SEC TEAM PREVIEWS 2025: Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Ole Miss, LSU, Missouri, Kentucky & Missisippi State | College Football Podcast

We dive deep into the SEC's upper crust with our first of two comprehensive preview episodes, breaking down eight of the conference's most talented and high-expectation teams. From Texas's national championship aspirations and the beginning of the Arch Manning era to Alabama's loaded roster under Kalen DeBoer and a revamped offense for Georgia under Kirby Smart, we explore the teams most likely to compete for SEC titles and playoff spots. In this college football podcast episode, we analyze Texas as the preseason No. 1 team and whether Arch Manning can navigate one of the toughest road schedules in the country, including trips to Ohio State, Florida, and Georgia. We examine Alabama's quarterback battle between Ty Simpson, Austin Mack, and Keelon Russell, plus the reunion of Kalen DeBoer with longtime coordinator Ryan Grubb. We discuss Georgia's search for offensive star power with Gunner Stockton at the helm and their favorable SEC schedule. We also break down Ole Miss's "nothing to lose" mentality with Austin Simmons taking over for Jaxson Dart, LSU's all-in approach with Garrett Nussmeier and their loaded but unproven receiver room, and Dan's Big Ten-to-SEC quarterback theory with Beau Pribula at Missouri. Plus, we examine Kentucky's massive roster overhaul under Mark Stoops with 40+ new players and Mississippi State's uphill climb in Jeff Lebby's second season after going 0-8 in SEC play. This is your guide to the SEC's championship contenders and the key questions that will determine their 2025 fates, with eight more teams coming in our next episode!
