Not sure why OU wasn't throwing the ball with the wind at their back. Too conservative on offense. I can understand running against the wind, but we should be able to put up 3 TDs in a quarter with the wind at our back. I blame some of this on the wind, some of it on LR's play calling, some on the OL and some on Mayfield. Basically, a total team effort to play piss poor offense.

They’ll do better in the second half. Was hoping to see a lot of Kyler Murray but that’s out now.

This was the offensive line that people were claiming to be one of the best in college football. LMAO.

Baker grabbing his balls. Very classy Baker! I’m not sure you are Heisman worthy. That is Johnny Football ****. Don’t ***** if you get passed over.

ESPN obsessing on Baker's lack of class.

Not disagreeing with them but it's a little rich coming from THAT network. They're spending several minutes on how the NFL will crap on taking him in the draft for his actions (I guess they've forgotten Jameis Winston).

That's the "participation trophy" Left for you to discredit sports passion and competitiveness.

Agree on ESPN. However he needs to grow up and learn that he is his own worst enemy when it comes to likeability.

The cheap shot on Baker by 13 Defense could have separated his shoulder. But come on Baker you get back on the scoreboard. This referee crew should be banned for life.

Yeah if Baker is passed over for the Heisman he has only himself to blame.
I hate to see a player that is as good as he is do silly crap like that. Nothing wrong with being chippy but come on man be better than that. Rant over.

I can think of better ways to exhibit sports passion and competitiveness. Mayfield’s behavior is inexcusable.

The bad thing about Baker doing things like that is it takes away from his play on the field. The media will focus on that instead of how he played and that is a shame. All the more reason not to do it.

I think its all a huge over reaction. What about when the camera focuses on a coach and he is using every name in the book? Its sports and people get emotional and do things they don't normally do. Baker just needs to realize he can't fart without people knowing about it.

I agree.

Just pointing out the hypocrisy of ESPN. They do verbally and through their published commentaries what Baker did physically.
