    Too many people to start. Finneran is the only one worth listening to. Hutson Mason is horrendous, can’t understand a word of Joe Hamm. Michaels and Leak are just not good at all. Please bring Steak and Sandra back, this really is terrible radio

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Locker Room Hour 3 (10.16.2026)
Q: How does the injury situation shape up on the defensive side of the ball for the Falcons?
Ledbetter says injuries at cornerback could leave Atlanta thin in coverage, increasing the importance of the pass rush. He expects Avion Terrell, Mike Hughes, Sydney Brown and Billy Bowman to step up and cover tightly if the rush does not reach Caleb Williams.
The Locker Room Hour 3 (10.16.2026)
Q: What does Michael Penix Jr. have to do better to win this matchup, and where can the Falcons find a way to disrupt a Ben Johnson offensive game plan?
Ledbetter says Penix should establish the run, get Bijan Robinson involved, then target Drake London and Kyle Pitts, with additional opportunities for Jahan Dotson. Against Chicago, Atlanta should disrupt the passing game by controlling Khalif Raymond and the crossing routes that convert third and fourth downs.
The Locker Room Hour 4 (10.16.2026)
Q: So what do you make of the Irish? And am I wrong? Could this actually be a 60-minute game?
Crawford expects Notre Dame to win by multiple touchdowns, citing its defense and BYU's difficulty generating explosive offensive plays, though he says a BYU win could help the Big 12 secure another playoff team.
The Locker Room Hour 4 (10.16.2026)
Q: What are the revenue conversations when a city like Atlanta is going to be missing out on a very, very big game?
Brad Crawford says the SEC and ESPN likely expect substantially higher revenue from an expanded playoff than from keeping the 12-team format and the SEC Championship Game as it is.
The Locker Room Hour 2 (10.19.2026)
Q: What does that system and that scheme that Auburn runs offensively do to you as a defensive back, trying to match up with the receivers that are 25 yards away from the football, and try to get in the game as far as making tackles, and when they spread you out like that, what does it do for you as a defensive back?
Asher Allen says Auburn used 11 personnel to draw Georgia into its nickel package, then ran the ball with an extra blocker. This forced a nickel back into a linebacker role and helped Auburn move the line of scrimmage and run effectively.
