Summary

Unlike their matchup earlier in the year, a shootout between two highly efficient offenses, the Oklahoma Sooners instead jumped out to an early 17 point lead which they never relinquished. Trailing 24-7 to begin the 2nd half, both the Cyclone offense and defense sprung to life, scoring 14 unanswered to bring the score within 3 points. A Gabe Brkic field goal with 2 minutes left extended the Sooner lead to 6, leaving the door open for the Cyclones to win the game with a touchdown drive. Driving into Oklahoma territory, Brock Purdy threw his 3rd interception of the day with under a minute to go, sealing the Sooners sixth consecutive Big 12 Championship.
