3. Gentry Williams, CB
Gentry Williams performed nicely in front of his family and friends. The Tulsa native shifted the momentum back in Oklahoma’s favor when he intercepted Tulsa starting quarterback Roman Fuller early in the first quarter.
Williams had nearly perfect technique, read the ball in the air and made a play. He left briefly for an injury, but came back in and played good coverage the rest of the way.
He also had an excellent tackle for loss, continuing to show his prowess and willingness to be physical in the run game.
Every time Williams is out on the field, he makes big plays and is a big part of Oklahoma’s defense.
Avoiding the little injuries will have a monumental impact on this defense because if he’s out there consistently, this defense takes another step.
