HR3 - Georgia must make those few game altering plays to beat Alabama in rematch

In hour three Mike Johnson, Ali Mac, and Mark Zinno spend some time with the Co-Owner and Publisher of Dawgs HQ and Co-Host of The Steakhouse, Rusty Mansell! Ali, Mike, Mark, and Rusty discuss the crazy stuff that goes on during the final 24 hours of national signing day, how Rusty thinks the NCAA could fix their bad calendar, how much weight college football fans should put into signing day class rankings, schools getting revenue sharing money for the first time this year, more schools having more money to spend on NIL, if Rusty was surprised that number one ranked overall high school football player and number one quarterback in the entire 2026 class, Jared Curtis, flipped from Georgia to Vanderbilt, if Jared Curtis is the crowned jewel in this year’s recruiting class, if Georgia can replace Jared Curtis, if it hurts Georgia to lose a recruit like Jared Curtis, who’s the next marquee guy in this 2026 recruiting class after Jared Curtis, and how many text messages and calls Rusty will get today for national signing day. Then, Ali, Mike, and Mark continue hour three by spending some time with National NFL insider for The Athletic Jeff Howe. Ali, Mike, Mark, and Jeff discuss who Jeff thinks is leading the NFL MVP race right now, how Ben Johnson has gotten the Chicago Bears to be 9-3 and atop of the NFC North, which team Jeff thinks is the most fugazi and is most likely to lose in the first round of the NFL playoffs between the Bears, the Denver Broncos, and the New England Patriots, what Jeff thinks has been the blueprint for Seattle Seahawks Head Coach Mike Macdonald to get the Seahawks to 9-3 and towards the top of the NFC, and how many head coach openings Jeff thinks there will be. Finally, The Morning Shift crew closes out hour three by reacting to the latest College Football Playoff rankings, explaining why they think BYU beating Texas Tech on Saturday in the Big 12 Championship game would spell bad news for the College Football Playoff committee, and then by diving into the life of Mark Zinno in The Life of Squid, featuring Mark Zinno!
