Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, and baking soda. Cut in 1-1/8 cups of cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside 2 cups of the mixture for the topping. Press the remaining oat mixture into a greased 13x9-inch baking pan. Arrange the sliced apples over the top.
