The guys discuss OU's 37-17 loss at LSU to close the regular season at 6-6 (2-6). It does appear the Alabama game was indeed an outlier outcome as the Sooners reverted back to what they've been for most of 2024. Grant has some historical analytical stats that show where the program is now compared to the 90s. After much big picture discussion, the guys jump into the actual game and go through all the big moments (and bad moments) that led to OU losing at LSU. At least one listener disagrees with our thoughts on Brent Venables and Lee brings up one coach who may be the best case scenario comp to Venables if he's going to succeed at OU.

The Sooners proved us wrong in all the best ways by beating No. 7 Alabama 24-3 Saturday in Norman. The offensive gameplan was terrific and included a lot of creative designs in the run game. Xavier Robinson continued to look like the best running back on the team. Joe Jon Finley deserves a ton of credit for his gameplan and execution. OU's defense was fantastic against a great Alabama offense. That was the best defensive performance since when??

Oklahoma picked up its 5th win of the season beating Maine 59-14 Saturday. Lee talks about the offensive explosion, this new version of Jovantae Barnes, Jackson Arnold continued his solid play, and a big picture look at OU's defense that doesn't bode well for Brent Venables.

Definitely a tale of two halves in Oxford this weekend. OU went into halftime enjoying a 14-10 lead over one of the better teams in college football, but the Sooners came back down to earth in the final 30 minutes. What went right? What went wrong? Jovantae Barnes had his best game as a Sooner. Jackson Arnold played solid and does seem to have a lot of potential. This OU's best game running the ball this season. The offensive line can't pass block, but somehow they were able to run block pretty well.

One host is a little more fired up than expected, while the other host is apathetic towards OU's latest beatdown at the hands of Texas. One thing we can all agree on is the offense being awful. The Sooners are officially the worst offense in P4 football. The one thing we can't agree upon is the state of the defense and how well (or not well) it played Saturday at the Cotton Bowl. How is it possible at this point to defend anybody on the offensive staff? We read your "3-Word Reviews" and briefly look ahead to next week's game against South Carolina. | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

It's all about extremes at OU. For several years we get to watch elite offense paired with truly terrible defense, and now we get to witness high level defense paired with truly terrible offense. Were there signs a season ago that Jackson Arnold would look this bad? How much longer does Brent Venables have at OU? When will Seth Littrell be fired? Hey, Michael Hawkins helped the offense show some signs of life, but what does that mean?

It was much better this week as the Sooners withstood a second half surge from Tulane. OU's defense was really good, and outside of 2-3 drives Tulane did not do much of anything. That's a really good offense, so the Sooners' defense was up to the challenge in their first real test of the year. The offense was much better than last week, but still has a ways to go. Grant was encouraged by the performance more than Lee. The running back situation is still perplexing. Maybe at some point the Sooners will get some of their important injured players back?

If the first two games of the 2024 season are any indication, we should be preparing for a not very fun next three months of OU football. The guys go over the GOOD -- OU won the game, before spending almost the entire show on what was BAD -- which was pretty much all of it. The offense is terrible. Was Seth Littrell a bad hire? People are calling for Michael Hawkins to play. This team is undisciplined and was fortunate to escape Saturday with the victory. Brent Venables has a lot to account for as the Sooners welcome a really good Tulane team to Norman next week.

The guys are recording 15 minutes after OU beat Temple 51-3 to open the 2024 season. They spend the next 20 minutes or so going over the poor performance by the OU offense. A great start transitioned into a horror show for a significant part of the game (1:20). The defense forced 6 takeaways and did exactly what they should have done against a bad Temple team. Nothing really to complain about there, and the kicking game with Tyler Keltner did it's job as well (22:40). Okay, back to the offense being bad on 3rd down. We read your "3 Word Reviews" from the WoE Facebook page and Twitter/X (29:25). We learn that Jalil Farooq broke his foot and will miss the next 6-8 weeks. This is not a promising development. We read and react to some more postgame updates from Brent Venables' press conference (40:30). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

Grant was bored by the spring game while Lee explains why the spring game was pretty interesting to him (1:25). We get into the breakdown beginning with Jackson Arnold and his play (8:30). Lee wants to talk about Michael Hawkins because there was a spring narrative about him looking really good, yet we didn't see much evidence of that in the spring game (23:15). The offensive line with Jackson Arnold played really well. Overall we're encouraged by what we saw from the OL (25:35). Deion Burks was terrific, but no other pass catchers really stood out (33:20). Sawchuk, Hicks, and Franklin all looked good at running back. The room looks to be in better shape than last season. Have we seen the last of Jovantae Barnes in an OU uniform (43:30)? We switch over to the defense and begin with the defensive line. Lee liked a good amount of what he saw, while Grant is very skeptical of the interior part of the line. Can the Sooners pick up some of these big D-linemen in the portal (56:45)? Not much to say about the linebackers aside from Kobie McKinzie looked good. Grant is still high on Jaren Kanak. Was he at fault for the second Burks TD? Lee could not figure out what coverage OU was in on the two long TDs (1:08:00). Thoughts on the OU secondary. Lee thinks Dez Malone may be a starter at corner. Grant liked what he saw from RSJ, but overall the secondary was slightly disappointing (1:13:50). We read your "3 Word Reviews" from the WoE Facebook page (1:19:10). Final thoughts on who stood out on offense. Grant wants RPOs to be eliminated (1:23:15). Final thoughts on defensive standouts (1:29:50). The kicking game will continue to be a massive question mark. Are you interested in the Miami (OH) kicker in the portal? Plus we go over other final disappointing thoughts from the scrimmage (1:31:50). Shane Whitter and Justin Harrington recently entered the transfer portal (1:39:40). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

No opening take as the guys begin their look back at OU's 38-24 Alamo Bowl loss to Arizona (01:25). Let's start from the very beginning with OU's defense coming out in a 3-3-5 and almost immediately giving up a big pass play. The pass defense is still very much a concern, but credit to OU for shutting down Arizona's running game (03:30). Jackson Arnold's start was very underwhelming. There was a little good, but mostly bad as he threw a couple of interceptions (15:15). OU's offense started moving it on its 4th series which ended with a Gavin Sawchuk TD run (27:45). Kani Walker's interception didn't lead to anything because unfortunately OU turned the ball over immediately after in what was the start of a rough night for Jalil Farooq (30:20). It was good to see Sawchuk get out and run for 63 yards. This was the drive that ended with Nic Anderson's excellent TD catch (34:20). OU seemed to be figuring it out on defense. R Mason Thomas had a nice sack. The offense got a chance to score before the end of the first half but failed (40:05). OU's offense started the 2nd half with a bang. We saw some small parts of Arnold's game that we liked (47:40). We talk a little about Tawee Walker transferring to Wisconsin (51:20). Drake Stoops picked up a bunch of yards on 3rd down to extend OU's drive before the Sooners started to show signs of faltering in the red zone (53:40). This is the drive that changed everything. It started rough with Sawchuk tweaking his hamstring, and it ended with a flukey Arizona defensive TD. Arnold and the offense struggled the rest of the way, turning it over two more times, and that was the ballgame (1:00:50). Final stats, overall thoughts on the game and what it means (1:19:45). We read some of your "3 Word Reviews" (1:24:40). Lee gives his overall takeaways from Jackson Arnold's game, before Grant looks ahead to the offseason and would prefer not to drive away Farooq (1:31:30). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

We play an old Brent Venables soundbite that feels appropriate to open the show. Then the guys jump right into the news that OU is hiring Seth Littrell and Joe Jon Finey as Co-Offensive Coordinators (02:30). Jeff Lebby has left to become the head coach at Mississippi State (28:45). We read the "3 Word Reviews" from OU's 69-45 win over TCU, which gets us jumping around from topic to topic stemming from OU's regular season finale (49:00). Grant wants to rant about Oklahoma State beating BYU and playing in the Big 12 Title (1:34:00). We make our Conference Championship picks, which includes Lee amending his take on Iowa, plus even more Big Ten hate because why not (1:39:50)? We're annoyed by where OU's ranked and which bowl game they're likely to play in (2:00:00). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

The guys gather a few hours after OU beat BYU 31-24 in Provo. Lee's in a mood to complain, yet he's still happy the Sooners are 9-2. Grant's mostly happy the team won the game and still has a chance to reach 10 wins in the regular season. What was up with the defense (outside of the 3 takeaways)? This game was just more evidence that Oklahoma is still a ways away from where we want them to be. Lee was disappointed by Jackson Arnold's play, while Grant was encouraged by what he saw from JA. Gavin Sawchuk continued his strong play and Lee complains about the way the running back situation has been handled all season (again).

No opening take as the guys jump into reading the "3 Word Reviews" from OU's previous win over West Virginia. Topics include Dillon Gabriel and his future, Drake Stoops doing exactly what he should be doing given his situation, poor referees, and more (2:00)! We begrudgingly talk about this Big 12 tiebreaker story (22:15). The guys set the stage for OU's upcoming game at BYU. This is a bad football team, but Lee brings up reasons why OU should be focused. Grant provides a way he could see BYU having success against the Sooners (35:00). Is the Big 12 actually the 2nd best conference this season? Lee lays out his case. Grant doesn't fully buy in, but he can see the argument (50:10). We talk briefly about Jimbo Fisher getting fired (1:04:30). We talk about the week in the Big 12 (1:08:15). We make our weekly picks against the spread. Games include Louisville-Miami/Georgia-Tennessee/North Carolina-Clemson/Washington-Oregon State/Texas-Iowa State (1:16:15). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonTweets

The guys gather Sunday morning to recap OU's dominating 59-20 win over West Virginia. Dillon Gabriel brushed off an uneven start to account for 8 total touchdowns. It was great to see Gavin Sawchuk get the bulk of the carries and Drake Stoops continued his exceptional play from Bedlam. The defense was mostly terrific after the first WVU drive of the game. The Sooners took advantage of 6 consecutive defensive stops to build a 31-7 1st half lead. *NOTE* We forgot to read "3 Word Reviews", so we'll plan on going through those to open the next episode.

The guys gather Sunday morning to talk all about OU's 27-24 loss to OSU. We air it all out here -- plus Grant provides one of the best rants on this podcast in a long, long time.

It's not a fun one as the guys convene an hour after Oklahoma lost to Kansas 38-33 Saturday. Grant had been terrified of that game for the last couple of weeks and all of his fears came true. Lee laments two offensive tendencies that he's hated this season that both reared its ugly head in this game. Tawee Walker was terrific. Grant didn't like the way the defensive line played. OU killed themselves with penalties. The OU passing game was non-existent in poor weather. Danny Stutsman missed the entire 2nd half, but Kip Lewis filled in admirably.

The guys convene a day after OU squeaked out a 31-29 win over UCF. While Lee took in the game in Norman, Grant's gameday experience was awful in Minnesota. The guys choose to take a "glass half full" approach to what could have been a crushing loss. Credit to the Sooners' defense for playing well most of the time -- especially at the beginning. OU's offense was inconsistent and failed to help out the defense in the 1st quarter. Nic Anderson continues to catch touchdowns, while the OU running game finally got things going in the 4th quarter. The kicking game continues to struggle for the Sooners, while the punting was much better.

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.

The guys gather Sunday morning to talk about OU's dominant 66-17 win over Tulsa. Dillon Gabriel was terrific yet again. OU's wide receivers look excellent, meanwhile the running game leaves a lot to be desired. Peyton Bowen got the start at Cheetah and the defense played awesome aside from 3 Tulsa drives.

The guys recap what was an uneven performance by the Sooners in their 28-11 Week 2 win over SMU. Was the offense bad vs. SMU? What's going on with the running backs situation? The explosive passing game was non-existent. We both do not like the Jackson Arnold package. Did we learn anything new about Andrel Anthony? Hey! How about that TD catch by Jalil Farooq (1:00)!? Over to the defense, which played well for the most part. The Sooners held SMU to 4 of 16 on 3rd down and allowed just 4.6 yard/play. Danny Stutsman was all over the field and Kip Lewis continues to emerge. We praise OU for staying disciplined all night. There were some highlights by the secondary including big plays by Kani Walker and Peyton Bowen. Despite sacks and TFLs being down, the defense seems better (20:20).

OU opened the season with an impressive 73-0 win over Arkansas State. Lee says he's incredibly pleased with the way the Sooners played. Dillon Gabriel played the best game of his career, and it was nice to see an extended appearance from Jackson Arnold (1:25). The OU pass catchers showed a lot of promise (9:00). Tawee Walker looked like OU's best running back on a day when that group was overall just fine (12:50). Gavin Freeman's punt return TD was fantastic and we hope that leads to more impressive special teams plays (19:40). Grant wants to praise a couple of the young TEs for some nice plays, and Lee has some positive words for Jeff Lebby (22:50). The defense pitched a shutout in what was a steady, albeit non-flashy performance (26:30). We read your "3 Word Reviews" (36:35).

The guys are back at the mics to discuss OU's close Cheez-It Bowl loss to Florida State. They open the show by briefly discussing the road-like atmosphere for the Sooners in Orlando, while praising the bowl game for making a second-tier bowl feel pretty important (:40). OU should have won despite being 10-point underdogs. The game sure seemed to play out similar to a lot of other OU losses this season. Grant liked the way OU's offensive line played despite missing multiple starters (3:05). Let's talk about the game, beginning with C.J. Coldon's missed opportunity on the game's first series (12:00). Dillon Gabriel was terrific on OU's first offensive series that gave the Sooners an early 7-3 lead (14:30). Kudos to the OU defensive line stopping FSU on 3rd-1 and 4th-1 in the 1st Quarter. Grant says Jeffery Johnson had maybe his best game of the season. The defense played well for the majority of the game, even though FSU WR Johnny Wilson torched the Sooners (18:40). The guys were impressed with FSU QB Jordan Travis. Why didn't they run him more (23:40)? Danny Stutsman looked really good and fast when he chased down Travis for a sack (26:05). Back to discussing the game. OU's offense took a 14-3 after DG scored on a clever zone read design (28:20). We jump ahead to Marvin Mims' first awesome sideline catch, which was followed up by a Gavin Sawchuck TD run called back due to penalty. This was a huge sequence in the game (30:50). Grant's number 1 takeaway from the Cheez-It Bowl is that Sawchuck is a star in the making. Where has he been all year? Lee's not as high on Jovantae Barnes as everybody else (33:45)? Brent Venables told his team to not "play to the scoreboard" against FSU. Lee can't imagine saying that to a team as a coach, while Grant doesn't think it's a big deal (41:50). Grant says the difference in the bowl game was the Sawchuck fumble and the Savion Byrd holding penalty. Grant is ultimately encouraged by what he saw from OU vs. FSU (44:40). Lee's got more criticism for Venables. It was unacceptable to call timeout on defense in the 2nd half of a one-score game. OU cost itself :22 seconds at the end of the game. Poor game management yet again (46:45). Grant reminds us that the current coaching staff looks to be elite at recruiting and Grant doeesn't think people who thought OU would get blown out should be able to criticize Venables today (50:25). Lee lays out the two (maybe three) different types of OU fans that exist right now. Plus more Gavin Sawchuck and Jovantae Barnes talk (54:00). We cover a bunch extra Cheez-It Bowl topics and beyond as we check in on your "3-Word Reviews" from the WoE Facebook page and Twitter (59:20). One listener reminds us that Texas still sucks. Lee gives a brief update on what to expect from the show coming up in the offseason. Grant brings up Trace Ford transferring to OU (1:27:30). We wrap things up by talking about who we think will win the National Championship (1:32:00). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

It was Lee's first OU game as a "fan" since 2012 -- and boy was that a weird Bedlam. An incredible 1st Qtr gave way to a puzzling and frustrating final 3 Qtrs for the offense.

For the first time in the podcast's history, Lee & Grant sat down to record the show about 90 minutes after OU lost to WVU 23-20. Grant says the Mountaineers were begging to lose that game, but OU failed time and time again to put them away. For the first time this year, Lee's questioning whether the Sooners will make a bowl game (1:40). OU was awful on 3rd down, WVU was fantastic on 4th down, Eric Gray was the best player on the field, and the Sooners found a way to leave 18 points on the field in the first half. What's going on with Marvin Mims? Who's to blame for the OPI -- Theo Wease or Brayden Willis? (7:20). Is the Wildcat not in the playbook anymore (15:40)? One of the two bright spots for OU's offense came in the first half when the Sooners marched 96 yards to take a 10-0 lead. But all the momentum was wiped away after WVU answered with a quick TD of their own (20:00). WVU's defense was showing OU looks that could have been exploited in the passing game, but the Sooners didn't take them. Penalties and missed opportunities led to OU trailing 13-12 in the 3rd qtr (23:00). The offense had its second highlight of the afternoon going 59 yards to score and take a 20-13 lead. At this point it seemed like the Sooners maybe had righted the ship -- but then OU allowed WVU to convert on a fake punt and all hell broke loose. The refs picked up a flag that really hurt OU (26:20). Of course OU went 3 & out after WVU tied the game at 20. Jalil Farooq is OU's best WR right now (35:40). After the defense stepped up and got a stop, OU kept the ball on the ground exclusively. Grant says OU's tempo cost them. We question Venables' decision to kick a FG on 4th & short (37:40). WVU used up the final 6:24 to go down and kick a GW FG. Why didn't OU let WVU score with under a minute to go (43:00)? Lee says it's unacceptable for OU to be 5-5. Brent Venables is not going to get fired, but his seat is hot (47:40). OU leads the Big 12 in rushing and the offensive line looked to play pretty well. But it's crazy that best case scenario right now is 7-5 in the regular season. Lee reads some postgame quotes from Venables, including one on kicking a FG late (52:30).

The Sooners got a much needed win Saturday over Kansas. Grant had a lot of fun watching OU play and the guys open the show talking about the return of Dillon Gabriel, and how the win over KU felt all too familiar (1:00). Eric Gray was terrific Saturday. Have we seen the end of Marcus Major (18:45)? Marvin Mims got 16 targets. Keep them coming. Brayden Willis continues to have his best season at OU. Welcome back Theo Wease (23:15). Lee applauds the offense for burning a lot of clock in the 4th qtr to help put the game away (31:15). Grant is more positive about the defense, while Lee saw some good things but ultimately was not impressed (33:25). We read your "3-Word Reviews" which includes comments on the "Unity" uniforms, Robert Spears-Jennings getting some meaningful snaps, C.J.

In the opening take, Lee regrets a bet he didn't make. Then Grant joins to briefly talk Alabama-Cincinnati as that game kicks off during this recording. Total crossfire on how they think the game will go. Then we get into how cool it was to see Bob Stoops coaching in the Alamo Bowl. Was that the most prepared OU has looked for a game all year? OU ran the ball well and Cale Gundy called a heck of a game (10:30). Kennedy Brooks had a great game. What kind of NFL career will he have? Marvin Mims caught a long TD, Drake Stoops caught a TD and had a cool moment with his dad (21:35). Mario Williams had a TD taken off the board, Eric Gray was very involved. We take this time to rip on Lincoln Riley (29:30). Grant says Caleb Williams was very good and there were some areas that he clearly worked on the last month. Jalil Farooq looked pretty darn good and we take more time to rip Lincoln Riley by talking about Charleston Rambo at Miami (35:40). Grant doesn't think the defense played well at all. We hit on some of the players who stood out. Ultimately we are happy the defense will get a total overhaul under Brent Venables (42:15). Okay let's talk Caleb Williams and his future. Is he gonna leave? Grant's super concerned. Lee's not too worried. They have a spirited discussion (51:10). We share your "3 Word Reviews" from Twitter and Facebook. Topics include players committing to schools based off of coaches vs. the actual school, Stoops handing off his visor to Venables, OU getting revenge on Oregon, Taco Bell, no penalties for players transferring, and wrapping up a super weird OU season (1:20:00). Final thoughts on bowl season so far, Grant's super fired up about mayonnaise, and when our next podcast episode will be (1:40:00). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Lee explains why he thought that was OU's best defensive game of the season. Then Grant joins as we jump in to talking about Jalen Redmond's fumble return TD. That leads into a discussion about OU's great game on defense (3:40). It was great to see OU's defense finish plays in the backfield. The D-Line was fantastic led by Nik Bonitto and company (16:45). Perrion Winfrey's monster hit on Brock Purdy (21:15). The guys have very different opinions on the Iowa State catch/no catch that led to ISU's first touchdown of the day. Grant doesn't think the rules make sense, Lee thinks the rules are pretty easy to understand (23:00). We dive into "3 Word Reviews" where we get into the offense playing poorly. A lot of Lincoln Riley criticism coming out of this game. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an easy "fix" (33:00). Lee didn't like that OU called timout on Iowa State's final series with the clock running and the Cyclones facing 4th down. Also, Iowa State totally killed its own drive by calling a bizarre trick play that backfired (47:20). OU still has a good chance to make the Playoff. We go through some quick playoff scenarios. Lee calls out a random podcast he listened to that had some bad college football takes (53:20). More thoughts on Riley and the struggling offense along with a struggling Caleb Williams. A little early Bedlam talk. Did a simple offseason change make OSU's defense elite (1:01:00)? We finish up "3 Word Reviews" and have a stupid debate about how to pronounce the word "Redux". Grant explains one of his biggest disappointments from this OU season (1:09:40). Dan Patrick said this week the Playoff could be expanded as early as next year but other news outlets have said that's not true. We talk expanded playoff and complain about how long it's taking (1:16:40). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Lee highlights 5 separate plays that soured what turned out to be a pretty good OU defensive performance. Then Grant joins to react to that ugly Sooners loss at Baylor. Does OU have a problem playing well when they have more than one week to prepare? Does Lincoln Riley have a problem making in game adjustments (3:45)? Do we all need to pump the brakes on Caleb Williams (13:30)? More talk about the OU defense. Lee keeps trying to figure out if OU ever is supposed to have a guy set the edge (16:30)? Grant says Gerry Bohanon was awful on Saturday and Lee points out a play that OU could have had an easy INT, but instead Baylor picked up a first down (21:40). Grant makes sure to point out again that OU's defense played well enough to win and the offense did not hold up its end of the bargain. Brian Asamoah had maybe the best game of his career (29:30). Grant is fired up about the decision to take Caleb Williams out of the game and insert Spencer Rattler. Lee tries to get into Riley's head. That's got to be it for Rattler at OU, right (34:00)? Grant wanted OU's offense to space it out more against that Baylor defense (44:30). Over to "3 Word Reviews" where we talk about the end of the game. Grant is not happy with Lincoln Riley's postgame comments. This is a fired up Grant podcast (48:15). More "3 Word Reviews" lead to discussions about OU losing a game super late in the season for the first time in a long time. What's going on inside that locker room? Lee says this team looks to have an entitlement problem (52:15). Iowa State's been giving up a lot of points lately, but you know the Cyclones are going to be prepared to play OU(58:50). Why is tackling such a problem? Even if OU figured it out, they're not winning the National Championship this year anyway right (1:01:45)? More grab bag thoughts on OU-Baylor (1:08:15). We look big picture and Grant asks if Riley makes any kind of coaching move/change in the offseason (1:11:30)? Finally we talk about Texas losing to Kansas. This leads to a stupid debate about Texas and whether you should invest much time in caring about what they do (1:18:00). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

We talked about an EIGHTH Cougar win in a row! This one featured 2 return TDs (by the losing team) and a 97 yard TD run. So, it was your typical, ho-hum affair when UH and USF took to the gridiron last Saturday night. But we figured we'd find a way to talk about the game, read your 4 Word Reviews, and also take a look around the country towards the week 10 CFB slate.

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

In the opening take, Lee crunched the numbers and the current Oklahoma defense is statiscally worse than what we saw from the Sooners in 2018. Then Grant joins to go over all of your "3 Word Reviews" from that horrible Kansas game. Topics include Caleb Williams' steal play, one of the best moments in sports history, being annoyed by OU overlooking KU, one listener has lots of questions for Lincoln Riley, people not understanding why OU fans are frustrated with this 8-0 start, Grant hating LSU, congratulating fans for going to Lawrence, a wide open Heisman race, why doesn't Howard Schnellenberger get as much criticism from fans as John Blake?, OU making the Playoff only to get blown out, and does this miserable OU season mean that something amazing is ahead of us (5:45). Lee did a deep dive into where OU's defense stands statistically. How did Alex Grinch's 3rd year at Wazzu compare to his 3rd season here at OU (29:40)? Grant wants Alex Grinch to pick a set lineup and reduce the amount of rotations. Jalen Redmond is expected to be available this week. The numbers say his return could be huge for OU's defense (42:30). Lee was shocked to hear that Lincoln Riley thought the OU defense was "close" after reviewing the KU film. Lee brings up Teddy Lehman's thoughts on OU's defense from his recent podcast (48:50). Lee asked Alex Grinch if the defensive errors are fixable even though there's not much time left in the season? Grant wants to see the secondary play more physical and shed blocks better (59:20). Not a lot on Texas Tech this week. We're both confident that the Red Raiders will attempt a lot of passes and probably move the ball and score points. Grant is curious to see which Texas Tech defense shows up? We also try to figure out why this OU team doesn't seem to remember their losses from last season? Who in their right mind would lay 19.5 points with this OU team (1:13:15)? We go around the Big 12 where we see a fishy line in Morgantown, who's the 2nd worst team in the Big 12?, did we give up on Utah too soon?, will TCU-K-State be a shootout? (1:33:00). Grant went 4-1 last week as we make our weekly picks. Michigan-Michigan State/Iowa-Wisconsin/Texas-Baylor/Kentucky-Mississippi State/Penn State-Ohio State. At the end, Lee wishes we could spread football out more throughout the year (1:37:10). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

No opening take today, but the guys take an unnecessary swipe at a restaurant before jumping into Caleb Williams and his awesome abilities (2:00). Quick detour to lament the defense. It all started getting bad after Max Duggan scrambled for a 1st down and then scored 2 plays later. Alex Grinch continues to tell us that he's gotta coach it better and the guys have to perform (9:50). When can we hope some injured Sooners come back? They're going to need to be as healthy as possible for the stretch run (19:50). Back to Caleb Williams. Is it crazy to ask if he's the best player in the country? OU had a bunch of explosive plays and got contributions from a lot of players (24:25). We read your "3 Word Reviews". Should Williams have won the starting job out of fall camp? More on the poor defense, Jadon Haselwood's big game (35:35). Does this 7-0 start feel like OU's 7-0 start in 2019? Bryson Washington made a great special teams play. Billy Bowman was playing corner, OU covered a big spread finally, and should Caleb Williams be in the Heisman conversation (46:15)? Does Joshua Eaton have some upside? More on Billy Bowman, the defense needs to tackle better, and we wrap things up by talking about DaShaun White fumbling the ball out of the back of the end zone and Danny Stutsman being funny on Twitter (51:00). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

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

The University of Houston was officially extended membership to the Big 12 conference on Friday morning. Woah! We talk about what it means in the big and little picture, some of how we got here and things we're most excited about with this conference switch. And, we had a football game: specifically an emphatic and comprehensive 44-7 win over the Rice Owls in the 2021 edition of the Bayou Bucket game. We go through the highlights, what the win means and read your 4 Word Reviews of another victory vs the Owls. PLUS, a crazy week 2 in college foootball

The Cougars played arguably their best half of the 2019 season in the first 2 quarters last Saturday in Orlando, yet all good things (at least in this 2019 season) must come to an end and our favorite team dropped another tough conference game. We recap the game & your 4 Word Reviews of Saturday's contest. Cougar women's basketball starts this week and we talk an in-depth look at the 2019-20 Cougar lady hoopers and what they could be after back to back WNIT appearances. We also talked the proverbial curtain drawing on a historic season for Soccer, Volleyball holding serve (I know, wrong sport's serve) with a 1-1 week, Cross Country finishing their season, Men's Golf winning a tournament and somehow even more Cougar sports...

In the opening take, Lee presents two different questions you've got to ask yourself about this Sooners' defense. Then Grant joins to provide his rebuttal to Lee's opening take (8:35). Parnell Motley didn't play as well Saturday as he's played previously this season and Lee's concerned about his inability to catch the football (19:55). Did the OU safeties play their best game of the year? And Brian Asamoah flashed Saturday (24:10). Lee highlights what he thought was the best defensive moment vs Kansas (29:15). Trejan Bridges looks like he's back at wide receiver, and the guys were shocked to see Robert Barnes playing cornerback** but Lee is wrong and he'll have to admit his failure on the next episode** (32:20). No Adrian Ealy, no Erik Swenson... Grant's worried about the health of the OU offensive line (34:45). Lincoln Riley expects Kennedy Brooks to play against Texas and we talk about Rhamondre Stevenson's great game vs KU. Plus, these OU running backs have not been gettting a lot of work so far this year (39:55). Dissecting Jalen Hurts' performance vs Kansas plus KU's ability to make things difficult at times on OU's run game (44:25). CeeDee Lamb is an elite player and we want to praise him yet again before we try to figure out if there's anything OU can do about all these penalties (48:00)? TJ Pledger returned and he looked pretty good in limited action (54:50). Lee loved how Riley took a lot of the blame for the offensive problems (55:40). It looks like three wide receivers have been established as "go to" guys and we briefly touch on the H-Backs (57:50). We finish up with all of your "3-Word Reviews", talk about that toilet flushing during Riley's postgame press conference, and Grant's got some early thoughts on Texas (1:00:40). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Grant tells us why Saturday's win over UCLA was the Sooners' best game of the year. Then Lee joins to hear Grant gloat about his college football gambling picks from this weekend (5:50). We toss it over to Lincoln Riley to give us his thoughts on OU's win plus we compare Jalen Hurts and Sam Ehlinger when it comes to running the ball (8:00). Did that game play out the way we thought it would for the Oklahoma defense (13:20)? OU's defensive front had a great game and we're obviously pumped for Jalen Redmond's progression (18:20). Alex Grinch is showing us that he has confidence in a lot of players and we're seeing signs that OU's depth in the first two levels of the defense is much better than we originally thought(23:00). Moving to the secondary where the depth doesn't look as strong -- outside of cornerback. Covering the TE proved to be difficult for the Sooners and it wasn't a good look for the safeties (29:05). Tre Brown gets his first career INT and the defense forces two more turnovers (35:35). We've got to talk about the UCLA chunk plays that were horrific callbacks to the Texas game at the Cotton Bowl last year (38:10). Lincoln Riley was pleased with the play of the offensive line -- and so were we (42:10). Lee says Saturday was Jalen Hurts' best game as a Sooner, and there was one particular play that showed he's developing as a QB and getting more and more comfortable in this offense (47:00). For the first time this year, Lee brings back "Film Time w/Lee" to break down CeeDee Lamb's touchdown catch (51:10). Time to touch on the running backs and the rest of the talented wide receivers (56:35). We finish up with "3-Word Reviews" as we mix in some random Big 12 talk as well. It's good stuff (59:35). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

Welcome to Infendo Radio! On this week's show we have an Infendo Top 5 all about our favorite Switch games! After that, Eugene hosts a round of 3 Word Reviews, and we talk about the games we have been playing in Change the System!

In the opening take, Lee congratulates Alabama on a job well done (sort of). Then Grant joins to discuss his feelings after OU's Orange Bowl loss (5:30). OU's slow start was certainly not expected (7:20). Lee thinks you're an idiot if you second guessed Lincoln Riley's decsion to defer and he's annoyed by other Twitter takes (10:00). Marquise Brown had a horrible night and we feel terrible for him (13:00). Alabama's offense was able to do whatever it wanted (14:35) and Tua Tagovailoa was perfectly fine and played awesome (16:15). The guys argue over what a catch is and it's probably boring podcasting (18:25). As soon as we saw Tua was 100 percent was the game over (21:00)? OU's defense got one stop all night when it absolutely needed to and that led to Charleston Rambo's great TD (23:30). Kyler Murray willed this team back, but his shaky start ultimately cost him (26:40). CeeDee Lamb was fantastic, and we talk more about Marquise Brown (27:50). Grant says this game will allow him to enjoy college football more in the future, plus more on OU's defensive woes (33:10). Lincoln Riley talked about a time table on a defensive coordinator (37:25). Lee's not a fan of the "we didn't give up" and the "great season guys!" mentality by the fan base, but comments from Grant and Kyler Murray softened his stance on this (39:55). Did OU's Big 12 experience this year actually help them come back and make the Orange Bowl a game (45:20)? This is the best Alabama team Grant has seen (46:50). It sure would have been nice to recover one of those onside kicks (47:50) but it probably didn't matter because Bama's offense was too good (49:45). Let's give it up for Kennedy Brooks because he's a great RB (52:10). For the final time this season we do "3 Word Reviews" and the final review is the best of the year (55:00). Lee rants about "SEC! SEC! SEC!" guy, much to Grant's chagrin (1:10:15). We both don't have much interest in watching anymore college football this year (1:21:45). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Lee tries to figure out if the College Football Playoff committee got this whole thing right. Then a fired up Grant joins to briefly talk about the final CFP rankings and the show that led up to the rankings reveal (5:30). The guys jump into OU's win over Texas beginning with Tre Norwood's start at safety and Bookie's relegation to the bench (14:00). Texas seems to have perfected the "draw pass interference" offense (23:00). Great complementary football was played in the 2nd quarter (27:00). After OU got its 2 TD lead in the 2nd half, Texas was able to rally back for the tie. Parnell Motley has had better games (31:40). Kyler Murray made a TREMENDOUS play on 3rd down in the 3rd quarter, and we dissect some more poor 3rd quarter defense (36:15). Grant says OU's offense didn't have its best stuff on Saturday (42:20). Things went from awesome to disastrous to awesome in the span of about 3 plays when Tre Brown sacked Ehlinger for the safety (45:00). OU struggled to run the football against Texas, but Kyler Murray and the offense powered through and put together a fantastic drive to put the game away in the 4th quarter (51:30). Grant explains why this may be one of his favorite OU football teams ever (57:20). Kyler Murray should win the Heisman Trophy and honestly it shouldn't be a close vote after Saturday (58:50). Is Marquise Brown going to be available for the Playoff (1:04:20). Time for "3 Word Reviews" (1:06:30). Grant thought the SEC Championship was an awesome game (1:13:00). The CFP needs to be expanded and Lee doesn't want just 8 teams -- he wants 24 teams in the playoffs (1:19:45). The guys dismember the two most common arguments AGAINST playoff expansion (1:26:00). The SEC has an unfair advantage right now in the current system (1:30:30). Grant makes some great points (1:33:00) and then Lee gets more fired up than he's ever been because he doesn't think the people arguing against expansion really like football as much as they say they do(1:34:30). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Lee explains there was never a doubt that OU was going to beat West Virginia Friday night. Then Grant joins to randomly get excited about Minnesota Golden Gopher football and also deflect from the fact he picked against OU to win (4:05). For the first time in weeks we begin the show with the OU offense after the Sooners performed at an elite level once again (6:35). Lincoln Riley put the ball in Kyler's hands on 4th down and the game on the line deep in the 4th quarter, and the guys argue over the one Austin Seibert punt of the night (9:10). OU's offense kept their composure all night and came up with big play after big play (15:45). Marquise Brown was awesome against WVU and Lee thinks this game felt different than usual for the OU offense (19:30). Moving over to the defense where Grant thought that unit played one of its best games in weeks and the cornerbacks stood out (32:30). OU's going to need to find a way to improve pass coverage in the middle of the field and it was puzzling to see Caleb Kelly out there once on 3rd & 18 (39:15). There were a handful of guys who played really well including many on the defensive line (44:40). We get to the poor safety play including Bookie's rough game, although there were some positive takeaways (47:10). Although OU gave up more than 700 yards we don't feel as badly about this performance as other recent games (52:00). Is it possible that we're being too hard on the OU defense? And we talk about Michigan's defense if it played in the Big 12 (54:10). We get to your "3 Word Reviews" (59:20). A Texas rematch is up next and Lee's already watched back some of the last OU-Texas game (1:08:20). Tackling some listener questions/comments on OU's propensity for giving up big plays on 3rd & long, plus a look at the OU vs. Ohio State potential Playoff debate (1:12:50). Finally, if UGA beats Alabama in the SEC Championship does that mean both UGA and Bama makes the Playoff (1:23:30)? | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take, Lee shares some statistics that show just how horrible the OU defense has been playing lately. Then Grant joins to discuss the embarrassing performance against KU, one former player sounds off on Twitter, and Lincoln Riley knows his team didn't play well (5:20). We are not happy with the way Ruffin McNeill is approaching his position as the defensive coordinator (17:15). Neville Gallimore's absence seemed significant because OU had a ton of players out with injuries. Would those guys have missed the game if this was WVU instead of KU (26:40)? Can we trust that Lincoln Riley sees all the problems that we see with the defense (30:35)? OU needs style points to increase its playoff hopes, yet Lincoln Riley says all OU can do is just win (36:00). Is OU just destined to get smoked by West Virginia (42:00)? Let's talk briefly about the offense because it's still the best offense in the nation (47:10). Did Oklahoma State's DBs give OU a blueprint into shutting down David Sills (49:10)? Once again we got a lot of "3 Word Reviews" from listeners on Twitter and Facebook (54:30). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

In the opening take we hear from Lincoln Riley after Bedlam, then Lee admits his outlook on the rest of the season has changed. Following that, Grant joins and the guys immediately question OU's defensive game plan against OSU. It just did not make any sense (4:45). Grant makes a really good point about OU's continued incompetence in defensive game planning (12:55). We start looking ahead to the offseason and possible changes for the defensive coaching staff (16:25) before we go in on the terrible play by the secondary (18:00). For some reason OU felt like playing a base 4-3 with Caleb Kelly on the field predominantly was a good idea (20:45). Lee thinks people making Mike Stoops related jokes are losers (22:45). Quickly Lee praises Neville Gallimore's play in Bedlam (25:00). Then it gets serious as we wonder if Lincoln Riley will ultimately make the right decision when hiring a defensive coordinator (26:10)? It turns out the "keep it simple" approach by Ruffin McNeill has some drawbacks (30:55). WHY DOES OU KEEP DROPPING 8, IT DOESN'T WORK (35:40). OSU committing a false start actually helped them late in the game because OU's defense is so bad (45:55). The offense was awesome again and the terrible defense is forcing Kyler and co. to be perfect (47:20). Time for "3 Word Reviews" and we kick things off by talking about OSU's failed 2-point conversion attempt where the Sooners got very lucky (56:00). In a weird way, is it actually better to be a fan of OU compared to a fan of Alabama (1:15:50)? Virginia Tech got embarrassed by Pitt and more random college football talk to close things out (1:20:50). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

Justin Nation stops by, so you know we got plenty to talk about! Justin covers 10 games in his "5 Word Reviews" segment to start us off. Then it's Moonlighter, SNK 40th Anniversary Collection, Diablo 3, The Bug Butcher, and OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes.

In the opening take, Lee realized something Saturday evening while watching college football. Then Grant joins to talk about the biggest headlines from OU's win over Texas Tech and it seems that Grant is more optimistic than Lee (4:00). Kyler Murray's bizarre early interceptions put the defense in horrible spots (11:30). OU's defensive line was tremendous against Tech and Lee thinks the DL is now the strength of the Sooners' defense (14:30). Grant says nothing has changed for OU as far as the Sooners outlook on the season (20:00), but Lee is just disappointed in the defensive game plan (21:50). Grant wants to talk offense, and he's actually pretty critical about Lincoln Riley's play calling in the 2nd half (24:20). The offensive line and the running game continues to absolutely dominate (30:15). Back to another clever Tech TD play which leads into a discussion about the awful officiating (31:20). Cody Ford should have been ejected in the 1st quarter and we wonder if the Big 12 will levy some sort of punishment this week (36:15)? Going over all the positive offensive performances including Lee Morris and bad luck Grant Calcaterra (38:15). Was that CeeDee Lamb's worst game as a Sooner (41:15)? The only thing that stops OU's offense is Oklahoma (42:20). We got a lot of really good "3 Word Reviews" sent to us on Twitter and Facebook (48:15). Grant wants to give Lee crap about LSU's offense and they discuss other random college football topics including OU's path to the CFP, and are we on the way to yet another lame Alabama-Clemson National Title Game (1:00:30). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9
