LSU-TAMU preview, Pels’ opener takeaways, HS Play of the Week | PODnas

by Louisiana vs. All Y'all
written by Louisiana vs. All Y'all

A rainy Tiger Stadium stage is set for one of the nation’s top matchups of the NCAA’s Week 9 slate.

No. 20 LSU (5-2, 2-2) badly needs a bounce-back win not only to keep its slimming College Football Playoff hopes on life support, but to revive the spiraling vibes from around a fan base intensely turning (further) on coach Brian Kelly.

But, standing in the way: An undefeated No. 3 Texas A&M (7-0, 4-0) that would love nothing more than to drive a further stake into the Tigers’ season, but is still searching for its first win in Baton Rouge since joining the SEC more than a decade ago.

The storyline-loaded showdown is the focal point of Louisiana’s Saturday night — and of a week in which Louisiana vs. All Y’all’s “PODnas” are (or at least one of them is) having a tough time remaining confident.

Jerit Roser and Daniel Hawkes preview the Tigers-Aggies matchup, among other notable games around the state and country, in the latest episode of the show.

The guys also share some immediate takeaways from the New Orleans Pelicans’ season-opener and announce the latest winner of the Top High School Play of the Week honors: Madison Prep state Landon “Manu” Johnson for his nonchalant, one-handed catch in the end zone.

Make sure to keep up with all the new episodes of “PODnas” or catch up on other video content on the Louisiana vs. All Y’all channel.

“PODnas” episodes are scheduled for Tuesday and Friday mornings during football season to recap and preview the biggest games and storylines with a particular focus on Louisiana.

Louisiana college football schedule for Week 9

by Louisiana vs. All Y'all
written by Louisiana vs. All Y'all

A largely tough Week 8 for Louisiana’s college football programs has already spilled into Week 9 with Louisiana Tech’s 28-27 overtime loss to Western Kentucky on Tuesday.

Nine of the state’s other teams will be in action Saturday, including No. 20 LSU hosting a top-20 SEC home game against No. 3 Texas A&M and a Southland Conference showdown between McNeese State and Nicholls State in Hammond.

Only Tulane is idle this weekend ahead of a Thursday, Oct. 30, trip to UTSA.

Grambling State, McNeese State and Southeastern Louisiana will aim to build on Week 8 success — and a three-game winning streak for Southeastern — while LSU, Louisiana (Lafayette), ULM, Nicholls State, Northwestern State and Southern — in interim coach Fred McNair’s debut — will try to rebound from losses.

La Tech, Tulane, ULM wins among Louisiana colleges’ Week 5 highlights

by Louisiana vs. All Y'all
written by Louisiana vs. All Y'all

LSU suffering its first loss of the season on a frustrating afternoon at Ole Miss dominated headlines Saturday.

But all four of Louisiana’s other FBS programs earned big early-season victories, highlighted by a memorable comeback and two-overtime win by Louisiana (Lafayette).

Louisiana Tech and Tulane won on the road as UTEP and Tulsa, respectively, and ULM took care of business at home against Arkansas State.

Here’s a look at how the state’s Division-I programs fared.

[LSU’s lingering shortcomings prove costly at Ole Miss.]

[D’Wanye’ “Lunch” Winfield leads thrilling Cajuns comeback.]

TULANE SHAKES BACK IN AAC OPENER

The Green Wave (4-1, 1-0) rebounded effectively from last week’s lopsided loss at Ole Miss, their first of the season, to start American Athletic Conference play on the right foot.

Tulane never trailed Saturday at Tulsa (2-3, 0-2), pacing the teams’ back-and-forth opening quarter and a half before scoring 17 unanswered points in the second and third quarters and shutting out the Golden Cyclones in the second half.

Freshman running back Javin Gordon rushed 15 times for 78 yards and three touchdowns, and junior Arnold “Duda” Barnes III (Booker T. Washington-NO) added 48 yards on eight carries.

Quarterback Jake Retzlaff and the passing attack also shook back with his 17-for-30 (56.7%) day for 242 yards, led by Omari Hayes‘ four catches for 89 yards and Shazz Preston‘s five for 54.

Sophomore safety Jack Tchienchou and senior linebacker Sam Howard tied for the team lead with seven tackles each.

Sophomore linebacker Dickson Agu (Dutchtown) recoveryed a fumble, sophomore defensive back Jahiem “Joker” Johnson (Hammond) intercepted a pass and junior defensive lineman Santana Hopper‘s 1.5 sacks led a six-sack team effort.

LATECH SHUTS OUT UTEP INTO FOURTH

Louisiana Tech (4-1, 2-0) shut out UTEP (1-4, 0-1) into the fourth quarter Saturday. And when the Miners finally scratched the scoreboard, the Bulldogs’ defense outscored its hosts with a pair of interceptions returned for touchdowns.

Both senior Jakari Foster and freshman Alonzo Jackson Jr. (Haynesville) found the end zone from 67 and 23 yards, respectively, to help highlight a five-pick performance and punctuate the 30-11 win.

Sophomore quarterback Blake Baker finished 18-for-26 (69%) for 137 yards, a 5-yard first-quarter touchdown to junior receiver Marques Singleton Jr., and an interception. And sophomore Clay Thevenin rushed for Louisiana Tech’s lone offensive score of its 20-point fourth quarter.

Senior linebacker Kolbe Fields (Archbishop Rummel) led the Bulldogs with eight tackles and interception, and Jackson had six stops, including 1.5 for loss, to go with his interception.

Junior defensive back Michael Richard Jr. (Edna Karr) and senior linebacker Sifa Leota joined Fields, Foster and Jackson with picks.

ULM DEFENSE SETTLES IN, SACKS WOLVES

Saturday evening in Malone Stadium didn’t start pretty as Arkansas State housed an early interception and built a 10-point lead that lasted most of the first half.

But ULM’s disruptive defense wouldn’t allow the Red Wolves (1-4, 0-1) an offensive touchdown all night, and the Warhawks (3-1, 1-0) finally found their scoring spark with a pair of touchdowns before the break en route to the 28-16 victory.

Sophomore quarterback Aidan Armenta completed 16 of his 25 (64%) of his passes for 175 yards and touchdowns to sophomore receiver Jake Godfrey and senior tight end Julian Nixon, and senior Zach Palmer-Smith and junior Braylon McReynolds led the ground game with 84 and 73 yards, respectively, and a score each.

Senior defensive back Kristopher Robinson finished with a team-high eight tackles, including one for loss, and an interception, and senior defensive lineman Dylan Howell‘s two sacks led five Warhawks to bring down the quarterback.

SLU CRUISES TO SOUTHLAND-OPENING VICTORY

Southeastern Louisiana (3-2, 1-0) scored three early touchdowns Saturday and never allowed UT Rio Grande Valley (4-1, 0-1) back within single digits in the teams’ Southland Conference opener.

Junior running back Deantre Jackson (Edna Karr) rushed 13 times for 121 yards and a touchdown, and junior wide receiver Jaylon Domingeaux (Comeaux) caught seven passes for 107 yards and a score.

Quarterbacks Carson Camp and Kyle Lowe finished a combined 20-for-25 for 252 yards and three touchdowns, plus another rushing, and running back Jaedon Henry and pass-catchers Kentrell Prejean (Teurlings Catholic) and Adyn Wilkinson (Central) all reached the end zone.

An interception by senior defensive back Ian Conerly-Goodly (Covington) and sacks by defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor (Oak Grove), linebacker Joshua Randall (Edna Karr) and defensive back Khamron Ford highlighted a balanced defensive effort.

SOUTHLAND, SWAC LOSSES

Southeastern Louisiana’s in-state league mates, McNeese State (1-4, 0-1) and Nicholls State (1-4, 0-3), were not so fortunate as they each suffered road losses at Stephen F. Austin (3-2, 1-0) and Eastern Kentucky (2-3).

Grambling State (3-2, 0-1) and Southern (1-4, 0-1) each lost their SWAC openers to Prairie View A&M (3-2, 2-0) and Jackson State (3-1, 1-0).

Continued Arch Manning confidence, 2023 LA QBs; plus 2026-28 updates | Recruit Dat Boot

by Louisiana vs. All Y'all
written by Louisiana vs. All Y'all

Even quiet weeks in regards to commitment movement still feature plenty of recruiting-relevant topics to discuss.

For this week’s Louisiana vs. All Y’all “Recruit Dat Boot,” cohosts Jerit Roser and Sam Spiegelman shared some thoughts on the start to former Isidore Newman star Arch Manning‘s tenure as the Texas Longhorns’ starting quarterback, as well as a little love for his fellow passers from the state’s talented 2023 class.

Eli Holstein (Zachary) had a great 2024 at Pittsburgh and has put up even stronger numbers early in 2025, Rickie Collins (Woodlawn-Baton Rouge) is taking on a bigger role at Syracuse following Steven Angeli’s injury and C’zavian “Zae” Teasett (Scotlandville) has led Grambling State to back-to-back comeback wins.

Plus, the NCAA Oversight Committee voted to eliminate the spring transfer portal window for football, and Sam and Jerit share some updates on a few 2026, 2027 and 2028 prospects — committed seniors being pushed by other programs for potential flips and juniors and sophomores starting to gain some early recruiting traction.

A few current high school prospects of note featured in this week’s episode: Ouachita Parish defensive lineman Dylan Berymon (Texas), Captain Shreve running back Jamarcea Plater (Wake Forest), St. Thomas More quarterback Cole Bergeron (Virginia Tech), Lafayette Christian wide receiver Brayden Allen (Tulane), 2027 Alexandria edge rusher Bryson Phoenix and 2028 Ruston running back Dalen Powell, among others.

Make sure to keep an eye on the Louisiana vs. All Y’all channel for fresh episodes of “Recruit Dat Boot” every week, which will typically be scheduled for release on Wednesday mornings — with occasional exceptions such as this week.

The good, bad, ugly of CFB Week 3, plus Saints, HS Top Plays | PODnas

by Louisiana vs. All Y'all
written by Louisiana vs. All Y'all

Garrett Nussmeier and the LSU offense looked more like themselves, and northeast Louisiana’s trio of college programs all notched big early-season wins.

Still, college football’s Week 4 action — not to mention the New Orleans Saints on Sunday (seriously, do we have to mention that?) — carried enough frustration to spark the organic birth of a potential new “Football Therapist” segment.

Louisiana vs. All Y’all’s “PODnas,” Jerit Roser and Daniel Hawkes recapped and unpacked all the good, the bad and the ugly of the weekend’s performances in the latest episode of the show.

From the Tigers’ progress and wins for Louisiana Tech, ULM and Grambling State, to brutal Saturdays for Louisiana (Lafayette), Tulane and the Southland and, sadly, yes, the Saints’ road trip to Seattle that got off the rails with the quickness.

And, of course, the ever-consistent early-week highlight: Four candidates for “PODnas” High School Play of the Week.

Featured in this week’s top plays: Holy Cross senior running back Ke’Rynn Smith, Calvary Baptist junior defensive back Braylun Huglon, Ouachita Parish senior athlete Wydell Clark Jr. and Alexandria junior quarterback Karsen Sellers and sophomore running back Kason Williams.

Check out the complete episode for all the takeaways and reactions and visit the “PODnas” Instagram to vote for this week’s winner.

Make sure to keep up with all the new episodes of “PODnas” or catch up on other video content on the Louisiana vs. All Y’all channel.

“PODnas” episodes are scheduled for Tuesday and Friday mornings during football season to recap and preview the biggest games and storylines with a particular focus on Louisiana.

LaTech, ULM, Grambling wins help highlight Week 4

by Jerit Roser
written by Jerit Roser

The trio of northeast Louisiana programs and LSU helped salvage an otherwise rough Week 4 for the state’s Division-I college programs.

Louisiana Tech and ULM started strong at home and on the road, respectively, and held off rally attempts to secure wins vs. Southern Miss and at UTEP. And Grambling State scored the final 10 points at home to upend visiting East Texas A&M.

Here’s a look at all those games, plus tough losses for Tulane, Louisiana (Lafayette), McNeese State, Nicholls State and Northwestern State.

[Click here for more on LSU’s 56-10 roll past Southeastern Louisiana.]

LOUISIANA TECH NOTCHES BIG WIN VS. SOUTHERN MISS

A 48-yard pick-six by linebacker Kolbe Fields (Archbishop Rummel) highlighted 20 unanswered Louisiana Tech points before halftime to notch a big early-season win against Southern Miss, 30-20.

A touchdown run late in the first quarter by Omiri Wiggins (Acadiana), the Fields score on the Eagles’ following possession and then a Clay Thevenin goal-line run just before the break combined to open a 10-10 tie into a 30-10 advantage.

And though the Bulldogs (3-1) slogged through a scoreless second half on offense, their defense continued to slow Southern Miss (2-2) enough to hang on for the victory.

Blake Baker finished 15-for-21 for 239 yards and rushed 13 times for 29 yards and a score, and Eli Finley caught six passes for 155 yards.

Fields finished with a team-high nine tackles.

ULM HOLDS OFF UTEP

ULM (2-1) opened a three-score lead by halftime and four-score lead by midway through the third quarter Saturday in El Paso, then came up with two final defensive stops to hold off a UTEP (1-3) comeback, 31-25.

The Miners threatened to spoil the Warhawks’ road trip with a third-quarter field goal and pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns to slash a 31-7 margin to just 31-25.

But Lynard Harris (Destrehan) and David Godsey Jr. intercepted UTEP quarterback Malachi Nelson on back-to-back possessions to help preserve the victory.

Braylon McReynolds rushed 18 times for 107 yards and a score, and Aidan Armenta finished 8-for-14 for 136 yards and touchdowns to Jake Godfrey and Jonathan Bibbs.

Hunter Herring (Ouachita Christian) rushed four times for 16 yards and a score and completed a 13-yard pass.

GRAMBLING’S CLUTCH COMEBACK VS. EAST TEXAS A&M

East Texas A&M (0-3) scored the game’s first two touchdowns and led by seven again early in the fourth when Grambling State (3-1) roared back.

Former Scotlandville quarterback C’Zavian Teasett led a pair of fourth-quarter drives for a combined 18 plays, 128 yards, a field goal and a game-winning Clyde McClendon Jr. goal-line touchdown with 1:56.

The 31-28 victory marked the Tigers’ second-straight fourth-quarter comeback after topping Kentucky State in overtime last week.

Teasett finished 14-for-26 for 179 yards and a touchdown and rushed eight times for 13 yards and another score.

Byron Eaton Jr. rushed six times for 69 yards and a touchdown, and Tyson George (Zachary) caught three passes for 59 yards.

Jamal Jordan (Evangel Christian) and Bryce Cage (Scotlandville) led the defense with eight and seven tackles, respectively.

And Warren Robinson, a transfer from East Texas A&M, wrapped up a late sack that helped stall his former team’s potential response and set up a missed field goal that could have forced overtime.

TULANE OPPORTUNITY TURNS LONG DAY AT OLE MISS

Tulane saw a prime opportunity evaporate into a long, frustrating afternoon in Oxford, Miss.

The Green Wave (3-1) struggled to find any semblance of a passing game or sustain more than a couple drives against No. 13 Ole Miss (4-0), while the Rebels meanwhile marched their way up and down their home field for scores on eight of their first nine possessions.

Tulane stumbled to its first loss of the season, 45-10 — the program’s most lopsided defeat since a a 61-21 loss on the same field in 2021.

Quarterbacks Jake Retzlaff and Brendan Sullivan finished a combined 10-for-29 for 104 yards and a late touchdown from Sullivan to Anthony Brown-Stephens.

Retzlaff and former Booker T. Washington (New Orleans) standout Arnold Barnes III led the rushing attack with 51 and 47 carries, respectively.

Tulane visits Tulsa (2-2, 0-1) next Saturday to open conference play.

CAJUNS SUFFER HEARTBREAK IN YPSILANTI

Louisiana (Lafayette) pieced together a quick, 65-yard drive in the final minutes to pull back even with 47 seconds left in a back-and-forth battle at Eastern Michigan.

But the home Eagles answered with a 41-yard drive to set up a 42-yard Rudy Kessinger field goal for a 34-31 win.

Former Franklin star Zylan Perry racked up 110 yards and two touchdowns on 15 carries, and Elijah “Bill” Davis (Riverside Academy) added another 78 yards and a score on 11 attempts.

Redshirt freshman quarterback Daniel Beale, the former Catholic-Baton Rouge star, completed 20 for his 33 passes for 222 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions.

And another former Catholic-BR star, LSU transfer Shelton Sampson Jr., led the team with three catches for 87 yards, including a late 43-yarder to set up Perry’s game-tying score.

Freshman defensive back Brent Gordon Jr., out of Cecilia, finished with a game-high 10 tackles, and senior corner Courtline Flowers had a 35-yard pick-six that provided the Ragin’ Cajuns a 24-21 lead in the third quarter.

SOUTHLAND GOES 0-FOR-4 ON ROAD

Southeastern Louisiana wasn’t alone in its road woes Saturday, as Southland rivals McNeese State, Nicholls State and Northwestern State each fell as well.

McNeese State (1-3) lost, 48-7, at Utah State (3-1). Nicholls State (1-3) fell, 35-3, to Texas State (3-1). And Northwestern State (1-3) couldn’t come back against Prairie View A&M (2-2) in a 27-24 loss.

Lions, Bulldogs, GSU wins help highlight Louisiana’s Week 3

by Jerit Roser
written by Jerit Roser

Louisiana colleges battled through another up-and-down Saturday in Week 3.

No. 3 LSU (3-0) and Tulane (3-0) won the weekend’s marquee matchups: the Tigers doubling up Florida (1-2) in their SEC opener and the Green Wave controlling quarterback Darian Mensah’s return with his new Duke team (1-2) from start to finish.

And Louisiana Tech (2-1), Southeastern Louisiana (2-1), Grambling State (2-1) handily took care of business in home games against New Mexico State (2-1), Mississippi Valley State (0-3) and Kentucky State to help the state’s Division-I programs finished 5-4.

Check out more on Louisiana vs. All Y’all’s college games of the week — LSU‘s and Tulane‘s defeats of the Gators and Blue Devils — and all the state’s victories.

LIONS UP EARLY AND CRUISING

Southeastern Louisiana’s defense and special teams provided one short field after another to start Saturday’s home opener against Mississippi Valley State.

And junior quarterback Carson Camp and the Lions offense cashed in each for touchdowns to build an early lead and cruise to the 56-3 defeat of the Delta Devils.

Camp finished 8-for-12 for 147 yards and two touchdowns, and fellow quarterback Kyle Lowe was a perfect 8-for-8 with 155 yards and three scores.

Veteran running back Jaedon Henry rushed five times for 21 yards and two first-quarter touchdowns.

And former Comeaux High star Jaylon Domingeaux caught four passes for 82 yards and three touchdowns, including an early 45-yarder that was an early sign of Southeastern’s explosive passing performance ahead.

Former Westlake star Tristan Goodly and senior Brandon Hayes added scoring catches of 65 and 39 yards, respectively.

Former Hahnville star Calvin Smith Jr. led the rushing attack with 14 carries for 69 yards.

Linebacker K.K. Reno (Catholic-N.I.) and Jirrea Johnson (Warren Easton) led the defense with six tackles each, plus a Reno fumble recovery, and senior defensive back Blayne Delahoussaye (Westgate) intercepted his first pass since 2023.

BLAKE BAKER, BULLDOGS FIND SPARK

Louisiana Tech continued utilizing two quarterbacks Saturday against New Mexico State, but shifted to Blake Baker getting the first crack.

And the Bulldogs enjoyed far-and-away their most explosive offensive performance thus far in a 49-14 rout of the Aggie.

The redshirt sophomore ran 15 times for 103 yards and a touchdown and completed eight of 16 passes for 182 yards and a 40-yard touchdown to freshman Jalen Mickens.

Junior Trey Kukuk completed 2-for-3 for 44 yards, a 42-yard touchdown to Marlion Jackson and an interception.

Omiri Wiggins and Clay Thevenin rushed 15 and 11 times, respectively, for 68 yards each and a Wiggins touchdown, and Andrew Burnette carried 11 times for 41 yards and a score.

David Pierro caught three passes for 64 yards with Mickens and Jackson chipping in 56 and 42, respectively.

Linebackers Kolbe Fields (Archbishop Rummel) and Jadon Mayfield (Ruston) were leading tackles with 10 and five, respectively, including 1.5 for loss and one sack for Mayfield.

And defensive backs Kam Franklin (Oak Grove) and Jakari Foster each intercepted passes, and redshirt freshman defensive lineman Jacob Bradford returned a fumble 20 yards for a touchdown.

BR NATIVES LIFT GRAMBLING STATE LATE 

Grambling State trailed Kentucky State (1-2) with less than two minutes to play at home Saturday before a pair of Baton Rouge natives helped lift the Tigers to an overtime victory.

Former Scotlandville quarterback C’Zavian Teasett marched the offense 75 yards in just 1:39 to help knot the game on the extra-point kick with 10 seconds remaining in regulation.

Then former Madison Prep star Tyrell Raby returned a fumble 83 yards for the 37-31 victory.

Teasett, a transfer from hometown Southern, completed 13 of 27 passes for 228 yards and two touchdowns and rushed nine times for 99 yards and another two scores — including 2-for-4 passing for 27 yards and four runs for four yards and the touchdown on the game-tying drive.

Redshirt freshman Keith Jones Jr., a former Edna Karr basketball standout, led the pass-catchers with two catches for 84 yards and a touchdown, and former Zachary star Tyson George caught four passes for 62 yards and a score.

CAJUNS, JAGS, COWBOYS, DEMONS FALL

Louisiana (Lafayette), Southern, McNeese State and Northwestern State all fell, while ULM and Nicholls State both rested on bye weeks.

The Ragin’ Cajuns (1-2), Southern (1-3) and Northwestern State (1-2) all suffered particularly tough days on the road: 52-0 at Missouri (3-0), 56-7 at Fresno State (3-1) and 70-0 at Cincinnati (2-1), respectively.

McNeese State lost a heartbreaker to Weber State (1-2) as a failed two-point conversion in the final minute shut the book on a 20-point fourth-quarter rally and a 42-41 loss.
