Longshore and McKnight hosts ESPN college football analyst Tom Luginbill

In today’s episode of “Longshore and McKnight” presented by Yellowhammer News, John Longshore and Barry McKnight dive right into Auburn’s offensive woes, why the Tigers only managed a single touchdown and questioning if the team’s ongoing struggles hint at deeper issues under head coach Hugh Freeze. They also tipped their hats to the Troy Trojans, who celebrated homecoming with a big win over Coastal Carolina. Special Olympians from the area were honored guests at the game, adding a touch of local pride to the victory.

John and Barry also looked ahead to the first College Football Playoff rankings, speculating about what the committee might do with unpredictable teams like Indiana, BYU, and Boise State. With big national upsets shaking things up, they shared insights on how this season is far from predictable—and why fans should buckle up for more surprises.

 


The episode wraps with a nod to the opening of college basketball season, thoughts with Tom Luginbill on how fan behavior has crossed the line recently, and a lively announcement of the Dreamland pick-three winner.
