Sooners take care of business, turn to Texas
We can talk about the Oklahoma-Kent State if you want. But this is now officially the “Red River Rivalry/Shoot/Out/Who will be the Sooners’ starting QB Week,” so is there really any need?
Yes, Oklahoma soundly whipped an undermanned Kent State team 44-0, giving the Sooners’ their first fumble recovery for a TD, first interception and first shut out for the season on a sunny day in Norman.
It didn’t take Coach Brent Venables long after the game to turn to what most fans were thinking about even before kickoff Saturday.
Oklahoma vs. Texas. The Sooners are going into this game undefeated at 5-0, something they’ve done 15 out of the last 25 years. In those games against Texas, the Sooners won 10 and lost five.
“Guys are looking forward to that challenge and the work and the preparation that’s got to go into another week,” Venables said. “The challenges of what’s sitting in front of us with Texas (is) something I know our guys will be looking for.”
