17
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: gambling experts in college football, Brad Powers. This guy's been

18
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 2: doing it for a long time. You're gonna love this interview.

19
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 2: He has a lot of interesting takes. Let's get right

20
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 2: to it. Brad Powers, college football gambling guru.

21
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: You know a guy Jason likes to think he knows

22
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: everything when it comes to sports.

23
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 3: I know what sports dance wants, but for.

24
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: Everything he doesn't, he knows a guy who does.

25
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: Let's just say I know a guy who knows a

26
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: guy who knows another guy. All right, let's welcome back

27
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 2: to straight Fire, one of the foremost college football gambling

28
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 2: experts basically in America. I think I could say that

29
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 2: with some confidence, Brad Powers. He's been handicapping college football.

30
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 2: I think since like what the late eighties, perhaps, Brad,

31
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 2: how you doing man?

32
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe not the late eighties, following the sport since

33
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 3: I was a young kid, But don't age me. I

34
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 3: mean I'm old, not that old. Yeah, I remember. I

35
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 3: still think.

36
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,839
Speaker 2: My first college sports bet was in like junior year

37
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 2: of college. You know, you turn twenty one and you

38
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 2: find a couple of locals on campus who were taking

39
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:17,799
Speaker 2: some action right right about the college age.

40
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 3: Right for me, I was a little younger. Ten I

41
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 3: bet a Notre Dame Florida state game at ten years old.

42
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,720
Speaker 3: At ten years old? Yeah, points spread? Wow, do you

43
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 3: know if it covered or not? Or yeah?

44
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: No?

45
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 3: No, name one owl. Right, it was a seven point

46
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 3: dog oo. Wow. So you got the itch early, Yeah,

47
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 3: I got the hitch early. Wow. Wow.

48
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 2: Well, nobody's gonna be talking to Florida State here anytime soon.

49
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 2: But Notre Dame. We could you want to start with

50
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:45,839
Speaker 2: Notre Dame.

51
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 3: You're you're a.

52
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 2: Huge Irish guy. Yeah, you're wearing a Texas Longhorns had

53
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 2: for those watching on YouTube. Oh. Nevertheless, Marcus Freeman stays,

54
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 2: I think he probably could have had offers from the

55
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,080
Speaker 2: NFL and they quickly re upped him. Iris got what

56
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 2: a good team they opened. I think they're fifth in

57
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 2: the country something around there. The schedule is kind of favorable.

58
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 2: They going back to the playoff.

59
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 3: I think so. Certainly you mentioned schedule being favorable, They're

60
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 3: gonna be favored in all twelve games. Toughest game is

61
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 3: gonna be Week one at Miami on that opening Sunday night.

62
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 3: Not an ideal place to break in and brand new

63
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,679
Speaker 3: quarterback who hasn't made a start yet. We don't know

64
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 3: who that quarterback is going to be yet. It's an

65
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 3: ongoing battle between c. J. Carr and Kenny Minsche, two

66
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 3: talented kids. Minchi's more of a runner car more of

67
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,000
Speaker 3: a thrower obviously with the Jeans, with his grandpa being

68
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 3: the Michigan coach. But I think the rest of the

69
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 3: team is good, even better than last year's team as

70
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,240
Speaker 3: far as quality, depth, as far as talent. Obviously, they

71
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,080
Speaker 3: got to gain a lot of experience playing a bunch

72
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 3: of top teams at the end of last season. They

73
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 3: weren't healthy last year. I think people forget that. It's

74
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 3: not like it was some magical dream run. I mean,

75
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 3: certainly after Northern Illinois that that was. You know, they

76
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 3: had to win out to get to the playoff. But

77
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 3: I mean, Jeremiah Love wasn't healthy during the playoffs. Offensive

78
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 3: line what was banged up. So if they stay healthy,

79
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 3: they're just as good, if not better than last year,

80
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 3: as long as the quarterback is not that big of

81
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 3: a downgrade.

82
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 2: Well, it's funny. Riley Leonard put up massive numbers at Duke.

83
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: It seemed like they were like, hey, your strength isn't throwing.

84
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 2: We've got a great run game and offensive line. He

85
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 2: powers down and does a lot of handoffs and quarterback keepers.

86
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 2: Do you think they go back? I mean, my buddies

87
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 2: seemed to think Carr is gonna win the job. Do

88
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: you have any insight or read into that one.

89
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be CJ. Carr when it's all

90
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 3: said and done, just got more offside than Kenny minshef

91
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 3: although Minchig can run, and I think you're gonna see

92
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 3: both at some point this year. There might be a

93
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 3: package because I mean, look, Riley Leonard in short yardage

94
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 3: running worked. That was I mean, that was their best

95
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 3: offensive play last year. What was third and short? It

96
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 3: was a guaranteed first down with Riley running, and you're

97
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 3: not gonna get that this year. But I expect to

98
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 3: see both quarterbacks. I think they can be better in

99
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 3: the passing game. It's not like Riley Leonard, you know,

100
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 3: you know what was a great passer. I mean, I

101
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 3: would say argue is too. Best passing games was probably

102
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 3: the second half against Penn State and the second half

103
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 3: against the buck Geys, so and you saw it once

104
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 3: they could.

105
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: Throw the ball.

106
00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 3: I mean, even two great defenses couldn't really stop this

107
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: no name offense. I think they'll be better at wide receiver.

108
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 3: I'm pretty high. I bet and win the title, and

109
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 3: I am very I am a chicken. Little sky is

110
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,400
Speaker 3: falling very like woe is me Notre Dame fan, but

111
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 3: I've only made two bets to win the title this year.

112
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 3: They're one of the two teams.

113
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 2: Well, who's the other one?

114
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 3: The team that I think it's still being slept on,

115
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 3: the little old team called the Crimson Tide of Alabama.

116
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 3: I just I think that was just we can put

117
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 3: that off for one year. You know, de Boor had

118
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 3: a slip up there, but I still think he's one

119
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 3: of the best coaches. And I still think this, you know,

120
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 3: is as good as a rosters any if not the

121
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 3: best roster in college football, provided Tys Simpson can get

122
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 3: them a little a lot more out of the passing

123
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 3: game than what they got from Milroe the last couple

124
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 3: of years. They got two great weapons at wide receiver

125
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 3: and Ryan Williams. I mean, if we're just doing like

126
00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 3: stack ranking top one hundred players NFL Draft, Alabama's got

127
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 3: as much as anybody. So I just think after a

128
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 3: year where you know, Vanderbilt beats some Oklahoma beats some

129
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 3: Michigan beat some all big favorites losing outright, I think

130
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 3: they're just getting slept on. And keep in mind the

131
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 3: bor didn't forget out of coach just for one year.

132
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 3: He gets his right hand man back and Ryan Rubb,

133
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 3: who is you know, one year at Seattle. But I

134
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 3: mean he's been with him throughout his career. Having him

135
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 3: back as the OC is gonna help. But I they're

136
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 3: gonna be an underdog in one game at Georgia and

137
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 3: they've owned Georgia and Kirby smart as a brain fart

138
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 3: whenever he's playing Alabama. But I I like, I bet

139
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 3: the Tide in a lot of markets winning total over

140
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 3: SEC to win the SEC to win the national championship.

141
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 3: I think ty Simpson's a sleeper in the Heisman market.

142
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 2: Interesting, So I'm looking at the schedule. You know, SEC

143
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 2: always tough. They'll beat Florida State pretty handily. W what's

144
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 2: is spread in that? Like fourteen at least?

145
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, thirteen. I bet at Alabama in that game. I

146
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: still think there's some slight value.

147
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: There going on the road. It Tallahassee game what he

148
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 2: used to be Georgia. That game is at Georgia. Weirdly,

149
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 2: it's early in the season. They do get a buye

150
00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 2: before it, so there'll be a dog in that one.

151
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 2: But the rest of the schedule Tennessee at South Carolina LSU, Oklahoma.

152
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 3: That's four ranked.

153
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 2: Teams in a row. Looks like October November, so that

154
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 2: that could be challenging.

155
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:16,559
Speaker 3: No, yeah, certainly, and they get a buye before LSU.

156
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 3: But they're gonna be favoring all those games. And if

157
00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 3: you don't believe me, you can bet all those games

158
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,560
Speaker 3: right now. And Alabama's a touchdown favorite at South Carolina,

159
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 3: touchdown favorite at home against LSU, a two touchdown favorite

160
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 3: at home with revenge against Oklahoma. So I'm not the

161
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 3: only one that's pretty high on Alabama. There's just you know,

162
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 3: certain markets where I just thought they were undervalued, whether

163
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 3: it be the futures market. I mean, they're win total.

164
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 3: Jason opened at eight and a half and eight and

165
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 3: a half went total on Alabama? Are you kidding me?

166
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 3: I mean, divorce should be fired if they going for

167
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 3: if I lose that bad.

168
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 2: Well wait a second, what's it up to now?

169
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 3: Nine and a half?

170
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, nine and a half.

171
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, So that's interesting because I wonder and I bring

172
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: this up because I saw that Texas is the is

173
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 2: the number one ranked team, which seems I don't know

174
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 2: that's accurate. I mean, I don't know if it should

175
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 2: be accurate, but they are underdogs at Ohio State, the

176
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 2: first number one team to be an underdog in its opener,

177
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:08,559
Speaker 2: I guess, and forever maybe all time. And I wonder

178
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 2: is Alabama's name recognition getting them favorite in a lot

179
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: of these games against the SEC because they, like you said,

180
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 2: they were not very good last year.

181
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

182
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 3: I mean there's what we call priors kind of baked

183
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 3: into the some of these markets where you know, you're

184
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 3: not going from Alabama to South Alabama in one season,

185
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 3: So I mean you got to have some baked in,

186
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 3: whether it's recruiting classes, past performance. So I hear you

187
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 3: on that. But keep in mind, you know there was

188
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 3: a reason why the winter it was only eight and

189
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 3: a half. I mean a lot if we would have

190
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 3: gotten spreads then on a lot of these games, I'm

191
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 3: guessing that they wouldn't have been significant favorites against LSU,

192
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 3: against South Carolina, against Oklahoma because that just doesn't equate

193
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 3: to an eight and a half win total.

194
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting.

195
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 3: I'm sure were you early on that. Do you think

196
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 3: you moved Oh? Yeah, by early I'm talking Jason, I

197
00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 3: know people are like, well, we're getting there. I mean,

198
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 3: and I was betting stuff in January and February.

199
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: January and February. Yeah, yeah, you have to be on it.

200
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 3: They they release week one the big games. I mean

201
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 3: it's not like you're betting Temple and Massachusetts, but you

202
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:19,400
Speaker 3: know the top ten to fifteen programs. They're games, win totals, futures.

203
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 3: It's all up in January.

204
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 2: Interesting portal.

205
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 3: So it's what it's went into. Jason. Is when I

206
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 3: started this, you know, I'd bounce around. Okay, I'm gonna

207
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 3: do a little basketball, you know, betting and stuff like that.

208
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 3: I am almost all football now. It's just year round.

209
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 3: I mean, you got college or are you doing NFL too?

210
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 3: I do NFL, yeah yeah, but you're out on hoops.

211
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 2: Huh.

212
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 3: I am out on hoops. It's to I mean with

213
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 3: the portal with college basketball, it's just it's too much

214
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:46,080
Speaker 3: for me.

215
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 2: It's a little crazy.

216
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 3: All right.

217
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,599
Speaker 2: Let me hit one of those teams that So I

218
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 2: did a mock draft for Fox Sports after the twenty

219
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 2: five draft, and I had this kid Sellers from South Carolina,

220
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 2: very high, and people like, what are you smoking? He's

221
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 2: not even that good. He only has started last year

222
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 2: put up modest numbers, but it's more you know, six

223
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 2: three two forty, can run, can throw. Is South Carolina

224
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 2: like a threat in any way, shape or form with

225
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 2: this kid? Sellers?

226
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 3: What are your thoughts on them? So I love the kids, Sellers.

227
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 3: I really have been high on him. I saw him

228
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 3: in a spring game a couple of years ago. You

229
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 3: just you could tell right then, prototypical could be the

230
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 3: you know, when it's all said and done, first pick

231
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 3: taken as far as the quarterbacks in the next draft.

232
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 3: But that being said, I don't like what's around him.

233
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 3: I just don't see it around skill position on offense.

234
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 3: Where I really don't see it, Jason, when you're talking

235
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 3: NFL draft, is they lost five guys on their defense

236
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 3: went in the first four rounds of the draft. They're

237
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 3: not Alabama, they're not Georgia, they're not Ohio State. They're

238
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 3: not just you know, pumping in you know, five more

239
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 3: draft picks. This is South Carolina. They recruit okay, but

240
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 3: not you know, at a top ten level. So I

241
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,720
Speaker 3: don't like that. But what I really don't like go

242
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,160
Speaker 3: look at the pop up their schedule October and November.

243
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 3: There's a good chance they could be an underdog in

244
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 3: six of the last seven games. So, I mean they

245
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 3: play and almost all six of those teams top twenty

246
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 3: ish teams, whether it's you know, the LSUS, the the Alabama's,

247
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 3: Oklahoma's Clemsons, you name it. I think they can get

248
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 3: off to a fast start. But I just I don't

249
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 3: think that this roster is built for playing, you know,

250
00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:21,840
Speaker 3: six top twenty ish teams in a seven week period. Yeah.

251
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 2: My draft people that are following it closely are like,

252
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 2: you got to check out this kid at Harbor, this

253
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 2: receiver South Carolina. I'm like, I'll just ask Brad. If

254
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 2: Brad knows anything about him, where are you going? Yeah?

255
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So he's got the measurables. He's a track star.

256
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 3: He just hasn't put it on the field yet. I

257
00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,560
Speaker 3: mean it's there, but he's got you know, you got

258
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 3: to put on the helmet and the shoulder pads, and

259
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 3: he's he hasn't. It's been all hype and nothing on

260
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 3: the field yet. But there's I mean, the draft guys

261
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 3: like you mentioned are gonna love him, Yeah, but not

262
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,079
Speaker 3: to be my I love production. I like production over potential.

263
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's one of those looks like Targe plays like Jay.

264
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,439
Speaker 3: Is it so far, yes, so far?

265
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 2: All right, all right, let's stick with the South Carolina

266
00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 2: schedule and go to their last game against Clemson. So

267
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,200
Speaker 2: we were on a trip to the Caribbean and we

268
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 2: happen to be sitting next to this couple at dinner

269
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 2: and there are diehard South Carolina fans and they're like,

270
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 2: we like to see some freaking Clemson.

271
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 3: So loaded, Clemson is probably gonna win.

272
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 2: The national championship. I guess their whole Like, you know,

273
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,280
Speaker 2: if you're close to South Carolina program, everything hinges on

274
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 2: that Clemson game. And you know, we had Brad not Brad,

275
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,160
Speaker 2: what's his name, Bruce Feldman on the pod and he's like, listen, man,

276
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 2: I know Clemson hasn't been great the last few years.

277
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 2: They're stacked. Where are you on the Tigers.

278
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's their best team since Trevor Lawrence was behind

279
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 3: center for them, So best team for them in five years.

280
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,439
Speaker 3: But it's not like they've been terrible. I mean, they've

281
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 3: won forty games the last four years, average ten wins.

282
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,079
Speaker 3: It's just, you know, there their boardline, you know, acc contender,

283
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 3: playoff contender. But there's a difference between being a playoff

284
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 3: contender and a national championship contender, and this year's team

285
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 3: is in notional championship contender. Club knicks back at quarterback

286
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 3: for another year. His best season, by far was last season,

287
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 3: and the big thing is he hasn't had the type

288
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 3: of weapons that Trevor Lawrence had around him. Now he does.

289
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,560
Speaker 3: Their wide receiver room probably second to only Ohio State nationally.

290
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 3: As part of your stack ranking Ohio state rooms, and

291
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 3: they started showing themselves at the end of last year.

292
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 3: Clubnik had a big game against Texas. Is really good

293
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 3: secondary in the playoffs last year. Defensive line maybe not

294
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 3: as good as maybe the sixteen or eighteen teams that

295
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 3: won the national championship, but it's their best defensive line

296
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 3: in the last five years. Schedule sets up nicely where

297
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 3: they'll least be they'll be favorite in every game. Now

298
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 3: they got to get a you know, they went zer

299
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 3: and three against the SEC last year and they open

300
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 3: up with an SEC team called LSU. It is in

301
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 3: Death Valley. Well, of course it is both the places

302
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 3: of Death Valley, but it's at Clemson's Death Valley, and

303
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 3: the markets bet them up in this game. It opened

304
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 3: under a field goal is blown through a field goal.

305
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 3: Now they're four to four and a half point favorite

306
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,040
Speaker 3: in that game. So if they win that one, that's

307
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 3: probably their toughest game, you know, prior of playing that

308
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 3: rivalry game at the end at South Carolina. South Carolina

309
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 3: you know, beat them last year on their home fields.

310
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 3: So I just they're the runaway favorite in the ACC.

311
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 3: I met him to win the ACC went over their

312
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 3: win total, which was nine and a half. I bet

313
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 3: Club Nick to win the Heisman. It's another team like Allabama,

314
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 3: where I got as much futures at stake on Clemson

315
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 3: as any team in the country.

320
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 2: Maybe it's because I've seen this quarterback for a few years,

321
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 2: but I just I haven't seen awesome. I mean, I've

322
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 2: seen solid and good, but I don't know that what

323
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 2: do I missing? Let me ask you that what am

324
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 2: I missing with?

325
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 3: Well, I think it's it's tough for him because he's

326
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 3: probably getting compared to Trevor Lawrence and Deshaun Watson, which

327
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 3: were you know, top two you know quarterbacks and college

328
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 3: football for multiple seasons in a row. He's not that.

329
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 3: Even though I just said I bet him to win

330
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 3: the Heisman. I just he put heisman esque numbers. Go

331
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 3: look at him, pull him up from last year. Uh

332
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 3: I again, I go back to he hasn't been he

333
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 3: doesn't have. Uh. You know some of the talent like

334
00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 3: Trevor Lawrence and Deshaun Watson had around him a wide

335
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 3: receiver or running back. Running back is a concern still

336
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 3: this year. So I think too much has been put

337
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 3: on his plate. And then he's also trying to live

338
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 3: up the expectations of those you know, two great recent

339
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:23,920
Speaker 3: cleansing quarterbacks.

340
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, let me ask you about that. Opener gets LSU

341
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,800
Speaker 2: another quarterback. Again. Maybe it's the Hey, I've already seen

342
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 2: this guy for a year or two. I've just he

343
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 2: didn't pop. But Nussmeier everybody.

344
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 3: Seemed oh pro and he looked. I mean, I don't know,

345
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 3: do you.

346
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,880
Speaker 2: Think he's that good? Is he a better?

347
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 3: How about this?

348
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,920
Speaker 2: Let me rephrase it. Is he a really good college

349
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,480
Speaker 2: quarterback or a really good pro prospect, which are two

350
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 2: very different things.

351
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know if he's either, Oh good quarter

352
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:56,479
Speaker 3: you said really good he's a good college quarterback. I

353
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 3: I don't have him. You know, I didn't bet, you know,

354
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 3: I make a few Heisman bets. I didn't bet him

355
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,640
Speaker 3: to win the Heisman. Not not because I'm way down

356
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 3: on him. I just, you know, Heisman is also kind

357
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 3: of a team award. You gotta win a bunch of

358
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 3: games more often than not. Besides, you know, Travis Hunter

359
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 3: and Colorado last year. But I just I don't see

360
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 3: it either. Turnover prone last year. He's got a better

361
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 3: wide receiver corps this year. His offensive line that will

362
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 3: take some major step back in experience. If you follow

363
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 3: fall camp, he's been hurt. Nus Meyer. There was, you know,

364
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 3: rumors that he might have torn his acl you know,

365
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 3: and that's not it. But he's got some knee tendonitis,

366
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 3: so he's not healthy right now. I just an LSU

367
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 3: program that's lost five straight season openers. I just mentioned

368
00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 3: it dog again at Clemson. I think if you're going

369
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 3: to buy LSU, buy him after week one. I think

370
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 3: they lose that game. So yeah, you can buy low

371
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 3: after week one.

372
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 2: I look at Nutsbayer's career and it just jumps like

373
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 2: Kenny Pickett, you know, like oh, he's okay, he's a backup,

374
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 2: he's okay, and then a huge season four thousand yards

375
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: last year. But was it just because he's, you know,

376
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 2: a twenty three year old quarterback. Now, I mean, the

377
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 2: guy's old as hell to be in college. He's not

378
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 2: Tyler Shook or anything. But sometimes you see these twenty three,

379
00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 2: twenty four year old quarterbacks, it finally clicks because they're

380
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 2: throwing against the nineteen year olds.

381
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 3: You know, Yeah, I agree with that. He's a coach's son,

382
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:19,199
Speaker 3: so he's a smart kid. He just he's not a

383
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 3: franchise quarterback the next level. I can tell you that.

384
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 3: I don't know if he's good enough. Look, i mean

385
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 3: LSU with Jane Daniels last three games. I mean, I

386
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 3: just I'm not buying this LSU team with Nussmyer.

387
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 2: Which brings us to Brian Kelly, a former Notre Dame coach.

388
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 2: If they what's the number of wins they need to

389
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 2: get this year to get him away from the hot seat,

390
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 2: And I know that sounds crazy, and I'm sure they

391
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 2: that's ridiculous, but they've kind of underwhelmed it. He's like

392
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,080
Speaker 2: he just got kind of the vibe of sorry for

393
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 2: the wardops. He just feels like a dick.

394
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 3: I don't know that I can tell you because I

395
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 3: know some people close. The word choice that was used

396
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 3: was when he decided to leave for LSU, that they

397
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 3: would they had no problem in the offices and the administration.

398
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 3: You know, if he had to pick up people to

399
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 3: help him move, there would have been enough peop volunteers.

400
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 3: They can put it that way. So he had run

401
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 3: his course with not only the fan base but the

402
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 3: people there. He's a good coach, I mean, I'm not

403
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,159
Speaker 3: going to sit there and tell you he's not. He

404
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,639
Speaker 3: wins football games. Does he win enough? Though? At a

405
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 3: place where the previous three coaches all won a national

406
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,959
Speaker 3: championship by year four? Again, I'm not seeing it. So uh,

407
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,400
Speaker 3: you mentioned the buyout. That's what's saving him. I mean

408
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,160
Speaker 3: it was one hundred million dollars guaranteed contract and he's

409
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,439
Speaker 3: only entering year four, so you do the math on

410
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 3: that ten million a year. I mean they still owe

411
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 3: him quite a bit. I think he's safe. He's very

412
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 3: I think he's safe unless it's an absolute dumpster fire,

413
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:45,960
Speaker 3: which I don't see. He rarely can does that. Yeah,

414
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:47,680
Speaker 3: But I do think as far as getting the fan

415
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 3: base off his back a little bit. He's got to

416
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 3: go to the playoffs this year, and right now they're

417
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:52,959
Speaker 3: an underdog to make the playoffs. Oh, no way, get

418
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 3: winning a title. They're an underdog to make a twelve

419
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 3: team playoff. That's where they're at.

420
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't see that Again. Maybe I was being harsh,

421
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 2: Like you said, good football coach. But he's the kind

422
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 2: of guy this is what I've heard, like he brightens

423
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 2: a room by leaving it Like that's the vibe of

424
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:13,199
Speaker 2: Brian Kelly. Just not a warm individual. But I like you,

425
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: I think he's a very good college football coach. I

426
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 2: wanted to go back to Clemson for a sec because

427
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 2: their schedule includes a team in the ACC that I'm into.

428
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 2: I'm curious how you've bet North Carolina and Belichick. I've

429
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 2: tried to do homework on the offense and the offensive

430
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,880
Speaker 2: coordinator in the quarterback. There's not a ton out there.

431
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,360
Speaker 2: But you're the oracle, so tell us what's up.

432
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 3: I wish I was the oracle, but then again, I

433
00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 3: might not be talking to you if I was. I'm

434
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 3: obviously choking a little bit. Yeah, but I am out.

435
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,400
Speaker 3: I'm not meandering here. I'm out. I've been out since

436
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,400
Speaker 3: as soon as they post in North Carolina's went Towl

437
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 3: at seven and a half. I bet on her one

438
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:54,920
Speaker 3: of the first bets I made this offseason. I'm talking

439
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,919
Speaker 3: in January. I bet that. I also bet him against

440
00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 3: him in Week one. I think TC takes care of

441
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:02,919
Speaker 3: busines at North Carolina in that game. I don't like, Uh,

442
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 3: you know, I'm not a when it came for a

443
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 3: majority of that whole Belichick Versus Brady debate, I was

444
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,879
Speaker 3: actually on Belichick's side for a long time until I

445
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 3: wasn't until I got that data point with him without

446
00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 3: them a couple of years without Brady, he's mediocre. Brady

447
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 3: wins the super Bowl, and we have I'm always talking

448
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 3: sample sized data points. Well, we have one hundred plus

449
00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 3: data points with him without Brady as a quarterback, and

450
00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 3: he's below five hundred. Coach, now, you're telling me he's

451
00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 3: in his middle seventies. He's the oldest coach in college

452
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 3: football doing something he hasn't done ever before in his

453
00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 3: career for the first time. I'm not buying it. I'm

454
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 3: not buying this support staff. I don't like the OC

455
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 3: that much. His son is the DC did okay at Washington,

456
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 3: but it's not like he's got a ton of experience.

457
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,000
Speaker 3: Also not buying going out and get your starting quarterback

458
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 3: post spring, which is what they did, go Lopez from

459
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 3: South Alabama. Nice group of five starting quarterback, but again

460
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:56,359
Speaker 3: getting that kid acclimated forget spring post spring just I

461
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,639
Speaker 3: don't see it now. The only thing that's maybe bails

462
00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 3: him out is what the schedule is pretty easy. I mean,

463
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 3: they do play clams in. I do think they lose

464
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 3: the TCU in the opener, but a lot. I mean,

465
00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:10,479
Speaker 3: they're just as good as a lot of these ACC teams.

466
00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 3: But uh, generally speaking, Jason, I think it's gonna be

467
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 3: a dumpster fire.

468
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:15,480
Speaker 1: Wow.

469
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 2: Oh so so playoff is a bit a bit rich, Okay,

470
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 2: way a bit rich. Yeah, yeah, I mean I think, well,

471
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,360
Speaker 2: it's interesting you you tore him the shreds there with

472
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 2: and did a good job. I guess a potential counter is, well,

473
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 2: who the hell was Tom Brady? He went to Michigan

474
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 2: as like the seventh string guy, waited his turn, had

475
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 2: a good year, and then it's a sixth round pick.

476
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 2: Nobody really wanted him, and if Drew BLOODSOE doesn't go down?

477
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 2: What is Tom Brady's you know point?

478
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:45,840
Speaker 3: I mean, I I don't, I don't.

479
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:47,439
Speaker 2: I don't think there's any answer to that. It's why

480
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,959
Speaker 2: we love sports, and everybody talks about it, like if

481
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 2: Bloodshow doesn't get knocked out by Moe Lewis and Brady

482
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,439
Speaker 2: comes in and just absolutely crushes what were do we

483
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 2: ever get Tom Brady? I mean, it's really one of

484
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,480
Speaker 2: the crazier mounts at point. I don't really know the answer.

485
00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 2: Now again, Brady works in Fox with me. He's obviously

486
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 2: you go, he's super nice guy, but you're probably owned

487
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 2: to something that North Carrot now does. TCU games interesting?

488
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:11,120
Speaker 2: Are they any good?

489
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think they're flying under the radar. They won

490
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 3: nine games last year. I think people you know that

491
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 3: since the you know, they played in national Championship a

492
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 3: couple of years ago. Ever since that lost to color

493
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 3: Rat on that opener the coach prime, I think everyone

494
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 3: threw that program in the trash, but very quietly off

495
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 3: a nine win season and boy better this year. And

496
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 3: here's the things. Sometimes you gotta just read Tea leaves

497
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:37,120
Speaker 3: and go just one step further. In today's college football market,

498
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 3: Sonny Dikes didn't go out in the portal. So the

499
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 3: average number of transfers that a big twelve team took

500
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 3: this year twenty six, twenty six transfers, so a lot

501
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 3: of turmoil in that conference wide open conference. TCU took twelve,

502
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 3: so they took a little bit less than half of

503
00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 3: the average number. And Sonny Dyke's they asked him, He's like,

504
00:22:55,040 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 3: I like my roster, so I like continuity, and I

505
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 3: just I mean, the transfer portal can work great. I mean,

506
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 3: at looking Forest State worked great for a couple of years,

507
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 3: then I mean the dumpster. I just there's too much

508
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 3: variance of transfer portal teams. I think the teams, as

509
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 3: far as I'm trusting with my bankroll, are teams like

510
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 3: TCU that aren't dipping into the portal too much.

511
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 2: Now that's interesting because Texas Tech clearly won the transfer portal.

512
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 2: There's so many stories out there. I think ESPN and

513
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 2: the Athletic detailing how their billionaire guy was just like, hey,

514
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 2: well I'll write a blank check what whoever we want,

515
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 2: and they went shopping and got a bunch of good players.

516
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,160
Speaker 2: Now it worked in the past for TCU, it worked

517
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 2: in the past for Indiana last year. I think SMU

518
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 2: as well. Do you think Texas Tech could surprise the

519
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 2: people to have you bet them?

520
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:47,000
Speaker 3: I have because at least the early markets did not

521
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 3: have that factored in as far as hey, they just

522
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 3: went out and got maybe the best transfer portal class

523
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 3: in the country. Just that I mean went to was

524
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 3: seven and a half. They were like the six or

525
00:23:55,720 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 3: seventh favorite in the Big Twelve. So yeah, but price matters.

526
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 3: And now if you're asking, am I bet running the

527
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:03,120
Speaker 3: window to bet?

528
00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: Now?

529
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,399
Speaker 3: If this was the first number I saw eight and

530
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 3: a half with the overjuice and they're the cole favorite

531
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,880
Speaker 3: to win with the conference, I wouldn't betting at now

532
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 3: because I don't have high confidence that it's all going

533
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 3: to come together and work. The quarterback is injury prone.

534
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 3: He's okay, Baron Morton's his name, but again it had

535
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 3: another procedure this offseason. I don't love that. But in

536
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 3: a conference like the Big Twelve, when you go out

537
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 3: and get in my opinion on paper and sec caliber

538
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 3: defensive line, that might be good enough to be the

539
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,760
Speaker 3: difference this year. So I can see it. I just

540
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 3: it's not high confidences. Not one of my favorite bets

541
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 3: I made this offseason.

542
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 2: I haven't looked deep into the Big twelve, but it

543
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 2: seems kind of weak. Their schedule includes Arkansas Pine Bluff

544
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 2: and Kent State early, they do have to go to

545
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 2: Utah and Arizona State.

546
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,640
Speaker 3: Is Kansas State me good this year? I Canna State.

547
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 3: It's one of the top teams, so they're actually underdogs

548
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,720
Speaker 3: in those games against you know, Utah and Arizona State.

549
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,159
Speaker 3: Utah is going to be maybe one of the most

550
00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,399
Speaker 3: improved teams in the country. So that one's is your quarterback?

551
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 3: The guy who's like thirty one years old?

552
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 2: Uh? What's his cam recently?

553
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: No?

554
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, we finally Jason after like four straight years of

555
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 3: every game. Will he play? Will he not play? What's

556
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 3: the injury report? No more of that. They got a

557
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,159
Speaker 3: kid from New Mexico dual threat ram for a thousand

558
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,359
Speaker 3: yards last year. Can throw it a little bit too,

559
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 3: Devin damp Year. I like him so much. He's one

560
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 3: of my five highsman, bets I made. What Yeah, that's

561
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 3: all good?

562
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 2: Go wait a bit a hold hold time. So this

563
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 2: guy comes from New Mexico.

564
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 3: Yeah and run. I mean he might be the best

565
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,399
Speaker 3: running quarterback in the country and what I saw at

566
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 3: least it was one of the few spring games. As

567
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 3: they watched, looks improved as a passer comes over with

568
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 3: his offensive coordinator from New Mexico. So they're at least

569
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 3: I mean, he knows the system, Devin damp Year. Look,

570
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 3: it was a huge long shot one hundred and fifty

571
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 3: to one, but I mean somebody out there might agree

572
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 3: with me. He's down in like fifty to one right now.

573
00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,439
Speaker 3: Oh damn. Well, I mean it depends.

574
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 2: You could be move the lines with your bets, you know.

575
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,480
Speaker 3: I mean, if you put I try to keep it quiet.

576
00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 3: I bet it under different uh you know, illegal Hopefully

577
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 3: they're not listening. I've bet it under different names and whatnot.

578
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 3: But I try to keep it quiet. So it's just

579
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 3: not me, you know. Oh yeah, we got to move it.

580
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 2: Oh wait, this guy completed fifty seven percent of his

581
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,120
Speaker 2: passes in New Mexico. Yeah, well, touchdown.

582
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:21,360
Speaker 3: The kid's going to be good.

583
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,639
Speaker 2: Well, you do watch spring games. I do.

584
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 3: When I see you post that stuff, I just start

585
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 3: cracking up. All right.

586
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 2: So, but Arizona State's the class in the Big twelve, right, yeah?

587
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,720
Speaker 3: They are? Now. I mean, typically when a team has

588
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 3: like their best season, and since Jake the Snake was

589
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 3: their quarterback almost thirty years ago, I would be like regression.

590
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 3: I mean, this team's gonna fall flat, you know, right

591
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 3: back to the middle. I don't see it. They got

592
00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 3: as much returning production as any team in the country.

593
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 3: The only player of note that they lost, it's a

594
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 3: big loss. He was the hard and soul of their team.

595
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:52,480
Speaker 3: Scataboo at running back, but yeah, the quarterbacks back. I

596
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 3: think people forget that they had an out one of

597
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 3: the best wide receivers in the Big Twelve last year,

598
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 3: Tyson's his name. He didn't play in the playoffs. In

599
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 3: the game they almost won, and speak in that game,

600
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 3: I think people forget Texas had to convert a fourth

601
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 3: and ten to put that in a second half time

602
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 3: Arizona State very I mean, could have won that game easily.

603
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: Uh.

604
00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 3: I like him. I'm buying Kenny Dillingham. I think he's

605
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 3: just the future superstar as a coach.

606
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 2: Where's he coaching next year. Let's say they go back

607
00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,399
Speaker 2: to the playoff, which you know seems likely. I mean,

608
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 2: so Sketabo was a monster. Let's say get back to

609
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 2: the playoff. He could basically pick his next job, right, Yeah.

610
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 3: He could go to a top five job if he

611
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,320
Speaker 3: wants it. Just question they have the money there. I mean,

612
00:27:30,600 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 3: he's a local kid, went went to Arizona State. Uh,

613
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 3: he wants to stay there. They gave him. You know,

614
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,920
Speaker 3: he's making decent money, but he can get an extra

615
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 3: three four million at a big school.

616
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 2: Well that way, I'm looking at his coaching career. He

617
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 2: was He's been at Auburn FSU or so. He's kind

618
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 2: of been around. But it is interesting.

619
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 3: You're right, he.

620
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:54,359
Speaker 2: Uh, he's a local guy. I wonder if he would leave.

621
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 2: How about This is a bit crazy, but Jonathan Gannon

622
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,360
Speaker 2: the Cardinals Arizona in the NFL, they just appoint again

623
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 2: and gets run. Do they go after dealing him?

624
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 3: Right now? He doesn't feel like a pro guy. Maybe

625
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,320
Speaker 3: later in his in his life, you know, after he's

626
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 3: coached maybe college ten years, maybe I could.

627
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:12,360
Speaker 2: See he's the coach at two years.

628
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,919
Speaker 3: He's a raw rock kid, very emotional. I think he

629
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 3: stays there, to be honest with you, I mean he could.

630
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 3: He's already talked to you know, building something like long

631
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 3: term there and they.

632
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 2: Do they have the financial wherewithal to compete with the

633
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 2: big dogs like Texas Tech has the one billionaire who's

634
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 2: just like right never is the what's it called? The

635
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 2: collective at Arizona State? Are they a factor?

636
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 3: They don't as of right now. But I mean, you

637
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 3: put it together a couple of seasons, uh like they

638
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 3: had last year. I mean, you should be able to

639
00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:45,080
Speaker 3: get some support and you know, a top ten market

640
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:49,160
Speaker 3: there in Phoenix. But just to put in perspective, how

641
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,239
Speaker 3: much they don't. They're up against it. They don't even

642
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,480
Speaker 3: have an indoor practice facility. I saw him ten Arizona

643
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,080
Speaker 3: do and have an indoor practice facility.

644
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 2: That's insane.

645
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 1: All right?

646
00:28:57,920 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 3: A couple more real quick.

647
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 2: First of all, did this oak Lahoma story the quarterback

648
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 2: and his how much of a loser does this person

649
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 2: have to be to go through three years of VENMO

650
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 2: payments from John Matteia I believe is his name in

651
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 2: the quarterback at Oklahoma to find that he as seemingly

652
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 2: joking saying gambling on Notre Day or whatever the game was,

653
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 2: and they lit him up and now there's like an investigation.

654
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,680
Speaker 2: He says it was an inside joke. I don't know, Brad,

655
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 2: I'm sure you have big thoughts on this.

656
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 3: It's not a mover for me. I think you should

657
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:36,200
Speaker 3: be okay, I mean, just lie and Na we were

658
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:37,959
Speaker 3: just joking. I mean, how are they gonna prove it?

659
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 3: I don't get it.

660
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 2: I'm sure what about the these are like I'm assuming

661
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 2: just creeps on a message board thinking oh oh, I

662
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 2: can out like that's never gonna stop. Unfortunately, because college

663
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 2: football thought it's not.

664
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 3: It's only gonna get worse, to be honest with you,

665
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 3: so it probably did gamble on it, to be honest

666
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 3: with you. But I to me, the market moved a

667
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 3: little bit, though a little bit. Uh, there was some

668
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 3: people bet case. I wasn't one of those people. I

669
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 3: just I'll be surprised if he gets suspended.

670
00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 2: No way, no shot. All right, So Texas arch Manning,

671
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 2: I would say, I'll wind you up and go. I

672
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:13,719
Speaker 2: think they're over ranked at one and again to Feldman

673
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 2: made a good point. They got four new offensive linemen.

674
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 2: I know it's four and five star guys, but there's

675
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 2: a lot of newness there. You got to open at

676
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 2: Ohio State. I'm on the Buckeyes in that one. Where

677
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 2: are you on Texas?

678
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 3: This yere, I'm gonna concur I think they are overrated

679
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 3: at one. I'm wearing that hat. I mean I like

680
00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 3: doing that. People always gonna be pro Texas now I'm

681
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 3: gonna be pretty anti Texas here at least it's all

682
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 3: you know, price comparative. But there's a reason why they

683
00:30:40,080 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 3: went totals only nine and a half. Have you seen

684
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,560
Speaker 3: a preseason number one team with a nine and a

685
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 3: half win total. I haven't seen in fifteen years. Again,

686
00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 3: underdog in Week one against the Buckeyes, I'm with you.

687
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 3: I bet Ohio State and anything under three Ohio State

688
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 3: for me. You mentioned the offensive line, but I think

689
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 3: that was a position group. That's the biggest question mark.

690
00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 3: They couldn't run the football in any of the big

691
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,080
Speaker 3: games last year. I couldn't run it against Georgia and

692
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 3: either one of those games. Couldn't run against the Buckeyes.

693
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 3: And I just mentioned that Arizona State game. They couldn't

694
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 3: run the football against Arizona State. Even though they averaged

695
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 3: weight pound advantage sixty pounds per man. They couldn't run

696
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,000
Speaker 3: the football there. So how are they gonna do it

697
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 3: with brand new starters? I don't see it early. There'll

698
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 3: be an underdog at Georgia too, so and then at

699
00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 3: Florida there's some other getting the schedules tougher. And most importantly,

700
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 3: I can't believe we've been talking for a while here.

701
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:32,680
Speaker 3: I'm not buying arch at least compared to expectations. Not

702
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 3: buying them.

703
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 2: That's a hot take, greak there.

Speaker 2: What do you mean by expectation win the high scho.

709
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 3: He's the preseason Heisman favorite. I mean generational quarterback. People

710
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 3: say he's the best college quarterback in a decade. Let

711
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 3: me tell you if generational quarterbacks don't wait to their

712
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 3: junior year play to be the starter. I think a

713
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 3: couple of years I talked to you now. It was

714
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 3: a good sound by. They said five star last name,

715
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 3: Maybe three star talent, probably a four star talent if

716
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 3: I'm being totally honest, But I don't see five star.

717
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 3: I mean his uncle Peyton, generational player. He started as

718
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 3: a true freshman. I go back forty some years, Marino Elway,

719
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 3: they all played as freshman. You know, all the Trevor

720
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 3: Lawrence starter, National Championship, true freshman. If he's so good,

721
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 3: I thought Steve Spurrier had the sound bite of the

722
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 3: summer and he you know, he has no filter that

723
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:35,719
Speaker 3: the old the old ball coach said. Quinn Ewers went

724
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 3: in the seventh round. I mean, it's not like he

725
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,280
Speaker 3: was back, you know, behind, you know, a surefire first

726
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 3: round pick. If arch Manning is so good, why wasn't

727
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 3: he playing over quinn Ewrs last year? That's my question.

728
00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 3: So I think you get two answers. Okay, he is

729
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 3: this generational great talent, lives up the expectations. To me,

730
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 3: that's an indictment of Sarkeshan. You could have won the

731
00:32:56,800 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 3: title then with Manning if he was an upgrade over

732
00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 3: yours last year, or the reality is he's not a

733
00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,960
Speaker 3: generational talent and that's why he couldn't, you know, start

734
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:08,800
Speaker 3: over yours last year. So I'm more in the ladder

735
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 3: of that. I think he's gonna be a good quarterback.

736
00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 3: I just don't know if he's going to be live

737
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 3: up and be able to live up to the hype

738
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 3: not this.

739
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 2: Was a better season Drew Aller or or arch Manning.

740
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 3: That's a good question. I'm not an alor guy.

741
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 2: Who do you like it? Quarterback? Then?

742
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 3: I like couple Club Nick. Yeah. I don't like a

743
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:30,680
Speaker 3: lot of the quarterbacks.

744
00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 2: Carson.

745
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 3: I don't like Carson Beck. I mean, we'll see right away.

746
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 3: I don't know if he's one hundred percent out the eye.

747
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 3: I don't. Maybe the kid at Arizona State Lovett, Yeah,

748
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 3: I like him, he can run around. I'm looking for

749
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 3: guys that are like undervalued, that have some upside that

750
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 3: aren't being properly priced. Levitt's one. I think Carson Beck's

751
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 3: replacement stockedon. I know he didn't look good against the

752
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 3: nore Dam in the playoffs, but I think he might

753
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 3: be under the radar a little bit. But no, I

754
00:33:58,000 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 3: don't like the top of the board. I think allers

755
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 3: me have a bust at the pros.

756
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,280
Speaker 2: Wow bust, total bust.

757
00:34:04,600 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 3: Well, that being said, going back to your question, I'm

758
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 3: gonna take it as in, you know who has the

759
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 3: most success as a team. I lean towards Penn State.

760
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 3: There's just few question marks in Texas and the schedule

761
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:14,840
Speaker 3: is easier.

762
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:19,520
Speaker 2: What's your concern level with James Franklin screwing something up

763
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 2: in a big spot, Whether it's the regular season or playoff.

764
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 3: So very high, so right, I mean, power rating is

765
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 3: just you know, I'm looking at talent, experience level, what

766
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 3: you have last year? What'd you bring in boom Bank

767
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 3: power rating. Penn State's number one of my power ranks.

768
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,560
Speaker 3: Not probably the weakest number one preseason number one team

769
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,919
Speaker 3: I've had in ten plus years. But I and they're

770
00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 3: not priced in the futures market. At least early. They

771
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:45,279
Speaker 3: weren't there as high as sixteen to one and win

772
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 3: the national championship. I did not make that bet. My

773
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 3: power rings screamed to make that bet. Make that bet.

774
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,160
Speaker 3: They're the number one team and they're like six had

775
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 3: the you know, the sixth odds as far as the futures.

776
00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:57,759
Speaker 3: I didn't make it because why Franklin can't not win

777
00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,840
Speaker 3: the big game? I know a lot of coaches can't,

778
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:01,520
Speaker 3: you know, can't win the big game, can't win the

779
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,879
Speaker 3: big game until they do. You know, Kirby's one of them.

780
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 3: I mean Tom Osborn back in the day was one

781
00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,640
Speaker 3: of them. Held Jim Harbaugh recently was one of them.

782
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 3: I guess you could say Ryan Day a little bit.

783
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,440
Speaker 3: But the problem is we have a bigger sample size

784
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,000
Speaker 3: of James Franklin with big games, and he's got like

785
00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:20,239
Speaker 3: one out of like twenty, So I just do you

786
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 3: trust him to win three or four in a row?

787
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 3: I don't.

788
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,879
Speaker 2: So who do you trust them this year?

789
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 3: Because you said you only bet two teams the title?

790
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 3: But Alabama Notre Dame, even though they're not in the

791
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 3: top three of my power ratings. I just think one

792
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 3: of the two teams is going to have their quarterback

793
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 3: be a hit. Notre Dame er Alabama. If it's a hit,

794
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 3: I think they have as good as a roster as anybody,

795
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 3: and that's my pick to win the title, either one

796
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 3: of those two.

797
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 2: Any is there is there a market for to make

798
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 2: the playoff? Yes, no, like a Texas Tech or like

799
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 2: an Illinois or any long shots to your power ratings

800
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 2: have higher than market.

801
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 3: Ah. The one that I bet that, I mean this

802
00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,440
Speaker 3: is a group of five. Boise State's a runaway favorite.

803
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 3: In the group of five. I bet them close to

804
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 3: three to one. But I'm not big like I I'm

805
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,560
Speaker 3: not that guy that you know has Indiana. People had

806
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 3: them to make the playoff at like one hundred to

807
00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,879
Speaker 3: one last year. I don't have that. I'm sure there's

808
00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:15,719
Speaker 3: gonna be a team that comes out of nowhere. I

809
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 3: just right now, I don't see it.

810
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 2: M okay, all right, Brad Powers. He's got a lot

811
00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:20,440
Speaker 2: of bets.

812
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 3: Are you?

813
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:21,479
Speaker 1: You would?

814
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 2: You can find him on you still doing that with

815
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 2: Furman Todd Furman College Football?

816
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: Oh?

817
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 3: They can't came to an end after ten plus years?

818
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 2: What happened him and the other guy had?

819
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,760
Speaker 3: They decided to close up shop as far as that podcast,

820
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,840
Speaker 3: and they're not doing it anymore. Wow?

821
00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 2: Oh, where are you going to be?

822
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 3: All all all full? You follow me on Twitter acts

823
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 3: or whatever your kids are calling it these days, Brad

824
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,319
Speaker 3: Power seven, I'll do I'll do a few shows here

825
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,479
Speaker 3: there by the way, are you any are you?

826
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've asked you about betting politics before.

827
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 2: I might have asked you that before the election.

828
00:36:56,120 --> 00:37:00,759
Speaker 3: I don't even remember. Are you into that stuff at all?

829
00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 3: Or not?

830
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 2: Really?

831
00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 3: I am? I bet it? Uh, it's you asked me

832
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,000
Speaker 3: last year. But I think no, it's fine. I I

833
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:10,919
Speaker 3: just think it needs to be that is the Big

834
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,319
Speaker 3: White Whale as soon as that gets legalized. I mean,

835
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 3: there could be so much that you open Pandora's box.

836
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 3: But I mean if you want to bring in tax money. Uh,

837
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 3: that is the market. Billions upon billions of dollars people bet,

838
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:29,399
Speaker 3: and obviously a ton emotionally. I just I really hope

839
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 3: that at least, at the very least the presidential election

840
00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 3: gets legalized. Now obviously you can still bet in far

841
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 3: away places and I have, but I I just that's

842
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:41,480
Speaker 3: I wish it would could be here because that that's

843
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,080
Speaker 3: the one that could be. We could just w with

844
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 3: dog days of Summer, you can talk about that.

845
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, So do you have Gavin Newsom jd Vance?

846
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 3: What are you a sleeper? Oh? Wow, I'm just kidding.

847
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,279
Speaker 2: Well, let me for real, though, I do have to ask.

848
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,359
Speaker 2: I forgot that I saw this story that like tourism

849
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:02,359
Speaker 2: is so down in Vegas that the hotels are hurting financially,

850
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 2: like hotel vacancies way way up a You're you're seeing

851
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 2: this firsthand. What do you think is going on? Is

852
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,919
Speaker 2: it that so many states haven't legal now that there's

853
00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 2: not this push to go to Vegas. Let's go to

854
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,840
Speaker 2: Vegas for the weekend. We could just go to you know,

855
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 2: Mohigan Sun or whatever it is.

856
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,840
Speaker 3: Yep, that's There's there's two things. There's a lot of narratives.

857
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 3: There's political narratives of course in any topic, but it's

858
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:27,120
Speaker 3: just two things. Number one, gambling and you know, whether

859
00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:29,279
Speaker 3: it's going to a casino or you know, particularly to

860
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 3: what we talk about sports betting just more widely available

861
00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 3: across the country. Sports better. I don't need to go

862
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 3: to Vegas to gamble. So that there's that. And then

863
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 3: the other thing is I think the number one reason

864
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,319
Speaker 3: actually is Vegas isn't cheap anymore. Vegas for a long

865
00:38:41,360 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 3: time was cheap cost of living to go there. That

866
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,400
Speaker 3: they incentivize that airfare, the hotel fee, and then obviously

867
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,760
Speaker 3: they get you playing the tables and you know, pulling

868
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,000
Speaker 3: the pull on the lever. But you don't get those

869
00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:56,440
Speaker 3: deals anymore, whether it's parking or cops and drink comps,

870
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,880
Speaker 3: all that's gone by the wayside, and a lot of

871
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,640
Speaker 3: it's gone by the wayside, and last five years post COVID.

872
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,960
Speaker 3: So that that's reasons why Vegas is hurting a little bit. Hey,

873
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 3: I mean, I I just don't talk it, I walk it.

874
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,720
Speaker 3: I left. I don't live in Vegas anymore. After a decade.

875
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 2: Wow, So it's that bad there? Huh?

876
00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean again, I don't want to get political.

877
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 3: And maybe it's your it's somebody's thing, or maybe it's not.

878
00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 3: It's becoming more and more rapidly like California. That's just

879
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 3: not I mean, that could be a good thing, it

880
00:39:23,160 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 3: could be a bad thing. It's just not a meat thing.

881
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:26,239
Speaker 3: So it just wasn't for me.

882
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 2: I did not even know Vegas was getting so very liberal.

883
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 2: Or are you talking drugs and homeless.

884
00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:36,680
Speaker 3: A lot of drug usage. It's it's bad even in

885
00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:38,560
Speaker 3: some of the better neighborhoods. It's just they don't have

886
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 3: a handle on it yet. I mean, it's just you

887
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 3: see it every day on the street. So so you

888
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 3: you bolted, huh, I bolted. I'm Ohio. Believe No, you're

889
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 3: living in Ohio. Yeah, I love Ohio.

890
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,480
Speaker 2: Oh that's right, you're from Ohio.

891
00:39:53,640 --> 00:39:55,759
Speaker 3: I'm from Ohio. Now I'm not in like, we're just

892
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 3: living in the country. It's quiet and keep in mind,

893
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,279
Speaker 3: I can beat and what people don't realize. I know,

894
00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 3: they don't take a huge bet like walking up the

895
00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:05,880
Speaker 3: window at one of the casinos. But the two most

896
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 3: popular sports books in the country, DraftKings and FanDuel not

897
00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,719
Speaker 3: available in Nevada. Still not available in Nevada. Yeah, I've

898
00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:14,439
Speaker 3: never been able to like look up on my phone

899
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 3: and make a legal bet at those sportsbooks. Now I can. Interesting.

900
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 2: All right, well, Brad Power, I like that insight. That's different.

901
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 2: I don't think I did not know it was that

902
00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 2: bad in Uh.

903
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're gonna it's gonna get worse and worse too.

904
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 3: I'm just being just being ast I call like I said,

905
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 3: but you are seeing articles A lot of people are saying, Hey,

906
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 3: maybe you weren't so negative about it. Yeah, I mean,

907
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 3: if you open up your eyes, it's it's not great. Damn.

908
00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, it's funny you say you don't have to

909
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 2: go to Vegas to bet. I have to go to

910
