How about 5 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 2: Cowboys Seahawks last night? Holy cow fun game? Seahawks got 6 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,280 Speaker 2: the cover and listen. I'm not one to brag, but 7 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 2: when you're running hot, you're running hot. College Hoops picks 8 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,599 Speaker 2: only on IG only on IG stories two and oh, 9 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 2: that's eight and one this week feeling it and the 10 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 2: Bears hit on Monday Night money Line and it's just 11 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 2: been a great week all around. Gotta get excited. And 12 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 2: we close out the week with a great guest on 13 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: today's pod. You remember him from our college football preview, 14 00:00:54,400 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 2: Brad Powers, college football Gambler. Just excellent insight on the 15 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,400 Speaker 2: weekend that will be championship weekend in college football. It's 16 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:09,679 Speaker 2: surprisingly massive because there's four unbeaten teams heading into the weekend. 17 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 2: There's an FSU team that does not belong Brad and 18 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 2: I I think you'll enjoy that discussion. There's the case 19 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,919 Speaker 2: of you know, is Alabama which is taking sharp money? 20 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,720 Speaker 2: Is Alabama live to topple Georgia and then what do 21 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 2: you do? Does Georgia get in the playoff? What about Texas? 22 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 2: Texas beat Alabama? How could you leave Texas out? Like 23 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 2: the college football playoff, Saturday is going to be crazy. 24 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:36,039 Speaker 2: And of course my daughter has her first volleyball tournament. 25 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 2: You know, we live out in southern California now, so 26 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 2: we're a volleyball family. You know, I tried to make 27 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 2: us a basketball family, but you can only force things 28 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 2: so much. You know, they like it, whils they're both 29 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: playing this year. I'm coaching, of course, but you know, 30 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 2: volleyball is fun as well, and it's indoor volleyball, not beach. 31 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,919 Speaker 2: But so it's a chaotic weekend. We got the soccer 32 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: playoffs out here. There's just so much happening. But I 33 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: got to start the pod. We'll do best. That's obviously 34 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: at the end for NFL. And I talk about the 35 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 2: bets in college football with Brad that I've made the 36 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: big one. I am not big, but the one I'm 37 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 2: rooting for the most, well, well besides Michigan because I 38 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 2: have futures on them, is of course Louisville to beat FSU. 39 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 2: Stick it to the Seminoles fans. Let's start with Cowboy Seahawks. 40 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 2: So Dallas doesn't punt. Dallas leads seventeen to seven. Somehow 41 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 2: they need two fourth down stops in the final like 42 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 2: seven minutes to survive Seattle forty one to thirty five. 43 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 2: A bad Seattle team, folks, They are not good. Now, No, Now, 44 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 2: six and six, Dallas finally has a win over a 45 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 2: team that had a winning record coming into the game. 46 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,520 Speaker 2: That's their first of the season. And how did they 47 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 2: do it? 48 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: Well? 49 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: Seattle didn't punt. Seattle wrung up four hundred yards, went 50 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 2: nine for fourteen on third down, twenty five first downs, 51 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 2: six point three yards per play. Gino Smith, who you know, 52 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,519 Speaker 2: he did have an interception wasn't great, But otherwise, do 53 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: you know Smith had a pretty solid game, you know, 54 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 2: three hundred and thirty four yards passing, but when it 55 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 2: mattered most the two fourth down possessions late in the game, 56 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: they came up empty on both. Now, it wasn't helpful 57 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 2: that Kevin Lockett had a brutal drop wide open. Sorry 58 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 2: Tyler Lockett, Tyler, what I say, Kevin Lockett? I think 59 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 2: that's his older brother, Tyler Lockett with a bad bad 60 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: drop Smith, The Jigba had a great game. DK Metcalf 61 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 2: went kind of bonkers seventy three yarder in the first 62 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: quarter beatn Bland. But I think the big takeaways are one, 63 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 2: Seattle's just not a serious team. Like they're not a 64 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 2: legit contender in any way, shape or form. Whatever you 65 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 2: felt about them early in the season. I think at 66 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 2: one point they were like three and one. They had 67 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: that nice win over the Giants where they looked utterly dominant. 68 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 2: They're just not a serious football team. Like we could 69 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 2: get excited about the offensive line, the two tackles they 70 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: drafted last year. I mean, Lucas could not do anything 71 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 2: even slow down Michael Parsons. Michael Parson's just dominating that 72 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 2: game without a sack. But when it mattered most fourth 73 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 2: quarter what Michael Parsons just eviscerating Lucas off the edge. 74 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: And on the fourth down play to end the game, 75 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 2: Lucas clearly got the wrong assignment because he basically ran 76 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 2: away from Michael Parsons who came unmolested to the quarterback 77 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,679 Speaker 2: and you know, had to throw it into the ground 78 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 2: on fourth down, which is such a geno Smith play. 79 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 2: But I think the big takeaway. Seattle is not a 80 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 2: like a legit contender. I don't know that they'll make 81 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 2: the playoffs at this point. Frankly, they have San Francisco 82 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 2: up next. Now San Fran' is gonna be coming off 83 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: the Philly game. There could be a little come down, 84 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 2: but it's in San Francisco, okay, But it gets worse 85 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 2: after San fran Seattle plays Philadelphia. Now, Philly's gonna beat 86 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 2: the tail end of a brutal stretch, so there's a 87 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: chance they get they catch him napping. And then there's 88 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 2: Tennessee Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh's in the mix for a playoff spot, 89 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 2: and then Arizona. So let's say they win too. We'll 90 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: give them the Tennessee win on the road. All the 91 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: Tennessee's unbeaten at home, and I like them this weekend, 92 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,479 Speaker 2: and I did like India earlier in the week, but 93 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 2: the injury to Taylor and some of the Tennessee numbers 94 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,479 Speaker 2: have kind of sent me toward Tennessee. But let's just 95 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: give Seattle wins over Tennessee in Arizona, which is not 96 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 2: a gimme. That gets them to eight and nine losses 97 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: to Pittsburgh, Philly and Sanfrey. I don't think eight nine's 98 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 2: getting them to the playoffs, folks. The problem is green 99 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: Bay is surging. And I'm not a believer, but a 100 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 2: lot of people seem to think green Bay could win 101 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: this game outright against Casey and could make a run 102 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 2: to the playoffs if just Jordan love hotness continues. Currently, 103 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 2: Seattle is sitting on the sixth seventh seed, tied with Minnesota, 104 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 2: and it's weird because there's a clear top three. I 105 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 2: don't think Detroit's in the top three in the NFC, 106 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 2: although their record of eight and three puts them there. 107 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,720 Speaker 2: But like Atlanta stinks, Viking stink, Seattle stinks. Packers are surging. 108 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 2: Rams who swept Seattle their surging, and you can't rule 109 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,760 Speaker 2: out the Saints, although this weekend I think probably the 110 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 2: end of the road if they lose to Detroit, falling 111 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 2: to five and seven and Atlanta beats the Jets. I mean, 112 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,160 Speaker 2: if the Jets beat Atlanta, which is in play, the 113 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,480 Speaker 2: Saints are still alive. But I just I cannot take 114 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 2: Seattle seriously anymore. And I think in this offseason they're 115 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 2: gonna have some major questions to ask beyond quarterback. Like 116 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 2: I mean, the offensive line literally felt like it was 117 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 2: caving in on every play. How much longer can you 118 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 2: just throw it up to Metcalf and JSN and Locket 119 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: and just hope for greatness. So I saw a poor 120 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 2: performance from Seattle. I think, to a little bit of 121 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 2: a lesser extent, I think Dallas got somewhat exposed. Again, 122 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 2: this is a middling Seattle Seahawks seam Okay, they are 123 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,039 Speaker 2: twenty second in DVOA defense. It looks like eighteenth in offense. 124 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: They're just not good. And they went up and down 125 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: the field and you couldn't force them to punt once. 126 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 2: So you could look at this two ways for Dallas. A. 127 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: Dallas passed the test, they got the win. They were 128 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: looking ahead to filling in next week, as I predicted, 129 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 2: and that's why I had Seattle on the points. But 130 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,119 Speaker 2: if that's the case, hey Seattle, we're just looking ahead 131 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 2: to Dallas. Sorry, Dallas, we're just looking ahead to Philly. 132 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 2: We don't really care. And the defense wasn't locked in. 133 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 2: Blam got torched by Metcalf. I mean it feels like 134 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 2: he goes for interceptions a lot. But also the footwork 135 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 2: by Metcalf was extraordinary. But anyway, let's just say Dallas 136 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 2: was overlooking Seattle. They have Philly, Buffalo Miami. Next they 137 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 2: get Philly at home, and then they go to Buffalo 138 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 2: December seventeenth, so it's gonna be cold as hell outdoors, 139 00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: probably looking at it like twenty five degrees snow. And 140 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: then Christmas Eve you go to Miami for a date 141 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 2: with the Dolphins. Followed up with a game against Detroit 142 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 2: in Dallas. Should be a shootout. I think that's a 143 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 2: good I don't know that Dallas is definitely winning that game. 144 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 2: The Detroit defense stinks, so Dallas will score a lot. 145 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 2: But we just saw Dallas got lit up. We just 146 00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: saw them get lit up by Gino Smith. Do you 147 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 2: trust this Dallas defense? Like, what's Brock Purty gonna do 148 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 2: these guys in the next in the next round. Purty 149 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:08,600 Speaker 2: already smashed them once. So I don't. I know. People 150 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 2: like Dallas and it was an exciting game. And now 151 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 2: Dallas is like averaging forty points at home. Yeah against Seattle. Washington, Uh, 152 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 2: Tommy DeVito and the Giants Matt Stafford for a half 153 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 2: and then who filled in Brett Rippon in the second half? 154 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 2: New England and Matt Jones, who handed them two touchdowns 155 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 2: Zach Wilson. Like again, I don't think you can take 156 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,559 Speaker 2: away anything great from this other than the fact that, yes, 157 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 2: Dak once again looked pretty darn good. There were some 158 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 2: questions in the red zone settling for some field goals, 159 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,719 Speaker 2: but overall, like, yeah, I this is a solid win 160 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: for Dallas, got the job done, did not come close 161 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: to covering the spread, and now we're on to Philadelphia 162 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 2: and they can lock in and maybe maybe get revenge 163 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 2: on the Eagles. But I'm not a total believer in 164 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,440 Speaker 2: Dallas yet. I still think it's a Philly san Fran 165 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: and I've seen the title game. Would not shock me 166 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 2: if Dallas won the rematch against Philly. And we'll get 167 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 2: the best bets here after the Brad Powers interview, But 168 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think San Fran's gonna put it 169 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: on Philly here. I don't think it's gonna be particularly close. 170 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 2: And Philly then rebounds against Dallas and maybe gets the sweep, 171 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 2: and that would be devastating for Dak and McCarthy, and 172 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: that's when all the seeds of doubt will be planted. 173 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: Can they win the big game? Are they gonna win 174 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 2: in the playoff? Is this just another year beat up 175 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 2: on tomato cans and when it matters most they don't 176 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 2: come through.

He's not gonna He's 202 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 2: not the type to do a victory lab Brad Powers 203 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 2: just the machine when it comes to gambling. We had 204 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 2: him on for the college football preview back in I 205 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 2: think late August, and now we have him back for 206 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 2: a monster championship weekend. Brad, how are you? Man? 207 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 3: Hey doing well? I gotta say, though, I'm very candid 208 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 3: not number one this year? 209 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 2: Jason, Wow, Well, I like the honesty. Listen, It's been 210 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,160 Speaker 2: a kind of a wacky year. I think this is 211 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 2: the first time we've got four undefeated teams heading into 212 00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 2: championship weekend. Is that accurate? 213 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 3: Yeah? And so so. I don't know one hundred percent sure, 214 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 3: but I think that is the case. 215 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,720 Speaker 2: It's just a weird setup. We'll dig into some transfer 216 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 2: portal stuff in a minute, but let's start with the 217 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 2: Friday game. So, we're recording this on Thursday, and Brad, 218 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 2: I'll be honest, I watched the Oregon Washington the first game, 219 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 2: the first meeting, and it was pretty clear Oregon was 220 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: a better side. I just saw this at bet Chris, 221 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 2: Oregon minus ten. That's a little surprising to me. I 222 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 2: know it will be like seven and a half. But 223 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: when you see minus ten, I know some of the 224 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 2: you know, the number takers will just be like, give 225 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 2: me the ten. I'm taking Washington, But I don't know 226 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: you're out there. Why can every play every game Oregon ten? 227 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 2: Is it just feels steep? 228 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 3: No, it does, but honestly, not enough for me to 229 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 3: bet Washington to be be perfectly frank with you, I'm 230 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,079 Speaker 3: not stunned by it. I mean I will say this, 231 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 3: this is no way it would have been ten five 232 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 3: to ten years ago in the marketplace. The market wasn't 233 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 3: smart enough to make a number this big. But I mean, 234 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 3: let's look at the two teams since that game, and 235 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 3: you're right, Oregon was the better team in that game, 236 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 3: even than Washington won by three. I think he got 237 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 3: a downgrade Washington significantly, even though they've won six straight games. 238 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,199 Speaker 3: But this is a team that offensively, particularly their quarterback 239 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,800 Speaker 3: who was the strength of the team the first six games, 240 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 3: Michael Pennix for whatever reason. I don't know if he's sick. 241 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 3: I don't know if he's injured, but you look at 242 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 3: his stats. He's gone from completing more than seventy percent 243 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 3: of his passes with a twenty to three ratio and 244 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 3: nearly four hundred yards per game in the first six 245 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 3: games last six games less than sixty percent completion percentage, 246 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 3: twelve touchdowns, five in or and like two hundred and 247 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 3: fifty yards a game. So dramatically different offense that Oregon's 248 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 3: gonna be facing. I've never been a fan of the 249 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 3: Washington defense, and Oregon's is sending. I mean, if someone 250 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,360 Speaker 3: told me they have an Oregon number one in their 251 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 3: power rings right now, I wouldn't laugh at it, because 252 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 3: they're number one in yards for play margin, number one 253 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 3: in yards for game margin, number one in points for 254 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 3: game margin, and they played pretty much as similar as 255 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 3: strength to schedule as Georgia Michigan has. 256 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 2: Huh So, I want so since that game, Washington's gone downhill? 257 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 2: Do you think, and I don't know their coach well 258 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: enough that they have been like all right, we got it. 259 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 2: We're headed to the conference championship. Let's not screw this up. 260 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 2: And then Pennix, you factor in some of the NFL 261 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 2: stuff he's maybe thinking about. I'm sure agents are beating 262 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 2: down his door. Hey man, Heisman, guy, we got you 263 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: in the first round. Come come sign with us. I'm 264 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,839 Speaker 2: sure there's external stuff, but at that, at this point, 265 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 2: does it go out the window. Hey, this is our season, 266 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 2: and maybe there's no more like, Hey, let's just coast 267 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 2: and get to the conference championship. Now we're here a 268 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 2: neutral field. It ten just seems massive. I know the 269 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: trend lines are looking great for Oregon, but Oregon kind 270 00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 2: of had to do that off the loss, right. 271 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it wasn't just like a one or two 272 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 3: games all their little flat. Maybe you understand the Arizona 273 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 3: State game, the game immediately after Oregon that they were flat. 274 00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 3: They could have lost that game. Then they almost lost 275 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 3: to Stamford, almost lost to five and seven Washington State 276 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 3: team last week, the USC game doesn't age very well 277 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 3: like considering what USC did down in the stretch, I 278 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 3: don't know. I mean, I can chog a one bad performance, 279 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 3: but five or six subpar I mean they have the 280 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 3: field to me, Jason, like TCU last year, where TCU 281 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 3: won like ten games by ten points or less, Washington's 282 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 3: won eight straight games by ten points or less. I 283 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 3: don't they just screamed fraud to me, even though I 284 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 3: like their coach, even though I like their quarterback. I 285 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 3: just man keep it. Also keeping mind Oregon might need 286 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 3: style points. They have no idea what's gonna happen on Saturday. 287 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 3: This game's on Friday. So I think if let's get 288 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 3: bnext to Heisman, let's get style points. I think if 289 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 3: there's an opportunity for them to get margin late in 290 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 3: the game, say they're only up seven, they're gonna punch 291 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 3: in a light TD to win by ten, to win 292 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 3: by fourteen, to win by seventeen. 293 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 2: So I hadn't thought of that. Now. Last year in 294 00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 2: the PAC twelfth title game, it was if memory serves 295 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 2: USC Utah. Utah won the regular season matchup. Do you 296 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 2: remember who was favored in that one or no? 297 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: Uh? 298 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 3: USC was, but it was slight. 299 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, Utah kicked their ass right, just push them all 300 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: up and down the field. I think they won by 301 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 2: like what twenty or something? 302 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it was USC early in the game, 303 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 3: Caleb Williams gets hurt and just they completely flipped at 304 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 3: the end of the second quarter, and then Utah just 305 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 3: kicked their ass in the second half. 306 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 2: I just hearing your play for Oregon. I wonder do 307 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 2: I look at an old line Oregon minus seventeen like 308 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean, maybe this is a bloodbath 309 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 2: and a real beatdown in Washington gets exposed. 310 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 3: Who will tell you what you can do? All lines great? 311 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 3: I would say this if you don't want to lay 312 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 3: like minus three fifty minus four hundred money line Oregon, 313 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 3: if you don't want to lay the New York ten 314 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 3: points spread, if you think Oregon's going to perform well, 315 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 3: I'll give you the market to bet. You bet bow 316 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 3: Knicks to win the Heisman at minus went seventy ish 317 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 3: because obviously, if Oregon performs well, bow Knicks is likely 318 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 3: to perform well, and if those two go hand in hand, 319 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 3: he's gonna win the Heisman. 320 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 2: Then Yeah, Michigan doesn't have anybody. Georgia doesn't have anybody. 321 00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 3: It's just him and Jay and Daniels. That's it. 322 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 2: Daniels is in the clubhouse right, He's done. 323 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 3: It has no yep, from LSU has no other data points, 324 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 3: so it's all about bo Nix's performance on Friday night. 325 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,840 Speaker 2: All right, Well, yeah, I think he talked me into Oregon. Damn. 326 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 2: I was looking for a case for Washington. All right, 327 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:34,160 Speaker 2: let's get to we could breeze through this one. Texas 328 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 2: favored by fifteen. It was I think fourteen or thirteen 329 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 2: and a half, and it's just going up because they also, 330 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 2: like you said, they will need to win by margin 331 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: to impress the dumbass committee. I'll get to them later 332 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 2: at FSU. I don't know. Oklahoma State and Gundy. They're 333 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: pretty good as dogs I was reading, but I don't know. 334 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 2: I just don't think they're good this year. For me, 335 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 2: this is Texas or nothing. But I don't know what 336 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 2: do you think? 337 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 3: Yep, Texas are nothing for me. I'm part of the 338 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 3: Texas money. I mean, Number one, he just gotta starts 339 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 3: with powerring. My power rating has it right around fifteen, 340 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 3: so I'm not surprised in that regard. Second, I mean, 341 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 3: Oklahoma State's kind of fraudulent. I know they've had some 342 00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 3: big time performances, but man, it's tough getting set the 343 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 3: South Alabama performance out of your head the UC blowout loss. Hell, 344 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 3: look at what they've done the last two weeks. They're 345 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 3: getting down double ditchit to you know, the wellbelow average 346 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 3: teams in Houston and BYU Texas to me takes you know, 347 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 3: what is Oklahoma State do best? They running football with 348 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 3: Ali Gordon their running back. Well, what does Texas do best? 349 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 3: Stop to run? They're one of the best rush defense 350 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 3: in the country. So if you take that away or 351 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 3: at least slow that down for Oklahoma State, I don't 352 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 3: trust Alan Bowman to keep pace with the Texas offense. 353 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 2: Texas for me, yeah, Michigan, Iowa. I'm sure some people 354 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 2: will try to say, oh, that's way too many twenty 355 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 2: two and a half, come on and let down off 356 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 2: Ohio State. I don't know, man, Michigan's just gonna choke 357 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 2: these guys out. Is Hardbo back for this one? 358 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's back for this one. So they might get 359 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 3: a little bumped there. They are banged up a little 360 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 3: bit now, you know, Zinner's out, obviously out for the year. 361 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 3: Cornerback mine out play. Michigan doesn't need style points unlike 362 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 3: Texas and Oregon. They went there in so that concerns me. 363 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,959 Speaker 3: But I mean, also, it concerns me if you look 364 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 3: at historically, doesn't happen very often. Let's take look at 365 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,959 Speaker 3: the total to side the total, it's only happened thirteen 366 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 3: times since nineteen eighty where a team's favored by more 367 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 3: than three touchdowns and the total is thirty seven or less, 368 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 3: the favorite is two and eleven, So historically not great. 369 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 3: That being said, this Iowa team's bad. They've only played 370 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 3: one team in Michigan's wheelhouse as far as a power 371 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 3: rating as Penn State. They lost thirty one nothing. So 372 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 3: I didn't get to the window on. 373 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 2: Iowa even just bite the two and eleven trend. By 374 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,879 Speaker 2: the way, you mentioned a trend like that, and I 375 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 2: don't know, that's a tiny sample size, but nineteen eighty 376 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 2: that's going back like forty years or something almost fifty. 377 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 2: What do you do with trends because they're not predictive. 378 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 2: Surely this stuff is baked in. Like I've had people 379 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,199 Speaker 2: come on and we go back and forth about like 380 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: even mentioning trends. Some people are like, man, I don't 381 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 2: even listen to X podcasts because they put so many 382 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 2: dumb trends out there. I don't know, Brad, what do 383 00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 2: you do with trends? Like, how do you factor them 384 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 2: into your pie? 385 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's a good question. I mean they're not 386 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 3: pretty much a non factor. I just like I looking 387 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 3: for historic outliers, and so that's when I look for trends. Now, 388 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 3: college football is totally different than what it continues to change. 389 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,199 Speaker 3: I mean I'll look at you know, Saman's been in 390 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 3: Alabama fifteen years. What's how does he do as an underdog? 391 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 3: It never happens. I mean I like to look at 392 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 3: sort of stuff like that. If a coach has another 393 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 3: coach's number and they've been at the same school for 394 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,959 Speaker 3: the last seven, eight, ten years, then I'll look at 395 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 3: a little bit. But you know, from the most part, 396 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 3: I mean maybe out of the fifty games a week, 397 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 3: I'm you know, contemplate one or two trends they even consider. 398 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 3: That's it. 399 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 2: You said, Saban is a dog. So let's go to 400 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 2: Georgia Alabama. It looks like this was five and a 401 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,679 Speaker 2: half down to four and a half. I don't know 402 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 2: what people are seeing here. This is I already bet Georgia. 403 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 2: I guess I got a bad number. But why is 404 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:55,400 Speaker 2: why is Alabama getting bet here. 405 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 3: You know, I'm not sure. Maybe it's a saving dog angle. 406 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 3: I mean I like four early in the week with Georgia. 407 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,479 Speaker 3: Now I will say this, you play numbers, not teams. 408 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 3: I mean I would have played Alabama at seven. I 409 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,159 Speaker 3: got to it's kind of in a dead spot. So 410 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:11,679 Speaker 3: you know, it doesn't take too much to move it 411 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 3: right around five. I mean, just one group can move 412 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 3: even a game like this. You know, a half point 413 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 3: point it seems significant, but it really isn't between you know, 414 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,080 Speaker 3: four and a half up to five and a half. 415 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 3: Just isn't that big of a move. So what side 416 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,399 Speaker 3: do I think? The right side here? I actually like 417 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 3: the over believe it or not. I like the trend 418 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,719 Speaker 3: line of Alabama's offense obviously, last four weeks has been 419 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 3: their best four week sample size. Georgia's defense, if you 420 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 3: look at them, susceptible to the run the last four weeks, 421 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 3: they're a low one hundred and sixty six rushing yards 422 00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 3: per game. That's how a lot for a Georgia team 423 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 3: that's been giving up on an average per season last 424 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 3: week four years like seventy five eighty rushing yards per game. 425 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,119 Speaker 3: So I'm worried about that. On the positive side for Georgia, 426 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 3: I think it's the best Georgia offense in this run 427 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 3: that they've had. It's better than the last couple of years. 428 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,239 Speaker 3: They got more weapons, they're healthier than what they've been 429 00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 3: all season brock Bauers and now finally health and they've 430 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 3: the injuries have helped their offense because they've discovered they've 431 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 3: had to discover other weapons with their top guys out, 432 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 3: so now they're more versatile. And I think Alabama's defense 433 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,919 Speaker 3: is not one of the best saving defenses. So I 434 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 3: like the over And you know, if you're worried, Oh, 435 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 3: SEC Defense Championship SEC Championships game last twelve years, gone 436 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 3: over ten times. 437 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 2: Wow, Now I know that Milroe is starting. All everybody's 438 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 2: own excited about Milroll because of one freaking throw against Auburn. 439 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 2: I'm sure he's done some other things since that disaster 440 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 2: against Texas. But how has Georgia done against running quarterbacks. 441 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 2: I'm looking on their schedule, does it look like they've 442 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,920 Speaker 2: faced any really elite ones. They didn't face the kid 443 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 2: Jefferson from Arkansas. Will this be like a bit of 444 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 2: a shock to the system. 445 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, that'll be a little bit of a shock, and 446 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 3: you kind of heard Kirby tip his hand that he's, 447 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 3: you know, a little bit worried. You know, Milroe is 448 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 3: like a bigger Lamar Jackson. Oh, I think he's more 449 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 3: of like a faster Cam Newton is how I look 450 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,679 Speaker 3: at him. More like, So they faced a little bit 451 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 3: of a mobile quarterback last week and Haines King of 452 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 3: Georgia Tech, and uh, they struggle a little bit with it. 453 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 3: And obviously you're bigger, stronger, faster players across the board 454 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 3: on Alabama's offense. So I'm a little bit worried. And 455 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,520 Speaker 3: keep in mind, you know, Georgia's did one of their 456 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 3: best defenders been out the last couple games? Will be interesting. 457 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 3: The guy the leader in the in the middle of 458 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 3: the field, the middle linebackers went out, so not having 459 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,439 Speaker 3: the quarterback of the defense still hurt him. 460 00:22:21,760 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 2: So do you like Milroe a lot? I mean again, 461 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,879 Speaker 2: I kind of checked out on Alabama after the loss 462 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 2: to Texas when he I mean he was future. He 463 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 2: got bench like the next two weeks, right, yeah, it did. So, 464 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 2: Like what's changed with him? I mean, has he just 465 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 2: faced crappy opponents? Like has good defense, like Georgia. 466 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 3: No, I mean that they faced some you know, deep 467 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 3: I mean SCC West way stronger than the SEC East. 468 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 3: I mean it's not like there's a bunch of National 469 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 3: championship type teams. But I mean as far as talented teams, 470 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 3: he's faced quite quite a few. Uh. What's changed, Well, 471 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 3: I mean he had a first year coordinator and Tommy Racing, 472 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 3: a young guy, a lot of new faces across the board, 473 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 3: a lot of young offensive line that's kind of developed. 474 00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,920 Speaker 3: I think the offensive line improvement has probably been the 475 00:23:02,920 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 3: biggest reason why he's gotten protection. So any young quarterback, 476 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 3: if you're not protecting him, he's gonna panic. Do I 477 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 3: love him, No, But I'll tell you one thing that 478 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 3: he does really well. I mean, and I'm not overreacting 479 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 3: to the one pass against Auburn. All season long, he's 480 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 3: thrown the deep ball any as well as any quarterback 481 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:21,200 Speaker 3: in the country. 482 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 2: And Georgia, how do they defend the deep ball? 483 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 3: They I don't think they have the stud cornerbacks like 484 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 3: they had a couple of years ago, and they certainly 485 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 3: don't have the studs up front to get pressure. I 486 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 3: think they'll struggle. I think there'll be a couple of 487 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:37,360 Speaker 3: shots to be had here. 488 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 2: Is there some Alabama money line to be taken or no? 489 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 3: No, I don't think so. I think when it's all 490 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 3: said done, Georgia is the better team. I think I'm 491 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 3: gonna go with my gut, my gut said when I 492 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 3: saw that four early in the week, I'm gonna stick 493 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 3: with that bet that I made and later. 494 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 2: All right, So now the game that probably the general 495 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 2: public doesn't care much about, but for some reason, I've 496 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 2: dug in heels on this FSU crap. So they lose 497 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 2: Jordan Travis, right, Yeah, and Jordan Travis was excellent and 498 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 2: he's been contended for part of the season. And then 499 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 2: they look like dog shit against Florida for half, and 500 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 2: then they come back. You know the quarterback, I mean, 501 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 2: he took a shot. I can't believe he came back 502 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 2: and they get to win. Florida is really bad. 503 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 3: Yep. 504 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,920 Speaker 2: Now they're they're favored by two and a half against Louisville. 505 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 2: First of all, you follow all this stuff super closely, 506 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 2: be honest. Is the committee gonna put them in if 507 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 2: they win this game? Let's say they win seventeen thirteen 508 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 2: against Louisville. Okay, low scoring, it probably won't be that 509 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 2: little could. But let's say they win by four or five. 510 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: Whatever are they getting in? Brad? 511 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 3: I think so. I think they're getting in. I mean, 512 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 3: just now, according to their verbatim, their language, they're not 513 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 3: getting in because Bill Hancock specifically said we are here 514 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 3: to put the best four teams in. Well, that's never 515 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 3: been the case. I mean, if it is the if 516 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 3: you're gonna put always the four best teams in, then 517 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 3: you don't care about the results because you're just going 518 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 3: over who would be favored over who on a neutral field. 519 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 3: Alabama gonna make it every year. Georgian and make it 520 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,719 Speaker 3: every year. Ohio State would make it most seasons. So uh, 521 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 3: I just the precedent. I mean, it's never been done before. 522 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 3: You're gonna leave out an unbeaten team and that you 523 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 3: know hasn't went over LSU. I know Flores stinks this year, 524 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 3: but still your scheduling and had two SEC opponents non conference. 525 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 3: I don't know how you say to those kids thirteen 526 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 3: and oh Conference champ and you're not in because of 527 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 3: a freak injury to your quarterback. I don't know how 528 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 3: you do it. I hope they I mean do I 529 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 3: want to see Florist stay in there. No, but I 530 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 3: just think, I mean, do they deserve to be in 531 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 3: there at thirteen? And oh yeah they do? Are they 532 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 3: one of the four best teams? No, they're not even 533 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 3: a top ten team without Jordan Travis, not even top ten, 534 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 3: not even top fifteen. If you want a hot take, 535 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 3: I got him sixteen right now out of power ratings. 536 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,720 Speaker 2: Wow, that's pretty hot. Now, I'll say this. Can we 537 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 2: keep saying, hey, they're undefeated and they won their conference, 538 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 2: but they did that with Jordan Travis. Without him, there's 539 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 2: like a two game sable size, and then every FSU 540 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 2: fan under the sun is on the internet yelling at 541 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 2: me saying, oh car Dale jobs, what about Cardale's They 542 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 2: wont fifty nine? It was Ohio State. It's not the ACC. 543 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 2: I don't know what, first of all, is that you 544 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:07,160 Speaker 2: gonna win this game. 545 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 3: I had my doubts because it was a struggle last week, 546 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,399 Speaker 3: and I mean that was a Florida defense. Keep in 547 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 3: mind that prior to that, the previous five weeks allowed 548 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 3: forty one points per game, five over five hundred yards 549 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 3: per game, and Florida State mustter two hundred and twenty 550 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 3: four yards. That's not good. I'm not wild about this 551 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 3: Louisville team. If it was a team I was a 552 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,199 Speaker 3: little bit more confident and didn't I think was generally 553 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 3: a little bit overrated. I would have had a money 554 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,520 Speaker 3: line to that. But two and a half seems a 555 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 3: little short right now. I made it three. So I mean, 556 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 3: keep in mind, this was trading just a couple of 557 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 3: weeks ago, like nine ish. 558 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,120 Speaker 2: Really so, so Jordan Travis er Sega is worth about 559 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 2: six and a half points. Do you think that's fair? 560 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 3: But yeah, I think that's pretty fair. 561 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 2: Is there a co What edges does Louisville have? Is 562 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 2: Brahm and edge or no? 563 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 3: Well, I don't know if he's an edge, but you know, 564 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,399 Speaker 3: you look at Norvell had an edge last week in 565 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,879 Speaker 3: the coaching where he could scheme some things out and 566 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 3: you saw them throughout the course of the game get better. 567 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 3: While you know, you look at Florida. I mean a 568 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 3: lot of the reason why it wasn't necessarily what Florida 569 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 3: State did. I mean, Florida just was falling apart. The 570 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 3: undisciplined penalties and stuff. You had a guy get kicked 571 00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:11,480 Speaker 3: out for spitting on somebody. I mean, Louisville's gonna be 572 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 3: more buttoned up than Florida, I'll put it that way. 573 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 3: And Brom's got this history of beating I know flor 574 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 3: State's not there as far as the power rating, but 575 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 3: there's a nice, lofty ranking next to their name, and 576 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 3: Brom has, you know, done that even back at Purdue, 577 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 3: where he beat in Ohio State. He'd beat a highly 578 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 3: ranked Michigan State. He'd bet a highly ranked Notre Dame. 579 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 3: So he kind of plays the level of his opponent. 580 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 3: There's not a significant edge for Norvella in this game. 581 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 3: Where I worry about Louisville. What they do best is 582 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,199 Speaker 3: they stop the run. And obviously, if you want to 583 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 3: get your young quarterback you know, some confidence, you want 584 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,680 Speaker 3: to be able to run the ball at least effectively 585 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 3: where he sets up play action. I'm not sure florest 586 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 3: State's gonna be able to do that in this game. 587 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 3: Another thing Louisville does. They have a guy by the 588 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 3: name of Gelatti on the outside. He's one of the 589 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 3: best pass rushers in the country. If he's able to 590 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 3: get heat on Rod Amak or the quarterback, I don't 591 00:27:58,560 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 3: know if that's gonna be a good look for Flores 592 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 3: State offense. 593 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,640 Speaker 2: So do you have any action? I mean, you said 594 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 2: you made it three, but bet. 595 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 3: Now there's gonna be weather in the game, at least 596 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 3: that's what I'm hearing, maybe significant weather. I've Louisville and 597 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 3: the under is what I bet early in the week. Now, 598 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 3: I mean totals Doallas six points? The sides doubt this 599 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 3: still open five and a half six ish, I mean 600 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 3: it's down quite a bit. So you're a little late 601 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 3: to the party. If you want to bet under in Louisville. 602 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I took money line Louisville. I'm just I just 603 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,199 Speaker 2: want to eating interest. Uh So, let me ask you 604 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 2: though hypothetical, and again we're not gonna go through a billion, 605 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 2: just the obvious. Let's say everybody has Oregon winning. Fine, 606 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 2: let's say Alabama shocks Georgia and every other result holds. 607 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 2: Every other favorite wins. Who you got as your final four. 608 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 3: So every favorite wins except at Georgia. 609 00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 2: Georgia. 610 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, obviously Oregon's in Michigans in those two are easy. 611 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 3: Then it gets complicated, all. 612 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,920 Speaker 2: Right, because Texas beat Alabama. 613 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:58,239 Speaker 3: Oh, they have to put Texas in. But are they 614 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 3: gonna leave an SEC team out, you think, Jason, No, 615 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 3: I think you got network. Do you think they're gonna 616 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 3: leave out the SEC? No? 617 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 2: I think Texas at Alabama, so FS you would get shafted. 618 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I guess maybe Oregon gets shafted. And then 619 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 3: I think about maybe Oregon gets shafted in that regard Oregon. 620 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 3: We've never had something like this, but I think the 621 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 3: chances of something like this happening this year are more 622 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 3: substantial than any year since maybe the year one, the 623 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 3: argument between TC and Ohio State. We've never had a 624 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 3: legitimate argument like we're gonna have on Sunday, in my opinion, 625 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 3: So I don't know. Honestly, you gotta be you gotta 626 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 3: be comfortable enough in your own skin to say I 627 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 3: don't know who gets in. You would hope Texas gets 628 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 3: in because they beat Alabama and they'd be a conference 629 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 3: champion with one loss in the final seconds against the 630 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 3: Okay Oklahoma team, a ten win Oklahoma team. 631 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 2: So what matters? Well, I guess we don't know, because 632 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 2: it's a dumb ass committee. We can't just have sanity prevail. 633 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 2: But like, I don't know, Texas has a good loss, 634 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 2: they have a great win at Alabama, which is you 635 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 2: could argue is better than anybody else's win this season. Right, 636 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 2: who's got a better win? 637 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 3: Absolutely? Now, you know nobody's gotta win like that on 638 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 3: the road. And if you other Fluke is not like 639 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 3: Alabama was hurt or banged up. I mean and Texas 640 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 3: it wasn't like they were plus five internalvers. They controlled 641 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 3: the game and when they had to run out the 642 00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 3: clock with like seven minutes left, they ran the football 643 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 3: right out of Alabama, something we just don't see in 644 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 3: the last fifteen years against the Crimson time. 645 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 2: And FSU's best win was over LSU in September, first 646 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 2: week of the season, and they had their star quarterback 647 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 2: Jordan Travis, who was amazing in that game. Was he not? Yeah, 648 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 2: he was like, oh Jesus, this guy's a future pro. 649 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,360 Speaker 2: I just don't see the case for FSU. And I'm 650 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,920 Speaker 2: not being a hater, I'm just being logical. Like you said, 651 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 2: you don't want to see him in there. Give me 652 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 2: some spreads you're seeing for like a Georgia Oregon semi 653 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 2: final that feels like it would be a major heavyweight battle. 654 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, George would be like two and a half three 655 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 3: that's it. Yeah, that's it. 656 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 2: I mean they I know it was a couple of 657 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 2: years ago, but wasn't it forty nine? 658 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 3: Three year If that wasn't even couple, it was last 659 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 3: year in the opener, I mean Oregon. You know, if 660 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 3: you don't believe, I mean or laying double digest in, 661 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 3: I'm beating team right now. And a lot of people 662 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 3: are stunned by the organ numbers. But yeah, that's it, 663 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 3: that would be it. Or I got an Oregon too, 664 00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 3: I got him ahead of Michigan. 665 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 2: Really, so what are you not? So, by the way, 666 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:13,080 Speaker 2: where are you on McCarthy? 667 00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 3: I like him. He'll be a I mean first round pick, 668 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 3: not a top ten pick for me. That's where I'm 669 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 3: at on him now. 670 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 2: Sometimes it's like the coach's system and the offense they 671 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,880 Speaker 2: want key on running and so we haven't really seen 672 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 2: him unlocked. We did a little bit last year against 673 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 2: Ohio State. Remember he had like three bomb touchdowns of 674 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 2: the two hundred and fifty yards, but like normally it's 675 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 2: like one hundred yards passing because that's what Michigan wants 676 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 2: to do, which is fine, I guess, but like he 677 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 2: almost feels undervalue to Tad No. 678 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 3: I would agree with that. He makes the plays when 679 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 3: he needs to, He plays within the system, He shows 680 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 3: the arm talent when he needs to. I mean that 681 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 3: pass that he threw him between the two guys, you know, 682 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 3: at the goal line where it's you know, is it 683 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 3: a stripp or is it? I mean that throw was unbelievable. 684 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 3: I mean that's top five throw I've seen all season 685 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 3: in college football between those two high out state defenders. 686 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 3: So yeah, I would say he's undervalued right now. I 687 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 3: mean I if I was an NFL franchise getting him 688 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 3: at like pick fifteen or twenty, I mean I'd feel Okay. 689 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,719 Speaker 2: Now, what about bon Nicks. Where are you on him? 690 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 2: Who's he's got like seventy eight percent completions. He's like, 691 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 2: you know, twenty four years old here shortly, Yes, I 692 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 2: think sixty starts, which is some kind of record or whatever. 693 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 2: Where are you on his NFL prospect? Like I saw 694 00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 2: someone break down. They had like a checkdown, Charlie. I 695 00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 2: don't know if you saw that. 696 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he is, but I mean he also 697 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 3: you want to talk about top five throws in college football, 698 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 3: I want he threw across his body last week against 699 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,760 Speaker 3: the Oregon State across the field. You know, it was 700 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 3: like a sixty yard throw that he threw. How many 701 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 3: people can do that. He can run, he's mobile, he's 702 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 3: got experience. I don't know when the Brock parties of 703 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 3: the world and stuff like that can go into the 704 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 3: right it's all about the right system, right coach, When 705 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 3: guys like that can go in and win and be 706 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 3: on a contender like that, Uh, I think a bon 707 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 3: Nicks is perfectly cable doing something like that. Now he's 708 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 3: not going to be drafted last like Brock perty I 709 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 3: think there's a post ability he gets, you know, late 710 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 3: first roundish. 711 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 2: But uh, I like the kid, so, I mean like 712 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 2: Prew so much. 713 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 3: I mean I he kind of like the resiliency. I 714 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,920 Speaker 3: mean he was basically austed at Auburn. He's responded to 715 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 3: the hell of a lot better in Oregon. Again, in 716 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 3: the right system. You've seen what he's been able to do. 717 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 3: It might be the Heisman Trophy winner. 718 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,400 Speaker 2: And you remember his first game at Oregon was such 719 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,719 Speaker 2: a disaster. Uh I think it was his first game 720 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 2: right against Georgia or was that a second gey? It 721 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 2: was last year and it was not good. 722 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 3: I mean it was what forty nine to three. It 723 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 3: wasn't good for Landing or Nicks. 724 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 2: It was bad, right, And to bounce back, there's like 725 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 2: a little a little Jalen Hurts there. You remember Jalen Hurts 726 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 2: getting you know, kind of benched at halftime than that. Yeah, 727 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 2: you know, like you don't see that a lot. And 728 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 2: I guess the last guy I want to ask you 729 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: about his Quentin Ewers, who I'm just I think he 730 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 2: throws a really nice deep ball. Now he's got a 731 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 2: really good pro receiver, but he has been banged up. 732 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 2: You know, he's a guy who had a mullet. He 733 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:53,600 Speaker 2: like left high school early to go make money. I 734 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:56,200 Speaker 2: don't know. I don't know if that stuff matters to you, 735 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 2: but I'm curious. Were you on on Quinn Yours? 736 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a backwards tat guy. No, I'm kidding. He 737 00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 3: needs to come back another year. That's what Quinn Yours 738 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 3: needs to do. Now. That might to the detriment of 739 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 3: your boy arch Manning, but I think Yours needs to 740 00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 3: if he goes out now, he's not going to be 741 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 3: drafted in the first couple of rounds. He's a third 742 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 3: rounder at best, So not a fan. He needs more experience. 743 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 2: Interesting. I remember that you had the Ultimate Arch. I 744 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 2: mean it was a searing take on Arch Manning that 745 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 2: people were fired up about. And it looks like you've 746 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 2: been proven right. I mean, Arch at one point was 747 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 2: number three on the depth chart. That being said, does 748 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 2: he do you think he transfers if quinn Ewers comes back. 749 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 3: I think his NIL deal is too good to transfer, 750 00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 3: So I don't see it as of right now. But 751 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,160 Speaker 3: I gotta tell you, the transfer portal is just getting started. 752 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 3: I mean it's gonna be all time in the next 753 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:49,719 Speaker 3: week or so. As far, I think a lot of 754 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 3: surprising names are going to enter it. 755 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 2: Okay, so let's start with a couple of the big 756 00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:56,359 Speaker 2: ones out there. Quarterback real quick, DJ You who went 757 00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 2: Clemson and again like his first game against Notre Dame 758 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,439 Speaker 2: was like otherworldly, like three hundred fifty yards. Oh, they're 759 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 2: fine without Trevor Lawrence. He has been I don't want 760 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 2: to say garbage, but he's really struggled. Oregon State's coach 761 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 2: leaves he's either going portal or NFL. I would guess portal. 762 00:35:12,360 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 2: It has a way of Spencer Rattler. 763 00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 3: No, yeah, I would take Spencer Rattler over him. Rally 764 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 3: will go pro. And I'll just tell you that their plans. 765 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 3: I think Ratler's going pro. DJ's got going transfer portally 766 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 3: needs another another year in college. But I don't see it. 767 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:31,399 Speaker 3: I'm not I don't even know what. I'm not sure 768 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 3: if he goes to a Power five school, that's how 769 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 3: you know I'm down on a. 770 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 2: Kid, all right. Riley Leonard the Duke quarterback who had 771 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:41,320 Speaker 2: a moment earlier this year, maybe it was in September, 772 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 2: but he like had several good games in a row. 773 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 2: People are seeing like Daniel Jones ish Vanilla Vic kind 774 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 2: of action. What do you think I. 775 00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:48,959 Speaker 3: Think he goes to notre name. I think that's pretty 776 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 3: much done. Deil. 777 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:52,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, that seems to be the word on the street. 778 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 2: I mean, we like Sam Hartman a lot didn't totally 779 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 2: pan out, by the way. I do think he has 780 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 2: some rock perty qualities. 781 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 3: That's that's a good Harrison well done. 782 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 2: You know, if somebody grabs him in the fifth round, 783 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 2: I think that's in Again. You have to go to 784 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 2: like a Shanahan, Kevin O'Connell, somebody good. You can't go 785 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 2: to a ship team like my Jets or the Bears. 786 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, at the very least, he could be a guy 787 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 3: very cable backup quarterback for the next ten years. Those 788 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 3: guys are very valuable. 789 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,799 Speaker 2: You can make a lot of money. Chase Daniels stuck 790 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,879 Speaker 2: in the league forever. Let me go kJ Jefferson. What's 791 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 2: the word on him? Arkansas? 792 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, transfer Portal. I mean this coaches didn't do him 793 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 3: any favors this year. He had a you know, you know, 794 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,800 Speaker 3: really poor OC. They ended up firing the OC in 795 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 3: the middle of the season. So I can't put all 796 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 3: the blame on him. It depends on what system he 797 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,839 Speaker 3: gets have. Big kid, they're gonna fall in love when 798 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 3: he goes to the you know, the Combine in a 799 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 3: couple of years. Uh, they're gonna fall in love with 800 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:43,919 Speaker 3: his measurables. I'll put it that way. 801 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 2: And lastly, Cowherd mentioned this guy. I haven't watched enough 802 00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:51,280 Speaker 2: Washington State, but cam Ward when you pull up his stats, 803 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 2: I mean, this guy's like got some massive numbers. Is 804 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 2: he pro or Portal or staying? 805 00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:00,360 Speaker 3: Yeah? Portal probably the most coveted prospect in the horrible 806 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 3: Right now, I'm hearing whispers of Oregon, at least as 807 00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,839 Speaker 3: of right now. So yeah, and he's the report is 808 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 3: you know he's gotten ten or twelve offers, and I 809 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 3: don't mean one hundred grand offers, I mean like a 810 00:37:13,040 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 3: million dollar offers already. 811 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:18,359 Speaker 2: Wow, So Ohio State brings back its quarterback. McCarthy leaves, 812 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 2: probably with Horble. What's your guests on Harble? 813 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 3: I would say sixty forty staying at this point?

Interesting. 849 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:46,319 Speaker 2: Oh man, he did not have a good year. 850 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 3: He was terrible. Completion, he was terrible. I know he's 851 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:54,280 Speaker 3: a true freshman, but I mean he was deservedly benched. 852 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 3: They were losing games because of him.

I wish I could 893 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,960 Speaker 2: pay closer attention, but as you guys know this, you 894 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 2: can only really dig once you get the kids in 895 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,360 Speaker 2: the family and all that stuff, and you're coaching, and 896 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 2: you just don't have time to watch every game. And 897 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 2: I just it's impossible. So you just kind of, you know, 898 00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:18,400 Speaker 2: look for certain teams, certain big games focus on that 899 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 2: drill down a little bit, and Michigan's won my one 900 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 2: big play, but I have futures on them. When I 901 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 2: went to Vegas to sign up for the CIRCA Contest, 902 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 2: the one futures college football bet I had was Michigan 903 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 2: to win the ninety. So obviously I'm all in on Michigan. 904 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,919 Speaker 2: I need the Wolverines. I would love them to win, 905 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 2: and I also love the storyline Jim Harball going to 906 00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 2: the NFL would be great. Speaking of NFL weird card 907 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 2: this week two and three in the contest last week, 908 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 2: freaking Charger screwed me. Lions was brutal, and then there 909 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 2: was one other I think it was a Patriots. 910 00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 3: Yeah. 911 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 2: I mean, like that could have easily been a four 912 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 2: in one week. If the Patriots don't vomit in the 913 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 2: red zone, missed that field goal at the end, they 914 00:41:56,680 --> 00:42:00,080 Speaker 2: could get the push in overtime or the win. And 915 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 2: you know, Zay Flowers goes for the touchdown run with 916 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 2: like ninety second two minutes left, whatever, nobody does that, 917 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 2: you're supposed to go down. That's the smart move. By 918 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 2: the way, Dallas tried that last night. Right you saw 919 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 2: that they did this almost identical play and Ceedee Lamb 920 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 2: nearly scored and he got tackled, and then Dallas was like, oh, 921 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 2: we'll just settle for the field goal at any rate. 922 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 2: NFL bets this week two totals. I fired on the 923 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 2: under Arizona Pittsburgh. It's at forty one. I looked there 924 00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,720 Speaker 2: could be weather. Doesn't look like it's gonna be cold. 925 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 2: Just might be rain. I don't know. I could just 926 00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 2: see this Pittsburgh defense not conceding much while dominating on 927 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 2: the ground the way. Its the same way the Rams did. 928 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:49,240 Speaker 2: But the Rams and McVeigh are scheming up like wide 929 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 2: open stuff off of the run, and Pittsburgh's not that advanced. 930 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 2: They love to just hold the ball, minimize possessions and 931 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 2: chew clock and don't I just don't see Arizona unless 932 00:42:59,239 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 2: you hit a couple of big to Rondeo Moore, like 933 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 2: everyone else is kind of banged up. So I have 934 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,840 Speaker 2: the Pittsburgh's side. I don't love it. I don't advocate. 935 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:07,200 Speaker 1: No. 936 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,160 Speaker 2: Five is kind of a dead number to five and 937 00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:12,360 Speaker 2: a half now. But I took the under in that one. 938 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:14,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'll go Steelers in the contest. 939 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:18,399 Speaker 2: It feels like it's gonna be mush everybody their moms. 940 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:21,799 Speaker 2: Oh Pittsburgh, Oh Arizona stings. They got blasted. WHOA, Let's 941 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 2: be real, Pittsburgh beat a crappy backup quarterback in Browning. 942 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,800 Speaker 2: I'm not touching Jets Falcons in any way, shape or form. 943 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 2: If I had to do anything, I would have gotten 944 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 2: the Jets at three or two and a half. But 945 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 2: it's down to two. I'm not touching it, you know. 946 00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:38,160 Speaker 2: Truth be told, I don't want the Jets to be 947 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 2: good at this point. So what we scratching? Clawed? Just 948 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 2: miss the playoffs. That's a lost guys. We need to 949 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 2: draft high. So I'm not doing anything there now. I 950 00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,839 Speaker 2: did get Lions when it was three, it's now four. 951 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,200 Speaker 2: It had hit four and a half. The problem with 952 00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 2: the Saints is Ano. They're at home. Everybody's banged up. 953 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 2: Rashid Shaheed, Michael Thomas and I are, and then Chris 954 00:43:58,680 --> 00:44:01,840 Speaker 2: Olave who I haven't two fantasy teams here trying to 955 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:05,479 Speaker 2: head into the playoffs on a positive note, like if 956 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 2: all three of their top receivers are out. I had 957 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:10,919 Speaker 2: to go pick up Lynn Bowden, the former Kentucky star 958 00:44:11,000 --> 00:44:15,720 Speaker 2: who's kind of like Kadarius Tony Light or at Perry's 959 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 2: the other option. Like that's how desperate I am. But 960 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 2: I think the Lions rebound here and get the win. 961 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,080 Speaker 2: I just I'm not a believer in the Saints. Although 962 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:25,880 Speaker 2: you know how this stuff works. The Lions defense is 963 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:29,920 Speaker 2: getting shredded. Derek Carr is getting crushed. Isn't this the 964 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 2: great bounce back spot? With no receivers against the Lions, 965 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 2: Derek Carr will throw for like three p fifty and 966 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 2: it's a crazy game and the Saints win by three. 967 00:44:37,520 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 2: Just remember I said that, Okay, because that's the kind 968 00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 2: of crap that happens with the Saints. But I did 969 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 2: bet the Lions don't know about the contest not doing 970 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 2: I just I can't, guys, I cannot do the Chargers anymore, 971 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,840 Speaker 2: and I can't do the Patriots. So I'm sidestepping this game. 972 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:55,600 Speaker 2: We're the other ones here, Okay. I did take Carolina 973 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 2: at six. I see five and a half. I will 974 00:44:57,600 --> 00:45:04,280 Speaker 2: be taking Carolina in the contest. Coach bump Tampa banged up. Listen, 975 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:06,920 Speaker 2: I know Carolina hasn't covered him forever. Everybody's writing them off. 976 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 2: This is a perfect spot, like should Baker Mayfield be 977 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:13,919 Speaker 2: laying six? Really? So I had to go Carolina here 978 00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 2: and I'll do it in the contest because also nobody 979 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,239 Speaker 2: else has taken them now. Early in the week, I 980 00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 2: looked at the Colts and I was like, I think 981 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:25,359 Speaker 2: I like the Colts. I think Minshew and the playoffs 982 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:29,479 Speaker 2: and Jonathan Taylor and everything's going like they were solid teams. 983 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 2: Shane Steichen probably my new favorite new coach in the league. 984 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 2: He's so good. And then you start looking at the times, 985 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,600 Speaker 2: You're like, wait a minute, the Titans similar Remember the 986 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 2: Browns home road splits. We talked about him last week, 987 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 2: and now everybody else is on it. Well, everybody else 988 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 2: next week is gonna be talking about this. The Titans 989 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,080 Speaker 2: home road splits are crazy. All of a sudden, the Titans, 990 00:45:48,080 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 2: you look and you're like, yeah, they're not that good. 991 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 2: Wait a minute, they're good at home? Why do they 992 00:45:52,600 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 2: stink on the road? These are mysterious things, Like will 993 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 2: Levice not great? Right, we would agree with that, but 994 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 2: at home, Tennessee's plucky. Now they're only four and seven, 995 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:09,880 Speaker 2: but unbelievably in home games in Nashville. They beat the Chargers, 996 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 2: they smacked the Bengals twenty seven to three, they beat 997 00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 2: the Falcons twenty eight, twenty three, and they beat Carolina 998 00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:20,440 Speaker 2: seventeen ten. Those aren't four great teams, but Indy's not 999 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 2: a great team. I think Tennessee gets them here. I 1000 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 2: think this is a winnable game. Again, I'm not a 1001 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,040 Speaker 2: huge believer in Levis Derek. Henry hasn't had one hundred 1002 00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 2: yard game since like before Halloween, like he's had a 1003 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:39,200 Speaker 2: bad season. This to me feels like I get Vrabel 1004 00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 2: picking on the young coach. I get Henry saying, you 1005 00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 2: know what, unleash me and the Colts coming a little 1006 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:48,359 Speaker 2: back down to Earth. I think I'm on Tennessee here 1007 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 2: getting one. I think I'll do it in the contest. 1008 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 2: I did bet them. I did bet Tennessee. Houston and 1009 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 2: Denver probably the most fascinating game of the early window. 1010 00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 2: There's only two Lake game games Rams Browns and Eagles Niners. 1011 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 2: I took Houston minus three. I'm having a little buyer's remorse, 1012 00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:10,600 Speaker 2: but I still think Houston probably gets the job done 1013 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 2: at home. I have a total honesty I totally don't 1014 00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:20,040 Speaker 2: have a grasp on what to make of this Houston team, 1015 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 2: Like they haven't covered as a favorite this year. The 1016 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 2: Denver defense is pretty darn good. But the whole turnovers. 1017 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,279 Speaker 2: You know, Denver's been feasting on turnovers during this five 1018 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 2: game win streak. What's CJ. Stroud gonna start throwing picks? 1019 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 2: Is the singletary or Pierce gonna start vomiting the ball up? 1020 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:42,400 Speaker 2: I don't. I mean, anything's in play, but Stroud not 1021 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 2: great as a favorite. This is just a fade of 1022 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:48,200 Speaker 2: the Denver narrative and Houston three. I don't know if 1023 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,439 Speaker 2: I'll do it in the contest. Sam Fran any way, 1024 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,400 Speaker 2: shape or form is going to be in the contest. 1025 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 2: If it's two and a half three, I don't care. 1026 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:55,279 Speaker 2: I bet them. I told you guys one and a half. 1027 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 2: I like Sam Fran a lot. This week. I out 1028 00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:59,759 Speaker 2: laid it on an earlier podcast. If you missed it, 1029 00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 2: you know, sorry about your luck. Gotta be listening every day. 1030 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 2: San Francisco for me is the side here at two. 1031 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 2: I think Get three they're fine again. I think there's 1032 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 2: a world with an exhausted Philadelphia team, and I know 1033 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 2: that's tough to say, Jason, Come on, they're playing a 1034 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 2: four to twenty five at home. Of course they're gonna 1035 00:48:16,200 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 2: be am, no doubt. But if anybody knows the revenge 1036 00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,600 Speaker 2: angle and that could be overplayed, sure, San Francisco has 1037 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,320 Speaker 2: circled this game for months, as soon as the schedule 1038 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 2: came out. They want revenge. They knew. Listen, I was 1039 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:33,879 Speaker 2: on Sanford in the playoff game and then Perdy goes out. 1040 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 2: I'm like, well, that's a tough one. This is a nasty, 1041 00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 2: angry San Francisco team. Trent Williams healthy, Deebo Samuel's healthy. 1042 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,280 Speaker 2: They like to take advantage of the middle of the field. 1043 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 2: That's what Shanahan does. Philadelphia is getting roasted over the 1044 00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:49,400 Speaker 2: middle of the field. Philadelphia is getting roasted great pretty 1045 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 2: much anywhere. Their entire secondary is just getting crushed. They 1046 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 2: play a lot of man Perty destroys man because his 1047 00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:59,399 Speaker 2: tight end Kittle is awesome and because you can beat 1048 00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:03,160 Speaker 2: just about any one on one. I don't think people 1049 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,680 Speaker 2: fully grasp how bad Philly's been the last four weeks, yes, 1050 00:49:07,000 --> 00:49:11,399 Speaker 2: four wins. Look at the starts they've had, and look 1051 00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:14,520 Speaker 2: at how fortunate they were in the second half. To rally. 1052 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,160 Speaker 2: I mean they were not great against Washington, they got 1053 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 2: out gained. They were not great against Dallas, they just 1054 00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 2: held on for dear life. They were atrocious against KC 1055 00:49:23,640 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 2: for two quarters. They got fortunate that the Chiefs cap 1056 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:29,400 Speaker 2: dropping passes and two red zone turnovers. And then Buffalo, 1057 00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:32,719 Speaker 2: which could do a damn thing, they gave up four 1058 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:35,800 Speaker 2: hundred year. I mean remember Buffalo at home against Denver 1059 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:39,920 Speaker 2: could not do much. They struggled. And then Buffalo goes 1060 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,480 Speaker 2: to Philly in the rain and is shredding like up 1061 00:49:42,520 --> 00:49:46,680 Speaker 2: and down the field like it's nothing. Again. I saw 1062 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:48,840 Speaker 2: stet the Eagles pass defense. This is how bad it is. 1063 00:49:48,840 --> 00:49:51,400 Speaker 2: They've given up twenty three touchdown passes, second worst than 1064 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:55,879 Speaker 2: the NFL. There's a Washington team that hung thirty one 1065 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,279 Speaker 2: on Philly twice, and I know the Philly fans will 1066 00:49:59,320 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 2: be like Jay they one. Sometimes it's processed over results. Guys, 1067 00:50:03,760 --> 00:50:07,719 Speaker 2: just remember that. Okay, I would not be surprised if 1068 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 2: San Fran won like thirty to thirteen. They're front seven. 1069 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,360 Speaker 2: Made a statement. We'll see if Lane Johnson plays. I 1070 00:50:14,480 --> 00:50:18,240 Speaker 2: just the front like this idea, like the Jalen Hurts runs, 1071 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 2: which are all available all afternoon late against Buffalo. That's 1072 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 2: not going to be there. You think they're just running 1073 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 2: all over this front four and then the best lineback 1074 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:31,839 Speaker 2: and crew in the league. We're Philadelphia won last year 1075 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 2: in the playoff game was the deep passes, and now 1076 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 2: you've got Chase Young and Bosa coming off the edge. 1077 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:42,880 Speaker 2: They have been dominant some all sample size together. I 1078 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:48,200 Speaker 2: don't know, guys, I'll say Niners thirty, Eagles thirteen. I 1079 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,840 Speaker 2: will one hundred percent beyond the Niners in the contest. 1080 00:50:51,880 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 2: I did bet Rams at four looks like a bad number. 1081 00:50:54,719 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 2: Lines down to three and a half now. I don't 1082 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,439 Speaker 2: know if that has to do with Flacco DTR. Maybe 1083 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,839 Speaker 2: we've got Rams injury news, but I got a bad 1084 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:03,840 Speaker 2: number four. I still think the Rams win now that 1085 00:51:04,160 --> 00:51:08,200 Speaker 2: the Browns did stay out West this week after playing 1086 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:12,399 Speaker 2: Denver last week. They just with DTR like they can't 1087 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,399 Speaker 2: really move the ball. But the Rams defense is susceptible. 1088 00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,319 Speaker 2: This Rams team, if you look at the schedule, If 1089 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,280 Speaker 2: they win this, mcveih could take them to the playoffs, 1090 00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:24,799 Speaker 2: which would probably be his best coaching job. I like 1091 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:27,080 Speaker 2: the Chiefs favor by six. I know that's not gonna 1092 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:29,680 Speaker 2: be popular. Patrick Mahomes is a big favorite. I just 1093 00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 2: don't care about that stuff. Honestly, these trends, everybody loves 1094 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 2: to try out trends, Like there's some trends are fine, sure, 1095 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:37,759 Speaker 2: and we talked about them with Brad Powers, But this 1096 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,640 Speaker 2: idea that like you could bet games just because of 1097 00:51:40,680 --> 00:51:45,319 Speaker 2: a trend is insanity. Guys, like, just because at the 1098 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 2: roulette table black has come up fourteen times in a row, 1099 00:51:48,680 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 2: it doesn't mean it's coming up a fifteenth. You know 1100 00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:55,239 Speaker 2: that These trends like, I don't know. I just we've 1101 00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,200 Speaker 2: talked about them with a lot of the gambling guests, 1102 00:51:57,560 --> 00:51:59,880 Speaker 2: but I don't know. I'm just not buying that at all. 1103 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 2: I like the Chiefs here. I think they go into 1104 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 2: Green Bay. I think Jordan Love struggles against the man 1105 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 2: to man defense. I think Kansas City. I would not 1106 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,359 Speaker 2: be surprised if this is a nice little statement win 1107 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 2: from the Chiefs. First half against the Raiders, they were sluggish, 1108 00:52:12,040 --> 00:52:15,880 Speaker 2: second half totally dominated, totally, and now they go to 1109 00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 2: Green Bay. I think they handle their business. And I 1110 00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 2: did bet the Miami Dolphins at nine and a half 1111 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:23,919 Speaker 2: against Washington. Good bounce back spot for Washington after getting 1112 00:52:23,920 --> 00:52:27,719 Speaker 2: embarrassed on Thanksgiving, Ron Rivera fires the defensive coordinator. Yeah, 1113 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:31,839 Speaker 2: like that's gonna fix everything. I don't know, we'll see. 1114 00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 2: I want to put Miami in the contest. I did 1115 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,680 Speaker 2: bet them at nine and a half. This is just 1116 00:52:37,600 --> 00:52:41,359 Speaker 2: this team, to me is probably the most dangerous team 1117 00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:43,160 Speaker 2: in the AFC not named the Chiefs. That's not a 1118 00:52:43,160 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 2: hot take because the Ravens are their Jags. I just 1119 00:52:47,840 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 2: this Miami team. Just be very careful going against them. 1120 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:54,400 Speaker 2: I know they sputtered a little bit against the Jets. 1121 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:58,840 Speaker 2: Just think about this. The Dolphins in recent weeks have 1122 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:02,640 Speaker 2: actually faced teams like when you face the Jets defense, 1123 00:53:02,680 --> 00:53:04,799 Speaker 2: it's not gonna be easy, right, You're gonna have to 1124 00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:07,840 Speaker 2: work for everything. The Jets have forced some good quarterbacks 1125 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 2: into bad games. So Miami will go from Man, we 1126 00:53:11,680 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 2: had to face Kansas City rivalry game, not rivalry game. 1127 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 2: We had to face the Raiders where we moved the 1128 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 2: ball at will. We didn't punt for the first three quarters. 1129 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:25,879 Speaker 2: We just couldn't punch it in. And then we face 1130 00:53:25,920 --> 00:53:28,239 Speaker 2: the Jets, and now we face Washington, which is the 1131 00:53:28,280 --> 00:53:31,360 Speaker 2: worst secondary in the league. Pretty much. I mean, this 1132 00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:34,000 Speaker 2: could be a four hundred yard game from Tua. The 1133 00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:35,680 Speaker 2: only thing that's holding them back is the run game, 1134 00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,839 Speaker 2: which may just run all over Washington. So I do 1135 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:39,960 Speaker 2: like Miami there and on Monday Night. I think the 1136 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 2: Jags for sure. I think I gotta put them in 1137 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 2: the contest, even at nine. I just don't I think 1138 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 2: Jake Browning's worth more than a touchdown to the spread 1139 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:51,279 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow.
