berry, this is what i’m talking about from an earlier post with not liking all your posts. you’re questioning a championship head football coach. ticky tack stuff. all opinionated so readers respond and keep your blog sites in business so to speak. i bite!!!! we won the game big! who’s perfect! mizzou is not OU. osu is not OU. if pinkel kicks a fieldgoal then he does. stoops took the points. you can look at it both ways. and stoops took the yards over the down, trusting his defense. classic coaching. all coaches make decisions. and stoops will shake his slump january 8th. it’ll be fun to watch.

At least during the first half, I think Stoops blitzed too often, with little effect. Seems every time the Sooners blitzed, Daniels found a receiver. But if the secondary stayed back, Daniels had to hold the ball too long. The most fun was watching the Sooners rush only two.

I agree on the penalty. I like our D chances on 4th&1. that was a bad decision. also I think they should have gone for it on 4th&goal from the one. If you don’t make it then set defense up real well. Chance to score themselves or a very least setup next possession with short field. no real downside.

Stoops sportsmanship took a hit after Bradford was throwing bombs with a 30 point lead??? How odd, I thought Stoops was taking the BCS “high road”. Which is it Berry?

Maybe the stats tell otherwise but it looked like OU ran the ball the entire 2nd half…..do you really think Stoops was trying to run the score up? If Stoops wanted to run it up, Bradford would have ended up with 4-5 touchdowns and looked even better for the Heisman.

going for 60 was what the fans wanted and what the rest of the media needed to see. BOOMER SOONER

Did Stoops really accept that five-yard penalty? I thought it was a standard illegal motion, dead-ball foul, which mandates the five-yard walk-off. I saw the risk immediateley: Missouri had already converted two 3rd-and-longs that drive, and they put it in for an early TD.

If OU did accept the penalty, that was a huge mistake. Taking the three points on the opening drive was not.
