FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Brent Venables doesn’t exactly look the part of Oklahoma QB Baker Mayfield, but he’s happy to play the role in practice.
Venables routinely takes snaps and tosses the ball around against Clemson’s defense in practice, giving the team a look at what’s in store in the College Football Playoff Semifinal at the Capital One Orange Bowl. It’s just that he’s hardly a natural at the position, according to linebacker Ben Boulware.
