The guest lineup for the ManningCast in Week 14 is out now. There’s going to be four guests for this week’s game. It starts with Nate Bargatze, before Will Compton and Taylor Lewan come on together. Finally, Kirk Cousins is going to round out the guests on the ManningCast.

The ManningCast, which features brothers and former NFL quarterbacks Peyton and Eli Manning, has become a popular broadcast for Monday Night Football. It’s known for its more relaxed environment and guests from various backgrounds, including the arts as well as sports.

This Monday, there will be a doubleheader of games, featuring the Tennessee Titans taking on the Miami Dolphins while the Green Bay Packers travel to take on the New York Giants.

The ManningCast will kick off at 8:13 pm EST on ESPN2. This is the third time this season that there will be two Monday Night Football games. Both of the games start at 8:15 pm EST on ESPN and ABC respectively. The plan is to have coverage of both games at the same time on the ManningCast.

The lineup opens with Nate Bargatze, a comedian with several Netflix specials who recently hosted Saturday Night Live. After that, Will Compton and Taylor Lewan are former football players known for the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast. Finally, the injured Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins will round out the night.

As it’s currently scheduled, this will be one of the final Manningcast games of the season. The brothers will have a Monday Night Football game next week before later getting to call a Wild Card Game. However, the game they call is still to be determined.

Tua Tagovailoa plays ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ on ManningCast

This week, Tua Tagovailoa will be playing on Monday Night Football. Last week, however, he was a guest on the Manningcast. There, he played ‘Sweet Home Alabama,’ prompting jokes between him and Peyton Manning over their college teams.

Peyton Manning claimed to like it, but he lashed out anyway, taking a shot at Florida State.

“I like that [Sweet Home Alabama], I respect that,” Peyton Manning said. “Florida State doesn’t like that.”

That was, of course, a reference to the College Football Playoff. Alabama jumped Florida State in the rankings, despite the Seminoles being an unbeaten Power Five Champion. So, they probably didn’t enjoy having the reminder that Alabama got a spot that they felt they earned.

When asked to play “Rocky Top,” Tua Tagovailoa declined.
