Auburn cheerleader knocks down Oklahoma player running onto field while performing stunts

Saturday afternoon at Oklahoma didn’t get off to the best start, but neither did the Auburn cheerleading program.

The 21st-ranked Sooners visit the Tigers for an SEC matchup on Saturday, and a serious collision occurred well before the game began.

As the Sooners took the field Saturday, an Auburn cheerleader decided it was a good time to do some stunts.

The cheerleader backhanded through the Sooners’ line and somehow managed to avoid almost everyone…almost.

Near the 10-yard line, the cheerleader hit defensive back Makari Vickers.

Both Vickers and the cheerleader quickly stood up.

Vickers is in his second collegiate season and played eight games for Oklahoma in the Big 12 last year. He missed four contests due to injury.

The sophomore was one of the top 125 recruits in the country coming out of high school and was even ranked 81st in the country by Rivals.

The Sooners got on the field first when quarterback Michael Hawkins made a 48-yard rush to the house. However, Auburn responded with two touchdowns in the second quarter.

Payton Thorne hit KeAndre Lambert-Smith for a 31-yard touchdown to tie the game. And after forcing a third straight punt at Oklahoma, Thorne threw another long touchdown, this time for 48 yards to Malcolm Simmons.

The unranked Tigers led Oklahoma 14-7 at halftime. Auburn had forced five straight punts after Oklahoma’s touchdown.

The Sooners are coming off a home loss to Tennessee, now ranked fifth in the country. They will need a comeback to carry momentum into their match against No. 1 Texas next week.
