6/20 passing (30%) 41 yards, 0 TDs, 3 Int. Just saying, first starts are not predictive.

Strong go ignore button today. 😂

Looks like a perfect fit for him. Sad to see him leave.

R Mason Thomas showed what he can be when he is healthy and just think how good with another off season he can be. I think the DL next yr is gonna be damn good. Thomas and PJ coming off the edge with Terry/Lacey/Stone/Jackson coming up the middle… that’s a damn good D Line. LB group is loaded with a ton of potential with younger guys, love watching Kip Lewis out there with Stutsman. Offense is gonna be electric as long as the O Line holds up, and I know BB is gonna get that group right and have them ready. WR room is just funny at how much talent and how deep that room is. A healthy Sawchuk/Barnes duo can be one of the best RB duos in the country. Not to mention the future heisman QB we got running the offense. Is it gonna be tough next yr? Absolutely. But we got the right players and coaches to make a run at a natty in the next 2 yrs. 2023 season is over and behind us, forget about it and let’s move on. Only 246 days until its kickoff time in Norman! 2024 season will be here before we know it.

that's all I have to say

I’m relatively new here and certainly new to the commenting game. But I do want to say, in my short time here I’ve seen a lot of people that claim to be subject matter experts in recruiting, offensive playcalling, defensive, playcalling, and game management. I didn’t know if you guys knew this, but the university has an email where you can send your résumé and cover letter and an attempt to be hired. Maybe you could be the one to correct all the wrongs that you guys see and lead the University of Oklahoma to consistent number one recruiting classes and national championships. The rest of us “sunshine pumpers“ are rooting you on from our couches. by the way, the email address to send your resumes to is careercenter.ou.edu. I look forward to the progress you guys make in our institution.

Now

I see he is the only one that hasnt signed. Is he heading someplace else? He is one of the best athletes from the state of Oklahoma.

Farooq costs OU 21 pts, stays on the field. Even after being largely responsible for other costly turnovers in past games. Freeman should not be on the field, the list goes on and on and nobody is ever pulled. David Ugwaebu avoiding contact and jogging to the ball week after week last year, same with Broiles those guys never had to be accountable. The program will never be at the top if guys know they will start just based on age.

I think it's pretty simple, gotta get better and more productive on both o and d lines. Hit portal and add anything you believe to be better than you currently have. It all starts up front for both sides of the ball and when you are solid there, it makes everything else look better. We were able to get good pressure last night, but it took blitzing to get it and we all know issues on offensive line.

There was definitely a lot of encouraging and downright great stuff from the offense tonight. Seth Littrell definitely showed he has some ability.

But my goodness, run the football some.

I get that the o-line was shuffled around a lot for this game and the run-blocking looked poor at times, but you gotta stay balanced.

At this point, with possible additions coming later in the Transfer Portal, the 2024 Front-Four looks like a combination of maturity and experience with youthful talent. Da'Jon Terry, Jacob Lacey, and Trace Ford played a lot in 2023, and will be playing their sixth (6th) season of college football in 2024. All have great experience and also have a full year in OU's defensive system, which puts them in a position to mentor the incoming freshmen.

Each "Grad" player listed below will be entering his sixth (6th) college football season in 2024.
Nigel Smith is listed at DE below, but has the capability to move inside.

Plain and simple

Got the 3rd CB dropped on him today. 1st from Lunatic Loy and 2 from tOSU insiders. Are these just homer picks or are there real smoke with Robert’s and tOSU?

My gawd it will be a long 9 months to watch a 6-6 at best Sooners...

The Sooners' final game of the 2023 season is here. No. 12 Oklahoma (10-2) takes on a red hot No. 14 Arizona (9-3) in the Valero Alamo Bowl. The Wildcats have won their last six games and are 8-2 under the leadership of redshirt freshman quarterback Noah Fifita.

Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. CT on ESPN.

The Sooners will break in a new offensive coordinator in Seth Littrell and a new starting quarterback in Jackson Arnold. Although this game will not define anyone's career, a win tonight for both these teams would continue their respective momentum heading into 2024, as Oklahoma joins the SEC and Arizona joins the Big 12.

Mods- Ask him when he can learn ball security or encourage him to hit the portal. F scrub. Two turnovers in huge possessions in or near red zone. Dude is so overrated. This L is on his sorry ass.

I thout y’all said Bates was nasty and iur Center next year!

I told you Everett is the starter!

If it was Bates, he would be playing tonight for reps

All you Madden players need to stick to video games because you clearly don’t understand the game outside a video screen

I feel like Stogner could have a nice day today with JFA at qb. More passes over the middle will definitely benefit Stogner and I think we will see a ton more passes over the middle with JFA.

There were plenty of highlights and plenty of growing pains for Arnold. But the Sooners expressed full confidence in the true freshman moving forward.

Here's a look at Arnold's performance and what he took away from his first career start:

Were our receivers running free and he didn't see them? How were the routes? Was Arnold holding the ball too long considering the dodgers eyes open and he didn't see them?

Thx. Would love to learn your perspectives...

Does David Hicks wait till after the game to hit the portal

Girls softball and gymnastics start soon.
