Is it time to blow up the entire offensive staff for OU football?
Well, it was fun while it lasted. Oklahoma is back to its old self...from three weeks ago. In all honesty, the offense looked promising for 3 quarters. The loss of a fully healthy Ryan Fodje wasn't a shot the Sooners were built to take. John Mateer made the same mistakes we saw before Texas, and...

OU football back from the dead, beats Texas and strips them of No. 1
The Oklahoma Sooners did the unthinkable. They went into the Cotton Bowl and played a turnover free game, found some room to run and let the defense and special teams score touchdowns. Meanwhile the Sooners were much better this year containing Arch Manning, although he did hit a few big passes…

Why can't OU move on from John Mateer? Should they? Let's fight!
John Mateer was the biggest reason the Sooners fell behind and lost any chance of competing with Georgia Saturday in Athens. Carey, Eddie and George all weigh in on not just how the team played, but what should happen next. Why didn't the Sooners move away from Mateer and try something else? Is...
-
Where in the world does Oklahoma football go from here?
Let's preface this by pointing out that the Sooners did win. However, getting booed by your own fanbase is concerning. The defense was great, but once again the offense was just awful. From the indecisiveness in the run game to constant mistakes, the unit isn't good enough to play, let alone in…

Postgame Pod: An embarrassing day of football for the Sooners in Michigan
Controversy from last week didn't matter, Oklahoma walked in to Ann Arbor and just got whooped. From terribly quarterback play, a struggling offensive line, and a run game that just isn't working; this was a rough one. Do I really need to tell you that though? I mean that's why you are here....
-
Sooners' offense shines everywhere in 51-0 beatdown against UTEP
Well the wait is over, Oklahoma has played a football game in 2026. The offense had quite the day with plenty of different Sooners reaching the endzone, and wait...how many tight ends were on the field? The defense did their part in the shutout, I mean it was a shutout after all; but Brent…

Sooners fall to Bama 34-24 as OU blows a 17-point lead in the CFP. Again!

-
Sooners find a way once again and now sit in the driver's seat for CFP spot
It definitely wasn't pretty on Saturday. But this is what we've learned about turnover margins. You have to work that much harder to overcome 3 interceptions. John Mateer struggled, but found enough magic to throw two long TD passes to Isaiah Sategna and Deion Burks. The defense sprinkled more...
-
Sooners win a rock fight with Missouri, move to 9-2
It's probably not a game you are going to make sure you re-watch on a loop, but OU's 17-6 win over Missouri proved their defense is one of the best in the country and one of the best of the last couple decades in Norman. We start with the defense and another elite performance from the Sooners…

Did we just witness history with OU's 23-21 win over Alabama?
Oklahoma's 23-21 win over Alabama brings up so many questions about the future of Oklahoma football under the direction of Brent Venables. But first, let's recognize what a great win this was for the Sooners. It's a win many people didn't think this program was capable of pulling off. But they…

Sooners use defensive chaos early and a John Mateer comeback to beat Vols
A lot of people (COUGH COUGH... Eddie) didn't believe the Sooners could come to Tennessee. A lot of people can't be blamed. This program hasn't had a big road win in the SEC in the last two years. How would this be any different? It just finally was as the Sooners beat Tennessee on their own…
more -
We watched OU lose to Ole Miss and we're very confused about everything
The Sooners looked like crap early and then finally took the lead after picking themselves up off the mat in the third quarter. Before it all fell apart again. Penalties indicate all kinds of discipline issues with this team. So what is the biggest issues with this team? The head coach? The...
-
Is OU's 26-7 win over USC the start of something big on the O-Line?
Oklahoma's 26-7 win over South Carolina was another big step for Brent Venables and the offense after last week's disjointed loss to Texas. The offensive line looked like a real unit for the first time all season against an SEC opponent. Tory Blaylock ran for 100 yards and this time it wasn't...
-
OU loss to Texas puts real problems out in the open on offense
Carey, Eddie and George are back inside the Cotton Bowl pressbox late into the night to hash out what they saw in Oklahoma's 23-6 loss to Texas on this edition of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame. It seems like this keeps happening the same way lately!!! The offense not being able to run the football...

OU gets the blowout 44-0 win over Kent State. Can Hawkins beat Texas?
It was as easy as everyone thought it would be. By the time the fourth quarter rolled around, this game was over. In the end, the Sooners finish off their non-conference slate with a 44-0 win over Kent State. But all eyes were on Michael Hawkins Jr. The player who might have to start against…
more -
OU's defense too much for Jackson Arnold and Auburn to overcome
Oklahoma's matchup with Auburn was expected to be a difficult one. Some may have believed the Sooners might be able to blow out Auburn during Jackson Arnold's return to Norman. But Arnold was a gamer, and the OU rushing attack couldn't find room to run against the Auburn defense. But in the end,...
-
No letdown from Sooners who take care of business against Temple
The Sooners went out and took care of business against Temple winning 42-3 and displaying their dominance on defense. It was a promising development with Auburn coming to Norman next week. But there are some personnel concerns coming out of the game. R Mason Thomas was ejected for targeting and…

OU's 24-13 win over Michigan makes a statement to the nation
Oklahoma defeats Michigan 24-13 in front of a nationally televised audience and they make a statement to the rest of college football. The Sooners are a team to be respected on both sides of the ball and John Mateer used his arm and his legs to put together a performance worthy of a Heisman…

Mateer impressed, offensive line did not in 35-3 opening win
John Mateer set the OU school record for passing yards in a debut as he threw for 392 yards and 3 TDs against Illinois State in a 35-3 win. But there were some issues. The running game couldn't get going and that was largely part to an inconsistent offensive line that saw several players being...

-
OU defense gives up big plays in 37-17 loss. On to big changes

U40: How much damage did this Missouri disaster do?
The Sooners held a 23-16 lead with 2:00 remaining in their matchup with Missouri. All they needed was one more defensive stop. It never came. And then Jackson Arnold fumbled the ball and Missouri scooped and scored to take an improbable 30-26 lead. The people are gonna want answers. Carey, Eddie...

Eskridge Lexus Postgame: What we take from OU's 59-14 win over Maine

-
Are we more or less upset after this loss to Ole Miss?
The Sooners headed to Ole Miss down a 20-point underdog. No one expected the Sooners to bring home a win, but they entered halftime with a 14-10 lead after Jackson Arnold and the OU offense put together a couple of methodical drives and the defense turned back the Rebels time and time again. But...

-
OU's offense officially embarrassing in 34-3 loss to Texas
The Sooners' offense has become one of the most inept units in the country. And today's 34-3 loss to Texas took things to a new low. With two weeks to prepare, the offensive staff laid an egg on the Cotton Bowl turf. Texas picked up those eggs and threw them at the OU defense, crushing their…

This offense and team have life after a 27-21 win over Auburn

more -
The offense is a disaster so OU starts over with Michael Hawkins Jr.
The Sooners lose to Tennessee 25-15 in one of the most frustrating offensive outings since Bob Stoops took over for John Blake in 1998. This OU offense hasn't just regressed, it's disappeared completely. It looks like Michael Hawkins Jr., will be the near future. But with lots of tough opponents...

Oklahoma's 51-3 win over Temple not exactly without flaws

Are the Sooners going to be an explosive offense in 2024?
