- 2:44Speaker 2: All right.
- 2:45Speaker 3: Uh, The New Orleans Saints take on the San Francisco
- 2:48Speaker 3: forty nine ers coming up this week, and the Saints
- 2:51Speaker 3: will be facing off against a backup quarterback. Brock Party
- 2:55Speaker 3: is going to miss. Uh, you know, timetable like two
- 2:58Speaker 3: to five weeks. I'm like that's good, that's big window there,
- 3:02Speaker 3: but that's what we pay you a lot of money.
- 3:04Speaker 3: Dot can you just give us like maybe a two
- 3:05Speaker 3: week window. So if these Saints do face off against
- 3:10Speaker 3: a backup quarterback, it's going to be.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Mcquirkle Oh boy, mac.
- 3:15Speaker 3: Jones is going to be the quarterback there for the
- 3:17Speaker 3: forty nine ers. So look, if you're the Saints, I'm
- 3:21Speaker 3: not saying you're sitting over here hoping for injuries, but
- 3:24Speaker 3: if you could pick two guys for San Francisco to
- 3:26Speaker 3: be out Brock Perdy, George Kittle, probably probably two that yeah,
- 3:30Speaker 3: probably the two that you would hope would miss the competition.
- 3:34Speaker 3: So it's a great opportunity. And again, like I don't
- 3:39Speaker 3: think the Saints are in a position to be like
- 3:41Speaker 3: we want your best shot, We really want your starters
- 3:43Speaker 3: in now, if you can get the starting quarterback to
- 3:45Speaker 3: miss one and your absolute best tight end in the league,
- 3:49Speaker 3: game changing guy that is single handedly one games before,
- 3:52Speaker 3: yeah you take that, You take that.
- 3:53Speaker 4: We don't need their best shot. Yeah, we'll just take
- 3:55Speaker 4: their mediocre shot.
- 3:57Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 3:58Speaker 3: So this was about fifteen minutes ago. Brock Party will
- 4:03Speaker 3: miss two to five weeks with a form of turf toe.
- 4:08Speaker 3: So like I believe, I believe yesterday the messaging was
- 4:12Speaker 3: it was going to be a long shot that brock
- 4:15Speaker 3: Party could play, and it felt like he wasn't going
- 4:17Speaker 3: to play. But yeah, two to five weeks with turftoe,
- 4:19Speaker 3: a form of turf toe is what we're seeing there.
- 4:22Speaker 3: So you're preparing for mag Jones and again, like if
- 4:27Speaker 3: you were the Saints, like for two people to be
- 4:29Speaker 3: out for the forty nine ers. I mean, those are
- 4:31Speaker 3: two people obviously major, major players, and you know, Kittle's
- 4:36Speaker 3: a mismatch no matter who you are. So we'll see
- 4:39Speaker 3: if you know, Juwan Jennings can get back on the field.
- 4:41Speaker 3: He's questionable for this game. Obviously a very talented receiver,
- 4:45Speaker 3: but it's the quarterback, man, it's the quarterback position that
- 4:48Speaker 3: we're going to talk about here. The line went from
- 4:50Speaker 3: seven and a half to three and a half with.
- 4:52Speaker 2: This news today.
- 4:53Speaker 3: Let's go so we got actually, look, it's a great
- 4:55Speaker 3: opportunity for the Saints.
- 4:58Speaker 2: You got to get get some wins, you.
- 5:00Speaker 4: Got, yeah, and an opportunity presents this at home.
- 5:04Speaker 3: Their quarterbacks hurt. I think, I know you could say
- 5:08Speaker 3: Christian McCaffrey. I still think George Kittle is the best
- 5:10Speaker 3: player and he's just an animal.
- 5:13Speaker 2: I would agree with you.
- 5:15Speaker 3: So they're down quarterback and their best player, you have
- 5:18Speaker 3: them at home. You're searching for a victory any way
- 5:22Speaker 3: you can. This year, this is a great opportunity for you.
- 5:25Speaker 4: Not only is Kittle, I think their best player, but
- 5:28Speaker 4: the guy that brings a lot of juice and energy
- 5:31Speaker 4: and just that.
- 5:35Speaker 2: Crazy meat pisson vinegar, pisson vinegar. Would you call it?
- 5:39Speaker 4: One time, crazy white boy energy, Just he just brings
- 5:42Speaker 4: that to the table. So if you've missed that, it's
- 5:44Speaker 4: missing a big piece of you, not only not only physically,
- 5:46Speaker 4: but emotionally out there as well. So if the Saints,
- 5:50Speaker 4: like any good teams, and we're not claiming that right
- 5:54Speaker 4: now for the Saints, but it's the NFL when when
- 5:58Speaker 4: an opportunity presents.
- 5:59Speaker 2: Itself, you have to take advantage.
- 6:01Speaker 4: So when you're starting quarterback and your best players not playing,
- 6:04Speaker 4: and you're playing at the Dome, it kind of becomes
- 6:07Speaker 4: a must win situation.
- 6:08Speaker 2: You got you gotta pick this one off. So we'll
- 6:12Speaker 2: see what happens.
- 6:13Speaker 4: And you got mac Jones coming in of course, A
- 6:15Speaker 4: I guess what would be considered a first round bus
- 6:18Speaker 4: right now. Even though we talked about at the break
- 6:20Speaker 4: that he had a pretty decent rookie campaign, and I
- 6:24Speaker 4: was looking at his numbers. So I looked up his
- 6:26Speaker 4: numbers expecting them to be atrocious. I expected him to
- 6:29Speaker 4: be like, you know, fifty touchdowns and eighty interceptions or something,
- 6:33Speaker 4: but they're actually not terrible. Career completion percentage is over
- 6:39Speaker 4: four seasons is sixty five point nine percent, so almost
- 6:41Speaker 4: sixty six percent completion ten five and ninety total yards,
- 6:46Speaker 4: fifty four touchdowns to forty four interceptions.
- 6:50Speaker 2: I really expected that to be a little bit closer.
- 6:52Speaker 4: To even so, like in an ESPN like rating of
- 6:57Speaker 4: eighty quarterback rating of eighty four point nine, which is
- 7:00Speaker 4: not like terrible statistics. It's not elite or really good
- 7:05Speaker 4: or anything, but I expected it because of I mean,
- 7:08Speaker 4: he's a first round pick in twenty twenty one and
- 7:10Speaker 4: this is a third team. Like that's pretty wild to
- 7:13Speaker 4: like not have such bass, but you know, clearly they
- 7:16Speaker 4: trust in him enough to be a backup to a
- 7:20Speaker 4: in a backup to a highly paid quarterback as an
- 7:23Speaker 4: important position. So we'll see what kind of juicy's got left.
- 7:26Speaker 4: I mean, if there's motivation, if there's motivation to be
- 7:31Speaker 4: had out there for a guy, it's being a first
- 7:33Speaker 4: round pick, people saying you're a bust and get an
- 7:36Speaker 4: opportunity to go play in a dome, which is a
- 7:38Speaker 4: quarterback's dream. Playing in a dome like this is an
- 7:41Speaker 4: opportunity that you're gonna get a kid's best shot, who
- 7:44Speaker 4: is obviously was clearly more talented enough to be a
- 7:47Speaker 4: first rounder. So again, like looking at I was expecting
- 7:52Speaker 4: to come on here and be able to talk all
- 7:54Speaker 4: segment about how bad he's been, but really it hasn't
- 7:57Speaker 4: been that.
- 7:58Speaker 2: Like, I'm sure there's been some games where it's just
- 8:00Speaker 2: been hideous.
- 8:01Speaker 4: Oh and and that that baby that used diaper face
- 8:06Speaker 4: that he had.
- 8:07Speaker 2: After he got when he sprained his ankle.
- 8:09Speaker 4: Was it a torn achilles norained his ankle? There was
- 8:13Speaker 4: a clip recently I saw on on on Twitter X
- 8:17Speaker 4: or whatever that came across and he's like, here's the difference,
- 8:20Speaker 4: And it showed Aaron Rodgers face when he tore his
- 8:23Speaker 4: a c L and he like he limped off the
- 8:26Speaker 4: field and he was just like stone cold. Yeah, he
- 8:28Speaker 4: was Mac Jones's face after he sprained his ankle.
- 8:31Speaker 2: And he was like crying, two people carrying them off.
- 8:33Speaker 2: People was crying and screaming in the tunnel. Did see that?
- 8:39Speaker 2: Come on, what are we doing on? Be tough?
- 8:43Speaker 4: But you do have more touchdowns interceptions in your career,
- 8:45Speaker 4: so I'll give you.
- 8:46Speaker 3: A little bit of credit for that. Yeah, Adam Fields,
- 8:49Speaker 3: I hear you. He's like, do we really want the
- 8:51Speaker 3: Saints winning a lot of games?
- 8:52Speaker 2: Why?
- 8:53Speaker 3: I understand, like you want a great draft choice. But Adam,
- 8:56Speaker 3: I'll tell you this, and I'll ask you this question.
- 9:01Speaker 3: What have the Saints done in the draft that makes
- 9:03Speaker 3: you feel like they'd make the right decision?
- 9:05Speaker 2: That's a great question.
- 9:07Speaker 3: What have they done that may Oh, yeah, for sure,
- 9:10Speaker 3: they'd crush the top pick. Who are we taking for
- 9:12Speaker 3: right now? I don't have that belief that they would
- 9:15Speaker 3: do that. Like now, Banks this, you know, number nine
- 9:18Speaker 3: overall pick. It looks pretty good. It looks solid for sure,
- 9:23Speaker 3: But do we really need to revisit the draft history?
- 9:26Speaker 3: Like you just had to cut a second round pick.
- 9:29Speaker 3: They couldn't find a tackle with the search warrant in
- 9:31Speaker 3: his time in New Orleans and Isaiah Foski and we
- 9:34Speaker 3: could go down the long list, and Trevor Pinning and
- 9:37Speaker 3: Caesar UIs like, we could go down the list if
- 9:39Speaker 3: you want to, But you know it. You already know it.
- 9:41Speaker 3: So like I hear you, I hear what you're saying about, like,
- 9:44Speaker 3: let's get a good draft choice, let's get a quarterback.
- 9:46Speaker 3: But do you really, right now trust them to make
- 9:49Speaker 3: the right pick. And here's my here's my opinion.
- 9:51Speaker 4: A thought on this is the Saints are not threatening
- 9:55Speaker 4: to fall outside of the top ten in the draft.
- 9:58Speaker 2: That's just the roster's not there, the depth is not there.
- 10:02Speaker 4: They're not going to go on this run where they're like, okay,
- 10:05Speaker 4: we're you know, we won enough games to where we're
- 10:07Speaker 4: picking fifteenth.
- 10:08Speaker 2: Yeah, they're gonna have a top ten pick.
- 10:11Speaker 4: So it's like the difference between you know, three and ten,
- 10:16Speaker 4: I mean it's it's, you know, fairly significant.
- 10:18Speaker 2: But what I would rather do with a.
- 10:20Speaker 4: First year head coach and two young quarterbacks is show
- 10:26Speaker 4: some life, show some progress, and show other vets across
- 10:31Speaker 4: the league who might be become free agents that we're
- 10:34Speaker 4: a destination place that is an up and coming, Like.
- 10:36Speaker 2: Look at we did this year with our first year
- 10:38Speaker 2: head coach.
- 10:39Speaker 4: It's kind of a sexy place to look at the
- 10:41Speaker 4: offense we did, we had success.
- 10:43Speaker 2: Guess what would happen if.
- 10:44Speaker 4: We had you in a Saints helmet, Like, that's the
- 10:47Speaker 4: pitch to free agents. So I'd rather that then tank
- 10:52Speaker 4: and get a shot at a hopefully a number one overall,
- 10:55Speaker 4: because just because you're number one or two overall doesn't
- 10:57Speaker 4: mean you're going to be good. You got bet are
- 11:00Speaker 4: shot at it. There's more. But and we do think
- 11:03Speaker 4: there's certain teams.
- 11:03Speaker 3: That if they were drafting number one overall, like yeah,
- 11:06Speaker 3: look at the draft, look at the Eagles have drafted,
- 11:09Speaker 3: and look at Green Bay's draft or whoever.
- 11:11Speaker 4: Yeah, but if you have a free agent, if you
- 11:12Speaker 4: have some free agents in in the NFL that in
- 11:16Speaker 4: mid March of twenty twenty six are completely free agents
- 11:20Speaker 4: and trying to decide where to go, where do I fit?
- 11:23Speaker 4: Are you really going to look at a place that
- 11:26Speaker 4: went two and fifteen and has to take a young
- 11:30Speaker 4: quarterback and start over, like, I mean, we get it,
- 11:33Speaker 4: it is a rebuild year. Yeah, but I would rather
- 11:35Speaker 4: show some positivity. We won these games. We won the games,
- 11:39Speaker 4: and this is the depth we had.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Just think if we had you right, what we could
- 11:43Speaker 3: do instead of with the fourth overall pig, the New
- 11:45Speaker 3: Orleans Saints select Edge Rusher from Houston Christian exactly intername
- 11:50Speaker 3: or maybe it's Houston Baptist.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Now they change names.
- 11:52Speaker 3: I don't remember if they changed two Christian or two Baptists,
- 11:55Speaker 3: but either way, you get the point.
- 11:57Speaker 2: Oh, you know, Mickey's gonna do that there. But his
- 11:59Speaker 2: real athletics score was through the roof.
- 12:01Speaker 3: Yeah, so was Peyton Turner's and Marcus Davenports.
- 12:06Speaker 4: So maybe we just like celebrate the wins and like
- 12:08Speaker 4: so celebrate competitive competitive.
- 12:11Speaker 2: Be competitive, like the Pelicans are competitive and.
- 12:13Speaker 4: It sucks, the love of God, Saints fans, don't be
- 12:16Speaker 4: mad if we win.
- 12:17Speaker 3: I know, like, come on, man, the Pelicans is like
- 12:20Speaker 3: you poke them with a stick, Like do something, Come on,
- 12:23Speaker 3: give me something like Matt Jones, George Yes, you're facing
- 12:27Speaker 3: McCorkle Jones with no George Kittle and a Christian McCaffrey
- 12:30Speaker 3: that is probably going to have bandages on because my
- 12:33Speaker 3: man's put together right now with duck tape and super
- 12:35Speaker 3: Gluehan That's that's kind of where he's at right now.
- 12:38Speaker 3: I wish he was healthy and love watching c Mac,
- 12:40Speaker 3: but he's not all right. Dwan Jennings is same situation.
- 12:45Speaker 3: He's not healthy. Go be competitive, Go win a game,
- 12:48Speaker 3: Just go do it.
- 12:49Speaker 2: Go do it.
- 12:50Speaker 3: You're at home, you're facing a backup quarterback without their
- 12:54Speaker 3: best player.
- 12:55Speaker 4: Go win a game. So we're in a grants, this
- 12:58Speaker 4: is a must win. It is I don't find a
- 13:00Speaker 4: way to win this one. I think we could safely
- 13:01Speaker 4: say we're eliminated from playoff contention.
- 13:05Speaker 2: I'm with you mathematically.
- 13:07Speaker 3: Yeah, And look like if you if if you don't
- 13:10Speaker 3: like Spencer Rattler, if he's if he's your issue. I
- 13:13Speaker 3: do think there's gonna be four quarterbacks in this in
- 13:16Speaker 3: this draft at are good day one starter quarterbacks. So
- 13:22Speaker 3: you can go get one in the draft. Even if
- 13:24Speaker 3: you win six games, you'll be fine. Just go win.
- 13:28Speaker 3: Just gonna be competitive. That's why you spot the ball,
- 13:31Speaker 3: is to go play and win. I hope you draft
- 13:34Speaker 3: somebody that you hope ends up being good.
- 13:36Speaker 4: If there was a camp Ward in this draft, I
- 13:38Speaker 4: would maybe say Tank I like him a lot.
- 13:43Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, yeah, look, Cam's great.
- 13:47Speaker 2: What if you're like, well, Cam is gonna be.
- 13:50Speaker 3: But okay, it's a great example though, but like he
- 13:53Speaker 3: was the clear number one in that draft. Like if
- 13:56Speaker 3: you go back to yeah, okay, if you go back
- 14:00Speaker 3: to the you know Jaden Daniels, Caleb Williams, Bo Nigs,
- 14:06Speaker 3: Michael Pennock, Junior, JJ mccara like, yeah, Drake may right.
- 14:10Speaker 3: I mean it's a different draft than what you had,
- 14:12Speaker 3: you know, last year, where it's like, okay, well Cam's
- 14:14Speaker 3: the guy, let's try to figure out if there's anybody
- 14:17Speaker 3: else that can, you know, be a first round pick
- 14:18Speaker 3: at the quarterback position. So it's a different conversation, completely
- 14:22Speaker 3: different conversation. I don't think that this draft is what
- 14:25Speaker 3: we saw in twenty four, but it's certainly more than
- 14:28Speaker 3: we saw last year.
- 14:29Speaker 4: So I guess we were safe to say we're taking
- 14:31Speaker 4: the Saints plus three and a half all day, every.
- 14:34Speaker 2: Day, every lets go. And I actually feel pretty good
- 14:37Speaker 2: about it. I feel real good about it. I feel
- 14:39Speaker 2: like I'm having a lot to you.
- 14:40Speaker 4: I think based on the show that I mean, because
- 14:42Speaker 4: we have listeners all over the world, tens and tens
- 14:44Speaker 4: of listeners. I think there is what tens of listeners
- 14:49Speaker 4: all over the world.
- 14:51Speaker 2: I think the line's gonna move.
- 14:52Speaker 4: Saints will probably be minus three and a half at
- 14:54Speaker 4: by ten o five.
- 14:57Speaker 2: I beget.
- 14:59Speaker 1: It.
- 14:59Speaker 3: Probably it goes down. You don't think this show's affecting
- 15:02Speaker 3: maybe the line. Maybe maybe I think there's a shot.
- 15:05Speaker 3: I bet buy a kickoff it goes down to two
- 15:07Speaker 3: and a half, though, I bet you're right. Yeah, if
- 15:09Speaker 3: you can get at three and a half, get it, go.
- 15:10Speaker 2: Ahead and get it right today.
- 15:11Speaker 3: And if you got it at what was it? What
- 15:13Speaker 3: I say it opened up? Yep, like eight and a half. Yeah, yeah,
- 15:17Speaker 3: I think you said that. Yeah, okay, sounds right.
- 15:19Speaker 2: If you got it at that, congratulations.
- 15:22Speaker 3: All right, we will step away, but yeah, big opportunity
- 15:25Speaker 3: for your New Orleans Saints to go win a game
- 15:27Speaker 3: when they're without their quarterback, without their best offensive flair.
- 15:30Speaker 2: We'll be back more.

- 18:46Speaker 3: helmet perfect, You're think about l Shue's helmet. You know
- 18:57Speaker 3: what Florida should be thinking about coming into Death Out
- 19:00Speaker 3: this Saturday.
- 19:03Speaker 4: Scary, terrified, scary because I think that LSU fan heard
- 19:08Speaker 4: Brian Kels, Brian Kelly's plea, his demand, his command. Well
- 19:14Speaker 4: they did, I hope they did. If you, we probably
- 19:17Speaker 4: need to play it. I don't know if we can
- 19:19Speaker 4: being on remote, but we probably need to play it
- 19:21Speaker 4: just so you can hear from the.
- 19:22Speaker 2: Coach light up Death Valley this week.
- 19:25Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we played it on Monday, but yeah,
- 19:27Speaker 3: it's a good reminder. So Tata, whenever you had that ready,
- 19:30Speaker 3: just kind of shoot me a text and we got
- 19:32Speaker 3: a little bit of a delay, but we'll get that
- 19:35Speaker 3: played again. And there's nothing better then when a big
- 19:39Speaker 3: game is in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, because it's Thursday, and
- 19:42Speaker 3: you start to feel the buzz, you start to feel
- 19:44Speaker 3: it in the air, you start to feel it in
- 19:46Speaker 3: your fingertips, and your spidy senses start going off a
- 19:49Speaker 3: little bit like, oh, something's a little something's a little
- 19:52Speaker 3: bit different here in the town.
- 19:54Speaker 2: This week.
- 19:54Speaker 3: You start to see the r vs getting ready on
- 19:56Speaker 3: Thursday instead of Friday night. You know, the businesses are
- 20:01Speaker 3: jumping a little bit. You start to see more movement
- 20:03Speaker 3: across town here and there. You know, it's just it's
- 20:06Speaker 3: a different feel whenever you have a big game in town.
- 20:09Speaker 3: And so like when your head coach challenges you as
- 20:12Speaker 3: a fan base, because when these lists come out, and
- 20:15Speaker 3: when EA Sports has a video game and it's like,
- 20:18Speaker 3: what's the number one place to play, Well, it's Death Valley.
- 20:21Speaker 3: It's Death Valley at night, It's Death Valley against the
- 20:23Speaker 3: Florida Gators.
- 20:24Speaker 2: All of that is here. All of that is an
- 20:27Speaker 2: opportunity this week.
- 20:30Speaker 4: So the players have an opportunity, but the fans have
- 20:34Speaker 4: an opportunity to sure provide and make it like we
- 20:37Speaker 4: all everybody, everybody has that responsibility, that ability themselves to
- 20:41Speaker 4: go and make it an unforgettable night and death value.
- 20:45Speaker 3: You only get so many of these every year. And
- 20:47Speaker 3: think about it when we're sitting there now, we're lucky,
- 20:50Speaker 3: we have LSU baseball to be excited about, talk about, celebrate,
- 20:54Speaker 3: But still, like when you're sitting there and it's the
- 20:57Speaker 3: springtime and you're jonesing for some football.
- 21:00Speaker 2: Well, remember, you only get so many of these per year.
- 21:03Speaker 3: Like that big ass stadium behind me, it's beautiful, we
- 21:07Speaker 3: love it.
- 21:07Speaker 2: It's incredible. It's the best in the country.
- 21:09Speaker 3: It only gets used like eight times a year, and
- 21:12Speaker 3: this year even less because you went to Clemson that
- 21:16Speaker 3: normally would have been a home game for you. And
- 21:18Speaker 3: I know you've had some neutral site games over the
- 21:19Speaker 3: last couple of years, but normally that's a home game
- 21:21Speaker 3: for you. So you lost one of those opportunities. You
- 21:24Speaker 3: only get so many, So why not celebrate the hell
- 21:27Speaker 3: out of the ones that you get, certainly when you
- 21:28Speaker 3: play against a team that you hate so and.
- 21:30Speaker 2: You even get even less at night, Like this is true, like.
- 21:33Speaker 4: The stars, you don't get to dictate that any Yeah,
- 21:35Speaker 4: the stars are aligned, guys, the stars are aligned. So
- 21:38Speaker 4: like this, you never know a night game in LSU,
- 21:41Speaker 4: win the opportunity to go which game it's gonna be
- 21:44Speaker 4: where you can look back in like fifteen twenty years
- 21:46Speaker 4: and be like, I remember where I was sitting for
- 21:48Speaker 4: that one. I remember the atmosphere is allowed. It's like
- 21:51Speaker 4: people still come to us and talk about games that
- 21:53Speaker 4: we were at LSU for them, we're lucky enough to
- 21:57Speaker 4: play them, and they talk about where they were sitting,
- 22:00Speaker 4: like what they were always has an opportunity like this,
- 22:04Speaker 4: This game has an opportunity to do that. You just
- 22:05Speaker 4: never know when that's gonna happen. So go uh shout out,
- 22:07Speaker 4: don't forget to wear gold.

- 28:40Speaker 4: When y'all set up a if you go to a fundraiser,
- 28:43Speaker 4: some sort of event that they're where they're raising money,
- 28:45Speaker 4: like what is do you kind of ask them like, Hey,
- 28:49Speaker 4: what is your kind of the clientele that you're gonna have?
- 28:53Speaker 4: Do you do you find that sports is the main
- 28:56Speaker 4: thing that people like. Do they like some of the
- 28:58Speaker 4: like the pop cultures that fifty to fifty spilitters. It
- 29:01Speaker 4: kind of depends on the spot. It depends on the
- 29:03Speaker 4: spot and the vibe of the event, right. We want
- 29:06Speaker 4: to make sure we have a little bit of it all,
- 29:07Speaker 4: so we have art to Becky Foss is our number
- 29:10Speaker 4: one artist that we use.
- 29:11Speaker 6: She has some beautiful stuff. But it really just depends
- 29:14Speaker 6: on the event. And I always tell people that we
- 29:16Speaker 6: don't just sell memorability. We sell like a moment or
- 29:18Speaker 6: we sell a memory, we sell a dream, pro dreams
- 29:21Speaker 6: to teaze them.
- 29:23Speaker 2: We sell a dream out there.
- 29:24Speaker 6: That's but everybody remembers that one moment in sports where
- 29:27Speaker 6: like I was at that game when Jacob went for it,
- 29:30Speaker 6: I was at that game when he threw that touchdown,
- 29:33Speaker 6: or whatever the case is. But everybody remembers that one
- 29:35Speaker 6: moment in sports where like I can go back to
- 29:38Speaker 6: where nothing else in the world matters, and especially like
- 29:41Speaker 6: what happened this past week and current events that I
- 29:44Speaker 6: think sports is always going to be that go to
- 29:46Speaker 6: of like I can disassociate with what's going on in
- 29:50Speaker 6: the world and be right back in sports.
- 29:52Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 29:52Speaker 3: I mean we actually, like the twenty year anniversary of
- 29:56Speaker 3: our dame against Arizona State just happened the other day,
- 29:59Speaker 3: and it was like, it was such a devastating time
- 30:01Speaker 3: in Louisiana going through Hurricane Katrina, and it's like, you know, initially,
- 30:06Speaker 3: you're like, does anybody care about like a football game?
- 30:08Speaker 3: Like is anybody like we got so much devastation back home,
- 30:11Speaker 3: But I can't tell you the amount of people like
- 30:13Speaker 3: that year and still to this day will come up
- 30:15Speaker 3: to all of us and be like, hey, that three
- 30:18Speaker 3: hour escape that we had, Like we had a lot
- 30:21Speaker 3: of things going on and we barely can find a
- 30:23Speaker 3: place to watch the game.
- 30:24Speaker 2: But for three hours we were able.
- 30:26Speaker 3: To escape a little bit and just go watch y'all
- 30:28Speaker 3: play Arizona State. It's like sometimes you forget about that, right,
- 30:31Speaker 3: that what sports can do for you and you.
- 30:33Speaker 4: Can offer that little time capsule memory that can take
- 30:38Speaker 4: you back to those moments too, and with the with
- 30:41Speaker 4: the memorabilia, like you said, there's a helmet or.
- 30:43Speaker 2: A picture or a ticket stuff or whatever.
- 30:46Speaker 4: It is just to like take you back a little
- 30:48Speaker 4: bit and bring a little joy back to.
- 30:50Speaker 6: Where we can all find a common ground of like
- 30:52Speaker 6: that's my team and that's my moment.
- 30:55Speaker 3: Even this ugly ass Florida helmet you've got in front
- 30:58Speaker 3: of us, Tim t Bows signed Florida helmet.

- 37:12Speaker 3: I am feeling pretty pretty bullish now about this Saints game.
- 37:16Speaker 3: I've talked myself into it. No brock Purdy, no George
- 37:20Speaker 3: Kittle sat.
- 37:22Speaker 2: There in Yeah.
- 37:23Speaker 4: Oh, they're gonna win this week.
- 37:26Speaker 2: We said that last week too.
- 37:28Speaker 4: But I think what the feeling I was getting, I
- 37:30Speaker 4: think it was a week premature. So it's this week
- 37:33Speaker 4: fest show one hundred percent what it's going to be.
- 37:36Speaker 2: I like it. You had an opportunity last week.
- 37:38Speaker 4: It's going to be a good weekend for elish for
- 37:41Speaker 4: Louisiana football fans.
- 37:43Speaker 2: It would be some good vibes.
- 37:44Speaker 3: If LSU was able to take down one of their
- 37:47Speaker 3: rivals and then the Saints get a victory, ask you
- 37:50Speaker 3: this positive, What do you.
- 37:51Speaker 4: Expect from the Florida Gators coming into town?
- 37:55Speaker 2: Like, I know.
- 37:57Speaker 4: They had the loss this past week, South Florida, a
- 38:01Speaker 4: team that they're not supposed to ever lose to a
- 38:03Speaker 4: team that they're certainly more talented to. Now I know
- 38:05Speaker 4: a team that is talented. They were coming off of
- 38:07Speaker 4: a good win versus a ranked Boise State team. But still,
- 38:14Speaker 4: I don't care how good you are, You're still not
- 38:16Speaker 4: supposed to be Florida if you're South Florida. So how
- 38:20Speaker 4: do you think? What do you think the messaging was?
- 38:22Speaker 4: I mean they know, I mean they all these kids
- 38:24Speaker 4: have access to social media. They know the messaging that's
- 38:28Speaker 4: out there about Billy Napier for sure, and they know
- 38:31Speaker 4: what happened last year. They know that they saved at
- 38:34Speaker 4: the team, saved his job last year.
- 38:36Speaker 2: And now they.
- 38:37Speaker 4: Hear the rumblings, they hear people for calling people calling
- 38:40Speaker 4: for him to be fired. Now they get it. They
- 38:43Speaker 4: see that you can't shelter them from that. So as
- 38:46Speaker 4: a head coach, you kind of have to dress it right,
- 38:48Speaker 4: you have to address the elephant.
- 38:49Speaker 2: In the room, you all.
- 38:51Speaker 4: I mean you have to tell them, you know, this
- 38:52Speaker 4: is why we lost, Like y'all did not play well enough,
- 38:55Speaker 4: the effort wasn't there.
- 38:56Speaker 2: But then you also got to say we need to
- 38:58Speaker 2: talk about this.
- 39:00Speaker 3: So so if I am a Florida fan, like, at
- 39:03Speaker 3: least I can kind of say, you know what.
- 39:07Speaker 2: We went through this last year.
- 39:09Speaker 3: Now you don't love where you're at as a program,
- 39:12Speaker 3: because Florida wants to play for championships, right, I mean
- 39:14Speaker 3: they you know that's what they've they've done. I mean,
- 39:17Speaker 3: what six in two thousand and eight, Like you, you know,
- 39:21Speaker 3: you win multiple national championships. I know that wasn't just
- 39:23Speaker 3: yesterday or anything, but it's Florida. Come on, we know
- 39:25Speaker 3: what the deal is. But at least you can say,
- 39:28Speaker 3: you know what, last year wasn't going great. You lost
- 39:32Speaker 3: to Georgia and in Jacksonville you got absolutely housed by Texas.
- 39:36Speaker 3: Now you rested some of your players that you know,
- 39:39Speaker 3: maybe they could have gone, but you said, hey, we're
- 39:42Speaker 3: gonna make sure we're ready for Lshue at home. So
- 39:45Speaker 3: you lose to Georgia, you lose on the road, to
- 39:47Speaker 3: Texas and you come back and you beat LSHU. You
- 39:50Speaker 3: keep them out of Atlanta, you keep Ole Miss out
- 39:52Speaker 3: of Atlanta. You beat them. You go beat a rival
- 39:56Speaker 3: in Florida State. They weren't good last year, but you
- 39:58Speaker 3: still beat them. And then you went Bowl game against
- 40:00Speaker 3: two Lane. So you won four games in a row
- 40:04Speaker 3: after losing too in a row, and everybody thought, oh,
- 40:07Speaker 3: if you lose to LSU, Billy's just going to go
- 40:10Speaker 3: pack his office and he's done. And I truly believe that,
- 40:13Speaker 3: like if he lost that game, he probably was done.
- 40:15Speaker 3: They win that game, they won multiple games, They win
- 40:17Speaker 3: four games in a row, and look, you open the
- 40:20Speaker 3: season with Long Island. I'm not gonna take anything of that,
- 40:21Speaker 3: but you won. So you win five games in a row,
- 40:23Speaker 3: and it's like everything's going in the right direction. DJ
- 40:27Speaker 3: Lagway's back healthy, he's going we got LSU on the
- 40:32Speaker 3: road early in the season. We're feeling good about where
- 40:35Speaker 3: we're at right now. And then you lose to South Florida.
- 40:38Speaker 3: Now you had that as a win in the off season.
- 40:40Speaker 3: Every time you're playing the schedule game, you're like South
- 40:42Speaker 3: Florida win to and zero head and LSU gonna be
- 40:46Speaker 3: a top ten matchup maybe, and now it's not. And
- 40:50Speaker 3: now the same conversations are happening again. It's like, Okay,
- 40:53Speaker 3: you did it once, and that was highly impressive to
- 40:56Speaker 3: be able to change your season, change your fortune that
- 40:58Speaker 3: late into the season. I gave Billy a lot of
- 41:00Speaker 3: credit for that, But how many times can you do that?
- 41:03Speaker 3: Did you empty the tank?
- 41:05Speaker 2: Right? All the equity that you built up.
- 41:07Speaker 3: And had to use there in that moment, Like do
- 41:09Speaker 3: you have any more left over? So like that would
- 41:12Speaker 3: be the question, like what's the vibe going to be?
- 41:16Speaker 3: Is the team still together?
- 41:18Speaker 2: Right?
- 41:18Speaker 3: Because like DJ Lagway was hurt this off season as well,
- 41:20Speaker 3: So that's a young quarterback who's played, but still a
- 41:23Speaker 3: young quarterback. He didn't have that full off season as
- 41:27Speaker 3: because remember Graham Mertz was the starter last off season,
- 41:30Speaker 3: so DJ.
- 41:31Speaker 2: Didn't have that.
- 41:31Speaker 3: I'm in the thick of it, I'm in the fourth
- 41:33Speaker 3: quarter program, I'm in the summer workouts, I'm in the
- 41:36Speaker 3: spring football.
- 41:37Speaker 2: I'm your guy, I'm your leader.
- 41:38Speaker 3: This is the voice, Like he didn't have that, and
- 41:41Speaker 3: those things are very important in the off season.
- 41:44Speaker 2: So it's like, what are you leaning on? Who are
- 41:47Speaker 2: you leaning on.
- 41:47Speaker 3: Who are you counting on to make sure that you're
- 41:50Speaker 3: ready to go in this moment.
- 41:53Speaker 2: Yeah, it's certainly a good point. I know that.
- 41:56Speaker 4: The thank you, I know, yeah, whatever, I know that.
- 42:03Speaker 4: I guess the argument can be made like, oh, well, Billy,
- 42:05Speaker 4: if there's any guy, if there's a coach that's already
- 42:08Speaker 4: been in this situation, he's proven that he can bring
- 42:11Speaker 4: the team back in a season after he's already kind
- 42:14Speaker 4: of on the hot seat.
- 42:15Speaker 2: But like at a certain point, it's like, quit getting
- 42:18Speaker 2: on the hot seat. I know, I feel you don't
- 42:20Speaker 2: lose it, don't lose to South Florida. And I get it.
- 42:22Speaker 4: DJ Lagway is dealing with some has dealt with some
- 42:25Speaker 4: offs's injuries.
- 42:26Speaker 2: And and he is.
- 42:28Speaker 4: I believe the messaging coming off is like he's getting better,
- 42:31Speaker 4: he's a little rusty.
- 42:32Speaker 2: He's knocking the rust off. That don't matter.
- 42:35Speaker 4: In the win lost calin it doesn't matter, like you're
- 42:38Speaker 4: still playing South Florida. You can't make that an excuse
- 42:42Speaker 4: of why you lost to South Florida in the swamp. Yeah,
- 42:46Speaker 4: there's no excuse for that. If your starter is not
- 42:51Speaker 4: ready or healthy enough or there enough to win a
- 42:56Speaker 4: game against South Florida.
- 42:57Speaker 2: He doesn't need to be playing.
- 42:59Speaker 4: Yeah, well least like I remember Jimbo Fisher told me, like,
- 43:03Speaker 4: you can't play hurt because our backup's better than you hurt,
- 43:08Speaker 4: Like you know what I mean, Like you at fifty
- 43:10Speaker 4: percent is not as good as a backup, yeah at
- 43:14Speaker 4: one hundred percent. Right, So, but I'm not saying that
- 43:18Speaker 4: he's heard. But that's that's the messaging that I'm here,
- 43:20Speaker 4: and it's like, yeah, he's still knocking the rest off,
- 43:23Speaker 4: He's doing this, he's doing that. Well, there's no really
- 43:25Speaker 4: excuses in the win lost Cal. It's not going to
- 43:27Speaker 4: save a job because your quarterback's rusty because he had
- 43:30Speaker 4: a pulled hammy right in the off season. That's not
- 43:33Speaker 4: an excuse. And I am I'm sitting here. I've been
- 43:36Speaker 4: I have been watching trying to break down the offensive tapor,
- 43:39Speaker 4: the Florida offensive tape against South Florida last week.
- 43:42Speaker 2: And granted, I.
- 43:42Speaker 4: Will admit hand hand in the air, I haven't I
- 43:44Speaker 4: didn't watch a lot of outside of the LSU game.
- 43:46Speaker 4: Didn't watch a lot of DJ Lagway last year enough
- 43:49Speaker 4: to where like I was trying to grade him and
- 43:53Speaker 4: what And I've watched watching a little bit of this
- 43:56Speaker 4: tape from this past week, and not very impressed with
- 43:58Speaker 4: what I'm seeing from a mobility standpoint deciphering defenses.
- 44:04Speaker 2: Uh.
- 44:05Speaker 4: Sure, talented, big guy can make can make a lot
- 44:08Speaker 4: of throws. But I'm seeing a guy that's a little
- 44:10Speaker 4: bit inaccurate and he's gonna he makes accurate throws, but
- 44:14Speaker 4: he's got some mechanical flaws and some issues that I see.
- 44:16Speaker 4: Maybe that's the rust they're talking about. He plays a
- 44:19Speaker 4: little quick. His feet are a little bit slow, but
- 44:21Speaker 4: his upper body is very fast. Yeah, So like he's
- 44:24Speaker 4: slow in a drop back and then he makes a
- 44:26Speaker 4: decision last minute to throw it, and then he's like
- 44:27Speaker 4: really fast he gets it out and a lot of
- 44:29Speaker 4: times it looks pretty and you're like, oh, what a
- 44:30Speaker 4: quick delivery. But he's kind of like a slasher like
- 44:32Speaker 4: he he's a guy I call it a spinner, like
- 44:34Speaker 4: he spins his upper body to create His upper body
- 44:37Speaker 4: creates a lot of his power, not his lower body.
- 44:40Speaker 4: And I don't like that that that leads for over
- 44:42Speaker 4: the period of an entire game or a season, it
- 44:44Speaker 4: leads to inaccuracies. Now, he might make three, four, five,
- 44:47Speaker 4: six good throws in a row, but eventually it's going
- 44:50Speaker 4: to catch up to him. And I saw a lot
- 44:51Speaker 4: of throws early on that were not very accurate. And
- 44:54Speaker 4: I also saw South Florida defense flying around make him
- 44:59Speaker 4: play playing with more energy. Now, Yeah, Florida looks like
- 45:01Speaker 4: they got some talented guys on the offensive lineman. Their
- 45:04Speaker 4: their guards looked like they played pretty aggressive, but I
- 45:06Speaker 4: saw no movement, no movement forward. A lot of their
- 45:09Speaker 4: runs are RPOs, So what the what does the lineman
- 45:12Speaker 4: have to do on an RPO? They just have to
- 45:14Speaker 4: block and maintain their position. They can't drive people backwards
- 45:18Speaker 4: because then you get offensive linemen down the field.
- 45:20Speaker 2: A lot of that.
- 45:21Speaker 4: A lot of their run game is based off RPOs.
- 45:24Speaker 4: And RPOs are great. I love them. They're great to
- 45:27Speaker 4: sprinkle into the game, but that can't be your base
- 45:31Speaker 4: runs because your offensive linean cannot drive drive.
- 45:34Speaker 2: Yeah, and I saw that a lot.
- 45:35Speaker 4: Then, and so they just stand up and the holes
- 45:37Speaker 4: get clog and there's no where nowhere really to run.
- 45:39Speaker 4: So they got out energy. South Florida beat them. They
- 45:43Speaker 4: wanted it more. They wanted to get the ball. They
- 45:45Speaker 4: wanted to get the ball carrier down. So we'll see LSU.
