No. 12 Sooners gash No. 6 Bears, end Baylor’s undefeated run

The Baylor Bears suffered their first defeat of the season at the hands of the Oklahoma Sooners in a game that felt lethargic all night. The Bears fell to the Sooners 44-34, their first loss to Oklahoma since 2012. The loss also ended the Bears nation-leading home win streak, halting the streak at 20.

After one of the most impressive performances I have ever seen against Kansas State on Thursday, Jarrett Stidham showed cracks in his armor. The true freshman threw for 257 yards and a pair of scores but also had two huge interceptions. The first came in the closing minutes of the third quarter, a complete misread of KD Cannon’s route, allowing Zack Sanchez to catch the ball without trouble.
