Georgia football podcast: UGA has more at stake vs. Clemson than some realize

Beginning of the show: Some have said that the result of Georgia’s season opener vs. Clemson is unimportant. The thinking goes that whichever of the highly-ranked teams loses on Saturday is still set up well to contend for the College Football Playoff. However, I’ll explain on today’s show why the truth is more complicated than that -- for UGA in particular.

10-minute mark: I discuss the hype that’s suddenly started to grow around the Bulldogs to win the national championship.

15-minute mark: Former UGA All-American Jon Stinchomb joins the show to preview the Clemson game and to look back on a memorable win vs. the Tigers, that he played in, in 2002.

35-minute mark: I take a look at other SEC headlines including a preview of some of this weekend’s games that might fly under the radar.

End of show: I briefly preview the commitment announcement for three-star offensive lineman Jacob Hood, award a Golden shoe winner and update the Gator Hater Countdown.

After the show: I take questions and comments as part of the Podcast Cool Down.
