[@nightfighterfour4468]

The Academies play for pride, like in 'The Pride of Oklahoma' when Sooners played for pride. As someone who watched Bud Wilkinson at 7yrs old, I've seen 3 great eras. I doubt if I live long enough to see No 8, it's has been extremely evasive since the last one. Kapernick ruined it for me and the rest of commercial sports, now I am losing interest with my passion, Sooner football. The sport has become a subsidized training camp for the NFL while leaving loyalty and pride behind going for the highest bidder. I used to couldn't sleep after a game like yesterday, last night I sleep like a rock. Good bye, so long, It's been good to know ya; at least for today.

[@delraycollins1341]

This football team is a complete joke. 100% you go up by 14 points. And you do nothing else the rest of the game? The head coach has to take full responsibility. I would have told my offensive coordinator to keep on pushing the score up. What the hell? I wouldn't want to come to this team either.And that's a hundred percent hell no

[@bradleybeard3461]

[@JB-sc1tg]

One thing that has really annoyed me all season is this staff never makes in-game adjustments. We go up by 14, the Navy coach makes an adjustment, and we don't score again until 6 seconds left in the game. In all that time, not one person on the coaching staff said, "Hey, they made some changes. Maybe we should, too." We just keep doing the same thing over and over, with no results. That's why Brent is so good at losing games.

I’ve defended BV until tonight. His teams don’t handle success, or failure, his time management is sub par, obvious bad coaching hires and that doesn’t have anything to do with the lack of available players. We have a good defense because BV is a DC. I don’t see this team winning the 9 games (at least) for BV to keep his job. This is unacceptable.

​@johnjohnson1997 it cant be 7, 1 more win than this season wont save his job, hes backed himself into a corner where he damn near needs to make the playoffs

[@wademarquardt5296]

I think 8-4 in 2025 will save his job one more year as they see how they do when the brutal schedule flips. That will give one more year to lower the buyout. In 2026, if he is still here, he will need to win 9-10 games. He has coached himself into a big hole and needs to take the program under control because it’s a clown show right now. I say 80% chance that we’re in a coaching search this time next year. I just don’t think he’s up to it.

[@KillerBrees]

@@wademarquardt5296no way he goes 8-4 with this roster. Other than QB, our roster is going to be no better next year, and at some positions we will be worse, so I just don’t see how BV can turn this thing around. I just hope we can turn things around once BV is gone because if we hire another coach that fails after BV, we will be Nebraska for at least another 10 years.

Oklahoma is always on the wrong side of the record books since BV has taken over. These are patterns OU does not need. It’s embarrassing

[@DedHedRy]

As big of a BV fan as there is but…..he isn’t doing himself any favors by allowing the narrative to be what it is in regards to JJF and the TE room or even DM or EJ. JJF is a problem BV can fix yet he is just fixated on keeping him on board no matter (ow bad the recruiting, development and production has been in that room. DM and his rotations, if that’s what you call it, is headscratchingly maddening. I mean Gavin Sawchuk? XRob got what? 7,8 carries or something like that? That said, we saw this offense all year long and so did we expect anything different with even more backups playing and a dead,a walking calling plays? If you did that’s on you because we got what we have gotten all year long in 24’. Tj3 2024 team is who they have been and thank God the season is over.

Let me preface this by saying that I am a donor, season ticket holder, OU grad in the class of 1977. I have seen a lot of OU football in my 70 years on this earth. I have seen this movie before and it is not going to end well. For 3 years under John Blake it was " coaches don't make plays, we need to quit making these stupid mistakes, if we can just improve here and there things will get better!!" Nothing ever got better and then enter Bob Stoops. Suddenly those dumb mistakes went away. We need to stop the bleeding now. Sure we will suck in 2025 if we cut BV loose. I have news, we are going to suck with BV. Things aren't going to get better under his leadership. He has not shown any improvement as a decision maker....bottom line.

If BV kicks field goal in first half and punts the ball, game could be different. These teams are not disciplined, do not prioritize the little things. JJF schemes are a joke and put pressure on QB's that cant handle pressure. BV has failed in every aspect and I want him to win. 2025 is a program defining year and its 9 wins minimum or clean house.

[@asecmimosas4536]

I love Teddy but I think he's grading the defense on a bit too much of a curve. The defense gave up 226 yards rushing. 23 yards below their season average 249, but that was against the 87th ranked SOS in the FBS. 0 interceptions, 0 fumbles, 0 sacks. Navy has 19 fumbles, 8 lost, 6 INTs, and 11 sacks on the season. They aren't a team that never gives up negative plays. Gabe is right, Horvath had a bad day throwing the football. You can say they executed on 90% of plays, but Navy also had a 7.5 minute TD drive.

[@marruz0]

This is a spot on take. We played a service academy. Those navy boys are playing football as their part time gig. They’d probably all grade at 1 star or less. The defense played poor.

[@TandemTuba]

I think holding a triple option team under their season average is pretty good when your offense is unable to put together a meaningful drive for the last 44 minutes of the game. It's an exhausting offense to play against even in the best situation.

[@JoshRay-q2n]

Ill say this, MLB is the undisputed QB of the defense, he gets guys in the right places, makes the calls and makes sure everyones doing what they are supposed to be doing and not having Stuts out there hurt, not excusing the busts but it is what it is, this defense was plenty good enough to win 9 games this season with any semblance of an offense

[@TxLonghornsFan]

If Stutsman played that long run Navy had for a TD probably doesn’t happen. I could totally see him coming up from his linebacker spot to make that tackle and limit the gain from that play.

[@drwinstonOboogi]

Venables pissed away all the momentum by handing Navy a short field instead of punting. That's was the turning point of the game.

[@StrawHatTeen-k6i]

If Navy's QB could throw they would have had several more TD's as there were at least 4 plays with WR's for Navy that were wide open. Maybe BV needs to simplify this defense some. It's the same old same old where players screw up with their alignments and what they are supposed to do with the result usually being a big play.

[@mwright_boomer]

BV has set this program back a decade. Almost every decision he’s made seems to have been wrong. Outside of scheming up a defense, he doesn’t know what he’s doing. I wanted him to succeed so bad, but he needs to go

Letting DG walk for Arnold. He left. Letting Cale go. Not standing up for him. Not promoting him to begin with! Venables letting the offense go to crap. Hiring ex players that are incompetent.

I watch an unhealthy amount of college games and in literally all of them there are multiple times where I go "oh that was really clever" on a play design to get a skill player the ball.

This program is in disarray and donor money is being pissed away. I've heard more honesty from the media after this game (at the season end) and it is stinging. One listener on The Ref described the coming sunshine pumping we will receive in the spring from the University (propaganda) and he's correct. Just seems like everyone is back where I was at after the Missouri game. This team just gave up after the 1st qtr and that's on everyone from coaching on down. O-line quit.

[@wademarquardt5296]

There is one overriding difference between Navy and Oklahoma and that is discipline. It has trumped athleticism every time. Navy plays disciplined assignment sound football, and OU does not. Either we have uncoachable players or the coaching is below par. This marks Venables second losing season in three. If the buyout were not a constraint, would he still be here? We can talk about anomaly or aberration, but when it happens 67% of the time is it not an aberration it is the expected outcome. The “Standard” is losing football, unfortunately.

Someone said on the OU insider KZbin’s page recap of the bowl game said in the comments that Joe C (AD of OU) needs to get fired. And someone else said he should take the coaches too. (Fired) This is why I love this channel better than the OU insider KZbin channel. You guys do the better job at recapping games good or bad since you played it!! #sooners #OUDNA #brentvenables #oklahoma #oklahomasooners #oklahomafootball #soonernation #bomersooner

I really don’t know why the defense is considered soooo good??? It’s slightly above average!!

[@JB-sc1tg]

I agree. Anyone saying they are an elite defense is just flatout wrong.

[@marjorieanderson8626]

Because that delusion is all these people have to hang on to. It is sad... but it gives them some semblance of hope.

[@BranDZ7]

It doesn't help when they're on the field the entire game because the offense is worthless and they get worn out by half

[@CurtCoffman-yo4qe]

You guys r great as a team! Teddy is ranting about young players having to grow up right now and Gabe jumps in and says with his famous grin " I thought the O Line played well!" Enjoy u guys a lot! On the team - My expectations for these Young guys far exceeds their abilities. Next year will be a totally different team and I'm excited to see what they do! BOOMER

[@buddyryeSE]

My hope in this team is gone. Thanks for the content though. I am tired of being disappointed, so I’m gonna need to unplug from this team until August.

[@OspreyFlyer]

I did that last year. No OU content after year end. Any news I heard was happenstance . I'm out very soon.

[@jamesrsmith1984]

@@OspreyFlyer think I’ll do the same. This year has been bad on the nerves.

The whole season has been garbage..idk what to make of the future of OU football at this point...starting to think our big win against bama was luck and a few others were luck aswell.

BV sabotaged the game.

[@BobcatWabbit]

Disrespected Navy by going for it at their own 45 yard line, easy field distance for Navy. Lazy and went for the 2pts: odds are less than 50 % making it by the numbers technically. We couldn't make 4th and 1 all game long

What is Alley going to do?

[@billquantrill4960]

From the AD down it needs blown up because it isn't going to change. This is John Blake tier nonsense.

The University President down. They were the morons that did the contract with big extension, big raise and big buyout. They have put the program in a precarious position and their thinking skills look pretty poor.

[@ShaneRoberts-c7d]

Who should pick OU’s next head coach? Stoops? The president and Joe C need to be ousted

[@StrawHatTeen-k6i]

@@ShaneRoberts-c7d Stoops should not be a part of picking a HC for OU. He was when BV was hired and that didn't go very well. We let Dan Lanning slip away. OU needs a new AD who knows what he is doing. He should hire the next HC.

[@Will-h9b]

Well, Alley's gone. You'll be talking about that on Sunday.

[@markrondinelli9582]

I don’t think BV knows how to manage a complete team. Great guy, knows defense but the offense is horrible and players make too many mistakes. Also, he goes for it when he should punt, and he punts when he should go. Also clock issues and player management on game day is an issue. He seems to want to get as many players in the game as possible instead of winning the game. Like yesterday, no Mitchell but Sam Franklin gets in the game. Makes no sense.

[@hoodleehoo]

Can you please update once you've watched the tape?

[@Wow-qs5du]

For me I truly believe the game is won and lost in the trenches. Bring in any QB you want..but spend the money at OL load that line up so whatever qb you have can show off his ability.

[@lexingtonconcord8751]

Fire Joe Jon Finley, Demarco Murray, and Emmit Jones.
