He's got big time bogman, Bob, how 12 00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: are you as we begin another fantastic run in the CFP. 13 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 2: I am doing great, man. You know, look, my big 14 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:47,279 Speaker 2: bet of the week last week was Washington, honestly for us, 15 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 2: so that was great. And I'm watching your big bet 16 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 2: of the games that we picked last week is currently 17 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 2: on as we're recording. What's your number on this Old 18 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 2: Dominion South Florida game? 19 00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: I think I have a fifty four and a half 20 00:00:58,880 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: point total. 21 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 2: Un is what I am only ten points in the 22 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,199 Speaker 2: first quarter, So like that and no Byron Brown. Remember 23 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 2: I was on the over. Yep, if Byron Brown played, 24 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 2: he decided to opt out. So South Florida only has 25 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:14,320 Speaker 2: three points now in the first quarter, so that bed 26 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,839 Speaker 2: is looking like it is going to sail to the under, 27 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 2: so hopefully we cannot stick with that. 28 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,199 Speaker 1: Also, a little Jack State covering for you yesterday as well, 29 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: So yeah. 30 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 2: That was on that one by the Chinny chin Chin 31 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 2: That Hail Mary was pretty close, almost a connection there. 32 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 2: So but yeah, Jack State looked good last week as well. 33 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, let me tell you what I was contemplating all week, 34 00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: whether I was going to go back to Jack State. 35 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: I've been on them so much this season. I was like, 36 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm just good missing on this last one. 37 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: And then the way that game shook out, I was like, okay, 38 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: I find that. You know, it came through, but I 39 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: was happy to sit on the sidelines for it. Today's show, 40 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: Bogs does look like this. We're gonna get into all 41 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: four CFP games and then the next four bowl games. 42 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: Kind of a weird slate of bowl games. I will say, 43 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: a lot of opt outs on coaching change, so just 44 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: something to kind of keep in mind for you. But 45 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: we still have a ton of bowl games left, Boggs. 46 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: I don't know if you've looked ahead to your Texas Longhorns 47 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,240 Speaker 1: by already have a bet on them for a couple 48 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 1: weeks from now, so looking forward to that one.

Like in school, they give away like a 74 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 1: free bike every year from like mister moneyman would come 75 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: in with the you know, uh school fundraiser or whatever. 76 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: I was never that kid. I did win a giveaway 77 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 1: a few years ago, like an autograph frame Tyreek Hill 78 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: jersey at the Fans Football Expo. Are you big giveaway winner? 79 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: I am? Actually I have weird luck affles and like 80 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,839 Speaker 2: not like the lottery. I played the lottery and never 81 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 2: won that scratchers also okay, at like that's all just 82 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: random luck, but for whatever reason, I come away with raffles. 83 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 2: I remember winning my first one at like ten. I 84 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: was the Alvin Opry in Alvin, Texas, home of Nolan Ryan. 85 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: By the way, I listen to a bunch of you know, 86 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 2: awesome country music and my aunt gave all of the 87 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: kids a raffle ticket. Right, there was five of us 88 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: or ten of us. There was a bunch of us there, 89 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 2: but we all got a raffle ticket and I won 90 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 2: like a cup. So they only drew like thirteen prizes 91 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 2: and they're like three hundred people there, and I won 92 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 2: one of them. So I thought that was pretty funny. 93 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 2: And I've done like a lot of those classroom raffles. 94 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: I would win it. I would also save, like I 95 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 2: would hoard whatever I had for those raffles to get 96 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 2: the big ticket item. So you know, a little bit 97 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 2: of skewed luck there, of course, But yeah, I've been 98 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 2: pretty good raffles. I'll say this, it stops at whatever 99 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: the raffle for the money at a baseball stadium is. 100 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 2: I've never won one of those, Okay, So if it's 101 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 2: over I think it's over five hundred people, that's where 102 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 2: my luck stops. But under five hundred people giveaways things 103 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 2: like that, I do have. Okay, look at I have 104 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 2: to admit I'm pretty good at those for whatever reason. 105 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 2: Whatever dumb luck. 106 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 1: Well, good to know, and good to know. You're also 107 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: employed by betting pro so you cannot enter the these raffles, 108 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: so come get it while Bogs is still employed, so 109 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: you can still keep winning these and we really appreciate y'all. 110 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and jump in though. Here at Scottie, 111 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: there's been absolutely no line movement for a Friday night 112 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 1: game in Norman where the number nine Alabama Crimson tie. 113 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 1: They are still one and a half point favorites. We 114 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: were seeing kind of flip flopping across the board where 115 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 1: they were favored, they were underdogs. We kind of always 116 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: thought they would come in here as the favorites against 117 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: the eighth ranked Oklahoma Sooners. Bama, they have questionable their 118 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 1: h back Josh Quavis. Also out for them is their 119 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:39,799 Speaker 1: RB three Kevin Riley, their defensive end, and their left tackle. 120 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 1: We also have some depth issues for them at cornerback. 121 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: The Sooners, meanwhile, they're pretty good across the board. No 122 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: new injuries to report on, except they may get back 123 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: their running back Javonte Barnes, who has missed most of 124 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: the seasons. I don't know if he'll get a full 125 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: workload even if he's out there. BP rejections right now, 126 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 1: we have this at a pick them, so I think 127 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 1: I'll with them Bogs. Like I do believe Bama is 128 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: the better team. They're more well rounded. I think I 129 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: think they're not gonna get swept by OU. But their 130 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 1: lack of a run game, it's real, man. They cannot 131 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: run the ball really with anyone right now. And it 132 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: feels like going up against one of the nation's best defenses. 133 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: It gives me a little bit of hesitation. So how 134 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: do you see this one going, Scotti? 135 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna stick with my original thought process in 136 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: this game. And I've listened to a lot of opinions 137 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 2: on this game, on every game over the course of 138 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 2: the last week. We've seen a lot of content come 139 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,240 Speaker 2: out about these games, of course, but I just stick 140 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 2: to what we saw in the first game. And yes, 141 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 2: we did see a bad performance by Alabama in that game, 142 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 2: but offensively, it was a worse performance for Oklahoma. I 143 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 2: mean Bama had four hundred and six yards two hundred 144 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 2: and twelve for Oklahoma. That was thirty four to twenty 145 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 2: eight possession of twenty five thirty two. Oh you had 146 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: six punts and five penalties or only four punts and 147 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: two penalties for Bama in that game. Oh you was 148 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 2: three thirteen on third downs. Like all, if you look 149 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,919 Speaker 2: at the backs, at the box score, you would have 150 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: no idea that Alabama lost this game, right, And I 151 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 2: think I'm going to stick with that. I will say 152 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 2: it's not with you know, a mountain of confidence here. 153 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 2: I think this is going to be a very razor 154 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 2: thin game, right. A big play, a big mistake one 155 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: way or the other is going to be the difference 156 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 2: in this game. And Alabama is a little bit more 157 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 2: beat up, but I think they are the better team. 158 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 2: So I think with extra time to prepare, I think 159 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 2: Ty Simpson is going to play his best game in 160 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 2: about a month here and they are going to move 161 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 2: to the next round. The next round will be tough 162 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 2: for them against Indiana, but I do like them in 163 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: this game against Oklahoma. Oklahoma, you know, Norman, in a 164 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 2: playoff game, it's going to be a lot of it's 165 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: going to be a great atmosphere for them, So they 166 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: do have that advantage and I do expect this one 167 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: to be razor thin. But I'm on the Crimson tide here, 168 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 2: and you know, take it with a grain of salt 169 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: because I hate the Sooners, but I do respect them 170 00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 2: and they've had a great year and I picked them 171 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: against the in Alabama the first time, so I'm going 172 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: to go with Alabama this time. I just think this 173 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 2: is gonna be a different result. 174 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you there, bugs, Like, I really think 175 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: probably Bama does slide out ahead. But I think, as 176 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: you mentioned, it's razor thin, right. I see this one 177 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: going twenty one to twenty. I think it's a low 178 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 1: scoring I think that total is kind of in the 179 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: right place. But for me, I'm actually going to go 180 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: with a teaser route for this Bogs, and I'm gonna 181 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: teaser this total up to forty eight and a half 182 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go under that for the first leg 183 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: of this teaser and then I'll talk about the second 184 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: leg later on. But only two times has an OU 185 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: game this season gone over forty eight and a half points. 186 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: That was against Ole Miss and Tennessee, who I believe 187 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: both have two of the best offenses in the country, 188 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,600 Speaker 1: especially because they're much more efficient with the run game 189 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: and in the past game as well than Alabama is. 190 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: In Bama right now, they haven't cleared this total in 191 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: four of their last four SEC games. Only two of 192 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 1: their nine conference games this season have gone over this total. 193 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 1: So I just don't see this being a shootout. Specifically 194 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: being in Norman. I think also will help Oklahoma. The 195 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: only way I think Oklahoma gets the wind Bogs is 196 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,480 Speaker 1: if Jo Matier capes up, and I just don't Yeah, 197 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: he can do that game. 198 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm with you. I like to play on 199 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 2: this under as well. I think, you know, Alabama is 200 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 2: very one dimensional, as you mentioned, they passed the ball 201 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 2: a lot and they haven't had an effective run game, 202 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 2: so it does make them easier to attack. So you know, 203 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,599 Speaker 2: I like the undercall in this one as well. I 204 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 2: think this has played pretty tight. 205 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,160 Speaker 1: If Justice Haynes was here, I think this would be 206 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: a really different Alabama team this season. I think they 207 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 1: could be like legitimately like championship contenders, but without him, 208 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: I'm good on it. And a reminder as well that 209 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 1: with this college football playoff action starting on Friday, December nineteenth, 210 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: the betting pros are going live for it.

I 233 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 2: love it. But I think this is going to be 234 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 2: a lot of fun, and I'm excited to stream live. 235 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 2: It's all is fun, you know.

So I'm a 239 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 2: veteran of live games. Hopefully we can get our times 240 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 2: to sync. That's gonna be big on our stream here, 241 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 2: seth that you got the upgraded Internet, like, we're ready 242 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 2: to rock and roll styles. Yeah, let's show, let's let's 243 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 2: let's get everything going. So I am absolutely excited for that. 244 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,200 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a good time. 245 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 1: Absolutely man looking forward to it. And before we get 246 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: to that, though, we have a bunch of more games 247 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: to break down bogs and it starts where we actually haven't. 248 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:38,959 Speaker 1: Also seen a ton of line movement in College Station 249 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 1: for the noon showdown. With the tenth ranked Miami Hurricanes 250 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: still between a two and a half and three and 251 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: a half point dog to the seventh ranked Texas A 252 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: and m Aggie's Miami, they are expected to get back 253 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: their nickel cornerback Keante Scott. This guy is a stud 254 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: and he's been out really for most of the back 255 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: half the season, suffered an injury in early November. A 256 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: and M their only question mark on the injury front 257 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: is whether running back leve On Moss will return after 258 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 1: missing the last eight games. I don't know if you 259 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 1: will or won't. Like I think that might have been 260 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: a season ender, but I appreciate the gamesmanship from Mike 261 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 1: Elko in this one. BP projections Right now we have 262 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,320 Speaker 1: this line at two and a half points. So Boggs, 263 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: do you still see value on the Canes at anything 264 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 1: over a field goal? 265 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's I think it's Miami here, man. 266 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 2: I'm just I think they went on the road, and 267 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: it's weird to take the two road teams when you 268 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 2: work all year to get this home field advantage, and 269 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 2: I'm kind of throwing it out the window. But my 270 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 2: concern with A and M and again, this is going 271 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 2: to be a very close game where mistakes are going 272 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 2: to be the name of the game. 273 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 3: Right. 274 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 2: But I think what we saw with A and M 275 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 2: was they played a baby soft schedule in the SEC 276 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 2: until they face Texas, and Texas kind of exposed them. Now, 277 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 2: maybe I'm overreacting to this game. We've seen some tough 278 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 2: games from Miami earlier this year as well, but I 279 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 2: think really they've gelled down the stretch. I I don't 280 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 2: trust Mario Cristobal very much, right, But I don't trust 281 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 2: Elco either in a game spot like this. And I 282 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: really think it's going to come down to which defense 283 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 2: makes a bigger impact, Right, I'm gonna go with Ruben 284 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 2: Bain and a Kee mezidor like I think these guys 285 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 2: are going to tilt the favor into Miami's hands. We've 286 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 2: seen Marcel Reid make some mistakes whin he's pressured. Now, look, 287 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 2: we've also seen him, you know, pull that ball down 288 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 2: and run out the gate for long touchdowns, right, So 289 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: he can make some big plays in this game. I'm 290 00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,680 Speaker 2: not trying to take that away. That's why this game 291 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 2: is a field goal game for the team at home, 292 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 2: the team that only lost one game this entire season. Right. 293 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 2: But I do think Texas is kind of built similarly 294 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 2: to Miami. Very good defense, specifically on the defensive line, 295 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 2: and I think when you put pressure on Marcel Reid 296 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 2: and force him into mistakes, you can take advantage of that. Now, 297 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 2: Carson Beck makes massive mistakes as well, and we've seen 298 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 2: him do this in crunch time, so he's not above 299 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 2: you know, he's not above reproach here at all. There 300 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 2: are definitely downside to him, but he has been I 301 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 2: think with all of his experience, he is going to 302 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 2: be way more calm. I feel like all the pressure 303 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 2: because Miami just snuck in, right, I feel like all 304 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 2: the pressure is on A and M. It's battered aggie syndrome. 305 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 2: It's a home game, right, It's all of this pressure 306 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: is on the AGGI He's like, Okay, we spent all 307 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: this money, we got our coach, now we have to win. 308 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 2: I could easily see a letdown of Miami is a 309 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 2: very good team to face in the first round. I mean, 310 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 2: just beat Texas and you have a bye week A 311 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 2: and M. But this is the nature of the Beast, 312 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 2: and I think that loss to Texas is really going 313 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 2: to end up hurting them in the end. And I 314 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 2: am a Texas fan, so again, take that with a 315 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 2: grain of salt if you wish. But I'm trying to 316 00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 2: speak from a neutral spot here right where. I just 317 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 2: saw them get exposed a little bit. They got exposed 318 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 2: South Carolina in the first half as well. Now Marcel 319 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 2: Reid is good enough to make that comeback. Is he 320 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 2: able to do that against the Miami defense if they 321 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 2: get down. I just doubt it. So I'm gonna take 322 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 2: Miami in this game straight up and plus the points. 323 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: This just feels like, you know, when you're at that 324 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: point in your life where you have a toxic X 325 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: and then he get involved with another relationship turns out 326 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 1: they're also a toxic person as well, and then you 327 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: have two toxic exes. Like that's how I feel, because, 328 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 1: like Carson Beck, I can't trust this guy in a 329 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 1: big spot, man, especially against an SEC defense, albeit one 330 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: of the softer ones. And like kind of seeing with 331 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: Marcel Reid, right, like, what is Marcel Reid ever done 332 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: in a big game? He had his biggest game a 333 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: couple weeks ago against Texas and he kind of folded 334 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: like in oorrigami, right, And you know, credit to him 335 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: for coming back against South Carolina back there earlier in November. 336 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: But I don't know, man, this one's really tough because 337 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: I love Miami like in this spot, like I really do. 338 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: Like you said, they're playing with house money, nothing to lose. 339 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 1: Malakai Tony I think is maybe the best offensive player 340 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 1: on the field, which is crazy because this guy's like 341 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 1: eighteen years old, right, But I also think they have 342 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 1: the best front or one of the best fronts in 343 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: college football in Miami. So I do lean Miami. I 344 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: just can't bet it, man, I have a role. I 345 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: don't go back. I was burned by Carson Back mid 346 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: season with Georgia last year, and I said, I'll never 347 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 1: bet on Carson Beck again. I got to follow through 348 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: at least for one more game here. 349 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 2: Well, look, you have two games at most left for 350 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 2: Carson Beck, because the winner of this game is gonna 351 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 2: get to play Ohio State, I mean in the Cotton Bowl, 352 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 2: so A and m would have, you know, a nice 353 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 2: home field to go on. 354 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: I'm trying to win so I can fade him next week. 355 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 1: That's what was baby. 356 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 2: Yes, I feel the same way. 357 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: So all right, Well let's go ahead and move forward 358 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: where things remain really really quiet on the odds front. 359 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: For a three point thirty matchup in Oxford, where the 360 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: number six ole Miss Rebels. They host their first college 361 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: football playoff game to date as seventeen to seventeen and 362 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,919 Speaker 1: a half point favors over the eleventh seed two lane 363 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 1: Green Wave TWU lane. They should have everybody up for 364 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: this game. Ole Miss should also be at full health. 365 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: They also got four assistant coaches back that Lane Kiffen 366 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: allowed to return to prepare for this game. BP projections. 367 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 1: Right now, we have this line at nearly twenty points. 368 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: So are you willing to lay at least seventeen seventeen 369 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 1: and a half points with the ReBs in their first 370 00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: game under Pete Goulding. 371 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,679 Speaker 2: I'm back in Mississippi again. Here. This game was forty 372 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,919 Speaker 2: five to ten. I know that there are extenuating circumstances 373 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 2: with the coaching staff, obviously, but Charlie Weis's coming in, 374 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 2: I think is going to just keep this flowing for 375 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 2: at least another week against Tulane. If they were playing 376 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 2: they were playing Miami, if they're playing A and M, 377 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 2: if they're playing Oregon, I feel like I want to 378 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 2: pick against ole Miss, but it's just it's gonna have 379 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 2: to wait until next week when they go play Georgia. 380 00:17:59,480 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 3: Right. 381 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 2: I don't think that this game is going to be 382 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 2: particularly close. In the last matchup, again, it was a 383 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 2: while ago, and Tulane has gotten better. I would say 384 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 2: ole Miss has gotten better since this game as well, 385 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 2: though Tulane held the ball longer and they had two 386 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 2: hundred and eighty two yards to five hundred and forty eight. 387 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 2: The biggest difference in this game is that Toulane's defense 388 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,160 Speaker 2: is not going to be able to stop Ole Miss 389 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 2: even without Lane Kiffen, Right. I just think Shambliss is 390 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 2: too much. I think Lacy is too much. I think 391 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 2: that this defensive line is obviously good enough to hold 392 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 2: Jake Retz laugh. In the passing game, they had one 393 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 2: hundred and four yards passing in the game. Last time 394 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: they went four on three fourth downs, they were zero 395 00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 2: for three. I just I don't see the path to 396 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,879 Speaker 2: Tulane making this a close game. So it's going to 397 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:51,960 Speaker 2: be Ole missing a walk from me, This one is 398 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 2: not going to be very close. 399 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, Rett's loss a fun story, right, you know 400 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: it goes to BYU has the magical season out there 401 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 1: with the Cougars. Then you know, who knows what happened 402 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 1: in the offseason. He ends up here too Lane because 403 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,120 Speaker 1: of it and takes them on a wild run into 404 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 1: the CFP. So good for Jakes Retzel it is. But 405 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: I just think this Old Miss defense is too good 406 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:15,439 Speaker 1: and he's going to really struggle against them. I mean, 407 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: he struggled against some of the top defenses in the 408 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: Big twelve A year ago. So for me, like, I'm 409 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:23,719 Speaker 1: gonna actually opt for the Old Miss aultline minus thirteen 410 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: and a half bogs and with some of these boots 411 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,679 Speaker 1: that we're gonna see get out there over the weekend. 412 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:29,680 Speaker 1: This is minus one sixty four right now. I bet 413 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: you can probably get a fifty to fifty boost on that, 414 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,919 Speaker 1: so you could probably you could probably get this for 415 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 1: a round minus one twenty five, minus one thirty something 416 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,360 Speaker 1: like that. That's gonna be my play. I just don't 417 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 1: want to go anything over two touchdowns in this one, 418 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: just because it is a little weird. But like you said, 419 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: Charlie Weiss Junior, who gotta say, every time I see 420 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: this guy, he's just like a skinny version of his dad. Yeah, 421 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: he looks just like him. Luckily he's obviously been in 422 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,400 Speaker 1: the gym a bit more than Old Senior was, right, 423 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: But uh, you know, credit to Ole Miss for maintaining 424 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 1: some identity. And I just think like, at the end 425 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: of the day, someone like Trendad Chambliss, whether he's auditioning 426 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: for a new program or not, or whether he's gonna 427 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: stay committed to Old Miss, he's got a lot to 428 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 1: play for. And when you have one of the best 429 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 1: backs in the entire country. I don't think that's gonna 430 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,239 Speaker 1: get stopped by what, in my opinion, is not the 431 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: best team in the G five and two lane despite 432 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:21,360 Speaker 1: them being here. 433 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: And we keep talking about the distractions that Ole miss 434 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 2: has had with Lane KIFFI Lee, John Sumrall's leaving as well. Sure, 435 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 2: when the clock said zero in this game, he's out 436 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:34,320 Speaker 2: the door to Florida. So uh, I mean that obviously 437 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 2: has to affect Tulane a little bit as well. So like, 438 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: if this was just Lane Kiffin leaving and that was it, 439 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 2: and you have this team singularly focused on this game, 440 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 2: then great, But there's a lot of guys that are 441 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 2: gonna leave Tulane as well, maybe going to Florida, maybe 442 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 2: going to other programs. So I just think both teams 443 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 2: could be distracted. And I'm going to lean on talent. 444 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 2: And we've already seen this game once it was dominated 445 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 2: by Mississippi. It's got to be all missed for me. 446 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 1: Is there a big pipeline between two lane and LSU? Look, 447 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:04,959 Speaker 1: I would just assume there is. 448 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't I haven't looked up the history 449 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 2: of it. Yeah, sure, I mean I wouldn't doubt it. 450 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just feel like these two lane players are 451 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 1: gonna get picked off. I mean, most good G five 452 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 1: players really do ye in this, you know, college football 453 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: and you get more money. I just think, you know, 454 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: there's a guy in Lane Kiffin who he might have 455 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: his eyes on this game. 456 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 2: Didn't he post the the Trinidad flag the other day 457 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 2: as well? 458 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 1: Yes? Yeah, so so I don't only think he'll be 459 00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: rooting for his former team, but I also think he'll 460 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: be scouting potentially some two lane Green Wave players to 461 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: make potential small offer to in the portal. 462 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 2: I gotta be honest, Shambles should go to l SU, right, 463 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,159 Speaker 2: Like you came up from Division two and Lane Kiffin 464 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 2: put you in and kept you there at that spot. 465 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 2: I mean, why wouldn't you go? Uh if he's getting 466 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:53,440 Speaker 2: an offer. 467 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: It's like a cam Ward story, right Yeah? 468 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, keep moving, Go where the money is and what 469 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 2: is going to boost your NFL stock the most. And 470 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 2: I don't think sticking at Old miss Wood. I think 471 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 2: going to LSU and being impressive there would help him 472 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 2: out a lot. Now going to Ole Miss and getting 473 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 2: bench or going to LSU and getting bench though, yeah, 474 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 2: that would hurt you a lot as well, so he 475 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 2: does have a decision to make for sure. 476 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,120 Speaker 1: Got to take care of the family, right, Gotta take 477 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: my family just like just like old Vince. Oh, geez 478 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: slip the guy from Fast and Fears. Who am I 479 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 1: thinking of? Oh Vin Diesel Vin Diesel. There you go, family. 480 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 1: I want to say Vince Vonn at first, so that 481 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:34,159 Speaker 1: would be of you a little bit of a weird, 482 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: a weird position I. 483 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 2: Can think of inappropriate Vince Vaughn lines to say, so 484 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 2: I won't say any. 485 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 1: Of them fair enough. We have these spread somewhat shrinking 486 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 1: for a Saturday night showdown in Eugene, with the fifth 487 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,439 Speaker 1: seed Oregon Ducks laying between twenty and a half and 488 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: twenty one and a half points on the twelve seed, 489 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: James Madison, Duke's jam You at full strength, Oregon's wide 490 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: receivers Gary Bryant, Junior Decoryan, and even Evan Stewart, who 491 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: has been out all seasons with a knee injury. They 492 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: were seen pre practice stretching on Monday. No confirmation whether 493 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,199 Speaker 1: they'll be up or not, but take that for what 494 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 1: it's worth. The media only got to see fifteen minutes 495 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: of that practice, we did see Bryant, Junior, More and 496 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: Stuarts all out on the field BP projections. Right now 497 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:25,560 Speaker 1: we have this line under sixteen points, so without movement, 498 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: I think there's still some value on the Dukes. But Boggs, 499 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: you wanted to see this, maybe go the other way, 500 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: see if we could get a twenty three and a half, 501 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 1: maybe a twenty four and a half we didn't. Are 502 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: you willing to get invested at twenty one and a half? 503 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 2: You know this game. I think I'm probably out on 504 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 2: I don't like twenty one and a half points, but 505 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,960 Speaker 2: I can tell you there's just not a chance that 506 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,160 Speaker 2: I would take James Madison here. I don't care how 507 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:54,679 Speaker 2: many points it is. Really I think that Oregon, specifically, 508 00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 2: if they get all three of those, if Evan Stuart 509 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 2: plays in this game too, which would be shocking, I 510 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 2: guess not shocking for the time that he's missed, but 511 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 2: it would be surprising to see him get up. But 512 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,400 Speaker 2: I mean, hey, give him a handful in this game 513 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 2: because you don't really need him to be JMU and 514 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 2: you know, keep him healthy for the next two games. 515 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 2: I think that's what you would want, like get him 516 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: back acclimated in this one. But this is just a 517 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:25,879 Speaker 2: massive difference in talent level. To me, like Oregon just 518 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 2: one of your better rosters. You know their roster strength 519 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 2: is thirteenth in the nation right now, sixty third for 520 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 2: JMU great sum belt team, very fun team, but eight 521 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 2: and five against the spread. Oregon was also eight and four, 522 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 2: right Obviously, the strength is schedule much much more difficult 523 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 2: for Oregon thirty eighth to one hundred and ninth for 524 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 2: James Madison statistically better almost everywhere outside of like total defense, 525 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,119 Speaker 2: and again you can see the difference in the strength 526 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 2: of schedule there between these two teams. We saw jam 527 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 2: you play Washington State close, and that was a home game. 528 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 2: The level of difference that you are stepping into between 529 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,879 Speaker 2: Oregon and Washington State is at least twenty one and 530 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 2: a half points, so I know they won that game. 531 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 2: They also had a nice pick six in that one, 532 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 2: to see what I think. If they don't get that, 533 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 2: they probably don't beat Washington State. Oregon is leaps and 534 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 2: bounds better than that team. A lot on the line. Again, 535 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 2: Chesney on his way out going to UCLA as well. 536 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 2: Dan Lanning is reafirmed Dan Lanning even shot down NFL 537 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,639 Speaker 2: rumors this week. I don't know if you heard about that, 538 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 2: but he said, I used to have it up on 539 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 2: my board of accomplishments, and I've taken it off because 540 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 2: I love this job at Oregon so much now whatever 541 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 2: coach blah blah blah, but he wants to win a 542 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 2: Natty at Oregon before he does anything else in his career, 543 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 2: and I think that is what he's going for here. 544 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 2: I think they're the most dangerous team playing in this 545 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 2: round right now, and I don't think this game is 546 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 2: going to be close at all. I understand the crying 547 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 2: that people have about like these aren't the twelve best 548 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 2: teams and all that. I have no issues with JMU 549 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 2: being in over Notre Dame. Is Notre Dame a better team? Yeah? 550 00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 2: They probably are. Win your games then, you know, and 551 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 2: schedule harder and win games. So I would have been 552 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 2: saying the same thing if they decided to put Notre 553 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 2: Dame in over Miami, I'd be saying the same thing. 554 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 2: There is this going to be a close game. 555 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:21,159 Speaker 3: No? 556 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 2: Is it going to be an entertaining game? Probably not 557 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 2: unless you're betting on the over or under of you 558 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 2: know Oregon's team total and jmu's under it's not going 559 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 2: to be particularly close game. I think it's going to 560 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 2: get ugly. But JMU deserve to be here. They won 561 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 2: the games in front of them, so I like it. 562 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 2: I hope that it's closer than I'm saying it's not 563 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 2: going to be. Oregon is going to beat down this 564 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 2: team going into the next round. 565 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 1: I think what you think of this game and what 566 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: you think of James Madison really depends, like where are 567 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 1: they on the like actual national level, because we've seen 568 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 1: teams like Washington who at least stayed in the fight 569 00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: against them for a little while. Right, didn't put up 570 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 1: a top points, but stay in the fight, kept it 571 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: somewhat close within a score or two for most of 572 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: that game. And what did they have success to him? 573 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 1: Well running the ball right. And you look at what 574 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: Iowa did that one day out there in Iowa City 575 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:13,119 Speaker 1: when the Ducks came to town and a lot of 576 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: people had them on upset alert. You're myself included, Right, 577 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: what did they do well? They ran the ball pretty well, right, 578 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: Gronowski got out, he got in for a score. We 579 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: saw Molten go for eighty seven yards as well. I 580 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: think that's kind of the recipe for JAMU here. 581 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 2: They held the ball to thirty three to twenty in 582 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 2: that game. 583 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: And so for me, this isn't my second leg of 584 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,920 Speaker 1: that teaser I brought up earlier again that first like 585 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: Alabama versus Oklahoma, I'm going under forty and a half. 586 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 1: The second leg, I'm taking JMU plus twenty eight and 587 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 1: a half points. That is where I'm going. This is 588 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 1: given me minus one thirty five. I have multiple, multiple, multiple, multiple, 589 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: multi more units on it. This is my favorite bet 590 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 1: of the week in here bogs and really like, like. 591 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 2: That's over four touchdowns though, I mean that's significantly higher 592 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 2: than the line. So yes, yes, I think, yeah, if 593 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 2: you're gonna put a bunch of units on it, altered 594 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 2: to that absolutely, So yeah. 595 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 1: I just think with Oregon like they in my mind, 596 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: I really don't think those receivers are playing or I 597 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: just at least don't think like maybe Bryant comes back 598 00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: in plays because it seems like his injury was less 599 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 1: worse than more who missed pretty much all the last 600 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,639 Speaker 1: four games of the season, and of course Evan Stewart 601 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,720 Speaker 1: who missed the entire season. I don't think they bring 602 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: them back at least at a full capacity for this time. 603 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,159 Speaker 2: They don't need them. They won't they won't have to 604 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 2: have them exactly. 605 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 1: So I think with that, and like what's Oregon had 606 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,840 Speaker 1: success with lately, it's been running the ball with no 607 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: Winnington and then check down to Sadik Like that's really 608 00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:36,679 Speaker 1: kind of been their offense last few weeks. So I 609 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,080 Speaker 1: just don't see a lot of explosion in this game 610 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 1: unless it's like someone like no Winnington taking off for 611 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:43,959 Speaker 1: a sixty yard house called, which he can do that 612 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: he has those wheels. But I just think, jmu, they 613 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: like to run the ball. They're gonna burn some clock 614 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: here and not let Oregon get over twenty and a half. 615 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: So that's my play. I'm going with a teaser bet. 616 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: We'll see how this goes. And yeah, that's what I'm 617 00:28:56,240 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: rocking and rolling with there, So bugs that is going 618 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: to be it for the call Football playoff discussion. I 619 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 1: do want to move us to the bowl games though. 620 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: Bowl season has been super fun so far. Let's see 621 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,479 Speaker 1: if we can get some more entertaining games. And it 622 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 1: starts with maybe one of my favorite bowls in particular, 623 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: which is the Myrtle Beach Bowl. Of course, this is 624 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 1: coming with Kanansas State and Western Michigan. Western Michigan of 625 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: course being that MAC champion at nine and four overall. 626 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: Kanasas State, they are also a champion of their conference 627 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: coming out of Conference USA after just honestly coming out 628 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: of the FCS not too long ago, right, So, Kanisas State. 629 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 1: They come into this one after a really nice comeback 630 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: victory over Jacksonville State in that title game. Western Michigan 631 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 1: controlled pretty much the entire game against Miami Ohio in 632 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,719 Speaker 1: that MAC championship game. They also beat their rival Eastern 633 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 1: Michigan the week prior, and now they have five straight wins. 634 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: So it's been a really strong season. Four Western Michigan. 635 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 1: You know how I feel about this run game, Bogs. 636 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: I think it is fantastic. However, we do have some 637 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 1: opt outs that could potentially and some injuries that potentially 638 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: hurt Western Michigan. First of all, their defensive end, the 639 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,479 Speaker 1: Dommy Tucker, he is potentially opting out. We also then 640 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: have running back Jaden Buckley. He hurt his hand before 641 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: that MAC title game. I'm expecting he probably will still 642 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: be up for this one. And then on the opt 643 00:30:22,600 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: out side for Kennessa State, we have their cornerback. Caleb offered, 644 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: who I'm expecting he is gonna play? Is that what 645 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:29,480 Speaker 1: we're hearing, Bogs? 646 00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, the all conferences? 647 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: Yeah okay, and that is actually Jerika watching. 648 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's gonna play, for sure, he's transferring, but he's 649 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 2: gonna play the ball game, so okay. 650 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: And then no real big injuries that haven't been new 651 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 1: for Kennessas State. So pretty much what you see is 652 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 1: what you get with these type of games right here, Bogs. 653 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 1: I love Western Michigan because I love their defense. I 654 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:53,959 Speaker 1: love what they've been doing this season with the ground 655 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:57,720 Speaker 1: and pound style. However, it scares me here because we've 656 00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 1: talked about it before on the show, Bogs. They typically 657 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: get behind in games right Western Michigan, and beside from 658 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,880 Speaker 1: that MAX Championship game, usually it's a claw their way back. 659 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: Kennesa Stay a very lethal passing offense, one of the 660 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: best pass catcher receiver combos coming out of the entire 661 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: G five area of the country. So I don't want 662 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: to get invested with this one. Do you have a play? Yeah? 663 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 2: I like the under in this game more than anything, 664 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 2: and I also like Kennesaw State as well. It's been 665 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 2: a miracle season for them right they they won their conference. 666 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 2: They're in a nice bowl game here against another conference 667 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 2: winner in Western Michigan as well, and they have been 668 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 2: clicking with Odum at the helm. And we haven't heard 669 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 2: anything about ed Rusher Nadami Tucker yet playing in this game. 670 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 2: It looks like he's going to play, so but that 671 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 2: would be a massive loss. He was huge, by far 672 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 2: their best defensive player for Western Michigan. If he doesn't play, 673 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 2: and you know, I mean, the guy is going with 674 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 2: the draft, he shouldn't be playing in this game, but 675 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 2: he may want to finish out with the teammates. And 676 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 2: we've heard nothing yet, so I'm going to assume that 677 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 2: he's going to play here. But my main concern for 678 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 2: Western Michigan is exactly what you mentioned, Seth. It's if 679 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 2: Kennisaw State moves early twenty fourth highest piece in the 680 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 2: country this year, if they score the ball and move 681 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 2: the ball early, I don't think that brock Lowry has 682 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 2: the chops to play catch up in this game against 683 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 2: Kennessauw State. So that's why I like Kannisas State. However, 684 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 2: the defense is so good for Western Michigan. I do 685 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 2: think that this is going to be a lower scoring game. 686 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 2: This is you know, Western Michigan's offense is slow moving, 687 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 2: grind you down, score on the fourth quarter. But if 688 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 2: you're not getting that and you have to pass, Brock 689 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 2: Lowry has seven passing touchdowns this year. He has fourteen 690 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 2: rushing touchdowns. So this is basically a triple option that 691 00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:49,440 Speaker 2: Western Michigan is running here. So you know, I like 692 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,640 Speaker 2: the under. Western Michigan drags teams in the mud. They 693 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 2: haven't allowed more than twelve points since the end of October, 694 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 2: and only Miami, Ohio and North Texas put up more 695 00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 2: than twenty one on them the entire season. We saw 696 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 2: Jacksonville State slow down Kennesaw a bit, and I think 697 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 2: Western Michigan will be able to keep them low but 698 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 2: also have issue struggling themselves. So the under is my 699 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,040 Speaker 2: favorite this game. The toll right now forty nine and 700 00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 2: a half. We have it at forty three point seven. 701 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 2: Through are significantly under that total, and I like Kannessas 702 00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 2: State to win the game. But my play here is 703 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 2: going to be the under. Forty nine and a half. 704 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's probably the right play like, the 705 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: only thing that Kanessas State can't have happen is to 706 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,239 Speaker 1: just have Western Michigan's run game go wild on this one, right, 707 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 1: because their rushing attack has really been what's feeding this 708 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 1: offense and Kanisas State one hundred and second in rushing defense. However, 709 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: they handle themselves with cook right like like they did 710 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,920 Speaker 1: out there with Jacksonville State, who has a really lethal 711 00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 1: run game as well. So I think you might appeal 712 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 1: and they can catch up this one. 713 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 2: Kennesau can catch up if they get behind. Western Michigan cannot, 714 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 2: so even if they're grinding them down for three quarters, 715 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 2: they have enough birth plays for Kannessas State to get 716 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,160 Speaker 2: back in that game if it's low score. 717 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: And a Friday filled with college football continues at the 718 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: gasprillable for Memphis versus the NC State wolf Pack. This 719 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: is at two thirty pm Eastern time. Right now. We 720 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:16,440 Speaker 1: are seeing Memphis really anywhere from a four and a 721 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 1: half point dog all the way to a five and 722 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: a half at some books as well. So a lot 723 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 1: of movements still happening with this one, and part of 724 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 1: that movement probably does have to deal with the coaching 725 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: changes in this one. Ryan Silverfield. Of course, he's leaving 726 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: for the Arkansas job. That will mean Reggie Howard will 727 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 1: serve as the interim He is the dB coach. Hey 728 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,919 Speaker 1: dB coaches speaking up here from a Penn State fan. 729 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: Not too bad as an interrum. But we also have 730 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: the Huff Daddy, Charles Huff, who will be likely in 731 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,720 Speaker 1: the building for this one. He's coming from Southern miss 732 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: He was at Marshall the year before. He will be 733 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:54,520 Speaker 1: the new head coach for Memphis moving forward. Kind of 734 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: a bit of an odd hire to me, honestly, just 735 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,279 Speaker 1: because you know, he's only been with a couple of 736 00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: programs for a year or so. Jump ship. But Memphis 737 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: right now their injuries. Brendan lewis their quarterback. He's been 738 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: hit or miss all season long as far as availability, 739 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 1: as far as what he's gonna be as far as 740 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 1: one hundred percent or not. And then they do have 741 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: a stud right tackle in Travis Burke who missed their 742 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 1: finale game, and a couple of cornerbacks who've been out 743 00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 1: really for the last month or so. We are expecting 744 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: four NC State most of their potential opt outs to 745 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,360 Speaker 1: be in and play for this game. With who's healthy 746 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: they have a couple two deep members who are gonna 747 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:35,319 Speaker 1: be banged up for this one though, so Bogs. This 748 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:39,360 Speaker 1: is another one where if we had all the coaching staffs, 749 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: if we had all the players, I think this would 750 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,879 Speaker 1: be a really fun game. I just don't know if 751 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 1: I can trust Memphis in this spot, particularly with how 752 00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 1: they played kind of down the stretch light right, like 753 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 1: losing the dam, lost to East Carolina, They didn't look 754 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: great at times against Tulane like so, I just think 755 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: I'm okay on missing this one. What side of the 756 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:00,839 Speaker 1: boat are you getting it on though? 757 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:02,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll be on the wolf pack here, and I 758 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 2: think you're right. I think the Wheels have come off 759 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,839 Speaker 2: from Memphis at the end of the season here they 760 00:36:06,880 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 2: lost three straight. They really seem to have let the 761 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 2: win come out of their sales when they lost to 762 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 2: Tulane ECU and Navy beat them. After that game, Ryan 763 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,919 Speaker 2: Silverfield left to take the Arkansas job, and now it's 764 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 2: a one off with the Charles Huff being hired with 765 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 2: their their interim coach. Here, Dorin has everybody back and 766 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:31,200 Speaker 2: it looks like but I'll say this, his record in 767 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 2: Bowl games is three and six and joining n C 768 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 2: State with five straight losses as well. I think this 769 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 2: one can be different though for NC State that it 770 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 2: really looks like they're getting a lot of players to 771 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:49,959 Speaker 2: stay like Washington did. But because we just we haven't 772 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 2: heard like smothers leaving and a lot of those other 773 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,040 Speaker 2: guys leaving quite yet, I'm gonna lay the points and 774 00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:58,760 Speaker 2: take the team that seems to be the most in textill. 775 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 2: Memphis quarterback Brandon Loue, like you said, has been playing 776 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 2: at less than one hundred percent and the roster might 777 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 2: see some opt outs or phantom injuries with the change 778 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:09,799 Speaker 2: at head coach from Memphis as well, So I'll take 779 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:11,359 Speaker 2: the wolf Pack in leay of the points here. It's 780 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 2: four and a half, so anything less than a touchdown 781 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 2: I think I'm good on NC State here. 782 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 1: Okay, let's get to the s Murph Turf, which will 783 00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: be buzzing in Boise for the famous Idaho Potato Bowl 784 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,440 Speaker 1: on Monday, December twenty second, two pm Eastern times. This one, 785 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 1: we have the six and six Washington Cougars. There were 786 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: in a half to two and a half point dogs 787 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: to the six and six Utah State Aggies Wazoo. They 788 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 1: had a really solid six and six season in what 789 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:40,879 Speaker 1: remained of the Pac twelve, and honestly, Bogs, I'd say 790 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,839 Speaker 1: they had a pretty freaking tough schedule right San Diego State, 791 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: North Texas, Washington, Ole, Miss Virginia, Toledo JMU, So it 792 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: wasn't like they were playing a bunch of cupcakes this year. 793 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 1: And their defense was particularly strong, ranking fourteenth against the 794 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: past twenty ninth against the run. And I'd really like 795 00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 1: this Washington eight team on that defense because they get 796 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,879 Speaker 1: a ton of pressure on the quarterback. They limit big 797 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:08,880 Speaker 1: plays at a top forty rate. Wazoo's head coach Jimmy Rogers, 798 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: though he has left for Ames in the wake of 799 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: a certain coach over there getting hired. Welcome to a 800 00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: happy Gully Baby. We appreciate you, and yes, sir, I 801 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 1: am super excited a. 802 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 2: Great fire for being as laid the process as y'all were. 803 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 1: It saved it, It really did save it. And also 804 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:30,280 Speaker 1: we probably will see more players jump into the portal 805 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:34,239 Speaker 1: after that. But right now we do have questionable to 806 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 1: play in this game. Their cornerback Kenny Worthy, their linebacker 807 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 1: Anthony Palano, and their wide receiver Tony Freeman, who's been 808 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,640 Speaker 1: a bit of a jolt of energy for this team. 809 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:48,960 Speaker 1: Also questionable with injury is their center Brook Dau and 810 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:53,320 Speaker 1: their wide receiver Carter Patel so Utah State. Right now, 811 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: they were six and six on the season, pretty middling 812 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: Mountain West team in Bronco Mendenhall's first season at the Helm. 813 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 1: Their offense was really though, firing and all cylinders under 814 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,919 Speaker 1: Bryson Helm, who had eighteen touchdowns just four interceptions through 815 00:39:07,960 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: the air, also add another seven hundred plus yards on 816 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,239 Speaker 1: the ground nine scores as well with his legs. The 817 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 1: defense though absolutely terrible outside of the top one hunderd 818 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 1: and almost every single metric. So they're gonna be without 819 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:23,360 Speaker 1: their leaning wide receiver Brandon Pagan, who hit the portal 820 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 1: after going over nine hundred yards. Their tight end one 821 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 1: brock Lane, also questionable with an injury. BP projections right 822 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:34,040 Speaker 1: now we have this actually flipped with Wazoo favored by four, 823 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:37,040 Speaker 1: but that was before the Jimmy Rodgers news. So Boggs, 824 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: this is one of those Bowl games where it's just 825 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: a bit too much uncertainty for me to want and 826 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:44,399 Speaker 1: get involved with. I think if I were to get involved, though, 827 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: it would be with Washington State. I think they're the 828 00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: better team. I just don't know how much the head 829 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:51,720 Speaker 1: coach leaving has the impact on this program. 830 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,240 Speaker 2: How about the total seth do you see the total? 831 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 2: Do you like the under fifty two and a half? 832 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,320 Speaker 2: It has to be the under, right, Washington States defense 833 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 2: has been good all year. Utah State is losing their 834 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 2: number one wide receiver, and Wazoo did a good job 835 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 2: against James Madison this year, right, Like we talked about 836 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 2: that a little bit earlier when we talked about James Madison. 837 00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:17,120 Speaker 2: So the d C. Bobbittt is taking over as well. 838 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 2: He will leave to go with Jimmy Rodgers to Iowa 839 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 2: State after this game, So I don't want to trust 840 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:27,880 Speaker 2: the side in this game. Like, I think that it 841 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,879 Speaker 2: could easily be a Utah State win. They are ten 842 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 2: and two against the spread this year as well. We 843 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,520 Speaker 2: like that way better than their six and six records, 844 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:38,760 Speaker 2: So we like that spread record for them for sure. 845 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 2: But I like the under here. You know, obviously it's 846 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 2: not as bad as last year for Washington State when 847 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:49,360 Speaker 2: everybody left, but it's not ideal specifically late in the process. 848 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:54,359 Speaker 2: But you combined the strong defense and the fact that 849 00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 2: Pagan is leaving. Utah State is a number one wide out. 850 00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,279 Speaker 2: I just think Washington State is going to keep this 851 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:05,640 Speaker 2: slow and struggling here. Their pace this year was one 852 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty ninth, Utah States was twenty fifth, right, 853 00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 2: But I just think that Washington State is a team 854 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 2: that grinds their opponent down. They hold onto the ball 855 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 2: and they make it hard to move. I think that's 856 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,080 Speaker 2: gonna happen. I think they're getting get after the quarterback here, 857 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 2: and I think Washington State at least keeps this game 858 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 2: to lower than fifty two and a half. So I'm 859 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:29,479 Speaker 2: gonna go under on this game. 860 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,399 Speaker 1: I think it's sharp. I think that's probably the right 861 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 1: move in this one if you are going to put 862 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 1: some US dollars down on it. Honestly, like, I'm not 863 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 1: a big Mountain West better and I really just don't 864 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 1: know how to handicap Utah State. I'm gonna be frank 865 00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 1: with you, Bogs is like, because like when I've watched 866 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 1: them this season, they put up points like most of 867 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:49,680 Speaker 1: the Mountain West does, right, So it just kind of 868 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 1: scares me. But I do agree. I think the best 869 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:55,720 Speaker 1: overall unit in this game is that Washington State defense, 870 00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 1: so I would want to lean that way with you there. 871 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:00,879 Speaker 2: Mountain West is the big twelve of the G five, 872 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:02,160 Speaker 2: I feel yep. 873 00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 1: No, I think I think it's a great fairs and 874 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 1: I think that's the spot on there. And also the 875 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 1: following day at two Eastern time is an acc MAC 876 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: clash in the Boca Raton Bowl from FAU Stadium. They 877 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: in four Toledo Rockets. They opened as nine and a 878 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: half point underdogs, but they have now moved under a 879 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 1: touchdown to six and a half. Toledo arguably I think 880 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 1: had the top G five defense in the country. They 881 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 1: finished third in total defense. The Rockets were six and 882 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 1: two in the MAC eight and four ats this season, 883 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:33,880 Speaker 1: in the final year of the Jason Kandell era, he 884 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 1: has left for the Yukon job. Still, you know, I 885 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:39,720 Speaker 1: know everyone's you know, kind of papoo me on Twitter, 886 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:41,400 Speaker 1: but I don't know if the Yukon job is that 887 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 1: much better than the Toledo job. You can say what 888 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 1: you want about it, but they will be without their 889 00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 1: defensive end. Malachai Davis, who hit the portal potential opt 890 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:54,080 Speaker 1: outs also include for them their top four defensive backs. 891 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: They're running back Chip Trenham, who was just a monster 892 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,360 Speaker 1: this year over eleven hundred and fifty yards, their leading receiver, 893 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,560 Speaker 1: junior Vander krast the third, plus their starting left tackle 894 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:09,879 Speaker 1: Carter Fully as questionable with an injury Lowville. Meanwhile, they 895 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 1: were also a very strong defensive team, at least from 896 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: ACC standards, coming off a season that looked very promising 897 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 1: at the start. They fell apart late though, going four 898 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 1: and foreign conference play also foreign four ATS record down 899 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 1: the stretch really due to Miller Moss. I would say 900 00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 1: this overall offensive inconsistencies that we saw. They could be 901 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,120 Speaker 1: without their top three running backs, including Isaac Brown, who's 902 00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 1: a monster, their stud wide receiver Chris Bell, he is 903 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 1: also out with an injury after going for over nine 904 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 1: hundred yards this season. Two of their starting defensive linemen 905 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 1: have opted out. Also, their top linebacker questionable BP projections. 906 00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: Right now, we have this at five points. But Box, 907 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,399 Speaker 1: this is just another one, man Like, there's too much 908 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:54,160 Speaker 1: happening here for me to want to get involved this one. 909 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 2: I hate. I really do not like this game. So 910 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 2: and I Toledo, you know me, I know, I know, 911 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:03,839 Speaker 2: but they're missing pieces here, specifically on defense, right potentially, 912 00:44:04,320 --> 00:44:07,799 Speaker 2: we'll see when we get there. But McNeil Warren is 913 00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 2: like he's going to the senior ball. I don't know 914 00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 2: why he would play in this game. They've already had 915 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 2: to opt out of one of their defensive ends as well, 916 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 2: so they are missing pieces. But Louisville might be down 917 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 2: their top three running backs right and no Chris Bell 918 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 2: in this game either, So I think we're gonna have 919 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 2: a low score in this game. Louisville is down maybe 920 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:32,120 Speaker 2: their top three running backs. Toledo's offense has looked nice 921 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 2: this year behind Tucker Gleeson, but this MAX schedule was 922 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 2: super soft if strength of schedule is one hundred and twenty. First, 923 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,440 Speaker 2: they played a soft defensive schedule even by MAX standards. 924 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 2: WKU had the forty eighth highest scoring offense, but the 925 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:48,880 Speaker 2: next highest MAC offense they faced was eighty fifth in 926 00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 2: scoring in Miami. Louisville is also missing two thirds of 927 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 2: their defensive line, Conga and Bailey opting out Cleft Lubin 928 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:58,480 Speaker 2: who led them in snaps on the defensive line as 929 00:44:58,520 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 2: a maybe right now. So I think it's going to 930 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 2: be a closer game than it should be in terms 931 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 2: of roster strength. With those major losses to Louisville. Toledo 932 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 2: is punching up and doing it without their head coach 933 00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 2: as well, so it's just a difficult game for me 934 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,360 Speaker 2: to pick. But I think if we're getting more than 935 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 2: a touchdown, if we're not getting more than a touchdown, 936 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 2: like I'm not taking Louisville right, but if we're if 937 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,239 Speaker 2: we're not getting seven and a half, I'm altering this 938 00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 2: to seven and a half. I want it over a 939 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:30,439 Speaker 2: touchdown for Toledo. Also don't hate going under, but this 940 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,440 Speaker 2: total of forty four and a half might be too low, 941 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 2: so I want to find something to get invested here. 942 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:38,319 Speaker 2: I'm going to alter this to seven and a half 943 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:41,799 Speaker 2: and take Toledo. With all those opt outs for Louisville, 944 00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:44,319 Speaker 2: I just think it's going to be too much. And 945 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,439 Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to get a running back 946 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 2: to play in this game either, so they're probably gonna 947 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 2: be fairly one dimensional. So maybe Toledo six with them, 948 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 2: maybe not. This is not my favorite game. This is 949 00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 2: if I'm in my Bowl confidence group, this one's way 950 00:45:58,040 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 2: at the bottom for me. I do not like this game. 951 00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 1: I just think there are different levels of head coach departures, 952 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:06,880 Speaker 1: like we've talked about a ton tonight man, and I 953 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: just think, like Jason Kandell, he's been the institute right 954 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 1: like say what you want. Is not the most emotional 955 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,399 Speaker 1: guy and he's not a big, raw raw guy that's 956 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:16,719 Speaker 1: gonna get the media fired up with a bunch of quotes. 957 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:17,839 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how many quotes have come 958 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,839 Speaker 1: out of Toledo Weekly anyways, but I mean eleven years there, Yeah, 959 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 1: should he have won some more MAC championships? He only 960 00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:26,359 Speaker 1: had two? Yes, but he was so dang consistent every 961 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:28,000 Speaker 1: single year, it felt like So I just feel like 962 00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 1: this is a really big loss for Toledo. Therefore, I 963 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 1: can't get invested with them. But I do agree with 964 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,600 Speaker 1: you that I think without some of these stars for him, 965 00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:40,080 Speaker 1: like Vander Cross is really good. Their running games certainly 966 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 1: took a big step forward this year when a lot 967 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: of people were thinking it was not going to as well. 968 00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,879 Speaker 1: So I just think with out there starting running back 969 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: out there and Chip is that I just I can't 970 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 1: get invested here. But I think the under is probably 971 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:58,520 Speaker 1: my favorite. Lean Bog's better job Yukon or Toledo. 972 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,120 Speaker 2: Probably Yukon's slightly, But I don't know. 973 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:03,840 Speaker 1: A conference, find a conference. 974 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:05,840 Speaker 2: I don't know. If I uproove my life to go 975 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 2: to Yukon, I think I would probably have made a 976 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 2: waited another year for a better job to open. 977 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 1: Listen, I've been to Connecticut, beautiful state, love the shore 978 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 1: up there. 979 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:17,360 Speaker 2: I mean, if my guy John Lobb heard me saying this, 980 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,440 Speaker 2: he would be very upset with me. But because he's 981 00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 2: a big Yukon guy in a Yukon grat so I 982 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 2: have a lot of respect for Yukon. I do think 983 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 2: it's a slightly better job. I also think living in 984 00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,680 Speaker 2: Connecticut's better than living way better than living in Toledo. 985 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 2: So I'll say that cheaper cost of living in Ohio, baby, 986 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 2: and it's okay, ye'll call her out better chance stab 987 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 2: as well. 988 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 1: So you know, easy easy. 989 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:44,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just you know, Jo. 990 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 1: We head to the Big Easy next for the New 991 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 1: Orleans Bowl, kicking off from the super Dome on December 992 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 1: twenty third at five thirty pm Eastern time. I've been 993 00:47:54,360 --> 00:47:56,239 Speaker 1: pretty gun shy in some of these Bowl games so 994 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 1: far in this slate. Not in this one where we 995 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 1: have the eight and four Western can Tachi Yel toppers. 996 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:02,560 Speaker 1: They are four and a half to five and a 997 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 1: half point favorites over the seven to five Southern Miss 998 00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 1: Golden Eagles. It was another really solid season for WKU. 999 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 1: They finished third in Conference USA six and two in 1000 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 1: conference play, also nine to three ats. WKU once again 1001 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 1: led by the air Raid, ranking twenty fourth in passing. 1002 00:48:20,280 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 1: They did have to switch quarterbacks to Rodney Tisdale Junior 1003 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:28,840 Speaker 1: midway through the Seasonale, I might be Ricky Tisdal. I 1004 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:30,400 Speaker 1: think you think you got me on that one. I 1005 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,400 Speaker 1: think you got me on that one. Their starting quarterback 1006 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 1: Dylan Flowers, though and their RB two Lavelle Wright are 1007 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:40,720 Speaker 1: hitting the portal Southern Miss. Meanwhile, they would have likely 1008 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: been without their starting cornerback Josh Morgan due to an 1009 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 1: opt out and Blake bustered with an injury. And now 1010 00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 1: they also had Charles Huff who just signed a deal 1011 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,439 Speaker 1: with Memphis in the last week. So maybe some more 1012 00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 1: portal opt outs over the past week that we are 1013 00:48:56,800 --> 00:48:58,879 Speaker 1: not aware of right now, box, So this is one 1014 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 1: keep your head on a swivel four. If we do 1015 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: see more Southern Miss players planning not to play, however, 1016 00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 1: like I just gotta be honest, with you, man like, 1017 00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,799 Speaker 1: I think these are two really evenly matched teams as 1018 00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:13,120 Speaker 1: far as all the metrics go. Dude, I just think 1019 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:16,799 Speaker 1: that WKU they finished the season really strong. Yes, it 1020 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 1: was two straight losses, but they were to LSU and 1021 00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:22,320 Speaker 1: Jacksonville State. They lost by and combined six points. Handled 1022 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 1: themselves really good down there in Baton Rouge on a 1023 00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:28,560 Speaker 1: Saturday night. Southern miss They've lost three in a row 1024 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:32,000 Speaker 1: to end the season to Texas State, Southern Alabama, and Troy. 1025 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:35,239 Speaker 1: Troy's really the only decent G five team in that mix. 1026 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:38,400 Speaker 1: Then we had the Huff departure, right, and this is 1027 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 1: just after one year, so I think it's a bit 1028 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 1: of chaos there, right, because they just brought him in. 1029 00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 1: Now he's gone. Blake Anderson the offensive coordinator, he has 1030 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 1: elevated the permanent head coach for twenty twenty six and 1031 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 1: beyond WKU four and two in bowl games under Tyson Helton, 1032 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 1: which is only one of those losses coming to JMU 1033 00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:58,839 Speaker 1: arguably a top three G five team over the past 1034 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,320 Speaker 1: few years. They won buy an average of twelve points 1035 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 1: in that game. So for me, it's go tops. I'm 1036 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,239 Speaker 1: all in. The BP projections do not like this they 1037 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:08,880 Speaker 1: have under a field goal? What do you have it 1038 00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: at Bogs? 1039 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:11,479 Speaker 2: By the way, you're right if Rodney Tysdale not Ricky. 1040 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 2: I don't know why I was thinking it was Ricky. 1041 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:18,400 Speaker 2: It said I've looked up his name basketball player, so 1042 00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 2: maybe I'm mixing that up from a while back. But 1043 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 2: it is Rodney, So my bad on that. But I'm 1044 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:29,240 Speaker 2: gonna take smu here plus the points. And it's because 1045 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 2: I don't really trust either one of these teams, you know, 1046 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:37,040 Speaker 2: I think Rodney. I don't know if Rodney Tisdale is good. 1047 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:40,360 Speaker 2: Southern Miss defense has been better against the past than 1048 00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:44,480 Speaker 2: the run as well, and they rank fourth in turnovers 1049 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:48,440 Speaker 2: this year at plus. I think it was plus eighteen, 1050 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,600 Speaker 2: so no plus more than that because WKU is ninety 1051 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 2: six with eighteen given, so I think maybe it was 1052 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,399 Speaker 2: twenty six that they had for whatever reason, they didn't 1053 00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,120 Speaker 2: write it down. But some of the Miss is good, 1054 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 2: been good enough offense to score points against Western Kentucky. 1055 00:51:03,400 --> 00:51:06,000 Speaker 2: That's not my concern at all with Southern Miss. They 1056 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 2: should be able to stick in this game with a 1057 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:11,480 Speaker 2: high paced offense as well, but we haven't seen opt outs, right. 1058 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:15,479 Speaker 2: Charles huff Is leaving to take this Memphis job. Oc 1059 00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:18,960 Speaker 2: Blake Anderson is taking over. So I'll say, right now 1060 00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 2: my pick is going to be Southern Miss because we're 1061 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 2: getting points, right, That's the only reason I really like them. 1062 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:26,000 Speaker 2: I want the team. When I don't trust both the teams, 1063 00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:29,080 Speaker 2: I just want to take the points. But if Brayln 1064 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,720 Speaker 2: Braxton leaves and he doesn't play in this game, which 1065 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 2: we'll know more by the time we get there, we 1066 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,360 Speaker 2: haven't heard anything about him leaving. Now, if he leaves, 1067 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 2: I think Southern Miss crumbles. So right now, it's going 1068 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 2: to be Southern Miss. But like I said, it's with 1069 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 2: that a lot of con I don't nearly have the 1070 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:46,480 Speaker 2: confidence you have about this game and your boy Rodney 1071 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:51,640 Speaker 2: Tisdale in this one. But I will take SMU just 1072 00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,200 Speaker 2: because I'm getting the points here. 1073 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:56,120 Speaker 1: Look, I get it, and thank you for putting a 1074 00:51:56,160 --> 00:52:01,120 Speaker 1: little respect on my boy Rodney's in there. I will say, 1075 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:04,440 Speaker 1: like Southern Miss bogs, if you flash back about a 1076 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 1: month and a half ago, they were really supposed to 1077 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 1: be the favorite coming out of the other side of 1078 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:11,840 Speaker 1: the Sun Belt to go face jam you in that 1079 00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:14,640 Speaker 1: championship game. They crumbled down the stretch I just think 1080 00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,200 Speaker 1: all the gases out of the tank, specifically now with 1081 00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 1: Huff leaving, like I can't believe with how they really 1082 00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:22,239 Speaker 1: perform down the stretch that he got that job in 1083 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,960 Speaker 1: the first place. Like Charles Huff must be a great interviewer. 1084 00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,719 Speaker 1: He might. He must know that all his weaknesses are 1085 00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,240 Speaker 1: also his strengths. When they all asked that backwards. 1086 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:35,920 Speaker 2: Clea, he is, yes, you just just want to get 1087 00:52:35,960 --> 00:52:37,719 Speaker 2: their hands on Saban disciples. 1088 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: I get it. And like, I don't think Tisdale is 1089 00:52:41,120 --> 00:52:43,800 Speaker 1: as good of a quarterback as Maverick mcgiver. Definitely doesn't 1090 00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:47,000 Speaker 1: have as good of a name as mcgiver did, but 1091 00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 1: he's at least I mean, dude, like he's been a 1092 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 1: big right. 1093 00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:51,719 Speaker 2: He still sounds like a great Nascar name. 1094 00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 1: Man, it ain't bad, it ain't bad, it ain't bad. 1095 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:56,279 Speaker 1: It an't bad. Or like an actor. I see like 1096 00:52:56,360 --> 00:52:58,839 Speaker 1: kind of an actor out of that too. But like dude, 1097 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:01,120 Speaker 1: he's been to death Valley at night, man, I think 1098 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,520 Speaker 1: he's played in some big games here, So I'm ready 1099 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:06,400 Speaker 1: to fire up Rodney here. Let's go. Let's go wku baby, 1100 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,640 Speaker 1: go tops tops all right, and let's go ahead and 1101 00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 1: round it out with another bowl game that you know, 1102 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,920 Speaker 1: we always get these strange matchups, these weird occurrences. We 1103 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:20,400 Speaker 1: talked about it all night long. I don't think it 1104 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:23,359 Speaker 1: gets any stranger than the Frisco Bowl kicking off at 1105 00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 1: nine pm Eastern Time from the Ford Center at the 1106 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 1: Star Aka Bugs the Dallas Cowboys practice facility. This is 1107 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 1: where this game's taking place. There where renovations due to 1108 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 1: the usual stadium this is taking place at. So we're 1109 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 1: going to the Cowboys practice facility. The ten and three 1110 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: un l V ReBs. They are now six and a 1111 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,919 Speaker 1: half point favorites over the eight and five or Aan 1112 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 1: fors us me Ohio Bobcats. This line has opened at 1113 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,719 Speaker 1: four and a half. It has swung two points and 1114 00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 1: even swung a point today win head coach Brian Smith, 1115 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,279 Speaker 1: who was on leave after his first year at the program. 1116 00:53:59,520 --> 00:54:03,480 Speaker 1: He is now been fired for quote serious misconduct. 1117 00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:05,839 Speaker 2: We still have no idea what that is. By the way, 1118 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:08,400 Speaker 2: and by the way, what is with us recording the 1119 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 2: day a guy gets fired. In a weird situation that 1120 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:14,399 Speaker 2: happened to us with Sharon Moore in Michigan last week, 1121 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:17,160 Speaker 2: we had no idea about the details. We were like 1122 00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:19,560 Speaker 2: at the tail end and then Charon Moore got fired. 1123 00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:22,560 Speaker 2: So yeah, very weird occurrences here for sure. 1124 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:25,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say is I think hopefully Brian Smith handles 1125 00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:29,200 Speaker 1: it a little better than Sharon did, just because you know, 1126 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:32,440 Speaker 1: you losing while a love of Ohio, I think losing 1127 00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:35,200 Speaker 1: that gig is not as you know, detrimental to your 1128 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:38,359 Speaker 1: life as maybe losing the Michigan job. Not as hope, 1129 00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 1: profile and scrutinized. 1130 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,040 Speaker 2: For sure, nothing nearly as bad. 1131 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:46,120 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, absolutely, and you know, just you know, we're 1132 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,319 Speaker 1: not really going to touch on that, but just like 1133 00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:51,640 Speaker 1: I hope everyone's doing okay, like his family and a 1134 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 1: right yeah. So yeah, so that's a tragedy, bad situation. 1135 00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,560 Speaker 1: And with Brian Smith out bogs like this, couldn't mean 1136 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:01,399 Speaker 1: we see more opt outs for Ohio over the next week. 1137 00:55:01,440 --> 00:55:04,279 Speaker 1: We have no idea right now as this windows about 1138 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,680 Speaker 1: to open them for them. They ran the ball though 1139 00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:08,799 Speaker 1: at a top ten clip on the backs of their 1140 00:55:08,840 --> 00:55:13,040 Speaker 1: quarterback Parker Navarro and their running back cy Bruinkua. He 1141 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:16,200 Speaker 1: led the Mac in rushing yards and in touchdowns. Was 1142 00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:19,000 Speaker 1: quite the upgrade over what they had last year in 1143 00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:21,759 Speaker 1: the backfield there and un l V. They delivered a 1144 00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:24,920 Speaker 1: ten and three record in Dan Mullen's first season returning 1145 00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:28,520 Speaker 1: as a head coach in college football. Their quarterback, Anthony Calandria. 1146 00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 1: This guy was sensational this year. He led the conference 1147 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: in nearly every single metric from a passing standpoint. Also 1148 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,719 Speaker 1: a really good rusher, he was named the Mountain West 1149 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 1: Offensive Player of the Year. They have no opt outs. 1150 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,960 Speaker 1: The only injury is to their tight end var Kis Gums, 1151 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 1: who also missed the Mountain West championship game a week ago. Bugs. 1152 00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:51,960 Speaker 1: I hate to do it. You know, I love Ohio. 1153 00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 1: You know I love the people. You know I love 1154 00:55:55,239 --> 00:55:57,640 Speaker 1: the school. You know I love the bars downtown there. 1155 00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:00,839 Speaker 1: I gotta do it, though, BVP projections with me as well. 1156 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 1: Send this line closer seven a half. Give me after 1157 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:06,600 Speaker 1: weeks and weeks there my first, one of my first 1158 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:08,799 Speaker 1: bets of the season. Un l V reps they did 1159 00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 1: not cover. I'm getting back in today. Let's go U 1160 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:12,440 Speaker 1: and LV. 1161 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:15,960 Speaker 2: Come on to open the show by saying I can't 1162 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:19,160 Speaker 2: go back on these teams that I bet. I promised 1163 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,120 Speaker 2: I wouldn't bet on. Who was it earlier in the show. 1164 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:26,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's Carson back. You and LV, but they definitely 1165 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:27,800 Speaker 1: scared me for a while. 1166 00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:31,239 Speaker 2: But this is this is I'm with you on this one, 1167 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:34,759 Speaker 2: by the way, it's un LV, and it's not particularly close, right, 1168 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 2: It's too many weird swirling things within this Brian Smith. Uh, 1169 00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,279 Speaker 2: you know, up until today we did we didn't even 1170 00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:43,920 Speaker 2: have an explanation of why he's put on leave. We 1171 00:56:43,920 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 2: still don't know why he's been fired, but we know 1172 00:56:46,040 --> 00:56:48,880 Speaker 2: he has been fired at least, there's no ambiguity there. 1173 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 2: But even beyond that, right, I do think that this 1174 00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 2: is a game that potentially Ohio could have competed in. 1175 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:58,960 Speaker 2: They do have very good rush offense. UNLV's rush defense 1176 00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:02,879 Speaker 2: has been awful all year long. But I just think 1177 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 2: we have a much better graded team here forty nine 1178 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:09,000 Speaker 2: to seventy nine in univ's favor. We have a much 1179 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,960 Speaker 2: higher roster strength team in UNOV over Ohio, and fifty 1180 00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:16,280 Speaker 2: five to eighty one is the number there. You know, 1181 00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 2: v has been awful against the run, but they've been 1182 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,280 Speaker 2: able to run everyone without a decent defense off the 1183 00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:26,000 Speaker 2: field this year. That's just what they have done. So 1184 00:57:27,000 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 2: Ohio should be able to run. But I don't think 1185 00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 2: they're going to be able to slow down Clandria like 1186 00:57:31,200 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 2: Boise State and the Weather did in their last game. 1187 00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:37,360 Speaker 2: So hard to say because it is a weird spot 1188 00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:39,600 Speaker 2: for Ohio, but give me the ReBs. I'm laying this 1189 00:57:39,640 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 2: four and a half. Is it still four and a 1190 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 2: half or as it ticked up again to five and 1191 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:44,240 Speaker 2: a half six and a. 1192 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:46,680 Speaker 1: Half, I'd say it's six and a half everywhere now. 1193 00:57:46,880 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I took them at I'm gonna take it 1194 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:52,360 Speaker 2: at anything below nine and a half, nine and a 1195 00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 2: half in below, I'm fine taking U and OV. I 1196 00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:57,280 Speaker 2: don't know what's going on with Ohio. I think we 1197 00:57:57,320 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 2: are going to get more opt outs and this is 1198 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,600 Speaker 2: just an ugly sitch situation for them. So yeah, give 1199 00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:03,240 Speaker 2: me you and OLV. I'll lay those points. 1200 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 1: Parker Navarro. If this is our last game together, brother, 1201 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,760 Speaker 1: I appreciate everything you've done for me and rat a 1202 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 1: lot of joy to a lot of Action fans over 1203 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:13,840 Speaker 1: the previous years. But it is time to fade you. 1204 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:16,360 Speaker 1: It is time to fade you, and it's also time 1205 00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,240 Speaker 1: Bogs for our best bets of the week. Where are 1206 00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:20,600 Speaker 1: you heading this seek, my friend. 1207 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:24,560 Speaker 2: Man, I am going to I'm going to go back 1208 00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 2: to the under in Washington State in Utah State. I 1209 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:31,640 Speaker 2: just this defense for Washington State. Yes, there are some 1210 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 2: questions here, but I just think they're going to be 1211 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:38,120 Speaker 2: able to slow down Utah State. I think this one 1212 00:58:38,200 --> 00:58:40,720 Speaker 2: is going to be ugly Haymaker type of a game 1213 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,080 Speaker 2: where maybe you see some big plays but not a 1214 00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:47,080 Speaker 2: lot of long sustained scoring drives. I think there's gonna 1215 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:49,080 Speaker 2: be some field goal kicking as well. So give me 1216 00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:52,000 Speaker 2: the under in Washington State in Utah State. 1217 00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: I actually really like how this card is setting up 1218 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 1: for me. Bogs, I love you and LV I like 1219 00:58:57,320 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 1: WK you A lot ole miss is going to be 1220 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 1: fun on that a total. My biggest bet and my 1221 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:03,840 Speaker 1: best bet of the weekend, though, it is that teaser 1222 00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 1: play Alabama versus Oklahoma under forty eight and a half points. 1223 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,880 Speaker 1: I just think their defenses are both very very good, 1224 00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:14,920 Speaker 1: the offenses both over over underwhelming. I think we see 1225 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,720 Speaker 1: some crowd noise involved in this one, maybe a little 1226 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:19,800 Speaker 1: sloppy play out of the gates for two teams coming 1227 00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:21,760 Speaker 1: off a little bit of a rest here, and then 1228 00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:24,440 Speaker 1: that second half that teaser JAMU plus twenty eight and 1229 00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:26,960 Speaker 1: a half versus Oregon. I think the running in this 1230 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 1: game just does not allow Oregon to get over four touchdowns. 1231 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 1: Jam you, I think we'll have a little bit of pap, 1232 00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:35,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of grit, and a little bit of 1233 00:59:35,240 --> 00:59:37,560 Speaker 1: showing just hey, we belong to be here. We are 1234 00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:39,720 Speaker 1: the best G five team in the country, and hey, 1235 00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:41,960 Speaker 1: maybe we even make things a little comfortable for Dan 1236 00:59:42,040 --> 00:59:45,919 Speaker 1: Lanning and company by halftime.
