Defense impressive in Saturday's scrimmage

The Sooner secondary was all over the passses thrown by Paul Thompson and Rhett Bomar in Saturday afternoon's scrimmage. This is a good thing due to the fact that our secondary was completly un-sooneresqe last year. The Oklahoman's George Schroeder developed this argument in today's paper. He makes the following point.

In 1999, Stoops' first season, the Sooners snatched 18 interceptions.
Every year afterward, they grabbed at least 21.

In 2004 the Sooners pulled down a grand total of eight. Hopefully this weekends showing is a sign of things to come for the Sooner secondary.
