Welcome to a new episode of Land-Grant Podcast Network’s Power Two Podcast. On this show, we talk about Big Ten and SEC football…and everyone else. This show is for the die-hard fans and the casual college football fans. After every week of action, we will catch you up on all the major matchups of the previous weekend and look ahead at the games, storylines, and players you should be paying attention to for the next week. My name is Jordan Williams, and I am joined by my co-host DaNaysia Jones. Lock in as we run a power sweep through the college football landscape.

On this week’s episode, DJ and Jordan discuss the firing of Kent State’s head coach Kenni Burns. Unfortunately, it is not due to his back-to-back losing seasons but it may potentially be due to gambling allegations. It looks like Tennessee Football will begin shopping for a new quarterback because Nico Iamaleava refused to show up to Spring Practice. It seems that he is demanding even more money and Tennessee did not fall for it. It will be very interesting to see where he lands and if he demands the same amount of funds from another program. DJ appreciates that Tennessee did not cave in as that could cause a pretty bad precedent. DJ and Jordan also share the sad news of Kyren Lacy’s death and send condolences to his family and loved ones. 

In the two-minute drill, DJ and Jordan discuss the upcoming WNBA draft. DJ shares the list of invitees that includes the presumed first pick Paige Beuckers, Georgia Amoore, Dominique Molanga, Kiki Irafen, Aneesah Morrow and so many more. Jordan discusses why some athletes who were eligible opted to forgo this year's draft and wait until 2026. The new WNBA Collective Bargaining agreement will have some serious implications for not only the 2026 draft class but also current WNBA athletes on one year contracts with their current teams. DJ and Jordan also discuss the NBA Playoffs which start April 15 with the Play-In Tournament. Some teams to watch are the Thunder and Lakers as well as the Cavaliers for title contention.

In the pre-game power sweep, DJ and Jordan discuss their top matchups for the SEC. Jordan’s picks were: Florida-LSU, Texas-Florida, Texas-UGA, Alabama-LSU, and SC-Ole Miss. DJ’s picks were: Georgia - Tennessee, Alabama - Georgia, LSU - Ole Miss, Alabama - Vanderbilt, and Texas - Texas A&M.

In the two-minute warning, Jordan shares a series called Zero Day and a movie called G 20 to watch on Netflix and Amazon Prime. DJ shares her distaste with the WNBA’s social media promotion of the draft.
