They’re No. 1 for a reason, folks.
Oklahoma reminded us all why they’re the top-ranked team in the Golfweek/Sagarin men’s team collegiate ranking twice over the last week.
The Sooners first ran away with a win at the inaugural Calusa Cup, shooting 6 under as a squad in the final round to finish as the lone team under par thanks to three players finishing inside the top 10 on the individual leaderboard, led by runner-up Logan McAllister. Jonathan Brightwell finished T-5 at 1 under, followed by Quade Cummins at even-par, T-9.
A few days later at the Aggie Invitational, Oklahoma finished tied with hosts Texas A&M after 54 holes, but lost in a playoff. Garett Reband finished even in fifth place, with Quade Cummins T-6 at 1 over.

“Our guys hung in there all day,” head coach Ryan Hybl said. “We didn’t execute enough good shots at the end of the day to win. I’m glad we had the opportunity for a playoff, even though it didn’t work out for us. It was a valuable experience for sure, and this has been a really nice two-tournament stretch.”
