1 00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:03,840 Speaker 1: Hello, friends, and welcome into Betting pros is twenty twenty 2 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 1: three Bold Challenge Episode. I'm your host, Thorne Eistrom, joined 3 00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 1: by my good friends Mike Farrell and Eric Froton. Today 4 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: we're going to be running through every ball game on 5 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 1: the card and we're going to give you our confidence 6 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:19,080 Speaker 1: points on each and every one. Since we have forty 7 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: two ball games to get to, let's get right into it, 8 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 1: starting with the Myrtle Beach poll between Ohio and Georgia Southern. 9 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 2: Forroton, who you got? 10 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:30,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going with Georgia Southern. This is actually a 11 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 3: game with a three and a half point spread to 12 00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:35,320 Speaker 3: the Eagles, and I think a lot of that has 13 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 3: to do with the defections for Ohio. See both if 14 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 3: starting running backs O'shawn Allison and Cee Bengura are in 15 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,599 Speaker 3: the portal, as is their top receiver Miles Cross. So 16 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 3: you know, you throw in some rumors with Curtis Rourke 17 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 3: as well, and you have a recipe for a unsettled 18 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 3: situation in that offense. 19 00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 4: So I'm going to go with the high flying Eagles. 20 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: Cover with how many points? 21 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 3: Three and a half points? I'm going eleven points of 22 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 3: confidence points. Excuse me, the not the spread parl opposite. 23 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 5: I don't like the way Georgia Southern finished the season. 24 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 5: I know Ohio's missing a lot of players, but I'm 25 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 5: going to go with a thirty point confidence level that 26 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,400 Speaker 5: this is straight up. Remember this isn't for you know, 27 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 5: the spread or any core. I was gonna win this game. 28 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 5: Georgia Southern sunk down the stretch. I don't think they're 29 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 5: playing for play anymore. 30 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 2: Wow, going with Ohio? 31 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm going with Georgia Southern as well because of 32 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: the defections on the Ohio side. We'll have to see, 33 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: you know, the backup quarterback. We get there, and then 34 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:40,960 Speaker 1: they're going to be down to there. It looks like 35 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: they're third and four string running backs who basically didn't 36 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: play this year. For those reasons, I have to got 37 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,279 Speaker 1: Georgia Southern. I'm actually gonna give this one thirty seven 38 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: points and put some confidence behind the fighting. Clay Hilton's 39 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: our next ball game, this celebration ball same day, Saturday, 40 00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: December twenty six. This one's a noon eastern kickoff. We 41 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: got we got Florida, Florida A and M against Howard 42 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 1: for a time who you got in this one. 43 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've got Howard on this one, and I have 44 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 3: it for very low. I think I have it for 45 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 3: two confidence points. Reason being is this is an FCS 46 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 3: game and I don't know very much about the FCS, 47 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 3: So I am going to go with low confidence points 48 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 3: and take Howard here. 49 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 5: I'm going low to I'm gonna go with a three 50 00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 5: confidence point here, but I'm going to Florida A and M. 51 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go. 52 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Florida A and M as well 53 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: seven point favor right now in the market. So I 54 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: got to toss thirty one confidence points on this one. 55 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: We're gonna load up a little bit at the beginning. 56 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 1: Another December sixteenth game. New Orleans ball Louisiana with their 57 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 1: quasi home field in this game taking on the fighting 58 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: rich Rods at Jacksonville State. 59 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 2: What do you like in this one for a time? Oh? 60 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean this is a game that everybody who's 61 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 3: a fantasy enthusiast in the college realm enjoys because Rich 62 00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 3: Rod is leading the Jacksonville State team here. This is 63 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 3: a three point spread. I am putting twenty three points 64 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 3: on it. I'm taking Jasonville State in their eighteenth ranked 65 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 3: run defense to Stemy Louisiana. 66 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 5: I'm taking Jacksonville State too. I'm only putting seventeen on it. 67 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 5: But I'll take Rich Rodd in this game. I mean, 68 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 5: he's a great coach, He'll have him prepared. 69 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna disagree with you guys in this one. I'm 70 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: gonna go Louisiana playing close to home. I'm gonna give 71 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: it fourteen points for their raging cagens. Maybe maybe the 72 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: fighting Ridge rodds run out of a little bit of 73 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: steam here going over to Louisian into Louisiana's backyard on 74 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: that one. Next one, Saturday, December sixteenth, the cure ball 75 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: Appalachian State and Miami of Ohio. Kind of an interesting 76 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: matchup here between G five teams. What do you like 77 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: in this one? Proton, Yeah, we. 78 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 3: Gotta spread five and a half points for the favorite 79 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 3: Appalachian State and that is also my pick. I'm gonna 80 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 3: put fifteen confidence points on it. Avion Smith is in 81 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: the portal now for Miami. Obviously, le Bret Gabbett was 82 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: injured early in the season. This Happy State team obviously 83 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 3: lost to Troy State in the SBC bow Uh you know, 84 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 3: conference championship. But I do think they will have enough 85 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 3: to take out the Miami Ohio RedHawks. 86 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,920 Speaker 5: I'm going coaching here. I love the job they've done 87 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 5: up in Miami Ohio. I think he's the national Coach 88 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 5: of the Year candidate. Of course. I just think he 89 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 5: finds a way to win. And I don't trust that state. 90 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 5: They screwed me a few times this season. So I'm 91 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 5: going thirty five on Miami o Ohio. 92 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: Oh wow, okay, yeah going, I'm going farah, We're going 93 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: heads up again. I'm gonna go with that be on 94 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: this one as well. I'm going to go with thirty 95 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,359 Speaker 1: confidence points on it. And a big part of the 96 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: reason is Avion Smith being out because of course you 97 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: have Gabbert injured. Miami did get some good news with 98 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: gage Larbadaye and said he was coming back next year 99 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: probably their best offensive player, and Matt Solipak also did. 100 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: Matt Celipek was the MAC Defensive Player of the Year. 101 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: He's had one hundred plus tackles last three seasons. But 102 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: falling down to your QB three in this game. Henry Hassan, I. 103 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 2: Believe it is his name. 104 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 5: She is where guys become stars. 105 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: Do you think, Hassan, this this is his moment, This 106 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 2: is it. 107 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 5: I mean, that's where we discover a new guys. 108 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see his first pass attempt of that game 109 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: is going to be his first pass attempt this year. 110 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: He had five last year. But because of that, I 111 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 2: gotta go. 112 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: I gotta go the other side with this one with 113 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: Appy State, and yeah, we're putting thirty confidence points on 114 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: that one. We got several games to kick us off 115 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: here on Saturday the sixteenth, another one here at the 116 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 1: New Mexico Ball New Mexico State staying close to home 117 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: in this one, the fighting Jerry Kills. Can they bounce 118 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: back from their disappointment against Liberty in the CUSA title 119 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 1: game taking on Fresno State who Froton, as you know, 120 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: is going to be playing in this game without Jeff Tedford, 121 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: who announced that he's going to be taking a leave 122 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: of absence here just through the ball game, I think, 123 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: is what's been reported to tend to his health. 124 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 2: What do you like in this game? 125 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 3: Yeah? With New Mexico State favored by three points at 126 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 3: the current moment. As you mentioned the fighting Jerry Kills, 127 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 3: you being a Minnesota guy, big fan obviously of the 128 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 3: New Mexico State program under mister Kill. I do like 129 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 3: what you know we've seen from them. Obviously wasn't the 130 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 3: result they wanted in the CUSA Championship game against you know, 131 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 3: a pretty pretty formidable Liberty team. But I do think 132 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,600 Speaker 3: they've got enough to take up for Resnel State. I'm 133 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,360 Speaker 3: gonna put twenty five points on the Aggies. 134 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 5: I'm putting thirty seven on the Eggies. I love, you know, 135 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 5: this coaching matchup isn't a coaching matchup now, I mean 136 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 5: Ted Frits gone Presno State has been a ratic off season. 137 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 5: I love the job. Kill should have been in the 138 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 5: national coaching Coach of the Year consideration as well. He 139 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 5: just didn't make up a list. But yeah, give me, 140 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 5: give me Jerry Kill. I know they just wanted, you know, 141 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 5: in the championship game, but they're gonna win this one. 142 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,840 Speaker 5: Thirty seven for New Mexico State to win out right. 143 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: That's it's gonna make three of us. I'm also on 144 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: New Mexico State here. I'm only going to give it five. 145 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 1: And the only reason for that that I didn't have 146 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: a higher is because I don't know the status yet. 147 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: At Diego. 148 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: Pavia, you know, he's been playing hurt all year, then 149 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: he gets knocked out of the cust title game. Jerry 150 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: Kill on Monday, I believe it was said that he 151 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: was cautiously optimistic that Pavia plays in this game. He 152 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: Pavi at the end of the season with shoulder injury, 153 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: but Kill said during that press conference that he had 154 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 1: played through all these other injuries during the season. Kill 155 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: usually doesn't talk about injuries at all, so I thought 156 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: it was pretty telling that he did that. It looks 157 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: like if Pavia missed this game, that would be Eli Stowers, 158 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: the guy who got forced into the CUSA game after 159 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: their other quarterback plays. Berkowitz suffered none disclosed injury. Stowers 160 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: wasn't even supposed to play in that game because he 161 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: was sick, but he basically got forced in because they 162 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: were an emergency thing. 163 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: If I knew Pavi was going to play in this game, 164 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 2: I'd have it way higher. 165 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: But just because of that trepidation, I'm going to put 166 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: them at five confidence points for that one. Now we're 167 00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 1: moving into Saturday night on the sixteenth with the Jimmy 168 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: Kimmel LA Ball. We have UCLA playing close to home, 169 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: in this one hosting Boise State. Boise State has got 170 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: some quarterback questions Forroton. You know that their starter had 171 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: gotten hurt mid November. Maddox Madson and then Taylon Green 172 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: took over the last couple of games. Along with the 173 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: firing of Andy Avolos, the interim collech Spencer Danielson had 174 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: the interim tag removed here in the last couple of days. 175 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: But the quarterback question with Boise State, who is going 176 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: to go in this one? Taylon Green announced he was 177 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: entering the portal. It's not Teylon. It's certainly not going 178 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: to be Maddox Madson, who was out for the season. 179 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: Boise State would be down to their third string quarterback. 180 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: Do you think that matters here for Roton and who 181 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: he got? 182 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, I can guarantee you won't be Maddox Madison because 183 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:47,199 Speaker 3: I was at the Boise State UNLV game in Las Vegas, 184 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 3: so I was personally on the field and saw Maddox mats. 185 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 3: He is on crutches and he will not be coming 186 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 3: through the door, and neither will Taylor Green. So as 187 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 3: you as discussed, you know we're gonna be going pretty 188 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 3: far down the depth chart for Boise State. This is 189 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 3: only a three point spread in favor of UCLA right now. 190 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 3: I see that climbing in the coming days, you know, 191 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 3: and as this game approaches once kind of everybody catches 192 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 3: up to what's going on with Boise State right now, 193 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 3: especially after firing Andy Avolos. So that is a team 194 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 3: that's in transition, whereas you have the fully formed UCLA team. 195 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 3: People thought maybe no Chip Kelly, but he's still around, 196 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 3: so business as usual Ucla. I'm gonna take the Bruins 197 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 3: with thirty two points. 198 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 5: I'm taking Boise State. I'm only putting ten on it, 199 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 5: but I like the way they've been playing down the 200 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,719 Speaker 5: stretch here. There's a lot of internal stuff going on 201 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,680 Speaker 5: at UCLA. A lot of people are unhappy Chips back, 202 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 5: So I'm going to say they're a little bit in 203 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 5: in a chaotic situation. Now I'm on bois. 204 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I'm gonna go with UCLA here. 205 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put twenty eight confidence points on it because 206 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 1: I do think we're gonna get the Boise State QB 207 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 1: three In this I will say, though, that Boise State 208 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: got good news when Ashu Genet in a surprise to 209 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: many announced it he was coming back to Boise State. 210 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: Sounds like he's going to play in this game, which 211 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: would get Boise State there one two running back combo 212 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: with Halani but without the quarterback. And then also Boise 213 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: State's got some wide receiver issues right now. Eric McAllister 214 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: he transferred out in November, like earlier on, he'd been 215 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: out for weeks. He's you know, for his next home whatever. 216 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: And then they got some injuries there as well. Stephen 217 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: Cobbs is out for the season. Chase Penry's questionable in 218 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 1: this one. They were already missing Latrell Caples for the 219 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: entire season. So just because of my trepidations about the 220 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 1: passing game of Boise State, I gotta go with UCLA 221 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,719 Speaker 1: in this one for twenty eight points. One thing to 222 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: keep an eye on with UCLA. Their stud edge rusher 223 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 1: Leatu Latu was the PAC twelve Defensive Player of the 224 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,840 Speaker 1: Year this past year. Is considering an opt out. Chip 225 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: Kelly said that he's going to be talking to him 226 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: in the coming days to get it, you know, to 227 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,959 Speaker 1: the family and stuff like that, and he Chip said 228 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 1: that he's going to let the kid make the decision 229 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 1: and they're going to respect the decision, but we're going 230 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 1: to get an announcement on that pretty soon. But obviously 231 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: a good player there. But either way, gonna go to UCLA. 232 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: Our next one, the Independence Ball, the Lake Kick on 233 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: December sixteenth. On that Saturday, we got Texas Tech and 234 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: California here, kind of an interesting matchup of kind of 235 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: mid tier P five programs. 236 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 2: What do you think about this one for a time? 237 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is another It seems like we've got a 238 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 3: lot of three point spreads here and Texas Tech is 239 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 3: a three point favorite in this picular game against Cal. 240 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 3: And this is a cal team that actually, you know, 241 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 3: finished the season pretty well. They started out slow, you know, 242 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 3: without a doubt, but you've on they lost to USC 243 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 3: had eighty six percent win expectancy and that's pretty done good, 244 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,719 Speaker 3: and then swept Washington State, Stanford, and UCLA over the 245 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 3: last MAX game, Ucla and now handled La considerably. I'm 246 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 3: gonna take Cal here, I'm gonna I'm gonna take them 247 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 3: for twenty two points. 248 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 4: Since I like the trajectory of this program right. 249 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 5: Now, I'm only going to take fifteen points on this one. 250 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go to Texas Tech. I like only I 251 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 5: know they started off the season rough. I know they've 252 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 5: got some guys that are probably gonna opt out and 253 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 5: hit in the portal. I like the way Cal finished, 254 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 5: but I still don't believe in that program in me, 255 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 5: Texas Tech. But I'm only go to fifteen points. 256 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna agree with Farrell in this one. I have 257 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: Tech for thirteen points. We have, you know, some opt 258 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: outs on both sides. Cal's going to be missing one 259 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: of their better linebackers Alarms or Texas Tech Miles Price. 260 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 1: Looks like they're gonna be missing him, and then as 261 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 1: starting offensive tackle as well. But Baron Morton he getting healthier. 262 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: You know, he was banged up and then they were 263 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: down to that that, you know, the true freshman. I 264 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: think Jake Strong is his name. Where Texas Tech really 265 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: struggled in the middle of the season. But a healthy 266 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: Baron Morton means you can throw a lot to see 267 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: about the status of Texas Tech style running back as well. 268 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: You know, he already talked about going to the NFL, 269 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 1: so he might be out for this game as well. 270 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,600 Speaker 1: But I just trust Tech a little bit more and 271 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna be able to throw on Cal 272 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: most teams have been able to. So I'm gonna go 273 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: with Tech for thirteen on that one. Now, moving on 274 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 1: to December eighteenth, the Monday two thirty eastern kickoff. On 275 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: this one, the famous Toastery ball. 276 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:12,559 Speaker 2: This one was moved back. 277 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: This was the one that was initially the Bahamas Ball, 278 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 1: and then they switched. 279 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 2: The date, switched to the locations. 280 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: Old Dominion in this one against Western Kentucky, All Dominion 281 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 1: is the favorite now in the market, a short one. 282 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:26,680 Speaker 2: But who do you like in this one for a time? 283 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, Old Dominion two and a half point favorites here now. 284 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,960 Speaker 3: And the reason why is because Western Kentucky's four of 285 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,839 Speaker 3: their starting offensive linemen who have at least six hundred 286 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 3: snaps are in the transfer portal right now. That's going 287 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 3: to be a problem obviously, since they're going to have 288 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 3: to protect, you know, their quarterback. And also what do 289 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 3: we get out of Malkai Corley? You know, does he declare, 290 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: does he play? Maybe maybe not. He's obviously the catalyst 291 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 3: of that offense. So with whether it be being some 292 00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 3: uncertainty with Western Kentucky, I would put twenty five points 293 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 3: on Old Dominion. 294 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 5: I'm putting twenty eight on old minion. There's gonna be 295 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 5: more opt outs for Western Kentucky, more guys hit in 296 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,400 Speaker 5: the portal, so I they go to you is gonna 297 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 5: win this. 298 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: I'm going out to you as well. 299 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: I'm only going for two confidence points, just waiting on 300 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: the statuses of Austin Reid and as fro time mentioned 301 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 1: Malachi Corley and for a time, would it be fair 302 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 1: to say to the audience that we're over being angry 303 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: at Western Kentucky staff for not letting Corley play in 304 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: the second half of that finale that cost us the 305 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: over on a season long yardage. 306 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 4: It would not be fair to say that we're over it. 307 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 3: No, I'm not okay it, are you? 308 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 2: I'm not. No, that's okay? 309 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 3: Good the entire second half. No, Malachi Corley I would 310 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 3: leave for him, and just for that site, I'm not. 311 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 5: Playing this game. I'm telling you, Yeah, why. 312 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 3: Would you play? 313 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: And then I wonder why they took him up for 314 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 1: the second half of that game cost us the over? 315 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: But we digress, Uh, moving on? Yeah, I gave my 316 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: pick all dominion too. The next day, Tuesday, December nineteenth, 317 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: the friscal ball Marshall is heading down into the backyard 318 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: of UTSA in this one. We got a bigger spread 319 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: on this one for a time. Does that mean more 320 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: confidence points for you? 321 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. I am not a fan of this 322 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 3: Marshall team. I mean you can see, like you know, 323 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 3: they started out winning their first four games and they 324 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 3: have I mean nothing short of a collapse since then 325 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 3: two and six, since their their hot start, and they're 326 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 3: playing a UTSA team. It's just been rock solid all 327 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,239 Speaker 3: year long, got better as the season went on. I'm 328 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 3: in hard on UTSA. This is a nine point spread 329 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 3: in favor of the roadrunners. I am putting thirty three 330 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 3: points on it. 331 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 5: I'm putting thirty two on UTSA. There's no chance Marshall 332 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 5: wins this. Although I probably should go higher, I'm gonna 333 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 5: go thirty two points UTSA. 334 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with thirty eight points on UTSA. You 335 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: guys mentioned I mean Marshall. Yeah, the way they played 336 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: this year, I some weirds going on with that program. 337 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 1: Charles Hoffwood like the up and coming star and then 338 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:03,800 Speaker 1: this year it just seemed like the team didn't even 339 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 1: want to be out there. They did win their last 340 00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: game to get here, to get to six and six, 341 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: to reach a Bowl Game, but you can't love the 342 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: way they're playing. They've already started to fire assistance on 343 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: the offensive side of the ball. We know the offensive 344 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 1: coordinat are gonna be next year because they've already hired them, 345 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: But who's gonna be calling plays in this one? And 346 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: the offense was lethargic and battle season. They're gonna be 347 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,680 Speaker 1: looking for a new quarterback I think in the portal 348 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: because of all that, and UTSA they have the veterans. 349 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: We haven't gotten the opt out news on those guys, 350 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: but maybe all those guys playing this one, you know, 351 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,320 Speaker 1: like guys like Frank Harras's not sure that they have 352 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: much of an NFL future. It's no real reason to 353 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: opt out. I think UTSA closer to home Dex Marshall 354 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: on that one. So I gave UTSA thirty eight Thursday, 355 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 1: December twenty first the Boca ratone ball. This one is Syracuse, 356 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: the P five team that got in by the skin 357 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: of their team. They're like the P five, Marshall. They're 358 00:16:55,520 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: traveling down into South Florida's backyard. Alex Gulish raid for 359 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: this year from Alex Goalsh. I wasn't sure about that 360 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: hire when South Florida went and hired Tennessee's offensive coordinator 361 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: who hadn't even called plays under Josh Hiball, but very 362 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: quickly turned South Florida around made him biable year one. 363 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 1: Now they're in a ballgame for a time. Did they 364 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: finish year one with a win over Syracuse an upset win? 365 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:18,919 Speaker 1: Or did Syracuse get back on track in the last 366 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 1: game of the Dino Babo's Dino Babers era. 367 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, they're favored by three and a half points, 368 00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 3: so apparently the market feels that way. We keep in mind, 369 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 3: you know, this is South Florida, They're playing in Boca Raton, 370 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 3: this is a de facto home game for the Bulls, 371 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 3: and they're playing a Syracuse team that gosh, as you mentioned, 372 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 3: they backed into the playoffs being able to make a 373 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 3: Bowl and just they only beat the bad teams on 374 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 3: their schedule, Colgate, Western, Michigan, Purdue, Army, Pitt, Wake Forest, 375 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 3: you know, anybody. Anytime they played somebody with any backbone, 376 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 3: they lost. Given this is a power five team playing 377 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 3: a G five team. But again, I just I like 378 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 3: what we saw from South Florida. They playing extremely fast. 379 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 3: Byron Brown College Fantasy Football legends, you know, top ten 380 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 3: QB for the scoring this year. I'm gonna go with 381 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 3: South Florida. I'm gonna put ten points, and I assume 382 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: you guys probably go the other way, but I'll try 383 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 3: to try to make up some ground there with this call. 384 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 5: I'm going to go four points on USF too. I 385 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 5: like the way they've been playing under goalish and I 386 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 5: like Fan Brown. I think he might be maybe a 387 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 5: little of her said, we'll see. He's going to improve 388 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 5: the talent on that roster, but it's going to take 389 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 5: some time. Syracuse forget about it USF. But only four points. 390 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 5: I have no idea what going. 391 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: This That makes it three for three on this upset pick. 392 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 1: I also like Sell Florida. I'm putting seven points on it. 393 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: Dono Babers talked at the middle of the season. You know, 394 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: Syracuse had their second straight late season collapse after they 395 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: started well, don know, Babers this time, all right, admit it. 396 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 1: We don't have the depth. Our depth is terrible. And 397 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: then you know, they lose, lose, lose, lose, lose. Then 398 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: they fire Babers. But then they win their last regular 399 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: season game, you know, so they qualify for the ball game. 400 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: But between the depth issues, between the opt outs that 401 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: they've already had, you know, it's like who's playing and 402 00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: then you know that for instance, Leon Lowry, one of 403 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 1: their starting edges, is out in this game, has opted 404 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: out for the transfer port up and the Babers the 405 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: last game. You don't know how engaged they're going to 406 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: be with USF running that quick, quick, quick tempo. I 407 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: don't know what Syracuse has the bodies for it, and 408 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: I think they might just wilt in the Florida heat 409 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 1: on that one. So I'm gonna go seven with South Florida. Friday, 410 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: December twenty second, the gas Barilla Ball got two P 411 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,199 Speaker 1: five ones in this one. 412 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 2: UCF, who I. 413 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: Think is laying four and a half in the market 414 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: right now, taken on Georgia Tech. Impressive showing for Georgia 415 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: Tech's first year college. Who do you like in this one? 416 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 3: For a ton Yeah, that's correct, four and a half 417 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 3: point favorites for UCF and with UCF, man, I was 418 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 3: just so impressed with how they finished the season one 419 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 3: three of their last four. But the thing is, even 420 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 3: when they lost UCF, you know they lost six games 421 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,679 Speaker 3: this year, those six games with those six losses. They 422 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,719 Speaker 3: only had one loss where they were below a fifty 423 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 3: six percent win expectancy, and that was against your boys, Kansas. 424 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 3: So you know, after the buy these last six games, 425 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 3: every single one, even the ones they've lost, they've been 426 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 3: there and they've outplayed the teams that they've been against. 427 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 3: I really like them. I'm putting twenty seven points on 428 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 3: UCF to beat a resurgent Georgia Tech, you know, to 429 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:26,479 Speaker 3: give them, give them props. 430 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 4: Good to see them in the bulls. 431 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm putting twenty two on UCF here. I think 432 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 5: GUS takes care of this. I'm still not sure Georgia 433 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 5: Tech has the right higher good job getting to a bowl, 434 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 5: but we'll see long term, and I think GUS is 435 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 5: you know, they adjusted to the Big twelve. It wasn't pretty. 436 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,399 Speaker 5: They just got a little bit the better the season 437 00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 5: went on, it seems. So I'm going to go twenty 438 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 5: two points to UF. 439 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:50,920 Speaker 2: I'm going to go twenty six points UCF. 440 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. I agree with what you guys are saying and UCF, like, 441 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,359 Speaker 1: I mean, for a time you were talking about it, 442 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: like they've been clicking. Even some of these games where 443 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: they've lost and they were the first team to expose 444 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: that that fraudulent Oklahoma State team did it. 445 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, just absolutely wallop. 446 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think Geordia Tech is going to have 447 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:13,800 Speaker 1: problems with the tempo UCF. This is another one that 448 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: down there in Florida. This one's at Raymond James Stadium. 449 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 1: Jeordia Tech is going to have to contend with the 450 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: play play play play play sprint back to the line, 451 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 1: play play play play play. I don't know how that's 452 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 1: going to go for him, So I gotta I gotta 453 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: go with UCF for for twenty six points in that one. 454 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: Before we get onto to our next one.

But you know they're playing at Detroit. 506 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 4: That for their part, I mean, they won the Sun 507 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 4: Belt Conference and they did it pretty convincingly. Over Applation 508 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 4: State won their last ten games, and in terms of defenses, 509 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 4: if it wasn't for James Madison, everybody'd be talking about 510 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,679 Speaker 4: Troy as being the premier group of five defense in 511 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 4: the country right now. I just think with all the 512 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 4: change over going on at Duke Riley, Leonard's out, you know, 513 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 4: everybek who's staying, who's going give me Troy seventeen points 514 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 4: is what I'm putting on this game. 515 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,639 Speaker 5: I'm going forty Troy. This is salac I mean, this 516 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:39,120 Speaker 5: is everything a Duke has, you know, falling apart. It's 517 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,120 Speaker 5: a mess, and there's gonna be more guys jumping into 518 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 5: the portal. It's not a mess like these are good 519 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 5: academic kids. These are a good solid character kids. These 520 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 5: aren't like this isn't a mess where it's just a 521 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 5: bunch of selfish people, you know, looking out for themselves, 522 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,640 Speaker 5: similar to what Elco is inheriting at extas A and M. 523 00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 5: But they're a mess. In Troy. It's like one of 524 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,480 Speaker 5: the best teams nobody's ever seen. And you know you're 525 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 5: going to have this game in Alabama as well, So 526 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 5: gimme Troy forty points. 527 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna be going with Troy to 528 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily disagree with any of that, I'm putting 529 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: twenty five on Troy. Yeah, they have the closer to 530 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: the home field here this game being played in Birmingham. 531 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:17,199 Speaker 1: I I also think they're a better team. I mean 532 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: even at full strength. I I may have gone Troy, 533 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 1: but they're not both fall strength. Duke has been decimated here. 534 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 1: You got to pick up the pieces with at most 535 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: of their coaching staff. The guy that brought him back 536 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: and again Riley Leonard's out, you know now he's he's 537 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: out and about him the transfer portal making Google eyes 538 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: at Notre. 539 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 5: Dame visiting Notre Dame tomorrow. 540 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's he's going to. Yeah. 541 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 1: He was the one guy in the portal out of 542 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: the thousand that had to do not contact on there, 543 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,720 Speaker 1: which strong indication he's going to Notre day. The other 544 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 1: one was he he followed all the Notre Dame players 545 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:51,919 Speaker 1: on Instagram. 546 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 2: So it's like he gave us a little bit of 547 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 2: you said it, you said it for a weird never 548 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 2: do such. 549 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, So we are unanimous on Troy and in the 550 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: season on a high note. Next one, Saturday, December twenty third, 551 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: The Famous Idaho Potato Ble Classic classic ball game. The 552 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: famous Idaho Potato Ball. This year's rendition between Utah State 553 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: and Georgia State for auton, who do you like? 554 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 3: Oh, we got Georgia State as a two point favorite 555 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 3: over the Aggies. And I think that's kind of interesting 556 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 3: because with Georgia State, we've seen a lot of people, 557 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 3: a lot of their players already hit the portal. We've 558 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 3: seen Marcus Carroll, they're obviously the star running back Chas 559 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 3: Carrol for otime, Christy it is and it is the season, 560 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 3: you know, and he is absolutely making a listen, checking 561 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 3: it twice and potential landing destinations. 562 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:45,680 Speaker 4: That being said, you. 563 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 3: Know, Utah State won three of the last four against 564 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 3: New Mexico, Nevada, San Diego State and two otis. They 565 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 3: put up thirty eight against James Madison. You know, like 566 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 3: this offense has been has been cranking. They're averaging thirty 567 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 3: a game, thirty fifth and rushing, which you know for 568 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 3: an Anderson led offense is a surprise. And with also 569 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 3: Robert Lewis hitting the portal two for Georgia State, they've 570 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 3: lost their last five games, one hundred and fifteenth. For 571 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 3: us to pass ninety second versus the run, give me 572 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 3: Utah State, I feel pretty good about it. Twenty nine 573 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 3: confidence points. 574 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 5: I'm going one. I have no idea Utah State. I 575 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 5: don't I'm taking Utah State, but I don't really have 576 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 5: any confidence both of these teams are going to be. 577 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:31,199 Speaker 5: I'm gonna say Utah's closer to Idaho. That's you know. 578 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 5: I don't trust Georgia State, so only a one stinking 579 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 5: point that'll here in Utah State. 580 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm also going with Utah State.

I I you know, during the 582 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: regular season, I like Georgia State a lot, but for 583 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: a time you hit on it. They've lost so many 584 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: different dudes. Zach Carroll was the whole bell call with 585 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: the offense quite far from the only guy, multiple starting 586 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:57,440 Speaker 1: offensive linement defenders, and on Utah State nothing so far. 587 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 1: Only news we got on them is they brought in Petross, 588 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,000 Speaker 1: my boy, But that's for next year. 589 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 2: That's the story for next year. 590 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 1: But light yeah, real, yeah, Well he's going to revitalize 591 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: the criers down there, you boys, I know. But yeah, 592 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: I'm going to go with six in this one as 593 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 1: they wait for Spencer P.

On December twenty third Saturday, Armed Forces BAW 595 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 1: air Force get gets to go down for that one 596 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,880 Speaker 1: against James Madison for a time. You know, talking about 597 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,239 Speaker 1: James Madison here, talk about a coaching staff that has 598 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 1: been blown up. 599 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 2: Jordan McCleod in the portal as well. 600 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: For JMU, they had the dream season, only lost the 601 00:28:34,800 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: one game and very close. But can they get up 602 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: off the mat here playing an air Force team that also, 603 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: I should mention air Force lost four straight coming into 604 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: this one, so maybe it's air Force that needs to 605 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: get off the mat. 606 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 5: Yeah. 607 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 3: Well, gosh, this is really two teams that are in 608 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:51,560 Speaker 3: different directions, like you're saying.

I mean we're talking about impact players 614 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 3: year for James Madison team that was excellent this year. 615 00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 3: I mean they went eleven and one. You can't fade them. 616 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 3: But at the same time, you know that's a lot 617 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 3: to lose going up against air Force. It is the 618 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 3: Armed Forces Bowl, so I give him, you know, air 619 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,000 Speaker 3: Force a little bit of a nod when it's the 620 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 3: Armed Forceball. 621 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 4: Twenty points on air Force. 622 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 5: I don't like this game. I'm going two points. 623 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: I like. 624 00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 5: I like Jamu. Air Force has been playing horrible down 625 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 5: the stretch. They were undefeated at one point and then 626 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 5: just knows that, you know, air Forces unforcesble or not. 627 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 5: I don't care. Jam You is gonna have a coach 628 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 5: by then. You know it's gonna be a good Hire 629 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 5: holy Cross holy Cross. So I'm to Jamu, but only 630 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 5: going two points. I don't really know what's going to 631 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 5: happen there. 632 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: Air Force last year in the ballseason was my top 633 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: bolt pick when they were the underdog against Baylor and 634 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: Baylor had lost all the guys said the defections and 635 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,240 Speaker 1: then several other contributors. Air Force ends up controlling that 636 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: entire game. It was upset only on paper. I also 637 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 1: like air Force in this game because it's it's sort 638 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: of a similar thing with James Madison only had and 639 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: the staff getting blown up. Signetti going to Indiana taking 640 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: both coordinators with them, the interim coach. They named their 641 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 1: Damian Roeblueski. I think is how you pronounce his name 642 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: for JMU. He said, this is an all hands on 643 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: deck situation, quote unquote talking about the staff because Signetti's 644 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: taking so many guys over to Indiana, so they have 645 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,240 Speaker 1: to for bull season, they have to sort of rejigger 646 00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,040 Speaker 1: their entire coaching staff. 647 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:45,800 Speaker 2: And again the interim guy. 648 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 1: Says, all hands on deck situation doesn't sound like the best. 649 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: Lose some guys contributors to the portal as well. I 650 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: gotta go air Force. I'm going twenty seven confidence points 651 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: with air Force in that one, and also air Force. 652 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 2: This game being played in Texas. 653 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: Air Force the most players on their roster come from Texas, 654 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: that you know, leading state with that. 655 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 2: So we'll see if they can have some hometown pride here. 656 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: Next one, December twenty third. 657 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: On that Saturday, the sixty eight Ventures ball between Eastern 658 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,719 Speaker 1: Michigan and South Alabama. Forroton, this is one of our 659 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: biggest spreads a ball seat might even be the biggest. 660 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: South Alabama fifteen and a half or so point favorite 661 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: DC South Alabama vindicating the sports Bugs by taking out 662 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: EMU in this one. 663 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean sixty eight ventures ball. I think you 664 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 3: could have the sixty eight points Bowl scored on Eastern 665 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 3: Michigan this year. Eastern Austin Smith. Their quarterback is in 666 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 3: the portal. That's not good for an Eastern Michigan offense 667 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 3: ranked one hundred and twenty seventh and passing one hundred 668 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 3: and sixteenth and rushing yikes. 669 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 2: Two. 670 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 3: They only had six wins, two of them they had 671 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 3: less than a fifteen percent win expectancy. And then we're 672 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 3: against UMass and Akron. 673 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what you know, that's. 674 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 3: What we're dealing with here with Eastern Michigan. I simply 675 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,880 Speaker 3: cannot take Eastern Michigan in any way. 676 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 4: Shape or form against the Southern Alabama team. 677 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 3: Sure, you know they have some flaws, but in terms 678 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 3: of their past defense could be a lot better. 679 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 4: But sixteenth against the run, I mean, you know. 680 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 3: Twenty ninth and passing offense fortieth and success rate, this 681 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 3: is a good South Alabama team. Give me South Alabama 682 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 3: thirty four confidence points the. 683 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,600 Speaker 5: USA forty two. This is it. This is the highest 684 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 5: confidence you could bob. You think they just absolutely stink USA. 685 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 5: If you remember actually being a pretty good Power five team. 686 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 5: I mean, they have a good roster compared to you. 687 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 5: He is going to get real here. 688 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 2: I agree. 689 00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: I also have South Alabama for forty two points. Yeah, em, 690 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,560 Speaker 1: you is totally out manned the entire Chris. 691 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 2: I love Chris Crayton. 692 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: You know, he's like the mountain Man, silver fox guy 693 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: from from eastern Michigan. 694 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 2: He's such a great coach. 695 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: This year, he did not have the talent on hand, 696 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 1: so he just became a junk baller and like Froton said, 697 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: they pulled a couple of wins out of there, you 698 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: know what to get here. Congrats to Creighton for that, 699 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,800 Speaker 1: but the luck runs out here South Alabama. They were 700 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: banged up at times this year, especially their receiving cor 701 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: part of the reason they started out slowly. But you 702 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,719 Speaker 1: saw in a couple of games sort of the hammer 703 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 1: that they have when they play up to their ability. 704 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,959 Speaker 1: Oklahoma State game in September would be one of those examples. 705 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: I just think we're gonna we're gonna get the good 706 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: South Alabama team. And by the way, on their home 707 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 1: field in Mobile, this this is not look good for 708 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: Creig and he's really gonna have to pall a miracle 709 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 1: to win that one. Our next one Las Vegas ball 710 00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 1: Northwestern and Utah in this one, got gotta spread around 711 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 1: seven points with the youths being favored. 712 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one for a time? 713 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, youth's favored by six and a half. Right now, 714 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 3: I have Northwestern eight points of confidence points out there. 715 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 3: Reason why Utah is dealing with, you know, a lot 716 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 3: of turnover. Jonah ellis is an NFL opt out. We 717 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 3: have Bryson Bonds in the portal, which means Luke Buttari 718 00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 3: is back in at quarterback. 719 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 4: Mister Vatari. 720 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 3: Last game against Colorado, they beat Colorado twenty three seventeen, 721 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 3: but they ran the ball fifty three times for two 722 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 3: hundred and sixty eight yards only through ten passes for 723 00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 3: sixty one yards behind Batari. And with Northwestern, you know 724 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 3: they don't have any any real impact portal declarations. You 725 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 3: know that they're head coach, done a great job, David 726 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 3: Braun over there, won three of their last four. I 727 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 3: just feel like, you know, with the turnover there at Utah, 728 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 3: you're dealing with a lot of conjecture. I don't have 729 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:37,919 Speaker 3: a lot of confidence, but I'm gonna take Northwestern kind 730 00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 3: of buck the trends here. 731 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 5: I'm taking Utah. I'm taken Utah season lines just coaching 732 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 5: to me, They're gonna run the ball. They're gonna run 733 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 5: the ball ninety percent of the time. Northwestern. Great job 734 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 5: this year by Braun, well deserved, you know, Coach of 735 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 5: the Year, all that good stuff. Just one of the 736 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 5: best coaching jobs from a program that was just decimated 737 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 5: by every thing early in the season. Congrats to him. 738 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 5: But he's still going up against a legend, a future 739 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 5: College Football Hall of Famer, and Kyle Winningham is just 740 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 5: going to run the ball down of stro Not a 741 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 5: high confidence here. I'm going to go eighteen, but I'm 742 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:12,359 Speaker 5: going to take Utah. 743 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Utah as well. I'm going for thirty two, 744 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: a little bit more points in this one. This number 745 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: is so Utah is favored by seven and a half 746 00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: a couple of days ago. It's dropped beneath that touchdown 747 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: after the especially the Utah portal guys with the quarterbacks 748 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 1: going to Atari Batari that dude. But despite that, I mean, 749 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,279 Speaker 1: you said it, Pharaoh. The coaching edge here and you 750 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 1: have to respect what bron did at Northwest was crazy. 751 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 1: I mean, like I was under their win total was 752 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 1: a three flat. In the offseason, they more than double that. 753 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,439 Speaker 1: Incredible coaching job by that guy, you know, especially in LUA, 754 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: the situation there and the scandal and everything like that, 755 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 1: getting them off the map for that by This is 756 00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 1: just a tough one against the Utah team that we've 757 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: seen overcome circumstances all year. Cam Rising never came back. 758 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 1: He never came back. They had injuries all year. Maybe 759 00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: maybe this month will do them good. And maybe the 760 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 1: kid the QB three are going to play in this game, 761 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 1: maybe get them a little bit more experience. But I 762 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: don't think they're going to need much of the passing 763 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 1: game to get by Northwestern. You're going to grind out 764 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 1: another one. So I'll go Utah for thirty two. Our 765 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: next one, man, I love this ball. It's not Christmas 766 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 1: until the Hawaii ball has been played. 767 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:22,399 Speaker 2: This one. 768 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 1: We're gonna get it almost overnight on that Saturday night 769 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:29,319 Speaker 1: into Sunday into Christmas Eve. San Jose State taken on 770 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: coastal Carolina and this one, Tim Beck maybe did a 771 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,760 Speaker 1: little bit better than we thought this year. San Jose 772 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 1: State came on strong at the end of the year. 773 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 1: Grayson McCall is in the portal for Aton. How do 774 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: you think that affects this one. 775 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it isn't just Grayson McCall. I mean, they're a 776 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:47,439 Speaker 3: ton of CCU portal entries for a team that lost 777 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 3: their last two games to James Madison and Army. In 778 00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 3: terms of San Jose State, this is a nine and 779 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:58,520 Speaker 3: a half point favorite here against CCU because of the 780 00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 3: factors that we're talking about, and just you know, instead 781 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 3: of being the air raid team that we used from 782 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 3: you know, head coach Brennan, thirteenth and rusting offense, I mean, 783 00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 3: twenty fourth in yards per play, twenty third and epa 784 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 3: per play on the offensive side. 785 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you. 786 00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 4: Can't say enough about how great they've been. 787 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 3: They've won their last six games, tied for first place 788 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,680 Speaker 3: in the Mountain West, but the computer told them they 789 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:27,000 Speaker 3: can't go. So look, I'm all in on San Jose State. 790 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 3: Give me thirty five points. 791 00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm going twenty three point San Jose State too. 792 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:35,600 Speaker 5: I like the way they finish the season Coastal. It's 793 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 5: just everything's sort of falling apart there a little bit 794 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 5: at the end of the season. McCall's not gonna play 795 00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 5: this one's twenty three. I thought about going higher, but 796 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:45,439 Speaker 5: I'm gonna stick with twenty three for San Jose State. 797 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 1: I'm also going to go with San Jose State here 798 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 1: I got nineteen points on the Spartans. It is a 799 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,399 Speaker 1: tough proposition for Colls. So you got to go over 800 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 1: to Hawaii. You're not playing in full strength in this one, 801 00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: and San Jose State. You guys were alluding to it. 802 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 1: They force you to tackle them in space, right, I mean, 803 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 1: like you know, whether it's it's getting you out of 804 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: the box. He can't stack it by spreading people out, 805 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: the quick kidting passing game, or you know, just the 806 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,839 Speaker 1: running against the light boxes both with the running back 807 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 1: but also shaved on Cordero obviously a dual threat. I 808 00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 1: just think that's a really tough ass for Coasta Carolina 809 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 1: in this game. 810 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:20,840 Speaker 2: So going San Jose State for nineteen. 811 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 1: Next one, my local Minnesota Golden Golphers heading down to 812 00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,600 Speaker 1: the quick laying ball because of their APR. 813 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:30,359 Speaker 2: The only five and seven team in ball season this year. 814 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: I'm not going to mention that they should be four 815 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 1: and eight the Revs hadn't given them the Iowa game. 816 00:38:34,080 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm definitely not going to bring that up. The Golphers 817 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: are taking on Bowling Green in this one four point favorite. 818 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: Bowling Green not the best G five team in the world, 819 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: but Bowling Green gave PJ flex of nightmares a couple 820 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 1: of years ago. 821 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,839 Speaker 2: That game was in Minnesota for a time. 822 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 1: Could Bowling Green pull off another upset over the Golphers 823 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:52,280 Speaker 1: in this one. 824 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 3: Hey, let's let's keep in mind they also gave nightmares 825 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,760 Speaker 3: to Georgia Tech, who they beat earlier in the season 826 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 3: with a ninety three percent win expectancy eight, a commanding 827 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 3: victory over the Yellow Jacket stuffy and said Bowling Green 828 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty eighth in pace. This is two 829 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,399 Speaker 3: of the slowest paced teams in the country. We're gonna 830 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 3: be watching here, so you know, hide your eyes. But 831 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 3: they won five of the last six games. You know, 832 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 3: they have thirty sixth ranked pass defense in the country. 833 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 3: You know, so they they have some things they do well. 834 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,880 Speaker 3: But with Minnesota, you know, they score twenty points a 835 00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:30,920 Speaker 3: game allowed twenty seven, you know, not too great ninety 836 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,959 Speaker 3: six and EPA defensively ninety eighth and yards for play 837 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 3: defensively eight and caliak Manas is out is in the portal. 838 00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:43,960 Speaker 3: Jerry Seinfeld's neighbor, Cole Kramer is in. I am going 839 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 3: to attempt to make some ground up by being contrarian 840 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 3: here to the three and a half point favorite in 841 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 3: Minnesota Golden Gophers, I'm taking Bowling Green, who are going 842 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:53,759 Speaker 3: bowling this year? 843 00:39:54,320 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 2: A right? 844 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 5: Oh gosh, Bowling Green stinkers. I'm taking thirty one points 845 00:39:58,320 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 5: on Minnesota Minnesota stakes too. This is an underplay, by 846 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 5: the way, for a future podcasts. It's gonna be an 847 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 5: ugly game. It's gonna be disgusting and everything. But you know, 848 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 5: I'm going to take Bowling Greens is not good. PJ 849 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 5: Flex is going to figure out a way to win 850 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 5: this football game. It could be, you know, seven to six, 851 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 5: but he's going to figure out a way. 852 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 2: I gotta I gotta go with Bowling Green here too. 853 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 2: For the I only put I only put one on it. 854 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 1: But I've already seen Bowling Green beat a way better 855 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 1: golfer team. This golfer team they stunk all year and 856 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 1: then right after the year, apparently PJ told you know, 857 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,520 Speaker 1: bye bye, they're going to be down to their third 858 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 1: string quarterback for Tom mentioned at Cosmo Kramer's nephew in 859 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 1: this one. 860 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 2: We haven't seen much of that kid. 861 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 1: And if eighth and Kelly at Vannis was clearly better 862 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 1: than him where they were playing eighth in all year, 863 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: I wonder how good or lack their rup that kid is. 864 00:40:51,360 --> 00:40:54,279 Speaker 1: That offense had issues all season and it is going 865 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,239 Speaker 1: to have even more in this game. So I gotta 866 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 1: go with Bowling Green in the quick lane. Our next 867 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:03,280 Speaker 1: one Tuesday, December twenty sixth, first responder ball in Texas. 868 00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,520 Speaker 1: We got two local teams here Texas State at the 869 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,720 Speaker 1: Upstart Texas Day with Guinney taken on Rice. 870 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 2: Rice will not have J T. Daniels. 871 00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,920 Speaker 1: JT Daniels sort of a breath of fresh air announcing 872 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:16,839 Speaker 1: that he was stepping away from the game. A lot 873 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 1: of these, you know, year after year after year. You 874 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: know they play, play play, But JT. Daniels is done. 875 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:24,760 Speaker 1: We're going to get the Paget kid again for Rice. 876 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:25,879 Speaker 1: Who do you like in this one? 877 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 2: Broa time? 878 00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, mercifully. 879 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 5: JT. 880 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 3: Daniels on like his seventh team. I still thought he 881 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 3: had a year left of eligibility somewhere squirreled away. Yeah, 882 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:40,560 Speaker 3: this is a four point favorite for Texas State right now, 883 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:44,840 Speaker 3: and with Texas State beat Baylor week one, but you know, 884 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 3: kind of flub down the stretch two and three down 885 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,719 Speaker 3: the stretch. They have a couple of offensive line injuries 886 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 3: and they're playing food Rice. You know essentially who they're 887 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 3: starting cornerback, Jordan Dunbar is in the portal. 888 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:58,000 Speaker 4: They are another. 889 00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 3: Team that is too completely different styles. You know, you 890 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 3: have a quick paced Texas Tech. You have one hundred 891 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:07,719 Speaker 3: and twenty sixth paced Rice. You know they're forty first 892 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 3: and offensive EPA. But I know that Texas State is 893 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,360 Speaker 3: probably the chock pick here. You know, they are the favorites. However, 894 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,880 Speaker 3: I'm going with Rice. I'm putting nineteen points on it. 895 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 5: I'm going to Texas State. It's only five though. I 896 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 5: don't know who's gonna win this game. I have no idea. 897 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 5: I thought Jakey Daniels was going to the portal again. Honestly, 898 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 5: that would have been the record, would have been the 899 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 5: record for portal entries. He could be a double grat 900 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 5: assistant player, which is the first time ever hear somebody's 901 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 5: been a grad assistant play. He's gonna be a really 902 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 5: good coach, though, Antonio He's going to be a really 903 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 5: good coach down the line, So I can't make fun 904 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 5: of him because I'm gonna have to be dealing with 905 00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,760 Speaker 5: him as assistant eventually. The power five guy Texas State, 906 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 5: but five. 907 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 2: Points, Yeah, and JT. 908 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:53,279 Speaker 1: Daniel is making a smart call starting the coaching career early. 909 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 1: And I've heard the same thing about him that that 910 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 1: you know that people are going to be trying to 911 00:42:57,719 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 1: bring him in as a grad assistant guy. That could 912 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 1: be a great someday. But yeah, walking away from this one, 913 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 1: you wonder about Rice's offense. For a Tom mentioned how 914 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,760 Speaker 1: slow they run in pace. They're going to be protecting 915 00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,720 Speaker 1: that young quarterback even more in this one Texas State, 916 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:12,879 Speaker 1: it was like down the stretch team started to figure 917 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:14,640 Speaker 1: out that offense a little bit, hold them a little 918 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,279 Speaker 1: bit down, but they don't have the same losses that 919 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,360 Speaker 1: Rice has in this one. I think They're gonna be 920 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 1: able to figure this one out. So I'm putting eighteen 921 00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 1: points on Texas State finishing a first year for Kinney 922 00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,239 Speaker 1: on a high note and Kenny staying there. There was 923 00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 1: some talk to maybe schools would look at him, but 924 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:35,080 Speaker 1: stay in there for a second season. Tuesday, the last 925 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: one on Tuesday, December twenty sixth. Yeah, you know, I'm 926 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 1: smiling for this one, the Guaranteed Ray Ball with the 927 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 1: Kansas Fighting Jayhawks taking on UNLV. 928 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 2: You know, I we had a great year right in 929 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 2: the first year of Barry Autumn Brennan. 930 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 5: Merrily at the go go. 931 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 1: But yeah, they got to take on Rockshock here Rockshot 932 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 1: at double digit favorite fort On. 933 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one? 934 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 5: Yeah? 935 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, first off, it's a twelve point advantage 936 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 3: or you're Jayhawks and the Guaranteed Ray Paul down there 937 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:07,880 Speaker 3: in Arizona. But with UNLV, you know, does Brendan Marion stay. 938 00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 3: I assume he's out there interviewing and entertaining other options. 939 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 3: And this offense ninth and passing offense in the country 940 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 3: thirty five points per game, taking a UNLV program that 941 00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 3: has been an absolute albatross for the past decade plus 942 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 3: and making them relevant. 943 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:28,040 Speaker 4: Jaden Mayava is in the portal, he is out. 944 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:31,239 Speaker 3: We will be seeing Doug Brumfield, which might not actually 945 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 3: be a bad thing the way he may have a 946 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 3: played in the Mountain West Championship game. But you and 947 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:39,320 Speaker 3: l V sort of backing into this context sixteen seven 948 00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 3: and zero percent win expectancy over the last three games. 949 00:44:43,200 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 3: They's been outclassed. They're playing a Kansas team with Lance 950 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 3: Leipold again. You know, hopefully he doesn't leave. But you 951 00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:54,840 Speaker 3: know they in fifth and EPA offensively eleventh and success 952 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 3: r eight eighth in yards per play. I mean, this 953 00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 3: is a hell of an offense and a team that 954 00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 3: I just think they're gonna be able to march on 955 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,799 Speaker 3: UNLV and wear them down with either high shot and 956 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 3: if Devin Neil plays, give me Kansas thirty six points. 957 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 5: Two very good thirty six. That's exactly what I got 958 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:15,960 Speaker 5: thirty six. I got Kansas for thirty six as well. Yeah, 959 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:17,880 Speaker 5: two really good coaches. But the way you and LV 960 00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 5: faded down the stretch, I mean, they're just they were 961 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 5: playing over their head obviously all season long and caught 962 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 5: up to them death wise, They're not great. Kansas played 963 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,880 Speaker 5: with everybody. Lance's a tremendous coach. Thirty six points for 964 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 5: you know, I had. 965 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:32,440 Speaker 1: To raise you guys a little bit. I got to 966 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 1: go thirty nine on Rock Talk here, Robert. They're not 967 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 1: gonna have to play the third string guy. Mister Bean's 968 00:45:38,040 --> 00:45:40,040 Speaker 1: going to be playing in this one. Kansas's offense has 969 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,399 Speaker 1: been really good. Would either Daniels or Being have been in. 970 00:45:42,960 --> 00:45:45,960 Speaker 1: Devon Neill hasn't opted out yet, so hopefully hopefully we 971 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:49,280 Speaker 1: get Devinille as well. But either way, UNLV you guys 972 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 1: mentioned it, they've been running out of steam here down 973 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:53,920 Speaker 1: the stretch. I think Rockshaw gets a dub there. Wednesday, 974 00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 1: December twenty seventh, the Military Ball. We got Virginia Tech 975 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 1: and Tulane here. Tulane will be under an inner staff. 976 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 2: Obviously. 977 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 1: Willy Fritz took the offer at Houston to replace Dana Holgerson. 978 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one for a time? 979 00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:10,400 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, the Willy Fritz departure. You know, does Michael 980 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 3: Pratt play? It's another issue. Chris Brazil their top wide 981 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 3: receivers in the portal now, you know, maybe Jakwai Jackson's back, 982 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:24,359 Speaker 3: but Brazil's been pretty good. They against SMU, they got 983 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:28,319 Speaker 3: handled by SMU, you know, and that was at the 984 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:29,240 Speaker 3: height of their powers. 985 00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 4: Now they got no Willy Fritz. 986 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:36,200 Speaker 1: By SMU's backup quarterback who turned them all over three times, even. 987 00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:37,399 Speaker 2: Couldn't do it. Yeah, that was a. 988 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 3: Bad, bad showing by Tulene. I just can't get it 989 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 3: out of my head. And they given they're they're playing 990 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 3: Virginia Tech, but they're they're a heck of an defense, 991 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 3: you know, twenty fifth against the past, thirty eighth against 992 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:51,919 Speaker 3: the run, twenty second in success rate. So they've won 993 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,279 Speaker 3: four of their last six, haven't been hit too hard 994 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:57,399 Speaker 3: at the portal at all. Give me Virginia Tech. I'm 995 00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 3: only going four points, but you know that's where I'm going. 996 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:05,040 Speaker 5: I'm going seven points Virginia Tech. I like the way 997 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,719 Speaker 5: they've been playing. I don't know if Prat's gonna play 998 00:47:07,800 --> 00:47:09,799 Speaker 5: or not, it doesn't matter. They kind of mailed that 999 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:13,840 Speaker 5: one in. Everybody knew Fritz was gone, and they just 1000 00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:15,960 Speaker 5: came out with that type of energy that we already 1001 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,920 Speaker 5: know this is over. So I don't I'm going to 1002 00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,399 Speaker 5: see a lot of energy from Tulane here either Virginia Tech, 1003 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:21,480 Speaker 5: but only for seven. 1004 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, this one, it's going to be a more interesting 1005 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,920 Speaker 1: handicapped than straight up you know, seven and a half points. 1006 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 1: Tulane's defense has played better and some of these games 1007 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 1: maybe nowaithstanding that that's a new game. Although they did 1008 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:34,120 Speaker 1: generate some of the turnovers, but as far as the 1009 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:37,360 Speaker 1: straight up proposition, it's the Hokies here for the reasons 1010 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,759 Speaker 1: that you guys stated at Tulane losing that the guy 1011 00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,160 Speaker 1: that brought him back, and Willie Fritz, and I'm not 1012 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:44,359 Speaker 1: sure if Pratt's gonna play. He's already accepted a Senior 1013 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,520 Speaker 1: Bowl invite. Seems like he has one foot out the door. 1014 00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 1: So I'm going Hokies for seventeen in that one. Later 1015 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 1: on, on December twenty seventh, the Wednesday Dukee Mayo Ball. You 1016 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 1: gotta love the Mayo Ball with the Mayo bath afterwards. 1017 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,799 Speaker 1: Dennis Dodd might not like it, but we definitely do. 1018 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:03,960 Speaker 1: You got West Virginia this year taking on North Carolina. 1019 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:06,440 Speaker 1: Who do you like in this one? For a time. 1020 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,440 Speaker 3: North Carolina has sixteen players in the portal right now. 1021 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 3: We're gonna get a Drake may and a tes Walker 1022 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,320 Speaker 3: Rucker opt out as well. Those guys will not be playing. 1023 00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 3: And this is a team that's you know, six in pace, 1024 00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 3: has an incredible offense, but defensively, you know, even though 1025 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 3: they were a little better than last years, still giving 1026 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 3: up twenty nine a game in rank eighty six and 1027 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 3: EPA per play. I guess the West Virginia team that 1028 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:35,600 Speaker 3: you know, their game totals went over sixty three points 1029 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,839 Speaker 3: in six of the last seven games. So if we're 1030 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:41,120 Speaker 3: looking to the future, as Mike had said before, let's 1031 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 3: just say I like the over in this game. 1032 00:48:43,719 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 4: Only Penn State and Oklahoma blew out West Virginia No. 1033 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 3: Eight and four team otherwise forty percent plus one expectancy 1034 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 3: in all their other ten games. Very competitive. I'm gonna 1035 00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 3: go with West Virginia to take out a depleted North 1036 00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 3: Carolina team twenty four points and West Virginia is favored 1037 00:49:01,520 --> 00:49:03,320 Speaker 3: by three and a half. 1038 00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:06,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm only going to go eleven points, but I'm 1039 00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 5: going to go with West Virginia as well. Neil Brown 1040 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:11,800 Speaker 5: said he would welcome the Manny bath and that alone 1041 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 5: allows me to take West Virginia. But North Carolina a 1042 00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:17,919 Speaker 5: lot of transition here, obviously going to be some opt 1043 00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:21,879 Speaker 5: ouse portals filled. They're not in a good place right now, 1044 00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 5: so give me Wes. 1045 00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:25,360 Speaker 1: We need the public declaration for Mac Brown that he 1046 00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 1: will also get the Mayo bath if they if the 1047 00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:28,400 Speaker 1: tar Heels doing do you. 1048 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:28,840 Speaker 2: Win this on? 1049 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:32,359 Speaker 5: He would do it. He's a good sport it. Mack 1050 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 5: Brown is a national treasure, but I don't know they're following. 1051 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:37,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with you guys in this one. I'm 1052 00:49:37,880 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 1: going West Virginia for twenty four. This would have been 1053 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,760 Speaker 1: a bad matchup for North Carolina even if these teams 1054 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 1: were straight up, you know, like at full strength, because 1055 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: North Carolina has that paper soft defense and West Virginia 1056 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 1: has the alsome offensive line and they just play bully 1057 00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 1: ball with the teams that don't have the defensive front. 1058 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 1: And then you guys mentioned how decimated North Carolina could be. 1059 00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:01,000 Speaker 1: In addition to this, West Virginia on the up swing. 1060 00:50:01,080 --> 00:50:03,520 Speaker 1: With Brown, who I thought before the season, I thought 1061 00:50:03,560 --> 00:50:05,719 Speaker 1: he was gonna get fired. This year, they turned the 1062 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: thing totally around. They should have had one other win 1063 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:09,880 Speaker 1: at least for a time. You were talking about that 1064 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:12,000 Speaker 1: the Hail Mary at the end of the Houston game, 1065 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 1: I mean, was crazy. Houston stole a win there at 1066 00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,880 Speaker 1: the very end from West Virginia. But yeah, very impressive 1067 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 1: job by Neil Brown and company there this year. So 1068 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:24,120 Speaker 1: I'm going twenty four points West Virginia that we got 1069 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: the Holiday Ball next forro time. You and I might 1070 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:30,359 Speaker 1: be at this one. On Wednesday, December twenty seventh. This 1071 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:34,319 Speaker 1: one is between USC. We know that Caleb Williams isn't 1072 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,439 Speaker 1: going to play because Lincoln Riley said that a couple 1073 00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 1: of days ago. 1074 00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:37,960 Speaker 2: Who will be. 1075 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,399 Speaker 1: Joining him on the sideline and opting out of this game? 1076 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 1: We'll have to find out. USC taking on Louisville. Louisville 1077 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:46,880 Speaker 1: a team the last time we saw that, they actually 1078 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 1: the last two times we saw them, they did not 1079 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 1: look very cut. But an opportunity here in the holiday 1080 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 1: bawl in San Diego, maybe to go into USC's neighborhood 1081 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,760 Speaker 1: and take one from from the blue Blood program? 1082 00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one? For us? 1083 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:02,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no maybe about it. I will be at 1084 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:04,360 Speaker 3: this game. This is right down the road for me 1085 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 3: in San Diego, So walk that one up, Thor. I 1086 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 3: hope you will be as well. But with USC, I 1087 00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:12,320 Speaker 3: don't think we see Calyn Bullock. I don't think we 1088 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,440 Speaker 3: see Marshawn Lloyd. I don't see a reason why those 1089 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:16,759 Speaker 3: two guys would play as well as Caleb Williams. So 1090 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:18,759 Speaker 3: you know, keep that in mind. And this is a 1091 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 3: team that's lost five to their last six. The only 1092 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:24,520 Speaker 3: win in the second half was a fifty to forty 1093 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 3: nine squeaker over Cal in which you can imagine how 1094 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,520 Speaker 3: bad their defense was in that. You know, we know 1095 00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 3: what we're getting with USC. Potent offense, but no Caleb. 1096 00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:39,040 Speaker 3: So can they overcome you know this one hundred and 1097 00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 3: twenty second ranked EPA defense under twenty seventh against the run, 1098 00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 3: Like good luck? Is Louisville great? You know they're flawed. 1099 00:51:47,800 --> 00:51:49,960 Speaker 3: I think we've seen that the past couple of weeks. 1100 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 3: But you know, I assume plumberll play steady balanced hand there. 1101 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:59,120 Speaker 3: They've only only two games where they've had sub sixty 1102 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:00,919 Speaker 3: percent winnings sees all year. 1103 00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:03,120 Speaker 4: Like this has been a good team on both sides 1104 00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 4: of the ball. 1105 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:06,920 Speaker 3: I gotta go with them. Very little portal impact, thirty 1106 00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:08,760 Speaker 3: seven points on Louisville over USC. 1107 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:13,799 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm going thirty four points Louisville USC. All the 1108 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:17,880 Speaker 5: things we mentioned, killer Williams and plan. The team's in disarray, 1109 00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:20,520 Speaker 5: Lincoln Riley as this team had it in the wrong direction. 1110 00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 5: They don't care. They will quit pretty quickly in this 1111 00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,880 Speaker 5: game if they get punched in the mouth and Louisville 1112 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 5: has something to play for. You know, they're a little 1113 00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:31,400 Speaker 5: bit upset about that Florida State game. They're a year 1114 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:33,719 Speaker 5: ahead of schedule. Bro, i'm's going to have this team 1115 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 5: focused and angry, So definitely thirty four points. 1116 00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,480 Speaker 1: I'm going twenty three points with Louisville USC seemed like 1117 00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,360 Speaker 1: they wanted to quit all year. Now they're going to 1118 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:46,600 Speaker 1: get their shot to quit for real. But Louisa's just 1119 00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:48,720 Speaker 1: the way the offense took the past couple of games 1120 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:50,759 Speaker 1: is the thing that makes you just a little bit 1121 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,640 Speaker 1: skittish by against his USC team, they should be able 1122 00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:53,839 Speaker 1: to win. 1123 00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:56,359 Speaker 2: So twenty three points for me on louis last game. 1124 00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:58,920 Speaker 1: On that Wednesday, December twenty seventh, we got the Texas 1125 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 1: ball to say, and I'm in the post Jimbo era 1126 00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:03,399 Speaker 1: taken on Oklahoma State. 1127 00:53:03,480 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 2: Can Oklahoma State. 1128 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 1: Get off the mat from getting whipped by the Texas 1129 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:08,439 Speaker 1: Longhorns a Big twelve championship game? 1130 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 2: What do you like in this one for a time? 1131 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:13,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, Jimbo's out, Max Johnson is out. He is in 1132 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,839 Speaker 3: the portal. We'll get Jalen Henderson at quarterback, who also 1133 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 3: got Walter Nolan, Evan Stewart McKinley their other defensive tackle 1134 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:25,479 Speaker 3: next to Stewart, he opted out. So there's a lot 1135 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:27,920 Speaker 3: going on there at Texas A and M as you 1136 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:32,040 Speaker 3: might imagine giving the coaching turnover over there. On the 1137 00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 3: other side, Oklahoma State not much portal impact yet. You know, 1138 00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:39,239 Speaker 3: a couple guys, but they're pretty much down the depth chart. 1139 00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:43,160 Speaker 3: They haven't played great, you know, obviously the last five games, 1140 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 3: the US the UCF game, the Texas game. But this 1141 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:50,160 Speaker 3: is a stable team and a stable situation when it 1142 00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 3: comes to bowl season and it comes to prognosticating these things. 1143 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:57,040 Speaker 3: Give me the team that still has Gundy there, still 1144 00:53:57,080 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 3: has their you know, their battle tested veteran comedy legend, 1145 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:05,359 Speaker 3: British comedy legend quarterback Allen Bowman. I go to put 1146 00:54:05,400 --> 00:54:08,480 Speaker 3: fourteen points on Oklahoma State as they are three and 1147 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,399 Speaker 3: a half point dogs. I guess I'm against the grain here. 1148 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,480 Speaker 5: I'm going to Oklahoma State too. I mean, I'm twenty 1149 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,279 Speaker 5: five points here for me, A and M. I like 1150 00:54:17,320 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 5: the olkoh hire. I think he's a good guy. I 1151 00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:23,840 Speaker 5: think he'll, you know, get them right at least, but 1152 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 5: it's going to take a little while. They lost a 1153 00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:27,600 Speaker 5: lot to the portal. They really don't have the quarterbacks solution. 1154 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,520 Speaker 5: Oklahoma State is Oklahoma State. I mean they're going to 1155 00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:32,399 Speaker 5: run the ball a million times, and I don't think 1156 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 5: A and M is going to be able to stop 1157 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 5: it with all the defections. So twenty five points Oklahoma State. 1158 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:37,919 Speaker 1: I'm going to go A and M for twenty two. 1159 00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:40,799 Speaker 1: I just don't like what I see in Oklahoma State's there. 1160 00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:44,479 Speaker 1: You know that, especially the defense. He's a couple of games, 1161 00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 1: particularly against Texas, but the offense one handed. A and 1162 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,359 Speaker 1: M did have the defections on the defensive line. We'll 1163 00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 1: see if that affects their ability to shut down the run. 1164 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:54,839 Speaker 1: But if they can shut down the run, Oklahoma State 1165 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 1: can't do anything else. 1166 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 2: Before we move on to the last ones, I want to. 1167 00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:00,360 Speaker 1: Encourage everyone out there to download the Vetting Pros app 1168 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,960 Speaker 1: for iOS and Android, track your picks, customized analytics, line 1169 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 1: movement alerts, follow experts and get their bets as they 1170 00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:09,840 Speaker 1: make them.

Thursday, December 1174 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:23,040 Speaker 1: twenty eighth, Boston College gets to stay home for this one. 1175 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:26,600 Speaker 1: Taken on SMU sm you overcame the circumstances we were 1176 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:29,560 Speaker 1: talking about before in the conference title game they had 1177 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:32,160 Speaker 1: against Tulane with Kevin Jennings. We're going to see Kevin 1178 00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 1: Jennings again here. Can you clean up the turnovers? Can 1179 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:36,360 Speaker 1: they overcome Boston College? 1180 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:37,920 Speaker 2: Here? Who do you like in this one? For a time? 1181 00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:38,520 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1182 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 3: Boston College also stayed home. In the last three games. 1183 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 3: They had win expectancies of one percent or less against 1184 00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:50,680 Speaker 3: IT Miami and Virginia Tech. That's pathetic, you know, defensively 1185 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,560 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty seventh, in past defense one hundred 1186 00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:57,560 Speaker 3: and eighteenth, and EPA just brutal. You can't trust this 1187 00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:00,319 Speaker 3: BC team in my opinion, SMU and the other side 1188 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:02,759 Speaker 3: nine straight wins, including a twenty six to fourteen win 1189 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:07,799 Speaker 3: over TU Lane in the AAC Championship game. Given they're 1190 00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:10,920 Speaker 3: starting Kevin Jennings, but look, there is a much portal impact. 1191 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 3: We know Preston Stones out. They still rank fourteenth nationally 1192 00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 3: in defense, sixth in defensive EPA eighth and success rate. 1193 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,480 Speaker 3: You know, this is still a pretty good team on 1194 00:56:21,560 --> 00:56:25,440 Speaker 3: both sides of the balls. Give me SMU thirty eight points. 1195 00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,439 Speaker 3: They're favored by eleven, so I'm gonna put thirty eight 1196 00:56:28,440 --> 00:56:29,120 Speaker 3: points on it. 1197 00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 5: Of confidence, I'm going forty one for SMU. Nobody cares 1198 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:38,440 Speaker 5: about Boston College in Boston. This isn't a home, you know, 1199 00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:43,640 Speaker 5: field advantage in any manner. They're just everything about. They 1200 00:56:43,680 --> 00:56:45,520 Speaker 5: had a little stretch during the middle of the season 1201 00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:47,719 Speaker 5: where they were okay, but they can't match up with 1202 00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:51,440 Speaker 5: this team. SMU is actually playing like they care about things. 1203 00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 5: They're really excited about the way they finish the season. 1204 00:56:54,120 --> 00:56:56,600 Speaker 5: They're going to drill them. So forty one points for us. 1205 00:56:56,960 --> 00:56:59,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that was wildly impressive SMU beating two lane with 1206 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:02,239 Speaker 1: the backup quarterback in the AC title and and they 1207 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 1: proved something to me. I'm definitely not fading them here. 1208 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:08,040 Speaker 1: You guys mentioned the fork sticking out of Boston College's 1209 00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,840 Speaker 1: back right now. I got SMU for thirty six points 1210 00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:13,120 Speaker 1: in this game. I don't know how Boston College is defense. 1211 00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 1: It already seems like it's quite I don't know how 1212 00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 1: they slowed on SMU here same day, Thursday, December twenty eight, 1213 00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:23,640 Speaker 1: couple hours later this kickoff, we go to New York 1214 00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:27,480 Speaker 1: at Yankee Stadium now at the Pinstripe Ball Miami taking 1215 00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:29,960 Speaker 1: on Rutgers in this one, Rutgers a little bit closer 1216 00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 1: to home. Miami maybe has the talent edge brought on. 1217 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:34,320 Speaker 1: Who do you think has the advantage in this game? 1218 00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:38,280 Speaker 3: Straight up, no, Miami will not be starting Tyler van 1219 00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 3: Dyke because he is in the portal. We'll get Ja 1220 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:45,560 Speaker 3: Curry Brown, their third string recher at freshman quarterback. Now, 1221 00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 3: Miami twenty seven percent win expectancy or less in four 1222 00:57:50,640 --> 00:57:53,520 Speaker 3: of their last five games. The only one that they 1223 00:57:53,600 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 3: won of those last four was against the aforementioned BC. 1224 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 3: That is a catastrophe of a team. Cam Kinchens will 1225 00:57:59,880 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 3: be out, Williams will be out. And as far as 1226 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,280 Speaker 3: they're two top you know, safeties, Leonard Taylor their top 1227 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 3: defensive lineman, he is opting out, I believe. 1228 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 4: So there's a lot going against Miami in that respect. 1229 00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:15,480 Speaker 3: I'm playing a Rutgers team that doesn't have much in 1230 00:58:15,560 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 3: terms of the portal, is thirteenth in terms of yards 1231 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:21,920 Speaker 3: per past defensively twenty third yards per play. Like they 1232 00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 3: are a defense oriented team that wants to run you 1233 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 3: over with Kyle Mounting, guy, give it to me. I'm 1234 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 3: going to take the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. Even though They're 1235 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 3: two and a half point dogs. I'm gonna put sixteen 1236 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 3: confidence points on Rutgers. 1237 00:58:38,880 --> 00:58:41,720 Speaker 5: I'm going to take six per Rutgers. This is going 1238 00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:44,160 Speaker 5: to be a cold game. It's gonna be in New York. 1239 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:46,360 Speaker 5: Rutgers are gonna have a chip on their shoulder. They're 1240 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:48,520 Speaker 5: gonna play physical, They're gonna run the football, They're gonna 1241 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:51,400 Speaker 5: play good defense. I don't think Miami players are gonna 1242 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 5: want any part of this after the first quarter. So 1243 00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 5: give me. Give me Rutgers here three for three on 1244 00:58:58,280 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 5: the dog. 1245 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,919 Speaker 1: I got Rutgers for fifteen point signing. They're closer to home, 1246 00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 1: they don't have the defections that Miami does. I didn't 1247 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 1: like that Miami team anyway, and now they got to 1248 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:09,400 Speaker 1: travel up here at ball game. They don't want to 1249 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 1: play against against a Rutgers team that is going to 1250 00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 1: be clearly jacked to be playing here. And in bowl season. 1251 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:17,360 Speaker 1: Rutgers can play defense, they can run the ball. I 1252 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 1: like the Scarlet Knights a lot in that game. Our 1253 00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 1: next one, the Pop Tarts ball. Also on Thursday, December 1254 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 1: twenty eighth, we got Kansas State taken on North Carolina State. 1255 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:31,439 Speaker 1: Here some interesting stuff going on here for oton. Will 1256 00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 1: Howard out the door. The Avery Johnson era starts right 1257 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:37,480 Speaker 1: now for the Wildcats taking on this North Carolina State 1258 00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:39,800 Speaker 1: team that earlier in the season. It was like, what's 1259 00:59:39,840 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 1: going on here? And then all of a sudden MJ. 1260 00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:45,000 Speaker 1: Morris they kick him out and Brendan Armstrong gets his 1261 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 1: job back. North Carolina State been playing really well down 1262 00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:48,240 Speaker 1: the stretch. 1263 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:49,360 Speaker 2: We like in this game. 1264 00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a good one here. We'll finally get 1265 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:54,360 Speaker 3: some games we can sink our teeth into. This is 1266 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:57,960 Speaker 3: Kansas State, favored by three and a half points, and 1267 00:59:58,080 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 3: I'll tell you I had a hard time I'm with 1268 01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:02,360 Speaker 3: this one. You know, this is Kansastate team lost to 1269 01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:05,840 Speaker 3: Iowa State, Texas, Oklahoma State, Missou. You know, nothing to 1270 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 3: really be ashamed of there. They beat Kansas despite a 1271 01:00:08,560 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 3: one percent win expectancy. I know you remember that game 1272 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:12,920 Speaker 3: for race It. 1273 01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 2: Through my memory. 1274 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:16,360 Speaker 3: Oh fair enough. Well, will Will Howard is in the portal. 1275 01:00:16,400 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 3: He won't you won't have to see him anymore. So 1276 01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:23,040 Speaker 3: it's gonna be the Avery Johnson era beginning. Treyshawn Ward, 1277 01:00:23,280 --> 01:00:26,520 Speaker 3: they're when they're two headed running backs, is also in 1278 01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 3: the portal and they're playing NC State team. NC State team, 1279 01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:34,560 Speaker 3: bad offense, good defense. You know you also got quarterback MJ. 1280 01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,560 Speaker 3: Morris in the portal as you mentioned. You know, brand 1281 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 3: Notcht from gets deposed, comes back still ninety sixth ranked 1282 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:46,880 Speaker 3: passing offense, ninety third ranked rush offense. Their defense is 1283 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 3: eighteenth versus the rash versus the past, thirteenth versus the run, 1284 01:00:50,520 --> 01:00:54,120 Speaker 3: So pretty much complete contrast when it comes to that game. 1285 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:58,200 Speaker 3: They did win their last five games. NC State with 1286 01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 3: an eighty one percent winnings. I can see or more 1287 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:06,280 Speaker 3: their losses Duke, Notre Dame, Louisville all pretty reasonable. I'm 1288 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:10,360 Speaker 3: gonna take NC State and it's gonna be five confidence points. 1289 01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 3: Since I think this is gonna be a close. 1290 01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:15,760 Speaker 5: Game, I'm going thirty eight for Kansas State. I love 1291 01:01:15,840 --> 01:01:20,840 Speaker 5: Dave dorm I love what he's cobbled together here, but 1292 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:25,280 Speaker 5: you know, they've just been winning ugly. Everything about everything 1293 01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 5: they've been doing is just like duct tape and bandis 1294 01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:32,160 Speaker 5: and it's just he's done an amazing job. But Kansas 1295 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 5: State is a much better football team. Avery Johnson is 1296 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 5: a very talented quarterback. Roster talent here isn't close to me. 1297 01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:42,480 Speaker 5: I think Kansas State's going to beat them. I think 1298 01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 5: it's going to be a ten point game. So I'm 1299 01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:46,520 Speaker 5: going high thirty eight points on Kansas State. 1300 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:49,160 Speaker 2: I just didn't have a feel for this game. 1301 01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:53,120 Speaker 1: So I'm doing North Carolina State for three. I'm interested 1302 01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 1: to see Avery Johnson. You're taking over the full time role. 1303 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 1: He was dynamic as a runner this year. Want to 1304 01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:00,240 Speaker 1: see him over the entire course of a game against 1305 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:03,040 Speaker 1: a said North Carolina State defense. But if Avery Johnson 1306 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 1: can't throw struggles with that that it could be a 1307 01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:08,600 Speaker 1: tough ass for them with that North Carolina State team 1308 01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:10,480 Speaker 1: coming on. But like I said, not a ton of 1309 01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:13,640 Speaker 1: confidence for me. Only three points in that one. Last 1310 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:15,880 Speaker 1: game of Thursday, December twenty eighth, we got the Alamo 1311 01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:19,960 Speaker 1: ball here between Oklahoma, who has lost Dylan Gabriel. It 1312 01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,600 Speaker 1: seems to the transfer portal. Is he going to Missippi 1313 01:02:22,640 --> 01:02:25,200 Speaker 1: State joined Levy or not? Levy's out as well the 1314 01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. Oklahoma taken on Arizona in this one. Up 1315 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:32,480 Speaker 1: start Arizona Wildcats and Jed Fish. What do you like 1316 01:02:32,520 --> 01:02:33,520 Speaker 1: in this one for a time? 1317 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:39,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a three point spread with Arizona favorite gush. 1318 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:40,760 Speaker 3: If you said that for the season. I'm sure Noboe 1319 01:02:40,760 --> 01:02:43,080 Speaker 3: would have believed you, but you know, here we are, 1320 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:46,919 Speaker 3: and like you said, it's gonna be the Jackson Arnold unfurling. 1321 01:02:47,640 --> 01:02:51,480 Speaker 3: It's been coming for a while. Five star QB Tyler Geiton, 1322 01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:54,800 Speaker 3: their left tackle is opting out. And this keep in 1323 01:02:54,800 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 3: mind the Oklahoma team. This is a potent offense right 1324 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:02,200 Speaker 3: second nationally forty three points per game and defensively not 1325 01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:04,919 Speaker 3: bad either twenty seventh and EPA twenty ninth and yards 1326 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 3: per pass. They lost games against Kansas and Oklahoma State 1327 01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:13,800 Speaker 3: with plus sixty three percent win expectancies. I mean, they 1328 01:03:13,840 --> 01:03:17,280 Speaker 3: just managed to fumble those two. I'm much to the 1329 01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:20,120 Speaker 3: delight of thor on the Kansas side, but they're playing 1330 01:03:20,120 --> 01:03:24,280 Speaker 3: in Arizona. Team left tackle Jordan Morgan is opting out. 1331 01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:27,800 Speaker 3: They are the sixth ranked rushing offense in the country 1332 01:03:27,840 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 3: in the thirty eighth overall defense. There are three losses 1333 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:34,560 Speaker 3: were to Mississippi State, Washington, and USC. And you know, 1334 01:03:34,720 --> 01:03:37,880 Speaker 3: basically Mississippi State and USC were coin flips while winning 1335 01:03:37,920 --> 01:03:39,000 Speaker 3: their last six games. 1336 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 4: I am going with Oklahoma here. 1337 01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:46,520 Speaker 3: I think that they're a little more battle tested and 1338 01:03:46,640 --> 01:03:52,240 Speaker 3: ready to be ready for the bowl season. Thirteen points 1339 01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:55,040 Speaker 3: on Oklahoma. 1340 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:57,919 Speaker 5: I'm going Arizona. I learned my lasson. I'm going thirty 1341 01:03:58,000 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 5: nine points on Arizona, by the way, because here's the situation. Oklahoma. 1342 01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:05,040 Speaker 5: You've got Levy gone, he got co offensive coordinators. They're 1343 01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:07,280 Speaker 5: going to be trying to keep what he had and 1344 01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:09,560 Speaker 5: then there. But now they've got a new quarterback. You 1345 01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:14,040 Speaker 5: got some defections on defense, not that they're going to 1346 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 5: be in total disarray, but there's a transition here. You know, 1347 01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:20,919 Speaker 5: the QB is good, he was a Scott the five star. 1348 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 5: I love him, but he's not ready yet. And I 1349 01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:27,280 Speaker 5: think Arizona is really using this as a potential springboard 1350 01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:29,520 Speaker 5: to what's next season. They're going to take this game 1351 01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 5: extremely seriously. I think Oklahoma is going to be, you 1352 01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 5: know a little bit with their eye looking forward to 1353 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,440 Speaker 5: the SEC kind of mailed it in here. So Arizona 1354 01:04:38,480 --> 01:04:40,800 Speaker 5: big in this one. Thirty nine points. They're not gonna 1355 01:04:40,800 --> 01:04:42,919 Speaker 5: win by thirty nine, but I'm putting thirty nine points. 1356 01:04:43,200 --> 01:04:45,400 Speaker 1: I'm with you, fair I, but you know I got 1357 01:04:45,440 --> 01:04:47,960 Speaker 1: Arizona at twenty one points. But yeah, I have more 1358 01:04:48,000 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 1: confidence there, you know, with Gabriel being out, with Levy 1359 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,840 Speaker 1: being gone, whatever, and an Oklahoma team led by the offense. 1360 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 1: You just have questions there, questions that I don't have 1361 01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:59,200 Speaker 1: about Arizona. It just impressed me over and over again 1362 01:04:59,240 --> 01:05:01,680 Speaker 1: this season, and I agree with what you said about 1363 01:05:01,720 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 1: the spring bar for them for next season. Jed Fish 1364 01:05:03,920 --> 01:05:07,120 Speaker 1: still there and looks like he's going to return next year. 1365 01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 1: So I'm going with Arizona for twenty one. Moving on 1366 01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:13,160 Speaker 1: to Friday, December twenty ninth, the Gator Ball here between 1367 01:05:13,240 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: Kentucky and Clemson. 1368 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:16,120 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one for a time. 1369 01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:21,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, Clemson is favored by a touchdown, and you know 1370 01:05:21,440 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 3: it's it's easy to understand why they do have some 1371 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:28,440 Speaker 3: opt outs. Wiggins, Nate Wiggins, one of the fastest guys 1372 01:05:28,480 --> 01:05:32,280 Speaker 3: in college football, Barrick Carter, Jeremiah Trotter, They're all out 1373 01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:36,760 Speaker 3: and cornerback Tory and pride is in the portal. But defensively, 1374 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:39,200 Speaker 3: I mean first against the pass and fifteenth against the run. 1375 01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:44,320 Speaker 3: Won their last four pretty impressively, you know in that sense, 1376 01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 3: Notre Dame, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia Tech all seventy 1377 01:05:48,480 --> 01:05:52,440 Speaker 3: five percent win expectancies are more. You've got Kentucky, Keaton 1378 01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:56,080 Speaker 3: Wade Kaylin Geiger, both in the portal. Pretty bad down 1379 01:05:56,080 --> 01:05:58,360 Speaker 3: the stretch, going two and five with six games with 1380 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 3: an under thirty five percent expectancy. Give me Clemson. I'm 1381 01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 3: putting thirty one confidence points on this. 1382 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:08,720 Speaker 5: I'm putting thirty three on Clemson. I like the way 1383 01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:11,320 Speaker 5: they've bounced back this season, and I know they've got 1384 01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:14,160 Speaker 5: a lot of guys, especially on the defensive side of things, 1385 01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:16,280 Speaker 5: that are either in the portal or opting out. But 1386 01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:19,400 Speaker 5: it doesn't matter to me. The way Kentucky's playing, you know, 1387 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:22,760 Speaker 5: the way they almost lost their coach. I mean, he's 1388 01:06:22,760 --> 01:06:24,640 Speaker 5: going to get this team back and it's going to 1389 01:06:24,680 --> 01:06:26,400 Speaker 5: be a challenge for him. I know they beat Louisville, 1390 01:06:26,400 --> 01:06:28,959 Speaker 5: that was a big deal, but Clemson's playing much much better. 1391 01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:31,280 Speaker 5: It's a good matchup for them too. I don't think 1392 01:06:31,320 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 5: Kentucky's going to be able to hang with them. 1393 01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:35,680 Speaker 2: I agree with that. I'm going with Clemson. 1394 01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:39,000 Speaker 1: I put thirty four points on Clemson, and I had 1395 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,880 Speaker 1: Kentucky against Louisville in the finale, one of the few 1396 01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:45,080 Speaker 1: games good games that Kentucky had they're down the second 1397 01:06:45,120 --> 01:06:47,600 Speaker 1: half of the season. Also got Kentucky over their win total, 1398 01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:50,480 Speaker 1: so I appreciated that, but this is a different proposition 1399 01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:53,280 Speaker 1: playing this cleansing team Clemson. You know, they do have 1400 01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:55,720 Speaker 1: the couple of opt outs by I think. You know, 1401 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,160 Speaker 1: sometimes you worry about somebody these teams playing in the 1402 01:06:58,200 --> 01:07:00,400 Speaker 1: lesser games, the teams that are used to and the 1403 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 1: bigger ones. But we see Dabo, you know, fighting with 1404 01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,440 Speaker 1: the fans, fighting with the media. You know that the 1405 01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:08,800 Speaker 1: whole time, he's still feisty. They want to finish off 1406 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:10,920 Speaker 1: this season strong in this one, and they have a 1407 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:13,000 Speaker 1: golden opportunity here against the Kentucky team. 1408 01:07:13,040 --> 01:07:15,000 Speaker 2: It's not very good. So thirty four points for me 1409 01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:15,640 Speaker 2: on Clemson. 1410 01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:19,520 Speaker 1: Next one some ball December twenty ninth on Friday, Notre 1411 01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:23,880 Speaker 1: Dame and Oregon State. Tough times at Oregon State right now. 1412 01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:25,760 Speaker 1: You know who are they going to have here? They're 1413 01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 1: certainly not gonna have their culturating staff dj us out 1414 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:29,440 Speaker 1: the door. Who else is going to be out the 1415 01:07:29,480 --> 01:07:32,000 Speaker 1: door in this one taking on Notre Dame? Who do 1416 01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:33,080 Speaker 1: you like in this one for a time? 1417 01:07:33,560 --> 01:07:38,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, Jonathan Smith, head coach gone to Michigan State. DJU 1418 01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:41,640 Speaker 3: and Aidan Shiles both QB's gone to the portal. I 1419 01:07:41,640 --> 01:07:45,000 Speaker 3: think we probably see Damian Martinez at some point follow them, 1420 01:07:45,040 --> 01:07:47,480 Speaker 3: and they're playing a Notre Dame team with this is 1421 01:07:47,520 --> 01:07:52,160 Speaker 3: Sam Hartman Swansong, one of the great all time quarterbacks 1422 01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:57,480 Speaker 3: in NCAA history, but he's gonna be able without Rico Flores, Merriweather, 1423 01:07:57,640 --> 01:08:01,600 Speaker 3: Brayln James, the tight end, Holden Days also in the portal, 1424 01:08:02,160 --> 01:08:05,680 Speaker 3: starting center, Zeke Correll. I mean there's a lot of 1425 01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:09,520 Speaker 3: guys in the portal here for Notre Dame, regardless won 1426 01:08:09,600 --> 01:08:13,480 Speaker 3: for their last five games, you know, averaging thirty eight 1427 01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:17,639 Speaker 3: a game, only allowing eighteen. I just I can't imagine 1428 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:19,360 Speaker 3: that Oregon State is going to be up for this 1429 01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:22,200 Speaker 3: game with all that's going on in that program. Give 1430 01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:24,320 Speaker 3: me Notre Dame, who is an eight and a half 1431 01:08:24,400 --> 01:08:27,639 Speaker 3: point favorite. I'm putting thirty nine confidence points on them. 1432 01:08:28,640 --> 01:08:30,640 Speaker 5: I'm putting twenty nine on Notre Dame. I mean, the 1433 01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:32,280 Speaker 5: Oregon State is going to try to be up for it. 1434 01:08:32,320 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 5: They like the internal higher. They're just losing too many 1435 01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 5: people and it's going to get worse. I mean, the 1436 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:39,519 Speaker 5: portal is going to be filled with Oregon State guys 1437 01:08:39,520 --> 01:08:42,040 Speaker 5: before the week is done. Just not going to be 1438 01:08:42,040 --> 01:08:44,400 Speaker 5: able to overcome the losses and the depth, So twenty 1439 01:08:44,479 --> 01:08:45,200 Speaker 5: nine for Notre Dame. 1440 01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:47,519 Speaker 1: I'm going thirty five on Notre Dame for a lot 1441 01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 1: of those reasons that Faro stated. I just with Oregon State, 1442 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:53,120 Speaker 1: they've already lost some of the guys. The college staff's gone, 1443 01:08:53,200 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 1: and then you're expecting more guys to leave, and it's 1444 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 1: like who's going to be there for this game. It's 1445 01:08:57,160 --> 01:08:59,360 Speaker 1: going to be an interesting handicap. You know, for a 1446 01:08:59,400 --> 01:09:03,400 Speaker 1: time got into losses that Notre Dame has. Their receiving 1447 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,240 Speaker 1: room got decimated, you know, like they fired their wide 1448 01:09:06,240 --> 01:09:09,519 Speaker 1: receiver Collach Chauncey Stucky. They have four different receivers and 1449 01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:12,000 Speaker 1: the tight end that have that are now in the portal. 1450 01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:14,559 Speaker 1: But it looks like Harton going to play in this game. 1451 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,840 Speaker 1: Looks like estimately going to play in this game as well. 1452 01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:20,439 Speaker 1: Between that stuff and you have this salty defense. So 1453 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:21,880 Speaker 1: I got to go with Notre Dame and that one 1454 01:09:21,880 --> 01:09:25,559 Speaker 1: for thirty five points. Next one, Friday, December twenty ninth, 1455 01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:28,960 Speaker 1: the Liberty Ball in Memphis was able to go out 1456 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 1: and get the Memphis Tigers to play in this one. 1457 01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:33,960 Speaker 2: Their opponent is Iowa State. Who do you like in 1458 01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:34,720 Speaker 2: this one? For a time. 1459 01:09:35,280 --> 01:09:38,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, Cyclones are eight and a half point favorites in 1460 01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:40,519 Speaker 3: this and it's easy to see why. I mean, they 1461 01:09:40,600 --> 01:09:44,519 Speaker 3: beat Kansas State, who is a pretty dun accomplished team 1462 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:47,240 Speaker 3: in their final game. They really haven't been hit by 1463 01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 3: the portal too much. They do have two of their 1464 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:52,240 Speaker 3: running backs in the portal, but they haven't. Their ranked 1465 01:09:52,280 --> 01:09:56,200 Speaker 3: ninety seventh in rush offense anyways, it's basically been rock 1466 01:09:56,240 --> 01:09:59,280 Speaker 3: Obec's kid, Anthony Beck, who has done most of the 1467 01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:01,560 Speaker 3: heavy lifting on offense, as they have one hundred and 1468 01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:04,719 Speaker 3: twenty first success rate on oh which is the exact 1469 01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:07,599 Speaker 3: opposite their defense, which they're a top twenty five unit 1470 01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:11,000 Speaker 3: on both sides, be it pass or run. Playing against 1471 01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:14,120 Speaker 3: a Memphis team that just has a brutal run defense, 1472 01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:16,519 Speaker 3: real defense in general, one hundred and twenty six against 1473 01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:19,639 Speaker 3: the run, ninety ninth against the pass. Lost to SMU, 1474 01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:23,640 Speaker 3: Missouri and Tulane. We're all pretty good teams, but I 1475 01:10:23,680 --> 01:10:26,160 Speaker 3: just think that, you know, the Matt Campbell led Iowa 1476 01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:27,559 Speaker 3: State team is going to be a little bit too 1477 01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:32,000 Speaker 3: much for Memphis. Thirty confidence points on the Cyclones. 1478 01:10:32,880 --> 01:10:35,840 Speaker 5: Going twenty one on Iowa State. The Memphis defense is 1479 01:10:35,960 --> 01:10:38,280 Speaker 5: terrible one Iowa State. It's just going to be more 1480 01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:41,760 Speaker 5: physical football team. So twenty one points for I'm. 1481 01:10:41,200 --> 01:10:43,519 Speaker 1: Going twenty nine on Iowa State. And yeah, it's you know, 1482 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:45,560 Speaker 1: they got to go into Memphis. The only thing that 1483 01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:47,840 Speaker 1: brought that down a little bit for me. But yeah, 1484 01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:50,719 Speaker 1: I just trust that team more. I certainly don't trust 1485 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:53,479 Speaker 1: Ryan Silverfield, that coaching staff at Memphis. It's got to 1486 01:10:53,479 --> 01:10:55,639 Speaker 1: go with the Iowa State and that one last game 1487 01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:58,240 Speaker 1: on Friday, December twenty ninth, the cotton Ball. We have 1488 01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:00,880 Speaker 1: Ohio State here in Missouri, we've the new year six 1489 01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:01,920 Speaker 1: games for a time on. 1490 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,639 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one? Yeah, we've got. 1491 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:08,840 Speaker 3: Missouri is actually a one point favorite believer or not. 1492 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:12,320 Speaker 3: And I got to say I am on the Missouri 1493 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:15,160 Speaker 3: tip as well, because let's look at it. I mean, 1494 01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:18,640 Speaker 3: you've got the Kyle McCord factor coming in here. We 1495 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,639 Speaker 3: don't know what to expect, we don't know what is 1496 01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:23,679 Speaker 3: you know, is it going to be Devin Brown coming 1497 01:11:23,680 --> 01:11:26,600 Speaker 3: back from injury. Probably I would assume it's going to 1498 01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:28,839 Speaker 3: be the guy there. And then with on the other side, 1499 01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:34,680 Speaker 3: you have obviously coach Eli Drinkwitz standing on business. This 1500 01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:38,439 Speaker 3: is a big game from Missouri as opposed to Ohio State. 1501 01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:40,520 Speaker 3: You know, kind of looking at is a disappointment. 1502 01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:42,120 Speaker 2: Give me the. 1503 01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:46,559 Speaker 3: Motivation of the Tigers over a retooling Ohio State team. 1504 01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:48,880 Speaker 3: Twelve confidence points on Missouri. 1505 01:11:50,520 --> 01:11:53,040 Speaker 5: I'm going thirteen on Missouri. Kind of believed in them 1506 01:11:53,320 --> 01:11:56,240 Speaker 5: most of the season. A high state is influx, a 1507 01:11:56,240 --> 01:11:59,360 Speaker 5: lot of guys jumped in the portal. Nothing crazy other 1508 01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:02,080 Speaker 5: you know, Mcory obviously gets the attention. Julian Fleming is 1509 01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:06,080 Speaker 5: the third wide receiver, but just a sort of a 1510 01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:09,400 Speaker 5: transition period for Ryan Day. Having launched to Michigan three 1511 01:12:09,720 --> 01:12:11,439 Speaker 5: three times a row. He's going to hit the portal big. 1512 01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:12,840 Speaker 5: They're going to get a lot of good guys. They're 1513 01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:15,880 Speaker 5: gonn have a really good recruiting class, but that's the focus. 1514 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,360 Speaker 5: I don't think the focus is on this game as much, 1515 01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:19,960 Speaker 5: and I don't think they're going to win. So give 1516 01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 5: me Missouri thirteen points. 1517 01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:23,680 Speaker 1: I'm also going with Missouri in this one. Don't have 1518 01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:26,719 Speaker 1: any opt outs yet. Eli drinkoz Is said he expects 1519 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:29,679 Speaker 1: that basically the whole roster to be there, which would 1520 01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:31,960 Speaker 1: be a big thing for them. Ohio Sate, you can't 1521 01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:34,400 Speaker 1: say the same thing. I expect Marvin Harrison Junior to 1522 01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:37,000 Speaker 1: opt out. He hasn't done it yet, but once you do, 1523 01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:39,880 Speaker 1: you're out. McCord like you guys mentioned Julian Fleming gun 1524 01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:42,840 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the offensive firepower down and for 1525 01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:46,760 Speaker 1: all time was mentioned. The motivation discrepancy here. Ohio State 1526 01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:48,920 Speaker 1: don't want to be in this bowl game. Missouri badly 1527 01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:50,680 Speaker 1: wants to win it. So I'm going to Missouri for 1528 01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:54,639 Speaker 1: sixteen points. Next one, moving to Saturday, December thirty, if 1529 01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:57,000 Speaker 1: we've got the peach ball, Penn State taking on Ole 1530 01:12:57,040 --> 01:12:57,680 Speaker 1: miss in this one? 1531 01:12:57,680 --> 01:12:58,760 Speaker 2: Who do you got here for a time? 1532 01:12:59,600 --> 01:12:59,880 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1533 01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:03,920 Speaker 3: This is a three and a half point advantage on 1534 01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:08,760 Speaker 3: the spread. Four. Penn State just fired offensive coordinator Mike 1535 01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:13,799 Speaker 3: Yersich obviously a lot of turmoil there with James Franklin 1536 01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:17,599 Speaker 3: and company getting booed going in against Michigan and their 1537 01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:20,080 Speaker 3: offense has been struggling seventy third in the past forty 1538 01:13:20,080 --> 01:13:22,760 Speaker 3: eighth running. I think we probably see Fishanu opt out. 1539 01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:25,840 Speaker 3: And defensively, I mean they were incredible were they were 1540 01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:29,280 Speaker 3: big ten defense, twelve points per game allowed, first in 1541 01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:33,160 Speaker 3: terms of yards per play and success rate. Defensively, this 1542 01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:35,519 Speaker 3: is an incredible d and They're playing in an old 1543 01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:39,000 Speaker 3: Miss team that you know had pretty light in terms 1544 01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:43,679 Speaker 3: of the portal impact, but is offensively. You can roll 1545 01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 3: fifteenth and passing thirty second in the run, but can 1546 01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:50,960 Speaker 3: their defense bow up? You know that really has been 1547 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:55,160 Speaker 3: an issue. But they beat everyone except Uga and Bama, 1548 01:13:55,600 --> 01:13:59,360 Speaker 3: you know, with seventy eight percent plus winning specancies except 1549 01:13:59,400 --> 01:14:03,880 Speaker 3: for LSU. I gotta go with it. I'm gonna go contrarian. 1550 01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:08,200 Speaker 3: Give me Ole Miss only seven confidence points to beat 1551 01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:08,920 Speaker 3: Penn State. 1552 01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:13,040 Speaker 5: I'm only going eight points, but I'm gonna go Penn State. 1553 01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:14,840 Speaker 5: This is the battle of coaches. They can't win the 1554 01:14:14,840 --> 01:14:17,599 Speaker 5: big one. But I like the defense of Penn State 1555 01:14:17,680 --> 01:14:19,799 Speaker 5: better than I like the offense a little miss, So 1556 01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:21,160 Speaker 5: eight points Penn State. 1557 01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:23,320 Speaker 1: I also have eight points on Penn State, and for 1558 01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:25,360 Speaker 1: a lot of the reason that Farrell just sighed, I 1559 01:14:25,640 --> 01:14:28,960 Speaker 1: trust the defense the most of any unit on the 1560 01:14:28,960 --> 01:14:32,160 Speaker 1: field in this one. But yeah, I can't get there 1561 01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:34,559 Speaker 1: higher to get to a double digit points, so I'll 1562 01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:37,960 Speaker 1: go eight with Penn State. Moving to the next one 1563 01:14:38,000 --> 01:14:41,040 Speaker 1: on Saturday, December thirtieth, the Music City Bowl, Maryland taking 1564 01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:42,640 Speaker 1: on Auburn in this one, Who do you got here? 1565 01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:43,240 Speaker 2: For a time. 1566 01:14:44,280 --> 01:14:48,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, Auburn Maryland. Auburn favored by two and a half points, 1567 01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:51,519 Speaker 3: believe it or not, and that's despite their terrible pass 1568 01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:55,919 Speaker 3: offense eighty eighth nationally. But their roster is mostly intact 1569 01:14:56,479 --> 01:14:58,439 Speaker 3: in terms of their wins though. You look at Auburn, 1570 01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:03,240 Speaker 3: U Mass cal Amford, Mississippi State, Vandy, Arkansas. They lost 1571 01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:06,559 Speaker 3: New Mexico State thirty one to ten playing Maryland, who 1572 01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:10,320 Speaker 3: defensively that'shal will underrated twenty first in yards for past 1573 01:15:10,400 --> 01:15:14,760 Speaker 3: thirty third and EPA. And they started obviously five and zero, 1574 01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:19,000 Speaker 3: finish two and five. Didn't finish particularly well obviously, but 1575 01:15:19,520 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 3: you know, did play Michigan as well as anybody in 1576 01:15:22,479 --> 01:15:25,599 Speaker 3: the country forty five percent win expectancy against them. So 1577 01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:28,240 Speaker 3: you know, I'm gonna go here. I'm going to take 1578 01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:31,799 Speaker 3: Maryland low points in the confidence side, but six points 1579 01:15:31,880 --> 01:15:34,439 Speaker 3: give me Maryland to upset Auburn. 1580 01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:36,840 Speaker 5: I'm going to go Auburn here for fourteen. I think 1581 01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:38,919 Speaker 5: they're gonna be able to run the football against Maryland. 1582 01:15:39,640 --> 01:15:42,000 Speaker 5: Not really impressed with Maryland after they're hot start, and 1583 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:43,800 Speaker 5: I think Auburn, you know, got a lot out of 1584 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:47,960 Speaker 5: playing the loss to New Mexico State actually helped them 1585 01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:50,519 Speaker 5: and in playing it, you know, tough against Alabama, but 1586 01:15:50,600 --> 01:15:52,479 Speaker 5: they got a little bit of confidence here, so they 1587 01:15:52,520 --> 01:15:54,000 Speaker 5: won't be able to throw the ball, but they able 1588 01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:55,000 Speaker 5: to run it. So give me all that. 1589 01:15:55,120 --> 01:15:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm going Auburn as well for ten. As long as 1590 01:15:57,320 --> 01:15:59,360 Speaker 1: they show up engage, they're going to win this game. 1591 01:15:59,479 --> 01:16:01,720 Speaker 1: Right there is there is that New Mexico State game 1592 01:16:01,760 --> 01:16:04,360 Speaker 1: where they were not engaged. But Auburn against some of 1593 01:16:04,360 --> 01:16:08,400 Speaker 1: these better opponents Alabama, Georgia played really really well impressed me, 1594 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:10,600 Speaker 1: you know, and having to play one handed with the 1595 01:16:10,680 --> 01:16:12,479 Speaker 1: running game whatever, they're going to be able to run 1596 01:16:12,479 --> 01:16:13,360 Speaker 1: on Maryland in this one. 1597 01:16:13,400 --> 01:16:14,759 Speaker 2: So I'm going to go ten for Auburn. 1598 01:16:15,080 --> 01:16:17,760 Speaker 1: Moving to our next one on Saturday, December thirtieth, the 1599 01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:21,800 Speaker 1: Orange Ball, the jilted Lover Florida State seminole has got 1600 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:23,519 Speaker 1: to pick up the pieces in this one and take 1601 01:16:23,560 --> 01:16:26,320 Speaker 1: on Georgia, who Georgia on a much lesser scale. They 1602 01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:28,160 Speaker 1: feel aggrieved as well, So you have sort of the 1603 01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:31,400 Speaker 1: agreedball between the five and sixteenth the final playoff rankings. 1604 01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:32,960 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one for a time. 1605 01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:36,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, jilted Lover is right, but can they pick up 1606 01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:39,320 Speaker 3: the pieces, that's the question, and they have to go 1607 01:16:39,360 --> 01:16:44,800 Speaker 3: and play the back to back defending national champion Georgia Bulldogs. 1608 01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 3: I mean, good luck with that. There is a reason 1609 01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:50,559 Speaker 3: why this is a fourteen point spread in favor of Georgia. 1610 01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:54,200 Speaker 3: I am going I'm pushing all my chips in on 1611 01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:57,120 Speaker 3: this one, forty two points on the Dogs. 1612 01:16:58,160 --> 01:17:00,160 Speaker 5: I didn't go as high as I thought about on 1613 01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:03,080 Speaker 5: his eyes that I'm going twenty seven on Georgia. The 1614 01:17:03,120 --> 01:17:06,639 Speaker 5: only reason being is, you know, there's there's so much anger, 1615 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:10,360 Speaker 5: There's so much with Florida State here. I don't believe 1616 01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:12,240 Speaker 5: in Radamaker, but I think we're going to see a 1617 01:17:12,280 --> 01:17:15,840 Speaker 5: lot of opt outs for Georgia NFL wise. You know, 1618 01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:17,840 Speaker 5: the portal is going to be fine, but the NFL wise, 1619 01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:19,479 Speaker 5: you canna see a bunch of guys. I don't think 1620 01:17:19,720 --> 01:17:21,479 Speaker 5: ours is going to play. There's a few other guys 1621 01:17:21,479 --> 01:17:24,160 Speaker 5: I think might sit this one out. So twenty seven 1622 01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:27,360 Speaker 5: for Florida. I mean for Georgia to win this one. 1623 01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 5: I just didn't go as high as everybody else. 1624 01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:31,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go forty on Georgia. 1625 01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:34,679 Speaker 1: The Florida State offense, we speaks for itself without Jordan 1626 01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:37,599 Speaker 1: Travis mean, it's hard for them to move the ball. 1627 01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:40,240 Speaker 1: Tate Ronemaker looks like you're gonna be backing this one, 1628 01:17:40,280 --> 01:17:43,599 Speaker 1: but Tate Rodamaker is not good. Georgia will have some 1629 01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:45,639 Speaker 1: of the opt outs, but they just have so much 1630 01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 1: talent there. 1631 01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:48,240 Speaker 2: You know, the year at the year at the year. 1632 01:17:48,479 --> 01:17:49,920 Speaker 1: I got to go with Georgia and that one for 1633 01:17:49,920 --> 01:17:54,000 Speaker 1: forty last game on Saturday, December thirtieth, the Arizona bar 1634 01:17:54,120 --> 01:17:59,759 Speaker 1: stool Ball between Toledo and Wyoming. Toledo loses their quarterback 1635 01:17:59,840 --> 01:18:01,360 Speaker 1: day Kwon Finn for this game? 1636 01:18:01,400 --> 01:18:02,559 Speaker 2: Will that have any effect? 1637 01:18:02,600 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 1: They got to get off the mat that he's lost 1638 01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:06,479 Speaker 1: to Miami Ohio and the MAC Championship game and you 1639 01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:09,320 Speaker 1: got Craig Ball and the hard know is why I'm 1640 01:18:09,360 --> 01:18:12,040 Speaker 1: and cowboys in this one. I always seem to sneak 1641 01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:14,760 Speaker 1: up on people in ambush and ambush and front time. 1642 01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:16,559 Speaker 2: Do you think they're able to do that in this one? 1643 01:18:17,320 --> 01:18:17,599 Speaker 5: Yeah? 1644 01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:21,120 Speaker 3: Well with Toledo, as you mentioned, Dekwon Finn starting quarterback 1645 01:18:21,200 --> 01:18:23,519 Speaker 3: is in the portal, as is their starting left guard 1646 01:18:23,640 --> 01:18:26,880 Speaker 3: Vinnie Scurry. And I think it's pretty safe to say 1647 01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:31,240 Speaker 3: that Quinny and Mitchell their star cornerback will probably opt 1648 01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:33,240 Speaker 3: out for the NFL. I don't see any reason why 1649 01:18:33,320 --> 01:18:36,120 Speaker 3: he would play in the Arizona Bowl when the guy's 1650 01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:38,920 Speaker 3: going to be, you know, probably a late first second 1651 01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:44,839 Speaker 3: round pick. With Toledo, they won eleven straight until Miami, 1652 01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:47,519 Speaker 3: Ohio beat them in the MAC Title Game. But as 1653 01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:50,120 Speaker 3: discussed with the portal entries, this is a different team 1654 01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:54,080 Speaker 3: with Wyoming, no portal effect at all, whatsoever. You know, 1655 01:18:54,640 --> 01:18:58,960 Speaker 3: nothing teams beat. They beat Nevada, Hawaii, Colorado State, Fresno, 1656 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:02,000 Speaker 3: and Texas Tech and Appy. It's a pretty good set 1657 01:19:02,040 --> 01:19:04,559 Speaker 3: of of wins. You know, they lost to Boise State, 1658 01:19:04,680 --> 01:19:08,559 Speaker 3: UNLV and air Force, all credible teams. Like everything makes 1659 01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:12,559 Speaker 3: sense to me. With Wyoming, they're intact a hell of 1660 01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:16,160 Speaker 3: a lot less going on. I'm gonna take Wyoming for 1661 01:19:16,520 --> 01:19:19,920 Speaker 3: twenty eight confidence points, and this is a pick them 1662 01:19:20,439 --> 01:19:22,120 Speaker 3: right now in terms of the spread. 1663 01:19:22,680 --> 01:19:24,680 Speaker 5: I like Toledo here. They disappointed me in the MAC 1664 01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:27,240 Speaker 5: Championship game and I know they're living their quarterback, but 1665 01:19:27,360 --> 01:19:29,720 Speaker 5: I still think they're gonna be a better football team here. 1666 01:19:29,760 --> 01:19:32,799 Speaker 5: I think they have more depth than people expect. Nineteen 1667 01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:34,719 Speaker 5: points Toledo to win this game. 1668 01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:39,639 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Wyoming for twelve. I didn't love Toledo 1669 01:19:39,720 --> 01:19:42,080 Speaker 1: this year. You know, they played down some of the teams, 1670 01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:44,519 Speaker 1: and then in the MAC title game, obviously Miami of 1671 01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:47,040 Speaker 1: Ohio was able to ambush them, upset them in that one. 1672 01:19:47,280 --> 01:19:49,960 Speaker 1: Wyoming kind of plays like Miami of Ohio, don't they. 1673 01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:53,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you have the slow, grinded out offense, the 1674 01:19:53,040 --> 01:19:55,360 Speaker 1: methodical thing, We're not gonna beat ourselves, and then they 1675 01:19:55,360 --> 01:19:57,680 Speaker 1: play the salty d I think the matchup well in 1676 01:19:57,720 --> 01:19:59,280 Speaker 1: this one Againstledo's backup quarterbacks. 1677 01:19:59,320 --> 01:20:02,160 Speaker 2: I'm going twelve Wyoming. Now we move into New Year's 1678 01:20:02,240 --> 01:20:03,400 Speaker 2: Day Monday. 1679 01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:05,719 Speaker 1: This year, we have a Monday New Year's Day starting 1680 01:20:05,720 --> 01:20:09,280 Speaker 1: out with the relyaquest ball between LSU and Wisconsin. 1681 01:20:09,360 --> 01:20:10,719 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one for a time? 1682 01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:15,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, with LSU just we know we're getting out of them, 1683 01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:20,720 Speaker 3: which is just a absolutely horrific defense. One hundred and 1684 01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:23,120 Speaker 3: twenty second against the run, one hundred and thirteenth against 1685 01:20:23,120 --> 01:20:26,040 Speaker 3: the past, one hundred and twenty sixth and EPA allowed. 1686 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:29,559 Speaker 3: But hey, they scored more points per game than any 1687 01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:31,920 Speaker 3: other team in the country. You know, they lost to 1688 01:20:31,960 --> 01:20:35,120 Speaker 3: Old Miss Florida State or Bama. But I mean, you 1689 01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:37,960 Speaker 3: can't really fault him for that. Those were all excellent teams. 1690 01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:41,000 Speaker 3: And then over there on the other side with Wisconsin 1691 01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:45,679 Speaker 3: just a terrible passing offense. So it's the immovable object 1692 01:20:45,760 --> 01:20:48,240 Speaker 3: against the movable force. Is that what would be against 1693 01:20:48,240 --> 01:20:52,559 Speaker 3: the horrible pass the defensive LSU and Wisconsin. You know, 1694 01:20:53,040 --> 01:20:55,200 Speaker 3: Phil Longo was not taken the way that they thought 1695 01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:59,480 Speaker 3: he would lost, Ohio, State, Wazoo, Indiana, Northwestern. 1696 01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:04,880 Speaker 4: Just isn't the Wisconsin team of old? Give me LSU. 1697 01:21:05,080 --> 01:21:08,040 Speaker 3: Even if Daniels doesn't play, I still think Garrett and 1698 01:21:08,040 --> 01:21:11,040 Speaker 3: Nosmeyer will be able to carve up Wisconsin forty one 1699 01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:12,280 Speaker 3: points LSU. 1700 01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:16,880 Speaker 5: I got twenty six LSU just I know there's gonna 1701 01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:19,360 Speaker 5: be guys not playing, but it doesn't really matter. Wisconsin 1702 01:21:19,400 --> 01:21:23,200 Speaker 5: has a big disappointment this season, So twenty six LSU, 1703 01:21:23,360 --> 01:21:25,880 Speaker 5: even with the roster depth and the amount of four 1704 01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:27,680 Speaker 5: stars they have sitting on the bench, they're gonna win. 1705 01:21:29,040 --> 01:21:32,280 Speaker 1: I went twenty on LSU. I do have some trepidations 1706 01:21:32,320 --> 01:21:35,160 Speaker 1: with not hearing the news yet. On Jaydon Daniels, on 1707 01:21:35,320 --> 01:21:37,920 Speaker 1: My League Neighbors, on Brian Thomas, you know, those guys 1708 01:21:37,920 --> 01:21:40,559 Speaker 1: could enter the portal and then you have the terrible defense. 1709 01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:43,439 Speaker 1: But on the other side, Wisconsin Froton was talking about it. 1710 01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:45,840 Speaker 1: They can't throw the ball. We'll see if they can. 1711 01:21:45,960 --> 01:21:47,840 Speaker 1: They can get off the maw in that regard against 1712 01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:50,559 Speaker 1: this terrible LSU defense. But they're not gonna have Brailing 1713 01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:53,639 Speaker 1: Allen in this game, right and Chess Mlusy's already injured, 1714 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:56,160 Speaker 1: So I mean they might have to be a little 1715 01:21:56,200 --> 01:21:57,960 Speaker 1: bit one handed in this one, or maybe more than 1716 01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:00,519 Speaker 1: a little bit because of that, and because you as 1717 01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:02,559 Speaker 1: a good backup quarterback, and now I. 1718 01:22:02,520 --> 01:22:04,560 Speaker 2: Went with twenty on LSU. 1719 01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:07,479 Speaker 1: Next one, on New Year's Day, Tennessee against Iowa in 1720 01:22:07,560 --> 01:22:10,840 Speaker 1: the Citrus Baw. Kind of an interesting matchup here between 1721 01:22:10,840 --> 01:22:11,560 Speaker 1: good defenses. 1722 01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:12,920 Speaker 2: Who do you like in this one? For a time? 1723 01:22:13,760 --> 01:22:19,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, Tennessee scored seventeen combined points versus Georgia and missoo. 1724 01:22:19,520 --> 01:22:21,599 Speaker 3: You know over those two games late in the season, 1725 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:25,519 Speaker 3: twenty points versus A and M and Bama sixteen versus Florida. 1726 01:22:25,560 --> 01:22:28,720 Speaker 3: This just isn't the Josh Pipel offense that we've come 1727 01:22:28,760 --> 01:22:32,040 Speaker 3: to know and love. They're going to have turnage in Burrell. 1728 01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:36,360 Speaker 3: Two starting defensive backs are both in the portal and 1729 01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:40,559 Speaker 3: they're playing a Iowa team. Obviously, Cooper Jean's out one 1730 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:44,880 Speaker 3: hundred and thirty third and EPA success rate dead last 1731 01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:47,400 Speaker 3: in offense. That's just how it is. The signature win 1732 01:22:47,560 --> 01:22:53,439 Speaker 3: is against Wisconsin. I am going with Iowa against Joe Milton, 1733 01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:56,519 Speaker 3: who I don't believe. I never have, I never will 1734 01:22:57,439 --> 01:23:01,960 Speaker 3: nine confidence points on Iowa, even though Tennessee are seven 1735 01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:05,760 Speaker 3: and a half point favorites according to the books. 1736 01:23:06,200 --> 01:23:09,200 Speaker 5: I'm going twenty four for Tennessee. Iowa can't score. It 1737 01:23:09,400 --> 01:23:11,200 Speaker 5: just won't be able to score in this football game. 1738 01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:14,280 Speaker 5: Tennessee's defense isn't great, but i Was just stinks in 1739 01:23:14,360 --> 01:23:19,120 Speaker 5: every manner on offense. It's pathetic. You can't win if 1740 01:23:19,120 --> 01:23:21,920 Speaker 5: you don't score. I'm sorry, so give me twenty four 1741 01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:22,800 Speaker 5: points Tennessee. 1742 01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:25,719 Speaker 1: I wish we could do confidence points on the under 1743 01:23:25,760 --> 01:23:28,000 Speaker 1: in this game. Joe Milton is definitely not moving it 1744 01:23:28,040 --> 01:23:31,160 Speaker 1: against Iowa, and yeah, Iowa can't move it on anybody. 1745 01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:35,479 Speaker 1: I went Iowa for nine. They typically interference play well 1746 01:23:35,520 --> 01:23:38,599 Speaker 1: in the ball games. And it's Joe Milton against Iowa defense. 1747 01:23:38,640 --> 01:23:41,360 Speaker 1: And yeah, I know Dejion is out and everything like that, 1748 01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:45,240 Speaker 1: and Iowa's offense stinks, but I just Joe Milton going 1749 01:23:45,240 --> 01:23:47,760 Speaker 1: into that good defense. I don't think that's going to 1750 01:23:47,880 --> 01:23:49,800 Speaker 1: end well for Tennessee. So I think I was able 1751 01:23:49,800 --> 01:23:51,799 Speaker 1: to grind one out there. I'll go nine on Iowa. 1752 01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:53,320 Speaker 1: I think Forton at nine. 1753 01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:54,000 Speaker 2: On Iowa as well. 1754 01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:57,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, Yeah, we're the same thor for the same We're. 1755 01:23:57,400 --> 01:24:01,040 Speaker 2: Getting into our last three ball to start off. 1756 01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:03,679 Speaker 1: Then in the last tour the College Football Playoff ones, 1757 01:24:03,680 --> 01:24:06,439 Speaker 1: but if es the ball New Year's Day, Oregon taking 1758 01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:10,360 Speaker 1: on Liberty for a time. Do you think Cinderella in 1759 01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:13,040 Speaker 1: this one for Liberty or do you think the heavily 1760 01:24:13,040 --> 01:24:15,240 Speaker 1: favored Oregon Ducks are going to hold the serf man. 1761 01:24:15,520 --> 01:24:18,400 Speaker 3: Oregon is favored by sixteen points here, and I mean 1762 01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:21,840 Speaker 3: it's obvious why this is. They lost to one team 1763 01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:26,280 Speaker 3: all year and pretty much dominated everybody else. It's hard 1764 01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:30,519 Speaker 3: to I mean, we'll all due respect to Liberty, it's 1765 01:24:30,560 --> 01:24:34,959 Speaker 3: hard to take them here. I'm going to take Oregon 1766 01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:37,640 Speaker 3: and I'm not gonna think twice about it. Give me 1767 01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:40,000 Speaker 3: forty confidence points on the Ducks. 1768 01:24:40,320 --> 01:24:44,760 Speaker 5: I'm going to Oregon for sixteen. You know, Liberty could 1769 01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:47,040 Speaker 5: fully upset who knows. I don't think they will. I'm 1770 01:24:47,040 --> 01:24:48,519 Speaker 5: not gonna go as high as everybody else still, but 1771 01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:49,799 Speaker 5: give me Orgon for sixteen. 1772 01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:53,800 Speaker 2: I went Oregon for forty one. Here. I hope I'm wrong. 1773 01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:55,599 Speaker 2: I hope I'm wrong. I hope Liberty. 1774 01:24:55,640 --> 01:24:57,879 Speaker 1: I hope we get one of those those awesome upsete 1775 01:24:58,160 --> 01:25:00,639 Speaker 1: Poise State back in the day. You always love when 1776 01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:03,080 Speaker 1: the best G five team gets to rise up in competition. 1777 01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:04,559 Speaker 2: Try to pull up a big upset play. 1778 01:25:04,960 --> 01:25:06,639 Speaker 1: It'd be tough, you know, hard to see it coming 1779 01:25:06,680 --> 01:25:09,840 Speaker 1: in this one, especially since bo Nicks already know it's 1780 01:25:09,880 --> 01:25:12,360 Speaker 1: he gonna play. It looks like Oregon's gonna have more 1781 01:25:12,439 --> 01:25:14,960 Speaker 1: or less a full compliment that could be tough for 1782 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:15,840 Speaker 1: Liberty in this one. 1783 01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:17,479 Speaker 2: So I won forty one on Oregon. 1784 01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:20,840 Speaker 1: Last two boys college football playoff games moving up to 1785 01:25:20,920 --> 01:25:25,360 Speaker 1: Monday night now the Rose Ball Michigan and Alabama got 1786 01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:27,680 Speaker 1: a Titanic matchup beer. Some people think this is the 1787 01:25:27,800 --> 01:25:30,599 Speaker 1: national title game, right, like, you know, except we're getting 1788 01:25:30,640 --> 01:25:32,800 Speaker 1: at the one before. What do you like in this 1789 01:25:32,840 --> 01:25:33,599 Speaker 1: one for a time? 1790 01:25:34,240 --> 01:25:36,360 Speaker 3: Well, I like that I will be in attendance for 1791 01:25:36,439 --> 01:25:39,880 Speaker 3: this one at the Rose Bowl up the up in Pasadena, 1792 01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:41,559 Speaker 3: up the Highway, So I like that. 1793 01:25:42,160 --> 01:25:44,479 Speaker 4: But outside of that, I am. 1794 01:25:44,400 --> 01:25:47,760 Speaker 3: Going to stay with I'm gonna I'm gonna go with 1795 01:25:47,880 --> 01:25:50,000 Speaker 3: the team that I had picked at the beginning of 1796 01:25:50,040 --> 01:25:53,240 Speaker 3: the season, that I had put some money down on 1797 01:25:53,320 --> 01:25:56,880 Speaker 3: to win the national championship. I'm going to stay with Michigan. 1798 01:25:57,720 --> 01:26:00,880 Speaker 3: It feels like their year. I mean, all of the 1799 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:03,880 Speaker 3: controversy this is they have been the team that everybody's 1800 01:26:03,920 --> 01:26:07,479 Speaker 3: been talking about. It only seems fitting that Harbaugh goes 1801 01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:10,880 Speaker 3: and sees it through and wins the national title. So 1802 01:26:10,920 --> 01:26:13,280 Speaker 3: I'm going with the team of destiny. They're one and 1803 01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:15,680 Speaker 3: a half point favorites, so I mean, it's pretty much 1804 01:26:15,680 --> 01:26:16,760 Speaker 3: am money line play. 1805 01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:18,839 Speaker 4: I'm gonna take Michigan. 1806 01:26:20,200 --> 01:26:24,080 Speaker 5: I'm taking Michigan too. I'm gonna go nine points. Not 1807 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:27,120 Speaker 5: a lot of confidence, but nine's still a pretty good 1808 01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:29,080 Speaker 5: number for a game like this which could go either way. 1809 01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:31,719 Speaker 5: You know, Harbaugh could be choke again in the playoff. 1810 01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:34,519 Speaker 5: I don't think he's gonna. I think they're ready for Alabama, 1811 01:26:34,520 --> 01:26:36,280 Speaker 5: and they match up pretty well with him. I know 1812 01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:39,000 Speaker 5: alabam has played well down the stretch, but give me 1813 01:26:39,040 --> 01:26:40,200 Speaker 5: Michigan here for nine. 1814 01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:44,200 Speaker 1: I went Michigan for thirty three in this and I'm 1815 01:26:44,200 --> 01:26:48,680 Speaker 1: pretty confident Michigan was also my preseason title winner. I 1816 01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:51,040 Speaker 1: haven't seen anything to change my mind in the slightest 1817 01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:54,000 Speaker 1: on that and Alabama week after week. I don't know 1818 01:26:54,040 --> 01:26:55,680 Speaker 1: how they win these games right like that. You know, 1819 01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:57,400 Speaker 1: some of them take pull it out of there, you know, 1820 01:26:57,439 --> 01:27:00,400 Speaker 1: wise or some of them. There's been injuries that George one. 1821 01:27:00,439 --> 01:27:02,360 Speaker 1: It wasn't either were those two things. It was one 1822 01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:04,559 Speaker 1: of the more bizarre game plans I've ever seen, especially 1823 01:27:04,600 --> 01:27:07,200 Speaker 1: offensively for a team, where they were just running into 1824 01:27:07,200 --> 01:27:09,120 Speaker 1: the strengths of the Alabama defense all the time, like 1825 01:27:09,120 --> 01:27:11,320 Speaker 1: they were choosing that in advance to go into that. 1826 01:27:11,720 --> 01:27:14,760 Speaker 1: So they've Georgia fed themselves into the wood chipper in 1827 01:27:14,800 --> 01:27:16,720 Speaker 1: that game. Can Alabama one more time? 1828 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:16,960 Speaker 6: Now? 1829 01:27:17,439 --> 01:27:17,800 Speaker 2: Do it? 1830 01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:20,240 Speaker 1: I don't think so, not against this Michigan team. I 1831 01:27:20,400 --> 01:27:22,960 Speaker 1: think Michigan drops a hammer in that one. Last game 1832 01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:26,960 Speaker 1: Boys Monday at New Year's Eve, eight forty five Eastern 1833 01:27:27,040 --> 01:27:30,240 Speaker 1: kicking this one the sugar ball, Washington taken on Texas. 1834 01:27:30,400 --> 01:27:31,800 Speaker 2: What do you like in this one? For a time? 1835 01:27:32,280 --> 01:27:36,720 Speaker 3: Damn well, Texas is a four point favorite here and 1836 01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:39,360 Speaker 3: you know it's it's easy to see why they had 1837 01:27:39,479 --> 01:27:43,640 Speaker 3: the big win over Oklahoma State style points and everything, 1838 01:27:43,720 --> 01:27:46,680 Speaker 3: But I am actually gonna take Washington. You know, I 1839 01:27:46,680 --> 01:27:48,839 Speaker 3: got a chance to watch them up close and personal 1840 01:27:48,920 --> 01:27:51,960 Speaker 3: twice this year, once against Arizona State. The other time 1841 01:27:52,040 --> 01:27:55,400 Speaker 3: was this past weekend at the PAC twelve Championship in 1842 01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:59,400 Speaker 3: Las Vegas. So I've been just you know, this past game, 1843 01:27:59,479 --> 01:28:03,400 Speaker 3: everybody picking Oregon. Everyone said, okay, Oregon, they lost last game, 1844 01:28:03,439 --> 01:28:05,760 Speaker 3: but they're going to take care of business here. And 1845 01:28:06,040 --> 01:28:09,479 Speaker 3: Michael Pennix made some beautiful throws. You know, the wide 1846 01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:13,599 Speaker 3: receivers again, Open Polk, McMillan, at Dunze. All of them 1847 01:28:13,600 --> 01:28:17,000 Speaker 3: had big plays. All of them were factors. Penix looked 1848 01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:18,960 Speaker 3: like I think he probably had his best game of 1849 01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 3: the year. Frankly made some just beautiful downfield throws. I 1850 01:28:23,960 --> 01:28:25,680 Speaker 3: guess I'm biased. I'm going to go with the PAC 1851 01:28:25,720 --> 01:28:29,439 Speaker 3: twelve here. Eighteen confidence points on the Washington Piskies. 1852 01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:33,160 Speaker 5: I got twenty on Texas. I like what Washington's done 1853 01:28:33,160 --> 01:28:36,320 Speaker 5: this season. You know, they played physical against Oregon, but 1854 01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:39,360 Speaker 5: I just think they're up against the Texas played very 1855 01:28:39,400 --> 01:28:43,400 Speaker 5: well against Oklahoma State. Quinn Ewers looked amazing. They've got 1856 01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:46,439 Speaker 5: more weapons, they've got more speed. I know Washington as 1857 01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:49,880 Speaker 5: wide receivers. I love Dylan Johnson, I like Michael Penix, 1858 01:28:49,920 --> 01:28:52,920 Speaker 5: but defensively, I worry a little bit about how they're 1859 01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:54,439 Speaker 5: going to be able to handle this Texas team that 1860 01:28:54,479 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 5: can run it on you, throw it on you. I 1861 01:28:56,600 --> 01:28:58,360 Speaker 5: just think that's going to probably wear them down and 1862 01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:00,840 Speaker 5: win this game. So twenty points on Texas. 1863 01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:03,880 Speaker 2: I went Texas for eleven in this one. 1864 01:29:04,200 --> 01:29:06,400 Speaker 1: I think this game is a fascinating matchup and it's 1865 01:29:06,400 --> 01:29:11,000 Speaker 1: going to be a fascinating handicap in that Texas they 1866 01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:14,080 Speaker 1: can erase your run game, but Washington has that ability 1867 01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:17,160 Speaker 1: to just go through the air and attack what Texas's 1868 01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:20,639 Speaker 1: relative defensive weaknesses will be interesting to see if Michael 1869 01:29:20,640 --> 01:29:23,719 Speaker 1: Pennix can play like Moury did earlier in the season 1870 01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:25,680 Speaker 1: and some of the games later on. But he did 1871 01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:27,719 Speaker 1: show something in the pac TO title game for sure, 1872 01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:30,719 Speaker 1: and Washington got back Jalen McMillan, so they have full 1873 01:29:30,800 --> 01:29:34,479 Speaker 1: compliment or receivers. Now a fascinating one. I did go 1874 01:29:34,520 --> 01:29:36,439 Speaker 1: a little bit lower in confidence just because of that 1875 01:29:36,560 --> 01:29:39,440 Speaker 1: because of the matchup, but I'm going to Texas for eleven. 1876 01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:40,480 Speaker 2: Boys. 1877 01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:43,600 Speaker 1: We got through forty two games.
