Venables Unleashed: Havoc Everywhere
Champion Standard — “Auburn Annihilated”
OU survives a rock fight in Norman and plants a flag in the SEC. We break down why the Palace on the Prairie rattled Auburn (false starts galore), how Brent Venables dialed up havoc (9–11 sacks depending on the data house), why Cam Coleman changed OU’s coverage plan, and what the run-game struggles really were (injuries + Auburn’s legit front). We also talk Mateer vs. Arnold, the “deception” play that sparked an SEC statement, and where this OU defense can still level up. Trench Warfare deep dive drops midweek. Boomer.
5 Quick Takeaways
Defense set the tone: double-digit sacks, 14 TFLs, ~20% stop rate.
Crowd impact was real: multiple false starts, delays, and holds from Auburn.
QB edge: slight nod to Mateer on explosives; Arnold composed under fire.
Run game stalled; pass pro still gave time for chunk plays.
Brent’s adjustments (man → Cover 6) throttled Auburn’s answers late.
