The Voice of the Sooners, Toby Rowland, sets the scene for OU's Big 12 opener vs. the West Virginia Mountaineers.
Toby Rowland, Dusty Dvoracek and Teddy Lehman give their keys to victory for the Sooners vs. West Virginia.
This Saturday against West Virginia, Stripe the Stadium returns to Oklahoma! Fans sitting in odd numbered sections should wear white, while fans in even numbered sections and students should wear crimson.
The Sooners were impressive in all facets of the game as they posted a 34-0 victory over ULM on Saturday. Now they look forward to Saturday's Big 12 showdown with West Virginia.
On Trevor Knight...
“He is a great leader. Players realize how hard he works. He's a great teammate. He's a bright kid, so he's got respect. No question."
The OU offense came out with a little different look in the season opener, and the RBs and O-line are two groups happy to be carrying more of the load.
On implementing the zone read...
"I don't if it was trying. Our guys loved it and they are excited about it, it is something different. I think you learn a little bit as you go, as well. What works and what doesn't. We are continuing to get better at it."
On defensive flexibility...
“I think we have a lot of flexibility. We can go a lot of different ways. We're going to continue to change our package week-to-week, and it's built off a lot of the same principles, but different angles, different people, different alignments."
On shutting out ULM:
“It feels great; It's a confidence booster. But at the same time, one win or one loss doesn't define you as a team or a defense... We are encouraged by the win but we have to continue moving forward."
On depth at RB...
“I think it is just really made for the run game this year. We were a little bit more pass-oriented last year. But that's not going to be the case."
On shutting out ULM:
“We went into there knowing that we respected them as a team and they were a high-profile offense so really coming out there with a shutout was like a pat on the back.”
On Saturday's game...
“We have to play football at the end of the day. It doesn't matter what we do, what they do, the better team is going to win."
On how the defense against ULM:
“I thought we played pretty well as a defense. We tackled well and got to the ball. We covered well."
