A High School Football Field Somewhere
OFFENSE:

QB: Baker Mayfield - 84 - Looked antsy most of the day but with all that pressure, who can blame him?
RB: Samaje Perine - 78 - Another week with little to no help for him up front.
RB: Joe Mixon - 77 - Made some plays continues with somewhat limited touches.
WR: A.D. Miller - 60 - Biggest impact was a P.I. on the first play of the game.
WR: Sterling Shepard - 85 - Played as well as anyone could with ZERO offensive continuity.
WR: Durron Neal - 60 - Didn't notice him all day.
OT: Orlando Brown - 50 - Brown looked lost in pass pro.
OG: Derek Farniok - 40 - He was part of a group that may have earned Paul Boyette an NFL camp invite.
C: Ty Darlington - 40 - I think he may still be hurt but either way Sooners may need to explore other options.
OG: Nila Kasitati - 55 - He had a few decent moments but that's all relative to how bad his surroundings were.
OT: Josiah St. John - 35 - I just don't really have the words...


DEFENSE:

DE: Matt Dimon - 60 - Just a quiet day, nothing good, but the running stats say plenty bad.
DT: Matt Romar - 70 - He had some push up the middle but was best of bad day on the DL.
DE: Charles Tapper - 68 - Far from good but did have a few moments worth noting.
LB: Eric Striker - 55 - Texas abused him like few have done since 2013 Notre Dame.
LB: Dominique Alexander - 65 - Had a few moments but reverted back to taking blows rather than delivering.
LB: Jordan Evans - 60 - Really didn't notice him through the day.
LB: P.L. Lindley - 74 - Made a few nice plays in run game but made no impact against the pass.

CB: Jordan Thomas - 88 - One of few defenders who I thought had a really good day.
S: Steven Parker - 70 - Had a few good open field tackles but was just kind 'there'.

S: Ahmad Thomas - 55 - Missed tackles, late on breaks, etc.
CB: Zack Sanchez - 74 - Your typical Sanchez performance - big ups, big downs.


SPECIAL TEAMS:

K/P: Austin Seibert - 91 - Shanked the punt late but other than that, very good day.
KOR: Alex Ross - 65 - Fumble let Texas' early momentum get a bit out of control.
PR: Sterling Shepard - 72 - Was pretty good, more than anything coverage was very strong.


KEY RESERVES:

S: Hatari Byrd - 60 - Lacked making any impact and cost Sooners a timeout that hurt later.
WR: Michiah Quick - 81 - Nice play on second TD drive, hard not to wonder how punt might have gone differently.
FB: Dimitri Flowers - 86 - Bounced back after a shaky performance last weekend.
OG: Jonathan Alvarez - 50 - Alvarez is just not ready for primetime.
WR: Jarvis Baxter - 74 - Baxter's drop early on aided the Sooners sleepy demeanor in the first half.
WR: Dede Westbrook - 73 - Westbrook's slip on the would-be touchdown early was another tough break.

Avg. Grade: 66.2

100-90: Playoff Contender
89-80: Big 12 Title Contender
79-70: Bowl Game Participant
69-0: Home for Christmas
