Brent Venables getting torched as Oklahoma exposed as biggest fraud in college football
Oklahoma entered last Saturday’s game against Kansas State ranked No. 6 in the country and clearly in the College Football Playoff conversation.
The Sooners, however, lost 41-34 to the Wildcats.
Their attempt to bounce back from the upset loss today is going even worse, as Oklahoma finds itself trailing TCU at the half, 41-17.
That’s 82 points allowed by the Sooners in the last 6 quarters they’ve played, which is not a good look for 1st-year head coach Brent Venables, who’s long been regarded as one of the top defensive minds in college football.
Not surprisingly given how his team has played and the struggles that it has had against a couple of modest opponents, Venables has found himself the subject of significant social media criticism:
