For all but one week of the college softball season, the Oklahoma softball team has been ranked No. 1 in the country.
And that is the daunting challenge the No. 3 Florida State Seminoles face in going up against the Sooners in the 2023 Women’s College World Series championship series in Oklahoma City.
The one week the Sooners dropped out of the No. 1 spot, they regained the top spot the very next week after dismantling then-No. 1 UCLA by a count of 14-0 in five innings. Oklahoma hasn’t looked back since. One week before blowing out UCLA, the Sooners lost by one run to Baylor in a nonconference tournament game.
