A lot is riding on the performance of Oklahoma football quarterback Dillon Gabriel this season, and he is ready for the ride.
Gabriel, who is in his second season as the Sooners’ signal caller and third season in offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby’s offense (he played under Lebby for one season at Central Florida), threw for 3,163 yards last season and ran for another 315 yards. The fifth-year senior led the Big 12, averaging 263.6 yards passing and with an efficiency rating 154.4.
Gabriel, who hails from Mililani, Hawaii, on the island O’ahu, played well in his first year at OU.
