  • Ep. 150 - Is Limiting Chuba the Key to a Bedlam Blowout?
    In the opening take, Lee thinks the Playoff committee sent a message to OU with their latest rankings. Then Lee dives into the matchup between OU's offense vs OSU's defense (5:20). Is Mike Gundy right that OU's offense is a triple option team disguised as a spread team (21:10)? Grant has some thoughts on Grant Calcaterra retiring from football (24:50). What can you expect to see from Dru Brown (30:05)? Everybody knows Chuba Hubbard is awesome, so OU's probably going to need to limit him (32:05). With Tylan Wallace out, Dillon Stoner has become the main focal point of OSU's throwing game (35:40). Lee heard something from Alex Grinch this week that he really liked (39:00). Lee tells you what he wants to see happen Saturday (43:30). Lee tells you what will happen with the help of a something he heard on a recent podcast (48:40). Time to get Grant's thoughts on Bedlam (59:00). Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

  • Ep. 149 - Sooners Barely Beat TCU... And That's Okay
    In the opening take, Lee talks about his own "24 hour rule" when it comes to Oklahoma football. Grant's not in today, but he left some audio clips for Lee to play, so we begin with Grant's general thoughts on OU's close win over TCU and Lee reacts to Grant's audio (5:20). Lee looks to a particular series in the 1st half that provided evidence that Hurts is still limited in this offense (16:10). Grant was disappointed to see the passing game largely shut down and (22:45). Meanwhile, the Sooners ran the football really well, it was just annoying they couldn't pay off a lot of drives with points (29:25). What was Lincoln Riley's thought process on that 4th-and-1 late in the 4th quarter (33:10)? Is Jalen Hurts everybody's main concern about the offense (35:30)? It's not quite "Film Time w/Lee"... but Lee did see one play where it was clear Riley was trying to scheme up an easy throw for Hurts, and it was a beauty (36:35). Grant kicks off the defensive discussion (39:40) before Lee fills in the blanks by shouting out some great plays in the early portion of the game (42:20). Lee continues with the defense by going over some of the lows (Duggan's success running) and the highs (sudden change defense) as the game led up to Brendan Radley-Hiles' fateful interception. Plus Caleb Kelly is back (45:35)! Grant's got some updated thoughts on OU's playoff chances. Lee also gives his immediate reaction to what the Playoff Committee may be thinking this week (51:00). Grant provides his final thoughts before signing off for today (56:50). Lee's being too loud, so we're going to blow through "3-word reviews" to end the show (1:00:45).

  • Ep. 148 - Sooners Search For Statement Win Over TCU
    In the opening take, Grant tells you why we're going to find out a lot about this OU team this Saturday against TCU. Then Lee joins to go over the news and notes of the week including CeeDee Lamb's status, the offensive line, and how the Patriots' 25-point come from behind Super Bowl victory is relevant (4:20). Lee was a bit irked by something Alex Grinch said Monday, plus Grinch all but confirms something that happened from the game (10:15). Lee asked Grinch if they practice playing with a "backs against the wall" mentality and we also got to speak with Delarrin Turner-Yell (19:25). Let's talk TCU's offense and it all begins with QB Max Duggan (27:00). The Frogs have a pair of solid running backs (29:55). Does Jalen Reagor wish he would have gone to OU instead (34:00)? OU gets a bit of a break because TCU's best cornerback will miss the first half Saturday (37:50). Grant doesn't think TCU's defense is as impressive as the Frogs have been in the past. Lee thinks TCU's defense looks pretty solid (40:15). Lee thinks OU could have some success using its RBs out of the backfield against TCU's defense (46:55) and both guys have seen that TCU's defense has had massive problems slowing the QB run game (49:50). Lee tells you all the things he wants to see happen Saturday (52:05) followed by what Grant wants to see in the game (55:35). Lee gives you a half-hearted game prediction (58:45) before Grant gives you a super positive prediction (1:00:20). Time for Grant to get super mad about the latest College Football Playoff rankings while Lee kind of shrugs his shoulders (1:01:30). We do a little Big 12 talk (1:23:10) before making our picks for the week (1:24:30).
