  • Ep. 71 - Seriously, This OU Defense is Super Frustrating
    In the opening take, Lee tells you what he was thinking the second Parnell Motley intercepted that final pass in overtime. Then Grant joins to talk about that weird game against Army where the Sooners clearly showed that they weren't prepared to defend the triple option (3:00). Lee explains why OU could not get Army's offense off the field (9:10). Grant thinks OU went into this game just trying to "get by" and that's really frustrating (13:15). Lee doesn't think OU's players truly understood their assignments for defending the option, and Grant makes it clear that OU should have been more aggressive defensively (16:15). At one point it seemed like the Sooners had figured out how to stop Army -- and then they didn't (27:00). Mike Stoops certainly deserves criticism over this one -- and you could tell after the game he's expecting it (31:15). Could the Sooners' offense have made things easier for the OU defense (38:30)? Lee is beginning to have concerns about the running back group, while Grant is not worried about the offense at all (41:20). Lee's got some quick nitpicks on Kyler Murray's performance (47:05) and should we have concerns with the offensive line (49:00)? Grant lets Austin Seibert off the hook for missing that potential game-winning field goal (52:40). Listeners from Facebook provide their biggest takeaways from Saturday's game (58:20). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

  • Ep. 70 - Lee's Got Something to Say
    In the opening take, Grant puts into perspective the superb start by Kyler Murray. Then Lee joins to explain his strategy to covering OU football while also providing honest content to the listeners (7:45). Lee looks back at a pair of plays from the Iowa State game that he got wrong -- and also correct (17:15). Army and OU haven't played since the 60's and the last time the two teams played the Sooners used a revolutionary trick play to win the game (20:10). Getting into Army's option offense going against OU's defense (26:20). There's not much to say about OU's offense against Army's defense. The Sooners should be able to move the ball at will (38:40). The guys explain what they want to see from OU in this game with Army (44:45) and then make some predictions (48:10). Shifting to the biggest Big 12 games of the week. Is Kansas State bad, and what the heck do we make of TCU-Texas (51:30)? Time to "Cross 'em Off" as Grant and Lee eliminate a few teams from National Championship contention (1:01:40). Finally, the guys complain about their horrible gambling Week 3 and pick Week 4 games against the spread (1:08:00). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9

  • Ep. 69 - OU's Defense Has Us Questioning Everything. Again.
    In the opening take, Lee takes issue with a bizarre comment from Joel Klatt and recommends that people stop living in the moment so much. Then Grant joins to give the people what they want, which is a discussion about OU's defensive shortcomings against Iowa State on Saturday. Should we be thinking "here we go again" (8:20)? After a lot of negative stuff, Grant brings some perspective and adds positive spin to the defense (21:00). A particular play in the 3rd quarter really annoyed Lee because it was a blown coverage on what should have been a very simple read (27:25). Grant is not happy about drive extending penalties (33:00) and the guys give their weekly Bookie update (35:45). Things start to perk up when the guys switch to the offense. Kyler Murray played his best game as a college quarterback (38:15) and Lee goes over a handful of fantastic throws Kyler made during the contest (42:40). Grant really thinks the Sooners missed Rodney Anderson on Saturday (46:25). Austin Seibert had a great game -- but Grant really hates field goals. And Grant calls Lee out for his thoughts on RBs (50:10). "Film Time w/Lee" breaks down Murray's long 75-yard TD pass to Marquise Brown (56:40). Carson Meier makes his first career catch (1:01:50), everybody hated Grant Calcaterra's fumble (1:03:00), and the guys briefly touch on the weekend of college football (1:04:20). | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter: @LeeBensonNews9
