Georgia football podcast: ESPN warns UGA about Appalachian State

Beginning of the show: ESPN writer Alex Scarbrough recently wrote that a winning September for Georgia means not overlooking its season opener vs. Appalachian State. Based on UGA coach Kirby Smart's comments from Monday, UGA looking past the Mountaineers seems unlikely. I'll talk more about this subject on today's show.

15-minute mark: DawgNation's Jeff Sentell joins the show. Some of the topics discussed include…

  • Why 5-star quarterback Justin Fields was in Athens, Ga. over the weekend
  • UGA's decision to extend a preferred walk-on offer to Fields' high school teammate, wide receiver Stephen Peterson
  • 4-star linebacker Adam Anderson's 3.5 sack performance for Rome against Fields and Harrison on Friday
  • The chances UGA takes another recruiting look at two of Anderson's teammates — defensive ends Jamarcus Chatman and Jaquon Griffin
  • 5-star offensive guard Jamaree Salyer's upcoming visit to Athens, Ga. to see the Bulldogs vs. Appalachian State

35-minute mark: I take a look at some other SEC headlines including LSU's game vs. BYU being moved to New Orleans, La., the gamesmanship from Florida coach Jim McElwain and Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh ahead of the showdown between the Gators and Wolverines on Saturday, and some questions emerging about whether some recruiting losses from McElwain could hurt his team this season.

End of show: I update the Gator Hater Countdown.
