Nine Oklahoma players make All-Big 12 first and second teams for 2020

It’s a little bit shocking when you look at it. Oklahoma has landed nine different players on the all-Big 12 first and second team.

The Big 12’s head coaches have decided the league’s all-conference selections, and Oklahoma has landed nine different players on the all-Big 12 first and second team.

Kicker Gabe Brkic, H-Back Jeremiah Hall and center Creed Humphrey represented Oklahoma’s three additions to the All-Big 12 first team. This marks the 20th consecutive season that Oklahoma has landed at least three players on the all-Big 12 first team. Oklahoma trails only Iowa State (five) with their three players on the first team.

Six Sooners were named to the second team: cornerback Tre Brown, offensive lineman Adrian Ealy, wide receiver Marvin Mims, defensive end Ronnie Perkins, defensive end Isaiah Thomas and defensive tackle Perrion Winfrey. Oklahoma led all Big 12 teams with six different players on the all-conference second team.

Oklahoma trails only Iowa State (11) with nine players each across the two teams. The Sooners and Cyclones are set to face off in a rematch for the Big 12 Championship in Arlington, Texas on Saturday at 11 a.m. CT.

Oklahoma football notebook: Lincoln Riley, offensive players talk Tuesday

Lincoln Riley along with Jeremiah Hall, Erik Swenson and Theo Wease spoke to the media Tuesday ahead of the regular season finale.

Oklahoma is sitting at 7-2 after their defensive shutdown of Baylor last Saturday night 27-14.

Despite earning their sixth straight win and clinching a spot in the Big 12 title game, the Sooners didn’t make a move in the College Football Playoff rankings remaining at No. 11.

The lack in upward movement likely is a result in a very rare offensive struggle for Lincoln Riley and company against the Bears in the home finale. The offense simply wasn’t very effective, just doing enough to get by and get the win behind a fantastic defensive outing.

After the game, Lincoln Riley made it clear his displeasure with how the offense performed in that game. On Tuesday, he kept that frustration going in his weekly press conference.

Along with Riley, tight end/h-back Jeremiah Hall, offensive lineman Erik Swenson and wide receiver Theo Wease spoke to the media about the latest with the offense. Here is what they had to say.

What Lincoln Riley, Spencer Rattler, offensive players said after 41-13 win over Oklahoma State

Lincoln Riley, Spencer Rattler, Theo Wease and Jeremiah Hall met with the media following Oklahoma’s blowout win over Oklahoma State.

Oklahoma dominated Bedlam tonight by a whopping final score of 41-13 over in-state rival Oklahoma State.

The Sooner offense got off a very fast start scoring on their first three possessions to lead 21-0 just a little over midway through the opening quarter. They would then slow down quite a bit, only scoring only six points on two field goals in the next two quarters combined, before putting together a couple of game-sealing touchdowns in the final frame.

Spencer Rattler was fantastic offering up one of his best outings of his young career going 17/24 passing for 301 yards and four touchdowns with no turnovers. He also ran for a touchdown making him just the fourth Oklahoma player in the last 20 years to throw for four scores and run for another.

After the game, Lincoln Riley, Spencer Rattler, Theo Wease and Jeremiah Hall met with the media to break down the game. Here is what they had to say.

Oklahoma football notebook: Lincoln Riley, players preview Bedlam on Tuesday

Ahead of Bedlam on Saturday, OU head coach Lincoln Riley followed by Creed Humphrey, Jeremiah Hall, and Rhamondre Stevenson spoke Tuesday.

No. 17/18 Oklahoma is set to return to action on Saturday after another bye week when they host Bedlam rival No. 14 Oklahoma State.

The game has massive Big 12 title implications and really will go a long way toward determining the fate of both teams’ seasons.

Offensively, the Sooners are firing on all cylinders in recent games. They hung 62 points in each of the last two games with the return of running back Rhamondre Stevenson from suspension.

The offensive line has been improved as well, and has allowed young quarterback Spencer Rattler to settle in quite nicely and continue to progress each week since his benching against Texas.

On Tuesday, Lincoln Riley along with Creed Humphrey, Jeremiah Hall, and Stevenson met with the media to discuss the latest with the team ahead of Bedlam this weekend. Here is what they had to say.

Oklahoma 2020 player card: No. 27 Jeremiah Hall

Sooners Wire will be creating player cards for readers to be introduced to the 2020 roster. Here is No. 27 Jeremiah Hall.

There is a ton of momentum to having a 2020 college football season these days. No definite signs, yet, but the season would start less than 100 days from now.

Sooners Wire will be creating player cards for readers to be introduced to the 2020 roster.

Here is No. 27 for Oklahoma.

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Name: Jeremiah Hall

Number: No. 27

Year: Redshirt junior

Position: H-back

Hometown: Charlotte, NC

Height/Weight: 6-foot-2, 243 pounds


A three-star tight end out of the 2017 class hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina, Jeremiah Hall had offers from Clemson, Florida State, North Carolina and others, but opted to go with Lincoln Riley’s high-powered offense.

Hall works well in Riley’s plug-and-play scheme, replacing Dimitri Flowers as his flex player, running, receiving and blocking. Hall ran the ball just two times, but caught 16 passes for 169 yards and three touchdowns. Hall finished with touchdowns against Houston, South Dakota and West Virginia last season.

Still only a sophomore last season, Hall has more room for improvement, and with Riley’s offensive weapons depleted earlier in the season due to injuries and suspensions, Hall could see an increased role early.

12 Sooners were honored on the all-Big 12 first and second-teams. First team members include CeeDee Lamb, Jalen Hurts, Creed Humphrey…

Once again, the Sooners dominate the all-Big 12 teams.

12 Sooners were honored on the all-Big 12 first and second-teams. First team members include CeeDee Lamb, Jalen Hurts, Creed Humphrey and Kenneth Murray. Both Lamb and Muray landed on the first-team for their first time in their Oklahoma careers.

Other Sooners that picked up honorable mentions include Pat Fields, Reeves Mundschau, Jalen Redmond, Delarrin Turner-Yell and DaShaun White.

Oklahoma led the league in honorees followed by Baylor with 10, TCU (9), Iowa State (8), Oklahoma State (6), Kansas State, Texas Tech, West Virginia (5), Texas (4) and Kansas (2).

With not much surprise, both teams with the most Big 12 honorees are the teams playing for the Big 12 Championship and a possible College Football Playoff birth.

Oklahoma and Baylor will face off in a rematch following their thrilling 34-31 bout in November. Kickoff is set for 11a.m. CT on FOX.
