The Something to Say Radio Show – September 12th, 2026

Welcome back to the Something to Say radio show on WGSO 990 AM.

Got a lot of football stuff to talk about.

Obviously, we talked a little bit about tailgating in the first half of the show with Melissa Carnigan from Small Sliders.

But now we've got to get to the meat of the matter.

We've got LSU football that kicked off last weekend, and obviously there's been a lot of stories around LSU football so far this season and not a lot of the focus has unfortunately been on the team other than last week them destroying Clemson 51 to 10 piling up 644 yards of offense while holding Clemson to 145 also moving up to number eight in the AP top 25 man did they look good and Sam Levitt, he looked amazing with 343 total yards of offense, throwing for 230 and running for 113 with four touchdowns.

You know, is this the guy that we've been waiting for since Joe Burrow and Jayton Daniels? Boy, I don't want to get too excited about what we saw last weekend, but, boy, they looked like a team that's ready for the big time.

And with all the distractions and everything else that was going on, I think it makes that game a lot more impactful than what it could have been.

We can talk about the SEC-LSU controversy.

LSU filling their 105-man roster without using Daquan Wright and Xavier Harris.

Even if they had done it, do you really think the SEC was going to expel them? I can't imagine.

To me, it was silly.

Do I want to see...

And ex NFL players that can't hack it in the NFL come back and play in college? Absolutely not.

However, it was a situation created by the NCAA.

And it's really I don't foresee this to be an issue moving forward.

But it was all about them changing for five-year eligibility and leaving out the class of 2022.

And they created their own mess.

And unfortunately, LSU was in the middle of it.

And I'm glad that we can put it away and now focus on the task at hand, which is playing football on Saturdays.

So, you know...

I don't know.

I kind of – with Lane Kiffin, I think he is who he is, and he's a darn good football coach.

That's first and foremost.

But there's going to be a lot of other things that come along with it, and he leans into the controversies and into those things.

It probably could have been a little bit more smoothed over had he not at halftime of the game when they're up, what, 30 – So thirty one to three or thirty to three at that point as he's as he's leaving the halftime interview with the with the sideline reporter says, could you imagine what we'd be doing with NFL players? I had to laugh and I couldn't believe at first that he said it.
