Lane Kiffin, Pete Golding, Ole Miss and LSU are all major topics at SEC Media Days and neither program nor coach have even taken the stage yet.
Let's take a trip down memory lane and see if we can jog the memory of Mr. Harper just six short month ago. Minutes after the defeat in the CFP semifinals to the Miami Hurricanes, Harper said that Ole Miss was "not going backwards, only going forward." Don't take my word for it, here's the receipt:
So what's forward from a last second defeat in the semifinals? Well that would be, at minimum, an appearance in the CFP national championship.
Tim Tebow, Paul Finebaum and Roman Harper were joined by former standout Missouri quarterback Chase Daniel on the SEC Nation set at media days and Daniels was talking about the sky-high expectations of the Ole Miss fan base because they were 18 seconds away from a natty.
It was at this moment that Harper interjected and said, "They're not winning a natty.. they're not, they're Ole Miss. You'll see, you'll learn."

For those suffering from college football withdrawal, ESPN put together a list of the best college football players to wear every jersey number from 0-99.
There are some legendary names on this list that date back several decades, but 21st century stars like Tim Tebow (15), Caleb Williams (13), and Travis Hunter (12) all found their way onto this hallowed list.
Two Clemson quarterbacks made the cut for 4 and 16 respectively, as Deshaun Watson and Trevor Lawrence were both tagged as the greatest players to ever wear those numbers.
A couple of standout defensive linemen were shown love in the 90's, as Ndamukong Suh got the crown for 93 and Aaron Donald took home honors for number 97.
Who was number one, for number one? None other than Larry Fitzgerald, who usurped the likes of Kyler Murray, Ja'Marr Chase and Anthony Carter.

ESPN's college football staff recently undertook the task of naming the best college football players of all time by their jersey number. Among those listed was the Florida Gators' all-time great quarterback, Tim Tebow, who wore No. 15 during his epic collegiate career.
"There's a case to be made for Tebow as the single greatest college football player ever. There are the numbers: 145 career touchdowns, more than 13,000 career yards, an SEC-record 57 rushing touchdowns. There are the awards: He was a Heisman finalist three times and was the first sophomore ever to win it in 2007. There are the wins: Tebow was a critical part of Florida's 2006 ****** le as Chris Leak's backup, then he won one of his own in 2008.
"But what truly sets Tebow apart is the mythology. From his 'promise' speech after the 2008 loss to Ole Miss, which is now immortalized on a statue, to the legendary jump pass against LSU to the raw determination with which he led — he might not be the best to ever strap on a helmet, but there's definitely no one else like him."
Tebow beat out Purdue Boilermakers QB Drew Brees, Nebraska Cornhuskers QB Tommie Frazier and QB Fernando Mendoza, who played for both the Cal Golden Bears and Indiana Hoosiers.
Heisman Trophy, two-time Maxwell Award, Davey O'Brien Award, Manning Award, three-time All-American, two-time SEC Male Athlete of the Year, two-time national champion, BCS championship game MVP and College Football Hall of Fame.

Former Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay has high expectations for the team following their appearance in the AFC Championship game in 2025. However, oddsmakers currently are not looking highly on the Broncos as Super Bowl contenders, as 11 teams have better odds than Denver to win it all this season.
"BB, that's disrespectful, man; that's straight disrespect from the oddsmakers there," Lindsay said on Denver Sports 104.3 The Fan. "And I understand why. You had a bunch of one-point games that you win. You say, 'Hey, they're not going to do that again.' If they're in these tight games, it's not gonna always be where the Denver Broncos pull it out and they win. And Bo Nix has that magic like Tim Tebow used to have.
"But also, it's like for the oddsmakers, what are you looking at? This team is well-put together. This team is back and you have a lot of the same players; actually pretty much every player that was there last year is back. And then you added Jaylen Waddle to the mix, who's this dynamic weapon that's explosive... (with everyone returning) the Denver Broncos should be the favorite to win the ***** Super Bowl!"
You can see the entire clip from Lindsay below.
Outside of a brutal six-game stretch to start the season, there is no reason the Broncos cannot return to the top of the AFC playoff picture, in contention to compete for a Super Bowl in 2026.

Arch Manning was among the most hyped up players for the 2025 college football season, with **** ysts even projecting him to be the No. 1 overall pick in 2026 NFL Draft, win the Heisman Trophy, and even lead the Longhorns to a national championship.
Peyton Manning, who is regarded as a Tennessee Volunteers legend, is also an uncle to Arch, which is why the Super Bowl Champ’s support is always a point of curiosity for fans.
Talking about whether he’ll support Tennessee or Texas in the upcoming 2026 college football season, Peyton told the reporters at Manning Passing Academy on June 26th, 2026.
“Obviously, it’s going to be a huge SEC game. My dad dealt with it when I was in college when Tennessee played Ole Miss, We don’t really touch those topics in our family group chat… I love my university and alma mater – love them both unconditionally… but nothing’s more important to me than my family,” Peyton said. “When you have a nephew playing, I pull very hard for him every single Saturday so that’s pretty much a no-brainer that you’re pulling for your nephew to play well.”
Analysts like Paul Finebaum projected Arch to be the next Tim Tebow, predicting him to be one of the best college football players the game would see in over a decade.
