Lincoln Riley had just stepped off the plane in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Sunday evening and gave a shout-out to OU’s long history with the Orange Bowl.
“We’re excited to be here,” Riley said, referring to the Orange Bowl semifinal against Alabama on Saturday. “You know, there is a long history of Oklahoma in this bowl game. This is like our second home. It’s great to be here.”
But is Miami like a second home to the Sooners? The Sooners have lost four straight games in Hard Rock Stadium, which is what they’re calling the Dolphins’ home field these days.
