    The 1895 Oklahoma Sooners football team represented University of Oklahoma as an independent during the 1895 college football season and was its first football team ever fielded by the school.[1][2] The team completed its inaugural season with a 0–1 record. The Sooners played their first football game in history against a team from Oklahoma City High School and lost by a final score of 34–0.[1][2] This was the program's only season under the guidance of head coach John A. Harts, who later left the school to become a gold prospector.[2]
