Mistakes, Missed Chances, and Moving Forward

The Cotton Bowl stage delivered its usual drama — but this time, it was heartbreak for Sooner Nation. Oklahoma’s 23–6 loss to Texas wasn’t about being outclassed — it was about missed chances, offensive struggles, and a defense left to do too much for too long.

In this episode, we break down everything that went down in Dallas:

• John Mateer’s emotional return — and the costly rust that came with it

• Why Oklahoma’s offensive line and run game remain the team’s biggest question marks

• How Brent Venables’ defense battled like champions, even as the scoreboard told a different story

• And what this loss really says about where the Sooners stand heading into the heart of SEC play

This isn’t a season-ender — it’s a wake-up call. Hear why Oklahoma’s setback in the Red River Rivalry could be the spark that refocuses their run toward the SEC title chase.

Tune in now for a grounded, passionate breakdown of one of college football’s fiercest rivalries — and where the Sooners go from here.
