Hope not, DG gives us the best option for the W imo if he is 100%. I think DG will likely be ready to go and cleared to play.

Lets see, guy leading the Big 12 in most QB Stats or guy thats a Freshman with little to no playing time this Season. I am gonna go with DG all day long if he is cleared. A win and we still have a shot at a Big 12 Title Game. If DG can't go then JA better be ready.
Remember, TCU loves to knock QB's out of the game, if JA is the starter and DG cannot go then chalk it up to a loss if Beville or whatever his name is has to come in if JA gets mauled.
Don't really matter as long as we win, then we await our fate.

The "C" word was never mentioned, but it DG did have one then he is out. If Arnold took all the reps this week with the #1's he will be fine. He has shown to be an above-average passer and has a much stronger arm I could see bombs over Bagdad if Arnold does get the call.
I'm thinking the DG will be available to play. Oklahoma officials are always tight lipped about this sort of thing. I pretty sure he didn't get a concussion, but was banged up pretty good. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

Yeah I heard that the other day, they said "head injury"
If not a Concussion and he can go you know he wants some payback for last year.

At this point, why not give JA the start? We are not in contention for anything of value unless by miracle we make it to the CCG which may be an embarrassment the way we are playing. Let's give JA first team reps and see what happens.
Done burned his redshirt. Why not take that chance with the most important position on the field? I think now is the perfect time. Imo.

I want Arnold to play with the 1st team, but if DG is healthy and can play he has earned the right to play. Hopefully, he decides to go pro and skips the bowl game and Arnold will get the month with the 1's.

Does he or should he? That's a Lebby deal. Redshirting someone like JA is senseless. Had he had the #1's all summer and season? We will never know.

#3 Landry Jones#8 Baker Mayfield.
#10 Dillion Gabriel
It blows my mind that there are OU fans who want to be done with the #10 all time passing leader, but that happened even more so (on this message board) with the #3 all time passing leader.
People are insane.

I have been saying it for a while now. Thats why they aren't being paid millions of dollars to make those kind of decisions.
The only thing insane here is if any one of those three had a defense to back em up. Think 2018 rose bowl. Imo.

Yeah lighten up Francis. Think of how many bowl games we get introduced to new players over the years. Same concept here, just one game sooner. Nothing against DG but onward the machine must churn.
As long as there are games to play and DG is healthy, he will start. He won't opt-out of the bowl game. Nothing against J. Arnold.

My bad, I read it wrong. I was thinking it was Just Oklahoma. That makes more sense though. He earned most of his yards playing for some one else.

Patrick Mahomes #72
Peyton Manning #75 on the list. In fact, you got to go way way down the list before you find a great (hall of famer) NFL QB. Good thing we're still in college.

OU's defense has been in the Crapper since before Bob left. I keep thinking one day it will change but so far its not looking like it.
People need to remember that Brent's defenses were getting lit up when he was a DC here and also had better players on that side of the ball than we do now.
I have about given up on the D ever getting to where it should be.
