WEBVTT - Mac & Bone Show - Lee Sterling Interview  

0:00:00.110 --> 0:00:03.910
<v Speaker 1>Lee Sterling, six out of seven winning weeks right now.

0:00:04.550 --> 0:00:07.740
<v Speaker 1>He's got a college football 50-unit game of the year

0:00:08.490 --> 0:00:11.400
<v Speaker 1>on Saturday, so you know this is a good week

0:00:11.740 --> 0:00:15.140
<v Speaker 1>to check in with him and get his selections. Let's

0:00:15.200 --> 0:00:17.120
<v Speaker 1>talk to him right now about a bunch of games

0:00:17.160 --> 0:00:19.600
<v Speaker 1>here of local interest, and he's going to tell you

0:00:19.640 --> 0:00:21.520
<v Speaker 1>how to get his game of the week, which is

0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Packers and Cowboys, and he's also going to tell you

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:26.660
<v Speaker 1>how to get that big college pick this week. He

0:00:26.720 --> 0:00:31.780
<v Speaker 1>is Lee Sterling from Paramount Sports. ParamountSports.com. Lee, how are

0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:33.400
<v Speaker 1>you feeling on this Football Friday?

0:00:35.240 --> 0:00:39.310
<v Speaker 2>Great. I love the intro with Scooby-Doo. I mean, bring feedback.

0:00:39.770 --> 0:00:44.790
<v Speaker 2>My two daughters will be sitting in the kitchen watching Scooby-Doo.

0:00:44.810 --> 0:00:46.510
<v Speaker 2>What do you guys want for breakfast? And they're like,

0:00:46.590 --> 0:00:47.890
<v Speaker 2>Scooby Snacks, of course.

0:00:48.390 --> 0:00:51.380
<v Speaker 1>I love it. I love it, man. Scooby-Doo rocks. No

0:00:51.420 --> 0:00:54.980
<v Speaker 1>doubt about it. All right, Lee, let's get into these

0:00:55.050 --> 0:00:57.010
<v Speaker 1>picks because if you're going to be able to afford

0:00:57.050 --> 0:01:00.010
<v Speaker 1>Scooby Snacks for your kids out there listening, you might

0:01:00.050 --> 0:01:02.270
<v Speaker 1>need to hit some picks this weekend. All right, let's

0:01:02.290 --> 0:01:04.330
<v Speaker 1>get to Duke, North Carolina. This is a game that's

0:01:04.350 --> 0:01:07.750
<v Speaker 1>very interesting because Duke slipped up last week. UNC got

0:01:07.770 --> 0:01:10.430
<v Speaker 1>a really big win, so I think there feels like

0:01:10.450 --> 0:01:13.350
<v Speaker 1>there's some intrigue in this matchup. Duke, though, is a

0:01:13.450 --> 0:01:16.270
<v Speaker 1>three-and-a-half point favorite. What do you say about this one?

0:01:17.910 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and they did slip up, but They got hoodwinked

0:01:23.780 --> 0:01:27.360
<v Speaker 2>by the winds, and they tried to do a little

0:01:27.380 --> 0:01:32.860
<v Speaker 2>bit too much. UNC quarterback Billy Edwards isn't real good,

0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:35.110
<v Speaker 2>and he's going to throw interceptions. He's got to give

0:01:35.130 --> 0:01:39.390
<v Speaker 2>them different looks, put them in some third-long situations. That's

0:01:39.450 --> 0:01:43.550
<v Speaker 2>why he moved around a couple different schools. Duke just

0:01:43.569 --> 0:01:45.589
<v Speaker 2>hand off the ball here. Just run it right at

0:01:45.650 --> 0:01:49.050
<v Speaker 2>North Carolina. Short passing game, I think that'll be enough.

0:01:49.110 --> 0:01:51.550
<v Speaker 2>I like Duke here. I think they want to cover

0:01:51.570 --> 0:01:52.530
<v Speaker 2>this game 24-17.

0:01:52.570 --> 0:01:58.350
<v Speaker 3>Lee, what about Miami-Florida State here, this big rivalry game?

0:01:58.370 --> 0:01:58.990
<v Speaker 3>What's the play here?

0:02:00.930 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, weather could be a factor. We're kind of waiting

0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:07.660
<v Speaker 2>on to see what's going on. Could be some rain

0:02:07.700 --> 0:02:10.940
<v Speaker 2>and some winds there. Maybe not as bad as the

0:02:11.160 --> 0:02:15.820
<v Speaker 2>Nebraska-Indiana game last week. But it looks like Miami is

0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:19.100
<v Speaker 2>starting to get healthy now. And Florida State, you know,

0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:22.989
<v Speaker 2>second half of games, they just quit. Their defensive line

0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:25.910
<v Speaker 2>and linebackers just don't want to mix it up here

0:02:25.970 --> 0:02:29.850
<v Speaker 2>in Miami. They're ready for a 15-round bout. Mark Flesher

0:02:31.250 --> 0:02:34.110
<v Speaker 2>looks on top of his game again. And they have

0:02:34.130 --> 0:02:38.190
<v Speaker 2>a true freshman running back. Watch his kid, Jerrion Mallory.

0:02:38.750 --> 0:02:40.660
<v Speaker 2>I think they're going to pound away and wear down

0:02:40.690 --> 0:02:44.820
<v Speaker 2>this Florida State front seven here that's 102nd against Florida.

0:02:45.630 --> 0:02:49.100
<v Speaker 2>the run here, and Mario's not going to hold back.

0:02:49.120 --> 0:02:52.860
<v Speaker 2>Over 120 recruits will be in the stands, so I

0:02:52.900 --> 0:02:55.640
<v Speaker 2>like Miami. I think they pull away 42-14.

0:02:56.060 --> 0:02:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this could be one where Norvell's seat gets even

0:02:59.919 --> 0:03:03.560
<v Speaker 1>hotter after this one, no doubt about it. We're talking

0:03:03.580 --> 0:03:07.540
<v Speaker 1>with Lee Sterling, Paramount Sports, ParamountSports.com. He's going to tell

0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:10.440
<v Speaker 1>you how to get his picks this weekend. Coming up

0:03:10.460 --> 0:03:12.460
<v Speaker 1>here in a couple minutes, he's also, as always, going

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:15.100
<v Speaker 1>to pick the Panther game for us before he goes.

0:03:15.550 --> 0:03:19.450
<v Speaker 1>But let's talk about this late-night game in California for

0:03:19.510 --> 0:03:23.070
<v Speaker 1>the red-hot Demon Deacs of Wake Forest. Wake Forest right

0:03:23.090 --> 0:03:26.769
<v Speaker 1>around a nine-and-a-half-point favorite. Cal just pulled the upset last

0:03:26.830 --> 0:03:30.680
<v Speaker 1>week over Virginia Tech. Is this one where you feel

0:03:30.740 --> 0:03:33.580
<v Speaker 1>like West Coast could be dangerous for Wake.

0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:33.920
<v Speaker 2>Or not really?

0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:34.459
<v Speaker 1>What do you think?

0:03:36.380 --> 0:03:41.260
<v Speaker 2>I think so. A 10-30 Eastern start for the Deacons here. Cal,

0:03:41.360 --> 0:03:46.300
<v Speaker 2>I mean... totally injured last week and, uh, they clowned

0:03:46.340 --> 0:03:49.580
<v Speaker 2>James Franklin and who hasn't, uh, for the last couple

0:03:49.660 --> 0:03:52.020
<v Speaker 2>of years, but all of a sudden they're getting healthy.

0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:55.140
<v Speaker 2>They could get four or five starters back for this game.

0:03:55.460 --> 0:03:58.420
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't make any difference who their starting quarterback is. Uh,

0:03:58.940 --> 0:04:01.220
<v Speaker 2>both guys seem to be able to do the job

0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:04.550
<v Speaker 2>here and they have the short passing game. They run that,

0:04:04.910 --> 0:04:09.820
<v Speaker 2>that stretch off tackle running zone play as good as anyone. So, uh,

0:04:10.330 --> 0:04:13.790
<v Speaker 2>We get their star running back. That could spell trouble here.

0:04:13.850 --> 0:04:17.840
<v Speaker 2>I think Wake Forest is going to survive here 31-27,

0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:21.300
<v Speaker 2>but nine and a half points, way too much.

0:04:21.940 --> 0:04:24.420
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I kind of feel you on that one. I do.

0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:28.190
<v Speaker 3>We on the NFL side, Saints, Giants, Saints one and

0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:31.070
<v Speaker 3>a half point favorites in this game. What's the play here?

0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:37.480
<v Speaker 2>Jameis Winston was cold as ice last week. And then

0:04:38.250 --> 0:04:41.830
<v Speaker 2>the commanders allow him to throw for almost 300 yards

0:04:41.890 --> 0:04:45.110
<v Speaker 2>in the second half. So, you know, he's a gunslinger.

0:04:45.130 --> 0:04:49.190
<v Speaker 2>If he's hot, you let him, you know, operate. He's

0:04:49.210 --> 0:04:52.080
<v Speaker 2>going to do a number on you here. But I

0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:54.620
<v Speaker 2>think that New Orleans is going to come back here.

0:04:54.660 --> 0:04:57.810
<v Speaker 2>Carlos showed one of his worst performances here. that we've

0:04:57.850 --> 0:05:00.529
<v Speaker 2>seen in a while the last couple weeks. So it

0:05:00.570 --> 0:05:02.870
<v Speaker 2>looks like he's going to be able to go here.

0:05:03.070 --> 0:05:05.950
<v Speaker 2>And I just think that the secondary will mix it

0:05:06.029 --> 0:05:08.810
<v Speaker 2>up here with their coverages. And I just don't think

0:05:08.850 --> 0:05:11.250
<v Speaker 2>that the Giants defense is going to be able to

0:05:11.270 --> 0:05:14.710
<v Speaker 2>get enough pass rush on Shug here. So I think

0:05:15.070 --> 0:05:19.020
<v Speaker 2>New Orleans here is going to make this NFC season crazier.

0:05:19.040 --> 0:05:20.270
<v Speaker 2>I like New Orleans here, 21-14.

0:05:22.980 --> 0:05:25.820
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's get to Panthers this week, and then

0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:27.860
<v Speaker 1>we'll get to your game of the week. And you'll

0:05:27.900 --> 0:05:29.599
<v Speaker 1>tell everybody, I know you've got a huge college pick

0:05:29.620 --> 0:05:34.260
<v Speaker 1>the fans should be interested in, but Panthers-Eagles. Now, this spread,

0:05:35.160 --> 0:05:37.550
<v Speaker 1>earlier in the week, this spread, Eagles were the favorite.

0:05:37.650 --> 0:05:41.429
<v Speaker 1>It's obviously changed now, Lee, in terms of the Panthers.

0:05:41.570 --> 0:05:44.430
<v Speaker 1>I think, is it Panthers 3, 3 1⁄2 now? How

0:05:44.490 --> 0:05:47.730
<v Speaker 1>far has it moved? And what do you think about

0:05:47.750 --> 0:05:48.310
<v Speaker 1>this one now?

0:05:50.050 --> 0:05:52.270
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's up to three and a half now. So

0:05:53.180 --> 0:05:56.820
<v Speaker 2>Eagles have lost three in a row. And, you know,

0:05:56.839 --> 0:05:59.880
<v Speaker 2>just made a mistake. They played really, really well, deserved

0:05:59.900 --> 0:06:01.980
<v Speaker 2>to win that game. But you don't kick it off

0:06:02.020 --> 0:06:04.760
<v Speaker 2>to the returner, you know, with eight seconds to go.

0:06:04.860 --> 0:06:09.160
<v Speaker 2>So they'll be– I mean, there was some just crazy

0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:13.300
<v Speaker 2>stuff happening. The Washington Giants game, what were they thinking?

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:16.820
<v Speaker 2>Did they think there was a double overtime? But now

0:06:16.900 --> 0:06:19.240
<v Speaker 2>all of a sudden it looks like almost everyone's gone. Hurts,

0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:21.720
<v Speaker 2>it looks like, will not play in this game. That's

0:06:21.779 --> 0:06:28.219
<v Speaker 2>almost for sure. Offensive line, they've had guys retire, injured, traded,

0:06:29.100 --> 0:06:32.460
<v Speaker 2>no protection there. The defense stepped up, but I don't

0:06:32.490 --> 0:06:34.750
<v Speaker 2>think it's going to be enough here with Coker coming back.

0:06:34.830 --> 0:06:38.250
<v Speaker 2>So some people say, you know, bye, not your friend

0:06:38.290 --> 0:06:41.030
<v Speaker 2>when you're red hot. But I think this team, this

0:06:41.110 --> 0:06:44.030
<v Speaker 2>Panthers team with all their weapons on offense, It's going

0:06:44.050 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 2>to be a dangerous team here. So, I think Philadelphia

0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 2>is going to go on a long, long losing streak.

0:06:50.779 --> 0:06:53.600
<v Speaker 2>It's three. It could end up seven, eight, nine. I

0:06:53.620 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 2>like Carolina big here. I think they wouldn't cover 30

0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:58.680
<v Speaker 2>to 20. There you go, Lee.

0:06:58.700 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 1>There you go, Lee.

0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:00.620
<v Speaker 2>There you go, Lee.

0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:01.000
<v Speaker 1>Lee.

0:07:01.140 --> 0:07:01.360
<v Speaker 2>Lee.

0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Lee.

0:07:02.180 --> 0:07:02.469
<v Speaker 2>Lee. Lee.

0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:07.250
<v Speaker 3>Lee. Lee. You nailed your player prop last week. You

0:07:07.270 --> 0:07:11.350
<v Speaker 3>had Jordan Love over passing yards against the Bears. Do

0:07:11.370 --> 0:07:12.350
<v Speaker 3>you have one this week for us?

0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:19.490
<v Speaker 2>I do. Justin Herbert, under 194 and a half passing yards.

0:07:19.550 --> 0:07:23.670
<v Speaker 2>And you're saying, wow, 200 yards. NFL quarterbacks should get that.

0:07:23.710 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 2>But when they finished the game last week, four rookies

0:07:28.200 --> 0:07:32.290
<v Speaker 2>were on the Chargers offensive line. You just can't. You

0:07:32.310 --> 0:07:34.790
<v Speaker 2>can't participate and play at a high level. Like at

0:07:34.830 --> 0:07:38.310
<v Speaker 2>Justin Herbert, you saw his eyes. I mean, he just

0:07:38.330 --> 0:07:43.030
<v Speaker 2>did not want to go the distance it looks like anymore.

0:07:43.090 --> 0:07:47.540
<v Speaker 2>He's quit. He does have two passing games above 200,

0:07:47.540 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 2>but two are against Arizona and Buffalo, two bottom five

0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 2>pass defenses here. Kansas City coming off the bye. We're

0:07:55.540 --> 0:07:57.500
<v Speaker 2>probably going to see an effort like they had against

0:07:57.580 --> 0:08:02.870
<v Speaker 2>Denver in week one. They held... Denver's next just 115

0:08:02.870 --> 0:08:06.910
<v Speaker 2>passing yards. So I think Justin Herbert is in trouble.

0:08:06.970 --> 0:08:09.270
<v Speaker 2>If they lose this game, don't be surprised. They make

0:08:09.330 --> 0:08:12.990
<v Speaker 2>the trade, and they just try to rebuild. I think

0:08:13.050 --> 0:08:15.850
<v Speaker 2>it's probably the way to go. So it's not worked

0:08:15.970 --> 0:08:18.670
<v Speaker 2>out there. He needs a new home. And I think

0:08:18.710 --> 0:08:21.560
<v Speaker 2>when you look at Justin Herbert also as a player prop,

0:08:21.830 --> 0:08:25.120
<v Speaker 2>let's say that he gets hurt. He's definitely not 100%.

0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:27.580
<v Speaker 2>As long as he starts the game on a player prop,

0:08:28.030 --> 0:08:31.170
<v Speaker 2>The player prop is active, and he may not finish.

0:08:31.190 --> 0:08:33.730
<v Speaker 2>They might pull him. He might go out injured. So

0:08:33.809 --> 0:08:38.950
<v Speaker 2>Justin Herbert, under 194.5 passing yards. Don't fall for the trap.

0:08:39.490 --> 0:08:41.950
<v Speaker 1>Definitely makes sense. All right, Lee, before we let you go,

0:08:41.970 --> 0:08:44.470
<v Speaker 1>got to let you tell everybody, how did they get

0:08:44.510 --> 0:08:47.480
<v Speaker 1>your Green Bay-Dallas game of the week, and how did

0:08:47.500 --> 0:08:49.300
<v Speaker 1>they get your big college play and all your plays

0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:49.600
<v Speaker 1>this week?

0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.230
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Packers and Cavaliers, how big is this game here?

0:08:54.250 --> 0:08:58.150
<v Speaker 2>Probably a must-win for both teams here. Packers can't keep

0:08:58.190 --> 0:09:01.410
<v Speaker 2>falling farther back from the Vikings. Vikings might be one

0:09:01.450 --> 0:09:04.080
<v Speaker 2>of those teams that reaches out and tries to land

0:09:04.120 --> 0:09:08.470
<v Speaker 2>Justin Herbert. So that's a big game. Cowboys, you know,

0:09:08.510 --> 0:09:11.429
<v Speaker 2>the NFC East is a mess, so they need to

0:09:11.500 --> 0:09:14.140
<v Speaker 2>keep winning. If you want to get this game, just

0:09:14.179 --> 0:09:18.260
