1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: All right, and welcome into the Betting Pros College Football Show.

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,039
Speaker 1: Championship games have been played, the bracket and bowl games

3
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: are set, which means there's only one thing left to do.

4
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: Make some wagers. Today we take a first look at

5
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: the early lines for the four first round college football

6
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: playoff games. We'll also make our picks for the Army

7
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 1: Navy game and the early bowl games as well. I'm

8
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,440
Speaker 1: your host, Seth Wilcock, coming off my best weekend of

9
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: college football betting since Week one of the season. Apparently

10
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: I need to be thrown down more on Mac and

11
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: Sun Belt games, is what I learned here this past weekend.

12
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: I'm rocking and rolling with the best cast in the business,

13
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:42,160
Speaker 1: including the heel of this particular program, really Rell, Terrell

14
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: Furman Junior. Just two weeks to Christmas, Terrell, are you

15
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: feeling those holiday vibes?

16
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'm definitely filling holiday viyes. After the last

17
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 2: Friday that we had swept the board on a Friday,

18
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 2: it was a great, great way to start the college

19
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: football weekend. Really, I count championship weekend as kind of bowlseason.

20
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 2: It just feels it doesn't feel like regular season games

21
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 2: to me, so I love when we get to this

22
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 2: time of year. We got off high. Hey teetered and

23
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 2: tittered a little bit over there. But nonetheless, unfortunately for

24
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 2: my two co hosts, well really everybody on the staff,

25
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,479
Speaker 2: all of our teams didn't get it done, as Rock

26
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 2: Obeck just got embarrassed, absolutely embarrassed by Cam Scattipo and

27
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 2: that Arizona State squad. Very very sad, but nonetheless, my

28
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 2: guy Rock Obec coming back to Iowall State next year.

29
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 2: Let's go Cyclones.

30
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: Let's go glad to hear you picked up a new

31
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 1: fan base over this season, Terrell. We're also joined by

32
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: a guy who Santa visit him early this season, giving

33
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: Texas a delightful first round matchup against Clemson. Boggs, how

34
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,399
Speaker 1: are you today and have you come to terms yet?

35
00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 1: The Quinn viewers really might be the grinch that steals

36
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: your Christmas this year.

37
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I when you can't punch the ball

38
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 3: in and you miss field goals, I mean they should

39
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 3: they should have beat Georgia, but you know the mistakes,

40
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 3: mistakes cost you a bye week rest and extra time

41
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 3: to prep and all that.

42
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: It really cost you. Look, I think this is in

43
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 2: a great position to make the final game.

44
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 3: They they are and and I will accept that. I

45
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 3: think Penn State also kind of you know, put themselves

46
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 3: in a better.

47
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 2: Make have the greatest chances.

48
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so you know I am. I'm very excited.

49
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 3: But it's one of those weekends. Like the previous weekend,

50
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 3: my bets were bad in Texas won. Happy this week

51
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 3: my bets were great and Texas lost and I was sad.

52
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 3: It wasn't until I was going in to put in

53
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 3: my Thursday night bets. Uh, you know last night when

54
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 3: I was prepping for that show that I saw, Hey

55
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,920
Speaker 3: last week you were pretty good. I had the big

56
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 3: green circle around around my name, which was nice to see. So, uh,

57
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 3: we've got a couple of bowl games coming up here.

58
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,920
Speaker 3: We're gonna you know, talk about uh, the big playoff

59
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 3: games as well. But yeah, I'm excited for Bowl season. Man,

60
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 3: it's here. We're trying to keep track of everyone who's

61
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 3: opting out and in the transfer portal, and in the

62
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:09,360
Speaker 3: transfer portal that but might still stay and play. There's

63
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 3: so many things to go into it. It makes picking

64
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,360
Speaker 3: some of these games a little more difficult. But we'll

65
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 3: give you we'll give you the blow by blow here

66
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 3: and it's gonna be fun. Another good week and the

67
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 3: big tournament starts for the first time. Boys, I am

68
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 3: so excited for it. It's gonna be a lot of fun.

69
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: I agree with you, gentlemen. Thanks to everyone who watches

70
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: and listens every single episode as a whole, we're swinging

71
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: a hot back last week as the conference title games

72
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 1: unfolded three and zero on Friday. As Terrell alluded to, also,

73
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: the games on Saturday, we were split on but I

74
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: felt like we were on the totals for the right

75
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: side of them. I know, Bogs, you were on the

76
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 1: under in Georgia, Texas. You're also on the over for

77
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: Penn State Oregon as well. So great week for us.

78
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 1: But what do you always say about the next week, Bogs?

79
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 3: This is the most important week because this is the

80
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 3: week we're playing.

81
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: Right now exactly. So if you're watching here on YouTube,

82
00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 1: please let us know down in the comments below, do

83
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: you think the college football playoff bracket and the committee

84
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: got it right? Overall, we want to hear from you.

85
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: I know there's been a lot of upset fan bases

86
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: Alabama fans CC yeah, CC yeah. And then we also

87
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: had Miami fans still a little bit upset, even though

88
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 1: they kind of knew that their fate was sealed the

89
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: week before. But overall, I'm very happy with what we got.

90
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,159
Speaker 1: But I want to hear from the Betting Pros community.

105
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: line of the first round playoff games, starting with the

106
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,799
Speaker 1: Battle of the Hoosier State that'll take place on Friday,

107
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: December twentieth at eight pm Eastern time in South Bend.

108
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: The seventh seeded Notre Dame Fighting Irish. They are seven

109
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 1: and a half point favorites against the ninth ranked Indiana

110
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: Hoosiers Marcus Freeman's men. They are nine two to one

111
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,359
Speaker 1: ats this season. You have been printing money if you

112
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: have been betting the Fighting Irish. There are eleven and

113
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 1: one straight up with of course, they're only lost coming

114
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: in that upset against Northern Illinois. Their marquee wins include

115
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: Texas A and M Georgia Tech Louisville Army if you

116
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 1: want to throw USC in that mix as well. Funny enough, though,

117
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: Notre Dame's kind of looking like an academy team at

118
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: times this season. One hundred first in passing offense, tenth

119
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 1: in rushing, led by dole threat quarterback Riley Leonard. They're

120
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: also ninth in total defense as it stands now. For

121
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: the Irish, star running back Jeremiah Love is expected to

122
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: play after injuring his knee against USC. They should get

123
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: also defensive tackle Howard cross Back as well. The only

124
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 1: major concern for them injury wise is their breakout freshman

125
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: linebacker kVA Is remaining out. He's been out since they

126
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 1: faced Army. Expected to be out for this one as well.

127
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: I you, on the other hand, led by Kirk Signetti

128
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: nine to three ats eleven to one straight up. Their

129
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: only loss comes to Ohio State. They do have somewhat

130
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: impressive wins against Michigan, Nebraska, Washington. Curtis Rourke has led

131
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: this team the twenty ninth passing offense in the country,

132
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,120
Speaker 1: but they are very much run to pass driven offense

133
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,880
Speaker 1: that is led by Justice Ellison, their RB one in

134
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: the backfield. They also do have the number one rushing

135
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: defense and tenth best passing defense in the nation. The

136
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 1: Hoosiers could be out their starting cornerback Jeremiah Johnson, who

137
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 1: is questionable. Boggs, where do you see this line going

138
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 1: and do you have an early lean at all?

139
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think that most people that I've seen picking

140
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 3: this game this week handicap burst experts, how I want

141
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 3: to call them, they're on the Notre Dame side. I'm

142
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 3: not so sure. I know that Ohio State rolled Indiana,

143
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,480
Speaker 3: and I think there's questions about whether Indiana deserves to

144
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 3: be in this spot or not. Right, but I like

145
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,679
Speaker 3: the extra prep time here. I don't feel like Notre

146
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,840
Speaker 3: Dame is just a sure thing as most people do.

147
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 3: They're not going to pass like Ohio State did. And

148
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 3: Ohio State didn't pass for a ton of yards on Indiana.

149
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 3: It was two hundred and one, but Will Howard was

150
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 3: twenty two of twenty six. He did throw that early pick.

151
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 3: But can they run on Indiana like they have on

152
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: anyone else. I think it's a big question for Notre Dame.

153
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 3: I'm not sure Ohio State didn't run with great success

154
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 3: against Indiana. Charlotte is the only team this season to

155
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 3: put up over one hundred and fifty rushing yards on Indiana.

156
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 3: And to be clear, I still think Notre Dame is

157
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 3: going to win this game. I think they'll be able

158
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 3: to run. I just don't know if it's going to

159
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 3: be at such a highly successful clip. We did see

160
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 3: them kind of have a week game against USC. We

161
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 3: saw Jordania a pass for three hundred and sixty yards

162
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 3: against them. There's just not a strong passing offense here.

163
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 3: They Notre Dame does get Jeremiah Love back for this game,

164
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 3: and as you mentioned, how Across the big defensive tackle

165
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 3: as well. I just if this game is going to

166
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 3: stay at more than a touchdown seven and a half.

167
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 3: I think I'm taking Indiana. That's my early lean here.

168
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 3: I know that Notre Dame has been the better team.

169
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 3: They're a strong team, and there are questions about Indiana.

170
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 3: I think they deserve to be here. I think they

171
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 3: keep this game a little bit tighter. So if it's

172
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 3: over a touchdown, I'm gonna be taking the Hoosiers.

173
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 1: Do you think it stays their bogs? Do you think

174
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 1: it's staying at seven and a half?

175
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 3: I do because most of the money and tickets are

176
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,439
Speaker 3: on Indiana. They're a fun story, so the public wants

177
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 3: to bet them. A lot of people don't like Notre

178
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 3: Dame as well, not a surprise, Yeah that Notre Dame

179
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 3: gets hated on a little bit here. But yeah, I

180
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 3: think I like the Hoosiers plus the points. If it's

181
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 3: going to be over a touchdown, What.

182
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: About you, Dreelle? How do you see this one going

183
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: about ten days out from now?

184
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 2: Well, I'm going ahead and locking it in in the

185
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 2: Betting Pros app right now. You can go give me

186
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 2: a file of bettingpros dot com slash Terrell. Yeah, I'm

187
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,839
Speaker 2: taking Indiana. I'm taking Indiana on the money line. This

188
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 2: is a hammer smashed spot of I love Indiana to

189
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 2: get this done. I truly do believe we're gonna get

190
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 2: one or two dogs that are gonna surprise us outright.

191
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe one, but we could be surprised by two.

192
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 2: I really do think that Indiana can be that one though.

193
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 2: One this is these schools are four hours apart. They're

194
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 2: four hours apart. This is the little brother of Notre

195
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,959
Speaker 2: Dame has been the football powerhouse, all of that, and

196
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 2: Kirk Signetti gets to fuel his team with all of that.

197
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 2: We've seen Kurk Signetti over there in the group of

198
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 2: five be able to get his team up for these

199
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 2: Power five games and really really be able to show

200
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 2: up and coach up a really good team he had

201
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: time to prepare. They're not worried about the travel spot.

202
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 2: This is the best travel spot of all the playoff

203
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 2: actually because they're staying in state. So I think that

204
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 2: also counts for something. I think Indiana's offense is enough

205
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 2: where they're not gonna Notre Dames defense isn't gonna make

206
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 2: this a one sided game. And if you're telling me

207
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 2: that you're gonna give that Indiana offense opportunities the Ohio

208
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 2: State game, I feel like that gave them a wake

209
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 2: up call of hey, these special team issues, all these

210
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,680
Speaker 2: little things that can go and make a game really

211
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 2: really go against us. We got to cut those out

212
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 2: and at least keep this one close. I think this

213
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 2: is one hundred percent within a one score game, but

214
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 2: I think Indiana's actually gonna come out with the outright win.

215
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 2: And this is the game that Marcus Freeman just kind

216
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 2: of tote set the end and they don't look as

217
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: good and they're not as prepared as Indiana. I just

218
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 2: think prepared preparation is really really big. And the college

219
00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 2: football playoff with that week off, and I think Kurt

220
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 2: Signetti is going to be really really good with this preparation.

221
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: Okay, my initial lean is to the under a fifty

222
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 1: and a half. Indiana's best element on offense is their

223
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,880
Speaker 1: passing game. Notre Dame, despite losing Ben Morrison, still their

224
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,400
Speaker 1: strength is their passing defense as well. Indiana also is

225
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: the best rushing defense, and that is really what is

226
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 1: leading Notre Dames teams. They're running attack with love and Leonard.

227
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: I don't think they've faced a challenge like this, So

228
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: any love for the under from either of you guys

229
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 1: or the total at all twenty seven degrees at game

230
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,440
Speaker 1: time as well, so it's gonna be chilly up there.

231
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 3: I think the under is a safer play for sure,

232
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:19,319
Speaker 3: and mainly because we saw Indiana get dismantled by Ohio

233
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,439
Speaker 3: State's defensive line. So if Notre Dame has that type

234
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 3: of a game where they're just breaking down this Indiana

235
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 3: o line, this one's gonna be wrapped up real quick.

236
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 3: But I think if Indiana sticks in this game, I

237
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 3: think they're gonna have a hard time stopping the run

238
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 3: game from Notre Dame. And I think there are points

239
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 3: to be scored. So if it goes the way we

240
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 3: think it does, Terrell and I right now, I think

241
00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 3: you're over, the over is probably in play. But if

242
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 3: it doesn't go that way, which it very well could,

243
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 3: I mean what the books think. Yeah, the books do

244
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 3: think it is gonna go in Notre Dame's favor, then

245
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 3: I like the under.

246
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 2: I think Notre Dame team total under is probably the

247
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 2: best bet for me there in this one. I just

248
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 2: I think that this Indiana passing attack can really really

249
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 2: light you up at multiple points in the season. And

250
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: they talk about the difficulty and schedule, well, I mean

251
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 2: Notre Dame really didn't have that difficult of a schedule either,

252
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 2: So I think that there could be a possibility of

253
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,120
Speaker 2: Indiana being able to run and score up here. But

254
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 2: I just think that Indiana defense and the defensive line

255
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 2: and all of that, they're really, really really gonna get

256
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,319
Speaker 2: after that Notre Dame offense, and I don't think Notre

257
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:23,560
Speaker 2: Dame's gonna be able to score much.

258
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Well we'll revisit that a week from now.

259
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 1: As it stands, it looks like we're leaning towards the Hoosiers.

260
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: I like the under as well. On Saturday, December twenty first,

261
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 1: at noon, the sixth seed Penn State and nine Lions

262
00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,080
Speaker 1: are eight and a half point favorites against the eleven

263
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: seeded SMU Mustangs in Happy Valley. SMU coming off that heartbreaking,

264
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: just heartbreaking ACC Championship loss to Clemson. They are now

265
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 1: eight and five ats eleven and two overall. Their only

266
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 1: other loss was to BYU all the way back in

267
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 1: Week two. Rhett Lashly's team is currently twenty eighth in

268
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: total defense, but they're run defense much better than their

269
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: passing defense. Quarterback Kevin Jennings he has led this team

270
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: their twentieth total offensive ranking as well. No new injuries

271
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 1: to report for SMU Penn State. They're coming off a

272
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,839
Speaker 1: loss in their title game to Oregon. They dropped to

273
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 1: eleven and two straight up six and seven ats. They

274
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: of course, also lost to Ohio State earlier this year,

275
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: and their best win has come against Illinois. Drew Aller.

276
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: He's had his moments at times this season, gentlemen. He

277
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: has led the Nitney Lions to the fifteenth ranked total

278
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: offense obviously, has great weapons in the backfield Tyler Warrant

279
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: tight end as well. They also have the sixth ranked

280
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: total defense. For the Nitney Lions, Penn State is hoping

281
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: to get back tackle Anthony and Donka. He's been dealing

282
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: with an injury for quite some time. Trell, have you

283
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 1: settled on a side yet and are you betting it now?

284
00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: Are you waiting for some line movement potentially?

285
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 2: No, I think I'm fine taking the side now. I

286
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: don't really I don't really feel the best about this one,

287
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 2: just because SMU coming up north into Penn State, this

288
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 2: is one of the worst travels spots, So we go

289
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 2: from one of the best travel spots to one of

290
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,079
Speaker 2: the worst travel spots in SMU going up to Penn State.

291
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,160
Speaker 2: But I just think that they are so hungry and

292
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,359
Speaker 2: they they are going to give us a game regardless.

293
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 2: Do they go out here and get this out right win?

294
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,560
Speaker 2: I don't know, and I don't think so. This is

295
00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 2: probably the dog that I'm not sprinkling the money line on.

296
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 2: But if you're telling me that, I have to trust

297
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 2: Drew to keep the offense going enough to just continuously

298
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 2: lay on points, lay on points, lay on points. We

299
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 2: saw what Clemson did. Clemson got out early in SMU,

300
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,600
Speaker 2: not giving up, not giving up, not giving up, just pesky, pesky, pesky.

301
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 2: And I can see Jennings being able to do that

302
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 2: on the offensive side of ball and be able to

303
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 2: move the ball a little bit on Penn State. So

304
00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 2: right now, I like SMU plus the points. I'm gonna

305
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 2: wait see how I feel about this one. I'm not

306
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 2: as confident as this one is Indiana, but I'm on

307
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 2: the side of SMU on points right now.

308
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 1: Bogs, do you have an initial lean and can you

309
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: tell us any information about where the money's coming in on?

310
00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, the money was acting weird yesterday, so I honestly

311
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,120
Speaker 3: can't Okay, I'll tell you which way it's going, but

312
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 3: I could tell tell you in this game. My big

313
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 3: question in this is can the SMUO line hold up

314
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 3: against this Penn State pass rush. If they can't, Penn

315
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 3: State is going to wrap this up real quick. I

316
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 3: think this game is over in the first half type

317
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 3: of a game if they cannot keep Abdul Carter and

318
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 3: Sutton and everyone off of Jennings. Here, we've seen Jennings

319
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,680
Speaker 3: turn the ball over. He did early against Clemson, obviously

320
00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 3: against Duke, and that crazy minus six turnover margin game

321
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 3: that they still somehow won with a miracle kept them

322
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 3: in the playoff. By the way, they didn't know it then,

323
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 3: but that win kept them in the playoff. But Penn

324
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 3: State should be able to score. I don't question that

325
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 3: at all. Clemson, Pitt Boston College, Duke, Louisville TCU all

326
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 3: put up twenty five plus points against SMU, so I

327
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 3: think Penn State is better on offense than most of

328
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 3: those teams. They had problems against Ohio State, they had

329
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 3: problems against Illinois, but I mean they just gashed Oregon

330
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 3: for five hundred and eighteen yards. So I don't think

331
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 3: I have any issue with this Penn State offense at all,

332
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 3: I think I want to wait. I want to see

333
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 3: if we can get this number a little bit lower.

334
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 3: VP likes this a closer of Penn State minus seven

335
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 3: and a half instead of eight and a half. Is

336
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 3: it still at eight and a half? Is that what

337
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 3: you said?

338
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 2: Ye, some nines out there's some knights out there.

339
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 3: Well, I wanted to come down. I wanted to come

340
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:22,640
Speaker 3: the other way, and I want to take Penn State.

341
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 3: But eight and a half. I think I'm okay taking

342
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 3: Penn State. I do think they win this. I do

343
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 3: think they win this going away a little bit. Would

344
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 3: a game against Alabama been a little better, Maybe maybe

345
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 3: it would have been better, but they didn't deserve.

346
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 2: They didn't deserve. It might not have been as good.

347
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,239
Speaker 2: It might not be Oklahoma.

348
00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 3: And I like how they got fact checked on their posts.

349
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 3: To their ad was like, we're gonna have to relook

350
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 3: at our uh you know, non conference schedule, and then

351
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 3: you know it's like Alabama lost all three of their

352
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,640
Speaker 3: games in conference. Don't believe anything they're saying, so uh,

353
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 3: you know, uh, they lost. S MU won, SMU deserves

354
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:02,240
Speaker 3: to be here. But I do think Penn State is

355
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,280
Speaker 3: better team, and I think Penn I think this one

356
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 3: is one where they are pesky. To two Trell's credit here,

357
00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 3: they are very pesky, and they come back and they

358
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 3: don't give up. That's how you win when you lose

359
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 3: a turnover marchin by six. That's how you stay in

360
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 3: this game when you get down so quick to Clemson. Right.

361
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 3: So I don't think at any point that this game

362
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,919
Speaker 3: is over, but I do think there's a chance for

363
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 3: Penn State to look fairly dominant in this one. So

364
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 3: I will, you know, lay the points here, but not

365
00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 3: with a ton of confidence. And I'm hoping it comes

366
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 3: back down before we make our official picks next week.

367
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,919
Speaker 2: Oh, Western Kentucky, South Florida, Wisconsin, and Mercer. That was

368
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 2: the non conference schedule. I can only imagine how much

369
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 2: worse that non conference schedule could get Western Kentucky, South Florida,

370
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:48,879
Speaker 2: Wisconsin and Mercer.

371
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 3: Mercer is going to become a rival. We're gonna is

372
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 3: gonna be seeing them every year.

373
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 2: They're about to go down to the FCS ranks and

374
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 2: grab some FCS teams and say yeah, some more SCS

375
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 2: teams and say yeah, we're gonna play against four FCS

376
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 2: teams this year, Dickens.

383
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,600
Speaker 1: fifth seeded Burnt Orange opened as eleven point favorites over

384
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: the twelve seed Clemson Tigers. Clemson, they drilled a fifty

385
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 1: six yard game winning field goal to win the ACC

386
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: Championship and to punch their ticket into the playoffs and

387
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 1: to get to six and seven ats Clemson. They have

388
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,879
Speaker 1: three losses this season. They've lost to Georgia, Louisville, South Carolina.

389
00:18:45,160 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 1: The defense has been suspect. We've talked about that all year,

390
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: but k club Nick and Phil Maffa have led this

391
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,200
Speaker 1: team to the twelfth total offense. Wide receiver Tyler Brown

392
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:53,919
Speaker 1: no doubt about it.

393
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 3: Back on the.

394
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 1: Injury report already for Dabo Sweeney as is RB two

395
00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,880
Speaker 1: Jay Haynes. Texas still waiting on the return of left

396
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: tackle Calvin Banks, and they have now dropped to eleven

397
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: and two straight up seven to six ATS after a

398
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 1: second loss to Georgia in the SEC Championship game. Longhorns

399
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,840
Speaker 1: quarterback Quinn Viewers hasn't been a difference maker as of late.

400
00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: Despite the play calling of Sark. This team has fallen

401
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: to eighteenth in total offense twenty fifth in scoring offense,

402
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 1: but the defense has stepped up in a major way,

403
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: ranking first against the pass fifteenth against the run. This

404
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,400
Speaker 1: is another game. I'm starting to like the under. Here

405
00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 1: boys fifty two points. Texas eight three to two to

406
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 1: the under this season, and they've scored an average twenty

407
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 1: two point five points over the past month four and

408
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: zho to the under. Clemson has scored a total of

409
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:43,959
Speaker 1: seventeen points in their two games against SEC scoals this season. Boggs,

410
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: Do you like the total early with me? Are you

411
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 1: more interested in a side?

412
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 3: No? I like the under as well. I think that

413
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,959
Speaker 3: it's a factor of two things, and they're both on

414
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 3: Texas side. Texas defense is the best in the country.

415
00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 3: I don't think that's really debatable anymore. And their offense

416
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 3: cannot punch the ball in and they're missing field goals.

417
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 3: So with a weak offense and one of the best

418
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 3: defenses in the country. I think it's hard to pick

419
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 3: an over in a game like this. Clemson had that

420
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 3: great win over SMU. They only put up three hundred

421
00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 3: and twenty six yards, though, and they gave up a

422
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 3: bunch of yards in that comeback for SMU. They had

423
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,959
Speaker 3: four hundred nineteen against South Carolina, but they wire run

424
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 3: over for four hundred and thirty one in that game.

425
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,040
Speaker 3: Gave up four hundred and fifty eight to SMU last week.

426
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 3: I just think the crazy strong defense of Texas is

427
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,320
Speaker 3: going to be able to limit Klubnik. Now, Klubnik is

428
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 3: a Austin native. He's going back to Austin. It's a

429
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 3: homecoming for him. It's a good storyline that you're gonna

430
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 3: hear about talked about in this game a ton in

431
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,959
Speaker 3: the pregame and inside of it.

432
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:46,200
Speaker 1: Here.

433
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 3: Quinn Ewers and Klubnik played in a state title game

434
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 3: a couple.

435
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: Of years ago as well.

436
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you know this is it's a fun rivalry game.

437
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 3: There's a lot of fun stories and narratives here. But

438
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,120
Speaker 3: I do think this game boils down to what happens

439
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 3: with Texas on offense. Are they punching the ball in

440
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 3: after being able to move it, because they've moved it

441
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,560
Speaker 3: on everybody. They just have not scored. They didn't score

442
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 3: well Na and M. They obviously didn't score well enough

443
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,720
Speaker 3: and missed some field goals against Georgia to send that

444
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 3: game into overtime. So this is about punching the ball

445
00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 3: in for Texas. They will be able to move the

446
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 3: ball everybody has. On Clemson, I don't know if they're

447
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 3: going to be able to slow down Klubnik. I do

448
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,040
Speaker 3: think they will be because I think this is the

449
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 3: best defense in the country, but I think me the

450
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 3: under is the safest play. I still like belong Horns here.

451
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 3: I've been a doubter on Clemson this whole year. I

452
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 3: think every time they've been in a huge game outside

453
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 3: of this one against SMU, they have not really been good.

454
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,479
Speaker 3: And they almost let SMU come back in this one

455
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 3: and bounce them out of the tournament. So I think

456
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:47,080
Speaker 3: this is a Texas win, but I can't say going

457
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 3: away it should be. But the way the offense has

458
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 3: been playing, you can't say that.

459
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: Terrell. We are early in the week prior to these

460
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: games being played, so I'm not going to ask you

461
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:59,199
Speaker 1: horns up, horns down. But is there a number you

462
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,360
Speaker 1: could maybe see that would make you want to get

463
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: invested in a side here, whether that's Texas or me.

464
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 1: We've already seen that number. With Clemson, you can get

465
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 1: them at plus twelve.

466
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I would absolutely love to take plus twelve

467
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,320
Speaker 2: with Clemson. You can't lay that matter of points with Texas.

468
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 2: And Boggs said it. He didn't want to say it,

469
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 2: but he said it. They can't punch the ball in.

470
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 2: You can't. I can't trust you to cover the line

471
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 2: if you can't put points on the board. So yeah,

472
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 2: I do agree with y'all underplay. I do think the

473
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 2: under is a very good play. But Dabbo's gonna keep

474
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 2: this team in the game, and Texas is gonna let him,

475
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: and I think it's gonna be on Klebnick's legs. Actually,

476
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 2: I think the fact that he can bring some duality

477
00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 2: and some spot nuity to the offense and kind of

478
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 2: make something shake with his legs when the play starts

479
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 2: breaking down, if he makes the right decision and he's

480
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 2: not throwing the ball into heavy traffic and he's hey,

481
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 2: all right, it's not there. Take off of my legs,

482
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 2: get a good gain, and we'll get back on the

483
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 2: next down. Then I think that they're gonna continue to

484
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 2: move the ball, move the ball, move the ball, which

485
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 2: is gonna kill clock, kill clock, kill clock. That's gonna

486
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,719
Speaker 2: help the under and that's also not gonna give Texas

487
00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,119
Speaker 2: a lot of opportunities to put the ball in the

488
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 2: end zone here. So I think that twelve is way

489
00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 2: too many points, And honestly, it's up the Texas if

490
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 2: they want to win this game or not. I think

491
00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 2: Texas absolutely has everything they need to just be able

492
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 2: to go out here and win this game. But I

493
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 2: mean we've seen it. They don't at like they want

494
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 2: to win the game sometimes and they're like, all right,

495
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,199
Speaker 2: we're gonna go to the Kansas City Chiefs approach. We're

496
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,480
Speaker 2: just gonna play this close, close, close, close close, all right.

497
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 2: I can't say plus twelve with you, though.

498
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 1: It's interesting because as the season has gone along, I

499
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: feel like Texas doesn't have a bunch of elite players.

500
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: They have like a bunch of really really good players, right,

501
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,560
Speaker 1: A bunch of depth that offensive line, definitely the strength there,

502
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 1: especially Banks, who will be probably a top ten pick

503
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 1: if you can get back this season. But do you

504
00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,639
Speaker 1: guys feel that too. Like last year at Michigan, we

505
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,719
Speaker 1: had you know, Will Johnson over there. We also had

506
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,199
Speaker 1: Graham on the front end, We had a Blake quorum,

507
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,359
Speaker 1: we had JJ McCarthy. I just feel like Texas is

508
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: missing a little bit of pizazz, if you would.

509
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 3: I mean, and I think that's what everybody feels like.

510
00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 3: And everyone knows the answer to this question. It's put

511
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 3: our chin, let him go spin. Yeah, that's the pizazz.

512
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, right right.

513
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 3: And but I do think that if you if you

514
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 3: make that move, you have to make it in game.

515
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 3: Quinn has to fail first. I think he's earned that.

516
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,239
Speaker 3: So I think Quinn has to go out here in

517
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 3: this game with a little bit of extra rest, sure

518
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 3: and fail in the first half for you to make

519
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 3: that move. Now, I think the preemptive move is, let's

520
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 3: design a bunch of plays for Arch, not just near

521
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 3: the goal line, and not just in fourth and short,

522
00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 3: third and short, Let's let's get him in in some series.

523
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 3: So I think you're gonna see that already. But it's

524
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,600
Speaker 3: gonna be one of those things where if Texas is

525
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 3: tied or losing going into halftime. Out of halftime, here

526
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 3: comes Arch and that's it.

527
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 2: It's gonna be a play. This, this is gonna be

528
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,119
Speaker 2: the play to spark Texas. They're gonna bring Arch in

529
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 2: a game every It's gonna be some third and short,

530
00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 2: fourth and short, something like that, and they're like, oh,

531
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,520
Speaker 2: Arch is running, Arch is running, and then he's gonna

532
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 2: throw the ball over the top for a touchdowns and

533
00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 2: that's gonna be the sport.

534
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 3: By the way, I bought an Arch scoring on Texas

535
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 3: and m Christmas ornament.

536
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 1: So there you go. There you go.

537
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,600
Speaker 2: Love it the fact that they were selling that.

538
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 3: First buyer right here.

539
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 1: There you go. The first round of the college football playoffs.

540
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: It will round out in Columbus, Ohio, where the eight

541
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,399
Speaker 1: seed Ohio State buck Guys. They are laying seven and

542
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 1: a half points against the ninth seeded Tennessee Volunteers. We

543
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,360
Speaker 1: last saw Ohio State lose to Michigan at the Horseshoe,

544
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: handing them their second loss of the season after already

545
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: losing to Oregon back in early October. They do, however,

546
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: have great wins against Penn State Indiana, and they sit

547
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: at five hundred and six and six ats this season.

548
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,920
Speaker 1: The offense has definitely underperformed given the talent both out

549
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 1: wide and in the backfield. But their defense, led by

550
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: the likes of Caleb Downs, Jack Sawyer ty Leek Williams,

551
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: is first in total defense, second against the past, seventh

552
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 1: against the run. Could that spell trouble against Tennessee? Here, Terrell,

553
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 1: they are seven and five ATS sixty fifth in passing offense,

554
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:00,120
Speaker 1: but ninth in rush.

555
00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 3: I don't know.

556
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 1: I think this could be trold for Tennessee. What do

557
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 1: you think, man?

558
00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:06,280
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean this is one of the games that

559
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 2: I'm just super duper confident off the rip. I'm taking

560
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 2: Ohio State, and I don't think anything's gonna change my

561
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 2: mind in the next week of me not taking Ohio State.

562
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 2: I mean, the fact that you can lose to Michigan,

563
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 2: not make your title game, get a bye, and then

564
00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 2: a home playoff game against an SEC team coming up north.

565
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,960
Speaker 2: And the SEC has been talking all of this all

566
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 2: of Hey, I guess we got to schedule a weeker

567
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 2: out of conference. Oh yeah, you about to see why

568
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 2: you need to schedule weeker out of conference because Ohio

569
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,960
Speaker 2: State's about to be mad. They're gonna be livid, and

570
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 2: Ryan Day understands he is coaching from his job every

571
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 2: single game from here on out. You gotta at least

572
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 2: make the national championship. There's no way Ryan Day keeps

573
00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 2: his job after the embarrassment to Michigan all these years

574
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,960
Speaker 2: and this was the year, this was the year to

575
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 2: handle Michigan and hand Michigan and l and you couldn't

576
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,439
Speaker 2: even do that. Still, like, I think that they are

577
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 2: fed up and they're looking for any reason. And when

578
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 2: they're looking for any reason, and you gotta do what

579
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,600
Speaker 2: you can. It's kind of like remember the Titans where

580
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 2: they said that they were going to fire the coach

581
00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 2: after an L and he was like, all right, we're

582
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 2: just gonna go win all the games, and they went

583
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:11,119
Speaker 2: and won all the games. Well, here we go. I

584
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 2: think that this is either the end of Ryan Day

585
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 2: or Ohio State just dogs. This Tennessee offense that is

586
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,920
Speaker 2: so up and down, and with the good special teams

587
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 2: that you've seen Ohio State in a lot of these games.

588
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,560
Speaker 2: With that special teams really really be able to get

589
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 2: block punts and touchdowns and all of that. I can't

590
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 2: see myself getting off in Ohio State at all.

591
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: This is also the only spread that I'm already thinking

592
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 1: about getting invested as well with Ohio State trail. So

593
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,400
Speaker 1: I like it because I feel like if Tennessee can't

594
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,680
Speaker 1: get Dylan Sampson going against this defense, they will struggle.

595
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 1: They had a close game against Oklahoma, the best rushing

596
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: defense they faced this season. They only put up seventeen

597
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: points against Georgia, the only other top forty rushing defense

598
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 1: they face. The projected high in temperature this day is

599
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 1: going to be thirty seven degrees, and Nico and Nigo's

600
00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 1: from Long Beach, California, I guess, so I think it's

601
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 1: gonna be cold, blistery up there, bogs, and I don't

602
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,080
Speaker 1: think Nico and this team can handle it. So I'm

603
00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,959
Speaker 1: also going Ohio State here early that I haven't bet

604
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: it yet, it's my lean. Do you have an early

605
00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,360
Speaker 1: lean here in any insight on maybe if there will

606
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: be movement here?

607
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 3: I do, but I'm not as confident as you guys are.

608
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,240
Speaker 3: I'm having a harder time with this one because I

609
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,119
Speaker 3: tell you what I do like specifically on Tennessee's side

610
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 3: on defense, is I like this mismatch of the Tennessee

611
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:34,000
Speaker 3: defensive line against the weakness of this team. The offensive

612
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,879
Speaker 3: line for Ohio State Donaman Jackson has had some tough

613
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 3: grade since filling in at left tackle. When you know,

614
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,720
Speaker 3: when Simmons went down, they moved him from left guard

615
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 3: to left tackle. He hasn't had the best transition there.

616
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 3: The whole offensive line had bad grades against Michigan. They

617
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 3: also weren't great against Indiana. I told you that offense

618
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 3: was okay. They were really good on those short passes Northwestern.

619
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,479
Speaker 3: They didn't have good grades the O line, and they

620
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 3: were just okay against Purdue. So I do think that

621
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:05,640
Speaker 3: that's a fairly sizable mismatch in Tennessee's favor. However, I

622
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 3: think the mismatch between Tennessee O line and the Ohio

623
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:12,640
Speaker 3: State D line, I think that's tougher for Tennessee. And

624
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 3: the fact that, as you guys mentioned, Nico is young,

625
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,960
Speaker 3: he's taken too many sacks, he's thrown picks, and what

626
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 3: Terrell said, I think a punt block, a kick return,

627
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 3: a kick block, you know, something like that in Ohio

628
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 3: State's favor is going to be the swinging point of

629
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 3: this game. So I'm on the Ohio State side, but

630
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 3: I don't think Tennessee goes away as quickly as y'all

631
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 3: are saying. I think Tennessee sticks around in this game

632
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 3: for a little bit. I think it's low scoring. I

633
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 3: kind of like the under in this one because of

634
00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:46,240
Speaker 3: the mismatch of both defensive lines first both offensive lines,

635
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 3: So I think this could be low scoring and scrappy.

636
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 3: But I think the difference in this game is the

637
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 3: playmakers that Ohio State has on the outside, Jeremiah Smith

638
00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 3: and Meccagbuka, the running backs. I just think there's too

639
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 3: much much offensive firepower for them to be held back

640
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 3: the entire game. So I think we see a couple

641
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 3: big plays from Ohio State make the difference here. As

642
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 3: long as you don't get a terrible offensive game plan

643
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 3: like you did against Michigan, I think Ohio State's safe bogs.

644
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 1: Do you think seven and a half at even money

645
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: currently over at Fandel as well is the best we're

646
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,200
Speaker 1: going to see this. I mean, both these programs have

647
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: huge fan bases, they're big brands. You know they're gonna

648
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,440
Speaker 1: have a lot of public money just on the fan

649
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 1: bases alone.

650
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, a lot of money on Tennessee right now. So

651
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 3: I can't see that coming back down towards Ohio state

652
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 3: side a little bit. I just don't think it should

653
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 3: move though. I think this line is very correct, so

654
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,800
Speaker 3: I don't think I see it moving too much. Like

655
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 3: we're right in line with this. We're a little bit

656
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 3: on the Tennessee side in terms of BP projections, so

657
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 3: if it comes back down, it'll probably be right on

658
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,080
Speaker 3: top of that. So not a ton of confidence with

659
00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 3: this game, not like you guys have for me.

660
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: Okay, while we have to weigh over a week for

661
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: the playoff games to be played, we do have some

662
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 1: live action this weekend, starting with the Army Navy game

663
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 1: going down at Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland on Saturday

664
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 1: at three pm Eastern time. The Black Knights are favored

665
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: by six and a half over the midship Men, and

666
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: it's kind of easy to understand why, right guys. I mean,

667
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:24,120
Speaker 1: Army just won the AAC Championship thirty five to fourteen.

668
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:27,720
Speaker 1: It was a route against Tulane. Everyone from their top

669
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: ranked rushing offense and their tenth ranked total defense should

670
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 1: be up for this game. Army is currently eight and

671
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,360
Speaker 1: three and one ATS and if they win, they'll set

672
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,479
Speaker 1: a skull record for a twelve wins Navy should get

673
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 1: quarterback Blake Horvath back after dealing with some rib injuries earlier.

674
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 1: This month, They've been a respectable eight and three straight

675
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 1: up seven to four ats. They too have a top

676
00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: ten rushing offense, but their defense ranks outside the top

677
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: seventy in all major categories. Bogs. Army has won the

678
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 1: last two in this rivalry. Do they make it three

679
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: in a row on Saturday or will they take their

680
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,000
Speaker 1: foot off the gas man?

681
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,160
Speaker 3: How do you not take Army here? I think is

682
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 3: my initial thought in this game. I actually like the

683
00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 3: over as well. I think that you know are.

684
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: Thirty game.

685
00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,080
Speaker 3: This game traditionally goes under. I mean a lot of

686
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:17,040
Speaker 3: money has been made by people taking the under in

687
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 3: this football game. So I'm not gonna sit here and

688
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:23,160
Speaker 3: say I love love the over is, but I do

689
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 3: like it here. I like it better than laying the

690
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:27,880
Speaker 3: points and take an Army I think. I do think.

691
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 3: I don't think Navy is a bad team at all.

692
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 3: Blake Corvath has been strong, He's going to be back

693
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 3: for this game. I just don't think they have the

694
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 3: defense that Army does at Navy. Uh yes, Army was

695
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 3: rolled by Notre Dame, but they beat the breaks off

696
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 3: of most other teams, including too Lane in the AC

697
00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 3: title game last week. This is the number one rushing

698
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 3: offense in the country. Navy hasn't been great at stopping

699
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 3: the run. Give me Army to win this one and cover.

700
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 3: But the over is my favorite beat in this game.

701
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 3: I like the fact that Horvath is playing for Navy

702
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 3: makes them way better. But I just think Army does

703
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 3: the heavy lifting and scores here, and the fact that

704
00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 3: you know Horvath is in this game makes it more

705
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 3: possible for Navy to be in this game and score points.

706
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 3: So the overs my favorite play. But I also lay

707
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 3: the points and take an.

708
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,640
Speaker 1: Army trelle You are an American hero military man. Which

709
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 1: branch are you going with here?

710
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,760
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah? And I mean I understand first of all,

711
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,320
Speaker 2: the under is the lock. I mean, there's nothing new

712
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 2: you think. Fifteen one in one is the under in

713
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,600
Speaker 2: the last seventeen meetings at a neutral site, fifteen one

714
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 2: in one. I'm not going against that. It doesn't matter

715
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 2: what the totals at is, and the total is always

716
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 2: around this number. It constantly goes over because what is

717
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 2: the what is these two teams they're both running the

718
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 2: football teams. They both run a bunch of clock. You

719
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 2: could go back to the first scar fast the first quarter.

720
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 2: You could look at it could be over and you

721
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 2: only saw two and a half possessions, so it could

722
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 2: be very very quick for this I can see a

723
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 2: seven to three first quarter. That would be the most.

724
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 2: That's if you have the over you're hoping for a

725
00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 2: seven to three first quarter. That's how you're you're sitting

726
00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 2: here saying, they all right, now, we're.

727
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 3: Pacing some three.

728
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 2: Yes.

729
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 3: So because it's under forty points, so I.

730
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 2: Think it's gonna be a little bit of Maybe I

731
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,399
Speaker 2: like Army early because I do think that Bryson Dally

732
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 2: in the offense may shell shock this Navy team early

733
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:15,920
Speaker 2: on and be able to put up a quick score.

734
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 2: But I don't think Navy's going away in this game.

735
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 2: This is a rivalry, ugly rivalry game. I mean Army Navy,

736
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,400
Speaker 2: doesn't matter if it's football, basketball. These games are competitive.

737
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 2: These games are serious. And even in the heyday of

738
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,200
Speaker 2: some of those best Navy teams, when it was flipped

739
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 2: around and Navy was the ones that was pushing everybody

740
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 2: around and controlling the line of scrimmage and had the

741
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:39,200
Speaker 2: better option play and all of that, they were still

742
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 2: covering this line against Army was still covering this line.

743
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 2: Both of these two teams play single possession games, and

744
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:47,879
Speaker 2: I can see something like that. I mean Army didn't

745
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,080
Speaker 2: cover against air Force. When they played air Force earlier

746
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 2: on in the year triple option team, they would have

747
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:53,919
Speaker 2: covered this line, but they didn't cover the game there.

748
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:56,879
Speaker 2: I think Navy is really getting up for this, and defensively,

749
00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 2: with the week to prepare, they're going to have a

750
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 2: game plan ready that's not gonna let Army just score

751
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 2: up and down at will on them. So I do

752
00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:06,359
Speaker 2: love the under. I think that this is a low

753
00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 2: scoring game, but I also think that the six and

754
00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 2: a half is too many points because I think this

755
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 2: Navy team just isn't going away.

756
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,520

00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,320
Speaker 2: And that Recers team looks really really interesting.

776
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: I'll take your word for it. Man. Staying on Saturday,

777
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,399
Speaker 1: we have the Salute to Service Bowl, kicking off at

778
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:23,839
Speaker 1: nine pm Eastern time in Montgomery, Alabama, South Alabama. They

779
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 1: are seven point favorites against Western Michigan South Alabama. Very

780
00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 1: middle of the road Sun Belt team. I think you

781
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,919
Speaker 1: could fairly say finishing six and six straight up five

782
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:36,800
Speaker 1: and seven ats. They have a top twenty scoring offense,

783
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 1: but are ninety ninth total defense. The Jaguars could be

784
00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:44,479
Speaker 1: without quarterback Go Lopez as well, who's questionable. They also

785
00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:47,920
Speaker 1: be without their leading rusher Fluff Bothwell, who did hit

786
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: the transfer portal Western Michigan equally mid MAC team, I

787
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,840
Speaker 1: would say six and six straight up five and seven

788
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,440
Speaker 1: ats as well. Their offense on paper is worse eighty

789
00:36:57,480 --> 00:37:00,960
Speaker 1: second in total offense and their defense on first until

790
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,919
Speaker 1: defense as well. They're leading wide receiver Titan Blake Bosma.

791
00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 1: He's in the portal as is one of their top

792
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,880
Speaker 1: defensive players edge Corey Walker Trell. Do youve a side

793
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: in the sleut to service.

794
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 2: Ball, Yeah, I do. I love Western Michigan plus the

795
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 2: points here, it's really hard for me to take South

796
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 2: Alabama with it looks like Goo Lopez is not gonna play.

797
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:26,359
Speaker 2: We'll see. I mean, the injury, what concerns are really

798
00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 2: big there, But Fluff boff Well is going off to

799
00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:32,000
Speaker 2: bigger and better things. And if you tech stay tapped

800
00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,320
Speaker 2: in a lot with the South Alabama team and watching

801
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 2: him play, you knew that this is a transfer portal

802
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 2: candidate of somebody who's gonna go off to a bigger school,

803
00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 2: do some big things and possibly have a run in

804
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 2: the NFL, so not surprising, but he's just such a

805
00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 2: big part of their offense and what they do scoring.

806
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,439
Speaker 2: And I think this Western Michigan team coming down here

807
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 2: with a little bit of a chip on their shoulder,

808
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 2: coming down to Alabama to play this game South Alabama,

809
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 2: They're gonna have the crowd a little bit. I think

810
00:37:57,200 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 2: they're gonna get up and what is a neutral site

811
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,600
Speaker 2: but feels quite a more like a road game here.

812
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: I like Western Michigan, Western Michigan in the MAC to

813
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 2: be able to keep this one close. I'm taking them

814
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:07,839
Speaker 2: plus the points, so I'll speak a lot of money

815
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,080
Speaker 2: line because these games can go either kind of way.

816
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 2: And if they don't have their starting quarterback and starting

817
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 2: running back that is, you know, all conference than one

818
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,840
Speaker 2: hundred percent. I think that there's a lot of opening

819
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 2: door possibility opening for Western Michigan get out right when here.

820
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 1: Bogman, candidly, I haven't really kept up much with South Bama.

821
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 1: I wasn't familiar with Fluff's game coming into this one.

822
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:33,799
Speaker 1: So do you have any thoughts on South Alabama or

823
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,080
Speaker 1: Western Michigan as a whole.

824
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, not my favorite game. It is one if you're

825
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 3: doing those confidence matchups, this one would be very low.

826
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,640
Speaker 3: Okay for me, this would be a single digit game

827
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 3: for sure. But I'll say this, I'm not touching the

828
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:50,280
Speaker 3: total with Lopez questionable. But I do still like South Alabama,

829
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 3: like Trell alluded to, is basically a home game for them.

830
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 3: WMU has had just such a bad defense. I just

831
00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 3: cannot take the points with them. I don't feel like

832
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 3: it's a very matchup for the Broncos either. South Bama

833
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,239
Speaker 3: is gettable, but really it's through the air, and this

834
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 3: is a run first team. I believe they pass it

835
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,319
Speaker 3: like a forty four point six percent clip somewhere in

836
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:15,760
Speaker 3: that range. So and also like if they are playing comeback,

837
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 3: they just lost their leader in receptions and receiving touchdowns,

838
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,080
Speaker 3: and they're tight in Bosma. Who's in the portal? You know,

839
00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 3: we know South Alabama's gonna pass, and they lost their

840
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 3: sack leader and Corey Walker as you alluded to as well,

841
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,920
Speaker 3: we show a big advantage to South Alabama if Lopez

842
00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:36,280
Speaker 3: is playing MVP, but I don't think he is either.

843
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,280
Speaker 3: I still would lay this seven and a half because

844
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,000
Speaker 3: we see this as more of a thirteen and a

845
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 3: half point game. Should Lopez be in there, so I

846
00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,120
Speaker 3: know he's a big part of this team, and he

847
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 3: is the bigger loss to his team than Bosma and Walker.

848
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,000
Speaker 3: For Western Michigan, I just think that Western Michigan doesn't

849
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,520
Speaker 3: have anything without those guys. So for me, I'm gonna

850
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,320
Speaker 3: take the Jags and lay the points.

851
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,760
Speaker 1: On Tuesday night, we have the Miami Beach Bowl between

852
00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 1: the twenty fifth ranked of Memphis Tigers and the West

853
00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 1: Virginia Mountaineers. Memphis finished fourth in the AAC ten and

854
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 1: two straight up six five and one ats. As always,

855
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,280
Speaker 1: the Tigers have an explosive offense twelfth in total offense.

856
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: They also are top ten against the run on defense,

857
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:24,000
Speaker 1: but one hundred and fourteenth in the nation against the pass.

858
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:26,719
Speaker 1: But weirdly that kind of sets them up pretty well

859
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,200
Speaker 1: against West Virginia. After finishing six and six and middle

860
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,239
Speaker 1: of the road in the Big twelve standings, WVU has

861
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: fired Neil Brown. A lot of rich Rod calls out

862
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 1: there on the internet for him to maybe return there

863
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,840
Speaker 1: once again. Top thirty in rushing, but they're passing offense

864
00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,040
Speaker 1: ranks outside of the top one hundred bogs. Do you

865
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 1: see any value currently on the board with Memphis favored

866
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: by two and a half.

867
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like Memphis in this game. And Chad Scott

868
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:54,080
Speaker 3: took overs the OC. You know, he's the OC as

869
00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:56,839
Speaker 3: the interim head coach in this game. And to have

870
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 3: not a lot of guys transferred yet is pretty impressive

871
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,279
Speaker 3: for West Virginia with their head coach leaving. But that's

872
00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,320
Speaker 3: why they took this early game. They took this early

873
00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 3: game to give them a chance to keep the kids

874
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,319
Speaker 3: there and then go into the transfer portal before the

875
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 3: twenty eighth, of course, so it's been impressive that they've

876
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 3: been able to keep it. But Memphis wanted an early Bowl.

877
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,760
Speaker 3: They also wanted a game that was within driving distance

878
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,120
Speaker 3: of them. Don't know who's driving from Memphis seven hours

879
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 3: to Frisco on a Tuesday, But okay, it's a close

880
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 3: game in proximity for Memphis. I just think that Memphis

881
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,920
Speaker 3: is too experienced. They're one of the better G five

882
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 3: teams in the country. This is another game that the

883
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,399
Speaker 3: underdog just doesn't match up well. WVU is a much

884
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:43,359
Speaker 3: better rushing team than passing. Memphis has played top ten

885
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 3: run defense this season. Give me Seth Head again. Who

886
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:50,399
Speaker 3: is the AAC all time leading passer right now, and

887
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 3: the Tigers in this game, the pass defense is bad

888
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,959
Speaker 3: for WVU. Memphis has a lot of experience. I'm laying

889
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:57,280
Speaker 3: the points and taking the Tigers.

890
00:41:57,520 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think this is probably one of my favorite

891
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: sides as well, with with Memphis minus two and a half.

892
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:03,879
Speaker 1: If you want to forget the points, mius one forty

893
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 1: two on the money line, where are you going to reil?

894
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 1: I love WVU, No.

895
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:13,799
Speaker 2: I really don't love WVU. They actually annoying me relatively,

896
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 2: But I think that so who were the two losses

897
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:21,279
Speaker 2: to Memphis? Well, one was Navy. What does Navy do?

898
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 2: They run the football, but they run the football unconventionally,

899
00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,279
Speaker 2: and I think that's where WVU get some It's the

900
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,879
Speaker 2: unconventional running of the football, the quarterback taking off when

901
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 2: you're not expecting them to take off and having a

902
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 2: twenty yard game. And I think that he can do

903
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,440
Speaker 2: that in this game. And so I'm not one hundred

904
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,279
Speaker 2: percent there on just jumping on the Memphis side of this.

905
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 2: But what I do like is the over. I think

906
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 2: the over is a great play. I think that Memphis

907
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 2: is going to be able to score the ball, and

908
00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 2: if I'm right about WVU and their contribution of things

909
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 2: and being able to find those those rushing lanes and

910
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 2: that rushing attack that will work against this team and

911
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,279
Speaker 2: open up their pass game a little bit. They'll be

912
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:57,919
Speaker 2: able to put up some points too. And I've seen

913
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 2: Memphis spurry on the defensive side of ball and be

914
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 2: able to let other teams just hang around in the

915
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,960
Speaker 2: game and score points. So I like the over in

916
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:07,760
Speaker 2: the game. I think this is a high scoring affair,

917
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,360
Speaker 2: but not one hundred percent there on mephis just yet.

918
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:10,799
Speaker 1: Yeah.

919
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,919
Speaker 3: Look roster wise, the Big twelve versus G five team,

920
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 3: So yeah, you know that there is a threat for

921
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,480
Speaker 3: WVU for sure. Iistink Memphis one of the better G

922
00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 3: five teams, so but we can both be right on

923
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 3: this one.

924
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: We've got another G five game in the Boca Raton Bowl,

925
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 1: with JMU favored by six and a half against Western

926
00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 1: Kentucky on Wednesday evening. This is despite the news that

927
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:38,640
Speaker 1: JMU quarterback Alonso Barnett the Third is out Billy Atkins

928
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,720
Speaker 1: in at quarterback. They'll also be without starting left tackle

929
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: Jesse Raimel, who hit the portal. This could actually hurt

930
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 1: the Dukes, who ranked twenty fourth in scoring offense JMU

931
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: in their first year without sig Signetty. They're eight and

932
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,439
Speaker 1: four straight up six and six ats WKU, of course,

933
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,799
Speaker 1: coming off that embarrassing fifty two to twelve lost two

934
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:04,240
Speaker 1: Jacksonville State in the Conference USA title game. They're ninety

935
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:08,400
Speaker 1: six ranked in total defense and they was absolutely exposed

936
00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: on last Friday night. And their second leading wide receiver,

937
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 1: Easton Messer, he is also now in the portal trell

938
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 1: Do you have a feel about this one at all?

939
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 1: WKU feels like it's kind of on the schneid right now,

940
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,760
Speaker 1: But no Barnett for JMU makes this line feel quite big.

941
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, it does. It does feel a little bit too big.

942
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:28,799
Speaker 2: I understand why the line grew because I do think JMU,

943
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,080
Speaker 2: on paper full strength, is a better team and they

944
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,600
Speaker 2: probably should easily be able to get the cover here.

945
00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 2: But Billy Atkins, I mean, it's been a while since

946
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 2: we've seen him in the starting role. Last time we

947
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 2: did it was against Marshall and he didn't look good.

948
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:42,920
Speaker 2: He threw four interceptions. That was some years ago. He's

949
00:44:42,960 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 2: grown in the program, and I think that's the good

950
00:44:44,640 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 2: thing about it, is the fact that he's stayed with

951
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 2: this team, and he's grown in the program, but that

952
00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:53,239
Speaker 2: doesn't always translate into wins and laying points with that.

953
00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 2: I don't think I want to lay points with that.

954
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 2: I think that he can make this a competitive game,

955
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 2: and maybe this is interesting. But WKU, I think that

956
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,879
Speaker 2: they can put together a nice game plan and give

957
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,840
Speaker 2: JMU some fits. Maybe JMU still gets to win, but

958
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know about that. I'm not

959
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,640
Speaker 2: feeling laying the points with Billy Atkins here, so I'm

960
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 2: taking WKA plus points Bogs.

961
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:17,040
Speaker 3: Well. I still I have questions about this game still,

962
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:21,520
Speaker 3: and my questions are because felt camp for WKU went

963
00:45:21,560 --> 00:45:24,400
Speaker 3: into the portal. It's unclear whether he's gonna play this

964
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,760
Speaker 3: game or not. But if he doesn't play this game,

965
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:30,200
Speaker 3: the second string and third string in Turner Heldon and TJ.

966
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:34,000
Speaker 3: Finley are both in the portal as well. Yeah, so WKU,

967
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 3: with a rhythm passing offense, may be down to their

968
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,080
Speaker 3: fourth quarterback in this game. And this is the danger

969
00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,839
Speaker 3: of betting these Bowl games early. So you know, let's

970
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 3: wait till the day before. Let's see let's get these

971
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,440
Speaker 3: reports and see what's happening here. But I don't expect

972
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,120
Speaker 3: him to play. I expect him to be down to

973
00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 3: their fourth quarterback and a fourth versus a second. Give

974
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:58,440
Speaker 3: me the second, and well, you know we've heard James Madison.

975
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 3: I feel like has done a relatively great job here,

976
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 3: Bob Chesney. You know, they lost Signetti, they lost a

977
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 3: ton of transfers as well, and they still are in

978
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,920
Speaker 3: a bowl game here. I think it's a pretty impressive job.

979
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,720
Speaker 3: So I think Atkins can do a lot of similar

980
00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 3: things that Barnett can. Who's up for the Bill Dudley Award,

981
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,760
Speaker 3: which I didn't realize they give to the best player

982
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:26,840
Speaker 3: in the Commonwealth of Virginia. I'm sure Trella is familiar

983
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,799
Speaker 3: with this award, but I didn't know anything about it.

984
00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 3: So Barnett is up for that award with a couple

985
00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,319
Speaker 3: other guys on a couple of defensive players, one from

986
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:39,360
Speaker 3: Tech and one from Virginia for that award. But freshman

987
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,880
Speaker 3: quarterback jac Evans, he said, is gonna get some chances

988
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,960
Speaker 3: as well. I just I like the Dukes, but I

989
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,320
Speaker 3: like the under. With these backup quarterbacks, I think the

990
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:48,719
Speaker 3: under is the best play here.

991
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably not a bad play at all. We'll

992
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 1: go ahead and round out the program with the label

993
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:58,480
Speaker 1: in Sofi Stadium on Wednesday night, with cal currently favored

994
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 1: by two and a half points over LV. We did

995
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 1: see some pretty steep line movement since earlier in the week.

996
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 1: That was because it was just announced honestly, moments before

997
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,799
Speaker 1: we went live. I hope everyone was up to date

998
00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 1: on this. Quarterback Fernando Mendoza is entering the portal. I

999
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,240
Speaker 1: don't think he's going to be playing in this game.

1000
00:47:16,840 --> 00:47:20,440
Speaker 1: UNLV is ten and three with their two losses coming

1001
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,360
Speaker 1: to Boise State. Of course, they have another loss in

1002
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:25,240
Speaker 1: there as well, including last week's twenty one to seven

1003
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 1: loss in the Mountain West Championship game. They are seven

1004
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,880
Speaker 1: and six ATS, but they lose head coach Barry Odom

1005
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:36,160
Speaker 1: who's left for Purdue, and starting qrnerback Tony Grimes also

1006
00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 1: in the portal. Still, they have quarterback Hodgemlik Williams, a

1007
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,759
Speaker 1: fan favorite of our guy Terrell there. He has pushed

1008
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:46,120
Speaker 1: this team to fourteenth in scoring offense and also fifth

1009
00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:49,960
Speaker 1: in rushing offense in the nation. The calgorithm it was

1010
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,480
Speaker 1: a fun story. I know a lot of people enjoyed

1011
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:54,920
Speaker 1: the game day that was out there on the West

1012
00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:56,240
Speaker 1: Coast earlier this season.

1013
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know either what derailed the season? They should

1014
00:47:59,360 --> 00:47:59,799
Speaker 2: have beat him.

1015
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they ultimately finished six and six straight up

1016
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,879
Speaker 1: six and six ats, most recently losing six of their

1017
00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:09,440
Speaker 1: last nine games. However, they do have the superior defense,

1018
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:13,640
Speaker 1: including being ranked six against the pass, but as we mentioned,

1019
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:17,720
Speaker 1: Fernando Mendoza their starting quarterback. He is entering the portal.

1020
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:21,400
Speaker 1: Their second leading wide receiver, Nysa Hunter also in the

1021
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:24,919
Speaker 1: portal bogs. With all this portal talk, do you have

1022
00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 1: a lean here at all? Yeah?

1023
00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:31,880
Speaker 3: I mean I do. I don't like UNLV in this matchup,

1024
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:36,799
Speaker 3: but with Mendoza leaving, what I really hate about this

1025
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,760
Speaker 3: matchup is that COW was favored. This is going to flip.

1026
00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:42,799
Speaker 3: UNLV should probably be favored if Mendoza is not going.

1027
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:44,440
Speaker 1: So why I think we have to get on UNLV

1028
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:45,239
Speaker 1: now if we want to.

1029
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so let's take the plus points with UNLV.

1030
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:51,040
Speaker 3: I don't like this matchup, though, I'll say that because

1031
00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 3: we have Barry Otam leaving. We know that UNLV runs

1032
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:57,280
Speaker 3: the ball at a fifty five percent clip goal, plays

1033
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,960
Speaker 3: well against the run, and they haven't really been soundly

1034
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,080
Speaker 3: beat outside of that game against SMU. They have a

1035
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:05,480
Speaker 3: bad loss. They lost to Florida State, so that is

1036
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:08,360
Speaker 3: a terrible loss. But they should have beat Miami. They

1037
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:10,960
Speaker 3: lost seventeen to fifteen, a pit twenty four to three

1038
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:14,640
Speaker 3: versus NC State. They lost by eight points to Syracuse.

1039
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:17,439
Speaker 3: These are good teams that they've played. They have played

1040
00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,959
Speaker 3: a hard schedule. They have not played in Mountain West

1041
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:24,400
Speaker 3: schedule like UNLV has. So I do think Cal is

1042
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:27,680
Speaker 3: the better team. But losing your starting quarterback it is

1043
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:32,399
Speaker 3: a huge loss, especially in a game that's sooner in

1044
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 3: this bowl process here, So I'll take the points in UNLV.

1045
00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:39,360
Speaker 3: I'm not real happy about it, though. I don't like

1046
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:41,920
Speaker 3: this would be another low confidence game for me. If

1047
00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,360
Speaker 3: Mendoza was playing, I think I would take Cal with confidence.

1048
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,480
Speaker 3: Really don't like that they're favored, But without Mendoza, I

1049
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,439
Speaker 3: just can't take them. I'll be taking UNLV. I don't

1050
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:52,000
Speaker 3: like it though.

1051
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 1: Trail one last ride with Hodge Maleek Williamson company here, Yeah, of.

1052
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,560
Speaker 2: Course, like, come on, now, this cow team is not

1053
00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:01,399
Speaker 2: like that. They're really no. I just let you guys

1054
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 2: talk them up, you know, to let you let you

1055
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 2: build and build and build for me to just come

1056
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:07,920
Speaker 2: in here and say we need to hammer you NLV

1057
00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 2: in this spot. Yes, I kind of wish Mendoza was

1058
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,239
Speaker 2: playing so that we could just go ahead and x

1059
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:15,640
Speaker 2: out that the Mendoza factor. I don't think Mendoza was

1060
00:50:15,680 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 2: a factor at all. I think that they're gonna are

1061
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,719
Speaker 2: they gonna put up more points with most Mendoza, Yes,

1062
00:50:20,920 --> 00:50:22,799
Speaker 2: but that's not gonna do anything for the defense, and

1063
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,839
Speaker 2: the defense has been been worse over the past month.

1064
00:50:26,200 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 2: They got lucky to get out of there with the

1065
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 2: cover against wake Forest. They had Syracuse come in there

1066
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:34,880
Speaker 2: off of loss on the road and embarrass them in

1067
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:37,880
Speaker 2: their own place. Syracuse Common Cord went and threw the

1068
00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:39,920
Speaker 2: ball all over the field on them, and then they

1069
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 2: went and got into a I understand it's a rivalry game,

1070
00:50:42,160 --> 00:50:44,839
Speaker 2: but you getting into a grudge match with Stanford at

1071
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,879
Speaker 2: three and eight is not good for the resume as well.

1072
00:50:47,920 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 2: And then SMU did what SMU was supposed to do

1073
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,200
Speaker 2: and destroy this team. Like I think that this cow

1074
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,960
Speaker 2: team for weeks has been showing us who they are

1075
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,160
Speaker 2: and there actually might not even be a BOLL team.

1076
00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:00,840
Speaker 2: That might be early season success and not late season

1077
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 2: success that really really carried them to this bowl game,

1078
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,839
Speaker 2: and so I think that, yeah, I'm all over UNLV here.

1079
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 2: I like UNLV's defense, I like the offense way more

1080
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,759
Speaker 2: of UNLV side, and I bet I'm probably gonna end

1081
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 2: up making in this game. Is UNLV team total over? Like,

1082
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:17,400
Speaker 2: I just think that UNLV is gonna be able to

1083
00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 2: take advantage of this cow defense and put up some

1084
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,799
Speaker 2: points regardless. So I like the over for the game.

1085
00:51:21,840 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 2: I like UNLV team sod over, and I'm on the

1086
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:25,000
Speaker 2: UNLV side all the way.

1087
00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:28,480
Speaker 3: It's right. I think kaj Maleek Williams knows where LA

1088
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 3: is on a map? You think he can question that?

1089
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,440
Speaker 2: Very questionable if he knows where LA is at on

1090
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:33,839
Speaker 2: a map.

1091
