Justin, Dan and Painter break down both sides of the ball for Auburn's potentially season-shifting matchup against Mississippi State on Saturday.

The guys look at how the Tigers’ struggling offense matches up against the Bulldogs’ defense and why Auburn really needs to have true balance in a game like this. They look at the two-quarterback system with Pa…

Justin, Painter and Dan try to make sense of Auburn’s offense after the 28-21 loss to Ole Miss on Saturday night. They look at the ineffective quarterback carousel and ask if the Tigers could benefit from some tempo on offense moving forward.

The guys also break down what they saw from Auburn’s defense, which rallied from a slow start to give the offense chance after chance to succeed. They look ahead to the next four games and look at what the Tigers need to do to still put together a convincing proof of concept in Year 1 under Hugh Freeze.

The episode ends with some takeaways from Auburn basketball’s open scrimmage on Saturday and Justin and Dan’s spoiler-free review of Killers of the Flower Moon.

The boys discuss a tough three-game stretch for Auburn. They talk about where things have been most frustrating and what, if anything, might be done at quarterback. Plus, why there is still room for optimism, starting with a massive opportunity inside Jordan-Hare Stadium …

Justin and Painter check in from Baton Rouge to give their in-person view of what happened in Auburn’s 30-point loss to LSU in Death Valley. Dan brings his perspective from back on the Plains.

The guys break down another rough offensive performance away from home and how it feels like Auburn has been unable to figure out who it is on that side of the ball. They look at the Payton Thorne vs. Robby Ashford discussion and why there need to be changes of some kind.

They also talk about a disappointing defensive showing, particularly in the areas that Auburn could control. The episode concludes with a brief discussion of the recent Pro Day scrimmage for basketball and a salute to our Louisiana friends.

Justin, Painter and Dan return from the off weekend to preview Auburn at LSU. Painter might have inadvertently given away his location in the intro.

The guys break down what looks so off about LSU’s defense so far this season — but why Auburn isn’t guaranteed to enjoy the same amount of success against the Bayou Bengals. They also look at a red-hot Jayde…

As is tradition during Auburn football’s off week, this premium podcast episode is dedicated to Auburn basketball talk and previews the Tigers’ upcoming 2023-24 season — which starts in just a month.

The guys look at reasonable expectations for the new-look roster and what offensive upgrades might be in store after a grind-it-out 2022-23 campaign on that…

Justin, Dan and Painter talk about how Hugh Freeze and his team gave Kirby Smart and Georgia everything they wanted despite Auburn not playing particularly well in several areas.

They discuss the gap in the passing game, acknowledge that Brock Bowers might be the best player in college football and once again point out that this team can lean on its defense for the foreseeable future.

Note: Our next two podcasts will be for subscribers only, so our next free podcast won’t be until two weeks from now, after the LSU game.

Former Auburn reporters Jordan Hill and Ben Wolk, now of Dawgs247, make their annual return to the podcast to preview the Auburn-Georgia game.

Jordan and Ben break down what they’ve seen from the Bulldogs during their first four games of the season — from the play of new starting quarterback Carson Beck to some surprisingly underwhelming areas for the ba…

Justin, Dan and Painter recap Auburn football’s 27-10 loss at Texas A&M in College Station. Most of the episode is spent dissecting the woeful offensive performance from the Tigers, who looked overmatched at quarterback and couldn’t seem to get anything going consistently — even in a better-than-expected running game.

The guys talk about why Auburn’s talent gap with Texas A&M only explains some of the bad loss on the road and how the Tigers didn’t do themselves any favors with their mistakes. They make sure to take time out to commend Auburn’s defense, which had a few errors but overall played well enough to keep Auburn in the game for a while.

The episode concludes with Painter taking everyone on a journey through a loaded Week 4 in college football and a weekend food update.
