  Speaker 1: Live from the Raising Cane Studio, here's Jacob Hester and
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Matt Flynn.
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: Welcome in OTV here on this Monday morning.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: Sorry about that quiet howl, guys. All good.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Jake, Flynn, Alondra, Tay-Tay, Tazit here with us as well.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: In the house. We got a packed house. Packed studio.
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: A lot to get to. Intern. Free intern. Unpaid intern.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: Very unpaid.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Go ahead and get that out there.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: Else you play football this weekend?
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: They're saying that they did.
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: It's kind of weak. That was fun.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: It was fun until like We were up by 41 points.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: It was still fun. It never was not fun. It
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: never was not fun.
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: That... Well... That's what you paid for right there. My God.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: Did I steal it from you? Did I take that
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: line from you? That's good.
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: We're on the same page right now. We're in sync
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: like the LSU offense.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: That was such a butt whooping that It's hard to
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: even put it into words. Watching it live was just incredible. But, like,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: to go back and to watch it afterwards, I think
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: they kicked their butts even worse when I went back
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: and watched it on film.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Like, when you watch it live, you know, maybe a
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: guy missed a block. Maybe a guy fell down. Maybe,
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: you know, whatever. But you're still excited about it. And
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: you can kind of, you know, sometimes you can tell
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: a little bit here, a little bit there. I said
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: it on the broadcast like 15 times. I was like, Chris,
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: the team speed difference here, I can feel it in
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: real time.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: I don't need to go back and watch the tape.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: From the very, very beginning, from the very start of
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: the game, I was like, LSU looks like they are
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: two times faster than Clemson right now.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: And that was the thing that just kept standing out
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: to me, standing out to me.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: So watching it live, that was my biggest point of
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: emphasis was just the difference in team speed.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: But going back and watching it again, Matt, they.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: It's hard to dominate a team like LSU did Clemson.
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: It was complete and utter domination from as soon as
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: that boot met that ball until the clock hit zero.
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: It was complete domination. You talk about the team speed.
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: And I don't know. You line both these teams up.
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: I don't know how they compare when you compare 40
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: times on a clock. But when you compare how fast
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: they were on a football field, it wasn't even close.
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: And now you can say that's anything. You could say
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: they had more energy. They played together more. They knew
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: what they were doing a little bit better. They were
• 3:36
  Speaker 5: in better shape. I don't care what it was. But
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: they were in, like, sixth gear. And Clemson looked like
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: they were in fourth gear. And that is not a
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: knock against Clemson. That is a credit to LSU in
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: the way in which they played. They were ready for
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: the game. They were excited. You could feel that they
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: were feasting on the energy in Tiger Stadium. Certainly tired
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: of a lot of talk and a lot of noise
• 4:05
  Speaker 5: outside of the building.
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: And my God, did they go and play? Did they
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: execute well? And you're right.
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: You watch that game live and you're just excited. I mean,
• 4:13
  Speaker 5: we're watching it. You're watching it as a commentator, but
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: also a fan. And things are happening fast. The game's
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: moving fast. I'm watching it as a fan on television.
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: And I'm just watching us kick their butt the entire time, right?
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: And I'm trying to look at the X's and O's
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: a little bit while I'm watching, but I'm also cheering
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: and excited and running around the house and high-fiving everybody.
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: But then you go back to the film and you
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: watch it. And I hadn't watched the entire thing. I
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: watched the first quarter and a half. But that's pretty
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: much all you really need to see to kind of
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: get the vibe and see.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: You saw a extremely....
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: Incredibly well-coached football team. There are a lot of similarities.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: There's a couple of similarities on the offensive line from
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: last year.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, not a lot, but it's mostly new.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: Center right tackle. Center right tackle. Yeah.
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: The center right tackle didn't play anywhere near to what
• 5:18
  Speaker 5: they played this past week against Clemson. The entire offensive line,
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: so we, like, last year was so frustrating, beating our
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: head against the wall, like, watching the offense. They couldn't
• 5:30
  Speaker 5: pass off, like, a tackle in game. They couldn't pass
• 5:35
  Speaker 5: off one. Well, guess what they did the first play
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: of the game? They passed it off, and it was, like, beautiful.
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: It was beautiful. The entire game, the offensive line, I
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: was impressed with everything.
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: I was impressed with Sam. I was impressed with the receivers. Oh,
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: my God, I was impressed with Dylan.
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: But I came away extremely excited about the offensive line.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: My God.
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: Y'all know that I don't think things are much sexier
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: than a good pass protection and sorting a bunch of
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: crap out that the defense is going to throw to you.
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: And they did it. And I was excited. So that
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: tells me right there. So the energy in which they played,
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: but the offensive line, how well they played and in
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: sync and how well coached they were, that tells me.
• 6:18
  Speaker 5: But this isn't just like, man, they just came out
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: and they out-energized them. They were more ready for it.
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: That tells me they are well-coached and they are good. And, like,
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: the team as a whole is set up for success
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: the entire season just because I was watching how good
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: that offensive line was sorting things out. I know the
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: attention to detail that this offensive coaching staff has provided them.
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: I know that they've provided them with the technique, and
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: they have the skill, but they've provided them with the technique,
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: And how to do it.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: There was a strain, too, from that offensive line that
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: we didn't really see a year ago. There was a strain.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: There was a confidence. There was a swagger to them.
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: You can tell. It's hard for offensive linemen to have swagger, okay? Like,
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: it just is what it is. It's a nasty position.
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: It's a dirty position. It's a rough and tough position.
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: But they did it. And you can tell by the
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: speed in which they pass things off. So first play
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: of the game, the defensive end comes up two steps
• 7:17
  Speaker 5: and then loops back around.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: Jordan Seaton, my God, what a performance. What an opening
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: statement for him at LSU. He sees it, boom.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: He gives a little elbow pressure, shoulder pressure to his
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: left guard that tells him, hey, I'm passing it off
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: to you.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: And they just passed it all off. They just passed
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: it all off. It was beautiful. I saw that first play,
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: and I was like, my God, I.
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: Can already tell you Jordan Seaton is a man-child. I
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: can already tell you he's got football IQ. So that
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: was the thing I was most excited about leaving, because
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: it was so bad last year. I can tell that
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: they are so well-coached this year, and they were so
• 7:59
  Speaker 5: poorly coached in the past. And then we can stop
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: talking about that, the past. We can talk about how
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: awesome it is now.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: That's right. That's right.
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: I mean... And we'll cover every angle of it today.
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: But even going back in some of the bigger offensive
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: moments that you had in the past, a lot of
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: it was some incredible individual effort. This was a complete
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: team effort on both sides of the football. And that's
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: how you get to some of these stat lines. Typically,
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: I don't bring the stat sheet in here, but I
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: got it.
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: After the game. I'm doing the post game. You talk stats, right?
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, I'm bringing the sheet. to talk about
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: on Monday morning on OTB. By the way, the game
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: got so out of hand, I told you all this,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: I started throwing OTB-isms into the broadcast.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: I was like, let me see how many I can get.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: I probably did. I definitely threw.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: A capital city in there. And, like, I'm chuckling over there.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: You threw a capital city?
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: I threw a capital city in there.
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: How many times did you say boot meets ball?
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: Oh, at least seven. Methinks, who saw on Longstreet? We'll
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: run it here. Also, he's going to line up at
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: punt returner. We'll get to that as well. Saw that. Yeah. Yeah.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: Everybody's like, was that? I was like, yeah, that's number eight.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: That was him.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: That was him out there. A couple things that just,
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: it's almost ludicrous. Like, it's like you're playing NCAA, the
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: video game. First downs. LSU set a school record 38.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Clemson had eight. And most of those came on their
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: last drive. Rushing yards. LSU ran the football. 58 times
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: for 309 yards.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: Clemson ran it 26 times for 40 yards.
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: Total offensive plays, 48 total. 48 total for Clemson. I
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: think LSU had 47 in Clemson's territory, and they ran
• 9:52
  Speaker 6: 94 plays overall to Clemson's 48.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: Time of possession, 36.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: For LSU, 23-51 for Clemson. Third down conversions, 11-16 for LSU,
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: 1-13 for Clemson. I mean, we could, I mean, honestly,
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: you could just continue going on down the stat sheet,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: and every one of them seems more ludicrous than the
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: one before. 5.22 yards per rush is pretty decent.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: That's okay. If you're into that. If you're into that
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: sort of.
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: Thing, I guess. I'm trying to think of, you know.
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: I mean, like, what was the longest run of the day?
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: I'm trying to say, like, well, if you take that
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: one away, then it's.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: God, you can't do that because that person ran that,
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: and you don't fall down. It truly did that.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: If I hear somebody say that today, I'll punch them
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: right in the face. Dylan Jones, 15 yards was his long.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Sam Leavitt, 18 yards. Stacey Gage, 12 yards. Landon Clark,
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: 8 yards.
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: It wasn't like a huge point. We're 5.22 yards per carry. Now,
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: it does help scrambles, certainly. Scrambles certainly help that number.
• 11:06
  Speaker 5: Sam Leavitt with 113 total yards rushing. I need to
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: go ahead and just get this over with. I knew
• 11:11
  Speaker 5: he was athletic. I didn't know he was that. I
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: didn't know he was that twitchy.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't think anybody did.
• 11:17
  Speaker 6: No.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: I don't know how much caffeine he had.
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: They put him like a new foot.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: I saw somebody say this on Twitter, and gosh, I
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: promise you I'll search to make sure I accredit it.
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: They said he's like a squirrel who got into the
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: medicine cabinet.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And just took everything. It's a squirrel in Adderall.
• 11:41
  Speaker 7: Like, straight line speed I knew he had, but there's
• 11:44
  Speaker 7: a play, it's like early third quarter, runs up the middle,
• 11:47
  Speaker 7: stops on a dime, runs to the left.
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: Like, I mean, it's just, nobody could touch it. Like,
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: certainly not smooth.
• 11:53
  Speaker 8: Right I mean it doesn't look like I was I
• 11:56
  Speaker 8: was watching him run I was like my god I
• 11:58
  Speaker 8: was like Sam Leavitt looks like he's got the zoomies
• 12:00
  Speaker 8: out there yeah like and he's always leaning forward like
• 12:03
  Speaker 8: he like I was sitting there and Lacey's like every
• 12:06
  Speaker 8: time like he falls he falls forward for like three
• 12:09
  Speaker 8: or four yards he's always moving forward it certainly wasn't
• 12:12
  Speaker 8: smooth but I think that kind of helps I think
• 12:14
  Speaker 8: it kind of helps like it's kind of hard to
• 12:16
  Speaker 8: get a good hit on him it's hard to get
• 12:18
  Speaker 8: good angle on him, and he's moving so quickly.
• 12:20
  Speaker 5: He's gaining so much ground. He's leaning forward the entire time.
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: And I was just like, and then he kind of
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: does that. He's got a little hitch in his get-along
• 12:27
  Speaker 5: a little bit, and he's like. And I'm like, my God,
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: this kid looks like he's got the zoomies up.
• 12:32
  Speaker 7: Think about his second rushing touchdown. He has his back
• 12:34
  Speaker 7: to the goal line, and he falls back. Sticks the
• 12:37
  Speaker 7: ball out of him.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: Two different times, Clemson fully expected him to just run
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: out of bounds. And then when he didn't, he put
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: his foot in the ground and went north-south, and it
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: kind of surprised him.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: So the defender in.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: Front of him both times kind of just, like, stood
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: there and got frozen a little bit because they just
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: fully expected him to kind of give up on the play.
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: And so there's an aggressive nature, too.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Now, as the season goes along, you've got to pick
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: and choose whenever you take some of those chances. Right.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Maybe to take a big hit.
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: Not against Louisiana Tech.
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right. Yeah, yeah.
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: We don't need that. I don't need Sam to have
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: 113 this week. Just don't need it.
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: They're going to smash Ole Miss.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: There you go.
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: I mean, if– The team that us, okay, so that's
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: going to be the hard part of this week.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah. In the next couple of weeks.
• 13:24
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry, the next couple of days is trying to,
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: you know, go through the film, certainly share what we
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: learned through the film with you, the listener, but try
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: to decipher just how good, based on one game, you
• 13:40
  Speaker 5: can't do it off one game, but you can pick
• 13:42
  Speaker 5: and choose little things. Like I talked about the offensive
• 13:44
  Speaker 5: line execution. You can see things that are going to
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: make a good team for an entire year.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: Now there's, there's games people have where you get lucky. No,
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: I'm not lucky. You make your own luck. Right.
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: I hate the word lucky when it comes to sports,
• 13:58
  Speaker 5: but like you make your own luck, but like somebody
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: gets right. A lot of luck, a cornerback like falls down.
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: You hit like. Yeah.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: But we're, we're going to share as much as we
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: can with you from the film, but the hard part
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: is going to be to decipher how good is LSU
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: based on his performance or how bad is Clemson?
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: I think it's both.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's definitely a combination of both. I saw a
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: lot of loads.
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: Clemson is bad.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: I saw a lot of loads from Clemson.
• 14:20
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: And if it, honestly, like if the score would, would
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: have been, I don't know, 35, 14, I'd be like,
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: it's definitely cause it is, it is a combination of both. Um,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: But the way that LSU handled Clemson, I kept saying this, too,
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: on Saturday night. Clemson is not where Clemson was years ago.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: I get that.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: But what you're doing on this field would have been
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: impressive against directional school U, against an FCS team.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: It does not matter.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: I said, but the fact that you're doing this against Clemson,
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: I know they're not where they were. It's still Clemson.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: It's still Davo Sweeney. It's still Tom Allen. being your
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: defense coordinator, it's Chad Morris being your OC, and Chad
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Morris is, we'll talk about that in some of the
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: plays he ran from 2012. Rich Passacci is a special
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: teams coordinator. They've got coaches. So I'm with you. It
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: is a combination of both, no doubt about it, but
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: you're never supposed to make Clemson look like LSU did
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: on Saturday.
• 15:20
  Speaker 7: That's why I pulled this up. You were talking about
• 15:21
  Speaker 7: Clemson players quitting. Watch the guys look the goal line.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Those guys all thought he was going like... Yeah, they
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: just stood there. They just assumed that he was going
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: out of bounds.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: I mean.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: And I'm not going to say... And I say there
• 15:38
  Speaker 5: were loaves. And I say there was just some... Clemson
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: played like it was a first game.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah. That's the play rate.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: They did not look good.
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: They played like it was a first game. LSU, of course,
• 15:49
  Speaker 5: made them look like a high school team. So the
• 15:53
  Speaker 5: question will be answered throughout the season. How good is LSU?
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: How bad is Clemson? Is Clemson bad? We don't know.
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: The way that LSU executed. Who's beaten him this past week?
• 16:06
  Speaker 5: Just like if you just take a play like that.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: In a bubble. This one day in a bubble. Matt,
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: find somebody out of position.
• 16:13
  Speaker 7: Find a blown coverage on Saturday.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: I only saw like one.
• 16:19
  Speaker 7: At the end of the third quarter, I see Deshaun
• 16:21
  Speaker 7: Spears and Tamarcus Cooley running off the field.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, hey, they played. I haven't seen them
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: all day because nobody's beaten them.
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: I didn't see many missed blocks. On offense, it's hard
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: to tell a lot of, like, missed assignments. It's hard
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: to tell, like, when you're watching and you don't know
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: the offense. But, like, you just look at one-on-one block. Like,
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: it was a complete and utter ass-whipping.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: Very little penalties. Love to see that.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: Sorry, Tuz. Earmuffs. Yeah, I think you end up having, what, six?
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: Six, I think is what it was.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think Clemson only had five. It was
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: a clean game from that standpoint. Our Dylan Jones take
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: is standing pretty tall right now.
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: He's going to have a million rushing yards.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think it's going to be running back
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: by committee. Doesn't look like it.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: I won't forget that Taylor put that video out when
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: we were talking about Dylan Jones, and he was going
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: to be RB1, and he was going to get the
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: majority of the carries or whatever. And there was a
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: lot of people that just didn't believe them.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: Like, look.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: I don't care who plays running back at LSU, but
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: just based off what our eyes are telling us and
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: our conversations from over across from the Ponderosa.
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: He's going to be the guy. And he's being asked
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: to do a lot. He played.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: I said during the game, I'm like, okay, Jack Smith,
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: Clemson's punter and Dylan Jones deserve extra postgame meal.
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: Because of all the work that they're doing here tonight.
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: He's doing a lot of work by carries, but he's
• 17:51
  Speaker 5: being asked to do a lot in the entirety of
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: the offense. When I'm talking about full field scanning, picking
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: up blitzers from the backside, cross-keying from one side to
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: the other to pick up a safety, nickel, a corner,
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: whoever it is, like a double A-gap pressure when he's
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: got to stick his nose in the A-gap and hit
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: a linebacker in the face that's running full speed at him,
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: doing it.
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: Stacey Gage did, too, on that one. Touchdown on the
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: pylon route. Yep.
• 18:19
  Speaker 5: They're being asked to do a lot, and nothing seemed
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: too big for any player that was out on the field.
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: So congrats, LSU. Congrats, LSU fans. Congrats to Lane and
• 18:30
  Speaker 5: his team. What a statement.
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: All 78 of them.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: All 78 of them. Yeah, now.
• 18:36
  Speaker 4: I guess the 78.
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what I mean? Come on. Give yourself
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: over to it. I think. Why not go for triple digits?
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: Let's have 100 next year.
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: Let's get 100. If you can buy it. Why not?
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: All right. P. Martin, congrats. Hell of a job.
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: Say, well, it looked great.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: So ready. Well, I'm excited. Yeah, we should be.
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: What are we going to try to do? Are we
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: going to try to watch the film on here? I
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: know we're going to do our big film tomorrow.
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: We're going to do some plays. We're going to do
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: some plays. We have to. We've got to find that gourd.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: We're going to do some plays.
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: I already found it. It's up to you at this point.
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: We didn't do the walkthrough. No. Wee, you got a
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: mouse in your pocket? Yep. You're the one who hooks
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: it up. I was talking about me and twos. Yeah. Twos,
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: let's go. Get it together. Do your job.
• 19:26
  Speaker 4: She got her squishies back here.
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: Do your job. We got a neato. We got a
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: butter squishy.
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: I like the fuzz ball.
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: The fuzz ball is nice. Dude, Daniel mentions Blake Baker.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: We'll talk about it. We might talk an hour.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we might talk like. We're not defensive guys, but
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: we are when it comes to Blake Baker.
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: I just spoke like seven minutes on the offensive line.
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: without breathing, I think. So, yeah, we're going to talk
• 19:52
  Speaker 5: about Blake Baker.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was chef's kiss. All right, we got to
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: take a break. We're going to be. Hey, man, 10 million.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: I'm going to try to stay on the clock.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: Not great, but a lot of exciting things to talk
• 20:04

• 21:34
  Speaker 7: Fingertips and memories, I can't forget the curves of your body.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: And when I feel a bit.
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: Naughty, I rhyme it up with flagpole and sea.
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: Who still looks, but no one ever does.
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: I'm not sick, but I'm not well.
• 21:49
  Speaker 9: And I'm so hot, cause I'm in.
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: Town.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: Coming back with a little Channel One.
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: If you don't know what Channel One is.
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: You didn't get to experience the TV rolling into your classroom.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: Watched a little 30-minute news program that was run by teenagers.
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: We talked about this. You had Channel One, right? You
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: had Channel One, right?
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. All right. I'm not watching
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: this video. I'm not crazy. Okay, good. A lot to
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: get into an hour.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Number two, I would probably say is when we'll kind
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: of get some clips up here. And for our radio listeners,
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: don't worry. We'll kind of describe exactly what we're seeing.
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: Certainly.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: I want to go over the pick six and just
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: the beautiful call on defense there, because as I'm watching
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: the game, I kind of assumed it was something different
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: when you break it down, and Matt and I were
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: talking about it yesterday. All the things going on and
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: all the little bitty things that made that play what
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: it is, remarkable. Same thing with the Watkins touchdown, the
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: long touchdown there in the corner of the north end zone.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: So we'll get to all of those plays, but now
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: we're just continuing to talk about individual efforts that became
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: team efforts.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: The receiver room for LSU.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: We didn't really know who it was going to be,
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: Right before the game, honestly, I'm going over to LSU
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: sports information, and I'm like, okay, of these 11 guys,
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: which three are going to go out there for the
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: first play?
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: Because they've got to do starting lineups.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: And not because you didn't have them, because you just
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: didn't know which ones were going to be the main guys.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: And Winston Watkins Jr.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: Has seven catches, 110 yards, had 11 targets, had 47
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: after the catch, had a long of 32, and of
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: course had touchdowns. Trey Daz Green had six targets, came
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: down with four of them for 58 yards, 36 yards
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: after the catch. Trey Wilson had five targets. He caught
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: four of them for 35 yards. And then Phillip Wright
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: had three targets, three catches, 70 yards, and a touchdown.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Phillip Wright III certainly flashing. Tay-Tay, that is a guy
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: that you have talked about ever since he's been on campus.
• 24:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah, we had a really good fall camp. I mean,
• 24:18
  Speaker 7: the last two, two-and-a-half weeks of fall camp, He was
• 24:21
  Speaker 7: running with the ones a lot, and that's why I mentioned, like,
• 24:23
  Speaker 7: if you have a five- to six-man rotation, Phillip Wright's
• 24:26
  Speaker 7: going to be in that.
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: I thought he was awesome on Saturday.
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: Phillip, I want to ask you from being a quarterback,
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: and you had– I mean, you had main targets in 07,
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: but it was a little bit of early deuce set, right?
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: It's a little bit of JoJo LaFell. It's a little
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: bit of Demetrius Bird. Like, you– Richard Dixon certainly had
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: his time. So, I mean, certainly– I mean, it.
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: Had to be a lot of people because early was
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: out for– Six games, right?
• 24:51
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, you spread the ball out. I mean, the Mitchells,
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Jared and Chris Mitchell, they got in there as well.
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: Is it something, as a quarterback, do you want that
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: number one target? Like, do you just want guys to
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: do their job?
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: Do you care? Do you notice?
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: Do you just read the coverage? Do you throw it
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: where it's supposed to go? Because you really– I don't
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: think you necessarily had a number one guy in 07
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: just because it could change from game to game.
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: I mean, having a true number one is– obviously a
• 25:20
  Speaker 5: huge benefit for a quarterback because that means you got
• 25:22
  Speaker 5: a really, a really standout good wide receiver out there.
• 25:27
  Speaker 5: Not necessarily because you're going to do like snap it
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: and look directly at that person, but it's just because
• 25:34
  Speaker 5: you got to really a number one receiver means you
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: got a dynamic playmaker. That's going to get open a lot.
• 25:38
  Speaker 5: It's going to be body friendly. He's going to make
• 25:41
  Speaker 5: plays when he gets the ball.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: In your hand.
• 25:43
  Speaker 5: Um, But, you know, it certainly didn't have, like, that
• 25:47
  Speaker 5: number one guy.
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: I mean, we did go into the season. It was
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: early going into the season. My year. So we don't know.
• 25:58
  Speaker 5: But, I mean, you read through the play. Like, you
• 26:01
  Speaker 5: call a play to beat a coverage. And one play,
• 26:04
  Speaker 5: it might be, your read might be one thing against man.
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: But then you get zone, it's a completely different thing.
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: It's the same play, but you're reading it out differently.
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: So it's not necessarily one of those things that it's,
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: all right, I'm going to pick this guy over that guy.
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: Unless you just have like a completely even route tree
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: on both sides, you get man to man coverage. You
• 26:25
  Speaker 5: don't like dislike any, any of your receivers. There's not
• 26:29
  Speaker 5: necessarily one DB you're going against. Like, cause sometimes you'll
• 26:32
  Speaker 5: go up to the line of scrimmage. And if you
• 26:33
  Speaker 5: have man to man, you're choosing sides, which side you
• 26:35
  Speaker 5: want to work. Sometimes you go up to the week cornerback.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: If you have a week and that's what, that's your,
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: that's your part of your preparation throughout the week is to.
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: To find the fish on defense. You know what I mean?
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: It's to find that person on defense, that corner that
• 26:49
  Speaker 5: you want to attack if it comes down to a
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: situation where you get straight man-to-man. But then sometimes, I mean,
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: I just never had that to where it was like
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: I had that Terrell Owens type guy where no matter
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: who the DB was, I was throwing it at him.
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: Wasn't that situation. I guess I did have Terrell Owens
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: on my team.
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: If Terrell Owens would have just caught that.
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: Stupid pass in Seattle. I did. I targeted him five times.
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: Zero completions to him.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: One hit him right in the hands. We didn't have beef.
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: We were kind of cool. 55 yards. Except that game.
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: Except for that game.
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: And then I was the backup after that one.
• 27:32
  Speaker 3: And I digress. But LSU looked good. Oh, they really, like,
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: in all aspects. Who was the first player of the game?
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: Was that Eugene? Was that? Yeah, Trey Wilson. Trey Wilson. But,
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: I mean, Eugene. Yeah, Eugene was his name. He's a third.
• 27:46
  Speaker 9: So they call him Trey.
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: So they call him Trey. Got it.
• 27:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 27:50
  Speaker 4: But, yeah, Eugene, you were correct. His name is Eugene.
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: Okay. Got it. I was just looking at the roster. No,
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: I'd rather be called Eugene. I was just looking at
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: the roster, guys. That's all. Right. But that was his
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: only catch. No, no, no. No, no, no, no, no.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: He had four catches, 35 yards. Did he have a touchdown? Oh, shoot,
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: I was looking at the wrong column here.
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: I was thinking Watkins, I think.
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Watkins had one, Wright had one.
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: Third quarter, Matt, when Levin got hot, that was kind
• 28:13
  Speaker 7: of the Trey Wilson when he racked him up.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: That's what I was kind of looking at.
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: So first play of the game, you can figure out
• 28:19
  Speaker 5: a lot early on what you want to try to
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: do throwing the ball about, at least the coaches.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: Just because you have.
• 28:24
  Speaker 5: A receiver– that has leads and catches and yards for
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: one game doesn't mean he's technically, in the coach's eyes,
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: the number one guy. Well, they certainly did a four-by-one
• 28:36
  Speaker 5: formation first play of the game and threw it to
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: Trey Wilson backside one-on-one. So the old oop-dee-oop first play
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: of the game, basically, is kind of what they did
• 28:47
  Speaker 5: to throw it to Trey Wilson. So that kind of
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: tells me a little bit right there.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: The one Mississippi Valley State used to do back in
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: the day? Yeah, they did.
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: Hey, I have four strong. You get one-on-one backside. And
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: if you don't know that reference, you don't know this show.
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: They had about four people open as well on that first.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: They did. I mean, even the second one was. Absolutely. 100%.
• 29:06
  Speaker 5: That's the read. Like, if you get one-on-one backside, you
• 29:08
  Speaker 5: take it. You don't like trying to hit a corner,
• 29:10
  Speaker 5: but you take it.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: LZ on the second one. Nice play design.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: He pushes up and then comes straight across the line.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: It was a little bit on the back shoulder there,
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: but you still, you're going to want to catch that one.
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: This level of ball. Yeah.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: When the ball goes up in the air though, who
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: knows the DBs right there and it falls into his lap.
• 29:26
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: That was on Sam. I mean, that's yeah. You want
• 29:28
  Speaker 5: him to catch it. It's hard when you come in
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: to the quarterback like that. He throws it low and
• 29:32
  Speaker 5: away hard. That was like an early game, a little
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: bit of nervy throw. It's a three-step timing, so your
• 29:41
  Speaker 5: left-right footwork. He gets press man, so it takes him
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: a second to get to his brakes. He's got to
• 29:46
  Speaker 5: fight through. So you've got to hit your back foot.
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: You've got to hit your right foot and plant it
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: and put your weight on it. He kind of hopped
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: back a little bit instead of having his– so if
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: you get press man and you're in the shotgun– your
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: left foot, right foot, plant on your right foot. He
• 30:03
  Speaker 5: didn't plant it. He just kind of stepped back, kind
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: of made him a little inaccurate, a little nerves early
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: in the game. A lot happened, and we can understand
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: that your fine motor skills footwork may be a little.
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: Off on that one.
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: If that would have happened second drive, I anticipate that
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: I would suggest that he probably makes a better throw,
• 30:21
  Speaker 5: better footwork.
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: And before we go to break, the thing that I
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: was like, okay, this feels different. was as soon as
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: that happened, okay, so Clemson gets the ball on LSU's
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: 33-yard line. You've got, like, a four-yard run, but there
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: wasn't a lot of space there, and then a negative
• 30:38
  Speaker 2: two-yard run, then incompletion.
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: Like, you didn't give them anything.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: You gave them two yards in that entire drive, and
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: anybody that's ever played football, like, Clemson should have had
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: so much momentum.
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: They're away.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: They got a turnover. They've got almost guaranteed points, and
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: it did not matter. And you're going off your script
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: still a little bit. You're probably not going down the
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: first 15, but you're going your first red area plays,
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: your best red area plays in that moment. You got
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: two yards, you make a field goal, and then LSU
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: comes and they answer with their own field goal. And
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: it just felt like from that moment, because after that,
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: Clemson was punt, interception, punt, punt, punt, punt, end of half.
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: So, Against the.
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: First team and really the second team defense too, that
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: was the threes they scored against. That was the most
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: success that you had, was like that first down four-yard run.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: Truly dominant in every aspect of it. All right, we
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: will step away. We've got more coming right back your way.
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: Stay locked in, OTB.
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Off the bench.
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: All right, go to sensorplumbing.org, sensorplumbing.org.
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: Now, if you would have had an issue during the game,
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: You give them a call, and they're going to be
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: there every single time. That's in Baton Rouge, the entire
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: greater Baton Rouge area. That's Lafayette now as well. Now,
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: you know, oftentimes, like, it's a closer game. Like, this
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: hits a little bit harder.
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: But it doesn't matter. It is nights. It's weekends. It's
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: game day. It's holiday.
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: If you have an emergency, Central Plumbing is always going
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: to be there for you. It's not the only thing
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: that they do, though. If you're looking to remodel at
• 32:19
  Speaker 2: your home, at your business, they can come in. They
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: can completely change your space. They can be there from
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: the very beginning, too. If you're just building for the
• 32:27
  Speaker 2: first time at your home or business, go to centralplumbing.org.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: For more information. Yeah, sometimes we have a big loss. Like,
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: you just want to flush it, right?
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: Dabo is trying to flush this loss this past week,
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: but it's going to be hard to flush. If your
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: toilet's hard to flush, give Central Plumbing a call. Centralplumbing.org.
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: Centralplumbing.org.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: Off the Bench with Hester and Flynn, presented by Bayou Automotive.
• 33:27
  Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: OTB here, live from the Raising Cane Studio. Of course,
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: our Monday show is brought to you by our friends
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: over at Bayou Automotive. BayouAutomotive.com is the website. Go there today.
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: The last time the LSU ran for this many yards
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: was the day that Jaden Daniels basically won the Heisman
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: Trophy against the Florida Gators in 2023.
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm. It's been a long time.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Their last game over 200 yards was against Western Kentucky,
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: I think, in 2024. This was different. Jaden got a
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: pretty good warm reception. He did not. Which I think
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: is a little bit.
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: Over the top. I get it, but I don't get it.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: Anyways, this wasn't like– that day, Jaden Daniels was Superman.
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: He had his cape out. Right?
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: And it still happened. And it was one of the
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: best performances that I can remember. I mean, and it
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: was against Florida, so it made it even that much
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: more special. But this was like a total team effort
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: running the football. It was multiple people. It was different ways.
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: I saw, and we're not here to beat up on
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: what it was last year. Y'all know what it was
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: last year. Well, you know what I mean, though. Like,
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: we already know. It's one of my favorite things to do.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: We've talked about that so many times, though. Like, I
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: think our listeners understand that.
• 34:49
  Speaker 8: Mm-hmm.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: And, again, another thing we talked about on Saturday, I
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: was like, I've seen more run concepts in the first
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: 10 runs than I did all of last year.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I really did.
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: So in the first 10 runs, I saw four different
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: concepts of runs. And as a running back, like, you
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: have to have that. You can't just be an inside
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: zone team. Like, you can't just be a zone team
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: in general. Like, you have to run other things. Even
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: when we were in the stone age of offense and
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: just running what we used to run back in the day,
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: compared to what it is now, we were going to
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: run everything.
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: We were going to run stretch. We were going to
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: run inside zone, outside zone.
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: We certainly were going to run power and run counter
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: and ISO and everything. So not just zone and man
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: and gap scheme. I'm just talking about different variations of
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: all those different things. I remember going back to the
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: 05 Peach Bowl. And we're running stretch behind Andrew Whitworth.
• 35:50
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, oh, this is easy. You want football
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: super easy. Yeah.
• 35:56
  Speaker 2: Like really, this is my first time kind of really
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: getting to tote the rock behind that. You know, I'm like, well,
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: is it all, is it always.
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: Going to be like this?
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: But I saw so many different schemes. I'm like, this is,
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: this is half the battle. It doesn't matter how good
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: you are running back. If you're just continuing to run
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: the same play over and over again. Now, Dylan Jones was...
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: It's setting yourself up as a coaching staff. Yeah, it's
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: keeping the defense guessing.
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: It's running different types of running plays so you can't
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: tee off and get used to one thing, and it
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: keeps them guessing, keeps them on the heels a little bit.
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: Running different plays.
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: Gives maybe an eighth of a second advantage to your offense,
• 36:36
  Speaker 5: and sometimes that's all that matters. It's the difference between
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: two and four yards.
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: But it's also a difference between.
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: being well coached, like setting up your offense when you're
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: running the ball for success, giving in the coaching, give
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: them the aiming points, giving them the tools, the footwork,
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: the mindset. I saw more good plays from Weston Davis
• 37:04
  Speaker 5: on Saturday than I saw the entire year. Is it
• 37:09
  Speaker 5: because he was a bad offensive lineman? No, he was
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: because of, the scheme and the coaching and all the,
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: all the above. But like, we talked about the offensive lineman.
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: Like we couldn't blame specifically the individuals last year. Like
• 37:27
  Speaker 5: you wanted to, because sometimes it looks so bad, but like,
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: what are you being told day in, day out? My God,
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: I'm going through the first quarter again right now.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, is that the same guy? Is that
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: the same guy? Yeah.
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: And it's, it's, it's, it's really encouraging to, And it
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: really exciting to be on this side of things and
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: to watch that performance. And like you said, not only
• 37:52
  Speaker 5: are they keeping the defense guessing by doing different things,
• 37:56
  Speaker 5: but they're, when they do those different things, they are
• 37:58
  Speaker 5: so they're, they're very well coached and it's impressive that
• 38:01
  Speaker 5: they were able to put that tape out there on week.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: One, especially week one with the brand new coaches though. Yeah.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: With, what everybody thought was going to be distractions so
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: big that they wouldn't be focused on the game.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Like that is one thing that I noticed.
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: And I told y'all as we, you know, as I
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: came back from talking with the team, I was like, I,
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: I know there's a lot of stuff going on, but
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: that team didn't really feel like they cared about it.
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: They kind of felt focused on that day, that moment,
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: that practice. And like, you hear that from somebody and look,
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: I played at LSU and they're like, Oh, of course
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: the LSU guy's going to say that. I said that
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: to y'all private. That team, I'm not saying that I
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: wouldn't be distracted, but they're not.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: All right, real quick.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: You should know this is one of my favorite things
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: to do.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: Okay. So ready. Run breakdown. I'm excited. 48 runs. 16
• 39:05
  Speaker 3: outside zones. Pretty good sample size. 10 inside zones.
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: 14, as they describe as like a man. So a
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: man can be a duo, an iso, some different things.
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: Wham.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen any whams, but it can be a wham.
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: Love the wham block, unless it's hello, de nada.
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: They ran a draw. Guess what else they did? No,
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: don't do it. Don't you dare.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: It don't you say it they ran seven powers shut
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: up which is seven more than lsu ran last year
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: they ran seven times the amount just seven times zero
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: dude yeah So that kind of also gives you the
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: diversity in the run game of 16 outside zones, 10
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: inside zones, 14 man concepts, and seven powers. It's a
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: little bit of everything, and that's how you keep a
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: defense on their heels. You don't just run the same
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: thing over and over and over again, which you're not
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: good at. Also, we need to add that caveat into it.
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: You're not good at it, and you keep running it.
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: You've got to give him different looks. You've got to
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: give your running back a different feel. You've got to
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: give him different things to do. And, again, I said
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: it on the broadcast. We're 10 plays in. I said
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: this is more diversity in the run game than I
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: saw all of last year.
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and you weren't so reliant on RPOs that you
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: handicapped your offensive lineman from getting to the second level.
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: If they've got to go block a linebacker, they go
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: block a linebacker. They don't have to wait and wait
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: to see if you're handing it off or throwing it.
• 40:44
  Speaker 5: And they're on their heels a little bit and chopping
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: their feet and balking nobody for a little bit.
• 40:48
  Speaker 8: No.
• 40:49
  Speaker 5: It was just great. It was just the whole film,
• 40:53
  Speaker 5: the whole game. What else?
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: I mean. The what else? We're going to continue to.
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: What else? Should we watch film? We are at 8 o'clock.
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: As long as the cord works. Again, we did not
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: do a dress rehearsal. Did you not find the cord? Well,
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: I see it down there. Or what was formerly known
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: as the cord.
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: The artist formerly known as the cord that shows film? Yeah,
• 41:16
  Speaker 5: but we'll see if it's still plugged into the thing
• 41:18
  Speaker 5: that can zoom over to Taylor.
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: All right, we'll find that out. We'll test that out
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: at 8 o'clock. We are going to watch some tape.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: We're going to take a break now. More LSU dominant
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: win over Clemson when we come back here on OTB.

  Speaker 2: going to take care of your entire home. And, again,
• 43:54

  Speaker 2: to hear from you. Just the atmosphere, the game itself.
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: and just everything that led to LSU beating up on Clemson.
• 44:47
  Speaker 9: Yeah, when we were sitting there, you know, I sat
• 44:50
  Speaker 9: next to Chris, so I was like, this is genuinely
• 44:52
  Speaker 9: the loudest I've heard Tiger Stadium, I think, ever.
• 44:56
  Speaker 4: And I was like, maybe I'm just being, like, but
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: it was so loud.
• 45:00
  Speaker 9: And then I saw Holly Road tweeted out that she
• 45:03
  Speaker 9: had it, she recorded how loud it was, and it
• 45:06
  Speaker 9: indeed was, like, the vibes in there were crazy. I
• 45:09
  Speaker 9: think it was insane that It rained so hard and
• 45:13
  Speaker 9: that many people were still that excited and showed up
• 45:17
  Speaker 9: and honestly showed out.
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: It was like torrential downpour for a second.
• 45:20
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 45:21
  Speaker 4: And yeah, the vibes were great.

  Speaker 9: And whenever I was trying to get in the stadium,
• 45:27
  Speaker 9: I'd never seen it that packed ever.
• 45:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 45:30
  Speaker 9: Like in my 10 years being here at LSU. So
• 45:36
  Speaker 9: I think that everybody's very, very excited about the Lane
• 45:39
  Speaker 9: Kiffin era, obviously. And now they have something to be
• 45:44
  Speaker 9: incredibly excited about after that game.
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, you're right on all accounts. I had
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: never seen that many people at the walk down the hill,
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: the Tiger Wall. It went all the way to Nicholson.
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: It was like 10 deep. I was just trying to
• 45:55
  Speaker 2: get to the press box. I had to turn into
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: a fullback there for a second.
• 46:00
  Speaker 4: I did too.
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: Hey, if anybody in this room is going to be
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: a fullback, it's you and I. I was like, We
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: got it.
• 46:06
  Speaker 4: I don't know how I got through that, but I did.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: And somebody asked me on the sideline, like, hey, are
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: these people going to show up after the rain?
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: I go, oh, just wait. They're not going anywhere. And
