Oklahoma Sooner Football Articles and Notes
Murray says he's fine: Popular speculation is that after five games [DeMarco] Murray still doesn't have 2007's to-the-house speed after undergoing surgery to repair a dislocated kneecap last winter. "I really don't want to talk about it," he reiterated. "I'm good. I'm ready to play." I know some plays haven't been there, but I find myself getting a little impatient at times and trying to break it and I miss the big one. I've just got to stop being impatient. It's going to come for me soon." Actually, through five games Murray has carried more times (85 attempts to 50) and for more yards (431-316) than a year ago, though his average per carry (5.1 yards) is down by almost a yard. He says he’s fine and that added strength and weight have made him a better between-the-tackles runner and a much better blocker. (Star-Telegram)
Nice gesture: [Mack] Brown is believed to be the first coach in series history to send flowers to his rival. He shipped a bouquet to Stoops and his wife, Carol, after the birth of their twin sons, Isaac and Jake, in 1999. The gesture caught Stoops by surprise. "I was sitting there thinking, 'I'm not supposed to like this guy.' So I like the man for about a week." (Dallas Morning News)
Backup QB remains a concern for Texas: Brown acknowledged Thursday that his team's chances would suffer greatly if starting quarterback Colt McCoy were to be injured. Brown said that the Longhorns would have to modify their offense if backups Chiles or Sherrod Harris were forced to replace McCoy. "John and Sherrod are both improving, but neither is where we want them to be," Brown said. "We're trying to be patient. We're trying to hang in there, but that's an area where we need to get better." (Austin American-Statesman)
