After the almost season opener against Air Force in Colorado Springs, Colorado, last weekend that was canceled due to the government shutdown, the Sooners look to propel once more into their championship defending season.
This time, the Sooners will be traveling north to compete with the Michigan. While certainly a change in direction of travel for the Sooners, the team will still have the mindset of moving forward with the NCAA's longest current win streak of 81 and defending their championship.
Michigan held their annual Maize and Blue meet — similar to Oklahoma's spring football game but for gymnastics — on Dec. 9 where Maize won 399.350-388.350. Michigan has great talent in junior Anthony McCallum and freshman Jacob Moore, but going against the Olympian powered machine that is the Sooners may prove difficult to keep up with.
Oklahoma will be looking for stars like junior Yul Moldauer to put on big performances, as well as see what freshman Gage Dyer can do in his first NCAA gymnastics meet.
If the Sooners want to defend their crown, they'll have to start in Ann Arbor, Michigan, at 1:00 p.m. CT Saturday.
