Welcome to Season 8! College Football is right around the corner and we get you caught up on the biggest stories of the summer. We also enjoyed the privilege of interviewing Emily, a Mississippi State alum, and we get her perspective as a Mississippi State fan on the SEC.

We are honored to be joined by Special Guest Josh Tucker, who started the @rolltidenation page on TikTok which is THE premier account for Alabama Football fans on that platform. In this episode we recap the CFP National Championship game, discuss the retirement of Nick Saban and the resulting hire of Kalen DeBoer, talk about Jim Harbaugh's likely return to the NFL, and award our SEC Superlatives.

This week we recap the Bowl Games (including the CFP Semifinal Game between Alabama and Michigan), discuss whether or not an SEC-less National Championship suggests a shift in power, brainstorm how to make Bowl Season more interesting, and make our picks for the National Championship game. All that and MUCH more on this week's exciting episode of Pigskins & Pageantry!

Happy Holidays to all of you! We try to make sense of the transfer portal madness, make predictions for the upcoming Bowl Games, and read a very touching poem in a Southern Accent. Matt may regret his decisions regarding the bowl game predictions, or he might not.

We recap a THRILLER of an SEC Championship, dissect the CONTROVERSY that was the final CFP Rankings, make our choices for the Heisman, and MUCH more on this exciting episode of Pigskins and Pageantry!

On this week's episode we'll talk about a Rivalry Week (more like "Rumble Week") that didn't disappoint, the coaching carousel, transfer portal news, the latest CFP Rankings, give each team a grade for its regular season performance, and make our predictions for the SEC Championship!

We recap a light week around the SEC, make predictions for a Rivalry Week that promises to provide some INTENSE matchups, and prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving with a random SEC Coach who decides to crash the Thanksgiving Day Feast

HUGE news this week out of College Station. We discuss Jimbo Fisher's firing and the list of top candidates to replace him. We also recap last week's games, respond to the haters (incredibly brave people behind a keyboard who are great at talking smack WELL after the game has been decided), and make predictions for the upcoming slate of games. Things continue to get wilder in the SEC Football landscape as the regular season nears its end!

Georgia is in Survivor mode. The NCAA needs to do its job. We have a very good conversation about targeting and concussions in the sport. The latest CFP Rankings just came out and deserve some discussion. Should Michigan even be included? All this and predictions for another huge slate of games on this week's exciting episode of Pigskins and Pageantry!
