That's the title of the article here (http://sportsday.dallasnews.com/college-sports/oklahomasooners/2016/01/04/five-way-early-predictions-oklahomas-2016-football-season)
Here's one of the too early predictions.
4. Jordan Thomas will be Oklahoma's defensive MVP. Losing Sanchez will undoubtedly hurt OU's secondary. The return of soon-to-be junior Jordan Thomas will still give Oklahoma an edge with its pass defense, however. Thomas was arguably better than Sanchez this past year as one of the Big 12's best shutdown cornerbacks. He finished 2015 with five interceptions and 46 tackles. Staying out of trouble will be the key for Thomas. He was suspended for the first quarter of OU's 2015 season opener against Akron and for the entire game against Tulsa for unspecified disciplinary reasons. But next season could be a huge one for the Klein, Texas, native. OU won't be short on facing elite passers in 2016, and Thomas' talent might be the biggest factor in Oklahoma's success.
