One way to slow down a running QB is to shake him up early. OU was trying way too hard to avoid a Personal Foul and letting him slide late. If you let him run freely without trying to take his head off he'll do just that and that's what happen. Sometimes a late hit may be in order.
Not that it would have mattered really, OU's defense was laughable.
I'm not making excuses BTW, I hate OU and loved every snap of this game. I just noticed OU's defense pulling up and unwillingness to HIT SOMEBODY! especially Johnny F.
