Oklahoma junior QB Blake Bell has more rushing touchdowns (24) than career passing attempts (20).
The "Belldozer" was used in a specific short yardage package for the last two seasons, which also set back Landry Jones' progression in those situations. The Sooners have an excellent slot target in Jalen Saunders, but it will be Bell's job to get him the ball in stride. May 23 - 1:10 PM

Oklahoma will continue to use the Belldozer package, which features sophomore QB Blake Bell, in short yardage and redzone situations.

Bell carried the ball 44 times last season, and 26 of those attempts either went for a first down or ended in a touchdown. "It allows us to be a lot more efficient in the red zone, in the tight zone and then third-and-short situations," said offensive coordinator Jeff Huepel. The package does raise some concerns with senior quarterback Landry Jones, who loses critical redzone snaps and short conversion downs, so he may be less experienced in those situations compared to other prospects.
