Hour 2: …but how about Mestemaker & the Pokes?

Mark Rodgers and Cale Gundy discuss the firing of Ben Arbuckle as Oklahoma offensive coordinator today. Is he being used as a scapegoat for the ineptitude of Brent Venables as head coach? Do you have confidence in Jason Witten as a play caller? What do you make of the Cowboys collapse? Does the GM deserve any responsibility for OU’s struggles, or does their role in a college program still fall back on the head coach? Why didn’t OU play another quarterback on Saturday night?
