Sunday Morning Kicker Podcast - Kicker und Punter in der NFL
In der 100. Folge bringen Chips die Kicker der USFL um den Verstand, die Galaxy und die Surge haben einen neuen Kicker und ich stelle die Punter Jake Camarda und Ryan Stonehouse, sowie die Kicker Caleb Shudak und Gabe Brkic für den NFL Draft vor.
Sports Illustrated Sooners publisher John Hoover, deputy editor Ryan Chapman and multimedia director Josh Callaway review Oklahoma's 28-21 win over Iowa State, including a thoroughly dominant defensive performance, the biggest big plays, OU's resurgent running game, more struggles from Caleb Williams and Gabe Brkic, and setting up next week's HUGE Bedlam showdown.
Just go listen. We're as defeated as the OU football team is right now. We hash out the problems with this team and the most glaring problems from the day. What needs to be fixed the fastest? Who needs to fix it? Josh and Carey have different takes on the Rattler stuff today. But they can both agree on a lot of other stuff. Eddie joins us later in the show from the road where we continue to work this stuff out. How does this happen after a bye week? Did the OL think the first series was a practice run? What about the future? Does Caleb Williams have a road game problem? Lincoln, what's going on with you? The run game was running and just stopped being used. We didn't coach this team but we'll take the hit for the loss. Also, Gabe Brkic... damn!
In the opening take, Lee goes over the big story of the day involving the "OU Daily" reporting on OU Football practice. Then Grant joins to talk more about the "OU Daily" story and the new story that OU has created for itself by canceling media availability (5:00). Grant has some early thoughts on the upcoming TCU game. What will we be saying about Caleb Williams after that game? And Lee wonders where Alex Grinch was on Tuesday (11:35)? OU's been very good after the Texas game under Lincoln Riley, but could this QB situation be a distraction that prevents the Sooners from properly preparing for TCU? Do we need to pump the breaks a bit on Caleb Williams (14:45)? Lincoln Riley's told us that Rattler has handled everything well. But what happens if things change (26:10)? Rattler has had every opportunity since the spring to improve and keep the starting QB job. Is it possible that Rattler has been feeling the heat from Williams since the spring (34:20)? Lee thinks back to the OU Spring Game and reads from his notes following a day in which Spencer Rattler didn't look very good, and Caleb Williams looked better. Grant remembers a conversation we had leaving the stadium that day (40:45). We check out the "3 Word Reviews" from the OU-Texas game which leads to Grant's disgusting food choice at the Texas State Fair, Kennedy Brooks, Texas fans eating crow, Caleb Kelly's great play (46:40). Caleb Williams seems to open up the RPO playbook for OU, and the Sooners ran GT Counter with great success on Saturday (50:40). Thoughts on Woodi Washington, Nik Bonitto being good, the importance of Jalen Redmond, Drake Stoops' NFL prospects, Gabe Brkic and Lincoln Riley's clock management (56:00). We look ahead to Saturday's game against TCU. The Horned Frogs' defense is weirdly bad this year (1:06:00). OU's defense has to face another elite running back this week in Zach Evans. What on earth can we expect from OU against what has been a pretty good TCU offense (1:10:55)? Our final thoughts and concerns about what will happen Saturday night vs TCU (1:14:35). Baylor is favored at home against BYU this week and there's a super interesting matchup between Iowa State and K-State in Manhattan (1:18:55). We make some picks on OSU-Texas/Michigan State-Indiana/Kentucky-Georgia/Ole Miss-Tennessee/UCLA-Washington (1:24:15). Lee allows Grant to gloat a bit for kind of prediciting that Texas A&M would beat Alabama and Grant continues to try and speak something into existence (1:35:50). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Grant thinks one big game day decision will likely determine the outcome of OU-Kansas State. Then Lee joins as we begin the show reading some of your "3 Word Reviews" from OU's most recent win over West Virginia. The reviews begin by pointing out OU's lack of rushing success (3:40). More thoughts on OU fans booing Spencer Rattler and the offense (11:05). How "close" is the offense really (22:15)? Gabe Brkic is a great kicker, but man he seems like a weird dude (26:25). A listener wants more Mike Woods and we agree. Plus we want more Marvin Mims touches (30:00). Should we be a little more forgiving with the way Rattler's playing based on his experience level? Plus Lee re-watched last year's K-State game and Rattler looked like a different player (35:15). Lee's operating under the assumption that Skylar Thompson will not play, but Grant is thinking we will see Thompson on Saturday. Lee thinks Will Howard has a chance to give OU problems with his legs and even with his arm. Deuce Vaughn is a problem, plus a little OU D-line talk (41:20). Outside of Vaughn, KSU's skill position players have not done much this year. And will K-State's offense use OU's aggressiveness against them (59:00)? Lee points out a play from the WVU game that shows how everything can fall apart simply by one player not doing their job on defense. Will we see Danny Stutsman (1:04:10)? K-State's defense has a different scheme this season that looks a lot like Iowa State. OU must find a way to run the ball, and will Rattler have time to throw and hit on explosive plays (1:11:30)? We give our final OU-Kansas State thoughts as well as a prediction (1:21:10). Texas goes to TCU this week and it would appear that the bet should be the Frogs plus the points. There's a weird line at West Virginia, and Iowa State's playing Kansas (1:29:00). Grant went 5-0 with his picks last week, Lee was terrible once again. We make picks on Iowa-Maryland/Arkansas-Georgia/Cincinnati-Notre Dame/Ole Miss-Alabama/Baylor-OSU (1:31:25). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

No opening take. We begin by praising Gabe Brkic's game-winning field goal and and revisiting all the bad omens that cropped up last week (1:30). Lee says his thoughts on OU football haven't changed following the win over West Virginia. Grant also adds his first thoughts on the close win (7:20). The OU students wanted Caleb Williams, and at other times in the game the whole crowed booed the Sooners. Lincoln Riley reacts to that (17:10). Spencer Rattler played well at the end of the game, but why can't he look like that all the time? OU's offense continues to struggle creating explosive plays. Lee's shocked at how Rattler's looked so far this season compared to what we saw in 2020 (22:00). Rattler was asked about the fans calling for Caleb Williams and the boos. Lee doesn't really have a problem with what the fans did. And hey there's a lot of chaos happening in college football and OU continues to be unbeaten (30:15). All OU fans want is more consistency from the offense. It's a cliche, but these tough times could help them down the line when the Sooners hopefully peak. And some final thoughts on the OU defense, plus Lee thought Casey Thompson looked really good against Texas Tech (39:30). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9
Oklahoma never led West Virginia Saturday night on Owen Field until the clock ran out. That's when Gabe Brkic hit a 30-yard field goal to give the Sooners a 16-13 victory over the Mountaineers. But this game will be remembered or something even more memorable. Fans were boo'ing Spencer Rattler. And others started chanting, "We want Caleb" during the game. How Rattler handles this going forward will define his legacy. But he also needs more help from the offensive line and some faith in the run game from his head coach and playcaller, Lincoln Riley. The defense had a very solid night holding WVU to just 226 total yards of offense. Carey and Eddie are here to break it all down and giving their advice to Rattler on how to handle the boo birds moving forward. It's another edition of the Eskridge Lexus Postgame Podcast.
Oklahoma battled Tulane in its season-opener on Saturday and the game was closer than most had projected. The Sooners were able to survive thanks to the leg of OU kicker Gabe Brkic, who set a school record. And while Brkic shined on the football field, his personality was just as exciting. Sooners beat writer Justin Martinez joins James D. Jackson on the podcast to discuss Brkic's play and personality.
In the opening take, Lee goes back through the Lincoln Riley era and points out all the times the Sooners have struggled as a massive betting favorites. Then Grant joins as the guys give their initial thoughts on the Tulane game. Grant says OU looks to be a mentally weak football team (5:40). Tulane's offense gave OU problems for most of the game. Bizarrely, OU's best offensive players mostly didn't do anything in 2020 (17:40). Lee tries to get into some of the good things we saw from the defense Saturday (26:10). Grant says he thought Tulane's defense tackled better than OU's defense. Lee thinks back to some comments last week from Pat Fields that may have foreshadowed Saturday's performance (31:00). Grant says it didn't look like OU's defense made any adjustments. Do we think this is a historical problem (36:00)? Grant gives his tentative grades for OU's safeties. Lee points out a couple of passes that OU DBs could have and should have intercepted (43:15). Defensive rotations became a hot topic on message boards. Was OU subbing too much (46:50)? Lee brings up a couple of young guys on defense that stood out to him through his camera lens. Plus more Grant ranting on the OU defense. Also, we see teams like Alabama, Georgia, and Clemson who have zero issues with defense -- yet OU always does (55:30). Let's talk offense, beginning with Spencer Rattler's game. Grant says he looked a lot like he did in 2020 and hasn't improved much at all (1:00:05). Why couldn't OU stretch the field, and what was up with OU's running game (1:06:20)? Mario Williams dropped a TD pass right in front of Lee. Plus we talk more about the WRs (1:13:00). Thoughts on the offensive line (1:14:50). Rattler said Tulane wanted to win the game more than OU. The guys can't wrap their head around that statement (1:17:15). OU's offense settled for field goals after back-to-back takeaways. That is unacceptable (1:24:20). Lee provides a little different perspective on Gabe Brkic (1:27:25). Grant has some final, strong thoughts about Spencer Rattler. The guys also debate the effectiveness of Jalen Hurts for some reason (1:29:05). You all gave us a ton of "3 word reviews" on the Facebook page as well as Twitter (1:33:40). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9
00:00 - Intro where Parker instantly goes Jalen Hurts and calls for "rat poison" being the issue. 01:00 - Stats are deceiving at times, aren't they? 03:30 - Mad props to Tulane for all they have been through to play that well in Norman. 04:30 - Tulane QB Michael Pratt took a beating 06:30 - What type of mindset did OU have? Is it a chronic issue of getting lax with a big lead? What's the root cause? Brandon and Parker discussed. 13:00 - OU was solid to VERY GOOD when focused, but when up 37-14 they let up and it showed until the final drive where the focus came back. Is this the last time that happens in 2021? 15:00 - Spencer Rattler's play. Heisman frontrunner not so hot vs Tulane. Does OU at least look at Caleb Williams if this keeps up? How many unenviable situations can the defense be put in before that becomes a legitimate conversation? Brandon and Parker feel Rattler rebounds and explain why, too. 19:45 - RB's need more touches. Kennedy Brooks and Eric Gray couldn't get into a rhythm. 22:00- They not run because of the OL? Lack of trust? Limited depth at RB? Parker and Brandon try to unpack a lot there on the Sooners run game and at times the lack thereof with the OU run game. Does Lincoln Riley lean on the RBs more as the season goes on? The staff also unpacks the OL starters and depth. Talent is there, they think and explain why they feel the tools are there for a good OL. 28:00 - Was the second half vs Tulane the worst in recent memory? When was the last time the Sooners scored three points or less? 30:00 - Safety play. Brandon and Parker duck at the tomatoes being thrown at them for their takes of the OU safeties and they discuss the players that really stood out with GOOD play vs Tulane. Hint: Marvin Mims, Isaiah Thomas, and Gabe Brkic were talked about A LOT! 39:00 - Did rotating so many guys have an effect on the Sooners' play with players not getting in a rhythm or getting going like they normally would? 40:00 - Mike Woods play at WR in debut? Is Marvin Mims playing at an elite level? What makes him so special? 41:50 - Gabe freaking Brkic. That is all. Gabe Brkic is insanely good and had a record-setting day. 44:30 - Weirdly efficient day offensively when you look at possession chart. OU only did not score on two possessions all game long. 48:00 - This team losses the game in 2020 and 2019 if they play like they did vs Tulane. 2021 team is different with talent. Brandon and Parker discuss why and also their feeling of OU being bored up 23-points. Almost cost them. 50:00 to podcast end - Where will OU be ranked in new rankings? What's next for the Sooners? Can they rebound and live up to potential?
