  09/25/21 - Casey Thompson, rSr/2025, Oklahoma, 6-0, 205 (DS#56 QB) + More +

  Casey Thompson threw five touchdowns and ran for another as Texas continued its offensive explosion since naming him the starting quarterback with a 70-35 rout of Texas Tech on Saturday. With Thompson at the controls of the offense, the Longhorns have scored more than 40 points in the first half in consecutive games while mixing Thompson's ever-expanding role as a passer with a powerful running game. Thompson was 18-of-23 passing for 303 yards and ran for a score in the first half. Hudson Card started the first two games for Texas (3-1, 1-0 Big 12), but was replaced by Thompson after the Longhorns struggled badly in a road loss at Arkansas. Texas scored on all five of its possessions in the first half against Texas Tech and added a 27-year interception return by Josh Thompson.

Three of Casey Thompson's touchdown throws went to freshman Xavier Worthy, including a 23-yard touch pass into end zone coverage, and a 62-yard score when Worthy broke two tackles and sprinted away from two defenders. Texas scored 70 points for the first time since beating Colorado 70-3 in the 2005 Big 12 championship game. Bijan Robinson ran for 137 yards and scored Texas' first touchdown. Roschon Johnson added two rushing touchdowns for the Longhorns. Texas Tech quarterback Henry Colombi passed for 324 yards and three touchdowns for Texas Tech (3-1, 0-1) after coming on for injured started Tyler Shough in the second quarter. - Texas/AP College Football

  09/06/21 - Reggie Pearson, rSr/2024, Oklahoma, 5-10, 201 (DS#57 SS) + More +

  SEPT 6 BIG 12 NEWCOMER OF THE WEEK: Reggie Pearson Jr., Texas Tech, DB, Jr.,...Pearson had a memorable debut as a Red Raider with an interception, a forced fumble and eight tackles in Texas Tech's come-from-behind victory over Houston to earn Newcomer of the Week. The junior DB picked off the first of four TTU interceptions on the night as the Red Raiders share the FBS high for interceptions through the first week of the regular season. Pearson's impact was felt throughout the field, though, as he was part of a Red Raider defense that limited Houston to only 251 yards of total offense. The strong defensive performance helped the Red Raiders overcome a 21-7 halftime deficit with 31 unanswered points in the second half. It marked the first time the Red Raiders had blanked an opponent over the final 30 minutes since topping Oklahoma State in the 2018 Big 12 opener. - Big 12 Football

  SEPT 6 BIG 12 SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Gabe Brkic, Oklahoma, K, Jr.,...Special Teams Player of the Week Gabe Brkic tied an FBS record with his three field goal makes of at least 50 yards (51, 56 and 55) in Oklahoma's 40-35 win over Tulane. No Sooner had ever made more than one 50-plus-yard field goal in a game. Brkic also made a 26-yarder and finished the day 4-for-5, tying a school record for makes in a game (11th time in school history and third time by Brkic). The redshirt junior's 56-yarder to end the first half tied as the third-longest in school history and was the longest since 1977. His 51- and 56-yarders stand as the longest made field goals in a season opener in program history. Brkic was also 4-for-4 on PAT attempts against Tulane. - Big 12 Football

  08/29/21 - Michael Woods II, Sr/2022, Oklahoma, 6-2, 203 (DS#60 WR) + More +

  Marvin Mims is projected to be the team's number one receiver, but Woods could become a favorite target for Spencer Rattler. The 6-foot-1 receiver landed in Norman for his senior season after finishing as the second-leading receiver for Arkansas last season, finishing with 32 catches and five touchdowns. Woods brings height and explosiveness to a Sooners' receiving core that needed it at times last season. Rattler said the pair has been developing chemistry throughout fall camp. "He's a tall, explosive receiver on the outside for us. He'll go up and get the ball," Rattler said. "He's a mismatch, I feel like, at all times. He's done a great job of that throughout camp...Still getting that chemistry down, still working, but it's getting better and better." - Norman Transcript

  08/29/21 - Eric Gray, Sr/2023, Oklahoma, 5-10, 205 (DS#13 RB) + More +

  Before fall camp, Gray had already positioned himself at the top of the backfield depth chart. The former Tennessee running back and Kennedy Brooks were already expected to split ball-handling dues. But Marcus Major's academic ineligibility and Bradford's departure puts more pressure on Gray to produce right away. His running back coach, DeMarco Murray, said Gray has the mindset needed to do that. "He has a great mindset about him, a great work ethic and a great demeanor overall," Murray said last week. "Talk about a guy who is a pro. You don't have to say much to him. You don't get him revved up. He takes care of his body, he takes care of his notes, he takes care of his playbook. Mentally, physically and emotionally, he's been everything that you want. "He's been a great asset for this room and this team. You talk about a guy who does it the right way on and off the field, he's high up there." Gray recorded six total touchdowns, 772 rushing yards and 254 receiving yards last season with Tennessee. - Norman Transcript

  08/26/21 - Jalen Redmond, rJr/2023, Oklahoma, 6-2, 291 (DS#17 DT) + More +

  After opting out last season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, big things are expected of Sooners' defensive lineman Jalen Redmond. Redmond said he's become much more comfortable over the last few weeks as OU ramps up in preparation for the Sept. 4 opener at Tulane. "I went through the spring and knocked some rust off. I'm still knocking rust off now," Redmond said. "I'm not the perfect player. I'm still working on it, still trying to get back into it. But I feel like it's doing good. I'm feeling good." In 2019, Redmond played 13 games, with four starts, leading OU with 6 1/2 sacks and finishing third on the team with 11 tackles for loss. "He's getting there," Sooners defensive line coach Calvin Thibodeaux said. "He's making every day count...I think he's really close. Every day he's out there working his butt off. He's adding value and we're happy with where he is right now." - Daily Oklahoman

  08/25/21 - Michael Turk, rSr/2023, Oklahoma, 6-0, 227 (DS#4 P) + More +

  When former Arizona State Sun Devils punter Michael Turk announced he was transferring from the program less than a month away from the season, it came as a shock to most. ASU head coach Herm Edwards joined Arizona Sports' Doug & Wolf on Monday to discuss the 2021 season and mentioned why the former Ray Guy Award semifinalist decided to leave the program for the Oklahoma Sooners. "It had nothing to do with anything but how we treated the COVID situation and what we were going to do going forward," Edwards said. "We had some things in there that he didn't agree with and that was fine. He didn't want to leave but he decided to go somewhere else."

Replacing the boot of Turk won't be an easy task for ASU after he averaged 46.0 yards on 59 punts in 2019, which ranked 11th in the FBS and led the Pac-12. Turk was a two-time First Team All-Pac-12 selection. However, Edwards thinks his team will have no problem replacing Turk at the position. "He'll be fine and we'll be fine," he said. "This kid (Eddie Czaplicki) we brought in is going to be a good player … he can punt and kick but for right now he's just punting." - ArizonaSports.com

  08/25/21 - Jeremiah Hall, rSr/2022, Oklahoma, 6-2, 239 (DS#3 FB) + More +

  Jeremiah Hall has seen a lot during his time at Oklahoma. He was a redshirt freshman on the sidelines when the Sooners lost in heartbreaking fashion to Georgia in 2017. He was on the field more when the team suffered back-to-back playoff losses to Alabama and LSU. And he made his biggest on-the-field impact last season, landing on the All-Big 12 First Team after finishing on the second team the year before. So naturally, his teammates began looking to him this offseason for leadership and guidance. At first, Hall wasn't sure he saw himself in that type of role. "When I think about leadership at OU, I think about guys like Baker Mayfield," Hall said during Big 12 Media Days.

"I think about these big names that have been the face of this program. And I'm just a little ol' halfback, fullback from North Carolina. "So when I thought about being a leader prior to this offseason, I thought about 'How can I live up to that?' I've never done this before." Hall looked to his coach, Lincoln Riley, for help on how best to lead his team. For Hall, he found his niche in pushing his team to be its best, even if that means having difficult conversations. "We talked about my leadership style, and basically what that looks like is making myself uncomfortable," Hall said. "I've never been in this position before, been in a position to lead a team that means so much in the eyes of college football. And for me, after this past season, I knew that I was a leader last year. But this year, I'm like, 'I'm really a leader." - Norman Transcript

  08/24/21 - Michael Turk, rSr/2023, Oklahoma, 6-0, 227 (DS#4 P) + More +

  Reeves Mundschau might still be OU's punter this season. But things got a lot more interesting at the position for the Sooners recently with the addition of Arizona State transfer Michael Turk. "It went from Forks Up to Horns Down," Turk said on a video last week announcing his transfer destination on his YouTube channel, which has more than 15,000 subscribers. The typical deadline for players to transfer and retain eligibility for the upcoming season is July 1, but as a graduate transfer, Turk figures to be eligible to play immediately. Turk seemed destined to be the Sun Devils' starting punter until earlier this month, making the decision to transfer after Arizona State introduced a policy that unvaccinated individuals - including players - couldn't be a part of the traveling party for road games. - Daily Oklahoman

  08/23/21 - Perrion Winfrey, Sr/2022, Oklahoma, 6-4, 290 (DS#4 DT) + More +

  Perrion Winfrey is a big fan of horror movies. So for the Big 12 Championship Game last season - and for individual photos leading into this season - the OU defensive lineman wore thigh pads that showed through a silhouette of a pair of classic horror characters. On the right - Michael Myers from the Halloween franchise. On the left - Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th. It was a frightening addition to an already intimidating look for the 6-foot-4, 292-pound Winfrey. "I love the theme of scary movies," Winfrey said. "Honestly, I feel like any advantage I can have over my opponent is one up and honestly, I feel like my appearance is (intimidating) to people and they fear myself just by appearance. "So I honestly did it just as an appearance thing." Winfrey's game had plenty of bite last year, especially near the end.

But this season, Winfrey hopes to strike much more fear in the hearts of opponents. "He needs to be a dude. He needs to play how he looks," Sooners defensive line coach Calvin Thibodeaux said. "He's a guy who can do it and do it at a high level. We're expecting big things from him. I think if he plays the way he's capable of, he's an NFL guy. That's what we expect from him." Plenty of people expect that from Winfrey, who is a popular pick to be a first-round NFL Draft selection next spring after the improvement he showed last season - when he finished with 19 tackles, six for loss, and three pass breakups. - Daily Oklahoman

  08/21/21 - Andrew Raym, Sr/2024, Oklahoma, 6-4, 314 (DS#12 C) + More +

  With Creed Humphrey departing for the NFL, the center position was one of Oklahoma's biggest question marks coming into this season. Andrew Raym may be the answer. The sophomore received limited backup minutes at guard last season, but he's worked on transitioning to center. All signs point towards Raym leading the Sooners' offensive line this season. The transition from guard to center hasn't been difficult, Raym said. "I don't think there's a lot to it, honestly. It's been a pretty good transition," Raym said last week. "I've really liked it. It hasn't been too difficult. I've taken to the offense quite well. Me and Spencer (Rattler), we have a great connection back there. We both lead the offense. The connection is good. The chemistry on the O-line is great. We're rocking right now." Offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh always knew Raym had the ability.

He was a four-star recruit out of Broken Arrow High School and an Under Armour All-American in 2019. But Bedenbaugh always preaches work ethic, and that's what has impressed him about Raym during fall camp. "What's the mentality that you have every day? Are you complacent, are you lazy, are you content with being just good? Are you going to work to be elite, to be the best? That's what he's done up to this point, and it's showing on the field," Bedenbaugh said. "I think Raym has a lot of the same qualities that Creed had coming in. Probably not as strong as he was coming in, but he's a really smart kid. And that's the most important thing at that position, is being smart." - Norman Transcript

  08/21/21 - Michael Turk, rSr/2023, Oklahoma, 6-0, 227 (DS#4 P) + More +

  Arizona State Sun Devils punter Michael Turk entered the transfer portal less than a month before the football team's season begins and in an Instagram post announced his commitment to the Oklahoma Sooners. Turk, who is a graduate transfer with a year of eligibility remaining, returned to the ASU program in June despite declaring for the NFL Draft, participating in the NFL Scouting Combine, signing with an agent and going undrafted. That's because Turk was granted a waiver from the NCAA, largely on the basis that COVID-19 affected his chances of being drafted due to his inability to be a part of pro days, team workouts and in-person interviews. The Sun Devils have two other punters listed on the roster: Florida State transfer Logan Tyler and freshman Adam Babb. Turk, who will now be a junior, averaged 46.0 yards per punt on 59 punts last season. That ranked 11th in the FBS and led the Pac-12. - Arizona Sports

  Brooks rushed for 1,056 yards and 12 touchdowns as a freshman in 2018. He followed that up by running for 1,011 yards and six touchdowns in 2019. Brooks sat out the 2020 season over COVID-19 concerns but is back now with the second-ranked Sooners and has told reporters that "I'd probably say I'm more explosive than I was a year ago." Brooks is part of a backfield that also includes Tennessee transfer Eric Gray. - AP College Football

  08/19/21 - *Nik Bonitto, rJr/2022, Oklahoma, 6-3, 248 (DS#2 OLB) + More +

  Rush linebacker Nik Bonitto has plenty of personal momentum heading into this season. He's a popular preseason All-America pick and is on the watch list for several major defensive awards. The redshirt junior is surprised by the notoriety, even if it shouldn't be a shock after he was named a Pro Football Focus' first-team All-American and second team by The Associated Press last season. "I feel like even though I did have a good year last year, it wasn't my standard and what I think I can do because I still have a lot to grow on my game," Bonitto said. But though he might not be sure about the national praise, Bonitto is embracing his internal role as one of the leaders on a Sooners defense with plenty of expectations. "It's everything that I've asked for, especially when playing how I did last year, and it's to be expected," Bonitto said. "So I definitely won't shy away from it." - Daily Oklahoman

  08/19/21 - Michael Woods II, Sr/2022, Oklahoma, 6-2, 203 (DS#60 WR) + More +

  It would've been hard to guess that Mike Woods would be in Norman this season. The senior receiver spent his first three seasons with Arkansas and looked poised to stay in Fayetteville for his senior year, playing in the Razorbacks' spring game back in April. But later that month, he announced he was transferring to Oklahoma. "It was just something that was on my mind and I felt it was the best move for my career to just find another opportunity," Woods said on Wednesday. "And as a wide receiver, you look at OU every year putting out these big numbers and every receiver wants to be in an offense like this. He regularly trains with former OU stand out Ceedee Lamb during the offseasons, which opened his eyes to potentially joining the Sooners receiver core. "I look at [Lamb's] career and his three quarterbacks that he played with. It's two Heismans, two first overall picks, Heisman runner-ups, first-rounders," Woods said. "When you look at that, your eyes get big and you're just like, 'man, what would that be like?" "You see what [Lincoln] Riley does with transfers, and what his receivers are doing and also his quarterbacks, so it was a pretty easy decision." - Norman Transcript
