LSU made mincemeat of a Sooner defense that had only allowed 330 yards a game coming into its Playoff showdown with the No. 1-seeded Tigers on Saturday. The result was a 63-28 shellacking and the worst loss by an Oklahoma team in over two decades.
And the demolition of the Sooner defense was just half the story. The Oklahoma offense, headed by quarterback Jalen Hurts and ranked No. 2 this season behind LSU in terms of yards per game, stammered and sputtered to a season-low 322 yards of total offense against a swarming and stifling Tiger defense.
