Riley, 38, had been head coach at Oklahoma since 2017, going 55-10 with three Big 12 championships. That includes a 10-2 record this year, but a 37-33 loss to archrival Oklahoma State knocked them out of the conference title chase. Former Sooners coach Bob Stoops will return to the sidelines to coach Oklahoma during their bowl game, wherever that may be.
