There have been takeaways and stat breakdowns and oral histories, all paying homage to one of the great offensive games in college history. With Mayfield, the No. 1 pick in this year's draft, and the Browns hosting NFL MVP candidate Mahomes and the Chiefs on Sunday in their first meeting since that game, the news angle is clear.
