- 0:29Speaker 1: think we deserve it. God di'n give us five anyway,
- 0:31Speaker 1: baby gifted. So on today's episode, we got so many
- 0:36Speaker 1: things to break down from. You know, I guess you
- 0:39Speaker 1: could say our first one of the year, right, our
- 0:41Speaker 1: first shutout. We're gonna talk about what that actually means
- 0:44Speaker 1: for the Sooners going forward. We're gonna take a look
- 0:47Speaker 1: at the polls because the Sooners dropped and so did
- 0:50Speaker 1: the Texas Longhorns. We're gonna also wrap things up going
- 0:54Speaker 1: around the SEC and kind of what our schedule looks
- 0:57Speaker 1: like going forward, because Coop, if you really think about it,
- 1:00Speaker 1: is it really a gauntlet? Coop? Happy Sunday?
- 1:03Speaker 2: My man?
- 1:04Speaker 1: How are you doing them this fine Sunday evening?
- 1:09Speaker 2: Jay? I am I'm spectacular. It's a little rushing around
- 1:12Speaker 2: had my nephew's birthday party at Incredible Pizza. That's a
- 1:18Speaker 2: that's a that's something. But but yeah, man, it's it's
- 1:24Speaker 2: pretty good. I do, uh, I do think that this
- 1:29Speaker 2: this usually is a very very exciting time of the year, right,
- 1:33Speaker 2: Like though, you text Sweet Hits and you're like, maybe
- 1:36Speaker 2: it's gonna give us a little fall feeling outside, but
- 1:38Speaker 2: it's gonna be like ninety tomorrow, so maybe by Monday
- 1:41Speaker 2: or Tuesday, I'll start to feel you know, I'll start
- 1:45Speaker 2: to feel it. Because it was hot. It was hot
- 1:47Speaker 2: out there on Saturday.
- 1:48Speaker 1: Oh I bet it was. And I'm glad that you
- 1:50Speaker 1: all went out there to the game. You all endured
- 1:52Speaker 1: a lot of it. I know that most of you
- 1:54Speaker 1: did not survive the entire game. So we're not gonna
- 1:56Speaker 1: pretend like, yeah, we're actually there during the heat of
- 2:00Speaker 1: the game for some I know Coop was there the
- 2:02Speaker 1: entire time because him and the daughter family got some
- 2:05Speaker 1: autographs and stuff. So it's beautiful to see the players.
- 2:08Speaker 1: Michael Hawkins did get his QB one treatment. The fans
- 2:13Speaker 1: were there for him and in supportive, so we do
- 2:16Speaker 1: appreciate all of that. Yeah, man, we've got to go
- 2:21Speaker 1: ahead and break down kind of what went down in
- 2:26Speaker 1: this game. So, of course, as y'all know, Sooners one
- 2:30Speaker 1: forty four to zero got our first goose egg of
- 2:33Speaker 1: the season, which should have been our third, but it's okay.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Interceptions didn't allow for us to not get that. And
- 2:40Speaker 1: because of the way this team played. Shout out to
- 2:42Speaker 1: our guy rds, their sports, get your behinds in the water.
- 2:50Speaker 1: All the things and proclamations that I asked for we
- 2:53Speaker 1: did not get. Yes, Ginny, please thank you for reminding
- 2:56Speaker 1: of this. We did not rush for three hundred yards.
- 2:58Speaker 1: We really got three hundred yards a total offense in general,
- 3:01Speaker 1: but it did feel like one hundred that it was
- 3:07Speaker 1: like the Illinois State game. It felt like we were
- 3:09Speaker 1: really you know, getting everybody warmed up. Cool when you
- 3:14Speaker 1: looked at this game, how'd you feel?
- 3:18Speaker 2: Uh, you know, coming out of the game, I thought, man,
- 3:22Speaker 2: yet again, you throw out a goose egg, it's your
- 3:26Speaker 2: first one. You end up two to zero or plus
- 3:29Speaker 2: two on the turnover margin, and there's still a load
- 3:36Speaker 2: to coach up. And then, uh, you know, went back
- 3:40Speaker 2: and rewatched the game and I got a lot of
- 3:43Speaker 2: thoughts because man, we scored in our was it seven
- 3:48Speaker 2: of our first eight possessions. Yeah, and we had like
- 3:52Speaker 2: three other possessions. I mean, like you had three possessions
- 3:55Speaker 2: in the first quarter or was it two two in
- 3:58Speaker 2: the first quarter three? And so you're like, what you know?
- 4:00Speaker 2: And but then like and then also I was like, man,
- 4:02Speaker 2: there's a lot of like wide receivers a little rut
- 4:05Speaker 2: running kind of open, and I was had concerns about that,
- 4:08Speaker 2: and so going back and rewatching it, and I'm like,
- 4:10Speaker 2: every single time that I saw something goofy happen. It
- 4:12Speaker 2: was three guys who hadn't played on the same field,
- 4:14Speaker 2: you know, together yet the season. So it's like one
- 4:18Speaker 2: of the most coachable you know, forty or four pounds,
- 4:21Speaker 2: you know, forty four point shutouts you would ever you know,
- 4:25Speaker 2: probably seen. So I mean it was sleepy. I mean, Jay,
- 4:30Speaker 2: I'll just start out by saying it was a very
- 4:32Speaker 2: very sleepy game. I don't know if I've ever sat
- 4:35Speaker 2: down during play before at a game in my life,
- 4:40Speaker 2: and I bet I sat thirty three thirty forty percent
- 4:42Speaker 2: of the game.
- 4:43Speaker 1: Which so it was not a bad thing. I guess
- 4:46Speaker 1: you could say it was what you would have expected
- 4:48Speaker 1: out of a game against Kent State. So when you
- 4:50Speaker 1: look at the numbers itself, we had one hundred and
- 4:54Speaker 1: eighty five rushing yards, one hundred and seventy passing, three
- 4:57Speaker 1: hundred and fifty five total yards in a game. And again,
- 5:01Speaker 1: it really really did feel like we were just out
- 5:04Speaker 1: there going through a lot of emotions. This was one
- 5:08Speaker 1: of those, as you said, is a coachable game because
- 5:11Speaker 1: the film shows you that you kind of just played
- 5:15Speaker 1: down to the competition, like, hey, we're gonna blow them out.
- 5:18Speaker 1: Let's just do what we need to do to get
- 5:20Speaker 1: right there at the spread and keep going about our day.
- 5:23Speaker 1: We did. The fact that we got the shutout is
- 5:26Speaker 1: what was most important.
- 5:28Speaker 2: That's very very very much, and I mean Kent State
- 5:32Speaker 2: helped us out with that. I mean they went for
- 5:33Speaker 2: like fourth and four and that might have been one
- 5:36Speaker 2: of the only times of the whole week or sorry
- 5:39Speaker 2: weekend that like the crowd actually woke up just around
- 5:43Speaker 2: the entire stadium was to get after him on that
- 5:46Speaker 2: fourth down. And yeah, I mean it's I will say this,
- 5:52Speaker 2: on offense, it felt like there was no pace. It
- 5:56Speaker 2: felt very scrimmagy, and you know, having a bunch of
- 6:01Speaker 2: guys out there playing, you know, I'll have my critiques
- 6:04Speaker 2: on the offense when we want to do that part, Jay,
- 6:06Speaker 2: but I just can't see how Like it's pretty quiet
- 6:10Speaker 2: middle of the day, like the defensive line, those guys
- 6:16Speaker 2: probably the defensive line and anybody playing special teams. Those
- 6:20Speaker 2: are the MVPs of the day. But everybody else was
- 6:23Speaker 2: just kind of like, we know what this is.
- 6:26Speaker 1: Yep, exactly and you can tell what the players out
- 6:29Speaker 1: in their minds frame was. I'll say two things happen
- 6:33Speaker 1: in this game that's most important one. For the most part,
- 6:39Speaker 1: we left this game unscathed. Keep a prayer up for
- 6:42Speaker 1: our guy Kntes Lewis. It sounds like he is walking
- 6:45Speaker 1: around moving. They took him off site just for a
- 6:48Speaker 1: precautionary but he's good back bothering them. I think I've
- 6:53Speaker 1: heard one of the insiders mention it as something spying related,
- 6:56Speaker 1: that that was the concern if anything. But all tests
- 6:59Speaker 1: were negative for him, so that's a good thing. He's
- 7:03Speaker 1: walking around and everything. I know everybody's freaking out about
- 7:06Speaker 1: the brick back there that's been there for like seventy
- 7:08Speaker 1: five plus years, first time anything's ever happened, and unfortunate.
- 7:13Speaker 1: It's very unfortunate. Football is of Island Sport will keep
- 7:16Speaker 1: praying for him. But the thing is he's good, he's
- 7:21Speaker 1: moving around. He's probably not gonna play this weekend, which
- 7:23Speaker 1: is good. Give him some time to take a break.
- 7:25Speaker 1: But you got Giovanni back, and that catch he made
- 7:29Speaker 1: was pretty darn impressive.
- 7:30Speaker 2: So he's like, hey, welcome back, welcome back. Get hung up.
- 7:36Speaker 2: I mean it's like his it's kind of like the
- 7:41Speaker 2: he stopped his body, his legs. He kind of looked
- 7:44Speaker 2: like a cartoon like his ass was going out his
- 7:47Speaker 2: legs and his you know, arms are going forward, and
- 7:50Speaker 2: then the defensive back was going in a different direction.
- 7:52Speaker 2: So it just looked all kinds of funky.
- 7:54Speaker 1: On it looked like if you go back and play
- 7:57Speaker 1: college NCAA football two thousand in like fourteen, and the
- 8:02Speaker 1: game glitches on a tackle that's caught in mid air
- 8:05Speaker 1: and you're just kind of hanging. That's what it looks like.
- 8:08Speaker 1: A video game. Yeah, catch and fall, and you're like, wait,
- 8:11Speaker 1: he really caught it and I got credit for it,
- 8:13Speaker 1: And that's exactly what it looked like. But Giavanni's back.
- 8:17Speaker 1: So you get a receiver. You unfortunately lose one, but
- 8:19Speaker 1: you gain a receiver. Besides that, you're basically unscathed. And
- 8:23Speaker 1: so let's jump right into we got a talk position ball,
- 8:29Speaker 1: because that's really the most important. Let's start with the
- 8:33Speaker 1: one that deserves all the flowers. We're gonna start defense
- 8:37Speaker 1: before we do that. Though we do that, shout to

- 9:26Speaker 1: the channel. Subscribe rate review give us five stars. We
- 9:29Speaker 1: definitely need to give flowers to the most important side
- 9:32Speaker 1: of the ball right now. In this defense, Coop. We
- 9:36Speaker 1: gave up in this game a total of one hundred
- 9:39Speaker 1: and thirty five yards, one big play, one big catch
- 9:42Speaker 1: which was a thirty two yarder, well, a thirty five
- 9:45Speaker 1: yarder which was I'm gonna not lie. That was a
- 9:47Speaker 1: very impressive catch thirty four yarder by Rdelle Banks. Like
- 9:51Speaker 1: literally Jordan was draped all over him and somehow this
- 9:54Speaker 1: dude need to catch matd Props to him being able
- 9:57Speaker 1: to figure that out. But we we we made life
- 10:00Speaker 1: difficult for them, only giving up one hundred and twelve
- 10:03Speaker 1: passing yards and seventeen rushing yards in his game. It's
- 10:07Speaker 1: basically everything you could ask for from his defense. And
- 10:10Speaker 1: if there's an MVP on the defensive side of the ball,
- 10:13Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna give it to David Stone. That dude
- 10:16Speaker 1: showed the flipout. Congratulations dogged that dude. We got what
- 10:22Speaker 1: we wanted. Man, It's.
- 10:28Speaker 2: I mean, David Stone is he's at a level right now,
- 10:33Speaker 2: Jay to where I made a joke in you know,
- 10:36Speaker 2: joke twitter wise. I mean it really wasn't that big
- 10:38Speaker 2: of a joke, but I said, you know, he's been
- 10:40Speaker 2: living in the opponent's backfield more than you know, more
- 10:43Speaker 2: often than the running back. And I mean, dudes, literally
- 10:48Speaker 2: the you know, highest ranked defensive lineman in college football
- 10:52Speaker 2: right now. It's like every single play he get Like
- 10:55Speaker 2: I think at one point he blew up a play,
- 10:57Speaker 2: he into the back into the backfield to where the
- 11:00Speaker 2: whole play was just toast immediately and our Mason wrapped
- 11:05Speaker 2: up the running back and David was mad and he
- 11:08Speaker 2: like chased back the guy and started pulling him backwards
- 11:11Speaker 2: even further and then was like slapping himself in the helmet.
- 11:14Speaker 2: And I'm like, bro, I mean the whole play, I mean,
- 11:19Speaker 2: you you killed it faster than a whistle from the
- 11:21Speaker 2: reth So yeah, I mean, just an absolute stud stone
- 11:26Speaker 2: every single week is just continuing, uh to you know,
- 11:30Speaker 2: just to show us that he's dependable. You know, that
- 11:34Speaker 2: line was great and they didn't run out Jaden, he's
- 11:38Speaker 2: a little dinged up. Gave him some extra break breath
- 11:42Speaker 2: and then Don Williams either.
- 11:45Speaker 1: Yeah, you didn't have to play either one of your
- 11:48Speaker 1: start linemen. And then you get our Mason Thomas out
- 11:50Speaker 1: here calls and fumbles. We got two turnovers too. We
- 11:53Speaker 1: got a fumble recovery for a touchdown. We got a
- 11:57Speaker 1: interception in the game, something that we have desperately needed
- 12:02Speaker 1: to have. We got the last back.
- 12:03Speaker 2: When it comes to that, the last team in college football,
- 12:07Speaker 2: last to get a turnover. It's like you look at
- 12:10Speaker 2: the stats and it's like you saw like a bunch
- 12:13Speaker 2: of stats and then it's like somebody was joking and
- 12:15Speaker 2: threw up some sarcasm at the end of it. But yeah,
- 12:19Speaker 2: I mean, it was just it was great. You know.
- 12:24Speaker 2: I gotta say that Marcus Strong just more and more
- 12:28Speaker 2: of him. It just continues to show that he's it.
- 12:30Speaker 2: And then Jay our boy Crazy Danny got himself a
- 12:35Speaker 2: sack too.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Koye got his first career sack. I posted
- 12:38Speaker 1: that on my socials. It was beautiful, Jinny. I actually,
- 12:41Speaker 1: if you go follow me on x or to search
- 12:44Speaker 1: on there, I posted the video of Giovanni's catch. I
- 12:48Speaker 1: have to find it and see if I can find
- 12:49Speaker 1: one that's not licensed so we can watch it, but
- 12:52Speaker 1: Giovanni getting the catch, but no Daniel Koye, Danny Phantom
- 12:56Speaker 1: got his first sack. Yeah, I'm getting the emotional hold up.
- 13:03Speaker 2: It's it's like I feel, you know, I feel like
- 13:06Speaker 2: with Danny is like a proud uncle. And yeah, I'm
- 13:08Speaker 2: gonna go ahead. I'm gonna go ahead and take the credit.
- 13:10Speaker 2: I'm going ahead take the credit taking my daughter. And
- 13:13Speaker 2: this is a fun story for everybody. But we got
- 13:16Speaker 2: to for the walk and there was just like one
- 13:19Speaker 2: open spot, and I was like, this actually might be
- 13:20Speaker 2: pretty dope. This might be right right where the first
- 13:23Speaker 2: bus comes off. BV gets off the bus, and I
- 13:28Speaker 2: think two people kind of got a little nervous and
- 13:29Speaker 2: they stepped back, and so my daughter's just right out
- 13:31Speaker 2: there and got the fist bump with BV and and
- 13:35Speaker 2: she turned around She's like, wait, that was coach Finnibles
- 13:37Speaker 2: and I said, yes, it was Danny. A couple of
- 13:40Speaker 2: minutes later, double Back reached back to you know, Pat
- 13:43Speaker 2: me and and uh and so I think I was
- 13:46Speaker 2: the lucky charm and so I'm just gonna go ahead
- 13:47Speaker 2: and throw that out there.
- 13:48Speaker 1: I love that. I love that, Hank, you were not blind.
- 13:52Speaker 1: But in a way you are. They did play. They
- 13:55Speaker 1: played nineteen snaps, so they didn't play much. That's and
- 13:58Speaker 1: that's kind of the point that you made, Coop, is
- 14:00Speaker 1: we didn't really play much of our starters. We played
- 14:02Speaker 1: thirty five defensive players had at least one snap. Twenty
- 14:07Speaker 1: six had at least ten snaps. We rotated a lot.
- 14:11Speaker 1: Stone led the way with thirty two STAPs, him and Devine, Jordan,
- 14:13Speaker 1: We Kenda Adobe who's getting himself worked back into game shape,
- 14:19Speaker 1: Grayson Halton as well. G Baby gave us some twenty seven.
- 14:24Speaker 1: So you got a lot of snaps from a lot
- 14:29Speaker 1: of different people. Our Mason Timas of course, let the
- 14:31Speaker 1: way in the grades. But we finished fourteen pressures six
- 14:36Speaker 1: They counted a six sacks, which means we had five
- 14:38Speaker 1: total because we had two half stacks half sacks. A
- 14:41Speaker 1: PFF doesn't do half sacks. We didn't hit the quarterback,
- 14:45Speaker 1: but we had eight hurries. But the crazy thing to
- 14:48Speaker 1: go along with that, though, is we had thirteen tackles
- 14:53Speaker 1: for loss in this game. Yeah, thirteen like the BB's
- 15:00Speaker 1: that I always remind y'all of, is the most important
- 15:02Speaker 1: one in my personal opinion. The fact that we had
- 15:04Speaker 1: thirteen tackles for loss. This team is doing exactly what
- 15:09Speaker 1: we was hoping for. And so Cooper kind of want
- 15:11Speaker 1: to point this out as well as we talk about
- 15:13Speaker 1: the flowers this defense deserved because they'll be doing it
- 15:15Speaker 1: all season. Now. I know what some of y'all gonna say, Oh,
- 15:18Speaker 1: who we played doesn't matter the timmybody's played about the
- 15:23Speaker 1: same type of teams. Michigan's been putting up numbers on folks,
- 15:26Speaker 1: Auburn was putting on numbers on folks before they got
- 15:28Speaker 1: to us. Kent, Stay, of course, was not Temple has
- 15:31Speaker 1: been putting up numbers, and so it's Illinois state against
- 15:33Speaker 1: their competition that's not named Oklahoma. This defense has providing
- 15:37Speaker 1: you everything that Brent Vinibles promised us. And this goes
- 15:40Speaker 1: back to my whole piece of this is why I
- 15:44Speaker 1: have been a stout supporter of Brent Vinables. Shout out
- 15:50Speaker 1: to Mike howk the he's basically the sid, the guy
- 15:53Speaker 1: that basically handles all of media relations and stuff. He's
- 15:57Speaker 1: an Associate Athletic Director at Oklahoma, Senior Associate ad Communications
- 16:02Speaker 1: and Digital Strategy. He does all of that stuff for Oklahoma,
- 16:07Speaker 1: and he put this out there preventables in March of
- 16:12Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Why am I going to call the defense.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Because I'm good at good at it.
- 16:19Speaker 1: Our defense that's is This is what our defense looks
- 16:22Speaker 1: like in all of the key stats going into Texas.
- 16:27Speaker 1: I want you to take a second and look at this.
- 16:29Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a sip and then I'm gonnass it
- 16:32Speaker 1: to coop in a second. But I want you to
- 16:33Speaker 1: just look at it.
- 16:39Speaker 2: Jay, I like that the only double digit number that
- 16:42Speaker 2: you see is a stat line. It's not even a ranking.
- 16:47Speaker 2: The opponent play is of ten yards plus. Mister Saban,
- 16:53Speaker 2: I've called you out once. I'm calling you out again.
- 16:57Speaker 2: It starts with the line is the best defensive line
- 16:59Speaker 2: in the country. I think it is not even up
- 17:02Speaker 2: for debate anymore. It is full of chaos, It is deep.
- 17:08Speaker 2: There are guys who are still still learning the game.
- 17:12Speaker 2: I mean, this is true sophomores, true sophomores. You know,
- 17:15Speaker 2: you've got a couple of older guys on the edge.
- 17:18Speaker 2: But Taylor Wine didn't have a lot of stats out there.
- 17:22Speaker 2: But Taylor Wine was causing chaos. Danny comes in, has
- 17:25Speaker 2: himself a violent sack. Jay. It's it's beautiful. Like you
- 17:30Speaker 2: look at it and you're like, man sixth in opponent
- 17:33Speaker 2: pass completion percentage, Well, why are we six j because
- 17:38Speaker 2: everybody throws, I mean if they didn't, if they didn't
- 17:42Speaker 2: throw behind the line of scrimmage for quick, easy completions
- 17:45Speaker 2: and then they get blown up for tackles for loss.
- 17:47Speaker 2: So I'd like to see, like what's the you know,
- 17:50Speaker 2: we also I think we lead in in whereas a
- 17:52Speaker 2: passing passing yards there you go passing yards per attempt second,
- 17:58Speaker 2: Like people just state they don't want to throw it
- 18:00Speaker 2: downfield on us, they don't have time for it. That's
- 18:03Speaker 2: not good. That's not a safe game plan. So Brent
- 18:07Speaker 2: was brought in to change this. This defense was a
- 18:10Speaker 2: laughing stock of college football. We week in week out
- 18:14Speaker 2: for years, and they're young. I mean, there's an argument
- 18:20Speaker 2: that they're gonna be better next year.
- 18:22Speaker 1: Very much. It's very much there because there's a good
- 18:25Speaker 1: chance majority of this defense is back for one more year.
- 18:29Speaker 1: But look listen to me there and Coop, you mentioned
- 18:31Speaker 1: this total defense in the nation right now, are average
- 18:34Speaker 1: is one hundred ninety three yards per game that we're
- 18:36Speaker 1: giving up. That is ranked what number one in the country.
- 18:41Speaker 1: Passing defense, we are giving up one hundred and eighteen
- 18:44Speaker 1: point four passing yards per game. That is what number
- 18:47Speaker 1: two in the country country, not SEC We've only played
- 18:53Speaker 1: five games. Some teams have even played six, but this
- 18:55Speaker 1: is the average. We're right behind Nebraska on that one
- 19:00Speaker 1: rushing defense. We are giving up seventy four point six
- 19:03Speaker 1: yards per game. That is ranked number five in the country.
- 19:09Speaker 1: Could we literally are doing everything that we've hoped that
- 19:12Speaker 1: we would get out of a Brent Vnables defense. And
- 19:14Speaker 1: I think the one also it's on here tackles for
- 19:17Speaker 1: loss per game. We're averaging ten of those per game,
- 19:19Speaker 1: which is number one in the country. If y'all wondered
- 19:23Speaker 1: if we were gonna be SEC ready, this is literally
- 19:26Speaker 1: what Brent Vinnibles was building towards. For us to be
- 19:28Speaker 1: SEC ready is to do this kind of stuff and
- 19:31Speaker 1: key things. You've got to do this against good teams.
- 19:33Speaker 1: Michigan is ranked right now, We're gonna top rank polls
- 19:36Speaker 1: and stuff in a bit. They're fifteenth in the country
- 19:37Speaker 1: right now. Their losses us, they're still bottling. They're winning
- 19:42Speaker 1: their games. They're playing the games that are in front
- 19:45Speaker 1: of them, and they're winning them. The gauntlet for us
- 19:47Speaker 1: will come, but the gauntlets also want to receive us
- 19:49Speaker 1: as well. The good thing is, overall the numbers are great. Yeah,
- 19:56Speaker 1: you're gonna The thing is when you play an aggressive
- 19:58Speaker 1: type a style of defense, you're gonna give up an
- 20:01Speaker 1: occasional big play here and there. But the point is
- 20:05Speaker 1: the overall number doesn't kill you. You're not giving up
- 20:09Speaker 1: ten big plays. You're not giving up fifteen big plays, right,
- 20:15Speaker 1: not per game.
- 20:18Speaker 2: No sustained drives, You're not giving up sustained drives, like
- 20:22Speaker 2: and if it's if it was like a BV was
- 20:24Speaker 2: giving up three or four explosive plays per game that
- 20:27Speaker 2: led to points, Like, yeah, but what was Auburn scored seventeen? Right,
- 20:35Speaker 2: they're leader in the clubhouse with points scored against this team,
- 20:40Speaker 2: And I'm gonna go ahead and throw it out, like,
- 20:43Speaker 2: you know, six of the points were because we turned
- 20:47Speaker 2: the ball over and put the team in the red zone.
- 20:51Speaker 2: So it's you. The stats are based off of Jay, Right,
- 20:56Speaker 2: the teams that we've played up to this point, and
- 21:01Speaker 2: you got two you got two Power four teams in there.
- 21:05Speaker 2: On top of it.
- 21:07Speaker 1: I was told that those teams we're gonna be this
- 21:11Speaker 1: up that we were not gonna be ready for those teams.
- 21:14Speaker 1: This is what I was told. I've been told this
- 21:16Speaker 1: by some Sooner fans who were very pessimistic. I was
- 21:18Speaker 1: told by the national media. I was told a lot
- 21:21Speaker 1: of nationalia media also said, Okloma's gonna be five and
- 21:24Speaker 1: oh walking into this Red River game. But I don't
- 21:25Speaker 1: think anybody expected these statistics.
- 21:29Speaker 2: And listen, I think that we expected this, and Jay,
- 21:33Speaker 2: there's an argument to say that we haven't even played
- 21:36Speaker 2: a complete game on defense yet. And on top of that,
- 21:42Speaker 2: still this is a defense that's doing this with some
- 21:45Speaker 2: offensive struggles.
- 21:48Speaker 1: I mean better than last year, but it's still middle
- 21:51Speaker 1: of the pack. Yeah, we're doing it and so very
- 21:54Speaker 1: special way and turnovers we just.
- 21:58Speaker 2: Got yeah, only two turnovers. And then on top of it,
- 22:03Speaker 2: the there's a lot and if you go back and
- 22:07Speaker 2: watch our shows and the you know, leading up into
- 22:09Speaker 2: the season, we said a lot of this stuff was
- 22:11Speaker 2: going to happen. You know, you have a team who
- 22:16Speaker 2: continues to these are now bv's guys. These are guys
- 22:20Speaker 2: who are coming in and you're going and you know,
- 22:23Speaker 2: selecting a few of these guys out of the portal.
- 22:27Speaker 2: You also have killed me. There's so much I want
- 22:35Speaker 2: to say to that, but yeah, you've got the right
- 22:39Speaker 2: now like starters on the defense, and you got Kendall
- 22:42Speaker 2: Daniels out of the transfer portal. You got Marvin Jones Jr.
- 22:46Speaker 2: And he's I mean he's fifty to fifty starter.
- 22:48Speaker 1: Right. Did he did he play in this game? I
- 22:50Speaker 1: don't remember seeing him.
- 22:51Speaker 2: He played a little bit early, a little bit earlier.
- 22:54Speaker 1: Okay, very light, yeah, very light first half.
- 22:56Speaker 2: But you were rolling in. I mean you got Eli Bowen,
- 23:00Speaker 2: he rolled out there, you know, to start off the game,
- 23:03Speaker 2: you were rolling devange. I mean, listen, so many different
- 23:06Speaker 2: I mean you you had so many different combinations of
- 23:09Speaker 2: players out there that Omaron Robinson was in the stat line.
- 23:13Speaker 2: I mean you're rolling in your number five safety, your
- 23:17Speaker 2: five and six corners, and I you know, I want
- 23:20Speaker 2: to throw out another another name, that is I think
- 23:26Speaker 2: Owen Heineke needs to really be recognized in a faction
- 23:30Speaker 2: that we have kind of given him as flowers right
- 23:33Speaker 2: to this point. I got to catch up with him
- 23:34Speaker 2: after the game. He was talking with my daughter. He
- 23:37Speaker 2: couldn't hold his helmet and sign the autograph because of
- 23:39Speaker 2: the broken thumb. He shared with me the story about that,
- 23:43Speaker 2: and I was like, dude, you really try to run
- 23:45Speaker 2: back in there with like a bone sticking out of
- 23:47Speaker 2: your thumb. He said they called for a substitution and
- 23:50Speaker 2: I was just going to make it happen. And I
- 23:54Speaker 2: was like, dude, a broken thumb, so yeah, and he
- 23:57Speaker 2: just kind of smiled, and so I was like, I
- 24:00Speaker 2: started thinking about that on the way home, and I
- 24:02Speaker 2: was just like, I think he's kind of taken that.
- 24:05Speaker 2: Like Stevie wants me to say it, it's competitive depth,
- 24:11Speaker 2: but I think Owen has taken that like just energy
- 24:15Speaker 2: leader just I'm going to always give it one hundred
- 24:18Speaker 2: and ten percent since Stutsman left, But this defense knows that,
- 24:23Speaker 2: like there's everything on the table for them. They can
- 24:26Speaker 2: do whatever they want to do, and they still have
- 24:30Speaker 2: a lot of improvement to go. And that's what's crazy
- 24:32Speaker 2: to say.
- 24:33Speaker 1: Yeah, and you mentioned it, we haven't played a complete
- 24:35Speaker 1: game on the defensive side of ball yet. No, we've
- 24:37Speaker 1: given up some big plays. The way that this defense
- 24:41Speaker 1: is building, Hank said it best. This is what BV
- 24:44Speaker 1: said we're gonna have. We're gonna promise an aggressive, attacking
- 24:46Speaker 1: and relentless defense. The collateral damage to that is that
- 24:50Speaker 1: you're occasionally gonna leave people wide open. Why because you're
- 24:53Speaker 1: sending enough of a force that the numbers won't always
- 24:56Speaker 1: be in your favor. You know what the good thing
- 24:57Speaker 1: is too, though, that defensive line is get into the quarterback.
- 25:01Speaker 1: Teams have already been pointing out when they watch the
- 25:03Speaker 1: film what happens we are in the backfield. So I
- 25:07Speaker 1: totally understand that you feel like there's no overconfidence that
- 25:09Speaker 1: should be here whomever you are, But I think you
- 25:12Speaker 1: have to understand that that is the goal. Because this
- 25:16Speaker 1: defensive line can go get the quarterback. We ain't concerned
- 25:19Speaker 1: about that. The quarterbacks are gonna struggle to get those
- 25:22Speaker 1: passes off. Why because they got dudes in their face
- 25:26Speaker 1: like we've got. And the good thing is we're going
- 25:30Speaker 1: up against right now. I guess you could say the
- 25:33Speaker 1: luck that we've drawn because I was told that it
- 25:35Speaker 1: wasn't gonna be lucky, it was gonna be so tough.
- 25:37Speaker 1: That the quarterbacks that we've drawn have not been as
- 25:40Speaker 1: good as people have anticipated they will be when they
- 25:42Speaker 1: play us. So that's just an advantage for us. So
- 25:45Speaker 1: we're gonna continue to pad our stats by having good
- 25:50Speaker 1: defensive play. So I actually expect that to continue because
- 25:53Speaker 1: after I saw what Florida did to Texas. Ain't no
- 25:56Speaker 1: excuse for Dom Jaden Stone, g baby Our, Mason Thomas,
- 26:03Speaker 1: Marvin Jones, Junior Taylor Wane, pgat Abira, Daniel Koye. There's
- 26:08Speaker 1: no excuse for him not being a backfield danger every play.
- 26:11Speaker 2: It's they've got the the the great you know, as
- 26:16Speaker 2: far as like rush, you know, rush in the passer.
- 26:18Speaker 2: We got the highest sack rate in the in college
- 26:21Speaker 2: football and Florida, Florida was like one hundred and thirty
- 26:28Speaker 2: first or something like that.
- 26:29Speaker 1: They were bad. They were bad.
- 26:31Speaker 2: They and and on top of that, we also have
- 26:35Speaker 2: the highest pressure rate. So when you throw that pressure
- 26:39Speaker 2: out there, you're going to have guys who are just
- 26:43Speaker 2: essentially going to have to go. You know, I'm willing
- 26:46Speaker 2: to throw to a spot and just hope that it
- 26:47Speaker 2: lands on the turf or my guy gets it.
- 26:50Speaker 1: Yep.
- 26:51Speaker 2: But I went back and I've been doing the stat
- 26:53Speaker 2: and it was Kent State. So but they had a again,
- 26:58Speaker 2: it's like the two the most success and consecutive offensive
- 27:02Speaker 2: you know plays was I think it was like the
- 27:05Speaker 2: one of the twenty yarders that they had and then
- 27:07Speaker 2: they had an eight yarder right after that, and then
- 27:10Speaker 2: we shut it down.
- 27:12Speaker 1: Beautiful and beautiful defensive play. That that's what we've been wanting,
- 27:14Speaker 1: because what we've been signing up for. And so I
- 27:18Speaker 1: want to spend the extended time on the defense because
- 27:21Speaker 1: I believe that the defense deserved to get the shine.
- 27:28Speaker 1: They deserved it. We I'm just so happy that our
- 27:32Speaker 1: defense is this dark good I.
- 27:34Speaker 2: Am and Jay I want to make a nomination before
- 27:40Speaker 2: we move over to the offense. Let's go and give
- 27:44Speaker 2: it up to the special teams. The special teams is special.
- 27:52Speaker 2: They are special. They are making plays and people are
- 27:57Speaker 2: Owen Heineke rolls out there quote from my daughter again,
- 28:00Speaker 2: who now went from like I'm a fan of ou
- 28:03Speaker 2: because my daddy is now. She was now she's she's
- 28:07Speaker 2: gone to a different level now because of this weekend.
- 28:10Speaker 1: Love it.
- 28:11Speaker 2: Watching Philadelphia Denver earlier and they line up for a
- 28:17Speaker 2: fifty five yard field goal and Finley says, I mean,
- 28:24Speaker 2: surely they got to make it, right. I mean, our
- 28:26Speaker 2: guy kicked one for fifty five and it was good
- 28:28Speaker 2: from sixty five, and I'm like, oh, my heart, my heart,
- 28:33Speaker 2: my proud father heart right then and there. But every
- 28:38Speaker 2: single one of those guys continues. I mean, you know,
- 28:42Speaker 2: the punter leading the nation in you know, the the
- 28:45Speaker 2: average ARGs per punt, you know, going into this week,
- 28:48Speaker 2: he continues to just absolutely just I mean, he had
- 28:51Speaker 2: won like the three inch line that went out Seitania
- 28:57Speaker 2: is he was a little scary earlier in this on
- 29:00Speaker 2: some of those punts, those things we're hitting him in,
- 29:02Speaker 2: you know, a little bit harder in the chest. But
- 29:04Speaker 2: now he had some really really good returns. One called
- 29:07Speaker 2: back a little bit of a hold. But it's it's
- 29:10Speaker 2: every single facet. The coverage is great, it's the special
- 29:14Speaker 2: teams are special. And for this team to go where
- 29:19Speaker 2: they're gonna go while the offense gets a chance to
- 29:22Speaker 2: kind of get some rolling going on, your defense has
- 29:24Speaker 2: got to be good and your special team's got to
- 29:26Speaker 2: be good. And those are two things that you can
- 29:29Speaker 2: rely in rely on every single week.
- 29:32Speaker 1: Yep. It is that that's the thing you can rely on,
- 29:36Speaker 1: absolutely no problem. We'll talk more about the we're gonna
- 29:38Speaker 1: give the We're gonna give the the special teams their
- 29:41Speaker 1: flowers as well. We're gonna give them a whole section
- 29:44Speaker 1: as well as we talk about the offense. But I

- 31:34Speaker 1: Got to know how you felt about the performance from
- 31:38Speaker 1: the Oh. We had our boy Michael Hawkins come in
- 31:43Speaker 1: and start because John Mattier is out. He had the
- 31:46Speaker 1: what the h had a black cast on? Didn't he
- 31:49Speaker 1: race out there whits in field?
- 31:51Speaker 2: Yes? And I zoomed in on it when he was
- 31:55Speaker 2: going through walkthroughs and everything. I saw him. I saw
- 32:00Speaker 2: him slapped the backside with that hand to two or
- 32:03Speaker 2: three different guys. I saw him pat a couple different
- 32:05Speaker 2: guys on the helmet. He was running while holding the
- 32:09Speaker 2: helmet in that hand.
- 32:11Speaker 1: I'm I don't understand why he would do that to.
- 32:13Speaker 2: Me because he uh, he's he's he's a monster. And
- 32:20Speaker 2: I had a you know, I'm gonna I'm gonna bring
- 32:22Speaker 2: up a fun radio personality. Had a little conversation with
- 32:26Speaker 2: Jim Traber and he was like, there's I don't care
- 32:29Speaker 2: what preventable says, he's like that guy he's going to
- 32:33Speaker 2: be on the field because that's who he is. He's
- 32:36Speaker 2: a gamer, he's a bulldog. And I thought, man, that's
- 32:40Speaker 2: pretty crazy. But but yeah, he was out there fully
- 32:45Speaker 2: patted up and everything. And now, Jay, what kind of
- 32:48Speaker 2: crazy person is out there fully dressed? I mean he's
- 32:52Speaker 2: That shows the leadership piece, but also it just shows
- 32:55Speaker 2: that you know, he's wanting to be out there for
- 32:57Speaker 2: his team. He wants to be out there to help Mike.
- 32:59Speaker 2: He wants to be out there to you know, see
- 33:02Speaker 2: and because there's an opportunity to learn I mean with
- 33:05Speaker 2: you know, just by watching some of those things. And
- 33:08Speaker 2: I promise you, like whatever, whenever he does return, he's
- 33:12Speaker 2: going to be a better quarterback because of the time
- 33:14Speaker 2: off and him is getting a chance to kind of
- 33:15Speaker 2: watch some stuff and maybe take a step back.
- 33:19Speaker 1: That's true. Shout out to uh but Hawkins gave you something.
- 33:25Speaker 1: This is kind of what I hoped we would get
- 33:27Speaker 1: out of Michael Hawkins in this game, was that he
- 33:34Speaker 1: kind of sat in the pockets start throwing more. Now,
- 33:36Speaker 1: he had a couple of moments where he was just
- 33:37Speaker 1: kind of just throwing it off. I don't know it
- 33:41Speaker 1: was he wasn't setting his legs, setting his feet or anything,
- 33:44Speaker 1: but overall he looked like he was trying to get
- 33:47Speaker 1: comfortable with receivers, get comfortable in there, and just the
- 33:50Speaker 1: offense itself. I was happy that he was throwing it.
- 33:54Speaker 1: Now he throws hard, I'll tell you that. Jeez, Louise
- 33:58Speaker 1: flying like there's no diet on there.
- 34:01Speaker 2: Yet.
- 34:01Speaker 1: We got to get a little bit more touch on
- 34:02Speaker 1: those passes, but I'm glad that he did that. The
- 34:05Speaker 1: run game, I know people are not as excited about it.
- 34:08Speaker 1: We had one hundred andny five yards rushing. He really
- 34:11Speaker 1: wasn't that bad. What I did notice about the offensive
- 34:16Speaker 1: line and the blocking was you could tell that they
- 34:20Speaker 1: weren't very interested in this game. But Blaylot getting seventy
- 34:24Speaker 1: eight yards rushing, we had a jade not sighting and
- 34:29Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, he didn't give me what I
- 34:32Speaker 1: wanted because he didn't start. But I was satisfied with
- 34:35Speaker 1: seeing him out there run. He looked like a running
- 34:39Speaker 1: back that I mean his first two runs were what
- 34:43Speaker 1: nine and like eleven? It's like, okay, we're getting something.
- 34:49Speaker 2: He he looks like his running backs coach. He really
- 34:54Speaker 2: did a little bit of the patience. It looked different,
- 34:58Speaker 2: you know, unfortunately for that one, and uh, and the
- 35:02Speaker 2: crowd definitely got into it. It was I think it was
- 35:04Speaker 2: one of the They gave him two swing passes in
- 35:06Speaker 2: a row, the one where his knee went down, though. Yeah,
- 35:08Speaker 2: he went down on knee, caught the ball and then
- 35:10Speaker 2: took off. And I mean he he on multiple occasions
- 35:15Speaker 2: with sidestepping folks. He stiff armed a couple guys. Uh,
- 35:19Speaker 2: you know, the one My daughter got it in slow
- 35:21Speaker 2: motion running my battery Dead. But she she she got
- 35:26Speaker 2: to play in slow motion. It was the second screen pass.
- 35:28Speaker 2: It was like the next play after his knee went down,
- 35:32Speaker 2: and I think it was like third and twenty and so,
- 35:34Speaker 2: I mean, you know, that was a tough, tough pickup.
- 35:36Speaker 2: But I mean I think he got fifteen and I'm
- 35:39Speaker 2: ninety percent sure that at least eleven of them were
- 35:42Speaker 2: just one hundred percent him, you know, with multiple different
- 35:45Speaker 2: dudes you know, swinging, you know, going right past him,
- 35:49Speaker 2: you know, the stiff arm. So he yes, he looks
- 35:53Speaker 2: like an athlete out there, and it looked different than
- 35:56Speaker 2: any of the other guys out there. I still think
- 35:57Speaker 2: Tory Blaylock's probably the best running back we have right now. Yeah,
- 36:01Speaker 2: but but it like, yes, he showed life.
- 36:06Speaker 1: Yeah, week over week our run game start. That made
- 36:10Speaker 1: me more confident that thought that they're gonna get better
- 36:12Speaker 1: because they've been getting better week over week. So his
- 36:15Speaker 1: first run was a ten yard run, his second run
- 36:18Speaker 1: was a twelve yard run. Yeah, that's twenty two yards
- 36:23Speaker 1: and two carries to start. And we've been asking the
- 36:26Speaker 1: question of okay, camp or what are we going to
- 36:28Speaker 1: get out of Jay?
- 36:29Speaker 2: Not?
- 36:31Speaker 1: We got cool. That's what we got what I think
- 36:38Speaker 1: we wanted out of him? Right, Like, am I crazy
- 36:40Speaker 1: to think that?
- 36:42Speaker 2: No? Because he didn't come in.
- 36:45Speaker 1: That's the thing that got me is he didn't start.
- 36:48Speaker 2: Yeah, and I don't care, you know, I really don't care.
- 36:54Speaker 2: Like you got two guys on the defensive line that start,
- 36:56Speaker 2: You get two defensive backs that start, and so it
- 37:01Speaker 2: is what do you do when you get your opportunity?
- 37:03Speaker 2: And so I will say that with Aught, it goes okay,
- 37:08Speaker 2: if we can get you can get some usage out
- 37:11Speaker 2: of him. I loved the I loved the running back
- 37:14Speaker 2: passing game that they showed this week. I think that
- 37:17Speaker 2: you had Art had to it had to had two
- 37:21Speaker 2: of those catches. The one with the knee went down,
- 37:23Speaker 2: so he ended up with just you know, with ten yards.
- 37:26Speaker 2: But that that four I was wrong. It was fourteen
- 37:28Speaker 2: yards not fifteen. But you know he took negative yards
- 37:31Speaker 2: on that. But still in that pass, I mean, you
- 37:34Speaker 2: saw a lot of you know, escapability, you saw some patience,
- 37:38Speaker 2: and it looked like as he was getting into it,
- 37:42Speaker 2: his confidence was starting to come through. So I was
- 37:44Speaker 2: pretty happy to see that.
- 37:46Speaker 1: Yeah, it's four. His first four carries went for thirty
- 37:48Speaker 1: five yards. First five carries went for thirty five.
- 37:51Speaker 2: Yards, So I have seven a pop. That's that's not bad.
- 37:55Speaker 1: Not bad. It all to start, and again I'm not
- 37:58Speaker 1: saying it's perfect. And as keep being pointed out, we're flawed. Yes,
- 38:02Speaker 1: we are flawed very much. But the fact that he
- 38:06Speaker 1: was able to start doing some stuff, and that was
- 38:09Speaker 1: in the second quarter, in the third quarter before we
- 38:11Speaker 1: all we kind of talked about it in our group
- 38:13Speaker 1: text two about this is that it really started to
- 38:16Speaker 1: feel like as the game progressed, we started to look
- 38:18Speaker 1: like disinterested, just very much. Just they just weren't They
- 38:22Speaker 1: just didn't seem very interested. But he started off pretty
- 38:27Speaker 1: strong with how we were getting yards like he finished
- 38:32Speaker 1: the game. You see ots stats for the game, leven
- 38:34Speaker 1: carries forty nine yards, four and a half yards are carried.
- 38:38Speaker 1: I'm okay with that. I'm okay, I'm okay with that
- 38:42Speaker 1: as a start. I need more now, now, I need more.
- 38:45Speaker 1: Now that you've got the ball, you've got some carries,
- 38:48Speaker 1: and you you're getting your head in there. I need more.
- 38:52Speaker 1: I would like cake now.
- 38:55Speaker 2: Yeah, start an absolute starting point. And I will say this,
- 39:00Speaker 2: the right side of the line, who are the more
- 39:03Speaker 2: experienced duo with Fabecci and Simmons. They had themselves a
- 39:09Speaker 2: terrible game. They were bad, and it seems like Simmons
- 39:14Speaker 2: Simmons has had really tough days against the lower teams.
- 39:19Speaker 2: It seems like that has been a bugaboo. So I
- 39:22Speaker 2: don't know if that is a man Jay. I just
- 39:26Speaker 2: don't know, you know, I don't I don't know how
- 39:27Speaker 2: to explain that. Is it that you're not amped up?
- 39:30Speaker 2: You're not ramped up? You know? I think that the
- 39:33Speaker 2: Dion burks, you know, he has that negative six you
- 39:36Speaker 2: know on that uh on that jet sweep Cannick. I
- 39:41Speaker 2: only God knows what Knic was thinking. Because Dion Burks
- 39:45Speaker 2: got up and got after him, and so Cannic hads
- 39:48Speaker 2: some kind of an argument too, and I was like, bro,
- 39:51Speaker 2: there's no argument.
- 39:54Speaker 1: You've been.
- 39:56Speaker 2: You might as well have been a trap, might have
- 39:59Speaker 2: been a you can been a traffic caused more damage.
- 40:01Speaker 1: Yeah, you were a traffic one in that play. And
- 40:05Speaker 1: my expectations would have been that he would have given
- 40:07Speaker 1: us more than that. But it's okay because he made
- 40:10Speaker 1: it up on that run from Michael Hawkins in for
- 40:11Speaker 1: the touchdown. Yeah, he was the one that turned the linebacker,
- 40:15Speaker 1: made the whole open, and Michael was ever run through
- 40:17Speaker 1: for the score. Again. No one in here, no one
- 40:21Speaker 1: in this comment section, no one on this stream had
- 40:24Speaker 1: said one thing about this being perfect. When it comes
- 40:28Speaker 1: to how we've executed on either side of the ball.
- 40:31Speaker 1: We're just pointing out that we're executing at a higher
- 40:33Speaker 1: level than we even anticipated. On defense, I thought the
- 40:36Speaker 1: defense would have been better than last year. I didn't think
- 40:37Speaker 1: it was going to be this much better Statistically. The
- 40:40Speaker 1: offense though, has really helped that because we're sustaining drives,
- 40:45Speaker 1: like drives are going for longer than like, you know,
- 40:48Speaker 1: three plays. You know, we only had one, three and
- 40:51Speaker 1: out in this game, pretty good when you had a
- 40:54Speaker 1: whole new setup. The only other one was we had
- 40:57Speaker 1: four plays, we scored a touchdown. That was Michael Hawkins,
- 41:00Speaker 1: Isaiah Sataina and you know what, we got to give
- 41:02Speaker 1: that man his flowers to return as a receiver as
- 41:09Speaker 1: a receiver.
- 41:12Speaker 2: Arkansas and Jay, I'm going to say this, thank you.
- 41:18Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if there's a stat
- 41:20Speaker 2: being kept anywhere about players who cause more reviews to
- 41:25Speaker 2: happen and more controversy to happen. But it's every single
- 41:29Speaker 2: game they got to go an official has to go
- 41:32Speaker 2: to the to the hood and look on something that
- 41:35Speaker 2: Satanna did. But listen, I think Jay, somebody had called
- 41:39Speaker 2: it in here and may have been you. I think
- 41:43Speaker 2: you actually called Kearney to leave the team. And I
- 41:45Speaker 2: think I called Contes Lewis. Somebody had called it, you know,
- 41:49Speaker 2: in our circle about maybe it might be Satania. Right now,
- 41:53Speaker 2: he is the best wide receiver on this team through
- 41:57Speaker 2: five games.
- 41:57Speaker 1: He is.
- 41:58Speaker 2: He is the best. He's the most productive. Is he
- 42:01Speaker 2: gets now I'd still hold my breath a little bit
- 42:04Speaker 2: because he also has a little implosion of you know
- 42:07Speaker 2: factor going on. But Uh, Isaiah, Satanna just continues to
- 42:10Speaker 2: do great things. And yeah, that passed from Hawkins. Dude
- 42:14Speaker 2: draped all over him and he just uh and when
- 42:17Speaker 2: he threw, when he was he was getting taken down
- 42:19Speaker 2: and he threw it. You know, that was right in
- 42:21Speaker 2: front of us. So that's right in front of where
- 42:23Speaker 2: our our our you know seats are and yep. And
- 42:26Speaker 2: so I looked over and I was like, oh my god,
- 42:29Speaker 2: Satania is just by himself. How Satania by himself? Because
- 42:32Speaker 2: that ball was it was like a fair catch.
- 42:34Speaker 1: Basically he showed you his ability to muscle his way
- 42:39Speaker 1: in to making that catch. But no, I would like more.
- 42:47Speaker 1: But I've realized also one thing as these games are progressing.
- 42:51Speaker 1: The question was asked here too, like we we were
- 42:54Speaker 1: hoping that I and and John You're right, you know
- 42:57Speaker 1: we by you know, yeah, we should later in the season.
- 43:02Speaker 1: We ought to run better. This team seems to get
- 43:06Speaker 1: better and better as the season has progressed. They did.
- 43:08Speaker 1: It's what it feels like in the games we were
- 43:10Speaker 1: doing that. This game we did not. We actually got
- 43:12Speaker 1: worse as a game progressed. It and it felt more
- 43:16Speaker 1: so like that everybody was bored. But I digress, Yeah,
- 43:19Speaker 1: we are better and so like as Lloyd asked his question,
- 43:22Speaker 1: Jackson and Williams are both injured. We actually just we
- 43:27Speaker 1: rested them out of precaution. Gott to prepare them for
- 43:30Speaker 1: next week. I think Dom hurt himself against Temple, but
- 43:33Speaker 1: played against Auburn, and then same thing with Jayden. I
- 43:38Speaker 1: think they both got rolled up a little bit, but
- 43:40Speaker 1: they decided to rest them. No reason to play them
- 43:43Speaker 1: in this game at all. But back to my point here, though, Coop,
- 43:48Speaker 1: we ought to be better as the season progressed. We
- 43:52Speaker 1: should be stronger, We should be able to start moving furniture.
- 43:55Speaker 1: We gotta get the meanness bad going with this line,
- 43:58Speaker 1: and truth be told, the ones that are the strongest
- 44:02Speaker 1: so far have been like beating Bow's guys. The ones
- 44:06Speaker 1: that he's actually recruited, the transfers are the ones that
- 44:08Speaker 1: we're trying to get up to speed. To the meanness.
- 44:11Speaker 1: You know, Epl's got some meanness to him. You know,
- 44:13Speaker 1: Zeida has shown us that he can be mean out
- 44:15Speaker 1: there when he's blocking. You're seeing meanness out of uh
- 44:20Speaker 1: Michael Pasousi. He's showing you how mean he is. What
- 44:24Speaker 1: we gotta do is just we've got to get mean er.
- 44:28Speaker 1: And I think that that's gonna happen as we play
- 44:30Speaker 1: more players of our guys for the most part.
- 44:35Speaker 2: And uh yeah, and I want to Lemon just hopped
- 44:37Speaker 2: in here, and so now it's time. You know. I
- 44:40Speaker 2: talked to Keontes Lewis's father and was just asking him, Man,
- 44:45Speaker 2: I love it. Uh. You know, obviously I hated that
- 44:47Speaker 2: that whole play. You know, that's our second second offensive
- 44:51Speaker 2: play of the game. That happened it that the that
- 44:56Speaker 2: took a lot. I mean, the crowd was very sleepy
- 45:00Speaker 2: and that took a lot more out of it. But
- 45:03Speaker 2: dude has no concussion, said that he just needs to
- 45:09Speaker 2: get some rest there. Every CT scans came back clean.
- 45:14Speaker 2: So yeah, no concussion, no neck, no broken bones, no anything.
- 45:19Speaker 2: So I think, you know, I heard Stoia on the
- 45:24Speaker 2: post game say that, you know, maybe there's some you know, uh,
- 45:28Speaker 2: I guess a lack of familiarity in the end zone
- 45:31Speaker 2: because dude didn't, you know, didn't really pull up at all.
- 45:34Speaker 2: And when he went down. I think that, uh, he
- 45:37Speaker 2: just had no knowledge of what was going on around him.
- 45:41Speaker 2: But you know, I Satania was down there right next
- 45:44Speaker 2: to him. Made you know, he satania, didn't didn't have
- 45:47Speaker 2: his hands on his head, didn't look like overly concerned.
- 45:49Speaker 2: He looked like, you know, Keantes Lewis was moving right away.
- 45:52Speaker 2: So it sounds like it sounds like the coaching Staft's
- 45:56Speaker 2: probably going to have to force him to rest because
- 45:58Speaker 2: dude's going to want to get back on there. I
- 46:00Speaker 2: I'll say this, just with having that concussion, you know,
- 46:03Speaker 2: just three weeks ago, that guy's one of the toughest
- 46:06Speaker 2: son of the guns that we've had in a Sooner
- 46:08Speaker 2: Jersey and and you know it's I think that his
- 46:13Speaker 2: dad said something along the line. So yeah, man, I
- 46:15Speaker 2: just don't understand why this keeps happened to him. But
- 46:19Speaker 2: he's so Yeah, it's good. I don't I don't think
- 46:23Speaker 2: he's going to play versus Texas. I bet you he's
- 46:26Speaker 2: going to ask for it and he's going to want to.
- 46:28Speaker 2: But yeah, he's he's gonna be fine.
- 46:32Speaker 1: Soon to South Carolina. Yeah, it's funny that someone believes
- 46:38Speaker 1: we haven't improved in running. And I mean we had
- 46:40Speaker 1: two hundred yards rushing against Temple, We had a underneath
- 46:42Speaker 1: five here against Kent State, one hundred and thirty against Michigan.
- 46:47Speaker 1: The Auburn game is only one we really struggled. And
- 46:49Speaker 1: Auburn has a really good front. Our next EPOEM doesn't
- 46:52Speaker 1: have a good front. Like Florida is worse than us
- 46:55Speaker 1: in running this season worse. They're like thirteenth in the SEC.
- 47:00Speaker 1: We're right above them. They're one of the worst. They
- 47:04Speaker 1: were running all over the opposition and we're about to
- 47:05Speaker 1: go against I promise you we'll be fine.
- 47:09Speaker 2: And I will say this also like it's this offensive
- 47:14Speaker 2: line did look disinterested.
- 47:15Speaker 1: It really do. It's interesting.
- 47:18Speaker 2: It just looks like there was a lot wrong. Now
- 47:20Speaker 2: you know that you have to log. You know, you
- 47:22Speaker 2: have to bear down. Am I saying that we're gonna
- 47:24Speaker 2: out and run for two hundred yards against Texas? That
- 47:25Speaker 2: would surprise me if that happened. But you need to
- 47:28Speaker 2: just make it to where there is a threat to
- 47:33Speaker 2: run that you cannot abandon and back out a coverage.
- 47:38Speaker 2: And again, we probably didn't run anything too exotic on
- 47:42Speaker 2: either side of the ball this week. And I will
- 47:44Speaker 2: say that, yeah, I do think that there needs to
- 47:47Speaker 2: be padding on that area in the stadium. But Jay,
- 47:50Speaker 2: I've been to about sixty games there and I've never
- 47:53Speaker 2: seen that happen before.
- 47:55Speaker 1: It was funny too to even add to that. John
- 47:58Speaker 1: with un locked on John Williams, my co a job
- 48:00Speaker 1: bocked on soon as you mentioned this, and I thought
- 48:01Speaker 1: it was interesting. I didn't think about it. I wonder
- 48:04Speaker 1: if I had something to do with the painting in
- 48:05Speaker 1: the end zone because there was no color in the
- 48:09Speaker 1: end zone. It was all green grass with the letters
- 48:12Speaker 1: being painted in, which was old school. It wasn't your
- 48:14Speaker 1: traditional full painted end zone that we used to, Like,
- 48:16Speaker 1: we're get back to the Crimson end zone now because
- 48:20Speaker 1: we're back in conference play, so going forward it'll be
- 48:22Speaker 1: Crimson for the rest of the season. But this time
- 48:25Speaker 1: it was just green grass, so it didn't look like
- 48:27Speaker 1: it looked like it was still on the field, you
- 48:30Speaker 1: know what I mean. And so when he said that,
- 48:32Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't think about it that way.
- 48:33Speaker 1: That's a depth type perception thing for a player. If
- 48:36Speaker 1: you're you're just kind of looking out the side of
- 48:38Speaker 1: your eye to say, Okay, I'm still in the greens,
- 48:40Speaker 1: so I'm still on the in the field without realizing
- 48:44Speaker 1: you're actually further back. So yeah, I'm glad that he's okay.
- 48:48Speaker 1: I'm glad that like I said, no concussion, just everything's
- 48:51Speaker 1: X raysing negative. He's walking around, he's probably sore. He'll
- 48:54Speaker 1: sit this week and we'll move forward. I want to
- 48:57Speaker 1: give some love to the special teams real quick and
- 49:00Speaker 1: gonna talk post. Thank you out for pulling up hit
- 49:01Speaker 1: the like button if you are new to the channel,
- 49:04Speaker 1: subscribe rate reviewers give us five stars. And that's exactly right, Sean.
- 49:07Speaker 1: It makes it much more dangerous specifically because but now
- 49:11Speaker 1: the good thing is we're it'll be painted crimson moving forward.
- 49:14Speaker 1: We shouldn't run into any of that. But Coop, like
- 49:17Speaker 1: you mentioned before, Sandale kicked a fifty five yarder. Let
- 49:22Speaker 1: me put it to y'all. Let me let me put
- 49:23Speaker 1: it in perspective to you. And this is the reason
- 49:25Speaker 1: why I'm not as concerned as everybody else says about
- 49:28Speaker 1: overall numbers that we're putting up. We do play in
- 49:32Speaker 1: the SEC. We play in a very tough conference where
- 49:37Speaker 1: this is just me think, this is the way I
- 49:38Speaker 1: think about it. There's gonna be a lot of close games,
- 49:43Speaker 1: There's gonna be a lot of grind out games. It's
- 49:45Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of who's the one that's gonna
- 49:48Speaker 1: put the weight on the other team and push past them.
- 49:52Speaker 1: We're shown against Michigan, who's very infamous for having a
- 49:57Speaker 1: big defensive linemen that go to the league. Auburn puts
- 50:01Speaker 1: dudes in the league from their defensive line. We may
- 50:05Speaker 1: not be getting the push that we would like all
- 50:08Speaker 1: the time, but as the game progresses, we don't look
- 50:10Speaker 1: tired like everybody else does. We don't look worn like
- 50:14Speaker 1: everybody else does. And so that leads right here to
- 50:17Speaker 1: the special team side of it. When you get the
- 50:19Speaker 1: opportunity to let your kick or kick deep kicks, kind
- 50:22Speaker 1: of even take advantage of it, because in games I
- 50:26Speaker 1: expect as we go through the last set of the
- 50:28Speaker 1: games for the season, coop Ole, miss is gonna be
- 50:31Speaker 1: a close game. I think Tennessee's gonna be a close game.
- 50:33Speaker 1: I think Alabama's gonna be a close game. Y'all don't
- 50:36Speaker 1: want to hear this. I think Missouri's gonna be a
- 50:38Speaker 1: close game. Yeah, and LSU probably will be too. Heck,
- 50:42Speaker 1: South Carolina's probably gonna be close game. Texas. The next
- 50:45Speaker 1: seven games have a very good chance of being close,
- 50:49Speaker 1: and that's where special team's come into play. Take three
- 50:51Speaker 1: for three with a fifty five yarder. It's gonna be
- 50:53Speaker 1: critical Miller, the punt God, that's what we're gonna call them.
- 51:01Speaker 1: He leads the I think he's topped in the country
- 51:03Speaker 1: in like average and kicks inside the twenty. Dude is
- 51:08Speaker 1: lights out. We're gonna need those in order to be
- 51:14Speaker 1: successful and win games, clutch games because you're gonna have
- 51:19Speaker 1: those moments where Matier or Hawkins, which I'm expecting a
- 51:21Speaker 1: tear back this weekend, it's gonna drive us down the
- 51:25Speaker 1: field for a game winner, and we gotta feel confident
- 51:29Speaker 1: that we could put on that left leg. So far, Coop,
- 51:33Speaker 1: I'm pretty confident it is.
- 51:35Speaker 2: And Grace Miller actually number three in the country. He
- 51:40Speaker 2: is behind now, but I think he had a couple
- 51:43Speaker 2: of short necessity punts here this week, so he never
- 51:46Speaker 2: had to boom it because we were taking the ball
- 51:49Speaker 2: over you know, in pretty you know, positive territory. I
- 51:52Speaker 2: don't think we ever got backed up to where he
- 51:54Speaker 2: had a really unleashed one this week. But yeah, it is.
- 51:57Speaker 2: It's the hidden yardage. It's also getting you know, getting
- 52:00Speaker 2: those opportunities where you had, you know, you had the
- 52:05Speaker 2: you know freedom to run out there for a fifty
- 52:08Speaker 2: five yard field goal, Jay, and I I was like, man,
- 52:13Speaker 2: he's about to hit a fifty five yarder. I wasn't like, dude,
- 52:16Speaker 2: hopefully he can hit this, Like I felt confident. Now
- 52:19Speaker 2: is he going to miss another field goal at some point? Yeah?
- 52:21Speaker 2: I mean, like the odds are that that is going
- 52:24Speaker 2: to happen. But this is a guy who you know,
- 52:27Speaker 2: is it Utsa and then u c O for the
- 52:30Speaker 2: for Grayson Miller for the punter. So you get a
- 52:33Speaker 2: couple of those guys to come up and now they're
- 52:35Speaker 2: playing on the on the you in this big time.
- 52:37Speaker 2: And I believe Jay, during Texas last year, didn't we
- 52:40Speaker 2: miss at least one field goal? I think we may
- 52:43Speaker 2: miss two of them. Yeah, So you know those are hidden.
- 52:47Speaker 2: Those are points that you're going to need. And Jay,
- 52:51Speaker 2: we you know, we want we want to win games
- 52:53Speaker 2: at the end of the at the end of the day,
- 52:55Speaker 2: you stand with the number going up on the left side,
- 53:01Speaker 2: that's what the goal is. And if we go out
- 53:03Speaker 2: and we beat Texas ten to three, I'm okay with that.
- 53:08Speaker 2: I'll be upset we let them have three, but.
- 53:11Speaker 1: I'm okay with field goals. I'm realistic they should be
- 53:14Speaker 1: able to get at least field goals, but we can
- 53:17Speaker 1: avoid touchdowns. I'm very satisfied, and we'll break down the
- 53:19Speaker 1: Texas game later because there's a lot of stats to
- 53:21Speaker 1: talk about that. And I know everybody keeps asking about
- 53:23Speaker 1: the other running backs we have. They're not playing because
- 53:26Speaker 1: it hurt, like both Tatum and ex Rob had been
- 53:31Speaker 1: dealing with like hamstring or foot deals or something like that.
- 53:34Speaker 1: So yeah, when they get healthy, they'll play. I mean,
- 53:37Speaker 1: you saw game Salchuck ran He got two carries for
- 53:40Speaker 1: like twenty one yards. Shout out to him Puerto Rican Express,
- 53:43Speaker 1: as he calls himself. He had a seventeen yard run.
- 53:45Speaker 1: I was like, hey, that's what I'm talking about. But again,
- 53:51Speaker 1: when we prepare for the next couple of weeks, the
- 53:53Speaker 1: biggest thing is like South Carolina is not as good
- 53:55Speaker 1: as everybody thought they were going to be Texas now,
- 54:00Speaker 1: which leads us right into the conversation. Thank y'all for
- 54:02Speaker 1: all pulling up hit the like buddy. If you new
- 54:05Speaker 1: to the channel, subscribe rate review give us five stars.
- 54:08Speaker 1: Ap Pole dropped. I I had to do a reaction
- 54:12Speaker 1: video to it because I thought this was amazing to
- 54:14Speaker 1: see br were missing two teams on here. Two. When
- 54:21Speaker 1: the preseason post dropped, there were a one in a
- 54:28Speaker 1: two or one in a three that was just about
- 54:30Speaker 1: on everybody's Neither one of those teams are on there.
- 54:34Speaker 1: Those teams Texas, Penn State, they are now both gone
- 54:40Speaker 1: from the ap PO.
- 54:42Speaker 2: Hey, let's add a third one, just because I feel
- 54:46Speaker 2: like it's always uh, it's always good. But I also
- 54:49Speaker 2: don't see any Southern California on there, do you? I don't,
- 54:54Speaker 2: am I missing it? Oh?
- 54:55Speaker 1: Yeah, they're missing because number seventeen beat them. Yeah, but
- 54:59Speaker 1: so hey, this is funny one. This is a good
- 55:00Speaker 1: one right here. Do we have a Crosa and a
- 55:03Speaker 1: guy finalist on the same team? We probably do, to
- 55:08Speaker 1: go along with the special teams. We've given up thirty
- 55:10Speaker 1: six points this season and we have forced forty four punts.
- 55:15Speaker 2: It's yeah, let's talk, let's talk, let's talk. Poll look
- 55:23Speaker 2: at it. I'm you know, I'm okay. You know, I'm
- 55:25Speaker 2: okay with this pole. You know again, you've got you
- 55:29Speaker 2: got a bunch of people out in front of us.
- 55:31Speaker 2: You know we're gonna play Old Miss. Now. Old Miss
- 55:33Speaker 2: is the only team that's out in front of us.
- 55:36Speaker 2: Bama L s U tend Missouri. That's it, right, Yeah,
- 55:44Speaker 2: we have every team except for Texas and South Carolina
- 55:49Speaker 2: are ranked.
- 55:50Speaker 1: Ranked that we will play against, and I'm super excited
- 55:54Speaker 1: next two. Yep, that is uh. For the coaches poll,
- 56:01Speaker 1: though Texas and Pennis State still get loved, the coaches
- 56:03Speaker 1: still like them, but it's still the same. We've got O,
- 56:07Speaker 1: miss Bama, LSU, Tennessee, and Missouri all left on our schedule,
- 56:13Speaker 1: which could make things very intriguing for us. And yeah,
- 56:18Speaker 1: we probably Deacon deserves some love because yeah, he has
- 56:23Speaker 1: done a great job. But look at that coop. I
- 56:25Speaker 1: am fascinated that the peop pole actually did the right thing.
- 56:31Speaker 1: Two teams that they thought were gonna be at the
- 56:33Speaker 1: top and they said, nah, we're gonna have to go ahead,
- 56:35Speaker 1: and just majority of us are going to vote them
- 56:37Speaker 1: out off the boat. Shocking and not gonna lie.
- 56:42Speaker 2: I don't think it is shocking because I think that
- 56:44Speaker 2: the media polls are filled out by people who actually
- 56:47Speaker 2: do a lot of watching of football, and the coach
- 56:51Speaker 2: polls there's always there's yeah majority and the coaches pulled.
- 56:54Speaker 2: There's a lot of uh, there's a lot of agendas there, right,
- 56:58Speaker 2: and so you may not want to not have Texas
- 57:02Speaker 2: ranked or Penn State ranked because you're about to play them,
- 57:06Speaker 2: and so you're gonna have some of those people who
- 57:08Speaker 2: are instructed. Hey, you know, let's let's let's let's keep
- 57:11Speaker 2: that in there. I think that you got. I think
- 57:15Speaker 2: you got obviously, you know this week ou goes and
- 57:18Speaker 2: takes care of business. Tax is gonna be gone off
- 57:20Speaker 2: both of them. I don't know if Penn State has
- 57:24Speaker 2: anybody coming up. I think they got somebody soon. Is
- 57:27Speaker 2: it Oregon? I think they have organ this week or
- 57:30Speaker 2: is it next?
- 57:31Speaker 1: Is Oregon? This is coming weekend? Oh we got look
- 57:34Speaker 1: at those schedules. I'm actually intrigued. Now, let's see week seven.
- 57:38Speaker 2: No, Oregon's got Indiana because that's where.
- 57:40Speaker 1: Yeah, game day is going there for the Indiana game.
- 57:43Speaker 1: So yeah, you're right, Uh big ten. Let's see who
- 57:46Speaker 1: plays this weekend. They played Northwestern at the Crib, so
- 57:49Speaker 1: that's gonna pull them right back in there. But they yeah,
- 57:54Speaker 1: because they've already lost to Oregon. They lost back to
- 57:57Speaker 1: back games Oregon U c LA, that's right, Iowa. Then
- 58:01Speaker 1: they have Ohio State and in Indiana. Good lord, that's
- 58:05Speaker 1: gonna be a very interesting back to back set after
- 58:08Speaker 1: their two games. Yeah, it's like I said, majority do
- 58:13Speaker 1: actually watch the games and give us some And yeah,
- 58:17Speaker 1: Clatt had Texas in their playoffs last week as a
- 58:20Speaker 1: four seed. Yeah, he's gonna have a lot of splaining
- 58:23Speaker 1: to do today. I have to go watch his show
- 58:26Speaker 1: and see what he says. But we're just waiting to see. Honestly,
- 58:33Speaker 1: when we're waiting to see how gonna say this, we're
- 58:47Speaker 1: waiting to see the official word and if material is
- 58:50Speaker 1: gonna play. Right now, we are three and a half
- 58:54Speaker 1: point dogs going into the Red River because Michael Hawkins
- 58:57Speaker 1: is starting. We're waiting to see if my tear is
- 59:03Speaker 1: going to be officially in. And I think that that changes.
- 59:05Speaker 1: I think we fail in the ap not only because
- 59:09Speaker 1: XM had a pretty solid winning Asisippi State, who's actually
- 59:11Speaker 1: prety sad this year. Yeah, but we don't have Matier.
- 59:18Speaker 1: BB made a statement on that, and I'm curious, do
- 59:27Speaker 1: you believe him? Do you believe Brint Vinnables when he
- 59:30Speaker 1: says that he doesn't expect for a geometerier to play
- 59:35Speaker 1: this gamesmanship? Are we doing this?
- 59:40Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean it is if there's if there is
- 59:49Speaker 2: a chance that he can do it because from what
- 59:51Speaker 2: I understand is there's not really risk if there's no
- 59:55Speaker 2: re injury risk, like if he gets hitting that hand
- 59:58Speaker 2: in a different area and it breaks like it would
- 1:00:00Speaker 2: have been like this previous one wasn't even a thing.
- 1:00:04Speaker 2: So he's gonna he's going to give it a go.
- 1:00:07Speaker 2: If if if he gets cleared and he gets the choice,
- 1:00:10Speaker 2: he's gonna he's gonna play. I think the gamesmanship still
- 1:00:13Speaker 2: we mentioned this is you got a Texas has got
- 1:00:19Speaker 2: a practice for both quarterbacks. You can't if you're Texas
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: just practiced for Matier. You can't if you're Texas just
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: practiced for Hawkins. And I know that everybody wants to
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: get it wasn't beautiful, It wasn't pretty. We all wanted
- 1:00:34Speaker 2: it to be a nice little seventy point game and
- 1:00:36Speaker 2: Hawkins get out there, guys. I mean we scored in
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: seven or first eight possessions, A couple of field goals, yes,
- 1:00:43Speaker 2: a sack and a bad play and a penalty you know,
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: drove you back and so you had to overcome some
- 1:00:48Speaker 2: of those pieces. But I do think that in watching
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: what happens right in the Florida game, and I think
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: he showed up here, Jayson, somebody bought tickets right out
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: in front of us. Chad from down in Texas. We
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: were talking. He was watching the Texas game throughout the
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: whole throughout the whole game on his phone, and I
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: was watching the updates. And he finally turned around and
- 1:01:15Speaker 2: he had a picture of you and I on his screen.
- 1:01:17Speaker 2: And his wife said, you know, I don't know much
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: about football, but I know you and Jay. He's like,
- 1:01:22Speaker 2: I know your face and he and so that was
- 1:01:25Speaker 2: kind of cool. So Chad shout out to you man,
- 1:01:28Speaker 2: thanks for joining us tonight. But yeah, I mean Texas
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: in watching going back and watched the portion that I did,
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: I mean, Texas got some issues and there is going
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: to be a there's gonna be a lot of there's
- 1:01:46Speaker 2: gonna be a lot of open openings for us. We
- 1:01:48Speaker 2: did not run any exotic blitzes, We did not run
- 1:01:51Speaker 2: pressures from all over the place. We threw guys up
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: on the line and we're going. But again, we didn't
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: have Jayden, didn't have Don Williams out there. And you
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: brought up a point earlier, Jay that our guys look refreshed.
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: We're playing like twenty less snaps per game. On defense
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: than we were last year, and now they're the hunters,
- 1:02:13Speaker 2: and that allows with the special teams. You're listen, we
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: would be the if this offense was humming, and if
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: we were running a one hundred and fifteen hundred and
- 1:02:23Speaker 2: seventy five yards a game, we'd be the undeniable number
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: one team in the country. Right now, Oklahoma would not
- 1:02:28Speaker 2: have any holes in their game. Every single team has
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: a has some kind of a flaw, and so this
- 1:02:35Speaker 2: defense is going to be salivating. You do what you've
- 1:02:41Speaker 2: been doing, you make your tackles. It's going to be
- 1:02:44Speaker 2: more of the same. We've seen it. It's been the
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: same every single week. These guys are getting to the quarterback.
- 1:02:50Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and it's Texas.
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: Texas has not played good competition. They got down the
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: swamp and they were playing a Florida team which was
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: waiting to tarmac their coach at home. And Jay had.
- 1:03:08Speaker 1: A buddy hit me up, that's a Florida fan and
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: he said, man, Texas ruined it for us, And I'm like,
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: what do you mean, y'all beat him? He's like, I know,
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: now it's gonna be hard to fire freaking billion napier.
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: Oh that's very valid point. That's a good point. He
- 1:03:25Speaker 1: seems like I was hoping to fire him after this game.
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: Can't do it now, And Jay, I'm gonna I'm gonna
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: point out something else too. They scored one touchdown against
- 1:03:36Speaker 2: Ohio State, and they scored what was it, three touchdowns
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: against Florida. One of those touchdowns, I mean, you're literally
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: in pre event at that point, and when it came
- 1:03:49Speaker 2: down to the go time, they I mean, they couldn't
- 1:03:52Speaker 2: do anything. They couldn't move the ball, they got guys back,
- 1:03:55Speaker 2: they couldn't run. The Florida is not the same defensive
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: unit that Oklahoma is. Based off the statistics and the
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: eye test, there's no explanation of how Florida is comparable athletes. Twice, Yeah,
- 1:04:09Speaker 2: they got comparable athletes, but these guys were not playing
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: ball the way that oh you is, and so Brent
- 1:04:16Speaker 2: Vinnables is one hundred percent focused on that, and I
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: and I'm I'm at the I'm at the point to say, like, yeah,
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: if John Matier comes out and plays, I think this
- 1:04:25Speaker 2: game gets out of hand. If Hawk plays, I still
- 1:04:28Speaker 2: think that OHU wins this game comfortably because of the defense.
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: The defense is going to give us opportunities, and now
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: we've got a couple of turnovers, you get that monkey
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: off your break back. You don't have to be pushing
- 1:04:40Speaker 2: as hard. Those things are going to come naturally.
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: Fair point we. I think that's the thing to keep
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: in mind when you talk about, like, I respect Florida's
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: defense because they have done a good job of not
- 1:04:57Speaker 1: giving up a whole bunch of points, Like no one
- 1:05:01Speaker 1: has scored thirty on them yet, which I'm kind of
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: surprised about. They've given up twenty three times. They gave
- 1:05:08Speaker 1: up South Florida eighteen. They're probably their offense just doesn't
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: help their defense. But the fact that you threw five
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: interceptions and still only gave up one touchdown on offense
- 1:05:18Speaker 1: because you have a pick six president. Now the question
- 1:05:22Speaker 1: is is I think LSU's biggest issue right now is
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: that nus Smeyer is dealing the same thing that Quinny
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: was dealt with last year. He's not able to throw
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: the ball like he wants to because of that abdomen injury.
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: But we got two we got to tighten up. I'm
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: not saying that we're flawless again, just a reminder for
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: those in the common section, they think that we don't
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: have any type of that that we were saying anything
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: like we're not. We're saying that we've got flaws, we
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: got work to do, but I am very happy where
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: we're at. So we look around at SEC. Texas probably
- 1:06:03Speaker 1: could have gave up more sacks than what they did.
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: Their line looked really bad. Like our past protection is
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: really good. It's just the run blocking. It's got to
- 1:06:13Speaker 1: get better, more meaner. It's like our guys are better
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: at passive like more reacting reactive blocking where they step
- 1:06:20Speaker 1: back and then they turn people. They do a good
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: job at that. They do a bad job at just
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: being mean and pushing dudes around, but they get better
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: as the game goes on because they're in a better
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: shape than what the opposition is. It seems like we
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: seem to be in a much better shape. But yeah, Florida,
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: some Florida fans, we're not happy about that win for
- 1:06:44Speaker 1: them because now it's gonna be a lot tougher to
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: fire him. So we'll break down the Texas game more
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: later or whatnot. Don't worry, we're gonna do that this week.
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: Alabama Vanderbilt was a fun game, and truth be told
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: that felt like last year's gang but reversed. Vanderbilt has
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: two turnovers in the red zone basically to keep themselves
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: from scoring. To me, that helps Bama. And then Bama
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: went out there and capitalized on all of it. Pretty
- 1:07:19Speaker 1: impressive to be honest.
- 1:07:21Speaker 2: If you give Bama, I mean, if you give them
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: the opportunity to, uh to do something against you, they're
- 1:07:27Speaker 2: going to and they got to. You know, they they
- 1:07:29Speaker 2: ran the rock. Jan Miller looked great. You know, he's
- 1:07:32Speaker 2: just coming back from you know, from being dinged up,
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: and he looked good. And so also Kaden Proctor back
- 1:07:40Speaker 2: at the stat line had at himself a catch last week.
- 1:07:43Speaker 2: He had a what was a two yard rush this week?
- 1:07:45Speaker 2: I don't know if that was a ball, that's the yeah,
- 1:07:48Speaker 2: So just dive basically, how do you like to tackle that?
- 1:07:54Speaker 2: Dudere No missed me on that one. But they you know,
- 1:08:03Speaker 2: Cedric Alexier for Vanderbilt talked a lot of mess. He
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: was running and I don't know did he get dinged
- 1:08:09Speaker 2: up or something, because he had four carries for seventy
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: six yards and I didn't see anything after that. Pavia
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: led the team, I mean outside of Pavia, they ran
- 1:08:21Speaker 2: the ball six times.
- 1:08:25Speaker 1: Yeah, that to me is not a good recipe to
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: win in a game where you need to control time.
- 1:08:32Speaker 1: Jam Miller was eating in that game, but the turnovers
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: hurt him. You get there, you got fumble killer. That
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: interception was killer. And those are the players that require
- 1:08:45Speaker 1: you to capitalize on against a team that overall plays
- 1:08:49Speaker 1: good football. I mean they started the game off Bama
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: throws an interception and Vandy does what score touchdown? That's
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: what you want. And then when and built fumbles in
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: the first quarter, Bama scores a touchdown, It's like, oh,
- 1:09:02Speaker 1: now it's gonna get back. Then you start to trade scores,
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: and then that's when things get a little squirrelly. You
- 1:09:08Speaker 1: throw an interception, you throw back to back interceptions Enji game.
- 1:09:16Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta. I mean, obviously we've talked about it.
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: That's why the turnover margin. You gotta be really, really
- 1:09:22Speaker 2: good and have a little bit of luck involved too,
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: if you're going to turn the ball over and not
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: turn it over yourself. So you know, that's another good
- 1:09:35Speaker 2: piece out of this game is no turnovers for us
- 1:09:37Speaker 2: on offense. And I think Hawkins had a couple opportunities.
- 1:09:40Speaker 2: He had a couple of balls where he you know,
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: through some wild stuff, but you gotta I mean, this
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: is sec play from this point on, and so it
- 1:09:50Speaker 2: is taking care of the ball and taking away the ball.
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: That's the critical part. Taking care of the ball and
- 1:09:58Speaker 1: not giving them the ball. I don't know, let me
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: see looking at uh not too many questions or whatnot.
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: Of course, everybody's asking for where are the Texas fans
- 1:10:10Speaker 1: that usually harass us all the time? They are non
- 1:10:13Speaker 1: existent right now. The only real ones I know, frightening
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: truth is probably listening in. He always comes in regardless
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: of how things go, so he's a real one. I
- 1:10:23Speaker 1: appreciate him being as well. He's great. He came in
- 1:10:25Speaker 1: the beginning, so yeah, you know, it's we got two
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: turnovers in this game. So now I think that our
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: luck's gonna change there, so we'll hope that we can
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: continue that. I guess the next question who to me
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: is who gets the first sack in this Texas game?
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: Very early before we really because we're gonna break it
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: down midweek. I think I'm gonna try to get with
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: my guy Steven see if we can do something on
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: Tuesday to talk about this game. But who who do
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: you think gets that sack.
- 1:11:01Speaker 2: I'm gonna go David Stone. You know, I know that,
- 1:11:05Speaker 2: I know up the middle, Texas really struggles. That's where
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: a lot of those pressures come from is up the middle.
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: And you know you're going to see Stone, Jackson, Halton,
- 1:11:17Speaker 2: Don Williams, They're they're all going to be spending some
- 1:11:20Speaker 2: time in the backfield. And you can even you know,
- 1:11:23Speaker 2: you even feel really really comfortable with you know, Marcus
- 1:11:26Speaker 2: Strong going in there at this point, and so you know,
- 1:11:31Speaker 2: I here's the thing is, I really do believe that
- 1:11:35Speaker 2: this is going to be a game to where if
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: you can if you can run the ball with anything,
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: I mean like, if you can keep close to a
- 1:11:42Speaker 2: three yard average, that's that's that's gonna be good. That's
- 1:11:46Speaker 2: going to be good for whichever team. And but you
- 1:11:50Speaker 2: get you get it into arch Manning backfield over and
- 1:11:54Speaker 2: over and over again. You just have to get hands
- 1:11:57Speaker 2: on him, just have to make it a little on
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: comfortable for him. And I promise you all of those
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: defensive tackles are going to have some kind of a
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: competition next week on who gets the most hits pressures.
- 1:12:15Speaker 2: And then that doesn't even throw in r M T
