Oklahoma Sooners Football: How to shoot oneself in the foot (and other observations from the Kansas State upset)

The Kansas State Wildcats taught the Oklahoma Sooners an object lesson about football over the weekend: Some plays matter more than others.

In OU’s game against K-State, the balance of those high-impact plays leaned heavily in favor of the Wildcats:

  • OU quarterback Spencer Rattler threw three interceptions in the game;
  • KSU scooped up a fumble by running back Seth McGowan at midfield;
  • The Wildcats blocked an OU punt in Sooner territory.

Those kinds of plays matter a lot at the end of the day – much more than your garden-variety seven-yard completion.
