Saturday Down South Podcast

We have an all-time game to look back on, folks. Tennessee's national championship season had many moments of uncertainty, perhaps none quite as significant as the wet, rainy November game against unbeaten Arkansas. The guys look back at a game and a season that forever made Phillip Fulmer a legend in Knoxville. What went wrong for Houston Nutt? And why can't we stop thinking about Clint Stoerner's stumble and fumble? The guys dig into all of that. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

It's about time. The guys finally had SEC Network analyst Jordan Rodgers on the pod to talk all things Twitter beef, The Bachelorette, quarantine hair, his Pitch Perfect 2 appearance and much more. Originally, the guys were going to record another edition of "Stump Marler," but technology was not in their favor. Instead, they saved that for next week and read the quarantine 5-star reviews on iTunes. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

The guys danced around this subject before, so they decided to dig into an all-important debate. Who is the greatest SEC quarterback of all-time? They narrowed the list down to 12 ... and then to 8 ... and then to 6. What did people say about this debate? What's the worst take one can have about this debate? What did we forget until revisiting this? And where do the guys stand? They dug into all of that, and came up with their own opinions on the matter. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

Let's go back to the golden era of Vandy football. The 2013 season was James Franklin's third in Nashville, and it didn't take off until this game against Georgia. Aaron Murray, playing without Todd Gurley and Keith Marshall, struggled to hold off the Commodores in what turned out to be a monumental win for Franklin. The guys ran through all the usual categories to recap a wild day in Nashville.

In honor of Mother's Day this past Sunday, the guys answered a slew of questions devoted to all things moms. Best TV mom? Best SEC mom? Moment you realized your mom was proud of you? The guys dig into all of that. Plus, we've got a special edition of Stump Marler devoted to his favorite rivalry, The Deep South's Oldest Rivalry. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

Yes, we're talking Bama today. It's a debate that many college football fans had during and after the 2017 regular season ended, but the Crimson Tide won the last Playoff spot. Obviously, we know what happened after that (the Sugar Bowl win, 2nd and 26, etc.). Today, however, is strictly devoted to examining the Playoff-worthiness of Alabama and Ohio State in 2017. OK, we've got a little UCF, too. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

Let's take it back to when Mizzou surprised the college football world by winning the SEC East. The Tigers clinched it by taking down Johnny Manziel in the 2013 regular season finale. The guys set the scene with all of the great nuggets that you probably forgot about. And let's just say the "what would've happened if the result was flipped" resulted in a whole lot of Marler pain. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

It's birthday week, and the guys have a fitting way to close it out. They've got a 4th and Wrong with all things birthdays/parties. The guys talk about what they did for their respective birthdays and much, much more. Also, Jay Woody joined the guys for another edition of "Stump Marler." Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

We've got a classic debate to discuss involving a pair of SEC programs (South Carolina was independent in 1980). It's Herschel Walker vs. George Rogers for the 1980 Heisman Trophy. Ask Georgia fans and they'll tell you it wasn't much of a debate. Herschel didn't even finish second that year, but in his attempt to become the first true freshman winner ever, many felt that age was the lone factor working against him. Was the wrong decision made? And should we remember Rogers differently? The guys dug into all of that. Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

Let's go all the way back to ... last November? Yes, the 2019 Egg Bowl was that good. The battle between Ole Miss and Mississippi State ended in the most bizarre, impactful fashion possible. Go figure that it was a Thursday night game involving a pair of teams at the bottom of the SEC West standings. The guys detailed the craziness that unfolded and looked back at some of the events that followed Elijah Moore's fake dog pee celebration. An instant class game deserved an instant classic podcast. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

Starting in 2021, college athletes are going to be able to profit from their name, image and likeness (NIL), which prompted the guys to answer some NIL-related 4th and Wrong questions. Best future ad deals? Best NCAA Football video game teams/players? Richest SEC player because of future ad deals? Plus, Jay Woody joined the guys for another edition of "Stump Marler." Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

What gets people upset? Talking about claimed national titles. Fanbases get defensive in a hurry. In addition to discussing some NFL Draft takeaways, the guys debated the 3 most egregious claimed national titles from SEC programs. They break down why it was/is a debate, what people said about them at the time, the worst take one can have about this, what we forgot/didn't know until researching this and which 3 claimed national titles were most egregious. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

A bittersweet day for Steve Spurrier was the subject of our latest "It Just Meant More." Spurrier's return to The Swamp set the stage for what turned out to be a wildly entertaining day in the SEC. The guys dug into the HBC's Florida homecoming, and how he nearly led South Carolina to a stunning win that would've had major short- and long-term implications. The guys have all of their usual superlatives to add context to a classic game. Well, let's just call it a classic 4th quarter. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler

The SEC is still king. What else is new? The guys recapped the opening night of the NFL Draft with all the interesting nuggets that came out, mainly how the SEC had a record 15 players selected. Kentucky coach Mark Stoops joined the guys to talk all things quarantine, (17:40) 2020 expectations and his bank with Bo Pelini. The guys closed Casual Friday with "Stump Marler." (39:41)

The guys took a break from Debates Down South to preview the NFL Draft. They broke down what to make of the nonsense surrounding Tua Tagovailoa, why the Bengals haven't announced Joe Burrow as their No. 1 overall pick yet and some cold takes from the way-too-early mocks from last year. Also, they talk non-first round SEC prospects who they like and some over/unders from BetOnline. Hosts: Connor O'Gara, Chris Marler
