ESPN’s Tim Griffin has quick takes from the game, and says that the chances of the Sooners winning a title -- conference or national -- look slim:
Oklahoma’s National Title Hopes on Life Support
The Sooners’ national title hopes have been dealt a staggering blow. They aren’t dead, but they are on life support. And with Bradford’s status uncertain, their hopes for a fourth-straight Big 12 title look pretty slim now, too. It also provides the Mountain West Conference with a strong national calling card victory that arguably might be the biggest in the conference’s history.
Conversely, BYU has thrown itself in the thick of the BCS picture (yes, Week 1 BCS talk ... sorry). If they can go undefeated in the MWC and take care of Florida State in their next big non-conference game, they’ll certainly be in the National Championship discussion.
