Yahoo - Baker Mayfield 'expected to play' against Oklahoma State (Dr. Saturday)

[Jenni Carlson]

Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield will play against Oklahoma State on Saturday barring a health setback, according to the university. Mayfield has passed all tests and will do some exertion work today and team stuff. If he continues w/ no issues, he's expected to play. — Oklahoma Football (@OU_Football) November 23, 2015 Mayfield passed two concussion tests over the weekend. Mayfield suffered a head injury early in the second quarter when TCU linebacker Ty Summers dove helmet first into the back of Mayfield’s helmet. Summers was ejected for targeting. Mayfield played the rest of the half, but was pulled at halftime after he reported having a headache. Mayfield led the Sooners to a 23-7 halftime lead, but the offense disappeared without him in the game. With backup Trevor Knight at the helm, the Oklahoma offense punted on six of nine drives. Knight completed just five of 16 passes for 76 yards. The Sooners’ game-winning score came on a 72-yard touchdown run by Samaje Perine. Offensive coordinator Lincoln Riley said he changed the offensive gameplan when Mayfield was out and that’s what stunted the offense. If Oklahoma defeats Oklahoma State in this weekend’s Bedlam game it would mean a Big 12 title for the Sooners and a possible spot in the College Football Playoff.
