SOONERS vs. West"by God smile when you say it"Va: GAME THREAD

[OU Chinaman]

Bottom post of the previous page:

...Lebby's play calling, while still plain vanilla, established a run threat early with Gavin.
Gabriel's run game was another big factor, butI tend to agree with SoonerTony...don't like seeing Gabriel taking unecessary shots in the 4th when the game is in hand.
Gabriel's back in the Heisman talk after tonight.
Would Like to see Arnold.

[White River]

Jackson Arnold is taking snaps on the sideline

[OU Guy]

...I want one more TD drive by Dillon!
One question.
Has Arnold already played more than enough to still retain his redshirt?
Because if he has, then like I said,...one more long time consuming drive with Gabriel and then let the young gunslinger finish them off!

He's played in 4 games. His next appearance this season will end his redshirt.

I can’t see any reason to save his shirt? That means 5 years. Top players soend 3 years, 4 tops - and go to NFL.

If so lets hope - and one series too late imo

[OU Guy]

Lol, loser!!

[White River]

Davis Bevel comes in instead of Arnold.

[SoonerTony]

?????????!!!

[soonerTroll2]

Good to see Beville's back from injury.

[OU Guy]

Wow, we need him to have practice begore SEC

It is not Jackson Arnold, but Davis Beville that has entered this game at QB

[soonerTroll2]

I assume they're trying to save JA's redshirt?

[OU Guy]

Yes, but why?

[Pokerman]

I read a while back that both JA and his dad would prefer that he redshirt.
Can't blame the coaches for accommodating them so long as there's no urgent reason not to.

[OU Guy]

Condoms and Ducks are next game.

[OU Guy]

INT D! Thank you D for not letting them score!

...I'm not going to speculate on the shirt question.
That's the coaches and Arnold's decision.
Maybe Arnold has agreed that's what he wants to do.
I don't know. But, I do know he's going to get his shot.
And with Hawkins, Sperry, etc., the qb room is crowded enough that you'd be naive to think some of these kids won't portal.

I think you're correct in your assertion that not many college qb's play 4 years...but there are exceptions.
Isn't this Dillon's 5th year?

I really think Arnold could prove to be OU's next Heisman winning qb.
But it's highly unlikely he'll do it as a red-shirt freshman. Or even as a true sophomore.
There's always the potential of injuries.
Maybe there will be a new OC?

OKLAHOMA IS 8-2!
Just smacked a former conference rival around a little in the snake pit.
In my mind OU wins out.
10-2 record is more than acceptable for me after the miserable 6-7 death march last year.

VENABLES IS GOING TO DO THIS!

Does anyone think that Jackson would get any value of coming in the last half of the 4th leading by 32? I sure don't. If he did come in, I'm sure he would do a great job of taking a knee. I just wish someone would ask Brent "Why are we protecting Jackson's redshirt this year?"
