NORMAN — By the time OU’s Sept. 26 loss to Kansas State was finished, the three-play sequence in the second quarter was largely irrelevant.
But a month and a half later, the stretch points to something that, while it isn’t the primary reason for the Sooners’ turnaround during their current four-game winning streak, has certainly played a role.
In the opening minutes of the second quarter, the Wildcats faced a third-and-2 with OU up 14-0 when the Sooners’ defensive line shifted to their left simultaneously and Kansas State left tackle Christian Duffie flinched.
False start. Five yards.
