OU defense flying around

OU’s defense is playing a whale of a game. Flying to the football. Intensely pressuring Chase Daniel. Hitting hard. Very hard. And the Sooners have turned back two Mizzou red-zone threats, holding the Tigers to field goals. Mizzou has moved the ball at times, but two questionable pass interference penalties have aided Missouri as much as anything.

Curtis Lofton is playing great. The OU secondary is playing well, too. It lost Tommy Saunders on a 3rd-and-10 play for a 21-yard gain, but otherwise, no coverage busts. The return of Auston English has energized the defense. English hasn’t gotten to Chase Daniel yet, but just his presence seems to have been a lift.
