Oklahoma Sooners tumble to No. OU fell seven spots to No. What went …. Via his personal Twitter account, Oklahoma Sooners linebacker Caleb Kelly announces end to playing career. Oklahoma Sooners drop their first game of the season on the road to the Baylor Bears, who rushed for yards on the day.

Late in the third quarter with Oklahoma trailing, Spencer Rattler was inserted at quarterback for Caleb Williams. Evans is one of the more exciting running backs in the country this season. He is averaging rushing yards per game and his 7. TCU ranks third nationally in third-down conversions, successfully completing 56 percent of their third-down tries, and the Frogs are tied for first among NCAA FBS teams in red-zone offense.

The Horned Frogs may not be as solid defensively this season as in past years, but they are fully capable of getting stops and making big plays.

TCU greatest vulnerability defensively appears to be stopping the run, which could be a problem against the Sooners. The Horned Frogs do the most damage in the first two quarters of games, outscoring their opponents in the first half. The big question this week is who will be starting at quarterback for the Sooners.

Who would have thought we would be pondering that question six games into a season? If it's Williams', what will coach Lincoln Riley do with Rattler? The OU offense, which has had flashes of brilliance but has been sputtering most of the season under Spencer Rattler, appeared to have more rhythm and offensive spark last Saturday behind true freshman backup Caleb Williams, who brings a running dimension as well as a strong throwing arm to the attack.

In a little over two quarters of action in place of Rattler in the Red River game with Texas, Williams completed 16 of 25 passes for yards and two touchdown and ran for 88 more yards, including a yard touchdown.

Williams completed three of five passes longer than 20 yards on Saturday, including a yard TD bomb to Marvin Mims. Rattler has thrown just 15 such passes all season and completed only five. Kennedy Brooks had a breakout game last week running the ball, rushing for a career-high yards and two touchdowns. Look for more of Brooks against a suspect TCU run defense. Eric Gray will also see playing time.

The Sooners are starting to use the Tennessee transfer more on end-around runs and pass plays out of the backfield. Williams appears to have found a receiving connection with sophomore Marvin Mims. Mims caught both of Williams touchdown passes against Texas. The good news is, whoever starts at QB for the Sooners this weekend will have plenty of receiving weapons. TCU has some excellent receivers, and they have plenty of speed, which will once again put pressure on the OU defensive secondary.

The Sooners will need to do a good job pressuring and disrupting the rhythm of the TCU quarterback. OU is 14th nationally with 3. That means, prior to Saturday's game vs. Texas — and not including some garbage-time play earlier in the season — Williams' last meaningful football came as a junior in That season, he threw for 1, yards and 19 touchdowns, rushing for yards and 18 more scores. The year before his junior season, Williams led Gonzaga College High to a record and its first Washington Catholic Athletic Conference title since the season.

It appeared as if the Stags would win a fifth WCAC title in six seasons before Williams, then a sophomore, scored three of his six touchdowns in the final minutes of the game.

That included a quarterback keeper to cut the score to , then another touchdown pass with 29 seconds remaining to give his team a lead. But his team's ensuing squib kick was returned for a touchdown, giving DeMatha the lead again at with only 15 seconds remaining.

With time left for only one more play, Williams launched what was officially a yard Hail Mary on the final play of the game — from his own 41 — to give his team the victory. So, you could say Williams already has plenty of experience in high-pressure situations. Williams didn't play high school football in , but that doesn't mean he wasn't still competing.
