Sooners Upset in Lubbock
Texas Tech 34 Oklahoma 27
Bob Stoops and Kevin Wilson (Offensive Coordinator) have to take much of the blame. Many people saw this coming if Bradford ever got hurt, which happened in the first quarter in Lubbock. Leaving Bradford in games decided long before made since early in the season as he needed experience. But, as time went on, it became the Sam Bradford Show and mop-up duty meant Halzle taking the last few snaps. He had little to no game experience. So, Sam goes down, and an untested, green Joey Halzle is expected to perform on the road in Lubbock. Bob, the criticism for leaving your starting quarterback in too long goes all the way back to Josh Huepel, continued with Hybl, White - even Thompson - and then it blew up in your face on November 17, 2007 in Lubbock when Sam Bradford went down and a completely untested Hazle had to enter the game. Unfair to him, unfair to the receivers and backs, unfair to the entire team, and unfair to the fans. Millions of dollars for stupidity. We'll support you and love 'ya when you're right, but we'll loudly complain when you're wrong. With your salary you should expect nothing less. Many people have seen this coming for years. The criticism proved itself justified tonight in Lubbock, and it cost us a shot at the National Championship game in New Orleans.
