Fans of the Oklahoma Sooners were elated after watching them defeat the Nebraska Cornhuskers 49-14 on September 17.
The Oklahoma Sooners climbed to number six on the AP’s Top 25 entry into Week Three. And they climbed one place after beating Kent State last week, and a surprising Texas A&M loss to the Appalachian State. The Sooners traveled to the road for the first time this season, facing the Nebraska Cornhuskers who fired coach Scott Frost earlier in the week.
New coach for Nebraska? No problem for Oklahoma, as they qualified a 49-14 win over Nebraska and interim coach Mickey Joseph to be a perfect 3-0 this season. The match was initially competitive, reaching a 7-7 tie. However, the Sooners broke up with them soon after and they had a blast.
