HOME WINNING STREAK AT 33
Oklahoma has won its last 35 home games, a school record. The streak, the longest current string of home field success in the nation, began on Sept. 1, 2005 with a 31-15 victory over Tulsa. Here is a look at some of the accomplishments that occurred during that time:

It is the 14th-longest streak in NCAA history, but it should be noted that seven of the top 13 streaks ended before 1920. The OU streak ranks No. 7 since WWII and is the longest since USC's streak of 36, which ended in 2007. Just ahead of USC is Florida State, which won 37 in a row from 1992-2001. Miami holds the record at 58 from 1985-94.

The Sooners have outscored their opponents by 1,047 points -- 1,562 to 515, an average score of 44.6 to 14.7.

Oklahoma scored 50+ points, 12 times, 60+ five and a high of 79 vs. North Texas in 2007 opener, Sam Bradford's first game.

The low Oklahoma scoring total was 24 points twice.

Oklahoma's defense has posted five shutouts and held the foe to single digits eight times.

Eighteen Sooners who played during the streak were taken in the NFL Draft.

RECORD-SETTING ATTENDANCE
Oklahoma has drawn 5,801,708 fans for Bob Stoops' 73- home games (started in 1999) and all have been sold out.

The Sooners are 71-2 on Owen Field under Stoops and have won 35 straight, a school record and the nation's longest current streak.

The current string of sellouts is the longest in school history, bettering a string of 69 from 1971-84.

The average home attendance of 85,075 in 2008 was a school record. The top nine seasons for football attendance at Oklahoma came on Stoops' watch.

The largest home crowd in school history was 85,646, on hand for the 2008 OU-Texas Tech game.

Oklahoma has exceeded its listed seating capacity of 82,112 at Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium in 46 consecutive home games.

Oklahoma has played before sellout crowds in 126 of the 155 games (home, away, neutral) since Stoops became the head coach. During that time, a total of 10,561,256 (average of 68,137) have watched the Sooners.

Oklahoma Sets Attendance Records at Memorial Stadium

OFFENSE NOTES

Under Stoops, OU produced career leaders in passing and receiving, its No. 3 & No. 5 career rushers and season record holders in rushing, passing and receiving yards.

Some 63 OU offensive marks have been set under Stoops.

OU has scored in every game since Nov. 7, 1998. That's a string of 157 games, which is the fifth-longest active string and the 20th-longest of all-time.

OU has rushed for 200 yards 45 times under Stoops.

Also under Stoops, OU has 153 touchdowns of 25+ yards and 311 scoring drives of 2:00 or less.

OU is the highest scoring program in college football history. In 1,163 games, the Sooners have scored 31,174 points. Michigan has 30,262 points in 1,221 games and Nebraska 30,187 in 1,227.

DEMARC-ABLE
It has been a record-breaking season for DeMarco Murray. At Texas A&M, he broke Joe Washington's 35-year-old OU career mark for all purpose yards, and against Iowa State, he took down Steve Owens' 41-year-old mark for career touchdowns (see left column for numbers).

Murray is only the second player in Oklahoma history to surpass 1,000 yards in three categories: He has 3,303 rushing yards, 136 receptions for 1,335 receiving yards and 1,462 return yards. His all-purpose total is 5,849. George “Buster” Rhymes (1980-84) is the only other Sooner to accomplish the feat with 1,158 rushing yards, 1,118 receiving yards and 1,237 kick return yards. Rhymes finished with 3,800 all-purpose yards.

Murray is No. 2 for receptions (136) and receiving yards (1,335) by an OU back. Quentin Griffin (1999-02) leads both categories with 169 for 1,337 yards.

Murray leads all OU backs in career TD catches with 11.

Murray's has cracked OU's prestigious top-10 list for career rushing. Despite a pair of Heisman-winning QBs during the same era, three of the other backs currently on that list played under Bob Stoops -- Adrian Peterson, Quentin Griffin and Chris Brown.

RYAN'S HOPE
Ryan Broyles has tied Mark Clayton's OU career record for receptions at 221. He needs four to reach 90 for the season and eclipse his own school mark of 89.

His 2,884 career receiving yards rank No. 7 in Big 12 history, while his 221 receptions rank No. 10,

He caught nine passes for a school record 208 yards vs. Colorado. He had TD grabs of 16, 81 and 64 yards in that game. The 81-yarder was the longest pass play of the Bob Stoops era, the eighth-longest in school history.

He has 100 or more yards receiving in 10 of the last 12 games. He has a touchdown grab in nine of the last 13.

He ranks No. 1 in the nation in receptions per game at 9.56 and No. 3 in receiving yards per game at 119.7.

Against Iowa State, he broke his own school record for receptions in a game with 15. He tied the mark in the first half of that game with 13.

KEEPING UP WITH JONES
QB Landry Jones has eight 300-yard passing games in 18 starts. He had a season-high 452 passing yards against Colorado. He is now No. 3 in 300-yard games at OU. Sam Bradford and Josh Heupel, Jones' position coach, hold the record jointly at 14.

Against Iowa State, he fell one completion shy of tying the NCAA record for completion percentage in a game (min. 30 att.). He was 30-of-34 for 88.2%. The record was set by BYU's Steve Sarkesian, who was 31-of-34 against Fresno State in 1995.

The sophomore had career-best consecutive completion streaks of 13 against both Cincinnati and Iowa State.

Since opening the season against Utah State by going 17-of-36 (.472) for 217 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions, he has completed 246-of-361 (.681) for 2,620 yards with 20 touchdowns and four INTs.

The soph threw for 321 yards in the first half of the Florida State game (380 total against the Seminoles), the second-best one-half total in school history.

Jones set a personal best with 36 completions (out of 51 attempts) at Cincinnati and Texas A&M.

Jones completed at least 50% in 20 of 21 career games.

FRESHMEN CATCHING ON

Kenny Stills is one of the most prolific freshman receivers in OU history. For all freshmen, including redshirts, he ranks No. 4 with 36 catches, 12 behind the record of 48 set by Ryan Broyles. Mark Clayton had 46 and Antwone Savage 37. Savage holds the mark for true frosh.

In his first start, at Texas A&M, true freshman Trey Franks eight receptions for 66 yards and one touchdown.

TAPPING IN TO THE TIGHT ENDS

James Hanna now has a touchdown reception in four of the last five games.

Trent Ratterree caught three passes for a career-high 89 yards in the most recent home game against Colorado.

RETURN OF THE FULLBACK
True freshman Trey Millard has 20 rushes for 60 yards and one TD, and 11 receptions for another 97 and one TD. That's more rushes and rushing yards than any OU fullback since Seth Littrell had 24 attempts for 78 yards in 2000. It's the most receptions and receiving yards since J.D. Runnells had 20 for 205 in 2005.

LINES ON THE LINE

After finishing 2009 with only eight healthy scholarship linemen, there are 16 on this roster.

The current depth chart features just two seniors in tackle Eric Mensik and guard Brian Lepak. Despite the relative youth of the line, the current two-deep includes players who have combined to play in 149 games.

Two of Oklahoma's offensive linemen are converted tight ends -- T Eric Mensik and G Gabe Ikard.

Eight players have started in the line this season.

DEFENSE NOTES

OU has forced at least one turnover in 136 of Stoops' 154 games and has at least one interception in 99 of the last 134 with multiple picks in 49 of the last 105 outings.

Oklahoma has 13 shutouts under its current head coach. Opponents failed to score more than seven points 33 times and scored less than 14 in 61 games.

LEWIS IS LEADING TACKLER
Weakside linebacker Travis Lewis has led Oklahoma in tackles in each of his first two seasons. His 109 last season were 21 more than any other player on the team. He leads the 2010 with 80 and had a season-high 14 vs. Iowa State.

Lewis, with 333 tackles (the second-highest total by a Bob Stoops player at OU), is making a run at the prestigious career top-10 tackle list at OU. The record is held by the late Daryl Hunt at 530. The No. 10 spot belongs to Lee Roy Selmon at 335.

Tracking down big names is nothing new for Lewis. As a freshman in 2007, he racked up 144 tackles to break Brian Bosworth's Oklahoma freshman record of 133.

Has double-digit tackles in 14 of 32 career games.

Lewis is trying to become only the sixth player in school history (tackles tracked since 1970) to lead Oklahoma in tackles for three straight seasons. The last to do it was Butkus Award winner Rocky Calmus from 1999-01.

THE REAL DEAL
Defensive end Jeremy Beal looks like a candidate to become Oklahoma's first Ted Hendricks Award winner. He has 13.5 tackles for loss (No. 15 nationally) and 6.0 sacks.

Leads the Big 12 in sacks and tackles for loss.

His 11 sacks last season rank No. 4 for a season at OU.

The senior ranks No. 2 at Oklahoma for sacks in a career with 26.5. He is moving up the top-10 list for tackles for loss. He has 52.5, which ranks No. 3. Kelly Gregg is No. 2 at 53 with Rocky Calmus No. 1 at 59.

Beal had four tackles for loss at Missouri, a career-high, and just two shy of Cedric Jones' school record.

He leads this team in fumbles forced with three.

Beal is the only player in school history to notch two, three-sack games in the same year. He had three each against Tulsa and Miami last season.

Nearly one-third of his career tackles have taken place behind the line of scrimmage. Beal has at least one tackle for loss in seven of nine games this season.

Jeremy Beal's 2010 Video Series

FLEMING IMPRESSIVE
Cornerback Jamell Fleming leads Oklahoma with four interceptions and nine break-ups, and leads the Big 12 with 13 passes defended. That's even more impressive considering he missed all of one game (Texas) due to injury. The junior from Arlington, Texas, is No. 5 on the team with 50 tackles.

NELSON EQUALS TACKLE TOTAL
With 73 tackles on the season, a total that ranks No. 2 on the team, safety Jonathan Nelson has eclipsed his total over the first three years of his career (53). He equaled his career-high for a single game with 11 at Missouri and Texas A&M. Nelson also has one interception, six break-ups and two fumbles forced this season.

Jonathan Nelson's 2010 Video Series

PASSES BROKEN UP BY
... Almost everyone this season. With 47 break-ups, the Sooners are positioned to have one of their best seasons in that category. Over the previous seven seasons, the best total at Oklahoma was 61 (twice). With an average of five per game, this Sooner team will threaten that mark. The school record was set in 2000 with an incredible 110. Last year's team had 45.

The Sooners had a season-high 11 deflections against Colorado.

The team leader in pass break-ups is CB Jamell Fleming, who is in his first year as a starter and has missed one game due to injury, with nine. He ranks No. 1 in the Big 12 in that statistic.

COMPLETION PERCENTAGE DOWN
Despite the pass-happy nature of college football, only once under Bob Stoops has a Sooner team finished the team allowing a 60% completion rate. This team is excelling in that area at just 54.8%. Three Sooner opponents fell under the 50% mark.

SPECIAL TEAMS NOTES

Oklahoma's special teams under Bob Stoops ...

There have been 27 special teams touchdowns.

OU has returned eight kickoffs and 16 punts for TDs.

The Sooners have blocked 26 kicks.

MANY HAPPY RETURNS
Information on returns during the Stoops era ...

Kickoff Returns -- 100 returns of 25 or more yards, 8 TD.

Punt Returns -- 64 returns of 15 or more yards, 16 TD.

Interception Returns -- 84 returns of 10 or more yards with 21 touchdowns.

Fumble Returns -- six returns of 15 or more yards with eight touchdowns.

BIG RUN BACKS RECENTLY
Oklahoma had been uncharacteristically quiet in its return games until the last few weeks. It started with Mossis Madu's 77-yard kickoff return at Missouri. Then DeMarco Murray broke free on a 48-yard return at Texas A&M, while Ryan Broyles reeled off a 31-yard punt return against the Aggies.

The longest kickoff return (Madu, 77) and the longest punt return (Broyles, 31) of the season have come over the last four games, and both occurred on the road.

PUNT COVER TEAM A STONE WALL
Last season, Sooner foes ran back 17 punts for a paltry 30 yards. That 1.76-yard average ranked No. 2 nationally. The numbers are similar this season. The opponents have 17 returns for 45 yards, an average of 2.65 yards. That figure ranks No. 4 nationally.

OU was No. 5 in net punting at 40.3 yards last season, and is No. 10 this year at 39.83.

The longest punt return OU surrendered last season was 19 yards. No other punt return exceeded six yards. This year there was one return of 25 and another of 15, but otherwise none that exceeded six. Four opponents have finished the game with negative punt return yards against OU this season.

The bugaboo has been kickoff returns. The Sooners have surrendered two for touchdowns this season, seven over the last three campaigns combined.

The Sooners have two blocked punts this season for safeties -- vs. Colorado and Texas A&M.

WAY GOOD AT PUNTER
P Tress Way had arguably the best season ever for an OU punter in 2009, and was just a redshirt freshman. He punted 61 times for an average of 45.7 yards with 22 of 50+ yards and 17 inside the 20.

Way's '09 average ranked No. 1 in the Big 12 and No. 3 nationally. It also was the second-best average in OU history, the best by a punter with at least 35 attempts.

He averaged a school-record 58.8 yards on six punts vs. Oklahoma St., including a 74-yarder.

Way, a soph, has 31 kicks of 50+ yards in his career. Jeff Ferguson (1998-01) set that OU record with 52.

In 2010, Way has 11 of 50 or more yards and with 12 inside the 20 and an average of 43.3 yards on 48 kicks.

KICKING DUTIES SPLIT
Jimmy Stevens is handling extra points and short-distance field goals, while Patrick O'Hara is getting the call on long-distance field goals. Stevens is 6-of-8 this season on field goals with a long of 42 at Cincinnati. O'Hara, who has shared kickoff duties with Tress Way, is 4-of-6 with a long of 45 at Texas A&M.

WINCHESTER RIFLES TO STARDOM
James Winchester, long-snapper for Oklahoma's punts, Now has three fumble recoveries on punt coverage this season. Those three recoveries lead all Big 12 players and tie with 20 others for the NCAA lead.

He recovered the game-securing fumble late in the win over Texas.

He pounced on one at Cincinnati that set up the game-securing touchdown

He recovered a muffed punt at Missouri that the Sooner offense converted into a touchdown.

His dad, Mike, was OU's punter from 1984-85 and his sister, Carolyn, was on the Sooner women's basketball team from 2006-09. A younger sister, Rebecca, is a sophomore on OU's Rowing team.
