Baker Mayfield is causing quite a stir among optimistic Oklahoma fans who believe the transfer quarterback could restore order to the Sooners' offense.
Few quarterbacks who have never taken a snap for their team have entered a season riding such a significant wave of hype as Mayfield. Stranger still is that Mayfield has yet to officially wrest the starting job from incumbent Trevor Knight.
Even so, the expectation is that Mayfield will win the job and inject instant excitement into the Sooners' new Air Raid offense, something he's a tad familiar with after running it as a freshman walk-on sensation at Texas Tech in 2013.
