College Football Playoff 1st Round Predictions | Charlie Marlow Show · Kenny Wallace Media

• 0:00
  What's up, everybody? Charlie Marlow here.
• 0:02
  Let's break it down. College Football Playoff, first
• 0:05
  round. We'll start with tonight,
• 0:07
  Alabama versus Oklahoma. Let's go to the games first.
• 0:10
  OK? I told you tonight.
• 0:12
  Tomorrow morning, you got Miami, Texas A&M.
• 0:16
  You have to look at my computer. Then you have the 2:30, the
• 0:20
  midday window. Tulane, my dad's alma mater for
• 0:24
  grad school and Ole Miss. And then the night game, you
• 0:28
  know you're excited about James Madison at Oregon.
• 0:33
  OK, first of all, I'm just going to be honest.
• 0:36
  I love the little guys in basketball.
• 0:39
  I love the Cinderella's, not so much in the College Football
• 0:44
  Playoff. And that's the first thing that
• 0:45
  comes to mind. I hate to say it.
• 0:47
  And again, I'm an Ohio State fan, yes, but I went to Bradley
• 0:51
  University. I'm a mid major guy.
• 0:53
  I have no freaking interest in watching Tulane and Ole Miss.
• 0:58
  I probably won't even watch that game unless it gets close.
• 1:01
  Then I'll TuneIn, and then also James Madison and Oregon.
• 1:06
  I'm sorry, you can call me a hater.
• 1:09
  I'll TuneIn. Look, James Madison and Tulane,
• 1:12
  you have to prove it to me. You have to be in the game.
• 1:16
  If it's the second quarter and it's close, I'm going to tune
• 1:19
  in. Otherwise, we got to fix this
• 1:23
  because let's be real, two of the four College Football
• 1:28
  Playoff first round games on paper are absolute freaking
• 1:34
  snoozers. I'm not saying it's going to end
• 1:36
  this way, but look at the spreads.
• 1:38
  OK, so Alabama, Oklahoma, where am I at here?
• 1:43
  Alabama, Oklahoma, you have OU as a 1 1/2 point favorite.
• 1:49
  Miami, Texas A&M, it's at A&M. The Aggies are a three-point
• 1:54
  favorite at home. Then look at the spreads for the
• 1:58
  next two games. OK, Ole Miss at home, 17 1/2
• 2:04
  point favorite, 2 1/2 touchdowns.
• 2:07
  Oregon, it's even worse, 20.5 point favorite for the Ducks at
• 2:15
  home. I'm not saying that's going to
• 2:17
  be the way the scores end. I mean, look, 20 1/2 points, I
• 2:21
  remember that that was last year.
• 2:22
  Ohio State was favored by, I think that exact amount against
• 2:26
  Michigan and they frickin lost the game straight up.
• 2:30
  They lost outright. What was that, 1310?
• 2:34
  I'm not saying it's going to end that way, but on paper, these
• 2:36
  are frickin snoozers. We have to fix this.
• 2:39
  But I'm very excited about Alabama, Oklahoma.
• 2:42
  I'm even more excited about Miami, Texas A&M, because the
• 2:45
  winner of that game will face my Buckeyes.
• 2:48
  I think you know by now when I say my Buckeyes, I didn't go to
• 2:51
  Ohio State. I'm from Ohio, been an Ohio
• 2:53
  State fan my whole life. Deal with it.
• 2:55
  So obviously whoever wins Miami, Texas A&M plays Ohio State.
• 2:59
  Here's another thing, I loved the playoff last year and it
• 3:03
  wasn't just because Ohio State won it all.
• 3:05
  I mean, that's a big part of it, but also you had a month's worth
• 3:08
  of build up. And that's why I actually
• 3:12
  preferred Ohio State played in the first round.
• 3:15
  I really do. And again, maybe it's because
• 3:17
  they won it all last year, but like I'm kind of bored now.
• 3:21
  Ohio State, they lost to Indiana.
• 3:24
  They had to wait. Like what was the number?
• 3:26
  Was it 24 days? Whatever the math is, I can't
• 3:31
  remember. But they're going to have to
• 3:33
  wait a long time. I think that game, that game is
• 3:36
  New Year's Eve. Ohio State will play the winner
• 3:38
  of Miami, Texas A&M. So whenever that game versus
• 3:42
  Indiana was, I think it was like the 6th or 7th.
• 3:45
  So 24 days before playing as an Ohio State fan, that kind of
• 3:50
  sucks. They have to wait for all that.
• 3:53
  So there you go. And look, should I make my
• 3:56
  predictions? Should I make my predictions?
• 3:59
  Let's go backwards. First of all, I am going to, I
• 4:02
  am going to choose Oregon in Ole Miss, but let's go with the
• 4:06
  spreads here. So there's something on the
• 4:08
  line. It's too freaking easy to say
• 4:10
  Oregon's going to win and Ole Miss is going to win.
• 4:14
  So I'm going to go ahead and say I'm going to say Oregon covers
• 4:21
  the 20 1/2. I'm going to say Oregon wins 42.
• 4:27
  I'm making this up as I go, but I might bet these also.
• 4:30
  I'm going to say Oregon wins 42 to let's go 174217 Oregon
• 4:41
  covers. Don't read into any of that with
• 4:43
  the over under. I'm just kind of making it up as
• 4:45
  I go. I may bet the over unders later,
• 4:47
  but I haven't really thought it through.
• 4:49
  But let's just say wow, the total is 45 1/2.
• 4:52
  So maybe I went too high, but hey, I'm just going off my gut.
• 4:56
  4217 Oregon, Oregon covers. I, I want to say Tulane.
• 5:03
  I want to say Tulane covers, but I don't think I don't think they
• 5:07
  do. I think Ole Miss actually has a
• 5:08
  lot to prove with Lane Kiffin not being there.
• 5:11
  So let's go. This is a much higher total, 57
• 5:16
  1/2, let's go Ole Miss. I almost want to say the same
• 5:21
  score. Let's go Ole Miss 41 and Tulane.
• 5:29
  How about we'll make it a little closer?
• 5:32
  Ole Miss 41, Tulane 21, how about that?
• 5:37
  So both teams cover. I hope I'm wrong, by the way.
• 5:42
  I absolutely hope I'm wrong. I hope there's good games.
• 5:45
  I hope there's an upset. I wouldn't mind Ole Miss getting
• 5:49
  upset, although I feel like to kind of stick it to Elaine
• 5:52
  Kiffin. I want Ole Miss to win.
• 5:54
  It'd be sweet if James Madison won.
• 5:56
  I don't think it's going to happen, but there you go.
• 5:59
  OK, we're working backwards. Miami, Texas A&M.
• 6:04
  For whatever reason, for whatever reason, Miami worries
• 6:10
  me a little more. Maybe it's because I watched
• 6:13
  more of Miami. Maybe it's because Texas beat
• 6:16
  Texas A&M at the end. I'll tell you what.
• 6:19
  I'll tell you what, Spags. I'm going to go with an upset.
• 6:24
  I'm going to go Miami. I like Miami with the points.
• 6:28
  I'm thinking this through. I'll bet Miami plus three, OK,
• 6:32
  Are they going to actually win at Texas A&M?
• 6:35
  I'm going to go ahead and say yes, OK, I'll take Miami in an
• 6:39
  epic close game. Let's go Miami 2421 over the
• 6:46
  Aggies. Again, don't read into the over
• 6:48
  under on that. I haven't really thought that
• 6:50
  through. OK, so basically little bit of
• 6:54
  an upset there. I'm picking Miami at Texas A&M
• 6:57
  Now, the big one. Tonight we got Alabama at
• 7:01
  Oklahoma. Oklahoma, A 1 1/2 point
• 7:05
  favorite. I have to refresh this real
• 7:07
  quick to make sure that's accurate.
• 7:08
  I'm going by ESPN, by the way. Give me a second.
• 7:11
  My computer's over here. Has that line moved?
• 7:16
  Let's see. I still have OU -1 1/2 totals,
• 7:20
  40 1/2. I was checking on my sports book
• 7:24
  apps on my phone. I have like 3 now, now that it's
• 7:28
  legal in Missouri. So this is a tough one.
• 7:32
  Again, I haven't really thought this through, as you can tell.
• 7:37
  I kind of, I kind of want Oklahoma to win because I feel
• 7:42
  like Alabama fans will lose their minds.
• 7:46
  Probably a better storyline. If Alabama wins, they can kind
• 7:50
  of say, screw you, we deserve to be in the playoff.
• 7:53
  After I said Notre Dame should get in over Alabama, they'd shut
• 7:57
  me up. It's a better story.
• 7:59
  Is it a better story if Alabama wins or loses?
• 8:04
  You can't fire De Boer now, right?
• 8:07
  The timing of this is crazy. If Alabama, what if they lost?
• 8:10
  De Boer could go to Michigan or whatever.
• 8:12
  I don't know what's going on with the with the contract
• 8:14
  extension. I've been out of town, so I
• 8:15
  haven't been locked in, as you can tell.
• 8:18
  I'll tell you what I think. I think I'm going to go with
• 8:23
  Oklahoma. I'm going to go with Oklahoma.
• 8:26
  Super close game, super good game.
• 8:28
  Let's go. Is it a little more high scoring
• 8:32
  than we think? Is it an under?
• 8:36
  Let's go with Oklahoma wins. 2117 over Alabama, 2117,
• 8:45
  Oklahoma wins. Those are my predictions.
• 8:49
  I got Oregon, obviously. I got Oregon covering.
• 8:54
  I got Ole Miss covering. I have Miami winning outright at
• 8:58
  Texas A&M, and I went ahead and said it.
• 9:01
  I said Oklahoma's going to beat Alabama, and by my points, they
• 9:04
  also cover the 1 1/2. So there you go.
• 9:07
  All right, guys, by the way, if you're in Saint Louis, Triad
• 9:11
  Bank. Best thing I ever did for my
• 9:13
  rental property business, taking all my commercial loans from a
• 9:15
  big National Bank that didn't care about me to a local bank,
• 9:19
  Triad Bank over there in Frontenac.
• 9:21
  Been working with my guy Matthew Tobin for years.
• 9:23
  He's fantastic. They've been a sponsor for like
• 9:25
  5-6 years. I think I've had seven loans
• 9:28
  with them total. We have two right now.
• 9:29
  Line of credit off this house, Brand new rental property we
• 9:33
  just bought in the summer and I called my guy Matthew Tobin on
• 9:38
  Memorial Day weekend. I hated to do it and he answered
• 9:40
  and he hooked me up on a holiday weekend.
• 9:42
