I really enjoy this podcast, even as a Texas fan. I think Tennessee is under more pressure here. They are good, but have they really been tested by a good defense? My horns are good, but the same question applies with our defense..have they played anyone with a top flight offense? I think this will be a tight one. Venebles will bring exotic pressures that Nico hasn't seen. I think they will confuse him.
Well said…people are assuming TN’s offense is elite, but OU’s defense doesn’t seem to be assumed in the same light. Even though OU’s defense is more proven. (So many returning starters, and they were borderline elite as a unit last year) I’m just saying. . . I think between OU’s defense and TN’s offense someone is going to be exposed as being overrated. And I don’t think it’s going to be OU. . . TN may still win, but the assuming that they are just going to run up the score on Ou is what’s insane to me. TN haven’t played an even halfway decent defense. I can’t wait for this game.
I do expect venebles to have nice scheme for this game but it is hard to get exotic with the way Tennessee spreads the field and how fast they snap the ball. Uga got pretty exotic a few times in 22 but I don't think this OU defense has the same personnel. 2022 uga was an all time roster
I'm sure Nico is a good kid and I hope he has a great NFL career. That being said we need to make his life a living hell on Saturday. That means players and fans and especially R. Mason
Whoever gets more of the obvious stuff right wins this game. Turnovers, efficiency/assignment soundness, making the layups, and time of possession. We don’t need any heroes. We just need guys doing their jobs well.
That’s not how they do it. Quiet until OU offense does something good. If PU gets behind by more than 10, crowd will be out of game even when OU on defense. Spoiled fair weather fans.
I agree with Gabe y'all may have to say F it and max protect some a bit and just run 2/3 man routes and what Teddy said about running some screen/shovel plays must be incorporated to keep them off balance and slow them down
Tennessee's DL against our OL gives me real worries. I wonder if Jackson Arnold makes it though the game the way our OL has been playing. PLay slow, time of possession might be our best hope. We can't afford 30 second 3 and outs.
Force Tenn to hurry up 3 and outs like we saw from OU under lebby. Start with a slow methodical offense to keep Tenn off field and out of sync. Once advantage has been established and Tenn defense is tired of being on field, hit them with hurry up.
I'm worried that JA may not get out of this game Healthy. Our OL and RBs must block to give WRs time to get open. I'm confident in our Defense we will sow them down but not stop them.. I see a game 28 -17 TENN.. Best case OU wins on a DEF TD.
Our crowd impact will NEVER be SEC caliber until 2 things happen. 1. we get younger fans. 2. We get a new crowd engagement team or the current CET learns how to do their job better.
I believe that we are gonna unleash nic Anderson on some deep threat routes. That will soften up the Tennessee defense and allow us to snag a victory in a hard fought win.
Tennesse had 212 yards and 13 points offensively in the first half vs NC State: one possession taken away from the pick 6. Not sure saying NC State stopped the TN offense in the first half is super accurate.
tempo is the most moronic option ever in this game. Tennessee is better hands down. Their 3rd set of DL's are still better than our offensive line. The best option is to slow and shorten the game...hope Nico has a couple of turnovers. The more plays that happen the better team usually wins. Defensively I think we are pretty close to them...but offensively we aren't close right now.
We don't know yet whether or not Tennessee is the best team in the country (they might be), so treat this one like we made it to the playoff and play balls out to win. At the same time, stay healthy because this is just the first SEC game and we will have more big time opportunities later in the season to make a statement if this one happens to get away from us.
Nobody giving us a chance even most OU fans dont even believe in what they have seen so far. Long season ahead if Saturday ends in a multiple score loss
@grumpybuffalo I remember years ago when Abe Lemons, former great BBall coach at OCU then Texas, was doing commentary on TV about probably a UT game as I don't remember, but it was a blowout by early second half and he said on a widely televised game, "You know this game is over when they're putting the white guy in!" Hilarious, I almost fell to the floor laughing.
Let’s not overcomplicate it. Our OL will be dominated by a bona fide SEC DL and our defense will eventually break as a result. Tennessee embarrasses us in our first SEC game. And we should be embarrassed with what we are fielding.
Stating how much we need the crowd to play a factor kinda underlines how inferior we are in certain aspects of the game. Like if we didnt have the home field advantage, what would be the tone in the messaging for this game? Seem like it would be a "lets hope for the best" hail marry. Not very encouraging🙃
Nico is an overrated, entitled, unproven, untested phony. He is gonna get exposed against our elite defense. I’m not worried about Nico. Wait til he gets cracked in the back by one of our d lineman. He will make some typical freshman mistakes and earn an L for his team.
A lot of the old people in my section usually stay the whole game. The only time I see them leave early is the early games when it’s very hot! The students though need to get better…

@@Bogeymania Big plays are going to happen. I wish we could hold every team to 50 yards a game and 0 points but that’s not realistic. All I want is a defense that doesn’t give up long play touchdowns and holds teams to field goals instead of touchdowns in the red zone. If we can get a few guys back and have an average offense at least I think our defense is good enough to take us really far.
I just watched the game with Tenn vs NC St and if NC St could tackle, I’m not sure Tenn wins that game. Even though they couldn’t tackle they held with them decently through the first half. After that NC St just gave up…… to be honest I hadn’t watch really any of the Tenn games this year, until now. All I’ve been doing is listening to everyone say OU has absolutely no chance against Tenn. All that negativity has had me a little worried about this game, but after watching the NC St game I’m not worried at all and wish I didn’t have to work on Saturday. Boomer. If you are one of the talking heads saying OU’s going to get drug through the mud……Wait for it…
Tennessee hasn't played a team willing to drop back and pass. Been all quick passes which is why the back end hasn't really been tested thus far. I think oklahoma will actually try to run traditional pass plays with real drop backs.

We dominated up front against Texas last year by making their fat boys run side to side. If we can get their ole big fellas tired we may have a chance to run some clock. If we can run the clock that gives us a slight chance of keeping the game close, if we can keep the game close we have an even smaller chance of getting the win. Imo this plays out 3 ways. Our offense is electric with the guys we get back and we try to get into a shootout. Score ends 45-42 leaning Tennessee. Other is we are able to run clock and keep the score lower around 28-24 leaning ou. Third is the nightmare scenario, they get an early lead and force us to rely on our passing attack which has sucked so far. If that’s the case we lose 42-17
Teddy Lehman should be replaced by rocky calmus. Teddy doesn’t know anything about defense. Teddy played in constant state of confusion when he was at OU and I see the same confused look in teddy on this podcast.
The host starts out this podcast with “what more could we as fans want“? The answer of course is quite a bit, a lot. How about an offense that is fully prepared to be competitive at the highest level? How about an OL that is ready to compete at the level equal to the millions of dollars we as fans pay the OL coach? So yes, we as fans could want much more than we’re getting right now. The possibility of being embarrassed as a program on a national stage by a far lesser program is not all that we could want. 🤮
Lesser program? Better stadium, check. Larger fanbase, check. More money, check. Decades in a real conference, check. You have heisman winners. That’s it.

Speaking of the crowd. Two words: student section. Embarrassing last weekend.
Five words? Or the period is a superficial stop before ending the point? Anyway, I agree
Student section has been horrible since Riley's last year
I'm sure Nico is a good kid and I hope he has a great NFL career. That being said we need to make his life a living hell on Saturday. That means players and fans and especially R. Mason
RMT needs a breakout game that has everyone talking … he is capable of it
Let’s give this tall unproven freshman a sooner nation beat down!!!
Whoever gets more of the obvious stuff right wins this game. Turnovers, efficiency/assignment soundness, making the layups, and time of possession.
We don’t need any heroes. We just need guys doing their jobs well.
If you’re going to the game. Don’t wait for the defense to do something to make some noise. Make some noise to help them get going. Boomer!!!!!
That’s not how they do it. Quiet until OU offense does something good. If PU gets behind by more than 10, crowd will be out of game even when OU on defense. Spoiled fair weather fans.
Tennessee goes so fast it takes the crowd out of it once they start driving. It’s hard for the crowd to get up and yell every 10 seconds ha
One thing that will help is if the defense provides the offense with a few short fields. And Oklahoma cashes in with touchdowns.
Teddy made me feel a little better and Gabe made me feel a little worse 😂 im so excited for this game
Everyone wants to talk about who Oklahoma is. They will show you who Oklahoma is.
You are wild for the take on the Tennessee safety Gabe lol
He was an All-American Center for 3 years. He probably knows more than your keyboard.
You whiffed on the sarcasm Buddy. Smh
Can we get more of that 3 tight end set? And run the clock. The shorter the game the better chance to keep the defense rested and the score minimal.
That's my thought. Limit TN's possessions and shorten the game. Play keep away
Make Nico feel it early and often. Need to be making Nico Burritos
Let’s put Nico on his back and stomp him.
Bring the. Houses stay in his face he will make mistakes
I agree with Gabe y'all may have to say F it and max protect some a bit and just run 2/3 man routes and what Teddy said about running some screen/shovel plays must be incorporated to keep them off balance and slow them down

Maybe we do max protect like the crap teams we played last year. Last ditch effort.
Tennessee is in for one hell of a game
Tennessee ain’t ready for this defense!
Force Tenn to hurry up 3 and outs like we saw from OU under lebby.
Start with a slow methodical offense to keep Tenn off field and out of sync.
Once advantage has been established and Tenn defense is tired of being on field, hit them with hurry up.
Win the time of possession and keep Tennessee's offense off the field.
There's only one problem with that ... we don't care about time of possession. We score fast and often GBO

No shit Gabe is critically important for corners to always play well
Almost everything they say is “no shit”, but it’s fun to listen to
I think boot could be very advantageous this week. Make their d line go side to side
I think we should go down to the last second before we snap the ball,to keep there snaps down 😮😮😮

Stop the run and force the FR QB to beat you. Thats the recipe!
Well, that is true. One side of the ball has a horrific OL, which is OU, it is not a good recipe for Arnold
Only problem is Tennessee will have the same plan, and unlike OU, has a highly potent running game and freshman QB
I like our chsnces

Does anybody know if Oklahoma tried to recruit Nico?
Does it matter?

The host starts out this podcast with “what more could we as fans want“? The answer of course is quite a bit, a lot. How about an offense that is fully prepared to be competitive at the highest level? How about an OL that is ready to compete at the level equal to the millions of dollars we as fans pay the OL coach? So yes, we as fans could want much more than we’re getting right now. The possibility of being embarrassed as a program on a national stage by a far lesser program is not all that we could want. 🤮
Lesser program? Better stadium, check. Larger fanbase, check. More money, check. Decades in a real conference, check. You have heisman winners. That’s it.
@@bigorangebrandon Bwahaha you forgot concession sales! Typical tier 3 program. The bluebloods like OU are built on wins and championships, not how many hot dogs you sell. 🤣
@@tps55555 Your most recent title is literally two years after ours. I’m not saying OU isn’t a great program. I’m just saying Tennessee is too. Admit it, or don’t. It’s the truth.
@@bigorangebrandon Tennessee is a fine program. It’s not blueblood royalty but it’s a fine program. You’re the one that took offense when I said Tennessee was a lesser program to Oklahoma, which is obvious to anyone by any metric. Anywho GL on Saturday, y’all definitely caught us at the right time.
