The Oklahoma Sooners fell to No. 21 in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll released on September 13, 2026, following a 17-10 road loss to the Michigan Wolverines. Oklahoma struggled offensively in Ann Arbor, failing to generate 300 total yards and converting only three of 13 third-down attempts. The defeat pushed the team down from its previous ranking of No. 10. Texas moved into the top spot of the poll after a come-from-behind victory against Ohio State. Oklahoma now prepares for a game against New Mexico before facing consecutive matchups against Georgia and in the Red River Showdown.
