Oklahoma earned a 16-13 win over West Virginia in a Week 4 matchup. Here are some notable numbers from the contest.

7: The Sooners were held to seven points at halftime for the second week in a row. Prior to last week’s game against Nebraska, OU hadn’t been held to seven points in the first half of a game since Sept. 9, 2017.

21: A bad snap led to a loss of 21 yards and derailed a potential gamewinnin­g drive by West Virginia with 3:39 left in the game. OU marched down the field on the ensuing possession and won the game via a 30yard field goal by kicker Gabe Brkic.

6: After being booed by fans in the first half, OU quarterbac­k Spencer Rattler redeemed himself by completing all six of his passing attempts for 54 yards on the Sooners’ gamewinnin­g drive.

2019: The Sooners erased a fourthquar­ter deficit for the first time since Nov. 16, 2019. OU trailed Baylor 3117 entering the fourth quarter before scoring 17 unanswered points to earn a 34-31 win. The Sooners trailed the Mountainee­rs 13-10 entering the final quarter of Saturday’s contest and ultimately secured a 16-13 victory.

16: The Sooners scored 16 points on Saturday. It’s the team’s lowestscor­ing point total in a winning effort since Sept. 7, 2013, when it earned a 16-7 win over West Virginia.
