What other message boards are saying (Oklahoma Post Game Edition)

Counting the loss to us. I see four total. Texas, Ol Miss, Alabama. Maybe a coin flip LSU game.

I will definitely be rooting for them against the first three though.
LSU should’ve lost to Carolina if not for the refs in that debacle. Can we finally call BS on the narrative that Kelly is some kind of top five coach in college football?
 
I don’t think Texas and Oklahoma fully understand what it’s like to play in the SEC, but they are gonna learn… real quick 😂
Last night was OU’s first double digit home loss since the Obama administration. It’s not going to be 8 years until the next one though. Can’t hide behind the soft as Charmin “Big” 12 anymore.
 
-This game was over midway through the 2nd quarter. Heupel knew it and ran the clock the rest of the game. It could have been really ugly.

-It's easy to win in Knoxville. OU Will do just that next season with an even better defense and a much improved offense.

-We could play Tennessee 10 times and not beat them. Completely dominant

-This is an all-timer “Score kinda close, but really a blowout” kinda game.

-Tennessee did not impress. After all I've heard, I expected a lot more than that.

-Tennessee will lose 4 games this year. Not impressed.

-Tennessee would have thrown the ball down the field more if they needed to…and I think they’d have had success doing so. So hard to say we’d have won, we’d have been more competitive. Tennessee would not have spent most of the 2nd half running the ball into a loaded defensive front.

-Not saying Tennessee isn’t a good team, but not nearly as impressive as what we were sold.

-34 yards rushing and 4 turnovers and lost by 10 to the best offense in the SEC.

-Great win for Josh.....happy for him after what happened here. Meritocracy always beats nepotism.

-We might have won this game if Hawkins was the starter. We will be ok moving forward.

-Hats off to Heupel for the good sportsmanship. Thought he’d run up the score. Glad I was wrong.

-Sooo… the ref with the Tennessee accent was reviewing everything?

-Defense did very well except for some downfield passes to Bru. Heupel knew he had the win so opted to not go for the total kill or at least that's what I think happened in the 2nd half. Hawkins shows to be the next direction.

-Tennessee is the luckiest team on the planet that we didn’t start Hawkins. We would’ve blown them out.

-I’m pissed because Tennessee isn’t even a good team.

-The refs obviously protected Tennessee tonight. Clear as day.
Usually, the refs have Bama accents...OU will find out soon enough...lol
 
Ole Miss/LSU maybe a wins but their offense has to get it going. Otherwise, they will lose all 4 games.
I don't think they hang with Ole Miss, but LSU and Mizzou could get beaten by that OU defense. Weird how their offense is so anemic.

I think Heupel played the Kiffin/2008/Bama gameplan to perfection after halftime. Coach understood their pass rush was good enough to disrupt the pocket consistently and would lead to more UT turnovers, which was the only way OU could win that game in the 2nd half last night. He ran plays that just sucked OU's oxygen out of them. I didn't figure out the plan until halfway through the 3rd quarter. He saw their offense was not going to give them the leverage to win, and only turnovers could balance the score.

--edit-- It is nice to have the coaching staff that makes the effective adjustments at halftime. We haven't had that in so long.
 
Got to be honest if Banks left for a head coaching job I would love to have him as DC. I think Inge is probably who we go with but obviously there is a lot of history with Heupel and him.
Who? Venables? No f'ing way he would come here as a DC under CJH. He'll go NFL before going back to a coordinator job in college.
 
This part in the article gave me a chuckle:

"Well, if you were wondering who has the best defense in the SEC, it's Oklahoma."


I agree a lot of people saw the best defense in the SEC last night. It was just on the other side of the field of Oklahoma.
 
The whiny ones don’t represent the majority imo. Heard only one in my area doing a Tourette’s thing. All others were classy and good sports. They detested their playcalling, of course.
Wonder if you were near me in 18 row 6, most annoying guy to have ever sat behind me, had an awful voice and loved to hear it. Didn’t come back after half-time lmao
 
Their defense had our number. We floundered the whole game. In typical Tennessee fashion, we had some lightning strikes to give us the opportunity to score. I am struggling with the question of if we are just not as good as advertised on offense or if their defense is really that solid.
And someone better address Nico getting hit and fumbling/int. That's 4 times between NCST and OK. Georgia and Alabama will feast.....
