Ten weeks ago, the general consensus was Swansea City were in a relegation battle. Thirteen games later, has new manager Vitor Matos transformed the team into Championship play-off contenders? A comfortable 4-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday leaves the Swans just five points adrift of the top six, but four games against team above them in the table await.Wrexham failed to give owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac a win to mark five years at the helm by slipping up at home to Millwall. Attention now turns to the fourth round of the FA Cup against Ipswich Town.No such problems for Cardiff City, who shrugged off the 20th-minute red card to Ryan Wintle to win 3-0 at Rotherham, a display described by Iwan as one of the best he can recall by a team with 10 men.

In this NBA Opinions of the Week, Kevin and Austin discuss the Cleveland Cavaliers trading for James Harden and how it makes the Cavs contenders. Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Graham Doty and Chris Lee share Southeastern 16's initial power rankings for the 2026 SEC baseball season. Topics include: Do LSU and Texas's pitching and portal additions separate those squads from the rest of the league? Or do other teams--Mississippi State, in particular--belong in that conversation, too? How does Tennessee do without Tony Vitello and Frank Anderson? The Vols still have talent but perhaps not the experience they had in previous years. Are Auburn and Florida sneaky title contenders? Does Arkansas take a step back, or will top-end pitching have the Razorbacks contending? Are Vanderbilt, Texas A&M, Alabama and Kentucky sleepers? And what about Ole Miss with the pitching it added in the transfer portal, or Oklahoma with so many returning lineup pieces? All that, and a lot more, in our preseason power rankings!

Power Rankings and regional favorites. 

Welcome to Episode 136 of Tablesetters! Steve and Devin are back as we continue our deep dive into all things baseball, and today we're thrilled to welcome back Ben Upton, co-founder and host of 11Point7, one of the most trusted voices covering the college baseball landscape. Ben last joined us on Episode 59 in February 2025, when college baseball felt like it was standing on the edge of something bigger. One year later, heading into the 2026 season, that momentum hasn't slowed. If anything, it's intensified, with portal movement reshaping rosters, NIL becoming more structured, national exposure increasing, and a preseason Top 25 that feels deeper and more volatile than ever. We kick things off by revisiting that conversation from last year and asking Ben what the biggest tangible change has been now that another full season is in the books. Is it the way programs like LSU, Tennessee, and Georgia reload annually, the speed and scale of roster turnover through the portal, or the way fans now follow college baseball on a truly national level? From there, we dive into the 2026 preseason picture. UCLA opens the year at No. 1 behind returning Player of the Year Roch Cholowsky, while LSU chases history, Mississippi State reboots under Brian O'Connor, Georgia Tech brings back its ACC core, and Coastal Carolina enters the year with one of the best pitching staffs in the country. Ben breaks down whether this season represents real parity or simply an unusually strong upper tier and which team is best positioned to take control if UCLA stumbles. Hot topics include the loaded Player of the Year race featuring Cholowsky, Drew Burress, Derek Curiel, Ace Reese, and Justin Lebron, how Ben evaluates award races beyond raw production, and whether 2026 is shaping up to be a pitcher-driven season with arms like Cameron Flukey, Jackson Flora, Casan Evans, Dax Whitney, and Tommy LaPour headlining the conversation. The discussion expands to teams just outside the rankings, Texas A&M's prove-it season, and the growing trend of college coaches moving into MLB roles. Ben shares his thoughts on Tony Vitello's jump to the Giants, other recent staff departures to the pro ranks, and whether this movement can officially be called a trend. We also hit mid-majors capable of making real noise, conference realignment growing pains, potential structural changes to the MLB Draft and minor leagues, and what that could mean for college baseball's future. Before we wrap, we close with quick hitters, including one team Ben is higher on than the rankings, one he's more skeptical of, a player casual fans will be talking about by April, the pitcher he trusts most in a winner-take-all game, and his early “Eight for Omaha” pick.
