Oklahoma wrapped up their nonconference schedule for the 2023 regular season on Saturday with pure domination of their in-state foe, the Tulsa Golden Hurricane. Oklahoma blew the doors off Tulsa 66-17.
From the outset, the Sooners had a weird start as starting receiver and kick returner Jalil Farooq fumbled the opening kick to Tulsa. But from then on, the Sooners were in control.
The week there was a lot of focus on Oklahoma’s offense and the conservative approach against SMU.
Jeff Lebby answered those concerns quickly, and the defense continued their improved and inspired play on the way to a runaway victory.
