Speaker 1: All Stars to Yota Presents Off the Bench with Jacob
Hester and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: Okay, here we go where the.
Speaker 1: Plays get broken down and science gets denied the Bench.
Hour two of Off the Bench Live from the Mercedes
Benz Baton Rouge Studio starts now.
Speaker 3: Workout song here.
Speaker 4: I feel like the vibes have been so high all week, be.
Speaker 3: Good, let's think good, good, vibe so good, probably except
for Monday, Monday the best.
Speaker 4: I feel like I was like in a great mood.
Speaker 3: On that you were, Yeah, yeah, you were in Richmond,
Virginia at rickety old rusty, old trap hud. It's still
hanging though, it is on.
Speaker 2: That old trusty, old trusty, rusty TRUSTe hadn't made it
to the groad sale just yet.
Speaker 3: All Right. The OTB top twenty five and Taytay is
getting ready to give you our twentieth ranked team. But
a quick recap before we get there. At number twenty five,
Boise State at number twenty four, Memphis at number twenty three,
Baylor at number twenty two, Georgia Tech at twenty one,
it was Tennessee and coming in at number twenty Tata
take it away.
Speaker 5: We're gonna go out to the Big Twelve at twentieth. Overall,
we have the Iowa State Cyclones. Rocko Becked returning year
three as a starter out in ames Iowa.
Speaker 1: Look.
Speaker 2: I wanted to put them a little bit higher.
Speaker 5: They do lose Jayden Higgins and Jalen Dowell, both big
time receivers form a year ago. They bring in Xavier
Townsend from UC, Chase sol from East Carolina, and look.
Chase Howell thirteen hundred yards and four touchdowns in the
past two seasons at East Carolina. He's been a productive guy.
They return nine guys with starting experience on offense, including
five offensive linemen. Brendon Black returns all fourteen games last year,
thirteen starts. Tyler Miller started fourteen games at right tackle.
That guy thirty seven consecutive starts on this team. They
have three fifth year seniors on that starting offensive line
and the other two have been on the team for
two years now.
Speaker 2: It looks really good.
Speaker 5: You have five returning starters from a year ago on defense,
including both of your starting corners Jeremiah Cooper, John Tes Williams,
and you look at their schedule. It's tough out the gate.
You have to go play in the Ireland. It's that
Week zero game against Kansas State. But after that, most
of your tough games are at home, like you have
Iowa in Ames, you have Arizona State at home. You
do go to Cincinnati and Colorado. Those teams have question marks.
Your home against BYU, your home against Arizona State, and
your home against Kansas to close out the season.
Speaker 2: Like I like their schedule. I think it lines up
this team. They set a.
Speaker 5: Program record with eleven wins last season. Matt Campbell, he's
been there for a number of years. He's got it rolling,
and you have a third year starting quarterback and five
oh linemen that started a year ago.
Speaker 2: Iowa State cycle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Matt Campbell stayed there. He could have
gone a lot of different places. He was like the
it coaching name for a long time and he kind
of like after last year, was again in this cycle
for a little bit. But he has said I am
staying at Iowa State. This man loves ames Iowa and
they are a program that has been consistent over the
last however many years you want to put on it,
six seven years. They lost both receivers that Tata said
to the Houston Texans. I believe both went to the
Texans and you still have a quarterback. It's going to
have new weapons. But Rockobeck's probably the more the more
safe choice of all the quarterbacks that we've kind of
talked about here in this top twenty five. Because we
had Tennessee. It's like, we don't really know what they're
going to be. I guess Boise State's got a pretty
good situation. But I mean he is a very good quarterback.
I think he can elevate his receivers. He's got a
couple of new ones, as State A pointed out as well.
But it is farmageddon from the get go in Ireland,
K State, Iowa State and Avery Johnson needs to take
elite for K State. But the winner of that game
is in a great spot, especially if it's K State.
K State schedule lindes up really nicely. But this Iowa
State team played for the Big twelve championship a year ago.
Now they got blown out by Arizona State, but they
win that game, they're in the College Football Playoff and
so Rody Dublin. Yeah, yeah, Week zero, August twenty third, Yeah,
the first game of the year. It is seventeen days
away from now it's farmer gets a great.
Speaker 2: Teen days away Farmageddon of this rivalry? Is that a
new name?
Speaker 3: Ah, I've heard it.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've ever heard that one before.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've heard it a bunch, And maybe it's just
because I love that We got a ton. We got
a ton of Kansas State listeners on off campus where man,
they love to talk about their wildcats. But yeah, going
down the list, I mean, you got Matt's in their
Boise State, but you got Sawyer Robinson at Baylor, you
got Haines King at Georgia Tech. And so it's not
actually like a bad group of quarterbacks as now I
look at it. But Rocco might be as like, as
far as pro potential, the best of that group.
Speaker 2: Well, and he can move a little bit too.
Speaker 5: And I know I mentioned that Jaylen Noel Jadon Higgins
both gone of Carson Hanson and Abu Sama from a
year ago both back. But Carson Hanson had fifteen touchdowns
a year Yeah, Sama had over six hundred yards from scrimmage.
Those two guys could run. You have two tight ends.
That boat started a year ago back. Rocco Beck's got
a little bit of weapons. They're just new on the
out side. But I think everything for him to be
successful this year is right there where he needs it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you like blind ranking said that Iowa State's
got a couple of really good tight ends, I wouldn't
even question it.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'd be shocked if they didn't.
Speaker 3: Honestly, if Iowa and Iway State don't have tight ends,
what's the world coming to?
Speaker 2: Is the Big twelve? The tight end, the top tight
end conference.
Speaker 3: The Big Ten? Big Ten? I think Big ten between
you know, produced had some Ioways had a ton of
high states.
Speaker 2: We're talking. We're not talking about these pansy passed catching
tight end.
Speaker 3: Michigan's had a ton. Well, I mean I think the
best overall tight end in football went to Iowa George Kittle.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's a good point. Fair Well, he was the
best tight end of all time. I took the smelling
salts away, so he I looked for him to have
a down year. Yeah, might have two three catches on
the season, a bunch of whiffs from past blocking, run blocking.
Speaker 5: George Kittle leading the league, and drop passes can drop
past miss blocks.
Speaker 2: It's kind of like when people get clean from hard drugs.
They get real angry. He's gonna have a lot of
personal fouls. He might bite people after the play. It's
just gonna be a real real storm cloud on the season.
Bring back the salts, al rip salts free, the salts,
free the salts. Come on, FDA, do what's.
Speaker 3: Right, NFL, do what you want to do the NFL.
I know what I'm talking about K State. We're talking
to Iowa State. You might hear k State on this
list here pretty soon. And I can't like that opening game,
Like I can't just harp on it enough to start
out your season in week zero, conference game, rivalry game
in in double the right, two teams like you got
a game called Pharmageddon that's going across the pond. That
is massive for both these teams, but certainly for K
State because after that they go North Dakota at home,
which you're playing at Dakota School, Like strap up, you
know kind of know what that game is gonna be.
We buckle that chin strap. You've got army, but at
home and there's no Bryson Daily there for the Black Knights.
You go on the road in a conference but not
conference games, actually a non conference game against Arizona They're
not gonna be any good. They're gonna be hydrated, yeah,
but not any good. Then you get a bye week,
right then you get Central Florida at home. Then you
go to Baylor, which you're gonna be tough, but then
you get TCU at home, and then a bye week,
and then at Kansas Texas take at home, and then
guess what, another bye week. So when you play that
week zero game and you play again in Week one,
that part of it's tough, but you're gonna get three
buys that come at a perfect time. For k State,
I always state it's a little bit of the same situation,
but those are two teams to watch out for whoever
wins that game, certainly in the Big Twelve.
Speaker 5: Well, the good thing about I with State, like you
were talking about the buys for Kansas State, you have
back to back away games, but it's Cincinnati and Colorado.
Colorado loses a ton Cincinnati will see in your home
against BYU and Arizona State, two tough teams, and you
go on the road to TCU and he finished the
season on the road against Oklahoma State. Like I'm trying
to find a super tough away game after that opener,
and there's just not one.
Speaker 2: Can y'all imagine if you live on in Ireland, on
the small island, you don't really American football fan, college
football fan, but you get excited for big events. All
of a sudden there's a game called Farmageddon coming to
your island. Absolutely, can you imagine what they're thinking? What
are these Americans doing? Like? What is this?
Speaker 3: Is it to the death?
Speaker 2: Is it to the death? What is this to a tractor?
Is it attractor off? What are we doing? Can y'all?
Can we go around the room and who can give
me the best Farmageddon in the Irish accent? Oh?
Speaker 3: I can't do it Irish?
Speaker 4: Can't? Okay, somebody do one so I can hear it. See,
I'm gonna try our mcgeddon.
Speaker 2: Mcgeddon Armageddon barn mcgiddondon.
Speaker 4: I feel like mine was pretty good. Taylor's is good.
Speaker 3: That always start out Irish and turned Scottish like real quick,
a fine line.
Speaker 2: He turned into like whatever the however the Hobbits talk
for sure, I think that's or is that too? For everything?
Speaker 3: I think it's far mcgeddon, Farnie mcgeddon.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I think I said it the same.
I think I said it perfectly every time.
Speaker 3: I mean every time. You just been.
Speaker 2: The potatoes man.
Speaker 3: That's a good call. With Iowa State that is number
twenty on our list.
Speaker 2: The someone else can.
Speaker 3: I don't think.
Speaker 4: Chanel Connor mcgre I.
Speaker 3: Was trying to think like.
Speaker 4: This was pretty good.
Speaker 3: That's actually pretty good. That's pretty sad that try togain. Yeah,
you can't do that again. There's no chance. All right,

Speaker 6: Most about you?
Speaker 1: Ros Pain?
Speaker 2: All right? Welcome back, Hove the bitch. Another banger? Is
this on your list? Was this? Was this song on
a burn CD somewhere?
Speaker 3: Hope Catholic? Pittsburgh is still city.
Speaker 2: All the things? All right? That maybe fark some upsetting
news in sports today. Before at the other before I
went to break last segment, I said a little parental
discretion here. We're gonna talk about a sensitive subject happening
in sports right now. We're gonna kick it to the
w NBA where some disgusting acts are happening at WNBA games.
It seems to be targeted at the Indiana Fever. Is
that right? That them? The Indian Fever nailed it? WNBA guy.
People in the crowd have started a trend of throwing
Let's see, how do we put this Neon Green we
Neon green adult toys under the court during basketball play. Yeah,
specifically Neon green ones for whatever the reason. You can imagine,
use your imagination what shape these are, what they're called.
But they have been throwing them. It has been a trend.
It has happened, I believe three times now leading to
fans being arrested. But certainly a lot of headlines headed
towards the WNBA. And you know, from the business side
of things, if I'm the w n b A, probably
any headlines are good headlines, stay stay relevant, stay hyped,
something to you're making headlines outside of Kaitlyn Clark, which
you know, not the way they wanted to do it,
but probably pretty decent. A lot of it is being
targeted at a probably the newest star in the in
the league, Sophie Cunningham, who's becoming like this WNBA like megastar.
It kind of happened when Caitlyn Clark was getting targeted.
She kind of was her kind of her protector. One
of the games was like one of the coolest clips
I've seen this year this summer when this girl, Sophie Cunningham,
somebody takes a cheap shot at Kaylyn Clark. She comes
basically chokes the girl out, smiling the entire time, laughing
the entire time. It's a great clip. You haven't seen it,
go check it out. But they are targeting her. And
she made a tweet a couple of days ago that said,
stop throwing what's the name of the famous hobbit from
the Hobbit Bilbo Bilbo, start throwing him onto the court,
somebody's gonna get hurt. Well, last night at w NBA game,
Sylvia Cunningham was playing in a game and guess what
she got hit. She got hit by Neon Green hobbit.
And things have suddenly become serious. Now what was a
joke is now serious. People are going to get hurt,
and people, what are we doing? If you were coming
to a game, First of all, where are you getting it?
Second of all, how are you getting it in the game?
Where are you putting it? Are you sneaking it in?
Speaker 4: It's actually a great question.
Speaker 2: Questions need to be answered. I'm sure you have to.
You have to come in with a clear bag, right,
these aren't small? Pretty big some ab suction cups on
one in Jesus, what stick? Uh? So, Look, it's an issue.
It's a problem, and I just wanted to bring a
headlights because it's, uh, it's what once was a joke,
it's now serious.
Speaker 4: There you go, right, I find this really like just discussing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why did it start?
Speaker 6: Because I don't know why it started. I don't know
the backstory behind it. I would assume that it's just
a guy being disrespectful because it's easy. It's an easy target.
And I was telling y'all, like, I'm not a WNBA fan,
I'm not here to White Night for the WNBA or
anything like that. But that's just why are we doing that?
Like it's really dumb and I hate to be this person,
but can we just respect women? Like y'all know I'm
not this person, but like it's just there's no reason
to do it other than to humiliate the women that
are out on the court doing like trying to do
their job.
Speaker 4: And I don't know, it's just I'm not I.
Speaker 2: Think I think the players actually, like including the Sophie
Kenningham girl, is like target of it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they did.
Speaker 2: They played it off really well. It's because they laughed
it off. They said it was funny. I think even
in interviews they're like yeah, okay, it funny whatever. They
handled it great. Yeah, and she like jokingly said, hey,
y'all cut it out without having to like try to
take a big stance. It is a stupid like respect
this blah blah blah, like they said it without saying it.
And then but of course, like just like there's all
there's idiots everywhere, so if you don't come out with
a serious stance, they're gonna just keep taking advantage of it.
Speaker 3: So not what I had teasing today.
Speaker 2: I thought that people should know.
Speaker 3: I actually like I've only seen it through social media,
like a little bit here and there, like Tata said,
like as soon as he opened up his computer after
you teas is like the first thing that he solved,
So I haven't seen it. The problem with it is, though,
once you give it attention, like it's gotten for sure. Now,
bad that goes into that arena is gonna think that,
oh I can be the guy that makes the news.
And it's dumb because I mean they technically they can
press charges them, they can do whatever they want if
you're coming in their arena.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well there are people there. They've caught the people
and they've arrested them. So like they are arresting people.
Speaker 3: Is this the first sports story that Flinns brought like
to the table?
Speaker 2: Also the quarters yesterday we're talking about that. So the
quarterback for right yea? The starter? Apparently all is he confirmed?
Allegedly there's rumors having this is not this morning. It's
allegedly rumors are circling that he could or couldn't.
Speaker 6: Be a furry well because he posted a picture of
furries on his Instagram story like seriously, like.
Speaker 2: He seriously did it? Is this kind of like the
j Cayner photos where it's like, are you messing with us?
I don't know.
Speaker 3: I hadn't seen the photos. I just saw you and
Tata talking back and forth in the group text about this.
I know Josh Hoover is a really good quarterback do
for a lot of your slash potentially a really good free.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't know. Is it so?
Speaker 2: Is a furry any animal or specific like has be
a specific type.
Speaker 3: You were talking The person that used to sit in
this chair could have given you probably the definition and
exactly what it was. I cannot give you that information, sir,
because I don't know.
Speaker 2: I would like to pull up that clip of Sophie
Counenham defending Caitlin Clark.
Speaker 4: That's a I've seen it.
Speaker 3: It was it was like, really, hey, hey, all right,
radio guy here, Yeah, teach me. The other day Tata
said he went to practice and said that Garrett Nesmeier
got hit. Now it was a big time player that
hit him. Probably didn't mean to happens all the time
in training camp. But on principle, typically you got to
go out there and you got to go defend your guy. Ye,
go ahead, and now you can't help. You saw a furry,
now you can't help.
Speaker 2: This is like I literally saw a squirrel.
Speaker 4: Yeah literally.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I do want to talk about that, and
I think that deserves probably like a little bit more
time to let that one marinate. Okay, So yeah, Garrett
me thats my did get hit in practice. The way
you made it sound made it sound like it was
on purpose. It wasn't like it wasn't like an accidental
like a He says, yes, yeah, I didn't hate it either.
Go ahead, though, talk about your squirrel that you saw?
Literally no, he just he put the picture up of.
Speaker 4: But Josh Hoover said, can't confirm this is me, oh
w O.
Speaker 2: I don't know with W.
Speaker 3: I was just about to ask the youth, what is
O W?
Speaker 2: The biggest question is which one I'm going with? The
purple guy, yeah, for sure, I don't know. I'm going
with a talk one.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, you don't know that person.
Speaker 2: He could be with the basketball team.
Speaker 3: You're right, person could be on a ledge.
Speaker 2: The purple one does look a little bit more masculine,
but that's like, that's not a normal animal costume they have.
M This is weird. This gives me the creeps. Can
we find out what O W?
Speaker 5: O me?
Speaker 3: I'm googling right now, but what about this? It's part
of internet, our furry culture, and often meant to mimic
a wide eyed, innocent face.
Speaker 4: I don't like that.
Speaker 3: What like wide eyes and acute mouth is what the
internet says?
Speaker 2: Okay, this is that's weirder than dressing up as a
fury using that in a tweet. Okay, this is uh,
he's definitely messing with us.
Speaker 4: He's trolling.
Speaker 2: He's got to be trolling, right, I hope so like
with like for most like level headed Americans that would
think that is really strange way of behavior, lifestyle. You
have to think he's messing with us. That's not normal people.
No I said, I said it yesterday. If this is true,
I got to pick t so you to finish the.
Speaker 3: Last yep, all right, last time we let flint tase anything. Uh,
we'll be back. Maybe we can talk about you're a
no smary getting hit in practice. Maybe we do a
little would you rather Wednesday? I don't know. We'll see
where it goes here on OTV off the bench?
Speaker 2: What happened to black.
Speaker 3: Watching that last segment? Maybe you had a nice cold
dose Segueser two. Maybe you went for dose. It's always
a great time to go for dose. Don't allow the
summer vacation time that passed us to mess up you
going for dose? Right, flake beer, river beer, beach beer,
pul beer. Think it's not completely over. But now we
move on to tailgate beer. Now we move on to
free game beer. Now we move on to a fall beer.
And it's always a great time. I mean, if you're
in the stands drinking hand, it might as well be
the best, which is a dose. Sekies go for dose.
They have got a website and everything. Fund's probably gonna
tell you about drink do sekis responsibly.
Speaker 2: If it's a weekend or weekday, whatever it is, you're
feeling little thirsty, you want to have a cold beverage,
a little pop making the dose Sekies stay thirsty, go
for dose. Get an iced cold, delicious Mexican lagger cut,
a nice lime, go for dose. Dose Segies, drink responsibly,
Yes me O.
Speaker 1: Nightly Locked in on LSU Football twenty four to seven.
You're listening to off the Bench.
Speaker 4: Swing the spending stuff.
Speaker 6: You wear, those shoes in that well that dresses.
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in OTV one oh four five
ESPN Beton Rouge. Before we get to a little would
you rather Wednesday? We did talk about it between the
Bilbo Baggins and furry conversation. Uh Taite was telling us
off area yesterday that Garrett Nesmeyer got hit in the backfield.
Was it a team drill? Was it? I'm eleven eleven? Yeah,
and this was Monday, right, okay, And the offensive line
didn't really make a big fuss about it. I go
back and forth with this because you fight, I say,
I come from like the old school of quarterback. It
wasn't even a question like quarterback, like if you if
you looked at him in the wrong way. It doesn't
matter if you were my best friend and you were
a defense guy, Like we gotta fight on principal. But
the story I always go to because it's just one
that sticks out in my mind. We drafted Monty Ball
in Denver in the second round and I was a
fullback and Wesley Woodard, who's good friend of mine, was
a great friend of mine at the time. Uh kind
of hit him late and it was out of bounds.
And if anybody's gonna protect the running back, it's a fullback.
So we go over there and we're fighting. We are
throwing everybody like it then became you know how then
the rest of the running backs. I was on full back,
but the rest of the running backs come over, the
tight ends come over, and it's like linebackers, safeties, a
full backs, tight ends and backs, and it is what
it is again. Me and Wesley great friends. We're fine,
you know, minutes after that, but in that moment, we're fighting,
like you aren't going to big boy, my rookie running back.
Speaker 2: So you know, let me ask this.
Speaker 3: I don't I don't love the fact, like something's got
to happen, even if we got to run because of it.
Speaker 2: Like, has there been a fight in camp yet? I
don't know, but that's gonna that's the only indictment I've
heard coming out of camp. You have to have some fights.
Have you ever been a part of a training camp
on a good team that didn't have fights? I mean,
the fighting is okay in training camp. It doesn't no
one gets hurt, like, you don't get like touched in
the throat, you don't get like, there's no bloody mas.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of our fighting with the Cowboys because
we've practiced against them every year, just makes you more
tired and it's dumb, but yeah, it also shows that
one everybody cares.
Speaker 2: Yeah, everybody is competing really hard and oh yeah, you're
forming the relationships and learning the hierarchy of protecting your
teammates all the time. And so Garrett got hit the
other day. I didn't see it, so I'm like, I
can't judge the player. I have no idea. I'm just
based on what I'm hear and what Taylor saw it says,
you know, he didn't like it wasn't like a friendly fire,
Like I'm running and I accidentally clipped him on accident.
If that happens in a practice, you got there's a fight.
It needs to be a fight, and it's in the
offensive lineman need to start it. That's what they do.
I think every offensive line coach I ever met was like,
protect your quarterback. You fight if they hit him, if
they treat him wrong. I mean, it's just like an
enforcer in hockey, Like it was the force of that
that protected Sidney Crosby here, Wayne Gretzky. Everybody had like
that's the offensive lines job, so and it's okay to fight.
It's not like being mad at the defensive guy. It's
just like you draw a line say don't do it.
If you do it, we fight, and again, nobody gets hurt.
It's just a fight. Everyone gets tired, like you blow
up to each other. Punches are thrown, people are tackled.
Speaker 3: I mean, we are dumb. We do throw punches with helmets.
Speaker 2: It's just like shows. I don't know. I was kind
of disappointed when I heard it, and that is probably
the one indictment I've heard coming out of campus that
there haven't been any training.
Speaker 3: I know, I will say I know at least from
being a practice as before that's one of b K's
biggest pet peeves is fight steering camp. Not a fan
of it because I think he's thinking broken hands on
a helmet, thinking logical of it. But sure, I'm with you.
Speaker 2: How many broken hands have you ever had in a
camp fight? How many have you ever seen? How many
years I've ever seen one? A lot, A lot, me too,
never saw a broken he never did, never, snybody.
Speaker 3: I am with you, I am, I am.
Speaker 2: You got to control, you can't let it get out
of control. But like situations like that, my quarterback gets it,
especially my quarterback that is the unquestioned leader who's auder
you protect him at every even even so much so
that most coaches will excuse a late hit in a
game in fifteen yards, depending on the situation. If your
quarterback takes a cheap shot right, they will be okay.
If a lineman comes in and cleans up the guy afterwards,
I don't know, and I don't even think that. That's
not like a back in my day take either. You
see it all the time, see it in the NFL.
So if I'm coaching the offense, coaching the line, I'm
saying I'm telling the lineman if you ever let this
happen again without any repercussions. You're running.
Speaker 3: Immediately.
Speaker 2: Oh h well after practice whatever. It doesn't matter because
I've had I've witnessed multiple coaches say that it's offensive
groups again.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's all your assets right there. Yeah.
Speaker 3: One of my best training camp fights before we get
to would you rather?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 3: Anthony Spencer played for the Cowboys. I'm sure he was
a really good player. I'm sure Tayte remembers that name.
He had Philip late in a practice and it was
egregious and like it was like on the side of
the head, kind of like an arm to the side
of the head, and it was after the whistlin It
was a joint practice, and like all the offensive linemen
saw it and they tried to like change direction to
go immediately after Anthony Spencer. But the best part about
that story is Randy McMichael, who we had on at
media days. Out of nowhere. He comes in and like
jumps over the offensive lineman and like wrangles Anthony Spencer
up almost like he's like trying to get a calf
at the rodeo, and just like takes him to the
ground and then everybody piles on. But my main Randy
was well into his thirties. I didn't know he still
had that in him. And I don't know that I
can get it, but I'm gonna try to get the
practice clip because they were still filming because it happened
immediately after the play. Hears Nick Hardwick and like goes
after Anthony Spencer and like just ties him up, and
then everybody just piled on.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's an unwritten it's an unspoken rule. You
talk about unspoken rules in like baseball all the time.
It's an unspoken rule in football. Like, I guess we
gotta fight, though don't want to, because I guess we
got to. You're the guardians, Yeah, there's things that happen.
Have y'all ever seen the documentary of the Hockey Enforcers? Yeah?
Ice is it? Ice Guardian.
Speaker 3: I don't know the name, I know what you're talking about,
but it talks.
Speaker 2: About the role of it. And then how like the
role became even more significant when way Wayne Gretzky was
doing the scene because he was the greatest of all
time getting that nickname, earning it, and then they're like,
all right, well, let's just beat him up. If we
can't beat him with a hockey stick, we can't stop
him from putting it in the net every time he
touches it. Let's just beat him up. And so they
responded with all right, well we got a guy that's
gonna beat your guy up. Yeah, and if you touch
our guy, we're gonna throw We're gonna throw hands. So
if you got a quarterback who is a Heisman contender,
we're gonna throw hands.
Speaker 3: That's fair. I'm with you. I'm doing what everything it is.
I don't even care if I like the quarterback or not.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter if you like the defensive guy, that's okay.
Speaker 3: You hug your best friend.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna hung afterwards, and that's fine.
Speaker 3: You fights Me and Weddle got into during practice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a thing. It's not like we're mad at anybody.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do like that. Alandra inside the YU four
chat OTB crewse shares on brain cell. We're trying to
say one there, but as you get it, it's tough
when you're sharing one in a room.
Speaker 4: One in Spanish.
Speaker 6: Yeah. And I also don't think that it's equally twenty
five percent each.
Speaker 4: I probably have about ten percent of it, then y'all
have the rest.
Speaker 3: It depends on what day it is. Yeah, I think
it depends on what day it is. All right, let's
each get to a would you rather hear on? Would
you rather Wednesday? Yes? I gave you poll, and I
gave everybody in here plenty of time. I talked about
it multiple times, so we got.
Speaker 4: It's totally on me, all right?
Speaker 3: Would you rather a Heisman level quarterback with a bomb
squad of an offensive line or an elite offensive line
with a bomb squad quarterback?
Speaker 2: I think you need the elite QB, all right. Either way,
you're not going to be very good. So I'll take
the elite QB because this is at least going to
put fans in the stands.
Speaker 3: Right, he can he can maybe make some stuff happen
at South Carolina.
Speaker 2: Yes, like he made them respectable. If that's a good
keep him in it. You can hide sometimes you can
hide an offensive line. You can't hide a quarterback.
Speaker 3: Look, I think Jalen Hurts is a hell of a player.
I think he is incredible, So, like, take Jalen Hurts
out of your mindset. But I don't know, there's a
lot of quarterbacks I think could play really well behind
that Philadelphia Eagle offensive line and still win a lot
of games.
Speaker 6: I think if you have a good offensive line, it
gives the quarterback more time to process what's going on.
Speaker 4: So like, maybe I think I'm gonna go against the Green.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I mean it's a running back answer in me,
I guess. But maybe you can run the ball. Maybe
the quarterback doesn't suck all the time. Maybe when he's
a bomb squad member, he completes a couple of passes
here and there.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of quarterbacks. Again, I think
Jalen Hurts could thrive in a lot of different systems.
Speaker 2: But I don't think anybody's gonna mistake O Jalen Hurts
for a bomb squad quarterback.
Speaker 3: I know, so, I'm saying, but you put in Kenny Pickett,
they still won games.
Speaker 6: Can Jalen Hurts do the tush push without the old line?
Speaker 2: Ooh, good question, solid question. We can't. That's the worst place.
That's that's that's nothing every down.
Speaker 4: You think it should be out lawed, then we could
do it.
Speaker 2: But Jalen Hurts and squat six hundred and fifty. Well, yeah,
go watch him. Usually none of his feet are touching
the ground. He's just getting carried into the vent. Yeah,
I hate that play.
Speaker 3: Uh, why you hate it and be soft?
Speaker 2: I think it should be out. Why because it's it's
such an automatic play. Yeah, what's gonna happen? I don't
I'm I fear for the future. I don't want every team.
I don't want every fourth and one to be a
guaranteed first down or touchdown. And that's what you're gonna see.
Every team's gonna start doing it, and it's just a guarantee.
It's stuff tried, that's what that's what They're gonna.
Speaker 3: Practice it and get better.
Speaker 2: Well, so I once once how the teach it starts
to spread from team the team, and how to coach it.
You can't replicate something you don't know how to coach.
Speaker 5: I have seen the people say, well, it's an automatic
first down on fourth and one. If I'm the defense,
don't let them get into fourth and one.
Speaker 2: That's that's a dumb take. I mean, don't let them
getting fourth and one one. That means you did your job,
you stopped them.
Speaker 3: The three way that I'm going to agree with you
here is if you think the best alternative is to
full back dive it on fourth and one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, at least. I just don't want to get in
a situation where I'm watching football, the game I love,
and every time it's fourth and one on the goal line,
like it's a guaranteed touchdown and it's gonna spread to
every team. I would rather be like, I don't know
what's gonna happen. I don't know what's gonna happen.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'd rather Tony Romo every time instead of every team.
Once it gets coached right on every team and the
philosophy spreads, every team's gonna do it, and every team's
gonna have a guarantee.
Speaker 3: Touch the most.
Speaker 4: I think so too.
Speaker 2: It's not because I think it's unfair. I just think
I don't want my football to look like that.
Speaker 4: Do you think defenses will adapt to it?
Speaker 2: Though?
Speaker 4: Then they'll stop it?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I'm Everybody always says this automatic plaything, and I get
it because I agree maybe eventually, but nobody else has
been able.
Speaker 2: To replicate it. That's because Solid Point coach, like the
coaching staff hasn't really moved anywhere until this year.
Speaker 3: Well, I hope that Keller Moore and Doug nush Meyer
and Scott Tolzy and I hope they are coaching it
up this year.
Speaker 2: Is a big part of it. Okay. I know he's strong,
he's big, and he's really he's like a perfect fit
to do that.
Speaker 3: If Taysom comes back, he's still on the team, like
he's fully healthy.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I just thought they had the chance to
That's just envision in two or three years. That's how
football looks fourth and one. It's just like, all right,
it's just a it's just an old school extra point
at that point. Anyway, That's what I think, all right?
Speaker 3: Would you rather this man had passion? I like it
coming from let's take a break? Yeah, okay, and when
we come back, everybody else will have a chance to
have a little Would you rather? Didn't know that that
was going to be the one that hit? But it did.
It absolutely did. And you feel good, You're good, You
are right?
Speaker 2: How do we even get there?
Speaker 3: How did we get there?
Speaker 2: It's about the elite QB or Alito line. Yeah, yeah,
me in the chats at horrible take automatic, everyone would
do it. I just explained that once it gets coached
everybody will be.
Speaker 3: Doing I don't know. I actually agree with the chat
because the Bills tried. I think I know, Jim, I
don't think they can do it.
Speaker 2: They also did it in the worst way. They had
alan like step. They didn't do it the right way.
That's what I'm saying. They didn't. They tried, they didn't
do it. If they everyone does it that way and
it's coach if the coaching points are there.
Speaker 6: Hey, let me look it up, because I we we
were talking about whenever they tried to ban it and
it got they were like, nah, we aren't doing it.
There is like a certain percentage of I have to
look it up, but there's like it only worked a
certain amount of time for the Eagles.
Speaker 3: All right, just take a break, continue, would you rather Wednesday?
When we come back on the other side, it is
otb off the bench, all right. If your business runs

Speaker 1: From players to legends, Hester and Flynn breakdown l s
U football like only champions can.
Speaker 3: I was so high I did not recognize by a
murder right Chios.
Speaker 4: Staff control of my mind.
Speaker 3: For goodbye.
Speaker 1: She got on a planet again, always in my home.
Speaker 2: Shout out for the drummer of Marine five.
Speaker 3: Don't know who it is, Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: Matt Flynn, I wish I could drum.
Speaker 3: Probably wishes he could quarterback. What he probably wishes he
could quarterback.
Speaker 2: That's true.
Speaker 3: Every musician will to be an athlete. Every athlete wants
to be an actor. A musician's kind of the way
it is, at least the ones that I know.
Speaker 2: I think that's pretty accurate across the board.
Speaker 3: All right, let's see we got one more. Would you
rather who wants it? Who wants it?
Speaker 2: Who he was about I did. I'm not saying it's good,
But your other take? Would you rather fight? Yes, one
hundred duck sized horses or one horse sized duck? Duck
sized horses size horses, you'd rather fight them? Dug that
big trying to peck you is going to hurt a
lot me. What horse? And he can fly like aerial
text put in his.
Speaker 3: Mouth and fly away with you?
Speaker 2: Probably is a many horse.
Speaker 4: They can all like hand to hand combat or.
Speaker 2: Like you can't.
Speaker 5: The biggest thing a horse does is like it kicks
you if you're not paying attention. But from that low
doesn't matter.
Speaker 6: I don't know, because ducks are still pretty like I'm
thinking about the strength of a horse, right yeah, and
ducks are still pretty like.
Speaker 4: They're not small, yeah, I mean it's it's not small.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: I think I'm gonna go duck sized horse because it's
just one rather than a hundred little horses.
Speaker 2: Horse sized duck.
Speaker 4: That's what you said, right, yeah, horses duck. Yeah, that's
where I'm gonna I.
Speaker 2: Was gonna go that on two because you think of
ducks and you think they're pretty soft, but they do
have the aerial advantage. Have you ever seen like ducks
die they break? Yeah, I mean they could. He could
just keep doing it over and over and then heyan combat.
There's no way to no way to defeat that. They
got like padding all of them to you can't punch
them because they got feathers, huge feathers at that point.
So I'll take the hundred duck sized horses, all right.
Speaker 3: The Saints have released an unofficial depth chart. We'll break
it all down. No clarity of quarterback stick around to
find out off the bench.
