Eddie Crowder leveled the Texas defenses with slingshot passing and Buddy Leake, Billy Vessels and Buck McPhail riddled the Longhorn line as the Sooners slashed and tore in a display of power and finesse that awed the 75,504 fans jammed into the big saucer. Jumbles set up two Oklahoma touchdowns in the opening period and mighty throwing accounted for the other two. Texas came back gamely and actually dominated the second period but it was a foregone conclusion from the first six minutes that the Sooners were going to win. Jones rallied the Texas forces in the final period to pass' for two touchdowns but the Soon-; ers more than matched it with three.

It was the most decisive defeat suffered by a Texas team since 1944 W'hen Randolph Field beat the Longhorns 42-7. McPhail hammered and smashed through the big but futile Texas' line for 149 yards as leading ground-gainer of the day. Vessels made 106 yards and Leake 74.
