He finished with 285 passing yards and one touchdown while completing 23 of his 38 pass attempts. Gabriel added 113 rushing yards and one touchdown on 14 carries.

Following the game, Oklahoma wide receiver Jalil Farooq advocated for his quarterback to win the Heisman Trophy:

"I've been saying it since day one since I met him. He's one of the guys that brings it day in and day out. Consistent, he's a great leader. And I'm going to keep saying it – he deserves the Heisman this year. So, I'm going to keep promoting that until he gets it." [h/t KOCO News]

As for Gabriel, he says that he's not worried about the award:

"It's not my main focus. You know, I'm focused on heading into this bye week and getting better, watching the tape and finding ways to get better and then taking it one week at a time. I think as you do that, the rest will take care of itself."

While Gabriel may not be focused on winning the Heisman Trophy, his chances of doing so have continued to increase. Oklahoma is tied with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Ohio State Buckeyes and USC Trojans as the schools with the most players to win the award.
