Mayfield gained notoriety for planting a flag at midfield of Ohio State’s stadium after leading Oklahoma to a win in 2017.

College football rivalry week was turned up a notch this year thanks to an outbreak of attempted flag plantings. It's not exactly a new trend, as former Oklahoma QB Baker Mayfield can attest to. He may have been one of the first that people remember doing the act when he did so at Ohio State in 2017.

An NFL player who knows a lot about planting flags in college football is Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, who infamously threw down the Sooner flag while playing for Oklahoma. When he was asked about what went down in college football on Saturday, he seemed open to keeping these celebrations alive.
