Southeastern Conference

Yeah.

Sec- it was actually sick.

[laughs]

He lined up as a halfback-

Mm.

Second piece of good news is that I am finally reengaging with activism after feeling paralyzed so far this term.

I'm attending my county's Democratic meeting, writing postcards, and putting election signs in my yard.

Feels good to be doing something instead of just doom scrolling.

Yeah, when you, when y- [laughs] when you're the worst senator from your state and your only competition is Josh Hawley, you might be Eric Schmitt."

Yeah, no shit.

"Second, I just wanna thank you both for not only keeping me informed but for motivating me to find ways to get more involved and engaged.

I'm serving as a poll worker," awesome, "for the first time in this midterm election.

Tech, UL, and ULM play in the top tier of Division I, called Football Subdivision, the same level as LSU.

Pryor said the schools belong in Division I's second tier, called the Football Bowl Subdivision, FCS, along with Grambling, McNeese, Nichols, and Northwestern State and Southeastern.

Schools are trying to play D1 football, and that's just a sinking hole trying to play D1 football.

I don't think much of the public would know the difference if they all play at the same level, and it seems like they have to have self-realization and put humble cap on that they have to have some humble pie.

Now it's about 45 minutes south of Lafayette, but where do you think they're gonna go to school? They're gonna go to McNeese.

They're gonna go to the Cajuns.

They're gonna go to Southeastern.

They're gonna go to LSU, right? The amount of billions of dollars that is gonna be influxed into that area over the next handful of years, going to do nothing but help those institutions and if you don't think that's going to flow to the athletic department i think you're insane all right um you're going to get more kids going to the school you're going to get more kids going to the game and it's not like the cajuns the cajuns spent a lot of money on napier um spent a lot of money making that football stadium, which I think is gorgeous.

Uh, I got another cousin that went to Auburn.

It's interesting when you talk, uh, college football, why people like the teams they do.

Um, I'm old school.

I'm from the 1900s.

It's a good one.

But I became a Georgia fan because my father was a Georgia fan.

The Junkyard Dogs of 1976, that's probably the first – I barely remember those teams.

Where I started really following Georgia football was my mom and dad made a financial decision – In 1979, because you got to remember, we didn't have our phones and you didn't have footage of high school players.

I think even if it looks ugly, like it did winning that game, just gives you a certain level of confidence.

Whereas this is the first time for Auburn, first-time starting quarterback at Aaron Philo and this Georgia coaching staff that they've gone on the road and got on the road in the SEC Auburn at night tough place to play and that defense is very good for Auburn so I think I don't know I didn't think I was going to pick Florida this morning or Auburn this morning but but I think I'm going to now give me the Tigers

I want Auburn to win.

I think Florida will win because they can score points.

He deserves every bit of it.

Well, I've got to ask, Coach, before we let you go, you mentioned your coaching tree.

What is it like for you to see guys that you led and kind of mentored have success at the highest level, like you have multiple SEC head coaches that were on your staff at one point and helped you win championships? What's that feeling like for

you? One of them is getting some golf balls thrown at him in Oxford, Mississippi this weekend.

And so you end up getting your quarterback beat up.

Well, we'll have some pauses when we come back because we're going to quit talking Titans and talk about the SEC, University of Tennessee, Vanderbilt, and a couple different things going on there with Chris Phillips of SEC Unfiltered.
