I can't say it's Marquee. 15 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: You know games levon right. We were spoiled last week 16 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: with three top ten games, so not a whole lot. 17 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 1: I think there's what one ranked versus ranked game in 18 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: Michigan versus Oklahoma. But you know what, with this many games, 19 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: there's bound to be some crazy stuff and some interesting 20 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:14,039 Speaker 1: things that happen. 21 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 4: So I fallen into that trap before that. 22 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: No Marquee matchups boot, But it's not like the soft 23 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: launch of Week zero. There's like five games we have, 24 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: like I think they're five hundred and fifty five. 25 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 4: I lost count. 26 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: After a while with called the FCS teams factored in there. 27 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: But good morning, Rich, Good morning Jared. Everything good with you, guys. 28 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:35,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, everything's good. 29 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 5: I am with you guys, live from the great state 30 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 5: of Idaho before crossing the border over to the Poloue 31 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 5: to call a game for I'm back on the college 32 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 5: football bandwagon. Washington State San Diego State kickoff this evening. 33 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 5: But yeah, man, other than trying to find my footing 34 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 5: in a small town on the board of Washington, everything's good. 35 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 6: I love it. Where in the world is Rich Hornberger? 36 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 6: The game he played last year is back? Big game 37 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 6: for your boys tonight. I actually have a little bit 38 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 6: of a of a peanuts as our friend Bill Krackenberger 39 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 6: would say on San Diego State tonight, plus the points. 40 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,639 Speaker 6: So it should be a fun game. Brian, I'll be honest. 41 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 6: I think there are some and I know RANKD versus 42 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 6: Rank not as many, but there's some sneaky good spots. Today. 43 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 6: I think we're gonna learn a a lot about the 44 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 6: Michigan and Oklahoma quarterbacks and we'll get to them later 45 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 6: in the show. But there's a couple of really good games. 46 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 6: Like when I was going through the list, there's a 47 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 6: couple of games. I'm like, Oh, I'm interested to see 48 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 6: what that team looks like. I'm interested to see what 49 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 6: that quarterback looks like. We got a couple of good 50 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 6: non conference Power four games. Illinois at Duke, I think 51 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 6: is really fascinating. I think Baylor at SMU is fascinating, 52 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 6: especially what happened to Baylor last week. I think they're 53 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 6: a ranked team, or at least talent wise. And I 54 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 6: think Arizona State a Mississippi state. I know Mississippi States 55 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 6: not the tops of the SEC, but how good is 56 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 6: Arizona State this year? I think we'll find out a 57 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 6: little bit more about them tonight. 58 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I love. The lighting at the 59 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 1: Ramada Inn over there where Rich. 60 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,920 Speaker 4: Is at looks beautiful. It's well lit. 61 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 5: You know, I should take a picture of the setup. 62 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 5: I'll take lampshades off. I mean, I look like count 63 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,239 Speaker 5: Dracula until you get the lighting jokes right. 64 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 3: It takes a little soon. 65 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 1: Bud, very nice And by the way, shout out to 66 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: Idaho where Rich is at. Right now, how about this Idaho. 67 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: The actual team will be wearing their fighting taters. 68 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, yeah. 69 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 5: They put up a great fight against Washington State a 70 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 5: week ago. Did Yeah, it came down to the wire there, 71 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 5: So yeah, looking looking for good things out of the 72 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 5: Vandals this year. 73 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, we will be knee deep into college football, of course, 74 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: full slate of games here today. The Irish Notre Dame 75 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: the only top twenty five team not in action this 76 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: week's everybody else is. But we start with the NFL 77 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: because last night the game in Brasi, we had the 78 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: Chargers take down the Chiefs twenty seven to twenty one. 79 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: Shout out to Justin Herbert, who played great over three 80 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: hundred yards passing three touchdown passes. You know, it's funny 81 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: because immediately after the game, one of my buddies hit 82 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 1: me up and it was like, I told you it's 83 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: the Chargers year, And I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa 84 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 1: WOA in honor ofly course, so not so fast, my friend, right, Like, 85 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: that's basically what I was like, Well, if you look 86 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: at that game, and I'm curious what you guys think 87 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 1: on one hand, and this is the hand I think of, 88 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 1: there's so much more work for the Chargers or the 89 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: Broncos to do. Broncos haven't even played a game yet, 90 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: but if someone is to dethrone the Chiefs, and this 91 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: would be the first time in the last ten years, 92 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: they've had nine straight divisional crowns. 93 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 4: Right in the AFC West. 94 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: And I look at that game last night and I say, 95 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 1: the Chargers basically won a home game that was a 96 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: home game in Brazil for them, So they technically won 97 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: a home game where Rashi Rice didn't play and Xavier 98 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: Worthy played like three plays. It was a shout out 99 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: to his Aaron Rodgers game or something something like. He 100 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: played like three plays, he was done. So you won 101 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: a home game with no Rashi Rice, no Xavier Worthy. 102 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: We'll see the severity of his shoulder injury in the 103 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 1: days to come here. But it's a nice win for 104 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: the Chargers. But for anyone who's like I knew it, 105 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: you know here we come, Broncos are Chargers, they're de 106 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: throning case, I just don't buy it yet. It's a 107 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: very nice opening win. But Kansas City lost their first 108 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: game two years ago, remember at home against the Lions. 109 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 1: Chris Jones was still holding out. They lost that game. 110 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:48,799 Speaker 1: They went on to beat the Niners in the Super Bowl, 111 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: So I think it's premature to reign on the dance 112 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: on the Chief's grave just yet. 113 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 5: I think my reaction to that win for the Chargers 114 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 5: is it is so what I expected. Jim Harbaugh has 115 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 5: won everywhere. He's won a lot of games everywhere. He's 116 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 5: had competent play at quarterback. And if they can keep 117 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 5: Justin Herbert healthy, if they could keep that run game 118 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 5: going the way they got it going yesterday against the Chiefs, 119 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 5: and I have a thought on that, and I'll get 120 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 5: to it real quick here, then I think the Chargers 121 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 5: are going to have a successful season. I think the 122 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 5: Chiefs didn't get off the bus. I think the Chargers 123 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 5: were way more ready for this matchup than Kansas City was. 124 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,359 Speaker 5: I think that the Chiefs are getting a little high 125 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 5: on their own supply, maybe feeling a little overconfident. You know, 126 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 5: I'm not saying they're rolling their helmets out there. They 127 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,720 Speaker 5: played a hard nosed football game. I think they just 128 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 5: showed up to that game a little too late. And 129 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 5: I think we may see this in the early season 130 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 5: with teams with high powered passing offenses. When you go 131 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 5: against a power running team like the Chargers, who want 132 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 5: to come downhill out you. They want to throw two 133 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 5: pullers in front of big, heavy running backs. Whereas you're 134 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 5: going through training camp practicing against a pass happy offense. 135 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 5: If you're the starting defense, like anytimes it's ones versus 136 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 5: ones at practice, it is hard to get your pads 137 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 5: ready for that type of physicality. So the charges from 138 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 5: the opening whistle were far more physical than the Chiefs, 139 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 5: And I think it has a lot to do with 140 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 5: what the Chiefs defense actually gets to see live at 141 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 5: practice leading up to the regular season. 142 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm not in my opinion on the Chiefs has 143 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 6: not changed one iota After last night, that play where 144 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 6: Herbert scrambled on third down, you know that was kind 145 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 6: of a missed assignment. You saw Chris Jones and Frank 146 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 6: will go at it on the sidelines afterwards. If they 147 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 6: make that like I think in week eighteen, they make 148 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 6: that play like they have that communication buttoned up and 149 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 6: that play doesn't happen. And how are you feeling right 150 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,559 Speaker 6: now if you're holding like let's say you were holding 151 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 6: a Chargers money line ticket and the Chiefs have the 152 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 6: ball with two minutes left, Mahomes down six. You know, 153 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 6: you feel pretty good that the Chiefs are going to 154 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 6: drive down the field and get points there and win 155 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 6: that game. It was a pretty bad I would say 156 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 6: it was. To me what that game was last night, 157 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 6: game one of a best of seven series in the NHL, 158 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 6: where the underdog goalie just was hotter than hot and 159 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 6: Herbert just stole that game and he was just cooking 160 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 6: like that was just justin Herbert's night, and you tip 161 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 6: your cap and you say you were fantastic, Bud. When 162 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 6: a good quarterback plays at that level, there's really not 163 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 6: much you could do. And that's whyle of this sport 164 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 6: because on any given Sunday, right, I know it was Friday, 165 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 6: but on any given Sunday, a quarterback can steal a 166 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,959 Speaker 6: game like that. I don't think the Chiefs played poorly. 167 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 6: Brian laid out the details like you lose your your 168 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 6: best deep threat right out of the gate. It's like 169 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 6: the Eagles losing Carter. You know, when the Eagles lost 170 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 6: Carter and we can get into this the you know 171 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,599 Speaker 6: the Hawk Tua moment heard around the world on Thursday. 172 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, but you knew. 173 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 6: Right out of the gate, Oh, the Cowboys are gonna 174 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 6: have a lot more success on offense. Well, the Chiefs 175 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,079 Speaker 6: didn't score touchdown in the first half. You know, I 176 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 6: think if they don't lose Worthy on the first drive, 177 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 6: they probably get a touchdown in the first half. And 178 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 6: this is probably a tighter game and the Chiefs aren't 179 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 6: chasing it, and Herbert maybe has a little bit more Okay, 180 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 6: I gotta be a little more conservative here. We got 181 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 6: to keep the Mahomes up the just it was just 182 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 6: it was just the Chargers night, and it was still 183 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 6: a close game, and the Chiefs still had a chance 184 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 6: to get off the field late and put the ball 185 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 6: in their quarterbacks hands to win it. So no opinion 186 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 6: change on either team frankly last night. 187 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of work for the Chargers to do, 188 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: but nice start, very nice win for them. Not trying 189 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: to rain on the parade, but it's true. There's a 190 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: reason why that she have won nine straight divisional crowns. 191 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: And I will say this, as far as the Chiefs, 192 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: I'm still surprised how sloppy they look. They typically don't 193 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 1: look like that where they're assisting the other team in 194 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: beating them. Whereas the missed extra point right like they 195 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 1: finally were about to tie the score in, Butker misses 196 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: the extra point, and we're like, he hit the fifty 197 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: nine yard or right before halftime, and now he's missing 198 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: an extra point. 199 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 4: He's just weird. Hollywood. 200 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,960 Speaker 1: Brown had an easy catch that he dropped early in 201 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: the first half. Would have been a first down, would 202 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: have been a big play. He just dropped the ball. Penalties, 203 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: you know, a couple of fall start penalties right before 204 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: halftime could. 205 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 4: Have cost him points. 206 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: It's weird to see the Chiefs still this sloppy on 207 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: the heels of the Super Bowl, and I hear you, Rich, 208 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,559 Speaker 1: I just don't think they were locked in. And I'm 209 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 1: surprised about that first game after the Super Bowl calamity 210 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: and they look like that. 211 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 4: It's kind of weird. 212 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: We want to work in real fast the Cowboys and 213 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: the Eagles, because Jared you mentioned this, the Hawk Tua 214 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: moment thereby a Chief carter not good. Gota be gotta 215 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: be wiser than that. Can't be the second guy getting caught. 216 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: You can't speed right in front of the cops, you 217 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: know what I mean. 218 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 4: You can't peel out right in front of the cops. 219 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: You can't do the official was right there. You can't 220 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: spit in someone's you know, general direction with the cops 221 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: right there, that's what he did that hurt him, That 222 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: absolutely hurt them. Cowboys were able to run the ball 223 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: more effectively than the Chiefs were last night, right and 224 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: Jalen Carter is a big part of their rush defense. 225 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, that was the best worst game I've ever seen. 226 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: He was fantastic for most of the game, and then 227 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: he had two easy catches that were drops and one 228 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: would have been a difficult catch at the end. He's 229 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: fully capable of making that play. He'd tell you he 230 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,319 Speaker 1: needs to make that play. So really, three drops by 231 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb really strange. I don't know how the under 232 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: hitting that game, my lord, wild forty one combined first 233 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 1: half points and it still goes under, like under forty 234 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 1: of it and a half. That's insanity right there. But 235 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: if you're holding an overticket, you have no hair left 236 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: because he pulled it all out. 237 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 4: That was wild. 238 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 239 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,880 Speaker 5: Betting on college football the NFL, I mean it is. 240 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: This is what we love about football, though. 241 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 5: It's the unpredictability of what you're gonna see. Like, for example, 242 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 5: if you told me that the Cowboys would have put 243 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 5: up as great of a fight as they did overall 244 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 5: against the reigning Super Bowl champs, defending their home turf 245 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 5: for the first time since raising the Lombardy. I would 246 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 5: have told you the Cowboys are going to come out flat. 247 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:36,079 Speaker 5: The Eagles are going to be rolling. It's gonna be 248 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 5: a lot of confidence, a lot of noise in that 249 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 5: stadium for the Cowboys to handle, and this is going 250 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 5: to be a rough start for their season. 251 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 3: And they battled. 252 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,640 Speaker 5: I was really impressed with the whole squad. I think 253 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:53,439 Speaker 5: two things. One, Dallas really fell down not staying aggressive 254 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 5: in the second half with the blitz package, oddly unaggressive 255 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 5: game plan. They blitzed a couple of times extremely effectively 256 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 5: from the secondary level, sending the slock corner stuff like that, 257 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 5: you know, and confusing Jalen Hurts and getting home and 258 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 5: then they stopped. 259 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 3: It's like when you lose the. 260 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 5: Best pass rusher, the best defender on your team, and 261 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 5: he's such an important part of the pass rush, how 262 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 5: do you get that vanilla? Defensively, they got scared, I think, 263 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 5: or got scared out of it. It was confusing. And 264 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 5: then offensively, you said it all. Brian CD had such 265 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 5: a confounding performance in the fourth quarter. Dak Prescott was 266 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 5: a huge Prescott was starwing darts and he deserves better. 267 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 3: I mean he was. 268 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 5: Putting it on that final three play sequence where he 269 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 5: misses CD on the post because he just flat out 270 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 5: drops a forty yard handoff. He finds Goddard on the 271 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 5: sideline and he dots him with a ball and then 272 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:54,560 Speaker 5: he puts one on CD. 273 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:54,959 Speaker 3: Again. 274 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 5: Tough pass. I understand that, hard, hard one to catch 275 00:13:58,960 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 5: up for. 276 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:00,400 Speaker 3: You had a layout for it. 277 00:14:00,679 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 5: But again another ball off of his fingertips for an incompletion, 278 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 5: and number eighty eight knows it. 279 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:07,559 Speaker 3: I know he's great. 280 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 5: I know he'll do better this season, but he's a 281 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 5: big reason why the Dallas Cowboys lost that game. 282 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 6: Yep, Dallas one yards per play. They lost turnover battle, 283 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 6: but they won yards per play. They were the better 284 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 6: I don't want to say the better team, but the 285 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 6: Eagles committed nine penalties for one hundred and ten yards 286 00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 6: and they gained less than five yards per play. I 287 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 6: think you run that game back one hundred times. I 288 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 6: think the Eagles lose it more than they win it. 289 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 6: And listen, we told you this a month ago. I 290 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 6: told you this I'm already hearing Eagles fans clamor about 291 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 6: Kevin Petulo's play calling in the fourth quarter and how 292 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 6: bad it was and conservative and guys, we were on 293 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 6: this network a month ago and I said, the most 294 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 6: interesting higher in this offseason was Scott Loeffler, the quarterbacks 295 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 6: coach for the Eagles. Why are you hiring a mac 296 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 6: head coach from Bowling Green to be the quarterbacks coach 297 00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 6: for the defending Super Bowl champions unless you've got some 298 00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 6: uncertainty in that offensive play calling room with Kellen Moore gone. 299 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 6: And I'm telling you, if Aj Brown goes another game 300 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 6: without getting a target until the fourth quarter, I think 301 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 6: there might be a riot down Broad Street. This is 302 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 6: what we're looking at this year, Guys, Jalen Hurts. This 303 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 6: is a very fragile offense. If they can't run the 304 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 6: ball and get a lead, I don't know if this 305 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 6: is going. Like, for example, if the Eagles were in 306 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 6: the chief situation last night where they were constantly chasing 307 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 6: the game. Yeah, that's not the recipe for Philly right now. Now, 308 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 6: maybe they'll graduate and regain some of that. Hey, we 309 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 6: can spread it out and throw the ball and make 310 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 6: you hurt and stretch you and vertically stretch you. But 311 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 6: I didn't see it against Dallas's defense without Michael Parsons. So, 312 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 6: red Flag fans, you play the Chiefs next week. They're 313 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 6: coming off a pretty gritty loss. They're gonna be fired up. 314 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 6: You beat them in the Super Bowl six months ago 315 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 6: and you embarrassed them. If you play like you did 316 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 6: on Thursday night, you will get beat by the Chiefs, 317 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 6: mark my words right now. And you're getting a discount 318 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 6: on them. Getting a discount on the Chiefs right now. 319 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 6: After the loss last night. 320 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: By the way, after this loss for Dallas, I took 321 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: them their season win total over Great Bet because it 322 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: moved too much. It's plus one twenty five now at 323 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: bet MGM. So think about this early August, it was 324 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: minus one thirty five to go over seven and a 325 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: half wins. Now it's plus one twenty five. You could 326 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 1: get plus money. Think about how that game worked out 327 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. They went toe to toe with the defending 328 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,880 Speaker 1: champs on the road. They lost a close game as 329 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: eight and a half point underdogs. They were expected to 330 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: lose that game, and now they're plus one twenty five. 331 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 4: That's just too much of an over reaction. 332 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 6: Totally agree. Great bet Brian. 333 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: Thank you. 334 00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,479 Speaker 6: Dallas's gonna be good better this year. I'm telling your 335 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 6: offense gonna be fun. Their offense is gonna be fun. 336 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,880 Speaker 1: That was the game for Dak.

We'll get to the trash talking head 385 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: coaches here momentarily, but two. 386 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 4: Head coaches in a rough spot. 387 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: That would be Alabama's Kaitlin de Boor and North Carolina's 388 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: Bill Belichick. So my question is simple, who's in a 389 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: rougher spot right now? Is it Belichick or is it Debor? 390 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: Many different angles, many different layers to get through. 391 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 4: But what would you say? How would you answer that question? 392 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 6: There? 393 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 4: Rich Belichick or Deboor in a rougher spot. 394 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 5: Oh, it's absolutely Kailin Debor. It doesn't matter really in 395 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 5: his tenure. How far out you get from Nick Saban's 396 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 5: time at Alabama, you're still replacing Nick Saban unless Kalin 397 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 5: de bor turns into. 398 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 3: I don't know, either Nick Saban two point zero. 399 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 5: Or the Tide rolls to the same tune that they've 400 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 5: been for the past just about two decades under Saban, 401 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 5: then this is gonna be a rough tenure. 402 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:23,439 Speaker 3: We knew what this was gonna look like when he 403 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 3: took the job. We knew whoever took this job was. 404 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 5: Going to be in some level of peril trying to 405 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:35,719 Speaker 5: replace greatness. And you have a suffocating reaction to a 406 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 5: bad loss, and that's what that was. It was a 407 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 5: bad loss for Bama out the gates against Florida State. 408 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 3: Belichick, Look, there's. 409 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 5: Gonna be some lumps and bumps He's and the Tar 410 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,880 Speaker 5: Heels are going to take along the way as he figures. 411 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 3: Out how to coach at the college level. 412 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 5: It's completely different game than the game he came from, 413 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 5: and and he's not a first timer, but it's been 414 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,639 Speaker 5: a long time and so he's gonna have to do 415 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 5: some figuring out. 416 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 3: I think there'll be more patient with him. 417 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 5: But the fan base and Tuscaloosa and the media reaction 418 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 5: is going to be intense. The scrutiny that debor is under, 419 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 5: so one hundred debor, He's he's got a lot more 420 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 5: to worry about and uh and a lot less time 421 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 5: to worry about it, if you catch my drift. 422 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:27,479 Speaker 6: Totally agree. Now, there is an element of I guess 423 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 6: showmanship to what Belichick is going through right now because 424 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 6: of how big the spotlight is on him. But the 425 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 6: expectations at Alabama are significantly higher. I mean, Bill Belichick 426 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,439 Speaker 6: could go six and six this year, get to a 427 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,560 Speaker 6: bowl game, and I don't really think there's gonna be 428 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 6: a lot of off season clamoring for him to you know, oh, 429 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 6: you gotta get you know, we gotta get rid of 430 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 6: this guy, blah blah blah. I think because of just 431 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,240 Speaker 6: who he is and you know, how much attention he gets, 432 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 6: I do think North Carolina will want to keep him around. 433 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 6: Debor if they go six and six. Heck, if they 434 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:13,479 Speaker 6: go eight and four. I mean you're talking about like 435 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 6: earth wind and fire type rage from the Alabama fan base. 436 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 6: I mean that like if they miss a playoff two 437 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 6: consecutive years and if they look as saw. I mean 438 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 6: that's the difference between North Carolina and Alabama. Alabama has 439 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 6: thirteen five stars on the two deep. Alabama has an elite, 440 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 6: elite defense of you know players offense. I think they're good, 441 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 6: not great, but still very talented, significantly more talented than UNC. 442 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 6: If those players don't play up to the expectation. That's 443 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 6: on the coaches, whereas North Carolina lost their entire team. Now, 444 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 6: to be fair, Bill picked the new team. So if 445 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 6: they don't play up the expectations, you can say, well, 446 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 6: well Bill's not you know, he's lost his fastball with 447 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 6: you know, talent evaluation. And I'll be honest, after watching 448 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 6: Max Johnson come off the bench and play pretty well 449 00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 6: at quarterback, I have some questions about his decision making 450 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 6: to start Gio Lopez over Max Johnson, but we'll get 451 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 6: to that at a later time. The expectation at Alabama, 452 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 6: the talent at Alabama is significantly higher. That means there's 453 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 6: more to lose. 454 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:27,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, listen, the case it is to bor just because 455 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,639 Speaker 1: Alabama fans are psychotic. And I don't mean that, you know, 456 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: as a negative all across the board, Like they have 457 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 1: high expectations, sometimes unrealistic high expectations, and I don't think 458 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: they're unrealistic with calling Caleb dborr out for what's happened 459 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: thus far. Right, he's lost four games as a double 460 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: digit favorite. Yeah, already, Like you can't lose games as 461 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: a double digit favorite. I don't care who you are, 462 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 1: but especially if you take over for Nick Saban at 463 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: Alabama and they're just winning national championship after national championship. 464 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: You can't lose to Vanderbilt last year and a bad 465 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: Oklahoma team and then lose to Florida State and get 466 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: punked by Florida State this year fresh off a two 467 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: win ten season. 468 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 4: That's just way too much. They've lost to. 469 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,199 Speaker 1: Four unranked teams as a double digit favorite, So of 470 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: course he's gonna get scrutinized like crazy. The thing with 471 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: Belichick and he doesn't have a team nearly as talented, obviously, 472 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: both you guys laid that point out, and it's the 473 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: right point. But the thing that's different with Belichick is 474 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 1: that each loss is tied to his legacy. You know, 475 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 1: with each loss at North Carolina, there are gonna be 476 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 1: people that start thinking, yeah, Tom Brady was much more 477 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 1: important to the Patriots success than Belichick was. 478 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 4: And then there's a lot even now of like man Belichick. 479 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:49,960 Speaker 1: The college game is a different animal, you know, And 480 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 1: it's like, I think he can figure it out just fine, 481 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 1: you know, if the talent is up to snuff, if 482 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 1: you will, I don't think it's so advanced and so 483 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 1: diff that he's like WHOA, I have the much more 484 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 1: talented team, but I don't know. 485 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 4: What's going on. 486 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 1: It's almost basketball out here. This college game is radically different. 487 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: I don't think that's the case at all, but those 488 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 1: naysayers are out there. So that's the thing with Belichick 489 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 1: because of who he is. Even though we don't expect 490 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: excellence from North Carolina, we do expect excellence from Belichick. 491 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,679 Speaker 1: So he's at a rough spot too. It's just not 492 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,240 Speaker 1: rougher than Kaylin de boor. 493 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree with most of what you said. The 494 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 5: college game is very different in this way. It's it's 495 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 5: unique in that look in the NFL, you have twenty 496 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 5: two starters on each team who are drawn from the 497 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 5: most elite pool of athletes you can possibly draw from 498 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,439 Speaker 5: in the country, and outside of injuries, for the most part, 499 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 5: the battle week to week is strategically finding where your 500 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 5: opponent is weak and attacking them. Whereas at the college 501 00:25:57,160 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 5: football level, there was no way you and see was 502 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 5: going to match wits with against even a Texas Christian 503 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 5: Like they just weren't gonna be as talented. And He's 504 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 5: gonna run into that a lot more often at the 505 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 5: collegiate level than he will at the NFL level. Now, 506 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 5: to your other point, and I agree with this point fullheartedly. 507 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 5: He's gonna figure it out. It's gonna take some time. 508 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,440 Speaker 5: Go do yourself a favor and look back on some 509 00:26:25,520 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 5: of the great coaches who we herald now and see 510 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,679 Speaker 5: how they looked when they were getting the programs off 511 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 5: the ground at collegiate level. 512 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 3: You know, think of like a Jim Harbaugh, who just 513 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 3: got a. 514 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 5: Win last night in Brazil, a reigning AFC champs, the Chiefs. 515 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 5: He's the Chargers head coach right now. When he was 516 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 5: at Stanford, it took a couple of years. It took 517 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 5: him a couple of years to build up that program, 518 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 5: to get his players, his philosophy, get a couple of 519 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 5: core guys, and get himself a quarterback like Andrew Luck 520 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,840 Speaker 5: to get that program really humming. To your point about 521 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 5: Belichick and Tom Brady, I think that debate will just 522 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 5: run on for the rest of humanity. You know, it's 523 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 5: the chicken or the egg. I mean it really is. 524 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 5: You know who's more important to the Patriots dynasty. I 525 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,239 Speaker 5: think they were equally important. I do think you need 526 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 5: to have players to win games, So I'll always give 527 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 5: the edge to the player. But in the case of Belichick, 528 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,159 Speaker 5: like every other football coach, you look great when you 529 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 5: have a great quarterback and their quarterback had a back 530 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:31,320 Speaker 5: injury in the third quarter. He's uncertain to start this 531 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 5: upcoming weekend, and you know, and you have this this 532 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 5: situation where they outside of the opening drive, they look 533 00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 5: pretty poor. They have a lot to clean up communication 534 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 5: wise and execution wise. 535 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll be honest, I think there's a big difference 536 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 6: between what Brady. You know, my opinions on the Brady 537 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:57,400 Speaker 6: Belichick thing has definitely swayed over the years. I love Bill, honestly. 538 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 6: I do think he's a great coach. He deserves all 539 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 6: the all the accolades. But I just disagree with a 540 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 6: lot of the things that he's done later on in 541 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 6: his career. And I think this one is is going 542 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 6: to be one that he will maybe regret. He didn't need. 543 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 6: He didn't need this like this is he wanted to 544 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 6: he had something left to prove. Yeah, he had something 545 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 6: left to prove. And I guess it's maybe just the 546 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,640 Speaker 6: you know, the mindset of a great competitor, Like he 547 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 6: just didn't like how the Patriots thing ended, and he 548 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 6: had something, he had that fire left to prove. Now 549 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 6: he might something might say, well he's you know, he's 550 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:42,040 Speaker 6: kind of getting himself out there in the entertainment world. 551 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 6: That I think is the more unique part of this. 552 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 6: That's the most unique part of all this, guys, is 553 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 6: it's all about right like and rich you play for him. 554 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 6: It's focus, eliminate distractions. It's you know, we're on to Cincinnati, 555 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 6: We're on to Charlotte. And why writing a book, like like, 556 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:06,360 Speaker 6: why all the pomp and circumstance around this new venture 557 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 6: if it really is just about football. I think there 558 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:15,959 Speaker 6: are some questions I have about some of the extracurricular stuff. 559 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 6: And that's where if you are if your brand is 560 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 6: no distractions, all business, this is not on brand for you. 561 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 6: That's the part about the unc situation. That's why the 562 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 6: first bet I made, I made it. I'll check my sheet. 563 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 6: I made it back on June ninth, the first college 564 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 6: football bet I made North Carolina under seven and a 565 00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 6: half wins. Because I'm looking around at all this mess 566 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 6: and this like you know, noise, and I'm like, this 567 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 6: is not the Bill Belichick that I remember torturing my 568 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 6: Jets for years it's just not the same guy. And 569 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 6: that's the part about all this that I'm like, where 570 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 6: is that? Like, who body snatched Bill Belichick to? Where's 571 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 6: dating this? You know, former Miss Maine and going around 572 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 6: doing book deals Like It's just it's weird. It's it's 573 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 6: like bizarro Bill. I don't get it, and I do 574 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 6: think at some point it's going to impact his ability 575 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:21,080 Speaker 6: to coach and evaluate talent. There's only so much time 576 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 6: in the day you can't spend. This is the problem 577 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 6: I have with sometimes when we see a lot of 578 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,719 Speaker 6: these athletes in season doing their podcasts and their shows. 579 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,479 Speaker 6: How do you have this much time? I can barely 580 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 6: keep up with the content. And I'm not a professional athlete. 581 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 6: So it's just it's crazy that this is the path 582 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 6: we've gone down with Belichick. 583 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 1: But here we are, all right, we got to get 584 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: to trash talking head coaches real fast. How about Mike Gundhy, 585 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: Oklahoma state head coach. They're taking on Oregon today and 586 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: during his radio interview, he said, Oh, Oregon, they spent 587 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: close to forty million dollars last year alone on its roster. 588 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:00,959 Speaker 1: And so Dan Lanning, the Oregon head coach, he heard 589 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: about this, and he said, hey, if you want to 590 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 1: be a top ten football team in college football, you 591 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: better be invested in winning. We spend to win. And 592 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: then of course he was asked about Mike Gundy's comments, right, 593 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: Gundhy's like, oh, those Oregon Ducks are spending forty million 594 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 1: bucks on last year's roster alone. So Dan Lanning's response 595 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 1: to that, and I love this. He kind of stopped himself. 596 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: He's like, some people save to have an excuse for 597 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: why they don't. I can't speak on their situation. I 598 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 1: have no idea what they got in their pockets over there. 599 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: He started to say, well, hey, he's got excuses why 600 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: they don't get the job done. 601 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 4: I guess I don't know what to tell. 602 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 1: He stopped a little bit, but the message is still delivered, right, 603 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: And kind of interesting backdrop when we've got Oregon favored 604 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: by four touchdowns, but something like this with Gundhy like, yeah, 605 00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 1: they win because they spend all that money. It's one 606 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: of those little things where you always talk about the 607 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 1: old school bulletin board material. I mean, when you're a 608 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 1: four touchdown favorite, don't be surprise they win by five, 609 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: six touchdowns. 610 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 4: After something like that, no doubt. 611 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 5: I always ask myself why when I hear somebody say something, 612 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,200 Speaker 5: especially if it's controversial or it's unique, and it's unique 613 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 5: when a coach does something like this, like says the 614 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 5: quiet parts out loud. 615 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 3: So why did my Gundhy do it? I think he 616 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 3: did it for a couple of reasons. 617 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 5: But do I think that he's trying to get under 618 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 5: the skin of his you know, opponent coach? 619 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 3: Yeah? 620 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 5: Maybe, But do I think it's more to send a 621 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 5: message to the boosters and the donors of the Oklahoma 622 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 5: state program one hundred percent Read between the lines here. 623 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 5: What he's saying is, Hey, guess why we're for touchdown underdogs. 624 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 5: It's because y'all won't spend so until you reach into 625 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 5: your pockets and you take those boxing gloves off. When 626 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 5: I'm saying, hey, I need you to help me buy 627 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 5: players here in Oklahoma, don't expect me to face a 628 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 5: top ten team in the country and have good results. 629 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 5: It's exactly what's happening here. It's less about Dan Lamb 630 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 5: and Mike Gundhy, and it's more about Mike Gundhy and 631 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 5: the donor and boosters of his football program. 632 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 6: Nailed it. Nailed it. And that's the part about these 633 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 6: coaches that I think we don't fully understand is the 634 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 6: I don't think Mike was talking to Dan or Oregon 635 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 6: in that scenario. I think these coaches are really good 636 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 6: and I wrote this up in my preview, I said, 637 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,240 Speaker 6: I think these coaches are really good at motivating their 638 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 6: own teams, and I think sometimes they are blind to 639 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 6: the impact it has on other teams. For a good reason. 640 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 6: I don't think Mike Gundy cares much about what Dan 641 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 6: Lanning says to his team before the game. That's not 642 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 6: like when you're in your masculine state like these head 643 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 6: coaches are. You are focused on your purpose and your 644 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 6: message with your team and you don't really care what 645 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 6: it does to the other team. And I think these coaches, 646 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 6: the best of the best of these coaches can get 647 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 6: the most out of their kids and their program. And 648 00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 6: that's what the message was. And also fact check, like, 649 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 6: they're not spending forty million, they're spending twenty So it 650 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 6: wasn't even true what he was saying, Like it was 651 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 6: such a it was such an exaggeration that it was 652 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 6: not a shot at Oregon. It was a way to 653 00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 6: get his boys fired up, and then Dan took it 654 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 6: and tried to get his boys fired up, Like I 655 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 6: think these coaches are elite motivators and that was the 656 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 6: whole motivation behind what they said. 657 00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: Right, And he also said, Mike Gundy, he said that 658 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:27,320 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State spent around seven million dollars on its team 659 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 1: over the past three years. That doesn't seem correct either. No, 660 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,320 Speaker 1: that that little over three years, right. 661 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,120 Speaker 6: Team Mooon Pickens was opening up the wallet left and 662 00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 6: right for this team.

They are hosting 690 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 6: Illinois today and this is a fishy line. Illinois top 691 00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:19,320 Speaker 6: fifteen team and the spreads two and a half against Duke. 692 00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 6: The Dukies are a basketball school. Not so fast, my friends, 693 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 6: shout out leak corse so Manny Diaz undefeated against the 694 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 6: spread as a dog of seven or last last year 695 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 6: went four and oh with four outright upsets. Pretty impressive. Again, 696 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 6: tight line today. I don't trust Illinois. We talked about this, 697 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 6: I think multiple times on the show the last few 698 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 6: weeks when we've been bringing up these sleeper teams. I 699 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 6: am not buying the Illinois hyde and I think this 700 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 6: Blue Devil's defense especially, is gonna shut down the run. 701 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 6: We know Beilama loves to play bully ball, but I'm 702 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,360 Speaker 6: not buying it. I think Duke at Home on Tobacco 703 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,919 Speaker 6: Road gets an upset win. I will put Duke money line. 704 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 6: It is plus one point fifteen currently at a MGM 705 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 6: first leg of the parlay player get a little boosted 706 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:06,120 Speaker 6: odds there for you guys. 707 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:11,440 Speaker 5: All right, give me UNLV on the money line taking 708 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,760 Speaker 5: on and hosting UCLA today. 709 00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 3: Okay, so let's break this down. 710 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 5: UCLA gets absolutely throttled against Utah a week ago as 711 00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 5: the I Am Leappa, the the the a new era 712 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 5: quarterback begins for the Bruins. And then you look at 713 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 5: and you'll help me with the name here, Jared, it's Calandria. 714 00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:35,760 Speaker 3: Right at quarterback. 715 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, Yeahlbny Kalandria Anthony Kolandria. 716 00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 5: Klandria spent two years at Virginia and he started his 717 00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 5: two games at UNLV throwing seventy seven. 718 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 3: Percent completion grade on forty four. Man, this guy looks good. 719 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,120 Speaker 3: They look pretty sharp. Two big wins. 720 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:58,760 Speaker 5: Look, it's Idaho State and it's Sam Houston, but still 721 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 5: they got a couple wins on to their belt. I 722 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,120 Speaker 5: think they're gonna have a much steeper climb on the road. 723 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 5: The Bruins will against the Rebels hosting, So I like 724 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:08,399 Speaker 5: the money line here. 725 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 1: Okay, let's go. 726 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 4: Look at you get. 727 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 6: I'll be in the building tonight. I will be in 728 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 6: the building tonight for that game. Let's go. 729 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,240 Speaker 1: You know the ReBs always get up when Jared Smith 730 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: is in the building. 731 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, well they got beaten by Boise last year. When 732 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 6: I went to the last game, that. 733 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:30,799 Speaker 4: Was all yeah, a body experience. So yeah, you're in 734 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 4: the building. 735 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, new coach, new vibe. 736 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, I'm gonna go with your Penn State 737 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: Nitney Lyons. Let's go right, like a couple of reasons. 738 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,280 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna take a minus forty one and a half. 739 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,840 Speaker 1: It's gone back and forth. It's it's up to forty 740 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:48,720 Speaker 1: two and a half right now, But give me forty 741 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 1: one and a half. It's minus a dollar thirty. It's 742 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: not that big of a penalty and it might come 743 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: into play, right, You don't want to get hooked. It 744 00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,320 Speaker 1: would be a shame if they win by six touchdowns 745 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: and you get hold looked. So I'll get under that 746 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: with forty one and a half and put a little 747 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:07,440 Speaker 1: bit extra juice on there minus a dollar thirty. Listen, 748 00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: their defense is fantastic. If you know how talented ther fi, 749 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: he is going to have a hard time moving the ball, 750 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,840 Speaker 1: let alone scoring. And isn't this the way it goes? 751 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 6: Right? 752 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 4: Jared? 753 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 1: You had your Nitney Lions in rapid fire last week 754 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 1: and it looked like the right side and there's a 755 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: touchdown at the end and it's not. And of course 756 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 1: I don't know what it is with gambling, where just 757 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: to tick you off a little bit more, they'll be 758 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,760 Speaker 1: gangbusters today, you know, and they'll cover the spread. 759 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 4: And it's like, why. 760 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 1: Couldn't they have done that like last time they were playing. 761 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 1: So give me a gimme Penn State minus the forty 762 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:42,280 Speaker 1: one and a half. 763 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:44,240 Speaker 2: I like this parlay. 764 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 6: We got Penn State. We know that they love to cover, 765 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 6: and I'm sure games. Franklin took some heat for not 766 00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 6: covering last week. We got Duke on the money line, 767 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:56,520 Speaker 6: a home dog against the Alni. We are not buying 768 00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 6: the fighting a Lini this year, guys. And we got 769 00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 6: the Rabs home dog against UCLA. This is this is 770 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 6: a parlay platter. At its core, it's Penn State and 771 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:08,360 Speaker 6: it's two home dogs. We love it plus six seventy 772 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:12,160 Speaker 6: nine over at bet MGM. It's hitting bet it now, 773 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 6: it's hitting kid. 774 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:17,800 Speaker 1: It's almost seven to one. That's great approaching. 775 00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 6: It got a nice little little nugget for you to 776 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,440 Speaker 6: start the day, although you have to wait to the 777 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:23,960 Speaker 6: end of the day to cash because that's when the 778 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 6: UNLB game is. 779 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 1: How about it cashing at the end while you're in 780 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 1: the building. 781 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 6: That would be awesome. Huh right, I will buy the 782 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 6: entire stadium a hot dog. Just kidding. Very expensive at 783 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,880 Speaker 6: Allegiant Stadium, very expensive. Everything is expensive in Vegas. 784 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 4: I have to retract that immediately, you know, all right? 785 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:43,360 Speaker 4: Coming up next a. 786 00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:48,480 Speaker 1: Couple of ranked teams on the road against unranked teams. Doom, oh, 787 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:52,240 Speaker 1: what is going on? We are knee deep in ball 788 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 1: here today. So much football to discuss we will next 789 00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:00,240 Speaker 1: hour get to Week one of the NFL, the tastiest matchups. 790 00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: Some injury news over there, but we're staying focused on 791 00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,280 Speaker 1: college football right now. How about a couple of ranked 792 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: teams on the road against unranked teams. Sometimes that can 793 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: spell doom. But first game we're looking at is number 794 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 1: eleven Illinois on the road against Duke And Jared, you 795 00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 1: just laid it out last segment, the parlay platter. You 796 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:25,959 Speaker 1: like you like the Donkies over here? They've been they've 797 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 1: been quietly really good at home under Manny Diaz at 798 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: what The only games they've lost are twelve and two 799 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 1: at home. The only games that they you know, lost 800 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 1: one score of games that was against Notre Dame and 801 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 1: also SMU. Otherwise they've been really really good at home. 802 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,360 Speaker 1: And Illinois they've got some injuries. Their wide receiving corps 803 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: is banged up quite a bit. So yeah, hey, I 804 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,080 Speaker 1: there's more than enough reason to back the Dukies. With 805 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,879 Speaker 1: a weird line. There's a stinky line over there. Yeah, 806 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, like Jared said, top fifteen team, only a 807 00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: two and a half point point favorite on the road. 808 00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 1: That's like you ever smell milk? That's you know eight 809 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 1: days old. You smell it, You're like, whoa look away 810 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 1: right real fast? You know That's how I feel about 811 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 1: this point spread here. 812 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,759 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I want to hand this off quickly to 813 00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 5: Jared because he's a big believer in this. 814 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,000 Speaker 3: Brought it to the parlay platter. 815 00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:22,000 Speaker 5: But just a little stat to further the point you 816 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 5: just made about being good at home. Duke football has 817 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 5: been the best team at home in the ACC over 818 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:33,359 Speaker 5: the last three seasons. They're seventeen and three in their 819 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:38,880 Speaker 5: last twenty home games. So yeah, they definitely deserve some 820 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:43,520 Speaker 5: love on the betting line as the line I go 821 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,680 Speaker 5: down to Durham. What about this matchup though, Jared specifically 822 00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,840 Speaker 5: stuck out to you because, as Brian put it perfectly, 823 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 5: the number stinks. 824 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's twofold. Let's start with the ALIGNI offense against 825 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 6: the Duke defense. So we know Illinois loves to run 826 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 6: the ball, right, ilam a bully ball, That's what they 827 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:04,839 Speaker 6: love to do. Well, Duke is great at stopping the run. 828 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 6: They were a top team in the country last year 829 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 6: allowing less than four yards per game on the ground. 830 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 6: So that right there stuck stood out to me. Now, 831 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 6: Illinois does have an intriguing prospect at receiver. Hank Beatty 832 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:21,240 Speaker 6: had a breakout game last week. I know they faced 833 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 6: Western Illinois, but he looked good. But Duke's got two 834 00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,480 Speaker 6: elite corners. Chandler River is a preseason All American and 835 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 6: Kamari Robinson on the other sides in his third year. 836 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 6: So they have two experienced corners that I think are 837 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,440 Speaker 6: comfortable playing man to man being on an island with 838 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 6: the ALIGNI receivers, which will allow Duke to really focus 839 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 6: on stopping the run. Alt Meyer is a big scrambler. 840 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,640 Speaker 6: He loves to use his legs. They've got two other backs, 841 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 6: Laffery and Fagan that are solid. I mean, Illinois can 842 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,279 Speaker 6: run the ball. Again, that's their identity. So I think 843 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 6: Duke kind of like we saw with Texas last week, right, 844 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 6: They're not going to commit. They're not going to be 845 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,479 Speaker 6: forced to commit extra bodies in the box to shut 846 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 6: down the run because they feel comfortable with their secondary 847 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,600 Speaker 6: playing man to man in the back. So I think 848 00:44:04,640 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 6: they're going to be very effective at stopping the run 849 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 6: in this game. The other side of the ball that's 850 00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:12,320 Speaker 6: fascinating to me is the Duke offense got lit sizzle 851 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:16,360 Speaker 6: to it. Jack has more back running back, excuse me. 852 00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 6: And then at receiver they got this Harvard transfer. How 853 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 6: about that? How about Duke getting a Harvard transfer receiver? 854 00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:28,080 Speaker 6: Cooper Barkate was fantastic last week for the Blue Devils. 855 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 6: So this is why you pay Darien Mensa ten mil 856 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,920 Speaker 6: over two years for this kind of game. You know 857 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 6: you're at home against the rank team, the A line. 858 00:44:37,200 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 6: I had gotten all the butt all I've heard all 859 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,760 Speaker 6: off season, the aligne I are going to the college 860 00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 6: football playoff. All right, prove it, Luke Altmeyer, go down 861 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,919 Speaker 6: to Duke and go get a win. Because the number 862 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 6: right now is telling me this is going to be 863 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 6: a real tight game. Because it was plus I got 864 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 6: plus three and a half earlier. 865 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 3: In the week. 866 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 6: Those are long gone. It was plus three for a 867 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 6: long portion of time. Now we're seeing two and a half. 868 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 6: So this is a real And again when you get 869 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 6: through that key number of three, that means there is 870 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 6: significant money coming in on Duke. A lot of smart 871 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 6: people think the Dukies are gonna play well today. 872 00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:12,759 Speaker 1: You know what's funny to me this game with a 873 00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: number eleven Illinois at Duke. This would be a nice 874 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 1: win for either team, but it wouldn't buy either much respectability, 875 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,160 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, if Illinois wins his 876 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 1: top fifteen team, it's like, that's kind of what you're 877 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 1: supposed to do, right. If Duke wins, it's like, nice 878 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 1: win against Illinois, who's number eleven. It's not one of 879 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:35,200 Speaker 1: the big boys in the Big Ten. You know, if 880 00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 1: you beat Illinois, that's not all of a sudden gonna 881 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:40,080 Speaker 1: put Duke on the map, you know what I mean. 882 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 1: But Manny Diaz again has done a really nice job, 883 00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 1: and this would be a nice win, even though it 884 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't buy him a ton of respect Yeah. 885 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:46,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 886 00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 5: You know what's interesting about the Illiini in front of 887 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 5: Altmeyer is all five returning starting offensive lineman, which really 888 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 5: helps against a Duke team that struggle against the run 889 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 5: a little bit. So it look defense and especially run 890 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 5: game travel. So when you're in a situation like this 891 00:46:06,960 --> 00:46:10,360 Speaker 5: and you're the ALIGNI, you're on the road. It's a 892 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:12,880 Speaker 5: Duke team that has been great at home. How do 893 00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 5: you a quiet a. 894 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,279 Speaker 3: Crowd, Well, take you take the air out of the game. 895 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,720 Speaker 5: You know, you run the football, You impose your will 896 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 5: with guys with experience up front, and you don't make 897 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:26,279 Speaker 5: this about your quarterback. You make this about your offensive line. 898 00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:28,920 Speaker 5: You make this about the trenches and try to dirty 899 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 5: up this game as much as possible. Uh yeah, And 900 00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 5: to your point that you just made in terms of 901 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 5: the win, if Duke wins at home on a discount spread, 902 00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 5: kind of you think to yourself, well, yeah, of course 903 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,239 Speaker 5: the home dogs won. They've they've done a great job 904 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 5: defending their home turf in the Diaz era, and even 905 00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 5: before that, if you look at the align, I yeah, 906 00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 5: of course they won on the road. They're a ranked 907 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:58,440 Speaker 5: team heading into an acc back. Of course they should 908 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,160 Speaker 5: have won. So I I do think this is a 909 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 5: little bit of a wash. It's I feel very neutral 910 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:06,840 Speaker 5: about the outcome of this game, but I do think 911 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,520 Speaker 5: I do think Duke may have their hands full if 912 00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 5: then I imposed the run on them early and have 913 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 5: early success. 914 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:20,000 Speaker 6: Totally agree. I think that this will be one of 915 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 6: those games where Beelim is just he's itching to run 916 00:47:25,800 --> 00:47:28,240 Speaker 6: the ball on this team. I will say one thing though, 917 00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 6: after watching Northwestern just throttle Western Illinois last night, I 918 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,840 Speaker 6: don't know how good that fifty I think it was 919 00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:38,920 Speaker 6: fifty two to three. God fact check me on that 920 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 6: final score last week between Illinois and Western Illinois, Brian, 921 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 6: I think it was fifty two to three. Yeah, Northwestern 922 00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 6: won forty nine to seven last night. So again, is 923 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 6: Illinois and Northwestern on the same page here? Because those 924 00:47:56,080 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 6: score lines seem a little bit similar to me. I 925 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,040 Speaker 6: was not buying the Illinois hype all off season. I 926 00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:08,880 Speaker 6: wasn't buying it, and I'm not buying it now, And 927 00:48:08,920 --> 00:48:12,239 Speaker 6: the market's telling me that Illinois deserves no respect. So 928 00:48:12,360 --> 00:48:15,120 Speaker 6: until the market tells me that Illinois deserves my respect, 929 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:17,480 Speaker 6: I'm not gonna give him my respect now if they 930 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 6: go down and like it's just I am a slave 931 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 6: to the market. The market tells me who I should 932 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,160 Speaker 6: be paying attention to right now. If you see a 933 00:48:26,200 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 6: top fifteen team as a two and a half point 934 00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:33,319 Speaker 6: favorite against Duke, that's telling me that team is not 935 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 6: getting a lot of love by the odds makers. So 936 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 6: until they give me a reason to pay attention, I 937 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:45,320 Speaker 6: am gonna have to rely on my handicapping, which says 938 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:49,440 Speaker 6: Duke can stop the run. Manny Diaz loves the underdog 939 00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 6: role and Illinois is gonna have a big step up 940 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,239 Speaker 6: in class this week. They ain't faced in the leathernecks 941 00:48:56,239 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 6: of WYU. Today they're facing the Blue Devils. 942 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, another ranked team on the road against 943 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:07,400 Speaker 1: an unranked squad that would be number twenty ole miss 944 00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 1: at Kentucky. 945 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 4: We'll get a little SEC. 946 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 1: Showdown over here, all right, Maybe showdowns a little bit 947 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,640 Speaker 1: too much, we get an SEC matchup, you know, maybe 948 00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 1: Gowite Soda. But you look at this game and the 949 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 1: under is ticked down a little bit. It was at 950 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 1: fifty two and a half now it's fifty and a 951 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:28,560 Speaker 1: half and juiced to the under. And a couple of 952 00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,920 Speaker 1: reasons why. One that stands out just last week Kentucky 953 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 1: against Toledo, they didn't do much of anything offensively, The 954 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,399 Speaker 1: only averaged four point six yards per play. They had 955 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:44,880 Speaker 1: two turnovers against Toledo. That's the yikes. And also Kentucky 956 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,240 Speaker 1: plays pretty solid defense. 957 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:50,320 Speaker 4: So it's the best of both worlds. 958 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:53,760 Speaker 1: If you're looking to the under, you're looking at Kentucky's defense, 959 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,879 Speaker 1: and you're also looking at Kentucky's offense to hopefully keep 960 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:59,279 Speaker 1: the game under fifty and a half if that's your 961 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 1: angle here. But at least it makes sense why it's 962 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: ticked down throughout the week. 963 00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I think it all comes down to Kentucky defensively. 964 00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:11,359 Speaker 3: We'll see how they hold up. 965 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,400 Speaker 5: You know, it's interesting how certain teams early in the 966 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:18,400 Speaker 5: season you can kind of see how their season's gonna go, 967 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,279 Speaker 5: whether they're led by one side of the ball or 968 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 5: they're sort of led by the weaknesses they're trying to 969 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:29,080 Speaker 5: hold up on. And I think if Kentucky's defense can 970 00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 5: hold the line against Ole Miss, I mean, this could 971 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 5: be a long, hard day for the Kiffins, the fighting 972 00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:39,319 Speaker 5: Kiffins out there. We'll see though, I mean, some much 973 00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:41,439 Speaker 5: different challenge than they have week one. 974 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:42,759 Speaker 3: Yeah. 975 00:50:42,800 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 6: I like this Austin Simmons kid. I'll tell you that 976 00:50:46,640 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 6: he is a unique story. Go read about Austin Simmons's 977 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:55,320 Speaker 6: upbringing and he was homeschooled, grew up in South Florida, 978 00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:57,960 Speaker 6: then went to Flanning and High School in Pepperck Pines, 979 00:50:57,960 --> 00:50:59,840 Speaker 6: which is my old stomping grounds, and that, you know, 980 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,279 Speaker 6: Florida Neck of the Woods. I grew up down there, 981 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:07,280 Speaker 6: graduated early. I think he's already got his bachelor's degree. 982 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:08,359 Speaker 6: He's nineteen years old. 983 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:08,879 Speaker 3: Wow. 984 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:13,239 Speaker 6: He is a really unique kid. Lefty quarterback. As a 985 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:15,720 Speaker 6: fellow lefty I can tell you we think with different 986 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 6: the different side of our brain. We are smarter than 987 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:22,720 Speaker 6: everyone else. I'm sorry, we just are. There's a certain 988 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:26,359 Speaker 6: level of confidence and intelligence that he plays the game 989 00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 6: with that I really like. I know they beat Georgia 990 00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,719 Speaker 6: State last week. I'm not going to over over you know, 991 00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:36,080 Speaker 6: emphasize that, but I'm down on Kentucky. I mean, I 992 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,400 Speaker 6: was on Toledo last week. I thought they had a 993 00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 6: chance to win that game out right. There were a 994 00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,160 Speaker 6: couple of spots where I was like, Toledo is making 995 00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 6: it interesting against Kentucky. I would probably lay it in 996 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 6: this one. You're seeing a you know, it came off 997 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 6: of the ten. It looks like it opened nine, jumped 998 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:55,800 Speaker 6: to ten and a half. Now it's back to nine. 999 00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:56,839 Speaker 6: I think at nine. 1000 00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:59,240 Speaker 4: You bet on this interesting? 1001 00:51:59,280 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 6: All right? 1002 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:03,360 Speaker 1: We've got Rich Ornberger, Penn State, All American, Jared Smith 1003 00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: FSR betting analyst. 1004 00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:06,080 Speaker 4: I'm Brian No. 1005 00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 1: Register with BETMGM to get instant access to the best 1006 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:12,920 Speaker 1: variety of parlay selection features, no sweat and boost tokens, 1007 00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:14,840 Speaker 1: live betting options. 1008 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 4: And much more. 1009 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 1: New players can receive up to fifteen hundred dollars back 1010 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,959 Speaker 1: in bonus bets with bonus code countdown.

Good morning to you, Seamus. All Right, we 1038 00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:47,359 Speaker 1: got one ranked versus ranked, so we might as well 1039 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:52,440 Speaker 1: look at it right, fifteen ranked Michigan against number eighteen Oklahoma. 1040 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,680 Speaker 1: Anything that you like in this game. You're a man 1041 00:53:55,680 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 1: of strong opinions. Any strong opinions in this one, it's 1042 00:54:00,280 --> 00:54:00,960 Speaker 1: going to be back on. 1043 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:05,320 Speaker 8: Well, it's an interesting one. I mean this line opened 1044 00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 8: around three two and a half and it's been been 1045 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:11,799 Speaker 8: up to five and a half. Later in the week, 1046 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,920 Speaker 8: we moved down a touch to a juice four and 1047 00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 8: a half on Oklahoma. It's pretty rock solid traffic on 1048 00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:23,239 Speaker 8: Michigan right now spreading money line. I kind of agree. 1049 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,160 Speaker 8: I think this might be too much. I wasn't super 1050 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:30,240 Speaker 8: impressive the Sooners last week. I think Michigan is probably 1051 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:31,959 Speaker 8: going to take the air of this ball a lot. 1052 00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:35,320 Speaker 8: Trying to make this a little easier for Bryce Underwood. 1053 00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:40,399 Speaker 8: But I get to have a strong opinion on this game, 1054 00:54:40,440 --> 00:54:42,319 Speaker 8: but if I haven't, if I have a lean, i'd 1055 00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:43,719 Speaker 8: probably lean Michigan. 1056 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:47,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, I agree. I think the only concern for me 1057 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 6: Seamus is Underwood and the moment being too big for 1058 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,319 Speaker 6: him on the road, and you know at Boomer Soonerville. 1059 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,279 Speaker 6: We'll see if he can handle that. But if he can, 1060 00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 6: I'll be honest, I think he's the better quarterback in 1061 00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:00,680 Speaker 6: this game. I love Matier, but I didn't like what 1062 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 6: I saw last week. The mechanics are a little wonky. 1063 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 6: We just talked about Illinois at Duke, right, this is 1064 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:09,560 Speaker 6: a fishy line kind of game. You think Illinois is 1065 00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 6: live because you know of all the height they've gotten 1066 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 6: this year and they're a contender in the CFP blah 1067 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:17,560 Speaker 6: blah blah, but the market's giving them no respect here, 1068 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 6: less than a field goal favorite at Duke. I think 1069 00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:22,719 Speaker 6: Duke is a very live dog in this spot. Manidiez 1070 00:55:22,880 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 6: loves this underdog role. What do you think about this 1071 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:27,320 Speaker 6: one down in the ACC. 1072 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:31,839 Speaker 8: Yeah, I like Duke today. It's been a lot of 1073 00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 8: Illinois money too, and this line really hasn't budged much 1074 00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:38,200 Speaker 8: at all. I think you're right, this line is kind 1075 00:55:38,200 --> 00:55:41,880 Speaker 8: of fishy today. But I think this should be closer 1076 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 8: to a pick honestly with Duke Wow. 1077 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:48,319 Speaker 5: Hey, Seamus, anything happen over the past two weeks, Week 1078 00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 5: zero or Week one that has really influenced batting lines, 1079 00:55:52,120 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 5: even futures heading into week two here, I mean. 1080 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:01,240 Speaker 8: We're still trying to get our feet throughout the season. 1081 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 8: I've taken a lot of money on you know, some 1082 00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 8: LSU national title. Uh, people are starting to maybe stayed, 1083 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:14,800 Speaker 8: you know Texas on the futures. It's just a lot 1084 00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:18,440 Speaker 8: of you know, early quick reactions. The season is so long, 1085 00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:21,920 Speaker 8: Like everyone freaked out about arch Manning last week and 1086 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:25,920 Speaker 8: it's probably the toughest game he's going to play this season. So, 1087 00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:28,520 Speaker 8: I mean, it's it's still just so hard to gauge, 1088 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 8: just like what's real and what's not that we've see 1089 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:33,760 Speaker 8: through like the best the last couple of weeks. 1090 00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,239 Speaker 1: You know, I think of you with the week like this, 1091 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 1: because of all the FCS teams that are playing, it 1092 00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 1: just screams with Seamus McGee, right, is there like an 1093 00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:47,720 Speaker 1: FCS versus FBS matchup that you like the most today? 1094 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:52,680 Speaker 8: Well, there's two. One is my official play, but the 1095 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,400 Speaker 8: other one I'm going with right now is your classic, 1096 00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,400 Speaker 8: like under single digit point favorite, if that is only 1097 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 8: laying about touchdown at home against Sacramento State. I think 1098 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 8: Sacramento State's live in that game. Just whenever you look 1099 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,359 Speaker 8: at those games the FCS teams, they didn't win these 1100 00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:13,640 Speaker 8: games a lot more than they don't, So I think 1101 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:15,719 Speaker 8: Sacramento State definitely live in that one. 1102 00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, you make a good point about the Texas thing. 1103 00:57:19,160 --> 00:57:22,760 Speaker 6: I think the problem that Arch has is that we've 1104 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:25,320 Speaker 6: hyped him up so much in the media that if 1105 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 6: he plays average, it's like the you know, the end 1106 00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:32,200 Speaker 6: is near. People forget that that that was really his 1107 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 6: first big time start in college football and he was 1108 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,160 Speaker 6: facing a Matt Patricia defense that I think is going 1109 00:57:37,200 --> 00:57:40,480 Speaker 6: to be very good this year. Speaking of defense, we 1110 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,000 Speaker 6: love when Iowa and Iowa State play each other because 1111 00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:45,600 Speaker 6: we don't expect a lot of offense. However, I was 1112 00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:48,720 Speaker 6: shocked Seamus that the total in this game started with 1113 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 6: a four. How about that? Are we going to see 1114 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 6: a shootout then the Syawk today? Yeah? 1115 00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 8: How about that? It's I hate a funny one. I'm 1116 00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 8: seeing a lot of people like me over this year too. Well, personally, 1117 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:03,880 Speaker 8: I'm probably not gonna touch it, but I mean, as 1118 00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:07,320 Speaker 8: far as the game goes, it's pretty balanced. I'd say 1119 00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:11,000 Speaker 8: both sides. I mean not really a need on this game, 1120 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 8: and even the totals, like we're starting to see just 1121 00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,440 Speaker 8: balanced action. It's looking like a pretty good book in 1122 00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 8: that game for the house. 1123 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, early in the season, before we see 1124 00:58:20,280 --> 00:58:23,479 Speaker 5: a ton of these teams. I know I fall prey 1125 00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:26,400 Speaker 5: to this. I think we look at trends and I 1126 00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 5: just cited one, and I'm curious your thoughts on this. 1127 00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 5: So Duke football has the best home record in the 1128 00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:35,360 Speaker 5: ACC over the last three seasons. Taking on the road 1129 00:58:35,920 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 5: favorites the allion. I They're seventeen and three in their 1130 00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:45,080 Speaker 5: last twenty home games. So you look at that trend 1131 00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:49,640 Speaker 5: and you say, Okay, the number or I should say 1132 00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:51,520 Speaker 5: the spread push through a key number. 1133 00:58:52,160 --> 00:58:54,080 Speaker 3: It feels like you should take Duke. 1134 00:58:55,520 --> 00:58:58,920 Speaker 5: Explain to me, though, why trends sometimes can mislead you 1135 00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:00,960 Speaker 5: or do you believe in them early in the season. 1136 00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 8: I think trends matter in the right context. That trend 1137 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,640 Speaker 8: just tells me Duke's been a really solid home team 1138 00:59:09,840 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 8: last three years. Then it just it's another piece you 1139 00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:16,360 Speaker 8: can add to the puzzle you're trying to put apart 1140 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 8: to your your handicap here. I don't think it's a 1141 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 8: bad trend. I mean, it's just one of those things 1142 00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:24,000 Speaker 8: you gotta sample size matters, like how much does that 1143 00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:27,560 Speaker 8: Duke team last three years still on this team. That's 1144 00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:30,360 Speaker 8: the things you got to like factor in, especially in 1145 00:59:30,400 --> 00:59:33,440 Speaker 8: college football NFL. It might work with you know, coaches 1146 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 8: and whatnot if you have continuity, but this era of 1147 00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:39,560 Speaker 8: college football, you gotta be you gotta be really careful 1148 00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:41,600 Speaker 8: with the trends that you play, just because you know, 1149 00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,680 Speaker 8: if a trend goes back five years, how much does 1150 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 8: that matter if none of those guys were even playing 1151 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:50,880 Speaker 8: for the team back then. But I don't think that trend, 1152 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:53,160 Speaker 8: you know, is like, you know, just throwing out the 1153 00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:55,439 Speaker 8: window like it's useless. I mean, I think it does matter. 1154 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 8: This team is comfortable at home and they like playing there, 1155 00:59:57,440 --> 00:59:59,240 Speaker 8: and there's definitely a lot of guys on Duke Urse 1156 00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:01,680 Speaker 8: still of those teams that were really good at home. 1157 01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:06,200 Speaker 1: All right, Seamus, you are a master of the teas 1158 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:09,960 Speaker 1: right there. I've got two FCS teams in mind. I'm 1159 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 1: going to give you one of them right here and 1160 01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:15,800 Speaker 1: save it the other one from my Shamus Special here, 1161 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:17,120 Speaker 1: beautiful job by you. 1162 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:18,960 Speaker 3: Radio just. 1163 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 4: Stands up and applauds that. 1164 01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 1: So we got to know what's the shame of special 1165 01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,560 Speaker 1: you have circled here on the FCS level. 1166 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:29,680 Speaker 8: Well, I was tee it up with a great question 1167 01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:32,360 Speaker 8: about trends right before, and this is a trend I 1168 01:00:32,400 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 8: think that does kind of matter. Kirby Smart has never 1169 01:00:37,640 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 8: covered a forty point spread as the head coach of Georgia. 1170 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 8: It's almost an annual pick I do. 1171 01:00:43,520 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 3: I feel like. 1172 01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:47,640 Speaker 8: Every year on this show, give me the Governors of Austin. 1173 01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 8: T Wow, you can find a forty six and a half, 1174 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:53,080 Speaker 8: forty eight and a half maybe still hanging out there. 1175 01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 8: This team is coming off a twenty point win at 1176 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:59,600 Speaker 8: Middle Tennessee last week. I Kirby Swarting takes the foot 1177 01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:02,560 Speaker 8: off again a little bit. So we're just we're trusting 1178 01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:06,240 Speaker 8: the system and we're taking the Governor's Austin p plus 1179 01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:08,000 Speaker 8: forty eight and a half. I mean it is as 1180 01:01:08,000 --> 01:01:09,840 Speaker 8: good to forty six and a half. If if that's 1181 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:10,440 Speaker 8: all you can. 1182 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:14,880 Speaker 1: Get, that's beautiful, love it, awesome stuff, all right, Seamus. 1183 01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:17,479 Speaker 4: Good stuff has always been hope you enjoyed the day. 1184 01:01:17,720 --> 01:01:20,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you're gonna have to cope with no Notre 1185 01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:22,919 Speaker 1: Dame fighting Irish today, the only ranked team not in action. 1186 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 1: But I think you'll find it enough excitement. Man, Hope 1187 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 1: you enjoyed the day. 1188 01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,000 Speaker 8: Yeah, we'll take it. Just hold your nose, bet Austin P. 1189 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:31,680 Speaker 8: And then yeah, we'll call it a day. 1190 01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:32,280 Speaker 2: That's it. 1191 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:34,120 Speaker 6: That's all you need to know today, Austin P. 1192 01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, there it is. 1193 01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:38,800 Speaker 1: There is Seamus McGee, team lead of sports trading at 1194 01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 1: bet MGM. 1195 01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:41,040 Speaker 4: Always love hearing from him. 1196 01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 1: How about this this This is like the exact opposite 1197 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 1: of most of Seamus's plays. And I mean that as 1198 01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:50,760 Speaker 1: a compliment Seamus. If you look at I don't know, 1199 01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:54,160 Speaker 1: like his top five picks of this week or even 1200 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:59,040 Speaker 1: last week, it'd be like Austin P. It'd be Sacramento State, 1201 01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:02,240 Speaker 1: it'd be you know, like your nose specials. But how 1202 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:06,280 Speaker 1: about this last week, Week one of the college football season, 1203 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:11,720 Speaker 1: the five most bet sides by money total at betmgm. Right, 1204 01:02:11,800 --> 01:02:15,240 Speaker 1: the most money that's bet on these teams. All those 1205 01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:19,480 Speaker 1: favorites lost all of them, like the most popular bets. 1206 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:22,520 Speaker 1: If you I shouldn't say favorites because Texas was an underdog. 1207 01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 1: Everybody else was a favorite, but the most popular bets 1208 01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:28,880 Speaker 1: by money on BETMGM they all lost, So it was 1209 01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:33,720 Speaker 1: first was Texas plus one, and some schmucks on this 1210 01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 1: show were on that too. Alabama minus fourteen, they lost 1211 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:43,760 Speaker 1: outright Notre Dame minus three, they lost out right to 1212 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 1: Miami Clemson minus four, they lost out right at home 1213 01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:50,439 Speaker 1: to LSU, and then Indiana minus twenty four. They won 1214 01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,840 Speaker 1: but didn't cover the spread. So what I see that 1215 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:58,000 Speaker 1: every now and then and I'm like, what trap did 1216 01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:01,560 Speaker 1: the public fall into with all five of those picks? 1217 01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:04,520 Speaker 1: You know, because if you start thinking about it, you're like, well, 1218 01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:07,880 Speaker 1: those are all brand names, with the exception of Indiana. 1219 01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:10,959 Speaker 1: But it's like, well, okay, but Texas was playing Ohio State. 1220 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:15,600 Speaker 1: Ohio State, it's a brand name. LSU, they were Clemson's opponent. 1221 01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 1: LSU is also a brand name, so it can't just 1222 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:20,840 Speaker 1: be the brand name that. Do you see a common 1223 01:03:20,920 --> 01:03:23,960 Speaker 1: theme with those five teams? How of the most public 1224 01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:25,360 Speaker 1: sides they were all wrong. 1225 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:30,200 Speaker 5: What's interesting, Brian, is this happens all the time. It 1226 01:03:30,280 --> 01:03:35,440 Speaker 5: happens all the time where it's either a name you 1227 01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:38,560 Speaker 5: know or like you know, it's actually the reason why. 1228 01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:41,760 Speaker 5: On the parlay Platder, we were discussing it before we 1229 01:03:41,840 --> 01:03:44,960 Speaker 5: actually launched into the segment. Jared and I were having 1230 01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:48,280 Speaker 5: a side conversation about whether to take UNLV on the 1231 01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 5: money line or take the points, and it's like, yeah, 1232 01:03:50,400 --> 01:03:52,000 Speaker 5: I mean, if you believe in them and it's that 1233 01:03:52,080 --> 01:03:54,560 Speaker 5: short of a spread, just take them on the money line. 1234 01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 5: It's part of a parlor anyway, makes a little more 1235 01:03:56,600 --> 01:04:01,280 Speaker 5: interesting all those things. And I think it's the reason 1236 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:04,920 Speaker 5: what's drawn me to that game is it feels like 1237 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:08,960 Speaker 5: the only reason why that's spread isn't bigger or or 1238 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:12,600 Speaker 5: I should say even UNLV is favored in that game, 1239 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:14,320 Speaker 5: is because they're facing UCLA. 1240 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 3: Like it's just the name. 1241 01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:20,000 Speaker 5: If you're watching the football, you know UNLV is the 1242 01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:22,800 Speaker 5: better football team right now. They just are. They just 1243 01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:26,000 Speaker 5: are now. Should they win? I think so? I think so. 1244 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 5: So the money line is an easier bet when you 1245 01:04:27,720 --> 01:04:31,040 Speaker 5: feel that way. But that's what happens. We convince ourselves 1246 01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:33,800 Speaker 5: of narratives like look at all the money pouring in 1247 01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:37,000 Speaker 5: on the Broncos right now heading into the NFL weekend. 1248 01:04:37,280 --> 01:04:39,920 Speaker 5: You think about the reasons why cam Ward has been 1249 01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:42,880 Speaker 5: the quietest number one overall pick we've ever heard of 1250 01:04:43,280 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 5: Have you heard anything about cam Ward leading to the season. Nothing, 1251 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:50,280 Speaker 5: Nothing that gets me nervous. The public loves the Broncos 1252 01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:53,640 Speaker 5: take the dogs, you know what I'm saying, Like, it's like, 1253 01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:56,480 Speaker 5: it's those things, and so it makes sense. 1254 01:04:56,600 --> 01:04:58,800 Speaker 3: I should have smelled it coming. I was on the 1255 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:00,960 Speaker 3: wrong side of the Texas. I was thinking of myself 1256 01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:01,480 Speaker 3: the whole time. 1257 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,480 Speaker 5: I'm like, I can feel the avalanche coming downhill, but 1258 01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:05,800 Speaker 5: I couldn't stop myself. 1259 01:05:05,800 --> 01:05:07,320 Speaker 3: And I think a lot of people are like that. 1260 01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:13,480 Speaker 6: I agree. I also think that we do over emphasize 1261 01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,320 Speaker 6: the fade the public narrative a little bit. Yeah, I 1262 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:21,560 Speaker 6: think it's very fluky. It's five football games, like it 1263 01:05:21,760 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 6: just happened to go that way. I mean, let's be honest. 1264 01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 6: I think if you really dissect all of those games, 1265 01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:33,160 Speaker 6: those were very high profile games that were very coin flippy. Right, 1266 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:35,640 Speaker 6: what were the five again? It was was it? What 1267 01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:35,840 Speaker 6: was it? 1268 01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:41,640 Speaker 1: So Texas? Yeah, against Ohio State, Alabama, Alabama against Florida State. 1269 01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:44,240 Speaker 6: That one was That one was the one that was 1270 01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,480 Speaker 6: probably we should have, you know, picked. 1271 01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:49,480 Speaker 4: Up Notre Dame taken on Miami. 1272 01:05:49,080 --> 01:05:50,960 Speaker 6: One score game could have gone either way. 1273 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 1: Could have Yeah, no doubt Clemson taken on LS one score. 1274 01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:55,320 Speaker 6: Game could have gone either way. 1275 01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:59,080 Speaker 1: And then Indiana didn't cover as a twenty four point favorite. 1276 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:02,200 Speaker 6: That one's the outline that I think probably, you know, 1277 01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 6: on a normal week, probably wouldn't be in the top 1278 01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:09,000 Speaker 6: five plays. Those were all high profile games that were 1279 01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:12,320 Speaker 6: very close, other than the Alabama one. But even the 1280 01:06:12,360 --> 01:06:14,160 Speaker 6: Alabama one, I think it was just the spread was 1281 01:06:14,200 --> 01:06:16,160 Speaker 6: a little too high. I think Bama was in that game. 1282 01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:17,880 Speaker 6: They just shouldn't have been favored by two scores. They 1283 01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 6: probably should have been a one score favorite. I just 1284 01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 6: I think we grasp to narratives very quickly in the 1285 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:28,120 Speaker 6: betting and the football space. We're trying to find a 1286 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:30,560 Speaker 6: reason why we lost our bet. We're trying to find 1287 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:33,880 Speaker 6: a reason why this team won or lost, and it's 1288 01:06:33,920 --> 01:06:37,200 Speaker 6: easy to say, well, everybody was on them, so that's 1289 01:06:37,240 --> 01:06:42,080 Speaker 6: why they lost. Again, I think it's fair to say 1290 01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:46,760 Speaker 6: everyone was on them, that's why they weren't a great bet. 1291 01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 6: But that's not why they didn't lose the game. You 1292 01:06:50,360 --> 01:06:53,960 Speaker 6: think you think Texas, Yeah, you think Texas. Like, man, 1293 01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:56,960 Speaker 6: everyone's betting us today, We're gonna suck even more than 1294 01:06:56,960 --> 01:07:00,600 Speaker 6: we normally do. Like, it's just it's not the reason why. 1295 01:07:00,720 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 6: It is very explain like explanatory. Is that a word explanatory? 1296 01:07:05,520 --> 01:07:06,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know if that's a word or ound. 1297 01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:08,040 Speaker 6: Yeah. If that's a word, I'm going to use this 1298 01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:12,960 Speaker 6: explanatory explanatory. It is an explanatory way to describe the games. 1299 01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:17,240 Speaker 6: It is not predictive of what is actually going to happen, because, 1300 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:20,680 Speaker 6: for example, last year in the NFL, favorites and the 1301 01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:25,680 Speaker 6: public went crazy, so crazy that the major sports books 1302 01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:28,960 Speaker 6: had to lower their revenue guidance for the year because 1303 01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:33,360 Speaker 6: of quote unfavorable customer results. Aka, we lost a lot 1304 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:35,800 Speaker 6: of money on football in the fourth quarter of twenty 1305 01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:38,680 Speaker 6: twenty four, so we had to lower our revenue guidance. 1306 01:07:38,880 --> 01:07:40,760 Speaker 6: That's how good of a year it was for the 1307 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:44,200 Speaker 6: betting public in the NFL. Odds are probably not going 1308 01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:47,520 Speaker 6: to happen this year. But it just it's random. It's 1309 01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:50,320 Speaker 6: a ball that bounces in a weird way, and we're like, yep, 1310 01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:52,400 Speaker 6: that's the reason why. Because all the public was betting 1311 01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:55,600 Speaker 6: on and to bounce this way, but the gambling gods 1312 01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:57,320 Speaker 6: decided it was going to bounce the other way. 1313 01:07:57,480 --> 01:07:59,840 Speaker 4: No, that's in an interesting take. 1314 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:02,760 Speaker 1: I can't get it out and interesting take. It was 1315 01:08:02,800 --> 01:08:05,480 Speaker 1: so interesting I couldn't speak. I was blinded. But the 1316 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:07,520 Speaker 1: brilliant of that. No, but it's true. I think that 1317 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:11,760 Speaker 1: a lot of times that listen. It reminds me of 1318 01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:16,559 Speaker 1: Sports Center. Hang with me on this, because for years 1319 01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:21,640 Speaker 1: they would show a mistake pitch in baseball, and the 1320 01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,519 Speaker 1: mistake pitch like over the heart of the plate gets 1321 01:08:24,640 --> 01:08:27,559 Speaker 1: you know, driven out to left field four hundred and 1322 01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 1: fifty feet and they're like, uh, the pitch was supposed 1323 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 1: to be here. It was here right down the middle, 1324 01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 1: and wow, what. 1325 01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:34,680 Speaker 8: Do you know? 1326 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:35,240 Speaker 4: A home run? 1327 01:08:35,320 --> 01:08:36,960 Speaker 1: And I always used to get mad because I'm like, 1328 01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:40,160 Speaker 1: do you know how many mistake pitches are? Swings and 1329 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:44,360 Speaker 1: misses happens all the time, right, But we'll just be like, oh, 1330 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:46,040 Speaker 1: it was a mistake pitch, so that's why it was 1331 01:08:46,080 --> 01:08:48,599 Speaker 1: a home run. I mean maybe, but they made it 1332 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:52,760 Speaker 1: sound like it's a certainty. And what you're explaining, Jared is, yeah, 1333 01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 1: we can go a little bit too far over the 1334 01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:58,240 Speaker 1: top with all the publics on this team. Definitely go 1335 01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:02,120 Speaker 1: the other way. Here's breaking new. Sometimes the public teams wins, 1336 01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:05,760 Speaker 1: Like sometimes those public teams are the right side. And 1337 01:09:05,840 --> 01:09:08,679 Speaker 1: I think if I'm trying to figure out what these 1338 01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:11,760 Speaker 1: five picks had in common, and I think what they 1339 01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:16,520 Speaker 1: have in common is that was the more comfortable side, 1340 01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:18,120 Speaker 1: right and that. 1341 01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:20,599 Speaker 4: Doesn't mean that you're doomed to lose that bet. 1342 01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 1: But I think over time you'll see this, the more 1343 01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:27,320 Speaker 1: uncomfortable side is more times than not, the better way 1344 01:09:27,360 --> 01:09:29,840 Speaker 1: to go. Because if you look at those top five 1345 01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:35,320 Speaker 1: Texas you've got arch manning number one recruit versus Julian 1346 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:38,720 Speaker 1: saying that's not all the game was, but that was 1347 01:09:38,840 --> 01:09:40,880 Speaker 1: a part of it. I think Texas is a little 1348 01:09:40,920 --> 01:09:44,000 Speaker 1: bit more comfortable. Alabama is certainly more comfortable than a 1349 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:46,920 Speaker 1: Florida State team that was two to ten the season prior. 1350 01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 1: Notre Dame brand name just went to the National Championship 1351 01:09:51,439 --> 01:09:54,559 Speaker 1: game against Miami Mario christa ball. They seem to shrink 1352 01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:57,599 Speaker 1: in bigger moments. Notre Dame is the more comfortable side. 1353 01:09:57,600 --> 01:10:00,719 Speaker 1: Same thing with Clemson. LSU can't win as he's an opener. 1354 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 1: Clemson's at home, they're more comfortable, and I you, I 1355 01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:07,639 Speaker 1: think it was somewhat from the season prior and then 1356 01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:10,560 Speaker 1: old dominion. It's just unfamiliarity, like, do I want to 1357 01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:14,040 Speaker 1: be the dope that takes Old Dominion plus twenty four 1358 01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:17,040 Speaker 1: when Indiana blows them out. No, they're all the more 1359 01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:20,120 Speaker 1: comfortable sides, and it doesn't mean you're doomed if you 1360 01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:23,280 Speaker 1: take that. But something to keep in mind, oftentimes the 1361 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:26,360 Speaker 1: more uncomfortable pick is the one that cashes. 1362 01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I love everything you just said. Early in 1363 01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:33,240 Speaker 5: the week, I'm sure there was a lot of steam 1364 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:36,799 Speaker 5: on the Eagles leading into Thursday night football. 1365 01:10:36,880 --> 01:10:38,320 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, definitely. 1366 01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:42,960 Speaker 5: God, And I wasn't particularly tracking it. But if you 1367 01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 5: would have asked me on Wednesday, where's the money going, 1368 01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:47,559 Speaker 5: I would have told you Eagles. You know, they're doing 1369 01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:51,760 Speaker 5: the ward presentation, They're hanging the banner, they're doing that. 1370 01:10:51,800 --> 01:10:55,639 Speaker 5: It's a home game Dallas Cowboys. The whole offseason, they've 1371 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:59,600 Speaker 5: been ridiculed because of how they handled Michael Parsons, and 1372 01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:02,839 Speaker 5: then they go out and they have a close, close 1373 01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:08,439 Speaker 5: game that results in in a narrow loss against a 1374 01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:11,880 Speaker 5: division competitor who played tougher than everybody thought. You know, 1375 01:11:11,920 --> 01:11:15,800 Speaker 5: it's the same thing I was just talking about with with. 1376 01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:17,040 Speaker 3: The Tennessee Titans. 1377 01:11:17,400 --> 01:11:20,200 Speaker 5: You know, I'm I'm really and I know I'm getting 1378 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 5: ahead of ourselves, but just thinking about like all of 1379 01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:26,360 Speaker 5: the talk I'm hearing about the Broncos, and I realized, like, 1380 01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:30,000 Speaker 5: holy cow, like cam Ward is a number one overall pick, 1381 01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:33,479 Speaker 5: Like we were literally talking about him on this show 1382 01:11:33,640 --> 01:11:36,759 Speaker 5: last year on countdown for the majority of the season. 1383 01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:40,719 Speaker 5: It's like he's disappeared. It's so crazy how that happens. 1384 01:11:40,760 --> 01:11:44,200 Speaker 5: But but you're right. It's the uncomfortable thing to say 1385 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:48,960 Speaker 5: out loud. I like the Titans, right right, yeah, yeah, yeah, 1386 01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:51,800 Speaker 5: that's a crazy thing to say. But but you're you're 1387 01:11:51,880 --> 01:11:54,280 Speaker 5: right about what you said about Texas OSU. And I 1388 01:11:54,320 --> 01:11:56,960 Speaker 5: didn't realize it when I was doing my own mental 1389 01:11:57,000 --> 01:12:00,160 Speaker 5: math on the matchup. I was thinking to myself, I 1390 01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:04,360 Speaker 5: like Texas, But do I really do I really like Texas? 1391 01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:08,280 Speaker 5: Do I really love a completely inexperienced player going on 1392 01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:11,160 Speaker 5: the road in that environment for the first time, with 1393 01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:16,639 Speaker 5: an extraordinarily experienced staff, with a great defensive coordinator who, 1394 01:12:16,640 --> 01:12:18,760 Speaker 5: by the way, I played for when I was with 1395 01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:21,720 Speaker 5: the Patriots up there at OSU, who I knew was 1396 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:25,000 Speaker 5: going to drop his mad scientists plan to attack arch 1397 01:12:25,040 --> 01:12:27,280 Speaker 5: Manning and get him off his spot and make him 1398 01:12:27,320 --> 01:12:29,800 Speaker 5: think the entire game, and they did that with some 1399 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:35,880 Speaker 5: really deceptive play designs. Defensively, they were simulating pressure. They 1400 01:12:35,880 --> 01:12:39,559 Speaker 5: were getting home with four rushers. Arch Manning had no 1401 01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:44,320 Speaker 5: idea who was rushing. It was an impressive performance by OSU, 1402 01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:45,639 Speaker 5: But I was help. 1403 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:47,519 Speaker 3: I got caught up in the hike. 1404 01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:50,479 Speaker 5: In the hype, it was more comfortable to say I 1405 01:12:50,680 --> 01:12:53,760 Speaker 5: like Texas than I like Ohio State. And that's how 1406 01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:54,519 Speaker 5: you lose bets. 1407 01:12:55,280 --> 01:13:00,679 Speaker 6: Yeah, we're just trying to justify our mistakes or vice versa. 1408 01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:05,320 Speaker 6: If you bet on the sharper side, everyone's on the Eagles. 1409 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:08,800 Speaker 6: I'm gonna take Dallas plus eight and a half and 1410 01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:12,919 Speaker 6: then you win that bet. You're like, well, public was wrong. Actually, 1411 01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:16,360 Speaker 6: the Eagles just didn't play well and they really had 1412 01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:19,360 Speaker 6: no chance to cover that game after their best defensive 1413 01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:23,479 Speaker 6: player got ejected before one snap. Yeah, that like that. 1414 01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:27,200 Speaker 6: If you want to actually explain why they lost the 1415 01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:30,719 Speaker 6: game or lost the spread didn't cover, it has nothing 1416 01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:34,360 Speaker 6: to do with the public betting them. That just made 1417 01:13:34,400 --> 01:13:38,080 Speaker 6: the line a little bit frothy, and it gave you 1418 01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:42,960 Speaker 6: an opportunity for some value. In reality, that spread probably 1419 01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:46,320 Speaker 6: should have been seven. It was seven all summer, and 1420 01:13:46,360 --> 01:13:48,880 Speaker 6: then the Micah Parsons news happened, and then it was nine. 1421 01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:52,240 Speaker 6: I was like, Eh, probably should have stayed at seven. 1422 01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:56,320 Speaker 6: I just think we have to like as a society, 1423 01:13:56,360 --> 01:13:59,320 Speaker 6: as human beings, we're trying to justify everything that we do, 1424 01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:01,120 Speaker 6: and sometimes it's just random. 1425 01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:04,519 Speaker 1: Yeah. That's the last point is even if you retrace 1426 01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 1: your steps and Rich you're talking about Texas and OSU, 1427 01:14:08,439 --> 01:14:11,599 Speaker 1: and then once OSU wins the game, you retrace your 1428 01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:14,280 Speaker 1: steps and you're like, it's so clear, now, why didn't 1429 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:15,160 Speaker 1: I see this before? 1430 01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 4: But if arch Manning. 1431 01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:21,120 Speaker 1: And the tush push works on the doorstep of a touch, 1432 01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:23,400 Speaker 1: it's a completely different game. Texas might win that game 1433 01:14:23,479 --> 01:14:26,120 Speaker 1: if they punch it in right there. So it is 1434 01:14:26,160 --> 01:14:27,639 Speaker 1: still pretty random, no doubt. 1435 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:28,920 Speaker 4: We got Rich. 1436 01:14:28,760 --> 01:14:32,719 Speaker 1: Orenberger, Penn State All American, Jared Smith FSR betting analyst, 1437 01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:35,080 Speaker 1: I'm Brian No. Be sure to check out the new 1438 01:14:35,080 --> 01:14:37,960 Speaker 1: looking features in the BETMGM app. It's fast and easy 1439 01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:41,679 Speaker 1: access to the sports you love.

I'm gonna go 1467 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:10,280 Speaker 6: John Mattier under two forty one on a hook passing 1468 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:13,400 Speaker 6: yards playing a dollar of fifteen over at that MGM 1469 01:16:13,680 --> 01:16:16,439 Speaker 6: low total game right, and the total keeps going lower. 1470 01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:20,400 Speaker 6: I'm lower lower lower in the market, get low game low. 1471 01:16:21,200 --> 01:16:24,120 Speaker 6: Sometimes you can find residual value in the prop market. 1472 01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:28,519 Speaker 6: Right total starts in the mid forties, gets bet down lower. Well, 1473 01:16:28,880 --> 01:16:31,920 Speaker 6: sometimes the prop numbers don't always go as low as 1474 01:16:31,960 --> 01:16:34,679 Speaker 6: the total goes. So I think the passing yards prop 1475 01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,600 Speaker 6: year makes sense because I think it's gonna be a 1476 01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:39,760 Speaker 6: phone booth kind of game. Michigan Year two of the 1477 01:16:39,800 --> 01:16:43,640 Speaker 6: Wink Martindale defense. Not a lot of household names on 1478 01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:47,160 Speaker 6: this defense, but they got a thumper at safety, Brandon Hillman. 1479 01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:48,720 Speaker 6: He's going to play a great center field. He's going 1480 01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:52,200 Speaker 6: to take away the deep play. Mattier looks comfortable in 1481 01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:55,720 Speaker 6: year two of this ben Arbuckle offense, but the mechanics 1482 01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 6: were whack last Week's missing a lot of throwers arms side. 1483 01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:00,800 Speaker 6: He's going to face a lot more user this week 1484 01:17:00,880 --> 01:17:04,920 Speaker 6: against Michigan. Oklahoma should have the lead late which should 1485 01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:07,719 Speaker 6: take away the pass. I think mcgeerstay's under his passing 1486 01:17:07,800 --> 01:17:09,599 Speaker 6: yards prop two forty one on a hook over at that. 1487 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:16,880 Speaker 5: Mpm okay UNLD hosting UCLA. I love the quarterback at UNLV, 1488 01:17:17,160 --> 01:17:21,439 Speaker 5: Anthony Calandria. I think he's talented, he's very experienced in 1489 01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:25,840 Speaker 5: the college football ranks. Came for Virginia. Has had a 1490 01:17:25,880 --> 01:17:30,320 Speaker 5: great start to this season, and I think it continues. Also, 1491 01:17:30,439 --> 01:17:35,599 Speaker 5: UCLA's defense completely laid down last week against Utah, just had. 1492 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:37,200 Speaker 3: Forty hung on him easily. 1493 01:17:37,720 --> 01:17:41,679 Speaker 5: So yeah, give me Anthony Calandria going over one hundred 1494 01:17:41,680 --> 01:17:42,840 Speaker 5: and eighty seven and a. 1495 01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:44,840 Speaker 3: Half passing yards today. 1496 01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:47,680 Speaker 5: I think he's going to do work as a high 1497 01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:51,400 Speaker 5: completion percentage thrower against his crew and defense. 1498 01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:54,599 Speaker 1: All Right, So it was an ugly performance by arch 1499 01:17:54,680 --> 01:17:56,880 Speaker 1: manning last week against Ohio State. 1500 01:17:57,600 --> 01:17:59,040 Speaker 4: I think that changes today. 1501 01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 1: Texas, Let's get him some Let's get the feel goods 1502 01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:05,719 Speaker 1: going on over here, you know what I mean. Taking 1503 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:10,479 Speaker 1: on a very very beatable opponent, and I just think 1504 01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:13,000 Speaker 1: Texas is going to roll, and I think Sark is 1505 01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:15,439 Speaker 1: going to do everything that he can against San Jose 1506 01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:18,680 Speaker 1: State to get Arch feeling good, you know what I mean? 1507 01:18:18,760 --> 01:18:20,680 Speaker 1: Now this is a high total, two sixty four and 1508 01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:21,160 Speaker 1: a half. 1509 01:18:21,320 --> 01:18:21,880 Speaker 6: That's high. 1510 01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:26,400 Speaker 1: But San Jose State is they're kind of rough. They're 1511 01:18:26,439 --> 01:18:28,680 Speaker 1: kind of rough to als to a MAC team right 1512 01:18:28,680 --> 01:18:31,759 Speaker 1: out of the gate. And Sarks quote here he said, 1513 01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:34,120 Speaker 1: I tell him all the time talking about arch Manning, 1514 01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:37,840 Speaker 1: you're really you're not really a quarterback until they bow you. 1515 01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:41,120 Speaker 1: When one thousand and five win, one hundred and five thousand, 1516 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:44,360 Speaker 1: boo you, then you know you've arrived. So he arrived 1517 01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:47,240 Speaker 1: last week, you know. And that was a rough performance 1518 01:18:47,240 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 1: by Sark. But I'm sorry by Arch off target throws, 1519 01:18:51,520 --> 01:18:55,719 Speaker 1: never was comfortable. I think he looks worlds better against 1520 01:18:55,760 --> 01:19:00,519 Speaker 1: a much much softer opponent. And I think Sark is gonna, 1521 01:19:00,600 --> 01:19:03,800 Speaker 1: you know, do what he can to get Arch feeling good. 1522 01:19:03,840 --> 01:19:06,200 Speaker 1: That means dialing up some pass plays when the game 1523 01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:08,960 Speaker 1: is well in hand, run after the catch. You know 1524 01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:11,680 Speaker 1: what Texas does. They throw it short and their athletes 1525 01:19:12,080 --> 01:19:14,280 Speaker 1: make plays. They're gonna make a lot of plays today 1526 01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:16,680 Speaker 1: against San Jose State. I think they're gonna break a 1527 01:19:16,720 --> 01:19:19,559 Speaker 1: couple of long ones. They'll take arch Manning over two 1528 01:19:19,640 --> 01:19:22,960 Speaker 1: sixty four and a half passing yards. He rebounds after 1529 01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:24,920 Speaker 1: a rough one last week, but give. 1530 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:25,479 Speaker 3: Me a bonus. 1531 01:19:26,200 --> 01:19:30,280 Speaker 5: The Dukie's hosting the ALIONI, Like I mentioned, they're gonna 1532 01:19:30,320 --> 01:19:32,479 Speaker 5: really have to rely on the run game because of 1533 01:19:32,640 --> 01:19:36,559 Speaker 5: Manny Diez's blitz package. I think, look at Aiden Laurie 1534 01:19:36,640 --> 01:19:38,679 Speaker 5: to go over his rushing total right now. 1535 01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:40,559 Speaker 3: I found it at fifty two and a half. 1536 01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:43,800 Speaker 5: They're a little bit of rush by committee out of 1537 01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:46,880 Speaker 5: that backfield. But I could see I could see overs 1538 01:19:46,960 --> 01:19:48,040 Speaker 5: hitting in the run game for. 1539 01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:50,160 Speaker 3: The ALIONI interesting. 1540 01:19:50,720 --> 01:19:53,479 Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, the committee stuff. 1541 01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:56,880 Speaker 5: Man, it's tough because then all of a sudden the 1542 01:19:56,960 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 5: two back is having a hot hand and hey. 1543 01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:03,799 Speaker 6: Yeah, and you're like, why is this guy on the field. 1544 01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:07,599 Speaker 5: I don't look good offensive Lnes creating holds anybody can 1545 01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:08,040 Speaker 5: run through. 1546 01:20:08,080 --> 01:20:08,960 Speaker 3: Why is it that guy? 1547 01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 1: It's a weird thing about props. If you're on an 1548 01:20:11,120 --> 01:20:13,200 Speaker 1: over the teammates are your enemy. 1549 01:20:13,960 --> 01:20:14,439 Speaker 3: Works out? 1550 01:20:14,720 --> 01:20:20,800 Speaker 1: Coming up next a phone booth game. Oh what's going on? 1551 01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:24,880 Speaker 1: Happy Saturday to you as we get all set for 1552 01:20:25,120 --> 01:20:28,519 Speaker 1: wall to wall ball should be a really good day. 1553 01:20:29,120 --> 01:20:31,240 Speaker 1: You know, there's just too many games for some of 1554 01:20:31,320 --> 01:20:32,360 Speaker 1: them not to be awesome. 1555 01:20:33,040 --> 01:20:34,400 Speaker 4: He's just a numbers game. 1556 01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:36,800 Speaker 1: Over here right where they don't have marquee matchups in 1557 01:20:36,840 --> 01:20:40,160 Speaker 1: college this week, but inevitably there are gonna be some 1558 01:20:40,280 --> 01:20:44,000 Speaker 1: crazy outcome, some upsets, some wild things will happen. This 1559 01:20:44,120 --> 01:20:47,439 Speaker 1: is the only ranked versus ranked game on the schedule. 1560 01:20:47,479 --> 01:20:51,040 Speaker 1: That would be number fifteen Michigan against number eighteen Oklahoma. 1561 01:20:51,960 --> 01:20:55,080 Speaker 1: And I'm really interested in this game. I love the 1562 01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:58,479 Speaker 1: under and it keeps going lower lower, lower, and I'm like, shoot, 1563 01:20:58,720 --> 01:21:01,599 Speaker 1: it's too low. Now I don't love it as much anymore. 1564 01:21:01,640 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 1: But there are reasons why. If you look at Bryce Underwood, right, 1565 01:21:06,520 --> 01:21:08,680 Speaker 1: the Michigan true freshman quarterback. 1566 01:21:09,120 --> 01:21:11,200 Speaker 4: Good performance last week against New Mexico. 1567 01:21:11,320 --> 01:21:13,800 Speaker 1: Numbers were solid, twenty one of thirty one, two hundred 1568 01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:15,160 Speaker 1: and fifty one yards passing. 1569 01:21:15,680 --> 01:21:16,320 Speaker 4: That's nice. 1570 01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:18,760 Speaker 1: The one thing, though, they were able to lean on 1571 01:21:18,800 --> 01:21:22,120 Speaker 1: their running game, and you look at Oklahoma's defense they 1572 01:21:22,200 --> 01:21:27,519 Speaker 1: ranked second in rushing success rate allowed last season's that's 1573 01:21:27,600 --> 01:21:31,360 Speaker 1: really good. And a couple of long runs by Justice Haynes, 1574 01:21:31,840 --> 01:21:34,559 Speaker 1: you know, fifty yard runs last week. If they're not 1575 01:21:34,600 --> 01:21:37,720 Speaker 1: able to do that against Oklahoma today, you have to 1576 01:21:37,760 --> 01:21:41,760 Speaker 1: put all this pressure on a true freshman quarterback. So 1577 01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:45,320 Speaker 1: that's one question is how much is Bryce Underwood going 1578 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:48,840 Speaker 1: to need to do right, how much can Oklahoma make 1579 01:21:48,880 --> 01:21:51,679 Speaker 1: it about what he has to do for Michigan to win. 1580 01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:53,879 Speaker 1: And on the other side, if you look at Oklahoma 1581 01:21:54,000 --> 01:21:57,559 Speaker 1: last week, they played an FCS opponent, Illinois State. They 1582 01:21:57,640 --> 01:22:00,839 Speaker 1: only scored on five of their ten drives, a red flag. 1583 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:03,599 Speaker 1: They weren't able to run the ball against Illinois State. 1584 01:22:04,160 --> 01:22:07,080 Speaker 1: The running backs on twenty four carries, they produced sixty 1585 01:22:07,160 --> 01:22:10,200 Speaker 1: seven rushing yards. What are they gonna do against Michigan. 1586 01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:13,880 Speaker 1: So if we're talking phone booth game, and you know, 1587 01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:15,880 Speaker 1: both teams are trying to run the rock and not 1588 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:18,720 Speaker 1: having a whole lot of success, this could absolutely be 1589 01:22:18,760 --> 01:22:20,479 Speaker 1: a low scoring slugfest here. 1590 01:22:20,920 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 5: Man, Isn't it crazy? It really does feel like a 1591 01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:28,560 Speaker 5: slug fest. And we're so used to blue bloods, especially 1592 01:22:28,680 --> 01:22:33,000 Speaker 5: ranked blue bloods, having shootouts now, like it's just what 1593 01:22:33,040 --> 01:22:35,920 Speaker 5: we expect. But if you rewind the clock to last 1594 01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:40,240 Speaker 5: season with this Michigan Wolverine team, I mean, really, they 1595 01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:43,479 Speaker 5: couldn't throw the ball out of a wet paper back. 1596 01:22:43,720 --> 01:22:46,639 Speaker 5: It didn't take much to slow down that passing offense. 1597 01:22:46,720 --> 01:22:49,320 Speaker 5: Charme Moore's got his work cutout for him, you know, 1598 01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:52,200 Speaker 5: trying to bounce back after the hangover from the national 1599 01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:55,439 Speaker 5: championship year and get this thing going. But landing the 1600 01:22:55,520 --> 01:23:01,240 Speaker 5: highest rated offensive prospect in Wolverine football history should help 1601 01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:03,799 Speaker 5: them at some point. But this is a big matchup, 1602 01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:07,880 Speaker 5: and this is early in his career, and and Bud, 1603 01:23:07,920 --> 01:23:10,720 Speaker 5: and and and but you know, I'm really curious to 1604 01:23:10,760 --> 01:23:14,240 Speaker 5: see what he looks like as we start to peel 1605 01:23:14,400 --> 01:23:18,759 Speaker 5: the high school veneer off of Underwood and we start 1606 01:23:18,840 --> 01:23:19,360 Speaker 5: seeing the. 1607 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:22,280 Speaker 3: Player at the collegiate level. It takes time. 1608 01:23:22,800 --> 01:23:25,920 Speaker 5: This is coming from a guy who was woefully unprepared 1609 01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:28,559 Speaker 5: for his collegiate career when he left high school. Okay, 1610 01:23:29,320 --> 01:23:34,320 Speaker 5: I went to Penn State out of Nowheresville, Long Island, 1611 01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:38,880 Speaker 5: New York, not known for football until really the classes 1612 01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:42,360 Speaker 5: that you know came after me East Mental High. 1613 01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:45,320 Speaker 3: We weren't pumping out prospects anywhere. Uh. 1614 01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:47,599 Speaker 5: And I went to Penn State and got my ears 1615 01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:49,920 Speaker 5: kicked in for about two years before I found the 1616 01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:53,800 Speaker 5: football field and then ended up starting forty games or 1617 01:23:53,840 --> 01:23:56,720 Speaker 5: close to thirty thirty something I don't remember, but a 1618 01:23:56,720 --> 01:23:59,280 Speaker 5: lot of games at Penn State. It took me time, though, 1619 01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:02,400 Speaker 5: to learn how to play at that level. I had 1620 01:24:02,400 --> 01:24:04,599 Speaker 5: to learn the speed of the game. I had to 1621 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:08,719 Speaker 5: feel the the I don't know, I had to feel 1622 01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:11,000 Speaker 5: my way through it, you know. And as an offensive 1623 01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:13,960 Speaker 5: line it's different. As a quarterback. Obviously, you are in 1624 01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:18,120 Speaker 5: a fistfight. It is a physical confrontation every single game, 1625 01:24:18,280 --> 01:24:22,599 Speaker 5: whereas playing quarterback it's more of like that, how how 1626 01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:25,680 Speaker 5: far can you expand your aperture? How much of the 1627 01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:28,559 Speaker 5: field can you see? How much of the vocabulary can 1628 01:24:28,640 --> 01:24:32,120 Speaker 5: you learn? Can you can you get get plucked out 1629 01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:38,639 Speaker 5: of America and land in France and learn the Parisian language, right, 1630 01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:42,600 Speaker 5: learn the nuance of the culture. That's what joining a 1631 01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:47,120 Speaker 5: new football program is. And and you you are behind 1632 01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:49,599 Speaker 5: the eight ball until you're not, and you don't know 1633 01:24:49,640 --> 01:24:51,519 Speaker 5: when it's going to catch up, when the lights you're 1634 01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:54,240 Speaker 5: gonna go on Mentally for these players, for me, it 1635 01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:58,800 Speaker 5: took two years. For the Wolverines, they're they're hoping it 1636 01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:02,200 Speaker 5: doesn't take two years, hoping this happens immediately with Underwood. 1637 01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:05,599 Speaker 5: So I'm very, very curious the learning curve that we're 1638 01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:07,519 Speaker 5: gonna see with Bryce Underwood, who comes out of a 1639 01:25:07,520 --> 01:25:11,480 Speaker 5: great program, out of the high school football system. 1640 01:25:11,280 --> 01:25:16,960 Speaker 6: The East Meta Jets, Baby, yeah them, Well, big game 1641 01:25:16,960 --> 01:25:18,600 Speaker 6: for you guys. This week, I was checking out some 1642 01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:21,720 Speaker 6: of the news day Long Island scored. I think you 1643 01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:26,240 Speaker 6: play Belmour this week. So this is an awesome game. 1644 01:25:26,880 --> 01:25:29,519 Speaker 6: This is really a fun game. I think to dissect 1645 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:33,040 Speaker 6: from a handicapping standpoint, because I really do think the 1646 01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:36,599 Speaker 6: defenses have a big edge. Now we might look back 1647 01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:41,160 Speaker 6: on this summer and laugh at how much we talked 1648 01:25:41,200 --> 01:25:44,639 Speaker 6: about Arch Manning as a generational talent and how little 1649 01:25:44,680 --> 01:25:48,840 Speaker 6: we talked about Bryce Underwood bryce generational talent. It kind 1650 01:25:48,840 --> 01:25:50,759 Speaker 6: of actually reminds me of what happened in the NFL 1651 01:25:50,800 --> 01:25:53,960 Speaker 6: with cam Ward and Shador Sanders. Like Sanders has the name, 1652 01:25:54,560 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 6: talking about Arch and the name, but it's really cam 1653 01:25:57,160 --> 01:26:01,719 Speaker 6: Ward that's got the talent. And I watched Bryce's tape 1654 01:26:01,800 --> 01:26:04,920 Speaker 6: last week. Reminds me a lot of CJ. Stroud, no 1655 01:26:05,040 --> 01:26:08,799 Speaker 6: wasted movement on the delivery, incredible mechanics, and a freakin' 1656 01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:12,000 Speaker 6: rifle for an arm I mean, this dude can rip it. 1657 01:26:13,040 --> 01:26:15,600 Speaker 6: His only weakness is in experience, and that's going to 1658 01:26:15,640 --> 01:26:17,680 Speaker 6: obviously come in to play in this game. Can he 1659 01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:21,599 Speaker 6: handle the moment on the road against the really tough 1660 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:25,880 Speaker 6: defense and make no mistake, Oklahoma's defense is legit I 1661 01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:29,160 Speaker 6: like this Michigan backfield. Though we love Underwood. He needs 1662 01:26:29,240 --> 01:26:32,040 Speaker 6: to grow up a little bit and get that experience. 1663 01:26:32,040 --> 01:26:34,439 Speaker 6: But I'll be honest, I think Justice Haines has some 1664 01:26:34,600 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 6: juice to him. He wallowed the last two years at Alabama. 1665 01:26:38,160 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 6: That was a bad scheme fit for him much better 1666 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:44,680 Speaker 6: in the traditional eye formation at Michigan. That's what he 1667 01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:46,360 Speaker 6: ran at high school where he was, by the way, 1668 01:26:46,400 --> 01:26:49,000 Speaker 6: a high school All American at Buford High School in Georgia, 1669 01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:51,799 Speaker 6: one of the best backs in the twenty twenty three class. 1670 01:26:51,840 --> 01:26:55,800 Speaker 6: He ran a lot of eye formation and it just 1671 01:26:55,880 --> 01:26:57,720 Speaker 6: wasn't a good fit at Bama. And now I think 1672 01:26:57,760 --> 01:27:00,800 Speaker 6: he's gonna have a much better time at Michigan. I 1673 01:27:00,840 --> 01:27:03,559 Speaker 6: don't love this Oklahoma offense. I know we love John Mattier. 1674 01:27:03,800 --> 01:27:05,639 Speaker 6: I know we talked a lot about him and Ben 1675 01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:08,559 Speaker 6: Arbuckle pairing up together and what they did at Washington State. 1676 01:27:08,840 --> 01:27:11,360 Speaker 6: I think his eyes are very comfortable in this scheme, 1677 01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:15,240 Speaker 6: but I don't like the mechanics. Again, I think he 1678 01:27:15,400 --> 01:27:18,240 Speaker 6: was a little bit off with his mechanics last week, 1679 01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:20,920 Speaker 6: missing a lot of throw's arm side, which tells me 1680 01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:24,599 Speaker 6: that he's not quite coming through the football fully. And 1681 01:27:25,280 --> 01:27:28,880 Speaker 6: that was against Illinois State, and like Brian mentioned, they 1682 01:27:28,880 --> 01:27:31,479 Speaker 6: didn't run the ball well. Their offensive line got pushed 1683 01:27:31,479 --> 01:27:36,040 Speaker 6: around by Illinois State. What do we think a Michigan 1684 01:27:36,080 --> 01:27:40,639 Speaker 6: defense is gonna do to this Oklahoma offensive line? Year 1685 01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,840 Speaker 6: two of this Wink Martindale scheme. Again, not a lot 1686 01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:46,080 Speaker 6: of household names on this defense, but they are very 1687 01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 6: assignment sound. They are going to drop back in zone. 1688 01:27:49,600 --> 01:27:51,519 Speaker 6: They're gonna stop the run with their front. They got 1689 01:27:51,520 --> 01:27:53,479 Speaker 6: a couple guys off the edge that can get after you. 1690 01:27:53,520 --> 01:27:56,000 Speaker 6: And like I said during the parlay player or Susan 1691 01:27:56,040 --> 01:27:59,360 Speaker 6: the propit up segment, this free safety Brandon Hillman. When 1692 01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:02,479 Speaker 6: you watch the against New Mexico last week, Holy smokes, 1693 01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:06,719 Speaker 6: this dude is a heat seeking missile at free safety. 1694 01:28:07,080 --> 01:28:09,720 Speaker 6: He will get up there and stop the run and 1695 01:28:09,760 --> 01:28:13,040 Speaker 6: then get in the back and defense centerfield on the explosive. 1696 01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:16,639 Speaker 6: So I really like this Michigan defense. I like when 1697 01:28:16,720 --> 01:28:19,280 Speaker 6: Martinelle as a coach. The only unknown Brian is. I 1698 01:28:19,400 --> 01:28:22,479 Speaker 6: just I don't know how Bryce is gonna handle this moment. 1699 01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:24,719 Speaker 6: And that's what makes this game very difficult to predict. 1700 01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:25,519 Speaker 6: Who's going to win? 1701 01:28:26,040 --> 01:28:28,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, it's uh, you know, I'm looking at the 1702 01:28:29,160 --> 01:28:33,479 Speaker 1: props in this game, and the quarterback rushing yards is 1703 01:28:33,560 --> 01:28:37,880 Speaker 1: interesting with both qbs here because John Mattier, the guy 1704 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:41,080 Speaker 1: is a playmaker, and I could absolutely it's thirty and 1705 01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:44,639 Speaker 1: a half rushing yards. I could absolutely see that going over. 1706 01:28:44,840 --> 01:28:48,320 Speaker 1: Of course, of course you have to sweat it out 1707 01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:52,880 Speaker 1: with any sack taken, which is but Mattier, there'll be 1708 01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:55,320 Speaker 1: some designed runs and also when he drops back to 1709 01:28:55,400 --> 01:28:58,760 Speaker 1: pass if he doesn't have anyone open, and you know, 1710 01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:00,840 Speaker 1: the clock in his head is said saying run it. 1711 01:29:01,040 --> 01:29:04,040 Speaker 1: He doesn't hesitate. He will tuck it and he will 1712 01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:07,080 Speaker 1: run it repeatedly. So I could see over thirty and 1713 01:29:07,080 --> 01:29:09,920 Speaker 1: a half. The other side is Bryce Underwood. Now you 1714 01:29:09,960 --> 01:29:13,080 Speaker 1: talk about sweating this out. It's at nine and a 1715 01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:18,840 Speaker 1: half rushing yards for Bryce Underwood. But again the sack yardage, right, 1716 01:29:18,920 --> 01:29:23,360 Speaker 1: Oklahoma's got a good pass rush. He takes whatever four 1717 01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:26,200 Speaker 1: five sacks. He's gotta have a tough time getting over 1718 01:29:26,600 --> 01:29:29,240 Speaker 1: that totally. He only has ten rushing yards. You're like, man, 1719 01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:32,400 Speaker 1: almost seems like a layup. I don't know it's a 1720 01:29:32,479 --> 01:29:35,160 Speaker 1: layup there, man, I think the under probably has a 1721 01:29:35,160 --> 01:29:40,040 Speaker 1: better chance of hitting than not. Yeah, yeah, that aspect 1722 01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:42,320 Speaker 1: of it is really interesting to me, it really is. 1723 01:29:42,439 --> 01:29:45,439 Speaker 5: And with so much talk about Materian Underwood, you kind 1724 01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:47,719 Speaker 5: of get lost in the sauce with this matchup because 1725 01:29:47,760 --> 01:29:51,320 Speaker 5: a week ago, you know, both of these teams really 1726 01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:55,040 Speaker 5: led with strong defenses, and you know, looking back at 1727 01:29:55,080 --> 01:30:01,880 Speaker 5: Oklahoma and what they did defensively, I mean, they were sensational. 1728 01:30:02,040 --> 01:30:06,200 Speaker 5: The reason why they are going to have success this year. 1729 01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:09,720 Speaker 5: It seems again it's kind of like the OPO thing 1730 01:30:09,760 --> 01:30:12,960 Speaker 5: we were talking about, going against the grain, going against 1731 01:30:12,960 --> 01:30:14,480 Speaker 5: your gut, thinking about. 1732 01:30:14,320 --> 01:30:17,280 Speaker 3: Matier, think about this defense. 1733 01:30:17,840 --> 01:30:22,599 Speaker 5: I mean, some unders could hit on Michigan props because 1734 01:30:22,640 --> 01:30:26,960 Speaker 5: of what Oklahoma will do defensively to the Wolverines. They 1735 01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:31,880 Speaker 5: held their last opponent to just three point three yards 1736 01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:36,080 Speaker 5: per play, one of eleven conversion rate on third down. 1737 01:30:36,600 --> 01:30:40,720 Speaker 5: I mean those numbers, even against lesser talent, those are 1738 01:30:40,840 --> 01:30:43,240 Speaker 5: video game numbers. That's like when you put field goal 1739 01:30:43,240 --> 01:30:47,080 Speaker 5: block on Madden, you know, or on College Football twenty five, 1740 01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:49,800 Speaker 5: you know, and you're just going after the quarterback and 1741 01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:52,639 Speaker 5: you know you're you're sending eleven, you know what I mean, 1742 01:30:52,880 --> 01:30:55,840 Speaker 5: Like it's you're gonna you're gonna stop down and you're 1743 01:30:55,840 --> 01:30:57,479 Speaker 5: gonna stop a lot. You may get hit on some 1744 01:30:57,600 --> 01:31:01,760 Speaker 5: home run balls, but with a strong defensive backfield and 1745 01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:05,040 Speaker 5: playing a lot of zone and and shoring things up 1746 01:31:05,160 --> 01:31:08,960 Speaker 5: up front, I think this could be a give ground 1747 01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:11,559 Speaker 5: grudgingly type of game, a little bit more of a 1748 01:31:11,560 --> 01:31:14,479 Speaker 5: foam booth game, as you perfectly put it. Then it 1749 01:31:14,520 --> 01:31:18,400 Speaker 5: will be this offensive showcase. And then on the flip side, 1750 01:31:18,439 --> 01:31:20,360 Speaker 5: well actually not the flip side of it, but sort 1751 01:31:20,360 --> 01:31:25,439 Speaker 5: of furthering the point, Underwood high school player who's got 1752 01:31:25,680 --> 01:31:29,280 Speaker 5: one sniff at the college level so far, going in 1753 01:31:29,400 --> 01:31:32,559 Speaker 5: a raucous environment. Yeah, you know, this feels very similar 1754 01:31:32,640 --> 01:31:35,799 Speaker 5: to Texas OSU a week ago, where we're like, okay, 1755 01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:39,080 Speaker 5: now it's this is big time. 1756 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:40,120 Speaker 3: College football, folks. 1757 01:31:40,360 --> 01:31:42,080 Speaker 5: Let's see how he does in front of the boom 1758 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:46,160 Speaker 5: boomer sooner faithful and uh and see if he doesn't wilt. 1759 01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:50,719 Speaker 5: And so I'm I'm I'm very curious what the quarterback 1760 01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:53,720 Speaker 5: play looks like. But I'm this the the side of 1761 01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:57,880 Speaker 5: the football, both for the Michigan Wolverines and for the 1762 01:31:57,880 --> 01:32:01,920 Speaker 5: Oklahoma Sooners that I'm most focused on is the defensive side. 1763 01:32:01,960 --> 01:32:06,280 Speaker 5: The Martin Dell Venables match up here as opposed to 1764 01:32:06,439 --> 01:32:08,439 Speaker 5: the Underwood Matier matchup. 1765 01:32:09,160 --> 01:32:12,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, this is this game's gonna be won by which 1766 01:32:12,240 --> 01:32:16,840 Speaker 6: defense is able to make that late play. I think 1767 01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:19,400 Speaker 6: both offenses are gonna be very conservative. I don't love 1768 01:32:19,400 --> 01:32:22,200 Speaker 6: I'll be honest. I I'm hearing a lot of Matier 1769 01:32:22,280 --> 01:32:26,960 Speaker 6: Heisman hype. I'm sorry, I don't see it for two reasons. One, 1770 01:32:27,680 --> 01:32:31,240 Speaker 6: Oklahoma's defense is really good, guys, and they're playing in 1771 01:32:31,320 --> 01:32:36,040 Speaker 6: the SEC. They need to win games, they don't care 1772 01:32:36,400 --> 01:32:38,840 Speaker 6: how they win them. There are no style points in 1773 01:32:38,880 --> 01:32:42,559 Speaker 6: the SEC, and this is not a quarterback that has 1774 01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:47,720 Speaker 6: a ton of weapons. So I just don't see any material. Like, 1775 01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:50,200 Speaker 6: if you're betting Materir to win the Heisman, save your money, 1776 01:32:50,240 --> 01:32:52,000 Speaker 6: please save it, Give it to me. I'll make a 1777 01:32:52,040 --> 01:32:55,040 Speaker 6: better bet. I just don't think he's gonna put up 1778 01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:57,680 Speaker 6: the numbers, Like he's just not gonna put up the 1779 01:32:57,760 --> 01:33:00,680 Speaker 6: numbers because they are not going to The total in 1780 01:33:00,720 --> 01:33:05,040 Speaker 6: this game is forty four. That was the average score 1781 01:33:05,360 --> 01:33:09,160 Speaker 6: for cam Ward last year. How many points Miami scored 1782 01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:11,960 Speaker 6: in the game, and he didn't even win the Heisman. 1783 01:33:12,640 --> 01:33:15,160 Speaker 6: So I just you just have to look at where 1784 01:33:15,160 --> 01:33:17,599 Speaker 6: the totals are and say he's not a high he's 1785 01:33:17,640 --> 01:33:20,360 Speaker 6: a great quarterback and he's gonna have a good year 1786 01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:23,840 Speaker 6: if he cleans up the mechanics. But I just don't 1787 01:33:23,840 --> 01:33:26,640 Speaker 6: see the Heisman stuff. I do think this is a 1788 01:33:27,400 --> 01:33:30,120 Speaker 6: This is a slaber knocker game. Guys like this is not. 1789 01:33:30,280 --> 01:33:32,879 Speaker 6: If you are watching this game because you like fantasy 1790 01:33:32,880 --> 01:33:36,120 Speaker 6: football and offense, you are watching the wrong freaking game. 1791 01:33:36,760 --> 01:33:40,200 Speaker 6: I cannot wait to see what Wink Martindale does. I'll 1792 01:33:40,240 --> 01:33:44,599 Speaker 6: be honest, I think Michigan, if if Underwood grows up 1793 01:33:44,640 --> 01:33:48,519 Speaker 6: at all this year, I am scared that Michigan might 1794 01:33:48,560 --> 01:33:51,599 Speaker 6: be like this could this kid could be the next 1795 01:33:51,680 --> 01:33:55,560 Speaker 6: god at quarterback. He is unbelievable. When you watch his 1796 01:33:56,439 --> 01:33:59,800 Speaker 6: tape from the New Mexico game, he's making throws that 1797 01:33:59,800 --> 01:34:04,200 Speaker 6: I'm I'm like, whoa, Like these are rifles and he 1798 01:34:04,320 --> 01:34:06,680 Speaker 6: has the size and do you see the block he 1799 01:34:06,760 --> 01:34:10,519 Speaker 6: through like he has all of all of the boxes checked. 1800 01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:12,760 Speaker 6: The only one he doesn't have is the experience. But 1801 01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:14,400 Speaker 6: he's gonna get a lot of that over the next 1802 01:34:14,439 --> 01:34:17,360 Speaker 6: few weeks. If they figure if Michigan figures out a 1803 01:34:17,360 --> 01:34:20,240 Speaker 6: way to win this game today, oh man, oh, people 1804 01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:22,559 Speaker 6: are gonna be so pissed off.

Well, at least that's the 1844 01:36:19,880 --> 01:36:23,439 Speaker 1: silver lining. It increases the amount that you're betting on 1845 01:36:23,479 --> 01:36:26,920 Speaker 1: the pizza bets. Right there you go, all right? Coming 1846 01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:30,680 Speaker 1: up next. I think this is a bad sign for 1847 01:36:30,760 --> 01:36:33,639 Speaker 1: a team with very high hopes. It is Fox Sports 1848 01:36:33,720 --> 01:36:36,759 Speaker 1: Radios Countdown to Kickoff presented by bet MGM. 1849 01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:38,000 Speaker 4: It is Fox. 1850 01:36:37,760 --> 01:36:42,040 Speaker 1: Sports Radios Countdown to Kickoff presented by bet MGM, only 1851 01:36:42,160 --> 01:36:46,559 Speaker 1: thirty five measly minutes away from kickoff here in that 1852 01:36:46,720 --> 01:36:50,720 Speaker 1: early you know, big noon eastern kickoff window.

I think this is 1863 01:37:21,160 --> 01:37:23,400 Speaker 1: a horrible sign for a team with high hopes that 1864 01:37:23,439 --> 01:37:28,639 Speaker 1: would be Niners. Running back Christian McCaffrey missed practice yesterday 1865 01:37:28,720 --> 01:37:32,599 Speaker 1: with a calf issue, and of course, you know CMC 1866 01:37:32,800 --> 01:37:35,040 Speaker 1: is say, oh, no big deal. You know you tweaked 1867 01:37:35,080 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 1: it in the workout, just playing it safe. Nothing to 1868 01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:40,320 Speaker 1: see here. I can't help but think of last year 1869 01:37:40,840 --> 01:37:43,080 Speaker 1: right where it was the same thing. You remember leading 1870 01:37:43,160 --> 01:37:45,719 Speaker 1: up to that first game, it was like, Hey, Christian 1871 01:37:45,760 --> 01:37:48,680 Speaker 1: McCaffrey hopes to play against the Jets, and then it 1872 01:37:48,760 --> 01:37:51,040 Speaker 1: was like, hopefully he's gonna play in the first four 1873 01:37:51,080 --> 01:37:53,639 Speaker 1: games or the first eight games. The dude missed half 1874 01:37:53,640 --> 01:37:56,439 Speaker 1: the season because of those injuries before he even got 1875 01:37:56,439 --> 01:37:59,080 Speaker 1: on the field, So I hope that's not what we're 1876 01:37:59,080 --> 01:38:02,439 Speaker 1: in store for. But for a guy who's had as 1877 01:38:02,520 --> 01:38:06,400 Speaker 1: many issues with his legs, you know, like around his 1878 01:38:06,479 --> 01:38:12,000 Speaker 1: achilles in areas, calf issues, when he's out due to 1879 01:38:12,080 --> 01:38:15,759 Speaker 1: a calf issue, if I'm a Niners fan, my heart 1880 01:38:15,800 --> 01:38:18,360 Speaker 1: is in my throat right now, like, oh my gosh, 1881 01:38:18,439 --> 01:38:21,519 Speaker 1: is it happening again this season? And especially with the 1882 01:38:21,840 --> 01:38:24,080 Speaker 1: wide receivers that are banged up for the Niners. You 1883 01:38:24,120 --> 01:38:27,479 Speaker 1: can't afford not to have Christian McCaffrey at full strength. 1884 01:38:27,479 --> 01:38:29,240 Speaker 1: And he's not at full strength right now. 1885 01:38:29,640 --> 01:38:30,160 Speaker 3: No, he's not. 1886 01:38:31,680 --> 01:38:35,280 Speaker 5: And you can't convince me, or I should say, more importantly, 1887 01:38:35,360 --> 01:38:38,320 Speaker 5: he can't convince me that it is in a lingering 1888 01:38:38,360 --> 01:38:41,960 Speaker 5: issue or something that he's specifically worried about. It doesn't 1889 01:38:42,000 --> 01:38:44,599 Speaker 5: matter how many times the media asks him, how many 1890 01:38:44,640 --> 01:38:49,439 Speaker 5: different ways they ask him, when literally a nickname is 1891 01:38:49,720 --> 01:38:53,600 Speaker 5: given to a player, you go on social media and 1892 01:38:53,640 --> 01:38:54,560 Speaker 5: it's Christian. 1893 01:38:54,320 --> 01:38:56,400 Speaker 3: Mccaff strain, you know what I mean. 1894 01:38:56,479 --> 01:39:02,000 Speaker 5: Like, it's sad because that's the state of our viewership 1895 01:39:02,080 --> 01:39:05,559 Speaker 5: in this country. So much is tied to these players 1896 01:39:06,040 --> 01:39:09,479 Speaker 5: individual performances, even more so than when you were just 1897 01:39:09,640 --> 01:39:12,479 Speaker 5: rooting for a team, because everybody has their sports betting 1898 01:39:12,520 --> 01:39:16,559 Speaker 5: app and most of those folks are obviously spending their 1899 01:39:16,600 --> 01:39:21,360 Speaker 5: money wagering on bet MGM and. 1900 01:39:20,160 --> 01:39:23,320 Speaker 3: And good on you because you get great odds and 1901 01:39:23,400 --> 01:39:24,120 Speaker 3: boost tokens. 1902 01:39:24,400 --> 01:39:29,000 Speaker 6: But the point is, Okay riches reading the promos here, 1903 01:39:29,040 --> 01:39:30,439 Speaker 6: I love it. 1904 01:39:31,080 --> 01:39:35,360 Speaker 5: But you know what's what's amazing about this though, honestly, 1905 01:39:35,840 --> 01:39:40,439 Speaker 5: is is how how much Kyle Shanahan in this offense 1906 01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:44,080 Speaker 5: really really leans. 1907 01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:46,720 Speaker 3: On their skill around their quarterback. 1908 01:39:47,439 --> 01:39:51,200 Speaker 5: If you think about it, when you think about teams, 1909 01:39:51,400 --> 01:39:55,519 Speaker 5: whether it be NFC teams or AFC teams writ large, 1910 01:39:56,120 --> 01:39:59,439 Speaker 5: who have great chances of having success, we talk about 1911 01:39:59,479 --> 01:40:03,680 Speaker 5: their quarter We talk about their quarterbacks. We talk about 1912 01:40:03,840 --> 01:40:06,479 Speaker 5: you know, the Jordan Loves of the world, you know 1913 01:40:06,560 --> 01:40:09,280 Speaker 5: in the NFC. You know, we talk about the Matthew 1914 01:40:09,360 --> 01:40:13,639 Speaker 5: Staffords of the world in the NFC or the Jared Goffs. 1915 01:40:13,680 --> 01:40:18,080 Speaker 5: It's amazing how much we talk about Kittle and Ricky 1916 01:40:18,120 --> 01:40:22,920 Speaker 5: Piersall and and Christian McCaffrey and will they turn it 1917 01:40:22,960 --> 01:40:28,120 Speaker 5: around at receiver, Like there's there's so much emphasis placed 1918 01:40:28,560 --> 01:40:31,880 Speaker 5: on the skill around Brock Party. Meanwhile, they just handed 1919 01:40:31,920 --> 01:40:37,040 Speaker 5: him fifty million dollars a year. Yeah, and man, it 1920 01:40:37,240 --> 01:40:40,760 Speaker 5: just goes to show you how important, how important that 1921 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:43,840 Speaker 5: offense is by committee. And we saw a down year 1922 01:40:43,840 --> 01:40:47,439 Speaker 5: out of brock Purty last year after having early success 1923 01:40:47,479 --> 01:40:51,160 Speaker 5: in his career. And did he does he deserve the money? Absolutely? 1924 01:40:51,439 --> 01:40:54,160 Speaker 5: He does in my opinion. You can't convince me otherwise. 1925 01:40:54,600 --> 01:40:57,640 Speaker 5: The guy is a stud. He understands the game. He 1926 01:40:57,720 --> 01:41:00,680 Speaker 5: understands the nuance of the game. He was prepared for 1927 01:41:00,720 --> 01:41:04,880 Speaker 5: his pro career. Kyle's father, Mike, fell in love with 1928 01:41:04,920 --> 01:41:08,160 Speaker 5: this guy during training camp when he was a seventh rounder. 1929 01:41:08,680 --> 01:41:11,639 Speaker 5: You know, he looked at him and said, our best 1930 01:41:11,720 --> 01:41:15,400 Speaker 5: quarterback on this team is buried on the draft, on 1931 01:41:15,479 --> 01:41:18,360 Speaker 5: the depth chart. Meanwhile, we have Trey Lance in the 1932 01:41:18,439 --> 01:41:20,800 Speaker 5: draft all those years ago. Now we fast forward to 1933 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:24,439 Speaker 5: where we're at now. Still the emphasis is on the 1934 01:41:24,479 --> 01:41:30,320 Speaker 5: pieces around Party, So it's appropriate to be worried about 1935 01:41:30,320 --> 01:41:34,120 Speaker 5: the San Francisco forty nine ers opportunity or chances of 1936 01:41:34,160 --> 01:41:36,840 Speaker 5: success without Christian McCaffrey, because I. 1937 01:41:37,800 --> 01:41:43,840 Speaker 3: Think those two, those two linear pads are directly tied. 1938 01:41:44,600 --> 01:41:46,680 Speaker 5: If the forty nine ers are gonna have success, it's 1939 01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:51,960 Speaker 5: gonna be because Christian McCaffrey is healthy. I don't see 1940 01:41:51,960 --> 01:41:54,120 Speaker 5: it any other way. They need a strong running game 1941 01:41:54,160 --> 01:41:57,080 Speaker 5: in that offense they do. They need to lean on 1942 01:41:57,240 --> 01:42:01,240 Speaker 5: getting the defense's attention closer to the line of scrimmage 1943 01:42:01,280 --> 01:42:03,360 Speaker 5: so they can hit on some of those deep over 1944 01:42:03,479 --> 01:42:05,599 Speaker 5: routes that they like to hit on, so that they 1945 01:42:05,600 --> 01:42:08,360 Speaker 5: can get the play action game going, so that brock Party, 1946 01:42:08,920 --> 01:42:14,360 Speaker 5: through the offense, can disguise intent and find more open 1947 01:42:14,400 --> 01:42:18,320 Speaker 5: windows downfield. Now Kenny win games, Yeah, we've seen it. 1948 01:42:18,600 --> 01:42:21,559 Speaker 5: We've seen second half comebacks, fourth quarter comebacks out of 1949 01:42:21,640 --> 01:42:24,439 Speaker 5: brock Party. He is a special talent at this league. 1950 01:42:24,840 --> 01:42:28,600 Speaker 5: But is he elevating this roster like a Patrick Mahomes. 1951 01:42:28,960 --> 01:42:32,160 Speaker 5: Is he elevating this roster like you know, the the 1952 01:42:32,280 --> 01:42:34,320 Speaker 5: Aaron Rodgers of yester year. 1953 01:42:34,960 --> 01:42:37,439 Speaker 3: You know the answer is no, not yet. 1954 01:42:37,680 --> 01:42:40,639 Speaker 5: You know, there's a strong reliance on this running back 1955 01:42:40,680 --> 01:42:44,320 Speaker 5: and it is a worrisome situation that he has a 1956 01:42:44,320 --> 01:42:47,480 Speaker 5: reoccurring injury and it's popped up again here in the preseason. 1957 01:42:47,920 --> 01:42:51,639 Speaker 6: Yeah, we love a good deep over route, a good dover. 1958 01:42:52,360 --> 01:42:56,200 Speaker 6: That's one of my favorite schemes. We see Sark, big 1959 01:42:56,240 --> 01:42:59,160 Speaker 6: Sark guy. If you're a Texas fan, that's his favorite scheme, 1960 01:42:59,200 --> 01:43:01,559 Speaker 6: and obviously Shannon Hand and a bunch of coaches run 1961 01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:06,000 Speaker 6: that in the NFL. I am excited to see San 1962 01:43:06,040 --> 01:43:10,040 Speaker 6: Francisco this year. I think they couldn't have gotten any 1963 01:43:10,120 --> 01:43:13,839 Speaker 6: worse with the injury luck last year. But that being said, 1964 01:43:14,240 --> 01:43:16,880 Speaker 6: when I was going through their injury report on Thursday, 1965 01:43:17,080 --> 01:43:20,240 Speaker 6: when I was taping my NFL podcast, it took me 1966 01:43:20,360 --> 01:43:23,160 Speaker 6: like three scrolls to get through the whole thing. Like 1967 01:43:23,240 --> 01:43:25,080 Speaker 6: you know when you're doing the little the little mouse 1968 01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:26,640 Speaker 6: scroll and you got the little wheel and you go 1969 01:43:26,640 --> 01:43:28,479 Speaker 6: boom boom boom. Like it took me three times to 1970 01:43:28,479 --> 01:43:31,160 Speaker 6: get through the whole thing. That's how long that injury 1971 01:43:31,160 --> 01:43:33,200 Speaker 6: report was. It's crazy. I don't like what kind of 1972 01:43:33,280 --> 01:43:35,599 Speaker 6: voodoo magic is going on with San Francisco that their 1973 01:43:35,640 --> 01:43:39,200 Speaker 6: whole team is hurt again before the season even starts. 1974 01:43:40,360 --> 01:43:44,120 Speaker 6: I hope it's just a precaution for Christian McCaffrey. I 1975 01:43:44,160 --> 01:43:46,200 Speaker 6: have no idea if he's going to be healthy or 1976 01:43:46,200 --> 01:43:48,960 Speaker 6: not this year. It doesn't look like he's going to be. 1977 01:43:49,120 --> 01:43:52,479 Speaker 6: But you just hope that you know, they're just being very, 1978 01:43:52,600 --> 01:43:56,280 Speaker 6: very cautious with him because of the prior issues. I 1979 01:43:56,840 --> 01:44:02,280 Speaker 6: don't think it's a coincidence, guys, that divisional underdogs have 1980 01:44:02,360 --> 01:44:06,280 Speaker 6: done very well in Week one traditionally in the NFL, 1981 01:44:06,720 --> 01:44:10,000 Speaker 6: and we've seen two divisional underdogs. One of them win 1982 01:44:10,040 --> 01:44:12,439 Speaker 6: outright and the other one almost went out right and 1983 01:44:12,520 --> 01:44:16,080 Speaker 6: cover the first two games of the year. Well, guess 1984 01:44:16,520 --> 01:44:20,960 Speaker 6: who San Francisco plays on Sunday, divisional game on the road, 1985 01:44:21,080 --> 01:44:25,600 Speaker 6: a home divisional underdog, which have been even more profitable 1986 01:44:25,640 --> 01:44:29,360 Speaker 6: than just the divisional underdogs in Week one. So you 1987 01:44:29,360 --> 01:44:34,400 Speaker 6: get Atlanta this week, small home pooch against Tampa. You 1988 01:44:34,479 --> 01:44:39,080 Speaker 6: get Seattle this week, another small home pooch against San Francisco. 1989 01:44:39,560 --> 01:44:43,439 Speaker 6: If you're really brave, yeah, you've got the Cleveland Browns 1990 01:44:43,520 --> 01:44:48,200 Speaker 6: this week game home pooch, actually a moderate sized, medium 1991 01:44:48,200 --> 01:44:53,040 Speaker 6: size jackpot sized home pooch against the Cincinnati Bengals. But 1992 01:44:53,560 --> 01:44:56,200 Speaker 6: these divisional underdogs, guys, they've been covering and they've been 1993 01:44:56,240 --> 01:44:57,000 Speaker 6: winning in Week one. 1994 01:44:57,040 --> 01:45:00,559 Speaker 1: Traditionally, the last thing I'll say on the Christian Caffree 1995 01:45:01,479 --> 01:45:05,120 Speaker 1: calf injury. Again, it's shades of last year. I don't 1996 01:45:05,120 --> 01:45:07,400 Speaker 1: know that he's gonna miss the first eight games, but 1997 01:45:07,479 --> 01:45:09,120 Speaker 1: it's like the same timeline. 1998 01:45:09,439 --> 01:45:09,719 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1999 01:45:09,760 --> 01:45:14,880 Speaker 1: So he suffered from bilateral Achilles tendonitis last season. He 2000 01:45:14,960 --> 01:45:18,040 Speaker 1: missed the first eight games and it was initially announced 2001 01:45:18,439 --> 01:45:18,880 Speaker 1: as a. 2002 01:45:18,760 --> 01:45:20,840 Speaker 4: Calf strain, and so. 2003 01:45:22,760 --> 01:45:25,040 Speaker 1: You can't afford for that to play out again this 2004 01:45:25,160 --> 01:45:28,200 Speaker 1: season for a second straight year. So hopefully, fingers crossed 2005 01:45:28,200 --> 01:45:31,320 Speaker 1: he'll be okay. But I guess on a more positive note, 2006 01:45:31,400 --> 01:45:33,600 Speaker 1: of all these Week one games that are left, we 2007 01:45:33,720 --> 01:45:36,280 Speaker 1: got fourteen of them, right, which is the one that 2008 01:45:36,320 --> 01:45:37,600 Speaker 1: you're most looking forward to? 2009 01:45:38,040 --> 01:45:40,240 Speaker 4: Do you have one circled more than any of the others. 2010 01:45:41,240 --> 01:45:43,240 Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, And. 2011 01:45:44,600 --> 01:45:47,400 Speaker 5: I look, you know, I know I've mentioned it a 2012 01:45:47,479 --> 01:45:50,800 Speaker 5: couple of times because I'm so curious why it's been 2013 01:45:50,880 --> 01:45:51,559 Speaker 5: so quiet. 2014 01:45:53,160 --> 01:45:56,439 Speaker 3: I'm really really curious what this Titans offense looks. 2015 01:45:56,479 --> 01:45:57,919 Speaker 4: Like, Wow, you're all. 2016 01:45:57,720 --> 01:46:00,960 Speaker 6: Over it, man, Tennessee guy at about five and a 2017 01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:01,920 Speaker 6: half wins on the Titans. 2018 01:46:01,960 --> 01:46:06,559 Speaker 3: I don't blame Yeah, it's just been eerily quiet. 2019 01:46:07,000 --> 01:46:10,280 Speaker 5: We haven't heard word one out of their camp and 2020 01:46:10,680 --> 01:46:13,839 Speaker 5: I'm honestly not out of their camp. But the national 2021 01:46:13,920 --> 01:46:18,599 Speaker 5: media has spent zero time covering the Titans offense. And 2022 01:46:18,840 --> 01:46:21,479 Speaker 5: I think he's looked sharp in the preseason. The limited 2023 01:46:21,520 --> 01:46:26,520 Speaker 5: action he's seen, I think he's an NFL ready quarterback. 2024 01:46:26,920 --> 01:46:29,360 Speaker 5: The amount of time he played at the collegiate level. 2025 01:46:29,600 --> 01:46:32,000 Speaker 5: We're just talking about Brock Perdy. Why was he so 2026 01:46:32,120 --> 01:46:34,400 Speaker 5: ready for the NFL. It's because of how many reps 2027 01:46:34,720 --> 01:46:36,920 Speaker 5: he got at the collegiate level. Yeah, it was at 2028 01:46:36,960 --> 01:46:40,040 Speaker 5: Iowa State, but those are reps he saw a live 2029 01:46:40,120 --> 01:46:42,240 Speaker 5: game action over four years in college. 2030 01:46:42,280 --> 01:46:43,280 Speaker 3: Cam Ward very. 2031 01:46:43,240 --> 01:46:47,040 Speaker 5: Similar track, and I feel like the luster has gone 2032 01:46:47,160 --> 01:46:50,800 Speaker 5: on these one year starters at the college level. Who 2033 01:46:50,840 --> 01:46:54,760 Speaker 5: are these breakout stars coming to the NFL? And really 2034 01:46:54,840 --> 01:46:57,919 Speaker 5: kind of that We've seen a lot of these players 2035 01:46:57,960 --> 01:47:00,559 Speaker 5: get into the early action of their career and flop 2036 01:47:00,600 --> 01:47:03,439 Speaker 5: a little bit or have the flop sweats. They don't 2037 01:47:03,479 --> 01:47:06,160 Speaker 5: know how to react to certain circumstances. They haven't seen 2038 01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:09,560 Speaker 5: enough ball, and so I'm very curious And it's a 2039 01:47:09,600 --> 01:47:12,240 Speaker 5: great matchup if you think about it. Sean Payton and 2040 01:47:12,720 --> 01:47:15,879 Speaker 5: what he's been able to do with bo Nicks really 2041 01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:19,680 Speaker 5: promising preseason preview for the Broncos. 2042 01:47:19,960 --> 01:47:21,320 Speaker 3: I'm excited for Denver. 2043 01:47:21,640 --> 01:47:24,880 Speaker 5: I think that we just watched an AFC West matchup 2044 01:47:25,080 --> 01:47:28,920 Speaker 5: in Brazil and the Chargers are able to knock off 2045 01:47:28,960 --> 01:47:32,880 Speaker 5: the Chiefs, and that's fun. But this burgeoning storyline with 2046 01:47:32,920 --> 01:47:35,640 Speaker 5: the Denver Broncos is an interesting one because that's a 2047 01:47:35,640 --> 01:47:37,960 Speaker 5: real coach and I think that's a real quarterback. 2048 01:47:38,520 --> 01:47:39,599 Speaker 3: But I look. 2049 01:47:39,400 --> 01:47:43,200 Speaker 5: At what Tennessee has and I see a real quarterback, 2050 01:47:43,560 --> 01:47:47,160 Speaker 5: and so I'm very very curious how that game goes. 2051 01:47:47,920 --> 01:47:50,200 Speaker 5: I think it's gonna be much closer than think people 2052 01:47:50,200 --> 01:47:50,800 Speaker 5: think it will be. 2053 01:47:51,240 --> 01:47:54,160 Speaker 6: Wow, it's hard to pick one in Week one, right, 2054 01:47:54,200 --> 01:47:57,600 Speaker 6: It's like a lazed potato chip. You can't eat just one. 2055 01:47:58,400 --> 01:48:04,320 Speaker 6: Detroit Green Bay is just dripping with drama. Of course, 2056 01:48:04,400 --> 01:48:07,840 Speaker 6: the Packers getting Parsons, you get the Lions coming off 2057 01:48:07,880 --> 01:48:11,200 Speaker 6: their crazy year. Here's a sneaky one under the Raider. 2058 01:48:11,280 --> 01:48:14,519 Speaker 6: I mean, obviously, I think Buffalo Baltimore is also playoff rematch. 2059 01:48:14,560 --> 01:48:16,200 Speaker 1: I think I know the one you're gonna go with. 2060 01:48:16,600 --> 01:48:19,759 Speaker 1: You know, guess I'm gonna guess Texans Rams. 2061 01:48:20,080 --> 01:48:25,960 Speaker 6: Oh close close. It is a game that involves two 2062 01:48:26,120 --> 01:48:32,040 Speaker 6: teams from out of division, playing each other with different expectations. 2063 01:48:32,320 --> 01:48:35,080 Speaker 6: I'm really interested to see this Raiders Patriots game. 2064 01:48:35,520 --> 01:48:35,800 Speaker 1: Nice. 2065 01:48:35,880 --> 01:48:39,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, well, I'm honestly, and I did a film study 2066 01:48:39,840 --> 01:48:43,160 Speaker 6: over the summer on Chip Kelly, and I think this 2067 01:48:43,280 --> 01:48:46,360 Speaker 6: Raiders team has a chance to be much better than 2068 01:48:46,400 --> 01:48:51,759 Speaker 6: expected and the opposite for New England. Everyone's been hyping 2069 01:48:51,840 --> 01:48:55,400 Speaker 6: up New England this summer, and I love Drake May, 2070 01:48:56,120 --> 01:48:58,040 Speaker 6: but I don't think Mike Rabil is gonna roll in 2071 01:48:58,080 --> 01:49:00,599 Speaker 6: there and fix all of the problems that New England has. 2072 01:49:00,600 --> 01:49:03,200 Speaker 6: They had big offensive line issues last year. Christian Gonzalez 2073 01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:05,080 Speaker 6: is now out for this game. He's their best corner 2074 01:49:05,400 --> 01:49:07,960 Speaker 6: and I think that gives Chip Kelly and Gino maybe 2075 01:49:08,000 --> 01:49:09,800 Speaker 6: a little bit of an edge in the passing game. 2076 01:49:10,240 --> 01:49:13,320 Speaker 6: I think Ashton Genty can he do what he did 2077 01:49:13,320 --> 01:49:16,120 Speaker 6: in college last year at the NFL level. Everyone's questioning 2078 01:49:16,160 --> 01:49:18,559 Speaker 6: Boise you know Mountain West and he doing in the NFL. 2079 01:49:18,880 --> 01:49:20,960 Speaker 6: I think he might be the real deal too. So 2080 01:49:21,800 --> 01:49:27,320 Speaker 6: this is another sneakily ficially lined game right the Patriots 2081 01:49:27,360 --> 01:49:29,320 Speaker 6: at home. Everyone thinks New England's going to be this 2082 01:49:29,360 --> 01:49:31,960 Speaker 6: playoff team, and it's the lowly Raiders and the spreads 2083 01:49:32,000 --> 01:49:34,040 Speaker 6: two and a half like what the Patriots are at 2084 01:49:34,120 --> 01:49:36,960 Speaker 6: home and they're not even laying a full field goal 2085 01:49:37,080 --> 01:49:40,320 Speaker 6: to the freaking Raiders. So that game's kind of caught 2086 01:49:40,400 --> 01:49:43,719 Speaker 6: my eye as one of these hmm kind of games 2087 01:49:43,760 --> 01:49:47,960 Speaker 6: this week. Obviously not the highest profile game, but very 2088 01:49:47,960 --> 01:49:50,519 Speaker 6: intrigued to see how Vegas looks with this new look offense. 2089 01:49:50,840 --> 01:49:53,680 Speaker 1: Nice, you guys are true football junkies. I love this, 2090 01:49:54,080 --> 01:49:57,200 Speaker 1: Jared looking forward to the Raiders ras the tight nuns Man. 2091 01:49:57,280 --> 01:50:02,360 Speaker 1: You guys are over here, like the Marquee matchup, the 2092 01:50:02,600 --> 01:50:08,040 Speaker 1: primetime games just dripping with storylines. Ravensville's Vikings Bears just 2093 01:50:08,040 --> 01:50:12,960 Speaker 1: a quarterback matchup in Vikings Bears with JJ McCarthy Caleb Williams. 2094 01:50:13,240 --> 01:50:16,160 Speaker 1: Those guys are completely under the microscope, you know, and 2095 01:50:16,600 --> 01:50:20,559 Speaker 1: you get it. You understand why I love like the 2096 01:50:21,040 --> 01:50:23,880 Speaker 1: sort of under the radar but shouldn't be Texans Rams. 2097 01:50:23,920 --> 01:50:25,960 Speaker 1: I love that matchup. I can't wait to see that game. 2098 01:50:25,960 --> 01:50:28,160 Speaker 1: But Jared, the first one you mentioned is the one 2099 01:50:28,640 --> 01:50:31,080 Speaker 1: above all others. It's the Lions and Packers for me, 2100 01:50:31,200 --> 01:50:34,759 Speaker 1: because I think with the Micah Parsons trade, the Packers 2101 01:50:34,760 --> 01:50:37,639 Speaker 1: are like the IT team. They've got way more buzz 2102 01:50:37,960 --> 01:50:40,320 Speaker 1: than the Lions do it and the Lions went fifteen 2103 01:50:40,360 --> 01:50:43,120 Speaker 1: and two last season. You know, I feel like there's this, 2104 01:50:43,280 --> 01:50:45,920 Speaker 1: oh man, their schedule is brutal, and it's almost like 2105 01:50:46,320 --> 01:50:49,559 Speaker 1: you're kind of like mentally checking out of all things 2106 01:50:49,600 --> 01:50:52,920 Speaker 1: Detroit Lions. I think that's a mistake, like my old 2107 01:50:53,000 --> 01:50:56,200 Speaker 1: head coach Ray Garza in grade school football, just mistake. 2108 01:50:56,600 --> 01:50:59,839 Speaker 1: I think it's a mistake to just overlook the Lions. 2109 01:50:59,880 --> 01:51:03,920 Speaker 1: Like if anyone can navigate a brutal schedule, I think 2110 01:51:03,960 --> 01:51:07,080 Speaker 1: it's the Lions. So I can't wait to see that 2111 01:51:07,120 --> 01:51:10,519 Speaker 1: first game. How many snaps does Micah Parsons get? You know, 2112 01:51:10,520 --> 01:51:12,639 Speaker 1: it might need a back injection to get on the field. 2113 01:51:12,920 --> 01:51:17,880 Speaker 1: Another thing that is like completely under the radar, so 2114 01:51:18,000 --> 01:51:21,760 Speaker 1: Packers wide receiver Jaden Reid he plans to play through 2115 01:51:21,840 --> 01:51:26,160 Speaker 1: a Jones fracture in his left foot this season. He 2116 01:51:26,160 --> 01:51:29,240 Speaker 1: should be active for Week one. I read that, I'm like, Oh, 2117 01:51:29,280 --> 01:51:31,280 Speaker 1: he's just gonna just play through it, you know, just 2118 01:51:31,400 --> 01:51:33,920 Speaker 1: you know, bite down on the mouthpiece a little bit 2119 01:51:33,920 --> 01:51:37,360 Speaker 1: harder than normal and just play right through that Jones fracture. Okay, 2120 01:51:37,520 --> 01:51:38,960 Speaker 1: that sounds like it's gonna work out. 2121 01:51:39,000 --> 01:51:41,519 Speaker 4: Great, you know, I that's. 2122 01:51:41,280 --> 01:51:44,400 Speaker 1: Something that bears watching right there. I know we're fired 2123 01:51:44,439 --> 01:51:48,240 Speaker 1: up about Matthew Golden with good reason, but hey, Jayden Reid, 2124 01:51:49,040 --> 01:51:52,200 Speaker 1: he's an important part of their passing attack and if 2125 01:51:52,200 --> 01:51:55,320 Speaker 1: he's limited big time, I don't know, that's very bad 2126 01:51:55,360 --> 01:51:57,439 Speaker 1: for the Green Bay Packers trying to take hold of 2127 01:51:57,479 --> 01:51:58,519 Speaker 1: that division right there. 2128 01:51:58,880 --> 01:52:02,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, the first game that into mine was Bill's Baltimore. 2129 01:52:02,920 --> 01:52:05,960 Speaker 5: I mean, this could be a showdown that we see 2130 01:52:06,000 --> 01:52:09,760 Speaker 5: again in in you know, after the new year. This 2131 01:52:09,800 --> 01:52:13,679 Speaker 5: could be an AFC Conference championship game to decide who 2132 01:52:13,720 --> 01:52:17,719 Speaker 5: goes and plays in the super Bowl. It's got all 2133 01:52:17,960 --> 01:52:24,040 Speaker 5: of the makings for an incredible offensive, explosive cap to 2134 01:52:24,080 --> 01:52:27,040 Speaker 5: the NFL weekend before we get into Vikings Bears on 2135 01:52:27,080 --> 01:52:27,679 Speaker 5: Monday night. 2136 01:52:28,400 --> 01:52:29,479 Speaker 3: I'm thrilled for it. 2137 01:52:29,600 --> 01:52:33,599 Speaker 5: I feel I feel like last year it was a 2138 01:52:33,640 --> 01:52:36,679 Speaker 5: toss up, you know what I mean. Josh Allen walks 2139 01:52:36,720 --> 01:52:39,240 Speaker 5: with the MVP, But easily it could have been Lamar. 2140 01:52:39,360 --> 01:52:42,200 Speaker 5: Easily it could have been Joe Burrow if his defense 2141 01:52:42,360 --> 01:52:45,759 Speaker 5: bailed him out in any way, shape or form. Throughout 2142 01:52:45,800 --> 01:52:50,200 Speaker 5: the course of the season, he played exceptional. So there 2143 01:52:50,240 --> 01:52:53,200 Speaker 5: were a couple of candidates and obviously, you know, the 2144 01:52:53,560 --> 01:52:57,680 Speaker 5: popularity contest shined its light on Josh Allen getting that 2145 01:52:57,840 --> 01:53:02,720 Speaker 5: MVP trophy. But I love of regular season Lamar. I 2146 01:53:02,920 --> 01:53:07,120 Speaker 5: love regular season Josh Allen. I feel like there are 2147 01:53:07,160 --> 01:53:11,400 Speaker 5: two guys who when you watch them, the consistency of 2148 01:53:11,439 --> 01:53:14,920 Speaker 5: the playmaking is always at such a high level with 2149 01:53:15,000 --> 01:53:17,680 Speaker 5: the two of them. Now once you get into the postseason, 2150 01:53:18,000 --> 01:53:21,600 Speaker 5: it really has felt more like a crapshoot. That consistency 2151 01:53:22,200 --> 01:53:26,320 Speaker 5: has wane some in some moments. You know, obviously you 2152 01:53:26,400 --> 01:53:30,920 Speaker 5: go back to a fourth down conversion that was called 2153 01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:34,320 Speaker 5: against the Bills in the Championship game where you think, 2154 01:53:34,840 --> 01:53:38,240 Speaker 5: if there's a microchip in the ball, maybe it's completely 2155 01:53:38,320 --> 01:53:41,000 Speaker 5: different looking outcome in the Super Bowl for the Bills. 2156 01:53:41,560 --> 01:53:44,240 Speaker 5: And then you look at the Baltimore Ravens and I mean, 2157 01:53:44,280 --> 01:53:46,519 Speaker 5: how many times have we been disappointed by them in 2158 01:53:46,560 --> 01:53:50,280 Speaker 5: the postseason with Lamar at the helm, But I'm expecting 2159 01:53:50,479 --> 01:53:54,920 Speaker 5: amazing things out of that offense and likewise with the Bills. 2160 01:53:54,960 --> 01:53:58,280 Speaker 5: So you couldn't asked for a better nightcap to a 2161 01:53:58,320 --> 01:54:03,400 Speaker 5: weekend of NFL action. Then Bill's Baltimore. That's going to 2162 01:54:03,439 --> 01:54:04,960 Speaker 5: be a fun watch. 2163 01:54:05,560 --> 01:54:05,800 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2164 01:54:05,920 --> 01:54:08,800 Speaker 6: My final note on NFL Week one is keep an 2165 01:54:08,800 --> 01:54:12,200 Speaker 6: eye on the no show list. What's the no show list? Well, 2166 01:54:12,240 --> 01:54:15,640 Speaker 6: I'm gonna tell you right now. It is the quarterbacks 2167 01:54:15,640 --> 01:54:20,599 Speaker 6: that didn't play in the preseason. They have typically stayed 2168 01:54:20,680 --> 01:54:23,120 Speaker 6: under their passing yards prop. In Week one, we've already 2169 01:54:23,120 --> 01:54:25,960 Speaker 6: seen two of them in the same game Eagles and Cowboys. 2170 01:54:26,280 --> 01:54:29,240 Speaker 6: Both Jalen Hurts and Dak Prescott stayed way under. Now, 2171 01:54:29,280 --> 01:54:31,840 Speaker 6: to be fair, Dak probably goes over if Ceedee Lamb 2172 01:54:31,840 --> 01:54:35,160 Speaker 6: makes that catch late in the game, but Jalen Hurts 2173 01:54:35,240 --> 01:54:38,360 Speaker 6: was a stone cold under from the start. Both Josh 2174 01:54:38,440 --> 01:54:41,480 Speaker 6: Allen and Lamar Jackson did not take a preseason snap, 2175 01:54:41,640 --> 01:54:43,920 Speaker 6: so I went under on their passing yards props. I 2176 01:54:44,000 --> 01:54:46,200 Speaker 6: went under in the first half. Here are the other 2177 01:54:46,280 --> 01:54:49,520 Speaker 6: quarterbacks playing on Sunday that did not take a snap 2178 01:54:49,560 --> 01:54:53,040 Speaker 6: in the preseason. Get your pencils ready, kids, Michael Pennix, 2179 01:54:53,120 --> 01:54:55,760 Speaker 6: Baker Mayfield, both playing in the same game. Maybe a 2180 01:54:55,800 --> 01:54:59,680 Speaker 6: first half under in Bucks Falcons, Jared Goff, Aaron Rodgers, 2181 01:55:00,400 --> 01:55:04,000 Speaker 6: Matthew Stafford, and I just mentioned of course Alan and Lamar. 2182 01:55:04,360 --> 01:55:08,640 Speaker 6: So under passing yards props on all those quarterbacks, especially 2183 01:55:08,720 --> 01:55:10,840 Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers against the Jets, I mean we didn't mention 2184 01:55:10,960 --> 01:55:14,320 Speaker 6: that game, guys, but the double revenge narrative with Justin 2185 01:55:14,360 --> 01:55:16,360 Speaker 6: Fields and Aaron Rodgers going back and forth, that one 2186 01:55:16,360 --> 01:55:17,600 Speaker 6: should be a blast. 2187 01:55:17,920 --> 01:55:21,760 Speaker 1: Points at a premium is what I would say. We've 2188 01:55:21,760 --> 01:55:25,320 Speaker 1: got Rich Hornberger, Penn State All American, Jared Smith FSR 2189 01:55:25,400 --> 01:55:28,720 Speaker 1: betting analyst I'm Brian not.

We're low 2215 01:56:35,720 --> 01:56:37,200 Speaker 1: on time. You only have fifteen seconds. 2216 01:56:37,280 --> 01:56:39,560 Speaker 6: Go yikes. I was only three last week, so I 2217 01:56:39,600 --> 01:56:42,160 Speaker 6: won't even analyze. I'll just give you the plays. Texas 2218 01:56:42,160 --> 01:56:43,240 Speaker 6: Tech minus forty. 2219 01:56:43,240 --> 01:56:44,000 Speaker 4: You get analyzed. 2220 01:56:45,040 --> 01:56:48,560 Speaker 6: Go ahead and yeah, analyze a little bit. Texas Tech 2221 01:56:48,560 --> 01:56:50,840 Speaker 6: minus forty seven and a half first Kent State. Texas 2222 01:56:50,880 --> 01:56:53,800 Speaker 6: Tech won by sixty last week against Arkansas Pine Bluff. 2223 01:56:53,800 --> 01:56:56,680 Speaker 6: This is simple math here, people. I think Arkansas Pine 2224 01:56:56,680 --> 01:56:59,120 Speaker 6: Bluff might be better than Kent State. That's honestly how 2225 01:56:59,120 --> 01:57:01,640 Speaker 6: bad Kent State is. They're the worst team in FBS 2226 01:57:01,680 --> 01:57:04,120 Speaker 6: by far. I think the Red Raiders want those style points. 2227 01:57:04,120 --> 01:57:05,840 Speaker 6: They spend a lot of money in the offseason. They're 2228 01:57:05,840 --> 01:57:07,520 Speaker 6: gonna run up the square a day against Kains State. 2229 01:57:07,920 --> 01:57:10,960 Speaker 6: Mississippi State plus six and a half at home against 2230 01:57:11,000 --> 01:57:13,879 Speaker 6: Arizona State. This is a revenge game in star Vegas 2231 01:57:14,000 --> 01:57:17,000 Speaker 6: Night game. Give me more cow Bell Baby, big difference 2232 01:57:17,040 --> 01:57:20,360 Speaker 6: between Desert Hot and Gulf Coast top. We'll see if 2233 01:57:20,400 --> 01:57:23,480 Speaker 6: Arizona State can handle the humidity today. Camp Scattaba was 2234 01:57:23,520 --> 01:57:25,840 Speaker 6: the story in this game last year ran for two 2235 01:57:25,920 --> 01:57:28,040 Speaker 6: sixty two. He's in the NFL. I think Arizona States 2236 01:57:28,080 --> 01:57:30,160 Speaker 6: offense might struggle a little bit on the road. I'll 2237 01:57:30,200 --> 01:57:31,960 Speaker 6: take Missippi State plus six and a half and of 2238 01:57:32,000 --> 01:57:34,760 Speaker 6: course Duke plus two and a half at home against Illinois. 2239 01:57:35,080 --> 01:57:38,640 Speaker 6: Illinois the most popular side bet MGM today we're fading 2240 01:57:38,680 --> 01:57:42,160 Speaker 6: the public right many diez undefeated against this bread as 2241 01:57:42,160 --> 01:57:44,760 Speaker 6: a dog or of seven or last four and oh 2242 01:57:44,800 --> 01:57:48,480 Speaker 6: straight up last year four outright wins as a dog 2243 01:57:48,760 --> 01:57:51,680 Speaker 6: last year. I think Duke gets a win and covers 2244 01:57:51,720 --> 01:57:52,919 Speaker 6: the two and a half points Bread. 2245 01:57:52,680 --> 01:57:56,640 Speaker 5: At home, all right, Michigan Oklahoma, give me the first 2246 01:57:56,680 --> 01:58:00,440 Speaker 5: half under twenty one and a half. Michigan's freshman QB 2247 01:58:01,520 --> 01:58:04,879 Speaker 5: Bryce Underwood first hostile road environment start. 2248 01:58:05,280 --> 01:58:07,160 Speaker 3: I think they both lead with defense. 2249 01:58:07,280 --> 01:58:09,920 Speaker 5: I think this settles under that twenty one and a 2250 01:58:09,960 --> 01:58:13,080 Speaker 5: half point mark in the first half. UCLA visiting you 2251 01:58:13,720 --> 01:58:18,360 Speaker 5: NLV UNLV hot start last week Ucla lurched out of 2252 01:58:18,360 --> 01:58:22,200 Speaker 5: the gate against Utah. Give me Ucla struggling to put 2253 01:58:22,280 --> 01:58:26,520 Speaker 5: up points early in this game. First quarter, UNLV give 2254 01:58:26,560 --> 01:58:27,560 Speaker 5: me the plus. 2255 01:58:27,200 --> 01:58:29,560 Speaker 3: Point and a half. I think they score early. 2256 01:58:30,600 --> 01:58:33,400 Speaker 5: Illinois Duke, I'm gonna be on the same game as Jared, 2257 01:58:33,440 --> 01:58:36,879 Speaker 5: but I'm thinking the first half under twenty four points. 2258 01:58:37,080 --> 01:58:39,360 Speaker 5: I think Illinois leads with the run game against a 2259 01:58:39,400 --> 01:58:42,480 Speaker 5: weak Duke rush defense. I think Duke will want to 2260 01:58:42,480 --> 01:58:47,240 Speaker 5: slow the game down and feel their way against an 2261 01:58:47,240 --> 01:58:50,440 Speaker 5: allion I team hosting a ranked opponent. 2262 01:58:50,480 --> 01:58:52,360 Speaker 3: Give me the first half under twenty four. 2263 01:58:53,160 --> 01:58:54,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is a good or a 2264 01:58:54,280 --> 01:58:56,800 Speaker 1: bad sign, but we're thinking similar on a couple of 2265 01:58:56,840 --> 01:58:58,960 Speaker 1: these lines. I'm on Duke plus two and a half 2266 01:58:59,000 --> 01:59:02,320 Speaker 1: as well, and I underscore the reasons that Jared laid 2267 01:59:02,320 --> 01:59:05,560 Speaker 1: out right there again. Manny Diaz twelve and two at home, 2268 01:59:05,960 --> 01:59:09,120 Speaker 1: only lost to Notre Dame in SMU, really good at 2269 01:59:09,120 --> 01:59:11,240 Speaker 1: home and not getting a whole lot of love for it. 2270 01:59:11,400 --> 01:59:13,880 Speaker 1: So I like him plus two and a half today. Rich, 2271 01:59:13,920 --> 01:59:16,160 Speaker 1: I can't believe it. I'm staring at my notes. Michigan 2272 01:59:16,160 --> 01:59:18,760 Speaker 1: Oklahoma under twenty one and a half. First half. I'm 2273 01:59:18,760 --> 01:59:21,440 Speaker 1: on the same thing. I think it's especially early on. 2274 01:59:22,120 --> 01:59:24,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a slobber knocker. I don't think points 2275 01:59:24,560 --> 01:59:26,800 Speaker 1: are going to be easy to come by, So over 2276 01:59:26,880 --> 01:59:28,880 Speaker 1: twenty one in the hook, under twenty one in the 2277 01:59:28,880 --> 01:59:31,520 Speaker 1: hook I like that one. And for my last pick, 2278 01:59:31,640 --> 01:59:34,320 Speaker 1: I would like to go with Jordan Tyson, the Arizona 2279 01:59:34,360 --> 01:59:35,440 Speaker 1: State stud wide receiver. 2280 01:59:35,520 --> 01:59:37,880 Speaker 4: Give me over ninety eight and a half receiving yards. 2281 01:59:38,120 --> 01:59:42,200 Speaker 1: I wanted to fade Iowa's quarterback Mark Gronowski under one 2282 01:59:42,320 --> 01:59:44,560 Speaker 1: thirty six and a half only three for forty four 2283 01:59:44,680 --> 01:59:46,240 Speaker 1: against Albany, but I didn't
