The LSU football Tigers are just 25 days away from their 2024 season opener in Las Vegas against the USC Trojans. How is Garrett Nussmeier coming along at quarterback, and what about Harold Perkins and the defense? Can LSU get through the early part of the schedule and get to the Ole Miss game at 5-0 and keep their chances going for a shot at the 12-team playoff?

Host Jim Derry brings in our own Wilson Alexander on Wednesday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 263) presented by Evangeline Securities to discuss answer these questions, and on “Wednesdays with Gabe,” Jim and Gabe Henderson have fun with their LSU football Mt. Rushmores, and they share a few from the audience.

We also offer a Saints camp update and talk about the newly released depth chart heading into the preseason opener against the Arizona Cardinals on Saturday. In the “Extra Point,” Jim goes back 31 years to when 46-year-old Nolan Ryan beat the ever-loving snot out of 26-year old Robin Ventura.

LSU football updates and our Mt. Rushmore with Wilson Alexander; Saints depth chart talk on Ep. 263

Dattitude premiered in September 2021 to focus on what's important to sports fans in south Louisiana. While we focus on the Saints, we also talk plenty about the Pelicans, LSU, Tulane, Prep, sports betting, fantasy sports and all the big-time sports events happening in and around New Orleans. Host Jim Derry brings more than 33 years of experience covering sports in the region, and he'll "always tell you the way it is ... or at least the way he THINKS it is."
