Top Stories from Saturday:
"In 2013, Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby told the Associated Press that the 10-team Big 12 was “the right number for us.” And while his quotes about the situation have changed, the takeaway has been the same: the Big 12 is solid, if not happy, at 10 teams. But is that the right position to take? 24/7 Sports"

"Oklahoma’s linebackers have been an ongoing experiment since Mike Stoops returned to the program a few years back. While there were times in the past that Stoops used one or zero linebackers, there is now a core trio returning to the field that saw a ton of action last season, combining for 222 tackles between them. Dallas Morning News"
"Knight is just starting to approach his potential on the field but he’s already made a mark off it. The Allstate Sugar Bowl MVP has gone to Haiti twice as a member of OU’s “Sooners4Haiti” contingent and is active in FCA, often appearing as a public speaker when his schedule allows. On the field, he’s developing as a leader and playmaker and could rise to battle Petty for All-Big 12 honors with consistent performances in 2014. ESPN"
