Oklahoma Sooner Football Articles and Notes
OU fan to stand trial after attacking Texas fan at Hudson's: A judge ordered a man Wednesday to stand trial on a felony assault charge after a bar confrontation that escalated from football trash-talking to a near castration. Allen Michael Beckett, 54, will be tried on a charge of aggravated assault and battery, Special Judge D. Fred Doak ruled. Beckett, a federal auditor and church deacon, is accused of tearing the scrotum of Brian Christopher Thomas, 35, in June. Thomas said he received more than 60 stitches and still endures pain, although there was no permanent damage. Thomas wore a University of Texas shirt into a bar popular with fans of the University of Oklahoma and said Beckett immediately taunted him. After about 20 minutes at a table, Thomas said he decided to leave and went to pay his tab at the bar when Beckett attacked him. "I turned around and he grabbed a hold of my testicles," Thomas said.

I think the OU guy is probably gay and got a little drunk and wanted some romance.

I am a hard core Sooner fan and that is a disgrace to the Sooner Nation. If it really did happen the way the Texas Fan described it, then the Sooner fan should be put in Jail indefinitely! There is no excuse for these kind of actions ! What a embarrassment to the rest of us Sooner fans! Get a life, you loser!
