How Twitter reacted to Oklahoma’s 27-7 win over Baylor

It wasn’t the high-flying blowout that was expected, but Oklahoma eventually built a sizable lead over Baylor, outlasting the Bears, 23-7.

It wasn’t the high-flying blowout that was expected, but Oklahoma eventually built a sizable lead over Baylor, outlasting the Bears, 27-14. Oklahoma’s defense continues its stellar play, holding the Bears offense to just two touchdowns.

Oklahoma’s outstanding defensive line play has been one of the major storylines in Norman this season. Following a painfully long streak of below-average defensive efforts, Oklahoma seems to have really found a groove under second-year defensive coordinator Alex Grinch.

While the blowout result is not totally unexpected, Oklahoma’s last two meeting with Baylor were quite a bit more competitive. The Sooners managed a 25-point comeback in Waco last season before holding the Bears off in overtime in the Big 12 Championship Game.

While many expected a more lopsided final score, Oklahoma cannot be disappointed in what’s ultimately a dominating defensive performance paired with a slow but ultimately productive day on offense.
