What's with Arch Manning Mania? + Oklahoma-Tennessee preview w/ Dusty Dvoracek

Until Saturday: A show about college football

Arch Manning hasn't started a game (yet), but he's one of the most recognizable names in all of college football. David Ubben and Sam Khan Jr. unpack the Manning craze and discuss if Arch is as good as people think. Later, ex-Sooner and ESPN analyst Dusty Dvorcek joins David in breaking down Oklahoma's SEC debut versus Tennessee. Can Brent Venables defense slow down the Vols' run game? What does Dusty make of Arnold? Nico? Later, Tennessee is instituting a 10% "talent tax" on its ticket sales in 2025. OH, BOY. David and Sam aren't having it. Lastly, a jaunty round of 'Whose line is it?'
