The upcoming draft could mark a dominant trend for Oklahoma.
Oklahoma center Creed Humphrey is projected to go No. 20 overall to the Minnesota Vikings in the 2021 NFL Draft, per Luke Easterling of Draft Wire.
If chosen in the first round, he would mark the sixth offensive linemen taken for co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh in just three years.
After redshirting in 2017, Humphrey earned All-American honors in both 2018 and 2019, firmly cementing himself as one of the best offensive linemen in the country.
Humphrey played in all 14 games for the Sooners last season, registering 93 knockdowns and allowing a single sack in 799 plays.
Only five offensive linemen were projected to be drafted above him.
Oklahoma returns their entire offensive line unit of Tyrese Robinson, Marquise Hayes, Adrian Ealy, Stacey Wilkins, Erik Swenson and Humphrey.
The Sooners are currently set to kick off their season against Missouri State on September 5. No alterations have been made to their schedule, including any against Army in West Point, New York.
