Transcript Sports Writer It’s hard for Oklahoma to surprise those who pay attention to college football. Each season, brings expectations of competing for a national title.

He highlights a running game OU will lean on even more while its quarterbacks, receivers and offensive line round into shape. Peterson set a school and NCAA freshman record with 1,925 rushing yards. What can he possibly do for an encore? Last season’s numbers were staggering and will be harder to duplicate as he becomes the focal point of OU’s offense.
