    Episode 432: Liftoff

    After their long travels, Justin and Dan are back in the Wings studio to share their many thoughts on Auburn basketball’s statement comeback win at Houston. (They don’t have nearly as many thoughts on the whole plane incident, though.) The guys open with a look at how it took everybody for the Tigers to rally against the Cougars — and how Tahaad Pettiford and Johni Broome had superstar-level performances in the Toyota Center. Justin shares his insight from what he saw and heard from being in Houston on Saturday night, while Dan points out the historical significance of what Bruce Pearl’s team did in this game. Later in the episode, they look at what this win means in the big picture for an Auburn basketball program looking to win a championship. They also share their recent experiences away from the Plains and make a startling discovery about “Mr. Brightside.” If you’re receiving this free podcast episode and would like to upgrade to a paid subscription that gives you access to all stories and premium podcast episodes, subscribe using the button below or clicking this link.

    Episode 430: Regression (Football) and Progression (Basketball)

    Justin and Dan open the show by breaking down how Auburn football continues to go backwards — especially in home games — in Year 2 under Hugh Freeze. They look at what the Tigers were unable to do against Vanderbilt, including the puzzling lack of carries for Jarquez Hunter and the failure to capitalize on an outstanding defensive performance against Diego Pavia and company. Then it’s a switch over to basketball, where they look at where Auburn improved from the first to second exhibition. Dan gives his thoughts on strong debuts from true freshmen Tahaad Pettiford and Jahki Howard. Justin shows how the Tigers rose to Bruce Pearl’s challenges on offense and where they can improve on defense. The episode ends with a quick look at Wednesday night’s season opener against a tricky Vermont team that’s been a regular in the NCAA Tournament for years. The guys also discuss their basketball travel in the upcoming days, which will mean an end to regular studio episodes for a while. Don’t worry, though. They’ll still deliver the podcast, from coast to coast.

    Episode 428: Better Late Than Never (feat. Henry Patton)

    Justin and Dan open the show by breaking down Auburn football’s 24-10 road win at Kentucky. They start with the resilient play of the Tigers’ defense, which won big at the line of scrimmage and played well on the back end down the stretch. Dan projects what Auburn’s secondary might look like in 2025 after throwing so many young players into the fire. The guys then switch over to the offensive performance. Justin explains why Auburn went so pass-heavy early and how the Tigers finally made the adjustment they needed to dominate the game. They rave over Jarquez Hunter’s historic rushing performance and how he deserved a moment like this. In the second half of the episode, Henry Patton of Auburn Rivals calls in from South Carolina to share what he saw in the basketball exhibition win over Furman. Henry explains why Auburn’s defense was so successful, how fans shouldn’t overreact to individual performances and where the two true freshmen stood out the most. The show ends with a discussion of Stanley Kubrick and Halloween movies.

    Episode 426: Doomed to Repeat It (Mizzou Recap)

    Justin and Dan stay up to break down Auburn football’s latest loss in a very winnable game — a blown 14-point lead on the road at Missouri. The guys open with their thoughts on how the Tigers’ offense problems have gone well beyond turnovers and into crippling amounts of inefficiency. Dan makes a point about what might happen if things could turn around toward the end of the season. Justin wonders if Auburn just is what it is at this point in the campaign. They also discuss the recurring woes on defense and special teams and how they played roles in the meltdown, even if scoring only 10 offensive points in an SEC game was the ultimate killer. They look at what might happen moving forward with the young players and why improved recruiting isn’t a guarantee of anything. The episode ends with a lightning round of Hallmark movies, Kansas City barbecue and North by Northwest.
