Sooners looking for more playmakers
DeMarco Murray and Ryan Broyles entered the season as the proven playmakers for No. 7 Oklahoma. They’re not supposed to be the only ones making big plays, though.
Murray ran for a career-best 218 yards and two touchdowns and Broyles had 142 yards receiving with two scores in the Sooners’ season-opening win against Utah State on Saturday night. But no other player gained more than 15 yards on any given play, heaping all of the heavy lifting onto Murray and Broyles. - Blake resigns as Tar Heels assistant
