Jarom Jordan, a producer for BYUtv and play-by-play man for men's volleyball, comes on the podcast for the first time to tell us about the awesome stuff they're doing at BYUtv Sports, including whether we'll see more shows like the #BYUtop50. He also shares his thoughts on the potential of the offense.
Adam and Matt then preview the season, making the tough calls on over/unders for the stat lines of Taysom Hill, Cody Hoffman, Jamaal Williams, and Kyle Van Noy. And they go down the schedule and make predictions on the season, all while deftly answering your #Tweetbag questions.

Jay Drew of The Salt Lake Tribune returns to the podcast to discuss, first and foremost, the bad decision of putting values on the jersey instead of names, and Bronco's quick, self-deprecating reversal. He also analyzes the loss of cornerback Jordan Johnson and the progress of the new BYU offense.
Matt and Adam then give their take on the jersey debacle and what Johnson's loss could mean for the BYU season. They also discuss Johnny Football and the college football's lamest story. And inspired by BYUtv's top 50 plays TV special, they draft their favorite plays in BYU football history.

Adam and Matt then examine the following: news out of fall camp; BYU's special teams; and the chances of BYU putting together a special season. They also answer a #Tweetbag full of your questions.

BYU football media day didn't have any landmark announcements, but there was plenty to chat about. Adam and Matt discuss Bronco's contract extension and whether there's any chance he's in Provo to coach the Cougars against the USC Trojans in 2019. They also worry about BYU's chances to land good bowl games in the future. Also, why it's easier to transfer from BYU than other programs, and what movies do they plan to watch in the second half of 2013.

The podcast is back, with a long, long extended edition. We first welcome back Greg Wrubell to talk about the recruitment of non-LDS basketball players Frank Bartley and Chase Fisher. We ask Greg about what to expect from all the Cougar newcomers, and if the team will have enough depth on the frontline. We also discuss Bronco on Twitter, and if it's reasonable for BYU football fans to have high expectations for 2013. Matt and Adam then get together to cover the following: Bill Connelly's except BYU football preview here on SB Nation; Riley Nelson's recent interview on KFAN; and they do a snake draft of their favorite Marvel comic book movies. And somehow, inexplicably, Matt outgeeks Adam.

Ziggy Ansah was drafted at No. 5 to the Detroit Lions in the 2013 NFL Draft (something you probably knew). So we bring on Sean Yuille, the managing editor of SB Nation's Lions site PrideOfDetroit.com. Sean tells us his reaction to drafting Ansah that high, how fans have reacted, and what he makes of 3D glasses as a fashion accessory. Matt then joins Adam to talk about Ziggy and the draft and to speculate where Kyle Van Noy may be drafted in 2014. They also discuss Bronco Mendenhall's emergence as a Twitter superstar, and why he might be the middle-aged, white Steve Urkel. The boys also give kudos to the BYU rugby and men's volleyball teams, discuss the awesomeness of Iron Man 3, and conduct their own draft of the best BYU players in the NFL.
