NORMAN, Okla. — Tennessee coach Josh Heupel won in his return to Oklahoma — the same school he quarterbacked to a national championship in 2000 and fired him as offensive coordinator after the 2014 season — as Nico Iamaleava passed for 194 yards to help the sixth-ranked Volunteers defeat the Sooners 25-15 on Saturday night.Iamaleava took the game ball to Heupel shortly after the game ended."I know it meant a lot to him," Iamaleava said.
The moment’s not going to overwhelm him, even though he’s a young guy."Oklahoma defensive back Kendel Dolby was carted off in the second quarter after a gruesome injury to his lower right leg. Venables said it was a dislocated ankle, and Dolby soon will have surgery.All wasn’t bad for Oklahoma. The Sooners actually recovered fumbles by Iamaleava twice in the second quarter, only to have Arnold fumble the ball back to Tennessee on the next play both times.
