LUBBOCK, Texas -- Baker Mayfield knew Texas Techs offense would put up points Saturday night.I told some of the guys at halftime, `If youre scared and you dont want to score every drive, then stay in here, the Sooners quarterback said.The only thing to stop No. 16 Oklahoma after that was the final whistle.Mayfield passed for seven touchdowns and 545 yards to help the Sooners beat Texas Tech 66-59 in a game that broke the NCAA record for combined offensive yards with 1,708.Mayfield completed 27 of 36 passes and broke the school game touchdown mark of six held by Landry Jones. His TD passes went for 56, 49, 23, 23, 43, 34 and 15 yards.The Sooners scored on five of their six second-half possessions, and the exception was when they ran out the clock in the fourth quarter.Joe Mixon caught three touchdowns passes and Dede Westbrook had two for the Sooners (5-2, 4-0 Big 12). Mixon also ran for two touchdowns, a 46-yarder and a 42-yarder. He finished with 263 yards rushing and 114 yards receiving. Hes the first Sooner ever to reach 200 yards rushing and 100 receiving in the same game.I thought Joe Mixon just had a game for the ages, Sooners coach Bob Stoops said. Just incredible.Westbrook caught nine passes for 202 yards.Hes phenomenal, Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury said. Hes just better than anybody we had on the field.Pat Mahomes threw for five touchdowns and 734 yards for Texas Tech (3-4, 1-3). His passing yards total tied the NCAA record, matching Connor Halliday when Washington State played California in 2014.Someone told me (about tying the passing record) in the locker room, Mahomes said. But, like I said, we didnt win the game, so it really didnt matter.The 125 points are the second-most in a game involving a ranked team. The record is 133 in No. 9 West Virginias 70-63 victory over No. 25 Baylor on Sept. 29, 2012.The teams surpassed the 1,640 yards gained when Nevada played San Jose State in 2001.Oklahoma defensive coordinator Mike Stoops was disappointed in his unit.Everything we did, they had guys running free pretty much all night, he said. We thought we were making improvements. To fall on our face like this, weve got to re-evaluate some things were doing.Kingsbury was glad the game wasnt an embarrassment that last weeks 48-17 loss to West Virginia.I thought we were into it, a lot more passionate at least, he said. I thought at least we had good energy.THE TAKEAWAYOklahoma: The Sooners relied heavily on Mixon, who finished with 31 carries, and his work made it easier to be without Samaje Perine. Perine, who has six rushing TDs, is out for at least two weeks with a pulled leg muscle .Texas Tech: The Red Raiders defense, often derided as weak and porous, put together three stops against the Sooners in the first half. Texas Tech forced punts on two OU possessions and held the Sooners on fourth-and-1 when they stopped Mixon deep in Red Raiders territory.POLL IMPLICATIONSOklahoma likely wont move up much in the AP Top 25 poll after the win -- Texas Tech hasnt been ranked this season -- but the Red Raiders might get some votes after playing the Sooners so closely.EVEN OFFENSEBoth teams finished with the same number of total yards -- 854. The longest pass play by each quarterback was 56 yards. Mahomes had the most yards rushing: 85 to 19 for Mayfield.UP NEXTOklahoma: The Sooners play Kansas at home next Saturday.Texas Tech: The Red Raiders face TCU in Fort Worth next Saturday.

CHICAGO -- After back-to-back series against teams all but out of postseason contention, the Chicago White Sox host a Seattle Mariners team with much more at stake.The Mariners (67-59) open a four-game weekend series at U.S. Cellular Field on Thursday three games outside of an American League wild card spot following Wednesdays 5-0 loss to the New York Yankees.Seattle had been among the hottest teams in baseball with 15 wins in 20 games before cooling off a bit this week with back-to-back losses to the Yankees at Safeco Field.Chicago right-hander Anthony Ranaudo (1-1, 9.42 ERA) works against a Mariners pitcher yet to be named in Thursdays series opener. On Friday, right-hander Felix Hernandez (8-4, 3.26) meets White Sox lefty Chris Sale (15-6, 3.15).Seattle claimed two wins over Chicago in a three-game home series last month.The Mariners hope to have third baseman Kyle Seager back for the series. He sat out Wednesday after fouling a ball off his foot on Tuesday. Initial X-rays were reported to be negative. Seager has 24 home runs and 83 RBI this season.Robinson Cano needs one double for 30 this season. He has exceeded that total in each of his first 11 seasons.Seattle has a shot at reclaiming the AL West lead. The Mariners topped the division through most of May before struggling over the next two months and started August at .500 (52-52) and in third place.They are 6 1/2 games behind first-place Texas and have seven head-to-head games remaining with the Raangers in an 11-day stretch starting next Monday.ddddddddddddhicago (60-65) has played better of late, taking two of three from Oakland last weekend and splitting two games with visiting Philadelphia this week.Over a three-game winning streak through Tuesday, Chicago pitchers had allowed only five runs while 1B/DH Jose Abreu has homered in each.But like the Athletics and Phillies, the White Sox are also playing out the string after beginning the season 23-10.With less than five weeks left in the regular season, speculation is rising about postseason shakeups ranging from the departure of manager Robin Ventura and front office personnel to major trades including ace left-hander Chris Sale and right-hander Jose Quintana.Weve got to get some things together, White Sox executive vice president Kenny Williams told reporters this week. As everyone knows by now, we started off very well. Unfortunately things kind of unraveled and we lost some key members of our bullpen which didnt help and kind of spearheaded that unraveling.Not even the ballpark is being spared.The Illinois Sports Facilities Authority, owner of the White Sox home field, announced a 13-year naming rights agreement with a Chicago-based mortgage company Wednesday. The parks name changes from U.S. Cellular Field to Guaranteed Rate Field on Nov. 1. Terms were not disclosed. ' ' '
