GRAPEVINE, Texas — The main names that lifted the Sooners into the College Football Playoff yet again are well-known across Oklahoma.
Lincoln Riley. Jalen Hurts. Kenneth Murray. Kennedy Brooks. And on down the roster.
But there are the others.
Brandon Aiyuk. Anders Carlson. Israel Mukuamu. Arryn Siposs.
Those names aren’t known in every household from Guymon to Broken Bow.
But they each played big roles in getting the Sooners where they are — in the CFP where they’ll play top-ranked LSU in the Peach Bowl at 3 p.m. Dec. 28 in Atlanta.
Plenty of fans know Rob Mullens from his role as the CFP chairman, but he had a big role in determining the Sooners fate, too, apart from presiding over meetings that ended with OU being the No.
