So 27 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: let's just dive in on these Thursday games. Store. I'm 28 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: gonna lay out just a couple of the games that 29 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 1: I see on your sheet that you have big differences 30 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: in differences of five points or more. You like pitt 31 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,680 Speaker 1: minus is seven and a half versus West Virginia in 32 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: the Backyard Brawl. You like Michigan State minus the twenty 33 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: against Western Michigan. You like Louisiana Tech plus the nineteen 34 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: and a half at Missouri, And you like I believe 35 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: Illinois plus the three and a half against Indiana. So 36 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,759 Speaker 1: what is it about these games in particular that you 37 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: like against the spread here for this week? 38 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, the Backyard Brawl first, that's one of the 39 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 2: biggest overlays that I have of any game this week. 40 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 2: I have my numbers have pitt as minus seventeen and 41 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: a half point favorites. West Virginia lost a lot over 42 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: the offseason on defense, and the defense has been the 43 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 2: one thing that is dragged their crappy offense into bowl 44 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 2: season the last couple of years. Now the defense is decimated. 45 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 2: They four starters back only on on there and and 46 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: in the back half, I think they only have two 47 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 2: but combined between the linebacker and the entire secondary unit 48 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 2: of starters that are coming back, so their defense is 49 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: going to be down in comparison to what we've seen 50 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 2: the last couple of years. That they made some changes 51 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,799 Speaker 2: on offense, but I'm not sure it's going to lead 52 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 2: to any big, you know, breakthrough. They it was smart 53 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: getting rid of Parker and bringing in Graham Harrow. You know, 54 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: I was certainly down with that, but it seems like 55 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 2: they think that they could turn JT. Daniels from water 56 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 2: to wine, and I'm sort of pessimistic about their, you know, 57 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 2: the ability for that to happen. 58 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 3: JT. 59 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 2: Daniels is the guy who's been run out of his 60 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 2: last two stops, and over the last three years combined, 61 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 2: he's had like one hundred less passing attempts than he 62 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 2: had as a true freshman. So the last three years 63 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: we just haven't seen him on the field very much. 64 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 2: I think it's a lot to ask JT. Daniels to 65 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 2: go onto this team that does not have a lot 66 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 2: of West Virginia. It does not have a lot of 67 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 2: skill talent around them. They lost their wide receiver one 68 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: over the offseason to Florida State. They lost their starting 69 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 2: running back to graduation, and they brought in lynd J. 70 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 2: Dixon to be like a committee back, and lind J. 71 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 2: Dixon has already left them, So they're their running back 72 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 2: room is not very good, their receiving room is not 73 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 2: very good. And now you're expecting JT. Daniels to sort 74 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 2: of pull everything off. You know, I again not very 75 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: confident about that. 76 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: Whereas well, Yeah, because you like Pitt, you like Pitt's 77 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: offensive side too, you think maybe a little bit has 78 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: been made too much about picking Madison leaving. I mean, 79 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: those are two major parts. But you like Slovas, you 80 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: like Momfeld, So you know it's not really Pitt that 81 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 1: you're betting on, your betting against w WVU in this game. 82 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 2: Right, Well, yeah, I mean I'm lower on the market 83 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 2: than than you know, than on West Virginia, and I'm 84 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 2: higher than the market on Pitt. Certainly, their their passing 85 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 2: offense is going to go down a bit, you know, 86 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 2: losing Pike att In Addison and losing Mark Whipple and 87 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 2: losing Brennan Marion. 88 00:03:57,960 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 3: But you know, you mentioned the two guys that you're 89 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 3: bringing in and. 90 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 2: To replace the you know, the quarterback and the wide receiver, 91 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 2: which were pretty solid additions. Like Keiden Slovs was was 92 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 2: certainly an above average powerfight starter when he was the 93 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 2: starter at USC was one of the reasons why, you know, 94 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: Daniels got kicked out of there. 95 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 3: And then you have that going for it. 96 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 2: And then Connat of Mumfield last year was in the 97 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 2: ninety six percentile according to PFF of separation gained against 98 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 2: single coverage against man man coverage. So he's a really 99 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 2: good talent too that I think people might be sleeping 100 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 2: on a little bit right now. But beyond that, like, yes, 101 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 2: you know again, I'm gonna concede that the passing offense 102 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 2: is gonna be down a bit, but the running offense 103 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 2: is absolutely going to be better. You know, That's something 104 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: that Nardoozi wants to get back to. They have a 105 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 2: deep backfield rotation where they're all coming back led by 106 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 2: Abana Konda, and then you have that and then the 107 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 2: defense is going to be better too, and the defense 108 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 2: was something created a lot of havoc last year, number 109 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 2: two in the nation in sacks per game. They were 110 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 2: top five in the nation in EPA against the run. 111 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 2: Now you bring back seven starters. They only lost one 112 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: guy to the NFL, and he was, you know, a 113 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 2: late day three pick in mathis you know, one of 114 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 2: the cornerbacks in all three levels pitas guys coming back. 115 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 2: They finished number twenty nine sp plus and defense last year. 116 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 2: They absolutely should be at least top twenty five this 117 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 2: year and maybe even top twenty. So my argument with 118 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 2: Pitt is, yes, you're losing the trump card, absolutely, but 119 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 2: you know again it's not going to fall as much 120 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 2: as people think with that, and there's two other metrics 121 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 2: that are absolutely going to tick up. So I think 122 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: they're closer to last year probably than the market. That 123 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 2: explains my overlay on this game. 124 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: How about the other three games the Michigan State by twenty, 125 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: Louisiana Tech plus the nineteen and a half, and Illinois 126 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: plus the three and a half or I might have 127 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: already fallen to three there. What's your favorite out of 128 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: that group? 129 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: I would say, well, I do like the Illinois one 130 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 2: quite a bit. You know, when Thomas and I were 131 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 2: doing our show on Sunday night. I had to double 132 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 2: check before we started we hit the record button because 133 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 2: I thought I had listed it wrong on my sheet 134 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 2: of listing Indiana as the three nine point favorite. So 135 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 2: I had to go back to the book and check, 136 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: and indeed Indiana had been installed this as the favorite. 137 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 2: I totally disagree with that, especially after you know, we 138 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 2: saw Illinois open the season last week was very, very 139 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 2: impressive against against Wyoming in Indiana. On the other side, 140 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 2: I don't I don't see how you you think that 141 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: they're gonna tick up in a similar way last year 142 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: Penis got injured pretty early into the season, you know, 143 00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 2: and then the offense just spiraled down the drain after that. 144 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: But but now you don't even have Pennix anymore, even 145 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,039 Speaker 2: the possibility of him. He transferred to Washington. The guy 146 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 2: that they brought into replace and Connor Beaslack was a 147 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 2: guy that Missouri did not want back. Indiana's running back 148 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 2: room stinks. It's stunk for years. It's gonna stink again. 149 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 2: The bigger problem is they used to have a pretty 150 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 2: good receiving court where they had like three NFL receivers 151 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: you know, they had like Fry Fogel and Phil your 152 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 2: and Nick Westbrook, you know, and then and then they 153 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 2: had Peyton Henders. Shot with those guys for a while. 154 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 2: So you had like four NFL talents, you know, that 155 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 2: were catching the ball. Now they're down to zero. So 156 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 2: you have problems with the skills. You have problems with 157 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: the quarterback. You don't love the offensive line, and you 158 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: can't love the defense very much too. Because Tom Allen, 159 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 2: earlier on his tenure, had found some some under the 160 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 2: radar stars where he pulled them out of Florida and 161 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 2: then he had sort of shined off these these low 162 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 2: three star recruits and turned them into NFL players. Those 163 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: guys are all gone now and he has not fortified 164 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 2: them by by polishing off some other gems. So I 165 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: think Indiana is going to be down. I think there's 166 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 2: going to be a really tough year for Tom Allen, 167 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 2: not sure that he survives it. 168 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 3: I like Illinois to win that game. 169 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: I like both sides of that game. I'm absolutely with you. 170 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: After we saw the Kirkland brand Wisconsin Illinois smash Wyoming 171 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: last week, I like the under in this game too, because, 172 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: like you said, you can see. I think you can 173 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 1: squint and see a path for middle of the road 174 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: offense out of Indiana with all the transfers they brought in. 175 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: But you can't expect them week one to be you know, 176 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 1: going out there and slinging the rock at maximum efficiency, 177 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So I think that, Yeah, 178 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 1: I think that this is going to be Illinois. I 179 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: think it's going to be a ugly game. I like 180 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: the under on it too, So I am absolutely with 181 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: you on this game. The other games that you liked, 182 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: either one of those, you have a strong lean towards 183 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: between Michigan State and Louisiana Tech. 184 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 3: Well, I like Louisian Attack to most of those. 185 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: I think it's just too many points, you know, live 186 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 2: this thing is ticked all the way up. It's like now, 187 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 2: it's like Missouri minus twenty. It's just too many points. 188 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 2: Missouri last year they stunk in almost every single metric 189 00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 2: except for this singularity of Tyler Batty. He was like 190 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 2: the one thing that that team had, and so they 191 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: just funnel all their touches dame on offense. Well, Tyler 192 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 2: Baty's at Baltimore Raven. Now he ain't walking through that door. 193 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 2: They signed a guy from Stanford, Nathaniel Pete, who you 194 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 2: know did not break out as a star at Stanford. 195 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 3: He's expected now to take over running back. 196 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 1: And then it banged up too, isn't he Pete? You 197 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: saw him on the injury report. 198 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, so we'll see if he ends up playing. 199 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 2: And then behind him, you know, which just holdover guys 200 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: that didn't play much behind Beaty and then at quarterback, 201 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: you know, they were the team that's left off basil Ac. 202 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 2: For this Cook kid, Cook, we saw him a bit 203 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,240 Speaker 2: at the end of last season. He might be a 204 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: little bit better through the air, but he takes more sacks. 205 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't appear that his pocket presence is as good 206 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 2: as basil Ax, at least right now. So for me, 207 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: that's sort of a wash. And also I know that 208 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 2: Missouri was is not super ballish on Cook heading into 209 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: this season, despite what they might be telling the media, 210 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 2: because every time a transfer, a big time you know, transfer, 211 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 2: portal quarterback hit the portal over the offseason, Missouri was 212 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 2: rumored to be chasing every single one of them, like 213 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 2: you can go down the line. 214 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 3: They lost on all of them. They lost on JT. Daniels, 215 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 3: they lost on Jayden Daniels. 216 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 2: They I mean everybody like you know, they tried and 217 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: they failed, and they ended up signing Jack Abraham. You know, 218 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 2: a guy who's going to be a backup for them, 219 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 2: who has been at three This is going to be 220 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 2: his fourth different FBS gooal that he's at. But you know, 221 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 2: they can't be super confident there. And then Missouri's defense 222 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 2: absolutely stunt last year. It was sub one hundred both 223 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 2: against the run and the pass, so you know you're 224 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 2: you're pessimistic about them there. Meanwhile, with Louisiana Tech, they 225 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 2: have a whole bunch of starters back on defense, they 226 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: have eight of them. 227 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 3: Last year they had one of the nation's worst defenses. 228 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 2: But it's going to be better to some degree than 229 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 2: we saw last year. The offense should be better as well. 230 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 2: You bring in a new coach and Sonny Comby, who 231 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 2: is going to be throwing the ball. 232 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 3: You know, he's one of. 233 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 2: These air rate guys. He brought with them this fifth 234 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 2: year senior Matthew Downing from TCU, where Downing is you know, 235 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 2: not the most physically gifted guy, but he knows the system, 236 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 2: the A rate system, which is more about timing than 237 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 2: beating people with you know, physicality or your athleticism, so 238 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 2: he should be a pretty good fit there. Louisiana Tech 239 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 2: has a solid offensive line for the G five. They 240 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: also have a really really good receiving car that goes 241 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: like four deep. I think Missouri is going to have 242 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 2: problems stopping them from moving the ball. You could probably 243 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 2: say the same on the other side, but I think 244 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 2: that this is a game where it is going to 245 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 2: stay within the twenty points. 246 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,439 Speaker 3: I like the underdog to cover in that one. 247 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: How about some of these over unders here? You also 248 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: like the under in this same game of Louisiana Tech 249 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: at Missouri and or no, you like the over in 250 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: that game, excuse me? And then bot Tech at ODU. 251 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: I believe you like the under in that game. It's 252 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: sitting at forty eight and a half right now. The 253 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: Missouri game is sitting at fifty eight and a half. 254 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: So for Thursday and Friday, those the two games, the 255 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: totals that you like. 256 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 2: There, Yeah, the my systems I'll put on the Missouri 257 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 2: Louisiana Tech game is actually seventy three and a half. 258 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 2: You know, for the for the over under, it's you 259 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 2: know a lot of those numbers are based on last year, 260 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 2: and of course, of course Beatty's not back, but Missouri 261 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 2: is still going to be led by their offensive foot 262 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 2: for sure. I didn't mention Luther Burton before the five 263 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 2: star receiver. He's probably going to replace as much of 264 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: Beaties production as whoever ends up being the RB one, 265 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 2: because they're going to manufacture, you know, just a metric 266 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 2: ton of touches for Burdon. But he's a true freshman, right, 267 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: so you know, how much can you expect there? And 268 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 2: then you know, again with Louisian attack the offense. You know, 269 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 2: I'm pretty bullish on that. Both these defenses stink, So yeah, 270 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,080 Speaker 2: I mean I would pick that game to go over, 271 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 2: and then the other one, the old Dominion Virginia Tech game. 272 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 2: That one live right now. When it opened on Sunday, 273 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 2: the over under was fifty and a half. It's already 274 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 2: come down by two points, I believe. 275 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: For the weather there, right, is that what you were 276 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: telling me before? 277 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's down two points, but it's not down 278 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 2: far enough. I still like the under at forty eight 279 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: and a half quite a bit. The weather is a 280 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 2: big part of it. This game is being played in Norfolk, 281 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: on Friday night. It's this weird opening scenario, and the 282 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 2: forecast is calling for fifteen miles per hour win in 283 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 2: Norfolk on Friday night. 284 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 3: That's the point where. 285 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 2: You know, the data show statistically that the win starts 286 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 2: to really affect both offenses and starts to suppress scoring 287 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 2: on once you get over that twelve to fifteen threshold. 288 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 2: So we have the win going for us in that game. 289 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,959 Speaker 2: We also on the other side with Virginia Tech, that 290 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 2: you know, the favorite of this game. They've come down 291 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 2: a little bit. I think think it opened at nine 292 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,719 Speaker 2: and a half or so and now Virginia Seck's down 293 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,960 Speaker 2: to minus seven and a half. But they have some 294 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 2: offensive personnel issues heading into this game. Looks like they're 295 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: starting running back Malachai Thomas is going to miss the game. 296 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 2: They have a new starting quarterback in Grant Wells. He's 297 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 2: working behind a very inexperienced offensive line that has four 298 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 2: different true freshmen in the ten in the two deep 299 00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 2: amongst the ten guys, so forty percent of their two 300 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 2: deep at offensive line are true freshmen. 301 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 3: And then they're running back room. 302 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 2: Even with Malachai Thomas, you would put it near the 303 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 2: bottom of the power five qualitatively, you do the same 304 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,200 Speaker 2: thing with their receiver room that you know, it's lost 305 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 2: some guys in recent years. Fuente did not recruit very 306 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 2: well at those spots in the latter part of his 307 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 2: tenure there, so the talent's down on those sides. The 308 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 2: Penn State the former Penn State defensive coordinator that they 309 00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 2: hired as college. You'd think maybe he's going to slow 310 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 2: down the pace a little bit in this one, especially 311 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 2: knowing where's the offensive line is at, knowing his starting 312 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,680 Speaker 2: running back is, knowing where his receiver room is at, 313 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 2: and then knowing the wind, you know, and stuff like that. 314 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 2: I don't think he's going to have wells trying to 315 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: throw the ball over the yard either, so you know 316 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 2: you have that. And then ODU last year was a 317 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 2: top fifteen defense in the nation in the red zone. 318 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 2: You know, they were a ben don't break team, but 319 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 2: in the red zone they were very good throughout, consistently good. 320 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,480 Speaker 2: So even you know, if Virginia Tech and push the 321 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 2: ball down the field, we'd be hoping that that old 322 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 2: dominion is going to be able to tighten once we 323 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 2: get into the red zone. 324 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 3: I like the under on that game a. 325 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: Lot all right, let's go to the top five games 326 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: of the week. Now, these are going to be hand 327 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 1: picked by me, so you get whatever Bogman thinks the 328 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: top five games are. But I don't know if there's 329 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: a really big argument with the ones I picked. Of course, 330 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 1: the biggest one here Thor being Notre Dame number five 331 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: at Ohio State number two. Ohio State is a seventeen 332 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: point favorite, the over is fifty nine. Do you have 333 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 1: a good lean one way or the other? Or is 334 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: this just say, hey, let's sit back and watch two 335 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: good teams duke it out early in the season. 336 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: I'm probably gonna stay away from this one. If I 337 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 2: bet it, I would bet on Ohio State. My line 338 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 2: on this game is Ohio State minus nineteen point seven, 339 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 2: So you know, you potentially have you know, close to 340 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 2: a field goal of line value on that side, if 341 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 2: that's the way that you. 342 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 3: Want to go. 343 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 2: But I do have a lot of questions, you know, 344 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 2: specifically on the side of Notre Dame, where you have 345 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 2: some open ending questions where you don't know exactly how 346 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 2: it's it's gonna shake out. Buckner last year, the quarterback 347 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 2: who's taken over. We saw him off the bench cheveral times, 348 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 2: you know where Kelly situationally would bring him in for 349 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 2: jack Con. But now he has to do the whole thing. 350 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: You know, he first start no pressure and no pressure 351 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: in the horseshoe against the Buck guys on national television. 352 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: Good luck kid, It's. 353 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 2: Tough, yeah, and he's going in with a first time 354 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,280 Speaker 2: head coach and Marcus Freeman. Now, of course, Marcus Freeman 355 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 2: was on the staff last year and he was promoted, 356 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: and most of the assistants, you know, we're guys that 357 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 2: were also on the staff, so you do have the continuity. 358 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: But Brian Kelly was a guy he knows every game situation, 359 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 2: you know, like that. That guy's got a mind like 360 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 2: a steal trap for that kind of stuff. Marcus Freeman, 361 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 2: you know, he's just starting out in his coaching career. 362 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 2: So we'll see if they lose anything in translation with that. 363 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 2: But it's obviously a tough opening assignment for them. And 364 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 2: then you look on the other side with with Ohio State, 365 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 2: they lost the two first round receivers, but to the 366 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 2: receiving course still arguably the best in the nation, top 367 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 2: three in the nation. Like however, you want to parse 368 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 2: that with Smith Smith and Jigba and now you have 369 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 2: Marvin Harrison, who's going to step up, Egg Buca or 370 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 2: Julian Fleming. 371 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 3: All those guys were five star recruits, so many options. Yeah, 372 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 3: they're going to be totally fine. There. They have one 373 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 3: of the nation's two best quarterbacks. 374 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 2: However you want to parse that sprout against against Bryce Young, 375 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 2: one of the nation's two best running backs in Bogman. 376 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 2: We'll just say he's number two with a bull because 377 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 2: Bijon your boy. We can't put him above that butt. 378 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,720 Speaker 2: You'd certainly put Trevon Henderson in the top two. And 379 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: then the thing that you're looking at with Ohio State 380 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 2: to decide is this a team that can beat Alabama, 381 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 2: you know, down the road, because Alabama, I think is 382 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 2: going to be one of the best college football teams 383 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 2: we see him. 384 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 3: For the last decade. 385 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 2: What the key thing for Ohio State is how much 386 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 2: is that defense going to improve under Jim Knowles, who 387 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,919 Speaker 2: they brought in to try to turn it around. 388 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 3: Carrie Koombs, who had been the previous guy there. 389 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 2: They did not like what he was doing schematically, he 390 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 2: had gotten demoted during the season stuff like that. Jim 391 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 2: Knowles is one of the best defensive coordinators in America, 392 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 2: and he has expectations there sky high. They expect to 393 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 2: be a top ten overall defense. You know, you're going 394 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 2: to get the top three offense. So certainly a national 395 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 2: title contender. Certainly one of the best two teams in 396 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 2: the nation. That's why I would lean towards them. But 397 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 2: this is a lot of points, So, like I said, 398 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 2: I'm probably going to stay away just so I can 399 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 2: watch that one. 400 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 1: What about number eleven organ on the road? Well, not really, 401 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 1: it's a neutral side game playing against Georgia, but the 402 00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: neutral side is in the Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta, 403 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: so not really a neutral side game. This is a 404 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 1: Georgia home game for real. They are sixteen and a 405 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: half point favorites. Fifty two and a half is the 406 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: over under look. Georgia lost a lot, but still the 407 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: majority of the money here, the majority of the caseh 408 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: is on the Bulldogs. How do you see this one 409 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: play out? 410 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's for me. 411 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 2: It's too many points, and that's that's pretty much what 412 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 2: this one comes down to. Like you said, it live, 413 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 2: it's it's it's Georgia by seventeen. My line on that 414 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 2: one is like Georgia minus like eleven and a half, 415 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 2: you know, something like that, or twelve. I guess I 416 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 2: have Georgia minus twelve. So I do see like five 417 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 2: points a line value on Oregon. You're paying this tax 418 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 2: for Georgia because they won the title last year, but 419 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 2: then they lost the five defenders in the first round. 420 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 2: They had ten or twelve guys get drafted overall, and 421 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 2: then you lost the you know, the architect or the 422 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 2: quasi architect of the defense. You want to get more 423 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 2: credit to Kirby, but in Dan Lanning, who is now 424 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 2: going to be the head coach on the other side. 425 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,640 Speaker 2: So Dan Lanning has a lot of information about Georgia's personnel. 426 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: Very good point. 427 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, And and you know Georgia's offense. You know, they 428 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 2: lost a couple of running backs, they lost Pickings. Obviously 429 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 2: this year they're going to go to this this crazy 430 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 2: tight end heavy thing where they have the three NFL 431 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 2: tight ends and Bowers and Eric Gilbert and darnout well 432 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 2: an aeric. 433 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: Gilbert is going to be a wide out mainly though. 434 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 2: He's the replacement for Pickens for sure. Yeah, yeah, the 435 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 2: downfield guy. But yeah, I mean you know, Georgia's offense 436 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 2: is going to look more similar than Georgia's defense. But 437 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 2: Georgia's defense last year was a historically good, you know, 438 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 2: modern college football, and that's the one that you'd expect 439 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 2: to fall off just a little bit. It's not gonna 440 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 2: fall off a ton that They still have all kinds 441 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 2: of studs. Jalen Carter Ringo is awesome in the back half. 442 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 2: They have all sorts of NFL players still. But you know, again, 443 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 2: last year you're talking about dropping from one of the 444 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 2: best that we've seen for the last twenty five years 445 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 2: to merely like, you know, a top five defense in 446 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 2: the nation. That's still a decent sized drop off, so 447 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 2: you know, and then on the Oregon side, I don't 448 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 2: think that their talent maybe is as down as as 449 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 2: some other folks do. Like they you know, I'm not 450 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 2: the biggest fan of bone Nicks obviously, but like h 451 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 2: he is an. 452 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 3: Upgrade over Anthony Brown for sure. 453 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 2: And you know at running back they lost Travis die 454 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 2: but Byron Cardwell the backup, I think he's better. 455 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 3: You know. 456 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 2: It was sort of like the situation with Devin Auchine 457 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 2: and Isaiah Spiller, Like I don't really care that A 458 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 2: and M lost filler because I think Auchane is better, right, 459 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 2: and so it's like one of those different things. 460 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 3: Oregon's also pretty good on the lines. 461 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 2: That's something that Dan Lanning can think Mario Cristobal for 462 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 2: because Mario Crystaball is obsessed with trench play and Maitre, 463 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 2: he recruited it pretty well. 464 00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 3: So I think that. 465 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 2: Oregon has enough talent to keep this one within the number. 466 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 2: And I think that if you want to bet Georgia, 467 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 2: you just have to acknowledge that you're essentially paying a 468 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 2: five point tax because of what happened last year. 469 00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: Right now, I love that breakdown. Dan Lanning a huge 470 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 1: point obviously, like you said, knows the ins and out. 471 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: It's not only of the system, but the personnel as well. 472 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 1: Let's go to the third game here that I have 473 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 1: number twenty three Cincinnati on the road against Arkansas, number nineteen. 474 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: The current line is Arkansas by six. This is what 475 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,280 Speaker 1: I gotta say. I wanted to write up in my 476 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,120 Speaker 1: article Arkansas. I read a couple of things I think 477 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 1: they went my way, and then I read Thor and Thor, 478 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: you don't like Arkansas in this game. You like Cincinnati, 479 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 1: I feel like they're replacing too much. But you know 480 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: what I did with this game was I said, I'm 481 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: gonna just stay away. I'm just gonna stay away and 482 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: see what happens Week one. I think if Cincinnati loses 483 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 1: to Arkansas, they're obviously taking a decent step backwards. But 484 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: if they go in and beat the Razorbacks in Arkansas, 485 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 1: that's a huge win for a team coming off an 486 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,959 Speaker 1: enormous year. But it looks like right now, unlike Georgia, 487 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: you are not paying the Cincinnati tax because they lost 488 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 1: so much in the NFL Draft. 489 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 2: No, you're you're getting You're getting a tax credit. I 490 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 2: suppose that's the way that we would put it. Yeah, 491 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 2: you know, objectively, you know, this is one where it 492 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,239 Speaker 2: just goes too far the other way. I have this 493 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,960 Speaker 2: line at Arkansas minus one and now live there. They're 494 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 2: now like six point favorite or six and a half 495 00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,479 Speaker 2: point favorite in the market. 496 00:21:58,720 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 3: I just think it's too much. 497 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 2: Everyone's focusing on what Cincinnati lost, and of course they 498 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 2: lost a lot. You know, they lost Ritter, and they 499 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 2: lost their own Ford, and they lost Peers. On offense 500 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 2: and then on defense, it was like sas Gardner and 501 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 2: Cook and you know, Maj Sanders, you know, and stuff 502 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 2: like that. You lost a lot of talent for sure, 503 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,360 Speaker 2: but they have a lot of talent coming back too. 504 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 2: And at this point you also trust, you give the 505 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 2: benefit of the doubt to Fickle a bit. But the 506 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 2: quarterback they should be fine there between Evan Prater, the 507 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 2: four star that they've been developing, and then they brought 508 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,119 Speaker 2: Ben Bryant back, a guy who had originally signed with him. 509 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 2: He went to EMU to escape Ridder Shadow last year 510 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 2: was really good at EMU, So I think between the two, 511 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 2: you're gonna find something there. The running back room is 512 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 2: super duper deep. The running back room actually might even 513 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 2: be better than it was with Ford just being the guy, 514 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 2: Like I said, going Ford Corey Kiner, a local kid 515 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,360 Speaker 2: who had signed with LSU initially. You bring him back. 516 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 2: He transfers Van. He was a high four star recruit. 517 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 2: They liked these other couple kids, Monk. They have two 518 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,480 Speaker 2: different guys named Montgomery that they both like. On defense, 519 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 2: They're still going to be solid. Even though you lost 520 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 2: the stars every single year. I mean, Fickle has brought them, 521 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 2: you know, all up, like the two deep last year 522 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 2: you had starting caliber players all up and down it 523 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 2: And now Cincinnati just signed a top twenty. 524 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,479 Speaker 3: Five recruiting class out of high school. 525 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 2: They also signed a top twenty five transfer portal class, 526 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 2: so Fickle has has done a pretty good job reloading. 527 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 2: And while everyone's focusing on when Cincinnati lost, curiously with 528 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 2: this matchup, they seem to be ignoring what Arkansas lost, 529 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 2: you know, and maybe that's just to help them justify 530 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 2: the bet on Arkansas. But Arkansas lost the guy that 531 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 2: they forced all the touches to last year because he 532 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 2: was by far their best offensive player in Traylon Burks. 533 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 2: They're gonna have to figure out a different way to 534 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,640 Speaker 2: play offense now because you can't can just move Traylon 535 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:45,359 Speaker 2: all around then just force some of the touches and 536 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 2: then have Traylon take on the entire world. And then 537 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 2: on defense, I think they only have four or five 538 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 2: starters back. They lost a whole lot on defense. Arkansas 539 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 2: is still going to be good that they have kJ 540 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 2: Jefferson back, that they have an interesting running back room 541 00:23:57,359 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 2: that goes, you know, three deep as well, But you know, 542 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: because of those losses, you know, I think that they 543 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 2: fall off a little bit as well. I think these 544 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,199 Speaker 2: two teams are closer in actuality than the market is 545 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 2: giving it credit for. 546 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: I like the underdog for sure, the fourth game that 547 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: I put on the list here, and I know that 548 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 1: we're both on the same side of this because we 549 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 1: talked in our stages, which we will do an hour 550 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: before we record this. It'll be five pm Eastern every 551 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: single Wednesday on the Betting Pros Discord. So please check 552 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 1: us out, come, ask us questions, interact with us. It's 553 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 1: a lot of fun over there. Number seven Utah minus 554 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: two and a half on the road in the swamp 555 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: against Florida fifty one and a half is the over here. 556 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 1: We're both on the Utah side here. I like Florida, 557 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,439 Speaker 1: and I think that you know, if you look in 558 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 1: recruiting classes and in terms of skill, Florida is definitely 559 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: better than Utah. But no coach has been able to 560 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: turn the talent into production since urban Meyer left at Florida. 561 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: Kyle Whittingham has been at Utah for a million years, 562 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,639 Speaker 1: I think realistically since two thousand and five, So just 563 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 1: the experience in switching over to cam Rising early in 564 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: the year last year really turned that team around. They 565 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: won the Pac twelve last year. They're not replacing a lot. 566 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: They have a lot of returning production. So I like 567 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: the utes here and I know you do too, Thor 568 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 1: I do. 569 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that, you know, Britain, you mentioned it 570 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 2: that bringing back a whole bunch on both sides of 571 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 2: the ball. 572 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 3: The offense is going to be really, really good. 573 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 2: You got Rising back, you have Thomas back, Tavian Thomas, 574 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 2: one of the best running backs in America. You have 575 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 2: four starting offensive lineman coming back, and I think they 576 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,080 Speaker 2: had it's either four of the top five or five 577 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 2: of the top six pass catchers as well, So you 578 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 2: bring back a ton on offense. On defense, the big 579 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 2: loss was Devin Lloyd, but they did a pretty decent 580 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 2: job with a one for one trying to swap him 581 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,400 Speaker 2: out by stealing a guy off the roster that they're 582 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 2: about to see in Muhammadiyabati, who they took from Florida. 583 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: We would say that he might have impact, but it's 584 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: more personnel because obviously he got out before the coach change, So. 585 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he should fortify that linebacking corps and Utah 586 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,120 Speaker 2: is very strong up front. They always have been under 587 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 2: winning him and they're secondary, which invariably is also very 588 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 2: strong underwinning him. That's going to be very very good 589 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 2: this year as well. I really really like this, this 590 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,199 Speaker 2: Utah team, and you were sort of alluding to this 591 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 2: with Florida on the other side of it, where you know. 592 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 3: Long term, I'm bullish on Napier for sure. 593 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: I mean this Kay was in November three. Do you 594 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: think you would still have Utah? Do you think you'd 595 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: have Florida? 596 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 2: Maybe I would have to see about where's the offensive 597 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 2: line that at Florida. You know, it's a unit that's 598 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 2: been awful for the last couple of years. 599 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 3: How far does that does that jump up? You know, 600 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 3: if at all. 601 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 2: Napier did bring an NFL offensive guard with him from Louisiana, 602 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 2: this enormous kid, so that they're their offensive line is 603 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,240 Speaker 2: going to be a little bit better, but from where 604 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 2: it's coming from, and now you're facing a team like Utah, 605 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: it is going to have to jump up significantly to 606 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 2: compete in the trenches there. And then on defense, they've 607 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 2: been a tire fire for the last couple of years. 608 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 3: So I don't know how how. 609 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 2: You're going to trust Florida with your money against this 610 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 2: this Utah team. Where we know all these kids, like, 611 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,960 Speaker 2: we know this team is just rock solid. After Cam 612 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 2: Rising took over for in Week three or Week four 613 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: last year, that team was awesome. They were one of 614 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 2: the best teams in the nation, you know, for the 615 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 2: rest of the season. And they're one of the few 616 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 2: teams in the nation that has an enormous amount of 617 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 2: continuity coming back, both with their coaching staff and also 618 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 2: both on the offensive and the defensive sides of the ball. 619 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,560 Speaker 3: I really like you taught to win this game. And 620 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 3: some of my numbers, my numbers of Utah minus. 621 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 1: Six the last game of the top five. And look, 622 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,119 Speaker 1: we could have gone different ways here. We could have 623 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: just thrown Alabama out right, you know, forty one and 624 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: a half point favorites against Utah State. We could have 625 00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:33,640 Speaker 1: talked about some of these other ranked teams. But this 626 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 1: is the game I want because I do think it's 627 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 1: going to be competitive. It's number twenty four. Houston is 628 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: a four point road favorite against UTSA. The over is 629 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: sixty two here thor how do you see this game 630 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:48,439 Speaker 1: playing out? I kind of like UTSA at home. But 631 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 1: Houston's no joke. They're ranked for a reason. They are 632 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: very good squad. I probably honestly wouldn't mess with this 633 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:57,920 Speaker 1: one way or the other. But how do you see 634 00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 1: this one going? 635 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you on that. I'm probably not going 636 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 3: to mess with this one either. 637 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,360 Speaker 2: Because both of these teams, you know we talked both 638 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 2: on this show and then also on the stages that 639 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 2: we did of you have games where you'll be higher 640 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 2: on the one team than the market and maybe lower 641 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 2: on the other team, and it can open up these 642 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 2: value windows perceived or real. But you know where it 643 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 2: does you pull the trigger. This is a game where 644 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 2: I was lower on both these two teams than the market. 645 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 2: Over the summer Houston, I'm not sure that people were 646 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 2: baking enough. You know, you read that the Houston previous 647 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 2: that people had out there and mostly focuses on the offense, 648 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,119 Speaker 2: you know, and what they brought back, and you know 649 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: with Clayton Tune and you have Tank Dell and everything 650 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 2: like that, and you know behind Dana Holgerson, you know, 651 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 2: calling the shots. Yeah, the offense should be pretty solid, 652 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 2: but I don't think people are focusing enough on what 653 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 2: they lost on defense, and defense was the reason why 654 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 2: they were so good last year. They had all the 655 00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 2: different NFL defenders that the one kid win and the 656 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,200 Speaker 2: first round Logan Hall, he wasn't the only guy that 657 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 2: got drafted off that that Houston defense. They they got 658 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 2: kind of cratered out on the defensive side of the law. 659 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 2: So you would think that they're going to go from 660 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 2: like a top twenty defense. Now you're going to regress 661 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 2: back maybe to where you've been previously in the Holgrison era. 662 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 2: And then the other thing is they lost the guy 663 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: that they were expecting to be their starting running back 664 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 2: in spring ball for the season. The running back that 665 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 2: they have is fine, Tejon Henry, but he's more of 666 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 2: an airback, you know, He's not the guy that can 667 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 2: they handle the whole pounding, so that the running game 668 00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: is probably going to be a little bit down. 669 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 3: And then on the UTSA side, you. 670 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 2: Bring back Frank Harris, which is great, and you bring 671 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 2: back Franklin, which is great too, But they lost the 672 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:36,160 Speaker 2: running back, the stud Sincere McCormick. And you know, I 673 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 2: thought that they had signed a kid for Mark and 674 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 2: saw that I thought was just going to take Oliver 675 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 2: Traylon Smith. But I was reading through the you know, 676 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 2: all this stuff in camp. It doesn't look like Traylon 677 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 2: Smith has stolen that job. It looks like he's you know, 678 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 2: not he definitely not starting. This kid named Brady, it 679 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 2: looks like is the guy leading their depth chart. So 680 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 2: wet to see the way that their their running game 681 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 2: shakes out. And last year, you know, sort of a 682 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 2: magical year for them, where they caught a lot of 683 00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 2: things right and they they won all these different games. 684 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 2: I don't think that this year is gonna go quite 685 00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:06,120 Speaker 2: as well for them. But like I say, I'm just 686 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 2: a little bit lower on both these eians. My line 687 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 2: in this game is Houston minus five point nine. You're 688 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 2: sort of within the window. I'm not touching this one. 689 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 3: All right. 690 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: So let's go to your picks for the week. I 691 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 1: listed a bunch of games that you have overlays on 692 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 1: but thor obviously, I'm just gonna go ahead and soft 693 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: pitch this to you. Give us some games that you 694 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: like this week, whether it's against the spread, over unders, 695 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 1: anything else, any other props that you see that you like, 696 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: whatever it is, this is your time to tell the 697 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: people what you like this week. 698 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 2: Well, the props haven't opened on my book yet, so 699 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 2: we'll have to wait for the next couple of days 700 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 2: on those. 701 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:45,920 Speaker 3: I'll definitely have some of my Saturday show with when. 702 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,719 Speaker 1: Did those props usually come out? They come out Saturday 703 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 1: morning or Friday night. 704 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 2: It's usually on Friday. Yeah, Friday books to put them 705 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 2: on some other bucks. You know, apparently I'm not on these, 706 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 2: but like there's apparently some other books where the college 707 00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 2: props come out maybe a couple. 708 00:30:59,120 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 3: Of days before that. 709 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 2: But yeah, you're never getting them before Tuesday at the earliest, 710 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 2: but the earliest one that opens them. But most books 711 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 2: are waiting for Friday to drop the college props. They 712 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 2: probably want to see it the other books, like where 713 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 2: they've gotten bet up and down. Because the books make 714 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 2: so many mistakes with college props. We took advantage. I 715 00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 2: think I last week. I don't want to misquote it, 716 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 2: but I think I gave out four props on the 717 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 2: show with Farrell. I think they went four and oh. 718 00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure they win four and O. If they didn't, 719 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 2: it was three in one, but I'm pretty sure they 720 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 2: went four and oh. But yeah, we'll talk about those 721 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 2: then on Saturday. One of the other sides that I 722 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: like a game on Friday night and Bogs. We talked 723 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 2: about this on the stage. Is I really like TCU 724 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 2: against Colorado? 725 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 3: This is yeah. 726 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 2: And this is a game that Thomas and I hit 727 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 2: on pretty extensively on our Sunday show, where it's like 728 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 2: the line look ahead TCU was only opened by the 729 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: books as a ten and a half point favorite. It 730 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 2: was one of those where it just jumped off the page. 731 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 2: This is way too low. It has already been bet 732 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 2: up to TCU minus thirteen and a half off in 733 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 2: the you know, forty eight plus hours since I would 734 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 2: be surprised if that is not over two touchdowns by 735 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 2: the time we get to kick, and effective might might 736 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 2: get there tomorrow. I mean, you know, this line could 737 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 2: conceivably be up by you know, around seventeen by the 738 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: time this kicks. 739 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 1: Tc bewhelming. Majority of the money is laying the points 740 00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 1: at plus fourteen for TCU right now. And I like 741 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 1: this game two thor My thing in this one is 742 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 1: because I talked a lot about continuity, specifically in my 743 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: article that will be out tomorrow on Betting Pros. But 744 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: I talked a lot about continuity for week one, and 745 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 1: you do have a new coach and a new starting quarterback. 746 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: Really for TCU, and a lot of moving pieces. But 747 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: they're playing Colorado. Colorado is miserable. I think the only 748 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 1: reason it was that low is because Texas A and 749 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: M had a tough time against Colorado when Haines King 750 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: went out for them early in the year last year. 751 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,960 Speaker 1: So I think that that may be a little bit 752 00:32:57,040 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: of it. But I just I expect TCU to score 753 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 1: points of Colorado too. Not so the world worst P 754 00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: five teams, I think Colorado. So I like TCU to 755 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: roll in that one. I'm right there with you. 756 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, Colorado certainly at this point now is near the bottom. 757 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 3: Of the Power five. Absolutely. 758 00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 2: You know, they've moved into the neighborhood with with Van 759 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 2: Vandy wants to move out of that neighborhood now, but 760 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:20,200 Speaker 2: Kansas and. 761 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,000 Speaker 1: I'd take Vandy after watching them against Hawaii, I tell 762 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: you that much. 763 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 2: I think I would take Vandy straight up against Colorado 764 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 2: at this point too. But yeah, you know, we talked 765 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 2: a lot in the off season about how much talent 766 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 2: USC added and this historical offseason of the player movement 767 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 2: they USC jump way way up. Colorado is on the 768 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 2: opposite end of the polarity where everyone just went into 769 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 2: Boulder and plucked every player off the roster that they wanted. 770 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: I think Colorado ended up they lost twenty three guys 771 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,400 Speaker 2: in the portal. I believe you know from from my 772 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 2: count that they lost the most players of any other school, 773 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:55,239 Speaker 2: and a lot of them were in there. 774 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 3: They're too deep. So Colorado is. 775 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,240 Speaker 2: Down even in relation to what they were last year. 776 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 2: And last year they weren't good. You know, they went 777 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 2: four and eight last year. They're definitely going to be 778 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 2: worse this year. And then meanwhile, on the other side 779 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 2: with TCU, you mentioned how much experience they have coming back. 780 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 3: Their top ten in the nation. 781 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:15,720 Speaker 2: In returning experience that comes back, I believe it's eighteen 782 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 2: total starters. So again totally opposite side USC they had 783 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 2: jumped to my from the end of last season to 784 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,240 Speaker 2: my power rankings right now, they had jumped thirty nine spots. 785 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 2: TCU is the only team that jumped higher than that. 786 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 2: They actually jumped up forty spots in my power ratings. 787 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,040 Speaker 2: You both have the returning experience, but also with them 788 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 2: you have the thing where last year's team it regressed 789 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 2: so bad because of two very very specific things. Number one, 790 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 2: the passing offense, which was inefficient and turnover prone. And 791 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,560 Speaker 2: then number two the defense shockingly and you know this 792 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 2: is why Gary Patterson got thrown the door. But they 793 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 2: gave up like eleven points more per game than they 794 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,759 Speaker 2: had the previous year, just totally you know, fell off 795 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 2: or whatever. 796 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 3: This year you have a million starters. 797 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,120 Speaker 2: Coming back on defense, you know, like nine or and 798 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,440 Speaker 2: starts coming back on defense that they mathematically they cannot 799 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 2: be worse. 800 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 3: They will be better. By definitely, they are going to 801 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 3: be better than they were last year. 802 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 2: Probably you would you would probably cut it with where 803 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 2: they're going to be halfway between the two of the 804 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 2: from the year before and last year, but that would 805 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 2: cut off like five and a half points per game, right, 806 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 2: so you're almost so now you're you start with almost 807 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 2: a touchdown head start over every game that he had 808 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:26,919 Speaker 2: last year, and then the offense should be way better too. 809 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 2: I was mentioning that the passing offense was their issue 810 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 2: last year. Max Max Dugan being the quarterback has been 811 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 2: the last couple of years. Max Dugan had certainly had 812 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 2: things going for him. You know, he's a tough runner, 813 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 2: you know, dual threat element to his game, and he 814 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,879 Speaker 2: had a big arm. Accuracy is not Max Dugan's thing. 815 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,919 Speaker 2: He Max Dugan struggled very poorly with accuracy. He also 816 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 2: had some pocket presence issues where you'd throw the ball 817 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 2: up for grabs. 818 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:50,439 Speaker 3: And stuff like that. 819 00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 2: You go from that to now you go to a 820 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 2: quarterback who is perfectly suited for for the air raid 821 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 2: in Chandler Morris, and he's running the Sonny Dyke's air 822 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,160 Speaker 2: raid system, which is develop. I mean, like, you want 823 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 2: to talk about the most quarterback friendly system that you 824 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 2: can possibly be playing in might be Sonny Dykes's system. 825 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 3: So they should be solid there. TCU's receiving cores. 826 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,919 Speaker 2: People don't realize this because of how you know, poor 827 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,120 Speaker 2: Dugan was with the accuracy, But TCU has one of 828 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 2: the best receiving cores in the nation. Quinton Johnson is 829 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 2: going to go in the first round in April. I believe, 830 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,719 Speaker 2: you know, six four two ten receiver on the outside, 831 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 2: runs high four threes, low four fours, tremendous ball scales, 832 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 2: breaks tackles, you know, he averages. 833 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: It is a crime that this dude has fifty five 834 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,120 Speaker 1: catches first, It's crazy, absolute crime. 835 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 2: And he's broken like twenty eight, twenty nine tackles in 836 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 2: those fifty five catches, so he breaks, you know, a 837 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 2: tackle every two catches. Basically he can also again, he 838 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 2: can also make the plays down the field. So he's 839 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 2: a guy that can you can you can manufacture the 840 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 2: touch of short he's going to create for you because 841 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 2: you can break the tackles and then you can send 842 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 2: them deep and he can do that stuff too. And 843 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 2: then the three guys behind him are really solid too. 844 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 2: That you know, three other starting caliber Power five receivers 845 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 2: and then the running back. You know that they had 846 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 2: lost Zach Evans to Mississippi, and Zach Evans, you know, 847 00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 2: last year, was probably their best offensive player, a former 848 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,520 Speaker 2: five star guy, but not a very good sister or 849 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,759 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, not a very good fit for the air raid. 850 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 3: You know. 851 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: He's just you know, the between the tackles runner, and 852 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 2: he can get outside certainly to the explosion. But he 853 00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: is not good on third downs. It never has been. 854 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 2: Doesn't get throwing the ball a lot, doesn't pass block Miller. 855 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 2: The holdover running back the TCU has who is a 856 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,080 Speaker 2: little bit better on a per touch basis than Evans 857 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 2: last year. He is the more prototypical receiving back. He's 858 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:34,880 Speaker 2: going to be a very good fit for this system. 859 00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 2: I think TCU takes a giant step up this year 860 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 2: over what we saw last year. And I do not 861 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 2: believe that Carl Durrell survives the entire regular season. I 862 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 2: think he's going to get fired in either in late 863 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 2: October or early November, and I think that the poor 864 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 2: season starts out for Colorado here. 865 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: There any other games that you have a strong lead on, 866 00:37:54,080 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 1: whether it's the like I said, the over under or 867 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,399 Speaker 1: the spread this week or anything else you have. 868 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 2: See we hit on one random one that I'm sniffing around. 869 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 2: I kind of like Middle Tennessee plus the points against 870 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 2: James Madison. I think the books are too high on 871 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:16,000 Speaker 2: James Madison. James Madison. They're the one FCS team that 872 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,959 Speaker 2: jumped up to the FBS this year and now there's 873 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:19,800 Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty. 874 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 3: One teams in the FBS. 875 00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,399 Speaker 2: James Madison has been very good at the subdivision level 876 00:38:24,400 --> 00:38:27,359 Speaker 2: the last couple of years, and I think sometimes there's 877 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 2: a mistake made of thinking that that's just going to continue. 878 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 3: But if you look back at the former. 879 00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:37,279 Speaker 1: More WKU in their system probably has a lot of that. 880 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 1: Because Houston Baptist, the whole coaching staff and quarterback came 881 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,279 Speaker 1: in and said NCAA records last year. So I think 882 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 1: a little bit of that has to do with James 883 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: Madison as well well, Like. 884 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 2: You know, the last like four power FCS teams that 885 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 2: have jumped to the sunballots, like in Georgia Southern, I 886 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 2: think Georgia State, Appy State, maybe Coastal. You know, I 887 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:03,160 Speaker 2: think those teams were very, very good in the FCS 888 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 2: and then their first year in the FBS was was 889 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 2: but as a group there there was an excession but 890 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 2: was not as nearly as good and it took them 891 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 2: a little time to sort of build up or whatever 892 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 2: was they would have been significantly low. Like the the 893 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 2: win total that Vegas was projecting James Madison four in 894 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,800 Speaker 2: the offseason, which was shockingly set at six and a half, 895 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,840 Speaker 2: despite the fact that James Madison is only playing eleven games. 896 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,759 Speaker 2: You know, again, this is an FCS team. It's good, 897 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 2: it's a good SCS team, but now they have to 898 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 2: jump up to the next level. Middle Tennessee is bringing 899 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 2: back a lot of different guys. That bring back the quarterback, 900 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 2: they bring them back a lot of receivers. They're going 901 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 2: to a true air rate system this year, which I 902 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,000 Speaker 2: think is probably better suited for what they do. 903 00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 3: They've not run the ball well in recent years. 904 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 2: Now you try to move even further away from that, 905 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,480 Speaker 2: put the ball up in the air and the offensive 906 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 2: person else. 907 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 3: Should take to that pretty quickly. 908 00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 2: My line on this game is it's jam you minus 909 00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,200 Speaker 2: half a point, so it's basically a coin flip pick on, 910 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,960 Speaker 2: whereas in Vegas it's it's Middle Tennessee plus six and 911 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 2: a half, which just seems like absurdly no credit for 912 00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 2: what's a decent you know FBS team facing this team 913 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,040 Speaker 2: who is coming up in their first game. 914 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: All right, well, I think that is going to wrap 915 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 1: it up for us this week. Obviously great information from Thor. 916 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:23,839 Speaker 1: Follow him on the Twitter at thor ku and Thor 917 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 1: Once again.
