Temple faces No.16 Oklahoma on Friday, August 30, 2024 (8/30/24) at Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium in Norman, Oklahoma.
Oklahoma wide receiver Nic Anderson runs the ball after catching it in the first half of an NCAA college football game against Oklahoma State Saturday, Nov. 4, 2023, in Stillwater, Okla. The former five-star quarterback opens the season as No. 16 Oklahoma’s starter after waiting behind Dillon Gabriel last season. He will lead the Sooners against Temple on Friday night in his second career start.
Arnold understood the history when he signed. He hopes to someday have a statue at Heisman Park across from Memorial Stadium – an honor previously bestowed upon Oklahoma’s seven Heisman winners, including four quarterbacks. Thompson has passed for 5,338 yards in a career that took him to Texas, Nebraska and Florida Atlantic before he landed where his father, Charles Thompson, played quarterback in the 1980s.
“Mike has shown us a lot of things,” Venables said. “Tremendous playmaker, really focused and locked-in. Fundamentally sound. He’s got a big arm. He’s a quick decision maker. He can improvise and keep his eyes down the field. He can beat you with his legs. As I said, there’s not a route that he can’t excel in.”Drayton resisted naming a starting quarterback between Forrest Brock, Evan Simon and Tyler Douglas.
