All of Sooner Nation was pumped about the Oklahoma Sooners’ victory over the Alabama Crimson Tide, including some OU legends from multiple sports.
The No. 11 Sooners took down No. 4 Alabama 23-21 on Saturday in Tuscaloosa. The win not only defied odds and ended the Crimson Tide’s 17-game home winning streak at Bryant-Denny Stadium, which was the longest in the country, but also skyrocketed the Sooners’ chances at making the College Football Playoff with just two regular-season games left at home against Missouri and LSU, respectively.
It was certainly the biggest win of the Brent Venables era, and also one of the greatest wins in OU history, especially if it ultimately propels the Sooners to their first berth in the 12-team playoff and maybe even beyond.
