Sooners On SI (Postgame) Podcast 380: What the Heck Happened Against Kentucky?

Sooners On SI's Ryan Chapman, Carson Field, Ryan Aber and Brady Trantham present episode 380 of the Sooners On SI Podcast.

Just a week after a euphoric win over Texas, the guys dive into what went wrong Saturday night in Norman against the vaunted Kentucky Wildcats. But we're not talking basketball here. UK's trying to grow a respectable football program, and they just took another step by winning their fifth straight contest -- and outplaying blue blood Oklahoma to boot.

The Sooners showed signs of real improvement on offense -- four drives of 10 plays or more; outgained UK by 116 yards on offense -- but also reverted back to some of their old ways, with questionable coaching decisions at just the wrong time and, ultimately, FOUR interceptions, three by John Mateer.

OU's defense was solid except when it had to be. Kentucky was the better team as the Sooners fell to 3-3 overall and 1-2 in SEC play. At the midway point of the season, OU is all but eliminated from playoff contention and any pipe dream they may have had about the SEC title game.

Can this OU squad even win six games this year and get to a lowly bowl game? Or will Brent Venables' latest iteration of OU football break that streak, too?
