A Super Talk Mississippi Media Production.

This is a Thunder and Lightning exclusive here on Super Talk Mississippi, Super Talk

dot F.M. or wherever it is you get podcast from, I'm Brian Hayden, I'm joined right now by my good friend Brandon Marcello covers college

football for 24-7 sports on a national basis and of course used to cover Mississippi State.

A long, long time ago back when we were a lot younger. Those days are gone though

Brandon I'm afraid. When we were young yeah 12 years ago 11 years ago okay I like, I was like, okay, it was a long time ago and then you put a number to it and now I just want to just go find a nursing home to go sit in.

It's scary.

That's awful.

All right. I was going to try to recover now to do the interview.

SEC football, four weeks in. Let's start big picture with you. What's the biggest surprise thus far in the

conference through four weeks for you?

It to be quite honest I think it's Georgia because their defense, I know that Kent State had 22 points, but their defense

just has been stellar.

It's not as deep as it was last year, but they still have enough to just absolutely weird

lean on to opponents and wear them down. I'm not putting a lot of stock in that

Kent State game. I know a lot of people go, well look, look, yeah, there's some

weaknesses there but I just don't see it.

If you go back and watch that game, the offense, they weren't quite doing what they're supposed to be doing.

And anyway, long story story short it's Georgia they're just leaning on

opponents with that defense I thought that they would be a top 10 team this

year maybe top 8 but they are the clear cut number one right now and at this

point in the year you had told me that a month ago I would thought you were crazy.
