Hosts: Ryan (“Boomer Sooner”) & Jeremy (“Go Pokes”)
Length: ~1 hour
Theme: Red River Rivalry week, OU’s defensive dominance, OSU’s struggles, and a look across pro sports.
1. OU vs. Texas Preview
OU’s 44–0 win over Kent State didn’t convince Ryan that the offense is ready.
Michael Hawkins Jr. showed flashes, but decision-making and pocket presence raised concerns.
The Sooner defense, however, looks elite — Ryan calls it a Top 5 unit in the nation.
Debate: Was OU “holding back” the playbook, or just simplifying for Hawkins?
Texas’ surprising loss to Florida may give OU an edge, but it’s still a must-win game.
2. OSU Recap: Arizona Troubles Continue
Cowboys fall 41–13 in Tucson after another slow start.
Defense allowed fewer yards than previous weeks but still gave up big plays.
Jeremy praises OSU’s effort despite struggles — “at least they didn’t quit.”
Discussion: Can new coordinator Grantham turn things around quickly?

Ryan compares the situation to Bob Stoops and Mike Leach’s 1999–2000 offensive revolution at OU.

Ryan shares a core memory watching Game 7 from a Manhattan bar.
Jeremy’s brother reports from media day: Thunder still humble and hungry.
