Watch Oklahoma-Baylor Replay; Big 12 CF Scores: November 14
The Oklahoma State Cowboys ground game is averaging 144.6 yards per contest, and Chris Carson leads the way with 446 yards and four touchdowns. But I think Saturday may end up being a blessing for the Big 12. The Longhorns ran just fine against WVU, but it couldn’t hang on to the ball. Oklahoma State was 5-6 before being saved by Tyreek Hill’s late 92-yard punt return for a touchdown to set up an overtime win over the Sooners and push the Cowboys into a bowl. Oklahoma still has that loss to Texas on the resume, and it still has to deal with TCU and a road game to Oklahoma State. Besides visions of turkey and dressing dancing in many heads, college football teams have their eyes on crowns as they get down to the meat of their schedules with a few rivalries and conference championship games.
EAST LANSING, Mich. – Connor Cook left the game at halftime with an apparent shoulder injury, putting a bit of a damper on MI State’s victory.
HOUSTON 35, MEMPHIS 34 The backup quarterback Kyle Postma rushed for the go-ahead score and threw for a touchdown to rally No. 16 Houston (10-0, 6-0 American Athletic) from 20 points down in a narrow home victory over No. 25 Memphis (8-2, 4-2). Corey Coleman and Jay Lee have combined for 1,856 receiving yards and 27 touchdowns while KD Cannon has 34 receptions.
ANNPOLIS, Md. – Keenan Reynolds broke the NCAA record for career rushing touchdowns, upping his total to 81 with four scores, and Navy beat SMU to remain undefeated in the American Athletic Conference. His passing efficiency rating of 186.8 is second in the nation to Baylor’s injured Seth Russell, who will eventually fail to qualify for the national rankings because of a lack of games played. A new tiebreaker procedure was put in place after Baylor and TCU were declared co-champs last season – and both one-loss teams got left out of the playoff.
It’s been said by many experts that it will take an undefeated Big 12 teams, or a combination of unexpected losses by other top five teams for the Big 12 to secure a spot in the College Football Playoff. If we needed any more evidence of how valuable Boykin is to TCU, we got it Saturday when the Horned Frogs barely beat Kansas 23-17. OU also forced five three-and-outs en route to handing the Bears their first loss at the two-year-old McLane Stadium.
Shepard caught 14 passes for 177 yards and two scores. And Baylor coach Art Briles joked that the quarterback walked more like a man his age, as opposed to a healthy 19-year-old. Daniels finished with 195 yards rushing on 26 carries.
“I’m just out there playing backyard football at that point”, Mayfield said. The Tigers host Wake Forest then steps outside the conference to play cross-state rival SC (3-7). “Ever since then, we’ve just been grinding it out”.
No. 9 MI State at No. 2 Ohio State. Judging by the College Football Playoff committee’s opinion of Alabama, this is not going to hurt the SEC in playoff jockeying unless Alabama loses to Auburn on November 28 or Florida in the SEC Championship Game. “I knew if we were in their shoes we would have scored, too”. Dana Holgorsen has evolved this season coaching the Mountaineers, who have consecutive wins over Texas Tech and Texas. The Crimson Tide are the only team with a loss in Herbstreit’s poll.
“They’ve been a thorn in our side, you know what I mean?” “But that’s just part of it, and today I’m feeling a lot better”. Players listed including position, school, year (Height, weight and current NFLDraftScout.com overall rating and by position).
