There are no good teams, 32 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 4: I you know, I tell myself right now, we're not 33 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 4: going to find anything out through the rest of February. 34 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 4: But you'll watch like Houston will go on a run now, 35 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 4: or UCI will go on a run, and we'll be like, oh, 36 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 4: are they the best team in college basketball? But I 37 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 4: think we just got to stow it away in the 38 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 4: back of our heads that again, this is one of 39 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 4: the most chaotic college basketball years in a long time, 40 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 4: and hopefully that at bears itself come March. 41 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, I think you guys are a little too anxious. 42 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 2: It's only February six, so we have a lot of 43 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 2: content and winners to find between now and the start 44 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 2: of the madness. Let's today, We're gonna just we're gonna 45 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 2: cover the weekend that was. We'll talk a little Duke Miami, 46 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,519 Speaker 2: maybe cover some Kansas, Texas. We'll give out some winners 47 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 2: for tonight's card, and we'll get a little random. There 48 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 2: be a quick episode. I'm up, I'm personal up in 49 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 2: Philadelphia visit my mom for her seventieth birthday, Happy birthday, 50 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 2: so it might be a quicker episode. I'm recording from 51 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,959 Speaker 2: a closet, So if I sound like I'm not at 52 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 2: my normal studio, that that is why. All right, let's 53 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 2: get into Let's start with the rant of the week, 54 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: because it seemed like you were itching to get to 55 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 2: that uh and over. I know nothing. There is nothing 56 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,320 Speaker 2: worse than an overtime loser. And I don't know if 57 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 2: you're gonna go Gonzaga, because you know, we talked. I 58 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 2: talked about the Get Big Bets on Campus Live, and 59 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 2: I said, we talked about it on the podcast too, 60 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: and I said I wanted Saint Mary's Live, which worked 61 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: out for me, but I felt so bad for anyone 62 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: that had an under organ zag in that game of 63 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 2: card for the entire game. But I'll stop if that 64 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 2: I don't want to ruin your rent. Is that the rant. 65 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I had under, you know, to. 66 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 3: Essentially stick to my guns and to not be moved 67 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: off of my position by the fact that I mean 68 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 3: it opened it like one forty one, and I think 69 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 3: by tip off it was one thirty seven. I was like, 70 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 3: I'm still going under for a game involving. 71 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: The Zags to be at I think it was one 72 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: twenty two at the end of regulation. 73 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: I should get something for that. 74 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 2: The fact that you can go under by fifteen points 75 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: in it and it was just a dead under game 76 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 2: the entire game exactly, and then on top of everything else, 77 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: then it's an electric factory in overtime, just people scoring 78 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: left and right, foul shots, just everything was going in 79 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 2: Over's favor. So it was kind of drawn dead even 80 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: with like ninety seconds left. 81 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: So yeah, just very frustrating. 82 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 3: It doesn't seem not that gambling is ever fair, But 83 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: I think we've discussed this before. I would be happy 84 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 3: to pay some kind of overtime insurance anytime that I'm 85 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 3: playing what I would consider to be a low total 86 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,000 Speaker 3: on the under. So sportsbooks, you know all these stupid 87 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 3: promos they throw out there where it's like, you know, 88 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 3: if you and your friends ten thousands of your friends 89 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 3: bet will move the line by a point, like they 90 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 3: do that for the NFL all the time. Like, give 91 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 3: me something to save me from myself in these overtime situations, 92 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 3: because this won't be the last time this season in 93 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 3: college basketball I get burned. 94 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, overtime insurance is always, Uh, that's something that I've 95 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 2: always talked about, But why not just you know, it's 96 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 2: just been the norm forever. But how about just regulation lines. 97 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 2: There's gonna be a book that eventually does that, right, 98 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:54,039 Speaker 2: and it's it's not like you have to you know, 99 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: your like for a spread to like if I have 100 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 2: a four and a half one underdog, like in that 101 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 2: game too, people that beck Anzaga plus four and a 102 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 2: half talk about deserving the cover they led them was 103 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 2: the entire game. You know, the spread wouldn't change. It 104 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 2: was just regulation only. There's gonna be a book that 105 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 2: eventually gives out spreads and totals that are regulation only, 106 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 2: like they do for hockey. But yeah, we're overtime insurance, 107 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 2: which which you would think because people psychologically would pay 108 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 2: for it. You know, you go to a casino and 109 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 2: you see it, and then it would also work for 110 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 2: the book like it works for both sides, Like people 111 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 2: would be willing to pay a little bit more and 112 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 2: then the book can increase their margins a little while. 113 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 2: So I don't get why they don't do it, But yeah, 114 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 2: that was a rough one. Also, Aiden Mahaney is going 115 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 2: to be a stud. The fact that I'm really concerned 116 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 2: about Gonzaga because the fact that they couldn't win that game. 117 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 2: I mean, Saint Mary's couldn't Logan Johnson. I thought he 118 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: was shaving At one point. I was like, what is 119 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 2: this guy doing? He he couldn't see the rim and 120 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 2: then he fouls out. Mahane was like one of ten. 121 00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 2: The fact that you know, he's a Freshen, highly touted kid, 122 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 2: like from right there and decided to go to Saint 123 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: Mary's over a number of other big schools and potential. 124 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 2: I think he's going to be a pro, but he 125 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 2: the fact that he's so young, so inexperienced in a 126 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: huge game, first time playing Gonzaga and he was having 127 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 2: an awful night, And the fact that he still was 128 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 2: able to get it together and take over. You don't 129 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: see that a lot from Refreshmen. But yeah, Gonzaga has issues. 130 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 2: I also I still I am a little worried now 131 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 2: about the Saint Mary's offense as far as like making 132 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 2: it deep roun you see these droughts, there's sort of 133 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 2: reminiscent of Tennessee, who, by the way, needed ref help. 134 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 2: But if they're going after Auburn went two of twenty 135 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 2: seven from three, Oh my god, that Tennessee offense is 136 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 2: a horror show. But I'll save my rant and what 137 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 2: I learned for a bit bejamly goody, you got anything 138 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 2: you want to rant about? Yeah? 139 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 4: You know it's funny now nowadays when I have, you know, 140 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 4: a child that's under one years old, I don't have 141 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 4: a lot of like free time to sit down, you know, 142 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 4: with myself and work or whatever. You know, it's always 143 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 4: just life's very chaotic, and that's just you know, that's 144 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 4: just life with a small child. But you know, usually 145 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 4: that time for me is Sunday morning. You know, my wife, 146 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 4: my son are sleeping. And I was thinking through I'm like, 147 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 4: do I really have a rant or anything to rant about? 148 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 4: Like I had no case Saturday. Like there were some 149 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 4: times where I got unlucky, but there are times I 150 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 4: got really lucky. So I was like, I don't know, 151 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 4: if I really have a rant. And then I had 152 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 4: the Ohio State Michigan under Oh my God, and I'm 153 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 4: gonna tell it. I'm gonna say this, like it's not 154 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 4: the worst beat ever, because like that game was going 155 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 4: over for pretty much the majority of it, and they 156 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 4: just kind of stopped scoring down the end. But Michigan 157 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 4: tripling the ball out and they just start dancing at 158 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 4: mid court and get called for a travel and then 159 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 4: Ohio State goes down, misses a three pointer and he 160 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 4: gets a put back and the game goes over. I'll 161 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 4: say this, I don't know if you guys have ever 162 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 4: seen it. I have never seen anything like that before. 163 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 4: So that was just a good reminder of the dispatting 164 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 4: college basketball. Just these things happened. I also had Twulane Memphis, 165 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 4: which went under in regulation, but again lost in overtime. 166 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: So yeah, I stuck. I just you're encyclopedic on this. 167 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,239 Speaker 1: Do you remember? 168 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 3: I believe it was a college basketball game where one 169 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 3: team was up. 170 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 2: By three or four. 171 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: They're on defense, the other team throws a full court pass. 172 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 3: They intercept it, and the guy grabs it and then 173 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 3: puts his hand up in the air and starts walking 174 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,439 Speaker 3: off the court and they call traveling. 175 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 1: Do you remember that one, because that's the only thing that. 176 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 2: Comes close for me in terms of the Michigana. I don't, yes, 177 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: I do remember that here, I don't remember. I don't 178 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 2: remember someone traveling dribbling the dribbling the clock. 179 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 5: Out, like I remember Kansas mon myth shot the Monmouth 180 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 5: recovering for me this weekend and Pappus, I forget, who 181 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 5: would remember he like he stripped the kid. 182 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 2: They were around fifty and he stripped the Kansas kid 183 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,440 Speaker 2: but it didn't impact the spread, and then he dunked 184 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 2: it and then like was talking ship. I've seen a 185 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: couple of those, like someone strips someone trying to run 186 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 2: the clock out, and it's like, what are you doing? 187 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 2: Don't be an asshole? But yeah, to call to number 188 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 2: one to travel and then number one to call it 189 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: like was insane, and then you knew I was watching it. 190 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 2: And then because Michigan stopped foiling, and then it's just 191 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 2: two Michigan. I mean, I say, stop, found two Michian 192 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:37,080 Speaker 2: guys just standing near half court, and yeah, they just 193 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 2: decided to start celebrating and dancing, and then the ref 194 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 2: calls traveling and then you knew that stays gonna score 195 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: and then they missed the three, get a meaningless offensive 196 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 2: rebound and put back. So yeah, I mean, I don't 197 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 2: came about the pace of the gay. That is brutal 198 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 2: because once that once you're out at the top near 199 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: mid court dribbling it out. Yeah, where you have loser 200 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 2: or winner, you're you're counting your money or subtracting your 201 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: money from your account like that is an insane way 202 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 2: to lose. So yeah, a well well deserved rant for 203 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 2: my rant. I'm gonna go, don't. I had a really 204 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 2: good weekend, so I can't complain too much, but I'm 205 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 2: gonna go with UNC hit an open shot. I mean, 206 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 2: they don't score the final three minutes of the game 207 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 2: against Duke. I felt slighted in that game, and yeah, 208 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: there's something like it's just just one open shot. They 209 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 2: were getting wide open looks. And the fact that UNC 210 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 2: lost that game when Leaky Black scores like fifteen points 211 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: and hits some threes, it's very troubling. I don't know 212 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 2: what is wrong with that UNC team. There's something just missing, 213 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: And I thought this was an opportunity for them to 214 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 2: turn it on and maybe Brady Mannick was that important. 215 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 2: And I don't know, they have no bench. Baycot seems 216 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 2: a little off. Their guards are still a erratic. So 217 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 2: I was disappointed in that. I thought you and see 218 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 2: once you know they there was gonna be the onsought 219 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 2: of Duke in the beginning of that game, and then 220 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 2: they kind of weather the storm and then just at 221 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 2: the end of the game couldn't make an open shot. 222 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 2: And I mean, Derek Lively had a hell of a 223 00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 2: game as far as rim protection was concerned, But yeah, 224 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 2: you n c to me. I'm way more concerned. And 225 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 2: I know, look, they miss some open shots, but just 226 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 2: I keep watching them, and it's like, all right, when 227 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: are we gonna see who this team did the potential 228 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 2: that we thought this team was going to tap into, 229 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 2: and they still haven't and it's getting late here. It's 230 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 2: getting late early, as they like to say. So yeah, 231 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 2: I was really disappointed you and see, I have to 232 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 2: watch that entire game that they couldn't just make a 233 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 2: shot or at least stay in the number at the 234 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 2: end of that game. But let's get to something that 235 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,559 Speaker 2: we learned from the week the weekend, Mike will throw 236 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 2: to you any key takeaways from any game or just overall. 237 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 3: Another thing that BJ and I were talking about that 238 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 3: I was on Bama. I think it was like in 239 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 3: ten and a half, so I lost by the hook 240 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 3: against LSU. 241 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 2: Oh that was that was a similar weird like Bama 242 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: looked like they had the cover locked up and then 243 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 2: LSU gets the ball and comes down and knocks down 244 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 2: a three. Brutal. 245 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 3: It was tough too, because you would think, with how 246 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 3: well Alabama shot from three in that game, that would 247 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: have been closer to their first meeting with LSU when 248 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 3: they both raced them by forty. The issue was that 249 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 3: they had a ten or eleven possession streak where they 250 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: didn't score, And it's one of my it's nitpicking, but 251 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 3: I think it's fair because Alabama has a chance to 252 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 3: be on the one line. So at this point it's 253 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 3: a team that you want to take seriously to win 254 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 3: the national title. I have concerns about any of their 255 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 3: offense outside of shooting threes, because they just kept driving 256 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 3: to the hoop and getting rejected. So they're essentially they're 257 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:52,959 Speaker 3: the anti UCLA. There's no mid range game whatsoever. 258 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 2: They have no. 259 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 3: Interest in finding ways to get people open inside the 260 00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:59,320 Speaker 3: three point arc So that was just a little something 261 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 3: I learned about Bama that concerns me because I would 262 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 3: think when they're making twelve fifteen threes that they should 263 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 3: be crushing just about anybody, particularly on the defensive end. 264 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: They have so much athleticism. Clowney has been great, so 265 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:14,719 Speaker 1: there's a lot to like for them. 266 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 2: But in general, I think. 267 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 3: There's so much heat heap towards Purdue, you know, for 268 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 3: being fraudulent. Now that Kansas is in this backside, there's 269 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 3: a lot of holes being poked in top ten resumes. 270 00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 3: But I still have a little bit of concerns about 271 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 3: Alabama and how they're going to translate to trying to 272 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 3: potentially win some grinder games, some half court games in 273 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 3: March madness when they need to be able to run 274 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 3: some offense and rely on getting hoops other than you know, 275 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 3: open threes. So that was just I wouldn't say it 276 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 3: was a full learning lesson, but it still has me 277 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 3: a little bit concerning Currently out on the market, they're 278 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 3: ten to eleven to one. I think that's a pass 279 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 3: for me just based on the brand of basketball that's 280 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 3: still a little bit Boomer busts for my taste. 281 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think I would buy anybody this year 282 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 2: that's near ten to one BJ. What do you got 283 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 2: from the week that was. 284 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 4: My big takeaway is that I don't really have a takeaway. 285 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 4: And what I mean by that is, you know, with 286 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 4: Purdue and Virginia both going down, you know, like you 287 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 4: both mentioned on the podcast, like that Indiana spot was 288 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 4: one of the best spots of the entire season. And 289 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 4: it was funny because I was out with my family 290 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 4: on Saturday and they were like, can you believe that 291 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:24,000 Speaker 4: Purdue went down to Indiana? And in my mind, I'm like, yeah, 292 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 4: we've been talking about how they've been fraudulent for such 293 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 4: a long time and they finally got caught. But and 294 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 4: then you know, obviously Virginia going down to Virginia Tech, 295 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 4: which is obviously a very good Virginia Tech spot, and 296 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 4: I think it kind of highlights a bigger picture with 297 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 4: betting college basketball, and it's something you know, have you 298 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 4: mentioned stuff how You're like, I could just keep fading 299 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 4: Purdue and I can't beat them. Eventually, regression catches up 300 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 4: with these teams and fading them does work, And you know, 301 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 4: it's not saying like if you're betting college basketball, and 302 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 4: like you don't like Purdue or whatever, you're just gonna 303 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 4: blindly fade them every single time. You obviously have to 304 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 4: pick your spots, find the right right opportunity to fade them. 305 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 4: And that's what you can do going down the stretch 306 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 4: here at the college bast So you know, for everybody 307 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 4: out there is maybe betting for the first time and 308 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 4: is like, man, I keep fading like X team and 309 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 4: I just cannot beat them, like they're just like my 310 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 4: bogey team or whatever. Like eventually you can find a 311 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 4: good spot to fade them where regression will catch up 312 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 4: if you use all the you know, advanced analytics and 313 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 4: everything like that. So my big takeaway is like, yeah, 314 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 4: you know, we saw Indiana kind of taking down Purdue. 315 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 4: You know you obviously stuck in you called Virginia Tech 316 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 4: going down, Toga beating Virginia. So you know, as we 317 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 4: go forward, those spots are gonna come up more and 318 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 4: more as we get throughout February with so many fraudulent 319 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 4: teams throughout the college basketball and I think it's just 320 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 4: it is just a good lesson for people out there 321 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 4: that teams regression will eventually hit for some of these teams. 322 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, you want to, you gotta be careful just falling, 323 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 2: you know, falling in hate. I call it with a 324 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: team where if a team is owned, like it's owning you, like, 325 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 2: don't just keep throwing dead money at it. You have 326 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 2: to be smart about it if you just have to 327 00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 2: walk away from a team, But you can't get too 328 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: frustrated by it. Like a lot of times, the most 329 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 2: success I have fading teams is when people are telling me, like, 330 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 2: you're an idiot, why do we keep fading this team? 331 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: And usually when that happens, like over the next month, 332 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 2: that team doesn't cover, they cover like a ten percent rate. 333 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 2: They're probably at the peak of their market value. You 334 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: can't get too up or down on what you're doing. 335 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 2: Like Oklahoma State college football comes to mind this year. 336 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 2: There's just every single season there's a team where early 337 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 2: on I'm fading and then I think that this team's overvalued. 338 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 2: You can, like you could look at Tennessee right, Tennessee 339 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 2: getting pretty lucky, and I think that this team's all rallied. 340 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 2: They cover a couple of games, don't can make a shot. 341 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 2: I'm gonna stick to my guns here. I'm gonna keep 342 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 2: fading them. And if you do think a team is 343 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 2: overraded generally in the market, then you probably want to 344 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 2: fade them a lot. So yeah, it's a fine line. 345 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 2: And that's one of the toughest things about betting college 346 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 2: basketball and about the grind of it all is just 347 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 2: picking those spots and then deciding, Okay, do I really 348 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 2: have the conviction to keep fading this team even though 349 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 2: they keep screwing me? Or am I just wrong here? 350 00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 5: Right? 351 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 2: I gotta step back and really look into this. So 352 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 2: my key takeaway. And by the way, we didn't even 353 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 2: talk about the Pepperdine Portland yeah finish, yeah, right, there's 354 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:22,199 Speaker 2: point six seconds left. Portland led by one, and was 355 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 2: they got a flagrant foul on a free throw rebound 356 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 2: and then there was like a technical Both team's got 357 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: two free throws, both hit one of two, and Pepperdine 358 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 2: got one more possession from the flagrant because Portland got 359 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 2: the flagrants of Pepperdine got the inbound the ball at 360 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 2: point six seconds left, down one, and they had an 361 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 2: inbound pass like under the basket and scored. Now the 362 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:47,479 Speaker 2: thread closed at one and a half with there, if 363 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 2: you had money line or that was one of the 364 00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:53,280 Speaker 2: most bizarre endings I've ever seen. As a reminder before 365 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,119 Speaker 2: we go any further, college basketball season is in full swing, 366 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 2: so get in on the action with the King of Sportsbooks. 367 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,919 Speaker 2: Sign up with at MGM using bonus code action and 368 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 2: receive first bet insurance up to one thousand dollars.

In New York, my key takeaway from the 395 00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 2: week is I'm and this is going to lead right 396 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 2: into the game. One of the games we might talk 397 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 2: about tonight is I'm starting to get a feel so 398 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,600 Speaker 2: number I said fifteen to twenty teams. If you're in 399 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 2: that mix, then you have a shot to win the 400 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:39,119 Speaker 2: national title. I still believe that, but I'm starting to 401 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 2: cross off teams. I'm starting to cross off teams that. 402 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 2: Now this will go into our futures talk throughout the month. 403 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 2: This will go into when we finally get a bracket, 404 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 2: and then you know, this year when you look at 405 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 2: it and it's going to look like the it what's 406 00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 2: the rarest language in the world, I don't know. If 407 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 2: you don't speak Chines, it's going to look like Chinese characters. 408 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 2: It's the bracket. This year is going to be amazingly difficult. 409 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 2: So but I'm starting to cross off teams like I've 410 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 2: already made my determination that and I could be wrong, 411 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 2: been wrong many times where that Tennessee is not winning 412 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 2: at all because of their offense. I also have now 413 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 2: this one I'm gonna be maybe I'm so I'm by 414 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 2: myself here and on an island. I don't think Kansas 415 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 2: skinning at all. I agree they they they have too 416 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 2: many issues. They don't first of all, they don't have depth, 417 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 2: and they have nothing inside. Now Jalen Wilson can go. 418 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 2: But but now like he's so good that he could 419 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 2: take over games, and the fact that he's shooting so well, 420 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 2: and but there are too many there are too many 421 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 2: issues with this team, which is going to have a 422 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 2: target on its back. And I don't see Kansas going 423 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,160 Speaker 2: back to back. Have a lot of respect for self. 424 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,439 Speaker 2: They won't be an easy out. But I've watched this 425 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 2: team a ton this year and I think they're ultimately 426 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 2: too flawed. So I'm putting Kansas. That's probably my big takeaway. 427 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 2: I also am putting UNC. There's something off with UNC. 428 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 2: So the two teams that got to the National title 429 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 2: last year I do not think are getting back to 430 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 2: the National championship. BJ. You agree on Kansas, and that's 431 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 2: not just sour grapes because they no. 432 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 4: I think they're just they're way too reliant on Grady 433 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 4: Dick from behind the arc, and if he's having an 434 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 4: off shooting night, they just they can't put up points. 435 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 4: And you saw it against Iowa State. They shot the 436 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,679 Speaker 4: ball terribly, they turned it over a ton. They're way 437 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 4: way too streaky for me. And even the peak of Kansas, 438 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 4: like if the pendulum swings the other way, I still 439 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 4: don't think they're good enough. Even if they get hot 440 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 4: during March Madness to beat some of the teams at 441 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 4: the top. 442 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 2: So we'll see. But I agree they're way way. 443 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: Too streaky shooting wise for me to even. 444 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 3: I basically I see it with four bullet points that 445 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 3: essentially fortify is. 446 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: Stucky's original argument. 447 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 3: They're mediocre shooting the basketball there one hundred ninth and 448 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 3: shooting efficiency, they send teams to the line way too much, 449 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 3: two hundred and thirty seventh in opponent foul shot attempts 450 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 3: per game, and then you mentioned it, they get killed 451 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 3: on the glass, they're two hundred ninth and offensive rebounds allowed. 452 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 3: And then finally, on top of all of it, you 453 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 3: would think like maybe they could tighten things up when 454 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,479 Speaker 3: they have the basketball. They're sloppy with the rock. One 455 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,239 Speaker 3: hundred and seventy third in turnovers per game. That's just 456 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 3: like that's too many marks against them where it's like 457 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 3: you can't get killed on the glass and get killed 458 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 3: in the turnover margin and struggle for shooting from the field, 459 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 3: Like eventually it's not just a rough schedule, like we 460 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 3: can't just smooth everything over and say. 461 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: Well, the Big twelve is so good. 462 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 3: So they're all good. It's like good is a relative term, 463 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 3: and I agree with you. I would probably be shocked 464 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 3: if they made it past the you know, the sweet 465 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 3: sixteen at this point in the season. 466 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, And like you mentioned Dick, like they're in 467 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 2: there how important he is shooting wise to their offense. 468 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 2: But teams have realized that, right, and they're just completely 469 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 2: taking away his three and they are up in his 470 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 2: face and there's no interior. There's not like a they 471 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 2: don't have great post play, so you can really go 472 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 2: out and take away the three and not really worry 473 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 2: about that. I mean, here's Grady Dick. The last what 474 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 2: Kansas is two and four of the last six games, 475 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 2: he's going one of eight from this is from three, 476 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 2: one of eight, two of eight, two of five, one 477 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 2: a five, one of three, one of four. Teams have 478 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 2: caught on too that they also depth that is really concerning. 479 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 2: There's no reliable bench, so then you worry about that, 480 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 2: especially in the Big twelve Gauntlet. You worry about that 481 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 2: coming down the stretch the rest of the way. So yeah, 482 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 2: I'm I'm gonna throw. I'm Kansas is in my can't 483 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 2: win it. You gotta have some conditioners, So is Tennessee 484 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 2: and I'm throwing North Carolina and there North Carolina I 485 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 2: don't have in my top fifteen to twenty, but this 486 00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 2: is a team that they got there last year. They 487 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 2: have a ton of talent, but there's there's too many issues, 488 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,959 Speaker 2: especially in the defensive end, and they also can't shoot, 489 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 2: and they also don't have a bench. So similar to Kansas. 490 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 2: Similar stories there on both ends. But let's move on 491 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 2: to Monday night, and it's a bit of a lackluster 492 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 2: card to say the least. We do have Kansas hosting Texas. 493 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 2: Now this line is getting up to four. It's a 494 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 2: great spot for Kansas. Like I said, there at home, 495 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 2: they are still absolutely dynamite. They've lost four of six. 496 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 2: This is a best effort game, but some of those 497 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 2: issues that they have, Texas knows Texas is still a 498 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 2: very well coached team. This line keeps going up, I'm 499 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 2: gonna be looking at Texas. We also have Duke Miami. 500 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 2: Miami two and a half point favored here at home 501 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 2: seems a little cheap to me. It's also a great 502 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 2: spot Duke with that very emotional win over North Carolina 503 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 2: on Saturday night, this is a quick turnaround going to Miami, 504 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 2: who was an excellent offense in backcourt. This is still 505 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 2: a Duke team that I think is a bit flawed. 506 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 2: The offense is a bit raw. They benefited from North 507 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 2: Carolina missing a ton of open looks. So at two 508 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 2: and a half, I think it's Miami or nothing, Micha, 509 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 2: let me throw it. You got any thoughts on either 510 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 2: one or both of those games? 511 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:20,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna be. 512 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 3: On Texas plus the points I may sprinkle in the 513 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 3: money line. I agree that this is an absolute best effort. 514 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 3: You know, you have to defend your home floor and 515 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 3: try to pull out of this tailspin. So Kansas is 516 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 3: gonna put forth their best play. But really, I mean, 517 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:41,400 Speaker 3: I don't know. The metrics. To me, I think are 518 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 3: indicating just where Kansas is at this point in the season, 519 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 3: and I can't buy on them. The one I like 520 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 3: more though, is the under under one forty six in 521 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 3: Duke against Miami. These are two good under teams in 522 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,959 Speaker 3: acc play, and then when you look at Duke on 523 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 3: short rest coming in, they're already a plotting team that 524 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 3: This is one of the slowest Duke teams I can 525 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 3: never remember watching. They're two hundred and eighty eighth in 526 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 3: possessions per game, and Miami's not exactly you know, Jack 527 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 3: gravit either, They're one. 528 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 1: Hundred and sixty fifth. 529 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,919 Speaker 3: So when you pair that with how well Duke has 530 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 3: defended the rim, I think this just becomes a variance 531 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 3: game where do either team catch fire from three, because 532 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,959 Speaker 3: if they don't, I think this total is inflated by 533 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:20,880 Speaker 3: about four or five points. 534 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: So I'll go ahead play under one forty six PJ thoughts. 535 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, on the Duke thing, It's interesting because that game 536 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 4: specifically is a huge height mismatch because Miami's tallest starters 537 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 4: six foot seven, and they're a very very bad defensive 538 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 4: rebounding team because they don't really have that type of 539 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 4: height while Duke can just absolutely crash the offensive last 540 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 4: with the best of them. They have two seven footers, 541 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 4: So like if you look at the last time they 542 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,880 Speaker 4: faced off, you know, if you look at the shot 543 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 4: quality numbers, like Miami should have scored twelve more points 544 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,720 Speaker 4: at the rim, Well they were facing two seven footers, 545 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 4: so it's like shots are a lot harder at the 546 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 4: rim to get there. So and Duke did grab out 547 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 4: sixteen offensive rebounds in that game, as well, but the 548 00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 4: line has crashed too much yet, like you said, it's 549 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 4: a little too cheap. It's a good Miami spots. I'll 550 00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 4: probably passing on that one. I'm actually gonna go with 551 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 4: the under in the Texas Kansas game. For all the 552 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 4: things we've mentioned with Kansas's you know, shooting aggression and 553 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 4: not how streaky they are, they're also you know, Texas 554 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,919 Speaker 4: is one of the highest transition frequency teams in the 555 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 4: country and Kansas is you know, average at defending in 556 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:21,880 Speaker 4: transition and we're only talking about ten you know, ten 557 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 4: percent of the possessions per game. But you know, the 558 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 4: flip side is Kansas, even though they've been pretty streaky 559 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 4: shooting the ball, they've been very very good at defending 560 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 4: in the half court. Like they're second in the Big 561 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 4: twelve points per possession allowed in half court during conference play. 562 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 2: They've been very good. 563 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 4: At defending inside, which basically is a lot of where 564 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 4: Texas likes to go, a lot of inside, a lot 565 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 4: of mid range jumpers and Texas, you know, if Kansas 566 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,719 Speaker 4: continues to turn the ball over at this rate, I mean, 567 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 4: Texas is the top third team at forcing turnovers. So 568 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 4: I think what you'll see is Yeah, the game is 569 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 4: going to be played in transition quite often. But you 570 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 4: also have you know, Texas who's very very good defending 571 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 4: in transition as well, so uh, you know the off 572 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 4: Both these offenses too are are near the bottom of 573 00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 4: the Big twelve an offensive rebounding percentage. There's not gonna 574 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 4: be a lot of second chance points. And Texas is 575 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 4: also a very streaky shooting team themselves, So I do 576 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 4: like the under given there's not gonna be that many 577 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 4: second chance points to streaky shooting teams, and even though 578 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 4: you know the pace might be a little bit faster 579 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:19,200 Speaker 4: than normal, two teams are still good at defending in transition. 580 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 4: So I like the under in that in that Big 581 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 4: twelve clash. 582 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. I would also say for for Kansas Texas something 583 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 2: to keep in mind on spots like this, like if 584 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:29,919 Speaker 2: you like the dog and it's you know, it's a 585 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 2: short road dog and it's a team that you know 586 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 2: you're not, You're like, it's just I wish I was 587 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 2: getting five six right, and it's a smash home spot, 588 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 2: like just from a situationally in a in front of 589 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 2: a raucous crowd, which tonight it'll obviously be you can 590 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 2: always say to yourself, and you can. You don't have 591 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 2: to make the decision one time or the other. Well, 592 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 2: let me first say this, you could. You could say 593 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 2: to yourself, let me look live right, let me see 594 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 2: if Kansas comes out in front of the home crowd, 595 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 2: all juiced uff and they go up ten to nothing. Right, 596 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 2: you can see this. Texas calls a time out, they 597 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 2: settle down, they get into it. So you can go 598 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: into the game looking for your live spot. You also 599 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 2: can you don't have to make the choice one or 600 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 2: the other. You could say, all right, say you're normally 601 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 2: one hundred dollars better, and you're like, all right. Instead 602 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 2: of betting one hundred dollars on Texas, maybe I'll put 603 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 2: fifty on them pregame, and then maybe I'll look to 604 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 2: see if I can get fifty on them live. If 605 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,800 Speaker 2: I think Kansas is gonna come out and with a 606 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 2: hot start, which they may, but I think ultimately Texas 607 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 2: is seasoned enough where they can kind of withstand that run, 608 00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 2: get back into this game, and then I think it's 609 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 2: going to be a grind down to the end. All right, 610 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:45,320 Speaker 2: let's get to Monday night. Overall, we have some swaction 611 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 2: I don't know if like you're bringing any Swacktion winners, 612 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 2: but what's your best bet on site card? If it's 613 00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 2: not a swaction winner, do you have any potential slaction looks? 614 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, it pains me to say, but with it being 615 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 3: a limited card and the Jackson State game is the 616 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 3: one I had circled, and I think that the fact 617 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 3: that they're four and a half point favorite, that's just 618 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 3: about right. 619 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: I was hoping I could get like six six and 620 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 1: a half with the Golden Lions with Arkansas Pine Bluff, 621 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: But the fact that I don't, I don't want to 622 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: try to force it. 623 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 3: Like you said, it's early February, there's plenty of games 624 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 3: to be bet on, so I don't want to jump 625 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 3: the gun here. So essentially, I would say, unless you 626 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 3: can get five or better, that should be a pass. 627 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 2: Do you have a best bet tonight? 628 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 3: Honestly, I think it's going to be the under in 629 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 3: the Miami duke game. That's the one that I like 630 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 3: the best. Like I said, under one forty six and 631 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 3: everything that BJ got into in terms of duke size 632 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,479 Speaker 3: to be able to limit second chance opportunities for the Canes, 633 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 3: I think this game is going to be played in 634 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 3: the high sixties and not the seventies. 635 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 2: DJ. What you got, toy, I'll do a swaction best bet? 636 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 2: Why not? Yeah? Swacktion? Can we get serious? Serious? 637 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 5: Serious? 638 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 4: Alabama A and M catching three and half at home 639 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 4: against Grambling. Stay you're getting Grambling on them back to 640 00:31:03,400 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 4: back here. Alabama AM just took out Southern who's at 641 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:08,959 Speaker 4: the top of the conference. And the thing about it 642 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 4: is is like, if you go on ken Pum you 643 00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 4: look at Alabama and MS Metris like they're three hundred 644 00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 4: and twenty seventh in the country, but if you just 645 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 4: filter it for conference play, they actually haven't been that bad. 646 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 4: Like they're fifth in both offensive and defensive efficiency. Offensively, 647 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 4: they're you know, they're shooting pretty well from inside the arc. 648 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 4: Like they're they're not turning the know they're they're not 649 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 4: turning the ball. They are turning the ball over at 650 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 4: pretty high rate. But Grambling's dead last in the conference 651 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 4: at turning the ball over. Are forcing turnovers, and the 652 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 4: flip side of that is Grambling they turn the ball 653 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 4: over to high rate. Alabama A and M's third in 654 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 4: the conference. There in the Alabama A and M defense, 655 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 4: they're they're eleventh in the swack from defending three pointers. 656 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 4: But Grambling doesn't take a lot of three pointers. So 657 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 4: I think this is a good home spot. You know, 658 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 4: back to backs at home for Alabama and m Grambling, 659 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 4: you know, on back to back road games. So give 660 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 4: me Bulldogs in normal Alabama tonights against Grambling. 661 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 2: Good stuff there. I'm glad we got a swaction that 662 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,880 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna give let's go with Here's here's my 663 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 2: favorite spot on tonight's card. Yeah, let's go with Northern Colorado, 664 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 2: who's been pretty dreadful this year. They are well plus 665 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 2: one at home against Weaver State, who I think has overperformed. 666 00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 2: This offense has major issues. They just beat Idaho State 667 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 2: on the road in double overtime on Saturday night, and 668 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 2: now two days later they go to Greeley and face 669 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 2: Northern Colorado. Grilly's probably like five thousand feet, so you 670 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 2: got elevation here. This is their fourth straight road game 671 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 2: off at one point, double overtime win at Idaho State 672 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 2: in Pocatello, and now you're going to Grilly two days 673 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 2: later for your fourth straight road game to end a 674 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 2: road trip before you play the Montana Is at home 675 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 2: later this week. So I think this is a super 676 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 2: good spot to get Northern Colorado at home. Was lost 677 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 2: three straight on the road, now they're coming home. This 678 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 2: is your prototypical Bilo sell high on the Bears, who 679 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 2: played no defense. But I think you're gonna have leg 680 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 2: issues here for Weaver, So give me the Bears. So 681 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:25,560 Speaker 2: we've got some swackhin, some acc unders, and some terrible 682 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 2: a terrible team in the Big Sky Soda cut it 683 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 2: all covered on a horrible Monday card. But I do 684 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 2: think it's a great spot for Northern Colorado. 685 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 3: I'll go ahead and second that stuck just in terms 686 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 3: of I played college fantacy basketball with all three hundred 687 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 3: and sixty three teams, and Northern Colorado has had a 688 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 3: player all year Duldon Necked k n e c ht 689 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 3: And this guy can really fill it up. And he's 690 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 3: coming off one of his worst games in the Big 691 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,120 Speaker 3: Sky for the whole season. He's somebody can go for 692 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 3: thirty plus. So another by low moment, you know, for 693 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 3: Northern Colorado in this spot, I agree with you. I 694 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 3: think they're a team that can catch fire at least offensively, 695 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,799 Speaker 3: and they have at least one offensive engine to go to. 696 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: So I kind of like that. 697 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,760 Speaker 4: Play Mike, who's the best college Who's the best college 698 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 4: fantasy basketball player this year? 699 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 2: Oh? 700 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 1: This year it is Zach Edy without a doubt on 701 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 1: to there. 702 00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 2: Was like a small conference guy. Amis always goes Bananas. 703 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 2: She's probably up there. And by the way, Oral Roberts 704 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 2: is good like in there that I lost on them 705 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 2: on Saturday. I had UMKC who played them really tough 706 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 2: at all. They again they went by thirty plus. This 707 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 2: team plays more defense than that Oral Roberts team that 708 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 2: we saw make a run in the tournament. And Acemis 709 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 2: obviously can go Bananas or Roberts. They better win that 710 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 2: conference tournament. We better get one last Acemis run in 711 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 2: or at least a game in the tournament. But Mike, 712 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 2: who else who who you're who are the fantasy stars 713 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:00,399 Speaker 2: in college is obviously goes Bananas. Yeah. 714 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 3: If we want to go real, real deep on the board, 715 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 3: Trent Massner from Western. 716 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:05,800 Speaker 2: Illinois, Illinois. 717 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: He's been going crazy fighting leathernecks. 718 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 3: A guy in the league actually has admis And and 719 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 3: Massner in his backcourt. And the other one that always 720 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,240 Speaker 3: stands out to me is Drew Pember from unc Asheville. 721 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, he goes forty recently. 722 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, he puts up absolutely insane numbers. And then the 723 00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 3: the the wing from Santa Clara. I can never pronounce 724 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 3: his last name. 725 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 2: Putninski, he's a he's a Illinois transfer, and the and 726 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 2: Drew Pember is a Tennessee transfer, and yeah, I think 727 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 2: it's pud Zimski. I struggle say his name too, but 728 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 2: that's what you're talking about, right, Yeah, that's what I'm 729 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:49,439 Speaker 2: talking about. 730 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 3: And then the last one I would say, he's actually 731 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 3: on my father's team. Darius McGee from Liberty because Liberty 732 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 3: plays in this you know, joke conference, so he could 733 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:00,960 Speaker 3: potentially go for forty plus any point, you know, down 734 00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,399 Speaker 3: the stretch. So yeah, essentially to win in this league 735 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 3: you need to have over fifty percent composition of mid 736 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,200 Speaker 3: major guys because once again in the conference play particularly 737 00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 3: the bigs, these guys can have you know, twenty five 738 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 3: and fifteen games every other night. 739 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, Liberty all went down on Lipscomb this speaking, which 740 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 2: is surprising, but that Liberty team is good. They grind 741 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,720 Speaker 2: games out, they play their pack line d well, coached 742 00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 2: by Richie McKay, and McGee is in the gym range 743 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,439 Speaker 2: as they say, Tennessee. I think Tennessee could use pember though. 744 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 2: I mean, like that's they someone that can get his 745 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 2: own shot. And yeah, he's he's fun to watch. He's 746 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 2: like a he's he's a he looks like a you 747 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,440 Speaker 2: would never he looks like a big and he's not. 748 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:42,080 Speaker 2: You wouldn't think that. He's just the skuy that goes 749 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 2: for forty plus at any given night. But he's fun 750 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 2: to watch. So yeah, those are some fun names to 751 00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 2: check out on your ESPN pluss if you got nothing 752 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 2: going on. But yeah, I think Northern Colorado is the 753 00:36:54,680 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 2: spot tonight, and that'll do it for us.
