Recap

Baylor's defense dominated Oklahoma from the start, forcing two turnovers while the Bears' offense methodically controlled the game. After Aaron Jones opened scoring with a 29-yard field goal in the first quarter, Oklahoma briefly responded with a safety when Dominique Alexander sacked Bryce Petty in the end zone, but Baylor quickly seized control with a explosive second quarter that saw Petty score on a 5-yard rush, then a 1-yard plunge, followed by a 24-yard touchdown pass to Antwan Goodley with just 13 seconds left in the half. Oklahoma managed only a field goal in that stretch and couldn't generate consistent offensive rhythm, managing just 237 total yards and turning the ball over twice. Baylor's defense continued suffocating Oklahoma in the second half, allowing only a 10-yard touchdown pass to Roy Finch in the third quarter before the final score settled at 41-12.
