TNG Podcast: S2, Ep3 - Week 1 Preview
It's game week! Tune in to the Pod to get ready for the opening weekend
It’s finally time to talk about actual games, with the new season kicking off just over 48 hrs from now! We’ve waited eight months and we finally made it.
On this week’s show, we’ll talk through some of the changes we made to our coverage, we’ll reset why we do what we do, we’ll run through our Preseason Top 25 one last time, and then we’ll dive off into our Week 1 Preview. We’ll cover the Top 10 games as identified by our model and then we’ll break down the top four games in detail before going around the state to highlight some other fascinating matchups.
As always, you can find our Podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts, and we’ll also be uploading each episode (audio only for now) on our YouTube channel. Please subscribe, comment, rate and ‘like’ the Pod on those sites to help elevate it in the search engines of each platform.
