Coaches are arriving 3 00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:12,399 Speaker 1: in their new host playoff teams are preparing for their 4 00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 1: upcoming matchups, while others are getting ready to go bowling. 5 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 1: Baby Wolf, of course, take an early look at those 6 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: CFP Round one games and make our official picks and 7 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: predictions for the first wave of bowl games. I'm your host, 8 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,320 Speaker 1: Seth Wilcock, coming off with rather disappointing two and three 9 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: championship weekend, and I'm joined by a man who is 10 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 1: ready to put his best foot forward after once calling 11 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: two G five teams in the playoff quote fan of fiction, 12 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: he's got big time Boggin Boggs. How are you as 13 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,599 Speaker 1: mid December and the postseason are upon us. 14 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 2: I mean, I was surprised that it happened, but I mean, look, 15 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 2: it's just the way that it goes, right, So you're 16 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 2: absolutely correct. I was mistaken, and in my mind I 17 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 2: had just put the ACC champion in there, and I 18 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: also thought it was fan fiction because I thought, oh, well, 19 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 2: no way, Duke's gonna win this game. Virginia is gonna win, 20 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: and they choked. I had a bad conference championship week 21 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 2: after like a good you know, two to three weeks 22 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,680 Speaker 2: leading up to it. But we're gonna get better in 23 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 2: bowlseason here, and I like these balls now. And by 24 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 2: the way, some of these massive mismatches make for easy 25 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,319 Speaker 2: picks here, So yeah, I agree. 26 00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: And I think it was a big missed opportunity for 27 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: me because I've been spewing on this how jam you 28 00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 1: could get to the playoffs. They were sitting out there 29 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,679 Speaker 1: ten to one for a few weeks now and I 30 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: didn't get on them. 31 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 3: So shame on me. I gotta keep my head on swivel. 32 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 2: Don't let me bully you next time. Yeah, go with you, guy, 33 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: don't let me bully you. 34 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: So well, we'll see today if you can bully me 35 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: in or away from any lines.

First, 66 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: we saw Kennisas State survive Jacksonville State nineteen fifteen in 67 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: the CUSA Championship game Number twenty five James Madison. They 68 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: beat Troy thirty one to fourteen for the Sun Belt 69 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,639 Speaker 1: Championship title. However, they did not cover in that one. 70 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: Number twenty two Lane. They beat number twenty four North 71 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: Texas thirty four to twenty one for the American Boise 72 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: State gets the best of un LV again thirty eight 73 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: twenty one for the Mountain West Championship. And then Western 74 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 1: Michigan they mowed down Miami, Ohio twenty three to thirteen 75 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: at Ford Field in the MAC Championship game. Number four 76 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: Texas Tech. They complete the season sweep of number eleven 77 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: BYU thirty four to seven for the Big twelve title. 78 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: Number three Georgia they absolutely whacked number nine Alabama twenty 79 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: eight to seven in the SEC Championship. And then Duke 80 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: cosim Kaos winning twenty seven to twenty over number seventeen 81 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: Virginia and the ACC Championship. 82 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: That game got really tight and fun at the end. 83 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: And then number two Indiana they have remained perfect, had 84 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: an injury scare on the first drive, first play for 85 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: Nando Mendoza. He comes back in leads them thirteen to 86 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: ten over number one Ohio State in the Big Ten 87 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: championship game. Bogs betting risers and followers from the action 88 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:15,559 Speaker 1: and he surprises. 89 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, there were a lot of surprises. I was surprised 90 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: Ohio State didn't beat Indiana. That was pretty shocking, I felt, 91 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 2: you know. And it was a great game and the 92 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 2: yardage was close. Ohio States offenses couldn't move the ball 93 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 2: against Indiana. Really, it was three hundred and twenty two yards, 94 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 2: four of twelve on third downs, only seventeen first downs 95 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 2: saying through a pick. It was just it was a 96 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 2: low scoring gross It felt like an outdoor game that 97 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 2: was indoors, right. That's kind of how I felt about 98 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 2: that one. Not surprised at Georgia beat Bam. I just 99 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 2: think the level of football that those two squads have 100 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 2: been playing, that was the way that was going to go. 101 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 2: I was shocked Duke beat Virginia. Now you have all 102 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 2: the incentive to go and ruin someone else's season. I 103 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: could not believe Virginia choked that game. That was a 104 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 2: tough one. We got exactly what we thought out of 105 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 2: Texas Tech and BYU. I don't think either one of 106 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 2: us really had a thought that BYU was going to 107 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 2: be in that game. And Texas Tech is clearly a 108 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: top four team. So can their offense hold up in 109 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 2: the tournament? That's going to be the question. I was 110 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,719 Speaker 2: surprised that I got some of these G five games correct. 111 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 2: I was surprised that I got Kennessaw State because you 112 00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: were on Jacksonville State, and as soon as you said 113 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: Jacksonville State, I went, ugh, maybe I should have gone 114 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 2: with Jacksonville State because you know these schools a little 115 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: bit better. But I whipped on North Texas. We both did, 116 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: like Jake rets laugh, was just awesome. 117 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: They had one foot out the door. I think hen 118 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 1: is still water. Honestly, North Texas, you're right to show up. 119 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: You're right. And then I was shocked at UNLV again. 120 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: This un l V versus Boise State feels like Texas 121 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 2: against Georgia to me right now, like they just have 122 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 2: their number. They can't get past that. 123 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 3: The Mountain West Championship game, man. 124 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, and that is uh again, they do 125 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,919 Speaker 2: it again. And then to see Jmu beat down Troy 126 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 2: and not cover was upsetting but not surprising, right, Like 127 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: Troy showed up a little bit, but it's still four 128 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 2: hundred and eleven yards to one hundred and seventy seven. 129 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 3: It was got there at the end, they were on 130 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 3: the twelve yard line. 131 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: We also had Troy have all their timeouts, and I 132 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: was thinking they were going to try to use them, 133 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: so jam you would have to try to get in 134 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: the end zone more time. And then they just you know, 135 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: they called mercy role pretty much, stop calling the timeouts. Jami, 136 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: you just kneeled it away. But we're about ten yards 137 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: away from covering, So I was excited to at least 138 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: be you know, within play that last tackle. 139 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 2: You text me actually after that last tackle on the 140 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 2: sideline because if he wiggles out of that tackle, he's 141 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 2: in yep. So we were of course watching that with 142 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 2: baited breath for us. But it's a game of inches, 143 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 2: even embedding. So good weekend, not for the result, but 144 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 2: I also kind of think they got this playoff somewhat correct, right, 145 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 2: So it's it's not the twelve best teams, but it 146 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 2: never was going to be the twelve best teams, right, 147 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 2: you were going to have that automatic bid anyway. And 148 00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 2: since the ACC kicked each other around this entire season 149 00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 2: and no one really rose to the cream of the crop, right, 150 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,000 Speaker 2: it wasn't surprising to see Duke win this game in 151 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 2: a conference it's so close, So. 152 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: Play stupid games with your tie breakers, win stupid prizes. 153 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: That's how I They gotta fix that one hundred percent, 154 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 2: and they'll fix that in this offseason for sure. I also, 155 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,680 Speaker 2: you know, I don't understand this bowing out of bowl game, 156 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 2: cry baby nonsense conference. 157 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 3: If you want to start, quit crying. 158 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 2: And also, you know, I saw and I know a 159 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 2: lot of people don't like Emmanuelacho. I understand that Texas 160 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: guy I like, but him and Sam both played at Texas, 161 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 2: loved theos. But he was right in what he said recently. 162 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: He said, Look, it's not just the football team, it's cheer, 163 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 2: it's color guard, it's banned, it's all the parents for 164 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 2: the seniors didn't know that that was the last game 165 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 2: that their kids were gonna play. So I just think 166 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 2: this is a really bad move by Notre Dame. I 167 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,000 Speaker 2: think it's a cry baby move and I really don't 168 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 2: like it, Like with Chris Climb and retiring with Matt 169 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 2: Campbell leaving in the process. I don't like those either, 170 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,239 Speaker 2: I'll say that, but they're more understandable. And those teams 171 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 2: are still getting fined a hefty amount. I have no 172 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 2: idea if Notre Dame. 173 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 3: Is, I don't think there's anything to find them. 174 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: I don't. 175 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, they have no conference, right, so they got you know, 176 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 2: because those schools got fined by the Big Twelve. So 177 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 2: and I also I tell you what else happened this 178 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 2: week is the Big Twelve is going to adopt the 179 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 2: ACC replay review, which I love. I think every single 180 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,199 Speaker 2: place should do that. Yeah, the NFL should do it, 181 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 2: every single conference should do it. It's just more transparency, specifically 182 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,199 Speaker 2: in this land of cambling. I think is very smart. 183 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, a ton of head coaching movement over the past 184 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 3: couple of weeks as well. 185 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: We just gott Moore right before we started. 186 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 3: It is a lot of things going down. 187 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 1: And before we get out of the conference championship game recap, 188 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: I just want to say, like shout to our friends 189 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: over at Western Michigan man Maction for life. 190 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 3: That was. 191 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: That was like the least sweaty game of the week 192 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: for US, so I really appreciate them coming through for US. 193 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 1: So maction Man had a really good season betting on 194 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: the MAC, probably better than any other conference, so I 195 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: can appreciate that, especially after getting to off to kind 196 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: of a bad start there, laying a ton of points 197 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: with Buffalo against I think it was Kent State in 198 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: like week two and that backside, So yeah, really really 199 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 1: fun week. You and I should have probably also bet 200 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: that under that we are leaning towards in the IU 201 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: Ohio State game. I know we talked about that and 202 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: neither one of us went to that, so I think 203 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,559 Speaker 1: just something to look back on those defenses. I think 204 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: do outweigh the offense is just a little bit but 205 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: love this time in the sport. 206 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 3: Man so fun. 207 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 2: Who's gonna win the Heisman? 208 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 3: Oh it's Mendoz after that Hunt, I think so too. 209 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I have a Jeremiah Love eighty to 210 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: one ticket from preseason. 211 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 3: I would love for. 212 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: Him to cash, but it's not happening. So uh, let's 213 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: go Fernando. 214 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,679 Speaker 3: I like that kid's moxy. I like to cut of 215 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 3: his jim and. 216 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 2: I saw a scattering report for him, and it was pros, 217 00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 2: it was everything, and then CON's he's a dork. I 218 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 2: was like, that was a I mean, it's pretty accurate. 219 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 2: So good kid, good quarterback. 220 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: So now with the bracket set, though, Bucks, let's go 221 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: ahead and get into the early picks and line movement 222 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: predictions for the CFP first round matchups. We're gonna start 223 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: in Norman, where the books are scattered all around on 224 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: this one for a Friday, December nineteenth matchup, listing the 225 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,199 Speaker 1: number nine Alabama Crimson Tide anywhere from one and a 226 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 1: half point favorites to one and a half point underdogs 227 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 1: against the eighth ranked Oklahoma Sooners. 228 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 3: Bama, they come off an. 229 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: SEC championship game against Uga where they were really never 230 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: in it, losing twenty eight to seven. That drops them 231 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: to ten and three ats and straight up. One of 232 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 1: those losses did come to the Sooners on November fifteenth, 233 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: losing twenty three to twenty one. Ty Simpson, he has 234 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: fallen off quite a lot inefficiency as of late man 235 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: and the running back room. They continue to struggle a 236 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: little bit. Jam Miller. He has banged up Ryan Williams. 237 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 1: I talked about it last week. This guy's kind of 238 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: a ghost right now. And we also have them rolling 239 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,760 Speaker 1: in with a top twenty three passing offense and a 240 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: top twelve scoring and total defense. Oh you Meanwhile, they 241 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: were off this past weekend, but in rivalry week they 242 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: barely got by LSU. I know you were probably hoping 243 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 1: that they would lose that one. Maybe put Texas into 244 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: the dance? Did that drop them to seven to five 245 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 1: ats ten to three? Straight up and getting after the 246 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: quarterback at a nation high clip converting one hundred percent 247 00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: of their red zone possessions into scores has carried this 248 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 1: team really throughout the season, especially as John Mattier continues 249 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 1: to turn the ball over at three interceptions against the 250 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 1: Tigers a few weeks ago. 251 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 3: So bogs. Both these teams are obviously pretty flawed right 252 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 3: coming into the postseason. 253 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: But regardless, one of them will have a date with 254 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: Number one Indiana in the quarterfinals. 255 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 3: Any early lead on who that may be. 256 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go with Alabama in this game. And 257 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 2: I know this is a tough road game in Norman. 258 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 2: That place is going to be rocking. It's going to 259 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 2: be a lot of fun to see football there in December. 260 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 2: Going to be a blast but you know, I know 261 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 2: they lost the last match up to Oklahoma, and you know, 262 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: but they did put a four hundred and six yards 263 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 2: in that game. They held Oklahoma at two hundred and twelve. 264 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: They possessed the ball for thirty four to twenty eight 265 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:14,439 Speaker 2: to twenty five thirty two. OHU had six punts five penalties. 266 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 2: That was four punts and two penalties for Bama in 267 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: this game. Oh you was three for thirteen on third downs. 268 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 2: They only had twelve first downs the entire game. Bama 269 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 2: had the three turnovers. That is what changed the fates 270 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 2: of that game because the box score, you look at 271 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 2: a team that dominated yardage and time of possession. That 272 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 2: was Bama by a lot, Right, So I feel like 273 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,960 Speaker 2: Bama is going to play a much more efficient game 274 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 2: this second time around. It's what we see. A lot 275 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,679 Speaker 2: of mistakes are made. Obviously, it's hard to beat the 276 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 2: same team twice. Ask Virginia. They'll tell you sure. But 277 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 2: you know this happens all the time in college sports 278 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 2: when a team has to meet in the conference championship. 279 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 2: We just saw with Alabama and Georgia, right, Bama won 280 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 2: that first matchup. Georgia adjusted and won, So I don't 281 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 2: think that Bama is playing their best foot ball. I 282 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 2: understand that, which makes this game a little bit closer 283 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 2: than I like. Yeah, Oklahoma is a very scary defense. 284 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 2: They can get those turnovers as well, but I think 285 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 2: you have extra time to prep here, you have time 286 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 2: to cut down on those mistakes. I feel like Bama 287 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 2: is the better team, and I do think they'll advance. 288 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna take Bama just on the money line 289 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 2: right now. If I can get them plus points, then okay, 290 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 2: but I don't think it matters, So give me Bama 291 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 2: in the money line. 292 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 1: Do you think if you want Bama you should be 293 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,559 Speaker 1: taking now though, because they are out there as underdogs 294 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 1: or favorites really anyway you want to go with this one? 295 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 1: Obviously you would take the underdog at a point and 296 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 1: a half if you want them. So do you think 297 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,559 Speaker 1: we no longer see Bama underdog tickets at some point 298 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: next week? 299 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, I think the betting is going to go 300 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 2: towards Alabama, But right now I don't know that we 301 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 2: have Yeah, we don't have enough ticket info yet to 302 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 2: tell us which way this is going, but the fact 303 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 2: that it's you know, now, the Sooners are plus one 304 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 2: and a half when they start out is one and 305 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 2: a half point favorites in most books. I think that 306 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 2: is the way it's going. So I do think if 307 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 2: you want Bama plus points, take it where you ever 308 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 2: you can get it now, because a week from now 309 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 2: it's not gonna be available. 310 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, this might be a game I have to like 311 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: tease the under or something and boost that up and 312 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: put it with something else because we are gonna have 313 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: an end game live first half betting coverage show here 314 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 1: on the ben pros YouTube channel and on the Fantasy 315 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: Pro Twitch channel, So I'm gonna have to have a 316 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: play in this game going into it, Bogs, I'm just 317 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 1: not sure exactly what way I want to go. I'm 318 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: actually like a little scared. I definitely don't think I 319 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: can be on the Bama side, just with what I've 320 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 1: seen from them over the past several weeks. I mean, 321 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: Oklahoma hasn't necessarily inspired me either, but their defense is 322 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: certainly still there, and I feel like Bama's offense kind 323 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:41,600 Speaker 1: of starting to leak a little bit of oil. So 324 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: I think I might try to tease this up as 325 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 1: much as I can see if this total continues to 326 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: go up, which I think it could be if people 327 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: are gonna continue to bet it, So that's kind of 328 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: probably be the way I'm gonna approach this one. But 329 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 1: you know, we'll have another show next week with our 330 00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: official picks and predictions, and then again BOXX really looking 331 00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,960 Speaker 1: forward to that live stream on Friday night for this one. 332 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 2: It's gonna be fun. 333 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 3: Man. 334 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,960 Speaker 2: Those live streams are always fun. I did one with 335 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 2: Joe last year. I do one every Thursday on ITL, 336 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 2: so it's streaming and talking football during the game is 337 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 2: a lot of fun. 338 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 3: Man, can't beat a baby. 339 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: Only thing that will make that a little bit better 340 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: is beer, right, talking with. 341 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 3: Your friends and beer. 342 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 1: Those are the three things that I look forward to 343 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 1: just about every single weekend. Let's go ahead, though, Let's 344 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: move to Saturday at noon where the tenth ranked Miami 345 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 1: Hurricanes they roll into College Station to face off with 346 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: the seventh rank Texas A and at Maggie's as three 347 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: and a half point underdogs. Miami they can think BYU 348 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: for getting blown out in the Big twelve championship game 349 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: that moved them next to Notre Dame, where the head 350 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: to head came into play. They then jumped over the 351 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: Irish to get into the dance. They're ten and two 352 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: straight up and ATS. Their outright losses came to Louisville 353 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 1: and at SMU earlier in the season. 354 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 3: Their quarterback Carson Back. This guy's been super hit or 355 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 3: miss really his whole career that continued for the U. 356 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 1: He leads the acc and completion percentage, but also in 357 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: interceptions as well. He does, however, have acc Rookie of 358 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: the Year Malachai Tony as disposal and this kid has 359 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: been a superstar. 360 00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 3: Man Ruben Bain and also Key Mesador. 361 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: These guys have become one of the best fronts in 362 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: the country, putting the U seventh in rushing defense sixteenth 363 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: in total defense as well A and M. They took 364 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 1: their only outright loss of the season last time out 365 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,200 Speaker 1: against Texas, falling to eleven and one straight up five 366 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: and seven ATS. Their quarterback Marcel Reid, who he was 367 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: on a podcast this week saying, hey, if someone throws 368 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 1: more money at me, and I have talked to my 369 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: parents about what I want to do. But anyway, he 370 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: leads the sec in yards per completion and that's thanks 371 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: in part due to the stud wide receivers. Casey concepts 372 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: Giano transferred in and Mario Craver as well. Their twentieth 373 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 1: in total offense, nineteenth in total defense, but they can't 374 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 1: struggle with being undisciplined in the penalties and turnover department. 375 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 3: So Boggs, this is another spot where neither team is perfect. 376 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: But I think they have a ton of playmakers on 377 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball. So what's your early read 378 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: and what's your thought on the potential line movement we 379 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: might see. 380 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, this one is It's the It's the only other 381 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 2: first round game that has a tough pick, right. I 382 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 2: think the other two are extremely easy. We won't have 383 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 2: to go super deep into those games, but in this game, 384 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 2: this one is tough. Miami is six in scoring defense. 385 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 2: We saw Marcel Reid look a little rough in his 386 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 2: last game against Texas with happy feed he's sailing a 387 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 2: little bit of throws. So I think I'm gonna be 388 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 2: on the Miami side here. Bain and Mesdor are going 389 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 2: to challenge the Aggie's offensive line. But left tackle Trey 390 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,359 Speaker 2: Zoon he's been the best blocking offensive tackle in the 391 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,960 Speaker 2: nation according to PFF grades, and he's only allowed one 392 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 2: sack all year and has had zero penalties, so he's 393 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 2: gonna be tough to get around no matter who is 394 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 2: over there. But however, the rest of the old line 395 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 2: has only allowed two sacks, but they've been penalized a 396 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 2: ton and they've allowed a lot of pressure. Right, So 397 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 2: the rest of the line is not as good as Zoom, 398 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 2: but the line is pretty strong. I think this should 399 00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 2: be a tight one. I feel like Miami is a 400 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 2: better team in as long as I'm going to get 401 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,959 Speaker 2: the hook on the three and a half, I'm going 402 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 2: to take Miami here. I'm going to be on the canes. 403 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: Beck can lose this game. As you mentioned, he's been very, 404 00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,520 Speaker 2: very hit or miss in his career, and he definitely 405 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 2: can lose this game. But he's been in big time 406 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,720 Speaker 2: spots before they've come through. They've had extra time to 407 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 2: prepare for this game. Maybe it's just wishful thinking because 408 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 2: of course I picked against Oklahoma and I'm picking against 409 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 2: ANM here. I understand that everyone needs to take that 410 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 2: with a grain of shirt when it's the Texas fan 411 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 2: picking against A and M and Oklahoma here. But I 412 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 2: just I feel like A and M was exposed against 413 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 2: Texas and Miami should have never been a question to 414 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 2: get in. But again, like I said last week, don't 415 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 2: lose SMU, then you don't want to be a question 416 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 2: and don't lose SMU and fix the weird tiebreaker stuff 417 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 2: in your conference right. So I wouldn't have minded if 418 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 2: Miami did not make it right and they have put 419 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 2: Notre Dame and would have made any difference to me. 420 00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 2: I bet Miami would have showed up for their game, 421 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,359 Speaker 2: by the way, But the fact that the games have 422 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,680 Speaker 2: been in playoff mode probably since that SMU game, and 423 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 2: I heard Jdpickl talk about that. I think that was 424 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 2: a great point that the playoff mindset that they've had 425 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 2: since that SMU game, I think just helps them on 426 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,360 Speaker 2: get stepping into the playoffs here. They've had that mindset 427 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,360 Speaker 2: for a while. Now AM hasn't had that right. They 428 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 2: had the hey, look we're cruising, we're undefeated. All we 429 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,159 Speaker 2: got to do is beat Texas to get the SEC 430 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 2: title game, and that blew up in their face. So 431 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 2: I think this one might two and m is favorite 432 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,400 Speaker 2: because they're at home, which gives us the points. I'm 433 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 2: taking those points at three and a half. 434 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I will probably end up being on 435 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,359 Speaker 1: Miami in this one because like initial first look when 436 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: the lines were dropped Bogs, I was like, all right, 437 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,320 Speaker 1: like I trust the SEC over the ACC. But then 438 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: you think, like, mine doesn't really play like an ACC 439 00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: team this year, right, They're kind of like an SEC 440 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: like team with that defensive front. Their offensive line isn't 441 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 1: half bad either, And like if I could bet player 442 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 1: props Malachai. 443 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 3: TONI, I think it's gonna have a huge game because 444 00:19:59,000 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 3: I don't think A and. 445 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 2: M zero drops this here. Yeah, I not one. 446 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:04,239 Speaker 1: I just don't think that A and M secondary can 447 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 1: keep up with him, right, He is explosive and like 448 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: at the same time too, Like you kind of pointed 449 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,880 Speaker 1: it out, like Miami they have a guy in Carson Beck. 450 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,239 Speaker 1: While he's not the best in big spots, he's at 451 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: least been in big spots before. And how many times 452 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: have we seen a team take a late season loss 453 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 1: heading into a conference championship game or into a playoff 454 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: like this and then they just drop a second one 455 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: in their seasons done? Right? 456 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 3: So I think I think Miami's playing with house money, right. 457 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 3: They're not even supposed to be here. 458 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 2: Right, right, They're not supposed to be here today, and 459 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 2: by the way, that line for Miami against Cashus Howell 460 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 2: and you know, we've talked talked about this A and M. 461 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 2: Number one team in the country in sacks per game, 462 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 2: you know, or I don't know if they finished there. Yes, 463 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 2: they did three point four two so per game, so 464 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 2: number one. But this is the second highest graded blocking 465 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 2: offensive line in the country for Miami. So I think 466 00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 2: they have issues putting pressure on Beck. I think the 467 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 2: right side of the line is the problem for A 468 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 2: and M. We saw that against Texas. I think those 469 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 2: are the those are the weak points that I find 470 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 2: for A and M. To knock them. They're a very 471 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 2: good team, they're at home. They could easily win this game. 472 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 2: If Carson Beck makes those massive mistakes that we've seen 473 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 2: him make, then they will lose this game. But he 474 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 2: is a veteran, he's been in the spot before, he's 475 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 2: gone through it, He's had a million starts. I expect 476 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:25,680 Speaker 2: him to have a good game. 477 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 3: Here is three and a half the best number we're 478 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 3: going to get. You think on Miami. 479 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 2: Absolutely, I think if you want to get that, you 480 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,479 Speaker 2: need to get it pretty soon. I think it's going 481 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 2: to go the way of Miami because I don't. I 482 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 2: gotta be honest, I don't think I've heard many people 483 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 2: picking A and M in the public. 484 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, so good point. 485 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,199 Speaker 2: I think this line is going to flip towards the 486 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 2: Canes and you're gonna lose that hook pretty quick. Here. 487 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: I saw one young lad on YouTube this past week. 488 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 1: He actually simmed the college football playoff and Miami was 489 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: the winner. 490 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 3: So hey, wow, yeah the whole yet the whole winner, So. 491 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 2: I think they get drummed down in the next round. 492 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 1: Folks, make sure you're downloading the free Betting Pros app 493 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: today so you can track these bets and get line 494 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: alert straight to your mobile device.

As the number six Ole Miss Rebels, they 505 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: host their first college Football Playoff game as seventeen to 506 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: seventeen and a half point favorites over the eleventh seed 507 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 1: two lane Green Wave Lane Kiffen. He has allowed four 508 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: assistant coaches to return to Oxford to join new coach 509 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: Pete god Holding in preparation for this game. This comes 510 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: after a very dominating egg Bull performance to get them 511 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: to eleven and one straight up seven. 512 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:08,879 Speaker 3: To five ats the ReBs. 513 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 1: They roll out a top three passing offense, led of 514 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: course by Tran Dad cham Bliss. 515 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 3: Their backfield, they got Kawan. 516 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 1: Lacyne, who leads the SEC in touchdowns, rush attempts, and 517 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:20,719 Speaker 1: plays from scrimmage. 518 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 3: The Green Wave. 519 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 1: They come into the CFB with the news that they'll 520 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,719 Speaker 1: promote oc Will Hall two head coach, following John Sumral's 521 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 1: departure to Florida. The transition has not phased them, of course, 522 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: some are still going to be with them for this 523 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: game as well. As They shut down North Texas's top 524 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: ranked offense last week, holding them to just twenty one points, 525 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: winning the American American Conference Championship by thirteen two lane. 526 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: They are now eleven and two straight up six six 527 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:48,119 Speaker 1: and one ats. And their quarterback, Jake Retzlov he is 528 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,359 Speaker 1: their dude all man. He's leading the team in rushing, 529 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: also has thrown for over twenty eight hundred yards this season. Boggs, 530 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: I thought the difference in the AAC Championship for North 531 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: Texas would be two lanes, one hundred and twenty third 532 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: passing defense, and they've also allowed one hundred and twenty 533 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: first a most ten yard plus plays. It wasn't I 534 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 1: think it might work here though. 535 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 3: Do you think it does? 536 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 2: I think ole Miss rolls right over to lane. We've 537 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 2: already seen this matchup this year, right, this was forty 538 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 2: five to ten before. So the yardage in this game 539 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 2: five hundred and forty eight yards for ole Miss. They 540 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 2: had two hundred and forty one on the ground, three 541 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 2: hundred and seven through the air. They held to lane 542 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 2: to two hundred and eighty two yards, and they punted 543 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,439 Speaker 2: once the entire game. They had twenty three first downs, 544 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 2: seven to eleven on third downs. I mean, it was 545 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 2: just extremely efficient for ole Miss. Do I think it's 546 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 2: gonna be that efficient? Do I think they're gonna win 547 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 2: by thirty five. No, but I do think they're gonna 548 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:46,960 Speaker 2: win by three touchdowns in this game. I just think 549 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 2: the talent is a little bit too overwhelming. We talked 550 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 2: about how the first two games are tough to pick. 551 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 2: I don't think these next two really are. I think 552 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 2: everything's on the line here. You know, maybe Ole Miss 553 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,640 Speaker 2: with the coaching issues, and you know, some players probably 554 00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 2: have one foot out the door. Maybe two lane makes 555 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 2: this closer because of that, I don't think so. I 556 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 2: think this is still gonna be a beat down. And 557 00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 2: I think the next round is where you see Old 558 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:14,439 Speaker 2: Miss maybe get taken advantage of in those in that space. So, 559 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 2: but here I think they roll right over to lane. 560 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 2: I don't think this game is gonna be very close. 561 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, this might actually be the second half of my teaser. 562 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: I might take this down to thirteen and a half points, 563 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: just because I do worry that I'm not sure exactly 564 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: if the offense will look as good without lane. Behind 565 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: that said, and drawing up the scheme for the week. 566 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 1: But at the same time, like when they did face 567 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: two lane earlier in the season, Bogs like that was 568 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: when in Trinidad's first started. It might have actually been 569 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: his first startup the season when they won forty five 570 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 1: to ten. So I'm with you on ole Miss. It's 571 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 1: just gonna be a matter of what number do I take. 572 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: Do you think that this number continues to expand throughout 573 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 1: the week? 574 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:56,439 Speaker 2: Probably that I don't think. I think it's not the 575 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 2: top number it's gonna be is twenty and a half, 576 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 2: I believe, So I think that that's the highest it 577 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 2: could go. 578 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 3: Okay. 579 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 2: I don't think many people are gonna take over three scores, 580 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 2: so twenty one and a half, so I think it 581 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,719 Speaker 2: sticks below that, and I'm fine at anything under that. 582 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 2: We're showing value at like right around twenty okay, So 583 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 2: I think that's probably a better number to get it 584 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 2: at nineteen and a half, but I'm fine with anything 585 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 2: less than three touchdowns. 586 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: The final first round game kicks off from Eugene on Saturday, 587 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 1: December twentieth at seven thirty pm Eastern Time with the 588 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 1: fifth seeded Oregon Ducks. They're hosting the twelve seed James 589 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 1: Madison Dukes as twenty one and a half to twenty 590 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 1: three and a half point favorites. Jam you, they got 591 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,360 Speaker 1: here with an eleven and one straight up and eight 592 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 1: and five ATS record, they have become the fifth highest 593 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: rank conference champion. That's what pushed them in coming out 594 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 1: of the Sunbelt undefeated in conference play. Head coach Bob 595 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 1: Chesney he is right now, really I think I will 596 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 1: say struggling, but definitely a challenge for him to juggle 597 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,159 Speaker 1: both starting his new job at UCLA and preparing for 598 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: this game. Of course, we know Billy Napier, the former 599 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 1: Florida Gators head coach. He is ready to take over 600 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 1: after the Duke's playoff run. Jam Us running back Wayne Night, 601 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: This guy los sensational last week almost got us that 602 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: cover single hand. Lee He is now tenth in the 603 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 1: country and rushing yards after popping off for a two 604 00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: hundred against Troy. Dual threat quarterback Alonzo Barnett the third 605 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: he remains under center, leading this team to the tenth 606 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: rank scoring offense, largely predicated on that run game. They 607 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 1: also have the second ranked total defense, but that is 608 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 1: a bit weighted because of their one hundred ninth ranked 609 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: strength to schedule, so keep that in mind. Oregon their 610 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: only loss this season was to number one Indiana all 611 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: the way back in October, so that doesn't look as bad. 612 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: They're also eight and four ATS this season. Their ninth 613 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: rank scoring offense is led by quarterback Dante More, their 614 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,880 Speaker 1: tight end Kenyan Zadik, and running back no Winnington. Their 615 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 1: top four total defense is also littered with a ton 616 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: of talent at all three levels. 617 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 3: Bogs. 618 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: I really wanted to see Jim you make some noise 619 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: in the CFP, but here we are in Eugene, tough 620 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: environment to play. I'm just not sure there's a way 621 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: to get invested other than hoping this line. 622 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 3: Continues to grow and grow and grow. 623 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 1: And I can get it at the biggest number I can. 624 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll use a boost for that as well. That's 625 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,240 Speaker 1: gonna be my strategy is to sit and wait, see 626 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: if this can get any bigger, and then hop on 627 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 1: Jmu at the very last second. 628 00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 3: What about you? 629 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'm not taking Jamie in this game. 630 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 2: I think come on, I well, I think you said 631 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 2: it right. Like a coach with one foot out the 632 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: door is never a good thing. It's specifically when you 633 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 2: have a mismatch of this magnitude. And to me, we 634 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:39,200 Speaker 2: did see jam you play one before school. That was Louisville. 635 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 2: They got crushed twenty eighth to fourteen. 636 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 3: The lost Washington State two. I don't know if you 637 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 3: consider them P four or not anymore. 638 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, but they should have lost that game. 639 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 2: They won because they had to pick six in that game. 640 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 2: But they beat Washington State. But that the difference between 641 00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 2: Washington State and Oregon is an ocean. It's an abyss, right, 642 00:28:56,800 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 2: Like it's so huge. So I just don't see how 643 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: they're in this game. That's really the thing. And look, 644 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 2: they didn't do bad defensively against Louisville. They held Louisville 645 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 2: to two hundred and sixty four yards. They sacked they 646 00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 2: sacked Miller Moss six times. This was a strong defensive 647 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 2: performance for them. They're not gonna have that against Oregon. 648 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,240 Speaker 2: They're not gonna have that anywhere close to that against Oregon. 649 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 2: So this is I don't like how big the line is. 650 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 2: We are showing value towards JAMU in this line, which 651 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: makes me not love it. But this is a game 652 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 2: where I'm probably gonna have some player props. I don't 653 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 2: think I'm gonna have. I may I may go JMU 654 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,400 Speaker 2: team total under. Once we get to see what. 655 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 1: The toll and a half right now is what I've seen, 656 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: so I would actually be inclined to go over. 657 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 2: Maybe on that, what's the Oregon's team total. 658 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 3: I couldn't tell you. 659 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: On that, whatever would be the total minus thirteen and 660 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: a half, So I'm guessing you're probably looking mid thirties. 661 00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 3: Probably thirty three and a half is probably what you're. 662 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 2: Gonna find if it's anything under thirty five auto take, 663 00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 2: and I think I might take that up to like 664 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 2: forty one and a half for Oregon, so I'll be 665 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 2: on their team total over. I think they're gonna put 666 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,239 Speaker 2: the boots to them. The only thing that scares me 667 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:08,040 Speaker 2: is this is a massive line, and if you're crushing 668 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 2: them in the first half, do you just play it 669 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 2: safe and run, run, run, run, run in the first 670 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 2: half and then punt a lot and let them climb 671 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 2: back in right, So the line is too big for 672 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 2: me to love it, But I cannot take James Madison. 673 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 2: So even if this goes up to like I guess, 674 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 2: the number would have to get up to like twenty 675 00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 2: four and a half for me to even consider James Madison. 676 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 2: So and I don't think it's gonna get there. I 677 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 2: think it gets up to twenty two or twenty three 678 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 2: and a half. I don't think it goes up to 679 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 2: twenty four and a half. So I'll probably stay away 680 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 2: from this game for the most part. But we'll have 681 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 2: more for this on next week. 682 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: Yes is that twenty three and a half right now? 683 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 1: At our friends from hard rock bet. 684 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 2: So it is twenty one and a half yesterday, all right, 685 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 2: So maybe maybe there will be wiggle room to get 686 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 2: on JAMU, but I I still won't do it. I 687 00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 2: don't think we'll see. 688 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 1: Listen, I have not been to the beautiful city of 689 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: Eugene yet. I've been down there to JFU at time 690 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: or two. I've driven through there. It's a good little spot. 691 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: They got a nice little town there. I think they're 692 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 1: gonna be buzzing. I think you're gonna see some of 693 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 1: the more well off. 694 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 2: Are they all gonna go to Eugene? I don't know 695 00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 2: all the way across the country, by the way, I 696 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 2: don't know. 697 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 3: Maybe a time is that game? 698 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 2: Is that an afternoon seven Eastern time? My friend dude, 699 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 2: just the history of the East Coast going to the 700 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 2: West Coast. We just saw it with the Eagles against 701 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 2: the Chargers on Monday Night football. Your your body clock 702 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 2: is off on Lake games there as well. This all 703 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 2: adds up for bad things for James Madison. So I'm 704 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 2: just I'm gonna be off of James Madison. I don't 705 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 2: know if I want to take Oregon with that many 706 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 2: points on the line, but I just don't like this game. 707 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I'm gonna have some way to get invested 708 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:46,240 Speaker 1: back my boy PFT and the entire Duke's Nation up there, Bogs. 709 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: I'll have that official play for you next week though, 710 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: when I figure out how to get. 711 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 3: Invested with them. Let's keep it moving though. 712 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: We're gonna now jump into the upcoming bowl games, and 713 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 1: we are shifting from the college football rankings back to 714 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: the eighth rankings just so when I throw out some numbers, 715 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: you guys know where that's coming from. And we're actually 716 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 1: gonna start with the Army Navy game, which kicks off 717 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: this Saturday from M and T and Bank Stadium in Baltimore. 718 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: This is at three pm Eastern time. With the number 719 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: twenty two Navy midshipmen. They're laying between six and six 720 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: and a half points on the six and five Army 721 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: Black Knights. This is traditionally a very low scoring game. Navy, 722 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 1: of course, they won last year thirty one to thirteen 723 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: the Midshipman They finished third in the American at seven 724 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: to one in Conference play ninety two overall four and 725 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 1: seven ATS, and they did lose out on the conference 726 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: championship game due to tie breakers. They're the top ranked 727 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:42,120 Speaker 1: rushing offense in the country. They are also bottom eight 728 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,959 Speaker 1: and pace converting third down to the twelfth highest clips, 729 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 1: so very hard to get them off the field. 730 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,480 Speaker 3: They do have questionable though, they're. 731 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 1: Starting right guard, their tight end and their cornerback Army. Meanwhile, 732 00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: they were four and four in AAC play five and 733 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: six ats. They also possess a top five rushing offense 734 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: a bottom five pace on offense as well. But they 735 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 1: are one of the top teams in the country at 736 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: controlling the clock in time possession and limiting penalties as well. 737 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: Very disciplined group, but you know, would you expect anything 738 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 1: else from a Service academy Army. 739 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 3: Their right guard is banged up. 740 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 1: BP projections right now we have Navy by five and 741 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: a half, so Boggs, you know me, I love watching 742 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 1: the Service academies. 743 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, though I. 744 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 1: Was owing three when I got invested with them this year, 745 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: so I'm out on this one. 746 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 3: I will watch it. 747 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,200 Speaker 1: I will have a good time with it, but I'm 748 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: just gonna sit on the sidelines. 749 00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 3: Do you have a play? 750 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,719 Speaker 2: I like the over in this game. I think this 751 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 2: is set too low at thirty eight and a half. 752 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 2: Maybe has a little more on offense. You know, Blake 753 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 2: Horvath was impossible for Army to stop last season. I 754 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:46,120 Speaker 2: think that's gonna happen again Horvat. I think Navy can 755 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 2: definitely score, so it's just Army scoring in this game. Obviously, 756 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 2: Like you mentioned, they both played a slow pace, eat 757 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 2: up a lot of clock, they run, they chew it. 758 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 2: It's first versus fifth rushing offense here right like, so 759 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 2: we know this is going to be a lower scoring game, 760 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 2: but it went over last year and all we got 761 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 2: to do is get to forty points here and we're over. 762 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 2: So we're showing value there on our VP system, and 763 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 2: I like I like the over because I know Navy's 764 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 2: gonna score. I think they put up twenty four to 765 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 2: thirty somewhere in that range. So it's just getting more 766 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 2: than a touchdown from Army. And Navy's pretty good, but 767 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 2: they're tackling has been miserable. Oh yeah, I think it's 768 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 2: been real bad. I think the grade one hundred and 769 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 2: twenty fourth. We know that Army is also not getting 770 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 2: penalized there first in the country, only getting one penalty 771 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 2: a game. 772 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crazy. 773 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 2: I like the discipline that we have from Army, and 774 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 2: I like the fact that Navy is a little undisciplined 775 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 2: in their tackling. So it's just getting ten points from Army. 776 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 2: I think Navy does the rest. So I'm gonna go 777 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 2: with the over in this game. 778 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:55,399 Speaker 1: My heart tells me I should go there as well, 779 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 1: especially because I watched so closely that Navy Air Force 780 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: game earlier this season and Navy just could not stop them, right, 781 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 1: Navy could not stop them air Force. They throw the 782 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,879 Speaker 1: ball a little bit more than Army does, though, and 783 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 1: they're tackling, as you mentioned, was just atrocious in that 784 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 1: specific game. So for me, like, I want to go 785 00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 1: with the over, but the pace, the pace of play 786 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:16,880 Speaker 1: is what scares me. Bogs and I was also on 787 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: the Army temple over a couple of weeks ago, maybe 788 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:20,880 Speaker 1: a month or so. 789 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 2: At this point, does it make you feel only better 790 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:25,720 Speaker 2: than Navy was eight and three to the over this year. 791 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:27,919 Speaker 3: Well as Army, though they I think they would probably 792 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 3: a born seven. Yeah, no it doesn't. It doesn't no 793 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 3: play for me. 794 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 2: But we expect Navy to pace this game, don't we, 795 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,240 Speaker 2: and their five and a half point favorites. 796 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 3: I would take. 797 00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 1: I think I think I would take a Navy team 798 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: total before I would take the just over on on 799 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:41,439 Speaker 1: the game. 800 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 3: If that makes sense, that's fair. 801 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,399 Speaker 1: So yeah, let's go ahead, though, Bogs and move over 802 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,919 Speaker 1: capital one because the Coca Cola Bowl season kicks off 803 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: on Saturday night, a PM Eastern Time from Sofi Stadium 804 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 1: with the LA Bowl the nine to four Mountain West 805 00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: Championship Boise State Broncos. They're catching between nine and nine 806 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 1: and a half points against the eight and four Washington Huskies. Boise, 807 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: they just won their third straight conference title over UNLV. 808 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 3: They won thirty eight twenty one with quarterback Maddix Maxon 809 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 3: back under center. 810 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 1: He looked great, and their potential opt outs include safety 811 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,480 Speaker 1: tyd Benefield, their left tackle Cage Casey as well be 812 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 1: declaring for the NFL Draft. Washington, they really sputtered it 813 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,200 Speaker 1: at the end of the season. They lost to Wisconsin 814 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,160 Speaker 1: back in early November and then to Oregon twenty six 815 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 1: fourteen last time out. They potentially have opting out running 816 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 1: back Jona Coleman, wide receiver Denzel Boston, and cornerback to 817 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:37,799 Speaker 1: Cardio Davis. However, Jetfish did come out and say that 818 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 1: he expects everyone to play aside from some of those. 819 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 3: Long term injuries. That includes Davis. 820 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: So they should be getting back their starting safety and 821 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,000 Speaker 1: their center who missed that Oregon game. 822 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:49,239 Speaker 3: BP projections. 823 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:51,920 Speaker 1: Right now, we have you dubbed by nearly eleven and 824 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,840 Speaker 1: a half points. I would, personally, I think like to 825 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 1: take Boise State if Coleman and Boston are out of 826 00:36:57,920 --> 00:36:59,799 Speaker 1: this one. But if they're not, I think I'm just 827 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: a gonna be boring another stay away from me. 828 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:02,560 Speaker 3: What about you, Scotti? 829 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,400 Speaker 2: I mean, dude, this is the exact same thought process 830 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:09,040 Speaker 2: I had. I started writing up this game thinking, no 831 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:13,080 Speaker 2: way DENZELP. Boston plays, no way? Yeah, yeah, And then 832 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:15,799 Speaker 2: Jed Fish says we expect everyone to play, and I 833 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,240 Speaker 2: guess his wife was at an award ceremony with Joanah 834 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 2: Coleman recently while he was on a scouting trip or 835 00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,839 Speaker 2: a recruiting trip or something. I don't know, but like 836 00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:27,680 Speaker 2: so they're they're connected, right, Like he I feel like 837 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:30,120 Speaker 2: he knows his players very very well. So it seems 838 00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 2: like they're gonna show up obviously. You know, maybe maybe 839 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 2: something happens, but we would have heard about it by now. 840 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 2: They're all gonna play. I'm gonna take Washington in this game. 841 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 2: I think I'm with you. I would have wanted to 842 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 2: take Boise stand yeah, but with Washington playing, I mean, 843 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,320 Speaker 2: and just they match up really well here. Like Washington 844 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 2: is not in the upper echelona the Big Ten this 845 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 2: year obviously, but they're still in the USC, Michigan, Illinois 846 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,400 Speaker 2: area of this conference that tier, I. 847 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 3: Would say, but me right in there with Illinois, yeah. 848 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 2: Call on bottom of that tier. Still that's still way 849 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 2: better than Boise State in my opinion. So they haven't 850 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,800 Speaker 2: run the ball very well this season, but Boise State's 851 00:38:04,840 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 2: run defense is awful. I think they're gonna have They're 852 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,560 Speaker 2: gonna have success doing that. And the red zone scoring 853 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,280 Speaker 2: for Boise State has also been one of their worst 854 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 2: like statistical things this year. They're one hundred and twenty 855 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 2: fourth allowing red zone scoring. So Boise also blitz is 856 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,799 Speaker 2: like crazy, and Demon Williams has a fifty five point 857 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 2: three completion percentage against the Blitz or against win pressured. 858 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 2: That's thirteen out of one hundred and forty nine quarterbacks 859 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 2: ranked with one hundred and fifty drop back Interesting, so 860 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 2: they match up well. They can run the ball and 861 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 2: will be better at running the ball against Boise State. 862 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 2: I think that's gonna give their offense more balance, the 863 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 2: balance that they want against a team like Boise State. 864 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 2: And I think they win this one by two touchdowns. 865 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 2: So give me the Huskies and I'll lay the points here. 866 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,400 Speaker 1: Okay, We've got a couple of conference runner ups squaring 867 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: off in the Salute to Veterans Bowl from Montgomery, Alabama, 868 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 1: kicking off on Tuesday, December sixteenth, at nine pm Eastern time. 869 00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 1: The eight and five Troy Trojans are three and a 870 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 1: half to four point favorites over the eight and five 871 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 1: Jacksonville State game Cocks. Troy, they just lost to jam 872 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: U thirty one to fourteen in the Sun Belt Championship game, 873 00:39:09,200 --> 00:39:12,359 Speaker 1: but they did cover, bringing them to nine to four ats. 874 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: They did lose quarterback Goose Crowder late in that game. 875 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 1: He was seen on crutches afterwards, and they're starting running 876 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:20,680 Speaker 1: back Trey Meadows. 877 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:21,760 Speaker 3: He has hit the portal. 878 00:39:22,120 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 1: Jack State there clawed their way back into the lead 879 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: of the CUSA Conference championship game after being down two 880 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 1: scores late in the fourth quarter, looked all but over, 881 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:33,640 Speaker 1: and then they just gave it right back to Kansas 882 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 1: State to lose. That pushed them to six and seven ATS, 883 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 1: and they could still be without their left guard Adrian 884 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: Gumm and their cornerback Tyron Taylor. The BB projections right now, 885 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 1: we have this closer two and a half points. 886 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 3: So I'm once. 887 00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 1: Again tempted to get invest with jack State, specifically because 888 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 1: they have a top five ranked rushing offense. 889 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:57,040 Speaker 3: Troy is one hundred twelve against the run. But Boggs, 890 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 3: they've burned me. 891 00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: A few times here as of late, and you out 892 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 1: of Kansas State ticket to the window last week, so 893 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,520 Speaker 1: well continue to fade the game, Cocks. 894 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 2: No, I'm rolling with Jacksonville State here. I think your 895 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 2: first assessment is absolutely correct. Right. They have that strong 896 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:15,400 Speaker 2: rushing game against a weak rushing defense, and specifically, with 897 00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 2: Goose Crowder probably not playing in this game, there's a 898 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 2: potential that he's been mentioned in the portal as well, 899 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 2: so he may be portaling it. We'll see great name. 900 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 2: By the way. 901 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: Also apparently they sat on that broadcast and hope you 902 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:31,359 Speaker 1: caught it. But he was a big top Gun fan 903 00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 1: growing up, so. 904 00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 2: He oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. I 905 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 2: mean great name for him, absolutely, but I don't think 906 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:39,960 Speaker 2: we see him in this game. And this is what 907 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 2: we were worried about for Troy against James Madison, right, 908 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:46,040 Speaker 2: I kept referencing, Hey, look, they just gave up three 909 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty one rushing yard to ODU. Well, they 910 00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,239 Speaker 2: gave up three hundred and eighteen to James Madison, so 911 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:54,200 Speaker 2: two hundred and seventeen of Memphis in that loss. Arkie 912 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 2: beat them up on defense, only allowing them to have 913 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty seven yards. So Jackville State isn't perfect, 914 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 2: but this is the best matchup the roster strength from 915 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 2: my guys that see if you winning edge ninety four 916 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 2: verus ninety five here. So it's tight, but we have 917 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 2: opt outs, transfer portal and injuries for Troy. For Jacksonville State, 918 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 2: their guys are coming back. You know, Troy can still 919 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 2: be in this one because Tucker Killcrease, he started seven 920 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 2: games for Troy this year. They were five and two 921 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 2: in that stretch. But I also love that this game 922 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 2: is in Alabama for both these Alabama teams. It's I 923 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 2: think it's an hour away from Troy and two hours 924 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:32,719 Speaker 2: away from Jacksonville, so it should be represented there. But 925 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 2: give me Jacksonville State to run this ball right down 926 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 2: Troy's throat. I don't know why we're catching points here. 927 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:40,680 Speaker 2: I don't understand why Troy is favored, so we're getting 928 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 2: points for Jacksonville State. I don't think that lasts, So 929 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,200 Speaker 2: go ahead and get it as soon as you can. 930 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:45,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, you may. 931 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,959 Speaker 1: Maybe you talked me into because I my heart wants 932 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,319 Speaker 1: to go with Cooking Kreole one more time. But it's 933 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 1: just been so heartbreaking the way they've lost these games 934 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 1: as of late. So all right, let's keep it moving 935 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,719 Speaker 1: here to Orlando, which will once again host the Cureble 936 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 1: with the nine three Old Dominion Monarchs. They're catching five 937 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,240 Speaker 1: and a half to six and a half points against 938 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 1: the nine to three South Florida Bulls ODU. 939 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 3: They had a really strong season. 940 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 1: They finished second in the Sunbelt East Division and it 941 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:12,120 Speaker 1: really should have been. 942 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 3: In the conference finals if. 943 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't for those dang divisions, and they were seven 944 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:19,080 Speaker 1: to five ats and actually blew out Troy, who we 945 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:22,479 Speaker 1: just talked about thirty three zero in mid November. They 946 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 1: were led by twenty twenty five Sunbelt Offensive Player of 947 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: the Year quarterback Colton Joseph, who was second in the 948 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 1: conference in passing touchdowns with twenty one, fourth in rushing 949 00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 1: yards with over one thousand. So this guy was really 950 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,839 Speaker 1: their whole offense and he'll be out of this one right. 951 00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:40,719 Speaker 1: So this leaves a freshman Quinn Henikel under center, who 952 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,880 Speaker 1: rushed for two hundred yards in his one start in 953 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. Also questionable is their cornerback bostros A 954 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:51,480 Speaker 1: Lionstrow And what started as the Cinderella season with a 955 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,560 Speaker 1: couple upset wins over Boise State ended on a rather 956 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:55,880 Speaker 1: disappointing note. 957 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 3: For South Florida. 958 00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 1: They dropped AAC games to Memphis and Navy down stretch 959 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 1: head coach Al Golash. He is also heading towards Auburn, 960 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 1: taking his offensive coordinator and some key members of that 961 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: staff with him. They're already on the road, so they 962 00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 1: are gone and they will not be a part of 963 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,919 Speaker 1: the Bowl prep. It's unknown whether quarterback Byron Brown will 964 00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 1: be up for this. When he led the country until 965 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:22,399 Speaker 1: touchdowns forty two, he did say, though, while he's still 966 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,600 Speaker 1: mulling over whether he's going to transfer or potentially enter 967 00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft, that we quote have one more game 968 00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:33,200 Speaker 1: following USF's regular season finale. They could also be without 969 00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 1: their cornerback James Chanall and their defensive end Denard Flowers, 970 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:37,400 Speaker 1: who are injured. 971 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:40,800 Speaker 3: BP projections, we set this line at over seven and 972 00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 3: a half points. Bugs. This is another spot where I 973 00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:46,520 Speaker 3: have a bit of a mixed feel. Specifically with the. 974 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,240 Speaker 1: Opt outs, I think I am leaning towards the under. 975 00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:53,480 Speaker 1: Though no Joseph, no USF offensive staff. I think that 976 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 1: puts both these teams at a disadvantage on the offensive 977 00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: side despite them playing at a very fast paced What 978 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 1: about you, NA, I like. 979 00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 2: The over here because it's Byron Brown, man like, as 980 00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:07,719 Speaker 2: long as he's playing, I like the over for the game. 981 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:09,880 Speaker 2: I like the over for USF as well, because I 982 00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 2: think if he plays in this game, he's gonna want 983 00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:14,279 Speaker 2: to let it rip right, Like, You're not going there 984 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 2: to run the ball a million times, You're not gonna 985 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:17,759 Speaker 2: come and play this game to run the ball a 986 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 2: million times. Now, this is a big if. This is 987 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 2: a massive if, right because it goes to is already 988 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,160 Speaker 2: out the door. So we know ODU is not gonna 989 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 2: score their traditional amount of points. I think that USF 990 00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:32,680 Speaker 2: can get most of this if Byron Brown is playing 991 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,959 Speaker 2: in this game. So that's why you know both both 992 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,720 Speaker 2: teams are average on defense. Od you played a week schedule, 993 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 2: USF was seven and five to the over. USF is 994 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 2: number one in pace, ODU is twenty eight. So even 995 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,280 Speaker 2: with a backup quarterback with a little bit of extra 996 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 2: time to prepare here, maybe that's gonna be good because 997 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:54,239 Speaker 2: they do pace quickly as well. ODU is strong on 998 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 2: defense statistically and in grade, but they have played one 999 00:44:58,160 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 2: of the weakest offensive schedules. 1000 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 1: Man. 1001 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 2: They faced Virginia Tech, who's one hundred and fourteenth in scoring, Liberty, 1002 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 2: who's eighty first, COLSTU, who's one hundred and third. App 1003 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,440 Speaker 2: State is eighty fourth, ULM is one hundred and thirtieth. 1004 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:11,960 Speaker 2: Georgia State is one hundred and nineteenth. That's fifty percent 1005 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:16,000 Speaker 2: of their schedule, right there, is against eight teams in 1006 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 2: the eighties or lower in scoring. So just awful schedule 1007 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 2: when you really break it down, when they did face 1008 00:45:23,239 --> 00:45:26,399 Speaker 2: decent offenses, the Indiana game was the only one, and 1009 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:28,719 Speaker 2: by the way, they turned them all over twice in 1010 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 2: the red zone in that game, so they probably should 1011 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 2: have had closer to forty than the twenty seven that 1012 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 2: they had. But we saw them just get rocked sixty 1013 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 2: three to twenty seven against JAMU forty eight. They gave 1014 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,839 Speaker 2: it to Marshall as well, So USF is going to win. 1015 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 2: I think they're going to score a lot of points, 1016 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 2: so I think I would lay the six for USF 1017 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 2: with no issue at all. I like the over as well. 1018 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,040 Speaker 2: If you were concerned about O do you doing their end? 1019 00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 2: I would say the team total for USF is fine. 1020 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,760 Speaker 2: Again all if Byron Brown is playing, which right now 1021 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 2: it seems like he is playing, so we'll roll with it. 1022 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 2: If he opts out, I just take the under for 1023 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 2: the game, like Seth said initially, so massive. It's a 1024 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 2: massive swing. But Byron Brown, like you said, led the 1025 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:19,359 Speaker 2: country in touchdowns this year, so I believe in him. 1026 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,279 Speaker 2: If he's gonna end up playing in this game, I 1027 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:21,759 Speaker 2: think we're. 1028 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:22,960 Speaker 3: Gonna have a grudge match on this one. 1029 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,839 Speaker 1: I think either with him, I mean without him, I 1030 00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 1: love the under. I still like it a lot, though, 1031 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 1: even if he's in this game, because none of Odu's 1032 00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 1: past five games have gone over this fifty five and 1033 00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:37,279 Speaker 1: a half point total. Also, only four of eleven of 1034 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,800 Speaker 1: their games have hit this mark this season as well. 1035 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 3: They have the twentieth best scoring defense. 1036 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 1: Again, some of that is predicated on who they've played, 1037 00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 1: but they also get after the quarterback man at a 1038 00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,800 Speaker 1: top eleven clip, and that's something that may trouble USF, 1039 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,600 Speaker 1: a program that took the thirty first most sacks per 1040 00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: game this season. ODU is also terrible at scoring in 1041 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: the red zone one hundred and nineteenth in red zone 1042 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 1: scoring percent. Will also likely get worse without Joseph. I 1043 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,399 Speaker 1: will probably also, you know, throw out a ticket for 1044 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:09,000 Speaker 1: South Florida just to cover this line if South Florida's 1045 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:09,759 Speaker 1: gonna be with Brown. 1046 00:47:09,840 --> 00:47:11,680 Speaker 3: But yeah, I just love the under. I think it's 1047 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,440 Speaker 3: my favorite play of the week. So that that's oh wow, okay, yeah, 1048 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:15,560 Speaker 3: I'm very very high on it. 1049 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 1: I think, dude, oh to you, they're not bad on defense. 1050 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:20,920 Speaker 1: The only time they really got you know, the doors 1051 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 1: kicked off them. We're against JMU who you know, that's everyone. 1052 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 2: I think the sacks that they give up at USP, 1053 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:28,799 Speaker 2: Byron Brown makes up for him, right, And I think 1054 00:47:28,840 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 2: those are obviously those are his his time to throw, 1055 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,319 Speaker 2: right like that, that's really what it is. And they're 1056 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 2: first in pace like it all really does depend on him, right. 1057 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 2: They're top twenty four and ten plus yard plays, so 1058 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 2: it is oh to you there're seventeenth in UH plays 1059 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 2: over ten yards, So like, I think there's explosive plays 1060 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 2: available for both these squads. And I just really like 1061 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:51,799 Speaker 2: Byron Brown if he's gonna roll in this game, I 1062 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 2: think he wants to put up as many points as 1063 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:54,160 Speaker 2: he can. 1064 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:55,799 Speaker 1: Does he play the whole game though? Or does he 1065 00:47:55,840 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 1: pull a cam Ward like that's the other thing. 1066 00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 2: Well, if he doesn't play the whole game is probably 1067 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 2: because they've already before. 1068 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, let's head south to the site of 1069 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:08,399 Speaker 1: the Senior Bolmobile Alabama for the sixty eight Ventures Bowl, 1070 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:11,560 Speaker 1: where things get underway on Wednesday, December seventeenth at eight 1071 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:15,319 Speaker 1: thirty pm Eastern time. This is one between the six 1072 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,840 Speaker 1: and six Louisiana Rag Occasions, favored by two and a 1073 00:48:18,880 --> 00:48:21,360 Speaker 1: half to three and a half points over the Delaware 1074 00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:24,120 Speaker 1: fight in Blue Hens. The Cajuns, they finished in the 1075 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,840 Speaker 1: middle of the pack in the Sun Belt West and 1076 00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:29,920 Speaker 1: were six and six ats this season. They were very 1077 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 1: much relying on their quarterback Lunch win Field and their 1078 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 1: running back tandem of Elijah Davis and z Island Perry. The 1079 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:40,400 Speaker 1: only player missing for them could be their center Cooper Forum, 1080 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,799 Speaker 1: who missed their finale game the Blue Hens. Meanwhile, they 1081 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:47,440 Speaker 1: just joined Conference USA from the FCS level. Pretty strong 1082 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,879 Speaker 1: season overall to get to a bowl game. They were 1083 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: just four to seven and one ats tho their quarterback 1084 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 1: Nick Minnesooni. He led the conference in passing attempts and yards. 1085 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:02,240 Speaker 1: They also have questionable running back Joe Silver, who played 1086 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 1: just twenty three snaps in their regular season finale BP projections. 1087 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:09,239 Speaker 1: We have Louisiana by nearly four points. Is that the 1088 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 1: side you're on, Scott Boggin. 1089 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:13,560 Speaker 2: Yes, I am, and I was kind of surprised by 1090 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 2: it when I looked at it, because Delaware statistically seems, 1091 00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 2: you know, obviously much better on offense. Yes, Louisiana isn't 1092 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:23,840 Speaker 2: great on defense either, Like they're just okay, I was 1093 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:26,759 Speaker 2: kind of surprised that they won six games. But this 1094 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:31,279 Speaker 2: is again massive travel for Delaware versus Louisiana go all 1095 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:34,239 Speaker 2: the way to Alabama, so you know, you think about that, 1096 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,320 Speaker 2: and also think about the fact that five of delaware 1097 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:39,399 Speaker 2: six losses were on the road this year. They love 1098 00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,800 Speaker 2: playing at home. They haven't been as good on the road, 1099 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 2: so you know, I think the over is in play 1100 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,440 Speaker 2: as well because both these defenses have been soft. But 1101 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 2: of course we just we have to have for Louisiana 1102 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 2: to win this game, we have to have our boy 1103 00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 2: Lunch out there. Lunch Winfield has to be playing. But 1104 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,359 Speaker 2: Delaware playing at home is the name of the game. 1105 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 2: As the FIU game on September twenty was their only 1106 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 2: road win of the season, all the way back in September. 1107 00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 2: There are other road losses Colorado, Jacksonville State, Liberty, Sam 1108 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:12,479 Speaker 2: Houston State is an embarrassing loss to have, even on 1109 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:17,400 Speaker 2: the road. Obviously, Wake Forest was a loss that wasn't 1110 00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,799 Speaker 2: surprising there. But it's the Cajuns For me in this game, 1111 00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:23,799 Speaker 2: I don't have a massive amount of confidence. I haven't 1112 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,759 Speaker 2: got to watch a ton of Delaware or Louisiana this year. 1113 00:50:26,800 --> 00:50:28,919 Speaker 2: I watched a little bit of Delaware against wake Forest 1114 00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,760 Speaker 2: because I had their team total under Wake Forest defense. 1115 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 2: It's just nasty. But I gotta go with the Cajuns here. 1116 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:38,960 Speaker 2: It's just less travel. I think they'll have a bigger crowd, 1117 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 2: and Delaware has not been good on the road this year. 1118 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 1: I'm actually going to be on the over of this one. 1119 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:45,880 Speaker 1: Bogs fifty seven and a half points. 1120 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:48,600 Speaker 3: Delaware. They had that sixth to rank passing offense. 1121 00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:51,000 Speaker 1: I think that will actually carve up the Cajuns eighty 1122 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:54,040 Speaker 1: seventh rank passing defense and Louisiana they're really good at 1123 00:50:54,080 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 1: running the ball right twenty ninth right now in the 1124 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 1: country at their clip for rushing, and I think that 1125 00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 1: should be enough to get through the hens eighty ninth 1126 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 1: raked rushing defense that is considerably worse on the road, 1127 00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,200 Speaker 1: and five out of the seven last game for the 1128 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,799 Speaker 1: Hens went over this total. They're also six five and 1129 00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,879 Speaker 1: one to the over and seven of the last nine 1130 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,360 Speaker 1: Cagun games also went over this total. They're eight and 1131 00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:19,480 Speaker 1: four to the over on the season, So I really. 1132 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:22,239 Speaker 2: Like the over Delaware twenty six in pace as well, 1133 00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:23,840 Speaker 2: nice fast pace for them. 1134 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 1: Yes, so I think like that's really I just think 1135 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,399 Speaker 1: the offenses can line up very nicely and attack both 1136 00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:31,360 Speaker 1: these as you mentioned, soft defenses. 1137 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 3: So that's gonna be my play and let's hope for points. 1138 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:35,840 Speaker 2: Fingers cross, let's go ahead. 1139 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:38,839 Speaker 1: We'll round it out with the Xbox Bowl kicking off 1140 00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 1: at nine pm Eastern time in Frisco, Texas the seven 1141 00:51:42,560 --> 00:51:45,480 Speaker 1: and five Missouri State Bears. They are laying between one 1142 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 1: and a half and two and a half points against 1143 00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:50,360 Speaker 1: the six and five Arkansas State red Wolves. The Bears 1144 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:53,560 Speaker 1: also made the jump from FCS to Conference USA and 1145 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:56,239 Speaker 1: they fared pretty well at five and three in conference play, 1146 00:51:56,440 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 1: also seven and five ATS on the season. They have 1147 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 1: the twenty second ranked passing offense. They are led by 1148 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,480 Speaker 1: senior quarterback Jacob Clark. This guy's been with them for 1149 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 1: his entire career. He also led the Conference USA and 1150 00:52:10,520 --> 00:52:13,120 Speaker 1: passing touchdowns with twenty four of them. They're starting defensive 1151 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,799 Speaker 1: tack with Ryan Williams. He is questionable after missing the 1152 00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,359 Speaker 1: past two contests. That could be a big loss for them. 1153 00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:21,439 Speaker 1: Arkansas State, meanwhile, they're middle of the road coming from 1154 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 1: the Sunbelt Conference. They are eight and four ATS on 1155 00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 1: the back of their junior quarterback Jalen Rayner, who also 1156 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:32,440 Speaker 1: led the Conference of passing tempts, yards and interceptions as well. 1157 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:36,360 Speaker 1: They have a questionable they're stud left guard Tristan Smith, 1158 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 1: who's been out since Week eleven, causing them to drop 1159 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,840 Speaker 1: three their last four against the spread BP projections. 1160 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,360 Speaker 3: Right now, we have the Bears by over a point. 1161 00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 3: That's where I'm heading. What about you? 1162 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm on Missouri State here, and this one is 1163 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,360 Speaker 2: going to be extremely tight, I feel like. But I 1164 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:56,400 Speaker 2: do feel like your boy Jacob Clark is the difference 1165 00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 2: maker in this game, and they really just need to 1166 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 2: hold give him enough time to hit those explosive plays 1167 00:53:02,920 --> 00:53:06,160 Speaker 2: thirty second and ten plus yard plays this season, and 1168 00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:07,960 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna win this one. The Bears have 1169 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,360 Speaker 2: five players or twenty five catches or in four hundred 1170 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:13,880 Speaker 2: or more yards, but no one over five hundred and 1171 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:16,880 Speaker 2: fifty yards. So obviously they spread it around, They find 1172 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,640 Speaker 2: the weakness and hit it. That's what they do. So 1173 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,759 Speaker 2: they're gonna spread you out, they're gonna pace you as well. 1174 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:26,440 Speaker 2: So I really like this offense. I do think. You know, 1175 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:29,120 Speaker 2: Arkansas State is a very good passing offense behind quarterback 1176 00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:32,320 Speaker 2: Jalen Rainer, but they've struggled to put up points, ninetieth 1177 00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 2: in scoring and in red zone scoring percentage. So I 1178 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 2: do think if Arkansas State wins this game, we're gonna 1179 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:41,720 Speaker 2: be hearing about the pressure that DeMarcus Hendrix, Ethan Hasslar, 1180 00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:45,360 Speaker 2: Coda Siegler. We're putting against Jacob Clark, but they grade 1181 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:49,200 Speaker 2: very well in pass blocking this season. Right that it 1182 00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 2: was thirtieth this season? You said, was it the Missouri 1183 00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,279 Speaker 2: State guard or was it the Arkansas State guard that's 1184 00:53:56,320 --> 00:53:57,200 Speaker 2: down as. 1185 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 1: The Arkansas State left guard Tristan Smith, And apparently from 1186 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:02,640 Speaker 1: all things I'm hearing this guy could be an NFL 1187 00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:03,440 Speaker 1: caliber player. 1188 00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, so not on the Missouri State side though, 1189 00:54:06,640 --> 00:54:08,280 Speaker 2: I just wanted to make sure to make that clear. 1190 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:12,520 Speaker 2: So that Missouri State offensive line is healthy. I think 1191 00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 2: they're gonna hold up. Not my favorite confidence, I'll be honest. 1192 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:18,640 Speaker 2: I don't think I saw Missouri State play more than 1193 00:54:18,680 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 2: like ten plays this year. Maybe I saw one game 1194 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:25,760 Speaker 2: with Archie, but not a lot of these guys this season. 1195 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:29,239 Speaker 2: But I do think, based on what we've seen so far, 1196 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:31,879 Speaker 2: Missouri State is probably going to pull this game out. 1197 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:32,359 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1198 00:54:32,640 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 1: I actually, for whatever reason, I don't know if it's 1199 00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:38,120 Speaker 1: just the TV contract, I think CUSA. They have a 1200 00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 1: deal with CBS Sports Network, so I had a lot 1201 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:45,880 Speaker 1: of CUSA games on the TV this season, and Missouri 1202 00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:47,680 Speaker 1: State was actually when I got to watch a decent 1203 00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,120 Speaker 1: amount of So I'm on the money line here. They 1204 00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:53,399 Speaker 1: gave Kennesaw State, hell, they gave Western Kentucky a tough 1205 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:56,560 Speaker 1: out as well, and they also a good offense CFIU 1206 00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 1: man like. And then also they beat Marshall on the road. 1207 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 1: That's the only Sun Belt team they faced, So I 1208 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:05,839 Speaker 1: think they're in a good position here. Arkansas State they 1209 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,399 Speaker 1: actually lost to every non conference opponent they faced at 1210 00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,360 Speaker 1: the FBS level this year, that includes one from the 1211 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,160 Speaker 1: Sun Belt. So for me, I think I'm gonna have 1212 00:55:16,239 --> 00:55:19,919 Speaker 1: to go with them. And like, also, the Bears better 1213 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:23,240 Speaker 1: in pretty much like every major statistical category we're weighing 1214 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:27,000 Speaker 1: in this as well, especially in that turnover margin. Arkansas 1215 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,640 Speaker 1: State they have really struggled there. Also, Like, I just 1216 00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 1: love this Missouri State team. I love the heart they've 1217 00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,920 Speaker 1: shown coming up. Seems like they've really bonded and Clark 1218 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 1: is at the heart of it. They talk on every 1219 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:39,560 Speaker 1: single broadcast how much this guy means the program. He 1220 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,359 Speaker 1: might be the future head coach. He might be at 1221 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 1: least on the staff in the future. So I just 1222 00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:48,279 Speaker 1: also believe it. In the Conference, USA teams a lot 1223 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:50,839 Speaker 1: more than the Sunbelt aside from JMU, so I think 1224 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:51,839 Speaker 1: they're gonna prove it here. 1225 00:55:52,160 --> 00:55:53,720 Speaker 3: I'm really excited about the Bears. 1226 00:55:54,200 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, let's go and Boggs before we get out of here. 1227 00:55:57,120 --> 00:55:59,160 Speaker 1: It is time for the hard rock best bets of 1228 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 1: the week. And what do you have for us, my friend? 1229 00:56:02,200 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 2: I'm gonna lay the points with Washington. All those guys 1230 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:06,399 Speaker 2: are gonna be playing. I think they're just a much 1231 00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:09,359 Speaker 2: better team than Boise stayed. Overall, I think I think 1232 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,640 Speaker 2: there are some P four schools the Boise State could 1233 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:15,319 Speaker 2: jump up and get. I don't think Washington is one 1234 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:18,120 Speaker 2: of them. So going to an NFL stadium and so far, 1235 00:56:19,400 --> 00:56:22,239 Speaker 2: if everyone's playing for the Huskies, give me the Husky 1236 00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:23,280 Speaker 2: is gonna lay the points. 1237 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,319 Speaker 1: I'm going against you with that one, and I want 1238 00:56:25,320 --> 00:56:27,919 Speaker 1: to fight you with Old Dominion versus South Florida under 1239 00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,240 Speaker 1: fifty five and a half minus one oh five. 1240 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:31,800 Speaker 3: Four the curable. Oh do you? 1241 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 1: They lost almost that entire offensive per formance. I think 1242 00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:37,359 Speaker 1: Colton Joseph he meant so much this team. 1243 00:56:37,440 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 2: He was great. 1244 00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:40,520 Speaker 1: I think they're also one of the better G five 1245 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:44,040 Speaker 1: teams on defense. And I think USFS offensive staff being gone, 1246 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:45,680 Speaker 1: I think that's really gonna hurt them, take some the 1247 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:49,600 Speaker 1: wins out of their sales. So plus, like, who knows 1248 00:56:49,640 --> 00:56:51,840 Speaker 1: if Brown plays that whole game, I said, maybe he 1249 00:56:51,880 --> 00:56:53,320 Speaker 1: pulls the camboard. 1250 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:55,840 Speaker 2: So it's caveat for me. Like Byron Brown has to 1251 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 2: play to be on that over, and if he does play, 1252 00:56:58,239 --> 00:56:59,920 Speaker 2: I think they put up most of the total them, 1253 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:01,040 Speaker 2: so we'll see. 1254 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 3: Okay, Well, there you have it. 1255 00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:05,919 Speaker 1: Washington and the over in the curable As are hard 1256 00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:08,360 Speaker 1: Rock Best Bets, and of course today's show is brought 1257 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 1: to you by our presenting sponsor over there at hard 1258 00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,960 Speaker 1: Rock Bet and Big News.
