But look, Thor, 10 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: it was an interesting week four man. The Notre Dame 11 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: Ohios Day game was crazy. We had a lot of 12 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: stuff happen. So just your quick take on what went 13 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,639 Speaker 1: down in Week four, what surprised you the most and 14 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: what did you like the most? 15 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,639 Speaker 3: Fun is Saturday at college football. So far Notre Dame 16 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 3: fans would not agree with me, Colorado fans wouldn't agree 17 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 3: with me. But I mean, overall, it was so fun. 18 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 3: It was a pack day in terms of the games, 19 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 3: Like Mike Kansas Jayhawks were playing at two thirty Central 20 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 3: against BYU, but there was the three nasty matchups at 21 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 3: the same time. So I was like, you know, I 22 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:04,959 Speaker 3: was like Tom Cruise, a Minority Report where he's like 23 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 3: grabbing the images like like with all the different screens 24 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 3: I have like trying to figure it out whatnot. But 25 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 3: it was so fun. You had the day where it 26 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 3: was super fun and then at night and again Notre 27 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,319 Speaker 3: Dame fans are going to disagree with me, but a 28 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 3: bit of an instant classic with the Ohio State one 29 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 3: and the way that that thing ended. And I still 30 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 3: can't wrap my head around the way that that game ended. 31 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 3: Marcus Freeman's been taking questions about that the last several days. 32 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 3: But was a super fun day of college football and 33 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 3: I'm ready to try to win some money here in 34 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 3: Week five. 35 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 1: It's gonna be the ten men on the field game. 36 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: That's what it's going to be the end of the 37 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: day when we're talking about it. You know, because we 38 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 1: remember Bush push and things like that. You know this 39 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: is going to be the ten men on the field game. 40 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: So tough, tough blow if youre Notre Dame.

The line right now is three 58 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: and a half in favor of the home Beavers. Here 59 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: forty four and a half is the total. Tickets are 60 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 1: a little bit on Utah, but cash is favly heavily 61 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 1: favored on Oregon State, and the totals not getting a 62 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: lot of love. But ninety five percent of the tickets 63 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 1: are on the under. Do you have a good lean 64 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,959 Speaker 1: one way or the other at any point in this game? 65 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:58,639 Speaker 1: On Friday night. 66 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna do my second pop culture reference at 67 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,839 Speaker 3: the day. But remembering Game of Thrones where it's John 68 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 3: Snow and then all the horses are descending on him 69 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 3: and he's guys sword. 70 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: Sword that's exactinitely wobbling right ten seconds before he unleashed it. 71 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember that. 72 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's me against the Sharps this week. I am 73 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: on Utah. I'm on the other side. I know there's 74 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 3: a lot of smart people who are on Oregon State here, 75 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 3: but especially with the three and a half, I just 76 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 3: think that there's a lot of value on Utah here. 77 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 3: Utah a team that is four and zero to this point, 78 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 3: despite the fact that they've played those four games without 79 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 3: a ton of starters, right, Like, I mean, Cam Rising 80 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 3: predominantly is the one that's mentioned. Brion Keithy is the 81 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 3: other one. But for instance, in the opener against Florida, 82 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 3: they be Florida by double digits without eight starters, eight 83 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 3: projected starters. They're going to be starting to get some 84 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: of those guys back. There was a quote from Kyle 85 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 3: Whittingham on Monday. We've got about eight or ten guys 86 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 3: that are very very close Rising speaking to him. He 87 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 3: was medically cleared last week. We all thought he was 88 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: going to start that plan change at the very end, 89 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: but he's been at practices and everything like that. There's 90 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: a shot they get Rising back in this game, and 91 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 3: there's a shot that they get multiple other starters back 92 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 3: in this game as well. But even without that, I 93 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,799 Speaker 3: think the advanced data suggests that Utah is a strong 94 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,160 Speaker 3: play here. At the three and a half, they have 95 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 3: a well first of all, I mean, with all those 96 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:26,239 Speaker 3: guys out, Utah still has sp plus's number eleven resume strength. 97 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 3: To this point, the nasty defense goes without saying, and 98 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 3: it shuts down opposing running games. Oregon's entire offense is 99 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 3: generated almost predominantly from their running attack. If Utah is 100 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 3: able to take that thing away or greatly slow it, 101 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 3: which is what I think is going to happen, it's 102 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 3: going to force you a gallele to move the ball. 103 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,679 Speaker 3: He's been able to hit a couple of long shots, 104 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 3: but like the efficiency, it's not there, and I think 105 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 3: that could be a problem here where you're punting, you're punting, 106 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 3: you're punting. And then meanwhile on the other side, Oregon 107 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 3: State has a solid defense but it's not as good 108 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:03,840 Speaker 3: as you. Utah's defense and Utah their offense. It's basically 109 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 3: just a lesser version of what Oregon State it tries 110 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 3: to do. It's the same sort of schema when Cam 111 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 3: Rising is not in chip Away with the run, chip 112 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 3: Away with the run and an explosive pass play is 113 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 3: there every now and again. I think Utah's defense that's 114 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 3: the elite unit in this game. I think they put 115 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 3: a brake on Oregon States offense. And we have the 116 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,040 Speaker 3: bullets here of all those kids that could potentially come 117 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 3: back for Utah, including Cam Rising. I'm playing this one 118 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 3: three and a half what not without any of that 119 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 3: information the guys that could return, but if they do, 120 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 3: we have an enormous amount of value here on Utah. 121 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 3: I'm taking the utes. 122 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 2: All right. 123 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: Let's go over to Saturday number eight. USC is a 124 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: twenty one and a half point road favorite at Colorado. 125 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: The total is seventy three and a half big total here. Look, 126 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: tickets of cash are on USC. The tickets in cash 127 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 1: are split on the total here, most of the cash 128 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: going towards the under in this game, I mean, I 129 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: I think USC's gonna win thor and I think they're 130 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: gonna win going away. The question is it to me 131 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: is about the total because I think I'm definitely on 132 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: the Trojans here. Colorado kind of looked like what we 133 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: expected them to look like week one. Last week against 134 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: a great Oregon team that was obviously inspired. Dan Lanning 135 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: let his feelings known here, but sure your thoughts on 136 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,239 Speaker 1: this usc Colorado tilt. 137 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 3: So did the Orgon video team. I don't know if 138 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 3: you saw that that four minute cinematic redo they out 139 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 3: of the game or whatever, and they were they were 140 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 3: showing Shilah Sanders talking junk before the game, and they 141 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 3: were showing the one Colorado kid it was kicking the 142 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 3: oh before the game, and that the rest of it 143 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 3: was just Oregon annihilating them. Because of the results of 144 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 3: that game, I think that there is a little bit 145 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 3: of value on Colorado, but it's it's getting zapp now. 146 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 3: I bought a car rat a plus twenty four and 147 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 3: a half ticket on Sunday. My adjusted line is USC 148 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 3: minus nineteen point four. That's in a vacuum. You know, 149 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 3: you can add a couple of points or a point 150 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 3: and a half for Travis Hunter whatever. I would play 151 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 3: Colorado at the twenty one and a half, but not 152 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 3: at twenty one. I think that's where the buck would 153 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 3: stop there. Like I said, you're really you're getting closer 154 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 3: to the margins. Now I agree with it you say 155 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 3: about USC for sure as the best offense in America. 156 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 3: They also sort of sneakily have a top ten special 157 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 3: teams unit this year, in part because of the kicks. Yeah, 158 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 3: the return yeah, mister branch there, Yeah, elevating that whole thing. 159 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 3: And the defense has gotten a little bit better too. 160 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 3: They're up to number forty one. It might not seem 161 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 3: like that because of not as last year they had 162 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 3: that the historical fluke with the turnovers that they were generating, whatnot. 163 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 3: But you like that sort of stuff. But the defense 164 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 3: still isn't great great, and it still struggles to tackle. 165 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 3: I think Colorado can generate enough points here if you're 166 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 3: giving them three possessions on the line. Shadeer Sanders continues 167 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 3: to be incredible. Shadeer Sanders has been pressured, I believe 168 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 3: in the aggregate more than any other quarterback this year, 169 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 3: or if it's not that it's top three, and yet 170 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 3: he is top five if among qualifying quarterbacks in PFF 171 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 3: passing grade under duress, so he gets a lot of it, 172 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 3: but he knows how to handle that sort of thing. 173 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 3: Colorado's offense they can't really run the ball. That's one 174 00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 3: of the problems. But you know, between Sanders and then 175 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 3: between the getting the ball into space and forcing USC 176 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 3: to tackle them, I'm willing to take those points with them. 177 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:41,439 Speaker 3: Like I said, if it's over twenty one, if it 178 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 3: hits twenty one, I'm not interested in that. And then 179 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 3: as far as the total over for sure, you know, 180 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 3: I talked about this with your buddy Welsh on Sunday. 181 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 3: I think that on that day it was like seventy one. 182 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,720 Speaker 3: My system has this thing either mid seventies, high seventies, 183 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 3: so you know, it was like over over over, and 184 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 3: it's gone up by about a field goal ever since then, 185 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 3: less value there, for sure. I would still lean over 186 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 3: on that. But that's where I be in this one. 187 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: I mean, has what is it? What is USC on 188 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: the season for over unders? I mean, are they four 189 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: and oher on the overs here? Like I know they've 190 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: hit a lot of overs so far. I know, Yeah, 191 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: this is a Lincoln Riley trade, isn't it. 192 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 3: The four games to this point have gone over. Yeah, 193 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 3: and the average nine point five points over the total 194 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 3: per game for USC. 195 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, and this is a Lincoln Riley trade. Great offense, 196 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: bad defense. So we've seen in Oklahoma, we've seen it 197 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: at USC now and it is interesting. But let's move 198 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: over to the sec number twenty two. Florida on the 199 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: road at Kentucky. Kentucky is a three point home favorite. 200 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 2: Here. 201 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: The tickets and cash are favoring Kentucky. The total here 202 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 1: is forty four tickets and cash both on the over. 203 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: Both tickets are closer to US split than cash is 204 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: favoring on the over and on Kentucky. Here, what are 205 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: your thoughts? I mean, because Florida has been up and down, 206 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 1: Kentucky's been good. I don't know if they're good enough 207 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: for this line though, What do you think about it? 208 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna lay the three or the two and 209 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 3: a half with Kentucky. I'm I'm perfectly comfortable with that. 210 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 3: I think this is a really good matchup for Kentucky. 211 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 3: You look at the Florida team like you look down 212 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 3: at their advanced stat profile. They're a very clear you 213 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 3: know where they lean whatnot. Their offense is efficient, and 214 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 3: their their defense is efficient as well, but the offense 215 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 3: can't generate explosive plays and the defense gets ripped for 216 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 3: too many explosive plays. So when you're looking to play 217 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 3: on them or against them, you're looking at the opponent 218 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 3: and how they sort of fit in with that. Kentucky 219 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 3: four and all start three and one against the spread. 220 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 3: They are sneakily because I don't think people know this 221 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 3: about them. One of the most explosive offenses in the 222 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 3: country so far, number four marginal explosiveness, and they're there. 223 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 3: Their defense also takes away the explos to plays number seven. 224 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 3: Their defense is also efficient, So I think Kentucky's defense 225 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 3: can address, well, you know what Florida wants to do 226 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:12,600 Speaker 3: greatly slow them down, whereas Kentucky's offense directly goes into 227 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 3: the weakness of the Florida defense. I think Kentucky's going 228 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 3: to generate a lot of explosive plays on Saturday, and 229 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 3: I like them. I like them to win by more 230 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 3: than a field goal. 231 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 2: It's going to be a fun one, for sure. 232 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: This one is going to be fun for you and 233 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: I thorn number twenty four Kansas coming in ranked at 234 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: number three. Texas here last time this game was in Texas. 235 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,839 Speaker 1: I think, wasn't that the one that I was at 236 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 1: Thor that went into overtime and Kansas won on the 237 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: two point conversion and Beijon got hurt and Casey Thompson 238 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: was still at Texas at that point, not getting a. 239 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 3: Game, and can I buy your ticket? On your ticket, 240 00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 3: I'm not going. 241 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 2: I'm not going. I don't need to plan anyway. It's 242 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 2: three hour drive. 243 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: But sixteen and a half is the line here in 244 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 1: favor of my Longhorn. Sixty three and a half is 245 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: the total the ticket in Casher on Kansas. They have 246 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: been the bane of Texas's existence. Yeah, I mean Texas 247 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: did just speed bump Baylor on the way out of 248 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: the Big twelve, which I thought was very good, and 249 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: I feel like they might do that to Kansas here 250 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: as well. 251 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: What do you think? 252 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a this is a tough one. You know. 253 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 3: I'm trying to stay away from betting the Kansas gates more, 254 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 3: you know, because you already have enough invested in you know. 255 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,839 Speaker 3: I don't know if you feel the same way about Texas, But. 256 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: Well, I was mad at Kansas by not beating the 257 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: VATA by twenty eight with the worst offense in the 258 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: league and letting them score. 259 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 2: That made me mad. 260 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I always had Texas ever, because it's always 261 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 1: bad luck for me. 262 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 3: So that was a bad situational spot for Kansas. This 263 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 3: is a bad situational spot for Texas next week, as 264 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 3: you know, as the Red River shootout. This you're gonna 265 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,280 Speaker 3: have look ahead to that thing. And even though the 266 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 3: other thing, like you're mentioning, Kansas has been the sort 267 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 3: of the sneaky bane of Texas's existence, it's you know, 268 00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,840 Speaker 3: I mean the previous supset to that was when they 269 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 3: ended Charlie Strong's although maybe Longhorned fans look back at 270 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 3: that one longingly because you got him out of there. Kansas. 271 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 1: Five carries for Deontay Foreman is what I remember, and 272 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: still losing. 273 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, And you know in Kansas, the other thing 274 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 3: is they've also been close. They've had a couple near 275 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 3: misses where they almost upset Texas. But you do have 276 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 3: that overlook for Texas in this game. Oklahoma looks a 277 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 3: lot better this year. That's obviously the big one there. 278 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 3: In terms of my numbers, they don't suggest there's any 279 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 3: value here. I think I had Texas by nineteen point 280 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 3: five like something like that. But between all those things, 281 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 3: I understand why this line has, you know, seventeen and 282 00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 3: a half, then seventeen. Now it's down to sixteen and 283 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 3: a half. I think the sharps in the market understand 284 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 3: what kind of a spot this is for Texas, a 285 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,440 Speaker 3: really tough spot, and there's things that Kansas can do 286 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 3: that can I'm not going to say give Texas a 287 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 3: defense trouble, but where they can try to solve and 288 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 3: move away from the pronounced strengths of it. As you know, 289 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 3: the Texas defensive line this year is absolute nasty. I 290 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 3: think in Kansas on their side, they have one of 291 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 3: the better Yeah, Kansas has one of the better offensive 292 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:11,079 Speaker 3: game planning staffs in America that I don't think people 293 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 3: realize that, but it's just so smart and it's always 294 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:17,200 Speaker 3: game and matchup specific. You can this is not a 295 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 3: Devin Neil game, So you're gonna be playing the Unders 296 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 3: and Devin Neils props because I think they're gonna go 297 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,480 Speaker 3: away from the run, use it more for the play action, 298 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 3: different stuff like that. This is a Jalen Daniels game. 299 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 3: Ken Jalen Daniels put a scare into Texas and or 300 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 3: upset them. He's already done at one time. The quarterback 301 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 3: of Kansas team the last time they went into Austin 302 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 3: upset Texas was Jalen Daniels. You mentioned it, the two 303 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 3: point conversion. What they're going to try to do is 304 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 3: confuse the safeties at Texas and then get the ball 305 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 3: onto the side of the field where they have the 306 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 3: number advantage, and then play keep away on the perimeters, 307 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 3: and then and then deep they're you know, taking some 308 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 3: deep shots whatnot. It's all gonna come down to that. 309 00:14:55,720 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 3: Jalen Daniels. You look at the qualified PFF quarterbacks. I 310 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 3: think he's top five in grade so far this season. 311 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 3: He missed the opener against the FCS team, but that 312 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 3: just means he didn't have any stat padding whatever. He's 313 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 3: been playing pretty well so far in this game. Up 314 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 3: to this point, Kansas's passing offense had been a little 315 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 3: more risk averse. I don't know if Jalen Daniels is 316 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 3: at any maybe one turnover worthy play as charted by PFF, 317 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 3: but I think only two big time throws because he's 318 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 3: just been keeping it out of those tight windows so far. 319 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 3: This is a game where they need to go into 320 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 3: the They're gonna have to go into the tight windows 321 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 3: a little bit more. So that's gonna be some something 322 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 3: interesting to look at. The Other thing I'll mention about 323 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 3: Daniels that helps in this game is he has been 324 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 3: very good under duress to this point. You know, we 325 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 3: were talking about that stat whatnot. His play has not 326 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 3: cratered as much as most of the quarterbacks. You look 327 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 3: at the qualifying quarterbacks in terms of PFF under pressure grades, 328 00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 3: he is way way high up there. That is what 329 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 3: is going to have to carry the day for him here. 330 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 3: Last week against BYU, Daniels was consistently under duress. Texas 331 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 3: is defense is going to bring it a lot more 332 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 3: than that. But if Daniels can continue to make the 333 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 3: correct decisions under pressure and stuff like that, at least 334 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 3: gives them the shot. This is a stayaway for me. 335 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 3: I will just be a fan in this game. But again, 336 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 3: I understand what that line is dropped Beneze sixteen or 337 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 3: Benize seventeen. 338 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I understand all the offensive stuff, but to me, 339 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: it's about Kansas can't do anything on defense, not against Texas. 340 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 3: That's a tough thing. 341 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: I think Texas is going to score most drives, so 342 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: they're gonna stop themselves with some drops because the wide 343 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: receivers at Texas do drop the ball on occasion. Hopefully 344 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: those don't turn into picks or anything, because that's where 345 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: you get in trouble. But I just don't you know, 346 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: Texas offense is rolling right now. 347 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,960 Speaker 3: So yeah, in Kansas's defense, only eighty fourth sp plus Obviously, 348 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 3: that is the weakness Kansas offense its top twenty s 349 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 3: pplus and by the way, Kansas is the number one 350 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 3: sp plus special teams unit. If we get really close 351 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 3: to the margins on this line during the game, Kansas' 352 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 3: special teams potentially could help them there. But the Kansas 353 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 3: defensive profile is interesting. They're going to force quinn Ewers 354 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 3: to be a little bit more methodical through the air. 355 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 3: Kansas pass defense not good in success rate ninety second, 356 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 3: but they're thirty third in marginal explosiveness. But they have 357 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 3: the opposite tendency as a rush defense, thirty seventh in 358 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 3: success rate, but only one hundred and eleventh in terms 359 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 3: of allowing those explosive runs. Jonathan Brooks got loose a 360 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 3: couple times last week. He's been playing very well mister 361 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 3: Jonathan Brooks, that's one thing that has to concern you 362 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,680 Speaker 3: just a little bit. On that side, Jonathan Brooks would 363 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 3: be an overplay this week. 364 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: I think so too, so good call on that for sure. 365 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:39,760 Speaker 1: Let's go over to the back to the SEC. 366 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 3: Number one. 367 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 1: Georgia, a fourteen and a half point road favorite at 368 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 1: Auburn forty six and a half, is totally here. Look, 369 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: Georgia is they got to be number one, I think 370 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: on all the ballots, right, Like I understand Texas got 371 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 1: a couple number one votes and I think Florida State 372 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: might have got one to There's other good teams, but 373 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: you know, george is working on a three pet here. 374 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: But the one thing I will say about Georgia that 375 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: annoys me, Thor is that they seem to sleepwalk a 376 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: lot through the first half. And that is super annoying. 377 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: And look, you could probably do that against this Auburn team. 378 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: You probably can and still win and maybe even cover. 379 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,960 Speaker 1: But you know, you can't make this a habit. That's 380 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: what I've seen from Georgia so far is maybe a 381 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: little bit of sleepwalking through that first half because they 382 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 1: don't need to get serious until the second half. Because 383 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: they are so good. So your thoughts on this sec tilt. 384 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 3: Here, Yeah, I totally agree with that take. That's the 385 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,479 Speaker 3: thing that concerns you a little bit. Georgia hasn't been 386 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 3: covering this year. They haven't been covering their gifts. You 387 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 3: look at their cover point per game, like in the aggregate, 388 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 3: their scores against the spread, whatnot. Georgia's minus nine point 389 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 3: five points per game so far. That ranks one hundred 390 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 3: and twenty fourth in the nation. So to your point, yeah, 391 00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 3: I mean, certainly they are, you know, a contender to win, 392 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 3: you know, the third straight national title. They are a 393 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 3: decided front runner to qualify for the playoffs, in part 394 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 3: because their schedules so easy. But you have seen them 395 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 3: walk through these games, to your point, and in this one, 396 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 3: you're not too concerned about the opponent. So my concern 397 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 3: if I would buy a Georgia ticket in this game, 398 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:21,200 Speaker 3: is it's gonna be another thing like that where they 399 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 3: just sort of go in and roll the ball forward whatnot. 400 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,760 Speaker 3: Next week they have Kentucky. I'm not saying it's you know, 401 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 3: an overlook game or anything like that, but Kentucky is 402 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,600 Speaker 3: undefeated to this point, and you have to be a 403 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 3: little bit concerned about about that sleepwalking sort of thing, 404 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 3: like we're talking about. George's pass defense is awesome, Peyton 405 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 3: Thorn has not been the best. And when they bring 406 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 3: in Robbie, you know, through the air. When they bring 407 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 3: in Robbie Ashford, he's just sort of the run around guy. 408 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 3: So Auburn's not gonna be able to pass in this game. 409 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 3: But ken Auburn's rushing attack have any success against the 410 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 3: Georgia rush defense. That's seventy eighth in opportunity rate, eighty 411 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 3: first and success rate, and only forty fourth in rushing 412 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 3: success rate overall, which a cour down from those past 413 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 3: couple Georgia defenses where you just did not have any 414 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 3: conception whatsoever heading into the game that we're going to 415 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 3: run the ball. You just couldn't. They would just shut 416 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 3: down the lights on that. So those are the things 417 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 3: you're looking at here. I would go and offensively, Georgia 418 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 3: doesn't have much explosion either. My leaning this one, if 419 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 3: you're getting over the fourteen would be Auburn. My line 420 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 3: on this game is Georgia minus twelve point seven. So 421 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 3: I do think that there's a little bit of line 422 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 3: value there, and particularly with how Georgia has been against 423 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,399 Speaker 3: the spread and the sleepwalking thing, like we're talking about. 424 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 1: All right, let's stick in the sec in a game. 425 00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: I know you like here, Texas A and M a 426 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 1: six and a half point road favorite at Arkansas fifty 427 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,480 Speaker 1: five and a half is total tickets are on the Razorbacks, 428 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 1: cash is on the Aggies. The total here is pretty 429 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: firmly on the under. But I mean, can Arkansas stay 430 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 1: alive in this game? 431 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 3: I don't think so. I like gay and I'm quite 432 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 3: a bit in this one. My line is A and 433 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 3: M is nine point two. It looks as though, you know, 434 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 3: in college, as you know, Bagman, they don't give us 435 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,359 Speaker 3: the injury reports so early in the week when it's 436 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 3: an important player. You always just you're watching the press conference, 437 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 3: You're reading the quotes, You're looking at the beat writers 438 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:18,119 Speaker 3: and how they're indicating and whatnot. My read on this 439 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 3: is that Rockett Sanders is probably gonna be out again. 440 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,160 Speaker 3: Rocket Sanders did return to practice last week. Of course, 441 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 3: he didn't play in the game against LSU last weekend. 442 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 3: But the thing that Sam Pittman said earlier this week 443 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 3: when he's been asked about it, is like you know, 444 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 3: you know, the standard fare the coaches of like we're 445 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 3: hopefully he can be back and he's progressing and whatnot. 446 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 3: But I found it very interesting that Sam Pittman concede 447 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 3: it on Tuesday. Rocket has been back and he can 448 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 3: move north south fine, but he hasn't started cutting yet. 449 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 2: That's a big part of a running backs job. 450 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 3: Man. It's a problem. Yeah, Like if you're not if 451 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 3: you don't trust it enough to be sticking your foot 452 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 3: in the dirt and the quick cuts whatnot. I find 453 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 3: it hard to believe that. 454 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't give somebody a license if they can drive 455 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: straight real well, but they can't turn left or right 456 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:06,920 Speaker 1: and come on. 457 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 3: Well sides. 458 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,000 Speaker 2: Guy ain't playing indeed. 459 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,479 Speaker 3: So I think he's probably gonna be out barring a 460 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 3: you know, over the next forty eight hours some sort 461 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 3: of miracle with that. And assuming he is out, it 462 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,959 Speaker 3: goes back to the kJ Jefferson Show. We know what 463 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,360 Speaker 3: that's about now, Like kJ Jefferson. When you have them 464 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,919 Speaker 3: with Rocket that offense, at least it can keep you 465 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 3: off off balance and different stuff like that. When it 466 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:31,360 Speaker 3: becomes the kJ Jefferson Show, it's like kJ he has 467 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:33,959 Speaker 3: to carve out more in the running game and then 468 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,199 Speaker 3: the path. There's so much pressure on him against these 469 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 3: good opponents to win through the air. I don't think 470 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 3: that's going to work here against the Texas A and 471 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 3: M defense. It's number nine sp plus right now. The 472 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 3: other thing is in terms of the on field handicap 473 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:51,679 Speaker 3: here Arkansas's defense, it's really interesting where they are able 474 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 3: to generate heat. They're able to generate havoc by being 475 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:59,239 Speaker 3: super aggressive. But if you can stand up to that, 476 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 3: if you know, on any given play, if you can 477 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,400 Speaker 3: prevent them from getting into the backfield getting that pressure, 478 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 3: get the ball off with the look you want, whatnot? 479 00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 3: They get ripped for long plays all the time. So 480 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 3: it becomes can the opposing offensive line handle that sort 481 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 3: of pressure and that the hair on fire defensive style 482 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 3: that Arkansas has. Arkansas defense right now number two and 483 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 3: have it great, But the overall defense one hundred and 484 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 3: twelve in ISOPPP, which is a metric that measures the 485 00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 3: explosive plays. Arkansas's defense is also one hundred and fifth 486 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 3: in marginal explosiveness. So you look at A and M, 487 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 3: are they a kind of offense that can profile to 488 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 3: take advantage of that A and M right now number 489 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 3: twenty fifth overall sp plus offense, but twenty eighth in 490 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 3: isoppp number twenty fourth in big play rate, and A 491 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,160 Speaker 3: and M is number forty one and have a rate allowed. 492 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 3: So they you know, I think enough so they're gonna 493 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 3: be able to hold off that havoc, and once they do, 494 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 3: the explosive players are just going to be there for them. 495 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 3: And I think this regardless of whether, by the way, 496 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 3: speaking of another injury, Connor Wiegman plays or doesn't. I 497 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 3: could care less. I'm on A and M either way, 498 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 3: whether it's Max Johnson out there or whether it's Weakman. 499 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 3: This isn't a thing of like, oh, I only like 500 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 3: A and M if Weigman's playing. To me, it's a 501 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 3: negligible kind of difference. I mean, if you wanted to 502 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 3: argue to meet knock him down a half a point, 503 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 3: maybe I can sde that to you. I can't see 504 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 3: anyone knocking A and him down more than that. Max 505 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 3: Johnson is one of the best backup quarterbacks in the nation. 506 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 3: He's also one of the most experienced. People are going 507 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 3: to be surprised to hear this stat but I'll say it. 508 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,440 Speaker 3: It's true. You can look it up. Max Johnson's career 509 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 3: td I and T rate forty two to seven, forty 510 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 3: two to seven. This kid has been back there in 511 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: the pocket. He's not his mobile, you know. Weagman's a 512 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 3: little bit more athletic, So you are going to have 513 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 3: him back there against that Arkansas pass rush whatnot. But 514 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: A and M is a pretty good offensive line that 515 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 3: is going to be able to hold up. Johnson's going 516 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 3: to take a couple of sacks if it is indeed him, 517 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 3: but once you know, when that is addressed, he's going 518 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 3: to be able to hit those long shots. That kid 519 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,200 Speaker 3: has a really good arm. He's the son of the 520 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 3: former NFL quarterback Brad Johnson, and this kid's been starting 521 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 3: game since going back to the post championship year at LSU. 522 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:11,360 Speaker 3: I like A and M either way in this thing. 523 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 3: I would certainly play him up to seven and like 524 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 3: I said, my line on this thing is nine point two. 525 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 3: In fact, I scrap what I just said. I would 526 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 3: play and M up to nine and a half in 527 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 3: this game as long as this thing is anything in 528 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,400 Speaker 3: the single digits. I like the Aggies. 529 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,919 Speaker 1: By the way, Max Johnson is zero interceptions as an 530 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 1: Aggie obviously with more playing time with LSU also, But 531 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:33,159 Speaker 1: I just looked it up. 532 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe that's the one where you're lie. 533 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go, did he Was he reading the wrong 534 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: Max Johnson's Yeah? Now forty two to seven at twenty seven. 535 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 3: You have to give the cave yet, because it sounds 536 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,719 Speaker 3: like a lie that A and M's backup quarterback has 537 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 3: a forty two to seven career tdn T rate. But 538 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 3: it's totally true. And Max Johnson is a guy who 539 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 3: I mean, A and M is fortunate to have Max 540 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 3: Johnson because that guy could start for a minimum seventy 541 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,400 Speaker 3: programs in the FBS and probably more than. 542 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 2: That, right exactly. 543 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:06,199 Speaker 1: Well, Hey, look, have you guys downloaded the free Betting 544 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: pros app yet?

Look, 562 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: everyone's all over LSU here and the over? Is there 563 00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 1: an argument against that? I mean, ole Miss just did 564 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,880 Speaker 1: not look good last week? So what do we feel 565 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 1: in this LSU ole Miss game? 566 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 3: There is bagman, and I'm about to make it once 567 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 3: The rebels burned me last week, but I'm going back 568 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 3: on the train, and anyone out there that doesn't want 569 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,679 Speaker 3: to follow me this time around, I totally get it. 570 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 2: He can't get rid of her. That's it. 571 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 3: I wish I knew how to quit laying kiff, but 572 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,920 Speaker 3: I don't. Here's the argument for them, first of all, 573 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 3: just from the data perspective, my system has a line 574 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 3: on this game of ole Miss minus one and a half, 575 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 3: so it would suggest that the wrong team is favored. 576 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 3: Obviously we're pretty close here with the line being three 577 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 3: or whatever, but you have a little bit of value 578 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 3: with the home underdog just heading into the handicap, and 579 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 3: then let's start with the unfield handicap. LSU three and 580 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 3: one so far, but clearly a bit of a disappointment 581 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 3: in regards to what we felt they would be in 582 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,919 Speaker 3: the preseason. Everybody watched them get embarrassed and handled by 583 00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 3: Florida State the second half of that game when they 584 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 3: pulled away, and then last week that Rocket Sanders less 585 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 3: Arkansas team that we were just talking about, LSU only 586 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 3: got by them thirty eight to thirty five. It wasn't 587 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 3: terribly impressed with their performance there. The offense has been 588 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 3: what we thought. That's the one part of that team 589 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 3: where it's remained where the expectation was. They ranked the 590 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:26,239 Speaker 3: LSU offense number five SP plus. The defense, though, has 591 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 3: been a horrible disappointment, and the special team stink. The 592 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 3: defense this year forty seventh SP plus. They can be had. 593 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 3: That LSU defense and the special teams is ninety third. 594 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 3: Ole Miss. First of all, you have an enormous advantage 595 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 3: in the special teams in this game, but you also 596 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 3: the ole Miss offense going up against the LSU defense 597 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 3: is an enormous advantage for ole Miss in this game. 598 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 3: The Rebels number twenty ninth, marginal efficiency, number eleventh marginal 599 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 3: explosiveness on offense. LSU has been both giving up too 600 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 3: many explosive plays on defense. They also allow the opposing 601 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 3: offense just to stay on schedule. They just haven't figured 602 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 3: that out. Like you know, we've made the jokes about, 603 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 3: you know, they move Harold Perkins this way and that, 604 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 3: and some of the lack of continuity there, the game 605 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 3: planning type stuff. I don't like that defense at all. 606 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 3: I think the Rebels offense has a really big game here. 607 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 3: And while I do think that LSU is going to 608 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 3: be able to score, I just don't think they're gonna 609 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 3: be able to keep up with the scoring with the Rebels. 610 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: I once again, I like the Rebels in an upset, 611 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 3: so I'm gonna take the three points. I have a 612 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 3: money line ticket as well. 613 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,280 Speaker 1: I understand. Yeah, look, this game could go either way. 614 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: The thing that I don't like here is putting money 615 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: in the hands of Jaden Daniels. That is my thing 616 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: is that you don't know if you're getting Heisman Jayden 617 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: Daniels or you know, back ASU days Jayden Daniels. I 618 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: just from game to game, he kind of fluctuates a 619 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: bit too much for me to have a lot of 620 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: trust in him. 621 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, and Bagman to that point, like the games where 622 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 3: he is written through the air right, like you always 623 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 3: get the rushing element from him and stuff like that. 624 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 3: His passing stats, I would say, are a little bit 625 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 3: skewed because I watched the LSU Missippi State game and 626 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 3: Missippi State had the weirdest defensive strategy I've ever seen 627 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 3: In that game, especially against Jane. 628 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: He completed thirty of thirty four. He had an eighty 629 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: eight completion percentage then, and I can. 630 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 3: Tell you why, because Misissippi State kept two safeties like 631 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 3: they were like in the end zone they were so 632 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,959 Speaker 3: far back, and then with the cornerbacks, they were playing 633 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 3: off the receivers too, and so LSU just kept doing 634 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 3: short crosser stuff, particularly to mylite neighbors. Every single time 635 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 3: it was like Daniels gets a shotgun snap right away 636 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 3: to throw it right to my leak, you know, two 637 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 3: yards in front of the line of scrimmage and then 638 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 3: just watch him run. That was his passing. You know, 639 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 3: awesomeness that game, like I said, inflated. And then we 640 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 3: were talking about the Arkansas pass defense before where they 641 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 3: can be had as well. For the explosive plays in 642 00:30:58,080 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 3: this game. 643 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: You only had twenty completions for three hundred and twenty 644 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: yards last week in four scores. 645 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, talk about explosive plays. 646 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 3: Jeez, yeah, this game. So the I'm sorry, miss ABIs 647 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 3: defense thirty first sbplus overall, but top twenty five in 648 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 3: depriving explosive plays. So they're gonna make LSU work for 649 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 3: it and not work for it in the way of 650 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 3: we'll let Malik Neighbors be wide open within five yards 651 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 3: of the line of scrimmage every single play. They're actually 652 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 3: gonna make LSU work for it. So I like the 653 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 3: matchup of all Missus offense against LSU's defense more than 654 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 3: the one vice versa. And like I mentioned, Ole, miss 655 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 3: has the special team's edge. Two. 656 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 1: Let's go back to number eleven, as in men on 657 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: the field, you're supposed to have Notre Dame. 658 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 3: At Notre Dame fans they've already turned this thing off. 659 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 1: They don't want to hear it this week. I understand 660 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: at number seventeen, Duke fifty one and a half is 661 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: a total. Notre Dame is a five and a half 662 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: point road favorite. The tickets are on Notre Dame. The 663 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,360 Speaker 1: cash it's just slightly on Duke right before we started 664 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 1: recording this, but the tickets and money are both on 665 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: the under in this game. 666 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 2: Is that what you see here? 667 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:05,320 Speaker 3: Thorn? 668 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: Do you like an underplay? Do you like a side 669 00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: play here? What do you like in Notre Dame at Duke? 670 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 3: I would slightly lean towards Duke in terms of the 671 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 3: side My line is Notre Dame minus four point six. 672 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 3: My system, though it actually likes the over I'm not 673 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 3: sure that I would follow on that one, you know. 674 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 3: I mean it's not always the data, you know, you 675 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 3: got to get into the handicap whatnot. But Duke's offense, 676 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 3: of course, is able to do things to score on 677 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 3: even good defenses, like we've seen that so far. The 678 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 3: Clemson game is an example of this. They got they 679 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 3: got bailed up. Their defense got bailed out by Clemson's 680 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 3: offense in that game. But Riley Leonard had a good game, whatnot, 681 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 3: They'll be able to do some stuff here the side. 682 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 3: Like I said, I don't think that there's a ton 683 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 3: of value on it. But the why it's so hard 684 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 3: to stop Duke's offense is it's just crazy efficient. They're 685 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 3: number four success rate. And then on the other side, 686 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 3: Duke's defense totally takes away your explosive plays. Like obviously 687 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 3: Mike Elco is the coach, he will not allow the 688 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 3: opposing offense to get those explosive plays. Duke is number 689 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 3: one their defense and isoppp number two marginal explosiveness, number 690 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 3: five in explosive play rate. They're gonna make Notre Dame 691 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 3: work for it. Notre Dame has been able to generate 692 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:20,440 Speaker 3: some explosive offensive plays and certainly before the Ohio State game, 693 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:24,760 Speaker 3: so that's something to watch here. My one concern for 694 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 3: my chief concern I guess for the Duke side would 695 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 3: be their run defense. They do take away those explosive runs, 696 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 3: but one hundredth and rushing success rate, So I think 697 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 3: this is probably an over game in the Odrick estimate 698 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 3: in his prop market as far as the rushing arts go. 699 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 3: But like I said, Duke's offense can do enough where 700 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 3: I think that they'll be able to return a little 701 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 3: bit of fire here. These teams don't play at super 702 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 3: high paces either, so I think this is one where 703 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 3: I would lean towards Duke, but it's probably not going 704 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 3: to be a play for me. 705 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 1: All right, Let's go over to Michigan State at Iowa. 706 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 1: Iowa is a twelve and a half point home favorite, 707 00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: but the line is only third. The total, excuse me, 708 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:02,800 Speaker 1: is only thirty six and a half tickets of cash 709 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 1: on Iowa and the under. 710 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:06,560 Speaker 2: What a shock? 711 00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:09,439 Speaker 1: Iowa's in a game and people are betting on them 712 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,399 Speaker 1: and the under in a game. What a surprise here? 713 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: Thor are you any different? Or is this just an 714 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: easy Iowa and the under as well? 715 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 3: I don't know when you'll be able to better on 716 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:24,560 Speaker 3: Michigan State, if it'll be this season, But you have 717 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 3: that thing of like you want to bet against Michigan State, 718 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 3: but then you also have the opposing thing of Iowa 719 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 3: as a double digit favorite. So it's like, you know, 720 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 3: the the unstoppable force meets the you. 721 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:38,279 Speaker 1: Know, the stoppable force meets the movable object here, So 722 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:38,759 Speaker 1: here you go. 723 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, uncomb all sides of it. You're like, I definitely 724 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,799 Speaker 3: would not bet Michigan State. I do not see how 725 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 3: they generate offense against this awesome Iowa defense. But yeah, 726 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 3: it becomes can Iowa score any points? Last week? I 727 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 3: think against Fenn State Iowa, of course, they got shut out. 728 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:57,040 Speaker 3: I believe they had less than one hundred yards at 729 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 3: total offense. The funniest thing about that is I hit 730 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 3: my biggest bet of the year, which was a prop 731 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 3: bet on Eric All's over receiving yards. I hit that, 732 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 3: I believe on the second drive despite the fact that 733 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 3: Iowa generated very, very little yards. The rest of the game. 734 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:15,879 Speaker 2: Got it out of the way. You didn't have to sweat. 735 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 3: It exactly what that was, and then I could turn 736 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 3: the game off once once we got into with all 737 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 3: the great games that are on Saturday, I don't want 738 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 3: to watch that nonsense anymore. But yeah, you know, it 739 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,399 Speaker 3: just becomes about that. But one thing I would mention 740 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:31,239 Speaker 3: that is a little bit different. You know, at least 741 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 3: one other factor to add into the Iowa handicaps in 742 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,879 Speaker 3: terms of these games where they should win the game 743 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:42,160 Speaker 3: is in the past, the farances have been very classy 744 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 3: at the end of games. You know, they you know, 745 00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,319 Speaker 3: not only during the game, are you know, is it 746 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 3: more about the defense and the special teams and you 747 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 3: know they don't go bass to the wall with their offense. Yeah, yeah, 748 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 3: but also at the end of games. I've seen the 749 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 3: ferences in past years go out so far out of 750 00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 3: their way to not try to punch something in late. 751 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,919 Speaker 3: You know, they're like the opposite of like a Lane 752 00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:04,200 Speaker 3: Kiffen or a James Franklin as far as like looking 753 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 3: up at the spread and trying to cover it late. 754 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,360 Speaker 3: This year, we have already seen one game where that 755 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,959 Speaker 3: has been different, and I thought that was notable. When 756 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 3: Iowa could have kneeled the ball out against Western Michigan 757 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 3: and Brian Ferrence because of his contract stipulation they have 758 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 3: to average over twenty five points a game. That was 759 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 3: an opportunity where you could, and so he took it. 760 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 3: He decided to punch a ball a touchdown in late. 761 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 3: That would be the you know, one of those sort 762 00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 3: of small factors here where it's like, can Iowa cover 763 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 3: you know, eleven eleven and a half twelve points here 764 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 3: if this thing is late and i was up by 765 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:37,399 Speaker 3: ten and they have the ball on Michigan State side 766 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,439 Speaker 3: of the field. I think they're going to be trying 767 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,120 Speaker 3: to score in those final couple of minutes as a 768 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 3: boss of just kneeling it out. 769 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:43,479 Speaker 2: Yeah they should. 770 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: I mean, if it's part of your contract, and you know, 771 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 1: Farrence has the excuse built it. Everybody knows about this 772 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: thing built into his contract, so they they should know 773 00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: to expect him to try to score at the end. 774 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 2: It shouldn't be a secret at all. 775 00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 1: Number twelve, Alabama is a four teen point road favorite 776 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:02,400 Speaker 1: at Mississippi State. 777 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 2: Forty six is the total here? 778 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,760 Speaker 1: Not enough tickets on the total yet to generate anything, 779 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,879 Speaker 1: but the cash and tickets are back on Bama after 780 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:15,759 Speaker 1: they had a bad performance against South Florida and then 781 00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 1: Beatle Miss. Now we're back on Bama at Mississippi State. 782 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 2: How do you feel about this one? 783 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 3: These are two of my least favorite teams in the nation. 784 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,279 Speaker 3: I will probably be staying off this one. My line 785 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 3: on it's Alabama minus fourteen and a half. Is that 786 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 3: what you said it was live right now? Yeap? Or 787 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 3: is it four okay? Yeah? 788 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 2: Fourteen? 789 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,799 Speaker 3: I think fourteen? Okay? Yeah, I mean I guess you 790 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 3: could argue there's you know, maybe even just a slight 791 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 3: amount of value on Alabama. But you know, you have 792 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 3: the thing about they had the big win last week. 793 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,600 Speaker 3: Now you have to go to Starkville. Starkfield is a 794 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,919 Speaker 3: tough place to play. It's just that I absolutely hate 795 00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:57,040 Speaker 3: this Mississippi State team. Alabama also has a slight bit overlook. 796 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,640 Speaker 3: Next week they have to head to College Station, So 797 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:01,399 Speaker 3: maybe you could, you know, if you want, you could 798 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 3: mitigate that half a point of line value that I'm 799 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,439 Speaker 3: showing on them. But like I said, Missippi State, there's 800 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,759 Speaker 3: just a hard team to trust. You have a whole 801 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 3: bunch of pieces that were recruited for a diametrically opposite 802 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 3: skill on both sides of the ball. Then they're running now, 803 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 3: you know, on offense it's the air raid to the 804 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 3: Appalachian State system whatnot. And they have badly struggled because 805 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:23,239 Speaker 3: of that. Specifically on the offensive side of the ball. 806 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 3: Will Rodgers, who last year was thrown for you know, 807 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 3: three hundred and fifty plus yards a game, whatever it was. 808 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 3: This year, they can't get the passing game going whatsoever. 809 00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,799 Speaker 3: And there Jacavius Marks the running back there, he's been 810 00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,319 Speaker 3: decent and in fact, I would even say a little 811 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 3: bit better than I thought in terms of that sort 812 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 3: of straightforward running game, you know, moving him into that. 813 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:44,040 Speaker 3: But it's just a lot to ask him. The the 814 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 3: enormous amount of offensive load that they're just putting on. 815 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 3: Jkvis marks Alabama's defense pretty good number seven sp plus 816 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 3: you're so close to the margins here. I'm going to 817 00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,719 Speaker 3: be a bystander in this game. But if I had 818 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 3: to pick one, this probably be the only time this 819 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:02,479 Speaker 3: season I'll say it. But if I had to pick 820 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,399 Speaker 3: on one side, I would probably be on the Alabama side. 821 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: All right, Well, that is all the games that we 822 00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 1: plan to cover now tho, or of course at the 823 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:11,359 Speaker 1: end of the show, I will throw it to. 824 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 2: You any of the games. 825 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,160 Speaker 1: So you have a really good feeling about right now 826 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 1: that you want to tell everybody about. 827 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 3: How about I give all one other game on Friday night. 828 00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 3: We already gave all one with the Utah, We're gonna say, 829 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 3: and then maybe I'll give all one on Saturday, additional 830 00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 3: one the Friday Another Friday one I like is Louisville 831 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 3: laying the points against NC State. I got it a 832 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 3: two and a half. I don't know the live line 833 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,279 Speaker 3: we check if that has changed it all so I 834 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 3: don't miss State. Well, now it's up to three and 835 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 3: a half, but even at the three and a half, 836 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:44,359 Speaker 3: I think I would lay it with Louisville there. It's 837 00:39:44,360 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 3: another one of those games where I just think that 838 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,680 Speaker 3: they match up pretty well. The NC State team we 839 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 3: had a little bit higher houl so we're hoping, you know, 840 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 3: it wasn't like an alright projection because he had so 841 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:58,520 Speaker 3: many things changing, but that reuniting Brendan Armstrong the quarterback 842 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 3: with Robert and I his former offensive coordinator. They had 843 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 3: done damage at Virginia and whatever was the year before. 844 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 1: Last year, Virginia looked good. I'm mad at them. Yeah, yeah, 845 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: they played on the Louisville side. 846 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,920 Speaker 3: It was supposed to be the revenge game for Brennan Armstrong. 847 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 3: It turned into more of the revenge for Virginia. 848 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, Virginia, and they looked good in the whole. 849 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,319 Speaker 3: Absolutely could have won that game. And then late the kid, 850 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,920 Speaker 3: uh what's his the backup quarterback who's in now Calandria. 851 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:26,799 Speaker 3: I was trying to remember his name, but just a 852 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 3: young kid. And he makes a good play and his 853 00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 3: helmet gets knocked off and then he stands up and 854 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 3: he does like the the thing and they. 855 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:35,680 Speaker 1: Got believe they called that flag too. That was such 856 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 1: and like I was glad to happen because I had 857 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:40,760 Speaker 1: NC State, but they still didn't. 858 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:41,919 Speaker 2: I was so mad. 859 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:45,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, making Anthony Calandria look like Peyton Manning out there. 860 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 3: Just the the NC State offense. The problem with it is, 861 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,200 Speaker 3: you remember the last time when Armstrong was with a 862 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 3: night when that offense was good. It made Brennan Armstrong 863 00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,760 Speaker 3: because statistically he was awesome that year, but his receiving 864 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 3: corps was awesome. Like they had multiple NFL receivers on 865 00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,240 Speaker 3: there and different stuff like that. They had the NFL 866 00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 3: tight end on that offense as well. They could do 867 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 3: the quick hitting passing game. Even though unfortunately Brendan Armstrong 868 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:16,919 Speaker 3: is not a great thrower of the ball, he could 869 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 3: at least get the quick stuff out. And that Virginia team, 870 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 3: all their receivers in the tight end, like I said, 871 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 3: were very big, large guys like the tree kind of 872 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,440 Speaker 3: receivers whatnot. And they were athletics, so you could get 873 00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 3: them the ball short and even if the throw from 874 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 3: Armstrong was outside of their frame, they all had the 875 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,359 Speaker 3: big catch ratuses could go and get it. This NC 876 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 3: State team, their receiving corp is not nearly, not nearly 877 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:41,359 Speaker 3: as good as that Virginia's one was. And because of that, 878 00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:45,479 Speaker 3: you see more the limitations of Armstrong's game become way 879 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 3: more pronounced because he can't be pinpoint as a throw. 880 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,439 Speaker 3: He's just not. And he also lacks arm strength, right, 881 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:54,959 Speaker 3: and so the NC State offense they don't have any 882 00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 3: explosive element whatsoever. And then the passing game has all 883 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:00,160 Speaker 3: got to be the quick hitting stuff, but they don't 884 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 3: have the playmakers at receiver, so you have that stuff 885 00:42:03,160 --> 00:42:05,240 Speaker 3: going on, and then NC State doesn't have any running 886 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 3: game whatsoever outside of Brennon Armstrong just running around and 887 00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,920 Speaker 3: trying to manufacture yourself. He's there running back as well, basically, 888 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:16,000 Speaker 3: But the problem is that you become pretty predictable, right, Like, 889 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,239 Speaker 3: we're only going to throw these quick hitting things to 890 00:42:18,320 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 3: mediocre receivers, and then you know, outside of that, we're 891 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 3: going to try to generate efficiency with Armstrong running outside 892 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 3: the pocket whatnot. Louisville's defense, first of all, projects to 893 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,479 Speaker 3: deal with that pretty well. The Louisville defense is number 894 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 3: thirty eight SPPLUS overall. Right, Now, that defense has been 895 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 3: really good at every facet of the game except for one. 896 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 3: They give up way too many explosive passes. That is 897 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 3: not gonna be a problem. It gets Brennan Armstrong, They're 898 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 3: not They don't generate explosive passes. So even though you 899 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 3: can get Louisville with that, NC State is not gonna 900 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,799 Speaker 3: be able to do that. And then I really like 901 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 3: the Louisville offense. Some of the games that have been 902 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:56,720 Speaker 3: the more high profile that you know, they're where Louisville 903 00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 3: has been on by themselves. There's been times where it's 904 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,239 Speaker 3: been a little bit slow to get going, but you 905 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:03,439 Speaker 3: look at like the aggregate stats of it. Their top 906 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 3: twenty five run success rate, number top twenty five rushing explosion, 907 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 3: top twenty five pass success rate, top twenty five passing explosion. 908 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 3: They can do all that sort of stuff. The run 909 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:16,319 Speaker 3: game in particular has been nasty number five success rate, 910 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 3: number twenty explod explosion. And you have to respect their 911 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 3: deep passing game because Plumber can get it over the top. 912 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:24,839 Speaker 3: And they have weapons out there, you know, starting with 913 00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 3: Thrash Coleman. They have guys that can get downfield and 914 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 3: make those plays. NC State's defense only forty fifth sp 915 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,320 Speaker 3: plus and that defense particularly has a weakness for allowing 916 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,400 Speaker 3: explosive plays. We'll pack our one hundred and ninth isopp 917 00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 3: on defense, the explosive play metric, and one hundred and 918 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:44,839 Speaker 3: eighteenth of marginal explosiveness. Louisville is going to be able 919 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,319 Speaker 3: to rip off those explosive plays all game long. NC 920 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 3: State categorically cannot do that. I really like Louisville in 921 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 3: that game that's a Friday Night or that I was 922 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 3: talking about. 923 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:57,919 Speaker 1: And everyone who's wondering who those big targets were for. 924 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 1: But an Armstrong. If you're watching games, you don't know 925 00:44:00,880 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 1: who Dontavian Wicks is. Mister ware catches twelve hundred and 926 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: three yards nine scores that year. 927 00:44:07,200 --> 00:44:09,840 Speaker 2: So that's where he comes from from. Virginia. 928 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 1: Good thing, yeah with Armstrong when they were teammates, But 929 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 1: no Wicks. 930 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 2: They're in NC State. 931 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,759 Speaker 3: No, no, yeah, no Wicks, and yeah, they just don't 932 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:23,280 Speaker 3: have the weapons out there. A Saturday game for you guys, 933 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:27,720 Speaker 3: I'm going with Cincinnati at BYU. You know, I watched 934 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,080 Speaker 3: a good bet of course at the BYU game last 935 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,879 Speaker 3: week because they were playing rock Chock b Yu. They're 936 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 3: they're they're interesting in that on defense they can get 937 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 3: after the quarterback a bit, and on offense the one 938 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 3: thing they can do is throw it down field a 939 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,600 Speaker 3: little bit, but only when they're able to block the 940 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 3: team in front of them. By first of all, as 941 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 3: you know, Bodman Slovas is lead footed. He doesn't move 942 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 3: around well anyway, and so he's not leaving the pocket. 943 00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 3: I think they're one hundred and thirty first and scrambles 944 00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 3: per drop back by us, but they've been allowing a 945 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 3: ton of pressures and a lot of sacks as well. 946 00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 3: That's where this becomes I think a good matchup for Cincinnati. 947 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:13,320 Speaker 3: So BYU is one hundred and twentieth in havoc rate allowed, 948 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 3: not good obviously, Cincinnati's defense thirty third sp plus overall, 949 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,800 Speaker 3: but twenty fourth in havoc rate, twenty fourth in sacks 950 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:25,600 Speaker 3: per dropback. That's good in this matchup against Slovas, and 951 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,359 Speaker 3: Cincinnati's defense is number seven in pass down sack rate. 952 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 3: So when BYU gets into those third and long kind 953 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 3: of scenarios, Keaton Slovas is going to be a bit 954 00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 3: of a sitting duck back there, and they're going to 955 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,840 Speaker 3: get into those because unfortunately for the BYU offense, they 956 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,359 Speaker 3: can't really run the ball. I don't really know what 957 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 3: BYU is doing in terms of their running game, if 958 00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 3: I'm being honest. I liked when they signed the UNLV 959 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 3: running back Aiden Baskin Robbins. When they brought him over, 960 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 3: he had a top ten broken tackle per rushing attempt 961 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 3: percentage last year. And so then he goes to BYU. 962 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 3: You're expecting him to take They have barely looked his way. 963 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 3: The kid that they're using in there, he's been okay, 964 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,359 Speaker 3: but like in terms of the efficiency numbers, in terms 965 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 3: of the per carry type stuff, it's way down there. 966 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 3: And that puts all the more pressure on Keeton Slovas 967 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:15,600 Speaker 3: and it makes them all the more predictable. And when 968 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 3: you're facing a team that has a good pass rush 969 00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 3: going up against a mediocre BYU offensive line, those are 970 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 3: the games where BYU it's not an advantageous matchup for them. 971 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,880 Speaker 3: I don't love Cincinnati's offense, I will say that, but 972 00:46:27,960 --> 00:46:31,239 Speaker 3: they can address that BYU pass rush enough I think 973 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:34,160 Speaker 3: to be able to carve out offense, to carve out 974 00:46:34,200 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 3: the yards and then get move the sticks and get 975 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 3: closer to those scoring opportunities whatnot. I like Cincinnati getting 976 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:42,320 Speaker 3: the three points or so in this game. 977 00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 2: All right, Well, that will wrap it up for us 978 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 2: this week.
