But 60 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 3: I mean you must be. 61 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 5: I yeah, I am. I am a night owl. 62 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 3: Man. 63 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: I don't know what it is doing a morning radio 64 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 2: show each day. Rich does one in San Diego. Yeah, 65 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 2: I could do it. But I would be a disaster 66 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 2: because I literally I can't go to bed early. I'd 67 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 2: be taking weird naps and it would be just crazy 68 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 2: by Friday. But yeah, I am a night owl there, 69 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 2: Crack for sure. 70 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 5: Man. 71 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 3: Cool. Yeah, you guys right, both both watched them. Of 72 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 3: course both watch the games yesterday, and yeah, we'll just 73 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: think of that thirty thirty to oh run. Man. 74 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 2: That's the thing. Like Yukon dominating Illinois. They win by 75 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: twenty five points and as you just said, right there, Crack, 76 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: the score was tied twenty three, twenty three and Ukon 77 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: goes on a thirty to nothing Run's it was so 78 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 2: crazy where Alabama head coached, Natoates. So Alabama beat Clemson 79 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 2: last night, Alabama will now face Yukon in the Final four, 80 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 2: and so Natoates in his postgame press conference after Bama 81 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: beats Clemson, he's like, did you kind of go to 82 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 2: thirty to zero run? 83 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 5: Did? 84 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 2: That's unbelievable in the Elite eight, that's unheard of. And 85 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: this is the number one offense in college basketball in 86 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 2: Illinois and they get boat raced to the tune of 87 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,239 Speaker 2: a thirty zero run. 88 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 5: It's insane. 89 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 2: What Yukon has been able to do, not just this tournament, 90 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 2: but last year as well. 91 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, ten double digit wins in a row. I just 92 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 4: I get that's unfathomable in the tournament. Ten double digit 93 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 4: wins in a row. I said it to you guys 94 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 4: yesterday when we were doing the countdown to tip Off 95 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 4: show yesterday, Brian I was saying, look, I'll take Yukon 96 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 4: minus saint half, but I would take them minus nine 97 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 4: and a half. I'd take them minus ten and a half. 98 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,039 Speaker 4: There's almost not a number I wouldn't feel comfortable taking 99 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 4: Yukon because of how dominant they've been. And we've said 100 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 4: it many times against many different competitors, like, well, this 101 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 4: is the second ranked defense, so it may slow down 102 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 4: the Huskies, you know, Oh well they have a great 103 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 4: big man, so maybe difficult to get past the rim protector. 104 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,960 Speaker 6: Oh well, they're great perimeter shooters, so. 105 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 4: Yukon, I mean, they can be as great as they want, 106 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 4: as you know, Johnny Hustle on the defensive end, as 107 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 4: they want. But you know, shooters can shoot over a 108 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 4: defense and every single team doesn't matter what dynamic they 109 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 4: have offensively defensively, Dan Hurley and that team and that staff. 110 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 4: They find a way to win. They are grinders when 111 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 4: they need to be, They're clutch when they need to be. 112 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 4: They're just they're a solid of a college basketball team 113 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,799 Speaker 4: over these two years that we may have ever seen 114 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 4: in the tournament. 115 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 3: Wow, that really says a lot. I mean, you know 116 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 3: we are we're watching maybe the most dominant team in 117 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 3: the tournament since one of my favorite teams, the nineteen 118 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 3: ninety u n LV team with Tarka, Larry Johnson, and 119 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 3: Stacey Augman. Yeah, yu Kon has now covered spread eleven 120 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 3: straight tournament games count of the last season. I mean, 121 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 3: they're just playing in some perfect basketball now, both sides 122 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 3: of the court. That again, that thirty to zero run 123 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 3: yesterday was really something to watch. You know, the record 124 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 3: is actually forty to zero. They weren't too far from that. 125 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 3: But you know, this line opens at eleven and a half. 126 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 3: And I made a phone call right away because you know, 127 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:43,239 Speaker 3: I really trust a couple different people that in my circle, 128 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 3: and it just looks so high eleven and a half 129 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 3: and they were like, do you realize the guy I 130 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 3: talked to call to he goes, do you realize how 131 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 3: Alabama is not going to shoot the lights out like 132 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 3: they did here and Clemson missed a lot of free throws. 133 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 3: He said that that line is probably correct, but it 134 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 3: act she went down here in Vegas. The Sharper sportsbook 135 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 3: takes a pretty good pop at a time. It actually 136 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 3: went down to ten, and it was ten for a 137 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 3: while there. And I haven't checked this morning when I 138 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 3: went to bed at that sports book it was ten, 139 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 3: but I'm going I'm going to check. Like I said, 140 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 3: eleven and a half just sounds like too many points 141 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 3: in a Final four game. It just sounds but maybe 142 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 3: not for not in this situation. So yes, it's still 143 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 3: ten in that Sharp sportsbook here in town, which at Circa. 144 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 3: You know, Circa takes a big bet here in town 145 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 3: live bet of course at bet MGM ten and a 146 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 3: half minus fifteen one sixty one and a half. It 147 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 3: just seems like, I don't know something, something smells in 148 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 3: this game. I am probably not going to have a 149 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 3: side on this. On this game, it just seems like 150 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 3: double digit Final four. It just doesn't feel right to me. 151 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 3: But I'm sure that maybe you know that, like like 152 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,760 Speaker 3: I said, Alabama could easily come out here and you know, 153 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 3: just lay a total legg and get blown away by 154 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,240 Speaker 3: a large double digits too. So it's their first it's 155 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,679 Speaker 3: their first trip to a Final four too. 156 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 5: So that's right. It props to them. That's a great accomplishment. 157 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 2: But now you go against Yukon and I hear you 158 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 2: crack And it's funny. I've done this many times where 159 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 2: over these last two NCAA tournaments, there's some big numbers, 160 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 2: like yesterday was a big number. You're like, Illinois, they're 161 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,400 Speaker 2: playing some good basketball. They get eight and a half points. 162 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 2: That's a lot of points. And then after it's twenty 163 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 2: three to twenty three and you're thinking, yeah, they're hanging 164 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 2: with them. Then you look up after a handful of minutes, 165 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,719 Speaker 2: you're like, what is happening right now? You kind has 166 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 2: had so many games where you might go into the 167 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 2: game thinking this is a lot of points as far 168 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 2: as the point spread goes, and then man, the complexion 169 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,320 Speaker 2: changes so fast. One thing we have to say. It's 170 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 2: not just for Yukon, which they absolutely deserve, it's what 171 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,839 Speaker 2: was Illinois thinking. Brad Underwood his game plan was one 172 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: of the worst I've ever seen, and the lack of adjustments, 173 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 2: it's like, what are you doing, Like, We'll have Jeff 174 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,079 Speaker 2: Schwartz on in about ten minutes and that's his famous 175 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 2: slogan is what are we doing? You couldn't help but 176 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 2: think that while watching Illinois yesterday. They interviewed Brad Underwood 177 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 2: in the first half, and he's talking about the big 178 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 2: man from Yukon, Donovan Klingen, and he's just a racing shots. 179 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 2: He's blocking shots left and right. He's altering shots left 180 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 2: and right. And Underwood was like, Hey, if we get 181 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: blocked a thousand times, we get blocked a thousand times. 182 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: And it's like, that's a horrible strategy, Brad, what are 183 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 2: you doing? And it's like they never went for a 184 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:54,560 Speaker 2: mid range shot. They just kept attacking Klingon and it 185 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 2: didn't work at all. The lack of adjustments, the horrible 186 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 2: game plan. It was brutal yesterday for Illinois, and it 187 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 2: was a basketball crime for the number one offense in 188 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 2: college basketball to just stick with something that's not even 189 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 2: close to working. It was beyond reckless as far as 190 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: basketball goes. So I give Yukon all the credit in 191 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 2: the world, but at the same time, I look at 192 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 2: Illinois more than sideways, like what were you thinking yesterday. 193 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 3: I agree. 194 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 4: It's one of those feelings where you look at the 195 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 4: second half especially and you're like, if it isn't working, 196 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 4: can we please call a time out and just say, Okay, guys, 197 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 4: look we got to scrap this. Like they're on a run, 198 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 4: we need to find a way to stop it. And 199 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 4: like you said, maybe a shot from the elbow. Maybe 200 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 4: feed I don't know, feed the wing and have them 201 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 4: take a couple of dribbles and then shoot instead of 202 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 4: trying to get it into the paint and get blocked. 203 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 4: But this kind of reminds me a little bit of 204 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 4: baseball way, So follow me here, launch, angle, home run hitting. 205 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 4: All the things that the analytics era has brought to 206 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 4: baseball has created these three outcomes, the walk, the strikeout, 207 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 4: and the home run. That is the most Yeah, that's 208 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 4: the most likely thing you're gonna see. You're not gonna 209 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 4: get a lot of base runners. You're not going to 210 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 4: see a lot of small ball anymore. 211 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:22,199 Speaker 6: And so when a. 212 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 4: Baseball team gets to the postseason off of having an 213 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 4: analytically successful season, they'll stick with the plan, which is, hey, 214 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 4: we're going to obviously try to swing for the fences here, 215 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 4: We're going to pile up home runs, whether they're solo 216 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 4: shots or you know, get you get a hot shot 217 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 4: in the hole and there's a run around base and 218 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 4: it's on our, it's our, you know, a two run homer, 219 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 4: whatever it is, it doesn't matter. Everybody's aiming to launch 220 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 4: the baseball. But then you go on a cold streak. 221 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 4: And if you go on a cold streak for two 222 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 4: games in the MLB postseason, you're getting bounced. And I 223 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 4: think that's what happened to Like when you are reliant 224 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 4: on a certain analytically successful brand of basketball and you 225 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 4: get to the tournament playing that way, it's a little 226 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 4: bit of live by the live by the sword, die 227 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 4: by the sword. 228 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 6: And so coach Underwood he. 229 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 4: Looked at how he got to the Elite eight and 230 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 4: he said, I'm not changing right now. 231 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 6: I'm not changing for Yukon. 232 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 4: And there's a little bit of stubbornness and confidence and 233 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 4: cockiness there and maybe a little bit of pride there. 234 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 4: And pride comes before the fall. And that's what we 235 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 4: saw with the ALIONI because they stuck with the plan 236 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 4: and the plan got stuck to them. 237 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 6: That's exactly how it went down. 238 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 3: Draws a very good parallels. You're right to baseball. And 239 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 3: you know, going back to what Brian said too yesterday 240 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 3: at game time, Yes, this game went down and actually 241 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 3: there was a there was some nines out there even 242 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 3: then one day eight and a half and even a 243 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 3: couple eights at game time, a couple of sharp guys 244 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 3: in town, uh here fell for the bait and to 245 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 3: the points there, And you're right, Brian, when it was 246 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,959 Speaker 3: twenty three twenty three, they had to think, wow, look 247 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 3: how sharp I am. Or you know, they're hanging in there, 248 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 3: and you know it's something we want to do. Naturally 249 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 3: a guy even like myself, of course I actually I 250 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 3: naturally look towards the dogs to see where the value is. 251 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 3: But you know, you have to evolve and you have 252 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 3: to lay favorites too. Alabama was a small favorite but 253 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 3: a very big play for me yesterday, so I was 254 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 3: happy they won. And you know, Rich, we have this source, 255 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 3: this source, I look up to the heavens. We have 256 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 3: a source that we bet that we bet against, because yeah, 257 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 3: it's just as good to find a losing handicapper as 258 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 3: a winning handicapper. We have a losing handicapper. We probably 259 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 3: should have shared, but you Jeff found her. I said, 260 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 3: I said her, Wow, be careful, Bill, But yeah, Jeff 261 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 3: found the source. And really it's been just the gift 262 00:13:55,800 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 3: that keeps giving. And so yesterday when yeah, when I 263 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 3: I already had Alabama, but I seen the source go 264 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 3: against us on the opposite side when putting out their play, 265 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 3: I actually went and bet I did it like a 266 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 3: couple grand more so it was it was a big 267 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 3: play for me. So also, like I said, it's Alabama's now, 268 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 3: this is Alabama's trip. First trip to the Final fours 269 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: was kind of surprising. I thought there, of course even 270 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 3: known as the football school. But I figured sometime, you know, 271 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 3: somewhere down the road. Of course, soon or later I 272 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 3: had to make a Final four. Give you one one 273 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 3: good stat here, pretty good fact. I mean, Natoates great coach, 274 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 3: and he does have a really interesting connection to the 275 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 3: Yukon coach Dan Hurley. Now, ten years ago, Hurley's brother 276 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,960 Speaker 3: Bobby was recruiting a player where Oates was the high 277 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 3: school coach. Bobby was so impressed with Oates that he 278 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 3: hired him to be his assistant coach at Buffalo. Hurley 279 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 3: left Buffalo two years later, Oates took over its head coach. 280 00:14:57,720 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 3: The rest is history. I thought it was pretty cool. 281 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 5: But that's a great story. 282 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, well this should should be should be interested. 283 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 3: Listen the Alabama team also, they're really dangerous, so they 284 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 3: could score with anybody. So but the problem is Yukon 285 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,200 Speaker 3: is going to be one of those teams that I 286 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 3: just don't know if they're going to be stopping stopping 287 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 3: Yukon from scoring. So this is one of those games 288 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 3: where normally I love to give an opinion on I 289 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 3: think the line is a is about right and either 290 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 3: of things when it wouldn't surprise me if it starts 291 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 3: out like a twenty three twenty three but and then 292 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 3: Yukon just pulls away, or it could be a grind 293 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,800 Speaker 3: out game where they can, you know, try to maybe 294 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 3: slow down the pace and not have this one sixty 295 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 3: two total or whatever. So this will be fun. This 296 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 3: will be interesting, guys. 297 00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 2: That's the thing is. And we'll get to that with 298 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: Jeff Schwartz here coming up. I love Alabama's style offensively 299 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 2: when they're going up against Yukon, it's just wide open offense. 300 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 2: We're shooting threes, We're going to try to outscore. 301 00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 3: You. 302 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 2: Like that style they could have some success with it 303 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 2: against Yukon. They just don't play a lick at defense, 304 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like, I don't like that 305 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 2: aspect of it as they're trying to take down Goliath. 306 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:09,920 Speaker 5: But we'll get into it. 307 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 2: They do have some strengths, they have some deficiencies as well, 308 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 2: but I think you have to play almost an abstract 309 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 2: style if you will, against this Yukon team, because they 310 00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 2: just don't have a whole lot of holes. 311 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 5: And if you sort of get. 312 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 2: Them out of what they do or they try to 313 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 2: start playing your game, maybe you can have some success 314 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 2: with it.

Would you even think 368 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 5: about going down that road? 369 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,639 Speaker 3: Right here? I'll go to Rich first. Let's let me 370 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 3: see his opinion. 371 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I knew you were gonna do this. 372 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 4: I mean, I look at Yukon right now as unbeatable. 373 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 4: It feels it feels like throwing good money after bad, 374 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 4: taking any anything against them other than I guess, you know, 375 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 4: some scoring props and things like that, maybe totals. You know, 376 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,959 Speaker 4: I could be swayed to believe a lot of different 377 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 4: things about the way a game is gonna go. I mean, 378 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,879 Speaker 4: some of their games have been you know, score fest 379 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,479 Speaker 4: in some of them have been tighter in terms of 380 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 4: where the total lands, but just in terms of like 381 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 4: who's beating them money line or futures. I'm all over Yukon. 382 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, they have yes and no's here also 383 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,919 Speaker 3: in town where you could get yes or no Yukon 384 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 3: minus two twenty plus one eighty On the other side, 385 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 3: and that ten that I talked about here in town, 386 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 3: me and my big mouth on air, I guess giving 387 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 3: that out or not giving it out, talking about the 388 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 3: only ten on the board. It just went to eleven, 389 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 3: not even ten and a half. They went straight to eleven, 390 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 3: so I don't think there's going to be any tens 391 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 3: at game time. The public is all over this Yukon 392 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 3: team too, and I don't blame them, And I'll tell 393 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 3: you if I had to pick one of the two, 394 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 3: and I trust me, I don't like laying juice would 395 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 3: whatever you want to call it on anything. I'm not 396 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 3: really a juice guy, but I will tell you yesterday, 397 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 3: when this line first came up, I noticed minus five 398 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 3: to one, and now it's actually, you know, more of 399 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 3: like minus seven to one, six and a half, seven 400 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,119 Speaker 3: to one. But yeah, I thought that might have been 401 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,880 Speaker 3: a good play. I just don't. I just don't. Obviously 402 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,120 Speaker 3: don't think that this team could lose to Alabama straight 403 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 3: up no points. But I thought that was a good play. 404 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,679 Speaker 3: But I still couldn't bring myself to lay five to 405 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 3: one on anything. It's just not what I do. Same 406 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 3: thing here. Now you're going down to minus two twenty. 407 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 3: They have to win two games, of course, And I'm 408 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 3: not saying that I wouldn't lay it if I was 409 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 3: forced to have a side either way, I actually would 410 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 3: lay the two twenty. Believe it, they or not. I 411 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:42,920 Speaker 3: think they're that good. You know, they lay over over 412 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 3: any of the teams that you know that the other 413 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 3: team's left, So I think it's probably a decent bet. 414 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 3: But yet, then again, I'm not pulling a trigger, so 415 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 3: you guys will be surprised when I give out a 416 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 3: pick later on. Normally, you know, as the tournament go 417 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 3: deeper and deeper, I bet less and less. I'll just 418 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 3: you know, let games go by and not bet the 419 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,199 Speaker 3: games the games become. There's so many eyeballs on this, 420 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 3: there's so many bookmaker eyeballs on this, originating books and 421 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:17,159 Speaker 3: then originators on this, and every single media source is 422 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 3: covering you know, the Elite eight of course, the Final four. 423 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 3: But you know, so every single source is covering this stuff. 424 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 3: Sweet sixteen want to the entire tournament. They cover, but 425 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 3: it's hard to you know, cover sixty four to sixty 426 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 3: eight teams. And then it gets down where they're going 427 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 3: to get the line correct, is what I'm saying. The 428 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 3: sports books are going to get the line correct. I 429 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 3: feel gambling on a lot of the sides normally this 430 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 3: time of the year is just that it's gambling. I'm 431 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:50,199 Speaker 3: looking to steal, so I'm not looking the gamble. 432 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 5: It's kind of funny crack. 433 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,879 Speaker 2: When you talk about Yukon, it goes from ten and 434 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 2: a half to eleven. When I talk about Yukon, it 435 00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 2: goes from ten and a half to like five. 436 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:06,400 Speaker 3: Weird how they I love and your candor.

The 515 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 9: highlight tip so far is that the person that we 516 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 9: stayed is uh Is has lost the last five wagers 517 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 9: did that they have posted and so the money just 518 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 9: seeps flowing in from the swart syndicates.

I thought you were coming 547 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 3: on visually so we could see you. I didn't know 548 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 3: it was just audio. I had them put up the odds. 549 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 3: And the outfit that you wore, turquoise blue was minus 550 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,719 Speaker 3: two ten followed by hot hot pink plus one thirty. 551 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 3: I didn't know like when you got on. 552 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 9: So yesterday I did wear a turquoise blue shirt, just 553 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 9: not like's not one of those, not one of the outfits, 554 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 9: because again, this is a trip. You're just trying to 555 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 9: survive and advance the next day, right, and so it's 556 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 9: again what Nickelodeon is. I'm not wearing anything more than 557 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 9: a Nike T shirt and dinner, and so I did 558 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 9: not bend my fancy little outfits to wear again like 559 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 9: this is again you understand people listening with kids like, 560 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 9: it's just surviving advance. Man, it's exactly what. It's exactly what, 561 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 9: exactly what what ant state's doing right now to surviving 562 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 9: advance next weekend and we're trying to do to get 563 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 9: you wake up so I get to the next day 564 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 9: without any tears, any bruises, any sunburns. And yeah, part 565 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 9: of that is I just wear whatever I want to dinner. 566 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 3: Rich, Rich you've had some of these kind of trips 567 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 3: with the kids, Oh my gosh. 568 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 6: And that is he's he's describing it perfectly. 569 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 4: When you when you get time alone with the misses, 570 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 4: you get to go somewhere nice. But even if it's 571 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 4: just a night out, you're like, oh my gosh, this 572 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 4: is this is what what like having a date feels like. 573 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 4: When you take your children to a restaurant, you're having dinner. 574 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,920 Speaker 4: You're not on a date, that's you're just having dinner. 575 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 4: It's very utilitarian. It is survival. And speaking of which, 576 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 4: we got Bama, we got yukon surviving advancing, yukon thriving 577 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 4: and advancing. I would argue, uh, looking forward, to uh 578 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 4: to the other side of the Elite eight. What what 579 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 4: do you think makes for the best matchup on the 580 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 4: other side of the bracket. 581 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 3: Who would you hope. 582 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 6: To see in the final four? On on the other 583 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 6: side of the bracket. 584 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 9: I think we all want to Purdue Yukon in the final, right, 585 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 9: I mean, that feels like we're nevitly going to get there. 586 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,600 Speaker 9: Purdue's a lot like Virginia, doing a little differently than 587 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 9: Virginia did a couple of years with the style of play. 588 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 9: But you know they're on a mission man, right, Like 589 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 9: we made fun of them last year nfely so they 590 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 9: deserved it and they and even this year, I mean 591 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 9: a lot of us have said that I don't really 592 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 9: like watching the style of play and not of the 593 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 9: most iesthetically pleasing way to watch basketball. I'm not sure 594 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 9: I watched Yukon play, but I mean, these guys, I 595 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 9: think they they win and cover today. I mean a 596 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 9: just continue to have a collision course. I think with 597 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 9: Yukon i'd be the most fun match. But both big guys, 598 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 9: both teams that know how to win different ways, right, 599 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 9: So it could be a sped up game, could be 600 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 9: slow down game. They both play defense. I think that's 601 00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 9: two most talented teams, you know, Alabama. I don't think 602 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 9: it makes the score, but I mean you a lot 603 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 9: points on them, like it's gonna be a bath, and 604 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 9: I get to think, pretty get it done. You know, 605 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 9: I would imagine these these these runs by eleven seeds 606 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 9: like NC State, OGN State a couple of years ago, 607 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 9: or B two of them when they were a twelve 608 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 9: seed and the winning tackle was on the hot seat, 609 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 9: and they may delete ith. It eventually sort of ends, 610 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 9: and it ends abruptly a lot of times, and it 611 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 9: feels like today might be that day. And Duke is 612 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 9: just a better team. And the way they pointing out 613 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 9: obviously that the injury the other night helped them out. 614 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 9: But that's sort of what happens in the sport, you know, 615 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 9: like you get breaks. A lot of times you see 616 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 9: teams that end up in the situation to get a break. 617 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 9: And so I do think Duke winn say, I don't 618 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 9: think cover seven though, and everyone's on everyone's gonna do today, 619 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 9: but I like pretty a lot to cover. I think 620 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 9: they win and cover and they continue the trend those 621 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 9: just sort of dominating teams in the tournament Thames Utah has. 622 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 5: You know you're you're kind of beating me to the 623 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 5: punch here, Jeff. 624 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 2: If you look at Purdue minus three and a half 625 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 2: against Tennessee, Duke minus seven and a half against NC State, 626 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,720 Speaker 2: of the four teams in action today, who are you 627 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 2: circling the most in terms of you want to back 628 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 2: them against the spread? 629 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,480 Speaker 9: Well, I think Purdue, right, I mean, I know Tennessee 630 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:36,880 Speaker 9: kind of one of the better players in the country, 631 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 9: but I really think this idea of like on a mission, right, 632 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 9: like we have. They waited there a lot, like in 633 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 9: years I put the sass on a lot about football. 634 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:49,520 Speaker 9: They feel like what the Chiefs sort of were this year, right, 635 00:32:49,560 --> 00:32:51,680 Speaker 9: we sort of Purdue was one of the bet teams 636 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 9: the Chiefs weren't you sort of lay in wait to right, 637 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 9: you wait your entire year for the playoffs, and Purdue 638 00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 9: waited the entire season to get to the tournament. 639 00:32:59,720 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 2: Right. 640 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 9: They weighed this entire way. Okay, guys, you have to 641 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 9: make up for what happened the last couple of years. 642 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 9: We have to get here, right, And they said, well, 643 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 9: you know they could make this Sweet sixteen. Well now 644 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 9: an they'read Oh, they couldn't win it through this twa game. 645 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 9: Well now, I mean they keep blowing teams out and 646 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 9: then the Grambling cover was pretty lucky. But they looked 647 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 9: did we each it for forty fins? They just becme 648 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 9: dagged up by twelve a team that was very hot 649 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 9: and playing good basketball. I think they're just on a 650 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 9: mission right now and they could do so many things 651 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 9: to score. This is I think the part of the 652 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 9: game that we see a lot during this time of year. 653 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,239 Speaker 9: It's like, do you make your threes or not? Right, 654 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 9: Crane didn't make this three, Arizona didn't make this threes. 655 00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:39,680 Speaker 9: Alabama for the first fifteen minutes last night didn't make 656 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 9: any threes. And Purdue can make us three. They can 657 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 9: shooting you know a midilator show. It is shot, just 658 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 9: go inside. That's so important.

I 750 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 2: just look at Tennessee and they're they're defenders along the 751 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:24,240 Speaker 2: perimeter right their guards, the backcourt. They can just get 752 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:28,320 Speaker 2: into you. They can affect passing lanes. 753 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:29,760 Speaker 5: They're just pesky. 754 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 2: And to feed the ball to Edie where he's used 755 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 2: to getting it, I think Tennessee is gonna have some 756 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:40,799 Speaker 2: success making him uncomfortable in terms of when he gets 757 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 2: the ball and where he gets the ball, and so 758 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be. 759 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 5: More of a blinded out game. 760 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 2: If you're looking at one forty seven and a half, 761 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,320 Speaker 2: you start playing games with these numbers where you're thinking, okay, 762 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:56,399 Speaker 2: seventy to sixty five.

That's a fast turnaround for Tennessee and 828 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 2: look Purdue, it's not dramatically different where they played a 829 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:31,160 Speaker 2: little bit earlier the same day, but man for Tennessee 830 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 2: to finish after midnight. Rick Barnes was joking around like, hey, 831 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 2: the game's tomorrow, because technically it was at that time. 832 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 2: I would love to know the records of the teams 833 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,359 Speaker 2: that right like you played on Friday, you played as 834 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:50,800 Speaker 2: the same day as your upcoming opponent, but you finished later, 835 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,400 Speaker 2: right as your opponent did, and then how you fare 836 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 2: the next matchup. But that's a quick turnaround for Tennessee 837 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 2: and a quick turned around to prepare for zach Edian company. 838 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that that would affect maybe more of 839 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 3: maybe more veterans than the kids, you know, like maybe 840 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 3: in sports. After they played professionally for you know, five, six, 841 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,279 Speaker 3: eight years and they get a little bit older, maybe 842 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,919 Speaker 3: into their early thirties, late late twenties, these kids seem 843 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 3: like they can turn around and adjust pretty well. But 844 00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:25,720 Speaker 3: that is a great point. In one of the handicapping points, 845 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:28,520 Speaker 3: someone on my team puts in flying, But that's flying 846 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:33,640 Speaker 3: though flying, you know, West to east is a big thing, 847 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 3: so I'm sure Rich can enlighten us more, but his 848 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:40,759 Speaker 3: professional playing days there too, because I would think that 849 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,720 Speaker 3: is more, like I said, maybe more of the West 850 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 3: coast to east coast kind of trips and being a 851 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,000 Speaker 3: little bit older. But I could be wrong. I mean, 852 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 3: I'm sure it's still in their head a little bit. 853 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 3: Like the coach said, Rich, what can you tell us 854 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:53,680 Speaker 3: about that? 855 00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:56,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean you hit it on the head. 856 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 4: Travel, especially when you're crossing over multiple time zones, can 857 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:05,240 Speaker 4: really have a huge impact on teams. Some players handle 858 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 4: it better than others. But as you know, all takes 859 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 4: is one, right, one of your starting five struggles because 860 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,480 Speaker 4: they're feeling a little tired or jet lagged or whatever 861 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,360 Speaker 4: it may be, didn't have an easy time falling asleep 862 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 4: in a new hotel room, and you can have a 863 00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,880 Speaker 4: very different outcome. And then in terms of the quick turnaround, 864 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 4: you know, youth does help, It absolutely does. But you know, 865 00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 4: ask any young track athlete, you know, when they're running 866 00:44:32,239 --> 00:44:34,759 Speaker 4: multiple events if they like to have a nice little 867 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:38,239 Speaker 4: break in between so they could get mentally prepared and 868 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:41,240 Speaker 4: physically ready for the rigors of the next event. 869 00:44:41,880 --> 00:44:43,520 Speaker 6: You know, it's it's kind of similar. 870 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 4: It's it's it's it all feels like a sprint, right 871 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 4: because you're going complete max effort in all these games, 872 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 4: unless you're sailing to victory, you know, like a Yukon 873 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:59,000 Speaker 4: or a Purdue who's won by double digits the whole way, 874 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,920 Speaker 4: where maybe you could take some minutes off your starter's 875 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 4: legs toward the end of the second half. You really 876 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,480 Speaker 4: have to fight for a win and then turn around 877 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:12,000 Speaker 4: and less than forty eight hours later play another game 878 00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:14,840 Speaker 4: for your life, where it's another max efforts sprint. 879 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 6: It can take a toll on you. 880 00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 4: And what's interesting about the tournament is it's impossible to 881 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 4: play at a fever pitch every minute of every game. 882 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:28,760 Speaker 3: You can't. 883 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 4: You have to manage the emotions. So when you are 884 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 4: on a bump your ride, then for example, the Huskies 885 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 4: or the boiler Makers, you're going with these emotions a 886 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:43,839 Speaker 4: little bit more so Tennessee. In this game, it kind 887 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,799 Speaker 4: of feels like this is going to be the more 888 00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 4: physically spent and emotionally exhausted team, you know, if we're 889 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:54,440 Speaker 4: gonna look at it on a spectrum. Whereas Purdue obviously 890 00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:57,439 Speaker 4: has had better rest and an easier time so far, 891 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,760 Speaker 4: sort of sailing through this tournament up to this point. 892 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, as far as the prop bets go, 893 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,360 Speaker 2: I'm really interested in Fletcher Lawyer. 894 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 5: He's a guard for Purdue. 895 00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 2: And you think about these two teams meeting in the 896 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 2: regular season, Fletcher Lawyer went crazy. He scored twenty seven points, 897 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 2: and he went three for ten from deep right from 898 00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 2: three point territory. But scores twenty seven points, and you, guys, 899 00:46:24,160 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 2: you look at the prop bet market, Fletcher Lawyer's point 900 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:31,800 Speaker 2: total is at nine and a half. So either Vegas 901 00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,320 Speaker 2: is telling you like, we're not buying it the twenty 902 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 2: seven point barrage against Tennessee earlier this season, or they're 903 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,799 Speaker 2: thinking as of late. If you look at the last 904 00:46:41,840 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 2: couple of games, Fletcher Lawyer scored ten points against Gonzaga, 905 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:49,400 Speaker 2: he scored fifteen points against Utah State. He only had 906 00:46:49,440 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 2: eight points against Grambling. Those are the three tournament wins 907 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,919 Speaker 2: for Perdue. But man and even the three pointers it's 908 00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 2: just set at one and a half. You know, he 909 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 2: made three of them ten threes the last time these 910 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:02,839 Speaker 2: two teams met. 911 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 5: So not a lot of not a lot of faith. 912 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 2: I guess from Vegas in the sportsbooks in terms of 913 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:12,840 Speaker 2: Fletcher Lawyer based on what he did against Tennessee earlier 914 00:47:12,960 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 2: this season and what the line is going into this 915 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:16,800 Speaker 2: game in the tournament. 916 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 3: Something tells me that might be one of your props. 917 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 3: Then today it couldn't be crack. 918 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:23,839 Speaker 5: I'm just thinking out loud over No, but what. 919 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,720 Speaker 3: The reasoning and the logic behind what you just said, 920 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:30,799 Speaker 3: especially from earlier in the year to now, and you 921 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 3: actually question it, like why how do they derive at 922 00:47:34,080 --> 00:47:36,400 Speaker 3: that line? You have a pretty you have a good point, 923 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,760 Speaker 3: as you could see Rich. We talk lots of gambling 924 00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:45,120 Speaker 3: on this show. Oh yeah at the beginning. I remember 925 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 3: when when when Scott and Don approached me about you know, 926 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:51,359 Speaker 3: we did like a skype call and all of us 927 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 3: are on there a zoom call, and they were like, 928 00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:55,759 Speaker 3: you know, it's going to be seventy percent h you 929 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,240 Speaker 3: know talking about sports and thirty percent talking about sports betting. 930 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:02,720 Speaker 3: I think our show seventy percent sports betting. Yeah, maybe 931 00:48:02,800 --> 00:48:06,200 Speaker 3: thirty percent sports, but uh, you know, we're all on amirate. 932 00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 3: It's it's so great. I put a tweet up yesterday 933 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 3: on Twitter. It's so great to have guys that actually 934 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 3: bet to talk about betting with, because there's so many 935 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,799 Speaker 3: talking heads out there and sources and uh, you know, 936 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,359 Speaker 3: of course social media people that talk about giving out 937 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,719 Speaker 3: bets and betting that they don't even bet. They don't 938 00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,280 Speaker 3: even know what eleven to ten means. They don't even realize, 939 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:30,879 Speaker 3: you know, they go up to the counter and bet, 940 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 3: give me twenty dollars instead of twenty two dollars. And 941 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 3: I'm not making fun of anybody, by the way. Everyone's 942 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 3: allowed to be green, but you can't act like play 943 00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:42,719 Speaker 3: the role like you're a sports better and and not 944 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:44,879 Speaker 3: bet and then expect people to you know, give out 945 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:47,760 Speaker 3: you know, you give out, give out winners and stuff 946 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 3: and and and they don't even bet, they have no 947 00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:51,560 Speaker 3: skin in the game. But speaking of that, though, that 948 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 3: reminds me something I've I talked to Jeff about this before. Rich. 949 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 3: I'll ask you, being the you know, the Penn State 950 00:48:57,600 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 3: All America and and and and then course a great 951 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:04,399 Speaker 3: successful career in the NFL, let me ask you when 952 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:08,120 Speaker 3: you were in college or even that the pros is 953 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 3: the bigger thing. Did you know did you guys know 954 00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:13,440 Speaker 3: you know you're hey or maybe even use that as 955 00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,919 Speaker 3: a motivational factor. Hey guys, we're eight and a half 956 00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 3: point under dogs today. Let's prove those bookmakers wrong. And 957 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,560 Speaker 3: did you guys use that as motivational factors sometimes? 958 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:23,399 Speaker 6: I never did. 959 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 4: But I many coaches that I played for, did you 960 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 4: know they're obviously uh, you know, the longer you're involved 961 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 4: in a sport, the more you pay attention to all 962 00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,040 Speaker 4: the ancillary things around the sport. 963 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 6: And I think during the course of my career, I 964 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:42,080 Speaker 6: was so obsessed with. 965 00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,239 Speaker 4: You know, honing the craft and you know, kind of 966 00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:48,200 Speaker 4: that one track mind of I just got to get better. 967 00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,520 Speaker 4: I just got to get better. That I blocked out 968 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:53,879 Speaker 4: a lot of the outside noise. So when I got 969 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:57,919 Speaker 4: into broadcast and the first time I started talking any 970 00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:00,640 Speaker 4: sort of betting lines you want to talk about green, 971 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:03,560 Speaker 4: I had no idea what plus and minus meant. I 972 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,439 Speaker 4: had no idea I didn't know what it was looking at. 973 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 4: I mean, it was Greek. It may as well have 974 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 4: been the Greek alphabet.

I just I just 976 00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 4: tried to put the you know, the blinders on and 977 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,600 Speaker 4: just stay in the tunnel. But when you're a coach, 978 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:25,040 Speaker 4: and you know, you're in your forties, you're in your fifties, 979 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,480 Speaker 4: you're in your sixties, and you're at the college level, 980 00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,680 Speaker 4: and you have donors and boosters coming up to you. 981 00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,360 Speaker 3: I'm like, well, I mean, we. 982 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,760 Speaker 4: Gotta beat them by fifteen, right, coach, you know, nudge, nudge, 983 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:38,600 Speaker 4: elbow to the rib cage out of dinner. 984 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 3: I mean, like that. 985 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:43,080 Speaker 4: Stuff happens, you know, And so these coaches become more 986 00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:46,520 Speaker 4: and more aware that like, oh, shoot, not only do 987 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:51,080 Speaker 4: I have to win at this football program or basketball program, 988 00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 4: but I got to hit a number for some of 989 00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:57,720 Speaker 4: these some of these some of these big money donors 990 00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 4: who just gave the program two dollars in nil. 991 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 6: But oh, by the way, they also like a little action. 992 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 4: So when we go and we face the Zags, we 993 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 4: better put them away by seventeen or more. 994 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:10,360 Speaker 3: You know. 995 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 5: Like it's it's that it's that. 996 00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:14,640 Speaker 6: World that these coaches live in. 997 00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 4: So, yeah, there have been To answer your question, Crack, 998 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,960 Speaker 4: there have been plenty of times where a coach has 999 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 4: brought up several times over the course of the week. 1000 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,480 Speaker 4: Hey you know, you look at look at the numbers 1001 00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:29,799 Speaker 4: on this game. Nobody thinks that we can win, and 1002 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 4: then if you paid attention, Vegas would have us as 1003 00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 4: you know, five point underdogs or eight point underdogs, eight 1004 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,960 Speaker 4: and a half point underdogs, And you're like, oh, okay, 1005 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 4: that's what he's talking about. Because people pay attention to 1006 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:45,400 Speaker 4: this stuff, even the ones who are quote unquote not 1007 00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 4: supposed to. 1008 00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 6: You know. 1009 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:50,279 Speaker 2: I'll tell you a quick story where uh, this was 1010 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 2: the twenty fifteen season in the NFL and that was 1011 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:58,360 Speaker 2: when Carolina went fifteen and one. They went to the 1012 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 2: Super Bowl. Tra Yeah, they to the Broncos, but they 1013 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,880 Speaker 2: were really good that season. And they played the Dallas 1014 00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 2: Cowboys on Thanksgiving and earlier in the week, Dallas was 1015 00:52:08,680 --> 00:52:11,520 Speaker 2: favored to win the game and Dallas had a terrible 1016 00:52:11,560 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 2: record that year. They ended up four and twelve, but 1017 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,160 Speaker 2: Dallas was favored by about a point earlier in the week. 1018 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 2: And after the game on Fox Sports Radio, I got 1019 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:23,359 Speaker 2: to interview Josh Norman. It's a really good quarterback yeah 1020 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:24,839 Speaker 2: for Carolina. 1021 00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:24,719 Speaker 5: At the time. 1022 00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I asked him about it and I was like, 1023 00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 2: what did you think about Dallas being favored earlier in 1024 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:32,799 Speaker 2: the week, And he goes, I'll never forget. He goes, 1025 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:41,120 Speaker 2: that was so disrespectful. We were well aware of it. 1026 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 2: And so you think about that today, who would that 1027 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 2: apply to the most? 1028 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:47,680 Speaker 5: It would have to be NC State. 1029 00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 3: NC State. 1030 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,360 Speaker 2: They got to look at this like, we're seven and 1031 00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,799 Speaker 2: a half point underdogs. We've been red hot, we just 1032 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,720 Speaker 2: beat Duke in the ACC Tournament a couple of weeks ago. 1033 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,400 Speaker 5: And now we're seven and a half point dogs. 1034 00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:05,359 Speaker 2: Right, So maybe that factors into today's game, at least 1035 00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 2: going into it. 1036 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 5: It certainly does. 1037 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 3: That's a great story. Yeah, no, that Uh you wonder 1038 00:53:10,560 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 3: if now you wonder if Duke uses that as motivational 1039 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 3: factor though this team upset us. You know, but then again, 1040 00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 3: I don't know how much stock you know, these certain 1041 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,439 Speaker 3: teams put into those conferences. They focus on the big 1042 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 3: Dance a lot. But you know, it's hard to beat 1043 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 3: a team, especially three times throughout the year. 1044 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 10: Uh. 1045 00:53:29,719 --> 00:53:31,799 Speaker 3: One of the one of the greatest basketball handicappers that 1046 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 3: I know, his name is Alan Boston, real sharp guy. 1047 00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 3: He's been a win He work for the sharpest syndicates 1048 00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 3: in the world, Billy Walters for years, and you know 1049 00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:43,799 Speaker 3: he says that he says it's very hard for a 1050 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:48,880 Speaker 3: team to beat a team like three times throughout the seasoners, 1051 00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,960 Speaker 3: it's it's very difficult. Four times it gets to be 1052 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:56,480 Speaker 3: where where you know, they they study so much film 1053 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,480 Speaker 3: on the previous games and the opponents, it's just tougher 1054 00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 3: to beat. But yet that's what a lot of the 1055 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:03,879 Speaker 3: public goes by. Oh they beat them, Oh my god, 1056 00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 3: how can they be getting seven and a half points? 1057 00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 3: They already beat them out right? Oh my god, I 1058 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:10,800 Speaker 3: gotta take NCCT or whatever it may be. The line 1059 00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 3: makers have these lines pretty pretty They really do having 1060 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:17,080 Speaker 3: pretty good this line is speaking of which I'll just 1061 00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:19,440 Speaker 3: talk about that real quick. I know we're going to 1062 00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:21,600 Speaker 3: get to that. But you know, the the Duke line 1063 00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 3: I seen. I was real surprised that there was sixes 1064 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:28,480 Speaker 3: out here in Vegas and sevens in other places. It's 1065 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 3: unusual to see a point difference this time, in this 1066 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 3: time of the year, just sitting there for an extended 1067 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 3: period of time. But anyway, that's a great subject matter today, 1068 00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:44,920 Speaker 3: you guys. Broke brought up great points, Brian with that interview, 1069 00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 3: rich with his experience. I hope people are listening out 1070 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,200 Speaker 3: there because that's very very good stories. 1071 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 4: Before we run, I just have I have one thing 1072 00:54:56,640 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 4: to add to that point about like how it's difficult 1073 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 4: to be a team you know, shoot two times, three times, 1074 00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 4: you know, four times? The way it happens. Sometimes it's 1075 00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:11,759 Speaker 4: it's uh, it's it takes a really good coach to 1076 00:55:12,200 --> 00:55:15,960 Speaker 4: convince a team that there's more to work on after 1077 00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 4: handling an opponent a couple of times. You know, it 1078 00:55:19,000 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 4: takes it takes a coach to be able to turn 1079 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 4: a win into a loss. And what I mean by 1080 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 4: that is the best coaches I ever played for. You know, 1081 00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:30,480 Speaker 4: especially in the NFL, you played division rivals twice and 1082 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 4: then who knows, sometimes you'll see them in the postseason, 1083 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 4: Like it can happen. And when you're playing against a 1084 00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:38,640 Speaker 4: division rival, even if you beat the breaks off that 1085 00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:42,279 Speaker 4: division rival the first time out, well, now you know 1086 00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:44,320 Speaker 4: you get to host them, and so you feel a 1087 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 4: little even more cocky because it's like, well, we're gonna 1088 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 4: have our home fans behind us too, and you know 1089 00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:52,120 Speaker 4: we beat them bad on the road. It's the coaches 1090 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:54,480 Speaker 4: that can put up the low lights, you know what 1091 00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:57,360 Speaker 4: I mean. Literally, we're not gonna be looking at any. 1092 00:55:57,120 --> 00:56:00,399 Speaker 6: Of the scoring plays or the interception that we got 1093 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 6: that ice to game. No no, No, we're gonna be 1094 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:04,320 Speaker 6: putting up We're gonna be putting. 1095 00:56:04,080 --> 00:56:06,880 Speaker 4: Up your worst plays from last game, and we're gonna 1096 00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,000 Speaker 4: work on those, and we're not gonna be talking about 1097 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:09,480 Speaker 4: the victory. 1098 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:12,160 Speaker 6: We're gonna be talking about how talented this opponent is. 1099 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:15,319 Speaker 4: And so that is the task for NC State, even 1100 00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,200 Speaker 4: though they're a dog, and even though they may have 1101 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 4: the edge of whatever you want to call it. Brian, 1102 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:24,319 Speaker 4: like the Bolton board material, brought up the fact that 1103 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:26,680 Speaker 4: seven and a half points the other way is crazy, 1104 00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:30,920 Speaker 4: but you gotta somehow turn those wins into losses if 1105 00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 4: you're the wolf Pack, because if you go in there 1106 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,480 Speaker 4: with an overinflated sense of yourself, this could result in, 1107 00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:39,040 Speaker 4: you know, a bounce before you get to enjoy the 1108 00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:42,800 Speaker 4: fruits of your labor and hoist a Final four banner 1109 00:56:42,840 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 4: or who knows where it goes from there. 1110 00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:48,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, listen, you can't let your confidence turn into laziness. 1111 00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 3: That's exactly that's what. 1112 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:54,600 Speaker 2: We're getting at right where if NC State is confident, 1113 00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:56,480 Speaker 2: that's a good thing. If they're confident to the point 1114 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:58,600 Speaker 2: where they get a little bit lazy and we handled 1115 00:56:58,600 --> 00:57:01,319 Speaker 2: this team before, it can't be that. I think at 1116 00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:05,200 Speaker 2: the Patriots where when they beat the Jets in the 1117 00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:08,640 Speaker 2: regular season, I'll never forget they won forty five to three, 1118 00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 2: Like Wes Welker's going crazy, like they crushed them. 1119 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:13,960 Speaker 5: And then when they met in. 1120 00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 2: The playoffs at Foxborough, that's when the Jets beat them. 1121 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:19,960 Speaker 2: I think it was twenty eight to twenty one. It 1122 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 2: was the Bart Scott manches. 1123 00:57:21,600 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 6: You know, they. 1124 00:57:22,120 --> 00:57:23,440 Speaker 5: Couldn't stop a nose bleed. 1125 00:57:23,840 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 2: They went from losing forty five to three to winning 1126 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 2: against that same team on the road. Like each time 1127 00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,800 Speaker 2: these teams play it can be much much different. 1128 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 5: So that's what I say. 1129 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:40,680 Speaker 4: The twenty eleven season, I was on the team that year. 1130 00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:42,520 Speaker 4: It was brutal, it was heartbreaking. 1131 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 5: You got lazy, right rich Now, I'm just kidding them. 1132 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:47,280 Speaker 3: We got complacent? 1133 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,080 Speaker 2: Yeah no, But that's the thing is you can't let 1134 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:53,280 Speaker 2: confidence turn into laziness, and it can happen that way. 1135 00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:56,200 Speaker 2: I don't think it's gonna happen with NC State as 1136 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:58,920 Speaker 2: an underdog like that. I don't think that's even close 1137 00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:02,160 Speaker 2: to the same thing. But it can happen where you 1138 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 2: get overly confident and you're not worried about, Hey, the 1139 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 2: things you have to do. I'll say this last thing. 1140 00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 2: Jay Wright, the Villanova former basketball coach. 1141 00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 5: He's doing the. 1142 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:19,760 Speaker 2: Studio show with Charles Barkley and Company, and Ernie Johnson 1143 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:22,920 Speaker 2: asked him something where he was like, hey, at halftime, 1144 00:58:22,960 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 2: are you like, guys, we're twenty minutes away from the 1145 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 2: final four. And he said something he was like, I 1146 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 2: would never talk to the guys about what we might accomplish. 1147 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 2: I always talk about the process, what we need to 1148 00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:39,920 Speaker 2: do to put ourselves in a position to accomplish something, right, Ye, 1149 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:43,240 Speaker 2: And so I think that happens sometime is you get 1150 00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:47,080 Speaker 2: so confident you're thinking, you know, hey, we got this, 1151 00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 2: and it goes sideways.

Two fin seven and 1193 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 10: a half, and the money just continues to pour in 1194 01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:04,880 Speaker 10: from the public on NC State. Duke is going to 1195 01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:06,160 Speaker 10: be a big knee for us today. 1196 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 3: Hey wow, Hey Bill Krachenberger, Seamus, I think I told 1197 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:15,520 Speaker 3: you in the past. The only Shamus is I knew. 1198 01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 3: I still know one in my life that I had too. 1199 01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:21,200 Speaker 3: They're multi multizillionaires, so good luck. I just wanted to 1200 01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:24,520 Speaker 3: tell you that first. Yeah, they're very wealthy. So good 1201 01:01:24,560 --> 01:01:26,320 Speaker 3: to see you, Good to see you again. I'm good 1202 01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:28,160 Speaker 3: to hear from me. Let me ask you then, So 1203 01:01:28,280 --> 01:01:31,520 Speaker 3: you guys are I said earlier in the show when 1204 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:34,800 Speaker 3: Rich picked NSI state, you guys are the only seven 1205 01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:37,200 Speaker 3: and a half out there. I'm looking at my dom 1206 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 3: best screen. I don't see I see a six and 1207 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:44,040 Speaker 3: a half minus fifteen. I don't see anything. But yet, 1208 01:01:44,120 --> 01:01:45,960 Speaker 3: you guys are the only seven and a half. Are 1209 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 3: you expecting Duke money to come in towards post time 1210 01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:54,080 Speaker 3: or are you guys just having a side in this game. 1211 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 10: Well, we also have a scam full of all spreads 1212 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,640 Speaker 10: and totals. Yeah, but you have at NC state plus 1213 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:05,000 Speaker 10: seven has at minus won twenty right now, so still 1214 01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:08,440 Speaker 10: holding on there. You can never count out Duke money 1215 01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:12,040 Speaker 10: coming in late. I think we have a view that 1216 01:02:12,520 --> 01:02:15,040 Speaker 10: this money will come in on Duke eventually. I think 1217 01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 10: we're still gonna end up meeting Duke to mainly win 1218 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:22,360 Speaker 10: the game out right futures point of view, and from 1219 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:25,240 Speaker 10: just the money line action point of view, it's still 1220 01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,120 Speaker 10: pretty lop side towards NC State. About seventy four percent 1221 01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:30,440 Speaker 10: of the spread money's coming on and you stayed about 1222 01:02:30,440 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 10: fifty to fifty on the money line there about which 1223 01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:36,160 Speaker 10: that plus two to fifty money line up. We're gonna 1224 01:02:36,160 --> 01:02:36,520 Speaker 10: need dukes? 1225 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 3: Wow wow wow, Yeah, that's surprising. 1226 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:42,600 Speaker 6: A lot of the books are moving towards Duke. 1227 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:45,320 Speaker 4: But yeah, you know, Look, that's what I love about 1228 01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:48,200 Speaker 4: this is, you know, the book to book person in person, 1229 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:51,840 Speaker 4: there's a different experience depending on the game or the 1230 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:55,360 Speaker 4: time of year, and March Madness is obviously one of 1231 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:56,000 Speaker 4: those times. 1232 01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 6: The March Tournament is variable. 1233 01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:01,800 Speaker 4: Speaking of which, when you guys start looking at the variables, 1234 01:03:01,840 --> 01:03:04,160 Speaker 4: and Bino brought this up yesterday a little bit. 1235 01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 6: We were chatting about it this morning. 1236 01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:08,200 Speaker 4: I can't remember if we asked about this. 1237 01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:09,240 Speaker 6: Yesterday, but I was. 1238 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:12,880 Speaker 4: I was curious if, like, if a team that has 1239 01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:17,880 Speaker 4: a shorter turnaround than their opponent, like Tennessee, so they 1240 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:21,840 Speaker 4: have a later finish and now an early start against 1241 01:03:21,840 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 4: a Purdue team who's had more rest from their last 1242 01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 4: appointment in the tournament till now? Can that affect the 1243 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:33,520 Speaker 4: spread like or even the point total? Does that ever 1244 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:37,960 Speaker 4: get weighed and balanced when you're starting to handicap these games. 1245 01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:41,120 Speaker 10: Sure, there's a ton of angles you can look at, 1246 01:03:41,160 --> 01:03:44,400 Speaker 10: whether it is rest in early start time. I think 1247 01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:47,479 Speaker 10: a lot of these earlier starts on a neutral court, 1248 01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:49,680 Speaker 10: we tend to see a lot of people take an 1249 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:53,400 Speaker 10: angle on taking the under in those games. But we 1250 01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 10: traded the same way. We trade any game, we hang 1251 01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:57,960 Speaker 10: a number, we see what sharp money comes and tells 1252 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:00,640 Speaker 10: us where the line's gonna go. Right now, it's really 1253 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,480 Speaker 10: stuck at that and a three and a half two 1254 01:04:03,520 --> 01:04:05,240 Speaker 10: and a half number. We're sitting at three and a 1255 01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 10: half right now, and it's a lot of pre new 1256 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,720 Speaker 10: money coming in. So either there are definitely some people 1257 01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:13,000 Speaker 10: who probably are taking that angle, but it looks like 1258 01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:15,040 Speaker 10: the public two is aligned on Purdue. 1259 01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:15,280 Speaker 9: Here. 1260 01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,840 Speaker 2: He's Seamous McGee from bet MGM joining us here on 1261 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,800 Speaker 2: campdown to tip off. I still go back to your 1262 01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:24,360 Speaker 2: quote of we're really gonna need Duke today. 1263 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:28,320 Speaker 5: You know again, it's like an out of body experience. 1264 01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:31,920 Speaker 2: But if you walk us through NC State in the 1265 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:36,560 Speaker 2: tournament with the three previous game, Seamus, can you paint 1266 01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:40,880 Speaker 2: a picture, where are they just now turning into the public. 1267 01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:42,920 Speaker 5: Team where it's like they just took down Marquette. 1268 01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:46,280 Speaker 2: Okay, it's NC State too many points, let's go with 1269 01:04:46,360 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 2: the wolf Pack here? Or had they been backed before 1270 01:04:50,480 --> 01:04:53,000 Speaker 2: this this game against Duke today? 1271 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:58,360 Speaker 10: So we launched North Carolina this very first day of 1272 01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:01,280 Speaker 10: the ACC tournament, and I can tell you right now 1273 01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:04,640 Speaker 10: and that NC State is a much more popular team 1274 01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:07,320 Speaker 10: to bet on than duke is. I don't know if 1275 01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:09,440 Speaker 10: it's duke hate. Maybe it's just a lot of people 1276 01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:11,280 Speaker 10: go there in state, they stick around, a lot of 1277 01:05:11,320 --> 01:05:12,160 Speaker 10: duke people out. 1278 01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 9: Of state and leave. 1279 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:18,000 Speaker 10: But ever since the ACT Tournament, it's just been a 1280 01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:21,000 Speaker 10: lot of NC State money coming in. And as a 1281 01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:23,680 Speaker 10: Virginia fan, they shouldn't even be in this tournament because 1282 01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:26,560 Speaker 10: we couldn't hit free throws in our semi final game 1283 01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 10: against MC State. So it's a little crazy to see 1284 01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:32,440 Speaker 10: them just now in the Elite eight. And so I 1285 01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:35,400 Speaker 10: think it's a perfect storm where you got this new state, 1286 01:05:35,480 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 10: North Carolina, where you know, the first legal betting is 1287 01:05:39,800 --> 01:05:43,760 Speaker 10: there for the first time ever, and they have a 1288 01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:46,880 Speaker 10: hometown team, and then nationally this is the Cinderella team, 1289 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:49,320 Speaker 10: and people definitely don't want to miss out on betting 1290 01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:49,960 Speaker 10: on the Cinderella. 1291 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:53,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, betting down there in the Bible Belt. I didn't 1292 01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:54,880 Speaker 3: know how it was going to take off, But I 1293 01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:58,000 Speaker 3: have friends that I have friends that live down there 1294 01:05:58,040 --> 01:06:01,760 Speaker 3: and they couldn't wait for this to go legal. Uh 1295 01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:05,440 Speaker 3: down there include including mister schwartz By guy, he couldn't 1296 01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:08,680 Speaker 3: wait living in Charlotte. But uh, let me ask you 1297 01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,240 Speaker 3: you're you're talking about That was surprising, by the way, 1298 01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:14,240 Speaker 3: because listen, Duke is a very popular team down there. 1299 01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,760 Speaker 3: I actually lived in Raleigh for a while, so Duke 1300 01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:20,600 Speaker 3: is like, that's U n C. Or you don't really 1301 01:06:20,600 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 3: talk about even though I lived in Raleigh. Where in 1302 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:25,760 Speaker 3: state is you don't really talk You talk Duke U 1303 01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:28,320 Speaker 3: n C. And of course when when, of course Jimmy 1304 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:30,360 Speaker 3: V when he was there when NC state, But you 1305 01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:33,360 Speaker 3: really don't talk about that lately. Now. That actually surprises 1306 01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:36,480 Speaker 3: me hearing that how much they're they're that much of 1307 01:06:36,880 --> 01:06:40,160 Speaker 3: a volume place. Now do you guys, this is an 1308 01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:43,120 Speaker 3: interesting question that I should know, but I don't in 1309 01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:45,960 Speaker 3: each individual market. Do you have the same line across 1310 01:06:46,040 --> 01:06:49,960 Speaker 3: the country or will it be uh you could adjust 1311 01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:52,400 Speaker 3: per state. I don't think it's that, but you're gonna 1312 01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:53,400 Speaker 3: answer that for us. 1313 01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:56,320 Speaker 10: Yeah, it's the same. It's the same everywhere. 1314 01:06:56,880 --> 01:07:00,000 Speaker 3: No state is any difference, right right, right? 1315 01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:06,120 Speaker 10: I was you know, uh an outright in like New Jersey, say, uh, say, 1316 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:08,560 Speaker 10: Seaton Hall was really really good this year and they 1317 01:07:08,560 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 10: were something like ten to one doing the air, right, 1318 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:12,520 Speaker 10: you can't battle seat the Hall to in the tournament 1319 01:07:12,560 --> 01:07:15,120 Speaker 10: in New Jersey so correct we pay out that market 1320 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 10: is if Seaton Hall wins the tournament, we pay off 1321 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,400 Speaker 10: the runner up. So that's when you'll see the odds fluctuate. 1322 01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:24,840 Speaker 3: Okay, so you'll actually word it where maybe a tournament 1323 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,440 Speaker 3: with with without Seaton Hall is the win like you'll, 1324 01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:29,600 Speaker 3: you'll you would have worded that in the betting. So 1325 01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:33,440 Speaker 3: you still do have future betting minus the teams that 1326 01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:36,360 Speaker 3: aren't you're not allowed to wager on in that state 1327 01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:37,400 Speaker 3: in college? Is that right? 1328 01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:38,320 Speaker 9: Yeah? 1329 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:42,320 Speaker 10: Exactly, Well listed in our house rules, which you should 1330 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:45,680 Speaker 10: definitely read if you're ever unsure about how you're gonna write, 1331 01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:46,840 Speaker 10: how that's going to. 1332 01:07:46,840 --> 01:07:49,720 Speaker 3: Be settled, Seamus, have you had any days this year? 1333 01:07:50,040 --> 01:07:52,520 Speaker 3: You know in town here in Las Vegas where I live, 1334 01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:55,240 Speaker 3: we had some operators doing a little bit of crying. 1335 01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:55,840 Speaker 9: Uh. 1336 01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:58,320 Speaker 3: Have you had these kind of days where you've actually 1337 01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:02,120 Speaker 3: had upside down days this this tournament and during this 1338 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:05,800 Speaker 3: tournament at all, especially that big day last week when 1339 01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:07,000 Speaker 3: when all the favorites won. 1340 01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:10,600 Speaker 10: Yeah, Saturday last wetter than blood Baths. 1341 01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:12,560 Speaker 3: Wow, that was blood Baths. 1342 01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:15,520 Speaker 10: I was kind of nervous the whole week because last 1343 01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:18,559 Speaker 10: year first weekend, I don't think we had a game 1344 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,160 Speaker 10: that didn't go our way. So this year, the week 1345 01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:22,800 Speaker 10: leading up to it, I was worried if there was 1346 01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:25,280 Speaker 10: gonna be a little regression. You know, it's not that 1347 01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:27,960 Speaker 10: you're not going to get many tournaments where everything goes 1348 01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 10: your way. So I'm worried there's gonna be a day 1349 01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:31,559 Speaker 10: where you know it's not going to be great. And 1350 01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:35,200 Speaker 10: it's a massive, massive betting weekend. I think I said 1351 01:08:35,280 --> 01:08:37,240 Speaker 10: yesterday I saw it was the big for the best 1352 01:08:37,240 --> 01:08:40,519 Speaker 10: public betting week in the tournament instead of the seventh. 1353 01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:44,439 Speaker 10: So Saturday was definitely an upside down day. The first 1354 01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:47,960 Speaker 10: two days of the Sweet sixteen, we definitely had good days. 1355 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:49,320 Speaker 11: Black Night it was. 1356 01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 10: Just about break even. Yukon was a really popular bet 1357 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:53,560 Speaker 10: and a lot of Alabama. 1358 01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:54,040 Speaker 9: Money came in late. 1359 01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:54,679 Speaker 3: Wow. 1360 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,519 Speaker 10: So not bad but not great. 1361 01:08:57,880 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 3: Uh. 1362 01:08:58,240 --> 01:08:59,960 Speaker 10: So we'll see if we can get a result. 1363 01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:02,160 Speaker 6: Today, Yeah, Seamus. 1364 01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:06,360 Speaker 4: Uh this Yukon line, I'm already looking at it on 1365 01:09:06,439 --> 01:09:09,840 Speaker 4: bet MGM on the website.

I don't know if it's 1472 01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:35,080 Speaker 2: ever confirmed that they're racing on the highway and it 1473 01:14:35,160 --> 01:14:39,040 Speaker 2: led to a death, led to two deaths, a former 1474 01:14:39,080 --> 01:14:42,280 Speaker 2: teammate and a staffer, and it's like, we got to 1475 01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:44,479 Speaker 2: stop doing that, man, it's not gonna end well. 1476 01:14:44,720 --> 01:14:48,759 Speaker 4: A lot of times, yeah, the sport of football tracks 1477 01:14:49,000 --> 01:14:53,000 Speaker 4: a certain personality type, and I think it being a 1478 01:14:53,200 --> 01:14:57,800 Speaker 4: risky proposition in the first place to play, to play 1479 01:14:57,840 --> 01:14:59,599 Speaker 4: a sport like that.

It 1484 01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:19,000 Speaker 4: appears to be one of those things that has happened 1485 01:15:19,080 --> 01:15:21,960 Speaker 4: multiple times. I agree with you. It's it's easy from 1486 01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:26,680 Speaker 4: the perspective of, you know, being a retired player with 1487 01:15:26,840 --> 01:15:31,040 Speaker 4: kids now and having you know, time to to think 1488 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:34,200 Speaker 4: about you know, oh geez, you know, the better decisions 1489 01:15:34,200 --> 01:15:36,240 Speaker 4: could have been made.

And you can get caught up into 1492 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:49,200 Speaker 4: some stuff because you have that risk taking energy. It's 1493 01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:52,800 Speaker 4: so yeah, it's it's dumb, it's not good, it's senseless. 1494 01:15:52,920 --> 01:15:55,320 Speaker 4: And I hope that I hope that there are people 1495 01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:57,360 Speaker 4: surrounding him as a player that can get him on 1496 01:15:57,439 --> 01:15:58,040 Speaker 4: the right path. 1497 01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 5: Yeah no, well said right there. 1498 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:03,000 Speaker 2: I'll just say real fast is And I'm not putting 1499 01:16:03,040 --> 01:16:06,000 Speaker 2: words in your mouth rich where It's one thing to 1500 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:10,439 Speaker 2: be an adrenaline junkie in your arena if you're a 1501 01:16:10,439 --> 01:16:13,040 Speaker 2: football player and in the football stadium, great, but you 1502 01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:16,120 Speaker 2: can't go on the highway.

His point totals at nine 1555 01:18:53,840 --> 01:18:57,360 Speaker 2: and a half.

He had three of 1563 01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:16,559 Speaker 2: them in the regular season, so I think he's gonna 1564 01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 2: have a handful of attempts today. He's a knockdown shooter. 1565 01:19:20,280 --> 01:19:23,320 Speaker 2: He shoots it at a forty five percent clip.

But it'll 1628 01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:23,960 Speaker 3: be interesting, maybe maybe an opportunity for a live wager 1629 01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:25,360 Speaker 3: to see what you have to of course, you have 1630 01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:27,519 Speaker 3: to see what's going on in the game. You have 1631 01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:33,040 Speaker 3: to know that that probably the books will be skewed 1632 01:22:33,640 --> 01:22:36,479 Speaker 3: towards the Duke line where you're pay a little bit 1633 01:22:36,520 --> 01:22:39,360 Speaker 3: of a tax if you're going to wager on Duke live. 1634 01:22:39,439 --> 01:22:42,840 Speaker 3: But maybe not, maybe not because they may have to 1635 01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:45,759 Speaker 3: get off a position like he said, Like Seamus said, 1636 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:48,840 Speaker 3: they have some futures on Duke, so that gets put 1637 01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:51,360 Speaker 3: into the equation too, with only a couple of games 1638 01:22:51,439 --> 01:22:55,920 Speaker 3: left until that victor is decided. So sometimes you may 1639 01:22:56,040 --> 01:23:00,040 Speaker 3: find some low hanging fruit at a sports book that 1640 01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:00,720 Speaker 3: has that. 1641 01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:01,599 Speaker 10: Uh. 1642 01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:04,400 Speaker 3: You know that those futures on a team like Duke, 1643 01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:07,040 Speaker 3: so you might find something on Duke. It's always good. 1644 01:23:07,400 --> 01:23:09,880 Speaker 3: I do a lot of market handicapping. What that means 1645 01:23:09,960 --> 01:23:11,760 Speaker 3: is you don't have to know anything You don't have 1646 01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:13,679 Speaker 3: to know the color of the team that they wearing, 1647 01:23:13,920 --> 01:23:15,880 Speaker 3: what color they're wearing. You don't have to know the 1648 01:23:15,920 --> 01:23:18,000 Speaker 3: mascot is. You don't have to know a single player 1649 01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:21,360 Speaker 3: on the team. All you know is a B, C, 1650 01:23:21,640 --> 01:23:23,600 Speaker 3: and D books. You put them all up together on 1651 01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:27,599 Speaker 3: my screens. Your market handicap towards the slower moving book 1652 01:23:27,600 --> 01:23:30,680 Speaker 3: compared to the Sharper book. And that may be a 1653 01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:34,479 Speaker 3: situation to today. Uh, now that we're hearing bet MGM 1654 01:23:34,520 --> 01:23:37,240 Speaker 3: has that risk on on the duke side. So we'll 1655 01:23:37,280 --> 01:23:40,120 Speaker 3: we'll see what uh, we'll see what happens, see with transpires. 1656 01:23:40,200 --> 01:23:44,559 Speaker 3: But it's it's so interesting when you hear the head 1657 01:23:44,560 --> 01:23:47,120 Speaker 3: of risk or someone on risk saying, hey man, this 1658 01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:49,519 Speaker 3: NC State, everyone is, this is this is a public 1659 01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:51,960 Speaker 3: team today. I like to be on the bookmaker side, 1660 01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:54,519 Speaker 3: but I have no real uh, no real side in 1661 01:23:54,520 --> 01:23:56,599 Speaker 3: that duke game right now. Yeah. 1662 01:23:56,680 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 4: You know what's interesting, you know from listening to Crack 1663 01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:03,519 Speaker 4: talk about you know, the Sharper books versus some of 1664 01:24:03,560 --> 01:24:07,559 Speaker 4: the slower books and what we've seen, especially with some 1665 01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:11,200 Speaker 4: of these these recent matchups and Yukon, Like what do 1666 01:24:11,240 --> 01:24:12,200 Speaker 4: you do with a Yukon? 1667 01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:15,719 Speaker 3: Really? What do you do with a NC state. 1668 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:18,599 Speaker 4: It almost feels like you couldn't put the number high 1669 01:24:18,720 --> 01:24:22,559 Speaker 4: enough on Duke to get people off of NC State, 1670 01:24:23,280 --> 01:24:26,920 Speaker 4: and vice versa for Connecticut. It's like you couldn't put 1671 01:24:26,920 --> 01:24:29,479 Speaker 4: a high enough number on there for people to stay 1672 01:24:29,479 --> 01:24:32,800 Speaker 4: off of Yukon, which I don't know if you want 1673 01:24:32,840 --> 01:24:37,080 Speaker 4: that level of exposure unless it's a sure thing, but 1674 01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:40,639 Speaker 4: it's just crazy. It just feels like people have fallen 1675 01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:45,439 Speaker 4: in love with sides here and I'm no different. We 1676 01:24:46,080 --> 01:24:48,000 Speaker 4: talked about this in our one of the show. I 1677 01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:52,000 Speaker 4: look at Yukon and it almost feels like you can't 1678 01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:55,160 Speaker 4: put a high enough number on the Huskies to scare 1679 01:24:55,200 --> 01:24:57,439 Speaker 4: me off of them right now because of how dominant 1680 01:24:57,439 --> 01:24:58,280 Speaker 4: they've looked. 1681 01:24:58,840 --> 01:24:59,880 Speaker 6: And likewise with then. 1682 01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:03,280 Speaker 4: And this is more of betting with your heart instead 1683 01:25:03,280 --> 01:25:06,400 Speaker 4: of your brain. But maybe it's just the desire of 1684 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:09,200 Speaker 4: wanting to see them slay the dragon, wanting to see 1685 01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:13,120 Speaker 4: them advance. But that's just a fun story that people 1686 01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:17,320 Speaker 4: are attracted to. And so yeah, I bet MGM, and 1687 01:25:17,439 --> 01:25:20,800 Speaker 4: probably either every other book in Vegas needs Duke to win, 1688 01:25:20,920 --> 01:25:24,720 Speaker 4: because if they don't, like you said, Crack, it's the 1689 01:25:24,800 --> 01:25:27,240 Speaker 4: books will always win in then Vegas will always win 1690 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:30,880 Speaker 4: in then, but in isolated momentents in the vacuum, you'll 1691 01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:34,400 Speaker 4: get some wins. You'll get the public to take down 1692 01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:36,679 Speaker 4: a book for a weekend or a couple of weekends 1693 01:25:36,720 --> 01:25:37,160 Speaker 4: in a row. 1694 01:25:37,720 --> 01:25:40,240 Speaker 2: I think what's interesting too, is when you look at 1695 01:25:40,240 --> 01:25:43,720 Speaker 2: a point spread, take Duke favored by seven and a 1696 01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:48,040 Speaker 2: half today, you might automatically think, oh, well, you gotta 1697 01:25:48,040 --> 01:25:51,559 Speaker 2: pay this Duke tax, right, a very public team seven 1698 01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:55,719 Speaker 2: and a half. But what stands out is you're probably 1699 01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:58,720 Speaker 2: paying an NC State tax. You know, just because the 1700 01:25:58,760 --> 01:26:01,840 Speaker 2: line is seven and a half, This line could easily 1701 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:06,320 Speaker 2: easily be eight and a half even higher. But NC 1702 01:26:06,479 --> 01:26:09,120 Speaker 2: State has been on this crazy hot streak. They've won 1703 01:26:09,280 --> 01:26:12,720 Speaker 2: eight in a row, they won the ACC Tournament, they 1704 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:15,559 Speaker 2: won their three games in the NC Double A tournament 1705 01:26:15,640 --> 01:26:18,680 Speaker 2: so far. The crazy thing we talked to Seamus they 1706 01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:21,600 Speaker 2: shouldn't even be here, and make sure you hear what 1707 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:25,280 Speaker 2: I'm saying. Where they They were losing by three points 1708 01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:30,040 Speaker 2: against Virginia in the ACC Tournament. Virginia missed the front 1709 01:26:30,120 --> 01:26:33,479 Speaker 2: end of one in one with five seconds to go, 1710 01:26:34,040 --> 01:26:38,040 Speaker 2: they make one free throw. NC State isn't even in 1711 01:26:38,439 --> 01:26:41,320 Speaker 2: the NC Double A tournament. And oh, by the way, 1712 01:26:41,880 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 2: why Virginia doesn't foul in the last five seconds is 1713 01:26:45,200 --> 01:26:47,960 Speaker 2: beyond me. NC State has to go the full length 1714 01:26:48,000 --> 01:26:51,360 Speaker 2: of the court to hoist a shot up at the buzzer. 1715 01:26:51,960 --> 01:26:57,160 Speaker 2: Virginia had three team fouls. They could have given three 1716 01:26:57,360 --> 01:27:01,880 Speaker 2: fouls with no free throws. Being god, that was another 1717 01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:05,000 Speaker 2: basketball crime right there. But the point is NC State 1718 01:27:05,240 --> 01:27:08,320 Speaker 2: shouldn't even be in the NCAA tournament. They hit the 1719 01:27:08,360 --> 01:27:10,880 Speaker 2: shot at the buzzer they want in overtime and the 1720 01:27:10,920 --> 01:27:13,880 Speaker 2: ACC tournament. The rest is history leading up to the 1721 01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:16,800 Speaker 2: here and now. But the point is, don't just look 1722 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:20,040 Speaker 2: at a point spread and say, wow, Duke favored by 1723 01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:22,400 Speaker 2: seven and a half. Here we go again with Duke 1724 01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:25,720 Speaker 2: and all this money. Sometimes you're assuming the wrong thing 1725 01:27:25,800 --> 01:27:30,280 Speaker 2: where you're actually paying an NC State tax because they've 1726 01:27:30,280 --> 01:27:33,400 Speaker 2: been so hot, this line could be higher, no doubt 1727 01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:33,760 Speaker 2: about it. 1728 01:27:33,960 --> 01:27:35,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, you bring up a really good point there, and 1729 01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:38,160 Speaker 3: also you're right, it's just so crazy to think that 1730 01:27:38,640 --> 01:27:41,280 Speaker 3: NC State wouldn't even even made it here, like Seamus said, 1731 01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:44,840 Speaker 3: like you said, if Virginia could just made one of 1732 01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:47,479 Speaker 3: the last of five free throws in the last minute, 1733 01:27:47,680 --> 01:27:51,520 Speaker 3: just one of five, so lots of mistakes for experienced 1734 01:27:51,560 --> 01:27:53,720 Speaker 3: coach there too. I'm surprised, but you know, anything can 1735 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:55,679 Speaker 3: happen when you have these kids on the floor too. 1736 01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:59,080 Speaker 3: This wolf Pack run is really reminiscent of the great 1737 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:02,679 Speaker 3: Jimi Valvenalds miracle back in nineteen eighty three. That team 1738 01:28:02,720 --> 01:28:04,880 Speaker 3: also needed to win the ACC tournament to make the 1739 01:28:04,880 --> 01:28:07,519 Speaker 3: Big Dance. It's a really great story, but I do 1740 01:28:07,600 --> 01:28:09,479 Speaker 3: think it comes to an end today. By the way, 1741 01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:11,720 Speaker 3: I'm not saying Duke's gonna cover, but I think it 1742 01:28:11,720 --> 01:28:15,160 Speaker 3: does come to an end today. You know, I've heard, 1743 01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:17,479 Speaker 3: by the way, I've heard all season about how this 1744 01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:20,040 Speaker 3: was a down year for the ACC, but this tournament 1745 01:28:20,520 --> 01:28:23,479 Speaker 3: has proved that. You know, they were probably the best 1746 01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:27,720 Speaker 3: overall conference this year and probably should have had Wake 1747 01:28:27,840 --> 01:28:31,400 Speaker 3: Forest in Pittsburgh even in this tournament. So, you know, 1748 01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:33,919 Speaker 3: as much as I would like to see an underdog, 1749 01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:38,240 Speaker 3: and I'm always rooting for the underdogs to continue NC State, 1750 01:28:38,560 --> 01:28:40,720 Speaker 3: I just think Duke has more talent and they win 1751 01:28:40,760 --> 01:28:41,120 Speaker 3: the game. 1752 01:28:41,720 --> 01:28:44,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, you look at some of the teams in the 1753 01:28:44,520 --> 01:28:47,760 Speaker 4: past who have done the miracle run thing, like the 1754 01:28:47,880 --> 01:28:51,360 Speaker 4: Huskies in twenty eleven, where they got in We've talked 1755 01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:55,000 Speaker 4: about this, I think a couple of weeks ago when 1756 01:28:55,600 --> 01:28:58,639 Speaker 4: NC State was still a burgeoning success in the tournament, 1757 01:28:58,680 --> 01:29:00,559 Speaker 4: where it was like, well, you know, I'm maybe they 1758 01:29:00,560 --> 01:29:01,400 Speaker 4: could go on a run. 1759 01:29:01,439 --> 01:29:02,360 Speaker 6: Maybe it's possible. 1760 01:29:02,439 --> 01:29:06,439 Speaker 4: You know, you win the conference championship, you get the 1761 01:29:06,479 --> 01:29:09,800 Speaker 4: auto bid, and they're barely a top fifty team when 1762 01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:13,280 Speaker 4: you look at the analytics. But well, the hungry Huskies, 1763 01:29:13,360 --> 01:29:16,400 Speaker 4: they weren't. They weren't an offensive juggernaut. In fact, that 1764 01:29:16,920 --> 01:29:19,840 Speaker 4: if you looked at the statistical or should say, the 1765 01:29:19,920 --> 01:29:24,559 Speaker 4: quality of their statistical achievements in that in that twenty 1766 01:29:24,680 --> 01:29:27,519 Speaker 4: ten to twenty eleven season, they. 1767 01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:29,920 Speaker 6: Had no business winning a national championship. 1768 01:29:30,400 --> 01:29:33,320 Speaker 4: And so yeah, whether you get in on a lucky 1769 01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:39,080 Speaker 4: bounce or poor performance in in situational basketball by Virginia, 1770 01:29:39,400 --> 01:29:42,719 Speaker 4: or you know, maybe even survive in advance a couple 1771 01:29:42,800 --> 01:29:46,240 Speaker 4: of you know, last second moments here or there that 1772 01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:49,719 Speaker 4: gives the wolf Pack an edge, it doesn't matter because 1773 01:29:49,760 --> 01:29:51,759 Speaker 4: at the end of the day, it's wins and losses. 1774 01:29:51,960 --> 01:29:54,920 Speaker 6: You know, we know, none of these teams are going 1775 01:29:55,000 --> 01:29:55,160 Speaker 6: to be. 1776 01:29:55,200 --> 01:29:58,720 Speaker 4: Judged by how good they look winning games, just as 1777 01:29:58,760 --> 01:30:01,320 Speaker 4: long as they win them, you know, So in a 1778 01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:03,880 Speaker 4: situation like this where you have the public pullem for 1779 01:30:04,080 --> 01:30:07,240 Speaker 4: Cinderella and I we call them a Cinderella because there 1780 01:30:07,240 --> 01:30:13,120 Speaker 4: are eleven seed it really does it bodes well that 1781 01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:18,080 Speaker 4: you can you can take the points. And also with that, 1782 01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:23,120 Speaker 4: remember Duke's most recent loss to the wolf Pack, Like 1783 01:30:23,160 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 4: that's kind of I mean for me, it's kind of 1784 01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:28,040 Speaker 4: like a nice, neat little package. It's like, oh, okay, 1785 01:30:28,120 --> 01:30:30,280 Speaker 4: I could get the Wolfpack plus seven and a half. 1786 01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:34,640 Speaker 4: And also remember, like within very recent memory, remember what 1787 01:30:34,760 --> 01:30:37,639 Speaker 4: they look like beating this team that I'm getting seven 1788 01:30:37,640 --> 01:30:39,880 Speaker 4: and a half points on a platter. I don't know, 1789 01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:44,080 Speaker 4: it just feels good. I feel very I feel I 1790 01:30:44,160 --> 01:30:48,400 Speaker 4: obviously I feel like a novice really rooting this hard 1791 01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:51,160 Speaker 4: for the wolf Pack, but it just it feels right. 1792 01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:54,640 Speaker 6: It feels it feels like a very march. 1793 01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:57,800 Speaker 4: Bet, like this is maybe I'm a sucker, but I'll 1794 01:30:57,800 --> 01:30:59,400 Speaker 4: go down being a sucker on this one. 1795 01:30:59,640 --> 01:31:02,559 Speaker 3: Well you're not a sucker, though. That's it's fun to 1796 01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:05,760 Speaker 3: root for, you know, Cinderella or America's team or something 1797 01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:06,080 Speaker 3: like that. 1798 01:31:06,120 --> 01:31:08,479 Speaker 5: So yeah, yeah, yeah, no, you're good. 1799 01:31:08,479 --> 01:31:08,679 Speaker 3: Crack. 1800 01:31:08,760 --> 01:31:10,559 Speaker 2: I was just gonna say, we go from feeling good 1801 01:31:10,560 --> 01:31:13,800 Speaker 2: to feeling bad if you will where I'm. 1802 01:31:13,600 --> 01:31:15,240 Speaker 5: Going back to the prop bet market. 1803 01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:17,760 Speaker 2: If you look at NC State in terms of the 1804 01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:23,719 Speaker 2: rebounding props, Mohammad Diara has been a human vacuum cleaner. 1805 01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:28,400 Speaker 2: He had fifteen rebounds in NC State's last game. His 1806 01:31:28,680 --> 01:31:31,800 Speaker 2: prop bet is eleven and a half and it's just 1807 01:31:32,520 --> 01:31:37,200 Speaker 2: barely juiced to the under. And this dude is fasting 1808 01:31:37,960 --> 01:31:41,200 Speaker 2: due to Ramadon right now. It's amazing what he's doing 1809 01:31:41,479 --> 01:31:43,640 Speaker 2: on like not a full belly, you know that, not 1810 01:31:43,680 --> 01:31:46,280 Speaker 2: a full tank, and he's still crushing it on the glass. 1811 01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:49,800 Speaker 2: But this is where it gets to feeling bad, where 1812 01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:53,599 Speaker 2: if you look at some of the other players from 1813 01:31:53,680 --> 01:31:56,839 Speaker 2: NC State there rebounding numbers are much lower. 1814 01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:58,640 Speaker 5: But the juice is really interesting. 1815 01:31:58,720 --> 01:32:02,320 Speaker 2: Where DJ Earns the big man, it's at four and 1816 01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:05,559 Speaker 2: a half and it's slightly juice to the under. You 1817 01:32:05,600 --> 01:32:08,680 Speaker 2: just have to pay attax to take the under a 1818 01:32:08,720 --> 01:32:12,479 Speaker 2: guard crack like DJ Horn it's at four and a half. 1819 01:32:12,560 --> 01:32:15,240 Speaker 2: But this is where the question comes into play. It's 1820 01:32:15,400 --> 01:32:17,599 Speaker 2: juice to minus one p eighty five. 1821 01:32:18,120 --> 01:32:18,320 Speaker 10: Wow. 1822 01:32:18,400 --> 01:32:20,479 Speaker 2: Right, So if you're looking at the prop bet market 1823 01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:24,440 Speaker 2: as a whole and whether it's points assists rebounds, combos, 1824 01:32:24,479 --> 01:32:28,760 Speaker 2: whatever you have right there is there a point that 1825 01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:31,439 Speaker 2: you would get to typically where you say it's just 1826 01:32:31,479 --> 01:32:33,559 Speaker 2: too much juice, it's too much of attax. 1827 01:32:33,640 --> 01:32:34,959 Speaker 5: I'm not interested in anymore. 1828 01:32:35,640 --> 01:32:38,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, the lower the number on something. So 1829 01:32:38,200 --> 01:32:40,639 Speaker 3: if it's a you know, not a main player or something, 1830 01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:43,439 Speaker 3: and they have like whatever rebounds over two and a 1831 01:32:43,479 --> 01:32:47,599 Speaker 3: half to the lower the number, the more I'm willing 1832 01:32:47,640 --> 01:32:51,960 Speaker 3: to bet the juice on the you know, laymore extra 1833 01:32:52,040 --> 01:32:55,840 Speaker 3: juice only because you know, something that's higher. If someone 1834 01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:59,000 Speaker 3: has like points rebounds assists at twenty five compared to 1835 01:32:59,040 --> 01:33:02,360 Speaker 3: someone that has you know, thirteen or even less than that, 1836 01:33:02,960 --> 01:33:06,080 Speaker 3: I'm willing to maybe lay some juice on the lower 1837 01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:10,760 Speaker 3: numbers because it's likely to more land on a low 1838 01:33:10,800 --> 01:33:12,720 Speaker 3: player than it is a high player, which we're with 1839 01:33:12,880 --> 01:33:15,680 Speaker 3: more variants. Would you know, maybe go over by three 1840 01:33:15,760 --> 01:33:17,840 Speaker 3: or four or five or six where it's more likely 1841 01:33:17,920 --> 01:33:22,120 Speaker 3: to land the lower the number. But I typically don't 1842 01:33:22,200 --> 01:33:25,760 Speaker 3: like laying like a one eighty five. Oh god, it 1843 01:33:25,960 --> 01:33:29,519 Speaker 3: just sounds so ugly, only because now I have to 1844 01:33:29,600 --> 01:33:33,240 Speaker 3: win two units to get my money back on something. 1845 01:33:33,320 --> 01:33:35,840 Speaker 3: Perfect example, there was the main event of a fight 1846 01:33:35,880 --> 01:33:40,360 Speaker 3: here last night in Vegas that the underdog one up 1847 01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:42,840 Speaker 3: taking you could take five point fifty here in town 1848 01:33:43,479 --> 01:33:45,400 Speaker 3: on an underdog last night. You have to lay seven 1849 01:33:45,400 --> 01:33:47,679 Speaker 3: and a half to one. You have to win eight 1850 01:33:47,720 --> 01:33:49,840 Speaker 3: events now and by the way, the underdog one you 1851 01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:53,639 Speaker 3: have to win eight units back. I just can't now listen. 1852 01:33:53,960 --> 01:33:56,400 Speaker 3: That hurt me. I'll be the first one to tell you. 1853 01:33:57,040 --> 01:34:00,080 Speaker 3: I bet against Floyd Mayweather at least five six times 1854 01:34:00,160 --> 01:34:02,280 Speaker 3: when he fought. I did, and I thought I was 1855 01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:04,000 Speaker 3: going to win a couple of those fights too. I had. 1856 01:34:04,120 --> 01:34:05,920 Speaker 3: I was in a lot of those fights, but I 1857 01:34:05,960 --> 01:34:08,720 Speaker 3: never won any of them. As we know, Floyd is 1858 01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:12,400 Speaker 3: unbeat was unbeaten. But I couldn't lay five, six, seven, 1859 01:34:12,439 --> 01:34:15,680 Speaker 3: eight to one. However, I did lay it, and I 1860 01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:17,800 Speaker 3: got back a lot of money when he won the 1861 01:34:17,880 --> 01:34:21,720 Speaker 3: UFC fight against Colin McGregor Connor McGregor. So I did 1862 01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:23,680 Speaker 3: get money back there, and I kept on betting it 1863 01:34:23,720 --> 01:34:25,599 Speaker 3: and betting it and re betting it. That there was 1864 01:34:25,640 --> 01:34:27,400 Speaker 3: so much you know what happened. There was so much 1865 01:34:27,439 --> 01:34:30,640 Speaker 3: public coming in town, flying in town. I don't know 1866 01:34:30,720 --> 01:34:33,519 Speaker 3: if they were from Ireland or just from just UFC 1867 01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:37,400 Speaker 3: fans that last day that some of those sports books 1868 01:34:37,479 --> 01:34:40,000 Speaker 3: kept lowering the odds I laid, like, like at first 1869 01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:41,599 Speaker 3: I laid two and a half to one or something 1870 01:34:41,600 --> 01:34:43,960 Speaker 3: like that, but the day of the fight, I laid 1871 01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:47,080 Speaker 3: like two to one one or something like. I had 1872 01:34:47,120 --> 01:34:48,680 Speaker 3: to do it again. It was just so much. I 1873 01:34:48,760 --> 01:34:50,960 Speaker 3: just thought that there was so much of a talent 1874 01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:54,760 Speaker 3: difference and different sports and where I did lay the 1875 01:34:54,800 --> 01:34:58,360 Speaker 3: favorite there. But as far as these proposition bets, I 1876 01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:03,519 Speaker 3: try to not that much juice on about everything. However, 1877 01:35:03,560 --> 01:35:05,320 Speaker 3: I want to know if it opened at that number, 1878 01:35:05,320 --> 01:35:08,000 Speaker 3: in other words, or did it get there from public money. 1879 01:35:08,120 --> 01:35:10,600 Speaker 3: If it opened two and a half minus twenty and 1880 01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:12,840 Speaker 3: it's up to minus eighty five, it's like a ninety 1881 01:35:12,840 --> 01:35:15,360 Speaker 3: five percent chance. I am not laying that. But if 1882 01:35:15,400 --> 01:35:17,320 Speaker 3: it opened over two and a half minus eighty five 1883 01:35:17,360 --> 01:35:19,840 Speaker 3: and it's still there, That's something I'd look at when 1884 01:35:19,920 --> 01:35:21,400 Speaker 3: doing some comparison shopping. 1885 01:35:21,920 --> 01:35:24,920 Speaker 4: Crack is there are there times, as a professional better 1886 01:35:24,960 --> 01:35:30,720 Speaker 4: where you will happily take a bet that's the smart bet. 1887 01:35:30,400 --> 01:35:33,120 Speaker 3: That you feel like I did. 1888 01:35:33,240 --> 01:35:35,760 Speaker 6: This sounds ridiculous to ask, but like you feel. 1889 01:35:35,520 --> 01:35:39,479 Speaker 4: Like is probably a loser, but it's the smart side 1890 01:35:39,960 --> 01:35:44,560 Speaker 4: and you'd rather go down betting smart than betting emotional. 1891 01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:48,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, emotion doesn't really play a part of my game. 1892 01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:52,280 Speaker 3: But as far as you said, though, I know I'm 1893 01:35:52,280 --> 01:35:55,280 Speaker 3: more likely to lose a bet that bet when I 1894 01:35:55,320 --> 01:35:58,920 Speaker 3: make it, taking you know, especially like last night, taking 1895 01:35:58,920 --> 01:36:01,920 Speaker 3: five forty on a fight, I'm probably gonna lose that 1896 01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:06,080 Speaker 3: fight four times out of five, but I'm gonna win 1897 01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:07,800 Speaker 3: that one. That's why I thought the plus five forty 1898 01:36:07,880 --> 01:36:12,280 Speaker 3: was right. So I will make a bet knowing that 1899 01:36:12,880 --> 01:36:15,879 Speaker 3: I'm probably going to have a big percentage of losing. 1900 01:36:16,120 --> 01:36:18,439 Speaker 3: But when I do win that bet, I know the 1901 01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:23,000 Speaker 3: ROI is going to be a lot more then I'm 1902 01:36:23,000 --> 01:36:25,439 Speaker 3: going to lose him. By the way, some people it's 1903 01:36:25,479 --> 01:36:29,680 Speaker 3: a natural human tendency, you know, our human makeup, our chemistry, 1904 01:36:30,360 --> 01:36:33,559 Speaker 3: the human condition when they bet a dog. So no, 1905 01:36:33,680 --> 01:36:37,280 Speaker 3: this question is not no. No question could be not 1906 01:36:37,400 --> 01:36:41,160 Speaker 3: smarter dumb In this situation, people say, okay, well I 1907 01:36:41,240 --> 01:36:43,519 Speaker 3: bet one hundred dollars per unit. That's what I bet. 1908 01:36:43,880 --> 01:36:46,960 Speaker 3: So they'll bet one hundred dollars on the Dodgers, all right, 1909 01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:49,120 Speaker 3: laying like yesterday, laying two and a half to one. 1910 01:36:49,600 --> 01:36:52,599 Speaker 3: How did that do for everybody? So now the late 1911 01:36:52,840 --> 01:36:54,559 Speaker 3: they'll bet one hundred's, Oh yeah, I got a lay 1912 01:36:54,560 --> 01:36:56,080 Speaker 3: two to fifty. I'm going to bet two fifty to 1913 01:36:56,120 --> 01:36:59,080 Speaker 3: one hundred. But yet the other side of that, when 1914 01:36:59,120 --> 01:37:01,599 Speaker 3: they go to take two thirty on a baseball game 1915 01:37:01,680 --> 01:37:04,800 Speaker 3: or two twenty, yeah, let me just do thirty on 1916 01:37:04,840 --> 01:37:06,760 Speaker 3: that because I'll win one hundred or or you know 1917 01:37:06,800 --> 01:37:10,000 Speaker 3: with thirty five. That is so wrong. If you have 1918 01:37:10,040 --> 01:37:13,280 Speaker 3: a unit size that you use, and if you're confident 1919 01:37:13,720 --> 01:37:16,559 Speaker 3: in that same bet like you are every other bet, well, 1920 01:37:16,560 --> 01:37:18,920 Speaker 3: then you should be betting the same amount of money 1921 01:37:19,120 --> 01:37:22,400 Speaker 3: on your units, even though it's an underdog. And just 1922 01:37:22,479 --> 01:37:25,320 Speaker 3: realize that you know you're not in the end taking 1923 01:37:25,360 --> 01:37:28,320 Speaker 3: that two thirty, well, you feel you're not gonna lose, 1924 01:37:28,479 --> 01:37:30,599 Speaker 3: you know, you know, two out of three or whatever 1925 01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:33,360 Speaker 3: it may be. You know, or you know it's actually 1926 01:37:33,640 --> 01:37:35,439 Speaker 3: losing two out of ten, you know, whatever it may be. 1927 01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:39,120 Speaker 3: You just want to make sure that you're betting according 1928 01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:41,080 Speaker 3: to your bank role and believe it or not, it's 1929 01:37:41,080 --> 01:37:43,639 Speaker 3: gonna sound weird to a lot of people. Two percent, 1930 01:37:44,439 --> 01:37:46,400 Speaker 3: you know, I guess you I'm hearing now some guys 1931 01:37:46,400 --> 01:37:48,760 Speaker 3: say three percent of your bank roll. Well, that means 1932 01:37:48,760 --> 01:37:51,640 Speaker 3: if you have a thousand dollars. That's just there, just 1933 01:37:51,720 --> 01:37:57,040 Speaker 3: for sports betting, not to go on trips for your family, vacationing, movies, dinners, 1934 01:37:57,439 --> 01:37:59,960 Speaker 3: or your bills. One thousand dollars just for sports bet 1935 01:38:00,720 --> 01:38:03,559 Speaker 3: Believe it or not, you're supposed to bet twenty or 1936 01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:08,000 Speaker 3: thirty grocery dollars because that is the if, not if 1937 01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:10,679 Speaker 3: you bet ten percent or twenty percent. I talked about 1938 01:38:10,680 --> 01:38:12,479 Speaker 3: this before, Richard, you'll get a kick out of this. 1939 01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:16,080 Speaker 3: Like my guys from back in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Philly, 1940 01:38:16,560 --> 01:38:19,599 Speaker 3: you know anywhere bust in all these places in Chicago, 1941 01:38:20,320 --> 01:38:23,240 Speaker 3: they're not going by any bank roll management. They're firing 1942 01:38:23,280 --> 01:38:25,639 Speaker 3: if they got a thousand bucks, they're betting three hundred 1943 01:38:25,640 --> 01:38:29,280 Speaker 3: and thirty three dollars per game.

Let's see, 1978 01:40:14,479 --> 01:40:19,879 Speaker 2: we've got Tennessee. They're plus three and a half against Purdue, 1979 01:40:20,720 --> 01:40:24,519 Speaker 2: and of course we've got NC State plus seven and 1980 01:40:24,520 --> 01:40:27,640 Speaker 2: a half right now against Duke at BETMGM. 1981 01:40:28,120 --> 01:40:30,800 Speaker 5: What do you guys think, Tennessee or NC State? You 1982 01:40:30,840 --> 01:40:31,839 Speaker 5: on either of them? 1983 01:40:32,520 --> 01:40:36,720 Speaker 3: I am I'm on the Tennessee and now even more so. 1984 01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:43,040 Speaker 3: Remember the movie, the Great movie with Denzel Washington Man 1985 01:40:43,080 --> 01:40:46,200 Speaker 3: on Fire. I think it was in Mexico. Remember that 1986 01:40:46,280 --> 01:40:48,960 Speaker 3: there was a great movie. By the way, the voice 1987 01:40:49,320 --> 01:40:52,959 Speaker 3: was the guy in the background. Well, the voice has spoken, 1988 01:40:53,520 --> 01:40:56,240 Speaker 3: and this is our bet against person. We bet against them. 1989 01:40:56,280 --> 01:40:58,840 Speaker 3: The voice is on Tennis. No, the voice is on 1990 01:40:58,920 --> 01:41:03,040 Speaker 3: Purdue or I am on Tennessee. So I was already 1991 01:41:03,120 --> 01:41:06,160 Speaker 3: on Tennessee. Now I double dip and get down a 1992 01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:08,920 Speaker 3: little bit more. As the three and a half started 1993 01:41:08,960 --> 01:41:13,160 Speaker 3: disappearing off of my screen. Even bet MGM plus three 1994 01:41:13,200 --> 01:41:15,840 Speaker 3: and a half minus twenty now, So I am going 1995 01:41:15,920 --> 01:41:19,360 Speaker 3: to stick with my guns here and even bet a 1996 01:41:19,400 --> 01:41:21,800 Speaker 3: little bit more so Tennessee plus three and a half 1997 01:41:21,800 --> 01:41:22,080 Speaker 3: from ey. 1998 01:41:22,160 --> 01:41:25,839 Speaker 6: Yes, I can't help myself. I can't help myself. 1999 01:41:26,360 --> 01:41:29,600 Speaker 4: I love a good story, and the Wolfpack is the 2000 01:41:29,640 --> 01:41:33,439 Speaker 4: best story left in this tournament. It feels like, you know, 2001 01:41:33,600 --> 01:41:36,920 Speaker 4: like a little bit of like the Resistance against the 2002 01:41:37,040 --> 01:41:42,720 Speaker 4: Evil Empire. You got the Wolfpack exemplifying everything that's right, 2003 01:41:43,200 --> 01:41:44,880 Speaker 4: everything that's good, and then Duke. 2004 01:41:44,920 --> 01:41:46,320 Speaker 6: I mean, everyone hates Duke. 2005 01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:51,080 Speaker 4: I mean, although I will say this, Duke winning wouldn't 2006 01:41:51,080 --> 01:41:52,919 Speaker 4: be the worst thing in the world for the tournament. 2007 01:41:53,000 --> 01:41:57,040 Speaker 4: I think in terms of viewership and interest. Obviously there's 2008 01:41:57,080 --> 01:42:01,479 Speaker 4: more broad appeal when a devil team makes it deep 2009 01:42:01,520 --> 01:42:04,280 Speaker 4: into the tournament. So little bit of a win win 2010 01:42:04,520 --> 01:42:07,400 Speaker 4: just from that standpoint. But I like the Wolfpack, I 2011 01:42:07,439 --> 01:42:09,840 Speaker 4: really do. I think this has been a scrappy bunch. 2012 01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:13,320 Speaker 4: You look at them against Oh who was there round 2013 01:42:13,360 --> 01:42:14,280 Speaker 4: of sixty four win? 2014 01:42:14,439 --> 01:42:15,519 Speaker 6: Was that Texas Tech? 2015 01:42:16,400 --> 01:42:17,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was Texas Tech? 2016 01:42:18,040 --> 01:42:20,840 Speaker 4: And then they had Marquette was the other big win 2017 01:42:20,960 --> 01:42:22,719 Speaker 4: in terms of a high seed falling. 2018 01:42:23,520 --> 01:42:24,360 Speaker 6: I just like them. 2019 01:42:24,600 --> 01:42:27,639 Speaker 4: I like them in big moments, they clutch up, give 2020 01:42:27,680 --> 01:42:30,160 Speaker 4: me NC State plus the seven and a half. 2021 01:42:32,080 --> 01:42:32,360 Speaker 10: You know. 2022 01:42:34,640 --> 01:42:37,439 Speaker 2: This isn't the main part of my thinking, but it's 2023 01:42:37,479 --> 01:42:41,360 Speaker 2: just one thing to consider where you think about yesterday 2024 01:42:41,360 --> 01:42:45,479 Speaker 2: and it was chalk Yukon rolled as we'll just say 2025 01:42:45,479 --> 01:42:45,960 Speaker 2: an eight and a. 2026 01:42:45,960 --> 01:42:46,920 Speaker 5: Half point favorite. 2027 01:42:46,960 --> 01:42:49,719 Speaker 2: It fluctuated based on when you bet it, but let's 2028 01:42:49,720 --> 01:42:52,040 Speaker 2: just say around eight and a half. They won by 2029 01:42:52,080 --> 01:42:55,679 Speaker 2: twenty five. You know, Bama favored by three and a half, 2030 01:42:56,479 --> 01:43:03,200 Speaker 2: they win by seven. So favorite covers favorite today. I'll 2031 01:43:03,240 --> 01:43:06,120 Speaker 2: just ask myself the passing question because I know it's 2032 01:43:06,160 --> 01:43:08,840 Speaker 2: about matchups, and I know styles make fights. It's about 2033 01:43:08,880 --> 01:43:11,519 Speaker 2: the two teams facing each other today, not necessarily what 2034 01:43:11,600 --> 01:43:16,439 Speaker 2: happened yesterday. But do you see yourself with the final 2035 01:43:16,520 --> 01:43:21,760 Speaker 2: four of all favorites covering? Because I don't right right, 2036 01:43:22,520 --> 01:43:27,280 Speaker 2: it's just a passing thought that I have. Where Tennessee, 2037 01:43:28,080 --> 01:43:30,160 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, I'll be honest with you, crack 2038 01:43:31,200 --> 01:43:34,400 Speaker 2: heading into today, I'm seeing it the other way where 2039 01:43:34,439 --> 01:43:38,400 Speaker 2: I'm like, does this sound right? Where Tennessee, who's never 2040 01:43:38,439 --> 01:43:42,679 Speaker 2: been to the final four in program history, is led 2041 01:43:42,760 --> 01:43:49,040 Speaker 2: by Rick Barnes against one seated Perdue in an upset victory. 2042 01:43:49,160 --> 01:43:50,519 Speaker 5: Like I can't. 2043 01:43:50,640 --> 01:43:53,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't sound right. Doesn't mean it's gonna work out 2044 01:43:53,000 --> 01:43:56,080 Speaker 2: that way. It doesn't sound right. But to your point, 2045 01:43:56,479 --> 01:43:59,200 Speaker 2: you've got plus three and a half in your back pocket. 2046 01:43:59,240 --> 01:44:03,000 Speaker 2: You're not calling for the outright upset necessarily. You're just 2047 01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:06,920 Speaker 2: saying keep it within three balls, and that's you're. 2048 01:44:06,800 --> 01:44:09,479 Speaker 3: More right about. Barnes. This is listen, this is gonna 2049 01:44:09,479 --> 01:44:14,000 Speaker 3: be This is literally gonna be a very tough matchup. 2050 01:44:14,240 --> 01:44:18,080 Speaker 3: It's probably produced toughest it is. It's it actually is 2051 01:44:18,439 --> 01:44:20,559 Speaker 3: produced toughest match up in the tournament. Tennessee is one 2052 01:44:20,600 --> 01:44:23,200 Speaker 3: of the top defenses in the country. It'll be interesting 2053 01:44:23,240 --> 01:44:25,599 Speaker 3: to see how how the coach, how coach Barnes there 2054 01:44:25,600 --> 01:44:29,719 Speaker 3: decides to guard Edie down low. So yeah, I wasn't 2055 01:44:29,720 --> 01:44:32,960 Speaker 3: going to make this an official play, like, uh, you know, 2056 01:44:33,080 --> 01:44:34,920 Speaker 3: we come on here and we have these things that 2057 01:44:34,960 --> 01:44:36,559 Speaker 3: we have to give out. We have to give out 2058 01:44:36,560 --> 01:44:38,360 Speaker 3: a play, and I like to do something that I 2059 01:44:38,360 --> 01:44:40,640 Speaker 3: actually like that I bet on. I'm never gonna give 2060 01:44:40,680 --> 01:44:42,120 Speaker 3: out something I didn't bet on. It's just not me. 2061 01:44:42,520 --> 01:44:46,160 Speaker 3: So yeah, Tennessee plus three and a half. They're disappearing. 2062 01:44:46,160 --> 01:44:49,800 Speaker 3: There's still a couple more on the screen left again, 2063 01:44:49,880 --> 01:44:52,120 Speaker 3: like I said, I had Purdue to make to make 2064 01:44:52,120 --> 01:44:55,719 Speaker 3: the championship even in my brackets, so I just thought 2065 01:44:55,720 --> 01:44:59,439 Speaker 3: they'd get there with you know, I just uh, this 2066 01:44:59,520 --> 01:45:02,519 Speaker 3: game can one, two, or three. You're exactly right, right, 2067 01:45:02,720 --> 01:45:03,519 Speaker 3: see what happens. 2068 01:45:03,560 --> 01:45:05,880 Speaker 2: One thing to keep in mind, I'll say this, Kenny 2069 01:45:05,920 --> 01:45:09,360 Speaker 2: Smith made an outstanding point last night doing the postgame 2070 01:45:09,439 --> 01:45:17,040 Speaker 2: stuff for I guess it was TBS yesterday or whatever DBS, CBS. 2071 01:45:16,800 --> 01:45:18,400 Speaker 5: Or whatever network goes on. He was on there. 2072 01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:22,160 Speaker 2: It made a great point. He was like, what Tennessee 2073 01:45:22,240 --> 01:45:27,600 Speaker 2: needs to do. They have to make Zach Edy play laterally. 2074 01:45:28,320 --> 01:45:32,320 Speaker 2: And think about what we just saw Illinois not do 2075 01:45:32,840 --> 01:45:36,879 Speaker 2: yesterday against Donovan Klingen, where they're like, we're gonna challenge 2076 01:45:36,920 --> 01:45:40,200 Speaker 2: this guy at the rim, and it's like that's a 2077 01:45:40,240 --> 01:45:44,760 Speaker 2: horrible strategy because he's erasing shots, he's affecting shots. It 2078 01:45:44,800 --> 01:45:48,839 Speaker 2: didn't work at all. Illinois did not make Donovan Klingen 2079 01:45:49,160 --> 01:45:52,840 Speaker 2: play laterally. It's gonna be the same thing with Zach Eaty. 2080 01:45:52,960 --> 01:45:56,400 Speaker 2: He'll erase shots if you're just making him play vertically, 2081 01:45:56,920 --> 01:46:00,559 Speaker 2: Like you gotta make him a lateral guy. You gotta 2082 01:46:00,720 --> 01:46:03,360 Speaker 2: pick and roll, get your big man out there. Some 2083 01:46:03,439 --> 01:46:06,120 Speaker 2: of these bigs from Tennessee. They can shoot from distance. 2084 01:46:06,560 --> 01:46:09,639 Speaker 2: Like Zach Key, he's not covering you. He's a fish 2085 01:46:09,680 --> 01:46:11,840 Speaker 2: out of water in the pick and roll. He's not 2086 01:46:12,040 --> 01:46:16,320 Speaker 2: covering a guy shooting from distance who's a big. 2087 01:46:16,240 --> 01:46:16,759 Speaker 3: Or a guard. 2088 01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:20,559 Speaker 2: He's not doing His feet are stapled to the paint, right. 2089 01:46:20,640 --> 01:46:22,799 Speaker 2: So I want to see if Rick Barnes and Tennessee 2090 01:46:22,840 --> 01:46:25,920 Speaker 2: can take advantage of that. Because Kenny Smith's exactly right. 2091 01:46:26,240 --> 01:46:28,560 Speaker 2: You have to make Zach Edy play laterally. 2092 01:46:29,720 --> 01:46:34,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you know, it's uh in football, it's what 2093 01:46:34,680 --> 01:46:38,640 Speaker 4: you do when you're a talented enough group and you 2094 01:46:38,680 --> 01:46:41,240 Speaker 4: have a good enough coaching staff that you can force 2095 01:46:41,320 --> 01:46:44,920 Speaker 4: a team to play left handed. So in my realm, 2096 01:46:45,160 --> 01:46:47,639 Speaker 4: in the in the the game that I played, when 2097 01:46:47,720 --> 01:46:52,120 Speaker 4: you're putting together a masterful game plan, and it's not 2098 01:46:52,280 --> 01:46:55,880 Speaker 4: just there's plenty of coaches who can do the Hey, 2099 01:46:55,920 --> 01:46:57,000 Speaker 4: you know what, We're. 2100 01:46:56,800 --> 01:46:59,280 Speaker 3: Just gonna do what we do. We're a power. 2101 01:46:59,080 --> 01:47:02,439 Speaker 4: Running football team. We play great defense, and that's how 2102 01:47:02,439 --> 01:47:05,080 Speaker 4: we're going to win every game. And don't get me wrong, 2103 01:47:05,120 --> 01:47:07,400 Speaker 4: you could win a lot of games that way. But 2104 01:47:08,080 --> 01:47:12,479 Speaker 4: when you shut down specific things that your opponent wants 2105 01:47:12,520 --> 01:47:15,480 Speaker 4: to get to and you make it hard on them 2106 01:47:15,760 --> 01:47:19,240 Speaker 4: to be the team they want to be in the competition. Well, 2107 01:47:19,280 --> 01:47:21,240 Speaker 4: then what does that force them to do? It forces 2108 01:47:21,320 --> 01:47:23,880 Speaker 4: them to adjust. And so now you have a team 2109 01:47:23,920 --> 01:47:25,439 Speaker 4: that's been successful doing. 2110 01:47:25,360 --> 01:47:26,800 Speaker 6: It a certain way. And don't get me wrong, there 2111 01:47:26,800 --> 01:47:28,160 Speaker 6: are plenty of teams. 2112 01:47:28,040 --> 01:47:31,759 Speaker 4: Who have had success adjusting and that is a little 2113 01:47:31,760 --> 01:47:34,920 Speaker 4: bit of their makeup too, that's in their DNA. But 2114 01:47:35,280 --> 01:47:37,559 Speaker 4: the teams that I've been a part of that have 2115 01:47:37,680 --> 01:47:39,960 Speaker 4: been the most successful have been the teams who have 2116 01:47:40,000 --> 01:47:44,480 Speaker 4: been able to force an opponent to do something uncharacteristic 2117 01:47:44,600 --> 01:47:47,680 Speaker 4: or do something that they don't want to do, and 2118 01:47:47,720 --> 01:47:48,799 Speaker 4: that leads to. 2119 01:47:49,320 --> 01:47:50,759 Speaker 6: You know, successful outcomes. 2120 01:47:50,800 --> 01:47:55,360 Speaker 4: That leads to discomfort and adjustments, and sometimes those adjustments 2121 01:47:55,360 --> 01:47:55,840 Speaker 4: don't work. 2122 01:47:56,680 --> 01:48:00,080 Speaker 2: You know, it's all great, And I'll tell you what. 2123 01:48:00,160 --> 01:48:02,880 Speaker 2: It's something that we do want to do and that 2124 01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:06,719 Speaker 2: leads to a successful outcome.

We'll start with you, man, any in game 2164 01:50:22,200 --> 01:50:25,040 Speaker 2: opportunities that might present themselves that you've got on your 2165 01:50:25,120 --> 01:50:25,679 Speaker 2: radar here. 2166 01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,840 Speaker 3: You know, I'll look to see if like, like a 2167 01:50:28,880 --> 01:50:31,960 Speaker 3: guy like Edie gets out there and you know, starts 2168 01:50:32,080 --> 01:50:35,960 Speaker 3: just going crazy and gets them a big lead where 2169 01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:38,200 Speaker 3: I can maybe come on the other side there live. 2170 01:50:39,200 --> 01:50:42,160 Speaker 3: You know, like I said earlier, everyone knows about you know, 2171 01:50:42,200 --> 01:50:45,840 Speaker 3: produced seven or four senior Zach Edie. But you know, 2172 01:50:46,080 --> 01:50:50,559 Speaker 3: Tennessee's got Dawson connect here too, So I'll look to 2173 01:50:50,680 --> 01:50:54,240 Speaker 3: maybe get on a live wager and I'll do some 2174 01:50:54,280 --> 01:50:58,200 Speaker 3: market handicapping throughout the day here. I like doing that, 2175 01:50:58,320 --> 01:51:01,720 Speaker 3: And again we got a little hint here from from 2176 01:51:01,720 --> 01:51:04,719 Speaker 3: our guy at bet MGM. They may they may actually 2177 01:51:04,800 --> 01:51:08,400 Speaker 3: hang some low hanging fruit though with that because of 2178 01:51:08,439 --> 01:51:12,639 Speaker 3: the risk exposure they have on the Duke's Duke money 2179 01:51:12,680 --> 01:51:14,120 Speaker 3: early in the year. So you may find a good 2180 01:51:14,160 --> 01:51:16,360 Speaker 3: line there to it. I would just keep a couple 2181 01:51:16,400 --> 01:51:19,040 Speaker 3: of different sportsbooks up just to know the differences in 2182 01:51:19,080 --> 01:51:21,839 Speaker 3: the lines, and you may have a good opportunity, especially 2183 01:51:21,840 --> 01:51:22,759 Speaker 3: if that's the bet MGM. 2184 01:51:22,840 --> 01:51:26,160 Speaker 4: Like we said, yeah, here's a little bit of a 2185 01:51:26,200 --> 01:51:30,960 Speaker 4: look ahead. One thing that I noticed about Alabama last 2186 01:51:31,040 --> 01:51:34,599 Speaker 4: night is they don't stop shooting. 2187 01:51:35,160 --> 01:51:37,599 Speaker 6: They were I mean, like that's their whole game. 2188 01:51:38,160 --> 01:51:41,920 Speaker 4: If the threes aren't falling, they they will continue to 2189 01:51:41,960 --> 01:51:42,599 Speaker 4: shoot them. 2190 01:51:42,720 --> 01:51:44,439 Speaker 6: And so you know, if. 2191 01:51:44,360 --> 01:51:47,600 Speaker 4: You're looking into player props where maybe if there's a 2192 01:51:47,680 --> 01:51:52,000 Speaker 4: slow shooting first half from some of their snipers, I 2193 01:51:52,000 --> 01:51:55,920 Speaker 4: would pound those those second half props because they're not 2194 01:51:56,000 --> 01:51:57,040 Speaker 4: going to give up on them. 2195 01:51:57,120 --> 01:51:59,480 Speaker 6: That is that is how they've advanced. 2196 01:51:59,520 --> 01:52:03,200 Speaker 4: That is the you know, They're taking their high percentage 2197 01:52:03,200 --> 01:52:06,200 Speaker 4: shots from three point land and they are not going 2198 01:52:06,280 --> 01:52:08,360 Speaker 4: to give up on them. And it doesn't matter how 2199 01:52:08,439 --> 01:52:11,479 Speaker 4: nice cold they are. They're going to shoot and shoot 2200 01:52:11,560 --> 01:52:12,960 Speaker 4: and shoot and shoot. 2201 01:52:12,720 --> 01:52:13,880 Speaker 6: Until they start falling. 2202 01:52:14,360 --> 01:52:18,400 Speaker 4: So just just a tip for the final four, you know, 2203 01:52:18,560 --> 01:52:22,479 Speaker 4: in game, you know, against Yukon, especially if the scorers 2204 01:52:22,720 --> 01:52:24,960 Speaker 4: you know, get out of control early, if Yukon has 2205 01:52:25,000 --> 01:52:28,599 Speaker 4: an early lead and the Crimson tied are cold from 2206 01:52:28,640 --> 01:52:32,800 Speaker 4: the art, I my suggestion is pound those props because 2207 01:52:32,800 --> 01:52:35,120 Speaker 4: if you can get a favorable line, if you get 2208 01:52:35,280 --> 01:52:37,439 Speaker 4: you know, a three point prop down or a scoring 2209 01:52:37,520 --> 01:52:41,400 Speaker 4: prop down and second half, it feels like there's gonna 2210 01:52:41,400 --> 01:52:43,040 Speaker 4: be a lot of hits for people who bet those 2211 01:52:43,040 --> 01:52:43,439 Speaker 4: in game. 2212 01:52:44,760 --> 01:52:48,400 Speaker 2: You know, I keep on saying within game betting, regression 2213 01:52:48,439 --> 01:52:52,320 Speaker 2: to the mean is probably the best philosophy. 2214 01:52:52,880 --> 01:52:53,920 Speaker 5: Well, I'll give you an example. 2215 01:52:54,000 --> 01:53:00,000 Speaker 2: Last night, take Alabama and Clemson in the second half. Yeah, 2216 01:53:00,280 --> 01:53:03,439 Speaker 2: both teams were not scoring a lot. I was taking 2217 01:53:03,479 --> 01:53:06,160 Speaker 2: a look at the in game total and it went 2218 01:53:06,240 --> 01:53:08,920 Speaker 2: as low as like one forty eight and a half 2219 01:53:09,120 --> 01:53:12,000 Speaker 2: at least I saw it go about that low. It 2220 01:53:12,240 --> 01:53:16,439 Speaker 2: ended up combined points one's seventy one, all right. 2221 01:53:16,760 --> 01:53:19,519 Speaker 5: So that's the thing is it's so easy. 2222 01:53:20,000 --> 01:53:22,200 Speaker 2: So you're watching a game live and you're like, no 2223 01:53:22,240 --> 01:53:25,160 Speaker 2: one's scoring right now, I'm gonna bet the under, and 2224 01:53:25,240 --> 01:53:28,040 Speaker 2: a lot of times it's going to go back to 2225 01:53:28,120 --> 01:53:30,200 Speaker 2: the mean. It was supposed to be a little bit 2226 01:53:30,240 --> 01:53:32,880 Speaker 2: of a higher scoring game. You gotta know, Alabama scores 2227 01:53:32,920 --> 01:53:35,519 Speaker 2: a ton of points. They don't play defense, right, So 2228 01:53:35,840 --> 01:53:38,880 Speaker 2: it was just in a little phase where there's maybe 2229 01:53:38,920 --> 01:53:41,880 Speaker 2: a five minute stretch where both teams aren't scoring that much. 2230 01:53:42,200 --> 01:53:43,759 Speaker 5: But you gotta know it's gonna change. 2231 01:53:44,520 --> 01:53:48,080 Speaker 2: And the thing works in reverse as well, where I've 2232 01:53:48,120 --> 01:53:50,280 Speaker 2: had a lot of success. I went with Purdue last 2233 01:53:50,400 --> 01:53:54,280 Speaker 2: game against Gonzaga. They hit a little spurt, they hit 2234 01:53:54,320 --> 01:53:56,519 Speaker 2: a couple of threes in a row, and it's like, 2235 01:53:56,680 --> 01:53:59,400 Speaker 2: now's the perfect time to take a first half team 2236 01:53:59,439 --> 01:54:00,400 Speaker 2: total on it. 2237 01:54:01,240 --> 01:54:03,240 Speaker 5: And it hit with ease, right. 2238 01:54:03,520 --> 01:54:05,840 Speaker 2: It grew to about forty three and a half and 2239 01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:10,240 Speaker 2: you just climb on the other way. So that's really difficult, 2240 01:54:10,479 --> 01:54:13,200 Speaker 2: and you got to be really disciplined because you're watching. 2241 01:54:13,240 --> 01:54:16,920 Speaker 2: You're like, they're filling it up right now, they can't miss, 2242 01:54:17,160 --> 01:54:20,760 Speaker 2: Like I'm gonna bet on it to continue, And oftentimes 2243 01:54:20,800 --> 01:54:24,320 Speaker 2: it doesn't. So I would say keep that in mind, man, 2244 01:54:24,320 --> 01:54:28,080 Speaker 2: regression to the mean, because most times it does switch. 2245 01:54:28,160 --> 01:54:30,479 Speaker 2: If they're scoring a lot, that stops. If they're not 2246 01:54:30,520 --> 01:54:33,600 Speaker 2: scoring at all, sometimes they start scoring a lot more. 2247 01:54:33,680 --> 01:54:34,520 Speaker 5: Just keep that in mind. 2248 01:54:35,440 --> 01:54:35,640 Speaker 11: Yeah. 2249 01:54:36,720 --> 01:54:39,440 Speaker 2: Right, We've got Bill Krackenberger from crack wins dot com 2250 01:54:39,520 --> 01:54:44,040 Speaker 2: sports handicapper.

It's against the Voice, 2277 01:56:10,120 --> 01:56:13,200 Speaker 3: which I love, and uh it is against Jeff Schwartz 2278 01:56:13,240 --> 01:56:17,280 Speaker 3: though over there with his speedo and then pink sandals. 2279 01:56:17,600 --> 01:56:20,520 Speaker 3: But however, I think I'm gonna be watching the game 2280 01:56:20,560 --> 01:56:22,680 Speaker 3: and he may not, So there we go. 2281 01:56:23,200 --> 01:56:28,080 Speaker 6: We go, all right, I'm gonna go. Look, I can't 2282 01:56:28,120 --> 01:56:30,960 Speaker 6: stay away from the story. I don't know. 2283 01:56:31,560 --> 01:56:33,800 Speaker 4: I don't know if the story continues, but I will 2284 01:56:33,800 --> 01:56:36,880 Speaker 4: gladly take the seven and a half points dot North 2285 01:56:36,920 --> 01:56:42,200 Speaker 4: Carolina State is being spotted, I'll take I'll take MC 2286 01:56:42,480 --> 01:56:44,640 Speaker 4: State plus seven and a half. 2287 01:56:45,520 --> 01:56:47,720 Speaker 2: I'm on a couple of unders here, crack, you'd be 2288 01:56:47,720 --> 01:56:50,839 Speaker 2: proud of me, all right, give me a gigantic salute 2289 01:56:50,920 --> 01:56:51,440 Speaker 2: over here. 2290 01:56:51,480 --> 01:56:51,720 Speaker 3: You know. 2291 01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:53,080 Speaker 5: Here's my thinking. 2292 01:56:53,120 --> 01:56:57,480 Speaker 2: The first one, I'm gonna take Tennessee guard Zachai Ziegler, 2293 01:56:57,600 --> 01:56:59,880 Speaker 2: who I love, by the way. I'm gonna take under 2294 01:57:00,080 --> 01:57:03,680 Speaker 2: two and a half three pointers today. Now, he shot 2295 01:57:03,720 --> 01:57:06,720 Speaker 2: two hundred and one to three pointers this season, so 2296 01:57:06,760 --> 01:57:09,360 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to dodge a few. He's gonna get 2297 01:57:09,360 --> 01:57:11,520 Speaker 2: a couple of shots in the air, and he hits 2298 01:57:11,560 --> 01:57:14,840 Speaker 2: at a thirty five percent clip. But I just think 2299 01:57:14,840 --> 01:57:16,839 Speaker 2: this is gonna be a bit more of a grinder 2300 01:57:16,920 --> 01:57:19,600 Speaker 2: type game. I think what Tennessee is gonna do Dalton 2301 01:57:19,600 --> 01:57:23,360 Speaker 2: connect is gonna shoot from distance, and you're also gonna 2302 01:57:23,360 --> 01:57:26,960 Speaker 2: get some pick and roll opportunities where a big shoots 2303 01:57:26,960 --> 01:57:30,200 Speaker 2: at three and zach Edy is just not comfortable going 2304 01:57:30,200 --> 01:57:31,320 Speaker 2: out there to guard the guy. 2305 01:57:31,680 --> 01:57:32,360 Speaker 5: So I think that's. 2306 01:57:32,240 --> 01:57:35,440 Speaker 2: Gonna take a couple of opportunities away from Ziegler. I'm 2307 01:57:35,440 --> 01:57:38,480 Speaker 2: gonna take him under two and a half threes today. 2308 01:57:39,240 --> 01:57:42,400 Speaker 2: And I've also got Purdue their team total, I've got 2309 01:57:42,520 --> 01:57:44,760 Speaker 2: under seventy five and a half. I love the way 2310 01:57:44,800 --> 01:57:48,920 Speaker 2: Tennessee guards. They're a top twenty defense. Their guards are 2311 01:57:48,920 --> 01:57:52,400 Speaker 2: gonna get into Braden Smith, get into Fletcher Lawyer, and 2312 01:57:52,440 --> 01:57:54,880 Speaker 2: those entry passes to Zach Edie, they're not going to 2313 01:57:54,960 --> 01:57:58,879 Speaker 2: be the same. A lot more resistance from Tennessee's defense 2314 01:57:58,960 --> 01:58:02,440 Speaker 2: compared to produce last game against Gonzaga, so I think 2315 01:58:02,480 --> 01:58:04,640 Speaker 2: that factors into it. I've got under seventy five and 2316 01:58:04,640 --> 01:58:07,120 Speaker 2: a half for produced team total right. 2317 01:58:07,080 --> 01:58:08,000 Speaker 3: There, there you go. 2318 01:58:09,040 --> 01:58:12,280 Speaker 5: I feel like a new man taking unders in front 2319 01:58:12,320 --> 01:58:12,480 Speaker 5: of you. 2320 01:58:12,640 --> 01:58:15,760 Speaker 3: Crat all right, yeah, and don't worry for the play 2321 01:58:15,800 --> 01:58:17,280 Speaker 3: of the day, I'm taking over here, So. 2322 01:58:17,640 --> 01:58:18,800 Speaker 5: We'll do that right here. 2323 01:58:19,200 --> 01:58:23,320 Speaker 2: Whoa, Yeah, let's get the fancy intro and everything. 2324 01:58:23,880 --> 01:58:26,000 Speaker 1: This is the best play of the day. 2325 01:58:27,120 --> 01:58:28,480 Speaker 5: Okay, what is it, crowd? 2326 01:58:28,640 --> 01:58:30,120 Speaker 3: I hate to say this. I don't know how we 2327 01:58:30,160 --> 01:58:33,240 Speaker 3: both can win, but with your team total on there, 2328 01:58:33,240 --> 01:58:35,840 Speaker 3: but I mean, I guess of course we could. I'm 2329 01:58:35,880 --> 01:58:38,400 Speaker 3: gonna go. And and also I think Rich earlier had 2330 01:58:38,480 --> 01:58:41,400 Speaker 3: Zach Edy over on points. So Zach Edy on Purdue 2331 01:58:41,520 --> 01:58:44,760 Speaker 3: over thirty thirty over thirty seven and a half points, 2332 01:58:44,800 --> 01:58:47,680 Speaker 3: rebounds and assist. Edie has hit this number in his 2333 01:58:47,760 --> 01:58:50,040 Speaker 3: last nine games. I think this is going to be 2334 01:58:50,040 --> 01:58:51,560 Speaker 3: a close game. I think he's going to be in 2335 01:58:51,600 --> 01:58:53,520 Speaker 3: there and get some time. So as long as he 2336 01:58:53,560 --> 01:58:55,680 Speaker 3: stays out of foul trouble, he should see thirty five 2337 01:58:55,680 --> 01:58:58,480 Speaker 3: plus minutes. He's gone over this number in thirteen to 2338 01:58:58,560 --> 01:59:03,800 Speaker 3: fifteen times with their thirty five plus minutes. You know, listen. 2339 01:59:03,920 --> 01:59:07,600 Speaker 3: I mean he's pretty much matchup proof and should go 2340 01:59:07,640 --> 01:59:10,920 Speaker 3: over this number today. But you know, if if it 2341 01:59:11,000 --> 01:59:14,320 Speaker 3: is a tighter game and and more tense game, I 2342 01:59:14,400 --> 01:59:15,880 Speaker 3: just think he's gonna have a lot of minutes. So 2343 01:59:15,920 --> 01:59:18,320 Speaker 3: that's that that also will lead to rebounds and assists. 2344 01:59:18,320 --> 01:59:20,360 Speaker 3: So there we go. We got a lot of a 2345 01:59:20,360 --> 01:59:22,960 Speaker 3: lot of action today. I get that roach over earlier 2346 01:59:23,120 --> 01:59:27,040 Speaker 3: twelve and a half points, Zach Edy over or against 2347 01:59:27,080 --> 01:59:29,280 Speaker 3: the voice on Tennessee. We got a lot of stuff, 2348 01:59:30,040 --> 01:59:31,400 Speaker 3: a lot of fun stuff going on. 2349 01:59:31,560 --> 01:59:34,680 Speaker 2: It's like roll reversal, crack. You're over guy today, I'm 2350 01:59:34,760 --> 01:59:37,600 Speaker 2: under guy. What's going on with the universe?
