Kirby Smart Called IT! Sooner Fans Feel EXACTLY The Same About Oklahoma Football · Sooner or Later Sports

• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Man, I just can't stop thinking about that stinker that
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Sooners put out there. And really can't get over what
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Kirby Smart had to say. For those of y'all that
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: didn't join the live last night, I'm going to play
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: the video again. But Kirby Smart talked about the game.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: He literally opened his press conference with exactly what Sooner
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: fans hate hearing.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: While also are glad to hear. Because.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: It's really just the microcosm of everything that's happened with
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: this program over the Brent Venables era as of right now,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: and especially what's going on this season. So we'll play that,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: and I'm kind of going to explain my thoughts, especially
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: as I've gone back and rewatched this stuff multiple times
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: and relived the pain of sitting there in Athens.
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Let's dive into that.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Before we do that, welcome to Sooner or Later Sports,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: part of the Unfair Sports Network.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I'm your boy, Jay. Thank y'all for pulling up to
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: the channel. This video is powered by our partners at PrizePix.
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: New users play five.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Get $ 150 in bonus lineups if you win. Kirby Smart
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: opened his presser with exactly what we thought. Like I said,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: if you were on the live, a lot of you
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: did not get to join the live. Totally understand that.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: And I know a lot of you have decided to
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: retire taking in the content.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: I get it. I would too. I'd be stressed.
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: But same time, I can't because... We're going to be
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: doing this, baby, regardless. And we're going to find that
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: silver lining, gosh darn it, somewhere in there. But on
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: the real, right now there isn't. We've got to wait
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: until later this week to really push for that. But
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: when Kirby was talking about how this game went, I'm
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: just like, yeah, man.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. Almost hit him with the girl. Same.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: That's exactly how I felt. Listen to what Kirby said.
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, honestly, I don't think Chris gets the
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: credit for that, right? He's Johnny on the spot. The
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: credit is the pressure. The calls, the effort of the
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: other players, he certainly was in the right spot at
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: the right time, and that's not the guy you want
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: to be chasing because when he picks up a fumble,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: he's hard to catch. But big-time play of the game
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: is Dink's punch out. You know, there's forced fumbles, and
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: then there's gifts. We like to have the saying, dogs
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: don't beat the dogs. You know, the dogs didn't beat
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: the dogs today, but the Sooners, in a lot of ways,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: beat the Sooners. And they gifted us multiple turnovers that
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: could have been touchdowns and the game would have been different.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: So opportunistic, little luck, but proud of Chris for running
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: it back and K.J. 's interception.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: So, yeah, that gets old, doesn't it? Every time you
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: look up, Sooners beating the Sooners. And Brent Venables went
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: through a lot of the tape and talked about it
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: on his show on Sunday. And gosh darn it, it's
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: just so brutal to even think about.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, I don't know. what to think. I don't
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: know what to feel.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know anything at this point because.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: The talent is there. The execution is not.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: And so start of season off, two losses on the road,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: which ain't good. And now you got to prepare yourself
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: for the big game. Let's talk about that a little bit.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Before we do that, though, shout out to our partners
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: here at PrizePix, the presenting sponsor of the channel. They've
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: got some great promos going on right now. Of course,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: they're keeping the good promo going. New users, if you

  Speaker 2: For those that are already playing... They've.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Got some guaranteed picks always popping up. So we can
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: go into my rewards. There's always a player to take
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: advantage of in these games. So we're going to look
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: at tonight's action in the NFL. You probably need to
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: take advantage of Jalen Hurts against the Chicago defense.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Let me see. How did Hurts do?
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: He's been staying under. So 290 here, 264. Yeah, we're
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: going to go ahead and take the less on this one.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Even though I think he may actually end up with more.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Give me Saquon Barkley as well. Roma Dunze, should he
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: put up some numbers? Yeah, I think some passes should
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: happen in this game. I think it's probably going to
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: be mostly Rome. And I don't know if Swift gets the,
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I don't think Swift gets the yards that he thinks
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: he wants to get. But Case Keenum should pass for
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: more than 165. Pick two or more players. Pick more
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: or less in the stats. Boom, you are in there.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: And again, they've always got great rewards and options. Guaranteed picks.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: You make your choice. You pick who you want to
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: be a guaranteed person. and add that and build your lineup.

  Speaker 1: So check them out, use the promo code HMA, our
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: link in the description below. New users play five, you
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: get $ 150 in bonus lineups if you win. Terms and
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: conditions apply as always, gamble responsibly. So now Oklahoma has
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: to prepare for the rivalry matchup that historically the bad team.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Finds a way to win.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know about this one right now because we
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: haven't proven that we could just overcome the badness that
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: we have when it.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: Comes to playing. But again, The Sooners beat the Sooners.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: It's amazing that Brent Venables has found a way to
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: break two quarterbacks.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: I cannot get over that.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: That has been stuck in my brain for a bit.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: And Kirby pointing out how we're beating ourselves, it's like
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: there's a fear of ourselves.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Being successful each game. And so I don't get it.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: I don't get how.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: It.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Goes like that.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: And then, of course, Brent explains away in the presser
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: of why they didn't make the change at the half
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: because it.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Felt like it was the best. I don't get it.
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I don't get it because in this game against UTEP,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: y'all went out there and gave us the type of
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: offense we hoped for. A bunch of 12, 13 personnel,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: a lot of pushing, a lot of work in.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: And you feel good. You start the game off fast, early,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: and you get it.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: And then boom, you just forget how to play football
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: from there.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: But the New.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Mexico game was really the example of Sooners beating Sooners.
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: We kept doing stuff to beat ourselves. And it was
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: all in our face of we're just beating the crap
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: out of ourselves. And there's no reason that we should
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: be beating ourselves the way we are because the talent
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: is there. We've seen the defense do stuff. We've seen
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: the defense play. We've had big plays. Like there was
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: layered passes. There were explosive plays.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: That John was doing and all of it just falls apart.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: So to me, as we prepare for the big matchup
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: of the next two weeks, changes have to happen. Talked
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: about it on today's episode of Locked On. Sooners really
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: went in depth on that, but you got to make
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: some adjustments and changes as far as personnel coaches.
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: You got to make some moves. You've got to. Like
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: there's no explaining away this. There's no... Oh, we could, no, nope, nope, nope.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: We need change.
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: And I am a still stout supporter of Brent Venables.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: He's just been really bad in his latest offensive coordinators.
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: Some would say he did a bad job of hiring
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Jeff Levy too, even though Jeff Levy's offenses were dominant,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: like really good. But you can't win in college football
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: without winning. solid quarterback play. You don't have to have great.
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: Go watch Will Howard when he was at Ohio State
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: and he won the natty.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Go look at J.J.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: McCarthy in Michigan when they won the natty. You don't
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: need exceptional quarterback play. We say Stetson Bennett in his
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: first stint with Georgia. Second year, he went God mode.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: But you need a quarterback with confidence and a quarterback
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: that's going to make the plays that need to be
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: made and not think that they have to do everything.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: That is the issue I'm feeling here with now John Materia.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: It feels like he thinks he needs to do everything.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: And I also feel like that's what Ben Arbuckle feels
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: as well. And that to me is where you're like, yep,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: it's time to make that change. Adjustments gotta be made.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: You can't have both thinking that they can do everything
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: because it's not how this is ever gonna work. You
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: will not be successful in this conference doing that unless
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: you have a dude that's an exceptional athlete. And I'm sorry,
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: John is not. John is not better than the linebackers
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: in most of the teams in this conference. He is
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: a strong quarterback, which means that he can break tackles,
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: which is what is really good in the pocket. But
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: design runs, no. There was one design run that I
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: wanted to throw something on the field. I almost took
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: the cap off my water bottle and threw it, but
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I didn't.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: I was respectful.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: But in my head, I wanted to. Because everything happens
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: in my head. It doesn't happen in real life because
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: I know better. I was raised better than that. But
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I was mad.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: Like, what?
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: And you've seen a few of those boneheaded decisions, which
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: is why I say change must happen for us to
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: move forward. If you change head coaches, if you all
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: think a head coach needs to be changed, I want
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: you to give me an option of who's going to
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: leave their job to come here. Because I'm going to
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: tell you now, I've seen some people say, go after
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Kurt Cignetti. Mark Cuban's not going to let that happen
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: in Indiana. Indiana has like the most alumni in the country.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: And I think they got like one of the highest
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: amount of like rich alum in the country. They got
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: money and they're going to spend it to keep Cignetti
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: there as long as he keeps winning. If he ends
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: up turning down, they've been looking a little flawed this year.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Y'all going to be just as mad at him too.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: It's really hard. It's really hard.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: They got to go find an offensive coordinator and they've
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: got to find a quarterback. You're not winning in college
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: football without a quarterback.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: That is solid.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: We'll see. Let me know what y'all think.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Hop in the comments. Want to hear your thoughts. I
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: know a lot of you are upset. Rightfully so. Because
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: that was stinky. Definitely want to hear from you all.
