West of Everest: An Oklahoma Football Podcast

In the opening take, Lee knew OU didn't have a great chance to beat LSU at the start -- and somehow now the Sooners' chances are even worse. Then Lee jumps into the news of LSU's starting running back getting hurt this week (5:50). Next, we toss it to Grant who gives his thoughts on the news that three players will be suspended for the Peach Bowl. Grant also thinks losing Clyde Edwards-Helaire would be a massive blow for LSU (7:35). Lee responds to Grant's comments. Touching on Kenneth Murray's role in the Peach Bowl and the importance of Edwards-Helaire in LSU's offense (19:10). There are reports out there that Delarrin Turner-Yell will miss the Peach Bowl (22:20). Lee gives some brief National Signing Day thoughts on Jase McClellan and he also has minor thoughts on OU's recruiting class (24:35). Meanwhile, Grant has more extensive thoughts on the offensive players OU signed in the Class of 2020 (28:00). With Ronnie Perkins out for the Peach Bowl, who's going to play DE against LSU (34:10)? Lee asked Jalen Hurts and Creed Humphrey some questions Wednesday... and it didn't really go anywhere (38:20). Let's go back to National Signing Day for Grant's take on the defensive players OU signed Wednesday (40:50). Lee's watched the LSU-Florida game and he begins with how the Florida defense attacked LSU, and what the Sooners can take away from the Gators' performance (48:30)? Florida gave OU a solid amount of ideas on how to attack LSU's defense. Lee goes through the x's and o's of each clever concept he saw (58:00).

In the opening take, Lee wants to make sure everybody is on the same page before we begin this episode of "West of Everest". Then Grant joins to give his thoughts on some of the rumors and gossip that have gone around message boards and OU websites of the past 48 hours (4:55). Grant didn't pay attention to any of the Heisman stuff this weekend because the show is just boring at this point and there wasn't much of a reason to watch if you like OU football (14:35). Should we care that some people didn't vote Joe Burrow for the Heisman? And one guy actually gave Tua a First Place vote (18:30). Chase Young got the second most 1st place votes and Lee can't in good conscious think he's the best player in college football (21:00). The guys start breaking down September's LSU-Texas game, beginning with asking the question: how much can we really take from this game since it was so long ago (23:50)? LSU's defense is playing much better now, but what did the Tigers do against Texas back then (26:40)? It looks like LSU's defensive strength is its secondary (29:45). Lee discovered some spots in LSU's defense that OU could attack. Grant also has some ideas (32:00). What concerns you the most about OU's offense going up against LSU's defense -- based on what we've seen from the LSU-Texas tape (39:45). Grant told us last time that LSU doesn't motion and move a lot pre-snap. Is that what we saw against Texas (44:40)? Joe Burrow was fantastic against Texas. Grant gets super angry because he thinks it's crazy that Burrow has gotten so much better compared to 2018 (48:15). LSU's offense never huddles, a lot of tempo, and LSU is almost exclusively in 11 personnel (57:40). LSU loved 3x1 sets against Texas. Lee was searching for tendencies, but LSU does a great job of making different plays all look the same based on formation (1:02:20). It looks like Burrow will try to attack perceived weaknesses in coverage. Will OU be able to disguise its looks (1:07:20)? We're all done with LSU talk, so Grant wants to talk about Baker Mayfield's 2019 season. If you want to hear us talk about Mayfield and the Browns for a while, this part is for you (1:16:15). Naturally the discussion shifts to Lamar Jackson. Will we be wrong about him in the long run (1:32:30)?

No opening take today because the guys spent all their time late Saturday and early Sunday rewatching OU's second win over Baylor this season. Lee takes a bow for his thoughts on the Playoff Rankings over the past 4-5 weeks. And the guys briefly talk about how this is already a successful season for the Sooners (3:15). Punch up the OU-Baylor game and follow along as we go through the whole game in detail (9:25). Our first mention of Kenneth Murray, who played the best game of his OU career (14:00). CeeDee Lamb is back (15:00). The one and only time we talk about Parnell Motley (17:50). A play that worked early in the game for Baylor's offense is destroyed later by Pat Fields (23:30). After Charlie Brewer knocked Bookie out of the game briefly, Kenneth Murray blows up a Brewer run (28:00). Things have been going well up to this point... and then OU turns the ball over for the first time (30:10). Another horrible turnover set up Baylor for what would be the Bears first TD of the game (38:20). Lee rants about the blown coverage on Baylor's TD that tied the game at 10 (41:05). We dive into the 2nd half. OU's defense plays well with the exception of a couple of horrible plays that Lee rants on again, Jalen Hurts makes his best throw of the day, Reeves Mundschau had a great punt and we had OT in Arlington (48:55). A Baylor penalty helps out OU in overtime, Rhamondre Stevenson scores, and the defense dominates to win the game (1:20:15). "3-word reviews" (1:28:45), and some final thoughts about OU's upcoming game vs LSU (1:40:45).

In the opening take, Grant lays the case OU vs Utah. Then Lee jumps in to explain that he's not too concerned about CeeDee Lamb's body language (7:15). Riley talked a little bit about the GT Counter play that we all love (9:35). Lee plays audio from Alex Grinch as he explains what he's seen from his defense over the last few weeks (10:50). The All-Big 12 Awards came out Wednesday, and Grant thinks there were a bunch of questionable selections (15:55). The guys separately give their thoughts on the matchup between OU's offense vs Baylor's defense (24:00). Lee looks back at Alex Grinch's history to help his case that OU's defense should be prepared against Baylor's offense (32:55). Grant gives his take on OU's defense vs Baylor's offense (37:25). Grant tells you what he *wants* to see happen when OU plays Baylor in the Big 12 Title (42:00) followed by what Lee *wants* to see (44:35). Lee's starting to believe in this team again as he tells you what *will* happen Saturday in Arlington (47:05). Grant's not as optimistic as Lee, but he's still feeling good about what *will* happen vs Baylor (51:10). Finally, Grant has some further thoughts about the College Football Playoff committee and how he feels about the current ranking (53:25).
