first half of offense was extremely triggering to watch. However it seems the coaching staff is good at making adjustments. Next few weeks will be interesting. Good job Sooners
I agree however the score would of been 45-42. I don’t think Lincoln’s offense would of started so slow. Their QB and that receiver would of Absolutely destroyed the defense last year.
Remember all those years when your heart is racing because our defense would let just about anyone score? wow what a breath of fresh air. Game ball has to go to the Defense. LFG!!!!
I doubt they’re used yet to the blocking scheme as compared to previous years. IZone blockings is just different. What’s encouraging is how they looked coming out of the half. They looked unsure in the first half rather than just not talented if that makes sense. This is still a new roster for Gabriel with a lot of new pieces as well. I suppose it’ll take them a bit longer to gel than o thought but that’s called hype lol. I agree he needs to learn to throw it away much sooner, but they held him back in camp so I doubt his chemistry with everyone is solid yet. I think we can see what’s there though. Once it clicks for them, look out. Defense as well
They do, but once you get Morris back from suspension then you can throw the RT back into his spot at LT. Outside of that, I think we need to see how Savion Byrd fits in the guard position and maybe start him.
WoW ! Looks to me like Majors is getting better every snap, Gray has improved as well ! Our QB is getting better and our TE’s are Elite !! The O line needs some work but seems itsmore about timing than anything else ! The D as a whole, smokes last year ! So why are some folks bitching about OU ??? I suspect its that we were playing Kent state vs Ohio state ? We don’t know much about them ! Yet they went to abowl last year plus were top 5 in the country in Offense ??? I don’t know where the D rated But their safeties were both very good in run support ! Against the run they seemed very good ! Anyway I really like where this team is heading, the Nebraska game should give us some better insight on where we are in the process ! They have big strong kids too and we know about their QB !
Those lights were awesome in person. I wish they had a touchdown horn in addition to the band and shotguns but overall it was super fun and it got the crowd so hyped up
Barnes needs to chill with his running style or his run may be a short one. 2 games in a row my guy just uses his face as a mallet and getting up all wobbly.
Kent State...lmao. I consider myself a serious CFB fan and realized that in the 60 odd games CLR was HC @ OU I may have watched 3 of them. Total. Had no problem with OU. Respected them. Big Boz fan when I was a kid and always loved Switzers swagger. And I knew or was aware that this Lincoln Riley was some sort of offensive prodigy and was vaguely aware of some of their skill players. The first game that really caught my attention was the red River game and CW coming out party last year. And the reason I never watched OU is that they aren’t glamorous or sexy or a rock star brand. Their fan base actually probably leans into that heavy and as a guy who grew up in Tex-izzz I get their whole deal and that vibe. But nobody outside that region ever thinks “I gotta catch the Oklahoma game” SC is glamour. SC is sexy. SC when it’s rolling is Hollywood royalty, a national brand that pulls in everyone even if it’s just to hate on them. CLR at OU then coming to SC is night and day. We are two games into this thing. TWO. GAMES. And the team that went 4-8 and was a punchline a year ago is a top 7 team with national pundits fawning over them and local writers already proclaiming them the best team in the country. (pump the brakes a bit Bill if for nothing else whatever shred remains of your “objective” credibility) That is the power of plugging The genius of Lincoln Riley into the USC brand. Nothing has changed about HIM. What he does, how he runs a program, his on field demeanor, play calling etc. He’s been doing this for years. He just went from Hallmark Network to HBO. This guy is going to be a National rock star. Caleb Williams is literally going to be the face of CFB. The Coliseum WILL become prime time must see CFB television. If you can’t see the winds shifting in two weeks headed (quickly) in that direction you either aren’t watching or irrationally hate/deny SC. OU could never match this. Never offer it. Never compete with this. And that is a huge reason CLR took this job literally overnight. Having never set foot in the Coliseum or on campus. He didn’t need to. He knew the brand. He knew the City. And he knew what he can do and what he could do here could not be matched anywhere else.
1. This is bait. You came to an OU highlight video and spew this? Calling yourself a serious fan without recognizing OU as a legendary program is incredibly pedestrian. There is a reason the King said "People don’t know what it means to be champions. Oklahoma invented it." 2. The Rams won a Super Bowl and are still going to regularly have more visiting fans than their own at home games. LA is a city with nearly limitless options for entertainment. If LR can't bring home a championship OR TWO and soon, interest will pretty quickly dwindle because 11-1 seasons ending in a NY6 bowl just won't cut it out West. And with USC heading to the Big 10, that championship feels less and less inevitable. Oklahoma fans have high expectations, but we fill our stadium even in our down years. It's not just something you do on your free Saturday. It's what you plan every weekend around for 15 weeks year in, year out.
@@jeffreylboardsr2577 1. Thank you for proving me right about this being bait lmao 2. Ooh, busting out the anti-vax Swiss army knife: "Do some research?" On what? The PAC-12 being a dumpster fire conference? Ohio State's year-over-year dominance of the Big 10? Lincoln Riley's weakness to well-coached, disciplined teams? OU might have a rough transition, but the fans will still show up for every game, and we'll have patience as the team grows into the new, harder conference because we know it will make us better in the long run. If USC loses to OSU most years and LR drops his customary yearly game to a vastly less talented, but better coached team, I don't think USC fans will have that fire.
@@jeffreylboardsr2577 You know why USC and their fans are insufferable? You see an OU video and you just HAVE to duck in here to talk about LR, and how he's going to lead you to the promised land at USC. We don't fucking care. He left. We hired a new coach, and we're excited to see the future. We know the SEC is a different beast, but we know we're better off learning in the hellfire of that conference that getting to the playoff and losing by 4 TD every year. But for you all, it's not enough to be happy with your coach, you have to look for others to bring down. And when anyone presents and observations or evidence of why LR isn't the second coming of football Jesus all you have is the "no bro it's gonna be different here. we're gonna dominate. the natty is ours no problem. TRUST ME BRO I KNOW". Have fun skull-dragging Oregon and the rest of the corpse of the PAC-12, getting high on Hopium only for OSU/Michigan to drag you back down to earth. We know. We lived it.
No, a dog fight was with Tulane last season, this was simply sloppy play for a half. A good halftime speech and some adjustments and this team looked scary.
Danny Stutsman is going to be a high first rounder if he keeps this up
Stutsman was flying around everywhere. Relentless. Kinda Rocky Calmusish too.
I know he is a Venables type LB.
need to see how he plays against tougher teams but so far he's a beast
Stutsman has all the makings of an NFL player as long as he continues to be coached and work hard
Kent St. QB was impressive, he could sling it and was hard to tackle, like a Vince Young type.
😆😆
Or Baker Mayfield type

@@jacobsmith5865 this comment aged well in Texas favor
Good win considering the all upsets that happened around college football! We could have ended up like ND or Texas A&M
Ikr? Saw the halftime score and I was like, “Oh no, please not us too.”
If we'd still had the last staff we would've! This year's team don't look lost on defense, and fly to the ball.
I believe if OU still had the old coaching staff. This game would of been a lot closer.
Kent State would have put 24 on the board

Don't forget about Billy Bowman sir
@@staceybuckles9163 My apologies the homie’s a stud
Don’t forget about me.
This is the Marvin Mims I expected to see last year. He can ball out.
@@soonerborn7603 we won't forget you Boomer!
Holy shit so many defensive highlights looks like the old ou
Stutsman shades of Lehman & Bosworth
Marshall and Bowden are my 2 favs followed by Calmus.
Gabriel made some beautiful passes. Especially that first TD.
Danny stuntman is a baller
Drake stoops deserves a statue
Remember all those years when your heart is racing because our defense would let just about anyone score?
wow what a breath of fresh air. Game ball has to go to the Defense. LFG!!!!
Yea it finally happens and now we cant score a single point on offense an entire half. Go figure 🤦
Thank you again, sir! BOOMER SOONER!!!
The lights look awesome at the game, only after watching the highlights do I get why I had people saying it was awkward.
O-Line needs a ton of work.
absolutely
Not only that, but Gabriel needs to learn to throw the ball away in certain situations and not try to extend the play when it's not there.

They do, but once you get Morris back from suspension then you can throw the RT back into his spot at LT. Outside of that, I think we need to see how Savion Byrd fits in the guard position and maybe start him.
Major looks like the best back imo
Completely agree, he has the perfect balance of shiftiness and toughness

This OU team is eerily similar to those early/mid 2000s teams
This is Gods team... success comes from what God allows...and this team will serve the Lord... BoOMer SOonER
Amen
We don't need a mass genocidal maniac "watching over" OU. No thanks.
Not the best offensive first half but i like the adjustments by lobby at halftime
Gabriel arm looks better, than it did in the spring game..
What was going on with the cameras on the wide shots?
Ok, too dark. Ok, too dark. Ok, too dark.
Mims 😎. Stoops 😎. Stutsman 🤯. OU celebration lights 🤮
I don't know. I was there and I loved it! It was something new for the night games and it impressed.
I thought they were great!! And p.s. Bowman 🤯
They're much better in person than they are on TV. It's fun!
