With OU ahead only 14-7, Bradford was “extremely vocal” during the break. Whatever Bradford said, it worked, as the Sooners rolled to a 33-7 win following a much smoother second half.

Bradford passed for 389 yards and one touchdown in his first start since injuring his right shoulder in the season-opener against BYU.
