The guys dive into the controversy surrounding USC beat writer and AP Poll voter Haley Sawyer, after she placed Florida two slots higher following their loss to USF. They spotlight weekend breakout candidates, battle over college football's best uniforms, and tackle the burning question: Is the mighty SEC finally losing its grip?

They also discuss the Arch Manning shoulder speculation following Steve Sarkisian's press conference, and break down why we’re seeing all these political ads during Saturday football.  Hosted on Acast.
