Today's episode the usual rundown games of the week, 16 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: Power mid major level favorite favorites, live Dogs. We'll take 17 00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: out the trash to close it out, and we've been 18 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: pretty money at taking out the trash in terms of 19 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: identifying good under trash picks, so we'll try and keep 20 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: that trend going. But first falls, let's r off with 21 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 1: the big games on Monday and especially Tuesday. But I 22 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,199 Speaker 1: think Monday has sort of the headliner of the week 23 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: here with Arizona going to Kansas the undercar. I think 24 00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: Monday is going to be NC State at Louisville the 25 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: Tuesday A lot of action but a per Kem Pomps 26 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: thrill score Purdue It in Nebraska feels like the biggest 27 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 1: bout there. Indy at Auburn. A few others we could 28 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: talk about. You guys have any strong takes, but I 29 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 1: will save Holster some which I think are good spots 30 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,199 Speaker 1: and good money line live dogs, and maybe a couple 31 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 1: of good favorites in there. But first, let's sart off 32 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: with Arizona. Ku Jim, what's your breakdown of this game here? 33 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 1: Kay uses interior defense against Arizona's basically juggernot of a 34 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: team with almost zero weaknesses at this point. 35 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, Arizona's ridiculous. Was sitting with a friend on Saturday 36 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 2: watching a little bit of the Arizona Oklahoma State game 37 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 2: or like man nineteen and a half, that's the spread 38 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: okome of States and tournament team right now, and they're 39 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 2: up eighteen and a half, They're up thirty five minutes 40 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: into the second half, Like the team is just a 41 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: complete animal. Now you've got the fog here that is 42 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 2: also a major factor. Fog is a tough place to play. 43 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 2: I think Evan Miya has joked Amyakawa on Twitter's joked 44 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 2: like that the number one team in the country is 45 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 2: fog Allen. That's got to be a challenge here for Arizona. 46 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 2: It feels a lot like was it a couple mondays 47 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,919 Speaker 2: back when Arizona went to BYU Kai and it's this 48 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 2: home run spot for a great home team at elevation 49 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 2: for BYU? Can they take down the Wildcats? And Arizona 50 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 2: got up like fifteen in that game ended up having 51 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 2: to hang on late. I think they were only up 52 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 2: one bi to the ball with the chance to win. 53 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 2: But I just think the interior, even for Kansas with 54 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: Badunga and Tiller, is gonna be a little bit too 55 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,360 Speaker 2: much to overcome. It's gonna have to be a home 56 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:54,119 Speaker 2: run game from Darren Peterson, and I just think Arizona's 57 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: got a bunch of length athletics guards to throw at him. 58 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 2: You can get a little more physical with Karchenkov every 59 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 2: once in a while, rough them up some Bradley's quick 60 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 2: Berry's's got size. I think there's enough to bug Peterson 61 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 2: and I'm just not really getting in front of Arizona 62 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 2: Right now, I think Arizona finds a way here. Maybe 63 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 2: it's not the runaway that the BYU game was at first, 64 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 2: and this disappoints KAYU fans with Kai like Arizona. 65 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's boy, they're good. I like to take these 66 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 3: games and think, Wow, I have an opportunity to bet 67 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 3: Arizona at a really short price or as a heck, 68 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 3: maybe they end up a dog at Kansas if the 69 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 3: market goes that way. And that's tempting because his team 70 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 3: might just be as dominant as that Yukon team that 71 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 3: won the title a couple of years ago that just 72 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 3: looked unstoppable from start to finish. I do think if 73 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 3: Zona's gonna drop a game, it's gonna be here, or 74 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 3: it's gonna be at Houston later on. This month, Kay's 75 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 3: been impressive too, They've won seventh straight. I think they're 76 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 3: interior defense can at least stand up to Arizona. Matt 77 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 3: mentioned it right off the top, at least slow them down. 78 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 3: And of course you have the best player on the 79 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 3: floor in Peterson as good as Arizona as Peterson is 80 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 3: the best offensive player in this game, and I think 81 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 3: the handlers might let him play thirty thirty five minutes. Matt, 82 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: I think they might. So I actually think Ku takes this. 83 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 3: One plus three would be great to get in the fog. 84 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what. 85 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: I don't know what the actual number is going to 86 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 1: be here. I'm still recording a little earlier to comminate 87 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: Super Bowl festivities. No official. Oh, I see a plus 88 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 1: two for Kansas. 89 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 3: That's probably my limit. If I was gonna go on, 90 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 3: KU wouldn't probably recommend lower than plus two. 91 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: I agree, I think it's I think anything lower you're 92 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: you're just to Jump's point, there's no reason to force 93 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: to pay a tax to bet against Arizona as good 94 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: as they've been as birstals, they've been, as proven as 95 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: they've been on all over the country. 96 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, we state fand will have Arizona juiced one and 97 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 2: a half, like gotta pay you one it's one sixteen, 98 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 2: when it's one eighteen, and then only one and a 99 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 2: half for Ku. Yeah, I just I want a little 100 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: bit more if I'm going against the top team in 101 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 2: the country. 102 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: There, Yeah, I want like three or more to like 103 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: feel like the ooh bill self home Dog, to like 104 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: if that angles, if you're that kind of thing acc 105 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: NC State at Louisville very fast sating handicap here talked 106 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: about how Louisville has been kind of a bimodal team 107 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: and competition not so we're NC State falls on that spectrum, right, 108 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: Are they in the Duke UNC Virginia tier or are 109 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: they more in the middle of mushy tier. Obviously been 110 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: playing better as of late, but we know they've been 111 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 1: inconsistent and unreliable. I think it's a good live betting 112 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: game if you're like, actually like that in this game 113 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: watching kai. I don't know if I have a pregame 114 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: opinion on this sidewise, if it's around minus five, I 115 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: would wager it might be a little bit lower than that, 116 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 1: like four. Actually, just I think the market has a 117 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: pretty high opinion of NC State, given the kind of 118 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: they feel like a by low for some in some respects. 119 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 3: Kind of similar ish profile teams in terms of like 120 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 3: resume wise, neither team is beaten the top or well, okay, 121 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 3: NC State's beaten one top thirty team in kempom, Louisvill's 122 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 3: beaten zero, so they don't have like Marquis Markie wins. 123 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,600 Speaker 3: Both obviously very good teams both run, both shoot a 124 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 3: lot of threes. Both are really well coached at Wade 125 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 3: and Kelsey obviously very good coaches. NC State has looked 126 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 3: very good lately. We've talked a couple of times about 127 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 3: how they're feeling themselves. Recently six wins in a row. 128 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 3: Nothing just needs at Their shooting is also just crazy, 129 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 3: So louis will shoot the most threes in the country. 130 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 3: NC State actually makes them six best three part percentage 131 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 3: of the country, number one in the ACC. I think 132 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 3: it's pretty real, But I do think this is a 133 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 3: game that Louisville can't extend in given the possessions we're 134 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 3: bound to see. I think we can get mid seventies 135 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 3: up here. I think a transition is going to be 136 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 3: hot and heavy. Islank towards the Cardinals gym minus five 137 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 3: is probably my limit on that one. That's kind of 138 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 3: the Kim Palm line, but ilean their way. 139 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 2: Yeah. I've been kind of on NC State and OFFENSEY 140 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,719 Speaker 2: State recently. I backed them last Monday at SMU and 141 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 2: per what I'm looking at for team rankings that came 142 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 2: close pick I got like minus one and a half 143 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,480 Speaker 2: and lost, So I you know, line value matters. Folks, 144 00:06:58,520 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 2: make sure you get the right one or do the 145 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 2: best you can to do so. But then on Saturday 146 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 2: I back Virginia Tech because I thought cocky NC State 147 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 2: would take it off the gas a little bit and 148 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 2: kind of got lucky for Virginia Tech to sneak in 149 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 2: the back door and cover nine and a half ten. 150 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 2: This says it closed nine. So looking actually at team 151 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 2: rankings closing lines, NC State is five to zho and 152 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 2: one against the spread their last six. Yeah, I thin 153 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: they're playing very well. My concern here is their perimeter 154 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 2: defense can be awful, and SMUs sort of lit them 155 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 2: up from deep. They gave up. They give up threes 156 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: at bottom twenty five eight in the entire country. Now 157 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: you're playing Louisville, who just wants to get them up. Now, 158 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 2: part of that maybe helps NC State because they're intior 159 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 2: defense is not very good. They don't have a ton 160 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 2: of size shot blocking around the rim, so they're just 161 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 2: forcing you to beat them with jumpers. But Louisville's is 162 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: going to be happy to do that. And I think 163 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 2: this is one where Louisville's kind of impressive two way 164 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 2: dominance inside the top ten nationally in both two point 165 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: percentage offense and defense, helped by their two point attempt distance, 166 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 2: which is really good on both ends. Two. I think 167 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 2: they forced their way to the rim, get some easy 168 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 2: ones against in NC State. That loosens things up. They 169 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: start knocking down threes. It's not it would be the 170 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 2: biggest Louisville win of the season so far this year. 171 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 2: I guess Kentucky's aging well too, but I lean towards 172 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: Louisville like. 173 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: Kai, Yeah, I think both team. I mean, Louisville's probably 174 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: what a six to seven SEA. I mean, they're not 175 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: all the way safe, but they're safe fish. But this 176 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 1: is kind of, I think, a pretty huge game for 177 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: teams that are, you know, a league where don't have 178 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: a ton of big one opportunities. You got to take 179 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: care of business when you got the chances. N C 180 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: State probably needs a little bit more of note or 181 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: NC State is five and two against the spread on 182 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: the road this year. They've been a pretty good road team. 183 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,960 Speaker 1: They've traveled pretty well, which kind of makes sense with 184 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: sort of the will wait and how they're arrogance. They 185 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:44,960 Speaker 1: like to kind of go in and silence the crowd 186 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,319 Speaker 1: of opposing team. I think they kind of play with 187 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: a little bit so well, they have some adults on 188 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,719 Speaker 1: that team, guys who've been around for five, six, seven years, 189 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: who've played in every hostile environment you can think of. 190 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 2: Colplan's been amazing. It's probably been amazing. Yeah, they've last 191 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 2: five games tennisiss sixteen assists, Ninus ninusus like he has 192 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 2: been mega table setter and obviously having the shooting that 193 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 2: kind mentioned helps because they knocked out every jump verst. 194 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:09,360 Speaker 2: All he has to do is set them up then 195 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: the shots going. 196 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 1: It's funny. They're fourteen to nine against the spread on 197 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: the year. Feels like they've like underachieved, but they've they 198 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: get a lot of close covers in their cover margin, 199 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: not like crazy, but they've you know, lil Wade has 200 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: been a plus EV portfolio this season. All right, let's 201 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: go to Tuesday. Let's leave with Purdue at Nebraski. Guy, 202 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: great matchup here, battle of Biggs and I guess solid 203 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: skilled guards. I wouldn't say either team is crazy athletic. 204 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 1: It just feel like kind of a high variance game, 205 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: right like Purdue's recent struggles to put it lightly, you know, 206 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: does this feel like you're getting a by low on 207 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,280 Speaker 1: Purdue here or is this just a weird match but 208 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: the wind Debraskan kind of space you out there with 209 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: their inverted big approach and rink mast Yeah. 210 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 3: The first question I asked was when's last good game 211 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 3: Produce played. They beat their Maryland, so that's probably the answer, 212 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 3: which is recent. But other than that, like they're one 213 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 3: and eight against the spread in their last nine games, 214 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 3: it has not been good. And Nebraska, while they finally 215 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 3: showed they were mortal by losing games, they had Michigan 216 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 3: on the ropes and they let Illinois in the second half. 217 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 3: I think this team is super legit still, and I 218 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 3: kind of think Purdue's in trouble in this game. Jim, 219 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 3: I think the Huskers are in much better form. I 220 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 3: think masten Burke can kind of stand up to the 221 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 3: Perdue front line at least somewhat, and the team just clicks. 222 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 3: They're so well connected. Sam Hoiberg is a very underrated player. 223 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 3: I'm not a big Nepo baby guy, so I don't 224 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 3: love the coaches something, but he really does play hard 225 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 3: and he makes a lot of stuff happen out there. 226 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 3: I lean Nebraska in this one. Kim Palm's got it 227 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 3: minus two. 228 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I kind of went starting to handicap this game, 229 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 2: thinking I'd end up on Purdue like a little bit 230 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 2: more by low, and as I look at some of 231 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 2: the matchup stuff, I don't really think so. I think 232 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 2: Perdue has struggled badly against bigs that can shoot like 233 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: Oregon stuck with them. Illinois hit them the heck up offensively. 234 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 2: Billodeou hit four threes for UCLA. Their bigs don't want 235 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 2: to be out on the perimeter, and Rick Masts can 236 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 2: light it up. He's had some games this year where 237 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 2: he's made like five plus threes. He's going to fire away. 238 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 2: They space it so well that opens things up for cuts. 239 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 2: And they've got some bigger wings like Frager. I think 240 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 2: is gonna be a problem off the bounce. Lawrence even 241 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 2: is kind of a physical driver, and that has really 242 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 2: given major problems to Purdue because they don't have wing size, 243 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: they don't have athleticism that can guard that type of player. 244 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 2: And then Sanford has sneakily been like one of the 245 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 2: best shooters in the entire country, high volume, over forty percent, 246 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 2: perfect fit for this offense. I think Purdue really struggles 247 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 2: to get stops and we continue to wonder what's going 248 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 2: on with their defense. I mean, that Oregon effort at 249 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,680 Speaker 2: home was bad. I know Biddle returned, but still then 250 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 2: they they were desperate to escape from that game late. 251 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 2: So yeah, I lean Nebraska to Math. You're not something 252 00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:57,240 Speaker 2: I'm locking in, but I'm Huskers. 253 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. You gotta think what would that Rasca game with 254 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: against Michigan looked like with mast out there? And it's 255 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: almost beat him without him, but that would have been 256 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 1: a good matchup. Obviously he's a great player, but that 257 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,600 Speaker 1: sort of piece back against Purdue I think means a ton. 258 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 1: Do we have any take on Vandy Auburn? It just 259 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,199 Speaker 1: I feel like the Prudy Dabrasca game feels like it's 260 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 1: gonna be there's some volatility there, but Vandy Aubert feels 261 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:24,199 Speaker 1: like man who knows. Vandy's certainly had their recent skid issues, 262 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: and then Auburn. I still can't quite figure out I 263 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 1: was really selling this team hard. But they've been like 264 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,839 Speaker 1: a lot of sec middle mushie teams that there's been 265 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:33,360 Speaker 1: just some kind of good and bad with a lot 266 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: of these squads. Kem Pom has this like minus one 267 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 1: feels like Alabama off the ironble loss in the better spot, Jim, 268 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: But I don't know Vandy's off of tough loss to 269 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: you at home, which wasn't great either. 270 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, they played like garbage. They says they lost by one. Well, 271 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,760 Speaker 2: they were twenty one five minutes left. The almost erased 272 00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:53,199 Speaker 2: it and came all the way back, which would have 273 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 2: been crazy. But I can't mistake that for them having 274 00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 2: actually played well. Yeah, neither team really firing and cylinders 275 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 2: thought at Albata or excuse me, I thought Auburn would 276 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 2: be a very good by low, but their three point 277 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,839 Speaker 2: splits continue to be just brutal on both ends of 278 00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 2: the court and sec player there's some thirty percent on offense, 279 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 2: opponents are at almost forty percent. That scares me against Vandy, 280 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 2: who can really light it up. Tanner was brilliant down 281 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 2: the stretch against Oklahoma trying to get them back in 282 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 2: India thirty seven. Good lord, it's still good. Yeah, I 283 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 2: that one's I'm kind of staying away from it. I think 284 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: they're validough you mentioned live betting game earlier with NC 285 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 2: State SMU. I could see this one being fairly good 286 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 2: live betting two. Both teams like to play fast could 287 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 2: be a little bit of radic an outcome. 288 00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 3: It's very hard to picture Auburn losing two in a 289 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 3: row at the Jungle, but they've lost four games at 290 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 3: home this year. They're clearly vulnerable. 291 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: And lost five but then Cookman had them. 292 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good point, and I know who the 293 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,000 Speaker 3: better coaches no offense to see, even Pearl, But I'll 294 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 3: take Byington every single day of the week. And I 295 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 3: think vanderbild has some nice matchup options for Keisha on Hall. 296 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 3: Mcloughton I think is a great matchup for him. Murphy 297 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 3: worries me a little bit on Auburn's side against Vanderbilt. 298 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 3: They're just not a huge team. I kind of like 299 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 3: Vandy here lean their way at certainly a plus one 300 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 3: what kem pum has. 301 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: It's a big turnover battle of turnover forcing possession, tug 302 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,960 Speaker 1: of war. Both teams really excel at that on both ends. 303 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 3: And Bandy really good with the ball too. 304 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 305 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: Uh, let's talk mid majors. Monday. We have a couple 306 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: of Missouri Valley teams and Action. Actually, every team in Missouri 307 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: Valley is an Action on Monday, except for our Flames, 308 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 1: who did not get it done at home in the 309 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 1: biggest game in program history over the weekend, and you'd 310 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: see on went to at Charlestons is sinky awesome tilt. 311 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: I have a take in that game. And then there's 312 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 1: a bunch of swack in Southland games Tuesday. We'd a 313 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 1: lot bigger, a lot more half to with Mountain West 314 00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:49,520 Speaker 1: Action eight ten Action, Horizon Action, a couple which we 315 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: can touch on butt first, any take on any of 316 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: the Valley games, either of you Bellmut at Bradley, Northern 317 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 1: Iowa ed Murray or probably the two best games bellmanut 318 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: Bradley specifically Bellot's been a dump truck. Bradley has been 319 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 1: sort of inconsistent, but they're quietly sitting like right there 320 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: at the top of the leader board. It's been a 321 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: lot of middle to bad team merchant team. I would 322 00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: say Kai I kind of leaned Belmont in that one. 323 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: I was considering firing. But no official play for me 324 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: any of those Valley games. But I'm just not a 325 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 1: big Brawdley guy. 326 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 3: This year. 327 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: I think they're a little overvalued with some high margin 328 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: victories against bad teams in that league. 329 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, and Belmont Rocks they're full two games ahead of 330 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 3: the next team in the valley, and they're thirty spots 331 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 3: highering Keim Palm for the next best team. They're running 332 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 3: away with it. Game one on this in between these 333 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 3: two teams, it was close most of the way. Belmont 334 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 3: extended late. Both team shot very very well. I just 335 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 3: think Belmont's more consistent and Bradley's a really tough place 336 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 3: to play. But I can't go against the Bruins. Man. 337 00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 3: They're number one in the valley in both two and 338 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 3: three point percentage. Their offense is beautiful. Lund Blade is 339 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 3: a fireball from deep. Definitely lean their way at minus 340 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 3: four and the other one, Jim, I think Tristan Smith 341 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 3: is the key for Northern Iowa against Murray Back played 342 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 3: a little bit in their last game. You and I 343 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 3: actually beat Murray State without him. I don't think that 344 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 3: happens again. They got dominion the glass, they shot well, 345 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 3: and Murray shot like piss. So I leave Murray State 346 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 3: in that one pretty hard. In fact, I'm gonna take 347 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 3: Murray State in that game. 348 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. I watched that entire first game and that was 349 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 2: like my ultimate. Murray State can't guard anything without Tristan Smith. 350 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 2: They were just getting torched by Nordon and Iow, whose 351 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 2: offense is awful. It's ninth in the valley, it's two 352 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty seventh nationally. They play really slow, they 353 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 2: never score, and they racked up eighty points the very 354 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 2: efficient performance to one point two two at home. I 355 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 2: think Murray State does probably bounce back there. My concern 356 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 2: with Belmont and why I'm not going to bet them, 357 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: even though they've covered five and six and look like 358 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 2: a wagon, it's still no Nick McClain. Back and Jakwan 359 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 2: Johnson can like mess up your world. For Bradley, he's 360 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: one of the best on ball guys in the country. 361 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 2: Steal a rate fifth in the country. He's so quick 362 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 2: and get under you. And if Belmont can't really get 363 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 2: into some of their their stuff and they turn it 364 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 2: over a little bit, they're just not comfortable. Maybe the 365 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 2: offense doesn't look as smooth, but there's not a lot 366 00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 2: of reason to worry about them based on their recent results, 367 00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 2: having won nine in a row and ascended right back 368 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 2: to the top of the valley by multiple games. So 369 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 2: the one I like most there is probably Murray State. 370 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 2: Even with Tristan Smith. Maybe Back is kind of he 371 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: played eight minutes and did nothing, so it's like barely 372 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 2: counts that he returned. 373 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: It is crazy in the Valley Drake, who I think 374 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,879 Speaker 1: is becoming more respectable, in SIU, who is better than 375 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: the record, obviously in Valpo being kind of feisty. It's 376 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,960 Speaker 1: like nine really good teams in that league that could 377 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 1: probably win the tournament. I mean, obviously, if you're in 378 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 1: that back draw, it's tough, but Indiana State and Evansville 379 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: are not like the others. All right, let's talk you 380 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:40,680 Speaker 1: and you went to at Charleston. This is official bet 381 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 1: for me. I love Charleston updated. Let's see, is there 382 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: a number out? Ooh, I like minus one. I might 383 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: be betting that live on the show. Sorry, folks if 384 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: it's minus street when you hear this tomorrow. This team, 385 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: as we kind of thought would be the upside was 386 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: always there. I had a lot of injuries, had the 387 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: weird Don con thing where Mac part of Way is 388 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 1: one of his assistance. There's some frustration, but now you've 389 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,399 Speaker 1: kind of got the emergence in parallel with chol and 390 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 1: Reeves like the two most dominant interior players in the league, 391 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 1: except for maybe Pat Westler, who will be neutralized I 392 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: think by one or both of them. And they got 393 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: Dugan back, which has been kind of a key catalyst defensively, 394 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: and they're gonna need him to sli one of those 395 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 1: good wings that Wilmington has. So I just think the 396 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: matchup's really good here. Willington's coming off that loss at 397 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:27,160 Speaker 1: home at Trask, which is a rarity. You could argue 398 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 1: it's a good spot. I just I'm not. I'm not 399 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,239 Speaker 1: buying into that. I just think Charleston is the more 400 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: talented team here and their their mojo is ascending up 401 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: por quickly. So best bet for me, they're kay any take. 402 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:37,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 403 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 3: I like Charleston too. To your point about them being 404 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 3: hot five straight covers, nine and three against the spread 405 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 3: the last twelve, you guy, shooting your rush on your side. 406 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 3: They're due for better shooting in the league and Wilmington. 407 00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 3: No one can make a three against them. Their defense 408 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 3: is very good, but they they allow a high rate 409 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 3: of threes and Charleston doesn't fall and that's really a 410 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 3: key against the Wilmington team that gets slimed better than 411 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 3: any team in the in the Coast. So I like 412 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 3: Charleston two, Matt, and I'm adding it as an official 413 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 3: play minus one sounds pretty good to me. 414 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 2: Across the board. Make it three. I'm in on Charleston 415 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 2: as well. I've got some futures on the UNC Wilmington 416 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 2: to win this conference, and the home loss to William 417 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 2: and Mary that I watched most of the second half 418 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 2: was alarming, and they could not get stops. UNC Wilmington 419 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 2: made eleven threes forty six percent from three. Okay, William 420 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 2: and Mary also did the same thing eleven threes right 421 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 2: up there, but the defense didn't look that sharp to me. 422 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 2: The interior defense especially hasn't been good in league play. 423 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 2: Westler's a great finisher, like double double machine inside, but 424 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 2: he's not like an intimidator at the rim, not a 425 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 2: vertical presence, whereas as Matt mentioned, Charleston's got multiple of those. 426 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 2: And they've kind of come together. They lost mister Dean 427 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 2: to the ACL tair early and Hickman was is he 428 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 2: going to play or not? They are kind of coalescing 429 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 2: into the team that people saw in the preseason. The 430 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 2: talent on the roster. They have definitely the most expensive 431 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 2: roster in the league, and Wilmington hasn't gotten some guys healthy, 432 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 2: like CJ. Wester is going to miss the whole year. 433 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,719 Speaker 2: Gavin Walsh has been out a great rebound under So 434 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 2: I think Charleston's like a better version of themselves right 435 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 2: now than Willington is. And yeah, at home, very very 436 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 2: high stakes in this league. It's basically for conference lead 437 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 2: and the edge to win the title. I like Charleston 438 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 2: as well. 439 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna suggest Charleston to win the league futures. 440 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: I think a couple books have those out there still available, 441 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: but they do have a tough schedule come down the stretch. 442 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,479 Speaker 1: I think the check the updated sim I think they 443 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: have to go back to Trask obviously, which is a 444 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: tough place to play, up to go to NCA and 445 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: t which is a weird tough place to play. Campbell's 446 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 1: been red hot. I like my roll hump Campbells right 447 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: now too. But that's a team on a mission. So yeah, Charleston, 448 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 1: clean sweep. Let's put it to Tuesday. I don't have 449 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: anything officially here. I did want to mention one that 450 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: I looked at, and we'll talk up this later potentially 451 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 1: as San Jose. Actually I'll just hold sex. I think 452 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: I will have official money line play on San Jose 453 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: and plant UNILVI who will go through is maybe the 454 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: biggest variance monster in the entire country. But anything on 455 00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: Tuesdays stand out to you, guys from the Horizon or 456 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: the A ten Saint Joe hosting Fordham IU Indie hosting Milwaukee, 457 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: a couple that I looked at. Just Milwaukee seems to 458 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 1: be playing better with fields back, but I had nothing officials, 459 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: so I want to belabor stuff that I don't have 460 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:11,920 Speaker 1: action on. 461 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 3: I gotta get it, Matthew. 462 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 2: I get to fade Air Force with the top one 463 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 2: hundred team. I'm gonna do that. 464 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 3: That's a good point. 465 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 2: Colorado State, mine's thirteen at air Force team. That's not 466 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 2: gonna be impacted at all by elevation. Air Force just 467 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 2: lost by thirty four again to San Diego State. I 468 00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 2: know we got burned with Grand Canyon on this show 469 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 2: last week Backdoor Bowl crap by air Force to cover 470 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: like the final number with LA that's not gonna It's 471 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 2: not gonna keep me off it again. I just think 472 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 2: that team is a total zombie. Sorry the air Troops, 473 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 2: but they're bad and Colorado State can be very erradic 474 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 2: because they take a lot of threes. They give up 475 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 2: a lot of threes, but they can shoot the lights 476 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 2: out and if air Force tries to zone them at all, like, 477 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 2: good luck, so will I will take Colorado State. There. 478 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,479 Speaker 2: It's thirteen right now at Ken Palm, I'd lay up 479 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 2: to fifteen. 480 00:21:58,119 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 3: That's pretty short. 481 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, they dominated for the first game, and that's the game. 482 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: I think they got twenty nine Jordansen back, which is 483 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: a huge boost. I just feel like they're not super athletic, 484 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 1: but they did clearly. I mean they controlled that game 485 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:17,120 Speaker 1: the first time. So yeah, I'll all right, maybe Jim, 486 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: all right, we're going to live dogs last uh toughly 487 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: last week for our recommendations, U I see South Carolina 488 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: and Valpo. 489 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:41,959 Speaker 2: Freaking Elijah Crawford man him like the second minute for us. 490 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 2: See that really all. 491 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: But still big game team. Need you don't get ejected 492 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: after that. 493 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 2: Whole handicap is this guy's been back, he's been awesome, 494 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 2: and then he's booted from the game immediately. 495 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: Uh I got well, I guess sorry, I got two 496 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: This week Organ at Indiana we mentioned Organ and how 497 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: unimpressed for the Purdue. But Biddle's back, and I think 498 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: this is a good value. I'm curious what the line 499 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: is going to open here on Monday Oregon at IU. Well, 500 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: let's see, let's show. Yeah, it is opens eleven, so 501 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: right on. I think Orgon money is coming hard because 502 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: of the Bill return, and I think the perceived matchup 503 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: that he's a mismatch for IU's front line. Although Sam 504 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: Alex is coming off his best game of the year. 505 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: I don't think Sam Lexis can guarden a Biddle, though. 506 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: I think I will have to very clearly scheme around Biddle, 507 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 1: as any coach who's smart should given what Organ's limitations 508 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 1: are this year. But Dana Altman what he just kind 509 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: of proved in MACKI the quick trip down to Bloomington, 510 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 1: that's a look for me. I don't I didn't officially 511 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: pull it, but I wanted to bring it up. And 512 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: then also Howard versus Yale. These two teams have played 513 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 1: every year last four or five four years. The two 514 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: that have been at Howard, they've been very close. The 515 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,880 Speaker 1: two at Yale have been complete runaways. So this one 516 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: at Howard, Nation's Capital. We've always talk about some of 517 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 1: these miax swhack teams getting rare home game against cool teams. 518 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: Just the thoughts fellas for your Monday to what your beaks. 519 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm intrigued by Geword for sure. Like I before 520 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 2: I even saw you put it in the outline, I 521 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 2: was like, Oh, that's a weird spot. Yale's like in 522 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 2: a real dogfight in the ivy. It's not like they've 523 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 2: pulled away the way we thought they would. So that 524 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 2: like one off game going down to DC and playing 525 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 2: at a mex school that should have a very good atmosphere, 526 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 2: like Howard fills that arena. I definitely think that's why 527 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 2: I I probably won't go money line, but very very 528 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 2: interested in the plus nine. The other one. It's not 529 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 2: one of the ones that you brought up, and we 530 00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:36,080 Speaker 2: did kind of like gloss over the eight ten before. 531 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 2: But GW without Raphael Castro has been No Bueno and 532 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 2: Rhode Island well not a team I love is erratic 533 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 2: enough to go in and win there. They won at Dayton, 534 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,719 Speaker 2: they won at Richmond, they won at Davidson. They've actually 535 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,679 Speaker 2: traveled reasonably well. And I don't know if Castro's going 536 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 2: to return. It's a Tuesday game, so this is something 537 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 2: to monitor for people, and I'm not going to lock 538 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 2: it in officially because of that. But if he's out 539 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 2: and you're getting like five five and money line somewhere 540 00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:03,920 Speaker 2: like plus two twenty, I don't know exactly what that 541 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 2: would be. That's more of the. 542 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 1: Converter than That's not gonna have my table up here. 543 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 2: But I think Rhode Islands at least worth looking at there. 544 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 2: If Castro is out in matt I'm going to Oregon. 545 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, your first one plus eleven, though I'm gonna take 546 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 3: the spread. They've lost nine straight. They're clearly bad, but 547 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 3: they're obviously way better against PURDUEY because Bill's huge on 548 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,760 Speaker 3: both sides and see the analytics will tell you that 549 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,320 Speaker 3: as well. They need him to play good offense. They're 550 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 3: the worst offensive team in Big Ten play mostly because 551 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:35,359 Speaker 3: he and Shell said of an out, but they can 552 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 3: play through him in the post. I think he dominates 553 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 3: Indiana's front line. He had twenty three against Produced, so 554 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 3: I think he's gonna do just fining against Indiana's and 555 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 3: even he hit like one for eight from three in 556 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 3: that game too. I think he really bounces back from 557 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,919 Speaker 3: from distance against the Hoosiers. I think they keep this 558 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 3: one close. I think they maybe have a little bit 559 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 3: of confidence coming into this game. They have nothing to lose. 560 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,440 Speaker 3: They can make the tournament unless they go on a 561 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 3: miraculous run in the Big ten tournament and win it. 562 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 3: I think I like them getting doubles here short travel 563 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 3: as well as you mentioned. 564 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's you guys are kind of warming me 565 00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,239 Speaker 2: up to it too, Like, why is this eleven when 566 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,199 Speaker 2: ken Pom has it eleven and Biddle was out for 567 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,440 Speaker 2: like five games and they got alacked and tumbled. Analytically, 568 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,400 Speaker 2: I don't think it should be eleven. It probably won't 569 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 2: close eleven considering where it's sitting right now. But yeah, 570 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 2: Indiana's off overtime controversial, actually ended up thinking it was 571 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 2: the right call against Wisconsin was kind of a trip, yeah, 572 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 2: based on the stepping on of the foot for Wilkerson. 573 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:29,360 Speaker 2: But yeah, eleven points with Biddle in there, I think 574 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 2: that's too many. 575 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: Should be about five to one roughly. I wouldn't say 576 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 1: anything below four to one, and I think you're basically 577 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: paying like a plus eight tax. But again, if it 578 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: closes plus a, you actually that's pretty decent value, or 579 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 1: at least it's closer to fair value. All right, Tuesday 580 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 1: idea of a fishal I'm gonna take San Jose, but 581 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: first I want to bring up Wisconson Illinois and no opinion, 582 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 1: you guys thought this was intriguing. Wisconsin was the you know, 583 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 1: the way they can kind of spread and shredgion that 584 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: they can shoot from the perimeter. They kind of use 585 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: that formula. It's Michigan Illinois obviously. I mean their games 586 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 1: are they are more high variants with the amount of 587 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: threes that they take and allow and drop coverage that 588 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: the matchup was consin Michigan. Wisconsin Illinois is not identical, 589 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 1: but there are similar parallels where I think Wisconsin could 590 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 1: play well and maybe shock Illinois here. Again, line should 591 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: be close to a dozen. I think worth a worth 592 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:21,160 Speaker 1: of thought. 593 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 3: That's all. 594 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 1: I'm saying nothing if there's therefore, but. 595 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I will not be fading. Illinois is so good 596 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:27,920 Speaker 3: a loss. 597 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 2: I don't imagine Keaton Walger is going to take a 598 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 2: second straight poop on the floor. He was horrible at 599 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,320 Speaker 2: Michigan State for eight Inside the inside the. 600 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 1: Art, Yeah, you know, I wonder for wow, the. 601 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 2: Athleticism stuff Kyle we talked about we did on our 602 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 2: Saturday show, Like he gets into the lane against Michigan 603 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 2: State and just got swatted like he clearly couldn't elevate, 604 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 2: And yeah, makes sense, there's a problem there. Yeah, Wisconsin 605 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 2: doesn't have that kind of athleticism, so I think he 606 00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:55,600 Speaker 2: has a big game here. 607 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I wonder if NBA scouts are putting an asterisk 608 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 1: next to the game, given what produced defense can can 609 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 1: make players look like, all right, I'm gonna fire on 610 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: San Jose and I'm trying to find out the stats 611 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: for Jermaine Washington, who was back out again. The problem 612 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 1: with San Jose is you don't know who's playing. Ever, 613 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: the Kolby Garland was back and univ has I was 614 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: trying to run the number they've been they believe the 615 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: most in one of the most inconsistent teams in college 616 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 1: basketball for a lot of obvious reasons. They had a 617 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 1: huge win at home over Grant Canyon. I feel like 618 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:28,360 Speaker 1: this is such an obvious letdown spot against the Spartans 619 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,919 Speaker 1: and Tim Miles sort of engineering of a sharp shooting 620 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 1: fifteen to thirty type of performance, and they got some 621 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: guys who can shoot, and you know, v sometimes we'll 622 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: we'll let you get open and lose dudes, and and 623 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 1: that Monster's front line that hasn't edge normally. I sometimes 624 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 1: they just don't weaponize it. So I like San Jose, 625 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 1: They're kay, that's how my card. I'm gonna circle it. 626 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: I just think it's gonna be a good value. I'm 627 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: curious what this line opens at. 628 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, lean your way, Matthew. I have nothing to add 629 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 3: in that game. 630 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 2: Just a couple quick thoughts for you. Met Tyron Jones 631 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 2: miss last game for he's. 632 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,520 Speaker 1: He should be back this game. I fail. It seems 633 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 1: like he was really close, So yeah, that doesn't that 634 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 1: is important. 635 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 2: But to your point of erratic, maybe potential letdown. Grand 636 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 2: Canyon had like a much multiple busses of like five 637 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 2: hundred students drove up from Phoenix to Vegas and passing 638 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 2: some quotes after the games look good, that's money in 639 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:19,120 Speaker 2: our pocket, and like helped the atmosphere. You're not gonna 640 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: have any Santa Say State fans, trand like traveling for 641 00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 2: this it's going to be a dead Thomas and Maxtime center. 642 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: Let's go to favorite favorites, and last week we talked 643 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: about a few that were kind of hover. I mean 644 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: Grand Canyon. We don't need to talk about that up 645 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: thirty a half and got ten to run. I think 646 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: the last four minutes against Air Force Saneo State did 647 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: not cover and Bella was right on the number. But yeah, 648 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: there's been a few of these where there's you know, 649 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: there's been a little bit of favorite fatigue at the 650 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: end of these games. We're in the non kind of 651 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: you tended just to see a favorite runaway with FOK, 652 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 1: so I had nothing on my card. I know you 653 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 1: guys like south Land Action more than I do. You're 654 00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: both Team Jack's SFA hosting East Texas A and m 655 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 1: that's on Monday. That was the one that kind of 656 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:03,760 Speaker 1: stuck out to me, And then I got Houston in 657 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 1: Utah on my potential watch was for Tuesday, back to 658 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 1: back games at Altitude for Houston after their big one 659 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 1: at BYU. I think they are the first team this 660 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: year to do the back to back road trip, So 661 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: that's kind of noteworthy, maybe concerning, but also maybe why 662 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: you get good value against a Utah team that I 663 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: think is kind of a zombie team. Any interest in 664 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 1: the other these two or any other big favorite shots 665 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: you're looking to better, be a bully better, Yeah. 666 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 3: I SFA. Yeah, they rock their best team in the 667 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 3: South Lands. Surprisingly, they have that buffer game in between 668 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,880 Speaker 3: the McNeese emotional win. They beat Lamar by ten, which 669 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 3: is right on the number of what it was in 670 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 3: the market. Game one was not close against sex A 671 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 3: and M. They won by twenty seven and I didn't 672 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,920 Speaker 3: see anything in that game that it's not repeatable. They 673 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 3: scored easily, they won the turnover battle, the glass battle. 674 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 3: They're way more talented team. They're at home, so I'll 675 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 3: be on SFA as a favorite faite. 676 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:04,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, intrigued by Houston, Matt. I don't think I'm going 677 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 2: to do it because the spot, the double altitude and 678 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 2: beating BYU is a rather large win for them. And 679 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,400 Speaker 2: this is a different Utah team than last year, but 680 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 2: Houston beat them at home seventy to thirty six. Last 681 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 2: year just eviscerated Utah, and Utah is pretty weak in 682 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 2: the paint. This year they're small. It's DAWs and that's 683 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,479 Speaker 2: kind of it. Oh Concho battles on the offensive end, 684 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 2: but Houston could eat on the offensive glass. I mean 685 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 2: they destroyed BYU's interior. I grabbed thirty seven percent of 686 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 2: their misses. I think Houston physicality and just overall talent 687 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 2: in the backcourt gives them a pretty strong chance to 688 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 2: do it in that, but I think the angle is 689 00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: scary enough to stay away. 690 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: The other thing here, there's no travel really, right, I 691 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: mean there is, but it's not like you're not like 692 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: the Utah at Colorado where you actually have to, you know, 693 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 1: board a plane and fly and play a second game 694 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: in altitude. You're not used to it. Let's go to 695 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 1: spots and I'll start with one that could have mentioned 696 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: in the Favorite Favorites, depending on you guys stand on 697 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 1: the matchup versus psychological tug of war, The Patino Battle 698 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: Part two, Saint John's Kai Monday tomorrow or today PHO 699 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: listens today. Excuse me laying fifteen and a half on 700 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: the opener. I kind of like Xavier weirdly here. Matchup wise, 701 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 1: we saw how they could expose Saint John's in the 702 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: first half, and Saint john sometimes has trouble like guarding 703 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: the ball. But when Saint John's styles up their pressure, 704 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 1: that's where they kind of flipped the script to get 705 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: that close win at Centas. Now you got Saint John's 706 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 1: off a huge win against Yukon and maybe Baby Patino 707 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: wants to kind of catch his dad off of fat 708 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: and happy win. I don't know Kai fifteen and a half. 709 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: I know this game will be at a its one 710 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty two totals, so yeah, it's gonna be 711 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 1: up and down. I like the Muskies. I'm deciding whether 712 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: or not I'm gonna fire on this one or. 713 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 3: I won't be official with you, Matt, but I like 714 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 3: where your heads at. Zaper's up sixteen. In that first game, 715 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 3: they were cruising to win, and then yeah, daddy came 716 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 3: in and put he put baby to bed is what 717 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 3: he did. I lean away, but nothing official from me. 718 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 2: Jim. I'm gonna take Xavier sixteen and a half. It's 719 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 2: just opened at DraftKings as we are on the horn 720 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,719 Speaker 2: right now, Semester Pook, I'm going to take that. 721 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 722 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 2: The first game was a very emotional thing. It was 723 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 2: Rick Patino's nine hundredth win. They're a whole big lead 724 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 2: up to that, and Richard was like joking, like, well, 725 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 2: no one's making any big deal about me getting my 726 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 2: like two hundred and fourteenth win or something like that. 727 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 2: He's he's great on Twitter, Richard Patino. 728 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 1: He's Richard's great he's actually a funny test. 729 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, like maybe you get the focus Saint John's effort 730 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 2: because Xavier pushed him to the brink class game. But 731 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 2: I think it's more likely that they're not one on 732 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 2: a Monday after the Friday night game against Yukon where 733 00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 2: they were all in basically led that game most of 734 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 2: the second half, and I think I think Xavier can 735 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 2: hang around and make it competitive worth mentioning. 736 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: We did identify both u Kin and Saint John's on 737 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 1: our spotwash last week, and it did not matter as 738 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: they were both looking ahead in theory to their big game. 739 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: So maybe the biggest the biggest spots, maybe not always 740 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 1: as yes. 741 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:02,200 Speaker 2: The other biggest teams are so bad that it just 742 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 2: doesn't matter, right. 743 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: I think the best spot on the board is Tuesday 744 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: U n C, who just beat Duke. For those who 745 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 1: were under a rock, pretty crazy comeback. A lot of 746 00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 1: questionable coaching and officiating things, I'll say as a sort 747 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: of as a as a quasi Duke fan there. Yeah, 748 00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,880 Speaker 1: I don't know how Duke shot five free throws, just 749 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: kind of swallowed the whistle there late, but it. 750 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 2: Was the least the least files committed in a p 751 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 2: five versus P five team in like twenty. 752 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 1: Years, HATH teams are good about not that was a 753 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 1: little that was a little bit of outlier for me. 754 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 1: But Miami is now hosting UNC, the former Dukie assistant 755 00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:43,840 Speaker 1: Jay lucas part of the Brotherhood Kai the Real Brotherhood. 756 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: Does he exact revenge on behalf of his former boss 757 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 1: in a really good spot with a team that we 758 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 1: know has plenty of talent and plenty of size and 759 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,760 Speaker 1: should in theory match up pretty well with UNC health wise? 760 00:34:56,800 --> 00:34:58,800 Speaker 1: We need to check on I believe did True play 761 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 1: last though? He didn't love my best. 762 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 2: To check and it's personal issues per Lucas, right, you're 763 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 2: left to wonder what's going on I don't know if 764 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 2: there's internal drama there. 765 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 3: Man. 766 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,560 Speaker 1: I think he's super important this matchup to guard Trimble. 767 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: I would if he is playing, I love Miami. If 768 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 1: he's not playing, I still like Miami. I just don't 769 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: love it. 770 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's a home run spot is it 771 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 3: is the spot of spot you know all that stuff? Yeah? Great? Short, 772 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 3: so short though, I mean they're projected, they're projected to 773 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 3: win minus one kimpom. 774 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,560 Speaker 1: It's within the two either way. I batn't see drifting 775 00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 1: outside too. 776 00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 3: I am very worried that Miami cannot shoot the ball. 777 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 3: And if you can't shoot against North Carolina, could look 778 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 3: scoring against North Carolina. Miami has to score inside and 779 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,600 Speaker 3: I don't know if that's possible against this front line. 780 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,840 Speaker 3: They haven't been anybody in top sixty five and kimpom Miami. 781 00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 3: They just haven't played many people. I don't think they're 782 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 3: as good as their record shows. And heck, Boston College 783 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 3: with kind of tooth and nail, I don't I'm not 784 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 3: backing Miami. Jim in a very good spot. 785 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, they had the three hundred and fortieth ranked non 786 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 2: conference schedule per per ken Pom, and their league schedule 787 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 2: hasn't been difficult either. They didn't have to go West, 788 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 2: they haven't. They don't have to play Duke at all. 789 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 2: They haven't seen Virginia at they haven't seen Louis yet. 790 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:21,280 Speaker 2: Like this this team is. If you're battle tested Florida 791 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 2: and BYU back in November. That's the battles that they've 792 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 2: been tested. It's a great spot. I just don't trust them, 793 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 2: especially without Washington, and you want guards that are like 794 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 2: killers in the mid range. So they smu had because 795 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 2: that's what UNC's defense forces a ton of. I don't 796 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 2: think Miami can do that, So I'm going I'm gonna 797 00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 2: stay way, Matthew. But I love the spot. 798 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 799 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 1: I think Shelan Anderson can kind of be like that power, 800 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: that weird powerful middle of the belly of the of 801 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,919 Speaker 1: the the mid range area score that could go off here. 802 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 1: But yeah, you're right. The kind of shooting thing concerns me. 803 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 1: It's why they've had to play Malavich and Dort and 804 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 1: dove Rat even at times which those guys are one waylayers, right, 805 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: so you kind of sacrifice your defense for offense to 806 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: make that make that move other notables duke off. The 807 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:11,279 Speaker 1: loss goes to Pitt. Yeah, I just feel like, I 808 00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 1: don't know very high. 809 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 3: It's it's really badly What does m have that projected 810 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 3: as fifteen? 811 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, a sixteen like an hour ago. 812 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 3: Hey, you go to kim Pom that's a. 813 00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:31,839 Speaker 2: Pretty wild Yeah. No, I think it was seventy seven 814 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:33,000 Speaker 2: to sixty one. Seventy six. 815 00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,399 Speaker 3: Someone lost today and they shifted somehow. USC Penn State 816 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:37,399 Speaker 3: must have influenced it. 817 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you Pit lost by eleven at Clemson, not bad 818 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,640 Speaker 2: by twenty ath Virginia nineteen at home SMU like they're 819 00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 2: in a murders row in the in the ACC. They've 820 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,879 Speaker 2: got UNC on the road on deck. Jesus. I think 821 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 2: Duke pounds them. 822 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: We'll see if the Becommings plays. I think he would 823 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 1: be a huge boost. Miss last week for Pitts, they 824 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:58,800 Speaker 1: just don't have any depth. I think if you like 825 00:37:58,840 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: pitt you would take first half. I think you can 826 00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,040 Speaker 1: be sort of a second half. Put you to bed 827 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 1: against these bad teams. So I would look pitt first 828 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,879 Speaker 1: half maybe sort of an opposite trajectory of the UNC game. 829 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,800 Speaker 1: After you control the first twenty minutes, to the trash, 830 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 1: we go. 831 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:19,240 Speaker 3: What's that smell? It's dings me this trash. 832 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:20,880 Speaker 2: The sweet sweet trash. 833 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: The trash is a gold. 834 00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 3: Yeah. 835 00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 1: We have the Canecious Niagara under tagged pretty well last week. 836 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: I guess our theme here is we're just trying to 837 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: isolate really crappy games and do we like the under 838 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:36,320 Speaker 1: or do we like the side, But generally we like 839 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,720 Speaker 1: the under. I love that we get the Illinoi directional battle. 840 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: There's no official name for this rivalry. I was trying 841 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: to do some research on it Eastern Illinois versus Western Illinois. 842 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:49,719 Speaker 1: The points first, the leatherneck kui, good old fashioned hate 843 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:51,880 Speaker 1: though as we know not so far from the region. 844 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:55,319 Speaker 1: I think Eastern is the better team. I mean they 845 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:57,919 Speaker 1: are the better team. That's objective at this point. It's 846 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 1: like the one time where Eastern will be laying a 847 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:02,799 Speaker 1: we'll see what the number is going to be. But 848 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 1: part of me is a little bit tempted to bet 849 00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: against a the Panthers as like a six point favorite, 850 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 1: as bad as w Alleny that just like as it 851 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: just feels wrong to me. 852 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's one of those things like should this team 853 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 3: be favored by five against anybody? And Western kept it 854 00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:22,799 Speaker 3: close than in the first game it is a two 855 00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 3: point game. It was as in Charleston. You don't just 856 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 3: walk into Charleston, Illinois and expect to walk out with 857 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 3: a victory easily. Just don't do it. 858 00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 1: If you've been there, haven't you? Did you go watch 859 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:33,040 Speaker 1: Dom play there once? 860 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 2: I went to see a game in Macomb. I sure did. 861 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 3: Alvin McComb and Macomb Yeah yeah, so I leen towards 862 00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 3: Westernoi Matt getting getting the points. The first game was 863 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,799 Speaker 3: like decent possessions and it was one hundred and twelve points. 864 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 3: It was so inefficient. Uh, these are two really bad offenses. 865 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 3: Weston oysh to fourteen in the OBC. They've won one 866 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 3: game against a D one team this season. It's been 867 00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 3: bleak for Boudreau there. Yeah, I lean towards eleven next though, 868 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:00,399 Speaker 3: as as a five dog. 869 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 2: I believe in Jeff Goodman's job rankings coaching job rankings, 870 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,280 Speaker 2: they were the unanimous last place team in the OVC Western, 871 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 2: a league of bad jobs. They were everybody voted them twelve, 872 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 2: which is tough to see. Yeah, lean towards the Eastern. 873 00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 2: Both my parents went there. They're always talking about how 874 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,359 Speaker 2: they hate the leather necks. They can't stop bringing up. 875 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 2: It's a constant topic of conversation. Over meals massive rivalry. 876 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 2: I want nothing to do with it. I think hopefully 877 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,240 Speaker 2: the both bad offenses and both playing slow offensively outside 878 00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 2: the top three hundred possession length helps the under because 879 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 2: I think that's what we're probably sniffing out. 880 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 3: Like Matt said, not to believer Matt, but it is 881 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 3: worth noting that Western is like new to the OVC. 882 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 3: They were in the Summit for a long time. YEP, 883 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,720 Speaker 3: like these teams weren't even the same conference for forever, 884 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:47,959 Speaker 3: so it is kind of funny you think it would 885 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 3: be a big rivalry and I'm not even sure it 886 00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 3: really is. 887 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 1: I don't think yeah, I don't think it registers other 888 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,360 Speaker 1: games that I looked at. It's funny. I want to 889 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 1: talk about Central Arkansas. I don't know how to can 890 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: fit them in. It's like sort of like the so 891 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:00,640 Speaker 1: no one is paying it to but they're all of 892 00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: a sudden dominating the A Sun team they play North 893 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:07,439 Speaker 1: Alabama on the road. Tony puy Ole team man, Wow, 894 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 1: what a fall from Grace three hundred and forty first 895 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: and Ken. 896 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,640 Speaker 3: Poss the worst team of his career. Yeah, n D 897 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,200 Speaker 3: one Yeah, I don't know how. 898 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 1: I almost put this in like live Dog, I was like, 899 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 1: no favorite favorite, But I just want to bring that 900 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 1: up because fun team that deserves some attention and I 901 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 1: think qualifies for a lot of our discussion sections here. 902 00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 3: But I think that's it. 903 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 2: We haven't we haven't talked to my favorite bet of 904 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 2: the Monday Tuesday Slate. 905 00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 1: What is it? Share it? 906 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 2: BYU at Baylor. BYU has lost five of six, and 907 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 2: a lot of it's been against really tough opponents. Baylor 908 00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 2: kind of competed down the stretch. Scott Drew got his 909 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 2: first ever cover against t J Alzielberger. 910 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 3: It was like pressive. 911 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:45,120 Speaker 2: Really yeah, it was done fourteen with four minutes left 912 00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 2: and the spread was fourteen and a half. I was like, oh, man, 913 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 2: as I was tak going to get the cover again. 914 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,760 Speaker 2: I looked up again and it was a one possession game. 915 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 2: B Yu had a little bit troubles with Houston's physicality. 916 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,720 Speaker 2: That's not going to happen really against Baylor. They're awful 917 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:00,400 Speaker 2: on the defensive glass Baylor is there. They battle offlatively, 918 00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 2: but I think Kebaketa has a big game. Kevin Young 919 00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 2: had some quotes about like our bigs didn't make layups, 920 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 2: they didn't make free throws, kind of putting them on blasts. 921 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 2: Despite the good games of Right and Demanta, I just 922 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 2: don't really trust this Baylor team playing up. Skilling has 923 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,839 Speaker 2: missed that game again, He's kind of been in and out. 924 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:20,720 Speaker 2: So I will go with e Yu. There it's minus 925 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,399 Speaker 2: one at Ken Palm. We don't have a line yet. 926 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,279 Speaker 2: Oh it's two now again another one that moved Since 927 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 2: we've been about this. 928 00:42:26,239 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 1: Frustrated live streaming this. We're obviously someone's got got a 929 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:31,839 Speaker 1: patch and feed. They're hidden that the books are hitting 930 00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 1: it alive as well. 931 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 2: I don't know if like the USC Penn State result. Yeah, 932 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,879 Speaker 2: the numbers there, but I'll take b YU up to three. 933 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,400 Speaker 2: It's it's two right now for Ken Pom, but minus 934 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:45,239 Speaker 2: three give it to me. 935 00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:48,120 Speaker 3: I'm with you, Jim. I'm taking b YU. And that's 936 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,320 Speaker 3: with the guy that's lost to bets On Baylor recently 937 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 3: West Ginia, Colorado, and I always say it would be 938 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 3: their third cover in a row, so they are like 939 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 3: they're playing better. I suppose b YU losing five in 940 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,840 Speaker 3: a row, six of seven, that'd be surprised. Give me 941 00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 3: the Cougars as well. 942 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 1: I thought them there. I don't trust you all you 943 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 1: I know I don't like Baylor at all, but I 944 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 1: be why. It's just been weird to me too top heavy. 945 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 1: Let's recap our picks here. I'm trying to decide.
