Gabe Ikard and Teddy Lehman discuss the Oklahoma Sooners being picked 7th in the preseason SEC media poll. Despite going to the College Football Playoff last season and having the best rosters of Brent Venables' tenure, it appears people just don't quite believe in the Sooners to compete for an SEC championship in 2026. They also discuss the 10 Sooners (Isaiah Sategna, Michael Fasusi, Taylor Wein, David Stone, Kip Lewis, Eli Bowen, Peyton Bowen, Tate Sandell, Grayson Miller & Ben Anderson) that made the preseason All-SEC teams. Ikard and Lehman give their "Winners & Losers of the Weekend": 21 year old golf phenom Jackson Koivun held off Scottie Scheffler to win the 3M Open, San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan suffered significant injuries in a car crash, the Philadelphia 76ers signed LeBron James & Sam Presti and the OKC Thunder have put significant financial pressure on the Denver Nuggets by signing Spencer Jones to a restricted free agent offer sheet.
