What a difference a week makes for OU fans. Everyone wondering what the Sooners might be made of for the 2025 season. That was answered emphatically in the 24-13 victory against Michigan.

Now? You go from hoping for a good season to now OU fans believing this season could be something special.

Two home games in the books. Time for Brent Venables and Team 131 to hit the road. OU will be at Temple on Saturday afternoon.

It’s clear that OU spent a lot of time focusing on Michigan. The plan had been worked on for weeks, even months. As we move toward the rest of the season, perhaps we’ll see a little more personnel now?

OU knew it had to come out the gate fast. Success. Coaches, players came up with the goods when it mattered most.

Can Temple be a game where OU can chill a bit and give some young guys a chance to show what they can do?

And you have to check in after such a massively successful recruiting weekend.

Murdock summary:

The gang is back together after the biggest Oklahoma football win in a very long time. Eddie and George are getting ready to take off to Philadelphia to cover the Sooners taking on Temple. How does this team respond after they have become national college football darlings? Will there be any let up? And Josh weighs in on OU’s newest commitment along with the news that is still trickling out from last weekend’s massive recruiting visits. Also, what does Josh see happening with the upcoming commitment of 2027 QB Peyton Houston? We’re also wondering if the Sooners are careful with banged up players this week against Temple. Could a Michael Fasusi or Tory Blaylock sit this one out to be healthier against Auburn?

All that and all the banter you’ve come to expect from the Unofficial 40 podcast from SoonerScoop.
