Never was it more apparent than on Jones' 35-yard touchdown pass to Justin Brown in the final moments of the first half.
The pass went into the wind, but Brown adjusted, dove behind Baylor cornerback Joe Williams and reached back to haul in the pass.
Jones was more efficient in the two quarters going into the wind, completing 11 of 12 passes for 100 yards. The Sooners threw more and had more passing yardage in the two quarters going with the wind, though, as Jones was 14 of 24 for 177 yards in the second and third quarters.
