I've never seen a more non descript 19 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 4: head coach in my entire life. Chad Morris comes out, Well, 20 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,839 Speaker 4: do you think do you think Jerry Jones's grandson's gonna 21 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 4: get the start? 22 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 2: No? 23 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 4: Maybe we'll see. What about kJ Jefferson? You think he'll 24 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,679 Speaker 4: get have a play, have a whole scheme, a whole 25 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 4: set for him, maybe he'll be in there. I mean 26 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 4: he was. So he made one guarantee. He guaranteed we 27 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 4: would beat Mississippi State and that's it. And then he 28 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 4: said everybody on the roster is available to play. Oh 29 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 4: and then and then he read shirt a few players. So, 30 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 4: I mean it's been the craziest, Like I can't get 31 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 4: any specifics on who's playing in this game whatsoever. 32 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 5: And for those that are unfamiliar our first time listeners, 33 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 5: Colin is a Arkansas alum and fan, well fan if 34 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 5: you want to call him that. Some Arkansas fans would 35 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 5: disagree self loathing fan. But Arkansas is catching seven and 36 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 5: a half. They're on a big losing streak at home. 37 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 5: So it is Mississipi State. Missippi State has been a 38 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 5: dumpster fire. And really, you know, it's not that I 39 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 5: want to bet Arkansas as much as I really just 40 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 5: want to fade Mississippi State again. They've been in free 41 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 5: fall mode. Their defense is a mess. I mean it's 42 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 5: just look a look at the NFL. You have guys, 43 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,239 Speaker 5: all those players, and Jeffrey Simmons, who I love on 44 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 5: the Titans. His presence is I mean all there. They 45 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 5: had three first round draft picks. Their defense isn't the same, 46 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 5: their offense is a mess. I think more heads on 47 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 5: the way out. It's just a team that I want 48 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 5: to faith, you know. Going on the road again. I 49 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 5: think it's their fourth road game since late September. They 50 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 5: have a bye next in Alabama. It's a semi flat spot. 51 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 5: And so the question is with the Arkansas quarterbacks, and 52 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 5: you don't want Starkle and for what I'm seeing that 53 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 5: the other guys that we want in there. 54 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 2: What Jerry Jones's grandson. 55 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, we will grand Baby. We're calling grand Baby by 56 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 4: the way from John Stephen Jones. He's been taking reps 57 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 4: with the Ones, so we hope he's the starter. He's 58 00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 4: the one that looks more solid, but maybe that's the 59 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 4: result of him not having much playing time. But I 60 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 4: mean the fan base once grand Baby kJ Jefferson, he's 61 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 4: he's kind of got a hopefully like a Len Bouten 62 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 4: junior type effect on the game. We'll see what that 63 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 4: could do there. I mean, my thing with Mississippi State 64 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 4: is that if you look at this losing streak that 65 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 4: they're on, I mean four straight losses, four straight against 66 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 4: the spread, that they haven't covered last three games. I mean, 67 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 4: they're they're minus seven and turnovers, so I'm not sure 68 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 4: how much of it is self inflicted versus you know, 69 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 4: like they actually got beat I mean it was about 70 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 4: the same total yardage against Texas A and M. And 71 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 4: you know, they did get up three hundred and forty 72 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,440 Speaker 4: yards against LSU. So I really think it's been more 73 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 4: self inflicted. Is where Arkansas is just downright pathetic and incompetent, 74 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 4: which is making people like me apathetic. 75 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I'm the Mississippi States. 76 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 5: No matter how you slice it, I mean, Mississippi State's 77 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 5: defense is still bad. I mean, I mean this has 78 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 5: to be one of the biggest drops we've seen in 79 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 5: a long time. Last year, they led the nation in 80 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 5: yards per play. This year they're one hundred and fourteenth 81 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 5: at six point four yards per play. It's worse than Texas. 82 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 5: Texas is one spot better. I believe that's the worst 83 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 5: of any Power five team not named Colorado or Vanderbilt. 84 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 5: So the defense is going from number one to number 85 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 5: one hundred and fourteenth. 86 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: So bad. 87 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 5: But all right, I think I'm gonna do play at Arkansas. 88 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 5: I'll wait for a little more intel or see if 89 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:13,920 Speaker 5: that line budgets because I really do want seven and 90 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 5: a half, which is where it's sitting everywhere. But enough 91 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 5: about Arkansas. Let's give the people what they want. We'll 92 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 5: start off like we did last week with the marquee 93 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 5: games of the week. 94 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: It's another fabulous weekend of college football. Let's check out 95 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: the marquee matchups. We'll all end up bedding for week ten. 96 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 5: There's not a ton this week, and we don't really 97 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 5: care what the card looks like, and it is a 98 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 5: shorter card. I think there's forty seven forty eight games, 99 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 5: a bunch of teams on a buy, especially your more 100 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 5: marquee teams, and there's going to be next week. There's 101 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 5: a few end of marquee games. We have a few 102 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 5: next weekend, namely Penn State eight and No. At Minnesota 103 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 5: eight and No. That's a top fifteen matchup. Iowa at 104 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 5: Wisconsin's the top twenty matchup. And then of course the 105 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 5: big one, LSU at Bama next Saturday, one versus two, 106 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 5: so that should be a treat in Tuscaloosa. 107 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 2: We'll be covering that heavily all week. 108 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 5: But this weekend, look, Penn State is a bye, which 109 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 5: means I can't lose money fading them, which is always 110 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 5: a positive. I'd mark down here two marquee games of 111 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 5: the weekend before we go through each conference. Will then 112 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 5: get into our underdog money line parlay our favorite overdog 113 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 5: will also cover Friday Night Lights. And there's only one 114 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 5: Friday night game this week, but don't worry, we're gonna 115 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 5: get into Tuesday Night maction and Wednesday. That all starts 116 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 5: next week with November coming up. So let's start with 117 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 5: the first marquee game of the weekend, and that's the 118 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 5: Large the World's Largest cocktail Party Georgia versus Florida. 119 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: For those that don't know. 120 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 5: Some people say we can't call it that anymore, but 121 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 5: Georgia is a six to six and a half point 122 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 5: favorite over Florida. Over unders come down from forty seven 123 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 5: to forty four. This is in Jacksonville. For those that 124 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 5: don't know, the name the World's Largest Cocktail Party was 125 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:07,640 Speaker 5: coined by a reporter who was there covering the game. 126 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 5: This is way back and he saw a stumbling drunk 127 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 5: college kid try to offer a drink to a police 128 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 5: officer on duty, and that's where he coined the name from. 129 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 5: That's where we get the name still holds on this podcast. 130 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 5: But Georgia and Florida both coming off buys which were 131 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 5: important to both teams. 132 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: They're both going to get some key players back. 133 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 5: Florida namely will get back Zuniga and Grenard, the two 134 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 5: of their best defensive linemen in pass rushers. They missed 135 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 5: them as soon as they went out. They didn't have 136 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 5: either against LSU and against South Carolina as well. And 137 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 5: Tony they get back as well. He was one of 138 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 5: the most explosive players. He should be back. Georgia, it's 139 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 5: more fifty to fifty, but it looks like at least 140 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 5: their corner Tyson Crawford week back. 141 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 2: That's big. 142 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 5: And then Lawrence Cage of their wide receiver is one 143 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 5: of from his favorite targets. He's fifty fifty as well, 144 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 5: but he's been practicing. I think both are going to go. 145 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 5: This is a huge game in the SEC. What are 146 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 5: you seeing here in Georgia Florida. 147 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I know. I knew that this would be We 148 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 4: said this on the podcast on Sunday night, that this 149 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 4: would be a big Tuggle war on the power number 150 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 4: between people taking Florida at six six and a half 151 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 4: and then people buying on Georgia once it got too low. 152 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 4: Once we finished that podcast, Georgia got down to minus 153 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 4: three and a half. Woke up the next morning and 154 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 4: I was able to get my own bet in on 155 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 4: Georgia minus four as we have this power rated at 156 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 4: Georgia minus seven at the Action Network. And after that 157 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 4: it just took off. It's been, you know, big money 158 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 4: on Georgia, smaller bets on Florida. And that's really kind 159 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,679 Speaker 4: of been the action that it's gone through the entire week. 160 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 4: The reason why I put in a couple units on 161 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 4: Georgia and I had no problem doing it, and I'm 162 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 4: going to wrap them up with a couple other money 163 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 4: lines this week. Nobody in the world of broadcast TV 164 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 4: is giving Georgia, you know, a good name here. Everybody's 165 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 4: kind of throwing them under the bus, calling them, you know, trash, 166 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 4: and they're all back in Florida. Based upon the LSU game, 167 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 4: but I mean, george Is allowed just one opponent to 168 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 4: reach twenty points this here. That was the loss against 169 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 4: South Carolina where there was a pick six. I mean 170 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 4: the game Cocks only had an eight percent postgame win 171 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 4: expectancy in that game, so It's not like they really 172 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 4: dominated Georgia there, but Florida got worn out by Joe Burrow. 173 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 4: By the end of that game. They had kept up 174 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 4: with them, but there was three touchdowns by LSU in 175 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 4: the end, and the Gators were just one dimensional. And 176 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 4: I think that's where it plays into the handicap here. 177 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 4: Their one dimension is they can pass the ball trash, 178 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 4: can pass the ball, no problems, but they have no 179 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 4: running game whatsoever. So I think Kirby's going to sell 180 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 4: out to stop the pass. And I mean Florida's thirteenth 181 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 4: and pass completion but they're one hundred and fourteenth and 182 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 4: rushing success rate. Why even defend the rush when they're 183 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,439 Speaker 4: that terrible of a team when it comes to running 184 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 4: the ball. So george is going to sell out to 185 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 4: against the pass, where they're twelfth in opponent passing success rate, 186 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 4: So they're going to be able to eat them up 187 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 4: on that side of the ball. Now the other side, 188 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 4: Georgia offensively will have a ton of success on the ground. 189 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 4: Florida's defense is fifty fifth in lineyards, there's sixtieth and stuff. 190 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 2: Right. 191 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 4: I know you're talking about how their defensive line is 192 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 4: getting healthy and getting some players back, and I mean 193 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 4: that should help against the rush and passing downs against 194 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 4: Jake FROMM. But there's just so many things in this 195 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,559 Speaker 4: The point to Georgia winning this game Florida's fifty seventh 196 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 4: and havoc allowed. George is only fourth and havoc allowed. 197 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 4: So the team that's going to protect the ball is 198 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 4: going to be the Bulldogs. George's fifteenth and third down 199 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 4: conversion rate Florida nowhere close George's first an opponent red 200 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 4: zone scoring this season. You get into the red zone, 201 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 4: George is the team you don't want to be going against. 202 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 4: They're only allowing two point seventy three points per trip 203 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 4: in the red zone, so I know that they're having 204 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 4: wide receiver problems. I know the current wide receivers can't 205 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 4: create space and they can't get downfield, and from is 206 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 4: not you know, there's a connection between him and the 207 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 4: wide receivers isn't working. But in this where Florida's offense 208 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 4: is a one trick pony, George is going to be 209 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:39,600 Speaker 4: able to beat them and cover. 210 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 5: I see the game pretty similarly as you, and now 211 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 5: getting Cajor back could help. When he went down against 212 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:50,359 Speaker 5: South Carolina, I mean, the difference in their passing efficiency 213 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 5: just absolutely plummeted. Before he was hurt from was eleven 214 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 5: of sixteen. After he was hurt, he was seventeen to 215 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 5: thirty five or three picks. So they clearly have chemistry 216 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:05,600 Speaker 5: and there is you know, the Georgia offense is lacking 217 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 5: explosiveness right and on defense they lack a little havoc. 218 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 5: You know, they don't have that guy who's going that 219 00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 5: game changer. But across the board they're really good defense. 220 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 5: Now they haven't played a ton, but you know, against 221 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 5: the pass, and especially with Campbell coming back, they are 222 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,839 Speaker 5: rocks out. They're rocks out against the run. You're right, 223 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 5: Florida can't run the ball. They can't run the ball 224 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 5: at all. And I don't think that they're going to 225 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 5: be able to pass if you know, with against this 226 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 5: Georgia secondary and the other side of the ball. You know, 227 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 5: I think Florida getting their pass rushers back will help, 228 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 5: like you said, in passing down situations if Florida has 229 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 5: a solid secondary as always, but where they're vulnerable is 230 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 5: running up the guy. Well, Georgia has arguably the best 231 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,840 Speaker 5: offensive line in all of college football. I think they 232 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 5: rank number one in lineyards, number one in standard down 233 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 5: line yards just across the board number two, and opportunity 234 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 5: rate number four and stuff rate. 235 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 2: This offense line gets a push and you can run 236 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: up the middle on Florida. And this is all we've 237 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 2: seen from Georgia is you know, this very conservative game script, 238 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 2: and I think here it will work. And I think 239 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 2: that there was a little bit of them sleeping over 240 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 2: the past month or so. You know, I called that 241 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 2: out before October. I said, look, Georgia has, you know, 242 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: on the on their minds. They might say, look at 243 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 2: our October who cares? We'd have to wake up after 244 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 2: the buye for Florida, and it ended up biting them. 245 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 2: I mean, they were a little unlucky against South Carolina. 246 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 2: But we haven't seen the best version of Georgia yet. 247 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: But their defense is rock solid. I think they're just 248 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: going to run the ball and I don't see Florida 249 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 2: moving the ball. And you make a great point about 250 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 2: the red zone in that you know Florida has great receivers. 251 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,679 Speaker 2: You know up there, top five set of. 252 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 5: Receivers, especially when you include Kyle pittser tight end who's 253 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 5: more of a hybrid tight end. Receiver, and you know, 254 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 5: they can move the ball through the air, and they'll 255 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 5: move it a little bit against Georgia, but when they 256 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 5: get down on the red zone again, Georgia is number one, 257 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 5: like you said, they and Florida can't run the ball, 258 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 5: which hurts in the red zone. So even if they 259 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 5: drive down the field, I think they're going to be 260 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 5: settling for field goals. That's why I like the under. 261 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 5: I played under forty six. I think it's down to 262 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 5: forty four and a half, but I think this is 263 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 5: you know, ends up being twenty four thirteenish Georgia. Aileen 264 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 5: Georgia as well. I think that their defense is going 265 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 5: to shut down Florida, and I think they're just going 266 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 5: to They can drive up and down the field by 267 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 5: handing it off and just pounding up the middle against Florida, 268 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 5: and that's going to keep the clock running. 269 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 4: I think. I think it's important for Georgia futures. Like 270 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 4: we did a piece on the Action Network about projecting 271 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 4: the four teams for the college Football Playoff, and I 272 00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 4: went through Georgia's schedule and I said, listen, they're going 273 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 4: to beat Florida and then it's going to be about 274 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 4: a pick them or maybe minus one against Auburn at Auburn, 275 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 4: and that game is going to be a slow grind. 276 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 4: It's going to be an ugly, nasty game that I 277 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 4: think Georgia will end up winning. But what Stuck just 278 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 4: said about how the defense isn't producing enough havoc for 279 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 4: the talent that they have, and that the offense is 280 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 4: not producing any explosive plays that ultimately could be the 281 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 4: end to them in the SEC Championship game. But we 282 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 4: got to see who wins between LC and Alabama before 283 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 4: we start handicapping that. 284 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 3: I hope you're enjoying this great action network podcast.

And that is between Washington and Utah. 297 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 5: Look on the surface, Washington doesn't have anything to play for. 298 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 5: You know, they're sitting at five and three on the year. 299 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 5: Utah's seven and one, still in the College twelve playoff discussion, 300 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 5: still in the PAC twelve title discussion. They also have 301 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 5: revenge from last year. They lost twice to Washington, and 302 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 5: you know they lost in the regular season and then 303 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 5: a Pack twelve champions and their offense did nothing in 304 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 5: either game. But you know, this is Washington at home 305 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 5: against a top ten team off of a bye. I 306 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 5: don't want to hear about any motivation issues. They're going 307 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 5: to be ready and they're going to be up for 308 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 5: this game. I took three and a half with Washington. 309 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 5: I saw that you did too. I think this is 310 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 5: just like the Oregon game. I know that Oregon came 311 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 5: back and covered, but I think that this is just 312 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 5: like that and this is more of a coin flip. 313 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 5: You know, Washington has had trouble with you know, there's 314 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 5: two things that they really struggled with. When you know, 315 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 5: Easan gets under pressure, but Utah really sticks to how 316 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 5: they play defense. 317 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 2: They're gonna play man, They're going to rely on their 318 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 2: front four. They don't blitz a ton, and I. 319 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 5: Think they're gonna you know, they showed how they just 320 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 5: stick to their scheme against USC and it ended up 321 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 5: biting them. But Washington has one of the best offensive 322 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 5: lines in college football, so I don't think you're going 323 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 5: to see Easton under pressure a ton. I think that 324 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 5: they can efficiently move it, especially if they get some 325 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 5: of their receivers back. Aren't fuller, namely and it looks 326 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 5: like he he's been practicing. It's so hard to get 327 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 5: injury updates in college football. 328 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 2: I think I blasted on. 329 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 5: I read it was week to week week the week, 330 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 5: but he's playing. I don't know, but they's likely to play, 331 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 5: but you know, and the big question on the other 332 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 5: side of the ball is Washington's run defense, and which 333 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,000 Speaker 5: has been poor for a lot of the year, but 334 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 5: it did look a lot better against Oregon. You know, 335 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 5: you have Chris Peterson here with two weeks to prepare, 336 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:27,600 Speaker 5: and there's two other X factors that pushed me over 337 00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 5: the edge to bet Washington here. And I hope what 338 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 5: Utah wins by three for our PAC twelve futures. You know, 339 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,760 Speaker 5: Tyler Huntley is not fully healthy and you know that 340 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 5: he's not as mobile as he needs to be, and 341 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 5: you know his mobility is an asset in that offense. 342 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 5: So it then comes down to, you know, can you 343 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,520 Speaker 5: stop the run and the Utah run heavy offense, and 344 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 5: I think that, you know, without Huntley's mobility, it's going 345 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 5: to limit them on third down situations and it'll be 346 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 5: easier for Washington, you know, to just game plan against 347 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 5: the more basic runs. And then the other, which is 348 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 5: crazy for me to say, is special teams. For I 349 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 5: don't know, the last ten years, Utah has had one 350 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 5: of the best special teams units in all of college football. Prennially, 351 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 5: it's just like, hey, the Utes have one of the 352 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 5: best special teams units in all of college football. They 353 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 5: usually have a punter that's on the Ray Guy List, 354 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 5: they have a kickers on the Low Groz Award list, 355 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 5: and they've won it multiple times. But this year, you know, 356 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 5: they lost a lot of guys on special teams and Washington, 357 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 5: by the way, was on the other no spectrum. Their 358 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 5: special teams have been hard, but this year it has 359 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 5: been complete one point eighty and on you know, some 360 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 5: mid season All American lists, you had Washington's kicker Henry 361 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 5: was the first team All American kicker midway through the season. Overall, 362 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 5: the Washington special teams, you know, I think if you 363 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 5: look at SMP, Washington is the number one rated special 364 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 5: teams team in the nation and Utah is seventy eight. 365 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 5: Shocking for how these two teams usually are, so that 366 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 5: could play a major role as well. So Huntly not 367 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 5: being fully healthy, Washington getting some receivers back two weeks 368 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,359 Speaker 5: to prepare, you know, with their run defense looking a 369 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 5: little better against Oregon, and then the special team's edge. 370 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 5: It's just that's what put me over to top here 371 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 5: to take the home dog catching three and a half, 372 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 5: and I think you're getting some value just because you 373 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 5: know they're five and three unranked and people see Utah, 374 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,159 Speaker 5: you know, top ten in the nation, and Utah has 375 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 5: just been obliterating teams. But this is a step up 376 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:36,760 Speaker 5: and on the road in one of the toughest places 377 00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 5: to play in college football. 378 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 4: With your thoughts, yeah, I mean, I completely agree with 379 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 4: you on the special teams, you know, especially from the 380 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,680 Speaker 4: aspect that I don't think Washington has missed a field 381 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 4: goal yet this year. I think they're punting yards is 382 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 4: in the top forty, and they're they're only allowing like 383 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 4: one yard on a punt return, which is top ten. 384 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 4: So there's a lot of things going on there. I 385 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 4: agree with you in taking the Washington. The Washington for 386 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 4: me that I hit earlier in the week, it, you know, 387 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 4: is just based upon a lot of the things you said. 388 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 4: Huntley is not going to be able to get outside 389 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 4: the tackles and he's not going to be able to 390 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,199 Speaker 4: make plays because he's been a little bit hobbled. The 391 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 4: whole thing is I hope that we don't have to 392 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 4: get to that point. I'm really kind of in between 393 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 4: here right I need Utah to win this game badly. 394 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 4: I'm my investments in Utah and their Pac twelve futures 395 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 4: are pretty large. But on a game, you know, on 396 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 4: a single game basis, Washington defensively is eighty eighth in 397 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 4: the line yards, meaning Zach Moss should have success running 398 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 4: the ball, and that sets up Huntley, you know, to 399 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 4: hit these underneath crossing routes that he's really good at hitting. 400 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 4: But you know, if he's flushed from the pocket and 401 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 4: he's forced to beat Washington from outside the tackles, it's 402 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 4: not going to be good news for Utah. I mean, 403 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 4: Utah's defense has been outstanding. If you look on the 404 00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 4: other side of the ball, Utah's defense, you know their 405 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 4: third line yards or eighth and stuff right, and Washington 406 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 4: Washington O line is right up there. Yeah, they're not 407 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 4: going at just protecting Easton. They're one of the best 408 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,640 Speaker 4: protecting Easton. They're also twenty second lineyards and they're twenty 409 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 4: six and stuff right. So that's really where I think 410 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,720 Speaker 4: the biggest battle is going to happen in this game, 411 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 4: and the winner of that is probably going to win 412 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 4: the game. So for me, I'm going to take it 413 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 4: out on Washington plus three and a half market wise, 414 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 4: anytime this number is touched four or it's been hit 415 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 4: hard immediately with a lot of money and come back 416 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 4: down to three and a half, I don't think we're 417 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,719 Speaker 4: gonna see four ever again. To me, this is a 418 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 4: single play on Washington for me, holding tight. Hopefully Utah 419 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 4: wins this game by one, two or three, and that's 420 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 4: how I'm gonna play it. But I'm also somebody that 421 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 4: has a whole lot on Utah futures. So if I 422 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 4: didn't have any Utah futures, whatsoever. I would probably play 423 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 4: Washington for a little bit less. 424 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 5: Yep, good points there, and we'll be talking well, very 425 00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 5: in depth betting guides for each of these games. We'll 426 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 5: also cover them on our Saturday morning show ten thirty 427 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 5: am Eastern. 428 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,679 Speaker 2: Every Saturday, we. 429 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 5: Tweet out we'll tweet out the link, so if you 430 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:39,919 Speaker 5: follow us on Twitter at Stucky two and at Underscore 431 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 5: Colin one with two l's, well, we'll be updating any 432 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 5: injuries that we have and talking about those games in 433 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 5: the entire card and any movements and weather, the whole. 434 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 2: Shebang all right. 435 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,959 Speaker 5: Before we go through conference by conference and pick out 436 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 5: a few games that we either bet or intrigue us 437 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 5: a little bit, we have to talk about, well, we 438 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 5: have to bring back a segment we haven't had in 439 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 5: a while, and that's FCS no. 440 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 1: Southland or SEC, Big Sky or Big Ten. It's time 441 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: to play FC yes or No. 442 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 5: So during the middle of the season we kind of 443 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 5: lack the FBS matchups. 444 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 2: We get them in the beginning of the year. 445 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 5: We'll get some towards the end of the year, especially 446 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 5: on that SEC weekend when the SEC plays it's one 447 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 5: of my favorite weekends. But in the entire SEC seems 448 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 5: to play a FCS team and they're all, you know, 449 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 5: forty forty five point favorites. But we have one this 450 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 5: weekend with Clemson. You know, Clemson, in their brutal schedule, 451 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 5: they have another tough one this weekend against Wafford. And 452 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 5: it's pretty funny and that, you know, you can't even 453 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,719 Speaker 5: tell the difference between the Clemson spreads in conference and 454 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 5: versus the FCS teams. Now, grantit, they're a little higher, 455 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 5: but still Clemson here is a forty six and a 456 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 5: half point favorite over under fifty eight, down from fifty 457 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 5: nine and a half against Wafford to the Terriers. They're 458 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 5: an FCS team now. They were pure triple option, but 459 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 5: they're transitioning a little bit to more of a spread. 460 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 5: You know, three three five is vulnerable against the option, 461 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 5: and so if they're running pure triple option, maybe Wofford can, 462 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 5: it's the great equalizer, can have some success. But I 463 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 5: probably will end up staying away here. But you have 464 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 5: a position on the total, right I do. 465 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, the total opened up fifty nine and a half, 466 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 4: and immediately I started looking into this game because I know, 467 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 4: you know, Wolford being an in state college or and 468 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 4: close to Clemson. I wonder if Dabo's kind of in 469 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 4: the mindset of taking it easy on little brother there 470 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 4: in the state on the FCS level. So what's stuck 471 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 4: is kind of referring to that they used to be 472 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 4: triple option and that they're still an option team. I 473 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 4: have to do a shout out to the Terrier's Twitter 474 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 4: account if you guys go to like Wafford Football, like 475 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 4: their Twitter handle. Amazing amount of video. I don't know 476 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 4: what intern or what college kid is running their Twitter account, 477 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 4: but it's just so much video. And so I got 478 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 4: to watch essentially the entire Wafford Chattanooga game just off 479 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 4: of the Twitter handle last week. So what Stuck is 480 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 4: talking about about what used to be a triple option 481 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 4: is there's always three running backs on the field, and 482 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 4: there's a lot of prestat motion and they've got a 483 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 4: guy going here and they've got a guy going there. 484 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 4: But it's still going to be a thing where they're 485 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 4: in space and the quarterback has going to have at 486 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,159 Speaker 4: least more than one option. He's going to have at 487 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 4: least two options after he keeps the ball, no matter 488 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:30,919 Speaker 4: what formation they're in. It turns into some sort of 489 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,360 Speaker 4: way where he's got at least two decisions to make. 490 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 4: So looking at that, I started diving into the FCS stats. 491 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 4: They're second in FCS and rushing. They're fourth to last 492 00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 4: in the FCS and passing. So passing the ball, I mean, 493 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 4: it's just not a thing that's in their DNA ran second. Yeah, yeah, 494 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,680 Speaker 4: brand New there's second in time of possession in FCS. 495 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 4: Technically not a triple team, but just like a triple 496 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,680 Speaker 4: option team. They're really good at taking long stints of 497 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,359 Speaker 4: having drives that take a lot of time off the clock. 498 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 4: I expect to be a game where hopefully at some point, 499 00:23:03,119 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 4: you know, Watford's gonna be able to go out there 500 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 4: and get some first downs, be able to take them 501 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 4: off the clock. I expect Trevor to get his one 502 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 4: hundred and seventy five yards four touchdowns before Everybody's kid, 503 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 4: the Venables kid, the herb Street kid, all the kids 504 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 4: are in playing And I mean this is in state 505 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,120 Speaker 4: school that just came off of an overtime winning agains Chattanooga. 506 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 4: So how efficient are they going to be? I just 507 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 4: I think everything to me points to the under and 508 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 4: then not saying that I base the play on this whatsoever. 509 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 4: But I went out to Sagaran ratings. But Saguran does 510 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 4: a great job of mixing FBS and FCS power ratings, points, spreads, 511 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 4: and totals. And their total was forty nine. So obviously 512 00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 4: this was about ten points higher than what Sagurn would 513 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 4: have projected at. So, considering that Wawford likes to take 514 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 4: a whole bunch of time off the clock and that 515 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 4: Clemson might not be in a mood to run up 516 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,080 Speaker 4: the score, I think the under is the play. This 517 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 4: thing is going to move, It's going to move really fast. 518 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 4: It's low limits, it's going to move fast. So you know, 519 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 4: fifty six is obviously key number you want to have 520 00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 4: your ear totals, you know, come with in your divisions 521 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 4: of seven, so you know fifty six and then maybe 522 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 4: fifty two because of forty nine in a field goal. 523 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 4: So keep that in mind when you're looking at your totals. 524 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 5: Fair enough there, And the other thing to keep in 525 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 5: mind with these teams that are potentially playoff bound at 526 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 5: the FCS level, whether it's laid the season or the 527 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,600 Speaker 5: mid season, and they're playing someone that they know they 528 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 5: can't beat, that there's no reason at all to show 529 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 5: anything or play anybody. I've seen some of these fcss 530 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 5: where they'll bench their quarterback be like, all right, let's 531 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 5: get paid and get out healthy. So that would also 532 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 5: help the under as well if Wlawford takes that approach. 533 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:35,159 Speaker 5: All right, let's move on to the rest of the slate, 534 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 5: FBS slate that is, and we'll go through conference by 535 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 5: conference alphabetically. We'll start in the AAC, Tulsa and Tulane. 536 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 5: I'm going back to the well with Tulsa. This team 537 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 5: continues to be undervalued as an underdog. They can never 538 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 5: win these games. You know, they even blew it against 539 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 5: SMU as twelve point underdogs. There are twelve point underdogs 540 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,439 Speaker 5: at SMU now ten and a half point under dogs 541 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 5: at Tulane. But they should have won that game. I 542 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 5: mean it ended up going to overtime. You know, they 543 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 5: didn't cover against Navy, but as I said all week 544 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 5: that three to three five against Navy, Navy shreds them 545 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 5: every single year. It's a horrible matchup. They covered as 546 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,480 Speaker 5: a dog at Cincy. You know, they covered as a 547 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 5: dog against Memphis last week and almost won the game 548 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 5: against Oklahoma State earlier in the year, they were up 549 00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,120 Speaker 5: in the second half and Oklahoma State broke a run 550 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 5: running out the clock. So this team continues to outperform, 551 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:24,560 Speaker 5: and I think it's just because of their record. But 552 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 5: their defense. Their offensive line is bad, they are undisciplined, 553 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 5: but their defenses plays well. They'll hit enough plays on 554 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 5: offense to stay competitive. The other factor here also Tulane 555 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 5: always comes out slow every single game, and they might 556 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 5: come out really slow this week. Luckily they came back 557 00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 5: and got us to cover against Navy last week, but 558 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 5: Tulane has to be devastated. I mean, this team had 559 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 5: all of the optimism in the world after that huge start. 560 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 5: They were going to Memphis and they got blown out 561 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 5: forty seven to seventeen. Next week they're at Navy, still 562 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 5: have a shot in the AAC in that division, but 563 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 5: they have to win that game, and they lose it 564 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,200 Speaker 5: on a fifty yard Navy field goal as time expired. 565 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 5: They're coming all the way back. So now they come 566 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 5: home for Tulsa. They still are playing for Bowl Eligibot. 567 00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 5: I mean, they need one more win. They have four 568 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 5: more games left. It's not the easiest schedule, but this 569 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 5: screams flat spot for just a really disappointed. 570 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 2: TWU lane team. 571 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 5: And they have their running backs, they've had injuries in 572 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 5: their backfield as well. So I'm going back to the 573 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 5: wall with Tulsa's a double digit dog. 574 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 4: Anything there for you, I completely agree. The only reason 575 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:27,919 Speaker 4: I didn't pay attention to this line all week is 576 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 4: because I had it set at twelve and a half 577 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 4: and it was lower. So I mean, anything they would 578 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 4: have got to thirteen would have got my attention. But 579 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 4: the cases that you make for two lane and the 580 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 4: reasons you know for them not being in this gift 581 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 4: ball game, I'm just not realizing the two lane is 582 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 4: heading into a buy after this. So how much do they, 583 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 4: you know, want to put up a big score, put 584 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 4: in a whole bunch of effort here when they might 585 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 4: be struggling, you know, just with bumps and bruises and 586 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 4: the physicality of their schedule, just to get into a 587 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 4: bye week against a Tulsa team here. And you know, 588 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 4: we said this last week. The reason we like Tulsa. 589 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 4: You know, they're covering and they're keeping it within one score, 590 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 4: and they're they're keeping it close against teams that are 591 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 4: dominantly good at the pass Tulsa is fifteenth in the 592 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 4: country an opponent passing success rate, and you know two 593 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 4: lane can can do both. I mean they can run 594 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 4: and pass, but you know they're going to be able. 595 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 4: Tulsa is going to be able to take that aspect, 596 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 4: the passing aspect away from two lane, which is going 597 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 4: to give more value to the double digit number. And 598 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 4: I can see right now that this is heading to 599 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 4: ten and and it may pick up and even get 600 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,199 Speaker 4: into single digits. So I like that. I'm probably going 601 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 4: to be joining you. 602 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, And Tulsa has two home games after this, and 603 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 5: then you know, then they're at ECU to close the year. 604 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 5: One of the home games is UCF, but the other 605 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 5: hit games against Houston and ECU, which are winnable. 606 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 2: So this is their last shot at they're. 607 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:45,120 Speaker 5: Two and six at any hope of getting to a bowl, right, 608 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 5: So if they lose this game, they're not going to 609 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 5: a bowl. If they win it, they have a shot. 610 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 5: So you know, this team continues to fight, which I like. 611 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 5: And the other you know, big game in the AC 612 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,679 Speaker 5: which almost qualified as a marquee game is between SMU 613 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 5: and Memphis. Defeated SMU at eight no. At Memphis who's 614 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:07,080 Speaker 5: seven and one Memphis here is a up to a 615 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 5: five and a half point favorite. I remember tweeting out 616 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,199 Speaker 5: when this came out, this line is gonna move. This 617 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 5: line is wrong at Memphis minus three. I just think 618 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 5: Memphis is the better team, especially with Roberson one of 619 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 5: their best receivers, SEM's best receivers. I don't think it's 620 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 5: gonna play, but Memphis looked. I think that this line 621 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 5: opened at three just because SMU is undefeated at eight. No, 622 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 5: but if you really look at it, SMU should have 623 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 5: lost to Tulsa and they could have easily lost. I 624 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 5: mean it was a miracle win miracle, and they could 625 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,959 Speaker 5: have easily lost to Houston. But they won those games. 626 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 5: Credit to them. But they're eight to noh, you know, 627 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 5: they're number fifteen in the country and the Memphis seven 628 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 5: and one. But the only game they lost was against 629 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,479 Speaker 5: Temple in the game that they had no business losing 630 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 5: out right at least, you know, in that game they 631 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,479 Speaker 5: had I think they had three turnovers early on. They 632 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 5: outgained Temple in that game four ninety two to four 633 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 5: to fifty six over a yard per play better. 634 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 2: So that's why I thought you were getting initial value 635 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 2: with Memphis. Loss of Roberson is big. Memphis is rolling. 636 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 2: This team is legit. I think they get this win 637 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 2: at home in the Liberty Bowl. I like it up, 638 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 2: you know, up up to six, I'd play it. 639 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 4: There's something about SMU that bothers me. I get I'll 640 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 4: get to that, but you're completely right. SMU is living 641 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 4: on borrowed time. You know, these one possession victories against Houston, 642 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 4: against Tulsa, against TCU, their net turnovers in those games 643 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 4: was plus five. So you can say that there's just 644 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 4: been a little bit of luck has been on their 645 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 4: side with the way that the ball has bounced. And 646 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 4: if you look at the advanced stats, you know Memphis 647 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,240 Speaker 4: is going to have a lot of advantages here. Their 648 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 4: twenty eighth and rushing explosiveness something SMU is around ninetieth. 649 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:40,040 Speaker 4: And defending you know Memphis is fifth, and passing explosiveness 650 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 4: something SMU is sixty six. That so there's a lot 651 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 4: of things and the what's going to happen in between 652 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 4: the goal lines that's going to really favor Memphis with 653 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 4: an explosive offense. So Memphis is a complete team and 654 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 4: they should get the win here. The thing that just 655 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 4: really bothers me about SMU is that they're eleventh in 656 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 4: Havoc and their twentieth and Havoc allowed, and Memphis is 657 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 4: on the other end of the spectrum in those categories. 658 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 4: So there's a thing with this number where I knew 659 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:05,960 Speaker 4: it was going to rise, like you, I knew it 660 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 4: was going to take off and it was going to 661 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 4: go up, and I just kind of had this feeling 662 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 4: that at some point, either I'm going to be contrarian 663 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 4: in the fact that I'm going to take the last 664 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 4: SMU number out there, no matter how far this steams, 665 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 4: or I'm going to take an under on this game, 666 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 4: which I project to be about sixty four. I think 667 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 4: I think over seventy one is a little bit too 668 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 4: much considering, you know, some of the things that these 669 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 4: teams won't have at their advantage. So I'm going to 670 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 4: be go ahead and I'm going to wait for both 671 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 4: numbers to steam, and I'll make a decision. But more 672 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 4: than likely, I think I'm going to have an under 673 00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 4: on this game. 674 00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 5: Fair enough, all right, let's move on to the big twelve, 675 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,479 Speaker 5: and it is you know, if West Virginia Baylor tonight, 676 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 5: but it's one of the worst Big Twelve slates. You'll 677 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 5: see there's only three games. Two on Saturday, TCU at 678 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 5: Oak State. If you can figure out Oak State, God 679 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 5: bless you. Looks like Tylan Wallace is out for the 680 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 5: year with a torn acl not confirmed yet but pretty 681 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 5: good sources saying that. But that lines down to two 682 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 5: and a half and then Kansas State, Kansas Kansas State 683 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 5: minus five and a half minus at Kansas I took 684 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 5: Kansas plus six and you do have a slight hangover 685 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 5: effect after that win for Kansas State. This is a 686 00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 5: huge game for Kansas after two straight wins, trying to 687 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 5: get to Bowl eligibility. Could be a huge game for 688 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 5: Puka and the rushing attack and that new explosive offense 689 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 5: for Kansas. What do you see in either one of 690 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 5: those games or both? 691 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 4: Kansas is me right now because I'm about to go 692 00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 4: to Vegas. I'm just going to be at the craps 693 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,719 Speaker 4: table or the blackjack table. I'm just gonna let it roll. 694 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 4: If I get a hot streak, I was gonna let 695 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 4: it roll. And I think that's what Kansas football is 696 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 4: right now. Kansas State may be hungover from a game 697 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 4: against Oklahoma. I mean they're very well coached, so we 698 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 4: don't really know how they're going to respond in such 699 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 4: a huge win. You know, but Kansas is still putting 700 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 4: up yards eleven hundred yards over the past two weeks, 701 00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 4: and the Jayhawks are explosive. Their twenty seventh in rush explosiveness, 702 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 4: their eighteenth in pass explosiveness. Kansas State is one hundred 703 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 4: and twenty eighth, and opponent rush explosives is Pooka Williams. 704 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 4: If you're on any fantasy college fantasy teams, you're gonna 705 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 4: get into, you know, some some daily fantasy stuff and 706 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 4: pull a running back. I'd pull Pooka Williams. But as 707 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 4: far as handicapping this game, I mean, the number about 708 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 4: where I thought it was. The projected total is about 709 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 4: where I thought it was. I think Vegas is starting 710 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 4: to wake up to what Kansas is doing offensively. I 711 00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 4: think they have adjusted to the numbers correctly. I'm a 712 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 4: hot guy at the craps table right now and I'm 713 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 4: playing over in Jayhawks until I lose. 714 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 5: All right, let's move on to the Big Ten. I mean, 715 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 5: this is a really gross Big ten slate. You know, 716 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 5: you have Nebraska minus three and a half of Purdue. 717 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 5: I have no interest there. I'm probably gonna end up 718 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 5: playing Rutgers. Illinois off back to back wins is double 719 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 5: digit underdogs. I mean last week there were nine and 720 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,360 Speaker 5: a half, but somewhere around there, and then they'd beat 721 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 5: Wisconsin and now I think that they're just a little 722 00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 5: inflated in the market. 723 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 2: And Rotgers. 724 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,479 Speaker 5: You know, we talked about Snyder being available if they 725 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 5: need them, but Langan finally got some confidence last week 726 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 5: against Liberty, which I think will go a huge way. 727 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 5: I just think this line is way over inflated. I 728 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 5: think it should be closer to two touchdowns in twenty 729 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,720 Speaker 5: and especially if we get twenty one, I will be 730 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,239 Speaker 5: all over Rutgers. It's gross, I know, but we were 731 00:32:55,280 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 5: there last week as well. Northwestern Indiana Cats. It's the 732 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 5: first night game at the Memorial Stadium in what fifty 733 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 5: five years, and they have to watch the Northwestern offense. 734 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 5: I mean, Northwestern has to be the best under team 735 00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 5: in the history of Power five conferences. They just have 736 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 5: a really good defense and they cannot move. They can't 737 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 5: get a first down, so that over under is crashed 738 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 5: down to forty four. I think it's under or nothing 739 00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 5: in that game, although you've lost a lot of value now. 740 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 2: Crossing from forty seven to forty four. 741 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 5: Then we have Michigan Maryland, Michigan lank twenty one at 742 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 5: Maryland Maryland, all. 743 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 2: Kinds of injuries. I mean, this is a mess. 744 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 5: That's to you know, you have two coaches, Loxley and 745 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 5: the offensive coordinator familiar with each other. 746 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 2: I know you have an angle on that. 747 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 5: What do you like in Terps Wolverines? 748 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, before we get to that, I think the Rutgers 749 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 4: game is interesting that. I mean, they were able to 750 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 4: push the liberty around the churches on both sides of 751 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:46,920 Speaker 4: it was really good watch. It should be able, it 752 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 4: should be fun to see if they carry that over. 753 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,400 Speaker 4: And remember, this is the last I don't want to 754 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 4: say easy game, but this is the last time that 755 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 4: Rutgers can be competitive in a game. I mean, their 756 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 4: remaining schedule is just murderer's row between Penn State, Ohio State, 757 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 4: I think Michigan. I think that's how they're closing out 758 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 4: the season. So I mean, this is it. 759 00:34:05,080 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 2: If wins down, they go to a ball By the way. 760 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 4: That's hilarious. I fell out of my chair. I know 761 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 4: it's a huge spread, but this is the last time, 762 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 4: they're going to be able to be competitive. And don't 763 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 4: forget a thing at that highly touted recruit, the Snyder 764 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 4: kid at quarterback and this may and they've saved his 765 00:34:18,520 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 4: red shirt enough that he can get some experience in 766 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 4: this game. So I actually like Rutgers in that one too. 767 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,720 Speaker 4: But I'm going to flip over to a very ugly 768 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 4: gross I didn't want to play it, but I have 769 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 4: to play because the numbers out of control. I see 770 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:32,959 Speaker 4: the spot, I see the angle, all this other junk, 771 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 4: and that has to do with Michigan and Maryland, Mike Loxley, 772 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 4: Josh Gaddis angle is I'm not sure how it plays 773 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 4: into the game other than the fact that I think 774 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:43,080 Speaker 4: Mike Loxley, head coach from Maryland, is going to be 775 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 4: more focused on both sides of the ball of getting 776 00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 4: the best that he can get out of his team 777 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 4: in this game because his relationship with his former assistant 778 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 4: Josh Gaddis, who's the offensive coordinator at Michigan, has deteriorated 779 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 4: since they both left Alabama last year. There was a 780 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 4: little bit of a dust up in August first, even 781 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 4: though who started it, but you know, Josh Gatt is 782 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 4: saying I designed the plays. Mike Loxley might have called 783 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 4: the plays, but I'm the one that designed the plays. 784 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 4: We all know, you know who Monday through Friday, who 785 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 4: it was in the meeting room and the offensive coaching 786 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 4: staff meeting room, who was designing the plays? And Locksley, 787 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 4: you know, only retorted with there's a difference between designing 788 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:19,640 Speaker 4: the plays and then being the one that makes the 789 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 4: decisions that actually call the plays. And so I don't 790 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,800 Speaker 4: think these two were mincing words. They just do not 791 00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,320 Speaker 4: like each other, not even being nice about it. So 792 00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 4: I think you're going to get a full effort focus 793 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 4: out of Mike Loxley as to where Michigan. You know, 794 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 4: they're coming off two primetime games lost against Penn State, 795 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 4: huge win against Notre Dame, so we could find them 796 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 4: flat and what is a noon kick on the road here, 797 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,480 Speaker 4: And remember Michigan's just not the same team on the 798 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 4: road as they are at home. In these kind of games, 799 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 4: at home, they bully people around, they'd be the by 800 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 4: a whole bunch of points. That's just not what Michigan 801 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 4: has ever been on the road when they've been in 802 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 4: this spot is a big favorite. Maryland is getting healthy. 803 00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 4: Their left guard Terrence Davis is back, their star running 804 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 4: back Anthony McFarlane. He's one hundred percent. And you got 805 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 4: to remember Josh Jackson coming in the game game last week. 806 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 4: The game plan in the scheme wasn't built for him 807 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,319 Speaker 4: last week. He had to come in this week. He's 808 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 4: getting all the reps with the first string. I made 809 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,560 Speaker 4: this game Maryland plus nineteen, so once it got to 810 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:11,839 Speaker 4: twenty one and a half, and I don't think it's 811 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,239 Speaker 4: done moving. I think twenty one a half is going 812 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,479 Speaker 4: to be widely available for everyone looking at the market 813 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 4: right now. So I would just kind of hang out 814 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 4: and grab the hook on this. But the Michigan could 815 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 4: run three hundred four hundred yards on the ground against 816 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 4: this Maryland front seven. I understand that, But how badly 817 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 4: do they want to do that in this game? And 818 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 4: how focus has Locksley been on coaching his team up 819 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,800 Speaker 4: this week. The only thing that scares me in that 820 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,359 Speaker 4: game why I might not be getting involved. I mean, 821 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:36,760 Speaker 4: Jackson still, he just looks lost. 822 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 2: He is so shuck. He has no confidence right now. 823 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 5: Some of the throat he makes what happened to that's 824 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,440 Speaker 5: so bad? I don't know Maryland is one of these 825 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 5: teams this year. That's just they go out and they'll 826 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 5: just roll some shitty team that they're better than. And 827 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 5: then anytime they play a team at the Pulse, they. 828 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 2: Get smashed me. 829 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 5: And that's what's happened to them against anybody. But you 830 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 5: make some good points there, and it does appear that 831 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,279 Speaker 5: there's some value in the number. All right, let's move 832 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 5: on to the confident to USA. You want to talk 833 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 5: about an ugly Conference USA slate, and the Conference USA 834 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 5: slate is usually ugly. 835 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 2: We have U TEP. 836 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 4: We're talking minor nation out in the West Texans town 837 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:15,840 Speaker 4: of l Pastor. 838 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 5: Picks up U TEP catching twenty three at North Texas. 839 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 2: No thank you. 840 00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:24,960 Speaker 4: If there's a team that U TIP can beat, I 841 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 4: think it might be North Texas. North Texas is really bad, 842 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 4: Like they're really bad. I don't know. 843 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,280 Speaker 5: We'll see Marshall Lank ten and a half at Rice. 844 00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:36,680 Speaker 5: I'm tempted by Rice again, but I'm just absolutely devastated 845 00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 5: still from how they didn't cover last week. 846 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 4: Can I throw a shout out to our to podcast 847 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 4: friend Brett McMurphy real quick. He put out this great 848 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,760 Speaker 4: article about the band that the all the head coaches 849 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 4: listen to like the music that they're into, and like 850 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 4: what their top band is that they listen to. Did 851 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 4: you see what Doc Hollidays is. No, he doesn't have one. 852 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 4: He like, doesn't listen to music at whatsoever. He was 853 00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 4: the only one on the list. He said, I don't 854 00:37:58,800 --> 00:37:59,439 Speaker 4: listen to music. 855 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 2: It was the crazy. 856 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 4: It was like you and I have talked about how 857 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,880 Speaker 4: conservative Holiday is, but the fact that he responded like 858 00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 4: he's the only coach he responded, like, I don't listen 859 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 4: to music at all. 860 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 2: That's hilarious. I did not see that. I got to 861 00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 2: look that up. 862 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 5: It's a gross coffeece essay slate. But you know we 863 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 5: have UAB Tennessee. Tennessee is laying twelve at home to 864 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 5: UAB and UAB is six and one and Charlotte catching 865 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 5: three and a half now at home against Middle Tennessee 866 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 5: State is fairly interesting for two three and five teams. 867 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 2: It's an important game for both. What do you see 868 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:28,399 Speaker 2: in the conference essay? 869 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna go with Charlotte again this week. I'm 870 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 4: gonna write him. I mean, they should have covered the 871 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 4: game last week. I'm glad they did. But they won outright, 872 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 4: which is one of the craziest comebacks I've ever seen them. 873 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 4: Thirty five, yeah, thirty five twenty one in North Texas. 874 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 4: I think people don't realize that the forty nine ers 875 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 4: are ninth and explosive rush with Benny LeMay, but they're 876 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 4: also thirty seventh in explosive pass. So this offense can 877 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 4: get it done. That's just a trade of their head 878 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 4: coach Healy that they got from Austin p And I 879 00:38:54,239 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 4: think that you know, there's going to be probably calling 880 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 4: running around in March and April, probably looking for sharks. 881 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 4: The Futures'll be one of the weird people out there 882 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 4: while baseball starts back up. I'll be looking for hitting 883 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 4: forty nine ers futures in Conference USA. But both teams 884 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 4: are three and five. They're in survival mode for bolseason. 885 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,000 Speaker 4: Middle Tennessee's you know, with Ashraro Hair, they had a 886 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,919 Speaker 4: couple other running backs I think hit one hundred yards 887 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 4: last week. Really pathetic game from Florida International, didn't even 888 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 4: show up in the second half in a storm. You 889 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 4: would think being from Miami that you'd be able to 890 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 4: play and rain. But Middle Tennessee State's defense. Theyre one 891 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 4: hundred and seventh against the rush one hundred and thirteenth 892 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 4: and passing success rate on defense that's just not going 893 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,280 Speaker 4: to get it done against this forty nine ers offense. 894 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 4: Charlotte's going to have every opportunity to have a successful play. 895 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:40,240 Speaker 4: And when Charlotte gets successful plays, they turn into huge plays. 896 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 4: Middle Tennessee State on defense is dead last and sack 897 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 4: rate dead last in the nation. I think Charlotte's going 898 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 4: to be able to if they can, you know, put 899 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 4: some drives together and get some success rate of their 900 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 4: own going. And we know they could be explosive, but 901 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 4: they need to be able to string things together. But 902 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 4: I mean, you just watch a couple of the plays 903 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 4: from last week against North Texas. This Charlotte offense is 904 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 4: jellen right now. They're able to score on anyone. I 905 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:04,720 Speaker 4: think they're going to do it against Middle Tennessee. 906 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,279 Speaker 5: You jellen, you jelling. I'm surprised this line is gone 907 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,000 Speaker 5: across the three. 908 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to have to look at Charlotte with you. 909 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 5: Anything involves Vall's uab your boys in Birmingham. 910 00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:15,920 Speaker 4: I wrote about that earlier in the week in our 911 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 4: Havoc piece that I wanted UAB pretty bad. It was 912 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:23,240 Speaker 4: one of the biggest discrepancies this week in college football 913 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:25,400 Speaker 4: as far as the Blazers, the ones that are be 914 00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 4: able to bring the habit going up against Tennessee. Frankly 915 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 4: is in some sort of conference Sandwich and may not 916 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 4: care about this game whatsoever. UAB fifth in the nation, 917 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,760 Speaker 4: Havoc Tennessee ninety ninth and Havoc allowed. 918 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:35,880 Speaker 1: Now. 919 00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 4: I know a lot of that is quarterback play and 920 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 4: some of the mistakes that they've made in the past, 921 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,320 Speaker 4: but UAB is able to assert their will on defense. 922 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 4: I mean, Bill clark is the head coach, is fantastic. 923 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 4: Circa opened up this line at thirteen, and then everybody 924 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,000 Speaker 4: else opened it up at eleven, and it dipped down 925 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:53,000 Speaker 4: to nine and a half at one point before everybody 926 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,000 Speaker 4: started buying into Tennessee. As I'm looking across the landscape 927 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 4: right now, massive amount of twelve and a half's out there. 928 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 4: I'm going to sit going to be patient as an investor, 929 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 4: I'm going to wait for this to get thirteen. Maybe 930 00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,280 Speaker 4: some blind Tennessee sec steam can get me a thirteen 931 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 4: and a half and I can buy a little juice 932 00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 4: get up to fourteen, but don't front UAB is going 933 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 4: to be on the card. Money lined is being heavily 934 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,239 Speaker 4: considered for my money line Round Robin for whatever video 935 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 4: I shoot later on tonight. But yeah, I love the 936 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 4: Blazers here. 937 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,959 Speaker 5: Let's move on to the Mountain West, where we will 938 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 5: vehemently disagree on a game. Army Air Force air Force 939 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:32,359 Speaker 5: sixteen point favorite over under forty five. This line's ticked up. Look, 940 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:34,360 Speaker 5: I don't think I've lost an Army game since I 941 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 5: went against everything I wrote about last week in my 942 00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 5: Triple Option betting Guide, which was when I played Michigan 943 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:46,360 Speaker 5: against Army Service Academies break Models and Army Sticks. 944 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:49,439 Speaker 2: I've been fading them every week for the past month. 945 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:53,520 Speaker 5: This is an equalizer game for them because the clock's 946 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 5: going to be bleeding. 947 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:55,839 Speaker 2: By the way, I'm going to be on this under 948 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 2: as well. I'm hoping. 949 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 5: I'm trying to get forty six over unders in Service 950 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 5: Academies games since two thousand and five thirty three nine 951 00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 5: and one. That's seventy eight point six percent against the close. 952 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 5: That's a fifty two percent ROI. It's even better if 953 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 5: you look at when it opens. Army Air Force unders 954 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:13,640 Speaker 5: since two thousand and five, nine to four and one 955 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 5: just under seventy percent they go under by a touchdown 956 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 5: a game. I almost blindly fade service academies as double digit. 957 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 2: Favorites and look as favorites. 958 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 5: Service academies are one, fourteen, one, forty nine and five 959 00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:31,920 Speaker 5: since last fifteen years. That's forty three point three percent 960 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:36,439 Speaker 5: double digit, forty percent, fourteen plus thirty nine percent, twenty 961 00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,880 Speaker 5: plus thirty four percent, twenty seven plus thirty six percent 962 00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 5: favorites in Service Academy games between two service academies seventeen, 963 00:42:43,880 --> 00:42:47,320 Speaker 5: twenty five and one forty and a half percent favorites 964 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,600 Speaker 5: over fourteen thirty seven percent In Service Academy games, it's 965 00:42:51,600 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 5: always been Army as a dog. Army's been a dog 966 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 5: of more than fourteen eight times in the last fifteen years. 967 00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:01,920 Speaker 5: In a Service Academy game they lost by four, seven, ten, fourteen, seventeen, 968 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 5: twenty twelve, and twenty eight. Basically got blown out in 969 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 5: one game. The rest they're right there. These two teams 970 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:13,280 Speaker 5: are obviously very familiar with each other. They practice against 971 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 5: the triple option. The clock will be bleeding. Air Force 972 00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:20,320 Speaker 5: is significantly better than Army, but the option is going 973 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:23,000 Speaker 5: to equalize this game. It's going to give Army a shot. 974 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,920 Speaker 5: It's why Army is a straight fade as a favorite, 975 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 5: because the option is a great equalizer against teams that 976 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 5: are in superior to you. It's what happened against Oklahoma, 977 00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:36,759 Speaker 5: It's what happened against Michigan. It's what I think is 978 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 5: going to happen here. 979 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 2: You're going to have a. 980 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,720 Speaker 5: Should have a focused Army team that's just been reeling. 981 00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 5: Lost at home to Santa This is a team that 982 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 5: didn't lose at home for years. Lost at home to 983 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 5: San Jose State. They lost that, you know, at Georgia State. 984 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:52,840 Speaker 5: They lost at Western Kentucky, they lost at home the 985 00:43:52,880 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 5: two lane. They went oh to four in October. You know, 986 00:43:56,840 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 5: so now they get a chance at City at three 987 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,520 Speaker 5: and five, you know, for Bowl eligibility. They have UMass 988 00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 5: at home next week and VMI. This is the game, 989 00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 5: this is the game that is going to make or 990 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 5: break their season after such a disappointing year. You're going 991 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 5: to get their best effort here. Air force is significantly 992 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:21,040 Speaker 5: better offensively and defensively. Option equalizes it auto play for 993 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 5: me catching two touchdowns in a Service Academy game, I. 994 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 4: Can't disagree with anything that you said. I guess ninety 995 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 4: nine percent agree with everything that you said. The Service 996 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 4: academy is favored by this much is a joke because 997 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 4: of the triple option, because of the time of possession, 998 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 4: because of how many offensive plays that you have. There's 999 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:41,200 Speaker 4: just not that many possessions. It's like watching the Missouri 1000 00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 4: Valley Conference tournament game in Saint Louis, right, there's just 1001 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 4: not as. 1002 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,319 Speaker 5: You're going against another option which you don't benefit from, 1003 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 5: which you normally do, right. 1004 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 4: And then I'm going to throw that all out the window. 1005 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:56,319 Speaker 4: I mean, I have never disagreed with you. And how 1006 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 4: to handicap service academies, by the book, is how everybody 1007 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,399 Speaker 4: should ha cap service academies. And the problem with all 1008 00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:05,040 Speaker 4: that is is that Air Force is hot pissed about 1009 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 4: this game, really pissed off so much that they came 1010 00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 4: off a blowout of Utah State. They got back to 1011 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 4: the locker room and immediately their head coach reminded them 1012 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 4: that President Trump and Jeff Munkin both had a laugh 1013 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 4: at their expense. After Army, the football team went to 1014 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:23,800 Speaker 4: the nation's capital and was presented with the Commander in 1015 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 4: chiefs Trophy last year, and Trump's comment was, you know, 1016 00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 4: Army beat a air Force team, and air Force is 1017 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 4: really Trump. Trump said, this air Force is really tough 1018 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 4: to beat. They're almost and he turns around, he looks 1019 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:34,879 Speaker 4: at Monkey and he says, they're always tough to beat, 1020 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 4: aren't they? And Munkin said, flat out not that tough. 1021 00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 4: That was brought up. That whole conversation that Trump had 1022 00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:42,080 Speaker 4: with Jeff Munkin was brought up the second they hit 1023 00:45:42,120 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 4: the locker room from Utah State. The motivation on air 1024 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 4: Force side, I think can't be any higher right now, 1025 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 4: and the fact that they may be able to contribute 1026 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 4: to the fact that Army might not make a bowl. 1027 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 4: Air Force is just having peak offense right now. Their 1028 00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 4: sixth in line yards, they're first in the nation and 1029 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 4: stuff rate. On the offensive side of the ball, they're 1030 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 4: getting to the line of screen, they're going even farther. 1031 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 4: They're doing what they have to do to have successful 1032 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 4: plays on the ground in the offense. Army's defense completely 1033 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 4: on the other side, the defense is one hundred. In 1034 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,319 Speaker 4: line yards, they're ninety seventh and stuff rate. They can't 1035 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 4: stop anybody from filling the gaps. I think the air 1036 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:18,239 Speaker 4: Force offense is going to run wild in this game, 1037 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:20,719 Speaker 4: and I think it's going to be a gentleman's run 1038 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 4: up of the score. So I think this is the 1039 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 4: thing where air Force has a clear advantage on the 1040 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 4: ground and they are going to run Army out of 1041 00:46:28,120 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 4: the building. 1042 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,800 Speaker 5: The Army stinks. I've said this before. They're on offense 1043 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:34,719 Speaker 5: and defense and they might get blown out here. But 1044 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 5: I'm not worried about the motivation of Army kids. They're 1045 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 5: going to be up for this game. And look, if 1046 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,359 Speaker 5: I lose it, I'm fine with it. I the one 1047 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,160 Speaker 5: time I ever strayed, I got burnt, and I will 1048 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 5: not get burnt here. If I lose, I'll tip my 1049 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,160 Speaker 5: cap to air Force. I'll tip my cap to your 1050 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:52,560 Speaker 5: trump angle and move on and do the same thing 1051 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 5: again in the future with service academies. All right, packed, 1052 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:58,280 Speaker 5: So let's move out of the PAC twelve. We already 1053 00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 5: covered Utah, Washington. We have Colorado UCLA. Colorado is intriguing me. 1054 00:47:02,600 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 5: I mean, the UCLA is playing really well, but Colorado 1055 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:08,480 Speaker 5: with their receivers against at UCLA pass defense at seven, 1056 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:10,359 Speaker 5: I think might be worth a look. You know, if 1057 00:47:10,440 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 5: Oregon State at Arizona, which could turn into a shootout 1058 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 5: over unders up to seventy two, and then the most 1059 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,880 Speaker 5: intriguing game, Oregon at USC. Oregon's lank four and a 1060 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 5: half points here over under sixty two. There's a couple 1061 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:24,959 Speaker 5: I want to play USC and I'm probably I'm waiting 1062 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 5: to get updates on all of their defenders and it's 1063 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 5: so hard to get. But it looks like some of 1064 00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:31,880 Speaker 5: their guys are going to be back. Their linebacker Drake Jackson. 1065 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 5: You know guys are going to play in the NFL. 1066 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 5: But there's a couple others. I mean, USC has been 1067 00:47:35,920 --> 00:47:37,839 Speaker 5: decimated by injury, especially on the defensive side of the ball, 1068 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 5: end a running back, but especially on the defensive side 1069 00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 5: of the ball. But I throw out at some of 1070 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 5: the results that we've seen the last couple of weeks. 1071 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 5: I also think that Slovas plays a lot better at home, 1072 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,800 Speaker 5: young kid. He's made some mistakes on the road, but 1073 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 5: this offense is explosive, and we saw Oregon get picked 1074 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 5: apart the last couple of weeks. Now, one thing maybe 1075 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 5: working in their favor is they saw a very similar 1076 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 5: offense last week in Washington. Staterobably should have beat Oregon, 1077 00:48:01,120 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 5: but you know it benefited Utah. I remember when Utah 1078 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:07,120 Speaker 5: played USC and lost, and the next week they played 1079 00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:11,759 Speaker 5: Washington State and basically shut them completely down. But I 1080 00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:13,840 Speaker 5: still think this is a few too many points. This 1081 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,759 Speaker 5: USC offense is explosive. They get some of their defenders back. 1082 00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:19,959 Speaker 5: I think I'm playing the Trojans. What are your thoughts 1083 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 5: on this end or or anything else in the Pac twelve. 1084 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:24,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's the reason that I played USC early 1085 00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:26,800 Speaker 4: in the week I have the number power rank of 1086 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 4: five and a half. It was at five and a 1087 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 4: half earlier in the weekend. I went ahead and take it. 1088 00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 4: Took it, I would take it down to three and 1089 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 4: a half. And I think that's probably what's going to 1090 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,359 Speaker 4: happen if we get the announcement of some of these 1091 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 4: defensive ends and linebackers and even the running back Stephen Carr. 1092 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 4: I mean to me, that's big because while Oregon's defense 1093 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:46,319 Speaker 4: got plenty of repetition in practice against air raid last 1094 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:47,920 Speaker 4: week and they weren't able to stop it, and they 1095 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 4: allowed what four hundred yards of passing against Washington State, 1096 00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,239 Speaker 4: you know, having Stephen Carr back against Oregon's defense is 1097 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 4: at least something else that USC can go to. But 1098 00:48:56,840 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 4: you see gets plenty of players back on both sides 1099 00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 4: of the ball that they didn't have in the Colorado 1100 00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:02,960 Speaker 4: game where they had to make a massive comeback. Cornerback 1101 00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 4: Chris Steele's back, defensive end, Christian Rector, and there's just 1102 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:07,959 Speaker 4: a host of other players that are important that haven't 1103 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,239 Speaker 4: been announced. And so Oregon, you know, they had issues 1104 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,240 Speaker 4: against a raid once again, something about christ Ball coaching teams. 1105 00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 4: There's a really long history where he just has not 1106 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:17,400 Speaker 4: been able to figure it out whatsoever. Now, I know 1107 00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,200 Speaker 4: Wazoo's playing better defense, but the fact that they were 1108 00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 4: able to throw for that much against an Oregon team 1109 00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 4: that's being considered for the College Football Playoff really tells 1110 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 4: me something here. But USC has top ten passing success 1111 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 4: rate numbers much like Wazoo, but the Trojans have a 1112 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 4: much more efficient defense against the past. That's the difference 1113 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,959 Speaker 4: between Wazoo and USC's. USC can really play against the past. 1114 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:37,719 Speaker 4: But I'm not even sure if Herbert's going to throw 1115 00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 4: that much because I mean, the Oregon has turned into 1116 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,839 Speaker 4: a run first team, They've turned into a bruising team. 1117 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 4: I think Herbert, I mean, you want to talk about 1118 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:47,319 Speaker 4: a guy who's fallen off the face of the earth. 1119 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 4: As far as a Heisman discussion, it'd be Trevor Lawrence 1120 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:53,000 Speaker 4: and Justin Herbert. You know, Oregon's centered around the rush, 1121 00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:56,040 Speaker 4: but USC's tenth and opponent red zone touchdown scoring. They're 1122 00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 4: really good in the red zone on defense, and they 1123 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:00,440 Speaker 4: get a lot of good players back, So you know, 1124 00:50:00,480 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 4: I think anything over a field goal, I think you're 1125 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:03,960 Speaker 4: taking USC in this game. 1126 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,080 Speaker 2: USC. You know they do that. 1127 00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 5: They their guys are banged up, but they got through Colorado, 1128 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 5: they got through Arizona. I think if anyone's on the 1129 00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:13,839 Speaker 5: border line here, they're going to bring them back this week, 1130 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,919 Speaker 5: and they they're important to get those guys back because 1131 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,720 Speaker 5: without them, you can run all over USC. With Oregon's 1132 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,160 Speaker 5: offensive line, that would have been a huge problem. But 1133 00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:24,319 Speaker 5: it looks like at least a few of them, if 1134 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 5: not most, are going to be back. And I think 1135 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:29,800 Speaker 5: that's the difference with this explosive USC offense that no 1136 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 5: one really can stop anything in Colorado Ucla. 1137 00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 4: I mean, we've been riding UCLA for a couple of 1138 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,000 Speaker 4: weeks now, but Dorian Thompson Robinson was upgraded to probable. 1139 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 4: I think if there's anything going on there, I'm going 1140 00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 4: to take an under. I think the number is projected 1141 00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 4: way too high over what I have right now. Ten points. 1142 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 4: I'm ten points more. 1143 00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 5: I'm going to look at Colorado. Their defensive been playing 1144 00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,680 Speaker 5: a little better. They can force some turnovers, and I 1145 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:53,280 Speaker 5: think that their receivers can have some success against UCLA. 1146 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:55,399 Speaker 5: Remember this is the UCLA team that we have been riding, 1147 00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:57,920 Speaker 5: but just you know, three weeks ago, go have shredded 1148 00:50:58,000 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 5: by Oregon. 1149 00:50:58,760 --> 00:50:59,480 Speaker 2: Stay at home, all. 1150 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 5: Right, let's move on to the SEC. We pretty much 1151 00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:03,840 Speaker 5: covered everything here Arkansas, Miss State. You have Auburn like 1152 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:08,880 Speaker 5: nineteen and a half at home against Old Miss Ama s. 1153 00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 2: SI. 1154 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:16,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, and South Carolina like fifteen at home against Vanderbilt. 1155 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,279 Speaker 2: Gross, I want no part of you. There anything there 1156 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:19,640 Speaker 2: and for you. 1157 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:22,719 Speaker 4: I think I actually might end up on Vanderbilt. I 1158 00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:24,759 Speaker 4: mean they're playing for their lives right now. I think 1159 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 4: Mason is playing for his job and the team is 1160 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:29,800 Speaker 4: playing you know, have everything to play for. In South Carolina, 1161 00:51:30,080 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 4: I mean there just comes a point in the season 1162 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 4: where you've played the number one strength of schedule. You 1163 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,920 Speaker 4: got screwed, completely screwed out of a win against Florida 1164 00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 4: with some of the worst SEC officiating that I've ever 1165 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 4: seen in my life, and the team just has not 1166 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 4: been the same since. But Vanderbilt is a team that 1167 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:47,080 Speaker 4: seems to be going, you know, at least motivated to 1168 00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 4: play and motivated to win. So Vanderbilt may be a 1169 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:52,879 Speaker 4: play if I can get it up to seventeen's kind 1170 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 4: of tweeting around and neutral land right now, you. 1171 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:55,840 Speaker 2: Know what I'm here for. 1172 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,120 Speaker 5: South Carolina final game of the year needs to win 1173 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 5: to go to a bowl against Clemson to also ruin, 1174 00:52:01,440 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 5: which should be to ruin their playoff hopes because one 1175 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:05,919 Speaker 5: loss cleanses be out. I don't think it's gonna happen, 1176 00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,080 Speaker 5: but would be interesting for that rivalry. All right, before 1177 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:10,840 Speaker 5: we go three and out, let's take a look at 1178 00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:11,520 Speaker 5: the Sun Belt. 1179 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,720 Speaker 4: Don't let the latest come between you and the Bilt. 1180 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 5: Troy Lane one at Coastal Carolina, Arkansas State Lank two 1181 00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 5: at Louisiana Monroe and ul my favorite team, LANK twenty 1182 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:26,839 Speaker 5: two at home against my least favorite team and your 1183 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 5: favorite team or ex favorite team, Texas State. 1184 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 2: Anything in the Belt for. 1185 00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,080 Speaker 4: You, Well, I mean with Texas State, they're twenty third 1186 00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,920 Speaker 4: in defending rush explosiveness, so that's highly important against a 1187 00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 4: team like ULL, So I would look for them to 1188 00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:38,960 Speaker 4: take that away from them and maybe kind of focus 1189 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:41,120 Speaker 4: on under whether they're back in Texas State, because they 1190 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 4: just can't seem to get out of their own way. 1191 00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 4: Troy is atrocious at defending the pass like they're I 1192 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 4: think worse in the nation. Right, everybody can pass against them. 1193 00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:51,839 Speaker 4: They can. They can have a good high success rate 1194 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 4: and be explosive. That's not Coastal Carolina's game. So it's 1195 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,319 Speaker 4: a game I'm completely staying away in the sun Belt. 1196 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 5: All right, before we go get out of here. Let's 1197 00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:01,399 Speaker 5: go three and out. 1198 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,839 Speaker 4: Let's make it a quick three and out first down. 1199 00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:08,319 Speaker 2: Let's talk about Friday night lights. 1200 00:53:08,719 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 4: Let's hear a gentlemen, clear eyes, full hearts. 1201 00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:13,520 Speaker 2: Let's go play some football. 1202 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 5: We only have one game on Friday, that's Navy Yukon. 1203 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:19,879 Speaker 5: We actually disagree on this game slightly. I probably won't 1204 00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 5: end up betting it, but the under intrigues me a 1205 00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:24,320 Speaker 5: little bit, just because I don't know how you Connell 1206 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 5: score everything. I look at this Navy defense, it's real, 1207 00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:30,759 Speaker 5: and then Navy will probably score at will. But the 1208 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:32,960 Speaker 5: clock at least will be running and maybe they come 1209 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,400 Speaker 5: out a little flat after you know, a bunch of 1210 00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:38,399 Speaker 5: really big wins in conference at the start, and maybe 1211 00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:40,320 Speaker 5: there's a fumble or you know, they settle for a 1212 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,399 Speaker 5: couple of field goals early. So I like the under 1213 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:46,799 Speaker 5: a little bit, but you know, I feel like I'm 1214 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 5: forcing it by playing it, Like I'm not forcing anything tonight. 1215 00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:51,920 Speaker 5: You know, if this game is on a Saturday, I 1216 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 5: just kick it to the curb. So it's probably what 1217 00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 5: I'll end up doing. But you liked the over here, Yeah, I. 1218 00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 4: Did like the over. I project over. I had fifty one, 1219 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 4: so you know, the fifty five kind of caught my 1220 00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 4: attention because it was off of the projection that I 1221 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 4: initially had. We all know what Navy can do. We're 1222 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:07,560 Speaker 4: pro Navy on the podcast. We know what they're doing 1223 00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,399 Speaker 4: in the trench on both sides of the ball. They've 1224 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,920 Speaker 4: been fantastic this year. Kind of an odd spot for them. 1225 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:13,319 Speaker 4: I'm not sure how much they're looking to go up 1226 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:15,360 Speaker 4: and play this game, especially on a Friday night, but 1227 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 4: you know, I know Navy is going to be able 1228 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,160 Speaker 4: to score. And the one thing that led me to 1229 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:21,480 Speaker 4: this over even though I projected at like fifty one. 1230 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 4: It's at fifty five. There's a couple things about this 1231 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 4: matchup in the red zone that I just could not 1232 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:30,439 Speaker 4: get over. What's you know, it's the stat will blow 1233 00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:33,800 Speaker 4: you away. Connecticut is one hundred and thirtieth in the 1234 00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 4: nation and red zone points per attempt. They are the 1235 00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:39,160 Speaker 4: worst team in the nation and allowing their opponents to 1236 00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:41,680 Speaker 4: score touchdowns down in the red zone. Do you know 1237 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 4: who the number one touchdown scoring team is in the 1238 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 4: nation in the red zone? Navy. Every time Navy gets 1239 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:50,359 Speaker 4: down opponent territory pass to forty. They have the best 1240 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,520 Speaker 4: chance in college football the number one versus number one 1241 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,239 Speaker 4: thirty team in scoring points. So I like the over 1242 00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:57,160 Speaker 4: for that reason. But then I turned around and I 1243 00:54:57,200 --> 00:55:00,120 Speaker 4: looked at said, well, Connecticut scored fifty six. Again it's 1244 00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:02,919 Speaker 4: I know it's U Mass's defense, but I mean they've 1245 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,520 Speaker 4: covered in other games. Look deeper into the numbers. They're 1246 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,320 Speaker 4: twelve in the nation rushing explosiveness, and that's something that 1247 00:55:08,320 --> 00:55:10,879 Speaker 4: you can take advantage of against Navy's defense. Now, they're 1248 00:55:10,880 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 4: excellent in the trench, but when a team has successful plays, 1249 00:55:13,800 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 4: Navy's kind of been mid of the pack so I 1250 00:55:15,480 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 4: expect Connecticut to bust at least one touchdown run maybe two. 1251 00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 4: And every time Navy gets the ball in New con Territory, 1252 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:23,840 Speaker 4: I expect a touchdown every single time. I mean, this 1253 00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,440 Speaker 4: is number one versus number one thirty. So I like 1254 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:27,239 Speaker 4: the over in this game. 1255 00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 5: By the way, we didn't mention. I don't think we 1256 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,359 Speaker 5: mentioned the MAC. I hate the break it to you guys, 1257 00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:34,560 Speaker 5: but Cato Nelson playing for Akron, and I think I 1258 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:37,319 Speaker 5: have to play Accord plus six. Shoot me, yeah, Bowling 1259 00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,359 Speaker 5: gree should not be a six point there. That game 1260 00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 5: should be It's a coin flip, so it should be 1261 00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,600 Speaker 5: Bowling Green minus three at home. All right, let's go 1262 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,560 Speaker 5: to second down here and talk about our favorite overdog. 1263 00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 5: For those not familiar, that's our favorite favorite making fun 1264 00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:53,160 Speaker 5: of a caller that called in and said that overdogs 1265 00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:54,760 Speaker 5: we're the opposite of underdogs. 1266 00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:56,880 Speaker 4: It's called the overdog, Parlay. 1267 00:55:56,920 --> 00:55:57,839 Speaker 2: Coyle, How are you going with here? 1268 00:55:58,040 --> 00:55:59,960 Speaker 4: Air Force? I'm gonna put my money where I'm out. 1269 00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:01,600 Speaker 4: Is not only am I betting air Force. I think 1270 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:02,879 Speaker 4: they're going to be the biggest win of the week, 1271 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:03,799 Speaker 4: and I. 1272 00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:04,880 Speaker 2: Am going with. 1273 00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 5: I keep seeing people now saying this is too many points. 1274 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:14,080 Speaker 5: This is too many points for Liberty to be giving 1275 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:18,360 Speaker 5: on the road after losing the Rutgers people UMass stinks 1276 00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 5: they might be the worst team in college football history. 1277 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 5: This team, they just gave up sixty to Yukon at home. 1278 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:30,600 Speaker 5: I mean, just fade this team. I'm done worrying about 1279 00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:32,800 Speaker 5: all right, what's the number? What's their I don't know 1280 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:34,919 Speaker 5: what the number is. Just just take the take whatever 1281 00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:36,759 Speaker 5: number you come up with. A add three touchdowns and 1282 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 5: that's the real number. Just after seeing that effort against you, 1283 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:43,480 Speaker 5: losing fifty six thirty five at home to Yukon, give 1284 00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:45,839 Speaker 5: me Liberty first half in game there worse than Yukon 1285 00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:47,640 Speaker 5: last year. It's I think it's the worst team I've 1286 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 5: ever seen. All right, before we get out of here, 1287 00:56:49,360 --> 00:56:50,120 Speaker 5: third down. 1288 00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:57,920 Speaker 1: Turning good weekends into great weekends, It's time for the 1289 00:56:58,160 --> 00:56:59,880 Speaker 1: money line, parlay. 1290 00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:01,680 Speaker 2: Underdog, money line park life. 1291 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:04,160 Speaker 4: You going, tom I'm gonna go to Charlotte plus one forty. 1292 00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:06,040 Speaker 4: Everything that I said before, I think their offense can 1293 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:07,040 Speaker 4: be able to do whatever they want. 1294 00:57:07,400 --> 00:57:10,520 Speaker 5: Thinking about this up until the last second, and you're 1295 00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:12,440 Speaker 5: gonna have Charlotte one TV, and you're gonna have your 1296 00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:13,360 Speaker 5: hogs on the other. 1297 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,120 Speaker 4: Our Oh my god, you can't do this, you can't 1298 00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 4: go there, are you really doing this?
