Summary

Our weekly episode covers the usual - news and notes in Root's Roundup, ruminations in Three Man Thoughts, game previews in Game Previews. The Thoughts section is particularly intriguing, though - the fellas debate the merits (or lack thereof) of Kentucky, Texas, and Arkansas, examine two mid-major darlings and discuss MM at-larges, plus play a game of "Real or Not" regarding several top 40 squads.

Thanks to Homefield Apparel for sponsoring the episode!
