"The buses were 100 yards away from the bomber."

That is highly unlikely, as the buses are parked on a street that is two-lane, but one-way. 20 yards, maybe? Maximum, that is.

Here is a post from an OU fan who posted this report on an OSU sports site. This person is not a kid, and I have always found his posts to be pretty level-headed, so I would put some credence in what he says. Everything that follows is what he wrote. Bolding is mine.

there is a story about it in the DO this morning....

I was at the game, it was really weird. Nobody in the stadium really knew what was happening.

It was nearing halftime and we all heard this really loud set of explosions, lasted anywhere from 5-10 seconds, which is pretty long when your talkin about explosions....

I could feel it, it kind of rocked the stadium. I knew it just wasnt me because everybody around me said they felt it too.

It created a very quiet buzz in the stadium, and lots of people were on their phones trying to find out what happened, and many people tried to leave but they locked down the stadium and couldnt leave. (I didnt try to leave, but at the time we didnt know it was a bomb).....

Sounded like something out of Iraq though, it was friggin loud.
