We got plenty of things to bet on. 34 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I apologize for my voice throughout. Maybe this is 35 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 2: I've bruntkitis. I've been in bed for like two days 36 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 2: capping the card. I'm just looking at my record for 37 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 2: the year. I'm up one and a half units, fifty 38 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 2: one and a half percent. This is usually the time 39 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: where we get hot. I can't promise another twenty four 40 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,959 Speaker 2: and six bowl season, but I'm hoping this is my 41 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 2: Jordan flu game weekend and it kind of propels me, 42 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 2: you us to the end. So yeah, I was under 43 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 2: a heated blanket two days straight. This is the only 44 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 2: time I've gotten up to do this to do a 45 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 2: couple other podcasts, So hopefully I was able to find 46 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 2: some winners, but after this I'm going to sleep for 47 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 2: about fifteen hours. So no, bye week's year. Let's get 48 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 2: into the card. We'll start with where we always start, 49 00:02:52,680 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 2: and that's look ahead or look away, hangovers, sleepers, and 50 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: the dreaded sandwich spot. 51 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 3: Is it time to look ahead or look away? 52 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 2: This is when we look at next week's card, last 53 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 2: week's guard and try to determine if there's any impact 54 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: on this weekend's set of games, either from just an 55 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 2: emotional standpoint, does the team come out flat or you know, 56 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 2: a strategic standpoint, do they pull their start as a 57 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 2: little suit or not so much, et cetera, et cetera. 58 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 2: So let's take a look here first at the biggest 59 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 2: look ahead spots, and that would be a huge game 60 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 2: in the Big Ten next weekend between Ohio State and 61 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 2: pen State. We also have Michigan and Michigan State, which 62 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 2: we'll talk about next week before those teams have those 63 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: meetings that Michigan has to post Northwestern and Ohio State 64 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 2: will go to Indiana, their twenty one point favorites at 65 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: wind Bet. Illinois goes to pen State. Pen State's a 66 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: twenty one point favorite also twenty one point favorite at 67 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 2: win Ben at home. The status of quarterback Bredon Peters 68 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 2: is up in the air. Sear Clifford was practicing. I 69 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 2: doubt will play here. I mean he had a brace 70 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 2: on why play him the week before? Ohio State my 71 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 2: only angle here. I mean, I have nothing for I 72 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 2: think Ohio State's a little rich, but they've really turned 73 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 2: it around as of late. I have nothing in Michigan Northwest, 74 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: and I'm curious to get your thoughts there. My only 75 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: play in any of these three sets of situational Big 76 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 2: Ten games is the under in Penn State Illinois. I 77 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: think that Penn State just wants to get out of 78 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 2: this game healthy. But without Clifford, this offense, we saw 79 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 2: what it did against Iowa. I mean, these quarterbacks, they 80 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 2: can't do it. And Clifford's only one of the team 81 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 2: that could run the ball. They can't run it. Their 82 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 2: offensive line has been bad. Illinois's offense is a mess. 83 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 2: Penn State's defense should show up here. So I think 84 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: this game is kind of ugly, and you know, Penn 85 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 2: State gets out a year with like a twenty seven 86 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 2: to ten kind of win or something. So I played 87 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 2: some under forty six and a half there, assuming that 88 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 2: Clifford doesn't play because we solved that offenses without him 89 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 2: any thought of any of those three games. 90 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll start with that one because I kind of 91 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 3: had the same take. But the problem is that Sean 92 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 3: Clifford was taking reps in practice the last two days. 93 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 3: But it could be like emergency situation, right, we don't 94 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 3: want to lose the big ten against Illinois. And I mean, 95 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 3: I'm a little nervous because I took this game on 96 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 3: open figuring that Sean Clifford might be healthy and that 97 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 3: would catapult it up to my power rank of twenty eight. 98 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 3: So the number definitely is taking into account that Sean 99 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 3: Clifford is not going to play this game. And you 100 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 3: know it just even though Sean Clifford's practicing, the points 101 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 3: bore hasn't moved, so obviously odds makers don't believe that 102 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 3: he's going to play either and laying this many points 103 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 3: with Takwan Roberts Roberson, it just did not have a 104 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 3: good game in relief of Clifford against Iowa seven of 105 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 3: twenty one passing too. 106 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 2: It went from a really good offense to look at 107 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 2: like the worst offense of the country. It was. 108 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 3: It was disgusting. And listen, pen, You're right, Penn State's 109 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 3: rushing attack is progressively getting worse one hundred and fourteenth 110 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,599 Speaker 3: rushing success rate, one hundred and seventeenth in the line years. 111 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 3: There's zero push from this offensive line. And you know 112 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,679 Speaker 3: that might get a pass this week because Illinois defense 113 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 3: is near dead last and almost everything and anyone in 114 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 3: the country can run on Illinois. But what's going on 115 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 3: there with their program? Was Brett Bilima trying to motivate 116 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 3: the guys on his team or is he just does 117 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 3: he just really hate this roster. Bilmen came out this 118 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 3: week and voiced his frustrations about how obviously the team 119 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 3: that he inherited that he didn't recruit, none of these 120 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: players are his, They're not getting the job done in 121 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 3: the two deep, and then he specifically called out the 122 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 3: offensive line that I'm getting nothing out of the players 123 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 3: that are on the offensive line. I don't think I've 124 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 3: ever seen a head coach specifically like not just bag 125 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: on his team, but call out a unit for being horrible. 126 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 3: So I don't know where Illinois's heads are at. If 127 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 3: they come out a little fired up, a little pissed 128 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 3: off because their coach said that they suck or you know, 129 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 3: maybe they you know, quit on them. I don't know, 130 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 3: but the number is interesting. I make it twenty eight. 131 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 3: The Clifford makes it twenty three, twenty four and a half. 132 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 3: But first half under for me is the way I 133 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 3: would look. And the reason I say that is is 134 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 3: because if Penn State gets into trouble, I think you 135 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 3: see Clifford in an emergency situation, maybe third and fourth quarter, 136 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 3: to save their Big Ten hopes because they can't lose 137 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 3: this game. So I agree with you under all the way. 138 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 3: I don't know what the Beaelman angle is at all, 139 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 3: but I guess we'll find out. 140 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 2: That's fair anything. The other two Big Ten games. 141 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 3: Well, the Ohio State teams, like I did a deep 142 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 3: dive on it, and you know, listen, Indiana's offense is 143 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 3: something you just can't bet on. It's inflated spread. I 144 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 3: make it sixteen. I think SPPLUS makes it nineteen. I mean, 145 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 3: this number is huge. And then what you have to 146 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 3: do with Ohio State right now is you have to 147 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 3: accurately assess what the Buckeyes' defense has been since the 148 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: loss to Oregon. So let's do that. Tulsa beat the 149 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 3: national average and success rate in standard downs and passing downs, 150 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 3: but they failed in scoring opportunities. Akron was stuffed in 151 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 3: sixty five percent of the runs, but they met the 152 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 3: national average in passing down, had a drive go over 153 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 3: ten plays. It's accron against Ohio's these defense. And then 154 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 3: Rutgers exceeded national average and all success rates splits. They 155 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,440 Speaker 3: even produced two explosive drives on offense, but again once 156 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 3: they got to the forty yard line, they averaged one 157 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 3: point five points per attempt in finishing drives. And then 158 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 3: Maryland exact same story at national average, killed it in 159 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:26,119 Speaker 3: success rate, two drives with ten plus plays, terrible showing 160 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 3: and scoring opportunities, and two turnovers of course from Maryland. 161 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 3: So I don't trust the Ohio State defense. I know 162 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 3: everybody thinks that they're getting hot and lit up, and yes, 163 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 3: their offense is college football playoff ready. C J. Stroud 164 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 3: is the fourth highest graded quarterback behind Bryce Young, can 165 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 3: He Pickett, and Grayson McCall per PFF. Now, Stroud is 166 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 3: fantastic in pressure pockets, but Indiana is not pressuring anybody. 167 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 3: So the handicap is Ohio State can absolutely get all 168 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 3: their yards here, they can get all their points all day. 169 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 3: But I don't trust the defense. So I'm not sure 170 00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 3: if I'm taking Ohio State in an inflated spread. No 171 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 3: thing Ohio State team total over that I can do well. 172 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 2: The thing with the Ohio State defense is, and that's 173 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 2: going to be the key whether or not they can 174 00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 2: win a national title is their defense comes along is 175 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: in the first three weeks. And this is a guy 176 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 2: I was screaming about for you know, for the past years, 177 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 2: Kerry Coombs cannot call the defense at this level if 178 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 2: you want to win a national championship. So he he 179 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,559 Speaker 2: lost his play calling duty and they were given to 180 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 2: Matt Barnes, who has taken over the past three games. 181 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 2: But like you know, they played Akron, Rutgers and then 182 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 2: Maryland without you know, all of their receivers. So I 183 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 2: still don't have a good rad on. You know, Ohio 184 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 2: State fans will tell you, Okay, now, our defense is 185 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: different because of the play calling duty shift, which you 186 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 2: can't get any worse than Coobs is done. But I 187 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: need to see it, you know, at home against Penn 188 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 2: State next week at Nebraska. You know, the Michigan State, 189 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 2: Michigan the end of the year. Anything in Michigan Northwestern 190 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:55,959 Speaker 2: with our friend Boatog. 191 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 3: Jim, don't gamble, don't associate with gam avoid it like 192 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 3: the plague. Let's check in with bow Dodd Jim. Yeah, 193 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 3: boat dog Jim. I think you got to look at 194 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 3: you know, it's a Michigan or nothing here. I mean 195 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 3: the same as Penn State. Michigan gets the twenty four 196 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 3: and there's just mass resistance in the market coming in 197 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 3: on Northwestern. There's some questionable injury statuses for a few 198 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 3: players on the Northwestern offerense, but this is an offense 199 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 3: that has had an explosive touchdown and sustained some drives 200 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 3: on Rutgers. Ryan Helenski is going to be under extreme pressure. 201 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 3: And you know the offensive line that kind of skated 202 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 3: against Ohio Duke Indiana State, they're eighty eighth and pass 203 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 3: blocking and their top ten pass rush defense of Michigan 204 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 3: is just going to be all over Ryan Helenski. So 205 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 3: I think it's kind of it's tough to take a 206 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 3: spread that large with a Michigan team that is so 207 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 3: focused on running the ball, and they should have a 208 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 3: ton of success running the ball. I mean, you know, 209 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 3: sixty seven percent rush, right, but their tempo is one 210 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 3: hundred and first. Blake Korum may have a huge day. 211 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 3: He averages three point eight yards after contact, and the 212 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 3: Northwestern defense is near dead last in defensive rush EPA. 213 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 3: So if you believe Michigan can bust explosive plays all 214 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 3: day on the ground against Northwestern, which the stats say 215 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 3: that they should, then this should be a cover. But 216 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 3: again this is a very much inflated spread. Again, so 217 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 3: it's Michigan or nothing. 218 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 2: All right. Before we move on to some of the 219 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 2: marque games of the weekend, say you're looking at a 220 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 2: couple of potential hangover spots after some big wins last 221 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 2: week LSU, everyone wrote them off for Dad, everyone said 222 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 2: ad ohs lost the team. Then they win. They beat Florida. 223 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 2: By the way, deb Allwood, why are you not playing? 224 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 2: Get to do interest of the whole time was led 225 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 2: them back to victory. But LSU wins, and ironically enough, 226 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,239 Speaker 2: Dah gets fired. Well while we were doing the podcast, 227 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,640 Speaker 2: on the recap episode, we found out that Braef you los, 228 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 2: but LSU just you know, losing so many key players. 229 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 2: But they put it all together. They did not quit 230 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 2: On ed out they now will travel too old bess 231 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 2: old bess off that w again at Tennessee where I 232 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 2: mean big golf balls and gatorade bottles. So interesting matchup here. 233 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 2: There's a lot of questions about the quarterback situation with Obts. 234 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 2: Earlier the week, Laane hinted back Corral said it didn't 235 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 2: look good. I was thinking that was gamesmanship potentially. You 236 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 2: never know with Lade. Where do we stand there? What 237 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: do you see here? 238 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 3: Well, it's interesting as you and I were podcasting on Sunday, 239 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 3: Coach O got fired, and then Brett and I podcast 240 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 3: sed on Monday and Nick Rolovich got fired in the 241 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 3: middle of the podcast. So somebody's probably getting fired right now. 242 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 3: I'm not exactly sure. Listen, there's two big handicaps, and 243 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 3: you already mentioned it. Do the players respond to Coach O? 244 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,520 Speaker 3: And does Matt Corrall play? Now? Addressing the first one, 245 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 3: you know these players were they came to LSU for 246 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 3: Coach O. They came to play for him. He has 247 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 3: a very close personal relationship with a lot of these guys. 248 00:12:56,480 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 3: And when you listen to guys like TJ. Finley leave 249 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,559 Speaker 3: for all like he was emotionally upset about leaving coach O. 250 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,199 Speaker 3: These players love him to death, so I think that 251 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 3: they're going to respond. They did against Florida, and I 252 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 3: can I expect them to keep doing that now. On 253 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 3: Coacho's personal relationship with Lane Kiffen, you know, Kevin said 254 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 3: he's an awesome guy and he's a phenomenal coach. Listen, 255 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 3: they have a very long history with each other. I 256 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 3: mean they're they you know, the USC Ties, everything else. 257 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 3: And it just doesn't sound like, you know a coach 258 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 3: that's going to try to run his opponent out of 259 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,959 Speaker 3: the building if he can. That depends on you know what, 260 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 3: Matt Corral, if he's going to play. I heard the 261 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 3: same thing from LSU. They don't believe it all that 262 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 3: Matt Corral is going to be sitting on the bench. 263 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 3: But if Kral is out Kinkaid Dent, John Reese, Plumbley, 264 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:41,079 Speaker 3: the playbook isn't going to change. It's going to be 265 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 3: zone read, handoff hitting a vertical route. And we know 266 00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 3: ole Miss is the fastest offense by tempo metrics, but 267 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 3: does the sixty percent rush rate increase without kraw or 268 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,319 Speaker 3: to keep you know, Dent or Plumbly from throwing you 269 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,719 Speaker 3: don't want Denton plumbly throwing the ball the way craw does. 270 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 3: So you know, Florida was stuffed on ten of thirty 271 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 3: three rushing tempts by the LSU defensive front. And for 272 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 3: the season they're above the national average and stuff for it. 273 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 3: But the issue is the explosive play. Florida doubled the 274 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,679 Speaker 3: national average and explosive drives on this LSU defense. This 275 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,319 Speaker 3: is defense is missing a ton of pieces out of 276 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 3: the back seven. So while it's great that LSU did beat, you're. 277 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 2: Missing both both your corners now of like the potential 278 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 2: of the best quarter doing the country. 279 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the big news this week is that, hey, 280 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 3: LSU beat Florida. But yeah, but if you look at 281 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 3: the numbers, like Florida had a field day on offense. 282 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 3: But the case for LSU to win, you know, is 283 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 3: to keep the old miss offense off the field. What 284 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 3: Nick Saban did with Brian Robinson. Why did you push 285 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 3: yourself grinding them to a halt and not letting Kraal 286 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 3: and the offense come out there? And ty Davis Price 287 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 3: goes for one forty seven on Kentucky. He gets new 288 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 3: run schemes and sets to eighty seven on Florida now 289 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 3: gets an old Miss defense. It's one hundred and twentieth 290 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 3: and rushing success rate and they're ninety sixth and tackling. 291 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 3: Are they going to be able to get Ty Davis Price? 292 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 3: So it turns out like the director of Performance and Innovation, 293 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 3: Jack Marucci, came up with these schemes and now that's 294 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:02,240 Speaker 3: what the offensive line is running and ty Davis Price 295 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 3: is just going crazy. So you know, I mean he 296 00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 3: had eleven Miss tackles, he averaged four yards after contact. 297 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 3: Old Miss can't do anything with that. So you know, 298 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 3: I project Ole Miss minus seven and a half with 299 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 3: corral and a total of seventy one. But obviously there's 300 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 3: gonna be plenty of explosive plays on both sides of 301 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 3: the ball. The LSU defense is twentieth in rush EPA, 302 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 3: and you know they have a top forty defense against 303 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 3: standard downs explosiveness, and that's where Ole Miss lives. They 304 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 3: just eat at explosiveness and standard downs. They rank first 305 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 3: in FBS. So you know, the biggest key numbers in 306 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 3: the seventies are seventy three and seventy six. So the 307 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 3: under is certainly what I'm looking at. With under seventy six, 308 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 3: not seventy five and a half. That's where I would 309 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 3: cut it off. I think ty Davis Price is really 310 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 3: the player that can keep the Old Miss offense off 311 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 3: the field. Trying to be like Alabama and Brian Robinson. 312 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 3: You know you called it last week easy, you call 313 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 3: it under in that Tennessee Old Miss game. I think 314 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:50,760 Speaker 3: we have an under here too. 315 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 2: Ole Miss has some wide receiver injuries worth keep an 316 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 2: eye on to at winbat Right now, the official odds 317 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 2: provider of the Big Bets of Campus Podcast, Oh misses a. 318 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 2: They're sitting at minus ten plus one hundred over under 319 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 2: seventy five and a half. Another potential hagover spots perdue. 320 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 2: They pick up that big win over Iowa in pretty 321 00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 2: dominant fashion, and now they will get a host of 322 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 2: Wisconsin team that is fresh off of another grinder against Army. 323 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 2: At win Bet Purdue is a three point home underdog 324 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 2: over under is forty. Now what we know about Wisconsin 325 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 2: is they can't really throw the ball with Graham Berts, 326 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 2: but you cannot run on them. Their defense is elite. 327 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 2: Purdue can't run the ball at all, so they're not 328 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 2: gonna They might not get a yard here running the ball. 329 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: And we know Purdue's defense is played at a top 330 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 2: fifteen level just this year. If you were priored to 331 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 2: in a top fifteen defense, you know that carlaftis he 332 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 2: could be a top five pick that gets double and 333 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 2: triple team new coordinators done wonders for that defense. I'm 334 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 2: leading under here again. I think that what will make 335 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 2: or break Gave is how much davage could David Bell 336 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 2: do crossed Iowa. But that's that's how Purdue's going to 337 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 2: have to make their living. Gears feeding David Bell and 338 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 2: kid Wisconsin slow him down because they're going to slow 339 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 2: down the run is probably not even going to try 340 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: to run here. What do you think here? 341 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,960 Speaker 3: Very good handicap because that's exactly the handicap where I 342 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,920 Speaker 3: was at. So I wanted to take Wisconsin minus three earlier. 343 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 3: Today the number moved across the board when bet minus 344 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 3: three and a half. We have some history here. In 345 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 3: twenty eighteen, Jeff Brown beat number two Ohio State. We 346 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 3: can thank Rondell More for that. Now, David Bell is 347 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 3: the guy. And if you go back to twenty eighteen, 348 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 3: Perdue lost the next game to unranked Michigan state and 349 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 3: they had three turnovers, so you know a win is 350 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 3: a big game for them if they're feeling pressure. A 351 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 3: winear puts Purdue one step closer to winning the Big 352 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 3: Ten West. If Minnesota can take a loss, probably shouldn't 353 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 3: be too hard with that. But you know this number 354 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 3: is a bye at three. At three and a half, 355 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 3: I've really got a reassess, especially when you're looking at 356 00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: a Wisconsin team that has some issues scoring. The hook. 357 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 2: That hook is even is the most important thing of 358 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 2: the road with you're trying to back grab Mertz. 359 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,400 Speaker 3: Absolutely absolutely, So you know both defenses have a strong 360 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 3: advantage here. You know George carl Aftis he ranks eighth 361 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 3: individually in the nation and pass rush productivity per PFF 362 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 3: and Graham Mertz adjust, a completion percentage drops twenty five percent, 363 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 3: and a pressured pocket. So that half point, like Stuck said, 364 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,840 Speaker 3: is extremely important. It's going to be a very slow 365 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 3: drip of a faucet. Wisconsin running game produced defenses seventy 366 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 3: eighth and stuff rate, so even the you know, the 367 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:36,199 Speaker 3: running backs are going to be able to get their 368 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 3: two and three yards and a cloud of dust. And 369 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 3: that's exactly how the offense is going to move. Now 370 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 3: on the other side, you hit it. What's going to 371 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 3: happen to David Bell? Is he going to run wild 372 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 3: like he did last week? And the boiler Makers they 373 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 3: have it in the advanced stats. They throw sixty percent 374 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 3: of the time. They're seventeenth in passing success rate. They're 375 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 3: terrible in standard downs, but their top thirty in success 376 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:56,959 Speaker 3: rate exposed to us in passing down. So when they 377 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 3: get behind schedule, they're able to go crazy and find 378 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 3: day Bell and he does all the work. What you 379 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 3: really have to do the handicap down is to where 380 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 3: does Bell line up and who is going to be 381 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 3: guarding him? So if you look at it, he lines 382 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 3: up thirteen percent of the time in the slot eighty 383 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 3: seven percent of the time out wide. So coverage from 384 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 3: the corners is crucial for Wisconsin. That points directly to 385 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 3: Caesar Williams, who should be fresh, considering he only played 386 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 3: eight coverage snaps against Army. Army doesn't throw. Williams doesn't 387 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 3: have a huge rank and forced in completions, but the 388 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,160 Speaker 3: one hundred and fifty coverage snaps he has, he's only 389 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 3: been targeted twenty one times. Like I think quarterbacks are 390 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,719 Speaker 3: obviously avoiding him, and in the nine catches against him, 391 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 3: only twenty four yacts have been allowed. Extremely important. So 392 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 3: the point is Caesar Williams is not going to force 393 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 3: in completions on David Bell, but the second David Bell 394 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 3: makes the reception, there's no yards after catch been allowed 395 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 3: at all. And the most important stat that you can 396 00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 3: find on Caesar Williams zero missed tackles. This year, Bell's 397 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 3: going to get the ball, but the Wisconsin secondary is 398 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 3: going to be right on top of him. I don't 399 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 3: want to take the three and a half on Wisconsin. 400 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 3: That's the play. The plays Wisconsin. I really don't want 401 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:08,880 Speaker 3: that hook. 402 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 2: Well right now at win bet it's three flat big, 403 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 2: so I agree with you. I agree on Wisconsin. I 404 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 2: would actually lead under two another under in Wisconsin. Shocker. 405 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 2: Last spot here is Utah after their big win. Emotional 406 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 2: week for Utah, right they went to the funeral in 407 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 2: Texas and then they come back and then they have 408 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 2: a comeback win over Arizona State out of the wide 409 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 2: open PAC twelve and this game will go a long 410 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 2: way determining both divisions. Utah is a three point favorite 411 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 2: at Oregon State over under fifty six at win bet. 412 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 2: So you had Utah last week. Guy at Amazon State. 413 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 2: Last year. Last year I was beating you at all, 414 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 2: all the head to heads when we were against the other. 415 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 2: This year you're bding b at everyone. So I hope 416 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 2: that you're not a Utah again. I did place to 417 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 2: Oregon State. I think it's an awful spot. I mean, 418 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 2: Oregon State's coming off of a bye Utah, that emotional 419 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 2: week beat our Zota State. You know, big game on 420 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 2: deck going up to Corvals. This is might be the 421 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 2: biggest game in Corvallis ten years now. Look one of 422 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,320 Speaker 2: the weaknesses that I said, and you nailed it with 423 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 2: Arizona State last week, thirteen penalties for one hundred and 424 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 2: fifteen yards. Arizona State still ran for over six yards 425 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: per carry. If you remove the sacks at the very 426 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 2: end of the game, with their best so they were 427 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:23,680 Speaker 2: running it, you could run on this Utah team. Not 428 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 2: enough people are talked about this Oregon State offensive lide. 429 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 2: I think they're number one in live yards. I think 430 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 2: they're gonna be able to move the ball on the ground. 431 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 2: I think this is a flat spot for Utah. I 432 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 2: took the three at home with the beaves. I'm hoping 433 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 2: you don't disagree, because you would beat me and he's 434 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 2: had to head that. 435 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:41,479 Speaker 3: I want to agree with you, but I haven't made 436 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 3: a play on Oregon State. I took a different angle 437 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 3: at this. So by the time this game kicks, Oregon 438 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 3: State could be playing for sole possession of the North 439 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 3: and Utah I had, like you said, Utah hasse because 440 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 3: the UCLA Oregon game is earlier in the day, and 441 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 3: I guess we'll talk about that one later. But Oregon 442 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 3: State maybe coming out of the locker room onto the 443 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 3: field with eight ton of pressure on them, you know, 444 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 3: to own the North, which is a shock. But I mean, 445 00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 3: you got to look at Utah just this emotional week 446 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 3: of practice, a big win to lead in the South. 447 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 3: If you go and look at their box scores, it 448 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 3: just it wouldn't surprise me from the least if we 449 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 3: have an extremely slow start from Utah if you look 450 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 3: at it since Cam Rising has taken over as quarterback. 451 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 3: Seven points in the first half against Arizona State, seven 452 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,399 Speaker 3: points in the first half against Washington State, ten points 453 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 3: in the first half against San Diego State. This is 454 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 3: not a Utah team that is like ready to play 455 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 3: the first thirty minute. I don't know what's going on 456 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 3: with these guys, but the utes are just not a 457 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 3: first half team. Oregon State comes off of a bye 458 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 3: week after a loss to Wazoo with a Chance Nolan 459 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 3: interception that was the driver for the leading score in 460 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 3: the third quarter by the Kogs. The Beavers lead the 461 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 3: PAC twelve in time of possession, and they've ran two 462 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 3: hundred and eighty eight plays and standard downs to your 463 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 3: mention of that offensive line going crazy, Oregon State two 464 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 3: hundred eighty eight plays and standardowns only one hundred and sixteen. 465 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 3: In passing down Oregon State is number one in the country, 466 00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,479 Speaker 3: not just in the line yards, standard down success rate, 467 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:09,120 Speaker 3: and any down and distance. When you obtain six point 468 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 3: one yards per carry on first and ten on second 469 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 3: and seven, you're moving the chains every time. So we 470 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 3: talked about the handicap last week being Utah's defense is 471 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 3: great and stuff right, they can get behind the line 472 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 3: of scrimmage, but if they don't, there's going to be 473 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 3: explosive runs. And there was a lot of Arizona State 474 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 3: explosive runs and they also got stopped. That comes into 475 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 3: player once again. Utah is thirteenth and stuff right, there's 476 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 3: seventy sixth and standard down success rate, so Utah's bread 477 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 3: and butter is ninth nationally and tackles for loss per game. 478 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 3: Utah gets behind the line of scrimmage real fast on defense. 479 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 3: If they don't hit behind the line of scrimmage, there's 480 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 3: going to be very long sustained Oregon State drives in 481 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 3: this game. I think that plays into the plus three. 482 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 3: You know very well if you're playing the Beavers plus three. 483 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 3: That's the reason why is you know they're they're gonna 484 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 3: be able to avoid this Utah defense. Another area to 485 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 3: worry if you're Utah. Oregon State is third and finished 486 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 3: drives twenty five scores for Oregon State this season. Twenty 487 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 3: one of them have been touchdowns. Twenty one of them 488 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 3: have been touchdowns, so there's no field goal kicking here. 489 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 3: So keep an eye on the status of Jake Levin 490 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 3: Goood at the left guard. He's one of their best blockers. 491 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 3: He's queshed more with an ankle injury, but if he's 492 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 3: good to go, this organ State team's gonna run all 493 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 3: over the place, so Utah can certainly counter on offense. 494 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 3: Organ States outside the top one hundred and rushing success. 495 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 3: Right on defense, they're one hundred and nineteenth and tackle 496 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 3: grading pretty terrible. Cam Rising gets a pass rush the 497 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 3: ranks one hundreds. So it's just gonna take time for Utah. 498 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 3: If they can, you know, if they can come out 499 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 3: and show some life in the first half, which they've 500 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 3: never done, if they can, you know, catch up before 501 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,119 Speaker 3: it's too late, you know, they're gonna be able to 502 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 3: get some work done in here. So, I mean, there's 503 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 3: a high rank of eleventh for havoc on the Oregon 504 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 3: State defense, but that's all passes defense. Oregon State is 505 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:50,719 Speaker 3: third in the country in PBUs per game, So if 506 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 3: Utah is gonna win this game, it's got to be 507 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 3: on the ground. And saying that Utah knows that they're 508 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 3: going to probably keep it on the ground. Organ State's 509 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 3: going to sustain drives on the ground, They're going to 510 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 3: win time of possession battle. Utah frequently comes out slow. 511 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 3: The Beavers back seven is leading units in the nation 512 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 3: and PBUs I like your plus three. I'm playing first 513 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 3: half under. I don't think Utah shows up in the 514 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 3: first half. Could be a lot of pressure on Oregon 515 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 3: State being the North lead. I mean, there's a lot 516 00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 3: of things here, ground game based both sides. I'm waiting 517 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 3: for the steam though I know it hasn't come through 518 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 3: on the action app. The oversteam is still going. I 519 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 3: want to get that twenty eight and a half for 520 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 3: the first half to get the under on that the 521 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 3: full game. The key number, like one of the biggest 522 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,439 Speaker 3: key numbers, is fifty nine, fourth highest key number in totals. 523 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 3: I'll wait to see if we get that once they do. 524 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 3: I like the under fair enough, good handicap there. 525 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 2: Before we move on, a quick reminder to our listeners, 526 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,199 Speaker 2: the Big Bets on Campus podcasts presented by win Bet Sportsbook. 527 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 2: They've got a great sign off offer for you guys 528 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 2: this season.

Let's 541 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 2: check out the marquee matchups we'll all end up betting 542 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 2: for week eight. All right, let's start with October. We 543 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 2: have Iowa State is a seven point home favorite. We 544 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 2: met over under forty eight. I could say I kind 545 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 2: of like this under and I like Iowa State like seven. 546 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,640 Speaker 2: I cannot tell you like if you look at from 547 00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,120 Speaker 2: an adjusted EPA perspectives of you just for hopefield and competition. 548 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 2: Teams have similar defenses that have played really well all year. 549 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: But the Iowa State offense is actually decent. The Oklahoma 550 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 2: State offense is atrocious. If you look at Iowa State, 551 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 2: which is two losses, they out gained to Iowa by 552 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 2: over two yards per play. You know, they hold up 553 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 2: under two undred yards. They lost to Baylor on you know, 554 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 2: they should have beat Bairel. They outplayed bail There was 555 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 2: a kick return for a touchdown. And then you look 556 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 2: at this the Oklahoma State team. I mean, when is 557 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 2: this gonna end? I mean there's things that aren't even 558 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:31,000 Speaker 2: showing up in like postgame win expectancy. They had no 559 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 2: business winning that Texas game. Texas about to go twenty 560 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 2: four to three and they throw a pick six. Boise 561 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,399 Speaker 2: State beats Oklahoma State, but the refs blow the whistle 562 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 2: and they just decide that Boissetate's not allowed to run 563 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 2: the fumble, and then Boise State misses a field goal. 564 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 2: They get a kick return at the end of the 565 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 2: Tulsa game, and they had a third and nineteen that 566 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 2: wasn't reviewed when they scored a touchdown on I mean insane. 567 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,399 Speaker 2: This is a team that barely beat Missouri State to 568 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 2: open the season. Their offense is dreadful. What did they 569 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 2: do against Texas that whole nothing on offense against Texas's defense. 570 00:28:03,040 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 2: I don't know how this Oklaoba State team scores against 571 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: Iowa State, to be quite frank So I'd like the 572 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,360 Speaker 2: seven all of Iowa State money line in some kind 573 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 2: of parliad baby multiple and I kind of like the 574 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,640 Speaker 2: under as well. The Iowa State offense is it going 575 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 2: to value? And Oklahoma State sefuts is really good. They 576 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 2: match up well here. They can match up with their 577 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 2: tight ends that Iowa State loves to throw to. Haul 578 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 2: will do enough on the ground, pert, I mean it's 579 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 2: it's October. Ho'll make enough throws. Iowa State wins this 580 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 2: by two touchdowns. Let's say you. 581 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 3: Agree this is a must win game for both teams 582 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,760 Speaker 3: to keep up with Oklahoma in the Big twelve race. 583 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 3: Give Oklahoma State credit as they look dead to rights 584 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 3: with Texas about to punch out of TD to go 585 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 3: up twenty four to three, and that game got turned 586 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 3: around a hurry with an eighty five yard pick six. 587 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 3: And a few weeks ago, I was boasting about Texas 588 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 3: and start putting up Alabama like numbers and available yards 589 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 3: getting ninety percent when the national average is forty four percent. 590 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 3: The Cowboys limited Texas to just twenty nine percent of 591 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 3: available yards. I was a little bit surprised by that. 592 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 3: I mean, Texas was stopped on twelve of thirty runs 593 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 3: and they only scored. Texas only scored on explosive plays. 594 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 3: So for Oklahoma State to win this game, they must 595 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 3: eliminate Iowa State explosive plays. And so far this season, 596 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 3: the pokest defense has kept opponents under national average and 597 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 3: every success strate split, but they've allowed sixteen percent of 598 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,959 Speaker 3: drives to be explosive, well over national average. So wouldn't 599 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 3: you know it? The Iowa State offense is one of 600 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 3: the most explosive in early downs twenty fifth and standard 601 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 3: downs explosiveness, which is where Texas attacked and where Oklahoma 602 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 3: State ranked seventy second on defense. So Jim Noles has 603 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 3: the Cowboys as the third best defense against explosiveness and 604 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 3: passing downs. But it's the first and ten and the 605 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 3: second and seven where offenses are getting behind the Oklahoma 606 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 3: State defense. The spread is interesting for Iowa State. I mean, 607 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 3: this is b October, but this is a series that 608 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 3: has been decided by one possession every year since twenty fourteen, 609 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 3: almost like clockwork in late October. This Iowa State team 610 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 3: is rolling right now. I mentioned that Iowa State will 611 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 3: get pressure on Spencer Sanders. That is a huge factor 612 00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 3: in this game. In forty seven pressure dropbacks this season, 613 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 3: Spencer Sanders has one big time throw and five turnover 614 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 3: worthy plays. Is just a completion percentage falls thirty two 615 00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 3: percent classic Spencer Sanders for years. You get any kind 616 00:30:21,120 --> 00:30:23,760 Speaker 3: of hand in this space and anything could happen. From 617 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 3: a havoc perspective, this is an Iowa State play at seven. 618 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 3: I'd like to avoid the seven and a half. But 619 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 3: there's a big difference in tackle grading here. Thirteenth for 620 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 3: the Cyclones on defense, one hundred and third for the 621 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 3: Pokes on defense. That's a bad variable to have for 622 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 3: the Cowboys against an explosive offense. So b October Baby 623 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 3: minus seven. Let's go. 624 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 2: Yeah that the o Cloba State lock. 625 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 3: That's Oh, Brad's gonna hate all everything about this. 626 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 2: On Saturday morning, Yeah, big Bets on Campus Live ten 627 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: thirty a of Eastern on Twitter will tweet out the 628 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 2: Lake second Marquee game of the weekend. Here we have ten. 629 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,719 Speaker 2: I want to see a twenty five point underdog traveling 630 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 2: to Tuscaloosa to face Alabama over under sixty seven and 631 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 2: a half. I think, look, Alabama is a weird tea 632 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 2: to figure out. They some some weeks they look great. 633 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 2: Some weeks they look like they have major issues. I 634 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 2: don't even know if I can take too much away 635 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 2: from last week on the defensive side of the ball, 636 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 2: because in the first quarter Will Rodgers gets hurt and 637 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 2: he's holding his shoulder the entire game. He can't make 638 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 2: any throws and throws three picks. He was just late 639 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 2: and I don't know why they kept them in that 640 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 2: entire game. He so then he had a couple of 641 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 2: our eyes this week and a sprayed at mc joy. 642 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 2: But the Alabama offense, I mean, the Misissippi State defense 643 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 2: is good, which just doing whatever it wanted. Tennessee me, 644 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 2: while I was disappointed they got the chef on a 645 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 2: couple of calls. Bad weekend for the sec reps, but 646 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 2: I mean that's the old Bess off defense. I'm surprised 647 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 2: that they couldn't put up more Hendon Hooker did get 648 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 2: hurt at the end of that game. That's huge here 649 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 2: for me. I would like Tennessee if I could guarantee 650 00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 2: that he's going to play. I think this lot is inflated. 651 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 2: But if it's Joe Bilton, I don't want any part 652 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 2: of it. And Hooker was practicing this week stay with Cade. 653 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 2: May's one of their best offensive live who's bagged up, 654 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 2: But like I think it was a hamstring And do 655 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 2: you really want to risk him here against Alavada? I 656 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 2: don't know that's but that's the endcap here. For me, 657 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 2: if I could guarantee the Hooker was quite and healthy, 658 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 2: I would play Tennessee. If not, it might just be 659 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 2: a pass. 660 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a tough deliverable for our podcast listeners 661 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 3: because the number is completely dependent upon Hindon Hooker playing. 662 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 3: We don't know. He's questionable, suffered a leg injury and 663 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 3: so whole miss. But it's not just that center Cooper Mays, 664 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 3: right tackle Cade Mays. They didn't play for much of 665 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 3: the old Miss game. Now, running back Tyon Evans is 666 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 3: also questionable for this game, and if you're missing all 667 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 3: these offensive pieces, you can understand why this is more 668 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 3: than a touchdown than what the projected point spread would 669 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 3: be if all those guys were healthy. The one thing 670 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 3: we know about hypel it doesn't matter who's on the 671 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 3: offensive line, and it doesn't matter whose quarterback he's gonna 672 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 3: on tempo. And I feel like that is like the 673 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 3: worst thing ever. That's like John Snow running into Ramsey's army, 674 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 3: you know, like in the Battle of Bastards and Game 675 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 3: of Thrones, Like what the hell are you running tempo 676 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 3: against against saban for like welcome to the SEC. Guy 677 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: makes a mistake, you want to condemn them. So one 678 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 3: of the reasons that Alabama struggled with Florida and lost 679 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 3: to Texas A and M was that their defensive units 680 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,880 Speaker 3: in the trench just failed them. Sixtieth and pass rush 681 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 3: the defense as a whole seventy third and passing success 682 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 3: rate and one hundred and second and finishing drives, and 683 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 3: opponents have scored on sixteen of eighteen red zone attempts, 684 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 3: ten of those being touchdowns. Tennessee is a top twenty 685 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 3: five unit offensive finishing drives. But like I said, if 686 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 3: they don't have these players there, then it's hard to 687 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 3: rely on these numbers. The Voles run sixty four percent 688 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,480 Speaker 3: of snaps and they ranked tenth in rushing success rate. 689 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 3: That you know, you kind of go back to that 690 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 3: Florida game and the Gators ran sixty percent attempts and 691 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 3: they weren't stuffed at all, and they averaged five point 692 00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 3: nine yards per play on the ground. They were able 693 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,640 Speaker 3: to beat Alabama by grinding on them. So Tennessee has 694 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 3: to have a healthy offensive line. Evans and Hooker have 695 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 3: created fifty miss tackles in the running game this Year's 696 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 3: that's crazy. If those key players are out, then this 697 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 3: game is going to be over fast with Hypel trying 698 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 3: to run tempo. So I think if those players do play, 699 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 3: if there is one betting deliverable from this, If Henon 700 00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 3: Hooker is playing, and the Mays kids are on the 701 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 3: offensive line, and Evans is playing or running back, then 702 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 3: Alabama is probably in one of these modes where they 703 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 3: want to be get a twenty one point lead and 704 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 3: let Brian Robinson just plow. They're heading into a bye 705 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 3: week after this. They've got LSU in two weeks. They're 706 00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:39,240 Speaker 3: heading into a bye They probably would like everybody healthy. 707 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 3: This may be the one time that Saban doesn't care 708 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 3: about covering an inflated spread. So you know, I'm not 709 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 3: saying that you should be betting on the under or 710 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 3: that you should be betting on Tennessee, But if all 711 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 3: of those offensive players are healthy, there's a lot of 712 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 3: value in this Tennessee number. Now, you know they have 713 00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 3: to play, and that's going to be last minute information. 714 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,800 Speaker 3: So if that number is still sitting up there and 715 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 3: we get Hendon Hooker, Evans, the Maze kids on the 716 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 3: offensive line, then Tennessee is to play. But man, it's 717 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,320 Speaker 3: really tough supporting a tempo offense going into the teeth 718 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 3: of Alabama. Incidentally, don't ask me. 719 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:16,759 Speaker 2: I don't have anything else to say about it. Yeah, 720 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 2: it's a really good point. Next game here, this is 721 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 2: your chance to convince the audience of it. Over a 722 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 2: San Diego State over undefeated San Diego State heads to 723 00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 2: air Force Colorado Springs. Air Force three and a half 724 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 2: point favorite over under a thirty nine and a half 725 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 2: is a huge shoutout in the Mountain West. Yes, air 726 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 2: Force only has one loss on the season. 727 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 3: You tweeted me and you talked to me on the pod, 728 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 3: But you love this shit too. You know why because 729 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 3: you love the punter. You love mattaresa Ray guy. I mean, 730 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 3: this guy's what eighty six yard punt against San Jose State, 731 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 3: He's a he's what averaging they. 732 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:59,320 Speaker 2: Did fifty five yard field goals, but he's been unbelievable. 733 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 3: Three hundred and fifty nine year yards a game and punting. 734 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,880 Speaker 3: I mean, this kid is a This kid's an animal altitude. 735 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 3: Imagine what far is, Oh, Katie, I didn't even think 736 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 3: about that. I would like to see like this kid's 737 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 3: punts versus maybe like a maybe like a Bryson d 738 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 3: schambeau flop wedge. I wonder which one would go farther anyways, 739 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 3: So if you want to be at air Force football, 740 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 3: you must be good at a stopping the run, b 741 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,439 Speaker 3: being elite, and stuff rate. Because of the triple triple option, 742 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 3: offense isn't so much at looking at the line yards. 743 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 3: Lineyards are important when you're looking at ground based attacks, 744 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 3: but triple options is a little bit different because you 745 00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 3: got to stop fullback first. And stuff rate is important 746 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,240 Speaker 3: because it grades the line of scrimmage and the tackles 747 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 3: for loss. Air Force is fifth and rushing success rate 748 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 3: with their triple option, and they have an offensive stuff 749 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 3: rate rank of eighth. That means not a lot of 750 00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,320 Speaker 3: people are stuffing them whatsoever. Air Force is seventh in 751 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 3: the nation and tackles for loss allowed. Nobody's getting behind 752 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage. They average just three and a 753 00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 3: half tackles for loss per game, so you have to 754 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,480 Speaker 3: ask who is elite in getting into the backfield. San 755 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 3: Diego State, the Hasitecs are third, and tackles for loss 756 00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:06,000 Speaker 3: per game they average eight and a half per game. 757 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 3: But the most important stat is that the Aztecs are 758 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 3: second and defensive stuff rate. It's truly a power on 759 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 3: power battle when the Air Force Triple meets up with 760 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,759 Speaker 3: the San Diego State front seven. So it's good on 761 00:37:18,880 --> 00:37:21,280 Speaker 3: good and there's only two teams the Air Force schedule 762 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 3: have stopped the Air Force attack above national average Wyoming, 763 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 3: whose defensive line is you know, really good from a 764 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 3: G five level, and the Navy, who practices against the 765 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 3: Triple every single day. But Brady Hoke is just he's 766 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 3: no stranger to Air Force whatsoever. And he's no stranger 767 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 3: to Troy Calhoun. When he was at San Diego State 768 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 3: in two thousand and nine and twenty ten, hees faced him. 769 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,720 Speaker 3: San Diego State has won eight straight in this series, 770 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,879 Speaker 3: dating all the way back Hoki and Calhoun first faced off, 771 00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 3: you know, maybe twelve years ago. But you know, Brady 772 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,240 Speaker 3: Hoak also had to see him when he was at Michigan. 773 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 3: He had a I think Michigan was ranked number nineteen, 774 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:55,840 Speaker 3: and they barely escape for their life against Troy Calhoun. 775 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 3: Every time they play, it's a one possession game. Lucas 776 00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 3: Johnson is going to be in here. Starting quarterback. Brady 777 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 3: Hoak said he's got the hot hand and he got 778 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,760 Speaker 3: the win against San Jose State and relief. He averaged 779 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 3: six point eight yards per carry. We have to monitor 780 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 3: Greg Bell, running back Greg Bell and left tackle Zachary Thomas. 781 00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 3: Zachary Thomas is the anchor of this offensive line. Both 782 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:16,880 Speaker 3: of those guys miss practice on Tuesday. I haven't been 783 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 3: able to find a report about their status for this game. 784 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,400 Speaker 3: They're not even listed as questionable. They just miss practice 785 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 3: on Tuesday. So that is something I'm monitoring before I 786 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 3: make a play on this. There is a monster gap 787 00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 3: in special teams here. We talked about it from the 788 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 3: punting standpoint. The Santego State is fourteenth and air Force 789 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 3: is one hundred and twelve, So Santay State has got 790 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 3: the defense to defend the triple option. Brady Hoag knows 791 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:39,560 Speaker 3: how to go after the fullback. He knows how to 792 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:41,680 Speaker 3: go after pitch. He's seen Troy Callihan way too many 793 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 3: times in his life. So if the market wants to 794 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:45,920 Speaker 3: give me three and a half and a game that 795 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 3: I personally feel is going to go to overtime, I 796 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 3: bet at overtime prop on this game. Much like last week, 797 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 3: I would happily take three and a half. I do 798 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 3: need Thomas at left tackle and Greg Bell in the backfield. 799 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 3: If that's there, give me the Aztecs. So is that 800 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 3: why you're recommending the over. You're counting on overtime here. 801 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 3: You know how hard it was not to bet over 802 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 3: nineteen and a half live God that was. I was like, 803 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:12,439 Speaker 3: this is definitely going over. There's no way this isn't 804 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 3: going over. As techovers, I like the underhere. 805 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 2: All right, our next game, Oregon at Ucla. Ucla is 806 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 2: a one and a half point favorite over under fifty 807 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 2: nine and a half. This is pretty ugly card this week. 808 00:39:27,640 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 2: Oh by the way, make sure you check out our 809 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 2: group of five guys who have been killing it by 810 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 2: Calabresi and Ianello. They rode a nice where they hit 811 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 2: their round robin again last week, so big, sure you 812 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:43,200 Speaker 2: check that out on Wednesday afternoons. All right, So Oregon 813 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 2: at Ucla, you say, like one and a half point 814 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 2: favorite at home? I played Ucla here. Look we saw 815 00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:51,640 Speaker 2: Orgon get that win in the opener against a lot 816 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 2: of State. I said, whoa, But you know, you go 817 00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 2: back and look down. It's like, all right, Kerry Koob's 818 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 2: defense that Ohio State and we've seen Oregon since we 819 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,960 Speaker 2: thought the Orgon team coming to the year was extremely overrated. 820 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 2: We are not fans of Anthony Brown. There's there's even 821 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 2: articles this week that are saying the organ to come 822 00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 2: out and said that we're sticking with Anthony Brown, like 823 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 2: fans are calling for the backup. But this is a 824 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:20,839 Speaker 2: pretty simple handicap for me. Ucla this year on defense 825 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:24,879 Speaker 2: has been very good against the run. Their defensive line 826 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 2: has been very strong. They've been a little vulnerable in 827 00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 2: the secondary. Well, I don't trust Oregon to exploit that 828 00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 2: with their downfield passing attack. On the other side of 829 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 2: the ball, you could run on this Oregon team. I 830 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,319 Speaker 2: think you said I was going to control the lote 831 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 2: of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. I expect Phillips, 832 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 2: their best receiver, to be back this week. He didn't 833 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 2: play last week and Dtrs looked healthy dealing with that 834 00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 2: shoulder injury. So I think that that's the handicap for me. 835 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 2: I like Ucla just because of the matchup both sides 836 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:58,839 Speaker 2: of the ball. I don't think Anthony Brown can take 837 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 2: advantage of UCLA's secondary with downfield passing, and I think 838 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 2: ucla Is heavy rush attack can have success against Oregon, thoughts. 839 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, one of percent agree Again, I mean maybe could 840 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 3: be either really bad week or really good week. We'll 841 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,720 Speaker 3: have to have maybe the same day with State overall 842 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 3: figure it out. But you say it was the first 843 00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 3: play I made when lines were released on Sunday. I 844 00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 3: pushed as much money as I could over the counter, 845 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 3: and I would play it up to three. I mean, 846 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,399 Speaker 3: these two teams both run at a sixty percent clip 847 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 3: passing downs being the Achilles for both both. These top 848 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,760 Speaker 3: offenses or top ten and stuff rate, meaning they control 849 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage and they run all day. The 850 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 3: difference is tackling. Oregon has struggled. They have a rank 851 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 3: of one hundred and fourth in tackling and UCLA is 852 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,319 Speaker 3: up to fifty fifth. And you say, well fifty fifth 853 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 3: isn't that great? Go check out twenty twenty stats for 854 00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,920 Speaker 3: the UCLA defense. Another problem with the Ducks the defense 855 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 3: is not generating any havoc. I mean zero havoc whatsoever. 856 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 3: At this point the season, they have twenty two PBUs. 857 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,320 Speaker 3: It's just not enough. They're one hundred and eleventh in coverage. 858 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:00,680 Speaker 3: And the only reason I talk about that is if 859 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 3: UCLA for some reason is not able to run the 860 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 3: ball on first and second down, Doring Thompson Robinson the game. 861 00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 3: You know, we're not going to have the game depend 862 00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:09,400 Speaker 3: on his arm. But if it does come down to 863 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 3: passing downs, Orgon's not forcing their will on anybody. They're 864 00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:16,439 Speaker 3: not making anybody scramble, They're not making anybody sweat. Their 865 00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,560 Speaker 3: coverage rank is outside the top one hundred. So you know, 866 00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 3: still to this day, like Doriry Thompson, Robinson is having 867 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,800 Speaker 3: his best year ever as a UCLA quarterback. You know, 868 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 3: he's not making any turnover worthy plays. He has yet 869 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 3: to have a bad game, and consider that the past 870 00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 3: three years he had forty four turnover worthy plays. I mean, 871 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 3: it's really a pretty amazing season what they've done there 872 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 3: with him to get him to eliminate mistakes. So not 873 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,360 Speaker 3: only as you say, better when it comes to establishing 874 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 3: the run, they are extremely creative and you wonder you 875 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 3: watch that LSU game. The reason why that LSU game 876 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 3: was just a masterpiece by Chip Kelly. The Bruins ran 877 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:56,120 Speaker 3: nine different formations against LSU. They disguised every single thing 878 00:42:56,160 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 3: they wanted to do. You know, Oregon does get Joe 879 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:00,920 Speaker 3: Moore head back there is that aspect to the game. 880 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 3: Joe Moorehead was not there for the Stanford game they lost. 881 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 3: Then Joe Morehead because of COVID protocols, had to be 882 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,480 Speaker 3: in the box. Last week they almost lost to cal 883 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 3: He gets to get back on the sideline. So that 884 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 3: is a boost. I'm not a better What is that boost? 885 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:18,239 Speaker 3: The communication? Like the speed the tempo. I mean the 886 00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 3: tempo was actually faster when he was gone, believe it 887 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:21,920 Speaker 3: or not. I mean I heard some people say, oh, 888 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,400 Speaker 3: it's definitely gonna go over. It has nothing to do 889 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 3: with Joe Moorehead being on the sidelines. They averaged twenty 890 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 3: four seconds per play when he's on the sidelines and 891 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 3: twenty two seconds per play when he wasn't on the sideline. 892 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,240 Speaker 3: So that doesn't make any sense. But the Ducks offense 893 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 3: has been fantastic with Anthony Brown in the running game, 894 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 3: and they have a success rate seventy percent higher than 895 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,360 Speaker 3: national average. But you're right. Line yards for UCLA they 896 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:46,080 Speaker 3: ranked fifth and without CJ. Verdell, this organ rush unit 897 00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:48,880 Speaker 3: is just there's no depth. All the running backs have 898 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 3: been on the roster have told they have been told, 899 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 3: you're in the rotation, you're getting carries this week, and 900 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 3: that could lead to fumbles. You know, if the orgon 901 00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:58,359 Speaker 3: rush attack isn't gaining yards without Verdell, it's Curtains. It's over. 902 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 3: Chip wins this one and the PAC twelve is done 903 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 3: as far as the playoff is concerned. 904 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 2: YEP, completely agree. Last Markie Game of the week is UH, 905 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:12,640 Speaker 2: the a CC favorite hosting Clemson. Pitt is a can 906 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 2: you believe this? A three point favorite at win bet 907 00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:17,360 Speaker 2: over Clemson? What was this? 908 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 3: What was this? 909 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 2: Preseason live seventeen over under forty eight. When you look 910 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:30,320 Speaker 2: at Clemson, just the DPA for play, they are slightly 911 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:32,759 Speaker 2: worse than they're basically Iowa. If you look if you 912 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 2: chart their offensive defense, defense still elite. Offense is terrible. 913 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 2: I mean you could not tell if you had profiles 914 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:44,760 Speaker 2: about their dames adjust the DPA for play, it's Ioway's Clemson. 915 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:49,280 Speaker 2: This team can't do anything on offense. So the defense 916 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 2: is still elite. So it comes down to ken. Kenny 917 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,399 Speaker 2: Pickett continued, he's just continuous toward pace. He's just ripping 918 00:44:55,400 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 2: apart offenses. The offensive line has been tremendous. They had 919 00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:01,839 Speaker 2: a lot of drop issues last year have gone away. Uh, 920 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 2: the offense is rolling. The defense has played really well. 921 00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:07,239 Speaker 2: It's an aggressive defense. We talk about this all the time. 922 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 2: Press bad islands on the on the quarters. They play 923 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 2: a lot of quarter stay, so you can attack them 924 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,720 Speaker 2: with exposive place. I don't know if clubs it's capable 925 00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 2: of doing that right now. 926 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 3: Dabo. 927 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 2: By the way, Dabo throw it to yell. 928 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 3: Dabo is O and. 929 00:45:22,040 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 2: Six against the spread. Here are the teams that haven't 930 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:25,879 Speaker 2: covered yet this year. This is the company the clubs 931 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:30,800 Speaker 2: that's in now New Mexico. Oh and seven Kansas. This 932 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,359 Speaker 2: can does ever cover? Good lord, they always get Steve too, 933 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:37,480 Speaker 2: jess O and six against the spread. And Missouri. Missouri's 934 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 2: O and seven against the spread. Yeah, in twelve against 935 00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,160 Speaker 2: the spread, and then then that will fade. I mean 936 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 2: the bad Boy Meller's Gasparillion Bowl. It'll go with thirteen 937 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 2: against the spread. 938 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,879 Speaker 3: Bad boy, Yeah, the Gasparilla Bowl, which, by the way, 939 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 3: I had to talk with my grandma this past week 940 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:53,399 Speaker 3: and I said, we're gonna play bowl, not a bowl. 941 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 3: And I started asking her things like is there a 942 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,279 Speaker 3: such thing as a as a in and out bowl? 943 00:45:58,360 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 3: And she's like, yeah, there's in an out bowl. So 944 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:01,240 Speaker 3: whenever we get that video. 945 00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:02,359 Speaker 2: Came, that's a fantastic game. 946 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,000 Speaker 3: It's gonna be great. I have been very aggressive in 947 00:46:06,080 --> 00:46:10,040 Speaker 3: adjusting Clemson, extremely aggressive. They are dead last and big 948 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:11,919 Speaker 3: play rate on offense, their one hundred and twenty fourth 949 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 3: and passing success rate. They can't run on anybody. They 950 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 3: can't score when they're in scoring position. The defense is 951 00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 3: now eighty third in pass rush. What this is a 952 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:27,040 Speaker 3: Brent Vnables defense that's eighty third and pass rush. How 953 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 3: is that even possible? And you know, Pitt is a 954 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:31,680 Speaker 3: top ten team as far as pass blocking goes and 955 00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 3: keeping Kidney pick it clean. The issue that I have 956 00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 3: with this game is that I don't know how anybody's 957 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 3: going to score. You know, Pit far out ranks. Pitt 958 00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 3: has enough defense easily to shut down what Clemson wants 959 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,000 Speaker 3: to do offensively. But when you look at the other side, 960 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 3: Pitt's number one in the nation offensive finishing drives. They're 961 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 3: number five and big play rate in the nation. But 962 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:55,400 Speaker 3: the problem is the Clemson defense is number one in 963 00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 3: defending big plays and their number three in defensive finishing drives. 964 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,239 Speaker 3: Under Yeah, under is the play for me. I mean, 965 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 3: it's a game that I project forty nine looks like 966 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,400 Speaker 3: we're down to forty eight. Forty eight is way more 967 00:47:05,440 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 3: key than forty nine, believe it or not. So if 968 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,319 Speaker 3: you can get forty eight or forty eight and a half, 969 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:12,680 Speaker 3: then under is going to be the player because I 970 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,759 Speaker 3: just don't see with the pace of play and the 971 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 3: deal what the defenses bring to the table. I don't 972 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:20,560 Speaker 3: see many points being scored here. 973 00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 2: I agree again, that's the side that I was looking at. 974 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:26,359 Speaker 2: It's a big step up for picket and competition because 975 00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,919 Speaker 2: the clups of defense is still elite. All right, let's 976 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 2: move on to a little rapid fire and hit the rundown. 977 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 2: I'll throw a game out first. Wake Forest Army supporting 978 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 2: the troops here. This Wake Forest team has gotten extremely fortunate. 979 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 2: They should not be undefeated. I think their run ends here. Look, 980 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 2: it's a good spot for Wake in situationally, they're coming 981 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 2: off of a bye. Army just played Wisconsin, which you know, 982 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,640 Speaker 2: a physical game against Wisconsin. But it's this army like 983 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 2: they don't really have situational bad spots, like they just 984 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:01,160 Speaker 2: always show up. Look at Wake Farest what are they 985 00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 2: one hundred and twelve live yards, one hundred and twenty 986 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:08,920 Speaker 2: third opportunity rate ninetieth stuff. Right, they played Syracuse, Who's 987 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,839 Speaker 2: like they just want to run out of the shot done, Sarah, 988 00:48:11,880 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 2: you should have beat them, right wild. So I think 989 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:19,200 Speaker 2: that these two teams basically profile very similarly. If you 990 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 2: look at adjusted EPA per play and I'm getting Army 991 00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:27,399 Speaker 2: at home and catching three, gim me, give me, gimme, 992 00:48:27,480 --> 00:48:28,480 Speaker 2: I'm on the black nights. 993 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,280 Speaker 3: I think for me, this is a I need confirmation 994 00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:33,480 Speaker 3: that Christian Anderson is going to play. Now. Dave Clausen 995 00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 3: came out and said, we are preparing the Christian Anderson 996 00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:37,960 Speaker 3: is going to play. If he's playing for Army at quarterback, 997 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 3: Army's going to win this game flat out. You know, 998 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,560 Speaker 3: as far as the Wake offense goes, Army's thirty sixth 999 00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 3: and coverage grading and they're twenty eighth and tackling, So 1000 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 3: they're not terrible against the past now they were. This 1001 00:48:49,680 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 3: kind of reminds me of when Western Kentucky came to town, 1002 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:56,400 Speaker 3: right up tempo offense, pass happy, explosive plays. Western Kentucky 1003 00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 3: was down for more than a half before they finally 1004 00:48:58,120 --> 00:49:00,359 Speaker 3: came back and almost won the game in the four quarter. 1005 00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:04,400 Speaker 3: So Wake Forest doesn't excel in standard downs as a 1006 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 3: matter of fact, there's seventy ninth in success rate, but 1007 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:10,120 Speaker 3: they do excel in passing down success right their top ten. 1008 00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,760 Speaker 3: So Army allows just four point eight yards on defense 1009 00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:16,719 Speaker 3: when teams get behind schedule, So Wake has to have 1010 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,120 Speaker 3: some success rate here. Army's just gonna drain clock and 1011 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 3: run it all over them. A bad rush defense for 1012 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,600 Speaker 3: the Demon Deacons. If Christian Anderson is confirmed in playing, 1013 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 3: I think Army wins outright. 1014 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 2: I agree, Yeah, I'm assuming Yanters it is played this weekend. 1015 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 2: But that's that's a good point to raise your favorite 1016 00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:33,439 Speaker 2: team in the country. Do to day back at Action 1017 00:49:34,000 --> 00:49:36,239 Speaker 2: six and a half point favorites at home against USC 1018 00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:38,680 Speaker 2: over under fifty six and a half? Are you fad 1019 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:39,240 Speaker 2: of the Irish? 1020 00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:44,120 Speaker 3: I it's crazy, I actually am not. I'm gonna point 1021 00:49:44,160 --> 00:49:45,960 Speaker 3: everybody over to our Action network right up. I have 1022 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,200 Speaker 3: a full preview on this one. There are some things 1023 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 3: going on with USC that probably most people don't know about, 1024 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:53,839 Speaker 3: like Paddan Slovas, what his depth of target has been, 1025 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 3: how the defense has been reacting for USC. Some real 1026 00:49:57,320 --> 00:49:59,799 Speaker 3: positive things going on for Brian Kelly and the notre Dame, 1027 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:02,640 Speaker 3: and they've got a game plan figured out about what 1028 00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:05,280 Speaker 3: snaps Jack Cone is going to take and what snaps 1029 00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 3: the freshmen are going to take, trying to utilize the 1030 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,600 Speaker 3: legs on some of those freshman kids versus putting Jack 1031 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,480 Speaker 3: Cone in who's really threatened the needle in a pressured pocket? 1032 00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:16,000 Speaker 3: Pretty well? So full right up over at Action Network. 1033 00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:18,080 Speaker 2: Meyer should be back their study tight end as well. 1034 00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:19,240 Speaker 3: All right, we've. 1035 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:22,040 Speaker 2: Agreed way too much this podcast, so let's I'll do 1036 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 2: one that we're going to disagree on. Fresno State three 1037 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 2: point favorite over under sixty four and a half at 1038 00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 2: win bet. Now, what you're going to tell me is 1039 00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:36,080 Speaker 2: that Fresno State's secondary has been elite. Now, if that's 1040 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 2: the case, Fresdo State will win this game. Now. The 1041 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,360 Speaker 2: reason that I love, I mean, I'm get about Nevada 1042 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 2: here is I was hired on Nevada coming into the 1043 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 2: season just about anybody, right, So my prior dumbers are 1044 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:52,279 Speaker 2: still wagged into that right now, So I see value 1045 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:57,960 Speaker 2: on Nevada. Oh, Fresno State, their secondary has been unbelievable 1046 00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 2: this year. But let's let's take a closer look. They 1047 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:04,399 Speaker 2: played Connecticut, who was playing zergianas the turnover maschie who's 1048 00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,240 Speaker 2: now their third string quarterback. Yeah. Then they played Oregon. 1049 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 2: We don't really love the downfield passing attack of Oregon. Yeah. 1050 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 2: Then they played cal Poly. Then they played UCLA. You know, 1051 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:16,879 Speaker 2: they gave him thirty seven in that game, but that's 1052 00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 2: not a downfield passing attack. Yeah. Then they played UNLV 1053 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:23,120 Speaker 2: in a game where they were losing at the half 1054 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:28,040 Speaker 2: until Brumfeld got hurt, and you know, they won thirty 1055 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 2: eight thirty. Then they played Hawaii. They lost that Hawaii 1056 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,759 Speaker 2: and Hawaii's backup quarterback was playing. This isn't the best 1057 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:35,320 Speaker 2: downfield passing attack of the country. 1058 00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:35,759 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1059 00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:38,680 Speaker 2: Then they played Wyoming, who can't throw downfield and is 1060 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,440 Speaker 2: now talking about a quarterback change. Chambers went eight of 1061 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 2: twenty three for one hundred eleven yards. William Levey Walliams 1062 00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:46,360 Speaker 2: at one of seven for thirty two yards. They had 1063 00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,840 Speaker 2: four picks, so touchdowns. So they played a bunch of backups, 1064 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 2: a bunch of passing offenses that I don't trust, so 1065 00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 2: I'm gonna make them prove to be here. This is 1066 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,959 Speaker 2: the first competent passing offense with an NFL quarter future 1067 00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 2: NFL quarterback that's gonna be behind center. Go if you're right. 1068 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:04,880 Speaker 3: About this second that listen. I like Fresnoe State. I 1069 00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:08,400 Speaker 3: power rate it minus five. You know they're You're right. 1070 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,360 Speaker 3: They have the top twenty five coverage rank, they have 1071 00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,920 Speaker 3: a top twenty rank in defending the big play, and 1072 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:17,840 Speaker 3: their third and defensive havoc. But there are other things 1073 00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 3: that give me a little bit of a pause, and 1074 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:20,920 Speaker 3: I wouldn't want to play the three and a half. 1075 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:25,640 Speaker 3: I'd rather play the three mostly. Nevada's rank and passing 1076 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:28,040 Speaker 3: EPA is thirty ninth in the country, and not that 1077 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 3: that's you know, perfect or great, but that's where Fresno 1078 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,280 Speaker 3: State is terrible. Fresno State is one hundred and seventeenth 1079 00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 3: on defense and passing expected points. They can get torn 1080 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:38,960 Speaker 3: up pretty quick. And then if you turn around and 1081 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:42,160 Speaker 3: put that into say passing downs, you know Fresno State 1082 00:52:42,239 --> 00:52:44,920 Speaker 3: is extremely successful, but they're outside the top one hundred 1083 00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:47,880 Speaker 3: and defending explosiveness and passing downs. And that's where I 1084 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 3: think Carson Strong is going to have a ton of 1085 00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 3: success in this game. And Nevada is a pass happy 1086 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:57,520 Speaker 3: team anyways. Ah So, I think Fresno State's defensive ranks. 1087 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:00,160 Speaker 3: You know, I would never use the word fraud with 1088 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:02,560 Speaker 3: a Klin de four team, but I think that is 1089 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 3: going to have some success on explosive plays. Now, Fresno say, 1090 00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:07,480 Speaker 3: I think is the more steady offense. They're the ones 1091 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:09,239 Speaker 3: that will have the most success rate. But Nevadic can 1092 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,960 Speaker 3: hit the big pass here. So Fresno State minus three 1093 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:13,759 Speaker 3: I would not take the three and a half. 1094 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 2: All right, let's move on to our trash man segment 1095 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:17,319 Speaker 2: of the. 1096 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,960 Speaker 3: Week, the trash man pick of the week. 1097 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:23,920 Speaker 2: I'm the trash man. Just throw me the trash, your garbage, 1098 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 2: and you know it, totally unreliable, undependable. It that's it. 1099 00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:28,799 Speaker 2: You've been told off. 1100 00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 1: How do you like that? Good? 1101 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:32,840 Speaker 2: All right, I'm not taking any trash out this weekend, 1102 00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:35,839 Speaker 2: but I think that you are. And you have something 1103 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 2: in UMass Florida State. I saw that come through on Sunday. 1104 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 3: Yep, yeah, I know. I was going to see if 1105 00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,080 Speaker 3: they're raising the eyebrows. Listen, I make this game Florida 1106 00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:47,080 Speaker 3: State minus thirty. Umasses ran the ball one hundred and 1107 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 3: eighty seven times. They've passed the ball one hundred and 1108 00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:52,239 Speaker 3: eighty seven times, pretty split here, So you know, They've 1109 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,080 Speaker 3: had plenty of success on the ground. I mean, I 1110 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:56,439 Speaker 3: know that they have an even distribution here, but they've 1111 00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:58,920 Speaker 3: been really pretty okay on the ground. Fifteen runs over 1112 00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 3: twelve yards, so U MASS is just a one percentage 1113 00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 3: point shy of the national average. And explosive drives, they 1114 00:54:06,160 --> 00:54:09,000 Speaker 3: have a better explosive driver rate than Oklahoma State's offense 1115 00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:11,080 Speaker 3: to give you any kind of idea of how bad 1116 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:14,400 Speaker 3: Oklahoma State's explosive drives are. Florida State has Clemson on 1117 00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,680 Speaker 3: deck next week, and none of this current coaching staff 1118 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 3: or players could care less about U MASS and Walt Bell. 1119 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,040 Speaker 3: But I got news for you. Walt Bell cares a 1120 00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:28,080 Speaker 3: lot about Florida State. Willie Taggart took away his play 1121 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 3: calling a few years ago and what was a messy 1122 00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:33,320 Speaker 3: divorce before Walt Bell went off and took the U 1123 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:37,160 Speaker 3: MASS job and Taggard moved on his merry way. So there, 1124 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,320 Speaker 3: this is a really big game, and you know for 1125 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:41,359 Speaker 3: the players, for U MASS and for their head coach, 1126 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:43,879 Speaker 3: you know they're going to show up for this one. 1127 00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:45,799 Speaker 3: But that's spread as the thirty five and a half 1128 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,719 Speaker 3: way too high number. I project around thirty probably by 1129 00:54:49,800 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 3: it through thirty five, thirty four and a half. I 1130 00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:53,680 Speaker 3: don't know. I really like U mass in the spot. 1131 00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:55,359 Speaker 3: Such a big overlook for Florida. 1132 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:59,239 Speaker 2: State the Walt Bell revenge game. All right, let's move 1133 00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:03,840 Speaker 2: on to the the stick of the week. Smelly, smelly, mellly, 1134 00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:07,800 Speaker 2: it's the smell. It's quite pungent. Dude, plug your nose, 1135 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:16,480 Speaker 2: it's stinks. This is your stink of the week smell. 1136 00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 2: All right, let's look at the smelliest, fishiest lide on aboard. 1137 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:23,760 Speaker 2: You could argue NC State only playing three at Miabbi. 1138 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 2: I'm would say I would have say this. Look, Hawaii 1139 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,560 Speaker 2: was a seventeen to a half point favor at New 1140 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:34,759 Speaker 2: Mexico State three weeks ago they covered, and there were 1141 00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:37,239 Speaker 2: seventeen to a half point favorite at home against New 1142 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 2: Mexico State. They're playing again, by the way, this weekend. 1143 00:55:41,719 --> 00:55:44,239 Speaker 2: At all Hawaii's done since they beat Fresdo out right. 1144 00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 2: I know that there's like quarterback questions with who's gonna 1145 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,840 Speaker 2: play for Hawaii, But they're the same spread on the island. 1146 00:55:49,960 --> 00:55:52,880 Speaker 3: What do you got same Hawaii team that was up 1147 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:54,759 Speaker 3: seventeen to fourteen and I had him as a best 1148 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:56,759 Speaker 3: bet on the BBOC Live Show and they couldn't cover 1149 00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:59,919 Speaker 3: fourteen and a half for me, thank you very much. Whyyie, Listen, 1150 00:56:00,400 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 3: this is as stinky as against there's nothing stingering what 1151 00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 3: I'm about to tell you. Akron is going to be 1152 00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:11,040 Speaker 3: Buffalo Buffalo. Buffalo can't defend the run. They're dead last 1153 00:56:11,160 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 3: and passing down success rate. I know it's Akron, but 1154 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:17,319 Speaker 3: Buffalo should not be spotting double digits on the road 1155 00:56:17,400 --> 00:56:19,960 Speaker 3: to anybody on the FBS level at all. 1156 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:22,560 Speaker 2: And those kid Gibson's playing well since he came in. 1157 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:26,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, so listen, don't fall off your chair Saturday morning 1158 00:56:27,040 --> 00:56:28,640 Speaker 3: if the zips happened to come up in the money 1159 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:31,960 Speaker 3: like Robin, but Buffalo should not be double digits against 1160 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:32,759 Speaker 3: anybody on the road. 1161 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 2: All right, before we get out of here, let's go 1162 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 2: free it out. 1163 00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:39,680 Speaker 3: Let's make it a quick three and out. 1164 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:43,400 Speaker 2: All right, first out here, we got Friday night lights 1165 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:46,880 Speaker 2: that chair, gentlemen, clear eyes, full hearts. 1166 00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 3: Let's go play some football. 1167 00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 2: If four games, none of them a really great Memphis 1168 00:56:55,280 --> 00:56:57,560 Speaker 2: two and a half, floid favorites now at you, yes, 1169 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:00,800 Speaker 2: trade wreckxsit's Gabriel went down and Keen took over. You 1170 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:04,880 Speaker 2: have Washington Arizona Pack twelve after dark. Arizona's lost eighteen 1171 00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:08,200 Speaker 2: to a row. Now, since that losing streak started two 1172 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,799 Speaker 2: years ago where they were flour and one, they were 1173 00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:14,080 Speaker 2: top to PAC twelve against Washington leading at the half. 1174 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:15,839 Speaker 2: Out of that out of the second half, they haven't 1175 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,560 Speaker 2: one of games. Since you see these two games, What. 1176 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:22,240 Speaker 3: Do you think colil Tate's doing these days? So you know, 1177 00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:24,480 Speaker 3: I mean with Middle Tennessee State and Connecticut. I mean 1178 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:28,080 Speaker 3: Middle Tennessee got extremely lucky against Marshall. But are you 1179 00:57:28,160 --> 00:57:30,720 Speaker 3: going to go in back Connecticut here at home? You 1180 00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 3: know that's that's sort of a dicey role. Now, I 1181 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:37,320 Speaker 3: will probably play Memphis Central Florida on the over. It's 1182 00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 3: something I projected sixty one. But both teams are bottom 1183 00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:43,080 Speaker 3: of the barrel and college football for defensive finishing drives. 1184 00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:45,760 Speaker 3: Memphis is one of the most explosive passing teams in 1185 00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 3: the nation. I think Mikey Keane and the offense for 1186 00:57:48,720 --> 00:57:51,160 Speaker 3: UCF is still trying to figure things out. But Memphis 1187 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:53,680 Speaker 3: is no world beater on defense, especially when it comes 1188 00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:57,800 Speaker 3: to scoring opportunities. So I certainly like the over in 1189 00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:01,360 Speaker 3: that game Washington Zona. That numbers should be less than 1190 00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:04,720 Speaker 3: fourteen eighteen is It's just like can you swallow it? 1191 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,400 Speaker 3: With this washing? The Washington offense is getting better week 1192 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 3: by week. I was a little surprised about they looked 1193 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,640 Speaker 3: competent compared to where they were against Michigan like in 1194 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 3: week two. The Washington offense looks much better now with 1195 00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 3: Dylan Morris and all that around him. But you know, 1196 00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:23,360 Speaker 3: if you think that you can handle it, Arizona at 1197 00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 3: eighteen is much too high to two key numbers there. 1198 00:58:25,880 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 3: I think it's crossed. 1199 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:29,800 Speaker 2: All right, let's move on to second down here, Let's 1200 00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:33,120 Speaker 2: first talk our favorite overdog for those maybe that's our 1201 00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 2: favorite favorite. 1202 00:58:34,320 --> 00:58:36,840 Speaker 3: It's called the overdog parlay easy. 1203 00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 2: One for me? Here? What month is it? It's brocked over? 1204 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 2: Maybe Iowa State minus seven? This voodoo party ends for 1205 00:58:44,600 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 2: Oklahoma State. Iowa State gets it done here in October. 1206 00:58:48,880 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 2: Favorite overdog for you? 1207 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:52,080 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Cincinnati. I think people are just 1208 00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:54,640 Speaker 3: trying to get too smart here. I think the Navy's 1209 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:56,960 Speaker 3: defense is horrible. It's got awful. 1210 00:58:57,000 --> 00:58:59,600 Speaker 2: I'mb on Navy. I'm petrified, But in my in fairness, 1211 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:01,880 Speaker 2: it's just an audit play for me, if anyone out 1212 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 2: there is fine, I put it in the app every time. 1213 00:59:04,080 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 2: I would not play if I was just looking at 1214 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:07,640 Speaker 2: this game and Cincinnati wants to run it up to 1215 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:09,440 Speaker 2: So it's a super small play for me. But I've 1216 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 2: done it for ten years any service, it's like sixty 1217 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,160 Speaker 2: five percent. This could easily be one of the times 1218 00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:16,240 Speaker 2: where they don't cover. It's Stiffy's trying to run it 1219 00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:18,760 Speaker 2: up to. Yeah, so I don't necessarily disagree with you, 1220 00:59:18,880 --> 00:59:19,200 Speaker 2: but the. 1221 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 3: Numbers should not the numbers should not be this high. 1222 00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:24,240 Speaker 3: But I mean, just watch a Cincinnati game, especially in 1223 00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:28,120 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter, to see that Fickle is sending He's 1224 00:59:28,160 --> 00:59:31,200 Speaker 3: on an island like sending signals. Just for somebody like 1225 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:33,120 Speaker 3: a college role playoff committee to fly by in a 1226 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:35,240 Speaker 3: plane and see that, you know, see me, notice me, 1227 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:38,480 Speaker 3: Please see these scores like fifty burgers every week, So 1228 00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 3: Cincinnati blindly until it doesn't. 1229 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:49,440 Speaker 2: Happen under underdog mouneyline parlay, turning good weekends into great weekends. 1230 00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 3: It's time for the money line parlay. 1231 00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go you should have hate yours last night, 1232 00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:58,440 Speaker 2: but last week by it with you NL. A quarterback 1233 00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:00,240 Speaker 2: goes to get hurt. They lose the last second. But 1234 01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:05,360 Speaker 2: I woulda go with Army the troops. I think that 1235 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 2: bake Forest run defense gets exploited here. The Army defense 1236 01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:09,960 Speaker 2: shows up, wakes run. 1237 01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 3: Ends, am I gets understand that. 1238 01:00:15,600 --> 01:00:17,000 Speaker 2: Oh shit, I can't hear you. 1239 01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, So my underdog money line is I'm gonna go 1240 01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:23,920 Speaker 3: with Oregon State. With the Beavers, could be a ton 1241 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:26,640 Speaker 3: of pressure here with them possibly taking over the North. 1242 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:28,880 Speaker 3: But like we said, Utah just comes off this huge 1243 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:32,000 Speaker 3: emotional week, big win against Arizona State, a tiebreaker that 1244 01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:34,240 Speaker 3: they need in the South. But it's also a youth 1245 01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 3: team that struggles in the first half to wake up. 1246 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:39,280 Speaker 3: They don't score many points in the first half. Oregon 1247 01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:42,160 Speaker 3: State leads the nation and one of the best rushing 1248 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:46,720 Speaker 3: attacks and third and finishing offensive finishing drives. They're gonna 1249 01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:48,640 Speaker 3: be able to sustain drives that They're gonna have drives 1250 01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,840 Speaker 3: to go over ten yards. They pride themselves on time 1251 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:53,720 Speaker 3: of possession. Utah is not gonna have any chances to 1252 01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:56,000 Speaker 3: score here, and if organ State can build a lead 1253 01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:57,920 Speaker 3: in the first half, it's gonna be Curtains and Cravallis 1254 01:00:59,320 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 3: agree there. 1255 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 2: Before we get out of here, third down. Our favorite 1256 01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:03,840 Speaker 2: bet of the weekend. I'll let you start where you go. 1257 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:06,880 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with UCLA Bruins. Chip Kelly is going 1258 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:10,720 Speaker 3: to beat his former school Organ. This really comes down 1259 01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:12,920 Speaker 3: to two teams that want to establish the run. The 1260 01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:15,520 Speaker 3: problem is is UCLA just does it a whole bunch better. 1261 01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:17,760 Speaker 3: Not only they have a two headed back system with 1262 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:20,800 Speaker 3: Britton Brown and Zach Charbonnay, who are just creating more 1263 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 3: mistackles and our yards after contact, they have Dorian Tops 1264 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 3: and Robinson, who is mobile if they get into passing downs. 1265 01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 3: The problem is is Organ is just not doing anything defensively. 1266 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:32,320 Speaker 3: They're outside the top one hundred and havoc. They're outside 1267 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 3: the top one hundred pass rush. So even if you 1268 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:36,640 Speaker 3: get Dorian Tops and Robinson in a passing down, you're 1269 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 3: not gonna be able to pressure him into mistakes. This 1270 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 3: is a UCLA offense that used nine different formations against 1271 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 3: LSU to get the victory. They're very good at disguising 1272 01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:47,560 Speaker 3: what they want to do, and Organ's just not going 1273 01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:49,479 Speaker 3: to be able to react, and they're definitely not gonna 1274 01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:51,560 Speaker 3: be able to score enough with Anthony Brown at quarterback 1275 01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 3: to keep up with the Ucla Bruins. 1276 01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:56,400 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be a podcast first should end well. 1277 01:01:56,680 --> 01:01:59,480 Speaker 2: My favorite bet also is UCLI. Let's make it a consensus. 1278 01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:03,360 Speaker 2: Send it early in the podcast. I think that Ucla 1279 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:07,520 Speaker 2: their run defense has been great. Their secondary little suspect. 1280 01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:10,600 Speaker 2: I don't think Anthony Brown and these Oregon receivers can 1281 01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 2: take advantage the other side of the ball. You can 1282 01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 2: run on this Oregon team, and I think UCLA can 1283 01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:19,800 Speaker 2: take advantage. Give me the Bruins. Make it clean sweep 1284 01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 2: for best bets. All right, thanks Colin for joining me, 1285 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:25,920 Speaker 2: Thanks everyone for listening, and thanks for putting up with 1286 01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:28,800 Speaker 2: my voice.
