The Bill Haisten podcast

Another Bixby-Jenks showdown and a Bedlam prediction – OU, 38-34

In this week’s Bill Haisten Podcast, there is a little talk about OU’s need for better and more physical blocking as it prepares for its move to the SEC. There is a brief look at this weekend’s start of the Big 12 basketball schedule. The star of this podcast, however, is the Oklahoma City Thunder. Through the first 33 games of the NBA season, the Thunder occupies second place in the Western Conference and seems to be a real threat in the postseason. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has solidified his position as one of the five best players in the world.
