The OU football team has been stuck at Oklahoma City's Will Rogers World Airport this afternoon while waiting on an aircraft to take them to Manhattan, Kan. for Saturday afternoon's game against Kansas State.
The Sooners were scheduled to depart at 2:45 p.m Friday but were delayed due to a late-arriving plane. The team then boarded the plane only to have a mechanical issue result in another delay, according to multiple people in the team's traveling party.
Initially, the team was told another aircraft would be needed, which caused temporary uncertainty over when the plane would arrive in OKC or take off.
