Oklahoma-Temple game

OU football moved to No. 11 in this week's AP Poll.

The Sooners shifted two spots from last week but remain the fifth of 11 Southeastern Conference teams in the poll. LSU, Georgia, Texas and Texas A&M are above them, while Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Vanderbilt and Auburn are below. OU has seven Top-25 opponents left on its schedule. 

This comes after the Sooners defeated Temple 42-3 and are set to play Auburn on Saturday.
