The football season, which ended in Lubbock over two months ago, rose from the ashes on Sunday when former Red Raiders quarterback and superstar Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs won Super Bowl LIV.
It wouldn’t surprise me to see Mahomes in the stands at United Supermarkets Arena Tuesday night — probably as a stopover on the way to Disneyland after being named Super Bowl MVP — cheering on his alma mater. Fortunately for Oklahoma, Mahomes won’t be playing in the game, but the Red Raiders have generated plenty of magic of their own this college basketball season.
