Episode notes
Oklahoma's Prep Time And Kicking Matter
- Oklahoma's offense looked bad much of the year but can be schemed into a few timely scores with long prep time and game tape.
- Special teams (elite kicker Tate Sandell) raise Oklahoma's winning odds in a low-scoring game.
Miami Defense Slides Away From Home
- Miami's defense drops off significantly on the road, creating vulnerability against strong opponents.
- Carson Beck's protection and pocket time will be decisive versus A&M's pass rush.
Disrupt The Run To Expose Both QBs
- Stop the run and pressure the quarterback to force Miami into predictable passing downs.
- If A&M can block the four-man rush, use screens and tempo to punish Miami's pass-rush discipline.
