It was a
no-contest in Norman on Saturday, as the Oklahoma Sooners blew out the
Louisiana Tech Bulldogs, 48-16. Coming into this game, no one really expected
to learn much due to the fact that the Sooners were playing the significantly
weaker, Bulldogs. Oklahoma starting quarterback, Trevor Knight, threw for 253
yards and ran or 17 more. Knight also threw 1 touchdown and 1 interception to
make is overall quarterback rating, an astute 87.7 out of 100.

On the defensive
side of the ball, OU held the Bulldogs to under 250 yards of total offense, and
restricted the Tech offense to just a 33% 3rd down conversion
efficiency. Overall, this game was nothing short of a snooze-fest where the OU
coach, Bob Stoops, kept in his starting quarterback for the entire game, and
left all fans and media with the blatant fact that the Sooners were better than
the Bulldogs. Oklahoma will remain in talks regarding the national playoff
race, and their early unblemished record of 1-0 will be nothing too much to
brag about as they head up to Tulsa this Saturday. To be honest, the Sooners
will not be tested until the Tennessee Volunteers come into town in Week 3 of
this season, so let it be known that the raging high of the 2013-14 Sugar Bowl
will keep on rolling as the weeks go on.
