Episode Details

SEC power struggle heats up as Steve Sarkisian gives his thoughts on a potential 24-team College Football Playoff, saying he wouldn't mind a return to a 4-team playoff and takes aim at Texas Tech’s weak schedule. With Georgia president Jere Morehead voicing concerns over a 24-team playoff and Commissioner Greg Sankey balancing pressure from coaches and administrators, the fate of the playoff format hangs in the balance. Could expanded playoffs devalue rivalry games like the Iron Bowl?

Host Chris Gordy breaks down Sarkisian’s candid takes on playoff expansion, roster spending surging past $30 million per SEC team, and the inequalities between conferences in non-conference scheduling and academics. Insightful discussion includes the rise of NIL deals, transfer credit challenges at Texas, and elite non-conference matchups against Ohio State and Michigan. Plus, an inside look at Arch Manning’s offseason growth and the latest updates from around SEC football and baseball.
