The Bonus Good: Caleb Williams Resiliency
The last couple of weeks have been a struggle for the Oklahoma Sooners passing game. Caleb Williams was just 8 of 18 on the day. He was 4 of 10 in the first half but bounced back to go 4 of 8 in the second half with a touchdown and an interception.
50% passing in the second half certainly isn’t great, but it was an improvement from the 40% completion percentage he accrued in the first half. More important than the completion percentage, Williams was able to find Mario Williams in the end zone for a spectacular toe-touch score that put the Sooners in front 21-7 in the third quarter.
While it’s a far cry from the numbers Williams and the passing game put up against Texas Tech, he made a play when it needed to be made.
Caleb Williams might be hitting a freshman wall. Defenses certainly have an idea of how to slow him down. The good news for Sooners fans, like we saw in the Texas game, he’ll never give up on a play or on a game. And that’s an intangible that can’t be schemed against or game planned for.
