1
00:00:00,880 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: I'll start Toyota Presents off the Bench with Jacob Hester

2
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:05,080
and Matt Flynn.

3
00:00:04,759 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 2: Asday Hester and Hester.

4
00:00:07,719 --> 00:00:12,359
Speaker 1: From carrying each other to a natty to carrying each other.

5
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,560
Speaker 2: On the air, control the.

6
00:00:17,679 --> 00:00:20,559
Speaker 1: Live from the Mercedes Benz of Baton Rouge studio.

7
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:51,759
Speaker 2: It's off the bench, all right, welcome back.

8
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 3: Here, hour number three of ot B. It's gotta feel

9
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:58,880
it's going to continue to be the conversation.

10
00:00:59,079 --> 00:01:01,119
Speaker 4: It is what it is. It's the biggest news out there.

11
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 3: SEC going to nine games, three permanent opponents, the other

12
00:01:04,439 --> 00:01:08,120
six are going to rotate. We have continued to try

13
00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:11,000
hearing the breaks to put together our final OTB stands

14
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,120
on the three teams, We're still not there.

15
00:01:13,159 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 4: We'll get there eventually.

16
00:01:14,159 --> 00:01:17,159
Speaker 3: But and this also like, it's not like we keep

17
00:01:17,239 --> 00:01:19,680
using Mississippi State, Kentucky Vandy because that's the one I've

18
00:01:19,719 --> 00:01:22,120
seen the most out there of Hey, let's play the

19
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,599
three easy. It's now that can also rotate. Vanderbilt certainly

20
00:01:24,599 --> 00:01:26,959
wouldn't have been in the bottom three a year ago.

21
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,760
Those years, Kentucky would not have been in the bottom three.

22
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,200
I mean, Kentucky has won ten games in the last

23
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,359
couple of years. Remember going to Kentucky was at twenty

24
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:40,200
twenty one, and Kentucky put the SmackDown on LSU.

25
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,239
Speaker 4: So like that's not always going to be the case.

26
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,439
Speaker 3: But when I say those teams, it's not even that conversation,

27
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,359
it's those teams don't They don't really do any They

28
00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:50,280
don't really move the needle for you, like no matter

29
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,000
how good or how bad they are. Right now, currently

30
00:01:53,519 --> 00:01:56,560
we're talking about Oklahoma, like the SEC kind of showed

31
00:01:56,599 --> 00:02:00,439
you that they want to make that a thing. Okay,

32
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,760
maybe it does happen, Maybe there's something there. They've played

33
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,719
for a national championship in three I've had some big games,

34
00:02:06,719 --> 00:02:09,479
they played in a College Football Playoffs semi final. But

35
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,759
it's like, right now, even that game in Oklahoma is

36
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,120
one of, if not the most successful college football programs

37
00:02:15,159 --> 00:02:18,879
like in the totality history of college football. But it's like,

38
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,240
still don't have those memories yet, you don't have those

39
00:02:22,479 --> 00:02:24,840
moments even though you've played them for a national championship.

40
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,639
And so it's not just picking on those three schools.

41
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,919
The schools that we're talking about right those are teams

42
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,360
that you've had hate for, you have memories for, you

43
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,759
have core memories you have moments that immediately come to

44
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:41,280
your brain. I mean growing up watching LSU touchdown Tommy

45
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,759
Banks in nineteen ninety seven, Like I remember exactly where

46
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,039
I was for that moment, like when he scored and

47
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,879
being in the Sports Illustrated, I thought the coolest person

48
00:02:50,879 --> 00:02:51,280
in the world.

49
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:53,159
Speaker 4: Kind of still do. Kevin Falk.

50
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 3: Kemp Falk was the coolest person in the world when

51
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,560
I watched him in the Independence Ball. It's like, there

52
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,960
is not a cooler person right now in this world

53
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,000
than Kevin Falk, right, and like some of those moments

54
00:03:04,039 --> 00:03:05,439
that you watch him against Florida.

55
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,039
Speaker 4: So that's what we're talking about.

56
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 3: It's not just what they are on the field, because again,

57
00:03:10,039 --> 00:03:12,360
the three teams that everybody's talking about, they've had moments

58
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,360
where they've not been the three worst teams in the SEC.

59
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,120
It's the teams that you've got this history with of

60
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,960
bad blood, of great games, of you know, players from

61
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,199
the other team that you can just you say their

62
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,479
name and it creates this motion like, man, God, Brandon Spikes,

63
00:03:30,479 --> 00:03:32,560
that's son of a gun man. I can't you know,

64
00:03:32,719 --> 00:03:34,159
Like That's what I'm talking about, And you just don't

65
00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:36,240
have that with those other teams, and so that's what

66
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,520
we're trying to come up with, the three teams that

67
00:03:38,599 --> 00:03:42,240
create those emotions, because that's what you want every single

68
00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:43,520
year on your schedule.

69
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 5: At the end of the day, it's probably like a

70
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,120
it's probably a short term situation anyway, when we think

71
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,400
about the totality of college football, I mean, whether it's

72
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,800
five years, ten years, whatever it is, like cause you

73
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,120
would think eventually SEC is going to add two more teams,

74
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,280
for more teams, six more teams as these mega conferences

75
00:04:01,319 --> 00:04:03,719
start to expand, you would think that that's probably the

76
00:04:03,719 --> 00:04:07,280
way that things will go. So they'll have to re

77
00:04:07,319 --> 00:04:10,039
align the your all these teams again at some point.

78
00:04:10,199 --> 00:04:12,400
So I mean we're probably not talking about the next

79
00:04:12,479 --> 00:04:15,800
thirty year opponents either. And with nine games, I mean

80
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,000
you are getting a spattering of everybody. So even if

81
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,480
you know what the games don't line up exactly how

82
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,319
you want it to or how you think they should,

83
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,959
I mean you're still going to get everybody. What was

84
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:29,959
the what was the breakdown again of how they're going

85
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,360
to schedule home and aways for your the non three

86
00:04:33,399 --> 00:04:36,480
teams that you're playing every single year, you're playing every

87
00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:39,800
everybody will play at every stadium, right, if you're a

88
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:45,040
freshman play, Yeah, four years, you'll be at every stadium.

89
00:04:45,439 --> 00:04:47,120
That's a that's a beauty about how it should be.

90
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,600
That's exactly how it should be. That's the beauty of adding.

91
00:04:49,879 --> 00:04:51,560
I love that they're adding the next game. I know

92
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:55,120
we can debate who and why and you know, whatever

93
00:04:55,199 --> 00:04:57,680
it is. But like the fact that we're going to

94
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,680
nine SEC games.

95
00:05:00,399 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 4: I love it. I love it.

96
00:05:02,319 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know we had we had the eight, but

97
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,680
it eliminates one other game. And hopefully they keep the

98
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,879
mandate that you do have to have a power powerful

99
00:05:09,959 --> 00:05:12,959
or powerful whatever it is. I don't know, is it what?

100
00:05:12,959 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 4: What is it? What? How does it read? Right now

101
00:05:14,959 --> 00:05:17,519
you have to play power four, you have to play

102
00:05:17,519 --> 00:05:19,279
at least one powerful in conference theme.

103
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, hopefully they keep that because those those games are

104
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,199
amazing too. Like the fact that we are going out

105
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:26,879
there and playing at Clemson home in a way, which

106
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:29,040
is which is fantastic. So I want I want to

107
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,920
see those games, but I'd like to see everybody. Everybody

108
00:05:31,959 --> 00:05:34,120
do that, uh tiboeau, I I do.

109
00:05:34,759 --> 00:05:36,879
Speaker 3: I do see your point, I understand it, but I

110
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,399
want them every year, he said, Just I just want

111
00:05:38,439 --> 00:05:40,240
to point out that just because a team isn't your

112
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,319
permanent opponent doesn't mean you'll never play that again.

113
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 4: I know that. I know that, but I want to

114
00:05:43,759 --> 00:05:46,240
play them every year. To a point, play them every

115
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:46,800
single year.

116
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 3: Want every player's ever played for Florida to nobody else

117
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:54,279
who's all about Yeah, and certainly in the year, in

118
00:05:54,319 --> 00:05:56,800
the time that we're in of one year rentals.

119
00:05:57,199 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 4: I want everybody every year, every single year. I get it.

120
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:02,160
I know you're gonna be in a rotation, I get it.

121
00:06:04,079 --> 00:06:04,959
I just want them every year.

122
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,399
Speaker 5: I want to be able to punch him in the

123
00:06:06,439 --> 00:06:08,720
face every single year. And of course I'm a quarterback,

124
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,279
so that's metaphorically speaking. You want somebody else to punch

125
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,439
him in the punch him the face. Why I throw

126
00:06:13,439 --> 00:06:18,199
it passes, it's obviously I don't you know. I'm not

127
00:06:18,199 --> 00:06:21,000
getting in the fray. I'm not going to get in

128
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,959
the fight and smoke. But I'll talk to you know

129
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,639
what to him.

130
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 6: But you're the hold me back guy.

131
00:06:30,759 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 4: Hold me back exactly like, aren't you'll hold me back?

132
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:40,160
I don't want to do this. Everyone's just watching hold

133
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,759
me back? Nah, dude, you got it. Oh man, this

134
00:06:42,879 --> 00:06:48,720
is awkward. I like this from two d lad.

135
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 3: We don't have Texas on the regular season schedule this year,

136
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,839
but we will play them in Atlanta come December. You know,

137
00:06:55,759 --> 00:07:01,519
he no, you know, eventually we are going to have

138
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:05,000
to give three teams. We eight, you know, are we are?

139
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,959
We are we settling Florida and Old Miss It is

140
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:08,920
our official stance.

141
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,199
Speaker 4: I think, so.

142
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 3: Do we want to go Florida Old miss A and

143
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,920
m Florida Old Miss Alabama?

144
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,439
Speaker 4: I just think it's too big of a game. This

145
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,000
isn't what we'd rather. It's kind of what we like,

146
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,040
what we think, and what we think. I don't know.

147
00:07:26,439 --> 00:07:27,839
I think it'll be I think they'll give us.

148
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 6: Wait, this isn't what we want. This is what we

149
00:07:30,639 --> 00:07:31,639
think the SEC.

150
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,959
Speaker 4: Florida. Should we do what we want? I thought that's

151
00:07:35,959 --> 00:07:42,279
what we were doing. Then it goes Florida Bama.

152
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,639
Speaker 6: Yeah no, no, no, Florida.

153
00:07:46,399 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 4: I mean I'd rather than Ole Miss, would you would? Yeah? Yeah?

154
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:59,360
Speaker 5: Jackson Dark's good. Is like they really missed an opportunity

155
00:07:59,439 --> 00:08:02,000
last year. It's like they screwed that one up.

156
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,759
Speaker 4: Lane's got a lot to prove.

157
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,319
Speaker 7: I mean that's what we talked about when we ranked

158
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,000
them in the o TV poll though, like.

159
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:12,839
Speaker 6: Get over the hump.

160
00:08:12,879 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 7: He was handed a playoff team, not handed, but he

161
00:08:15,079 --> 00:08:16,480
had a playoff team last season.

162
00:08:16,519 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 4: Yeah we said it.

163
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,959
Speaker 3: Not now then when y'all watched him play, Yeah for

164
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:27,120
the giants'ready the best quarterback on that team, hands down.

165
00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:29,279
Speaker 4: I don't think you can.

166
00:08:29,399 --> 00:08:32,519
Speaker 3: I don't think couldn't make the playoffs with him and

167
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:33,879
that roster you had.

168
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:40,519
Speaker 8: You had Amos who went in the second dB. So

169
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,960
Chris Paul at linebacker was a really good player for you.

170
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:49,879
Speaker 5: Just for that fact, let's kick them out of our list.

171
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 4: I'm good with it.

172
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 5: Take Yeah, I mean that was I mean, and he

173
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,120
was playing college football six months ago. Seven months ago.

174
00:08:59,519 --> 00:09:01,600
It's not like it's not like he's matured and got

175
00:09:01,639 --> 00:09:03,519
become a much better quarterback in that time frame.

176
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 4: He's just that good. He's just that good.

177
00:09:07,039 --> 00:09:09,399
Speaker 6: Ole miss is seventeen and the OT people.

178
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 4: Actually had had him hiring.

179
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 6: I think I put them at seventeen, did you? I

180
00:09:16,759 --> 00:09:18,120
think so it's.

181
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 4: About where a lot of people think they got. You

182
00:09:20,399 --> 00:09:24,200
had seventeen, went sixteen fifteen. I think that, uh. I

183
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:29,039
think they running back questions too, which for.

184
00:09:29,039 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 8: Him a year ago, they couldn't run the ball a

185
00:09:30,879 --> 00:09:32,399
year ago, and they're probably less talented.

186
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,639
Speaker 4: Lane told me that, he said, we couldn't run the

187
00:09:34,639 --> 00:09:35,440
ball like we needed to.

188
00:09:35,519 --> 00:09:38,919
Speaker 3: That's why we lost against Kentucky and LSU straight up

189
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,240
didn't didn't sugarcoat it.

190
00:09:40,279 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 5: I think Ole Miss and Miami are going to be

191
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,799
similar teams this year, and I think they're going to

192
00:09:43,879 --> 00:09:47,519
realize how good their quarterbacks were last year and it's

193
00:09:47,519 --> 00:09:53,600
going to affect their win loss record pretty severely. That's

194
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,159
what I think. I think they're gonna be similar. I

195
00:09:55,159 --> 00:09:57,799
think they're going to have a pretty big step back.

196
00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:10,919
Who is the SEC Coach of the Year. I'm going

197
00:10:10,919 --> 00:10:11,840
to Eli drink Witz.

198
00:10:13,159 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 3: The coach is never going to be the coach that

199
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:18,039
goes and does what he's supposed to do.

200
00:10:18,279 --> 00:10:18,720
Speaker 6: That's true.

201
00:10:18,799 --> 00:10:21,279
Speaker 3: If that was the case, Nick Saban would have fifteen

202
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,799
SEC Coach of the Year trophies in his office.

203
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:24,399
Speaker 4: He does not.

204
00:10:25,279 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 3: It is the coach that, hey, we thought you were

205
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,320
gonna be kind of bad, turns out you were not

206
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:33,000
so bad. You're actually sort of good, and now you're

207
00:10:33,039 --> 00:10:35,200
gonna get Coach of the Year. That's what that That's

208
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,639
what that award goes to. Unless you have like a

209
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,919
year like you know coach O in twenty nineteen that

210
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,799
he got it. That's maybe the best college football team ever.

211
00:10:43,879 --> 00:10:46,360
They're gonna give you that award. But like coach Saban

212
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:47,799
had gotten to a point where it's like, you're not

213
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,039
getting this anymore, Kirby, You're not getting it anymore.

214
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 4: It's gonna be Ali.

215
00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:56,279
Speaker 8: Drinkwitz, speaking of Missouri Eli at the beginning of the week,

216
00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:58,799
said I'm close to the name of the starting QB. Yesterday

217
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,159
he came out and did the opposite. He said, Boat

218
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,559
Prabula and Sam Horn are both going to play in

219
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,759
the opener and essentially winner take all he wants to

220
00:11:06,759 --> 00:11:08,759
see him in game experience to he still didn't have

221
00:11:08,759 --> 00:11:12,960
a starting quarterback. Yeah, Now was that good or bad?

222
00:11:13,039 --> 00:11:15,120
Like you brought in Prabula to be your starter? Is

223
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,519
he underperforming? Or has Sam Horn raised? There's always two

224
00:11:18,519 --> 00:11:19,600
sides to look at it that way.

225
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,399
Speaker 4: I'm going to predict that Shane Biemer will wait the

226
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:24,960
coach of the Year.

227
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 8: I thought Shane Beamer too, but they got they got

228
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,720
a little expectations like I don't.

229
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:31,399
Speaker 4: I guess I'll go Beamer too.

230
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, but they're they're in a spot of their expectation

231
00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,120
where if they stay right where they're at right now,

232
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:37,759
then he'll probably be a Coach.

233
00:11:37,519 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 4: Of the Year.

234
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I just I believe in Sellers, and I

235
00:11:42,639 --> 00:11:45,240
think we've talked a lot about him, like if he

236
00:11:45,399 --> 00:11:49,120
is in the Heisman hunt, that means they're having a

237
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,879
really good season, and that means Shane Beamer. And again,

238
00:11:52,919 --> 00:11:54,919
I was impressed listening to him. I'm always kind of

239
00:11:54,919 --> 00:11:57,080
impressed by his interviews and the way he handles himself carrys.

240
00:11:57,399 --> 00:11:59,200
I think he looks good with the media, and I

241
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,080
think it looks presents himself in a good fashion.

242
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,519
Speaker 4: And I think they got a really good quarterback. Honestly,

243
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,480
I think Billy Napier's got a shot.

244
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,879
Speaker 8: I mean, if DJ Lagway could stay healthy, which I

245
00:12:09,919 --> 00:12:13,360
actually think his health is a big concern. I mean

246
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:16,000
we thought he was a dead man walking a year ago,

247
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,639
Like everybody thought he was gonna get fired. He actually

248
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,480
had a pretty good run there at the end of

249
00:12:20,519 --> 00:12:22,919
the year. He takes down LSU. Like, if they can

250
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:27,120
build off of that and go eating four nine and three,

251
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,600
I mean, that's that's exceeding expectations based on their schedule. Yeah,

252
00:12:30,639 --> 00:12:31,399
he almost did.

253
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,159
Speaker 5: That last year he's won, like DJ Lagway kneed to

254
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,120
it us away from not being very good.

255
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:41,399
Speaker 4: Lagway's first eleven on eleven was Tuesday. Yep. Keep in

256
00:12:41,399 --> 00:12:41,759
mind he.

257
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,919
Speaker 8: Didn't participate in spring, and then his first eleven on

258
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,240
eleven in fall was Tuesday.

259
00:12:46,279 --> 00:12:49,279
Speaker 4: You're a week from the first game. It's against Long Island.

260
00:12:49,639 --> 00:12:50,600
I mean, I get it.

261
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 5: Cope South Richard and he says it gonna be Sark

262
00:12:55,879 --> 00:12:57,000
because he's attached to man in.

263
00:12:59,279 --> 00:13:05,960
Speaker 4: These arcs. Goat Coach of the Year National.

264
00:13:09,159 --> 00:13:12,919
Speaker 5: Last year two hundred yards passing for ARC manning game one.

265
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:21,159
Speaker 4: Over right right around that two. Yeah.

266
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,960
Speaker 3: Last year it was a split SEC Coach of the

267
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,000
Year between Shane.

268
00:13:24,799 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 4: Biemer and Clark Lee. You can split that award, uh yeah,

269
00:13:28,639 --> 00:13:29,360
card and half.

270
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,919
Speaker 3: So Clark Lee won the SEC Coaches Coach of the

271
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,279
Year and Shane Biemer won the A P and USA

272
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:35,720
Today SEC Coach.

273
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,159
Speaker 4: Of the Year. That's the L S U, U s

274
00:13:37,159 --> 00:13:42,639
C situation. It is. There's only one. It's both the

275
00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:43,720
White House. I don't go to the.

276
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:45,679
Speaker 3: White House for that. But again, there's one Crystal Ball

277
00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,559
and it's some miles.

278
00:13:47,399 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 4: Up the road but right near the Mississippi River. Clark

279
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:55,440
Lee could be in this conversation too. If our boy.

280
00:13:55,399 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 7: Diego pop, Yeah, because I'm sitting here trying to think

281
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,759
who I think is gonna exceed expectations, and I don't

282
00:14:03,759 --> 00:14:06,159
know if Vanderbilt will, but Clark Lee's here's one.

283
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 3: Of the things that we have to remember, and I

284
00:14:08,039 --> 00:14:10,679
know we talked about it often. The teams that are

285
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,840
not at the top. So the teams that actually are

286
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,600
at the top Texas, Georgia and Alabama as far as

287
00:14:15,639 --> 00:14:18,279
the first three teams ranked in the SEC, we don't

288
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,480
know what we're going to get at quarterback. We don't

289
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,240
like we think we know with Arch, but we don't know.

290
00:14:23,759 --> 00:14:26,440
Can Ty Simpson be a good player?

291
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 4: Hey can be.

292
00:14:27,159 --> 00:14:30,639
Speaker 3: We don't know Ken Gunnar Stockton, same situation. But the

293
00:14:30,679 --> 00:14:34,600
thing that's going to be interesting is being healthy. So

294
00:14:34,679 --> 00:14:38,840
health is important. Obviously, Florida's got one. We certainly have

295
00:14:38,879 --> 00:14:44,559
one at LSU, Oklahoma's got one. South Carolina's got one.

296
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,799
Like those teams that are in that that tier that's

297
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,080
maybe right underneath those other teams to a lot of

298
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,879
people across the country, Well, they've got the most important

299
00:14:54,879 --> 00:15:00,480
position figured out. So the expectations that they have have

300
00:15:00,519 --> 00:15:03,240
a higher ceiling, I think because they've got that position

301
00:15:03,279 --> 00:15:06,159
figured out. Like the top teams right now, Ty Simpson

302
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,840
could go out there and be awful. Gunner Stockton can

303
00:15:08,879 --> 00:15:12,159
go out there and just be a guy, right arch

304
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,960
Manny can just be good but not great. We've seen

305
00:15:16,039 --> 00:15:18,279
the other quarterbacks. We have seen Lenora Sellers win a

306
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,159
game by himself. We have seen Garrett nus Meyer lead

307
00:15:21,279 --> 00:15:23,399
LSU versus Old Miss when it looked like they were

308
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,200
left for dead on a touchdown drive to tie the game,

309
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:30,080
first playoff, overtime, game over, get off the field, and.

310
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:30,679
Speaker 4: We know that.

311
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,799
Speaker 3: So like to me, like that's what makes those teams

312
00:15:34,799 --> 00:15:36,440
in those kind of like we're talking about, like in

313
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,480
that middle tier, because they've got the guy that can

314
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,799
go take over a game, get on a six game heater,

315
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,039
and those other teams they think they got their guy.

316
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 4: Certainly Texas does, but you just don't know. We're gonna

317
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:49,799
find out in.

318
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,919
Speaker 5: Uh eight days, we are gonna find We're gonna learn

319
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,320
a lot.

320
00:15:57,639 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 3: We're not gonna learn a lot about like some of

321
00:15:59,159 --> 00:16:01,200
these situations when you're in Long Island, but I get

322
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:01,720
it that's true.

323
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 5: Well, we're gonna learn about mister ark, when do I

324
00:16:07,279 --> 00:16:11,919
stop saying that gotta gotta try to humble.

325
00:16:13,639 --> 00:16:16,759
Speaker 3: I must say, imagine thinking we don't know what we're

326
00:16:16,759 --> 00:16:19,240
going to get from March NFL MVP this year.

327
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 6: Look at.

328
00:16:23,919 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 5: I mean the fact that there is a mock draft

329
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:32,080
for twenty twenty six that has him going number one overall.

330

five ESPN, Matton Rouge.

383
00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:34,279
Speaker 4: Let's go around the room right now.

384
00:19:35,799 --> 00:19:37,839
Speaker 3: The one thing that you want to see in the

385
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,079
final tune up the last preseason game for the New

386
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,119
Orleans Saints would be.

387
00:19:46,559 --> 00:19:48,160
Speaker 4: I'm stealing it because I want to go first.

388
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:53,839
Speaker 3: I want to see protection for whoever's playing quarterback in

389
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,519
the middle interior portion of the offensive line. I wanted

390
00:19:57,599 --> 00:20:00,519
to look like a professional football team offense of line.

391
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,519
I want the quarterback, whoever it is, to have the

392
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,400
chance and the opportunity to show what he can do

393
00:20:07,599 --> 00:20:10,400
because he has protection like he should in a National

394
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,759
Football League game. I want the offensive line to also

395
00:20:13,839 --> 00:20:16,319
open up holes for the running back, right I mean,

396
00:20:16,559 --> 00:20:18,640
reports are the Saints are looking to trade for a

397
00:20:18,759 --> 00:20:21,160
running back. I think you actually have a good running

398
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:25,559
back room. The problem is you don't have spaces opened

399
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,519
up for any of the running backs, and so I

400
00:20:28,599 --> 00:20:31,000
don't think you have a running back problem. I think

401
00:20:31,039 --> 00:20:35,880
you have an offensive line interior offensive line problem right now.

402
00:20:36,039 --> 00:20:38,599
Hopefully with Eric McCoy in there, it shores everything up.

403
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,319
I think he is one of the best centers in

404
00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:41,720
the National Football League.

405
00:20:42,319 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 4: I need to see that. I want to see it.

406
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 3: I need to see these quarterbacks with an actual NFL

407
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,079
pocket and with a chance.

408
00:20:50,599 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 5: I want to see a running game. The best way

409
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:59,880
to help a young quarterback out is the very capable

410
00:21:00,039 --> 00:21:02,839
in the running game be aggressive with it. I want

411
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,039
to see run blocking. I want to see them pushing

412
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,640
guys around. I don't know if it's gonna happen, but

413
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:10,799
that's what I'd like to see. And again, I don't

414
00:21:10,799 --> 00:21:14,119
think quarterback has been the issue in the preseason games

415
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,000
on offense leading to this point, we've seen the quarterbacks

416
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,079
make reads. We've seen them both make throws. We've seen

417
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:22,839
them do good things. Now, whether they become really great

418
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:24,920
quarterbacks is all going to come down to the fourth

419
00:21:25,039 --> 00:21:28,359
quarter of many games, and that's where good quarterbacks separate

420
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:29,559
themselves in the fourth quarter.

421
00:21:29,759 --> 00:21:31,559
Speaker 4: We don't know what's going to happen in that situation

422
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,440
until you get to the regular season.

423
00:21:33,759 --> 00:21:37,119
Speaker 5: But control the line of scrimmage from a running game standpoint,

424
00:21:37,519 --> 00:21:39,400
let the play action speak for itself.

425
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 4: That is the best way to help a young quarterback.

426
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,640
I don't know if Caesar Rees is the guy.

427
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,519
Speaker 5: Okay, we've talked about it at nausea, like the mistake

428
00:21:47,599 --> 00:21:50,319
after mistake after mistake, right, I'd like to see somebody

429
00:21:50,319 --> 00:21:52,319
else step up with that right guard position. So that's

430
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:53,799
what I want to see. It all has to do

431
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,200
with the offensive line. I think we have capable running backs.

432
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,039
I think we have capable quarterbacks. We have at least

433
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,599
a couple of capable receivers. You got a new one

434
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,359
coming in, and we got a new one, big boy,

435
00:22:08,079 --> 00:22:08,799
twenty years old.

436
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,519
Speaker 4: Older fella. It's fine, just seasoned, seasoned, that's right.

437
00:22:14,319 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I would like to see, And of

438
00:22:16,319 --> 00:22:18,319
course I want to see the quarterbacks be efficient. But

439
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,359
they've proven that already that they can be efficient. Now

440
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,480
they're not gonna approve they can, but they're not gonna

441
00:22:22,519 --> 00:22:25,640
prove at this game if you're gonna be a long

442
00:22:25,759 --> 00:22:28,039
term starter or a great quarterback, because like I said,

443
00:22:28,079 --> 00:22:30,880
that's gonna come down to the game winning drives. It's

444
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:32,559
gonna come down to how you play a big moment.

445
00:22:32,599 --> 00:22:34,720
So you don't get those big moments of preseason games.

446
00:22:34,759 --> 00:22:36,240
You just don't do it. You get third downs, you

447
00:22:36,279 --> 00:22:39,240
get red zone plays, but that's like really a judging

448
00:22:39,279 --> 00:22:40,960
and grady and how efficient you can be at work

449
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:43,359
in the offense. We'll see when the regular season come down,

450
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,480
which quarterback can make those like game changing plays and

451
00:22:46,559 --> 00:22:49,240
who can avoid the opposite type of game changing plays.

452
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,000
But you can't do it without an offensive line. You

453
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,920
can't do it without a running game. It ain't gonna happen.

454
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,599
Speaker 4: Like that one. I think that certainly needs to happen.

455
00:22:58,799 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 7: Alandra kind of ties in with y'all's a little bit

456
00:23:01,839 --> 00:23:04,319
because if all of that is working well, then we

457
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,559
will score a touchdown in the first half like we

458
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,000
have not done in the past.

459
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 4: Stupid.

460
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,559
Speaker 6: I would love to see us get out in front.

461
00:23:16,079 --> 00:23:16,559
Speaker 4: How about that.

462
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 7: But also I want to see the defense kind of

463
00:23:19,759 --> 00:23:22,119
keep doing what it's doing. I mean, it's probably the

464
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:23,759
strongest part of this team.

465
00:23:26,799 --> 00:23:27,400
Speaker 4: Game giving up.

466
00:23:27,559 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I want them to stay consistent and hopefully

467
00:23:32,279 --> 00:23:34,559
healthy and just keep doing what they're doing. But yeah,

468
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,720
keep it simple, stupid score a touchdown?

469
00:23:37,279 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 4: Love that one in the first half. Yeah, please, I'll

470
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,200
take any but yes, please, First we.

471
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 6: Did until the fourth quarter last game.

472
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,720
Speaker 4: Heyday, interior d line.

473
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 8: As good as the defense have played, you got gashed

474
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:52,000
in the run game a little bit, a little bit

475
00:23:52,039 --> 00:23:54,079
too much. If you can't run the ball and you

476
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,160
can't stop the run, that is a recipe for disaster.

477
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,799
Just ask the Dallas Cowboys who were lasting both last

478
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,799
year year. I think the defense is a hole. Has

479
00:24:02,839 --> 00:24:04,880
done a good job, but those those tackles want to

480
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,680
see a little bit more from them. But overall, I'm

481
00:24:07,759 --> 00:24:09,519
keeping an eye on the defense because we know the

482
00:24:09,559 --> 00:24:10,880
problems on offense.

483
00:24:14,759 --> 00:24:17,519
Speaker 4: The whole team. How about that. Just just watch everything.

484
00:24:17,839 --> 00:24:21,559
Speaker 8: The punting battle, the battle of They got a punter

485
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:25,000
battle between James burn Up and Kay Kroger.

486
00:24:26,079 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 4: Talk about that one time Kroger South Carolina. I think

487
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:35,160
he went to sec BD days twice and ball.

488
00:24:37,039 --> 00:24:40,160
Speaker 6: For maybe tell like he's.

489
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:46,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, the tackles are great, but if your guards suck,

490
00:24:46,759 --> 00:24:49,880
it doesn't matter, does not matter, and like you know,

491
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,960
you'll be better at center because McCloy hadn't played.

492
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,759
Speaker 4: But those are your starting guards. They don't suck. You

493
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:59,960
just have a lot to work on. They suck, said,

494
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:04,599
don't suck. I mean, it's the difference Flynn.

495
00:25:04,599 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 3: If you're in your five four or five whatever he's

496
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,359
in in the NFL and you pass up a big

497
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,519
guy to go to a little guy, I can't.

498
00:25:12,039 --> 00:25:16,119
Speaker 5: They say that the jump you make from year five

499
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,680
to six is one of the biggest in your career.

500
00:25:20,799 --> 00:25:22,880
Speaker 4: They've always said it. We're waiting for it.

501
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 3: They've always said, hey, let me pass up on this

502
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:29,200
defensive tackle to go to a linebacker. No, poop, that's

503
00:25:29,279 --> 00:25:32,000
not my responsibility. Spencer Raler gets a face mask and

504
00:25:32,039 --> 00:25:34,400
that he just was trying not to give up the gap.

505
00:25:34,519 --> 00:25:41,200
There never know new offense, you know, Yeah, yep, just wait,

506
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,079
he might be all pro by the end of the year.

507
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:51,400
Speaker 4: I'll wait and I'll just continue to wait. Wait. That's

508
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,720
don't agreement. That made me even more sad. Thinging that

509
00:25:53,839 --> 00:25:54,920

Speaker 9: You bad?

551
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:05,119
Speaker 3: All right, we gotta kind of quickly do this right

552
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,079
here because we are going to take a break, like

553
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:13,920
extremely extremely early certainly for us, kind of kind of

554
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,799
actually on time. We gotta put together a little pontoon

555
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:23,160
parlay here for week zero. And so the way this works,

556
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,960
Matthew is you take a game each week, one that

557
00:28:27,079 --> 00:28:31,559
you feel strongest about, and you give it to the group.

558
00:28:32,039 --> 00:28:35,039
We have four plays, we put it together and we

559
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:39,000
parlay it and we see if we hit or many

560
00:28:39,039 --> 00:28:40,880
many times. Last year three to the four ward hitt

561
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,319
and I can tell who missed. Okay, I got to

562
00:28:43,359 --> 00:28:44,599
talk about some somebody that's not here.

563
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:45,039
Speaker 4: That's wrong.

564
00:28:46,359 --> 00:28:50,039
Speaker 3: So you've got Iowa State, Kansas State. Now, if you

565
00:28:50,119 --> 00:28:53,359
can find a line on Idaho State UNLV, go ahead.

566
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:56,079
I know UNOV like is a twenty six and a

567
00:28:56,079 --> 00:28:58,960
half point favorite, but not every sports book is going

568
00:28:59,039 --> 00:29:01,359
to have that since it's an CS team. You got

569
00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,119
Fresno State in Kansas, you have Sam Houston and Western Kentucky,

570
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,200
and you have Stanford and Hawaii.

571
00:29:09,359 --> 00:29:11,359
Speaker 4: To find these lines, I got it for you right here.

572
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 3: Iowa State, Kansas State minus three for Kansas State UNLV,

573
00:29:17,039 --> 00:29:20,200
Idaho State, minus twenty six and a half for UNLV,

574
00:29:21,079 --> 00:29:26,039
Fresno State and Kansas minus thirteen for the Jayhawks, Sam

575
00:29:26,119 --> 00:29:29,240
Houston and Western Kentucky, minus ten and a half for

576
00:29:29,359 --> 00:29:33,359
Western Kentucky, Stanford and Hawaii, minus two and a half

577
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:34,480
for Hawaii.

578
00:29:36,279 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 4: Shoure Are we all just pig in one? Yeah? All right?

579
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,240
I want Hawaii to cover the two and a half.

580
00:29:40,319 --> 00:29:42,359
You want Hawaii to cover I want Hawaii to cover

581
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,720

583
00:29:45,519 --> 00:29:47,680
Speaker 8: Best winning percentages at home and one of the worst

584
00:29:47,759 --> 00:29:51,039
on the road. Do the debt travel Stanford not great.

585
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,559
Lost a lot from last year as well, so I

586
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:54,160
like Hawaii.

587
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:55,200

660
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,799
we've talked about the nine game SEC schedule and you

661
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,920
and I get a chance to you know, hang out

662
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:09,719
see each other down in Destin every year for the

663
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,159
SEC Spring meetings, and I know this was a big

664
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,199
part of the conversation, so Herb, I was just like

665
00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,000
from that moment where you had you know, a lot

666
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,639
of people were in favor of it, but you still

667
00:34:19,679 --> 00:34:22,119
had some that were asking questions, like from that moment

668
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,639
until yesterday's announcement, kind of what was that process like

669
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:26,519
to get to this point?

670
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:29,119
Speaker 12: Well, you know, I think you have to go back

671
00:34:29,119 --> 00:34:32,480
a lot further than that to really capitulate everything that's

672
00:34:32,519 --> 00:34:35,159
taking place to get us to where we are today.

673
00:34:35,199 --> 00:34:38,119
In the announcement that we made yesterday, we had discussions

674
00:34:38,159 --> 00:34:41,760
about our schedule even going back to twenty nineteen, before

675
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:44,440
of Oklahoma Texas even joined the league. I can remember

676
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,559
there was a meeting schedule in twenty twenty at the

677
00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:51,440
SEC men's basketball tournament where our presidents, presidents and chancellors

678
00:34:51,519 --> 00:34:53,960
gather every year, and this was on the agenda to

679
00:34:54,039 --> 00:34:57,960
talk about the football schedule. That's when COVID hit and

680
00:34:58,679 --> 00:35:04,400
that discussion never took and so things played out. You know,

681
00:35:04,599 --> 00:35:07,079
after that din Oklahoma Texas joined the league, and I

682
00:35:07,119 --> 00:35:09,679
think there's a natural progression that what the conference expands,

683
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,440
you talk about adding games to the schedule, But the

684
00:35:12,599 --> 00:35:18,000
initial discussion about adjusting our schedule emanated from talk about

685
00:35:18,119 --> 00:35:22,159
wanting our student athletes and our fans to be able

686
00:35:22,199 --> 00:35:24,320
to see more teams from around the league. You know,

687
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:26,840
in the old divisional days, he only saw a couple

688
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:31,280
of other teams through other divisions rarely because they they

689
00:35:32,079 --> 00:35:35,039
did not rotate through your schedule very often. And so

690
00:35:35,159 --> 00:35:37,440
the discussion was, well, how can we get our student

691
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:40,639
athletes on the other campuses are facing other teams more often.

692
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:43,679
That dynamics changed a little bit with the transfer policy,

693
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,239
but we still have interest in our fans being able

694
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:49,360
to go to other campuses, go to other stadiums experience

695
00:35:49,519 --> 00:35:52,320
new rivalries, and so I think that's where it all started,

696
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,880
was even way back then, you know, bringing it up

697
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:59,639
to this year's this year's spring meetings, I think we

698
00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,559
had to healthy discussions there by the discussions through the

699
00:36:02,599 --> 00:36:06,519
ads themselves separately, with football coaches together, football coaches and

700
00:36:06,679 --> 00:36:10,719
athletics directors, and then conversations just considered continued after that.

701
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:13,880
So I think it's I think it was an important

702
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:16,159
announcement yesterday. I think it was a look to the

703
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,880
future for our athletics directors and our presidences and chancellors,

704
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,719
and I think it's good for SEC fans.

705
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:27,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, we kind of reading there's been a lot of discussions,

706
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,519
certainly on this show and other show and just kind

707
00:36:29,559 --> 00:36:32,679
of around the SEC about with this new scheduling, there

708
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:36,119
is going to be three common opponents for every team

709
00:36:36,159 --> 00:36:38,320
that's they're going to play every single year. I want

710
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,440
to kind of know how that decision making process is

711
00:36:41,559 --> 00:36:44,880
gonna kind of kind of unfold, and will each individual

712
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,679
team have some sort of input in that final decision.

713
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 12: Yeah, there's some advanced lavalries and part of this part

714
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,320
of this structure, which is a you know, three annual

715
00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,360
opponents six sprintaning opponents was to maintain some of those

716
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,920
traditional robberies. I think people know who those robberies are.

717
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:05,840
Then there's you know, you know, you have schedule balance

718
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,039
as much as you can. You don't want to load

719
00:37:08,119 --> 00:37:11,880
up one team with too many difficult annual rivals.

720
00:37:13,039 --> 00:37:13,159
Speaker 3: Uh.

721
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:17,960
Speaker 12: There's there's geography uh involved. I think there's a number

722
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,760
of different things, and so that'll that'll that'll play out

723
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:22,840
as we and we go through it, and certainly there's

724
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:26,239
discussions with the schools as well, so that announcement will

725
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,000
come up. I see it's already become a parlor game,

726
00:37:28,079 --> 00:37:30,960
you know, immediately after that, after the announcement yesterday, A

727
00:37:31,039 --> 00:37:33,000
mighty god, who's it going to be? It's gonna be

728
00:37:33,039 --> 00:37:34,800
the same as the ones that were announced in twenty

729
00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,480
twenty two, with it never were any announced in twenty

730
00:37:37,559 --> 00:37:40,199
twenty two. There was some discussion internally about who might

731
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,800
who it might be, and that discussion kind of took

732
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,880
off and a lot of people guessed at what they were.

733
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,119
And so you can you can search the internet and

734
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:53,719
find all kinds of people who reported different scenarios. But

735
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,039
but none of that, none of that holds right now.

736
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,079
So that'll be a big announcement when we have it, obviously,

737
00:37:59,079 --> 00:38:00,719
because of the anticipation is already building.

738
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:01,159
Speaker 4: Yeah.

739
00:38:01,639 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, with that question, I mean we certainly talked about

740
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,400
it here today and Glenna and I talking about teams

741
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,639
that we had, you know, great games against when we

742
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:09,519
were playing for LSU, and you don't want to see

743
00:38:09,559 --> 00:38:11,679
those go away. But I guess the question is, like,

744
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:13,719
when you look at those things, it's hard her because like,

745
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:15,840
do you go to recent memories that like the last

746
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:18,360
ten years, last fifteen, last twenty years of teams that

747
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,880
have played and now they're memorable games, or do you

748
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:23,280
go back one hundred years? Just like how far you

749
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,320
kind of go back in the thought process of these

750
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,800
two teams playing each other because of the history between

751
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:28,360
the two teams.

752
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 12: Yeah, and I think you make it more recent, you know,

753
00:38:30,559 --> 00:38:32,840
you have some recncy to it to make sure that

754
00:38:33,599 --> 00:38:38,480
you're measuring strength of programs in a more recent time frame.

755
00:38:39,119 --> 00:38:40,360
And you're right, you know, you go back to your

756
00:38:40,519 --> 00:38:42,039
you guys played it, you guys to play at LSU.

757
00:38:42,119 --> 00:38:43,840
And so there's a time when LSU's big Robbert it

758
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:44,639
was was old.

759
00:38:44,679 --> 00:38:44,800
Speaker 10: Miss.

760
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:47,079
Speaker 12: There's a time when it seemed like in the nineties

761
00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:51,320
it was Auburn. You know, then there's Alabama at the time,

762
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:52,760
there was at the end of the year, there was

763
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,760
the Arkansas game. And so you know, who's the rival

764
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,239
for every school. And one of the things we're not

765
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:05,000
calling it is permanent opponents because we'll take a certain

766
00:39:05,079 --> 00:39:07,039
time period and then relook at it. You know, those

767
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,639
those annual rivals could change over the course of time,

768
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:15,559
but we'll look at it and we'll we'll we'll have

769
00:39:15,599 --> 00:39:17,280
a big announcement at some point, and I think people

770
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:18,039
take interest in it.

771
00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 5: So, Herb, what do you think is going to happen?

772
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:22,840
So we got there, there will be nine sec schedule games.

773
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:24,199
What do you think is going to happen to those

774
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:26,559
other three games? They're still going to be kind of

775
00:39:26,559 --> 00:39:31,199
the required power for non conference schedule or do you so,

776
00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:32,719
do you think that's gonna go away? Or do you

777
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:34,679
think one of the other, like the Group of five

778
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:35,519
game will go away?

779
00:39:35,519 --> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 4: In a lot of these teams schedule, that's that's.

780
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 12: One of the requirements is that you still have to

781
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,880
play a team Yeah, yeah, Big ten or Big twelve

782
00:39:43,639 --> 00:39:46,519
or Notre Dame. And so I think that you know,

783
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,559
that's ten Power Conference opponents for every team every year.

784
00:39:50,639 --> 00:39:54,119
I don't think there's another conference in the country with

785
00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:58,119
the rigor that already existed in the SEC schedule and

786
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:01,800
then now you had a ninth game continue the Power five,

787
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:06,000
Power four requirement. There's no other conference in the country

788
00:40:06,039 --> 00:40:10,079
that has this difficult of a schedule as the Southeastern Conference.

789
00:40:10,119 --> 00:40:12,760
I think it's great for fans. It's compelling, compelling games,

790
00:40:12,840 --> 00:40:15,480
great interest, and I think that was part of the

791
00:40:16,559 --> 00:40:19,440
motivation of our athletics directors and our presence and chancellors.

792
00:40:19,639 --> 00:40:23,280
It's looking forward. It's looking to the long term good

793
00:40:23,559 --> 00:40:27,039
of the Southeastern Conference, creating value for the league and

794
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,800
how we would be perceived in the future and how

795
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:31,760
we compete in the future.

796
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,920
Speaker 4: I love that. Just real quick on the way out, Herb,

797
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:36,199
we can't thank enough for your time.

798
00:40:36,599 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 3: The official OTB stance is if Lshum Florida play every year,

799
00:40:40,119 --> 00:40:40,840
we wouldn't hate that.

800
00:40:42,199 --> 00:40:46,159
Speaker 12: Okay, all right, we'll factor that into Okay, yeah, if we.

801
00:40:46,159 --> 00:40:46,679
Speaker 4: Get a vote.

802
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure you know, every year since nineteen seventy one,

803
00:40:49,599 --> 00:40:52,079
So we'll throw the facts out there. Herb, you truly

804
00:40:52,119 --> 00:40:53,679
are the best man. I cannot thank you enough. I

805
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,559
know today is a crazy day for you, So thanks

806
00:40:55,559 --> 00:40:56,760

00:40:57,159 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 12: All right, thanks guys, good luck you see all.

Speaker 4: With a lot of news there. That was great. Yeah.

811
00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:07,800
Uh the power for stuff. Love it.

812
00:41:08,079 --> 00:41:11,159
Speaker 3: There's gonna be some people right now, probably people building

813
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:13,840
that are punching air, just punching it, just so mad.

814
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 4: All the smoke are all and a power for opponent.

815
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,719
I would love it. Let's play Penn State. Let's do it.

816
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:26,800
Wouldn't that be sweet? Yeah?

817
00:41:27,079 --> 00:41:29,119
Speaker 3: Go there, you held a wide out situation. They come

818
00:41:29,199 --> 00:41:31,400
back here and whatever color y'all want to choose. You

819
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:32,559
can do that too if you want to. Or you

820
00:41:32,599 --> 00:41:35,320
can just have a good old Cajun drunk fest. You

821
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:38,639
can do whatever, it doesn't matter. All the good teams.

822
00:41:39,559 --> 00:41:43,039
Speaker 4: That was a great We appreciate her. Yeah. I like

823
00:41:43,159 --> 00:41:46,559
today's visit for him. He kind of gave me a

824
00:41:46,559 --> 00:41:48,599
schedule and I was like, we will move our closs.

825
00:41:48,599 --> 00:41:51,119
Speaker 3: We'll just do that one for you. So yeah, uh

826
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,280
so I better listen to us. So on the Florida thing,

827
00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:55,239
I'm sure we get a vote. Yeah, I mean he

828
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,280
just told commissioners, thank you. You got nervous because he

829
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,360
didn't he didn't mention that when he's talking. I know,

830
00:41:59,599 --> 00:42:04,480
I know he went to miss and they skipped Florida went.

831
00:42:05,079 --> 00:42:07,440
So a couple of things that that did stand out

832
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,760
to me, that the power for stuff love that, uh

833
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,840
and also like more recent history between the two teams.

834
00:42:15,159 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 4: That's important. It's important bouncing it out. It's not necessarily

835
00:42:18,519 --> 00:42:18,880
gonna like.

836
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:21,800
Speaker 3: So like two maybe that make a lot of sense

837
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:24,280
to the ones like, hey, we're gonna give you little breathe. Yeah,

838
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,199
so like if you're looking at LSU, it might not

839
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:31,280
be Florida, Alabama Auburn. It might be Florida, Alabama or Arkansas.

840
00:42:31,679 --> 00:42:36,840
Right so little yeah, good information there from her boot. Yeah,

841
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,679
So the biggest takeaway for me was the hey, more

842
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:44,840
recent like so to a Launder's point text A and

843
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:48,599
m now is fully in play because that recently is

844
00:42:48,639 --> 00:42:49,199
certainly a thing.

845
00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 6: I'm trying to edit the show right now and I

846
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:55,880
just got to the part.

847
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,320
Speaker 11: Where Matt picked the game that you did on the

848
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,960
opposite But it's a good way not to go over

849
00:43:02,119 --> 00:43:06,599
the in your point. But I do think Kansas is

850
00:43:06,599 --> 00:43:09,960
going to cover that one. But obviously, you know I was.

851
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 4: Trying to I was trying to scramble. That's mad. They're hydrated.

852
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:19,000
They're very hydrated. Fresno State's not. Actually they aren't. You're right.

853
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:22,920
I love your pick. Thank you.

854
00:43:23,199 --> 00:43:23,840
Speaker 2: No, you don't.

855
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:25,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, now the opposite of it.

856
00:43:26,039 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 4: I'm sorry. I wasn't listening to any of else picks

857
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:29,440
and I was trying to get the internet to work

858
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:30,840
on my computer. I don't know.

859
00:43:35,639 --> 00:43:37,320
Speaker 6: My Texas A and M take was dumb.

860
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,840
Speaker 3: No, that's a great I actually I think her just

861
00:43:39,880 --> 00:43:43,679
kind of confirms your take. Actually, in my mind, yeah,

862
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:47,000
I think you did. Recency means something.

863
00:43:47,079 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 7: So uh.

864
00:43:48,119 --> 00:43:52,159
Speaker 3: Speaking of recency, there recently has been some heat in

865
00:43:52,199 --> 00:43:54,079
the Gulf of America and heating up a little bit,

866
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:55,159

880
00:44:26,599 --> 00:44:28,920

885
00:44:43,679 --> 00:44:47,480
to figure out who we want LSU to play. Hey,

886
00:44:47,679 --> 00:44:50,800

Speaker 4: That was big too. That was the other thing that

888
00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:52,800
I wrote down.

889
00:44:53,079 --> 00:44:57,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, we could revisit this thing and don't know, six years,

890
00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,079
eight years, ten years, I don't know that, but he said,

891
00:44:59,079 --> 00:45:02,920
we'll reassess. That is an important note to the scheduling.

892
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:07,360
So I mean, great information by herb. Yeah, really clear.

893
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:09,119
