• 0:06
  Get ready for the political sensation with super host and
• 0:10
  news breaker Preston Olsen. Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and
• 0:16
  gentlemen, welcome to Preston Super Show.
• 0:20
  This is the Super new and this is the 77th installment.
• 0:25
  There are over 500 episodes of Preston Super Show.
• 0:30
  Listen wherever you like. I'm talking about every game
• 0:35
  from Tuesday night up until Thursday night.
• 0:40
  That's a total of 6 games. This will be Part 1 of Week 8
• 0:47
  college football, giving you a preview of every game, dishing
• 0:52
  out my picks, and of course, the best bets.
• 0:56
  Let's get it going tonight, October 14th, 2025, we have New
• 1:03
  Mexico State up against Liberty. This is at 6:00 PM.
• 1:08
  Watch it on CBS Sports Network. Total set at 48 1/2 and the New
• 1:14
  Mexico State Aggies are the plus 10 1/2 underdogs at the spread
• 1:19
  as well as the plus 320 underdogs on the money line.
• 1:25
  This is going to be a high scoring affair in my opinion.
• 1:29
  You have two teams that are ready to explode on a Tuesday
• 1:32
  night over 48 1/2. I love that.
• 1:36
  I do believe Liberty wins this game.
• 1:39
  There's just too much going for them right now.
• 1:41
  But let's not count New Mexico State out.
• 1:45
  I like New Mexico State plus 10 1/2 on the spread.
• 1:48
  Let's talk about how they get that done.
• 1:51
  Their quarterback Logan Fight 6 touchdowns, 4 interception ratio
• 1:57
  is not good, but he's 98 for 172 with 1272 passing yards.
• 2:03
  Compare that with Liberty who's such a big favorite in this game
• 2:08
  two and four on the season and their quarterback has a six
• 2:12
  touchdown to three interception ratio with only 1006 passing
• 2:17
  yards. He has 74 for 129 passing
• 2:23
  completions and when you look at the running game for Liberty,
• 2:28
  this is where people think they're going to get the most
• 2:31
  bang for their buck. Looking at this rushing attack
• 2:34
  for Liberty with Evan Dickens carrying this football 65 times
• 2:41
  for 344 rushing yards and two touchdowns, he will have the
• 2:47
  compliments of Dante Lee Junior at wide out 12 catches, 3
• 2:52
  touchdowns and 289 yards receiving.
• 2:56
  These are teams that are very quick on offense, haven't been
• 2:59
  able to have the type of success that they've wanted this year
• 3:04
  and now here's an opportunity for them to take out a little
• 3:07
  bit of their frustrations on each other and see who will be
• 3:10
  better. I really think plus 10 1/2 for
• 3:14
  New Mexico State is my best bet. I love the over at 48 1/2.
• 3:19
  I don't think the defenses play that much of a factor.
• 3:23
  I'm looking for points and bunches in this game.
• 3:27
  I believe both teams at week 8 now have enough to get us over
• 3:35
  the hump. Next up, we have Arkansas State
• 3:39
  for South Alabama, and this is the Red Wolves up against the
• 3:43
  Jaguars. All teams have not played to the
• 3:47
  level they could have so far this year.
• 3:51
  Watch it on ESPN 2 kick off at 6:30 PM.
• 3:54
  If this game's more your speed, I understand we're going to
• 3:57
  really hammer this one away. Arkansas State is 2 and four,
• 4:01
  South Alabama's one and five total at 58 1/2.
• 4:06
  The Arkansas State Red Wolves are plus 7 1/2 at the spread and
• 4:10
  the South Alabama Jaguars are -275 on the spread.
• 4:15
  That puts Arkansas State at plus 225 on the money line.
• 4:20
  There's a lot of reason to believe that this game will go
• 4:23
  over. However, I want to discuss more
• 4:27
  about this game before I dish out any picks.
• 4:31
  Arkansas State coming off a big win, 31 to 30 against Texas
• 4:34
  State. We see that the defenses aren't
• 4:37
  holding, but the offenses are moving along pretty well.
• 4:42
  Now. South Alabama has competed in
• 4:44
  about every game, just come up short, and in their last game
• 4:49
  against Troy, they lose 31 to 24 in overtime.
• 4:54
  I think the under is more predictable here.
• 4:58
  I think you get the under 58 1/2.
• 5:01
  This thing opened at 57 1/2 and moved up a point.
• 5:04
  I don't really care for that. I think the offenses need a
• 5:08
  little time to get going and the defenses, even though they're
• 5:12
  not that good, are going to be under some pretty big lights
• 5:16
  tonight and I think they will stand up early on.
• 5:23
  You have a quarterback on Arkansas State and Jalen Rayner,
• 5:26
  148 for 221, eight touchdowns for interceptions, 1451 passing
• 5:32
  yards. They're running back Devin
• 5:35
  Spencer, 43 carriers, a touchdown, 200 rushing yards.
• 5:39
  You could start to see that this is a team that leads through the
• 5:42
  air. Their receiver has 406 receiving
• 5:46
  yards, Chauncey Cobb 34 receptions.
• 5:49
  That's showing me that they favor one guy over most
• 5:53
  everybody. Same thing on the other side.
• 5:56
  When you look at South Alabama and what I really understand
• 6:00
  about the South Alabama team with Bishop Davenport, who's 96
• 6:04
  for 149, nine touchdowns, 400 receptions, 1063 passing yards.
• 6:10
  Then you look at the running back Kentrell Bullock, 108
• 6:13
  carries, 496 rushing yards and five touchdowns.
• 6:17
  He's going to look to put it on this Arkansas State defense.
• 6:22
  I can see why South Alabama is favored at home.
• 6:26
  We know that South Alabama is going to be able to run the ball
• 6:28
  pretty well against this Arkansas State team.
• 6:32
  It's more of a reason to like the under as a lot of time is
• 6:35
  going to get spent doing that. Then you factor in a lot of the
• 6:39
  other things that are going to take place in this game.
• 6:41
  But I do believe the best bet is Arkansas State plus 7 1/2.
• 6:47
  And I do think South Alabama wins this game and the under
• 6:50
  cash is in for us. And then we could step on, move
• 6:54
  to that third game for tonight, Tuesday night, and they'll be
• 6:57
  plenty of time to hear this podcast before the game kicks
• 7:00
  off. And if this falls in your
• 7:02
  rotation sometime long after on Pandora or some other Internet
• 7:07
  radio service or podcast platform, God bless you.
• 7:13
  We have the Florida International Panthers versus
• 7:17
  the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers of this game.
• 7:21
  I'm going to shape a little bit differently.
• 7:22
  I think this is more of a blowout.
• 7:25
  Watch it on ESPNU. It may not turn into a blowout,
• 7:30
  but there's a reason to watch this game either way.
• 7:34
  Kick off at 7:00 PM. Again, you can watch it on ESPN
• 7:37
  University. Great channel.
• 7:41
  Florida International. Not very impressive this year.
• 7:44
  The last two years they sort of had a team recruiting didn't
• 7:48
  kind of go their way. Total of 55 1/2.
• 7:52
  I'll tell you right now that's going over.
• 7:54
  Western Kentucky will push this their five and one, three and O
• 7:57
  in their conference. Florida International plus 9 1/2
• 8:01
  at the spread for Western Kentucky is going to dominate
• 8:05
  this game. Western Kentucky has a good
• 8:08
  quarterback and Maverick Mcivor, he's going to ball out this
• 8:11
  game. 151 for 200 and 2312 touchdowns, 2 interceptions,
• 8:16
  1704 passing yards. Got to like that.
• 8:23
  He's spreading the ball around. On the other side, you have
• 8:26
  Florida International, you know, their quarterback.
• 8:30
  I'm not against this guy. Keon Jenkins 88 for 142
• 8:34
  touchdowns for an exception, 775 passing yards.
• 8:37
  It's just not there. But the running back is really
• 8:39
  good Key. John Owens, 76 carries, 5
• 8:43
  touchdowns, 463 rushing yards. I do think this is a blowout, so
• 8:49
  I'm going to say Western Kentucky covers that -9 1/2.
• 8:52
  It's opened at -8 1/2. I do like Western Kentucky to
• 8:58
  clean house, win this game pretty easily.
• 9:00
  Total goes over 55 1/2, even if it has to happen in garbage
• 9:05
  time. The over is coming through
• 9:08
  tonight in that game. Moving to Wednesday night's
• 9:11
  action. Again, Wednesday night's action,
• 9:15
  so tomorrow, 6:00 PM. Watch it on ESPN.
• 9:19
  You're going to have the Delaware Blue Hens, very good
• 9:23
  team up against the Jacksonville State Gamecocks.
• 9:27
  This is not a bad Jacksonville State team.
• 9:30
  This game will be fairly close, but Delaware's really good.
• 9:36
  Those two losses are like blinks of an eye to this team.
• 9:42
  Three and two Delaware, three and three Jacksonville.
• 9:45
  Total set at 57 1/2. Jacksonville State is the plus 2
• 9:50
  1/2 underdogs at the spread and the plus 120 money line
• 9:54
  underdogs. There's going to be an
• 9:57
  opportunity maybe to get a plus point on Delaware or 1 1/2
• 10:04
  points on Delaware. There may be an opportunity
• 10:07
  depending how this sizes up at game time.
• 10:12
  Let's be real. You have Jacksonville State, who
• 10:15
  was barely able to beat the worst team in college football.
• 10:18
  Same Houston Bearcats. God bless that same Houston
• 10:21
  team. But they are the worst team in
• 10:23
  college football. And you know it's not their
• 10:25
  fault entirely. They have effort and they try,
• 10:28
  so they're not bad. They're just not winning.
• 10:33
  When you look at that Jacksonville State quarterback
• 10:34
  and compare him to Delaware's quarterback, you really can't.
• 10:37
  It's like apples to oranges. Nick Minucci, 120 for A1868
• 10:44
  touchdowns, 3 interceptions, 1379 passing yards and he's
• 10:50
  literally tossing the ball like a rocket compared to
• 10:54
  Jacksonville State who just plays so lackadaisical with
• 10:58
  their quarterback. Gavin Winsat, 58 for 104
• 11:04
  passing, 2 touchdowns, 2 interceptions and 576 passing
• 11:08
  yards. I mean, it's not even close.
• 11:10
  They're trying to do everything through their running back Camp
• 11:13
  Cook, 142 carries, 7 touchdowns, 832 rushing yards.
• 11:18
  He's definitely getting close to the 1000 yard mark.
• 11:21
  He will get there. On the other side, you have Joe
• 11:24
  Silver, the running back for Delaware, who's also good.
• 11:27
  They use kind of a myriad of running backs, but he's their
• 11:30
  lead back with three touchdowns, 62 carries and 373 rushing
• 11:35
  yards. And at receiver, this is who you
• 11:37
  got to look out for. Kyrie Duplessis, 22 receptions,
• 11:43
  2 touchdowns, 340 receiving yards.
• 11:46
  He's going to be a monster in this game.
• 11:49
  Jacksonville State doesn't have anybody to match up with him.
• 11:54
  I believe Delaware wins. They cover the -2 1/2.
• 11:59
  This total goes way over 57 1/2. That's my best bet.
• 12:03
  But I also really like Delaware to win on the money line.
• 12:06
  If that sizes up a little bit more closer to a pick em, I
• 12:14
  would slam it home. Next up, UTEP versus Sam
• 12:19
  Houston, who we just talked about.
• 12:21
  How about those Sam Houston Bearcats?
• 12:24
  You know what, it's time for them to turn things around,
• 12:27
  isn't it? UTEP is 1 and five.
• 12:30
  They, they used to be a team last 3-4 years, they would just
• 12:34
  score. If it was just a a regular team,
• 12:36
  average team around their level, their skill level, they would
• 12:39
  just score a ton of points, 40 points, 30 points, We'd get a
• 12:43
  ton of points out of Utah. Now it's a dry run.
• 12:47
  Something has to change. The Utah Miners are a points
• 12:50
  team. We need points with you guys.
• 12:53
  Sam Houston, Well, I think at one point they had a pretty
• 12:58
  decent defense, but they never really had a ball out offense or
• 13:03
  anything like that. But I see such an improvement in
• 13:07
  their last game and UTEP is just taking steps back.
• 13:10
  Here's the time where Sam Houston can become not the worst
• 13:14
  team and UTEP will be the worst team after this game.
• 13:18
  That's what I think is going to happen.
• 13:20
  Hunter Watson quarterback for Sam Houston.
• 13:23
  This is going to kick off tomorrow at 6:00 PM Wednesday
• 13:26
  night. Total at 47 1/2 Sam Houston plus
• 13:29
  2 1/2 on the spread and 1 + 120 on the money line.
• 13:34
  Hunter Watson, that 4 touchdown to three interception ratio.
• 13:38
  Don't even pay attention to the stats.
• 13:41
  You have Hunter Watson trying to do it all for Sam Houston on
• 13:44
  offense and Malachi Nelson who has some some help with Utah.
• 13:50
  This game goes under 47 1/2 Sam Houston wins plus 2 1/2.
• 13:56
  They cover and we just step on. We just step on from that
• 14:00
  because I don't want to dampen the mood, right?
• 14:04
  I want Sam Houston to go get a win and feel good about it and I
• 14:08
  actually think they will. This is the perfect time to
• 14:11
  strike for them. Last game, this is Thursday
• 14:15
  night. I'm going to come back with
• 14:17
  Friday night and Saturday picks on the next college football
• 14:22
  podcast this week that will be out by Thursday.
• 14:26
  Last game I'm going to talk about for this episode. 6:30 PM
• 14:30
  kickoff. Watch it on ESPN Thursday night.
• 14:33
  This is the only Thursday night game in college football.
• 14:37
  Total set of 53 1/2 between Tulsa and East Carolina.
• 14:42
  Tulsa is the plus 17 1/2 underdogs at the spread and the
• 14:46
  plus 550 underdogs at the money line.
• 14:50
  Both teams are going to be firing on all cylinders for this
• 14:55
  game. This is a really good game for
• 14:58
  both of these teams, but East Carolina is just light years
• 15:02
  better. Kate and Howser, the quarterback
• 15:06
  for East Carolina, he's pretty good. 142 for 210 passing, 8
• 15:11
  touchdowns, 4 interceptions, 1689 passing yards.
• 15:16
  He gets to hand it off. The London Montgomery is a good
• 15:20
  back, 60 carries, 240 rushing the ball and two touchdowns and
• 15:25
  then they have a stub wide receiver with over 400 yards
• 15:27
  receiving. Anthony Smith, 30 catches, 1
• 15:30
  touchdown. He's going to get them in the
• 15:32
  range they need to continue to score in the red zone.
• 15:37
  Defense won't be much of a factor.
• 15:39
  I like the over 53 1/2 love Tulsa to cover plus 17 1/2 E
• 15:44
  Carolina wins. But I will mention a couple
• 15:47
  things about Tulsa quarterback Baylor Hayes, 77 for 126, four
• 15:53
  touchdowns, 3 interceptions, 787 passing yards.
• 15:57
  He will be handing off to Dominic Richardson. 112 carries,
• 16:01
  2 touchdowns, 538 rushing yards. And then they have their top
• 16:05
  receiver, Zion Booker, 35 catches, 1 touchdown, 294
• 16:10
  receiving yards. They're looking to have a better
• 16:13
  outing than they had against Memphis.
• 16:16
  They very well could. I like them to cover that.
• 16:18
  Plus 17 1/2. It goes over the total and East
• 16:22
  Carolina wins. Ladies and gentlemen, just like
• 16:26
  the hands of time. I'm turning it over to you.
• 16:29
  Goodnight and God bless. Psalm 37.
• 16:31
  Four KJB.
