OU switching back to the Air-Raid

[Realist Horn]

The offense that Venables broughy Arbuckle in to run. Isn’t it a little late to switch up your offense in week 4?

They are going to try ANYTHING to not get embarrassed by georgia, take their third belt in a row in the cotton bowl, While looking 8-5 dead in the face.

The air raid requires an accurate QB and synced up timing with receivers.  Good luck.

They don't have the talent or personal on offense to run that style of offense. They are dead in the water this year.

8 wins is generous

[Texas fan in Georgia]

It’ll resemble more of an air horn offense.

OU may lose 6 or more this season, regardless of what they change on offense.

Venables made an offensive mistake hitching his wagon to Ben and John.

Brent Venables is basically a reverse Lincoln Riley, except Venables did have a decent offense in year one and an elite offense in year two when the elite offensive recruits Lincoln Riley and his staff brought in were still there combined with having Jeff Lebby as their OC and Dillon Gabriel as their QB.  Once all those guys left the program, the offense fell off a cliff.  Safe to say, like Lincoln Riley with defense, as long as Brent Venables is a HC, Oklahoma will continue to have anemic offensive football teams for the foreseeable future.  Just imagine how good the combination of Lincoln Riley as an OC and Brent Venables as a DC would be at a top program combined with a competent HC.

Venerables reminds me of Charlie Strong. Nice guy and a good DC but in WAY over his head as a HC.

It’s not exactly a vote of confidence in your current situation if you’re literally having to change the entire philosophy of your offense three games into a season.

This. Good luck indeed getting this going in a week before playing Georgia

Dislike them way more than most, I lived through Switzer. But they have a good D and I remember us saying they were toast last year and they ended up in damn playoffs. We will see.

 

[Tuco Ramirez]

Thank you, Oklahoma, for being you. Don’t ever change.

Jim Trabor is amazingly ridiculous.

I don't know if anyone can possibly dislike them more than I do. I believe that 1976 tie with Oklahoma coming on the tails of the OU spying operation was the straw that broke for DKR. Texas went into that game as an underdog and outplayed OU in a fanatical defensive performance only to be tied in the closing minutes by an untimely fumble and a missed OU extra point. It was just sickening.
