Worry not, Sooners followers. We’re virtually there. Soccer season is sort of upon us. We received’t have to write down about predictions fot the upcoming season for much longer.
There have been passive-aggressive jabs by way of the media between conferences, realignment information and rumors, and naturally, the teaching carousel. Sufficient is sufficient. What’s going to occur this yr?
Dennis Dodd of CBS Sports activities put out his 22 issues to observe for within the 2022 faculty soccer season, and there are fairly a number of attention-grabbing nuggets in there. Amongst these 22 issues had been his New 12 months’s Six projections.
Dodd has the Sooners making the Cotton Bowl and can face the Houston Cougers. Beneath are Dodd’s full predictions for the New 12 months’s Six video games and the School Soccer Playoff.
Sugar Bowl: Baylor vs. Arkansas
Rose Bowl: USC vs. Michigan State
Cotton Bowl Houston vs. Oklahoma
Orange Bowl: Miami vs. Michigan
Fiesta Bowl semifinal: Ohio State vs. Georgia
Peach Bowl semifinal: Alabama vs. Utah
CFP Nationwide Championship: Alabama over Ohio State
One other Alabama nationwide championship. Yay.
Oklahoma State is noticeably absent, whereas the Sooners and Baylor are each right here.
Utah stepping into the CFP isn’t one thing that the majority faculty soccer followers would anticipate to see, however wanting on the schedule, they’re going to be the higher crew in all however perhaps one or two of their video games. One other Pac-12 title might get the Utes into the CFP for the primary time in class historical past. Sure, I’m conscious USC is on their schedule.
Whereas not touchdown within the playoff might look like a bummer for Oklahoma, attending to a New 12 months’s Six in your first season, maybe proper after profitable the Huge 12, can be a really good begin for Oklahoma in yr considered one of an entire change in route for this system.
