MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Oklahoma faces an uphill battle to return to the College Football Playoff and that path likely includes a spate of upsets in other ‘Power 5’ conferences. After back-to-back losses against Kansas State and Iowa State to open up Big 12 play, the Sooners have won five in a row and throughly dominated Oklahoma State, 41-13 Saturday night in Norman.
“They definitely are playing their best football here in the last month,” said WVU head coach Neal Brown.
