Hosts Brad Fowler and Alex Higdon break down all the biggest storylines from Week 2 in the NFL and Week 3 in College Football.

We cover it all — from the Cowboys’ defense getting shredded by the Giants, to Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ stale offense in another disappointing loss. We dive into Trevor Lawrence’s turnover problem, Micah Parsons dominating Washington, and Joe Burrow’s latest injury putting the Bengals’ season in jeopardy. The Packers look like the NFL’s best team right now, while the Steelers’ defense has been exposed, and the Chargers are suddenly 2-0 with their defense looking like a force. We also hit on Baker Mayfield’s clutch game-winning drive for Tampa Bay, the Broncos’ late collapse against the Colts, why the Bears’ defense has major issues, and whether the Vikings should call Atlanta about bringing Kirk Cousins back after JJ McCarthy’s injury.

On the college side, Georgia edges Tennessee in overtime in the game of the year, Texas A&M stuns Notre Dame in a program-defining win, and Clemson proves they might be the most overrated team in football. We also discuss Arch Manning’s struggles, LSU’s offensive concerns, and why Georgia Tech’s Haynes King and Brent Key have this team looking like a legit ACC contender.

Host Brad Fowler is excited to be joined by Adam Spencer, who covers all 16 SEC football teams for Saturday Down South.

We kick things off with Adam’s thoughts on the swirling rumor from SEC Media Days that Nick Saban may not be done coaching, and where the legendary coach could possibly return if he does make a comeback.

Adam also weighs in on SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey’s comments about the 12-team College Football Playoff format potentially staying — and whether the SEC is under pressure to perform and keep its influence intact.

We dive into the debate surrounding the potential 9-game SEC schedule and whether a reported $50–80 million incentive from ESPN makes it a done deal.

Then we shift to the field, breaking down big questions for 2025 contenders like Texas, Alabama, LSU, Georgia, and Florida. Adam shares what could derail Texas despite their loaded roster, if Alabama’s question marks are too much to overcome, and whether DJ Lagway could elevate the Gators back into relevance.

Plus, Adam questions whether Arch Manning should really be the Heisman favorite heading into the season.

We also discuss which under-the-radar teams in the SEC could crash the Playoff picture — and which programs might disappoint due to inflated preseason hype.

Adam breaks down the crowded coaching hot seat across the SEC, from Florida’s Billy Napier to Oklahoma’s Brent Venables, and offers insight on which jobs could open up if things go south this fall.
