WACO, Texas — Iowa State’s first touchdown last week wasn’t a flashy play.
Tarique Milton caught the ball behind the line of scrimmage and quickly found himself one-on-one with Oklahoma freshman cornerback Jaden Davis.
Milton ran right through an attempted Davis tackle and soon enough was in the end zone.
It was one of 13 missed tackles by the Sooners in that 42-41 victory, according to numbers provided by PFF.com.
Turnovers, or more aptly the lack of turnovers, have been a major focus for OU in recent weeks. The Sooners haven’t officially had a takeaway — Parnell Motley’s interception last week doesn’t count since it happened on a 2-point conversion — since late September against Texas Tech.
