Is it 34 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 3: time to look ahead or look away? 35 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 2: All right? 36 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 1: My request people were saying, you know you used to 37 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: put out your favorite situational spots a piece out there, 38 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: so I got a couple dims, so I will have 39 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: that out there this week. Be seven of them, seven 40 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: of my favorite spots. This is one of them. We'll 41 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: start with Penn State traveling to Maryland Cdcason football. 42 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 2: That's what Maryland does. 43 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: Three thirty Eastern kickoff. Penn State is a ten point 44 00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: favorite over under fifty five and a half. So MYNUS 45 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 1: thoughts on this awful spot for Penn State. I gotta 46 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: give them credit. They show up last week, they get 47 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,120 Speaker 1: off off the mat After that Illinois nine ever time 48 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: lost their coach didn't eve know who they were playing 49 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: that week, but they got off with them. They put 50 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: up a fight against Ohio State, they lose, They dropped 51 00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: the five to three. Now they travel to college for 52 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: their second straight road game against a five to three 53 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: Maryland team with Michigan, and they have Michigan on deck. 54 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,799 Speaker 1: It's just hard for me to envision Penn State, which 55 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 1: had so many bigger hopes for the season, being motivated 56 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,959 Speaker 1: for this game. There's a huge chance they come out flat, 57 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: just like we saw last year. Last year, Penn State 58 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: lost to Ohio State to drop to zero to two, 59 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: pretty much entered their college fall playoff hopes. The next week, 60 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: they played Maryland, this time at home. They're down thirty 61 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: five to seven in the third quarter, came out completely flat. 62 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: So I think this number is too high and tattoo high, 63 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: just on the surface. I hate backing Maryland home. But 64 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: here we go again, this spot throwing the spot. I'm 65 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: back in the turps plus ten. You know, they lost 66 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 1: de missive receiver, but I'm a little less worried about 67 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: their receiver situation based on what I've seen in the 68 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: past couple weeks and Tealo has looked fantastic for most 69 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 1: of this season. Outside of that Iowa game, Penn State's 70 00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: offense still has issues that can't run the ball. The 71 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: offensive line is bad. Clifford, I'm sure we'll move the 72 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: ball here, but there's a state comes out really flat 73 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: and I think Maryland kids score enough to wouldn't shock 74 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: me if they were a positioned to pull off this 75 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: out right, So give me the terps. Do you agree here? 76 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 2: Yeah? 77 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 4: I absolutely agree, and I think you know you and 78 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 4: I have talked about this before. You are a reflection 79 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 4: of your head coach, and when you have someone like 80 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 4: James Franklin, the losses can pile up pretty fast. Look 81 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,919 Speaker 4: at the streaks they were on last year. What lost 82 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 4: five straight? 83 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 2: One? Four straight? 84 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 4: And you know so, I mean when we break down 85 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 4: the number, it's something I project eight and a half. 86 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 4: So there is value on the Maryland number as we 87 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 4: record a ten a total of fifty two, A little 88 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 4: bit of value on some under here. And as a 89 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 4: person that has like over five and a half as 90 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 4: one of my biggest preseason bets on Maryland's win total, 91 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 4: I'd love an upset here before the Michigan game, and 92 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 4: then I'm eventually probably gonna have to have a buyout 93 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 4: spot against Rutgers on that Terps win total over. But 94 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 4: you know, four straight games against the spread losses from 95 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 4: Maryland they won, but they didn't cover. Against Indiana, they 96 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 4: they lost three scored. Yeah, they lost three straight before that. 97 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 4: I think what people need to realize that losing streak 98 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 4: included a net minus ten and turnover seven of them 99 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 4: to Iowa. Of course, they're great in gaining five hundred 100 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 4: yards against Indiana, but they're bad in letting the Hoosiers 101 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 4: offense put up four hundred and fifty yards, which is 102 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 4: like a theme every week. Penn State rush just for 103 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 4: thirty three yards against Ohio State. 104 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 2: They're in that game. They I mean, they've completely. 105 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 4: Given up on running one hundred and twenty second rushing success. Right, 106 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 4: But let's go to coach Franklin who's quickly on his 107 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 4: way to USC James Franklin and the presser this week, 108 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 4: our RPO game will become more explosive when people respect 109 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 4: the run. This week, we're going to make people respect 110 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 4: the run. That's pretty interesting on those comments considering the 111 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 4: total keeps going up, right, I mean, if you're committed 112 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 4: to running the ball, I don't know why that total 113 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 4: keeps going up. So Maryland's outside the top one hundred 114 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 4: and coverage, they're outside the top ninety against the explosive pass. 115 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 4: But Clifford, this is something I didn't realize either. Clifford's 116 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 4: forty two yard pass against Illinois. He had one pass 117 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 4: for forty two yards. That's the longest game from scrimmage 118 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 4: over the last three games. I can't they have no explosiveness, 119 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 4: so the pass game is getting dunk. Yeah, I'm looking at. 120 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 1: The under here. 121 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 4: I'm with you on Maryland. Penn State's defense limited the 122 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 4: Buckeyes a three hundred and five passing yards. So Maryland, 123 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 4: it's not like Maryland is gonna line up and run 124 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 4: the ball or you know, get it down the field fast. 125 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 4: But can the Nindian Lions maintain this level of defense? 126 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 4: I mean, I mean, look at this. They've been the 127 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 4: MVP against Indiana, three point win against Iowa head and 128 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 4: endo the by nine over times against Illinois then Ohio State. 129 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 4: I mean, they're the MVP every single game. Can you 130 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 4: keep up this level play? I'm with you on Maryland. 131 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 4: I'm looking at the under two. 132 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: Moving on to our second spot here, let's look at 133 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: Let's move to the Big twelve and take a look 134 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:53,600 Speaker 1: at Baylor, who is a seven point favorite traveling to TCU. 135 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: Baylor last week come back win over Texas. Again, they 136 00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: try to believe twenty one to ten in the second half. 137 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 1: Next week they have Oklahoma in a massive game with 138 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: Big twelve title implications. Natural Man called FOOTBA playoff implications 139 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: as well. Talk about a sandwich sandwiches, sandwiches, sandwiches, sandwiches 140 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: come back to beat Texas. You have Oklahoma on deck. 141 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,239 Speaker 1: Now you have you know, three and five TCU. TCU 142 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: obviously been one of the most disappointing teams in the country. 143 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: As a result, you know, they fire Gary Patterson, they 144 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: move on from him. The question is is this line 145 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: too high? Does the team rally here? I'm gonna lean 146 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 1: on yes. Now, if they lose this game and get 147 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: blown out there, they're dead team. I will not touch them. 148 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: I would only fade them. But this is you know, 149 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: you saw have a chance to go ball. You got 150 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: pretty much gonna win this game. Everything's been disappointing this year. 151 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: Now you have a new regime and and you're playing 152 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: your in state rival at home, and they're a top 153 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: twenty team you can ruin their season. It's hard not 154 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: to get up for that. So I expect TCU to 155 00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 1: get up for this. We don't know who's going to 156 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: be a quarterback. We don't know if Zach Evans's play, 157 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: but the running back room is loaded. The defense has 158 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: been so poor that it's just hard for me to 159 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 1: envision that they're not gonna be any better. If I 160 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: don't use any priors for TCU, who has always been 161 00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: a really good eend. They have a ton of talent 162 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: of NFL players on this defense. I would not even 163 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: touch TCU with a ten football, but I expect this 164 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: defense to lead. Look if they're getting up six point 165 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: nine yards per play, that's there's only eight teams in 166 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: the country that are allowing six point nine yards or more. 167 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: But I expect some improvement on the TCU defensive side. 168 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: It's a really bad spot for Baylor. I need the seven, 169 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: and there's a seven out there would not go any lower. 170 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: I'm hesitantly gonna buy low on TCU and play this 171 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: spot with a new staff too. And Gary Patterson was 172 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 1: in the building this week, like helping them prepare. But 173 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: the new staff also look, you can out a couple 174 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: of new wrinkles, a couple of new looks that failers 175 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: are prepared for. That element of surprise could work in 176 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: their favor. So I do think the line has a 177 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: bit inflated. If I'm assuming that TC is eventually gonna 178 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 1: do dun, it's gonna get a little better. Not fair. 179 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 1: The healthiest defense has been all year, but even still 180 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: with a plethora of key injuries, give me the horn 181 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 1: frogs here. It's scary, but I think that's the side. 182 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I agree, Baylor minus three is a 183 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 4: projection total of fifty eight, so that I'm not going 184 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 4: to pay attention to the overall total of the game 185 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 4: because the steam on this is just wailed on the five. 186 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 4: It's got it up to seven at some shops and stuck. 187 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 4: I'm in the same boat as you are. When's it 188 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 4: gonna stop steaming? 189 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: Right? 190 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 4: Because every time it's gone from six and a half 191 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 4: to seven, it gets whacked with sharp money, comes back 192 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 4: down to six and a half, and then we're back 193 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 4: at seven again. So are we going to get above 194 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,599 Speaker 4: a touchdown here? And of course the elephant in the 195 00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 4: room is the firing of Gary Patterson. You're right, he 196 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 4: showed up to the offices, he went over the Baylor 197 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 4: game planned with his assistants. 198 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 2: The TCUA D. 199 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 4: Jremiah de Notati said that he showed great class and 200 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 4: that's just always been the case with Patterson. So the 201 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 4: question is do the players, specifically the defense, do they 202 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 4: play their best game of the season under interim Jerry Kill? 203 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 4: Which please stay in good health, Jerry Kill. There's been 204 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 4: social media activity this week that's important, Gary Patterson encouraging 205 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 4: Zach Evans about you know who he is as a person. 206 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 4: Patterson's wife calling on the players to stick together and 207 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 4: fight on for TCU. There's a lot of support for 208 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 4: Gary Patterson on social media through the TCU players. But 209 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 4: their bottom ten and everything in defensive statistically, it's really 210 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 4: tough to say, well, now they flip a switch and 211 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 4: all of a sudden they could play some defense. Because 212 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 4: they allowed Kansas State to triple the national average in 213 00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:25,239 Speaker 4: explosive plays. They allowed West Virginia's offense to be explosive 214 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 4: and gain twenty percent more in national average and available yards. 215 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 4: I mean getting West Virginia to look that way, you know, 216 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 4: there's nothing in the numbers. It suggests to me the 217 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 4: Baylor and quarterback Jerry Bihannon and you know running back 218 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 4: Abram Smith are. 219 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: Not going to just run wild here. 220 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 4: So the question is will TCU be able to keep up? 221 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 4: I think the only thing that I can lock down 222 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 4: that I am playing on this game is that Baylor 223 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 4: is twelve in the College Football Playoff rankings. They may 224 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 4: be looking for style points. Baylor has scored at least 225 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 4: thirty one points in every single win this year. Their 226 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 4: team total is thirty two in this game, so I'm 227 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 4: going to bank the TCU doesn't have much improvement on defense. 228 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 4: I don't know if they can keep up on offense. 229 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 4: But I am playing Baylor over thirty two team total points. 230 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: I will be the one in fear with a TCU ticket. 231 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 2: Wait, you've got to wait and see if that seven 232 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 2: and a half comes right. 233 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's I'm I'm taking seven, and if 234 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: I can get seven and a half, I'll take a 235 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: little bit more. All right, Let's move on to another 236 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 1: spot here, another one that I'm betting. It's one of 237 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: my favorite cards of the year, so we'll see how 238 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: that works out. Ole Miss hosting Liberty in the Hugh 239 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: Freeze Bowl. 240 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 2: You don't cuss, you don't drink, so what are your vices? 241 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 1: I have been known to chew a bit of tobacco 242 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: when I get a little tired or watching field. Ole Miss, 243 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 1: depending on the book, nine and a half ten point 244 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: favorite over Liberty. This to me is a horrible spot 245 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: for ole Miss for multiple reasons. We faded them last 246 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: week with Auburn bow next season in full effect because 247 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: of their grueling October. Right, they had they go Alabama 248 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: to start it, you know, on the road, and then 249 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: LSU and then Tennessee in Arkansas, and then a five 250 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: sec games in five weekends, home away, home away, home 251 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: away in the month of October. Well, there's still no break. 252 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: They come home after getting beat up in that Auburn 253 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 1: game and play Liberty this Saturday. Liberty meanwhile, it was 254 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: put off of a win against U. Mass. They basically 255 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: had a bye week from an injury and freshness perspective. 256 00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: Huge edges for Liberty and their quarterback. By the way, 257 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: this is a matchup of two quarterbacks who could be 258 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,079 Speaker 1: the first two quarterbacks taking the NFL draft. Malique Wills, 259 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago was dealing with an injury. 260 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: He's now healthy. Had a couple of bad games with 261 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,320 Speaker 1: some picks, but he's been much clearer with the ball 262 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: in the past few games and looks healthier. One of 263 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: the most dynamic running quarterbacks in the country as well. 264 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: So look, Liberty should be able to do. The ball 265 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: gets all Miss. It's a poverty defense. We know that. 266 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: And on the other side of the ball, this Ole 267 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: Miss offense, which look Lane Kiffin with Matt corral and 268 00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: these weapons, one of the best offenses in the country. 269 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: The problem is it's a crippled Matt Corrale. Their top 270 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: three receivers could be out there, starting tight end might 271 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,320 Speaker 1: be out, and both of their top guards are out. 272 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 1: So I mean last week they're throwing a walk on 273 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: tight end and a walk on wide receiver. This is 274 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 1: not the same Ole Miss offense that you remember from 275 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: earlier in the year. On top of that, Link Kevin 276 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: came out said midweek, I don't think that you know 277 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: as of now, all three top receivers wouldn't play and 278 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: the tight end probably wouldn't play. And it kind of 279 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: makes sense like you're playing Liberty at home. This is 280 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:28,959 Speaker 1: the week you need to rest for the rest of 281 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: the year, so I think that they'll probably air on 282 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: the side of caution. Matt Carrel's beat up too, so 283 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 1: I think ten. There's too many here with liberty who 284 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: should score against, especially with a very beat up, undermanned 285 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:47,359 Speaker 1: ole miss offense. Give me a flames Liberty, Liberty, Liberty. 286 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:48,839 Speaker 2: I love it. I'm with you. I took nine and 287 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,559 Speaker 2: a half. I'm not worried that there's a ten out there. 288 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 2: You know that. 289 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. 290 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 4: Maybe I'll buy it again. Begin there's going to be 291 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 4: a full preview. I was the one that drew this 292 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 4: game for the right up this week. There's going to 293 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:02,719 Speaker 4: be a lot of Bible verses out there. So if 294 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 4: you're into Hugh Freeze and preaching the Bible, I got 295 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 4: some Isaiah in there. I got some fire and brimstone. 296 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:09,679 Speaker 4: I got all kinds of good stuff. And if you've 297 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 4: ever partied in Memphis before, you. 298 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 2: Know what I'm talking about. 299 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 4: But listen, you know, this is the biggest game I 300 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 4: feel like of Hugh Freeze's life. And that's saying something 301 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 4: for a guy that's beaten Alabama twice, right, a guy 302 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 4: that's been to a sugar Bowl. 303 00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 2: I mean Freeze's disgraceful exit from Ole Miss. 304 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 4: If you don't know, in case you've been living under 305 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 4: a rock, Houston Nutt filed a defamation smear lawsuit against 306 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 4: Old Miss, and Hugh Freese felt like, you know, Houston 307 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 4: Nutt did not enjoy the way that he his departure 308 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 4: was from Old Miss blamed Hugh Freeze and you know, 309 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 4: people at Old Miss for the way that he was 310 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 4: being profiled, and that turned up Freeze's school. Old Miss 311 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 4: supplied cell phone which you know, provided phone records that 312 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 4: was filled with things that most souls would burn on 313 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 4: a cross for Funny enough, now Freeze is the coach 314 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 4: of the Liberty Flames. 315 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 5: My father's vision for Liberty University was to found a 316 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 5: world class Christian university that would be for evangelical young 317 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 5: people what Notre Dame is for Catholic young people and 318 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 5: what Brigham Young is for Mormon young people. 319 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 2: So Liberty is like having major issues in havoc. Allowed. 320 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 4: We've talked about this before, like how did ULM win 321 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 4: this game? And there's a big drop off an offensive 322 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 4: line play. It's trickled down to Malik Willis's productivity. He 323 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 4: had six I and t's and back to back weeks 324 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 4: against Middle Tennessee against ULM. And the issue in this 325 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 4: game is is Ole Miss has no pass rush. The 326 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 4: Old Miss defense has been bad and success rate, but 327 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 4: they're worse when their opponents get into scoring position. Thirty 328 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 4: one red zone attempts against this Ole Miss defense, twenty 329 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 4: six touchdowns allowed. That's crazy, no field goals all six points. 330 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 4: So what's the status of Matt Crown the ankle you 331 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 4: mentioned it. I feel like this is going to be 332 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 4: a big Jerry and Eale Snoop Connor exclusively on the ground. 333 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 4: Luke Altmeier be in there a quarterback. Liberty's been excellent 334 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 4: against the pass, the thirty third in coverage and their 335 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 4: seventh in defensive passing success rate. So this isn't e 336 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 4: Connor game, which means it shouldn't be as high scoring 337 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 4: and as up tempo as you would think. I took 338 00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 4: Liberty nine and a half. I play it down to seven. 339 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 4: Rebels have Texas A and M next week. They have 340 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 4: egg Bowl in three weeks. They need people healthy. This 341 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 4: game means everything to Freeze. It doesn't mean shit to 342 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 4: Old Miss. It doesn't mean anything to Lane Kiffin and 343 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 4: Lane Kiffin talked about Freeze. He's like, listen, my brother 344 00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 4: worked for Hugh Freeze at ole Miss. Kiffin's words were, 345 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 4: this may be the best game day coach out there. 346 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,000 Speaker 4: From a pepper preparation standpoint, I'm I am impressed with 347 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 4: Hugh Freeze and how. 348 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 2: He gets his players to play. 349 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 4: That's enough for me. I'm taking Liberty. I'd play it 350 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 4: down to seven. 351 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would. I would lean under here too, ole Miss. 352 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: I'm totals are always unders, are always scary. But I 353 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 1: do agree that ole Miss is probably gonna go heavy 354 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,600 Speaker 1: dose to run here, and their offense is being priced 355 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 1: to the market as if it's close to full strike. 356 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 1: That it's nowhere close, right, But I agree, great spot 357 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: for Liberty. All right, moving on here to our final 358 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: game and look at lookway another game I will be 359 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 1: playing NC State traveling down to Florida State. NC State 360 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: is a two and a half point favorite here. All 361 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,880 Speaker 1: they have to do is beat three and five Florida 362 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: State and they will set up a showdown next week 363 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:16,000 Speaker 1: for the ACC Atlantic Division wake Forest, where the winner 364 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: will likely win the ACC Atlantic. Even if wake Forest loses, 365 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: that game will put the winner will be in first place. 366 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: Well it's easy, right, Well not so fast. I actually 367 00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: like Florida State. Here a lot digging into their numbers. 368 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 1: People remember Florida State for losing to Jacksonville State getting 369 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: trucked by wake Forest. Well, who is the quarterback in 370 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: those games, McKenzie Milton. You look at his numbers. Miserable, miserable. 371 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 1: They're all in three and Milton starts. They averaged eighteen 372 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 1: points per game. Here's what they played Louisville, Jacksonville State, 373 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: and wake Forest. Not a murderer's row of defenses. The 374 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: average eighteen points per game. Jordan Travis' five starts, Remember 375 00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: he started that opening game against Notre Dame where the 376 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 1: almost one in overtime, three and two. There are two 377 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: losses against Notre Dame and overtime against Clempson last week 378 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,679 Speaker 1: and again elet in the fourth quarter. They're averaging thirty 379 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: seven points per game in those five games, more than 380 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 1: double what they averaged with Milton. So you look at 381 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 1: the you strip out the McKenzie milton possessions, This offense 382 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: profiles really well, and I don't think the market is 383 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: adjusting for that. The young pieces on the Flarida State 384 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 1: defense are also improving. Just look at what they did 385 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 1: in the month of October. It was a really impressive 386 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: month for Florida State team I think is trending up. 387 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: I think they'll get up for this game. Fucked Florida 388 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: State getting to a ball I think is important this year. 389 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: Need this game. Sitting at three and five also can 390 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 1: ruin NC State season. NC State been't decimated by injuries 391 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: as well. They lost their starting their star guard and 392 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 1: they now lost four starters on the defensive end, the 393 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: latest being Isaiah Moore, their captain and star linebacker. They 394 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 1: already lost Peyton Wilson with their star linebacker earlier in 395 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 1: the year, so this defense is just not the same. 396 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: And yes, they went on the road and got a 397 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: win over LIEUI of them. Final score looks lops I 398 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: think trailed on that fourth quarter, they were out gained, 399 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: They give up a ton of yards. I think that Look, 400 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: this is the same NC State team that went down 401 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: to Miami and lost a couple of weeks ago. Awful 402 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: spot for them. I think Florida State is not being 403 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,199 Speaker 1: respected enough in the market for what they've done. What 404 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: has NC State really done this year? I mean they 405 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 1: wont at BC they beat Clempson in overtimes. I'm not 406 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: as impressed with NC State. Devin Learry's playing well, but 407 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 1: I think Florida State gets up for this game, catches 408 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 1: NC State looking ahead a little bit, and Jordan Travis 409 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: and this offense keep it rolling here. So I like 410 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:42,120 Speaker 1: Florida State. I'm waiting for the three minus one if 411 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,120 Speaker 1: I can get it, but I'll I'll play them if 412 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 1: not with the oles. 413 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 4: No, I agree with you on the market is screaming 414 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 4: Florida State. You know, I projected INC State minus six 415 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 4: total of fifty four and a half. N C State 416 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 4: can take control. You know, there's an overlooked a Wake here. 417 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 4: But what's interesting is that Wake UNC game that happens 418 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,920 Speaker 4: earlier in the day, the early kickoff. 419 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,120 Speaker 2: It's not a conference game, so even. 420 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 4: If Wake loses that game, it has no bearing on 421 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 4: the fact of this game, which means NC State has 422 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 4: to win this game, right or else they have a 423 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 4: two loss gap between them and Wake. So you know, 424 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 4: it's really interesting that that Wake UNC game is not 425 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 4: a conference game. You guys can go read about that. 426 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 4: But you know, give credit to the NC State offensive 427 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 4: line there. They're fifth and havoc allowed. Devin Leary is 428 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,479 Speaker 4: running a horizontal RPO outside zone that sets up vertical 429 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 4: shots downfield to Devin Carter and Mecha Mzy And you know, 430 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:40,320 Speaker 4: FSCU is fifth and defensive tackling. They have been fantastic 431 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 4: at tackling in space. I was a little shocked to 432 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 4: see that this Florida State team is fielding. They have 433 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 4: no problems tackling anybody one on one and this this 434 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 4: may come to Larry throwing against the FSU secondary seminals 435 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 4: are fifty eighth in coverage. But the Florida State offense 436 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 4: has been all explosive run. Not a lot of success 437 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 4: right in the past game one hundred and eleventh and 438 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 4: havoc allowed forty nine tackles by loss. But if you 439 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,400 Speaker 4: strip out some of that Mackenzie Milton stuff, you're right. 440 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,719 Speaker 4: I mean the twelve fumbles this season by the offense, 441 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 4: If you strip out some of that, it's actually. 442 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 2: Been pretty decent. 443 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 4: The NC State defense is top thirty against the explosive run, 444 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 4: and their twenty fourth in line yards and their twelfth 445 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 4: and tackling, which means they can control Florida States running 446 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 4: backs from breaking the line. Of scrimmage and getting to 447 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 4: those second level yards preventing the big gain. 448 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: So I agree, but they've also lost two linebackers. They've 449 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: also started defensive tackle now starting safety, so it's not 450 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: the same unit that it's been all year. 451 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:34,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with you one undred percent, which is 452 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 4: which is why I'm backing you with Florida State. I'm 453 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 4: also looking at the under. I don't see a lot 454 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 4: of big passes through the air. I don't see tempo 455 00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 4: in these numbers. So you know, I think the under 456 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:47,400 Speaker 4: and Florida State is the play. 457 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been waiting for that three, and yeah, I 458 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: think Florida State pulls off this upset before we get 459 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,240 Speaker 1: to our marqute matchups.

These teams don't 473 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: identify the players, but there was a presso release out, 474 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: so just keep that in mind.

I guess I'm checking the Kentucky fan, but 480 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: I played Kentucky twenty to one. This is the Cal 481 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: Revenge Tour year. I love all the pieces that they added. 482 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: He's a master putting them together and making them work 483 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,280 Speaker 1: come March. Really love the upside. I think they're one 484 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: of the five best teams in the country when it's 485 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 1: all said and done. Be able to get a better 486 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: number if they struggle early. But I wanted to get 487 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: some exposure who does work right off the bat, So 488 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 1: that's it. 489 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I've got a standard Arkansas thirty to one. 490 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 4: That's a number that I don't think is going to 491 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 4: get any better because they Muscleman has lined up a 492 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,120 Speaker 4: lot of teams that he predicts are going to win 493 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 4: their conference, the Northern Iowas of the world. So out 494 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 4: of conference Arkansas is going to play a stack schedule. 495 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 4: He did this last year where he played O r 496 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,400 Speaker 4: U early. He like, he loves to build his non 497 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,239 Speaker 4: conference around teams that he thinks are going to win 498 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 4: their conference. It makes it better for him for the 499 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 4: selection committee, and it makes his team stronger because he's 500 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 4: got about seven or eight transfers that are outstanding players. 501 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:36,920 Speaker 2: And I don't think that price is ever going to 502 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 2: get any better. 503 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 3: Woo Pig Sueye Colin's Talking Razorback Basketball. 504 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: Speaking of plus money, fifty to one, castes on it 505 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 1: was a high price for Colin talking Arkansas hoops on 506 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 1: the College Football podcasts. All right, good stuff there. We 507 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,479 Speaker 1: have a lot to get to. The marquee matchups. We 508 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: just we just did four broke them down well and 509 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: look at her. Look what we agreed. Let's disagree. 510 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 3: So it's another fabulous weekend of college football. Let's check 511 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 3: out the marquee matchups, we'll all end up bedding for 512 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 3: Week ten. 513 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: I know that we're going to disagree, at least on 514 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 1: this first game. Oregon seven point favorites at Washington over under, 515 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: sitting at fifty one. Here's the question when it comes 516 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: to this game with Washington. Yeah, I mean, people are 517 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: saying Jimmy Lake came out and was talking about Oregon's 518 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: not on academics at their academic level. It's gonna be 519 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 1: motivation for Oregon. If Oregon needs motivation for this game, 520 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 1: they're in trouble. But I know that. I mean, they're 521 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: in the college wall playoff discussion. This is Washington's. Washington 522 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: is would have been one of the most disappointing teams 523 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: in the nation this year. They're four and four. They 524 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: open with a loss at home to FCS Montana. Dylan 525 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,320 Speaker 1: Morris has not been great. Their offense has not been great, 526 00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: but they have I mean the you know, their start 527 00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: tight end was out for a while. All three of 528 00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: their top receivers is we oft. The start of the 529 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 1: year still has been great. Play calling has been great, 530 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 1: but there's just some at least some flashes in recent weeks. 531 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: Just their defense. One of the best secondaries in the country, 532 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 1: mctre McDuffie is and Kyler gordon O freature pros. And 533 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: you just can't throw on Washington at all. Part of 534 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,399 Speaker 1: that is by design as well. They have two excellent corners. 535 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: But the run defense has been really bad. Usually it's 536 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 1: like they let you run a little bit, but it's 537 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: been really bad this year. So that's that's the concern. 538 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,199 Speaker 1: Okay them, are they about a score on Oregon? And 539 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: then can they slow down Oregon's rushing attack? Anthony Brown 540 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: running the ball before I get to that. Yes, I 541 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,439 Speaker 1: think that the defense is going to step up here 542 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: and stop thrown. I'll tell you why in a second. 543 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 1: But this is also Washington's. Washington was waiting for this game. 544 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: You remember last year they won the division, but Oregon 545 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: went on to win the conference because they couldn't go 546 00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: and play because of COVID, and believe it or not, 547 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: you want to talk about like a new lease on life. 548 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: Washington's four and four. I didn't even realize this when 549 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 1: I put my bet in Washington's four and four. They 550 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: win this game. They're in first place in the division. 551 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: I have a bet on them to win the division. 552 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: They're four and four, They're gonna they could be in 553 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: the first place in Division ruin Oregon's College twall playoff hopes. 554 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 1: So there's no doubt they're gonna be up for this 555 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 1: game at night, primetime, Husky Stadium, raucus environment. Why do 556 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: I think that they can stop the run? That's what 557 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,200 Speaker 1: this comes down to, the guy. I assume that you're 558 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: gonna say they can't, which is fair, and then Oregon 559 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:27,679 Speaker 1: will be able to shred them. But Washington last week 560 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:32,399 Speaker 1: made basically took their entire defense and blew it up 561 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: and inserted an entirely new defense. So normally they have 562 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: three defensive linemen, they're dropping eight, and they've been bad 563 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: against the run. Well, here's what they did. They took 564 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,159 Speaker 1: Kyler Gordon as one of the best corners in the country. 565 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,360 Speaker 1: They moved him to slot. He's a really good tackler. 566 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 1: He can come down and defend the run. It's will 567 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: also be important playing the slot against Oregon likes to 568 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: throw to their backs quarterback likes to run, so they 569 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 1: moved him to slot. They kept McDuffie's also one of 570 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: the best corner in the country on the outside, and 571 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: they moved they have a freshman who's are also on 572 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: the outside now at corner, really good corner. They took 573 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 1: Bradley Hyles, the Oklahoma transfer nickel. They moved him from 574 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: slot to not a great tackler, to safety. They for 575 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: the first time all year, they started Dom Hampton to 576 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 1: twenty five bigger safety. Their safety has been all full 577 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 1: of tackling. Played him in the box. He didn't miss 578 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:29,399 Speaker 1: a tackle all last week. So then they also started 579 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: this kid Brunner, a legacy for Washington, freshman inside linebacker 580 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: making his first start. What did he do? Sixteen tackles, 581 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 1: one and a half sacks, one forced fumble, first player 582 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 1: and pack twelve ishuy to win Freshman of the week 583 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: end Defensive Player of the week. He was firing on 584 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: all cylinders. Also, they get Zion, their start out edge rusher, 585 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: who's gonna go in the first or second round. He 586 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: was up to twenty six naps. Apparently you're going to 587 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: have full full go this week for Washington. But the 588 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 1: main thing is they're playing with Gordon and now Hampton 589 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,639 Speaker 1: in the box. They're bigger. This linebacker looks like a stud. 590 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: They're not. They're bringing their safeties down. They're playing with 591 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: the better safeties in the box, and they're playing with 592 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:17,160 Speaker 1: their best run stuffing corner in the slot, and they're 593 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 1: not just dropping their stats. So I don't think that 594 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna do that this game. They're trusting their corners, 595 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: which Washington by scheme generally hasn't done in the past, 596 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 1: but they should here. You got to get better against 597 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,119 Speaker 1: the run, and you have elite corners. I think that 598 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,159 Speaker 1: they have three corners that are the all three of 599 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: the top highest rated corners in the PAC twelve. So 600 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: I loved some of the changes that Washington made. Now 601 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: it was against Stanford, it was one game from a 602 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: schematic perspective, and then the bodies that they're getting in 603 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: the box, when you compare them to the mistackle percentages 604 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 1: for the players that were in there, it's night and day. 605 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: And I think that that's gonna show in the field. 606 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:58,160 Speaker 1: I'm taking a leap of faith here. But I'm also 607 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: not high on this Oregon team. Not no, We're close 608 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 1: to his high as the market and people have to 609 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,520 Speaker 1: remember that this is the same organ team that lost 610 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: at Stanford. Washington just beat Stafford. This is the same 611 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: Morgan team that needed to come back in the fourth quarter, 612 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: to beat cal at home, to beat Fresno at home. 613 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: And who is Oregon beat by more than seven points 614 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: this year? Colorado, Arizona, and Stonybrook all at home. That's it. 615 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 1: Gimme Washington plus seven. I think they pull off the upset. 616 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 2: How do I even follow that up? 617 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 1: I mean, you can just rely on the numbers, though 618 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: the numbers stay that washed, it's gonna get flown. 619 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 4: Out first off, forty seven degrees, forty percent chance of rain, 620 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 4: twelve mile an hour across the grid, winds, so there's 621 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 4: some weather element coming in here too, So I don't 622 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 4: expect a real I didn't expect a lot of air 623 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 4: under the ball from either of these offenses. 624 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 2: Anyways. 625 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:56,040 Speaker 4: You know, it's funny you mentioned those comments that Jimmy 626 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 4: Lake made. It's fun because it's funny because my oldest 627 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 4: son is actually looking at Oregon to go to school there. 628 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 4: They're sixty fourth and computer science and they're fifty fifth 629 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 4: in mathematics. All right, that ain't so bad Jimmy Lake. 630 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 4: But you know, for him to say that we compete 631 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 4: with academic prowess like Notre Dame Stanford USC is quite funny. 632 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:16,400 Speaker 4: Chrystibal's response was, our every single ounce of our focus 633 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 4: is on the game, and I think it's important Stuck. 634 00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 4: I agree that the schematic changes were needed. 635 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: Maybe he Fundy was at Washington University in Saint Louis. 636 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: By the way, that's a really okay. Sorry, I love 637 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: you watch. 638 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 4: I agree with you that the schematic changes were needed 639 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 4: by Jimmy Lake on the defensive. 640 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 2: Side of the ball, and I had read that. 641 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 4: But my problem is is that Stanford still average fifty 642 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:41,280 Speaker 4: four percent success rate on running plays. That's ten percent 643 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 4: above national average on running plays last week, and they 644 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 4: were only stuff seven of twenty four runs, which is 645 00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 4: below national average and stuff rate. So the people they're 646 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 4: moving into the box is good at at stopping explosive runs, 647 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 4: but it's not exactly meeting at the line of scrimmage 648 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 4: or getting tackles for loss, which was a part of. 649 00:30:57,160 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 2: The handicap that I had. 650 00:30:58,080 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 4: Now, I'm not going to come on here and pretend 651 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 4: like this is Oregon's defense is going to be able 652 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 4: to stop what Washington is doing. I just don't like 653 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 4: Jimmy Lake. I don't like Jimmy Lake's comments. You know, 654 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 4: you look at some of these things under his reign, 655 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 4: the hiring of John Donovan, his offensive coordinator. He's just 656 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 4: an offensive dinosaur. I mean, he is not fit for 657 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 4: this job whatsoever. And on the other side you have 658 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 4: Joe morehead back on the sidelines, and that's just a 659 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 4: huge coaching mismatch when it comes from an offensive perspectives 660 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 4: have been fantastic on the ground with Anthony Brown now 661 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 4: Travis Dye greatest mustache and fall of college football. The 662 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 4: offense is ninth and havoc allowed. They're fourteenth in line 663 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 4: yards and like I said, they're gonna move the ball. 664 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,479 Speaker 4: Maybe they'll get met five to seven yards and standard downs, 665 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 4: but again Washingtons one hundred and eighteenth and stuff. Right, 666 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 4: like I said, that hasn't changed. So the Huskies are 667 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 4: you know, they used to be the standard in college 668 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 4: football and defensive havoc. Now they're outside the top one hundred. 669 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 4: So I think Oregon's gonna run all day, especially with 670 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 4: the weather. Big advantage in finishing drives. Oregon's team total 671 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 4: is certainly that was in my scope all week. If 672 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 4: you don't want to take the seven, if you can't 673 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 4: swallo the seven, because I agree with Stuck, Organ's not. 674 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 2: Like beating people like by oblivion, like huge amounts. 675 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 4: The question is can Washington keep up if you're going 676 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 4: to back that seven The offense is one hundred and 677 00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:16,240 Speaker 4: twenty second big play percentage. They're in bad weather and 678 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 4: that's one area where Oregon struggles. So if Washington can't 679 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 4: expose where Oregon struggles, which is defending big play, Organ's 680 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 4: outside the top one hundred tackling on defense, I said 681 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 4: it a billion times. They can't defend the rush. They're 682 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 4: good at pressure in the quarterback, they can't defend the rush. 683 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 4: So you know, if Washington can't expose that and get 684 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 4: to the second level, their scoring is going to be light. 685 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 4: I'm gonna bet the angle of Oregon over twenty eight 686 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 4: and a half. I know it's a slower tempo game, 687 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 4: and I know that there's not gonna be explosive plays 688 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 4: on the ground, But I don't think Crystal Ball is 689 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,720 Speaker 4: a very happy person right now, So I'm not expecting 690 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 4: anybody to be taking knees or Chris. 691 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: Ball doesn't know how to take knees. Yeah, I might 692 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: be able to get a back door if he's up 693 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 1: ten and doesn't know how to take knees by the 694 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: way Ken State take knees. 695 00:32:57,880 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 2: I've taken team total over twenty and a half. 696 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna conflict with your washing plus seven, but 697 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 4: the offense with John Donovan worries me. 698 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 1: That's all we shall see. I'm actually looking forward to 699 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: that one, especially because I have a we both have 700 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: the North right, yeah, to win the North, which I 701 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: was I wrote off and then I look at the 702 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: standing and I'm like, oh wait, all right, let's move 703 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: on to our second marquee game of the day here. 704 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 1: Texas A and M has looked better in recent weeks, 705 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: although the competition hasn't been great, hosting Auburn. Auburn fresh 706 00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,680 Speaker 1: off that win that we talked about earlier against Ole Miss, 707 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: but it was an under manned Ole Miss team. These 708 00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: two teams still have a shot to win the SEC West. 709 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: Texas A and M already beat Alabama. Auburn will get 710 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: to play Alabama later in the year, so there's still 711 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 1: a lot to be determined. Texas A and M four 712 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 1: and a half point favored here. This line is dipped 713 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,200 Speaker 1: out at three and a half at the four four 714 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: and a half over under forty nine is dipped down 715 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 1: a few points. I think I saw you put in 716 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: a bet on the app on the under twenty four 717 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: first half. I took up half the podcast. I'm at 718 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 1: Watchington Defense. I will let you talk this one. I 719 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: just need a plush here. So this just a gentle shove, 720 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: and I think I'm going to be joining you on 721 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 1: this under because that was my lean here. 722 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, Texa, A and M. 723 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 4: They're off a bye. They went heavy rush their past 724 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 4: two games. I know the level of competition isn't exactly Alabama, 725 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 4: but they've had twice as many running plays as they 726 00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 4: have passing games, and that's by design when you have 727 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 4: a Shane and Spiller. 728 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 2: They rank two of the top twenty FBS backs by 729 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 2: PFF in the category of elusiveness, which means these guys 730 00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 2: are about impossible to take down. You're lucky to have 731 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 2: one back in the top twenty. 732 00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:42,879 Speaker 4: A and M has two, and I mean we're talking 733 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 4: like Zamir White, like teams at Auburn his face like 734 00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 4: they have not seen a running back this great. 735 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,319 Speaker 2: A and M's got two of them. 736 00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 4: Jimbo mentioned this week he got he got to his 737 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,839 Speaker 4: presser off the bye week that my offense now has 738 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 4: an identity, and that is heavy run Calzada throwing into 739 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 4: a great Auburn second that's just going to be limited 740 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 4: to play action pass on third downs. 741 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 2: And that's after they've. 742 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,919 Speaker 4: Completely set up the run so that they can get 743 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 4: this secondary to bite. I don't think you're gonna get 744 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 4: Roger McCreery uh at the corner to bite. 745 00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 2: I don't think you're gonna get smoked Monday. 746 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 4: It's a very good secondary that yeah, and the four 747 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 4: two five defense, the defense that that Derek Mason is 748 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 4: calling is a really great secondary multiple schemes. I don't 749 00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 4: think Jimbo wants kaw Zada throwing into that unless it's 750 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 4: like third and eighteen, and even then it might be 751 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,840 Speaker 4: a swing pass over to a Shane or Spiller. So 752 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 4: I just I don't see a lot from kaal Zada 753 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 4: coming out of this game. And that's by design. 754 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 2: Are you kidding me? 755 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: Who gives this sh We havexach calls that up. 756 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:43,719 Speaker 2: So as far as bo Nix goes. 757 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 1: Bow Nicks season, then full effect. 758 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 4: He's got to look at this four two five defensive 759 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 4: Texas A and m uh. They're fourteenth against the explosive pass, 760 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 4: their sixth in defensive finishing drives text A and m's 761 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 4: top twenty in coverage, and Jimbo spoke of what makes 762 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 4: bo Nick special in these games, and he does this 763 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:05,240 Speaker 4: little scramble routine, his little spin snake move like delayed 764 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 4: bootleg type thing that he has coached. Mike Elko and 765 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:12,760 Speaker 4: Jimbo have coached the defense all week about the zones 766 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 4: on the field you have to cover when Bonix gets loose, 767 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,759 Speaker 4: And I thought that was, I mean, one of the 768 00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 4: most intelligent things I've heard about how to defend bo 769 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 4: Nicks when all shit breaks loose, because it does and 770 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 4: then Bonix does all this crazy stuff. 771 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:27,359 Speaker 2: And boom, you have a pass. Right. 772 00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 4: So that's why I like the under because Jimbo and 773 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 4: I Elko have a plan with four two five to 774 00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 4: disguise pre snap and to fill the zones where Bonix 775 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 4: likes to throw when he scrambles. Harson's expected to stick 776 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 4: to a balanced approach with Bigsby and Hunter right into 777 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 4: the Tamu front seven instead of testing the secondary. Brian 778 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,800 Speaker 4: Harrison's like hellbent on having a balanced attack. Jimbo wants 779 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,800 Speaker 4: to own time a possession stat It's like his maenttra 780 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 4: It's it's everything. If he had a Twitter banner Profilelet's 781 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,399 Speaker 4: say I want to own the clock. They're ninety six, 782 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 4: then tempo, we Auburn's fifth and defensive passing downs, explosiveness. 783 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,280 Speaker 4: They're gonna limit big plays against a Shane and Spiller. 784 00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 4: They're gonna limit what Kawazada does with the play action pass. 785 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 4: I took under first half forty eight and forty seven 786 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,000 Speaker 4: very key, so forty nine to fifteen and a half 787 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 4: on the board, those are good unders. Under forty nine 788 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:19,719 Speaker 4: is good. I lean Texas A and M here, but 789 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,600 Speaker 4: I have power rate at minus two, so I can't 790 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 4: get up into this dead number. This five and a 791 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,239 Speaker 4: half four. I think it's way too much. I'm not 792 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 4: really exactly looking to back Auburn. I will if I 793 00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 4: had to, but I think the under is just a 794 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 4: much better play A and M off A by give 795 00:37:32,040 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 4: me first half under Auburn coming off, you know, a 796 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 4: consecutive amount of games on the road in a big 797 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:38,439 Speaker 4: spot first half under. 798 00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 1: I agree with you, and I'm gonna be joining you. 799 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm down for the under. You know another reason, because 800 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: of punters from down under. Both of these teams have 801 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: excellent punters from Australia who can boom the ball. Let's 802 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 1: why I. 803 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 2: Start that less Miles started that turn and the Austin game. 804 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, the ant punters. So they both have a huge legs, 805 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 1: so I think they I agree. I think that both 806 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 1: these defenses have some advantages. And you're not gonna see 807 00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 1: too many explosive plays. You're gonna see each team be 808 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 1: pretty conservative early, lots of punts in the first half 809 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:20,600 Speaker 1: and big punts to flip field position. So uh, I 810 00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 1: agree with you there, And. 811 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 2: You know we're gonna get another team, another SEC team. 812 00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 2: Awful bye. 813 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 4: But these SEC teams that get the bye week and 814 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 4: come off of it, they look excellent. 815 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,480 Speaker 2: They get a week of rest, they look fantastic. 816 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:33,399 Speaker 1: All right, Let's move on to our third marquee game 817 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:37,320 Speaker 1: of the day. Michigan State, currently in the college football 818 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,839 Speaker 1: Playoff in the first four of the Collegewall Playoff, will 819 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: travel to Purdue and Purdue is a three point home 820 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 1: underdog over under fifty three. This could have been a 821 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:49,399 Speaker 1: look This could have been a look aheader look away 822 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:53,399 Speaker 1: segment just from a horrible situational spot. Michigan State now 823 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 1: and the Collegewable Playoff for rankings top four for the 824 00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: first time. They come back to beat their in state rival, 825 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:01,480 Speaker 1: and now they go to who we've known is knocked 826 00:39:01,480 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 1: off some big teams at home in their day. I 827 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:09,439 Speaker 1: love Purdue this weekend. Probably my favorite bet. Look bad 828 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: spot for Michigan State. Great Michigan State. I don't I 829 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 1: don't know where all this love is coming from. This 830 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 1: is a team that should have lost to Nebraska if 831 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 1: they don't get a punt return for a touchdown at 832 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 1: ten yards in the second half. It's a team that 833 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 1: should have lost to Indiana and Jack Tuttle if they 834 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: don't get a pick six. They went twenty to fifteen. 835 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 1: They were out gained by Indiana's poverty offense. This is 836 00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: a team that was down thirty to fourteen in the 837 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 1: second half to Michigan and gave up six hundred yards 838 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: of offense and we're out gameing almost two hundred yards. 839 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 1: Oh in Miami. They you know, they scoreboard looked slopsid. 840 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 1: I maman didn't want to tackle that day. Huge fourth quarter. 841 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 1: They had a twenty percent win probability at one point 842 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 1: in that game. They could have four losses easily right now. 843 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 1: So I think this Michigan State team is override in 844 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: the market. Keath Walker has been amazing, But you know, 845 00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,040 Speaker 1: Purdue top twenty five success right against the run, the 846 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 1: paper run. Their defense been really good, and I think 847 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 1: that they can pretty much sell out here and stop 848 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 1: Walker because I don't think Jalen Naylor is gonna play, 849 00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 1: which is huge. He's leads the team in receiving touchdowns 850 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: at their deep threat. He didn't play in the second 851 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,200 Speaker 1: half last week. He was in a cast. I think 852 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:19,399 Speaker 1: he's out and on the other side of the ball, 853 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,920 Speaker 1: Purdue can't run it. To throw that out. They're not 854 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: running it here. They can't run against anybody. What is Purdue? 855 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 1: It's a short passing attack, quick passing attack headlined by 856 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 1: David Bell. What does Michigan State do poorly? They can't 857 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: stop the pass and they know that their corners aren't 858 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,359 Speaker 1: creates and they play really soft coverage. Think they're giving 859 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:44,120 Speaker 1: up Their completion percentage allowed is ninetieth in the country. Well, 860 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,839 Speaker 1: what does Purdue do short passes? They can eat all 861 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 1: day down the field. Now, Michigan State's ben don't break 862 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 1: and Purdue his trouble in the red zone because they 863 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,959 Speaker 1: can't run the ball that could be a factor here. 864 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: But I'm getting three with the home team that I 865 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,799 Speaker 1: think has some advantages on both sides of the ball 866 00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 1: in a great spot. Give me the Boilers plus three. 867 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: Love it? 868 00:41:06,680 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I love it too. 869 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,560 Speaker 4: The price point is what scares the hell out of me, 870 00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 4: So I project this game at four. I got to 871 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,040 Speaker 4: get out of my head with these numbers sometimes and 872 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 4: step back. 873 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 2: We've talked about this before. 874 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 4: You just if you're a math guy in your chain 875 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 4: to a spreadsheet, sometimes you got to step back and 876 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 4: take the temperature of the room. And I feel like 877 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,359 Speaker 4: I need to do that with this Purdue team. Question 878 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 4: is can produce stop Kenneth Walker? The third produce forty 879 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 4: fourth and tackling. That means they can get them in space. 880 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 4: They're twenty six in defensive rushing success, right, they can 881 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 4: stop them at the line of scrimmage. Walker's rated. We 882 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 4: talked about elusive backs with Texas A and M having 883 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,320 Speaker 4: two of them. Walker is the number one rate of 884 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 4: most elusive back in all of PFF's ratings. You just 885 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 4: can't bring them down. So you know, the boiler Makers 886 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 4: are a much better pass rush unit with George Calafts 887 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:50,799 Speaker 4: they're tenth and Havoc, they're seventeenth in pass rush, so 888 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 4: Purdue is, you know, ninety third defensive stuff rate. So 889 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 4: I think Walker has a bigger chance of explosive plays 890 00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 4: than Peyton Thorn throwing to Jayden Reed and Jalen Naylor. 891 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 4: And I think that's where the love this fascination with me. 892 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,800 Speaker 1: I think Naylor's out. I think Nail's going to be out. 893 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:04,279 Speaker 2: If he's out. 894 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 4: I mean that kind of brings this point to a head, 895 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 4: which is people are falling in love with the Spartans 896 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 4: because they love the explosive play. Michigan had explosive plays 897 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 4: and explosive drives and they're not an explosive team whatsoever. 898 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,720 Speaker 4: Kate McNamara doubled the national average and explosive drives against 899 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:21,240 Speaker 4: the Spartans defense. They averaged ten and a half yards 900 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 4: per play in passing downs Michigan did. Aidan O'Connell to 901 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 4: David Bell is like it's a real threat. I mean, 902 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 4: if Cave McNamara is averaging ten and a half yards 903 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:31,719 Speaker 4: and passing downs, what's ad and O'Connell and David Bell 904 00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 4: going to do? And you know, when you fall in 905 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 4: love with these explosive teams. I keep referencing this piece 906 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 4: that I wrote in the summer. You can't base you're 907 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 4: against the spread stuff on explosion teams that are explosive 908 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 4: or can stop explosive plays or have an explosive offense. 909 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 4: It's just there's no against the spread value. I'm with 910 00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 4: you in this game. I don't know why. 911 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:52,279 Speaker 2: I just can't lay it on the three. 912 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 4: It's just some sort of like I gotta step out 913 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 4: of the spreadsheet and just accept the fact that Purdue 914 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 4: is winning this game. 915 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm high on Purdue and lower Missigan 916 00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 1: State then most. I mean I have this such as 917 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,759 Speaker 1: like a pick, so I think we'due out right here. 918 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,240 Speaker 1: Michigan State's luck is going to come to an end here. 919 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: And by the way, people saying in people are making 920 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,840 Speaker 1: the dumbest arguments for who deserves to be in the 921 00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:15,719 Speaker 1: top four. It's like, well, Alabama should be in there 922 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,160 Speaker 1: because they're the best team and they'd be fourteen point 923 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,759 Speaker 1: favorites over Sinty. Well they probably wouldn't, but all right, well, 924 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,840 Speaker 1: then why is Michigan State in there? They'd be fourteen 925 00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 1: point underdogs to Ohio State. Yeah, they gotta love theologic 926 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:29,080 Speaker 1: ar be consistent. All right, we're gonna putt the best team, 927 00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:31,319 Speaker 1: so who cares what happens. I only beef is with 928 00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: Sincy getting shafted. This is the year that you'd want 929 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,480 Speaker 1: a sinc the in and then Alabama's losses don't matter. 930 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 1: But anyway we'll catch the under eleven and a half 931 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:41,319 Speaker 1: win total happily at the end of the year. 932 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 2: All right. 933 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,800 Speaker 1: Moving on to the final Marque matchup of the weekend. 934 00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: Undefeated wake Forest two and a half point underdog in 935 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,040 Speaker 1: Chapel Hill against four and four North Carolina. Most people 936 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: thought those records that be flipped coming into the Sam 937 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:58,160 Speaker 1: Hartman has been unbelievable. Wake Forest defense hasn't been that great. 938 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: They've had a couple of high wire skate facts against 939 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,319 Speaker 1: Syracuse is the one that comes to mind about a 940 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,400 Speaker 1: month ago. But they're still eight now. They're to control 941 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:10,239 Speaker 1: of their own destiny. Maybe if they went out they 942 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,359 Speaker 1: get into the college foot well. I need a lot 943 00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,840 Speaker 1: of help there. But you've got to love Sam Hartmon. 944 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,520 Speaker 1: He's playing really well. Is this a good spot to buy? 945 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 1: You and c Low have been a really weird team 946 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 1: to figure out on a week to week basis been 947 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: very up and down. I'm sure they're going to be 948 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,799 Speaker 1: really up for this game, and they're only like two 949 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:30,760 Speaker 1: and a half at home. I mean this number before 950 00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 1: the season would have been a lot higher. But the 951 00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: wee because obviously exceeded expectations in North Carolina has been disappointing. 952 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 1: What do you see here? 953 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, this was a game. I was shocked. 954 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 4: I mean when I did the numbers on Sunday and 955 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:44,399 Speaker 4: it came out, I had this North Carolina minus five 956 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 4: and a half in the Action Network power ratings, I 957 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:48,840 Speaker 4: was just like, wait a minute, this can't be correct. 958 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 4: And I think sometime on Sunday night I noticed that 959 00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 4: SP plus makes this game North Carolina minus four. So 960 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 4: I mean, if you trust our two power rating systems, 961 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,359 Speaker 4: North Carolina is the play without even staring at it. 962 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 4: So you know, the total I make about seventy three. 963 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 4: That thing's up there in the. 964 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 1: Seventh seventy seven. 965 00:45:06,760 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 4: I mean it's going to be a Mac game, right, 966 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,799 Speaker 4: So I don't know that the market is screaming right now. 967 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:13,360 Speaker 2: UNC minus two and a half. 968 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 4: A lot of tickets coming in, but the bigger handle 969 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 4: is coming in on North Carolina. I think a lot 970 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 4: of sharp Money likes North Carolina because the question is 971 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 4: have they found their legs on offense. It's been a 972 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 4: one loss, one wins schedule since mid September. 973 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:28,359 Speaker 2: Win one, lose one, win one, lose one. But the 974 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 2: Heels are running the ball exceptionally well as of late 975 00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 2: sixty three percent success rate running in the loss against 976 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 2: Notre Dame. On the season, there's sixty one percent success 977 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 2: rate on the ground, averaging six point four yards per play. 978 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:42,480 Speaker 2: That is huge. 979 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 4: Numbers on the ground. That's an issue for wake Forest. 980 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 4: We that was the anticap with Army. Wake Forest can't 981 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,800 Speaker 4: defend the run one hundred and twentieth in the line yards. 982 00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 4: You know, there's a success rate through the air, against 983 00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,680 Speaker 4: the pass and against the rush is dreadful. I mean, 984 00:45:56,680 --> 00:45:58,399 Speaker 4: if they make the college football playoff, it's going. 985 00:45:58,320 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 2: To be gross. 986 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,440 Speaker 4: UNC can expose they're thirty fifth in offensive finishing drives. 987 00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 2: They can move the ball. 988 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 4: They could score six every time. Now what's not positive 989 00:46:07,560 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 4: is this UNC defense is holding Wake from scoring on 990 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,799 Speaker 4: every drive. UNC allowed forty four points to Notre Dame. 991 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 4: We've said enough about their offense. They allowed forty two 992 00:46:15,360 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 4: to Miami. The Tyler Van Dyke Special thirty five to 993 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 4: Florida State in recent games. So I mean UNC is 994 00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:24,359 Speaker 4: the play for the simple fact that a the power 995 00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:28,240 Speaker 4: rating indicates it, be the market value indicates it. See 996 00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 4: there's an element that North Carolina can run the ball 997 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,160 Speaker 4: control the clock. Now, I'm not saying Phil Longo is 998 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:35,800 Speaker 4: trying to like give up tempo and train clock. 999 00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:37,319 Speaker 2: I've never seen Phil Longo do that. 1000 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:40,040 Speaker 4: But if you're not laying UNC minus two and a half, 1001 00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 4: we're taking the money line. This could be the greatest 1002 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,600 Speaker 4: live trading game of the day, similar to Kenton Northern 1003 00:46:45,640 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 4: Illinois last night. I mean, you know the score is 1004 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 4: going to be up that high. It's a great live 1005 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:49,839 Speaker 4: trading game. 1006 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:51,840 Speaker 1: That's what I was gonna say. Whoever you like in 1007 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:53,000 Speaker 1: the side, or if you just want to trade it, 1008 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 1: just wait live. There's gonna be a four points, but 1009 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: should be a very entertaining game between two excellent quarterbacks. 1010 00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 1: That'll wrap up our marquee matchups of the weekend. Great 1011 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:07,600 Speaker 1: stuff there, Let's move on to the rundown. Let's bring 1012 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 1: in a couple other games here. Let's go back and forth. 1013 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:13,880 Speaker 1: I can bring up one, you can bring up one. 1014 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,400 Speaker 1: I'll start with one. I think you'll agree with on 1015 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: with Tennessee played some Tennessee plus one, like them to 1016 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: minus one after making some adjustments this week and for 1017 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:28,919 Speaker 1: the spot that actually make this tat over Tennessee minus three. Kentucky. Look, 1018 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,800 Speaker 1: they left Lexington undefeated in charge of their own destiny 1019 00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:35,240 Speaker 1: in the SEC and COSMO Playoff. They lost to Georgia. 1020 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 1: Then they go to Mississippi State, they lose that. They 1021 00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:39,759 Speaker 1: come back with two losses. Me while Tennessee's off a bye, 1022 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,759 Speaker 1: they're looking to avenge a loss from last year, an 1023 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:45,800 Speaker 1: embarrassing home loss to Kentucky. They got healthier, hookers healthier 1024 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 1: now and Kentucky is just beat up. I mean Chris Rodriguez, 1025 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:52,080 Speaker 1: who's the straw that starts to drink for their offense. 1026 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:54,719 Speaker 1: He's hurt. You have two couldn't even hold onto the 1027 00:47:54,760 --> 00:47:58,800 Speaker 1: ball last week. McCall there other defensive tackle still is 1028 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 1: not ready to come back. They already lost one of 1029 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: their other best defensive tackles for the season. They had 1030 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,720 Speaker 1: a linebacker a corner leave the game last week. They're 1031 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:09,360 Speaker 1: just really beat up across the board. For one of 1032 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,520 Speaker 1: their best offensive linemen left went to the locker room 1033 00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 1: Darren Rosenthal. It's just a beat up unit. Tennessee's much fresher, 1034 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:18,640 Speaker 1: much healthier because the defensive tackle in Truce. The Kentucky 1035 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,959 Speaker 1: run defense has been slipping. The pass defense isn't great. 1036 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 1: Hooker can take advantage of that. I think Tennessee pulls 1037 00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:26,319 Speaker 1: out a win here. 1038 00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:29,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, bowls out right in this game. 1039 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 4: I saw I missed the three, so I said, you know, 1040 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 4: I'm just gonna take money line early in the week. 1041 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:35,760 Speaker 4: I think they win this game. Injuries on the roster 1042 00:48:35,880 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 4: for Kentucky. This is sort of a revenge spot for 1043 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 4: some of the players on the Tennessee team, although I 1044 00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:42,759 Speaker 4: think the entire team is in the transfer portal. But 1045 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,600 Speaker 4: you know, the Wildcats want to run the game, want 1046 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:47,840 Speaker 4: to run the entire game and drank clock. But you know, 1047 00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 4: Hooker and josh Hipel's fastest offense in the nation. On 1048 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:54,680 Speaker 4: the field, the offensive line has gotten healthy. Kentucky's one 1049 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 4: hundred and twenty fourth in defensive passing success rate. Mississippi 1050 00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:00,480 Speaker 4: State took advantage of that best bet last week one. 1051 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:04,200 Speaker 4: You know, Tennessee had issues with protection, but Kentucky pass 1052 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 4: rush is just not there. Like you said, you know, 1053 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 4: no explosive plays, but opponents are moving the chains all 1054 00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 4: day against Kentucky's defense. That's a bad combination against a 1055 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 4: Tennessee team that excels in finishing drives. 1056 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 2: I'm with you, Bowls. I love these SEC teams off 1057 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:19,560 Speaker 2: of by Yeah, I. 1058 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,279 Speaker 1: Think Tennessee is still not being properly accounted for in 1059 00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:25,080 Speaker 1: the market with Hooker, some of their numbers are depressed 1060 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:27,799 Speaker 1: when they had Milton in there. Another game, I'm good. 1061 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,440 Speaker 1: I think I'm gonna end up playing this game. This 1062 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 1: is dicey, but I think I'm going to play Nebraska 1063 00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:36,360 Speaker 1: plus fifteen against Ohio State. Nebraska is a very odd team, 1064 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 1: but you cannot back them as a favorite. They still 1065 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 1: continue to make mistakes and turn it over and find 1066 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:44,400 Speaker 1: ways to lose games. But they are a very good underdog. 1067 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 1: They can they have great players on defense, they can 1068 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 1: move the ball on offense. They're three and o's against 1069 00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,080 Speaker 1: the spread as an underdog this year. Could have won 1070 00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,279 Speaker 1: all three games against three teams that are now in 1071 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,360 Speaker 1: the top eight of the College Wall playw two of 1072 00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:59,279 Speaker 1: them on the road, hung with Oklahoma and Norman till 1073 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:02,640 Speaker 1: the end. Would have beat Michigan State, should have beat 1074 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 1: Michigan give me fourteen and a half here for their 1075 00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:09,160 Speaker 1: super Bowl. This is their super Bowl. Now need to 1076 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:12,680 Speaker 1: win for BAWL eligibility can ruin Ohio State season. They've 1077 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 1: lost three straight. They could have won all three of 1078 00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,160 Speaker 1: those games, by the way, just what Nebraska does. But 1079 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:19,759 Speaker 1: over two touchdowns. I think that's like this is when 1080 00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 1: you play this Nebraska team. And what do we learned 1081 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 1: last week? Ohio State made the play calling change. We said, Okay, 1082 00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:27,760 Speaker 1: we haven't really been able to see if the defense 1083 00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 1: is not improved because they were playing cupcakes and they 1084 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 1: played Indiana's four string quarterback. Well, we saw last week 1085 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,239 Speaker 1: the past defense is still bad. Penn State was the 1086 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:39,279 Speaker 1: four hundreds, passing eleven of sixteen on third down. You 1087 00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:41,280 Speaker 1: could still move the ball in this Ohio State defense. 1088 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 1: I think this is a touch high. I need over 1089 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:45,880 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. But I think it's a good spot for Nebraska. 1090 00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:47,400 Speaker 1: And it's just an odd team. Don't never take them 1091 00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 1: as a favorite. Only back there as a dog and 1092 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:52,319 Speaker 1: maybe they do to not make mistakes. But I'm gonna 1093 00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 1: be playing Nebraska here. 1094 00:50:53,440 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 4: Nebraska six losses on the season by a combined thirty 1095 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 4: three points. That tells you the covering fourteen and. 1096 00:50:58,400 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 1: A half everyone by one possession. 1097 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:02,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, it tells you that the I mean, this shouldn't 1098 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 4: be an issue covering this kind of spread. And if 1099 00:51:05,520 --> 00:51:07,880 Speaker 4: you believe that Adrian Martinez gon to expose a defense 1100 00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,200 Speaker 4: for the Buckeyes at seventy third coverage and one hundred 1101 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 4: and eleventh and passing down success rate, Nebraska's going to 1102 00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:15,840 Speaker 4: move the ball when they get behind schedule. If you 1103 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 4: invest in Nebraska, you have to worry about the Buckeyes 1104 00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:21,280 Speaker 4: ranking of eighth and defensive havoc. 1105 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:23,040 Speaker 2: And that's where I get a little tentative stuck. 1106 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,400 Speaker 4: I mean, just taking the ball away from Martinez has 1107 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:26,439 Speaker 4: been too easy this year. 1108 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,400 Speaker 2: Four offensive turnovers last week against Purdue. 1109 00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 4: I'm not going to get in the way of the 1110 00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 4: Buckeye seam that's going to try to get in the 1111 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:34,399 Speaker 4: top four of the college ball playoff. But you're right, 1112 00:51:34,440 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 4: this is Scott Frost absolutely making an exit from Nebraska 1113 00:51:38,120 --> 00:51:40,440 Speaker 4: with a loss here. They already have six losses. Is 1114 00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 4: to put them at seven. No postseason, Nebraska is going 1115 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:47,000 Speaker 4: to play all out. I think possibly this might be 1116 00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,239 Speaker 4: a first half play for me on Nebraska, and maybe 1117 00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:51,280 Speaker 4: a money line play I agree with you that Nebraska 1118 00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 4: is a side and they've choked Layton games huge spread. 1119 00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:56,320 Speaker 2: You can't handicap. 1120 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:57,920 Speaker 4: Injuries and turnovers, and that has just been the hardest 1121 00:51:57,960 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 4: thing with Adrian Martinez all these years. 1122 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, but you also say, Hi, this a 1123 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,919 Speaker 1: noon kick for a state off the pen. You say 1124 00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 1: they want to get into the top four of the 1125 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 1: College I think they know that if they just went out, 1126 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: they're in. I mean, Michigan State's out of them and 1127 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:10,480 Speaker 1: they're going to play them, and if they win the 1128 00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 1: Big Ten, they're in. So I don't think Ohio State's 1129 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 1: worried about running it up. They're going to get or 1130 00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 1: to take a loss if Oregon in both and then 1131 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 1: when out they're both get to get in. I think. 1132 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:21,879 Speaker 1: So I don't think that that's not too worried about it. 1133 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:27,879 Speaker 1: All right, LSU Alabama here, who cares? No players left? 1134 00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:29,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I can't believe it saying about LSU Albama 1135 00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:31,360 Speaker 1: and Alabama's minus twenty and a half. I think it 1136 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 1: make it like twenty six. But I'm not betting LSU. 1137 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,360 Speaker 1: I leaned the under. Maybe I'll play the under here 1138 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 1: under sixty seven. I think it's a touch high. But 1139 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:41,400 Speaker 1: you know, Alabama's not explosive, but they're probably going to 1140 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:45,120 Speaker 1: score most drives just marching it down the field. What 1141 00:52:45,120 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 1: are you going to get from LSU? Though they don't 1142 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 1: they can't run it, so I mean, are they throwing 1143 00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 1: picks and just throwing it off the field. That's a 1144 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 1: scary part about the under I mean makes sense of 1145 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:52,919 Speaker 1: this game. 1146 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,440 Speaker 4: I got nothing here and I project BAMA minus twenty 1147 00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,719 Speaker 4: four and the injuries on the LSU defense and the 1148 00:52:57,719 --> 00:53:00,760 Speaker 4: possibility of Doug Neusmeyer getting more snaps from Max Johnson, 1149 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,719 Speaker 4: you know, is maybe what's beefing this lineup a little bit. 1150 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:06,000 Speaker 4: Or the fact that Saban just has an axe to 1151 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 4: guard against Coach O after the twenty nineteen season and 1152 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 4: the Joe Burrow perfection just wants to rub it in. 1153 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,720 Speaker 4: But you know, Doug Neusemeyer getting more snaps the freshman 1154 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,280 Speaker 4: is likely because they don't want him to transfer. 1155 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:19,200 Speaker 2: Now I'm not sure whose call that is, that's Coach 1156 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 2: O's call or what, But new Smeyer got some plays 1157 00:53:22,160 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 2: in last week. 1158 00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:24,920 Speaker 4: Now he's got a cannon for an arm, but he's wild, 1159 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,120 Speaker 4: like he'll try to throw it into windows. Brett Favre 1160 00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:30,200 Speaker 4: style that you know, it's just not there, so we'll see, 1161 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 4: you know what Alabama can do with that. But you know, 1162 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 4: Saban off the by focusing on two different areas of explosiveness. 1163 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:39,000 Speaker 4: The defense is fifth in line yards and. 1164 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:40,480 Speaker 2: That's good enough to stop the LC rush. 1165 00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 4: Defense that awakened against Florida kind of went dormant again. 1166 00:53:43,960 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 4: Saban mentioned that the deep ball is getting focused now. 1167 00:53:47,120 --> 00:53:50,200 Speaker 4: In practice, Bryce Young has been limited in deep passing. 1168 00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 4: I believe Stuckie calls him Captain check down. Some of 1169 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:56,600 Speaker 4: that is a pass blocking rate of sixtieth. If LSU 1170 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,400 Speaker 4: can get a pass rush off of a depleted defensive line, 1171 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,840 Speaker 4: you know Young will start to look downfield instead of 1172 00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:05,239 Speaker 4: checking down to Mechi or Williams. But Sabin made it 1173 00:54:05,280 --> 00:54:07,160 Speaker 4: a point in his press conference. It's time for us 1174 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 4: to start throwing downfield, and I want that to be 1175 00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:13,000 Speaker 4: a part an element of our offense. Bama's fourth and 1176 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:16,760 Speaker 4: offensive finishing drives LSU defensively outside the top one hundred. 1177 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:19,359 Speaker 4: That defense will let anybody score a touchdown. I don't 1178 00:54:19,360 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 4: think Saban has forgotten twenty nineteen. I know you would 1179 00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:25,279 Speaker 4: like to some kind of way extract something out of 1180 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 4: this pipe that's not there. 1181 00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:27,520 Speaker 1: It's not there. 1182 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 2: You all speculate and create things, and then you want 1183 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:34,719 Speaker 2: people to respond to it. Team total over first half over, 1184 00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:37,319 Speaker 2: especially with Sabin coming out and saying that the deep 1185 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,040 Speaker 2: pass needs to be a part of our repertoire and 1186 00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:40,160 Speaker 2: we need to start working on that. 1187 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:41,880 Speaker 1: Why did you push yourself? 1188 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,560 Speaker 4: I think who it is bad to be an LSU team. 1189 00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:46,319 Speaker 4: So give me some overs, give me some Bama team 1190 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 4: totals overs. 1191 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 1: An awful matchup. By the way, we've gotten you've already 1192 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 1: talked to Arkansas hoops. We haven't talked to Arkansas football 1193 00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:56,600 Speaker 1: off of a by five and a half point favorite 1194 00:54:56,640 --> 00:55:00,440 Speaker 1: at home against Leech and Will Rodgers, who was rolling 1195 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:04,600 Speaker 1: thirty eight or forty one against Kentucky. Anything on your 1196 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:08,280 Speaker 1: Hogs and mistake woo pig Sully. 1197 00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:10,319 Speaker 2: I haven't made a play yet. I mean, there's one 1198 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 2: thing that really bothers me about the razorbacks. You know 1199 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 2: they're coming off of bye. I projected minus eight in 1200 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:15,200 Speaker 2: this game. 1201 00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:17,359 Speaker 4: I should give value on what's a dead number right 1202 00:55:17,400 --> 00:55:20,400 Speaker 4: now in the market total of fifty two. The number 1203 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 4: on the board is higher than that. I really wanted 1204 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:25,879 Speaker 4: to get an over on this game. And the big 1205 00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 4: reason for that is that our star safety Jaalen Catalog 1206 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:30,240 Speaker 4: he's out. 1207 00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:31,200 Speaker 2: With his shoulder for the year. 1208 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, and that is a monster loss because Miles Slusher 1209 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:36,960 Speaker 4: is going to come in and step in. He is 1210 00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:40,239 Speaker 4: not near the vocal captain in the secondary of the 1211 00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:44,319 Speaker 4: catalan Is and that gives me pause against a Mississippi 1212 00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 4: State dink and dunk offense that Will Rogers just going 1213 00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:49,239 Speaker 4: to throw on all day. 1214 00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:49,680 Speaker 1: Now. 1215 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:52,239 Speaker 4: Barry Odom was given credit for the whole rush three 1216 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 4: drop eight. I think Leech has seen it enough. They 1217 00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:57,720 Speaker 4: know how to attack that. And the question is is 1218 00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:00,000 Speaker 4: Ridgeway and Trey Williams. 1219 00:55:59,880 --> 00:56:01,319 Speaker 1: With Kentucky and just shredded it. 1220 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:04,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, they shredded it and Ridgeway and Trey Williams trying 1221 00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 2: to get pressure. 1222 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 4: This is not last season where Bo Polini in the 1223 00:56:08,680 --> 00:56:11,279 Speaker 4: opening game, Bo Polini for LSU decided to stay in 1224 00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 4: man and allow the air raid to tear him apart. 1225 00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:17,880 Speaker 4: And then Arkansas ran this you know, rush three and 1226 00:56:18,360 --> 00:56:20,200 Speaker 4: just tore you know, Costello up. 1227 00:56:20,600 --> 00:56:21,240 Speaker 2: This is different. 1228 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 4: This Mississippi State offensive line is protecting Will Rogers really well. 1229 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:28,240 Speaker 4: That air raid is running to perfection. I'm a little 1230 00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 4: tentative without Jalen Catalan in that secondary against Mississippi State. 1231 00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:34,320 Speaker 4: If Arkansas is going to score, it's not going to 1232 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 4: be on the ground. I want the over coming off 1233 00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:39,200 Speaker 4: of a bye but Mississippi State isn't exactly explosive. But 1234 00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:41,880 Speaker 4: Jalen Catalan is in there. So you know, keep your 1235 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 4: eyes on the app. I'm either going to back Arkansas 1236 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:46,560 Speaker 4: or I'm going to back an over. Could be split 1237 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:48,040 Speaker 4: for staff, could be full game. I said, just keep 1238 00:56:48,040 --> 00:56:50,319 Speaker 4: your eyes over. But the Catalan thing really bothers me 1239 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:53,440 Speaker 4: when backing Arkansas because we saw this last year. Bumperpool 1240 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:55,520 Speaker 4: went out, Grant Morgan went out, and all of a sudden, 1241 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 4: every team put a fifty burger up on Arkansas. 1242 00:56:57,719 --> 00:56:58,960 Speaker 2: So it gives me a little pause. 1243 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 1: By the way, we have to talk about the Super Bowl, 1244 00:57:01,560 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: the best game on the board. 1245 00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:07,880 Speaker 3: We're talking minor nation out in the West Texans town 1246 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:08,840 Speaker 3: of l past So. 1247 00:57:10,320 --> 00:57:10,920 Speaker 2: Picks up. 1248 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,920 Speaker 1: Everyone's talking about LSU Alabama at night. Who cares? We 1249 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 1: have UTSA at utep Utip is an eleven point home 1250 00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:22,880 Speaker 1: dog over under sending fifty one to fifty two range. 1251 00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:25,360 Speaker 1: What do you got here for the game of the weekend. 1252 00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:27,560 Speaker 4: We have to pick one of our favorite children, right 1253 00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:32,600 Speaker 4: that me versus Pizza Party stuck. 1254 00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know. 1255 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 4: You and I have been celebrating the life of the 1256 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:40,920 Speaker 4: road Rudders since they became FBS members, and we have 1257 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:46,000 Speaker 4: nurtured UTEP from multiple winless seasons up into this juggernaut 1258 00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:47,800 Speaker 4: of a bull team that they've turned into it. Now 1259 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:50,920 Speaker 4: we have to divide and pick one. How pissed off 1260 00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 4: is UTSA after the college football playoffs? 1261 00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 2: No, we don't know. 1262 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:56,360 Speaker 4: You know, Trailer is a great coach. He got his 1263 00:57:56,480 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 4: contract renewed. It's gonna be pretty expensive for a POWERFI 1264 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:01,440 Speaker 4: program to come and pick him off as a head coach. 1265 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 4: UTSA has the same goal every game. They want to 1266 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:07,000 Speaker 4: run it down people's throat fifty eight percent rush rate, 1267 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:09,080 Speaker 4: not the best success rate in the world, but they're 1268 00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:12,160 Speaker 4: fourteenth and havoc allowed. They don't make mistakes. They're thirty 1269 00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:14,360 Speaker 4: first in lineyards. They can move the ball and standard down, 1270 00:58:14,440 --> 00:58:17,960 Speaker 4: stay on schedule. They've been excellent passing downs. Frank Harris 1271 00:58:18,200 --> 00:58:22,680 Speaker 4: at quarterback. Their sixteenth and passing down success rate, you know, 1272 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:26,080 Speaker 4: their top twenty and passing success rate. They're just everything 1273 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 4: moves with this offense, and that is a big achilles 1274 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:32,120 Speaker 4: heel to what is an outstanding UTEP defense. They have 1275 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:35,400 Speaker 4: a coverage drink of seventy first and UTEP's ninety fifth 1276 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:38,640 Speaker 4: against the explosive pass. So I want to make a 1277 00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 4: case for UTEP. I mean, the biggest issue backing UTEP 1278 00:58:41,600 --> 00:58:44,680 Speaker 4: in this game is their strength of record. That reflects 1279 00:58:44,680 --> 00:58:46,800 Speaker 4: the chance that an average top twenty five team would 1280 00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:52,080 Speaker 4: have the same record or better. UTSA eleventh and strength 1281 00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 4: of record UTEP one hundred and seventeenth. So when I 1282 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 4: look at these UTEP defensive numbers, I love you Minor Nation, 1283 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:01,560 Speaker 4: but you put these up against Mtthune Cookman who put 1284 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 4: up twenty eight, Boise State who put up fifty four. 1285 00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 4: Schedule includes Old Dominion, Southern miss La Tech. You flip 1286 00:59:08,280 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 4: over to UTSA and you got wins against Western Kentucky, Memphis, Illinois, 1287 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 4: I mean better victories. So you know, just by strength 1288 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:19,080 Speaker 4: of record alone, the UTCA defense is the difference in 1289 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:21,840 Speaker 4: this game. UTEP a heavy rush, but theyre one hundred 1290 00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:23,080 Speaker 4: and twenty fourth in success rate. 1291 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 1: They just they it's amazing how good their passing offense 1292 00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:27,720 Speaker 1: has been. I mean, they run it a lot so, 1293 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 1: but they had McCormick, which was the all right, this 1294 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 1: is gonna be the start of the show. But no, 1295 00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:33,880 Speaker 1: it's the passing offense. 1296 00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:36,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think one thing that I'm focusing on 1297 00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:39,600 Speaker 4: is that when UTEP scores their points and bunches, it 1298 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 4: comes in the fourth quarter. 1299 00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:42,240 Speaker 2: It comes in the second half. 1300 00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:45,320 Speaker 4: It's never like they come out guns blazing, you know, 1301 00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 4: even against New Mexico State. So this is a UTSA 1302 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,480 Speaker 4: play for me. I think I might cut it up 1303 00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 4: and do it first half, though the whole college fotball 1304 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 4: playoff snub the advantages that I see against the UTEB defense. 1305 00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 4: I think it's a first half play because UTEP has 1306 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:03,480 Speaker 4: proven against multiple teams in the fourth quarter they can 1307 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 4: get eighteen points up on the board real fast. I 1308 01:00:05,960 --> 01:00:08,280 Speaker 4: don't know where it comes from. I love you, Minor Nation, 1309 01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:10,600 Speaker 4: but this instant offense that comes in the fourth quarter, 1310 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 4: that's why we love you. 1311 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:13,680 Speaker 2: But I'm gonna try to avoid it and probably go 1312 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 2: UTSA first half here. 1313 01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:19,320 Speaker 1: They love covering, They've been certainly good at that. We'll 1314 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 1: go quickly here for a couple other games, just one sentence, 1315 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:24,600 Speaker 1: I'll give you Missouri only team of the country has 1316 01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:28,000 Speaker 1: yet to cover at Georgia. Georgia thirty nine point favorite. 1317 01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:29,800 Speaker 1: I mean I make this a little lower. I show 1318 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:32,840 Speaker 1: value on Missouri, but no thanks. I mean, Missouri's run 1319 01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 1: defense is historically bad, so Georgia can just hand that 1320 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 1: off here and who knows how much they can put up. 1321 01:00:37,080 --> 01:00:41,600 Speaker 1: By the way, Georgia's defense is in non garbage time possessions, 1322 01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:45,800 Speaker 1: non garbage time drives, allowing point three to two points 1323 01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:50,320 Speaker 1: per drive. Alabama in twenty eleven considered maybe the best 1324 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:55,400 Speaker 1: defense ever allowed point five around point three to two. Yeah, no, 1325 01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:57,560 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some aggression in the scoring. I mean, 1326 01:00:57,600 --> 01:00:59,480 Speaker 1: like Florida, how many drives did they get down of 1327 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,600 Speaker 1: the twenty and not score? But I mean this Georgia 1328 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:06,160 Speaker 1: defense is historically good. No, I have no interest in Missouri. 1329 01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:08,440 Speaker 1: Thirty nine is way too large. 1330 01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:11,040 Speaker 4: But once you look at the fact that Connor Bezilac 1331 01:01:11,120 --> 01:01:13,400 Speaker 4: had injury left the game and now drink with being 1332 01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:16,160 Speaker 4: mum about who the quarterback is, if Connor Beslack was 1333 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 4: in there, I would consider thirty nine, especially because I 1334 01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 4: make it like thirty three, and I think guess pete. 1335 01:01:20,880 --> 01:01:21,959 Speaker 2: Plus is at twenty nine. 1336 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:26,920 Speaker 4: But then I go and remember what Georgia dinigains Vanderbilt. 1337 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:28,520 Speaker 2: No Banks, So I'm gonna step out of this. I 1338 01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:29,240 Speaker 2: would consider with. 1339 01:01:29,200 --> 01:01:32,040 Speaker 1: The Basilac Texas, I would state I would stay six 1340 01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:34,920 Speaker 1: and a half point favorite. Is the monkey a distraction? 1341 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:37,439 Speaker 1: Is the monkey a rallying point? Anything here? 1342 01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 2: I listen. 1343 01:01:38,680 --> 01:01:41,680 Speaker 4: We have players getting into altercations, with Sark getting kicked 1344 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:46,400 Speaker 4: off the team. We've got special teams, coaches that make 1345 01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 4: a million dollars. Listen, people, if you have not gotten 1346 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:52,640 Speaker 4: into this monkey story is possibly some of the best 1347 01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,720 Speaker 4: entertainment that I've seen in college football. I mean, just 1348 01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 4: the whole scenario around the monkey's owner and how the 1349 01:01:59,160 --> 01:02:01,960 Speaker 4: owner came into this social team coordinator's life, the history 1350 01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:02,440 Speaker 4: behind that. 1351 01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:04,520 Speaker 1: The monkey's part of the stripping act. 1352 01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,600 Speaker 2: The monkey is on the pole, the monkey kisses the money, 1353 01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:11,320 Speaker 2: where's a diaper? And climbs the stripper pole. Find me 1354 01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:15,440 Speaker 2: a better entertainment value, NBA. I'm so tired of hearing 1355 01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:17,480 Speaker 2: how the NBA is the most dramatic league. I have 1356 01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:20,720 Speaker 2: a monkey on a pole, all right, Come on, NBA, 1357 01:02:21,040 --> 01:02:21,840 Speaker 2: try to live up to ze. 1358 01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:26,160 Speaker 1: So I said, he's only hiring men of high morality 1359 01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:29,720 Speaker 1: and care prairies. 1360 01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:36,240 Speaker 2: Guys are live and hut deep in the hid Texas. 1361 01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 4: Over over over here, Ya, the Texas defense is just 1362 01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:41,200 Speaker 4: not getting any better. 1363 01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:43,000 Speaker 2: Give me an over here. 1364 01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:45,120 Speaker 1: Any other games you want to mention, I'll throw out 1365 01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:51,200 Speaker 1: Navy Auto play maybe over two touchdowns. I took the 1366 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:56,400 Speaker 1: overlaying Navy plus twenty one. I don't care if they 1367 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:59,919 Speaker 1: are playing Georgia. If they're catching, I mean, obviously would 1368 01:02:59,920 --> 01:03:02,720 Speaker 1: be geting a lot more Navy over two touchdowns. Service 1369 01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 1: Academy were two touchdowns undefeated so far this year. Auto 1370 01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:08,920 Speaker 1: Auto Auto don't care if it loses. It's like sixty 1371 01:03:08,920 --> 01:03:11,720 Speaker 1: five percent historically and should continue to do so and 1372 01:03:11,800 --> 01:03:14,080 Speaker 1: build the market. Drysully reacts to these lot to the 1373 01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:15,919 Speaker 1: Service academies. But you like the over there. 1374 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:18,520 Speaker 2: I do like the over there with Navy. Something is 1375 01:03:18,560 --> 01:03:21,120 Speaker 2: clicked with them. It just wasn't a fluke against Cincinnati. 1376 01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:24,600 Speaker 4: They are actually getting, you know, some form of success 1377 01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:25,840 Speaker 4: rate with the triple option. 1378 01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:27,840 Speaker 2: So yes, I. 1379 01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:28,200 Speaker 1: Agree with you. 1380 01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:29,760 Speaker 2: Over I do like Navy two. 1381 01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:34,200 Speaker 4: I'm gonna pivot off into the other Service Academy game, 1382 01:03:34,320 --> 01:03:36,040 Speaker 4: Army and Air Force going up against each other. 1383 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:39,400 Speaker 2: I took over thirty seven stock I know, I know, 1384 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:41,320 Speaker 2: I know. And years ago you and I like this 1385 01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:43,200 Speaker 2: was like, I mean, this was huge for you and me. 1386 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,960 Speaker 4: I mean we these booked his osmakers would throw out 1387 01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:48,120 Speaker 4: fifty five and we would just pound that shit down 1388 01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:48,760 Speaker 4: to forty two. 1389 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:52,400 Speaker 2: Right, And now we're opening thirty seven, you know. 1390 01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:55,200 Speaker 4: And so when I when you break this game down, 1391 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna sit here and hide behind the spreadsheet 1392 01:03:57,960 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 4: and say, yeah, I make this forty four and a half. 1393 01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 4: But I will tell you that these teams have very 1394 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:09,040 Speaker 4: strong offensive finishing drives compared to their defensive counterparts. Army 1395 01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 4: thirteenth in offensive finishing drives, forty six on the Air 1396 01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 4: Force defense air Force thirty six in offensive enning drives, 1397 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:19,400 Speaker 4: Army one hundred and tenth in defensive finishing drives. So 1398 01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:21,919 Speaker 4: both teams are going to have success running the ball. 1399 01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:24,479 Speaker 4: Air Force has just been a machine running the ball. 1400 01:04:25,360 --> 01:04:26,840 Speaker 4: Army is going to be able to run the ball, 1401 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:28,800 Speaker 4: for whatever that's worth. I don't know about the status 1402 01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:31,080 Speaker 4: of Christian Anderson, but these two teams fold in the 1403 01:04:31,120 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 4: red zone. They fold when it gets within the forty 1404 01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:35,760 Speaker 4: thirty seven What is that? 1405 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 1: What is that? 1406 01:04:36,920 --> 01:04:39,240 Speaker 4: That's a It's seventeen to fourteen, and then there's a 1407 01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:40,840 Speaker 4: sneeze and it goes over. I mean, it's not hard 1408 01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:42,960 Speaker 4: to get over thirty seven. We saw that with Wisconsin 1409 01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:45,479 Speaker 4: and Iowa, So yeah, over for me on thirty seven. 1410 01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:48,320 Speaker 1: It's just different when service academies play each other. I 1411 01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:49,960 Speaker 1: can't I can't get on board with you there because 1412 01:04:49,960 --> 01:04:53,520 Speaker 1: the thirty seven Service Academy Betting Religion. 1413 01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,480 Speaker 4: Conversation last year that someday these totals would be opening 1414 01:04:56,480 --> 01:04:58,560 Speaker 4: in the thirties and we'd have to start playing overs. 1415 01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 2: Where did that stuck? You go? Where'd that guy go? 1416 01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:01,920 Speaker 2: You're gonna play this down? 1417 01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 1: I need lower, I need I need like thirty three 1418 01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:09,160 Speaker 1: to go over here. I make this thirty four no joke. 1419 01:05:09,520 --> 01:05:11,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk stick of the week. Let's stalk 1420 01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 1: the smelliest, fishiest line of the week. Smelly, smelly, smelly. 1421 01:05:17,760 --> 01:05:19,920 Speaker 2: It's the smell. It's quite pungent. 1422 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,480 Speaker 1: Dude, plug your nose, it's stinks. 1423 01:05:23,560 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 2: This is your stink of the week. 1424 01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:32,880 Speaker 1: Smell the one that I was gonna throw it. I mean, 1425 01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:34,920 Speaker 1: I like it. I like you have the side. But 1426 01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:36,760 Speaker 1: I could see a lot of people looking at Michigan 1427 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:38,440 Speaker 1: State and say, oh oh, they're only minus three on 1428 01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:43,120 Speaker 1: the road against how about you, what's the smelliest, smelliest 1429 01:05:43,120 --> 01:05:43,640 Speaker 1: line of the week? 1430 01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:46,800 Speaker 2: Easy, easy, This one was on the board. I was like, 1431 01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:48,080 Speaker 2: what is this? 1432 01:05:48,840 --> 01:05:52,560 Speaker 4: Old Dominion favored by three on the road to Florida International. 1433 01:05:53,080 --> 01:05:57,160 Speaker 4: Old Dominions lost ten straight on the road. They're one 1434 01:05:57,160 --> 01:05:59,800 Speaker 4: in fifteen straight up on the road since twenty eight 1435 01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:03,120 Speaker 4: That win was over a three and nine Western Kentucky team. 1436 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:06,840 Speaker 4: None of these players were on that team in twenty eighteen. 1437 01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:08,960 Speaker 4: This team can't win on the road. And then I 1438 01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:12,520 Speaker 4: go and I pulled Florida International splits. But Davis has 1439 01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 4: seven losses. There's no chance of making a ball. 1440 01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 2: I'm not sure what's being played for here, but Old 1441 01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:22,080 Speaker 2: Dominion favored on the road in an FBS game. Stink, 1442 01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 2: big stink. I'm probably gonna end up playing Florida International. 1443 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:27,400 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna like it. I am gonna watch it, 1444 01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:29,600 Speaker 2: and I'm probably gonna hate myself every second. But Old 1445 01:06:29,600 --> 01:06:30,680 Speaker 2: Dominion on the road, Come. 1446 01:06:30,520 --> 01:06:33,280 Speaker 1: On, smelly, all right, before we get out of here, let's 1447 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:35,800 Speaker 1: go three and out. 1448 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:38,520 Speaker 3: Let's make it a quick three and out. 1449 01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:41,800 Speaker 1: All right, First down, we got Friday night lights. 1450 01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:45,200 Speaker 2: That's here. Gentlemen, clear eyes, full hearts. 1451 01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:50,439 Speaker 1: Hey, let's go play some football. Yeah, Virginia Tech at 1452 01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:53,200 Speaker 1: Boston College. Boston College is a three point home underdog. 1453 01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 1: Virginia Tech off of a win at Georgia Tech helped 1454 01:06:56,800 --> 01:06:59,320 Speaker 1: our Georgia Tech season win total under what a roller coast. 1455 01:06:59,360 --> 01:07:03,800 Speaker 1: So that's been Boston College slipping here. You're seeing lately 1456 01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:07,560 Speaker 1: the impact of the injury to fill Djokovic, their star quarterback. 1457 01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:10,800 Speaker 1: Does BC get right here on Friday night? I think 1458 01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:13,680 Speaker 1: it's a red bandana game, so it is a red vanda. 1459 01:07:14,400 --> 01:07:15,640 Speaker 1: Crowd should be pretty good here. 1460 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:17,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, it is a red bandana game. You always back 1461 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:19,680 Speaker 4: BC in the red bandana game. It's a game that 1462 01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:23,640 Speaker 4: I project as a pick Virginia Tech. There are some 1463 01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 4: numbers that they have that are really bad. They're offensive 1464 01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:28,840 Speaker 4: finishing drives one hundred and fifteenth, their defense is one 1465 01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:31,560 Speaker 4: hundred and twenty fifth and defending explosive runs. I'm not 1466 01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:34,600 Speaker 4: saying Boston College can expose some of these things, but 1467 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:38,280 Speaker 4: Boston College's defense is twelfth in defensive finishing drives. I 1468 01:07:38,280 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 4: think they're going to do a great job. And listen, 1469 01:07:40,920 --> 01:07:43,560 Speaker 4: it's November. Jeff Hafley needs two wins to get to 1470 01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:46,160 Speaker 4: a Bowl, and there's not that many of these four 1471 01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:47,960 Speaker 4: games left. This is one that he has to have 1472 01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:50,400 Speaker 4: red Bandana game to get him to five wins. 1473 01:07:51,640 --> 01:07:52,600 Speaker 2: This is a really big deal. 1474 01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:57,040 Speaker 4: Boston College is tenth and pass coverage, they're fifteenth and tackling. 1475 01:07:57,120 --> 01:07:59,320 Speaker 2: They can get it in open space. I think Virginia 1476 01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:01,200 Speaker 2: Tech's a little bit old rated here. I'm not alone. 1477 01:08:01,240 --> 01:08:03,120 Speaker 2: I think s P plus makes this around two. 1478 01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:05,480 Speaker 1: So close to a pick too. 1479 01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:08,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, so Boston College here for me, just Grinn and Bart, 1480 01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:09,920 Speaker 4: but I mean Halfway's a great coach. 1481 01:08:10,360 --> 01:08:13,280 Speaker 2: I think Justin Fintay is on his way out. It's 1482 01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:16,679 Speaker 2: real phony numbers here with Virginia Tech that can be exposed. 1483 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:18,800 Speaker 1: I think I'll join you there on Friday night. Define 1484 01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:21,400 Speaker 1: gave in Utah Stanford. Utah's a up to a nine 1485 01:08:21,439 --> 01:08:24,720 Speaker 1: point favorite. On the road of Stanford. There's questions about 1486 01:08:24,720 --> 01:08:28,439 Speaker 1: if Tanner McKee will play, if he's not playing, could 1487 01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 1: get ugly, fast, might get ugly anyway, what do you 1488 01:08:30,880 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 1: see here? 1489 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a projection of eight and that was if 1490 01:08:34,520 --> 01:08:37,519 Speaker 4: McKee was playing. So that definitely makes Yah. That's a 1491 01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 4: big impact that Stanford. When he wasn't playing early in 1492 01:08:40,439 --> 01:08:42,519 Speaker 4: the season was living up to everything that we saw 1493 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,280 Speaker 4: in the under four and a half wins. There are 1494 01:08:45,320 --> 01:08:48,080 Speaker 4: some really bad numbers offensively that McKee is holding up. 1495 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 4: The best attribute that Stanford has on offense is if 1496 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:55,240 Speaker 4: they're twenty first and big play percentage and and you 1497 01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:57,519 Speaker 4: know that's just not going to be there without without McKee. 1498 01:08:57,560 --> 01:09:00,960 Speaker 4: So absolutely, for a Utah defense it's top twenty five 1499 01:09:01,000 --> 01:09:04,200 Speaker 4: in defensive HAVOC, they are going to go crazy on 1500 01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 4: a Stanford offense that is really struggling to to you know, 1501 01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:11,639 Speaker 4: maintain they're terrible and havoc allowed, they're terrible, their bottom 1502 01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:14,040 Speaker 4: ten in lineyards, they're one hundred and fifth in offensive 1503 01:09:14,040 --> 01:09:14,759 Speaker 4: finishing drives. 1504 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:16,639 Speaker 2: Utah defense will have a good time against that. 1505 01:09:17,080 --> 01:09:18,280 Speaker 4: And then if you look at the other side of 1506 01:09:18,280 --> 01:09:20,960 Speaker 4: the ball, Stanford's defense is just dreadful, one hundred and 1507 01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:24,760 Speaker 4: seventeenth in defensive HAVOC, almost dead last in lineyards. That 1508 01:09:25,080 --> 01:09:27,519 Speaker 4: is the handicap of the game because Utah is a 1509 01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:32,320 Speaker 4: fantastic team at running the ball, top fifteen in lineyards, 1510 01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:34,320 Speaker 4: and that's what's going to expose Stanford. So yeah, I 1511 01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:36,800 Speaker 4: agree with mckey's out. There's no there's no limit to 1512 01:09:36,840 --> 01:09:39,400 Speaker 4: this number. I'd probably stop buying at thirteen. 1513 01:09:39,960 --> 01:09:43,040 Speaker 1: Let's move on to second down, talk our favorite overdogs 1514 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:45,599 Speaker 1: and underdogs for those off mini overdogs, our favorite favorite 1515 01:09:45,640 --> 01:09:48,840 Speaker 1: on the board. I'll start favorite overdog. I think I 1516 01:09:48,880 --> 01:09:51,519 Speaker 1: might lay it here with Cincy, since he minus twenty 1517 01:09:51,640 --> 01:09:53,920 Speaker 1: two and a half. There's some I think there's some 1518 01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:56,960 Speaker 1: value on the tails with Cincinnati because you know there's 1519 01:09:56,960 --> 01:10:00,280 Speaker 1: a distribution of outcomes and these lines as soon. I 1520 01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:02,679 Speaker 1: don't think it's being built into the fact that since 1521 01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:04,400 Speaker 1: he wants to run up the score the last week's 1522 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,400 Speaker 1: I've been a position to do so. But when they 1523 01:10:06,479 --> 01:10:09,439 Speaker 1: have been normally, when you're a team up twenty, you're 1524 01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:12,519 Speaker 1: gonna play soft defense. You're not trying to score. That 1525 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:16,320 Speaker 1: impacts you know how easy or difficult it is to cover, 1526 01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:19,800 Speaker 1: you know, a touchdown every three. I'd spread over three touchdowns. 1527 01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:22,000 Speaker 1: But in this case, if since he's up twenty four late, 1528 01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:26,160 Speaker 1: they don't want Tulsa to score those has been dreadful 1529 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:28,960 Speaker 1: by the way, and they want to keep scoring, especially 1530 01:10:29,000 --> 01:10:31,280 Speaker 1: after getting snubbed in the College f wall ploff. Since 1531 01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 1: he wants to come out here and raise middle fingers 1532 01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:35,400 Speaker 1: up to everyone in the in the country and college 1533 01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:37,600 Speaker 1: full Cloff. ESPN tried to get Desmond Ritter on that 1534 01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:39,680 Speaker 1: on the show. He wouldn't go. I mean, this is 1535 01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:42,439 Speaker 1: a pissed off Sincey team against what looks like a 1536 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 1: lame duck Tulsa team this year. I'm sure Tulsa will 1537 01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:47,719 Speaker 1: get up for this early to try and ruin Sincy's season. 1538 01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:49,920 Speaker 1: But if they get behind this one could could get 1539 01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:51,320 Speaker 1: ugly quick. Yeah. 1540 01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:53,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, I completely agree with you there. I was gonna 1541 01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 4: go Oregon on my overdog and then you talked me 1542 01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:58,240 Speaker 4: out of it. You completely talked me out of it. 1543 01:10:58,280 --> 01:10:59,960 Speaker 4: And I don't like the weather, so I'm gonna chain 1544 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:01,800 Speaker 4: my overdog. 1545 01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:07,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with Michigan. Nobody loves boot Dog Jim. 1546 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:13,360 Speaker 2: Don't gamble, don't associate with gamblers. Avoid it like the plague. 1547 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:18,280 Speaker 3: Let's check in with Bodog Jim. 1548 01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, nobody loves bullying teams. 1549 01:11:20,640 --> 01:11:24,400 Speaker 4: That are beat up, injured, that are struggling than Bowdog Jim. 1550 01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:27,400 Speaker 4: And considering that he finished seventh in the College Football 1551 01:11:27,400 --> 01:11:32,160 Speaker 4: Playoff rankings, style points matter, Michigan is at home, Indiana. 1552 01:11:32,280 --> 01:11:34,720 Speaker 4: You can just kind of you can pop them out 1553 01:11:34,720 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 4: for any postseason play. Too many injuries, never got the 1554 01:11:38,000 --> 01:11:40,439 Speaker 4: offense going. Now the defense is starting to sag a 1555 01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:43,679 Speaker 4: little bit. Michigan is going to do everything they can 1556 01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:48,080 Speaker 4: to get the Committee's attention with the score overdog Michigan. 1557 01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:52,040 Speaker 1: All right, try to move on to our favorite money line. 1558 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:59,840 Speaker 3: Underdog turning good weekends into great weekends. It's time for 1559 01:11:59,880 --> 01:12:01,520 Speaker 3: the money line parlay. 1560 01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:05,160 Speaker 1: Colin, you hit again last week. I gotta pick it 1561 01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:10,799 Speaker 1: up here. There's not much to say or for me, Pdue. 1562 01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:15,519 Speaker 1: Purdue is ending Sparty's dream run. What do you got? 1563 01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:17,479 Speaker 2: I waited as long as I could. 1564 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:19,200 Speaker 4: I still don't think I've put a play in the 1565 01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 4: app and I still haven't shoved money over the counter. 1566 01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:24,839 Speaker 2: But the team that I want is Memphis. 1567 01:12:25,680 --> 01:12:28,400 Speaker 4: SMU is well, first off, I'm not going to play 1568 01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:31,680 Speaker 4: the whole Sunny Dikes is desperately wanted by TCU and 1569 01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:34,040 Speaker 4: by Texas Tech, and Sunny Dikes is on his way 1570 01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:36,280 Speaker 4: out of SMU, which is is you know, I don't 1571 01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:37,479 Speaker 4: think that's a part of the handicap. 1572 01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:40,560 Speaker 2: The handicap really is that SMU's defense is getting. 1573 01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:43,280 Speaker 4: Worse at tackling one hundred and twenty third. They're getting 1574 01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:46,439 Speaker 4: worse at pass coverage one hundred and twenty seventh. We 1575 01:12:46,520 --> 01:12:49,720 Speaker 4: need freshman Seth Hennigan back in at Memphis at quarterback. 1576 01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:52,720 Speaker 4: Peter Parrish, you know, filled in at quarterback for Seth 1577 01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:56,080 Speaker 4: Henigan last week with an injury. Wasn't fantastic, but it's 1578 01:12:56,120 --> 01:12:58,800 Speaker 4: still a passing offense, an explosive passing offense that can 1579 01:12:58,840 --> 01:13:00,760 Speaker 4: take advantage of this SMU defense that is. 1580 01:13:00,760 --> 01:13:02,439 Speaker 2: Just absolutely falling apart. 1581 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:06,360 Speaker 4: SMU is also outside the top one hundred in SP 1582 01:13:06,400 --> 01:13:07,400 Speaker 4: plus special teams. 1583 01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:08,880 Speaker 2: A lot of issues here. 1584 01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:11,280 Speaker 4: Now Tanner Mordecai in the offense can still sling it. 1585 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:13,559 Speaker 4: I expect this to be a shootout, but there is 1586 01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:17,040 Speaker 4: a massive difference in tackling here. Memphis top twenty five, 1587 01:13:17,439 --> 01:13:20,640 Speaker 4: SMU near dead last, and that is important when you 1588 01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:23,080 Speaker 4: are having an explosive game where teams are going up 1589 01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 4: and down the field. If Seth Henigan is in this game, 1590 01:13:26,080 --> 01:13:30,880 Speaker 4: that's even better. There was mentioned that Memphis changed some 1591 01:13:30,920 --> 01:13:32,880 Speaker 4: things for Peter Parrish and they expect a lot more 1592 01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:34,559 Speaker 4: out of him this week if he is the starter 1593 01:13:34,880 --> 01:13:37,880 Speaker 4: and again can still play. That freshman kid's got a 1594 01:13:37,960 --> 01:13:39,800 Speaker 4: heck of an arm on. I'm gonna go Memphis here, 1595 01:13:39,880 --> 01:13:42,880 Speaker 4: a money line underdog. We're gonna get this with Purdue. 1596 01:13:43,640 --> 01:13:45,240 Speaker 1: Yeah they could. You could have a little bit of 1597 01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:48,320 Speaker 1: a leftown two for rest of you after that thrilling, 1598 01:13:48,439 --> 01:13:51,800 Speaker 1: heartbreaking loss in that game against Houston last week. Yeah, 1599 01:13:51,920 --> 01:13:54,960 Speaker 1: to end their undefeated campaign. All right, before we get 1600 01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,559 Speaker 1: out of here, third down, our favorite bet of the weekend. 1601 01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:01,240 Speaker 1: I'll start here, shocker, We're going Purdue. Uh, this is 1602 01:14:01,280 --> 01:14:06,000 Speaker 1: a Purdue podcast this week, boiler Look. I mentioned it earlier. 1603 01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:08,559 Speaker 1: Purdue plus three at home against Michigan State. First all, 1604 01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:11,439 Speaker 1: it's a bad spot for Michigan State. Just dential letdown there. 1605 01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:13,200 Speaker 1: You know, hey, look, we're in the top four of 1606 01:14:13,240 --> 01:14:16,200 Speaker 1: the Collegetable Playoff. We had an emotional comeback win over 1607 01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:19,360 Speaker 1: our in state rival. This is a team that got 1608 01:14:19,360 --> 01:14:21,519 Speaker 1: out played by Michigan. Should have lost that game, got 1609 01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:23,760 Speaker 1: out played by Nebraska, should have lost that game, could 1610 01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:26,000 Speaker 1: have lost to Indiana, got out gained in that game. 1611 01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:28,519 Speaker 1: And their backup quarterback. You know, they're getting all these 1612 01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:32,000 Speaker 1: non offensive touchdowns at key points in time. Even in Miami, 1613 01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:34,240 Speaker 1: he did a big fourth quarter. Twam could have four losses. 1614 01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:37,280 Speaker 1: I also like the matchup for for due produced defense 1615 01:14:37,320 --> 01:14:39,519 Speaker 1: been one of the most underrated units in the country. 1616 01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:44,160 Speaker 1: New staff has been you know, implemented a more aggressive defense. 1617 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:46,360 Speaker 1: I think that they can key on Walker. They've been 1618 01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:48,639 Speaker 1: good against the run, top thirty success rate in EPA 1619 01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:51,040 Speaker 1: for rush, and I don't think you're gonna see Jalen 1620 01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 1: Naylor out there, the star receiver for Michigan State. That 1621 01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:57,559 Speaker 1: will help the other side of the ball. Michigan State's 1622 01:14:57,560 --> 01:15:00,920 Speaker 1: biggest weakness this year has been in coverage, and as 1623 01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:03,920 Speaker 1: a result, they're playing really soft. That plays right into 1624 01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:07,559 Speaker 1: Produe's hands. David Bell should have a big day. This quick, 1625 01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:10,040 Speaker 1: short passing attack of Purdue. I think he's going to 1626 01:15:10,120 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 1: move the awful spot for Michigan State. We've seen Purdue 1627 01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:15,240 Speaker 1: pull off some upsets in similar spots in the past 1628 01:15:15,280 --> 01:15:17,439 Speaker 1: under Brohm. I think they do it again. Give me 1629 01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:20,400 Speaker 1: the boil on akers and a shot and a beer 1630 01:15:20,479 --> 01:15:25,439 Speaker 1: to go with it on Saturday afternoon. Purdue, Purdue, They're 1631 01:15:25,520 --> 01:15:26,559 Speaker 1: not even a real school. 1632 01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:28,720 Speaker 2: What the hell is the Purdue? Yeah, I agree with you. 1633 01:15:28,760 --> 01:15:31,639 Speaker 4: I like that play, and I'm going to go follow 1634 01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:33,320 Speaker 4: up with my best bet. Let's go a little G 1635 01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:36,960 Speaker 4: five action. Let's go Marshall Florida Atlantic right now, on 1636 01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:39,080 Speaker 4: the board fifty seven and a half fifty eight. Let's 1637 01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:40,760 Speaker 4: take the over on that number, take it up to 1638 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:42,519 Speaker 4: fifty nine to fifty nine, one of the biggest key 1639 01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:44,400 Speaker 4: numbers in all of college football. So you'll want to 1640 01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:47,439 Speaker 4: get south of that with this overplay. At first you 1641 01:15:47,479 --> 01:15:50,439 Speaker 4: start off, you look at the tempo. Marshall is fifth 1642 01:15:50,439 --> 01:15:53,160 Speaker 4: in the nation and plays per mint it Florida Atlantic 1643 01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:54,479 Speaker 4: thirtieth and place permitted. 1644 01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:56,400 Speaker 2: These two teams, Willy Taggart. 1645 01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:58,360 Speaker 4: Charles Hoff, they want to go up and down the 1646 01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 4: field as fast as possible. This is a number that 1647 01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:03,559 Speaker 4: I project at about sixty and a half, so I 1648 01:16:03,600 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 4: still think it's got room to run. But more importantly, 1649 01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:08,960 Speaker 4: like Marshall and Grant Wells, he's not going to get 1650 01:16:09,000 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 4: any pressure whatsoever. The Marshall offensive line has been fantastic 1651 01:16:12,280 --> 01:16:16,559 Speaker 4: at protecting him top twenty and pass blocking. Florida Atlantic 1652 01:16:16,560 --> 01:16:19,040 Speaker 4: has been terrible getting to the quarterback outside the top 1653 01:16:19,080 --> 01:16:21,880 Speaker 4: one hundred and pass rush outside the top fifty. In 1654 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:23,880 Speaker 4: defensive havoc. They're not going to be able to stop 1655 01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:25,720 Speaker 4: what Marshall wants to do, and that is get the 1656 01:16:25,720 --> 01:16:28,679 Speaker 4: ball down the field fast. And Grant Wells is much 1657 01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:31,200 Speaker 4: better with a clean pocket than a crowded pocket. As 1658 01:16:31,240 --> 01:16:34,280 Speaker 4: far as Florida Atlantic goes, it's a very explosive offense. 1659 01:16:34,760 --> 01:16:36,880 Speaker 4: They can take advantage of a Marshall defense that is 1660 01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:40,839 Speaker 4: ninetieth and rushing success rate ninety third, defensive havoc themselves. 1661 01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:42,800 Speaker 2: There's nobody taking the ball away from each other. 1662 01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:45,439 Speaker 4: There is lightning fast tempo going on in this game 1663 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:47,920 Speaker 4: and two offenses that know how to get touchdowns up 1664 01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:49,680 Speaker 4: on the board, and that is if the explosive play 1665 01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:52,120 Speaker 4: isn't already putting it in the end zone. I like 1666 01:16:52,160 --> 01:16:54,960 Speaker 4: these ultra fast teams getting the over in this game. 1667 01:16:56,080 --> 01:16:59,320 Speaker 1: Like it may join you there.
