That was the era of the pre-bowl titles. Oklahoma had already won it.
Not the week that UK lost to Tennessee. Oklahoma was awarded the title the following week. It wasn't unheard of for a team to jump from #3 to #1 after a big win. Had Kentucky won over a top 10 Tennessee team, they very well could have lept over Idle Army and Oklahoma.

MAYBE.
Even so, this Oklahoma team had gone undefeated the year before and was on a 31 game winning streak (and not having won it the previous year, finishing #2 to ND). I doubt the voters would have leap frogged them, even with a UK win over UT.
