If the No. 19 Texas Longhorns are to improve to 5-1 on Saturday with a win over the No. 7 Oklahoma Sooners, it will likely be largely due to Texas’ secondary holding its own weight and then some against an explosive Oklahoma passing attack.
Failing to do so almost certainly means Texas’ four-game winning streak ends at four.
Baker Mayfield is now playing for a paycheck, but yet again, a Heisman candidate is lined up behind center in Kyler Murray, and at his disposal is some of the most dynamic pass catchers that college football has to offer; namely, Marquise “Hollywood” Brown and CeeDee Lamb.
