Sterling Shepard ran away from a Baylor defender for one of his two touchdown catches in Oklahoma\u2019s win.<\/p>\n

The Baylor Bears finally played somebody and it wasn’t a good “blackout” night in Waco.\u00a0 The Oklahoma Sooners used an effective pass defense, a train load of Samji Perine, and\u00a0 a quarterback with attitude in defeating Art Briles best 37-27, breaking the Baylor home winning streak and giving them the first defeat in their new stadium on the Brazos River.\u00a0 A highly charged game that leaves the Bears with little chance of getting into the playoffs and pushed the Sooners into contention,\u00a0it was a fiercely fought game.\u00a0 OU broke a two game losing streak with Baylor as Sooner coach Bob Stoops has never lost to the same team three time in a row.<\/h6>\n

Oklahoma State continued to run the table with their come-from-behind win over Iowa State in Ames.\u00a0The 35-31 win was typical for this Cowboy unit as they overcame another 17 point deficient. \u00a0The win puts the Pokes at the top of the Big 12 standings with a perfect 7-0 record.\u00a0 OU, Baylor and TCU all have a single loss in conference play.<\/h6>\n

West Virginia beat Texas and Texas Tech was the better of Kansas State.\u00a0 TCU held serve with a home win, abet close (23-17), over Kansas. Trevone Boykin suffered a high ankle sprain and but will be ready for OU next week in Norman.<\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

In National games, Alabama was just too much for a Mississippi State with Clemson, Ohio State and Notre Dame all winners.\u00a0 Losers included Stanford, Utah and LSU.\u00a0 The Playoff list is becoming shorter as the final weeks of the season are being\u00a0played out.<\/h6>\n
