Oklahoma Sooners Postgame

The Sooners hit Owen Field Saturday facing a surprisingly strong Kansas team. At times this looked like a blowout. At times it looked like the Oklahoma team that had lost three straight coming into this one. In the end, the Sooners held on to a lead that seemed like it should have been bigger. Dillon Gabriel threw for over 400 yards. No one was thinking about the last two weeks and the backup QB s...

We'll just call this two angry guys airing grievance this week after OU gets shut out and embarrassed by Texas in the Red River Rivalry. It was 49-0 . The defense was terrible once again and the offense made us look prophetic when we said OU was screwed if Dillon Gabriel ever got hurt. The offense was radically different. So what does that say about Jeff Lebby? We learned that Davis Beville is def...

This will not be a podcast for the faint of heart. It's a fully raw episode with no bleeps. So you might have to headphones the kids if you are driving. Carey, Josh, Eddie and Bob are all here for this one as we break down the OU football team in its current state and search for answers of our own. Who on this team wants to play football? Understands what playing football is? Who should not be pla...

It's another baffling outcome as Oklahoma loses to Kansas State 41-34 in a game where OU couldn't get out of its own way to even seriously threaten the Wildcats on Owen Field. Carey and Eddie are tired, cranky and at a loss for how to keep doing podcasts when unthinkable losses like these happen. Thankfully we have an office on Campus Corner and Mike Hosty was playing next door at The Deli. Becaus...

Oklahoma went to Lincoln, Nebraska, and took care of the Cornhuskers 49-14. As Eddie heads back from Lincoln, he and Carey breakdown what they saw today. The atmosphere led to a fast start for the Huskers, but Dillon Gabriel and the OU defense were up to the challenge as they quickly struck back and kept piling on the touchdowns. What we learned was that things are really changing in Norman around...

Carey and Eddie breakdown Saturday's college football action and specifically what we saw in Norman Saturday night between OU and Kent State. The defense should not be overlooked, but as we're always in search of perfection from OU football, we breakdown what went wrong on the offensive side of the ball. We also continue falling deeper in love with Danny Stutsman and look at some of the standouts...

Carey, Josh and Eddie are here to breakdown OU's 45-13 season opening victory over UTEP. We breakdown what we expected and what we saw on both sides of the ball. Who stood out, who can be better and who just isn't cutting it? We also take time to celebrate a big win and the long road Brent Venables has taken to get to this point. It's back! The Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast. Learn more about you...

It was an incredible day on Owen Field. Not because we finally got to see Dillon Gabriel at QB1 for Oklahoma. Not because Jeff Lebby is a madman that made Gabriel play for both teams or that we could barely keep up with the speed of his offense. It wasn't the fire of Brent Venables who commanded the day with his microphone at midfield. It was the buzz inside the stadium generated from the return o...

On the final day of 2021 we wrap up the Alamo Bowl and a wild ride to the end of the season. Carey, Eddie and Josh are here as Josh recaps his visit to Orlando for the Under Armour All-American practices while Carey and Eddie breakdown the Alamo Bowl win over Oregon and hand out plenty of praise for Cale Gundy and Bob Stoops. Call this an exit interview, therapy, celebration, man crushing on Stoop...

Oklahoma finally gets back in the win column to move to 10-1 with a huge Bedlam showdown coming next weekend. The defense was really good, but the offense looked like the same one we saw in Waco last weekend. What's going on? Is it Lincoln Riley? The Sooners ran the ball really well against Iowa State. But special teams were a letdown for whatever reason. But is that surprising? So many questions...

Just go listen. We're as defeated as the OU football team is right now. We hash out the problems with this team and the most glaring problems from the day. What needs to be fixed the fastest? Who needs to fix it? Josh and Carey have different takes on the Rattler stuff today. But they can both agree on a lot of other stuff. Eddie joins us later in the show from the road where we continue to work t...

Oklahoma got a huge (finally) win in the Big 12, and a relatively easy one at that thanks to both sides of the ball playing some of their best football of the season. Key Lawrence was a revelation at cornerback and Isaiah Thomas was dominant up front. Justin Broiles and Pat Fields had the last laugh as both picked off Tech passes. And Caleb Williams was fantastic throwing for over 400 yards and 6...

What a treat! This week's postgame pod is full of the Scoop stars. Josh McCuistion joins Carey and Eddie this week because he had a lot to say about what he saw in Lawrence. Eddie calls in from the KU pressbox where he was actually chastised by the KU staff for making too much noise during the pod. So you know he was fired up. We can't understand this defense. How did we get here? Why has it falle...

There's is no denying it after a second week, Caleb Williams is Oklahoma's quarterback. This OU offense looks completely different under the direction of Williams. Carey and Eddie break it all down in this edition of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast. The defense was rough once again, but the bodies are getting thin and it's starting to take it's toll. Billy Bowman wasn't an instant success at c...

It was one of the craziest days of football the OU-Texas rivalry has ever seen. There were huge swings of emotion brought on by big plays, big mistakes and big QB changes. Caleb Williams replaced Spencer Rattler at QB and helped lead the Sooners to victory. The defense was terrible and then awesome. It's difficult to wrap our heads around everything we saw today in Dallas. But we're trying to do j...

Much like OU's 37-31 win over Kansas State, the Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast followed a similar script. Recorded at midnight starting at a gas station just outside of Wichita, Eddie and Carey started recording the pod. It went well, but around 3 a.m. when Carey finally got home, he crashed and failed to finish uploading the pod. Thankfully, he recovered before the day was done and got it upload...

Oklahoma never led West Virginia Saturday night on Owen Field until the clock ran out. That's when Gabe Brkic hit a 30-yard field goal to give the Sooners a 16-13 victory over the Mountaineers. But this game will be remembered or something even more memorable. Fans were boo'ing Spencer Rattler. And others started chanting, "We want Caleb" during the game. How Rattler handles this going forward wil...

Oklahoma beats Nebraska 23-16 today in Norman and everyone feels a different way about it. Heck, everyone on the Scoop staff feels a different way about it. Carey and Eddie start breaking it all down and why the offense and Spencer Rattler can't figure it out. Then we're joined by Josh McCuistion as the discussion turns up a notch. What is good about this team? Who is Spencer Rattler? What is this...

This time the game really was over by halftime. Spencer Rattler was great, the defense was dominant, the week leading up to Western Carolina was brutal in practices. OU was so dominant on defense it was like one big nameless, faceless group. Danny Stutsman led the team in tackles. So what do you take out of a dominant performance against an overmatched opponent? All you can do is just keep moving...

Oklahoma opened the season Saturday afternoon in Norman. And what looked like a blowout turned into a nail biter. Oklahoma's offense went stale in the second half and the defense gave up enough to make it interesting. We're left scratching our heads to what we saw, what went wrong and what actually worked. We breakdown just about the entire roster and coaching staff in this edition of the Eskridge...

In our final podcast of 2020, we bring you the last Eskridge Lexus podcast of the season. Carey and Eddie broke down what we finally got to see together, a blowout bowl game win over an SEC team. We breakdown the stars of the game, the biggest plays and what this all means going forward. And in some strange way we hopefully are welcoming back a much more normal type of college football in 2021. Th...

After OU lost to Iowa State and started off their Big 12 Conference season 0-2, no one expected they would get a rematch in the Big 12 Championship game. But that's exactly what happened and the OU defense put up another monster performance up front and forced 3 interceptions out of Brock Purdy. Carey and Eddie breakdown Oklahoma's 27-21 over Iowa State and had out plenty of deserved praise. A bow...

Oklahoma beat Baylor 27-14 Saturday night in the final home game of this crazy 2020 season. It wasn't the type of game anyone expected. OU's defense was ravaged by missing starters and Robert Barnes was moved to a starting safety position after he was moved to linebacker this year. The offense sputtered through much of the game, the offensive line struggled and Baylor looked like a team that was c...

It wasn't always easy, but Rhamondre Stevenson and the OU offense came alive at the end, and the OU defense held down the Oklahoma State Cowboys most of the day. Mike Gundy got wishy washy with his quarterbacks and Lincoln Riley looked like his vintage best self, dialing up some tricks and running circles around the Pokes on offense. Spencer Rattler had his best big game of his career and the OU p...

Lots of turnovers on both sides and even more replay delays made the first half disjointed and muddied. But the Sooners just kept rolling against Big 12 competition. Spencer Rattler gave everyone a scare with a bruised hip and Austin Stogner still is a concern. But the defensive line had its most dominant day yet and the defense beat up KU's quarterback all day long. Alex Grinch continues to get p...
