TCU DL Chris Bradley somehow intercepted Mason Rudolph while being blocked

It’s not uncommon for a defensive lineman to intercept a pass on a screen play. But the play made by TCU’s Chris Bradley wasn’t any ordinary interception.

Here’s another look at the play slowed down a bit. Bradley, lined up at nose tackle, totally knows Oklahoma State is running a screen pass from the moment the ball is snapped. Still, he has Oklahoma State’s Brad Lundblade — a 6-foot-3, 300-pound lineman — right in his grill, but he absorbs the contact with his eyes on Rudolph and makes a pretty remarkable play.

The interception came on Oklahoma State’s first drive of the second half with TCU already up 20-10 on the road. Bradley’s play gave the 16th-ranked Horned Frogs offense a short field. Six plays later, a Darius Anderson TD run extended TCU’s lead to 27-10.

The sixth-ranked Cowboys are in big danger of being upset.
