We continue our three-part series taking a “Who Might Win and Why” look at the Sooners’ 2015  football schedule with Part II in the series, a preview of the October schedule and the beginning of conference play.

October 2014 was the beginning of the Sooners’ slide into a disastrous 2014 season (disastrous at least by Stoops-era Sooner standards). As the 2015 football season looms ever closer, the Sooner Nation is hoping the Crimson and Cream can turn their fortunes around in 2015 and get back to competing for a Big 12 title and more. That quest will commence in October.

Let the prognostication begin!
