Rattler in a position to debut
For more than three seasons, Oklahoma has boasted two Heisman Trophy winners (Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray) and a finalist (Jalen Hurts) downtown. The torch has now passed to Spencer Rattler, who wore a red blouse while playing sparingly last year.
Between this stunning trfinish and its 5-star turnover at the end of high school, Rattler faces a mountain of expectations. In the 2020 Heisman race, DraftKings named him clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence’s contfinisher.
Rattler says he’s in a position to face the challenge.
“I’m not going to run away from expectations or this and that,” he said, through Bob Przythroughlo of SoonerScoop. training equipment. What we’re doing now is the first game, and we’re going to move on from there. “
This casting begins with Lincoln Riley.
Offensive coordinator in 2015-16 and head coach since 2017, Riley oversaw part of a decade of excellence. The Sooners ranked 13th nationally in game-consistent yards in 2015, at the time in 2016 and first in more than 3 seasons.
While it’s fair to expect a deep rotation at the catcher, Rattler’s main differential is Charleston Rambo, who finished 43 passes for 743 yards and five touchdowns last season. Other pass receivers to consider include Theo Wease, Theo Howard, Trejan Bridges, Obi Obialo, Drake Stoops, Marvin Mims and H-backs Brayden Willis and Austin Stogner.
But now is the time to turn the prospective into production.
Rattler played three games last year, completing 7 of 11 attempts for 81 yards and a touchdown.
“It turns out to have a lot of confidence, no matter what scenario you’re in, which I think is essential for anyone in this position,” Riley said, through Przythroughlo. “I think his self-confidence and self-confidence,” and his peers, I think that’s what I’d say is the most vital thing for him right now. “
Rattler and the Sooners begin the season with a very likely victory over the state of Missouri: DraftKings has Oklahoma as the 44. 5-point favorite.
