Houston Cougars vs. Oklahoma Sooners | Full Game Highlights | ESPN College Football

wide out tonight as those injuries have piled up just a little bit little toss but nothing doing that's Dion bur the Purdue transfer toss for a loss of six he had a monster game against Temple three touchdowns in the first half complete to the edge and the somersault on the tackle of Bowers sharp former quarterback now tied end a lot of room for Deion Burks at the top of your screen there in slot Sawchuk the running back Allen to the slant and is caught touchdown brenon Thompson and clear the way for the slant this motion is going to pull this Defender out of the way and then it is one-on-one for the backside slant all day the play fake pulls everybody else in that's about as clean as a one-on-one you're going to again play action off his back foot beautiful hands and a catch by Stefan Johnson who somehow got through and punches it up to the 20 yd line it's a pickup of nine rad Sanford in the game at running back and they complete it to the right side for the first down didn't do up front second and medium that's a conversion on the completion of Jonah Wilson and a big way to do that is the Huddle so they're not giving Oklahoma an early look at their formation pressure up the middle complete to the edge and a pick up by maai Muse won't like this as a quarterback maybe you can't change as much but I will tell you from an offensive line perspective it allows you mentally to be more deliberate you know what the play is you go up you see what the Smith will go under Center third and short and they go butle play action everybody's covered Smith fires on the run and it is caught for the first down by manjack oh just a really good job of protection watch all the time that Donovan Smith has right now trying to hit a deep shot far to the left nothing there manjack a great job of reading his quarterback he's escaping to the right I'm gonna follow him that's that mirror drill you practice every time a play breaks down in practice and it paid off there and also no gloves no gloves no gloves on First and long Smith pressured and gets taken down in the back field yeah just a little delayed pressure on the outside you can see great coverage on the back end that's or three plays in a row the Donan Smith has been looking down field but no one [Applause] open well defended they blow up the screen on the right side and Smith gets taken down by Dominic Williams telling his guys hey if you come through Scott free you're not that good of a pass rusher that time Donovan or excuse me Dominick Williams so close to the quarterback to Bow up towards the Red Zone from this defense an Oklahoma eight of Joseph Kim on for the long field goal and he bangs it through for Houston to get on the board stunts up front they swing up for the screen and room up the sideline for Sanford Kevin Barb and Willie Fritz are thinking about this one offense still on the field yeah Tred them off tell you guys Willie Fritz will see right in front of me down here on the sideline he started yelling of course Texas is huge Oklahoma is big high school football Mississippi this one stepped through by Barnes and he's got a big gain more NFL players per capita in the state of Mississippi than any other state then you mixing the dropback of you know third level routes thanks coach you Jackson Arnold goes deep it is caught Brandon Thompson with the longest play of the night for Oklahoma deep post by Dion Burks takes two Defenders down the field that's where Arnold looking initially and Thompson sharp the tight end flip sides and they go right back to where he came from on the completion to Dion Burks Burks wasted no time first game in an Oklahoma uniform Arnold runs into trouble trying to run out of it now and stays up the sideline start something into nothing into something I guess got Barnes with them in the back field pulls it back end zone touchdown Jak Roberts 11 yd touchdown strike from Jackson Arnold to Jake Roberts flip right through the middle of the defense when nobody's watching watch him work his way here and then just take his time this is what you can't do is Rush this take your time stay low and then burst into the open field great play call and a great disguise from tight end Jake Roberts [Music] and he gets blasted in the hole Danny stman hello on the slant that's complete to Dion Burks he's got a first down great pickup here by this Oklahoma offensive line as you see left guard just kind of slided Smith tries to scramble let his blocker do some work and picks up the first down great vision by Donovan Smith to get Dez Malone cleared out of the way thinking nope right in the spot again he's like a magnet Arnold fits it into traffic for an Oklahoma first down to Zion Reagan freshman from Jones County High School Z there entire offensive line goes left little short Sprint to the right from Arnold first under Kevin steal on the defensive side and then Bren venables this is sne and he's got the sideline and he steps out of bounds and the clock stops with 33 seconds left and a half getting a little lead block here he's going to hand it off and now watch this little seal block there on the linebacker allows sne to get to the second level longest play of the night for Houston goes for 16 yards playaction all day oh over the middle complete on the crossing route Stefan Johnson to the 35 and now a 23 yd pick up CLA will stop cogar will hustle to the line 23 seconds left again watch the pocket and a decisive throw there to Stefan Johnson over the middle that's where I would love to call the timeout there then you you maybe have 20 or so seconds seconds left and still that other time out in your pocket now you really got time just for one play to try to runs when the ball is set for play Smith goes to another Crossing route and this one not for much going to use some time inside the 30 is Stefan Johnson timeout taken by the Cougars got to be responsible get everybody else lined up second and three 10 seconds left they go for a wide receiver screen and and to the sideline and out of bounds is Maris shoulders with his first catch to close the half got the distance and he punches it through senior Donovan Smith is their quarterback he's got Stacy Sneed in the back field and he swings it out on the very first play to Jaden York another Texas Tech transfer couple of Red Raiders hooking up times are trying to keep that right shoulder stabilized as they walk Lewis off the field It was friendly fire that got him by Woody Washington just a little too physical in the chest of the receiver second year started that's his second defensive pass interference tonight Donovan Smith wide open and he finds manjack for the score 44 yd strike all right this is going to be a version of cover two this safety right here has got to be deep half you got a middle hole player and a half player right there safety's got his eyes in the back field he should be over the top Corner lets the receiver go and that's a complete coverage bust right there on the back end from Oklahoma Cole and Roman Harper do a great job every week breaking down actual football second and nine beautiful move after the catch and the stter by Dion Burks and an Oklahoma first down Arnold swings it out javante [Applause] Barnes during the b game when their NFL guys opted out here's Arnold after the lead block and he's able to bounce it to the outside and pick up the first step sometimes you got to get the quarterback involved spread teams out add an extra hat now your running back becomes a lead blocker you get a hat on a linebacker and that's former sooner Jamal Morris playing middle linebacker Arnold wanting to go deep unloads into coverage intercepted Cougar's Tak it right back Jeremiah Wilson third quarter from Norman Jackson Arnold with the interception and Houston go back on the attack hand off busted Danny stman then lost him and is picked up and cleaned up working right across the face of induk left tackle induk is 3156 six I can just shrug shrug him off and get to Stacy knee to bounce that outside and let the calvary take over yeah Samuel Migo there to clean up second and long u shows pressure they bring four to the outright to Muse and Muse steps out of bounds after a pickup of four play action a first down whoa and he lost his footing the turf came out from under Donovan Smith on Third and 16 Smith over the middle intercepted taken away by Robert Spears Jennings right here he's going to be reading Donovan Smith's eyes the entire way working his way from the right hash all the way across right on under that tight end route just a great job in zone coverage of following the eyes of the quarterback in this defense gets under Center and sneaks it what a beautiful play and Cole had him sleeping a little bit down there play action little swing out and to turn up field great footwork at the sideline by Stefan Johnson Cougar's run it this time big hit going off tackle of rashan sand for the second Arnold in the second half is just five for nine averaging less than six yards per completion pressured gets rid of it and finds his man Dion Burks that is an Oklahoma first down before Michael baton could bring him down Arnold to the slot there's Dion [Applause] Burks that same exact formation same play I just cired for the defense Arnold in route Nick Anderson has been banged up he didn't play last week out again tonight fourth and one offense still on the field for Oklahoma they going to stay out there eighth penalty tonight has cost the Cougars 7 yards Arnold qby run [Applause] again extra pushing a shoving B maybe maybe came loose Donovan Smith has been efficient tonight they got it out of the end zone no it's a safety Oklahoma's Grayson hton with the stop before they can get it across the line they review all scoring plays so they'll take another look call on this play after further review the ruling on the field stands safy last year Victory formation burned some time oh dangerous okay so they did that to just be extra careful right instead of handing it off in the chance of a fumble a strip or something they said we're going to take a knee we're going to let this click all the tick all the way down and give you seven or eight seconds Josh B just got flagged uh-oh he was all sorts of fired up because of what happened when the quarterback was trying to take a knee Cole you put your you he took his helmet off and that gets the flag punt return and there was only about an eight or n second separation as you see the play here this just you can't have this can't take your helmet off can't let your emotions get the best of you but think about this they took a knee to try to take the clock all the way down to 8 seconds and then punt it Y and and make Houston go the entire field with 8 seconds now there's 35 seconds on the clock at least you have time to get to the line of scrimmage and clock it third down five b found him got him on the sideline it all comes down to this for donovic Smith in [Applause] Houston 14 seconds remaining Smith steps up on the Run lobs it caught first down Koger as a clock will stop on ran Sanford's catch he got to Clock IT 7 seconds remaining the clock will run once the ball is ready for play they're going to try to run a play I don't know why I would clock it get set and get a play you like but they're going to go and so it comes down to this steps up gets out of trouble Zero's on the clock to Midfield and lateral the ball's loose but got pitched forward after the kick and they roll it down at the 41 yd line and Oklahoma escapes with a home win against Houston
