Houston football took on the No. 15 ranked Oklahoma Sooners on Saturday, Sept. 7 at Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium.

Following the major upset loss against UNLV, Houston looked to bounce back against an impressive Sooner team.

UH came out swinging by forcing a three-and-out on their first defensive stand.

Houston’s junior wide receiver Mekhi Mews muffed the punt, and the Sooners recovered the fumble on Houston’s ten-yard yard line.

With 12:59 left in the first, OU star sophomore quarterback Jackson Arnold threw a strike to junior wide receiver Brenen Thompson for the first score of the game.
