Battle of the Blue Bloods: Oklahoma vs. Alabama Preview

Sooner State of Mind: “Crimson Collision in Tuscaloosa”

What’s up, Sooner Nation! Casey Mallon here, and you are now in a Sooner State of Mind! After a much-needed bye week, Oklahoma heads to Tuscaloosa for a massive showdown with the Alabama Crimson Tide — a clash of college football blue bloods with College Football Playoff stakes on the line. The Sooners sit at No. 11 and have history on their side, winning four of the last five against Bama, including last year’s dominant 24-3 win in Norman.

In this episode, Casey breaks down the Sooners’ path to the playoff, what Brent Venables and Ben Arbuckle need to dial up to keep the offense humming, and how OU’s defense can handle the Tide’s physicality in Bryant-Denny. Plus, we look at the newly released playoff schedule, key matchups across the SEC, and what this weekend means for the national picture.
