All right, let's get 38 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 4: into it. We disagreed on everything in part one, literally 39 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 4: every team. Let's see if we agree or disagree on 40 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 4: part two. Let's start with notre Dame. Oh doniboy the 41 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 4: pipes pipe so from Landwood, the fighting Irish, who had 42 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 4: a hell of a year under Marcus Freeman, is doing 43 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 4: a really good job building this team, depth recruiting, This 44 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 4: isn't This program is in as good as shape as 45 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 4: it's been in maybe over thirty years. I kind of 46 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 4: remember for you painting on Freeman a little bit. I've 47 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 4: always loved Freeman. I know you've come around on him. 48 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 4: He's done a tremendous job, made it to the National 49 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 4: Championship Game last year. There are some questions with this 50 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 4: year's team. The secondary. You know, obviously you lose Watson 51 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 4: Morrison of the second should still be very very good. Linebacker, 52 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 4: you lose Kaiser, but the linebackers still should be very 53 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 4: very good. You also had DeVante Smith from Alabama to 54 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 4: play the nickel spot. The defensive line, you got some 55 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 4: a lot of talent at the defensive end position. You 56 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 4: do lose Cross and Mills, so I'm a little bit 57 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 4: worried about the defensive tackle. They're still gonna be good, 58 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 4: but could see a drop off there. Offensively is where 59 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 4: I'm worried the most about Notre Dame. Now, I think 60 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 4: they upgraded their weapons, right, like you bring in fields 61 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 4: and paulling for Collins and Mitchell, So I think they're 62 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 4: better at wide receiver, but tight end position worried about 63 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 4: they just had another injury as well, Like I'm not 64 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 4: sure Eli Raridan is the guy. Evans has gone off 65 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 4: to the NFL. Offensive line bring a lot back, but 66 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 4: jackasall got hurt, so that's worth noting. 67 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 2: I mean that it's just another day at the land 68 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 2: of Notre Dame and offensive lineman. 69 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, they were able to overcome that last year, so 70 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 4: I feel like even want to talk about that much 71 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 4: because they were going to Texa and m But similar 72 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 4: to last year, there's season's gonna come down to the 73 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 4: beginning of the year. The running backs are loaded, led 74 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 4: by Love who might be the best in the country, 75 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 4: but you also have Price and Williams. They are elite, elite. 76 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 4: The question that I have is that quarterback because I'm 77 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 4: not hearing good things about CJ. Carr right now, Like 78 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 4: Kenny Minche is like neck and neck. According to some 79 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 4: Minche was like he's supposed to go to pitt and 80 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 4: then Notre Dame was just like, oh, we'll get you. 81 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 4: Because they didn't get more and now he might start 82 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 4: So like is Lloyd Carr. I lost a lot a 83 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 4: lot of money bet and Lloyd Carr now it's his grandson. 84 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 4: So I'm not hearing great things about CJ. Carr. Say 85 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 4: what you want about Leonard. He led them the national championship. 86 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 4: There could be a big drop off at quarterback. We'll see, 87 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 4: and you've got to be good right away, especially for 88 00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 4: this wind total win total sitting at ten and a 89 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 4: half to the under minus one fifty ish, because your 90 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 4: schedule gets very easy late. It's at Miami and Texas 91 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 4: A and m Are your first two games. That's gonna 92 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,719 Speaker 4: make or break your win total. Because then after that 93 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,600 Speaker 4: it's Purdue at Arkansas, which maybe is tricky being at 94 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 4: Boys at home, NC State home USC won't be easy 95 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 4: at home, and then you get to buy. Then it's 96 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 4: at BC Navy at home, at pitt Syracuse at Stanford, 97 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 4: like you should take care of business. So very high 98 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 4: floor for this Notre Dame team, obviously one of the 99 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 4: best teams in the country, but there's questions, just like 100 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 4: a lot of the top teams with their quarterback. I 101 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 4: mean I have them powered at six going into the 102 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 4: year and I'm concerned about quarterback. Defense should be excellent. 103 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 4: Although Al Golden's gone, so new defensive coordinator Chris ash 104 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 4: spent the last four in the NFL. 105 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're going a lot more coverage looks than what 106 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:51,679 Speaker 2: you had before with with Al Golden. 107 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 4: But we'll see. It's all about TJ. 108 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 2: Carr. 109 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 4: That's they're gonna reach. I'm talking like to reach their potential. Yeah, 110 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 4: maybe it's bitchy like in order to win a national championship, 111 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 4: that's a Notre Dame standard right now where this program 112 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 4: is can carby that guy right away. Maybe it's next year, 113 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 4: but a lot of the pieces are in place. If 114 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 4: the quarterbacks there, your two hardest games are your first 115 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 4: two games. So what are you seeing with the fighting irish? 116 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I would think that the is the line 117 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 2: being hit for Miami because CJ. Carr came out, had 118 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: three interceptions in his first practice and he hasn't really 119 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 2: followed that up really well either. But Kenny Minschhee, what's 120 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,599 Speaker 2: the knock on this kid? He's just as highly touted. 121 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 2: I mean, he can play quarterback, you know, Jamiah Love. 122 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 2: The offensive line brings more experience of what they had 123 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: a year ago. At this time, so I'm really not 124 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 2: worried about that. But they're dominating the line of scrimmage 125 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 2: everybody they play slot Jaden Greathhouse. He has developed over 126 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 2: the last two years into an extremely explosive wide receiver 127 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,359 Speaker 2: two point one yards per route run. That is a 128 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 2: major weapon for whoever does get to play quarterback out 129 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 2: of the slot. Best team nationally in defending the explosive pass. 130 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: I love notre Dame. I make them ten point five 131 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 2: to five. I would go over ten and a half 132 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 2: at plus money and look for maybe a potentially down 133 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 2: spot to get them out of. But I don't think 134 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 2: it's Texas A and M off of a bye. You know, 135 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 2: where's the gotcha game after that? On the rest of 136 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 2: the schedule. 137 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 4: Pitt even always loses one. That's the one he always 138 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 4: this is one he's not supposed to Marshall Northern Illinois. 139 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 4: You know, maybe it's a pit, maybe it's at BC, 140 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 4: maybe it's USC at home like USC. 141 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, that's true. 142 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 4: So they start two and now Miami, Texas A and 143 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 4: M they're going to go over. Yeah, pig up one 144 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 4: and one. It's going to be a close race. 145 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,679 Speaker 2: At ten and two Notre Dame team and every single 146 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 2: season is making the playoff, period. And even if they expanded, 147 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 2: I mean they maybe they could be nine to three, 148 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 2: but because of who they are and because of what 149 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 2: they are, ten and two makes the playoffs. So I 150 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,239 Speaker 2: don't see them finishing with nine wins. On the schedule, 151 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 2: it's minus one sixty to make the playoff. That's essentially 152 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 2: over nine and a half minus one sixty. That's a 153 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 2: good bet. So I don't know where's your cutoff point 154 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:00,679 Speaker 2: on them in the playoff? 155 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I theyk go ten to two. They're probably making it. 156 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 2: There's where they're not. 157 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 4: But it is Notre Dame. It's a TV show. Say 158 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 4: they would probably make it. I protect them ten point two, 159 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 4: but I am very worried about the quarterback. But definitely 160 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 4: an interesting case that Notre Dame will be in the 161 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 4: mix all the way until the end. 162 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:18,480 Speaker 2: You want to take Miami week one, we'll see. 163 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 4: I still want to get more intel on Miami as well. 164 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 4: By the way, if you do see me play Miami, 165 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 4: it will come through on the award winning Action Network app. 166 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 4: And if you want to see every college wall pick 167 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 4: track for me, Colin and Duck this season you need 168 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 4: the Action Network AAP.

Let's start with NC State. 182 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 3: The NC State will pack. 183 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 4: Oh, this is the program I think is falling behind 184 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 4: in the new world, just from ANIL perspective and the 185 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 4: way that they wanted to develop teams in the past. 186 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 4: They're gonna look a lot different. There's a new offensive coordinator, 187 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 4: Kurt Roper. I think they're probably gonna go more, more tempo. 188 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 4: He hasn't called on offense in eight years. The defense, 189 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 4: who was a really good defensive coordinator took the Marshall job. 190 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 4: Their defense also got gutted. Their defensive backs could be 191 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 4: really bad. I'm really concerned there defensive line. You lose 192 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 4: Van who did a lot for them, So there's a 193 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 4: lot of questions on this defense. Offensively, CJ. Bailey does 194 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 4: come back at quarterback. I like some of their weapons 195 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 4: that they have, you know, Smothers at running back, Rogers. 196 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 4: They need some other freshmen to step up at wide receiver. 197 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:04,599 Speaker 4: But tight end Jolly, he's a stud or Jolie. I 198 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 4: love him. The former U con Tranceferd a huge year 199 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 4: last year. The problem is the offensive line. This is very, 200 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 4: very very shaky. You lose three to the NFL. You 201 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 4: know Ze Correll, your center, all acc your guard McKay 202 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 4: Belton who was drafted in the second round. So your 203 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 4: center might be can you guess where he's from? 204 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 2: Perdue? 205 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 4: Perdue, So it's gonna be a freshman starting on that 206 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 4: offense line. That offensive line really worries me, and it 207 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 4: really could all fall apart. So it might be a 208 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 4: long year for Nazis State. If you want to take 209 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 4: a long shot on the best you'll find out there, 210 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 4: fifty to one win total over six and a half, 211 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 4: best price out there plus one twenty five you want. 212 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: To go over. 213 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 4: They do avoid Clemson, SMU, and Louisville their ACC road games, 214 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 4: Duke Wake Forest, Pitt and Miami, but they only play 215 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 4: one of the projected bottom six in league play. It's 216 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 4: the one thing that I like about the schedule is 217 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 4: I am very, very worried about the secondary because their 218 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 4: whole secondary transferred out or went to the NFL, and 219 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 4: they transfer out the power for if you look at 220 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,679 Speaker 4: their schedule, who really scares you from a passing perspective. 221 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 4: It's not the worst schedule for a potentially bad pass defense. 222 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 4: That's something that positive that I will say. But not 223 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 4: really a fan of this NC State team this year. 224 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 4: They scream it screams like a six and six team. 225 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 4: To me, I do project them like six four ish, 226 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 4: So I'm not going under, but I'm not particularly high 227 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,719 Speaker 4: on this team. I think some overs early might be 228 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 4: valuable that I'm so mad I didn't hit THATCU. I 229 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 4: talked about this like a couple of weeks ago. The 230 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 4: ECUNC stayed over Week one and it's done nothing but 231 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 4: take money. I think it's going to be an absolute 232 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 4: shootout because I think he's to used. Defense takes a 233 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 4: big step back. There's probably be a lot of tempo 234 00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 4: in this game. What are you seeing with the wolf back? 235 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 2: Well, I focus mostly on CJ. Bailey because I love 236 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: him coming down the stretch when he stay was able 237 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 2: to do it. 238 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 4: Remember freshman last year too. 239 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, But then you know, you get into some of 240 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 2: his analytics, like he nearly had twice as many fumbles 241 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 2: as he had rushing tds. And then when you look 242 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 2: at his throwing fourteen big time throws to eighteen turnover 243 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 2: worth he plays now casey CONCEPTSI one is gone, So 244 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 2: your highest targets is just jolly probably the best tight 245 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: end in the ACC. But you know, he's got excellent 246 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 2: numbers and he's got and he's got even better numbers 247 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 2: as a blocker. But at the same time, like I 248 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,199 Speaker 2: don't like his numbers in the passing game. He was 249 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 2: a freshman, so I give him a little bit of 250 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 2: a little bit of a pass there. But the number 251 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 2: of fumbles, like it's the reason why like for years 252 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 2: with Cam Moored, it's like, sure, you're gonna get twenty 253 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 2: rushing tds. You're gonna get twenty fumbles too, so CJ. 254 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: Bailey needs to clean that up. There are over one 255 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 2: hundred career starts on the offensive line, not that they 256 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 2: know each other. I don't think he can get much 257 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,560 Speaker 2: worse than last year one hundred and twenty ninth than 258 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,839 Speaker 2: Havoc allowed. That's just a huge red flag when you 259 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,800 Speaker 2: want to back an offense, especially with a quarterback that 260 00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:03,319 Speaker 2: had more mistakes than big time throws. Defensively, it's interesting 261 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 2: DJ Eliot's going to come in and take over for 262 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 2: Tony Gibson. It looks like we're leaving the three three 263 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 2: five and going to the three four. Havoc is still everything. 264 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 2: Dj Eliot's saying they were seventeenth in Havoc last year, 265 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 2: top thirty and defending the rush. Can they keep up 266 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,760 Speaker 2: with that? I actually make their number at seven, which 267 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 2: means I should be hitting the over. But when I 268 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 2: look at this, like, you know, no team faces inc 269 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 2: State off of a bye or back to back travel. 270 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 2: It's a pretty clean schedule, and then you travel a 271 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 2: Notre Dame and you host three of four in November. 272 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: But it's the toughest part of the slay Georgia Tech, 273 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 2: FSU North Carolina. Like, I can't go over on this team. 274 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 2: I know the mathematics say to do it. I lean 275 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,839 Speaker 2: to the over, but new coordinators, new secondary, bad quarterback analytics. 276 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 2: I'm not going over on NC State because I agree 277 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 2: with your first thing that you very said. I think 278 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 2: NC State's on the down and I'm not going to 279 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 2: get over on that. 280 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 4: All right, let's be going to North Carolina, stay in state. 281 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 3: The UNC tar Heels. 282 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 4: Obviously a team in the news a lot in the 283 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,320 Speaker 4: off season because they brought in none other than Bill 284 00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 4: Belichick hook Fellas. I am sick of this. Okay, I 285 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 4: can't stand much more of this. It's a joke. It's 286 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 4: a joke. They also brought in his son, Steve from Washington, 287 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 4: makes the trip across country to become the defensive coordinator. 288 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 4: Freddy Kitchens stays on staff takes over as offensive coordinator. 289 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 4: As you'd expect, this team lost a ton. Geo Lopez 290 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 4: will take over at quarterback the South Alabama transfer. Can 291 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 4: he make the leap? Can he stay healthy at this level? 292 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 4: They lose seven of their top eight receivers. They lose Hampton, 293 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 4: who was everything to the offense ran for fifteen hundred 294 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 4: plus last year. I mean the offensive line has some 295 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 4: guys back. I like a couple of their ads, So 296 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 4: the offensive line has some potential. Kobe Payser has to 297 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 4: be he has to be at alpha, he has to 298 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 4: be that guy a wide receiver for them. But they 299 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 4: lost a lot defensively. Yeah, I mean, as you'd expect. 300 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 4: Their top eight defensive linemen are gone. Their two stud 301 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,840 Speaker 4: linebackers are gone, one to the NFL, one de Penn State. 302 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 4: And in the defensive backfield, guess what, they lost a 303 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 4: lot as well. But the defense wasn't great last year. 304 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 4: To be fair, they bring in some Washington guys like Dixon, 305 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 4: who I like. Gibson. I also like another ECU transfer. 306 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 4: That ECU defense. I think it's gonna be really bad 307 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 4: by the way House I think, I mean, I like House. 308 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 4: They're they're linebackers. So there's Simpson comes from Boise at linebacker. 309 00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 4: There's some there's some pieces to work with here. Also 310 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 4: along the defensive front. We'll see if what Belichick can do. 311 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 4: Obviously a high variants team like all these new pieces. Belichick, 312 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 4: how is this gonna work? Does he know how to 313 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 4: run a college team. Does he know how to manage 314 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 4: these kids to out the season. So we'll see. We'll 315 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 4: see if they're special teams. Takes a step back. They 316 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 4: were a top twenty unit last year. Here's the kicker. 317 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 4: Do you want to bet on North Carolina? You can 318 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,400 Speaker 4: bet on the greatest NFL coach of all time, which 319 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 4: they I couldn't argue with. They're fifty to one. By 320 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 4: the way, best number you'll find out there. Win total 321 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 4: is like over seven and a half plus one forty 322 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 4: or over seven minus one forty best you'll find out there. 323 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 4: So the wind total is sitting somewhere between seven and 324 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 4: seven and a half. The schedule, they hit the scheduling lottery. 325 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 4: They avoid Miami, SMU, Louisville, Georgia Tech, Florida State Pit 326 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 4: There acc road games are QS, Wake, NC State, and Cal. 327 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 4: They only faced one of the top seven or eight 328 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 4: depending on where you have Duke, and that's Clemson and 329 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 4: they're coming off of a bye. We'll see what Belichick 330 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 4: can do with two weeks to repair for clen like 331 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 4: this schedule, it start off with TCU, won't be easy, 332 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 4: but then you know Charlotte and Richmond UCF on the 333 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 4: road is going to be down. So this schedule just 334 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 4: everything broke right for them from a scheduling perspective, Can 335 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 4: Bill make it work? I project seven and a half, 336 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 4: so I do show a little bit of value in 337 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 4: the error, but I just have no idea what to expect. Like, 338 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 4: I'm not going to sit here and be like this 339 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 4: is how it's going to go. I still want to 340 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 4: see how camp goes. They're one of two teams in 341 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 4: the league in the ACC that have a new quarterback, 342 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 4: head coach, offensive coordinator, and defensive coordinator. The other is 343 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 4: wake Forest. What are you seeing with the Heels just having. 344 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 2: A hard time finding one coach on this schedule that's 345 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,479 Speaker 2: going to be able to outsmart not just Bill but 346 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 2: Steve right. I mean, at least Steve has a year 347 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: of experience as a defensive coordinator and we know, yeah, 348 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 2: well yeah, that's interesting. You know, I think we should 349 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,919 Speaker 2: expect them, no matter what product they put in the 350 00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 2: secondary and the linebacker, to have a good pass defense 351 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 2: because of what Steve Belichick has been able to produce. 352 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,719 Speaker 2: My question more is around Freddy Kitchen's what he's going 353 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 2: to do with Go Lopez, because you know we've kind 354 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 2: of mismeshed a new offensive line together. I think this 355 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 2: offense can make something happen. I just don't know what 356 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 2: Freddy Kitchen is going to call really confused, kind of 357 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 2: a mystery, what this offense is going to be. I 358 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 2: don't have a bet on this. I can't do an 359 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 2: under or and over because there's too much mystery and 360 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 2: you just can't plug NFL guys in. And by the way, 361 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 2: there has been some success of NFL guys moving into 362 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 2: college and putting down pro style schemes, and college teams 363 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:32,959 Speaker 2: don't how to do it because college has been so 364 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 2: flooded with the spread. I would lean to the under, 365 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,479 Speaker 2: but the schedule's too soft. I believe the defense can 366 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,360 Speaker 2: be picked up, and I love Geo Lopez, but I'm 367 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 2: not going to take an over at this number. 368 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, huge range of outcomes from okay, like if you 369 00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 4: wanted to sit there and you mention yourself the bet 370 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 4: at all it under, or you wanted to take a 371 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,400 Speaker 4: flyer in fifty to one for some couch change because 372 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 4: of the schedule in Belichick and all the roster and certainty, 373 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 4: I couldn't argue with you either, but probably staying away 374 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 4: from me, and that's going to. 375 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: Pit the Pittsburgh Panthers. Watch out for Pat and ourgoozy. 376 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 4: Pitt had an up and down season, started seven and 377 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 4: oh finished ZHO to six. 378 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 2: A lot of flukey box scores. Remember when they got 379 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 2: to seven. 380 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,479 Speaker 4: I mean that they should have lost a couple of games. 381 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 4: That Cincinnati game comes to mind. The schedule got tougher 382 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 4: and then to be fair, they do have a lot 383 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 4: of injuries. Yeah, quarterback and the offensive line. The defense 384 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 4: also wasn't as dominant as it has been in certain years. 385 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 4: They do have hosting back at quarterback. I'm not in 386 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 4: love with them. He did have ankle surgery in the offseason. 387 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 4: Desmond Reid. I love it running back. Can he stay 388 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 4: healthy the whole year? Young depth behind him. They do 389 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 4: lose their top receiver to the NFL and a tight 390 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 4: end of the NFL. I don't love their weapons. I 391 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 4: don't love the guys they brought in. I mean they didn't. 392 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 4: This is not a heavy portal team. So another team 393 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:56,919 Speaker 4: that might be just from a program that might be 394 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 4: falling behind in the new college football landscape. Left side 395 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,919 Speaker 4: of the offensive line going transfer heavy. Worry about that 396 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 4: as well, the defense. It's pit, so you can always 397 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 4: expect them to have a pretty good defensive line. They 398 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 4: lost a couple, but they have some guys there that 399 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,200 Speaker 4: they brought in that are decent. The linebacker room is stacked. 400 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 4: The secondary is a bit of a concern for me. 401 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 4: You lose a good cornerback in safety, you have one 402 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 4: good and one coming back, and you lost one good 403 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 4: one another, so you need two guys to step up 404 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 4: in the secondary. And the secondary is so important for 405 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 4: what Pitt wants to do because they leave a lot 406 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 4: of guys on islands, play a lot of quarters as well. 407 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 4: So we'll see if they can figure out the secondary. 408 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 4: But the defense does have potential. Special teams was elite 409 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 4: last year. They do lose their stud kicker, we'll see 410 00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 4: if they can be as good. Explosive passing, it was 411 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 4: an issue on both sides of the ball. They got 412 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 4: to shore that up. They got to get more explosive, 413 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 4: and they got to limit some of the explosives on defense. 414 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 4: That's kind of the nature of the pit defense. If 415 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 4: they're not firing on all cylinders, then their secondary isn't 416 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 4: very strong. They're going to give up explosives just based 417 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 4: on their scheme. From a scheduling perspective, they do avoid Clemson, 418 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 4: they avoid SMU, they get It's a it's an odd 419 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 4: schedule because they get Notre Dame Miami in Louisville, but 420 00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,600 Speaker 4: they're all at home, Florida State and Georgia Tech on 421 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:21,520 Speaker 4: the road. The rest of the schedule is pretty manageable. 422 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,719 Speaker 4: We'll see how good West Virginia is. That's not an 423 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 4: easy game on the road, but a lot of they're 424 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 4: tougher games are at home, and then like you're going 425 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:33,959 Speaker 4: to QS, you're going to Stanford. We'll see if they 426 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 4: can take care of business in those games. Like this 427 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 4: schedule there they could be like last year, they start 428 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 4: off hot, faded. I don't like a lot of their 429 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,920 Speaker 4: depth at certain positions because they're the close is brutal. 430 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 4: Notre Dame at Georgia Tech, Miami at home, but maybe 431 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 4: that Miami with the weather that helps you a bit. 432 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 4: If you're looking to take a long shot on pitt Best, 433 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 4: you'll find out they're forty five to one to win 434 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 4: the ACC over six and a half plus is the 435 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 4: best number you'll find out there. I project six point 436 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 4: twenty five. Don't love this team but it's the acc 437 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 4: there's some wins out there to be had. What are 438 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 4: you seeing with the Panthers? 439 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 2: Disagree? I love him? 440 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 4: Uh wow, Look you're a Holdstein guy. 441 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 2: No, I'm a defensive Nardoozy guy. Also, tons of injuries 442 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 2: after a seven oh start, I understand there was a 443 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 2: lot of fraud box score they covered just one game 444 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:28,879 Speaker 2: after that. I think it caught up with them enough 445 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 2: to where they they burned off that good luck at 446 00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 2: the end of last year. So there's not really a 447 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 2: whole lot from the offense. I do like offensive coordinator 448 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 2: Cae Bell, who came in, you know, from Western Carolina, 449 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,639 Speaker 2: because they finished fifth in tempo, which is what oh 450 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 2: yeah up Temple offen Yah yeah, Temple all the time. 451 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 2: So but really the defense. Nine of the top thirteen 452 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 2: tacklers are back. Edge Jimmy Scott led the team with 453 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,120 Speaker 2: forty pressures. Linebacker Rashie Bios led the team with five 454 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:57,680 Speaker 2: PBUs Insane coverage numbers from a linebacker perspective for Bios 455 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 2: one hundred percent. Expecting Nardoozy defense to replicate the rank 456 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: of fourteenth and havoc. That's just what Nardoozi does. They 457 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 2: were third in line yards I completely expect these numbers 458 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 2: in these analytics, they could be better from a quality 459 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 2: drives and finishing drives perspective. Both around sixtieth about mid 460 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: FBS special teams were in the top twenty. Again, there's 461 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 2: a lot about this team that I like. And then 462 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 2: with the schedule, they're gonna start two to zero and 463 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 2: then they're going to take their defense, their top twenty 464 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 2: run defense, and they're gonna go face West Virginia and 465 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 2: what does rich Rod want to do? I think they 466 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,159 Speaker 2: win the brawl. I think Pitt wins the brawl. A 467 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 2: nice bye week comes in before hosting Louisville as a dog. 468 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 2: I'm not saying they're gonna be Louisville, but it's a 469 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 2: bad spot on back to back travel from Florida State 470 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 2: to Syracuse. Orange are going to be off a bye 471 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 2: week there. But then they get a great scheduling break 472 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 2: when they have a bye week before hosting Notre Dame. 473 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:46,720 Speaker 2: Not that they can win the game, it's just good 474 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 2: that they have the time off. So I think the 475 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 2: AEC scheduling CODs for sending Miami up there is the 476 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 2: last game of the year. That's a gift. I like 477 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 2: the over I make it seven point one. I think 478 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 2: the defense is going to be just as potent. I 479 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 2: think Holstein could get a little bit more protect and 480 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 2: I think those turnover where he plays twenty them is 481 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 2: a lot. There's a lot of mistakes. But if the 482 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 2: offensive line protects him a little bit more, we have 483 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 2: a little bit better luck. From the injury standpoint here, 484 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 2: I think we can get over this number. And again 485 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 2: I've said it before. This schedule it breaks well in 486 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 2: places that they needed it to break. I'm gonna stick 487 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 2: with pit here. I'm gonna go over plus one fifteen 488 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 2: over six and a half. 489 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, again, we disagree. No, thank you on Pitt, but 490 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 4: I was wrong on them last year. 491 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 1: Let's move on to Boston College, the Boston College Eagles. 492 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 4: Do you know how easy this is for me? Do 493 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 4: you have any fucking idea how easy this? This is 494 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 4: a fucking joke. You want to take a shot on 495 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 4: them one hundred and fifty to one, so the best 496 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 4: you'll find out there over five and a half plus 497 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 4: one ten so to get to a bowl plus money, 498 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 4: basically what you're betting on if you want to bet 499 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 4: their win total quarterback battle here, we'll see if it's 500 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,840 Speaker 4: Grayson James, who took over for Costianus last year, or 501 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 4: Dylan Lonergan, the Bama transfer. I think Lonergan gives him 502 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 4: a higher ceiling, so I be curious to see who 503 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 4: wins that job. Both are a better fit for what 504 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:05,080 Speaker 4: O'Brien wants to do running back room. They're fine wide receiver, 505 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 4: got some experience coming back. What I'm worried about is 506 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 4: the offensive line. This is not a heavy portal team. 507 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 4: They only they might only start one one player from 508 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 4: the portal, but this is a transition here for BC. 509 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,199 Speaker 4: In my opinion, it all comes down to BC like 510 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 4: they want to develop. I have respect that Brian as 511 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,879 Speaker 4: a coach, they want to develop in the trenches. They 512 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 4: usually have sent a lot of offensive linemen to the NFL. Well, 513 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 4: they sent three from last year's team, and I'm not 514 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 4: sure that they're going to be anywhere close to the 515 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:35,199 Speaker 4: level they were at last year. It's the team that 516 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 4: wants to run the ball, set a play action, so 517 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 4: the offensive line to take I think takes a big 518 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 4: step back, and the same with the defensive line. You 519 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 4: send two to the NFL, including one of the best 520 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 4: players in the ACC and as a rouquet from their 521 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,479 Speaker 4: defensive end who did so much for them, and Horsely 522 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 4: their nose tackle is also gone. And you're just not 523 00:25:56,400 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 4: replacing NFL caliber lineman with high level guys like it's 524 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 4: it's some depth guys that on the offensive line that 525 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 4: struggled a couple of years ago when they started, or 526 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 4: some lower level guys. So I think I like the secondary. 527 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 4: I like Crouch at linebacker. The secondary, they had a 528 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 4: ton of injuries. I show a ton of guys stepped up. 529 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 4: They have a lot of pieces to work within the secondary. 530 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 4: But I think this story of BC this year big 531 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 4: step back in the trenches, and when that happens, they 532 00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 4: usually finish five and seven. I think that's where they're headed. 533 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 4: There's just you know, it's not a team that's infusing 534 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 4: itself with a ton of talent every offseason, and I 535 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 4: think this is a transition year. We'll see I kind 536 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:36,679 Speaker 4: of like some of the pieces in the back end. 537 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 4: Like I mentioned, they're gonna play Nickel on like ninety 538 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,400 Speaker 4: percent of snaps. From a scheduling perspective, they host Clemson, 539 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 4: notreed Aime in SMU. I think that's bad. Those are 540 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 4: games I think you'd rather have on the road because 541 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 4: you're probably not going to win them anyway. They don't 542 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 4: have a buy for like, I don't know, seven or 543 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 4: eight straight weeks. So they start with Fordham at Michigan State, 544 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,399 Speaker 4: at Stanford, then cal at Home. You got to start 545 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 4: like I think three and one, minimum two and two, 546 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 4: but I think to go to a bowl because their 547 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 4: last eight games are vicious, vicious. 548 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,439 Speaker 2: And a lot of teams off buys, and that they're at. 549 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 4: Pitt then Clemson Yukon, who comes off a bye before 550 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 4: you go to Louisville, Notre Dame, SMU Georgia Tech, and 551 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 4: then finish at Syracuse. That is brutal as brutal as 552 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 4: you can get for a final eight game stretch. So 553 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 4: you got to try to start three in one ear 554 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 4: to give yourself a chance, a good shot at a bowl. 555 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 4: In my opinion, I think this just comes out of 556 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 4: the trenches too much of a step back. I project 557 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 4: a little under five and a half, so I'm not 558 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 4: too far away from market, but it certainly would lean 559 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 4: under what are you seeing with the Eagles. 560 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 2: I'm at five point six, so it's a complete pass. 561 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 2: I think if I could get a game of the 562 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 2: airline on CAL visiting Boston College, I would definitely back 563 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,840 Speaker 2: the Eagles on that one. Will be on back to 564 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 2: back travel, Boston College will be off of a bye 565 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 2: that has some serious miles there, and I wonder what 566 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 2: time they'll schedule that game, So that is definitely a 567 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,480 Speaker 2: place where I would be looking to back Boston College. 568 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 2: But the remainder of the schedule, I mean Yukon's off 569 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 2: of by Notre Dames, off of by Georgia Tech is 570 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 2: off of bye. Does Boston College not have do they 571 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 2: have three or four wins? And do they treat that 572 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 2: Syracuse game as their bowl? I agree with you, it's 573 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 2: a complete transition year. I'm making five point six right 574 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 2: on the number, so I'm going to pass, But look 575 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 2: at that September twenty seventh number. I do want Boston 576 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 2: College against Cal. 577 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,400 Speaker 4: I will be bet at BC against smud Ben Don Again, 578 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 4: quick heads up to anybody playing fantasy football this season, 579 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 4: The ultimate twenty twenty five draft kid is here courtesy 580 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 4: of our Fantasy Labs team.

I 592 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 4: was dead wrong on them last year, but they're probably 593 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 4: gonna take a massive step back. Their win total is 594 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 4: down to you can go under five and half minus 595 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 4: one eighty five or like under five minus one twenty 596 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 4: one hundred to one is the best number you find 597 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 4: out to win the ACC. This team got gludded. They 598 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 4: lost seven of their top ten tackles, but more importantly, 599 00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 4: their offense just was destroyed. I mean, you lose everyone important. McCord, 600 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,959 Speaker 4: your quarterback to the NFL Leaquinn Allen, your running back 601 00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 4: was also so good out of the back of the 602 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 4: catching the ball, your top three receivers for starting offensive linemen. 603 00:29:57,120 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 4: I don't like a lot of the guys they brought 604 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 4: in along the offensive line. We'll see how the quarterback. 605 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 4: There is a quarterback battle here. Collins kind of the 606 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 4: more talented guy with more upside, but not his experienced 607 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 4: and Jelly's kind of like the veteran. 608 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 3: Peanup peanut butter and cherry. Peanut, peanut butter and cherry. 609 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 4: This offense might take a bigger step back than any 610 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 4: other team in the country. We know they're going to 611 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 4: I mean, they're one of the most past heavy teams 612 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 4: in the country that will at least they were last year, 613 00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:29,719 Speaker 4: so we know they're going to try to throw it. 614 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 4: And they just lost so much from a quarterback, running back, 615 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 4: wide receiver, offensive line perspective. This offense major step back defensively. 616 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 4: There's questions as well. I am super low on this 617 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 4: Syracuse team. Cherry on top is this schedule is brutal. 618 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,479 Speaker 4: It is an impossible road schedule, the hardest away from 619 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 4: home schedule in the country. You start with Tennessee and 620 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 4: Atlanta at Clemson, at SMU, at Georgia Tech, at Miami 621 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 4: at Notre Dame. Like they're going on six there, so 622 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 4: in order to go over in order to get to six, 623 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 4: can they sweep at home Verus ukon Colgate, Duke, UNC, 624 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 4: Pitt BC. I say no, and I think that there's 625 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 4: a better chance than having three or four wins and 626 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 4: six or seven. I will be on the under. I 627 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 4: project them at four. 628 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's exactly where I got them. 629 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 4: Uh so I will be going under. Even though this 630 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 4: is moved. There's look out for the demetri sample Samuel, 631 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 4: there's stud true Frost. He's like their version of Travis Hunter. 632 00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 4: He's probably gonna start at corner and he's probably gonna 633 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 4: play some receiver, really exciting player. We'll see what he 634 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 4: can do. But this schedule is it's just absolutely brutal. 635 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 4: And they lost so much. I mean on the defensive 636 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 4: side too. You lose all four all ac AC guys, 637 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 4: all four all a CC guys. You lost Diggs, your 638 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 4: best pass rusher, to the NFL. You lost both of 639 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 4: your linebackers Wax under the NFL. You lost Clark and Lewis, 640 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 4: your defensive backs to the NFL. And then in the 641 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 4: spring you lose Watson and Edwards who were probably we're 642 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 4: going to start, and then you lost Bellamy and Gold 643 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 4: to UCF. They were probably going to start. So I mean, 644 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 4: this schedule is just brutal. They faced seven of the 645 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 4: top nine away from home schedule is the leak to 646 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 4: illustrate how tough it is. If you look, if you 647 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 4: take the seeds, so the projected seeds, so I got 648 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 4: I might projected one through seventeen. If you take all 649 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 4: the road games in the ACC. So say you faced 650 00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 4: the number one projected at number ten, that would be eleven. 651 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 4: If you add up all the road games of the Seeds, 652 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 4: Syracuse is at ten. The next lowest is twenty four. Like, 653 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 4: it is absolutely brutal. They lost the scheduled lottery. If 654 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,239 Speaker 4: I'm a fan, I'm happy with that though. Yeah, but 655 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 4: you went fran Brown the Keith momentum. You probably want 656 00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 4: to try to get to a bowl. But this is 657 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 4: going to be a rebuilding year. It's gonna be a 658 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 4: long season for Quse. What say you? 659 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 2: Uh? I agree with everything you said, and I'm on 660 00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 2: the under two. Yeah, yeah, I agree. I make the 661 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 2: win total at four. Let me tell you what bothers me, 662 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 2: Because you did a pretty good job covering everything else, 663 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 2: So let me tell you what bothers me. Fran Brown 664 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 2: comes in from Georgia, is a defensive he was a 665 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 2: defensive back coach at Georgia UH and that was a 666 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 2: very highly respected hire. Turkeys finished one hundred and thirtyth 667 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 2: and creating a contested catch. Last year they finished one 668 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 2: hundred and eleven the PFF coverage grading. They finished one 669 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 2: hundred and twelfth in defensive passing success rate and one 670 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: hundred and twentyeth and giving up pass explosives. I'm not 671 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 2: impressed with. Like, the job that fran Brown was supposed 672 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 2: to do was clean up this defense. So I'm going 673 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 2: under I don't believe in this coaching staff whatsoever. 674 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 4: They just want to limit explosives is really what they're 675 00:33:58,160 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 4: trying to do. And then they want to just try 676 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 4: to create a negative play. But you lose digs, you 677 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:05,120 Speaker 4: lose your linebackers. It was two cool it was two 678 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 4: defensive backs of the NFL, and you lose a bunch 679 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 4: of the spring Lake. 680 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't believe in this coaching staff. 681 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,640 Speaker 4: Under all right, let's move on to Virginia. 682 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 3: The Virginia Cavaliers. 683 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 4: I want to take a shot and get one hundred 684 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 4: to one to win the ACC over six and a 685 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:24,240 Speaker 4: half plus one thirty. This is Tony Elliott desperation mode. 686 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 4: He's eleven and twenty five. They brought in a ton 687 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 4: of guys in the portal. They lost one at their 688 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 4: projected tackle in the spring who got hurt. But they 689 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 4: got to fix their offense on. They did have a 690 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 4: ton of injuries last year. They allowed nine plus sacks 691 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 4: twice in acc play last year. It was a disaster, 692 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 4: but they had a top twenty five portal class. Why 693 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:50,359 Speaker 4: they found they had money. They got the largest one 694 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 4: time cash donation in program history. I don't know who 695 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 4: was it, Ohannia whoever, the guy who started redd at 696 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,560 Speaker 4: Serena's husband, he gave them a big donation recently. I 697 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,600 Speaker 4: think a lot of I went to women's programs. But 698 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 4: they got a big cash infusion and so they have 699 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 4: money now. They went and spent. They brought in a 700 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 4: ton of guys in the portal. That includes a new 701 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 4: quarterback and Chandler Morris. But this isn't his usual air 702 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,799 Speaker 4: raid offenses. He really fit this. I don't know. I 703 00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 4: don't love a lot of the guys they brought in, 704 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 4: and it's that they have. They have a lot of 705 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 4: the experience. Good portal class. Think there's some variants here. 706 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,839 Speaker 4: The schedule also gets much easier than last year. They 707 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 4: avoid Clemson, Miami, SMU, they get to face Wake, Stanford, 708 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 4: and Cal. So there's some things to like about Virginia. 709 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 4: I project them at six point two, which is pretty 710 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 4: much where the market is when you account for juice. 711 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 4: I think the swing game for their win total. They 712 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 4: game at Cal. And then also like late in the year, 713 00:35:55,600 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 4: where is VATEC? What is Wake like? What is Cal? 714 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 4: What is UNC doing like? These are teams that could 715 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 4: be really good or they could quit. So there's a 716 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 4: lot of variants with this team from a roster perspective, 717 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,759 Speaker 4: a scheduling perspective. Does the coach even make it through 718 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 4: the year. There's just a lot of moving pieces. What 719 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,280 Speaker 4: are you seeing with the Cavaliers. 720 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 2: I want to like them. They had one of the 721 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 2: highest numbers and transfer activity and returning production are tarp 722 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 2: ratings that we had, so it gave him a pr bump. 723 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 2: I want to like it. 724 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:29,720 Speaker 4: The easiest acc schedule. 725 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Chandler Morris five year career, forty big time throws, 726 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,359 Speaker 2: thirty nine turnover worthy plays. It's not the worst, it's 727 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 2: not the best, but it's an upgrade at Virginia the 728 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 2: receivers are coming in from the portal. I mean none 729 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,720 Speaker 2: of them have flashy numbers. And running back is Xavier 730 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:45,440 Speaker 2: Brown four point three yards after first contact, so he 731 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 2: can create some noise on the ground. For the top 732 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:51,320 Speaker 2: five tacklers return the defensive line portal pieces or from Alabama, 733 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 2: Ohio State, you'd expect you to have better than what 734 00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 2: you've had replacement player at Virginia. Virginia continues to finish. 735 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 2: Here's my problem, same problem I have with Tony Ellie, 736 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 2: because literally I want to go over on this win total. 737 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 2: I actually mathematically make them like seven point two, which 738 00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 2: says I should be going over to six and a 739 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,319 Speaker 2: half is a plus money. But here's the problem. Every 740 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,400 Speaker 2: time I get into my account and I decide, I 741 00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,399 Speaker 2: look at my money and I decide that I want 742 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,479 Speaker 2: to bet, I can't do it on Tony Elliott. Because 743 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 2: Virginia continues to finish outside the top one hundred and tackling. 744 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 2: They are outside the top one hundred and middle eight. 745 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 2: They're outside the top one hundred. Offensive momentum killer. If 746 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,240 Speaker 2: you don't know what that is, that means they're constantly 747 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 2: getting pennies, they're penalties, they're constantly missing field goals, they're 748 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,280 Speaker 2: constantly fumbling the poll, they're constantly doing things to shoot 749 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 2: themselves in the foot, which includes what just horrible rankings 750 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 2: year after year and third down conversions one hundred and 751 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 2: seventeenth last year. Like they can't get anything right. And 752 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 2: this was Sie hoping. 753 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 4: That some of these transfers help them get pressure. 754 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 2: But they're sloppy, they are not well coached. They never 755 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 2: tackle inside the top one hundred. They never do anything 756 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,000 Speaker 2: on the offensive side that gives them enough offensive momentum 757 00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 2: to have a quality drive one hundred and twenty first 758 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 2: in quality drives. That's what you were brought in here for. 759 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 2: So I can't part with my money on Virgin, and 760 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 2: I want to. I hate it when the math and 761 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:09,120 Speaker 2: the returning production and all these things go in the 762 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:12,240 Speaker 2: spreadsheet and it shits out this with this projected total. 763 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 2: But I can't do it because this team continues to 764 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 2: underachieve in analytics that are extremely important, like tackling, like penalties, 765 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 2: like quit fucking it up, and they keep doing it. 766 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 2: So I'm I'm completely not paying attention. If you just 767 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 2: want to look at the math, you're supposed to take 768 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 2: the over I can't do it. Not with Virginia. I 769 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 2: can't do it. 770 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 4: Tony Elli, Yeah, Elliott, I'm not a believer. And by 771 00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 4: the way, guess what one of the starting receivers. Guess 772 00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 4: where they're from, Purdue, Purdue. All right, let's move on 773 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 4: to the dregs, cal Wake and Stanford. Let's start with 774 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 4: wake Forest. 775 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 3: The wake Forest Demon Deacons. 776 00:38:57,040 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 4: Jake Dickard comes in. They had a a pretty good 777 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 4: transfer class. It's gonna be it's gonna look different here 778 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 4: because you're used to the slow mesh wake Forest offense. 779 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 4: It's no longer gonna be that. It's gonna be your 780 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,720 Speaker 4: power spread option. I believe it's gonna be Robbie Ashford 781 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 4: that wins the job. But he's in a battle with 782 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 4: the Sean Perty the Charlotte transfer. It's a very transfer 783 00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:24,799 Speaker 4: heavy offense. I you know, I look at the they 784 00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:29,359 Speaker 4: lost their top four wide outs. I'm worried about their 785 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 4: weapons on the outside and also if like Ashford can 786 00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 4: even get them the ball. The good news is the 787 00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 4: star of the show is back in Daman Claiborne. He's 788 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 4: a beast. He's gonna get a ton of touches. The 789 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 4: offensive line loses all five starters four to power four teams. 790 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 4: They bring in a couple of wazoo guys Dicker brings 791 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,960 Speaker 4: with him, like three maybe could start. We'll see how 792 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:54,919 Speaker 4: that works out. Like Ashford is gonna be running a lot. 793 00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 4: This is you're it's gonna be more outside zone. It's 794 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 4: gonna look different. Might see some more twelve personnel based 795 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 4: on who they have defensively, new defensive coordinator as well. 796 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:17,200 Speaker 4: They could be okay at linebacker, worried about corner could 797 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 4: have two FCS starting cornerbacks, which does worry me. But Ashford, 798 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,319 Speaker 4: I guess, is a good fit for Like there, it's 799 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 4: gonna be a lot of RPO quarterback run, outside zone, 800 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 4: zone read and you've got a really good running back. 801 00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 4: But can they does the offensive line come together and 802 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 4: can they throw it all? Is what I'm really concerned with, 803 00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 4: and also cornerback major concern. So we'll see. From a 804 00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:48,439 Speaker 4: scheduling perspective, acc road games Florida State, Duke, Virginia Tech, 805 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 4: Virginia not bad. They avoid Clemson, Miami, and Louisville. So 806 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,480 Speaker 4: it's a manageable schedule and you've got a runway to 807 00:40:56,520 --> 00:41:00,720 Speaker 4: get off to a decent start. Kennessall Western Carolina NC 808 00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 4: stayed at home before by that NC State game is 809 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 4: huge because they can start three and zero, there's a 810 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 4: good chance that they can find themselves going over the 811 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 4: win total of four and a half over four and 812 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:15,399 Speaker 4: a half plus one fourteen, So the best you'll find 813 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 4: out there five hundred to one to win the ACC. 814 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 4: I wanted to go under. I just don't like I 815 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 4: just don't think this is really gonna work. But I 816 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:31,840 Speaker 4: project four and a half, So it's a pass for me. 817 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:34,280 Speaker 4: What's say you on the Demon decks? 818 00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not a big fan of Jake dickerd because 819 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 2: you are supposed to be a defensive minded coach, and 820 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 2: the defensive analytics at Wazoo continued to turn down every 821 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 2: single year. And I can sit here and say, oh, 822 00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 2: we're pulling in a bunch of Washington State players on 823 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 2: the offensive side, but remember that has been our buckles offense. 824 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 2: So we could talk about top twenty five quality drives 825 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 2: and finishing drives that belongs to OU, that's not going 826 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 2: to belong to Wake. What Wazoo produced last year when 827 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,239 Speaker 2: you look at him defensively, Wazoo finished bottom ten and 828 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 2: almost everything including tackling finishing drives. I mean, there are 829 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,880 Speaker 2: things that I don't like about the defense that I 830 00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 2: think are going to be on this wake Forest side 831 00:42:15,600 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 2: of the ball. They have some players here and some experience, 832 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,879 Speaker 2: but again, Jake Dickard has not been able to produce 833 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:23,520 Speaker 2: on the defensive side of the ball. I don't expect 834 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:24,239 Speaker 2: him to do it here. 835 00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 4: And it's a lot of lower level guys like you 836 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 4: look you might start. It's like Colorado State, Idaho, Western Kentucky. 837 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 4: You kon on the defensive line, and then I already 838 00:42:33,560 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 4: mentioned maybe fcs starting corners. 839 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:38,400 Speaker 2: I do like Robzell. He was the O seed at 840 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 2: South Alabama. Yeah, I mean they South Alabama. I know 841 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 2: Fluff and g O and all guys that they had. 842 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: They were fourth in the country and creating explosive sixth 843 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 2: in line yards, eleventh and finishing drives. That that's not 844 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 2: just players, that's coaches. I make it five point one. 845 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 2: I can't go over because I'm not a fan of Dickert. 846 00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,759 Speaker 2: I'm not a fan of the defense. It's a pass 847 00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 2: for me. But I would play the over if I 848 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:03,479 Speaker 2: was in I've been in win Total Snake drafts before. 849 00:43:03,520 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 2: I would definitely draft Wake Force in. 850 00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 4: The over I'm close to market on Wake not a 851 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:11,960 Speaker 4: team that I love. Let's move on to one of 852 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 4: the other dregs in Stanford. 853 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 3: The Stanford Cardinal. 854 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:20,879 Speaker 4: Look, this Stanford team is going to be bad. They're 855 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 4: now dogs at Hawaii, depending on if Saint Kent State 856 00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:29,399 Speaker 4: closes as a favorite at home against Merrimack in Week one, 857 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:33,120 Speaker 4: which isn't a guarantee. I think that the team that 858 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 4: has the best chance of being an underdog in every 859 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:42,399 Speaker 4: game is Stanford. So I have them right now an 860 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 4: underdog in every game. I haven't projected underdog in every game. 861 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,720 Speaker 4: They could be underdogs in every game. Taylor got fired 862 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 4: in March. Frank Wright comes on as the interim. They 863 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 4: lost more key guys in the spring. They've gone three 864 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:04,919 Speaker 4: to nine for what four straight years. It's it's it's bad. 865 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:09,200 Speaker 4: I mean that you're you're likely to have Elijah Brown 866 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 4: starting at quarterback, you're retro freshman. You just lost so 867 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:17,080 Speaker 4: much across the board. There's not much to like about 868 00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:22,280 Speaker 4: this team. They travel like I don't twenty six thousand miles. 869 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 4: So many HEAP contributors lost. Is it's still a brutal schedule. 870 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 4: One of the ten hardest in the country. Road games 871 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 4: Miami UNC SMU in Virginia, it's the second toughest in 872 00:44:36,640 --> 00:44:39,840 Speaker 4: the ACC. There's like three or four winnable game, but 873 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 4: I'm not sure they get many. This looks like another 874 00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:48,640 Speaker 4: three win season for Stafford. Wouldn't be surprised if it's 875 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 4: worse over three and a half plus one forty five, 876 00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 4: we can go over three even money. I project two 877 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 4: point six three. This is you got a new offensive 878 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:02,319 Speaker 4: coordinator coming in. What do you like about this team? 879 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 4: I can't say much. 880 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 2: I have them directly on three with a conference win 881 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 2: total one point seven to seven, So I don't like 882 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 2: the schedule. I mean, Ben Goldbertson, the transfer in from 883 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 2: Oregon State, is the most experienced quarterback on here, and 884 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 2: I don't know where he's going to fall on the 885 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 2: depth chart because there's so much youth. 886 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, they might go just like the more experienced guy too. 887 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,279 Speaker 2: And from what I've been told, Frank Reich is not 888 00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:26,320 Speaker 2: here long term, Like this is yeah, this isn't Andrew, 889 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 2: this isn't. 890 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 4: This is a whole of them search during the season, and. 891 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're going to do their due diligence and just 892 00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:33,200 Speaker 2: kind of Wash the season. I guess focus on recruiting 893 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 2: or whatever, but I would look for an alternate total 894 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:40,280 Speaker 2: of under three because I don't know. You can't. I can't. 895 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,520 Speaker 2: If I can't even name four, I can't even name three. 896 00:45:42,840 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 2: Staring at the schedule, you can't find four games on 897 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 2: this schedule. 898 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 4: Now, it's good, would have to be the result of 899 00:45:48,200 --> 00:45:52,080 Speaker 4: other other I'm not a fan of Hawaii. I think 900 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:54,400 Speaker 4: they're going to lose to Why but I like Hawaii 901 00:45:54,440 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 4: more than you. It's it's bleak that's finish up with Cal. 902 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 3: The golden Bears of cal. 903 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 2: Cal speaking of the week. 904 00:46:05,560 --> 00:46:07,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, under five and a half minus one forty five, 905 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 4: where you can go under five plus one thirty at 906 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 4: circa one hundred and fifty to one to win the conference, 907 00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 4: similar to Stanford, Like, it's just the vibes are bad. 908 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 4: There's like a boycott for the Loosers era running it. 909 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,719 Speaker 4: I don't know much longer Willcox is going to be there. 910 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 4: They lost a ton on their offense in the portal. 911 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 4: You lose Mendoza, you lose your top two running backs, 912 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,520 Speaker 4: all the running backs post spring. Your tight end went 913 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:37,360 Speaker 4: to Texas, who was really good. Your top five receivers 914 00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 4: went in the portal, all of them. Your quarterback, your 915 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 4: top two running backs, your top receivers. You're tight and 916 00:46:43,200 --> 00:46:45,680 Speaker 4: they all went to Power four programs. The d also 917 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 4: was elite last year, Wilcox specialty. The secondary was so good, 918 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,880 Speaker 4: one of the most underrated in the country. Well, you 919 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 4: lose three to the NFL. They had three NFL guys 920 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,839 Speaker 4: in that secondary. You also lose career up front, which 921 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 4: at your rundy, you lose your sack leader and Carlton, 922 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 4: and then you lose Bhu Cannon, your the other linebacker 923 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:10,680 Speaker 4: to the NFL in the spring game. So I don't know. 924 00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:14,000 Speaker 4: It's gonna be Devin Brown at quarterback. There's your true freshman. 925 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,959 Speaker 4: I think is the better option four star, but he's 926 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:21,839 Speaker 4: super raw. In the spring game, the offense scored zero. 927 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 4: The first team offense scored zero points on seven drives. 928 00:47:24,480 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 4: Brown had three picks. But this be was so good 929 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,239 Speaker 4: last year, and with the talent they lost and who 930 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 4: they were replacing them with, I'm not sure we don't 931 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:38,680 Speaker 4: see a big drop off. And then what does this 932 00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:41,959 Speaker 4: offense have, especially after what they got hit with post 933 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 4: spring this I like the linebacker room. Willcox should get 934 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:52,760 Speaker 4: the best out of this tea, but they lost a lot. 935 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,880 Speaker 4: He is one in eighteen versus winning teams, usually covers 936 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 4: against with a big number. He's really good as a 937 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,600 Speaker 4: big underdog. Just pack them as a spread. Doesn't usually 938 00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 4: get the win, but his teams, his defense is usually 939 00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,040 Speaker 4: keep them innute. They do also play five teams off fives. 940 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 4: Their road games in the ACC, BC Vatechville, and Stanford 941 00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:19,720 Speaker 4: not terrible like they have. They have nine winnable games 942 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,719 Speaker 4: on the schedule like hear me out at Oregon State, 943 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 4: winnable Texas Southern at home, Minnesota at San Diego State 944 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:34,319 Speaker 4: at BC Duke, UNC, UVA at Stanford. Now, are they 945 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:38,320 Speaker 4: gonna win them all? No, but the schedule is pretty 946 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 4: favorable if only they have this schedule last year with 947 00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,120 Speaker 4: last year's team. Yep, But I mean you lose your 948 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 4: your stud quarterback, your top ten rushers, eleven of your 949 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 4: top twelve receivers. Then you lose three defensive backs of 950 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 4: the NFL, your top stack guy linebacker of the. 951 00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:56,840 Speaker 2: NFL, six of the top seven tacklers. 952 00:48:57,080 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, your best run defender in the interior. Like I 953 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:02,680 Speaker 4: don't like, I don't like their new oc. 954 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,600 Speaker 2: SO I don't know. 955 00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:09,400 Speaker 4: I mean this has been beat up to the under 956 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 4: I project four point nine. A lot of that's based 957 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 4: on the schedule, but this could all, this could all 958 00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:16,799 Speaker 4: implode too, and some of those wins that you want 959 00:49:16,800 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 4: to get for the win total Virginia at home at 960 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 4: Stanford late and things could go up in flames by then. 961 00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 4: So what do you see. You're in a Grandson cow. 962 00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 4: It's gonna be a long air. 963 00:49:29,600 --> 00:49:32,760 Speaker 2: Interesting Brian Harson taking this job after the off field 964 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,440 Speaker 2: dumpster fire that he went through with the personal stuff 965 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 2: that he had at Auburn to jump into this situation 966 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 2: where you know, basically everybody that has money with cal 967 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 2: wants Ron Rivera to be the head coach here. And 968 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,200 Speaker 2: will Cox Is said, I don't know who will Cox 969 00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:50,120 Speaker 2: agent is, but you should have been on the horn 970 00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:53,440 Speaker 2: this past year, you know, crazy enough I make this 971 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:56,520 Speaker 2: actually five point eight. I can't fight. I think it's schedule. 972 00:49:58,719 --> 00:50:00,239 Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's because of skeed Le 973 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,279 Speaker 2: sixty first strength of schedule here, you know, and some 974 00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:06,240 Speaker 2: of the defensive numbers are there, but they lost everybody, 975 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,640 Speaker 2: and it's hard to put your finger down and say 976 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 2: this is why I'm betting this team. From an offensive 977 00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 2: or defensive perspective, the numbers defensively continue to get worse 978 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 2: for Cal, and will Cox is a defensive coordinator, So 979 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,359 Speaker 2: I you know, I don't know if there's a coach, 980 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,719 Speaker 2: it's more on a hot seat than what's going on here. 981 00:50:24,160 --> 00:50:26,360 Speaker 2: And when you look at their experience on offense, what 982 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,400 Speaker 2: they lost, especially from the receiving perspective, like who's your 983 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:33,959 Speaker 2: biggest like Tron Griselle twenty seven catches four in one yards. 984 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 2: That's it. That's the only thing they brought back from 985 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:40,839 Speaker 2: receiving perspective. Rushing gone everybody one, two, three, four, five, 986 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:44,520 Speaker 2: teams playing off by yeah, I do. I do like 987 00:50:44,520 --> 00:50:46,799 Speaker 2: to pay attention to who comes to Cal on back 988 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:48,960 Speaker 2: to back travel. That is Duke in Virginia. So I 989 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 2: mean those are places where if we can just get 990 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:53,120 Speaker 2: a little schedule to be nine pm on the CW 991 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 2: or something like that, get a little late action and 992 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,799 Speaker 2: berserkly going, you can snag the wins. But yet that 993 00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 2: you can't predict that right now. So for me, if 994 00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,399 Speaker 2: I had to play, I'd play an over because I'm 995 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 2: at five point eight. But I'm not rushing to the 996 00:51:06,560 --> 00:51:08,120 Speaker 2: window for this. 997 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:10,400 Speaker 4: They wouldn't. It wouldn't surprise me. They only ended up 998 00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:12,960 Speaker 4: winning two or three games. But it's very viotal situation 999 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:18,520 Speaker 4: that finishes up the ACC favorite win totals, futures picks 1000 00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:24,040 Speaker 4: to win. I'll start kind of like Clemson under. My 1001 00:51:24,120 --> 00:51:27,480 Speaker 4: biggest edge is VA Tech over. I will be betting 1002 00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:31,000 Speaker 4: Syracuse under Georgia Tech long shot maybe, but Louisville it's 1003 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,839 Speaker 4: gonna be my horse. Louisville is my pick to win. 1004 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 2: The Okay, well, I'm not gonna disagree on the Louisville love. 1005 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 2: I'm over eight and a half minus one thirty. I mean, 1006 00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 2: I'm definitely betting that Clemson plus one oh five to 1007 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:46,520 Speaker 2: win the ACC. They won't be an underdog. 1008 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,320 Speaker 4: Oh and Clemson no win no to win the ACC. 1009 00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:51,279 Speaker 2: All right, we can go. You put it on the board. 1010 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:54,359 Speaker 2: If you want, no Jews, no out there. 1011 00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,879 Speaker 4: It's minus. You can find Clemson minus one ten to win. 1012 00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 2: So okay, okay, we can put it on the board. 1013 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 2: I hate it. I'm gonna end up playing Georgia Tech 1014 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 2: under seven and a half plus one twenty five and 1015 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:06,719 Speaker 2: then with Duke I'm going over six and a half 1016 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:08,400 Speaker 2: minus one sixty. If you can find us seven. I 1017 00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:11,440 Speaker 2: go out there too. I projected seven point seven Miami. 1018 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:13,520 Speaker 2: I'm going under nine and a half minus one forty 1019 00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 2: eight or an alternate line if you can do it. 1020 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,680 Speaker 2: Pitt I love them, stuck hates them over six and 1021 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 2: a half plus one fifteen. And then finally, I'm not 1022 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:25,040 Speaker 2: sure if I'm gonna put it in, but Florida State 1023 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:26,960 Speaker 2: under six and a half plus one twenty five. I 1024 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 2: don't think this Gus Malazon thing is gonna work out 1025 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 2: as well. They're not developing players, they're not retaining players. 1026 00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:34,840 Speaker 2: No one gets any better when they get to Florida State. 1027 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 4: Hues thunder two. That's the only thing we agree on. 1028 00:52:37,120 --> 00:52:39,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, definitely. And then oh, Virginia Tech, I'm gonna 1029 00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:42,720 Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna bypass win totals and just play them. 1030 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:44,440 Speaker 2: I think there's some seven half, so I think there's 1031 00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 2: an eight out there. I'm gonna bet them eight in 1032 00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 2: Week one against South Carolina, and then I'm probably gonna 1033 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,240 Speaker 2: throw a little money line in there. You can definitely 1034 00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:53,440 Speaker 2: count them in the round robin under money Week one 1035 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 2: under money line dogs, and that will kind of serve 1036 00:52:56,200 --> 00:53:00,239 Speaker 2: as my investment on a belief of Virginia Tech is 1037 00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:01,360 Speaker 2: going to make some noises here. 1038 00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 4: Thanks you subscribing subscribe to scrape Tail Friends on me. 1039 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:06,520 Speaker 4: That'll do it for us.
