Hour Three | What’s the Ticket, Pontoon Parlay & Ask the Bench

0:00Hi, this is Dave Roberts. Heading into summer without a medical emergency kit, that's a risk. Summer colds can linger and getting sick on vacation can derail everything. That's why everyone needs a medical emergency kit. It includes Dr. prescribed medications to treat common and serious illnesses. So if you wake up sick, at home or on the road, you already have what you need. It's like having an urgent care and pharmacy at home. Say $45 with code blue at urgentcarekit.com slash blue urgentcarekit.com slash blue. This is Dave Roberts. If you're heading into summer without a medical emergency kit, you're taking a risk most people don't think about until it's too late. Summer colds linger and can turn into sinus infections at last for weeks. Getting sick right before vacation can derail everything. And we are traveling, finding a doctor and pharmacy is stressful. That's why I ordered medical emergency kit. It's like having an emergency care and a pharmacy right at home. It includes essential prescriptions like a moxasillin and generic Z-pack to treat a wide range of common and serious illnesses.

1:00So if you wake up sick, at home or on the road, you already have what you need. No waiting for your doctor, no hours at urgent care, no pharmacy lines, no copays. Just match your symptoms to the right prescription in your guidebook or call their telemedicine doctor standing by. Start on your med sooner and feel better faster. Every home needs at least one medical emergency kit. 40 years online in minutes and it's shipped to your door and say $45 with promo code blue at urgentcaredkit.com slash blue. That's promo code blue at urgentcaredkit.com slash blue. Hey, it's Kelly Rowland. You may not know this, but I have eczema. So I get how it can steal your time. But why let eczema take over when you can talk to your doctor about ebglyss? Ebglyss, lubricism app LBKZ, a 250mg per 2mL injection, is a prescription medicine used to treat adults and children 12 years of age and older, who weigh at least 88 lbs or 40kg with moderate to severe eczema. Also called a topic dermatitis that is not well controlled with prescription therapies used on the skin, or topicals, or who cannot use topical therapies.

2:04Ebglyss can be used with or without topical corticosteroids. Don't use if you are allergic to ebglyss. Allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. Eye problems can occur. Tell your doctor if you have newer, worsening eye problems. You should not receive a live vaccine when treated with ebglyss. Before starting ebglyss, tell your doctor if you have a parasitic infection. Pay partnership with Lili. Respect your time. Ask your doctor about ebglyss and visit ebglyss.com or call 1-800-LiliRX or 1-800-545-5979. Off the bench with the Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn. Hamster Hester and Hester. Yep, got it. 5 out of 5. From carrying each other to a natty to carrying each other on the year. Where is back to throw for the end zone play? Live from the Raising Cain studio. It's off the bench. Eye, can't stand it. I thought you were winning. I was gonna take this one. Hey, I can't stand it. You're welcome back here off the bench. Hour number three on a football Friday.

3:06And it's kind of like the football Friday. Everybody the juices are flowing. It's not like a billion degrees outside. It's still 78 degrees here in the capital city. We are very close to the Gatesville issue here at Rouses on Burbank. Come check us out. We're here for another hour. Just locking it in. Getting ready. Smelling the food. My sushi guy back there working his tail off. So come grab some stuff. Come check us out over here at Rouses. Want to tell you about our friends over at IU Automotive by Automotive.com. If you're driving around listening to us, maybe you want to carpool. Maybe you're driving to work. Maybe you're going to get a little breakfast. Whatever it is. You're looking around your car. This is a piece of junk. I'm ready for a new car. A new vehicle. Well, there's no better place to do it than by you automotive. Fantastic dealership over there. I'm in Laplace, but you don't have to go there. Guess what? You can go shop for that brand new car from the comfort of your own home. And maybe you can shop for that new car in the comfort of your current vehicle.

4:06Right there on that iPhone, that smartphone, whatever you got. You just order. They got two full-time drivers on staff. They will drive it right to you. Doesn't matter. It's so easy. They make the process completely easy. And you can look cool, even if you're Jake's age. And you're not cool to your teenage kids. Well, you can get a car that makes you want to drive. Or it makes you go fast. Or it sits more people. It doesn't really matter. You see it out there with you. I see it. You see it out there, Bronco? You see it out there? Bronco Mo. I'll see you. Go to buy you automotive. Buy you automotive.com. All right. It is 9 o'clock on a football Friday. So that starts hour number three, as Matt said. And well, we like to play our favorite games at 9 a.m. And so we'll start it off with a little what's the ticket? We'll also have a little pontoon par late in the next segment. We'll break down LSU and the New Orleans Saints one final time. And then we'll get to your questions. Of course, with a little ask the bench brought to you by Dos Seki's to wrap it up. Now, I will say this.

5:06And maybe we start doing this a little bit because it's actually pretty fun to do it in the NFL. As well as far as like what's the ticket? There's some crazy prices in the NFL. We're not going to do that. But next week, I do want to add maybe this to what we do. Because like the highest ticket in the NFL this weekend. The bears and Vikings 250 bucks. Okay. To get into the stadium. So that's a pretty big ticket in the NFL. And last week it was like even more. I was wondering if you're going to say that was a big ticket or a low ticket. I don't even know how to compare them to 250 bucks. I mean, because usually there are a lot of times in like the college like what's the ticket? It's usually somewhere in the hundred hundred twenty five dollar range. Like it's usually in a failed stadium seat less than a lot of colleges do as well. So I actually would have never even looked at an NFL ticket price. 250 bucks. So you're not going to have like the four dollar tickets like you have in the NFL.

6:07Although this one is surprising. The lowest ticket in the NFL $30 for commanders and cowboys. The vision rivals cowboys. In Dallas. Cowboys typically have a good crowd. They are not happy about that loss to the Giants. So the cheapest ticket 30 bucks. Cowboys better win that one. There's a lot of pre preseason hype towards them. If they don't win that and they go in to in their division. I will say this. Saints Ravens. One of the highest tickets in the NFL $139 cheapest ticket to get into that game. Saints and Ravens. All right. But we're not here to talk about NFL ticket prices. That's maybe next week. Let's do college ticket prices. And if you're new to the show. What's the ticket? It is a top 25 game. It only has involved at least one top 25 team. We go across the country. We've been doing this for eight years now. What is the lowest get in price? And what is the highest get in price? And we'll always start with the lowest ticket price.

7:10And by the way, no LSU and Ole Misses not on the table. Okay. Yeah. That'd be easy. We're not doing easy here. So that's off the board. Get it out of here. Yeah. Okay. We're going lowest ticket price. Allandran Tate. Here we go. Is it Miami at Wake Forest? Is it Georgia at Arkansas? Is it Buffalo at Penn State? Is it Portland State at Oregon? Is it Troy at Missouri? Or is it UTEP at Michigan? So Miami Wake Forest, Georgia Arkansas, Buffalo Penn State, Portland State Oregon, Troy, Missouri, UTEP and Michigan. And we'll start back in studio with Alondra and Tate. So last year Tate brought up. If it's Miami, it's probably the lowest ticket. But I think that it being in Wake Forest also makes that more likely. I think they care more about baseball than they do football up there.

8:12So I'm going to go Miami at Wake Forest. Jake, real quick, did you say the game was at Arkansas or at Georgia? It's at Arkansas. Okay. Yeah. I'm going to go to Georgia at Arkansas. That program is giving up. There was a golf course out there in the Fayetteville area that said, Hey, don't want to go watch the game. Come play around a golfer with us for only $25. They are done. I'm going to say that at home, Arkansas is the lowest ticket price. Thank you. Like that. That's a good one too. Okay. I'm going to go. I thought about UTEP Michigan because of the size of the stadium. But I guess coming off a win. I'm going to go. Oh, yeah, the big house. Right. I'm going to go Buffalo at Penn State. All right. We'll go with the most expensive ticket. We'll work our way down to the least expensive ticket at the highest ticket here in the lower category. It is Miami at Wake Forest $63. Get you into that game. Coming in next is going to be UTEP at Michigan $25.

9:15Get you into that game. Coming in next would be Troy at Missouri $19. We're going to get in. The next one would be Georgia at Arkansas $13. To get into that game. Moving on, it would be Buffalo at Penn State $12 to get you into that game. And the lowest ticket involving at least one top 25 team this week. Portland State at Oregon for $11. So a single dollar beats out the Buffalo at Penn State. So Portland State Oregon, Oregon coming off and embarrassing loss to Oklahoma State. Portland State's 0 and 3 already on the year $11 gets you in to the stadium. That's the Oregon giving up is at time. Is it time for our God Dylan? I don't think it's time. He wait. Dylan Rolla. Is that okay. So last year he played for Nebraska. Right. This year he just transferred to Oregon.

10:17Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, that's right. Breaking news breaking news. Wait, because Dante more went to then a fall rate. No, he actually just got back to Oregon. That's crazy. That's crazy. Yeah, it's wild. Dante more actually had his own improved any. No. Yeah, it's not. Hadin' looked very good. He's not. It's time for Dylan Rolla. It's time for saying. The experiment, the Dante more experiment is over. Okay. He's somewhere saying it. Somewhere saying it. And Matt Flynn's the one saying. Still in time. All right. So let's go to the highest ticket and LSU Ole Miss, you're off the board. Yeah, because you're like 800. Okay. Right now LSU at Ole Miss, the get in price. Two feet inside the stadium. And the most expensive ticket, that would be a much larger number. The cheapest ticket right now, $620. Whoa! To get into. Is that our record? I think it is. Last week there was a $475. We had a whiteout at Penn State that was like $475. Before. Last week there was $100. There was another tax tax. So high state.

11:17It was $475. Yeah. That set the record for the highest we've ever had in our eight-year run of what's the ticket. That has been beat. It is now. LSU at Ole Miss. $620 to get all 10 Piggies inside the stadium there. All 10 Piggies. I like that. All 10 Piggies. All right. Here are the list of games, because again, that was off the board. That's easy. We don't want easy here. Is it Houston at Texas Tech? Is it Florida State at Alabama? Is it SMU at Louisville? Is it Michigan State at Notre Dame? West Virginia at Virginia. UTSA at Texas. So Houston, Texas Tech, Florida State, Alabama, SMU, Louisville, Michigan State, Notre Dame, West Virginia at Virginia, UTSA, Texas. We'll throw it back to Studio, Tate, Alondra, highest ticket in the country.

12:18This one I really don't know. But I think I'm going to go with Michigan State at Notre Dame. Perfect. That was in between two. I'll go to the other one. I'll take Houston at Texas Tech. All right. So, she went along to a Michigan State Notre Dame. Yeah. And then Tate went Houston at Texas Tech. Man, this is a challenge one, because there's so many poo games out there. Some bad games this week. When you're throwing UTSA into this one. Okay. Let's go. I'm going to go SMU at Louisville. All right. We'll start with the lowest and we'll work our way all the way up to the top ticket in the country. Coming in last here in the high category, Florida State at Alabama, $33 for that game. Next up is SMU at Louisville. That one is $34.

13:18$34. Come on Louisville. Coming in next. Houston at Texas Tech, $81 gets you into that game. And third here, West Virginia at UVA, $83 gets you into that game. And number two, Michigan State in Notre Dame, $89. And so that means the top ticket in the country, the highest get in price in the top 25 is UTSA at Texas for $115. Because again, we take LSU and Ole Miss out of it $620 to get into that contest. So the highest ticket this week, UTSA at Texas, the lowest is Portland State at Oregon. That is so dumb because who wants to go watch UTSA get routed by Texas? And pay money to go do that?

14:18I'll get it. But you know what, Laundrie, you know how it is, Texas, number one team in the country now. They're filling themselves after last week. They're going to have the cowboy hats and cowboy boots and big belt buckles on in the crowd doing the hook. Hey, look. Hey, look. All right. That's going to do it for what's the ticket. Interest them. When we come back. It's $625. It's time for the pontoon par lay. Holy moly. We're going to throw out some winners and it's going to hit. It's just going to be the wolf pack. Anytime we try to throw a fifth member into the wolf pack, it doesn't go well. The only time we've hit when it's been the wolf pack. So the wolf pack will give you the four plays, the four winners on the pontoon par lay when we come back here live from Rouses. Off the bench. This is Dave Roberts. If you're heading into summer without a medical emergency kit, you're taking a risk most people don't think about until it's too late.

Baton Rouge is go to for all things Louisiana sports.

19:28Welcome again. Oh, T B here live from Rouse's on Burbank and Lee. Feeling energetic now here in our number three. Feel a little spousal almost like I went to Rejuven me. Rejuvene Medical dot com 13 locations across Louisiana. You know, they got one in that state to the right of us as well. So 13 total locations, Rejuvene Medical dot com. We'll say that. We'll be seeing it today. Not today. Not on this show. Yeah. If you're looking at the state, it's the right. If you're looking from the state, it's still left. Exactly. Yep.

And there's not a reason for you to not feel youthful.

20:29There's not a reason for you not to have energy when they can put you on a plan for success. Go to Rejuvene Medical dot com today to get that started. All right. It is now time for the punt. Tune parlay. All right. So we are going to give you our four plays for the weekend. We each give you a pick. We don't let anybody in the wolf pack anymore. All right. The only time we've hit is when it's been the wolf pack. All right. So we're going to give you a four team parlay. Go ahead and take it to the bank. Responsibly. Yeah. At your own risk. This is not financial advice. All right. Let's as we see it. Let's throw it back to studio and downtown Baton Rouge with Tatain Alonja to give us their picks for the pontoon parlay. I feel like we really have to redeem ourselves because I think that Richard maybe was the only one that hit last week and Taylor. So somebody who's not even in the fox hole hit and Taita. So I think I'm going to go with two Texas teams Houston versus Texas tech number 22 versus number 13.

21:37And they both played Oregon State and had very similar finishes. Houston just put up 77. I know Southern, but they still put up 77 points against them held them to six. They have a really good defense. Still not completely sure what Texas tech is going to end up being. So I'm going to take Houston to cover in that game. I think the line was seven and a half. Yep. Seven and a half. So I'm going to take Houston plus seven and a half. All right, we're going to go out to college park Maryland, the Terps taking on the Virginia Tech cookies. Now Maryland's one. It's last 16 games against a nonconference opponents. I don't really think that matters this weekend because they've lost 12 of their last 13 as an underdog Virginia currently a three point favorite. They've looked good under James Franklin and also James Franklin hates Maryland. He was head coach and waiting if you remember all the way back in 2008. A new athletic director said no, and he's been on a war path. He's nine and two all time against Virginia Tech six and one head to head against Mike Loxley.

22:38Loxley's only win over Franklin was back in the 2020 season during the pandemic. Last time they face off James Franklin beat Maryland by over 30 points. I think Virginia gets it done once again. I'm taking the Hokies minus three to cover against Maryland. All right, so Flynn a little recap there. Yeah, we got Houston plus seven and a half at Texas Tech Houston plus seven and a half. Remember that games tonight? So go ahead and get these plays in Virginia Tech minus three versus Maryland. What tech? Taylor, we definitely obviously remember that James Franklin was the coach and waiting over in Maryland. We definitely remember that from 2008. No, how could you not that was national news, bud? You were like four relax. All right, we're going to go over here to my pick and this one is definitely going to hit. I'm going to go University of North Carolina at Clemson.

23:39They are plus three. They're getting three points versus Clemson and I get it. There's a lot of news surrounding these tar hills. The air liquor himself, the mullet wearing defensive coordinator they had. He has been dismissed. He has left the team, whatever. It's okay. That's going to galvanize that team and you know what happens when Bill Bellichack stops, stops caring what he's wearing. Did you see him with that shmedium sweatshirt on with his man boobs? Stick it out like my goodness. He does not care what's happening and that when he doesn't care, he is a dangerous man. So look out, Clemson, you're not very good. I'm sorry. You just got absolutely broken by LSU. It's Dabo. He is just whistling by the graveyard right now. The time is coming for Dabo. This is his last year at Clemson, UNC plus three. UNC plus three against the fighting Dabo Sweeney's. All right. I like that. I wanted to do UNC Moneyline.

24:40Yeah, that sweatshirt was legit. I didn't see it. I'm intrigued. Yeah. I mean, it's not appealing for him. Right. But it is for us. But like even though I know he didn't care, but at some point you got to care like at least a little. And he didn't care like in the slightest. So they might win by 50. All right. I like it. They're getting points and they're going to win by 50. All right. So we have Houston plus seven and a half Virginia Tech minus three UNC plus three. I am going to go to the SEC with my pick. And I am going to go with a road team in the SEC to cover. I am going in the battle for a shade of maroon. Give me Mississippi State plus four against South Carolina. Wow. We were told Lennore sellers was the Prince who was promised, but it's actually Camario Taylor who is the Prince. Give me Mississippi State plus the four in my pontoon parlay pick.

25:44I actually even thought about going Moneyline in this one. I feel confident that Mississippi State is only getting viewed as the Mississippi State of the past. And not what they actually are this year. I think Camario Taylor is one of the better quarterbacks in the country. He's young. He's got things to figure out. We get all of that. I think he'll figure those things out. And I think he is going to out duel Lennore sellers in this match up. Sorry about it, Marlor. Go put some socks on. And obviously Jeff Levy is going to out duel Shane Beamer. Better the better head coach by 100% maybe even a thousand percent. Big fan. I like that bigger. They in South Carolina. It's in South Carolina. It's close to play. It's during the day. Okay. So you're in the day. Makes me feel a little bit better about the pick there. That's right. You're in the day. So the pontoon parlay here this week. It is going to be Houston plus seven and a half against Texas Tech. It is going to be Virginia Tech minus three against Maryland. It's going to be UNC plus three against Clemson.

26:46And then Mississippi State plus four against South Carolina. So we've got three underdogs in the pontoon parlay. I believe last week we had too many favorites. Yeah. Too many favorites. We were toast. Right. And to recap, like look. Yeah, we're one and two on the pontoon parlay so far this season. But we're one and one. It's just the wolf pack. Just want you all to know that. Richard Devon. We love you. Love it. You screwed up the pontoon parlay. Yeah. I mean, and you also picked my to hit. Yeah. I'm sure you're sure you're hit. But yeah, I just still have the mochi. Yeah, they threw it through us off. So all right. That is the pontoon parlay this week. We will step away. We'll give you one final look. One final most on the Saints and the Ravens and the Tigers and the Rebels in Oxford. And we'll do that when we come back here on OTB off the bench.

27:52The The The The The The The The The The The Every day I see you. My hands were made for you. And you always give. Stress reborn. From the locker room to the airwaves. It's off the bench with Jacob Hester and Matt Flynn. All my Welcome back. It's getting closer, ball. Yeah, every minute it gets closer, actually. I'm going to be like in the hotel room just like chomping at the bit tomorrow. Just like can we get on the bus? Can we get to Oxford?

28:52Me, Ben Mance, Oklahoma drill. Right now, your face. You think I can beat Ben Mance and Oklahoma drill? Nope. All that matters is that our team beats his team. I would truck Ben right now just for his face this week. Yeah. Next week, your face is fine. Yeah, yeah. But this week, truck. Truck stick. Not happen. He's major writing my eyes. OK. Just letting you know. OK. It's a deep guy. It's an old deep guy. He's all those people I ran over. La, la, la, la. Yeah. You did run a power off of a fake field goal, which is kind of cool. Yeah. But you didn't really look athletic as you fell down.

29:53Well, I had so much tape and so many ankle braces on. Like, how could I look that athletic? And I had offensive line shoes on that game to fit the ankle brace for that high ankle sprain. Not a big deal. I was doubtful. I was doubtful that you were doubtful even when you were playing. You know what I'm saying? I'm not saying it. Little soon. All right. We're going to give our final kind of looks at the Saints and the Tigers here. We'll start with the New Orleans Saints. Matt and I'll give you kind of how we see it going. Then Alonja and Tate will back in the studio. It's going to be a challenge for the Saints and not really with what they're doing, but who they're playing against. It's a very good Baltimore Ravens team. It is on the road for a second week in a row. Now, the injury report for Baltimore doesn't look great. It certainly is going to have some stars that are going to be on that injury report. They might give it a go, but they might not even play. That is a big advantage for the New Orleans Saints. Seven and a half point favorite for the Ravens. We talked about throughout the show.

30:53It was eight and a half. The Saints are going to be in this game. Saints are going to have an opportunity in the fourth quarter to go try and take a lead. Like they're going to have the ball with a chance to either tie it up or take a lead late. Can they make the play? Last week. I mean, to their credit, they did. All right, your two point conversion away. Like you get yourself in position to even try a 62-yard field goal at the end of regulation. This is going to feel like it's putting a lot of emphasis on one player and it is. But I just, some of the issues the Saints have. If the Ravens don't have Zay flowers, I think the Saints win. If the Ravens have Zay flowers, I think the Saints cover. He means that much, I think, to this game. And where are the Saints? If they had a deficiency, I would say obviously, defensive backs been talked about. Zay flowers to me is going to be the key to this game. Is he available? Does he play? Also, Trey Hendrixon might not be available for this game.

31:54That's two big ones. If those guys don't play, I'm telling you the Saints can win this game. They can win this game, but they have to start out. Tell them more. Tell them more, Tyler Schuck have to take the next step in their progression as a coach and as a quarterback. It is time for them to step their game up. Yeah, they can do it. They've been for Daimler 400 yards last week. But they cannot come out flat in the first half. And if they wanted opportunity to be in the game, the fourth quarter, like you said, if they want to be in the game in the fourth quarter, they have to come out and play good offense. They cannot come out flat and then hope that there's just not enough time in two quarters at the end of the game to go and win against a good team like the Ravens. So they got to start out. And that's the next progression. Yeah, they can do everything. Tyler Schuck, you can make every throw. You can make every play. You're super competitive. And we love that you got that dog in you to come back in the fourth quarter and in the second half. But the next progression for you as a quarterback

32:56is being able to do it for four quarters, do it in the first half and being able to run the offense early on and operate in play like it's the fourth quarter. Even though it's the first quarter, you got to do that. Keep that dog in you. We love it. We know you're going to be the quarterback here for New Orleans for a long time. It's time. I know it's only week two. It's your second year, but it's time to take that next step. So we can talk about safe flowers and tray Hendrix in and the defense blah, blah, blah. It's going to come down to that offense. Can they start out? And then you have to start out fast. You just have to start out good. You can't start out historically bad in the first half. And then play historically good in the second half. There's just not enough time versus a good defense. Our versus a good team like the Ravens. So start out fast. Play well on offense. And you're going to give yourself a chance in the fourth quarter. And if you give Tyler Schuck a fourth quarter chance, I like those odds. You like it? I love it. Boom. I want some more of it. Alternate. Let's throw it down the studio.

33:57Tate, Alondra, how does it play out for the New Orleans Saints this weekend? The Saints are going to have to run the football. I was the issue from the last week. I mean, the average, I think it was like 3.6 yards per carry. Tyler Schuck cannot throw the ball 50 times a game every single week and expect to win. I'm with you guys on Zayf Lowers. If he doesn't play, I feel a lot good about it. The question is, can the Saints run the ball and keep Lamar Jackson and Derek Henry off the field? I want to say yes, because I think the Saints of defense is going to step up a little bit. But I am going to go to the Ravens. I think Lamar Jackson and Derek Henry are just going to be a little bit too much this week. But I think it's close. Yeah, I think we're all kind of on the same page here. I think that the Saints did well versus the Lions in the second half of the game. They went to overtime. But I was asking you all last night, are the Lions just not as good maybe that we originally thought they were? I mean, I know Jared Goff is awesome. I guess Taylor's right. They had two starters on the offensive line that were out.

35:00It's not enough of a sample size for me for the Saints, but I do think that they cover but I think that the Ravens take this one. If Zave Flowers is. The Saints and Ravens and the Lions are tough to a long just point because Buffalo is really good. You know, Buffalo is, that was the first time they played in their new stadium. So it was turned up to an 11. You've got it. It feels rigged, right? So they're going to make the Buffalo, Buffalo win in their new stadium. They've got a unicorn at quarterback in Josh Allen. So it is a small sample size, but again, the injury report for this one is what I'm going to be eye hustling to see if the Saints can get it done. All right, it is now time to talk a little Tigers versus Rap Bulls. Hey, it's Kelly Rowland. You may not know this, but I have Exema. So I get how it can steal your time.

Summer colds can linger and getting sick on vacation can derail everything. That's why everyone needs a medical emergency kit. It includes doctor prescribed medications to treat common and serious illnesses. So if you wake up sick, at home, or on the road, you already have what you need.

All right, so we're all going to pick LSU. It is what it is for an LSU show, where LSU people, we played for LSU, we're not going against LSU. I know there's people at our station that, you know, will pick other teams. It's not going to be us, too. You'll never see that. It's probably not going to be anybody in the fox hole. It's just not how it's going to be. But we're going to tell you why we are picking LSU, okay? For me, LSU's defense travels. The Tigers have allowed just 24 points through two games, including only 10 against Clemson. They held Clemson under 150 total yards and allowed just one mat, one-third down conversion. That is a championship level defense, okay? Up front, Prince Will, Umam, Mielin leads the country with five sacks. And LSU's front is creating negative plays without consistently needing extra pressure. We talked about that all week long, getting pressure with four.

39:06And then when you want to bring extra numbers, you do it because you want to, not because you have to. I think the Tigers are going to make Trinidad chambliss just uncomfortable enough to make it where he's going to be playing behind the chains. I think this is going to be a game where first down matters a lot. And LSU's been really good on first down on defense to create second and longs that turn into third and longs. Kiwan Laci is a hell of a run back. I mean, he is really, really good. This is going to be the best group of linebackers. I think he goes against me thinks this entire year. So can you control him? If he has 85 yards on 20 something carries that is controlling one of the better players in the country, that is going to be an advantage. I think four LSU to have those guys in the middle of your defense. The biggest point though, I think LSU's defense gives the offense the opportunity to not have to be perfect. They don't have to be perfect because the LSU defense does things and they did it a week ago,

40:10right? We know Sam Levit. He's questionable. The offense committed four turnovers against Louisiana Tech. But LSU still won 45 to 14 because the defense refused to let the game turn. On the road and an emotional rivalry game, that defense is the most dependable unit I think on the field. On the field. So Ole Miss will make some plays. LSU can pressure the quarterback, stop the run and survive its own offensive mistakes. If there is mistakes, I'm taking the tires because LSU's defense is the best unit in this game. That's Ole Miss's offense, LSU offense, Ole Miss defense. The LSU defense is the best unit in this game. The Tigers win 27 to 20 on the road. Baby, I love it. 27 to 20 on the road. I think it's everything you said is absolutely correct. The LSU defense, Blake Baker, they are going to have a game. I, we've heard all about it. We know how good the talent is over at Ole Miss.

41:12It does not matter. That defense is that good. They're going to fly around. They are going to create absolute chaos. Yeah, there might be a big play here there for Ole Miss. It doesn't matter. But what it all comes down to, it is the game that everything has been building up to. It is the game that everybody's talked about since Lane Kiffin landed here in Baton Rouge. And I'm so tired of hearing about Ole Miss. I'm so tired of seeing their fans on social media. All of this, all of that, the biggest thing ever to happen to them. All week long, Oxford, the Grove, college, game day, Lane Kiffin coming back. They're out in security. Hell, they might even throw the National Guard in there. Who knows? They're going to strike the stadium. Everybody up there is angry. Good. I hope they are furious because somewhere along the way, Ole Miss has convinced itself that it is on LSU's level. Guys, it's Ole Miss. This series has been played for more than a century. LSU has spent the overwhelming majority of it reminding Ole Miss exactly where it stands. Ole Miss, yeah, okay.

42:13Hats off you one last year. Congrats. Hang the band or put it right next to the other imaginary championships over there in Oxford because Saturday night is not about last year. It doesn't matter what happened last year. You got the number seven LSU Tigers. Walk it into Oxford. You got 60,000 people who spent nine months convincing themselves that this is the biggest football game of their lives. And that's the difference. For Ole Miss, beating LSU is the season. For LSU, beating Ole Miss is something you're supposed to do. They can have the grove, the chandeliers, all those button-down shirts, the brads and chads, red solo cups. They can have all that stuff, but at 630, you got to leave the cocktail party and you got to go watch two teams play football. And LSU is coming to play ball. You wanted Lane Kiffin back in Oxford. Well, you got him. You got him Saturday night, except this time. He's walking on that field with the LSU Tigers. They can boot and like until they get tired, exhausted, drunk hungover, till they're blue in the face, they can scream, they can throw a tantrum.

43:14Hell, they can even have Morgan Freeman narrate the whole damn thing. Yeah. The whole game, if they win. None of this is going to matter. Going to Oxford, walking their stadium, beat Ole Miss's ass, take the Magnolay ball, remind everybody in Mississippi of something they should have learned a long time ago. You are not LSU. LSU, 34, 21. All right. Like that, Moose. Like that score. 34, 21. I don't know where they got all this twisted. When did they decide they are on LSU's level? Because they want a game. I'm so tired of hearing them. I'm so tired of seeing them. Shut them up. Because in two years, they're going to be back to, you know, eight wins. Eight wins can be about normal for them in a couple of years. They'll be irrelevant. All right. Let's go fart in the wind. Let's go back to studio, Tate Tainal Andre. I'm with Matt.

44:14I am so sick of Ole Miss in this high horse that they have suddenly got on. That Lane Kiffin put them on. And guess what? Lane Kiffin's not there anymore. You have Pete Golding, which no disrespect to him. I'm sure he's a great person. But I'm also sick of all the hype that Pete Golding is getting. And I am not impressed by this defense at all. So I think that LSU is going to run all over them because, duh. And then also, they're... Los Angeles.

46:05I think that's coming. And if you guys don't want to disrespect Pete Golding, hand up. I'll do it. Pete should be Lane's biggest fan because of Lane doesn't leave. They're in a program in the country that would hire Pete Golding to be their head coach. That's just the fact of the matter. Here's what I think. Trinidad Chambers, a lot better quarterback this year than he was at this point a year ago. I get that. You held this offense to 24 points in Oxford last season. Your defense is a whole lot better. I just don't see Ole Miss being able to get to that 24 point threshold. Love Trinidad, love Kiwan Lacey, weapons around them. I've said it all off season. They lost five of their six receivers from a year ago. That concerns me with that questionable defense. I think LSU is going to be able to run the ball late in the game. I like LSU 28-17. I think Ole Miss actually falls off this season. All right.

47:05LSU's going to break him this weekend. That is the final prediction for LSU and Ole Miss and the New Orleans Saints in Baltimore Ravens.

This is Off the Bench with Hester and Flynn. Baton Rouge's go-to for all things Louisiana sports. All right, welcome back in.

49:19It is OTB here live from Rouse's on Burbank and Lee one final segment here. Well, ask the bench brought to you by ice cold dosekis. It is always a great time to go for doats. I got a bunch of dosekis right back here Rouse's too. Bunches up. Already cold. How do you know? Because I like dosekis. I like Rouse's. I like cold beer. Well said. All right, hashtag ask the bench. Well, as you run five, five personnel, I guess, for the game zero five. So I guess we're going no running backs, five tight ends. All right, let's do it a lot. Do we have five? I don't think else you has five tight ends. That's what O5 personnel would be. It would be no running backs and five tight ends. Okay. I am down for it. Why not? Still, once. I don't really get why you would, you know, not just do it with full backs.

50:20Let's go 50 personnel with five full backs. Hashtag asked the bench favorite old piss moment when you were playing. Well, we got asked this question yesterday. I didn't really have an answer because I don't even really remember any Ole Miss memory because it was so irrelevant to me. Yeah. It wasn't a big deal. I think I scored a touchdown in their stadium. One time I threw a touchdown to Benny Brazil at Ole Miss's stadium and our GA at the time, Tracy Smith, who was a signaler. We had these because we would do signaling and we had a joke in practice when I would get in. We would act like he had mittens on. And so he couldn't like move his fingers out. So he would signal with mittens on. So I got in the game and it was a joke. So he's signaled as a joke. He had mittens on his hand. And he ran, I think it was just I ride 144 go and I just threw a touchdown to Benny.

51:22They're the go. The Olympian. Shout out Benny. It's pretty fast. Shout out to B.M. Brazil, our guy. I don't really know. Oh, 405, I don't even remember what year it was. We were beating him by like 40 something and they still tried to know on size kick late in the game. So we were already all out of the game and then we had to go back out there for hands team. Yeah. Right. Me and Joe would die in a couple of us and I remember they kicked the onside kick and I was the guy. You know, there's a front line. And this is the guy right behind him. I was the guy right behind. And so I catch it and I just kind of fall down. We're up by 40. And I remember Joe getting so mad at me because like Joe's like, you had the corner. Like I had a, all you had to do is follow me to score to return for a touchdown. I was like, Joe. Yeah. I was like, we're like, we're about like 45 points. And it'd been cool to have a kick return for a touchdown like on the log. Yeah. My mind wasn't there. My gloves were off. My tape was off my wrist already. Joe, we're not the same guy. Yeah. Joe, you probably go scored. I'm just going to fall down here and get back on the bus and get on the plane.

52:23And then also I remember a trending holiday returning a kick for a touchdown at 07. I was getting a shot in my rib from Dr. Banks. And when he did it, I remember celebrating and like pain shooting down all the way to my toes because I like that. I had been shot. I had like a needle in my ribs when I'm watching the TV of training score in the touchdown. But that needle goes anywhere near Jacob's rear thus squaring it comes. Rip your arms off. I came back in the game though. I actually recovered it on side kicking that one too. Again, brings up a point. But come by a lot still. But come here. Got a bad rap in that movie because of the shot stuff. He did. They happen. People just trying to get his guy back on the field. I wanted to shot every single time. Give it to me. It's the reason. I'm going to have to ask a bench here. Did Jake here kivvin's explanation of running in gun versus under? No, but I didn't. I would love to hear that. I'll be going back. I didn't go back. First thing I do when I get in the car is find that. I'd like to see what that explanation is. Me too. I'd like to hear as a runner back in my style of running. I wanted to be in in eye formation or pistol or ace formation.

53:24I'd love to hear an explanation of why college coaches do the clap count. That's another explanation. I'd like to hear it. What is the benefit? Because there has to be a benefit. People are going to do things because there's a benefit. I'd like to hear it because it's real dumb. Hashtag asked the bench. Well, if you have a spy on Trinidad Chambers, this is more probably a question for you. I think there's going to be an element of a spy. Spy is coming all different types of shapes and sizes. You spy a lot of times when it's man-to-man, sometimes when it's zone, you got just a, it's just powered by numbers. But you know, we were going to run simulated pressures. We're going to be showing pressures and then the line of scrimmage and then dropping seven, dropping eight into coverage. So there's going to be strength in numbers in the secondary that can be able to class. But I will assume that there will be an element of a spy. Somebody that is roaming whether it's from the safety position, lineback position, hell, it might even be a defensive end that's dropping. Blake Baker is prepared for this. Blake Baker is ready for this game and they're going to give him absolute fits this weekend. I can't wait to go Tigers.

54:25Can I wait? It's going to be awesome. I look forward to it. It's here. LSU versus Ole Miss. Tigers by a million. Go Tigers. Boom, boom, boom, boom. See ya. On Monday. Blah the bench.
