00:00It is an SEC matchup and it's between two teams that
00:07desperately need it. Theme of this game, quarterback changes.
00:10First for Auburn, they go back to Peyton Thorne after a
00:15disastrous game last week for Hank Brown against Arkansas.
00:19Seven to thirteen, seventy-two yards, three INTs. He got
00:22yanked by Hugh Freeze. They went to Peyton Thorne. He
00:26provided a spark, yet albeit in a loss to the Razorbacks.
00:30For Oklahoma, Jackson Arnold, fourth-best quarterback
00:34recruit in the 2023 class, benched last week at Holmen
00:38Norman in the second quarterback against Tennessee,
00:41Michael Hawkins Jr., twentieth-best quarterback in
00:44the country in the 2024 class takes over. He also led some
00:48impetus behind that offense. He gets his first career start
00:52this week in Jordan Hare. Lacey, guys, you look at this
00:55game. Both teams, new quarterbacks kind of Peyton
00:58Thorne did start the year as the starter. Both teams
01:01desperately need it. It's basically a pick them on the
01:04money line. Minus 115 to Auburn, OU minus 104. Who gets
01:08this big win? Yeah, well, key is OU's top five receivers
01:12aren't gonna play in in this matchup. So, I think that's why
01:15you're seeing the line fluctuation. I'll just say this.
01:18You know, I know they lost last week but OU still showed
01:21mental resolve fighting back. Hawkins is a mobile guy. He did
01:25throw a touchdown. I think you'll get the most out of him
01:28in regards to this matchup. I believe in Brett Venables and
01:31that defense cap more than I buy into Hugh Freeze right now
01:34and I'll just say this. I've said this to the both of you.
01:37Hugh Freeze with Liberty, Malik Willis, Caden Salters, they
01:41are Jalen Millroe type of players. How does he have two
01:44guys that are completely stationary and Hank Brown and
01:48Peyton Thorne. That's not his offense and people are starting
01:51to get upset now in in Auburn. They're starting to, you know,
01:54call him out. That's not a good recipe. They'll get rid of him
01:58in in 2 years. Give me Oklahoma. You had some, you know,
02:02Twitter stuff going on as well. People are calling out Hugh
02:04Freeze. So, Peyton Thorne's gonna get the start here today
02:07cuz that was kind of the issue for me. Yeah. You know, the
02:09the uncertainty around both of these teams at the quarterback
02:11position. If it is Peyton Thorne, that would actually
02:14push me towards Auburn. Just the experience that he would
02:18have head to head over going tonight for Harris there and
02:22Oklahoma. The Jackson Arnold's obviously a disaster. So, I'm
02:25not telling you it's a downgrade. Yeah. But Peyton
02:28Thorne I think could be a steadying hand here. It's still
02:31tough to go to Auburn and grab a victory there and I do think
02:35we've seen from OU. Look, Tennessee's very good. That's
02:39also a team in OU that nearly lost the football game to a
02:41Houston team. That's a nightmare this season. I I lean
02:44on Auburn.
