Carson Field

This is the intro shot from my highlight tape of the #Sooners win over Tennessee. The clip shows only a glimpse of how great the atmosphere is at Neyland Stadium. Getting to play in football cathedrals like Neyland is one of many reasons why OU joined the SEC.

"Our relationship’s only tighter now than it’s ever been, and that’s probably because of the struggle." #Sooners QB John Mateer believes he has improved and gotten closer to OC Ben Arbuckle as a result of the trials he faced in 2025. STORY: si.com/college/oklaho… @SoonersOnSI

DE Jake Kreul was the highest-ranked prospect that OU signed from the Class of 2026. How likely is it that Kreul is a Day 1 contributor for the #Sooners in 2026? I explored for @SoonersOnSI: si.com/college/oklaho…

ESPN ranked the top 10 coaches in college football last week, and OU's Brent Venables didn't make the cut. How can he get there? I explored for @SoonersOnSI: si.com/college/oklaho…

Why do people conveniently forget that Sam Leavitt threw for 82 yards and 2 INTs vs Mississippi State? He’s talented, yes, but also wildly inconsistent. Maybe I’ll eat my words, but I think Ole Miss, Texas A&M and Bama (in that order) are more likely to make the CFP than LSU.

Oklahoma added reinforcements to each of its offensive position groups during the offseason. Which of those groups improved the most during the offseason? On paper, it looks like the wide receiver room. STORY: si.com/college/oklaho… @SoonersOnSI

The MLB All-Star Game was exponentially better when it determined home-field advantage for the World Series

There’s, rightfully, lots of hype surrounding David Stone leading into the #Sooners’ 2026 season. Fellow star DT Jayden Jackson, however, hasn’t gotten as much national attention. I broke down why Jackson is a sleeper for all-SEC honors: si.com/college/oklaho… @SoonersOnSI

College fantasy football is coming to Yahoo. Which Sooners will be must-pick players? I broke down five potential stars for @SoonersOnSI: si.com/college/oklaho…

The #Sooners' 2027 class is up to three 5-stars. CB Gabriel Osborne Jr. of Mustang (OK) checked into the latest Rivals300 at No. 21 and earned his fifth star. More on the state of OU's 2027 class: si.com/college/oklaho…

*sighs* Seven weeks until CFB Week Zero!

4-star RB Keldrid Ben (@KBEn26_) reaffirmed his Oklahoma pledge last night. As it stands, OU has a consensus top-six recruiting class for the 2027 cycle. I broke down why Ben's decision to stay committed to the #Sooners is massive: si.com/college/oklaho…

The #Sooners are in the game 🎮🏈👀 EA College Football 27 dropped this week, and I simulated OU's season 30 times. Overall, the results are very favorable for Oklahoma. In-depth breakdown of these simulations @SoonersOnSI: si.com/college/oklaho…

The #Sooners faced 10 of the 21 college players taken in the first 30 picks of the MLB Draft this year: 3. Vahn Lackey (GT) 5. Derek Curriel (LSU) 8. Drew Burress (GT) 11. Chris Hacopian (A&M) 15. Ryder Helfrick (ARK) 17. Logan Hughes (TTU) 18. Justin Lebron (Bama) 19. Liam Peterson (UF) 20. Jake Schaffner (UNC) 27. Carson Wiggins (ARK) You've gotta think that playing some of the best helped OU be the best by year's end.

The #Sooners checked into ESPN's Football Power Index at No. 12. They are behind five other SEC squads in those rankings. What do these metrics say about OU's chances to return to the College Football Playoff? I explored for @SoonersOnSI: si.com/college/oklaho…

Golf equivalent of Wemby passing into Stephon Castle’s back with 10 seconds left. (Would’ve been my first time breaking 80…)

Update: Kent State dynasty on Heisman difficulty is not for the faint of heart
