SoonerScoop Sights & Sounds: Dare to rewatch it, OU fans
OU didn’t just lose 25-15 to Tennessee on Saturday, it looked outmatched, outclassed. Something has to change quickly, or things will go off the rails.
The show goes on at SoonerScoop. And here are the Sights & Sounds from video editor Eddie Radosevich on a rough night in Norman.
OU Head Coach Brent Venables
“Well, disappointed, obviously in not getting a W and how we played, particularly on the offensive side of the ball, not taking care of the football. And really, a poor half of football. So obviously, made a change there. Felt like we needed to. Gave up 12 points off of turnovers there in the first half. Hoping we could bring Mike in and he’d give us a spark. And obviously he did on a few drives there in the second half. Had the couple touchdown drives there. Thought our defense played really well tonight for the most part. Would love to have caused another turnover or two, but our guys played with tremendous effort. Thought they had a great plan defensively. Our coaches, and players just played very inspired football.

“Proud of those guys, the toughness and the leadership that they showed. A team like Tennessee, as we know, you can’t give them easy opportunities. They forced some of those as well. But I felt like our first interception, we just threw it up there. We just can’t make that mistake. Then we throw one behind the line of scrimmage. We don’t have that option on that play. That’s based on what the defense gave us. It’s a give all the way. That’s one of those mistakes that we just can’t do, can’t make. And then coming off our own end zone there, our own goal line, really poor execution there. Really, really poor. Just gotta get better. Gotta put our heads down and go right back to work.
“We have, obviously, a quarterback. Need to evaluate that and find out, figure out who the best guy is to help us get to No. 4 and find our fourth win. Put everything we got into getting ready, dust ourselves off and go right back at it., We got a good enough team to still have a really good year. We have a lot of football ahead of us, but we got a lot of improvement to make as well. That kind of goes without saying.”
