Oklahoma’s offense really was firing on all cylinders in the first half of Monday’s College Football Playoff game against Georgia. Everyone expected Baker Mayfield to put on a show with his arm, but he also did it with his hands. 

Just before the half, the Sooners stretched their lead to 31–14 with a nifty trick play. Mayfield tossed to fullback Dimitri Flowers, who then pitched to receiver CeeDee Lamb coming around on a reverse. Lamb tried to carry it himself into the end zone but instead opted to pass to Mayfield in the corner of the end zone. 

Georgia was able to make it a two-score game, though, on a 55-yard field goal by Rodrigo Blankenship as time expired in the half.
