Sooners drop second game in a row — losing 55-24 to TCU
I hate to say it. But, the Sooners defense gave up mid-way through their stunning loss to TCU.
Then again, after giving up four big plays, each in excess of 60 yards, for touchdowns in the first half, who wouldn’t?
The Sooners suffered their worst loss since the John Blake era, losing to TCU 55-24.
Losing their first two conference games of the season is not unprecedented. Lincoln Riley’s 2020 Sooners team did that.
But losing in such convincing fashion leads one to believe this team just isn’t very good.
“We’re not very good obviously right now. We have a lot to get better at, a lot to improve,” said Coach Brent Venables.
