·42 min·2 clips

They call Drew Mestemaker the obvious No. 1 Big 12 quarterback.

1. Locked On Oklahoma State and Locked On West Virginia use a crossover format to argue about Big 12 quarterback rankings and roster construction. 2. Cody Stovall from Locked On Oklahoma State and Mountaineer Paul from Locked On West Virginia matter because each brings his own team's quarterback debate into the conversation. 3. The episode is for sorting out whether Drew Mestemaker, Scotty Fox, and Michael Hawkins Jr. are being rated correctly. 4. Cody says ESPN and CBS handled the quarterback list differently, and he calls CBS's placement of Drew Mestemaker "preposterous." 5. He says Mestemaker led the country in passing yards and ranked second nationally in touchdowns. 6. The discussion compares Mestemaker with Noah Fifita, Brendan Sorsby, Baron Morton, and Fernando Mendoza. 7. Cody argues that Mestemaker's production matters even after adjusting for the jump from the AAC to the Big 12. 8. The hosts also talk about Julian Lewis, whom Cody says torched West Virginia and could be a top three or four quarterback next year. 9. West Virginia's quarterback situation comes up with Scotty Fox, Michael Hawkins Jr., and the possibility that both could play this season. 10. Cody ties West Virginia's quarterback room to Rich Rodriguez's comments about choosing Fox and needing another player at a similar level to push him. 11. Cody says Drew Mestemaker put up almost 4,400 yards and 39 touchdowns with Caleb Hawkins, Wyatt Young, and Miles Coleman around him. 12. He says Mestemaker still deserves the top spot because those supporting players did not carry the whole burden. 13. Ross and Cody then discuss the state of West Virginia's quarterback room and say Fox fits the "West Virginia mode" as a gamer. 14. The conversation turns to Cam Cook, Jaden Bray, and the question of whether Oklahoma State did enough on the offensive line to protect Mestemaker. 15. Cody says Oklahoma State's recent quarterback battles were chaotic and that Mike Gundy did not manage them well. 16. The show later pivots to a sports draft question about keeping three events and cutting nine, which pushes Cody toward the College World Series, March Madness, and the Olympics. 17. Ross pushes back by prioritizing the College Football Playoff and questions playoff expansion beyond four teams. 18. The tone stays conversational and argumentative, with both hosts interrupting, laughing, and trading roster opinions in a crossover setting. 19. Listeners who like Big 12 quarterback debates and roster talk. 20. Listeners wanting only game previews or short news updates.
