Oklahoma Sooners Football: The Growing Legend of Joe Mixon

Joe Mixon’s performance last week in Lubbock cannot be overstated. Even though it came against a historically bad Texas Tech defense, there are still very few football players capable of what Mixon pulled off, and at such a spectacular, eye-catching clip. Becoming the first Sooner and just the third FBS player in college football history to record 200+ yards rushing and 100+ yards receiving in one game, Mixon is that “Wow” guy, the type of player who does something, in the spot-on words of Sam Mayes this afternoon on The Franchise, makes you go “HOLY CRAP” on a weekly basis.
