  Speaker 1: start off this show horrible Sunday one and five. I
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: don't even know what to tell you above that. I
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: just don't want to do this anymore. I have never
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: seen anything like this. Man with the slump continuing. Two
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: straight losses, not a good day at all. Own four
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: that have not had a good season. Man with bookends
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: slump that I'm on, and the slump continues, I've reached
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: a new peak. Actually, I'm going to burn my Bruins
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: hack Man, I don't know what is going on with
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: the Bruins arch hape? Is that what it is? I
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: don't even know it's It's March ninth, I think who
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: even knows? Man, I don't know what data is anymore.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: But I don't even know what data is anymore. Man's
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: back with you after the worst day that I can
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: possibly have, Back with you as I always am until
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: I die at least oh and two. Yesterday and yesterday

  Speaker 1: month that I've ever had in my eighteen years doing this.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know what to even tell you about this anymore.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: To the slump yesterdays, the slump discontinuous, the slump continues.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Somebody fucking kill me, please. I don't even know what
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: I should do at this point, other than potentially end
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: it all. What's up, everybody, It's towed back with you.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Toadstool Sports, Tuesday, December ninth, Winning day on the show yesterday,
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: I want to oh with the win on the La Kings.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: They didn't exactly like win the game statistically fully, I mean,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: they were not the more physical team in the game,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: although with the Kings, I mean, I don't really know
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: if you expect them to be. But they did have
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: the h the shot edge in the game. They won,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: so we'll take it. They're up two to nothing to
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: start the game, and then they did not falter. They
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: let it slip to two to one, but then they
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: pushed it to three to one, I think, and then
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: it was over. I think it might have been three
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: to two. After that, they won four to two. We'll
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: move on to today obviously, as we usually do, as
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: we always do until I'm no longer here. Obviously, we'll
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: jump right into it, man, Although I actually I guess
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: we could talk about the NFL game. There's just some
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: weird NFL results, man. I mean people are talking about
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the the ending to the Raiders game, like, oh, there
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: must have been it must have been rigged. There must
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: have been money on the Raiders side there maybe. I mean,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: I'm not buying into Pete Carroll having bet on his
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: own team because the way that you can ensure that
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: you win money is by betting against them, so like
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: point shaving or whatever. So it was the opposite. But
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I don't know. People are saying, well, why would he
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: kick the field goal at the end, Well, what are
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: you supposed to do? Like if if you want to
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: get more points, if you're competitive, like, it's more likely
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: you're going to make that field goal than score a
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: touchdown on a hail Mary, and either way you're not
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: going to win the game, So why not just take
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: take points? I mean, I don't know it. Well, it
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: didn't seem that crazy to me. What led up to
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: it was crazier with the refing calls and whatever, and
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: the penalty that led to that, which was kind of strange.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: And then last night some bizarre things going on in
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: that game. I just happened to have it on up
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: here while I was up here. I don't even remember.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: I think I was. I was getting my I was
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: doing some of my my album Top ten list of
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: the Year, and I had it on over here, and
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I just happened to be watching it when
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: the Jalen Hurts to turn overplay happened, which is something
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: that I don't believe has ever happened before in the NFL,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: the same player turning the ball over twice in one play.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: If you didn't see it, Jalen Hurts did that in
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: the second quarter, I think shortly before halftime. He threw
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: an interception to I want to say it was a
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: lineman and the linemen started running with it, fumbled the football.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts recovered the fumble, started running with it, fumbled,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: and the Chargers got the ball back. Dude, I've never
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: seen anything like that. Man, three turnovers on one play
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: and two by Jalen Hurts. That's just insane. But that
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: is what happened. And then the ending to the game
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: was crazy too. People are gonna say that was rigged
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: as well, because it wound up going into overtime. Chargers
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: got the ball first. It looked like they were driving
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: pretty easily. It looked like they were gonna get a touchdown.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: They stalled out. They kicked a field goal, so then
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: they had to hold Philly to a field goal. It
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: looked like Philly was gonna get nothing because Philly got
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: set back with a holding penalty and they had third
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: and sixteen. But they converted it and then it's like,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: all right, well, they're probably gonna score a touchdown here,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: got all the way down to I think they did
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: have a fourth down conversion on that drive as well. Actually,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: when they were just outside of field goal range, I
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: think it looked like they might get stopped again. I
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: think they converted again, or actually I think there was
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: an off side It's a neutral zone infraction. Totally ridiculous.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Extending the drive overtime was a roller coaster, man. And
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: then they got all the way down towards the goal line,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: looking like they're gonna score the touchdown and win the game.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: The Eagles and Hurts throws another interception at the goal line,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: and with that play you get money line on the Chargers.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Chargers cover because the line was like two to two
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: and a half, maybe down to one and a half,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: and it stayed under the lowest total of forty one
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: and a half by a half point, all because of
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: that interception to end the game in overtime. That's crazy, dude,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: because all three of those are about to flip the
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: other way. So yeah, I mean that is strange. But
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: NFL lines are really tight. Man. All right, let's get
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: into basketball today. I'm gonna have two plays. I don't
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: have anything outside of the two basketball players today. I
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: have some opinions on some of the other games, but
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: not too strong. We have an early ish game here. Well.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Besides this one PM game between Yuo Monroe and a
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: non Division I team, Arkansas Baptist, there's a five pm
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Eastern game Buffalo and UNBC. At UNBC, Buffalo just took
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: their first loss of the season to Saint Bonaventure, So
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: I talk about it. When a team takes their first loss,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: sometimes it hangs them over to the next game. Not
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: only that, but it might be a little bit worse
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: for Buffalo because Buffalo put up a big fight in
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: that game. Man. It was a game where they were
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: an underdog against a pretty good Bondaventure team and they
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: took the loss. Buffalo is not as good as their
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: eight and one record looks. Their best win is against DePaul.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: I guess on the road. I mean, I guess pretty
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: impressive to beat a big East team on the road,
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: although it is to Paul Buffalo, I think they will
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: be hung over here. I like UNBC, and people are
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: gonna look at this and think, well, it's basically like
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: a pick the winner spread here, right, So obviously you
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: take the eight and one team over the six and
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: three team. But I would say not in this case.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: I would say UNBC is the way you want to
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: look UNBC coming up a pretty easy win, I would
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: say over buck Now. Buck Now is not good, although
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: it's not like UNBC is really that good. And that
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: was on the road, but back at home, I expect
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: UNBC to get that one. That's the way that I
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: would look in that game wherever it is here, there
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: they are. Buffalo is down from one and a half
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: to a pick them now in that one. So the
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: money seems to be agreeing with that one. Over in
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: Clemson BYU, I don't have much of a feeling on that.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: I have more of a feeling on the side in
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: that game. I'll talk about that game in a second,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: but I don't know if I'm really gonna have any
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: sort of opinion on a total. I don't usually have
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: many opinions on the basketball totals. Mister Pinzy, what's up man?
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Thanks for hanging out Maryland at vm I. Actually, why
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: am I talking? I don't want to talk about every
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: one of these games. I don't know why I brought
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: this game up, just because it's at a weird time
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: at six pm. Loyal and Marymount just took a somewhat
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: ugly loss at Hampton, so they could be in a
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: bounced back spot here. Vm I is kind of in
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: a positive spot too, because they just broke a long
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: lost streak with a win, and their schedule hasn't exactly
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: been easy either, So this is another one of those
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: games where VMI is a favorite by one, and I
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: think people are gonna look at this and not really
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: want them because they're ugly at four and seven. Well,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: Loyal and Maryland four and six not that much better.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: But I think both teams are in positive spots here.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, maybe the way to look
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: is to the home team here, because VMI is three
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: and one at home. Loyle owned four on the road,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: although early season you can't really totally gauge everything based
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: on just home road dichotomies or whatever, because a lot
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: of it is about who did these teams actually play.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Although UNBC, by the way, is undefeated home before I
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: get out of get off of that game completely four
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: and zero at home. So Villanova at Michigan as the
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: first big game up at six thirty pm Eastern. This
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: is at Michigan. Michigan ranked second in the country. Ken
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Bum actually has the number one right now. Villanova, they're
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: not that bad, like they seem to be kind of
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: on the rise. Again, I think ken Bum might have
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: them like somewhere in the thirties range right now. Let
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: me see where's he Where's he got them at? Yeah?
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Thirty five? Villanova. They slow the game down, So that's
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: the one thing of the day do Michigan is probably
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: going to be trying to speed this thing up. Michigan
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: does play at a pretty fast tempo, very fast tempo,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: so this is a contrast of styles as well. So
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: if Michigan is able to speed it up, that is
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: not going to be good for Villanova because they want
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: to play slow. Michigan definitely the better team here. Michigan
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: is coming off a bunch of impressive wins. I mean,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: they wiped all their opponents in the players Era thing Vegas,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: and then they came off of that and they had
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: their conference home opener and annihilated Rutgers. But after you
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: beat so many teams by like thirty plus points, most
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: of them by forty or more, there's no way that
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: you can really find value on a team that's on
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: a run like that. Man, So at some point there's
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: gotta be some regression here. Maybe it is here. I mean,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: they do have another conference game up next against Maryland,
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: so it is possible based on the situation, maybe Villanova
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: is able to get within this number. I mean, Michigan
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: just looks way too unstoppable right now. Villanova's coming into
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: this off of winning some Philly games. I mean, yeah,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: that's gonna be satisfying to beat little brothers in the
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Philly area, Temple and Penn. But the spot I think
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: is slightly worse for Michigan here. If Michigan's able to
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: control the Temple, I would worry though about Villanova, although
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: the money is kind of indicating on Villanova after Michigan
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: went up to a seventeen point favorite. Sixty eight percent
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: of the tickets and only fifty one percent of the
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: cash on Michigan, so the money is seemingly agreeing with
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: the Villanova side. Plus the points there, I won't really
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: disagree with it, but it's not one of my favorites
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: by any means at all. I have some concerns about that, Zach,
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: what's up? Man? Yes, yes, sir, glad to get the win. Man.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: Not gonna win every single one of them, but yeah,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: I'm glad that one was a winner. As usual, I
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: get pissed when things are not winners. All right. Clemson
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: at number ten BYU. This is on ESPN. This is
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: at Madison Square Garden, so it's kind of a weird
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: spot here where Clemson gets to stay in their own
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: time zone. Clemson is coming up a really difficult game
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: against Alabama, though. Man, they went to Tuscaloosa and they
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: only lost to Alabama by six, and I'm pretty sure
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: this game was close. Alabama was a fairly substantial favorite
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: in this game, and Clemson played them really tight. Man,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: Clemson had chances to maybe even win this game after
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: they were getting be blown out of the game. They
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: were gonna he destroyed in the first half, came back
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: and actually took the lead in the second half. They
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: had the lead again late by one point with two
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: forty one left in the game, and then fell flat.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be difficult for Clemson to get
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: back up off the mat after that. Man, Now they
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: got to play BYU, although it is again in the
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: Eastern time Zone. BYU is gonna have to travel from
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: home to the Eastern time Zone for this, which does
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: worry me a little bit. Although BYU is coming up
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: an easy win over cal Baptist in their last game,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: so I think the spot does set up better for BYU.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I would lay it with BYU if I was gonna
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: play this one other up from five and a half
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: to six and a half, ninety two percent of the
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: tickets and ninety seven percent of the cash on Clemson,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: So the money kind of looks like it's on Clemson,
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: I guess, although they're kind of looking like a public
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: side to this is the Jimmy V Classic, By the way,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: sponsored by Medello. The Mexican surveys people. Maybe people would
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: somewhat have a tendency to think the spread is a
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: little big and want to come in on this Clemson
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: team because they've been good in basketball the last couple
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: of years seven to two. All of this number ten
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: ranking in front of Biu's name makes me think maybe
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: BYU will be a public side. The way that I
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: look at it, I think BYU is the right side
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: in that game. Though BYU Ken Bomb actually has the
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: ninth in the country, they do play faster than Clemson does.
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: The BYU is not as fast as they were last year,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: at least not right now, but Clemson wants to play
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: significantly slower than BYU. So BYU is able to speed
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: up the tempo, then that may throw Clemson off as well,
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: which then kind of segues into Pinzy's question about the total. Here,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: this could be a situation where the side and the
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: total of correlated the total drop from one to fifty
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: one and a half to one fifty and a half.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: But I think if you like BYU, which I do here,
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I think that probably means they're going to be speeding
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: the game up more, which if BYU is going to cover,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: that probably means the game is also going to go
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: over more likely, So I don't really disagree with the over,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: but it's a contrast in styles, Like I like, if
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: I was gonna play an over, I would tend to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: like to do it with two teams that like to
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: go up tempo, although of course if that's the case,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: they're gonna get an even higher total. Clemson, they're gonna
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: try to contrast that it slow it down. If they
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: were able to do that, they might actually be able
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: to cover this as well. So total in that one, again,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: I think depends on what you think of the side.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: So I'll slightly agree with the over just because I
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: think BYU will cover that. But yeah, I mean, I'm
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: not really a total guy, so I wouldn't put too
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: much weight into what I'm saying there. Maryland Eastern Shore
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: is at the now ranked Virginia twenty four. Virginia, they're
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: back in the rankings. Man, Virginia basketball. Are they back?
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: Maybe they're ain't one. But their schedule has not really
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: been that difficult yet. They have one really good win
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: or a pretty good win at least here against Texas
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: on the road, and there are only losses to Butler,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: which Butler is not that great. I mean, it's not
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: a great loss. It's not the worst possible loss either.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: But now Virginia's coming up not only beating Texas, but
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: they beat a pretty good dating team after that. Now
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: they're getting Maryland Eastern Shore and up next they have
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: to play Maryland. Although it's not for eleven days, but
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: this might be a spot where Virginia just tries to
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: get in get out. It's kind of a sandwich spot.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Maryland Eastern Shore is awful, but Virginia plays slow. I
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: think Maryland Eastern Shore is also going to want to
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: play slow here, so it does kind of have the
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: makings for maybe a low scoring game. Yeah, Maryland Eastern
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Shore is literally the slowest paced team in the country,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: and Virginia does like to play quite slow as well.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: So probably a low scoring game here, but it kind
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: of makes sense to take the points. I don't really
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: want to do it in this case, but that's probably
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: the way that I would look if I was gonna
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: play it. Virginia's all the way up to thirty eight
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: and a half point favor in the total, as I said,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: is low in one hundred and thirty four and a half.
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: Do you really want to lay thirty eight and a
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: half with a total of one hundred and thirty four
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: and a half, where Virginia probably doesn't care about. I mean,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: this is college basketball. We don't care about style points
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: here right now. Really, you just care about let's just
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: get in, get out, win the game by a decent margin,
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: have an easy win, and that's it. So yeah, I
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: think Virginia probably does not cover that. I'm not gonna
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: make it a play, but Maryland is so sure they're
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: bad though They're playing a third straight road game, which
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: is a little bit difficult. But again, it's one of
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: those games that all comes down to the style and
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: the motivation of the team that can just totally control
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: the game, which is Virginia. So if you think that
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: it won't all be there for them in that game,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: then it makes sense to look towards the underdog n
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: C Central at Kentucky. I would actually not look to
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: NC Central in this one, even though we did fade
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: them on Saturday NCA and t beat them up. Not
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: a good loss for NC Central. Part of that handicap
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: was that they may be looking ahead to Kentucky. But
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: the problem is, I actually think Kentucky is gonna show
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: up in this game. Kentucky's sitting at five and four
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: and they just fell out of the rankings. They're not
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: this bad. They've had a really difficult schedule, and they
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: just got absolutely embarrassed in I think they played this
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: game in Tennessee. Gonzaga just absolutely crushed them. Gonzaga was
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: coming off their own embarrassing loss out in Vegas, so
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Gonzaga I thought they would show up in that game,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: and they obliterated Kentucky. That was a terrible loss for Kentucky,
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: even though Gonzaga, I mean, they're really good. Ninety four
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: to fifty nine. You lose like that to anybody, I
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: actually think you're gonna show up in the next game,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: even though Kentucky does have to face Indiana next, which
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: you know, would worry me a little bit about laying
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: the points. But I actually think laying the points is
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: the right move here. Except the problem is this line
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: went up ten points for some inexplicable reason, from thirty
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: six to thirty six and a half to forty six
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: and a half. I don't know if maybe the thirty
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: six and a half was a typo, I'm not sure,
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: but with that disparity, like I'm not gonna lay a
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: forty six and a halfway favorite. All right, I'm just
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: not gonna do it. But I could see Kentucky being
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: really angry in that game and maybe winning by a
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: huge margin there. So those are my thoughts on that one.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: Oh and yes, Zach, I am a doctor, that is right. Yes.
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: Also yes, good morning to everybody. Saint Joe's hosting Coppin
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: State here. I don't like how this sets up for
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Saint Joe's. Saint Jose is coming up a nice win
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: over Philadelphia area rival Temple, big win for Saint Joe's there,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: and they have a big game up next in two days.
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: They have to face Syracuse, who is an acc opponent there,
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: so that's a big deal as well. When you're Saint
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: Joe's an A ten team, anytime you play one of
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: the bigger conferences, especially a historically good basketball program like Syracuse,
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: they're gonna get up for that. So I see Saint
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Joe's being in a sandwich spot here. I would look
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: towards Coppin State, but man, it is ugly. Coppon State's
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: one and seven on the road. They're really really bad.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Saint Joe's three and zero at home. My worry is
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: that Coppon State is just so bad that they still
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: might not cover here. The line is up from twenty
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: one to twenty one with juice. It was actually a
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: nineteen a little while ago. The total is not that
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: high at one hundred and forty seven. But yes, I
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: would look to take the points. But ken bum as
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: Coppon State is the second worst team in Division One,
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: just to Mississippi Valley State, who played yesterday. Mississippi Valley
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: State man their only win Mississippi Valley State, assuming that
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: they got killed by Kansas State last night. I haven't looked,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: but I assume so. But their only win is against
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: the Mississippi College for Women. And I was informed well
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: because I watched wager Talk. Steve Merrill did a video
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: talking about that game yesterday, and he brought up that
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: the Mississippi College for Women back in the eighteen hundreds
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: when they were established, their name was like something like
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: the Mississippi School for the Education of White Women. This
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: is the name of it. I'm like, oh, yeah, Like
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: that's there's no there are no racist undertotes to that,
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: Like this is ridiculous, man. Now it's just the Mississippi
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: College for women and they have a men's basketball team. Yes,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: weird stuff going on man in Mississippi, but anyway, yes,
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: I would take the points of Coppon State in this one.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: I do think it's a really bad spot for Saint Joe's.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: I was considering adding this to my card, but I
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: don't think I could do it. Man Just copp And
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: State is just too ugly, and I play some ugly underdogs,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: but that might be too ugly for me. Little Rock
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: at West Virginia this is a spot where I would
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: also fade the favorite here. West Virginia coming off a
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: pretty difficult game against Wake Forest. They lost, although it
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: wasn't that close. West Virginia was losing by double digits.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: I think down the stretch in that game they lost
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: by nine. They have to turn around and play Ohio
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: State in a few days though, So this is a
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: game that's against Little Rock, and it's sandwiched in between
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: two much bigger games. So I do consider this to
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: still be a sandwich spot. I would look to take
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: the points of Little Rock, although again you're looking at
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: a West Virginia team. It's been really good at home.
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: Seven to zero. Little Rock is really bad on the
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: road at one and six. I mean, this Little Rock
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: team is quite bad, although they have been challenged a bit.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: They face a few good teams in here, but I
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: don't think I like it enough. Although West Virginia, as
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: we know with North Texas's coach going over there now,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: West Virginia plays even slower than they already did, So
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: you're gonna be asking if you like West Virginia, you're
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: gonna be asking a very slow paced team that doesn't
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: play very good offensively either, to cover a twenty five
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: and a half point spread with a one hundred and
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: thirty total. It's one of the lowest totals on the
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: board here. Yeah, I mean that's a big ask there. Man.
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: If I was gonna play it, I would take the
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: points of Little Rock up from twenty three and a
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: half to twenty five and a half. They're very, very
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: big ass to ask a slow as hell West Virginia team.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: I think they might literally be the slowest tempo in
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: the entire country, one of the slowst I think I
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: already pointed out who the slowest was a little while ago.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: West Virginia has got to be like in the five
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: slowest teams in the country. Man, because that's just what
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: that coach does. So you're asking that style of team
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: that also doesn't score well to win by over twenty
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: five and a half. Yeah, I would take the points
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: in that one. MacNeice and Rhode Island is kind of interesting.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Rhode Island is coming off getting blown out by an
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: in state big brother, Providence, so the question is do
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: they like get emotionally up for that, will they be
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: hung over from that, or will they show up this time.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: MacNeice already took an ugly loss at Incarnate Word. McNeice
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: was a big favorite there. MacNeice is still one of
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: the best teams in the Southland, as Will Wade, even
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: though he left the program, he kind of left them
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: in good spot, a decent spot at least. MacNeice did
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: bounce back and blew out Northwestern State in the ensuing game,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: and now they have to go to the East Coast
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: to face Rhode Island, which is the first time they're
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: going this far east all season. So to me, it
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: does kind of look like a bounce back spot for
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: Rhode Island probably the way that I would look in
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: this game. Although McNeice is up from a one and
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: a half to two and a half point road favorite there,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: So the oddsmakers are telling you Macnice is actually still
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: the better team there over Rhode Island. I don't have
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: too many thoughts on that. Next up is one of
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: my best bets though, and we were going to take
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: the points of Ohio State at home. I'm actually going
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: to the bigger boys for my two plays today, which
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: has you know, had mixed results this year. I know,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: but we're up on College of Basketball by a significant margin. Man,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: it's been it's high volume for me with College of Basketball,
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: but we've been doing well, so hopefully we continued to
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: do so. I mean, I was in a hole after
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: last year and we're already well out of that, so
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: hopefully we can continue to do that. This is against
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: number thirteen Illinois at Ohio State. I got a bunch
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: of reasons for doing this Illinois. First of all, first
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: true road game for Illinois, and I always talk about how
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: the first true road game, especially this deep into the season,
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: going to like a true hostile environment. That's usually a
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: difficult situation to be in. But to make it worse
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: for Illinois, they just played a couple of huge games
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: in a row, losing to Yukon by double digits. But
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: then they beat Tennessee in Nashville, so it was like
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: a semi home game for Tennessee. Illinois went in there
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: and they beat Tennessee. That's a huge win, man. Now
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: they got this unranked Ohio State team that looks to
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: be a little bit down still, and up next they
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: do have a ranked Nebraska team in four days at home,
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: which is gonna be Illinois's conference home opener, I believe,
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: even though yes, this is their first conference game, but
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: of course this is Ohio State's conference opener, even though
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: it's not their big ten opener. But still, I think
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: this is a bad spot for Illinois for all those reasons, man,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: And beating Tennessee like that, that was a nice win.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Tennessee was a small favorite in this game. Tennessee, by
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: the way, I thought Tennessee was in a bounce back
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: spot though, so it's kind of inexplicable. Then they lost
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: that game by double digits in Illinois, Tennessee coming up
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: that real ugly loss to Syracuse. That was a win
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: for us here on the show. After losing to Kansas.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: That one was explainable. Both of those were explainable. I
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: mean both of those were wins for us on the
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: show because Tennessee was coming off beating Houston, which was massive.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Then they played Kansas really tough as well, so I
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: just thought they were gonna get caught in a sandwich.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: And that was their first true road game going to
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Syracuse difficult spot. We got the outright win with Syracuse,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: but then I expected Tennessee to kind of bounce back
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: from that and they did not. But after a win
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: like this for Illinois, I do think Illinois is the
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: fade after this. Tennessee had a really bad game too.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: If you look at this game, Tennessee actually dominated Illinois
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: in the rebound department, which does look good for US
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: fading Illinois here the fact that Illinois was minus fifteen
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: in rebounds in this game, so it's like, well, how
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: do they win this game? Well, Tennessee lost the turnover
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: battle thirteen to six. That was part of the reason
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: why I was sloppy for Tennessee. So that's something that
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Ohio State's at home, probably they're going to handle the
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: turnover department a little bit better here. Tennessee also was
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: terrible in the game, shooting thirty seven percent sometimes Tennessee
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: just goes ice cold from the field. Man. They're not
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: a good offensive team, really, and thirty percent from three
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: not horrible, But Tennessee just had a bad, bad shooting game. Man.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: So again, a bit of an outlier there for Ohio State. Yes,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: I know the record looks better than they actually are.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: They're seven to one, but their biggest opponents, they've beaten
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame by one at home. I know they lost
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: a pit on the road, but we took pitt in
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: that game because that was Ohio State's first road game.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: They lost right at the end. Ohio State had a
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: nice bounce back and beat us. Though in the second
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: straight road game, they had to go to Northwestern, and
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: I was worried about Ohio State stepping up in class,
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: but they did well. They beat Northwestern on the road.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Now they're coming back home for their Big Ten home opener.
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: I think the crowd is going to be in there
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: for that one. Man, the crowd's gonna be crazy for
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: their home opener. They get to host an Illinois team
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: that's been one of the top teams in the Big
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: Ten for the last few years. It's a big deal
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: for Ohio State. I think it's maybe not quite as
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: big for Illinois, spot sets up a lot better for
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: Ohio State here. In my opinion, that's what we're gonna do.
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: As far as the tempos, I think both teams play
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: on the slightly faster side, so it's not really gonna
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: be tempo contrast one way or the other here, So
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: I'm fine with that as well. Ken Bum's got to
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: Illinois eleventh. They is Ohio State kind of sneaky in
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: here at thirty fourth, so not that bad even though, yes,
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: Illinois is the better team all around, I'll give you that.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: But Illinois also does play a little bit slower this
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: year than they have in the last couple of seasons
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: so far at least, which is kind of interesting. But
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: we see the money looking like it's definitely agree with
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: me here. Illinois is up from three to four, but
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: sixty two percent of tickets on them, seventy percent of
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: the cash on Ohio State, so we're gonna look towards
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: Ohio State. I know it is a high total one
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: hundred and sixty one. Both teams do like to play fast,
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: I like, you know, taking points more so when it's
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: a low total. But it's all about the spot we're
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: doing it. Ohio State is the play there, and I
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: apologize for the banners going down again. Of course I
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: always forget having to put the take the timers off there.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: It is Ohio State plus the four or four and
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: a half hopefully not too much of a difference there.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: So that is that one, all right. We do have
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: Brown and Providence is interesting because Providence is coming off
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: a very satisfying win over uri Rhode Island. That's a
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: big game, I think, kind of for both teams. Even
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: though Providence I think it's kind of considered to be
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: the biggest team in Rhode Island. They beat the second
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: biggest university of Rhode Island. Now they got to play Brown,
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: who's considered to be one of the little brothers there.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: And up next Butler, which is Providence's conference opener, I believe,
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: their first big East game, So that's a big deal.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: So I think it's a sandwich spot. The Providence is
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: in here, man, They're coming off a sibling rivalry game,
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: very satisfying when they got a littler sibling here than
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: their first huge conference game. Up next Brown, I mean
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: they're not good, but they're gonna step it up for
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: a game against a Rhode Island sibling. You know, they
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: played okay at ur already only losing by ten. They
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: beat Bryant, so they've stepped it up for these in
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: state games. At least I would look to take the
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: points with Brown in this one. The money is not
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: agreeing on this one. Providence is up from sixteen and
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: a half to nineteen seventy eight percent of the cash
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: on Providence, sixty percent of tickets on Brown. I don't
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: agree with the market on that one. Total not that
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: high on forty nine and a half, I would, Yeah,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: I would prefer to take the points with Brown. It's
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: not on my car though, Brown. I mean, they're coming
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: off an easy win over a non Division one team too,
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: so that's just a game that continues your momentum. In
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: my opinion, Morgan State at De Paul is a pretty
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: weird one. Morgan State just played Longwood pretty close. Morgan
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: State's a bad team. They were a pretty substantial underdog
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: in that game against Longwood, and the fact that they
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: played them pretty close and almost pulled off the upset.
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: Now they're coming off of that and they're having to
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: go on the road. It seems like a difficult spot,
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: even though I do worry that well, De Paul's a
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: big East team, so maybe Morgan State will still get
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: up for that game. De Paul. They're coming off a
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: real ugly performance man against Arkansas Pine Bluff. DePaul must
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: have been a massive favorite in this game. Pine Bluff
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: is awful and De Paul only won that game by four,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: So I think De Paul is gonna be kind of
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: in an a removed there. They're gonna be shocked back
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: into vote. And I don't mean the Wichita State Shockers,
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: who they do have to play next, so I guess
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: I do kind of worry about that being a little
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: bit of a look ahead for DePaul there. I mean,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Wichita much bigger name here. But when you have a
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: bad game like DePaul did against the Pine Bluff and
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: you barely win as a massive favorite, I do think
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: you show up focus in the next game. So my
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: lean in this game would be to Paul. They're up
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: from twenty two to twenty three and a half, so
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: the money seems like maybe it's agree with me early
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: on in that one. I would probably lay the points
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: in that one, but again I'm staying on the sidelines
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: for that one. Penn State at Indiana. Hey, this seems
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: this sounds like a football game. Nope, it is basketball.
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: Penn State. I mean, they're pretty down right now. Man.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: I think ken Bum has them like barely cracking the
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: top one hundred right now. So Indiana is definitely the
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: better of these two teams. But people might see, oh,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: it's Big ten Penn State, they got a big name. Still,
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: they're eight and one. People are gonna look at this
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: spread and probably think it's really really big, And I
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: think the public might have a tendency to want to
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: grab the points with Penn State, so I think maybe
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: that's not the right move here. They're gonna step it
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: up for it. It is a big game, but this is
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: gonna be their first true road game since New Haven,
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: which was their only true road game so far, and
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: that's new Haven. I mean, they're not good. They're new
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: team to Division one, so this is gonna be a
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: completely different animal having to go into Indiana, where this
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: crowd has already fired up because Indiana won the Big
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: Ten in football that same day, though Indiana basketball lost
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: in the afternoon to Louisville, So I do worry about
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: Indiana coming off a big game like that, although they
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: did lose by double digits, and now back in their
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: actual home arena, maybe they will play better. They do
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: have Kentucky up next to four days. I don't know
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: if that might be any sort of look ahead though,
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: So my instinct would be to lay it with Indiana
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: on this one, but I would worry a little bit
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: because this game is surrounded by even bigger games. Although
• 32:53
  Speaker 1: this is their conference home opener, though, so you gotta
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: think they will show up for that. So I don't know.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: I slightly lean towards Indiana and this one. The money
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: seems to agree, actually, fifty seven percent of tickets eighty
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: eight percent of the cash on them, up from thirteen
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: and a half to fifteen and a half. Obviously not
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: one that makes my card, though. One that will make
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: my card is number eighteen Florida at number five Yukon.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: We're gonna lay the points in this one with Yukon
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: minus the four and a half. I know last time
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: I tried to do something like this, it didn't work.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: It looks like the money's disagreeing with me. They went
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: up from three and a half to five five and
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: a half. Now, the money the mine's coming back down
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: a little bit. I think four and a half's are
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: out there right now. The percentages are flipping all over
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: the place right now, so I don't know where the
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: market is going to land on this. This isn't until
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: nine pm Eastern. Seventy three percent of tickets seventy five
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: percent of the cash on Yukon for now. Now, this
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: is on ESPN. This game is not at Yukon. This
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: game is in Madison Square Garden. But Yukon does have
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: a huge fan base in the New York area because
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: they're pretty close to New York. So I know it's
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: not a true home game. It's not even as good
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: as a Yukon game in Hartford. But Yukon will have
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: the fan base in their favor in this game though
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: against Florida, so there is at least that. So I
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: don't know that we can consider it semi home. I
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: don't think I would quite say that, but it's not
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: quite a neutral location, let's put it that way. Florida.
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: I get that Florida's five and three and the public
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: might be off of them a little bit now, which
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: it looks like they are. The public doesn't really want
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: Florida right now, even though they are the returning champs.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: But I think the reasoning on display is good. I mean,
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: it's hopefully it is. It's in line with the way
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: that I usually reason these things out. I mean Florida,
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: I know they haven't played for like a week, but
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: that was a huge game for Florida. Man. They went
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: to Duke to Cameron Indoor and they only lost the
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: game by one point as ten and a half point underdogs.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: This is a huge game for Florida, dude. They went
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: in and they almost beat Duke, who's one of the
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: top teams in the country. Florida was losing the entire game.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: They were losing by margin, by double digits, and they
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: came all the way back and they led the game
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: in the final minute of the game and then lost
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: right at the end. That is a brutal way to
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: lose that game. And now you have to go up
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: into the cold, up into New England, or not in
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: New England, but New York in this case. I don't know, man,
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: it seems like Florida might not handle it that well. Yukon.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: I know they look like the better team. I know
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: they're the team with the better ranking right now, sitting
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: at eight and one. But I think they're gonna show up.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: And we faded Yukon in the last game because I
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: said it was a sandwich spot. They were coming off
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: big wins over Illinois Kansas. They played Texas A and M,
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: East Texas A and M. Excuse me, East Texas A
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: and M. Believe it or not covered that number. Even
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: though Yukon won eighty three to fifty nine. We got
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: any easy wire to wire cover in that one because
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: the spread was just way too big. And now Yukon
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: coming off of that that was really like a tune
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: up game at home. They're staying up in the Northeast.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: They're just going from New Haven to New York. Very
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: quick trip for Yukon. Here they played like they played earlier.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: Or sorry, that was on Saturday, I think right the
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: game against eat Sex and A and M. But Florida
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: hasn't played since the middle of the last week, I
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: believe is what the case is. But that's fine. I mean,
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: I like how this sets up for Yukon better even
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: though they have less rest. I mean, they had an
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: easy cake walk game, which I think just continues your
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: momentum through and the thing that puts this over the
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: top for me is this is tournament revenge, man, And
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: the tournament revenge spots have been good, except we lost
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: on the Wisconsin one against BYU, but we did win
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: on the or We didn't win on the one, but
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: I was correct on the one with Tennessee beat Houston.
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: I didn't play it, but Vandy got their revenge against
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: Saint Mary's as well. So I think, dude, teams remember
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: who ended their season last year. Everybody's gonna remember that
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: game because Yukon almost bounced Florida from the tournament. And yeah, Florida,
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: maybe they'll remember that as well and remember that they
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: didn't play that well and they should have won that
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: game more easily. But now the tables have flipped here
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: a little bit, man, and Yukon's actually the better team
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: right now this year, and I think Yukon's gonna want
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: the opportunity to avenge that tournament loss and beat Florida
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: this time. So I think it's a bigger deal for Yukon.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: I think they have this game circled. Florida's coming off
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: what I think is actually a bigger game for them
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: against duke. They have to play these two straight huge
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: games in a row like this, both in somewhat hostile environments.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't like it for Florida. I like
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: Connecticut in this one. Florida also wants to play fast
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: and Yukon does not. Yukon's gonna play slow, and you
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: got to think that in this environment, and with Yukon
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: being the favorite, not really at home, but in a
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: you know, more home than neutral site, Let's say, Yukon
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: should be able to control the pace. Plus it's easier
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: to slow it down. So if Yukon slows it down,
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: that's gonna frustrate Florida. That's exactly what Yukon did in
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: the tournament as well. I know a lot of these
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: guys might not really remember that because the personnel changes
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: a lot from year to year, but you know, some
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: of these guys are gonna remember that game, especially on
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: the Yukon said Yukon still has a caravan there. He
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: was involved in that game last year, So one of
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: their top players was still there, was in that game
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: last year. The coaches are the same, So yeah, we're
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: gonna go with Yukon in that one man and that
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: is my final play of the day, but you guys
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: can stick around for all the rest of the analysis.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Dartmouth and Colorado State. Colorado State's coming off a big
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: win over their rival Colorado. That was a big win.
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: It's always a big deal when those two teams play
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: each other. So just simply it could be a little
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: bit of a letdown spot here. But Dartmouth having to
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: play in high elevation, how are they gonna respond? I
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, they're already out there though. They
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: just played at Wyoming and they lost to Wyoming, and
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: I think they caught Wyoming in a spot where Wyoming
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: was in a bad spot. Though Wyoming was coming off
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: playing Texas Tech really close, so they were not in
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: a very good spot against Dartmouth. I think Dartmouth might
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: have covered that number against Wyoming, which I think I
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: gave that as a lean on the show. I give
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: it a lot of opinions. Which game is this? I
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: didn't talk about the Wyoming game, and I'm talking about
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: the Yeah, Dartmouth Colorado State. Colorado State is up to
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: a twenty point favorite here, but I would slightly lead
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: towards fading Colorado State in that one. Northern Arizona and
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: Arizona State. This is an in state big brother little
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: brother situation. Northern Arizona, you gotta think they're gonna at
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: least try to step it up for a big brother
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: like Arizona State. The problem is Northern Arizona just went
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: into North Dakota State and almost beat them. They only
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: lost by one, and North Dakota State was definitely a
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: big favorite in that game probably I would guess nine
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: to nine and a half in that game. So an
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: underdog like Northern Arizona in that game when you almost
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: pull off an upset like that, and now they have
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: to travel down from North Dakota down to Arizona, although
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: I know they're from Arizona, but still the travel is
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: kind of ridiculous coming off a game where they put
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: in a huge effort like that. It's not a good spot.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: But Arizona's States not in a good spot either, because
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: they just had a very nice win over Oklahoma and
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: they do have a hot Santa Clara team up next
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: and then Ucla. So this is kind of a sandwich
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: spot and at the very least a letdown spot for
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: Arizona State off of that big win over oh you so,
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: I don't really like either side here. The money is
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: saying Northern Arizona as Arizona State's up to seventeen with
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: juice eight and nine percent of tickets on them, but
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: sixty two percent of the cash on Northern Arizona. I mean,
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know if I disagree with that, I would
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: probably be leaning towards an over in that game, although
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: the total dropped to one point fifty eighty percent of
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: tickets ninety four percent of the cash on the over them.
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: I think with both teams in bad spots, the over
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: kind of makes sense. Arizona State is not particularly good defensively,
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: and they do play somewhat fast, so that more that
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: is more conducive to the over there. Yeah, and I
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: think that's about it. Long Beach is at San Jose State.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Long Beach just played a pretty tough game against U
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: SEE San die Go, though, though Long Beach was pretty
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: much out of that game. I think they had a
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: run really late in the game to cut it to
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: six after they were pretty much dead in the game.
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: But still they put in a big effort against UC
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: San Diego. Now they're gonna go on the road to
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: San Jose State. Not a very good spot for Long
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: Beach State. For San Jose State, they're just staying at home.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: They just beat San Diego. Spot is better for San
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: Jose State. In my opinion. They're down from eight to seven.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: Though the money is disagreeing with me on that one
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: fifty percent of tickets eighty percent of the cash on
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: Long Beach, but I would disagree. I would fade Long
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: Beach off of that game against U. See San Diego.
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: All right, we got NHL decent amount of NHL today.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: I'm actually skipping the entire board though. This is just
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: nothing that I really love here, even though they were
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: like twelve games, eleven whatever. There are Tampa Bay at Montreal.
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: Tampa Bay is on a back to back. Tampa Bay
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: played yesterday and they didn't do that well. They lost
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: two tone thing at Toronto. But I worry about teams
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: on back to backs. They're playing a third game in
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: four days, and as announced yesterday, Vasilevsky their top goaltender.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Because I thought he was gonna play yesterday, he's out.
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: He's injured, which was announced yesterday. So that seemed to
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: come from out of nowhere. I don't know what the
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: deal is with out Tampa Bay. They're without their top goalie,
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: which that was the case early last season too, I
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: think so. I think he's a little bit older. He
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: can't really stay healthy right now, so that's not good.
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: So I don't know what that means here. I don't know.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: They're gonna have to have some other goalie coming in here.
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: So they're gonna have some goalie who we don't even
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: know who it is, coming in and playing this game,
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: probably because Johnson is probably not gonna play on the
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: back to back. So I don't even know what their
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: goaltending situation is gonna look like. So all of a sudden,
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: this doesn't look very good for Tampa Bay. Man, and
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: they do have new jersey up next sough Normally I
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: would say Tampa Bay is not gonna overlook Montreal because
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Montreal's doing decent this year. Mondreal's staying at home and
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: coming off an ugly loss at home to Saint Louis.
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: I think the spot is better for Montreal in this one.
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: The money does not agree, which is strange to me.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: In Montreal down for minus one twenty five to minus
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: one eighteen seventy one percent of tickets on them seventy
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: seven percent of the cash on Tampa Bay. I can't
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: do it, man, even though I know Tampa Bay isn't
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: as bad as this recent slide that they're in, but
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: now that they don't have the vast Levski, we don't
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: even know who their goalie is gonna be here, back
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: to back, third game in four days in different cities.
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: I don't like it at all. I slightly lean to
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: Montreal in that one. I don't know what the market
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: is doing there New Jersey at Ottawa. New Jersey's coming
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: off a pretty ugly loss to my Boston Bruins now
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: a couple of days off, which I think the days
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: off are gonna help New Jersey because they're on a
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: five game losing streak, But they have not done very
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: well since Hughes went down and I assume he's still
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: not back. So not good for New Jersey right now, man,
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: But the fact that they have multiple days off I
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: think is probably helpful because when you're losing, having days
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: off can break that losing moment. I expect them to
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: show up because they're on this bad losing streak, even
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: though I think they do play Tampa next. Is what
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: I said, right. Auto is coming into this in kind
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: of the same boat. Though Ottawa's lost four or five,
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: they've lost two in a row at home, so I
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: think they're gonna show up focus too, because they don't
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: want to lose all three on the home stand. And
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: they've also been off since Saturdays, so both teams have
• 44:23
  Speaker 1: some advantageous rest here to try to break their losing momentum.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: The money's coming in towards New Jersey. Auto is up
• 44:30
  Speaker 1: for minus one thirty five to minus one thirty nine,
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: but fifty percent of tickets sixty three percent of the
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: cash on New Jersey. I don't really have a good
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: feel for this game man. As far as the side, yeah,
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I think both teams are in positive spots.
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: I mean it's a situation where maybe even an under
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: makes sense. Total is not very high at five and
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: a half, and that probably is for a reason, expecting
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: some rested defenses, some focus, and then when you get
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: the rest, it also can cool off the offense a
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: little bit too, So that makes more sense than the
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: side the money is saying New Jersey. I don't tend
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: to I don't really disagree with it. I just don't
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: really have a strong opinion on the side in that one.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: Vegas at the Islanders. Oh man, I mean, the osmakers
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: are gonna tell you right away that Vegas even though
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: the record the record is good fourteen six and eight,
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: but the Islanders pretty good as well. It's sixteen eleven
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: and three. But the oddsmakers are telling you who's the
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: better team by lining Vegas as a favorite. But they're
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: down for minus one forty to minus one thirty six.
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: Although again it almost looks, I think too tempting to
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: take the Islanders as a home underdog here, but the
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: money is saying Islanders. It's fifty percent of tickets on Vegas,
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: eighty percent of the cash on the Islanders for Vegas. Here,
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: Vegas is coming up a win over the Rangers, you know, overtime.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: But of course we talk about it all the time,
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: how the Rangers are horrible at home this year. At
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: least that's been the case so far. Vegas got that
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: dumb it. Now Vegas is just staying in New York.
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: So the trou spot is really not that bad for
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: Vegas here, and they have a little bit of momentum
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: here after a win that I don't think will make
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: them over confident or anything like that. The Islanders are
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: having to travel back from Florida in the same timespan
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: and play a third game in four days, although they
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: did just get smashed by Florida to finish that two
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: game road trip, which was a win for us on
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: the show, by the way, because I thought it was
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: kind of a Sandwich spot. I just thought there was
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: gonna be an Islander let down somewhere after they beat
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: Colorado and Tampa, which we took the loss on Tampa
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: I think in that game, and then we got the
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: win on Florida, fading the Islanders yet again. Now the
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: Islanders coming back from that. I prefer Vegas in this game, man,
• 46:38
  Speaker 1: I do. That would be my opinion, would be Vegas
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: money lined in that one, But the money seems to
• 46:42
  Speaker 1: disagree on that one too. San Jose at Philadelphia, San Jose,
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, they're a team where again their record is
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: kind of misleading, like they're not as good as their
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: record even makes them look. Philly I think is not
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: as good as their record looks either, But of course
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: Philly is a big favorite here because the odds are
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: telling you San Jose is not very good. Philly down
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: for minus one seventy five to minus one sixty seven
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: on the money line, eighty percent of tickets, eighty seven
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: percent of the cash on them. And I definitely can
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: understand the fate of San Jose here because they just
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: won on the road at Carolina. That is a monster win. Dude.
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: Carolina had to have been at least a minus two
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: hundred probably more money line favorite in that game and
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: San Jose beat them. That's pretty insane. So I think
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: they're probably in a letdown spot coming off of that.
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: For Philly, though, they're coming off playing Colorado close. Man,
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: that was a one goal game for most of the
• 47:36
  Speaker 1: third period and they lost by one goal. So Philly
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: isn't exactly in a good spot either. They do have
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: doubt excuse me, Vegas and Carolina than twice and then
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: Montreal all up after this, So I don't like the
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: spot for Philly either. It kind of looks like a
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: sandwich spot and San Jose in a letdown spot. Again,
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: it would be a spot where maybe I would look
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: over because it's a spot where both teams might not
• 47:59
  Speaker 1: be in total focus mode there, And of course I
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: think both these teams are fairly over conducive teams in general. Anyway,
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: the totals at six, I mean, they both don't have
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: stellar goaltending. Let's just put it that way. Both teams
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: seem to give up a decent amount. I mean, if
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: I was gonna play any game today, it would probably
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: be Anaheim against Pittsburgh, al though I know Anaheim on
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: the road not as good as they are at home,
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: although they're not terrible. Fucking ad block dude, I fucking
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: hate that shit that just comes around in nowhere randomly,
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: like I've had Firefox open all morning, man, Like, fuck off. Now,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: Anaheim they're starting a road trip. This really this looks
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: like last night to me, where we got the game
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: right on the La Kings, except that the Kings are
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: better on the road than Anaheim is. But Anaheim's coming
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: up a big win just like the Kings were. Well,
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: a win by a huge margin, and it was against
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: the same team too, Chicago, so anaeim's and by the
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: same margin. Wow, this does remind me yesterday Anaheim beat
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: Chicago seven to one. Now they're starting a road trip,
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: and I don't think they're gonna be overconfident or anything
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: like that, you know, I just think they're gonna be
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: in a good spot to start the road trip off
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: on the right foot. So just like I said yesterday,
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: it is so similar it's crazy. Although they are having
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: to fly across the country for this, which was not
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: the case yesterday. But Pittsburgh's returning over from a road
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: trip where they went to Philly, no big deal there,
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: to Tampa. They stayed in the Eastern Times on there,
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: but they did go to Dallas. They've been on the
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: road for more than a week, even though it was
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: only three games during the road trip. I always talk
• 49:35
  Speaker 1: about it, just like yesterday, and when a team returns
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: home from a road trip, they can be a little
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: bit distracted. Man, when they get back from that road trip,
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: it can, you know, throw them off a little bit.
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: They have to get back to home life, and it
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: might be worse because Pittsburgh just had a big game
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: against Dallas to finish the road trip on Sunday. They
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: took Dallas to a shootout, man and Pittsburgh was definitely
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: a big road underdog there and almost were able to
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: win the game. That would have been a huge win.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: Now now they're back at home. They do have Montreal
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: up next and maybe that game means a little bit
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: more Anah, I'm not bad on the road though, seven
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: six and one Pittsburgh sixty four and two at home,
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: So pretty comparable records there. Pittsburgh is actually not that
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: great at home, you know what. I'm tempted to actually
• 50:14
  Speaker 1: add this as a play on the fly here. It's
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: just not the fly Ers. It's just so similar to
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: last night, last night's game. Dude, that and I think
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: Pittsburgh is not as good as their record looks. Pittsburgh
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: is up for minus one to fifteen to minus one
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: twenty two. But the money looks like it's on Anaheim
• 50:31
  Speaker 1: fifty six percent to take a sixty six percent of
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: the cash on them, you know what, let's add it whatever.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: I'm a glutton for punishment, man, Hopefully we get this one, right.
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: Let me look, let me see what the number is
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: that we can get on this. We're definitely gonna get
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: them as an underdog here. Yeah, plus one ten decent
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: price there. All right, we'll add it. We'll add Anaheim
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: on the fly there. That was already gonna be my
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: strongest lean, but I'll just elevate it to a play.
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: Let's have some fun, hopefully, it's fun. Hopefully we get
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: it right, all right. So, I mean it's so similar
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: to last night, dude, It's like, why would I play
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: last night but not this one, you know what I mean?
• 51:09
  Speaker 1: So there it is Anaheim plus one to ten on
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: the money line. Good price on that one too, Just
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: like last night. You get them as a small dog.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: So there you go. Okay, Columbus at Carolina. You know,
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: Carolina's gonna be in a big They're gonna be a
• 51:25
  Speaker 1: big favorite here and they're probably gonna be in a
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: foul mood after that ugly home loss to San Jose,
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: so I would not really want to fade Carolina in
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: this spot for Columbus. Columbus is I mean, they're gonna
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: show up for a game against Carolina, but they're on
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: this run where they are playing a third game in
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: four days, all in different cities, fourth game in six days, actually,
• 51:47
  Speaker 1: all in different cities, starting at home with a shootout
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: went over in Detroit. They went on the road, took
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: Florida to overtime, then they lost two nothing to Washington
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: the next night. It's a difficult spot, man, with Carolina
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: being the better team and in bound back mode, even
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: though Columbus is looking for a win at just by
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: any means on the road trip, the spot to me
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: looks better for Carolina. Yeah, they're playing a third game
• 52:08
  Speaker 1: in four days as well, fourth game in six days
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: as well, but all of those have been at home,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: so it's a lot easier when you're not having to travel.
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: Carolina's down for minus two twenty to minus two hundred,
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: but I think they're the only way to look at
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: that game with the total being fairly high at six
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: and a half, maybe a Columbus excuse me, a Carolina
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: puck line kind of makes sense there. My Boston Bruins
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: are at Saint Louis, so this is debatably a zigzag
• 52:33
  Speaker 1: spot because we know the Bruins just beat Saint Louis
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: and I lost on that when that was a loss
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: here on the show, im, I'll let you know my
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: wins and losses. Man. Plus they're all out there, it's
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: all tracked on this channel. My Bruins, I thought they
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: were in a bad spot they lost to Saint Louis anyway.
• 52:49
  Speaker 1: I thought they were sandwiched in between Detroit and New Jersey.
• 52:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't like it. But the Bruins beat Saint Louis
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: five to two. It was misleading though. If you look
• 52:57
  Speaker 1: at the stats in this game, Saint Louis outshot the
• 53:01
  Speaker 1: Bruins by twelve, they out faced off them, they out
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: hit them by twelve as well. So Saint Louis won
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: all of the major stats in that game. And then
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: the Bruins followed that up with a big win over
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: New Jersey four to one. Now, yes, the Bruins are
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: starting a road trip, and I do talk about how
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: starting a road trip you do tend to be focused,
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: and the Bruins do have two days off, but I
• 53:22
  Speaker 1: don't know the days off are necessarily gonna help them
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: coming off a big win. I don't know how focus
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: they're gonna be on a Saint Louis team. They just
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: beat you know what I mean. So normally, yeah, it's
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: a focused spot to start the road trip. But here
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: I think Saint Louis might have the adjustments to make
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: here man, and be a little bit angry off of that.
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: But the problem with Saint Louis is they're returning home
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: from a road trip. So I just don't think I
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: can get involved here, man. They've been away since Thursday.
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: It was a short ish road trip where they started
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: it off in Boston, then they won at Ottawa and Montreal.
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: Now this for them is a third game in four days,
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: a fourth game in six days, all in different cities.
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: Plus it's a return home spot. They have to go
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: back out on the road to Nashville on Thursday. So
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: I talk about this when you have that single game
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: back home, that can kind of even add to the
• 54:08
  Speaker 1: distractions because you got stuff to do when you're back
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: at home, man, and then you got to go back
• 54:12
  Speaker 1: out on the road again. So that it is a
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: tough spot for Saint Louis, even though I don't think
• 54:16
  Speaker 1: they're gonna overlook a team that just embarrassed them. But
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: I can't do it in that spot. I would still
• 54:22
  Speaker 1: probably slightly lean towards Saint Louis, but in that particular spot,
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: I can't really do it. Bruins have eighty percent of
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: the tickets on them, Saint Louis down for minus one
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: forty five to minus one forty three on the money line,
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: but sixty nine percent of the cash on Saint Louis.
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: The line is also really interesting, just like I said, like,
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: why was Saint Louis a favorite on the road in Boston, right,
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: the osvegers are telling you Saint Louis is the better team,
• 54:45
  Speaker 1: and here they're telling you that too because they're getting
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: more than home ice hero though Saint Louis was like
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: minus one thirty I think at Boston, so they should
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: probably be about minus one fifty in this game if
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: given that, so, I think they're actually getting a little
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: bit of lo I have value here too. And again
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: the fact that Bruins have a positive record Saint Louis
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: has a negative record, It's like, well, why is Saint
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: Louis a favored again here? So, just like I said
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: with that other game, the oddsbregers are telling you something
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: with that, all right, Dallas at Winnipeg, I think I
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: forgot to handicap this game when I went through all
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: the games earlers, So we'll do it right now. Dallas
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: is coming up beating Pittsburgh in overtime now starting a
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: road trip. I think it's a positive spot for them
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: because they're going to start the road trip with some
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: momentum there going into Winnipeg. Winnipeg, I think they're in
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: a decent spot as well, though, I mean they've had
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: multiple days off to recover from losing real ugly to
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: Edmonton six to two. Although with Winnipeg, of course, there's
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: still without Hella Buck. I don't know if and when
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: he's coming back. He's on the injured reserve. I don't
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: know if and when he's ever coming back. Man who knows.
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: So that's bad because he's a great goaltender. Now Winnipeg,
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: I do think they're in a more positive spot here though,
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: even though they had a big game against Edmonton, just
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: an ugly loss, multiple days off back at home, They're
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: gonna show up for a game against Dallas. I think
• 56:04
  Speaker 1: there's no question about that. Dallas up for minus one
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: thirty to minus one thirty five, with eighty four percent
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: of tickets and cash on them, Dallas is gonna be
• 56:12
  Speaker 1: the public side. Nobody's gonna want any part of Winnipeg,
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: so getting Winnipeg is a home underdog. I mean, I
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: wouldn't really disagree with that side, just based on the
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: fact that I think maybe there's a little bit of
• 56:23
  Speaker 1: line value in it. But I don't love that game
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: at all. Buffalo is that Edmonton Buffalo. They're in the
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: middle of a road trip here, they're on a back
• 56:33
  Speaker 1: to back though they're the other team that's playing on
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: a back to back today. They played in Calgary last night,
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: so they're staying in Alberta. They lost seven to four,
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: just brutal ugly loss. They've lost every game on the
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: road trip by three goals, so they're probably gonna try
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: to show up and win this game, but it's gonna
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: be difficult on a back to back. Man, that's just
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: the way that it is, having to play two games
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: and two nights. Edmonton, I mean, you could argue they're
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: kind of in a letdown spot of beating Winnipeg though
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: they're staying at home with multiple days off, although they
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: might pay more attention to Detroit, Toronto, Montreal, who're all
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: coming up after Buffalo. Like, I don't expect full focus
• 57:11
  Speaker 1: out of Edmonton in this one, so I expect more
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: focus out of Buffalo. The problem is the rest spot
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: is really bad. So what do you do with a
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: game like this? I don't know. Edmonton ze for minus
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: two twenty to minus two ten and over probably makes
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: some sense here with Buffalo just playing in all these
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: high scoring games anyway, and so does Edmonton. Like, both
• 57:31
  Speaker 1: teams leave a lot to be desired on the defensive
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: and the goaltend. Again, the total is flipped up to
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: a six and a half, a juice six and a
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: half juice to the over. For a reason, over makes
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: sense to me in this one, Edmonton Denver mintus two
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: twenty to minus two ten on the money line. So
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: you get an Edmonton team that just might not care
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: that much against a Buffalo to play, you know, defense
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: that it's maximum intensity, and then Buffalo might be tired.
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: So yeah, to me, it seems like kind of an over.
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: And then we have Colorado at Nashville. I mean, Colorado,
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: they've been excellent. We know they're gonna be a big
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: favorite here, coming off a close call against Philadelphia, but
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: another win, and this is gonna be a third road
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: game in four days, a fourth road game in the
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: last six days, and it's all in different cities, and
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: it's a fifth game in eight days, all in different cities,
• 58:21
  Speaker 1: starting with a home game back on last Tuesday. So
• 58:24
  Speaker 1: it's a lot of travel for Colorado and they do
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: face the returning champs Florida next, so I guess it's
• 58:29
  Speaker 1: possible it is a spot where maybe they don't play
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: at their best. Nashville coming back home from a quick
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: trip where they're only gone on two Thursday and Saturday.
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: They beat Florida in overtime and then got killed like
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: Carolina coming back home from that. I don't really consider
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: that to be like a true road trip return spot
• 58:49
  Speaker 1: multiple days off though, which can kind of get them
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: settled back in at home though, and make it worse actually,
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: But I don't think they're gonna overlook Colorado, man, and
• 58:57
  Speaker 1: Colorado did just beat them in this same place at
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: Nashville back on November twenty second, three to nothing, so
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: Colorado might overlook them for that reason too. I would
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: lean towards Nashville in this one. Colorado is a huge
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: public side here, a huge favorite and very public ninety
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: five percent of the tickets, ninety two percent of the
• 59:15
  Speaker 1: cash down for minus two twenty to minus two fifteen. Yeah,
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: I could see grabbing Nashville on the puck line in
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: that one. I mean, a home team getting it one
• 59:23
  Speaker 1: one and a half goals at a decent price seems
• 59:26
  Speaker 1: fairly tempting actually to me, and probably not that tempting
• 59:31
  Speaker 1: to the recreational betters. And then we'll finish it off
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: with NBA. We don't have any football until the Thursday night,
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: an NFL game will be the next football game, and
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: then there's a bowl on Saturday, which I might have
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: a play in that one. I'm not sure yet, but
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: the lines are moving a bit on the bowls, so
• 59:49
  Speaker 1: I did already give my opinion that on that bowl,
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: so you probably know what the play would be. Sob
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: what's up? Man? What is that? Coka? Like? Like shit? Like,
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: what are we talking about? Basketball? T Rex? Oh, you're
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 1: on the raptors. I guess is what you mean. I
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: don't have a play in either of these games. Miami
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: is at Orlando. I haven't opinion in both games, at
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: least Miami. They're coming off a horrendous loss at home, dude,
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: to Sacramento, and that was a win for us on
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: the show with the Kings. The Kings beat them outright
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: one twenty seven to one eleven. Again, I thought it
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: was a bad spot because Miami was coming off a
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: tough game against Orlando on the road and now they're
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 1: having to go back to Orlando again here but with
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: multiple days off, now coming off an ugly loss in
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 1: a bad spot, Magic Sandwich, Like I said, I think
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: Miami does bounce back in this one, and they want
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: to go back and try to zigzag this and actually
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 1: beat Orlando this time because they didn't play well in
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 1: that prior game. Meanwhile, Orlando, they in the meantime had
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 1: to go up to New York and they played pretty
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: close against the Knicks, huge game for them, only losing
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: by six. And now they have to come back play
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: this Miami team they just beat. Although it is a
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: big game for both teams, but then Orlando has a
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 1: huge break before they play Denver after that. So I
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: don't really think a look ahead is really an issue here.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 1: But the spot to me sets up better for Miami. Man,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: they're the team that can make all right, excuse me, Yeah,
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: it sets up better for Miami. They're they're the team
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 1: can make the adjust that can make the adjustments off
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: of that loss. Orlando having to go to New York
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: and playing a close game is a big underdog, is
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 1: a difficult that puts them in a difficult spot here,
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: potentially a hangover spot. Where is Miami. They're gonna be
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: really angry after that loss at home going back out
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 1: on the road. I think they're gonna be focused. So yeah,
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 1: I like Miami in this game. That might be my
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 1: better opinion out of these two. Magic can flip from
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 1: one point dodge or one point favorite. I would take
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: it with the heat sixty two percent of tickets eighty
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: nine percent of the cash. On Miami, I agree with
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: Miami in this one. I don't remember what the line
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 1: wasn't that other game though, Y has taken all that
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 1: stuff down, so I don't know now. I would like
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 1: this more if the if the Miami Orlando game was
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: on a one point game, I would like this even more.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: To zig Zaga, but I still like it. And then
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 1: the Knicks at Toronto, I agree with Sob in this one.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: I agree with Toronto here the Knicks. They're on a
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: nice run. They're coming up a nice win over Orlando,
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: but starting a road trip. I do think you generally
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: are focused when you start a road trip, although I
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 1: guess it's only well, it's really only a single game
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 1: on the road here because the next road game is
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: not until the eighteenth. So there's a break here, which
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 1: I don't even know if it's for the NBA Cup
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 1: or what the hell it is. But the Knicks are
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: coming up that win over Orlando. It's a satisfying win.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: They're going up to Toronto. They did just beat Toronto
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 1: at home on November thirtieth by a lot one hundred
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: and sixteen to ninety four. So Toronto is gonna be
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: the team that has the adjustments to make here as
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 1: far as concerned. They're coming off losing to Boston. But
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: this worries me a little bit, man, because I do
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: still think the Knicks will show up for a game
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: against Toronto, and because the Knicks just played as a
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: favorite and they didn't really play that well against Orlando,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: and Toronto made a furious comeback in this game against Boston.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 1: That was a big game. We lost. On that game,
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 1: I thought Toronto was in a good spot to cover
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 1: because the Celtics were off that game against the Lakers.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: Celtics anytime they smashed the Lakers, I thought the Celtics
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: would be in a letdown spot there, man. But the
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 1: Celtics had a massive lead in this game. But because
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: Toronto put in a massive effort to try to come
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: back in that game and still fell short, I don't
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: love it as much. Man. I'll agree and lean towards Toronto,
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 1: but I think the heat or the better NBA played
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 1: today seventy four percent of tickets on the Knicks seventy
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 1: one percent of the cash on the Raptors. The money
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 1: does agree, Knicks up from three and a half to
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 1: four and a half. Here. Yeah, I mean I would
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: agree with taking the points of the Raptors, although I
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: do think they're not really as good as the record looks,
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: which is kind of the other thing here, Like people
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: are gonna look at the records, you know, Oh, the
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: records aren't really that much different, and it almost seems
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: a tempting to take the points with the Toronto there.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: So I agree with it, But again I think Miami
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: is the better the better play there, which do I
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 1: want to add another play? I mean, I'm tempted to
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 1: do it. I'm always like, I gotta have my best
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: play in every sport, man. I mean, I like it
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: for Miami. I'm thinking about it. I mean, Orlando had
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: to go up to the Knicks. How close were they
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: to beating the Knicks in that game? Let me see, Uh,
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 1: let's look at the game flow. They weren't that close.
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 1: They got back to within six in the final minute.
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: They were losing by ten with like a minute ago. Basically, yeah,
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: I'll stay away. I'll stay off of that one. But
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: I do like I do like the heat in that game.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 1: All right, that's gonna do it, man. Once again. The
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 1: plays today college basketball, we're on Ohio State plus the points,
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 1: Yukon minus the points. And then in hockey we're gonna
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: be on the end on hind Ducks money line. That's
• 1:05:11

• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: it was an Aaron Osky movie. It's more of a
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 1: kind of It's like a dark comedy, like crime caper,
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know, somewhat pulp fiction ish, not pulp fictionist,
• 1:07:45
  Speaker 1: but like a nineties pulp crime movie kind of. I
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: liked it. I thought it was kind of good. I
