S7E18: SEC Football Preview 2025 - Arch Manning, Saban Rumors, Bold Predictions, Hot Seats & Overhyped Teams

Host Brad Fowler is excited to be joined by Adam Spencer, who covers all 16 SEC football teams for Saturday Down South.

We kick things off with Adam’s thoughts on the swirling rumor from SEC Media Days that Nick Saban may not be done coaching, and where the legendary coach could possibly return if he does make a comeback.

Adam also weighs in on SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey’s comments about the 12-team College Football Playoff format potentially staying — and whether the SEC is under pressure to perform and keep its influence intact.

We dive into the debate surrounding the potential 9-game SEC schedule and whether a reported $50–80 million incentive from ESPN makes it a done deal.

Then we shift to the field, breaking down big questions for 2025 contenders like Texas, Alabama, LSU, Georgia, and Florida. Adam shares what could derail Texas despite their loaded roster, if Alabama’s question marks are too much to overcome, and whether DJ Lagway could elevate the Gators back into relevance.

Plus, Adam questions whether Arch Manning should really be the Heisman favorite heading into the season.

We also discuss which under-the-radar teams in the SEC could crash the Playoff picture — and which programs might disappoint due to inflated preseason hype.

Adam breaks down the crowded coaching hot seat across the SEC, from Florida’s Billy Napier to Oklahoma’s Brent Venables, and offers insight on which jobs could open up if things go south this fall.
