Oklahoma Sooners Football: Kyler Murray has work to do, but greatness is within his grasp

Following the Oklahoma Sooners’ 49-21 win over the UCLA Bruins, ESPN’s Marty Smith caught up with Kyler Murray to get his thoughts on the game as well as his individual performance.

“I could have played better,” Murray said, “but it was good enough.”

Considering he was recently named Big 12 and Walter Camp Offensive Player of the Week, that kind of self-assessment says something about the standard to which Murray holds himself. On the day, the dynamic, dual-threat (and dual-sport) athlete passed for a career-best 306 yards and accounted for five scores.
