Mose Frazier caught 10 passes for 128 yards but never scored. Anthony miller and Tevin Jones only ahd 9 catches between them but three were for scores. Henderson caught the other TD pass. Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield was a modest 15 for 22 for 212 yards and 2TDs. People talk about Leonard Fournette but what about the Sooner’s 5-11 237 Samaje Perine, who gained 201 yards rushing in this game on 23 carries and scored 4TDs. Then there’s Joe Mixon who rushed for 154 yards and 2 scores on only 16 carries. We missed a great game!
