Kansas picked to win Big 12, Oklahoma 6th, Oklahoma St. 7th

The Wildcats will begin the non-conference schedule on Friday, Nov. 11, against Chicago State at 5:30 p.m.

The Oklahoma Sooners play the Kansas State Wildcats today in a Big 12conference rivalry game this afternoon on the college football schedule.

Perine had 214 rushing yards against Texas and breaks into the top 10 for the first time this season.

“I feel like we’re playing with a little more consistency”, Sooner coach Bob Stoops said. That day, Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield threw five touchdown passes in the first half, with the Sooners rolling to a 35-0 lead. It’s going to be on us, I don’t think we’re going to take Kansas State lightly at all because they’re not a light team, they’re not a bad team, they’re a good football program especially from Bill Snyder coaching those guys up.

Oklahoma improves to 4-2 on the year and 3-0 in Big 12 play. Heath ended up with seven receptions for 101 yards, both career-highs.

PASSING PERCENTAGE: K-State quarterback Jesse Ertz has completed 51 of 105 passes. He also has rushed for 253 yards and 3 TDs. That’s a fine art, those guys, in the way they run, and split-second reactions. The Cyclones trampled the Baylor defense for 458 yards to build a 42-28 lead through three quarters.

Baylor won 22 games in 2015-16, recording the eighth 20-win season in the last nine years, and the Bears have averaged 23.8 wins per season since 2007-08.

Oklahoma defeated Texas last week, 45-40, with a balanced offense. The Sooners are more familiar with what opposing defenses are trying to do.

Mayfield continued his dynamic chemistry with his favorite receiver Westbrook, who totaled 184 yards and three touchdown catches on the game, with his final score coming from 88 yards out to seal the OU victory.

After K-State (3-3, 1-2) went on a 17-play, 89-yard touchdown drive to slice the OU lead to 14-7, Mixon threw a 26-yard halfback pass to Westbrook to make it 21-7. It would be the first time he didn’t crack the 1,000-yard mark, if the trend holds. The second occurred when Geno Lewis was knocked down, and Haines had his second pick. But the Wildcats ran the ball 32 times against the Sooners and gained just 110 yards on them. Among Westbrook’s touchdowns was an 8-yard pass from Mayfield late in the third quarter. Oklahoma’s defense continued to struggle amid a plague of injuries. Cornerback Michiah Quick suffered the most severe injury-out six weeks with a sprained MCL. Defensive back Ahmad Thomas is likely to be back after taking a knee to the head last week. This is the player that Oklahoma has been expecting all season, but is just now getting.

574 yards and eight touchdowns. “If you don’t play defense, they could score anytime they snap the ball”. They will finish last again this year and probably won’t win a conference game. It only lasted two plays, though.

“Having those three opponents (TCU, Texas, K-State) behind you with a win is very good”.

Fortunately, the Wildcats aren’t known as a passing juggernaut and aren’t good at defending the pass.

“Joe was sensational running the football”. We have to address last year’s ballgame for a lot of different reasons, not just the fact that we didn’t show up. “If you don’t cover people, you’re going to get that”.
