NORMAN — Losing a game is never easy, but a loss at Oklahoma is different.
"Remember this,” Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley said Tuesday. “Every loss at OU is shocking.”
Riley said former Sooners coach Bob Stoops told him that the other day. Riley added it’s rare for the Sooners to play a game they aren’t favored in; OU was favored by 23.5 points against Kansas State on Saturday, and the upset was so shocking that Wildcats fans stormed the field.
The Sooners have had other big midseason losses in recent years, though, and they’ve come back to make it to the College Football Playoff.
