The Sooner Reign: How Many Big 12 Championships Has Oklahoma Hoarded?
Ah, Oklahoma Sooners. The crimson tide (or is it crimson and cream?) that washes over the Big 12 Conference year after year. A team so successful, you might think they signed a deal with the devil (though knowing their mascot, a horse might be more likely). But hey, winning is winning, and the Sooners have been doing a lot of that. So, the burning question is: just how many Big 12 championships have they stashed away in their trophy cabinet?
Let's Buckle Up, We're Going Championship Hunting!
The Big 12 Conference, formed in 1996, is no stranger to gridiron greatness. But when it comes to championship contenders, the Sooners stand out like a bright orange traffic cone in a field of green (sorry, Texas).
The Big Reveal: A Stack of Sooner Victories
QuickTip: Use posts like this as quick references.
Drumroll please... Oklahoma has a whopping 14 Big 12 championships! That's right, 14! That's more championships than some teams have total conference wins. You could practically build a Sooner Schooner out of all those trophies (although that might not be the safest idea).
Here's a quick breakdown of their championship dominance (because sometimes, numbers just don't do justice):
- Early 2000s Dynasty Days: Remember the reign of Bob Stoops? Yeah, those were good times for Oklahoma, racking up championships in 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2007, and 2008.
- Back-to-Back Braggin' Rights: The Sooners silenced the Longhorns (sometimes literally) with back-to-back wins in 2015 and 2016.
- The Baker Mayfield Era: He wasn't just slinging touchdowns, he was slinging championships too! Oklahoma secured titles in 2017, 2018, and 2019 with Mayfield leading the charge (and occasionally spiking the ball a little too enthusiastically).
Tip: Highlight what feels important.

Tip: Be mindful — one idea at a time.
So, Who's the Real Big 12 King?
The numbers speak for themselves. Oklahoma reigns supreme with their impressive collection of championships. But hey, that's just football. There's always next season for Texas (and maybe a new strategy besides hoping Oklahoma forgets how to play).
QuickTip: Slow down if the pace feels too fast.
