  Speaker 5: to celebrate. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Whatever you want to do,
• 1:43
  Speaker 5: it is a victory Monday for the Saints and the
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: LSU Tigers.
• 1:50
  Speaker 6: And actually, the last time that it happened, it was
• 1:54
  Speaker 6: that LSU victory at South Carolina, which almost didn't happen.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah. It would have been longer, but it happened.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: You got that dub.
• 2:01
  Speaker 5: That's when Lenore Sellers got hurt.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 2:06
  Speaker 5: Yeah. They're still holding on that.
• 2:08
  Speaker 6: If you bring that game up, it's about.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: 03 seconds before Marler brings it up. Oh, for sure.
• 2:15
  Speaker 5: I'm surprised he didn't pop his head through that door
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: right then.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: Well, he woke up.
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: You watched the second half of that game, Matt? Did
• 2:20
  Speaker 5: you watch? Door sells. I swear to God, he's good.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Anyways. And the Saints did try to screw it up.
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: They did. That did happen. They let nine come in
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: there and get hot.
• 2:32
  Speaker 7: That's... I love how he's 18, so now he's twice
• 2:36
  Speaker 7: as good. He's just like, he's going to roll now.
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: I know. Look out, Jackson. Jackson with an X and
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: an S.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Jackson.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: Jackson's son.
• 2:45
  Speaker 8: And what's going on with Cam Scadaboo?
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: He can't hold on to the football.
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: He got in trouble.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:52
  Speaker 5: I don't even know if it's that. It might be
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: more than that. He might have showed up late to
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: a meeting.
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: Could have. It could have. It was definitely the fumbling issues. Yeah.
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: Because before the game, Shefty had something he put out there. Like, hey,
• 3:04
  Speaker 6: his workload's not going to be the same. Tyrone Tracy,
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: I think he was the leading guy with six carries.
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: He was the leading guy with six carries?
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:14
  Speaker 9: That makes me so mad because I was like, oh,
• 3:16
  Speaker 9: I know what I'm about to do. I'm going to
• 3:18
  Speaker 9: start Najee Harris.
• 3:19
  Speaker 8: Nah. That was just a bad.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Najee had four carries for two yards.
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: Hell yeah.
• 3:25
  Speaker 8: You know what Alvin Kamara had on my bench? More
• 3:29
  Speaker 8: than that.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he had seven for 34.
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: He wasn't going to get you a bunch anyway.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: We'll get to the game. C.J.
• 3:38
  Speaker 6: Donaldson was actually toting that thing, and then he fumbled.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: It's like, oh, come on over here.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: It was a scataboo. I know.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Oh, Kendrick. Yeah, again, under four yards.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: J.J.
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: Threw for 243 in one quarter.
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: He's also their leading rusher.
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: Most of all time in like a.
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: What?
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: Fifth most in all time? Like in a fourth quarter
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: or some situation, yeah. I saw some random stat. I'm like, well, hell,
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: that makes sense. You throw for 243 in a single quarter.
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: I was looking at scrolling the socials last night, and
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: of course, I don't know. For whatever reason, my timeline
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: loves the hate on Justin Herbert. I don't understand why.
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: I don't know if everybody's is like that.
• 4:21
  Speaker 8: I have no idea why you're in timeline.
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: Maybe because I screenshot them all to show Jake.
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: And I think you also, your phone hears you. Yeah,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: probably so. What do you mean?
• 4:31
  Speaker 8: You curate your algorithm.
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: So the one that made me laugh last night was
• 4:36
  Speaker 5: season high for Justin Herbert, 226 yards.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: JJ McCarthy, fourth quarter versus Saints, 243 yards. Made me laugh.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Brutal.
• 4:47
  Speaker 5: God, if only the Chargers had nine.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Hell, I think.
• 4:53
  Speaker 8: They're a nine away from.
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: I think my 10U Chargers, I swear to God I
• 4:56
  Speaker 6: mean this, I think my 10U Chargers threw for more
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: than 240 last night.
• 5:01
  Speaker 5: Well, that's not a very long field.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah, the Chiefs beat the hell out of them.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: We're not here to talk about losers. We're here to
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: talk about winners.
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: Good, that means we're skipping the Cowboys. Ah, yeah.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: The Cowboys suck.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: They're bad.
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: I actually picked them to win that game.
• 5:21
  Speaker 5: Guys, the Packers are just really good. I think two
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: things can be true at the same time.
• 5:27
  Speaker 7: I think Jordan Love could be playing really well, and
• 5:29
  Speaker 7: I think the team they play could also be ass.
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: I do give Jordan Love a lot of credit because
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: they still can't run the football. And again, we'll get
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: to all these games. I mean, they are horrendous. It
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: might be the worst rushing team in the history of
• 5:44
  Speaker 6: football by the end of the year.
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: And it's not even the running back. They're getting hit
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: behind the line of scrimmage most of the times that
• 5:50
  Speaker 5: they're running. Oof. Matthew Golden. Okay.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're not getting into that. It's not about these
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: people right now.
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: Not about them.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: Are you trying to bring up the Chargers and the Packers?
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Not about them right now, buddy.
• 5:59
  Speaker 8: This hasn't happened in.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: What, 753 days? 763 days, and you keep trying to
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: change the subject.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: Squirrel.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 6:07
  Speaker 8: Taylor hates LSU and the Saints.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, right.
• 6:10
  Speaker 8: Doesn't want to let them shine.
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: Look at this hoodie. LSU.
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you got a new hoodie that you didn't even
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: wear down the Victory Hill. They're going to get a
• 6:18
  Speaker 6: new hoodie to walk down the hill, and then you
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: didn't wear it.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Or white.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Hey. After Labor Day. Where's your school pride, bud?
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: It's tacky. What are you talking about?
• 6:29
  Speaker 8: He did have a my high hat on.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but you wouldn't got that hoodie to walk down
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: the hill.
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: I know, but it was a little too hot. I
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: put it on in the morning. It was a little
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: too hot. I was really enjoying the weather. It was
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: pretty chilly.
• 6:39
  Speaker 8: I was freezing.
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: I was loving it.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: I didn't say I didn't like it. Okay.
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: Plus, how long was the tiger walk? I mean, you
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: just pull it off after. You worry about your clothes.
• 6:50
  Speaker 6: I mean, you go to the equipment room, you say, hey,
• 6:53
  Speaker 6: I need this because I'm walking down the hill, and
• 6:54
  Speaker 6: they give it to you because they think, oh, yeah,
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: we want you to look.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: Good walking down the hill, and then you don't wear it.
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought it looked better than the other thing.
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: Did you talk to Willie?
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: Sure did.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: What did he say? Did you say 3183 wasn't great
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: to him? What did y'all talk about?
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: No, I didn't, but I was like, oh, my God,
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: the amount of times I hear 318 every day.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: You should have.
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: It's nauseating. Yeah.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: You probably didn't say that to him, though.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I did.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: No, I thought.
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: Sat with them for a while over at the Lot
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: Cook before we got on the bus.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: Went over there.
• 7:26
  Speaker 8: Did you get some cookies?
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: I didn't get any cookies. I didn't see any cookies.
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: But I didn't really look around. You know, it's kind
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: of like. You could probably imagine. It's not intense, but
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: it's like. I go to the Lot Cook and I'm like, man.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: That's intense, not intense.
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: I don't feel like I belong here. Like, and I'm
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: just kind of like.
• 7:48
  Speaker 8: You felt kind of awkward?
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: You go find, like, the couple people you know, and
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: you kind of, like, stand by them and talk to
• 7:53
  Speaker 5: them a little bit. It's not like I'm roaming around, like,
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: what do we got on this buffet line over here?
• 7:57
  Speaker 5: Y'all got any to-go boxes?
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: So you found Marushi? Yeah, for sure. You said there
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: were Jack? Yep, so it was, but it was good.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: Then I saw, and I saw Willie, and so, okay,
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: so I was going to wear my poncho shirt.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: Legitimate thought came into my head.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: I hate this already.
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: Okay, so, of course, like, the light purple. Everyone's, like,
• 8:21
  Speaker 5: trying to buy that one.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: It's been sold out, like, multiple times. Yeah. I didn't
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: wear it. One, it was cold. It was cool. And
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: I was going to have to, like, wear this or
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: something over it. But two, I was like, man, I
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: know Willie. He's a poncho guy, too.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: He's a poncho guy, too.
• 8:34
  Speaker 5: I was like, odds are he's going to wear that.
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:38
  Speaker 5: And we're not going to wear the same thing. So
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: I'm going to think ahead of this. I'm going to
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: get ahead of this.
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: I got you.
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: And I'm not going to wear that one because I'm
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: pretty sure he's going to wear it.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: Because, I don't know, Willie's busy. You know, he's busier
• 8:49
  Speaker 5: than I am probably. He's not going to think about that. Right.
• 8:51
  Speaker 5: He's not going to know I'm a poncho person or
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: even if, like, I'm walking down the hill.
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: So I didn't do it. So I went with the hoodie. Yeah.
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: And then, so I get there, start talking to him.
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: He thought the same thing.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: He thought, well, I'm just going to wear the purple poncho.
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: But none of us did it.
• 9:13
  Speaker 9: Oh, man.
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: He wore a sweet camo in that.
• 9:16
  Speaker 7: It's like the opposite of the Spider-Man meme when they're
• 9:18
  Speaker 7: in the same thing and.
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: They're pointing at each other.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: You're like. Exactly.
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: So it's good. So he's still represented. He did.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Oh, yeah.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: I did too. Tigers.
• 9:28
  Speaker 8: What did you say to Lane that made him laugh?
• 9:31
  Speaker 5: Probably just some sweet joke. I don't remember.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: I bet you weren't super awkward at all. I bet
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: you were smooth.
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: Well, it's funny because I rode on bus two. So
• 9:43
  Speaker 5: I sat next to Blake. Yeah.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: Chatted up.
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: And again, but I was like, oh man, this is,
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: there's not a lot of instruction, right? So I get
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: there and it's like, and they're like, yeah, you're just
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: going to jump a bus too. I'm like, all right,
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: is there a seat? Like, am I going to sit
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: on the stairs at the front.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: Of the bus?
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: This is funny because like, with the team for the
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: last couple of years, and I know exactly.
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: What you mean.
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: Everybody is already seated.
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: I don't know if it was a defensive bus or what.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, defensive bus two.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: I'm like, all right, I'm just going to go. I'm
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: just going to take a seat. And I'm like, Blake,
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: you mind if I sit here? Yeah. He's like, yeah,
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: go ahead. So I sit down, and I can tell
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: he's pausing his music and stuff. I'm like, dude, I
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: get it. I had a pregame music playlist. Play your music.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: I'm kind of the intruder in this thing. But it
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: was good. It was good. And I got off the bus, too,
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: and met Lane for the first time. First time I
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: met him.
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: Somebody was asking me, they were like, hey, has he
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: talked to him before? I said, actually, I don't think
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: he has.
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: I have not. That was the first time I met him.
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: First time. Right on top of the hill. But it
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: was good. It was fun. It was great.
• 10:50
  Speaker 6: You did lead the Tigers down Victor Hill for their
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: first shutout since.
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: First SEC shutout since when?
• 10:58
  Speaker 7: 1958.
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: No. Okay.
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: That wasn't real, by the way. Listeners, that wasn't real.
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: Don't drive off the road.
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: First SEC shutout for the LSU Fighting Tigers since.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: You were there.
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: You.
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: You played a role in the game, yeah. Did I?
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you were there.
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: If it's the one I'm thinking of, it's Mississippi State.
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: I don't know. No idea.
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: Taylor, do you know?
• 11:27
  Speaker 7: I was going to say state opener 2007. Did they
• 11:29
  Speaker 7: score late?
• 11:31
  Speaker 3: 2007, Mississippi State. Really? Opener. Thursday night. Craig Seltz just
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: got another interception.
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: Huh.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah. For his 14th of the game.
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: That was the last SEC shutout. Good for them.
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:42
  Speaker 8: And we love shutting out Mississippi State.
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: Before that, the last home SEC shutout was, you were there.
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: Again? Mississippi State.
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: But you weren't, like, you were a part of it.
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: I was there.
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: I was fake signaling?
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: Oh, three?
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: No.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: You might want to guess the last home SEC shutout.
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: It's got to be Mississippi State.
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: I can't believe y'all don't remember. I mean, I scored
• 12:09
  Speaker 3: two touchdowns in the game. God, God. 2006 Kentucky at home.
• 12:17
  Speaker 5: All right. So what you're saying, it's been a while.
• 12:21
  Speaker 5: It's been 20 years.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: That was my point.
• 12:24
  Speaker 5: Are you saying that from now on they're going to
• 12:26
  Speaker 5: make me come sit by Blake Baker?
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Yes. That was my whole point. You sat next to
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: the defensive coordinator and they.
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: Got their first SEC shutout in 20 years.
• 12:34
  Speaker 8: Did you show him eye in the sky?
• 12:35
  Speaker 5: We talked about life. He was asking me what to
• 12:38
  Speaker 5: do to get some coverages and, you know. Just kidding.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: He wasn't. No, babe, we knew.
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: You aren't like, are you serious? Wasn't asking your opinion on.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: X's and O's?
• 12:49
  Speaker 6: Now, he might have done some form of that. I
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: like talking with him on the road, like a little
• 12:55
  Speaker 6: Friday night snack. That's what me and Blake do. So
• 12:59
  Speaker 6: he might have.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: I just don't know if he was talking coverages with you.
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: What should I do if they line up in three
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: by one? Did you tell him? Yeah, shut him out, obviously.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: Touche.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Touche.
• 13:12
  Speaker 6: All right, so we will break down, obviously, in full detail, LSU,
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: Mississippi State, the Saints, and the Giants. What a crazy,
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: absolute bonkers weekend it was, not only in college football,
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: but in the NFL as well.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, if you think you've got it figured out,
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: you have no idea.
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: It was like a 2007 type. That season, how crazy
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: that season was, how many ones and twos went down.
• 13:38
  Speaker 5: This weekend felt like.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: Back-to-back weeks. Number one team in the country lost to
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: an unranked team. Amazing.
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: Back-to-back weeks. All right, we will take a break. When
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: we come back, well, we'll start that process of going
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: through these games. We'll do it right here on OTB.
• 13:52
  Speaker 5: Off the bench.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: Off the bench.
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: Off the Bench with Hester and Flynn, presented by Bayou Automotive.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Off the Bench with Hester and Flynn, presented by Bayou Automotive.
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in OTB.
• 14:48
  Speaker 6: LSU dominates Mississippi State 31 to nothing. And they scored
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: early and they scored often in this game and was
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: just what they needed after coming off a disappointing loss
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: at Kentucky.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: You're able to put the game away early.
• 15:05
  Speaker 6: You're able to get some guys off the field that
• 15:09
  Speaker 6: probably needed a little bit of an extra rest. In
• 15:12
  Speaker 6: the fourth quarter, which is very hard to do, obviously,
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: in an SEC game, but you controlled this game from
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: the very get-go. Sam Levitt, career-high 31 completions on 38 attempts,
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: 289 yards, four touchdowns. More importantly, his first game this
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: year without an interception.
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, all right.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: That's a big deal.
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: I thought Dylan Jones had a great workman's type day
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: at running back. 18 carries for 84 yards, 4.7 yards
• 15:38
  Speaker 6: per carry. Also added eight catches for 58 yards. That's become...
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: the last two weeks, that's become something that Sam Levitt
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: has utilized. And I think it's actually helped him a
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: ton to be able to have that outlet to the
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: running back.
• 15:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Dylan Jones has been a safety blanket a little
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: bit for Sam Levitt out there. And that's exactly what
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: you want. That is a, that is, I'm using that
• 16:01
  Speaker 5: term in a very good way. Like you always want
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: your running back to be a weapon and to be
• 16:07
  Speaker 5: trustworthy enough to be in the spot that you need
• 16:09
  Speaker 5: him to be that outlet, be that safety valve. Um,
• 16:13
  Speaker 5: You and I talk about it all the time. That
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: was one of the greatest things I learned when I
• 16:17
  Speaker 5: got to the NFL was always know where your running
• 16:19
  Speaker 5: back is. Always talk to your running back. Make sure
• 16:21
  Speaker 5: the running back is the last person you talk to
• 16:23
  Speaker 5: before you say hi. Yeah. Every single time. So you
• 16:26
  Speaker 5: know where he is. Now, some of this stuff, he's
• 16:28
  Speaker 5: an empty. So you're not really necessarily talking to him.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: But he's there. And whether he's doing it split out wide,
• 16:36
  Speaker 5: trying to, you know, you run that look where you
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: split your running back out wide, you get a good
• 16:40
  Speaker 5: zone man, you know, pre-snap read. But last week in Kentucky,
• 16:44
  Speaker 5: they were just giving him hitch routes outside. And that
• 16:47
  Speaker 5: happens most of the time when running backs are split out.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: A running back's usually out there for a decoy.
• 16:52
  Speaker 5: A decoy. Usually the guy's going to back off. Even
• 16:55
  Speaker 5: if they're playing zone, you've got a good corner on
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: the running back. He's going to kind of slough off
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: a little bit and try to steal the inside route
• 17:02
  Speaker 5: or steal the seam or something like that. And usually
• 17:06
  Speaker 5: they're open. Unless, like, you run a linebacker out there,
• 17:10
  Speaker 5: he probably won't be because he's going to be, like,
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: all fired up. A linebacker's going to be fired up
• 17:13
  Speaker 5: to cover the running back one-on-one because they don't ever
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: get to do that. They'll probably think it's fun.
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: And for Sam Leavitt, like, he's doing a really good
• 17:20
  Speaker 6: job of, oh, corner's out there.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: All right, it's zone. Let me just go ahead and
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: get the ball. I'm going to go with my.
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: Eyes at the beginning, look down the field, and quickly
• 17:29
  Speaker 6: get– like, if he sees zone, it's almost like he's
• 17:31
  Speaker 6: automatically going to take that free 8 to 12 yards.
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and they were certainly– playing a decent amount of
• 17:39
  Speaker 5: zone this past weekend. And there's been so much progression
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: with Sam Leavitt, so much progression throughout the season. And that's,
• 17:47
  Speaker 5: of course, that's what you want, especially with college-age quarterbacks.
• 17:50
  Speaker 5: You want them to progress. We saw him progress in
• 17:53
  Speaker 5: the past game after his hamstring. And then I'm sure
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: these coaches have been harping on him, harping on him,
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: like coaching him every single day about going through his progression,
• 18:01
  Speaker 5: going through his reads, slowing down. Well, he's doing all that.
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: And yes, against zone, there's sometimes you have these pass plays.
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: You have these route progressions that you know aren't the
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: greatest versus zone, but you know you have a good
• 18:14
  Speaker 5: outlet to your check down. So you take a drop
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: back and you get to the back of your drop.
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: And if it's not there, if the route has not
• 18:21
  Speaker 5: presented itself, the concept hasn't presented itself, your read has
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: not taken you and no one's showing right now. Go
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: ahead and get it against zone. Go ahead and get
• 18:28
  Speaker 5: it to your right of back. Let him go get it.
• 18:29
  Speaker 5: Let him put his foot in the ground. And he's shown, like,
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: Dylan's so sudden. Like, he can turn a four-yard reception
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: into a six, seven, eight, ten-yard reception in no time. So,
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: as a quarterback, yes, there's a lot of times in
• 18:43
  Speaker 5: zone where you could sit there, hold the ball, wait, wait, wait,
• 18:45
  Speaker 5: because you think something might come open behind it. Especially
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: normal down a distance early in the game, just like
• 18:52
  Speaker 5: we saw. Like, look, get the ball out of your hand.
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: And let's move, let's move, let's just move the stakes.
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: And so Sam is doing that. He's made a lot
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: of progressions just playing the quarterback position, and this was
• 19:03
  Speaker 5: one of his best outings for sure.
• 19:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, speaking of progressing as the season goes along, how
• 19:08
  Speaker 6: about receiver Jackson Harris? He had six catches, 85 yards,
• 19:12
  Speaker 6: and two touchdowns. Now he did have to leave early
• 19:15
  Speaker 6: with an injury, so we'll pay attention to that this
• 19:17
  Speaker 6: week as they get ready to travel to Auburn. But
• 19:19
  Speaker 6: he has become, without a doubt for me, the most
• 19:22
  Speaker 6: trusted guy to Sam Levitt since Trey Des Green has
• 19:24
  Speaker 6: been out. And we've been waiting on somebody to kind
• 19:27
  Speaker 6: of step up and take that role. It is Jackson Harris.
• 19:29
  Speaker 6: You can tell on money downs, he wants to try
• 19:32
  Speaker 6: to get the football to number four. Number four, he's
• 19:36
  Speaker 6: shown strong hands. And he's been able to have contested catches.
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: And you needed somebody to emerge to be that guy.
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: And hopefully, again, I don't know what his injury and
• 19:47
  Speaker 6: severity of it, at least, and what it's going to
• 19:49
  Speaker 6: look like.
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: For the rest of this week.
• 19:51
  Speaker 6: But Jackson Harris unquestionably has become Sam Levitt's favorite target.
• 19:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he is certainly one of those guys that has
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: progressed a ton. He's just become– and a lot of
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: times when you have a big game as a receiver,
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: it's just kind of how the chips fall in the
• 20:07
  Speaker 5: game plan. You're not necessarily designing plays all the time
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: to go to a certain person. Now, sometimes you do
• 20:13
  Speaker 5: as a coordinator, but sometimes it's just do you have
• 20:17
  Speaker 5: the right route against the right coverage? Does the quarterback
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: see you? Sometimes you're number one in the route concept
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: against cover three, but you might be number three in
• 20:27
  Speaker 5: the route concept versus cover two. So a lot of
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: that is fortune sometimes and making sure everything falls the
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: right direction, but the coaches have done a really nice
• 20:35
  Speaker 5: job of getting him lined up pre-snap into the places
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: where he's going to be at the top of the
• 20:40
  Speaker 5: progression every time. So it's, and he's doing a great,
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: like once the ball's in his hand, like that first
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: touchdown he scored was awesome. It was, it was awesome
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: individual effort by him, but then an awesome team effort
• 20:53
  Speaker 5: to get him into the end zone.
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: That's, you know, it hurts you one week and then
• 20:57
  Speaker 5: helps you.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: If they would have.
• 20:58
  Speaker 6: Called for progress stopped, I was going to go down
• 21:01
  Speaker 6: there and have a really strong conversation with the official.
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: No, you don't do that.
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: How would you have started the convo?
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: Look here, buddy.
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: Look here, pal.
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: Zebra.
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: I'm going to get you.
• 21:14
  Speaker 6: Jackson Harris now has five touchdowns in the last three
• 21:17
  Speaker 6: SEC games. He had two against A & M, one
• 21:20
  Speaker 6: against Kentucky, two against Mississippi State. So certainly somebody that
• 21:24
  Speaker 6: has been raising his level of play. And again, you're
• 21:27
  Speaker 6: pretty close to the initial reports, you know, trade as green,
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: Alabama game. You're pretty close, right? You get him back
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: and Look, we don't really know what it's going to
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: be like. Trades has missed a lot of games in
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: a row now. But once you get him back and
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: you have a guy like a Jackson Harris that has
• 21:43
  Speaker 6: emerged and become somebody that Sam Leavitt can trust, it's
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: only going to go up when you get Trades Green
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: back in there.
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, man. Was he wearing a boot? Who? Harris? I
• 22:00
  Speaker 5: saw a clip of somebody. And I was going through
• 22:02
  Speaker 5: social media because somebody came out of the tent on Saturday.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: I know it probably was him because I think it
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: was an ankle.
• 22:11
  Speaker 8: Wait, what was your question?
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: Was he wearing a Harris?
• 22:14
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: Harris was wearing a boot coming out of the tent.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: Because Gordy on the broadcast said it was ankle related. Yeah.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: Just hope it's low. Hope it's low and not high.
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: If it's high, we'll see you in Alabama.
• 22:27
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's not the best thing to come out
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: of the tent on the sideline with a boot.
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: Now, I will say, and Doc would tell us this, too,
• 22:35
  Speaker 6: if he was here, LSU will throw out a boot
• 22:38
  Speaker 6: real quick.
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: Real quick.
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: Like, guys that have played on Saturday have gotten on
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: the plane on Friday in a boot.
• 22:45
  Speaker 7: Well, people see a boot, and they're like, oh, crap,
• 22:47
  Speaker 7: they broke something. It just stabilizes the ankle or the
• 22:50
  Speaker 7: foot or whatever you're looking for.
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, J-Bone's had a high ankle. He's been wearing a boot.
• 22:54
  Speaker 5: I mean, I get it. Boots are good.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: No, I'm saying, but if it's a high ankle, he's
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: not playing.
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: During game, it's a little alarming.
• 23:01
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 23:05
  Speaker 5: It hit five touchdowns.
• 23:09
  Speaker 6: I'm here in the first time in 763 days we
• 23:13
  Speaker 6: get to celebrate a Saints and LSU victory, and this
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: is what you bring?
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: I'm celebrating.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Negative energy?
• 23:19
  Speaker 5: I'm celebrating. I also want him to be healthy. Who's
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: a good comp for him?
• 23:25
  Speaker 8: Jackson Harris?
• 23:27
  Speaker 9: I don't know, but I'm glad that he's starting to
• 23:29
  Speaker 9: finally get a lot of targets and stuff because I
• 23:31
  Speaker 9: feel like he was always open when Sam was kind
• 23:34
  Speaker 9: of Bean Sam at the beginning of the season.
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: Doing his hoppy thing. Yeah.
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: He's been really good.
• 23:40
  Speaker 8: He's so good.
• 23:41
  Speaker 5: He's been very good. Let's see how tall he is.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: How tall is Harris?
• 23:46
  Speaker 9: 6'4? 6'2.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: 6'2?
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:47
  Speaker 5: I was thinking Wilson. He's listed as 6'3. Michael Wilson. Yep.
• 23:51
  Speaker 5: Michael Wilson. First name that popped up. Oh, there's like
• 23:56
  Speaker 5: a receiver from like the.
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: Tell me which team. I can get you there.
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: I want to say it's another Cardinals receiver.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: Boldy? And Quan Bolden?
• 24:05
  Speaker 7: No.
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: Early Doucette? Yeah.
• 24:11
  Speaker 6: I don't know, but, yeah, you needed it. He's been
• 24:13
  Speaker 6: that guy in the last couple of weeks. He has
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: certainly been somebody you can count on. So, again, we'll
• 24:19
  Speaker 6: hear from Lane a little bit later today in his
• 24:21
  Speaker 6: press conference.
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: On the show? No, not on this show. But, I mean,
• 24:25
  Speaker 3: you were supposed to close that at the top of
• 24:27
  Speaker 3: the hill this weekend. You didn't do that.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: He was asking me about coverages again. Blake was asking
• 24:35
  Speaker 5: me on the bus there.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: So they just hit you from all angles, huh? Oh, yeah.
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: I was like, what should we do with this? That's
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: pretty much the whole conversation.
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: Did you give him a couple of quarter speeders? Yeah.
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: That's why he's laughing. You asked me earlier.
• 24:46
  Speaker 8: Oh, because you were, yeah.
• 24:47
  Speaker 5: I gave him a good play. So Sam's performance was
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: kind of on you. Yeah, like three of those touchdowns
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: was what.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: I told him to do. So the shutout and Sam's performance.
• 24:56
  Speaker 5: Yes. For sure.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: Both sides of the football.
• 24:59
  Speaker 5: Special teams do. Do you just get credited for this win?
• 25:01
  Speaker 5: Like Lane doesn't get this win as a head coach.
• 25:03
  Speaker 5: This is all you. I should. I mean, there is
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: video proof of him being so happy that he laughs.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: Fair enough.
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: If we switch over to the other side of the
• 25:15
  Speaker 6: football for LSU and we realize that they were down
• 25:18
  Speaker 6: a couple of offensive players, but still it's an SEC
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: football team. You got to go out there. You got
• 25:23
  Speaker 6: to play. And that's exactly what the LSU defense did.
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: T.J.
• 25:27
  Speaker 6: Dottery had 12 tackles in the game. Devon Keyes had
• 25:29
  Speaker 6: 10 tackles on the game. Also added half a sack
• 25:33
  Speaker 6: in one and a half TFLs. Jordan Ross got back
• 25:36
  Speaker 6: into the conversation. He gets a sack in two and
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: a half TFLs as well. A dominant performance by the
• 25:43
  Speaker 6: LSU defense.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: They were flying around. They had a purpose.
• 25:47
  Speaker 6: Even when the backups got in there, I was proud
• 25:49
  Speaker 6: of the backups because I was going to be really
• 25:50
  Speaker 6: angry if they gave up a shutout.
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: And look, you've been on the sidelines.
• 25:54
  Speaker 6: You know when the first team defense does what they
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: did and the backups get in there, they want that
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: shutout so bad. And then the backups got in there
• 26:03
  Speaker 6: and Mississippi State was running the football.
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: I was like, all right, guys. All right now.
• 26:06
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 26:07
  Speaker 3: And we had already given the stat.
• 26:09
  Speaker 6: Last time they shut out an SEC team was 2007.
• 26:13
  Speaker 6: So really wanted the shutout for this LSU team. And
• 26:15
  Speaker 6: credit to the backups because that hasn't always been the case.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: Couple of games.
• 26:20
  Speaker 6: Think about how many games LSU's first-team defense had a
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: shutout or gave up three points. They come out, and
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: all of a sudden, here goes a touchdown the other way.
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: And speaking of Blake, Blake was not very happy about that.
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: There was a point of emphasis over the last couple
• 26:33
  Speaker 6: of weeks.
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: When you get in there, it's the same standard. And
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: credit to those guys for holding it up.
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: For sure. Defense played fantastic. Blake Baker's defense is very–
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: He runs a really good defense. He's very aggressive. It
• 26:48
  Speaker 5: shows you a lot of different looks. And you have
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: to be able to go against his defense. Just think
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: about the injuries that he has on the defense side
• 26:57
  Speaker 5: of the ball and what they're able to do. You
• 26:59
  Speaker 5: have to play the quarterback position at a very high
• 27:02
  Speaker 5: level to be able to have success against Blake Baker's defense.
• 27:07
  Speaker 5: Just because they present to you so many things pre-snap,
• 27:11
  Speaker 5: then you have to be able to react to stuff
• 27:13
  Speaker 5: post-snap that is completely different than what you saw pre-snap.
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: It just, they fly around.
• 27:19
  Speaker 5: He does a good job of mixing things up and
• 27:22
  Speaker 5: giving the quarterback a lot to look at. They, they
• 27:24
  Speaker 5: have to, they have to sort through a lot of
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: things mentally to be able to play. So you have
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: to play the quarterback position at a very high level
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: to be able to beat that play. And we've seen,
• 27:33
  Speaker 5: we've seen people do that. Of course, a lot of
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: that has to do with quarterbacks making plays plus injuries
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: that you have had. And a lot of those things
• 27:40
  Speaker 5: add up. Um, But if you're not, if you, if
• 27:44
  Speaker 5: your team does not have a quarterback that is playing
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: at a high level and certainly Mississippi state didn't. Yeah.
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: Then you're not going to have any success against Blake
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: Baker and that defense. And I don't care how many
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: injuries they sustain. You're just not going to do it consistently.
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: You might catch one every now and then you might
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: catch a, you know, I read it perfectly. I looked
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: at the right, you know, maybe I looked at the
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: wrong thing, but it ended up being right type situation. Um,
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: But if you don't play quarterback at a high level,
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: you are just not going to have success this year
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: versus that defense.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: All right, we will step away.
• 28:17
  Speaker 6: Going to continue breaking down the great weekend here in
• 28:20
  Speaker 6: the state of Louisiana on the Gridiron, and we'll do
• 28:22

  Speaker 6: In the chat, because the Saints and LSU won for
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: the first time in the same weekend, 763 days.
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: And DJ Alondra bringing you happy music all morning.
• 31:21
  Speaker 8: We're going to be so positive today.
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: We're going to be so positive. It's going to be crazy.
• 31:25
  Speaker 8: I'm going to be like Pollyanna.
• 31:26
  Speaker 5: I'm not going to say anything negative today. Unless something
• 31:30
  Speaker 5: negative happens, then I'll.
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: Talk about it. Yeah, but I say you're a pretty
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: negative person, so.
• 31:35
  Speaker 5: What are you talking about? Everybody wants to listen to
• 31:37
  Speaker 5: a radio show with just both happy-go-lucky dudes. So you're
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: just playing a role?
• 31:43
  Speaker 8: Somebody's got to be the villain.
• 31:44
  Speaker 5: Somebody's got to be the villain. CJ, you're just playing
• 31:46
  Speaker 5: a part. Huh? You're just playing a part. It's just
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: a bit. Yeah, I get you.
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: Dane says, QB1 should go with the team to Auburn.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: He is Auburn's nemesis.
• 31:54
  Speaker 6: I didn't get to go to the 2007 game. I
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: watched it from Afghanistan.
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: Shout out to Dane.
• 32:00
  Speaker 5: Shout out to Dane. Thank you for your service. Thank
• 32:02
  Speaker 5: you to all of our service.
• 32:03
  Speaker 3: He's the only good throw through that game.
• 32:05
  Speaker 5: No, I'm just kidding. They were tree bills.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: I had one from you, I think. A little F under.
• 32:13
  Speaker 5: Okay.
• 32:14
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: I think that was that game.
• 32:15
  Speaker 5: Watch your mouth, bud.
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: What?
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: F under?
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: It's a play. I don't know.
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: I think I was at F. I might have been
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: at H. I don't know. I just know I went under.
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: I didn't caught it and then dove. Probably threw it
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: behind me. That's why. Numbers.
• 32:33
  Speaker 5: Fair enough, I think.
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: Somebody else inside the chat. Auburn is going to counter
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: LSU to death.
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: They are.
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: That's funny you ask. They run counter 19% of the
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: time on their run plays. Out of 190 runs, they've
• 32:55
  Speaker 6: run counter 36 times.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: Pretty good percentage. Outside zone, 19%. Inside zone, 25%.
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: Duo, 7%. Power, 9%.
• 33:01
  Speaker 3: And counter, 19%.
• 33:07
  Speaker 5: It's a good spread.
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: Also 13 draws in the year. Pretty big. 14 pull leads.
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: It's pretty good diversity in the running game there.
• 33:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I like that. I like that spread. That's
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: the way a good quality or at least well-coached offense
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: should operate with a lot of diversity in the running game.
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: And I would expect nothing less than a first-year head
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: coach that feels like runs a pretty good, pretty solid program.
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: Obviously got a very nice win. this past weekend.
• 33:40
  Speaker 6: Yeah, when you look, I mean, their losses, they lost
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: a five-point game against Florida. They went on the road
• 33:48
  Speaker 6: and lost by 10 to Tennessee, but they just beat
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: the number one team in the country on the road.
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: They lost to Florida, but like, Florida, who are you?
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: Are you real?
• 33:59
  Speaker 6: I don't know. I don't know if anybody knows that.
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: And we can say that about a couple teams.
• 34:06
  Speaker 8: We did the parlay hit?
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, no.
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: Let's see.
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: I guess we didn't. Thanks for bringing that one up, guys.
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: There's one. I thought we were going to zoom past it.
• 34:15
  Speaker 8: We didn't let Matt live it down. We're not zooming past.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there was five picks in the pontoon parlay. Matt,
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: did yours hit?
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: Mine hit.
• 34:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Elijah, did yours hit?
• 34:25
  Speaker 8: Mine hit.
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, mine did, too. Did Dickson's hit?
• 34:28
  Speaker 8: His hit, yeah.
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: The first guest pick that we've had that's hit?
• 34:30
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 34:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so great weekend. Cash those tickets.
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: Yeah, has to.
• 34:35
  Speaker 8: If you left Tay-Tay off for Parley, yeah.
• 34:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you only mentioned four. We forgot that there's somebody
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: in the Wolfpack who loves to say Roll Tide. See,
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: that's what it says.
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: That was what I get for picking Alabama, right? That's
• 34:50
  Speaker 7: my punishment.
• 34:54
  Speaker 5: It's a bad look, Tay. It happens. I would never, ever,
• 35:02
  Speaker 5: like Hunt when he picked Ole Miss. I would never
• 35:05
  Speaker 5: pick Notre Dame. Would never pick it. Even if I
• 35:09
  Speaker 5: thought they.
• 35:09
  Speaker 8: Were going to cover.
• 35:10
  Speaker 9: That was really, I felt so happy for you.
• 35:14
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 35:15
  Speaker 8: Whenever BYU.
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: I was happy for me too. Yeah. I was just happy.
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: There was a lot of happiness on Saturday. And I
• 35:24
  Speaker 5: don't know, like, I was happy that LSU won.
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: You were thrilled, though, that Notre Dame lost.
• 35:30
  Speaker 5: That BYU won. Yeah. It was like that book ended
• 35:33
  Speaker 5: your day, right?
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: It did.
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: You started with LSU. You ended with Notre Dame. Again,
• 35:37
  Speaker 5: it was like anticlimactic for LSU to win. Happy they won.
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: Great that they looked like.
• 35:41
  Speaker 8: Yeah, but they were supposed to.
• 35:42
  Speaker 5: Even happier that Sam Levitt played great.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 35:44
  Speaker 5: But they were playing a backup quarterback. Yeah, they're supposed
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: to win.
• 35:47
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm.
• 35:48
  Speaker 8: The amount of joy that.
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: I took away for BYU beating Notre Dame was very high.
• 35:52
  Speaker 6: Did it make it even better that Notre Dame fans
• 35:55
  Speaker 6: wanted a pass interference and there was technically one second
• 35:57
  Speaker 6: left when they called the game?
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: Does it make it even better?
• 36:00
  Speaker 5: I don't know. Does it make it even better? No,
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: they weren't going to score anyway if they got another play.
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: No, I'm saying, like, I kind of think it's better.
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: Notre Dame fans can complain about, you know, not getting
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: the benefit of the doubt. It's a lot like the
• 36:12
  Speaker 7: Alabama fans who were yelling about the Georgia pass interference,
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: which was, it's like, come on, man, sit this one out.
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I sent this one out. You've been on the
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: right side of that deal for years. And did the
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: Big 12 come out the next day and say there
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: should have been one?
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Okay.
• 36:27
  Speaker 5: The Big 12 did. What does Notre Dame have on it?
• 36:29
  Speaker 5: When does anybody admit a mistake?
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 36:32
  Speaker 5: When does anybody do it?
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: Very rarely in this sport.
• 36:35
  Speaker 5: Within 12 hours, 15 hours of this happening, they admit
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: a mistake because it's Notre Dame. What does Notre Dame
• 36:43
  Speaker 5: have on everybody?
• 36:44
  Speaker 3: I don't know. The AP, they're.
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: Number four in the country still.
• 36:49
  Speaker 8: That's absurd.
• 36:50
  Speaker 5: That is rage baiting.
• 36:51
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's like rage baiting for sure.
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: Get ready.
• 36:55
  Speaker 7: You're going to hear the arguments that, wow, the guys
• 36:57
  Speaker 7: that were on the road, they were number eight.
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: Did you see the environment? Lost to a top 10 team.
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: On the road.
• 37:02
  Speaker 8: So many Mormons there?
• 37:03
  Speaker 3: So many.
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: Nobody can play in that.
• 37:05
  Speaker 8: Guys, good news.
• 37:07
  Speaker 9: Not only did LSU and the Saints win, we know
• 37:09
  Speaker 9: Tulane won too.
• 37:11
  Speaker 8: But also, the Pelicans won their exhibition game.
• 37:14
  Speaker 3: Flock up.
• 37:15
  Speaker 8: Flock up.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and I put that out there.
• 37:17
  Speaker 8: Shout out, Matthew, for texting that.
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: Shout out.
• 37:21
  Speaker 6: I put it out there, the stat, and I wasn't
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: trying to leave Tulane or anybody else, Louisiana Tech or
• 37:27
  Speaker 6: anybody else in Louisiana out.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: It was just using.
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: Those two teams because it had been so long since
• 37:32
  Speaker 6: they together had won. So a lot of people did
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: reply to my tweet saying Tulane also won.
• 37:38
  Speaker 3: And they did.
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: They did.
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: But it wasn't. trying to celebrate just those two teams.
• 37:43
  Speaker 6: They were saying, hey, these two teams haven't won on
• 37:46
  Speaker 6: the same weekend. 763 days. So you mentioned the AP
• 37:52
  Speaker 6: poll there. Let's do this. Let's take a break on
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: time-ish because I do actually want to yell at that
• 37:58
  Speaker 6: a little bit.
• 38:01
  Speaker 5: But there's a hard week to rank for sure.
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: Very, very hard.
• 38:06
  Speaker 6: But I understand what you're saying too about– Notre Dame
• 38:10
  Speaker 6: and like where they didn't fall to, what that kind
• 38:13
  Speaker 6: of looks like. BYU got a bunch of first place votes.
• 38:16
  Speaker 6: They've been craving the Buckeyes to maybe, you know, find
• 38:20
  Speaker 6: a way to put them back in there, which they're climbing.
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: So we'll talk about all of that when we come
• 38:23
  Speaker 6: back here on OTV.
• 38:25
  Speaker 8: Off the bench.

  Speaker 6: first-place votes. At number 3, Ohio State with 9 first-place votes.
• 40:42
  Speaker 6: Followed by number 4, Notre Dame. Number 5, Georgia. Number 6, Indiana.
• 40:46
  Speaker 6: Number 7, Ole Miss. Number 8, Texas Tech with 1
• 40:49
  Speaker 6: first-place vote. Number 9, UCLA. And number 10, Utah. That
• 40:54
  Speaker 6: is what it looks like in the AP poll 1
• 40:56
  Speaker 6: through 10.
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: Where do y'all want to point to first to say?
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: Number one. All right, go ahead.
• 41:06
  Speaker 8: He's like, me, me, me.
• 41:08
  Speaker 6: Like, we're playing Family Feud.
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: I couldn't even get the answer or the question before
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: I got the answer.
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: The Miami Hurricanes. Okay, I get it. If you just
• 41:18
  Speaker 5: look on paper, you take this on paper, they rightful
• 41:22
  Speaker 5: number one, right? They were, what, number three in the country?
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: Mm-hmm.
• 41:26
  Speaker 5: Number one and two, you lost, blah, blah, blah. Like,
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: that makes sense. That makes a ton of sense. But
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: if you just look at the games, right, if you
• 41:35
  Speaker 5: just look at how the game was played, they should have,
• 41:40
  Speaker 5: could have, they scraped by, they got lucky to beat
• 41:46
  Speaker 5: Florida State. Florida State, not good, right?
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, no.
• 41:50
  Speaker 5: They've had their moments. They beat Virginia, who we thought
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: was a pretty good team. They're good against good teams.
• 41:54
  Speaker 5: It's wild. Yeah, it is weird, but they got crushed
• 41:58
  Speaker 5: by Louisville. They got crushed by Bama. They got beat
• 42:01
  Speaker 5: by SMU. They've just consistently, we talk about that coach
• 42:06
  Speaker 5: getting fired every single week, it feels like. Like, when's
• 42:09
  Speaker 5: his last week? When's his last week? They can't afford
• 42:11
  Speaker 5: to fire him, blah, blah, blah. The way that looked,
• 42:14
  Speaker 5: and to me, it should be BYU.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: I know everybody wants Ohio State in there, but to
• 42:20
  Speaker 5: me it should be BYU.
• 42:22
  Speaker 3: I would have BYU as well.
• 42:23
  Speaker 5: Because of how highly all these idiots across the country,
• 42:29
  Speaker 5: how good they think Notre Dame is, they're still number
• 42:33
  Speaker 5: four after losing. So obviously they think they're the greatest
• 42:36
  Speaker 5: team ever. They think they could beat the 2000 Patriots
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: because they're so good, even though they hadn't played a
• 42:43
  Speaker 5: ranked opponent in 331 days, and then they play a
• 42:46
  Speaker 5: ranked opponent and they lose. But they think they're good,
• 42:49
  Speaker 5: and they're still not going to put the team that
• 42:52
  Speaker 5: beat them number one. Obviously, BYU, undefeated, beats a better
• 42:57
  Speaker 5: team than Miami did. Now, is Miami deserving because of
• 43:01
  Speaker 5: where they were? Yes, I get it. But I think
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: the argument could be made and should be made. And
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: I think what the coaches pulled there were three, BYU.
• 43:10
  Speaker 5: They are, yeah, number three with ten first-place votes. It
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: goes Miami, Ohio State, BYU. I would have BYU number one.
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: I'm right there with you. I would have Miami down
• 43:19
  Speaker 5: at four. Their best win is at number 17, Wake Forest.
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: I would have them at four. You would have Notre
• 43:26
  Speaker 5: Dame at four?
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: No, no, no. Miami.
• 43:28
  Speaker 5: I know.
• 43:29
  Speaker 6: I would have Notre Dame probably at 10 or 11.
• 43:31
  Speaker 6: I would actually have Kentucky all the way up to
• 43:33
  Speaker 6: number six. All the way up to number six. Kentucky
• 43:37
  Speaker 6: has wins against LSU at home, at Oklahoma, at Texas
• 43:42
  Speaker 6: A & M, and at South Carolina.
• 43:44
  Speaker 5: It's better than anything on Notre Dame's schedule.
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: No doubt about it.
• 43:47
  Speaker 8: I don't hate that.
• 43:47
  Speaker 5: It's four things better.
• 43:51
  Speaker 6: I mean, I would have Ole Miss pretty high up there.
• 43:53
  Speaker 6: I'd have them probably at four or five.
• 43:56
  Speaker 5: Kentucky's played more good teams than Notre Dame has in
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: three seasons, by the way.
• 44:05
  Speaker 6: So, like, when you look at that, like going on
• 44:07
  Speaker 6: the road against those teams and beating those teams and
• 44:09
  Speaker 6: then also having an LSU victory, you can't argue that.
• 44:13
  Speaker 6: We're going off vibes and what we think with Notre
• 44:15
  Speaker 6: Dame at number four. Their best win is Wake Forest.
• 44:18
  Speaker 5: In all fairness.
• 44:19
  Speaker 3: I think Wake Forest is good.
• 44:20
  Speaker 5: After the insanity that was this past Saturday, this was
• 44:23
  Speaker 5: an impossible ranking. You're not going to get anything right.
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: You're just like, all right, just put these people here.
• 44:29
  Speaker 5: Let's hear it. This is going to be very argumentative.
• 44:35
  Speaker 5: Just throw a grenade and launch it into college football
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: on Saturday. That's what they did.
• 44:40
  Speaker 3: It's not going to rank Auburn, huh? I was about
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: to say, there's some questions about that in the chat.
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: We'll get to that. We'll get to the new one.
