About this episode
Oklahoma football is through awards season and we're starting to brace for bowl practices to hit full swing as Lincoln Riley gets ready to hold his first bowl prep press conference Thursday. We get an update on Eddie's chipped tooth (1:20-3:00) because he actually has a dentist appointment now. Josh updates us on life and death. His baby is almost here but he had to put his dog down yesterday and we quiz Eddie on the worst dog dying movies of all time (3:00-7:30) and somehow grief banging and Top Gun sneaks in. Somehow Josh and Carey get into discussing what happened to Bryce Youngquist and what really happened (11:12-15:40). We talk a little of Baker Mayfield and the Heisman, Jason White, Bob Stoops and whether Baker is going to age well unlike Geno Torretta (15:45-25:04) Jason Kersey, former OU beat writer for the Oklahoman, former Arkansas beat writer for SECCountry.com and he now covers the SEC Conference for The Athletic. (25:35-52:54) We talk with Kersey about Georgia fans, the Mercedes-Benz dome, the site of the national title game, dealing with and fighting with fans on Twitter, and plenty of early thoughts on OU/Georgia. We're also your recruiting pushermen as Josh updates us on how the early signing period is shaping up for Oklahoma (53:51-1:15:12). We break down the big defensive offers that are still out there heading toward the first signing day and talk about Oklahoma's overall approach with kids right now. We also speculate on how Josh Proctor's recruitment could play out with him not signing early. Voicemails are back this week. We've got another Stoops impersonator, a level-headed caller that sparks some talk about ESPN mentioning Baker's arrest during his Heisman ceremony, a triggered caller and Firecracker Farts is back again, come back (1:15:15-1:30:15) Learn more about your ad choices.
