Summary

This is an extra long episode thanks to Mississippi State's football stunner and my trip to the Mississippi Delta. I mean, WHAT A TIME, everyone. The Bulldogs got a signature win against Arizona State, and everything from the uniforms to the crowd to the social media to the CATCHING OF THE FOOTBALL was absolutely fantastic. Naturally Melanie and I break down all of my thoughts and reactions to the game, plus some observations about the college football weekend in general.

We also talk to our good friend Travis Cottrell - who's the special guest for our San Antonio live show - and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!
