Sooners find the way to win a close one
There is no doubt Oklahoma would have lost this game last year.
A close contest, with the Sooners offense’s sputtering run game hindering its scoring early and an opponent that brought a top 5 offense to town.
But this year Oklahoma has found a way to win the close ones. And did so on a pleasant fall Saturday in Norman, defeating UCF 31-29 to grab its fourth conference win and remain unbeaten at 7-0.
They did it with a good defensive effort, holding UCF to just one first down in the first quarter and holding the nation’s No. 3 rushing offenses to 149 yards on 41 carries. UCF had average 246 yards per game coming into the contest.
