Talk some 15 00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 4: live dogs, some favorite favorites, some spots, and of course 16 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 4: our trash play of the week, Fellas. How you doing. 17 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 4: Let's get into it, Jim, are you ready to break 18 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 4: down some big games for Monday and Tuesday? 19 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 5: Kay, it sounded to me like you said, every Monday morning, 20 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 5: that's what it was for everybody. Last week, it was 21 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 5: so the picks of the weave. My god, let's try 22 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 5: to repeat that performance. I believe we had a net 23 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 5: thirteen and two record, maybe with a push in there. 24 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 5: So if we can continue doing that, we will make 25 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 5: the people some money. So make it the Monday morning. 26 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 4: Pretty good stuff. Well, on Monday, there are two huge games, 27 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 4: Matthew Cox. We got Arizona going to BYU in a 28 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 4: Big twelve battle, and we got Louisville going to your duchies, 29 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 4: Louisville at Duke on Monday, starting with Zona BYU Arizona. 30 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 4: In case you haven't realized, it has gone to number 31 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 4: one in KEMPOM. They've surpassed Michigan. They are unstoppable. They're 32 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 4: coming off a thirty five point win against West Virginia. 33 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 4: Matthew BYU is five and one in the Big twelve 34 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 4: Provo obviously a very tough place to play. They won 35 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 4: at Arizona last season. Perhaps the Wildcats remember, or at 36 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 4: least Tommy Lloyd. Can the Cougars stand up to the 37 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 4: physicality and size of Arizona. 38 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 3: I think they can, But I think that's where Zona 39 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 3: has an edge. Just for context, it's basically Arizona, Michigan, 40 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 3: and then Duke and then Illinois, Iowa State, Michigan State, 41 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 3: Houston and sort of the advanced analytics kem POM tiering. 42 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 3: Just so Arizona Michigan operating at a different level. Although 43 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 3: Michigan more on the downspin, Warzona's just been quietly crushing 44 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 3: really good teams, sort of like beneath the national radar. 45 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: I think this is a game BYU competes. 46 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 3: I'm curious what the number settles out of here, but 47 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 3: I do think as a home doll even they just 48 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 3: came off that civil war game Gym, which I watched. 49 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 3: They did not play very well. I think it actually 50 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 3: sets up well for BI YouTube play much better than 51 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 3: they did against their art tribal, who I think kind 52 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 3: of came out desperate and angry. 53 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 5: Well, I don't know you'd say they didn't play well 54 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 5: against Utah. They got forty three from aj DEBATSA. I mean, 55 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 5: hard for him to do a lot more than that. 56 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 5: I'm looking at it right now. It's two and a 57 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 5: half and in the market a lot of two and 58 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 5: a half minus fifteen at hard Rock, at ESPN, BET, etc. 59 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 5: There's minus three and a half elsewhere Kai I'm going 60 00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 5: to bet Arizona. I just I think they're on a 61 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 5: different level right now. You mentioned that they've passed Michigan. 62 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 5: You know, a month ago, three weeks ago, people were 63 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 5: like this Michigan team is on the historic track to 64 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 5: unseat nineteen ninety nine Duke for the best team ever 65 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 5: and Ken Palm's adjusted efficiency margin. Now they're well back 66 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 5: down to earth. And meanwhile, Hohum in the desert for 67 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 5: Arizona just keeps ticking along as this completely unstoppable juggernaut. 68 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 5: And I have no concern about their style traveling a 69 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 5: because BYU isn't going to slow the game down, and 70 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 5: like I think, to give something to trouble Arizona a little, 71 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 5: you've got to slow it down like UCLA and Yukon 72 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 5: did back in November. But if you're going to play 73 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 5: a track meet with them, good luck. And the style 74 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,839 Speaker 5: just they're so good with shot volume margin, like they're 75 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 5: dominant on the glass. They're up there with Florida and 76 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 5: Michigan State. It's the three best rebounding teams in the country. 77 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 5: They don't turn it over that much, they don't need 78 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 5: to make shots to win like they're in some ways 79 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 5: that can be a downer, but I also think it 80 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 5: decreases the variance in their performances. So I'm gonna just 81 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 5: ride with them the juggernaut. I'm not going to try 82 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 5: to pick off this cute home dog spot. Maybe other 83 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 5: people will, but I'm laying at Arizona minus two and 84 00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 5: a half. It's actually minus two and a half minus 85 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 5: ten at fan duel right now, so I'm just gonna 86 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 5: lock that in Kai. 87 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I guess I kind of expected people to 88 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 4: bet BYU in this spot because it is kind of 89 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 4: a spot here, home home dog, as you said, very 90 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,119 Speaker 4: good team. The market has tended to pounce on these 91 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 4: spots this season. Now, maybe it's just Arizona is this good. 92 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 4: I would love a chance to get a short favorite 93 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 4: Arizona or heaven forbid, even a pick if if BYU 94 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 4: is crazy in the market, But I'm also gonna be 95 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 4: on Arizona. You can't beat Arizona in the glass or 96 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 4: inside or at the foul line, and that's what Bou's 97 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 4: done so far in league play. It's not going to 98 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 4: work against Arizona. So give me the Wildcats as well. 99 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 4: Louisville Duke kem Pom's got Duke minus nine. But in 100 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 4: the market right now, let's see what it is. We 101 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 4: got Duke minus six and a half right now over Louisville, 102 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 4: and that's likely because mikel Brown came back last game 103 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 4: for Louisville, the Cardinals won easily against Virginia Tech. He 104 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 4: scored twenty He looked great. Duke Jim quietly has been 105 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 4: dominant the last few games after some head scratching performances. 106 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 4: They beat col by fifteen, They beat Stanford by thirty, 107 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 4: They beat Wake by twenty one. In game one of 108 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 4: this matchup, Louisville had a big lead in the first half, 109 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 4: led by twelve hot shooting in the first half, and 110 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 4: then when Ice Cold couldn't stop Cam boozer. Do we 111 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 4: think Louisville has a better effort in this game or 112 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 4: does Duke just run away with it again? 113 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was one of the games that MIKEL. Brown 114 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 5: Junior missed and it clearly hurt Louisville, Like they're having 115 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 5: to miscast Willya and Conwell into creation roles and it 116 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 5: didn't really work out for them. But that was when 117 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 5: Duke turned it around. Because they had fallen to ninth 118 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 5: in Ken Palm. They're almost outside the top ten now here. 119 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 5: They are closer to Michigan than they are to like 120 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 5: number four. 121 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 2: Basically, at this. 122 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 5: Point, the Blue Devils have hit the gas pedal and 123 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 5: I think that was a turning point, Matt. They got 124 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 5: that awesome defensive half from Donasar. He just completely erased Conwell. 125 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 5: In the second half of that game. Boozer was unstoppable 126 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,679 Speaker 5: per usual. He put Snanda fru in foul trouble basically 127 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 5: the entire game. He had four fourteen minutes. I just 128 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:26,599 Speaker 5: you don't know about the number, Matthias. I kind of 129 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 5: want to back Louisville for like the road reversal, the 130 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 5: road revenge after one team lost at home, but man 131 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 5: nine in the nine ken pum six and a half 132 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 5: in the market, telling you what Brown Junior is worth. 133 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 5: I'm going to stay away from this one. I kind 134 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 5: of leaned towards the Cardinals, but I'm not going to 135 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 5: bet it. 136 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, I initially had Louisville too, but I that first 137 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 3: game at Duke, and you know, I remember we talked 138 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 3: about this and it's almost a continuation of Louisville's flaws 139 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 3: from last season. 140 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:55,360 Speaker 1: Look at Evan Mia. 141 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,359 Speaker 3: He has the opponent adjust rankings, basically categorizing team's performance 142 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 3: relative to good and not good teams. 143 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: Louisville's the only team inside. 144 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 3: The top fifty with like a severe them in Kentucky 145 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 3: for context, basically sort of low major mid major by 146 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 3: game merchants, and they just have not stepped up well 147 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 3: in class. I think that Duke's second half in the 148 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 3: first game, where they just were able to bully Leuisland inside, 149 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 3: even with the kel Brown coming back, I just don't 150 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 3: know if they have a remedy of that. I mean, 151 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: they're more physical than they were last year, but they've 152 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 3: still shown on multiple occasions this year that they just 153 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 3: don't match up well with the league teams. So I'm 154 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 3: probably gonna stay away here. 155 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 4: Kai. 156 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 3: If the line was like true to analytic form, I 157 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 3: guess like closer to nine or ten, I'd be intrigued. 158 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 3: But I think seven is like eh, I don't know. 159 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 3: I think what Duke did last game and what Duke's 160 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,720 Speaker 3: doing currently feels repeatable in this matchup, even with Brett one. 161 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 2: Other thing on to throw in kay Is. 162 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 5: In that second half, Caleb Foster was like the key offensively, 163 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 5: Like obviously, Boozer did what he does and Evans hit 164 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 5: some shots, but Foster had a monster game. He had 165 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 5: twenty points against Louisville. In the four games since, he 166 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 5: has seventeen total, he has not been the same guy. 167 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 5: He hasn't scored twenty in any other game all season. 168 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 5: There's a chance that was the mirage the mirage performance, 169 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 5: and so he does push me a little more towards 170 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 5: the level. But Matt's indication with that the team, the 171 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 5: opponent's adjustment that Evan me has got, and just generally 172 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 5: where the number is, I'm gonna I'm gonna sit in 173 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 5: my hands. 174 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: My ran is just real quick. 175 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 3: His top five teams inside the top one hundred, Baylor, 176 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:32,840 Speaker 3: pitt Louisville, Kentucky, Indiana, like that adds up to me, 177 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 3: like just teams that just really haven't played well and 178 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 3: games haven't stepped up in class. 179 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 4: Those teams fit to build my sentiments exactly, though. I 180 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 4: if it was closer to nine or ten, I'd be 181 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 4: thinking about Louisville. No thanks, at six and a half seven. 182 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: On Tuesday, I picked out three more big games. There's 183 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 4: actually a few, even more games than we're going to 184 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 4: talk about here, but gonna highlight three. On Tuesday, a 185 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 4: rivalry game purdued Indiana. Matt Cox went to Indiana, so 186 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 4: he might have an opinion on this game. Kim Pom 187 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:02,079 Speaker 4: makes this one perdue minus four at the Hoosiers. Boilers 188 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 4: off two straight losses, including a recent home failure against Illinois. 189 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 4: Indiana just punked Rutgers after losing four straight. Matt, I 190 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 4: think the Purdue front line pretty much destroys Indiana, and 191 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 4: you just mentioned the step up in class stat Can 192 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 4: Indiana step up in class and compete with Purdue? 193 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 3: I skeptical, but I think against this version the version 194 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 3: we we saw lose at UCLA, the version we saw 195 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 3: get dominated by Illinois, which I know was largely the 196 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 3: Keaton wet Wogler explosion story. But Braden Smith had the 197 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 3: ankle issue come back, he still played really well. I 198 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 3: just don't think he's one hundred percent in those lineups 199 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 3: that Painter has tritten out with me and TKR Jim, 200 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 3: as you said, was on a milk carton. I think 201 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 3: it gets to that brittal kind of flawed version of Perdue. 202 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 3: I think Indiana actually has a chance, but we'll see 203 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 3: what the number opens. You say, kem pom four. You know, 204 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 3: if you just isolate Q two and better this year, 205 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 3: it's Perdue minus seven. Speaking to my point earlier about 206 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 3: Indiana being one of those teams that just hasn't played 207 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 3: well against good teams, I'm gonna stay away. I just 208 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,560 Speaker 3: there's too much uncertainty with pretty right now, Jim, I 209 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,599 Speaker 3: want to back Purdue here, I just I'm not going. 210 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 2: To do it. 211 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 5: I'm doing it. I'm pretty up to five. 212 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 2: Give it to me. 213 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 5: I know you mentioned Smith's ankle, but what's up with 214 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 5: Taiton Conaway? 215 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: Is he okay? 216 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 5: He's played eighteen minutes combined the last two games returned 217 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 5: against Rutgers, played sixteen minutes off the bench and was okay, 218 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 5: like not really a major difference maker. I think you 219 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 5: need him on the ball against Braden Smith to really 220 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 5: hold up here. I think Matt Painter's going to have 221 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 5: them doing rebounding drills basically from the end of that 222 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 5: Illinois game until the Indiana game starts. After they got 223 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 5: punked on the glass thirty three to nineteen. Kaufman Ren's 224 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 5: been absent there. I don't think Indiana can mismatch hunt 225 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,839 Speaker 5: Purduees defense the way that Illinois did Kai. 226 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 2: That's the biggest thing for me. 227 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 5: They really got exposed there because they don't have big wings. 228 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 2: They don't have like. 229 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 5: Really just athletic defenders, and Illinois just picked on that Indiana. 230 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 5: I guess you could like kind of try to do 231 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 5: it with tuckative breeze, but he's no woggler off the 232 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 5: bounce getting all the way to the rim. He's got 233 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 5: the step back game, but not quite that Wilkerson maybe 234 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 5: a six to six scoring guy joked on Twitter that 235 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 5: Purdue can't guard anybody that's six six or six seven 236 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 5: that has ball skills. I just I think this one 237 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 5: ends up being a little bit of a punking in 238 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 5: the paint after Purdue got punked. So I'm gonna lay 239 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 5: it with Perdue on the road. 240 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 4: I'm gonna lay it as well. I agree Derez I 241 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 4: think is the guy that gives Purdue a little problem. 242 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 4: But I don't see how Indiana can hold up against 243 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 4: the front line of Purdue. Nebraska. Michigan is staying in the 244 00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,599 Speaker 4: Big Ten. Michigan has not covered six straight games. I 245 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 4: won six and last six against the spread, Nebraska five 246 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,599 Speaker 4: and one against the spread and last six. Looking to 247 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 4: keep the lead in the Big Ten. Twenty four straight 248 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 4: wins dating back to last year. They're just good. I 249 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 4: watched the game against Minnesota. They ate the Gophers lunch 250 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 4: in the second half. Lawrence is good rink, mass Rocks. 251 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 4: Sandford is becoming a killer. He's just a total game 252 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,959 Speaker 4: changer when he gets hot from three and Jim, I 253 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 4: think they're catching Michigan at a pretty good time. They're 254 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 4: a team that's still playing with their food, not quite 255 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 4: as dominant as they were, and it's an opportunity to 256 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 4: act the Huskers as a high dog. That intrigues me. 257 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 4: I'll be on Nebraska here if it's close to where 258 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 4: Kimpon makes it at nine. 259 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm looking at I just pulled up team rankings 260 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 5: to see confirming it has been six non covers in 261 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 5: a row and they've been favored by double digits in 262 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 5: all of them, at least twelve and a half. There's 263 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 5: an early ten and a half out there somewhere. Hand 264 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 5: to me ten and a half with Nebraska, I'll take it. 265 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,200 Speaker 5: I know Branden Frager is almost certainly still out, but 266 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 5: they figured things out without him. At Minnesota. They knocked 267 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 5: on shots. They are just like this thorn in the side. 268 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 5: I think somebody tweeted they were. They're like the most 269 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 5: elite YMCA team where every guy makes the right play, 270 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 5: every guy can dribble and shoot. They're cutting timing off 271 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 5: the ball is incredible, Like the second guy has a 272 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 5: post catch, there's somebody flying back door, and maybe that 273 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 5: doesn't work against Michigan size. But I just don't want 274 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 5: to lay double digits with this team right now. They 275 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,599 Speaker 5: have been overvalued in the market. 276 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 6: For a while. 277 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 5: It's funny them in the Yukon are both O and 278 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 5: six ats in the last six. Conference play has exposed 279 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 5: them a little bit, and I think people were a 280 00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 5: little stunned by what Michigan could bring the bear in 281 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 5: the paints with their size, their physicality. I don't know 282 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 5: if Yaxelendenborg is fully one hundred percent at this point. 283 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 5: I'll take Nebraska down to nine. 284 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 2: That's what it is. That Ken palm. 285 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 5: If there really is like ten and a half out 286 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 5: there in the market already for a Tuesday game, yes please, 287 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 5: But I'm just gonna mark it down and we'll judge 288 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 5: it at plus nine because I can't imagine eleven is 289 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 5: gonna be out there, Matthew or ten and a half. 290 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I will say the slide Devil's advocate. I just 291 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: the Michigan overvalue run. I think I lean your way 292 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 3: here with Nebraska, But you know, they've their non covers 293 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 3: have been by like one point one and a half points. 294 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 3: Like Indiana, they were basically in the number and then 295 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 3: the kind of got back toward o'house one by twelve. 296 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,280 Speaker 5: Well they'll they're down one with tenants. 297 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:51,959 Speaker 1: Gas pedal. 298 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 3: But just a tough spot for Nebraska man the Saturday 299 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 3: to Tuesday back to back on the road. They had 300 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 3: to really push deep into that game and maybe the 301 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,200 Speaker 3: last depth here. But again, I look at that Illinois 302 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:03,559 Speaker 3: game when everyone sort of thought that was gonna be 303 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 3: the one that would come to roost against Nebraska, and 304 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 3: they won outright as I think an eleven point dog. Yeah, 305 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:11,920 Speaker 3: like Nebraska, I think the market's gonna actually bet Nebraska here. 306 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 3: I feel like there's been like this sort of antire 307 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 3: Nebraska sentiment where if you're like riding the Nebraska train, 308 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 3: you can usually wait. This is what I feel like, 309 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 3: You're money will come in on the Huskers as sort 310 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 3: of a continuation of the Michigan slight plateau that we've 311 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 3: seen recently. 312 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 4: Uh yeah, Nebraska down to nine for me as well, 313 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 4: that'll be an official bet. Finally, Kentucky at Vanderbilt Vanderbilt 314 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 4: minus seven per Kim pom Hey, the Wildcats have won 315 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 4: five in a row. Matthew All without Jaylen Lowe played 316 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 4: three minutes in one of their wins, and Jaden Quainton's 317 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 4: Vanderbilt they woke up after beating Mississippi State following three losses. 318 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 4: My opinion, I kind of leaned towards Vanderbilt Smash a 319 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 4: better team, more cohesive, they don't make mistakes, and I'm 320 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 4: really not afraid of the non JQ Kentucky forwards and 321 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 4: that's kind of been Andrewald's weakness in sec play your 322 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 4: thoughts in this game again. Kem Pom has Vandy minus seven. 323 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I leaned Vandy here again. Curious for the market 324 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 3: ultimately settles with this one. I kind of think it's 325 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 3: gonna be around a touchdown. I don't know there's gonna 326 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 3: be a huge shade. Kentucky's been a little bit. We've 327 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 3: seen some recent games. They've been overpriced, but a premium 328 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 3: to back them probably off on average by two points 329 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 3: from the kempalm line. Maybe that's the case here, but 330 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 3: I'm with you. I think the matchup is pretty strong here, 331 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 3: especially if there's no acquaintance. Well that's the key. Other 332 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,520 Speaker 3: key jym is Kentucky's backcourt. Do they handle the pressure. 333 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 3: I think Byington really wants to lean into his pressure 334 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 3: as a way to mitigate his lack of rebounding in 335 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 3: size up proNT they did that agains Psissippi State. I 336 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 3: can see them doing that against Kentucky as well as 337 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 3: Aberdeen's played. I do think you need multiple high end 338 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 3: ball of handlers to deal with that, and I'm not 339 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 3: sure Kentucky's proven they have that yet. 340 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 2: Yep. 341 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 5: I'm all over Vandy again. Back to more over the weekend, 342 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 5: and they got very right against Mississippi State, just completely 343 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 5: destroyed them. And I think this is like the perfect 344 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 5: spot to sell on Kentucky. They're only two and three 345 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 5: ats in this little five game winning streak. They've been 346 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 5: down double digits in a bunch of these games and 347 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 5: have gotten back in with some I would call outlier shooting. 348 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 5: They were not convincing against Ole Miss. I know they 349 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 5: won by nine, but that was like a one point 350 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 5: game in the second half. I think Vandy's much better. 351 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 5: They're not going to get exposed inside, as you guys 352 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 5: both mentioned, and then that ball pressure against Denzel Aberdeen 353 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 5: and motions at the rest of the Kentucky backcourt. I 354 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 5: guess it's Colin Chandler and Oway, who I like as 355 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 5: a player, but not as a handler of pressure. I 356 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 5: think this is one where I'm not gonna overly respect 357 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 5: Kentucky on the road, that funky home court of Vanderbilt. Kai, 358 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 5: I will lay the touchdown seven. I don't want to 359 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 5: go higher than seven, So I'm just gonna stick it 360 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 5: at seven. That's where That's where Ken Palm's got it. 361 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, lean that way towards for me. Not an official 362 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 4: bet though, so yeah, we're all commodores. On Tuesday, mid 363 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 4: major game fellows, I got two picked out from the 364 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 4: Mountain West. I got two picked out from the A ten. 365 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,719 Speaker 4: Pretty solid slate on Tuesday. Nothing on Monday, but some 366 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 4: good Tuesday games here. So in the Mountain West, Grand 367 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 4: Canyon going to Nevada, Ken Palm's got this one. Nevada 368 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 4: minus four, Grand Canyon six and two in the Mountain West, 369 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 4: three straight wins, including two over San Diego State and 370 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 4: Utah State. Nevada though in sneaky solid shape in the 371 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 4: Mountain West standings as well, six and three, but they 372 00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 4: have failed against the three best teams in the League. 373 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 4: Matt I kind of leaned towards Nevada here at home. 374 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 4: Comber's been a stud for them. Opponents aren't going to 375 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 4: shoot twenty five percent from three the entire Mountain West 376 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,240 Speaker 4: play against Grand Canyon. Eventually that's going to break. Perhaps 377 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 4: it's in this game, but slightly in for me with Nevada. 378 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 4: Your thoughts, I have a big Nevada liene here. I'm 379 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 4: very curious for this number opens as well. We spoke 380 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 4: with Bryce Shrew on the Late Night Show with Tom 381 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 4: Oser and Mountain West Look last night. He said that 382 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 4: Brian Moore still getting evaluated. He may come back, but 383 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 4: it sounded more ominous. I think the Jayden Henley point. 384 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 3: Forward experiment that Drew talked about preseason is starting to 385 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,239 Speaker 3: come to fruition. Makes me think I'm a little bit 386 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 3: undervaluing this GCU team and its current form. But off 387 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 3: three big, big games, I think they're due for a 388 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 3: little of a stink care. We've seen some inconsistency within 389 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 3: this year because their guard plays a little bit radic. 390 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 3: I know the Youngstown game feels like forever ago, but 391 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 3: that's just I think one example where it's like there 392 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:26,040 Speaker 3: is some evidence that this team is not always at 393 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 3: their best, and I like this the Bada team. I 394 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 3: think they're kind of flying down too the radar right now, 395 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 3: a little bit banged up inside, but they've been pretty 396 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 3: consistent as well. They're deep, They're going to councregeons for 397 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 3: a lot of guys. I think this is a great 398 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 3: spot to back the pack. 399 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 5: Jim, Yeah, I actually had Grand Canyon written down, and 400 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 5: just you guys talking about it, I'm not going to 401 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 5: back Grand Canyon. I agree with you. The spot is 402 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,200 Speaker 5: no good. I would have thought maybe Grand Canyon was 403 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 5: a fade last game after the home Utah State home 404 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 5: San Diego State back to back wins, and then they 405 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,080 Speaker 5: go on the road and handle Fresno. But man, I 406 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 5: just I think Fresno is not a good team and 407 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 5: fairly poorly coached. But now they're second straight roady at 408 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 5: elevation against Nevada, a team I definitely. 409 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 2: Have undervalued at times this year. 410 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 5: The fact that all inside the top seventy of Ken 411 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 5: Palm is maybe higher than I would. 412 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:12,640 Speaker 2: Have ranked them. 413 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 5: So and off a loss too at the pit back 414 00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 5: home spots too much for me. 415 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 6: Kai. 416 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 5: I looked at the four, like I said, I wrote 417 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 5: it down, and I am backing off of that. 418 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: Stay away from me just big things throughout that Fresno game. 419 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 3: Presno is up too and then Collins and Gory fouled out, 420 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 3: Like I I mean, maybe they're too most important players, 421 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 3: with all due respect to Kay's boy Jake hard better. 422 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 3: So I think we could be Our GCU narrative could 423 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 3: be very different if Frezo wins that game. But I 424 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 3: think that's kind of what sets up for a what 425 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 3: I believe is a good spot here. 426 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:43,160 Speaker 2: For the pack. 427 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 4: I agree, And of course Gran Canon got lucky against 428 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 4: San Diego State should have lost that game. Aztecs and 429 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:53,119 Speaker 4: some reffing blew it at the end. Speaking of the PIT, 430 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 4: the team that plays at the PIT is traveling to 431 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 4: Las Vegas, New Mexico minus six on the road at 432 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 4: UNLV per Ken pom off of San Diego State loss 433 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 4: New Mexico, coming in at seven and two in the league, 434 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 4: a top fifty Ken Palm team fighting for an at 435 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 4: large bid. Here, Jim, they have the best defense in 436 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 4: the league. I don't think you want to be you 437 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 4: can really exploit this defense, and the Lobos, of course 438 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 4: under Eric Olin, a terrific team at protecting the ball, 439 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 4: they don't turn it over. I tend to think they 440 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 4: get it done here, but nothing strong. 441 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been really impressed by New Mexico. I don't 442 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 5: think anybody looked at this roster in the preseason and said, oh, 443 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 5: that's a top fifty team. It's going to flirt with 444 00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 5: that large bid this year. Owen's just that good, really 445 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 5: really excellent coach. I would lean their way, but matt 446 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 5: unlv is like the ultimate that variance monster in terms 447 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 5: of like the way they play. But their outcomes have 448 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 5: been all. 449 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 2: Over the place. 450 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 5: They're three hundred and twentieth inconsistency per Houslo Metrics, and 451 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 5: I think that checks out exactly and some of the 452 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 5: home losses they've taken then to be able to go 453 00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 5: on the road and win at Utah State, arguably the 454 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 5: best team in the league. It was able to nail 455 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 5: San Diego State on Saturday. Shout out to weekend listeners 456 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 5: of BBOC that was my favorite bet of the weekend 457 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 5: and as text took care of business. But I'm gonna 458 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 5: stay away from this UNLB Gay Matthews. It's not quite 459 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 5: enough of a bad spot where I'm willing to fade. 460 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 5: What is a very erratic team. 461 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:15,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think they are. 462 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 3: I think the the erratic behavior is sort of indicative, 463 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 3: like their rotate. Their roster lineup has been a question 464 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 3: mark all year. They had a ton of injuries. Pastor 465 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 3: loves to change defenses. I think that also plays into 466 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 3: the variants as well. I lean New Mexico here, though, 467 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 3: I'm with you, I was super impressive what I've seen 468 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 3: how they're playing. They got their guards in Tennett and 469 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 3: allber Area playing really well, and then CJ. 470 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: Hall the freshman. 471 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 3: It's just such like a quintessential j Cal Thank you J. Hall, 472 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 3: like strong guard who can kind of back you down 473 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 3: and post you, but then he can stretch. It reminds 474 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 3: me a little bit of like a thicker time a guy, 475 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,719 Speaker 3: just not as leap of a shooter, just a bit 476 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 3: a versatile piece that just seems like a classic Triton guy. 477 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 3: And their size up fronts are pretty good too, deep 478 00:21:58,240 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 3: versaal tough to prepare for. 479 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: Aleen Lobo's here, but no bet for me. 480 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 4: Sorry to the A. Ten we Go and Slew is 481 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:07,960 Speaker 4: maybe the best or excuse me, the most fun team 482 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 4: in the country to watch. They're hosting George Washington. Kemp 483 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 4: Pom's got the spread minus eleven in favor of Slough. 484 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 4: They're just so unselfish the Billikins, Matt. They're so fun 485 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 4: to watch. They get great shots. They rock on defense 486 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 4: as well. I gotta check if they're still this way. 487 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 4: But as of Saturday, and yes, as of today, number 488 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 4: one in the country and effective field goal percent in 489 00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:32,400 Speaker 4: both offense and defense. That's crazy. We know George Washington 490 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 4: has haymaker ability because it does have talent, but I 491 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,720 Speaker 4: think the Bills are too good. You take away Castro 492 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,120 Speaker 4: and I think GW kind of cracks. I think Sleugh 493 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 4: can do that. What are your thoughts, Matt again, kempom 494 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 4: minus eleven towards Slough. 495 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, it just thinks for I think he think Slou's 496 00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 3: gonna drop one of these games coming down the stretch, 497 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 3: and I don't think it's this one. 498 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 1: But you're right. 499 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:57,640 Speaker 3: The haymaker punch ability that George Washington has is substantial. 500 00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: And Dayton comes to town friedag GYM. 501 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 3: I don't think looking ahead past this team, but the 502 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 3: arch Bear rivalry is obviously very meaningful. And that's a 503 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 3: quick turn after the Tuesday game coming back from middle 504 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,920 Speaker 3: of nowhere Upstate New York after dominating the bodies. My god, 505 00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 3: they couldn't miss You. Wonder if SLU is going to 506 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 3: play their A game. I think they play a B 507 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 3: game here. But what George Washington team shows up. I 508 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 3: have no idea. 509 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: I never have any idea. 510 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 5: Yeah, George Washington is one of those like talented teams 511 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 5: that can play up and has has shown it a 512 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 5: little bit this year. But I don't know if I'm 513 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 5: going to get it. I mean, like the South Florida 514 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 5: win has aged pretty well. They competed really solidly with 515 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 5: Florida on a neutral court, and to your point, and 516 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 5: SLEW is in a weird spot here with coming off 517 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 5: an unbelievable performance at Saint Mountaventure. I think they hit 518 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 5: fourteen threes in the first half. It was never ever 519 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 5: close in one of the what's supposed to be a 520 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 5: tough road environment against one of the best coaches in 521 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 5: the conference. And arch Baron is huge for SLEW fans, 522 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 5: for Dayton fans. If you live in the Saint Louis area, 523 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 5: get to Schaefitz on Friday night, I think that's going 524 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 5: to be a popping atmosphere they. 525 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 2: Usually wipe that game out. 526 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,679 Speaker 5: If I remember the bill can Blizzard is often what 527 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 5: they go with their so check that out. But I 528 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 5: would lean towards GW getting doubles here. 529 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 2: Kai. 530 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 5: I just am not willing to go against Slough. I 531 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 5: know they kind of got bumpy down the stretch against Dukane, 532 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 5: but they also handled that game. They're up twelve with 533 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 5: five minutes left and it got down to four. I 534 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 5: think that was more of just like a sometimes SLU 535 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 5: is going to have a small stretch, so I don't 536 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 5: want to fade them. I just think it's a big 537 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 5: number for a GW team that has enough talent and 538 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,600 Speaker 5: depth to play up against this SLEU team. 539 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 4: I'm with you guys on that one. Yes, staying away. 540 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 4: Don't evade my slup bills. They're so great, Josh shirts Jim. 541 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 4: How about this one Richmond at VCU A rivalry game. 542 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 4: I don't know if this one has a fancy name, 543 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 4: but they both the schools. Both these schools are located 544 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 4: and basically the same area. VCU still in the hunt 545 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 4: for at large, but I would say it certainly cannot 546 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 4: lose this game. The Spiders, they've lost three in a row. Four, 547 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 4: the last five kind of plummeting back down to earth 548 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 4: after really a solid non con This up tempo game 549 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 4: scares me. I think both teams want to run Jim, 550 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:09,920 Speaker 4: but I do think the Spiders can hang around. That's 551 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 4: my initial inkling that Richmond can hang around doubles Ken 552 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 4: Palm's got a VC minus twelve. 553 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna point the finger at myself here and 554 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 5: be like, why was I not fading both of these 555 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 5: teams on Saturday? Because this rivalry is massive and it's 556 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 5: such a huge look ahead and both teams did not cover. 557 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 5: Neither team covered, so it would have been probably a 558 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,200 Speaker 5: good fade spot over the weekend. I just missed it. 559 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 5: But double digits again. Yeah, Richmond, they were really solid 560 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 5: early in the season, cracked the top one hundred. They've 561 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 5: drifted a little off that pace now I think they 562 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 5: can compete. I was going to look up the historic 563 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,600 Speaker 5: stats for the matchup with then it's. 564 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 3: Been one side and I'm almost positive, like VCU dominates 565 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 3: this match. 566 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, the athleticism usually is overwhelming for Mooney, but it's 567 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 5: because it's a new coach, because it's Martelli and it's 568 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 5: not Odahm or Rhodes or whoever's currently at the operations. 569 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 5: They kind of just roteating cast of characters of VCU 570 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 5: because they placed the coaches in the P five every year. 571 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,320 Speaker 5: It is still a very athletic team with depth in size, 572 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 5: and that worries me for Richmond. So rivalry game double 573 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 5: digits Kai thinking about it, no travel at all, but 574 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 5: the historical precedent of Mooney's team struggling with this kind 575 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 5: of length athleticism scares me off it. 576 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, Aileen Richmond, it might be a bet for me. 577 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 3: I need to see what the number comes in. But 578 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 3: they got killed by slow all right, A lot of 579 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 3: teams do. Rhode Islands. I think a good team that's 580 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 3: just annoyingly bad in the record column. And then George 581 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,880 Speaker 3: Washington we talked about how they can play their fast 582 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 3: pass as good as any in this conference. 583 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: And I'm not a huge VS. You fan, I'm just not. 584 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 3: I think their offense has been a little bit of 585 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 3: herky jerky, and I know Richmond's been dominated by them. 586 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,040 Speaker 3: But in the cross town thinking a new coach to reset, 587 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 3: I think Mooney keeps it close. 588 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 4: We'll see that. Okay, all right, fellas, let's go to 589 00:26:50,160 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 4: live docshs mine. I got some options for you. Quick 590 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 4: flashback to last week. Our options were pretty good against 591 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 4: the spread. Columbia did get waxed by Yale, so no 592 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 4: Columbia there. But Seaton Hall hung around with Saint John's. 593 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 4: They covered. Colorado covered the spread against Kansas depending what 594 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 4: number you got, they that was one of those split 595 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 4: ones where the number did move towards Colorado and would 596 00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 4: not have covered the kimpom spread. Minnesota took Ohio State 597 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 4: to overtime and then lost by eight. Again I think 598 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 4: depending on your number, either covered or he didn't. And 599 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 4: then Utah covered easily against Kansas State. We didn't take 600 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 4: all these games, but they were options and fellas. I 601 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,399 Speaker 4: have some options for you this week. On Monday, I 602 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 4: got one. I got Abline Christian at Tarleton. ACU has 603 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 4: already beaten Tarleton. They have similar styles with the way 604 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:47,719 Speaker 4: they forced turn overshoot free throws. Then Tuesday, I'll give 605 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 4: you a four pack and Jim, you can pick and 606 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 4: choose or you can go totally off the board. Here 607 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,239 Speaker 4: Missouri goes to Alabama. I know it's crazy, but the 608 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 4: Tigers plus eleven per kimpom, they have beaten good teams 609 00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 4: before they can play up io plus seven at Kent 610 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,919 Speaker 4: State Georgia Tech again, another crazy one plus eleven at 611 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 4: Virginia Tech, and do we tempt the gods with UMass 612 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 4: plus eleven at Miami of Ohio finally bringing down the RedHawks. 613 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:14,640 Speaker 4: Thoughts on those games or you going elsewhere? 614 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 5: I maybe we should discuss it now or not. I'm 615 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 5: gonna end up on the tide in that game, I 616 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 5: think spot wise, I. 617 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 4: Don't like you. 618 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:28,479 Speaker 5: Missouri had the double buzzer beater game at and then 619 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 5: yeah Bama off the loss to Tennessee. 620 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,160 Speaker 2: Did you guys see Tennessee's tweet. 621 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 4: By the way, yes, remind remind me. 622 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 5: It was good of the Valls shouting at Betty Gaco 623 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 5: and it said like Delaware eighty six ers your next Yeah, yeah. 624 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 2: Bring on the g League. 625 00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 5: Just just really good sense of humor from the Balls 626 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 5: social media team. 627 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 2: They respected them. 628 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 5: But I do think that Spot's awesome for Alabama. Question 629 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 5: is whether they're going to be healthy with Holloway and 630 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,719 Speaker 5: Amari Allen, who I think are like two of their 631 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 5: three most important players after le Baron Filond So got 632 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 5: to keep an eye on that. Attempted by Ohio. Kent 633 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 5: State obviously had the disappointment against mynam Ohio, but that's 634 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 5: probably not lingering as much anymore. Georgia Tech, Matthew, I 635 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 5: love them against the top top top of the ACC 636 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 5: But is Virginia Tech good enough for them to show 637 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 5: up in the usual yellow jackets dog thrown in the 638 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 5: side that's dotted Myers. 639 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: I don't know. 640 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: I can't quite I had that was written down too. 641 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 5: I'm gonna end up more yeahs as we get to 642 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 5: the end and get through the next section. 643 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 2: Favorite. 644 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 5: I will be on more favorites this week than dogs, 645 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 5: just the way the the slate works out on Monday Tuesday. 646 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 5: So kayak, I'm not sadly gonna go hand in hand 647 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 5: with you on any of these, Okay, Matthew, I. 648 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 3: Had Rhode Island written down going to Dayton. I bet 649 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 3: they'll begin like eight. Kempom has its six for Dayton 650 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 3: to the arch parent the other side of that one, 651 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:57,840 Speaker 3: and then Providence at Yukon after Providence, just totally. I mean, 652 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 3: I didn't watch Second's funny. I watched the first half, 653 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 3: and I didn't watch a lick of the second half. 654 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 3: I don't know what happened but that offense could get going, 655 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 3: and we talked about Yukon has been a. 656 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: Little bit dicey. 657 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,600 Speaker 3: You're obviously getting a huge you know, payout for that's 658 00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 3: probably gonna be you know, twelve hundred to one. There's 659 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 3: plus twelve hundred, so I might yeah, Lester City tied. 660 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:23,880 Speaker 2: Back my intrigue. Interesting. 661 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: I think Providence might be a couch changed dabble. 662 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 4: For me, kay. Interesting. I will talk about them in 663 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 4: the spots section for sure. I'm going to aveline Fellas again. 664 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 4: This game is going to be absolutely chaos. Lots of turnovers, 665 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 4: lots of free throws. It's just high variants and the 666 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 4: high variance game. Obviously. I think the dog is a 667 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 4: good money line bet, and again Ablien's beating Tarlton once 668 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 4: this year. I will stay off off Mazoo. I don't 669 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 4: like Bam off a loss Ohio. I just think Ken 670 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 4: State is kind of a vulnerable favorite. They're off two 671 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 4: overtime losses. They're insane rebounders, but they're just streaky and 672 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 4: they're very loose with the ball. Definitely able to lose 673 00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 4: any night, But I am going to go with u 674 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 4: mass Fellas. Miami keeps playing with fire. They're gonna get 675 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 4: burned eventually. And I don't think this U mass team 676 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 4: is a pushover. They did beat Tleedom Buffalo recently, They've 677 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 4: beaten Florida State earlier this season. It's a very high 678 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 4: tempo game, high scoring, and I definitely am worried about 679 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 4: umasses into your defense. I'm worried about they're fouling. They 680 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 4: can shoot, and they have positional size, and I will 681 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 4: take them at plus eleven. Maybe not money line bet there, 682 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 4: Jim found I like, well, first I want to ask 683 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 4: is Nebraska live? Do they count as a live I 684 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 4: think Nebraska is absolutely live. Yes, you may take them 685 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 4: if you want. Yeah. 686 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 5: I mean it's it's such a high variance game. Every 687 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 5: Nebraska game can be high variance because the amount of 688 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 5: three shot on both sides. The one I'm going to take, 689 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 5: and it hurts me because it's against the team that 690 00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 5: I have loved most of the season, But I'm leaning 691 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 5: towards the Syracuse plus ten against NC State. They Syracuse 692 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 5: did just lose at home to Miami Florida, and they 693 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 5: have been due for some some three point shooting regression 694 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 5: on both ends of the floor. I talked about that 695 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 5: on the weekend episode of BEC and they got a 696 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 5: little bit against Miami. And by a little bit of that, 697 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 5: I mean Miami shot fifty four percent from three and 698 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,479 Speaker 5: Syracuse shot twenty nine, so at least maybe they got 699 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 5: some of it out of the way. It also just 700 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 5: has to do the NC State being relatively inconsistent, like 701 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 5: it took a while to get away from Pitt on 702 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 5: the road and only won by single digits, lost. 703 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 2: At home to Georgia Tech. 704 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 5: I like that team when they're up and they go 705 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 5: to Clemson and they compete in that one, but I 706 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 5: think they could sleep walk through this one. And Syracuse 707 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 5: at least has the talent Donny Freeman's gonna be a 708 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 5: tough match up there. And I'll throw in Syracuse plus ten. 709 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 5: I won't take it below that, but I'll throw that 710 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 5: one on the card. 711 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 4: I like it Anti State, very high variance. 712 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 3: Matthew, Yes, yeah, I agree. And they didn't play consistent. 713 00:32:41,080 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 3: Now they covered this weekend, but they were not consistent. 714 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 3: I think had to make like multiple runs and Wade 715 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,239 Speaker 3: just kind of I think has said that's who we are. 716 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 3: And with Darian Williams continuing to does not look like 717 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 3: himself and Holliman just came back. But yeah, that team 718 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 3: just doesn't have like the the talent that I think 719 00:32:58,640 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 3: we sort of thought preseason. 720 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: So I think they're gonna have to kind of mix 721 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: a matching. 722 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,200 Speaker 3: They're gonna find themselves some close games against middling A 723 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 3: SEC teams that could doom their their turney. 724 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 4: Birth alrighty favorite favorites here we come. Last week two 725 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 4: games you talked about, Iowa couldn't get away from Rutgers. Yeah, 726 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 4: it was a close game, but Colorado State absolutely murdered 727 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 4: air Force. Air Force might just be on auto fade 728 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 4: for the rest of the season. It's a bad team 729 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 4: and Joe Scott, their coach, is now on the outs. 730 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 5: So if they play a team of the Pulse, yeah, 731 00:33:27,440 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 5: like any of those top eight, their top seven, Like, 732 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 5: maybe I won't fade them against San Jose State, but 733 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 5: anybody else like the Digital lose to Boise by forty 734 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 5: this weekend. 735 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 4: Yes, And speaking of Boise Gym, they make my list 736 00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 4: this week for favorite favorites. They're minus ten per kmpom 737 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 4: at San Jose State. I just think the Spartans aren't 738 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:49,320 Speaker 4: good and they've been getting beaten handily lately, with one 739 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 4: exception Wyoming game. Other than that had not been very good. 740 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 4: I think Arkansas minus four per km pom at Oklahoma 741 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 4: is a strong favorite this week because I think ou 742 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 4: is cooked. Miszoo I think was the last straw. I 743 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,040 Speaker 4: think Arkansas rolls here. Porter I think is on the 744 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 4: way out. Unfortunately, we love Porter Moser, but it hasn't 745 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 4: been in the cars room this year. And then k 746 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 4: State has just been bad. West Virginia minus eight versus 747 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,600 Speaker 4: k State hosting the Wildcats with a bunch of injuries. 748 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 4: They scraped by Utah, they weren't competitive against Kansas. I 749 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 4: just think, I man, I see a wounded deer in 750 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 4: Kansas State Wildcats, So I might be targeting West Virginia here. 751 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,279 Speaker 4: Do you like any of those favorites? Do you have 752 00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 4: some of your own? 753 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 3: Just looking at West Virginia's splits this season? As a 754 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 3: they're eight and four against the number at home, but 755 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 3: as a favorite, they're only six and six. 756 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 1: It's just hodge in that team. 757 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 3: That's just not a team that I trust to like 758 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 3: win by margin. Is as much as I dislike k State, 759 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 3: I honestly none of the I the Oklahoma one was 760 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 3: the one I was close to pulling trigger. 761 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: I just will see what that price comes in at. 762 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 3: But I'm with you. I think they're just that kind 763 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 3: of broke them the missoo thing. I think they're just 764 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 3: their spirits broken. Feels like the TCU game when they 765 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 3: blew the KU won at Fog and they came home 766 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 3: and got boat raced. Just it feels like that's a 767 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 3: broken maybe not the whole year, but just for the 768 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 3: next game. I don't know how you don't sulk about 769 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:09,280 Speaker 3: that one. 770 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's one. I think I buy most of your 771 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 5: three here, Kai. The one thing I'll mention with. There's 772 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 5: really personnel stuff involved in a couple of others, Like 773 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:21,720 Speaker 5: if McGriff is out for K State, I think maybe 774 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:23,959 Speaker 5: you get a little more friendly with West Virginia there. 775 00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 5: That's a fun little matchup of former UNC Wilmington centers 776 00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 5: if McGriff plays, because Obioha is the West Virginia big 777 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 5: man in there. 778 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:32,400 Speaker 2: So I'm sure those guys. 779 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 5: Will renew some interior rivalry from practice. And then you 780 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 5: mentioned San Jose State actually being a little bit competitive 781 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:42,840 Speaker 5: this weekend, and they did get Colby Garland back for 782 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 5: that game. They had Jermaine Washington back for two. They 783 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 5: still don't have Yaff at Moundy. They still don't have 784 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 5: Javon Hannah, so two of their opening night starters or 785 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 5: consistent starters are still not in there. Still short handed, 786 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 5: but at least they've got some of that some of 787 00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:00,360 Speaker 5: that juice back in the lineup because they were completely 788 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 5: walking wounded, like missing four of their best five players 789 00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 5: for a long time. Rose Borrow is still out to 790 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 5: he matters, he's a starter, so they're trying to figure 791 00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:11,399 Speaker 5: it out. I'm gonna scare stay scared on that one. 792 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 5: I will back Virginia though, Kai on the road minus 793 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,360 Speaker 5: seven at Notre Dame. The Joy Center not an environment 794 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,879 Speaker 5: I am afraid of for a road favorite Notre Dame. 795 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 5: There's a lot of fans that are just headed up 796 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,200 Speaker 5: to here. With Shrewsbury, I don't think he's real engaging 797 00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 5: with the student's body and the fans in general. And 798 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,440 Speaker 5: Virginia just blew a big lead to North Carolina. I 799 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 5: think that's going to stick in their crawl a little bit. 800 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 5: Their style travels really well on the road. They've got 801 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,240 Speaker 5: a bunch of good road winds already in the ACC 802 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 5: and in the non conference. I think they get another 803 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 5: one there with the offensive rebounding the rim protection that 804 00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 5: they have. Love Virginia minus seven on the road at 805 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 5: Notre Dame. 806 00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, good shout, Jim. I definitely think towards the who's there, 807 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,360 Speaker 4: I'm going to lock in Arkansas officially there again. Minus 808 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 4: four for Kimpom. I'm not sure with them with the 809 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 4: market's going to go on that one, I would assume 810 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 4: they'd probably be on Arkansas, but I'll say up to 811 00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 4: minus five for the Hogs against Ou. All Right, spots 812 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 4: fellas last week Matt called out a couple of big 813 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:15,400 Speaker 4: sky spots. North Northern Colorado failed against Montana State NAU 814 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 4: got wrecked against Montana, so not great big sky there. 815 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 4: Indiana did cover against Michigan just barely, as we mentioned previously. 816 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 4: Now Kent State should have beatn Miami Ohio outright fantastic spot. 817 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 4: They ended up losing by six and ot, which means 818 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 4: I think my Ambohio covered that game. 819 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 2: They did that. 820 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, and then Ohio Iowa State great shout destroyed UCF 821 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 4: by thirty coming off couple losses. That was a easy 822 00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 4: win for the Clones. So this week Monday, nothing really obviously, Yes, 823 00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 4: keep an eye out for bad travel news. There's a 824 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 4: lot of weather going on right now. It seems across 825 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 4: the entire United States, but certainly the Midwest and in 826 00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 4: the South a bit, so there could be some some 827 00:37:58,200 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 4: difficulty getting across the country. Some good spots to fade 828 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 4: some road teams Tuesday Fellas, I have a couple picked 829 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 4: out here, and you guys can add a couple. Arizona 830 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 4: State at UCF is an interesting one because you have 831 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:13,840 Speaker 4: Arizona State coming off a giant win after Bobby Hurley 832 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 4: pretty much pouted to the media about how he's lost 833 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 4: the team and they beat Cincinnati and they're traveling to Florida, 834 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,839 Speaker 4: but UCF is flying back from the Mountain trip. They 835 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,320 Speaker 4: just wanted Colorado. A very impressive game. They look great. 836 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 4: Their minus eight for Kimpom, so that's more of an 837 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:29,840 Speaker 4: I don't know what to do with this one spot. 838 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 4: And then here's the one that we mentioned earlier. The 839 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 4: give up game is when I'm questioning this one. Jim 840 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 4: Providence at Yukon. Yukon sixteen point favorite per Kimpom is huge, 841 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 4: but after Providence blew that big leaded home on their 842 00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 4: home floor against Georgetown of all teams against Ed Cooley 843 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 4: of all teams. Now you're traveling to Yukon, a team 844 00:38:48,239 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 4: that they blew a game against in overtime as well. 845 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,279 Speaker 4: This season, I kind of think Yukon smashes them and 846 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:57,120 Speaker 4: it's Providence's season is just like, ah, we're done. But 847 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:58,839 Speaker 4: thoughts on add them if you want. 848 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 5: I'm having a time with that, that Providence Yukon one, 849 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 5: because on one hand, you have like, oh, we can 850 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 5: compete with this team. We've done it already, We've done 851 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:07,960 Speaker 5: it once. Let's let's prove we can go out and 852 00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 5: get it. And maybe this is like the line in 853 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,440 Speaker 5: the sand after blowing it to Georgetown's like, all right, 854 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:15,719 Speaker 5: we got one crack at the undefeated. 855 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 2: Team and the standings. 856 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 5: This is where we, you know, maybe prevent our season 857 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,880 Speaker 5: from being over. I'm a little scared of that. And 858 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 5: has mentioned Yukon has not covered six in a row, 859 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,720 Speaker 5: like they just have not been a convincing favorite. Recently, 860 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 5: Providence has moved to Oswin the big guy to the bench. 861 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 5: I guess he came back into the starting lineup. They 862 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 5: need him out there against Terrace Reid and the paint. 863 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,280 Speaker 5: But the Yukon offense just hasn't gotten in rhythm quite yet, 864 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 5: so I'm I'm staying away from that. And yeah, Kai 865 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 5: wanted to back UCF, but the fact that they're traveling 866 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 5: almost as far as ASU, that one just couldn't quite 867 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:51,080 Speaker 5: get there two spots. I am going to take Alabama 868 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:54,399 Speaker 5: minus eleven. Mentioned that earlier. I kind of hope it's 869 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 5: like eight and a half if one of Holloway or 870 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 5: Allen is not playing. But we'll see what the market says. 871 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 5: I think the market bet Alabama despite their absence because 872 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:06,240 Speaker 5: of the Bettioco thing, and market bet them up against Tennessee. 873 00:40:06,640 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 5: So I'm gonna have. 874 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 4: To monitor that. 875 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:08,680 Speaker 2: I'd like it to be eleven. 876 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 5: And then Maddie, I'm gonna go the Georgia Bulldogs team 877 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,319 Speaker 5: that maybe I've not given enough credit to, but they 878 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 5: got blasted at Texas in the second half this weekend, 879 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 5: like just completely outclassed in the second half. And I'm 880 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 5: gonna sell high on Tennessee off that huge road win 881 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 5: against Alabama. I think that's a good midweek spot to 882 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 5: back the home team right around to pick it's minus one, 883 00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 5: I bet it up to minus three. I think they 884 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 5: can beat the in the paint with surreal against that 885 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 5: rebounding of Tennessee. So two sec ones they're forming that 886 00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,320 Speaker 5: Alabama and Georgia. 887 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 3: I'll just confirm Providence. You know, I talked earlier this 888 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 3: will be an official play for me. I'm a smaller 889 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:44,400 Speaker 3: card this. 890 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: I again. Second half. I don't know what happened. 891 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 3: I was like a Twilight Zone experience, but I just 892 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 3: liked how Providence's offense, which is very much like wing 893 00:40:55,280 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 3: positionalist creators with Box and Mela and so. But he 894 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 3: can get downhill and Yukon's defense has obviously been really good, 895 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:05,360 Speaker 3: but they're you know they if they have a weak 896 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 3: part defensively, it's probably on the wing. And I think 897 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,719 Speaker 3: that's maybe where Province can maybe spread and shred a 898 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 3: little bit. And obviously the boards are a concern. Garden 899 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 3: terras ringed is a major concern. Uh maybe this is 900 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,320 Speaker 3: a Duncan pal hits four of eight from three in 901 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 3: a stretch type spot, just a lot of avenues where 902 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 3: I think there's some some real compete here and burn 903 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,480 Speaker 3: the boats situation after what feels like could be that 904 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 3: the season killer for the Friars. But like you got nothing, 905 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:31,359 Speaker 3: you got house money, had nothing to lose, why not 906 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 3: go into stores, play your play your butts off, and 907 00:41:34,920 --> 00:41:37,479 Speaker 3: go out, you know again, cover against a team hasn't 908 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 3: covered in six straight Yeah? 909 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 4: I like him, Matt Yeah. And why why be confident 910 00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 4: in a sixteen point favorite Yukon after what we've seen recently? 911 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,280 Speaker 4: Great team but not covering and we know great teams 912 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,479 Speaker 4: cover nothing for me? Though officially in the spot section, 913 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:57,080 Speaker 4: fellas we in our podcast here with trash before we 914 00:41:57,120 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 4: recap our bets. What's that smell? It stinks me? This trash, 915 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:05,800 Speaker 4: the sweet, sweet trash. 916 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:09,439 Speaker 1: The trash is a gold mine, old mine. 917 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 4: Great trash section. Last week Fellas direxel in Tawson was 918 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,480 Speaker 4: indeed a trip to the dentist. As advertised. It was 919 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,759 Speaker 4: a fifty nine to fifty eight point game, scoring game 920 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,560 Speaker 4: in favor of the Tigers. They went by one in 921 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:24,959 Speaker 4: an ugly battle, one hundred and seventeen points total. Yuck. 922 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,920 Speaker 4: Not many trash options this week. I went with the 923 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:29,920 Speaker 4: NAC because we haven't really talked to the NEC. A 924 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 4: whole lot Central Connecticut at Stonehill a sixty four point 925 00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 4: sixty four possession game excuse me, projected for Kim Pom 926 00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 4: and what surprised me. Here Jim was Central Connecticut minus 927 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,560 Speaker 4: two against Stonehill per Kim pom, sign me up. I 928 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 4: understand Central Connecticut hasn't been quite as strong as most 929 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:51,959 Speaker 4: expected to be, but Sellers is a great coach. They've 930 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:55,919 Speaker 4: beaten Stonehill this season, and Stonehill is a weird team 931 00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,400 Speaker 4: to try to peg down. They compete with LU, but 932 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,120 Speaker 4: they also lose to Saint Francis. They lost Chicago State. 933 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,080 Speaker 4: Give me Central Connecticut getting their mojo back here as 934 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:08,440 Speaker 4: a short favorite after they led the entirety of Game one. 935 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:10,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know what to do with them. I've 936 00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,879 Speaker 5: been I haven't watched Central Connecticut, but I followed them through. 937 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 5: They've like two very loyal fans on Twitter. I think 938 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 5: Matt morro the mid range jumper, and he is so 939 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,719 Speaker 5: mad at their defense right now. It's funny like they're 940 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,240 Speaker 5: three hundred and thirty six in the country, dead last 941 00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 5: in the NBC deservedly so to be this angry at 942 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,399 Speaker 5: their defense and they're not like that tiny you think 943 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:33,400 Speaker 5: it'd be like. I remember they've got some smaller guards 944 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:35,399 Speaker 5: in the past, but they're not quite that this year. 945 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:36,920 Speaker 2: Just can't get stops. 946 00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 5: I'm curious what happens with Stonehill following the collapse against LU, 947 00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 5: Like they sort of had that game one, We're going 948 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 5: to knock off the favorite, and then final like two 949 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 5: minutes just couldn't score and LU took control and got 950 00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 5: the W. So I do kind of lean Central Connecticut, 951 00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:55,439 Speaker 5: especially if you know we're highlighting a trash game here. 952 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 5: Had to bet it, I'd definitely be on the road 953 00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 5: Blue Devils. If people want to get into the dumpster 954 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 5: and kmucket around, I would certainly recommend CCSCU minus two. 955 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 5: But Matt, I'm going to sit as well. 956 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I lean their way too. 957 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 3: They've been just I thought they would be right there 958 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,120 Speaker 3: with LU, but I think LU is just they were 959 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:14,399 Speaker 3: the more talented team, and talent has played to its 960 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 3: form in ccsu's you know, maybe Patrick Seller's coaching mojo 961 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 3: just isn't up to the same magic as it was 962 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 3: last year, which is again, it's still a solid team, 963 00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 3: but I think he kind of convinced us all they 964 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 3: could hang with Lu's talent. 965 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:28,879 Speaker 1: That just hasn't been the case this year. 966 00:44:30,120 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 4: All Right, Phillis, let's recap betting this week again. Really 967 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 4: good week last week for the boys. I'm going with 968 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 4: Arizona as a short favorite at BUYU. I'm going with 969 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 4: Purdue as a presumably short favor against Indiana Nebraska. I'm 970 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 4: taking the undefeated team as a big dog, or at 971 00:44:47,600 --> 00:44:49,920 Speaker 4: least an almost big dog. I think it's gonna get 972 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 4: close to ten. Well, we saw already early looks ten 973 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,000 Speaker 4: and a half in the market. I take you down 974 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 4: to nine UMass plus eleven Miam of Ohio. I'm going 975 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 4: to do it Ablain Christian plus seven ish, but also 976 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,879 Speaker 4: a little sprinkle against Charleton, Arkansas minus four minus five 977 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 4: against Oklahoma, and finally Central Connecticut minus two to two 978 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,919 Speaker 4: and a half against stone Hill. That's my seven. Jim, 979 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 4: big week for me this week. 980 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:14,359 Speaker 2: I love a kayak. 981 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:16,800 Speaker 5: Put yourself out there, ride the high of the confidence 982 00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:19,719 Speaker 5: from last week. I will confirm that ten and a 983 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:23,239 Speaker 5: half is available on FanDuel right now. It's minus one 984 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 5: o two for plus ten and a half that's taken. 985 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 4: So yep, I'm. 986 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:30,200 Speaker 5: Surprised that that's a available and be juiced the way 987 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,239 Speaker 5: that it is because I'm going to sync up with 988 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,800 Speaker 5: you on the first three. I'm on Arizona as that 989 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,280 Speaker 5: short road favorite, Perdue as a slightly longer road favorite 990 00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:41,719 Speaker 5: round four. I would last five Nebraska down to nine 991 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 5: in that road game, maybe as tiny sprinkle on the 992 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 5: money line. I do think that's gonna be a really 993 00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 5: popular side, just because Michigan hasn't been playing well and 994 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:53,799 Speaker 5: Nebraska is starting to capture the hearts and minds of 995 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:57,920 Speaker 5: the masses. Then I'm going Georgia minus one, Vandy minus seven, 996 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 5: Alabama minus eleven. I'm really curious what that line ends 997 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:05,400 Speaker 5: up being with the injuries on the Tide side, but 998 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,919 Speaker 5: I'll laugh to that eleven and then hunting the dog 999 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 5: to include here Syracuse plus ten feels not good to 1000 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 5: back Red Autrey Matthew good look on you very good lately. 1001 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 5: But on the road at erratic NC State here I 1002 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 5: am taking Red Autry against wild Wade. We'll see how 1003 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 5: that ages over the next two days. 1004 00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, your your back comes down to Donnie Freeman basically, 1005 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:30,359 Speaker 3: So it's not a coaching bet, it's a Donnie Freeman play. 1006 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: Well, I got. 1007 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 3: Three, keeping it tight. I go with Providence. I think 1008 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 3: fourteen is Rob Drawlin's so I was seventeen. I think 1009 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:41,040 Speaker 3: on Ken Pom six sixteen sixteen Man. 1010 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 1: Twelve is too low. 1011 00:46:42,320 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 3: I think fourteenth where I drawed the line on that 1012 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 3: one Ohio six will be my strike there Ken Palm eight, 1013 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 3: I think I need five is probably a reach. I 1014 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 3: think I need at least six, and then Richmond double 1015 00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 3: digits ten. I probably will split that between first seven 1016 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:57,960 Speaker 3: full game, it's just VCU at home. The Seagle Center 1017 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:01,760 Speaker 3: has been a place for second half on or Berry dogs. 1018 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:03,799 Speaker 1: That's where dogs go to die. So I'm price to 1019 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 1: put that. 1020 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 3: Maybe you didn't get out as our guys saying says 1021 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 3: in and out first half, but I'll commit to a 1022 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:10,960 Speaker 3: full game wager as well as the Crosstown mooney Men 1023 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:12,200 Speaker 3: get it done. 1024 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 4: All right, fellows, love it.
