask their rivals from Tuscaloosa what this team does to teams from Alabama
Let’s go defense!
Good to see us tack on another run.
I don’t like Landry – dirty slide into 3rd base
Second time we’re playing one game in two days.
Yeah – it’s a good thing my first meeting isn’t until 10:00
https://twitter.com/NCAAsoftball/status/739683576996761600
Sweet!
that girl is crazy good. And she is a baby freshman.
Just got on. Sounds like we’re doing well. Could someone shoot me a score update?
Cavs did terrible.
It is always a great day in the CAV!
Arizona?
7-3 OU
Thanks. Appreciate it. Trying to catch up.
10 minus 3 to 1 plus 2
Thanks. I was able to interpret even given the current time.
You cheated. You looked one post above.
Adapt and overcome. If you ain’t cheatin’ you ain’t tryin’
https://twitter.com/OU_Softball/status/739680731882872832
it. is. monday.
Happy Monday to you Bear!
u 2
Oh, plz do not remind me that I have to get up in 4.5 hours. 🙂
Ha. I didn’t even notice!
Knighten getting it done!
I wonder if the LSU fans that came to OKC are throwing urine and beer, and chanting f*** you Paige. Just to be consistant.
they’re still looking for the ballpark
Maybe they’re at least smart enough to realize they are grossly outnumbered here.
Neaux class.
This is crazy. How many comments will this board get? Why would TFB even bother with a Texas site?
They are passionate about longhorn football.
The fan base is not when it comes to TFB. My gosh we get posts on daily news than they do for an actual game.
Thats funny. We get more posts for softball than they do for football.
All Knight(en)!!!!
Easy.
Great inning for Parker.
It was? I missed it. Im too busy trying to keep up with the posts.
Parker is a beast. She’s been so clutch
Deja Vu…quick inning
Get some runs
Now lets add a couple more and take away any hope they may still have.
What an odd commercial for the WCWS…
is it me or does OU as a squad just look to be a lot more cohesive and confident than the teams they’ve faced so far- a lot more composed
Agreed. Auburn looks similar
It was interesting watching that FSU game.
Theyre too young to get nervous. They dont know better.
And they are pretty seasoned. Their travel teams all play national level competition. Nothing new for them.
It’s kinda like a 6a team playing a 3 or 4a school. Even the Fr look more mature than upper classmen from other schools
Nice!
Way to go Kelsey!
and… purpose of the backwards K?
Looking
ok
Strikeout looking
Clifton is due! Give it a ride!
What time do the doughnut shops open?
You should probably have a bran muffin.
Do they have raisins?
I want to see you two on a reality show.
He would get kicked off the island.
doughnut shops?
Not for you.
DEFENSE, DEFENSE, …
Ok Paige finish this up
3 outs! Let’s go Paige!
3 more outs
I can’t handle another bottom 7 like last night so please finish this as quickly as possible!
Up to the defense for a chance at the Ship!
game should already be over were OU the home seed as they s/h/b
Did they flip so we would have been home in the if necessary game?
for real. Oh well no matter what they do to us we gonna get that natty.
I would think it’s not a violation or Patty wouldn’t have let her go back to Norman. Anyone know for sure?
She’s all over the box
wrong channel jj
It’s late night tv.
Softball after midnight
Great Film
Crap!!
Kinky.
Haha love it
Paige can smell it
She got this!
Lsu coach can’t believe her calls aren’t working
She’ll probably protest the game because OU adjusted.
Come on, Paige. Finish her!
Nice cheap shot there lsu
Cheap ass bullsh–
How chickensh$t was that!!!
1st baseman’s fault
Extending her arms wasn’t on shay…
She was just trying to draw the call.
The bad part is she DID draw the call. She was just so stupid, she didn’t know to keep running.
There was no way she was going to 2nd. That was chickensh$t!
still have to clear
I understand, I coached for several years. Still chickensh$t in my book.
Especially when she clearly altered her path to run into her. Trying to LeBron her way to 2nd.
And dumb. Keep running if you’re gonna do it!
Really?
Double play here
LSU worse than Oregon.
O/U on final pitch count?
off-speed time
Double play baby!
Nice call!
You got it!
Has anyone besides Paige pitched in the postseason?
No
Nope.
no
I wish someone would tell us
I know!!
I got your back buddy… Fluent sarcasm
Thanks. I left my sign in the other room.
Has anyone said “no” yet?
No
No
Damn
Ugh….another nail biting Bot 7th…
GREAT D
Double play baby!!
Good call!!!!!!
LETS GOOOOOO
Way to call the Double play!!!!!!!
!!Confetti Toss!!
BOOMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOONER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOONER!!!
BOOMER!
SOONER!!
SOONER!!!!!
BOOMER!!!!!!!!
SOONER!!!!!!!!
Ball game!!
Goodbye, LSU, and thanks for all the fish!
Bianca who? Pfft
BOOMER!
30 consecutive wins. New School Record!
32 Monday.
I think, mathematically, that is improbable. 31 more than likely. 32 on Tuesday.
I’ll take it.
Me too!
WE’RE GOIN TO THE SHIP!
Don’t slide into 1st base, kids.
BOOMER!
SOONER!!!!
Boomer Sooner!!
Damn, I wanted to get to 1000 comments. 🙂
type away
Going to bed.
I need to. Now I am to excited.
Next game will do it.
7 PM tomorrow. Be here or be somewhere else.
Good night – lets do it again tomorrow
you mean later today.
At least it’s a 7 o’clock start!
The late starts have worked well for us though
Certainly can’t argue with the results so far!
Thats a record on wins in a row, right?
Yep, that’s 30
Yes, 30 straight
Good Girls win – well played. Shut eye time… G’Night.
See ya tomorrow
Good night my fellow Sooners. It has been real. I will see you all here Monday. Boomer!
SOONER!
Great win! Two more to go!
Good night TFBers!!! Talk to you soon. Looking forward to seeing us push for the natty!
Football final 4 Basketball final 4 Mens gymnastics NC Womens gymnastics NC Softball finals at least. This borders on ridiculous.
Always Nice to see Sooners acting like Sooners!
Mens tennis Finals
I knew I forgot something.
Men’s golf made the final 8.
Let’s just take a moment to acknowledge that we almost put 800 comments on a softball game thread! I love this board! It’s nice to know there are sooner fans out there who are passionate about all Ou sports like I am! Boomer freaking sooner and let’s get natty number 3!!
816
Hadn’t refreshed yet by the time I posted, but you get the point
good insight ! there is always interest when OU has a program accomplishing something–as this softball team is doing….wonder what JC and Pete Hughes is thinking about the ‘state of the baseball program’ ?
Big time! This is why Oklahoma remains synonymous with championships.
G-nite all, Great win!!! I may be tired tomorrow, but I will be amped for tomorrow night.
OU came out unscathed in the tougher bracket that featured #2Michigan, #3 OU, #6 Bama, #10 LSU. AllBarn is #4, and they had #8 FSU, #12 UCLA, and #16 UGA. Iron sharpens iron, so hopefully we’ll be better prepared when we face AllBarn
If Parker keeps doing what she’s doing, OU wins.
Those gals are gonna kick Auburn right in the ass.
EXCEPT , Parker has to be tired and Auburn catches her after 3 games without a day off for rest….OU’s offense needs a good game against the Auburn pitchers….
Great way to start the week! Nite all.
Good night Fear
Ought to be a great series between us and Auburn. See you all tomorrow night!
got to get to 850
got to get to 850

AWESOME way to wake up
BOOMER SOONER
it was a great game. Now just 2 more and we take another trophy home.
I thought we Gasso Gang would hang on and win, but I started falling asleep on the couch. Even though I couldn’t make, they did! Way to go OU SBallers! Take home the natty!
Done and done.
Good morning. It’s Monday. Has the Sooner softball team kicked anybody’s a$$ yet today?
The a$$ kicking is scheduled to start at 7pm tonight.
Over the past 5 or 6 years OU softball has become my 2nd favorite sport to watch. Never miss the girls play if they are anywhere on TV. So proud of what this team has accomplished this year and don’t think they are finished yet.
