I don't think you can definitively say what would have happened had Bryant not gotten injured. It definitely made a difference, but you can't ignorehow physically dominant Oregon was running the ball in the 2nd half. You could argue that when Bryant got injured that swung the momentum, but I think it wasinevitable that UO would eventually start controlling the ground. They were already moving the ball in the first half but but had a few mistakes here and therethat cost them some points.
Basically, you can't flat out argue that Ok. St. would have won had Bryant not gotten injured while completely ignoring how dominant Oregon was in the 2ndhalf. When you physically impose your will on someone to that extent, that reveals a serious weakness in a team that would have been uncovered eventually nomatter the circumstances.
