I jotted down what I could:

-Proud of team and staff. Wanted to attack the whole game, later added that there’s a line to walk between going tempo and resting your defense
- Happy about the no turnovers and low number of penalties. We work on it because if something’s broke, we want to fix it
- Single out Ed Alexander, White, Delpit, and long snapper as having good games. Gave big ups to Delpit on fake FG
- Tough Miss State team who’ve changed up their offense and rushed for 340+ tds vs Auburn. Later added they’re tough physical and a totally different challenge than preparing for GA
Took Questions.
-commented about injury situation on O line. I missed it
- E ALEXANDRR still battling lower extremity injuries will rest some during week
- commented on play of HINES Mostly positive
-LOGAN had his best game
- LSU used a lot of 3 man pass rushes vs Ga
- DIVINITY is tough, serious, smart, nice spin move, comes to play
-Ga coach very complimentary of JOE BURROW particularly making changes at LOS.
- THADEUS MOSS “ I’m trying to figure it out myself, he wants to play, but when he tries, he can’t.”
-LSU has 1415 yards rushing and 1415 yards passing this season?
- Ensminger prepares from A-Z and staff is cohesive
-JACOBY, KIRKLIN, and MCMATH outstanding athletes whose skills we are trying to use by getting them involved
-AVERY ATKINS aggressive, stocky, can battle. 4.0 GPA. Loved seeing him jump on fumble.
-PROFANITY - not his business. Loves fans, would prefer those words not be used
-o line played well against a good GA front. We practice and recruit physicality (offense and defense) we don’t want you if your not physical
-Miss St QB is strong and can run. Big game. Physical game
-CLYDE/BROSSETTE each have playscdesigned for their different skills

Is this coach speak for "he sucks at football?"

Has he said anything about our Fair-Catch unit?

I have a terrible feeling that the lack of "hidden-yards" in the punt return game is going to bite us in the arse in a huge game this year.

This is definitely O just following the company line. It fires the players up which helps the team. O obviously is totally fine with it.

Moss probably feeling a ton of pressure being the son of a legend.

Hope he can get it together. Sounds like he's trying to get out there before he's physically ready. That's a recipe for disaster.

Avery Atkins is awesome. Fitting that on one of the few kicks that have been returned all season he's the one that recovered the fumble. Can't wait until they give him a scholarship.

Why didn't Auburn take him? He literally went to Auburn High School.

I never expect any coach to say "I love the profanity!" at a press conference.

I was surprised to see Giles back out there after his game at Florida. The only thing I can figure is that despite his questionable fair catches and lack of explosiveness...he does typically catch the ball cleanly, doesn't try to force a return when he shouldn't (Tre White).

Makes me wonder if the other options they've looked at have been shaky fielding punts. We absolutely could get more out of the punt return game...but at this point Giles is safe with the ball.

I know we say this about Giles, but re-watching the game, there wasn't a single punt he fielded that was returnable.

He's had a couple of opportunities here and there throughout the season, but whatever we're doing with our rush and punt return blocking is allowing defenders to usually surround Giles.

Gotta love the honesty, though.
