TNR 9/17/26 | QB Advantage: Auburn Tigers or Florida Gators? Alabama is Back to Health Sep 17, 2026

Show notes

Alabama vs. Florida State, Auburn vs. Florida, LSU vs. Ole Miss and the latest SEC injury news headline a loaded LIVE college football show! 🏈 ALABAMA GETTING HEALTHIER FOR FLORIDA STATE The Alabama Crimson Tide gets a major boost ahead of its rematch with the Florida State Seminoles as starting right guard Michael Carroll is expected to return after missing Alabama’s win at Kentucky. How much does getting Carroll back change the outlook for Kalen DeBoer, Keelon Russell and the Crimson Tide offense? Alabama also has revenge on its mind after Florida State’s 31-17 win over the Tide to open the 2025 season. 🐅 ALEX GOLESH CHALLENGES AUBURN’S SPECIAL TEAMS Auburn opens SEC play against the Florida Gators at Jordan-Hare Stadium, and special teams could become one of the biggest factors in the game. Florida playmaker Vernell Brown III returned two punts for touchdowns against Campbell, and Alex Golesh has emphasized the importance of Auburn winning those hidden-yardage battles. Can the Tigers keep Florida from flipping the game with an explosive special-teams play? 🔥 WHO HAS THE QUARTERBACK ADVANTAGE: AUBURN OR FLORIDA? It’s Byrum Brown vs. Aaron Philo in one of the most intriguing quarterback matchups of the SEC weekend. Brown brings significantly more experience into Auburn’s conference opener, while Philo has been extremely productive through Florida’s first two games. Which quarterback is better equipped to handle the pressure when the Tigers and Gators meet under the lights at Jordan-Hare Stadium? 🐯 DOES OLE MISS REALLY BELIEVE SAM LEAVITT IS HURT? The drama surrounding LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt continues ahead of Lane Kiffin’s return to Oxford. Leavitt was officially listed as doubtful on LSU’s first SEC availability report with a sore throwing shoulder — but ESPN’s Pete Thamel reported that no one on the Ole Miss staff is convinced the designation is sincere or that Leavitt will actually miss Saturday’s game. Is LSU dealing with a legitimate quarterback injury, or should Ole Miss prepare as if Leavitt will be behind center? 🐔 SOUTH CAROLINA GETS ENCOURAGING INJURY NEWS The Gamecocks could be getting two major reinforcements just in time for SEC play. Star edge rusher Dylan Stewart and transfer offensive tackle Jacarrius Peak were both listed as probable for South Carolina’s matchup against Mississippi State after missing the first two games of the season. We break down all of those storylines, the biggest SEC matchups of the weekend, quarterback battles, injury reports, coaching comments and everything else you need to know around college football. Join the conversation LIVE and let us know: Auburn or Florida at quarterback? Do you believe LSU’s Sam Leavitt injury report? And what should we expect from Alabama in its rematch with Florida State? 11:30 CT - Danny Kanell 📺 Subscribe to The Next Round for daily LIVE coverage of SEC football, college football, Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Ole Miss, Florida, the College Football Playoff, NFL news, betting discussion and more. #CollegeFootball #cfb #SECfootball #sec #secnews #AlabamaFootball #alabama #crimsontide #rolltide #AuburnFootball #auburntigers #wareagle #FloridaGators #LSUFootball #OleMissFootball #FloridaStateFootball #SouthCarolinaFootball #CFBNews SUBSCRIBE: @NextRoundLive - youtube.com/@nextroundlive @TNRClips - youtube.com/@TNRClips FOLLOW TNR ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/7zlofzLZht7dYxjNcBNpWN FOLLOW TNR ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-next-round/id1797862560 WEBSITE: https://nextroundlive.com/ MOBILE APP: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-next-round/id1580807480 SHOP THE NEXT ROUND STORE: https://nextround.store/ Like TNR on Facebook: / nextroundlive Follow TNR on Twitter: / nextroundlive Follow TNR on Instagram: / nextroundlive Follow everyone from the show on Twitter: Jim Dunaway: / jimdunaway Ryan Brown: / ryanbrownlive Lance Taylor: / thelancetaylor Scott Forester: / scottforestertv Tyler Johns: /TylerJohnsTNR Brooks Carter: /BrooksACarter Sponsor the show: sales@nextroundlive.com

Show notes

LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt is officially listed as DOUBTFUL for a massive Top-10 showdown with Ole Miss — but does anyone really believe we’re getting the full story from Lane Kiffin and LSU?

TNR on Sport & State 9/17/26 - Hour 1 | Sam Leavitt DOUBTFUL vs Ole Miss?! Sep 17, 2026

Show notes

🔥 SAM LEAVITT DOUBTFUL FOR LSU vs. OLE MISS?! The biggest storyline surrounding No. 7 LSU’s trip to face No. 8 Ole Miss suddenly has nothing to do with Lane Kiffin’s return to Oxford. LSU starting quarterback Sam Leavitt was listed as doubtful on the SEC availability report after reportedly dealing with an issue involving his throwing shoulder. Leavitt did not throw during Wednesday’s practice, despite showing no obvious signs of an injury during LSU’s 45-14 win over Louisiana Tech. We break down Leavitt’s status, what LSU could look like without him against Ole Miss, and whether there is any reason to question the messaging surrounding Kiffin’s starting quarterback entering one of the biggest games of the college football weekend.

🐊 HOW CLOSE WAS JON SUMRALL TO BECOMING AUBURN’S COACH? Florida travels to Auburn this weekend with one of the most interesting coaching-carousel “what ifs” of the young season. Before Florida hired Jon Sumrall and Auburn ultimately landed Alex Golesh, Sumrall was heavily connected to the Auburn opening. Florida’s own reporting this week described Sumrall as having done some serious flirting with the Tigers, while several people with Auburn connections believed he was headed to the Plains. Just how close did Auburn come to hiring the man who will be standing on the opposite sideline Saturday night?

Last Call | Jake Coker Breaks Down Keelon Russell: What Alabama Must Fix Before Florida State Sep 16, 2026

Show notes

Former Alabama national championship quarterback Jake Coker joins Mick Gillispie for another episode of Last Call to break down Alabama football after the Crimson Tide’s 45-17 SEC road win over Kentucky — from Keelon Russell’s quarterback play and Alabama’s evolving rushing attack to Kane Wommack’s aggressive defense and the upcoming showdown with Florida State.How should Alabama fans evaluate Keelon Russell after his first SEC road start?Russell finished the Kentucky game 16-of-23 for 188 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions, but the box score only tells part of the story. Jake takes viewers inside the quarterback position and explains how play-calling, protection, practice performance and a coaching staff’s confidence in its personnel can shape what a young quarterback is being asked to do.Drawing from his own experience playing quarterback at Alabama under Nick Saban and Lane Kiffin, Coker breaks down Russell’s decision-making, throwing angles near the goal line, reading defensive looks, RPO execution and the mistakes that Alabama must clean up as the schedule gets tougher.The guys also take a closer look at the Alabama running back room. Daniel Hill delivered a career-high 104 rushing yards against Kentucky, while talented young backs EJ Crowell and Kevin Riley continue to give the Crimson Tide different options in the backfield. Jake explains what he sees from Hill’s physical running style, Crowell’s explosiveness and Riley’s ability to make plays in space.Then it’s time to talk Kane Wommack and the Alabama defense.The Crimson Tide held Kentucky to 209 total yards and just 1-of-14 on third down, with several Alabama defenders making major impacts. Caleb Woodson led the defense with 12 tackles and two sacks, while freshman linebacker Luke Metz delivered one of the biggest plays of the game with a 34-yard pick-six. Jake also discusses Red Morgan, Dre Kirkpatrick Jr. and the speed, communication and aggression Alabama is showing defensively — even drawing comparisons to the dominant 2016 Alabama defense he remembers from his playing days.But Alabama still has plenty to correct offensively.Jake explains the details behind RPOs, illegal receiver downfield penalties, offensive-line timing and quarterback execution, plus shares a hilarious story from his Alabama career involving an unintended throw that nearly drilled center Ryan Kelly against Wisconsin.Finally, Mick and Jake turn their attention toward Alabama vs. Florida State and the betting market. With Alabama sitting around a 19.5-point favorite at the time of recording, Mick tries to get Jake to reveal the pick from his betting syndicate — but Jake saves the official selection for Thursday while discussing a group he says is up 16 units on the season.🏈 Topics include:Keelon Russell • Alabama Football • Alabama vs Kentucky • Alabama vs Florida State • Jake Coker • Kalen DeBoer • Kane Wommack • Luke Metz • Caleb Woodson • Daniel Hill • EJ Crowell • Kevin Riley • Alabama defense • Alabama offense • SEC Football • College Football • betting linesThis episode of Last Call also features our partners at Pearl River Resort, Patriot Roofing and Builders, and Residence Inn by Marriott Ocean City.👍 If you enjoy Alabama football analysis, SEC football discussion and insight from a former Crimson Tide national championship quarterback, LIKE this video and SUBSCRIBE for more episodes of Last Call and The Next Round.#AlabamaFootball #RollTide #KeelonRussell #JakeCoker #CrimsonTide #Alabama #alabamacrimsontide #sec #secnews #SECfootball #CollegeFootball #cfb #cfbnews #KalenDeBoer #KaneWommack #FloridaState #AlabamaFSU #LastCall #TheNextRound SUBSCRIBE:@NextRoundLive - youtube.com/@nextroundlive@TNRClips - youtube.com/@TNRClipsFOLLOW TNR ON SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/7zlofzLZht7dYxjNcBNpWNFOLLOW TNR ON APPLE PODCASTS: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-next-round/id1797862560WEBSITE: https://nextroundlive.com/MOBILE APP: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-next-round/id1580807480SHOP THE NEXT ROUND STORE: https://nextround.store/Like TNR on Facebook: / nextroundlive Follow TNR on Twitter: / nextroundlive Follow TNR on Instagram: / nextroundlive Follow everyone from the show on Twitter:Jim Dunaway: / jimdunaway Ryan Brown: / ryanbrownlive Lance Taylor: / thelancetaylor Scott Forester: / scottforestertv Tyler Johns: /TylerJohnsTNRBrooks Carter: /BrooksACarterSponsor the show: sales@nextroundlive.com

TNR 9/16/26 - Hour 4 | Alabama QB Keelon Russell at His BEST? Sep 16, 2026

Show notes

🔥 WHEN IS KEELON RUSSELL AT HIS BEST? Alabama QB Keelon Russell has already shown the high-end talent that made him one of college football’s most anticipated young quarterbacks, but what conditions allow him to play his best football? After an uneven start at Kentucky that included two interceptions, Russell settled in as Alabama took control in the second half of a 45-17 win. We break down what helps Russell find rhythm, how the Crimson Tide can keep him comfortable, and what Alabama needs from its young quarterback as the schedule gets tougher. 🐘 IS FLORIDA STATE A REVENGE GAME FOR ALABAMA? Florida State stunned Alabama 31-17 in Tallahassee to open the 2025 season. Now the Seminoles come to Tuscaloosa for the rematch. Kalen DeBoer may not want his team focused on revenge, but can Alabama really treat this like just another game? We discuss the emotional edge, what last year’s loss still means, and why this matchup could tell us plenty about the 2026 Crimson Tide.

TNR 9/16/26 - Hour 3 | Auburn’s KEY to BEATING Florida & Our Weekly SEC POWER Rankings! Sep 16, 2026

Show notes

📊 WEEKLY SEC POWER RATING

It’s time to stack up the Southeastern Conference again. Who is rising? Who is slipping? Which teams have actually earned their place after two weeks, and which resumes still need more proof? We update our SEC Power Rating and debate the biggest movers across the league.

🦅 AUBURN vs. FLORIDA — UNLEASH BYRUM BROWN?

Auburn is 2-0, but there may still be another level for Alex Golesh’s offense. Is the key letting Byrum Brown become a bigger factor with his legs? Brown rushed for 88 yards against Southern Miss after being held to 27 against Baylor. Against the Florida Gators, could his dual-threat ability be the piece that stresses the defense and unlocks the Tigers’ offense?

TNR on Sport & State 9/16/26 - Hour 2 | Big Ten Trying Mind Games With SEC? Sep 16, 2026

Show notes

🚨 LIVE COLLEGE FOOTBALL TALK:

LSU vs. Ole Miss is already turning into a chess match, college football roster spending is exploding, the Big Ten has some explaining to do with this week’s schedule, and are we judging Texas QB Arch Manning by a completely different standard than every other quarterback in the country?

Which draft-eligible college QBs look like sure-fire NFL QBs?

💰 HOW MUCH DOES A COLLEGE FOOTBALL ROSTER REALLY COST?

College football’s roster-building arms race continues to accelerate.

Reporting from The Athletic has highlighted just how dramatically the market has changed, with industry figures saying elite 2026 rosters are now reaching the $35 million to $40 million-plus range when revenue sharing and outside NIL compensation are considered.

What does that mean for the future of the sport? Can programs realistically keep escalating spending every offseason? And are we reaching the point where success in college football requires a roster budget that looks more like professional sports?

TNR on Sport & State 9/16/26 - Hour 1 | Ole Miss Playing MIND GAMES With LSU? Sep 16, 2026

Show notes

🔥 OLE MISS vs. LSU — ARE THE REBELS PLAYING MIND GAMES?

Lane Kiffin’s return to Oxford with LSU was already one of the biggest storylines of the college football season, but now the familiarity between these two programs adds another fascinating layer.

Ole Miss head coach Pete Golding acknowledged this week that the Rebels have to disguise signals, change terminology and use multiple methods of communication against an LSU staff that knows so much about how Ole Miss operates.
