In this episode of the Sooner Nation Podcast, we’re diving into a massive week across Oklahoma athletics and beyond — and nothing is off the table. We start with the Week 13 SEC Power Rankings, breaking down the league from No. 16 to No. 1 and explaining why Oklahoma’s win in Tuscaloosa was more than a victory — it was a statement that the Sooners belong among the SEC elite.

Then we shift over to the hardwood, where Oklahoma basketball’s 105–99 loss to Nebraska exposed something deeper than a bad defensive night — it exposed an identity issue. We unpack why scoring 99 points wasn’t enough and why defense, not offense, will ultimately define the Sooners’ season.

From there, we jump to the NBA, breaking down how the Oklahoma City Thunder have developed a new superpower: ending games before they start. With record-breaking first quarters, killer tempo, and a system that amplifies every player, the Thunder may have just found the NBA’s most dangerous early-game formula.

And finally, we close by recapping the Sooners’ program-defining win at Alabama, looking at the turnovers, momentum swings, and defensive stops that put Oklahoma firmly in the SEC’s top tier — and squarely in the College Football Playoff conversation.

Four sports. One state. One episode. Let’s go.
