Here's an interesting photo from the
OU Daily, an independent newspaper for OU Students.
The caption says:
Norman Fire Department members clean off debris from an explosion in the South Oval on campus
But clearly they are washing off a bus! Thus all the "bus" stories have at least a grain of truth in them. Hard to figure why an explosion that barely scorched the concrete around the bench it supposedly occured on, could throw "debris" (don't ask what sort) very far.
This photo from KOCO TV Channel 5 in OK City:

I've seen another photo of that same area (don't remember on which of many sites I've visited over the last couple of days).
It was taken from the opposite perspective (the pole at the back of this photo was as the front of the other). Probably a different time of day (the police tape was pulled loose from one of the corners making a 'triangle' rather than a rectangle, so maybe a different day, maybe before a cleaning crew, and with different lighting. In that photo there was a definite scorch mark/stain. It was pretty well defined and circular taking up about 1/4 or 1/5 of the concrete. Actually, I don't know what I expected to see, but it was kind of unimpressive or sad in some odd way that this was all there was. So the scene may have changed. Or one of both of the photos could have been altered. Dunno - but somewhere I've seen a photo that shows a scorch mark.
