Welcome in to My Dogs of Bargain on MPW Digital, presented by Heath Riles Barbecue.

I'm Landon, joined by Austin on this Monday edition of the show.

We're going to talk about Mississippi State and Tennessee, talk about some other things going on around the SEC.

Also, earlier this morning, I guess you call them the conference pods in terms of the common opponents each year,

the consistent opponents each year, got released.

And so we're going to look at that,

and what that means for all the SEC a little bit later on in the show.

But a lot of good stuff to get to.

Austin, man, are you excited as we enter into SEC play?

Because this Saturday is absolutely loaded across college football. Yes, no, it is. This is, you know, week one was a really, really big weekend. The past, you know, the past, you know, week three, week four have kind of been been slacking when it comes to big games. Now, there has been some upsets, which has kept it a lot, very interesting. But yeah, man, this is a big, big Saturday for Mississippi State.

For a lot of teams, Mississippi State, man, this is a massive game, a massive, massive game.

Tennessee has already had some really, really quality opponents on their schedule.

They play Syracuse, who's been playing great football the past few weeks.

And they're playing Georgia, who's been obviously playing some great football with Gunner Stockton. He's looking very, very good. And this is going to be a big test. I think this Tennessee team is better than this Arizona state team that we've already played. And so I think this is the biggest test for us so far. And I'm glad we got out of non-conference 4-0, feeling good about that. But we need

everybody to rally behind Mississippi State if we want to pull out this win. We have to play

almost a perfect game to pull this off. Yeah, I mean, State is currently the underdog by,

I've seen a lot of different numbers, but eight and a half seems to be fairly consistent.

And it's in Starkville.

It's at 315, not a night game, but it'll be that white interlocking. Let's see, do I have the interlocking helmet? There we go. There's maroon, but the white interlocking on Saturday. And so a lot of stuff to get to. We're going to look at Tennessee and kind of take a look at what their team's been built on this year.

Obviously, Joey Aguilar is the quarterback no longer Nico.

And Mississippi State played Tennessee close last season. In today's press conference with Tennessee coach Josh Hepple, he mentioned that they're very familiar with what Mississippi State does,

especially since they played him last year, and he kind of mentored Levy.
