The Great Oklahoma Bowl Mystery: Where in the Heck Are the Sooners Playing?
So, you're a die-hard Oklahoma Sooners fan. You bleed crimson and cream, your house is basically a shrine to Baker Mayfield, and you practically live for bowl season. But this year, things are a little...fuzzy. What bowl game are the Sooners even in? Buckle up, because this is where things get interesting.
Hold on a Sec, Didn't They Just Play in a Bowl Game?
Yup! You'd be right. The Sooners wrapped up their Big 12 run with a bang in the Alamo Bowl back in December. Spoiler alert: Arizona pulled off a major upset, leaving Sooner fans with a bittersweet taste. But hey, at least they went out with a fight, right?
So, They're Out of Bowls for Good, Then?
QuickTip: Every section builds on the last.
Not quite, my friend. Here's the kicker: The Sooners are officially members of the SEC as of July 1st, 2024. That means a whole new conference, a whole new set of rivals, and most importantly, a whole new bowl game selection process!
The Verdict: Patience is a Virtue (Especially for Sooner Fans)
As of today, July 20th, the college football world is still waiting with bated breath to see where the Sooners will land. Will they snag a coveted spot in the College Football Playoff (fingers crossed!) or battle it out in a classic SEC showdown like the Sugar Bowl or the Georgia Bulldogs Classic (because, well, Georgia)? Only time will tell!
QuickTip: Skip distractions — focus on the words.
In the meantime, Sooner fans can keep themselves entertained by:
 |
- Debating dream bowl matchups on endless internet forums.
- Stocking up on crimson and cream for their new SEC rivals (friendly competition is a must!)
- Rewatching highlights of Baker Mayfield's Heisman year. A classic never goes out of style.
