OUinsider.com/247Sports: Under the Visor Sooners Podcast

00:00 - Intro where Parker instantly goes Jalen Hurts and calls for "rat poison" being the issue.

01:00 - Stats are deceiving at times, aren't they?

03:30 - Mad props to Tulane for all they have been through to play that well in Norman.

04:30 - Tulane QB Michael Pratt took a beating

06:30 - What type of mindset did OU have? Is it a chronic issue of getting lax with a big lead? What's the root cause? Brandon and Parker discussed.

13:00 - OU was solid to VERY GOOD when focused, but when up 37-14 they let up and it showed until the final drive where the focus came back. Is this the last time that happens in 2021?

15:00 - Spencer Rattler's play. Heisman frontrunner not so hot vs Tulane. Does OU at least look at Caleb Williams if this keeps up? How many unenviable situations can the defense be put in before that becomes a legitimate conversation? Brandon and Parker feel Rattler rebounds and explain why, too.

19:45 - RB's need more touches. Kennedy Brooks and Eric Gray couldn't get into a rhythm.

22:00- They not run because of the OL? Lack of trust? Limited depth at RB? Parker and Brandon try to unpack a lot there on the Sooners run game and at times the lack thereof with the OU run game. Does Lincoln Riley lean on the RBs more as the season goes on? The staff also unpacks the OL starters and depth. Talent is there, they think and explain why they feel the tools are there for a good OL.

28:00 - Was the second half vs Tulane the worst in recent memory? When was the last time the Sooners scored three points or less?

30:00 - Safety play. Brandon and Parker duck at the tomatoes being thrown at them for their takes of the OU safeties and they discuss the players that really stood out with GOOD play vs Tulane. Hint: Marvin Mims, Isaiah Thomas, and Gabe Brkic were talked about A LOT!

39:00 - Did rotating so many guys have an effect on the Sooners' play with players not getting in a rhythm or getting going like they normally would?

40:00 - Mike Woods play at WR in debut? Is Marvin Mims playing at an elite level? What makes him so special?

41:50 - Gabe freaking Brkic. That is all. Gabe Brkic is insanely good and had a record-setting day.

44:30 - Weirdly efficient day offensively when you look at possession chart. OU only did not score on two possessions all game long.

48:00 - This team losses the game in 2020 and 2019 if they play like they did vs Tulane. 2021 team is different with talent. Brandon and Parker discuss why and also their feeling of OU being bored up 23-points. Almost cost them.

50:00 to podcast end - Where will OU be ranked in new rankings? What's next for the Sooners? Can they rebound and live up to potential?
