U40: Is the decision on Maikkula's backup tearing apart the Scoop staff?

SoonerScoop.com — Wed, 19 Aug 2026 21:51:00 GMT

Another day over 100 degrees, but nothing stops the Unofficial 40. We are one week closer to kickoff, and at this point, any college football will do the trick. The guys hit the studio with plenty to discuss, and possibly an egregiously long discussion over who will be the Sooners' center with Jake Maikkula's timeframe uncertain. Josh and Parker have been hitting the recruiting trail hard while George plays with his new favorite football toy, and to be fair we are all a little jealous. Oklahoma's win total saw a slight bump and maybe the hype around the receiver room has something to do with it? Probably not. There is plenty to watch out for before camp closes, speaking of watch, Carey has turned George into a watch guy now...Eddie couldn't care less. Fill in the desire for football with SoonerScoop on this addition of the Unofficial 40 Podcast.

They also checked in on the state of OU's running back room and the receivers, as well as taking a look at the depth on defense before turning their attention to the Preseason AP Top 25 and Todd McShay's glowing comments about the program.

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 19 Aug 2026 12:00:00 GMT

Jay Smith and Jay Smith break down the Sooners’ fearless mentality, Brent Venables’ leadership, and why John Mateer's arm isn’t the only key to a national championship run.
