QB Sam Bradford and WR Malcolm Kelly
The passing duo devastated Miami's defense with the quick post, using the play on either side of the field for 23- and 24-yard touchdown passes in the first quarter.

They also connected in the second half for a score on a 30-yard corner route.

Bradford set a Sooner record for consecutive completions, connecting on 22 straight throws dating back to North Texas.

Saturday, he completed 19 of 25 attempts for 205 yards and five TDs.

Kelly caught four passes for 102 yards and three TDs.

CB Marcus Walker
In the game's first minute, Walker nearly had two interceptions, including a near-spectacular pick on the opening play that was overturned by officials after review.

Miami tried to isolate its best receiver — 6-foot-3 senior Lance Leggett — on Walker, who's only 5-10.

Instead, Walker completely dominated the matchup, holding Leggett to no catches.

TE Jermaine Gresham
For the second week, Gresham caught a TD pass.

Saturday, he led the Sooners with eight catches for 55 yards and a 6-yard TD catch as the big tight end gradually is becoming a focal point for the offense.
