At one point in the third quarter, it looked like the Oklahoma Sooners were going to run away from the Arizona Wildcats in their Alamo Bowl matchup. But the turnover bug that hurt the Sooners in the first quarter, reared its ugly head toward the end of the third.
Instead of potentially going up 31-13 late in the third, the Sooners led by just three. And after the Wildcats defensive touchdown, it seemed like the wheels fell off for the Sooners offense.
It was a tough way to end the season, but there were some really promising moments mixed in that give us something to look forward to moving forward.
So how did social media react to the Sooners 38-24 loss? Always hard after a loss, but let’s take a look at some reactions to the overall performance, Jackson Arnold’s first start, and Nic Anderson and Drake Stoops’ big days.
Showed some good stuff
Jackson Arnold played like an insanely talented but yet still a true freshman tonight. And he played well enough to win this game. Sucks to end his first game this way, but if you’re writing him off, you’re an idiot

Can’t turn it over like OU did
25 unanswered points is genuinely wild.
Crazy the way football works.
One minute you think you’re about to go up 31-13 the next you lose 38-24.
Surge of momentum like I haven’t seen.
6 turnovers is the story.
Boomer and goodnight

Offense did defense no favors
Defense held on long…
