In four seasons as the Oklahoma football coach, Lincoln Riley has won 45 games and lost just eight times.
Three of those eight losses were in the semifinal round of the College Football Playoff, and all three were to teams from the Southeastern Conference.
The other five Oklahoma losses during Riley’s time as head coach were against Big 12 opponents, and four of the five came against just two teams.
