There will be a fair amount of chatter surrounding Oklahoma football in the coming weeks and months. The Sooners are just days away from wrapping up the 2021 recruiting cycle with the Feb. 3 National Signing Day almost upon us. As important as the recruiting class is the number of players who are also transferring in. Most recently, they have landed three transfers from the University of Tennessee alone.
It would be fair to say that Lincoln Riley isn’t likely done just yet. The losses of Creed Humphrey, Ronnie Perkins, Rhamondre Stevenson, Tre Brown, and Adrian Ealy aren’t small ones. The Sooners staff might need to get creative in how they replace them. All of that will be worked out in due time.
One of the annual traditions of the offseason is power rankings, preseason rankings, and even breaking college football into tiers. ESPN recently broke down the FBS schools into a 10-tier ranking. Sooners Wire breaks down where the Big 12 schools are ranked and where is Oklahoma?
