You have to admire BK's attention to detail re: the 11am kickoff

Having the team stretch at a dealership during the drive to Starkvegas, blaring music and having them up for the game.

Its clear he thought it was a concern and had a plan for it, and this team was up and ready to roll.

Scouting for NIL deals at the same time, I like it

Let them listen to music each game if that’s what helps.

After UT last year, I’m glad.

We should never play at 11am in the South. Leave that to Big 10 teams with ice on the ground in late September. Give us the prime and 2:30 slots while they get their games over and done with to avoid the cold of night.

I admire the game plan and execution. Stopping to walk through the plays and playing music is probably something anyone could have done.

That's the thing about coaching, if you fail you'll get criticized for the expression on your face during a timeout, but if you succeed you will be praised for wiping your arse with toilet paper.

Frankly the team could have slept in and woke up an hour before the game and beaten Moo State. I would rather the individuals follow their own pre game ritual than force everything on everyone. Not that it mattered, but the OLine seemed a bit off.

talk to the SEC and the TV networks, because it's in their contracts.

It may have been the best 11am game I ever recall from an LSU standpoint of dominating the opponent from the opening kickoff and not sleep walking through the 1st Q. Even the 2019 Vandy game wasn't as impressive as this one.

I have a hard time liking anything I saw regarding kickoff defense. That has to improve before we gift wrap a TD in a close game.

Why’d they stay 1hr away?

The team treated Saturday like a business trip and it paid off. Looking forward to watching them in Tiger Stadium this Saturday.

Sleeping in a cow pasture wasn’t in the teams best interest.

It wasn’t just the 11 am kick. Kelly has been very open about being aware of our tendency to getting off to slow starts last year, and is making changes to try to prevent that from happening this year. We can’t count on spotting teams 10+ points in the 1st half and flipping a switch and come back.

Yeah. I don't think ND plays many games before noon. It looks like another "learning from out mistakes" moment.
