100 Days to Football Time in Oklahoma: #47 Gabe Brkic

2019 Season

Brkic was a highly ranked punter and kicker coming into Norman. The Ohio product just barely missed out on being an Under Armour All-American, and chose OU over schools including Air Force, Bowling Green, New Mexico, UMass, and others.

Career so Far

Brkic took a redshirt season in 2018, but thanks to the new rule was able to get some experience as well. He played in the season opener against Florida Atlantic; out of four kickoffs, three were touchbacks. Additionally, he made his only extra-point attempt.

2019 Season

After what feels like a decade (in a good way), Austin Seibert has moved on from Norman. That will leave all kicking responsibilities open this season. TFB reported this spring that Brkic is expected to take over kicking (field goals, extra points, and kickoffs), while sophomore Reeves Mundschau is looking to start at punter. Sooner fans will be cheering for him this season as he takes on the new jobs.
