Gameday Rewind: A couple days later, we're taking another look at what happened at Missouri.

[@reiderhunt]

I am watching, liking, and commenting for you guys. Not because of this football team. Has to be brutal covering this shit. You all deserve better. We all do.

[@Jaduder405]

[@stiflr83]

I just feel that they are more forward with their observations than those from OU Insider.

[@DedHedRy]

The fact we had Jalil and Burks back but decided to feature Bauer Sharp instead is just mind blowing. Mind blowing that you have those option, you have been dying to get them back and then when they do they don’t use them whatsoever. Just crazy.

[@christophermorales1509]

JA couldn’t see them. He can’t find anyone down the field. So you get sweeps with your TE.

[@TheMightyHaefs]

Sooners fan from Minnesota here. Never been to Norman but once the schedule came out months ago, I immediately scheduled a trip for the Bama weekend. Never, ever in my worst nightmare did I expect the program to be in this state. I’m very worried about this game being over after the first couple possessions. Thank you for grinding through this tho Eddie and George. You guys deserve a Purple Heart (I wish I was joking)

[@mattfrench6506]

I don't know if I'm emotionally ready for this, but I'm here.

Besides Texas, name one quality win for Brent? A lot of terrible losses!

[@shadowone5519]

Damn Eddie and George you bring in Josh and he hardly gets to talk especially Eddie lol

[@ruscopcoltrain]

Exactly. They went off on the Instant React and the post-game pod. And keep doing it here instead of letting Josh talk. Ridiculous.

[@Larry-t3v]

I'll definitely tune in to your Alabama game, one that I'm sure I'll enjoy. And next I'll tune in your LSU game, aka the no-bowl game. Happy fumbling, big guy!

[@joshmhaynes1]

Just think if that’s a targeting call at the end “which it was” they are set up at the 50 with a timeout left.

[@chadrobinson3163]

And then Jackson’s fumble would’ve gone for a 50 yard td instead of a 35 yarder 😂

[@joesee4448]

Id recommend stopping the interchanging each week of team Captains. I think the offense needs a leaders voice that is constant. Hard to be that leader when each week its someone elses voice being heard. Its obviously not the fix to the issues, it gives me almost "participation trophy" mentaility vibes.

[@stern_standard]

Most good HC get things turned around fast. 1. Nick Saban 2. Kirby Smart 3. Curt Ciginetti 4. Kalen DeBoer UW time for a new coach. Plus they gotta start over on offense anyway next season.

[@richardchambers5936]

Time for you to grow up none of those coaches are coming to Oklahoma

[@stern_standard]

@@richardchambers5936 time to get your IQ up. that was not the point dummy. good coaches turn things around fast was the point.

[@DedHedRy]

BV is not making personnel decisions so I’m not sure why it’s on him. No HC makes those decisions and I don’t even know how BV would be able to make a decision like playing Robinson. Again when our offense goes up against our defense in practice I’m sure it’s hard to tell who should be playing anywhere because they have to be dominated by our D. I’m sure he started out on the scout team as well, which would be normal with a kid they are trying to change his body and get him ready to be the guy. I’ll keep saying it. I realize there is a large portion of the fan base ready to get rid of BV and there is no doubt he made a major mistake putting the offense in Seth’s hands but now that everyone knows where the offensive side of the ball is I still believe that BV should get the opportunity to fix it next year and if it’s bad again then he needs to go and that’s an easy decision to make which right now it really is t as easy as a lot of people make it. My question is who is the coach that you would go out and hire that is a guaranteed success? We go out and hire a new HC and he also doesn’t work just think about the fact if we get rid of Brent this year we will lose a ton of talent, especially on the defensive side of the ball which is ranked 11 right now and so then it wouldn’t just be the offense needing to be fixed but also the defense. I would rather take that $44 million and spend the hell out of NIL. If we don’t make the right hire next time then we are really really in trouble. I know we are in trouble now but it’s one side of the ball that needs corrected and that in itself would put us where we want to be. In that scenario it took one more year than what we had hoped. We don’t make the right hire next time we aren’t just talking a year. MIT could last for the next 10 years which we saw UT just go through. I do get everyone has lost confidence in BV but when you look at everything outside of the offense, throughout the entire program, BV has done a great job. We need a QB to come in and if JA wants to stay and compete then great but we cannot count on JA anymore and that’s on him. Wherever he goes he is going to want to compete. Who in the country is going to want him?

[@christophermorales1509]

You don’t know how the head coach would even be able to decide which RB should play? Then I don’t know why we pay him $7M per year.

[@richardchambers5936]

@@christophermorales1509 not to micro manage everything you're just a hater pure and simple

[@joehumphrey1367]

I stated on Soonerscoop about the time he got off the plane that it is only going down from here. This was a bad hire day 1 when they could have hired Dan Lanning!

[@adamrusch7112]

That should be the last time JA steps on the field in a SOONER uniform, PERIOD!

[@jimfitzgibbon5492]

I think what missing here with the Offense was the timing of Lebby leaving. We were about to have sighing day. How you going to get offensive players to sigh with no OC.Brett did What he did in hiring Seth Littrell, he did not have the time to do research in getting the right OC. It was a huge mistake. But as said above it was timing with signing day. I think with the Right OC things can be find in the future.

[@DavidSmith-ou3sl]

That is the job of the HC. It's his responsibility and his alone. He isn't it.

[@Postman700]

Can we please play Casey Thompson the rest of the season?! Jackson has to go. A decent QB would have won that game easily!

[@RylzMunkister]

Should've had some form of assistant head coach for game situation decisions (*cough GUNDY cough). Literally average decision-making ability would give us 3 wins back in 2022, one or two last year, and one or two this year.

[@MichaelBebout]

OU lost that game in the last 2 minutes. Prevent D. just prevents you from winning. Thomas was allowed to get to the QB one time then they tried to play cover. and Mizzo drove the field with a long pass play if you're attacking the QB that play doesn't have time to develope.

[@ShaneHorsley]

[@ericlucas3502]

Why don’t they use Hawkins as receiver since they have some many injuries?

[@mattbowen9751]

Going all the way back to spring ball, then into summer, and even in fall ball we have been talking about the offense not being able to score and we repeatedly brushed off concerns by saying any offense would struggle if they faced our defense every day… when in reality time has shown that our offense was bad then and now. Coaches gotta see that stuff. Huge blind spot. Huge miss.

[@shadowone5519]

Don’t you think the only way some of the star receivers etc stay is if we fired BV and got an inspiring coach or however you put it

[@Ephesians28n9]

Makes no sense. Yea let's be aggressive with 1 min left in the game when the defense knows you have to pass. Maybe different if JA completed any kind of down the field passes earlier. Venables should have played it safe, used his timeouts, and only get aggressive if they happen to get near mid field.

[@joehumphrey1367]

Let me help you Josh, Coach Ned the Third Reader! That is what you are trying to say.

[@jstand6846]

Keep brent, use the buyout money to get a home run at OC. Open up qb competition for 2025.

[@lukenagode3462]

Can talk about the last drive all you want but to expect the defense to hold an SEC opponent under 20 points (especially on the road) week in and week out is asinine

[@shadowone5519]

It did occur to the commentators George. One said I can see a turnover here (on that OU series where JA turned it over )

[@DedHedRy]

The absence of leadership on the offensive side is a major problem as well. JF was supposedly that one leader but outside of him who is it? When things get tough who gets them right? JA is the the one sucking the energy out of everyone so when your QB is the guy responsible for so many problems I’m not sure how you or anyone could survive this situation. Gibson was also a major voice in that room from what we have heard and we know he’s a dog and so the only two leaders on offense have been out the whole season. Does that give us more wins? It very well could have Saturday night and negative emotions and a screwed up mentality in sports is devastating. You have to have confidence when playing ball and with the QB play how do you find any of that?

[@longkneemcgee1737]

Run the ball

[@jaetoncary6956]

George does seem like he’d be a passenger princess

[@Im_Old_Gregg]

Yeah let's not pretend we weren't all in on Brent Venables as a fanbase. I'm not sure if he's the guy or not. It doesn't look good right now obviously. I think he has to hire the right guy and hand the offensive side of the ball over completely to that guy. And get a functional QB. I haven't given up on Hawkins but I have given up on JA. They're going to need to go get a high dollar rental and let Hawkins develop.

[@Sooner_Smith]

Until we get our guys back, we don’t know whether BV is the guy. Ridiculous these guys continue to ignore the injuries and act like BV has his full deck on offense. We could be a 1 loss team with everyone back, no one knows.

[@ruscopcoltrain]

The number of times Eddie or George asked Josh a question and then the other guy answered and didn't let Josh talk. It's insane. I thought at least part of the conceit of this show is letting Josh have his say about the game. If that's the case, LET HIM FUCKING TALK. You guys had your say for an hour on the postgame pod AND the instant reaction video. Like an hour and a half of mostly you bitching about these games (and rightly so, given these performances). But let that be enough and give Josh his opportunity here. Also, and this also happens on the U40, but I swear man, almost any time Eddie asks Josh a question, he proceeds to explain the question for another minute or so after he asks it, even if it's the most obvious-ass question to answer. Drives me crazy. I love the show(s), but you guys have to tighten it up.

[@Kevin-f3l9l]

Done with Jackson Arnold. He is a turnover waiting to happen. He is not a championship kind of quarterback. But hey he is a great young man who is trying. Something just isn't right with Oklahoma. That usually points to the Head coach He is living on borrowed time.

Guys, your emotions regarding OU are confusing your reality of the SEC. I know OU has beaten the best of the SEC during seasons of the past. However, the reality is we play SEC teams weekly. The weak or under-paid programs in the SEC are better than the middle to upper Big12 teams. Recruiting and NIL keeps your program relevant these days. Now having seen SEC teams, does OU have all the conference 1st teamers fans talked about in the preseason? I say HECK NO!! #28 (may be the only player on All Conference team) has lots of tackles but is he SEC 1st teamer? BREATHE!!

And also, how many times this season have they missed a turnover opportunity and then allowed a TD the next play? Has to to be at least 4 to 5 times

[@JDUBB2399]

99% of the time, it's not his fault, the corners are blowing coverages, and the only reason that missouri scored a td was a bs holding call and Jacobe Johnson slipping, which is just unlucky.
