That was a good win for the Big 12
It was hard cheering for the color orange though.
Can we hear some more talk about how superior the SEC is
Commercial... I would pick Va-Tech tonight over Alabama, but...
… VA-tech doesn’t do well away from home
The D-line does not seem to be doing so great
Is BYUs o-line a strength of their team?
.0128 > 45-35
You seem pretty sure
I’m not sure I can handle our season being over before it began. At least our defense still looks good, if only the offense wouldn’t keep giving the ball back to the other team.

Visiting from Addicted To Quack...
Horrible to see that. Hopefully Sam Bradford will be okay. Scary scary moment, hope he’ll be fine. Good luck in this game.
Addicted To Quack [dot] com; Six-hundred and ninety-four yards of total offense.
Wow
Hey guys, 3k from TurfShowTimes, the SBN community for the Rams. I’ll be checking in throughout the rest of the game to hear what the result is from that landing.
As an aside, I’m from Dallas; if you guys have a chance to make it there for the RRS vs. Texas, make sure you stop by Cowboys Stadium. It’s gorgeous.
As an impartial observer, I’m rooting for a benign result for Sam and for all of you. I hate injuries more than anything, and to see a talent like Sam Bradford go down not because of his play is unfair to the players, coaches and fans alike.
Your uncle molests collies.
Please God
NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

They haven't been bad in protection and blocking
Bradford hasn’t been sacked, Murray is averaging 5.7 ypc and Brown 4.8. Just the stupid penalties.
Any links?
I’d like to post this at TST

what was bradfords injury? Is he done for the game?
The Rivalry, Esq.
The quintessential Big Ten smoking room.
Yes, he is done for the game
Not for sure what the injury is but they said that x-ray’s were negative
Line lost it
O-Line was terrible.
BYU’s line was OK, not great but OK.
Sorry guys, better luck for rest of year.
Season is over guys
Well we waited a long time for this. Season’s over, when does basketball season start. Even Sam comes back we are not running table. Our receivers stink, and our o-line is really bad.
Andre Ware looks brilliant doesn’t he.
There was a firefight!!!!
From a Gator Fan, my thoughts and prayers go out to Sam Bradford
Maybe if you run the table the rest of the way you’ll have a chance. It wasn’t supposed to be like this, I wanted a rematch for National Championship.

Tough loss.
Hopefully Bradford will bounce back. You know, it’s a long season and anything is possible. Keep your heads up.
Look
We waited how ever many days since the Florida game for another chance and we choked, lost, collapsed whatever you want to call it. Our coach somehow persuaded three first round picks to comeback for the sole purpose of running the table and winning the national title. Its over. Our season was over in four hours. Even with Sam, I don’t see us beating Miami, much less Texas or Oklahoma State.
There was a firefight!!!!

I wonder if Bradford wishes he rethought going into last years draft
by TheUltimateBucFan on Sep 5, 2009 9:27 PM CDT reply actions
Stoops convinced him
I personally thought both (Gresham and Sam) should have left and Stoops some how convinced them both to comeback. He convinced them somehow because it was absolutely idiotic from a personal stand point to comeback. As a fan, I was ecstatic for them to comeback. If I were in their shoes I would left. They came back for a national championship and nothing else and that is gone out the window.
There was a firefight!!!!

Tough loss
but it was to a legit team at least. But as a fan of a Big Ten school, sorry to say, I couldn’t be happier for a Big 12 power to fall. I personally vastly underestimated all that WAC and Mormon speed. Apparently so did OU. Do hope Bradford’s alright though.
Great game fellas...
Best wishes to Bradford, Gresham and your team the rest of the season…

This Loss is on Venables and Stoops!!!
Time for a change? I don’t know yet. The playcalling has become horrible. Run, run,and run! I understand the whole smash mouth football plan with us wearing them down. Well with that being said it don’t work Stoops. A single win over us makes careers and programs successful. Stop the crap and start playing real college football!

Looks like what everyone said about OU was true.
No O-line, and w/o Bradford, no offense. Wow. Wish you guys would have been undefeated coming into Dallas. Thanks for nothing.
Now I just promised CC I would keep it family-like...
… you make it challenging. It’s not like we lost to UL-Monroe.
After letting this game settle and think about it for a little bit this is what I got
We had the exact same two major problems that hurt us in the National Title game last year.
First we couldn’t punch it in when we were inside the 5 yard line and just couldn’t get the stop when we absolutely needed too. Two very simple things that we just have came up short in our last two games.
You also can’t get on Wilson too much because what do you want him to do, let Landry, who hadn’t taken first team snaps since the spring, just fling it all over the place when really only Broyles and Caleb showed up?
I thought the defense played well but we really need to get just a little more pressure on the QB when just rushing four, and when we do rush four, we have to tighten up our coverage.
Also, those calling for a “change” at the top are insane and delusional. Remember what it was like in the 90’s when we were lucky to win 5 games? Stoops has the most wins as a head coach this decade, Wilson just last season had the most prolific offense in the history of the game. Getting rid of Stoops would be the absolute worst thing this program could do and would set them back into that 90’s slide we saw after Switzer left.

First of all that sucks about Bradford, really. We need you guys to rock it the rest of the year.
Second, don’t overlook that while OU didn’t play mistake free (penalties and turnover) neither did BYU. We fumbled on the 1 and a muffed punt led your your only TD. We also had 2 ints. So we were far from perfect.
Third, BYU, UTah, TCU in MWC. Boise is in the WAC.
