It’s happening.
Who knows what crystal ball Lincoln Riley had looked into, but his 2019 Oklahoma team can start making reservations for a week long trip to attend the College Football Playoff.
The now No. 6 ranked Sooners are sure to rise to at least No. 4 come Sunday at 11 a.m. CT thanks to LSU’s 37-10 win over Georgia in the SEC Championship.
Oklahoma was hopeless after losing 47-41 at Kansas State on Oct. 26. The Sooners needed chaos, and chaos is what they got.
Alabama suffered two losses. Oregon lost to Arizona State. Penn State got beat by Minnesota. Georgia got beat by LSU.
All while, the Sooners rattled off five-straight wins. Only one was a comfortable win at Oklahoma State, but they were wins—including a 30-23 overtime thrilling win over Baylor in the Big 12 Championship.
The next destination is still up in the air, but all sights right now are on Atlanta for the Peach Bowl and a date with Joe Burrow and LSU or Justin Fields, Chase Young and Ohio State.
That will officially be announced on Sunday at 11 a.m. CT on ESPN.
