Where do the Oklahoma Sooners land in USA TODAY Sports' 1-136 rankings?
The 2025 college football season will kick off this week in week zero. The Oklahoma Sooners still have a week and a half before their season opener against Illinois State. Oklahoma enters the season a little under the radar in the US LBM Coaches Poll, landing just outside the top 25, but as the top vote getter among others receiving votes. The Sooners are looking for a bounce-back season in 2025 after going 6-7 a year ago. The pieces are in place for the Sooners' offense to be better than it was, and the defense should continue trending to be among the best in college football. Many believe things will be different after an offseason of turnover on the offensive side of the ball, which brought in offensive coordinator Ben Arbuckle, quarterback John Mateer, and running back Jaydn Ott. As every team has a clean slate for one more week, USA TODAY Sports' Paul Myerberg released his preseason 1-136 rankings of every FBS team in college football. The Oklahoma Sooners came in at No. 11. That makes the Sooners the fifth-best team in the SEC on his list, behind only Georgia (No. 2), Texas (No. 4), Alabama (No. 7), and LSU (No. 10). Other SEC teams ranked inside Myerberg's top 25 include Tennessee (No. 16), Ole Miss (No. 17), South Carolina (No. 20), Texas A&M (No. 22), and Florida (No. 25). A total of 10 teams from the SEC were ranked inside Myerberg's top 25 teams. OU's week two opponent, Michigan, checked in at No. 15. Oklahoma will begin the season unranked in the US LBM Coaches Poll, but will start out ranked No. 18 in the Associated Press Poll. The Sooners will kick off their 2025 season at home against Illinois State, out of the FCS, on Saturday, August 30th.

Oklahoma Sooners among CBS Sports most underrated in the SEC
The Oklahoma Sooners have been receiving a lot of love from national and SEC analysts entering the season. Though they were 6-7 a year ago, pundits are projecting an improved season for the Sooners. Oklahoma was right outside the top 25 in the US LBM Coaches Poll, but USA TODAY Sports college football writer Paul Myerburg put OU at No. 11 in his preseason 1-136 rankings for 2025. Myerburg and college football analyst Josh Pate, who had Oklahoma at No. 10 in his preseason JP Poll, are higher on the Sooners than the consensus. There's a lot to like, but for some, Oklahoma still has a lot to prove and the schedule is a daunting slate. In CBS Sports SEC season preview, the Oklahoma Sooners were chosen by Brad Crawford as the most underrated team in the league entering 2025. Oklahoma played much of last season with the chamber half-empty, thanks to mounting injuries and a lack of confidence on both sides of the ball. Brent Venables enters his fourth season season with his back against the wall, but a revamped roster headlined by John Mateer and Jaydn Ott could spark real improvement. The schedule is daunting, and essentially making two coordinator changes is worth watching. But go ahead and buy stock in the Sooners while it's low -- this price won't be around in October. - Crawford, CBS Sports hey're entering the season much healthier than they were a year ago. And that'll matter a lot, especially along the offensive line, where the Sooners started 10 different combinations during the regular season. They're deeper and they're more experienced. That should bode well for offensive coordinator Ben Arbuckle in his first year in Norman. The Oklahoma Sooners were picked no higher than sixth by any of CBS Sports analysts in their predicted order of finish. So they're still flying under the radar a bit despite the buzz surrounding quarterback John Mateer. Finishing seventh would have the Sooners likely well within the top 25 at the end of the season and certainly playing in a bowl game. Though there's optimism about the team, the Sooners are in prove-it mode entering the season. A tough week two matchup will set the stage for what should be a better year in SEC play for an Oklahoma team that went just 2-6 in league play last year. If the offensive line comes together and puts a product on the field that resembles an Oklahoma offensive line, then the Sooners will be really good. The defense is ready to contend. The Sooners have a quarterback who can take them to the College Football Playoff or put them in position to compete for a berth in the SEC title game. Oklahoma has dynamic playmakers at running back and wide receiver. The ingredients are all there for a successful season for the Sooners!
