Game to Watch (CollegeFootballNews.com)
Sept. 9 at Ohio State – The road game at Oklahoma State might mean everything to the Big 12 chase, and dates at Kansas State and against Texas will be right there in terms of importance, but OU can afford a conference loss and be just fine. All that matters now in the Big 12 is whether or not you finish in the top two, then you’re in the championship game.
But if the Sooners want to get back into the College Football Playoff, they might have to avenge last year’s loss against Ohio State – and do it in Columbus. Lose, and it might be tough to get in without being perfect the rest of the way. Win, and the Sooners get the street cred that carried the Buckeyes into the CFP, even though they didn’t win the Big Ten and finished with a loss.
Concerns
There is a degree of inexperience among the front seven though one would expect a strong secondary to compensate for this.
The Sooners return all five offensive line starters and pass-catching tight end Mark Andrews joining Heisman Trophy contender Baker Mayfield
