I think Pate is going on a hunch. This is a bad matchup for OU both personnel and scheme wise. Venables has the personnel to load the box and that is what he likes to do. Tennessee creates the conditions that demand a light box and will kill OU if they put seven in the box. We also have an excellent short game. I say we walk them in their house and serve notice to the rest of the SEC. WGWTFA.

Imma try to condense this..

He sees the same potential issues I do...Okies stopping the run on 1st and 2nd with front 6, this forcing 3rd and longs, thus giving Venables a chance to throw some stuff at Nico, which along with the crowd noise and Okies defensive energy being sky high causing several 3 and outs.

If none of that happens...it will be a blowout.

And you are right...it is a "hunch"

IIRC I think he also said, like I have several times, that if that stuff doesn't happen..that it will be a blowout.

I'm betting Heard plays--- they'll give him some cortisone via shot, tape it up and tell him to play smart... Next week is a bye week and then we won't need him at Arky, so get in there and protect Nico the first half at least...

Are we sure this OU defense is as good as ppl make it seem? From what I’ve watched, I’ve seen ppl throw on them. It looks like that will be there. I’ve watched every game this week.

Teams haven’t ran great on them but Tulane didnt get stuffed every play either.they were around 3.5-4 YPC and they sure as hell aren’t UTs ground attack.

It’s one thing to struggle against a lesser opponent in week 1 when you are still figuring stuff out. It’s another thing to do that three weeks in a row, and that is precisely what Oklahoma has done. It’s not like playing Tennessee is going to suddenly make their offense better.

42-17 Vols

And Tulane's defense was atrocious. Just terrible.

Well here's the tea on this whole game thread debacle. @OGbabyaviVol let @Glitch into the group chat. He keeps sending us Bette Midler risque pictures so @nicksjuzunk muted the group chat. Now he's disappeared. Probably in the mountains somewhere. @ob79 still hasn't muted but isn't helping the situation by pushing @Glitch to offer a draft to the group. @InVOLuntary is watching the chaos and shrugging his shoulders. It's a mess out here. View attachment 678444

It’s not a mess yet. As long as glitch keeps his filthy fingers off the keyboard and does not make a game thread, we are good until Nick finds time to make it. @Glitch remember the deal… If you make a single game thread, you’ll be removed from the super secret group chat.

That means they probably take our calls from Mincey. I don't blame them. Hopefully Heupel has the foresight to change our calls after the chicken debacle of '22.

Unforseen by many issue with the transfer craze.

Lol..at UK spending a lot of money out of their little pile of NIL to get meh guys from their rivals so they can know what their rivals are gonna do...and STILL getting their azz whipped.
