No letdown from Sooners who take care of business against Temple
The Sooners went out and took care of business against Temple winning 42-3 and displaying their dominance on defense. It was a promising development with Auburn coming to Norman next week. But there are some personnel concerns coming out of the game. R Mason Thomas was ejected for targeting and is facing a first half suspension next week. Will Brent Venables and the Sooners appeal the suspension? Also, one of OU's top receivers, Keontez Lewis left the game and could have suffered a concussion. We asked Brent Venables for an update after the game. And once again Jaydn Ott played in mop up duty once again. What's going on there? That's the bad and there was plenty of good to talk about on Saturday. Carey, Eddie and George break it all down as we have plenty of individuals to celebrate after this performance. No, the offense was not perfect. But it's better to be wanting more after putting up 42 points than it is to be upset at a total lack of production as we were game after game a year ago. And Tory Blaylock continues to impress. The true freshman looks every bit the part of RB1.

OU's 24-13 win over Michigan makes a statement to the nation
Oklahoma defeats Michigan 24-13 in front of a nationally televised audience and they make a statement to the rest of college football. The Sooners are a team to be respected on both sides of the ball and John Mateer used his arm and his legs to put together a performance worthy of a Heisman Trophy candidate. The OU defense pummeled Michigan's physical offense throughout the day. And even though some special teams miscues took away from the overall performance of the win, this is an OU team that looks like it can turn around and start competing at a level OU fans expect. Carey, Eddie and George break it all down on the Eskridge Lexus Postgame Podcast

Mateer impressed, offensive line did not in 35-3 opening win
John Mateer set the OU school record for passing yards in a debut as he threw for 392 yards and 3 TDs against Illinois State in a 35-3 win. But there were some issues. The running game couldn't get going and that was largely part to an inconsistent offensive line that saw several players being swapped for others throughout the night. Defensively, it was solid but not dominating up front. And we saw a lot of wrinkles from Brent Venables with different personnel packages. One of the players who really emerged Saturday evening was tight end Jaren Kanak. Who might single handedly save the tight end position at OU. And we think the Sooners might have found a punt returner. Carey, Eddie and George break it all down in your first 2025 Eskridge Lexus Postgame Podcast.

The Crimson Combine was not a game. But we're postgaming anyway.
The Sooners held the first ever Crimson Combine today in Norman instead of the annual spring game. Here's our take not just on what we saw today, but our takes about the spring as a whole after speaking with Brent Venables, offensive coordinator Ben Arbuckle, quarterback John Mateer, Nate Dreiling and Wes Goodwin, along with several players. The offense gives hope if you are willing to take it. The defense has had some players step up and some players are very intriguing. It's the Eskridge Lexus Postgame show wrapping up the Crimson Combine and the interviews after it was over.

Carey, Eddie and George took to the Eskridge Lexus Postgame Podcast to talk about not just the game, but the season as a whole and why things ended up the way they did. What do OU and Brent Venables have to do moving forward? Is OU moving forward with Venables? And what role will Ben Arbuckle and John Mateer play in saving Venables' job in 2005. Lots of passion, lots of yelling, plenty of f-bombs, exactly what you would expect after a season ending loss that gives OU a losing record.
