How OU football learned ‘margin for error is small’ in SEC during loss to Missouri
COLUMBIA, Mo. — When OU got the football back with the game tied and 1:03 left, it wouldn’t have been much of a surprise to see the Sooners play for overtime.
After all, they hadn’t had a passing play by a quarterback for more than 14 yards, so moving quickly down the field through the air seemed unlikely.
But OU coach Brent Venables decided to take a chance, especially after the pass-interference call drawn by Deion Burks in the first play of the drive.
After that, Xavier Robinson was stopped after a 5-yard gain to the OU 35 before Jackson Arnold’s fumble that was returned for what proved to be the game-winning touchdown in the Sooners’ 30-23 loss.
Venables said he saw an opportunity to break off a much bigger run on the call to get Robinson the ball.
“They’re in a really, really light box,” Venables said. “Added it up to get an explosive run there. … Thought it could be an opportunity to get a big run there and get them on their heels and to get them out of that concept.”
The drive before that wasn’t exactly much better.
OU’s defense had been fantastic all day, but over the last three plays melted down a bit.
Jacobe Johnson slipped just before Drew Pyne found Luther Burden for a 33-yard gain to give Missouri the ball at the 10, then former OU receiver Theo Wease made a strong play on a 10-yard touchdown pass that tied it with 1:03 remaining.
Not long before the touchdown, Woodi Washington was called for defensive holding after the Sooners looked like they’d come up with a third-down stop.
“It wasn’t like there was a big bust and somebody was wide open, you know,” defensive coordinator Zac Alley said. “We just had a couple mistakes in a game in the SEC; the margin for error is small.”
Here’s a look at the rest of the OU stock report after the Sooners fell to Missouri:
OU football stock report
Stock rising
Luke Elzinga, P: Elzinga was excellent at his primary job, with three punts for 44.3 yards including one inside the 20. But he also had a 43-yard completion to Bauer Sharp on an early fake punt, and had as many passing yards in the first half as did Jackson Arnold.
Danny Stutsman, LB: Stutsman finished with 19 tackles — his career high and tied for 11th in a game in OU history — against Missouri. Just as important, Stutsman didn’t miss any tackles, according to Pro Football Focus.
Stock falling
Jackson Arnold, QB: Arnold continues to take one step forward and two steps back. He was just 15 of 24 for 74 yards against the Tigers, plus he fumbled three times — losing two.
OU’s bowl hopes: The game against Missouri seemed OU’s best chase of making a bowl game, and they seem a long shot to make one at 5-7 based on APR numbers, so now the Sooners’ hopes for extending their bowl streak rest on pulling off an upset of either Alabama at home or LSU on the road. Neither seems particularly likely.
Redshirt tracker: Xavier Robinson one game away from mark
Freshman running back Xavier Robinson hadn’t played until the loss to Texas.
But now, Robinson is looking like one of the Sooners’ most effective running backs.
That could test Brent Venables’ desire to redshirt Robinson.
With Jovantae Barnes out and Gavin Sawchuk remaining less than 100%, Robinson was OU’s leading rusher against Missouri, with nine carries for 56 yards.
Almost all of Tatum’s production — seven carries for 48 yards — came on the Sooners’ game-tying drive in the fourth quarter. He also had a 7-yard reception on the drive.
“He was fantastic,” Venables said. “Just kind of building off what he showed last week as well, got in and did well early, in the early snaps he got in, went with him because he was running through trash, great instincts, ran well behind his pads, broke a lot of tackles.”
Robinson is averaging 5.7 yards per carry on 15 carries so far this season.
Here’s a look at the redshirt tracker after the win over Maine:
- Played in five or more games: Eli Bowen, Michael Boganowski, Ivan Carreon, Jaydan Hardy, Michael Hawkins Jr., Jayden Jackson, Devon Jordan, Zion Kearney, Dasan McCullough*, Reggie Powers III, Zion Ragins, David Stone, Taylor Tatum
- Played in four games: Jacob Jordan, Xavier Robinson, Makari Vickers*

WHEATLAND, Mo. — It was all Kerry Madsen on Saturday night at Lucas Oil Speedway as the 54-year-old native of Australia, who’s now based in Knoxville, Iowa, picked up his first Interstate Batteries High Limit Sprint racing victory.
Madsen led all 30 laps to earn the $12,000 prize. He outdistanced runner-up Sue Lynch by 2.79 seconds with Tanner Holmes finishing third.
“The car’s been super quick every time we’ve hit the track,” Madsen said, noting several competitive runs in the early portion of the High Limit schedule. “The car’s been quick every night, which gives you a lot of confidence.
“We haven’t drawn well in dashes and had some little stuff going on. We drew a good one (tonight) and the car was good and we got the job done. I’m pretty happy.”
That changed this time as Madsen beat Holmes in the dash, to claim the pole position for the feature.
Madsen said his young crew chief Ty Wolfgang has “done a great job” getting in sync with him. Communication has been a big key.
“I know it sounds weird, but just hanging out together,” Madsen said of the driver-crew chief chemistry. “Dinner and a beer and just talk about racing. You do that and it might be a Wednesday night, but something clicks. He’s been real receptive with that stuff and that’s great.”
Madsen, a former Knoxville Nationals 360 winner, paced the early going after starting from the pole, with Holmes in close pursuit. Action slowed on lap six with Chase Randall and Danny Samms III tangling in turn two for the first and only yellow of the event.
Lynch moved into second on the restart as Madsen opened a 1.5-second lead by lap nine as Holmes dropped to third. Madsen’s margin swelled to nearly two seconds by lap 11 – but Lynch tracked down the leader and cut the deficit to a half-second at the halfway mark on lap 15.
As the race continued until green-flag conditions, Madsen settled into a one-second advantage as Lynch and Holmes tried to keep pace. Madsen poured it on in the late stages, cruising to the checkers by nearly three seconds over Lynch.
“Hopefully we can keep rolling like this all year. Obviously, you can’t win every night, but being quick and running well is going to be awesome,” Madsen said.
Lynch, 28 from Cowansville, Pa., said the team found some steering issues and gave him a fast car. It just was not fast enough to stay with Madsen on Saturday night.
“We were battling steering issue in the dash and it was pretty obvious,” Lynch said. “We just didn’t have time to change it and we just tried to make it the best we could. Really the car was super good. The guys busted their butt all night. It’s a testament to the team. We’re working hard and hopefully one spot better real soon.”
Holmes, a 22-year-old from Jacksonville, Oregon, came home third with Daison Pursley fourth, Hank Davis fifth and Rico Abreu charging from 11th to sixth.
“Our best night of the year,” Holmes said. “We’ve got to race a little bit during a break with High Limit these last few weeks. Some of those nights when we got our teeth kicked in taught us a lot.”
Fast overall qualifier was Sye Lynch at 13.342 seconds out of Group A. Aaron Reutzel led Group B with a lap of 13.469 seconds. Both were well off the track record for 410 Sprints held by Rico Abreu at 12.829 seconds on June 29, 2024.
The finish:
Feature: 1. 55-Kerry Madsen[1]; 2. 42-Sye Lynch[3]; 3. 13-Tanner Holmes[2]; 4. 9-Daison Pursley[4]; 5. 17GP-Hank Davis[5]; 6. 24-Rico Abreu[11]; 7. 7BC-Tyler Courtney[12]; 8. 77-Giovanni Scelzi[6]; 9. 19-Brent Marks[9]; 10. 26-Justin Peck[10]; 11. 88-Tanner Thorson[15]; 12. 21-Brian Brown[14]; 13. 28-Jace Park[23]; 14. 87-Aaron Reutzel[7]; 15. 19JR-Joel Myers Jr[20]; 16. 45X-Rees Moran[21]; 17. 5-Brenham Crouch[19]; 18. 44-Chris Martin[8]; 19. 19H-Kaleb Johnson[22]; 20. 87X-Logan Seavey[17]; 21. 36-Jason Martin[16]; 22. 9R-Chase Randall[18]; 23. 24D-Danny Sams III[13]; 24. 2-Miles Paulus[24]
