Pick Dundee aka (@TheColbyD) & Patty C (@PattyC831) break down the entire Golden Gophers offense, defense and special teams and key in on their upcoming 2024 schedule.

Will the wideout room be vastly improved with Daniel Jackson, Elijah Spencer, Cristian Driver, and Tyler Williams? Will the offensive line be the strongest part of this team with 4 of 5 back up front?What should we expect from new DC Corey Hetherman? Will the defensive line be elite in the Big Ten with Danny Striggow, Jah Joyner, Deven Eastern and Jalen Logan-Redding? Is the linebacking core the best strength on this Gophers defense with Jack Henderson, Cody Lindenberg and Devon Williams? How should we grade the 2024 Gophers secondary with Justin Walley, Ethan Robinson, Darius Green and Coleman Bryson?

Ep. 305 - The TE Room is Already Better & Offensive Line Questions

No opening take today as the guys briefly talk about the sad state of affairs we are dealing with now that college football is over. Zac Alley has been officially announced as OU's new co-DC/LB coach (07:00). Trace Ford is coming back in 2024 (12:00). OU picks up TE Jake Roberts from Baylor and North Texas. Lee watched some of his tape and likes what he sees. Plus this could give OU an edge at recruiting Roberts' younger brother. OU's TE room is already much improved from 2023 (15:45). Casey Thompson is going to be OU's backup QB. Lee watched some Michael Hawkins highlights for the first time (27:00). The offensive line has been a popular topic of late. We go to the WoE Facebook page to read comments about the offensive line. Grant explains what he thinks may be the main gripe from those who are skeptical of OU's offensive line. Lee looks back at all the O-linemen who've been drafted since Bill Bedenbaugh's been at OU. We look ahead to 2024's o-line group (38:00). Will OU have a chance at any of the transfer players from Alabama and Washington? Grant calls Nick Saban's retirement an "earthquake" across college football. The guys agree Kalen DeBoer is an excellent hire for Alabama (1:01:30). Michigan wins the National Championship. Michael Penix did not play well. Grant's kind of jealous of Michigan fans. Why did OU always have to play awesome teams when the Sooners were vying for national titles? Was Washington's running back room somehow worse than OU's group (1:13:15)? Marcus Major is transferring to Minnesota. Will he do anything in the Twin Cities (1:34:25)? Lastly, the basketball team still can't win in Lawrence (1:38:30). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

In the opening take, Lee points out that Oklahoma has improved a very important statistic drastically through four games. Then Grant joins to talk about teammates celebrating each other, a brief NFL sidebar, and PFF College showing that they're not an outlet that has a whole lot of credibility (3:20). What do we make of Jeff Lebby and Ted Roof not having press conferences anymore? Lincoln Riley recently suspended a reporter, which we obviously have to rip Riley for (9:50). Let's talk about the OU RB situation-- it's still weird. Lee slightly amends his take on Marcus Major from the Cincinnati game (also some Dillon Gabriel zone read talk), and Brent Venables seems uncomfortable answering questions about Barnes and Sawchuk not playing much (17:10). Savion Byrd is good to go, and what's the deal with Reggie Pearson moving forward (30:45)? Grant provides an update on where OU stands in a lot of analytical rankings. The defense is much better, but is it all because of a soft schedule (35:00)? Grant was watching old OU-ISU games recently. We dig into this week's game by talking about the Cyclones truly terrible offense (47:50). Iowa State's defense seems to be very good again, although they haven't faced any good offenses yet. Even though on paper OU should win easily, will the Sooners be looking ahead to Texas (1:06:20)? We read a couple of comments from the WoE Facebook page (1:16:20). Let's take a look at the Big 12, beginning with a weird line in the Cin-BYU game. Texas Tech is in desperation mode. UCF is a double-digit favorite over Baylor and is WVU-TCU a trap (1:19:10)? Finally we make our weekly picks. Games include Utah-Oregon State/USC-Colorado/KU-Texas/LSU-Ole Miss/Notre Dame-Duke (1:27:20). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

The guys discuss OU's 20-6 win at Historic Nippert Stadium. Lee says you can't complain about a win to get to 4-0, especially after last season. The defense looks to be much improved, and is Danny Stutsman a serious contender for the Butkus? OU's defense was terrific on 3rd down as well, and it was good to see them force a couple of turnovers. OU's offense was hit & miss, but did enough. We still don't understand Marcus Major getting the majority of the carries, but I think we just have to accept it at this point. We'd really love to see the wide receivers touch the football more. Plus we read your "3 Word Reviews" from the WoE Facebook page as well as Twitter! | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

In the opening take, Lee goes to the WoE Facebook page and highlights a listener who's happy about what he's seen from the Sooners' defense so far. Then Grant joins the show as we give our thoughts on the Art Briles/Jeff Lebby situation (5:10). What's the injury situation surrounding Dasan McCullough and Justin Harrington? Who plays Cheetah if those guys are unable to play? Gentry Williams is available this week. Lee shares some impressive 3rd down defense stats (9:25). Tulsa's offense has been operating without its starting QB. This is a game where OU's defense can have some fun. Will they (21:50)? Jeff Lebby says they want to get Jovantae Barnes and Gavin Sawchuk going this week. We got an answer as to why Jaquaize Pettaway didn't do anything against SMU. Marcus Major is what he is. Does Jeff Lebby know what he wants this OU offense to be (25:30)? Is there any reason to be concerned with OU's offensive line? We read a listener comment about J. Barnes vs. M. Major, and one listener tells us he's going to the Cincinnati game (36:30). We look around the Big 12. Grant thinks Cincinnati may be good. Can BYU score against Arkansas? Lee got a bad number in the Texas-Wyoming game, Houston may be the worst team in the Big 12, and could Kansas be one of the best teams in the Big 12 by season end (45:45)? We each went 3-2 last week making picks. This week's slate includes Penn State-Illinois/K-State-Missouri/Minnesota-UNC/Washington-Michigan St./Tennessee-Florida (56:20). |Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

In the opening take, Grant is fully pumped for football season. Then Lee joins to try and remember the last time they watched an OU game together. We're not buying that Marcus Major and Justin Harrington will be atop the depth chart all season long (5:45). We look back at what turned out to be a prescient season preview show from 2022 (20:45). Our "Big Season Preview" for 2023 includes a bunch of unanswerable questions, beginning with OU's up tempo offense (30:35). Will Jackson Arnold play significant snaps in 2023 (37:35)? Will OU's defense improve (44:50)? Will the Sooners be a better team after halftime (48:40)? Will we know by the end of the season if Jeff Lebby is the right guy for OC (53:20)? Will Ted Roof make it through the season (59:40)? Will we know by the end of the season if Brent Venables is the right man for the job (1:04:50)? We decide to be jerks and debate which 3 veteran players will be more of a non-factor throughout the season (1:08:20). There's been positive developments on the Jayden Gibson front (1:15:00). Which player's All-American season can lead OU to 10 wins in the regular season? We answer, plus we read listener picks from the WoE Facebook (1:17:50). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

Did Oklahoma Sooners win the transfer portal when they landed Indiana Hoosiers linebacker Dasan McCullough? Can the Sooners secondary take the next step with the likes of Woodi Washington, Billy Bowman, Reggie Pearson, Kendel Dolby?

When will the embarrassment stop for Sooners after Texas STOMPS Oklahoma 49-0|Can it be fixed in 2022 season?| Three things that need fixed for OU to win| Recruiting fallout?| MORE Topic Timestamps: 00:00 - Podcast intro before Brandon Drumm and Parker Thune go scorched earth on the Sooners' play vs Texas and where this program is right now! 04:00 - How much worse can it get? Has Brent Venables' team quit already because Parker says it seems to be that way from the field view? No excuses, even without two main key players like Dillon Gabriel and Billy Bowman out. The program had so many bad "first times" in Texas's beating of Oklahoma. 09:00 - Talent (excluding backup QB, as we have seen with Davis Beville) is there, but is this a personnel problem? Is the Sooners' staff not playing the right guys in the right spots? Can this team gain the confidence to make a run? They looked dejected at the post-game podium. What's the issue with this team's football IQ? Examples of ineptness are talked about. 15:50 - Offense... W.T.F? WildWillie (Brayden Willis) and GrayCat (Eric Gray) worked so well between the '20s (20-yard line to 20-yard line), so why get away from it when you're in the red zone? And you lost all newness after halftime to surprise Texas, so why not have a wrinkle or two that isn't a STUPID jump pass? Why go back to Davis Beville? What can OU do offensively when Gabriel comes back? Brandon and Parker discuss how they need to feature Jalil Farooq, Brayden Willis, and Marvin Mims at ALL times they aren't running Gray, Marcus Major, or Jovantae Barnes. Get them out and space, and let those guys go to work! 26:00 - Is this team worn out? Venables talks about it, and Brandon cites a well-placed source that said similar to him last week and went into detail on that. 28:30 - Brandon and Parker name three things on the offense and defense that need fixed NOW for Oklahoma to start getting back on track, if that is possible at all! Names like Jaren Kanak, Gentry Williams, Woodi Washington staying at safety, Kani Walker, CJ Coldon, four-man fronts, or being multiple IF YOU'RE GOING TO CLAIM BEING MULTIPLE! Also, finding a different backup QB like Nick Evers, General Booty? Micah Bowens? 40:00 - Are there some older guys still not buying in or giving their all for this squad? Brandon and Parker discuss. 45:00 - What is this team's identity? Do they have one? How do they get one in mid-season if they don't have one already? And how much of this is personnel on defense and the fact the players were recruited for a different type of defense? Players are talented but look nothing like the players BV had at Clemson. 51:00 - Recruiting fallout? Is there one? Brandon and Parker talk over/under on two decommits. Answer may shock some and may shock others, but they break it down. The Colton Vasek rumors discussed. 56:40 - Will there be a change in how things are done? Could OU change some things up on the defensive side? Will BV take over full control of the defense? If there is a "fall guy," who will that be? 1:06:24 - Podcast over To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Anything yet? Brandon and Parker discuss that and ask why everyone thinks Nebraska is all of the sudden so bad when their last 13 losses were by single-digits? Why haven't other programs dominated them like OU did on Saturday? 8:30 - Did the Sooners response to 7-0 lead by Nebraska show anything? 10:00 - Defense is becoming quite good. How good can they be?

PostGame: Sooners Jekyll/Hyde but dominate Kent State 33-3| Defense looking solid, what's offense issue?| Scott Frost firing & how that changes OU/Neb game| Q&A from VIP'ers| HUGE recruiting weekend Oklahoma started off with one of the worst first halves of football we have seen, offensively, in years for the Sooners. Oklahoma was able to salvage things behind Dillon Gabriel, Marvin Mims, Drake Stoops, Eric Gray, and Marcus Major, and on the defensive side, Oklahoma was led by Reggie Grimes, Danny Stutsman, Billy Bowman, Jalen Redmond, and Justin Broiles. After a 2-0 start, Brent Venables and Oklahoma are headed to Nebraska, where Scott Frost was fired, and WR coach Mickey Joseph was given the interim head coaching job. Will that have a huge impact on how things go from here on out for Nebraskas, and most specifically, the Sooners game this weekend? If so, how will it impact things? What do we expect from OU this week vs Nebraska? Standouts from OU/Kent State game? Q&A questions answered from OUinsider VIP members on the podcast, and Brandon and Parker dive into the HUGE recruiting weekend and where things stand with OU targets like five-star DB Peyton Bowen, four-star DB Ryan Yaites, and four-star DL Jordan Renaud (only official visitor this weekend).

Post-Game Podcast: Sooners win 45-13 over UTEP in Brent Venables' first game as head coach| The good/bad from the game on offense/defense| Standouts| Reggie Grimes huge day| Gavin Freeman play| Youngsters making their mark| MORE!  Oklahoma comes out guns blazing to jump on top of UTEP 21-0 early on in the Sooners initial game of the 2022 season. Oklahoma ended up winning 45-13 in their home opener, with Dillon Gabriel, Eric Gray, Marcus Major, Brayden Willis and Gavin Freeman all had big plays on offense on Saturday to help the Sooners roll. The side everyone wanted to see was Brent Venables' defense and they came to play. Sure tackling in open space, six sacks from the Sooners' front seven. UTEP had 51 pass attempts and completed 31 of them, but only averaged 5.8 a completion. Brandon Drumm and Parker Thune discuss the secondary and why how they covered was by design, along with the huge day from DE Reggie Grimes. He was joined by safety Billy Bowman, LB Danny Stutsman, DE Ethan Downs and freshman EDGE rusher R Mason Thomas as standouts on defense. They discuss what made them standouts, along with other young players on both sides of the ball that made their mark and more! TimeStamps 00:00 - Podcast intro 02:30 - Atmosphere/ intro and "They set the standard, we defend it," mantra by Brent Venables in the intro video before the Sooners ran out. Drumm poses the question "will they ever ask Muleshoe" to be in the video 10-20 years from now? His history is a part of OU football good or bad with Big 12 Titles. Both he and Parker concede that won't happen anytime soon and both admit they still dislike how Muleshoe handled things. Drumm admits it was a troll question, but will have people talking one way or another. 14:30 - Atmosphere was great! It was scorching hot, but the older crowd stayed and student section left with 9 min left in second quarter in a two possession game. The history has been the same for several years with that section. Drumm says they are VITAL to atmosphere in stadium and help make it LOUD. Both say they will let the next few games play out before going all-in and fully understand some fell out yesterday due to heat and hope all is okay today. Also, hope there is more passion from student section in the future. 31:00 - Offensive standouts. The good/bad. What was the first thing most noticeable according to Drumm with the offense. Something that has been an issue for the offense over the last few years and why this was a good change if it continues over the season. Parker concurs and adds his two cents on offense. 35:00 - Defense standouts. Young players making their mark. Vanilla base defense and why secondary was still good when you deep dive into stats. Reggie Grimes was a star. Billy Bowman was what we were told he was. 38:00 - The secondary was a topic of conversation on OUinsider VIP. Brandon and Parker say how things were done was scheme and if you deep dive into the stats, you'll see the Sooners secondary was pretty good yesterday. A few were coverage sacks. 47:00- Brandon and Parker name their offense/defense players of the game. 51:00 - Gavin Freeman and the cool story he has a walk-on legacy that had P5 offers elsewhere and chose to walk-on at OU. 55:30 - Youngsters that stood out and made their mark in game one of 2022 season. 1:03:00 - Recruiting talk/unofficial visitors at the Sooners game vs UTEP. 1:11:00 - Brent Venables game ball and getting emotional.

In the opening take, Lee reminds everybody that OU's in need of a new kicker in 2022. Then Grant joins to lambast Lee's decision to talk about kickers in the opening take (5:05). What's going on with the offensive line? We play Brent Venables' comments on the OL from Tuesday that leave out Anton Harrison when seemingly discussing the top tackles on the team (9:50). How good might freshmen Jake Taylor and Jacob Sexton be (20:55)? Who are the five players on the inside of the offensive line that Venables was talking about (24:20)? Billy Bowman's playing better than anybody else on defense right now. Is this finally going to be the year we are super high on the OU secondary and they finally don't disappoint us (25:10)? Brent Venables fears that LB T.D. Roof has a season-ending biceps injury. The linebackers are the biggest question mark on defense, so it's a good thing Venables coaches these guys (37:00). Marcus Major is playing his best ball -- does it matter (43:30)? No updates on Jalen Redmond, but Lee did see a positive sign at practice Tuesday (47:00). Over to the WoE Facebook page where we field comments on listeners who are fully buying in to OU being a Playoff contender this year. Is this the most excited you've ever been for an OU football season? And what do we know about the new tailgating developments at OU (48:40)? Brief talk about Jacobe Johnson committing to OU and a different 2023 OU commit got a 5th star. Lee also shoehorns a "Varsity Blues" reference in (1:04:00).

No opening take today. We start by giving some love to Drake Stoops and then the rest of the OU receivers. Grant says the offensive gameplan against Texas Tech is what OU is going to have to do to win a Playoff Game. Grant wants to move on from Kansas, but Lee is not ready to just forget it totally. Lee's got a rant about why that Kansas game is still something to remember moving forward (9:20). Key Lawrence moving to corner looked to make a huge difference. DJ Graham returning also helped OU's defense. Just how important are cornerbacks in this defensive scheme (14:10)? Texas Tech's first two TDs were preventable. When Lincoln Riley says they're "close" -- this actually does look like OU is "close" to being much better. Isaiah Thomas had a nice game and OU was able to get more TFLs than they have recently (25:00). We go to "3 Word Reviews" that lead us to talking about Billy Bowman losing his Nickel job to Justin Broiles, Spencer Rattler taking a deep shot and experiencing a really cool moment, the first Playoff rankings come out this week and we tell you why you shouldn't care, finally an enjoyable OU football game, more Key Lawrence love, and a Marcus Major sighting (29:30). OU's on a 17 game winning streak. OU played 9 straight games and thank God the schedule has been easy. And Lee gives Grant credit for being the only person who correctly predicted Iowa State's season and Grant's picks on the podcast went 5-0 last week (52:30). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

**NOTE: we recorded before we found out Marcus Major was ineligible -- but it shouldn't really change anything we said** -- In the opening take, Lee recently learned a little something about Cover-2 from an expert on the subject. Then Grant joins to tell the story about how Florida fans attacked him on Twitter one time. Followed by a few thoughts on Andrew Raym being incredibly confident (11:45). Time for the "Big Season Preview" -- who will be OU's leading rusher in 2021? And aside from those two, who else will have the most impact at RB (16:00)? What about OU's leading pass catcher in 2021 (32:30)? Grant feels really good about DTY leading the team in tackles -- Lee disagrees (40:20). Nik Bonitto's probably gonna lead OU in sacks in 2021, so Grant wants to know if it's crazy wonder if the Sooners can get to 60 sacks as team (44:30)? The guys both cheat when picking the most important offensive player besides Spencer Rattler (52:15). Lee has an off the wall pick for most important defensive player (59:55). Let's talk sleeper impact players, beginning with the offense. And we're not allowed to pick any true freshmen (1:04:20). Lee builds up his sleeper impact defensive player before realizing he's thinking about a different category later in the show. But hey Lee's pretty confident in this sleeper pick, though (1:09:00). Mario Williams is the easy answer for true freshman offensive impact player (1:15:25). This has been the moment Lee's been teasing all show -- who will be the true freshman player who will have the most impact on defense (1:17:55). Grant says West Virginia could be a trap game on OU's schedule -- Lee agrees, but doesn't think OU has a true trap game. Grant thinks Nebraska could sneak up on the Sooners (1:24:30). Okay, time to get a little negative. What is the worst case scenario for OU football in 2021? If OU lost Rattler for an extended period of time, could Caleb Williams keep OU afloat (1:36:15)? Time to pull out the Crimson & Cream glasses as we give you realistic Best Case Scenarios for the Sooners (1:42:00). Lee has a boring take on OU's regular season record, while Grant swings for the fences (1:47:20). Grant says TCU will be better than people think. Lee is picking K-State as the Big 12's underrated team (1:52:45). Grant takes a lot of joy in telling us that Iowa State is overrated. Lee somewhat agrees, but thinks Texas is more overrated than ISU (1:58:30). Lee's going chalk for the Big 12 Championship Game -- Grant has a different pairing. Also Lee thinks Mike Gundy seems unusually happy and positive about his team (2:05:50). Let's look around college football for some overrated teams. The guys both agree Texas A&M is overvalued (2:09:15). Lee thinks a couple of Pac 12 teams are underrated. Meanwhile Grant says Iowa is really underrated (2:16:20). We try to make our Heisman predictions quick (2:22:45). Time to pick each Power 5 Conference Champ in this order -- Big 12, ACC, Big Ten, SEC, Pac 12. Grant loves Wisconsin, Lee doesn't. Alabama's schedule is a little trickier at the start than usual. Is UCLA potentially underrated? And somehow both guys picked the same team to win the Pac 12 (2:25:40). We make our College Football Playoff Predictions, and then Lee follows the rules of the podcast for his National Champion prediction. Grant goes a different direction (2:42:30). We finally wrap up this absurdly long podcast as we look towards to Week Zero and Tulane prep next week (2:50:00). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Grant applauds OU for a Cotton Bowl victory in what he believes was a complete joke of a game. Then Lee joins to congratulate Grant on correctly predicting the outcome of the game and Grant expands on why he was so annoyed with Florida. Lee wasn't as annoyed and was mostly happy with what he saw in the Cotton Bowl (4:30). Lee thinks Kyle Trask's teammates hung him out to dry in that game (13:00). We jump into the "3-word reviews" as they drive the show beginning with OU's historical rushing effort. Marcus Major was fantastic, so will we have to eat crow (16:15)? It was cool to see OU's offense go up against a non-Big 12 defense. How weird is that (21:50)? Creed Humprhey declares for the NFL Draft. Who else will leave (24:20)? Get ready for a bunch of National Championship hype leading into 2021. Can this team handle it (35:00)? Let's all give it up for Tre Norwood (42:00). Don't worry about Alex Grinch going anywhere for now (47:30). Lee wasn't as bothered by Dan Mullen's postgame comments as some people, but there was one thing he said that Lee thought was ridiculous (50:40). OU finished it off in the second half and Grant noticed something that really shows the transformation of OU's defense from 2017 to now (54:40). Quickly looking back at some PFF grades from OU defensive players in the 2017 Rose Bowl (58:00). Woodi Washington and D.J. Graham may have bright futures (1:00:40). Although we're trying to stay positive, we've got to acknowledge the defense didn't play all that well against Florida (1:04:00). Lee has one more interesting PFF nugget from the Cotton Bowl (1:08:25). Spencer Rattler continues to be fun to watch, but perhaps his one weakness is working the middle of the field (1:11:40). We continue on with "3-word reviews" from Twitter (1:14:00). Lee doesn't get the appeal of the Malcolm Kelly freestyle rap, but Grant thinks it's awesome (1:16:20). This season had so many similarities to the 2016 season (1:19:00). Although Creed Humphrey didn't think anybody believed in the team at 1-2, we at West of Everest sure did (1:21:50). There's gonna be a lot of pressure on OU this offseason. Plus is a wide receiver going to win the Heisman (1:24:00)?

In the opening take, Lee tells you what he was thinking throughout Saturday's crazy win over Texas. Then Grant joins to briefly talk about his appearance on another OU football podcast (5:50). Lee thought re-watching that game was exhausting. Grant defends re-watching old OU games (7:00). We get into the game. Horrible start for OU, but then out of nowhere the Sooners got a takeaway. OU really shut down the Texas run game (10:25). The OL and the running backs played their best game, particularly T.J. Pledger (14:05). The offense struggled punching it in from short yardage early in the game (18:25). Tre Brown got an interception wiped off the board. Was it really a bad call? Lee's worried that OU's coaches could be reinforcing bad habits (21:10). Marcus Major had his best run as a Sooner and was aided by some nice blocking on the perimeter (25:00). Lee breaks down the x's and o's of Spencer Rattler's touchdown pass to Marvin Mims (28:20). Grant wants to talk a little about Linconl Riley's play calling philosophy (33:15). Spencer Rattler's interception was absolutely horrible (36:45). OU's defense holds Texas to a field goal, but Lee saw another example of Alex Grinch's high risk/high reward scheme that burned the Sooners (38:35). Rattler's turns it over again (42:00). If OU was 3-0, would Riley have put Mordecai into the game? And Pledger fumbles on his best run of the year (46:40). Nik Bonitto made a great 3rd down play on Ehlinger, which led to David Ugwoegbu blocking the punt. Grant would like OU to stop getting celebration penalties (50:20). Lee's glad that Mordecai got his shot, but unfortunately two plays really stood out showing that Mordecai is not ready for primetime (59:45). Isaiah Thomas was fantastic and he's been a bright spot for OU (1:10:15). Marvin Mims needs to touch the ball more. He sets OU up for its first touchdown of the 3rd quarter, followed by that super long 8+ minute TD drive (1:12:10). Defense gets a 3 & out, offense takes over with a 14 point lead, and that's when the play calling gets indefensible (1:17:00). OU's defense kept getting Texas off the field, but the offense couldn't put the game away (1:25:00). Woodi Washington picks off Ehlinger, which should have finally been the nail in Texas' coffin. It wasn't (1:31:50). Rattler almost gives the ball back to Texas, and we both didn't have a problem with OU passing the ball on 3rd & 9 (1:38:40). Grant was really frustrated with Lincoln Riley in the 4th quarter (1:43:35). Of course Texas goese down and ties the game, aided by a couple of penalties by Pat Fields (1:45:30). Rattler to Stogner in OT was beautiful(1:49:20). It wouldn't be an OU-Texas game if Texas didn't get away with a blatant penalty that led to a touchdown (1:55:05). How cool was it to see OU block a field goal (1:57:00)? Never trust college kickers unless you absolutely have to. And Grant makes a really good argument for why you don't kick Brkic when they did (1:59:30). Drake Stoops scored a touchdown and Tre Brown ended that horribly long game (2:07:10). Lee has some startling stats about penalties by secondary players (2:08:35). We play a soundbite from Alex Grinch and say some nice things about the OU defense (2:15:00). We find out live on the show that Nick Saban has Covid (2:29:50). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Grant has some advice for us as we look ahead to the remainder of the 2020 college football season. Then Lee joins to ask Grant for his hot takes, and we start with Spencer Rattler talk (4:40). Lee comes in with a hot take about Marvin Mims, which leads Grant to go into his full fledged defense of Charleston Rambo (17:20). Okay now let's talk about Mims (24:05). Rattler sounds like he's matured quite a bit since he arrived in Norman (28:20). If you're going to criticize any part of OU from Saturday it would be the running game (31:45). Seth McGowan looked great Saturday, while Marcus Major left a lot to be desired (39:45). We go over all the offensive players who were not available to play Saturday (50:20). The guys talk about the Nebraska game from 2008, which makes Lee feel like one of those jerks who only talks about old football seasons (54:20). The OU defense looked more than ready to hit somebody else (58:50). David Ugwoegbu looked like he ate CeeDee Lamb (1:05:20). Lincoln Riley liked what he saw from Reggie Grimes and we definitely have to credit DTY for the way he played (1:08:30). We go over all the defensive players who missed the game, plus two of OU's important specialists (1:10:30). We think we know a little more now about the three players who are suspended and a better idea of when they'll be back. We think (1:18:45). Lincoln Riley provided a brief update on transfer Chris Murray, which Grant has been waiting for (1:25:35). Turns out the NCAA has a uniform standard when it comes to Covid-19 contact tracing. This whole thing could be a major issue this fall (1:30:45). Do the current guidelines incentivize players to get Covid-19? (1:37:20). We lament that Covid-19 in college football has seemingly been politicized (1:44:00). The Big Ten is coming back in late October. Grant thinks this entire story has been incredibly entertaining and we try to get to the bottom of it (1:49:30). We agree that the Big Ten should admit they made a mistake, and at the same time the other conferences can show grace by allowing the Big Ten back in (2:01:35). The Big Ten's statement Wednesday put health at the forefront of its decision, which really bugs us (2:06:35). Lee asks the Big Ten 'what has changed in the last month that led you to make this decision?' (2:12:50). Grant leaves us with a heartfelt thought on why college football is important and why it means so much to him (2:16:00). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Lee provides some shocking numbers that may make you rethink what you've seen so far from OU's defense. Then Grant joins to debate whether or not what we've seen from the Sooners' defense has been a mirage (4:45). Lee got a chance to ask Alex Grinch about OU's cornerbacks playing almost every single play up near the line of scrimmage so far this season (12:30). As for the safety position, Lee talked with Patrick Fields a bit Monday. You could tell Fields was disappointed with some plays vs UCLA and he'll use the film to get better (18:25). Depth at the safety positions needs to continue to develop. We also wonder what's happened to Robert Barnes (22:50)? Alex Grinch is a "TFL freak" (29:20). We've got a TJ Pledger injury update and Grant thinks it's pretty clear Marcus Major is a player they're looking to redshirt (30:35). Lee asked Lincoln Riley about what he's seen from the H-Back position (32:55). Upon review, yes the offensive line did well against UCLA (35:15). OU hasn't really played anybody yet this year -- at least according to a couple of strength of schedule rankings that are out there. Is this a concern (37:55)? The guys play a haphazard game where Lee gives his take on a team, and Grant tells him if he's right or wrong. We're not sure if it's good or not (43:30). Finally we make picks on Utah-USC, Michigan-Wisconsin, Auburn-A&M, OSU-Texas, and Notre Dame-Georgia (59:40). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

We take a look at the Oklahoma Sooners so far through spring practice, including the emergence of Brendan “Bookie” Radley-Hiles (2:00), Justin Broiles (6:45) and who else could start in the secondary for OU this season. We also go in depth on Oklahoma’s quarterback battle (9:55) and what Kyler Murray’s future in minor league baseball could look like (13:10). From there, we dive into the latest recruiting news, including Isaiah Spiller’s de-commitment (16:40) and Oklahoma’s continued pursuit of in-state star Marcus Major (18:45). With the spring game coming up this week, we also talked about recruits who are planning to visit for the game (24:30) and if any of those guys could be on commitment watch over the weekend (38:50). We close the show with a little bit of basketball recruiting news (48:50).
