Thor So, how is week one for you? 13 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,200 Speaker 1: And are you ready and all juiced up for Week two? 14 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 3: It was great? Yeah, having the five straight days of 15 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 3: college football. Last night with no college football on, I 16 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 3: was like, you know, an anchorman when Burgundy's just wandering 17 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 3: around the streets with the warm milk. It was like, me, last. 18 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 2: Night was a bad choice. 19 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, college football was a bad choice. But you know, 20 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 3: we got to get through a couple more days and 21 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 3: then we'll get it back. But yeah, having the full 22 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 3: card in week one was super fun. 23 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, And actually, you know how we usually are going 24 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: to do these shows. Is We're gonna kick off start 25 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: talking about the Thursday and Friday games. But the next 26 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 1: two weeks we got to find something extra because there's 27 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: not a lot of action on There's no action on 28 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: either Thursday and only a couple games on Friday. 29 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:21,760 Speaker 2: This week. 30 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: The Friday games are Louisville at UCF. UCF is a 31 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: six and a half point favorite, the over sixty one 32 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: and a half. 33 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 2: There. 34 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: I know you are a little on the Louisville side, 35 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: but probably more of a stay away. Boise State is 36 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: a sixteen and a half point favorite at New Mexico 37 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: the overs forty four. There. You like Boise State pretty 38 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: handedly in that game, So let's start with that one thorpe. 39 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,919 Speaker 1: We will obviously talk about the top five games also 40 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: and then the games that you like the most this week, 41 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: but let's start out with Boise State and New Mexico. 42 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 1: Why why is Boisse tak going to win this game 43 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: by more than three touchdowns? 44 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 3: Well, the reason the line is depressed because Boise State 45 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 3: stunk in the first half last week. But that was 46 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 3: a Hank Bachmeyer production, you know what I mean. He 47 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 3: had thrown three turnovers and been benched and Boise State 48 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 3: had gotten down by three touchdowns before half the people 49 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 3: had even tuned in, you know, And so that game 50 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 3: totally got away from Boise immediately because of all these 51 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 3: turnovers from the starting quarterback and then they yanked him. 52 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 3: The backup looked pretty dang good. This kid named like 53 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 3: Teylon Green or I think is what his name is. 54 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 3: But not only do he look good as a freshman, 55 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 3: but he looked good in a far different way than 56 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 3: we have seen recent Boise State quarterbacks. Green ended up 57 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 3: rushing for more than one hundred yards against Oregon State. 58 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 3: Became the first quarterback since I believe twenty fourteen for 59 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 3: Boise State to rush for more than one hundred yards. 60 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 3: It's going to be interesting in this game who they 61 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 3: go with a quarterback? Do you go with the old 62 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 3: guard in Bachmeyer, who previously the number one thing you 63 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 3: could say about him was consistency, you know, I mean, 64 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 3: he was more you know, like the vein of like 65 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 3: the guys that they had in the past, like Ripping, 66 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 3: you know, being one of the most recent examples where 67 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 3: you know, you felt like you were going to get 68 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 3: the accuracy, maybe not the explosive stuff, but you know, 69 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 3: and you weren't gonna get anything outside of the pocket, 70 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 3: but you didn't get that last time. Is he going 71 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 3: to revert back into to old Hank or is he 72 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 3: gonna be bad Hank again if you go with him, 73 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 3: or are you gonna go with with with Green? And 74 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 3: then you you know, probably you're giving your offense more 75 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 3: variants there because he is less well known, but you're 76 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 3: certainly going to be improving the mobility behind center in 77 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 3: a way that again we haven't seen in almost a 78 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 3: decade of Boise State. So so that's one of the 79 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 3: interesting things to look at. But the Boise State also 80 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 3: had a couple of injuries in the first week. One 81 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 3: of them was to a rotational receiver, shouldn't matter much. 82 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 3: The other one was to their their top corner back. 83 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 3: But in this game that doesn't really matter either because 84 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 3: New Mexico can't throw the ball. Yeah, it's you know, 85 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 3: Miles Kendrick was was, you know, the old Kansas backup quarterback. 86 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 3: He was the the transferred over there. He's just a 87 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 3: little scrambler and they're trying to incorporate more option concepts 88 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 3: into their offense as well. New Mexico just wants to run, run, run. 89 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 3: Nothing that happened with Boise State is going to compromise 90 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 3: defending that. And so I think Boise State matches up 91 00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 3: pretty well defense against offense against New Mexico, and Boise 92 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 3: State's quarterback play can definitely not be as bad as 93 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: it was last week. I think last week's the result 94 00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 3: was a little bit fluky in that the game was 95 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 3: already over, you know, midway through the second quarter because 96 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 3: of these really bad decisions by Bachmeier. It's not a 97 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 3: game that you can put a lot of emphasis in 98 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 3: in terms of the predictability going forward, just because the 99 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 3: game script was you know, got away from both teams 100 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 3: right away, just because the way that things start out 101 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 3: first twenty minutes. So I do like Boise State. I 102 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,559 Speaker 3: feel like this line has gone too far the other way, 103 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 3: you know, sort of making an indictment of the way 104 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 3: that Boise State played in Week one, when I don't 105 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,279 Speaker 3: believe that that's transferable the week too. 106 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm with you right there. 107 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: This is you know, this might be an avoid because 108 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: we don't know what's going on with the quarterback at 109 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: Boise State. Like I would understand that, but I don't 110 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: think it really matters who starts a quarterback for Boise 111 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: State in this one. I think they're gonna smash New Mexico, 112 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: even in a road game. So it's a big line. 113 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: I understand not liking it, but it's also you get 114 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: itchy on Friday with no action on Thursday. For college, 115 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: you start to get itchy on Friday. Give me something. 116 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: If you're gonna take something on Friday, I would lay 117 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: the points and take Poise State, that's for sure. 118 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 3: For sure, And you know, going to the other one, 119 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 3: it's another example where you're going to get value. In 120 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 3: this case, it's on the underdog, but because of a 121 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 3: Week one result, right like Louisville shockingly gets stomped by 122 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 3: Syracuse the books, you know, and I downgraded Louisville in 123 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 3: my power rankings sure fairly significantly, and yet still my 124 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 3: line on this game is you se minus one point seven, 125 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 3: whereas Vegas is is minus five and a half. That 126 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 3: line being where it is, that spread being where it is. 127 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 3: It's more indicative of Vegas responding to the market, which 128 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 3: does not want to bet on Louisville after what it 129 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 3: saw in Week one, as opposed to reality you would 130 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 3: expect at least somewhat of Louisville cannot play as bad 131 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 3: as they did in Week one. I just don't believe it, 132 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 3: Like I don't believe that that's going to be the 133 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 3: team that they are all season long. So I do 134 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 3: think there's a little bit of value on Louisville. It's 135 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 3: just you have to have some courage to bet them 136 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 3: because of the way they looked in Week one. 137 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: Stones, you gotta have the stones to bet on Louisville. 138 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: You're absolutely right. I don't have it after seeing that game. 139 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 1: I just don't want to mess with Louisville at all whatsoever. 140 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: I think if I've taken something in that game, it's 141 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: probably the under sixty one and a half because Louisville's 142 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: offense looks so pathetic. But I'm probably just gonna not 143 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: touch it. 144 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 3: Now. 145 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 1: Here's some games, and obviously these number change. I mean, 146 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: you know, any of you that have a you know, 147 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: a subscription to some of these places, you can see 148 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: where the money is getting laid laid so you can 149 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,160 Speaker 1: see where the cash is going, where the tickets are going, 150 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: and that kind of stuff. I just wanted to go 151 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: over some cash games that are getting overwhelming majority right now. Now, look, 152 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: the majority of the bets come in Friday and Saturday, 153 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: So this is just for the early betters, but usually 154 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: the early betters of the sharps, you know, the smart 155 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: people that work within the industry and things like that. 156 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: So I just wanted to go over a couple of 157 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: these games. You're gonna run down them real quick, and 158 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: you talk about any of them that intrigue you. We got, 159 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: you know, a majority of the cash, and I want 160 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: to give out numbers because those are usual behind paywalls 161 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. 162 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: But Ohio State. 163 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: Laying the forty four and a half enormous number against 164 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: Arkansas State has a lot wake Forest minus thirteen and 165 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 1: a half at Vandy is getting a lot of love. 166 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: UTSA minus two and a half against Army South Carolina 167 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: at Arkansas over fifty three is getting some love, surprisingly 168 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 1: to me, at Charlotte under sixty five and a half 169 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: is getting a lot of love. ECU minus twelve and 170 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: a half versus ODU UAB laying nine and a half 171 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: at Liberty. Liberty is down a quarterback, most likely Syracuse 172 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 1: at Yukon under forty nine is getting bet on EMU 173 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: plus eleven and a half at Louisiana, Arizona State at 174 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,400 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State over fifty seven and a half in BC 175 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: plus two and a half verset Virginia Tech, which both 176 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: those teams look pathetic last week. But so you know, 177 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 1: mainly we're laying points here, a couple over unders there. 178 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: I think that was four over unders and what would 179 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: that be the c one two, three, four, five over unders? 180 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 1: And then the rest against the spread. Not many where 181 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: we're taking points outside of EMU plus eleven and a half. 182 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 1: Any of these that that you like thor and you're 183 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 1: kind of with the public on, we. 184 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 3: Might we might have to go over one more time. 185 00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 3: My memories, my SNAM memory is pretty good. 186 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 2: But not that good it I thought you're on the sheet. 187 00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 1: That's my bad. I will send it to you again. 188 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 3: Ohio State. That line is objectively fair. That's right where 189 00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,079 Speaker 3: my my number is on it. The the Army one 190 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 3: was interesting because that is one of the examples this 191 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 3: week where the market favorite is different than mine, where 192 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 3: I think the wrong team is favorite. My line on 193 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 3: that game is Army minus one point one. UTSA is 194 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 3: minus two and a half. Live. You know UTSA A 195 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 3: lot of people were watching when they kept that game 196 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 3: really close against Houston. They easily could have won that game. 197 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 3: I think that they're getting a little bit of credit 198 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 3: for that, which might explain why there's that three point 199 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 3: six point discrepancy. One of the ones that I liked 200 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 3: really early in the one of my early week bets 201 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 3: was on Syracuse that that was the line that opened 202 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 3: at minus twenty and a half. That was a mistake 203 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 3: by Vegas. They they opened that too low. It seemed 204 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 3: like that they were nodding at, you know, a better 205 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: performance coming up by Yukon than we had expected. Played 206 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 3: tightle with Utah. State might have won that game if 207 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 3: their starting quarterback hadn't gotten hurt beat the FCS opponent 208 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 3: last week. But the Vegas did not seem to be 209 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 3: recognizing that Syracuse was the team that just absolutely dropped 210 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 3: the hammer on Louisville, and so Syracuse wasn't getting the 211 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 3: respect that I felt that they would get. And I 212 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 3: talked with Thomas about that on her Sunday show. That 213 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,680 Speaker 3: line went from twenty and a half to now it's 214 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 3: twenty two and a half or whatever. I expect that 215 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 3: line to be like twenty four at kick under. 216 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: That's the one that's getting bet on the under the 217 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: Syracuse game. 218 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 2: I don't know. 219 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: This once again feels like it feels weird, like they 220 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: gave Yukon the respect. But then you would think this 221 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: number is under because traditionally both these offenses have stuck recently, 222 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 1: but they both look good. So under forty nine and 223 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,160 Speaker 1: a half and getting bet on a lot, I don't. 224 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 1: It just feels like I don't want to touch it. 225 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: It feels the opposite of where I think. So I 226 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: think it almost feels like somebody knows something I don't know. 227 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 1: You know, So what do you think of that over under? 228 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 3: Yeah? I probably won't touch it either. But Yukon's defense 229 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 3: has looked better than we expected it to be in 230 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 3: these first couple of weeks. They were hitting hard in 231 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 3: that Utah State game and people were pursuing the ball, 232 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 3: whereas in recent years you didn't see that kind of ever, 233 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 3: people flying around or you know, like you know, when 234 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 3: the guy got tackled, there's like four or five Yukon 235 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 3: guys around. We saw that in week one, Week two, 236 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 3: they shut out the lights on the FCS opponent. But 237 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 3: you know, I mean, I mean, but for Yukon over 238 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 3: the last couple of years. I guess that was impressive 239 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 3: holding that team to three points or whatever. Syracuse defense 240 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 3: looked awesome in Week one, so yeah, I mean, I 241 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 3: guess if I was a lean one way, it probably 242 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 3: would be the under. But we'll have to see how 243 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 3: Yukon can deal with that Syracuse offense that now has 244 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 3: a passing element, whereas previously it was just Schrader and 245 00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,200 Speaker 3: Tucker running out the shotgun spread. Now with Robert and 246 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 3: I coming in, the offensive coordinator that they got from Virginia, 247 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 3: a guy who's known for the sideline to sideline passing game. 248 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 3: Garrett Traiders passing in Week one ticked way up against Louisville. 249 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 3: Louisville certainly has a better defense than Yukon does, even 250 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 3: though Louisville doesn't appear to have a great one. So 251 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 3: you would think that Syracuse will be able to move 252 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: the ball on Yukon, but it probably a stay away 253 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: from me overall. 254 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: A couple of these other games will just reiterate him 255 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: here since you're not on the sheep, but wake fours 256 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: by thirteen and a half at Vandy, utsa two and 257 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: a half at Army. 258 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 3: Let's let's stop right there. So okay, good, Wake Forest 259 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 3: is getting Sam Hartman back. That line had started had 260 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 3: opened at six and a half, which was probably a 261 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 3: nod towards Vandy starting out too and all. But when 262 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 3: once that that Hartman thing was announced, the line jumps 263 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,960 Speaker 3: up six points. So that is interesting in and of itself. 264 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 3: That tells you that Las Vegas, that market, that that 265 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 3: hive mind, they think Sam Hartman is worth six points 266 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 3: on the spread I have. I've been to agree with 267 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 3: them on that he's worth a ton to that team, 268 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 3: and you're getting him back now. I would love to 269 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 3: fade Vandy on this number, because they're they're two and 270 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 3: all start it's it's a mirage. 271 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 2: Right, like, oh, come on, I know it is. 272 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 3: Hawaii now is one of the bottom three FBS teams 273 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 3: in my power rankings. They're down there with New Mexico 274 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 3: State and I think UMAs is the other one. And 275 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 3: then last week Vanderbilt beat an FCS team by like eleven, 276 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 3: you know, And so they're definitely not as good as 277 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,440 Speaker 3: as people think you're. You know that at least that 278 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 3: the record indicates. Whereas Wake Forest now, you'd think with 279 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 3: Hartman back that they they're not going to look exactly 280 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 3: like they did last year when they were so awesome 281 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 3: right away you wouldn't think, but they're they're going to 282 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 3: start to get back closer to that, so you have 283 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,480 Speaker 3: to tick them way up. It's just with the number 284 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 3: jumping up to where it did, that one goes right 285 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 3: in line with what my number was. My number on 286 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 3: that game is wake for It's minus twelve point four, 287 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 3: so it's it's basically right there at the thirteen number. 288 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 3: So I'm probably gonna stay away with from that, even 289 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 3: though my lean definitely would be towards Wait for Us. 290 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,320 Speaker 1: How about UTSA minus two and a half at an Army, Yeah, 291 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: so that. 292 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 3: One, I'm definitely leaning towards Army. Definitely my bet army 293 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 3: because I feel that Army should be favored, you know. 294 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 3: That's why I have them at minus one, Army at 295 00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:23,520 Speaker 3: minus one point one. Liveline on that is uts A 296 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 3: minus two and a half. And like I said, I 297 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 3: think that the reason this. 298 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: Is a market line correct or like this is so 299 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: we see UTSA take Houston to the brink three overtimes. 300 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: Their offense look good even though they lost in Seer 301 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: McCormick and all that stuff, and Army is just known 302 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: as a team that they're hit or miss. Sometimes they 303 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: hit and look good and go to bowl games. And 304 00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 1: SPANKA team like Houston who doesn't show up sometimes you know, 305 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: they're on the triple option. They win four games for 306 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: the whole season. So this, to me, this is a 307 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, this is a perception line. You just saw 308 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: Utsa take a ranked team to the brink. They did 309 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: drop it, but they're very good and they're coming off, 310 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: you know, a very good season last year. Army can 311 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: be hit or miss, So I think for me this 312 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 1: is kind of a stay away. 313 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 3: But you like Army, Yeah, I do. Yeah, at least 314 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 3: that's the way I lean. Ran. I have not bet 315 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 3: this game yet. I don't feel that I have to 316 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 3: because it's not over one of the key numbers for 317 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 3: someone that's interested in Army. With utsab and minus two 318 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 3: and a half, you can wait to see if you 319 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 3: can get three or three and a half. But you're 320 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 3: not risking anything by waiting. I mean that line could 321 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 3: move five points the other way and there's not going 322 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 3: to be a tangible difference in for Army betters at least, 323 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 3: So that's gonna be one where I'm waiting until game day. 324 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 3: But last week Army opened at Coastal Carolina. They lost 325 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 3: by ten. You know, again, going back to the perception thing, 326 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 3: I think people when they watch UTSA take Houston down 327 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 3: to the wire, they look far more impressive than Army 328 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 3: losing by ten to a Coastal Carolina team that wasn't 329 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 3: as impressive last year. But that was in part because 330 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 3: Grayce and McCall had missed that time with injuries. So yeah, 331 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 3: I do think that's a perception against reality line for sure. 332 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 1: I like it. I like it a couple of the 333 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 1: games here and then we'll go to the top five 334 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:14,560 Speaker 1: of the week. Do you like layon or do you 335 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: like the under on Maryland at Charlotte sixty five and 336 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: a half? Because Charlotte did look so pathetic last week. 337 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 3: The one thing you could point to to support that 338 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 3: would be and I haven't seen the most updated I 339 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 3: think Chris Reynolds is going to still be out Charlotte. 340 00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 3: They have been one of the worst FPS teams to 341 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 3: this point, in large part because their veterans certing quarterback 342 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 3: Chris Reynolds got hurt in Week one. Yeah, their backups 343 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 3: are not very good. The Texas they had this Texas 344 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 3: A and M transfer that had come in that they 345 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 3: had had as their top backup. I just don't think 346 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 3: that kid has it. And so then they tried this 347 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 3: other kid. I think Xavier Williams is his name, something 348 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 3: like that, but he is very clearly not what Reynolds is. 349 00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 3: It's several steps down. And so Charlotte's offense, which was 350 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 3: constructed around this quick hitting passing game where you have 351 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 3: three really good receivers. I mean, Charlotte has a really 352 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 3: really good receiving corps and a deep one, but without Reynolds, 353 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 3: that stuff doesn't work as well. And what they were 354 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 3: not as good at it was the running game. And 355 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 3: so it's really hurt on both ends of it because 356 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,199 Speaker 3: now this Williams guy can't hit the receivers like like 357 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 3: Reynolds does, and then you have to run the You 358 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 3: have to try to run the ball a little bit more, 359 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 3: both with quarterback scrambles and with the kids that you 360 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 3: have back and the defense is ready for it. So 361 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 3: it has not gone well for Charlotte early on. Maryland's 362 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 3: offense is they have the awesome receiving corps as well. 363 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 3: It's a really hard one to gauge just because of 364 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 3: the issues that Charlotte has had with the personnel and 365 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 3: offense that came from the quarterback injury. Probably another run 366 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 3: that I'm not going to bet, but it is interesting 367 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 3: to think about. 368 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: All right, Let's go over to the top five games 369 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: of the week. Last couple of game is kind of 370 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: hard to pick here, but the number one game I 371 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: think on everyone's mind and is for me, and it 372 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: has been for a couple of years at this point, 373 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,640 Speaker 1: is number one Alabama on the road against. 374 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 2: My Texas Longhorns. 375 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 1: This one opened up at minus seventeen and has grown 376 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: to minus twenty for Bama. It's also another one of 377 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: the games I just didn't mention it in the section 378 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: before because I knew we're going to talk about it here. 379 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: Overwhelming majority of the money is on Bama in this game. 380 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 1: The over on this one is going to be a 381 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: sixty four and a half you see it a little closer. 382 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: But I don't know, are you actually putting money on 383 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: my long horns here, thor what do you think? 384 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 3: I'll tell you this, Bodman, I have not yet. Certainly, 385 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 3: if the market pushes that game to twenty one or 386 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 3: certainly twenty one and a half. If they're gonna tell 387 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,760 Speaker 3: me like that, I'm putting my hand in that cookie 388 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 3: jar on a long horn. No, it's I mean, right 389 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,720 Speaker 3: now at twenty, it's not enough for me quite yet, 390 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 3: even though I am showing huge line value on Texas. 391 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 3: My line right now on that game it's Alabama minus 392 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 3: twelve and a half, So I'm showing seven and a 393 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 3: half points of line value theoretically on Texas. But I 394 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 3: also you know, we talked about this, like, I think 395 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 3: this Alabama team could be one of the best teams 396 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 3: of my lifetime, right and I've only seen this new 397 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 3: look Texas team against you all Monroe last week, where 398 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 3: they were palling the starters super duper early, and they 399 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 3: weren't giving that they weren't funneling the touches to guys 400 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 3: like Bijon specifically, that we're gonna see when they play 401 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 3: a team like Alabama, So we don't completely know what 402 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 3: to know from them yet, or quenen Ewers when he 403 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 3: plays a good defense. We just don't know. So right now, 404 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 3: with where the spread is certainly not laying those points 405 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 3: of Alabama, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna be laying 406 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 3: either way. I can't take the twenty with Texas yet, 407 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 3: But again, if the market wants my bet on Texas, 408 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 3: all you got to do is push that line to 409 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 3: twenty one or twenty one and a half certainly, and 410 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 3: I'm going to bet on Texas. 411 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 1: The second game that we have up here this week, 412 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: our number nine, Baylor at number twenty one BYU BYU 413 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: is a three and a half point home favorite. Fifty 414 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: three and a half is the line here. This looks 415 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: more like a stay away at least on the spread, 416 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 1: right I think so. 417 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 3: It's it's one of those where my numbers lean one 418 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,399 Speaker 3: way and I personally lean a different way, which is 419 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 3: usually when I end up like staying away unless I'm 420 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 3: super bolish on my opinion. But my number on that 421 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 3: game is BYU minus five is what my system's number is. 422 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 3: So it seemed to give two points a line value 423 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 3: to BYU on the spread. But the team that I'm 424 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 3: bullish on is Baylor. I'm super bullish on them. I 425 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 3: was bullish on them over the summer bet all they're 426 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,239 Speaker 3: overs and stuff like that. I thought they had a 427 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 3: criminally low win total that was put out was at 428 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 3: seven and a half or whatever. I think that this 429 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 3: team is an absolutely legitimate Big twelve contender, and you 430 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 3: know this can be an issue. You have a revenge 431 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 3: factor going for BYU. But on the other side of it, 432 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 3: they have major issues at receiver right now. Gunner Romney 433 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 3: did not play in the first game. Did not hear 434 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 3: a lot of information about that. It was just like 435 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 3: one of those where, you know, the time leading up 436 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 3: to kick off, you heard he wasn't going to be playing. 437 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 3: Then they so because of that, in part, they were 438 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 3: given all this usage early on to Pooka nikoua right 439 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 3: and you know, throwing on the ball. But like also 440 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 3: they were getting them involved with the jet sweep game 441 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 3: and all this sort of stuff. His first two jet 442 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 3: sweeps against USF in the first quarter both went for touchdowns. 443 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 3: The first one he had this long touchdown run. Second 444 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 3: one is like seven eight nine yards like something like that. 445 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 3: They tried it a third time in the first quarter 446 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 3: and USF was ready for at that time. It was 447 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 3: like that old George Bush quote where it's like, you know, 448 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 3: fool me once, can't get pulled again or whatever exactly, 449 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 3: and USF just swarms in. Nikua Nkula gets injured, you know, 450 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 3: they bring him off. He's in the medical ten. He 451 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 3: was done for the day. If Nikua can't play and 452 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 3: Gunner Romney can't play, and you're going up against this 453 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 3: nasty Baylor defense. David Randa always has nasty defenses. They 454 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 3: did lose you know, Petrie and Terrell Bernard over the season. 455 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 3: But like, for instance, you have a first round guy 456 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 3: playing noseguard, you know that, like an LSU transfer that 457 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 3: to come over, who's just an absolute war daddy. Then 458 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 3: you know a bunch of guys back, you know, beyond 459 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 3: that whatnot. But if you don't have the receiving play 460 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 3: at BYU, it's all gonna come down to Christopher Brooks 461 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 3: the running back, and then Jared Hall just sort of 462 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,919 Speaker 3: scrambling around unless they can find a receiver or whatever, 463 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 3: or you're forcing targets at Isaac t Rex. You know, 464 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 3: I mean, one way or the other, I do lean 465 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 3: Baylor on this game. And I do think that you 466 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 3: can toggle my number back a little bit if if 467 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 3: if those if the BYU receivers do end up missing 468 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 3: that game, I think you could you could sort of 469 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 3: manually adjust this thing back to b YU minus three 470 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,840 Speaker 3: might explain some of the discrepancy. I'm absolutely not betting 471 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: on BYU because of how much I believe in Baylor. 472 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 3: I will think about betting Baylor for this one, though 473 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 3: for me, it's probably would not be a spread bet. 474 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 3: This is probably gonna be some on my wait until 475 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 3: Saturday morning, and if I'm still feeling the conviction I 476 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 3: do on Baylor, I'll just do the money line. I 477 00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 3: don't think the points are going to matter in this 478 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 3: on why not take the plus you know, one thirty 479 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 3: or plus one forty or whatever it is on Baylor 480 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 3: at that a little. 481 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: More juice by taking that money line. If it's going 482 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,359 Speaker 1: to be close anyway, you know, go ahead and take it. 483 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 1: I'm absolutely with you on that. On that play number 484 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: twenty Kentucky on the road in the Swamp against now 485 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 1: number twelve Florida. Florida is a four and a half 486 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 1: point favorite. Fifty two and a half is the over 487 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 1: on this game. You like Florida, but you know you 488 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,480 Speaker 1: you see this game as more of a coin flip, 489 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: right or I do? 490 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 3: Yeah? I you know, the my numbers do favor Florida, 491 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 3: but it's only by eight tenths of a point. You know, 492 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 3: Florida minus point eight points, So I do see the 493 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 3: line value being on the Kentucky side. I think you 494 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 3: can explain that discrepancy just by the end of what 495 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 3: happened in the Florida Utah game. I think if Florida 496 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 3: loses that game, I think that this line opens, it's 497 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,680 Speaker 3: something like Florida minus two and a half or minus three. 498 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 3: But because Richardson put on his his you know, Superman 499 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 3: Kate at the very end of that game, and then 500 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 3: like we were talking about, maybe the refs miss a 501 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 3: holding call on that interception or pass in appearance whatever. 502 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 3: Because of those the confluence of those couple of things, 503 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,239 Speaker 3: Florida gets these couple extra points a line value, and 504 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 3: you understand the respect. I mean Utah or was a 505 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,199 Speaker 3: team that was being hyped and then Florida comes in. 506 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 1: Number seven, came in at number seven, top ten team 507 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:22,959 Speaker 1: in the nation, and they lose on the road. That's 508 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: a tough game on the road. I did pick Utah 509 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 1: in my article. I wrote them up, and I was 510 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: seven and three this week, and that's one of the 511 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: three that I missed. Unfortunately, I got the hook on 512 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and I missed the under on the Nevada game 513 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: by a point and a half. So all my games 514 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: like by a hair from having a really really solid 515 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: week seven three is still good, but that was one 516 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: that bothered me. But yeah, I mean Richardson looks like 517 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 1: a Heisman contender right now, Like you said before, though, 518 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,119 Speaker 1: we're never going to see that spin around throw to 519 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: the end throw the end zone. 520 00:24:58,200 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 3: Was that a. 521 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 1: Conversion play that he had? Yeah, But I mean Kentucky 522 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 1: is another strong team. I see this as much closer 523 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: of a coin flip like you do. 524 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 3: I do too. Yeah, and Kentucky didn't get the same 525 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 3: I think this is a worth noting. They didn't get 526 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 3: the same stage to impress in the way that Florida 527 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 3: that they played sort of a middle tier packed our 528 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 3: MAC team maybe a little bit about middle tier, but 529 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 3: Miami of Ohio people weren't watching that game, but everybody, 530 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 3: everyone and their mother was watching Florida against Utah and 531 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 3: saw what Richardson did at the end and everything like that, 532 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 3: pulling out that game. So that's why you're seeing the 533 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 3: little bit of a difference between what I feel his 534 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 3: objective reality and then perception on that game. I do 535 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 3: think that has opened the window here of value for 536 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 3: Kentucky betters. 537 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 1: How about you know the last two were kind of 538 00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: hard to pick. I threw this one in here because 539 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 1: it's got number twelve Oklahoma State at home and a 540 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: half ten and a half point favorite, excuse me over 541 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: Arizona State. Fifty seven and a half is the over 542 00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 1: under in this game. But you see it amount of 543 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 1: value on the Arizona State side. 544 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna get to find out personally if well, 545 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 3: let me put it this way. Over over the summer, 546 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 3: Arizona State was one of those teams that I was 547 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 3: like bullish on against what their win total was. So 548 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,880 Speaker 3: I knew that I was significantly higher on Arizona State 549 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 3: than the MARKT was Arizona State. Of course, they had 550 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 3: lost a whole bunch of guys in the transfer portal, 551 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,520 Speaker 3: and initially, just like everybody else, I just expected, you know, 552 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 3: whether Herma was going to get fired or HERM wouldn't 553 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 3: be able to replace all the guys that were leaving, 554 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 3: different stuff like that. But Herm ends up hanging on, 555 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 3: and then he got guys that I felt like were 556 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,120 Speaker 3: pretty solid signings in the transfer portal, like Emery Jones. 557 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:39,760 Speaker 3: That's a pretty solid. 558 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: One over Jane Daniels, be honest. I was Actually Daniels 559 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: did not look good golf against Florida State. 560 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 3: If I was Kha, but you know, you know they 561 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 3: fired Lane Lane kiffing on the tarmac. If I was Boute, 562 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 3: I would have transferred on the tarmac after that game. 563 00:26:57,119 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 2: Now he unfollowed everything. 564 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 1: I guess he didn't put in for a transfer yet, 565 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: but he was very mad, so as he should have been. 566 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 2: Daniels talked too much. 567 00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: That was ridiculous. 568 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 3: He sure did. Yeah, And with Daniels, it's like he 569 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 3: has to see the guy open and then his mind 570 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 3: has to be like Jayden, he's open, throw the ball 571 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 3: and then beat and then finally he starts throwing it. 572 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 3: By that point the defenders there. So it's like he 573 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 3: also has accuracy issues beyond that. But it's like this 574 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 3: thing that's exacerbating and I bote. I think it's justifiably. 575 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:32,919 Speaker 3: I mean, a part of that was on you know, 576 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 3: like I was making fun of Daniels and Brian Kelly 577 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,159 Speaker 3: on Twitter arms on Sunday night or whatever, but like 578 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 3: you know, some LSU fans were coming back of like 579 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 3: you know, this is on Bhuta too. He's not putting 580 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 3: out good effort, he has bad body language. 581 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: Well, you gotta find a different way to get him 582 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: the ball. Run some reversus short routes, put him in 583 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 1: the backfield, whatever. Just yeah, yeah, I mean, just generate touches. 584 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: It's not hard for your best player. They do in 585 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: the NFL. That's why Deebo was running the ball. They 586 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: you know, Jimmy g is not a good quarterback, so 587 00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 1: they manufacture touches for the best players. It's what you 588 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: have to do. 589 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 3: The other thing is, it's like, guys, you really can't 590 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 3: understand why Boota is frustrated. Really, he turned down millions 591 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 3: and millions, He turned down generational wealth from the NFL. 592 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 3: First off, right, second off. Alabama was coming at him 593 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 3: right when Alabama figured out that he wasn't going to 594 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 3: the NFL. Alabama wanted him bad, and all the rumors were, 595 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 3: you know, in reports coming out was Boote was going 596 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 3: to go to Alabama. All of a sudden, it just 597 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,120 Speaker 3: switched in one day and it's like, no, now he's 598 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 3: going back. And then you saw Alabama turn around. They're like, oh, 599 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 3: we can't pluck the wide receiver one off Lsu. Well, 600 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 3: we'll just pluck the wide receiver one off of Georgia 601 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 3: and said, and so the sign and signing Burton. But 602 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:50,200 Speaker 3: like like bootsa, he must have been sold something in 603 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 3: order to come back. If you're gonna leave that on 604 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 3: the table, you're gonna leave twenty million dollars, twenty five 605 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 3: million dollars on the table, not going to the NFL, 606 00:28:57,000 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 3: and you're gonna leave being on one of what could 607 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 3: be one of the best offensive we see. 608 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: Well, after you watch how he coached, you got to 609 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: know Brian Kelly's got a silver tongue. So Brian's not 610 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: a silver playbook, but a silver tongue, that's for sure. 611 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, whatever the opposite of a silver tongue is, I 612 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 3: think Brian Kelly has. I don't know how Brian Kelly 613 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 3: convinced Bote to come there, but I wouldn't put it 614 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 3: beyond Brian Kelly to be selling him things that were 615 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 3: not true. And you could you could understand maybe why 616 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 3: Boots would be a little bit frustrated in week one. 617 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, let's let's get back because we we completely 618 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: got off the rails there Arizona State at Oklahoma State. 619 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 1: You see value on the a SU side, you know, 620 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,520 Speaker 1: We've talked about Emory Jones, this Elson rabbit hole. So 621 00:29:39,080 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: why why is it that you like a su uh 622 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: in this matchup? It's a road matchup. There's been a 623 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 1: lot of turmoil around a SU. I think that why 624 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: a big part of public perception and why this number 625 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: is so big and you like a su in this game. 626 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 3: Before we move on, I do have to do my family. Okay, sorry, 627 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 3: So for for Arizona, say, you know, like like I 628 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 3: was said, now, I'm higher on them than the market is, 629 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 3: and I'm certainly lower on Oklahoma State than the market is. 630 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 3: I don't think the market took quite enough into account 631 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 3: that Oklahoma State last year, last couple of years, but 632 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 3: specifically last year was a team that was led not 633 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 3: by the foot of their offense, which is what you typically, 634 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 3: you know, going historically you associated with Mike Gunny teams. 635 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 3: Last year, it was the defense. The defense was friggin' awesome. 636 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 3: You had Malcolm Rodriguez and all those different guys, and 637 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 3: they finished as a top ten defense. Jim Knowles, of course, 638 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 3: the architect of that defense. He walked to Ohio State 639 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 3: and Oklahoma State lost something like seven defenders off of 640 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 3: that defense. So I knew that what their best thing 641 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 3: was it had been cratered out this offseason. What they 642 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,719 Speaker 3: returned it was the offensive guys. But I've never been 643 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 3: a Spencer Sanders guy that well, he was playing Central 644 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 3: Michigan too. I mean, you know, definitely chips up, but like, yeah, 645 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 3: we're gonna have to see it against a legitimate defense. 646 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 3: So I mean you have that going on on that 647 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 3: side where you know, like, I do not think that 648 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 3: Oklahoma State is going to be better than they were 649 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 3: last year. I think objectively they have taken this step back, sure, 650 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 3: Whereas I think the market expected or what they think 651 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 3: is that Arizona State dropped several several notches, whereas I 652 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 3: only think they dropped maybe like one notch or one 653 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 3: and a half notches like something like that. 654 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 2: You know what I mean, it is very understandable. 655 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, let me ask you this, Spencer Sanders or Spencer Rattler, 656 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: Which Spencer is the better? 657 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 2: Spencer? 658 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 3: Oh, Spencer Ratler for sure. 659 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: Really, I mean, I'm a Texas fan, so I can't 660 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:35,000 Speaker 1: like Spencer Ratler. But you know, anyway, the last of 661 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: the top five games to your number four Tennessee a 662 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 1: six and a half point road favorite against number seventeen. 663 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: Pitt the over sixty six, a lot of scoring here. 664 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 1: You actually kind of like Pitt in this game? Correct, 665 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: So Pitt was very unimpressive last week. I'm very mad 666 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: at them right now. I'll at a decent chunk of 667 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: change because of that hook. I was texting back and 668 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,760 Speaker 1: forth with you. You knew I was mad. Now, look, 669 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: you know, you move forward another week, but the opponent 670 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: gets tougher here. I think Tennessee is a good team. 671 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: So I am legit surprised that you're on the pit 672 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: side after watching him last week. 673 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 2: You know, the defense is supposed to be good. 674 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: Maybe they're gonna get better after a sloppy Week one 675 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 1: and really bow up against Tennessee. So I think because 676 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: you like Pitt, I'm gonna avoid this game out of 677 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 1: respect for you thor, but I like Tennessee here, I 678 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: have to say it. I'm I think I think the 679 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: volunteers walk away with this one. 680 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 2: So why do we like Pitt? 681 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm definitely on Pitt. You know the last week, 682 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 3: you know, we talked about this on the show that 683 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 3: we just did for Discord, But Pitt was rolling on 684 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 3: offense when Rodney Hammon was rolling on offense, and you 685 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 3: know he was he sort of jumped out where we 686 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 3: thought Israel Lebana Konda was going to be the lead 687 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 3: of that committee. Israel Vanakonda was not good in that game, 688 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 3: like he was just getting stoned at the line. He 689 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 3: looked a little bit sluggish. Hammond was good at both 690 00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 3: as a runner and as a receiver. He gets knocked 691 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 3: out of that game by an illegal targeting shot to 692 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 3: his helmet and he ended up hurting his leg or 693 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 3: his knee or whatever. And then when he went out 694 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 3: the offense, their offense wasn't doing quite as good. They 695 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 3: still be pit by by seven points, but Hammon had 696 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 3: fifty five yards receiving, seventy four rushing, and then a 697 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 3: couple of touchdowns as well. You know, we talked about 698 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 3: Pitt a lot last week, you know about how the 699 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 3: offense was going to be down a little bit and 700 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 3: the passing offense was going to be down bit. Rushing 701 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 3: offense is going to come up a little bit, but 702 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 3: their offense was going to be down overall a little bit, 703 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 3: and then the defense probably was going to get better. 704 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 3: That was the part of it that we didn't see 705 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 3: as much like Daniel or you know, the West Virginia 706 00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 3: offense played a little bit better, but what it was, 707 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,719 Speaker 3: you had these explosive plays that West Virginia was getting, 708 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 3: and I don't know if that was just because of 709 00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 3: the heat that the Pitt was was doing up front. 710 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 3: Pitt was a team that finished number two in the 711 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:57,160 Speaker 3: nation last year in sacks per game. But like that Donaldson, 712 00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 3: I don't even know where this kid Donaldson came from, 713 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 3: like that West Virginia had. He's a kid who in 714 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 3: college fantasy football, he has dual eligibility of both running 715 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,120 Speaker 3: back and tight end. But anyhow, he was getting all 716 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 3: these explosive long runs and stuff. Pitt just has to 717 00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 3: stop giving up those explosive plays and they should be fine. 718 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 3: Tennessee looked pretty good against ball State in Week one, 719 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 3: but we didn't get any more information about them. But 720 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 3: I just think that the market seems to be way 721 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 3: too high on Tennessee and just like I was saying 722 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,320 Speaker 3: last week, they seem to be a bit lower on Pitt, 723 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,240 Speaker 3: and they haven't risen any on that. Even though Pitt 724 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 3: did end up beating West Virginia by seven points, I 725 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 3: think just because they didn't they didn't cover, but my 726 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 3: justid line in this game, it's closer to pick them. 727 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:42,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's definitely. I think I'll void, like I said, 728 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,879 Speaker 1: because you like pitt I do think in my heart 729 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 1: of hearts, the Tennessee comes away with the dub here. 730 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: So we'll come back next week. I'll let y' all 731 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: know how that game went. Of course, you can think 732 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: about us while you're watching that one. Let's go to 733 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: your pick store because looking at your sheet, there are 734 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 1: a couple of games where you know you like one 735 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 1: team more than the other based on the spread. You're 736 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: just the ones that I have written down on the 737 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 1: sheet right here, Ohio. At Penn State, Penn State is 738 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 1: a twenty four and a half point favorite. You like 739 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 1: Penn State by a couple more points than that. Is 740 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 1: that one you're sticking to? 741 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a you know, we talk about like these 742 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 3: big favorites, and I usually do not lay the points 743 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 3: when it gets up over at twenty five or so. 744 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 3: This is one where I'm for sure considering it. My 745 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 3: adjusted line in that game is Penn State minus thirty 746 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 3: one point two. The live line is Penn State minus 747 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 3: twenty four and a half. So I'm showing almost a 748 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 3: touchdown of value on the favorite, on the big favorite, 749 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 3: which my system usually doesn't do. So that's what's pointing 750 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 3: me at at Penn State. I think a part of 751 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 3: the reason that Ohio is getting the respect that they 752 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 3: are in the market right now is last week they 753 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:56,000 Speaker 3: go out and they beat FAU, a team that the 754 00:35:56,040 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 3: previous week had slapped around, an FBS team that the 755 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 3: team that FAU had slapped around was Charlotte, who we 756 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 3: talked about previously after Charlotte's starting quarterback got hurt, and 757 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,439 Speaker 3: then last week Ohio sneaks by him by a field goal. 758 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 3: But I feel like the law of not reciprossey love, 759 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 3: like you know, you go from A to B t C. 760 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 3: I feel like Ohio because of that, is getting too 761 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,439 Speaker 3: much respect and doesn't seem like the market loves Penn 762 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 3: State right now. But this profiles as a game where 763 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 3: they should be able to run over the Bobcats. 764 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: What about we've got Maryland minus twenty seven at Charlotte. 765 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:38,799 Speaker 1: You see some value on the Charlotte side a little bit. 766 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 3: It looks like, yeah, my Justine, so this game is 767 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:44,399 Speaker 3: in Charlotte. So it's this wonkey game where Maryland has 768 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,440 Speaker 3: to travel to the G five team, like you mentioned, 769 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:50,320 Speaker 3: twenty seven points. My line in this game is Maryland 770 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 3: minus twenty two point two. But I will say, going 771 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 3: back to that Chris Reynolds injury that I just alluded to, 772 00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 3: Chris Reynolds gets hurt early on in that game against 773 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 3: Fae in week zero. The offense stunk after he went out. 774 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,239 Speaker 3: That's part of the reason why fau boat rased him, 775 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,320 Speaker 3: and then last week he was out again. Of course 776 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 3: you missed that game, and Charlotte loses at home to 777 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 3: William and Mary by double did It's not a good 778 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 3: luck losing at home though, to William and Married by 779 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 3: double diad is. You know, if Reynolds misses this game 780 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 3: as well, I think that might wipe out some of 781 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 3: that value that that I'm showing on this line. But 782 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 3: if they got good, good information about him, you know, 783 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 3: if you happen to be active, that would change it. 784 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 3: So I probably won't bet on Charlotte unless unless I 785 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 3: hear something good about Reynolds. Otherwise I'm probably going to 786 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 3: stay away. 787 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: UVA on the road at Illinois. Illinois is a four 788 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 1: point favorite, but thor you like the Cavaliers in this 789 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 1: game a little bit. 790 00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:46,479 Speaker 2: Now. 791 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 1: Look, I love, you know, rooting for our Kirkland Wisconsin 792 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,840 Speaker 1: in Illinois here. I still love that line, such a 793 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:58,280 Speaker 1: good line. But and I look, they beat the spread 794 00:37:58,320 --> 00:37:59,840 Speaker 1: and hit the under. I had both those in my 795 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:01,840 Speaker 1: last week, so I was very happy with them. But 796 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 1: you know, I'm probably a stay away in this game 797 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 1: because I do think this is way more evenly matched. 798 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 1: I like Brendan Armstrong for UVA. How do you see 799 00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:12,640 Speaker 1: this one playing on? Is this a UVA dub here? 800 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 3: Yeah? I think so. Yeah. The books have been putting 801 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,200 Speaker 3: out a lot of weird lines on Illinois. It seems 802 00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 3: like they vascillate back back and forth whatever. And because 803 00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,399 Speaker 3: their lines have I mean, this is the third straight 804 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 3: week where their line has been like the game that 805 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 3: they're involved with have been significantly off. 806 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:30,280 Speaker 1: For mine. 807 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,359 Speaker 3: Last week it was we like them against Indiana because 808 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:36,919 Speaker 3: the books had opened it up at like Indiana minus four, 809 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 3: and by kickoff it had come down to three. But like, 810 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 3: I didn't really understand why, you know, you were favor 811 00:38:43,719 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 3: in Indiana by that much base on what you'd see now. 812 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 3: Indiana ended up pulling that out at the very end. 813 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 3: They shouldn't have, though Illinois played them up until that point, 814 00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,680 Speaker 3: and then and then you know, Illinois just got beelimu 815 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 3: or whatever. But but then it's weird because you come 816 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 3: off of that game, well, going back the previous week, 817 00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,319 Speaker 3: you blow out Wyoming in week zero, you looked really good. 818 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 3: But then the books seem not to be respecting like 819 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:10,160 Speaker 3: they should when you're going up against Indiana. But then 820 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 3: you know, now you come back off that where you 821 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 3: lose Indiana. Maybe you sure won, but you lost, and 822 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 3: the next week the books are now all of a 823 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 3: sudden giving you respect that I don't think is warranted 824 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 3: against Virginia. So I don't know what the books in 825 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 3: the market are doing with It's sort of discombobulated me. 826 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,479 Speaker 3: I'm getting dizzy trying to figure out what they're both doing. 827 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:30,800 Speaker 3: But what grounds me back to earth is my line. 828 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 3: My line in this game has moved to Virginia minus 829 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,560 Speaker 3: three point one. So when you're looking at the books, 830 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 3: have it at Illinois minus four and a half. I 831 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:42,080 Speaker 3: have the other team favored by a field goal er. 832 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 3: So I'm sure when seven point six of seven point 833 00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:48,919 Speaker 3: six points of line value on Virginia, Virginia is gonna 834 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 3: have a difficult time dealing with the downhill running that 835 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 3: Illinois does. Talked about how big their offensive line is, 836 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 3: they should be able to run. However, Illinois is going 837 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 3: to have just as much problems, probably more, defending Virginia's 838 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 3: passing attack. Virginia has four different receivers that I believe 839 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 3: will play in the NFL. Brendan Armstrong also is probably 840 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 3: gonna play in the NFL. If he doesn't, he's going 841 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 3: to be a USFL All Star. Is kind of what 842 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 3: his game is, you know. He's like this dual fair 843 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 3: lefty that that could throw a little bit but certainly 844 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 3: accuracy at least out to the intermediate sector. He can 845 00:40:20,239 --> 00:40:23,160 Speaker 3: push it downfield too, but with all those bodies across 846 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:24,680 Speaker 3: the field, I think that's going to be a real 847 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 3: issue for Illinois secondary and specifically in terms of defending it. 848 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:30,600 Speaker 3: I like Virginia to win this game. 849 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,080 Speaker 1: And just so everybody knows, that money line would be 850 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 1: plus one sixty five on UVA. So I'll take you 851 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:40,200 Speaker 1: nice juice there. 852 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 3: Pay I'm going to partlay that with the Pittsburgh one 853 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:45,959 Speaker 3: hobo plus seven hundred something like that. 854 00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 1: These last three are ugly gamestre so I'll just group 855 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 1: them all together. Games Michigan minus fifty one, you see 856 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: a little value on the Hawaii side because fifty one 857 00:40:56,640 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 1: is absurd. Iowa somehow is a three and a half 858 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 1: point favorite at home, but you like them even more 859 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 1: than that, even though they had a pathetic showing last week. 860 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: And Colorado State is uh a road that they're minus 861 00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,000 Speaker 1: seven and a half against Middle Tennessee. You like Middle 862 00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 1: Tennessee in that game. So any of those three games 863 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: stick out to you, those ugly, nasty games there that 864 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 1: no one wants to watch. 865 00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, the the market may end up putting a gun 866 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 3: in my head to bet on Hawaii again. 867 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:35,240 Speaker 2: I don't know that I've seen a line. 868 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:37,400 Speaker 1: I know, I know that there's been a line this 869 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:41,439 Speaker 1: big Alabama versus somebody, but I don't remember the last 870 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: time we had. 871 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't see lines this big very often. And 872 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 3: Michigan it's they don't have like to spread it out, 873 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:54,319 Speaker 3: chuck it downfield, aggressive type offense. But Hawaii is so 874 00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 3: friggin bad, you know, I think I mentioned before, but 875 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 3: they're bottom three in the FBS and my power rankings 876 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 3: right now, so it'll be hard for me to get there. 877 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 3: But if the market keeps pushing that lineup, you know, 878 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 3: it's whatever it was fifty two right now or whatever 879 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 3: it is. If that thing ends up getting into the 880 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 3: mid fifties, the market, they're going to force my hand. 881 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 3: I'm going to have to I'm certainly not going to 882 00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 3: lay that amount of points with Michigan, but I know 883 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 3: how bad Hawaii is, so it's going to be tough. 884 00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 3: But again, with that many, with that big of a 885 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,360 Speaker 3: head start, I might just have to do it and 886 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:27,280 Speaker 3: play like the Tortoise and the hair kind of a thing. Iowa. 887 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 3: Of the three games that you toss up, the Iowa 888 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 3: one is the one that I like. I think that 889 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 3: line is too low. And I understand why people don't 890 00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:38,280 Speaker 3: want to bet on the Hawkeys because their offense. 891 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 2: Looked objectively the field goal yeah. 892 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 3: Objectively awful. They became the first team since before two thousand. 893 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,080 Speaker 3: We actually I still have not seen someone dig up 894 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 3: the last time that this occurred in college football, but 895 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 3: a couple of different people looked at least through the 896 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 3: year two thousand and since then, there had not been 897 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 3: another team that had scored exactly seven points in the 898 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,080 Speaker 3: FBS without an offensive touchdown like no. 899 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 1: Highlights you know why thor no camera phones back then, 900 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 1: so no highlights of those games cult event if nobody 901 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 1: was you know, there's no Big ten network and nobody 902 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 1: was recording. 903 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:14,320 Speaker 2: Them, you know, may not have an archive. 904 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: I'm just someone was recording it, but probably probably fairly 905 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: grainy film there, so we'll see. 906 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, But like I think what's lost a little bit 907 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 3: is IOWA was So this could be the worst offense 908 00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 3: of the Farns era. I'm not going to argue with that, 909 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 3: but this might be the best combination of defense and 910 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,719 Speaker 3: special teams of the Farans era as well. Their defense 911 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,920 Speaker 3: might be top three in the nation, just absolutely nasty, 912 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 3: and their special teams is awesome too. Specifically the punter 913 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 3: who is an absolute piece, this kid named Tory Taylor 914 00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 3: from Australia. He will be punching in the NFL. He's 915 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 3: got a monster leg and he is really good at 916 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 3: the coffin corner and stuff. So like, yes, Iowa's offense 917 00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 3: is bad, but they play even more conservative because of 918 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,520 Speaker 3: how much they trust that the defense and the special teams. 919 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 3: And you say, you know, well, four, I mean, you 920 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 3: have a team that can't play in the offense. You 921 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 3: know that, sure that their defense is good, but like, 922 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:11,840 Speaker 3: how could you lay three and a half points against 923 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 3: Iowa State, you know, in this this rivalry game and 924 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:18,400 Speaker 3: a big twelve opponent whatever like Iowa without an offense, Like, 925 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 3: how could they cover that? Just look at last year. 926 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:25,239 Speaker 3: Last year, Iowa blew out Iowa State with like one 927 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:27,839 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty yards of total offense. They turned over 928 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:30,239 Speaker 3: Brock Purty I think three or four times. 929 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:31,320 Speaker 2: They had He's in the NFL. 930 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 3: Now he's in the NFL, and so is Breecee. Also 931 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 3: is Charlie Cohlar so is. 932 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:38,280 Speaker 2: Some of their offense pieces. 933 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:42,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is the other point of it. Iowa lost everybody. 934 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 3: They lost everybody. They lost all their studs on offense, 935 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 3: and I believe they lost eight starters on defense. They 936 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 3: returned only three. People are making fun of Iowa, But 937 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 3: Iowa played a top line FCS team, So I to 938 00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 3: go to state. It's one of the best, you know, 939 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 3: FCS teams, whereas Iowa. Who did Iowa State play right? 940 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,920 Speaker 3: Like and so just because of the the circumstances up 941 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 3: where Iowa, Iowa's offense became a punchline on Saturday. But 942 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,160 Speaker 3: people weren't paying attention to Iowa State. I feel like 943 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 3: that's why this thing is a little bit closer. But 944 00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 3: if you just start parsing it, you know, unit against unit, 945 00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,719 Speaker 3: Iowa State has almost nothing that you would look at 946 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,400 Speaker 3: and you'd be like, I trust that their offense has 947 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,640 Speaker 3: gone to a bunch of like these young guys that 948 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 3: we haven't seen before. They like a couple of them, 949 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:27,720 Speaker 3: like drell Brock had had a good game. In their opener, 950 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 3: Deckers looked. 951 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:34,319 Speaker 1: Out to East Missouri State missouris, so you know, there 952 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 1: you go. 953 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 3: But this will be the first time that those two kids, 954 00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 3: you know, have the bullets flying around them and gets 955 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 3: a really really good defense like this, So that that's 956 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,279 Speaker 3: gonna be tough. Plus you're playing in Kinnick in this 957 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,839 Speaker 3: enormous rivalry game, don't they're gonna be I always say 958 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,200 Speaker 3: it's gonna be getting a lot of hate. You know, 959 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,800 Speaker 3: there's gonna be a lot of negative energy going towards 960 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,399 Speaker 3: down there. And so you have all those different things 961 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 3: going on, And I also don't trust Iowa State's defense. 962 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 3: Now again, sure Iowa's offensive, I get it, but I 963 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 3: was starting running back was out in the last game. 964 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:06,839 Speaker 3: May have been withheld for precautionary reasons. If he's back 965 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 3: in this game, he's probably their second best offensive player 966 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,360 Speaker 3: behind Sam Laparda. You know, I'm like, you know, outside 967 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:17,719 Speaker 3: the offensive line. Whatever, you get him back, maybe then 968 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 3: you can at least play the clock control kind of 969 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 3: a thing which will allow him to do the field 970 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,720 Speaker 3: position thing better. My line in this game is Iowa 971 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 3: minus six and a half, which I think is fair 972 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 3: from a talent on talent perspective, and I do think 973 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:30,520 Speaker 3: that I was going to cover that number. 974 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 1: All right, Well, look that will wrap it up for 975 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 1: us this week. We appreciate Thor bringing the knowledge here. 976 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 1: Of course, you can follow him on the Twitter at 977 00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 1: thor ku Thor Once again. You know we talked about 978 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:44,880 Speaker 1: last week, but for people who are just jumping in 979 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 1: or watching us for the first time, kind of lay 980 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,279 Speaker 1: out your CFB schedule throughout the week so they know 981 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:50,960 Speaker 1: where they can find all your awesome content. 982 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 3: Yeah. So, first in the week on Betting Pros, we 983 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 3: put out my power rankings. You know where it's like 984 00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 3: one through one through one and thirty one and all 985 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,680 Speaker 3: their different things, and you can use that to make 986 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:06,400 Speaker 3: your own adjusted spreads at home by subtracting one from 987 00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:07,919 Speaker 3: the other, and then whatever you give the home field 988 00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 3: advantage to the home team, you know, three points or 989 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 3: whatever it ends up being. Then the next day we 990 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:15,759 Speaker 3: put out the week one or the you know, the 991 00:47:15,800 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 3: coming Week's Notes, where it's my adjusted lines on every 992 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 3: single game for the coming weekend, and then all the 993 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 3: injuries that are affecting spreads, different stuff like that in 994 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 3: the news that's affecting spreads, and then games that I'm 995 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 3: betting on early And I think that that's really important 996 00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 3: because by the time it gets a Thursday Friday, these 997 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 3: lines have been so sharpened on both sides by the 998 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 3: market that most of the lines are good. You don't 999 00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 3: see you see a bunch of mistake lines on Sunday, 1000 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 3: or you know, at least a small handful of them 1001 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 3: where they put it out and you're like, that line 1002 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:48,799 Speaker 3: is going to change real quick. You don't see those 1003 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 3: anymore on Thursday. That's when you have to have a 1004 00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 3: conviction on one side or the other, so so that 1005 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,680 Speaker 3: you know, we do that early. And that's also what 1006 00:47:54,719 --> 00:47:57,040 Speaker 3: we talk about on my show on Sundays with Thomas, 1007 00:47:57,200 --> 00:47:58,799 Speaker 3: where it's like, these are the games that you need 1008 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,680 Speaker 3: to bet early. Connecticut was an example this week where 1009 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 3: they open it twenty and a half. Immediately the next 1010 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 3: day it was Syracuse against you, where then the next 1011 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,600 Speaker 3: day Syracuse was minus twenty two and a half, so, 1012 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:13,640 Speaker 3: you know, different stuff like that. And then on Thursdays 1013 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 3: when I do my best bets of the week, those ones, 1014 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 3: I'm betting against the late week numbers. But that's when 1015 00:48:18,680 --> 00:48:20,200 Speaker 3: most of the market ends up doing. You know, you 1016 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,560 Speaker 3: mentioned like late week is when most of the bets 1017 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 3: come in. That's when most people are doing it. So 1018 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 3: then I'm going to be betting against the late week numbers. 1019 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 3: That one comes out on Thursday. Of course, I have 1020 00:48:29,200 --> 00:48:31,319 Speaker 3: a couple of shows with you you know that we 1021 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 3: do on Wednesdays, have the show with Thomas on Sundays 1022 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:36,880 Speaker 3: and then with Mike Ferrell, we do a Saturday kickoff 1023 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,560 Speaker 3: show that's from ten am Eastern. I'm trying to do 1024 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:42,520 Speaker 3: the Eastern in my head because I'm in several times I'll. 1025 00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,720 Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, same, yeah, ten. 1026 00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 3: Am Eastern to eleven thirty Eastern in the morning. So 1027 00:48:48,080 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 3: it's like we end thirty minutes before kickoff in the 1028 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,400 Speaker 3: mornings on Saturday, but we go for an hour and 1029 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 3: a half and we hit as many games on the 1030 00:48:55,440 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 3: card as we possibly can, given out side picks, total picks, props, dfs, 1031 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 3: all my adjusted lines, the whole gamut. 1032 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,719 Speaker 1: Awesome, great stuff from Thor.
