I heard from a friend that entire OU section (Staff, Ozone, Old Donors) were standing just about the whole game.  If this is true that send a message and I love it.

It looked like it on TV. I was in Nashville in '05 and the entire section (albeit smaller, did the same thing).

I wish the OU fans were on the other side of the court so we could see them on TV more, but you could definitely hear them cheering and chanting all game long.

We owned the arena last night.  It was like one big OU party for the whole game.  An impartial fan next to me said it best..."You've got a great team and great fans, even your cheerleaders and band are kicking ass."  But to say the whole Ohio section stood all game would be an overstatement.  An area did towards the back of the lower bowl (mostly students).  The bulk closer to the court stood at many key moments but not the whole game.

Then we owned Broadway St afterwards.

We also had a cluster of fans in the 106 section on the lower level that stood the whole time. We only sat during time outs. I was overwhelmed by our turn out. When we started chanting "We're Ohio", I got goose bumps! A great night to be a bobcat!

This is just a picture of our section in the lower deck. About half stood the whole time.

Yep, we stood the entire game.  Personally it was great to get a chance to do that.  At one point in the second half, there was a harmonic in the arena from the chant our crowd was making that set up a palpable vibration.  Very cool.
