NORMAN — Popular wisdom pegged Saturday night’s showdown as a Heisman-elimination game.

Sam Bradford vs. Graham Harrell.

Sam stands tall.

The Oklahoma offense rolled on, with Bradford pulling all the right strings. He didn’t throw often, yet was surgically efficient when he did.

With the ground game gouging Texas Tech’s defense, Bradford was only needed for 19 throws.

He connected on 14.

And four went for touchdowns.

For those keeping count, Heisman voters and crimson crazies, that’s 42 touchdown tosses for Bradford this season.

And that’s more than any Sooner — ever — in a season. Jason White, OU’s Heisman winner in 2003, had 40 in that special year.
