The wheels fell off on Oklahoma’ Sooner’s push for a spot in the Big 12 Championship, but Brent Venables‘ bunch will still be bowling this winter after finishing 10-2 this season.
At the midpoint of the 2023 season, it looked like the Sooners had a good chance of appearing at the College Football Playoff when they started 8-0 and, at one point, moved into the top five in national rankings. However, the Sooners’ dreams were shattered after they lost two games in a row to Kansas and Oklahoma State.
Despite the setback, Venables completed his second season as the head coach of the Sooners as the No. 12 team in the country, a significant improvement from his first season when the Sooners finished 6-6. The Sooners are now looking forward to a postseason bowl game before they head to the SEC.
