The Oklahoma Sooners Football Thread

Even though he lost, Bradford had a solid night. It'll be interesting to see if he declares for the draft. I believe he's losing quite a bit of the talent around him, if he'd elect to stay. Does another year in that system really help him with pro scouts?

Bradford did look very accurate, although I questioned his decisions on a couple of throws. Strictly from a career perspective, I don't think there would be much reason not to declare. There are rumors that renegotiation of the CBA could include a rookie pay scale by 2010, and I would think Bradford's stock should already be near the top of this year's class of quarterbacks.

As for the rest of the Sooners...well, I was pretty disappointed with their inability to convert on short yardage situations. Jermaine Gresham looked good making clutch receptions and picking up some yardage after the catch. Chris Brown looked good when he wasn't getting stuffed.
