Oklahoma has an FPI rating at 15.5, which is the same as the Vanderbilt Commodores. The Sooners' path to the College Football Playoff remains, as they have four teams that were ranked coming into Week 9 still on the schedule.

Oklahoma (6-2) managed 342 yards of total offense and 13 downs, well below its season averages after most of the Sooners' production came on a 76-yard catch-and-run from Isaiah Setagna in the first half and Xavier Robinson's 65-yard scamper in the third quarter.

Trinidad Chambliss led the Rebels to a huge road win that puts Mississippi in tremendous shape to reach the playoff.

The No. 8 Ole Miss Rebels, led by quarterback Trinidad Chambliss, face the No. 13 Oklahoma Sooners, led by quarterback John Mateer, on Saturday, Oct. 25, 2025 at Memorial Stadium in Norman, Okla.

Oklahoma general manager Jim Nagy ranks in the top 10 of GM salaries amongst college programs across the country. USA Today assembled the salaries of football general managers across college football, and Nagy’s $750,000 salary in 2025 ranks eighth in the nation.

Week 9 may have lacked the major upsets of previous weeks, but plenty of games played a key role in conference races and the CFP picture.
