The Oklahoma Sooners got back on the winning side of things with their 23-7 win over the Florida Gators on Saturday night in "The Swamp." It was a dominant performance for a team that has been up and down this season.

The Sooners allowed just over 200 yards of offense on defense, and the offense completely controlled the game, winning the time-of-possession battle by 15 minutes.

With three games remaining, the Sooners won't make the College Football Playoff, but still have a chance to finish the season on a high note. Oklahoma will play Ole Miss and Texas A&M at home the next two weeks before finishing the season with a road trip to Columbia to play the Missouri Tigers.

Each week, we look at how ESPN's matchup predictor projects each game on the Oklahoma Sooners' schedule. Here's how ESPN Analytics projects the Oklahoma Sooners to fare over the remainder of the 2026 season.

Can Oklahoma Finish Strong?

The computers loved the Oklahoma Sooners win over Florida, giving OU a big jump in probability points in each of their remaining matchups. Still, the computers are projecting a third 6-6 finish in five years for Brent Venables. But if the offense can play a similar game and the defense holds up, they'll have a shot to finish better than .500 in the regular season.
