Congratulations and until next year….

With College Football coming to a close tonight and two Heisman Trophy winners facing off. Tonight’s game will be great.

As a Sooner I hope this goes in the record books. Sam Bradford is amazing and Tim Tebow is too. This is a great match for a Championship Game. I just wish I was in Florida right now.

Boomer Sooner!

Heisman attribute
He has the arm. He has the intellect. He has the numbers. But what separates Sam Bradford from his peers is his pulse rate, or lack thereof. He is cooler than Vince Chase. It’s not that Bradford has shown the poise in a last-minute rally; Oklahoma hasn’t needed one. It’s that nothing rattles him. He slices up defenses with a surgeon’s acumen. Like most patients, defenses can’t do anything about it.

Heisman moment
The Leap. First of all, it was a mistake. Bradford should have slid or stepped out of bounds. Instead, he leaped for the end zone late in the third quarter of the Oklahoma State game, and a pair of Cowboys knocked him up and out of bounds. Bradford sailed wide of the mark as if he were a member of, oh, Iceland’s Olympic team. But the athleticism and desire that leap showed captured who Bradford is. It captured the nation, too.

Why Bradford should win
There are two schools of thought in Heisman voting. Some people like to vote for the player who accumulates statistics by the shipload. Some people like to vote for the player who led his team to top of the rankings. With Bradford, one size fits all. He is on the verge of setting an NCAA FBS record for passing efficiency, and the Sooners are playing for the crystal football. The redshirt sophomore is the Heisman Everyman.

As a born and raised Sooner I wish Bradford the best tomorrow and on Jan 8th on his march into college football history.

BOOMER SOONER!
