Game of the Day: Baylor at TCU
They have performed at a high level since then, so they’ve overcome that loss with their play on the field and the success they’ve had and the wins they’ve accumulated, with now six wins over teams with. The game wasn’t even close that year with Oklahoma State pummeling the Sooners, who were unable to get anything going offensively and couldn’t stop the Cowboys on the defensive end, either, by a final count of 44-10. Check out the Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma State prediction and game preview.
Nabbing the first game of the Bedlam series for Oklahoma would be another feather in his hat in a race that has all but been decided after previous favorites such as Leonard Fournette, Ezekiel Elliott, and Trevone Boykin have been knocked down in perception. And if that happens, a College Football Playoff berth could be in the cards, too. With his big-play offense, Briles has led the Bears to back-to-back Big 12 titles and they again have the nation’s top offense and still could win their third conference title in a row. Meanwhile, the Sooners managed to squeak by No. 18 TCU.
That was just the beginning of a long and heated rivalry between the two schools complete with playoff committee controversy, incidents of graffiti on the two campuses, smack-talk between fans on social media and two numbers that will be forever etched in the minds of TCU and Baylor fans; 61-58. The rankings and the records are irrelevant, though, because this is Bedlam.
Recent history indicates Saturday’s game will be must-see TV. He needs 409 more yards to become only the second Oklahoma State quarterback to reach 4,000 yards in a single-season. Washington averages 20.2 yards on 45 receptions. The game also airs as a live stream online. Walsh has 11 rushing and 11 passing touchdowns, and Oklahoma State ranks fourth nationally in red-zone efficiency and seventh in scoring heading into Saturday’s showdown with No. 5 Oklahoma.
“They are both good athletes”, Stoops said of Oklahoma State’s quarterbacks.
Now, imagine that story evolving into something even more special, which it would be if Mayfield can steer the Sooners into the playoff. The only team more banged up than Baylor is TCU, which is without receiver Josh Doctson, senior center Joey Hunt and senior guard Jamelle Naff.
-WR KD Cannon stepped into the big-play-receiver role as he caught five passes for 210 yards and two TDs versus Oklahoma State. He’ll face a front led by DE Emmanuel Ogbah that ranks among the best in the Big 12 at pressuring quarterbacks. Most recently, Baylor handed Oklahoma State its first loss of the season, 43-35 last Saturday in Stillwater. If OU’s Heisman candidate is at or near full strength, the Sooners should be just fine on offense. “It’s not easy to game plan and to be as diverse as we are at times”.
