On Tuesday night, the College Football Playoff Committee unveiled its opening rankings of the 2021 season, and the Oklahoma Sooners (9-0, 6-0) checked in at No. 8. Given how the past nine weeks have played out on the field, it’s a frustrating yet somewhat understandable position to be in for a team that has struggled to win convincingly through the majority of its games. However, three quality opponents remain on the schedule, with the possibility of a marquee rematch in the Big 12 Championship Game. Nevertheless, going forward, the mission for OU couldn’t be more simple: win, and you’re in.
