CB: OU has less 4th quarter points than Texas, so please don't talk about running up the score. Especially after UT's performance against A&M.

As far as those games go, he was just running the offense. In the early season, OU would literally hang 50 on the opposing team in the first half and then dial down the offense to a bunch of dives up the middle. The problem with that is guys were getting hit pretty hard and some near misses were happening as far as injuries because the defenses basically knew what was coming.

In some of those other games, like OSU, OU was barely ahead going ahead into the 4th quarter. OSU can score quickly, so you need a buffer. Also, that last TD was scored on a run up the middle. You actually expect players to fall down on purpose before they get to the goal line?

At any rate, here's a visual aid to show you where those points were being scored. Bradford has actually sat out more time than McCoy or Tebow (probably combined).

UT Chatty 0
OU 0

Cincy 6
OU 10

UW 7

TCU 7

BU 0

UT 15

NU 7

A&M 7

TT 7

OSU 15
OU 24

MU: 7
OU 21

The Vegas odds of Bradford winning right now are 1-2 fwiw.
