It’s been a rough few weeks for the Oklahoma Sooners. After three straight losses, expectations are being recalibrated as Brent Venables and his coaching staff looks to lay a foundation for the Sooners for the future.
Until then, the Sooners are in the midst of one of the worst three-game stretches in program history. Get a win this weekend, and perhaps it can turn things around a bit.
This week, they take on a team that has perennially been in ESPN’s bottom 10 teams put together by Ryan McGee. Well, in a role reversal, the Kansas Jayhawks play the ranked team, while the Oklahoma Sooners find themselves in McGee’s bottom ten.
Now, it might be a bit of hyperbole based on the last three weeks. But in those three games, the Sooners haven’t been able to stop anybody, and the offense was inconsistent, even with Dillon Gabriel at quarterback.
However, it feels a bit wild to put the Sooners in this group, as eight of the other 10 teams have one or fewer losses on the season. The Sooners have been bad the last three games of the season, but that shouldn’t completely wipe away everything they did to UTEP, Kent State, and Nebraska. They might not be a top 50 team, but they certainly aren’t a bottom 10 club right now.
Here’s McGee’s bottom 10.
