McCully plays big in Oil Bowl

Oklahoma and Texas met up for the 74th edition of the Oil Bowl in Wichita Falls, Texas on June 18th. The Lone Star state got a Chad Hedlund 39-yard field goal in overtime to give the Texans a 17-14 win.

McCully (center) led both teams with 83-yards receiving.

The Oklahoma 14-points were all set up by Guthrie’s Devante McCully, who finished with two catches (38,45) for 83-yards. The 83-yards receiving was the most yards brought in for either team. Photo Gallery

McCully, an East Central signee, was the 16th player selected to play in the all-star game from Guthrie. The Jays have had at least one player play in the Oil Bowl the past five seasons.

Texas jumped out to a 6-0 lead, but Oklahoma took a 7-6 lead into recess and had their biggest lead at 14-6 in the third quarter. Texas took advantage of a safety on a bad Oklahoma snap and a 4-yard touchdown run to tie the game in regulation.
