Oklahoma Sooners Football Hot Links: Oklahoma’s College Football Playoff chances, the lack of carries for RBs, and more

Happy Thursday Halloween, friends and fans!

Oklahoma Sooners QB Jalen Hurts was named one of 10 finalists for the 2019 Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award. The annual honor is given to the nation’s top senior or fourth-year quarterback who best exemplifies the prestige of the position on and off the field.

Since the award’s inception back in 1987, the only OU QB to receive the Unitas has been 2003 Heisman Trophy winner Jason White in 2004. If Hurts is able to continue making winning plays and leads the Sooners to a fifth straight Big 12 Championship, he’ll have as good of a chance as anybody to bring home this particular hardware.
