Oklahoma’s Isaiah Thomas trolled Florida after big win
Oklahoma defensive lineman Isaiah Thomas puffed out his chest after his Sooners destroyed Florida in the Cotton Bowl on Wednesday night.
The Sooners beat the Gators 55-20. They intercepted Kyle Trask three times and had Florida playing three different QBs.
Thomas, a junior, boasted after the win with a great comment.

Sooners fans may recall that Florida linebacker James Houston said something similar leading up to the game.
Florida LB James Houston on #Sooners: “Oklahoma is a good matchup but they’re not on our level, they're not SEC, they’re not the Florida Gators."

Thomas clearly remembered it.
Oklahoma and Big 12 fans will love Thomas’ comment. The perception has always been that the SEC is the best conference in college football, so a 1-sided victory for Oklahoma over Florida will help the Big 12’s case.
Oklahoma put up 684 total yards in the game, including 435 on the ground. That will make Florida look bad any way you view it. And it had Lincoln Riley saying his team is a playoff team.
Lincoln Riley: “I’d be surprised if there are four teams in the country better than us right now.” He did say he wasn’t saying #Sooners deserved to be in playoff
