It’s ALMOST here, folks. The rematch we hoped for the week after the Baylor Bears to the Oklahoma Sooners 3 weeks ago, and knew would happen just a week later. We’re excited for this game and are giving it our full attention!
The challenge with previewing this week is that we just did this exact same thing three weeks ago. It’s wild to think that the game against OU was that recent, because it feels like so much has happened since then, but nope. Three weeks.
We’re looking at the performance of both teams over those weeks and how we think that impacts the preparation for this game, the improvement we’ve seen and the changes in tendencies. There’s no question that both teams will be fully ready to go and not fazed by the moment.
Will JaMycal Hasty, John Lovett, and Trestan Ebner rise to the occasion and carry the ball more than 6 times? How will having CeeDee Lamb impact Jalen Hurts and the Oklahoma offense?
At one point in the podcast, I reference S11’s Xs and Os Previews on SicEm365. If you’re already a subscriber, head over and check them out. If not, they have a $5.00 special to check them out until National Signing Day. Anyway, I mention a video from those previews and Sam’s graciously agreed to let me embed it in the notes for your enjoyment. Even still, definitely check out his previews. They alone are worth the price of admission.
We’re also doing Picks!
Enjoy! (Sorry I don’t have timestamps, if I have time I will update these notes with timestamp references)
