The league is seriously discussing the possibility, and try as he might, Andy still can’t make it make sense. (0:00-9:00) Next, the SEC Network’s Peter Burns joins to discuss the final year of divisions and the possibility that Auburn may throw for more yards than Alabama. Who will win the West, Alabama or LSU? Will Texas A&M finally put everything together? Who will be the most improved team in the East? (9:01-41:58) If you guessed Kentucky as the answer to that last question, then you’ll love our interview with new Kentucky quarterback Devin Leary. Leary had an excellent career at N.C. State, but after a shoulder injury derailed his 2022 season, he decided to try his hand at playing in the SEC. He wound up being one of the most coveted players in the transfer portal, and he explains why he decided to spend his final collegiate season in Lexington.

Andy was a beat writer covering those Urban Meyer Florida teams, so he might not be the target audience. But he can certainly point out what the filmmakers left out. (54:33-1:08:58)

first year as a transfer at Kentucky working with Liam Cohen. It's possible.

But first, let's talk about the conference that Devin Lary came from.

0:44.8

If you remember, he was playing for NC State for most of his career.

They are in the ACC.

The ACC got in the news again on Wednesday because, according to Pete Thamble, V.SPN,

0:57.1

a group of ACC presidents met to discuss the potential additions of Cal, Stanford, and SMU to the conference. Now, this would not be a full share
