Before this game, Oklahoma's all-time record against Baylor was a sparkling 21-1, with the Sooners' only loss coming two years ago -- when a great performance by Robert Griffin III led the Bears to a 45-38 victory. But all that history did Oklahoma no good in this game, as Baylor's spectacular run continued in smashing fashion. The Bears were a bit nervous in the early going, and actually trailed 5-3 after Oklahoma kicked a field goal with 12:09 to go in the second quarter. But Baylor's offense tends to go very quickly once it gets going. The Bears scored three touchdowns to take a 24-5 lead into the locker room, and then scored again to make the score 31-5 with 8 minutes left in the third quarter.
The Baylor fans, who were all wearing black like their team, were utterly transported. They've waited a long time to see something like this, and they were rightfully ecstatic. Plus, of course, they kept the Unofficial College Football Championship.
So Baylor has now won the UCFC twelve times in a row, and their all-time record is now 26-18-3 in UCFC play. Oklahoma falls to 26-16-1
Next up, Baylor heads to JerryWorld to defend its title against Texas Tech.
