The OU football team set to play Kansas State tomorrow afternoon in Manhattan, but the team is currently having trouble getting to the Sunflower State. According to our very own Dean Blevins, the plane the Sooners were supposed to fly on is experiencing engine problems. Here's Dean's social media reaction to what's happening.
#Sooners off routine. Supposed to have walk-thru practice @KSU by now. Rather, plane on Tarmac since 2:40 w engine probs. 6 hrs late! #OU

#OU team sked to leave OKC 5 hrs ago. No word when back up plane to arrive. Could've driven 2 Manhattan by now. Team deplaned. I'm on board

Unbelievably, the back up plane that was on its way to take #OU team to #KSU now has its own mechanical problems. No idea when we will leave

Gotta wonder if back-up plan 2 drive 2 Tuls or KSU isn't being discussed by #OU brass b/c pilot asst told me no idea when 2nd plane arriving

United pilot assistant tells me at he plane that had mechanical problems is leaving Houston for OKC in 5 mins. 1030 OKC depart my guess #OU

United pilot assistant felt assured plane passed inspection finally in Hou. My guess is #OU players in rooms around midnight. No walk thru
