"My ask is to stick with us through the growing pains and, support our guys and efforts and our recruiting efforts, because the results are going to come," said Freeze. "We're not that far off. And I hope the '25 recruiting class sees that and knows they have a chance to come in and immediately impact this program, just like the '24 class is currently doing."

"Building does take time," he continued. "I think you all are aware of what we inherited."

Last week, Oklahoma's Kip Lewis returned an interception 61 yards for the game-winning touchdown, rallying from an 11-point fourth-quarter deficit to take down the Tigers.
