You knew it would be a defining moment for OU. But boy, you were hoping it would the good version. Instead, nope, Saturday let OU fans know there is still a lot of work left to be done.

A chance to make a statement on the national stage, except it was Ole Miss that did just that. The Rebels take the 34-26 victory in Norman. And now OU has two losses before November and a rough, tough schedule up ahead.

The OU defense had some leaks, allowing 32 points and 431 yards and didn’t force a turnover. Quarterback John Mateer only completed seven of his final 21 attempts.

Very interesting to see where OU goes from here. And what, if anything, can be done to attempt to fix it this late in the season.

Let’s break it all down. It’s time for the Eskridge Lexus Postgame Podcast from SoonerScoop. Is the crew out on OU in 2025 after the latest loss?

Murdock summary:

The Sooners looked like crap early and then finally took the lead after picking themselves up off the mat in the third quarter. Before it all fell apart again. Penalties indicate all kinds of discipline issues with this team. So what is the biggest issues with this team? The head coach? The offensive coordinator? The quarterback? The attention to detail? The talent level? The playcalling? The gameplan? My gawd! We went through it all on this episode of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast. Is this just life in the SEC when you aren’t at the top? Did playing a top team like Ole Miss expose things we didn’t feel like were major issues? Like skill talent on offense? And what is John Mateer as a quarterback? Is the SEC exposing him? Or is he struggling to play like himself as Dillon Gabriel first did when he arrived into the Oklahoma quarterback spotlight? Just get ready for some therapy. Carey, Eddie and George are here to hand some out, even if it’s Scoop staff helping Scoop staff.

All that and all the banter you’ve come to expect from the Eskridge Lexus Postgame Podcast from SoonerScoop.
