Andrew Whitworth narrates first hype game of the season
“The path,” Whitworth starts. “At some point, every champion reaches a crossroads. A day when they must choose which path to follow. The path that starts here leads to glory. It has been paved by legends. Those who were born in this place and those who were born into it. It requires attitude and grit … demands intelligence and laser focus … insists upon attention to detail. It compels excellence.

“The path is proven,” Whitworth continues. “It has transformed stars into icons, and icons into legends. But it’s more than just a pipeline, it’s a destination unto itself. It’s more than just football, it’s a cathedral for the faithful. It’s a place where prayers are answered and dreams come true. The path is not for everyone. It is for the few and the worthy. And it is for those who are destined for glory. It is for those who understand that what begins here, lasts forever. Follow the path and the rest takes care of itself.”

Andrew Whitworth is somewhat of an expert on the LSU “path.” He won the 2003 national championship with the Tigers while earning second-team All-SEC nominations in 2004 and 2005. Winning the 2021 Super Bowl title with the L.A. Rams, he became the oldest offensive lineman to do so at age 40.
