Texas had no answers for OU's offense. It seems the only time OU failed to score was either TOs, penalties, or bad playcalling (which killed 2 drives early).
When OU just played normal plays and not force Kyler to take off immediately, Texas had a lot of trouble stopping them.
Another big difference was when Brooks got in the game, he really looked good and he was still learning the offense. This time he should be a major force because last game they relied on Sermon and Sutton a lot.
On defense, OU seemed to have a lot of trouble stopping the QB, either on designed option runs or running out of the pocket.
I think they need to use Kelley as a spy on Ehlinger and if he takes off, nail him. Early on, it appeared some WR screens and their size was a problem but OU made adjustments in the 2nd half that negated most of that, but Ehlinger running continued to hurt.
Too many times, OU gave up chunk yards on 3rd and 20, allowing Texas to convert on 4th and short.
If OU can take care of the ball, limit penalties and contain Ehlinger, OU should win BIG!
Btw, OU did get pressure on Ehlinger, but he was able to escape just about every time, usually gaining 5-10 yards.
