- 0:36Speaker 3: We are not live from downtown Beton Rouge, Big voice, lady,
- 0:40Speaker 3: We're actually live from Rouse's Market. Very excited to be
- 0:45Speaker 3: back here. It is another football Friday. The only difference
- 0:51Speaker 3: this football Friday, You're LSU Tigers.
- 0:54Speaker 2: Are wanting to know. I want to know, just like
- 0:56Speaker 2: the shirt says.
- 0:57Speaker 3: They weren't that last time that we were here, but
- 1:00Speaker 3: they are now. Yeah, we were hopeful. We knew it.
- 1:03Speaker 3: There was never a doubt. Of course we knew it.
- 1:06Speaker 3: We went five for five on our picks last week.
- 1:08Speaker 2: No big deal. We sure did. We're about to go.
- 1:11Speaker 3: Four, four for four well through the fifth in there.
- 1:15Speaker 3: Since we all picked LSU.
- 1:17Speaker 4: That's fair, Yeah, that's fair. We'll pick them again this week.
- 1:20Speaker 4: Money Line, that's a hot take right.
- 1:23Speaker 2: There, a very hot take.
- 1:26Speaker 3: Louisiana Tech the Bulldogs coming to town, and so we'll
- 1:30Speaker 3: give you a little bit more of a preview of
- 1:32Speaker 3: that squad. Last week against Southeastern they were up three
- 1:37Speaker 3: to nothing and a half time ended up putting them
- 1:39Speaker 3: away in the fourth quarter. So we'll can give you
- 1:41Speaker 3: a game preview. One final look at the New Orleans
- 1:45Speaker 3: Saints as they get ready for the Arizona Cardinals. We
- 1:48Speaker 3: had action last night in the National Football League. It's
- 1:52Speaker 3: actually a much better game than I think we anticipated.
- 1:55Speaker 3: Did you get a little nervous considering you picked the
- 1:58Speaker 3: Eagles to be your survivor?
- 2:00Speaker 4: No, it would have been actually pretty fitting if we
- 2:02Speaker 4: lost week one of our survivor just because I was
- 2:07Speaker 4: feeling pretty cocky about my pick.
- 2:09Speaker 2: I was feeling pretty good about it.
- 2:10Speaker 4: I thought the Cowboys were in absolute shambles. But I
- 2:14Speaker 4: guess that just goes to show you can't really believe
- 2:17Speaker 4: what you hear from the media. You can't really believe
- 2:20Speaker 4: what you hear leading up to a season, which gives
- 2:24Speaker 4: me hope for the Saints, right because this is still
- 2:26Speaker 4: NFL football, This is still NFL football players.
- 2:29Speaker 2: But yeah, what a great game it was. Man.
- 2:31Speaker 4: The Cowboys came out executing on every level. I mean
- 2:34Speaker 4: we we can get into a little bit more depth
- 2:40Speaker 4: about spitgate and the entire you know, hawk and loogies
- 2:43Speaker 4: on other people before games even start, before the first snap. Yeah,
- 2:47Speaker 4: but well, what a wild start to that game. But
- 2:50Speaker 4: the Cowboys, man, I don't know if Taylor's having sellers
- 2:54Speaker 4: remorse or not, but he can't go back.
- 2:57Speaker 2: He can't go he can't go back now.
- 2:59Speaker 4: He can't go even if they would have won, which
- 3:00Speaker 4: they they probably, you know, arguably could have should have
- 3:04Speaker 4: won a couple of misplays by Ceede Lamb, who played
- 3:07Speaker 4: a great game all the way up till they had
- 3:09Speaker 4: a couple of drops at the end. But man, Dak
- 3:12Speaker 4: Prescott actually played pretty darn good yesterday.
- 3:16Speaker 3: Yeah, and look, you had a delay in action and
- 3:20Speaker 3: what was at the end of the third quarter, so
- 3:22Speaker 3: you finally get back on the field, but you know,
- 3:24Speaker 3: a big fumble as we're watching it actually here, Yeah,
- 3:27Speaker 3: the fumble happened as we are talking about the fumble happened.
- 3:31Speaker 2: In the third quarter.
- 3:32Speaker 3: Uh, that was one of the big game changing moments
- 3:35Speaker 3: because the Cowboys are going to get points no matter
- 3:38Speaker 3: what if they hold them to.
- 3:38Speaker 4: The football there. Yeah, that was that's unfortunate. It's always
- 3:42Speaker 4: it's always tough to because it was the it was
- 3:44Speaker 4: the second running back coming in kind of to spell
- 3:46Speaker 4: your starter a little bit, gets a big carry, makes
- 3:49Speaker 4: a funnel. I think he's a former Eagle to the
- 3:51Speaker 4: running back, so I'm sure that team. But uh yeah,
- 3:54Speaker 4: great game came down to the end. Had a couple
- 3:56Speaker 4: of drops there at the end too, But man, that.
- 3:59Speaker 2: That played great.
- 4:00Speaker 4: The Eagles are great. Jalen Hurts looked like he just
- 4:05Speaker 4: picked up right where he left off. But that defense
- 4:09Speaker 4: of theirs did not look immovable. They did not look
- 4:12Speaker 4: at unstoppable. Yeah, that game starts out. Wow, man, what
- 4:16Speaker 4: a wild start to the National Football League season twenty
- 4:21Speaker 4: twenty five season opening kickoff. You know they're lined up
- 4:24Speaker 4: five yards apart from each other. Yeah, a guy blows
- 4:27Speaker 4: his knee out. Yeah, and he's laying on the field.
- 4:30Speaker 4: Nobody's watching what's happening. But Jalen Carter for the Philadelphia Eagles,
- 4:36Speaker 4: their best player on defense and All Pro defensive lineman,
- 4:39Speaker 4: an absolute show stopper, a game change or somebody you
- 4:43Speaker 4: have to plan your entire offensive game plan at least
- 4:46Speaker 4: the running game around spits on Tag Prescott. Yeah, it
- 4:51Speaker 4: gets kicked out of the game. Yeah, and my god,
- 4:55Speaker 4: was just everybody poo pooing on that guy the entire zion,
- 4:58Speaker 4: which rightfully so.
- 4:59Speaker 2: You don't spin on another man.
- 5:00Speaker 4: That's probably one of the most disrespectful things you can
- 5:03Speaker 4: do to somebody. But in the second half, new footage
- 5:07Speaker 4: shows we had a second spinner. We had a second spinner.
- 5:11Speaker 4: He was actually the first spell on the grassy knoll.
- 5:14Speaker 4: We had a second spinner. Dak Prescott in a quote
- 5:18Speaker 4: after the game saying, defending his rookie offensive lineman, he
- 5:22Speaker 4: didn't know what Jalen car was doing on their side
- 5:23Speaker 4: of the football. Yeah, kind of getting in the head.
- 5:26Speaker 4: He defends him, and he said, I spit. Deck said,
- 5:29Speaker 4: I spit thousands of times in a game.
- 5:31Speaker 2: I spit.
- 5:31Speaker 4: I was just trying not to hit my lineman. I
- 5:33Speaker 4: spit right past their shoulders onto the ground. That's it, man,
- 5:40Speaker 4: I mean that man got caught. It was what seemed
- 5:44Speaker 4: to be seven hundred HD cameras. I was about to
- 5:47Speaker 4: say that Lugi was flying all day, like you saw
- 5:50Speaker 4: every angle that Lougi.
- 5:51Speaker 2: Yeah, the shape of it, but trajectory, yeah, you are
- 5:55Speaker 2: not going to get away with stuff like that. Anywore game.
- 5:59Speaker 4: Yeah, and you get kicked out and man, he was
- 6:01Speaker 4: like you could tell on his face he's like, oh man,
- 6:03Speaker 4: this stinks.
- 6:04Speaker 2: I really kind of messed up.
- 6:05Speaker 4: But like, uh, hate of the moment, but you might
- 6:09Speaker 4: as well be spitting on the chest of your team
- 6:12Speaker 4: right there at that point.
- 6:13Speaker 3: Yeah, but it ended up being a really good game,
- 6:15Speaker 3: twenty four to twenty the Eagles. When we got another
- 6:18Speaker 3: game tonight, it is the Chargers in Chiefs.
- 6:21Speaker 2: That's going to be at seven pm.
- 6:24Speaker 3: We had high school football in a couple of places
- 6:26Speaker 3: last night, so football definitely not only in the air.
- 6:29Speaker 3: It is all over the place, and so a full
- 6:32Speaker 3: slate of games on Saturday. The New Orleans Saints play
- 6:35Speaker 3: on Sunday. And it is finally here where everything is
- 6:39Speaker 3: in action.
- 6:40Speaker 2: So man's baby, we're back. It is. It's an exciting time.
- 6:44Speaker 2: It's a great time.
- 6:44Speaker 3: I had the opportunity I was telling y'all yesterday, I
- 6:48Speaker 3: got a chance to go watch my oldest son playing
- 6:51Speaker 3: his first varsity game. Is like, you know, somebody that's
- 6:53Speaker 3: the starter and going out there that was a lot
- 6:55Speaker 3: of fun. They were victorious, the victorious, they're victorious. They
- 6:59Speaker 3: beat Woodlaw, but It was a good It was a
- 7:01Speaker 3: very cool feeling.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Man.
- 7:02Speaker 3: You see him run out of the tunnel and go
- 7:04Speaker 3: out there on the field and get his name called
- 7:07Speaker 3: for the starters, and so that's very cool feeling. Man.
- 7:09Speaker 2: There was something certainly I would would never want to
- 7:12Speaker 2: miss that.
- 7:13Speaker 4: How how often did you find you having your cell
- 7:16Speaker 4: phone up video?
- 7:17Speaker 2: Did you try to keep it down? No?
- 7:19Speaker 3: See, yeah, yeah, I was down because I yeah, Katie
- 7:23Speaker 3: was doing the film and I was you know, I
- 7:25Speaker 3: was locked in.
- 7:26Speaker 4: So how was how was he leading up like yesterday
- 7:29Speaker 4: the day before? He worked with a lot of nerves.
- 7:32Speaker 4: I remember being nervous in high school, especially like your
- 7:34Speaker 4: first time playing on varsity. You're like, wow, there has
- 7:38Speaker 4: never been more people in the world watching a football
- 7:40Speaker 4: game ever in the history. That's what I thought when
- 7:43Speaker 4: I was in high school.
- 7:44Speaker 3: I don't know, like it didn't show it, but like
- 7:46Speaker 3: you know, maybe, like so like when when your son
- 7:48Speaker 3: Huck gets up to that age, I wonder what their
- 7:51Speaker 3: nerves are because you got to think about this, like
- 7:55Speaker 3: they've been inside Tiger Stadium, sure, and they've gone to
- 7:58Speaker 3: professional games as well.
- 8:00Speaker 2: Well.
- 8:00Speaker 3: Now they weren't on the field, but I didn't really
- 8:03Speaker 3: have a ton of experience right like high school, even
- 8:08Speaker 3: like mid year, you know.
- 8:10Speaker 4: I mean I'd gotten to like Baylor games. Yeah, that
- 8:12Speaker 4: that didn't really count.
- 8:15Speaker 2: The old Floyd Ksey we talked about Oklahoma's game against them. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 8:20Speaker 3: So but even in high school, like we played West
- 8:23Speaker 3: mon Roe one time, we had like fifty thousand people
- 8:25Speaker 3: in there. Fifty thousand, fifty thousand people in West Monroe. No, No,
- 8:31Speaker 3: we played against West Monroe in the Super Viome.
- 8:34Speaker 2: Huh.
- 8:35Speaker 3: We played against a lot and we played against an
- 8:37Speaker 3: independent stadium in tree Ford where they played the Independence Bowl,
- 8:40Speaker 3: and it was like thirty five thousand.
- 8:44Speaker 2: That's a lot, man.
- 8:45Speaker 4: So I usually bragged the people about like our attendance
- 8:49Speaker 4: in high school in our schools, but that was nowhere
- 8:52Speaker 4: near thirty or fifty thousand. And maybe we had twenty
- 8:56Speaker 4: thousand in Texas Stadium like playoffs or something. But you get,
- 8:58Speaker 4: you get get like an alga like a combination of
- 9:02Speaker 4: six different teams fan base there. Because there was neither
- 9:04Speaker 4: three or four games throughout the day. That's pretty impressive,
- 9:08Speaker 4: Pretty impressive, sir.
- 9:10Speaker 2: So you do did good? He did good.
- 9:13Speaker 3: Yeah, A couple of tackles, you know, that's sending to
- 9:15Speaker 3: split the double.
- 9:17Speaker 2: Hello, take his knees out, that's it, and say that
- 9:20Speaker 2: that's a great country accent. I hold you. Yeah, you
- 9:23Speaker 2: have to.
- 9:24Speaker 3: It's the only way to do it. But I would
- 9:29Speaker 3: I would love to hear some of the scores. If
- 9:31Speaker 3: there was other teams in action across the state, let
- 9:35Speaker 3: us know, let us know how it went.
- 9:37Speaker 2: Who was victorious.
- 9:38Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, no we can't because I was having the internet.
- 9:43Speaker 4: But yeah, I just I just hot spotted to my
- 9:46Speaker 4: cell phone. But we're working on it, working through some
- 9:48Speaker 4: technical difficulties. But we are excited again to be here

- 14:13Speaker 3: I did see something kind of newsy come across the
- 14:16Speaker 3: wire yesterday and want to get your thoughts on it.
- 14:19Speaker 3: There's some real momentum into only having one transfer portal,
- 14:25Speaker 3: and that portal would be a ten day window starting
- 14:27Speaker 3: in kind of at the beginning portion of January, so
- 14:31Speaker 3: they'd move it back. The December window would move back,
- 14:34Speaker 3: and they would get rid of these spring transfer portal windows,
- 14:37Speaker 3: so no longer would coaches lose their players after spring practice.
- 14:43Speaker 2: Sure, I mean I actually I like it. I mean
- 14:47Speaker 2: I well, speed Daton.
- 14:49Speaker 3: I know that LSU has benefited in the past from
- 14:52Speaker 3: getting somebody after spring. Everybody's benefited in you know, one
- 14:55Speaker 3: player here, one player there.
- 14:57Speaker 2: It's just it's so tough, man.
- 14:58Speaker 3: It's tough for the coaches that are trying to know
- 15:01Speaker 3: their rosters, tough for the teammates.
- 15:03Speaker 2: So this is this rule has passed.
- 15:06Speaker 3: No well talked about it's got Yeah, it's got until
- 15:10Speaker 3: I believe October. Right, so it's been proposed and it's
- 15:15Speaker 3: got until October if you want to in effect for
- 15:18Speaker 3: this year.
- 15:20Speaker 2: Hmmm.
- 15:22Speaker 4: I'm trying to think of like, you know, I could
- 15:26Speaker 4: there was a time not too long ago out of
- 15:29Speaker 4: old Man on the lawn thisk and been like, yeah,
- 15:30Speaker 4: for sure the less transfers or you know, time for
- 15:33Speaker 4: the transfer portal. But it's so prevalent in college for
- 15:37Speaker 4: it's such an important factor in building rosters now. And
- 15:40Speaker 4: of course I don't env coaches. They have such a
- 15:43Speaker 4: hard job in college football right now managing rosters because
- 15:47Speaker 4: it's still the more rules that get put on it.
- 15:49Speaker 4: There's still you know, there's still not it's still not
- 15:53Speaker 4: super clear. We're still learning as we go in this
- 15:56Speaker 4: new age, new era of college football. But LSU has
- 16:01Speaker 4: benefited so much, like it's hard to talk talk bad
- 16:05Speaker 4: about it at all. So I get what they're trying
- 16:08Speaker 4: to do because it's easier to manage that roster you
- 16:10Speaker 4: can't go after spring, but it does limit the opportunities
- 16:14Speaker 4: that the kid is going to have, and for that matter,
- 16:18Speaker 4: a school is going to have if something, if a
- 16:20Speaker 4: need does arise, Like what if there's you know, is
- 16:24Speaker 4: more than normal injuries that happen in spring and they
- 16:26Speaker 4: need to kind of fill in some spots. I don't know,
- 16:30Speaker 4: it's I'd like to kind of hear the pros and
- 16:32Speaker 4: cons of arguments for for and against either way. But
- 16:39Speaker 4: I guess the old school spirit of me says, yeah,
- 16:40Speaker 4: that's a good thing. But just because everybody is so
- 16:45Speaker 4: reliant on right now, both the both the players and
- 16:48Speaker 4: the coaches and the programs, I don't know how I
- 16:51Speaker 4: feel about it, really. I don't like to put limitations
- 16:55Speaker 4: on something that that is that is so important right
- 16:58Speaker 4: now in college football.
- 16:59Speaker 3: So, oh, last year you had the December window be
- 17:03Speaker 3: open from December the ninth until the twenty eighth, and
- 17:05Speaker 3: the spring portal period was April sixteenth through the twenty fifth. Now,
- 17:10Speaker 3: the FBS coaches voted and it was a unanimous vote
- 17:14Speaker 3: in July or for this July portal proposal earlier this year.
- 17:20Speaker 3: So the coaches absolutely want it, and they said it
- 17:23Speaker 3: gives you more time to focus on finishing the season
- 17:25Speaker 3: while preserving the opportunity for players to transfer to the
- 17:28Speaker 3: new school for the spring semester. So this has been
- 17:32Speaker 3: something that has been talked about for a long time.
- 17:36Speaker 3: It's not I mean spring meetings, every SEC coach talked
- 17:40Speaker 3: about it on the record, off the record. So this
- 17:42Speaker 3: proposed loan transfer window would be ten day period that
- 17:45Speaker 3: opens up again on January the second, one day after
- 17:49Speaker 3: the college football playoff quarterfinals are completed, and the Division
- 17:53Speaker 3: One Administrative Committee must approve this change before it can
- 17:58Speaker 3: take effect.
- 17:59Speaker 2: This year, vote again is October the first. All right, well, I.
- 18:08Speaker 3: Think it's really just so you don't have a Nico
- 18:11Speaker 3: emai Aliava situation where you're starting quarterback after spring practice,
- 18:18Speaker 3: decides to go somewhere else and then you're kind of scrambling.
- 18:20Speaker 3: Now you end up making a trade. You know, we
- 18:24Speaker 3: found out the player Joey Are But I think that's
- 18:28Speaker 3: one of the things that coaches are trying to stay
- 18:31Speaker 3: away from.
- 18:31Speaker 2: I get, and I get that completely.
- 18:33Speaker 4: Due I guess on the flip side, if you're looking
- 18:37Speaker 4: for an argument a devil's advocate here, like, there's probably
- 18:40Speaker 4: also situations where it's helped both the player and the program,
- 18:45Speaker 4: both sides of the program.
- 18:47Speaker 2: So I get it. Though you want your roster.
- 18:50Speaker 4: I think the especially the coaches, the way that they
- 18:52Speaker 4: were raised up as coaches. It's it wasn't anywhere close
- 18:56Speaker 4: to the roster chaos that they have right now. Anytime
- 19:00Speaker 4: you can put a little bit more rules on it,
- 19:01Speaker 4: it's probably a good thing just from a just from
- 19:06Speaker 4: a mindset of the coaches, like.
- 19:09Speaker 2: All right, this is what we got.
- 19:11Speaker 4: Let's figure out how to make this team the best
- 19:13Speaker 4: we can. And there's no other options for people to leave.
- 19:15Speaker 4: So whether it's whether it's a good thing or a
- 19:17Speaker 4: bad thing, if you're in a situation where somebody gets
- 19:20Speaker 4: hurt at the end of spring and you don't have it,
- 19:23Speaker 4: like you don't have an answer behind it, then you're
- 19:25Speaker 4: in a rough.
- 19:26Speaker 2: Rough spot. Then you're in a bad spot.
- 19:27Speaker 4: Right, but at least you didn't know, so fear of
- 19:31Speaker 4: the unknown, that's what gets what makes it makes it
- 19:34Speaker 4: difficult to coach in college football right.
- 19:36Speaker 2: Now, I will say.
- 19:38Speaker 4: I just don't like it during the season, like why
- 19:41Speaker 4: why should people transfer before like the season's over?
- 19:43Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm with you.
- 19:44Speaker 3: There the one thing that it's going to do if
- 19:47Speaker 3: it doesn't indeed pass, there was some guys and look
- 19:52Speaker 3: at I mean, you can love it, you can hate it.
- 19:55Speaker 2: I wouldn't probably have done it, just just not kind
- 19:58Speaker 2: of the way I'll build.
- 19:59Speaker 3: But there was some guys that would go through spring
- 20:03Speaker 3: practice would kind of hear the rumors and the chirps
- 20:07Speaker 3: of what some of these top ten programs needed.
- 20:10Speaker 2: Yeah, defensive tackle. Oh, I'm a defensive tackle.
- 20:13Speaker 3: That's me. I made a couple of plays last year.
- 20:17Speaker 3: I had three sacks.
- 20:18Speaker 4: My bank accounts not quite as heavy as it could be.
- 20:21Speaker 3: Yeah, and you had look and.
- 20:24Speaker 2: What did they do?
- 20:25Speaker 3: They got overpaid and they knew they were going to
- 20:26Speaker 3: get overpaid, and they did. Like Bear Alexander Right, the
- 20:30Speaker 3: guy that went from Georgia to usc usc to Oregon.
- 20:34Speaker 3: Like Bear knew what he was doing. Bear had made
- 20:37Speaker 3: many plays in costs football. He got a lot of money.
- 20:40Speaker 3: And you had a lot of players they would kind
- 20:42Speaker 3: of wait to see what the in vogue position was,
- 20:45Speaker 3: and you'd see a slew of that position. You know,
- 20:48Speaker 3: mid tier players get paid like primetime players.
- 20:52Speaker 2: That's just called supplying demand. Let's our business.
- 20:56Speaker 3: I know I'm saying it wouldn't have been my process,
- 20:59Speaker 3: but that's that's what was going on.
- 21:01Speaker 4: I know, I get, but I guess you can't judge.
- 21:05Speaker 4: I guess you can't judge the kids and that, like
- 21:07Speaker 4: there's a certain point where it's like, man, it's uh,
- 21:10Speaker 4: you know, stick with like I'm so glad this guy's loyal.
- 21:13Speaker 4: Like there's not that many nuts meyers walking around Like,
- 21:15Speaker 4: but I don't think anybody this day and age can
- 21:18Speaker 4: sit and judge a kid for testing the market if
- 21:23Speaker 4: there is a position to need and they get fill
- 21:25Speaker 4: in need. That's they're doing in professional football all the time.
- 21:29Speaker 4: They test the market. They go see how much money
- 21:31Speaker 4: they can make to whether it's here, whether it's.
- 21:32Speaker 3: Yeah, the difference is it's every year for some of
- 21:35Speaker 3: these players.
- 21:36Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the problem. Like NFL, you have an that's.
- 21:39Speaker 4: Where I'm going to stick the flag in the grounds.
- 21:42Speaker 4: So I'm gonna draw a line in the sand and
- 21:43Speaker 4: I'm going to be the oldest man possible on that
- 21:46Speaker 4: lawn yelling at the fast cars because like, slow down
- 21:51Speaker 4: this neighborhood as a neighborhood, Are you kidding me?
- 21:54Speaker 2: There's a speed bump there.
- 21:56Speaker 3: That little turtle didn't mean anything to you that said
- 21:58Speaker 3: slow down.
- 22:02Speaker 4: Turtles don't walk on two legs. No, they're not n
- 22:05Speaker 4: ninjas either. I don't even know what we're talking about. Oh, yes,
- 22:12Speaker 4: the amount of times that they can transfer is the issue.
- 22:16Speaker 2: To me get a walk card. Here's my walk card,
- 22:20Speaker 2: turning it in. I mean, what what college is t J.
- 22:23Speaker 4: Finlely on right now? Six six and six years? Yeah,
- 22:28Speaker 4: like how long can we ride this? The COVID, Y're
- 22:30Speaker 4: I don't know. I'm not saying that. He is just saying, like,
- 22:33Speaker 4: I feel like people are still here, like getting eligibility
- 22:35Speaker 4: from COVID.
- 22:36Speaker 2: Yeah that was wild. Six schools and six years, that's
- 22:38Speaker 2: a half decade ago. Yeah, that is not That is
- 22:40Speaker 2: not really that's why this was for.
- 22:43Speaker 4: That's not the spirit of what all this is. Like,
- 22:46Speaker 4: I still like the old rule of like you know,
- 22:49Speaker 4: you get okay, not the old rule of like you
- 22:51Speaker 4: gotta transfer, you got to sit out, but like, yeah,
- 22:53Speaker 4: you get one transfer, one transfer. If you want to
- 22:55Speaker 4: transfer again, fine, there's a penalty for that. Yeah, if
- 22:58Speaker 4: you want to go and transfer to that and that
- 23:00Speaker 4: team is finally still paying you for having to set
- 23:02Speaker 4: out or you know, maybe it's not a whole season,
- 23:03Speaker 4: maybe it's a couple of games. I don't know what
- 23:05Speaker 4: it is, but like could be something the rule. There's
- 23:08Speaker 4: got to be some sort of rule, like even in
- 23:10Speaker 4: professional football. You can't just move every year. You can't.
- 23:12Speaker 4: No one's going to be signing one year contracts with
- 23:14Speaker 4: six different teams.
- 23:16Speaker 2: You just to me, that is like what if you're signing.
- 23:20Speaker 3: If you're signing, I mean for six teams and six years,
- 23:23Speaker 3: you're called a journeyman.
- 23:25Speaker 2: You call a journeyman, you're called a hanging on by
- 23:27Speaker 2: a three.
- 23:27Speaker 4: You're not making a quarter cent over minimum.
- 23:32Speaker 3: They might they might try to negotiate something underneath minute.
- 23:36Speaker 4: Yeah, like Kawhi Leonard got like paid from another company.
- 23:39Speaker 4: They might have like a separate LLC shell company that
- 23:43Speaker 4: takes money back out of your checking it out and
- 23:46Speaker 4: puts it back into the end of the company. All Right,
- 23:50Speaker 4: we were smart enough talking about the Kawhi Leonard situation

- 27:48Speaker 3: All right, l USU, welcome's Louisiana Tech to town. It's
- 27:52Speaker 3: going to be a six thirty pm kick tomorrow over
- 27:56Speaker 3: on ESPN plus. Tell Us you is a thirty seven
- 28:01Speaker 3: and a half point favorite in this game. Last week,
- 28:04Speaker 3: Louisiana Tech beat Southeastern twenty four to nothing.
- 28:08Speaker 2: It was three to nothing.
- 28:09Speaker 3: At halftime, and Louisiana Tech pulls away there.
- 28:11Speaker 2: In the second half.
- 28:13Speaker 3: Now, you know, Louisiantech's not the program that that it's
- 28:18Speaker 3: been in the past. Certainly, they've had teams in the
- 28:20Speaker 3: past that have been really competitive, going to you know,
- 28:23Speaker 3: some pretty decent Bowl games, and they're.
- 28:25Speaker 2: Trying to get back to that point.
- 28:27Speaker 3: They're not there yet, and so LSU is going to
- 28:30Speaker 3: have a lot of success in this game. But if
- 28:34Speaker 3: I ask you and Hunt, I hope you're listening here
- 28:36Speaker 3: for the station survey. If I asked you this, Flann,
- 28:41Speaker 3: what do you want to see from LSU? Knowing that
- 28:44Speaker 3: they are, you know, a five touchdown plus favorite in
- 28:48Speaker 3: this game.
- 28:51Speaker 4: Yeah, you just really, when you go into a game
- 28:54Speaker 4: like this, it's a there's going to be some we've
- 28:58Speaker 4: kind of poopooed on like that, the juice, the energy
- 29:02Speaker 4: that you kind of.
- 29:03Speaker 2: Have to manufacture energy.
- 29:04Speaker 4: But I guess what we really haven't given enough credit
- 29:06Speaker 4: to is the first time being in Tiger Stadium this year,
- 29:10Speaker 4: So there is going to be some juice just pulled
- 29:13Speaker 4: straight from that. But outside of that, there is it's
- 29:18Speaker 4: hard to get the emotions up. It's hard to get
- 29:19Speaker 4: the intensity, the subconscious intensity that it is for because
- 29:24Speaker 4: you're coming off an emotional high.
- 29:27Speaker 2: So a lot of that has to be manufactured.
- 29:30Speaker 4: Like I said yesterday, like coaches talk, coaches speak, the
- 29:34Speaker 4: coaches like the stereotypical things they say. It is kind
- 29:37Speaker 4: of at a premium this week. But what I like
- 29:40Speaker 4: about this team is these are kind of like these
- 29:42Speaker 4: are these are kind of leadership games right here. Yeah,
- 29:45Speaker 4: so your leaders you can't accept anything but anybody's best.
- 29:49Speaker 2: And I know it's going to be hard. It is
- 29:51Speaker 2: going to be hard a lot.
- 29:52Speaker 4: But this is the first time in Tiger Stateum, you're
- 29:54Speaker 4: playing an in state school.
- 29:56Speaker 3: First time you've been one to zero in Tiger Stadium
- 29:58Speaker 3: since minute.
- 30:00Speaker 2: Let's get a little juice on that.
- 30:01Speaker 4: But it's what I want to see from them is
- 30:05Speaker 4: just playing execution. It is going out there executing your assignment,
- 30:11Speaker 4: knowing what to do, being confident, and just I want
- 30:14Speaker 4: the game to look clean. I don't want preset penalties,
- 30:17Speaker 4: I don't want preset misalignments. I don't want twelve men
- 30:19Speaker 4: in the huddle. I don't want twelve men on the field.
- 30:21Speaker 4: I don't want all the silly things that make a
- 30:25Speaker 4: game just look sloppy and slow down a game. I
- 30:27Speaker 4: want to play on time. I want to play on schedule.
- 30:29Speaker 4: I want to be I don't want to have any
- 30:31Speaker 4: holding calls on first down and be first and twenty.
- 30:34Speaker 4: I want to be on schedule as the offense, and
- 30:36Speaker 4: I want to get my starters out of there midway
- 30:38Speaker 4: through the third quarter.
- 30:39Speaker 2: I want to be that.
- 30:40Speaker 4: Type of game where it's like, Okay, Garrett, great game.
- 30:43Speaker 4: You went twenty four of twenty eight. Yeah, for three
- 30:47Speaker 4: tuds and two hundred and forty yards.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Whatever it is.
- 30:49Speaker 4: You know, it doesn't have to be these crazy, crazy stats.
- 30:52Speaker 4: I don't care what. I don't care about beating a
- 30:54Speaker 4: team sixty to nothing. Now, it doesn't matter. That doesn't
- 30:57Speaker 4: matter to me. The fluff stats, the fluff score. Yeah,
- 31:00Speaker 4: it makes you, It makes fans feel good and gives
- 31:02Speaker 4: you the warm and fuzzies a little bit. But I
- 31:04Speaker 4: just want execution on the defensive side of the ball. Yes,
- 31:08Speaker 4: that is where it's hard to manufacture that energy and
- 31:12Speaker 4: that intensity. But play gap sound, play your play your
- 31:15Speaker 4: assignment correctly. Be part of that one of eleventh one
- 31:20Speaker 4: eleventh right, whatever that is, be that one eleventh right. Uh,
- 31:26Speaker 4: don't execute your job. Do your job. Do the assignment
- 31:29Speaker 4: you're supposed. Don't try to do anything outside of the
- 31:32Speaker 4: ordinary because you think you're better than a team or no,
- 31:35Speaker 4: you're better and you're trying to get an.
- 31:36Speaker 2: Extra sack or get an extra tackle. Do your assignment.
- 31:39Speaker 4: I just want to see clean I want low ims
- 31:42Speaker 4: missus simons.
- 31:43Speaker 3: So, I mean, I'm pretty similar to that, Like I
- 31:45Speaker 3: don't really care what the score is. Like, you know,
- 31:48Speaker 3: we're gonna we'll give a score prediction on the website
- 31:52Speaker 3: Luisia's sports dot go check out all the work that
- 31:54Speaker 3: they're doing great things for not only the LSU Tigers,
- 31:57Speaker 3: put the New Orleans Saints. I'll probably say something forty
- 32:01Speaker 3: five to ten. Like it'll probably be something I throw
- 32:03Speaker 3: out there. Okay, I don't care about that though. I
- 32:07Speaker 3: actually I want to see what the schematics are going
- 32:12Speaker 3: to look like for the defense, like they were pressure, pressure,
- 32:17Speaker 3: pressure last week. Now is that who they're going to be?
- 32:21Speaker 3: And I'm not saying about because of the quality of
- 32:22Speaker 3: the opponent. I'm talking about just the style of the offense.
- 32:25Speaker 3: Is that who they're going to be against that like
- 32:27Speaker 3: any offense? Or is that who they're going to because
- 32:29Speaker 3: they knew they could get k club Nick flustered. Are
- 32:32Speaker 3: they going to do that multiple weeks? Like is that
- 32:34Speaker 3: gonna be every week? Is it gonna be this week?
- 32:37Speaker 3: You know this quarterback shows that he can get off
- 32:39Speaker 3: his mark, or if we bring that much pressure?
- 32:41Speaker 2: Now they're going to be aggressive. They're gonna bring pressure.
- 32:43Speaker 3: But are they gonna bring it sixty something percent of
- 32:45Speaker 3: the time like they did against Clemson? Like that's going
- 32:48Speaker 3: take That's the most intriguing thing to me. Are they
- 32:51Speaker 3: gonna sit back yep? Are they gonna kind of you know,
- 32:53Speaker 3: figure it out a little bit?
- 32:55Speaker 2: Ye?
- 32:55Speaker 3: Are they going to say hey, no, no, no, no, this
- 32:57Speaker 3: is who we are right and we're gonna do it
- 32:59Speaker 3: to DJ lack Way in two weeks as well? I
- 33:02Speaker 3: want to see what the scheme of the defense looks like,
- 33:04Speaker 3: because if they bring pressure sixty percent of the time
- 33:06Speaker 3: again in this louisiantege game, that's who they are.
- 33:10Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 33:10Speaker 4: I think I think foundationally Blake Baker and that defense
- 33:14Speaker 4: wants to be aggressive, and I learned that from Blake
- 33:17Speaker 4: Baker and Spring flag football coaching seven to ten that
- 33:22Speaker 4: son of a gun was bringing pressure all over the place.
- 33:25Speaker 2: That's just who he is, who he wants to be,
- 33:27Speaker 2: so we saw it. But I do think that he's
- 33:29Speaker 2: a uh.
- 33:30Speaker 4: He understands the game so well and understands defenses so well,
- 33:34Speaker 4: knows how to game plan so well that it will
- 33:36Speaker 4: change a little bit game back game. But I think
- 33:39Speaker 4: at the core of everything, he wants to create chaos.
- 33:42Speaker 2: He wants to bring pressure.
- 33:44Speaker 4: He wants to make them have to make the exceptional
- 33:48Speaker 4: play and play a little bit faster than they want
- 33:50Speaker 4: to play. You make the offense a little bit uncomfortable,
- 33:53Speaker 4: then you have a You have a chance to do
- 33:55Speaker 4: some really special things we did last week. Now, I
- 33:57Speaker 4: also believe that he's going to watch the quarterbacks and
- 33:59Speaker 4: see how they process information. You might blitz got one
- 34:02Speaker 4: guy a lot more than you blitz another guy, or
- 34:04Speaker 4: bring different types of pressures against them because one quarterback
- 34:08Speaker 4: might be really bad at deciphering pressures from his blindside.
- 34:12Speaker 2: One person might be.
- 34:13Speaker 4: A little bit more because he because one guy might
- 34:17Speaker 4: be a right hand or might pride. You might pressure
- 34:20Speaker 4: from the right side a little bit more because the
- 34:22Speaker 4: ninety eight percent of his scrambles he wants to go
- 34:25Speaker 4: scramble to the right instead of you know, flipping his
- 34:27Speaker 4: hips and rotating and scrambling to the left. He's uncomfortable
- 34:30Speaker 4: doing that. Like, there's all sorts of things that go
- 34:33Speaker 4: into I believe they pressured and brought so much chaos, even.
- 34:36Speaker 2: Though they did leave some open people.
- 34:40Speaker 4: They were exposed a little bit, but that's part of
- 34:43Speaker 4: being blitzed and pressure. I believe that they watched the
- 34:46Speaker 4: film from last year with k Clubney and they saw
- 34:48Speaker 4: weakness of his which is deciphering different types of defense,
- 34:52Speaker 4: reading the inside middle portion of the field, and he
- 34:57Speaker 4: has a weakness of having to get past his first
- 34:59Speaker 4: and I can read and staying on a platform and
- 35:02Speaker 4: having a good base at quarterback and reading and playing
- 35:05Speaker 4: that type of offense. I believe that that had a
- 35:08Speaker 4: lot to do with it. And I also believe you
- 35:10Speaker 4: go back and watch the eleven or eleven Harold Perkins
- 35:14Speaker 4: famously playing the star position Star is out there and
- 35:18Speaker 4: he has past responsibilities. He's got either curl flat or
- 35:22Speaker 4: monument or or he's got these responsibilities. And okay, oh
- 35:28Speaker 4: Willy nilly when we can't show the people are talking
- 35:31Speaker 4: about he has past responsibilities in his zone coverage. Okay,
- 35:37Speaker 4: you could tell that he was given the green light
- 35:40Speaker 4: by his coaches to abort that past responsibility and attack
- 35:45Speaker 4: the quarterback multiple times. Now, he created a lot of
- 35:49Speaker 4: pressure when it was supposed to be when it was
- 35:52Speaker 4: actually pressures and he's either spying or.
- 35:55Speaker 2: A late ad to a blitz or a pressure.
- 35:58Speaker 4: But he did it a lot when he was supposed
- 36:01Speaker 4: to be in the curl flat. Yeah, and you could
- 36:04Speaker 4: tell that he was given that green light. All right,
- 36:05Speaker 4: as soon as he goes, I don't care what you,
- 36:07Speaker 4: I don't care who's there. And I feel like that
- 36:09Speaker 4: comes a lot because kid struggles reading defenses.
- 36:13Speaker 2: H and and he did, and they also did.
- 36:16Speaker 3: I probably didn't want to get k Kleubnick on the
- 36:18Speaker 3: edge because you're turning your back because you're trying to
- 36:21Speaker 3: get to your coverage responsibility, and all of a sudden
- 36:24Speaker 3: you look up and he hit you for a twenty.
- 36:25Speaker 4: Seven yard game. Certainly he didn't want to be with
- 36:28Speaker 4: his legs. With his legs, he can beat you with
- 36:30Speaker 4: his arm if he can find it and decide for it.
- 36:32Speaker 2: But now With that being.
- 36:35Speaker 4: Said, there was opportunities for kid to make plays. Yeah,
- 36:38Speaker 4: that happened certainly.
- 36:40Speaker 3: Part of Yeah, it's part of the game plans to
- 36:42Speaker 3: be so chaotic, yep, that you get them off their game, but.
- 36:45Speaker 4: You make him play fast, you bring chaos to him
- 36:48Speaker 4: and they just believe that he couldn't keep up with it,
- 36:51Speaker 4: so and it was right and they trusted it.
- 36:53Speaker 3: Yeah, there's some quarterbacks at LSU my play that have
- 36:56Speaker 3: you know, a different football IQ. It's not to say
- 36:58Speaker 3: that Caid's got a bad one, but like that was
- 37:02Speaker 3: something that showed up in film that if you kind
- 37:04Speaker 3: of made a chaotic like that for him, he didn't
- 37:07Speaker 3: get to his second and third read like he gets
- 37:09Speaker 3: to the first one. Then he tried to make a
- 37:10Speaker 3: play and a lot of times he was so athletic
- 37:11Speaker 3: he could make them play. But there's just doesn't really
- 37:14Speaker 3: had to right, there's something, there's something. You've got a
- 37:17Speaker 3: player that are going to be different. I mean you
- 37:19Speaker 3: got you know, Diego Pavia, you got John Mattier, you
- 37:22Speaker 3: got DJ Lagway, you got Leonora Sellers all still coming
- 37:25Speaker 3: up on this schedule for LSU.
- 37:28Speaker 4: I would probably look to for KDE Club, Nick I'm
- 37:31Speaker 4: gonna probably be taking the next couple of weeks the
- 37:33Speaker 4: over on all his stats, on his on his pass
- 37:35Speaker 4: yard stats, on his rushing stats, because I believe that
- 37:39Speaker 4: other teams are going to see what LSU did and
- 37:41Speaker 4: they're going to try to do it. Yeah, and they
- 37:43Speaker 4: just won't be the Jimmy's and Jo's. So what they're
- 37:45Speaker 4: gonna do is like, if that's not part of your
- 37:47Speaker 4: DNA of doing all those chaotic blitzes and bringing it
- 37:49Speaker 4: from both directions, different people, different levels of the field.
- 37:53Speaker 4: But you watch something on film, you're like, oh, we
- 37:55Speaker 4: can install that this week. Yeah, But if you don't
- 37:58Speaker 4: and it's not part of your found like you leave
- 38:01Speaker 4: so many things wide open if like you if your
- 38:04Speaker 4: safeties don't know how to fill in the gaps where
- 38:06Speaker 4: your linebackers leave, if they're just not real comfortable with
- 38:08Speaker 4: that's kind of like offensive line passing off pass protection,
- 38:11Speaker 4: like you have to like when you're a blitzing an
- 38:14Speaker 4: aggressive it's like ry Well Ryan Clark would make up.
- 38:16Speaker 2: For Ti pal Malu right, like they just knew like.
- 38:19Speaker 4: He created chaos, but you had to have some guy
- 38:21Speaker 4: that made up for that chaotic behavior. So I would
- 38:25Speaker 4: look for all the overs on the prop stat line
- 38:29Speaker 4: for k club and a passing yards, rushing yards touchdowns
- 38:32Speaker 4: there because I think he's probably going to go off
- 38:34Speaker 4: because people are just going to leave people wide open yea.
- 38:37Speaker 3: And teams are going to try to replicate what LSU did.
- 38:40Speaker 2: But good luck, Like, yeah, you don't.
- 38:42Speaker 3: You don't have the personnel that LSU had, Like you,
- 38:45Speaker 3: you don't have Harold Perkins who on the fourth down
- 38:48Speaker 3: he's on the left side of your screen. You blink
- 38:50Speaker 3: and he's in the quarterback's face on the right.
- 38:52Speaker 2: Hash just shot out of it. Can man, don't It
- 38:56Speaker 2: wasn't even really has It's kind of the numbers. What
- 38:58Speaker 2: a doll? Yeah, you like, good luck, good luck trying
- 39:01Speaker 2: to replicate that.
- 39:02Speaker 3: And you can do that if, like Matt said, if
- 39:04Speaker 3: you have players that understand, hey, it's not gonna be me.
- 39:07Speaker 3: It's not gonna be me that makes the play I'm
- 39:09Speaker 3: not gonna get my jersey number called over the PA,
- 39:12Speaker 3: but I'm going to make up for our playmaker that's
- 39:15Speaker 3: going to do the wild and crazy things, the organized
- 39:18Speaker 3: chaotic things that he's.
- 39:20Speaker 2: Going to go do.
- 39:20Speaker 3: And it felt like Elish, you did a really nice job.
- 39:22Speaker 3: Of doing that in the game last week against Clemson.
- 39:25Speaker 3: So look, we'll kind of give you some of the
- 39:28Speaker 3: final stats for louisianatack and kind of break down one

- 45:15Speaker 4: little bit longer. It's it's just in my brain.
- 45:17Speaker 3: I guess typically, I guess because Tat would come back
- 45:20Speaker 3: and it's one hundred and thirty degrees here in Baton
- 45:23Speaker 3: Rouge with one hundred percent of humidity here in Baton Rouge.
- 45:26Speaker 4: It is hot as hell. Yep, that'd be him Hack
- 45:28Speaker 4: seven fifty four. Shoot, not bad, my bad. Carpoolers tell me, yeah, mom,

- 45:39Speaker 2: ain't on me. I didn't say it. I mean yeah, sorry,
- 45:46Speaker 2: all right, all right.
- 45:47Speaker 3: So LSU Louisiantack, LSU big favorite, Louisiana TACK, you know,
- 45:52Speaker 3: struggled in a game last.
- 45:53Speaker 2: Week against Southeastern.
- 45:55Speaker 3: Southeastern had more first down Southeastern was nine of eighteen
- 45:58Speaker 3: on third downs and so very efficient there. They have
- 46:01Speaker 3: more total yards than Louisiana TACH. They had more passing
- 46:05Speaker 3: yards than Louisiana Tech.
- 46:07Speaker 2: Uh.
- 46:07Speaker 3: You know, they just turned the football over. I think
- 46:09Speaker 3: they had three turnovers. Louisiana TACH didn't have any. That
- 46:12Speaker 3: was a story of the game. L's she's gonna have
- 46:14Speaker 3: every opportunity to go out there and be successful, looking
- 46:17Speaker 3: forward to seeing what that defensive game plan is, looking
- 46:19Speaker 3: forward to seeing what the offense does, as far as
- 46:22Speaker 3: maybe some.
- 46:22Speaker 2: Of the rotations at running back and receiver.
- 46:24Speaker 3: Probably the storyline for me as you get ready to
- 46:27Speaker 3: welcome in the Bulldogs of Louisiana Tech into Tiger Stadium.
- 46:31Speaker 2: All Right, we'll take a break, but don't you worry.
- 46:33Speaker 2: Our two coming right back your way here on O
