What a treat! This week's postgame pod is full of the Scoop stars. Josh McCuistion joins Carey and Eddie this week because he had a lot to say about what he saw in Lawrence. Eddie calls in from the KU pressbox where he was actually chastised by the KU staff for making too much noise during the pod. So you know he was fired up. We can't understand this defense. How did we get here? Why has it fallen off so much? Are there any positives out of today? Well, first, OU won, so they remain undefeated....

There's is no denying it after a second week, Caleb Williams is Oklahoma's quarterback. This OU offense looks completely different under the direction of Williams. Carey and Eddie break it all down in this edition of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast. The defense was rough once again, but the bodies are getting thin and it's starting to take it's toll. Billy Bowman wasn't an instant success at cornerback and what could have been a laugher was too close because of TCU's big plays. Nevertheless,...

It was one of the craziest days of football the OU-Texas rivalry has ever seen. There were huge swings of emotion brought on by big plays, big mistakes and big QB changes. Caleb Williams replaced Spencer Rattler at QB and helped lead the Sooners to victory. The defense was terrible and then awesome. It's difficult to wrap our heads around everything we saw today in Dallas. But we're trying to do just that. Carey and Eddie start things off but we're soon joined by Josh as well. What do we think L...

Much like OU's 37-31 win over Kansas State, the Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast followed a similar script. Recorded at midnight starting at a gas station just outside of Wichita, Eddie and Carey started recording the pod. It went well, but around 3 a.m. when Carey finally got home, he crashed and failed to finish uploading the pod. Thankfully, he recovered before the day was done and got it uploaded. Alex Grinch is probably mad at us as he was his defense. Like Spencer Rattler, he had a great pe...

Oklahoma never led West Virginia Saturday night on Owen Field until the clock ran out. That's when Gabe Brkic hit a 30-yard field goal to give the Sooners a 16-13 victory over the Mountaineers. But this game will be remembered or something even more memorable. Fans were boo'ing Spencer Rattler. And others started chanting, "We want Caleb" during the game. How Rattler handles this going forward will define his legacy. But he also needs more help from the offensive line and some faith in the run g...

Oklahoma beats Nebraska 23-16 today in Norman and everyone feels a different way about it. Heck, everyone on the Scoop staff feels a different way about it. Carey and Eddie start breaking it all down and why the offense and Spencer Rattler can't figure it out. Then we're joined by Josh McCuistion as the discussion turns up a notch. What is good about this team? Who is Spencer Rattler? What is this OU offense? Can it be fixed at this point or are we just waiting on an eventual disaster. Also, we ...

This time the game really was over by halftime. Spencer Rattler was great, the defense was dominant, the week leading up to Western Carolina was brutal in practices. OU was so dominant on defense it was like one big nameless, faceless group. Danny Stutsman led the team in tackles. So what do you take out of a dominant performance against an overmatched opponent? All you can do is just keep moving forward and thank the lucky stars you aren't Texas or Iowa State this week. And you seek out that op...

Oklahoma opened the season Saturday afternoon in Norman. And what looked like a blowout turned into a nail biter. Oklahoma's offense went stale in the second half and the defense gave up enough to make it interesting. We're left scratching our heads to what we saw, what went wrong and what actually worked. We breakdown just about the entire roster and coaching staff in this edition of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame Podcast. OU wins 40-35, but it'll be a week of reflection around here. That's starts...

In our final podcast of 2020, we bring you the last Eskridge Lexus podcast of the season. Carey and Eddie broke down what we finally got to see together, a blowout bowl game win over an SEC team. We breakdown the stars of the game, the biggest plays and what this all means going forward. And in some strange way we hopefully are welcoming back a much more normal type of college football in 2021. The Sooners proved in the Cotton Bowl that they will be one of the programs to watch next season. We j...

After OU lost to Iowa State and started off their Big 12 Conference season 0-2, no one expected they would get a rematch in the Big 12 Championship game. But that's exactly what happened and the OU defense put up another monster performance up front and forced 3 interceptions out of Brock Purdy. Carey and Eddie breakdown Oklahoma's 27-21 over Iowa State and had out plenty of deserved praise. A bowl game will be announced soon and then the offseason could determine if these Sooners are going to h...

Oklahoma beat Baylor 27-14 Saturday night in the final home game of this crazy 2020 season. It wasn't the type of game anyone expected. OU's defense was ravaged by missing starters and Robert Barnes was moved to a starting safety position after he was moved to linebacker this year. The offense sputtered through much of the game, the offensive line struggled and Baylor looked like a team that was capable of shocking the Sooners. But even with so many players out, OU's defense stepped up and carri...

It wasn't always easy, but Rhamondre Stevenson and the OU offense came alive at the end, and the OU defense held down the Oklahoma State Cowboys most of the day. Mike Gundy got wishy washy with his quarterbacks and Lincoln Riley looked like his vintage best self, dialing up some tricks and running circles around the Pokes on offense. Spencer Rattler had his best big game of his career and the OU pass rush made it impossible for OSU to get anything going offensively. The Sooners now control their...

Lots of turnovers on both sides and even more replay delays made the first half disjointed and muddied. But the Sooners just kept rolling against Big 12 competition. Spencer Rattler gave everyone a scare with a bruised hip and Austin Stogner still is a concern. But the defensive line had its most dominant day yet and the defense beat up KU's quarterback all day long. Alex Grinch continues to get production out of his youth on defense and Oklahoma just pounded Kansas into submission Saturday afte...

The Sooners keep getting better after their 0-2 start. With a 62-28 win over Texas Tech, OU is putting together complete performances on both sides of the ball. And now that Ronnie Perkins and Rhamondre Stevenson are back, OU has more weapons than ever. An easy win over Texas followed a key loss by OSU to Texas. And Kansas State lost at West Virginia. The Sooners are just a couple of weeks from controlling their own destiny in the Big 12. Carey and Eddie breakdown what we saw tonight in Lubbock ...

The Sooners go into TCU and play their only complete Big 12 game of the year. They almost did it against Texas, but they fell apart near the end just like they did against Kansas State and Iowa State. The hope was OU could build on what they showed in the OT period against Texas. That's exactly what they did on defense as Alex Grinch got his team to play their most complete game of the season. Eddie and Carey break down what they saw from our studios in Norman while Bob slaved away on his keyboa...

It was a crazy day as usual at the Cotton Bowl. OU appeared to have victory secured but the defense reverted to their form over the last two weeks. But did the Sooners start to find something on offense with Spencer Rattler and several receivers like Austin Stogner, Theo Wease and Drake Stoops? The defense used a lot of youngsters and it all looked really good. Lincoln Riley had a gut check as a coach. He wasn't perfect. He made some questionable decisions. But at least he hasn't been branded as...

AMES, Iowa - Carey is in Ames where the Sooners took on the Cyclones and it once again did not go in OU's favor. We expected a rebound after Kansas State. But it seemed like much of the same in Ames. The offense wasn't resilient, the defense was bland and uninspiring. Even the special teams had a massive gaffe during the game at a critical moment. Carey, Eddie and Bob all join up to talk about the game and the repercussions mean for OU. How bad could this all get? Has the OU program become #soft...

In an especially NSFW version of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast Carey and Eddie discuss the Sooners 38-35 loss to Kansas State Saturday afternoon. It's not the drunken podcast, but it's the bleep free podcast for those looking to get their full frustrations out with us. Spencer Rattler played like a 5-star for a while, but when prosperity turned to adversity, he wasn't ready. But it was the OU defense that was the real star of Saturday's shitshow. What happened Alex Grinch? And what does Li...

Carey, Eddie and Bob breakdown what we saw from the pressbox and give you our takeaways from the opener. Spencer Rattler was the star, but what about Marvin Mims and other youngsters on the offense.

The defense was awesome for most of the game, but a third string quarterback gave the Sooners fits. We hear from Lincoln Riley, Jalen Hurts and Kenneth Murray on the win. No one wanted to talk playoffs as a definite, but we all know the Sooners are headed in that direction. We breakdown everything that happened, good and bad. Jalen Hurts had some turnover problems again. Next...

The boys are fresh off the trip to Stillwater where the Sooners put together their most complete performance of the season in a 34-16 victory over the Cowboys. Kennedy Brooks stole the spotlight from Chuba Hubbard and then the defense bashed him over the head with it. The Sooners were just dominating in the second half of play once again. Parnell Motley was an absolute star on the defensive side of the ball as he wreaked havoc on the OSU offense. Carey, Eddie and Bob are here to break it all dow...

On this edition of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast... Well we didn't have to drive all over Texas this week but we do have a late night podcast for you after the Sooners beat TCU 28-24. After covering every second of this team the last three weeks, we're still having trouble making heads or tails of what this team really is. And what Jalen Hurts is as a QB. We understand if you are confused. Is it the defense, the playcalling, the quarterback, the turnovers, the lack of turnovers? There's a ...

It's hard to say we can't believe what we just saw on this week's edition of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame podcast because we were actually there to see it with our own eyes. And we couldn't stop watching it. Jalen Hurts was terrible, then he was amazing. The defense was the same way as they finally caught a hold of the turnover bug and ended up sealing the win thanks to some timely defense. The Sooners had the biggest comeback in program history Saturday night in Waco and it just happened to come...

Oklahoma had two weeks to prepare to face Iowa State in Norman. For 3 quarters it looked like this team had taken the loss in Manhattan seriously and come out ready to become a dominant football team. Then the fourth quarter happened. OU's defense had been improved through the first seven games, then it fell apart against Kansas State. After Iowa State, we're left to wonder if this defense is losing it's luster. Carey, Eddie and Bob join up just after the game to talk about what we saw, where th...
