- 1:52Speaker 4: Gator Hater week. We hate them with a passion. We
- 1:57Speaker 4: don't like them. They stink, and we hope that every
- 2:02Speaker 4: single year we just beat them down. We hope that
- 2:06Speaker 4: all the recruits to commit from them after the game.
- 2:10Speaker 4: We hope that their program goes to shambles. Yeah, actually no,
- 2:14Speaker 4: we don't hope that. We want them to always have
- 2:16Speaker 4: a decent program. So this game is always big.
- 2:18Speaker 3: Well, I mean, you know, actually this game in this series,
- 2:21Speaker 3: it doesn't it hasn't mattered in the past like good
- 2:24Speaker 3: or bad, like there's always still something weird. Remember LSU
- 2:27Speaker 3: was a twenty one point dog on the road when
- 2:30Speaker 3: they beat Florida with Kaid your kidding the field goal
- 2:33Speaker 3: and the fog that we didn't really know if that
- 2:35Speaker 3: thing went in. I just watched one. Yeah, there were
- 2:38Speaker 3: three touchdown dog that day. I had no idea when
- 2:40Speaker 3: you had the cleat thrown for you know, the cleat
- 2:42Speaker 3: went twenty yards, the penalty was fifteen yards. But I
- 2:45Speaker 3: remember not being able to see the field goal go in.
- 2:48Speaker 3: I just I watched Gordy and I watched Gordy's reaction
- 2:52Speaker 3: because he was on the mic obviously on the sideline,
- 2:54Speaker 3: and I was like, okay, if he celebrates, that means
- 2:56Speaker 3: LSU made the kick because I couldn't see it go in.
- 3:02Speaker 4: Yep, I know, well the shoe the shoe throw, Hey
- 3:08Speaker 4: did did that guy that?
- 3:10Speaker 2: Who's the guy last week for them? That spit? I'll
- 3:15Speaker 2: just see what a player was. But yeah, we had
- 3:17Speaker 2: another spitting.
- 3:18Speaker 4: Did he get like is there any There's gotta be
- 3:21Speaker 4: some sort of retribution, right, I don't know, chat.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Let's know he gets suspended.
- 3:24Speaker 3: Yeah, because I just remember like comparing it to the
- 3:26Speaker 3: Jalen Carter situation with the egos, I'm like, what are
- 3:28Speaker 3: we doing out here?
- 3:29Speaker 2: Spitting? Yeah, what are we doing?
- 3:31Speaker 4: Like his Florida guys when that spills a lot nastier too, Yeah,
- 3:34Speaker 4: in the face, it spows like spread out.
- 3:37Speaker 3: Spray, like if somebody spits on you in like everyday life,
- 3:43Speaker 3: you're fighting to like to the very end, like to
- 3:47Speaker 3: the end until you can't pick your arms up anymore.
- 3:49Speaker 3: I mean we're old, like, I don't know that we
- 3:50Speaker 3: can really do any damage, but we're.
- 3:52Speaker 2: Gonna swing until we can't pick our arms up anymore.
- 3:55Speaker 4: Elders kind of hurt too, I don't know. Spitting yeah,
- 3:58Speaker 4: I mean so like like in football field.
- 4:00Speaker 3: I guess it's like you get mad about it, but
- 4:02Speaker 3: we're not talking after the game.
- 4:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 4:05Speaker 4: The the one in the NFL, the Jaalen Carter one
- 4:08Speaker 4: that was that was more and and not to like
- 4:11Speaker 4: excuse anything from me. It was like some little friend.
- 4:14Speaker 4: It was some banter going back and forth. Certainly some hate,
- 4:17Speaker 4: but it wasn't like an emotional reaction. It was like
- 4:20Speaker 4: a h I'm gonna spit on your shirt type deal.
- 4:22Speaker 4: The Florida one was like nasty, yeah, that was. That
- 4:26Speaker 4: was the type of yeah, we got it, like the
- 4:28Speaker 4: whole team.
- 4:29Speaker 3: Like, let's but look, look, let's not act like that's
- 4:33Speaker 3: not who.
- 4:33Speaker 4: Florida is and who they've been. Yep, in my in
- 4:37Speaker 4: my mind, that's how all of them are.
- 4:38Speaker 3: Yeah right, I'm probably some great guys, even you Chris Doring.
- 4:42Speaker 3: We're throwing you into this conversation this week.
- 4:45Speaker 4: But I do want to know because like the what
- 4:49Speaker 4: did you think of the the punishment that came down
- 4:52Speaker 4: from the NFL on Jaalen Carter, Like that was pretty
- 4:55Speaker 4: shocking to me that with so many I balls on
- 5:00Speaker 4: that situation that they don't make any some sort of
- 5:03Speaker 4: example and you've got like there's.
- 5:05Speaker 2: Some fifty seven thousand Jaylen Carter, yeah, something like that.
- 5:11Speaker 4: And they they they considered the game that he get
- 5:14Speaker 4: kicked out of.
- 5:14Speaker 2: As his suspendsision because I mean he didn't play, yeah.
- 5:17Speaker 4: Before the first play, well, you know, all the all
- 5:21Speaker 4: the conspiracy theorists can certainly come out and play because
- 5:25Speaker 4: of course everyone's going to say that he's playing because
- 5:29Speaker 4: guess who they played this weekend?
- 5:30Speaker 2: The Chiefs.
- 5:31Speaker 3: The Chiefs, that's right, So yeah, because they're not they're
- 5:34Speaker 3: playing in Kansas City, right because I believe Yeah, because
- 5:38Speaker 3: Temple and Oklahoma are playing in their stadium on Saturday
- 5:41Speaker 3: Classic matchup. Look, we had tales oldest time. We had
- 5:45Speaker 3: Temple's head coach on off campus yesterday. This man is
- 5:49Speaker 3: ready to go. He's played as a head coach. Now,
- 5:53Speaker 3: he's all different levels, like he's been at else he's
- 5:56Speaker 3: been at Yes, he's been a Delaware, he's been at
- 5:58Speaker 3: Sam Houston, he's been a Vision III. This man has
- 6:01Speaker 3: coached in nine National Championship games at different levels over
- 6:06Speaker 3: a thirty year period.
- 6:08Speaker 2: Nine.
- 6:09Speaker 3: I was like, I don't look, I don't care what
- 6:10Speaker 3: level it is. You had the same level players when
- 6:12Speaker 3: you went to it. I'm like, all right, Temple A right,
- 6:15Speaker 3: two and up, I'll see you.
- 6:17Speaker 2: What's there? Who? Who they did? I don't know, but
- 6:22Speaker 2: this man had me fired up.
- 6:23Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, good for you, all right, Geometerier, you
- 6:26Speaker 3: better bring it Temple that was coming into Philly. I'm
- 6:30Speaker 3: telling you, I know, like what, I still don't get it.
- 6:33Speaker 3: I don't get it. I don't get it. How many
- 6:35Speaker 3: people do you think will be there? Hundreds, one hundred
- 6:39Speaker 3: and tens of hundreds. Now, I don't know I mean, I.
- 6:42Speaker 2: Don't know what temple.
- 6:43Speaker 3: I'm sure Oklahoma fans are like, hey, when are we
- 6:45Speaker 3: going to go to a Philly again? I got my
- 6:47Speaker 3: saying like, I don't I don't you know, I've only
- 6:48Speaker 3: been to Philly to either cover a game or play game.
- 6:51Speaker 2: I don't know what's bringing you to Philly.
- 6:53Speaker 3: And if the Eagles aren't there that weekend, I guess
- 6:55Speaker 3: you know, it would make sense if the Eagles were there,
- 6:58Speaker 3: because then it hurts played at Oklahoma. You know what
- 7:02Speaker 3: I'm saying, Like you like, hey, let's just stay over
- 7:03Speaker 3: for Sunday. Yeah, we'll reach, We'll go to the Eagles game.
- 7:07Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 7:07Speaker 4: It's like LSU, like, uh, let's see who were going
- 7:11Speaker 4: to play scheduling. I don't know, Wazoo and Cincinnati because
- 7:18Speaker 4: Burrow plays there, Yes, Rutgers, somebody, somebody weird, some weird
- 7:25Speaker 4: opponent because Joe Burrow plays in Cincinnati.
- 7:28Speaker 2: So I think we uh, you go play Maryland? Maryland?
- 7:32Speaker 2: Yeah for Jayden Daniels. Yep. Love that.
- 7:36Speaker 3: I was Look, I'm just trying to I'm not saying
- 7:38Speaker 3: they went to there for that reason.
- 7:41Speaker 2: Yep. I'm saying they could.
- 7:43Speaker 3: If you're a fan, you'd be like, Hey, we can
- 7:44Speaker 3: go to this game, and also we could have seen
- 7:48Speaker 3: maybe Jalen Hurts play. Like, I don't know. I just
- 7:51Speaker 3: talked to the coach and he fired me up yesterday
- 7:54Speaker 3: he's he said, look, and this is on air.
- 7:56Speaker 2: He goes, I.
- 7:57Speaker 3: Bet seventy five percent of their coaches are working on Temple,
- 8:00Speaker 3: he said, but twenty five percent of them they're working
- 8:02Speaker 3: on Auburn right now. They ain't worried about us. It's
- 8:04Speaker 3: like all of us are worried about Oklahoma. Kind of
- 8:07Speaker 3: called him out a little bit. What's the line?
- 8:11Speaker 4: A lot too, A little We're taking them damn right
- 8:14Speaker 4: when you said the coach said, I'm betting seventy five.
- 8:17Speaker 2: I bet seventy five.
- 8:18Speaker 4: Before you finish your sentence, I was like, oh, he
- 8:21Speaker 4: bet seventy five bucks.
- 8:24Speaker 3: No, the coach, Yeah, the coach, you know, the coach,
- 8:26Speaker 3: and I bet seventy five dollars. I'm gonna look at
- 8:28Speaker 3: the line though, because I feel like with his words,
- 8:32Speaker 3: I don't know, and I know I'm not drinking out
- 8:34Speaker 3: of a Planter Peanuts bottle here. This is actually a
- 8:39Speaker 3: back to the future coffee mug chat. So it's got
- 8:42Speaker 3: the hoverboard as the handle back to the future too,
- 8:46Speaker 3: to be exact. Part two, yeah, Part two with the hoverboard, Yeah,
- 8:52Speaker 3: because it had to be part two because the hoverboard
- 8:55Speaker 3: was not in one.
- 8:55Speaker 2: It was not.
- 8:57Speaker 3: And then three was in the West, which was a decision,
- 9:00Speaker 3: and we know what what the purpose of that was.
- 9:02Speaker 2: Yep, all right, let's find this line on this game.
- 9:06Speaker 2: What do you think it is?
- 9:08Speaker 4: Oklahoma Temple, Oklahoma's got a little juice to them right now,
- 9:12Speaker 4: I'm going to say, and it is.
- 9:16Speaker 2: Seven, No, seventeen and a half.
- 9:18Speaker 3: Twenty one and a half. Are the Owls going to
- 9:21Speaker 3: find themselves on the pontoon parlay?
- 9:24Speaker 4: They might just because of what you said about a
- 9:26Speaker 4: coach about seventy five dollars.
- 9:28Speaker 3: I'm just telling you this coach he had confidence and
- 9:32Speaker 3: they are too.
- 9:32Speaker 4: A no, I'm just you know, like a lot of energy,
- 9:35Speaker 4: like a gruff energy. Was he polished.
- 9:38Speaker 3: He was polished, He had energy, He had confidence, He
- 9:42Speaker 3: wasn't afraid to say what was on his mind. Like
- 9:45Speaker 3: he called them out saying in their building, they're not
- 9:48Speaker 3: worried about.
- 9:49Speaker 2: Us, We're worried only about them. That was probably fair.
- 9:53Speaker 2: It's always good not to get coach speak, okay, but
- 9:57Speaker 2: they also.
- 9:59Speaker 4: There's one person that is one hundred percent focus on them,
- 10:02Speaker 4: and that's John Mattier.
- 10:06Speaker 2: That's fair, That is fair.
- 10:07Speaker 4: So they don't have a John Mattier on the Temple
- 10:10Speaker 4: Owls right, Probably not.
- 10:12Speaker 2: He's on the Clumbus Sooners. Yeah, I probably don't have
- 10:14Speaker 2: one of those.
- 10:14Speaker 4: I would say that it's going to be difficult to
- 10:17Speaker 4: put them on that pontoon parlay. But whatever it is,
- 10:19Speaker 4: it's going to win because we never we've never once
- 10:22Speaker 4: as a group lost two part pontoon parlays in a row.
- 10:25Speaker 4: That's true, that's we've never done it. So we lost
- 10:28Speaker 4: this past weekend. Hey, handing there, my pick didn't hit.
- 10:31Speaker 4: Should have a lot of bets. What's a bad beat?
- 10:35Speaker 4: It was a bad beat. There was some coaches. There's
- 10:38Speaker 4: obviously some coaches putting some money on some stuff. I mean,
- 10:40Speaker 4: Lane talked about it.
- 10:41Speaker 2: Yep.
- 10:42Speaker 4: After the game, I told you one of my bold
- 10:45Speaker 4: predictions for the season, my OTB turnover chain wearing bold predictions,
- 10:51Speaker 4: that some coach is going to get investigated this year.
- 10:53Speaker 2: I don't know who it's going to be.
- 10:55Speaker 4: I would say, let's take a look at that old
- 10:56Speaker 4: miss Kentucky game this past weekend, just because I had
- 11:01Speaker 4: to pick and it lost.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Yeah you did. I don't think that matters.
- 11:06Speaker 3: Apparently the Florida player all he had to do was
- 11:09Speaker 3: apologize to the public and then also personally to the
- 11:13Speaker 3: South Florida player and no decision yet on any other
- 11:18Speaker 3: disciplinary actions.
- 11:19Speaker 2: Okay, thank you chat.
- 11:23Speaker 4: I would think that that would probably be a situation
- 11:26Speaker 4: where Napier would have to look in the mirror and
- 11:31Speaker 4: decide what kind of coach he wants to be and
- 11:33Speaker 4: discipline that got himself.
- 11:35Speaker 3: Look sure, like he realizes too, Like his job is
- 11:40Speaker 3: like yeah, sure, really every couple of weeks. But uh, look,
- 11:44Speaker 3: bring what you want, bring them all, bring them all,
- 11:46Speaker 3: you want all of them all, y'all, everybody, y'all come play, everybody,
- 11:50Speaker 3: come play.
- 11:51Speaker 2: You don't have to go to class extra practice.
- 11:53Speaker 3: Man, if if you play for LSU and you're not
- 11:55Speaker 3: fired up this week after what happened last year, after
- 11:59Speaker 3: you beat the hell out of them in every single
- 12:02Speaker 3: way outside of the scoreboard, and then you protecting your
- 12:06Speaker 3: quarterback Like we went over the stats on Monday, you
- 12:10Speaker 3: like doubled them up almost in everything, and you didn't
- 12:13Speaker 3: take advantage of your opportunities.
- 12:15Speaker 2: You didn't make the plays when you had to.
- 12:17Speaker 3: If you win that game, you go to the SEC
- 12:19Speaker 3: championship game, think about that, Think about where you could
- 12:24Speaker 3: have gone if you win that game, because you finished strong, right,
- 12:29Speaker 3: you finished strong after like and you beat Oklahoma and
- 12:32Speaker 3: you beat Vanderbilt. If you win that game, you're in Atlanta.
- 12:36Speaker 2: Now.
- 12:38Speaker 3: Things happen for a reason, and who knows, like if
- 12:40Speaker 3: they would have had Hey, we got to go spend
- 12:43Speaker 3: it on this roster.
- 12:44Speaker 2: Let's go spend eighteen million dollars.
- 12:46Speaker 3: Who knows if they have that feeling if they go
- 12:48Speaker 3: to the championship game last year.
- 12:49Speaker 2: But as a player, like you don't care about all that.
- 12:52Speaker 3: You just care about Like Florida beat you, and they
- 12:55Speaker 3: celebrated the hell out of it right in front of you,
- 12:57Speaker 3: and they're coming to your place.
- 12:59Speaker 2: I don't care who they lost to. I don't care
- 13:01Speaker 2: if they lost to Long Island and.
- 13:04Speaker 3: South Florida leading into this game, like it's orange and blue.
- 13:08Speaker 3: It's this ugly helmet that's sitting in front of me,
- 13:10Speaker 3: that's signed by who, Timothy Tbow. I'm gonna smudge that autograph. Yeah, sorry, sorry,
- 13:16Speaker 3: I just sat down and it was in front of me,
- 13:20Speaker 3: and I just said, I can't do it. I can't
- 13:22Speaker 3: have this in front of me. And I know it's
- 13:23Speaker 3: it's you know, the two helmets. They got a Colyde.
- 13:26Speaker 2: I got it. Just couldn't have its too close to me.
- 13:28Speaker 2: That's fine by me. You know. It kind of like
- 13:30Speaker 2: made my skin crawl, like my across my legs. I
- 13:32Speaker 2: got a winning record against that ugly helmet. That's fair,
- 13:36Speaker 2: I get it. You do two. I think you three
- 13:38Speaker 2: and two.
- 13:39Speaker 4: Just because we whip that ass doesn't mean I like them.
- 13:44Speaker 4: I can be by but fourteen. Sorry, I shoot, I'm
- 13:49Speaker 4: so sorry.
- 13:49Speaker 2: I forgot my rage for Florida. I know, I get it.

- 16:50Speaker 3: it's always going to heighten it just a little bit.
- 16:52Speaker 3: And again you can't worry about Florida losing to South
- 16:56Speaker 3: Florida last week. Man, this is a very very important game,
- 17:00Speaker 3: certainly for LSU. You get this one and then you
- 17:03Speaker 3: get an FCS opponent coming into your building, so you
- 17:06Speaker 3: get another opportunity to continue to develop, continue.
- 17:10Speaker 2: To get better.
- 17:10Speaker 3: And as we all know, once the SEC plays, play
- 17:14Speaker 3: starts and you you know, you don't have these non
- 17:16Speaker 3: conference games, what kind of work that is going to be.
- 17:18Speaker 3: But this one right here, you got a revenge factor.
- 17:21Speaker 3: You got to I hate you factor. Uh, you've got
- 17:24Speaker 3: a chance for Tiger Stadium to kind of show out
- 17:28Speaker 3: a little bit. And Brian Kelly, obviously this week he
- 17:31Speaker 3: kind of challenged every fan. He challenged him, Hey, all right,
- 17:35Speaker 3: this is the best place in the country. That's what
- 17:37Speaker 3: our resume says. But we need to go show that
- 17:41Speaker 3: to everybody because you know, the first game. But the
- 17:44Speaker 3: first game, actually, I mean, for being non conference, campus
- 17:47Speaker 3: was facked at the beginning of the game.
- 17:49Speaker 2: Losing a tech crowd was great.
- 17:50Speaker 3: But he's like, that's you know, that's good, it's good,
- 17:54Speaker 3: but that's not what we're talking about when we say
- 17:56Speaker 3: opponents' dreams come here to die. Like, let's make it
- 17:59Speaker 3: on bear for the Florida Gators. And so Brian Kelly,
- 18:03Speaker 3: the head coach, challenged every l s U fan. Look,
- 18:07Speaker 3: I got to work the game, so I'm not gonna
- 18:09Speaker 3: be like accept the challenge and I got to work.
- 18:10Speaker 2: I'm going to be at the game. I'd be at
- 18:11Speaker 2: the game, an I know.
- 18:15Speaker 3: I don't think Chris Blair wants me doing Keke Stands.
- 18:18Speaker 3: I not love the type.
- 18:19Speaker 2: Are you doing Keke Stands?
- 18:20Speaker 4: We'll see see if it means a win or lose,
- 18:24Speaker 4: then yes, I will bring the Kelly challenged me absolutely.
- 18:32Speaker 4: But this is you know, we talked about we hit
- 18:35Speaker 4: on this yesterday a little bit, but we spent an
- 18:37Speaker 4: entire offseason because of our opener, the season opener. We
- 18:42Speaker 4: spent an entire offseason arguing back and forth and people
- 18:46Speaker 4: all over the country arguing back and forth, who is
- 18:48Speaker 4: the real Death Valley. Well, we've proven which one is
- 18:51Speaker 4: the fake one, so we have to prove ourselves that
- 18:55Speaker 4: this is truly the place. So and we got to
- 18:58Speaker 4: let people know why it is Death val why opponent's
- 19:00Speaker 4: dreams come here to die. And like Jake said, this
- 19:05Speaker 4: was it was pretty good this past week and there
- 19:06Speaker 4: was a lot of people on campus, but it wasn't
- 19:09Speaker 4: really you know, it was it was like the warm
- 19:12Speaker 4: up right, it was the warm up before this week.
- 19:15Speaker 4: So last week it was the first game of the season.
- 19:17Speaker 4: Everybody's ready to tailgate, everybody's ready to party a little bit.
- 19:20Speaker 2: Get together for a game day.
- 19:23Speaker 4: We weren't really there to make Louisiana Tech's life hell.
- 19:28Speaker 4: This week is that week when we come and we
- 19:31Speaker 4: show out. We have a good time, but we are there.
- 19:34Speaker 4: The fans are there for a reason, and that is
- 19:36Speaker 4: to make it hard on the opponent. That is the
- 19:41Speaker 4: reason why it's called Death Valley is because we go
- 19:44Speaker 4: out there for purpose, and we go out there and
- 19:47Speaker 4: make it hard for the opposing team, and we get
- 19:49Speaker 4: loud because the louder it is, the harder it is.
- 19:51Speaker 4: So we got to warm up him. Yeah, it's time
- 19:54Speaker 4: to stretch a little bit, just some calisthenics. Get ready
- 19:58Speaker 4: because this is game day for every single person has
- 20:03Speaker 4: a ticket that's going to scan that ticket, walk in,
- 20:06Speaker 4: find your seat, and want you find your seat, lock
- 20:09Speaker 4: in and I want you to be there from the
- 20:12Speaker 4: moment they walk out in those stupid uniforms, those ugly colors, and.
- 20:17Speaker 3: They probably try to stomp on the eye of the
- 20:19Speaker 3: tiger who they are, right.
- 20:21Speaker 2: And they're all in Ah.
- 20:22Speaker 4: They're all in a line and they're you know, they're
- 20:25Speaker 4: right over left ready stretch and they clap and they're
- 20:27Speaker 4: stretching out on the line. They have their pre their
- 20:29Speaker 4: pregame warm up. That is when we got to start.
- 20:33Speaker 4: And then from then on it's four hours of hell yeah,
- 20:36Speaker 4: it's four hours of giving it everything you got. When
- 20:39Speaker 4: you go to work on Monday, I want you to
- 20:41Speaker 4: not have a voice. I don't want you to be
- 20:42Speaker 4: able to do if you're if you're a talker, I
- 20:45Speaker 4: don't want you to be able to do your job
- 20:46Speaker 4: very well on Monday.
- 20:48Speaker 2: What about us? Well us? Yeah, I don't know. Maybe Horse,
- 20:51Speaker 2: you have to talk, you can't yell. Yeah, I'd love
- 20:53Speaker 2: for you to be Horse. I mean that you did
- 20:55Speaker 2: your part.
- 20:56Speaker 4: I am. I'm going to be my kids. I'll be
- 21:00Speaker 4: disappointed to them that will get grounded if they're not yelling.
- 21:06Speaker 2: Landing inside the VYU four chats.
- 21:08Speaker 3: That huge reason I hate Florida is they sued my
- 21:11Speaker 3: high school, Santa Mont back in twenty twelve because our
- 21:14Speaker 3: logos apparently were too similar. Why are they worried about
- 21:19Speaker 3: a high school in Louisiana.
- 21:20Speaker 2: Bush League, Yeah, it is gonna Bush League.
- 21:23Speaker 3: I think they did the same thing landing to Captain
- 21:25Speaker 3: Shreve and shrevept they're also the Gators, and I'm pretty
- 21:29Speaker 3: sure where they Captain Shreve. So they had the script
- 21:32Speaker 3: like this, ugly, gross cursive, just bubble lettered script. I'm
- 21:37Speaker 3: pretty sure they had the same thing right here, and
- 21:41Speaker 3: they made them get rid of it too. So you
- 21:44Speaker 3: should probably worry more about winning football games and not
- 21:47Speaker 3: which high school is using your ugly logo. But I'm
- 21:50Speaker 3: pretty sure they made them do that same thing. Look
- 21:52Speaker 3: at that ugly signature just here we go.
- 21:55Speaker 2: I'm looking it up it.
- 21:56Speaker 4: I see this little picture right here, and all fairness
- 22:00Speaker 4: does look like the Florida gat.
- 22:03Speaker 3: That's fine, it doesn't matter. I mean, how many schools
- 22:06Speaker 3: in Louisiana use the tiger head.
- 22:08Speaker 4: The current gator for Santa Ma does not look anything
- 22:11Speaker 4: like the Florida Gator, but the old one kind of
- 22:13Speaker 4: pretty close.
- 22:15Speaker 2: Pretty close? You side with Florida here?
- 22:17Speaker 4: No, I'm not. I'm just saying it does look pretty close.
- 22:20Speaker 4: I think Florida might have stole it from them, but
- 22:24Speaker 4: who cares? I mean, why is Florida I worried about it?
- 22:28Speaker 4: Is our point? Yeah, because they're because because they're dumb. Honestly,
- 22:34Speaker 4: it's only only explanation I can have because they're the worst.
- 22:38Speaker 4: They're the worst type of type of person.
- 22:42Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
- 22:45Speaker 3: With Florida losing last week, they do you think that,
- 22:50Speaker 3: like does that change like your thought process?
- 22:53Speaker 2: Like, I know, are you? Are you? Is that? Is
- 22:56Speaker 2: that a worry for you?
- 22:57Speaker 3: I'm not talking about the coaches, but like just you know,
- 23:00Speaker 3: eighteen to twenty two year olds and they see them
- 23:02Speaker 3: lose to South Florida. Ye, now South Florida's got two
- 23:05Speaker 3: ranged wins. Nobody else in the country has that.
- 23:09Speaker 2: It makes me? Does it make me worried?
- 23:11Speaker 4: No, because I know that we have a really good
- 23:14Speaker 4: coaching staff is going to do everything, do all the
- 23:17Speaker 4: right things to get a team ready. The only thing
- 23:20Speaker 4: that like, so we want a big matchup as a
- 23:23Speaker 4: fan base, we want a big matchup like Florida coming
- 23:25Speaker 4: in early in the season, it's usually this game is
- 23:28Speaker 4: a big game.
- 23:28Speaker 2: It's usually not this early.
- 23:29Speaker 4: And you would have expected both teams to come in,
- 23:33Speaker 4: you know, after lsub Clemson, you would expect both teams
- 23:36Speaker 4: to come in undefeated.
- 23:39Speaker 2: But they're not.
- 23:41Speaker 4: And the only thing that would worry me a little bit,
- 23:44Speaker 4: like if Florida took out of business and DJ Lagway
- 23:47Speaker 4: had been looking really good and they had, you know,
- 23:49Speaker 4: won a lot too, a little against against South Florida.
- 23:53Speaker 4: There's nothing that a coach needs to say to an
- 23:56Speaker 4: LSU team when that happens. Now, you just said it
- 24:00Speaker 4: eighteen to twenty two year olds. There's a subconscious in there.
- 24:03Speaker 4: Every one of us has it that you can't control that,
- 24:09Speaker 4: there's an energy about you that it comes along.
- 24:11Speaker 2: We talked about it last week.
- 24:12Speaker 4: It's just impossible to get as intense subconsciously for Louisiana
- 24:18Speaker 4: Tech then it was a Clemson.
- 24:20Speaker 2: That's just human nature.
- 24:21Speaker 4: Like you can say all the right things, you can
- 24:23Speaker 4: do all the right things, you can do the exact
- 24:24Speaker 4: same steps as you did the week before in preparation.
- 24:27Speaker 4: There's just something in you that is it just comes.
- 24:30Speaker 4: Like like we said, the feel of the air around
- 24:33Speaker 4: Tiger Stadium is different this week than it was last week. Now,
- 24:39Speaker 4: if a team just has struggled a versus a on paper,
- 24:43Speaker 4: a lesser opponent like they are now, I think maybe
- 24:48Speaker 4: the subconscious takes.
- 24:49Speaker 2: Over a little bit.
- 24:50Speaker 4: But you can overcome that because it's Florida because of
- 24:53Speaker 4: the recent loss that you took last like there's still
- 24:56Speaker 4: but there might have to be some the coaches kind
- 24:58Speaker 4: of have to probably point in the right direction. They
- 25:00Speaker 4: got to say the right things. The coaches talk is
- 25:02Speaker 4: at as a premium this week when if they would
- 25:06Speaker 4: have taken him out, if Florida would have won like
- 25:08Speaker 4: they should have in commanding fashion and it was both
- 25:11Speaker 4: two teams at.
- 25:12Speaker 2: Two and zero, it would have been nothing they need
- 25:14Speaker 2: to say.
- 25:14Speaker 3: It would have been probably number three versus number eleven.
- 25:19Speaker 2: Maybe you never can game day might have been here.
- 25:22Speaker 4: Yep, there's no words that Brian Kelly needs to say
- 25:26Speaker 4: right now. You got to coach a little bit more.
- 25:27Speaker 4: You got to speak. You have to motivate and be
- 25:29Speaker 4: like I don't care. You got to say I don't
- 25:30Speaker 4: care about the game. Get South Florida, throw it out
- 25:32Speaker 4: the table. That's not that's not the Florida Gators.
- 25:35Speaker 3: They're a talented team and you have to like convince
- 25:37Speaker 3: your team that they are.
- 25:38Speaker 2: I still like, so.
- 25:42Speaker 3: I know that's been a long time like since obviously
- 25:45Speaker 3: like we played Florida, we hate Florida, but like you
- 25:49Speaker 3: talk to people that played before us, they hate Florida.
- 25:52Speaker 3: You talk to people that played after us, they hate Florida.
- 25:57Speaker 3: I still think this, like this group of players has
- 26:01Speaker 3: the same feeling towards Florida as most of us do.
- 26:05Speaker 3: Like you go back and you watch what was that
- 26:07Speaker 3: twenty twenty three, like with Jayden Dan When is Jason
- 26:10Speaker 3: Jayden's Heisman game?
- 26:12Speaker 2: Like Jaden won the Heisman against Florida. That was the moment. Yeah,
- 26:16Speaker 2: I thought so.
- 26:17Speaker 3: I mean he had an eighty five yard run where
- 26:19Speaker 3: nobody could catch him.
- 26:22Speaker 2: Like that group hated Florida.
- 26:24Speaker 3: So like when we start talking about permanent opponents and
- 26:27Speaker 3: we start talking about like who's LSU's rival, and look,
- 26:29Speaker 3: I understand like what the Alabama game is and it's
- 26:32Speaker 3: a cash cow. I get all of that, and for
- 26:34Speaker 3: a long time, it's like it was the best of
- 26:36Speaker 3: the best, like the most NFL people in the field.
- 26:38Speaker 2: I get all of that.
- 26:40Speaker 3: But like you tell us in just someing, like I
- 26:42Speaker 3: hate you, you hate me, Let's go fight for sixty
- 26:45Speaker 3: minutes and give everything that we have because I just
- 26:49Speaker 3: I can't stand your colors. There's something about your face
- 26:51Speaker 3: like that's it's Florida for like a large group of
- 26:54Speaker 3: LSU players, And I still think inside that building.
- 26:57Speaker 2: That's still the same feeling. Yep.
- 27:00Speaker 4: Like after the game, we'll meet in the middlement and
- 27:03Speaker 4: I'll shake your hand, but because I have to kind
- 27:05Speaker 4: of situation, not because I like respect her like I
- 27:08Speaker 4: want to, but it's like it's just the common courtesy.
- 27:11Speaker 4: You meet on the field and I shake your Like
- 27:13Speaker 4: a lot of opponents, You're like, man, House, you'll play great, man,
- 27:15Speaker 4: what a great game. I feel like the Florida game
- 27:18Speaker 4: is kind of like i'mna shake your hand because cameras
- 27:22Speaker 4: are on.
- 27:23Speaker 2: That's about it. You were you ever like that? Oh? Yeah? Absolutely?
- 27:30Speaker 2: Are you ever like that after a flag football game?
- 27:33Speaker 2: After a flag football game? No? Not really.
- 27:37Speaker 3: I mean maybe like maybe the referee or something. I
- 27:40Speaker 3: might be like you need to go like to the
- 27:42Speaker 3: corner of it. You need to take no. No, a
- 27:45Speaker 3: flight football game. No, I'm just kiddou No, I just
- 27:48Speaker 3: shake their hands. Like flag football games, you kind of
- 27:50Speaker 3: forget about it, like once you start eating dinner as
- 27:53Speaker 3: you get home, you know, or you.
- 27:55Speaker 2: Get in it and the loss you don't forget that
- 27:57Speaker 2: or you.
- 27:58Speaker 4: Get it's like you took it. You could take a
- 28:00Speaker 4: loss or something. And first thing that has said in
- 28:04Speaker 4: the car. What's for dinner? Yeah, ah, yep, next yeah,
- 28:09Speaker 4: next thing in life. Yeah, not not Florida, not Florida. No,
- 28:13Speaker 4: It's like, can I can I just.
- 28:14Speaker 3: Go straight to the locker room and not have to
- 28:15Speaker 3: say anything to these funeral yep?
- 28:20Speaker 4: After the seven game and we win, and I run
- 28:25Speaker 4: to the field and I go and I see T
- 28:28Speaker 4: bow and TBO was emotional. Of course, it was emotional game.
- 28:32Speaker 4: And you know, I knew that he had put everything
- 28:34Speaker 4: he had into it. Yeah, and you know you you
- 28:38Speaker 4: don't you don't feel bad for that, but like you
- 28:40Speaker 4: you respect that effort. But there was also a pretty
- 28:44Speaker 4: deep sense of joy as well to see the see
- 28:47Speaker 4: the gators hurting.
- 28:48Speaker 2: Yeah, a big sense of joy. I was. I really enjoyed.
- 28:51Speaker 3: The h every bit of it, uh Blake Miller inside
- 28:56Speaker 3: the bay U four. Chad dropped off the kids yesterday
- 28:58Speaker 3: with O t B and picked them up with off campus.

- 29:06Speaker 4: Yes, yes, that many things.
- 29:09Speaker 2: To say, Yes he does, Yes, he does. Well.
- 29:12Speaker 3: I mean, like I said on that show, you talk
- 29:14Speaker 3: to the temple head coach. Probably not going to speak
- 29:16Speaker 3: to the temple head coach here on this show. Probably
- 29:19Speaker 3: not going to be something we do.
- 29:20Speaker 2: I don't you know.

- 29:34Speaker 4: our football.
- 29:35Speaker 2: And he's ready to put them on the pontoon.
- 29:37Speaker 4: Parlay because he liked their coach's personality.
- 29:41Speaker 2: Right, Sometimes you gotta do it. Sometimes you go off vibes.
- 29:44Speaker 2: Sometimes it's a complete vibe check. That's what that is.
- 29:48Speaker 3: All right, We will step away, we'll get this thing started.
- 29:52Speaker 3: When we come back, we'll continue to break down LSU

- 33:16Speaker 3: you can go see them on Sunday morning as well,
- 33:18Speaker 3: if you know what I'm saying.
- 33:19Speaker 2: So go to go flowiv dot com.
- 33:22Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, you kinda know I'm not just
- 33:24Speaker 4: some guy when it comes to hydration, a kind of
- 33:28Speaker 4: the king of hydration.
- 33:30Speaker 2: Yeah, that's you know, self given.
- 33:31Speaker 4: But yeah, so picture this like you know, professional athlete,
- 33:34Speaker 4: a collegiate athlete, a high octane athlete likes to preload
- 33:38Speaker 4: their hydration before something starts, right before they do something
- 33:42Speaker 4: that's about to severely dehydrate themselves.
- 33:44Speaker 2: M hm. Well, Tiger fans, Brian Kelly called you up.
- 33:48Speaker 2: He did.
- 33:48Speaker 3: He wants you to do something that might may or
- 33:50Speaker 3: may not severely dehydrate you, so you gotta be proactive
- 33:54Speaker 3: about it.
- 33:55Speaker 4: Go see him at go Flow, get hydrated, get vitamized,
- 33:58Speaker 4: whatever you need.
- 33:59Speaker 2: Go all right.
- 34:01Speaker 3: We do have a little injury update on Braylin more So,
- 34:06Speaker 3: this is on Louisiana Sports dot Net. Hunt has a
- 34:10Speaker 3: write up on it, and Brian Kelly talked about you
- 34:14Speaker 3: know where he's at right now and the quote is
- 34:16Speaker 3: I think we have him listed as probable. If not,
- 34:20Speaker 3: maybe I'll double check. Maybe he's questionable. But he did
- 34:23Speaker 3: practice and this was on Tuesday, and expected him to
- 34:26Speaker 3: practice yesterday, which I believe he did as well. So
- 34:31Speaker 3: it does feel like he's at least trending in the
- 34:34Speaker 3: right direction.
- 34:36Speaker 2: You know.
- 34:36Speaker 3: Again, like with with kind of an ankle situation, it's
- 34:40Speaker 3: like are you going to have the strength? The mobility
- 34:42Speaker 3: is not really a concern when you play center, but
- 34:44Speaker 3: it's like do you have the strength?
- 34:46Speaker 2: Can you anchor can you put weight on it? Right?
- 34:49Speaker 3: Is it going to be a situation where it's so
- 34:51Speaker 3: weak and if they push you back, you're not going
- 34:54Speaker 3: to be able to reset yourself.
- 34:56Speaker 2: Right. We was talking about that on the offensive line.
- 34:58Speaker 3: So you know, having DJ Chester's great because again that
- 35:02Speaker 3: was your starting center all year a year ago. The
- 35:06Speaker 3: other four guys got drafted, right, So it's a talented
- 35:09Speaker 3: offensive line and you do have him available.
- 35:11Speaker 2: So but there's a.
- 35:13Speaker 3: Reason Brayden Moore was a starter. Yeah, and there's a reason,
- 35:15Speaker 3: like he won that job in camp. There's a reason
- 35:17Speaker 3: why you got him from Virginia Tech, and so like,
- 35:21Speaker 3: while you have a good backup situation still the backup.
- 35:24Speaker 4: Yep, And you want to starter, and if you're starting
- 35:27Speaker 4: to practice and you give him the benefit of the doubt,
- 35:29Speaker 4: that's why he's your starter. And if he can do
- 35:31Speaker 4: everything that he needs to and gets the all clear.
- 35:33Speaker 4: But I don't think it takes a genius to have
- 35:35Speaker 4: to explain to somebody that's never played football that when
- 35:40Speaker 4: you have really big, strong guys you're trying to stop
- 35:43Speaker 4: from prevent from doing something.
- 35:46Speaker 2: You probably.
- 35:48Speaker 4: If your ankle hurts, if your leg hurts, of whatever hurts,
- 35:50Speaker 4: you need to be at a pretty good health level
- 35:52Speaker 4: to be able to do that. Now they can brace
- 35:54Speaker 4: you up, they can stabilize. But I would expect and
- 35:58Speaker 4: pass protection at least on if he goes and he's
- 36:01Speaker 4: and if he's started early on in the game, probably
- 36:03Speaker 4: not putting him on put a do a pass protection
- 36:05Speaker 4: where you're putting him on an island and blocking one
- 36:08Speaker 4: on one, maybe a lot of three man or four
- 36:10Speaker 4: man slides to got to give somebody next to him
- 36:12Speaker 4: shoulder to shoulder with him, because it just as he
- 36:16Speaker 4: feels it out.
- 36:17Speaker 2: You just don't want a guy that's nursing an injury.
- 36:19Speaker 2: A little bit. You would hate to get him lined up, and.
- 36:22Speaker 4: The guards, you know, fan out, the tackles fan out,
- 36:25Speaker 4: and he's sitting there blocking somebody one on one as
- 36:27Speaker 4: he's testing out his ankle. You'd rather get a little
- 36:30Speaker 4: little all right, let's just push the right side, let's
- 36:33Speaker 4: let's isolate our left tackle on the defensive end, and
- 36:36Speaker 4: let's just slide everybody one way or the other and
- 36:38Speaker 4: get shoulder to shoulder here and try to clog up
- 36:40Speaker 4: some gaps.
- 36:41Speaker 2: So uh yeah, it'll be a little feeling out process.
- 36:43Speaker 4: But like you said, man, he's the starting center for
- 36:47Speaker 4: a reason, so you give him the benefit of the data.
- 36:49Speaker 4: If he can go and he can fight through some pain,
- 36:51Speaker 4: and they can. There's a lot of cool things they
- 36:53Speaker 4: can do with tape embraces, and I mean we talked
- 36:55Speaker 4: about DJ Lagway playing with a with a their band
- 36:58Speaker 4: or as a hamstringer a hamstring.
- 37:00Speaker 2: With a band.
- 37:01Speaker 4: Yeah, we always we had that too. I had I
- 37:02Speaker 4: had a pull D hamstring one time and they put
- 37:04Speaker 4: that band on me. I was like, this is pretty great. Yeah,
- 37:07Speaker 4: Like can you do this when I'm healthy? Is it
- 37:08Speaker 4: made me faster? So you're somebody that had a high ankle.
- 37:11Speaker 4: We talked about that yesterday and you did actually miss
- 37:16Speaker 4: a game. Now, if it wasn't Middle Tennessee State.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Do you play I don't know, maybe maybe not absolutly.
- 37:21Speaker 2: You know, you feel good about that.
- 37:22Speaker 4: That's a pretty severe Mine was a pretty pretty severe situation.
- 37:26Speaker 3: Right, So what like what can you do to try
- 37:29Speaker 3: to help, like you brace it up, like.
- 37:30Speaker 2: Do you get a little in there, like you.
- 37:33Speaker 4: Know, like yeah, so so doctor artHis talked about it
- 37:36Speaker 4: yesterday about high ankles. Like sometimes it's not even the
- 37:38Speaker 4: pain with something like that, it's the stability.
- 37:42Speaker 2: Right.
- 37:42Speaker 3: It's like I didn't feel stable on my leg like
- 37:44Speaker 3: it was when I it would it felt like it
- 37:46Speaker 3: would shift when I had it. Now when it shifted
- 37:49Speaker 3: it it hurt like.
- 37:51Speaker 2: Heck yeah yeah.
- 37:52Speaker 4: And so but you can you can get a little
- 37:55Speaker 4: to get that pain away, but the stability part. Yeah,
- 37:59Speaker 4: but that like I said, that brace and I'm sure,
- 38:01Speaker 4: I mean this is Jake.
- 38:02Speaker 2: It's been eighteen years. Yeah, eighteen years. You think they've
- 38:07Speaker 2: had some technology.
- 38:08Speaker 4: They might have had some technology investments at the time.
- 38:11Speaker 3: It was like the state of the art brace that
- 38:14Speaker 3: Maruccio fat state of the art brace. They sell it
- 38:16Speaker 3: probably Walmart.
- 38:17Speaker 2: There's no doubt.
- 38:19Speaker 4: They were talking about this and because I remember when
- 38:22Speaker 4: they ordered it for me, they because they had to,
- 38:24Speaker 4: like they take a mold bank and everything, and they're
- 38:28Speaker 4: talking about like, man, this is gonna be amazing. This
- 38:30Speaker 4: might look like stainless steel, titanium, spaceship.
- 38:33Speaker 2: Type stuff right here.
- 38:34Speaker 4: And it got into just like a clear piece of plastic,
- 38:36Speaker 4: looked like a it looked like a milk jug plastic. Yeah,
- 38:40Speaker 4: And I was like, that's it. Yep, that's the thing.
- 38:42Speaker 4: That's it. Sure is, And I'm.
- 38:44Speaker 2: Sure they got some Uh there's a few advancements in
- 38:46Speaker 2: the brace.
- 38:47Speaker 4: Game, yeah, but I mean there's only so many, so
- 38:49Speaker 4: many things you could do.
- 38:50Speaker 3: But if you look if he's already practicing, that's a
- 38:52Speaker 3: pretty grit sign. Yeah, if he's practicing early in the week,
- 38:55Speaker 3: Like if he didn't practice on Tuesday, was kind of
- 38:58Speaker 3: a little bit of an individual on Wednesday and maybe
- 39:01Speaker 3: we'll full gold on Thursday, then you start to worry
- 39:03Speaker 3: about if he's practiced on Tuesday Wednesday, Yep, like they
- 39:06Speaker 3: feel like he's going to give them.
- 39:07Speaker 2: That's pretty wild too, for sure.
- 39:09Speaker 4: Like a high ankle sprain, like there's a lot of
- 39:11Speaker 4: soreness that comes with that because there's I mean, there's
- 39:13Speaker 4: trauma to that area. There's a lot of inflammation, and
- 39:16Speaker 4: like I remember mine, mine was there was actually a
- 39:18Speaker 4: crack in the bone right so that I can't remember
- 39:20Speaker 4: if it was a phibia, tivvy or whatever it is,
- 39:23Speaker 4: but there was a crack and that was the definition.
- 39:26Speaker 4: It's not it's not considered a broken bone. It's considered
- 39:29Speaker 4: a high ankle sprain. Right, high ankle air quote sprain
- 39:34Speaker 4: covers a lot of different things, but the fact that
- 39:36Speaker 4: he was praicing three days after after it was injured
- 39:39Speaker 4: is pretty pretty wild to me. I wasn't even like
- 39:41Speaker 4: thinking about walking on it three days after my heart mind,
- 39:44Speaker 4: but I was probably not tough, just kidding.
- 39:47Speaker 3: I mean seven seven times in that I wanted to
- 39:51Speaker 3: say just that, but you said it for me. All Right,

- 42:09Speaker 3: Saturday again. I'll be here, I believe ten until eleven
- 42:13Speaker 3: thirty watching College Game Day, hanging out.
- 42:17Speaker 2: So come hang out with us. What do you think
- 42:19Speaker 2: it's a ninety five inchure. I don't know.
- 42:21Speaker 3: It's big. It's a big fellow. I didn't even know
- 42:24Speaker 3: they made TV's this big. Yeah, I'm sure you probably
- 42:26Speaker 3: have one bigger in your house. Can't have money. I
- 42:28Speaker 3: got a five entre right now, LSU, the line opened
- 42:33Speaker 3: up at minus eight and a half for your Tigers
- 42:39Speaker 3: went down to seven and a half. So open up
- 42:42Speaker 3: at eight and a half has gone down to seven
- 42:44Speaker 3: and a half. And also like minus seven and a
- 42:48Speaker 3: half is minus one oh five.
- 42:50Speaker 2: So not even not even even on the spread there now.
- 42:56Speaker 3: ESPN's Matchup Predictor gives LSU a sixty one point six
- 42:59Speaker 3: percent chance to win the game.
- 43:01Speaker 2: And again like spreads or spreads, But I wonder what.
- 43:04Speaker 3: Made Vegas take it down a full point for l
- 43:08Speaker 3: Shu's injury update. It's like, you know, I mean, if
- 43:11Speaker 3: you watched the game last week, trade as Green was
- 43:13Speaker 3: always going to be very difficult to get back into
- 43:15Speaker 3: this game, but with the Braidler more injury news, like,
- 43:18Speaker 3: that's actually it sounds.
- 43:19Speaker 2: Like it's a positive. So a little bit surprised by that.
- 43:23Speaker 4: Yeah, I would if I was a betting man, which
- 43:29Speaker 4: I kind of aim sometimes, I would bet that that
- 43:32Speaker 4: I might might tick up a little bit get some
- 43:34Speaker 4: late money.
- 43:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess that. I guess you could make the
- 43:44Speaker 2: argument that not neither team l.
- 43:47Speaker 4: SU or Florida looked very good this past week. They
- 43:50Speaker 4: Florida ran into a little bit more of a matchup problem,
- 43:54Speaker 4: more of a little bit a better team, a little
- 43:55Speaker 4: much better team. Yeah, neither teams. So but I you know,
- 43:59Speaker 4: playing a LSU playing at home obviously a huge advantage
- 44:03Speaker 4: for US. Yeah, it's surprising to me that the the
- 44:04Speaker 4: line's moving towards Florida, and especially at minus one of
- 44:08Speaker 4: five for seven and a half.
- 44:10Speaker 2: Huh.
- 44:12Speaker 3: And how about how about like a line like this,
- 44:15Speaker 3: So Clemson and Georgia Tech are playing each other. That
- 44:19Speaker 3: thing opened up at minus seven and a half for Clemson.
- 44:23Speaker 2: I actually think it got up to nine and a half.
- 44:25Speaker 2: Are you serious?
- 44:26Speaker 3: It got up to nine and a half. It's down
- 44:28Speaker 3: to two and a half right now. It opened up
- 44:31Speaker 3: this week. It opened up interesting at six and a half.
- 44:37Speaker 3: It's been seven and a half. Got up to nine
- 44:40Speaker 3: and a half during the build up to the game,
- 44:43Speaker 3: like it. So what we're talking about a couple weeks ago?
- 44:45Speaker 3: And but now, all right, Georgia Tech, let's go two
- 44:48Speaker 3: and a half only for Clemson. It should have been
- 44:53Speaker 3: that to begin with. Like, if you got it at
- 44:54Speaker 3: nine and a half, good for you, Good for you?
- 44:57Speaker 2: For you.
- 45:00Speaker 3: I can't confirm or deny if I got it at
- 45:03Speaker 3: that number.
- 45:04Speaker 2: Did you? I can't confirm nor deny. I just can't
- 45:08Speaker 2: do it. You did you? Son of a gun? I
- 45:13Speaker 2: wish I did that.
- 45:14Speaker 3: Would When you get a line like that, it makes
- 45:15Speaker 3: you want to like, go, go grab a couple of
- 45:18Speaker 3: ice cold do seqis? You're like, man, I need to
