Oklahoma quarterback Caleb Williams got the No. 13 Sooners on the board Saturday against Iowa State by showing off his speed with an incredible, long touchdown run.
The freshman passer — who replaced Spencer Rattler earlier this season — entered the game against the Cyclones with 305 rushing yards with a game-high of 88 yards on the ground against Texas in October. But Williams put up nearly a quarter of his season total in a single play early in the few minutes against Iowa State.
On 2nd-and-9 for Oklahoma’s second offensive play of the game from its own 26-yard line, Williams took the snap and briefly looked to his left before darting to the other side of the line, finding a huge hole in Iowa State’s defense and taking off toward the right sideline.

And thanks to some excellent blocking — along with Williams’ speed, obviously — he made it all the way to the end zone.

Williams’ sixth rushing touchdown of the season tied the game, 7-7, early in the first. And wow, that was a great run by the freshman quarterback.
