WACO, Texas -- Oklahoma's pursuing Baylor's running game aggressively, and it's paid off.
The Bears carried the ball six times on their opening drive.
Four went for losses. One was for no gain. The other went 6 yards.
Oklahoma looked bent on flying to the ball and making Baylor's offense one-dimensional.
Baylor, though, tried to answer. Robert Griffin III is looking deep, but his only connection, an 80-yard touchdown to Kendall Wright, was erased by a hold. The Bears ran a double pass from Griffin to Jerod Monk to Terrance Williams, too.
The Bears are trying to soften up the Sooners defense, but Oklahoma's bringing all kinds of blitzes and put a handful of big pops on RG3 on the opening drive.
Baylor will have to hit on a couple of those deep balls before the Sooners back off.
Additionally, we've already had five penalties for 60 yards tonight. An odd start on that front.
