NORMAN, Okla. -- Oklahomas Baker Mayfield and Dede Westbrook will have an ideal stage as they make their final impressions on Heisman Trophy voters.The seventh-ranked Sooners host No. 11 Oklahoma State on Saturday in what amounts to a Big 12 title game. Mayfield and Westbrook want to take advantage as all eyes will be on just a few games and players during conference championship weekend.Mayfields situation was far less favorable last year. Though he and the Sooners were impressive in a 58-23 win over Oklahoma State in their regular-season finale, the quarterback missed a chance to impress voters because the Sooners were idle the next week as conference title games were being played. Mayfield didnt get an invitation to New York for the Heisman ceremony and finished fourth in the balloting. Coaches and players have said they feel the Sooners not playing the final weekend last season played a role in him not being invited.We knew he was supposed to be there, just as well as we know it again this year, Westbrook said.This year, the Sooners and Cowboys both were off the Saturday after Thanksgiving, pushing their rivalry game into December. Westbrook said Oklahomas primary focus is beating Oklahoma State, but the individual honors matter, and he likes the stage.Coming out this week, were going to make a statement to the country by, of course, competing to the best of our abilities against Oklahoma State, and showcasing to the world that both he (Mayfield) and I should be in the Heisman (finalists), Westbrook said.Mayfield, a finalist for the Maxwell and Davey OBrien Awards, leads the nation in passing efficiency (194.7) and yards per passing attempt (10.9) and ranks second in the nation in completion percentage. He has accounted for at least three touchdowns in all eight Big 12 games to lead the nations No. 2 scoring offense.Westbrook, a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award that honors the nations best receiver, got off to a slow start as he worked through a hamstring injury. He has bounced back with 1,200 yards and 15 touchdowns in eight Big 12 games. His 11 touchdown receptions of 40 yards or more this season match the most of any FBS player in the past 18 years.Westbrook has said for the past few weeks that Mayfield should win the Heisman. Mayfield said last week that he was flattered when he heard about Westbrooks praise.Its humbling, Mayfield said. Especially coming from a guy like that, as talented as he is. He deserves to be in New York at the end of the year. Im just trying to get him the passes he needs and the opportunities he can get to get him to that place. Its nice to have the support from your teammates, knowing they believe in you. It gives you a lot of trust.Offensive tackle Orlando Brown considers it his responsibility to help Mayfield and Westbrook get to New York.Its important, Brown said. As much as it means to those guys is as much as it means to me. Theyre not selfish guys. Them winning the Heisman -- Im in it for them. If thats what they want to do, Im out here every day working hard to put myself in the best position to help them.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25.---Follow Cliff Brunt on Twitter: www.twitter.com/CliffBruntAP Jared Cook Jersey .

CHICAGO -- Dwyane Wade made his Chicago homecoming a memorable affair, contributing 22 points, six rebounds and five assists to the Bulls 105-99 win over the Boston Celtics on Thursday night.In his first regular-season appearance as a member of the Bulls, Wade had fans cheering from start to finish as he authored the beginning of a new chapter in his Hall of Fame career.After being announced as from Chicago in the starting lineup introductions, Wade, who is from Robbins, Illinois, took a knee for a moment before making his way through a line of high-fives with some of his teammates.Ive been waiting on that moment for a long time, Wade said. I know it was special, obviously, for my family who was here. Theyve been waiting on it probably just as long. I just took that moment just to thank God for giving me this opportunity to be here, to do these things, to have this career I have. And to be able to make a decision on my own. And put myself in a position where I can live a dream out. I was very thankful in that moment. Took that knee to just thank the Lord and hear the cheers in the crowd and take in a moment. And then, its game time.Wade signed with the Bulls over the summer after 13 seasons with the Miami Heat. He has been heralded throughout training camp as a solid leader and a player his younger teammates can learn from, alongside veteran point guard Rajon Rondo.Making his presence known throughout the game, Wade went 7-for-18 from the field and hit the biggest shot of the night, a 3-pointer with 26.3 seconds left that gave the Bulls a five-point lead they would not relinquish.Wade said he had an out-of-body experience after knocking down the 3, which included a throat slash toward the Celtics.Were not the team that everyone is analytically putting together, Wade said of the new-look Bulls. But were a team of guys who can compete. Were a team of guys who have pride. Were a team of guys with talent. Once you make it all work together, it doesnt matter about analytics or the game. Its about players. And its about going out there and competing. And we were able to do that tonight. So were able to do that on a consistent basis. Who knows if the 3s going to go in, but we know if we compete and give that effort, well have a chance to win every night, and thats all you can ask for in this league.Wades performance underscored why the Bulls front office was so happy to land him over the summer. Not only did he help lead Chicago to victory, but he also gave the team a jolt of energy throughout the night and made plays when the game was on the line.He means a lot to this team, Bulls power forward Taj Gibson said.ddddddddddddWe need him to be the Wade hes always been. The guy whos not afraid to attack. The guys whos not afraid to take big shots like you see late in the game. ... When D-Wade took that shot, he made it, his expressions, how he was jumping around, his swag -- it was kind of awkward, because Im used to him kind of doing that against us on the opposing side. But it was a great thing. I was happy we got a win.Butler, who the Bulls hope can mature under Wades tutelage, sang his new teammates praises as well.Thats one less player I got to guard in this league, to tell you the truth, so Im excited about that, Butler said of Wade. But the way the game slows down for him, he knows where guys are going to be. Its hard to do, but thats what happens whenever you play 13, going on 14, years in this league. Hes so much smarter than a lot of guys, using his body and his athleticism to his advantage, so Im taking note.Former Heat teammate Chris Bosh took time to acknowledge how special Thursdays home debut was for Wade.Even Gabrielle Union, Wades wife, couldnt believe what she was seeing in her husbands debut.After watching Wade repeatedly knock down 3-pointers, Union took to Twitter to discuss her delight.Wade shot just 7-for-44 from beyond the arc last season with the Heat, but he went 4-for-6 from 3-point range Thursday.Told about his wifes tweet after the game, Wade started to chuckle.You got to keep the marriage spicy, Wade said. You cant let it get too comfortable with something. So, trying to switch my game up after two years of marriage.Wade might have been happiest of all after Thursdays win. It meant something special to him to be able to perform at such a high level in front of his friends and family.Were all from Chicago, man, Wade said, referring to his mother and father, who were in attendance at the United Center. I know this moment meant a lot [to them] as well. Theyre very proud of what Ive been able to accomplish in basketball, period. Even being in the NBA. Theyre very proud of me.But I know deep inside this means a lot to them. Because this is where we grew up, watching a little 12-inch TV together, trying to watch the Bulls game on WGN. So I know this moment was incredible for them as well, and I enjoyed it. Because I know my loved ones, my family, we grew up idolizing and worshiping this organization and Michael Jordan and Scottie [Pippen] and the Bulls. ' ' '
