A Tale of Two Halves — Sooners win 33-3
If the Oklahoma-Kent State game was a forecast of the Sooners’ 2022 season, we can expect the best of times and the worst of times from this team.
Their 33-3 win before flashing stadium lights on Saturday night was a tale of two halves (apologies to Charles Dickens).
The offense in the first half was flat. And that is being generous.
Perhaps we should have known the game would be surreal when earlier on Saturday the computer system relied upon by the athletic ticket office crashed and prevented half the fans from downloading their digital tickets for the game.
That error was corrected a few hours before kickoff.
The offense’s errors took a little longer — until the last minute of the second quarter, with three straight Dillion Gabriel passes to Marvin Mims — the last being a 36-yarder to give the Sooners their first score to take the 7-0 lead going into halftime.
