Heeding the call of people all across Oklahoma, who were yelling at their televisions, "GIVE IT TO PERINE!" the OU coaching staff did, in fact, give the ball to Samaje Perine again and again. The Pflugerville Pflash blasted in from 19 yards out to give OU an 18-point lead that probably puts this game away.
What a game for Perine. The freshman has 228 yards on 31 carries and four rushing touchdowns -- including three in the second half. He is the first OU running back to rush for over 200 yards since a guy named Adrian Peterson. Perine would be a game-changer almost anywhere, but in the Big XII -- where defenses are set up to stop the passing attacks so common throughout the league -- he can be particularly devastating.
