Colvin, Millard Not Expected to Play in Spring Game

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said he doesn't expect that senior cornerback Aaron Colvin or fullback Trey Millard — and maybe some other experienced seniors — will play much in Saturday's spring game.

“I'm not much on guys that have played a lot of football. … Aaron Colvin, I don't want to see out there,” Stoops said. “Trey Millard can't be out there. I don't know how much (running backs) Damien (Williams) or Brennan (Clay) will play. Those guys have played a ton of football for us. I don't believe in seniors being out there much. In our other scrimmages they have played very little.” (The Oklahoman)

The offense will receive the traditional six points for touchdowns, one for extra points and three for field goals.

The defense gets six for defensive touchdowns, three for fourth-down stops, turnovers and missed field goals, and two points for three-and-outs.

OU Spring Game: Sooners Have Contingency Plan For Severe Weather

Spring game will be moved to Monday if can't be played on Saturday: With reports of possible severe weather, including talk of tornadoes, Stoops was asked about any contingency plans for Saturday's Spring Game. “You see how often those guys are wrong?” Stoops asked, referring to meteorologists. “Not to offend anybody ... If I had the same percentage they've got, I wouldn't have a job.” Stoops said if the weather does become too severe to play, the Spring Game would be canceled and the team would probably hold a private scrimmage Monday. “(We'll play) as long as it's reasonable,” Stoops said. “We're not going to endanger kids or fans if it's anything that's bad, but otherwise we'll go at it."

White Team Wins in Shutout

NORMAN, Okla. -- Landry Jones completed 17 of 34 passes for 211 yards and two touchdowns to lead the White team to a 23-0 win over the Red in Oklahoma's Spring Football Game, Saturday.

A crowd of 16,481 braved the steady rain and chilly temperatures to watch the event.

Jones, the first pick in the team's Thursday draft, tossed scoring strikes of five yards to tight end Trent Ratterree and 31 yards to Kenny Stills to go with three Jimmy Stevens field goals.

"Landry is gaining maturity and you can see that he's more sure of himself," said OU Head Coach Bob Stoops. "He made some nice throw and kept moving his team down the field.

The Sooner coach was mostly happy with his team's performance.

"The weather conditions were bad so when you factor in those things, I thought we had a solid day," he said. "It wasn't perfect by any means, but it was good overall. I wish we could have had a nicer day, but I wish that more for the fans than anybody."

Stevens started the scoring with 7:11 left in the first quarter on a 39-yard field goal to cap a 13-play, 53-yard drive.

He tacked on a 31-yarder with 2:14 left in the first frame to up the score to 6-0 before Jones and tight end Trent Ratterree hooked up on a five-yard touchdown pass with 6:14 left in the second quarter. It came at the end of a 19-play, 72-yard drive. Stevens added the extra point to extend the lead to 13-0.

Stevens then made a 27-yard field goal with 3:45 remaining in the half and the White held a 16-0 advantage at the intermission.

The lone score of the second half came with 6:13 left in the game when Jones and Stills hooked up on the 31-yard play.

Redshirt freshman fullback Marshall Musil paced the White's running attack with 29 carries for 92 yards. OU's top returning rusher, DeMarco Murray, saw his only duty in catching punts.

Stills, who transferred to OU in January after completing his fall semester of high school, led all receivers with six grabs for 84 yards and was impressive in his Sooner debut.

Defensive players were not allowed to hit the quarterbacks and were awarded sacks when they touched the quarterback behind the line of scrimmage. Jeremy Beal racked up five sacks as a member of the White team.

The leading tackler in the game was the Red team linebacker Jaydan Bird.

The White team will be the beneficiary of the Winner Dinner Monday night. As the winning team, its participants will feast on steak. The losing Red squad will dine one hot dogs and baked beans.

OU will hold the last of its 15 spring practices for this year on Monday afternoon.

Recruits Attend Red/White Game

Oklahoma Sooner Football Articles and Notes

Sooners wear wristbands in support of Corey Wilson: Several Sooners wore new rubber wristbands during the scrimmage. The bands are red and blue, and on the front is the yellow Superman logo. The wristbands were a gift handed out by Sooner Corey Wilson, who watched from a wheelchair on the sideline. Wilson was paralyzed in a February car accident and has begun full rehab with hopes of walking someday. "It's tough, man," linebacker Travis Lewis said. "We have to keep his spirits up. We have to be strong for him." (Tulsa World)

Updated Depth Chart: The Oklahoman has updated their projected fall OU Depth Chart.

Prospective recruits attend Red/White game: Dozens of high-profile recruits were in attendance, including at least three five-star prospects and more than a dozen four-star prospects, as rated by Rivals.com. Among the most coveted recruits in the stands was defensive end Jackson Jeffcoat of Plano, Texas (he was there with his father, former Dallas defensive end Jim Jeffcoat), wide receiver Darius White and quarterback Blake Bell -- already an OU verbal commitment. Tulsa Central running back DeMarco Cobbs, rated as the top overall player in Oklahoma, also was in Norman. (Tulsa World)
