Coach Venables Needs a Willie Beamen Tomorrow in Dallas

Oh, boy. Quinn Ewers was named as the healthy starter for tomorrow’s Red River Rivalry game in the Cotton Bowl.

OU is in John Blake hell right now. As a team they appear to be lost and their season is on the brink.

John Blake of Taco Bell fame per Berry Tramel actually won his first Red River Rivalry game in ’96. Nobody saw it coming.

Tramel wrote two years later upon John Blake’s firing that ‘Just because you once worked a a Taco Bell doesn’t necessrily mean you should manage a Taco Bell.’

I have no idea who gets the start tomorrow for the Sooners at QB. It could be Dillion Gabriel, could freshman Nick Evers, or it could even be juco transfer General Booty.

But I would think it’s one of those three because of the obvious need for a mobile quarterback to keep the Sooners within sight of the Longhorns in this one.

As this game goes…usually OU’s remainder of the season goes.

Seems pretty simple. Either pull your shit together as a group or or play out the string to a 7-5 or 6-6 season …or worse.

At some point as a team you have to hate the way you’ve been playing and respond.
