verandaman Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 ...that after UB, I am an Oklahoma "homer".....but OU Softball (three time defending National Champs) just won their 60th consecutive game. Say what you will, but that is pretty freaking amazing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verandaman Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 Up to 62....off to the west coast next weekend. 9-0 this year...to date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooklynBull Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Only about 50 behind the UConn women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verandaman Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 They will never touch the UConn WBB streak of 111....but it sure is fun watching them go about business. They're off to California this weekend for the Mary Nutter Classic. A weaker field this year since UCLA decided it was no fun losing to OU....but it's still 5 more games in three days (and a two time zone change).

verandaman Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 I saw this article today...I did not check it's accuracy, but suspect it is right overall. Where does historic Oklahoma softball winning streak rank among NCAA's all-time best? (stormininnorman.com) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verandaman Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 OU opens it's new Softball Facility today. Miami (OH) will be the first team to play there when they face OU in the Oklahoma Invitational today at 3:00EST on ESPN+. Love's Field will be the largest on campus softball facility in the NCAA, seating 4200 and expandable. Oklahoma will enter the game 14-0 for the year, on a 67 game winning streak.

I had seen the facility named Love Field someplace else the other day. Hopefully, you have the right name. The other place holds a dark place in American history.

verandaman Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 "Love's"....as in the gas stations out west (and elsewhere?) Although the score is currently tied, this is not a dark place 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verandaman Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 The only other Love Field I know is from the Southwest Airlines business case.....think Houston, Love Stamps, Go-Go Boots, and the birth of a new airline! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verandaman Posted March 2 Author Share Posted March 2 Miami (OH) put up the best fight yet....especially coming back for 4 runs in the 7th. Liberty didn't fair so well. 69-0. 2-0 @ Love's Field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bad....my time in business school was so long ago, I'm just pleased that I could remember that there was a Love Field in the Southwest business case.

verandaman Posted March 3 Author Share Posted March 3 All good things must end....sadly. If I'm going to rag on about how good OU WSB is, I need to be quick to pay respect to University of Louisiana and their starter, Chloe Riasetto for her complete game, extra inning win over Oklahoma. The streak is over....71 games. Fun ride. OU will likely drop one or two spots in the stndings even at 18-1, and three time defending champ. Look for a #3 ranking this week. Great game. Came back and tied in in the bottom of the 7th; but lost to the better team today. Boomer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UB77 Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Time to start a 72 game streak. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texas Tech will be tough this weekend in Lubbock....but as the great Buddy Holly said/sang...."that'll be the day"....a wonderful museum/spot to visit if you are ever in W Texas. There is a tree there planted by (?) Sir Paul McCartney.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
