Sooners find a way to win — again
Imagine a drunken sailor behind the wheel of a beat-up pick up held together with bailing wire — and then watch him win the Daytona 500.
I don’t know what else to say about this Oklahoma Sooners football team, the team that came from behind and defeated LSU tonight 17-14 to punch its ticket to the College Football Playoffs.
It was a crazy ending to an improbable 10-win regular season.
The Sooners were behind 13-10 with only 4:13 left in the game, when QB John Mateer found Isaiah Sategna wide open downfield — as if the LSU secondary had a shock of dementia after an unexpected fireworks show from OU Ruf/Neks at the close of the third quarter and forgot to shadow the Sooners’ best player — and heaved an arching pass his way.
Sategna caught it, then scampered untouched to the end zone to give Oklahoma a 17-14 lead in the waning minutes of the game.
