Adapt and Respond with RJ Young: A College Football Podcast

What happened to Chad Morris? How did Arkansas football become the butt of jokes that used to be reserved for Kansas and, lately, UCLA? This was the program that Frank Broyles built. The 1964 national champions. The place that turned Lou Holtz back into a name. The home of the 10-1 1977 Razorbacks who thwarted Oklahoma’s chance at a national title with a 31-6 victory in the Orange Bowl. The university that gave us Jerry Jones, Jimmy Johnson and Barry Switzer.

How did the Razorbacks fall so far?

In his weekly press conference, Oklahoma Sooners coach Lincoln Riley said he was impressed with quarterback Jalen Hurts' buy-in and previewed what he expects from Matt Wells and his Texas Tech Red Raiders. He gave a take on the transfer portal.

The No. 6 Oklahoma Sooners host the Texas Tech Red Raiders on Saturday at 11 a.m. in Memorial Stadium at Owen Field. Lincoln Riley's squad is led by quarterback Jalen Hurts, wide receiver CeeDee Lamb and linebacker Kenneth Murray. OU defensive coordinator Alex Grinch would love to see corners and defensive backs Tre Brown, Parnell Motley and Patrick Fields pick up takeaways in this game.

The Red Raiders are without the services of quarterback Alan Bowman. Tech head coach Matt Wells and offensive coordinator David Yost have to rely on quarterbacks Jackson Tyner and Jett Duffey to help lead running backs Ta'Zhawn Henry, Armand Shyne and wide receiver T.J. Vasher on the offense. The defense is led by coordinator Keith Patterson, linebacker Jordyn Brooks and defensive back Adrian Frye.

Week 5 AP poll and rankings are out! Justin Fields and Ohio State overtook Jalen Hurts and Oklahoma. Trevor Lawrence and Clemson stayed ahead of Tua Tagovailoa and Alabama, Jake Fromm and Georgia, and Joe Burrow and LSU. Bo Nix and Auburn remain unbeaten. Sam Ehlinger and the Texas Longhorns got a needed win at home against Spencer Sanders and Oklahoma State. Ian Book and Notre Dame earned respect.

RJ Young and The Angry Sooner spoke at-length about Jalen Hurts, Alex Grinch and Lincoln Riley with respect to Oklahoma football's 3-0 start in the midst of their bye week.

Lincoln Riley's No. 5 Oklahoma Sooners travel to Los Angeles to face Chip Kelly's UCLA Bruins. Kelly's Bruins are historically bad with Dorian Thompson-Robinson at quarterback while Jalen Hurts is in a Heisman campaign.

No. 4 Oklahoma Sooners host the Houston Cougars in a marquee Sunday matchup. Lincoln Riley will watch Jalen Hurts lead his 2019 OU football team out in front of Dana Holgorsen and D'Eriq King in a battle of two Texas High School quarterbacks looking to make good. This podcast featues Daniel from the College Football Nerds YouTube channel and Twitter’s own Blinkin Riley.

OU defensive coordinator Alex Grinch will try to put a game plan together that take advantage of what UH, and UH defensive coordinator Joe Cauthen will try to do the same.

RJ and Ron talked at-length about 'The Boyz' and how little Amazon TV show has to say about superheroes in a world full of superheroes. They also talked about the idea of fair market value for Spencer Rattler and Jalen Hurts at Oklahoma.

I find the Blue Chip Ratio to be fascinating when picking the teams most likely to win the College Football Playoff. I wonder if we've seen a change in how young college football quarterbacks are viewed, and I've got this quality Mike Leach story for you.

RJ and his Ron Taylor reviewed Last Chance U season 4, part 4, just two days after the show aired on Netflix. They both agreed Independence Community College football and the ICC Pirates are a dumpster fire with Jason Brown as their head coach.
