Baker Mayfield delivers strong takes on Texas as a national title contender and QB Sam Ehlinger

Never shy, former Oklahoma Heisman winner Baker Mayfield delivered some strong opinions Wednesday on Texas' return to prominence and quarterback Sam Ehlinger.

When asked if Texas could be a national contender Wednesday on Norman's SportsTalk 1400 (KREF), the Cleveland Browns quarterback predictably took a different view.

"They said that when they beat Notre Dame a couple years ago [in 2016] and they won two or three games after that. I'm sick of that crap," Mayfield said while taking a break from his football camp

Reminded of Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger and his proclamation that Texas was back at the Sugar Bowl after a win over Georgia, Mayfield referenced an Austin high school rivalry.
