Oklahoma Sooners PostgameOU loss to Texas puts real problems out in the open on offenseCarey, 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 has become a huge problem. Not to mention Jaydn Ott was supposed to be a big answer to that problem. But he lasted about as long today as some employees at SoonerScoop that are never spoken of again. Should John Mateer have played? He looked...

Staying away from the rat poisonThe Sooners won one of the biggest matchups of the early college football season against Michigan.

Or is this just a united front for signing day? And who will be OU's quarterback in 2025? Is it better to sign Washington State's John Mateer in the portal for instant chemistry? Or should the Sooners try and stick behind Jackson Arnold, mend those fences and rely on his ceiling and potential to lead the offense...

The offense built on their run game after last week's success against Ole Miss a week ago. Jovantae Barnes had a career day with 203 yards on the ground and is starting to show the reason he was so highly thought of even after battling injuries earlier in his career. Jackson Arnold came up with explosive plays in the passing game, including a 90-yard TD pass to J.J. Hester. The longest ever by an OU receiver on Owen Field. The defense gave...

Carey, Josh, Eddie and George have plenty to say. Some of it had to be bleeped out. Is Brent Venables forced to make changes offensively after the most recent loss? Where does Bill Bedenbaugh sit in all of this? The offensive line is terrible. And it's killing this season.

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 spirit with every three-and-out from Seth Littrell's offense. Carey, Eddie and George convene to talk about what we saw today and how bad it really was. The questions are being asked. Should Seth Littrell be relieved of playcalling duties? Should he be fired...

In this episode we talk about the QB change from Jackson Arnold to Michael Hawkins Jr. We also breakdown the position coaches on offense. Who is pulling their weight? Anyone? Blocking has become a massive issue for this offense. Turnovers at the worst time as well. Can Hawkins step up and fill the void against a stiff Auburn defense? How will the defense replace Kendel Dolby at the cheetah position...
