Who are college football's top 25 coaches? USA TODAY recently released its rankings, and, in a bit of a stunning development, Tennessee's Josh Heupel was nearly left off the list entirely. He checked in at No. 24. Hey, don't blame us. On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and John Adams examine the case for Heupel being the SEC's most underrated coach. Toppmeyer had a ballot in USA TODAY's coach-ranking project. He discloses where he ranked Heupel and explains his surprise that his colleagues view Heupel so differently. He also offers another SEC coach he believes is underrated in the USA TODAY list. Adams agrees with Toppmeyer that Heupel is vastly underrated in this USA TODAY pecking order, but Adams lightly pushes back on where Toppmeyer ranked Lane Kiffin. Adams would've voted Kiffin a little bit higher than his cohost did, but Adams didn't get a vote. Adams tasks Toppmeyer with securing him a ballot for the vote in 2027.

Tim Brando had time for Lane Kiffin on Wednesday, taking issue with Kiffin's comments on Ole Miss in a released Vanity Fair article this weekAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
The conversation shifts to college sports as the guys react to recent comments from Lane Kiffin about difficulties recruiting players to Ole Miss because of the culture surrounding the school and area. Hollywood and Alex Donno push back on Kiffin's remarks, criticizing the way he left the program and accusing him of taking unnecessary shots at a school he once represented. They describe Kiffin as “vile” and “toxic,” questioning his leadership style and whether his public comments reflect poorly on him and college coaching overall. The segment also touches on how coaches handle recruiting pressure in the modern NIL era and the growing tension surrounding major college programs.
Jake Coker and Mick Gillespie are back with a wild mix of college football talk, competitive eating stories, NIL drama and celebrity encounters. Mick shares the unbelievable story of officiating a bologna-eating contest where Joey Chestnut crushed 16 pounds of bologna in eight minutes to set a new world record. The guys also revisit Chestnut's rivalry with Kobayashi, including Joey's dominant 83-66 win in their 2024 Netflix showdown. Then the conversation shifts to college football, where Alabama's win total is getting attention. MGM has the Crimson Tide set at 8.5 wins, but is that too low for Kalen DeBoer's team — or realistic with Georgia, Tennessee, LSU and a brutal SEC schedule ahead? Jake and Mick also discuss Alabama landing four-star linebacker Kenneth Simon II, the positive buzz around Kane Wommack's defense, and what Jake is hearing through the grapevine about the Crimson Tide. Plus, the guys break down Lane Kiffin's Vanity Fair comments on Ole Miss, his move to LSU, the pressure inside Baton Rouge and whether LSU's NIL machine can help Kiffin finally challenge Alabama at the top of the SEC. Also on the show: Mick's Tim Burchett story, UFO disclosure talk, the cutthroat NIL landscape, schools struggling to meet financial guarantees and Arkansas cutting its men's and women's tennis programs. Topics include: Alabama Football, Kalen DeBoer, Kane Wommack, Lane Kiffin, LSU Football, Ole Miss, Joey Chestnut, Kobayashi, Tim Burchett, NIL, SEC Football, Arkansas athletics cuts and more. #AlabamaFootball #secfootball #collegefootball #cfb #RollTide #JakeCoker #LaneKiffin #LSUFootball #JoeyChestnut #SECFootball #CollegeFootball #NIL #TheNextRound SUBSCRIBE: @NextRoundLive - / @nextroundlive 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 Sponsor the show: sales@nextroundlive.com Learn more about your ad choices.
