Oklahoma football has provided its fans something to do during the final weekend of the stay-at-home orders across many states.
The Sooners have played replays of the alumni games of the teams from the 1950s and 60s, the 2000 national championship game and most, if not all of the OU-Texas wins since 1999. There have been plenty of memorable games since, but Oklahoma has gotten around to one of the most memorable and impactful wins in program history.
On Saturday at 6:00 CT, a replay of the 2014 Sugar Bowl between Oklahoma and Alabama will take place on SoonerSports.tv, which is free through the end of May.
Trevor Knight threw, Eric Striker sacked and the 2013 Oklahoma football team found a way against Alabama in New Orleans. It kept the Sooners amongst relevancy from average years in 2011 and 2012 in relative terms to Oklahoma football. The Sugar Bowl win was also the catalyst to the new renovations to Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium which bowled in the south end zone and became much more fan friendly.
Oklahoma would go on and have one of the three less than 10-win seasons since 2000 in 2014. Trevor Knight went from Heisman hopeful to backup to Baker Mayfield. Offensive coordinator Josh Heupel and wide receivers coach Jay Norvell would eventually be fired and paved the way for Lincoln Riley and Dennis Simmons to come to Norman, Oklahoma.
