Hey, what's going on? This is the Saturday down south podcast. I am Connor O'Gurah.

Well, we're gonna talk a whole lot of national championship here in a second, but I got

to ask from the jump. Watching the Texas Bowl as an LSU fan was like what?

I was confusing. I'm gonna be honest with you. It was really confusing. I didn't really know

how to feel. You have numerous members of the team that are, you know, national champions,

part of maybe the greatest season in college football history, and the end result, kind of,

you know, the swan song for Edo Jaron's tenure at LSU, who is this team with 39 scholarship

players that has a receiver at quarterback. Shout out to John Trey Kirkland, by the way,

who's awesome. I mean, like, it was funny because you know, one of my buddies goes to UCF,

and during that, the bowl game, he played DB, and people were saying, oh, he's, you know,

he's actually a DB. No, no, he's played two positions since that game. Now, the second one is

quarterback. This dude is like, I'm not gonna say build the statue necessarily, but he is the most

L, he's up there with like, Hester in terms of like LSU dudes. Like dudes that would give it all

for LSU. So it was a tough watch. I'll be honest with you. There was a lot of stuff that you want

to be mad at, but honestly, I'm just gonna focus on the positives and how about Pig Cage, man?

Pig. What a great name. If your name is Pig, you're gonna be able to make some plays. I don't

care what your skill set says you can do. If you're Pig Cage, you're getting on the football field,

you're making some plays. Yeah, the Kirkland stuff was, it was cool to see. As much as that

game felt just like a total disaster, and when you are looking at the roster, the coaching staff,

seven GAs or analysts for their 10 on field roles, I mean, that's crazy to think about.

As much as you're looking at this game going, why didn't LSU take a page out of A&M's

playbook and just not play in this one? Still pretty cool to see Kirkland kind of get that
