Oklahoma Sooners , Win Alamo Bowl, as Coach Stoops Returns.
ESPN reports the Oklahoma Sooners and
Bob Stoops are the victors once again.
The Sooners were dominant in the first half
of this year's Alamo Bowl, propelling them to
a 47-32 victory over the Oregon Ducks.
After the abrupt departure of head coach Lincoln Riley, who recently took a job with USC, the Sooners called on their legendary former coach, Bob Stoops.
Stoops was reportedly in the middle
of a round of golf when he received the call.

It was fun. More than anything, I appreciate the young people, the guys in the program, embraced me, were all-in, and worked hard. , Bob Stoops, interim head coach of Oklahoma Sooners, via ESPN.
Known around campus as "Big Game Bob,"
the victory marked a career total of 191 wins for Stoops.
Stoops is now 10-9 coaching
in NCAA bowl games.
The Sooners hope Stoop's short tenure can
be a bridge into a new era as incoming head coach Brent Venables takes the reigns.
