Will Seth Littrell's Offense Use a Ton of Tempo? + Most Improved OU Player Since Spring?

Gabe Ikard and Teddy Lehman answer the following listener questions about OU football in 2024:
1) Wishbone Willy- How fast do you think the offense will go this year? IMO the offense the last few years have been like a Ferrari with one speed. Will there be more nuance to the hurry up under Littrell?
2) Phil Lawson- Which player has markedly taken the biggest step forward towards reaching their full potential over the summer and thus far into fall camp? 1 for O and 1 for D. Percent of plays the O will use a traditional TE? Will we use any 2-back sets?

Tempo has always had a time and place, but we have overused it. BV knows the plan, and if he allows it and it is not successful it’s on him.

[@charlestarver2744]

I think tempo is a good thing however I do think it should be more balanced there a situations that we need to slow down and just pound their defense and give our defense a chance to catch their breath

[@charlestarver2744]

I don't remember what analyst said it but I saw on a sec analyst said that Danny okoya was actually the best and most underrated player in his class outside of quarterback

[@scottybabb6297]

Hi guys, I never miss an episode of your informative show! I’m a lifelong Sooner fan. My 63rd birthday is September 2. BOOMER!

[@albooalboodotnet494]

The personnel grouping I think would terrify defenses is Burks, Pettaway, and Thompson on the field at the same.

[@carvanok4226]

Michigan went undefeated and won the national championship with far less talent than Oklahoma. Michigan had discipline, conditioning, and physicality. In terms of tempo, I do not mind as long as the offensive line can dominate the line of scrimmage. Dion Berks measurable are impressive in terms of weight room prowess.

[@Brocktoney40]

We better only use it in certain situations because last year it showed and hurt us.

[@CODYj423]

To think that Billy Bowman Jr is that much better than last season is exciting!

[@albooalboodotnet494]

On tight end "as good a blocker as receiver" - I want Trey Millard. Not a TE with hand in the ground but can block great and he a problem for a defense to predict how to match up against him.

[@albooalboodotnet494]

I so wish the guy they said is close to reaching his potential - PJ

[@jaymoore2154]

I don't mind lining up fast, I just don't like snapping the ball so quickly

[@albooalboodotnet494]

One number that proves how great the tempo offense can be: 2008

[@robertadams8548]

What famous Comedian went to Temple? Gundy is correct saying in so many words “Tell your Agent to STFU! on Money, Time to Cocentrate on your Job!

[@chrisoconnor9042]

Out of context, the way Gabe says "so many tight ends" doesn't sound right. 😆

[@goingoneight]

Oklahoma caught Florida in substitution issues multiple times in 2008 and Clempsun gassed Alabama in the CFP multiple times with fast tempo offense. There's your answer why.

[@mikeymo4]

One example of a National Champ, thats it. But not really. Clemson didnt run tempo as their base offense-they used it situationally to their advantage. Give it up.

[@MOJOERASER]

Teddy Jaydens Injured lol must of been recorded weeks ago

[@toddcagle5494]

I just wonder does the tempo offense wear them down by 6,7th game of the season

[@XxsoonerbornxX]

I cannot stand tempo offense. We won't ever sniff a title until we get rid of it.

[@lesterakalezer9891]

Confirmed🫡

[@RedFeather_74840]

I thi'm kind of fifty-fifty. Both tempo and kind of something that we ran back in the 70s and 80s maybe.an pounding the ball

[@SubZero86x]

Situational tempo is fine. Pushing the tempo when an opponent is really struggling defense wise I'm fine with, but when you're trying to run the clock and it's a one score game there is no place for it. Lebby was a moron when it came to tempo and game management. He cost us a few games in 2022 and it cost us the Kansas game in 2023.

[@Wes-b7v]

That's your opinion

[@DominicJGomez]

Tempo totally can win a championship. Based on your defense. But I would prefer a strong run centric game as well

[@geraldpreston817]

Vrry highly now

[@lesterakalezer9891]

Cant play Moneyball and make all decisions on stats. The eye test tells me Tempo doesnt win championships.

[@user-hn2zw8pv6c]

Most improved Jake Taylor and RMT

[@soonernation37]

We will use a ton of open holes to make our QB eun for his life..he will then proceed to throw across his body and throw interceptions. Thats whats gonna happen.

[@Wes-b7v]

Where'd you get your crystal ball

[@kensterling5217]

​@@Wes-b7v Sooner Nation37 is Not an OU Fan, He just Trolls OU pages, probably a Bevo Luv'r.....🙄🤣🤣

[@royals1833]

​@@kensterling5217either that, or he's the most negative sooner I've ever seen. Nothing but negative comments everywhere I look

[@alpha_gospel]

Tempo sucks. Teddy please have an intervention with BV.

[@rpoutlaw86]

I HATE the uptempo

[@mikeymo4]

Tempo sucks. Lebby sucks. Miss. State about to find out. Also, return to huddling! Anyone notice Michigan huddling in the Natty last year?

[@geraldpreston817]

Stop post as new info guys....come on... One day a week must be hell

[@joshuamccall8043]

Tempo is stupid and gimmicky

[@formallyknownasjojoemcpart6684]

Hate to say it but offensively I miss L.R. and his offense.

[@lesterakalezer9891]

What

[@davidschulte7516]

I miss L.R.QBs

[@Texas2005-k5y]

OU will be the Old Texas Tech north.
