One year after Rodney Anderson's emergence, Oklahoma RB Kennedy Brooks is proving no stage is too big for him

Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley could try to explain what makes freshman running back Kennedy Brooks see the field so well.

But, as Riley puts it, that makes little sense. So when Riley met with reporters ahead of this week’s Big 12 championship game against No. 14 Texas (9-3), he summed up why the former Mansfield standout has made an impact for the No. 5 Sooners (11-1).

“He seems the game differently than most backs do and has nice physical skills to go along with it,” Riley said on Monday.

Whatever Brooks is looking at has turned him into one of top offensive weapons in the nation.
