Oklahoma football has an embarrassment of riches at the quarterback position with some Sooners fans ready to bench Spencer Rattler in favor of Caleb Williams.
Spencer Rattler is the Heisman favorite and a potential No. 1 overall pick in the NFL Draft, but that hasnāt stopped some Oklahoma football fans from wanting him benched in favor of freshman Caleb Williams.
No, seriously, they want the Heisman favorite and best quarterback in the nation to take a seat for a freshman.
As talented as Rattler is, he threw an interception on the second pass of the game and that has Oklahoma fans thinking he didnāt learn anything after an up-and-down 2020 season that saw him make some questionable throws that led to too many interceptions.
Those fans may have been burned and want to see the future get his chance today.
Williams, the five-star recruit who may be a better prospect at this stage of his career than Rattler, did score a touchdown on his first play.
Perhaps Lincoln Riley uses Williams in the red zone like Urban Meyer did with Tim Tebow in his freshman year, but benching Rattler for Williams like these fans suggest could be a big mistake.

This is just the nature of social media with knee-jerk reactions but Riley doesnāt listen to Twitter coaches, and thatās a good thing, because heād be fired if he did.
