Bradford Named National Offensive Player of the Week
Oklahoma Sooner Football Articles and Notes
Sam Bradford named Walter Camp player of the week: Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford has been named the national offensive player of the week by the Walter Camp Foundation. Bradford was honored for his play in OU's 51-13 win over Miami. The redshirt freshman from Oklahoma City completed 19-of-25 passes for 205 yards and a school record five touchdowns (tied) with no interceptions in Oklahoma's convincing non-conference victory. The TD passes tied a record for the most ever allowed by Miami. Just one week earlier, the Hurricanes' defense picked off four passes in a win over Marshall. Three of Bradford's touchdown throws went to Malcolm Kelly from 23, 24 and 30 yards. He also threw a six-yarder to Jermaine Gresham and a nine-yarder to Dane Zaslaw. Bradford hit his first four passes of the game to extend his string of consecutive completions to 22, an OU record and just two shy of the NCAA mark. (SoonerSports.com)
