Why Oklahoma’s Dillon Gabriel, Jeff Lebby Are Where They’re Meant to Be as They Ponder Their UCF Days
The Sooners’ quarterback and offensive coordinator were given a chance at Central Florida, and now they’ll face the Knights in Norman for a Big 12 game this Saturday.

NORMAN — In 2018, Dillon Gabriel just wanted a shot at playing quarterback somewhere, while Jeff Lebby just wanted back in the game.

Now Oklahoma’s senior quarterback and offensive coordinator are preparing to play a game against their old program — against the school that gave them a chance.

No. 6-ranked OU (6-0) comes off an open date this week when the Sooners host UCF (3-3) at 11 a.m. Saturday.
