    Ep. 419 - The 2025 College Football Season is Over

    Lee and Grant are back to talk about the end of the 2025 college football season. Indiana has won a National Championship in tackle football, Curt Cignetti is the master of the universe, and Lee & Grant want to talk about DeMarco Murray and his failure in the RB room. But first, we put a wrap on OU's portal season and talk in-depth about Owen Heinecke's situation with the NCAA. 226 days until UTEP...   Subscribe to the show on YouTube: @WestofEverest | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter/X: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter/X: @LeeBensonTweets

    Ep. 418 - Has Portal Combat Produced a Sooner Flawless Victory?

    Lee and Grant are back after a CFP-exit hiatus to discuss the goings on in the College Football Transfer Portal. OU has received 11 commits in the portal thus far, and Lee and Grant are going to rank their impact from 1 to 11. They also go over each of the 29 portal defections to tell you whether it's a big deal or not. All that, plus thoughts on new TE coach Jason Witten, the offensive coaching staff as a whole, and they give their pick for the National Championship game. Grant really despises Miami.   Subscribe to the show on YouTube: @WestofEverest | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter/X: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter/X: @LeeBensonTweets

The sun will (hopefully) come out tomorrow.   Subscribe to the show on YouTube: @WestofEverest | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter/X: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter/X: @LeeBensonTweets

    Ep. 416 - Sooners v Bama Part Deux Preview - CFP Mega Pod

    The Benson Bros are back after the bowl bye to preview Oklahoma's matchup in the first round of the College Football Playoff against the University of Alabama. Lee and Grant spend the first 90 minutes talking all about the Friday night matchup from every angle. Then, they wrap up the longest show in West of Everest history touching on ND's antics following their CFP snub (justice for the Pop Tarts Bowl!), shake their head at Sherrone Moore, and give their picks of the week. We all want to see John Mateer with a rose in his mouth late Friday night. If you're going to be in Norman, show up early, have some beverages, and cause a ruckus.   Subscribe to the show on YouTube: @WestofEverest | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter/X: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter/X: @LeeBensonTweets

    Ep. 414 - Sooners Relax in the Clubhouse Awaiting Playoff Opponent

    The Benson Bros are back and in good spirits as they bask in the glory of being idle during Championship Week while having a College Football Playoff spot all but wrapped up. We go over your Three Word Reviews from the LSU game, discuss who the Sooners might play in the First Round of the CFP, and then throw our hat in the ring of the Miami/Notre Dame debate. All that, and our Picks of the Week.

    Ep. 413 - Sooners Survive LSU, All but Wrapping Up a Playoff Spot

    The Benson Bros were in the stadium to see Oklahoma punch their ticket to the Playoff in a grimy win against stupid LSU. Lee and Grant go over their likes and dislikes from OU's win against the Tigers, have a heated argument over how a defender is supposed to tackle a quarterback, and give a slight lookahead to the College Football Playoff field. LSU is bad and everyone who likes them should feel bad. Peyton Bowen for Heisman.   Subscribe to the show on YouTube: @WestofEverest | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter/X: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter/X: @LeeBensonTweets

    Here at West of Everest, we're thankful for a win-and-in scenario heading into the season's final week. Lee and Grant are back to preview LSU's first ever trip to Norman. But first, Grant rants about knuckleheads, Brent Venables goes into detail about the running back room, then Lee and Grant talk about what they've been thankful for this football season. It's already Week 14 and time doesn't exist.   Subscribe to the show on YouTube: @WestofEverest | Like the show on Facebook: @westofeverest | Follow Grant on Twitter/X: @GrantBenson25 | Follow Lee on Twitter/X: @LeeBensonTweets
