let's freaking go LSU fans we get the home opener but I have got I have got got to start with you know who losing again I thought Marshall was one thing but everybody was circling the wagons when Notre Dame beat the powerful powers that beat otherwise known as Texas A&M and what did Notre Dame fans do what did they do they they told you how bad Brian Kelly was on Sunday Notre Dame fans were yelling from the rooftops telling you that Brian K is a noot just for their young hot shot coach to lose another laughable one and this message goes out to The Great Mike denrock who I think was fantastic while he was at LSU but it's amazing it is a amazing how hard play calling gets when you don't have Jaden Daniels back there now I know what a lot of you guys say well Carter you are putting out bad mojo because we got to play Nicholls and what if Brian Kelly lays an egg versus Nichols well I will tell you this and we'll move on from Notre and we'll move on from Arkansas doing the biggest choke job in the history of Choke jobs earlier today out gaining Oklahoma State 630 to 385 and they still lost I don't know how that even happens but Arkansas the Hogs are going to hog y'all the truth Remains the Same with Brian Kelly historically the teams that he is supposed to beat he not only beats them he hammers him and that has been the case at LSU every non- Power five team LSU has played they have covered with ease the point spread for tonight has floated in the high 30s right I don't think think LSU is going to cover that tonight I think Nicholls will find some ways to move the football but I feel this game has a 42 to 17 kind of feel to it right I think Brian Kelly's really going to want to get this run game going and Really Gonna want to get this run game confident so I don't think they'll be throwing the football all over the yard um I think you'll see a lot of runs which obviously will burn the clock a little bit more so I actually do like Nicholls to cover the spread tonight I actually really really really do like it um and and Nicholls is a somewhat decent team so over the past few years you've seen LSU play a lot of week two games versus really bad teams so last year they played Grambling Grambling actually had some success they just couldn't finish drives and the year before they played Southern and Southern was losing 37 to zero with two minutes left to go in the first quarter so you know this week two game has been easy breezy for LSU under Brian Kelly Nicholls is not only better than obviously Southern and Grambling LSU also had to make a CrossCountry trip back to Baton route so you have the team that flew back in after the game versus USC they fly back in at five: in the morning all right so it's 5 in the morning when they get back in and it's a short week so I could see LSU be very very very clunky tonight I am a big believer in the carian Rhythm I know I didn't say that smoothly at all or how it's supposed to be announced I do think there is a world where LSU looks sluggish I I do but Nicholls is not that good they're I mean they're not that good compared to LSU they're actually a fine football team but it is um it's it's it's going to be tough it's going to be very tough all right so AP says I won't see I hope I don't see a Notre Dame fan for months Andrew says uh y'all know they're not going to count this loss of Notre Dame yeah I wonder what happens if Notre Dame wins out do they still make the playoff I don't think they should you should not still make the playoff with the lost to Northern Illinois okay um lanet says where do I watch the game it's not on YouTube TV yeah you do have to watch it on ESPN plus uh so I do think you have to watch it on the ESPN app I don't know I watch everything on the ESPN app um yes so LSU confirms tonight's opener between LSU and Nichols is only available through ESPN streaming providers which honestly is somewhat rare right normally all LSU games just make it somewhere on ESPN but it is a little bit different now that there's no CBS anymore and of course you have 16 teams in the conference so it does switch things up now one thing of note and we'll talk more about this in the post game and throughout the week I have not watched a lick of this game but next week's opponent South Carolina put a beat down on Kentucky now what have I told you for years about Kentucky what have I told you for years that the most fraudulent of fraudulent coaches to ever breathe in the SEC is Mark stops all right and a lot of you have said well Carter you're just a hater uh you've gone in too hard on Mark stops just for me to be and I get a lot wrong I get a lot wrong I mean Conor wigman has made me look really dumb huh H but the one thing I've been unequivocally correct about is Mark stops is a disaster okay absolute disaster all right so as we always do pregame we go through injuries and all of that Garrett delinger questionable I would be shocked uh I think Chris Hilton and Kyle Parker out I would be shocked if gar deler goes tonight I wouldn't risk him and you're able to get Tyree Adams some some very good snaps and then on top of that uh you know you will see DeShaun speed and kylin Jackson start tonight as Jordan Allen is dealing with uh a lower body injury and of course Jordan Gilbert uh who's been banged up throughout his career he missing in the first half tonight um due to the suspension on the targeting okay I do see a pretty big night for Harold Perkins right this should be a game in which he dominates and I want to see him be patient as well right play the off ball linebacker position the way it's supposed to be played okay um which you know requires a lot of Pat we'll see what happens here all right some more pregame images as you can see Des wil CJ Daniels West weeks who is a captain tonight along with Mason Taylor and Wht weeks and that's zavon Thomas in the bottom right corner as you know one of my favorite players on this team okay uh and here's a photo here of Garrett nus me so not as much like pregame content just floating around and it makes a lot of sense because well um LSU is playing a nobody okay I am interested to see how uh the energy will be tonight am I doing a watch show I am not I'll do a halftime show and I'll do a postgame show so we'll do our normal halftime show uh for the uh halftime show I you I I stream most of the third quarter from the game uh and I really enjoyed doing that so we might do that uh this year let's go to Taylor who just joined our patreon and by the way welcome 8 to the channel I am a huge Dragon Ball Z fan I do not know this character name right looks like young Piccolo uh so let's go here good creative run schemes by Texas in the Michigan game yeah and there was that I watched that game uh very sparingly because uh I do have a job on the SEC channel and my main job on the SEC channel has been Arkansas Razer Max Tennessee Volunteers those guys destroy my SEC channel so I mostly focused on them I will do a Texas film study I was able to watch some of it didn't really Shock Me that Texas took care of business there um with Michigan's offit of struggles but Texas had to get creative in the Run game with Mason Graham who's I think a glen dorsy level Talent at defensive tackle so give Texas a lot of credit uh the difference here is Joe son is still young in his career and Steve sarkeesian I mean how many play callers are you taking over Sark right now in college football Lane Lincoln and that's probably it right you can make a case for uh deor you could make a case for him and there's some other young guys that are really like who I think I can buy low on uh if I was a D1 poweri program I would go get unlv's guy BR Maran I think he's very interesting uh but Joe s's trying to be a young really talented LSU offensive coordinator I hope he does have more creative run designs uh one team that actually ran the football very effectively today was Arkansas and what was interesting watching the Arkansas game they ran basically the same schemes we ran versus USC what's the difference well Arkansas has uh a dual threat quarterback so the Zone read polls were uh a little bit as to why they had success I also think USC's front was very undervalued right and we I I grew on that on their defensive front as I watch them more and more leading into the game so I do think we'll see better schemes going in uh to tonight I also think Taylor you'll see the same schemes actually work because you're just going up against Le uh lesser talent I also and we did a podcast on this on patreon uh earlier this week and Taylor is our latest Patron simper as well who supers is also a patron uh I'll be honest there is one superstar fishu that had a terrible terrible game last week uh and it's rare he's never I I would say this he's never had a terrible terrible game and this was the only terrible terrible game he's had in what like 27 starts now it's it's roughly around the number was emry Jones um he he had a tough game I expect emry Jones to be unfreaking believably good and the times where he's had some struggles he would come out next week and just murder people I still think G Jones is going to be a first round pick in next year's NFL Draft no worse than a second round pick and I think he is going to be an all secc offensive lineman by the end of the season last week was just a struggle game some some some players just have rough games so I think emry Jones is going to come out and have an absolutely ginormous game and they're gonna need him because let's say Gary delinger is not going tonight which I don't think he will go um we'll see here in a few minutes if he actually does start you you're going to have to run to the right side probably a little bit more because Tyreek Adams in at left guard and you know you feel better about the right side of the offens line but you know miles Frasier going into uh the the game last week was also dealing with u some some injuries but I expect Emy Jones huge bounceback game tonight from one of the best players on the team okay so let go to carvis who says there's going to be a lot of upsets in the SEC this year I especially in the SEC I agree I agree um I I will will tell you this all right remember last week I was telling you how uh LSU schedule got a bit easier from what you know we all saw in week one this week it actually got a lot harder South Carolina I know it was Kentucky and you guys know how much I hate Kentucky and you know how much I I I don't hate Kentucky at all I just have always told the truth about Mark stupes my entire media career and go back uh to when I was actually uh doing media five 10 years ago not 10 years right like five six years ago I was telling you hey Mark s's didn't really beating anybody and I know it's Kentucky but even though I'm the biggest Mark stops you know skeptic to go into Lexington and beat them down like that is still something uh after South Carolina struggled with the Old Dominion so South Carolina looked better and Arkansas looked really good today Arkansas looked like a top half SEC team today so you have to play them later this season after a buy uh some tricky games so you have 11:00 a.m. game once again short Vegas week then you have to play this night game then you have to go on the road and play your only 11 A.M game here in week three with a lot of young guys so it's uh it's going to be an interesting next couple of weeks for LSU I still think they beat South Carolina I still think they beat Arkansas but those games did become tougher today with both of those teams playing phenomenally Arkansas just choked it away okay uh Carvey said something interesting why not see emry Jones at guard and put Tyree Adams at the other tackle uh you know I I I would like that as well but they're goingon to want G delinger back in the lineup they're gonna want they're going to want Garr delinger back and that's just probably too much shuffling just for the sake of shuffling um I would just do the one oneto one fit here um but look Garrett might miraculously play tonight I would play him though if I was Brian Kelly I understand he knows the situation way better than me but I wouldn't do it I wouldn't do it so my Jaden Daniels uh tweet is uh going crazy um it is what it is huh huh I just tweet out Simply it's hard to call plays when Jaden Daniels is not your quarterback right and you know that that tweet is a shot of Mike denrock obviously but it's also you know a tougher situation for us right you know as great as Garrett was you know we tend to forget how many like one of one plays Jaden Daniels made last year as in he's probably the only person on the planet outside of just a few others that could have made some of the plays he made last year so you know Garrett was phenomenal I think he's going to continue to be phenomenal and I think we're going to get a bounceback game tonight from a lot of tigers I think a big night's in store for Greg Pinn uh because because these things tend to happen when you know a few years ago when Greg Pinn uh you know LSU was thinking about playing to Mario Tolen a little bit over Greg Pinn a few years ago Greg pinn's Play Just magically got better versus Arkansas he was phenomenal phenomenal now it help once again that Arkansas had a backup quarterback playing but you know I think Greg pinn's GNA come out and have a really good game tonight and I hope so you you we the number 18 uh I hope he has a phenomenal phenomenal season but if you know one thing about LSU over the past couple of Seasons we rarely pick the right starting linebacker Duo it's it's rare that the two guys that they initially pick turn out to be your two guys right um and and that's that's just been a harsh reality right we don't have Micah basker to come in and save the day like we've had um you we didn't have him last year Micah Bas probably makes us a better defense and and he's always just kind of done it as kind of like a backup is kind of player okay good to see you Reggie uh glad to see you're healthy man you're a fighter brother Jason good to see you as well let's go to uh as so Taylor runs me to break down Texas's Run game okay I'll do a film study and posted on power R later this week just for you Taylor by the way okay uh you know Taylor join our patreon he is extremely talented he's actually a better YouTuber than mine uh he created one of the most breathtaking LSU baseball documentar I've ever seen now full disclosure I've not watched it all the way through but it's no fluff straight to the point most the highlights it is phenomenal absolutely phenomenal so if you're a paulski Dylan Cruz like Kade boso Super Fan make sure you go check it out I'll link it I'll talk about it later this week it's kind of tough right now with the game uh get to see Kim M in and Tiger Stadium obviously uh congrats also to Angel ree she launched her podcast so Angel if you need any tips or if you need a guest angel I know you need the uh I know you need the ratings boost Angel and you guys know I produced numbers I'm a numbers guy huh so we also we hopefully see I think a lot of us are just interested to see this especially our viewers in Lafayette we are just interested to see if Jaan Johnson gets some carries tonight I think you'll see it but it'll be in the fourth quarter when the game is completely out of hand it honest to God even if let's just say Jaan Johnson stepped in and had a better practice than Kaden Durham okay CJ Daniels catches the pass we're underway um even if it's even if it's the case let let's just say um let let let's just say that Kaden Durham isn't like up to speed on everything I still want to see him play a lot tonight all right so we'll do this first drive it's already started CJ Daniels catches a pass to the right side okay all right got a penalty false start okay this has been an issue for us let's see if it's on Will Will Campbell again third on the season very weird so Shel Samson gets the start that's interesting Brian Kelly once again if you listen to his press conferences he will tell you what he's going to do okay okay so let's see here motion all right that's Zone let's run on this there we go no we're just rping this to Aaron there you go Aaron get a nice gain there get those yards back look Kaden Durham's in y'all he's in immediately with zavon Thomas okay this is kind of like uh the lineup it's a kind of the meat lineup here and I would do anything for kayen to bust one give him the ball baby give kayen the ball nus deep shot Samson okay out of bounds obviously young receiver mistake that was good him catching it at its highest point just ran the route too close to the sideline that's a good question here from from Pierce the good thing is Will Campbell's actually like playing well right it's just these FSE starts are just weird very weird all right so third and nine okay I just run a stop you know it's there you go if he's blitzing just run a stop right behind it I doubt so he's going to back out of that yep oh God why why was he untouched why was he untouch right there no energy y'all look we're dead man we are freaking dead Okay so pton Todd's puning here no ashendorf interesting okay let's see if I can pull up a legal stream okay good play wi weeks all right see what happened here it's kind of tough for me to see what happened on that Blitz see ah okay I see it God they're gonna get they're going to flag him for that no they didn't I don't know nobody was even open that's the issue that's a rough rough rough rough series second and seven good Play Let's Go PJ one thing I am very happy Blake baker has brought to isue is the corner Blitz I love a good Corner Blitz baby once again one of my favorite plays was Nicholls covering do you think they'll cover was it plus plus 40 okay all right we should be able to get home here with the pass rush there we go there you go Wht weeks man making plays what else is new okay adriyan playing safety looks like Jordan Allen out there too God Whit weeks just makes plays and he pops right back up like a freaking athlete all right we'll do one more offensive drive and then we'll be back for the halftime show oh man are you kidding me I dude D that there's nothing all right I understand I'm an LSU fan I understand I want LSU to win but nothing nothing drives me crazier when I'm watching a huge Underdog do a self-inflicted wound like that okay it drives me crazy when I see that okay because let's just let's just be honest if you weren't an LSU okay if you weren't an LSU fan you you would want you you would want uh you would want the underdog right God just just throwing the game away zavon Thomas zav on Thomas dude and a late hit I mean for for Joan Johnson ran Johnson getting Malik's old number okay third and six Elie's done a good job running on these Downs I love running on these Downs okay short gotta go for it gotta go for it man Freddy that would be a good thing there you go Caleb see now now if you're going to run on Fourth and short that's what you should do have some motions Don't just run inside Zone left have a Jet Sweep have some eye candy well done oh Jason come on that's just not true that's been that's been fine okay look hurry up hurry up and run the same play Same play there shouldn't even there shouldn't even be a there's no need to even signal in a play just run the same play uh you see I'm wouldn't have so they bring in BO bordon here off it's Al lineman who got moved to a blocking tight in roll I you see I just wouldn't have even done all this I would have just run the same play now you're tightening the formation which makes it even easier to defend you see it just makes no sense I'm sitting here telling you this it makes no sense my God why why why are we why do we have to do that why run run the hurry up that makes no sense okay I understand we got the first down cool run a hurry up you pound it in immediately keep it spread out don't don't don't just don't bring blocking tight in just for the sake of it there you go throw out of it there we go see that's better get TR as greens first CD there we go know now I'll take that result
