Transcript
- 0:03All right guys, welcome to another episode of Targeting
- 0:07Winners National Championship Game Edition.
- 0:11Joining me, as always, is Peter and Darren.
- 0:14How you doing fellas? It's raining here, which means
- 0:20it's not snowing, which means we're above 14°.
- 0:23So, you know, shorts and T-shirt weather here.
- 0:29That's not bad at all. Well.
- 0:31It's going to be cold this week. It's going to be down to the 30s
- 0:34down here. 30s have to go. Out and cover up the pipes and
- 0:38put that little heat lamp in there just in case.
- 0:41It might be like 32 on Friday. I mean, we're down to 79 here,
- 0:45so it's tough. I mean, we're we're I got a long
- 0:47sleeve, so the shirt off. So I mean we're.
- 0:49We're roughing it out here. Covering up your you can't tell
- 0:52if that was a shirt your pasty white skin There, that's it.
- 0:55Yeah, it's done. My goodness.
- 0:59All right, guys, this is the last week of college football.
- 1:03We have one more game left with with, so it sucks.
- 1:08We have one game and before we get into it, let's look into
- 1:12what we got coming up in the offseason.
- 1:14We touched on this last week. We've got on February 12th at
- 1:177:00. We're gonna do a live stream
- 1:19with Mark from Coach's Hot Seat. So if you have any questions, if
- 1:23you're only listening on Spotify, you can e-mail us at
- 1:26cfbdudes@yahoo.com. I think I did get an I didn't
- 1:32check the box, but I did get one of those little red dots.
- 1:35So I think we do have one e-mail in there.
- 1:37So hopefully we get some more coming in for Mark.
- 1:41I know I got a question for Mark.
- 1:42I don't know if you guys have any.
- 1:43What are you guys thinking about that?
- 1:45I honestly just started out one other thing about how people are
- 1:49are listening or if they're not watching, if they're on Spotify,
- 1:52Spotify did add a thing where you can actually leave comments
- 1:54as well. So if you don't want to e-mail
- 1:56and just want to comment a question on on Spotify, whether
- 2:00it's under the video or the audio, you can certainly do that
- 2:03as well. We're just the one game to prep
- 2:07for for today. All I've done is just kind of
- 2:10made a quick sheet of the team, the new coach and the old coach
- 2:14and there's 33 of them. So that's the most in like God
- 2:21that I get. I think some some article I read
- 2:23went back like 2008 and there's never been this many.
- 2:26A couple years ago there was 32. But yeah, one extra this year.
- 2:30Thanks, Sharon. And the other guy who drank in
- 2:33Ohio. But yeah, 33.
- 2:36So I mean, one more and you're talking 25% of the FBS coaches
- 2:39are going to be different from from this year to next.
- 2:42So. And I don't remember hearing his
- 2:44name, but one of them is not Bill Belichick, so he will be
- 2:47back next year. As of now.
- 2:50But then again, I mean, what we we had the Sharon Moore and the
- 2:54guy from Ohio couple years ago, we had the whole Pat Fitzgerald
- 2:58thing. Unfortunately we had the Mike
- 3:00Leach passing, Saban retiring. I mean, there's I I just got a
- 3:05feeling there's one more. But right now 33 openings, 33
- 3:10have been filled. Right now, every FBS team has a
- 3:14a head coach, but. Right.
- 3:16We'll see if. Well, Bill Belichick already has
- 3:18a college age girlfriend so I don't think he has to worry
- 3:20about him running off with another one.
- 3:22So. However, coaching North
- 3:25Carolina, he may have a substantial amount of alcohol in
- 3:28his desk, so. Oh yeah.
- 3:31I mean no offense to him, but watching Gio Lopez for 12 games
- 3:34would probably make me want to. Yeah, he did not do well.
- 3:40Well, once you leave, you know the Group of Five Americas, team
- 3:44of South Alabama, there's only one way that goes down.
- 3:47He's also in the portal, so you know he could end up back in the
- 3:51group of Five dominating yet again.
- 3:53But here we. Go.
- 3:54It's. Probably where he belongs, back
- 3:56in the group of five. It's.
- 3:59Got colder? We'll get to the we have the
- 4:01portal later, but also we are Bull Mania contest concluded
- 4:06last week and we have a winner. Darren, let us know who is it?
- 4:11Jeff of Lane Kiffin's Yoga School has won the pool.
- 4:17He had the two game lead going into the Oregon Indiana semi.
- 4:22I don't know the mindset of of him or the gentleman that was
- 4:25two wins behind him. However, Jeff did roll with
- 4:28Indiana. The person just behind Jeff went
- 4:31with Oregon, maybe thinking that Jeff would roll with Indiana and
- 4:34try and make up a game there. But yeah, once, once that game
- 4:37kicked off, you can see who took who.
- 4:40So about 5 minutes after kickoff, pretty much we knew if
- 4:45Indiana covered it was going to be Lane Kiffins Yoga school
- 4:48winning it all and that that that happened pretty I.
- 4:52Think 2nd place was also named Jeff, so the winners.
- 4:55So apparently if your name is Jeff, get in next year because
- 4:58you have an excellent chance to win.
- 5:00So Jeff will be reaching out in the coming days.
- 5:03We'll get your PayPal or Venmo info, kick you over a couple
- 5:07$100.00 of our money and congratulate.
- 5:10And Jeff is is an OG. He's been listening since the
- 5:12beginning, so. That's Syracuse, Jeff.
- 5:15That is Syracuse, Jeff. He had an unfair advantage.
- 5:18He's been buried under 9 feet of snow since December 1st, so he
- 5:22had plenty of time to research all the games and 'cause he
- 5:25ain't going anywhere. As much snow as you got the.
- 5:28Reasons don't matter, he is the winner.
- 5:31He is the winner. Congrats to Jeff.
- 5:33Although I am going to say for the second year in a row, you
- 5:37know who was on top of this. Country, that's true.
- 5:41For the second year in a row I get a whole fistful of shit
- 5:44'cause I get nothing, I am ineligible.
- 5:46So yes, is Jeff a Florida State hater?
- 5:50Because we have a two year winning streak of Florida State
- 5:53hater winning the pools. So I I don't know if Jeff is a
- 5:57Florida State hater, but hopefully that streak will
- 6:00continue as well. Thanks.
- 6:02But yeah, anyway, Congrats to Jeff.
- 6:04You're this year's winner of the Targeting Winners Bowl Mania
- 6:06pool like so. We'll be in touch in a day or
- 6:09two. Get you all paid and thank you
- 6:11for listening. That money, all right, And this
- 6:16Lee, this week actually marks the end of the transfer portal
- 6:19eventually. Guys, any any more news from
- 6:22here? I hear Riola went to Oregon and
- 6:25earlier today Dante Moore said, yeah, I'm going to stick around.
- 6:28So do you think Viola says I'm going to leave or what do you
- 6:32think is going to happen there? Pete, you're the big 10 guy.
- 6:37What do you? I think you should just stick it
- 6:39out and be the backup, but. Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
- 6:42I mean, I I think, I think he might stick it out and be the
- 6:46backup, but I I don't know what's going to happen there.
- 6:49It's too hard to read, you know, I think it's a possibility he
- 6:52might do something, but I think at the moment, if I had to put
- 6:55money on something, he's probably going to stick it out
- 6:57and stay there. That's where I would guess at
- 6:58the moment. Yeah, it worked out well for for
- 7:02Dante Moore. He was what's his name is back
- 7:04up there, Gabriel before he went to Cleveland.
- 7:06So he's not sat there for a year.
- 7:09At least he won't get hurt. So you know that's not going to
- 7:11happen. If you're on the bench, you
- 7:12can't get hurt. The.
- 7:13Problem is, the guy who created all those quarterbacks is now
- 7:16the head coach of Kentucky. So I don't know who's who the
- 7:20new OC is and if he's great at developing quarterbacks or not.
- 7:24But won't have to worry about that with Dante Moore playing
- 7:27another year. But should he get hurt and Riola
- 7:30gets in there, be interesting to see how he does.
- 7:35I mean, he's got familiarity with the Big 10, but it's not
- 7:38like he was tearing it up statistically.
- 7:39So we'll see. You think for Dante Moore it's
- 7:43money choice? Or do you think his draft stock
- 7:46slipped after the Indiana game? I'm sure.
- 7:48His draft stock is excellent. He didn't want to play for The
- 7:50Jets, but maybe he wants. To play for The Jets.
- 7:54Yeah. I mean, think about it, am I
- 7:55wrong? He's probably.
- 7:56I mean no. Mendoza.
- 7:58Mendoza goes to the Raiders. The thing is, The Jets are
- 8:02really bad. They they do have a ton of
- 8:04issues besides quarterback, but would you want to risk, you
- 8:07know, being drafted by The Jets? At this point.
- 8:11In their franchise, no. Yeah, and.
- 8:14Ty Jets decision. That's just me, I.
- 8:17Was wondering because I think they mentioned Ty Simpson was
- 8:24offered eight figures to stay at Alabama and he's gone pro I.
- 8:28Read 6 1/2. But he is apparently filed his,
- 8:32his paperwork, man. He's, he's going in the draft.
- 8:34Apparently his dad came out and said, you know, everybody we
- 8:37talked to, nobody had a second round grade on him.
- 8:40Everybody said he was going to be a first round pick.
- 8:43So he is I guess officially now since his papers are filed, done
- 8:47with, done with college football.
- 8:49Oh, and Tim, I wanted to ask you, what about your boy Damon
- 8:51Williams signed a big contract to stay at Washington and says
- 8:55now I'm going to go to the portal.
- 8:56And then finally. His representation and.
- 9:00Basically he was like his new representation like dude they
- 9:02are going to F you over hardcore you might as well just stay.
- 9:06So I I just can't wait for the first shotgun.
- 9:09Like does the entire offensive line just move out of the way
- 9:11and let him get his ass handed to him?
- 9:13How do you think that's that? Situation What?
- 9:15What kind of message is that sending?
- 9:17I was thinking the same thing, Like he almost has to leave.
- 9:19He can't be like, yeah, Maddie, OK, I'll come back.
- 9:22You know, it's like, what do you, what do you do at that
- 9:24point? Like the whole team's looking at
- 9:25your side eye, it's like. Well, you know, everybody was
- 9:28quick to blame Lane Kiffin. Lane Kiffin must have got in
- 9:31there and tried to tell him to get into the portal.
- 9:34But then, yeah, Leavitt, who quit on Arizona State, now went
- 9:36to Lane Kiffin as well. So I guess those two deserve
- 9:38each other. But.
- 9:39They do indeed. That's going to be a quite the
- 9:41interesting couple. I think, I think sadly, I think
- 9:45it'll work. I do too.
- 9:47I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought.
- 9:49I just say like Levitt's skill set with his mobility.
- 9:53You know, it worked with Trinidad Chambliss and Jackson
- 9:56Dart before him. I guess we'll see how much of
- 9:58that was was Charlie Weis junior calling the plays.
- 10:01But what Kiffin likes to do, Levitt seems to fit so.
- 10:07Interestingly enough, I believe LSU opens SEC play next year at
- 10:11Ole Miss, so that'll be a fun game for all that will.
- 10:14Be for sure highest rated game of the season.
- 10:16At that point I got a feeling. Daggers are going to be out in
- 10:19that place. Is that a home game for LSU or
- 10:22is that a? Old.
- 10:23I believe it's at Ole Miss. At Ole Miss, the dagger's going
- 10:27to be out, man, That's going to be wild.
- 10:29He's going to die. That's going to be must see TV,
- 10:34right? There is that the team that
- 10:35throws mustard on the field or something?
- 10:36What team is that? I got a feeling Mustard hitting
- 10:42him is going to be the least of his concerns.
- 10:43Because that is. Well, it could be worth they
- 10:45could be located in Philly because then they got to watch
- 10:48out for those AA battery or you. Might see like car tires come
- 10:52flying from the stands or something.
- 10:53I mean it's. Not going to be good, man.
- 10:56It's not going to be good at all.
- 10:58But I'll be watching because I'm a sick bastard.
- 10:59So yeah, see what's going on. Well, like I said, Couch
- 11:04football season ends this week. One star do not recommend.
- 11:09But this is one game left. We got Miami against Indiana for
- 11:14all the marbles. Well, let's talk about it.
- 11:17Got some stats up there on on the screen.
- 11:19Peter, what are your initial thoughts on this one?
- 11:23Well, we got one team here that was looking pretty inevitable a
- 11:26number of weeks ago with Indiana.
- 11:28I mean, they were looking pretty unbeatable for quite, quite some
- 11:30time. Not that I didn't pick them to
- 11:33lose last week, but every bet I made last week was a loss.
- 11:35So we won't even talk about but I mean, Indiana's obviously been
- 11:40absolutely rolling and dominant. So yeah, so no big surprise
- 11:45there here Miami and how they've they've been hot of like clearly
- 11:50and playing really well. So I'm I'm really, really
- 11:54interested in this game. Obviously we were talking all
- 11:57the way and texting all the way through these these games.
- 12:01You know, when this game opened up with that point spread, to
- 12:05me, the spread is too big. I get it, right?
- 12:09Indiana is pummeling people. I mean, the stats are up.
- 12:12That's great. They're beating the living
- 12:14bejesus out of people. I get it.
- 12:17But that Ducks game was a little bit of an aberration.
- 12:20I mean, once you, you know, you turn the ball over multiple
- 12:23times in the first half. And so now you're down and
- 12:27you're chasing and you're taking risks and you're flaying the
- 12:30ball around. That is not a recipe for success
- 12:33against a defensive team like Indiana.
- 12:35They're going to kill you, right?
- 12:37So that that that game got completely out of hand early
- 12:40because of those turnovers. Those turnovers don't happen.
- 12:43That game would have been closer.
- 12:44No, I think the Ducks would have won the game, but it would have
- 12:47been a closer game. So I think that score is a bit
- 12:50of an aberration because of the turnovers.
- 12:52That's it, right? So I don't think that score is
- 12:55indicative of how much better Indiana is than Oregon.
- 12:58Point in time turnovers, all that good stuff.
- 13:01You know, Miami, that was, that was an excellent game.
- 13:04They they played a very good game.
- 13:05That was an excellent game to watch.
- 13:06I was enjoying the heck out of the game.
- 13:08I actually thought they were going to lose that game.
- 13:10So yes, and winning that game very late broke my heart because
- 13:15I, I lost 2 bets on that play. So that wasn't the best thing in
- 13:19the world for me. But it's a team that's been hot
- 13:22and I've been kind of leaning into the past month or so in
- 13:26terms of bets a little bit. So, so, you know, this is, this
- 13:32is interesting. I mean, Carson Beck, I was
- 13:34worried about him doing something.
- 13:37Well. Carson Beck ish right and
- 13:39costing them a game but actually played pretty damn felt out the
- 13:43stretch. We haven't seen a crystal ball
- 13:45moment. We talk all the time about
- 13:47crystal ball moments and him doing a crystal ball right.
- 13:51That's why we call them crystal ball moments.
- 13:54Where are they? He's got too much talent on that
- 13:59team and I don't, like I said, I don't think it matters.
- 14:01He's such a good recruiter that he's finally has a team and it
- 14:03doesn't matter what what he does.
- 14:05There's just. Too much.
- 14:06I think he's letting his coordinators just run the show.
- 14:09Yeah, being a little less hands on.
- 14:12He's got excellent coordinators, but.
- 14:14Yeah. Unbelievable talent.
- 14:17I mean, to your point to him, the talent on this team is is
- 14:19amazing. So, you know, for me, I just
- 14:22don't with the talent on that team, I cannot see weighing 8
- 14:281/2 points. To me that is, that's insane.
- 14:30I just can't now watch. They'll go out there and blow
- 14:32them up by 25 or something. I just can't see that happening.
- 14:35There's way too much talent on the Miami side of the ball.
- 14:38I'm not suggesting Miami's going to win this game.
- 14:40I do think Andy and I will probably win this game, but I
- 14:44don't think they're going to win it by more than 8 1/2.
- 14:46I think Miami's going to keep it close.
- 14:48So I really like this 8 1/2. A lot.
- 14:52I should bet more than one unit, but at this rate, the way my
- 14:55bets are going, I'm afraid to do anything.
- 14:57So I'm betting 1 unit Miami plus 8 1/2 because I do think this is
- 15:02going to be a close game and I do think it's going to be a
- 15:04pretty defensive game as well. So I think with that many points
- 15:08at a defensive game, I think that's a lot of points.
- 15:10So those are my thoughts. Yeah, I like that bet.
- 15:13What do you think about that bet, Darren?
- 15:15I agree. When I first looked like is
- 15:17before the game had started and after the first game ended on
- 15:20Thursday night, they, you know, their look at headlines are all
- 15:24over the place. Oregon would have been like a
- 15:25two point favorite. Indiana would have been like a 5
- 15:281/2 point favorite. And then as the second-half was
- 15:31going in the Indiana game, like touchdown after touchdown, every
- 15:35time he looked at a line, it kept going up until like
- 15:38Saturday morning it was 7 1/2 and it didn't even stop there.
- 15:43But to Pete's point, his bet was my first thought.
- 15:47I was like, that's, that's too many, man.
- 15:49I mean, you look at what Miami has done.
- 15:51I mean, they shut down A and MA fairly good offensive team.
- 15:55They shut down Ohio State, also a decent offensive team.
- 16:00Ole Miss probably the the most explosive offense they faced.
- 16:04But again, you know, Peter mentioned about Carson Beck not
- 16:07doing Carson Beck things. You know, this was Ole Miss
- 16:10probably the worst defense by far, you know, left in the final
- 16:14four. And you know, when I looked at
- 16:16this game, I really wanted to have a play on a side here.
- 16:21We can't last game of the year didn't want to like I should
- 16:24just pick a side to pick a side. But it kept going back and
- 16:28forth. I mean, you look at the the all
- 16:29the statue you had up Tim all relatively equal, which you
- 16:32would expect this time of the year.
- 16:33You got two teams left, probably two of the best teams out there.
- 16:36But there's there's three things that I slightly favor Indiana,
- 16:41but not enough to lay the points.
- 16:43But I don't trust Miami enough where I think one of these
- 16:46things might happen, where might not be enough points.
- 16:50So first thing, coaching. If you had to pick a coach to
- 16:54coach this game, you're probably leaning Signetti.
- 16:59And yeah, took Cristobal's credit.
- 17:00He's not Cristobal yet this year.
- 17:03Maybe he's learned. Maybe he's.
- 17:04Due. Maybe he's due, but you know,
- 17:09I'm still going to give a slight coaching edge to Signetti here.
- 17:12Quarterback play. Beck played well against Ole
- 17:16Miss, but if you look at the two other games, he only threw for
- 17:19103 yards against A&M and he only threw for 138 yards against
- 17:22Ohio State. Indiana's defense is a heck of a
- 17:25lot more like those two teams than it is.
- 17:27You know what the Ole Miss defense put out there.
- 17:29And I don't know if you guys looked at the playoff stats.
- 17:32I mean, Indiana's had two games, Mendoza's got 8 touchdown passes
- 17:36and only 5 incompletions. Who the hell?
- 17:39I don't even do that on Madden or you know, our college
- 17:42football 25. Like this dude is just I mean
- 17:45it's I mean every back shoulder throw to Sarat is like perfectly
- 17:49placed. I mean you know, this guy throws
- 17:51a pass, it's like it's going to be a completion.
- 17:54It seems he's cleaning like 73% of his passes.
- 17:56It's just ridiculous. So I'm going to give the slight
- 17:59edge to Mendoza, but only because Beck does have the
- 18:01experience. He he's played enough football.
- 18:03This moment won't be too big for him statistically.
- 18:07I don't expect him to do what he did against Ole Miss, but I I
- 18:10don't think he's going to cost his team the game here.
- 18:12And the third thing, and this is actually a stat and I, I didn't
- 18:16see this on your list, but then again, I'm blind but deaf.
- 18:19But penalties, Indiana just does not commit penalties.
- 18:25They are second in the country, fewest penalty yards per game.
- 18:29The you they're outside the top 80.
- 18:32I don't know what conference is officiating this game as of yet,
- 18:37but yeah, they're 85th in penalty yards per game.
- 18:40And if they, you know, you stop Indiana on 3rd down, you, you
- 18:44get a roughing the passer in there or you, you know, get a
- 18:46taunting penalty, certainly something that Miami is capable
- 18:49of. You know, you don't want to
- 18:51extend any drives for Indiana because Signetti's not going to
- 18:56take his foot off the gas. I mean, if he can win this game
- 18:58by 24 points, he's going to. So yeah, just those three
- 19:03things. Slightly into Indiana, not
- 19:07strong enough to bet it, but again, don't trust Miami.
- 19:11So my bet, since we're talking about two really good defenses.
- 19:13Oh, you, you got your bet first. Oh, yeah.
- 19:16Oh, there. You go?
- 19:17Yeah. I went first quarter under 9 1/2
- 19:19points. I got a nice little plus 1/20 at
- 19:21FanDuel. It was 10 1/2 yesterday.
- 19:24But it was juice like -138 or something.
- 19:27I didn't want any part of that. So I'm going to go with, you
- 19:31know, maybe ease into the game plan a little bit.
- 19:34I mean, what, what happened when Oregon on their first play of
- 19:36the game? I, I don't think my engine's
- 19:37going to try anything ridiculous.
- 19:38I think they're going to be pretty conservative to get, you
- 19:41know, to get going, especially after watching that play.
- 19:44And again, there's going to be that feeling out process.
- 19:46I expect this to be a low scoring first quarter.
- 19:50Whatever happens after that, don't really care.
- 19:52But I can see a couple field goals, maybe even 3 nothing.
- 19:55You know, I could see more punts than points in this first
- 19:58quarter here. So just the magnitude of the
- 20:00game, you know that that that pick 6 right off the bat.
- 20:03I don't see Miami doing anything ridiculous.
- 20:06So I have one unit, a little bit of plus money on the first
- 20:09quarter under 9 1/2 points. Nice.
- 20:12All right, I like Pete's bet. Actually, I it's a home game for
- 20:18Miami, I mean, and they've. How was Louisville?
- 20:23OK, this is a different level of a game.
- 20:28Maybe they underestimated Louisville.
- 20:33So I just this whole thing, I I hate this game so.
- 20:37Agreed. You know, I, I forgot the
- 20:39picture. I was going to put a picture and
- 20:40put it up here. I had like Chief Osceola and
- 20:42Renegade, but they're all decked out like Indiana stuff.
- 20:45So Photoshop like all Indiana red and everything on there.
- 20:49I really want Indiana to win this game.
- 20:51I did not want to jinx it by betting.
- 20:53I think they can cover the 8 1/2 but I did bet on the over of 47
- 21:001/2. I got that on Hard Rock bet.
- 21:02I think it was 48 1/2. I heard buddy of mine was saying
- 21:06on FanDuel or DraftKings, wherever the hell else ones, but
- 21:10on if you're able to get on Hard Rock bet you can get 47 1/2 back
- 21:14to over. This is basic math with shoulder
- 21:19pads. So you know, Indiana averages,
- 21:21you know, 40 points a game. They convert 60% on 3rd downs.
- 21:26Miami, they also they convert almost 50% on 3rd down.
- 21:31They're going to keep the a lot of drives going.
- 21:34I think there's going to be a lot of points if I'd love for
- 21:38Indiana to cover the over for me by themselves like it did last
- 21:41week. But I don't see that happening
- 21:44if if the game does get to be a total shootout that favors, you
- 21:49know, Indiana to win. So I would like that to happen.
- 21:54The Canes, they're very efficient moving a ball that
- 21:57Carson Beck doesn't pass that much.
- 21:59Well, they got #4 there. He could win the ball like
- 22:02crazy. They got the Tony kid, well,
- 22:08Malkai Tony, he's like the household name #4 whatever his
- 22:10name is. And they got Bain #3 and then
- 22:14isador #4 So they on the on defense.
- 22:17There you go. They're all going to be on
- 22:20different teams next year. Get off it.
- 22:22I don't care. They're all going to enter the
- 22:26transfer portal the minute the game is over.
- 22:28And they're all going to be, you know, playing in Alabama, LSU,
- 22:31wherever, wherever the hell else.
- 22:33So for me and the red zone they're going to get, there's
- 22:36going to be some turnovers in this game.
- 22:39And if they get into the red zone a lot, it's going to be a
- 22:41shorter field. Both these teams, they score
- 22:44basically 90% of the time when they get into the red zone.
- 22:47So I think Indiana's going to do what they do.
- 22:51Miami is efficient enough to keep it.
- 22:53Close I'm. Hoping they you know, obviously
- 22:57hope they lose the game, but I like the over 47 1/2 and I bet 2
- 23:01units on that. I wanted to bet a whole bunch of
- 23:04bets on this one. I wanted to bet a winner.
- 23:06I want want to bet the over under.
- 23:07I want to do a couple quarter things, but my New Year's
- 23:10resolution less bets more money on each bet.
- 23:12So I'm going 2 units on the over 47 1/2.
- 23:18Boy is your thoughts. Another thing I kind of like
- 23:21that, I don't know if you guys remember fourth quarter of the
- 23:24Ole Miss game last week, Xavier Lucas, defensive back for Miami,
- 23:28who at the time who was leading the team in tackles at that
- 23:32point in the game, called for targeting, upheld, ejected.
- 23:35You will miss the first half, so do add info what you will, but
- 23:40you know 1 less skilled player in the secondary that that
- 23:44Mendoza does have to worry about.
- 23:46So keep an eye on that for the first half.
- 23:48But The thing is, with all that talent, next guy up, I mean,
- 23:52they probably got somebody. They probably got a four-star
- 23:54kid from Miami High School right behind them that can.
- 23:59That's a fairpoint and we're going to find out because I
- 24:01guarantee Signet, he's going to throw his way a couple times to
- 24:04see to see what the deal is. Well.
- 24:06If a defensive back is leading Miami and tackles, that's also
- 24:10good for Indiana. So that's.
- 24:12Yeah, because that means you're running past the line and the
- 24:14linebackers and the secondary is being forced to make the
- 24:16tackles. So Roman Henby Kelly on Black
- 24:20Indiana's 2 headed running back duo could have a could have a
- 24:24nice day. Yeah, like this bet.
- 24:26Like this bet, I've been getting burned on unders.
- 24:28I I like this bet quite a bit. If I was going to do anything,
- 24:30it'd be the over here, so I like it.
- 24:33Well, since we all jinxed that so there we go we all agree it's
- 24:37going to lose tank it so well. This has been a short show guys
- 24:45I mean we've got what only one game?
- 24:49This is sad I. Don't want to look at this.
- 24:52I mean, but hey, well, I mean, Pete, what do you got for your
- 24:57bet? What is We each have one bet
- 24:59this week. 1. Game one bet.
- 25:01So there you go. Right.
- 25:03I think Miami plus 8 1/2 over Indiana and that's it.
- 25:08As you can see, my bowl record last week was abhorrent.
- 25:10I went after four games. I should never do that.
- 25:12So anyway, move. On last week I I have two units
- 25:17on the under 47 1/2, three and one last week.
- 25:20First winning week in like over a month so that was good.
- 25:24Still down 4 units. Darren, what you got?
- 25:28I am just going with the first quarter under under 9 1/2 + 120,
- 25:33which was still available at FanDuel as we sat here.
- 25:38Yeah, my only thing last week was was Indiana.
- 25:44Yeah, I don't know. I hate bowl season.
- 25:46I really hate betting bowl season.
- 25:47I love watching it. I I hate betting it.
- 25:49It's. It's hard to bet these days.
- 25:51It's all there really is. I am not playing.
- 25:53It's just too many factors. It's impossible to bet.
- 25:56Yeah, that it was rough. It was fun, but it was rough.
- 25:58But. It's fun to watch, yeah, but
- 26:00it's hard to bet. Yep.
- 26:02This is why we track people, because we can look at this bowl
- 26:04season and be like, yeah, I'm just gonna bet like one game a
- 26:08week. Yeah.
- 26:10Pretty much that's what we should be doing one game a week,
- 26:13yeah. We're idiots.
- 26:14We're all partially seen. I mean, yeah, my, my beating.
- 26:19So thank God for the Rams. Let me tell you, they've been
- 26:22keeping me afloat. My God, yeah, I cash in.
- 26:27They're they're going to lose this weekend in Chicago.
- 26:29It's gonna be like 8 or something.
- 26:30So probably I had a Super Bowl bet with them at +222250 and
- 26:36they offered me 9 to 1, so I took it.
- 26:38I just like cash. And I was like, yeah, get some
- 26:41money in there for next college football season.
