• 0:00
  Speaker 1: All right, we're ground zero here in Ann Arbor. And
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: while on the plane, I did see that Oklahoma got
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: a little bit of good news heading into this game
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: against Michigan. Plus, it appears that there's some depth chart changes.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: So we're going to dive into both of those and
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: kind of let you know all what I found. Before
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: we do that, welcome to Sooner Later Sports, part of
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: Unfair Sports Network. I'm your boy, Jay. Thank y'all for
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: pulling up to the channel. This video is powered by
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: our partners at Price Picks. New users play five, get
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: $ 150 in bonus lineups if you win. So we've got
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: a few things, of course, to chit-chat about. First off,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Pete Thamel from ESPN dropped a little bit of a
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: note going into this game, which, of course, means Oklahoma
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: got themselves possibly some good news. And so let me
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: pull this up for you all. We're going to talk
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: through what we see from Pete Thamel. So this is
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: what Pete Thamel is reporting, that Jake Mikla will return
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: for the Sooners to the starting center. We'll be back
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: to play against Michigan, which is a good thing. I've
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: been hearing that health wise, he's been good. It's been
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: more of a pain tolerance type deal. And he's been
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: working himself back. And the rumors have always been that
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: he was going to play in this game, period. Like
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: I was in his mind that. Michigan was when he
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: was going to make his return. And here we go.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: It was like, he's going to return, but for Susie
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: will not play. It looks like he will miss the game.
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: I believe he is there and he will be dressed out.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: So don't be surprised if you see the cameras pan
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: toward him and he's in his helmet and he's all
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: dressed fully as if he's going to go out there.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: It feels like more of a emergency, you know, break
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: glass in case of emergency type situation when it comes
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: to him. So in that case, foget will return and
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: he's going to play left tackle in the expectation noah
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: best will play right guard with hito zyda rotating with
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: him you still have a marion harris center michael left
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: guard epl so oklahoma brings back majority of its starters
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: and snaps noah best of course is the new guy
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: there and they should be getting back to the way
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: they were playing before so I don't think that that's
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: a problem. This Michigan defense is really good, but Oklahoma
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: should be able to handle them when it comes to
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: just playing in this game, right? They should be able
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: to still get the run established, still be able to
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: push around similar to what they did last year. Because
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: I think last year's Michigan defense is better than this year's.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: This one is a little bit younger, but it's still
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: pretty veteran. So Oklahoma should be able to handle them
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: in a good way. And I think the special teams
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: is going to be the thing that leads to the
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: most victory. So with that, the next thing that we
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: did see, though, is some changes in the depth chart.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: Let's take a look at that. Before we continue, shout
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: out to our partners here at PrizePix, the presenting sponsor
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: of the channel. They got a great promotion going on
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: for new users. If you play five, you'll get $ 150
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: in bonus lineups if you win. And of course, NFL
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: action has begun. So here on Sunday, we're going to
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: look at some CD Lamb action. LeJemire Gibbs will take them.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Derrick Henry definitely better run the ball a bunch against Indy.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Caleb Williams is an interesting one. I don't think I'm
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: going to touch it, but I love this Daniil Hunter one.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Quarter of a sack. Sign me up. Dak, will he
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: score against the Giants? We'll take it. Pick two or
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: more players. Pick more or less of the stats. And again,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: if you hit, you'll get $ 150 in bonus lineup. So
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: we're going to try it out. You can follow me
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: at UnfairSupport. See if you can outdo your boy. And
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: always gamble responsibly. So the next update we got here
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: for the Sooners is they had some changes on the
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: depth chart. So you know that Oklahoma picked up some
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: additional fifth-year players. kids so we had a couple more
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: players on the roster and brody lusk over there at
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: 247 posted that the updated depth chart that came from
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: the game notes for this game added braxton feely the
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: all-conference player from boise state is actually listed right behind
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: bishop thomas and i've actually saw a few people in
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: the comments be like Bishop Thomas had a pretty good
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: game against UTEP, so they were a lot more impressed
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: with him than they thought they would be. But it
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: looks like Braxton Feeley is going to play right there
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: ahead of Tank Carrington. Now, understand this. Braxton Feeley was
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: being courted by a lot of big programs. Miami was
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: all over him. I know A & M was trying
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: to get his attention, but I believe Alabama as well,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: back before last season, before he decided to stay back
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: at Boise State. Because he got a fifth year, Oklahoma
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: was in on him for a bit. He made the trip,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: and it looks like he's going to have a chance
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: to play. On top of him, the other one I noticed,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: we had the linebacker, Jaden Southard, I told you all about.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: He looks like he is listed at right behind James
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Nesta in the wheel position, which tells me he's probably
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: going to play some special teams in this game. That's
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: a good thing. Having experienced bodies to play in the
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: special teams takes out a Owen Heineke's need to go
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: out there, a Cole Sullivan, a Kip Lewis, even a Nesta.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: It'll allow... I mean, Jaden has, I mean, special teams.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: All you do, your job is to go down the field,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: cover area, hit somebody. I think he can handle that
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: as a new player. And so it appears he's going
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: to play some as well. And I expect him to
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: be one of the lead guys on special teams to start.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: And I asked people asking and wondering why Oklahoma went
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: and grabbed some additional players. They wanted some more veteran presence.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: They just want some more older players. There's nothing wrong
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: with that because the defense on the back end, once
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: you get past the two deep, it's very young. It's
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: basically freshmen. And getting some fifth year guys is always
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: a plus. Was it Jim Nagy mentioned it in a presser.
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: He said it's never a negative grabbing some veteran players
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: to join in and help out in these games. So
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: for Oklahoma, they pulled this off, got Feely. So Feely
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: will be in town. They're only for one. They're one
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: year rentals. So only have them for a year. But
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: Feely will be playing. I expect Seely. I don't know.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: He may get some snaps, may get a couple of
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: snaps here or there. to help out. But I definitely
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: do expect to see Jaden Southard definitely on the special
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: teams to start. And then, you know, they may have
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: a package that they have him trained on later on
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: in some of the games, maybe like New Mexico. But
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: the expectation is Sooners are good in that spot. Let
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: me know what y'all think. Hop in the comments. Want
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: to hear your thoughts. Couple of updates. Sounds like things
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: are going in the direction of Sooners. Hope so. Definitely
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: want to hear from you all. All right, shout-out to
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: our partners there at PrizePix. New users play five, get
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: $ 150 in bonus lineups. If you win, we will have
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: a morning after, after the game. May do something right after.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll see how things go. But, yeah,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: y'all enjoy yourselves and have a good weekend. Peace.
