Out of the Box

The podcast is back after another road trip! Tom Canterbury and Gray Robertson are here to discuss everything you need to know about Alabama, the SEC, and much more in a new episode. Here's your trip around the bases:

At the Plate (0:00-29:58): Tom and Gray start by talking about the good, meh, and bad from the series in Fayetteville and what needs to happen as the regular season winds down. Then, the guys preview a home matchup against SEC leader Tennessee.

Advancing to First (30:08-57:41): The guys go through the SEC’s wild week, including a low-scoring battle in Knoxville, Florida’s offensive explosion, Georgia important Saturday, Kentucky’s road series win, and more.

Stealing Second (57:55-1:25:39): Alabama legend and Rally Cap co-host Haylie McCleney makes her official podcast debut and discusses about how she landed on the SEC Network, how being in the media has changed the way she watches games, thoughts on Alabama, the mindset of a hitter, what makes Pickens and Gottshall such a tough duo for Tennessee, her favorite songs from the new Taylor Swift album, and plenty more.

Rounding Third (1:25:47-1:45:26): Bracketology is back! Gray gives out his updated Top 16 seeds and answers a few of Tom’s burning questions. Then, the guys look at big games this week and pick the ACL Player of the Week.

Heading Home (1:45:33-2:22:55): To close the show, Tom and Gray present SEC picks for this week. Then, it’s another “Off the Wall” that addresses spammy complaints, creepy old men, and the right to remain silent. Finally, “Tom’s Hungry” returns after an epic food trip to Fayetteville.
