• 0:46
  Speaker 2: That's right. We're going. We're still here. It's all right.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: We'll talk about it. Saints won. If the Saints didn't win,
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: maybe you don't get a yo.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Let's go, Saints.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: Let's go, Saints.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: But you get a yo when they go on the
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: road and beat the Baltimore Ravens as an eight-and-a-half-point dog, okay?
• 1:06
  Speaker 5: Let's go.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: That's the Saints show today, baby. No, it's going to be,
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, look. We'll talk about it. We'll have therapy
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: about it. All right? That's what they say you got
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: to do. You got to talk it out, talk through
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: the pain. That's how you heal. The fastest way to recovery.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: It is. It is. And there's a lot to talk about,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: a lot to get into with that game.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: It's one of those deals where as I was sitting
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: in the booth and you're down 17, and if you'd
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: have told me that at one point in the fourth quarter,
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: it's going to be tied up and.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: You're going to have a chance.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: I called you a liar right to your face with
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: the way that that game was because it wasn't like
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: exactly equal at that point.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: Not at all. Not at all. So, you know, there's
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: a lot to talk about. There's some good.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of bad and there's some stuff that's
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: still in between. But, again, we'll talk about it. But
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: for that football team across the street, they've got to
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: get ready for Texas A & M. And I don't
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: care if A & M lost to Kentucky. They've got
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: to get ready for that. That's a team that's beaten
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: you twice in a row when you've led them at halftime.
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: So there's a lot to get into when it comes
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: to the old LSU Fighting Tigers.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot to work on. And we will
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: certainly be diving into the things that we've seen from now.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: I can't lie to everybody and say that I've uh
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: taking a dive into the film yet uh to see
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: the x's and o's i'm watching it right now i'm
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: in the first quarter still i'm sad i'm sad watching
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: it a little bit but certainly a lot to work
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: on uh good you know it's going into week four
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: so there's a lot of season left and but there
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: will be no excuses made for anybody here on this show.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: I like the way that sounds nobody's safe.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Except us.
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: You know when people are like, a lot of game left.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: A lot of season left. I'm like, oh. You know what?
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: I said it and I was like, I didn't love it. No.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: That sounded really.
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: It sounded like you surrendered.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: It made it kind of. Yeah. It kind of did.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: Because I just watched like the first half of the
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: first quarter on offense. I got real sad. Like I said.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: It wasn't great football.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: No, I mean, I think anybody would tell you that
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: certainly early in that game, it was not what they
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: want to put on tape. Now, I will say this.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: There's no moral victories in sports. I say it all
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: the time. I said it to my flag football team
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: last night. But you do appreciate the fight. That is
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: one thing I did appreciate. Very easily, because I was
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: in the stadium. There wasn't an empty seat. They were
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: locked in. They were engaged, obvious, right? But even being there,
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: I've been to that place a lot of times.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: That's the best it's ever been.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Well, yeah.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, well, I know. And that's another obvious statement. But,
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, it was the best it's ever been. And
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: very easily a team could have gone down 17 and
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: just folded it in in that environment.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: And they didn't.
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: Look, they tied it up and they had all the momentum.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: And I'll be honest with you. If they would have
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: scored instead of kicking the field goal, they'd win that game.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Right. I truly believe that. They'd win that game.
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: Just where the game flow was going, where the momentum
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: was going, and you're down there. It's third and one,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: and you ran the direct snap, and so we'll talk
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: about that as a play.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: You run that.
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: You lose a yard, so you got to kick the
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: field goal. You got to tie it up. If you
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: score there, I think you win the game. And there's
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: plenty of time left. Trinidad goes down, and he scores
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: another touchdown, but I just think it changes the mood
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: and the feeling of the game if you go and
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: you punch one in and you take the lead which
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: would have been 28-24.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: I see what you're saying, and I can support that
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: as an LSU fan, but as a football fan, I
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: don't think you're beating Trinidad Chambliss, especially going down by
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: 17 points, the way he's playing. I don't think you
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: beat him.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: Well, if you think about it, then I don't think
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: they would go for two either at that point. So
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: if they even go down and score the touchdown, then
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: it's 31-28. And then you're down on the five-yard line.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: Then you're kicking a field goal to at least force overtime. And, look,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: overtime with that quarterback, he's got a lot of advantages, right?
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: But you felt like they grabbed some momentum back when
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: they didn't really have any whenever they stopped you and
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: you had to settle for a field goal.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Hey, man, I'm with you. Absolutely. LSU. LSU wins it.
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: That was a big, that was, that was a, um, huge.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, I was, I was feeling all the emotions
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: just like everybody else was. And I was obviously sweating, uh,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: sweating the downs and I was sweating the ups even more. So,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: and I agree with what you're saying. Um, but let's
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: take our hat off to the best player in the
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: United States of America and the college football game. Mr.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Trinidad played his, played his ass off. Um, and playing
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: at a different level than everybody else. Now, certainly they
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: went through a little bit of a scoring lull in
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: the second half.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: LSU, just as you stated. They only scored, what, one
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: score in the entire second half.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: That last touchdown was their only points in the second half.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: But in a game where everything was hyped up, just
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: like you said, the stadium has never been like that,
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: and obviously so. There's never been a buildup quite like
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: this game in a long time in college football. It
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: was one of those games where no matter what the
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: down and distance was, no matter at what period it
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: was in the game, it felt like every single play
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: was going to change the outcome of the game. It
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: was never like, oh, I'm watching this game. Okay, let's
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: set this one up. I was on the edge of
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: my seat every single play. Like, this is the play.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: This is the play of the game right here. Every
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: single one. And that is why sports is awesome. And
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: it was an awesome game. Now, it's frustrating. Obviously, we lose.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: It's frustrating how you lose. You make a lot of mistakes.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: I think from top to bottom, you're the better team.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: But they got the better player who, even though they
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: weren't scoring, he was still making big plays to keep,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: you know, to improve field position, to flip the field,
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: to do different things. And it was impressive to watch.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: It was impressive, but also very annoying.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: It was very annoying.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: It was so annoying.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: It was very annoying to have.
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: I was like, stop it.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, stop doing that, Trinidad. I mean, and I'm not
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: trying to be funny here.
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: Like, when you have these quarterbacks, certainly, and it's really
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: spread across college, but we still have older quarterbacks, too. Like,
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: you can tell they're more composed than, like, you were 21,
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: 22 years old when you were in this moment.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: He's 24. Like, we were in our third year in
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: the NFL. Mm-hmm. At 24.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: And so, and that's not, look, it is what it is,
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: that part of it. But, like, you can tell, like,
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: in the moment, a lot of these quarterbacks, too, have
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: been through it. The moment's not, you know, too big
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: for them. Home or away. And it's a different set
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: of emotions, too. And so, you know, in a game
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: like that, like, it's going to come down to the
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: which player, and certainly the quarterback's going to be the
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: most important here, Like, which one can stay composed? And
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: when the moment presents itself, are you going to be
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: able to go make the play?
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: Ole Miss's quarterback did. LSU's quarterback did not. Yeah. I mean,
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: there was quite the contrast between quarterbacks. Now, that's not
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: a knock at Sam. And I would never put, like,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: the composed stigma on any quarterback that plays the way
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Sam does. I mean, he runs around. That's his game. Like,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: first play the game, he's running around. yeah like a
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: madman right um so like that's not a composure thing
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: that's just the style of play thing and it and
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: look he does it too much there's also part of
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: like as a coach you that has paid off for
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: you already in the short in the three games like
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: it's paid off for you a lot like that that
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: ability that the athleticism, the knack to go make a play,
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: but you've got to hone it in. He's got to
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: start playing within the system. I've watched one quarter of
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: film already, and it's the same thing I've been saying
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: for the first two weeks. He's playing too fast within
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: the system. Way too fast. and with it like what
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: i mean by like like it's not that he's scrambling
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: too much and surrounding too soon he's going through his
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: progressions too fast before the route concepts develop like first
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: play the game he could throw a touchdown on a
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: post yeah like or if he didn't throw the touchdown
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: the post he could have the over route or the
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: backside dig route and it was good protection like yes
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: there was some protection breakdowns and yes there are there
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: are deficiencies with this offensive line But, my God, it's
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: so much better than it was a year ago. Like,
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: you've got to be able to just work the progressions.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: And I have not seen– now, again, I'm only one
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: quarter in, and I know that, like, with the emotions
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: and the buildup to the game, like, yeah, as a quarter,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: you've got to settle into a game. And maybe I
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: hadn't got to that portion, and I know we play
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: better in the second half, but there are plays to
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: be made out there that aren't being made by the
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: starting quarterback. Now– He makes other crazy plays that make
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: you like, wow.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the fourth down conversion to keep the game going.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: And it's like, man, nobody else is making that except
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: for him. Yeah. But he's got to. There is so
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: much room for improvement with Sam Leavitt that it is encouraging,
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: but it remains to be seen if it happens.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: We will see. Now, if he can take that next
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: step and slow down, like they got to be working
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: the coaching on him so much, like go through walkthroughs
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: with him. Do the footwork. Slow your footwork down on
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: your drop backs or elongate the steps on your drop back.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: It's got to time up better. Each hitch that you
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: make as a quarterback, you hitch up once, hitch up twice.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: It's got to match up with the different route concepts.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: He's hitching once, hitching twice. Already he's to the hitch
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: that's supposed to be the backside dig route and he's
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: four yards from his break. Then he's getting off of
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: him because he's not there. He's got to slow down.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: If And, again, this is an if. Yeah. Because this
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: is midseason. We're going into week four after a loss,
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: going against Texas A & M at home. Like, there's
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: a short amount of time to do that. But we've
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: seen it happen. We saw Jaden Daniels do it, like,
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: seemingly overnight a couple of years ago. Tennessee game. He
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: was not playing great football. Right. Like, Jaden Daniels was
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: not playing very good. He couldn't get past the first or, like,
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: past the first read. He certainly couldn't get to a
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: check down. Now, they weren't doing him any favors as
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: far as the play concepts they were getting. But I
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: know he got in the virtual reality stuff, and he
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: started doing all that different things, and it seemed like overnight.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: That kind of progression has to happen with Sam Leavitt
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: because he can do some things nobody else is going
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: to do athletically. And it has already proven to be
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: a huge benefit for your team. But if LSU wants
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: any chance to be consistently good on offense and a threat,
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: which they can be, but it's got to be frustrating
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: as a coach because you have these plays drawn up
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: and there are options available. And sometimes, yes, the protection
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: does break down and he's got to go do his thing,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: but when it's still there, you've got to get through it.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: You've got to slow down.
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: And it's evident, like even watching it live, you don't
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: even have to really watch the tape, but certainly in
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: the tape it's going to show up that he just
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: needs to settle into a game, needs to go through
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: those progressions.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: And also... It's been three weeks in a row. I know.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: And then also... when you have an open receiver, you
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: got to set your feet.
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: Like, I don't care who you are. You're not going
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: to have both feet off the ground and complete a pass. There's,
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: there's going to be, I don't even know if you
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: got in there yet, but there's going to be three
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: plays that you see where there's an open receiver that
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: he does find. And then just, it's an Aaron throw
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: because it's all feet and legs.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Footwork is not good. It's, it's, it's not good. And
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: it's not set now. That's crazy to say because he's
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: such a good athlete. Yeah. And it can't like, it
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: can improve, but like if, If your footwork is not
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: timed up with your route concept, then if somebody flies
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: open and you're midway through your second hitch or you're
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: midway through your footwork or whatever, you're not ready to
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: throw it. Then you kind of got to rush it
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: and push it and your timing gets all screwed up.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: And then on the other side, you talk about footwork
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: and getting the ball out. For Ole Miss on their offense,
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: and I mentioned on the broadcast multiple times, they were
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: respecting LSU's rush enough where if Trinidad got the football,
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: he was either getting rid of it right now or
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: they put him on the move. There was only three plays, Matt,
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: where Trinidad Chambliss dropped back, went through a progression, hit
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: his back foot, and made a throw. There was not many,
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: and certainly not any real deep shots. Only a handful
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: of times. That was their plan. was either get it
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: out of his hand in the pocket quick or put
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: him on the move. And that was their game plan
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: that they had coming in. And I was a little
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: bit surprised that they couldn't ever get Sam in that.
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: They couldn't get him to a point where, okay, hey,
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: get the ball out of your hand. Let's put him
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: on the move. Because I just don't think that he
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: ever found that groove to be able to even call
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: something quick out of his hand, like a very quick, Boom,
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: then we get an easy throw out.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: You did some. I mean, you got a couple here
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: and there. And some get the ball out of your
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: hand quickly. There was big first down conversions. A couple
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: RPOs that did look good. With the first RPO. Oh,
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: when he should have handed it. It was five to
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: block three. Jones would have gone 70, I think. Five
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: guys to block three. That's one of those ones where
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: a pencil almost got broken. Because I saw it live.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: The whole first half, I was screaming. Run the ball.
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: First down. I was, too. Run the ball.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: In the second half, LSU did a really good job
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: of not allowing the score to affect the play calling,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: knowing you have time. There was first down runs, and
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: it changed the complete dynamic of everything they were doing.
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: Because Jones had a day. He had a workman. day
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: of 23 carries, 106 yards, four and a half yards
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: per pop. Like that's what you like in a game
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: like that. If you would have said before the game, Hey,
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: Dylan Jones is going to have a day. You're going
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: to run for 172 yards and Ole Miss is going
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: to run for 63 as a team. You'd felt pretty
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: good about it, about your chances to win the game.
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, and look as bad as it did seem,
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: and certainly early on defensively as well, you still set
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: yourself up with an opportunity to tie it up at
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: the end of the game. And it couldn't convert, of course,
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: and you can point to a lot of different reasons why,
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: but this is still a very good and talented LSU team. Now,
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: how good can they be? There's going to be games
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: that are going to come down to the wire just
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: like that, and you've got to finish it off. The
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: quarterback's got to improve. The line's got to improve. I
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: think everybody knows, like both of us, Play Collins got
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: to improve on the defense. Play Collins got to improve
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: on the offense when it matters. But just like Jake said,
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: second half, I was proud of the fight and proud of,
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: because we've seen teams in the past that the game was,
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: you know, closer than that, and we've seen loafs around
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: on both sides of the ball.
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: From the offense, from the defense, we've seen people that
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: aren't quite playing to the standard effort, the effort center that,
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: LSU Tigers should have. And they did that. So credit
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: to them on that. Now, it doesn't matter. There's no
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: moral victories. And so, of course, we're all disappointed and
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: pissed that we lost. And everybody should be. That's what
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: makes sports beautiful. All right.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: So a ton to obviously still get to when it
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: comes to LSU and Ole Miss. Certainly a lot to
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: get to when it comes to the Saints going on
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: the road and beating the Baltimore Ravens. And we'll try
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: to get to it all here today on OTB. More

  Speaker 3: how was Pelican to Mars? It looked like, you know,
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: it was fun until maybe the end.
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: Yeah, so I guess the first half was kind of whatever.
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: And then they started to really just, like, come back,
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: and it got lit.
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: But, yeah, Pelican to Mars.
• 20:51
  Speaker 6: Was super fun. It was a great time. Away games,
• 20:54
  Speaker 6: we're going to be doing watch parties. They're all season long, so.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Did you say nobody howled at you?
• 21:00
  Speaker 5: No one howled at me, which I was kind of
• 21:02
  Speaker 5: happy about.
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. You did. Write a pretty big check.
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: I did.
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: I'm glad I didn't have to cash it.
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt.
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: I'm not doing that again.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's smart.
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: Just in case.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: That's smart.
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: But yeah, Pelican to Mars was fun, I guess. I
• 21:16
  Speaker 5: was very.
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, for the way the game went.
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: Pelican to Mars itself was fun. The game was.
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: And then I was stressed out and people were kind
• 21:25
  Speaker 6: of making jokes about it, but it's fine.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: About you being stressed out? Yeah.
• 21:30
  Speaker 6: I was like, see, this is why I can't watch
• 21:31
  Speaker 6: games in public because I get like this.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 21:35
  Speaker 6: This guy was like, same girl. Cause I was like,
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: this is just my head in my hands.
• 21:39
  Speaker 5: He was like, me too.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: See, I'm like that too. Yeah. But I'm also on
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: the broadcast.
• 21:46
  Speaker 5: Of the game. I would not be able to do that.
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: My neighbor was with me.
• 21:49
  Speaker 6: She was like, I don't know what you're mumbling to
• 21:51
  Speaker 6: yourself over there, but it's going to be okay.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: Yes. Um, we did, uh, I took the kiddos over
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: Lacey's Lacey's out of town. She's on a little girl's trip.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: And so I took the kiddos over to friend's house
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: just so like, They could play with some friends or
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: watch the game a little bit. Yeah. Snatch them up
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: at halftime. Come on. We got to go. Your kids
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: or the other kids? My kids. It's important. Get your
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: butts in the car. We're going home. I got to go.
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: I can't be around. Yeah. I can't be around people.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: I got to go watch this in the comfort, in
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: the safety. Yeah. I'll say it. The safety of our
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: own home. Yeah. We're not having fun, kids. In the car.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: Let's go over some. No snacks. No snacks. No goldfish.
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: Graham crackers.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: Don't take her graham crackers. Put that apple juice down.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: Hey, I know you just lifted this huge buffet up
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: my stairs, but.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: I'm going to need you to put those graham crackers down. Mr. Jacob,
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: those are snacks. And I'm going to need you to
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: stop eating them. But I'm hanging by a thread. Yeah,
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: but it's not going to put the snacks back. Right.
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: Y'all know what we should do?
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: What?
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: Not right now, but let's open up the text line.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: Oh, I like that.
• 23:05
  Speaker 6: Get some listener reaction to the game, but also if
• 23:09
  Speaker 6: you have questions for y'all.
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: Because I'm sure people got questions.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: No, they for sure do.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: And we're going to spend a lot of hour one
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: on LSU. The Saints deserve a lot of talk as well.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: That was an awesome, awesome victory by them to go
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: on the road, to be such an underdog, and to
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: win the game. And to do it, that's a team
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: and a place that you just typically don't Don't go
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: in there and win like that. So they deserve their
• 23:32
  Speaker 3: own hour as well. But let's do that. Open up
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: the text line. The number is.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: 225-499-1045.
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: There you go.
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: Because, you know, maybe sometimes you don't want your username
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: on YouTube to say what you got to say. So
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: you can do that. Of course, we'll get to some.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: If we see some in the chat during the segment
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: as well, we'll continue doing that. But before we take
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: a break to kind of get back on clock, I
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: just want to go over the team stats real quick.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: Because....
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: They're a little bit closer than you think, but there's
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: some key areas to kind of point out here. First
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: down is Ole Miss 25, LSU 19. Third down efficiency,
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: both teams actually really good. Ole Miss 9 of 15,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: LSU was 9 of 17. LSU 2 of 3 on
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: fourth down, the only one they didn't get.
• 24:16
  Speaker 2: 9 of 17 is really good. Yeah.
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: That's really good. I mean, Jimbo Fisher would even be
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: happy with 9 of 17.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: If you were, like, getting close to 40%, that's a
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: really good day. No, that's close to 50%. That's better
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: than 50%. Yep. College eight. There's one thing I can
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: do is math.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: Fourth down efficiency, you're two of three. The only one
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: you missed out on was the last one that hit
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: the Guardian helmet. Ole Miss was one of one. Total yards,
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: 426 for Ole Miss, 330 for LSU. Ole Miss had
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: 363 through the air.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: You had 158.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: Yards per pass, 7.6 for Ole Miss, 5.9 for LSU.
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: I actually thought that would be a bigger number as
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: far as where Ole Miss was. I thought they would
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: be closer to nine, like watching the game live. And
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: after going back and watching and looking at it, rushing yards, you,
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: you blew them out the water. 172 to 63 penalties,
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: seven for 34 for LSU, eight for 77 for Ole
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: Miss turnovers, one a piece. So when you, in time
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: of possession, LSU was getting crushed in time of possession.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: Then they fought their way back. They actually took time
• 25:22
  Speaker 3: of possession, 30, 15 to 29, 45. And so like,
• 25:27
  Speaker 3: of the analytics of the game, it probably, like, at
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: least for me, and I don't want to speak for
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: anybody in here, I thought it would be more in
• 25:35
  Speaker 3: favor of Ole Miss with just watching the way the
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: game flow was in a lot of those categories that
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: we just said.
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: If you'd have told me they rushed for less than
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: 70 yards and you absolutely shut down Kiwan Lacey, I
• 25:46
  Speaker 4: would have said LSU won this game by two touchdowns
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: because they love to run the ball just as much
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: as you do.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: And, yeah, man, it was just one of those weird
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: things where you look at, like, we were.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: Talking during break, They had something up on the broadcast
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: that said, in the first half, Ole Miss is 7
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: of 9 on third down, but their average yards to
• 26:03
  Speaker 4: go was 11 and a half yards. So you were
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: awesome on first and second down, even in the first half.
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: You just couldn't stop Trinidad Chambliss when it mattered most. And, like,
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: kind of carried over the whole game. Because you shut
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: them down on first and second down, and you shut
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: down Q1 Lacey, and it still didn't matter.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: It was funny about watching Trinidad when you watch somebody
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: really good like that. They make really hard things look easy. Yes,
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: there was a couple of plays where everybody jaw dropped,
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: like the third down conversion, rolling to the right, the
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: corner route, whatever. Those are the plays that are going
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: to be run on that highlight film when he is
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: in New York City at the Heisman Ceremony this year.
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: But it's making plays that look really basic like that
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: I really like, cause he's getting to his progressions really
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: fast and he's making really good reads, making really good throws.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: And it's, it's, he made just a lot of plays
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: that didn't make your jaw drop, but they were really good,
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: efficient quarterback play footwork scrambling out, but scrambling out like,
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: and not doing it like a chicken with his head
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: cut off, but he's scrambling out and then he's buying
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: time as he's to, to give his routes time to
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: develop and his guys time to get open and then
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: making really good throws on the run. So, Just tip
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: of the cap to turn it up. I know you
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: should be in the NFL right now, but you are
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: playing college football and doing it at a very high level. Dude,
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: stepping up with the pocket, hitting those dig routes in
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: the first half. Who do you want that? He's an
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: NFL quarterback playing. And I've said this about guys that
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: get to this level in college. I said that about Jaden.
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: I said that about Burrow. Like, you can tell when
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: a guy is 100% ready and could play in the
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: NFL now and he's still playing college because there is no, like,
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: College and the NFL are not the same, and they're
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: not even close to the same. So if you're ready
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: for one and playing at that level, you're going to
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: be dominant, and he was. All right.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: We'll continue this conversation, and we'll get to some of
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: your texts. Again, 225-499-1045 is the text line. Obviously, get
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: inside the chat as well. I see a bunch of
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: stuff in there. We'll continue breaking it down, and we'll
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: do it right here on OTB.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Off the Bench.

  Speaker 3: All right, let's go to Alondra, who's got the text line.
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: And that thing is heating up.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: I got a text.
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: Actually, I got a lot of texts.
• 30:51
  Speaker 6: Okay, I'm going to just go in the order that
• 30:53
  Speaker 6: they came in. Most of these are the same question anyway.
• 30:56
  Speaker 6: Why is Levitt's footwork so bad? Is that not a
• 30:59
  Speaker 6: day one basic stuff to get down before moving on?
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I haven't. I didn't, like, dissect his
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: game at Arizona State. I think I watched with everybody
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: else in the country when they were making the playoff run. Yeah.
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: Two years ago or three seasons ago now. And it
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: wasn't that noticeable. He seemed to play well, make plays.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know if it's just the
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: comfortability of a new offense, a new type of scheme.
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: And I'm not saying it's like bad footwork. Obviously, he's athletic.
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: But it's not the correct footwork for the past concepts
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: that are being run, if that makes sense. Yeah. Okay,
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: and I'm going to talk about a lot of people
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: that listening can understand under center footwork. There's a three-step drop,
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: a five-step drop, seven-step drop as a quarterback. But not
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: every five-step drop is the same. There's different types of
• 31:57
  Speaker 2: five-step drops according to the route concepts, according to the depth.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: That's why it's important that receivers get the correct depth.
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: If it's supposed to be a seven-step route, go seven steps.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: Because if you go five or nine... the timing doesn't
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: match with the drop. And so his drop is not
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: matching the route concepts. And yeah, there's a lot of
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: play action and I get it. There's this like sexy
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: trend of quarterbacks, like doing a little shuffle drop and
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: like sitting on a platform. Yeah. But there's a couple
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: of guys in the world that do that. Well, Tom
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Brady was one. You're not Tom Brady. Like there's other
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks that train that there's quarterback gurus out there that
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: train the slide shuffle, sit on a platform and, And
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: that's all well and good if you're going to, like,
• 32:42
  Speaker 2: Elite 11s and training to, like, look good in workouts.
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: But it's not– it just doesn't work that well in
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: a system. You still– even if you're in, like, a shuffle, slide,
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: drop back, sit on a platform and wait for somebody
• 32:59
  Speaker 2: to get open, like, you still have to have the timing,
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: the cadence in your mind with how you're– I mean,
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: you're not just standing still. Like, you're standing and you're
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: hitching a little bit. and getting in, keeping your feet moving.
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: And you still have to, he doesn't have that cadence
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: for the offense yet. And the best way to give
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: a quarterback cadence is to give them very specific dropbacks
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: to do in every single route concept. So I don't
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: know what it is. If it's just maybe they're doing
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: that and then he just kind of like gets super
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: hyper during the game. I don't know, but it's, it's
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: whatever it is. They got to get it fixed because
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: if they get it fixed, he can be deadly. He
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: can be absolutely deadly, but it has to get fixed.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: It's easier said than done. All right.
• 33:40
  Speaker 6: Why did the defense stop blitzing when we tied the
• 33:43
  Speaker 6: game up?
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, there was a lot of simulated pressures, too.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: You might see somebody like a linebacker come and call
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: it a blitz when they really ended up just still
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: being four. They were still bringing that. I guess I'd
• 34:03
  Speaker 3: have to specifically know where you wanted the pressure to
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: come from. There was a couple of times, there was
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: only like one time where I was like, ah, they
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: need to bring somebody on that one for sure. But
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: they were doing a lot of, they had the edge
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: defender dropping the coverage and what weeks would wrap around.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: And so still just bringing four, a lot of simulated pressures,
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: at least as I remember in the second half.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't exactly. I mean, I don't remember sitting
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: there watching, thinking that, oh, we should bring it. I
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: think like, bring somebody so often it probably looks a
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: little strange when nobody does come when it's just like
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: the front four four russian i think that probably sticks
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: out but i don't know um i'll get back to
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: you on that after i watch everything the first.
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: Half maybe a few times they're a little too conservative
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: which i mean obviously they played better in the second
• 34:50
  Speaker 4: half i mean that's it's kind of an obvious statement
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: but i mean dude in the past we talked about
• 34:55
  Speaker 4: levitt i mean baker against a running quarterback he's a
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: little too aggressive like i thought he dialed it up pretty.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: Well my second i mean there's Yeah, you can't complain
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: with the output you had in the second half. I mean, look,
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: LSU fought back. They fought hard. And that team's got
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: the right makeup, the right attitude, the right mindset. They're
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: coached well. The second half, the defense gave up one score.
• 35:20
  Speaker 2: They made the adjustments.
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: I mean, you had 17 unanswered.
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: In the first half, there's some things that we'll look at.
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: And when we do our film review tomorrow, we'll point
• 35:30
  Speaker 3: it out. No doubt about it. No question about it.
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: But in the second half, you tighten the screws on
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: a good offense. You fail one drive short.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: And again, I think LSU from top to bottom is
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: 100% the better team, the more talent, the better coaches.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: And everyone's going, oh, they lost, blah, blah, blah. You
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: lost to a really good team. You lost to a
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: good quarterback in a crazy atmosphere in the third game
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: under a coach's tenure. It didn't go your way. I'd
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: like to play them again.
• 36:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: I think credit where credit's due. Trinidad had an awesome game.
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: I thought Pete Golding had a good game plan, certainly early.
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: I thought it was that part of it. You could
• 36:19
  Speaker 3: tip your cap to him. I'd love another crack at him.
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. I'd love another crack at him.
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: They ain't going to beat me twice.
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: It could be the SEC championship game. That'd be a
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: lot of– It'd be their first time.
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: Oh.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: It'd go on their stadium for sure. No matter the outcome.
• 36:35
  Speaker 5: They're probably going to put Texas.
• 36:38
  Speaker 6: A & M put the final scores on the Cubs
• 36:40
  Speaker 6: when they play LSU. Ole Miss is going to put
• 36:42
  Speaker 6: that up in the record.
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: Jake, when you sent us the video pregame, I was like,
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: we can't lose to these guys.
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: They got the college football playoff in their stadium. We did.
• 36:52
  Speaker 2: All right, next text.
• 36:53
  Speaker 6: What do y'all think of LSU only dropping three spots
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: in the polls to number 10? It was a respected
• 36:58
  Speaker 6: loss in the rankings' eyes, it seems like. And I
• 37:00
  Speaker 6: feel like, real quick, like, If you take away all
• 37:03
  Speaker 6: the narratives going into the game, like obviously Pete Golding
• 37:08
  Speaker 6: versus Lane Kiffin, he left, blah, blah, blah. And you
• 37:10
  Speaker 6: just look at it from like it was a road
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: game in the SEC against a top 10 team in
• 37:17
  Speaker 6: the country.
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: I mean, I'm not.
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: Saying I love a loss, but I can look at
• 37:21
  Speaker 6: it as like a quote unquote respected loss, too.
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: I mean, against the best quarterback in the country.
• 37:27
  Speaker 3: I thought they'd go to like 12. I didn't think
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: there would be a huge fall by any means.
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: You lost to the number eight team on the road
• 37:33
  Speaker 4: by a touchdown.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: I think I saw some analytics, and I hate not
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: to give it credit where I saw it, but they
• 37:41
  Speaker 3: put together every national college football media member of who
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: was picking this game, and I think it ended up
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: being like 71% Ole Miss as far as who people
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: that cover this every single day And so maybe there's
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: some of that.
• 37:58
  Speaker 2: Maybe, I don't know.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: LSU was a favorite in Vegas, so it's hard to say.
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: But the people, a lot of people I trust with
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: their football eyes, they actually picked Ole Miss. Game day,
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: Coach Saban was the only one that picked LSU.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: Did you calculate Hunt in that? That, it's Hunt's fault. Hunt?
• 38:17
  Speaker 5: It is Hunt's fault.
• 38:18
  Speaker 6: I agree.
• 38:18
  Speaker 5: Hunt told me.
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: Emotional hedge, Hunt Palmer. Emotional hedge. Yeah. He had to
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: do the show at Cushata.
• 38:26
  Speaker 4: He told me, he's like, yeah, while we're there, I'm
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: probably going to sprinkle some money on Ole Miss to win.
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: That way, if I wake up in the morning, like
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: at least I won money. And then if not, unless
• 38:34
  Speaker 4: you won, I'm happy either way. I've heard of that strategy.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: It's got an emotional hedge.
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 38:41
  Speaker 6: The group chat was in shambles Saturday night that we
• 38:44
  Speaker 6: glossed over the, I sent y'all that hunt, sent me
• 38:47
  Speaker 6: a picture of Big Fave with the cheesecake.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: Wait, I missed that.
• 38:53
  Speaker 5: I was like, no, because we were in shambles. The
• 38:56
  Speaker 5: group chat was active. I was like, is that number
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: one or his second one?
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: He looked so happy. He seemed happy, yeah.
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: I mean, that cheesecake looked good.
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: He looked so happy. I missed that one. Good for him.
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: I hate that I missed that one.
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: I think the only pig I got wrong this weekend
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: on our little station stuff.
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: We do is.
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: Ours.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: Still mad at you, Hunt. I think I got.
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: Every other one right.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: It's Hunt's fault. How'd the pontoon parlay go? Three and one.
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: Which one lost?
• 39:25
  Speaker 5: North Carolina. North Carolina lost by eight.
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: Why are you laughing? Oh, what was the spread? Three.
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: Three.
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: They were up.
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: They were up.
• 39:32
  Speaker 2: Matt got it at plus three. So he just, Clemson
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: came back in the end.
• 39:37
  Speaker 5: Okay, I was with you. I was going to go
• 39:38
  Speaker 5: money line.
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: It's you? You lost the pontoon parlay? I did. I
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: lost the pontoon parlay. No, not me. It's Bill Belichick.
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: It's man boobs.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: It's double Ds.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: He didn't have the chest. I went Mississippi State. One
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: of y'all went West Virginia. No, I went Virginia Tech.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: That's what it was. And they won by like 15
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: or something. Yeah. And then Alondra, you went with?
• 39:59
  Speaker 5: Houston plus six and a half.
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a good game. Yeah, it was.
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: It was fun to watch on Friday.
• 40:05
  Speaker 2: I thought North Carolina had it wrapped. God, the only
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: game I lost was weekend.
• 40:08
  Speaker 5: They were leading.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: Stupid game.

  Speaker 6: Yeah. God.
• 40:10

  Speaker 1: Off the bench with Hester and Flynn, presented by Bayou Automotive.
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: All right, welcome back in.
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: OTB here live from the Raising Cane Studio. Monday show
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: is brought to you by Bayou Automotive.
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: And what are you doing over there, man? You got
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: a little hit in your face. What are you doing?
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: Are you okay, bud? Oh, yeah, just watching film. I
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: always watch film when I'm happy. All right, Alondra, do
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: we have any more questions? Any more texts?
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: Oh, boy, do we. There's so many texts.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: Active text line?
• 42:23
  Speaker 5: We could probably do a whole show on the text line. Okay,
• 42:27
  Speaker 5: let's see. I'll just go from the most recent one.
• 42:30
  Speaker 5: Defense played. Wait, hold on.
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: He had two.
• 42:33
  Speaker 5: Morning, guys. I was at the game and kind of
• 42:35
  Speaker 5: echoing what Jake said. I've been to that stadium a
• 42:37
  Speaker 5: bunch of times. Oh, okay. He's saying about it being
• 42:39
  Speaker 5: the best that they have been. Yeah.
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: They showed up.
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: I felt like.
• 42:44
  Speaker 6: When LSU started fighting back, they kind of took the
• 42:47
  Speaker 6: crowd out until the last drive.
• 42:48
  Speaker 5: They were saying that on the broadcast.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: They did.
• 42:50
  Speaker 6: I felt it was pretty obvious on third downs the
• 42:52
  Speaker 6: LSU defense played too soft in coverage. They kept letting
• 42:55
  Speaker 6: Shambliss hit the 5'8 yard hitch every time they needed something.
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: It was really frustrating to watch.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: Were you surprised by that? Yeah, I mean, I'm always surprised.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: It's always frustrating when that happens. Obviously, there's reasons why
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: you do that as a defensive coordinator, but Yeah, especially
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: once they start doing it a couple times. I'm sure
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: on both sides of the ball, the coordinators want to
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: have some calls back, certainly. It's like that every time. Yeah,
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: was I surprised by it? Yeah, but at the time,
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: I really didn't think about it because Trinidad was on
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: such a heater, I guess. He was seeing it all.
• 43:32
  Speaker 3: Well, when you play a quarterback like that, what is
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: typically the thing that, as a defensive coordinator, you try
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: to go to?
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: Do you try to be more aggressive? Do you try
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: to figure it out? Do you try to allow the
• 43:43
  Speaker 2: rush to get there? I think you try both things.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: And certainly in the second half, it was obviously way
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: better than it was in the first half. Now, I
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: think you start out being aggressive, and that's Blake Baker's
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: tendency always is to be aggressive. It seems like he's
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: always simulating something or bringing something. Yeah, you've got to
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: be aggressive, and if they make you pay for that,
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: then you kind of back off a little bit and
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: pick your times, pick your spots, but Yeah, I mean,
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: sometimes you call those different zones because you're thinking they're
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: going to run a certain play, but then they run
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: three-step timing drops and you can take hitches and RPOs
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: and stuff. Yeah, I think both coordinators probably want a
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: couple calls back, just like every single game.
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: Okay, we'll get one more in.
• 44:27
  Speaker 6: What is the likelihood that Levitt can make the improvements
• 44:30
  Speaker 6: to his passing game at this point in the season?
• 44:32
  Speaker 6: Not seeing open receivers so often is a huge concern.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: It's a footwork. It's footwork. And can you improve that?
• 44:40
  Speaker 2: I'd rather it be footwork than just be that he's bad.
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 44:44
  Speaker 5: You just can't throw.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: You can fix the footwork. Now, how fast can you
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: fix it? It's on him. I mean, it's on the
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: coaches for sure, but it's on him. We just told
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: you about how Jaden Daniels seemingly made a change. It
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: seemed like in one week became a quarterback that was
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: really athletic but struggling to one of the best quarterbacks
• 45:02
  Speaker 2: in the country and then eventually the best quarterback. So
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: we've seen it happen, and we've seen it happen here
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: with that uniform on. So hopefully we'll see it again. Yeah,
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: I think.
• 45:16
  Speaker 3: In any big game this year, it's going to be
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: crucial for him to do the things that we're talking about.
• 45:24
  Speaker 3: He's the quarterback, so it's the obvious statement. But this
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: offense and what it wants to do, what it wants
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: to be, you're going to have to start making some
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: of those where you have open receivers.
• 45:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, those coaches are not harping on him footwork, footwork, footwork,
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: and drilling him footwork every single day. Put him in
• 45:39
  Speaker 2: that virtual reality. If they're not doing those things, they're
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: not doing it right. All right, we will take a break.
• 45:45
