Speaker 3: fifty and the kick is block the college football world stunner.

6
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, please stumbled the mumble the lateral to

7
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: the counter on the inside, don't you the lad take

8
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: them up the field to night.

9
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,280
Speaker 3: It's not the sage on the dog in the fight,

10
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 3: it's the sage of the fight.

11
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 2: In the.

12
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: What's up the general nation? Welcome to the Action Network podcast.

13
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:05,240
Speaker 1: This is the college football betting preview for Week twelve.

14
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: I'm stuck in with me, as always is Colin Wilson.

15
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: I finally hit a mac bet last night, and I

16
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: don't know how. It was the most miraculous bet ever.

17
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 2: Yeah. I'm back from Vegas and refreshed and happy to

18
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 2: see that Miami of Ohio can stop scoring for me

19
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 2: so I can hit an under fifty one against Bowling Green,

20
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: Bowling Green. Most pathetic offensive formas I've seen in a

21
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 2: long time.

22
00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, mine, Ohio. Their offense actually woke up, but they

23
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: were getting benefiting for more turnovers. I mean, the team

24
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: is just not good. The MAC is crazy. I bet

25
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: on Accrod again and it went as you might expect

26
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: for those who listen to our morning Saturday morning show

27
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: at ten thirty am Eastern. I do have a little

28
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: surprise and it might be a clown mask that I'll

29
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 1: be wearing, but acrid it becomes the first team ever

30
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: to start a season oh and ten against the spread.

31
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: But yeah, I was happy to see that no one

32
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: else scored that game. I turned it off. I was like,

33
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: there's no way this is going under and then I

34
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: would pull up the action and then I would say,

35
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: all right, wait, still no score, Still no score, and

36
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: I wouldn't turn it on out of just superstition. So

37
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: that was one thing that went right last night. I'm

38
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 1: so unlucky and had one of those unlucky college basketball nights,

39
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: and there'll be many of those, and lucky just last minute,

40
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: random variant, so it was nice to have that one

41
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: go my way. I think it's my first MAC bet

42
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: I've hit all year. But enough about the MAC. Nobody

43
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: cares about the MAC unless it's Tuesday or Wednesday, and

44
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: you're listening to this on Nay. If you're listening live,

45
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: that's Thursday or on our podcast. It's Friday, and we

46
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 1: have a beautiful college football slate here coming up on Saturday.

47
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: We'll go through conference by conference as we always do.

48
00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,399
Speaker 1: We'll touch on our money line underdogs. We finally hit

49
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: two last week. It's a miracle. What thanks Western, Kentucky

50
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 1: and LSU for getting it done. Colin, you don't have

51
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: to talk about your Hogs this week. They can't lose

52
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: at least I don't think. So we'll get to our

53
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: favorite favorites and we'll also talk about Friday Night Lights

54
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: later as well. But let's stalk college football playoff. I

55
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: know we talked about this on a live show we

56
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 1: did on Tuesday night, But do you really think that

57
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: the committee is just enabling Alabama to get in here

58
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: putting them at five to back door and get in

59
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: at the last minute. Is that what they're doing by

60
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 1: putting them five?

61
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: I mean you have to look at who could possibly

62
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 2: hop them and what their strength to schedule is the

63
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 2: rest of the way, because it's going to come into play,

64
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 2: right So Oklahoma pushed all the way down to tent,

65
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: they're still going to get Baylor, possibly twice. But you

66
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 2: know how far is Baylor going to fall after oh

67
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 2: you beat them, if they potentially beat them, I believe,

68
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: you know, Iowa State's up there, so they've got some

69
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 2: teams in the top twenty five that Oklahoma's going to

70
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: be able to make up some ground. But I mean,

71
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 2: you look at the PAC twelve and I hate to

72
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 2: say this because I have a lot of Utah futures,

73
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 2: right and I kind of want to see the PAC

74
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: twelve get into the playoff discussion. Again, it's just organ

75
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 2: in Utah, and if the committee values either of those

76
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: teams beating each other in the PAC twelve championship game,

77
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 2: then they should hop Alabama. I mean, who's Alabama beaten? Right?

78
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think Alabama is going to get

79
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: through Auburn, but I really hope we're not in scenario

80
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: where a one loss Alabama with basically a victory over

81
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: Auburn is the only thing they have a leg to

82
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 2: stand on try to get to the playoff.

83
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, basically, what I think it comes down

84
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: to is, you know, if you assume Clemson wins out therein,

85
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: you assume that Ohio State wins out therein and LSU,

86
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: they can afford one one more loss, I think. But

87
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 1: let's just assume those three teams are in. So then

88
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: it comes down to does Georgia win the SEC championship

89
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: and they have to win out also and we'll get

90
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 1: to the Georgia Auburn game this weekend. So if they

91
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 1: do that, I think Georgia takes that last spot and

92
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: LSU also gets in. If not, if LC wins the

93
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: SEC championship game, it comes down to Alabama if they

94
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: went out with one loss, or you know, Oklahoma and

95
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 1: or the Pac twelve champion with one loss to who

96
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: do you take in that case a twelve and one

97
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: conference champion from the PAC twelve or Big twelve or

98
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: Alabama who didn't make it to the conference champion and

99
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 1: just has that aubur win. So it should be interesting.

100
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 1: And if that happens, I mean, if you're just left

101
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: with those three spots and you have two conference champions

102
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: in Alabama, bow boy, there's going to be some heated people.

103
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: But we'll have much more on that. We'll have an

104
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: article every week on the actionnwork dot com before we.

105
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 2: Get into the games. I really hope Alabama doesn't make

106
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 2: the playoff because you and I both know the SEC

107
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 2: team that doesn't make the college football playoff that goes

108
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 2: to the Sugar Bowl is the hammer spot of the

109
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:12,799
Speaker 2: year to fade.

110
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember Oklahoma just rolling Alabama. When was that

111
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: five years ago? And yeah that was beautiful, But yeah

112
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: by a great Texas last year against Georgia. All right,

113
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: let's get into the marquee games the weekend. It's another

114
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: fabulous weekend of college football. Let's check out the marquee

115
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: matchups will all end up betting for Week twelve. There's

116
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: two I think main games that I would consider marquis

117
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: this weekend. Those are between Oklahoma Baylor and Georgia Auburn.

118
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: These are playoff elimination games because you could make you know,

119
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: if Georgia loses, they're out. If Auburn loses, they're obviously

120
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 1: done too, because you could make an outside case that

121
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: maybe Auburn I don't think so, but obviously if they lose,

122
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: their out. So that's a PLAYOFFU lilimited game. And so

123
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,799
Speaker 1: is Oklahoma Baylor. I mean, Baylor is sitting at thirteen.

124
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 1: They're going to need a ton of help to get there,

125
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: but they need to win out to even have a prayer.

126
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: And if Oklahoma loses this to drop their second bay

127
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: are completely done, and then it's really between the Pac

128
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: twelve champion Alabama or does Georgia win the SEC. Let's

129
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: start with Oklahoma Baylor. Look, I haven't been a believer

130
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: in that. I love Matt rule, but I haven't been

131
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: a believer in this Baylor team is you know, a

132
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: top seven or eight team all year, and there's a

133
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 1: reason for that, you know. I see some potential weaknesses

134
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: in their past defense. I mean, they don't give up

135
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: big plays, I do have to say that, but you

136
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,040
Speaker 1: can efficiently move the ball against them. But if you

137
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: look at some of the results, they had two lucky

138
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: overtime wins. I mean, I'm still in shock that I

139
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: lost that TCU game last week when their joe beat

140
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 1: Baylor's joe kicker, you know, and a fourth down he

141
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 1: made a field goal to force overtime, and it was

142
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,280
Speaker 1: just a mess. And they won another overtime game and

143
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: a controversial call against Texas Tech, and then they barely

144
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: beat Rice. So the resume isn't great. And then you know,

145
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 1: Oklahoma lost to Kansas State in convincing fashion, and then

146
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 1: you know, I had to survive at two point conversion

147
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 1: against Iowa State. In fairness to them, they were up

148
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: twenty one in that game, and you know, i Was

149
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: State made a furious comeback. If you look at the

150
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: advanced metrics again, it's Oakland and I said this last

151
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: week at Oklahoma. Their defense again, it's there's some worrying

152
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 1: stats and it's mainly giving up huge explosive plays. And

153
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: if there's one thing to worry about with Baylor, it's

154
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: them hitting explosive plays. So I think that Oklahoma's going

155
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: to be able to move the ball and they're gonna

156
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 1: be able to move the ball through the air. You know.

157
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: They're number one in rushing success, number two in passing success,

158
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 1: you know, and Baylor has questions on the offensive line.

159
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 1: I think Oklahoma can pressure quarterback and I think that

160
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 1: they can cause some havoc. It's a really aggressive defense,

161
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: but they're going to be vulnerable to Baylor big plays.

162
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: And Baylor's an opportunity to hit a lot of explosive

163
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: plays against this Oklahoma team. This line's currently sitting at

164
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: Oklahoma minus ten. It's the we'll touch ten and a

165
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: half with some books. I think it's going to hang

166
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: out around there. What do you see here?

167
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 2: All the advanced metrics that you talked about right spot on.

168
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 2: So I mean Oklahoma kind of got by brock party

169
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 2: sooners were cruising at fourteen. Just at any point in

170
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:05,560
Speaker 2: the game, it seemed like they were up by fourteen,

171
00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 2: which is exactly where the point spread was. And then

172
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 2: under five minutes left just a blitz. It was an

173
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 2: Iowa State explosive pass for thirty three yards for a TD.

174
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 2: An interception later and then we got another TD and

175
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,920
Speaker 2: we're going for a two point conversion to you know,

176
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 2: knock Oklahoma out of the national picture, you know, and

177
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 2: that seems to be how to attack Oklahoma, you know,

178
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 2: make Jalen Hurts uncomfortable. Oh, you had plenty of passes defense,

179
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 2: but they didn't have any sacks and they only had

180
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: two and a half tackles for loss, so they weren't

181
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 2: getting into the backfield whatsoever. And the thing is Alex

182
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 2: Grinch kind of built this defense upon calling it to

183
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 2: speed d you know, upon effort. It's all about effort,

184
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 2: it's not about scheme. And I'm wondering where the effort

185
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 2: is here because there's been a couple of games where

186
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 2: ou has not just been able to lock it down

187
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 2: and keep teams from coming back, you know, and it's

188
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 2: a unit that's nineteenth in sac rate. So where has

189
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 2: this Oklahoma effort been on the defensive side of the ball.

190
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: And you know, the Oklahoma offense needs to quit putting

191
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 2: these teams in position to expose the defense. So, you know, Baylor,

192
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: like you said, they have serious rush explos from this

193
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 2: advantage in this game. That's something I Aloway State didn't have.

194
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 2: They're not that good on the ground as far you know,

195
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 2: losing David Montgomery. They just don't have a rushing attack.

196
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 2: It's all brought pretty. Baylor's sixteenth and runs over twenty yards,

197
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 2: oh used defenses outside the top one hundred and allowing

198
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 2: gains over twenty yards on the ground. And Jalen Hurs

199
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 2: just hasn't handled pressure well this season at all. And

200
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 2: Baylor's twenty first and sack right. So for me, you know,

201
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 2: I think the numbers spot on. I made it nine

202
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,439
Speaker 2: point nine. I'm looking under in this game because it

203
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 2: seems like if the teams are going to have success,

204
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 2: it's going to be on the ground. So generally that

205
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 2: heat a bunch of clock. I do have a protected

206
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 2: just a little bit. I think exactly just a point

207
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 2: or two below the sixty eight that it's currently at.

208
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 2: But you know, a Baylor under this offense is Baylor

209
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 2: offense has just been atrocious, you know. I mean, this

210
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 2: is West Virginia game. They were limited and explosive plays.

211
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 2: That was Halloween night, they had, you know, had a

212
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 2: field goal there to end that game. And then last

213
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 2: week somehow TCU Baylor goes over but there were no

214
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 2: touchdowns in regulation. One of the worst overs I've ever

215
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 2: seen in my entire life. So I don't trust the

216
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 2: Baylor offense. I do trust their defense, So I actually

217
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,320
Speaker 2: probably going to look under in this game. But I

218
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 2: can't trust my money on OU right now. I mean,

219
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 2: if they're not going to have any effort on defense,

220
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 2: which is what the scheme is based upon, I can't

221
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 2: back o you right now.

222
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I've them in a money line parlay

223
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: with a game that we'll get to later. I think

224
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: that they're gonna win this game. I mean I make

225
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: them over a ten point favorite, and I think that

226
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: where they'll win this game is upfront with their defensive line.

227
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: Baylor offensive line has major question marks. That was the

228
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: unit that had the most questions coming into the season.

229
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: They're one hundred and third and sack rate and you

230
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: mentioned Oklahoma's d's top twenty and then stuff, right, they're

231
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:32,840
Speaker 1: outside the top ninety and Oklahoma is number five in

232
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: the country. So they're gonna get some third and one,

233
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: fourth and one stops and I think that they're going

234
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 1: to get to Brewer, you know, have get a couple

235
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: of sacks, maybe cause a fumble, get them in third

236
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: and long situations, and I think ultimately that's the difference.

237
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,719
Speaker 1: But Baylor will make this interesting because they're going to

238
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 1: hit explosive plays against the Oklahoma defense. It's one hundred

239
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: and twenty seventh defending rush explosiveness and eighty seventh in

240
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: past exploseness. It's an aggressive D and they're you know

241
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,480
Speaker 1: that you can get them on the back end. All right,

242
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: let's talk talk about the other Marquee game on Saturday,

243
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: and it's the SEC showdown between Georgia and Auburn. Auburn

244
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: finally gets one of these games at home. It feels

245
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 1: like they're always on the road for these games. This

246
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: is the three thirty CBS game, so you know, all

247
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: eyes will be on it. If you look at this

248
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: Georgia offense and defense every time I see them. And

249
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 1: by the way, they really haven't played anybody this year.

250
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: I mean, they beat Florida. There was a controversial call

251
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: in that game. They hung around, you know, and they

252
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: ended up winning by seven, twenty four to seventeen. But

253
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: other than that, you know, they beat Arkansas State, Notre

254
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: Dame at home by six, Mary State, Vanderbilt, Tennessee, they

255
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: lost to South Carolina, they beat Kentucky twenty one to nothing.

256
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: They beat Missouri without Kelly Bryant, their top receiver. And

257
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 1: what I can coming back to is they're just really

258
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 1: really good and really really solid. But they don't do

259
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: anything explosive on either side of the ball, right, So

260
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 1: there's no explosiveness at all on this offense, and there's

261
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: no havoc on the defense. They just you know, they're

262
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: they're havoc. I think is what their top forty or something.

263
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: But this isn't your typical Georgia defense with a Rokwan

264
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 1: Smith or a star safety that's going to make a

265
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: huge play. And we've been saying that all year. Meanwhile,

266
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: this Auburn team is really solid. They're they're also you know,

267
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: struggle in the passing game. They don't have much explosioness

268
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 1: in the passing game. But I think bow Knicks is

269
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: obviously it's off of a buy is going to be

270
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,920
Speaker 1: more comfortable at home. You know, he's more seasoned now,

271
00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 1: he's got a lot of games under his belt, and

272
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 1: you know, Gus with two weeks to prepare here, I

273
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: think he's going to cook up some things and hit

274
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: some explosive plays because I think this Alburn defense is

275
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: just as good as the Georgia defense, just as good

276
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 1: the Georgia offense. Their offensive line is the best in

277
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: the nation, but all you could argue Auburn's defensive line

278
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 1: is as well. The Georgia offensive overall is probably a

279
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 1: little better. You know, more season quarterback, bow Knicks season,

280
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: the full effect. But if Auburn could just cook up,

281
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: you know, a couple of trick plays, a couple explosive

282
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: plays that you know Guss is gonna come with, I

283
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: think that Auburn could come out and hit this Georgia

284
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,520
Speaker 1: team in the mouth with a couple big plays. I'm

285
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 1: looking at Auburn first half here, because this Georgia team,

286
00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:11,920
Speaker 1: you just hit a couple of big plays and they're

287
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: not built to come back and they're not gonna you know,

288
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: hit eighty yard touchdowns. They're just grinding now. They're really

289
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 1: solid everywhere you look outside of just explosiveness in big

290
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:27,319
Speaker 1: plays on defense, this line is floating between Georgia minus

291
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 1: two and a half and minus three.

292
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 2: What do you see here? Yeah, I think Auburn first half.

293
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 2: Actually money line is actually not a bad play here

294
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 2: because of the I mean, if you listen to the podcast,

295
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 2: you're gonna hear me harp and bitch about this is

296
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,680
Speaker 2: the conservative play calling nature of Georgia in the first half.

297
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:46,120
Speaker 2: You know, I know, Coley's their new offensive coordinator. Cheney

298
00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 2: moved on to Tennessee. That was, you know, pretty much

299
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 2: a Kirby smart move. He wanted some you know, difference

300
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 2: in play calling. But it hasn't been really what I

301
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 2: thought it was gonna be coming into the season. I

302
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 2: know that there were problems with finding targets for Jake

303
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,959
Speaker 2: fromm but I mean, Georgia and the half has been

304
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 2: a completely different team than what we've seen in the

305
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 2: second half. So starting, you know, Malson's eleven in a

306
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 2: lifetime in a bye week in his head coaching career.

307
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 2: That's something to think of. I mean, we're not big

308
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 2: trends players or anything, but I mean Malson proves that

309
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:14,319
Speaker 2: with extra time he can't show up. I think back

310
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 2: to that Music City Bowl when he had motivation and

311
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,520
Speaker 2: he was pissed off and the fan base wanted him

312
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 2: to get the hell out of town. He shows up

313
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 2: to the Music City Bowl and runs Purdue up a

314
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: flag pole. So when Malson's got time and he's motivated,

315
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 2: things happened. Kirby Smart's five and two in his lifetime

316
00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 2: as a coordinator and a head coach going up against

317
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 2: a Malason offense. If you're gonna look at little, small

318
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 2: sample sets like that, the Auburn players are highly motivated

319
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: for this game. Georgia has a wide receiver. I think

320
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 2: he's number two interceptions on the team. George Pickens, he

321
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,920
Speaker 2: was a commit to Auburn for eighteen months. He switched

322
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 2: to Georgia on signing day. Maleson the even went on

323
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 2: record and mentioned about you know a player that switches

324
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 2: on the day of signing day. He was pretty upset

325
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,680
Speaker 2: about it. And some of the players had made friends

326
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 2: with Pickens and they were friends with him too, and

327
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,640
Speaker 2: they were pretty burned by it. So I think Auburn's

328
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 2: going to be hella fired up for this game a

329
00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 2: little bit, maybe more than Georgia, but you know, Georgia

330
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 2: health wise is really kind of where I've been watching

331
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 2: all this week. I thought that I would get a

332
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 2: play in on the app and get some money down

333
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 2: on some sides on this game. But I mean, when

334
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 2: the offensive line loses three players in the middle of

335
00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 2: the game to injury, when they lose their you know,

336
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 2: one of the top centers in the country, and Trey

337
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 2: Hill to injury, and Lawrence Cagor, who is the best

338
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 2: target on the outside, he also got hurt in the game.

339
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 2: They were all clear to practice this week. They all

340
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 2: did practice this week, but I'm still a little nervous

341
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 2: because they all left the game. You know, got ankles

342
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 2: going on with offensive linemen. So it's definitely something to

343
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 2: watch for. And really that leads into what you said,

344
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 2: These defenses are awesome, right, I mean, each defense has

345
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 2: a better advanced stat than the opposing offense, or is

346
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 2: anything I can say about passing success or rushing success.

347
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 2: The defense is better and that goes for both sides.

348
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 2: So going through advanced box scores, I get back to

349
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 2: what I first started with. Auburn's fourth quarter success rate

350
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,440
Speaker 2: has been below the national average. While Kirby smart since

351
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 2: twenty seventeen, we've always known that, Like his third quarter

352
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 2: smp plus rank in twenty seventeen is like best in

353
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 2: the nation, top five on defense, like number one on offense,

354
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 2: and that just hasn't changed. Like every year he has

355
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 2: been a second half head coach, he's always been one

356
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 2: of the best, and it kind of leads into this year.

357
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 2: Conservative play calling in the first half, he opens it

358
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 2: up in the second half. So for me, this is

359
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:18,840
Speaker 2: a game where I don't want to take any game,

360
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,520
Speaker 2: take any position pregame. I kind of want to go

361
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 2: with the flow of it. I expect Georgia to start

362
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: slow and conservative. I don't expect there to be a

363
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 2: lot of points.

364
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: In the first quarter.

365
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 2: I'll be looking for an over end game once the

366
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 2: time comes right. But I think forty is a little

367
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 2: bit too high right now. And then then again, that's

368
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 2: a total that's just so slim. Where a Gus Malson

369
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 2: trick play which you know he's going to run, and

370
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 2: a special teams which Georgia is excellent returning punts and

371
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 2: that forty's toast if you take the under, So I'm

372
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 2: not real comfortable doing that, but I am going to

373
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 2: look for a live over, maybe try to get plus

374
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 2: three on both sides, but I just don't think I'm

375
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 2: going to touch the side because you and I both

376
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 2: have big Georgia futures. This is a must win for

377
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 2: those Georgia futures. So I'm happier just to let the

378
00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: game be conservative in the first half and take an

379
00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 2: over for some time lives.

380
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 1: It's odd because I think that Auburn has more big

381
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,800
Speaker 1: play potential in their defense and there I think by

382
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:07,199
Speaker 1: the end of the season they're hav it will be

383
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 1: more than Georgia. But Georgia has a more season quarterback,

384
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: right who's not as you know, he's not gonna make

385
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 1: He's not as likely to make a mistake as bow

386
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: knicks would bow nixt season then full effect. But they

387
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 1: show you how good the Auburn defense is else use

388
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 1: averaging forty six points per game, and that is what

389
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: they got on the dot against Alabama at Alabama. Well, LSU,

390
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: when they played Auburn at home, only scored twenty three points.

391
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: Now I know that five hundred yards, but they had

392
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: a ton of plays in that game. It was an

393
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: odd game. It was twenty three to twenty. The most

394
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: important thing there is Auburn had LSU to five point

395
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:51,680
Speaker 1: eight yards per play. That is significantly below their season average.

396
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 1: You know, for comparison against Alabama, LSU again, this is

397
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 1: on the road. LSU averaged seven point one yards per play,

398
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 1: so almost a yard and a half more than they

399
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 1: did against Auburn. The Auburn defense is legit. So yeah,

400
00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 1: I think I'm going to be on Auburn in some

401
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 1: form or fashion. I think this look, I have Georgia futures.

402
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 1: I'd love for them to win out, but this team

403
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: is vulnerable. Once against an elite team just lacking explosedness

404
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,360
Speaker 1: and big plays on defense, it's going to come back

405
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,400
Speaker 1: to bite them once they turn it over. And then

406
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,040
Speaker 1: you know, an offense like Auburn has something cooked up

407
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 1: and hits a couple explosive plays. I think it's going

408
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 1: to be the death of them because they're just they're

409
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: not blowing teams out, and look it cost them against

410
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 1: South Carolina. So I think Auburn finds a way to

411
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: pull it out. All right, let's go conference by conference

412
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,120
Speaker 1: to go through. We'll pick out a couple of games

413
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 1: that we like. Let's start in the AAC. Do you

414
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 1: want to hit Notre Dame Navy now or wait till

415
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 1: the Independence.

416
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 2: No, I will just go and say Notre Dame Navy now.

417
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 2: Is like you know, I had a piece out earlier

418
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 2: this week, Navy was the very I was at Circus

419
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 2: Sports at the desk at the Golden Gate downtown in

420
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 2: Las Vegas. It hadn't been put out, hadn't been tweeted

421
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 2: out that the numbers were available, but they were nice

422
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 2: enough to print them out and come bring them to

423
00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 2: me and say, Colin, here you go. We know why

424
00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,679
Speaker 2: are here. And I mean everybody in the in the

425
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 2: book was there for the NFL. And I'm in there

426
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,800
Speaker 2: with a laptop and my numbers, my projections and everything

427
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 2: and my totals, and they were nice enough. Shout out

428
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 2: to Jeffrey Benson for bringing those over to me and saying,

429
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 2: here you go if you're ready to go. And Navy

430
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 2: plus eleven is the first one that poked out to

431
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 2: me and I got up immediately and went to the

432
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 2: counter and threw a dime over. Had no problems with it.

433
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:25,520
Speaker 2: Navy is extremely underrated on defense and in the trench,

434
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,159
Speaker 2: I mean triple option. This Malcolm Perry that I mean,

435
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 2: Malcolm Perry was one of our favorite things to talk

436
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 2: about two years ago, right, Malcolm Perry was the greatest

437
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 2: thing ever, and then he let us down last year.

438
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:35,880
Speaker 2: And now he's back, not only just throwing the ball,

439
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 2: running the ball. Navy is everything that we can expect

440
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 2: him to be as a dynamic offense. But really the

441
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 2: defense is not getting enough credit for how great they've

442
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 2: been in the trench. All of the advanced stats show it.

443
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 2: You know, I've got a power rate it down. So

444
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 2: I definitely like Navy in the spot. And if you

445
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 2: want to get it, I think now's the time to

446
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 2: get it, because this is a prime opportunity for Navy

447
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,320
Speaker 2: to really make a statement. Already ranked in the College

448
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 2: Football Playoff rankings, I mean, the Navy looks fantastic. I

449
00:19:58,480 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 2: think they might be the best team in the AC

450
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 2: and I think they're going to take a major jump here.

451
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 2: I think they could beat Notre Dame and they would

452
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 2: take a major jump. And even there could be some

453
00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 2: talking heads about Navy playing in the Cotton Bowl, which

454
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 2: would be just an awesome thing to say.

455
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, the one thing that gives me pause is, look,

456
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,280
Speaker 1: Navy's defense has been it's probably the most improved unit

457
00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,320
Speaker 1: in the country, and they had a new coordinator there.

458
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 1: They used to play ben don't break. Now they're playing

459
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: a very aggressive style of defense. But the one thing

460
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: that gives me pause, I mean, if you do look

461
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: at Navy's schedule, they've played a bunch of clowns, and

462
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: you know, when they've played a bunch of clowns, they've

463
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: shut them down, you know, So my concern is their

464
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 1: past defense. I do think they're gonna be able to

465
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: move the ball on the ground, and a triple option

466
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: team catching over a touchdown is always intriguing to me.

467
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 1: But and you know, don't sleep in the loss of

468
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: Julia Nakuara for Notre Dame. That hurts on their defensive line.

469
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: I do want to still try and dig in is

470
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,040
Speaker 1: into is Notre Dame going to be able to just

471
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 1: hit a ton of explosive plays down the field, because

472
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: that's the one thing that I still don't believe in

473
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 1: with this Navy team, because the two teams that they

474
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: played that ken hit explosive plays down the field. Did

475
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 1: just that. Secondary is my main concern against the Notre

476
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: Dame athletes. That is what I need to look into.

477
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,120
Speaker 2: Navy is number one in the country in red zone

478
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 2: touchdown scoring. They get into the twenty, they're getting six,

479
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,959
Speaker 2: and I mean that's tremendous. If you're trying to look

480
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,439
Speaker 2: at a over or if you're trying to look at

481
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,600
Speaker 2: a Navy cover. They are not settling for field goals ever.

482
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 2: And then I mean number one of the country is fantastic.

483
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: All right, Let's move on in the AAC and talk

484
00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 1: two lane Temple. This line's risen. It's open to three

485
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 1: three and a half, it's up to six over under

486
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 1: his drop from fifty five and a half to fifty

487
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 1: four and a half. We talk about this all the time.

488
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,400
Speaker 1: Temple just covers. It doesn't matter who's the coach, who's

489
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: the quarterback, what their stats say, they just always consistently cover.

490
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: It is crazy. I mean, if you look back the

491
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 1: last fifteen years, they've been the most profitable dog. They're

492
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: a home dog here two six and three teams. What

493
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,359
Speaker 1: are you seeing here between two lane and Temple? Is there?

494
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,240
Speaker 1: Does this line going up too much? Is there no

495
00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: value on the owls, are you're gonna be tweeting algifs

496
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 1: for a noon kick again.

497
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,360
Speaker 2: I mean, I think the line's gone up too much.

498
00:21:57,400 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 2: And I'm supposed to back Temple here because if you

499
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 2: look at two lane history, you know, it shows that

500
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 2: they're not that great on the road winning games, and

501
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 2: Temple's excellent at home, especially in a day game like this.

502
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 2: But I think there's just too much in the advanced

503
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 2: status that kind of throw me in two laneses way.

504
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, two lanes offense is top ten

505
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 2: and so many offensive categories where Temple's d is just

506
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 2: ranking inside the top twenty five. I mean, justin McMillan

507
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 2: is a force this year. You look at them their

508
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 2: eleventh and rushing success rate, their seventeenth and rushing explosiveness,

509
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 2: and they're thirty second in passing success and that's all McMillan.

510
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 2: I mean, he's a true dual threat. And if you

511
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:33,719
Speaker 2: look at Temple, you know they've had problems against teams

512
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 2: that you know, have been able to get it down

513
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 2: the field. The teams that have been able to throw

514
00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 2: it down the field SMU, Memphis, Central Florida, they all

515
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:42,440
Speaker 2: had big success in the air against Temple and were

516
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,359
Speaker 2: able to beat them. I think the number has gotten

517
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 2: too high because of the value of what I projected

518
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 2: it at. Now that it's gone way past my projection

519
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,239
Speaker 2: of thirteen, I'm going to come around on the other

520
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 2: side and hopefully I can middle.

521
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: Donovan Jennings, which is their left tackle, is a really

522
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 1: important piece and with you know, you saw as soon

523
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,880
Speaker 1: as he went out against Temple, Temple just abused him,

524
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 1: so him being back is huge. All right, let's move

525
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 1: on to the acc We have Clemson thirty four and

526
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 1: a half thirty four point favorites against wake Forest and

527
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,440
Speaker 1: you know, one of the big you know, the big

528
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: pieces of news here with wake Forest, who cannot run

529
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: the ball worth a lick and they're not gonna be

530
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,359
Speaker 1: able to run the ball against Clemson is you know,

531
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,840
Speaker 1: Scottie Washington is questionable. But they lost their star receiver

532
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: Sarah for the year, so now their passing offense could

533
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,280
Speaker 1: be potentially limited. What are you seeing here in this matchup?

534
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean this number is overinflated. Of course, it's

535
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 2: like plan. You know, you have to pay at Clemson

536
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 2: tax every time you want to play them, you know,

537
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 2: And I have a total set at sixty six, so

538
00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 2: possible over But the question is is what will wakes

539
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:52,320
Speaker 2: passing attack be able to do against Clemson's defense. Clemson's

540
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 2: third and defensive passing success rate, So this is a

541
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 2: great test, you know, as great as the Clemson can

542
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 2: get out of the acc as far as going up

543
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 2: against a successful passing attack. You know, in Wake is

544
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 2: twenty second in passing success and their tenth and sacarate allowed,

545
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:09,200
Speaker 2: so they're not allowing anybody to get to the quarterback.

546
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:10,919
Speaker 2: Wake's able to throw the ball down the field, so

547
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 2: it'll be a good test for Clemson's defense. This is

548
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,680
Speaker 2: another great matchup for Trevor Lawrence to get deep. Wake

549
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 2: is one hundred and seventh and pass explosiveness allowed. Trevor's

550
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 2: gonna be able to get you know, as many throwing

551
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 2: tds he wants before he takes a seat. So I'm

552
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 2: looking for an over here. But it really depends on

553
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 2: Wake's passing success. That's the decision between the now, the

554
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:32,200
Speaker 2: time we're recording until when kickoff happens. Do I think

555
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 2: that Wake can get some points up on the board

556
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,919
Speaker 2: throwing the ball against his Clemson defense. This Clemson defense,

557
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,800
Speaker 2: I love them more than I think any other defense

558
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,360
Speaker 2: in the nation. And I'm going to be backing these

559
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,119
Speaker 2: guys in college football playoff. I'm almost one hundred percent sure.

560
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 2: So if I think wake can get some points up,

561
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 2: that's the reason I'll take an over.

562
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: I would err on the side of question. I mean

563
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: I would it's tough with wake farest. I mean it

564
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 1: looks like I'm looking here, Scotty Washington's actually gonna be

565
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,000
Speaker 1: out and he has seven touchdowns, the second on the team.

566
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 1: First on the team is Sirop out for the year,

567
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 1: so they're not gonna have their top two receivers and

568
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 1: sarat is one of five receivers in the country with

569
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: over one thousand receiving yards, so they don't have both

570
00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 1: of them. They can't run it. It could be a

571
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: long day for Wake Forest. And what we saw last week,

572
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 1: Dabo apparently just wants he wants to run off the

573
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 1: score now against NC State, you know, running hurry up

574
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: to get an extra touchdown in that was brutal. Rp

575
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: anyone who bet that second half under. I'm probably back

576
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 1: on the two, but this is a joke. Their schedule

577
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,679
Speaker 1: another thirty four and a half point favorite, all right,

578
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,359
Speaker 1: elsewhere in the ACC Again, it's really interesting to me,

579
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 1: and it just smells, right, is Georgia Tech catching sex?

580
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 1: And one I have to give a lot of credit

581
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,719
Speaker 1: to Jeff Collins, right, So he came in in probably

582
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 1: the toughest chore of any college football coach I've seen

583
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: in a long long time, and that's transitioning a team

584
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 1: with from an optriple option to a spread attack. With

585
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 1: all triple option personnel, they're not suited to this spread offense.

586
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: It was ugly early on they lost to the Citadel.

587
00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 1: They scored two points versus Temple. But David play saying

588
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 1: better lately and obviously they're getting used to this new

589
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:07,560
Speaker 1: scheme and they're still fighting for Jeff Collins, which is

590
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 1: a lot of credit to him. You know, look, they

591
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:11,720
Speaker 1: won at Miami. There was a bunch of flukes, but

592
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: they still won at Miami. We've seen what Miami's done

593
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,680
Speaker 1: the past two weeks. And then last week they played

594
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: Uva really tough. They lost thirty three to twenty eight

595
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 1: in Charlottesville. So this team is still fighting. And you know,

596
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: they had a quarterback change and you know they went

597
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: with this kid Graham, who actually is I think committed

598
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: to or was at Virginia Tech at one point, and

599
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: you know, they're averaging I think twenty two twenty three

600
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: points with him, we're averaging only thirteen with that before

601
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 1: he took over the starting job. So their offense is

602
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 1: getting a little better, their defense is still fighting, their

603
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: offense is still very limited, and Vautech's also playing a

604
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: lot better of late as well. And they control their

605
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 1: own destiny in the ACC Coastal. That's insane. Vau Tech,

606
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,560
Speaker 1: this team that we were all laughing at geting ran

607
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,280
Speaker 1: out of the building against Duke at home earlier this year.

608
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: The ACC is crazy. Number One, what do you make Clemson,

609
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 1: va Tech and the ACC championship if that happens? Number two,

610
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:05,120
Speaker 1: what do you think of this game?

611
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 2: What is it like to have a coach have two

612
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 2: wins and have every single player completely focused, committed, executing

613
00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 2: and playing hard. I don't know what that's like because

614
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,320
Speaker 2: I have a two win team myself. That's the difference

615
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 2: between Gorgia Tech and Arkansas right now. So these guys

616
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 2: at Georgia Tech are responding to Jeff Collins. They're playing

617
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:24,639
Speaker 2: as hard as they can. It's one of the biggest

618
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 2: schematic transitions that a team could ever go through on

619
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 2: both sides of the ball. So Georgia Tech is going

620
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 2: to be good. I don't know if we hit their

621
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 2: over team total over next year, but you know, I

622
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,280
Speaker 2: mean it's definitely something we're going to keep our eyes on,

623
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,639
Speaker 2: especially through spring practice. But in this game, I mean,

624
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 2: Virginia Tech's on a bit of a heater themselves. They've

625
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 2: covered four their last five. They limited Jamie Newton, the

626
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 2: quarterback for Wake. There's just a few explosive passes and

627
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:49,680
Speaker 2: a Hoky's victory there, and so you know, Georgie Tech

628
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 2: is still pretty terrible through the air. You can pinpoint

629
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 2: the fact they're going to run the ball, you know,

630
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 2: and they're not even a very successful running group, but

631
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 2: they have been able to break off a couple of

632
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 2: explosive plays. My number is spot on to write where

633
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 2: the market is, so I may throw a Virginia Tech

634
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,280
Speaker 2: and a couple of moneyline parlays. I'm not sure if

635
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 2: Georgia Tech has it been to actually win the game,

636
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 2: although they have thrown up an upset this year. If

637
00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,320
Speaker 2: I had to put Virginia Tech my favorite thing here

638
00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,560
Speaker 2: against Clemson, I would have a thirty one point spread

639
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 2: on a neutral field for the ACC championship game.

640
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,320
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Clemson's gonna be thirty one point favors

641
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: every game of the year. Yeah. I think Georgia Tech

642
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: might pull off a stunner here. It just smells right

643
00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 1: that team is still fighting and just improving every week.

644
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 1: And vas Tech, I know they they've always had problems

645
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 1: with the triple option, so this isn't a triple option

646
00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech. But this is a place they generally don't

647
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 1: play well, and Georgia Tech always seems to get up

648
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: for all. Right, let's move on to the Big twelve

649
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 1: and talk Texas Iowa State. The first thing that jumps

650
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: out is, you know, Herman is a dog. You always

651
00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: got to talk about it. I think he's fourteen and

652
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:53,520
Speaker 1: fourteen or fifteen and three against the spread as a dog,

653
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: and Matt Campbell was also great against the spread as

654
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: a dog. Is not that great as a favorite. One

655
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 1: thing to keep in mind here, it's tough when you

656
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 1: look at Texas. Some of their defensive numbers are really

657
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,760
Speaker 1: really ugly, but they are getting healthier on the defensive side.

658
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 1: Although Jalen Green, one of their starters is out for

659
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 1: the first half or targeting suspension, which is something to note.

660
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:13,280
Speaker 1: Some of their receivers are banged up with something to

661
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: keep an eye on. They're questionable. But this line is

662
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: hanging right around seven. I was State minus seven here.

663
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 1: What do you see?

664
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I mean I projected minus six point seven.

665
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 2: So it's pretty much spot on here. But I think

666
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 2: that there's one big thing in the advanced stats that

667
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 2: really sticks out more than anything. So you know, Rock

668
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 2: Party's eleventh and passing success rate. Iowa State is able

669
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 2: to get the ball through the air. That's kind of

670
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 2: been their mission objective this year. And Texas defense is

671
00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty fourth defensively in passing success rate,

672
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 2: one of the worst in the nation. I mean, this

673
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 2: is something we've known all year, started with LSU. So

674
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,920
Speaker 2: I think Texas is going to have some major issues

675
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 2: here dealing with Brock Party and the Iway State defense

676
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 2: has been good against the run. I mean they're twenty

677
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 2: ninth and stuff rate, their top fifty in line yards

678
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 2: and then all the other advanced metrics that are on

679
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 2: football outside and that's really how you stop Texas. Kansas

680
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,600
Speaker 2: State wasn't too successful in that. I know that they

681
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 2: got a fourteen oh lead, but then the rest of

682
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 2: the game was all Texas on the ground. But Iowa

683
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 2: State's good enough in the trench in the front seven

684
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 2: to stop to stop that. So both these teams are

685
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,400
Speaker 2: great at scoring in the red zone, but they rate

686
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 2: ninety eight or worse an opponent red zone scoring percentage.

687
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 2: So if you're gonna tell me both offenses are going

688
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 2: to convert against defenses it can't stop people from scoring,

689
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 2: then I think I'm gonna take Iowa State. And I

690
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 2: like the points in this.

691
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 1: Game fair enough. I mean, i Aowa stayed. Look, they're

692
00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 1: five and four and they're a seven point favorite at

693
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,800
Speaker 1: home against a Texas team that was in the top ten,

694
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: and we give a top ten credit to LSU. They

695
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 1: have to be one of the best five and four teams,

696
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 1: especially in the Big twelve, that we've seen in a

697
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 1: long time. Yeah, I think the line is about right,

698
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: although I would lean towards Texas just because they're getting healthier.

699
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: I might look at them in the second half when

700
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 1: you get green back and they'll see how the game's

701
00:30:53,240 --> 00:30:56,120
Speaker 1: playing out. I don't see a ton of value either way. Yeah,

702
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: I think it should be high scoring as well. So

703
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: from a total perspective, I think it's over or nothing.

704
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,440

715
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: want to mention with Kansas Okie Light and or TCU

716
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: Texas Tech. I think Okie State seventeen ish point favorite

717
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 1: at home against Kansas. Pray for the Kansas run defense

718
00:31:47,840 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: against Oklahoma State. And then TCU I think opened as

719
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 1: a dog and is out to a three point favorite.

720
00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: What do you see in either one of those games

721
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: that you want to mention?

722
00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, the pointspread is right for Kansas Oklahoma State. I

723
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 2: just I want to say that if you were following,

724
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 2: you know the action networking us back in you know,

725
00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 2: back in the spring, I was getting dropping money as

726
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,680
Speaker 2: much as I could in New Jersey and Nevada on

727
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 2: over five and a half, over six, over six and

728
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,240
Speaker 2: a half on Oklahoma State. So this is a monster

729
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 2: game if you're holding a Pokes season win total over

730
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 2: so I'd say sit back and enjoy that. I do

731
00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 2: kind of project this game to go under about ten

732
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 2: points under what the current number is, so there may

733
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 2: be a play on that. I don't have much on

734
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 2: TCU tex attack. The CCU team has just got awful

735
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:31,400
Speaker 2: on offense. Every week to TCU plays, it's just a struggle.

736
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,600
Speaker 1: Yep. All right, let's move on to the Big ten

737
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: and let's talk Indiana Penn State. Penn State is a

738
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:42,080
Speaker 1: fourteen fourteen and a half point favorite at home in

739
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 1: Happy Valley against Indiana, who's ranked for the first time

740
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 1: since nineteen ninety three. I believe there's seven and two.

741
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: You know, Indiana, I don't think is you know, is

742
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 1: nowhere close to as explosive orponent of a passing offense

743
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,239
Speaker 1: as Minnesota was. And we saw Minnesota exploit you know,

744
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:02,400
Speaker 1: some weaknesses in the state secondary, but Penn State is

745
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,520
Speaker 1: their front seven is still excellent. You still can't run

746
00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 1: on them. I think they're number one in the country

747
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 1: and rushing success rate. But Pennix or Poenix I was

748
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 1: calling Poenix is out for the year. Peyton Ramsey is

749
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: now taking over. And the one thing that I keep

750
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 1: coming back to is, yeah, Indiana's seven to two, Yes

751
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,000
Speaker 1: they're ranked, but who have they beat? And the answer

752
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: is nobody. I mean nobody at all. I mean, this

753
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,719
Speaker 1: is your typical Indiana team. I mean, look, this is

754
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 1: their schedule. They start off the year by beating Ball State,

755
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 1: and then they beat Eastern Illinois and then they lost

756
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,560
Speaker 1: fifty one to tend to Ohio State. Then they beat Connecticut,

757
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: you know, and then they lost to Sparty, gave up

758
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 1: forty Sparty, you know. Then they beat Rutgers, and then

759
00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: they beat Maryland, who's had a backup quarterback in by

760
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: one possession, and then they beat Nebraska by one possession

761
00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 1: with a backup quarterback in. Yes, both of them are

762
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: on the road. And then they beat Northwestern. So there's

763
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 1: seven wins or nothing like. It's nothing offenses and backup quarterbacks.

764
00:33:55,880 --> 00:34:00,200
Speaker 1: So this defense I still think is very, very very

765
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: vulnerable against elite offenses. Penn State loves blowing out teams

766
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: that they are better then, and they are clearly better

767
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:10,200
Speaker 1: than Indiana. Franklin is an amazing against the spread coaches

768
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 1: a favorite. The only question I have here, you know,

769
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,319
Speaker 1: Number one, I wouldn't play it over fourteen. If it

770
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,200
Speaker 1: was fourteen or thirteen and five, I was looking at

771
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: Penn State. The only question was a terrible spot because

772
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: Penn State, you know, they had college fable playoff hopes

773
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 1: and then they were undefeated, and then you know, they

774
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 1: lose last week at Minnesota. So they come back here

775
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,439
Speaker 1: to play Indiana, you know, and you know next week,

776
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: I mean, then they have I believe they have. The

777
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 1: next week they have Ohio State. Throughout Ohio State, so

778
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 1: this is Sandwich City. They might be completely flat after

779
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: losing that game, come out a little sloppy. That's my

780
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: main concern here. But I don't think they can compete here.

781
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,439
Speaker 1: But the spot's bad for Penn State. What do you think?

782
00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,760
Speaker 2: Yeah? Absolutely, I mean the way to beat Penn State

783
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,399
Speaker 2: is to go over the top of the defense. That's

784
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 2: what Minnesota was able to get. Don Tanner Morgan was

785
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,239
Speaker 2: able to throw for three hundred and thirty nine yards

786
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 2: against them, you know, and that's not what Indiana passing

787
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 2: game is now. They're highly successful, whether it's Poenix or

788
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 2: Rams either they're both able to complete a five yard

789
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,800
Speaker 2: pass better than anybody in the nation their thirteenth and

790
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,399
Speaker 2: passing success rate, but they're one hundred and twelfth in explosiveness.

791
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 2: I know the theory was that we think that Penn

792
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 2: State has scripted plays. Still feel that that's what happened

793
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 2: last week. You know, they were successful. The game started

794
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 2: out interception, touchdown, field goal, interception. I know it started

795
00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,160
Speaker 2: off with an interception, but they came right back, had

796
00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 2: a touchdown, they drove down the field, had a field goal,

797
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 2: and then they had another interception. They were able to

798
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 2: score ten points in the first quarter, and they only

799
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 2: scored sixteen the rest of the game. This kind of

800
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 2: fits into a mold where we think that the first

801
00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 2: three or four drives are scripted for Sean Clifford, and

802
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:35,200
Speaker 2: then the rest of the game is just kind of

803
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 2: throws shit against the wall, let's see what sticks. So

804
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,319
Speaker 2: I think in this game where Indiana just doesn't have

805
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 2: a way to get down the field fast, I think

806
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 2: I'll look for a Penn State first half again. Full

807
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 2: game number I think is right where it should be.

808
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to Michigan Michigan State, and

809
00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,520
Speaker 1: I'm just warning everyone out there, I might have to

810
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 1: play Michigan State at fourteen. I think they're ten to

811
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 1: one against the spread in the last eleven times they've

812
00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: played Michigan in this rivalry game. It just feels like

813
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,319
Speaker 1: this game will be seven teen, fourteen, twenty. It'll be

814
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:04,480
Speaker 1: low scoring in close in this rivalry game. I mean,

815
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,680
Speaker 1: Michigan State up twenty eight to three against Illinois. I

816
00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 1: can't win a bet with them three and seven on

817
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 1: the year. Michigan stakimes. It includes totals to They torture

818
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: me every week. But at fourteen, ought to take it.

819
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,880
Speaker 1: It was Florida. There was plus fourteen minus one fifteen

820
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 1: earlier and I didn't take it. But I guess so

821
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,680
Speaker 1: flat fourteen, I probably will over under forty four and

822
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 1: a half. It's gonna be cold here in Ann Arbor.

823
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 1: You know the Michigan State defense, it's it's excellent still there.

824
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 1: Advanced metrics are great. The offense is a nightmare. You know,

825
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 1: the Michigan offense is starting to figure it out, but

826
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 1: they're still pretty average overall Michigan States due to just

827
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 1: get a couple breaks. Eventually, I think I ought to

828
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: play it at fourteen in this rivalry game. And you know,

829
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,319
Speaker 1: after Michigan States on was four straight from rank to

830
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,200
Speaker 1: four and five. What do you see here?

831
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean just on the total alone at forty

832
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: four and a half, I mean a point spread of

833
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:57,000
Speaker 2: fourteen is just too much. And you know, but then

834
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 2: I mean if you just did blind resume and didn't

835
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 2: look at the team names. But then if you pull

836
00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 2: back the curtain, you see hardballs at home and what

837
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,240
Speaker 2: Michigan State, what happened to them last week in Illinois?

838
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:07,919
Speaker 2: Illinois post game win EXPECTANCYE was fourteen percent. They did

839
00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:11,560
Speaker 2: everything to not win that game and somehow won that game.

840
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,160
Speaker 2: That was one of the craziest outcomes in the fourth

841
00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 2: quarter that I think I've ever seen. So if you're

842
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 2: gonna turn around and play Michigan State, I think you

843
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 2: will get a fourteen. It looks like the market is

844
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 2: steaming that way. It should touch it there before. Plenty

845
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,840
Speaker 2: of math guys, plenty of sharp guys that I've heard from,

846
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:28,719
Speaker 2: are going to be one to back the Spartans when

847
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,799
Speaker 2: it comes to two touchdowns. So I mean, for me,

848
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:32,720
Speaker 2: it's going to be in no play. I just cannot.

849
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 2: I cannot get on to Michigan State and go through

850
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 2: this again. I think I've lost too much on them

851
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:36,680
Speaker 2: this year.

852
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,040
Speaker 1: I'll have my clown math go on if it got

853
00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:42,719
Speaker 1: to fourteen with Gus calling that game potentially, so you

854
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: know you have the Gus factor, don't make it that's

855
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:46,640
Speaker 1: gonna be worth a couple points for the dog. Kidding,

856
00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 1: but all right, let's talk. We have to mention before

857
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:51,120
Speaker 1: we get to Minnesota. I we have to talk Ohio

858
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 1: State Rutgers. Just very quickly here fifty two and a

859
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 1: half point favorites, well, I say the fifty two and

860
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 1: a half point road favorite at Rutgers. The funny thing

861
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,560
Speaker 1: is if you look going to chart, you know, we

862
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,360
Speaker 1: have these charts that of all of our advanced stats.

863
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: You know, the Ohio State side is all green offense

864
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 1: and defense all the way down, and Rutgers is all

865
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 1: read all the way down. I mean, obviously it's gonna

866
00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,080
Speaker 1: I don't know how you bet this game. You know

867
00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 1: it's gonna it's gonna come down to like when does

868
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,840
Speaker 1: Ohio State pull their starters is Ohio State. You know, fumble, muffle,

869
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: punt and Rutgers gets a loop touchdown. I mean when

870
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: it spreads is high. It's crazy. But the one thing

871
00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 1: I do want to mention with Ohio State where there

872
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: are two week areas, and I mentioned this earlier there,

873
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,920
Speaker 1: it's their offensive line, you know, and giving up pressure.

874
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,160
Speaker 1: They're ninety eighth in Sacary and I'm talking for college

875
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 1: wall playoff things that keep in mind they're ninety eighth

876
00:38:37,600 --> 00:38:40,960
Speaker 1: in Sacary and then rush explosiveness. They're still giving up

877
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,000
Speaker 1: big runs and so those are the only two things

878
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 1: where they're not really elite. Anyway, you can bet this game.

879
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 2: I chuckle at this game because I was with the

880
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,359
Speaker 2: person I was with the oddsmager at Circa that put

881
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,879
Speaker 2: this number up, and we had a discussion about what

882
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 2: the points spread should be and what the total should be,

883
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 2: and I said, listen, I've got to project at the

884
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 2: fifty two and a half, and I think that you've

885
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 2: just got to account for Rutgers getting a safety, right,

886
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:05,680
Speaker 2: I think the total should be fifty four and a half.

887
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 2: I know that sounds crazy, but I'm looking at this

888
00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,439
Speaker 2: and you know, Circa opened it up at fifty five

889
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 2: for the total, fifteen and a half for the spread.

890
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 2: So I mean you're basically this is a yes no

891
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 2: bet on whether Rutgers will score. I'm not sure that

892
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,960
Speaker 2: they will. I wouldn't be surprised if their shutout. They've

893
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,680
Speaker 2: been shut out by lesser Big ten teams. I mean,

894
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,840
Speaker 2: if you're gonna bet on the side, I'm guessing a

895
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 2: key number is fifty two if you're going to go

896
00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 2: by divisions of touchdown numbers here, so you would definitely

897
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 2: want to get the fifty three that's out there. I

898
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,919
Speaker 2: don't I don't know how you bet this. I might

899
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,319
Speaker 2: take an under for fun, you know, but I don't know.

900
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 2: Other than that, I don't know. I'm not going to

901
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:38,840
Speaker 2: touch this.

902
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, thank you. All right, let's get to Minnesota Iowa.

903
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:44,200
Speaker 1: Minnesota obviously off that huge win, maybe one of their

904
00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 1: biggest wins in program history, at least in the last

905
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:49,799
Speaker 1: few decades. They're going to Isoli. I was a three

906
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 1: point favorite here. I can just tell you the one

907
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,959
Speaker 1: thing I learned from Minnesota last week is their offense

908
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: is excellent. We said that Bateman Johnson on the outside,

909
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: Morgan was excellent, again a quarterback completing ninety percent of

910
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,719
Speaker 1: his passes. But look, the one thing that I saw

911
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: is that Minnesota defense is bad. That shows up in

912
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,160
Speaker 1: some of the advanced matches are one hundred outside they're

913
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty first and power success rate one

914
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,760
Speaker 1: hundred and fourteenth and stuff. Right, their secondary is talented.

915
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:15,839
Speaker 1: You know, they had they had some takeaways last week

916
00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,400
Speaker 1: and they benefited from me to maybe potential you know,

917
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 1: calls that went their favor on the past interference and

918
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,879
Speaker 1: I was on Minnesota. But they're you know, they do

919
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 1: have good players in that secondary, including Antoine Winfield junior,

920
00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 1: but they're up front, they are very vulnerable. So I

921
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: think Iowa can you know, really control the line of

922
00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: scrimmage when they have the ball, they can pound the rock,

923
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,959
Speaker 1: control it. I mean, this is such a letdown spot

924
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: for Minnesota. I mean I was going to win this game.

925
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: I moneyline parlayed them with Oklahoma because it could be

926
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 1: ugly in a typical Iowa game, and they win by

927
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:47,279
Speaker 1: two or one. So I felt more comfortable just throwing

928
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,719
Speaker 1: them in a money online parlay. What do you see

929
00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 1: here in Iowa? Minnesota?

930
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did the same thing I'm moneyline parlay at Iowa.

931
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 2: If I get around to recording another round robin video tonight,

932
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 2: I'm sure Iowa will be what I call a boat anchor,

933
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 2: a low favorite that I think absolutely has a shot

934
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 2: of winning and supporting the rest of the teams in

935
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 2: the round robin. As you and I are recording this

936
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,320
Speaker 2: right now, a couple of the Sharper books that you

937
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 2: and I know have moved to three and a half.

938
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 2: So I think that tells you you know, exactly where

939
00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 2: the bigger money's coming in, or at least where the

940
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 2: respected money's coming in. You know, Iowa's defensive passing success

941
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 2: rate is twenty second. That's just you know, they're better

942
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 2: at limiting explosiveness than Penn State was, and AJT Penenza

943
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 2: is going to have a heck of a time getting

944
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,920
Speaker 2: the Tanner Morgan. Iowa's first in the country and limiting

945
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:33,040
Speaker 2: opponent rush explosiveness, and Minnesota still has an offensive line

946
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 2: sack rate rank of one hundred and seconds. So I

947
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 2: just there's a lot of things in the advanced status

948
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,480
Speaker 2: that you mentioned that just say that Iowa is going

949
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,360
Speaker 2: to be able to win this game. And I go

950
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 2: back to the fact that we didn't trust Penn State.

951
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 2: Minnesota hadn't played anybody. Minnesota had this one huge advantage

952
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,400
Speaker 2: of explosive passing. They were able to take advantage of

953
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 2: Penn State. You know, Iowa here is good. I wish

954
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:53,800
Speaker 2: this game was at night with Kennick, but it'd probably

955
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 2: be bumped up a point. But I took Iowa money

956
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,480
Speaker 2: line may continue to do it. This is the biggest

957
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,879
Speaker 2: hangover in Minnesota to program history. They win this game,

958
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 2: I'd actually would be extremely impressed. I'm a little you know,

959
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 2: you know, I give them credit for what they did

960
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 2: against Penn State at home, but you could pick yourself

961
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,359
Speaker 2: up at it as a nine to zero team. This team,

962
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,399
Speaker 2: this time late in the season, go to a place

963
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:16,360
Speaker 2: like Kennick and win this ball game. I'll really be impressed.

964
00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:18,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, don't forget all the games at Minnesota barely

965
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:20,680
Speaker 1: won earlier in the year. They've been fortunate this year.

966
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:22,479
Speaker 1: You know, they were even out game by Penn State.

967
00:42:23,080 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to the Conference USA quickly here,

968
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: and we got to get a shout out for UTEP.

969
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 2: We're talking minor nation out in the West Texas town

970
00:42:34,200 --> 00:42:35,480
Speaker 2: of lpast.

971
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 1: So picks up it's up Minor Nation against UAB. UTEP

972
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:45,239
Speaker 1: is catching seventeen against UAB and their backup quarterback. You

973
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 1: back in the minors here.

974
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,479
Speaker 2: Minor Nation, this is your week. And now I haven't

975
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 2: exactly laid any money yet, but Tyler Johnson is confirmed

976
00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 2: he will sit this game. He still has a spring knee,

977
00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 2: so you're gonna get some extremely inefficient offensive play from UAB.

978
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,480
Speaker 2: UAB has lost too straight. They haven't covered against Tennessee

979
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,520
Speaker 2: and Southern miss. Tyler Johnson's a huge part of that offense.

980
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 2: And a birdie sent me a text earlier this week

981
00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 2: and said Bill Clark has been contacted about the Arkansas job,

982
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 2: So we don't know exactly, you know, if he's entertaining

983
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,200
Speaker 2: at or shot it down. I don't know the status

984
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,719
Speaker 2: of that news, but you know, I don't know where

985
00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 2: the focus of the UAB team is without their leader quarterback.

986
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 2: And Bill Clark, who I have respect for, is one

987
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 2: of the best group of five coaches. I wonder if

988
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,399
Speaker 2: what's going on up, you know, up in his brain.

989
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,040
Speaker 2: So no, it's a stay away and you may see

990
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 2: a UTEP play come out of me.

991
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: Oh boy, all right, we have to touch on our

992
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 1: independent game. We already said Navy, we already talked about

993
00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 1: Navy Notre Dame. But we also have U Mass U

994
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 1: Mass against Northwestern.

995
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 2: Iihilate it.

996
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 1: I laid thirty nine and a half with Northwestern. I

997
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,920
Speaker 1: can't believe it. A team that can barely score ten points,

998
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:51,840
Speaker 1: but I don't care U Mass. Is this that bad deadline?

999
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,280
Speaker 1: I think you make it around forty If I wanted

1000
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,839
Speaker 1: to try and calculate what the line would be, I'd

1001
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 1: probably make it around forty two. But I don't come

1002
00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,799
Speaker 1: up with a ballpark ermer ad to touchdown. It's work.

1003
00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 1: It works every week at two to three touchdowns. Northwestern

1004
00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 1: should by the way UMass is getting absolutely they're getting

1005
00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: their doors blown off every week. And they don't play anybody.

1006
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:13,520
Speaker 1: They don't play any good defenses. Literally. They played Rutgers

1007
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,440
Speaker 1: that gave up forty eight and you know, they only

1008
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,840
Speaker 1: scored twenty one. They played Southern Illinois gave up forty

1009
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:21,279
Speaker 1: five and only scored twenty. They played Charlotte and only

1010
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 1: scored seventeen and gave up fifty two. They played Coastal Carolina,

1011
00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,879
Speaker 1: gave up sixty two, only scored twenty eight. These are

1012
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 1: awful defenses. You know, they held Aker to twenty nine.

1013
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: A could scored twenty nine points. Ackron went seventeen quarters

1014
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: out of touchdown. Recently, you know they played Florida International

1015
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 1: and didn't score. They lost forty four to nothing. Florida

1016
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 1: International as a I mean, Northwestern has a much better defensive.

1017
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 1: Florida and National LA Tech put up sixty nine on them,

1018
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: nice and then Connecticut put up fifty six on them.

1019
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 1: So look, this is the best defense by far that

1020
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:52,600
Speaker 1: U MESS has played. Northwestern is gonna take out all

1021
00:44:52,600 --> 00:44:56,560
Speaker 1: their frustrations. Their big ten athletes are gonna score every possession.

1022
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 1: It's that easy against U MASS. And this I don't

1023
00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,560
Speaker 1: see ums scoring. I really don't. I think it's either

1024
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,440
Speaker 1: forty nine or fifty six nothing Northwestern. You just fade

1025
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,040
Speaker 1: this UMAs team and unless there's flukes, they're not scoring.

1026
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 2: I will say the total of fifty eight opener of

1027
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,879
Speaker 2: fifty eight has trickled down to fifty six. So there

1028
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 2: is money guessing that UMass is not going to score

1029
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:20,520
Speaker 2: a point and that Northwestern will at least stay shy

1030
00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 2: of what eight touchdowns? Good lord, it's ridiculous.

1031
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 1: The only thing UMass does well, is they like, break

1032
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 1: a couple of runs, that's it. That's your only hope.

1033
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 1: And they don't give up. They don't give up sacks

1034
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 1: to joke, everything else. There one hundred and thirtieth in

1035
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:35,759
Speaker 1: the nation and it's the worst team we've ever seen.

1036
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 1: Keep seeing people bet u Mass is it aligns too high?

1037
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,640
Speaker 1: It's not. We've some found the floor for this shitty team.

1038
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:43,200
Speaker 1: Trucked every week. The only team they've covered against is

1039
00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:45,440
Speaker 1: the Akron who hasn't used. The first team ever to

1040
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,000
Speaker 1: go oh in ten against the spread.

1041
00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:48,839
Speaker 2: Go go check the action, never power rings. I think

1042
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 2: we would have Ohio State seventy four point favorites on

1043
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:52,720
Speaker 2: a neutral.

1044
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:54,799
Speaker 1: All Right, we got to get Mac talk in. I'm

1045
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:56,319
Speaker 1: not talking about it because I'm not betting this game.

1046
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 1: Central Michigan ball State tell me something because I don't care.

1047
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 2: A huge game for ball State here. Don't think I'm

1048
00:46:03,160 --> 00:46:04,239
Speaker 2: going to have a play in this. If I do,

1049
00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:05,920
Speaker 2: it's going to be on ball State. I'm gonna leave

1050
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:08,000
Speaker 2: it at that because it's Mac and we you know.

1051
00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,440
Speaker 1: Lolip a coin uh Mountain West Conference. We have two

1052
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,840
Speaker 1: games I wanted to talk about Wyoming Utah State. Wyoming

1053
00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 1: could have some success moving the ball on the ground.

1054
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 1: But you have a column out you can check out

1055
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:20,279
Speaker 1: on the Action Network app Anddooraction Network dot com. Air

1056
00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:23,279
Speaker 1: Force Colorida State as well is in that column. But

1057
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:25,120
Speaker 1: I just want to ask you one question. Look, Air

1058
00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:27,920
Speaker 1: Force is a triple option team laying ten. So I'm

1059
00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:31,480
Speaker 1: intrigued by Colorida State, you know, in this rivalry game.

1060
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: You know, this game is really important for Colorado State,

1061
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:37,359
Speaker 1: who's you know, been surging out of nowhere lately. And

1062
00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:40,799
Speaker 1: you know, if they're sitting at four wins, so they

1063
00:46:40,800 --> 00:46:43,640
Speaker 1: can still become bowe eligible. But my problem is Colorida

1064
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:47,440
Speaker 1: State's run dye is horrifying. Their d line numbers are

1065
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 1: not great, and that's mainly what I'm worried about. And

1066
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 1: then also you know on their on the offensive side,

1067
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:59,480
Speaker 1: their offensive line is also you know, there's some questions,

1068
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:01,319
Speaker 1: there's lushy wouldn't Why is the Air Force just going

1069
00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 1: to dominate this in the trenches and is there something

1070
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,319
Speaker 1: that I'm missing here? You know, I'm just gonna play

1071
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 1: because I played double digit dogs against Service Academy ties.

1072
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:10,759
Speaker 1: But that's the one thing that worries me, the trench play.

1073
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to point people to the article that

1074
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 2: I think just got published over within the last hour.

1075
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,719
Speaker 2: It's my article of the teams that I'm playing this week,

1076
00:47:17,760 --> 00:47:20,080
Speaker 2: and there's a reason to back Colorado State and the

1077
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,200
Speaker 2: reason why their rush defense is actually improved. They only

1078
00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 2: allowed one hundred and seven Russian yards UNLV last week,

1079
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:27,880
Speaker 2: ninety one yards of San Diego State a couple of

1080
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:32,000
Speaker 2: weeks ago. They are improving on the ground. There's some

1081
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:35,120
Speaker 2: good links in there that point to stories about Mike Bobo,

1082
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 2: what he's done with his defensive coordinator. And then my

1083
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,359
Speaker 2: favorite term in the entire article was we had to

1084
00:47:40,360 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 2: come to Jesus meeting with the defensive players. I say

1085
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 2: that to my sons, all right, let's have it come

1086
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 2: to Jesus meeting. So when you have one of those meetings,

1087
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 2: it really kind of turned around with this defense is

1088
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 2: done in Colorado State. We know can sling the ball

1089
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:52,320
Speaker 2: and that's where you can attack air force.

1090
00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:54,799
Speaker 1: Yep, that's a good point. Let's move on to the

1091
00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:57,319
Speaker 1: PAC twelve here. We had some big spreads with the

1092
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,960
Speaker 1: two primary teams in the PAC twelve is laying twenty

1093
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 1: one twenty one and a half against UCLA at home.

1094
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 1: Both those teams off of a bye and Oregon's laying

1095
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:08,719
Speaker 1: twenty seven at home to Arizona, which I think is

1096
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 1: too high you as well, eight points more than what

1097
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:14,239
Speaker 1: you projected as the Tan Action Network projection. The thing

1098
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,480
Speaker 1: I worry about though, is doesn't Oregon and Utah need

1099
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: to show out and roup scores to get to the

1100
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:19,960
Speaker 1: College Ball playoff?

1101
00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 2: Yeah? And I think Utah has the ability to do

1102
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,359
Speaker 2: that this weekend especially, you know, I think they are

1103
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,120
Speaker 2: seeing where they are ranked. I think they're kind of

1104
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 2: looking into the standings and they realize what they've got

1105
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,239
Speaker 2: to do and how they've got to impress. They're at

1106
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 2: home against the UCLA team that is very bad and

1107
00:48:35,640 --> 00:48:39,200
Speaker 2: you know power success rate offensively, you know in Havoc

1108
00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:41,160
Speaker 2: allowed they have a low rank and just don't take

1109
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,759
Speaker 2: care of the ball. There's a lot of red in

1110
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,640
Speaker 2: the chart of UCLA, especially on the defensive side. They're

1111
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:49,160
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty third in defensive passing success rate.

1112
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,680
Speaker 2: That's against Utah's offense with Tyler Huntley, he is in

1113
00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 2: the top ten of passing success rate in all of FBS.

1114
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:57,759
Speaker 2: And that's where Utah, I think, is just going to

1115
00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:00,440
Speaker 2: be able to put it on them, put it on

1116
00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:02,759
Speaker 2: them fast. As far as organ you mentioned it. This

1117
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 2: number is way too high. I don't know what we're

1118
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:06,279
Speaker 2: doing at twenty seven and a half. I look at

1119
00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 2: Colill Tate hurt. Are we missing like half the Arizona defense.

1120
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,320
Speaker 2: I'm not sure what's going on here. I projected minus nineteen.

1121
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,359
Speaker 2: It's up to minus twenty seven and a half. If

1122
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 2: you like sp plus projections. They're even at twenty four,

1123
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:20,160
Speaker 2: which is well below what the current market number is.

1124
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,600
Speaker 2: So I don't understand what this number is whatsoever. I

1125
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:24,279
Speaker 2: know it's awes and I know it's late at night,

1126
00:49:24,520 --> 00:49:26,400
Speaker 2: but I can't find the entries are I mean, there's

1127
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:28,120
Speaker 2: a point where the market is just way too much

1128
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:30,640
Speaker 2: on one team, and you know you have to buy.

1129
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,799
Speaker 2: So I'm not sure if'm gonna get involved with Arizona here,

1130
00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:34,880
Speaker 2: but at twenty eight, it's got to be considered.

1131
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, the problem is if Oregon does want to run

1132
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:38,280
Speaker 1: it up, this is the defense is doing it against.

1133
00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,960
Speaker 1: The Arizona defense is horrifying. I mean, they are bottom

1134
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:45,440
Speaker 1: ten in the country, in the country in rushing success rate,

1135
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,800
Speaker 1: passing success rate. Havoc zach great, they get no pressure.

1136
00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:51,800
Speaker 1: They can't cover. I mean, it's bad. So if Herbert

1137
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:53,239
Speaker 1: wants to run it up here and the Ducks want

1138
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:55,600
Speaker 1: to put some style points on the lockouts, they can

1139
00:49:55,640 --> 00:49:58,359
Speaker 1: certainly do so. USC col USC six and a half

1140
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:02,240
Speaker 1: point favorites against Cal, who actually showed some effort last week.

1141
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,479
Speaker 1: Chase Garber's back for Cal, and here he's back.

1142
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:07,640
Speaker 2: He's clear. That's I mean, that was the big news.

1143
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 2: I think that I don't know if that just came

1144
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 2: out today, but I mean I was already to back

1145
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:13,840
Speaker 2: Monster in the spot. I mean he looked good. You know,

1146
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 2: is finally getting the offense going, and you know now

1147
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:18,719
Speaker 2: that Chase Garber's is back, I just don't know if

1148
00:50:18,719 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 2: it's going to be rust or or exactly what the

1149
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:22,359
Speaker 2: game plan is, so it's still kind of floating around.

1150
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 2: I want to get deeper into what Cal is going

1151
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 2: to do on offense. I definitely want to get deeper

1152
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:27,680
Speaker 2: into some things that are going on with their defense.

1153
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,200
Speaker 2: They have been vulnerable on the ground. I want to

1154
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:33,319
Speaker 2: see the status of some USC running backs and how

1155
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:36,439
Speaker 2: tuned in this team is considering maybe the season maybe

1156
00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:38,839
Speaker 2: over for them. So yeah, Cal is definitely the look.

1157
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:40,239
Speaker 2: But I'm going to spend a little bit more time

1158
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:41,319
Speaker 2: getting deep into it.

1159
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:43,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, well more than that on the Saturday Morning Show

1160
00:50:43,560 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 1: ten thirty am. Mister, we'll tweet that out at Stucky

1161
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:49,040
Speaker 1: two and at underscore colin number one with two L's

1162
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:49,719
Speaker 1: all right.

1163
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 2: Let's get to the sec.

1164
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:53,839
Speaker 1: I played Mississippi Sate plus twenty one or the week

1165
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:56,520
Speaker 1: that's down to seventeen and a half. And look a

1166
00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:58,960
Speaker 1: couple of things here. Some people like Albama's gonna come

1167
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 1: out and they're going to blow out to State. They're

1168
00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:03,440
Speaker 1: gonna be angry. I think it's potential letdown spot. Mississippi

1169
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 1: State was dead to me, and they looked dead and

1170
00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:10,000
Speaker 1: Arkansas woke them up. And that's what happens. If your

1171
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 1: season's going stout, just go play Arkansas.

1172
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 2: Tommy Stevens is a walking zombie. He came back from

1173
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 2: the dead, yep.

1174
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 1: And look the Mississippi State. What they can do is

1175
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:23,120
Speaker 1: they can run the ball. Bama is vulnerable. We said

1176
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:25,520
Speaker 1: this all year in the front seven and it's played

1177
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:28,640
Speaker 1: out that way. They're ninety seventh and stuff freight eighty

1178
00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:31,239
Speaker 1: six in power success rate. So I think Mississippi State,

1179
00:51:31,440 --> 00:51:33,279
Speaker 1: off of a bye, this is their super Bowl this

1180
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:36,560
Speaker 1: year at home, the cow bells ringing. But more importantly,

1181
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:37,680
Speaker 1: so I think they're gonna able to move the ball

1182
00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:40,839
Speaker 1: on the ground. Alabama's going to get theirs. But more

1183
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,719
Speaker 1: importantly Tua, I don't think he's gonna play. I don't

1184
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 1: think there's any reason why they would play him. They're

1185
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:47,840
Speaker 1: gonna win this game. They need, you know, they just

1186
00:51:47,840 --> 00:51:50,359
Speaker 1: need to win out and he's battling an injury, he's

1187
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:54,080
Speaker 1: got a pro career. They have Western Carolina on deck.

1188
00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,040
Speaker 1: The Bama schedule gets harder, so I don't think he

1189
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:58,799
Speaker 1: plays the next two weeks, and I think that's one

1190
00:51:58,800 --> 00:52:00,120
Speaker 1: of the reasons why the line came down.

1191
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, we got ten horn weekend coming up where saving

1192
00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 2: gets durrant and call all the immediate rat poison or

1193
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,279
Speaker 2: some shit like that. So I will try to get

1194
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 2: as many of these charts out as we can. But

1195
00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:10,840
Speaker 2: you hit on the spot that I saw immediately, Like

1196
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,759
Speaker 2: my eyes got on and as the number moved and

1197
00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:15,920
Speaker 2: like notifications started going off. You know, I couldn't get

1198
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:18,279
Speaker 2: in until it was nineteen, So goodbye you to get

1199
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:19,840
Speaker 2: that number. But yeah, I'm seeing the same thing as

1200
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:23,000
Speaker 2: that Mississippi State is twentieth and stuff right offensively against

1201
00:52:23,040 --> 00:52:25,880
Speaker 2: an Alabama defense that is ninety seventh and defending stuff right.

1202
00:52:25,920 --> 00:52:28,239
Speaker 2: What does that mean? Oh, same thing with power success.

1203
00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,480
Speaker 2: So what does that mean? Missisippi State's going to be

1204
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 2: able to run the ball, not get touched in the backfield,

1205
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 2: They're going to be able to get to the line

1206
00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:35,600
Speaker 2: of scrimmage and not get touched, and they're going to

1207
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:38,759
Speaker 2: be able to gain yards, keep the chains moving. Mississpi

1208
00:52:38,760 --> 00:52:41,600
Speaker 2: State's offensively thirteenth in line yards. That means they get

1209
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:43,359
Speaker 2: the yards, but they need to and the proper down

1210
00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 2: and distance as we're Alabama sixty sixth then defending it.

1211
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,480
Speaker 2: We knew Alabama's defense was young, we knew that they

1212
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:51,279
Speaker 2: could be pushed around. Joe Burrow threw all over them.

1213
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,839
Speaker 2: I mean, their strength is their offensive weapons on the outside.

1214
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:56,480
Speaker 2: And now it's up to Mac Jones to throw out

1215
00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:58,400
Speaker 2: into the flats. And really it's going to be I mean,

1216
00:52:58,440 --> 00:53:03,719
Speaker 2: if Mississippi State's corners have any kind of ability, talent whatsoever,

1217
00:53:03,920 --> 00:53:05,279
Speaker 2: or you know, I mean, this could actually be a

1218
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,960
Speaker 2: close game. But at the same time, I think Mississippi

1219
00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:10,399
Speaker 2: State is definitely the play here. Way too many points

1220
00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 2: for a team that actually is going to be able

1221
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:13,880
Speaker 2: to run the ball and dictate some clock.

1222
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,960
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on to Florida Missouri. I'm getting

1223
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 1: ready to play Missouri here at plus seven. I know

1224
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,280
Speaker 1: that you already played it. This is the Missouri defense

1225
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 1: is real, by the way, and it's very good. They

1226
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: get Kelly Bryant is coming back. They're leading receiver Johnson.

1227
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,799
Speaker 1: It's gonna be back. Missouri has been a different team

1228
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 1: at home. I know they haven't played great teams, but

1229
00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 1: they just look a lot different at home. With Kelly

1230
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:33,279
Speaker 1: Bryant back, I think this line should be closer to

1231
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,280
Speaker 1: you know, three or four is a horrible spot for Florida.

1232
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:37,719
Speaker 1: They're not going to the College ball ploff. This is

1233
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:40,840
Speaker 1: a noon kick Jefferson Pilot game. It's gonna be cold.

1234
00:53:41,080 --> 00:53:41,279
Speaker 2: You know.

1235
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:43,799
Speaker 1: Missouri is coming off just I think three or four

1236
00:53:43,840 --> 00:53:46,879
Speaker 1: straight losses with the Vanderbilt to Kentucky last week, they

1237
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 1: got shut out. Now Brian didn't play last week. That

1238
00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: their starting receiver. But they're gonna be fully healthy or

1239
00:53:51,160 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 1: their defense is good. I think Drask will make a

1240
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 1: couple of mistakes. Missouri is gonna come out fired up.

1241
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,120
Speaker 1: They've there's been a different team at home. I think

1242
00:53:58,160 --> 00:53:58,919
Speaker 1: they pick them off.

1243
00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, going at your seven because I think this number

1244
00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,320
Speaker 2: is gonna get I think this number is gonna get whacked.

1245
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 2: I gotta projected at five. Everything Stuck said is true.

1246
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:08,440
Speaker 2: I will point you again to the Action Network to

1247
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,560
Speaker 2: read my article that I have call them has Missouri

1248
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:13,359
Speaker 2: in it. But I mean, I mean, Missouri hasn't lost

1249
00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:17,000
Speaker 2: a home in thirteen months. Their defense is legit. Florida

1250
00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:18,759
Speaker 2: is probably just trying to get into their bye week

1251
00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:20,040
Speaker 2: next week. They got a bye week, then they have

1252
00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:22,120
Speaker 2: Florida State probably just want to get a win here,

1253
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,480
Speaker 2: get out. There's a lot of factors going in here

1254
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:27,800
Speaker 2: in favor of Missouri and not for Florida.

1255
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:31,879
Speaker 1: Yep, all right, let's also talk quickly. LSU will miss

1256
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,879
Speaker 1: anything there. I played, I played a plus twenty one.

1257
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:36,600
Speaker 1: I think that they are Look, they can move the

1258
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:38,840
Speaker 1: ball on the ground a little bit, gallis you. Obviously

1259
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:42,040
Speaker 1: there's a letdown factor here, But the LSU defense it's

1260
00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:43,960
Speaker 1: vulner I mean you can put up points on them,

1261
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,440
Speaker 1: almost can compete. They don't know losing the game. But

1262
00:54:46,880 --> 00:54:49,200
Speaker 1: I like, will missing anything over twenty one, twenty one

1263
00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:49,400
Speaker 1: or row?

1264
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and I like it at twenty one and

1265
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 2: a half, which you can get in a couple of

1266
00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 2: shops right now. And I'm just kind of can plumbly

1267
00:54:57,520 --> 00:55:01,160
Speaker 2: run absolutely crazy against this LSUD defense. How tired is

1268
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 2: this LSU defense? How are they feeling after a week

1269
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,680
Speaker 2: of celebration. You're number one, You just beat your rival

1270
00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:09,319
Speaker 2: after a huge drought, same thing as Minnesota is one

1271
00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:11,800
Speaker 2: of the biggest victories in the program in a decade.

1272
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:13,799
Speaker 2: I think there is a hangover look to this. The

1273
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:16,120
Speaker 2: game is at night, so maybe LSU isn't as you know,

1274
00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,240
Speaker 2: caught off guard as it would be at an eleven

1275
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:21,000
Speaker 2: am local kit kind of game. I am very much

1276
00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,680
Speaker 2: intrigued about Mississippi States quarterback. The plumb league kid has

1277
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 2: been impossible to catch on the ground, and you know

1278
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:29,120
Speaker 2: LSU is.

1279
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:29,960
Speaker 1: I don't know.

1280
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:31,719
Speaker 2: We're gonna have to see. I'm gonna get deeper into it,

1281
00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 2: but there could be an all misplay here.

1282
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:34,680
Speaker 1: All right, before we get out of here, let's go

1283
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:39,600
Speaker 1: three and out. Great, let's make it a quick three

1284
00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:43,400
Speaker 1: and out. We'll have articles up on both Friday night games.

1285
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,520
Speaker 1: I'll give a nugget for Lateech Marshall here and just say,

1286
00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 1: look LA Tech, who's on a roll. They haven't played anybody.

1287
00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:52,480
Speaker 1: You know, if you look at adjusted opponents on the

1288
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: offensive side, they have the easiest schedule in the country

1289
00:55:55,120 --> 00:55:56,960
Speaker 1: so far. I mean, go look at who they've played.

1290
00:55:57,200 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 1: It's been an absolute joke. I got this a two

1291
00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:02,280
Speaker 1: and a half. This is a short week. They've had exams,

1292
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 1: they're leaving on Thursday. They have six days to prepare.

1293
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:06,800
Speaker 1: Marshals off of a bye I think they're gonna be

1294
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,520
Speaker 1: able to run the ball. They'll control the line of scrimmage.

1295
00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:10,920
Speaker 1: I think Marshall gets the job done here. And this

1296
00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:13,360
Speaker 1: could be a preview Championship Conference USA.

1297
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:15,400
Speaker 2: I think this is my money line partner with IOWA

1298
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:17,640
Speaker 2: here on Marshall. You know, we'll have our Friday previews

1299
00:56:17,640 --> 00:56:20,400
Speaker 2: out Louisiana Tech's strength of schedules in play. There's a

1300
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:23,399
Speaker 2: lot of things Marshall has advantage of in the advanced stats.

1301
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:26,240
Speaker 1: And yeah, we'll That's something on Fresno San Diego State

1302
00:56:26,320 --> 00:56:28,920
Speaker 1: as well, which could be interesting. Could come to the

1303
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,120
Speaker 1: special teams where San Diego State has the edge, but

1304
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 1: it's really just ugly offense for San Diego State against

1305
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,040
Speaker 1: it ugly Presno State defense, and then you know, pretty

1306
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:40,240
Speaker 1: good Fresno State offense against a really good san Diego

1307
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:43,000
Speaker 1: State defensive, which what gives? Maybe it's special teams where

1308
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,359
Speaker 1: San Diego State is much better. All right, let's go

1309
00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:48,800
Speaker 1: to second down. Here our favorite overdog, which you already

1310
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:51,720
Speaker 1: know mine, Northwestern mass in yours.

1311
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:53,799
Speaker 2: You saw minus twenty one. Try to get it for

1312
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:54,839
Speaker 2: that hook comes.

1313
00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: All right, and then time for our underdog money line parlay,

1314
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:06,080
Speaker 1: turning good weekends into great weekends. It's time for the

1315
00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:10,000
Speaker 1: money line parlay. I saw that you wrote down Missouri.

1316
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,720
Speaker 1: I couldn't believe it. Yeah, that was mine. I'm taking
