Hartley had a pregame target
Oklahoma-Tulsa Notebook
By John Shinn
The Norman Transcript
Kelly entered the game averaging 100.7 receiving yards a game. He finished with three catches for 48 yards against the Golden Hurricane.
Juaquin Iglesias was the star for the receiver corps. He had eight catches for 142 yards and his first two receiving touchdowns of the season.
Williams leaves early
Defensive end John Williams suffered an ankle injury early in the second half while chasing after Tulsa quarterback Paul Smith. Williams, who entered the game with four tackles for losses and one sack, had his left ankle re-taped twice on the sideline. But did not re-enter the game.
He remained on the sidelines throughout the remainder of the game, but wore an ice pack and was on crutches until the end of the game.
Alan Davis rotated with Auston English and Alonzo Dotson at defensive end after Williams’ injury.
Patrick stays hot
Since recovering from a preseason ankle injury, running back Allen Patrick has been a workhorse. The senior rushed for 145 yards Friday night with touchdown runs of 1 and 29 yards.
The depth at running back might come into play as OU enters Big 12 play next Saturday. Chris Brown, who rushed for 65 yards on nine carries, was knocked out on his final carry, a 14-yard gain, that set up OU’s eighth touchdown early in fourth quarter.
Adams’ night
Former Moore standout Tarrion Adams wasn’t able to get out of the gate. The senior rushed for 208 yards in the Golden Hurricane’s first two games.
He finished with 43 on nine carries Friday night and didn’t find the end zone. Running the ball wasn’t a big part of Tulsa’s game plan after the Sooners’ claimed a two-touchdown lead early in the second quarter.
