If Oklahoma is going to win its fourth consecutive Big 12 championship on Saturday then the defense is going to need to rise to the occasion. In the earlier matchup this year, Texas racked up 48 points and 501 total yards of offense against the Sooners. It was just barely enough to secure a three-point win in the 113th edition of the storied rivalry. If you’re the ever optimists what this means is that OU doesn’t need to make great improvements on the defensive side of the ball, but they do need to make improvements.
