If it’s not how you start but how you finish that matters most, Oklahoma football is failing this season.

The Sooners are 2-2 through four games and could easily be 4-0 if not for their inability to finish off games. In back-to-back losses to Kansas State and Iowa State, Oklahoma squandered double-digit first-half leads and were outscored in the second half by a combined margin of 55-27.
