Ranking the top-ten teams in the 127-year history of the Oklahoma football is no easy task, especially considering that the program has won seven national titles and delivered seven Heisman Trophy winners as one of college football’s elite blue bloods.

And you also have to consider that there have been many other great Sooner teams that didn’t win it all.

Let’s start with a couple of disclaimers. Championships take the cake. This means that all of the Oklahoma teams that captured college football’s most coveted prize will be ranked ahead of those who didn’t. Secondly, the sport of football has changed so much over 127 years that it’s impossible to know if the Wishbone offenses of the previous century would be able to hang with the spread offenses of the last decade and a half.

So, without further ado, here are the top-ten teams in OU Football history.
