OU football: Baker Mayfield has a chance to be the best QB in OU history

NORMAN — Baker Mayfield reaches another late-season title drive Saturday having accomplished a couple of formidable feats.

The Oklahoma quarterback has surpassed the lofty standard he set in 2015, when Mayfield was an all-American and placed fourth in the Heisman Trophy voting. But that's not all. Mayfield in some ways is having a season to rival Sam Bradford's epic 2008 season.

Passing yards per game: Bradford 337.1, Mayfield 323.6.

Completion percentage: Mayfield .712, Bradford .679.

Yards per pass: Mayfield 10.75, Bradford 9.8.

Touchdown passes per game: Bradford 3.57, Mayfield 3.
