Auburn-Oklahoma’s biggest goal came when the Sooners ran onto the field.
A fan captured video of the road team’s entrance to Jordan-Hare Stadium, revealing footage of an Auburn cheerleader unleashing a series of backflips that culminated in a wild kick to the helmet of Oklahoma defensive back Makari Vickers .
There are better ways to start a game, and much worse ways to audition for the next ‘John Wick’ movie. We’ll leave it to Auburn to explain why the cheerleader tried to force his way through the entire Oklahoma roster.
Vickers is a sophomore who saw action in eight games last year as a true freshman, but has not posted a stat line in a game so far this season. He was a four-star recruit and Rivals’ No. 10 cornerback in the country in the Class of 2023.
The goal ultimately became an omen, as Auburn took a 14–7 halftime lead against the No. 21 Sooners, with two long touchdown passes from reinstated starter Payton Thorne.
