ARLINGTON, Texas — In the first Oklahoma-Texas meeting this season, Ruffin McNeill was the Sooners' defensive tackles coach, taking in the game next to then-defensive coordinator Mike Stoops.
Saturday in the Big 12 Championship Game, McNeill coordinated the defense that came up big at several turns in the Sooners' 39-27 win.
Q: What did you think of the call that led to Tre Brown's safety sack of Sam Ehlinger?
A: We called that particular blitz at least eight times tonight. It's a blitz where different formations or parts of the field determine who comes and who may not come.
