Since 1968, the OU Club of Houston has sponsored live radio broadcasts of Sooner football games. Again this year, the games can be heard live on KGOW-AM 1560, The Game. It's a tradition in Houston, much like the games themselves. In addition to the games, the OU Club broadcasts the entire pre-game show, beginning 90 minutes before kick-off, as well as the post-game and locker room shows. The Club also airs Sooner Sports Talk with Bob Stoops and Coaches Corner featuring OU assistant coaches, on Tuesday and Thursday evenings respectively, beginning at 7:05 p.m. But we couldn't broadcast the games and coaches' shows without your help. YOU - the many generous, dedicated individual and corporate sponsors - have made these local broadcasts possible. We continue to ask respectfully for your loyal support. There are two types of sponsorships available: Personal and Corporate. Personal Sponsorships: For donations of $25 to $99, your...
