BYU PROVES ME RIGHT

If you'll look down a few posts on this blog, you may notice that I made an entry during the first few minutes of the BYU/OU game last Saturday night.

I mentioned that with the way BYU was playing early, they had a great chance to not only make it close, but win. They were controlling the line of scrimmage and looked crisp and efficient on offense.

After Sam Bradford went down with a shoulder injury, their chances increased greatly, and the Cougars left Arlington with a huge win.

Sooner fans have been saying all week that if Bradford hadn't gotten hurt, that wouldn't have happened.

Well you know what? Bradford got hurt because OU's offensive line is inexperienced and was getting beat up by the BYU front seven. That's how you win games.

Plus, Bradford was having a hard time finding receivers - they're young and inexperienced, too.

And if you'll remember, I wrote an article a few months ago about why I thought Texas would win the Big 12 South over Oklahoma. Two things: OU's offensive line and WR inexperience.

The same two reasons they lost the season opener.

OU is a good program and will bounce back and probably win their bowl game, but every now and then the stars align just right (or wrong depending on your perspective) and it's just not your year.

Bradford should be making millions in the NFL right now.
