Speaker 1: I'll start Toyota Presents off the Bench with Jacob Hester
and Matt Flynn.
Speaker 2: Hester and Hester got it, Fie little pot.
Speaker 1: From carrying each other to and Natty to carrying each
other on the air.
Speaker 3: Were there's Proud Control.

Star Toyota.
Speaker 3: Here on one of four five ESPN, Maton Rouge.
Speaker 2: Let's get to a little would you rather Wednesday?
Speaker 3: This one's this is tough.
Speaker 2: Would you rather this week be Texas quarterback Arch Manning
or Alabama head coach Kaylen.
Speaker 3: De Born Church manage? Really?
Speaker 4: Oh, Texas plays nobody for the next three weeks. I
can stab Pat.
Speaker 2: But here's the deal, Jordan, and I think Flynn will
agree with me here. There's nothing he can do in
those three weeks that's going to change a lot of people's.
Speaker 5: Minds, because there's nothing Kaylen de Bor can do for
the rest of the season for people to change their
minds on him.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, the people is spoking. I'd rather be
arts right now.
Speaker 6: All right, Well, you only play one game a week,
but for twenty four hours a day, seven days a week.
You can be arch Manning starting quarterback or Texas. Yeah,
walking around campus. Yeah, the bars so pretty sweet. If
you're Kailyn bar you can have that beta face all.
Speaker 7: Week and a bad hairline.
Speaker 8: Does he look he always got a hat on.
Speaker 4: You know, it's crazy that we was down there at
Tipeau for the man in Passing Academy. Arch Manning pulled
up in a white sprinter van, popped out for like
two dudes, walked around the bar and left everybody else
Like everybody else is having a good time, you know,
Marcel Reed, Haynes King, who I feel like you should
beat head QB at.
Speaker 3: Yes he's and Phil still he's QB.
Speaker 4: One Okay, just making sure, but yeah, he he didn't
really socialize that everybody. You know, Tyler Schuck was there
taking shots with us. You know, arch just pulled up
sprinter van, looked around, walked around, had a little you
know a little couple of girls walking around with him,
and then left got to buy their QB one stuff.
Speaker 8: I guess, hey, you know.
Speaker 3: How a good would you rather?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 4: We would you rather be the starting Would you rather
be the best player on the Championship team, or would
you rather be no, no, the best player on a
losing team, or would you rather be a bench warm
on a championship team?
Speaker 3: I want to play, you want to play? I want
to play.
Speaker 4: So you'd rather be the best player on a losing team?
Speaker 3: I mean, I try to change your fortunes there, but
I can't watch. Okay, I need to play, Matt.
Speaker 2: I gotta feel like I helped the team in some way.
Speaker 8: MM. I don't know.
Speaker 6: So we yeah, we have done this one before, so
my answer might be different.
Speaker 8: But I want to play. Play, I'll play.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think we all said playing. Taylor was
the one that was like, I want a championship?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 7: Which is on brand?
Speaker 8: Hmm?

Speaker 8: I did.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to find it.
Speaker 8: Jesus, they relaxed, he's trying to find it all.
Speaker 3: Just go ahead.
Speaker 7: Don't want to step all over you.
Speaker 2: Please due pay relax, turn your heel in while you're
at it.
Speaker 3: Good Lord.
Speaker 5: Would you rather only be able to eat food someone
else chewed first? Or every drink you take must be
served from a stranger's shoe?
Speaker 2: You know you give me the shoe, so I got
to drink out of somebody's shoe or I have to
eat Oh my, that's I got what was it, old Greg?
Speaker 3: You drink Bailey from a shoe? That old Greg? Remember
the video YouTube Greg? They both sucked though.
Speaker 7: Yeah, drink.
Speaker 2: I'm drinking out of the shoe a little bit. I
mean it's not great, but not great.
Speaker 7: But I can't mob that doesn't wash.
Speaker 3: Their doesn't you open their feet?
Speaker 8: You got it.
Speaker 6: You have to go with the shoe thing, because I
don't think you can get you probably can't, but I
don't think you can get like sick from that. Like
if somebody's got some nasty stuff in.
Speaker 4: Their mouths, got some little athlete's foot going on down there.
Speaker 6: I guess you could get that. But like if you're
eating something out of someone's mouth, like yeah.
Speaker 4: Just every every meal, somebody has to sit there and
spit it on your plate and you have to eat it.
Come on, man, I'll drink out the shoe. Put a
little Martini in the shoe, a little a little kick
with it, little zest.
Speaker 3: Yeah that is gross. That's brutal, man. Where you got
that from?
Speaker 8: That is? That's crazy? All right? All right?
Speaker 3: You sure not sure what you're ready? You need to relax, pal.
Speaker 6: Would you rather only be able to eat pizza, yes,
for the rest of your life, or never be allowed
to eat pizza again?
Speaker 8: Oh?
Speaker 3: Never eat pizza?
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think I could go without. I mean, I
love it.
Speaker 8: It's a balanced if you like that old school pyramid thing.
Speaker 2: I'm not a pizza each is great, but it's it's
not one of my go to so yeah, you know, Yeah.
Speaker 7: I love pizza, but I don't think I could eat
it every day for the rest of it.
Speaker 8: There's probably a time in life where I would have
said pizza.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: College, Like I'm a man now. Yeah, every now and then.
Too much bread makes a tummy rumble.
Speaker 8: Yeah, too much cheese a little too. It's not the cheese,
it's the bread.
Speaker 7: The bread.
Speaker 6: Sometimes the bread hits different than others. Sometimes like two
bucks of bread and I'm not feeling great. Sometimes I
can eat a bunch of bread and I feel great.
What's happening with that, I don't know. Maybe it's how
inflammed the gut is. Yeah, no idea, learn a lot
about gut health the older you get.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So I think we're all on ingrants.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's not a good quae. We're all in a grants.
Speaker 3: Ye, too much good food out there. It's just as
GPS fault. Would you rather? Would you rather betray?

and I hate being in the middle even I can't
stand even if it's thirty minutes. I don't know if
I want to suffer for thirty minutes or like be

thinking that was going to help me, and it made
it worse because the bathroom's tiny.

Dirt's not accurate. It's the shot.
Speaker 2: Just falling out of the sky outside of thing that's
just coming from Ghulf South here.
Speaker 3: Would you rather vacation in Hammon or Laplace?
Speaker 7: I've never really been to either of those places. I
don't know.

you know I can go to Southeastern.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 3: Laplace sucks, sucks.
Speaker 4: Haim at least got we got good listeners.
Speaker 3: I'm not a Laplace man. So uh.
Speaker 6: The opinions expressed but Jordan are not the opinions shared
by the rest of the TV.

New Orleans guy, We're not a big fan of the plot.
So I'm a little different everybody. I'm not a big
fan of.
Speaker 2: The Going back to your first question, Alandra, Yeah, Steven
inside the bout four chat said I'm a dentist.

somebody else.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Gross. Yeah, I don't love it. Yeah, that is gross.
I'll take the shoe all day long.
Speaker 7: I think I will too.
Speaker 3: At flavor, Yeah, a little kick to it. You're not
gonna eat my food, spit it on my plate?
Speaker 8: All right.
Speaker 3: Let's see where your fandom is.

Speaker 6: I create my own atmosphere in my house, eating that
free food, eating whatever I want for an entire month.
Speaker 8: I'm playing neck because there's no rules on that in
my house.
Speaker 2: Well, if you make it to the championship, they usually
play neck to because they're like why not.
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 8: I'm with the line you.
Speaker 3: I think I'm there for the vibes.
Speaker 7: I'm there for the vibes.
Speaker 8: No, not a month.
Speaker 5: Some of us haven't experienced a championship l s U

Speaker 8: You know I can't have those P B and J.
Speaker 7: Hey, I don't love jelly, But I say.
Speaker 6: Anything about uncrustable, I think I'm at the crib.
Speaker 3: They had that version. Not a PP and J guy.
Speaker 8: Not gonna lie, guys, I'm not either.
Speaker 4: Growing up I was growing up, I was the blooney guy.
Speaker 2: I think I actually could eat and every day and
never get tired of him.
Speaker 3: I just never was a PP and J guy.
Speaker 6: And I don't respect this about myself, as I didn't
like pp and J's growing up. Either I didn't, I'll
eat him now like it's fine. I would have him
at halftime. And like when I was playing, like I didn't.
I wouldn't sitting there like, oh it's so good.
Speaker 10: I was like, man, I'm just trying to get like
the good girl cheese cheesey cool like the cheese grow cheese,
bloney sandwich, baloney sandwich.
Speaker 3: Oh boy, that's the struggle.
Speaker 2: Mill like.
Speaker 8: Dipped into like a good tomato soup.
Speaker 5: I never really ate pep and I mean I would
because I don't like jelly. But I would eat peanut
butter sandwiches. But i'd get the crunchy.
Speaker 3: Peanut peanut crunchy guy. I'll take you either, okayooth crunch
or whatever.
Speaker 2: I'll take strawberry jelly, I'll take grape jelly, I'll take
apple jelly.
Speaker 3: I'll take any jelly. I love some strawberry jelly.
Speaker 6: Another another weird thing about myself I didn't respect was
I didn't. I didn't really like spaghetti and meatballs either.
Speaker 7: Drawing up really that's kind.
Speaker 6: Of a weird thing. It's a weird thing. I liked
a lot of things. Chicken strip I know, I like it.
Speaker 2: I liked a lot of things, but I'm just never.
Speaker 6: Chicken strip I didn't say every restaurant I said as
a child chicken strips. As a child, I didn't want
in chelas. I wanted chicken strips, okay, But like I
never liked spagetti meballs, and I like it now. Like
and I just told you, I preface it was that
I didn't respect I don't respect the spell itself.
Speaker 8: I just never said, like, m.
Speaker 3: Ball of meat.
Speaker 8: The ball of meat sounds the ball just didn't sound.
Speaker 3: Good to me.
Speaker 4: We're the same, I feel the same way. I didn't
like spaghetti growing up. Well one because my mom would
make spaghetti. You're eating that for about four five days,
like every day. Yeah no, no, I don't know. That's
what made me not like it. Man, and left over
spaghetti even got me. Like even even cold spaghetti's pretty good.
I see now I could eat some spaghetti, but as
a kid growing up, because like I said, your mom
make that spaghetti on like a Tuesday. Bro, you're eating
that spaghetti on Friday. It's like, all right, I'm tired
of eating spaghetti. So it just it got old. Real
faster hamburger helper. I killed some Hamburger help that's when.
Speaker 3: You're balling on a budget. We had that growing out

Speaker 4: I want to tuna guy, I want to tuna guy, get.
Speaker 8: That tuna helper. Come on.

Speaker 2: This is the gods sonest truth there? Useduld be that
brew Boxers on Nicholson. Yeah, on Sundays after a big win,
like we would treat our like that was a splurge,
was to go have brew Bockers after, like after we
got done Sunday with stretch and stride. That was a
big time splurge, Like, hey, we might got to be
conscious the rest of the week, but brew Boker's about
to go down.
Speaker 3: Oh really, I meant at ingas yep. Oh gosh, yeah.
I still do eat that almost once a week.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, because dude, my scholarship check didn't pay for it.
Barely covered half the rent barely. Our rent was nine

Boujo's Electrical dot Com.
Speaker 8: All right.
Speaker 2: As we continue breaking down what we saw from week
one in college football, we're moving on to week two.
You've got the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs coming to town. They
did open up their season with a victory over Southeastern
and it was not the uh it's not.
Speaker 3: The cleanest game.
Speaker 2: Going back and watching some of that game last night, now,
they did end up pulling away. They won twenty four
to nothing at halftime though the score was three to nothing.
Speaker 3: Louisiana tack. I mean, it was what we call.
Speaker 2: A rock fight, and not a beautiful rock fight like
we've had. Not one of those defensive battles just a
very clunky game. I mean, in fact, when you look
at the stats of the game, Southeastern actually had more
first downs than louisianat tack it was eighteen to fourteen.
On third down Southeastern was kind of good. They were
nine of eighteen. Louisiana Tech was only three to ten
total yards in this game. Southeastern actually had more total
yards two seventy three to two sixty three passing yards.
Southeastern only threw for one forty five Tech throws for
one hundred and thirty total passing yards. Now, one of
the differences in the game turnovers. Southeastern had three, Louisian
Tach had none. Southeastern had seven penalties, Louisian Tech had five.
Even rush in the football yards per rush for Southeastern
two point nine Louisian Tech four point two. Time of
possession thirty two twenty seven in favor of the Bulldogs.
Speaker 3: It was an ugly tape.
Speaker 2: Uh, there was a lot of mistakes being made by
both teams. Louisiana Tech right now, gosh watching that tape
and this is gonna sound awful. They set the forward
pass back forty years, trying to get through some of
the concepts that they had and yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Mean it was it was just not good.
Speaker 2: Set back up forty the forward pass nineteen eighty five
is what it looked like I was watching. Uh So, look,
Louisiana Tech has certainly had teams in the past that
has had really good players and actually maybe you know,
one of their best players in the history of tim
Ortaze on LSU staff. They've had Troy Edwards. They looked
they I could go across the board. They've had great
players going back to Terry Bradshall and we don't have
to do that. Y'all know the history of Louisiana Tech.
Uh they're not in the Golden Age right now. They're
trying to find their way there. I mean, look, they've
you know, Derek Dooley had some great times there, Sonny
Dyke's had some good times there. Skip Holtz has some
great times there. But the last couple of years it's
really really changed directions and not in a good way.
It's going downhill and it's going downhill fast. And so
I'm not going to sit here and lie to you.
This is a bad football team coming into town, and
you should have every advantage in every way in this game.
But that does not mean that you should take your
foot off the pedal. You should have the same intensity
you had there in Clemson South Carolina. Look, if you
want to impose your will, you can't take weeks off.
Speaker 3: You got to do it every single week. This is
the home opener.
Speaker 2: This is the first time that a lot of these
guys that came here for a reason are going to
get a chance to play in the Tiger Stadium. And
so what are we watching for in these games? Like
we always look key's to victory, and what do we
I just want to see the same intensity. I just
want to see the same flying eleven meat heads out
there on defense, playing with bad intentions. And look, if
you get to a point where you're subbing out and
here come the twos, that's great. But when you're in there,
just look like you looked last week. And then offensively
kind of the same thing. Like what we saw in
the second half. Man, it was a masterclass of out
coaching the Clemson Tigers. Keep that same energy up all
throughout the game, because I'm not going to sit here
and you know, give you individual matchups.
Speaker 3: You got to go out there and win.
Speaker 2: For me, my key, My goal for this game is
to look like you had the same energy and the
same attention to detail that you had last Saturday, And
it's hard.
Speaker 6: The attention to detail is what I would look for.
Like the execution. Make the players you're supposed to take
care of business. Make this look like a preseason NFL
football game. Get your starters out as fast as you
can because you execute. But like to say that what
you want to see is the same intensity, You're not
going to see the same intensity.
Speaker 3: You can try, you.
Speaker 6: Can talk, you can talk about it, You're not going
to see the same intensity. And that is nobody's fault.
It's human nature. You can try all you want, but
you just you just it's just not gonna happen. It
is impossible to get the juice to get the chili
that hot that you're gonna go out there with the
same intensity. Because we don't like these games as former
players and we don't like these games. It's like, you know,
it's such a letdown from from week one to go
into week two, but you certainly don't like these games
as players. They're not looking forward to it, but you
still have a job to do. It is still the
next team on the schedule. Week two the most important
week of the year, most important game is the next one.
So you got to go out there and what you
want to see is execution. Improvement on some of the
things that you didn't do so well in the first
the first week. Improve on some of that technique, get better,
just get more reps. It's about getting reps against a
team with another color helmet, another color jersey, and you
just want to see execution.
Speaker 8: You just don't want to see sloppy stuff.
Speaker 6: You don't want like the mental focus to not be
there to where there's you know, a bunch of pre
snap penalties, line it up incorrectly, having a bunch of
mental airs and stuff like that. Go out there, look sharp.
I get it. The intensity is probably not going to
be there like it was. But from an execution standpoint,
do what you gotta do. Because it's not you don't
really play in the same league. Like Jake just laid out,
it's not a great team. We hope they are. We're
a Louisiana team. We want to cheer for thee We
want them to get better, we want to get them
to where they have been in the past.
Speaker 8: But right now it's just not it. So go take
care of business, get the twos.
Speaker 2: In Alandra Jordan, what do you want to see this
weekend from the LSU Tigers? Anything stand out specifically?
Speaker 5: So that was kind of my thing too, is coming
into this game is obviously Louisiana Tech is not the
same caliber as LSU right now, So that was mine, like,
can you keep your head on straight and come off
this big win that you had in week one and
not get humbled by your like other state school here
like Louisiana Tech.
Speaker 7: I mean, what was it Troy back in seventy? Was
it seventeen? I mean, we don't want to read you
of that.
Speaker 5: So my biggest thing is, yeah, you looked great versus Clemson,
and yeah, go out there and pose your will and
make sure that you don't let up and it'll kind
of because remember I was kind of against the one
o thing whenever they were during the offseason and stuff
like that, Like I was like, I don't know if
we should, But now I kind of get it, and
I want to see if that keeps going into the
Louisiana Tech game. I know they're still doing it and
they're like, okay, one o versus Louisiana Tech. But I
just want to see that mindset continue on even against them.
Speaker 8: So it's a leadership game.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you have to have strong leaders to go to
games like this because there's only so much Like Brian
Kelly's gonna say all the right things of the team,
and he's gonna hpe him up as much as he can.
But at the end of the day, it's like these
types of games are your brother's next to you in
the locker room, like, right, the people, the senior leaders,
the leadership on the team, they can't accept anything less
than somebody's best. Where the intensity might not be there,
it's the execution and the attention to detail. Let's spend
the same amount of hours in the film room, Let's
spend the same amount of hours in the weight room,
and probably like let's get everything out of it, let's
do everything the right way. Let's then prepare yourself for
the weeks to come.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the thing that I think is important is who
you have in week three two. So you don't want
this high to a dip, right and try to come
back up against Florida. Just look and like Matt said,
you can try like the intensity obviously, right, but if
you but if you just continue on and you take
care of business, then you springboard into arrival coming to
your stadium in week number three. I just don't think
you want the peaks and valleys like you want to
keep it consistent.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we don't want to repeat of Nichols last year,
you know where you don't want to repeat it at
So my biggest takeaway would have to be, you know,
just come in handle bitiness.
Speaker 3: You're a better team.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 4: I agree with Matt whole Harley is gonna be hard
to you know, juice it up how it's gonna because
you know you're playing. They they're not stupid, they know
what's going on with lot, Like, they're not gonna be
like you know, you say to do the coach speak,
But I think the main thing go in there, put
your foot on the neck, and then, like you said,
get the get the young guys in there. Let everybody
get some experience. You know, guys that are gonna red shirt,
you know, get to play four games. You know, get
him in there. So you know, I want to see
Harlan Barry like, this is the game where I want
to see the young guys, you know, to get up
comfortably and then get the young guys in there. Let's
see what they got.
Speaker 2: Right there with you, I don't need to see. Look,
at some point you gotta get some of the stats
for for highest one. You know, see what Colin Hurley like.
See you're not getting Mie van Bier, MIKEA. Van Buren,
Michael Varon Barry, you know, get him in a game.
You know Ashton Stamps didn't play against against Clemson.
Speaker 3: Get him in the game. You know, that's what I
want to see, you know, get up. Let's see what
these guys got.

Speaker 3: Like I was like outside of a victory because uh.
Speaker 6: They're gonna Wint's gonna win this week.
Speaker 4: I'm not too opposed to winning. I'll be okay, I
wouldn't be like I want to.
Speaker 7: See Kyler Murray not it.
Speaker 2: I do want to see Spencer Rattler kind of go off.
That'd be nice and just kind of give a big
like I got two words for you, like at the
end of.
Speaker 7: The day, quiet the haters aka Nick Underhill.
Speaker 3: Aka everybody covers a team. It ain't just our boy, Nick.
Speaker 2: Everybody, Oh, tell me about Spencer Rattler in week one
coming up?
Speaker 6: Well, Tyler Shuck is just a matter of time, Just
a matter of time, Tyler shuk.
Speaker 2: I this has been nothing against Tyler Shuck because Tyler
Shuck has been great since he got drafted.
Speaker 3: But I am rooting hard for Spencer Ratland me too,
Like I.
Speaker 2: Want him to succeed so bad, and not just because
he's playing for the Saints. I just his story getting
to know him a little bit over the last couple
of years. Uh, the way that he is, He's humbled himself.
He has been a great teammate. He has been somebody
that plays with a lot of confidence, but not I'm
too cocky way, Like I just I can root for
him and his story and the way that he's gotten
to this point to be a starting quarterback in the NFL.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, seeing him first time seeing
Spencer Rayler was on QB one, so started off on
a wrong for him. Yeah, So, you know, seeing the
ups and downs of his career, you know, Caleb Williams
coming in and taking his job in Oklahoma, him having
to go to South Carolina and then getting up leading
up until this point, you can not only not root
for him, but at the same time, it's like, if
the Saints win five games this year, are we gonna
keep Rattler around next year?
Speaker 3: You know?
Speaker 4: You know, at a certain point it's like I feel
like the clock is ticking on him and shuck him
and shuck like I believe, if you ask me, I
think the Saints are in their Davis Mill era for
the before the Texas got CJ.
Speaker 3: Stroud.
Speaker 4: You know, we're gonna keep Davis Mills around for you know,
two years. See, you know we're gonna We're not.
Speaker 3: Gonna be good.
Speaker 4: We're gonna see what we're the type of picks were
good and where we end up. But I just think
that that's the era of the Saints are in right now.
I don't really think that you have the starting quarterback
of the team in twenty thirty on this roster right now.
Speaker 3: No, I don't. I don't believe that so long. That's
a long way. But it's like you can't see that
with a telescope.
Speaker 4: But it's like, you know, charges Herbert, I can see
Herbert being your starting quarterback at twenty thirty.
Speaker 2: I don't know that that guy's I mean yeah, I
mean there's what how many teams have their guy for
twenty thirty right now?
Speaker 3: Eight? That is that too high?
Speaker 8: It seems like a lot. I mean.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean especially when you're talking about though, But
he's a younger second rate.
Speaker 7: Roster that the Saints are going to have eight wins?
No sorry, sorry sorry sorry?
Speaker 2: I said, how many teams right now can think of
who their quarterback is going to be in twenty third?
Speaker 3: Oh probably eight? I think that The thing though, tweaking, No,
he's mad.
Speaker 6: Really, what I was like, the thing I'm looking for
the most is, of course, besides the quarterback play, is
really seeing this new Kellen Moore offense in action. So
we had our discussion with Kellimore last week and he
kind of just definitely like admitted, just like every coach does,
every offense, like everything is not installed for preseason. What
you see is pretty basic vanilla stuff trying to get
the balls, some guy's hand, do some basic stuff, basic
football plays. But it's not the You don't get the
entire picture of what this offense is going to be,
how the game management's going to be, how he is
as a head coach. Like, so it's it's his baby,
this is his like, no qualms about this is his offense.
He has installed it from all this amalgamation of like
all the things, all the offenses and offensive philosophies and
great minds that he's been around I'm so interested to
see how that is going to translate into Week one
Season one of what Kello, because I believe that he
is a very good football mind, a very good football coach.
He was a really great player and has been a
good quarterback coach, offensive coordinator. Now he gets a shot.
So what is that offense going to look like? Excited
to see that in action and let them cut it loose?
Speaker 8: And I get it. I know that there's.
Speaker 6: There's some roster issues, there's some talent discrepancies here and there,
but like it's still the NFL. These are NFL professional
football players. They will win games. I'm sorry. If you
want them to go Ohn seventeen, it ain't gonna happen.
And I think they'll win this weekend, playing at home
Week one, they got a lot of juice. Arizona doesn't
really know what to expect right there. They're not They
don't have a book of tape on what an exact
Kelling Moore offense is going to be or a head
coach run or Kelling Moore team is going to be
all about.
Speaker 8: So there's not a lot to go on that.
Speaker 6: So if they're going to get some I say, get
them early and they got a shot at it Arizona.
They got talent. Of course, Kler Murray's there, He's ultra talented.
But beaters not world beaters. It's a winnable game, especially
at home Week one, go out, shut the haters up.
Spencer will be juiced, the dome will be juiced, and
it should be. Even though it's the cheapest ticket in
the NFL right now, Yeah, but they're gonna be in
there's week one. They're gonna be in there.
Speaker 8: It's still shocking to me that it's the cheapest ticket.
Speaker 2: And I'll say this too, it's going down a dollar
thirty six now it was thirty seven.
Speaker 4: One of the main things I do want to see
the most is like what you're going on the mat
about is like what's the identity of this team or
what the identity of this team will be? Like you know,
certain the better teams in the league, you know Ravens
or the Eagles, Like, you know, they're gonna be smashed
my football. They will come out to go and run
the ball. Like what it exactly is his identity of
the team's gonna look like That's one thing I will
be looking for because you know, the team's gonna take
on the identity of the coach. We don't know what
Kella Moore, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Here's a good thing about Keller Moore though, and I'll
give him an added boy for this, and we talked
about it when we had him on.
Speaker 3: He will look at what his talent is and create
the identity.
Speaker 2: So good think about Okay, So he's had Dak Prescott,
he's had Justin Herbert, he's had Jalen Hurts. All three
of those offenses have been completely different because he's looked
at his talent and said, Okay, I need to form
the offense around what I have. So with that being known,
us having that knowledge, I think you're going to have
an offense that is built around number forty one. I
think Ak is going That's why I said my bold prediction.
He's going to have his first thousand yard season. I
think he is going to be the driving force in
the entire offense and then you're gonna ask Spencer to
go make a handful of plays every single game.
Speaker 3: Okay, I think it is going to be built around him.
Speaker 2: And like I said, Kellen's done a great job in
his pass of building around certain players.
Speaker 3: And certain skill sets.
Speaker 2: And if I had to guess, I think it's going
to be built around AKA in the passing game, end
the running game.
Speaker 6: And I think that a thousand yards rushing it will
be tough to it because I do think teams are
going to make you beat them with the young quarterbacks.
They're going to try to take there. But it won't
be unheard of to have over fifteen hundred yard all purpose.
Speaker 8: Certainly.
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna be checked on Charlie for sure.
That's fine.
Speaker 8: Yeah, and that's great if you get creative of that.
Speaker 6: Also, I mean you got you got playmakers, you got
speed out there, get the ball in your playmaker, Sandry.
Speaker 2: You hit, look, you hit two deep play heavy play
action shots down the field. Everybody backs up and it
opens up running lanes. And you've got the perfect receivers
I think to be able to go do that.
Speaker 8: You got we're talking ourselves back a Landra.
Speaker 3: It ain't just the Mads, baby, it ain't just the Meds.
Speaker 6: Honestly, let's go through the room. Let's pick a realistic
wind total for the Saints. This is should this be turn.
Speaker 7: You could turnover chain it. But Taylor is not here
so all right, I'm.
Speaker 2: Saying I don't even necessarily believe this, but if it's
going to give me the chain, I can blame CT
on this.
Speaker 3: I am going to go eight to nine for.
Speaker 8: Why not?
Speaker 2: Nine?
Speaker 3: Rout is your future? Why not he's your future. Then
it's just supposed to be bold.
Speaker 8: He not.
Speaker 7: That's that's it's supposed to be bold.
Speaker 9: Bold.
Speaker 7: Oh man, that was going realistic.
Speaker 3: That's a good year to realistic.
Speaker 2: I do think they're gonna win six games, yeah, bold,
I think they can find the way to eight.
Speaker 4: I'm sitting at between five and four, Like five.
Speaker 3: Wins four games, my god.
Speaker 4: I think you'll split with Atlanta, You'll split with the Carolina.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 4: I think the Bucks kind of run away with the division.
I just don't really the Saints will.
Speaker 3: There gonna have Tolant this year.
Speaker 4: They'll catch you later in the year. Like they're one
of those teams that later down the line are gonna
knock somebody can say knock them out the playoffs, but
like ruin their playoffs, seating a little bit like one
of those scens like you're sleeping on.
Speaker 6: You're gonna have those moments where they're gonna they're gonna
lose three, four, five straight. Then they might go, I'm
gonna just to be different, say being different with I'm
gonna go seven, okay, just because I'm trying.
Speaker 8: I'm trying trying to be a fan.
Speaker 2: You'll have We're we're talking about how crazy we are
picking them and have a losing record.
Speaker 4: Still, you're right, that's the bull tape bull take losing record,
not even not even sniffing five hundred.
Speaker 7: So many problems at every position of your in your you.
Speaker 8: Gotta have some things go your way to get the
seven wins. You gotta have a lot go your way.
You got injuries, you gotta you gotta avoid.
Speaker 7: The defense is gonna give us five wins?
Speaker 6: Are we saying they gotta have luck to have a
losing two games under man because we are saying.
Speaker 5: We're a.
Speaker 4: But if he does get seven eight wins, you're one
with Keller Moore. I think that's a w like that's
a win, but this team and his lost right now, Marshal, Yeah, yeah,
what I would be a believe I'm the biggest Keller
Moore fan. At that point, it's gotta turn turn water
and wine in the water something like that.
Speaker 3: Do that unless you can put my High in it.
Drink my High dot com the hydrated.
Speaker 2: Hey, actually, yesterday when I was down bad before I
got my meds helped me out a little bit. It does,
it does, indeed do that.
Speaker 3: Went a little the orange flavor zero zero.

not good to drink my High dot com or Rouses.
Speaker 5: Or Rouses true this how about you go see Jake
and Matt at Rouses and while you're there you get

when we were at Rouses. Pretty much like every time
I go, it's almost like sold out, like people you
get them by their hot Wait, they're stalking those things up,
like did.
Speaker 3: You buy them or did you steal them.

Speaker 2: All right, we'll take our last break of the show,
wrap it up with ask the Bench. When we come
back on one of four five ESPN betters off the bench,
all right, go to go Tommy's dot com. That's g
e Aux Tommy's with the y dot com. Once you

tab and also like other services, right, something we don't
talk a lot about, but they can help you out.
You know, we talk gutters sometimes. I mean, just go
check out their website see what they can do for you.
One of the things that I always encourage you to, like,

custom door that you've been thinking about our custom window
that man, everybody tells me they can't do that. Well,
Tommy and the team can do it. Because I've had
them out, they've had that conversation with me, they can
have it with you. Go to go Tommy's dot com.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Tommy's Windows side, his doors. We know if you
have a project going on. You're gonna get a couple
of different prices and quotes. Make sure that Tommy is
one of it so they can prove to you that

Speaker 3: Opening up the Champagne small House, Come on, till it up.
Speaker 1: And locked in on LSU Football twenty four to seven.
You're listening to Off the Bench.
Speaker 9: Back yourself, foot my home to me where you have
been put yourself something cool?
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back in OTV and you know where
I live.
Speaker 1: You know what we.
Speaker 3: Sometimes you gotta stay.
Speaker 6: Hey, that's that ain't gonna line up this weekend.
Speaker 8: The real one. It's our house.
Speaker 2: Gotta trash rangers dot com. You need to roll off dumpster,
three different sizes to choose from. Get in contact with them,
let him know how big your project is. They're gonna
make sure you have the right sized dumpster on your project.
And if you don't know exactly, maybe you got a
lot more trash than you thought. They coud come empty
that dumpster and bring it right back.
Speaker 3: Trash rangers dot com. Trash rangers dot com. That's a
funny comment in minstream man.
Speaker 2: All right, uh as the bench They talked a lot
about Kaden Durham's patients running the ball FB one thoughts
on his timing.
Speaker 3: I thought Kaden was great.
Speaker 2: Uh, seventeen carries right at seventy five yards. That's exactly
what LSU needs from him this year and he's gonna
have games where he has bigger moments. But man, you
saw the difference when he was healthy compared to last year.
He was fighting through that foot injury that he had
and he was gritty as hell last year. Finished the year,
but man, I thought he had a big, big day.
I mean even the first carry he got, they had
him down in the backfield and he somehow stays up
and hits a big play.
Speaker 3: So explosive runs all over the place for Kaden Durham.
Speaker 6: Yeah, he had great vision. Patients reading blockers well, they
and else You did a lot of things where they
were like pulling the tight end around, like looping and
tight end around or pulling somebody and you really and
they're they're blocking one on one with like leaving somebody free.
So the line of like blocked down and leaving in
free and it's tough to read like a loop and
blocker like that.
Speaker 3: He did a really good job, very exciting.
Speaker 2: Ass the bench. What about the fan tailgate? We got promise,
I'm still trying to work on that. I'm trying to
find the location, like if.
Speaker 3: We did it that Elite.
Speaker 2: The problem is because I dug into it is the
parking and the roads being closed and how far it
is away. So we're actually doing our show from Pro
dream tomorrow and so I'm gonna have a conversation with him.
Maybe we can do a tailgate there before a game
since it's in that shopping center with the og walk on.
So I did not forget about y'all still got to
figure it out. By the way, we will be doing
our show every home game Thursday from Pro Dreams, so
that starts tomorrow Friday.
