Dave: Big 12 Championship seems like a birth right for Sooners

by

We are coming to the end of a really strange college football season.

I don’t know how history will judge this year. Should there be an asterisk by all the records and Championships?

Should the season have counted? Should the season even have been played at all?

Should Ohio St. get into the play off after playing 5 regular season games? Hell, should they really have been allowed to play in the Big 10 Title game? Who knows?

I was of the opinion that the season should have been cancelled for the safety of all involved.

Dave: Meaningless WVU out of the way — on to the Big 12 Championship game (unless Covid decides otherwise)

Baylor ended up being a very frustrating game to watch.

The offense was not its usual self after having only scored 10 points in the first half and 27 overall, breaking a 60 game streak of scoring at least 28 points.

The bright spot of course was that the defense shut the Bears out in the first half and, after a garbage touchdown with less than a minute left, gave up only 14 points total.

The defense actually only gave up one or two big plays. And they held the Bears to 25 yards rushing.

So it was the defense that kept the game in control while the offense sputtered. How often have we been able to say that in the past several years?

Defense carries Sooners into Big 12 championship game, with 27-14 win over Baylor

A tenacious Baylor defense stymied the Oklahoma offense all night.

But for perhaps the first time this season it was the Sooners defense that stepped up to keep OU ahead in the game, and secured not only a 27-14 win, but a berth in the Big 12 Championship game on December 19. 

The Oklahoma defense has held opponents to 14 points or less in the last three games.

After an 0-2 start for the season, when it seemed unlikely they would wind up at AT&T Stadium at the end of the season, the Sooners return to the championship game.

Oklahoma has played in the title game 12 times and lost only once.

However, Oklahoma Coach Lincoln Riley wasn’t satisfied with the performance Saturday night..

“I think our guys weren’t coached worth a damn this week, to be completely honest,” he said in his post-game press conference.
