  • the frustrating and familiar from this loss under Hugh Freeze

  • Auburn’s lack of a consistent running game after a hot start to the season

  • Jackson Arnold’s up-and-down return to Norman

  • how Oklahoma took away Arnold’s running and how the Tigers didn’t adapt to it

  • dividing up the responsibility for all those sacks

  • a day of struggle for the offensive line, especially with penalties

  • Auburn’s defense stepping up and giving a winning performance

  • all the major special teams miscues and how that’s a bad sign for the staff

  • Dan’s questions about some third-down decisions for Auburn’s offense

  • Cam Coleman’s explosive performance and how he could’ve gotten more involved

  • Eric Singleton’s target-heavy game and his overall efficiency through four games

  • a lightning round through the rest of Week 4 in college football, including some upset losses for big-name programs
