ARLINGTON – The head coaches met at midfield and exchanged pleasantries just as head coaches do.
No one walked through any warmup lines. No one threw any footballs at anybody’s head. Baker Mayfield didn’t teach Anatomy 101 Oklahoma style.
On the field, Mayfield was his typical self, passing for 119 yards on 12-of-19 throws and two touchdowns in leading the Sooners to a 24-17 halftime lead in the Big 12 Championship Game on Saturday at AT&T Stadium.
That represents a monster triumph for TCU, which weathered a fierce storm in falling behind 17 points in the first quarter.
