  Speaker 1: Rouge starts now.
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: Now we'rena ye or two of OTB. All right, So
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: just to set up the rest of the show, we
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: moved a couple things around, So Jeff Watson and Will
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: Helmer's will join us at eight fifteen from the G team.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: Talk a little nil with them again at eight to fifteen.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: We've got chef Michael Johnson to answer your Munchi questions
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: at nine to fifteen, and we'll catch up with NFL
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: Hall of Famer Patrick Willis at nine thirty. So still
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: a lot coming your way here in the show. We're
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: gonna watch a little tape, watch a little film here.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: But we did have a question coming in, got this
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: one that I wanted to throw your way.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: How will LSU.
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: Get all of their blitz packages in when ole miss
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: is going in hyper speed? As we know, they try
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: to get to the ball as fast as anybody in
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: the country. And that's one of the reasons why there's
• 1:50
  Speaker 4: a misconception of the old Miss offense. Everyone just assumes
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: that because you go fast, you throw the football. Now
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: they'll they'll throw the football, but they want to run
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: it way more than they throw it. So like that's
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: a part of it. But defensively, when you're as aggressive
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: as LSU is and you're throwing all different blitzes and
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: you're coming from everywhere, you're coming from safety, you're coming
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: from corner cats. Certainly, the linebackers are very active, the
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: star position, Matthew is very active. How does LSU get
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: all of that in If Ole Miss is trying to
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: go fast and can you be as aggressive when they're
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: going fast.
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: The answer to that question is you can't put everything in.
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: You can't and you can't do every single look you
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: want to do. Yeah, Ole Mist likes to go fast,
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: but they are doing a lot of get to the
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: ball fast and then see what happens. They're gonna check
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: with me on the sideline, they're gonna get the play calls,
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: they're gonna get the signals.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: So you do have time to make some calls.
• 2:58
  Speaker 5: But what you're doing right now throughout the week is
• 3:01
  Speaker 5: you are hyper focused on the communication between the linebackers
• 3:06
  Speaker 5: and the defensive backs. You're working on your signaling, You're
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: working on your your calls. You're working in in in
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: practice all week long about Okay, I got one linebacker,
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: he's got the green dot on his head, he's getting
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: the call.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: We're also signaling from the sideline, probably to the DB's.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: dB coaches are you know, notorious for signaling to the
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: corners and the safeties, and they relay it to the
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: other guys. But you're making sure you're communicating. If you
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: want to run a full plethora of blitz packages, it
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: has to be communicate, communicate, communicate, because they get to
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: the line of scrimmage, and that's what a fast paced
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: offense wants to do. Yeah, if they want to make
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: your defenses as vanilla as possible, right, they want to
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: make you vanilla as possible. And then they also want
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: to get a good look at what you're trying to do,
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: and then the coach can make the check with me
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: or the audibles or the alerts or whatever it is
• 3:55
  Speaker 5: instead of putting on the quarterback shoulders.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: But just because they go.
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: Fast ask to the line of scrimmage doesn't necessarily mean
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: they snapped the ball fast. I'd like to see what
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: their average snap on the like what time on the
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: play clock is because a lot of times there's people
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: rest of the line of scrimmage, but they still snap
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: the ball with ten to fifteen seconds left on the
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: play clock, right, So it's not necessarily so usually you
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: will have time to make adjustments. But the communication is
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: paramount from between the linebacker.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and now it is easier in college football because
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: you got the green dot, right Harrol Perkins wearing the
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: green bays, and you got communication in your helmet and
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: so like now it falls on if you know perk
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: to be able to get the call in and you
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: could codeword a lot of your blitzes too. Hey, every
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: word that we say that starts with this letter is
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: going to be this blitz every you know, it doesn't
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: have to just be hey, hey, corner cat, but hey
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: we're bringing strike Sam in safety strike.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: It doesn't have to be that.
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: I mean, it can be something that is a code
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: word for you and old miss. They're college students. They're
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: not gonna be able to pick up on your code
• 4:59
  Speaker 4: words within one game.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: It's just not gonna happen.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: So you can still get it done right, and you
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: can get everything you've done without having Now you can
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: hand signal something if you want to.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: Again, college kids aren't gonna pick up a ton of that.
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: LSU hasn't had to do that because Clemson didn't go
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: fast on the road. Every other game has been a
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: home game, so they've been able to communicate pretty easily.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: So if you handle it right and if you prepare right,
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: it will be a challenge, but it won't be impossible.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: It won't be impossible.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: But again, it's like if we're a team that doesn't
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: go like when you play a normal team, you can
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: have maybe twenty different blitzes in you go a game
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: like this, you want to communicate, You're probably gonna communicate
• 5:36
  Speaker 5: four or five maybe six. Now when you get a
• 5:40
  Speaker 5: chance to slow down, if there's a timeout on the field,
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: and that's when you can call your exotics. Like when
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: you you're gonna go into the game in a hurry
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: up situation when they're speeding to the ball they have
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: that fastballed mentality on offense, you're gonna go in there
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: with four or five maybe six right and then but
• 5:56
  Speaker 5: you exotics available. TV timeouts timeouts on the field, injury timeouts.
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I do think that Elshu And actually I'd love
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: to ask Blake Baker this. I do think that LSU's
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: players have the ability to get the call and the
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: player that's not actually blitzing has the ability to show
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: these blitzing and move around, and they give them that
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: option as long as they end up where they're supposed to.
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: Because thank you for Blake Baker, you're not hey on
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: this play, West Weeks, I want you to kind of
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: actually stutter up a little bit and act like you're
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: maybe coming and with it's actually you, it's going to
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: be blitzing. I think they just do a really good
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: job of understanding where their blitz is coming from. And
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: it's like in the NFL we call it rock and roll, right,
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: and it's it's a version of that.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: But I think they do that on their own and
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: so it's like.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Who is it's not a complete ad lib. They practiced that.
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: The coach is talking about, Hey, you need to you
• 6:52
  Speaker 5: have the freedom here to disguise or decoy whatever you
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: want to call it. But to your point, the defense
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: might have a call and against like an offense like
• 7:01
  Speaker 5: this that goes fast.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: The defense might have a call.
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: It's a pressure call, and it might be if it's
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: a three by one set, the pressure might be completely different.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: It might be it might be a weak cat. If
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: it's a two by two set, it.
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: Might be a one like an alert flip call and
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: it becomes a strong dog where they bring the the
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: Nickel Sam and the Mike linebacker and drop the backside.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Defense been so.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Nicol Sam would be called star.
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: No. No, so really no, it wouldn't. Don't be dumb.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: Don't be dumb right now. Uh no, it is. So
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: depending on the look you get, it's kind of like
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: on offense. Offense has an either or type situation. So
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: from the like a real basic if you have a
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: route concept, one of them's good. One left side's good
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: against single high safety, right side is going to good
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: against two s safety.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: You're gonna throw different routes.
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: It's gonna look like a little bit different play from
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: the outcome depending on the defense you get. Same with defense,
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: depending on the the offense shows you, the defense might
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: look completely different.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: We all thought it was a fire alarm, so we
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: were just we all went all right, we're not you know,
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: we're not burning up here.
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: But against the Old Miss reels. Against these guys, you
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: gotta be careful.
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: The Bears, the Black Bears, the Sharks, the land Sharks,
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: a lot of nicknames.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Uh yeah, what are we doing?
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: Like then they don't even like I don't really actually
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: know what they're trying to.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: Be Like Auburn.
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: So when you face Elane Kiffin offense, he's a really
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: good play caller, play designer.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Yea.
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: He wants to bait you into things. He wants to
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: do something to make you react to it and then
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: CounterPunch and react to your reaction.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Right, So he wants you.
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: To bait bait bas So, I told you a lot
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: that in the first half when Old Miss played Arkansas,
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: they ran the ball a lot.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: So what does that do.
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: You got to bring an extra person into the box
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: to control that because they had a hard time stop
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: and a quarterback run, a basic quarterback run. So you
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: bring people in the box. So what does that do
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: in the second half? Taylor, go ahead and pull up
• 9:05
  Speaker 5: this film. I'm gonna show you a I think.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: A three tailor to the tape.
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: To the tape, I'm gonna show you three plays in
• 9:12
  Speaker 5: a row here in this one drive.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: This is in the second half.
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: I think this starts with about eight and a half
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: minutes left in the third quarter. So what after many
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: many quarterback runs, They're gonna load the box. So we
• 9:25
  Speaker 5: got a four wide situation. We have five offensive linement,
• 9:28
  Speaker 5: we have one running back. But how many people are
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: in the box and what I mean by in the
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: box in the tackle box, that'd be six defenders, so
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: you got five to block. Six numbers ain't great. So
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: that's when Lane Kiffin decides, all right, they're loading the box.
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: We got some one on one coverage out here. So
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: we run a simple little two receiver double slant action
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: down here to the bottom.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Boom.
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: Simple right, Yeah, it's an easy throw, easy throw, take
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: a little slam. But this is what I'm talking about
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: with this quarterback. He's not the most talented arm guy.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: Like he completes a lot of passes, but they're not
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: all like perfect passes, Like get a little slant here,
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: hits them in the back.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Yip.
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: Okay, a little thing, little thing for a quarterback. All right,
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: next play, same thing, same look on defense. We got
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: a two bout two exact same formation, Lane Kiffin, We're
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: gonna call the same play. But instead of running a slant,
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: we're gonna run a slug go. What is a SLUGO
• 10:23
  Speaker 5: It's a slant and go. So sets them up. Yeah,
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: same coverage, Yep, slant and go, same coverage. We couldn't
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: be more open. All behind him. Still makes a big play,
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: all right, So go back real quick? All right, right there?
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: All right, listeners, if you're watching on YouTube, watch at
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: the bottom of the screen and watch who throws their
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: arms up as soon as it happens.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: That would be Lane Kiffen.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: That would be Lank Kivin.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: He knew exactly what he did.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: He knew exactly what he did.
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: Because he ran the slant to play before and look
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: thirteen for Arkansas.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: You trash, yeah, and honestly, like with a better ball,
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: would have a chance to make a move on safety.
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: Third play in this drive, go back to it. Not done.
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: This is the So we ran a slant, we ran
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: a slant and go, and now Lane in the first
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: half ran behind the line of scrimmage screen passes. What
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: are we gonna do now, We're gonna fake it and
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: we're gonna have an opportunity at a touchdown down the
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: center of the field, right here, but our quarterback, who
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: I'm not real high on right now, cannot read how
• 11:28
  Speaker 5: it's supposed to be. You're supposed to bubble screen. You're
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: supposed to read the inside receiver first and then to
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: the outside. This is a touchdown. Those are in complete
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: pass out out of bounds. So here we go.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Tight hit.
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: Was big mad too, big mad running right down the field?
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: Why look at Arkansas just walking around. They don't have
• 11:47
  Speaker 5: no idea what they're doing. Anyway, there we go. Layane
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: Kiffin will want to set you up.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: He is, He is really good.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: It is a big setup guy.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: It's a slow play and a lot of time.
• 12:00
  Speaker 4: Honestly, it's a trait that a lot of coordinators say
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: they have, but they don't, and they get so excited.
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: You see it on every level of football. Hell, we
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: see it in flag football. The you and I coach.
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: You get a ball play and you're so excited and
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: it's a new formation and you go out there and
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: you run it.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: Why are you doing that? You didn't set anything up right.
• 12:20
  Speaker 4: So the new formation that you think is going to
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: trick them, how's it going to trick them when they
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: don't know it?
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: Because first time you've shown it or whatever it might be.
• 12:27
  Speaker 4: Sure Lane does a really nice job of understanding, Okay,
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: I'm going to throw this because later on in the game,
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: it's going to set up this and I'll throw a
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: four yard slant to be able to get a forty
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: yard slant later on in the game. And that's why
• 12:40
  Speaker 4: you have to stay so disciplined. And LSU, for the
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: most part, outside of I would say two plays this
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: year touchdown to Louisiantac in a touchdown of Florida, they
• 12:51
  Speaker 4: got called back for holding, You've been incredibly disciplined, Like
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: your defensive backs have done exactly whatever the coverage is asking.
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: Them to do.
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: And that's what's been impressive about the LSU defense to
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: date is they're so aggressive, they fly around so much,
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: they create so much chaos, and you can only do that.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: You can only feel confident in doing that as a
• 13:10
  Speaker 5: defensive coordinator if your guys on the back end are disciplined,
• 13:14
  Speaker 5: and they have they've shown that. So we got to
• 13:16
  Speaker 5: be disciplined in all aspects of our defense, and I
• 13:19
  Speaker 5: have noted doubt that we can. So you got to
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: be disciplined in the zone read game, the quarterback run game,
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: and then you got to be disciplined and watch for
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: the setups, watch for behind the line of scrimmage, and
• 13:32
  Speaker 5: just don't get don't get complacent in what they're doing.
• 13:37
  Speaker 5: Don't be like, all right, they keep throwing these screens,
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: they keep throwing these screens. I'm gonna tamin it. I'm
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: gonna bust this one up for a tackle for a loss,
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: and then all of a sudden you get hit with
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: a fake screen.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Got down the middle.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: Blake Miller ins, O the chad.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: Did you know that no one has ever said slug
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: o without immediately explaining that it is a slant then
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: a go.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: It's fair, It's fair. It's so true.
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: It's kind of like man when they when they latch
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: and they locked things down on the back of their
• 14:05
  Speaker 5: truck with a strap that ain't going nowhere, That ain't
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: going nowhere.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Same thing, yep, she ain't going nowhere.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's very fair.
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: Oh, just in case you didn't know that, I'm really good.
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: Just in case I'm sure there's somebody out there that

• 17:22
  Speaker 4: a little bit about well everything. And I want to
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: start off saying I thought about y'all and the G
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: Team the other day because right now currently because obviously
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: the G Team the nil deals and got Garrett Nessmayer
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: and everything going on, and you know, bringing players from
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: the portal they get nil deals. How about this, The
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: top seven teams in the transfer portal rankings in college
• 17:43
  Speaker 4: football right now are combined twenty seven and zero. Yeah,
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: twenty it's not going anywhere.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: That's Jeff.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: That's one thousand percent, right, Because like, no matter how
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: you felt about it or feel about it, it's like
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: if you don't get on the train, I always say,
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: you'll be left at the station with your bag in hand,
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: waving goodbye to it, and so like it is something
• 18:05
  Speaker 4: like you have to do. And really, as we all know,
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: like the G Team is somebody that was on the
• 18:11
  Speaker 4: forefront of that, and it's been in the game as
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: long as anybody, certainly here in Baton Rouge since the beginning.
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: Keshon Booty was our first football player.
• 18:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, how and then in women's basketball.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and at some point had the whole team, uh yeah, different.
• 18:27
  Speaker 7: Women's basketball team. We did their entire team, we did
• 18:29
  Speaker 7: the we've done the entire gymnastics team. A lot of
• 18:33
  Speaker 7: football players, have some basketball players, and obviously we do
• 18:37
  Speaker 7: a lot of baseball players too.
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: That's what we're talking about with Will.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: I believe last week it's like we all know that
• 18:42
  Speaker 4: LSU baseball is, you know, bigger here than it's going
• 18:45
  Speaker 4: to be in most places. But I have to imagine Will,
• 18:47
  Speaker 4: like you got friends to play for other SEC teams,
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: and they're probably like, wait a minute, y'all got y'all
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: got what y'all get all these NIL deals and you'll
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: get all these things just because you know, people like
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: the G team understand what baseball means to Baton Rouge exactly.
• 18:59
  Speaker 8: I mean, like like y'all said and alluded to, like
• 19:01
  Speaker 8: NIL is going to create championships now in programs in
• 19:04
  Speaker 8: the SEC. And and then teams that can pay. You know,
• 19:08
  Speaker 8: they can win. You know, you're basically paying to win now,
• 19:11
  Speaker 8: and you know those fans.
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: Stab the team to South Carolina. He's like, you say,
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: up an office here in South Carolina. Uh so, Jeff,
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: you've been kind of on the forefront, right, Yeah, we.
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: Started it with when, like I said, the Kaishawn kind
• 19:28
  Speaker 7: of was our first deal.
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: So how has how has like the the I in
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: IOL world? Like at first it was kind of the
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: wild West, right, It's kind of like making the rules
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: up as we went. But every year it seems to
• 19:38
  Speaker 5: kind of tighten up a little bit and everybody's starting
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: to play a little bit by the same rules and everything.
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: So how has it changed? Like what what's the landscape
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: of NIL this year compared to past years?
• 19:47
  Speaker 7: So now, the biggest thing that you have now is
• 19:49
  Speaker 7: revenue share, which is where.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: The actual school is allowed.
• 19:53
  Speaker 7: To use their revenue to pay players, right, which has
• 19:58
  Speaker 7: given more a balance to everybody having money. Instead of
• 20:02
  Speaker 7: just having these Gordons that will come in and do
• 20:05
  Speaker 7: the third party in il dealers, you actually have the
• 20:07
  Speaker 7: school that can use some of their revenue and get
• 20:10
  Speaker 7: more of a playing field. That has also created major
• 20:14
  Speaker 7: issues in controlling in IL because now we've made it
• 20:18
  Speaker 7: a free labor market. And there was a federal judge
• 20:21
  Speaker 7: that just had a decision on the San Diego State
• 20:25
  Speaker 7: offensive lineman who wanted another year of eligibility, and he
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: just rolled two days ago, and basically he does a
• 20:32
  Speaker 7: great analysis of NCAA. You're wrong. This is a labor market.
• 20:37
  Speaker 7: It's just pay for play. And when you did that,
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: you can't now control it and you can't tell people
• 20:42
  Speaker 7: where they can't go, what they can't do. His whole
• 20:45
  Speaker 7: deal was, I'm missing out on NIO opportunities if you
• 20:47
  Speaker 7: don't let me play this year. And that's the free market.
• 20:51
  Speaker 7: And so it's completely changed. Hopefully we'll get to a
• 20:54
  Speaker 7: point where we have some collective bargaining in a union
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: type situation.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: Time like we had in the NFL.
• 21:01
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it has cooint and that's what the lawsuits are.
• 21:04
  Speaker 7: House settlement came down, and then now anyone that tries
• 21:08
  Speaker 7: to restrict that, a lawsuit will be filed, and then
• 21:12
  Speaker 7: changes will be made, and eventually Congress will congress and
• 21:17
  Speaker 7: or NCAA or collect the bargaining in the union. Don't
• 21:19
  Speaker 7: know how that's going to look lately, later, but that
• 21:23
  Speaker 7: will happen and get us into a structured environment. So
• 21:26
  Speaker 7: the NCAA can truly say here's our sandbox. We negotiated
• 21:30
  Speaker 7: these rules with the players. If you want to play,
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: this is our rules. Hey, I would say, and will
• 21:35
  Speaker 7: you know this better than I do?
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: I would say baseball has been as affected as anybody
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: because you can be drafted out of high school and
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: now you're getting players on campus because of nil situations
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: of like, hey you can actually come here. You got
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: a little safety net in this nil because before, like
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: if you got offered a million dollars out of high
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: school and you didn't sign, you came to school, you
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: had to go because you you didn't.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: Know if you were going to come to school and
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: be the same player.
• 21:59
  Speaker 8: I mean, you can get first round money now without
• 22:02
  Speaker 8: going to the draft and get you get the whole
• 22:04
  Speaker 8: college experience.
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: And and why would you not?
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: I think guys like that, right yeah, I mean cry
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: right now, Curio Schmidt.
• 22:11
  Speaker 8: You get all these guys that pile into this program
• 22:14
  Speaker 8: that could have been you know first, you know, the
• 22:16
  Speaker 8: first three rounds of the draft, and they're getting the
• 22:18
  Speaker 8: same money in similar money, you know, to come play
• 22:22
  Speaker 8: and experienced college.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: They're they're not going on a bus ride and random fa.
• 22:30
  Speaker 8: We're taking we're taking charter flights and Dixie Land buses.
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: And lu's facilities are not.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: And so you're to.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: Get better to play for the mud Hens. I don't
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: know who the mud Hens.
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: Are, it's just the first definitely a team.
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So Jeffy, you were talking about like the this
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: year being a revenue sharing situation, so it's tightening up
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: the rules. And so now n I L gets to
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: be you strictly like what it's meant to be name
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: image likeness, which is kind of what y'all are doing
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: it exactly. Always out it that way exactly, instead of
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: like here's a collective, here's this money from this company,
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: go buy this player. Like now it's name image likeness,
• 23:07
  Speaker 5: so it can be used perfectly, which is the way
• 23:10
  Speaker 5: it should be, Like a kid should be able to
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: make money off of using his image. But I know
• 23:15
  Speaker 5: there's also like this governing body that looks at making
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: sure it's fair market value for that work. How is
• 23:22
  Speaker 5: fair market value judged? And who is actually making that
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: final determination.
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: So there's a committee that looks at that and you
• 23:31
  Speaker 7: nailed it. It's what is fair market value? Loreel or
• 23:35
  Speaker 7: someone can look at your beard and say that's the
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: greatest I've ever seen and I want to pay you
• 23:40
  Speaker 7: a million dollars for it. No one can come and
• 23:43
  Speaker 7: say no, you can't. Yeah, and that's the problem, is
• 23:47
  Speaker 7: what So what they've set up is to keep a
• 23:49
  Speaker 7: quarterback that starts in the SEC kind of on the
• 23:52
  Speaker 7: same level, a starting running back in the SEC, same level.
• 23:56
  Speaker 7: But as soon as those deals get rejected, the lawsuits
• 23:58
  Speaker 7: are gonna come. Yeah, and we're gonna which is what
• 24:01
  Speaker 7: we want. We want to get closer to structure, right,
• 24:03
  Speaker 7: And the only way that's gonna happen is if Congress
• 24:06
  Speaker 7: gets involved or lawsuits are filed, and so fair market value.
• 24:10
  Speaker 7: They say they don't use fair market value, and then
• 24:12
  Speaker 7: they have a definition which is literally the definition of
• 24:16
  Speaker 7: fair market value. Yeah, but they don't want to use
• 24:18
  Speaker 7: that word. But yes, that's that's a major issue, and
• 24:23
  Speaker 7: we already had it happened. So a lot of deals
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: got rejected, big deals, and so the plane of lawyers
• 24:29
  Speaker 7: in the House Settlement came back and said, well, we're
• 24:32
  Speaker 7: gonna follow suit on this. We think you can't do that.
• 24:34
  Speaker 7: And so they redid the rules and say, okay, COLLECTI
• 24:37
  Speaker 7: if you're back in play, but you got to make
• 24:39
  Speaker 7: them do something. Sign autographs, show up at golf tournaments.
• 24:42
  Speaker 7: They can do something. And yeah, before it was nothing.
• 24:44
  Speaker 7: It was just a collective given.
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: Money Leonard situation. Yeah, yeah, sure.
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: Sure, all right, So whenever you're trying to okay, we're
• 24:54
  Speaker 4: gonna have these athletes, we want them on the g team.
• 24:56
  Speaker 4: Like Smyers probably pretty obvious he's a quarterback of LSU,
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: But like, what are maybe those conversations like like, who's
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: somebody that we want to work with? Because you want
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: to make sure that you're partnering with people, Like do
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: you lean on somebody like like Will obviously like he's
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: not playing anymore, but he's got great relationships over there, Like, hey,
• 25:10
  Speaker 4: tell me a little bit about this guy, because you
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: want to make sure you have.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: The right people representing your company.
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 25:15
  Speaker 7: We have a team on marketing team that Chloe and
• 25:19
  Speaker 7: Alex and they work on that and they will do
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: a scrub and they're gonna look at all the social
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: media and they're gonna find out everything they can about them, right,
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: and then Gordon's gonna interview them. Yeah, and he's gonna
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: sit down in front of him and gonna ask him
• 25:30
  Speaker 7: what do you like? Tell me, you know, and he's
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: gonna go through it all. And we kind of go
• 25:34
  Speaker 7: through a process of players that we want, Are they available?
• 25:37
  Speaker 7: Is it someone that we can put on the team,
• 25:39
  Speaker 7: And that's kind of how it falls down, and we
• 25:42
  Speaker 7: get to our team.
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: If I was twenty years younger, yeah, we got would
• 25:48
  Speaker 5: you think I'd be invited to be on the G team?
• 25:49
  Speaker 2: And how many billboards would it be?
• 25:51
  Speaker 7: So you from Texas, our goal, My goal is always
• 25:54
  Speaker 7: starting quarterback. And I had this conversation with Marlon whatever
• 26:00
  Speaker 7: somebody podcast with him and he wanted to know his
• 26:03
  Speaker 7: NIL evaluation.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: And so.
• 26:06
  Speaker 7: From Matt, of course big fav one Matt would be
• 26:10
  Speaker 7: I mean, just like Marlon, he would be starting quarterback
• 26:13
  Speaker 7: on a highly ranked team. He would be in the
• 26:16
  Speaker 7: seven figures easily on his rev share plus three buckets.
• 26:20
  Speaker 7: You got your rev share, your scholarship right and your
• 26:23
  Speaker 7: third party in io deals and so L s U
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: and nil. They would set him up with you know,
• 26:28
  Speaker 7: Canes and Jewel Forden and like they would set him
• 26:31
  Speaker 7: up with some third party in io deals and.
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: So you just talked about earlier, Like now that it's
• 26:36
  Speaker 5: pay for play, it's gonna be hard to tell me.
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: I don't have eligibility left, so can I go back?
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: Well, you read shirted your out. I didn't.
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: I suffered through COVID year though.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: You were thirty five. I think that when that happened.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: So you're telling me my wife would not have had
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: to drop out of school and get a full time
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: job because our doolllarship check didn't cover half our rent
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: back in two thousand and seven, Like we'd have done.
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: Okay, your personality and you would have fit so many
• 27:09
  Speaker 7: companies out there, Jacob, you would have you would have
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: done very well.
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: You would have little too early more a little too early.
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: It's okay, wasn't your fault.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, we're glad that, you know, because we'll you got
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: into the back end because you started college.
• 27:22
  Speaker 8: So I started. Yeah, my sophomore year. At the end
• 27:25
  Speaker 8: of my sophomore year is when it really kind of
• 27:27
  Speaker 8: took shape and there no rules, you know, and it
• 27:30
  Speaker 8: was it was a free for all, and so you had,
• 27:32
  Speaker 8: you know, all these different athletes and whatever they wanted
• 27:35
  Speaker 8: for whatever. Yeah, and so now that there's a little
• 27:37
  Speaker 8: bit of structure to it and a little more you know,
• 27:40
  Speaker 8: you know there's rules, right, you know that you know
• 27:42
  Speaker 8: LSU has to follow, that players have to follow, that
• 27:45
  Speaker 8: small businesses, businesses have to follow like Gordon, and in
• 27:48
  Speaker 8: order to pay these players, it's you know, taking shape
• 27:51
  Speaker 8: and like we said earlier, it's not going anywhere, and so.
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: You know, get used to it.
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: How exciting How exciting was it though when you were
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: in the locker room them and all of a sudden
• 28:00
  Speaker 4: you're like, wait, we can do what we can. We
• 28:04
  Speaker 4: can make money off our name, image and likeness. Like
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: what was that moment?
• 28:07
  Speaker 8: Like, well, for me it wasn't you know great, I was,
• 28:10
  Speaker 8: But for a lot of guys, you know, that was awesome. Yeah,
• 28:13
  Speaker 8: you know, and for all athletes at LSU, because you know,
• 28:16
  Speaker 8: it's your name, image and likeness and you put.
• 28:18
  Speaker 4: It on l She does a really good job of
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: embracing it and putting out Think about the LSU brand
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: in itself, you know, as soon as you commit and
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: you play for LSU, you're part of that brand no
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: matter what.
• 28:29
  Speaker 8: And so you know, having the opportunity to you know,
• 28:31
  Speaker 8: link yourself with that brand and your name, image and likeness,
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: it's huge.
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: Let me ask you this from a from from the
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: business owner's perspective, Like I know, a lot of it
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: is because a business owner might love the university, love
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: the players, and want to contribute to that. But a
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: lot of companies they're doing it to get their company's
• 28:52
  Speaker 5: name out there to bring in extra revenue.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: And I would say that's the goal for all of it.
• 28:56
  Speaker 5: But is there analytics out there yet because it's still
• 29:01
  Speaker 5: so early, Like what the return on investment is for
• 29:05
  Speaker 5: business owners.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: That's a great question.
• 29:08
  Speaker 7: And I think aligning yourself with ls people have always
• 29:11
  Speaker 7: aligned themselves with LSU and tried to but now being
• 29:14
  Speaker 7: able to align yourself with a player is just even
• 29:17
  Speaker 7: more me People have a favorite player for sure, and
• 29:19
  Speaker 7: if they're deciding am I going to go here or here?
• 29:21
  Speaker 7: And like ooh, I saw him doing something with you know,
• 29:24
  Speaker 7: Aaron Anderson might be you know or nus Meyer. You
• 29:27
  Speaker 7: know that to be able to evaluate that, it's tough.
• 29:31
  Speaker 7: I know in our world because our marketing personal injury
• 29:35
  Speaker 7: is more of the commercials in the billboards and stuff,
• 29:37
  Speaker 7: so it's probably not our best return of investment. But
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: Gordon's whole deal is number one, I want to support LSU,
• 29:44
  Speaker 7: but two, I want to promote these kids and push
• 29:47
  Speaker 7: these kids and promote these kids, and hopefully they'll get
• 29:49
  Speaker 7: more deals. And if they go up in their name,
• 29:52
  Speaker 7: image and likeness, then we go up along with them.
• 29:55
  Speaker 7: And that's kind of been our attitude and kind of
• 29:57
  Speaker 7: the way we look at it. Why we do the
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: research that we do to make sure that we're aligning
• 30:01
  Speaker 7: ourselves with the proper fits.
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and it is certainly I appreciated seeing all those
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: LSU athletes on all the different advertisement that y'all do there.

  Speaker 7: And my heart seeking Mack say so.
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: Saying, Matthew, how does that feel? Somebody telling you you
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: would have made seven pigres?
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: Uh?
• 32:44
  Speaker 4: You would have had two iPhones on your belt loop
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: if that was the case, not just one.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: I had a just a bigger belt loop. I was flattered.
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: That had been fun. Oh man, somebody said I would
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: have made a ton.
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: Uh yeah, Bilbo, you're right. The amount of Tyron Matthew
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: missed out on the Honey Badger shirts that just Bingles
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: Abandons alone would have sold is insane.
• 33:11
  Speaker 5: Flinny raking in the dough from the no Show ankle
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: socks endorsement.
• 33:18
  Speaker 4: I wear no show ankle socks. It's our age. I
• 33:20
  Speaker 4: get it. I know it's our age.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: These are shows.
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: These are the I wear shows.
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, both the ark I got black no show?
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: What's no show?
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: I ain't wearing a mid calf sock. What am I
• 33:35
  Speaker 4: the basic creative player on n C double.
• 33:37
  Speaker 6: As all the time? Hey?
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: Why do I work these calves out?
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: Hide them? You don't hide that light under a bush.
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: I don't like with myself. It is weird.
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: It was first time I heard it, like probably two
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: three months ago. It's almost say, you're really showing your
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: age with those no shows.
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah, why are people showing their socks?
• 33:58
  Speaker 10: Be honest, I don't know who told you that. Everybody
• 34:01
  Speaker 10: my age wears.
• 34:02
  Speaker 4: Everybody who doesn't, everybody twenty and under mid calf.
• 34:07
  Speaker 3: That's so weird.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: It's like the starting like the crossfits.
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: Wear, like the Nike elites.
• 34:13
  Speaker 6: I mean, I guess, yeah, I guess sometimes I wear
• 34:17
  Speaker 6: long socks, but like usually I wear no shows. I
• 34:19
  Speaker 6: don't think if I'm working out, like maybe like.
• 34:22
  Speaker 10: If I'm wearing a suit, right, I was gonna say
• 34:25
  Speaker 10: the only long socks I own.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: Or dress socks.
• 34:27
  Speaker 5: So growing up it was like, yeah, mid calf, gold toes,
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: the gold have gold toe socks. You got like thirty
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: nine socks in one bag. And then when the like
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: the only no shows were like golf socks and they
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: had like the little the rolled up like little thing
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: on the back on the back of you. And then
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: when they started to become popular, the nose shows. It
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: was life altering. Yeah, it was a game changer. So like,
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: don't you take that away from it?
• 34:57
  Speaker 6: Why do I want to wear vands with like my
• 34:59
  Speaker 6: socks peaking?
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: Now?
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes no sense. That's a bad look. I
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: just good. I got high tops with my socks.
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: Look at that clear definition, that clear definition, you could
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: clearly see where the calf starts in the ankle.
• 35:16
  Speaker 6: You're not even wearing no shows.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah you're not.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. I'm not wearing today, but leg
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: talking about it.
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: So if you're not really in the gang, I only
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: wear no shows, well you kind of oppose it.
• 35:27
  Speaker 5: If I wear high tops, I wear higher socks, makes sense,
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: makes sense to me.
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: If I wear low shoes, I wear no shoes.
• 35:35
  Speaker 10: It's it's weird these little, these little black no shows
• 35:37
  Speaker 10: I wear. I wear those with my boots.
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: Like, yeah, me too, even when even when I'm wearing
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: boots I wear.
• 35:45
  Speaker 2: Maybe my ankles are too big, it just rubs up
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: against them. But I don't want that skin to shoot friction.
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: I won't.
• 35:52
  Speaker 6: I won't say that I have.
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: Like start a fire with those ankles.
• 35:56
  Speaker 6: I wouldn't say I have full on kinkles. But my
• 35:58
  Speaker 6: ankles can't be a little thick.
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: I'm not saying. But I cannot confirm or deny.
• 36:07
  Speaker 10: I can see Matt wearing boots like reaching down. What's
• 36:09
  Speaker 10: the problem these boots are giving me rug burn.
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: They do, I think gold bond from my ankles. Little
• 36:20
  Speaker 2: little chase down.
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: The Oh my gosh, that's good clean fun, good clean fun,
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: good clean fun.

  Speaker 4: on Bourbank, I know where they're at. They're right by
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: the checkout counter. We saw those last week. We'll be
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: there by the way. Oh let's see we did.
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: What's going on in sports this weekend is a lot
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: ooh lots I don't know what's going to be the
• 37:18
  Speaker 4: game of the week, but damn it, one of these
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: games better live up to what I think it's going
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: to be. I think the leader in the clubhouse to
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: live up to it would be the obvious three versus six,
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: Penn State versus Oregon in a whiteout situation in Happy Valley.
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: I think both those teams are good. I don't know
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: if they're great, and maybe we'll find out if one
• 37:38
  Speaker 4: of them is great on Saturday, So that one's hard
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: to get away from for me.
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: It's a big one. It's a big boy like.
• 37:43
  Speaker 4: There it's three versus six, but it very easily could
• 37:46
  Speaker 4: be two versus three or two versus four.
• 37:49
  Speaker 2: Like, there's not a lot of difference in the top
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: six teams.
• 37:51
  Speaker 10: It's not ranked on rank, but I think A and
• 37:55
  Speaker 10: m Alvern it's going to be a really good game.
• 37:58
  Speaker 10: It's a college station, yeah, it's it's a two thirty,
• 38:01
  Speaker 10: so it's it's head to head with LSU will miss,
• 38:03
  Speaker 10: so we won't be watching a ton of it.
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: But that's got a chance to be a really good one.
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: Where is uh?
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: We're gaming to see that game being plunky game?
• 38:13
  Speaker 7: Damn?
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: How are they not at all, Miss.
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: Oran, Oh yeah, Organan say yeah, yeah, it's three or six.
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: Wonder if they'll go, I wonder if they'll go, Oh
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: we got Alcaim, we got Alabama.
• 38:27
  Speaker 5: Georgia forgot like we get this sweet with a lot
• 38:30
  Speaker 5: of answers in that game.
• 38:31
  Speaker 6: Answers, they're not that intrigued by it.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: Really, No, it's not really.
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: Doing much for me for what reason, And that's.
• 38:38
  Speaker 6: Not honestly, Alabama itself is not doing a lot for
• 38:42
  Speaker 6: me this season. I know they're ranged number seventeen, but
• 38:45
  Speaker 6: I just it doesn't have like the physicality and just
• 38:49
  Speaker 6: like the excitement that it used to have.
• 38:52
  Speaker 5: And I.
• 38:55
  Speaker 6: Look so nice soft to me. I don't know, like
• 38:58
  Speaker 6: I don't really know if he is or not, but
• 39:00
  Speaker 6: the vibe that he gives me, I just I'm not
• 39:03
  Speaker 6: intrigued by Alabama.
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: I yeah, I kind of understand what you're saying. The
• 39:08
  Speaker 4: old thing, to Matt's point, that would intrigue me with
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: this game is to see where Alabama is. Because it's
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: so funny how this works, and it happens all the
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: time certainly in our business. We just we overreact to everything.
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: So they lose to Florida State, and we're like done,
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: and then you know, Matt does the bab's parting and
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: like everybody right, and so like like everybody kind of
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: piled on. And then they go beat ULM Louis Monroe
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: seventy three to nothing. Look, ULLM is actually much better
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: this year. But Alabama's always gonna win that game. And
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: they had a point to prove in that game. They
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: were gonna try to score as many as they could. Well,
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: then they come back and they beat Wisconsin thirty eight
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: to fourteen, and we're like, oh man, they beat a
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: Big ten team.
• 39:46
  Speaker 3: Wisconsin's terrible. Wisconsain's a bad football team.
• 39:48
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: So it's like we were high, high high, then we
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: got real low, then we got high again. It's like,
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: should we be that high or we should we be
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: somewhere in the middle. I think we should be somewhere
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: in the middle. But to your point of Landra, like
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: there's not a lot of intrigue into the game outside
• 40:01
  Speaker 4: of where is Alabama from. Yeah, I think it's gonna
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: be right.
• 40:05
  Speaker 6: I just think that like we, like Matt said, and
• 40:08
  Speaker 6: like you just said, we're gonna get answers about who
• 40:11
  Speaker 6: Alabama is from this game. But them like, I'm just
• 40:15
  Speaker 6: not into it. But Georgia is always always fun to watch,
• 40:20
  Speaker 6: so like that part of it, sure, but I'm.
• 40:22
  Speaker 4: Just like that has been kryptonid. I guess a little
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: bit for Kirby, he's only beating Bama one.
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's my thing.
• 40:27
  Speaker 10: I think this is gonna tell us who Georgia is
• 40:28
  Speaker 10: a Georgia correct, I think we know. I kind of
• 40:31
  Speaker 10: think we know who Alabama is. Their team that's gonna
• 40:34
  Speaker 10: beat up on the small ones. And again, I understand
• 40:36
  Speaker 10: they didn't play well against Florida Tody Simpson five incompletions
• 40:40
  Speaker 10: in two games. It's hard to do against anybody, but again,
• 40:43
  Speaker 10: look at the competition. But Georgia has not been able
• 40:45
  Speaker 10: to get over the Alabama home for whatever reason. They
• 40:48
  Speaker 10: did they did one time under Kirby. Outside of that,
• 40:52
  Speaker 10: he's he struggled against the Bama Like, this is gonna
• 40:54
  Speaker 10: tell us a lot about Georgia.
• 40:56
  Speaker 5: It's a line to your point, Andra, like the lack
• 41:01
  Speaker 5: of juice coming from the Alabama program right now for
• 41:03
  Speaker 5: whatever reason, right or wrong, that's how we feel about it.
• 41:07
  Speaker 5: I hadn't watched a snap of Alabama football. Like I
• 41:11
  Speaker 5: told you, I got five games going on at once.
• 41:14
  Speaker 6: The line is Uga minus three and a half.
• 41:17
  Speaker 4: The so almost almost to pick them since in Athens,
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: I mean getting home bombed.
• 41:23
  Speaker 10: The Boar almost looks depressed, like borderline tears.
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Whenever they're losing.
• 41:28
  Speaker 10: It's like it's like there's there's not a lot of
• 41:29
  Speaker 10: juice from him. And I think he's a good coach,
• 41:31
  Speaker 10: but there is just something missing about it.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: But I'm actually intrigued.
• 41:36
  Speaker 10: Just because of the the Georgia aspect, Like I think
• 41:39
  Speaker 10: they're really good and again, how good is Alabama? But
• 41:42
  Speaker 10: if they could at least get over that hump, I
• 41:44
  Speaker 10: think that tells us a lot about them.
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: I think we just talked to ourselves into being excited
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: about the game that we weren't that excited about.
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: Look at us, not me, not I.
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: Now I don't know how much of I'm going to watch.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: I have more in the night game.
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: You can't watch it it is, but it goes up
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: against the air. I'll be watching on the plane. That
• 42:07
  Speaker 3: is always fun. After LSU wins.
• 42:09
  Speaker 4: It is always fun to watch whatever the game of
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: the week is if you have like the two thirty game,
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: So I'll be watching it in the air. That's not
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: a quick or sorry, it is a quick. It's not
• 42:17
  Speaker 4: a long plane ride, but I'll watch it in the air.
• 42:20
  Speaker 5: Do we think Gunnar Stockton is an elite quarterback in
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: the n think it's a good?
• 42:25
