Norman, OK (SportsNetwork. Terrell Owens Super Bowl Jersey .com) – The first of a home-and-home set between two storied programs went to Oklahoma. And it was never seriously threatened. Trevor Knight threw for 308 yards with a touchdown and an interception as the fourth-ranked Sooners rolled to a 34-10 victory over Tennessee on Saturday night. The Sooners (3-0), who have outscored their opponents 55-0 so far in the first quarter, raced out to a 13-0 start in this one and never looked back in the first meeting between these two heavyweights since OU beat Tennessee in the 1968 Orange Bowl. „I think coming out and starting quick in the game was big for us,“ Knight said. „We got three (points) on that first drive, not necessarily what we want, but came back and got a touchdown and jumped on them pretty quick.“ Knight completed 20-of-33 passes and ran for a score, Sterling Shepard caught five passes for 109 yards and Keith Ford carried the ball 15 times for 56 yards and a touchdown in the triumph. Zack Sanchez and Julian Wilson recorded interceptions in the end zone, with Wilson running his back for a 100-yard touchdown. Oklahoma head coach Bob Stoops got another win against the SEC after the Sooners ripped SEC member Alabama in the Sugar Bowl. OU had dropped three straight games against the vaunted conference prior to the Sugar Bowl. Justin Worley was 21-of-44 for 201 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions for the young and up-and-coming Volunteers (2-1), who were seeking their first 3-0 start since 2004. Jalen Hurd ran for 97 yards on 14 totes in defeat. „It was a great growing-up session for our youngsters, but I thought at times we did some really good things,“ Vols head coach Butch Jones said. It appeared that the Sooners were going to turn the game into a laugher when Knight kept it himself on a zone-read run for a 5-yard score to give them a 27-7 advantage early in the third. The Vols, though, got some hope after pouncing on a fumbled punt at the Oklahoma 30-yard line. The miscue led to a 31-yard Aaron Medley field goal late in the third and Tennessee quickly got the ball back following a three-and-out. Hurd broke free along the right sideline for a 43-yard run on the first play to get into Oklahoma territory. Tennessees previous 19 carries totaled minus-11 yards. Sanchez, however, came down with a jump ball in the back right corner of the end zone to quell the threat. Tennessee regained possession following another Oklahoma three-and-out and a 29-yard Hurd run along the left sideline put the ball at the OU 12. On a 3rd- and-2 from the four, linebacker Jordan Evans stepped in front of Worleys intended receiver and deflected the pass into the air. Wilson hauled in the floater and returned it the other way for the back-breaking score and a 34-10 Sooners advantage with 10:57 left. Earlier, Michael Hunnicutt nailed a 29-yard field goal on the Sooners opening possession. OU safety Quentin Hayes strip-sacked Worley from behind after the Vols moved past midfield on their ensuing touch and Ford hauled in a 23-yard swing pass for a score to make it 10-0. Hunnicutts 27-yard field goal with seconds left in the first made it 13-0. Worley hit a wide-open Josh Smith for a 40-yard score on a seam pattern to get Tennessee on the board early in the second, but Ford scampered in from 11 yards out late in the half to give the Sooners a 20-7 cushion heading into the break.

With the union re-formed, negotiations with owners will resume Friday on the remaining issues that would be in the collective bargaining agreement, according to a person familiar with the plans.AVONDALE, Ariz. — A few drivers, like Brad Keselowski and Joey Logano, raced onto the track to get in their qualifying sessions. Others waited, some nearly 10 minutes, before heading out for the first time. There were long stretches with almost no activity followed by mad scrambles to get runs in before time ran out. Cars raced past each other at close to a 100 mph difference. No doubt, this first round of NASCARs new knockout qualifying was a little strange and will take some getting used to. Brad Keselowski earned the first Sprint Cup pole under NASCARs new format, edging Joey Logano with a track-record top speed of 139.384 mph at Phoenix International Raceway on Friday. „Its a lot more nerve-racking,“ Keselowski said. „Usually a pretty good rule of thumb is that If its more nerve-racking for the drivers, its a lot more fun for our fans and partners and all those things, and thats a good thing. Im more interested in feedback from our fans to see if they liked it.“ Keselowski was one of the first drivers to go out in the first session and finished behind Logano. He trumped his teammate in the shorter, second session to earn his fourth career pole and a spot on the front row for Sundays 312-mile race. Jamie McMurray qualified third, defending Sprint Cup champion Jimmie Johnson was fourth and Daytona 500 champion Dale Earnhardt Jr. will start fifth, next to Greg Biffle. „The qualifying format was before because I felt like I was one of those guys it was exciting for me because I wasnt in, I made another run, I got in,“ McMurray said. „The excitement was there.“ NASCAR made numerous changes for this season, including a tweaked qualifying process in an effort to liven up what had become a monotonous part of race weekend. Instead of going out one at a time, the entire field gets a 30-minute session to post their fastest lap, with the top 12 moving on to a 10-minute second round. On bigger tracks, the qualifying will have three sessions, with the field cut to 24 then 12. NASCAR got a glimpse of the new system at Daytona last week, but it didnt last long; the Nationwide series was able to get inn one round before rain washed out the rest of the qualifying and for the Truck Series. Steve Young Super Bowl Jersey. The Daytona 500 didnt use the new qualifying process, so Phoenix was the inaugural go-round. No one knew quite what to expect and there was a bit of concern about drivers intentionally blocking each other to prevent fast lap times, something NASCAR officials planned to keep an eye on. Instead, the action on the track was sparse for long stretches, with some drivers racing out to get qualifying laps in right away while several others waited several minutes to get their first lap in. One issue while there were multiple cars on the track were the speeds. NASCAR decided against allowing teams to have cool down units in their pit stalls, so most of the drivers in the field put in one fast lap and one that was much slower to cool their engines, creating differences of up to 100 mph between the cars. „Weve got a really good dialogue with all of our competitors,“ said Robin Pemberton, NASCARs vice-president for competition and racing development. „They dont want to force us to do something thats wrong. They weigh in because they think things can be better. Its our job to take and balance all that out and remove the agenda part of that a team may or may not have. Right now, its working pretty good.“ For the first session, Logano and Keselowski were at the front of the pack along pit road — by random drawing — and raced to get out in front on the track so theyd have a clear path. Logano put up the fastest time early and Keselowski was right behind him in second. Despite teams coming in for adjustments — one crewmember was allowed to come over the wall to make minor changes — those two stayed out front for the entire first session. For the final session, Keselowski put up his fast time relatively early in the 10-minute window and swapped places with Logano for the pole. „Unfortunately, we won the wrong one,“ Logano said. „We won the first one and our teammate got the second one, but either way we both had a chance to win something. He just got the trophy to take the pictures with.“ ‚ ‚ ‚
