OU looking for familiar faces to shine

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — If Oklahoma has its way, you’ll be hearing a lot about wide receiver Ryan Broyles and running back Mossis Madu Thursday night in the BCS national championship game.
If you’re familiar with Norman High football, that combination should be extremely familiar. It should sound like a Norman High game straight out of 2005.....more>>

A little smack talk never hurt
It’s hard to avoid in our soundbite culture and yet Dominique Franks has never been so famous (or infamous) in Sunshine State.
Offering what seemed to be a fairly thoughtful answer, Franks responded to a direct question with a direct response when he said Florida quarterback Tim Tebow might rank No. 4 among Big 12 conference QBs.
Is there a Heisman jinx?
MIAMI — It’s the most well-known individual prize in all of sports. There isn’t a more exclusive fraternity than the 72 men who’ve taken home the Heisman Trophy.
Tebow shakes off comments
If Florida quarterback Tim Tebow was offended by comments made by two Oklahoma defensive backs, he proved to be a pretty good poker player, too, Monday.
Sooners roll without their coach
If there ever was a time for Oklahoma coach Jeff Capel to call in sick, Monday was the day.
NEW: Tebow responds … sort of
If Florida quarterback Tim Tebow was offended by comments made by two Oklahoma defensive backs, he proved to be a pretty good poker player, too, Monday.
Bulletin board material?
You don’t see bulletin boards around college football teams much anymore. If Florida has one it will feature these remarks today.
Sooners do what they can
Are the fifth-ranked Oklahoma women ready for the Big 12 Conference? Good question, and Sunday afternoon at Lloyd Noble Center yielded no great answer, though the Sooners can hardly be blamed for that.
OU's defense under fire
The question was asked so many times Sunday morning that several of Oklahoma’s defensive players had to feel like parents sitting in a car during a long drive, the kids constantly asking, “Are we there yet?”
Stoops says he's staying put
“There’s no story. I’m not a candidate. This is the first I’ve heard about it,” the coach added. “Once it’s addressed with my guys it’s not an issue. My guys know that there’s a lot of stuff that’s said about me that isn’t true. There used to that.”
