  Speaker 1: Lee Sterling, six out of seven winning weeks right now.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: He's got a college football 50-unit game of the year
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: on Saturday, so you know this is a good week
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: to check in with him and get his selections. Let's
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: talk to him right now about a bunch of games
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: here of local interest, and he's going to tell you
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: how to get his game of the week, which is
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: Packers and Cowboys, and he's also going to tell you
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: how to get that big college pick this week. He
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: is Lee Sterling from Paramount Sports. ParamountSports.com. Lee, how are
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: you feeling on this Football Friday?
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: Great. I love the intro with Scooby-Doo. I mean, bring feedback.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: My two daughters will be sitting in the kitchen watching Scooby-Doo.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: What do you guys want for breakfast? And they're like,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Scooby Snacks, of course.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: I love it. I love it, man. Scooby-Doo rocks. No
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: doubt about it. All right, Lee, let's get into these
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: picks because if you're going to be able to afford
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Scooby Snacks for your kids out there listening, you might
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: need to hit some picks this weekend. All right, let's
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: get to Duke, North Carolina. This is a game that's
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: very interesting because Duke slipped up last week. UNC got
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: a really big win, so I think there feels like
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: there's some intrigue in this matchup. Duke, though, is a
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: three-and-a-half point favorite. What do you say about this one?
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and they did slip up, but They got hoodwinked
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: by the winds, and they tried to do a little
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: bit too much. UNC quarterback Billy Edwards isn't real good,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: and he's going to throw interceptions. He's got to give
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: them different looks, put them in some third-long situations. That's
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: why he moved around a couple different schools. Duke just
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: hand off the ball here. Just run it right at
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: North Carolina. Short passing game, I think that'll be enough.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: I like Duke here. I think they want to cover
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: this game 24-17.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Lee, what about Miami-Florida State here, this big rivalry game?
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: What's the play here?
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Well, weather could be a factor. We're kind of waiting
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: on to see what's going on. Could be some rain
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: and some winds there. Maybe not as bad as the
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Nebraska-Indiana game last week. But it looks like Miami is
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: starting to get healthy now. And Florida State, you know,
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: second half of games, they just quit. Their defensive line
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: and linebackers just don't want to mix it up here
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: in Miami. They're ready for a 15-round bout. Mark Flesher
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: looks on top of his game again. And they have
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: a true freshman running back. Watch his kid, Jerrion Mallory.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: I think they're going to pound away and wear down
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: this Florida State front seven here that's 102nd against Florida.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: the run here, and Mario's not going to hold back.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Over 120 recruits will be in the stands, so I
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: like Miami. I think they pull away 42-14.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this could be one where Norvell's seat gets even
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: hotter after this one, no doubt about it. We're talking
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: with Lee Sterling, Paramount Sports, ParamountSports.com. He's going to tell
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: you how to get his picks this weekend. Coming up
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: here in a couple minutes, he's also, as always, going
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: to pick the Panther game for us before he goes.
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: But let's talk about this late-night game in California for
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: the red-hot Demon Deacs of Wake Forest. Wake Forest right
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: around a nine-and-a-half-point favorite. Cal just pulled the upset last
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: week over Virginia Tech. Is this one where you feel
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: like West Coast could be dangerous for Wake.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Or not really?
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: What do you think?
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: I think so. A 10-30 Eastern start for the Deacons here. Cal,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: I mean... totally injured last week and, uh, they clowned
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: James Franklin and who hasn't, uh, for the last couple
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: of years, but all of a sudden they're getting healthy.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: They could get four or five starters back for this game.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Doesn't make any difference who their starting quarterback is. Uh,
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: both guys seem to be able to do the job
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: here and they have the short passing game. They run that,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: that stretch off tackle running zone play as good as anyone. So, uh,
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: We get their star running back. That could spell trouble here.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: I think Wake Forest is going to survive here 31-27,
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: but nine and a half points, way too much.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of feel you on that one. I do.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: We on the NFL side, Saints, Giants, Saints one and
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: a half point favorites in this game. What's the play here?
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Jameis Winston was cold as ice last week. And then
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: the commanders allow him to throw for almost 300 yards
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: in the second half. So, you know, he's a gunslinger.
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: If he's hot, you let him, you know, operate. He's
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: going to do a number on you here. But I
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: think that New Orleans is going to come back here.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: Carlos showed one of his worst performances here. that we've
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: seen in a while the last couple weeks. So it
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: looks like he's going to be able to go here.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: And I just think that the secondary will mix it
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: up here with their coverages. And I just don't think
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: that the Giants defense is going to be able to
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: get enough pass rush on Shug here. So I think
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: New Orleans here is going to make this NFC season crazier.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: I like New Orleans here, 21-14.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: All right, let's get to Panthers this week, and then
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: we'll get to your game of the week. And you'll
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: tell everybody, I know you've got a huge college pick
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: the fans should be interested in, but Panthers-Eagles. Now, this spread,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: earlier in the week, this spread, Eagles were the favorite.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: It's obviously changed now, Lee, in terms of the Panthers.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I think, is it Panthers 3, 3 1⁄2 now? How
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: far has it moved? And what do you think about
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: this one now?
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's up to three and a half now. So
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Eagles have lost three in a row. And, you know,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: just made a mistake. They played really, really well, deserved
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: to win that game. But you don't kick it off
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: to the returner, you know, with eight seconds to go.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: So they'll be– I mean, there was some just crazy
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: stuff happening. The Washington Giants game, what were they thinking?
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: Did they think there was a double overtime? But now
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: all of a sudden it looks like almost everyone's gone. Hurts,
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: it looks like, will not play in this game. That's
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: almost for sure. Offensive line, they've had guys retire, injured, traded,
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: no protection there. The defense stepped up, but I don't
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: think it's going to be enough here with Coker coming back.
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: So some people say, you know, bye, not your friend
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: when you're red hot. But I think this team, this
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Panthers team with all their weapons on offense, It's going
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: to be a dangerous team here. So, I think Philadelphia
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: is going to go on a long, long losing streak.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: It's three. It could end up seven, eight, nine. I
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: like Carolina big here. I think they wouldn't cover 30
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: to 20. There you go, Lee.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: There you go, Lee.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: There you go, Lee.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: Lee.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: Lee.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Lee.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Lee. Lee.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: Lee. Lee. You nailed your player prop last week. You
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: had Jordan Love over passing yards against the Bears. Do
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: you have one this week for us?
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: I do. Justin Herbert, under 194 and a half passing yards.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: And you're saying, wow, 200 yards. NFL quarterbacks should get that.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: But when they finished the game last week, four rookies
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: were on the Chargers offensive line. You just can't. You
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: can't participate and play at a high level. Like at
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: Justin Herbert, you saw his eyes. I mean, he just
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: did not want to go the distance it looks like anymore.
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: He's quit. He does have two passing games above 200,
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: but two are against Arizona and Buffalo, two bottom five
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: pass defenses here. Kansas City coming off the bye. We're
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: probably going to see an effort like they had against
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: Denver in week one. They held... Denver's next just 115
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: passing yards. So I think Justin Herbert is in trouble.
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: If they lose this game, don't be surprised. They make
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: the trade, and they just try to rebuild. I think
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: it's probably the way to go. So it's not worked
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: out there. He needs a new home. And I think
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: when you look at Justin Herbert also as a player prop,
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: let's say that he gets hurt. He's definitely not 100%.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: As long as he starts the game on a player prop,
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: The player prop is active, and he may not finish.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: They might pull him. He might go out injured. So
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: Justin Herbert, under 194.5 passing yards. Don't fall for the trap.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Definitely makes sense. All right, Lee, before we let you go,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: got to let you tell everybody, how did they get
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: your Green Bay-Dallas game of the week, and how did
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: they get your big college play and all your plays
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: this week?
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Packers and Cavaliers, how big is this game here?
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Probably a must-win for both teams here. Packers can't keep
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: falling farther back from the Vikings. Vikings might be one
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: of those teams that reaches out and tries to land
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: Justin Herbert. So that's a big game. Cowboys, you know,
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: the NFC East is a mess, so they need to
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: keep winning. If you want to get this game, just
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: call 800-400-9741. First five callers, I'm going to give it
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: to them for free. We've won six out of seven weeks.

• 9:35
  Speaker 2: a 50-unit max wager college game of the year, both
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: in the same day on Saturday. So I love the card,
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: probably the best card on Saturday the entire year, maybe
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: my lifetime. So you want to get in on this game.
