Trying to stop Oklahoma Sooners quarterback Kyler Murray from beating you with his arm is challenging enough, it’s his skills as a runner that makes him unstoppable. Murray taught this lesson to the Kansas Jayhawks on a 75-yard touchdown run.
Kansas sold out to stop Murray’s ability as a passer to start the third quarter and it burned them. Oklahoma called the quarterback draw and Murray burst through the middle then outraced the defense on his way to a 75-yard touchdown.

We’ve seen Murray rip defenses apart with jaw-dropping throws and stunning moves as a runner. Yet he might have saved his biggest play for Week 12 with this perfectly executed draw play where his track speed took him the distance.
Even if Kansas spies on Murray the next drive and tries to take away his mobility, he’s just going to beat them with his arm. At the point, there’s nothing The Jayhawks can do but throw up their hands and admire Murray’s greatness.
