OU wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. waited until the regular-season finale to make possibly the best catch of the year.
On the first play of the second quarter Saturday against Texas Tech, Oklahoma quarterback Dillon Gabriel threw a ball up to Mims on the right sideline. What happened next will probably end up on SportsCenter. Mims, who ran a fade route out of the slot, went up and over a Red Raiders defender to make an acrobatic 30-yard reception.
"Level of difficulty: 12.6," FS1 play-by-play announcer Eric Collins said on the broadcast. "Marvin Mims with Oklahoma's best catch this year. Probably the best catch in the Big 12."
