Six league teams were in action, however, and that included one conference matchup, a good one between a couple of conference contenders in Oklahoma State and Baylor.
It may have been a bye week for the Sooners, but there was plenty to be learned with Oklahoma kicking off Big 12 play next weekend against TCU.
Texas, which the Sooners meet up with in a couple of weeks in the annual Red River tussle in Dallas, also was off this weekend along with Kansas and Texas Tech, which square off in the next game for both.
The Oklahoma coaches obviously were particularly interested in TCU and got the chance to see the Horned Frogs live on Friday night on the road against SMU.
