TCU 360: TCU looking to slow down Oklahoma offense
Written by Garrett Podell
TCU’s defense will focus on shutting down 2015 Heisman Trophy finalist Baker Mayfield on Saturday when the Horned Frogs take on the Oklahoma Sooners.
“He’s a strong guy who can move really well and throw it, too,” defensive end Josh Carraway said. “We just have to collapse the pocket and make it difficult to throw it in there.”
In addition to Mayfield, the Frogs will also have to contain junior running back Samaje Perine and redshirt sophomore Joe Mixon, who leads the Big 12 Conference with 8.4 yards per carry.
“They have really good tailbacks,” head coach Gary Patterson said. “Mixon has been a guy who’s gotten more involved in the offense each week, and he’s a really good player.”
