Justin and Dan open the show by discussing the Alabama A&M matchup and why they think it’s important to play as many paycheck games against in-state teams as possible. Then they take a look at the visiting Bulldogs’ recent history and why the Tigers should be able to take care of business Saturday night.

Topics inside this game preview include: Important goals for the team in a game against an FCS opponent, how an RPO-heavy scheme could play out in this matchup, expectations for certain players and position groups and how Payton Thorne could emulate another second-year quarterback from a past “bridge year” on the Plains.

The guys wrap up the show by taking a look at some of the Week 1 games that stand out to them around college football and debate which store brand products are acceptable to purchase over the real things.
