Tough tough year for Stoops and company. As much as I'm not an OU fan, I like them to be good, because the competitiveness against them and UT is absolutely amazing to watch when it's on. Here's hoping for less bumps in the road next year.
Oklahoma's top tackler, captain Alexander arrestedAssociated Press

NORMAN, Okla. -- Linebacker Rufus Alexander, Oklahoma's leading tackler, was arrested early Sunday on two misdemeanor charges, Norman police confirmed.
A police dispatcher confirmed that Alexander, one of Oklahoma's team captains, was arrested about 2 a.m. on charges of disturbing the peace and interference with official process. The dispatcher said Alexander bonded out, but referred questions about additional details to a public information officer.
Calls to Norman's public information officer were not returned late Sunday night. A message left for Oklahoma associate athletic director for communications Kenny Mossman late Sunday night also was not immediately returned.
Alexander, considered an NFL prospect, had seven tackles and a diving interception in Oklahoma's 34-9 win against Iowa State on Saturday. During the game, tailback Adrian Peterson sustained a broken collarbone that will cause him to miss the rest of the regular season.
Alexander, who leads Oklahoma with 48 tackles, announced in January that he would return for his senior season so he could earn his degree. He had a team-high 102 tackles for the Sooners last season, including 17 for a loss, along with five sacks and two forced fumbles.
After the win against Iowa State, Oklahoma (4-2, 1-2 Big 12) moved from No. 23 to No. 20 in The Associated Press' college football poll.
