Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield dazzled in Monday night’s Sugar Bowl against Auburn, helping lead the team to a 35-19 victory.
Mayfield completed 19 of 28 passes for 296 yards (2 TDs, 0 INTS), and was about as efficient as any signal-caller can be in a game.
That’s just the type of QB he’s been all season, though.
Mayfield, thanks to that stellar performance, edged out Russell Wilson as the highest-rated quarterback in NCAA history (via Reddit CFB).
Mayfield plans to return for his senior season in 2017, and that alone makes the Sooners a contender to compete for a title next year.
