The Path to Norman
Jacob Sexton played high school football at Deer Creek, less than an hour north of Norman in Edmond. The Sooners were one of his first offers back in January, 2020. After that offer, Sexton and OU seemed like they were on the path to end up together. Sexton’s offer sheet really blew up in the spring of 2020, with programs like Alabama, Texas A&M, Texas, Tennessee, and many more vying for the lineman’s commitment. However, the home state school won out in the summer of 2021.

To get to know Jacob Sexton even better, check out James Hales’ interview with him from shortly after his commitment:
Career so Far
Sexton got experience in his first year on campus, playing in 10 games at tackle. While Sooner fans were happy to see him play, it was puzzling to not seem him utilize a redshirt season. He did, however, suffer an injury in the Cheez-It Bowl that forced him out of the game.
In 2023, Sexton played in seven games. He saw time at both guard and tackle in his game, four of which were starts.
Sexton’s 2024 campaign saw him wear a few different hats. He started the first eight games of the season, splitting time between left guard and left tackle, before an injury ended his season.

This Season
Sexton looks primed to start at left tackle this fall in a line hoping for an improved 2025 season. Logan Howland and Michael Fasusi will also factor in at the spot, but the veteran Sexton should be in for a big year leading the offensive line.
