1 00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:16,080 Speaker 1: What's up, guys? 2 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,120 Speaker 2: How are you welcome into a New Year's Eve edition 3 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: of the Daily Juice podcast with me Matt Parralt. You 4 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,960 Speaker 2: guys can follow me across all my socials at Sports 5 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,120 Speaker 2: Talk Matt as we come to you after a night 6 00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 2: that I went to bed thinking we were going to 7 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 2: be waking up with a winning day. Instead we wake 8 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 2: up to a losing day. Unfortunately because of the basketball play. 9 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 2: The Creighton Blue Jays were up by eleven points with 10 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 2: three and a half to play, laying five at home. 11 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 2: I thought that was good. Instead we wake up and 12 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 2: the Jays win the game by four. So unfortunately we 13 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 2: do not get that bed right. We do get Seaton 14 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 2: Hall correct, they win, they cover on the road. Kawhi 15 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 2: Leonard scored thirty three points. Unfortunately his points and assists 16 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: that goes over because of the assist. 17 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: Number that he had last night, so. 18 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: He gets about thirty eight there, so he goes way 19 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 2: over thirty four and a half points and assists. But 20 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 2: the Colts to missed the playoffs. That bet did cash 21 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 2: for the majority of you guys, So we're going to 22 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 2: go ahead and count that for today because that's been 23 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 2: a consistent thing heading into week seventeen week eighteen rather 24 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: after week seventeen with the colts being eliminated, So we'll 25 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: count that at plus one sixty, So it's a two 26 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 2: and two day up a quarter of a unit. And 27 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 2: as I said yesterday, we're going to recalibrate everything and 28 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: kind of track it all after week eighteen, so I'll 29 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 2: tell you the full year after this year is over, 30 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 2: which is today. Today is the last last day of 31 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 2: the year. We will regardless of the outcome today, we 32 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 2: will have a winning year. Not a gigantic winning year, 33 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 2: but a winning year nonetheless, And with the future wagers 34 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: getting set to cash for us, we'll see what we 35 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,160 Speaker 2: wind up going. How many units we're going to be up. 36 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 2: It could be, you know, down twenty in twenty twenty four, 37 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: up twenty in twenty twenty five. So essentially the podcast 38 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: over two years would be flat. That's the nature of this. 39 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 2: And I think one of the more entertaining things about 40 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 2: the Daily Juice podcast is that we're trying to beat 41 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 2: the viig right, We're trying to get over fifty two 42 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 2: and a half percent. 43 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: That's very difficult to do. 44 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 2: And if you bet for two years consecutively, every day 45 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: for two years, you wind up flat. So if you 46 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 2: started with one thousand dollars, you wound up after two years, 47 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 2: you wound up with one thousand dollars. Are we paying 48 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 2: for entertainment, Yes, we're paying for entertainment. Are we enjoying ourselves? 49 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: But while we're doing it and having a good time? 50 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: Yes? 51 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: Is this going to send you on some tropical island vacation. No, 52 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: And that's sort of the nature of this podcast. There 53 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 2: are people out there that will tell you that they 54 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 2: beat their bookie and they they're the best at this, 55 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 2: and they're going to dominate for years, and they're going 56 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: to send you off to buyer Mercedes. That that's not 57 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 2: what this podcast is. It's never been what this podcast is. 58 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 2: It's about a community and watching games and enjoying games 59 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 2: and having fun. 60 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: So it's been a really fun year. This year has 61 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: been awesome. 62 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 2: I think we're looking forward to some really big things 63 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: to happen coming up in twenty twenty six. I think 64 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: we've got a chance to see where we go in 65 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 2: twenty six and I'm really excited to watch the direction 66 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 2: of everything in twenty twenty six. So we end it, 67 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 2: We end the year today, we have a chance to 68 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 2: do some big things and some fun things coming up. 69 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 2: So if you want to count the Cult game, it's 70 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 2: a winning day yesterday. If you don't want to count 71 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: the Cult game, it's a losing day yesterday. As we 72 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 2: head towards the final day of twenty twenty five, now 73 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 2: it's a Wednesday, we're going to give you a hard 74 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 2: Rock Bet Bet of the Day.

Let's start with Ohio State and their 96 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 2: game here against Miami. Now, look at last year Ohio 97 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 2: State won the national championship, but the first two games 98 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 2: were absolute blowouts. They scored over forty points in both 99 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 2: those games. And while Justin saying is not the same 100 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 2: as other quarterbacks we have seen for Ohio State, he 101 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 2: has played really, really well down the stretch. This Buckeye 102 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 2: team gets off to really fast starts, and I think 103 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 2: when you have as much time off as Ohio State 104 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: has had to prepare to see what Miami is going 105 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,799 Speaker 2: to bring to the table, I have a hard time 106 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: laying ten with Ohio State for the game, but I 107 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 2: don't have a hard time laying five and a half 108 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 2: for Ohio State in the first half. Ohio State in 109 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 2: the first half this year was extremely profitable betting them 110 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 2: to go ahead and get dominant performances in the first half, 111 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: coming out of the gates quickly ten to two and 112 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 2: one ATS in the first half for Ohio State, they 113 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: averaged a five point five percent cover They covered at 114 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 2: about an eighty percent eighty three point. 115 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 1: Three percent clip. That was second best in the country. 116 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 2: Only Texas Tech had a better percentage in the first 117 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:55,360 Speaker 2: half covering numbers than Ohio State. They were tremendous in 118 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 2: games in the Big Ten, they were remindious in the 119 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 2: non conference. They just got off to a really fast start. 120 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 2: And while I like Miami's season and what they have done, 121 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 2: I think we're overreacting a little bit about what they 122 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: did against Texas A and M in the lack of 123 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 2: quarterback play for Texas A and M. Because Carson Beck 124 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 2: is still a concern for me. Okay, I'm still not 125 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 2: in on Carson Beck. I'm still not jumping up and 126 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: down saying that he's a guy I want to be 127 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 2: backing in a playoff setting, on a neutral site setting. 128 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 2: Miami fans are excited. I think they should be, but 129 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna take. 130 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 1: Miami some time. 131 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 2: If they're gonna be in this game, I think they're 132 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 2: gonna be in the game late. I don't think they're 133 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 2: gonna be in the game early. I think that I 134 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 2: have a tough time scoring on a really difficult Ohio 135 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 2: State defense. 136 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: Early in the game. 137 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: Maybe Miami later in the second half will put some 138 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: offensive production together, but I think the Buckeye score a 139 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 2: lot here in the first half. 140 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: The Bucky score a lot. 141 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: In the game, and I'm gonna go ahead, and for 142 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 2: the hard rock bed of the day, we're gonna go ahead. 143 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 2: We're gonna say the five and a half in the 144 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 2: first half for Ohio State. Buck guys, minus five and 145 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,280 Speaker 2: a half first half against Miami. Tonight's here for them 146 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: to get a W, to get W for them to 147 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 2: be able to get a win here at minus one ten, 148 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 2: I like Ohio State here to win the game. I 149 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: don't mind Ohio State to cover, but I'm not interested 150 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 2: in laying this big number. I think the Buckeys come 151 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 2: off to a fast start in this game. Minus five 152 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: and a half, laying with the Buckeyes in the first 153 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: half up against Miami. Now, I do have a second 154 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 2: bet for this game. And it's going to go really contrarian. 155 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 2: We're seeing a ton of people say that the under 156 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 2: is the play. Okay, I think even what even betting 157 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 2: pros has podcasts out there saying the under is the play. 158 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 2: Let me tell you why I don't like the under 159 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 2: for this play again, Ohio State's offense here up against 160 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 2: this Miami defense. I think we are overvaluing what this 161 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,119 Speaker 2: Miami defense is capable of doing. And I just don't 162 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 2: believe the Buckeyes are going to be slowed down. On 163 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 2: the other side, I do think Miami's offense will be 164 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 2: able to put some points up on the board here, 165 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 2: maybe twenty up against it here, and I think it 166 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 2: could be very easily like a twenty eight to twenty 167 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 2: type of final. I have a hard time, on a 168 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: neutral field on a fast track, I have a hard 169 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 2: time seeing this game going under forty and a half points. 170 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: It's just too low, Okay. I mean it's just. 171 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 2: I look at the way these teams have played, I 172 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: look at the way the season has gone. I just 173 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 2: don't think that we're looking at you Jerry's world and 174 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: you say, well, the Cowboys do this, well, it's a 175 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: really fast track. It's good for offenses. It's good for 176 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: wide receivers. They make dynamic cuts. I know Miami away 177 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: from Home was four and one to the under this year. 178 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 2: I know Ohio State was six and zero to the 179 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 2: under this year, But forty and a half is the 180 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: lowest total of the year for both of these teams. Now, 181 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 2: Ohio State had a total of forty one and a 182 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,559 Speaker 2: half on the road against Wisconsin. That was because Wisconsin 183 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 2: got blanked. They couldn't score. They lost thirty four to nothing. 184 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 2: That's why that game went under the buck. I scoring 185 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 2: thirty four points would lead us to go to and over. 186 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 2: You could see the game against Texas, the fourteen to 187 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 2: seven game against Tech that was in August. That was 188 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: a long time ago. This is a different Buckeye team. 189 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 2: You can say, well, against Indiana it was a thirteen 190 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 2: to ten final, Okay, I get it. But the A 191 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 2: and M and the Indiana teams that we saw defensively, 192 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 2: for Miami and Ohio State, I just don't think this 193 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 2: is going to be the same. You look at where 194 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 2: we go here from an offensive standpoint, and what Miami 195 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 2: skill players should be able to do, at least late 196 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 2: in the game. They should have opportunities to score. As 197 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 2: long as Carson Beck's not throwing interceptions, they should have 198 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 2: opportunities to put some points up on the board. On 199 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: the flip side in the Ohio State equally, they scored 200 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 2: twenty seven against Michigan, they scored forty eight against UCLA. 201 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 2: They scored thirty four against Illinois. Got going down the 202 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 2: line here and you look at again the wide receivers 203 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 2: for Ohio State, I think are going to be able 204 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: to make plays. 205 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:52,440 Speaker 1: Again. 206 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 2: If the A and M offense really Marcel Reid was 207 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 2: a better quarterback, I think you were seeing a lot 208 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 2: more points than three points on the board for and 209 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: A and M would have. 210 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 1: Won that football game. 211 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 2: I mean not to put it all on the quarterback 212 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 2: for A and M, but it really was all on 213 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 2: the quarterback for A and M. 214 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: I think the Buckeyes can run the ball. 215 00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 2: I know the defensive front is really good for Miami, 216 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 2: but the offensive line for the Buckeyes is the NFL 217 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 2: cut caliber. I mean, we've seen this year and in 218 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 2: year out, the Buckeyes win the line of scrimmage. So 219 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: while that Miami front might be able to get up 220 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 2: the field and cause some problems in the passing attack. 221 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: I think late in the game, I think we see 222 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 2: offense again. I like Ohio State early in this game 223 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: to get off to a fast start, to be leading 224 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 2: in halftime by a touchdown or more, and then I 225 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 2: think you have a Buckeye. 226 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 1: Team that we can get into an over situation. 227 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 2: I think you can take team total Ohio State by 228 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 2: themselves if they want, if you want to. But I 229 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 2: think you're going to see a bit more offense in 230 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 2: the second half in games, and a bad way of 231 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 2: playing it. If we get a really slow start here 232 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: in this game and it gets to be you know, 233 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 2: three not three nothing after the first quarter, I think 234 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 2: you probably get a much lower number than forty and 235 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 2: a half. You might get thirty four, thirty five, somewhere 236 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 2: in that range. For an over perspective. I like that 237 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 2: even more. But I just think this total is too low. 238 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 2: I seen too much group think on the under that 239 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 2: everyone just assumed this game is going to be low scoring. 240 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 2: It's going to be just like you know, the Big 241 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 2: Ten title game, and just like the quarterfinal game here. 242 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 2: I think with the layoff for the Buckeyes and with 243 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 2: this quarterback situation for Ohio State, Buck guys in the 244 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 2: first half, and I'm going contrarian. I'm playing the over 245 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 2: over forty and a half at minus one ten for 246 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 2: one point one units. Now, I do have one NBA 247 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 2: play to get into with here today in Minnesota is 248 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 2: taking on the Atlanta Hawks on the road. The Hawks 249 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 2: have lost seven games in a row. Timberwolves are going 250 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 2: to see Christophe Perzingis play for Atlanta, and I think 251 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 2: there's a little bit of a an overreaction to this, 252 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,559 Speaker 2: but a slight overreaction to this in terms of what 253 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 2: people think that Christoph is going to do here coming 254 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 2: back after the POT situation. It's something that I have 255 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 2: dealt with myself in a different way, but I have that. 256 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,320 Speaker 2: I mean, part of some of my health issues over 257 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,439 Speaker 2: the last couple of years was through a diagnosis of POTS, 258 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 2: which is we don't need to go into all this today, 259 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 2: but it's basically a blood pressure issue that causes you 260 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 2: to feel lightheaded and tired and drowsy, and it's, you know, 261 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 2: I have a different set of symptoms than what I've 262 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,439 Speaker 2: read for what Perzingis has. I don't have the debilitating, 263 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 2: you know, fatigue that he has according to reports, but 264 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,880 Speaker 2: he hasn't played for ten games, and when you're dealing 265 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 2: with something like this, you don't just like get on 266 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 2: the court and play forty minutes. So while defensively I 267 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 2: think it could help Atlanta, I don't think it's that 268 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 2: big of a deal. Trey Young is not playing. Trey 269 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 2: Young is out in Atlanta on this team has been 270 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,360 Speaker 2: reeling because of it. Timberwolves have been sort of up 271 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 2: and down. But this Timberwolves team on the road has 272 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 2: been pretty productive offensively, and they're averaging just about one 273 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty four points per game on the road 274 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 2: this year, one hundred and twenty three point nine on 275 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 2: the road. They've averaged one hundred and twenty seven points 276 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 2: over their last three games, and their team total here 277 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 2: is set at one twenty three and a half. If 278 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,439 Speaker 2: we just get an average game out of the Timberwolves, 279 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 2: we should be good here. In particular, when you look 280 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 2: at the Hawks defensively, they're a mess. They're five and 281 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 2: eleven at home this year, and here is what they've 282 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 2: given up during this seven game losing streak one thirty three, 283 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 2: one twenty six, one fifty two, one twenty six, one 284 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 2: twenty six, one twenty eight and one forty. We just 285 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: need to give up one twenty six again, just give 286 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 2: up the number that they've been giving up. You give 287 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: up one twenty six and we're good. We're over one 288 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 2: twenty three and a half team total for the for 289 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,679 Speaker 2: the Timberwolves, and we go over. 290 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 1: I just I don't. 291 00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 2: Really want to back the Hawks here just because Prinsing 292 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 2: is coming back. Maybe he does play and help out 293 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: a lot, but I think it'll be more on the 294 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 2: offensive end than the defensive end. Just yes, he's a 295 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 2: shot blocker, but I think his legs could be a 296 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 2: big issue in how many minutes he's going to play here, 297 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 2: So they need him on the offensive end as much 298 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 2: as the defensive end. But I'm not worried about the 299 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 2: t Wolves scoring because of Perzingis. I just think this 300 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,280 Speaker 2: game might be a little bit closer that The line 301 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 2: also is a little bit suspect to me. It opened 302 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 2: up at three and a half, it's been bet to 303 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 2: five and a half. I think the t Wolves minus 304 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 2: four probably is a better play on this than winning 305 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 2: by four or five points is probably what ends up 306 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 2: happening here. I'm not sure we get a complete blowout 307 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 2: from Minnesota on the road against Atlanta. But you know, 308 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 2: t Wolves are nine and six on the road and 309 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 2: they are coming off of a really impressive one thirty 310 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 2: six to one oh one win over the Bulls. So 311 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 2: I don't mind that if you want to jump in 312 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 2: on that. But for me, I think we take the 313 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 2: team total for the Timberwolves over one twenty three and 314 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 2: a half at minus one fifteen. Hard rock bets got 315 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 2: that number as well as others here for the t 316 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 2: Wolves at minus at over one twenty three and a 317 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 2: half for their team total against the Hawks on the road, 318 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 2: So three plays for us today. We're going Miami, Ohio 319 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 2: State over forty and a half going against the world. 320 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 2: There are hard rock bet of the day with our 321 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 2: nine and five record so far. With our hard rock 322 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 2: bet of the day, we're going to Ohio State laying 323 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 2: five and a half in the first half up against 324 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 2: Miami and Minnesota team total over one twenty three and 325 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 2: a half up against Atlanta on the road today. 326 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: My name is Matt Parolt. 327 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 2: You guys can follow me across all my socials at 328 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 2: Sports Talk Matt.
