Transcript
- 0:02Welcome everybody, it is week 7 in college football.
- 0:06We are almost at the halfway point of the regular season.
- 0:10Thank you for joining us on the Targeting winners college
- 0:12football betting podcast. My name is Darren, I am joined
- 0:15as always by my Co host Tim. How we doing today?
- 0:20Goodman, how you doing? Living the dream, brother.
- 0:23Living the dream. And again of.
- 0:26Course in this dream I don't work, but that's irrelevant.
- 0:28And also joined by Pete. Pete, how we doing today?
- 0:31How the hell are we in week 7 already?
- 0:33Does that seem insane to me? I mean, it's going by so quick.
- 0:37It's a bad part about football. Guys, go by quickly.
- 0:39Yeah, wow. I mean, it's, yeah, that's
- 0:41heading toward mid-october. It's it's crazy.
- 0:43Whatever. That's cool.
- 0:44So good to be here. Excited to maybe make a few
- 0:47winning bets this week. That's my goal.
- 0:50Maybe one or two would be nice. Anyway, good to be here.
- 0:52You go. All right, so guys, Week 6 has
- 0:56come and gone. Not as many marquee matchups as
- 0:58as Week 5 gave us, but still some interesting games.
- 1:01Tim, we'll start with you if you want to recap your week and any
- 1:05thoughts, good, positive, bad, negative or indifferent.
- 1:09What was the windows in Week 6? Give a quick year.
- 1:12Welcome to the fans of UCLAI. Think I just made them both
- 1:15eligible by promising to fade them.
- 1:18So yeah, they promptly go out and actually start covering.
- 1:20And then they beat, what, number 5 in the country last week?
- 1:24So I'm going to stop fading them.
- 1:26I actually looked at some of the highlights from the first couple
- 1:29of weeks and it's a different team.
- 1:31They are actually playing harder for this new coach.
- 1:35My God, the offensive coordinator looks 12.
- 1:39Rick Neuheisel's kid. Yeah, yes, I knew that as soon
- 1:43as I saw him. I was like, that's God, I reckon
- 1:45Heissel's kid. That has to be or else, you
- 1:48know, so. But yeah, so that was, you know,
- 1:52it's fun to see, you know, get a team that, you know, prefer, you
- 1:54know, everyone thinks sucks and they pull out a big win.
- 1:56They carry the offensive coordinator off the field.
- 1:59And he says he the biggest problem is he kept forgetting to
- 2:02put the microphone in front of his face when he's calling plays
- 2:04because he's never done that before.
- 2:05So that was pretty neat to see. I love it.
- 2:08So Miami game went pretty much as much as I thought it was.
- 2:11So you know, other than that disaster.
- 2:19So but hopefully they get right this week against Pittsburgh.
- 2:22I don't know if you have any thoughts there or what are you
- 2:24doing. You know, the Penn State game
- 2:27was, was was shocking to say the least.
- 2:30I hear, you know, you faded UCLA or faded UCLA twice in a row.
- 2:33I heard they're sending you like an honorary master's degree or
- 2:36something. I mean.
- 2:37That you're yes, yes. They're probably your biggest
- 2:40supporter, so yeah, I mean, congratulations on that
- 2:43doctorate degree or whatever they're sending you.
- 2:45I'll. Close my Venmo.
- 2:47If they want me to keep paying them, they can send me some
- 2:49money. That's the least they can do.
- 2:52Nil. You should get a part of that, I
- 2:53think. Yeah.
- 2:55I mean, I put the YouTube multi view to the test for probably a
- 2:58good saw at 11-12 hours. The Penn State game, obviously
- 3:03the biggest shocker of the week. Nothing really stunned me too
- 3:11much other than that, other than the fact that I actually finally
- 3:14won some games. So yeah, now I know what Pete
- 3:16feels like when he actually has a winning week.
- 3:18So, you know, gave out three, two unit plays, they all hit and
- 3:22we're never doing that again because the gambling gods are
- 3:25ready to have me go down like a $10 hooker.
- 3:28So we're not we're not pushing luck anymore.
- 3:32Back to some normal 1 unit goodness.
- 3:34But yeah, I mean, I said a lot of the games weren't great.
- 3:39Some of them were. I think outside of the Penn
- 3:41State game, everything kind of went according to plan.
- 3:44I can't remember. Was there anything really
- 3:46ridiculous that kind of took a? No, not really.
- 3:50When? You think of ridiculous from
- 3:51last week? Yeah, I think of Penn State, so.
- 3:53Yeah, so without further ado, our our Big 10 fan, Pete, I, I
- 3:59know in the text you've been waiting for this time.
- 4:04I, I didn't bring any snacks. Tim I, I don't know if you've
- 4:07got like a book to read or something, but.
- 4:11Pete. The floor is yours man.
- 4:14Your thoughts from from week 6? Yeah, I'll keep it relatively
- 4:19short. I mean, a couple things.
- 4:20I mean, first of all, the Seminoles never got off the bus.
- 4:22That was very, very I, I do find that unexpected.
- 4:26I mean, I know Tim, you bast your own team before that and
- 4:30all that. I I expected them to show up and
- 4:33do something. And that was, that was ugly.
- 4:35That was really, really ugly. So anyway, that was bad.
- 4:38But I'm trying to figure out who had a worst week, me or James
- 4:41Franklin, right. My my picks were abhorrent.
- 4:46And I'm, I'm a little frustrated with that, but I'm not being
- 4:50paid to make them. And, yeah, all that good stuff,
- 4:53you know? So James Franklin, obviously
- 4:55I've spent years now bashing this man because he does have
- 5:00the just amazing ability to step in his own shit without
- 5:07provocation at times when it's just illogical.
- 5:12Yeah. OK, so they lost the week before
- 5:14buying that. That wasn't the end of the
- 5:17world, right? Not a great game, but not the
- 5:19end of the world. Those games you'll lose.
- 5:21Fine. OK, But to, to, to go to UCLA
- 5:24against a team that I want to use the word inept, but inept
- 5:30might be way too strong for them.
- 5:32This team stinks. I mean, they're in a obviously
- 5:34in a they're obviously in transition here, right?
- 5:38As Tim just said, they're their coordinator.
- 5:39Looks like he's 12. He might be 12.
- 5:42I mean, you've got a team that's just trying to get through the
- 5:44year, you know, and you show up with a team that's just not
- 5:51prepared. That team was not ready to play
- 5:54that game at all. And if I hear one more person
- 5:59talk about Drew Aller being anything in terms of a potential
- 6:03NFL quarterback or God forbid, the Heisman, you've got to be
- 6:07drinking some hard stuff. He is not good.
- 6:09He was not good last year. He is not good now.
- 6:12He has never had any ability to carry that team.
- 6:14But you know, I did try to be nice to James Franklin in the
- 6:18play offs last year 'cause I thought his team played for him
- 6:21and I actually thought he did a decent job coaching.
- 6:23I take it all back. Whatever the hell that was last
- 6:26week was just freaking abysmal. That was the worst coaching job
- 6:31I've seen in I don't know how long.
- 6:33Like just to not have your team ready at all to play a pitifully
- 6:38terrible team with. I think there were 12 fans in
- 6:40the stadium. I don't know, I watched like
- 6:42half of that game. There was nobody there.
- 6:45Like what? What the hell is wrong with you?
- 6:48And then to make it worse, right, so you can suck, which he
- 6:52does on a regular basis. I've said before, excellent
- 6:55recruiter, terrible coach. Hire him as an AD or something,
- 7:00I don't know. But he's not a coach.
- 7:02But to make it even worse, the shit he did after the game,
- 7:06right? His social media crap and
- 7:08talking about the next game and it's just just tone deaf.
- 7:14So honestly, I mean, it's Penn State.
- 7:16The guy can recruit. He's got them in the national
- 7:19spot, likely like he has for for a number of years now.
- 7:22They're not going to he's in a hot seat, but they're not going
- 7:24to fire the guy. Who the hell are you going to
- 7:25get right? They're not going to fire the
- 7:27guy. But I mean, honestly, if he was
- 7:29at a place where they were a little more ruthless, he would
- 7:32be gone. And he should be gone because
- 7:35the the clown suit that he's wearing on the screen right now
- 7:38is what he should be wearing that that was just absolutely
- 7:42ridiculous. He sounds like he has no
- 7:43confidence in his team whatsoever.
- 7:46And if he's outwardly saying acting that way, what the hell
- 7:48does his team think in the locker room about that?
- 7:51So I think his team has given up on him.
- 7:53I didn't get this is going to be a long year.
- 7:55This team is overrated and and it's just a it's a disaster.
- 7:59So I don't know where this goes in the future.
- 8:02I think he should be fired probably, but it ain't going to
- 8:05happen. I don't know who they get so but
- 8:08it just it's everything I've talked about with this guy for
- 8:11years, right? You cannot lose a game that OK,
- 8:14maybe you could lose and it's fine because it's a good
- 8:16competition and go and shit the bed the next week against a
- 8:19crappy team. You just can't do that.
- 8:22So anyway, that's my James Franklin bash.
- 8:25Without getting personal, I just think it's once again I'm trying
- 8:28to debate who was worse last week, him or me.
- 8:31My picks picks were terrible. So I I pick myself.
- 8:34Anyway. Moving on.
- 8:36Well, you know what they could get, you know, they they could
- 8:39get the coach, you know, targeting winner's favorite Biff
- 8:41Poggi. He's on the Michigan payroll.
- 8:45I thought that he can't. He can't take him away.
- 8:48They need him. He doesn't need the pile on,
- 8:51pile on Pete. I think Franklin had a better
- 8:53week because you're not paying a defensive coordinator a couple
- 8:561,000,000 bucks to to fail to stop to fail to stop Nico.
- 9:02UCLA in that offense, which isn't one.
- 9:05Yeah, that's great. I'm pretty sure we could have
- 9:07hit the field and maybe slowed him down.
- 9:08I I don't know what that was. Yeah.
- 9:10Like Tim said, he looks like he's 12, he didn't even know how
- 9:12to operate his headset, and he just beat your $2,000,000
- 9:15defensive coordinator. Unbelievable.
- 9:17Yeah, yeah. Unbelievable.
- 9:19Probably the shocker of the year so far.
- 9:21Possibly for the entire year. Yeah.
- 9:24Tim, do you need like a deep breath or some oxygen or
- 9:27anything like that? I think you should give him some
- 9:28applause. I mean, he he's been waiting for
- 9:30that for, for. There you go.
- 9:35That. Before we get into tonight
- 9:38anybody, I mean not that Tim you were like a top that, but we got
- 9:42anything else or shall we get right into?
- 9:44No, Maybe. Let's jump right into it.
- 9:46All right, let's go over some of the games that we that we're
- 9:49that we don't have actual bets on here for Thursday.
- 9:52So the first one we got Louisiana Tech laying sticks at
- 9:54Kennis Floss State. Anybody have any thoughts on
- 9:56that at all? No thoughts.
- 10:00Out of that one, no. Kind of like Wayne's on that
- 10:03one. Suck next.
- 10:04One, well, no. Well, it's Conference USA.
- 10:07I'll just say this. I, I have no idea who's starting
- 10:09at Louisiana Tech for quarterback and good job
- 10:12Kennesaw State. You, you've got three wins and I
- 10:15don't know what the total is on this, but couple pretty good
- 10:17defensive clubs, believe it or not.
- 10:19So I guess if I if, if you need to play this game, I would
- 10:21probably lean under. But yeah, I don't know, Pete, if
- 10:24you've got that total up there in front of you, but around
- 10:294546, I would guess. I thought it was 45 1/2.
- 10:32I could be wrong, but it was it was in that ballpark, yeah.
- 10:35Yeah, maybe leaning under there if you if you need to play it an
- 10:39actual good game. And Tim, this one is should be
- 10:42of interest to you. You're East Carolina, you're
- 10:44picked to win the American Conference this year.
- 10:47Yes, they're playing tonight as a matter of fact, getting 6 1/2
- 10:49at Tulane. Do you have any thoughts back in
- 10:53your Pirates? Let's go Pirates.
- 10:56It's going to be, you know, you know, take the home team on on a
- 10:59weekday is usually the rule of thumb here.
- 11:01So but 06 and that opened up at 7:00.
- 11:07So they've been taking some some action there.
- 11:11So yeah, you can get 7. Why not take it?
- 11:15You can get. Seven, I think I would even take
- 11:16the 6 1/2 if you had to. I mean, one one thing we know
- 11:19about Tulane, they always seem to be good.
- 11:21Remember last year they had the whole AAC, what what it was
- 11:25called last year, championship in front of them.
- 11:26They had a trip to the playoff in front of them and then they
- 11:29crapped the bed against Memphis and Army and back-to-back weeks
- 11:32and that took care of that. So I don't know if this is the
- 11:34game where they crap it again, but like Tim said, 7th
- 11:38preferable. But I'm not against taking 6 1/2
- 11:40here with the Pirates. They've been good at home.
- 11:42I mean, Tulane's been good at home.
- 11:43So I, I don't know. I mean, I, I think I, if I had
- 11:45to glean anywhere, I I didn't play this game, but I would
- 11:47probably take Tulane and lay the points probably just because two
- 11:51lane's been pretty solid at home.
- 11:52So I would just lean into that. But I don't really have a bat
- 11:54here. I didn't look too deeply into
- 11:56it. And third game of the night,
- 11:58Jacksonville State on the road at Sam Hewson State.
- 12:00They are laying 7 to the Bearcats.
- 12:05I have 0 interest in this game at all.
- 12:07The Sam Hewson's offense is never going to start doing
- 12:09anything. It's got to be today.
- 12:11Yeah. This would be it, yeah.
- 12:13I don't think they're going to. Get I don't I, I can't trust any
- 12:16of these teams. I mean, if you're heading out
- 12:18the butt cheeks, the bronze butt cheeks, this would be it.
- 12:21I mean, Sam Houston, if. We want to talk to if you want
- 12:25to know where the bronze butt cheek award is going to this
- 12:27week, that's UTEP last night 'cause they they still just
- 12:30another fine defensive performance wasted by a coach
- 12:33who has no idea what quarterback he wants to use.
- 12:36Nope, comes out his press conference says I'm starting
- 12:38Malagai Nelson starts the other guy.
- 12:40He stinks. But in Malagai Nelson he
- 12:42continues to stink. It's like somebody on Twitter is
- 12:46like fire the fire the offensive coordinator, what is he doing?
- 12:49And then somebody who actually follows UTEP football says,
- 12:52dude, the head coach calls the plays.
- 12:54So apparently he needs to go. But if you're a member of the
- 12:57throng of people that is UTEP Twitter, you are not happy.
- 13:01All right, Timmy, let's get let's get the graphic up for the
- 13:04one game we are giving a play out on here.
- 13:09There we go. Southern Miss.
- 13:12Yeah, I got a terrible number here.
- 13:13I am actually laying 3 here with Southern Miss tonight.
- 13:18A couple weeks ago, I in the same week bet on Boston College
- 13:22and Air Force teams with two awful defenses.
- 13:24I promise never to do that again.
- 13:27Georgia Southern is pretty much near the bottom in a plethora of
- 13:31defensive categories. Southern Miss.
- 13:34You may know them as Marshall 2 point O.
- 13:37They have Charles Huff and half of last year's team for them
- 13:40now. I don't know.
- 13:44I mean, Braylon Braxton's playing playing pretty well.
- 13:47Mt DS3 picks completing almost 2/3 of his passes and they've
- 13:50got some depth of the skill positions.
- 13:52They've already got 4 running backs with at least 27 carries,
- 13:546 receivers with at least 10 catches.
- 13:58Little bit of concern with their past defense.
- 14:00Not sure if JC French and his squad of Eagles is going to be
- 14:04able to do anything about that. Plus Southern Miss defense is
- 14:07actually playing really well. 15 sacks.
- 14:09They leave the conference with eight picks.
- 14:11So I think if Southern Mist can get maybe get a handful of stops
- 14:15here, I think they should be able to have no trouble moving
- 14:18the ball up and down South. I'm gonna lay the three with
- 14:22Southern Miss. And you know, we'll just hope
- 14:24for the best, guys. Any thoughts?
- 14:28Yeah, I mean, over under is 59 1/2, which I think is a pretty,
- 14:31pretty big number. And to your point, I think
- 14:33Southern, I was leaning slightly over, but Southern misses
- 14:37defense has been playing pretty well, right.
- 14:39So that was my caveat there. It was like my initial thought
- 14:41was over. But I do think that, you know,
- 14:44it is possible that Southern Miss defense could could slow
- 14:46down towards the Southern. So maybe that's not such a good
- 14:49play. So I stayed away from it.
- 14:50I said initial thought over, but I I don't think I would bet
- 14:53this. I think it could go either way
- 14:54on that line. So it's it's a little off, but I
- 14:56do I do like your bet. Jimmy, any thoughts?
- 15:00Well over 59 1/2 if you're looking at the graphic on the
- 15:04screen. If at the first game Southern
- 15:07Miss 170 to nothing, they would have covered that by themselves.
- 15:09So. I'll take that tonight, by the
- 15:11way. Yeah, if you bet on this game
- 15:17from 1941 and you happen to be listening, we love to hear from
- 15:20you and hear about this game, you know, and and Pearl Harbor
- 15:23and Watergate and all that. So give us a shout.
- 15:27But the yeah, 2 and all. It's the first meeting since
- 15:30what, 1990 I think is that and put that up there, but just
- 15:36thought it was funny. 70 to nothing, the good old days.
- 15:40So at least teams score now. At least you get like 70 to 3
- 15:43now. It's like, you know, it's rare
- 15:44that you actually get this shut out because there's enough crap
- 15:47going on that there's always like these backdoor scores and
- 15:50all that. But yeah, Southern myths, I had
- 15:55them to win that, win that conference.
- 15:57So that's right. You.
- 15:59Do All right, so that's it for Thursday.
- 16:01Moving on to Friday. We got a couple games here.
- 16:03We'll take a quick look at South Florida getting 1 1/2 at North
- 16:08Texas having quite the year, which we kind of figured when
- 16:11Sam Houston's defense coordinator came over and
- 16:14brought like 5 or 6 of his his Sam Houston defenders with him.
- 16:18They're playing well. Pretty good game here, guys.
- 16:21Got any thoughts on this one? Like this?
- 16:24Yeah, they're in the road. Go ahead, Tim.
- 16:27No, I'll say, I guess South Florida on the road.
- 16:30You know, I'd like to see how they can keep this going.
- 16:33They've actually had an impressive start to the season.
- 16:36They're getting 2 1/2. I'd almost lean to take them.
- 16:42Yeah over under 66 1/2 I was leaning on the over here
- 16:47actually, which that's a big number, but I actually think you
- 16:50could see a ton of scoring in this game.
- 16:52I think the weather is likely going to be good.
- 16:54I I looked at the weather. So I think that'll help USS fast
- 16:56that they're going to play fast. So I think, you know, higher
- 16:59play volume, more scoring opportunities either way.
- 17:01So I think there is an opportunity and once again, this
- 17:03is a big number, which is why I didn't touch it.
- 17:05But I think it's going to be a honest scoring.
- 17:08It's just, I didn't know where it was going to fall around that
- 17:10number. But at the end of the day, we
- 17:13are yeah, we're it's, I think it's, I think it's going to be a
- 17:15fun game to watch. It's just a hard one to call
- 17:17with that number. So that's my thoughts.
- 17:19Yeah, I like South Florida as well.
- 17:20I agree with you, Tim. They they've had a much tougher
- 17:22schedule than what North Texas played so far.
- 17:24So yeah, I'll take South Florida.
- 17:27Hey, little money line. I mean they're getting a point
- 17:28and 1/2 right now. It's probably shouldn't come
- 17:30into play, but maybe you get like a small plus money price on
- 17:34money line. Maybe look there and the last
- 17:36game that we don't have any action on Fresno State and Kurt
- 17:40Warner's kid laying 6 1/2 at a Colorado State team that I
- 17:45enjoyed fading last week. They did put up 24 points.
- 17:51But if you watch the game, you know their first touchdown came
- 17:53on a flea flicker when they were already down 14.
- 17:55Nothing. Their last score came on a
- 17:58passing touchdown at the end of the game when like 11 fans were
- 18:01playing defense for the Aztecs. So don't get too excited if you
- 18:05see the 24 here. But I, I have no thoughts here.
- 18:08You never know when EJ is going to Chuck two or three picks in a
- 18:11game. I don't even know what the
- 18:13weather's going to be like. I know UNLV and Wyoming last
- 18:15week had like an inch of hail on the field.
- 18:18I don't know what that weather's like this time of year.
- 18:20But I, I have nothing here. What do you guys got?
- 18:23Anything? Well, normally I would take the
- 18:26home team during the week, but this would be the one time I
- 18:29would actually probably just go with the road team here that
- 18:32just there. Colorado State's really, really
- 18:35bad like you said last week the way they scored.
- 18:38So I I would lean Fresno here. Yeah, I think I think so too.
- 18:45I mean, to your point, I mean, who knows with the weather
- 18:47what's going to happen there? So you know, it never who I I
- 18:51didn't touch this thing. I wouldn't touch this thing.
- 18:52It's just it's too unpredictable at this point.
- 18:54But interesting game. But I I'm just not not really
- 18:57that interested in it. All right, so let's move on to
- 19:01the big game Friday. We got a little Big 10 action.
- 19:03Both of you guys have a little bit on this.
- 19:08Rutgers traveling all the way across the country.
- 19:11We all know how we love that. But all right, hey, you guys,
- 19:17Tim, go ahead. We'll start with you, 'cause I
- 19:18know you, you, you love you some Washington.
- 19:21I do this is one of my swing for defenses picks for the for the
- 19:27conference. I do get a little concerned.
- 19:30They do have some coaching, but the penalties, not a lot of
- 19:35penalties this year for Rutgers. I think that just comes with the
- 19:38coach being, you know, like a Tom Coughlin type, you know,
- 19:43just Big Yeller. But the turnover like the time
- 19:47of possession. A lot of points I think will be
- 19:50scored. But I think at the end, I'm
- 19:52going to take Washington late. I got 10 1/2 when I placed his
- 19:58bet, so I watched him -10 1/2. I like him at home.
- 20:02You know, home, home team on a, on a weekday game instead of a
- 20:07Saturday. Short turn around.
- 20:08Even though they did, they were in Maryland last week and now
- 20:11they have to fly home. But still, they've been home for
- 20:13a few days. But third down conversion rates
- 20:18is very good for Washington. I think they're going to keep
- 20:20the ball a lot. I think they're going to have a
- 20:22lot of possessions. There's going to be at least two
- 20:24turnovers in this game, I think. So I like Washington covering
- 20:28the 10 1/2. Yeah, I mean, I agree with what
- 20:33you just said, which is that there's going to be a lot of
- 20:35scoring and and I and I really believe that.
- 20:37So 59 1/2 is the is the, is the line here, once again, a
- 20:41relatively big number. It's not huge, but I mean, for
- 20:43for this game, this is pretty enticing to me.
- 20:47I mean, I think Washington is going to score and they're going
- 20:49to score in bunches. Rutgers can score, right?
- 20:53So I think obviously Rutgers is going to be I think they're
- 20:55going to fall behind. I think they're going to be
- 20:57trying to fling the ball around to catch up.
- 20:59Either way, it's going to lead to either them scoring or
- 21:01throwing some picks and Washington's scoring more
- 21:04points. But either way, I I see a lot of
- 21:06points happening here. I'm also the last couple weeks
- 21:10I've been burned by a number of unders, which is generally my
- 21:15play. Earlier in the year we talked
- 21:16about this and I've been getting burned by in the last couple
- 21:19couple of weeks. So I am leading heavily into
- 21:21some overs this time with some teams that I probably have under
- 21:25appreciated their scoring ability.
- 21:26So Washington no doubt is going to score.
- 21:28I think Rutgers can score as well.
- 21:30So I have one unit play in the 59 1/2 going.
- 21:33Over yeah the passing game for Rutgers concerns me a little bit
- 21:38but I think if Washington can get ahead a little bit before
- 21:41where they know that they're going to pass they're not going
- 21:43to be doing like the play action I think they can get to the
- 21:45Greek kid there at Rutgers Calamakis but yeah the passing
- 21:52is the only thing that concerns me the Washington's past defense
- 21:54is isn't wonderful but. But yeah, I like your play.
- 21:58It's so I add that with my play to add to the to the points.
- 22:02So yeah, I agree with yours too. I think it's going to go.
- 22:05I'm surprised it was in the 50s, even though it's 59 1/2.
- 22:07But I mean, yeah, me too. I I thought it'd be, I was
- 22:09expecting like 62 or something like that.
- 22:11So yeah. Great.
- 22:12So I was happy with this number. Right.
- 22:14Absolutely. Hey, yeah.
- 22:18Yeah, I got nothing on this game.
- 22:19You guys both well, once I. Saw, you know, like we had this
- 22:23game picking these. Games, I was like, yeah, what
- 22:24less game I have to look at? So yeah, I have nothing.
- 22:28Yeah, like in most cases, I have nothing of value to add.
- 22:30So yeah. All right, moving on to
- 22:33Saturday. I have no idea.
- 22:35We order you got these in, so let's just go.
- 22:40I believe that's Pete's, isn't it?
- 22:43That's not on these two. Oh, maybe that's Tim's.
- 22:46I don't. Know that's Tim's?
- 22:46Yep. Oh, OK.
- 22:49Yeah, it's you thought it was Pete's because I took a play out
- 22:52of Pete's playbook here. I'm going to in the same design
- 22:56as the Washington game. This would be a ton of points.
- 22:59I got 55 1/2. I'm going to go over.
- 23:02This game actually has just statistically the top 2
- 23:06quarterbacks for the Heisman ones got the 16 touchdowns to 1
- 23:10interception. Forget which one, but the other
- 23:13one has 40. I think Oregon is 16 to 1 and
- 23:17Indiana has 14 touchdowns from one interception.
- 23:21A lot of passing. Again, neither team turns the
- 23:25ball over that much. They're really good on 3rd down.
- 23:30Indiana's defense has been more active as far as forcing
- 23:34turnovers, but the turnover margin only favors them by 1.
- 23:38I think they got to keep the ball out.
- 23:40It's going to be back and forth. It's going to be ping pong.
- 23:42I think 55 1/2 is a very attainable number.
- 23:47I wouldn't even be shocked. I'd be surprised, but not
- 23:50shocked if they have that by halftime.
- 23:54So yeah. So I bet 55 1/2 over Indiana at
- 23:57Oregon. Your thoughts?
- 24:01Well, you're in my wheelhouse on this one.
- 24:03Yeah, I, I, I like, I like where you're going with this one.
- 24:07I mean, I, I, Oregon's going to score a ton.
- 24:09Indiana can score as well. I I think there's going to be a
- 24:11lot of scoring in this game that that number is even more
- 24:13suppressed than the game we just talked about.
- 24:16I'm surprised he didn't play it. Yeah, Pete's going to be Max.
- 24:19I took one of his plays or something, but we had the same
- 24:22play. It's a game that I probably
- 24:24should have played and I love that play.
- 24:25I definitely would have played that, but I I I was trying to
- 24:28keep it down to three and the three I picked, but I love that
- 24:30pick. I think that over is a very,
- 24:32very ripe juicy over over to play so good.
- 24:36Good call man, I like it. Pete do.
- 24:42You mean me because you. Said that'll be Darren.
- 24:44I I just. I've only known you for like 3
- 24:471/2 decades. I'm Darren by the.
- 24:49Way 3 1/2, is that it? I think it's been, it's been
- 24:51almost 50 years at this. Point.
- 24:53We're young, guys. We're young.
- 24:54Oh, that's right. Yeah. 10 years.
- 24:57I mean, I, I, I have a win total bet on Indiana.
- 25:00This was not one of the games I expected them to win.
- 25:04Spread opened at like 10 and I think currently like down around
- 25:077 or 7 1/2. So a lot of Indiana money coming
- 25:11in here. I think Indiana's actually
- 25:14better than they were last year, which is part of the reason I
- 25:16went over 8 1/2 at a little bit of plus money.
- 25:19So yeah, I'm gonna hope Indiana wins like 56 to nothing and
- 25:24everybody's happy. Here we go.
- 25:26Won't happen. But you know, I I, like I said,
- 25:29I'm going to root for a win. I don't see it, but I think
- 25:33Indiana will keep it close. So if you wanted to take the
- 25:36seven, wouldn't hate it. But yeah, I'm just going to root
- 25:40for a crap ton of points so that Tim can cash his ticket.
- 25:43What's, what's the money line? Indiana win.
- 25:45I like that. That's interesting.
- 25:46That's got to be a yeah. I didn't do a sprinkle this week
- 25:49after the Purdue Purdue disaster, but I don't know if
- 25:51you guys had a sprinkler or not, but I I thought about it but.
- 25:55That would be an interesting sprinkle on that Indiana.
- 25:57Water line. It's probably like +2 something.
- 26:00Yeah, it's got to be nice. Yeah.
- 26:01Let me look. I'll take a look while we're
- 26:03doing this. But that's that's interesting.
- 26:07Whoops. Yeah, I clicked.
- 26:11On the wrong game I think D KS got.
- 26:13Plus 2:45. It might have been.
- 26:16Available. Might have intrigued me into a
- 26:18little sprinkle on that money line.
- 26:19That sounds really, really interesting.
- 26:21I could see this happening, I mean.
- 26:23I could have let me know. I got, could have got.
- 26:25I was gonna say get. The graphic with Pete's face up
- 26:27there? He's considering a sprinkle.
- 26:32Wait, my salt Bay thing. Sorry, there we.
- 26:34Go. There we go.
- 26:39All right. All right.
- 26:40What's the next? One or.
- 26:42Let's go to the next one. Oh, Pete and I both have this
- 26:48one. You, you want to go first?
- 26:50Pete? You want me to knock out with?
- 26:51The no, I'll I'll jump on this one.
- 26:53So over under 35 1/2, which is low and these two teams have
- 27:00both bitten me in the ass on unders multiple times this year,
- 27:04right. And so I am going the other
- 27:07direction on this. I just figured that you know
- 27:09what, Iowa seems to be able to score sometimes.
- 27:12Wisconsin seems to be able to score occasionally sometimes.
- 27:16So perhaps one of them will actually score this week and the
- 27:19other one might actually do something right.
- 27:22So this is originally, I mean, to me, this would have been an
- 27:25under all day long a couple weeks ago.
- 27:28Yeah, I, I, no, I'm going the other direction.
- 27:31It seems that maybe both of these teams will score, but one
- 27:34of them's going to that 35 1/2's a low number.
- 27:38So I am going one unit on the over just because I just I, I, I
- 27:41said I, I, I guess my, my, my base thoughts on both of these
- 27:47teams were just incorrect in in many ways this this time
- 27:50through. So I actually am extremely
- 27:52confident on this, on this over. So one unit over 35 1/2 on two
- 27:57teams that I probably should be betting under on, but I'm not.
- 27:59So that's my that's my spiel. I did not get the opening
- 28:06number, but I laid 3 here with Iowa.
- 28:10You know all the talk about Wisconsin's run defense.
- 28:12Iowa actually allows fewer rush yards per game than Wisconsin
- 28:15does. But nobody seems to be talking
- 28:16about Iowa because all of a sudden they're a scoring
- 28:18machine. Gronowski got hurt last game out
- 28:22against Indiana, but he is expected to play.
- 28:24So that will certainly help. And again, neither of these
- 28:28teams are going to beat themselves.
- 28:29I think combined, they don't even have 30 penalties between
- 28:31the two of them. But I mean, you know what you're
- 28:33going to get from Iowa and now they're actually scoring
- 28:37Wisconsin. I I don't know if they're still
- 28:39going with the backup quarterback or, or their regular
- 28:42star is supposed to go. I don't think it's going to
- 28:44matter. While, while I usually fear
- 28:47laying points with a low scoring team like Iowa, you know, like I
- 28:50said, they're not that anymore. So with a healthy Gronoski
- 28:55Wisconsin offense that that's kind of struggling right now.
- 28:58I mean, Pete, would you be all right with a 31 to 7 Iowa
- 29:01victory? I could see something just like
- 29:04that, 31, seven, and that would not shock me at all.
- 29:07Yeah. Yeah, I think like a close first
- 29:09half, maybe something like 13 to 7 at 1/2 time and then I was
- 29:12just like, you know what we're we're done here and.
- 29:14Then it's just like a back door over, right?
- 29:16Or I was going to score a blunt early.
- 29:17They're going to be ahead. And then Wisconsin will score
- 29:19late and it'll it'll be an over. Yeah, I, I, I, I I don't want to
- 29:23be the one to prognosticate on this, but as is Fickle's last
- 29:26game if he loses this. Yeah, probably.
- 29:28This should be his last game. Win or lose, he should be out.
- 29:31He's killed that program. Well, if he wins in going
- 29:34anywhere, but yeah, if he loses, I.
- 29:35Think he's not the right guy for that program?
- 29:37No, no, we've agreed on that. I wish it was.
- 29:40All right. They would have been if they
- 29:44never had fickle. Whatever they had, it might have
- 29:46been a downgrade from before, but it would have been better
- 29:48than what they're putting out there now.
- 29:49Yeah. Right here we go.
- 29:55Iowa State, Colorado. This is one of mine I got.
- 30:01I played, let me see, I think they're giving 2 1/2.
- 30:06I got Iowa State -2 1/2. Basically turnovers and
- 30:09quarterback play Again, I'm going with the road trip team.
- 30:16Colorado just can't hold on to the ball.
- 30:18It seems that they seem to commit a lot of turnovers.
- 30:23Some things are they play well. I mean, they it's not like
- 30:27they're just totally rolling over.
- 30:29I know Dionne has some health issues popped back up this week,
- 30:33so I hope he's doing well. You know, maybe get gets some
- 30:38inspired play out of the kids, but I'm just not seeing it with
- 30:42basically the quarterback playing the turnovers penalties
- 30:46as well. Yeah, I'm just looking at this.
- 30:49I think 2 1/2. I thought it would have been
- 30:51higher. So when I saw 2 1/2, I'll take
- 30:54it and I'll give it. And I like Iowa State taking
- 30:58over Colorado. All day, all day.
- 31:02Love it. No, Sir.
- 31:04I don't like Colorado. I don't like Colorado at all.
- 31:05I don't like them at home. I don't like them on the road.
- 31:07I don't like them playing anybody.
- 31:09I I love that lay the points all day.
- 31:11I think. I think Colorado is just not a
- 31:14very good team. And I think that Iowa State's
- 31:16going to beat them. So simple.
- 31:17Simple as that. Yeah, I mean, we talked about
- 31:22last week how Iowa State lost their top 2 cornerbacks.
- 31:24And while that was obviously a problem last week against
- 31:26Cincinnati, I don't think this is going to be a problem for
- 31:30Colorado here. So yeah, I like you got did you
- 31:34get 2 1/2 or did that go up to three?
- 31:37I. Don't remember what you had to.
- 31:392 1/2 which my yeah I got 2 even better.
- 31:42Yeah, 2 1/2. You placed there?
- 31:44Yeah, I think I placed it 2 days ago.
- 31:46So. I love that bet.
- 31:49Yeah, not I'm not. Yeah, I'm, I'm with Pete as far
- 31:51as not I mean, I know you got the Colorado win total thing
- 31:55here. So yeah, yeah, I, yeah, I agree
- 31:58with. Pete, I'm coloring that one
- 31:59lost, but yeah, I got 2 and a. Half all right cool yeah then
- 32:03then I do like that just for the fact that I'm not I'm not high
- 32:07on either team, but I'm just I I was been anti Colorado since
- 32:11yeah once once those two guys got their names called in the
- 32:15draft Sanders and. Hunter I was like, that was
- 32:17there it on? All.
- 32:19Over. See ya.
- 32:23Oh oh. No God.
- 32:25Yeah, boy. There we go.
- 32:28Should we start with I guess Who's bet is this?
- 32:30Is this yours, Pete? This is mine.
- 32:32So yeah, let's say let's hear it all.
- 32:37Right. Well, 57 1/2 is the total.
- 32:42Yeah. So I looking at this thing
- 32:50right. So Michigan has not been
- 32:52scoring. I don't think they're going to
- 32:53score a ton. I mean, to me, this is this is
- 32:55an under all day. I think that number is really
- 32:58inflated. I don't know where the hell that
- 32:59number is coming from. I don't think UCSUSC is very
- 33:02good to begin with. And you know, Michigan, while
- 33:05explosive at times, it it is like limited bits of explosion
- 33:11followed by a lot of inconsistency on the offense and
- 33:16pretty much the the deal all year long here.
- 33:18Once again, not terribly surprising with a younger
- 33:20quarterback. Although now that we're halfway
- 33:22in the season, I expect to see a little more growth coming here,
- 33:24which I I do expect. But yeah, I think Michigan's
- 33:28going to win this game. I mean, I'm I'm not sure what is
- 33:30what is the line? I didn't even look at what
- 33:32getting. Getting 2 1/2.
- 33:34Yeah, I mean, I I think Michigan's going to win this
- 33:36game. I like that.
- 33:37But I do really like the under here.
- 33:40I I I think that I think that the defense, Michigan's defense
- 33:45is going to slow USC down. I think it's going to be a
- 33:47closer, a close game. And I think it's going to be a
- 33:51semi low scoring game, not a really low scoring game.
- 33:53I wouldn't be surprised if it would be something like AI don't
- 33:56know, 30 to 24 kind of game or something like that at the
- 34:01higher end, probably lower than that.
- 34:03So I really do like this under here at the 57 1/2.
- 34:07So I'm going one unit on the under.
- 34:10Totally agree Michigan should just run the ball down US CS
- 34:15throat like all game long and not even really try They they
- 34:18should look like last year's Michigan because US CS defense
- 34:21surprisingly did not take another step forward like I
- 34:25thought they would after a pretty decent defensive
- 34:27performance last year. But you know you're not going to
- 34:30have to ask Bryce Underwood to do a whole lot here.
- 34:33I mean just turn around the right way and hand the ball off
- 34:37US CS defense not been good. Their offense is but not against
- 34:41the defense like this man. So enjoy the trip Michigan.
- 34:45You're going to beat the the multiple time zone trend I think
- 34:50yeah, I think I mean if it was it was better than plus 1/14 on
- 34:53the money line. But you know, might as well take
- 34:552 1/2. You never know what the hell
- 34:56could happen. But yeah, give me Michigan.
- 34:59I didn't bet it, but give me Michigan all day long here.
- 35:02Are you concerned about the bulletin board material that the
- 35:05Sharon Wright gave? No, USC.
- 35:09He was like, oh, they got the Coliseum and it's going to sell
- 35:11out, but only because we're coming.
- 35:14Well, it's pretty accurate, but I mean.
- 35:15Well, I mean still. It's not wrong.
- 35:17Yeah, it's. Not wrong, but you know, I want
- 35:23to give him a little extra. You know, these are kids.
- 35:25Anything, any little thing can fire him up so.
- 35:27I might fire up his own team with that too, so that's OK.
- 35:30I'm perfectly OK with that. I think that's not an
- 35:32unreasonable statement. If he said something stupid like
- 35:34James Franklin might say, it'd be different, but he's not James
- 35:36Franklin. We're good, so.
- 35:38All right, so go to the last pick.
- 35:44Let's do it. Yeah, another line that I missed
- 35:49hardcore on here. So I took Auburn in 3 1/2.
- 35:54This is basically give me the team off the bye week with the
- 35:58better defense. I mean, I watched Georgia like
- 36:00that entire game because I I had Georgia -20 1/2 against
- 36:04Kentucky. Despite them trying to give that
- 36:07to Kentucky, they managed to cover.
- 36:09So thanks guys, but this game is going to be a nice old ass, ugly
- 36:16SEC game. It's at night time.
- 36:18Auburn's retiring Cam Newton's jersey.
- 36:21So everybody should be dressed really well because, you know,
- 36:23Cam is a fashion icon. He does have a he does.
- 36:28And you look at Georgia. So two weeks ago they had that
- 36:30tough game against Bama. They kind of got a little lucky
- 36:33beat in Tennessee. Before that, you know, they
- 36:35handled their business against Kentucky and now they have Ole
- 36:38Miss next week, who I believe beat Georgia last year.
- 36:41So not that any game in the SEC. And I don't think Kirby's a guy
- 36:45that's going to have his team fall into like a look ahead kind
- 36:47of thing. But you have to assume that that
- 36:50game is on their mind as well knowing that Ole Miss beat them
- 36:52because who needs to hear Lane Kiffin rant any more than
- 36:55necessary? You know, Auburn had the now
- 36:58Grant. Auburn's offensive line is kind
- 36:59of ass. I'm not going to lie.
- 37:01Jackson Arnolds got sacked, what, five times against A and
- 37:03M9 times against Oklahoma had due to spend more time on the
- 37:08turf than the grounds crew at Jordan Harris Stadium here.
- 37:11But I think in that week off, they worked on some things.
- 37:15I think they're going to get right here.
- 37:17Plus George's got like two or three guys on the offensive
- 37:20line. 1's definitely out. Two are questionable according
- 37:23to the injury report that came out yesterday.
- 37:25And this is just like Georgia runs well, but Auburn's really
- 37:28good at stopping the run. So I think you're going to see
- 37:31Jackson. If you remember the Auburn
- 37:33Baylor game, you saw Jackson arm just run all over the place.
- 37:35I think you're going to see something similar here, mainly
- 37:39because who knows if the offensive line figured out how
- 37:41to protect them or not. But you know, Georgia's only got
- 37:447 sacks on the year. 2 of those came last week against Kentucky.
- 37:47Auburn's got like twice that many.
- 37:49So I know Georgia's the better team talent wise, but you know,
- 37:54give me give me the more rested team with a week off to prep.
- 37:57You know, Hugh Freeze is talking about how, you know, losing
- 38:00those last two games was like sickening.
- 38:02And, you know, whether he saves his job, I hope so.
- 38:07Not against the money line. Sprinkle.
- 38:09If this goes down to 3 or even 2 1/2, I don't see that happening.
- 38:13I think I think I got a bad number here.
- 38:14I think you're going to see some George money come in, honestly.
- 38:16But yeah, and this is not the George defense of old.
- 38:24This is not the old line that they need to to go up against
- 38:27his Auburn defense. So I'm calling for the upset,
- 38:30but I'm going to take the 3 1/2 just for the hell of it.
- 38:33So one unit on Auburn, baby hell put Cam Newton out there if you
- 38:37have to. He's going to be in attendance,
- 38:39so. Yeah.
- 38:40Rolling with. Auburn, one thing I noticed they
- 38:43covered for you, Georgia did last week in Kentucky.
- 38:45That was the first cover of the year.
- 38:46They are one and four against the spread.
- 38:48So there's a nice trend there. Well, they almost gave that
- 38:51away. They Kentucky was driving and
- 38:54Georgia just kept, you know, third down, 4th down.
- 38:56Ha, let's commit it. Same guy got like multiple
- 38:58holding penalties on the same drive.
- 39:00Kirby took him off the field, just chewed him a new one and
- 39:02put him right back out there to do it again.
- 39:03Like all right, whatever. Like 3 in the afternoon.
- 39:07My first game of the week already going to be a loss.
- 39:08But no, no, the 20 1/2 turned out to be a a good number.
- 39:11They they held on, but not the 2022-2023 Georgia teams.
- 39:16So go call him for the upset. Go over.
- 39:22Any thoughts on that, Peter? Peter's stuck.
- 39:28He has. Zero.
- 39:29No, I like that bet. I think the old runner was 46
- 39:321/2. I don't have it right in front
- 39:33of me. I.
- 39:35Think that's. Right, frozen, I have zero
- 39:38thoughts. He doesn't have any time for
- 39:42this SEC nonsense. He's a Big 10 guy.
- 39:45He's a Big 10 guy. I don't know why, I don't know.
- 39:49I don't know why I'm breaking up right now.
- 39:50My thoughts were I love the bet and over under I think was 46
- 39:541/2 or something like that, which is a weird number, so I
- 39:57could make it easily go over that number.
- 39:59But then again, these games tend to be defensive, so I was kind
- 40:02of all over the map on this thing, so I just punted.
- 40:04So yeah, those are my thoughts all.
- 40:06Right. All right, Darren, take us into
- 40:08the RPO segment. All right, well, we already
- 40:10covered the first one. I totally forgot that we were
- 40:12talking about that, so we can skip right over that.
- 40:14Ohio State playing 14 1/2 at Illinois.
- 40:16Thoughts, Tim? I like Ohio State.
- 40:20I just think for what I've seen from the last couple weeks, I
- 40:22think they can cover this no problem.
- 40:25Pete. Pete.
- 40:28Yep. Probably win by 100.
- 40:32Yeah, I noticed Illinois was one team that has yet to have a bye
- 40:34week. I'm assuming they're pretty damn
- 40:36exhausted. And think Ohio State rolls here.
- 40:40Big SEC match up. Bama laying three at Missouri.
- 40:42Pete. Missouri at home.
- 40:46It's interesting here. I don't hate them at home,
- 40:48although I think Bam will probably win the game, but I
- 40:51would be interested in that Missouri at home action there.
- 40:54This game was my fourth game so run to Alabama and that on minus
- 40:59the three. I you guys run to the window,
- 41:04I'll hold your table. I'm not running do anything with
- 41:07this at all. Scared to death it could go
- 41:09either way. Tim's favorite program?
- 41:12UCLA getting 8 1/2 at Michigan State.
- 41:15Tim, what do you? Think.
- 41:18Well, I'll help out UCLA again. I'll run through the window.
- 41:20Bet Michigan State. There we go.
- 41:24Ponder, ponder this. The team that just beat Penn
- 41:26State is getting 8 1/2 to go to Sparty.
- 41:30What the hell does that say about bat team?
- 41:31And what does that say about Penn State?
- 41:33That's the interesting play here.
- 41:36True. Yeah, no thoughts probably know
- 41:38UCLA be like, Yep, that was our bowl game.
- 41:40We do not care what happens the rest of the year.
- 41:43Aiden Childs still ask after all this time.
- 41:46I I wouldn't touch this game with with with anybody's money
- 41:51Red River Willy or Wony. I don't think John Metier is
- 41:54playing. But right now Oklahoma getting a
- 41:57point and a half against Texas in Dallas.
- 42:00Pete, thoughts? Zero trust in Texas right now.
- 42:04They, they're, I, I would take Oklahoma and, and, and take that
- 42:08point and a half. I think Texas is in trouble.
- 42:11I would pass, but I'm leading Oklahoma.
- 42:14Yeah, this was my fourth game. I was, I was going to take
- 42:17Oklahoma, but yeah, you kind of had to figure little
- 42:20gamesmanship thing. Yeah, we'll just list the tears
- 42:22questionable on all the reports that come out and we will dress
- 42:25him and we'll have him throw in some passes and then when we
- 42:28kick off, we'll send him back to the locker room because he's
- 42:29probably not playing. Yeah, I don't want, I'm
- 42:32obviously rooting for Oklahoma for my win total bet.
- 42:34But like Pete said, can you really trust Texas at this
- 42:37point, the fighting? Marcus Freeman's playing 23 1/2
- 42:41to North Carolina State. Tim, thoughts?
- 42:45Lean in Notre Dame. I have to go to try to somehow
- 42:48put together a playoff resume. They got to beat the crap out of
- 42:51everybody they play, so I guess we're going to try to run it up.
- 42:53So I would lean Notre Dame on this one, but I'm going to pass.
- 42:57Pete. And they score 24 points.
- 42:59If they can do that, they're going to win.
- 43:00They really ought to, but I don't.
- 43:01I don't know. I have no trust in them either
- 43:03at this point. Not touching this game at all.
- 43:06Just just went out, boys. That's all you got to do.
- 43:10Nebraska laying 6 1/2 at Maryland Big 10 Guy Pete, what
- 43:15say you? I got to lean into my Nebraska
- 43:17bet right? My future is bad.
- 43:19I think Nebraska has been been OK.
- 43:20So I would take Nebraska and lay those points.
- 43:24Yep. With Nebraska being on the road
- 43:26pass so it was in Nebraska. Probably run through the window.
- 43:30Throw some money on Nebraska, but.
- 43:32I don't know why it's Megan. Maryland.
- 43:34I wouldn't touch this game, but for Pete's sake, I hope Nebraska
- 43:37pulls it out. Arkansas and Bobby Petrino, his
- 43:41first game. Well, I guess again his first
- 43:43game as head. Coach 2 point O back in her
- 43:47third. Stint getting 12 1/2 at
- 43:49Tennessee. Pete.
- 43:50Thoughts. Tennessee's tough at home.
- 43:53It's hard to not not take Tennessee here.
- 43:56I agree, kind of say. Yeah, the overrunners like
- 43:59pushing 70, which maybe tells me 12 1/2 might be too much, but
- 44:06no, no interest here. And another Tim special, Texas
- 44:10A&M at home laying 7 1/2 against Florida.
- 44:14I'm just going to say Florida, I bet on you twice.
- 44:17Once to win, once to lose. You screwed me both times.
- 44:19You're the Washington Capitals of college football.
- 44:22If I can't win a game when I bet on or against the Capitals,
- 44:25running away and what are you? Doing Texas A&M runs out a
- 44:30window, so let's go, Marcel. Keep it going.
- 44:34Pete. How are you that I'd love to see
- 44:36Florida and Penn Penn State play right now and see who screws it
- 44:39up worse all. Right back to the Big 12.
- 44:43Texas Tech looking very good this year at home laying 2
- 44:47touchdowns to Kansas. Pete what?
- 44:51Do you think at home Texas Tech, I'd probably go that direction,
- 44:53but I didn't. I didn't dig too deep into this
- 44:54one. Follow the money.
- 44:57Follow the money. Texas Tech.
- 44:59Yeah, I like the way Kansas playing offensively, but their
- 45:02defense is still not very good. That's a little issue with Texas
- 45:06Tech's quarterback and concussion protocol.
- 45:08He's expected to play. If that's the case, yeah, I'll
- 45:09take Texas Tech. Also, South Carolina getting 8
- 45:141/2 at LSU. Pete, what do you think?
- 45:17Not loving what I see with Carolina either.
- 45:19Carolina this year, so I would take LSU.
- 45:22Yeah, I'd run to the window with LSU, absolutely.
- 45:24At some point, that offense has got to pick it up.
- 45:27If it can't do it against South Carolina's defense, LSU's the
- 45:30fade from here on out. If they they don't cover this,
- 45:33BYU laying a point and 1/2 at Arizona.
- 45:36Tim, what do you think? Pass at 47.
- 45:39Still the quarterback, but I like BYU.
- 45:41Here also like BYU. It should be an interesting game
- 45:46though. But I do like BYU.
- 45:49Yeah, we're going to see if Arizona's for real here.
- 45:51BYU definitely has a better defense, but Arizona at home,
- 45:54Something tells me this is an upset.
- 45:55I mean, you're only getting a point to have, I guess.
- 45:57Not really an upset, but I don't know, BYU kind of let West
- 46:01Virginia hang around a little bit last week.
- 46:04But yeah, I mean, I guess I would go Arizona just for just
- 46:08to be different, but I'm not betting this at all.
- 46:11And finally, Arizona State getting 6 at Utah.
- 46:15Damn, What do you think? I like Utah at home.
- 46:18I'd run with the one through the window.
- 46:19Bet on Utah. 8 Same same Utah at home.
- 46:24God, am I the only idiot that's disagreeing with Arizona +6?
- 46:27Seems like a lot. It was.
- 46:30I think it was less than that to start the week.
- 46:32I don't know, I didn't really look at a lot.
- 46:33Just seems Arizona State +6 with all they have coming back just
- 46:38seems like too much. I don't know, I'd avoid it, but
- 46:40I guess if I had to do something I would take the Sun Devils here
- 46:44with the six. What the heck?
- 46:47If we wrap it up here, fellows. Indeed.
- 46:51Yeah, star all. Right, Pete, get us rolling.
- 46:57Up. Oh yeah, My bet for this week.
- 46:59So Friday game, Washington, Rutgers over 59 and a half, one
- 47:03unit. By the way, look at that season
- 47:05record. I'm very unhappy with being on
- 47:07the 500 on way. Onward we go.
- 47:08So Iowa, Wisconsin over 35 1/2. That's a really low number.
- 47:12Michigan, USC under 57 1/2. I see that being a good game, a
- 47:15close game, but not a really high scoring game.
- 47:18So yeah, I love that play. All right, I got 2 units on
- 47:22Washington -10 1/2 over Rutgers, I got over 55 1/2 with Indiana
- 47:27and Oregon, and I have Iowa State -2 1/2 over Colorado.
- 47:33Tonight we kick it off. Little Southern Miss Lane three
- 47:35over Georgia Southern. I'm also laying three with Iowa
- 47:38over Wisconsin and calling the upset but taking a 3 1/2 just in
- 47:42case. Give me Auburn plus 3 1/2 over
- 47:45Georgia all. Right, well, that'll do it.
- 47:51What do you think, fellas? Week 7, let's get it going.
