Oklahoma's spring practices are almost up. We have given you all a lot of insider and sourced scrimmage and practice notes throughout the last month or two, but here is one last batch of quick notes that I can give you all before this Saturday's Crimson Combine:

*** Let's start with the QB play and how things have gone for Michael Hawkins and John Mateer. The consensus has been that the two QB's have been more than up to snuff this spring. That said, it's been somewhat of a trend to see one take an even bigger jump over the last few scrimmages. That QB is

You are all over the place, so I'll just give you the summary of my thoughts lol.

The goal shouldn't be "Let's win 8 games so that we can save our jobs," the goal should be "Let's get the best players on the field that can get us into the playoffs and potentially win a championship while Mateer is here - be it this year or next."

If by week 3, Sexton, Nwaiwu, and Simmons are all three trotting out with the starting group it will be pretty obvious that the coaches are focused on the former, IMO. Personally I'd like to see a starting group of Sexton, Ozaeta, Everett, EPL, and Howland - with Fasusi getting as many snaps as he can in the intermediate.

Well I understand those thoughts. But KW is having a huge impact on stubborn Portalbaugh
