After all the talk and Josh Heupel reflection, the former Sooner quarterback and offensive coordinator went back into Norman and came out with a huge win. His sixth-ranked Tennessee team took it to Oklahoma, controlling the entire game and running out the clock in the second half.
Heupel received a warm ovation during the pregame, as Oklahoma welcomed him back with a tribute on the jumbotron. He acknowledged the tribute, tapping his heart and waving to the crowd while his team went through warmups.
And then it was all business.
Tennessee capitalized on several Oklahoma mistakes in the first half, despite making plenty of their own.
