It's not the most exhilarating slate of games this weekend in the SEC, but there's much to say about Mississippi State's quiet run to power in the SEC West, Brittany's theory that Auburn is tearing up their airport runways to screw with Penn State, and some more dumping on Texas A&M as that is the thing to do. We don't speak much of Nick Saban's latest rant, but you know that's something you could look up yourself. Plus a variety of what seems to be non-competitive games, plus our Locks of the Week and Betting with Brittany.

Whoo deep breaths, that was some weekend. Ben and Brittany break down their major takeaways from the weekend, including the sneaky Mississippis, Alabama's potential playmaker problem, teams with quarterback struggles, and the rise of the Kentucky Wildcats to national prominence. There are some other things too, but I'm writing this summary a night after we recorded, so I can't quite remember anything else...but I'm sure there's some other pearls hidden inside!

***ALERT: BRITTANY SAID A WORD THAT BEN THOUGHT WAS A MADE UP WORD, AND BEN WAS RUTHLESS IN HIS MOCKING ABOUT IT, BUT IT TURNS OUT IT IS A REAL WORD AND BRITTANY IS A VERBAL GENIUS AND BEN DON'T KNOW THINGS.***

It's Week Two! And we are after the happenings in SEC football as the conference prepares to continue its dominance for another week...and maybe LSU will win too. (Hey, look what Coach O is up to!) Brittany and Ben dive into all the games, including the Horns Down controversy with Alabama coming to town, the latest updates on Vanderbilt's quest for five wins, and Brittany's new love affair with Florida. Plus our Lock of the Weeks, Betting with Brittany, and our new segment - Mike Leach's Musings.

And RIP to Queen Elizabeth II, one of the greatest of us all. Perhaps though, quite telling, is this report of the first football game that the new sovereign - Charles III - saw in the United States...

Week 1 is in the books, with all SEC teams getting off to great starts - except for the Fighting Bengal Tigers. We make an express trip around all the games and talk about who impressed, who failed to live up to the hype, and who had a weather delay. Plus we question the necessity for extra points, wonder about how many Stetson Bennetts there are out in the world, and revisit the impending undefeated season that the Vanderbilt Commodores are marching toward. Look out for a new format for our recap weeks starting next week!

It's football time in the South! And everywhere else for that matter, as SEC teams across the land begin their quests for immortality. Or in Vanderbilt's case, its continuation of greatness. Ben and Brittany take a look at the games on this week's docket and settle the important things, such as what exactly is a bearcat, figuring out that Utah is actually good at football, and going through the indignity of an internet outage on the first night of college football proper.

So Brittany and Ben are back again for a look at the SEC West for this season, otherwise known as Alabama's punching bag...unless there's a generational quarterback talent that can wrestle the power away for a hot minute (spoiler - that QB does not exist in this iteration). We see Ben fail to do math properly, Brittany defend Sweet Sam Pittman, and Ben finds out what a panhandle actually means. Plus an endorsement for chaos in Mississippi and a plea for some sort of joy in College Station. And other things. But mostly how Alabama owns the world and perhaps beyond.

Well it's that time of year - SEC football is nigh. We begin with a detailed discussion about our expectations with the SEC East, otherwise known as Georgia's punching bag. We talk through if Josh Heupel should be coaching football, if you would rather have mayonnaise or ketchup dumped on you, and the outrageous controversy surrounding (name redacted), the beloved South Carolina mascot. Additionally, Ben goes on a crusade to advocate for a drastically improved Vanderbilt (which you definitely should ignore as Hawaii just marched all over them for an opening touchdown at the time of this writing). 

A few days late, but we sat down to talk through the big stories and big impressions from what was a fairly dull week at SEC Media Days. BUT! There's talk of Sam's slobbering hog, Shane Beamer's next social media swoon, and what Clark Lea really meant by saying we will all bow down to Vandy. Plus Nick Saban doing some chores. Also plus, we learn what Brittany means by "weed wacking."

Only the Egg Bowl could bring you such poetry as the title suggests, and for whoever coined the phrase that encapsulates the madness of the 2019 Egg Bowl, well, good job my friend. One of the more memorable moments in recent college football lore is the center of Ben and Brittany's discussion, along with analysis of who is truly at fault(?) for this game being remembered. The jarring ramifications of this game are also discussed, along with thoughts on whether the "double dismiss" was inevitable even with the "piss" and "miss."

This is the FIRST episode of our new series called Under Review! We will take a random (or maybe not so random) player, coach, mascot, game, play, tradition, etc. from SEC football history and examine its cultural and historic impact. We start with Mr. Omaha himself - Peyton Manning. We talk about Manning's recruitment to Tennessee, his notable decision to come back for his senior year, and to what extent his career was a failure for not beating the Florida Gators. Plus Brittany introduces us to AK-14s.
