One college football analyst says Sooners will be lucky to win half their games in 2024

In Venables first year as the head ball coach at Oklahoma, two seasons ago the Sooners were winning as few as six games for the first time in almost a quarter of a century.

The 2022 Oklahoma team was not a very good team with not a lot of talent at the crucial positions for the team. The Sooners in that season was able to score a very low understandableness of zero, the final score was Texas 49 Sooners 0. The 2024 Sooner team, however, which starts the regular season this year in the brutal SEC is far superior to the 2022 version of OU. But one college football analyst has predicted that this year’s team is at best likely to win half of this year’s 12 regular season games.

The reason being, as it were, because the Sooners are playing in a much stronger conference and with a 2024 schedule that has them playing six SEC teams probable to be ranked in the top-15 in the country.

Oklahoma win total for the coming season is set at 7 by the online betting odd in Las Vegas. 5 games.

JD PicKell, who is an author at the college sports site On3, predicted that the Oklahoma will beat three teams consecutively of their first three games of the nonconference season, but will lose three games in a row to Tennessee, and Auburn and Texas subsequently. PicKell forecasts OU to reclaim form from the three-game losing streak, outright beating South Carolina at home; the following weekend, the Sooners dropped at Ole Miss.

Soon the Sooners will triumph over Maine in home and sixth victory will be achieved, followed by seventh the victory on the road against former conference opponent Missouri, the following two matches will be lost to Alabama at home and to LSU at the end of the regular season.

I also have confidence that the last consideration of forecasting that the 2024 Oklahoma team will triumph in all four nonconference games. Nevertheless, I believe that the Sooners shall triumph over Tennessee in Josh Heupel ’ s homecoming and drop a game to Auburn on the road. I also think that OU will bring it close to home against Alabama and stand a very good chance to beat the Crimson Tide.

That being the case, instead of going 6-6 like PicKell has stated, Oklahoma may actually be 8-4 or even 9-3 come the end of the season.

And that is why all the preseason guessing is irrelevant, useless until the games are on, strictly no chancing it.
