• 1:17
  Speaker 3: Oh, like from.

• 1:25
  Speaker 5: I'm like, I don't think we're there yet.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: He might be close. He's close.
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: He's like, why can't I watch this PG-13? I've watched
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: the PG-13 movie before. I guess the.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: I don't even know how to say it. It's got
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: a lot of. Sexual stuff. Yeah.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: I didn't know. Nine. Intuitions. He's not nine. He's 10. No,
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: I'm saying it's nine o'clock.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: He's actually 11. He just turned 11. That's right. I mean, yeah.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: I was like, well, you're not 13, bud. Well, he said, well,
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: I'll watch Spider-Man. Ooh. Good shirt. Good shirt. Fair. Fair point.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: But this one is a little bit more sexual. I
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: don't know. I like that poncho ad campaign. I don't
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: know how we got there. Oh, yeah, I do. It's gold.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: I love gold. We're gold in the end game. Last week,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Ole Miss, y'all noticed. I mean, they went red. They
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: call it baby or powder blue there. Powder. Powder blue, red.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: We typically don't do well when we say it's the
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: gold game or the purple game or whatever. Yeah. When
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: did that start?
• 2:33
  Speaker 7: As long as I can remember.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: We had gold games, I think, when we played.
• 2:36
  Speaker 7: I swear, if y'all had Mississippi State at home, that
• 2:39
  Speaker 7: was the gold game.
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: I was about to say the same thing.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: If we played Jefferson, Pilot, 11 a.m., Mississippi State, which
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: it always was, gold.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Do we like that? Do we like the gold?
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: I don't care. I mean, I'm irrelevant. If you want
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: to do, like, one common. Now, nobody's going to follow it.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: I don't know why. I think they will. There's going
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: to be. No. There's not. Not everybody. There'll be way
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: more gold than there normally is.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: You don't think so? Are you going to the game? No. Alondra,
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: are you going to the game?
• 3:16
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I know you're not going to the.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Game.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Does that mean that me and Alondra have to wear
• 3:21
  Speaker 4: gold in the booth?
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: In the press box? I don't know if I own gold.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Funny enough, I don't know what I have. Go get
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: some because it's a gold game. Are they going to
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: pay for my gold outfit?
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a write-off. I don't have a gold poncho.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: I rotate the purple and the white poncho.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: That's true. You got a hat? I wear the LSU
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: baseball hat during the call. That thing's purple. We'll get
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: a gold one. They don't have a gold. We'll make one.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: What is this, Etsy? They got to make a gold
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: hat if they're going to have a gold thing. To
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: fit my head. Wow, that's a good one.
• 4:03
  Speaker 7: I was about to say, I have a gold hat.
• 4:05
  Speaker 7: I don't know if it'll fit. That's a good point.
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, those end up looking like yarmulkes on me, okay?
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: What kind of crowd game like that?
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: Is there one outside of the Penn State whiteout that
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: gets the juices flowing?
• 4:23
  Speaker 9: No.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: Like the color? I mean, I thought it looked good
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: last week.
• 4:28
  Speaker 7: Tennessee's done like the orange-white a lot.
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah. It looks cool. I just don't really care. I
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: don't either. It does look cool. And I respect doing it. Like,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: none of it really gets my juices flowing. Like, I
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: guess Ole Miss looks cool, but I just don't care.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: But are you winning on the field? Yeah, like, I
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: don't care.
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: But I, like, the wideout is a game I want
• 4:45
  Speaker 5: to go to at some point. And I have, I
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: don't care. I could care less about them. But I
• 4:50
  Speaker 5: think it's a cool looking game. Well, he could care less.
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Hmm? It means you do care.
• 4:56
  Speaker 7: He could care less.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: He could care less.
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: That's what we're going to pick up. I've said way more, like,
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: way dumber things today.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: We do pick it out every time. Not today. No,
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: it does nothing for me. I couldn't care more. There
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: you go. No.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: No.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: I could care more. All right. I couldn't care less. Couldn't.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: Couldn't care less. That's what I said. No, you said
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: I could care less. No, I just said it quick.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Here you go. This is it.
• 5:31
  Speaker 7: Beginning 06. Against State. That was the first one. LSU,
• 5:35
  Speaker 7: 10-2 all-time gold games.
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: Okay. 2006, you said? Yeah. What was the score of
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: that game?
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: 48-17.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: Oh, give us the box score. I know Matt came
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: in that puppy. Oh, an 0-6? Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: You have a box score.
• 5:54
  Speaker 7: I'm getting it right now.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: I think I threw a pick six in that one.
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: I think that was, I think this is razor rub
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: game where I threw a pick six and I got,
• 6:01
  Speaker 5: and then, so they pulled Jamarcus because we were ahead.
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: I threw a pick six on razor rub and then
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: he put Jamarcus back in. Was this the famous Jamarcus?
• 6:07
  Speaker 9: Get out.
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: Matt, get in.
• 6:08
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 6:09
  Speaker 7: Matt, get out. Matt, you were one for three, eight
• 6:13
  Speaker 7: yards and an interception.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: One for three, eight yards. Hootie, I wonder who you
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: completed the pass to. It wasn't razor rub. Definitely probably me.
• 6:21
  Speaker 7: It was either you or Charles Scott because both of
• 6:23
  Speaker 7: y'all had one catch for eight yards.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: I think it was me. I think it was. What
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: was the rushing stats on that puppy?
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: Not great. Y'all averaged 2.8 a carry.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: You were the lead rusher, 8 for 49.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: Okay. What's 8 for 49? What's that average?
• 6:39
  Speaker 7: Oh, you had a 6.1 average.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, chill out over there, bruh. Jamarcus went off that game,
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: didn't he?
• 6:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah, 18 to 20.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: 330, three touchdowns.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Oh, God.
• 6:49
  Speaker 7: Went off. So it didn't really matter that you didn't
• 6:51
  Speaker 7: run it that great.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: Any rushing touchdowns? You, yeah.
• 6:56
  Speaker 7: You had four rushing touchdowns. Charles Scott had two.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: You had one.
• 7:01
  Speaker 7: Alec Broussard had one.
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: Say Chuck.
• 7:03
  Speaker 7: But, I mean, you average over six. They average 2.8
• 7:06
  Speaker 7: and 2.5.
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: Charles, criminally underrated. Yeah. He's very good. Very good football player.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: For four years, Jimbo knew I hated the play razor rub.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: Hated it.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: Because we always did it from under center. Sprint out
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: to the right. Throw this dumb play.
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: I hated it. So I get into the game. Jimbo
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: knows this. And Jimbo makes fun of me for hating
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Razor Rub. He's the most simple player in football. And
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: I'm like, Jimbo, I hate it. I hate it. It's awful.
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: It's the worst.
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: And first pass play, I'm in the game. He calls
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: Razor Rub. And I got the signal, and I.
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: Go, like, Jimbo's laughing up there in the press box.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: I know. Just calling Razor Rub. I'd be damned if
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: I didn't pick six. Got yanked. Do you know who
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: you're even trying to throw it to? No, it might
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: have been. I want to say it might have been Bo.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: You were in there with like Debo and Buster.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: Well, I was in there with enough people to where
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: they pulled the starting quarterback because we were blowing them out.
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: And then they put him back in because the backup
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: to a pick.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Pick six. On the most simple playing football. Sorry about that. Hey, look,
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: a lot of people go one for three with eight
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: yards and a pick. A lot of people do. Absolutely. Absolutely.
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: Shouldn't have thrown it to me. I'd have called it.
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: I hated going in games in mop-up duty. I hated it.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: I actually. I hated, like, no-win situations. That's true. I
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: get that. It was the only time that I got
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: to play running back. My first two years, kind of. So,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: I was like, oh, yeah. If I saw number 15
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: trotting out there, I was like, oh, yeah. Me and him. Oh, yeah.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: It's time, baby. We're about to have. You and Xavier
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: Carter were like, oh, yeah. It's time.
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: I'd go from fullback to tailback, and I'd see, you know, whoever,
• 9:03
  Speaker 4: Sean Jordan, whoever tried out there with me.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, we're about to go four-minute offense in
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: the third quarter.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: I love it. The play calls were pretty fun at
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: some of those games. 11 a.m. Mississippi State game, wasn't
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: much fun to go in there. But, like, Ole Miss
• 9:16
  Speaker 5: at Ole Miss, where it's like, okay, this is the
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: bomb squad going in there in the fourth quarter.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Let's throw it to the Olympian on a go route.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, let's do that. Touchdown.
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, two Olympians probably in. Probably Benny Brazil and Xavier Carter.
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 9:38
  Speaker 4: Those games like that, though, the only bad thing about those,
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: because you do that, you'd hit Benny Brazil on the
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: go route, 60-yard touchdown, and we'd be up by 45,
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: and we'd still put the hands team out there.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God, you're right.
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: Like, no matter what, like, we'd let them score because, like, well,
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: they're going to, you know. And then we'd be up
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: 45 to 7 or 3 because they'd kick a field goal.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: So they didn't get shut out. We're over there just chilling.
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: Hands team.
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: Hands.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: No. What? Your shoulder pads are unbuckled. Yeah. Jerseys rolled up.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: No wrist tape.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: Gloves are tied onto the belt.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: As soon as the starters came out, the tape came off. Yeah.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: But then they have to go back in for hands team.
• 10:18
  Speaker 7: Mm-hmm.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: Because you didn't rep a backup hands team. You got
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: one hands team. You have one hands team. Yeah. And
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: it's the best.
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: And usually I was on hands team at LSU.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah. They put the backup quarterback at hands team. And
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: I was like, man, don't hit it at me. Like
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: I was the person, the first back line. So I
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: was going to catch it and also take a shot.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: That's fun. Loved it. It's great. Good clean fun. Yeah.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Here we go.
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: Glad I secured this onside kick. Oh, here we go. Oh,
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: we did out of gun.
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: Boy was that me in the game pretty sure okay
• 10:53

• 11:17
  Speaker 9: it again, though?
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, let's see it again. What if we just kept
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: it rolling? We need to do a film review of
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: us and how bad we are. I don't want to
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: do that. Because it would be like, oh, God, we're awful.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: Motion in. Got D-Bell. I was trying to feed him.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: Good throw. I guess that is it. That guy shouldn't
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: have even been there. I think that's me running back.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: That's a bad play. That's a bad play. Who are
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: you trying to throw it to right there? Was Dixon
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: in the backfield? What? Why is Dixon in the backfield?
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: What the hell is going on during that play? Oh, God,
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: I suck. We should do a film review of ourselves.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: It would be awful. It would be so bad.
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: Like, you think we, like, hammer on the players now
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: for LSU? Like, bad quarterback footwork and stuff? Wait until
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: I do myself. That ain't going to be pretty.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: Oh, that was me at running back. How do I not?
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: Where do I end up? I think it was me. Dang.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: Is that a male model? Dixon is in the backfield.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: I don't know. No, that's you. No, that's you. All
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: white guys look alike.
• 12:27
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 12:28
  Speaker 3: It's true. That's a bad play, brother. I don't know, EZ.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: I don't know who else to own it to. The
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: other team? Number three from Mississippi State. He was my bud.
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: Number 80 is Dwayne Bowe. If it makes y'all feel better,
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: I got benched after that.
• 12:45
  Speaker 7: Was that Derek Pegues?
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: Makes you feel better. Yeah, probably. Second-string quarterback, I betched
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: for the first-teamer after that.
• 12:52
  Speaker 7: I think Pegues wore three.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:53
  Speaker 7: It was Derek Pegues.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: If that was me at back, I was shuffling.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: That's because I'm supposed to set the edge, like get
• 13:01
  Speaker 4: the edge for the quarterback because he's rolling out, but
• 13:03
  Speaker 4: there was nobody to really block.
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So I'm just patrolling the area. Yeah. That's smart.
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Looking for work.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: Looking for work. I didn't know my work was going
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: to be trying to chase down the other team.
• 13:14
  Speaker 7: Somebody in the chat said, Best QB quote after an interception.
• 13:17
  Speaker 7: That guy wasn't even supposed to be there. I should
• 13:21
  Speaker 7: have done one of these, like walking on the sideline.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: Keep it higher. Keep it higher. Come on. Keep it higher. Buster.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Don't act like that's not out there with you doing that.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: Come on.
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: Gotta get higher. Why'd that look so grainy, though? You
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: know what? Like, that was all. Yeah, it was weird.
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: It's actually clearer than the 07 ones we can find.
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: You know what was a very lonely feeling back in
• 13:48
  Speaker 5: those days was having to walk to the bench, sit
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: down on the bench, and where the quarterback sat was
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: in the middle on the right side. If you're facing
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: the field on the right side was the offense. And
• 13:59
  Speaker 5: in the middle was the very center was the big
• 14:03
  Speaker 5: two tall cabinets. And on the side of that cabinet
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: facing the bench where the quarterback sat was the old
• 14:10
  Speaker 5: school white.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: Phone with the cord on it. Oh, yeah.
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: .
• 14:19
  Speaker 7: .
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: And I noticed Jimbo calling from the booth.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: And I got to pick it up. And, you know,
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: who was it? Was it Tracy? Who was it? Woody
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: that year? Woody would have been probably that year. Oh, say,
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: Woody answers it. And he's like, hey, it's for you.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, God. It's for you. It's for you.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: Why do I know it ain't for you? I got
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: to listen to Jimbo just go off. Hey, let me
• 14:41
  Speaker 3: ask you something, Matt. What the hell did you think
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: you saw in that play?
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: Who are you throwing it to? A lonely feeling. Good
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: life lessons he was teaching me. Good life lessons.
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: I got to ask you, just one question. Who in
• 14:55
  Speaker 4: the hell were you throwing it to? My friend on
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: Mississippi State, Coach. Coach, I didn't really want to run
• 15:02
  Speaker 4: that play. I didn't tell you I liked that one.
• 15:05
  Speaker 4: Call a different one.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: Backed up. That was a tough situation for me. You
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: got backed up. Shane, that was 2006. Where are you
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: finding this now?
• 15:15
  Speaker 7: They broke it down.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: Cover two. This is just brutal. What am I doing?
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: What are you doing? What are we doing? I quit.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: I'm leaving. I'm getting out of here. It was me, though.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: I got to get back in the frame. I got
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: to go make a play. That was a laser, though.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: What am I doing? That was a laser beam. I'm
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: surprised I didn't knock that guy over. He was so shocked.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: I think it stuck on him.
• 15:44
  Speaker 5: I just didn't want to do it. I didn't want
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: to be there. I didn't want to be mop-up duty.
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: I wanted to be the starter. I would have made
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: that throw.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: I'm kind of embarrassed I didn't get back in on
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: the play. Like, where do I end up? Nobody wanted
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: to be there, okay? Watch the effort by the receivers here.
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: These guys weren't first-rounders. Dude, there was tens of people
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: in the stands. What are you talking about?
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: Terrible route. Got to keep it higher. If three doesn't
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: intercept it, 14 does. For sure. 14 had worse hands, though.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: He probably would have dropped it. Ooh, Greg. I hate that.
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: He said, Jake, do you ever think about how you're
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: now the same age as Jimbo when he was coaching you?
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Don't love it.
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: Now do you ever think about screaming at 20-year-olds? I
• 16:37
  Speaker 4: scream at 10-year-olds sometimes.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Not really. Just I coach them. I don't like that, though.
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: I didn't love that. I don't like hearing that. I
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: didn't love that observation. That's factual. What did Tom Brady say?
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: It looked like I had a piss missile attached to
• 16:56
  Speaker 5: my shoulder out there.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: Goodness. I love a good piss missile.
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: Imagine if the defense went even there. That would have
• 17:04
  Speaker 5: hit Craig right.
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: Between the numbers. I'm kind of wondering how you completed
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: a pass in that game. It was probably a short one.
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: It's green.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: Like he said, there was two guys with eight yards,
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: me and Charles Scott. It was probably to one of us.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: I'm embarrassed. I'd played good football before that, okay? I'd
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: played some good football. And that was the gold game
• 17:32
  Speaker 3: of 2006 to wrap up this entire conversation.
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 17:36

  Speaker 4: phone lines now. I have a little munchies with our guy, chef,
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: Michael Johnson.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Get ready to tantalize your taste buds and leave this
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: segment hungry. This is munchies with executive chef, Michael Johnson.
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: Chef what's going on, brother. How are we doing?
• 20:02
  Speaker 6: I'm good.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: How are y'all doing? Fantastic. Glad to have you back on.
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: How'd everything go on the road?
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: Last week, I got a chance to catch up with
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: you for a little bit, but everything go good? I mean,
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: I know it's a little bit different of a setup
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: staying that far away, but it felt like everything was
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: ready to go?
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, when you work at a professional hotel
• 20:21
  Speaker 6: like the place that we stayed, things tend to go smoothly,
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: and they did, but it was not without a little
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: push here and there. So, you know, I think all
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: in all, we got fed well, and we fueled well, and,
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: you know, it's kind of a tough deal because you
• 20:36
  Speaker 6: have to push your meal forward to make the travel
• 20:38
  Speaker 6: from where we stayed to where we played. And so
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: timing the meal out is a little bit difficult when
• 20:44
  Speaker 6: you have those, when you have those travels, but you know,
• 20:46
  Speaker 6: outside of that, man, I think, you know, everybody was,
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: was happy with what we were doing. And, um, you know,
• 20:52
  Speaker 6: it was a unfortunate loss, but, uh, I feel good
• 20:55
  Speaker 6: about what we were trying to accomplish with the food
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: and energy and fuel and everything else.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: I didn't even think about that.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: I mean, the fact that you'd have like a longer
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: bus ride because you're staying in You know, you'll see
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: a place where it has the rooms that you need
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: for meeting rooms and all that stuff.
• 21:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: You have to push everything up. And so then you've
• 21:12
  Speaker 4: got to kind of make sure that you're fueled and
• 21:14
  Speaker 4: ready to go for the game as well.
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: It's not too far out. Yeah.
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: There's a pretty decent gap in there that, you know,
• 21:21
  Speaker 6: like when we play at home, we don't have that
• 21:22
  Speaker 6: large of a gap.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: And when you stay closer to, you don't have that
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: large of a gap. But, yeah, it's something that has
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: to be put into consideration for sure.
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: Chef, we've got a hashtag munchies here. Chef, how much
• 21:33
  Speaker 5: of the food that you cook do you get to eat?
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: Or maybe I should say, how much do you want
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: to eat?
• 21:39
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's a good question. Get to and want to
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: are two different things, right? Yeah.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: That's right.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: I mean, I try to taste as much as I can,
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: but if I tasted everything, brother, I'd be 300 pounds.
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: Hell yeah.
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: I'd have a spittoon.
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: I worked a salmonier of food. I worked a 20-hour
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: day and a 24-hour day while we were on the road,
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: and I was burning like 4,500 calories. I still eat
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: enough to offset that when I'm on the road and
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: tasting food because it's so much. On a game day
• 22:19
  Speaker 6: when we don't play until 6.30, there's four meals to have.
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: You know what I mean? That's a lot of food
• 22:27
  Speaker 6: to be tasted, and I do. I try to taste everything.
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: and sometimes it's just what I want because, you know,
• 22:34
  Speaker 6: like I don't dig on tasting oatmeal every day. I
• 22:36
  Speaker 6: don't dig on tasting grits every afternoon, you know. But
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: I do taste the things that are most impactful, you know,
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: like the high-dollar proteins, the stuff that we know that are,
• 22:47
  Speaker 6: you know, like we know the items that the team
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: is volatile about, and so we kind of prioritize those things.
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: Chef, hashtag munchies. Do you have a whole chicken go-to
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: dish to feed the family?
• 23:01
  Speaker 6: I mean, I just like roasting whole birds, to be
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: honest with you, whether it be a turkey, a duck,
• 23:06
  Speaker 6: or whatever. A chicken is no different. It's not necessarily
• 23:11
  Speaker 6: like beer can chicken or anything of that nature, but
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: I do brine my whole chicken just like I do
• 23:16
  Speaker 6: a whole turkey or anything else. Duck's not as important
• 23:19
  Speaker 6: because it has so much fat on it, but you
• 23:23
  Speaker 6: definitely want to baste more often than you do a
• 23:26
  Speaker 6: turkey because you can turn the heat up a little
• 23:29
  Speaker 6: bit higher on a chicken and get that browning color. But,
• 23:36
  Speaker 6: you know, I definitely like to start with some butter
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: or some kind of tasty fat. Even coconut oil on
• 23:42
  Speaker 6: there is pretty good, melted and basted on there. But
• 23:46
  Speaker 6: some kind of fat that's over it that helps promote
• 23:49
  Speaker 6: the browning process, what you might call an accelerant.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: Chef, I'm going to, like, add on to that question.
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: So when we cook, like, a whole chicken at the house,
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: something I struggle with is when I'm carving it up.
• 24:04
  Speaker 5: Is there, like, a particular, like, knife I should use
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: or a technique I should use? Like, when I'm slicing
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: the chicken breast, like, I always just, like, rip the skin.
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: And the skin is the best part. Like, if you
• 24:16
  Speaker 5: make it really well, it's crunchy, it's crispy.
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: I just can't slice it evenly. Is there like a,
• 24:22
  Speaker 5: should I be doing something different or get a different knife?
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: Um, so a lot of times I'll start the first
• 24:27
  Speaker 6: slice with like a bread knife or a serrated knife
• 24:29
  Speaker 6: so that it cuts through that easier because the smooth
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: blade knife doesn't really want to cut through something that's,
• 24:34
  Speaker 6: that's smooth and hard like that.
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: So you're almost, you're almost trying to kind of tear
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: through it. And a little bread knife actually works quite
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: well with that. And then, you know, I don't use
• 24:44
  Speaker 6: like a large carving knife. I use like a utility
• 24:46
  Speaker 6: knife or a, Um, even a slicing knife that's kind
• 24:50
  Speaker 6: of smaller in format from top to bottom from blade
• 24:53
  Speaker 6: to back so that it's only, you know, an inch
• 24:56
  Speaker 6: to an inch and a half thick versus, you know,
• 24:58
  Speaker 6: like a chef knife that's two and a half to
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: three inches thick. Because when you get down around those bones,
• 25:05
  Speaker 6: you want to be able to turn the knife sideways
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: and cut in. And if it's too big of a knife,
• 25:09
  Speaker 6: you're going to do exactly what you just said. You're
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: going to end up tearing the meat versus cutting it, um, So, yeah,
• 25:16
  Speaker 6: it's just practice. It's understanding the bone structure, knowing where
• 25:19
  Speaker 6: to run the knife blade. Using the knife tip versus
• 25:23
  Speaker 6: the entire blade as well is helpful. If you kind
• 25:26
  Speaker 6: of come down from a vertical perspective on the bird
• 25:30
  Speaker 6: and run it down the bone and that cartilage and
• 25:32
  Speaker 6: kind of scrape along it, that's helpful as well.
• 25:37
  Speaker 3: Hashtag munchies. Last week you said something... And one of
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: the reasons why you go on the road is to
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: make sure that no one tampers with the food. Have
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: you ever had that happen or know of it happening
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: with another team?
• 25:51
  Speaker 6: Well, we had it happen to us in 2018. That's
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: why I ended up on the road. I'm not going
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: to tell you who it was, but I will tell
• 25:58
  Speaker 6: you this. It was undercooked chicken, and it felt purposeful.
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: It's very difficult to say whether it was or whether
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: it wasn't.
• 26:07
  Speaker 4: But it was so bad that you were like, y'all
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: did this on purpose. There's no way you're this bad
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: at your job.
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:13
  Speaker 6: It's kind of the way it felt. Wow. And so
• 26:17
  Speaker 6: that's why I got put on the road was to
• 26:19
  Speaker 6: prevent moments like that from happening. And it's kind of
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: morphed into something even bigger and greater in the quality
• 26:24
  Speaker 6: and standards of the items that we cook and serve
• 26:26
  Speaker 6: on the road as well. So we spec those items
• 26:29
  Speaker 6: as well. And if they have the capability of purchasing them,
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: then they do. And if they don't, then we have
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: conversation about what a– what a suitable um you know
• 26:39
  Speaker 6: fill-in would be so it's it's uh it's an evolving
• 26:43
  Speaker 6: expectation if you will with how you know the football
• 26:47
  Speaker 6: world is evolving so it's you have to you have
• 26:49
  Speaker 6: to be able to pivot.
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: Is there any like like old school stories that have
• 26:56
  Speaker 5: been told about like other like You hear, like, rival
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: games back in the day of people, like, stealing mascots
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: and stuff. I'm sure there's got to be some chef, like,
• 27:04
  Speaker 5: old school stories of, like, poisoning or something crazy. Now,
• 27:10
  Speaker 5: the raw chicken, on purpose, that's pretty wild as well.
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: But is there, like, any other, like, cool wives tales, like,
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: old school?
• 27:18
  Speaker 6: You know what I mean? I can't come up with
• 27:21
  Speaker 6: any off the top of my head, but I feel
• 27:24
  Speaker 6: like there's a stand-by-me moment. You know the movie?
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 27:31
  Speaker 6: The whole team. Oh, man. There's volatility there for sure.
• 27:38
  Speaker 6: Hopefully you get into that stuff. If you see raw chicken,
• 27:42
  Speaker 6: you're going to stop, but if you don't know that
• 27:45
  Speaker 6: something's wrong with it, and you just continue to consume it,
• 27:48
  Speaker 6: there's an ultimate outcome that's going to happen. Yeah, that's
• 27:53
  Speaker 6: why we take temperatures and make sure we buy from
• 27:55
  Speaker 6: quality vendors and have chefs on the road to overlook
• 27:59
  Speaker 6: and keep honest people honest.
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: Chef, obviously there's going to be a big difference.
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: What's the difference from your game day schedule when you're
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: at home for a night game rather than an earlier game?
• 28:14
  Speaker 6: Mine personally, you know, I'm up at like 3 a.m.
• 28:17
  Speaker 6: to go to breakfast and just kind of get in
• 28:19
  Speaker 6: the facility and shake hands and get a cup of
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: coffee and just kind of look over the floor plan.
• 28:26
  Speaker 6: And so the difference, the major difference is when I'm
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: at home, you know, after the pregame meal's over and
• 28:32
  Speaker 6: the team goes to do their walk and bus ride
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: and whatever, I go home because I'm working six days
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: a week. And so, you know, like, that is my
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: time with my children. And as a father, you know,
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: like I have to prioritize being a dad before I go.
• 28:47
  Speaker 3: To football games.
• 28:48
  Speaker 6: And so I will go to one football game a year,
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: but that's my dad time. And so I go home
• 28:54
  Speaker 6: and sometimes I watch the game and sometimes I, I
• 28:57
  Speaker 6: nap because it's been a long day. I mean, yeah,
• 29:03
  Speaker 6: when we're at home games, you know, I'll work three
• 29:05
  Speaker 6: in the morning until three in the afternoon.
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: With a 6.30 postgame or, you know, 4 o'clock, something
• 29:13
  Speaker 6: like that. But on the road, after pregame meal, I
• 29:16
  Speaker 6: travel with the team and follow the team around. And
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: when I'm on the road, like, I even help ice
• 29:21
  Speaker 6: things down in the clubhouse or in the locker room and,
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: you know, like, help arrange postgame meal. I mean.
• 29:33
  Speaker 6: I literally worked a 24-hour day last weekend, you know,
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: based off of everything that we did and then get
• 29:39
  Speaker 6: on the, getting on the plane and traveling home. I
• 29:41
  Speaker 6: think that I finally got to bed at five 30
• 29:42
  Speaker 6: in the morning.
• 29:44
  Speaker 4: It was a long, long travel there, but that post-game snack,
• 29:48
  Speaker 4: that was pretty good.
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: It didn't make, you know, it didn't, it didn't make
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: the loss better, but it helped ease it a little bit.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: How many milligrams of caffeine on a day like that?
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: I know food is fuel, but sometimes you need a
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: little bit of caffeine.
• 30:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I do have a cheat. I have this gum
• 30:04
  Speaker 6: called Max, and it's like one little stick of it.
• 30:07
  Speaker 6: It's like a cup of coffee. You know, like, is
• 30:11
  Speaker 6: it healthy for me? Probably not, but it definitely pulls
• 30:15
  Speaker 6: me through the lull when I need it. You know,
• 30:19
  Speaker 6: because I'm diabetic, you know, sometimes eating food, you know,
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: like carbs that we need for the long bird, if
• 30:24
  Speaker 6: I eat too many carbs... I'm supposed to eat small
• 30:27
  Speaker 6: amounts throughout the day, but I don't always have that capability.
• 30:30
  Speaker 6: So sometimes I have to rely on a little caffeine
• 30:32
  Speaker 6: to get me through.
• 30:34

  Speaker 3: OTB here live from the Raising Cane Studio. Chef always
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: makes it sound so easy. Yeah, I know. God, I
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: wish it was that easy for me. Oh, whole chicken?
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: Here's what I do. Boom. The skin, like, comes off.
• 33:20
  Speaker 5: Then I've got to slice the skin by itself and, like,
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: place it over each piece of chicken.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: This is the attention to detail I give.
• 33:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: Wish I would have given it on that play against
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: Mississippi State. You're amongst friends, even the ones in Japan
• 33:38
  Speaker 3: listening right now. Yeah, sure. How much will that affect
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: the rest of your day? It'll affect it. It won't
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: be a great day. Will you go back and watch
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: it when you're in your office?
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: You know, sometimes you can't change the past.
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah. But certainly you can still be embarrassed by it.
• 33:58
  Speaker 4: How many pick sixes did you have in your career?
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: Probably that's the only one for sure. SEC championship game
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: for sure. No, no.
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: That one didn't happen either. That was 144 Ohio. Hit
• 34:13
  Speaker 5: the back foot, throw it. Dwayne Bowe should have got open.
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: Didn't. Can't help it. You talking about the one in
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: the SEC championship game? Yeah. Again, I'm blaming somebody else.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: Did you mark his shoulder? Yeah, I think it was shoulder.
• 34:29
  Speaker 7: Separated shoulder.
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: It makes you feel better. We played horrible that day.
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: Everybody did. It wasn't just you. It was all of us.
• 34:40
  Speaker 7: Yeah, DJ Shockley had a day.
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Shock did have a day. Yeah, he did. I
• 34:44
  Speaker 3: threw a touchdown. I think Devo. I'm going to go
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: with the snake route. Corner post.
• 34:56
  Speaker 4: I don't even want to look at the stats of
• 34:59
  Speaker 4: that game.
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: Brutal. I don't think you do either. What was that?
• 35:06
  Speaker 4: Come on.
• 35:07
  Speaker 3: Taylor already looked it up. Yeah.
• 35:08
  Speaker 7: Yeah. But when I see DJ Shockley, what is greatest
• 35:13
  Speaker 7: I remember?
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: I thought. No, he was amazing.
• 35:16
  Speaker 7: He was six of 12 for 112 yards.
• 35:18
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 35:19
  Speaker 7: Now, didn't turn it over. Had two touchdowns on a
• 35:21
  Speaker 7: rushing touchdown, but 10 yards rushing.
• 35:24
  Speaker 3: God, I thought I remember him being really good.
• 35:26
  Speaker 7: I do, too, because I listened to it on the radio.
• 35:28
  Speaker 7: I remember it. That was all they were talking about
• 35:30
  Speaker 7: the whole game was DJ Shockley.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: All right.
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: Give it to us.
• 35:36
  Speaker 7: I don't know if you won it, man. You're still
• 35:37
  Speaker 7: thinking about that last one.
• 35:39
  Speaker 3: Third touchdown. You did.
• 35:43
  Speaker 7: Jake, we'll start with you.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: Oh, I had stats?
• 35:45
  Speaker 7: You did. Two carries for five yards.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: Two for five?
• 35:49
  Speaker 7: Oh, and one catch for five yards.
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: Big five-yard guy. You want to give Matt stats? He's pausing.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: It's dramatic pause.
• 36:05
  Speaker 7: Okay, I'm Three of 11 for 36 yards.
• 36:09
  Speaker 3: And a touchdown.
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: A touchdown and a pick.
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: Three of 11? Yeah.
• 36:13
  Speaker 7: 36 yards, touchdown, and a pick.
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: That was the game that, so Jamarius gets hurt, like,
• 36:18
  Speaker 5: third quarter, maybe? Where the game was not close.
• 36:22
  Speaker 7: Probably through 19 passes.
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, probably.
• 36:24
  Speaker 5: It was second half. And we were down a decent amount.
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: And I'm about to go into the game. And Les
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: Miles brings me to the set. And I don't remember
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: the exact... conversation we had or his like hype up
• 36:38
  Speaker 5: speech but he basically said i remember there was a
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: young quarterback in this exact same situation came in there
• 36:45
  Speaker 5: and he won the game you know that quarterback's name
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: and i was like no joe montana and i'm like
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: okay all right let's do this and i immediately went
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: out onto the field and threw a pick.
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: Six first play.
• 37:02
  Speaker 7: Oh hey in fairness to you Marcus threw a pick also,
• 37:06
  Speaker 7: and he didn't have a touchdown.
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: Boom.
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: I don't know what you're talking about. I averaged over
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: three yards a touch. Three times four is a first down.
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: If they gave it to me one more time, it
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: would have been a first down for my team. That's
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: exactly right. That's a great point. It's not that big
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: of a deal. I can't believe I got two carries.
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: That's two fullback bellies for sure in that year. That
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: was two third and ones. No doubt about it.
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: But I did start the Peach Bowl a couple of
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: weeks later. In the same building. Same?
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, looked a little bit different. We didn't have a
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: bye weekend to that point.
• 37:39
  Speaker 5: Pretty sure one of my three completions was a bubble
• 37:42
  Speaker 5: screen to Skyler.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: Skyler Green. That's a name I hadn't thought about in
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: a long time. What was his nickname from Jimbo?
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: Usually most people's nickname from Jimbo was GD followed by
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: their name.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: His was DF. Yeah, it was. It was. Who's that?
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: It'll take a second. We'll leave it to your imagination
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: what that was.
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: All right.
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: We're going to take a break. I was Brucey that game.
• 38:10
  Speaker 4: We're going to get to Ask the Bench. Before we

  Speaker 1: Bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn.
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: All right, welcome back here. Optimist closing out the show
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: here on a Thursday. But first, I want to tell
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: you about our good friends over at Catalyst. When you
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: think about Louisiana, you think about energy. And one company
• 39:53
  Speaker 5: helping shape that future is Catalyst. Helping develop the Commonwealth
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: LNG export facility over there in Cameron, Paris, which is
• 39:59
  Speaker 5: going to connect American natural gas with customers around the world.
• 40:02
  Speaker 5: Now under construction after reaching that final investment. Project represents
• 40:06
  Speaker 5: a major investment in Louisiana's future, but it's about more
• 40:09
  Speaker 5: than just exporting energy. It's about creating Louisiana jobs, supporting
• 40:13
  Speaker 5: local businesses, strengthening communities, reinforcing Louisiana's position as one of
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: the world's leading energy hubs through its natural gas production.
• 40:21
  Speaker 5: And the Commonwealth LNG Project Catalyst is helping build an
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: integrated energy platform that connects domestic resources with the growing
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: global demand as construction continues to On Louisiana's Gulf Coast,
• 40:32
  Speaker 5: Caterus is proud to invest in American energy, American workers,
• 40:35
  Speaker 5: and a stronger economic future. Caterus, connecting Louisiana energy to
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: the world.
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: I just put an offering on your Bryce Young at
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: a 25 card.
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: You declined it. It was immediately? Yeah. It was a dollar. Decline. Sorry, bud.
• 40:55
  Speaker 5: You're going to have to have a comma in it,
• 40:57
  Speaker 5: and a big one. What about a decimal?
• 41:05
  Speaker 3: How many? One. How many cents? All right. I don't know.
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: Are you disappointed? Yeah, I thought I'd get it for
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: a buck. Steal the century. You declined it. It's rude.
• 41:19
  Speaker 5: I got to tell you, Star Wars cards have been
• 41:21
  Speaker 5: popping recently. I don't know what happened. You started collecting them.
• 41:30
  Speaker 3: I think I did influence the market a little bit.
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: Credit to myself.
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: It was the best card investment I made.
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: For sure. Which one? When I started doing the Star
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: Wars stuff. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Hashtag Ask the Bench.
• 41:51
  Speaker 4: Thoughts on Kiffin's explanation of the run game out of
• 41:54
  Speaker 4: the shotgun as compared to traditional under center handoff.
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: I forgot we did. I didn't hear that.
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: I did end up hearing it, and it's basically the
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: quarterback can get the ball to the running back faster
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: because he's not having to do a drop and get it. Look,
• 42:12
  Speaker 4: I would love to debate anybody on this. I'm just
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: telling you from the running back's perspective, I'd rather be
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: toes at seven and a half, open crossover, downhill, my
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: shoulders never go away from the defense, and I get
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: the ball at full speed.
• 42:26
  Speaker 3: That's why I would like it. Like, as a running back,
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: I want to be going full speed.
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: I don't want to turn sideways, shoulders to the sideline,
• 42:33
  Speaker 4: and then come back and then try to go full
• 42:35
  Speaker 4: speed because I never get to full speed, where I
• 42:37
  Speaker 4: just like going downhill and saying my momentum is going
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: to win out. I feel like I'm a, you know,
• 42:45
  Speaker 4: I'm a pretty good person to talk about this. I
• 42:46
  Speaker 4: didn't have a lot of elite skills. Yeah, but that
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: was one of them.
• 42:50
  Speaker 3: One of them.
• 42:51
  Speaker 5: I mean, I think, okay, look, it's. You can think
• 42:55
  Speaker 5: what you want, but running game from the shotgun is
• 42:58
  Speaker 5: not as good.
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: That's not.
• 43:01
  Speaker 5: But it is awesome, and it does look beautiful when
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: it works. It's a little short.
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: It does look. I think specific.
• 43:07
  Speaker 5: And it's tough, really tough to do the clap count
• 43:09
  Speaker 5: from underneath the center. I think it would hurt the
• 43:11
  Speaker 5: center's nuts.
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: What?
• 43:16
  Speaker 3: I just thought about what you said.
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: Hashtag ask the bench. How was the transition from Jimbo
• 43:22
  Speaker 4: to Gary Croton? I like Jimbo's offense way more, just
• 43:27
  Speaker 4: me personally. Croton loved to run out of gun, going
• 43:29
  Speaker 4: back to what we were just talking about.
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: I hated it, but he loved it. He's good.
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: He's a good coach. We ran out of the gun
• 43:36
  Speaker 5: with Jimbo. It should be part of your offense.
• 43:38
  Speaker 3: But not near as much as we do with Croton.
• 43:40
  Speaker 5: Under center, I hope that it eventually evolves back. Football
• 43:45
  Speaker 5: is ever-evolving all the time, just like it has in
• 43:47
  Speaker 5: the NFL. I hope one day it makes its way
• 43:51
  Speaker 5: back into the college game, and I think it will.
• 43:54
  Speaker 5: When defenses, that's why the NFL kind of changed. Defensive
• 43:58
  Speaker 5: start getting the personnel to defend to one type of offense,
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: and then so offenses go back to other types of
• 44:03
  Speaker 5: offense to go against those types of personnel.
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: So I hope it goes back one day.
• 44:08
  Speaker 5: Like, I don't want any more like 6-3 games, but, like,
• 44:13
  Speaker 5: it's a beautiful thing when a team can line up
• 44:15
  Speaker 5: under center some and line up in gun and do both.
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: Oh, there's an amalgamation of both? Hell yeah. Hashtag Ask
• 44:24
  Speaker 3: the Bench.
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: Didn't Jacob run over Brandon Merriweather from Miami in the
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: Peach Bowl?
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: I damn sure did. Buddy and Kenny Phillips and John Beeson.
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: They all got the business. Antoine's brother? That's a shout-out.
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: That's an old-school throwback to In Living Color. That is.
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: I don't even know what that show is.
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: I got to run behind an offensive line that I
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: only got to do it once, and my God, that
