How BYU Beat OU: Besides Brent Venables Weakness at Coaching

Caleb LiSep 5, 2009

Seriously, this BYU loss was all on Brent Venables.

He cannot coach the secondary. I already wrote an article about this, but Max Hall threw for over 300 yards, and our DBs were made to look dumb. ย We could not cover the TE (remember the Florida game with Aaron Hernandez destroying us?) and I don't blame it on the players. It's the scheming.

This has gone on ever since Mike Stoops left. I don't want to ran more about this but feel free to check out my previous articleย http://bleacherreport.com/articles/39684-oklahoma-football-why-is-defensive-coordinator-brent-venables-not-fired-yet. He still cannot land a head coaching job because he is weak candidate.

I want to give a break down of how BYU beat Oklahoma:

#1: OU has no goto WR. ย Adrian Tennell had so many drop passes, why not just have a sticker and call him butter fingers. We should probably put some tar on his hands.

#2: OU's o-line had so many miscues: How many times did we hear #70 get called for false start or holding, especially at the most crucial moments. ย When Landry Jones came in, he had 2 holding calls go against him on the first play of each drive. ย That is pathetic.

#3: Last drive with 3 minutes left, why did we not pound them with our run game more. We needed 35 yards. We had 2 backs who were piling yardage. Go Figure.

#4: 4th and 14 and kicking a 54 yard field goal? Freshman Kicker? Come on. We can get pass interference calls if need be.

All in all, we just got out coached. ย It's the players fault and the coaches fault. ย The WR were not holding on to the passes, and the offensive line kept on holding and false starts. ย I'm not surprised Brent Venables got out-coached yet again.
