Coach Talk

Soonerjack
A big key to success in football is exploiting the mismatches. Case in point: we really took that to heart by thoroughly overpowering The Dogs of War at running back this past week (43.9 points to 6.8).
The Dogs of War
Talk about under-utilized. As a group, the starting backfield for The Dogs of War collectively registered just three targets this past week. Get those quarterbacks to dump it down a little more often in Week 14!
