Social media reacts to Oklahoma’s terrible first half against South Carolina

Oklahoma coach Brent Venables speaks with South Carolina coach Shane Beamer before a college football game between the University of Oklahoma Sooners (OU) and the South Carolina Gamecocks at Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium in Norman, Oklahoma, Saturday, April 19. October 2024.

Oklahoma coach Brent Venables speaks with South Carolina coach Shane Beamer before a college football game between the University of Oklahoma Sooners (OU) and the South Carolina Gamecocks at Gaylord Family – Oklahoma Memorial Stadium in Norman, Oklahoma, Saturday, April 19. October 2024.

The Oklahoma Sooners played as terrible a first half as a football team can play, leading the South Carolina Gamecocks 32-3.

Turnovers, poor defense, dropped passes, no chance to shoot and defensive mistakes made this home game a laugh for the Sooners. Michael Hawkins turned the ball over on Oklahoma’s first three possessions with two interceptions and a fumble. The Gamecocks returned two of them for points and the route was open.

Then Jackson Arnold came in to replace Hawkins, and while the offense moved the ball a bit, the offensive line’s ineffectiveness against a good South Carolina team ultimately led to sacks at the end of the drive.

The Sooners are simply outclassed in every aspect of the game. Shane Beamer is absolutely superior to Brent Venables. His team was better prepared, more intense and at a much higher level.

The crime is not just about execution. The talent isn’t there and the plan isn’t doing them any favors. OU’s offensive staff simply doesn’t have the answers.

At this point, it’s pretty clear that the Sooners are not ready for the SEC and some important decisions need to be made in the near future. At this point, it’s not about whether the Sooners lose; It depends on how much they lose.

Here’s how Oklahoma fans and media reacted to the Sooners’ terrible first-half performance.

Time to change something

Unreal

Catastrophic

And it never got better

Nothing is going right

Runs it up

At this point there is no reason to continue

Do they have what it takes to bring about change?

Not a great place to live

That’s all of us

Disturbing performance
