Roddy ridiculed our player going into the medical tent, after being blindsided, by saying, “ gotta keep your head on a swivel”, and “can’t just buy a ticket to watch the game”.

hat targeting wasn't even close. Sage Ryan hit the WR with his right shoulder on top of chest. Targeting is leading with the crown of your helmet. Sage's helmet not once touched the Ark WR. They tried to say "Targeting is if you hit any part of your body on their head." That has never been what targeting was. Ever. They just saw a really big hit and instinctively TARGETING TARGETING TARGETING. They even doubled down after the refs corrected the call.


I believe the announcer thought Sage Ryan was white.

Roddy Jones was the tool who seemingly had no idea what he was talking about. Looked up his background and he played for Ga Tech, most notably the ranked Ga Tech team we beat down in the Peach Bowl in 2008.

I'm pleased to say I have no idea what any of you are talking about. Just mute the TV and turn on 870 or listen to the LSU radio feed on YouTube.

Roddy


while the other guy wasn't good, we have had him before. This Roddy guy was absolutely HORRIBLE. How in the hell does he have a job. He obviously did zero homework for this game....the fact that he kept referencing us as a team trying to "catch up to the others" and get us into the "playoff race" tells me he didn't even realize our ranking or record. How can you be that ill prepared? DEI hire is why.

We all know what the deal was…also LSU didn’t allow the narrative to play out by putting up yardage and points against Arky’s defense. Had the game been close or LSU’s offense wasn’t getting it done, they would’ve more coverage of the minority hire.

Anybody else catch in the 1st quarter when they said Weeks (40) would likely be matched up 1 on 1 with an Arky player most of the game and one of the goofballs said “I’d take that matchup all day” in Arkansas’ favor?

I guess they were discounting his high motor and lunch pail work ethic.

Weeks is emerging as one of the best players on the field.

Did y’all notice at the very end of the game, some white Arkansas student had a bunch of bananas and was throwing them to random students and the announcers made a comment about “better not throw that to the wrong person.”

The entire broadcast was fricking weird.


At one point in the first half with us up by 9 I think, one of the announcers said something like "The proclivity of Brian Kelly's teams to implode at the most inopportune times is really the story of the first half isn't it?"

I found that extremely odd and was wondering what the context for that was? Maybe he was just referencing this game and this half, but he said "teams" as though there is a consistent history or "proclivity" of Kelly's teams imploding at inopportune times?

But yeah, they are ESPN's D team as for as College Football goes so you are not going to get an award winning broadcast from them.

Given that the game was on Disney/ESPN, it was my impression that it was intended as a DEI puff piece to lift the coach’s profile.
