Why Tory Blaylock is emerging as OU's leading running back

PHILADELPHIA — Tory Blaylock planted his foot at the 8-yard line with a window of open field and a tackler to beat on his way to the end zone.

OU's true freshman running back charged toward the gap, lowered his shoulder and threw a nasty stiff arm at a diving Temple defender. The second-quarter sequence put Blaylock in the end zone for what became his first career multi-touchdown game during a dominating ground performance by the Sooners on Saturday.
