    "16 Teams, One Trophy: SEC Media Days"

    The SEC's four-day roadshow landed in Tampa, Florida for the first time ever, and the guys break down everything that mattered — from talk of a break from the NCAA, to six new head coaches, to a nine-game conference schedule debuting in 2026, to a conference still chasing its first national title since 2022. The storylines are stacked. From Oklahoma's John Mateer bounce-back bid to Georgia's youngest-roster-in-America title defense to Alabama's search for an offensive identity, this episode covers the coaches, the quarterbacks, and the questions that'll shape the SEC race all season.
