Welcome in to My Dogs Are Barkin on MPW Digital, presented by Heathrow's Barbecue, and welcome to week number one.

And as the time we're recording this, there's already been an SEC game played.

Missouri cruised over central Arkansas.

However, if you do have some time, say a quick prayer for Missouri's offensive line because they look pretty bad.

But the fact that matter is, it's week one, Austin, and football is finally back. And like, and now you're at a point, I don't know, it just feels so good. Like even the weather this week is good. It's like everything's going to come in together and even just having any sort of, you know, any sort of football on the TV, it just feels like everything's made right again.

Yeah, no doubt, man.

It is that time of the year last Saturday.

I was locked in UNLV versus Idaho State, Dan Mullen's first game back in four years.

Like I was so excited for that game.

So, so excited.

Today we're recording this on a Thursday, Boise State USF.

I was watching that game very, very closely. Great game until about the third quarter, and Boise State got absolutely exposed. But there's football on currently. Like this is awesome. Colorado and primetime plays tomorrow. That's going to be so exciting. And this Saturday, we're going to get into it. Huge slate of games, Bulldogs playing.

And then you and I, for the people that don't know, you and I live in Alabama. You live in Tuscaloosa. I live in the Birmingham area. So we got a lot of Alabama fans. And, man, they love them some Alabama football. So I'm already seeing grills out. People already decorate. dude it's it's that time of the, man. I'm so excited. And, you know, in this episode, we will give our kind of final preview and prediction for Southern Mississippi State. This is Mississippi State podcast. But if you're not familiar last year, we added the element on our Thursday show to be our pick show. So kind of go through the top slate of games. We're not going to waste your time going across. You know, games that don't really matter. But this week, we're going through all SEC games, even just a touch on them since we're finally back to it. And at the end of it, Austin and I are going to make a money line pick on an underdog. So throughout the year, we're going to keep tally of it.

And last year, Austin went on a heater, like five weeks in a row.

He picked the underdog money line and they won.

And he smoked me last year.

This year, we're going to keep tabs and see who wins by the end of the year.

More of the money line underdog picks by the end of the year.

But you mentioned you're seeing grills come out.

You're seeing people get excited and getting ready to barbecue.

That leads into a perfect example to let you know that this episode and every episode is brought to you by our presenting sponsor, Heath Riles Barbecue.

Heath Riles, man, is such, such a key for the fall.
