Even though I thought #9 should've been the starter all along. But BV gave it to JA for loyalty reasons that could’ve cost us wins. In the end the better player is our QB. Now let's not dump on Arnold because we may need him in some point in the future. The coaches need to bench TE Jake Roberts because they wasted a lot of NIL just to get him only because he formerly played under Littrell. This seems very familiar like when the staff wasted time and effort bringing back Austin Stogner last season and he did absolutely nothing.

We need to play more Taylor Tatum, Xavier Robinson, Kaden Helms, Danny Okoye, PJ, David Stone and Jacobe Johnson (WR)

I think it’s ridiculous to even talk about how bad this offense is. NO team including Tenn, TexAss, or Bama can succeed with the egregious injuries they have sustained. Get healthy and they will be a threat to ANY team in the nation. The D will be even better as well simply because they won’t be on the field forever

Gearing up for Tennessee at the Cotton Bowl? That’s new…

As a team, if you look Quarter by Quarter of the Auburn Game like a boxing match. OU won the 1st Quarter. Auburn won the 2nd Quarter with a knockdown. OU won the 3rd Quarter. OU basically did what Auburn did in the 2nd Quarter but in the 4th Quarter+3 Points. If this was boxing, OU either gets a TKO in the 4th or a straight up knockout. By Decision, OU won 3 of 4 rounds. Auburn only had one good Quarter that paid off for them. Like a defensive boxer, OU didn't get a lot of headshots, but got a few body blows and a good upper cut to win the game. Just look at the scoring quarter by quarter and you'll agree. It's not surprising they won if you look at it that way.

The offensive line looks better to my untrained eye. I think the offense is improving, stay with the receivers we have now. Use the tight ends more. Running game needs to try the edges a little more. Running up the middle with a cloud of dust for no yardage isnt productive. Slow down a little. Get some 1st downs so the defense isn't constantly on the field.

I wanna see Davon Mitchell, he can't be any worse than our current TEs plus he has a repoire with Hawk

[druedrymon]

Parker I have a question, You guys have said that DG was encouraged to leave because of JA but recently BV said that DG actually was the one who initiated it how do those two coinside with each other

Offense F+ Defense A- special teams B+

[charlestarver]

I no it most likely won't happen unless we get healthy quick but it would be nice to see Oklahoma complete the regular season with only 2 losses

[Libzarsupergae]

Peyton Bowen returns a punt vs texas, eli gets an int.

[robertwalegir]

Offense incomplete, you can’t lose the amount of players at wide receiver, offensive linemen we don’t know how banged up the running backs have been it’s all a big secret soft tissue!!!

Defense you must remember the teams they faced except for temple or not bad teams, and those players are on scholarship to one of the Ten best defenses in the nation!!!

Special teams for kicking has been very good. You’re gonna miss a kick now and then the glaring problem. No punt returns of value. !!!

Parker i think your wrong from not thinking we need to switch away from barnes. Only good game i seen him have is when i was at the cheese it.bowland i still think sawchuck had more plays them him in that game but all he does is run into the back of our lineman.probably why our limeman are getting injured. I think murray must be playing a ass kissing contest or just favors him cause they from ghe same place cause that dude cant be our best back. No way im buying hes our best back. I hope the other guys dont transfer but seeing this guy run the ball and still getting most the calls through five games i wouldnt blame the rest of the guys if they transfer. Sawchuck should be bitching if he aint no better can i get in a little more so i can go. Run into the back of our lineman

[carlhall]

With our rushing attack being mostly inside zone so far with little success, have to wonder why We don’t use the freshman back Robinson some as he’s a big SEC style back that may have more success with inside zone runs. Don’t see how he could be worse unless coaches concerned with fumbles.

[DedHedRy]

C- -, that’s based on the assumption they are going to play better now with MH so I’m going with a C-! WTF?😂

[JB-sctg]

Where as Makari Vickers been? I saw him suited up at Auburn, but I don't think he's played a single snap. Same for Jayden Rowe.

[seanb.]

What is the news on Dasan McCollough? Will he play again this season? Thought he would only be out like 1 month.

[arletonjohnson]

Offense: If we are truly being honest and talking about through the first five games, by all norms the rankings suggest it is a straight F plus at best. I would’ve said this about the defenses that we filled it as well. A D grade would constitute anywhere from 75 to 100th. Anything over 100 is an absolute fail. At this point, I would absolutely love to have a C- to C+ for the next few games. due to the injuries and incomplete is also acceptable. The defense due to the offensive of struggles would get a B+ or A- in my opinion. We’ve had a couple of national players and conference of the week. And a few other players sans Bowman and other players sans Bowman and Stuttsman might make their way to the top of the conference ranking. Eli a d Jj could be Fresh AA at Season ends as well. If we can finish out at eight and four, we will be in great shape heading into 2025 with all the underclassmen being forced into playing time and the injured players coming back

[Im_Old_Gregg]

I dont know how anyone could ask more out of the defense considering the amount of snaps they've had to defend

[tsg_boomer]

Wow. Neither of you mentioned a reciever. My 3 guys would be Deion Burks, Taylor Tatum and ely bowen. Enjoy yall show. BOOMER
