- 1:21Speaker 1: but Texas and all the weird stuff that's going on there.
- 1:24Speaker 1: How's your Wednesday going, my man?
- 1:26Speaker 2: Well, what time is it right now? It is 7 p.m.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Eastern in Orlando, and it's raining. Wow.
- 1:34Speaker 1: That's shocker.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Usually it's 3 o'clock in the afternoon, but they decided
- 1:38Speaker 2: to have an early evening downpour. I think it stopped,
- 1:41Speaker 2: but it was trying to remind me. It was like, hey,
- 1:44Speaker 2: we're going to give you some bad weather, and Spectrum's
- 1:47Speaker 2: been very iffy. There was a period in late July
- 1:49Speaker 2: where I had an outage for multiple hours every day,
- 1:52Speaker 2: and I wanted to murder someone at Word Spectrum.
- 1:55Speaker 1: That's the worst.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:56Speaker 1: You know, that was one of my big problems with
- 1:58Speaker 1: Cox and people laugh at me on here about, I'm like,
- 2:00Speaker 1: Hey man, it wasn't me. They just seem to always
- 2:03Speaker 1: be a pain in my butt. And now I finally
- 2:06Speaker 1: got rid of them. I got blues peak. They're trying
- 2:08Speaker 1: to get better. The internet's so much better now in comparison, but, uh,
- 2:12Speaker 1: I still, I finally fixed most of my audio issues.
- 2:15Speaker 1: My interfaces have been, I've done a lot of changes.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Yeah. You had some issues like the past week and
- 2:20Speaker 2: a half or so here and there that popped up.
- 2:23Speaker 1: But it's gotten better. That's the thing now. Now we're good.
- 2:26Speaker 1: We're fixed. And speaking of fixed, one of the things
- 2:30Speaker 1: that's been exciting for me and all of us is
- 2:32Speaker 1: Brent Venables has done something that all of us have
- 2:35Speaker 1: hoped he would do. He has now provided us with
- 2:39Speaker 1: captains for the full season. This is now with the second,
- 2:41Speaker 1: third year in a row. We actually have Full season captain.
- 2:45Speaker 1: So I think last year was maybe like four dudes.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Yeah, I was about to say, he started doing that
- 2:49Speaker 2: last year at least. Yeah, last year's when it started.
- 2:53Speaker 1: I was, 2024, I can't remember. I don't think it
- 2:55Speaker 1: happened in the Jackson Arnold era, even though we don't
- 2:57Speaker 1: speak that name out loud. But I don't believe it
- 3:00Speaker 1: happened then. But last year, when Mateer got there, they
- 3:03Speaker 1: transitioned into that. This year, now we have nine in
- 3:10Speaker 1: comparison to last year, having roughly four. And when I
- 3:13Speaker 1: saw it, I was like, oh, so this is what
- 3:17Speaker 1: we're doing. BV, of course, had to have more defensive
- 3:21Speaker 1: guys than offensive guys. Not even mad at him, but
- 3:24Speaker 1: he had to have it. But when you saw it,
- 3:27Speaker 1: how'd you feel about it? I'm going to get it
- 3:28Speaker 1: pulled up here in a minute.
- 3:29Speaker 2: I mean, Fasusi being a captain is a pretty good
- 3:32Speaker 2: sign as far as I'm concerned. I think, you know,
- 3:34Speaker 2: second year player. I mean, I don't think a lot
- 3:37Speaker 2: of people are like, oh yeah, Fasusi, he was a
- 3:39Speaker 2: true freshman last year. So for him to get that
- 3:42Speaker 2: C is pretty important. Now, I think I saw one
- 3:46Speaker 2: person go, oh, God, Isaiah Satania is not a captain.
- 3:49Speaker 2: I was like, well, there's only so many C's to
- 3:51Speaker 2: go around, I guess. But, I mean, it's a good group, man.
- 3:54Speaker 2: And I think it's really telling that, you know, everyone
- 4:00Speaker 2: brings in transfers. It's part of the deal. And it's
- 4:03Speaker 2: more so on the offensive side of the ball and
- 4:05Speaker 2: the defensive side of the ball. But there's a reason
- 4:07Speaker 2: Oklahoma is like, for some people, one of those teams that, well,
- 4:11Speaker 2: if things work out well, they could compete for the
- 4:13Speaker 2: national title. This is kind of one of those reasons.
- 4:16Speaker 2: You have an established group, and knock on wood, they
- 4:21Speaker 2: stay healthy. I mean, of course, I keep hearing about
- 4:25Speaker 2: how tough our schedule is, and it's like, I have
- 4:27Speaker 2: a secret for everybody on everybody's list. Everyone's got a
- 4:32Speaker 2: tough schedule in the Big Ten and the SEC this year.
- 4:35Speaker 2: I don't know if you've heard. Except maybe like Penn State.
- 4:38Speaker 2: I think Penn State skated on a tough schedule.
- 4:39Speaker 1: Is Indiana's actually considered tough this year? I actually think
- 4:43Speaker 1: it might be.
- 4:44Speaker 2: I haven't bothered to look at Indiana's schedule.
- 4:46Speaker 1: I didn't really look at theirs either. I mean, I've
- 4:48Speaker 1: been digging into some of their roster and stuff, but
- 4:50Speaker 1: I haven't really looked at what their schedule truly looks like. But, no,
- 4:53Speaker 1: you make a very valid point. Everybody's schedule is tough,
- 4:57Speaker 1: especially combined combination of SEC and, you know, with the
- 5:02Speaker 1: Big Ten. Funny enough, though, I forgot who I was
- 5:04Speaker 1: listening to talk about this recently. Oh, it was Split
- 5:09Speaker 1: Zone Duo. I was actually listening to them. Shout out
- 5:10Speaker 1: to them. They actually gave us Oklahoma some love for
- 5:12Speaker 1: a change. But Richard Johnson was basically saying, him and
- 5:16Speaker 1: Alex were basically saying that You're probably going to end
- 5:19Speaker 1: up watching a lot of Oklahoma football this year because
- 5:23Speaker 1: the majority of our games is must-see TV. Like, after UTEP,
- 5:27Speaker 1: you technically got a whole bunch of games that's kind
- 5:29Speaker 1: of challenging if you really think about it.
- 5:31Speaker 2: New Mexico's kind of good.
- 5:33Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's funny. My guy Chuck, he'll show up
- 5:36Speaker 1: in here in a bit, and he was getting on
- 5:38Speaker 1: to me. He's like, you're making it seem like Oklahoma's
- 5:40Speaker 1: going to.
- 5:40Speaker 2: Lose that game.
- 5:40Speaker 1: I'm like, I didn't say we're going to lose the game.
- 5:42Speaker 1: We're probably going to win the game by a few touchdowns.
- 5:44Speaker 2: People accuse me of that, too. Right.
- 5:47Speaker 1: We're not saying we'll lose it, but I'm telling you
- 5:49Speaker 1: that they're not going to be a game that's going
- 5:50Speaker 1: to be a pushover. This team could end up in
- 5:52Speaker 1: the playoffs. And the way that we like to just
- 5:55Speaker 1: not show our hands against the G6s, yeah, it's going
- 5:59Speaker 1: to be a challenge. Now, granted, if we decide to
- 6:01Speaker 1: go out there and we just unload the entire clip, yeah,
- 6:05Speaker 1: we could win 49-0 or something like that. But our
- 6:08Speaker 1: goal was never been to go out there and just
- 6:10Speaker 1: beat the crap out of those games. Our goal was
- 6:12Speaker 1: to go out there, win, leave unscathed. but New Mexico
- 6:17Speaker 1: is a good team and they're going to be fun
- 6:18Speaker 1: to watch this year. Cause I actually really liked Jason egg.
- 6:21Speaker 2: Yeah. He, yeah, he made the, uh, ESPN had their
- 6:24Speaker 2: like top 100 players today and he was on that list.
- 6:26Speaker 2: So it's, uh, I think our top level player was
- 6:30Speaker 2: David Stone at number 50. Right there in the middle.
- 6:33Speaker 2: And I'm like, aw, that's great, guys.
- 6:35Speaker 1: Rude.
- 6:36Speaker 2: Disrespect. Appreciate it so much.
- 6:38Speaker 1: Who was it? You had Taylor Wine at like 70-something
- 6:43Speaker 1: and Mateer at 80-something.
- 6:44Speaker 2: Oh, Mateer made it. I'm actually amazed. Mateer actually made it.
- 6:48Speaker 1: He was 80-something. I actually had it pulled up here
- 6:51Speaker 1: a second ago. And I don't know where I put it.
- 6:55Speaker 1: But what I thought was interesting was that them giving
- 7:01Speaker 1: us a good, they put material in there and they
- 7:05Speaker 1: put stone in there and they tailor wine. They basically
- 7:08Speaker 1: said that they expect wine and material to jump up again.
- 7:11Speaker 1: They expect them to actually move up. by the end
- 7:14Speaker 1: of the season.
- 7:15Speaker 2: So this is a thing they update on a weekly
- 7:17Speaker 2: basis for ESPN?
- 7:20Speaker 1: I'm assuming. I don't know if they're going to update
- 7:22Speaker 1: it on a weekly basis, but it does sound like that.
- 7:25Speaker 1: But at the end of it, they think that, oh,
- 7:28Speaker 1: those guys.
- 7:28Speaker 2: Will be moved up. Speaking of player updates, for you
- 7:32Speaker 2: CFB 27 fans, tomorrow's a big day. We get 1,900
- 7:36Speaker 2: players added that were not on the game already, like
- 7:38Speaker 2: some of those freshmen that were late to the party. Really?
- 7:42Speaker 2: If you've been wanting to play with Jonathan Hatton, tomorrow's
- 7:45Speaker 2: the big day.
- 7:46Speaker 1: I actually saw that. I think he's actually on there now.
- 7:51Speaker 2: He's on the database. He's on the database.
- 7:53Speaker 1: He's in the database.
- 7:54Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. XRob's number's been updated back to 21 as well.
- 7:57Speaker 1: Good.
- 7:58Speaker 2: Little things like that. I'm looking forward. I have been
- 8:02Speaker 2: getting through the dog days of summer by spending multiple
- 8:06Speaker 2: nights at times. I'm going to play Michigan, Georgia, and
- 8:09Speaker 2: Texas back to back to back. And I go all
- 8:13Speaker 2: the way. I set it up. I have the maze
- 8:15Speaker 2: out at noon with the maze out uniforms for Michigan
- 8:18Speaker 2: because that's how it's going to look. I chose a
- 8:21Speaker 2: night game for Georgia with a blackout because I figured
- 8:23Speaker 2: that's how it's probably going to go. And, you know,
- 8:25Speaker 2: Texas is going to be usually what it is.
- 8:28Speaker 1: Speaking of that, I haven't purchased the game this year.
- 8:32Speaker 1: I purchased the last two. I wasn't very fond of
- 8:35Speaker 1: last year's, and I actually didn't end up finding myself
- 8:38Speaker 1: playing it enough just because of work. How do you
- 8:41Speaker 1: feel about? that, and how do you feel about Oklahoma
- 8:43Speaker 1: in the game?
- 8:44Speaker 2: Well, I'm an average player. I'm not going to beat
- 8:48Speaker 2: anybody's ass online or anything like that. You're not? No, no, no.
- 8:52Speaker 2: Those days of me trying to do that are over.
- 8:55Speaker 2: I play for fun, but one day I'll figure out
- 8:57Speaker 2: how to throw the ball down the field with any
- 9:00Speaker 2: team because it's like the safeties are always back. They
- 9:02Speaker 2: never creep up at all, so there's never an opportunity
- 9:05Speaker 2: with tight one-on-one man coverage to get something deep without
- 9:08Speaker 2: a safety over top. But... I love it. This is
- 9:13Speaker 2: a fun team. I'll use a fun team to play with.
- 9:15Speaker 2: RPO with X-Rob can be deadly. I love running with Mateer.
- 9:21Speaker 2: The QB zone runs stuff down by the goal line.
- 9:25Speaker 2: It's good, man. It's good. And when you win some
- 9:29Speaker 2: of these games, it feels good to pull off a
- 9:31Speaker 2: W at Georgia in that video game because I love
- 9:34Speaker 2: the atmosphere because They added, like, the really annoying third
- 9:38Speaker 2: down band song. And so when you get a big
- 9:43Speaker 2: third down or you score, it's like, oh, you accomplished something. Yeah.
- 9:46Speaker 1: You're feeling yourself.
- 9:48Speaker 2: I love it. It is the best atmospheric version of
- 9:51Speaker 2: the game to date, and I hope they keep adding.
- 9:54Speaker 2: I still want them to add Boomer 3, you know,
- 9:56Speaker 2: the really loud note they hold back in the day,
- 9:58Speaker 2: which we don't do anymore. apparently band director we have
- 10:01Speaker 2: I miss my traditions everyone's complaining about the sport the
- 10:06Speaker 2: sanctity it's like I want my old school band stuff
- 10:08Speaker 2: back I'm an old man I don't want my DJ
- 10:10Speaker 2: stuff that's me that's just me Yeah, I.
- 10:13Speaker 1: Can see that. And that's fair that you want some
- 10:17Speaker 1: traditions to come back that was enjoyable. It made you
- 10:20Speaker 1: remind you of the glory days in which now I
- 10:22Speaker 1: feel like we're here because as we're talking about these captains,
- 10:26Speaker 1: it sounds like around the world, around the way, around
- 10:29Speaker 1: the media, we're starting to get a little bit more
- 10:32Speaker 1: love than I actually anticipated. Josh Pate put us in
- 10:35Speaker 1: the playoffs again, but he says we're going to go 9-3.
- 10:38Speaker 1: and losing the first round to Texas in Austin.
- 10:41Speaker 2: So let me get this right. So last year we
- 10:44Speaker 2: were going to go 9-3, and Mateer was going to
- 10:46Speaker 2: win the Heisman. Yep. That was going to happen. That
- 10:49Speaker 2: was definitely a possibility. Klatt doesn't even have us in
- 10:53Speaker 2: the playoff.
- 10:54Speaker 1: Nope.
- 10:56Speaker 2: You're going to love this, but I took a peek
- 10:58Speaker 2: at Cowherd's little– interview with clad that was off the
- 11:02Speaker 2: radio show today. And he, uh, he, he, he tried
- 11:05Speaker 2: to pimp material as watch out for John material. Oh,
- 11:08Speaker 2: he's trying to throw one of those. He's trying to
- 11:10Speaker 2: throw a late grenade into the room about watch out
- 11:13Speaker 2: for John material. It's like, Oh, I know your game cowherd.
- 11:17Speaker 2: You throwing that in there. Just that's a, just in
- 11:19Speaker 2: case that's a delayed reaction grenade that he can point
- 11:21Speaker 2: back to later. Just in case.
- 11:24Speaker 1: You know he needs that.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Who was that?
- 11:26Speaker 1: He had Phil Steele on. I think he's had him
- 11:28Speaker 1: like two years in a row. And Phil Steele has
- 11:29Speaker 1: basically praised us the entire time. And it's one of
- 11:34Speaker 1: those where, oh, okay. You know exactly how to try
- 11:37Speaker 1: to lean in and get a little bit more love
- 11:40Speaker 1: or engagement. Because, you know, you can rile up the
- 11:43Speaker 1: Oklahoma crowd.
- 11:44Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. It's like, I'm not. I'm not immune to
- 11:50Speaker 2: all of it or else. Cause I'm a, I'm a YouTuber.
- 11:52Speaker 2: I got to take some of the bait or else
- 11:53Speaker 2: how am I going to make money? Um, but the
- 11:56Speaker 2: point is, it's like, I'm like, there are days, there
- 11:58Speaker 2: are plenty of days where I just like you post
- 12:00Speaker 2: the meme from Mad Max. That's bait. Yep. That's bait.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Don't do it.
- 12:05Speaker 1: That's bait. I avoided like the plague, but at the
- 12:08Speaker 1: same time, just like you said, I got to make
- 12:09Speaker 1: money to get these views up and get people to
- 12:12Speaker 1: tune in. So I talk about certain other things that's
- 12:14Speaker 1: going on, but, Besides that, there are some other things that,
- 12:18Speaker 1: of course, flying around out here. 2026 season starts in
- 12:22Speaker 1: exactly what, nine days? So, of course, I am pretty.
- 12:26Speaker 2: For us, yes.
- 12:28Speaker 1: For us, it's nine days. College football starts this weekend.
- 12:31Speaker 1: Is there games on Thursday? Is there games tomorrow? Is
- 12:35Speaker 1: there D2?
- 12:36Speaker 2: I mean, maybe, yeah, something like that, yeah.
- 12:39Speaker 1: I don't want Red to get in here and curse
- 12:42Speaker 1: us out and say, there's football happening, and we're like, sorry, man.
- 12:46Speaker 2: Listen, despite what some people believe, I do have a
- 12:50Speaker 2: social life at some point, and I have informed people
- 12:52Speaker 2: that starting not this weekend, but the following weekend, my
- 12:56Speaker 2: Saturdays are unavailable. And once the AP poll comes out
- 13:00Speaker 2: at a certain point on Sunday's, then I'm available for
- 13:04Speaker 2: Sunday fun, potentially. Because my NFL dedication is very selective.
- 13:12Speaker 1: I watch the main games. I'll watch the night, the
- 13:16Speaker 1: Sunday night, the Monday night. I'll probably have Red Zone
- 13:19Speaker 1: on during the daytime. The NFL game's complexity and how
- 13:26Speaker 1: challenged that we have when it comes to quarterbacks play
- 13:29Speaker 1: and how bad it has been the last few years
- 13:31Speaker 1: and O-line play has been bad makes it harder to
- 13:34Speaker 1: really just get into it because everybody's struggling. It's tough. College,
- 13:40Speaker 1: not so much. You can have a rogue dude that
- 13:42Speaker 1: goes out there and just dominates. You can have a
- 13:44Speaker 1: Cam Newton randomly.
- 13:46Speaker 2: I'm in a regional-friendly area, so I get to watch Baker.
- 13:48Speaker 2: So I'm very happy about that.
- 13:49Speaker 1: I hate you so much. I mean, I'm a Bucs fan,
- 13:52Speaker 1: and I don't get to watch as much as I
- 13:54Speaker 1: would like to.
- 13:54Speaker 2: There are once-in-a-while weeks where, being in Orlando, you don't
- 13:58Speaker 2: get the Bucs game where somehow Jacksonville overrides you for
- 14:01Speaker 2: whatever reason. I'm very upset about that. It forces me
- 14:04Speaker 2: to watch Jacksonville Jaguar games. Trevor Lawrence.
- 14:07Speaker 1: It's always fun. But FCS does start tomorrow night, and
- 14:11Speaker 1: so there will be some games on ESPN +. I
- 14:13Speaker 1: will be turning into Mercyhurst versus Youngstown State. Yep, probably
- 14:18Speaker 1: will have one of those on because why not? I
- 14:21Speaker 1: have nothing else going on starting tomorrow night. But, no,
- 14:24Speaker 1: speaking of 2026 season, nine days, UTEP comes up. Let
- 14:28Speaker 1: me ask you this, Oney. What– What do you need
- 14:34Speaker 1: to see in that game to make you feel like
- 14:37Speaker 1: Oklahoma can actually be a contender next season?
- 14:40Speaker 2: Which game season? UTEP. UTEP. Oh, UTEP? I mean... Opener.
- 14:46Speaker 1: What's the opener going to make you do your video afterwards?
- 14:50Speaker 1: What do you need to see to make your video
- 14:52Speaker 1: not be you yelling at people?
- 14:54Speaker 2: Um... I mean, you just don't want it to be
- 14:58Speaker 2: a game in the fourth quarter for any reason. I mean,
- 15:00Speaker 2: I think everyone has that. Everyone deep down, whether they
- 15:03Speaker 2: admit it or not, has that fear that if they
- 15:07Speaker 2: have an opener against a quote-unquote garbage opponent, they don't like...
- 15:12Speaker 2: I recall 2015 opener against Akron where that first half
- 15:19Speaker 2: was rough. And people were like, This Lincoln Riley guy
- 15:25Speaker 2: is not going to work. And then like the second half,
- 15:27Speaker 2: everything was fine. And then that first half lump carried
- 15:30Speaker 2: over to Tennessee the next week. But the second half,
- 15:33Speaker 2: Baker became Baker. I want to see a game. I
- 15:36Speaker 2: forgot who they played, but the opener for 23.
- 15:42Speaker 1: Oh, Arkansas State. Yeah, where we made Butch Jones cry.
- 15:46Speaker 2: Yeah. I remember watching that game because we came off 22,
- 15:50Speaker 2: and 22 was rough. And I saw the opener, and
- 15:53Speaker 2: I said, look, it's Arkansas State. But they look crisp.
- 15:57Speaker 2: The offense was humming. The team looks like the way
- 16:01Speaker 2: you want it to look like. And against Illinois State
- 16:04Speaker 2: last year, nobody knew Illinois State was going to play
- 16:08Speaker 2: for the national title in FCS. So it kind of
- 16:11Speaker 2: retroactively became a really good non-conference game as a, as
- 16:14Speaker 2: a tongue in cheek joke thing. But, um, you walked
- 16:17Speaker 2: into that game with like Tori Blaylock, like one of
- 16:20Speaker 2: your only healthy running backs. Maybe Jay not will play.
- 16:23Speaker 2: Is his shoulder okay now? I think those were the
- 16:25Speaker 2: storylines going. Michael Fasusi had a heat exhaustion and it's like,
- 16:31Speaker 2: all right, well Sexton's and you're having trouble running the
- 16:34Speaker 2: ball at times. And, You know, Jaron Kanick gets off
- 16:37Speaker 2: to a good start, but he fumbles his first pick.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Just all these little things were just driving you nuts.
- 16:43Speaker 2: You still won comfortably. Yep. But you're like, okay, Michigan's
- 16:48Speaker 2: coming to town next week. And then you beat Michigan
- 16:50Speaker 2: and things go the way they go. And we're not
- 16:53Speaker 2: going to recap all 2025. But you just want to
- 16:56Speaker 2: see UTEP is your easiest football game. You want to
- 16:59Speaker 2: beat UTEP like they stole something. You want them to
- 17:01Speaker 2: be like, okay, you take care of business. if we
- 17:04Speaker 2: get out 42 to three, I'm fine. I don't need
- 17:09Speaker 2: it to be half a hundred. I don't need to be,
- 17:11Speaker 2: I don't need it to be special. I want to
- 17:12Speaker 2: see if we can run the ball efficiently. Is X
- 17:15Speaker 2: Rob the number one guy I want to see? I mean,
- 17:18Speaker 2: I haven't heard anything to indicate that Tori is back,
- 17:21Speaker 2: but you know, the Lloyd Avant has like been the
- 17:23Speaker 2: dude has been like the most consistent dude in camp
- 17:25Speaker 2: and practice. Um, and you want to see if Johnson
- 17:29Speaker 2: Hatton gets upset. Cause there's no more red shirts. It's
- 17:31Speaker 2: five to five years to play five. We're, straight up,
- 17:34Speaker 2: so there's no reason to not give Jonathan Hatton some snaps,
- 17:37Speaker 2: Zephan Walker some snaps, you know, everything in between. So,
- 17:41Speaker 2: I want to see what Elijah Thomas can do, because
- 17:43Speaker 2: he's like very quietly, like, we all assume the top
- 17:46Speaker 2: three is going to be Satania, Trell Harris, and Livingston,
- 17:50Speaker 2: but Elijah Thomas might have something to say about that. So,
- 17:53Speaker 2: and the tight ends, too. You want to see the
- 17:55Speaker 2: tight ends run block, and I want to see the
- 17:58Speaker 2: play run through a mother effer's face. I want to
- 18:00Speaker 2: see that play.
- 18:02Speaker 1: That is probably the thing that I'm looking for here
- 18:05Speaker 1: is literally just running through people's faces. To me, for
- 18:10Speaker 1: me to feel like, oh, there's contention here, I need
- 18:13Speaker 1: 200 yards rushing at minimum.
- 18:16Speaker 2: I mean, I think that's very doable, and I think
- 18:18Speaker 2: Mateer might try to sneak.
- 18:20Speaker 1: 50 or 60 out of that. He may do that
- 18:22Speaker 1: by himself.
- 18:22Speaker 2: I don't want him to do it by himself. Just
- 18:24Speaker 2: give him a little read option or a little zone read,
- 18:27Speaker 2: and I'm on the goal line. Our first touchdown last
- 18:29Speaker 2: year was a John Mateer keeper. Yeah, it was.
- 18:32Speaker 1: But on that note, I would like to see multiple
- 18:35Speaker 1: running backs with 100 yards rushing. That, to me, makes
- 18:38Speaker 1: me feel like, oh, we're really cooking with Greece. Because
- 18:41Speaker 1: like you said, the play of running through an MF's
- 18:44Speaker 1: face that our boy already has post, that literally, to me, says, oh,
- 18:50Speaker 1: we're going to exert our dominance on everybody, and that's
- 18:52Speaker 1: kind of how the season's going to go. And that's
- 18:53Speaker 1: exactly what I'm looking for. I want us to just
- 18:56Speaker 1: run through people's faces nonstop.
- 18:58Speaker 2: Regardless of who plays center.
- 19:02Speaker 1: Correct, regardless, because that actually travels when you go to
- 19:07Speaker 1: these tough road games. When you're in Michigan, when you're
- 19:10Speaker 1: at Georgia, when you're at Mississippi State, don't get it twisted,
- 19:14Speaker 1: hearing them cowbells can be annoying. But if you're just
- 19:17Speaker 1: handing the ball to a dude and just say it
- 19:18Speaker 1: running through their face, you're going to.
- 19:20Speaker 2: Worry about it.
- 19:21Speaker 1: It saves the day.
- 19:22Speaker 2: I will say, like, it's kind of telling that Caleb
- 19:26Speaker 2: Nita had media availability, which I was like, Oh, okay.
- 19:29Speaker 1: That's always interesting too.
- 19:30Speaker 2: And it's like, he had such new guy at work
- 19:33Speaker 2: vibes in the break room. That's not a good or
- 19:36Speaker 2: bad thing. I'm just like, hey guys, here's the new
- 19:39Speaker 2: guy at work.
- 19:43Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, you know, I'm glad they hired me.
- 19:45Speaker 1: You know, the intake was awesome and I'm just here
- 19:48Speaker 1: to do anything that the team needs me to do.
- 19:50Speaker 1: And you felt the new guy vibe. But it was
- 19:54Speaker 1: pretty telling that they had him speak and really talk
- 19:57Speaker 1: about just beating Bo, pushing everybody. We know he does.
- 20:00Speaker 1: And we know that he likes to cross-train everybody because
- 20:05Speaker 1: you never know when there's going to be something that's
- 20:07Speaker 1: going to come up in a football game.
- 20:09Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:09Speaker 1: Plus, the NFL loves that part about him. So, Nitta, regardless,
- 20:14Speaker 1: I hope he does play in this game at some point. Like,
- 20:17Speaker 1: I don't want, if it's Foget, if it's Noah Best,
- 20:20Speaker 1: I don't want them to be the only centers to
- 20:23Speaker 1: play in this game. I need Nitta. I need to
- 20:24Speaker 1: see what he looks like orchestrating the offense, even if
- 20:27Speaker 1: it's with Witt Neubauer. That's a very, that's a lot
- 20:31Speaker 1: of words there.
- 20:33Speaker 2: Shout out to Witt Neubauer's aunt and uncle. I met
- 20:35Speaker 2: at that weird Connecticut airport earlier this year. Really? Really.
- 20:39Speaker 2: Oh yeah. I was in the, I was in like
- 20:40Speaker 2: the worst airport I've ever been in my life. It was,
- 20:43Speaker 2: I forget. It's like the new Haven, Connecticut airport hair
- 20:46Speaker 2: care and tire center. It is the ultimate S box of,
- 20:51Speaker 2: it's like literally in the middle of an, like there's
- 20:53Speaker 2: an airport here. Like, Oh my God, there's an airport.
- 20:56Speaker 2: And like, I was just wearing my hat. Cause I
- 20:58Speaker 2: was like, I was visiting a friend and like the,
- 21:01Speaker 2: they live in Connecticut. We took the train up to
- 21:02Speaker 2: New York and had fun, but it was like, He's like, hi, here.
- 21:07Speaker 2: He's like, yeah. He says, oh, where's Witt? And they
- 21:09Speaker 2: were trying to find out if some other backup transferred.
- 21:12Speaker 2: Is Witt going to be able to play? They're trying
- 21:14Speaker 2: to figure out if he's going to be able to
- 21:15Speaker 2: win the job next year. He's like, I don't know
- 21:17Speaker 2: if he's going to win the job. But he's like,
- 21:19Speaker 2: I've heard solid things about Witt. But I would like
- 21:23Speaker 2: to see him get in there and see what he
- 21:24Speaker 2: can do. I think that would calm the nerves of
- 21:27Speaker 2: anybody else just in case if there's like a sprained
- 21:30Speaker 2: ankle down the road. But like there's not a lot
- 21:32Speaker 2: of games where you can feel good about a sprained
- 21:35Speaker 2: ankle for anybody. Not at all.
- 21:37Speaker 1: Especially in the SEC.
- 21:39Speaker 2: There ain't no cupcake games in October, November anymore for anybody.
- 21:44Speaker 1: Not this year. Next year, though, I could totally see
- 21:46Speaker 1: us going ahead and putting that transition in, especially since
- 21:48Speaker 1: we'll be playing in week zero, which will no longer
- 21:51Speaker 1: be week zero. It'll just be week one. Like we're
- 21:53Speaker 1: going to eliminate this.
- 21:54Speaker 2: Thank goodness. Do we have to go to Europe to
- 21:56Speaker 2: play it? Is that a rule?
- 21:58Speaker 1: I pray we don't ever do that mess.
- 22:00Speaker 2: Could you imagine this fan base if that happened? I
- 22:04Speaker 2: think if it cost us a home game, they would
- 22:07Speaker 2: lose their minds.
- 22:10Speaker 1: One, they'd lose their mind there. Two, they would probably
- 22:12Speaker 1: be even more insane in Ireland or something. Could you
- 22:16Speaker 1: imagine our fans there? I love them, but.
- 22:21Speaker 2: We're not the craziest fan base, but I just... No.
- 22:25Speaker 1: Something like that we would be, because we travel. We
- 22:28Speaker 1: travel very well. I've been enough places to see. We
- 22:33Speaker 1: travel very well. Okay, so... Dominance against UTEP. Not being
- 22:38Speaker 1: close in the fourth is yours. For me, I need–
- 22:40Speaker 1: I actually– I'm up. I need to get 300 yards
- 22:42Speaker 1: rushing in this game. I just want you to run
- 22:43Speaker 1: all over these dudes.
- 22:44Speaker 2: You keep adding 100 yards every time you say that.
- 22:46Speaker 2: I probably will.
- 22:47Speaker 1: It's probably going to be 400 at some point. I'm
- 22:49Speaker 1: smelling it. It's going to continue to four.
- 22:50Speaker 2: I think it's going to be– I mean, they're getting
- 22:52Speaker 2: NFL players to come back. Samaje, come on back, bro.
- 22:55Speaker 2: We got you.
- 22:56Speaker 1: I mean, hey, don't he have a year left? Did
- 22:57Speaker 1: he leave early?
- 22:58Speaker 2: Maybe he did.
- 22:59Speaker 1: Could Kyler come back next season?
- 23:03Speaker 2: I mean, it's a possibility. I mean, all these NFL–
- 23:05Speaker 2: I mean, the– I think– I really think it's hilarious
- 23:09Speaker 2: that this is the moment where all the power conferences
- 23:12Speaker 2: got together. All right. Screw this. No. No. No. Look.
- 23:16Speaker 1: Lane Kiffin has created solidarity.
- 23:18Speaker 2: In college football. Look, you suck, you suck, you suck,
- 23:22Speaker 2: but we all can agree that this sucks worse, right? Okay.
- 23:27Speaker 2: Just– However you write your rule, make it the harshest
- 23:32Speaker 2: penalty so they don't even try it in court. Please,
- 23:36Speaker 2: just tell them we're going to take their dogs from them.
- 23:40Speaker 2: Especially Lane's. Wait, is that even a real dog? That's
- 23:43Speaker 2: the point. I love that all the power four leagues
- 23:48Speaker 2: are getting together. The ACC and Big 12 today are
- 23:51Speaker 2: finally like, yeah, we should probably play ball with this too.
- 23:54Speaker 1: Because it only makes sense. We shouldn't be having a
- 23:58Speaker 1: whole bunch of professional dudes running around that got cut
- 24:02Speaker 1: from NFL rosters.
- 24:03Speaker 2: See, here's the thing. The reason why they're doing this,
- 24:07Speaker 2: and it's not because the players at LSU were getting
- 24:09Speaker 2: were great or anything. It's just the fact that if
- 24:12Speaker 2: every team potentially had a badass NFL player that could
- 24:16Speaker 2: come back and help them this year, you would have
- 24:19Speaker 2: some mixed feelings. Why don't we, let's give this a
- 24:23Speaker 2: shot and see what happens. You know, just like a little,
- 24:25Speaker 2: because like, I was like, listen, if this was going through,
- 24:28Speaker 2: I was all for it. Let's get Dominic back. Yep.
- 24:31Speaker 2: Let's get Dominic. If we're, oh, that's how the game's
- 24:34Speaker 2: being played. Dominic, if you, for whatever reason, you, come
- 24:37Speaker 2: on back. can we just really do that to the
- 24:40Speaker 2: team and can we pay yes we can pay for
- 24:43Speaker 2: it he'll be welcome.
- 24:44Speaker 1: Back it's all good like dominic and the thing is
- 24:46Speaker 1: is not it's not like he would play a whole
- 24:48Speaker 1: bunch of snaps he would give you good spot snaps
- 24:51Speaker 1: you need to go with the young players that are
- 24:52Speaker 1: gonna be playing too like sometimes you just need that
- 24:56Speaker 1: veteran dude there but hey are you tired jackson slide
- 24:59Speaker 1: you out.
- 24:59Speaker 2: We need to stop the run pj dom you're.
- 25:02Speaker 1: In there you go make it happen and that yeah
- 25:05Speaker 1: i would have I would have signed up for that,
- 25:07Speaker 1: and it wouldn't have disrupted the room. But at the
- 25:08Speaker 1: same time, Brent Venables was prepared for that. The Saeedi pickup,
- 25:11Speaker 1: of course, they wanted an additional big body. Don't you
- 25:15Speaker 1: stop it. Stop it. I think Red is watching this
- 25:18Speaker 1: on the Twitters. Do not stop it.
- 25:21Speaker 2: I need him to fix the economy, please.
- 25:24Speaker 1: He's really good at this.
- 25:26Speaker 2: You know what's funny? To get my football fix as well,
- 25:28Speaker 2: I was watching random clips of Friday Night Lights on
- 25:31Speaker 2: YouTube from the TV show, and the Mike Leach one
- 25:35Speaker 2: popped up. you know, where he's at the gas station.
- 25:37Speaker 2: You need to find your inner pirate and everything. I'm like, oh,
- 25:40Speaker 2: rest in peace, pirate. We miss you, everything. And then
- 25:43Speaker 2: he gets in his SUV and drives away. And in
- 25:45Speaker 2: the background, it's like, it's a little blurry, but what
- 25:48Speaker 2: really made it hit home that this was a 20-year-old
- 25:51Speaker 2: TV show, gas was $ 2.
- 25:53Speaker 1: 37 a gallon.
- 25:57Speaker 2: Oh, heavenly.
- 25:58Speaker 1: That's a heavenly thought. That is a heavenly thought.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Okay.
- 26:02Speaker 1: Well, speaking of heavenly thoughts, I'm going to get your
- 26:05Speaker 1: thoughts on position production. I'm going to see about running
- 26:11Speaker 1: backs and wide receivers before we do that, though. Before
- 26:13Speaker 1: we do that, shout out to our partners there at PrizePix,

- 26:32Speaker 1: going to lay hands. Michael Harris, how did you do

- 27:30Speaker 1: He's one of our favorites because he's the one that
- 27:33Speaker 1: has some of the best rants out there. But I digress.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Let's talk about production for Oklahoma. Do you see us
- 27:40Speaker 1: having a thousand yard rusher this season? I'm going to
- 27:42Speaker 1: throw you on the hot seat immediately.
- 27:45Speaker 2: A thousand yard rusher. I mean, that's a tough one
- 27:49Speaker 2: because it's like, you feel like it's going to be
- 27:52Speaker 2: running back by committee, but it's like a really good committee. It's, it's,
- 27:55Speaker 2: it's one you like, unlike the CFP committee sometimes. I
- 27:59Speaker 2: don't know. Like X-Rob doesn't, X-Rob doesn't feel like a
- 28:02Speaker 2: thousand yard guy. Really? I think, I think you're going
- 28:05Speaker 2: to have like a good 1500 plus easy combo with
- 28:10Speaker 2: all these guys, including Mateer. So I don't see like,
- 28:15Speaker 2: when is one guy just going to take, unless like,
- 28:18Speaker 2: Unless Jonathan Hatton just goes into beast mode and does
- 28:21Speaker 2: some Samaj P. Ryan-level stuff. I'm not putting that on him,
- 28:27Speaker 2: by the way. I am. Okay. He is built like
- 28:32Speaker 2: a 90s action figure, each sold separately. Yeah, exactly.
- 28:35Speaker 1: I would like us to average 200 yards a game,
- 28:38Speaker 1: which gets you 2,400 yards in the season. Because, I mean,
- 28:43Speaker 1: who was that? Missouri averaged 238 yards. They ran for
- 28:49Speaker 1: just under 3,000. I would like us to, you know what,
- 28:54Speaker 1: 200 safe, which puts you at about 2,400. That's around
- 28:56Speaker 1: what Notre Dame did last year. I'll take that. That
- 28:59Speaker 1: means Mateer can get his 500. One of these running
- 29:02Speaker 1: backs can get 1,000. And then you just split up
- 29:06Speaker 1: the rest of it the rest of the way. But
- 29:07Speaker 1: I think you make a good point.
- 29:09Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 29:10Speaker 1: I think we're going to play three backs and it's
- 29:12Speaker 1: going to be really hard for the, for all of
- 29:14Speaker 1: them to just end up with a thousand. But if
- 29:17Speaker 1: there was one who.
- 29:18Speaker 2: Could steal it. If you, yeah. But if you had
- 29:20Speaker 2: like two, like if we had like a mix and
- 29:22Speaker 2: P Ryan duo, like we did, what we had back
- 29:26Speaker 2: in the day that he's like, okay, these guys are
- 29:28Speaker 2: going to be like 2000 yard backs. Easy. Um, but I,
- 29:33Speaker 2: I don't know if we have that. I think Lloyd
- 29:34Speaker 2: Yvonne is going to be like that consistent guy. X-Rob's
- 29:39Speaker 2: going to have his moments. I think X-Rob's going to
- 29:42Speaker 2: be more dangerous in the red zone because he has
- 29:44Speaker 2: that ability to catch an angle and get the corner.
- 29:47Speaker 1: True. But by Hatton, though, because Hatton, everybody's talking about
- 29:50Speaker 1: how he's hitting 22 miles per hour his size.
- 29:55Speaker 2: He's 66 miles away from being able to travel through time.
- 29:59Speaker 2: Not far. Yeah, so I don't want to put that
- 30:02Speaker 2: on a true freshman. Like, yeah, I can't do that.
- 30:06Speaker 2: I think Patton's the type of guy where, like, by midseason,
- 30:09Speaker 2: he's going to have a game against somebody where it's like, oh,
- 30:13Speaker 2: there he is. That's what we heard he could do.
- 30:19Speaker 2: I don't want people to see him get, like, five
- 30:22Speaker 2: to ten carries in the UTEP game. Like, I thought
- 30:24Speaker 2: you said he was going to be the next. Dude,
- 30:27Speaker 2: it's UTEP. They ain't going to. break his back over
- 30:30Speaker 2: playing against UTEP. So I want to save him against
- 30:33Speaker 2: like Michigan or, you know, Georgia. Like if we need
- 30:38Speaker 2: to big backs, big body backs, you're going to need
- 30:40Speaker 2: a guy, you're going to need a couple of guys
- 30:42Speaker 2: like X-Rob and Hatton to be hammers in the second half.
- 30:45Speaker 2: If you want a shot against Georgia, which I've been like,
- 30:48Speaker 2: I know, I think you and Coop got, got us
- 30:53Speaker 2: one in that game last I checked. If, uh, yeah, I,
- 30:58Speaker 2: It's not that I don't believe in my team, guys.
- 31:00Speaker 2: It's like nobody wins there. Like Alabama snuck a W
- 31:03Speaker 2: last year, and before that it was South Carolina in 2019.
- 31:06Speaker 2: I know it's a different Georgia. It's not 21-22 Georgia,
- 31:10Speaker 2: but that defense is still legit. Their offense is maybe pedestrian,
- 31:13Speaker 2: but you're going to have to win like a 17-13
- 31:17Speaker 2: game probably in Athens if you want to pull that off.
- 31:20Speaker 2: And so it's not impossible, but it's like– And if
- 31:26Speaker 2: you're going to beat them, you beat them in September.
- 31:28Speaker 2: So I want to really say they're going to do that,
- 31:34Speaker 2: but I can't get on the roller coaster for that one.
- 31:39Speaker 2: I'm too scared. I'm too scared to get on that
- 31:41Speaker 2: roller coaster.
- 31:43Speaker 1: And I get it. Like I said, if anybody gives
- 31:46Speaker 1: me an argument of Georgia winning that game, I take it.
- 31:48Speaker 1: I can't disagree with you because I do believe that
- 31:51Speaker 1: it's going to be– I feel like it's going to
- 31:52Speaker 1: be a close game similar to how they played Alabama
- 31:54Speaker 1: last year. That is exactly how I feel that game's
- 31:57Speaker 1: going to go. It's going to be an early 20s game.
- 32:00Speaker 1: It'll be similar to us playing in Tuscaloosa. I mean,
- 32:03Speaker 1: Alabama hadn't lost at the crib for some years as
- 32:06Speaker 1: well in a similar fashion. We pulled that off. 23,
- 32:09Speaker 1: 24 to 21 sounds about what that number would be
- 32:13Speaker 1: in that game to me in Georgia because I think–
- 32:16Speaker 1: My thing is, I don't think Georgia's offense is that good.
- 32:19Speaker 1: I think their offensive line is really good. I think
- 32:22Speaker 1: Gunner Stockton is solid. The run game is solid. But
- 32:24Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to be that good to
- 32:26Speaker 1: where it just does that much damage to our defense.
- 32:28Speaker 2: Did their All-American center have to amputate a finger or something?
- 32:31Speaker 2: I know he had like a finger injury recently.
- 32:33Speaker 1: Bobo's boy had a what?
- 32:34Speaker 2: He had like a finger injury or something. Ooh. So
- 32:38Speaker 2: I think he's playing through it. I don't think it
- 32:39Speaker 2: says snapping hand. Like, I could be wrong, but it's like.
- 32:42Speaker 1: Oh, I gotta look that up. I did not hear
- 32:43Speaker 1: about Bobo having a.
- 32:44Speaker 2: But he got... I was like, he got hurt again? Oh, Lord. So...
- 32:48Speaker 2: But I don't know if it's, like, super serious, but it's, like, it's...
- 32:50Speaker 2: I'm keeping on... It's like, a lot of people's centers
- 32:53Speaker 2: are getting dinged up. Them, USC, us. So.
- 32:56Speaker 1: Yeah, the center position's a tough position. I mean, heck,
- 32:59Speaker 1: offensive line play is a struggle in general.
- 33:01Speaker 2: But, no, I.
- 33:03Speaker 1: My argument on the Georgia one is we've done pretty well.
- 33:08Speaker 1: We did really well last season on the road, and
- 33:10Speaker 1: this team seems to have their ish together on the
- 33:15Speaker 1: road a lot better than they do, honestly, at home sometimes.
- 33:18Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 33:19Speaker 1: But, okay, there's an argument in the comments of, yeah,
- 33:25Speaker 1: he had, Stevie, thank you for that. He had surgery
- 33:28Speaker 1: on a finger.
- 33:29Speaker 2: Dr. Shin?
- 33:29Speaker 1: It's his nightmare. Asked the question. He's like, so we're
- 33:32Speaker 1: going to go from not being able to run on
- 33:34Speaker 1: Temple to 1,000 yards. I'm like, we ran 1,500 yards
- 33:37Speaker 1: last year. I'm just adding 500 more to it, technically. Technically.
- 33:40Speaker 1: We should be able to get up 500 yards more
- 33:42Speaker 1: with backs and a healthy line, healthier backs. And I'm
- 33:46Speaker 1: not forgetting Tory Blaylock at all. I'm just not factoring
- 33:49Speaker 1: him in until he's healthy. Once he's healthy and his
- 33:52Speaker 1: ham game bothering him, yeah, I think Tory Blaylock adds.
- 33:56Speaker 2: Tweaked hamstring is coded language for like, oh, God, this
- 33:59Speaker 2: is going to linger.
- 34:00Speaker 1: It's one of those. And I want Torrey. I would
- 34:04Speaker 1: like Torrey to be 500 more yards, too. We could
- 34:08Speaker 1: have three bags run for 500. That's 1,500 by itself,
- 34:10Speaker 1: and you know Mateer's going to run, so that's an
- 34:12Speaker 1: additional foe. That's 2,000 right there. Now all you got
- 34:15Speaker 1: to do is find me another 400 yards somewhere. I
- 34:17Speaker 1: don't know where it's going to come from. Somebody can
- 34:19Speaker 1: just find that for me. I think we're good. But
- 34:22Speaker 1: why receiver? Do you think we have a 1,000-yard receiver
- 34:24Speaker 1: this year? Cetania was 40 yards away from it last year?
- 34:28Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Cetania is going to. I was told
- 34:31Speaker 2: by somebody he can't be a number one receiver, and
- 34:34Speaker 2: I'm like, is there a rule that says he can't
- 34:35Speaker 2: be a number one receiver? No, but I'm really excited
- 34:40Speaker 2: about the combo of having Satania and Trell Harris on
- 34:45Speaker 2: the field at the same time, because if Satania is
- 34:48Speaker 2: going to be double covered or whatever, it's like Trell
- 34:52Speaker 2: Harris is going to be like, oh, thank you very much.
- 34:55Speaker 2: And I just like the group we have. I like,
- 34:58Speaker 2: you know, Texas fans will say... Parker Livingston. He had
- 35:04Speaker 2: some drops. He says, dude, I need a big body guy. Now,
- 35:08Speaker 2: he can do some fly routes too, but I need
- 35:10Speaker 2: a big body guy who can make some catches on
- 35:12Speaker 2: third down along with the tight ends. I need that
- 35:15Speaker 2: dude who can body somebody if necessary, and he's that dude.
- 35:19Speaker 1: I can't think of which one of the accounts. It
- 35:21Speaker 1: may have been Red Dirt. It may have been Mainline.
- 35:23Speaker 1: One of the Oklahoma... Pro Oklahoma accounts posted that we
- 35:28Speaker 1: haven't had a receiver over 6'3 get 700 yards or
- 35:31Speaker 1: 400 yards in a season or something like that and
- 35:33Speaker 1: they're asking if Parker Livingston can be the first one
- 35:36Speaker 1: to do that I mean he had 500 yards on
- 35:38Speaker 1: just under and 29 catches last year six touchdowns to
- 35:42Speaker 1: me is what jumped.
- 35:43Speaker 2: Out but this is the year for Elijah Thomas too
- 35:45Speaker 2: I think it's like back to back year it's time
- 35:47Speaker 2: because I the hype is there I keep hearing it
- 35:51Speaker 2: there's smoke he might start week one There's smoke.
- 35:54Speaker 1: I've been getting texts about it. If he starts week one,
- 35:58Speaker 1: I'll probably lose my mind. And in that game, he
- 36:00Speaker 1: better put up some flipping numbers, period.
- 36:04Speaker 2: All the ET phone home memes are going to happen.
- 36:07Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely. I've already got mine loaded up. What are
- 36:09Speaker 1: you talking about? I've got it saved in drafts right now.
- 36:12Speaker 1: Touchdown ET, and I'm going to have that phone home.
- 36:14Speaker 1: I'm going to hit send.
- 36:16Speaker 2: You're just going to show the spaceship coming down from–
- 36:22Speaker 2: One of the few rides to still survive the OG
- 36:25Speaker 2: Universal in Orlando.
- 36:27Speaker 1: E.T.
- 36:27Speaker 2: Is still there. Because Steven Spielberg refuses to let it
- 36:30Speaker 2: go away. Exactly. Yeah, right.
- 36:32Speaker 1: But I can totally see E.T. being a special talent
- 36:39Speaker 1: this year. It's good to have an Oklahoma kid, native
- 36:41Speaker 1: of Oklahoma, do this. And I just want him.
- 36:44Speaker 2: To be good. He's wearing 14, too, by the way.
- 36:49Speaker 1: My favorite number. I actually have a 14 jersey from
- 36:51Speaker 1: when Paul Thompson was actually playing Oklahoma.
- 36:53Speaker 2: Oh, that's right. He wore 14 for a minute, didn't he?
- 36:55Speaker 2: He sure did. He did. Craziness, right?
- 36:58Speaker 1: Now I just need ET to go out there and
- 36:59Speaker 1: make it happen. But, Kai, I think it's funny you're
- 37:01Speaker 1: talking about the Air Jordan throw. He's done that, what, twice?
- 37:05Speaker 1: I think we're fine. He's only done it twice in game.
- 37:09Speaker 2: You know what's funny? At least in that clip when
- 37:13Speaker 2: he did it, it was an accurate pass. Yeah. It's
- 37:16Speaker 2: not like it was off.
- 37:17Speaker 1: When he threw it to Zion Kearney, it was pretty accurate.
- 37:21Speaker 2: It's not like it was off target. It's not like
- 37:24Speaker 2: one of our receivers had to do this amazing Monkey D.
- 37:27Speaker 2: Luffy arm catch or whatever and just go.
- 37:31Speaker 1: Right in the chest. Every time.
- 37:32Speaker 2: In the numbers.
- 37:33Speaker 1: It's pretty accurate when he goes the opposite direction and
- 37:36Speaker 1: he throws it across his body. So it's all that matters.
- 37:39Speaker 1: But besides that part... I do wonder, I do think
- 37:45Speaker 1: Satania has the best chance of being a 1,000-yard receiver,
- 37:50Speaker 1: but I'm going to be honest. I think that Terrell
- 37:53Speaker 1: Harris is going to end up being your 1,000-yard receiver.
- 37:56Speaker 1: Just kind of like you mentioned. People are going to
- 37:57Speaker 1: be watching Satania. Like, they're going to be watching the
- 38:00Speaker 1: heck out of Satania. And if that's the case, Terrell
- 38:03Speaker 1: should be able to show up. But if ET is
- 38:05Speaker 1: able to fly in there and get him a whole
- 38:07Speaker 1: bunch of yards too, it could be a good year.
- 38:10Speaker 2: The thing about the wide receiver position is that Every year,
- 38:13Speaker 2: if you have a lot of names and a couple
- 38:16Speaker 2: guys have a good day here and there, you always
- 38:19Speaker 2: end up having, we have nine wide receivers. Guys, like
- 38:22Speaker 2: one dude had a good day one day and one guy,
- 38:25Speaker 2: like who are the consistent names you're hearing? Those are
- 38:28Speaker 2: the guys, like Elijah Thomas is one of those dudes. Yeah.
- 38:32Speaker 2: It's like, I'm like, what about Pettit or Tashir Rogers
- 38:36Speaker 2: and Mackenzie Alleyne? I think Alleyne's going to get in
- 38:40Speaker 2: there because he's got a repertoire with John Mateer. He'll
- 38:44Speaker 2: get his snaps and everything, but just... I'm just excited
- 38:49Speaker 2: with the ability to potentially, hey, we can throw the
- 38:51Speaker 2: ball down the field a little more accurately now. We
- 38:54Speaker 2: can actually do those.
- 38:55Speaker 1: Overthrow somebody. I want to see him overthrow either Satania
- 38:59Speaker 1: or ET. Launch that thing and let them go up
- 39:03Speaker 1: underneath it. But I do think that Terrell's going to
- 39:06Speaker 1: end up being the dude. Because seeing some of his
- 39:09Speaker 1: catches and in here, and of course, they're like, no,
- 39:11Speaker 1: he's 100%. He was ready to go before. They were
- 39:14Speaker 1: playing the overly cautious game just in case because of,
- 39:19Speaker 1: you know, history. You want to make sure that you're not, yeah,
- 39:23Speaker 1: doing too much. That to me is.
- 39:26Speaker 2: It is nice to hear that a lot of guys
- 39:28Speaker 2: who were a little, banged up most of them when
- 39:32Speaker 2: they got back in there once they got a little
- 39:34Speaker 2: more acclimated they oh they can there's trail oh lasusi's
- 39:38Speaker 2: back we good oh um you know.
- 39:42Speaker 1: Name it they're like oh wait we're good oh okay
- 39:45Speaker 1: didn't realize.
- 39:45Speaker 2: I mean my i mean outside of my i mean
- 39:48Speaker 2: I think one of the smartest things Brent did this
- 39:50Speaker 2: year is that, you know, the Michael injury sucks. And
- 39:54Speaker 2: it's like, you know, you go through a scrim, but
- 39:56Speaker 2: like we, we technically, we had one scrimmage. Technically everything
- 40:00Speaker 2: else was just really intense team sessions.
- 40:03Speaker 1: So, which was smart on BV's part. It's similar to,
- 40:07Speaker 1: as everyone keeps saying, do what Indiana does. I mean, sure.
- 40:10Speaker 1: That sounds great. It sounds great when you, when you
- 40:13Speaker 1: say it out loud like that, but use Google.
- 40:16Speaker 2: Right.
- 40:17Speaker 1: Not very many people would. I mean, heck, who was
- 40:20Speaker 1: I listening to? Yeah, I was listening. I think it
- 40:22Speaker 1: was Split Zone. And they were talking about Urban Meyer
- 40:28Speaker 1: was having a conversation with With Kurt Cignetti, and he
- 40:32Speaker 1: was talking about prepping for the season coming up, I
- 40:34Speaker 1: think it was last year. And Kurt's like, yeah, yeah,
- 40:37Speaker 1: we ain't practicing like that. Out of 15 days, we
- 40:39Speaker 1: maybe use 13, maybe. We'll probably go for about 90
- 40:43Speaker 1: minutes or less. And you can see Urban Meyer's head's
- 40:46Speaker 1: about to explode. Like, wait, how are you getting your
- 40:49Speaker 1: team together if you're not practicing? And it's just like, no,
- 40:52Speaker 1: he has a system. For him, the most important thing
- 40:55Speaker 1: was being extremely meticulous about And that's something BTV has
- 41:01Speaker 1: been like as well. The big difference, though, is Sig has,
- 41:05Speaker 1: and I'll repeat this for everybody again, Cignetti's office, his
- 41:09Speaker 1: OC and DC's been with him for like six, seven years.
- 41:11Speaker 1: They're the same dudes that's been underneath. That's unheard of.
- 41:15Speaker 1: I did a search on him.
- 41:17Speaker 2: I got bored.
- 41:18Speaker 1: I wanted to see how many teams in college football
- 41:23Speaker 1: have former coordinators as even just position staff on there.
- 41:30Speaker 1: Alabama has like four on the offensive side of the
- 41:33Speaker 1: ball and like two on defense. Vast majority of the country, two.
- 41:39Speaker 1: BV has four.
- 41:42Speaker 2: Kevin Wilson, one of them.
- 41:43Speaker 1: And that's on defense. On offense, he's got two in
- 41:47Speaker 1: Ben and Kevin Wilson. Lebby has two in Johns as
- 41:52Speaker 1: well as Matt Wells. But for the most part, very
- 41:55Speaker 1: few people actually have play-calling offensive coordinators and staffers on there. Sig,
- 42:01Speaker 1: these dudes have been with him for so long. Now
- 42:03Speaker 1: BV's building that. That's the plus. We just need now
- 42:07Speaker 1: Ben to continue to grow, keep learning from Kevin Wilson,
- 42:10Speaker 1: run through MF's face. and keep growing. It takes time, unfortunately,
- 42:15Speaker 1: but that's, if you're, you're going in the right direction
- 42:18Speaker 1: with the way that BV's built the staff, but having Lamar, having, uh,
- 42:22Speaker 1: Brendan Hall, having Wes, having Nate Dreiling, that's four dudes.
- 42:28Speaker 1: And then of course, Todd Bates was his co DC
- 42:31Speaker 1: there in Clemson. So he has some experience, but not
- 42:35Speaker 1: really play calling, but you have four dudes that have
- 42:37Speaker 1: played call plays before as a DC.
- 42:39Speaker 2: The two guys I worry about losing at some point
- 42:41Speaker 2: are Chavis and Hall. I think that day is coming,
- 42:44Speaker 2: and I'm just like, I'm going to cry. You know what?
- 42:48Speaker 1: I wonder if Hall is actually interesting in leaving the position, Coach,
- 42:52Speaker 1: because to me.
- 42:53Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's happening. I'm not saying it's imminent.
- 42:54Speaker 2: I'm just like, a day is coming, and I'm going
- 42:57Speaker 2: to cry.
- 42:57Speaker 1: That's fair, but I think the only one I could
- 43:00Speaker 1: push back on is Hall, and I say that because
- 43:02Speaker 1: the rumor was he was offered the D.C. spot here
- 43:05Speaker 1: to just call the plays, and he's like, no, I'm good.
- 43:08Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 43:09Speaker 1: I think he's like, it's kind of like Bill Beaton,
- 43:11Speaker 1: but I've heard about him of, yes, people have offered
- 43:15Speaker 1: him OC jobs before. And he's just like, no, I
- 43:16Speaker 1: just want to coast the whole line.
- 43:17Speaker 2: I'm good.
- 43:18Speaker 1: I don't want to do all that extra stuff. I
- 43:19Speaker 1: don't want to do all that rest of that mess.
- 43:21Speaker 2: It's like, I'm good at what I do. Yeah, I'm good.
- 43:24Speaker 1: I like being good at what I do.
- 43:26Speaker 2: It takes me half the season. It takes me half
- 43:27Speaker 2: the season sometimes figured out, but I'm good at what
- 43:29Speaker 2: I do. Right. Right.
- 43:31Speaker 1: Very fair.
- 43:32Speaker 2: Very fair.
- 43:32Speaker 1: I think Brendan Hall's in the same situation. Chavis, you
- 43:35Speaker 1: are 100% right. Like someone's going to give him a shot.
- 43:40Speaker 1: I'm wondering if you lose Nate Dreiling or Wes at
- 43:44Speaker 1: some point to them wanting to go be a DC again.
- 43:48Speaker 1: That makes, I'm intrigued because the fact that you got
- 43:50Speaker 1: two linebacker coaches and you're a linebacker guy too.
- 43:54Speaker 2: Well, the problem is Brent can't go out on the
- 43:56Speaker 2: road to recruit. So you got to have somebody there.
- 44:00Speaker 1: But two of them. So it's very interesting.
- 44:04Speaker 2: Like, uh, I have, like, taken a break from following
- 44:08Speaker 2: recruiting on the reg, but I know just, like, on
- 44:10Speaker 2: the surface, like, 28 is, like, potentially setting up to
- 44:13Speaker 2: be amazing.
- 44:14Speaker 1: We're doing a really good job there. Let's kind of
- 44:17Speaker 1: talk about that. Thank you all, of course, for pulling up.

- 44:49Speaker 1: I'm monitoring it, and so I've been starring things to
- 44:52Speaker 1: talk about in a bit. But I digress. No, the
- 44:55Speaker 1: recruiting in 2028 has been going up. I've been seeing
- 44:59Speaker 1: a lot of predictions going Oklahoma's direction. 27 class is
- 45:03Speaker 1: going to finish top 10, if not top 5. 28
- 45:07Speaker 1: may be another one. I like that.
- 45:10Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we have the quarterback, and we've Got the
- 45:14Speaker 2: kid from Jersey who was Notre Dame for half a minute.
- 45:18Speaker 2: Which is insane if he flipped that fast.
- 45:21Speaker 1: A Notre Dame kid.
- 45:22Speaker 2: Well, the story was someone lied to him. They told
- 45:25Speaker 2: me this about you guys at Oklahoma. No. Hi, we're Oklahoma.
- 45:32Speaker 2: We're not doing that. Oh, well, I commit to you now. Wait, wait, wait.
- 45:36Speaker 1: Tell your agent to call me.
- 45:38Speaker 2: Actually, you know what?
- 45:38Speaker 1: You call me, and I'm going to tell you what
- 45:39Speaker 1: I told your agent.
- 45:42Speaker 2: So we got our guy for, for, for 28. And, uh,
- 45:46Speaker 2: but I, I'm, I, I'm not prepared to talk recruiting
- 45:50Speaker 2: for 2028 because it's like, I need to get through
- 45:51Speaker 2: this class first before I get super excited about 28,
- 45:54Speaker 2: but everything's kind of like simmering in the pot right
- 45:57Speaker 2: now where it's not like an explosion may happen soon
- 46:00Speaker 2: in a positive way. So like there's, there's a lot
- 46:03Speaker 2: of things simmering and like the Chad Simmons of the
- 46:06Speaker 2: world are getting everyone excited. So we just got to
- 46:08Speaker 2: wait and be, be patient. But, um, 28 feels so
- 46:12Speaker 2: far away, though, man.
- 46:13Speaker 1: It really isn't. The actual national signing day-ish.
- 46:21Speaker 2: It's a little over a year away. It ain't that far.
- 46:24Speaker 1: That's still too far. Think about it, though. Literally, early
- 46:30Speaker 1: signing day, it's in December. Until that hits, I don't know.
- 46:34Speaker 2: What a 28 is. Or 29. I'm starting to see them.
- 46:38Speaker 2: Football's about to start. December will get here quick. It's
- 46:41Speaker 2: going to happen. These next three months are going to
- 46:45Speaker 2: fly by, and you're going to be like, how are
- 46:47Speaker 2: we in November? It's going to happen. You're going to
- 46:51Speaker 2: wake up next week, and we'll be in November.
- 46:53Speaker 1: Yep, undefeated. That's exactly what I hope to wake up to.
- 46:57Speaker 2: Oh, God. Don't you put that evil on me, Ricky Bobby.
- 47:00Speaker 2: Don't you put that evil on me. That's hilarious.
- 47:03Speaker 1: Here's a question for you right here. What do you
- 47:05Speaker 1: want as the fourth quarter song?
- 47:12Speaker 2: You don't want my opinion on music.
- 47:13Speaker 1: You're not a music person?
- 47:17Speaker 2: I am the whitest white man you will ever meet.
- 47:19Speaker 2: You do not want my opinion on music. I am
- 47:22Speaker 2: 43 years old. You do not want my opinion on music.
- 47:25Speaker 1: I mean, I am 43 years old, and I totally
- 47:28Speaker 1: can see where we would probably be similar in taste
- 47:32Speaker 1: in that. So what would yours be for a game
- 47:34Speaker 1: that would get you hyped?
- 47:36Speaker 2: Listen, when it was suggested by Eddie Radosevich that Many
- 47:39Speaker 2: Men should be our song, and I was like, that
- 47:41Speaker 2: would be hilarious, but that would never happen. Then I'm like, oh.
- 47:47Speaker 2: I got to hear it at the LSU game in person.
- 47:50Speaker 2: It was like, oh, this is kind of cool. And
- 47:53Speaker 2: I don't know how committed they are to it.
- 47:56Speaker 1: I think the hard to kill bit is kind of
- 47:58Speaker 1: over now. I think we're past it.
- 48:01Speaker 2: I mean, if you want to roll with it, it's fine.
- 48:05Speaker 2: I'm one of those dudes who listens to soundtracks. I'm
- 48:14Speaker 2: the dude who will put some Hans Zimmer on while
- 48:16Speaker 2: I'm in the apartment. Just like, here's some... What is this?
- 48:21Speaker 2: I'm an epic soundtrack guy, so... What are we doing?
- 48:25Speaker 1: Like, what are we doing? Like, what are we doing
- 48:26Speaker 1: with this calmness, please?
- 48:28Speaker 2: Calmness? What do you mean?
- 48:31Speaker 1: Calm.
- 48:31Speaker 2: Calm. What do we do?
- 48:32Speaker 1: I need you to... What makes you go run around
- 48:34Speaker 1: the room and, like, pretend.
- 48:36Speaker 2: To break stuff? Boomer Sooner for 10 hours on YouTube.
- 48:41Speaker 2: Let's go! Oh, yeah. I'm like, when it's going to
- 48:47Speaker 2: be game day, I'm going to crank up Boomer Sooner
- 48:49Speaker 2: for 10 hours on YouTube. And I'm going to be like.
- 48:53Speaker 1: Do you have it saved on your channel right now?
- 48:56Speaker 2: Well, I mean, it's just a quick little YouTube search,
- 48:58Speaker 2: Boomer Sooner 10 hours, and click. I mean, it's probably
- 49:02Speaker 2: saved in the four-hour mark at some point at this
- 49:05Speaker 2: point right now. But when it's day one, when it's
- 49:09Speaker 2: game day day one, I'm fired up. I like to
- 49:13Speaker 2: post the little skeleton popping out of the grave from
- 49:15Speaker 2: Return of the Living Dead. Wake up, it's game game
- 49:18Speaker 2: yep that's my that's my go-to um i already did
- 49:22Speaker 2: my two weeks out uh meme i do every year
- 49:24Speaker 2: from total recall so i'm prepped i'm ready to go
- 49:29Speaker 2: but uh i'm a dude who loves like fight songs
- 49:32Speaker 2: i love tradition so that's me i'm that dude so
- 49:36Speaker 2: I love, like, one of my favorite moments, like, going
- 49:39Speaker 2: to OU Texas back in 23, and it had been
- 49:42Speaker 2: a minute, and game day was there, and it's like
- 49:45Speaker 2: the pride was out there, and I was like, oh, yes,
- 49:48Speaker 2: this is nirvana for me right here. This is where
- 49:51Speaker 2: I haven't been here in so long. And that was
- 49:55Speaker 2: back when Pat McAfee wasn't as annoying as he is
- 49:57Speaker 2: now because you hear him on game day trying to
- 50:00Speaker 2: hype up the crowd. I'm just like, okay, this is
- 50:02Speaker 2: going to be a good day. This is going to
- 50:03Speaker 2: be a good day. I need to get back there.
- 50:05Speaker 2: We haven't won since the last time I've been there
- 50:06Speaker 2: in person.
- 50:08Speaker 1: Really?
- 50:09Speaker 2: Last time we won against Texas, I was there in person.
- 50:11Speaker 2: Maybe that's a reason.
- 50:12Speaker 1: Are you going this year?
- 50:13Speaker 2: I'm going to no games this year. I'm broke. I
- 50:17Speaker 2: got to pay off bills.
- 50:18Speaker 1: You're rich. I'm seeing all of the beautiful books behind you.
- 50:21Speaker 2: I've heard the rumors about you. 80% of this I've
- 50:24Speaker 2: already owned for like a while.
- 50:27Speaker 1: So what we need to do is up those YouTube numbers.
- 50:30Speaker 2: Listen.
- 50:30Speaker 1: Get your business going. Write that off.
- 50:32Speaker 2: Listen, I bought JoJo's Bizarre Adventure as it came out.
- 50:36Speaker 2: You know, I bought Berserk as it came out. So,
- 50:38Speaker 2: you know, I got my taste in my manga collection.
- 50:42Speaker 2: All right.
- 50:42Speaker 1: So you were there as the OG of.
- 50:44Speaker 2: All of this stuff. Yeah. There's more over here too.
- 50:48Speaker 2: It's a, It's insane. I have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
- 50:54Speaker 2: I have 12 cases. 12 panels.
- 50:56Speaker 1: That's fantastic.
- 50:57Speaker 2: One of them is empty, to be fair.
- 50:59Speaker 1: Got one for you. Let's shift over to this NCAA
- 51:04Speaker 1: craziness that we've been hearing and seeing. And the fact
- 51:08Speaker 1: that you– I got to understand, how was the response
- 51:14Speaker 1: to your Arch Manning video? Thank you all for pulling up.
- 51:17Speaker 1: Hit the like button.
- 51:18Speaker 2: The response to it?
- 51:19Speaker 1: Subscribe, rate, review, give us five stars. I know your
- 51:22Speaker 1: comment section was full. How was it? I gots to know.
- 51:25Speaker 2: So, Jay, here's my little... You know how... Remember Avengers
- 51:29Speaker 2: where he says, that's my secret, Captain? Yes. I stay angry. Well, no.
- 51:34Speaker 2: My secret is I don't read my comment section.
- 51:37Speaker 1: Why not?
- 51:40Speaker 2: I stopped reading my comment section years ago because it
- 51:43Speaker 2: was driving me insane.
- 51:46Speaker 1: Yeah, it gets pretty toxic.
- 51:47Speaker 2: I will. I will once in a while take a
- 51:50Speaker 2: peek at it. But like the days of needing like
- 51:53Speaker 2: that instant, like, you know, the the the endorphins of
- 51:57Speaker 2: the I got to see the comments because it's like,
- 52:00Speaker 2: I don't need that in my life anymore. I got it.
- 52:03Speaker 2: I'm a. disabled veteran on anxiety meds i don't need
- 52:07Speaker 2: that negativity.
- 52:08Speaker 1: In my life in your life there's it's.
- 52:10Speaker 2: Like there were many times where i thought do i
- 52:12Speaker 2: really want to do watch along streams anymore because these
- 52:15Speaker 2: people drive me insane when a third down doesn't go
- 52:19Speaker 2: our way in the first quarter um so i'm still
- 52:23Speaker 2: doing those because i'm i can't quit that life yet
- 52:26Speaker 2: but um But no, I, but no, it, I ended
- 52:30Speaker 2: up on a, someone said, you're on a Texas message board.
- 52:32Speaker 2: It was like, okay, that, that would have impressed me
- 52:34Speaker 2: 10 years ago, but no, it's Thursday, but it's Thursday.
- 52:40Speaker 2: I'm on a Texas message board. Okay. No, but it's like,
- 52:42Speaker 2: I am that dude who is like, overly obsessed with
- 52:45Speaker 2: the Arch Manning hype because I've been kind of obsessed
- 52:48Speaker 2: with it for a year, for like five years. Yeah, sure.
- 52:51Speaker 1: We've been hearing about it nonstop.
- 52:52Speaker 2: Because when I heard it, I was like, okay. When
- 52:55Speaker 2: I first heard it, I was like, okay, that's cool.
- 52:56Speaker 2: Then it's like you start to... Once he committed to Texas,
- 52:58Speaker 2: then it became reason to pay more attention. And it's like,
- 53:02Speaker 2: I'm not an expert at football like some people, but
- 53:08Speaker 2: I'm not seeing... The greatest prospect of all time. Because
- 53:13Speaker 2: that's what was promised. That's what I always laser focus on.
- 53:19Speaker 2: The goalposts keep getting moved back. It's like, no, no, no.
- 53:22Speaker 2: You promised greatest of all time. You promised Heisman. You
- 53:28Speaker 2: promised number one draft pick. You promised the GOAT. I
- 53:34Speaker 2: don't want to hear anything less. And it's year four,
- 53:37Speaker 2: and we're still hearing... He's still ascending. He's just not
- 53:41Speaker 2: there yet. He's still ascending. I mean, did Sam Bradford
- 53:48Speaker 2: need four years to get ready? Or was he a
- 53:50Speaker 2: redshirt freshman that was good enough to potentially win a
- 53:53Speaker 2: national championship in year two? Oh, he was. Vince Young
- 53:58Speaker 2: was the man. I mean, from 04, he became the man.
- 54:05Speaker 2: He only lost one game in two years. He was
- 54:07Speaker 2: the man. Colt McCoy, once he got things in order,
- 54:11Speaker 2: he was the man. There was no cherry picking. I'm
- 54:16Speaker 2: sick and tired of people cherry picking random passes in
- 54:19Speaker 2: a bowl game nobody cares about.
- 54:22Speaker 1: All the Michigan ones?
- 54:24Speaker 2: You got to see this pass he made in the
- 54:26Speaker 2: Citrus Bowl against Michigan. I don't care because that game
- 54:29Speaker 2: doesn't matter.
- 54:31Speaker 1: But we see the flashes, guys.
- 54:34Speaker 2: The flashes. My mother had flashes when she went through menopause. Okay? Wow.
- 54:40Speaker 2: I don't want to hear flashes. I need consistency out
- 54:44Speaker 2: of this dude, all right? Come on now. What are
- 54:49Speaker 2: we doing here? He's either the goat or he's just
- 54:54Speaker 2: average because... I'm watching guys saying, well, you know, he's
- 54:59Speaker 2: good for four foul balls a game. Meaning he just
- 55:02Speaker 2: throws it in the dirt or even some touchdowns. He's
- 55:06Speaker 2: like November. He was so even some touchdowns. He threw November.
- 55:10Speaker 2: I'm seeing guys having to go and make, you shouldn't,
- 55:15Speaker 2: there's some throws. You don't, you shouldn't have to make
- 55:17Speaker 2: miracle catches from some of these guys. They're wide open.
- 55:22Speaker 2: And then when Sark, like, and like, you know, the
- 55:25Speaker 2: truth comes out. usually right after you witness something. There's
- 55:30Speaker 2: a reason Steve Sarkeesian was 45 minutes late after the
- 55:33Speaker 2: scrimmage to give his Zoom call. He was 45 minutes
- 55:38Speaker 2: late because he was pissed. Yeah, with the Texas media,
- 55:42Speaker 2: he was pissed.
- 55:44Speaker 1: Because they put out a lot of stuff earlier than
- 55:45Speaker 1: they probably should have. Because, you know, it's funny, the
- 55:48Speaker 1: Ty Anthony Smith stuff came out on tech, like inside Texas,
- 55:52Speaker 1: like a week before he had dismissed that he was dismissed,
- 55:55Speaker 1: and that wasn't supposed to get out.
- 55:56Speaker 2: That flu, man. Guys, get your flu shots, man.
- 55:59Speaker 1: And it got deleted, like, literally right afterwards.
- 56:02Speaker 2: Makes you get dismissed from the team.
- 56:03Speaker 1: I still have the tweet and the date that it
- 56:05Speaker 1: came out. I remember us talking about it in the Discord.
- 56:08Speaker 1: I'm just like, wait, he's gone? And then, like, you
- 56:10Speaker 1: hear that Tuesday he's back, and then now he's officially gone.
- 56:13Speaker 1: So did he actually come back, though?
- 56:16Speaker 2: He's not even the most, like, important part of, like,
- 56:18Speaker 2: what's going on there. Like, I'm, like... Everyone keeps talking
- 56:23Speaker 2: about how they got all the pieces. Like I said
- 56:25Speaker 2: in the videos, like, well, you went and got all
- 56:26Speaker 2: the Ninja Turtles. You got all these toys for him
- 56:28Speaker 2: to play with and he still can't figure out what
- 56:31Speaker 2: to do with them. And you're trying to convince me
- 56:34Speaker 2: like Lawrence Seymour to me is the equivalent of Caleb
- 56:37Speaker 2: Nita is like, yeah, he was an all American kind
- 56:41Speaker 2: of freshman or all ish guy is like, You have film,
- 56:46Speaker 2: he had one okay game against, what, LSU or something?
- 56:51Speaker 2: When he was at Western Kentucky? It's like, that's kind
- 56:53Speaker 2: of what we got with Caleb Nita, but we didn't
- 56:55Speaker 2: get him to be a starter. All due respect to
- 56:57Speaker 2: Caleb Nita. Like, if you want to talk about, well,
- 57:00Speaker 2: you got Fabetschi, it took Fabetschi a couple years to, like,
- 57:03Speaker 2: kind of get his stuff together a little bit, honestly,
- 57:05Speaker 2: if we're being honest. Yeah. So it's like, I'm not
- 57:10Speaker 2: sold they fixed the interior of the O-line. If you
- 57:13Speaker 2: want to say Goosby's your dude, I mean, he's got
- 57:14Speaker 2: a bone bruise. That all depends on how long it
- 57:18Speaker 2: takes to heal and if he can deal with it.
- 57:20Speaker 2: They're all praying he's ready for Ohio State. I don't
- 57:24Speaker 2: want excuses. I hope he's ready for Ohio State. But
- 57:27Speaker 2: the difference between Oklahoma and Texas on the O-line right now,
- 57:30Speaker 2: if they have a single injury that's long-term on that O-line,
- 57:33Speaker 2: because I don't know what... I think Hudson may not
- 57:36Speaker 2: be able to play now because that's kind of up
- 57:38Speaker 2: in the air with his deal, but... If they have
- 57:40Speaker 2: one injury on that O-line, they might be screwed. We
- 57:44Speaker 2: had an injury with Micah. You know what our fan
- 57:46Speaker 2: base is doing? Play the badass freshman. We're good. We
- 57:50Speaker 2: got depth. No one's really panicking. People are screaming about
- 57:56Speaker 2: Noah Best. Play Noah Best. He's a badass. I'm not
- 58:00Speaker 2: panicking about the O-line. If you lose a guy like Goosby,
- 58:07Speaker 2: you don't replace those guys. You just don't. If you
- 58:10Speaker 2: have an all-world potential first-round tackle, to have that depth
- 58:15Speaker 2: is kind of insane now. But interior guys? They tried
- 58:20Speaker 2: to money whip a bunch of Michigan transfers earlier in January,
- 58:23Speaker 2: and it didn't work. Texas trying to money whip people
- 58:26Speaker 2: over the past couple years hasn't worked. They tried to
- 58:28Speaker 2: do it with those guards. They tried to do it
- 58:29Speaker 2: with Dominic Williams. They tried to do it with Michael Fasuzzi.
- 58:32Speaker 2: It's not working. It's more than just money. People know
- 58:36Speaker 2: that going to Texas is like... I keep hearing the
- 58:40Speaker 2: culture is fixed. Or I heard Sark in SEC Media Days. Well,
- 58:44Speaker 2: last year, we didn't install our culture early enough. Why
- 58:50Speaker 2: do you have to install the culture? You've been the
- 58:52Speaker 2: head coach for how long? It's like, yeah, if you
- 58:55Speaker 2: bring in like 40 new guys or 50 new guys
- 58:58Speaker 2: or whatever, I guess you have to do that, but...
- 59:02Speaker 2: You don't hear about culture problems with OU right now.
- 59:04Speaker 2: You don't hear Brent arguing about Texas tech schedules. Nope.
- 59:10Speaker 2: It's been like for me, like for what we do,
- 59:14Speaker 2: it's been quiet this offseason. You don't hear anything out
- 59:17Speaker 2: of Norman. It is quiet. People keep their heads down.
- 59:20Speaker 2: No one's saying anything stupid. It's bad.
- 59:23Speaker 1: It's bad for business for us. But it's terrible for business.
- 59:27Speaker 1: I mean, the most you get and which is funny
- 59:29Speaker 1: you say that. Even with how quiet it is, there's
- 59:33Speaker 1: not a lack of media availability, though. Like, the media
- 59:37Speaker 1: has been available. They have consistently been there every week. Heck,
- 59:40Speaker 1: they were at practice on Monday. I didn't know they
- 59:42Speaker 1: were going to be at practice on Monday.
- 59:44Speaker 2: I'm like, wait, what?
- 59:45Speaker 1: What is these notes coming from? Like, what is these updates?
- 59:48Speaker 2: Why are you interviewing.
- 59:49Speaker 1: Elijah Thomas right now? I was not prepared for this.
- 59:52Speaker 1: And it's like, but you're right. It's been pretty quiet
- 59:55Speaker 1: outside of Torrey. Fasuzi for a bit, but it sounds
- 59:58Speaker 1: like he's been back like normal. But those are Nixon bruises.
- 1:00:01Speaker 2: Everybody has those.
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: You haven't heard of anything serious.
- 1:00:08Speaker 2: You don't have parents on Twitter complaining about fourth string
- 1:00:11Speaker 2: freshmen not playing in scrimmages.
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: Being told one thing and something else happening and being
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: mad about it. I'm happy that it sounds like the
- 1:00:22Speaker 1: actual culture we've been installing has been installed.
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: Does that mean we're going to win national championship? No,
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: but at the same time, it's like, like there are
- 1:00:32Speaker 2: certain people who overlook this team. They overlook Brent Venables.
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: Cause he's not, he's not a, he's not like a
- 1:00:38Speaker 2: superstar head coach. He's not one of their guys. He's like,
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: Oklahoma is very boring. Like they were right. If you
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: were not an Oklahoma fan last year, Oklahoma is a
- 1:00:48Speaker 2: boring defensive football team that scored just enough points. And,
- 1:00:55Speaker 2: it is a, like, and people are having moments on, like,
- 1:01:00Speaker 2: I love media members getting in their feelings about Brent
- 1:01:03Speaker 2: getting an extension when he did. And it's like, you
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: can argue the timing of it, I guess. And we
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: could argue that, well, there's a new AD and they
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: wanted to wait until that was figured out and they
- 1:01:16Speaker 2: had to figure this out, which is like, and like
- 1:01:19Speaker 2: George Stoyer said it best, if they would have given,
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: if he got this extension, like, in December last year,
- 1:01:24Speaker 2: no one's like talking, no one would say anything, but
- 1:01:28Speaker 2: it just like, I under, I understand that the outrage
- 1:01:31Speaker 2: over six and seven, when he got his first extension,
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: but it's like, Oh, he actually made the playoff after
- 1:01:36Speaker 2: he got that extension.
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: So it's like, but it was, you could tell that
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: the whole purpose was the, we need to stabilize things
- 1:01:42Speaker 1: because recruits are that we're being negatively recruited against. And
- 1:01:46Speaker 1: then you bring in Nagy and now they line up
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: Nagy's contract with BV's contracts that are basically like line
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: and line. Which tells me that, okay, that's exactly where
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: you want it to be. It's an exact line.
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: There's pressure on Brent this year, but it's nowhere near
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: where it is in other places right now. Because when
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: so many other coaches just can't help but be lightning rods.
- 1:02:08Speaker 2: Lane can't help but be a lightning rod. The whole
- 1:02:11Speaker 2: LSU thing is hilarious. We talked about that earlier. But just.
- 1:02:17Speaker 2: I keep hearing, well, you hear Sark talk, and he, like,
- 1:02:20Speaker 2: he sounds like a dude who knows what kind of
- 1:02:23Speaker 2: team he has. He sounds like a dude who's, like,
- 1:02:26Speaker 2: under a lot of pressure to win this year. Because
- 1:02:29Speaker 2: if he does, he's not getting fired. But, man, he
- 1:02:33Speaker 2: don't do it, like, it's all in this year for them.
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: Like I said, they got all the toys in the office, like,
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: All those toys ain't coming back next year. This dream
- 1:02:42Speaker 2: that Arch will come back next year without all those toys,
- 1:02:45Speaker 2: without Cam Coleman, without that backfield, without that offensive line,
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: if you think it's fixed. I mean, do they even
- 1:02:54Speaker 2: have a tight end that's worth a damn this year?
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: Usually not in years past. There's questions. There's questions.
- 1:03:01Speaker 2: They have dudes on defense. Raheem Biles, legit. Colin Simmons, legit.
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: Colin Simmons is insanely good. They're going to miss Anthony Hill.
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: That's what I feel like.
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: But that's what Raheem Biles is supposed to allegedly replace.
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: I know that guy's a dude. I'm not saying he's
- 1:03:17Speaker 2: Anthony Hill, but it's like they have someone who can
- 1:03:20Speaker 2: make plays at that level.
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: True, yeah, he's a tackling machine. That's the one thing
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: I get about him. Because Biles actually played ball in
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: Ohio where Reggie Powers was actually talking to RP3' s dad,
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: and he mentioned, like, oh, yeah, I remember seeing him.
- 1:03:35Speaker 2: He's good. If these two teams stay relatively healthy, it's
- 1:03:38Speaker 2: going to be a fist fight in Dallas again. Which
- 1:03:41Speaker 2: I hope for. It will be like a 16-10 game
- 1:03:45Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter, probably. I expect that. I'm not
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: mad at that. I'm not mad at that at all.
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: I mean, it was 3-3 at the half last year,
- 1:03:50Speaker 1: and Mateer didn't have a thumb. I would like for
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: it to be similar, but I'd like it to be
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: much better, of course, on our end of it.
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: I know he's not on the roster anymore, and he's
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: at Georgia, but I need a moment. To start off,
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: I need what Gentry Williams did at the beginning of
- 1:04:06Speaker 2: the game in 2023. I need someone to make a
- 1:04:08Speaker 2: play on defense. Immediately. I want someone to make a play.
- 1:04:11Speaker 2: I want someone to get in Archer's face and make
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: him rethink his life choices. So that's what this team,
- 1:04:17Speaker 2: because for whatever reason, the defense was good against Texas
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: last year, but they weren't getting home. They weren't stunting.
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: They weren't doing the things.
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: They weren't doing anything.
- 1:04:26Speaker 2: It was weird. It was normal.
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: It was the weirdest. I feel like it was the
- 1:04:31Speaker 1: weird game. it's like it threw everybody off because it's
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: like somebody else mentioned a national guy mentioned it like
- 1:04:37Speaker 1: uh brent venables is known for different fronts stunts and
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: movements and all kinds of stuff it's like that was
- 1:04:42Speaker 1: the most vanilla games ever he i.
- 1:04:45Speaker 2: Think he tried i think he out thought himself that
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: day i think he tried he tried to i think
- 1:04:49Speaker 2: he tried a little too hard because i think maybe
- 1:04:51Speaker 2: he was trying to make up for john or what
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: he could do and like it's it's like I'm just like,
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: I would like to walk into that game this year
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: and not hand Texas a free square. Because there's been
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: too many times in the past 25 years where we've
- 1:05:07Speaker 2: lost to Texas, we handed them a free square. And
- 1:05:10Speaker 2: it was of our own doing. Whether it was injuries
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: or whatever reason. It's like, no, I'm going to say,
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: if that's not Texas' fault, then I'm not saying they
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: shouldn't take the victory. Because if the roles were reversed,
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: you'd take the W every day of the week. But
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: it's like, you've got to stop handing them free squares. Because...
- 1:05:26Speaker 2: 2022 was like the biggest free square of all time.
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: Let's just call it what it is. Yeah, we beat
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: you Florida, dude. It was the, we, we get no
- 1:05:37Speaker 2: free square. You got a free square. 2024 was all
- 1:05:41Speaker 2: on Brent. Granted, there was a, he had extenuating circumstances personally, which,
- 1:05:46Speaker 2: but so, and I'm life happens, but, but like, you know,
- 1:05:50Speaker 2: last year, the thumb, we just like, ugh, can't give
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: Texas a free square this year. Can't do it. I'm
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: totally here for that. And if Texas beats us without
- 1:05:59Speaker 2: giving them a free square, so be it. Yep. No
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: more free squares, though. Those are the wins you remember,
- 1:06:04Speaker 2: like 2023. Those are the ones that you hold on to. 2017, 2016, 18, 19,
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: you know, more of the Big 12 Championship in 18. But, like,
- 1:06:15Speaker 2: just no more free squares this year.
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: No more.
- 1:06:18Speaker 2: No more on that. All right, cool.
- 1:06:19Speaker 1: Well, let's get out of here. We're going to let
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: Oney get back to it. You know where to find
- 1:06:23Speaker 1: him on YouTube, Oney Kuno. I'll have his link in
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: the description below. Of course, thank you for joining us
- 1:06:29Speaker 1: per the usual.
- 1:06:31Speaker 2: I want to keep up the trend of never breaking 20,000 subscribers.
- 1:06:35Speaker 2: I love it. Because if you take a break at
- 1:06:39Speaker 2: any point in the off season, your subs just trickle down.
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: And I was like, you didn't make a video today. Dude,
- 1:06:44Speaker 2: it's May. I taught college football. I went outside today.
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: I know people don't think I do, but I actually
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: went outside.
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: You do go outside often.
- 1:06:50Speaker 2: I do too. I travel.
- 1:06:51Speaker 1: I try to go do things. And I drive around
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: my state. because I like to, you know, not sit
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: in my house. But, no, thank you all for, of course,
- 1:06:58Speaker 1: pulling up at the like button. New to the channel, subscribe, rate, review,
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: give us five stars. Come find us, and we'll have
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: Oney back on during the season. And, yeah, my dog
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: is sniffing around, so obviously he wants to go outside,
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: so I'm going to get him out of here. Holler
- 1:07:11Speaker 1: at y'all later. Peace.
