Coming up, we have to talk about this pivotal, pivotal player on the defensive side of the football, uh, that will shine in this game. Without further ado, let's go ahead and get into this show now. Here's some stats for you. Here's some— hey, it's kind of crazy, I'm not gonna lie, it's kind of crazy. So buckle up, buckle up. Oklahoma is averaging 20.1 points versus P4 teams in their SEC era. That's 2024, uh, through the present time. Now they're averaging just 4.5 points versus the Texas Longhorns, us. What can I say? I'm very excited now. Here, here's, here's, here's some, uh, some stats for you, right? Here's some, here's some more stats for you. They haven't scored a touchdown on the Texas Longhorns in 1,094 days. That's insane. That's insane. That's, that's utterly insane. Shout out to Orange Bloods, uh, for the stats, um, and also shout out to Kyle Umlang for the stats also. Uh, tremendous work over there. Now we can, we can go back in time and talk about the scores. Matter of fact, I want to do that just because I feel— I'm feeling really good. It's Tuesday, I'm feeling really good about this, right? So back in 2024, you know, we ranked number 1 in the nation again, just like we are right now, uh, and, and we beat Oklahoma, who was ranked number 18th in the nation, 34-6. See, you see, you see, you see? Are you, are you seeing? You're not seeing? Okay, well then last year, all right, last year we weren't even ranked. At this point in the season, we were what? We were three and two at this point, and we put up twenty-three. They Oklahoma, who's ranked number six in the nation, they put up six. Uh huh. Yeah. Yeah. Me there. This is a trend, right? This is a trend. And one thing about trends, they are insane, and I love them. I do. I feel like this is a trend. This is gonna be one of those trends that stay in the algorithm. For a good while. If you know, you know. I'm loving this. I think, I think our defense is top-notch. I do. I really think our defense is about top 3 in the nation. Uh, we're not the 3. Uh, I would argue we're not the 2, but hey, you know, it is what it is. Um, but I feel as though our defense is, is elite, and I feel like we need to shut down John Mather. If all we have to do is rattle him, once we rattle him, it's ball game. this ball game. They're already struggling right now as is. Um, so I think they're desperate. Again, we did talk about that yesterday. They are desperate, and desperate teams do dangerous things, huh? They're very desperate. It's just like in life, a desperate man is a dangerous man. So we can't give them any hope, right? We can't give them— we can't give them no leeway, right? We have to make sure we keep our foot on their necks, especially our defense, because their defense— their defense is not bad. I gave you all the stat. I gave you all the stat yesterday. I'm going to give it to you again. They are top 5 in yards allowed. They have— their defense is actually really good. They're not a bad ball club. So we have to come out and handle business. But I do feel like those stats, they're going to show their head once again in this game defensively. We had already talked about defense. There's this one pivotal player that I think is going to play a major role um, in this game, and that's going to be Raheem Biles. Raheem Biles, yes indeed, yes indeed. Uh, the Pitt transfer, the linebacker. Um, and I think, I think he can quite literally play almost anywhere on the defense, and so does Sark. Yesterday, uh, Coach Steve Sarkisian, during his presser, uh, he, he said it's hard to take him off the field because when he's out there, generally good things happen. They do, they, they really do. He called him a 3-level threat. So he can play literally every level of the defense. He can, he can, he really can. And we're so, we're so lucky to have him. And I feel like how aggressive he is and how versatile he is, how Will Muschamp is going to use him, not even up to this point how he's already used him, but I think he's going to use him even more to in a greater capacity. He's going to have a serious print on this game. I do. I, I just, I just do. I, I really feel like it's gonna, it's gonna be 3 players. Right? It's going to be 3 players, but as of right now, we're going to talk about Raheem. Raheem is going to— I feel like he's going to make Mattier very, very uncomfortable. The— our edge room is already going to make him uncomfortable as is. I think adding Raheem to that— come on, come on. It's not— it's not even going to be— it's not going to be close. I mean, he already has an interception. He's due for another one. He's due for another one. And, and you have to fear him when he blitzes because he has— he can get to the quarterback. He can. He just can. Active hands, right? He can, he can come down. His coverage is not necessarily— it, it's not bad, right? It's not bad. But you know, he's going to improve as it, as it goes along. Um, so I'm excited. Raheem is going to do his thing. I think Raheem is gonna— he's going to be the chess piece of this. He is. He is. Yes, I know, Will. I know, I know. Will Muschamp, he has it, right? Um, and Colin Simmons is gonna— he's gonna do his thing, and Lance is gonna do his thing. But trust me when I say this, I haven't been wrong yet.
