Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: He doesn't look like he ever likes running but when
- 0:02Speaker 1: he thinks he can get up get him some extra
- 0:03Speaker 1: yards and he can fall and not get hit he's
- 0:06Speaker 1: been taking it like he takes those that is an
- 0:09Speaker 1: issue gotta be prepared for that stuff man because we're
- 0:14Speaker 1: gonna have a couple more of those coming up gunner
- 0:16Speaker 1: stockton does like to run arch manning does like to
- 0:19Speaker 1: run kenny minchi i haven't looked at his rushing numbers
- 0:23Speaker 1: i don't know about him but i know camario taylor
- 0:25Speaker 1: does Marcel Reed does run. Trinidad Chambliss does run. Like,
- 0:33Speaker 1: if I'm looking at the entire schedule, Coop, I don't
- 0:35Speaker 1: think we play a single quarterback in this conference that
- 0:39Speaker 1: doesn't do, they don't like make design runs for. We're
- 0:42Speaker 1: playing all running quarterbacks this year. And yet and still,
- 0:47Speaker 1: we allowed less than 300 yards in this game, which
- 0:50Speaker 1: I think is still impressive because it's a P14.
- 0:53Speaker 2: I mean, that's what, That's the baseline of all frustration
- 0:57Speaker 2: for me, that the portions where I can really get
- 1:01Speaker 2: over the top at this point is you played like
- 1:05Speaker 2: hot garbage on offense. You had an eh game in defense.
- 1:11Speaker 2: You did a lot of wrong. And you still didn't.
- 1:17Speaker 2: You still gave up, I mean, under 300 yards.
- 1:19Speaker 1: 263. 263.
- 1:19Speaker 2: You had Bryce Underwood. had his 38-yard run to put
- 1:27Speaker 2: him at 87 total yards. So, like, it's, you're right.
- 1:37Speaker 2: No matter what happens, it does not matter if you
- 1:39Speaker 2: are a linebacker or if you are supposed to be
- 1:43Speaker 2: in a run fit and you are not hitting the spot,
- 1:48Speaker 2: you're leaving an open spot, you're overcrowding another spot, and
- 1:53Speaker 2: then you are allowing them to make adjustments based off
- 1:57Speaker 2: of your erratic play. And there was a lot of
- 2:00Speaker 2: erratic play. You still played well enough to get out the, the,
- 2:05Speaker 2: the difference between the, you know, the, the, the, the
- 2:08Speaker 2: one extra second. And then what we did is we
- 2:12Speaker 2: didn't fix it at the end and just keep on pushing.
- 2:15Speaker 2: We failed at the end. And this defense is going
- 2:19Speaker 2: to have to, I mean, listen, Brent Venables is going
- 2:22Speaker 2: to go and he's going to say our defense has
- 2:24Speaker 2: got to play better. I'm not here for that nonsense. Yes,
- 2:28Speaker 2: it needs to play better. 100%. But I'm well past
- 2:32Speaker 2: frustrated on that. I don't want you to go look
- 2:37Speaker 2: at the defense and say, man, if you could have
- 2:40Speaker 2: just held them to nine points, we win that game.
- 2:43Speaker 2: Get out of here. That's not the issue. The defense,
- 2:46Speaker 2: yet again, was just holding on to dear life and
- 2:50Speaker 2: I mean, held them down 10 points. They, you know,
- 2:52Speaker 2: out until John Mateer throws the pick. Defense was doing okay.
- 2:57Speaker 1: Yeah. Their second half turn up was good. Their second
- 2:59Speaker 1: half turn up was good. No, I 100% agree. There's
- 3:01Speaker 1: a lot of missed tackles too.
- 3:03Speaker 2: And yeah, I agree.
- 3:04Speaker 1: A lot of the quarterbacks I mentioned are a little
- 3:06Speaker 1: bit smaller, are a little bit smaller. But Lenore Sellers ain't.
- 3:09Speaker 1: Lenore Sellers is the size of Bryce Underwood, and he's
- 3:12Speaker 1: actually a better player than a better athlete. We held
- 3:16Speaker 1: him in check at his crib last year.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Right?
- 3:20Speaker 1: Like, they actually had their linemen playing last season. Now, granted,
- 3:22Speaker 1: they fired offensive line coach. But we held Lenore Sellers.
- 3:26Speaker 1: Lenore Sellers had more passing yards. He was 17 for 25, 124.
- 3:30Speaker 1: But he rushed for negative nine yards. Like, we held
- 3:33Speaker 1: 14 carries with a 13-yard run. We held him in
- 3:38Speaker 1: check in comparison to... The game plan to me, I
- 3:42Speaker 1: said it. The score that I was expecting out of
- 3:45Speaker 1: this game if Oklahoma was to win was to be
- 3:47Speaker 1: just like the South Carolina game, 26-7, something like this.
- 3:51Speaker 1: That South Carolina game to me was the blueprint now
- 3:54Speaker 1: to beat this team. And the difference is that Michigan's
- 3:57Speaker 1: defense is better than South Carolina's.
- 3:59Speaker 2: Very much.
- 4:00Speaker 1: Very much. But South Carolina still has one of the
- 4:03Speaker 1: best edges in the country. He didn't play most of
- 4:05Speaker 1: that game because I forgot who hit him and it
- 4:07Speaker 1: took him out. I think, was it Kanick? Is Kanick
- 4:12Speaker 1: the one that hit Dylan Stewart? And he basically came
- 4:15Speaker 1: out the game and never came back? No. He started
- 4:18Speaker 1: having back problems? Who was it?
- 4:20Speaker 2: No, it was a tackle. It wasn't Fasusi. No, it
- 4:25Speaker 2: wasn't Fasusi. It was... I.
- 4:33Speaker 1: Can't remember. Who was it?
- 4:37Speaker 2: It doesn't matter.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, anyway, I thought it was funny, but anyway, uh,
- 4:42Speaker 1: point is we've seen big quarterbacks and we've been able
- 4:45Speaker 1: to big running quarterbacks that do power run that we
- 4:48Speaker 1: could go. That game plan should have been around that. Now,
- 4:51Speaker 1: the other thing too, is to remember that Kyle Whittingham
- 4:53Speaker 1: and Brent Venables hung out in 2022 and shared ideas
- 4:57Speaker 1: for several hours. I talked about that in the video
- 5:01Speaker 1: that that's something to think about. They've never played each
- 5:04Speaker 1: other faced against each other. This was their first time
- 5:06Speaker 1: meeting each other. And yeah, Maybe he had an idea early,
- 5:11Speaker 1: but BV adjusted. And you saw it in the second half.
- 5:14Speaker 1: We adjust in the third quarter. Looked like a completely
- 5:16Speaker 1: different team.
- 5:17Speaker 2: It was Derek Simmons on that one. I was thinking
- 5:21Speaker 2: it was a white tackle.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Oh, so it was Simmons. Simmons did hit that boy. And, like,
- 5:27Speaker 1: to me, Beers is your– Mateer likes to throw the
- 5:32Speaker 1: ball across the middle, which is the complete opposite of
- 5:34Speaker 1: how Dylan Gabriel really plays. Mateer loves throwing it across
- 5:37Speaker 1: the middle and he hits dudes across the middle in
- 5:39Speaker 1: a good way. He also overthrows them in the middle,
- 5:42Speaker 1: but he does a really good job of hitting people
- 5:43Speaker 1: in the middle. Like the beers catches were middle and
- 5:48Speaker 1: he just took them and housed them, you know, and was,
- 5:51Speaker 1: and was, and was getting it with them. Challenge here
- 5:55Speaker 1: on this defense is like Boganowski going down. Like I
- 6:02Speaker 1: love Baba Yaga. And I love his tenacity. He gonna
- 6:07Speaker 1: get called for, we gonna get like a targeting every
- 6:10Speaker 1: single game. If he don't go ahead and start wrapping
- 6:13Speaker 1: up instead of just leveling people. Because that's what it is.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Because I'm sitting in the stadium, Coop. I see the play.
- 6:21Speaker 1: Michigan guy's next to me. I see him go in
- 6:24Speaker 1: and I know how he hits. Because he always leans
- 6:26Speaker 1: in shoulder first and he throws the arm. And it's
- 6:29Speaker 1: like he's trying to like force the fumble too. So
- 6:32Speaker 1: just in case, if he can rattle the ball at
- 6:33Speaker 1: the same time, if he hits the ball with his
- 6:35Speaker 1: arm or elbow or something. But you heard the crack.
- 6:38Speaker 2: It was loud.
- 6:40Speaker 1: And you heard people say, like, ooh, wondering if somebody died.
- 6:44Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, look at me. He's like, oh, that's
- 6:46Speaker 1: definitely a target. That's definitely a target. I'm like, nah,
- 6:48Speaker 1: he used his shoulder. He's like, what do you mean?
- 6:50Speaker 1: I'm like, it's Michael Bogonowski. He does it all the time.
- 6:54Speaker 1: The problem is because the cracks are so loud, they
- 6:56Speaker 1: throw a flag every single time. So, of course, they
- 7:00Speaker 1: reviewed it. Decided that it wasn't.
- 7:03Speaker 2: Why?
- 7:04Speaker 1: Because he used the shoulder and hit it with like
- 7:05Speaker 1: a punch. I need you to wrap up, man. Just
- 7:11Speaker 1: so we can stop. Because not all refs are going
- 7:14Speaker 1: to give you that benefit of the doubt. They know you.
- 7:17Speaker 1: They know your hits. They're loud. RP3 does a good
- 7:21Speaker 1: job of wrapping. Right? Like he'll go really low and
- 7:25Speaker 1: hit like the thighs and grab. And they usually fall
- 7:31Speaker 1: because of it. He gonna hurt himself, man. And knowing him,
- 7:36Speaker 1: I saw Jimmy asked if he got a concussion. There's
- 7:38Speaker 1: a possibility he did.
- 7:42Speaker 2: It's... I think that one big issue for this defense
- 7:51Speaker 2: is so many times when you are coming back in
- 7:55Speaker 2: after being as accredited as you were last year, you
- 8:01Speaker 2: feel like you've got to one-up and take it to
- 8:05Speaker 2: the next level. And you just absolutely have to just
- 8:11Speaker 2: do your job. That's it. Brent Venable's defense is about
- 8:14Speaker 2: guys being in the place that they're supposed to be.
- 8:17Speaker 2: And you come through and swinging through, missing tackles, hitting somebody.
- 8:22Speaker 2: These guys aren't going to always go down. You're going
- 8:25Speaker 2: to hit someone. You're going to hurt yourself. They're going
- 8:27Speaker 2: to be stumbling around, and they're going to go. And
- 8:29Speaker 2: I think that that's a big thing that I've seen
- 8:31Speaker 2: through two games so far is– And we should probably
- 8:36Speaker 2: have somewhere to 10 to 12 more, um, tackles for
- 8:40Speaker 2: loss at this point, because if we would just wrap
- 8:43Speaker 2: up between the two games, we'd have several more, but
- 8:45Speaker 2: there's been several times where guys are just coming in.
- 8:48Speaker 2: They're throwing the body around. They're going crazy out of control.
- 8:52Speaker 2: And instead of being in the spots where you can
- 8:53Speaker 2: pull the person down, they sling gate, they get slung
- 8:57Speaker 2: off and then someone goes. And so instead of like a,
- 9:00Speaker 2: three or four yard loss, you have like a, you know,
- 9:03Speaker 2: a run for no gain. And I think that's what
- 9:06Speaker 2: I'm seeing a lot of is guys going through and
- 9:08Speaker 2: trying to, you know, Boganowski, it's his turn, right? He
- 9:11Speaker 2: wants to go in there. He's been known as a
- 9:13Speaker 2: thumper and a headhunter. I promise you this, bro. If
- 9:17Speaker 2: you thump a person every four games, but make your
- 9:22Speaker 2: tackles every game, people are going to love it a
- 9:25Speaker 2: lot more than if you crush dude every single game
- 9:28Speaker 2: and then you also miss three or four tackles. That's
- 9:31Speaker 2: like the Russell Westbrook. You've got to just kind of
- 9:34Speaker 2: live with who he is. Yeah, is he going to
- 9:37Speaker 2: blow a layup on a breakaway? Most likely, but he's
- 9:40Speaker 2: also going to do some crazy stuff. When the crazy
- 9:45Speaker 2: stuff starts happening less and then some of those just very,
- 9:50Speaker 2: especially when you're starting to point fingers, when the routine
- 9:54Speaker 2: all of a sudden is no longer a given, that's
- 9:57Speaker 2: what sets people off.
- 9:59Speaker 1: That is exactly right. what sets people off. We need
- 10:03Speaker 1: more consistency there. And CG4, my dude, people hate throwing
- 10:08Speaker 1: your direction, but they love throwing your direction for two reasons. One,
- 10:12Speaker 1: hate throwing your direction is because you're putting some clamps
- 10:15Speaker 1: on people. They love throwing your direction because they probably
- 10:18Speaker 1: can get a PI out of you. Also, you don't
- 10:21Speaker 1: get interceptions. So when you're locking dudes up or knocking
- 10:26Speaker 1: the ball out from catches, we're not getting an INT
- 10:29Speaker 1: to make quarterbacks really scared of throwing you direct. Like,
- 10:32Speaker 1: I want you to create an island. And I know
- 10:35Speaker 1: you're getting there, but that is the thing that I'm
- 10:38Speaker 1: hoping that Lamar Morgan works closely with you going forward
- 10:41Speaker 1: on is I want you to be an island. So
- 10:43Speaker 1: if they throw it your direction, you go out there
- 10:45Speaker 1: and you pick it. I'll give it to you. That
- 10:47Speaker 1: pass interference that he got? Smart. He bit on a play,
- 10:51Speaker 1: got him, and he recovered and was chasing him. And
- 10:55Speaker 1: he's like, instead of giving you 35, I'm going to
- 10:57Speaker 1: give you 15. I was like, good math. That's good
- 11:03Speaker 1: math and good thinking on your toes. That's what you
- 11:06Speaker 1: should do. Because unfortunately, there's going to be moments that
- 11:10Speaker 1: will get you on bites. Especially playing against good wide receivers.
- 11:12Speaker 1: I know y'all watched Jeremiah Smith on Saturday night. Jeez. It's...
- 11:19Speaker 1: When receivers are good, they're good. But CG4' s got a
- 11:23Speaker 1: chance of being great. He's going to need the turnovers
- 11:26Speaker 1: to go with it, though. The turnovers is what makes
- 11:30Speaker 1: quarterbacks really second-guess going your direction. I mean, they're going
- 11:32Speaker 1: to go your direction. They're going to try you occasionally
- 11:34Speaker 1: because they have to. And if you're just breaking up
- 11:38Speaker 1: the pass, maybe we can win a one-on-one occasionally. But
- 11:43Speaker 1: if you're not creating turnovers with it, You just took
- 11:49Speaker 1: away one element that you could be dominant at and
- 11:52Speaker 1: make people say, no, I ain't going to this dude
- 11:54Speaker 1: at all.
- 11:55Speaker 2: Well, if you're picking off the ball, it's a turnover
- 12:00Speaker 2: right then and there. And if you're thinking that is
- 12:03Speaker 2: going to happen, you're going to be a little more hesitant.
- 12:06Speaker 2: If you're going 50-50 chance that we're going to get
- 12:09Speaker 2: a defensive pass interference or he's just going to punch
- 12:11Speaker 2: the ball out last second and he's going to get
- 12:13Speaker 2: up in their grill, that's not something that guys are
- 12:16Speaker 2: going to be scared of.
- 12:19Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not.
- 12:21Speaker 2: And he got good amount of pass interference calls last year.
- 12:25Speaker 2: And so the thing is, especially when you play in
- 12:28Speaker 2: this league. Yeah, you got you do it a couple
- 12:31Speaker 2: of times. It's what you call a pattern or a habit.
- 12:35Speaker 2: And we're going to see it ever since people are
- 12:37Speaker 2: going to continue to throw at him until he gets
- 12:40Speaker 2: himself under control or he starts picking off a few passes,
- 12:43Speaker 2: because if it's. For the quarterback, it's either him punching
- 12:48Speaker 2: the ball out or DPI. They're going to take those chances.
- 12:55Speaker 1: Yeah. From there, though, Cole Sullivan had some good moments.
- 13:05Speaker 1: He had some meh moments. Nesta had some good moments
- 13:09Speaker 1: and some meh moments.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
- 13:13Speaker 1: Owen had some good moments and some bad moments. The
- 13:15Speaker 1: linebackers is without Kip. And people have mentioned in the comments,
- 13:20Speaker 1: Kip seemed hesitant against UTEP. It's like you could tell
- 13:23Speaker 1: everybody was just amped up. I need people to settle
- 13:26Speaker 1: down going into this New Mexico game and then traveling
- 13:31Speaker 1: to Athens. And as people have mentioned in the comments,
- 13:34Speaker 1: you're 100% right. There's a very good chance that we'll
- 13:37Speaker 1: be facing the number one and number two teams in
- 13:39Speaker 1: the country in back-to-back weeks. Back-to-back weeks. If you want
- 13:44Speaker 1: to bounce all the way back, that is your epic opportunity.
- 13:48Speaker 1: You get the two top teams, then you'll get a
- 13:50Speaker 1: top 10 Ole Miss most likely. You'll most likely get
- 13:53Speaker 1: a top 15 A & M. You may get a
- 14:00Speaker 1: top 25 Florida the way things are going. If Mississippi
- 14:07Speaker 1: State keeps doing what I think they're going to keep doing,
- 14:09Speaker 1: you get a top 25 Mississippi State. There's a chance
- 14:11Speaker 1: that every SEC game besides Kentucky is a top 25
- 14:15Speaker 1: matchup at the time of playing. All Oklahoma has to
- 14:21Speaker 1: do is keep winning. I'm not saying we're putting on
- 14:24Speaker 1: the season. I am very frustrated in the play call.
- 14:27Speaker 1: I'm very frustrated. Now things are going to frustrated with
- 14:29Speaker 1: BV because I love BV so much. I want him
- 14:31Speaker 1: to be successful, but he's too damn nice sometimes. And
- 14:34Speaker 1: I need him to put his foot in somebody in
- 14:36Speaker 1: behind sometimes. But at the same time, I haven't quit
- 14:40Speaker 1: on the team. I voiced my frustration. I was frustrated there.
- 14:44Speaker 1: And then I was done. Like right after the game,
- 14:46Speaker 1: I was like, all right, flush. Let's figure out week three.
- 14:49Speaker 1: We clean up some stuff for week four. What can
- 14:52Speaker 1: we do to make it easy? And honestly, the best way,
- 14:54Speaker 1: play the Michigan game every single week from 2025. Materia
- 14:59Speaker 1: needs to run the ball 15 times. That should open
- 15:01Speaker 1: it up for the other running backs to be able
- 15:03Speaker 1: to run it. Or play the South Carolina game every week.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Run the ball 33 times. Run a ton of 10,
- 15:08Speaker 1: 12 personnel. Get your tight ends involved. Torrey's back. Get
- 15:14Speaker 1: him going. Get Avant going. Get Hatton going. Pull X-Rop.
- 15:21Speaker 1: You can go from there. Get Dez Walker going.
- 15:26Speaker 2: Do that. It's... I'm... It's the definition of crazy. You
- 15:34Speaker 2: keep on doing the same action and expecting a different result.
- 15:39Speaker 2: And at this point, I don't want this team to be,
- 15:43Speaker 2: you know, and Murray, you're kind of saying here, like, yeah,
- 15:47Speaker 2: if we were playing Bama, we'd probably get turned up
- 15:49Speaker 2: and win that game.
- 15:50Speaker 1: Like, Do that every game, damn it.
- 15:54Speaker 2: It's one play at a time. It is not.
- 15:59Speaker 2: We're going in circles here. Play one play at a time.
- 16:04Speaker 2: Play under control. That's it? That's it. This defense could
- 16:11Speaker 2: play this game every single week and we could win.
- 16:16Speaker 2: But now you have... a running quarterback which has caused
- 16:20Speaker 2: a lot of issues for you two weeks in a row.
- 16:23Speaker 2: So I can promise you this, is when you go out,
- 16:27Speaker 2: when we see New Mexico this week, their quarterback is
- 16:30Speaker 2: going to be running around. Stockton is going to have
- 16:33Speaker 2: a lot more run plays than he usually does. Arch Manning,
- 16:38Speaker 2: he's going to be running around. And they're going to
- 16:41Speaker 2: take some of those RPO hits too. And that's another
- 16:44Speaker 2: thing is, Everybody now goes, okay, well, we now have
- 16:52Speaker 2: some success that people are throwing out here against this
- 16:54Speaker 2: Oklahoma defense, and nobody's scared of this offense still. You're
- 16:59Speaker 2: going to have to change your fortune on offense by
- 17:03Speaker 2: proving that you can do it. And last year we
- 17:05Speaker 2: had an absolute saving grace. We always got a big
- 17:12Speaker 2: play from Satania or the defense. And it turned the
- 17:15Speaker 2: game around, and that saved our ass way more than once.
- 17:19Speaker 2: And that's not a game plan, is just wait until
- 17:26Speaker 2: your 60-plus yard touchdown pass to Satania comes undone. I
- 17:31Speaker 2: would love for us to come out against New Mexico
- 17:35Speaker 2: and run 90% in 12 personnel. 90%. I don't care
- 17:40Speaker 2: if John Mateer throws the ball under 20 times. You
- 17:43Speaker 2: just come out and you just run, run, run, run.
- 17:47Speaker 1: You're better than me. I'd be pissed if they did
- 17:49Speaker 1: that after not doing it last week. Like what? Like WTF, mate?
- 17:54Speaker 1: Like you have it. Like use it. We've got four
- 17:58Speaker 1: tight ends that we can leverage. Do that more. That
- 18:04Speaker 1: way you can really open it up for your receivers.
- 18:08Speaker 1: That also gives help to your tackles.
- 18:11Speaker 2: Right? Right?
- 18:12Speaker 1: Do that. That is what the thing I want more
- 18:15Speaker 1: of is I want more 12 personnel. Give me some
- 18:20Speaker 1: 13 if you need to run it. Let those dudes
- 18:23Speaker 1: be physical with everybody else and go. And we'll be
- 18:27Speaker 1: all right. The QB counter works.
- 18:32Speaker 2: It works. Right?
- 18:36Speaker 1: Like I think it doesn't feel like on Ben's RPO
- 18:41Speaker 1: set up is he tells you where to go. I
- 18:44Speaker 1: feel like that with Camario Taylor. I feel like that
- 18:46Speaker 1: with Julian Lewis when I watch Colorado play. I feel
- 18:48Speaker 1: like that with Jaden Maiava. With a lot of the
- 18:53Speaker 1: quarterbacks that do RPO, I feel like they're told this
- 18:55Speaker 1: is where you go. Regardless, just go there. Works. It's
- 19:02Speaker 1: okay to script it. Script two out of the three downs.
- 19:07Speaker 1: It's okay.
- 19:09Speaker 2: And here's the thing, Jay. This is This is what
- 19:11Speaker 2: we've heard for four years now. You see much, much
- 19:17Speaker 2: less talented programs across the entire country at least put
- 19:22Speaker 2: something out there. Are you telling me that we get
- 19:28Speaker 2: one good drive a game?
- 19:30Speaker 1: One.
- 19:32Speaker 2: One.
- 19:32Speaker 1: No, we had two. We had two. The two scoring
- 19:34Speaker 1: drives were really, really good. The ending of the second
- 19:37Speaker 1: drive to a field goal pissed me off or whatevs.
- 19:40Speaker 1: We should have done a lot better. John should have
- 19:45Speaker 1: been doing a lot of those seven for seven drives
- 19:48Speaker 1: because he had it. and he looked confident. It's like,
- 19:52Speaker 1: what are we doing? It just felt like the whole
- 19:55Speaker 1: game plan was just don't lose the game offense. Just
- 19:57Speaker 1: don't lose the game offense. No. Like I mentioned it
- 20:02Speaker 1: on my day after video, this team has lost. It's
- 20:05Speaker 1: a benefit of the doubt for me. I gave it
- 20:07Speaker 1: to him at the beginning of the year because we
- 20:08Speaker 1: went 10-2 last year and there was things I knew
- 20:10Speaker 1: that if we cleaned it up and we replaced certain pieces,
- 20:14Speaker 1: we'd be better. The tight ends are 100% as advertised.
- 20:18Speaker 1: So I have to say that, that gave me what
- 20:20Speaker 1: I needed and we got that even in Michigan. So
- 20:23Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, I feel good about that. But
- 20:26Speaker 1: until this team can go out there and blow out
- 20:27Speaker 1: a PFO, every game is going to be close. Every
- 20:34Speaker 1: single game is going to be close. Every score is
- 20:35Speaker 1: going to be close. We're not scoring 30. Go out
- 20:37Speaker 1: there and score 30 multiple times. We ain't scored 30 points.
- 20:40Speaker 1: We ain't scored more than 28 points offensively since we've
- 20:45Speaker 1: been in the SEC.
- 20:47Speaker 2: Against a P14.
- 20:49Speaker 1: In SEC play.
- 20:50Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:51Speaker 1: In conference play the last two years, we have not
- 20:54Speaker 1: scored more than 28 points on the offensive side of
- 20:56Speaker 1: the ball. Special teams add something or that's what needs
- 21:01Speaker 1: to change. We need to be more aggressive of just
- 21:06Speaker 1: throwing it deep and letting our dudes run underneath it.
- 21:08Speaker 1: We've got the guys to do it. I don't even
- 21:10Speaker 1: shake anybody. Just go out and run them. And that's
- 21:13Speaker 1: the other thing. We've watched the five to seven step drops.
- 21:20Speaker 1: You just go boom, boom, boom, and just throw it
- 21:23Speaker 1: to that area. For real, that's all I want. Throw
- 21:25Speaker 1: it to that spot and say, go run underneath it.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Let those dudes do some one-on-one battles with people. We
- 21:31Speaker 1: know you got to rock it. Launch it. Go be
- 21:34Speaker 1: the gunslinger. Final thoughts, Coop? We're going to jump into
- 21:38Speaker 1: these questions. There's a ton of them in here. Everybody's mad.
- 21:41Speaker 1: I get it. Y'all upset. I've always told y'all I
- 21:43Speaker 1: have no problem. As long as you're respectful, feel free
- 21:48Speaker 1: to vent. I'm here for it. Because I'm the exact
- 21:51Speaker 1: same way.
- 21:53Speaker 2: John Mateer is the worst quarterback in the SEC right
- 21:56Speaker 2: now until he proves that he's not. I don't know
- 22:00Speaker 2: if you can legitimately argue that. For anybody else.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Yeah, no, not at all.
- 22:07Speaker 2: A lot of it has to do with probably the
- 22:11Speaker 2: offensive line, probably the play calling, but this is his
- 22:17Speaker 2: fourth year in the system. Four.
- 22:21Speaker 1: Your coach should not be afraid to run plays for you.
- 22:24Speaker 2: No, no.
- 22:25Speaker 1: I don't care about anybody else around you. You should
- 22:27Speaker 1: be able to tell your quarterback, hey, go do this.
- 22:30Speaker 1: Go get me a first down.
- 22:32Speaker 2: Because, Jay, here's the thing, and this one will hit
- 22:35Speaker 2: home for everybody. Baker Mayfield signed a contract on like
- 22:42Speaker 2: a Tuesday, flew out to L.A., and played a football game,
- 22:47Speaker 2: and it led him to a win. He didn't have
- 22:51Speaker 2: experience with that O.C. He didn't have experience with that
- 22:54Speaker 2: offensive line, the running backs, the wide receivers. He was
- 22:57Speaker 2: playing with the fifth, sixth string practice string guys, and
- 23:01Speaker 2: he was still able to do things. So you've been
- 23:06Speaker 2: in the system for four years. Arbuckle, there's... Until... As
- 23:14Speaker 2: of right now, mentally, there are big changes. And I
- 23:18Speaker 2: saw someone put a chat in here. I swear to God,
- 23:20Speaker 2: if a judge gives him a fifth year, I'll... I'm
- 23:27Speaker 2: not for it. I think that I've kind of got it.
- 23:31Speaker 2: He can flip some stuff around, Jay. But no, I
- 23:36Speaker 2: don't think that you throw Bo Bentley out there yet.
- 23:38Speaker 2: He's still a freshman. The last thing that we need
- 23:40Speaker 2: to do is throw a freshman out there behind a
- 23:44Speaker 2: curious offensive line. We need John to go in there,
- 23:48Speaker 2: and it's like the longest yard, the Adam Sandler version.
- 23:55Speaker 2: They find out that he took the plea deal at halftime,
- 23:59Speaker 2: and they just start doing jailbreak, and he's just getting
- 24:01Speaker 2: his ass pounded into the ground, and the offensive line's
- 24:05Speaker 2: trying to send a message. I think at this point,
- 24:07Speaker 2: if I'm John, I kill myself to prove that I'm
- 24:11Speaker 2: going to give every bit, because as of right now,
- 24:15Speaker 2: dude's not going to the NFL, so you might as
- 24:17Speaker 2: well get out there and go crazy. I mean, God,
- 24:21Speaker 2: seeing what we have in the NFL, maybe I'm wrong,
- 24:23Speaker 2: but As of right now.
- 24:24Speaker 1: It's not that a, we have a development problem at
- 24:27Speaker 1: the quarterback position and just period a lot, a lot.
- 24:31Speaker 1: It's very like quarterback play has been God awful for years.
- 24:35Speaker 1: It's bad. But to your point, you're a hundred percent right.
- 24:38Speaker 1: Lay it all on the line. Now, this is your opportunity.
- 24:42Speaker 1: Jonathan asks at the beginning of the show, BV is
- 24:44Speaker 1: in his fourth OC in his fifth year is in
- 24:47Speaker 1: an organizational philosophy rather than OC issue. Is BV handicapping
- 24:52Speaker 1: the OCs to run a version of their offense to
- 24:54Speaker 1: benefit his defense versus scoring points quickly?
- 24:57Speaker 2: No.
- 24:58Speaker 1: Remember, Lebby was here two years. His offense definitely did
- 25:04Speaker 1: not complement the BV's defense in the Big 12 at all.
- 25:08Speaker 1: We were always talking about how his up-tempo would lead
- 25:11Speaker 1: us to 30-second drives and then the defense is right
- 25:15Speaker 1: back on the field and they start getting gas quick.
- 25:17Speaker 1: We talked about that a lot.
- 25:18Speaker 2: No.
- 25:19Speaker 1: That's definitely not the philosophy. They tried the trail thing,
- 25:24Speaker 1: which I talk about retreading. I'll give it a shot once,
- 25:30Speaker 1: but I don't always recommend it. But we did the
- 25:34Speaker 1: retreading with him, brought him back, didn't work, and now
- 25:38Speaker 1: we're on our buckle. So that's three technically. It'll be
- 25:40Speaker 1: the fourth whenever he moves on from this one because
- 25:44Speaker 1: that's what happens to defensive coaches. They lose OCs. Typically
- 25:46Speaker 1: OCs get jobs. Ben probably won't get a head coaching job.
- 25:49Speaker 1: Unless he turns this around quickly and stop being afraid.
- 25:54Speaker 1: But that is typically what happens on defensive guys. Unfortunately,
- 25:57Speaker 1: they lose. I mean, Saban went through. He averaged a
- 26:01Speaker 1: new OC every two years. And some went to the NFL.
- 26:06Speaker 1: Some got demoted. One got fired. He's the head coach
- 26:10Speaker 1: at LSU now, but he got fired. So, yeah, that's
- 26:17Speaker 1: exactly what it is. But with that, I don't think
- 26:21Speaker 1: it's a philosophy or organization. It's just his last really
- 26:26Speaker 1: good OC is now head coach at Mississippi State, and
- 26:28Speaker 1: he's putting in work. He's now trying to replace that,
- 26:32Speaker 1: and that's really, really, really hard to do. And we're
- 26:34Speaker 1: not in an era where defenses can just completely win
- 26:37Speaker 1: you a championship anymore. You've got to have quarterback play.
- 26:40Speaker 1: In some capacity.
- 26:41Speaker 2: You have to. But you also have to, again, you
- 26:45Speaker 2: have to be able to lean in on something on
- 26:47Speaker 2: your offense. And that is something that we have still
- 26:49Speaker 2: yet to be able to do. Even the year where
- 26:52Speaker 2: we were a top five offense, it really didn't feel
- 26:55Speaker 2: like it because the way that our running back rotation
- 26:58Speaker 2: was just so wonky. But, Jay, I'm sitting here telling
- 27:03Speaker 2: you this. I'm at a point where I don't care if,
- 27:07Speaker 2: The new OC has a neck brace and road rash
- 27:10Speaker 2: from him and his lady friend taking a tumble on
- 27:12Speaker 2: their motorcycle. I don't care.
- 27:14Speaker 1: Really, Bobby Petrino?
- 27:15Speaker 2: Really? Bobby Petrino has scored more points this season than,
- 27:24Speaker 2: I mean, he was scoring points at Arkansas. They couldn't
- 27:27Speaker 2: do shit, but he could score points.
- 27:30Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.
- 27:31Speaker 2: That's the problem. I don't care either. We just have
- 27:35Speaker 2: so many people out there scoring points left and right.
- 27:38Speaker 2: And I think, Jay, I'm going to dig in here.
- 27:41Speaker 2: I don't know if this is going to take us
- 27:42Speaker 2: off the rail, but it's about damn time. It's about
- 27:46Speaker 2: damn time that we see this offensive line be worth something.
- 27:50Speaker 2: Like the injuries are one thing.
- 27:55Speaker 1: It's awful.
- 27:56Speaker 2: It is absolutely awful that we cannot get like, you know,
- 28:00Speaker 2: because it's like, well, now we're resetting with a bunch
- 28:02Speaker 2: of freshmen towards the end of the year. And everything,
- 28:04Speaker 2: you know, we talked about it over and over and
- 28:06Speaker 2: over again, is this offensive line will be what takes
- 28:09Speaker 2: us where. It still is the case. We still need
- 28:14Speaker 2: five guys to get out there and play at least
- 28:17Speaker 2: two games back-to-back and learn from each other. But there's
- 28:25Speaker 2: really bad offensive linemen out there just hanging on for
- 28:27Speaker 2: dear life, and a competent OC knows how to help
- 28:32Speaker 2: something out. Like, we see coaching happen week in and
- 28:35Speaker 2: week out, and that's why I think a lot of
- 28:37Speaker 2: people are frustrated because you're watching something going, what in
- 28:41Speaker 2: the hell? Like, listen, I'll give a shout-out to Texas.
- 28:45Speaker 2: I thought they were dead. I thought they were done
- 28:48Speaker 2: in that game. And they just kept on pressing and
- 28:50Speaker 2: kept on pressing and kept on pressing, and they never quit.
- 28:55Speaker 2: I haven't seen that out of us this year so far.
- 28:57Speaker 1: Somebody– One, we've only played two games, but I 100%
- 29:01Speaker 1: agree with you on that. But two, it's funny. Somebody
- 29:03Speaker 1: pointed out in that game how as they were trying
- 29:07Speaker 1: to run a true game plan with Manning, everything ran
- 29:10Speaker 1: to shit. And they were like, when they just let
- 29:12Speaker 1: him go play backyard football and just go play, he
- 29:15Speaker 1: looked more comfortable. Like Sark's... Sark's biggest problem is he
- 29:21Speaker 1: tries to structure it so much. He tries to do
- 29:23Speaker 1: like Cal Shanahan does and McVay. If you have the
- 29:29Speaker 1: right quarterback for that that is at that type... like
- 29:33Speaker 1: I'm not saying that Manning like Arch isn't cerebral but
- 29:36Speaker 1: what I'm saying is is that he his mind isn't
- 29:40Speaker 1: set to where he just follows a specific routine and
- 29:42Speaker 1: go Arch Manning's a ball player put him on the
- 29:45Speaker 1: field tell him to go but with that the biggest
- 29:52Speaker 1: thing here for us is I just need y'all to
- 29:55Speaker 1: run the ball down people's throat. And like you said,
- 29:57Speaker 1: we need to get the offensive line going. We need,
- 30:00Speaker 1: I mean, they'll be older next season. You'll have all
- 30:02Speaker 1: veterans again. But the problem is you won't have a
- 30:05Speaker 1: veteran quarterback. So you probably got the portal quarterback. The
- 30:08Speaker 1: question is who? I don't know. I'm going to tell
- 30:11Speaker 1: y'all this. I've seen somebody mention this before. JKS over
- 30:14Speaker 1: there at Cal. Oh, y'all would hate him so much. Oh,
- 30:18Speaker 1: y'all would be so pissed. Like if you think Mateer
- 30:21Speaker 1: throws turnovers, he's just, he's a for real gunslinger. Now
- 30:23Speaker 1: he's got some beautiful teardrop throw. Like they just dropping buckets.
- 30:28Speaker 1: Y'all would hate him. So I've watched a few Cal games.
- 30:32Speaker 1: I'm like, oh damn, you wearing me out. And I'm
- 30:35Speaker 1: not even a fan. Like I'd be mad. Yeah. Anyway,
- 30:39Speaker 1: I love this question. I love this one. Remember when
- 30:42Speaker 1: Sam Bradford played for a national title with Kevin Wilson
- 30:44Speaker 1: as OC? Yeah, I did remember that 18 years ago.
- 30:49Speaker 1: I think there's a reason why Chad Morris didn't work
- 30:51Speaker 1: at Clemson or isn't working at Clemson so far.
- 30:56Speaker 2: Same reason why I'm not asking Frank Solich to come
- 30:58Speaker 2: help us out.
- 31:00Speaker 1: Retreads, man. Retreads, I highly recommend avoiding them like the
- 31:04Speaker 1: plague because people come back with bringing an old philosophy
- 31:09Speaker 1: and a lot of that stuff does not work. It
- 31:12Speaker 1: usually leads to something bad. A lot of teams we
- 31:15Speaker 1: see retread. We see people retread to save jobs. Did
- 31:18Speaker 1: y'all see Arkansas try that with Bobby Petrino? Because Coop,
- 31:20Speaker 1: didn't you just talk about how Bobby Petrino didn't be
- 31:22Speaker 1: putting up them numbers?
- 31:24Speaker 2: Yes, and then he's now somewhere else. Right.
- 31:29Speaker 1: He still got his coach fired. Retreads, man. You got
- 31:33Speaker 1: to be careful with that. Like, there's a reason why
- 31:36Speaker 1: Petrino left Texas A & M too. He's just like,
- 31:38Speaker 1: I ain't done with Jimbo fishing no more. Some coaches,
- 31:40Speaker 1: it just is what it is. So you got to
- 31:42Speaker 1: be careful with the idea of a retread. It's just.
- 31:47Speaker 2: Kevin Wilson also got ran out of Ohio State.
- 31:50Speaker 1: So....
- 31:53Speaker 2: It's not like Kevin Wilson was crushing it and they're like,
- 31:55Speaker 2: come on back, buddy. They're like, hey, they got a
- 31:59Speaker 2: job board right over there if you want to go
- 32:01Speaker 2: take a looky.
- 32:02Speaker 1: I love Kevin. Like, I think I think K-Dub will
- 32:05Speaker 1: be fantastic in his role as analyst. I just need
- 32:10Speaker 1: him to, I need him to either A, speak up
- 32:11Speaker 1: more or B, stop speaking up more.
- 32:14Speaker 2: One of the two.
- 32:15Speaker 1: Don't know which one it is. But I need, I
- 32:18Speaker 1: would like us to get that 12 personnel going back again.
- 32:22Speaker 1: I would like D. Lee McCullough to add some influence
- 32:24Speaker 1: to that. I like Jason Witten. to do it as well.
- 32:27Speaker 1: Has Jason Witten called plays before? I don't recall him
- 32:30Speaker 1: calling plays in high school. Did he call plays in
- 32:31Speaker 1: high school? I'd love to go ahead and try him.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Can we pull the same book out and have him
- 32:35Speaker 1: do it too?
- 32:35Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 32:36Speaker 1: I'm just saying. I need Ben to go back to
- 32:40Speaker 1: what we were doing the first week of the season,
- 32:42Speaker 1: literally a week ago. It's, go back.
- 32:46Speaker 2: Kevin Wilson is here to help Ben Arbuckle, but Ben
- 32:50Speaker 2: Arbuckle still has to do the right thing, right? That's it. Like,
- 32:53Speaker 2: he is, he's 100% I still would like to understand,
- 33:01Speaker 2: why is it that Lloyd Avant was running the ball
- 33:06Speaker 2: and then you just quit feeding him?
- 33:09Speaker 1: That made me mad. Like, what are we doing? Seven
- 33:12Speaker 1: yards of carry. He's like 6.6 yards of carry at
- 33:16Speaker 1: the half.
- 33:18Speaker 2: And Torrey, hey, we're going to get you your one
- 33:22Speaker 2: opportunity here on the one-yard line so you can use
- 33:25Speaker 2: that speed. And, I mean, at least we didn't jump
- 33:29Speaker 2: off sides. I don't know. But you have to see
- 33:35Speaker 2: something change. And I can promise you this. Because the
- 33:39Speaker 2: fact that Michigan just did the flip between being, you know, listen,
- 33:46Speaker 2: we look like the asses of college football right now
- 33:48Speaker 2: because everybody was joining our side so that you could
- 33:51Speaker 2: stick it to Michigan. I can promise you this. There
- 33:54Speaker 2: were a lot of people probably watching that game, non-OU fans,
- 33:57Speaker 2: that were wanting Michigan to get their butts handed to them.
- 34:00Speaker 2: And then after watching OU play like they did, they
- 34:03Speaker 2: were like, no, OU deserves to lose this game. And
- 34:07Speaker 2: until you get some creativity, like, I don't care. Listen,
- 34:11Speaker 2: in Major League Baseball, they said, screw analytics, go up there,
- 34:16Speaker 2: swing for the fences every dadgum time. So I would
- 34:20Speaker 2: rather John Mateer go out there and complete close to
- 34:23Speaker 2: 50% of his passes And just give us shots downfield. Like,
- 34:27Speaker 2: do something. Let's get something. But I can promise you this.
- 34:30Speaker 2: Don't be in the shotgun and take an extra five
- 34:32Speaker 2: to seven steps back behind. Because then you got to
- 34:36Speaker 2: rocket the ball to get back to the line of scrimmage.
- 34:38Speaker 1: I just want the posses to be thrown deep. Like,
- 34:45Speaker 1: tell your wide receivers, this is the spot it's going
- 34:48Speaker 1: to be on this play. I'm going to go. To
- 34:52Speaker 1: a three step drop. Or a five step drop. And
- 34:55Speaker 1: I'm going to launch it. And I want you to
- 34:57Speaker 1: run underneath it. This is the exact spot I'm going
- 34:59Speaker 1: to launch it at. Please do that.
- 35:00Speaker 2: That's it.
- 35:05Speaker 1: That's it. It helps a lot when people do it.
- 35:08Speaker 1: But what's the issue? No. People don't do it. They
- 35:13Speaker 1: don't get in there. They don't. They just don't. Like. Yeah.
- 35:20Speaker 1: Kills me. Kills me. That that's what we get. Like
- 35:24Speaker 1: someone mentioned it here, Brendan Marion, which is awesome. The
- 35:27Speaker 1: go-go would have been fun here. I don't know if it,
- 35:31Speaker 1: I would have fun with the go-go, but I didn't
- 35:33Speaker 1: think it was going to work. Didn't feel like it
- 35:35Speaker 1: would work at this level. We'll see how it goes
- 35:37Speaker 1: at Colorado. He started off okay at Georgia Tech. It
- 35:41Speaker 1: turned up against Weber State last week. Northwestern is going
- 35:45Speaker 1: to be his test. He gets to go see Chip Kelly.
- 35:47Speaker 2: Is Chip Kelly available?
- 35:49Speaker 1: So people lose their mind about Chip Kelly. I would
- 35:52Speaker 1: lose my mind about Chip Kelly. I would lose my
- 35:54Speaker 1: mind about Chip Kelly. I would lose my mind about
- 35:56Speaker 1: Chip Kelly. Go ahead and get your boards up. You're
- 36:01Speaker 1: going to get your hot boards going on. Who are
- 36:02Speaker 1: you looking at? But I'm going to tell you this.
- 36:04Speaker 1: If you're going to get yourself an OC, but go
- 36:05Speaker 1: ahead and get your QB, go with it. You're probably
- 36:11Speaker 1: going to need a tandem. Question is, how ready is
- 36:16Speaker 1: Bo going to be as a freshman? Or does Jamison
- 36:19Speaker 1: Roberts walk in and be ready? Or is Whit Neubauer ready?
- 36:23Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you this. I didn't feel the
- 36:25Speaker 1: warm and fuzzies watching UTEP when they went in the game.
- 36:29Speaker 1: I don't know about you, Coop. I didn't feel warm
- 36:32Speaker 1: and fuzzies.
- 36:34Speaker 2: That was the first concern I think I've had for
- 36:36Speaker 2: this offense, is you bring in a 6'6 dude who's
- 36:39Speaker 2: got a rocket for an arm, and you're like, hey,
- 36:42Speaker 2: let's do some RPO QB runs here.
- 36:46Speaker 1: Yeah, no, no. I didn't feel the warm and fuzzies
- 36:48Speaker 1: in that game. So I'm like, mm, mm.
- 36:53Speaker 2: And I will say this, guys. Let's ride the relax-y
- 36:58Speaker 2: taxi on Michael Hawkins Jr. still to this point. Because
- 37:01Speaker 2: he's played nobody.
- 37:02Speaker 1: I need to see what it looks like when he's
- 37:03Speaker 1: in conference play.
- 37:04Speaker 2: Yeah, he has played nobody. And listen, he got a
- 37:09Speaker 2: game against a nobody last year, and he tried to
- 37:11Speaker 2: kill a kid. So, speaking of... I think Hawkins would be.
- 37:15Speaker 1: I think Hawkins is going to... He fits the Rich
- 37:18Speaker 1: Rod offense.
- 37:19Speaker 2: He does.
- 37:20Speaker 1: Just so well. He fits it perfectly. He'll scramble. He
- 37:24Speaker 1: can do some option stuff. He'll just throw it and
- 37:28Speaker 1: tell a receiver to get up underneath it. That's what
- 37:30Speaker 1: I need John to do. Throw it, tell your receiver
- 37:34Speaker 1: to catch underneath it. Do that. Do that. It's very simple.
- 37:42Speaker 1: But I don't know. SEC play was interesting yesterday. Texas
- 37:47Speaker 1: gets a win that Ohio State, how did they do that?
- 37:53Speaker 2: They thought the game was over. It's the same thing
- 37:56Speaker 2: that they did last year.
- 37:57Speaker 1: Oh, God. You're up 23-3, bro. Oh, gosh. Thank y'all
- 38:05Speaker 1: for pulling up. Hit the like button if you're new
- 38:06Speaker 1: to the channel. Subscribe, rate, review, give us five stars. Yeah, man.
- 38:12Speaker 1: How are you up 23-3, Coop, and you lose?
- 38:14Speaker 2: Well, like I said, they did the same thing last year.
- 38:17Speaker 1: Right.
- 38:18Speaker 2: They got up, and then the creativity was just gone.
- 38:24Speaker 2: Just absolutely gone. And you got to give credit. I mean,
- 38:28Speaker 2: Texas didn't, Texas could have probably been like, all right,
- 38:32Speaker 2: all right, so let's go, let's go do something good,
- 38:36Speaker 2: you know, in conference play. But they just kept on pressing.
- 38:39Speaker 2: And like you, like you said, Arch Manning, once he
- 38:43Speaker 2: got out of, once he got out of the, just
- 38:47Speaker 2: kind of like playing within the flow of the game
- 38:51Speaker 2: instead of, you know, going through reads or whatever, like,
- 38:55Speaker 2: he plays a better game. And it seems like when
- 38:57Speaker 2: all hell breaks loose is when he is at his best.
- 39:05Speaker 2: I don't understand it, and I don't know if it's
- 39:07Speaker 2: super duplicable or something that you can depend on to
- 39:09Speaker 2: go win a national championship. We need all chaos to
- 39:14Speaker 2: break out, and then you can unlock who you really are.
- 39:17Speaker 2: But they just kept on going, and it wasn't big,
- 39:21Speaker 2: it wasn't sexy, it wasn't Terrific. It just kept going.
- 39:26Speaker 2: And then you look up, and it's ten points. Now
- 39:29Speaker 2: it's seven points. And then at the end of it,
- 39:33Speaker 2: Ohio State all of a sudden– I still think that
- 39:36Speaker 2: Ohio State has an issue on their offensive line, an
- 39:39Speaker 2: issue running the football. And their cheat code is, let's
- 39:43Speaker 2: just get it up to Smith. And if that doesn't work,
- 39:47Speaker 2: it's tough. My God.
- 39:48Speaker 1: But he's so good, though.
- 39:50Speaker 2: He is very good.
- 39:51Speaker 1: It should be illegal. I would actually like to get
- 39:55Speaker 1: him banned. Someone lie and say that he took a
- 40:00Speaker 1: pro contract or something. Somebody make a fake one up
- 40:02Speaker 1: or something. I don't know. He is really good. I.
- 40:07Speaker 1: To see a receiver in one-on-ones force the defender to
- 40:13Speaker 1: never turn around because they're trying to catch up with
- 40:16Speaker 1: him and he can just jump and make insane catches.
- 40:21Speaker 1: I would like Mateer to watch Julian Sane play and
- 40:24Speaker 1: throw the ball the way he does. That's what I
- 40:27Speaker 1: would like. Because it was really sad that Ohio State,
- 40:31Speaker 1: it felt like they weren't even trying to score. They
- 40:33Speaker 1: were playing to not lose. Yeah. Kind of felt like Georgia,
- 40:38Speaker 1: the Rose Bowl, us against Georgia. That's exactly what it
- 40:40Speaker 1: felt like. It's like you were playing to not lose
- 40:43Speaker 1: this game. Why?
- 40:45Speaker 2: And I can promise... Listen, I don't have very good
- 40:50Speaker 2: hope that Julian Sane is going to become anybody in NFL.
- 40:57Speaker 2: I think that he has... I think that he's got
- 41:01Speaker 2: the cheat code. But... There was also nothing else happening
- 41:05Speaker 2: with anybody else.
- 41:07Speaker 1: At all. Hey, Okie Light, shout out to them. Gotta
- 41:11Speaker 1: actually give them some love. They actually pushed Oregon over
- 41:15Speaker 1: the fence like many hoped that was going to happen
- 41:18Speaker 1: last week. I love so many people saying that that's
- 41:21Speaker 1: like the biggest win. That's a bigger win than anything
- 41:24Speaker 1: ABV's ever done. I'm just like, no. We watched them
- 41:27Speaker 1: almost lose to Boise State. They were down like two scores.
- 41:32Speaker 1: Week one against Boise State. And Boise State's not a
- 41:34Speaker 1: bad G6. But they were down two scores. It was
- 41:39Speaker 1: like 24-14 at some point. And then Oregon came back.
- 41:42Speaker 1: Oklahoma State tried to give them the game. Was that
- 41:45Speaker 1: a pick six?
- 41:47Speaker 2: A fumble?
- 41:48Speaker 1: There's all kinds of stuff. That game was wild. But
- 41:52Speaker 1: I will say this. I've had so many people say
- 41:53Speaker 1: that they wanted Dan Lanning.
- 41:54Speaker 2: I think it's more of the same.
- 42:01Speaker 1: They got the most money. They're spending the most money
- 42:03Speaker 1: on recruits. They're getting the most players. And so my
- 42:09Speaker 1: argument has been, understand more and more today about coaching.
- 42:15Speaker 1: And so when I flip out on coaching for Oklahoma,
- 42:18Speaker 1: flip out on coaching, because that's only we going to
- 42:20Speaker 1: win nowadays, dog, like buying all these or Indiana and
- 42:24Speaker 1: have to, They went out and got players with experience
- 42:28Speaker 1: and they just beat the crap out of everybody. Nagy's
- 42:31Speaker 1: probably going to do that this spring. We're probably going
- 42:35Speaker 1: to spend a ton in the portal on top of
- 42:39Speaker 1: our recruits. They're going to restock it. They're going to
- 42:44Speaker 1: probably spend on a quarterback to get some veteran presence,
- 42:47Speaker 1: unless Bo Bentley really proves something. But, yeah. Or Jameson
- 42:53Speaker 1: Roberts walk in here and say, nah, I would like
- 42:56Speaker 1: to be Kamario Taylor.
- 43:06Speaker 2: And just hear it this way. Right now, at the
- 43:10Speaker 2: beginning of the season, OU and Oregon were a lot
- 43:16Speaker 2: of the same conversation with who's going to be the
- 43:18Speaker 2: best defense. I don't care if you had a bad day.
- 43:24Speaker 2: The team that just lost to Tulsa just threw up.
- 43:27Speaker 2: almost 600 yards offense on you. Like that's, that should
- 43:31Speaker 2: not happen. I think I said it last week. I
- 43:35Speaker 2: think Tosh being gone, going to Cal, like that's a
- 43:38Speaker 2: big deal. And now you've got two guys who are
- 43:42Speaker 2: supposed to be, you know, top 10 picks on their
- 43:45Speaker 2: defensive line. I mean, it's not the fact that like OSU,
- 43:53Speaker 2: you know, took advantage of some, turnovers, mustered 311 total
- 43:58Speaker 2: yards on the day, and ended up winning the game.
- 44:01Speaker 2: I mean, they did what they wanted the entire day.
- 44:06Speaker 2: And so, yeah, congratulations to them. I mean, it looks
- 44:12Speaker 2: like game to game already with this season. That's why
- 44:18Speaker 2: I'm telling OU fans, it's not all the way gone.
- 44:22Speaker 2: You can go out and do something. but every single
- 44:25Speaker 2: one of these teams went out and did something after
- 44:27Speaker 2: a piss poor performance in week one. Yeah.
- 44:31Speaker 1: Got work to do. We got, we got work to
- 44:36Speaker 1: do on the bounce back. The bounce back is going
- 44:41Speaker 1: to be big period. They better sue their asses.
- 44:46Speaker 2: Kobe.
- 44:48Speaker 1: Um, Honestly, besides that, Tennessee went out there and cleaned
- 44:54Speaker 1: up against Jyotek. See you, Vols. I see you, Vols.
- 45:02Speaker 1: Who else did we have here on the scores for
- 45:05Speaker 1: the SEC? I'll say A & M.
- 45:09Speaker 2: A & M. Arizona State came to town.
- 45:10Speaker 1: That was a nice one.
- 45:13Speaker 2: Your boy Cutter Boley, 254 yards, two touchdowns. Ooh. It
- 45:20Speaker 2: just looked like A & M just kept the pressure on. 15-25,
- 45:24Speaker 2: 163-3 tutties for Marcel Reed. They couldn't really run the
- 45:30Speaker 2: ball too well. Terry Bussey led in receiving yards and catches.
- 45:36Speaker 2: Terry Bussey, that hurts. Isaiah Horton, two touchdowns. So it
- 45:41Speaker 2: just looked like when A & M got the ball,
- 45:44Speaker 2: they just scored. And Arizona State didn't do too bad,
- 45:48Speaker 2: but two touchdowns, two picks for Boley. And then they
- 45:55Speaker 2: had four fumbles, too. So, turn the ball over, you're
- 45:58Speaker 2: going to lose. Yeah, that's very true.
- 46:00Speaker 1: Mississippi State cooking Minnesota. Hey, man, I was telling people
- 46:03Speaker 1: Mississippi State was going to go up there and win
- 46:05Speaker 1: that game. They were a favorite, and I saw they
- 46:07Speaker 1: were fair. I was like, oh, they're going to dominate
- 46:09Speaker 1: them on the road. No, there's no way they're going
- 46:11Speaker 1: to dominate them on the road. What they do, Coop?
- 46:14Speaker 1: They dominated them on the road. Like, early. Like, Kamario
- 46:17Speaker 1: Taylor's out there just flinging it. It's kind of insane.
- 46:20Speaker 2: Kamario Taylor, Kamario Taylor, let's, you know, whenever we get
- 46:26Speaker 2: to conference play.
- 46:26Speaker 1: Can we get Libby fired, have him come back and
- 46:28Speaker 1: bring Kamario with him?
- 46:29Speaker 2: No retread. Damn it, you're right.
- 46:34Speaker 1: You're right. Got to keep my philosophy. Stick to my guns.
- 46:40Speaker 1: Got to stick to my guns. Because, yeah.
- 46:42Speaker 2: That's right. He looks– Kamario Taylor looks very good.
- 46:47Speaker 1: He looks insanely good.
- 46:49Speaker 2: And when he hits the pass, it is pretty. And
- 46:53Speaker 2: now let's see what happens when you get him sped
- 46:56Speaker 2: up and it's– you're needing it, you know, in tough times.
- 47:00Speaker 1: In conference play.
- 47:01Speaker 2: Yeah, the conference play.
- 47:03Speaker 1: Let's see what it looks like in conference play itself. Arkansas,
- 47:07Speaker 1: of course, could not do anything against Utah. And my goodness.
- 47:11Speaker 2: Yes.
- 47:13Speaker 1: The two quarterback system they got there, A, if there's
- 47:16Speaker 1: a name that I would say Oklahoma should go ahead
- 47:18Speaker 1: and pick up the phone on, Bird. Bird Ficklin would
- 47:23Speaker 1: be fine. But I don't think, I don't think our
- 47:30Speaker 1: fans would enjoy his game.
- 47:36Speaker 2: That's kind of what we were hoping on Hawkins. But
- 47:41Speaker 2: they did have They did have a dampier bird-like shovel.
- 47:49Speaker 2: It looked pretty dope. Having two quarterbacks in the backfield
- 47:53Speaker 2: can both run around, throw the ball. It looked good.
- 48:02Speaker 2: Everybody else seemed to do the job that they were
- 48:04Speaker 2: supposed to do this week. So now you hope that
- 48:09Speaker 2: there's enough pride in The coaching staff, pride in the players,
- 48:14Speaker 2: get in there and do stuff. Because, yeah, I mean,
- 48:16Speaker 2: there's a lot of guys. You know, I saw some
- 48:18Speaker 2: people comment about David Stone. You know, he has yet
- 48:22Speaker 2: to really show up yet. You know, Taylor Wine's running around.
- 48:29Speaker 2: This will be, I can promise you this, New Mexico
- 48:33Speaker 2: is going to gimmick the hell out of this entire
- 48:35Speaker 2: game with their back.
- 48:37Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Yeah, because they're dealing with injuries at quarterback.
- 48:41Speaker 2: Their starter's gone. Their guy who was supposed to, you know,
- 48:45Speaker 2: help maybe put them in the discussion for, you know,
- 48:48Speaker 2: the group of five representative, he got hurt before the season. And, yeah,
- 48:54Speaker 2: I mean, you're going to have to go out there
- 48:55Speaker 2: and do it.
- 48:57Speaker 1: Yeah, they did well against Central Michigan, so they had
- 49:01Speaker 1: a pretty good game. And it looks like they just
- 49:05Speaker 1: ran the ball like crazy. Luke Moga. is their quarterback.
- 49:12Speaker 1: And so when I look at this, what is the
- 49:14Speaker 1: spread for us against them?
- 49:16Speaker 2: 21. 23.
- 49:20Speaker 1: It's gone up. 23 now. A lot of these have
- 49:23Speaker 1: got them at 23. Let me go to Oklahoma. Let
- 49:31Speaker 1: me see. Actually, Vegas Insider. Let me go see what
- 49:35Speaker 1: the odds are. If we, yeah, it may be, let's
- 49:43Speaker 1: pray it may be high in that game. That is,
- 49:51Speaker 1: that would be interesting if they have us set as a, yeah,
- 49:59Speaker 1: 23 is what most are throwing us at. Goodness, why
- 50:03Speaker 1: are we so high? That's a lot. That is a lot.
- 50:17Speaker 1: Would not have expected it, but that is a lot.
- 50:24Speaker 2: Well, I mean, it's going to be a late night game.
- 50:28Speaker 2: It's 6.30 kickoff, I believe. Yep.
- 50:32Speaker 1: 6.30 central, which is good weather. You're going to be
- 50:36Speaker 1: in town, right?
- 50:38Speaker 2: I think so.
- 50:39Speaker 1: Yes. In fact, you were bringing the family, the kids
- 50:41Speaker 1: and everything, weren't you?
- 50:44Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 50:48Speaker 1: I love that people don't think we'll score 23 against
- 50:50Speaker 1: New Mexico. That's the game we'll definitely score 23 points in.
- 50:54Speaker 1: We'll probably score 30. Yeah. We may actually score a
- 51:03Speaker 1: lot more than that. Our offense will look so potent,
- 51:06Speaker 1: everybody's going to be like, oh my God, what happened?
- 51:09Speaker 2: We fixed it. Why couldn't we do that against Michigan?
- 51:12Speaker 1: Why couldn't we do that last week against Michigan? Our
- 51:16Speaker 1: biggest struggle was it was just, yeah, systemically we were like, yeah,
- 51:20Speaker 1: we were stinking.
- 51:22Speaker 2: And I saw somebody ask, how would you fix the offense?
- 51:25Speaker 2: You need to get to a couple different things that
- 51:30Speaker 2: become your bread and butter. You know, the GC counter
- 51:33Speaker 2: was a big, big, big, big portion of, you know,
- 51:37Speaker 2: what we did with Lincoln Riley here. We have no
- 51:39Speaker 2: identity still outside of John Mateer just kind of going
- 51:45Speaker 2: off schedule. And whereas Arch Manning, you know, needs to
- 51:50Speaker 2: kind of be off schedule to really get freed up.
- 51:53Speaker 2: I just feel like John Mateer needs that bumper bowling.
- 51:57Speaker 2: He needs the structure. So you're going to have to
- 52:02Speaker 2: come out with some kind of a goal, and it's
- 52:03Speaker 2: what do we want to do and what can, you know,
- 52:06Speaker 2: whether it's, whether it's just combo blocks, moving, whatever it
- 52:10Speaker 2: needs to be. But you've got to go in, you've
- 52:13Speaker 2: got to do it well, and you've got to get
- 52:15Speaker 2: your starters off the field with no more injuries this
- 52:18Speaker 2: week because you can't lose another offensive lineman or another linebacker.
- 52:25Speaker 1: Nope. You need to get healthy. Get them healthy for Georgia.
- 52:30Speaker 1: Foge looked like he was a little off. He had
- 52:32Speaker 1: good moments. He had bad moments. Same thing with, well,
- 52:35Speaker 1: Michael actually stepped up pretty quick. So I felt good
- 52:39Speaker 1: about him. I would like Foge on the right. I
- 52:43Speaker 1: would like, Noah Best looked like a freshman. That hurt
- 52:47Speaker 1: my heart. He looked like a freshman. But I would
- 52:49Speaker 1: like Foge on the right with him. Give me EPL
- 52:54Speaker 1: and Fasusi on the left. I think I'm good. That's
- 52:59Speaker 1: a strong foundation that you can continue to build off of.
- 53:02Speaker 1: That way, Bess can prepare himself for center. I need
- 53:05Speaker 1: Heath to be rotating in there, too. I need Heath
- 53:08Speaker 1: to be out there contributing. So, yeah. I would like
- 53:15Speaker 1: us to go out there and we need to pummel
- 53:19Speaker 1: New Mexico. I'm good. I expect the defense to actually
- 53:23Speaker 1: step up again and give us a borderline. If not,
- 53:26Speaker 1: shut out. They better play like that or I'm going
- 53:31Speaker 1: to be pissed.
- 53:33Speaker 2: All right.
- 53:33Speaker 1: I think that that's it. Thanks for all the questions.
