The run game was still solid for Oklahoma.... Had Bama not come out the gates with a huge 1st quarter... then yes... Oklahoma would have run for 200yards +
Still 163 or whatever it was is pretty solid against Bama...
So lesson of the day:
Take this with you so you will understand how to correctly watch a game from this point on...
When a team is down 20+ points... they tend to abandon the run game.
Well said Boom. I think OU averaged over 5 yards/carry. Digging that deep hole for themselves early in the game was just too much to overcome. Going into the game, two things had to happen for OU to have a shot to win......1) win the turnover battle and 2) win the battle of "breaks" (the over-ruled fumble on Bama's 1st possession and the"let it stand" possession call on their 2nd touchdown). They won neither. The championship should be a good one. I'm sure Clemson will attack the freshman DB that was covering Cee Dee Lamb. Give me Clemson and the points.
