1
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: This is straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. What is up

2
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:17,079
Speaker 1: straight Fire, Fam, It's me Jason McIntyre. Straight Fire for Friday,

3
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:23,720
Speaker 1: September three. College football is here. Week one is underway.

4
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 1: Had a good game last night, Ohio State struggling for

5
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: a bit, uh, you know about two and a half quarters,

6
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: maybe two or the third quarters against Minnesota before pulling away.

7
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,480
Speaker 1: We'll get to a little college football recap in a minute.

8
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 1: I do want to tease our guest today. He's great.

9
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,919
Speaker 1: I had never interviewed him before. I talked to him

10
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,879
Speaker 1: before Brad Powers of Brad Power Sports. He's a big

11
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: college football gambler. Used to work with r J. Bell

12
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: Att pregame dot Com. He used to work with um

13
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 1: Phil Steele. Like he's been around the block. And so

14
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 1: we'll get to that. You guys are like the interview,

15
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: uh real quick. Just wanted to briefly know a little

16
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 1: disappointed in team USA Soccer. I went down to El

17
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 1: Salvador tied El Salvador zero zero. Kind of a listless performance.

18
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: I know it's tough to win on the road in

19
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: conquer calf uh World Cup qualifying, but like after the

20
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: disaster that was qualifying for the last World Cup and

21
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: missing the last World Cup. Um, I'm like, there's no

22
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,399
Speaker 1: room for air here. We can't be screwing around like

23
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: I know, they really struggled on the road leading up

24
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 1: to the last World Cup and qualifying. Um. Listen, you

25
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: got a point at least against Al Salvador. But El

26
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: Salvador is not very good. I know. It's a hostile environment.

27
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,759
Speaker 1: There's guards with like this, like riot police guards at

28
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: every quarter kick set up if you watch it a

29
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: little hostile. So they got to tie. Listen, no room

30
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: for error. Sunday, you gotta beat Canada at home. Okay,

31
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: you gotta beat That's gotta be three. Now Pools is

32
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: expected back. And now I've done too long on soccer.

33
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: Let's um. But actually, you know what I want to

34
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: quickly just talk one quick word about Ohio State. Um,

35
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: Defensively they did not look. Um, Minnesota really moved the

36
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: football at will. I thought Minnesota ran all over them

37
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: until they're running back. Suffered what looked like an achilles injury.

38
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: The kid Abraham really nice player. Man, that was a bummer.

39
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: You could like slow moor the video. Um, it looked

40
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: like a pop achilles, which is a bummer. He's a

41
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: senior guy. Had monster year last year. Fifteen touchdowns in

42
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: East gashed Ohio State bucks sixty uh two TVs. Like

43
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: he kept them in the game. Uh. And then when

44
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: he went out, they like didn't have much offense. But

45
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,359
Speaker 1: c c J. Stroud, the Ohio State quarterback, he looked

46
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: all right. I know if you just look at the stats,

47
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: Oh C J. Stroud was amazing. Four touchdowns two years

48
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: Like slow down. Okay, three of those touchdowns super duper

49
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: wide open receivers Olave and Wilson are probably first rounders.

50
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: And then he essentially threw a scream to Henderson, the

51
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,279
Speaker 1: freshman who took it seventy yards at the house. So

52
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say Stroud is nothing, um, but I

53
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: will say, like, first start on the road, not an

54
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: easy one. Um. Next week against Oregon a little tougher.

55
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: That's gonna be a tougher situation. Oregon defense is much

56
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: better than Minnesota. But it was good. It's listen, it's

57
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: good to have college football back. All right. Let's get

58
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: to Brad Powers of Brad power sports dot com. Jason

59
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 1: likes to think he knows everything when it comes to sports.

60
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 1: I know what sports stands want, but for everything he doesn't,

61
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: he knows a guy who does. Let's just say I

62
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: know a guy who knows a guy who knows another guy.

63
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: All right, let's bring on to straight fire, a college

64
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 1: football guru. I've known his work forever because he's worked

65
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: with R. J. Bell uh and now he has basically

66
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: his own shop, Brad Powers sports dot Com Brad Powers.

67
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: Brad how are you man? Excellent thing? I mean, you listen,

68
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 1: Week zero college football not that exciting. I'm sure you were,

69
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: you know, heavily watching uh U c l A Hawaii, Right,

70
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: but this one Week one as like as good of

71
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: a slight as I've seen a long time time. Oh,

72
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: there's no question. I mean, I know, everyone in today's

73
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: day and age recency bias, and everyone wants to hype

74
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: everything up. This is legitimately the best Week one slate

75
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: we've ever seen in college football. I mean, sorry to

76
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,039
Speaker 1: keep going ahead. Oh, I mean it starts with Georgia Clemson.

77
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: That's as good as a Week one game as we've

78
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,840
Speaker 1: ever seen two top five teams. But it's just not that.

79
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 1: I mean you looked at the ranked on ranked match

80
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: that's Penn State Wisconsin l s u U c l

81
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: A just go right down. I mean, it's as deep

82
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: as we've ever seen in a season opening week, you know,

83
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,440
Speaker 1: and and it's it feels like it's needed because I

84
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 1: don't know about you, Brad, last year, but I wasn't

85
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: as heavy on gambling on college football. It's just it

86
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: was like a weird season. Games canceled and you know,

87
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: get teams playing like four or five six games. I

88
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: just wasn't that into it. But I'm like super locked

89
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,359
Speaker 1: in for week one year. It feels like it's needed

90
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: to bounce back for college football. It's definitely needed. I mean,

91
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: what's mixed college football unique and great as the atmospheres,

92
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 1: I mean, you get you know, the the fan support

93
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,599
Speaker 1: is almost similar to Europeans soccer, and it's just it's

94
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: it's different than any other sport that we have in America.

95
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 1: But you know, I'll say as a fan, it was

96
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: different as a better last year, I mean I loved

97
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: it because I mean if you can get on top

98
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 1: of information before the market and half the half the

99
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,440
Speaker 1: teams out because of COVID, I mean it was a

100
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: very profitable year. I'll just put it that way. So

101
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: information is is a key word there, So I mean

102
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 1: you've been doing this for a long time. Obviously you've

103
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: got connections at a lot of places. But with the

104
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: advent of Twitter becoming so omnipressant, I mean, do you

105
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: find yourself just locked onto a computer like twelve hours

106
00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: a day during the week waiting for news or are

107
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: you more plugged into the point where you're texting people hey,

108
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: what are you hearing and trying to get in on

109
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: moves before the lines move. It's all the above, So,

110
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: I mean, I trust my own numbers first, when when

111
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,839
Speaker 1: I'm betting opening numbers, it's just about my numbers compared

112
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: to the bookmakers. And then throughout the course the week,

113
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: it's getting that information. So it's all the above. Mean

114
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 1: it's locked into people that that have inside in foll.

115
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,480
Speaker 1: That wasn't the case ten years ago when I started,

116
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:07,560
Speaker 1: but now, I mean I'm more of a known commodity.

117
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 1: People reach out to me and then you know, it's

118
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 1: reading Twitter, believe it or not. I know twitters, you know,

119
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: can be mainly negative. I think it's a great positive

120
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: as far as if you're following the beat writers for

121
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 1: the teams, uh and you're getting that information. I mean,

122
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: you can beat the market on a lot of this stuff.

123
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: But I mean the downfall is it's not great for

124
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 1: your health to look at a computer screen six four

125
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 1: months straight. But you know it is it's all about

126
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: making money, health, relationships, kids, all that fun stuff. Let's

127
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 1: start with one of the lines that I feel like, Listen,

128
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: you watch them closer than I have. But since it opened,

129
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: Notre Dame f s U feels like it's moved more

130
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: than any other game on the board. Is that accurate, Well,

131
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: it depends on what the opener was. I mean there's

132
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: some ones that what I call soft openers that they

133
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: moved like more than a touchdown. But if you're talking

134
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: and most people were able to bet, yeah, I mean

135
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 1: certainly it's moved three or four points. And obviously the

136
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: money's come in on Florida State. I mean it's down

137
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:10,920
Speaker 1: to seven now, which is obviously a very key number

138
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: in football. All the money's coming on Florida State, I

139
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: gotta tell you. I mean I did bet Florida State

140
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: when that line got to its highest point at ten

141
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: and a half. But I'm all about numbers, and if

142
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: it drops off a seven, I'm firing and firing a

143
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 1: lot on Notre Dame. I think there's too much negativity

144
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 1: about Notre Dame right now just because they're an inexperienced team.

145
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: There's still way more talent in Florida State. In Florida State,

146
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: I just think has way more question marks on the

147
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: Irish too. And obviously the coach Brian Kelly. I don't

148
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,080
Speaker 1: know where you are on him. I still think he's

149
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 1: a pretty good coach. Uh. If you could get a

150
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 1: middle on that, wow, I mean six and a half

151
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: Notre Dame in ten and a half Florida State, that

152
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 1: could be a very very good start to your season.

153
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: Any any chance you think it touches six and a half? Uh, Well,

154
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: I already got a middle because I bet six and

155
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: at a place in May on Notre Dame. I thought

156
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: they were way too light, and then I took it

157
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: back like a month later. I thought a book was

158
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 1: way too high on the game at ten and a half.

159
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: So I'm already looking in the middle. But I'm looking

160
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: to really want to take a position on Notre Dame,

161
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: and I think it might happen. And here's why. Uh,

162
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 1: you know, when it comes, it's a Sunday game. Isolated.

163
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: I think when people see that seven, seven and a

164
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: half or whatever, the public is gonna want to bet

165
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: Florida State. They're gonna read all noted Dame only returns

166
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: nine starters. I think the public is gonna be on

167
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 1: the underdog. A rare time where they're gonna be on

168
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: the dogs. So I think we might see a six

169
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: and a half. It's interesting you say only nine starters.

170
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: I look at Alabama and Brad uh. You know, they're

171
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: in a big game this weekend against Miami. They lost

172
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,319
Speaker 1: basically what five guys to the first round of the draft.

173
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 1: They lost five coaches. I think, I mean, you know,

174
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: Notre Dame only returns nine What about Alabama? Dude, do

175
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: we hold them to the same standard or does it

176
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: not matter because all they get is five stars superstars?

177
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,359
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. I mean when you signed the arguably

178
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 1: the greatest recruiting class we've ever seen, I mean seven

179
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: five stars are bringing in. I mean most teams don't

180
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: sign seven five stars in a ten year appearance. Notre

181
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: Dames want of those teams. So Alabama is different as

182
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: long as Nick sabans there and they're bringing in recruiting

183
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 1: classes and then and keep in mind you also have

184
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: to look at it historically noted. I mean, Alabama is

185
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,959
Speaker 1: a is a program that usually only returns eleven twelve

186
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 1: starters on average each and every year. Ever since you

187
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: know that they've been losing guys in the NFL draft

188
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 1: year after year. It's just more of the same with Obama.

189
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: I mean I still have number one. Yeah, I mean

190
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,679
Speaker 1: it makes sense, and the numbers seems to keep moving up.

191
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: I did take a small position on the under. Um,

192
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: I don't know, do you have anything on that on

193
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: Alabama Miami under is one of my favorite totals of

194
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 1: the week. I I have a lot of position on

195
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,839
Speaker 1: the under. So and here's my thought process is when

196
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: you break down each group, so you're looking offense defense

197
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: for both teams, all four to me scream under offense

198
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: for Alabama. If they are gonna start slow, it's gonna

199
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 1: be on the offense side of the ball. New quarterback,

200
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 1: new running back, lose their you know, their top two

201
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: wide receivers, and more importantly, four new assistant coaches. And look,

202
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: regardless of your thoughts on Bill O'Brien and whatnot, I

203
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: do think, at least early on, he is a step

204
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,839
Speaker 1: down from Steve sarkis part the play caller. So down

205
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 1: on Alabama's offense, up on Alabama's defense. I think they

206
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,839
Speaker 1: got their best defense in the last three or four years.

207
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,319
Speaker 1: In fact, eight returning starters on that Alabama defense, that's

208
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: the most they've had on that side of the ball

209
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 1: in ten years coming into a season. So they'll be

210
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 1: one of the best, if not the best defense. And

211
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: they but wait, let let me ask real quick. This

212
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,839
Speaker 1: is a defense that got shredded last year at times. Uh,

213
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 1: the kid had old miss just moved the football on

214
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,240
Speaker 1: him with ease. Um. I don't know how I feel

215
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,840
Speaker 1: about Miami being to being able to move the football

216
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 1: that easily. But like, they return a lot of guys,

217
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: But would you say they were great last year or

218
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: just like average blow average for out standards. But keep

219
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,319
Speaker 1: in mind they're also running a different style. I mean,

220
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: it's not they're not running as much. I mean, they're

221
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: perfectly fine. You know, having a team scored per game

222
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,760
Speaker 1: on him. Why because their offense instead of ten years ago,

223
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 1: was scoring ten more points per game on average. So

224
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:06,040
Speaker 1: you know, it probably doesn't set Nick Saban's not always happy, probably,

225
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: but it's just the game has changed where I mean,

226
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: Alabama offensively is just scoring more, so they can allow

227
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: a little bit more on defense. So I just want

228
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:14,600
Speaker 1: to clarify for people. A lot of people are gonna

229
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 1: hear this this morning. Uh they're gonna say, oh, I

230
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 1: got a pound Alabama Miami under sixty one Brett. You

231
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,319
Speaker 1: know this number has been out there for a while

232
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,680
Speaker 1: because these Week one games have been out. I got

233
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: sixty two and a half I think two weeks ago,

234
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: and then it's a sixty two now sixty one. So

235
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 1: do you do your numbers still say hey, there's an

236
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: edge on Alabama sixty one under, it's a lean. I

237
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: mean I got sixty five and a half. Oh jee.

238
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: You know people, that's the problem with Week one. I

239
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 1: mean everyone gets excited for the season. I want to bet,

240
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: I want to bet, I want to bet. But the

241
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,840
Speaker 1: reality is these numbers have been out for two months.

242
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: Guys like myself have been betting into this consistently for

243
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: for for two months straight, and and people are asking me, oh,

244
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,079
Speaker 1: what's your best bet this and that? Well I got

245
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 1: a lot of best bets in pocket, but that better

246
00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,079
Speaker 1: two months ago. So I mean, here's what you should

247
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: be betting now late breaking injury news, weather news, and

248
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: then if you've got a position on a team, and

249
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 1: the beauty of today's day and age is you can

250
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: lie bet and if you're just dead wrong about a team,

251
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: to get off your pre flop position and in game

252
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,959
Speaker 1: live bet. I mean, that's what I'm gonna be doing.

253
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,320
Speaker 1: It's just that that's the only added bets that I get. Weather, injury,

254
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 1: and in game. That's it. There's really nothing on the

255
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 1: board I bet right now. Big Fox Sports Radio has

260
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,559
Speaker 1: I'm out here in southern California. I know a lot

261
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: of you U C l A grads. I've asked at

262
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 1: least fifteen of them, Hey, you go to the game

263
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: this weekend. They're like, who are we playing? And I'm

264
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,079
Speaker 1: just saying, Brad, like, it's a four day weekend out

265
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: here in l A. Because the kids are out of school,

266
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: so a lot of people going out of town. I

267
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: know that l S you had to deal with obviously,

268
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: Hurricane Ida, but senses this is gonna be a pro

269
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,959
Speaker 1: L s U crowd. You know, I I would if

270
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: it wasn't for the hurricane. I mean I would lay

271
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: minus five hundred that L s U would have a

272
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 1: crowd advantage. I mean, look how pathetic and feeble the

273
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: crowd was last week for U c l A, and

274
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,560
Speaker 1: people gave me all these excuses their stuff to do

275
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: in l A, this and that, all their excuses. Basically

276
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: told me why it shouldn't have been a sellout, why

277
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 1: there shouldn't have been sixty or seventy thousand in that stadium.

278
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 1: Did you look at the aerial footage? There wasn't even

279
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: ten people in that stadium. I mean, it's pathetic. So

280
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: this is an interesting game. A lot of people ask

281
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 1: me about this one. I mean it's a high variance game.

282
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 1: To me, I can tell you the professional side is

283
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 1: definitely U c l A. They bet U c l

284
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 1: A plus four and a half plus four plus three

285
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: and a half earlier this week. But this is one

286
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: where I could see where Joe Public might be right.

287
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,600
Speaker 1: I mean, L s U is still way more talented.

288
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 1: They'll have the crowd edge, and number actually looks a

289
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: little cheap to me L s U minus three, I

290
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: might talk myself into it. Honestly, if it's three, it's

291
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 1: definitely an LSU played you right, Yeah it is. I'm

292
00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: just wondering, So, Brad, these numbers have been out for

293
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: you said two months, uh in the desert, and I

294
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: guess that's some of the off shore books. But I

295
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: do wonder, once you know this week is done, do

296
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 1: you historically lay most of your bets Sunday and then

297
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: Monday before all the money starts to flow in or

298
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: talk me through your strategy for like going forward this season?

299
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 1: Oh I do. I mean most of my bets are

300
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: are are Sunday morning. So there's a place called Circa

301
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: in Vegas, yea, and they have reasonable limits. I mean,

302
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,640
Speaker 1: you can get two dimes down at eleven a m.

303
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: Morning Pacific time on a Sunday morning. I know people

304
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: at that time all it's you know, I'm watching the

305
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 1: NFL games, but I'm bet in college football and I'll

306
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: make bets at eleven and you gotta do it within

307
00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 1: five minutes or those numbers get bet up. But that's

308
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 1: kind of been a new thing that's been around the

309
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 1: last couple of years and I'll tell you it probably

310
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: repres the seventy of my overall betting for the entire

311
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,360
Speaker 1: week is made between eleven am Pacific time and eleven

312
00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: on five on a Sunday morning. Okay, So the counter

313
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: to that is, well, wait, Brad, there's is the COVID stuff.

314
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: This year. There was the COVID stuff last year. Do

315
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: you really feel confident putting down a thousand dollars on

316
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: a game on a Sunday morning when so much ship

317
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 1: could go haywire with the COVID I do. I mean

318
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:25,800
Speaker 1: it was the case last year, and I had my

319
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: best betting year ever. So it's those numbers. I mean

320
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 1: that I keep track because I mean, look, there was

321
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: a concern and I'm not saying that every bet I

322
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: made was great, but the majority of them were. And

323
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 1: you know, I always look at, you know, teams that

324
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: are kind of struggling with COVID the week prior, and

325
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 1: I kind of faded that I'm not sure that it's

326
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 1: going to necessarily be better this week for them. So

327
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,160
Speaker 1: I mean it was different, but I gotta look at

328
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 1: my results. It wasn't like, oh I had a great year.

329
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: I bet twenty games and went twelve and eight. No,

330
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 1: I bet like two honor games and it hit sixty percent.

331
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 1: So I'm all in on betting early. It's it's me

332
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 1: versus the bookmaker. And it's not like me betting later

333
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: in the week when it's me versus the entire world,

334
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: the entire market, and I'm laying the money. I'd rather

335
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: me versus them. I'm gonna beat you. And just that's

336
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: my thought process, all right. So if you don't mind,

337
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 1: and I don't, you know, let's look quickly at week two.

338
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: So right, So week one is gonna be done Sunday morning. Uh,

339
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: if you're in Vegas or if you're shopping online, some

340
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: lines will be up. Oregon Ohio State was there, and

341
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,200
Speaker 1: that's obviously one of the marquee games of this month,

342
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: maybe the season. Um there, I had heard somebody try

343
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: to talk me into, Hey, you know what, Ohio State

344
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 1: is gonna kind of soft pedal it against Minnesota. That's

345
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: why everybody's betting Minnesota. Ohio State's focused on Oregon next week.

346
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: Are you buying that? And what numbers do you see

347
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 1: or what was the preseason number on this game? I

348
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: was anywhere between ten and thirteen on the black guys,

349
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: I thought a fair number. It's it's one that I

350
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,040
Speaker 1: didn't bet. Uh. As far as Ohio State favorite over Oregon,

351
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: they just here to be double DIGITR favorites, I can

352
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: tell you that. And I would lean that Buck guy

353
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: way up until minus fourteen. I'm hearing similar thoughts on

354
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,760
Speaker 1: the Ohio State Minnesota game, but but I just think

355
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,360
Speaker 1: the talent gap is so wide between the two. I

356
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,800
Speaker 1: if Ohio State is gonna slow play it, I prefer

357
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,439
Speaker 1: the under and the under in that game tonight on

358
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: Thursday was my preference. Uh, in that instead of betting

359
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: Ohio State or Minnesota. I mean, we'll see the Ducks

360
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: have been banged up. I mean that they've lost three

361
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: guys since the spring on the defense side of the ball.

362
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,960
Speaker 1: So again, I would lean Ohio State and anything under

363
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: two touchdowns. And that's where I expected to fall somewhere

364
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 1: between eleven and thirteen and a half. Uh. The other

365
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,679
Speaker 1: big game is Iowa Versiowa State. That it seems like

366
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 1: that game is always close, always some weird shenanigans happening.

367
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: UM any lean there or interest A lot of people

368
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,080
Speaker 1: like Iowa State this year, I it feels a little

369
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 1: overblown to me, But I don't know. I'm with you

370
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 1: on that. I look, I love Matt Campbell. I haven't

371
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 1: bet and Iowa stayed a lot the last three or

372
00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:59,880
Speaker 1: four years. I'm not Bettingham this year. I think they're

373
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 1: all were priced. I'll tell you what one thing I

374
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: want to attack. Blind's not up yet. Uh. Northern Iowa

375
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: against Iowa State. I want Northern Iowa was so bad

376
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a big number. Northern Iowa plays great defense.

377
00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,159
Speaker 1: Iowa State usually starts a season off slow. They're not

378
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: gonna show their full hand with Iowa deck. Northern i

379
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: was a really good bet. And I also bet Iowa

380
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: already against Iowa State. I got seven. So you're fading,

381
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: Matt Campbell. Huh, I'm fading, Matt camp fading. They got

382
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 1: a great team. I mean, I got him power rated

383
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: in my top ten. That's the highest I've ever had

384
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 1: him in my power ratings. But I mean, how do

385
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: they handle expectations? And Brock Purty has been there forever,

386
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: but he's not necessarily, you know, getting better and better.

387
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 1: He's what he is. He's a solid, good college quarterback.

388
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,439
Speaker 1: But I mean he's not a five star Yeah, I

389
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,679
Speaker 1: was drinking the NFL kool aid on him last year,

390
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 1: and then you watch him and you're like, I don't

391
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 1: know this guy. Uh, let's wrap up with the Texas

392
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: long Horns. I got some buddies who are headed to

393
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: Texas this weekend UH for for their opener, and next week,

394
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: you know it's have to bet. Like, I don't know

395
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:03,479
Speaker 1: what to make of Texas this year. We had Preston

396
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 1: Johnson on UH last week and he's extremely bullish on

397
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 1: Stark in Texas. Do you have any read on the

398
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: Long Words this year? And early in the season, I

399
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: have been mixed. I mean, to me, it's all about numbers.

400
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 1: I mean I thought one Casino was a little too

401
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: low on Texas. I've bet him like over five conference

402
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 1: win or no, it's four and a half conference wins.

403
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 1: And I thought they're gonna win at least five games

404
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: in the Big Twelve this year. It's not like they're

405
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 1: gonna have a losing record. I bet them over there.

406
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: I do think Stark's an upgrade as far as recruiting

407
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 1: and also offensive play calling, but offense wasn't the issue

408
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 1: for Texas last year. I mean, the average over forty

409
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,360
Speaker 1: points per game. Uh, Hudson car will be fine at quarterback.

410
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: It's a really interesting start of the season because they

411
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 1: got two really tough games. I mean they're gonna be

412
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,160
Speaker 1: favorite in both, obviously eight against Louisiana and four next

413
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 1: week at Arkansas, which is gonna be a tough game. Uh.

414
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: But right now, I'd actually bet him against Louisiana. I

415
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 1: think Louisiana is too much of a public dog and

416
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: that numbers she to me. I got, yeah, I love Louisiana.

417
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: Wanted to bet him in that game. Well I did bet.

418
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 1: I'm fourteen and a half. Now, it's not eight. That

419
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 1: opened a fourteen and a half this summer. Yeah, that

420
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 1: online to fourteen and a half? Can you believe that? Okay,

421
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 1: that five grand? They only let me bet five honored,

422
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 1: But yeah, so Brad hold the money. But it's close.

423
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 1: How can they? How can bet online open up? And

424
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 1: I know their guy? I think I follow him on Twitter.

425
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,240
Speaker 1: I forget his name, he's been around the block for

426
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 1: a while. But they opened at fourteen and a half?

427
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,880
Speaker 1: Was that like market wide or No? No, it wasn't.

428
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 1: I can't believe they did it because that line had

429
00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 1: been out at like certain places like the South Point

430
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 1: in Vegas right around it was right around ten, and

431
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 1: I thought that was a fair number. And they all

432
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,119
Speaker 1: been at fourteen and a half. I kudos to that,

433
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 1: and they took a position, but I'm glad they did.

434
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,000
Speaker 1: I took my position. I said, hey, your number is wrong.

435
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: I took the fourteen and a half. Wow. All right,

436
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 1: I'll wrap up with this, Brad. It's one of these

437
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: questions that keeps coming up in the gambling industry, like

438
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 1: you know, being banned from casinos and not being allowed

439
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,719
Speaker 1: to bet a Has that kind of happened to you?

440
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: And be like, where are you on that? Do you?

441
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 1: I know that you mentioned circa and um there guys

442
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 1: will let anybody bet any number. They just will take

443
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 1: any any bag. Um, then someone wants to drop on

444
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: the table. But a lot of other places aren't operating

445
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: like that. I'm curious as to your thoughts on this.

446
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 1: Oh wow, I got mixed feelings. I mean, I get

447
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: why everyone you know bitches and complains about it. But

448
00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 1: you know, if you had a leak in your business

449
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 1: it said, hey, man, I'm losing money from this little

450
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: sex the sector in my business. Would you want to

451
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: eliminate that. I mean, so I I see why that

452
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 1: they're doing it. Uh. I am not greedy, So I

453
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:39,760
Speaker 1: am what I am. I'm very cautious. I try and

454
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: I try not to use my player's card, you know,

455
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:44,679
Speaker 1: books that I think are really soft. I try not to.

456
00:21:45,359 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 1: I try to stay in the game as long as possible.

457
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 1: Let's put it that way. I've been limited. I've been

458
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, monitored where you know, even if it's a

459
00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 1: really small bat like two nds are gonna move it

460
00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,440
Speaker 1: big time on me after Okay, but hold on, time out,

461
00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 1: Brad hold two five hundred bucks? What do they care

462
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 1: about two five bucks when they're taking in thousands and

463
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars? Like, why does that matter to them?

464
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 1: That's what I can't grasp. And have you asked any

465
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 1: of them? Dude? Why do you give a ship about

466
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: my two hundred bet when other people make it five

467
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 1: and learn something about it? But I just, I mean,

468
00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: I'm mixed because I mean, I'm pretty cutthroat with with

469
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 1: my money. But yeah, I don't like the practice, to

470
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: be honest with you, obviously, I like the way circus

471
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 1: doing business. Anybody come in and make a bet. Here's

472
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,720
Speaker 1: the number you bet in. The number will move it

473
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 1: after you bet it. Here's your posted limit. You know

474
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 1: what you're gonna be able to bet before. I mean,

475
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: I if you're asking what I prefer, I prefer their

476
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:45,200
Speaker 1: model over everybody else's model. But I'm here to tell you, uh,

477
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,120
Speaker 1: the other people's models, the Draft Kings and everybody else

478
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 1: that's out there in the marketplace. That's that's where we're

479
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: going as a market We're not going the circule way,

480
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: I can tell you. Yeah, it's it's a little disappointing. Um,

481
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 1: just because you mentioned the word greedy. And isn't that

482
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,679
Speaker 1: what the casinos are being when they're limiting like a

483
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 1: handful of people from large bets when they've got thousands

484
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:10,399
Speaker 1: of people betting and losing. Yeah, I think so. And

485
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: look I would if I was running a sports book,

486
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,479
Speaker 1: I let pretty much anybody bat. I wouldn't let everybody.

487
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: You're turning a profit either way, right, it doesn't matter

488
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: what this guy is doing with his bet. I mean,

489
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 1: they're winning every month every week, are they not. I

490
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 1: mean there's like three I love it, like three weeks

491
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:27,320
Speaker 1: out of the year the public cleans up in the

492
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 1: NFL and there's just big Oh, the public crushed the

493
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: casinos three weeks out of what fifty if you include

494
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: the playoffs? Like, come on, who gives a ship? Brad? Like?

495
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: It just gets me annoyed. I don't know it does.

496
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: I mean, I would like say, I you know, I'm

497
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 1: booking Brad Powers. Hey, man, you can make it beat

498
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,400
Speaker 1: on anything you want, But I mean you're not gonna

499
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,520
Speaker 1: be I wouldn't allow a guy like myself the bet

500
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: ten grand I can tell you that. I mean I

501
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: would give Hey, what do you think a fair about

502
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: is a thousand, two thousand, five ur or whatever it is.

503
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: I would allow you to bet that. But I mean

504
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 1: the thing that I really bothers me. I mean there's

505
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: some people getting limited like two bucks fifty bucks on

506
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: an NFL side. I mean, forget banning. I mean, it's

507
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 1: what's the point of that get limited? So I mean again, okay,

508
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 1: so how many you said, let's say they say, Brad,

509
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: no more bets of ten thousand, will only let you

510
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: do five thousand dollar bets? I mean, Brad, how many

511
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,480
Speaker 1: people are making bets in the sports casino to the

512
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: times the amount of what your five thousand dollar bet

513
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 1: is I don't know twenty I mean, what do you

514
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,159
Speaker 1: what's your guest at least, so it just doesn't it

515
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: doesn't add up to me why they're trying to do this.

516
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: But I guess this is the way the industry is going.

517
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,240
Speaker 1: I guess one more bit pivoting off that started to

518
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 1: take up too much time here. But you know, where

519
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: are you on the whole growth of gambling and the

520
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 1: gambling gold rush? Like again, you've been doing this for

521
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,880
Speaker 1: ten years. I've been you know, gambling and talking about

522
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 1: gambling fox for about five years now, and it just

523
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: seems like the industry is just saturated. He got a

524
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: lot of um, let's just say people. I don't want

525
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: to single out any women or or young men, but

526
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,440
Speaker 1: it's just a lot of new people and everybody has

527
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: a voice and they claim they're a lock in this

528
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: game and that. And at some point should we start

529
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,239
Speaker 1: keeping track of how people are doing or does it

530
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 1: not matter or is it just like hey, caveat m

531
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: tour man, if you're not gonna do your homework, you're

532
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: schooling yourself. Ah. We could probably do a whole three

533
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 1: hour podcast on this or maybe even a series. Uh,

534
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,960
Speaker 1: I like legalization I'll put it that up. Clearly speaking,

535
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: I like it. What I don't like is, you know,

536
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 1: what's become popular in the industry, and it's within a

537
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: couple of year period, it's already. I mean, if you're

538
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: asking me, there's ten betting podcasts or whatever out there,

539
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 1: ten betting shows. You know, out of those ten, how

540
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,360
Speaker 1: many are useful to me? Maybe one? I mean it's

541
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 1: just use the word saturation. I mean, it's oversaturated at

542
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:55,040
Speaker 1: this point. But it's and look, I'll say this, I'll

543
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 1: put someone to blame on the consumer. Be better, better information,

544
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 1: and I'm not talking just picks record, Just demand better information.

545
00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:06,119
Speaker 1: You know, maybe that one bet that somebody offered lost,

546
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 1: but look at the long term results. The demand better

547
00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: is a consumer. If you want the industry to be better,

548
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: demand it and form yourself and not you know, fall

549
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 1: for I'll get myself in trouble with this. I mean that,

550
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,880
Speaker 1: you know, regardless of the guy, whether it's a guy

551
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 1: you know, screaming locks, or it's a girl and a

552
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: you know it looks great in a bikini, demand better

553
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:26,840
Speaker 1: than a him. I mean it's like, do you do

554
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 1: that with your stock stock picks? You know, do you

555
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,719
Speaker 1: just see some guys, some random dude on social media

556
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,159
Speaker 1: talking about stock picks, and then blindly tailed that as clone,

557
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,880
Speaker 1: not even knowing like what he's done historically, just because

558
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 1: he's shouting from the rooftops about a stock No, I don't.

559
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: I mean I still get people's informations, pay for it,

560
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 1: but I don't hold them to it. I just want

561
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,520
Speaker 1: I want information and then I make the bet myself.

562
00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 1: I mean I have to go on my phone and

563
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: literally make the better and if it loses, if I

564
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 1: blindly tail a guy, which never happens, it never happened

565
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: even ten years ago from me. I mean that's my responsibility.

566
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 1: I don't blame the person I got it from, but

567
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,320
Speaker 1: as a as a consumer, I still gather as much

568
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:11,440
Speaker 1: information as I can. I'm not I'm never blindly betting anybody.

569
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't care how good you are. Well. I mean, again,

570
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 1: this the Eastern Washington UNLV. To bring it back to that,

571
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: I'm on a text chain with some guys who gamble. Uh.

572
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: Two of them are based in Vegas and they were like, hey, Jake,

573
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: you gotta get on this. And I was like all right,

574
00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: And it wasn't like totally blind because I did Google

575
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,920
Speaker 1: and read a little bit, but you know they were

576
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: They don't just send out of spam out. Hey, here's

577
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 1: ten picks a weekend, here's fifteen. You know, it's just

578
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:38,199
Speaker 1: like this is the game, this is the one. And

579
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:39,560
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, so I looked into it,

580
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 1: and now that I asked you and the confirmation is there,

581
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 1: because I'm gonna go ahead and guess, Brad, if you

582

Speaker 1: do radio and podcast all week, you may not get

583
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: asked about that game once. Yeah, you're right. I mean,

584
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: if it wasn't U n l V, I would not

585
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: never get asked about that. I will because it's a

586
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: local team and I'm here in Vegas. Yeah, yeah, alright,

Speaker 1: anything blindly. UM. I will hear from some people that

604
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,560

00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,800
Speaker 1: professional gambling space, and they're gonna say, listen, I'm on this, uh,

608
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:13,000
Speaker 1: these random games that I know nothing about. UM. So

609
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 1: of these seven, five of them are my picks, two

610
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: are from elsewhere. UM. Number one the game I'm most

611
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: involved in, Miami Alabama under sixty two. We talked about

612
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: it last week with Preston Johnson. I'll be stunned if

613
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 1: Miami gets fourteen points. And if they do, this is

614
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 1: probably toasts under sixty two. Alabama's gonna score. It's just

615
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 1: a matter of how much. Uh. It feels like forty

616
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,240
Speaker 1: seven something in thereabouts. I just want to point out

617
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: to you guys. North Carolina had seven hundred and seventy

618
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:49,200
Speaker 1: eight yards of offense in one game last year against Miami.

619
00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:54,680
Speaker 1: One game, seven seventy eight yards Like that was with

620
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:59,840
Speaker 1: two defensive ends who got drafted in the NFL. Okay Alabama,

621
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: I know they're replacing everybody. I bet the under uh

622
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 1: fairly significantly. I took U c l A getting three

623
00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 1: and a half against l s U. I do not

624
00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 1: recommend it at three. Uh, you gotta get that hook. Guys.

625
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: You know three is the most key number in football betting.

626
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 1: So I got U c l A plus three and

627
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 1: a half. I took the over on b y U

628
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 1: Arizona over fifty two and a half. Um, I like

629
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 1: Texas favor by eight. Now, this one's interesting. Um the

630
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 1: number has come down. Uh. In addition to that, it

631
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 1: started to trickle up last night. I saw an eight

632
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 1: and a half. Listen, this might hit nine, could hit ten.

633
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 1: Everybody's all geeked. Um about Louisiana. You heard Brad Power

634
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: say they're a public dog. Um that's risky, uh in

635
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 1: SARKI trust can I say that so I'll go Texas

636
00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 1: minus eight. I took Cal Favor by three. Um. I

637
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 1: happen to have a weird friend who's very into Cal

638
00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 1: football um, and another guy who briefly played football at

639
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 1: Cal who's also very plugged in there. Um, and they

640
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 1: keep piping cow to me. I said, I'll take a

641
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: flyer Cal Favor by three. And finally, South Alabama minus

642
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: one and a half. If you will notice there is

643
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 1: no Clemson Georgia there. Um, I definitely like because you're

644
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 1: asking obviously, Uh, Georgia getting three and a half. But

645
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,880
Speaker 1: if it's two and a half, give me Clemson again.

646
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: Three The key number here, I think this is there's

647
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: a field goal game, right. I mean, these are two

648
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 1: very very good teams, two of the probably five six

649
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 1: best teams in the country. Uh, it's gonna be a

650
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,560
Speaker 1: close one. I don't see a blowout either way. If

651
00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: it is, I'll be stunned. If it's like, you know,

652
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,400
Speaker 1: thirty four ten, I would be shocked. I frankly, I

653
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:42,280
Speaker 1: don't think Clemson is at the level it was late

654
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 1: to Shaun Watson early. Trevor Lawrence is just not there

655
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 1: this year. Um. We'll see if Georgia can pull off

656
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,400
Speaker 1: the upset. Um I do. I do think they're They're

657
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 1: in the mix here. UM. I would recommend throwing a

658
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 1: little if you want on the U c l A

659
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: money line against L s U. It's not the biggest

660
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 1: risk in the world, but it could be fun. Um plus.

661
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 1: Like I'm out here in l A so I will

662
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 1: be rooting a little U c l A UM And

663
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 1: I guess the the final one is. And I didn't

664
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: actually bet this yet, but if you saw Ohio State

665
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,959
Speaker 1: in the first half, you were like, hm, hmmm, they

666
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: don't look great and they have Oregon next week. So

667
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: if you look at Oregon this Saturday, do you say,

668
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 1: are they thinking about Ohio State? They watched Ohio State

669
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 1: Thursday night like everybody else. Do they come out not

670
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,080
Speaker 1: as locked in? And is there maybe a chance on

671
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 1: taking the underdog and fading Oregon first quarter first half?

672
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 1: If that's an appetite for you, there there might be

673
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: something there. I would say take again or at that.

674
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: The other big game is Notre Dame in Florida State.

675
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: I really want to take Notre Dame, but I'm gonna wait.

676
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: I think we'll see some public money on Florida State

677
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 1: come in because Notre Dame. You know, they lost a quarterback,

678
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 1: lost four offensive linemen. I think the public things I don't.

679
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,360
Speaker 1: I don't like them at all yet this year, um,

680
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: so I would lean Notre Dame there, But just for

681
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 1: the purposes of tracking picks, we'll go with the initial

682
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 1: seven that I gave up. South Alabama, cal Texas U

683
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: C l A Alabama, Miami under Alabama, Miami under b

684
