Next Episode: Why Nick Saban is whining about Alabama's possible rivals; plus, who got snubbed in SEC hoops awards?

LSU is the SEC West's most well-rounded team, but don't expect the conference's preseason media poll to reflect that.

Not since 2012 have sportswriters who cover the SEC picked a team other than Alabama to win the West. Usually, Alabama is a smart choice, but the Crimson Tide faces more questions than usual this offseason – including, who is the quarterback? Meanwhile, LSU has a proven quarterback and a coach coming off a win over Nick Saban.

On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and John Adams offer their SEC dark horses and overhyped teams, as we sit six months from kickoff of the 2023 season.
