Evidently, according to the article in sbnation.com, OU was not a double digit favorite in those two games.....but was favored.

Yeah, but Bradford went out with an injury. Our team wasn't playing good before he went out though. That sucked.

TE Gresham was lost before the opener for the year as well.
2009 featured key injuries to 15 OU players. It was a lost season from the very beginning and had close losses to BYU, Texas, Miami and Nebraska.
Texas played Alabama for the national championship after surviving a 16-13 scare in the OU game.
