Skip Bayless explains the biggest difference between Caleb Williams and Spencer Rattler
With the Oklahoma QB controversy waging on and Caleb Williams starring for the Sooners, Skip Bayless offered his take on Williams and Spencer Rattler.
After seeing Caleb Williams lead the Oklahoma Sooners last week against Texas, there was little drama — other than that which head coach Lincoln Riley created himself — about who the starting quarterback would be after he replaced Spencer Rattler.
So, as expected, Williams took the field and looked phenomenal. And the true freshman’s performance had plenty of people impressed, including someone who’s never afraid of sharing his opinion
As he’s wont to do, Skip Bayless, a noted Oklahoma football fan, could see the stark difference between the Sooners led by Williams as opposed to the team that was led by Rattler.
Bayless didn’t stop there, though, as he offered more insight into the difference he saw.

The one thing that separates Caleb Williams and Spencer Rattler in the eyes of the ineffable Skip Bayless: Leadership.
For as often as Bayless is firing off takes with ill regard for if they are senseless or not, he’s hitting the nail on the head with this one.
When Williams took over to lead Oklahoma’s comeback against Texas, the sidelines had substantially more life than when Rattler was at the helm of the offense. And that has bled into the freshman’s first start of his career with the Sooners.
Considering that Lincoln Riley’s team avoided any losses with Rattler at the helm, if Williams is this big of a boost for the Sooners, this could be a game-changer down the stretch in Norman.
