Oklahoma's commitment list added two new members in the last week and both Brian Asamoah and Trejan Bridges made dramatic impacts in their first week here, with one taking home the Week 2 MVP award. Beyond that there were plenty of big performances, including from a pair of the Sooners elite offensive line commitments.
