The Adventures of Soonerguy
Somewhere, in the deep vastness of outer space, something hurtles through the cosmos, past the Orion Nebula, through the Andromeda galaxy, heading inexorably in the direction of the Milky Way, in which nestles our own solar system, planet Earth and, inevitably, ‘Merica.
Across the endless void, it makes its way to the Sooner Nation itself, home of all that’s right and good in the universe!
Soonerguy, unaware of all this, sits at home in his secret underground headquarters on the campus of the University of Oklahoma, lounging in his La-z-Sooner chair, watching old Orange Bowl games on VHS, and eating vast quantities of Cheese Doodles.
Sooner defense saves stuttering offense in 27-13 win over Iowa State
Midway through the third quarter the early stellar play by Oklahoma’s defense was called into question.
Iowa State converted on a 4th and 11 and then again on 4th and 12, scoring a touchdown to cut the Sooner lead to 20-13.
Meanwhile, the Oklahoma offense hit a brick wall, with three drives in a row ending in three and outs.
But that’s when the defense came back to life in the fourth quarter, getting two of their three interceptions to kill any chance the Cyclones of making a homefield comeback and securing a much needed 27-13 win in Ames.
Redshirt senior safety Justin Broiles and sophomore linebacker Danny Stutsman grabbed the crucial fourth quarter interceptions.
The win moved the Sooners record to 5-3 for the season and 2-3 in Big 12 play.
It was the largest margin of victory the Sooners have had over Iowa State since 2015.
