Red Raiders in Norman, Oklahoma!

About a month ago we decided we wanted to look for tickets to the Tech/ OU game and stumbled upon a great deal on ebay. BJ got home from Minnesota on Friday afternoon about 2pm and we headed out around 5. We stopped in Monday at his Dad's house to spend the night Friday night. We had a god visit with his Dad and Step-mom. We don't get to see them that often. Sat morning we got up and headed to OK city. Ate at a restaurant in Bricktown and then made our way to Norman!!
All of our tailgating friends met up at Colby Whitlock's (one of the Tech defensive linemen) uncle's house which was just a few blocks away from the stadium. They were so nice to us and welcomed all the Tech fans even though they were Sooners. I was impressed with the OU stadium/crowd.......I have been to College Station and Nebraska and never witnessed such a crazy loud crowd!! It was overwhelming for me in the stands. I cannot imagine how the guys down on the field felt.
The outcome of the game was not as we would have liked but it was a nice weekend get-a-way.
We are still so proud of the Red Raiders. 10 -1 and the season is far from over! We will be at the Baylor game, cheering loud and then rooting for the Okie State Pokes on Sat. evening! We can hope for the best!
