DALLAS — The game was still in the balance at 27-20 with a little less than seven minutes remaining in the fourth quarter when the No. 6 Oklahoma Sooners did what they had done virtually all game — put the defense for the No. 11 Texas Longhorns in difficult situations by formation and motion, then make defenders miss in the open field.
First it was Kennedy Brooks running for 42 yards on the critical drive’s first play, then Rhamondre Stevenson gaining 24 yards and forcing a missed tackle by junior safety Chris Brown, who went down with a fractured forearm.
