The Oklahoma Breakdown with Ikard and Lehman

Show Notes

Gabe Ikard and Teddy Lehman give the "Keys to Victory" for Oklahoma football against the Georgia Bulldogs on September 26, 2026. They break down how they think John Mateer and the Sooners struggling offense need to attack the vaunted Georgia defense. They analyze the strengths of Gunner Stockton and the Georgia offense and explain what they believe the Sooners must do to slow down UGA's potent rushing attack and efficient passing game.

1:16 OU’s offense must attack the perimeter of Georgia’s defense and force their defensive backs to get off blocks and tackle in space

4:55 Isaiah Sategna and Rocky Beers have to consistently win matchups in the slot against Georgia’s nickel and linebackers

7:35 John Mateer and the Sooners wide receivers have to produce some explosive plays in the passing game attacking Demello Jones

12:00 Sooners must handle Georgia’s bear front pressure packages well in 3rd and long

16:19 OU’s offense must find some success with screens to slow Georgia’s pass rushers down

23:12 OU’s defensive line must control the line of scrimmage against a very physical UGA offensive line

25:50 Sooners linebackers must play downhill and force UGA’s offensive lineman to come off double teams faster than they want to

28:09 OU’s defensive backs must get off blocks and tackle in space against all of the perimeter screens Georgia will throw

32:22 Sooners defense must get after Gunner Stockton in 3rd and long situations

35:50 OU’s defensive line must stay in their rush lanes and not allow Gunner Stockton to do damage as a scrambler

38:48 Sooners must prevent the big chunk plays to Craig Dandridge and Lawson Lucky in play action
