Show Notes

John Mateer set the OU school record for passing yards in a debut as he threw for 392 yards and 3 TDs against Illinois State in a 35-3 win. But there were some issues. The running game couldn't get going and that was largely part to an inconsistent offensive line that saw several players being swapped for others throughout the night. Defensively, it was solid but not dominating up front. And we saw a lot of wrinkles from Brent Venables with different personnel packages. One of the players who really emerged Saturday evening was tight end Jaren Kanak. Who might single handedly save the tight end position at OU. And we think the Sooners might have found a punt returner. Carey, Eddie and George break it all down in your first 2025 Eskridge Lexus Postgame Podcast.
