Speaker 1: our trash section. Fellas lots of basket all to discuss.

16
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: Let's jump right into it. Monday, pretty light slate, but

17
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: there is a humdinger of a game, a massive one

18
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: in Ames Houston travels to Iowa State. You have two

19
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 1: of the top teams in the country, two of the

20
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: top six defenses in the country. Matthew, the Clones are

21
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 1: off a massive win over Kansas in this arena. Fun fact,

22
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,279
Speaker 1: the last four meetings since Houston joined the Big Twelve,

23
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: it is in favor of Iowa State. Houston won last year.

24
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: Excuse me, it's actually tied two two Houston one last year,

25
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: Iowa State two and one the year before, including a

26
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: win in Ames and the Big Twelve Championship. Your thoughts

27
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: in this game, Kim pom pexus one at Iowa State

28
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: minus three. I will see if we actually have a

29
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: real line out too, as you.

30
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 3: Do minus two minus two and a half, which I

31
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 3: think is it proper? Yeah, I think that's appropriate. I

32
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 3: don't have a play on this game. I just to me,

33
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 3: it feels like Iowa State replicating the energy they brought

34
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 3: against KU. I'm sure they can't do it again. It

35
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 3: just feels like if it's a you know, yes, if

36
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 3: that was eleven out of ten held magic on Saturday,

37
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 3: I feel like it's probably been closer to eight to

38
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 3: nine against Houston, and the.

39
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: Way those guards are paintal pressure for most of the year.

40
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 2: It's Tony.

41
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 3: We don't seeing Houston really play like a really really

42
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,239
Speaker 3: good team in a while, because I'm not going to

43
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 3: qualify BYU as such, They've been kind of this weird

44
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 3: rut of a part of the Big twelve schedule, so

45
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 3: I kind of forgot about him since that Texas Tech game.

46
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 4: Every Big Twelve team's got a backloaded schedule, Matthew, it's weird.

47
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 2: I don't know why they did.

48
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 3: It, but Arizona on Saturday for Houston, Yeah, yep, and.

49
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,799
Speaker 4: Kay, this game is we said, this is a big game,

50
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 4: right and it's on Monday.

51
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: It's Monday.

52
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: It's good Monday.

53
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 2: Matt You hit the key matchup point for me.

54
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 4: And it's how incredible Houston's been taking care of the

55
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 4: ball this year. Number two in the country and turnover eight.

56
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 4: I know Kansas only ended up with thirteen turnovers, but

57
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 4: a lot of them were early, a lot of them

58
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,399
Speaker 4: were in that first half, and that's when they really

59
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,240
Speaker 4: got down, especially late. I think I was staying uder

60
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 4: the first half on a twenty one to seven run,

61
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 4: partially because Kansas gave them chances to run the other way,

62
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 4: and I do not believe Houston's going to do that.

63
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 4: Such a good style to travel on the road. We've

64
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 4: talked about how great Houston is on the road in

65
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 4: the Big Twelve since they joined it last year. They

66
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 4: did not lose a single road game this year, their

67
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,119
Speaker 4: only road loss at Texas Tech. I think they take

68
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 4: care of the ball. I kind of think Houston wins Kai.

69
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna bet it. I've got a.

70
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 4: Decent card for this week already, so I'm not gonna

71
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 4: force against Hilton Magic on Big Monday. That does seem

72
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 4: like asking for death, just the way that I challenged

73
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 4: the KU crowd last week with Arizona and had it

74
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 4: shoved right back in my face. So I'm not going

75
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 4: to do it. But I got a hankering. I got

76
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 4: a in my plums, as Matthew says, I can.

77
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,720
Speaker 1: Feel it all the way down on my plums, getting

78
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: all swollen with a light blue hue to them, fresh

79
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 1: and juicy, ready for the picking. Yeah. I just wrote

80
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: this game for action a single game guide. I ended

81
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: up landing on the under, which is actually shaded from

82
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: Kempon Kimpon in the real market one thirty four and

83
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: a half right now, those four games, four recent games,

84
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: one seven, one ten, one thirty eight and then one

85
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: ten and mostly in low sixties possessions and Houston percentity

86
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: is basically the best pick and roll defense in the country.

87
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: Iowa State uses that a lot on the flip side

88
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: of Iowa State among the best teams in the country,

89
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: gets stopping isolation and ball screens, and that's Houston's bag

90
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: right now. With their backcourt, the way they can play

91
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 1: Flemings is incredible, real pro So for this one thirty

92
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,600
Speaker 1: four and a half. Again, that's shaded low. I would

93
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: love one thirty seven. Of course, the Kempon number. It'll

94
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: be just a lean for me on the official show here.

95
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, three of the four.

96
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 4: You mentioned that the games they've ended, three of the

97
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 4: four meetings between them and the Big Twelve have gone

98
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 4: under just that one thirty eight one.

99
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, snuck over a mid one thirties total.

100
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 1: Well, let's go to the Big ten on Tuesday for

101
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: a couple massive matchups. Then we'll also thrown in an

102
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: ACC game. Michigan is at Purdue. Kim Palm has got

103
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 1: this one minus two at excuse minus student from Michigan

104
00:04:55,960 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: at Purdue Perdue Matthew shutting the haters up with a

105
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 1: twenty one point win over Iowa. Perhaps Michigan and the

106
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 1: course coming off a thirty point win which basically was

107
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: all second half once again, as UCLA played him close

108
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,080
Speaker 1: in the first half and then absolutely got destroyed, thoughts

109
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: in this game. A fun front court matchup to arguably

110
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 1: two of the best round courts in the country. I

111
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: kind of lean towards Michigan's front court though there Perhaps

112
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,919
Speaker 1: though Maki has something in store for the Wolverines, I

113
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: do too.

114
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 3: Again, this is where does the market end up. I

115
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 3: feel like it's going to be Purdue closer to pick.

116
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: Maybe not.

117
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 3: Maybe I think market might have Michigan favorite. It seems

118
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 3: the market was sort of souring on Purdue, and maybe

119
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 3: that game against Iowa is making kind of a correction

120
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 3: of sorts.

121
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: But I thought about that more.

122
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 3: I just think that was a good matchup for Purdue, right,

123
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 3: I was just not super athletic. They don't really pose

124
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 3: any thing that kind of makes Purdue that puts any

125
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 3: stress on Purdue. I just think Michigan is a tough

126
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 3: matchup for the boilership. We'll see if they can weaponize

127
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 3: Yaxle as that kind of key, you know, hybrid wing

128
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 3: four that's get to produce some problems we've seen this year.

129
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's kind of what I have circled. Yaxel is

130
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 4: a freaking menace in this matchup. There's nobody on Purdue

131
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 4: that can guard him, especially when Michigan comes out with

132
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 4: the three big lineup as they start Yaxel at the three,

133
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, is Fletcher Lawyer guarding him?

134
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,039
Speaker 2: CJ. Cox guarding him? They put one of those.

135
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 4: Guys on Morez Johnson, Like, I don't know how they

136
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 4: deal with that, Like they just don't have the wing

137
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 4: sized players to try to throw at them. I think

138
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,760
Speaker 4: Michigan can kind of eat on the offensive glass. Purdue

139
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 4: has really been much better defensively on the boards this

140
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 4: year than last year. Oscar Cloth has been a huge,

141
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 4: huge part in fixing that. But I do think Michigan

142
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 4: can get after them a little bit there. With their

143
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 4: size at the three through five spots, they can really

144
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 4: throw that out. And then yeah kay, you mentioned the

145
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 4: second half turbo against UCLA. Michigan's done it all year.

146
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 4: They just can smash you. It's so hard to stay

147
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 4: perfectly disciplined in transition defense and in your defensive rebounding

148
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 4: and all your positioning. You have to keep moving the

149
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 4: ball on offense to get quality shots against them. You're

150
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,880
Speaker 4: not really going to beat them one on one. I

151
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 4: think that wears teams down. I also lean Michigan here,

152
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 4: But just like the Iowa State Houston game, I don't

153
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 4: need to take a fight up with macki Arena and

154
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 4: the student section of the paint crew. So I definitely

155
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 4: lean towards the road team, Michigan getting it done with

156
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 4: Yaxelle having a giant game, but I won't officially bet it.

157
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: Yep, big lean for Michigan too. I think the matchup

158
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 1: is heavily in their favor. But Mackie's a special place.

159
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 3: As we know, we've what if what if I told

160
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 3: you Prdue was checking my facts here? Five against this

161
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 3: last five home games.

162
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: I believe that's five home games.

163
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, it lost two Big ten games or not

164
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 4: not two Big ten games.

165
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 2: But they've lost two games at home. They got smashed

166
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 2: by Iowa State. Illinois kind of handled them.

167
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: Might be zero to six after this one, Matthew Uh.

168
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 1: The other Big ten game we want to touch on here,

169
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 1: Nebraska at Iowa Nebraska minus one on the road for

170
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: Kim Pum Here. Husker has got back in the win column,

171
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: decimating Northwest after a couple losses there, Oscars finally took

172
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 1: it on the chin. Iowa. Jim is still twenty fifth

173
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: in Kimpom, but still not a lot of impressive wins.

174
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: No wins against kim Pom top thirty. They're two and

175
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 1: five against Q one Nebraska. Their defense has been elite

176
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: in league play. Certainly a lot of feisty guards and

177
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: length to bother their stirts, but perhaps a lack of

178
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 1: top notch athlete that maybe Iowa tends to struggle against more.

179
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts in this game?

180
00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, you mentioned Iowa twenty fifth ken Pom, but thirty

181
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,200
Speaker 4: seventh in WAB wins above bubble. They have not really

182
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 4: gotten the victories to go and make their profile commensurate

183
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 4: with their analytical resume. Yes, the lack of athletes I

184
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 4: think is big, But man, the Iowa role players are

185
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 4: just driving me nuts right now. Last three games they

186
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 4: have not made shots. I thought they would step up

187
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:50,839
Speaker 4: and be much better against Purdue, and poor Stirts hit

188
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 4: two of their six made threes.

189
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 2: The rest of the team at four of sixteen from deep.

190
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 4: You can't do that against Nebraska because they're going to

191
00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 4: give you a ton of threes. Perdue just took their

192
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 4: program high most threes in a single game. They took

193
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 4: forty six threes against Nebraska. That's what their defense concedes.

194
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 4: I don't know if I trust their role players to

195
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 4: make a Matthew Kyle Coombs, no thanks. Koch has been

196
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 4: a bit of a in a bit.

197
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 2: Of a rut.

198
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 4: Banks made a couple threes in the first Purdue game,

199
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 4: but I think he's kind of a fake shooter and

200
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 4: they're not really playing Brendan Hausen. He played nine minutes

201
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 4: against Perdue, but yeah, it was kind of like game

202
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 4: game was really over.

203
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 2: So I'm I'm a little worried here. Matthew.

204
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 4: I want Iowa to start building a resume, but I

205
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 4: think Nebraska might might be able to give to him.

206
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 4: And as Kai mentioned, Sam Hoiberg on the ball is

207
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 4: a menace. The little is going to be in starts

208
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 4: his shorts all night.

209
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:43,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I still think of Iowa against this tone.

210
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 3: I think in this next two game stretch they go

211
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,720
Speaker 3: to Wisconsin game kem Palm has only three.

212
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 1: It's pretty crazy. I think Iowa goes.

213
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 3: One to one, and I can't decide if they win

214
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 3: this one or they win that game at Wisconsin. But

215
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 3: I'm with you, Jim, just like they really haven't impressed

216
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,959
Speaker 3: me in any one game this year. Iowa like there

217
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: into a bubble I think is apt. It's certainly lower

218
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 3: than the Ken Palm ranking. It kind of matches the

219
00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,160
Speaker 3: eye test. But again, there's another matchup where the Nebraska

220
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 3: is not crazy athletic, right, So while that sort of

221
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 3: worked against them against Purdue, I think they come out

222
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 3: and play better their role players at home. I think

223
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 3: will sort of answer the bell after, you know, hearing

224
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 3: the chirps from the public galleries of how poorly they

225
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 3: played against the Boilers.

226
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, slightly for me to Iowa, but I have nothing

227
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 1: strong in this matchup, okay, acc to finish us off

228
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,520
Speaker 1: for the big games, for the power games, that is

229
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: n C State minus three for kimpom at home, you u.

230
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: Nc Ham will pit without Kid Wilson also were without

231
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:41,160
Speaker 1: Vsar in that game, so basically they're starting front court.

232
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,960
Speaker 1: NC State though a bit of a different beast than Pitt.

233
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,319
Speaker 1: I would say. They're off two straight losses themselves, a

234
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: blowout loss of Louisville, a surprising loss in my opinion

235
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: at home to Miami. This is a big game for

236
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: their tournament resume, Jim. Hard to see in my opinion,

237
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 1: North Carolina getting consistent stops the NC State three point barage,

238
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: come on high and heavy you and c perhaps continues

239
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: that crazy opponent. Three point shooting teams are shooting forty

240
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 1: percent from three against them. That is crazy. And without

241
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,559
Speaker 1: kill Wilson, I just don't know how they score consistently.

242
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, fully expect they saar back. It was like illness

243
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 4: and a lower body injury. And I think they're like,

244
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 4: it's pit. We're not gonna We're not going to push

245
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 4: it against Pitt. But there is the dilemma here where

246
00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 4: the Raleigh grounds crew or arena crew has to clean

247
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,199
Speaker 4: up the vomit that NC State did all over themselves

248
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 4: in the final minute against Miami.

249
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 2: No run, a total mess.

250
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 4: Darian Williams falls out by following a three point shooter

251
00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 4: with three seconds left. Preseason ACC Player of the Year

252
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 4: loses you the game by doing that.

253
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 2: That was that was a mess.

254
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 4: That said, I'm betting NC stayed up to minus five,

255
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 4: and maybe it won't be available.

256
00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 2: Because kill Wilson is worth a lot against good teams.

257
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 4: I think Evan Miakawa tweeted he was worth like four

258
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 4: points to a spread based on his Byouzian performance rating.

259
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 2: Power ratings for players, So perhaps I won't see five.

260
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 4: But if it's or less, I will be betting the

261
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,199
Speaker 4: Wolf Pac Matthew de bounce back. And I just don't

262
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 4: love the UNC version without Wilson in there to kind

263
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 4: of be the game breaker type athlete and keep them

264
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,559
Speaker 4: gigantic in the front court.

265
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 3: I'm with you, Jim. I'm gonna probably lay this here.

266
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 3: The question is I think it could go higher than five.

267
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 3: I just think people are so eager to back this spot,

268
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 3: and with all the off season stuff, will Wade coming in,

269
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 3: you know, kind of putting, the putting, the arch rival

270
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 3: and the crosshairs. You have the Van Allen Lubin thing,

271
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,079
Speaker 3: and I got to think, man, there's no way they're

272
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 3: not coming out like with their hair on fire.

273
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: But God, they just got.

274
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 3: A railroaded by Louis though they got and they lost

275
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 3: to the Canes.

276
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 1: To file that up.

277
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 3: But I'm with you, I'm gonna draw the line at five.

278
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 3: I think if I were more confident in what I

279
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 3: saw in Darien Williams, who again has he heard is

280
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,240
Speaker 3: he just sort of kind of in this mental rup

281
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 3: but they just they lose that ceiling if he's not

282
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 3: playing at that level, and he certainly has not the

283
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 3: last couple of games.

284
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he stayed for me taking it, adding it

285
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: to the car. Here we go. Hooray. There's just lame

286
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:01,959
Speaker 1: where it's gonna be.

287
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 2: Has to play big minutes for Zayden High who is Yeah,

288
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 2: it's pitt.

289
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 4: I'm not giving anybody any credit for a pit performance.

290
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 4: I'm just out on him. But yeah, if it's if

291
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 4: it's above minus five, I'll probably have to sit.

292
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: All right, fellas, let's go mid major games. Nothing really

293
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 1: on Monday that I want to speak about, although we

294
00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: do touch on a couple of mid major games later

295
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: on the show on Mondays Tuesday. Then we had to

296
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: I have a three pack for you. GW going to

297
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: VCU the Rams favored by seven per Ken Pom Matthew.

298
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: GW has one two straight, but Castro is still out.

299
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: He's missed the last five games. They killed George Mason

300
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: without him. Perhaps that was part of the rivalry. Though

301
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 1: VCU ninth straight wins actually has a decent chance. I mean,

302
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 1: a fighter's chance to make the tournament still isn't that large.

303
00:13:54,840 --> 00:14:00,239
Speaker 1: It's possible, and I just if Casher's out again. GA's

304
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,079
Speaker 1: greatest strength was the glass VC's gone on the glass anyways,

305
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,319
Speaker 1: and they're just worse than the glass that Castro, so

306
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,079
Speaker 1: I would lean towards VC pretty hard here at seven.

307
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: We're not gonna get seven. If Castro is out, I.

308
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 3: Kind of lean g DUB if it gets like seven

309
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 3: or eight. I just don't think this VCU team. I

310
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,240
Speaker 3: think they're still inconsistent, and she'd have sort of been

311
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 3: that team that's played really well in big spots like

312
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 3: this SLEW game comes to min. I know Castro was

313
00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:27,080
Speaker 3: in there, and I don't know if VC was totally

314
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:31,160
Speaker 3: built to punish the REVS at the rim, but I

315
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 3: have nothing official on that one.

316
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: Jim Kai.

317
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 3: Like your San Diego State Grand Canyon Circle. We'll get

318
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 3: to that in a sec though, along as some other

319
00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 3: OBC action good OBC bouts.

320
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Caster things worth tracking. I think he like

321
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 2: warmed up a bunch.

322
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 4: She was dressed on Saturday, and I think they like

323
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 4: rote adult him, so he might be back in there,

324
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 4: and that would definitely tilt it a little more towards

325
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 4: gw VC. You coming off the rivalry game where they

326
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 4: got up twenty, let it get all the way back

327
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 4: to like two and then ended up extending to double

328
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 4: digits against Richmond. Nothing for me on that one either,

329
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 4: k but VC, like you said, still hunting attorney.

330
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,600
Speaker 1: Bit Yeah, crazy, Okay, Mountain West. Then Matthew hints it

331
00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: at it. San Diego State hosting Grand Canyon, a rematch

332
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 1: of the insane Game one, where San Diego State basically

333
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: got screwed out of a win late with a foul

334
00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 1: that probably was not a foul. Grand Canyon wins by one.

335
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: It's all of the defense for the Aztecs this year,

336
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 1: Top fifteen in the country, number one in the Mountain West,

337
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,440
Speaker 1: and Jim Game one. Grand Canny was nine for twenty

338
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: nine from two. They won because they were ten or

339
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 1: twenty one from three and twenty two for twenty eight

340
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,680
Speaker 1: from the free throw line. But San Diego State also

341
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 1: had a plus seven turnover margin. Basically every indicator said, Hey,

342
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: the Astacs, you probably should have won that game. So

343
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: Kim Palm's got it eight. That's a big spread for me.

344
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 1: But I think they're going to have the lobes in

345
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 1: Hell on their defensive end. I like the Aztecs.

346
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I lean that way too.

347
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 4: You mentioned all the boxcoradges sixty two to fifty in

348
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 4: shot volume that the typically is going to get you

349
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 4: to a good place. Magoogwath did not play for San

350
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 4: Diego State in that game, they still had that defensive dominance.

351
00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 4: He returned over the weekend, so they're closer to full

352
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 4: strength now. Elz Harrington was arguably the best player on

353
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 4: the floor in the first meeting, and he has been

354
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 4: out for San Diego State. So you've got some personnel

355
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 4: ins and outs there. I don't know if I'm willing

356
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 4: to lay it, but gosh, like the the first meeting,

357
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 4: under underlying stuff, the revenge angle, the anger, and just.

358
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,000
Speaker 2: The trend of San Diego State's defense.

359
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 4: I mean they are suffocating people, Like everybody's below one

360
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 4: point per possession. Even there lost to Utah State, they

361
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 4: held Utah State below one point per possession. If they

362
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 4: can score enough, then they'll extend Matthew because I don't

363
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 4: think Grand Canyon has really much of a prayer to

364
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 4: score efficiently.

365
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like the under here Gone made three threes

366
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 3: in his return. I don't think he's just gonna he's

367
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 3: nine to ten from three in Mountain West Place.

368
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 2: It's pretty in South Florida, Sorry boys, South Florida. Big

369
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 2: win on the road.

370
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 4: Wow, good job at the those We're recording this during

371
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 4: Sunday afternoon for those listening.

372
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: Yes, man, you don't think Goethe is a ninety percent

373
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: three point shooter. I don't think that's sustainable.

374
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,120
Speaker 3: I also think that making three is going to just

375
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 3: inject his veins with too much confidence, will be taking

376
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 3: some dumb ones.

377
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:06,600
Speaker 1: But he has a difference maker defense player.

378
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 3: He like he has five or six blocks in the

379
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:11,639
Speaker 3: fourteen minutes he played off of you know, not playing

380
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 3: for three weeks in Grand Canyon. I just don't really

381
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 3: trust their offense. Their backcourt shaky less, Gene Henley's making

382
00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 3: tough shots. They got to really get stuff at the rim.

383
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,640
Speaker 3: And yeah, I mean they hadn't have added to forty

384
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 3: six points with three minutes to go, and Ma just

385
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 3: scored like eleven bar garage points last for minutes of

386
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 3: that game.

387
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 1: I love the underhere, kay.

388
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,440
Speaker 3: I don't know if totals in the portfolio of best bets,

389
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 3: but as an aside, just pin that one, folks.

390
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 2: For uh a couple of total. I feel it, Yeah,

391
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 2: go for it.

392
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 1: I'm really off with the total today. Macgoong guat that game,

393
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: four fourteen minutes, thirteen points, five blocks, three rebounds and assist.

394
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: He won MVP of the game for Kim Pump. Yeah, okay,

395
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's crazy. Last game Matt Hintson at

396
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: this one as well. OVC action. Yeah, Simo UT Martin

397
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: a win Forsimo gives them the UT Martin sweep and

398
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 1: ties in the top leaderboard with Cimo for the OBC

399
00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 1: lead tiebreaker of course has them in front. Uh Radikovic

400
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 1: missed game one for you, T Martin. In this game.

401
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: In this matchup, Simo led the whole way and they

402
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,440
Speaker 1: actually led by thirty one points in that game. It

403
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: was a pretty big dominant performance. I kind of like

404
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 1: Cimo against the number again, Matthew, I think they stand

405
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 1: up well against the Skyhawk's glass attack, which is their

406
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,199
Speaker 1: biggest strength. They're a very balanced team on offense, multiple weapons.

407
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 1: Never know who's gonna beat you.

408
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 2: I agree.

409
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: I also think by the way, yeah I don't like

410
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 1: link plus. Yeah, I'm with you. I like Cimo.

411
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 3: I think the unpredictability of Martin, especially going through the

412
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,080
Speaker 3: league the first time was you know, gave them a

413
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,120
Speaker 3: pretty big edge, and I think the second time three

414
00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 3: you're gonna see a little bit of not like you're

415
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 3: not gonna crash, But I just think more teams will

416
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 3: understand all the tricky stuff they're on. They're just a

417
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 3: very unorthodox team to scout and prepare for. Korn's good coach.

418
00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 3: I think they kind of replicate that first game, So

419
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 3: I I'm with you.

420
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,520
Speaker 1: I like seem here quite a bit. Wow.

421
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, the big sweep in the OVC, Yeah,

422
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 4: I don't. Coming in the year would not have anticipated

423
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 4: Tennessee Martin running away with the league. And this would

424
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 4: make the standings look like what I think they should

425
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 4: look like in the OVC, with a bunch of teams

426
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 4: tied for first, four different teams five in the lost column.

427
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 2: That feels right for me.

428
00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:20,239
Speaker 1: Kay.

429
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,439
Speaker 4: It's not a profound matchup angle, but I would kind

430
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,600
Speaker 4: of lean Southeast Missouri as well. Can I bring up

431
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,520
Speaker 4: one other mid major game Miam Ohio on the road

432
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 4: undefeated team at U mess Is it in another section?

433
00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 2: Am I stepping on?

434
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: It's not? No, no, no, I consider putting it there,

435
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: but okay, close game, first matchup between the two teams.

436
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, you mass like very nearly one at Miami.

437
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 4: I'm not sure I'm going to tell people to go

438
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 4: fade the RedHawks, considering they've actually like dominated their last

439
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 4: couple of games. It's not like the by this hair

440
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 4: and their chiney chin chin anymore. But you know it's

441
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 4: a big storyline. Undefeated team U Mass did give them

442
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 4: hell the first game. I actually kind of lean my

443
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:03,360
Speaker 4: Ohio in the rematch.

444
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, be a short spread. I think it's like twoish

445
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 1: for Kimpom.

446
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,120
Speaker 2: I want to say, I think eighty four to eighty four.

447
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,640
Speaker 1: I gotta looking at a five right now. Oh, okay,

448
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: bigger than I thought.

449
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 2: Eighty four to seventy nine.

450
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 3: This feels like a UMass potential, Like they play awesome,

451
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 3: they look like the more athletic team, and Miami just

452
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:23,360
Speaker 3: goes cold.

453
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 1: Could see that happening here some leans either way, it

454
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: looks sounds like for the boys.

455
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think okay, all had a Mondo game in

456
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 2: the first one.

457
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was a two point game. Probably where my

458
00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: mind is switching it up. Okay. Live dog section fellas

459
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,399
Speaker 1: last week mixed bag, so Oregon did not cover against Indiana.

460
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 1: Howard took Yell to overtime. They lost by six. I

461
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,280
Speaker 1: think that was right around the spread, so that would

462
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:52,080
Speaker 1: depend where that landed for spread Wise, Wisconsin took down

463
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: Illinois on the road, huge win for the Badgers, and

464
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 1: then San Jose State did cover against UNLV did I

465
00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: went out right? I think Matt took money line in

466
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: that game, but they did cover pretty big spread This week.

467
00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: On Monday I got a Southland two for free guys,

468
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 1: and then Tuesday I got three Power options. I'm kind

469
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: of playing with. I don't think I'm married any of

470
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 1: these necessarily, but want to throw them out there. See

471
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: anything sticks. In the Southland Gym, Corpus Christi is hosting

472
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,360
Speaker 1: Steven F. Austin and Lamar is going on the road

473
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 1: to ut Rio Grand Valley for the Power Games. On Tuesday,

474
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 1: we got Georgia plus seven per kimpom at Kentucky. They

475
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 1: could be dead, but also they could definitely need They

476
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 1: could definitely use this game for the resume. Virginia Tech

477
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:39,480
Speaker 1: plus eight at Miami. It's a big spot. Also, Arizona

478
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: State hosting Texas Tech off that Arizona win another big spot.

479
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 1: Both games are plus eight there the Southland Games Corpus

480
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 1: Christi plus five, Lamar plus seven per kimpom. Thoughts on

481
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 1: any of those are you going elsewhere?

482
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 4: I am going to back Virginia Tech running it back

483
00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 4: after they did well for me against Clemson last week.

484
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 4: They got the big road win there, and then they

485
00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 4: came home and undid any goodwill they had with the

486
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,239
Speaker 4: NSA selection committee by losing by twenty twenty three at

487
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,239
Speaker 4: home to Florida State. Absolutely can't do that if you're

488
00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 4: in a bubble situation. I'm going to stay away from Georgia.

489
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 4: I think, like you said, they're kind of dead man walking.

490
00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 4: They have almost fully played themselves out of the field

491
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:23,440
Speaker 4: after being relatively comfortably in even like three weeks ago.

492
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 4: And then I will be in attendance.

493
00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 2: At Arizona State as the host.

494
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,880
Speaker 4: Texas Tech so going to be a little dip out

495
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 4: to the desert before you and I are. All three

496
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 4: of us are out there for National Party next weekend.

497
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 4: It is a big time spot for sure.

498
00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 2: Texas Tech.

499
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 4: Off the win at Arizona, you got to go up

500
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,040
Speaker 4: the road to Tucson and take on ASU and like

501
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 4: zombie Bobby Hurly in an arena that's going to be

502
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 4: probably pretty dead because Arizona State has more or less

503
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:52,400
Speaker 4: given up on this team.

504
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 2: I can't do it.

505
00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 4: Texas Tech's not going down in a game that I'm

506
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 4: in attendance. Those are my Red Raiders, my preseason national

507
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 4: title picks. Treading back up, so of this group, Kai,

508
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,720
Speaker 4: I'm only going to back Virginia Tech plus eight. We

509
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 4: take it down to seven, matt I don't know. I

510
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 4: don't have a strong enough feel for either of the

511
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 4: Southland too far.

512
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, nothing in the Southland for me. It's funny you

513
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 3: mentioned Florida State. I actually had Boston College on my

514
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 3: money Lin Dog watch list coming off.

515
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 1: That they'll be in the favorite Fave section, Matthew. We'll

516
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: talk about it.

517
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 3: Yes, no, Donald hand Uh, pretty pretty important. So I

518
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 3: will throw in my maybe my favorite Pickoli. I like

519
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 3: ball State going to Ohio. They're playing better if you

520
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 3: don't look now, but they basically have their two best

521
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 3: players now healthy Ish Cayden Fish who started at Iowa State.

522
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 3: He's like actually playing like pretty good now than Juwan Maxi,

523
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 3: who was awesome at Youngstown, like a good Youngstown team.

524
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 3: They kind of held him back and then they're starting

525
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 3: to unleash him. They've been much more competitive.

526
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 1: I don't know.

527
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 3: I'm worried that this team is sort of like a

528
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 3: zombie type team. But again, they've been better lately and

529
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 3: they already beat Ohio once, so kind of like that angle.

530
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: Cardinals Cardinals from Matthew I will be on Corpus Christie

531
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 1: for the show here. There are no pushover. They can

532
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: be anyone, Top ninety defense, top three in the south Land,

533
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 1: very feisty. I think it's a really nice spot for them.

534
00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: Emotional atmosphere plus five for Corpus Christy. And then I'm

535
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:21,360
Speaker 1: with Jim on Virginia Tech bounce back game. I'm still

536
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 1: on his whole believer in Miami. We talked about how

537
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 1: basically there was a luckbox of a win against the

538
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 1: NC State for being down seven with one minute left,

539
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: and they can prove they can win these games. They

540
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 1: beat Clemson at Clemson by ten. You can do that.

541
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 1: You can be just about anybody on their home floor.

542
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 1: So those would be my two from their Corpus Christi

543
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: and va Tech. Okay, transitioning to favorite favorites last week,

544
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,760
Speaker 1: Yeah SFA couldn't get away from these texts A and

545
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,440
Speaker 1: M and Houston won by fourteen at Utah. I don't

546
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:49,960
Speaker 1: think that was a cover though. I think they fell

547
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: just short of that. Per the closing line this week

548
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: I have four options for the boys again, feel free

549
00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: to go off the board here. Baylor minus three to

550
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: Kansas State for kim Pum. Why would you ever bet

551
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: Kansas State right now? I am fully out on that team,

552
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:09,360
Speaker 1: as is Tang and the entire wild Cat Nation. I'll

553
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 1: be on Baylor, just gonna spoil that one. Texas minus

554
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,639
Speaker 1: nine hosting LSU. Thomas has done for the year for LSU,

555
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,920
Speaker 1: that's obviously a huge blow in. Texas has won four

556
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,640
Speaker 1: straight games. They're looking a lot better, looking, very prime

557
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 1: for the attorney. Florida State minus nine hosting Boston College. Guys,

558
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,880
Speaker 1: they're cooking. Covered four in a row, six of seven.

559
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 1: They just smacked Virginia attack on the road, could have

560
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: beaten Virginia, asking me an a wake they're competing. I'll

561
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 1: be on Florida State. And then, Matt, why wouldn't you

562
00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: take New Mexico against air Force. Air Force is one

563
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 1: and eleven against the spread over its last twelve. You

564
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 1: can't put numbers high enough for this team. Just last

565
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,440
Speaker 1: by thirty to Fresno State. Do you like any of

566
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 1: those games? Or are you going elsewhere?

567
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna keep doing the fair air Force thing.

568
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 3: I think they are starting to They are starting to

569
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 3: adjust the numbers, like they're drifting farther and farther from

570
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 3: the analytic. So there is a point where it becomes

571
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 3: a foolish investment. But just the the downward slope of

572
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 3: this team trajectory is pretty pretty sad.

573
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 1: You got Kayla Walker back high your boy.

574
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 3: Last two games didn't didn't matter much at all. I

575
00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 3: don't think he's fully healthy. Actually played terrible in both games.

576
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,360
Speaker 1: That's it though for me. I Boston Kyles, I guess said.

577
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 3: I think they can be randomly competitive in games, and

578
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 3: LSU Texas got to see if Max McKinnon is going

579
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 3: to be back. If they don't have McKennon or Thomas,

580
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 3: LSU has no chance. And then I don't trust Baylor enough.

581
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 3: As much as I want to do the you know,

582
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 3: hit the pinata, it is case State, but I just

583
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,239
Speaker 3: don't trust Baylor enough on the road.

584
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 2: Jim, Yeah, Baylor.

585
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 4: One I really thought about because Case State's last three

586
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 4: home games have been completely embarrassing. They did chose some

587
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 4: fight at Houston, but I wonder if that was like

588
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,239
Speaker 4: a man tang absolutely let us up.

589
00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:48,840
Speaker 2: This is a big team. We're actually going to show up.

590
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:51,639
Speaker 4: And then now in a game where it's like another

591
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,200
Speaker 4: non tournament team, did they completely roll over again?

592
00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 2: I would lean towards Baylor.

593
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,560
Speaker 4: I'm not going to jump in. I will, of course

594
00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 4: fade air Force. Let's get on board their boys.

595
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:00,359
Speaker 5: Kay.

596
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,680
Speaker 4: Do you know what air Force's ATS record is in

597
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,240
Speaker 4: the Year of Our Lord twenty twenty six.

598
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: It's gotta be bad. I know they're one in eleven

599
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 1: last twelve, so it is one and eleven.

600
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,680
Speaker 4: The only cover was a buzzer beating bucket against Grand

601
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,440
Speaker 4: Canyon to cover twenty five by losing by twenty four.

602
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 4: I am just gonna keep on keeping on there. They

603
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,119
Speaker 4: lose by thirty every time it's one of the teams.

604
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 4: It's like good in the league as New Mexico is,

605
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 4: so I just I can't get away from that. I'm

606
00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 4: gonna have to keep riding there.

607
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 5: Man.

608
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 2: Like I said, I thought about Baylor.

609
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 4: Texas also if McKinnon is also is out with Thomas.

610
00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 2: But it's kind of a weird bubble.

611
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 4: A sandwich for Texas where they just beat Missou and

612
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 4: now coming up next weekend they've got the Georgia thing

613
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 4: where they could almost put Georgie out of their misery

614
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 4: so that one I could see them being like a little.

615
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 2: Bit sleepy for so I think it's just gonna be

616
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 2: New Mexico for me.

617
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: I'm adding in New Mexico as well, like I said,

618
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: Florida State and Baylor will be on the card. Air

619
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,640
Speaker 1: Force is three hundred spots behind New Mexico and KIMPOM.

620
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 1: They're in the same conference and they're three hundred spots

621
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,680
Speaker 1: below them, and in KIMPOM do something about air force

622
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: in this league. It's just not fair in the current environment. Okay, fellas,

623
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 1: we're moving on the spots section. Last week I picked

624
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: out a couple of solid spots. I would say Xavier

625
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: took down the Johnnies, excuse me, took the Johnnies two overtime,

626
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 1: not took them down. The Johnny's in fact took them down,

627
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:30,680
Speaker 1: but they covered Xavior. I think Matt at least was

628
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 1: on that one. Perhaps Jim as well. Miami indeed slaid

629
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 1: North Carolina at home. North kinda off that Duke win

630
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,240
Speaker 1: and then Duke themselves beat Pitt by sixteen on the road.

631
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,239
Speaker 1: I believe that was a cover. I'm not exactly right

632
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 1: around the number. Yeah, and then BYU won and covered

633
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: at Baylor one by five on the road in Waco.

634
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: This week, a couple spots I'm looking at here. Michigan

635
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: State is hosting UCLA. They're favored by nine per Kim

636
00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: Pom on Tuesday, Sparti's off that big lost to Wisconsin,

637
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 1: and UCLA just lost by thirty to Michigan. Maybe a

638
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 1: little bit dejection there for the Bruins coming into an

639
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 1: anger Michigan State environment. And then UCF was the other

640
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: one I picked out here hosting TCU. TCU off the

641
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: overtime win at Oklahoma State. Now you're traveling to UCF.

642
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: You se have a team that has lost three games

643
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 1: in a row, but certainly capable of beating anybody in

644
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 1: this league and bouncing back at home minus three for Kempump.

645
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: Those are my two options. Jim, you might have one

646
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,000
Speaker 1: more here. Do you want to mention or maybe a couple?

647
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:30,600
Speaker 1: What do you think?

648
00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna ride UCF Kai. I think it's a

649
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 4: perfect spot. I love how you picked that out just

650
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:40,480
Speaker 4: off their struggles. And then TCU had to survival against

651
00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 4: k State in the first February seventh, and then they

652
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,480
Speaker 4: win against Iowa State and overtime, Like this is kind

653
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 4: of the perfect one where it runs out for me

654
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 4: and you buy a low sol high on the home team.

655
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 2: I also love.

656
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 4: Norfolk State plus one on Monday against Maryland Eastern Shore.

657
00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 2: They lost at home to the Hawks.

658
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 4: In the first So I'm liking this road revenge spot

659
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 4: angle where the better team is now on the road. Now,

660
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 4: these these home environments can be insane, like the crowd

661
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 4: is like standing on the court. Sometimes it gets really bizarre.

662
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 4: But I'm gonna ride with Norfolk there plus one I

663
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 4: pup over to minus one. I'm okay with that too.

664
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,880
Speaker 4: I still stubbornly think they're the best team in the league,

665
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 4: even though they're all but dead from winning the regular

666
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 4: season title. I think they get a they pick off

667
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:28,600
Speaker 4: the top team in the standings there.

668
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I guess the best spots probably NC State, right,

669
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 3: we already talked about that. No, I think you hit

670
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 3: all the other good ones.

671
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 2: KAI considering U c l A. Is that that's maybe that's.

672
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,440
Speaker 1: We'll see what's about. How much guys are Dave.

673
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,400
Speaker 2: Your booker revenge and an arbor guys, Yeah.

674
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: Sky Clark did play against Michigan, Not I would say

675
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 1: very effectively, necessarily actually pretty game actually, and they look.

676
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 3: Good for a half, but they just have no depth.

677
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 3: I just yeah, that's the problem Ucla. I think they're

678
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 3: a good first half, as our guys said in and out.

679
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 3: I might take UCLA first half there, but they just

680
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,680
Speaker 3: have no depth. They get worn down, and I think

681
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 3: the size and physicality of Michigan State is just gonna

682
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 3: take its toll in the final twenty. Also, they have

683
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 3: one last day to rest and recoup. I'm sure that

684
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 3: Colonel will be making comments about that. But Michigan State

685
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 3: played Friday that that was the demolition I at Wisconsin,

686
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 3: so I get an extra day to come back and

687
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 3: get ready for that game too.

688
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, and keep in mind Illinois on the horizon. For UCLA,

689
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 1: they're in the midst of a ridiculous three game stretch here. Yeah,

690
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: the second half was forty six to eighteen against Michigan.

691
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: Not great, that's great, good at all, not good at all.

692
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,480
Speaker 1: I'm taking UCF. I like that spot against TCU hornor Frogs.

693
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 1: Though they're horny, they could make it to the tournament. Still,

694
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: they're in play despite a Q four loss in New

695
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 1: Orleans start the year.

696
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 2: They're like they might be in right now.

697
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 4: It's crazy, like the double battle win at Oklahoma State,

698
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 4: the whole state. Yeah, they've somehow renavigated back into the picture.

699
00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,160
Speaker 1: David Punch is a stud five Q one wins.

700
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:14,200
Speaker 5: Look at that, Okay, trash section, what's that smell? It

701
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 5: stinks me just trash, the sweet, sweet trash.

702
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 2: The trash is a gold mine, old mine.

703
00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: Last week we chose the directional Illinois games, well two

704
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: of them, Eastern Illinois, Western Illinois. It was actually an

705
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,920
Speaker 1: up tempo affair. It was not slow. It went over.

706
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,440
Speaker 1: Leathernex won their first OBC game of the season, So

707
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,320
Speaker 1: congrats to the Leathernex. This week we're going to the

708
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 1: MIAC Kim Palm number three sixty four. Coppin State at

709
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,680
Speaker 1: number three fifty eight s e oh my gosh, SC

710
00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: State South Carolina State South kinda of states minor six

711
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: per Kim Palm.

712
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 2: Here.

713
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 1: Coppin's actually won two in a row, so not not

714
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: the number three sixty four of your father's age. So

715
00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: just so I kind of say, it's been a lot

716
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: better than me I play. After we thought they'd be

717
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 1: at least I thought they'd be pretty good this season

718
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: really really bad non con for them. Been better in

719
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 1: conference play. Game one, for some context, is a two

720
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 1: point road win for South kind of state their average

721
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: two point attempt distance in that game it was ten feet.

722
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 1: It was ten feet average two point distance. They shot

723
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: fifty percent and also fifty three percent from three. I

724
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 1: think Coppin bounces back in this game, Matthew. I know

725
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 1: you have a huge opinion in it. What do you

726
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: think in the trash section?

727
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 3: I have no opinion in this game. I actually I'm

728
00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:34,200
Speaker 3: taking out a different different trash. Oh you're taking out

729
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 3: more trash.

730
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: I'm looking at.

731
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 3: Abling Tarleton like I know it's not gonna be a

732
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 3: super low scoring because but I just think every time

733
00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 3: these two teams play, it's such a running game game

734
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 3: where like there could be sixty foulds. This will be

735
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,920
Speaker 3: a discussing game to watch. And I like Abling Tarleton's

736
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 3: fair by five.

737
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 1: They literally just played on Saturday, so back to back,

738
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be a weird situation.

739
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 3: I think this is like a an awesome live betting

740
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 3: game if you want a dial in on your on

741
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:02,600
Speaker 3: your Monday night.

742
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 4: But I like Adam Tarlton as Tarlton as its typical

743
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,120
Speaker 4: who's playing? Did you guys see that Deor Johnson saga

744
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 4: this weekend refusing I think it was the the barstool

745
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,720
Speaker 4: Tarleton State account tweeted from very good sources, Deor Johnson's

746
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,359
Speaker 4: been cleared to play, but is refusing to And then

747
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:24,640
Speaker 4: Deor Johnson tweeted this long paragraph like clearly either a

748
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,920
Speaker 4: lawyer or chat GPT composed it because it was like

749
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 4: giant words and that guy's like never never stayed in

750
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 4: the single school for more than a year. But he

751
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 4: says he's not clear to play, but he's been out.

752
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 4: Cam McDow has been out, Christen Pack has been out.

753
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 4: Like you could argue that's their three.

754
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,439
Speaker 1: Back, but not healthy. He's like, I watched a little

755
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 1: bit of that game.

756
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 4: He's not Yes, I don't have any idea what's going

757
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 4: on there. I agree there will be a lot of

758
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 4: fouls in the weekend game. There were only thirty nine files.

759
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,839
Speaker 4: I could see it being closer to fifty. Here, stay

760
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 4: away from me, Kyle. I like the coppenhangle. You got

761
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,360
Speaker 4: a little bit of potential there with the way they're playing.

762
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,320
Speaker 4: I know they beat North Carolina Central without Coory Carvey,

763
00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 4: who's like maybe the best big man in the league.

764
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 4: But South Carolina State is un mess. Like their whole

765
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,280
Speaker 4: thing last year was we come at you in waves,

766
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 4: we press you. We've got ten good players.

767
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 2: This year they've got fifteen players, but none of them

768
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 2: are good, which is why they're so terrible.

769
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:22,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I Coppin weirdly has momentum right now. It feels

770
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 4: disgusting to say that.

771
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 1: And Matt's going back to Matts Adway and Charleston. They've

772
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: played twice this year. One game was fifty fouls and

773
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 1: fifty five free throws. The other game was thirty nine

774
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,560
Speaker 1: fouls and fifty free throws. Fifty one free throws, fifty

775
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,959
Speaker 1: three throws in both games. Yes, so they're averaging fifty

776
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 1: free throws a game and get the chiller this year.

777
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 1: So yes, trash indeed, don't watch that game. Okay, Fellas,

778
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: good tight show today, let's round up. I've got one

779
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,440
Speaker 1: more pick. Oh, we have one more pick before we

780
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: hit best bets. Okay.

781
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like my BYU at the buzzer last year

782
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,400
Speaker 4: or last week by at Baylor game that just didn't

783
00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 4: naturally come up in any section. But I'm going to

784
00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,839
Speaker 4: take the role Badge Badgers on the road at Ohio State,

785
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 4: they are a dog per Kin Palm on Tuesday Night,

786
00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,040
Speaker 4: one point underdog. But they remember got that extra day

787
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 4: off where they played Friday. Ohio State played Saturday. Ohio

788
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,520
Speaker 4: State was without John Mobley, and I think that could

789
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,160
Speaker 4: really catch up to them here. I mean, they kind

790
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,040
Speaker 4: of had Virginia beat until they stopped scoring for the

791
00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 4: final ten minutes. But obviously this wis constant team can travel.

792
00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,080
Speaker 4: They won at Michigan, they won at Illinois. I believe

793
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,040
Speaker 4: in the setup, the build of the team, with the

794
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:34,440
Speaker 4: three point shooting they have in the front court two

795
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,279
Speaker 4: great drivers and Boyd and Blackwell in the back court.

796
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,000
Speaker 2: I don't think Ohio State can get stops.

797
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,239
Speaker 4: Give me Wisconsin on the road until like minus two.

798
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 1: I like that played Jim hornback.

799
00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm endorsing it. So I guess that means nothing.

800
00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 1: So you're not actually gonna take it. So I'm not

801
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:54,920
Speaker 1: gonna take it nothing. I just know I would to

802
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,440
Speaker 1: announce it. Know I've been very anti Wisconsin.

803
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:57,839
Speaker 3: I've just sort of thought about it, and it took

804
00:36:57,880 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 3: time and it was like, no, NICKI boydstering the ship.

805
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 3: My guy, I'm not going to doubt him.

806
00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,560
Speaker 1: Okay, let's remind the good folks at home while we're

807
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: on this week. Bad week for me last week I

808
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 1: was one and four. Wasn't good. But this week I'm

809
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,800
Speaker 1: gonna take aginst the state against North Carolina. Call it

810
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 1: up to seven. I think it's gonna get up there.

811
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,560
Speaker 1: Keim Palm's got three, it's gonna go pretty high. I

812
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:23,279
Speaker 1: think CIMO plus five ish against UT Martin text A

813
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 1: and m Corbus Christy plus five ish against Stephen F.

814
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:30,400
Speaker 1: Austin Virginia Tech plus seven plus eight at Miami, Florida

815
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: State minus nine minus ten against Boston College Baylor minus

816
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,959
Speaker 1: three around there at k State, New Mexico minus whatever

817
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,360
Speaker 1: you want against air Force, and then UCF around minus

818
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,879
Speaker 1: three against TCU. So a lot of backings for Kai

819
00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:45,399
Speaker 1: this week.

820
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 2: Five volume this week like it. Yeah, yeah, when you

821
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:51,719
Speaker 2: go one in four, you double your mount, just force it.

822
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 1: That's what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to double

823
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:54,399
Speaker 1: down and go on tilt.

824
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,640
Speaker 4: It's beautiful. It's beautiful to see. I'm shedding a tear

825
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 4: at watching you execute that strategy. I was three and

826
00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 4: two last week. This week I am joining you on

827
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,960
Speaker 4: UCF and New Mexico for sure, like those spots and

828
00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 4: just fading air Force one and twelve ats, come on,

829
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,120
Speaker 4: do your job, Falcons Virginia Tech with you as well.

830
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 2: Plus eight might sprinkle the money line. I don't know.

831
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,080
Speaker 4: They're a tricky team to figure out, especially in the

832
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 4: bubble world. Wisconsin up to minus two at Ohio State,

833
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,680
Speaker 4: I think they'll probably flip to a favorite if Mobley

834
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 4: is out.

835
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 2: Nancy State only gonna go up to minus five.

836
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 4: I'll be a little more price strict on that one,

837
00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 4: but man, it is no Cale Wilson for UNC a

838
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 4: real test for them, and NC State off losses and

839
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:39,760
Speaker 4: then Norfolk State. I like that Monday spot. They've already

840
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:41,279
Speaker 4: lost at Maryland Eastern Shore.

841
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 2: Are they lost at home? Excuse me, the Eastern Shore.

842
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,080
Speaker 2: Now they go on the road to Princess Anne.

843
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 4: As everybody knows, that's where Maryland Eastern Shore is. I

844
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 4: think Norfolk gets it done there, Matthias.

845
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:54,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to keep it tight a total.

846
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:58,840
Speaker 3: As I mentioned earlier, Grand Canyon and San Diego State

847
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,880
Speaker 3: price would be at like one thirty five, one thirty

848
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 3: four under undercorrect, not less very few points. I think

849
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 3: Ball stayed money Line, the fighting Mike Lewis's disciple of

850
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,640
Speaker 3: Nick Cronin, and then I have New Mexico as sort

851
00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 3: of the Pinata Fader Force bet after a one and

852
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 3: two week for me, Womp, womp, thank you Ax for
