pepper championship week and the first time since 1903 there's a Red River rematch Texas beat Oklahoma in October 20 miles away in down since the Sooners old Lee Wallace this season they'll try to avenge that today while winning their fourth straight big 12 title hi everybody and welcome i'm sean mcdonagh along with Todd Blackledge joined in just a moment by Holly Rowe delighted to have you with us for the start of a great championship Saturday of college football Todd this is as big a game as any in the country today they're playing for a conference championship obviously huge for both but in the case of Oklahoma now number five in the college football playoff rankings the committee will make their choices this weekend how does it look in your opinion for the Sooners they've had struggles on defense but a historic season on offense that has made them extra special I really think if all the favorite teams win tonight Alabama Oklahoma Ohio State Oklahoma is in all they have to do is win the game today but that's easier said than done because this Texas team is very capable of winning again they demonstrated on October 6th at the State Fairgrounds in Dallas it was one of the best games of the season at college football the highest scoring Red River game ever Texas one forty eight forty five both quarterbacks were tremendous they were absolutely terrific they're both fierce competitors to Tyler Murray was brilliant particularly in the court [Applause] [Music] [Applause] dazzling 67-yard touchdown run but he had two costly turnovers in the game in the ball game on the other side Marie he was spectacular for over 300 himself he ran the ball the yards but three bruising redzone touchdowns and I think for Texas to have a chance to win again today Sam Mellinger has to do the same thing Kyler Murray is going to do his thing Sam has to play the same kind of game there we talked to Sam last night he said he will run the ball even though Holly Rowe he's been dealing with a shoulder injury here in the second half of the season against he's pretty much been dealing with it every day happy to do amounts of rehab but he says because he's at eight recovery that he has and as you said Shawn we have Tom Herman and Sam will he have a more conservative style he loves to seek contact and they said absolutely not they want to win this game at the end of the game because we were out you're good wood since 2008 it's also their first appearance in the big 12 championship game since the 2009 season [Music] [Applause] conference title three conference championships is second-most in big 12 history [Applause] 96 has dominated the [Applause] big 12 the dr. pepper big 12 championship on ABC presented by Jared will continue after this message of the word from our ABC stations you are watching dr. pepper championship week [Music] [Applause] from beautiful AT&T Stadium in Arlington Texas first time since 1923 these teams have met outside of the State Fair in Dallas site of the annual Red Rivers showdown interestingly Oklahoma won the toss and deferred Lincoln roughly choosing not to put the nation's best offense out there first though Austin Seibert kicks off and though jordan humphrey takes a knee one yard deep into the end zone so here comes Sam Elega and the Texas offense sophomore from Austin Texas for more than twenty seven hundred yards just four interceptions two in the first game of the year against Maryland then he won a conference in school records 308 passes in a row without interception before he threw too in their regular season finale victory at Kansas grew up dreaming of being the Texas quarterback this is his biggest game as a longhorn and he swings it out to little Jordyn Humphrey trying to weave through the truck picking a nice tackle made by the corner trade or one [Applause] one of the things that Texas did very well on the first game was you big receivers will join Humphrey and Colin Johnson against these smaller corners for Oklahoma Humphrey 6 for Johnson is 6 6 they tried the Roderick Trey Watson and this Oklahoma defense which has struggled mightily throughout the season trying to make its point to the college football playoff committee that they are national semi-final worthy those of the matchups you talked about Todd that could be a problem for Oklahoma [Applause] the size advantage certainly favors particularly on 50/50 type balls hey Watson the running back when in motion Hellinger given plenty of time [Applause] six foot six inch Colin Johnson winning the 50-50 ball against five foot ten inch trim round he's in the slide he gives a little impact that really froze the defender and then Sam throws it up for and that's what you do when you have that kind of a mismatch on the outside 32 yard gain Oklahoma has given up at least 40 points in each of its last four games and they've won all four the first team to history of college football to do that just for Colin Johnson he was open he was wide open nobody covered it if Sam throws this lower it's a touchdown nobody picked up Colin Johnson in the middle of the field and the ball was overthrown by Hellinger Oklahoma doing something interesting personnel-wise they're playing with three linebackers on the field trying to slow down the Texas running game they left themselves very vulnerable to that drug taken in 10 Texas [Applause] normally Oklahoma's played a lot of nipple defense a lot of flexibility at the line to change the play that's another touchdown if he's accurate he might be a little bit too amped up at the start of this title game we'll Jordan Humphrey was open but watch right here he's confused he doesn't he blitz this late nobody picks up little Jordan Humphrey and two plays in a row major breakdowns in the Oklahoma secondary but Texas not able to capitalize on you're right probably a little bit amped up that ball just taken off on him but oh boy two guys running down the middle of the defense locked open in the first possession down in ten running out of time [Applause] little Jordyn Humphrey stumbles down boy for a first down at the 25-yard line of Oklahoma such a big body at me lo Jordan Humphrey is 6 for 225 pounds he's working on Norwood and he just keeps him away from the football does a great job of shielding the defender from the ball and then gaining a couple extra yards after the catch which he specializes in don't free their leading receiver for the year now with 74 catches he caught 9 for 138 in their regular season classic win against ou4 night Curtis Bolton may the tackles second leading tackler for the Souter's watch the block by the H back right here Andrew back does a nice job of sealing the outside of the inside run a nice job picking the spot by trade second and two Watson yanked down again by Bolton fifth-year senior had an interesting career mostly a special teams player fire all his career starts have come this season and he's the best defensive players on their team very active they move around in a lot of spots and again this whole first possession out Oklahoma plank primarily with Bolton Caleb Kelly and Kenneth Murray all three linebackers on the field at the same time they're not playing with a Nickelback Ruffin McNeil the defensive coordinator here the last six games took over for Mike Stoops who was to the loss to Texas Texas this is where he is most dangerous in red zone or short yardage watch the [Applause] yeah three blockers going right into the hole and Eleanor three and takes it into the answer [Applause] three touchdowns rushing against him the last time same kind of thing thirty short give it to him you're gonna be concerned about running the ball with your shoulder such as he is he said not in this game his 12th rushing touchdown of the season Texas first on the board in the big 12 championship game this season Taco Bell is celebrating student sections passionate fans like these Texas Longhorns by awarding the best student section of the year you'd go to espn.com slash Taco Bell to see if your team made this week's rankings and to see how your school can compete interesting start to this game is kinda Marie gets ready to go to work for Oklahoma this was the sixth time this season the Sooners have won the opening toss it's the first time they deferred you wouldn't put the best offense in the country out there on the field with a good chance to take an early lead rather than a very poor defense with a good chance you're going to be behind as they are when they get the ball for the first time the point I would make here sam millinger look what hand he's carrying the football in his left hand in that highlight that Holly showed before the game the two plays against Baylor and Iowa State when he got injured Andrea graffitied he was carrying in his right hand he's a right-handed quarterback he's not gonna slide but that's a way of protecting his right shoulder there's Tyler Murray chance to make a Heisman Trophy statement one last one before the voters turn in their ballots this weekend he handed it off to Trey sermon and a tough nine yard run taken down by cadence turns the defensive newcomer of the year the big 12 [Music] everything they do starts with their running game Tyler Murray has been spectacular but this offensive line and their ability to run the football is what sets the table for everything he does 12 offensive player the largely because of that skill of the from people leave it but it looks like there's nowhere for him to go Brandon Jones got him across the boundary but it's an Oklahoma first down Brandon Jones got missed a few games with an ankle injury had to come out of the Kansas game a week ago with a head injury they are really happy to have him back because he is their best space tackler and that's important against a guy like Tyler Murray and some of these receivers and running backs who find themselves in open spaces Oklahoma the leading scoring team in the country number one in total [Music] [Applause] as a result of that tackle into Texas 37 yard line it was Chris Boyd first-team Opik 12 this year the corner who took him down Reggie Smith is the referee leading this big 12 officiating crew Pittsburgh I talked to him a little bit before the game he was as excited to do the game as we are well it's an honor personal foul face mask 15 your jewelry would be first watch Kyler Murray used his eyes to move the safety Katy Stearns he looks to the left moves the safety in coverage beautiful work with his eyes that time by Kyler marine there's the penalty at the end of the catch an Oklahoma a great field position at the 22 averaging 8 yards per play this year that would shattered the single-season fps finished the season that number some confusion along the offensive line is Marie was trying to communicate Oh bill the big fellas up trials their birth timeout of the half with 1005 to go in the first quarter the 2018 dr. pepper big 12 Football Championship presented by Jared on ABC is brought to you by ice cold dr. pepper the official drink of fans bill and Jared dare to be devoted inside AT&T Stadium the Oklahoma trying to win its fourth straight big 12 title Navin won four conference championships in a row since the mid 80s under Barry Switzer to win for conference titles in a row the Florida Gators in the mid-90s in the SEC Texas leading 7 to nothing but Oklahoma on the move first in town at the Texas 22 the loss of a yard is texts his leading tackler for the air Gary Johnson made the stop and you see the speed of Gary Johnson areas right here but watch out quickly [Applause] leverage Devante Davis the corner who is in good position as well second and 11 tracer tea runningback been bothered by left foot and ankle injury in recent weeks and just five carries in their rousing win at West Virginia we could go last night he gets the call looking for a hole behind the terrific offensive line he gets inside the 20 Geoffrey McCulloch made the tentacle one thing I've learned in the last three weeks of be in the big 12 is you gotta get critical stops if you're a defense this is an opportunity for a critical stop for Texas in the red zone on third down the play fake by Tyler Martin belongs to time to the end zone get up and intercept it [Applause] Jones into the hands of cadence turns there is a flag down [Applause] well that was a beautiful play by Brandon Jones I don't know what the flag is the receiver actually ran indicating Stearns after the incompletion but Brandon Jones who we mentioned they're so happy to have back did a great job of closing with speed on that route by c/d lamb and knocked the ball away [Applause] prior to the pass personal foul face mask defense number two [Applause] another critical penalty on drive by the same guy Chris boy with the same thing yellow facemask calls against Chris Boyd senior from Gilmer Texas and first-team all-conference players we said a moment ago he's working on the other side of the field working on Marquis Brown areas at the top of the screen in coverage on Marquis Brown and as he was feeling himself getting beat reach that left hand up and got ahold of the face manner bonus for Oklahoma a new set of downs on the 10-yard line Tom Herman the Texas head coach ongoing conversation among the officials the result of the previous play was an interception the previous play is under further review Divini say prior to the fowl was the penalty bill what is what is that does that shake out if the penalty occurred prior to the interception which apparently it did then the offense gets to keep the ball half the distance to the goal with the automatic first down replay has to be reviewing something else on the play I did not see anything that looked like targeting but it doesn't matter if it's an interception or not because Oklahoma's gonna have the ball right that's correct so why are they wasting the time to look at this well we're going to find out in a second what they review is for but I'm right now I'm perplexed at stop it so Lincoln Riley clearly is too David Alvarez thin by official on his sideline [Applause] I'm perplexed in John Slade got rules expert bill Lemonnier is - at least for the moment ruling on the field stands its first down which is a little bit anyway the penalty is going to trump the interception so it doesn't matter whether it was a catch not the interception or not I don't know they're a little confused in the replay both but on we go to inside the 10-yard line I on here this part of the field for Oklahoma Kalka Tara he's right here in the slot gonna bait wide-receiver skills after the fake to surrender fighters - looking for craft Alcantara along the backline to the end zone it was good coverage downfield by Texas allenbury wasn't able to go anywhere quickly with the football I'm just trying to get the ball late to Calcutta good coverage on first down as you said time so hard to get stops against has given them four more downs usually when you give this man at his talented cast around them [Applause] certainty stays not as fainted lunges for the goal line come down just short it looked like he would be stopped well short of the goal line he kept breaking tackles and twisting his way to the goal line now this is their fret butter play the counter trap they pull the backside guard and tackle Cody Ford the right tackle with a huge block before the ball gets to the plane look at it from the dr. pepper pile on camera third down from inside the line gary johnson read this so quickly watch him read react gary is he's going to shoot this gap right here and beat sermon behind and he wheeler there as well is a critical stop after a critical mistake cybers had another great year the big 12 special teams player of the year field goal kicker kickoff man and that one is up and good from 20 yards but anytime you can make Oklahoma settle for a field goal the way their offenses in this year you have to be thrilled this is just the start of championship Saturday it will one day 3:30 Eastern Time Memphis and number eight UCF for the American title then a take number two Clemson trying to cement its spot of the college football playoff taking on Pittsburgh in the ACC championship game both of those championship games right here on ABC and of course on the ESPN rankings brought to you by AT&T certainly Ohio State even those UCF fans hoping out holding out some hope that they might move up into the top four a lot of folks around the country Chiri against Oklahoma today to open up the path to get ahead of the suitors well the most interesting thing will be in Georgia what happened to upset Alabama Georgia played their best football the season right now really make things interesting over the weekend with both SCC teams then get in there'd be no room for Oklahoma Ohio State the touchback the float of Seibert so here comes Sam Peleg again curious to see what Oklahoma does defensively this possession that first possession they've played more of a base defense with four defensive linemen and three linebackers anticipating Texas running the football Texas countered five throwing against that defense three four five on that drive for 48 yards and the two incompletions will wide open receivers the air bail carried for the 16-yard touchdown moving along the right beside the offensive line Elijah Rodriguez the rake guard that too eager all-star offense number 72 five-yard penalty second season for Tom Herman seven and six a year ago they spoke last night about the benefit for everybody being in the second year together same system on each side of the ball the continuity has helped particularly Ellen Oh Jordan Humphrey he went spinning to the 26 it'll be second down in time Sam eligor has so benefitted you mentioned only the four interceptions but all of his measurables as a quarterback if it proved this year and really just his decision-making more than anything so much more comfortable very confident [Applause] seven minutes to go in the quarter a leader on target first down Devin Duvernay tackling Kenneth Bari Oklahoma's leading tackle ban for the year beautiful protection watch the time that Sam has to just stay there comfortably surveyed the field Duvernay kind of the Forgotten guy the slot receiver but the fastest on this Texas receiving core state champ of the hundred meters here in Texas at high school around in 10.27 100-meter was a lateral by Colin Johnson was well-covered by trade norwood the discipline by the sooner defense that time norwood is good position they had to eligible receivers they were both cover my question would be getting yardage the conventional way on just about every play why do you need to go into the bag of tricks right now I'll coach yourself Tom Hartman for a few years at Ohio State at Nebraska before that well respected offensive coordinator one of the truly good guys in the business as well Ingram chopped down along the near sideline by Caleb Kelly excellent tackle by Caleb [Music] and 14 tackles he returned one of the couples for a touchdown I was a heck of a play there on second verse 14 tackles last week against the Mountaineers a career-high for the junior from Fresno California they blitz him on occasion the suitors are crowding the line with rust just three but others Hey got back across the line to that they only dropped three but they had both kind of as a spy now he's not gonna rush he's going to sit right back here and watch Allinger they only rush three and when Sam starts to leave the pocket Bolton is there to kind of wrap him up there's a good critical stop for the Oklahoma defense Bryant food chefs key freshman from Sydney Australia the cousin of the great Conor Michael Dixon three-year starter in Texas who left a year early it's done at the Seattle Seahawks that's a [Applause] start to the year he'd been much better the second half but that was reminiscent of the early part of the year I'm gonna market at the 35-yard line 23 yard punt [Applause] the dr. pepper big 12 championship presented by Jaron Texas leading Oklahoma with five minutes to go in the first quarter at seven to three time for today's game fact a win today would mark Oklahoma's fourth straight big 12 championship the last power 5 program to winning four straight conference titles Florida 93 to 96 to the speedy Marquis Brown and he's ahead to the 41 to gain of 6 we talked about this Oklahoma offense the numbers that they have put up this solutely staggering Lincoln Riley had the Heisman winner in the first pick of the draft last year Baker Mayfield even better numbers this year historically good numbers [Applause] Janet's incomplete cadance turns the freshman safety had the coverage lane he had his hands on out for a bit but no flags analog incompletion yeah I think Kate Stearns got away with it there tugged on the back of the Jersey a little bit Marquis Brown ran by the freshman safety and right there I didn't get much of the Jersey beautiful throw though nonetheless spike I love her threaten you deep if you leave single coverage particularly a safety guarding a lot receiver like Markie [Applause] down at four and Isildur spread the field another time out Lincoln Riley a little confusion on his third outlaw [Applause] Lincoln Reilly is the play caller for the suitors [Music] this week Rob Mullins the college football playoff chair talking about Oklahoma's historic offense and he wasn't making it up they're averaging eight point nine yards per play the record is eight point six by Hawaii back in 2006 300 game rocks rushing and passing at a game five times this season they've done that six times in the history of the program prior to this year Marie on third down and four connects with miles tees for a first down to the 50 yard line they're the only team in the country Todd with more than 30 rushing touchdowns and passing touchdowns and they nearly have 14 of each and eight straight games with 45 points is also the FPS record it's been unbelievable and Kyler Murray's ability to run has just taken them to a different level this year Texas bling the snap of the ball and miles tease another catch he didn't have a catch at West Virginia the two on this drive give him just 9 for the year they're all so deep that wide receiver that's at 8 yard game I also take this offensive line this year is better than the unit they move some guy to some different spots at the new center and they have been outstanding the Mendes freshman center really all across the five eight offensive line with NFL futures his Creed Humphrey Kennedy brushed the ball carry he didn't get the man in the line quickly and Kennedy Brooks did he get it up it looks like he got to the 40-yard line before he was driven back by Gary Johnson among others and it's an Oklahoma first up great opportunity right here now after the conversion for a play-action deep shot see if they get the look that they want they do some really unique things with their play-action because they run that counter trap so effectively single coverage with Marquis Brown right now at the top of the screen we might be changing to play again and he sends my steez back to the left play clock two three and to fake the Kennedy brush and that's good as he tried Marquis Brown well there is nothing that Chris Boyd could do on this one the first two penalties he made the mistake this ball was a little bit under thrown pass interference [Applause] it's a 15-yard automatic as marques brows slowed-down chris voyages couldn't put the brakes on and ran into him it's the right call but really unavoidable for Chris boy but they went after him Tyler Murray changed the play at the line of scrimmage when he saw that single coverage outside and lucky if you catch barkis Brown when he slows down he doesn't just low down very often Jr out of Hollywood Florida [Applause] [Music] Kennedy books one of the most productive running backs in the country in recent weeks he was number five on the depth chart at start of the year but injuries moved him up to number one [Music] the yards least 165 on the ground it was interesting though Herman described - talking about Oklahoma's offensive one said they're so good it's got a bit pluck and play for alcohol Rodney Anderson in the second game against UCLA he was their starter and a great back but this unit upfront has been they've been able to play with a lot of different people back at that tailback position would be very productive under 2-minutes to go on the corner they again run the play clock all the way down pressure after murder he throws it away Anthony wheeler came on a blitz taught Orlando the defensive coordinator for Texas said you can't just let him stand back there all day you have to mix it up and come back trip every now and then they forced him out of the pocket McCullen did a great job of pinning him on the sidelines and not letting him turn the corner and getting up fielder's Todd after himself at Wisconsin he came sprinting onto the field before the game I mean I had to get out of his way he was sprinting hard he had his game face on well before this would kick them last night into meetings third down and seven and a Texas timeout Texas calls for first timeout of the half 30 seconds it's on Orlando tremendous respect for Kyla Maurice I don't think I've ever seen anybody like him and also for Lincoln Ryland he said he's as good a play caller as there is and he admires greatly the Oklahoma offensive system designed by Lincoln Riley yeah and you know he said that the thing about it is is it's it's it's fairly simple in its concepts and they do a great job of fusing max protection and their play action and their ability to run the football and it's obviously a very quarterback friendly offense as Baker Mayfield flourished in it and so has Kyler Murray and as you take a look at how Kyler Murray stacks up with the other top Heisman candidates to a taco - wait Haskins he is right up there and this should go down to the final weekend as it is [Applause] 10% of the Heisman voters have already passed their ballots that's a very low they're due on Monday [Applause] look in the championship settings at these three contenders perhaps some others as well third and seven Murray now this is a design quarterback draw and they're going to lead with Kennedy Brooks alright so Karla is going to show past the lines can all show past but it's a design quarterback run with Kennedy Brooks as the lead blocker Marie gets the off day she needs and then gets down [Applause] [Music] yes there's some question about whether he got to the line to gain they're going to take a look at it on the field is that the quarterback slid after he made the line to game that spot is under further review so that's where the slide is initiated I thank you they write where they'll mark this down once you started to the slide that's where they marked you down that's the first down he's clearly passed in you see the yard marker the Rd game was right directly on the 15 yard line they mark the ball on the 14 ordinarily the big 12 has a command center for officiating we saw that last week we're in Morgantown but that operation is here in the stadium today based on the proximity or speaking of proximity that college football playoff committee not far away watching all sequester's hey sequestered if you will the one thing we know from doing that mock is they may be sequestered but there's plenty of food in that room no doubt there is a lot of food in that room we were fortunate enough mid season to take part in a mock exercise here in the Dallas Fort Worth area where they told us how they go through the process of selecting the team's ranking the team's not an easy job you talked about the heisman backdrop you're a Heisman voter Holley is a Heisman voter I feel very privileged to have a Heisman vote as well none of us have fought there review the ruling on the field stands is called first down Bashan and every but every voter has their own criteria for me one of the biggest things I want to see is how do these guys play in the biggest games of the year and the biggest games started last week and they continue this week so I want to see all three of those guys then we're on that I wanna see him playing these big games down there are some years pretty and clearly established at least to the minds of many is indicative that most of these voters want to see more from the leading contenders Kennedy Brooks we are approaching the end of the first quarter only has 86 yards of offense and so if you get a toe Tata Orlando in the first quarter you're gonna hold them to 86 yards and only three points you would have taken that in a heartbeat Texas's holding there eight point nine for the season her play for Oklahoma we should point out Texas held them to six point nine with [Applause] - but 6.9 was the fewest yards to play had in a cave although they score 45 points they had to use their last timeout because Riley is livid he's used all three timeouts in the first quarter the last time he used the timeout he thought the officials did not reset the play clock this time he's upset with his quarterback because that's something the caller Murray has to take control of on the field they have used all three timeouts in the first 15 minutes of play let's send you down to the field here's Holly roll of course Oklahoma was in this big 12 championship game last year but Cuyler Murray is new to this stage he's performed well on a big stage all year but when I talk to Lincoln Riley of Oklahoma before the game he said you know the words I've said to Tyler are be yourself you can't try to do too much know there's been back and forth shots across the bow all week with he and Ellen gur and his Texas team so he wants him to settle down and be himself but we're seeing them just not be unfit on the same page right now just not getting the plate Falls in confusion at the line they've got to settle down and be himself because he's done pretty good he's used to playing in big games Tyler Murray in the stadium then well-chronicled he was 43 and Oh as a high school quarterback in Allen Texas nearby won three straight titles all here will they extend their streak of touchdowns in the first quarter doesn't work when I get Kennedy Brooks driven back by Brecon and Hager he's been one of those players most vocal in some of the conversation back and forth around this rivalry [Music] was it very good the dr. pepper big 12 championship on ABC presented by chair will continue after this message in the word from our ABC stations just wait outside the games are and this part like inside [Music] outside AT&T Stadium it's a beautiful day in the dallas-fort Worth Metroplex aerial coverage brought to you by State Farm here to help light go right 70 degrees outdoors underneath the roof Jerry World Jerry Jones here today big win for his convoy through two nights ago a fourth straight Wednesday shut down the DeLorean sinks [Applause] down and six Texas showing blitz leading 73 the first play of the second quarter it is a Texas place and it's incomplete marques trying to make it over the shoulder catch and Kris Boyd who had a very rough first quarter with three penalties had good coverage there that's why you have to have short-term memory if you're a corner you got to keep fighting he does a great job of knocking that ball out late this is a beautiful throw by Murray it's a catch until the very end and Chris boy does a great job of staying with the play and ripping that ball out [Music] dr. pepper pile on camera so here's I already connected four short-range in this one's from 27 the defenders faces on the Texas side goal attempts all day long they could be in line for the biggest way that this group of Texas players has had conference title game for the first time since 2009 the best thing they're doing right now is they are stopping the overall run Oklahoma has 40 yards on 12 carries that's a little over 3 yards a carry coming into the game best in the nation averaging 7 yards every time they run the football so slowing down that Oklahoma run here early in the game recipe for Texas's success on defense so far we mentioned their first appearance in the title game since o9 he should point out there was no big 12 championship game from 2011 32 thousand 16 they brought it back a year ago won by Oklahoma back in 1996 Texas won three open touchback kicked by Austin cyber [Music] tomorrow the explosive reveal of the college football playoff semi-final matchups they'll be in the capital and orange bone with a Goodyear cotton ball to be played on Saturday December 29th the Cotton Bowl Classic will be here risa the guys will unveil the final top 25 but area wants to know there's Oklahoma better than Ohio State won the big debate yeah I think their strength of schedule is a little bit better I think it it comes down to also last eight maybe had a better win Hellinger going deep on first down the catch man Colin Johnson there was contact the question is did he push off that's what it looked like from here and that's what Parnell motley is saying to the officiating crew led by head linesman there Mike molar [Applause] the Colin Johnson slowed down initially [Applause] same kind of play that Boyd got called for interference on watch Colin Johnson sloped down at the end of this route and when he slows down motley makes contact I think that's a no call myself I don't know that you need to call pass interference on that point there was contact to me it looked like he was Paula Johnson and it telling her after the 31-yard pass play runs ahead for six he's inside the 42 the oklahoma 38 taken down by neville Gallimore and kenneth pari his ability is a runner the last two years against oklahoma has been huge 18 carries in October and 22 carries the year before in the Red River game [Applause] [Applause] locks to maneuvering around the line disparage on both sides the play clock at two time single coverage Johnson motley riding in the hallway as coverage by motley one of the things the reason that motley is playing a lot right now you make a little change in their coverage they're using trade or wood number thirteen was normally a starting quarter and molly was the third corner Molly's a little bit bigger at 6-foot 177 pounds a train Norwood is playing more safety with motley at the corner Pat's pick get delivered by get out of the hands of Trey Watson really nice play by trade Brown he was in perfect position they're trying to get a little rough play and get the back out clean but it wasn't man-to-man coverage so that's why Trey Brown was able to stay in his position and make the plug the top Marvin Chavez left stun outscore Oklahoma's not likely to be a low-scoring game so at least for the moment he's going for it on fourth down and four at the 38 yard line leading 7 to 6 early in the second quarter with floor walk Crusaders Heyliger first I'm Colin Johnson even a turn out to the catch just take angle after the catch he runs underneath the round and that enables Colin Johnson to add about 12 more yards to this short completion nice pitch and catch with Ehlinger and Colin Johnson but poorly played by motley on the corner we marked the ball back at the 15 23 yard game then a big start for Johnson [Music] [Applause] chased up by Robert Barnes there have been comparisons in his running style to Tim Tebow and I think [Music] hunts it up yeah he hunts up the contact he wants to try to to run through people he's not gonna try to make you miss takes care of the football and he's hard to bring down to the ground and this is where he normally likes to run in this part of the field inside the ten second and three Watson transfer from Cal gets them the first down first good goal inside the five nice addition to this team's giving up some leader shifts of maturity their other back is a true freshman kiante Ankara they line up very quickly will Ehlinger try to do it again he gave it off to Watson you squirted off the original hit but it looks like they're going to mark him down near the three yard line [Music] on the custom position for Oklahoma its board at least one touchdown in 24 straight games management two field goals in the first woman today this is this formation now his quarterback run to the left Oklahoma got victimized by that in the first game so they have more defenders over here than they did in October but this formation suggests Ellender running takes it up the middle [Music] [Applause] let's counter quarterback counter to the right there [Music] beautiful counter to the adjustment Oklahoma's defense made Sam elegant told us last night the game against Oklahoma in October was the best game he's played as the quarterback at Texas he was to praise those around him for giving him the opportunity praise for the offensive line here deckers extra point bakes at 14 - since the time of Herman and [Music] tipped back the offensive coordinator for Texas told us last night Sam elegir believes he was born put on this earth to be the quarterback out at the University of Texas it's clear that he cherishes this opportunity to play this position in his program and he's playing it exceedingly well we asked about his shoulder and concerned he said not this game like this Dameron knickers kick off their kids trade brown here's mint berry back in the studio Sean checking it now for the all-state mayhem moment Akron in South Carolina staff goes over the Zips head into the end zone Dee Bost Ambu recovers all cocky right now 21 3 in Columbia [Applause] two field goals for Oklahoma I believe I said they're both in the first core wanted to each quarter so far for the Sooners the three points in the first quarter they're seized in the wall of the previous event seven done three times this year trace sermon the head firmly - that's all up first down I really think link is gonna have to start airing it out a little bit Texas is really getting a lot of bodies around the running game doing a great job of negating any decent runs here early in the ballgame Marie watch the time deep close single coverage for bags and by Marquis Brown that time birthday against Vontae Davis a 46-yard game for Oklahoma this is kind of quarters coverage so it ends up being single coverage outside Davis had outside leverage and Marky's grab did a beautiful job beating the cop rage as he secured the catch all the way through to the ground he did mr. completed past the previous Marky's knows it he made a beautiful effort out of it as he was going to the ground he lost control of the football the Texas fans cheering ready screaming wanting a replay review as they saw the original replays the ball can touch the ground but you have to maintain that control all the way through the catch and through hitting the ground and Mark he's proud not able to do that I think we saw even though he didn't make the catch part of what is getting the attention of the NFL people because he's not big - matter of fact one of the reasons why I didn't have an FBS offer and he wound up in junior college out of high school in South Florida was he was 138 pounds they list him at five foot ten that might be a little bit generous but he can't go up yet and get it in addition to his blistering speed the nine catches for 131 yards and two touchdowns when these teams met in October we saw him put on a show last week in Morgantown he he's been a little bit banged up midway through the year but he has come back healthy now and he is just always a threat vertically to your defense table last week in Morgantown he had five receptions in that game of 25 yards for more at 243 yards receiving for the game second highest in a game in Oklahoma history looked like they had a big one there there's Marquis Brown was trying to break his own record receiving yardage in a game after further review the pass hit the ground [Applause] the clock operator please reset to 10 minutes 45 seconds [Music] [Applause] yeah what text has been able to do so far in his game is do a nice job against the run give up those kind of plays plays over the top of the defense situation right now with a simmer averaging nearly nine yards per play for the season they're averaging four yards per play to this point so explosive as we saw the regular season meeting when they rally from 21 down to tie against the Lord's bodies crowd stood as he approached gonna mark him a yard short if Davis doesn't make this kind of a hit marques browser turned us up field and score at least get the first down but Davis hits him right before he gets to the marker and he hit him high which did not able enable Marquis Brown to get any further slava Davis finished him off that's a pun when in West Virginia last Friday night [Applause] not a great kick we'll Jordan Humphrey Pat fielding pucks for the first time this year for that reason Tom herself getting tired of watching pucks bounce around on the ground the 2018 dr. pepper big 12 Football Championship presented by Jared on ABC is brought to you by ice-cold dr. pepper the official drink of fans Ville Pacific life experienced the power of pacific and chevrolet chevy is ur JT power dependability awards across cars trucks and suv's Texas's last big 12 title 2009 last time they were in the title game they beat Nebraska Colt McCoy the quarterback and Mack Brown the coach one of his 158 wins is Texas coach only down royal with more 240 for all time for back many of em at North Carolina and we congratulate our dear colleague as he returns to coaching as the head coach once again of the Tar Heels [Applause] by Colin Johnson after the catch and we appreciate what back did for us it's college football's game up to the College Football Hall of Fame dinner on Tuesday night New York looking forward to seeing back and Sheraton he's going into the Hall of Fame this is pretty good with your athletic director you can say we're hiring literally a Hall of Fame coach Fitz Young among the longhorn royalty [Music] this quarterback on the national championship team in 2005 horns leading 14 to 6 they have shut down the nation's number one offense nearly doubled them up in yardage Sam elegant 13 down running for both of the touchdowns in this game not a lot they're about three pursued across the boundary by Trey Brown Sean it's interesting to be as [Music] frustrated on the bench but to me the reason Texas is returning I think to being a contender again is because they finally are getting some stable quarterback playing again Tim Allen air his steps this year he's doing things that haven't been done since Colt McCoy offense young with a quarterback and that was a long stretch with poor quarterback club but to turnover in coaching staffs as well they're for Oklahoma just his second sack of the season really nice play by Bledsoe working on Cosme they like this right tackle but Bledsoe just overpowers him just kind of gets him back man is also there on either side and they forced a punt so a nice stop by the Oklahoma defense what they need here's boot chefs Tina's first punt was a shank CD Lam dangers return man back I hate they were closed on [Applause] fifteen run back excellent footwork is he made it to the 43 there is a flag down far sideline along the line of scrimmage we talked about the Oklahoma offense but one of the great areas of improvement of this sooner team this year has been in their return game and the special team Seibert obviously has been great special teams player of the year but their return game has really stepped up it's against Oklahoma defense number 11 lined up in the mood to zone correction moved into the neutral side five-yard penalty from the previous spot replay fourth down Parnell motley moved into the neutral zone this is hip right here out on the gutter they put a lot of pressure on the pot but he stepped into the neutral zone and that drew the flag see if they go after the pun again to your point last year Oklahoma was 97th in the country in punt return average 5.6 this year there's 16 yards per punt return lamb himself is 14.3 return of 66 this season 4 cd lam sophomore out of Richmond Texas to block kicks returned for touchdowns this year already too say so effort by P Chesky but the coverage is excellent this time by Josh Thompson they're leading special teams tacklers for the year there is another flag down this one is at the Oklahoma 45 yard line line judge Franklin bunk indicating it is a hold against Oklahoma after that sack Oklahoma looked to be able to get decent field position but now after a couple penalties are going to be backed up during the kick Holi receiving team [Applause] [Music] miles T's called for the hold take a look as you're going on the right side think right there they're holding PJ lock number 11 there it is the takedown and and again what started out looking like Oklahoma would have really good field position backed up inside the 15 did the Texas defense credit well-coached and they're executing very well as well they've held Homa 296 yards of offense and we're midway through the second quarter Marie fancy deal and taydens turns finally got about but a big play for o you to the 41 yard line of Texas watch CD layup at the top of your screen on the right side he's gonna fake the freshman safety he kind of set him up at Cuyler Murray let her perfectly for the big play so concern is the defender that Marie is going to turn the corner and run it tray sermon well to stay on his feet for a moment then he got driven back after a five-yard gain and the Texas defense saw that in the regular season being Murray is Todd Earl Anderson ran by heart fast he is three-man rush [Applause] now they said the forth after a man city wheeler again [Applause] watch anthony wheeler the work he does on this play now here he is he's not rushing the quarterback but he's got eyes on the quarterback so he's trying to stay in a position to mir and takes it beautiful to the south line forces about after a short game that is not easy to do Marie's gonna turn the corner Anthony wheeler their second leading tackler for the year or their five team captain under six and a half to go till halftime third properly for down territory see because there's constant Meyer taken down by Gary Johnson a yard and a half short of the first down they are in long field goal range but Lincoln Riley is calling a play nice job on Meyer just kind of finding a soft spot in that zone defense [Applause] here on this during situation give him a rough Pikachu tray sermon and Kennedy Brooks the running back on either hip its Brooks on Murray's right push down and much more Z slid through inside the 28-yard line actually think they got away with a little food fit right here early by Kody Ford before the snap got away with it no flag nicely blocked by Kennedy Brooks and a first down for Oklahoma [Music] first and ten to the end zone singing touchdown [Applause] see delays in the slot he's running the deep pose calamari looking right first then he comes back he's got single coverage and he runs by Brandon Jones the safety cadence turns the other safety knot there to help beautiful read by Kyler Murray and laid that ball out perfectly for lamb yards no question about possession clean catch by c/d land this 10th receiving touchdown of the season his seventeenth in just 27 career games for Oklahoma Seibert the extra point 501 to go till halftime the Red River rematch shaping up as another classic Tyler Murray an oklahoma sooners their first touchdown of the game to make it a one-point game 501 away from the capital one half time for for Kevin the Gandhi Tom and Bill May and Jim Moore of big shoes to fill stepping in for Mack Brown [Applause] Austen side that machine and no chance for return or kickoff for touchbacks for the seniors from Belleville Illinois take a look at the touchdown get here see deal and he's gonna run the post on Brandon Jones but wants you to watch his Kyler brewery is going to use his eyes and fake looking that way a little bit and watch the safety the freshman cadence turns is going to move towards that back a little bit and as soon as he did that he was on the deep throw to see deal and just that little bit of movement by Kyler Murray with the eyes moved to safety and opened up that deep throw to see DeLand Sam Bellinger [Applause] lots of the running back and whistles stop the play for a flag I think they've got the playoff error you come off the sidelines to start a new possession and you don't get a place snap before the play clock that's 100 percent on the quarterback and you just can't afford those negative kind of plays like that and a game like this [Applause] [Applause] the middle [Applause] and gets wrestled down at the 30 but he gained 10 on first and 15 Ronnie Perkins and Caleb Kelly the stuff he was looking to his left to Colin Johnson who is going to run a stop and go it's not there and then he had to make a quick decision to run picked up a nice block by Trey Watson and they just see the strength I mean he's just a difficult guy to bring down when he gets going north and south [Applause] Watson but he got stood up by Curtis Bolton what a nice tackle by bolt I mean he met this is this is absolute picture-perfect tackling beat the guy in the whole face up partner Chris Spielman I love that play right there that is vintage linebacker tackling beat him up I wrap him up take him to the ground here's how [Applause] gain the yardage for the first down got some extra to the 40 now watch the block by back 47 and Watson 5 designed quarterback sweep all the way and Ehlinger again just shows his power took a late shot at the end of that play by train or wood and out of the game Kenneth burry their leading tackler struggled didn't get sean whyte takes his place number 23 a true freshman back his motto Andrew Peck he delivers a little bit of a blow in the Parnell monthly at the end of the play to the oklahoma 42 pickup of 20 watch back he's going to show like he's blocking on a wide receiver screen and then he just takes off into that pointed area nice designed play by Tim Beckett Tom Herman and Andrew Beckwith the big catch and Tim Beck the coordinator no relation said and Rebecca is a huge reason why their offense is so much better this year they really didn't have a tight end a year ago they use and Rebecca we've seen him on the end of the line we've seen him flexed out like he was Planet eights back here [Applause] as he renewed his acquaintance with Trey Watson look at this collision did the whole again reads it quickly bolt linebackers coming on the inside pressure and nobody there to block bolt you think Texas would be wise here Todd to run twelve more seconds they know how quickly Oklahoma can score this is just second down [Applause] want a spin with his little time left [Music] a push-off Colin Johnson it's a touchdown at least for a moment Sooners irate that there wasn't a flag for a push-off and perhaps there was there is one down to the endzone there's also one back near the line of scrimmage on the far sideline not sure Texas was lined up correctly on the outside in their formation you see what both penalties were but again using that size advantage with Colin Johnson and you going to take your chances with that [Applause] there was a flag throw to the line of scrimmage right at the snap and as you said might be Texas was not lined up correctly something along the line of scrimmage certainly then the flag in the endzone you wonder if they did get Johnson for the push off there are 2000 on the play both by the offense is the climb pass interference we'll be in 415 yards [Applause] well the illegal shift I just don't think they got set up out here correctly when they snap the ball and then here's the one that you're going to see Colin Johnson they're drawing up giving a chance and he gets to push off at the [Applause] you have to be set for one second I kind of thought they might have been set for that one second but that's what drew the flag second and 25 [Applause] the gun by Gallimore throws and complete Brennan Eagles the intended receiver and he's only caught one ball all year true freshmen who had his only catch back in week 2 against Tulsa you talk about again critical stops look at the enthusiasm of the Oklahoma bench their defense right now with an opportunity right before halftime they're off as he's going to get the ball to start the third quarter they have a chance to turn this game right question the play call there by Texas blowing the ball up Alma's no time second at 25 [Applause] we might wanna run a plate of it keep the clock running it's a screen it's a good screen it's kiawe angry backwards to the 41-yard line well short of first down by about 11 yards they can let that clock run now show it as far down as they can use one of their timeouts and then try to punt the ball deep I would think I don't think you want to go for it here and give Oklahoma any kind of a short field their offense started to come alive here of late so run that clock down as far as you can try to get a good punt inside the 5-yard line and make Tyler Murray go on a long field with no timeouts late Tom Herman is gonna use the timeout if you know you're going to putt you could also just take the delay penalty maybe give the putter a little more world [Applause] Oh tis a timeout Texas Tom Herman has the only timeout left for either side approaching halftime years today's unexpected outcome brought to you by ExxonMobil the Oklahoma offense less than half its usual first half scoring total and the yardage a little more than half get total and way below the typical rushing firsthand and I think that's that's the difference in the ball game right now is what Texas has been able to do to defend Oklahoma's run which has been virtually unstoppable the last seven weeks of the season the Texas lined up as if it's going to putt Oklahoma doesn't have anybody back inside the 20-yard line Billy perhaps of a fake but it's a long way to go forth and 11 who Jeff ski the putter shifting didn't seem to confuse Oklahoma even if you get them to draw offsides it's not going to change the situation its fourth and 11 it would be fourth and six if they jumped offsides that which you try to do there maybe draw them offsides with a hard stare that's a five-yard penalty it's fourth down well to me Texas wasted a timeout now with a minute six to go you know you're gonna punt on fourth down it seems Tom Herman did just take the five yards originally punt it away leave yourself two timeouts if you'd back Oklahoma back up there something happens you may want to be able to stop attack enough to get the ball back interesting Oh [Applause] he's had a rough first half here's Holly well guys this offensive line for Oklahoma has been under duress today in fact over in their sidelines in between series their offensive line coach Bill beaten beau who is terrific has been after them he's saying he's got to be tougher you've got to finish blocks they have not been themselves even Lincoln Riley the head coach came over and bruises really getting in the face of this offensive line asking for more they have been very atypical for what they are normally doing here in the first half credit that defense in front of Texas but this old line has to come alive and no timeouts for Oklahoma they've had trouble getting the boss snap that could be a factor here in the final minute but they can score the plugin and I perhaps Murray on target to Nick bass Quinn just his fifth catch of the year Murray's vision is outstanding his ability to stay alive at the pocket and kind of scan what's happening at the back end of the defense nearly remarkable Texas not lined up uses its last timeout Texas calls their third and final timeout every 30 seconds [Applause] a key player shaken-up cadence turns the true freshman safety the newcomer of the year on defense of the big 12 this year week 13 Monday Night Football a big one of the NFC's will be watching with great interest in this part of the country for sure the Cowboys have won four in a row trying to take control of that division wash it into the Eagles right there they're chasing the Cowboys and they go head to head the Redskins in the Eagles 8:15 Eastern on ESPN espn2 port ace and available on the ESPN app you can watch anywhere Sterns like he's heading to the dressing room Chris Brown is in for the sophomore number 15 who plays along [Applause] fifty-one seconds to half time no timeouts on either side first in ten Oklahoma minutes on 44 suitors have not led in the game that's good again stepping his way [Applause] by pj1 but it's another first down Texas was so concerned about covering deep that they didn't have enough defenders over there on that quit throw had two blockers in front and a big game with that Pass Aspen at four catches all season long now he's had two back-to-back [Applause] they're at the 36 dump Texas in life you [Applause] [Music] no pass rush good job by that offensive line in this possession giving Tyler Murray time to just see what he wants to see what a kids but I don't know if he got that foot down they ran the play Jannetty Brooks Terri's Holman got away with one there he got his foot down I think he won out it was just a question of which one came down first any well after the Brooks run there's a flag tremendous effort but the left foot down the left foot down ahead of the right all you need is one to be the first one yeah left toes down good call by the officials what a catch good work by the replay booth to let them continue on fischels now conferring sprechen Haggar [Applause] after the play who some foul personal foul face mask by the defense [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Haggar an emotional player tada Linda's that he's a little out there he's hoping they win today for a lot of reasons booty wants to cut that long hair he said I won't cut until we win a big 12 title and it's been growing for several years without now Katara right here is the biggest receiver out there inching toward the line they bring pressure up the middle it was in the back of the endzone near where he made the catch I think in this whole game or pass interference on Brandon Jones who is in coverage on Cal Katara keepers this is a beautiful route by cow Katara he's going to set up Brandon Jones watch cow Katara move a little bit outside pause and then cut back in and that's what drew the holding but still a beautiful throat by cowlick contrary to the back of the end zone Lahoma takes the lead for the first time today [Applause] they're so explosive the extra point by Seibert as given the Sooners a six-point lead even though there was some free rushers coming he knew he had Kalka tear in the back of the endzone and threw it to his biggest target out there for the touchdown grant Cal coterra sophomore from Rancho Santa Margarita California first year starter last year played behind the terrific Macky Award winners the best tight into the country Mark Andrews who's now having an excellent rookie year for John Harbaugh on the Baltimore Ravens well and another costly facemask penalty on Texas and that drive that now eight penalties for 78 yards against Texas in the first half as good as they played in so many ways that has hurt him in this ball game and you go back to the play calling not to belabor the point but was second and 25 are in their own territory Oklahoma out of timeouts they threw a pass was incomplete Tom Herman said you get out score but that stopped the clock with his 18 seconds to score the go-ahead touchdown and absolutely a question that I just think Oklahoma finally got a little swagger back to their offense they had really been stymied have not been able to run the football but Kyler Murray kind of came alive there took advantage of getting the ball back and now they'll get the ball to start the third quarter with a lot of confidence a lot of momentum - how about words that haven't been said a lot this year how about this Oklahoma defense critical stop says that's a term I learned in the last three weeks covering big 12 critical stops in critical situations [Applause] without a timeout tre Watson straight ahead Texas got the opening kickoff marched out and scored led throughout almost the entire first half but it's Oklahoma that takes the lead in the locker room and will receive the second half kickoff stay tuned

rejoined in a moment by Holly Rowe we talked about it was a struggling start for this Oklahoma office but you look at the numbers you know there are over 250 yards for the half on their way to 500 perhaps again as they've been in every conference game this year Texas did such a great job for most of that first half particularly stopping the run and finally Lincoln Riley said you know what we got to throw the football they're doing a great job on a run let's put the ball in the hands of Kyle or Marion and that really started to loosen things up in that late part of the first half across the field they'll mark him out of bounds for the first out at the 40-yard line they love that play it's kind of a wide receiver screen under the guise of a crossing route as long as that receiver gets back behind the line of scrimmage guys can block downfield they ran it earlier with Marquis Brown the first half that time to deal with CD lamb J sermon it's two a moment ago Holley spot live Lincoln Riley coach Riley that is the first time in 25 games you haven't scored in the first quarter what kind of changed in the second that you started to get more of a rhythm offensively we just made some competitive plays we have plenty opportunities we moved it good the first half we just didn't do a good job we did that there in the second quarter how does scoring go into the locker room at the half really give you guys some juice I saw offensive lineman leaping in the air a lot of momentum you know I'd be able to flip that there get a stop come down score get the ball here start second half is huge j7 got them to the 45 yard line here's third opening possession of the second half Marie sidesteps the rush over the middle and on target first down to the Texas 42 yard line miles teves Murray

debris onto the field from the stands that's dangerous beer can flying out of the lower seats in that zone where the flag was thrown [Applause] Gary Johnson is a safety they're looking for the matchups in man coverage with a safety and a wide receiver both tee's gets away with a little tug but Brandon Jones does not I don't know we've seen a couple games last couple weeks where they've let a lot of that stuff go the big 12 days to figure out how he wants to call pass in affairs with field of night this week saw weeks ago where they've basically got the mug each other without flags trace sermon down to the 20-yard line but the result is Texas now nine penalties for 93 yards that's a huge swing for in this game only two called against Oklahoma for 15 yards mari Keisha first down inside

think it's so great I didn't know there was such times they ever heard of such a Center coach I've never heard of such a thing either their quarterback coaches did not know they were Friday Center coaches I don't know if there that's a big business that might be lucrative his he's going to play in the NFL they could Riley told us he's the best offensive lineman that he's ever been around Seibert another majestic kick and it gives us time to take a look at our Pacific Life game summary good start for Texas in particular for Sam Bellinger he said I thought worried about my right shoulder I'm gonna run and he did he did [Applause] Texas really had Oklahoma's defense on their heels in the first war [Applause] Marie started to get warmed up get those knives down the field Texas

plays in this game so far today the reason their 100th in the country in scoring defense 111 [Applause] Colin Johnson running out to the catch out to the 44 yard line this is a beautiful route in a throw by say Bell here at the top of the screen Colin Johnson attacks outside leveraged by motley the corner a nice throw on time they got to get little George Humphrey back involved in the game though Deonte Ingram toward midfield a couple of yards short Kenneth Murray Neville gallop or combining on the stop for Oklahoma up free only had three catches for 22 yards of the and he was a at a monster game against the Sooners in October they've got give him a tract here in this Longhorn offense targeted him four times yet nine catches in the regular season went over Deonte across midfield to the sooners 45 yard line Humphrey did a nice job blocking on that play that was a design screen he had two wide receivers out there blocking he did a nice job on a linebacker Caleb Kelly just bring that play for a first down Texas really needs a touchdown of this bride now this lead to get too far extended with alcohol Gallagher said of the south College Johnson who delivers a shove to the face

rare three and out for the Oklahoma offense first game this year returning punts wanted the ball to be gone not bounce for additional yardage he's done that way 47-yard punt Texas on offense after

three and out we treated in a truck just wanting to get rid of it and incomplete pass for Andrew Becker pressure by Ronnie Perkins one thing that we should bring up is the beating in one of the real turning points Oklahoma had three turnovers and Texas had done it was a big difference in the game no turnovers so far in this football game could be very critical down the stretch Watson Rong's Burnie and Curtis Bolton stopped him just shy of the first down a lot of options at third and short particularly at quarterback [Music] Mellinger took a hit on his right shoulder while throwing the touchdown pass on the last drive was moving it around a little bit didn't look to be in significant pain definitely swung it around a couple of times well after he threw the ball defensive lineman little George right now there's a crease there's a first down across midfield is sliding down yard line of Oklahoma and this is Sammy Hagar can do is to slide his normal doesn't love to slide but he's doing the smart thing right there tre Watson bounces off couple hats gets tackled forward to the 44-yard line this guy does so many different things for that number 47 pissed off last year with an injury we had a broken foot the actually broken twice one chair falls out but it's out of bounds J Watson had it popped out by Robert Barnes but that ball went backwards and they lost a couple yards so B third and longer now for Texas good hit by Barnes helmet right on the football [Music] [Applause] unlike when they play in the Cotton Bowl see a lot of in Oklahoma fans next to the Texas fans usually the other 50 in the other direction but here their internet [Applause] watching a very entertaining game whistles before the snap timeout Oklahoma Texas was lined up far same way as the last touchdown first timeout of the half and little Jordyn Humphrey and Colin Johnson on the same side his short side of the field Ruffin McNeil want to take another look at Oh [Music] [Applause] [Music] Vincent earlier Tim back the offense courtier says sam millinger believes he was born to be the Texas quarterback he's been a Texas fan since the earliest days he can remember trying to lead them to a big 12 title down by six third and seven from the Oklahoma forty six he's on target little Jordyn Humphrey inside the 30-yard line to the Oklahoma 28 working on trade Norwood the corner who's playing inside is a safety nice official by Humphrey and a good first Taylor Neville Gallimore down they missed him in the Oklahoma State game came back last week against West Virginia probably their best interior defensive lineman well they check on Neville let's send you back to Matt berry in studio Sean thank you time for your directv more for your college football thanks up about championship over on ESPN this Appalachian state's after Thomas 35 yard touchdown run his second of the day 27:16 appstate to the fourth quarter very good appstate team no very good almost knocked off your beloved alma mater at Penn State at the beginning of this year that nothing fluky about that game either because we at Penn State Pitt the second week of the season I was able to watch that film and appstate plate of those four notes really a good ballgame or limps off I'm not Sam Bellinger that's weak with the baby hook of horns that's how he announces his commitment to go be the quarterback for Texas raised that a Texas household is dad Ross graduate University of Texas and a huge long horn fan passed away tragically 2013 while participating in a triathlon around Alcatraz out of San Francisco Sam the oldest of his three children brother Jake and sister Morgan football player cheerleader respectively in high school [Applause] the kid smart polite and obviously tough and talented and very good back up in chain who shall they battle for the job he has the it factor talking about L occur he's throwing to the exotic they might have been holding no Jordan Humphrey intercepted pass interference against Oklahoma will be the call [Applause] defense number Shawn they got the penalty but I want you to watch this Duvernay is going to run in the middle of the field wide open he's looking to little Jordan Humphrey out here he gets the penalty but if he sees Duvernay in the middle it's a touchdown for Texas get the penalty and they're in scoring position but he would have had a touchdown in one play but clearly a penalty on train or wouldn't have gone now two plays in a row too little Georgia penalty against Oklahoma Texas has been penalized nine times Texas throughout almost the entire first half trying to reclaim the lead with a touchdown as we approach five minutes to go with the third quarter and move the Texas offensive line just so long to be in your stance up therefore you're an offensive lineman Texas trying to do a lot at the line of scrimmage whole start offense number 52 it's a five-yard penalty Sam caused me the right tackle again they're really high on him you know you're asking these guys to stay up they're ready to strike for such a long period of time and he moved as did Andrew back and five yards against him [Applause] Devon Duvernay lunging for the first down marker didn't get to it but they're going to give up the five-yard line Oh George Humphrey also using that big body not just as a receiver but as a lead blocker [Applause] Tiant day Ingram the true freshman their leading rusher for the year for Jenks 61 yards again I think that's smart with Neville gala for on the sidelines they're just interior run defender Bholu has played so well today in the last couple weeks down at the end of that play be a huge loss if he has to go out he's their second leading tackler 17th in the nation making 10 tackles a game the other thing about him as they moved him around and play him in so many different spots in their different defensive packages he has a lot of versatility for this defense Dalmore looks like he's ready to go wonder if it's print still tending to Curtis Bolton third leading tacklers you saw on the graphic in the conference Joe Janine of cants player who should be saluted wasn't a great year for the Jayhawks now have less miles of their coach next year but he's a terrific football yeah absolutely led the big 12 and tackles in Kenneth Murray Bolton's teammate number two in the big 12 attackers very try to stay loose well this game the first time was a shootout the highest-scoring Red River Rivalry game and kind of went down to the last possession who has the ball last and that's what this one is shaping up as I mean it's going to be a game all the way to the end of the fourth quarter and Texas tried to regain the lead here now with first to go on the two let's check in with Holly well guys obviously give you an update on Curtis Bolton who's up walking off the field right now but a huge injury for Texas right before the half we thought their fantastic freshman safety Katie Stearns Lindt to the locker room he is now ruled out for this ball game looked to me like it was a right knee injury he will not return and that is huge for this long-horned defense he was the big 12 defensive newcomer of the year one of the best players in the league who knows just a freshman now they just got their other safety brain to Joe look like a crap Gold Texas Daniel Jung in now with Ehlinger shucks anybody they moved that there was movement again Elijah Rodriguez the right guard you got to hold your water I mean you're killing yourself with these kind of motion penalties first and go on the two you're going to run the football now you back it up offense number 72 it's a lack of concentration by Elijah Rodriguez you have this Oklahoma defense kind of right where you want them you've got a quarterback who's a great runner inside the 5-yard line and now you you put yourself a little bit farther away from that goal line outside of the six the play had some Running Room but he stumbled as he got away from the traffic they'll Park it on the five-yard line second and goal and under four minutes to go in the third quarter of this dr. pepper while championship game [Music] again you've got big receivers if you want to throw on second down [Applause] Humphry and Colin Johnson both to the top of the screen [Applause] this is the formation that they have run with we're back to the right in previous games against Oklahoma they did the first now Gallagher dr. short king body blitz all says we're going for that again really nice play by Bledsoe worked his way down the line was not fooled took over for Mike Stoops huge third down play but first a goal inside the tomb before this and the owner of its four-down territory [Applause] garnet said you'd really can't kick field goals against Oklahoma so does showing blitz they rush fine [Applause] that submits mismatch protects it will turn three their best receiver against a linebacker Caleb Kelly good read by Sanibel here watch this right here one-on-one against the linebacker it's the separation puts the ball in the numbers in Texas with a chance to take the lead [Applause] [Music] and it's the true freshman out of Austin Lake Travis high school Cameron dicker one of the heroes of the regular season win against Oklahoma get the game-winning field goal look like it was deflected and now it's Robert bars but the place dead and it's a crunch bar we hit the crossbar the extra period is no good and it's the first one missed by ticker this year [Applause] a little bit low [Applause] by dicker I'm a d-plus so let's so yep he's the one who got it thank God enough of it that it did not creep over dicker have been 49 for 49 and P eighties in this his freshman season that is an enormous play and it's a tie game with 244 to go in the third [Applause] [Music] the third block kick for Oklahoma this season Vickers kickoff will be a touchback here's a look at our Pacific Life game summary the quarterback comparison Marie with a slow start for for nine really came on strong after that Sam eligor is kinda doing what he did the last time kind of playing play for play matching big play for big play with Kyler Marie as a runner in a passer and a tie ballgame which makes it a lot of fun here late in the third for just 306 yards passing 71 rushing per game he's septic to mark he's proud a little bit too far in trying to Hollywood don't see Cuyler Marie Bissman and Rose like that he didn't have any pressure just a little bit thrown over thrown to the outside Marquis Brown working on to safety they really worked that matchup against Brandon Jones Tyler's parents Kevin and Missy Kevin a fine quarterback at Texas A&M now tutors young quarterbacks Tyler tells my dad taught me how to play other things he taught us how to be patient in the pocket time and patience bear wisely along the sideline the first down near the 40-yard line this place shows you how dangerous he is now you're gonna see Geoffrey McCulloch number 23 in position to tackle as soon as he takes one two quick feet of cutlery gets to the outside turns it into a positive play as the ability to make you miss with quickness and then run by with great speed only player the history of FBS football go through regular-season average 300 yards per game passing and 60 yards or more per game in Russia Timothy Brooks to the 49 and in many years time he's a shoo-in if styling said to win the heisman trophy but not of this year when - at Lola's but historically great Dwayne Haskins is already said the big 10 feet two touchdown passes breaking a mark held by Drew Brees and they all three are playing in huge games tonight on a national stage I just think it's it's awesome for that reason for the Heisman race for the third quarter tied at 27 huge missed extra point by Texas a moment ago Marquis Brown got just enough for the first down to the Texas 49 [Music] dicker kicked em 40-yard game-winning field goal against Oakland with nine seconds left and a great freshman year that was a big mess on the block bloodstone barring scrambles for about eight more they it scored three touchdowns on three consecutive possessions before the freedom you hate to give up a gain of seven or eight but you'll take that myth palaver because like Tata Lando said to us he can run sixty yards just as fast as he can throw a pass sixty yards but so if you if you hold him to eight yards or seven yards that's kind of a win sure that's literally true that it has to be closed it almost like to see you outrace of all the way throws at marquise print from behind inside the 30-yard line nice job by Lee Morris the other receiver out there with the block on Chris Boyd Oklahoma kind of but spotted Lee going down the field here with short passes and runs out to the catch limping slightly as he went to the sideline have to snap the ball to get here in the third quarter and it appears that the suitors will not [Applause] one of the great rivalries in

conference championship game [Applause] first and ten kind of hurry time the throat just a little bit too long for Carson Meyer here's Holly Oklahoma without Marquis Brown who may have been one of the people out on the route right there they have been examining the top of his left foot really putting their thumb in some of those fragile bones along the top of that foot they have decided to put his shoe back on they've taped over the top of his shoe and he's trying to test out that left foot right now on the sidelines [Applause] was bothered by an ankle and for earlier in the season came back couple weeks 100% healthy grimacing as we had the shot of a moment ago cd1 capable big playmaker Devante Davis here's third down the field goal range to take the lead at Marquis Brown showing those get the gate soon he's such a start and stop making this kind of guy that kind of [Music] that could be really debilitating with his skillset injured his ankle against TCU October 20th next three games average just 46 yards per game receiving but the last threes averaged 150 yards receiving per game they need to reset the 25 second clock now are they going to charge a timeout to Oklahoma here's what I don't understand the 25 second clock was going down cause their first timeout thirty seconds geneticist second time bill here's a question I have for you so in that particular case Texas was making a late substitution because they were allowed to obviously Oklahoma substituted somebody so the referees were standing over the ball it was a very late substitution at the play clock went all the way down to two by rule the offense is responsible for that play clock if they substitute they can be in jeopardy of a delay of game however you and I talked earlier in the season we're starting to see more they didn't really hustle now they to get on and off the field for the deep you're seeing defenses is a strategy to draw that thing well that strategy draws a timeout here at the beginning of the fourth quarter remember they used all three of their timeouts in the first quarter Marquis Brown now distraught here's the reality as he will not be coming back into this game what a shame indeed the best receivers in the country [Applause] looking like he'll watch the rest of this conference title game third five play clock down the one again they Blixen didn't get close and it's a first down it's trust and ran ball who's in because Brown is not just his fifth catch of the season for the redshirt freshman out of Cedar Hill Texas of a double crossing around inside Rambo did a nice job of getting separation from Chris Boyd and burry found him with the football [Applause] terms a time of very [Applause] Oklahoma standard more than 4 minutes now working their way up the field nothing doing Brookes chopped down by Chris Nelson veteran to the middle of that defensive line is 20 career start for a senior from Lakeland Florida Chris Nelson did a nice job of beating the freshman center Creed Humphrey on that play stout guy in the middle that Texas defense person a centre coach will help trade work in the days ahead that one filled up let's again danced ahead to the 15 perhaps into the 14 yard line Nelson another play again with Anthony wheeler player Malcolm Roach jr. fractured his foot early in the year they thought he'd be out the entire season but he worked very hard rehab his way back in check on Malcolm after a time up [Music] with dr. pepper big 12 championship trophy to be presented to the winner of this game you're watching the dr. pepper big 12 championship on ABC and by Jared it's dr. pepper championship week it's off to a great start here in Arlington Texas well Oklahoma and Texas tied at 27 early in the fourth quarter in the sorters [Applause] if they're bringing that baby for Marquis Brown the guy that Texas needs to step up here and what could be one of the biggest third down plays of the ballgame Charles Amana who the defensive lineman of the conference so far today against is outstanding offensive line blitz from Texas and Marie's packs behind see deal and the de montagne Davis in single coverage fourth down to the field goal team comes on for Oklahoma crystal said number 97 did a nice job he wasn't going to get to the quarterback but he jumped and raised his hand and that little bit got in the vision of Cuyler Murray and the pass was thrown behind his intended receiver [Applause] great kickers in the country [Applause] 31 [Applause] we've seen one hit the crossbar and we've seeds up and hit the upright [Applause] cyber knocks it through [Music] away for sure [Music] the inside of the left [Music] dated back yet [Music] Austan Seibert gives Oklahoma the three point lead 1237 to go he's moved past a Burns Daniel Carlson as they take Marquis Brown to the locker room his move past Daniel Carlson has Seibert for second in the history of FPS in scoring among kickers all these a Gonzalez of Arizona State graduated the 2016 has more career points for 94 he's done I think this is one of the best things this guy does that the percentage that he kicks it out of the end zone is outstanding there's Beth berry back in the studio - Sean keeping an eye the Conference USA championship game great story developing UAB just their second year back to competition at spending the football program back in 2014 there are 24 13 of their championship game just before the half that is an amazing story bill Clark has done the coach there Texas has struggled in fourth quarters this year they've been outscored by 67 points court some of that isn't the beating of the Cotton Bowl from 21 down to tie in to the fourth quarter with three late touchdown [Music] late flag right in the middle of the field I think it might be an illegal man downfield for Texas the center Kyle Shackleford looked like he had worked his way too far down the field see what they call there is no foul for an eligible down field on the pass the quarterback is legally grounding the ball it's second down okay [Applause] on second and 10 Ehlinger design role LJ Humphrey here's Holly Curtis both respected leading tackler for this sooner defense is back out on the defense right now which is chewable gummies of Gatorade into his man speak for the Sooners he's back in devil gal boys back on this third and 10 for the Sooner defense can they get another critical stop at this juncture in the football game [Applause] their first three bellanger long for Johnson the place is a good tangled Cardale motley it's it's not a high percentage throw but when you have receivers this big and physical it is a percentage play defense number 11 varnel motley has no he doesn't make any play on the football he has no idea where the ball is and as Johnson is trying to make a play on the football he's impeded by motley and that's a clear pass interference penalty on third and ten [Applause] Johnson by the way is set the big 12 title game record for receiving yards - it Johnson knocked on a bounce by motley prior to that catchy at 169 yards receiving he's up to 177 in the game the previous mark big 12 title game 142 receiving yards by Malcolm Kelly for Oklahoma back in 2006 [Applause] ahead for a first down in the profit field to the 48 yard line I think the other thing if your top Herman if your tip back here - you're moving the football well you've got the same amount of yardage as Oklahoma has but you want to put a little more pressure on Kyler Murray in that Oklahoma offense by the number of chances they'll have left in the game [Applause] about to get hit as he throws this time good pressure by Kenneth man on Sam Ehlinger he got a good hit on Sam bootlegger - as he released the football [Applause] whose bogus a Mellinger last night Tom Herman they said the mantra all year long was finished last year Texas lost four games that they had the lead in the fourth quarter this year they in one possession games they want six of them [Applause] tre Watson throughout the offseason was about fifty minutes to go even it was just a weightlifting session for the team they've stopped they bring everybody together fingers as if okay you're heading to the fourth quarter of this workout let's finish and that opportunity here that was a beautiful play on second down by Neville Gallimore to stop that run at four no game and third down and long again to convert it on third and ten with the penalty a moment ago two big receivers down to the bottom together pressure its Ehlinger thrive [Applause] [Music] train award [Applause] Jordan Humphrey there is no call fries in the slot working on door he got his jersey boy I don't know what is pass interference of what is not because that looked like a lot of bullying and grabbing of it and fighting through the receiver on a third down play cleanse in pass interference rapping Humphrey up at the ball still on the way [Applause] [Music] that's gonna be a penalty picking their cats tickle made by CD Landon Josh Thompson hit him well Josh Thompson thought he was going to catch the football he thought CD lamb was going to leave the ball alone but CD lamb went to make the fair catch and because Thompson ran into him that's a penalty it's been an up-and-down day for this officiating crew that pass interference a moment ago you cannot miss they've called that all day long yeah especially based on the way they've called the game absolutely again we've had a couple games in this conference in the last few weeks that they didn't call anything like that I think that could have been a pass interference billing just about every instance even what games are they let employ catch interference by the kicking team number nine fifteen yard [Music] [Applause] talk more about itwe come back ten and a half to go in the big 12 championship game [Music] the 2018 dr. pepper big 12 Football Championship presented by Jared on ABC is

cats Brett Kalka Tara first down 33 yard line Tyler Murray on target found the arm strength this from the left hash throwing a deep out to the right sideline I can make every throw that you'd want a quarterback to bait very impressive the kid BS is one more football game left he hopes he has two more left in the college football playoff that was reiterated earlier this week his intention to go the first round pick of the Oakland A's football season is over Kennedy Brooks yanked back after he crossed the 35 Anthony wheelers the tackle when teams have done a great job of taking care of the foot Texas had to watch football by Trey Watson but either team with a turnover targets a deal and Devante Davison looked a little wiped out as he tried to make the tackle see [Applause] Texas has recovered Brandon Jones Carrie Johnson came flying down the field the senior from Dobis Alabama separated Lam from the ball and the Longhorns have it at the 8 yard line what started as a poor play by Devante Davis that turned a short throw away [Applause] it appears at taxes with the first turn of the he's gonna get the football was his knee down before the ball came out that's the only question [Applause] hustle play by Gary Johnson chasing from behind see had turned that catch into a spectacular play but the hustle play by Gary Johnson gets the first turnover the game for the Longhorns she said turn over free on both sides prior to that one 9:06 to go Texas from its [Music] elevating man way to go to this one but questions about the Oklahoma defense some wondering is it worthy of even being included in the fourteen playoff they're making a significant statement absolutely that this is a much different looking defense than the one we watched last week in Morgantown a lot of negative yardage plays they've been more stout against the run that's a heck of a play on first down [Applause] they call this a cat blitz a quarter blitz from the short side of the field his receivers to the left he is not anticipating blitz at all it's going to come right from here and say it never sees it but he feels it when it's too late [Music] [Applause] see deal am a fumble and look like he might run for a touchdown it was the first turnover of the game but the defense for Oklahoma bails him out corner blitz from Trey Brown and relieved the defense got him off the hook free kick from the 20 put on a tee with Cameron ticker it's a good food [Applause] when it gets one down at the 35-yard line bye BJ foster 26 yard return Brown a sophomore from Tulsa [Music] good field position in a 5.4 Oklahoma [Applause] Marie is thrown for three thirty and two touchdowns these rushed for 38 little off this bar yeah first off his mark the past yards are slightly above average for him the rushing numbers down here's chase sermon starting to see some tired looking Texas defenders Brandon Jones got him down just opened up a massive hole that time for tray serving sermons not a guy that's going to make you miss very much he's a pretty physical runner a green grass in front of clearly healthier than he's been he's had more carries today for Oklahoma 13 than anybody else after just six carries total the previous two games again he leaves for a first down I'd only like to go fast top but if you're Oklahoma a little bit slower the operation midway through the fourth quarter absolutely I think you can see that I think you can see that right now Lincoln Riley saying let's listen achill we still want to score we want to make this a to score game but let's take as much time as we can to make that happen [Applause] sermon again up the middle Charles of Menna who the tackle at the 49 yard line three yards for Oklahoma the clock goes under seven minutes remaining in this dr. pepper big 12 championship game [Music] [Applause] at play clock go down under ten seconds each time very smart clock management typically smarter they get one more score pill goal and they get eight Texas would have to get a touchdown and the two-point conversion obviously a touchdown makes it a two score game in Texas would be in a heap of trouble after the carry by chase urban Lincoln Riley sends in the third down and six play you got to be alert [Applause] no mark he's proud anymore CD Lam is primary target up here and Cal Katara not in the game right now [Applause] play clock at five Texas blitzes Mari Jessica open receiver first down Lee Morris the former walk-on high school teammate of Cuyler Murray just down the road in Allen Texas beautiful read he sees blitz he's got single coverage it's out of his hands too quick for any pressure to get to him one-on-one with the free safety BJ Foster who is in there because of the injury to Kate Stearns and Oklahoma moves the chains beautiful read that time by Tyler Murray on third down crutches on the horn sideline 17-yard play third and six trying to get outside [Music] [Applause] [Music] there's also flag we would think offensive holding as well so two flags on the field I think they'll be one penalty against each team [Applause] there are fouls by both teams holding offense number 72 personal foul this collar tackle defense number two will offset replay [Applause] Chris Boyd in the penalty Department [Applause] they called the holding our 72 pen powers and then there's the horse collar at the end by Chris boy [Applause] the clock moving on five minutes to go [Applause] into the stock from which the Blitz can Texas didn't laugh and the Blitzer BJ foster actually wound up being involved in the tackle at the line of scrimmage entre sermon don't think you can play off coverage on these wide receivers I think you got to get up and press up if you're Texas because if it's off and you try to press you're kind of hurry the second downplay but if you play off on their wide receivers he can get they're in a hurry for completions [Applause] leading the play clock down the floor [Applause] down here with four minutes to go Gerald will bond made the tackle that helped from Gary Johnson Marquis Brown [Music] the Oklahoma sideline this is the down I think you have to get up and get a little pressure get some hands on receivers we're down to nine Nexxus brought a blitz a moment ago on third and six it was an easy completion for Oklahoma co-taught Orlando plays this third down at nine three and I have to go [Applause] again it's Lee Morris again they won three state titles together in this building and they might be nearing a conference title today outstanding work by Kyle Murray just feeling the pocket collapsing stepping up and just for the completion two mornings so nifty in the pocket good hit by Vijay Foster and Morris holds on to the football for a huge first down Boris Murray Evans the left tackle all teammates in haste state championship teams tee's Dave and wins and three championship games if you're Texas Todd they think yeah start thinking about timeouts Kennedy Brooks the ball carrier not a timeout yet from Tom urban all three of the Wow pressed with Cuyler furry his work in the you know a guy who can run you'd think he'd take off and run all the time but he's moves in the pocket with the growing the football he runs when he needs to run and he runs when it's a design quarterback run but he stays in there and moves to throw and did it beautifully on that [Applause] hollering for top Herman to use timeout and he does with 204 to go ken Oklahoma convert off another third down we'll find out right after this back at the dr. pepper big 12 championship Oklahoma leading by five and here's today's dr. pepper spotlight now the spotlight is on Tyler Murray who started slowly form for nine but has really picked it up beautiful use of his eyes we've seen this a lot today moving the safety holding the safety wearing woods cups back for the nice touchdown pass to see Neela here's another one to count good Tara I like about this is his ability to just stay alive in the pocket and he has quick feet but he also has quick eyes he sees what he wants to see this was the third down play just a bit ago to Tamara's for a huge conversion Tyler Murray sitting right now at 361 yards in to touch now strong Lee Morris's old high school buddy didn't ever catch all days and catches on to big third going this 1/3 down in 10 two timeouts for Texas Oklahoma by five Murray [Applause] Kalka tell two minutes to go [Applause] they decided to press kotero working on BJ foster and it was a one-handed catch from a beautiful throw by Pilar Marie the touch throw to the outside shoulder the one-handed catch on third and ten that is beautiful go to the play is they touchdown after the plane unsportsmanlike conduct no berating 15-yard bar will be enforced on the ensuing kickoff they spiked the football what a drive a championship drive it seems for Oklahoma they held the ball for six minutes and ten seconds [Applause] something remarkable in the last two

/r/LonghornNation mod here. We save every single one of our games to this YouTube channel, and I usually try to share the replay with our opponent when we come out on the losing end.

See y'all for another pair next year.
