Tyrin Smith, WR
UTEP’s offense is by no means the nation’s best, but they have a wide receiver in Tyrin Smith who can make plays. He fits the exact mold of players that have given Oklahoma fits in recent years: short, explosive, and very elusive.
Smith is only 5-foot-7, but he can play.
Last season he had 33 receptions for 570 yards (17.3 avg) with four touchdowns. He had seven catches for 127 yards and a touchdown against North Texas. Stature-wise, it may be wise for Jaden Davis to be the one to cover him, but they’ll move Smith around a bit to find favorable matchups. If the Sooners can bottle him up, they could really limit a Miners passing attack that likes to push the ball down the field.
