Speaker 3: Every Monday morning, we'll be dropping a new BBOC episode

13
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 3: talking all things betting in the world of college hoops.

14
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 3: Today's episode, it's your standard formula if you've listened to

15
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 3: us before. We're talking big games of the week, mid

16
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 3: major games of the week, live dogs, favorite favorites, some spots,

17
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,320
Speaker 3: a trash section of course for you freaks out there,

18
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 3: and a spotlight section. This week's spotlight spoiler the IVY League.

19
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 3: The IVY League Conference play begins. I'm going to dive

20
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 3: into smart teams of the world. How exciting. All right,

21
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 3: let's get into it. Hello, Hi, how are you? Big

22
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,960
Speaker 3: games Monday and Tuesdays where we're looking Matthew Big ten

23
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 3: Action Nebraska and Ohio State. The Huskers have won eighteen

24
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 3: games in a row dating back to last year. That's

25
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 3: a real fact. That's incredible. And USC takes on Michigan

26
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 3: State US. He just got beat by Michigan by thirty points.

27
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,559
Speaker 3: They beat everyone by thirty but still pretty bad loss.

28
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 3: In Sparti was the unlucky team to lose at Nebraska.

29
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 3: Matthew Any thoughts on these two games. Kim Pom has

30
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 3: Ohio State minus one against Nebraska, Michigan State minus nine

31
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 3: against USC.

32
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 4: Yes, Ken, we have some early openers from our fine

33
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 4: sponsors at DraftKings minus one and a half Ohio State.

34
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 4: I thought for sure this would be shaded toward Nebraska.

35
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 4: I've metioned this before. I think Ohio State one of

36
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 4: those Big Ten teams whose home court I just don't

37
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 4: really respect. And frankly, I just don't think they're that good.

38
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 4: And I know Nebraska feels like they're due for a

39
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 4: bad game, they haven't really played one all year. I

40
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 4: kind of think that the Skurs go in there and

41
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,080
Speaker 4: get a win. If Ohio State's hot, that's probably the

42
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 4: recipe for a win, because they're gonna, you know, shell

43
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,959
Speaker 4: off the paint. But I like the skurs here, mister

44
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 4: m Ken Maybe a spinny plus square play, but why not.

45
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 4: I don't trust Ohio State, especially at home.

46
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: I don't trust a how State either, Matthew I'm gonna

47
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna kind of lean that way. I actually am

48
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: intrigued more by the totals in both of these games.

49
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,519
Speaker 1: I don't have a take on the side. I sort

50
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 1: of think Michigan State just pummels USC. A shorthanded USC

51
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 1: Michigan State off the loss, incredible rebounding team. I think

52
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 1: they can kind of beat up USC inside. But I'm

53
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:50,200
Speaker 1: gonna go with the over. In Ohio State Nebraska, I

54
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: think that one gets up and down a little bit.

55
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 5: Both teams have a lot of efficient ways to scoring.

56
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,919
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a shootout, as most Nebraska games are

57
00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:01,119
Speaker 1: over half the shots from the field in Nebraska games

58
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: are from three on both ends of the floor.

59
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 5: That's the way their defense dictates it.

60
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,800
Speaker 1: I think Ohio State can generally make those with mobiley

61
00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 1: with Thornton some skill in the front court.

62
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:12,839
Speaker 5: And then in the other game, I like the under

63
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 5: a lot guy. It's going to be one. I'm locking

64
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 5: in here for one of my bets. I'm going to

65
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 5: take the under in Michigan State and USC came to

66
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 5: the year thinking USC would be more of a defensive team.

67
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 1: Now that has been hampered a little bit by Marion

68
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: Dickerson being out for the year, the reigning Horizon Defensive

69
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: Player of the Year.

70
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 5: He's not in the lineup. That does hurt.

71
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: But they don't have Rodney Rice, they don't have Elijah

72
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: Arenas back yet, so their shot creation is a little

73
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: bit limited.

74
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 5: They played an eighty four.

75
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: Possession game with Michigan because who cares, just get up

76
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: and down whatever. Michigan State's transition defense is always elite

77
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 1: under Tom Izzoh. You're not going to get a lot

78
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: of easy buckets there. I think, especially off a loss,

79
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: Michigan State's going to be buckled in defensively.

80
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 5: I think that game kind.

81
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: Of slows a little bit, has some inefficiency. With the

82
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 1: size that the Spartans bring under one fifty point five,

83
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: they're quite a bit I'm going to lock that in.

84
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 3: I like it. Matthew. I know you're always a travel guy.

85
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 3: Michigan State technically longer travel here for this game. The USC,

86
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 3: who I assume spent the weekend in the Mitton State

87
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 3: in Michigan after playing Michigan, not that it matters that much.

88
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: I also think that Michigan State is gonna cover this game.

89
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 3: They're disciplined, they're working the glass I think prevails. And yeah,

90
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 3: without Rodney rice Us, he just not the same animal here.

91
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 3: I'm not very scared of them. In the Nebraska Whio

92
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 3: State game, I just have a rule right now, I'm

93
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 3: not stepping in front of the Husker train. They beat

94
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 3: Illinois by thirty at Illinois. They can win on the road.

95
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 3: This team is impressive. It's not your father's Nebraska. Wait,

96
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 3: they did not Yeah maybe thirty excuse me as I

97
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 3: say that wrong at home and they three? They beat

98
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 3: on by three. Maybe wisconstantly thirty. I got my lines

99
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 3: mixed up there. What a win it would have been though,

100
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 3: had they done that. Okay, they won at Illinois. They

101
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 3: won at Ilana Point.

102
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 4: They were getting like nine in that game.

103
00:04:58,880 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were.

104
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 4: They covered like handily. And the one thing is that

105
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 4: they did play Tuesday Friday, where Ohio State only played Friday,

106
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,480
Speaker 4: so you could maybe there's a little bit of a

107
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 4: we're a wear and tear on those legs as they

108
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 4: go into that kind of the two day off, back

109
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 4: to back segment and the Big ten schedule, but I'm

110
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 4: not looking into it.

111
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 3: I like the skurs, all right, sounds like skirts, Matt.

112
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 3: I'm sitting fence on both those games. But Tuesday, I'm

113
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 3: looking at a couple of things here. We're starting off

114
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 3: with Duke at Louisville. Best two teams in the ACC.

115
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 3: Question Mark says, Kai. Louisville just lost to Stanford and

116
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 3: Duke has been life and death with Georgia Tech. They

117
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 3: couldn't extend against Florida State and only one by four

118
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 3: Lipscomb had them tied at half. It's not quite the

119
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,279
Speaker 3: same dominant Duke team we've seen in the early going.

120
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 3: And then MIKEL. Brown, his status looms large for Louisville. Jim,

121
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 3: I think this is a pretty major spot for Louisville

122
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 3: if they can take it and hit shots. I'm just

123
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 3: not sure who guards mister Cameron Boozer.

124
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wanted to bet Duke here because you got

125
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,200
Speaker 1: Louiville coming back from the West Coast, going all the

126
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: way from California after playing the cal Stanford twofer.

127
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 5: But Duke just leaves me feeling cold lately.

128
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 1: Man. They did not look good against Florida State, couldn't defend,

129
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 1: did not look good against Georgia Tech, couldn't defend, could

130
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: not defend Texas Tech.

131
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 5: And they're four players.

132
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: I mean that's three straight like really poor efforts. They

133
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: were only up like one at halftime on Lipscomb. I

134
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: don't know what to think about Duke right now. There's

135
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 1: a big hullabaloo being made about them playing the two

136
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 1: point guard lineup, playing Foster and Caden Boozer together.

137
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 5: Is that really impressive? Is it working?

138
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: Like they're not getting stops right now? I guess the

139
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: offense is working well that they've gott some big performances.

140
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 1: Evans had a big one to help beat Florida State.

141
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: But Matt, I do not get a lot of inspiration

142
00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 1: on a Duke. I am sitting all the way out

143
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: on this one. I'm guessing Brown Junior will play. It's

144
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: just like a hunch. I feel like his handlers will

145
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:57,480
Speaker 1: let him showcase against Duke. But I don't have a

146
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: strong enough take a strong enough read on either of

147
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,920
Speaker 1: these team right now. Given the travel situation for Louisville

148
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: and Duke's like bad play recently.

149
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 4: I think Louisville wins this game.

150
00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 3: I really do.

151
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 4: I'm with you, Jim. It's the last three and a

152
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,240
Speaker 4: half games, so seven halves of basketball for Duke have

153
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 4: just not been very good. Defensively is where it's been

154
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 4: concerned Louisville. If Duke tries to cover up their man

155
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 4: demand issues with that zone. They showcase a little bit

156
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 4: against Gorgia Tech, and I think it's Florida State. Louisville

157
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 4: is gonna shred that. I think Louisville has multiple mismatch

158
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 4: opportunities with just how their perimeters play, especially with how

159
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 4: good Wooley's been in Brown's absence. I think Louisville gets him.

160
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 4: I know they have the long trip back, but they

161
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:40,040
Speaker 4: have an extra day off. Duke's got to come pretty

162
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 4: quick from Tallahassee only two days off, where you get

163
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 4: three days off for the Cardiac Cardinals off that lost Kai,

164
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 4: I think they get it done. Duke's three point coverage

165
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 4: defensively has not been good. They've let years get open.

166
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 4: It's not been like a fluky teams have just made

167
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 4: shots like no, They've let some guys get open. Looks

168
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 4: like I've watched it. It's not been great.

169
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 3: Good agree Louisville for me official play adding Louisville to

170
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 3: the card Ah, the card get it, but the Cardinals, Okay, sure,

171
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 3: what's your Uh?

172
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 5: Does it? Does Brown have to play for you to

173
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 5: be in I'm curious?

174
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 3: Yes, I would, Yes, I have a different I think

175
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 3: I need Brown, Matt. I think I need Brown. Yeah.

176
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 3: What can Brown do for you for me? He can

177
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 3: help cover this game? Uh? Moving on Big East. We

178
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 3: got Big East in Big twelve to finish off Tuesday,

179
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: Saint John's at Butler. Saint John's just minus two for

180
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,119
Speaker 3: kim Pom. Would assume they take a little bit of money

181
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 3: in this game, but heck, they're off a really bad

182
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,800
Speaker 3: loss to Providence. That was shocking that they blew that game.

183
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 3: The resume is pretty weak from a attorney perspective, down

184
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 3: to like twenty four in kim Pom Butler Matt is

185
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 3: one and three in the Big East. Typical year for them. Again. Frankly,

186
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 3: they look promising. They just can't win in conference play.

187
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 3: I think their their length and foul discipline, ability to

188
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 3: rebound can hold the Johnny's at Bay a little bit,

189
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 3: and certainly shooting is a big problem for Saint for

190
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 3: the Saint John's red storm, But do you believe in

191
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 3: a turnaround here? If so, if you believe in Saint

192
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 3: John's getting off the schneide, it's a short price to

193
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 3: lay right here.

194
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 4: I like Saint John's. The price is gonna be the question. Man.

195
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,720
Speaker 4: Just a HUGEREI offensive performance where they're like thirty percent

196
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 4: from inside the arc. They missed a fourteen pre throws. Yeah,

197
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 4: they grabbed a bunch offensive rebounds, but that's sort of

198
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 4: a flawed step. When you miss so many, you have

199
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 4: a pretty good chance to grab a lot of missus yourself.

200
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 4: Butler's just lead eggs and key home spots. I thought

201
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 4: the Villanova game, obviously even know Villanova is pretty good,

202
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 4: but then the Providence game, I'm sorry, the Sorry the

203
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 4: Boys was the one that so it's twice. Butler's been

204
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 4: i think in kind of key good home spots, and

205
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 4: they've just sort of, you know, they've they've kind not

206
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 4: they've not really responded. I think Saint John's comes in

207
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 4: and just punks them on the glass. I've allers been

208
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 4: pretty good on the glass this year, but I think

209
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 4: there's a real edge and I think a real bounce back.

210
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 4: Patino lights fire under a frustrated team angle here for

211
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 4: the Johnny's kind of a square angle, but that's where.

212
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 1: I lean Johnny's better get after on the glass because

213
00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,760
Speaker 1: their first shot offense stinks like their their guards do

214
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: not make their big men better.

215
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 5: It's like, uh, oh, give it to Zubie and hope

216
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 5: he can go to work one on one.

217
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,559
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys saw Bryce Hopkins get

218
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: absolutely eviscerated off the bounce for the clinching basket against Providence,

219
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: like just reaching in and got crossed up and gave

220
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: up old dunk. I think to turn into a four

221
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: point game, probably satisfying for Friar fans after what he

222
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: did to them and didn't really play. But I think

223
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: Butler's lack of Big East talent is starting to peek

224
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: in a little bit here. I think Bizjack is a

225
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: Big East player. I think a Jaii is clearly a

226
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 1: Big East player. But after that man not a tryworry guy.

227
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: Kaiser has started to make shots. That was his whole

228
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: reputation coming to Maryland last year, so that helps, but

229
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: not a lout of debt. They lost Jalen Jackson the

230
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,079
Speaker 1: point guard and had to go to stink who has

231
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: been okay but not really what you want from your

232
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: starting point guard. Only played fourteen minutes against Villtanova. They're

233
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 1: trying to figure things out with him at that spot.

234
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: I think Saint John's bounce is back as well, a

235
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: motivated Patino chewing out those guys after they really blew

236
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: that prominence game. They're up double digits a couple of

237
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: times in the second half and just could not close.

238
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,960
Speaker 1: Had some terrible offense possessions down the stretch. So yeah,

239
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: I'm with these guys. I think I'd lay like three

240
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 1: with Saint John's, but.

241
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 5: If it starts to run away with no Jackson, I wouldn't.

242
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 5: I wouldn't go past that.

243
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 4: Is there a small chance he could come back? I

244
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,959
Speaker 4: saw I need to double check my research there. I

245
00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 4: think there's a chance he could return out, probably at

246
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 4: this game. I think they have a week off after

247
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:27,959
Speaker 4: this game. It makes more sense for him to come

248
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 4: back after that break. I would think, if that's even

249
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 4: in the cards, just to keep because that's gonna be

250
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 4: a huge money mover in the market if if he

251
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 4: makes a you know, a Bill Murray esque return here.

252
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 3: Not sure.

253
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 5: I thought the season I heard out.

254
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 4: For season two, but then it was sort of a

255
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 4: about face. I'll double check that real quick, but just

256
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,080
Speaker 4: something to keep an eye on. Small chance, but still

257
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 4: would be a pretty.

258
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 3: Cute Yeah, lean for Lean, Johnny's for me. Not not

259
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 3: an official play. Texas Tech Houston Houston minus six for

260
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 3: Kim Pum crazy overtime game last year. For people that remember,

261
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 3: I think we were at a Bacheler party during this game,

262
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 3: I want to say Texas Tech game. Yeah, the Nut

263
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 3: Kick game. That's right? Someone, Yeah, it was a topping.

264
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:11,800
Speaker 5: That the nuts.

265
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,520
Speaker 3: Yeah yes, and he got Yeah, he missed the entire game.

266
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 3: Tex tex still won in overtime. Nuts absolutely nuts game,

267
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 3: get it. No bench, no problem lately for Texas Tech.

268
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 3: They killed Oklahoma State without their bench, and I guess

269
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 3: Tyery Brian did play a little bit more in that game.

270
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 3: They hit seventeen threes. That certainly helps. But Christian Anderson

271
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,280
Speaker 3: Jim gets a major test in this game against Houston's

272
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 3: perimeter defense. We know Texas teach is kind of weak

273
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 3: up front in terms of depth and on the boards,

274
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 3: and that's bad against Houston. I kindly in Houston here,

275
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 3: but I don't really trust them laying more than like

276
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 3: a couple of possessions this season at least.

277
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, they they ended up. I think they won by seven.

278
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: They covered some numbers in this game. Yeah, it didn't

279
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 1: really deserve that one. I'm thinking about this game a

280
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: little bit in the way I thought about Iowa at

281
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 1: Michigan State, where Michigan State took the ball out of

282
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: starts his hands a ton by sending two to the

283
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: ball and ball screens forcing other guys to create and

284
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 1: beat him.

285
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 5: I think that's exactly what Houston's gonna do.

286
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: They trap real hard and ball screens get the ball

287
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: out of Anderson's hands.

288
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 5: Maybe Toppin has a big game in the short role.

289
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: Because of that, But if it's not Anderson, there's nobody

290
00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: really making plays on the perimeter. Watts has played a

291
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:27,199
Speaker 1: little bit better. He's kind of the jumbo distributing wing

292
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: forward that they need. But Petty hasn't been like a

293
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,440
Speaker 1: true point guard. He's more just a shooter, and God

294
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: knows that well. And Brian can't really do anything with

295
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,480
Speaker 1: the ball in their hands, So I think that's going

296
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:38,800
Speaker 1: to be kind of a concerned.

297
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 5: Scheme wise for them.

298
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: I dual lean Houston here, Matt the physicality I think

299
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 1: kind of wears down the front court. That's just top

300
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 1: in right now. I don't think they're getting bamguy back.

301
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,640
Speaker 1: I don't think a Quintok or Mosley are going to play.

302
00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: So it's going to be a lot on mister Toppin

303
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 1: to rebound, and I think that's going to be a

304
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: little bit of a challenge against its relentless Houston front line.

305
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think Houston wins, but laying laying a big number.

306
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 4: I don't know if I feel great about that. Kingston

307
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 4: Plumbings has been great, and obviously you feel great about

308
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 4: Jojo Tugler throwing him on top and is that gonna

309
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 4: be the matchupvers he gonna be? Is that too where

310
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 4: they throw one of their true bigs on him? I think, Sam,

311
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,320
Speaker 4: I think I gotta go Tuggler, right. That just puts

312
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 4: your best guy on their best guy, and you cut

313
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 4: off the one of Texas texts, two roles shot creators,

314
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 4: and you have multiple guys to throw on. Anderson comes

315
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 4: down to offense for Houston guy. We know they haven't

316
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 4: really executed really efficiently, but man, with how well Flemings

317
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 4: is playing him and him and us, and I think

318
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 4: they can kind of course correct some of the shoddy

319
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 4: perimeter play that we've seen Houston look mortal at times

320
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 4: this season. But so I think Houston wins, But I

321
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,800
Speaker 4: don't if I'll lay nine or eight, nine.

322
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 5: Ten, God, you think it'd be that high?

323
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 3: I mean, it's eight.

324
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 4: Eight's my guess.

325
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 3: Maybe he gets there. I don't know whoever he's got

326
00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 3: the's on kem palm.

327
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 4: Sorry, yeah, I thought it'd be like seven, right, Maybe

328
00:14:58,440 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 4: that's two highs.

329
00:14:59,040 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 5: We'll say.

330
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, whoever has the biggest balls well guard Toppin so

331
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 3: Samson can try to get him the kicking again, get

332
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 3: him out of the game again. That's the key mid

333
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 3: major games. A lot of good ones actually on Monday Tuesday,

334
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 3: a very a nice treat for the early week for

335
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: people getting back in the work swing. How about Steven F.

336
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 3: Austin at McNeese, the two best teams in the south

337
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 3: Land this season. Mcneice's minus a per kempon, but SFA

338
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 3: has the lead in the conference. They're five and zero.

339
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 3: McNee dropped a game to incarnate word, but rest assured

340
00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 3: they are very, very good. Matt Brower has been very

341
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 3: impressive at the helm of SFA. They've been impressive, winning

342
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 3: by margin, not just winning games, They've been winning by margin.

343
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 3: MATTI is a big defensive battle advantage SFA certainly on

344
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 3: the glass. The Jacks are also actually handling the ball

345
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 3: this year instead of usually ecuse me, instead of turning

346
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 3: it over like they have been under Kyle Keller of

347
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 3: teams past. But it's a big test against mcneese's pressure.

348
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 3: Key on Thomas is awesome, but McNeice is a very,

349
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 3: very very good team despite the forty point lost in Michigan. Matt,

350
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 3: who do you lean in this game or do you

351
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 3: have a take?

352
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 4: I kind of like SFA if the number is like

353
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 4: eight or higher says a lot in my opinion, I

354
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 4: think is a lot. I think SFA is very real,

355
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,520
Speaker 4: and I don't know if I trust McNee I know

356
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 4: Larry Johnson's been awesome, but still it's a rookie creator.

357
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 4: You know, maybe he doesn't He's not going to be

358
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 4: fully buttoned up in a big conference game, especially with

359
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 4: how well SFA is playing. I just think the Browers

360
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 4: has been a terrific coach. I think he's like not

361
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 4: saying he's better than Keller, but he certainly has sustained,

362
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 4: if not maybe added to what they do. And I

363
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 4: just think I just, again from what I've seen of

364
00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 4: them this year, like what they've shown me so slightly

365
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 4: and they're just if it's eight or higher. But we'll see.

366
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 5: Yeah.

367
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 1: I like SFA two, not going to lock that in

368
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,400
Speaker 1: as one of the show plays, but really lean hard

369
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 1: that way.

370
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 5: I think matchup wise, there's a lot of things going

371
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 5: for him. They have an elite interior defense with Colonel

372
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 5: I think.

373
00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: I think that's how it's pronounced, colonel spelled like the

374
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 1: military position.

375
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 5: So I'm gonna that's what I'm gonna call him.

376
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: But he's a monster shot blocker and that's why SFA

377
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 1: is top twenty in the country in two point percentage defense.

378
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: East really wants to score around the rim offensive glass driving.

379
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: They don't take a lot of threes. They don't make

380
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 1: a lot of threes outside of Archie, so I think

381
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,520
Speaker 1: they're gonna end up running into the long arms of

382
00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,159
Speaker 1: the law inside near the paint, and that lets Stephen F.

383
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 5: Austin hang around.

384
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:18,240
Speaker 1: It's very weird that it's not high pressure, but also

385
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: turn it over SFA. It's a completely different footprint or

386
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: blueprint of a team this year, and I think that

387
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 1: actually helps them hang around.

388
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,399
Speaker 3: I had a double take when I saw their turnover numbers.

389
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,280
Speaker 3: I was like, Oh, that's actually not that bad. Good

390
00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 3: for them, Good for the Jacks. In the CAIA the

391
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 3: Coastal Athletic Conference, William and Mary is the class of

392
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 3: the league right now, or at least one of them.

393
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:40,879
Speaker 3: Two and oh in the conference. They are visiting Charleston

394
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 3: William Mary minus two for Kim Pom on the row

395
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 3: Charleston also two and oh in the league. How good

396
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 3: is Brian Earl Jim Number one offensive tempo in the country,

397
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 3: but still pretty tough on defense this season. Charleston, after

398
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 3: a rough start, is now five and one against the

399
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:56,479
Speaker 3: spread their last six games. They've won five in a row,

400
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 3: so they're looking more like a team we thought they

401
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 3: would be under Chrismack this season. Thoughts in this game.

402
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I took Charleston as a slight dog against Elon

403
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,159
Speaker 1: last week on Wednesday and that went well. So I

404
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 1: think this team is trending up. Like you said, they

405
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 1: got Colby dug In back. I got him to debut

406
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 1: and he's a big piece. He's an All CA guy

407
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: at Campbell last year. But man, as you mentioned, Earl

408
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,360
Speaker 1: is so good. I hope Pitt and.

409
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 5: Rutgers, etc.

410
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,159
Speaker 1: Have him on speed dial heading into the off season

411
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 1: because I think he can make things happen at the

412
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: Power conference level. His style is fun, it's exciting, and

413
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: it clearly gets wins. What he did at Cornell, what

414
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 1: he's done at William and Mary.

415
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,360
Speaker 5: I'm kind of a buyer Matthew.

416
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: But Charleston's trending up, even with mister Dean being out

417
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:44,040
Speaker 1: for the year, the incredible athlete that he is. With

418
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 1: Hickman finally in there and fully situated into the lineup,

419
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:51,200
Speaker 1: dug In being into the starting lineup, I think Charleston

420
00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: does trend back up. So I got to stay away

421
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: from this one because I think I like both teams.

422
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 4: I'm gonna bet Charleston here. Officially, I don't like being

423
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 4: there shooting variants monster Chaser here. But uh, William and

424
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 4: Mary fifth best defensive three point percentage, and they're not

425
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 4: like exactly ball hawking like that, they're sort of kind

426
00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 4: of daring you to shoot from the outside. I think

427
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 4: they've gotten a little bit, uh, you know, a little

428
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 4: bit of smoke and mirror I think in their defensive

429
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 4: success so far the season and Charleston now healthy, especially

430
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 4: with Hickman, you know, kind of get back into full strength.

431
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,879
Speaker 4: You got Dougan back. Gale encounter has really emerged. I

432
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,440
Speaker 4: think you're starting to see the best version of this

433
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 4: Charleston team, which knew it was super talented. They have

434
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,640
Speaker 4: that weird like internal turmoial thing. Really fired an assistant

435
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 4: coach after some you know, just a really tough start

436
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 4: to the non con. I think this is where they

437
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 4: hit their stride. Good matchup. They got hammered by women

438
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 4: Mary last year at Williamsburg. I think they get some

439
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 4: revenge this year, some exact some uh some payback here.

440
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,800
Speaker 1: I like the Cougars guy minus one point five at

441
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:49,280
Speaker 1: Draft Kings.

442
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I see minus one one and a half at DK,

443
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 4: and I think I had laid up to like three. No,

444
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,240
Speaker 4: anything on three is just like.

445
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 3: Your favor arst Oh, okay, you.

446
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:03,480
Speaker 4: Kick crazy there Kenpom has it william Ry too.

447
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 5: What would you guys have made this line to start

448
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 5: the season.

449
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'd be Charleston six seven yeah, seven eight.

450
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 5: Yeah.

451
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 3: It's a good play. Yeah.

452
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 5: Yeah.

453
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 3: We like to think about that in terms of conference

454
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 3: resets while we make the game preseason. Sometimes it works,

455
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 3: sometimes it does not. UH two games on Tuesday I

456
00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:26,360
Speaker 3: want to highlight really quickly. One in the A ten

457
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,840
Speaker 3: George Washington is having Dayton very exciting game, and then

458
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 3: Matt's favorite ly the Mac Bowling Green is going to

459
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 3: Kent State. The Dayton game hosting George Washington. Both teams

460
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 3: again the theme for this section two and zero in

461
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 3: the A ten. Both teams expected to be contenders in

462
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 3: this league, and they have so far. I just have

463
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 3: a very hard time seeing them coming into Dayton Arena

464
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,159
Speaker 3: George Washington, Matthew the Revolutionaries and getting a win. I

465
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 3: know the Flyers haven't been convincing this season, but they've

466
00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,359
Speaker 3: done it with defense. And if you can obviously stop

467
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 3: the explosive George Washington offense, stop Rafael Castro in the middle,

468
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 3: which I think Date a little more equipped to do

469
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 3: than most teams, I think you can find success against them.

470
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:07,280
Speaker 3: The home court is so good. Thoughts on Dayton, George Washington,

471
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 3: mat or if you want to veer towards Kent State

472
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:09,640
Speaker 3: feel free?

473
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:14,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, just worth noting the absence of Latang tough for Dayton.

474
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,919
Speaker 4: I think he's a key floor strutcher, especially in this

475
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 4: matchup with GW's bigs. I think he can create some

476
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 4: offensive real estate because Datan's gray. When they can get

477
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:27,360
Speaker 4: those wings downhill, especially in the half court, there's gonna

478
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 4: be kind of cramped floor spacing without him, I'm not

479
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 4: sure if he's gonna play or not. I think he

480
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 4: was on crutches, but just.

481
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 5: On New Ors Eve. Yeah, I guess no.

482
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 4: I'm guessing no. I don't want to put all a

483
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 4: bunch of stock in one key guy, but I do

484
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 4: like Dayton if he's in there, kay. I do think

485
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:45,679
Speaker 4: he's kind of a key piece in this matchup, but

486
00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 4: if until I have some certainty, we'll probably stay away.

487
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,120
Speaker 4: George Washington Still, I think they're a games. Their fastball

488
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,959
Speaker 4: still really good. So I'm just kind of what kind

489
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 4: of scares me spooks me a little bit.

490
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, GW's loaded talent wise, I mean, and if Latang

491
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 1: not in there for Dayton, Castro can really eat around

492
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: the paint. He is a monster on both ends around

493
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: the rim, gets to the line, a ton eats on

494
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:11,080
Speaker 1: the glass. I think if they don't have the big

495
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 1: seven footer, then Dayton could be in a little bit

496
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 1: of trouble. But man, yeah, Kai, we been to you

497
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 1: d Arena. We've seen the environment there. And credit to

498
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 1: Dayton for getting out of Loyola with a win. Yeah,

499
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: the game was not going well.

500
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,640
Speaker 5: They're down there, they're big, man. Loyla is playing much

501
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,360
Speaker 5: better in the league play and they just skated by,

502
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 5: scraped out with the win. And I think that actually

503
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 5: matters for.

504
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,120
Speaker 1: A team that you know, probably was seeing that Loyola

505
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: is outside the top two fifty and Ken Palm, this

506
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 1: is probably a pushover and not really anymore. But this

507
00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: one's true toss up to me. I don't I don't

508
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: have a take on it. Tong status matters a ton.

509
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 3: Good Dayton fires.

510
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 4: I think he's out. I'll just reading a little more

511
00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 4: about this. Probably said no timetable. I'm thinking he's out

512
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 4: for this game, so.

513
00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 3: I'm saying away if he's out, I don't like that

514
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:58,120
Speaker 3: at all. Last, just really quickly on Ken State, Blewy

515
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 3: and Green Kent is minus one per Kempalm here bowllying

516
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 3: has been impressive to me. I know they lost to

517
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 3: Miams Ohio, but myam Ohio is beating everybody right now,

518
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,359
Speaker 3: including Akron eleventh in the country and turnover rate on

519
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 3: the defensive end, that's been their strength. I think that

520
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 3: gives Kent State a lot of fits. They just have

521
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 3: been have had a hard time handling the ball gym,

522
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 3: but of course can't state physical as always, they're gonna

523
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 3: live the line a nice advantage for each team in

524
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 3: this game. Any thoughts here.

525
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 1: Man not a ton here, I kind of this is

526
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 1: a preseason line game. I'd have Kent State like same

527
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,800
Speaker 1: multiple point favorite here, probably like five or so.

528
00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 5: But Bowling Green's been really good.

529
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: Credit to Todd sign and for what he's been able

530
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: to figure out with those pieces, built kind of an

531
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: inside out defense with Glover, the D two transfer coming

532
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 1: in and giving them some real shot blocking.

533
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 5: Complimented Towns well in that front.

534
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,680
Speaker 1: Court and having the shot blocking matters with how they're

535
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 1: trying to pressure. I think Kent State could have a

536
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: little success on the offensive glass. I know Bowling Green's

537
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,879
Speaker 1: rebounded fairly well defensively, but Gillespie is just such a monster,

538
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: one man wrecking crew on the boards, arguably the best

539
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: mid major rebounder in the country. So Matt lean to

540
00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: Kent State at home with the team that I thought

541
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,000
Speaker 1: was better in the preseason, but I'm not ready to

542
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: rubber stamp it.

543
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:13,400
Speaker 5: With a bet.

544
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, slightly and Kent stay last two games, and I

545
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 4: thought they know produced perdue. I did think they would

546
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 4: put up a little more of a fight in that game,

547
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 4: and then to follow that up with a real clunker

548
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 4: against NIU, who I know is better this year, but

549
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 4: still only winning that game by four. They basically won

550
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 4: because they got a pretty nice whistle shot forty free throws.

551
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 4: I think they're like eleven and fifty from three to

552
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,520
Speaker 4: the last two games. They can start making some shots

553
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 4: because Buwling Green they play with I think Simon calls

554
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,680
Speaker 4: that monster zone. I think there's gonna be some opportunities

555
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,000
Speaker 4: to make shots, but Kent State's I know their offensive

556
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 4: rebounding is a good kind of a remedy for a

557
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,239
Speaker 4: cold shooting night, but still I think to feel good

558
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 4: about back in Kent State, they need to make some

559
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,360
Speaker 4: shots here, So I'll probably stay.

560
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 3: Away here kaiy Lean towards Kent State slightly, though I

561
00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 3: like these preseason if you will, getting back in the

562
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,680
Speaker 3: swing of things and conference play. Okay, Live Dog section

563
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 3: fellas last quick flashback. Last week, we were all over

564
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,400
Speaker 3: cal Baptist on the spread. They did not win outright,

565
00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 3: but they did cover against Utah Valley if you got

566
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 3: down on them. The other takes not quite as good.

567
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 3: Matt did mentioned Charlton last week against Arlington. I'm not

568
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 3: sure that was an official play for anybody, but Wazoo

569
00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 3: didn't get it done against Seattle Bill and Mary smoked

570
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 3: Howson so towsand was one that we all liked last

571
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 3: week did not work out, and then NIU failed against

572
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,400
Speaker 3: Buffalo this week fellas I'm gonna lay out four four

573
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 3: year real quick. If you like anything else, hey bring

574
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 3: them to the table. Rutgers is hosting Oregon. Now I

575
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 3: know Rutgers is I think a four and a half

576
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,840
Speaker 3: point dog, so not that big of a dog here,

577
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 3: not a big money line price, but hosting Oregon, Oregon

578
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 3: might still be shorthanded without Shells Dad. And they got

579
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,080
Speaker 3: a little bit fortunate against Maryland with a turb shooting

580
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,679
Speaker 3: six for thirty two from three in the swaky of

581
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 3: Texas Southern plus seven I believe is the line right

582
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 3: now in DraftKings or if it's not out yet, it's

583
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 3: around that plus eight to Kempom. They have not beaten

584
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,320
Speaker 3: a D one team, Texas Southern. They've been a little

585
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:17,679
Speaker 3: bit hurt, but the swack is pretty wild and high variance,

586
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,120
Speaker 3: and I know Johnny Jones always has talent there. Then

587
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 3: on Tuesday, I'm looking at a big ten game Minnesota

588
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,160
Speaker 3: plus six per KMPOM hosting Iowa the Barn, a house

589
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 3: of horrors. They beat Indiana in this place in Iowa,

590
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 3: of course, owned two in truro road games. They've played

591
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 3: some pretty good teams in the road, but hey, I'm

592
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 3: gonna throw it out there. And then finally South Carolina

593
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,120
Speaker 3: plus ten per kempom on the road at LSU, potentially

594
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 3: Nodeed and Thomas again for LSU. I think South Carolina

595
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 3: is a tough, physical team that won't go away and

596
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 3: at least cover a spread. If it's near double digits.

597
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,920
Speaker 3: Without Thomas it would not be. But we'll see when

598
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 3: a netline's actually come out. Matthew, I'll give you the

599
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 3: first crack here. Do you like any of those four

600
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 3: games or are you going elsewhere on the card?

601
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 4: The game cocks intrigued me. My, I only have one,

602
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 4: and I'm going off off the bulletin board here. I

603
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,960
Speaker 4: like Texas A and m another sec matchup. They got

604
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 4: Auburn opposite there deck. Auburn just went to war with Georgia,

605
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,080
Speaker 4: and I think A and M just they're gonna have

606
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 4: about two or three games where they, like I said,

607
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 4: they bang in sixteen seventeen threes and no one's gonna

608
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:23,120
Speaker 4: beat him on that night. And so I'm just kind

609
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 4: of trying to throw a dart here, bending into the variance,

610
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,679
Speaker 4: high end tail nature that this A and M team plays.

611
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,439
Speaker 4: I know, no m Bacco is definitely concern in this matchup,

612
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 4: given the strength of Auburn's wings and kind of power

613
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 4: forwards there when kishan Hole specifically, but still, I just

614
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:39,159
Speaker 4: think this might be a game they come out and

615
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 4: shoot a well. Jim So, I like the Aggies again,

616
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,280
Speaker 4: just kind of a Darth throw there, just some pocket chains,

617
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:45,159
Speaker 4: nothing substantial.

618
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 1: Wow, neither of you going for the twenty five point

619
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: home dog Penn State in conference? Huh quick at there

620
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,120
Speaker 1: against the Juggernaut bulldozer that is the hol Vernens.

621
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 3: Kay.

622
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 5: I like South Carolina on the number.

623
00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna dabble money line there, but I think

624
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: they're gonna keep it feisty in that game. I like

625
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: the way that they slow it down. Is such a

626
00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 1: differential in that league. They're more comfortable in the half

627
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: court and they make teams play at their pace. Vanderbilt

628
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 1: took care of them, but man, if there's no Thomas,

629
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 1: I know they were feisty with and they competed with

630
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: Texas A and M without him, but that can really

631
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,760
Speaker 1: wear on him. He's their big time creator in the

632
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 1: back court. I definitely like South Carolina there. If he's out,

633
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 1: give me ten there, I will take it. I'm gonna

634
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 1: put that down unofficially.

635
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:28,880
Speaker 5: I probably only go.

636
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: Down to like nine if he's out, But we'll see

637
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 1: what the line actually lands at. I wish I was

638
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: getting more points with Rutgers. I want to see it's

639
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: four and a half at DraftKings right now.

640
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 5: I thought maybe.

641
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 1: I guess that seems to price in Shells Dad not playing,

642
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: And I know Oregon has plummeted in analytical rankings and

643
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,200
Speaker 1: that's part of why, like they've.

644
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,720
Speaker 5: Just got these short lines. But as you mentioned, it's

645
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 5: a second.

646
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 1: Game on the East coast, you know, perhaps the travel

647
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,240
Speaker 1: wears on them a little bit. Look what happened to

648
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 1: Louisville and their second game on the West coast.

649
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 5: All the way the country. I think that can wear

650
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 5: on the teams a bit.

651
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: I just wish I got a few more points there

652
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: because Rutgers is kind of a disjointed mess a lot

653
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: of the time, and I'm not willing to back them

654
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,200
Speaker 1: unless Chelstad is out and I get five points.

655
00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:15,600
Speaker 5: It doesn't seem like that's gonna happen.

656
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 3: I also need at least five and money line is yeah,

657
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 3: Bridge too farther right. I think it's a good spot

658
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,080
Speaker 3: and we can add to the spots later on. But yeah,

659
00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 3: I am taking South Carolina, though officially on the spread.

660
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll sprink on the money line. Okay, Yeah, I'm

661
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:36,479
Speaker 3: a rascally rabbit favor favorite sponsored by DraftKings is our

662
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 3: next section. Last week, we gave you a bunch of options.

663
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 3: Don't need to go through all of them, but suffice

664
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 3: to say Michigan is still smashing people. And that's one

665
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 3: on Tuesday that I've added to this because I say,

666
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 3: why not? Is my question?

667
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:49,280
Speaker 5: Why not?

668
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 3: Michigan minus twenty three will be higher than that, most

669
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 3: likely against Penn State. No one could stop this team.

670
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,719
Speaker 3: They're eight and one against the spread their last nine games.

671
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,440
Speaker 3: They've won nine to ten games by twenty plus in

672
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 3: that tenth one was by eighteen. This team is absolutely

673
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 3: crazy right now, so I say, why not my other

674
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 3: favorite faves guys Yale at Brown is what I looked at.

675
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 3: I think Yale's just a different class of the Ivys.

676
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,520
Speaker 3: We'll talk about the Ivy's little later in the spotlight section.

677
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 3: And then finally, Jim, how about Florida and minus seven

678
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,760
Speaker 3: per kempom hosting Georgia an angry Gator squad in a

679
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 3: high possession game. Could call it a spot if you want,

680
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:25,640
Speaker 3: but it's a favorite favorite of mine.

681
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm all over Florida.

682
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,600
Speaker 1: I am very curious to see what the number is

683
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,080
Speaker 1: going to end up there, But man, it's a home

684
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 1: run spot. Angry after the close loss at missoo their

685
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: own one conference play, you get one and oh, Georgia

686
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 1: coming to town, who just won an overtime, insane, dramatic

687
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 1: game against Auburn. Florida lost at Georgia last year where

688
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: they got down big, came all the way back and

689
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: couldn't quite get over the hump at the end despite

690
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: having a thirteen oh run in the final five minutes

691
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: to take the lead. Georgia ended up with the win.

692
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 1: I think that's a great great spot for Florida. I

693
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,320
Speaker 1: think they went by double digits. I'll lay up to gosh,

694
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: let's say nine there.

695
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 5: So I'll take the Gators. I know Georgia is better

696
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 5: than I expected.

697
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:10,560
Speaker 1: Syrilla is a total freak, like that guy is basically

698
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: Jalen Durhan all over again from Memphis, Like just versatile, athletic,

699
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: all over the glass. But Florida can match that front

700
00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 1: court tenacity in size.

701
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 5: And I will just sit here.

702
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 1: And stubbornly think that someday Xavingly and Boogie Fland will

703
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 1: make open threes.

704
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 5: They bricked eight ton of them against Miszoo.

705
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: But man, I just I can't feasibly see this team

706
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: continue to shoot this poorly all season.

707
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 5: It's a really good spot for them. So I like

708
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 5: them there.

709
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,200
Speaker 1: And yes, I will take Michigan enough to minus twenty five,

710
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 1: because why the hell not?

711
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 5: How is Penn State stopping that team? I have no

712
00:31:42,640 --> 00:31:43,400
Speaker 5: idea how they're not.

713
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 4: Matt Yeah, Penn State's like kind of like Utah last year,

714
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 4: Fresno this year like long but super slow and just

715
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 4: really bad defensively, Like just having a positionally big team

716
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,320
Speaker 4: does not make you good defensively. I think Michigan completely

717
00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 4: exposed that. To take that, Beau, I'm always too scared

718
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 4: to lay big numbers. I like your yaling Kui. Nothing official,

719
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 4: but that's probably my strongest, most conviction Florida thing. Keep

720
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 4: an eye on this Serrill. I know he got it

721
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 4: injured late in that game. I don't know if it's

722
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 4: going to keep him out, but obviously that's game. He

723
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,200
Speaker 4: came back in, right. Just something to keep an eye

724
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,720
Speaker 4: on there, because yeah, without him, uh talk about a

725
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 4: major edge in the front court for the Gators. But

726
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 4: even with him, I think the experience I think is

727
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 4: thet The sheer, girth and physicality could bother Serrill and

728
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,560
Speaker 4: frankly behind him. I know Absen has been good, but

729
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 4: but still that Florida should have an edge on the

730
00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 4: glass in that one.

731
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, call out Florida. Fishill play for me as well.

732
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 3: Like Jim mentioned, probably till nine nine is probably number lane.

733
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 3: Devils is tough. I think George is very good this year,

734
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 3: but this this game is gonna be high possession a

735
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 3: lot of points, all right. That was Favorite Favorites presented

736
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 3: by DraftKings. We move on to the spots section. The

737
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 3: Missouri Valley spots last week fell as that we mentioned

738
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 3: for money. In fact, there are four and h against

739
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 3: the spread. That was the zero to two teams against

740
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 3: the two to oh teams SIU, Evansville, Indiana State and

741
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 3: Valpo all came through if you went with that trend.

742
00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 3: The other summary there, Marquette still sucks. They did not

743
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 3: get done against Seaton Hall. Hey covered to day against

744
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 3: Yukon I think barely. So the Golden Eagles getting on

745
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 3: the board. Congrats. Spots this week fellas we mentioned Rutgers.

746
00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 3: It's intriguing with the Ducks their second game on the

747
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 3: East coast. The West coast teams the Big ten really

748
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 3: did kind of shit the bed in these spots last year.

749
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 3: Now they already won their first game. It's Maryland that

750
00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 3: Bucks had trend a little bit, but I have to

751
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 3: think it takes its toll. Like Matt like Jim said Tuesday,

752
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 3: Nevada hosting San Diego State after the Aztec emotional three

753
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 3: overtime winning against Boise. We mentioned Florida above, Matt likes

754
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 3: a and m I like Auburn minus six per kimpom

755
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 3: the one to one hosting the one to no SEC team.

756
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,479
Speaker 3: I think Auburn is actually pretty good. I am very

757
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 3: skeptical that A and M is any good this season.

758
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 3: They got an injured LSU team and couldn't get away

759
00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 3: from them. Those are mine, Jim, But have any other

760
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 3: other ones to add on the spots? Do you like those?

761
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:04,760
Speaker 3: What do you say?

762
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 5: I'm very much on your corner with with Auburn.

763
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 1: Matt I guess I see the high variants ups and

764
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: downs in Texas A and M, but I like the

765
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 1: on to one want to know Auburn back home. I

766
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: think that's a really good spot for the Tigers in

767
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 1: the jungle, that that's where tex Sam could make four

768
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: threes and get get blown out.

769
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 5: That they're just so up and down. I love the

770
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 5: Oklahoma State spot.

771
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 1: I will be betting than them. They are minus one

772
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 1: per Ken Palm. They just lost to Texas Tech that

773
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: insane shooting game. The Red Raiders just rain down fire

774
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,240
Speaker 1: from beyond the arc. UCF is off a court storm

775
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: against Texas and now they have to go to Stillwater,

776
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:45,320
Speaker 1: Oklahoma midweek on a Tuesday. I love Oklahoma State there, Matthew.

777
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,719
Speaker 1: I think UCF is riding way too high, so I'm

778
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: going to lock that in officially. Oklahma State also a

779
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: little bit healthier than they have been in recent in

780
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,319
Speaker 1: recent games. The other one I'm thinking about is Wisconsin

781
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,560
Speaker 1: minus two against UCLA. They just got thrashed in the

782
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: second hand by Purdue. I know, issconsin's a mess, but

783
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 1: so is UCLA right now. And you know mccronin loves

784
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: to have an excuse to wine, and if they get

785
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,200
Speaker 1: swept in a central time zone road trip, he'll have

786
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 1: plenty to talk about in the press conference after. I

787
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: just don't trust Wisconsin's athleticism and skill beyond blackwell beyond Boyd,

788
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:20,399
Speaker 1: So I'm going.

789
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 5: To stay away from that.

790
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 1: I think it's worth looking at for some people if

791
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:26,000
Speaker 1: you're a little more of a believer in the Badgers

792
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:26,359
Speaker 1: than I am.

793
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:27,520
Speaker 5: But for me, I mean it was a stick with

794
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 5: that Oklahoma State spot.

795
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,759
Speaker 4: I think that's the best pure spot Oklahoma State's defense, really,

796
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,640
Speaker 4: but I think that was a miss in my handicap.

797
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 4: They you look at who they didn't play anybody actually

798
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 4: legitimate offensively, and I know Texas Tech shot the lights out,

799
00:35:42,840 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 4: but man, I thought they were all over the place,

800
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 4: like very discombobulated kind of what we saw with lots

801
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 4: of defense last year, so that was concerning. I do

802
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 4: think that's a great spot though. You know, I'll just

803
00:35:52,719 --> 00:35:54,040
Speaker 4: add one more to the list KaiA and not an

804
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:58,479
Speaker 4: official play for me, but close Minnesota against Iowa at home.

805
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 4: I know Iowa coming off that it felt like a

806
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 4: big game for Iowa, like they like that was a

807
00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 4: ruckus crowd, played awesome in the first half, had to

808
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 4: kind of with stand a late run from UCLA. Minnis

809
00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:10,239
Speaker 4: always been kind of feisty.

810
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 3: You know.

811
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 4: I think at home the Barn kay As you know,

812
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 4: you're a big Barn guy. You know, it could be

813
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:16,600
Speaker 4: kind of a householders for teams that come a little

814
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 4: bit sluggish. I think the this could be a Nico

815
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 4: Medvet special. This game is very close. Obviously talent gap

816
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 4: is not substantial here either. So yeah, I mentioned one more.

817
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, Jim, it's Wednesday.

818
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 1: But just because I talked about the ucf off the

819
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,480
Speaker 1: court storm, I think SMU court stormed against UNC.

820
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 4: I'm not positive, yes, but they did.

821
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 5: They go to Clemson.

822
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 1: It was also SMU's first Q one win in like

823
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,800
Speaker 1: three calendar years. I think there could be a letdown

824
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 1: coming there against a veteran Tiger team. So just for

825
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,840
Speaker 1: people on Wednesday handicapping, I don't.

826
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:52,240
Speaker 4: Know, and Duke is on deck two to follow on Saturday, Jim.

827
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 3: So, wow, spot for Clemson there, good eye boys, way

828
00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 3: to watch the ball. I am adding Auburn and Florida

829
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,560
Speaker 3: as official to my Oh excuse me, and Oklahoma State

830
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 3: already added Florida. Jim convinced me, Oklahoma State.

831
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:06,839
Speaker 5: I'm in Cowboys, Let's do it.

832
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:13,880
Speaker 3: I'm in Okay trash section. What's that smell? It stings mean?

833
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,880
Speaker 3: This trash, the sweet sweet trash.

834
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 4: The trash is a gold mine, old mine.

835
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 3: Last week, we chose Delaware State in Rutgers. Dell State

836
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 3: covered against Rutgers. So congrats to the Hornets on that

837
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 3: game this week. Not really many choices on Monday Tuesday. Again,

838
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 3: it's a really it's a beautiful Monday Tuesday slate. I

839
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 3: chose Georgetown to Paul Fellows just because these teams are sad.

840
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,880
Speaker 3: The programs still remain in misery. They're both outside the

841
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:43,240
Speaker 3: top one hundred. Again, Matt my Gut says Georgetown actually

842
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 3: gets this one done. Obviously, both teams are pretty desperate. Hey,

843
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,600
Speaker 3: de Paul just covered as a favorite against against Xavier.

844
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 3: I don't see him doing it again. You give me

845
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:54,040
Speaker 3: three points, I'm taking the Hoys.

846
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 4: I'm gonna I think back to Paul a few more

847
00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 4: times this year. I think there's like against those teams

848
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,600
Speaker 4: the Big East, which I would call Georgetown frankly one

849
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 4: of those teams. At this point, We'll see if the

850
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 4: Evince Iwuchuku makes a impact or turning. It seems like

851
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 4: they miss him a ton. I didn't think they they'd

852
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 4: be okay without him, but Georgetown clearly has not been

853
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 4: the same with without his services. I think De Paul

854
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 4: wins this game. I think De Paul against Georgetown, Xavier, Marquette,

855
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 4: and I might even put Butler in that mix. And

856
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 4: if they keep trying in the wrong direction, I think

857
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 4: they're gonna be a kind of a sneaky middle tier

858
00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 4: Big East team as the schedule plays out, which isn't

859
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 4: sane much this year, obviously, but.

860
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,640
Speaker 1: This is perfect where both teams are like the very

861
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,560
Speaker 1: top heavy rosters, like I like the top three on

862
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:44,600
Speaker 1: both teams. Yeah, and I'm not sure how invested the

863
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,959
Speaker 1: team is in like actually having success in this Big

864
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: East season. Right now, I'm gonna stay away from this one.

865
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 1: Kay Ita is truly trashy. I don't have a great

866
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 1: angle on it. Iwachuku returning would matter. I don't know

867
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: if he's going to be back. I would keep monitoring that.

868
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,839
Speaker 1: But Paul is missing their Keith freshman Cruz McClure last game,

869
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 1: so it's still.

870
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,280
Speaker 5: Impressive that they were able to take care of Xavier

871
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 5: without him. But it really for them.

872
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: It just comes down to how well do gun Blocker

873
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,919
Speaker 1: and Benson play like that's in their whole game.

874
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:13,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, a Leen Hoy is there for me. Nothing official.

875
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 3: That's the trash Okay Spotlight section the finishers out fellas

876
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 3: for this week. I chose the IVY League because it's atypical.

877
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 3: They play on Mondays. They do it a couple times

878
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,760
Speaker 3: per year, this year a little bit more. But conference

879
00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 3: play starts on Monday. Just a quick snapshot of the

880
00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 3: league and might I might ask you guys, a couple

881
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 3: teams you're watching or themes you're watching overarching stories for

882
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 3: this conference play setting the scene really quick. Yale by

883
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 3: far the best team, fifty spots ahead of the next

884
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 3: team in kim Pom projected to win the league by

885
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 3: a couple of games. They are the class of this conference,

886
00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,320
Speaker 3: and I think they're going to do very very well

887
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 3: against the number as well in this league, So keep

888
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:50,359
Speaker 3: an eye on them again. We kind of like them

889
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,439
Speaker 3: against Brown on Monday. Princeton is the best ATS team

890
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 3: in ten and four, but they have a negative one

891
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,720
Speaker 3: point cover margin. It's like skin of the teeth every game. However,

892
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 3: I've watched this team for some reason the last couple

893
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,359
Speaker 3: of games. They're young, they can shoot. I think they're

894
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 3: going to be really good once they're healthy. This is

895
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 3: a riser for me. They're the second worst team in

896
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 3: this league for Kimpom. I think they really rise up

897
00:40:11,880 --> 00:40:14,240
Speaker 3: the rankings and I think jen they keep covering games.

898
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to betting on Princeton probably a fair

899
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,080
Speaker 1: amount in league play. I think Dale Davis should be

900
00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 1: back fairly soon. He's like their most veteran consistent scorering creator,

901
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 1: and him being out has actually allowed a lot of

902
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: those young guys to figure out roles and even the

903
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,080
Speaker 1: preseason Henderson, especially with Kaden Pierce sitting out xaving Lee transferring.

904
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 5: Mitch Henderson was.

905
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 1: Like, we're going to experiment in an uncon like I

906
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,719
Speaker 1: am going to figure out what lineups work play a

907
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 1: bunch of different guys, and he's done that, and remarkably

908
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:42,440
Speaker 1: they are ten and four ATS. I kind of thought

909
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,480
Speaker 1: they were a fade in the non con as you mentioned,

910
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,160
Speaker 1: they have barely hung on in a few I think

911
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:47,840
Speaker 1: you see them.

912
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:49,399
Speaker 5: Charge forward a little bit in league play.

913
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 1: They've got penn on Monday looking at that line at

914
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 1: DraftKings and it's Princeton minus one and a half with

915
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 1: juice heavily on that minus one eighteen. I'm probably going

916
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: to bet it's been there. I want to see if

917
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,040
Speaker 1: Dylan Davis plays, but even without him, I might like

918
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:03,720
Speaker 1: one and a half.

919
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 4: I actually have a bet here Monday as well, like

920
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:07,799
Speaker 4: Cornell mister my Kean or.

921
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,480
Speaker 3: He's gonna mention Cornell, Matthew Cornell actually league worst ATS

922
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 3: team four and seven, but awesome offense, terrible defense.

923
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 4: Go ahead, there's no I'm not seeing a lineup from

924
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:20,120
Speaker 4: DK yet. I'm guessing it's going to be around two.

925
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:22,720
Speaker 4: Columbia has been terrific. This is kind of a battle

926
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 4: of one team is a dominates the turnover or in

927
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,120
Speaker 4: any of the other team dominates the glass, right, So

928
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 4: if if the if the Big Red, can you know,

929
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 4: hold their own on the boards, which they you know,

930
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,319
Speaker 4: they haven't really been as good this year. They just

931
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:39,320
Speaker 4: they lost some key bodies the last couple of seasons.

932
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 4: But then Columbia has not been great holding onto the

933
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 4: basketball either, so they've sort of been careless. And I

934
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,920
Speaker 4: think with Cornell's pressure, while it's not as I think

935
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:49,759
Speaker 4: suffocating as it has been in years past, I think

936
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 4: that's gonna be the key tug of war here four pm.

937
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:55,200
Speaker 4: Tip kai early start, maybe a slide edge to the

938
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 4: home team here, kind of unorthodox, kind of shotgun start.

939
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 4: I think the big Red back at home. They've been

940
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 4: away from like three straight weeks, crazy schedule. I think

941
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:06,560
Speaker 4: they get this one done.

942
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:08,879
Speaker 5: I agree. Oh I want to go ahead.

943
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 1: Okay, one did TOOI Columbia, Columbia, baby, yeah, put it

944
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:13,360
Speaker 1: on the board.

945
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take it.

946
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,160
Speaker 3: Columbia biggest surprise in the league. So Kevin Hovey their

947
00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:20,560
Speaker 3: new coach, the former Florida assistant. He's been awesome. Uh.

948
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 3: They have a five point six cover margin right now

949
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 3: average cover margin, so they've been great. And they're up

950
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:26,919
Speaker 3: to number two in kim Pom in the IVY League.

951
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 3: So rebounding Juggernauts. Matt mentioned their top thirty five and

952
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,800
Speaker 3: both the Sun offensive defense really really fun team this season.

953
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 3: So yeah, gems on Columbia Matt and Kai leaning towards Cornell.

954
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,640
Speaker 3: There other teams in this league really quick. Brown has

955
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:44,719
Speaker 3: actually had the best cover margin per game this year

956
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 3: at eight points, which is crazy. Defense is there is

957
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,399
Speaker 3: the name of their game. They're the least fun team

958
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,839
Speaker 3: to watch, I would say in the IVY. Dartmouth is

959
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 3: the worst team in the league, but they shoot a

960
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:55,919
Speaker 3: ton of threes, the number three three point and tenth

961
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 3: rate in the country. And then Penn Fellas looks pretty

962
00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 3: feisty despite losing everyone. Fran McCaffrey's in charge of that program.

963
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,839
Speaker 3: Now they need Ethan Roberts back. TJ Power clearly found

964
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,280
Speaker 3: his level after failing at Duke in Virginia. Finally Harvard

965
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:12,120
Speaker 3: they brought everyone back, but there's no depth. Three hundred

966
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 3: and fifty first in the country and bench minutes. It's

967
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 3: a high variance team that I think will pull some

968
00:43:16,760 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 3: haymakers and beat some good teams in this conference. But

969
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 3: also Jim Lucid Dartmouth. Any closing thoughts from you on

970
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 3: the IVY, Any of those teams.

971
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm trying to decide if I'm gonna be a

972
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: buyer on Brown. With Landon Lewis back, he's played seven

973
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:35,840
Speaker 1: games now, including a couple of non d ones, He's

974
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:37,760
Speaker 1: a real difference maker. They were kind of thin inside

975
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 1: with him back. I mean, they competed the whole length

976
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 1: of the way at Providence. I kind of I think

977
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:47,160
Speaker 1: they're feisty. I think the defense travels. They've got size.

978
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:48,399
Speaker 5: Typically Martin's built.

979
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:50,759
Speaker 1: This is like will be the most athletic team in

980
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:53,719
Speaker 1: the IVY, and maybe they're not quite that right now,

981
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 1: but they've got a lot of size, a lot of physicality,

982
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 1: and Jenkins is a really talented sophomore point guard that

983
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,000
Speaker 1: is already way better than he was last year, and

984
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:02,120
Speaker 1: I think he'll keep improving.

985
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 4: I think, in general, a lot of parody Kai, because

986
00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,480
Speaker 4: I think Darbutt will be you know, they were kind

987
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 4: of a darling last year too. They're not as good

988
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,160
Speaker 4: last year, but McLoughlin always kind of ramps up for

989
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:16,840
Speaker 4: conference play. I think you're gonna see some conversions Yale, Columbia,

990
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:21,799
Speaker 4: Cornell probably losing, you know, anywhere like the five Yale.

991
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:23,600
Speaker 4: I guess he's Pride exception, but think there's gonna be

992
00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:26,720
Speaker 4: a little bit of a conversions there, a mushy middle

993
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 4: of the standings. Hopefully that gives you opportunities to bet

994
00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:32,880
Speaker 4: some dogs in some good spots as they fight for

995
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:36,640
Speaker 4: that top four spot. In Ivy Madness, love.

996
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,160
Speaker 3: It all right. That was the IVY. That was the podcast.

997
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 3: A quick recap of our bets this week. I got

998
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:46,760
Speaker 3: Louisville against Duke. I got South Carolina against LSU, Florida

999
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:50,120
Speaker 3: hosting Georgia in a big bounce back spot, Auburn hosting

1000
00:44:50,160 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 3: Texas A and M in a big bounce bounce back spot,

1001
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:56,759
Speaker 3: and then Oklahoma State on taking against UCF after the

1002
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,440
Speaker 3: Knights just rushed the court against the Kansas Jayhawks.

1003
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:02,959
Speaker 1: Jim own to you, I went four and one last week,

1004
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 1: So good job folks, good job hop On.

1005
00:45:05,400 --> 00:45:05,800
Speaker 5: But I got it.

1006
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 1: I get when it goes well, you mentioned it. When

1007
00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 1: you don't go on doesn't go well, you ignore the record. Yeah,

1008
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 1: I'm going to USC and Michigan State under one hundred

1009
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:17,080
Speaker 1: and fifty point five on Monday, but then Florida up

1010
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 1: to minus nine. I'm going to ride with Michigan up

1011
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 1: to minus twenty five. I just don't think I have

1012
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: a proper number on this team. I think Penn State's

1013
00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 1: going to struggle badly to get any stops neck game.

1014
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 1: So I ride with the big favorite, South Carolina down

1015
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:33,719
Speaker 1: to nine. I hope Deedon Thomas doesn't play for LSU.

1016
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:34,799
Speaker 5: Can of figure that out?

1017
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 1: Oklaoma State with you as well. Just think it's a

1018
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,040
Speaker 1: home run spot for them. And then my head to

1019
00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 1: head against the boys Colombia plus one. That's the the

1020
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 1: Ken Palm line. There's no official line from DraftKings yet

1021
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 1: on Monday, but I will take the Lions against Cornell.

1022
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 4: Let's go to war gym. Cornell is my one of

1023
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 4: my five. I have them Nebraski, Louisville, Charleston, and then

1024
00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 4: a small little sprinkle on Texas A and M money line.

1025
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,800
Speaker 4: I think the second best bet there is Auburn spread.

1026
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:10,120
Speaker 4: The worst bet is A and M spread A and

1027
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 4: M wins or Auburn by thirty know in between.

1028
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:17,040
Speaker 3: Love it, Maddi contrurion, Okay, that does it. Thank you
