This week, Oklahoma's top NIL collective, 1Oklahoma, announced a major accomplishment regarding their donations.
1Oklahoma reached its $2 million matching gift challenge that was presented by an anonymous donor. In August, a donor agreed to match contributions dollar for dollar up to $1 million through the 2024 season. The Sooners crossed that threshold with three games left to spare on the schedule.
