Gabe Ikard and Teddy Lehman continue their breakdown of Oklahoma football's roster by discussing the Sooners inside linebackers. With Owen Heinecke and Kip Lewis returning, this could be the best duo at inside linebacker that Brent Venables has had in his OU head coaching tenure. Michigan transfer Cole Sullivan and James Nesta will both have significant roles as well. In "Football Guys Talkin' Basketball," they recap the OKC Thunder's 108-90 win over the Los Angeles Lakers in game 1 of the Western Conference Semifinals of the NBA Playoffs. Ikard and Lehman give their "Winners and Losers of the Week": the American Football Coaches Association has thrown its support behind a 24 team College Football Playoff, the NCAA can't love that Brendan Sorsby has hired Jeffrey Kessler as his attorney, the New York Knicks DESTROYED the Philadelphia 76ers in game 1 and the Minnesota Timberwolves shocked the San Antonio Spurs in game 1 of what looks to be an awesome series.

Gabe Ikard and Teddy Lehman recap what they saw in OU football's spring game on April 18, 2026. The Sooners starting offense was impressive and showed off some of their new look running game. Lloyd Avant, DeZephen Walker and Jonathan Hatton all had nice days carrying the ball and John Mateer managed the game well as a passer. The Sooners starting defense was disruptive. Danny Okoye stood out along the line of scrimmage and the Sooners starting secondary put together a really solid performance. Most importantly, there were no injuries suffered in Oklahoma football's spring game. Ikard and Lehman also give their "Winners and Losers of the Weekend": OU women's gymnastics won their 8th national championship, OU softball dropped a game to Arkansas, the NHL Playoffs started in the best way possible with Ottawa Senators captain Brady Tkachuk and Carolina Hurricanes captain Jordan Staal fighting right after the opening puck drop & the Houston Rockets lost to LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers 107-98 with Kevin Durant missing the game with a knee injury.

Gabe Ikard and Teddy Lehman answer the following listener questions about OU football and what's going on during the Sooners spring practice:

4:15 @StarLordLegoGod- Who’ll be the best player for the team?

13:59 Corey Tipton- It’s been talked about how we’ve been practicing under-center stuff. Is this going to be more than a short yardage thing?

25:26 Cam Greenfield- The era of pre-2020 depth at every position seems like it is going to be exceedingly rare in this new era of college football. Which position group do you think has the most promising depth on the squad for this upcoming season?

30:35 vi. Chilly_J- I’ve heard some surprising WR names as early standouts this spring. But realistically how many receivers do you think will get significant snaps this season?

42:18 Willie Yandell- Which freshman is the most physically ready to step in if an injury happened from y’all observations from practice so far?

47:13 @Bigbigjon- How will the o line depth chart shake out? Is Nitta part of that equation? What about UK Dan?!

1:02:35 Tyler Neal- My breakout star on D is Reggie Powers — what say y’all about him, and who is yours?

1:11:55 OKC is getting a UFL team!
