NORMAN — Nik Bonitto took a couple slow steps to his left, almost bouncing as he followed along with the quarterback.
The OU rush linebacker took a couple of aggressive steps forward and then slowed up again for a moment before taking off straight ahead.
A play before his pivotal sack against Texas in the third overtime Oct. 10 in Dallas, Bonitto was just as important, rushing headlong toward Sam Ehlinger and forcing the Longhorn to release the ball too quickly to find a receiver.
On the next play, Bonitto once again danced a bit, before taking off toward Ehlinger, this time corralling him and bringing him down in the backfield.
