(12/27) Oklahoma Holds First Fiesta Bowl Practice, Sumlin to Miami? and OU Articles

Oklahoma Sooner Football Articles and Notes

Sooners hold first practice in AZ: The No. 7 University of Oklahoma football team completed its first practice Tuesday at Pinnacle High School in preparation for the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. The Sooners practiced in full pads for two and one-half hours under the Arizona sun, working out the kinks of a holiday layoff in sunny, low 70-degree weather. "We (coaches), we're really pleased," OU head coach Bob Stoops said. "In full pads, we got after it in a physical way. The guys looked good. "I love it (in Arizona). Great area; beautiful weather -- we're excited about being here. Pinnacle High School has a beautiful practice field and game field area. The locker room area is perfect. It's wonderful." (SoonerSports.com Coverage)

Mike Stoops to pay a visit: During post-practice interviews, Sooner head coach Bob Stoops said Mike, his brother and the head coach at the University of Arizona, will be in town Wednesday. (Oklahoma Practice Notes)

UM looking at Sumlin? In Sunday's Miami Herald, passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach Kevin Sumlin was mentioned as a possible hire by new Miami coach Randy Shannon. Tuesday, Sumlin seemed surprised. "I don't know anything about it," Sumlin said. "There's speculation everywhere this time of year. It doesn't affect me at all. That's the first I've heard of it. There's just no story there." (Tulsa World)

Team to attend Insight.com bowl: Stoops also said his squad may attend the Insight.com Bowl, featuring Texas Tech and Minnesota on Dec. 27 at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Ariz. Tech is coached by former OU offensive coordinator Mike Leach. (Oklahoma Practice Notes)

Boise State focused on more than one Sooner: Broncos coach Chris Petersen said he's focused on more than one Sooners star. "I think the one thing that jumps out is that everyone wants to talk about their offense and Adrian Peterson," Petersen said. "You don't win championships, and certainly the championships that Oklahoma has won, without great defense. "I think everybody loves to talk about offense and scoring points. It takes nothing away from their offense, but they have a lot of guys that play on defense. They don't miss a beat when they put other guys in. It will be a great challenge for our guys."
