SEC Spring Game Takeaways from Every Game This Past Weekend, Mark Pope Introduced at Kentucky

On today's show, we are bringing you our takeaways from all EIGHT SEC Spring Games that took place this past Saturday. We start with Alabama, as we were very impressed with new wrinkles from Kalen DeBoer, and the run game looks to be dominant led by Jam Miller, Richard Young & Justice Haynes. Jalen Milroe has weapons everywhere, and the defense should be solid. Meanwhile, Georgia is loaded again as QB Carson Beck is back - I like what I saw from Dillon Bell, Oscar Delp and Lawson Luckie. Trevor Etienne will be a stud at RB for them, and Mykel Williams and CJ Allen are back to wreak havoc defensively. At Florida, Graham Mertz is the veteran back at QB, but DJ Lagway certainly is impressive for being an early enrollee freshman. Trey Wilson is ready to be the go-to at WR, and Pup Howard on defense is fun to watch. For LSU, they should be an offensive machine again this time led by QB Garrett Nussmeier with weapons in Kyren Lacy and Zavion Thomas - but can the LSU defense be improved over last year?

In Knoxville, we saw Nico Iamaleava pick up where he left off for the Vols, Chris Brazzell will be another weapon to add to their arsenal. Can the Vols defense improve with a freshman stuf in Boo Carter, and rising LB in Edwin Spillman? I know it's just a Spring Game, but I love what we saw at Arkansas in new QB Taylen Green. Bobby Petrino has two awesome weapons in Green and transfer RB Ja'Quinden Jackson - get used to those names. At Kentucky, even though their game wasn't televised, we got to see clips and takeaways which said QB Brock Vandagriff was impressive connecting with Dane Key and Khamari Anderson. Tempo has been the key this offseason for the Wildcats. And Ole Miss held their Spring Game which was more "games" which included a dunk contest, tug of war, hog dog eating with Joey Chestnutt, and a flag football style game that QB Jaxson Dart get in some work following lower leg surgery this offseason.

Lastly, we touch on Kentucky basketball selling out Rupp Arena for a PRESS CONFERENCE as they introduced their new head coach in Mark Pope. Will Mark Pope win a title at UK? We don't know, but give the UK alum credit for not shying away from expectations in Lexington.
