College football week is in full swing! Some teams made remarkable plays, while some struggled to keep up. However, one game gave the laughing medicine to all the on-lookers. That is not to say the fans of Oklahoma Sooners were happy after seeing the funniest and probably the most flawed interception throw. After seeing this, the netizens did not hold back. They shot their jokes like cannonballs.

The Sooners fans soared high in the sky before the matchup against the Texas Longhorns. But as soon as the game started, the Sooners fans were in no position to utter a word.
The Longhorns destroyed OU with a score of 49-0. The team is looking like the biggest flop of the season. Five Oklahoma players combined to complete just 17 passes for 39 yards and two interceptions while quarterback Dillon Gabriel was sidelined because of injury.
The 49-point margin of defeat was by far the largest for the Sooners in the Red River Rivalry, surpassing losses by 33 points in 1941 and 2005. It also ranks as the program’s most devastating defeat overall since falling to Nebraska by 62 points in 1997. Oklahoma’s first shutout since 1998 ended an FBS-best run of 167 games, including at least one offensive score.
NFL Twitter launched at the Oklahoma Sooners
Eric Gray, a running back, threw an interception in Wildcat formation. And it did not go as planned. Although the jump shot was great (so great that if he kept up, NBA will probably offer a deal to him), it just did not work out.

One of the season’s worst play calls might be this one. The call is for a jump pass from a running back, and it is a Wildcat play at the 20-yard line. Fans looked visibly disappointed in the stadium. But let’s see how the fans behind their keyboards reacted.
A user tweeted this. It is common to hail ‘Kobe!’ after missing a shot because the legendary NBA hooper missed a total of 14,481 in his entire career.
“Kobe!”

Another user used an NBA meme, but this features a little kid who falls down. Fans can at least utter an ‘aw!’ to this.

A commenter who felt terrible for the OU fans but made a joke simultaneously.
Those OU fans drove their homes to Dallas to watch that crap

A user suggested Gray retire already!
That wrist flick follow-through to interception combo…
Time to hang up the cleats kid

A user did not approve of the play call the team made.
That's a terrible play call, ESPECIALLY on 1st down. This is a goalline or short yardage play, to get the LBers to fully commit to stopping the run.

A user compared the OU athletes to Patrick Mahomes.
When your trying to be Patrick mahomes but you suck

A user thought a high school team played better than the Sooners.
I watched a high school team play last night that was better than Oklahoma’s offense today.

There is 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter, and I’m still not sure who is actually playing quarterback for Oklahoma. These are games that get Offensive Coordinators fired.

Pretty sure I tried that same play on the playground in second grade. Didn’t work then either.
