Bob Stoops on the K-State win:
Below is some of what coach Bob Stoops had to say about his team’s 58-35 win over Kansas State…
On the defense in the second half:
Yeah (we played better), but also in the first half we forced quite a few turnovers in short field a good number of times.
The defense was put on the short field a couple of times, too.
I think there were 11 different possessions where the offense got it in within 60 yards.
When that happens you’ve got a chance to score.
On Travis Lewis and Keenan Clayton:
I think they need to get better, but the more experience they get they’re going to keep getting better.
Travis stood out with 15 tackles, 2 INTs. Keenan stripping the ball.
I know they’ll continue to get better gaining experience.
Travis is a heck of an athlete.
On Austin Box’s first start:
He did OK. I think there’s more there. We expect him to play better and better. Again, I think it will be something ongoing.
On any injuries:
I don’t see anything right now that’s very significant.

Gresham high on NFL Draft list
Sam Bradford wasn’t the only Sooner to make ESPN’s Top 32 NFL Draft prospect list.
Junior tight end Jermaine Gresham is ranked as the top tight end and the No. 28 overall player eligible for the April draft.
“He has good hands and the ability to get open,” ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay told The Oklahoman. “I don’t have a great feel yet for what kind of speed he has. We’ll see when he runs this year or next year. I don’t think he’s Kellen Winslow. And there are a lot of really good tight ends in this draft. But everyone seems to have a drawback. He could have most complete package overall.”
