Former Oklahoma Sooners offensive coordinator and current Tennessee Volunteers offensive analyst Seth Littrell's name is an important one as OU hosts the Auburn Tigers, and Jackson Arnold, this Saturday.
Littrell's the offensive coordinator whose schemes were supposedly not being run well enough by Arnold during the 2024 season, leading to his being replaced by Michael Hawkins Jr. several times before Jon Joe Finley took over as lead play-caller. Arnold got the ball back, but the damage was done.
Littrell's firing, and reinsertion of Arnold by season's end, proved Brent Venables didn't think the quarterback was the problem.
