Everything we need to know about ex-OU quarterbacks (and others) we don’t really care about anymore
I recommend OU football fans not watch replays of USC’s 41-28 victory over Stanford.
Mow the yard. Paint the baseboards in the bathroom.
Watch The Waterboy for the zillionth time.
Do anything but watch the lovefest that is USC football, the all-star transfer team of 2022.
Caleb Williams now has the second-best odds (behind Ohio State’s CJ Stroud) to win the Heisman at FanDuel Sportsbook. His odds are +300, meaning if you plunk down $100, you’d win $300.
OU fans will particularly want to pass on the post-game, on-field interviews with ESPN’s Holly Rowe
Last week, his odds were +600.
BTW, the odds on OU’s Dillon Gabriel is +5000.
Against Stanford, Caleb passed for 341 yards and four touchdowns, completing 20 of 27 passes, before a national TV audience.
OU fans will particularly want to pass on the post-game, on-field interviews with ESPN’s Holly Rowe.
Just before the interview, Holly had to wait while Muleshoe, Texas’ favorite son, Lincoln Riley, overhugged Stanford’s Patrick Fields (his former defensive back at Oklahoma who transferred to the Cardinal).
As OU fans will recall, Lincoln wasn’t as caring about them.
He juked them into thinking he wasn’t taking the LSU job before signing for a reported $110 million contract with USC. Within days, Lincoln pulled out $17.2 million to buy an estate in Palo Verdes Estate near the Pacific Coast where Rod Stewart, Liza Minelli, George Takei, and Joe Montana have purchased homes.
But let’s focus on the kids here.
For the other USC, Spencer Rattler was 24 of 39 passing for 376 yards and an interception in a 44-30 loss to Arkansas.
Former OU tight end Austin Stogner caught five passes for 68 yards.
BTW, OU transfer Jadon Haselwood, who was looking for better opportunities elsewhere, caught five passes for 30 yards for Arkansas.
Next week, Spencer and Austin take on No. 1 Georgia in an 11 a.m. game on ESPN.
In Dallas, OU exe Tanner Mordecai threw three touchdown passes and 212 yards to lead SMU past Lamar 45-16. The Mustangs play at Maryland next week.
The other OU quarterback transfer, TCU’s Chandler Morris, missed his team’s game with Tarleton State with a sprained left knee. He hurt it last week, and is listed as week-to-week as TCU.
Maybe he’ll be back Oct. 1 when TCU hosts OU.
