Yes. Although I try not to, I sometimes say "we" when I refer to OU.

I figure if I lived in Norman for 5 years, could see the stadium when I opened my front door, and gave thousands of dollars to the university of an education, I can say we.

It is kind of funny when I see a Miami fan living in New York or a USC fan living in Texas and they say we. Obviously people can root for whoever but if you have never even stepped foot on the campus at least try to refrain from acting like the university is a part of you.
