NORMAN, Okla. (AP) – It’s a familiar scene for Oklahoma fans eagerly awaiting the program’s eighth national championship.
Just as the Sooners start getting hyped as a favorite to win the title, a key player goes down with an injury before the season even begins.
It happened two years ago when Oklahoma was loaded with talent after a loss in the BCS championship game. It happened this week when three-year starter Travis Lewis felt a pop in his left big toe.
The Sooners still hope to break the SEC’s five-year stranglehold on the national championship behind quarterback Landry Jones, receiver Ryan Broyles and a defense with seven returning starters.
