Oklahoma Sooners football is gearing up for a transformative season with new quarterback John Mateer at the helm. Can Brent Venables' decision to take over defensive play-calling lead the Sooners to success? This episode unpacks Oklahoma's strategic shifts, including Mateer's potential impact and the evolving offensive dynamics under coordinator Ben Arbuckle.

Key players like Jovantae Barnes and Gavin Sawchuk are poised to make waves in the running back competition. Host Chris Gordy and guest Jay Smith of Locked On Sooners provide expert analysis on Oklahoma's 2024 schedule, highlighting crucial matchups against Michigan, Texas, and Alabama. Venables is taking charge of OU's defense, calling plays himself this season. He's confident, saying "I'm good at it." With a 10-3 record last year and a solid defense, can Venables' play-calling push OU to the next level? What do you think about this move?

John Mateer, OU's new QB, brings 3000+ passing yards and 800+ rushing yards from Washington State. He's reuniting with his former OC Ben Arbuckle. Could this duo spark OU's offense after last year's struggles? How many wins do you predict for OU this season? And OU's schedule looks tough. They might start 5-0, but then face Texas, South Carolina, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Alabama, Mizzou, and LSU. Jay Smith boldly predicts a 10-2 season. Is this realistic or overly optimistic? What's your win prediction for OU?

Join the conversation for an in-depth look at the Sooners' path to a potential 10-2 season. Don't miss out on exclusive insights and predictions that could shape your understanding of Oklahoma football's future.
