>> adam: four picks today for the oklahoma defense. the latest from dominique alexander. from norman, oklahoma. it looks like baker mayfield's day is gone. the former quarterback with a 211 yard passing. it's knight into the game. trevor night appearing for the 21st time in his career. over 3,000 yearsards passing didn't play against texas tech last season. return for the game against clemson. the brutal loss by oklahoma to
6:01 pm
he got beat out by mayfield for the preseason. final six minutes plus. ross again. close to the sticks. trevor knight the mvp. alabama got knocked out by auburn in the de facto sec west title game. so a lot of people thought they were dragging a little bit going into the ball game. if they were dragging, they took full advantage with four touchdowns and 348. >> kelly: one of the sharpest, most efficient performances i've seen out of a quarterback. trevor knight was unreal. it elevated the expectations going into 2014 at a level they weren't ready to ascend to. they fell off in 2014. >> adam: knights keeps it first down.
6:02 pm
times last year. texas tech had a hot start to the year and a cold finish. they go 4-8. oklahoma had won ten games or more, end up going 8-5 after they got off to a good start. there was a lot of disappointment in these two programs at the end of last season. you got the feeling they felt they could bounce back. when you talk to the coaching staffs they felt like it could be a bigger year for both. ross stacked up by jenkins. second down coming up. >> kelly: the way that 2014 ended is exactly what ushered in changes on the offensive side with bob stoops. he talked about it. he kind of took credit for the air raid stuff hitting the table with leech hired him here after he took the head job. he said, you know, it permeates college football, but i wasn't
6:03 pm
benefitting from that. and so he goes and finds a guy in riley who is in that lineage and says, you know what, i want to start doing this offensively again. i think right now lincoln riley is trying to find the blend between the physical run game we saw here today and also the air raid concepts that are difficult to defend in the pass game. >> adam: the offense wasn't that good against tennessee. they won the game. they got off to a slow start in that game. they were not good against texas. and bob stoops was quick to point that out. we asked him is lincoln riley doing the things you expected when you brought him in. he said let me say we got wins but we struggle. it was inconsistent. like consistency, is everything. >> kelly: what's inconsistent about it primarily was what was
6:04 pm
happening on the line of scrimmage with three young players. as though players are getting ramped up, i think the offense is fixing to launch. and down the stretch, i think lincoln riley will have a lot of weapons in his hands. >> adam: timeout. we'll step aside as well. with pizza hut's $6.99 any deal, i can get a meat lover's and they can get all the fresh vegetables they want. no more compromise. bring home the flavor with america's no compromise pizza deal. get any two medium pizzas with any quality toppings, any crust, any specialty, just $6.99 each.

6:06 pm
he's got the pretty boy image. he's the youngest head coach in the power five a at 36 years of age. you get the sense of this guy that he's a little bit haened. there'sbeen a great article written about him how he was cut from his jv team by his dad. he's gone through a lot in his life arldlready. did not have a flourishing nfl career like many expececd him to have. ross takes it inside the 10 yardline. his mother passed away 10 years ago. he had to go back into coaching. you get a sense that he wants to more than just the money and the looks and the image. >> kelly: yeah, i think it's a quest to be successful. he was as a college player, obviously. and a lot of other things that you've documented is played out in his life.
6:07 pm
thinkke has the ability t tdo that. there isn't any doubt about it. he coaches with a chip on his shoulder. there isn't any question. >> adam: alex ross, first career touchdown. a season high for oklahoma. rushing touchdowns continues too ild up. >> kelly: what kliff kingsbury is trying to do is get the defense side of the ball to match what he knows he can accomplish on the offensive side of the ball. that's where david gibbs comes in. there's been a lot of defense coordinators coming and going. you vhave to settle on somebody you believe in. >> adam: first coach fortouchdhdn for the redd shirt junior.
6:08 pm
kingsbury's travels starts at a high school in texas where he was a unicorn in high school. makes his way to lubbock texas. gets the shot to go look under southerlanan has johnny monan zal. there is some arrogance there at least based on what people would say about him. based on how talks, the way he carries himself. there's confidence there as well. i think that's whatt is carried ovov intoo the program two out of the last three years. people in lubbock believe they can win again. they've been winning two of the last three years. >> kelly: he's well on his way to doing that. there isn't any question i think that he can get there. it's just that now is the ceo of the program, both sides of the ball have to be married together. mike leech got it done won nine
6:09 pm
games his last three years in lubbock. they weren't playing great defense. today's football you can't out score everybody. you have to play defense. >> adam: shy of the 15 yardline. it's tony brown. chopped down. still the big headline today. was baker mayfield. the former texas tech walk on quarterback trying to keep his emotions in check trying to play strong today. >> kelly: his biggest opponent today was himself. making sure that he was locked and loaded. didn't get overly emotional. like i believed he did in the start. he's ann austin kid. outside of one pretty bad decision with the int he had, he's played really well. and composed is the word i would use for him today. >> adam: starting quarterbacks
6:10 pm
davis webb when split time with mayfield last year as a starter. he's into the game. stockton on the run. closing the book on what baker mayfield did. first six games, solid numbers, but, again, a lot of the reason for this is the fact that the rushing attack was so darn good for oklahoma today. >> kelly: that one interception at the bottom is the only thing there's a hangup on. it was efficient otherwise. he had the run game to go with it t. he doesn't need the astronomical numbers. >> adam: batson, taking it out wide. inside of two to play. >> kelly: i think that's what mayfield will have to do down the rd is realize my defense is playing pretty well. we may be able to run the ball very efficiently also. i need to be a good decision maker and distribute to the people in space thatan make plays. that's his calling card going
6:11 pm
>> adam: webb the junior out of prosper texas. in a game for the fifth time this year. incomplete. frustrating day for mahomes. had six interceptions all season coming in. four interceptions today alone. but this is still a guy that -- you see the flashes of what this guy can do and how effective and explosive he can be at the forefront of the offensive. >> kelly: like we talked about, a lot o o his big playsome off script. which i think kliff kingsbury is still trying to find a way to manage. make sure those plays are coming within the confines of what we're doing. the interceptions today, he madede a couple of badad decisionsnsnt it was also good coverage on probably two, if not maybe three of the interceptions as
6:12 pm
first down. stop the clock at 1:23 to reset the change. everything is looking ahead to november in this conference. bob stoops, when you ask him are you a playoff team right now, that's for you guys to decide. that's for everybody else in the media to talk about. certainly we will. we'll jam it down your throat forrhe next couple of weeks until the rankings come out on november 3rd. when the first rankings come out we set the barometer and then the rest of the month might belong to the big 12. because everybody plays everybody among these four teams. tcu baylor, oklahoma state, oklahoma. you said tcu baylor, oklahoma all going to still water this season. >> kelly: that is going to be entertaining. there isn't any question about it. as far as being a playoff team
6:13 pm
team exists yet. things changes so quickly from week to week. that's the beauty of what we do. we are going to document that. but the college football playoff picture changes literally from one week to the next. >> adam: stockton. first down. texas tech will be back in lubbock next week for halloween saturday when oklahoma stata comes to townment they've. they going to austin to play the texas longhorns on thanksgiving. oklahoma, on the road at kansas next week. then iowa state. they get the bye and that's w wn theyeyet up f f the long push. oklahoma with the sixth win to
