I mean, if 18 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 7: you can shoot a bogie on every hole, that's ninety golf. 19 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 2: I know we have people that actually that shoot way 20 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 2: better than that. It's just a personal thing. 21 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 7: Like, yeah, I never even took up golf till like 22 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 7: two and a half years ago because I was a 23 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 7: baseball player for years. 24 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: So you know, hopefully that's something we can accomplish this year. 25 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 6: All right, Well, I'm a good putter. That's about all 26 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 6: I can say. 27 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 7: You and I tied on the mini golf course and 28 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 7: the in the the gambling a. 29 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 6: Little Yeah, that's funny. All right, let's I'm not going 30 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 6: to go too much into the NFL. It was a 31 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 6: pretty boring matchup weekend. I think there was only two 32 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 6: playoff teams, that two definitive playoff teams that faced each 33 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 6: other during the day, and that was Kansas City New Orleans. 34 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 6: Kansas City comes out with a win. 35 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 5: I tech. 36 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 6: I guess they technically did cover the first time in 37 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 6: seven weeks because the line closed minus two and a half. 38 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 5: Depending on what number you got there. You could have 39 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 5: middled it. 40 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 6: You could have got you could have got the Saints 41 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 6: plus three and a half, and gas you could have 42 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 6: got che minus to just stressed the importance of getting 43 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 6: the best number out there, especially around key numbers. 44 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 5: I mean, the Bills look great again. 45 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 6: I was the asshole out there that bet the the 46 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 6: Broncos on Saturday and that didn't go too well. 47 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,399 Speaker 2: The Bills making the water. 48 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 6: And then I guess the shocker of the weekend is 49 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 6: the New York Football Jets beat the Rams. Well, I 50 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 6: don't know where this came from. The Rams looked like 51 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 6: they were hungover, disinterested, and maybe still drunk during the 52 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 6: first half of that game, and then they kind of 53 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 6: woke up in the second half but couldn't do enough 54 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 6: to get the win. And the Jets get the win. 55 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 6: The Seahawks take over first place. Now the Jags are 56 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 6: the favorite to get the number one overall draft pick, 57 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 6: in likely Trevor Lawrence. Speaking of Trevor Lawrence, we're gonna 58 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 6: get to a college football recap. Now he will be 59 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 6: in college football playoff, as will Alabama, who won but 60 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 6: didn't cover. 61 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 5: We'll talk about that game. 62 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 6: Ohio State who had a scare for a while and 63 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 6: a bunch of players out. Guy Ravel, he ended up cashing. 64 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 6: I told him not too. I told him let it ride. 65 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 6: He's still in me. 66 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 5: Five K Daryl. 67 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,359 Speaker 6: And then the fourth team was Notre Dame. I was 68 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 6: shocked at the line this morning was like minus five hundred. 69 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 6: That was gonna be Notre Dame. I thought it was 70 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 6: a little more in question than that because of how 71 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 6: Notre Dame lost. Maybe text A and M had a 72 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 6: shot sec Love. Everyone just saw Notre Dame and get crushed. 73 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 6: But no, Notre Dame, not against the four Seeds, a 74 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 6: three touchdown underdog against Alabama. And now I got to 75 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 6: sit here and contemplate how I'm not gonna tell. 76 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 5: Her what was value in that line for the next 77 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 5: couple of weeks. 78 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 6: Any initial thoughts on who should have got in initial lines. 79 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 5: I think Clemson's want to touchdown favorite of Ohio State. 80 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean this is I mean, we wrote the 81 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 7: piece up with the projections, came out this morning before 82 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 7: all of the early show announcing the top four for 83 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 7: the playoff, and I said flat out in the article 84 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 7: that was released this morning, this is pretty easy. The 85 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 7: Committee's going to sit back and look at Notre Dames 86 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 7: went over Clemson is the most impressive thing. 87 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: Nothing Texas, A and M is done, especially you look 88 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:22,919 Speaker 2: at some of the wins. 89 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 5: That they have. 90 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 7: None of that is going to impress the committee. They're 91 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 7: not going to slim past Notre Dame, you know, like 92 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 7: it or made it. Notre Dame was the team that 93 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 7: should have gotten the fourth slot, especially when you take 94 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 7: into account. 95 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 2: The eyeball revenue. You know what, I've. 96 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 7: Believed in this eyeball revenue theory for years, Like when 97 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 7: TCU and Baylor were supposedly going to make the College 98 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 7: Football Playoff in twenty fourteen, both booted out over in 99 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 7: Ohio State team. But I mean, you know that iiO 100 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,360 Speaker 7: State team was legit, But you're going to draw four 101 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 7: times as much money with names like Notre Dame in 102 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 7: Ohio State, then you are a Baylor or a TCU 103 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 7: or at Texas A and M. And that's just how 104 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 7: it goes. As far as the points spreads go, they're 105 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 7: both inflated. They're both completely inflated. Now does that mean 106 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 7: that Alabama can't cover it? Look what happened against Florida 107 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 7: last night. We sat here and so. 108 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 2: That that number was completely inflated. So we have to 109 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 2: make the decision. 110 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 7: Notre Dame and Ohio State can do damage control enough 111 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 7: to keep it within the number and possibly win. 112 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 2: I think the answer about winning is no for Notre Dame. 113 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 2: I think Clemson. I think Ohio Saint Clemson is gonna 114 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 2: be a barn burner. 115 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 7: I actually do think that Ohio State's a live dog 116 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 7: in that after they get healthy, after they get their 117 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 7: players back, I actually think that's gonna be a much 118 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 7: more competitive game. And I think Ohio State has a 119 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,679 Speaker 7: real shot just from initial everything that I'm seeing. 120 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 2: Initially, Yeah, we're gonna we'll have a Playoff. 121 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 6: We're gonna have a number of ball preview episodes, but 122 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 6: we'll have a second one will come out on Wednesday 123 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 6: Wednesday night ish for the Friday and Saturday games. We're 124 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 6: gonna talk about all the weekday games through Thursday. 125 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 5: Today. 126 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 6: We'll talk motivation, we'll talk matchups, and I think one 127 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 6: of the most important things this year I don't know 128 00:05:56,120 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 6: how I'm gonna approach it yet, is trying to figure out, Okay, 129 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 6: do I want to take this team now? Because I 130 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 6: think that there's a higher risk of the team that 131 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 6: they're playing having multiple opt outs. So I'll give you 132 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 6: an example, Like these Bowl games, these non playoff bowl games. 133 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 5: It's like there's not gonna be fans. 134 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 6: These kids have been away from their families and live 135 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 6: risk like your pro career. 136 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 5: For like this empty stadium, meaningless bowl game. 137 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 6: Right, I can see how some kids would make that decision, 138 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 6: and kids do this every year anyway, I'm just saying now, 139 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 6: the incentive is even greater for this to happen. So 140 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 6: I look at a game like Florida Oklahoma. I think 141 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 6: Florida Open is a three point favorite. I'm not sure 142 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 6: where the line is now, but I say to myself, 143 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 6: pits is already out, and you know, once one guy 144 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 6: goes is that's set. 145 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 5: The presence is tress also maybe sit out. 146 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 6: So trying to figure out you're gonna see a lot 147 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 6: of line moves and trying to figure out, all right, 148 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 6: which teams have a really high risk of key players 149 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 6: potentially sitting out. Sometimes are just not gonna know at all. 150 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 6: Is it worth the exercise. We'll talk about that, but 151 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 6: let's recap the weekend and we'll let you guys drive 152 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 6: the bus. As always there with your voicemails. I haven't 153 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 6: listened to them, and I hope no one. Everyone just 154 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 6: kind of was too busy, too preoccupied with the conference 155 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:11,840 Speaker 6: ship in Chips to notice that I bet Service Academy over, 156 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 6: So I don't know if. 157 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 5: That's on here. 158 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 6: I did win money on Leech Final that Leach.

I would not be 200 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 7: surprised to see bulls canceled, teams withdraw and then teams 201 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 7: like maybe like Army who were practicing every day ready 202 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 7: to come in. So keep your eyes on that because 203 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 7: if Army is still practicing, I mean that's something I 204 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 7: got to read up on, like is Monkin's still practicing? 205 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 7: If he is, and they slide right in there, what 206 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 7: an advantage. So just keep your eyes over something like 207 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:21,600 Speaker 7: that happening. 208 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, one of the things if you go back to 209 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 6: like nineteen eighty service Academies or like seventy percent against 210 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 6: the spread of bulls. I remember we talked about this 211 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,079 Speaker 6: last year there. I'll have to dig up the exact number. 212 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 6: It's just really good and it makes sense, right. Bulls 213 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 6: a lot of times are about motivation. You know, all 214 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 6: these teams sometimes that just don't show up, don't care 215 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 6: that they weren't really preparing or focused. 216 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 5: Service academy schools not really a concern. 217 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 6: They're almost always going to show up for every single game, 218 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 6: which is why they're generally a great bet. 219 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 5: Remember that Houston game Army won by like one hundred 220 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 5: and fifty. 221 00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 10: Stuckey Colin the maction over.

There 231 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 6: was just ten minutes left in the fourth quarter. I 232 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 6: was like, wait, is this game not gonna go over? 233 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 6: I just suddenly hit me that must have just been 234 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 6: absolutely But you don't think there's any I mean, you 235 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 6: go to that second half. It's a Mac game. You 236 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 6: don't think there's any way in the world there's not 237 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 6: fourteen points scored in that second half. I will take 238 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 6: gret at my best best I do best call, worst 239 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 6: called bet regret. 240 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 5: Right now, I've. 241 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 6: Bestcall has to be ball State just because I bet them, 242 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 6: but I also had them the MAC Manifesto paid off. 243 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 6: That was my best call of the year. I had 244 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 6: ball State to win the MAC and didn't. Hedge Florida 245 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 6: didn't come through, but at least they covered fall State 246 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 6: was my best call. But I feel so bad for overbackers. 247 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 6: That's as brutal as it gets, as far as worst 248 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,679 Speaker 6: call I have to I mean, I'll have. 249 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 5: To go to the Service Academy over. But I'll also 250 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:13,680 Speaker 5: say Notre Dame. 251 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 6: Notre Dame got kind of screwed early on and they 252 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 6: missed that twenty our field goal. They missed that wide 253 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 6: open pass, but look at the box score they got crushed. 254 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 6: That didn't make a difference. 255 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 5: Bet regret is I had the Oregon USC over. 256 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 6: Great call by you an Oregon, by the way, and 257 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 6: I should have got off at half. I had an 258 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 6: opportunity to even in potential small middle. Oregon wasn't moving 259 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 6: the ball that well. They were going so slow they 260 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 6: weren't really were throwing it. USC wasn't doing that much 261 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 6: on offense. It still got the twenty one fourteen at 262 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 6: the half because of some Fluke turnovers, some Fluke plays, 263 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 6: So it did not surprise me. 264 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 5: In the second f of that game kind of crawled, 265 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 5: so I should have got off there. That's my bet regret. 266 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 5: How about you best called, worst call, bet regret. 267 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, best call is going to be Oregon. 268 00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 7: I said, you don't even need the points, and so 269 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 7: it's really good to see them pretty much, you know, 270 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 7: lead from wire to wire and dominate that game. A 271 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 7: little bit of a flurry there for USC at the end, 272 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 7: but Oregon was able to hold on. And just every 273 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 7: time you heard somebody's name, whether it was on the defense, 274 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 7: whether it's Thibodeaux or showed all these players are back 275 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 7: next year for Oregon, so really big deal for the Ducks. 276 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 7: They do have a date at Ohio State in September, 277 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 7: I think the on the eleventh, So just monster season 278 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 7: coming up for and I think they get everybody back. 279 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 7: That was best call, bet regret, it's going to be Tulsa. 280 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 7: I didn't lay a dime on Tulsa and chirped about 281 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 7: it for weeks about how this was such a huge spot. 282 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,680 Speaker 7: Defense showed up offense did their job, and I just 283 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 7: you know, ended up not playing it. And it was 284 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 7: you know something, you know, I power rated at twelve 285 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 7: and it was still higher than that, and I should 286 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 7: have taken it and I didn't. I think the weather 287 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 7: scared me off a little bit, not sure what was 288 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 7: going to happen with such a terrible weather there. You know, 289 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 7: I guess worst call of the day, I don't know, 290 00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 7: take take your letter. I can't say Oregon State. I 291 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 7: know it was a little bit of a trolling on 292 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 7: Oregon State, but they lost a ton of players, a 293 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 7: lot of injuries during that game late at night against 294 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 7: Arizona State, and Arizona State just didn't stop scoring on them. 295 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 7: I'd say, you know, Florida first half was just a 296 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 7: bad guess on when those points were going to come 297 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,959 Speaker 7: in Dan Mullen's clock management in the first half. He 298 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 7: should be fired alone for allowing Alabama to have a 299 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 7: possession with a minute left on the clock when he 300 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 7: could have easily I mean, how many times you'd have 301 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 7: to tweet that out. If Dan Mullen knew how to 302 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 7: manage a halftime clock, we could be looking at a 303 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 7: different story today for the college football playoffs. So you know, 304 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,079 Speaker 7: I'll go ahead and I'm glad Alabama team total got over. 305 00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 7: Felt like a struggle there for a little bit, but 306 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 7: I'll take worset call is Florida minus ten missed out 307 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 7: on that one, I think by at least a full score. 308 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 5: But Dan Mullen didn't help me any Kyle fits is 309 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 5: just a monster. 310 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 12: By the way, man, go yourself, Stucky, Can you sign 311 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 12: the bull mac manifesto My University of Buffalo bowls, My 312 00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 12: seven to one six University of buffoot balls were better 313 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 12: than the ball State kids all the year.

He gets to the whole year, 340 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 6: the whole season, and then on the third play of 341 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 6: the conference title game you throw him out because he 342 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 6: tackled with his shoulder. 343 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 7: Come on, Matt Hampbell looked like he got shot out 344 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 7: of a cannon. Like he's an interurant in the Royal. 345 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 2: Rumble for WWE. 346 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 7: I he was going ballistic with some of these calls 347 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 7: in this game. But at the end of the day, 348 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,160 Speaker 7: Iowa State three turnovers. They shot themselves in the foot, 349 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 7: especially in the end zone. That's what kept him from 350 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 7: winning the Big Twelve Championship. There's two things you can't 351 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 7: handicap turnovers. Injuries. Turnovers is the reason I always state 352 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 7: is not the Big Twelve champions and targeting and targeting. 353 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 10: Hey, what do you mean, brock Perdy having commedy? We 354 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:45,360 Speaker 10: both love to puke all over ourselves this Saturday morning. 355 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 5: Oh. 356 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 6: Also, Oklahoma's once it's touchdown, it's what a touchdown? Which 357 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 6: is the difference than the game on a drop pick, 358 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 6: wide open drop pick that got deflected into a completion touchdown. 359 00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 9: Next play man literally just going cyclone. They looked so 360 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 9: fucking good. What the brock purty three picks? 361 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 11: Fun? 362 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 9: And then we got in the rest chicken off the 363 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 9: in Oklahoma coach kicking someone over targeting that was horse 364 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 9: or what the fuck? Do we need to get a 365 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 9: god special teams coach like holy scrounch the other some 366 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 9: money like fuck. And don't get me wrong, I love 367 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 9: this program, but god dammit, does it ever sucked to 368 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 9: lose like that? Man, the Sooners we will be coming 369 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 9: for the next year. 370 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a really good point too. 371 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 6: In that Iowa wastake game is that they're kicking I 372 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 6: mean their special teams all year were awful. They can't 373 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 6: kick it off. The Oklahoma had so many big returns. 374 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 6: There's a team that never returned it all year. That 375 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 6: gave him a good field position and definitely impacted the 376 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 6: way that that game played out. Ohio State went twenty 377 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 6: to ten. Did it take anything from that game? Are 378 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 6: you more impressed with Clempson's dominant victory over Notre Dame? 379 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 5: Anything you want to mention before we move on to 380 00:16:59,160 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 5: these balls. 381 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 2: I mean, of course, the Ohio State. 382 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 7: Their performance against Northwestern is what's fresh on better's minds. 383 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 7: When the odds makers put out a spread the way 384 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,479 Speaker 7: they do with Clemson minus seven, I mean that number 385 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 7: literally should be three and a half and four, and 386 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 7: people are using the results that happened on Saturday and 387 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 7: rolling them into this. Northwestern played fantastic defense, but Ohio 388 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 7: State was off of a long break, Chris Olave didn't play, 389 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:26,719 Speaker 7: There were a lot there's some depth issues going on 390 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 7: with Ohio State. 391 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,159 Speaker 2: This is none of these. 392 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 7: I mean, they're gonna get all these players back, They're 393 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 7: gonna be healthy, and I expect a much better Ohio 394 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,679 Speaker 7: State to show up in the Rose Bowl in Arlington. 395 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 7: Interesting there. So yeah, I definitely agree with Ohio State 396 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 7: in the seven there. I think it's just way too inflated. 397 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 7: I actually thought Darren did a good job of buying 398 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 7: out when he did. 399 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 2: You wanted to. 400 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 7: Get that first possession, told him absolutely, you're not selling 401 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 7: out at halftime, but you're gonna get your first possession 402 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 7: in and if you get lucky and they get a score, 403 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 7: you're just gonna let it ride. You're gonna let it ride. 404 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,359 Speaker 7: So the momentum swing, that's and that's when he cashed out. 405 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 7: But Ohio State did come back, did win that game. 406 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 7: Covered the second half total of minus seven and a 407 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 7: half and they weren't even close to full strength. And 408 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 7: I haven't played in a while. It's gonna be a 409 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 7: different team that shows up to play in the college 410 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 7: football playoff. So I don't know what to say about 411 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 7: Notre Dame Alabama. That number is inflated, and it probably 412 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 7: should be inflated after. I have a really hard time 413 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 7: seeing Notre Dame hang around with Alabama here. But at 414 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 7: the same time, what does Nick Saban want to do 415 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 7: in a semi final game with you know, ten days 416 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 7: to go before a national championship game? 417 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 2: So we'll get into those. 418 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 7: But now as far as Ohio State goes, I think 419 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 7: it was, you know, a great job for the Northwestern effort, 420 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 7: but that was. 421 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 2: Not a full Ohio State healthy team. So we'll see 422 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 2: how they look here at the playoff. 423 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 5: I had Ole Miss, loved Ole Miss, and then they. 424 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 6: Their top two pass catchers opt out after I make 425 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 6: the bet, and then I'll let you pulls out another 426 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 6: lucky with what twenty five percent post came win probability. 427 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,359 Speaker 13: I hope you're enjoying this great action network podcast.

Monday afternoon bowl game doesn't happen often. 443 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 6: It's on ESPN APP State against North Texas in the 444 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 6: Myrtle Beach Bowl. 445 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 5: I think it's all it's called. Is the Myrtle Beach Bowl. 446 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 6: At BETNGM, the official odds provider of the Action Network podcast, 447 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,120 Speaker 6: app State's a twenty one point favorite over under sixty 448 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,919 Speaker 6: four and a half. Here's the problem. I make this 449 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 6: line twenty one and sixty five. I mean, does that 450 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 6: stake care when you're talking about a twenty one point favorite. 451 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 5: That's you're gonna have to decide that. North Texas is 452 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,640 Speaker 5: just a mess this year. 453 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,400 Speaker 6: They have one of the best receivers Jalen Darden in 454 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 6: the country is like twenty He's like nineteen touchdown somehow. 455 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 6: But their defense is horrendous. They're very undisciplined team. It's 456 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,159 Speaker 6: not a team you want to bet, especially when the 457 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:24,199 Speaker 6: scorekeeper is against you, as it happened with me. I 458 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 6: make this line spot on. I have my betting dice 459 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 6: right here. I said, I'd roll them to see what 460 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 6: if you really want, like just to put fifty dollars 461 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 6: on this game to have some act And I came 462 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 6: up over. That is basically my input on this game. 463 00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 6: Take it away here, what do you say? 464 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a game. 465 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 7: I projected eighteen and a half and sixty fourish, so 466 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 7: the number came out eighteen and a half. It's now 467 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 7: up to twenty one. I put a bet in on 468 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 7: the action app at nineteen. Hope everybody was able to 469 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 7: get on that because it looks like we're twenty one 470 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 7: across the board, which is where it should be heading into. 471 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 7: While you guys are listening to this on Monday morning, 472 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 7: there's just you know, there's two. It's not that there's 473 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 7: a huge edge here. But the one thing I can 474 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,919 Speaker 7: come up with App State is a they've played at 475 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:10,159 Speaker 7: the surf Turf before they actually really Sean Clark was 476 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 7: adamant about how we will take the visitor locker room 477 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 7: because we're more familiar with the visitors' locker room. 478 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 2: Listen. 479 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 7: App State has won all five bowl games that they've 480 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,200 Speaker 7: been in, and Sethil Treill has lost all three bowl 481 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 7: games that he's coached for North Texas. You know, I 482 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 7: think that's something to keep in mind here when you 483 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 7: think about program success and just one team hasn't one 484 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 7: team doesn't app Staatee is definitely the one that you 485 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 7: want to back. 486 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 2: Here. 487 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 7: App State finished second in the nation and defensive passing 488 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,119 Speaker 7: success rate that's going to be very important against the 489 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 7: North Texas team that likes to go to the air 490 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 7: that is second in the nation, and tempo app State 491 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 7: is fourth. And tackling that's I go back to just 492 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,439 Speaker 7: tackling and just you know, the program in general is 493 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 7: just a much more well run team at app State 494 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,720 Speaker 7: than there is going on at North Texas. App State 495 00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 7: is twenty third defensive pass coverage. It's just a whole 496 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 7: different level of competition for North Texas. I know the 497 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 7: strength of schedule for both these teams is outside the 498 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 7: top one hundred. You can't trust North Texas on defense. 499 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 7: They're just outside the top one hundred and almost every 500 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 7: single category. I mean there are one hundred and twentieth 501 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 7: in defensive finishing drives. If AP State gets close, they 502 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,440 Speaker 7: sniffing anywhere in opponent territory, they're gonna score touchdown. Huge 503 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 7: special teams gap here. Appalachian States twelfth, North Texas one 504 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 7: hundred and ninth. I think you gotta lay the points. 505 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 7: Hopefully you're listening to this is still at twenty one, 506 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 7: a couple points higher than where I've got it, But 507 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 7: I think twenty one is a good number to buy 508 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 7: on a little bit of money. Not anything huge, just 509 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 7: big program difference here, big difference in rankings on offense 510 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 7: and defense between these two, and a little bit of 511 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 7: familiarity for app State playing on this surface. 512 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 1: Full game fever, catch it all right. 513 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 5: We also have Tuesday. I mean, it's just a beautiful 514 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 5: time of the year. 515 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 6: We have Tuesday, Tuesday afternoon bowl game with Tulane against 516 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 6: Nevada in the famous Idaho Potato Bowl at BETAMGM. Tulane 517 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 6: is a two and a half favorite, but it's juice. 518 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:01,880 Speaker 5: Minus one twenty five. 519 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 6: It's my three point favorite over under fifty six and 520 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 6: a half. The question here from a care perspective, I 521 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 6: think too Lane will care and they fought hard all 522 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 6: the way till the end of the year. They weren't 523 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:19,359 Speaker 6: expected to win their conference Nevada surprise year, but they 524 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,440 Speaker 6: could have easily been in the conference championship. 525 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 5: They weren't. 526 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 6: They had that disappointing loss to santas A State last. 527 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 5: Last Friday night. So where are they at mentally? 528 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 6: How do the pack match up with the Green Wave 529 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 6: two unique offenses. Here, you have kind of a Nevada's 530 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 6: air raid. 531 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 5: What do you see here? 532 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 2: I mean, we're recording Sunday night. 533 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 7: I think I'm gonna be playing Nevada before I hit 534 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 7: the sack here tonight. There, I project the game too late, 535 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 7: minus two and a half, not a big edge. There, 536 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 7: I project the total of fifty five and a half. Really, 537 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 7: that's what the market is at. But when you look 538 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 7: at these two teams, you know, you can't say Nevada 539 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 7: is familiar with the surface. 540 00:23:58,560 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 2: At least the players aren't. 541 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,639 Speaker 7: They haven't played the last couple of years, so saying 542 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 7: that they have, you know, experience on the smirkturf isn't 543 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 7: really true. But Nevada, let's just break it down side 544 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 7: by side here. Two lane is a team that runs 545 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 7: sixty two percent of the time. They ranked top thirty 546 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 7: five and rushing success rate and rushing explosiveness. But Nevada 547 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 7: wolf Pack is pretty good at defending that. They are 548 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 7: twentieth in the nation and defending rush explosiveness. That's a 549 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 7: big deal against Tulane. Tulane loves his aired up on 550 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 7: the ground. Nevada's twelfth in the nation and tackling. They 551 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 7: are very solid on defense, and I think that they're 552 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 7: going to be able to handle whatever Tulane throws at 553 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 7: them on the ground. Now, if you go and look 554 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 7: at Nevada's offense with Carson Strong, they pass the ball 555 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 7: sixty one percent of the time. So I'm not even 556 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 7: looking at Nevada's rushing stats. I don't even care. So 557 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 7: when I look at Nevada's passing stats, nothing really huge 558 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 7: breaks out from me for Carson Strong. But what does 559 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 7: open up my eyes is that Tulane is one hundred 560 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 7: and twenty third in the nation in defending pass explosiveness. 561 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 7: So I think the Green waver are gonna have issues 562 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 7: with Carson Strong, especially going deep. There is a huge 563 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 7: mismatch in team tackling here favored and in the side 564 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 7: of Nevada Special teams. Sp plus makes Nevada thirty fifth. 565 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 7: Sp plus makes two Lane one hundred and twenty third. 566 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,120 Speaker 7: Nevada's got it where it counts. I am probably going 567 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 7: to be on Nevada plus three before probably while we're podcasting, 568 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 7: I might slip this bed in here. 569 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 5: I think you get a healthy. 570 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 6: Don Peterson back for Nevada, which should help their defense. Yeah, 571 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 6: the main question for Nevada will be and you saw 572 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 6: this late in the Santa's A State game, which this 573 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,200 Speaker 6: would be my only concern with Nevada here as long 574 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 6: as they care is their offensive line. Their offensive line 575 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:36,120 Speaker 6: has been shaky at times this year and they're going 576 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,360 Speaker 6: against you know. 577 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:38,160 Speaker 5: Sample and company. 578 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 6: There's some NFL potential on this two lane defensive line 579 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 6: and they can get after the quarterback. So how much 580 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 6: havoc can the two lane defensive line create? 581 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 2: Absolutely if Carson Strong. 582 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 7: If Carson Strong is getting rid of the ball under 583 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 7: two seconds after the snap, then it's a different story. 584 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 2: But if he's holding on to that thing, he might 585 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 2: be in trouble. 586 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 5: Yeah. 587 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 6: I mean, Tulane top ten in sacks per game. You 588 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 6: got Patrick Johnson sampled. I think that seven players that 589 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 6: had at least two and a half sacks, So they 590 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 6: can get pressure from a number of different places. 591 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 5: Yeah. 592 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 6: So, And by the way, make sure you check out 593 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 6: the action app actionework dot Com. We're gonna have comprehensive 594 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 6: Bowl previews and content every single day. 595 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 5: Make sure you follow us on the app to see 596 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 5: what we play. 597 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 1: If you hate ball games, go listen to NPR all right. 598 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 6: Moving on to our second bowl game on Tuesday, in 599 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 6: the bulk of our Tone Bowl at UCF, who is 600 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 6: I think technically the road team here at BETAMGMUCF is 601 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 6: a six point underdog six six and a half over 602 00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 6: under seventy and a half. This when the ball matchups 603 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,960 Speaker 6: came out, was one of the most intriguing matchups to 604 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 6: me should be I'm just excited to watch both offenses 605 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 6: go head to head. 606 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 5: What do you see here? 607 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 7: So I was a little bit shocked to see, but 608 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,680 Speaker 7: BYU open up at three and a half, I knew 609 00:26:57,720 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 7: kind of like the over in this game it is 610 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,919 Speaker 7: at seventy one seventy two. I think that's just going 611 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 7: to keep going up. I projected at seventy three. Not 612 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 7: a lot on the defenses here to make me believe 613 00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 7: that either of the offenses are going to be stopped. 614 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,400 Speaker 7: I do power rate the game to be a pickham 615 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 7: flew up to seven. I think that's where it's going 616 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 7: to be by the time everybody's listening on Monday morning. 617 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 7: BYU one hundred and six and strength of schedule, I mean, 618 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,160 Speaker 7: their offense to get anything they want in this game 619 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 7: could potentially be Zach Wilson's last game. Central Florida seventy fourth, 620 00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 7: the higher strength of schedule seventy fourth, but they are 621 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 7: defensively eighty ninth and passing success rate in one hundred 622 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 7: and twelfth against pass explosiven That's not going to get 623 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 7: it done against Sack Wilson. Even Central Florida having a 624 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 7: defensive habit grating thirty fourth should be minimized by BYU 625 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 7: because BYU is one of the most disciplined offenses in 626 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 7: the nation. We know that they are top fifteen and 627 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 7: havoc allowed. They just don't turn the ball over and 628 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 7: they don't let teams get into their backfield. Of course, 629 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:52,240 Speaker 7: you know, strength to schedule, Like I said, it was 630 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 7: important the mech Championship with Buffalo. You know BYU has 631 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 7: not really had a very strong strength of schedule considering 632 00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,399 Speaker 7: the peace schedule they've had to put together. Now, I 633 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 7: think the question is is will Central Florida score. The 634 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 7: Knights are eighth and pass explosiveness with Dylan Gabriel against 635 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 7: BYU's back seven, they're sixty third defending pass explosiveness. So 636 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 7: I think Central Florida is going to be able to 637 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 7: hit the long shot and keep themselves in this game. 638 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 7: That's why I like this at seven over time, it 639 00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 7: doesn't matter. I just think Central Florida is going to 640 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,760 Speaker 7: be able to get themselves back into this BYU doesn't 641 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 7: impose their will in the trench. On defense whatsoever, They're 642 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 7: eighty seventh in defensive havoc, which I was kind of 643 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 7: shocked to see. They're just not really taking the ball 644 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 7: away or or having a lot of pass breakups or 645 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 7: tackling in the backfield. They're seventy first in line yards, 646 00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 7: so for everything about that defensive line, they are just not, 647 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 7: you know, putting it up when in rushing attempts are 648 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 7: one hundred and seventh and stuff rate, so teams are 649 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 7: able to move it on the ground. Central Florida is 650 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 7: first in the nation in tempo. They average nineteen point 651 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 7: three seconds per play, so this is going to be fast, 652 00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 7: blazing fast, and I don't see either teams stopping each other. 653 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 7: There's a huge difference of special teams though. That's where 654 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 7: BAU as an advantage. 655 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 2: They're second in sp plus Central Florida's ninety seven. I 656 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 2: love the over. I could be talked into Central Florida 657 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 2: plus seven. 658 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 7: I think they're gonna be able to get back into 659 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 7: the game at any time, and they're not going to 660 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 7: be dominated in the trench. So we'll see, you know, 661 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 7: do a little bit more research, see who all is 662 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 7: going to be involved in this game, because with Central 663 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 7: Florida it's just been a rotating wheel of who's playing, 664 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,760 Speaker 7: who's not playing, ten ten guys opting out. We got 665 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 7: COVID all up and down the roster. It's been an 666 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 7: interesting season for Josh Haipel and the Knights, and so 667 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 7: I want to verify that, you know, this is a 668 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 7: solid team with Bowl motivation, but that's the side that 669 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 7: I'm looking for. 670 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 5: I don't disagree with either. I think, you know, the 671 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:36,479 Speaker 5: over is starting to get a little out. 672 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 6: I am, but as of where it is now, I 673 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 6: have a slightly in to the over and I like 674 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 6: UCF two. 675 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 5: I think i'd make this around two and a half three. 676 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 6: I got to go do my final Bowl projections, but 677 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 6: it's definitely right around a field goal or maybe a 678 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 6: little below. But I'm not hitting that now because I 679 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 6: really want seven obviously, and please don't, Jake sus you 680 00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 6: said with seven will be okay in overtime. The good 681 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 6: thing is that I don't think that there's not a 682 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 6: lot of risks. I'm gonna just just chix the shit 683 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 6: out of the bowl season. 684 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 2: Now. 685 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 6: There's not a lot of risk of a bowl, a 686 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,800 Speaker 6: random bowl going to triple overtime because why like the 687 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 6: teams would just go for you know, go for two 688 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 6: in the first or second overtime or at the end 689 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 6: of regulation. This is my yearly public service announcement for 690 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 6: bowl games. If you have a team that is a 691 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 6: one and a half point favorite, a two point favorite, right, 692 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:31,440 Speaker 6: sometimes you would just bet them one and a half 693 00:30:31,480 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 6: two point favorites game. A lot of games is gonna 694 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 6: end on three, more so than one or two. But 695 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 6: in ball season it's different. There's more games that are 696 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 6: likely to end on one because at the end of 697 00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 6: a game, and again it means nothing in a bowl 698 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 6: game and boka retne or whatever it is, and you 699 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 6: tie it, who cares you go for two? 700 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 5: You see it all the time. 701 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 6: Instead of laying one and a half or two, take 702 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 6: the money line with a really short favorite. If you're 703 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 6: catching one and a half or two, take those points. 704 00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 6: Don't just play the money line, because there's just more 705 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 6: of a chance that these games could end at one 706 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,280 Speaker 6: because their team's going for two at the end, because 707 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 6: it's like, who cares? This is the famous Potato Bowl, 708 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 6: so keep them on. 709 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 14: The NFL season is upon us, and our friends at 710 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 14: BETMGM Sports are offering Action Network podcast listeners a great 711 00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 14: sign up offer.

They 732 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,880 Speaker 6: did also lose Luca Anthony. They've been using two quarterbacks 733 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 6: most of the year. He had like a horrific injury 734 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 6: in their last game against TCU when they got trucked, 735 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 6: So I don't I don't think he's available. Georgia Southern, 736 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 6: interestingly enough, had you know, Shay Wertz their senior starting 737 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:38,960 Speaker 6: quarterbacks start of the year, and then they had Justin 738 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 6: Tomalin who got hurt last game. And then you had 739 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 6: Miller Moseley come in somehow, I mean he was like 740 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 6: two of thirteen somehow. He threw an eighty r touchdown pass. 741 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 6: I still have not seen a clip for it, but 742 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 6: I needed that to get in the back door. I've 743 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 6: been looking for a clip. I can't find a clip 744 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 6: of Miller Moseley making this star. I still don't know 745 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 6: the quarterbacks can be for Georgia Southern. They also had 746 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 6: an injury to their star linebacker and they start, and 747 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 6: they start, safety's bagged up too, and Duncan I'm writing 748 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 6: up this game, I'm going I've been digging into all 749 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 6: these injuries to find out who's playing who's not. But 750 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 6: I can tell you that at full strength, I made 751 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 6: this line eleven and a half. Now, granted, I am 752 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 6: the lowest person on planet Earth when it comes to 753 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 6: Louisiana Tech. I also have to downgrade Georgia Southern if 754 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 6: it's Miller mostly and I got to figure out how 755 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 6: much to do so. And then there's other injuries, and 756 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 6: then Louisiana Tech's gonna be going with Allen the whole. 757 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 5: Time instead of rotating. 758 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 6: And they used Anthony more than Allen, and he had 759 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 6: a little more success throwing the ball. So there's a 760 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 6: lot to dig into here, but I can tell you 761 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 6: under seven, I almost certainly like Georgia Southern. 762 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 5: And if Georgia Southern's going with this third string quarterback, 763 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 5: just Louisiana. Louisiana texts offense is so broken it's incredible. 764 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 6: I mean, you go back to the games that they've won, 765 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 6: even against North Texas stavage like four yards per play 766 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 6: to just some of these games are absolutely disgusting that 767 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:59,600 Speaker 6: they won. They've scored I think like eighty or ninety 768 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 6: points more than they should have this year if you 769 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 6: just look go by yards and yards per play. They've 770 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 6: had a number of pick sixes they scored on the 771 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 6: final play of the game. I think they're fifteen to 772 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 6: seventeen on fourth downs this year. Just an incredibly lucky team. 773 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 6: Now they are well coached, and I know what Colin's 774 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 6: gonna tell me. Colin's gonna tell me all about Skip Polton. 775 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 6: I think they've won like fifty five Bowls in a row. 776 00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 6: I know they had the nation's longest Bowl winning streak. 777 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 6: But I just hate this team this year. So I'm 778 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,280 Speaker 6: gonna be on Georgia Southern. In some fashion. I played 779 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,840 Speaker 6: some under fifty two. I might buy that back. 780 00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 5: I don't know. 781 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 6: I got to figure out who's playing in this game. 782 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,439 Speaker 6: Keep your eye on the right up. But here comes Colin, 783 00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:39,839 Speaker 6: tell me about I usually Beatly's gonna take every year 784 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:40,399 Speaker 6: in the Bowl too. 785 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 7: So yeah, I mean, I'll ship you over the video 786 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 7: of Miller Mosey. 787 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 2: You know in the game when some of the past 788 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 2: the had. 789 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 7: There is a YouTube out there of the game summary 790 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:51,520 Speaker 7: watching all of Miller Moseley's I mean it's there was 791 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 7: something extremely odd about the Georgia Southern box score that 792 00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 7: bothered me, so I had to go actually watch the 793 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,359 Speaker 7: game to see what was going on. Now you think 794 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 7: of Georgia Southern, you should think slow, triple option, shy Wortz, 795 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 7: not burning clock. Well that's true, they're one hundred and 796 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,400 Speaker 7: twenty seventh and seconds per play. This season, they're averaging 797 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 7: over thirty two seconds per play. But when I looked 798 00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 7: at the box score with Miller Moseley, I just couldn't 799 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 7: believe my eyes that I saw an up tempo offense. 800 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 2: What is this? 801 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 7: Now, he's not very successful. Don't ask Miller Moseley to be, 802 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 7: you know, come out there and be Zach Wilson from BYU. 803 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 7: But Miller Moseley can hit the explosive pass, he can 804 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,240 Speaker 7: hit the slants, he can hit the sidelines. He made 805 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 7: some very impressive long passes. But I think the thing 806 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,360 Speaker 7: that's most important is when Miller Moseley came to the 807 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:44,080 Speaker 7: game for Georgia Southern, twenty five seconds per play in 808 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 7: the game they increase their seconds per play by seven. 809 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 7: This game for me was an over forty nine and 810 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 7: a half when it hit the board. I think fifty 811 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 7: and a half is where most of the books are 812 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 7: right now. To me, this is an over all the way. 813 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 7: If Miller Moseley is the quarterback, there's going to be 814 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 7: explosive shots taken on both sides. But Georgia Southern is 815 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 7: going to score a ton more points. And look what 816 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,879 Speaker 7: look at that final score against app State. I mean 817 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,320 Speaker 7: that things sailed over the total, you know, the projections 818 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 7: at six. But that's a Shywartz line. This is a 819 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 7: completely different Georgia Southern offense. If Shywartz is not there 820 00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 7: running the triple. You know, if Shywartz is there, if 821 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 7: he is healthy, which everything I've read says that he's 822 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:21,399 Speaker 7: probably not gonna be able to play in this bowl game, 823 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,399 Speaker 7: you know, but if he is there, their top twenty 824 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,360 Speaker 7: five in line yards, their top twenty five and stuff 825 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 7: rate and LATA can't defend any of that stuff on 826 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 7: the ground. But when you look at you know, Miller 827 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:32,720 Speaker 7: Moseley at quarterback and they're going to be taking shots 828 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 7: down the field. The kid is not successful right, his 829 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,480 Speaker 7: success rate's going to be terrible. I think he only 830 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 7: completed a handful of passes, but they were deep and 831 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 7: they weren't flukes. So I think it's going to be 832 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 7: more downfield passing. There's big advantages in tackling here. Georgia 833 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 7: Southern twenty ninth graded in PFF tackling. Louisiana tack is 834 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,919 Speaker 7: ninety ninth. But you know, I can't get over how 835 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,400 Speaker 7: fast of an offense Georgia Southern was when they decided 836 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 7: to go to Miller Moseley, who was not run the 837 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,759 Speaker 7: triple and was taking shots fifteen to twenty yards down 838 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 7: the field. 839 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:05,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, but it wasn't because they were down. That's the 840 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:06,760 Speaker 5: question that we have to answered. 841 00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 7: No, he was doing that. I didn't, No, he was. 842 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 7: He was the second he came in. It was it 843 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 7: was tired that the kids got an arm. He can 844 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 7: throw it. 845 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 5: Well, he can throw it. I don't know. 846 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 6: Well I've already put under fifty two, and just because 847 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 6: of my projection, but now, oh, God of scared. But 848 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 6: I said, I buy it back. I hit fifty two 849 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 6: and I was like, this thing's gonna come down. But yeah, 850 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 6: Georgia Southern, there's a lot to get through. I'm gonna 851 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 6: to write up on it. 852 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:30,520 Speaker 5: I just hate LA Tech. 853 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 6: Yeah, and you can you tell me anything good about 854 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 6: this Louisiana Tech team. 855 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 2: Twenty fifth in offensive finishing drives. Does that help? I mean, 856 00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 2: Georgia Southern is. 857 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,839 Speaker 5: Twenty I got garbage too, Ye against garbage. 858 00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:45,680 Speaker 7: The defense's top forty against pass explosiveness, that's it. Everything 859 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 7: else is outside the top ninety. And they have a 860 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 7: they're outside the top one hundred strength to schedule. I mean, 861 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:51,839 Speaker 7: it's it's not good. It's not a good year for Skipples. 862 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,439 Speaker 6: It's like they honestly could have had one win over 863 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,840 Speaker 6: an FCS team. If you look at their other wins 864 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 6: against really bad teams, they're usually by like one two 865 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:03,879 Speaker 6: on like the last play of the game on fourth down, 866 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 6: like crazy. Yeah, the two hundred and ten yards and 867 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 6: three yards per play against UTEP. This team has been 868 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 6: so fluky and lucky all year. I think they've won 869 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 6: multiple games this year averaging three yards per play three 870 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,720 Speaker 6: point nine yards for play against North Texas. 871 00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 5: That's possible to do. 872 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 6: It's an ugly offense, and now their best quarterback is out. 873 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,400 Speaker 6: I mean, all right, enough, La Tech slander anybody that 874 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 6: listens to this podcast down in Rustin. I've done enough 875 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 6: slandering of your bulldogs. 876 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 5: If you don't bet on the bowl, the bowl even exist. 877 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:43,800 Speaker 5: Let's move on to another bowl. 878 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,800 Speaker 6: On Wednesday, Memphis out of gyms at eight and a 879 00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 6: half point favorite against Florida Atlantic over under fifty two 880 00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:51,440 Speaker 6: and a half at bet MGM. 881 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 5: I'm looking under here. 882 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 6: Florida Atlantic's been one of my favorite under teams this year. 883 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 6: Although I got yell at the voicemail for one I 884 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 6: didn't like the other week, the fire Lanks defense has 885 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,800 Speaker 6: been really good. We talked about Jim Levitt, the coordinator. 886 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 6: They're one of the best in the business. I mean, 887 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 6: this is a guy that was the highest court one 888 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 6: of the highest PI coidators in college football, and then 889 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,680 Speaker 6: he just didn't get along with Crystal Ball at Oregon 890 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 6: and now he finds himself at FAU and he's done 891 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 6: a tremendous job with that defense. Was a little puzzling 892 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,240 Speaker 6: that they gave up forty five points to Southern Miss 893 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 6: last week, But if you look at Memphis and the 894 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 6: FAU offense isn't great in general. If you look at Memphis, 895 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 6: they've lost just so many weapons, like their two best 896 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 6: weapons on an offense have opted out one before the season, 897 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:42,399 Speaker 6: one during the season, and the offense is kind of, yeah, 898 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 6: gone to the tank since uh, you know, this is 899 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 6: a team that scored ten points at Navy, they scored 900 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 6: twenty one points at Tulane and they barely just got 901 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 6: to and they got to thirty against Houston. This is 902 00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 6: a team that usually against those teams would be in 903 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 6: high thirties, low forties. So the offense is just not 904 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 6: the same Memphis offense that we've seen a lot of 905 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,800 Speaker 6: that due to opt outs. Still Brady White there at quarterback, 906 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 6: but I actually might look under here thoughts. 907 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, I actually wrote that all up in my notes, 908 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,280 Speaker 7: and I agree with you completely. You know, I project 909 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:21,799 Speaker 7: the games nine manus eleven, not too far off of 910 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,719 Speaker 7: the minus nine, and I projected, you know, total of 911 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 7: fifty two, which is pretty close to the market. Memphis 912 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 7: games have gone under three of the last four. I'm 913 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,520 Speaker 7: not sure if you count that Oullier against Steven f. 914 00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 7: Austin where they scored you know, fifty six points. I 915 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,919 Speaker 7: don't think that really counts. So they've been an under 916 00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 7: team for the last half here of the season, and 917 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 7: Florida Lantic was an under team until they allowed forty 918 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 7: five points to Southern Miss. And if you look a 919 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 7: little bit deeper into that Southern Miss game and ask 920 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 7: what the hell happened there? Three hundred yards on the ground, 921 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 7: I mean they just gave up gashing numbers on the ground. 922 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,879 Speaker 7: And you know at the Southern Miss that came out 923 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 7: of nowhere on their on their second interim coach. But 924 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 7: I'm not sure Memphis has the ability to do that. 925 00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 7: The four of the last five games, not including Steven f. 926 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:08,640 Speaker 7: Austin Here's Memphis is total rushing yards sixty four forty 927 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 7: five ninety eight and a grand total of five yards 928 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 7: against Cincinnati's defense. They haven't clipped one hundred in a 929 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 7: long time. They are not a rush team first team. 930 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 7: They are not an explosive rushing team. I think this 931 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:25,759 Speaker 7: is an under here all the way. Florida's seventeenth and 932 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 7: defending pass explosiveness, So Brady White wants to go to 933 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 7: the air. FAU should be able to take care of that, 934 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,399 Speaker 7: you know, And Florida Atlantic is you know, their fourth 935 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 7: and defensive finishing drives. They play their best football on 936 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,200 Speaker 7: defense when their backs are up against the against the 937 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 7: goal line, so to me, this is an under all 938 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 7: the way. 939 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 5: Really agree with you? 940 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 6: All right, good stuff, Dan, Like I said, stay tuned 941 00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 6: on our Twitter Action Network dot Com actionework out. We'll 942 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 6: have comprehensive well every bowl will be covered. Hopefully we 943 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 6: can what do we have like that? A twenty eight 944 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 6: twenty five. Hopefully we can get at least twenty by 945 00:41:57,640 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 6: it's all said and done, so hopefully we can have 946 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 6: a good ball season. 947 00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 7: And thank you producer Matt Mitchell for throwing in the 948 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 7: Gus Johnson Oklahoma overtime call every time we mentioned the 949 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:20,240 Speaker 7: Big twelve, right yeah. 950 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,280 Speaker 1: Unbelievable college football. 951 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 6: Fuck sports the Big twelve. 952 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,399 Speaker 5: Before we get out of here Monday Night football. 953 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 6: I did it right up for this game, so if 954 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 6: you want to check it out on the app at BETMGM. 955 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,160 Speaker 6: Right now, the Steelers are fourteen and a half point 956 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 6: favorites at the Bengals over under thirty nine and a half. 957 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 5: So how I played this game. I like. The problem 958 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 5: is it's over fourteen now, so I don't like the 959 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 5: Steelers anymore. 960 00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 6: I like the Steelers. Maybe this line goes down anything 961 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 6: under fourteen. I kind of like the under if you 962 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,759 Speaker 6: can get forty or above. But the way to play this, 963 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 6: in my opinion, is to go Bengals team total under 964 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,719 Speaker 6: which as of right now I played under thirteen and 965 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:53,240 Speaker 6: a half. 966 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 5: It's thirteen now you can get which I still like. Obviously, 967 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:58,800 Speaker 5: if you can find a thirteen and a half, it's gonna. 968 00:42:58,560 --> 00:42:59,960 Speaker 6: Be tough right else, as this line is going up, 969 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 6: the totals coming down, that's important. It's really hard for 970 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 6: me to see this Bengals team scoring at all. I 971 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:10,320 Speaker 6: mean since Brandon Allen, who wasn't even practicing, became the quarterback. 972 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 6: Over the past three games, this Cincinnati offense has done 973 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 6: absolutely nothing nothing. They're averaging three point nine yards per play. 974 00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 6: That's like La Tech. This is a La Tech offense 975 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,280 Speaker 6: in the NFL. Sorry Russell, I told joeuldn't slander anymore. 976 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 6: But their offenses is anything. They basically have had one 977 00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 6: explosive play in three games. I think they had like 978 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,239 Speaker 6: a one to twenty one yard completion last week, but 979 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 6: they had like a five yard hitch pass to Tyler 980 00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 6: Boyd that he took to the house. 981 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 5: That's it. Can't do anything on offense. 982 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 6: There's no explosive this and now they're playing against arguably 983 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:44,720 Speaker 6: the best defense in the NFL. 984 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:46,759 Speaker 5: I don't know. I mean, this is a team that 985 00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,320 Speaker 5: just got the Bengals, can do anyth against the Cowboys. 986 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 6: I mean it's bad. This offense is a bad shape. 987 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:55,280 Speaker 6: We know the defense isn't very good. The Steelers' offense 988 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 6: is kind of broken right now. They can't run the ball. 989 00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:01,359 Speaker 6: Their offensive line is not playing that well. So it's 990 00:44:01,400 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 6: just and there's no explosive in this downfield. It's a 991 00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 6: short passing attack, which makes it very difficult to sustain 992 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,399 Speaker 6: drives consistently. Why we've seen the Steelers drop their last 993 00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 6: two games. By the way, this is the seventh I 994 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 6: believe the seventh backup quarterback the Steelers will face in 995 00:44:15,640 --> 00:44:18,840 Speaker 6: their first fourteen games. But that this short passing attack 996 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,200 Speaker 6: should work here against Cynthia did the other week even 997 00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:21,839 Speaker 6: with Borrow playing. 998 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 5: I think the other week they won thirty five to thirteen. 999 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 6: Since he hasn't gotten past thirteen against the Steelers the 1000 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,799 Speaker 6: past four times as they've played. And I know this 1001 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 6: is a nightmare tomlin spot. I've preached about this all 1002 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 6: the time on the road against teams that are sub 1003 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:37,400 Speaker 6: five hundred. 1004 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 5: His teams come out flat all the time. He is 1005 00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 5: the least profitable coach in the Situation Interaction Labs database. 1006 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 6: He's like thirty five percent against the spread on the 1007 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:49,919 Speaker 6: road as a favorite against sub five hundred teams. He's 1008 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 6: a Rale Rock coach US against the world. Will you up, 1009 00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:55,279 Speaker 6: We'll get you motivated in these spots. Generally speaking, his 1010 00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,480 Speaker 6: teams come out flat a lot. But I don't think 1011 00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 6: that's the case here. You know, they can lock up 1012 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,799 Speaker 6: the division. They're off two straight losses. I don't think 1013 00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:05,080 Speaker 6: that motivation is going to be a factor. And the 1014 00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:07,040 Speaker 6: Bengals are just that bad right now. It's sort of 1015 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 6: like the Jags with Jake Lowton when the Steelers went 1016 00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:11,320 Speaker 6: down there and they covered as a double digit favorite 1017 00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:13,680 Speaker 6: in a similar spot, and that they weren't even coming 1018 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:15,480 Speaker 6: off two straight losses. So I think tom One actually 1019 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 6: will have them fired up here. I just don't see 1020 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 6: how the Bengals can score here. So I went Bengals 1021 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:23,759 Speaker 6: team total under. I lean the Steelers. If you can 1022 00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 6: get under fourteen, looks like that's gone out to the line, 1023 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 6: and I make this close to the fifteen, which is crazy. 1024 00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,400 Speaker 6: I just don't it's gonna be really without flukes or 1025 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 6: special teams. The Bengals do good special teams without turnover 1026 00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,799 Speaker 6: flukes or you know, kick return for a touchdown. I 1027 00:45:39,800 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 6: don't see this team getting the two touchdowns, so I 1028 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:44,439 Speaker 6: went with the Bengals team total under this one could 1029 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:44,839 Speaker 6: be ugly. 1030 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's echo that. I mean, I'm completely behind that. 1031 00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 7: If you look at this Cincinnati and Pittsburgh team, both 1032 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,760 Speaker 7: teams have gone under the total their last four games 1033 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,960 Speaker 7: in a row. Stock talks about this spot for Tomlin 1034 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 7: here they do have the Colts coming up. I mean, 1035 00:45:57,960 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 7: I know this is a division game, and I know 1036 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 7: there's a lot going on the division for this specific game, 1037 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 7: but that game against Indianapolis next week is pretty big 1038 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 7: in the playoff pitcher too. So you know, if you 1039 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:11,200 Speaker 7: look at Cincinnati and what they've done offensively, they've scored 1040 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,000 Speaker 7: let me go ahead and count here their last five 1041 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:16,600 Speaker 7: games seven, seven, seventeen, nine, and ten. The game they 1042 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 7: scored seventeen against the Giants, they had a total of 1043 00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:20,800 Speaker 7: one hundred and fifty five offensive yard. 1044 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:22,840 Speaker 5: H kick or turn to touchdown that game right. 1045 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 7: Right, So not even offensive points there they got over 1046 00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 7: the thirteen that stuck is talking about so I completely 1047 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 7: echo the Cincinnati under the team total number here. I 1048 00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 7: don't know if I could ever sit around and take 1049 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:38,719 Speaker 7: Cincinnati plus fourteen. The safer play is, you know, because 1050 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 7: you know you don't want to factor in the Tomlin perspective, 1051 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 7: you know, the flat spot, the Indianapolis, whatever spot. It 1052 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 7: doesn't matter. Cincinnati's gonna have a hard time sport points here. 1053 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 7: Completely agree with Stucky based on the performance of Cincinnati 1054 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:50,760 Speaker 7: the last five games. 1055 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:52,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, and if you're in the trend's top, I mean 1056 00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:54,480 Speaker 6: the Steiers. I don't have owned the Bengals. I think 1057 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 6: they've won like fifteen in a. 1058 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:58,759 Speaker 7: Row, one of the last seven, one of the last 1059 00:46:58,760 --> 00:46:59,880 Speaker 7: seven against Pittsburgh. 1060 00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1061 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 6: I think the last time since he beat it was 1062 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:05,160 Speaker 6: in twenty fifteen, maybe, Yeah, series one eleven straight against 1063 00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,360 Speaker 6: the Bengals. Tom has been dominant against the spread on them. 1064 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 6: And Tomlin's also great against the spread after a loss. 1065 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 6: So if you're into trends, yes, there's a Tomlin flat 1066 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,240 Speaker 6: spot here, but that's generally after they've won a game 1067 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:18,719 Speaker 6: and they're going on the road and they're playing a 1068 00:47:18,840 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 6: bad team and they come off flat. 1069 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 5: They've lost too straight here, So I think Tom and 1070 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:23,919 Speaker 5: will have them focused. They'll be ready. And like you said, 1071 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:24,920 Speaker 5: this just comes down to I. 1072 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:28,480 Speaker 6: Don't see how since he scores or moves the ball. 1073 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,719 Speaker 6: Uh so it's pit or nothing. But I think the 1074 00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 6: Sincy team total unders the way to go. Hopefully I 1075 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 6: don't get a fluke and then you were having the 1076 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:40,080 Speaker 6: sweat like a late garbage time touchdown late in the game, 1077 00:47:40,280 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 6: which would suck. 1078 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,799 Speaker 5: But I think that there's that's the way to go 1079 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:44,760 Speaker 5: on Monday night football. 1080 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:46,320 Speaker 6: All right, that'll do it for us. It's time to 1081 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 6: go dig into bowls. The college will wall play off. 1082 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,600 Speaker 6: We're gonna be back with many more bowl previews.
