Big 12: Oklahoma beats TCU and now seeks No. 1

 

Published 9/28/2008 at L.A. Times - College Football

The No. 2 Sooners look impressive and could take over the top spot in the Associated Press poll because of top-ranked USC's loss Thursday. > * at No. 2 Oklahoma 35, No. 24 Texas Christian 10: Sam Bradford threw for a career-best 411 yards and four touchdowns, Manuel Johnson set a school record with 206 yards receiving and the second-ranked Sooners (4-0) avenged their last loss at Owen Field by beating the Horned Frogs (4-1) at Norman. With top-ranked USC and three other top 10 teams losing, Oklahoma made as strong a case as any team to get back to No. 1 for the first time since it lost to Kansas State in the 2003 Big 12 championship game.
