According to NCAA statistics, Oklahoma played the toughest schedule in college football last season. That factor helped push the Sooners ahead of Texas and into the Big 12 and national title games. In 2009, OU's schedule looks harder. Today the Tulsa World analyzes the Sooners' 2009 schedule.

Conference schedule: One conference game, as usual, stands above the rest: an Oct. 17 date with Texas in the Cotton Bowl. But another, at scrappy Kansas, is cause for concern. Two more — at Nebraska and at Texas Tech — come with both question marks and caution signs (historically, both teams are tricky-good at home). The Sooners' home schedule of Baylor, Kansas State and Texas A&M is easy, but the Sooners close with consensus Top 10 Oklahoma State.

Nonconference schedule: Computers (and a handful of humans) appreciated OU's challenging nonconference slate last year, helped most by surprising Cincinnati and TCU. This year, it's mid-major powers like Tulsa and BYU that could give the Sooners a significant lift. Both were 10-game winners last season. If OU can have a triumphant return to Miami — this time against the Hurricanes in what is expected to be a snake-pit atmosphere — another BCS date is possible.

Toughest test: With an untested offensive line, it might be the opener against BYU in Arlington. Or it might be that unit's first road test against a fearsome Miami defense. Ultimately, the Sooners' most difficult game again figures to be Texas. UT rallied for a 45-35 win last year, and has many of those players back. Colt McCoy lost the Big 12 and the Heisman to Sam Bradford, so he'll likely be at his best.

Upset alert: Don't look past BYU. The Cougars have a talented three-year starter at QB and a punishing running game. But the real threat comes at Kansas, where Todd Reesing — an even more talented three-year starter — and his high-powered receiving corps can't wait to get another shot at the Sooners. Reesing threw for 342 yards in Norman last year (269 to Dezmon Briscoe). It's a vastly different team, but remember OU's road dud at Colorado in 2007?
