Caleb Williams put together a fantastic first start for No. 4 Oklahoma after a heroic performance in the Red River Game last week, when he sparked a second half comeback against Texas.
Williams validated coach Lincoln Riley's decision to move to the freshman sensation in favor of Spencer Rattler in an impressive win over TCU at home, winning 52-31. The Sooners covered the 13-point spread at WynnBET Sportsbook with ease and nearly cleared the over themselves, which was set at 64.5.
Williams was electric from the opening kick, completing 18-of-23 passes for 295 yards and four touchdown passes. He also added this slick touchdown run:

Oklahoma remains undefeated on the season and seem revitalized with Williams under center. At 7-0, the Sooners are looking like the College Football Playoff contender they were expected to be going into the season. The team travels to play 1-5 Kansas next Saturday.
