Pick Analysis. QB. Jalen Hurts. player. Scouting Report. Oklahoma. 2. 815

Last week at Kansas: 16-for-24 (66.7%)| 228 yards| 2 TD| 1 INT| 10 rushes| 56 yards| 2 TD

Season Stats: 82-for-109 (75.2%)| 1,523 yards| 14 TD| 2 INT| 57 rushes| 499 yards| 7 TD

Jalen Hurts and Oklahoma seemed to almost sleepwalk through the game vs. Kansas last week. There was no intensity or fire on the part of the Sooners on Saturday. That being said, Hurts put together a solid game to bail them out by accounting for over 275 total yards and four total touchdowns. That includes this smooth option fake and touchdown in the third quarter:

Hurts has been a revelation under Lincoln Riley and has been easily one of the most impressive players to begin the 2019 season. He will need to get back to his superhuman level production this week when Oklahoma plays no. 11-ranked Texas in the Red River Rivalry.
