Bradford Wins Baugh Award
Sooner quarterback honored
Dec. 7, 2008
NORMAN, Okla. - Oklahoma sophomore quarterback Sam Bradford--who led the Sooners to a third straight Big 12 Championship while throwing for nearly 4500 yards and connecting on 48 touchdown passes--is the winner of the Sammy Baugh Trophy presented to college football's top passer by The Touchdown Club of Columbus.
The award was first presented in 1959 and has been held by legendary players including Steve Young, John Elway, Bob Griese, Kerry Collins, and last year's winner, Texas Tech quarterback Graham Harrell.
Bradford completed more than two-thirds of his passes in 2008, and was intercepted only six times while under center of the most powerful scoring offense in college football history.
Bradford is the first Sooner ever to win the prestigious Baugh Award.
The Sammy Baugh Trophy will be presented during the Touchdown Club of Columbus 54th Annual Sports Banquet scheduled for Saturday, February 7, 2009 at the Lifestyle Communities Pavilion in Downtown Columbus. For additional information, visit www.touchdownclubofcolumbus.com.
