OU vs. BYU
It's time for football, new TV shows, cool weather and milking Denny's waitresses. They may not be willing to oblige, but do what you must. If you get it out of them after September, you might as well be drinking goat milk.
OU vs BYU:
First let's start with how this game should have gone. BYU outplayed OU really the whole game. I know Bradford went out at the half, but he only had 96 yards passing. OU moved the ball better in the second half without him. So I propose that the score SHOULD have been 21-3. If BYU hadn't muffed the punt and thrown an interception at their own 20, OU would not have scored the TD and Field Goal. Add to that Chamber's fumble into the endzone and it seemed like BYU was TRYING to help OU win.
Now let's talk about how they DID win. BYU's D was awesome. OU was held to the least yards they've had in almost 3 years. Their two 1000 yard RBs managed barely 50 yards a piece, AND OU converted only 2-11 3rd downs! In order to win, BYU would have to keep the ball out the hands of OU's offense. BYU's winning drive, which included 2 3rd down conversions and an amazing no huddle 4th down conversion, took over 9 minutes capped off with the go ahead TD pass to Jacobsen in the end zone.
When Bradford returns, it will be interesting to see how this injury affects him the rest of the year, both mentally and physically. He's a fantastic quarterback, but coming back 100% from such an injury will be tough. It may even be possible that his first game back will be against Texas, a horrible opponent to return against. Right now, frankly, it's not looking good for the Sooners.
