EPISODE 111: COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS BACK! WEEK ZERO BREAKDOWN · You Don't Know Ball Podcast

• Isaac Rowe: They're probably already there trying to get used to the the you know, the weather, the ch the sleep schedules, all those things, you know, so ⁓ as those factors are not really shown on TV, but they are definitely felt as a team is being ready to play. What's up, you don't know ball nation? The three amigos are back. ⁓ well, that wouldn't be three then. But ⁓ We're all here without Isaac. No, Caleb's not here. Isaac's here. ⁓ yeah. As you can tell. Cooler Isaac is here. ⁓ also another Isaac. We went into the multiverse to find Bidget Isaac. Man. No, I'm kidding. No. What does that make me then? Just scrawny out. No, no, you're you're back. You're high school Isaac. Sure, hair Isaac. All right, that's fair. That's fair. But ⁓ no, it's ⁓ We don't really know what we're gonna talk about today other than college football being back this weekend. ⁓ we have a few games in a slate and we're we are excited to start up our pick'ems again this season. So it's gonna be a very interesting year. Wow. That's back to back that's back to back body dysportion body dysporphia jokes. ⁓ we into we ⁓ no he did the Dion toe. ⁓ ten Ne was and ten does down. But ⁓ if anybody knows who this jersey is, you do know you know now. So ⁓ if you get right in the comments, you get brownie voice. But ⁓ We'll fly you out to get on the show until you know who this player is. That's right. Like the easiest question. That's right. Maybe you'll even get a picture of our feet together. Yeah. I'll eat ⁓ all eight of them. Yeah, yeah, maybe. ⁓ But Jack, you're the champion of the last season. How are you feeling about this season? Feeling pretty good. I think I'm more prepared more this season. Obviously not this week, but I'm remote. It's week zero. Yeah, I think that's a that was a really good question. How how are how are you feeling on the opposite end of the spectrum coming in last last year? You know, I I wanna I'm going in for a bounce back, you know. I really wanna, you know, show my ball knowledge that I have improved, which Kinda did, but you know, it's fine. I'm not beyond my, you know, that nine, that nine jury. You can call me nine yet. No. No. I feel good about this season and I'm excited for it to be back. College football is always a great time ⁓ to have, especially after a long summer of ⁓ anyways. Caleb, how you feeling about this year's pace? I you know, I felt I feel pretty confident but also a little bit nervous. I think I did get pretty lucky last year to even be in the running for first place. And I was in first place for the mo ⁓ for the longest time last year. Yeah. And then Jack snuck up at the end there. We did a for some reason we did a weep where I swear to God we predicted like thirteen games. ⁓ you got like eight of ⁓ right and I got like four of ⁓ right. And that's what propelled you back into first place. Didn't the Army Navy game also end up playing it too? It was like the final game. It was I think our record might have been tied. It was. Yeah. And I didn't want it to end in a tie and you picked like the obvious pick. And I was like, well, you know what? I've been bright. They got big Navy, didn't they? Yeah. I I was like Army it was one. I could exactly I think it was no Army no did Navy win? I'm gonna check it right down. Because I thought Army was the better team last year. Dude, look at how like deep this whole split got. Like We were we were in that shit 'cause like we you could scroll way down. ⁓ I put all the bowl games in there too. But this was where is that? Yeah, this was it right here. So December tenth, twenty twenty five, I went with Army. I think Alex, you picked Army too, but we might have coin flipped for I don't know if you were getting I don't know. They only won by one point. Dude won the championship by one point. I was saying they that game was pretty close to what I remember. So it wasn't like it was a biggest ball out thing. Well mini gamble on it. So that was my Super Bowl. Yep. That was both our Super Bowl. I lost by one point. But anyway, like I I enjoyed making like the graphic for you and everything. And ⁓ it was cool that, you know, it really is any of our games to win. Or like, you know, like if I was predicting who would have won it last year at the start, obviously I'm gonna say Isaac because he probably watches the most college ball out of all of us. I feel like you watch a sneaky amount that I didn't know. Like you I know you watch most of Bama's games, if not all of them probably, right? At work I pull them up. Yeah. On all of Bama's games? No, probably not all of ⁓ Are you I I I feel like Bama's usually ⁓ majority of the time that you'll find them on national T V. Dude. I mean, that's just because of the brand. But so it's easy to find them. ⁓ Most of the night too much. I watched most of like the night games. Yeah. Like whoever plays at night, like the Penn State Oregon game is probably the first go to game. One of the best games I saw from last year. And then like UCLA doesn't play at night, so like I'll watch them with like the morning slate and then like whatever team is playing at night, normally I'll watch, but you're not really getting like the nitty gritty of like the SEC really because there's just so many games you miss. So it's like, I don't know, I was just thinking Isaac was gonna win it based off You know, 'cause he he probably just knew more ball, but then I threw in all these games and the Mac and like the C USA and stuff like that. So that's that makes it that makes it makes it a lot more fun. Like the ACC games too. Like I see this Duke Virginia game, the championship, Duke won it. I was the only one to pick Duke. Also ⁓ We're punishing Isaac today. All of his picks for week zero are gonna be coin flips. Because he's not here. Sometimes that helps though. Yeah, ⁓ yeah, honestly, yeah. I looked up a coin flips and I was like, hi. Yes. I think one week I went like five for six on coin flips. ⁓ I rem yeah, I was about to say somebody always went perfect. I don't I don't know if we had ⁓ anyone do it ⁓ I went p five for five here. That was nice. ⁓ Isaac had a five for five week. Other than that though, UCLA screwed us all over there. Of course. Dude, there's a lot of red at the start here. We gotta be better, boys. That's ⁓ that's so much red, but we got better towards the end. We try, we try. So why don't we why don't we just go ahead and get into ⁓ these week zero games that I put down for us? There's so obvious ones I just didn't write, but these ones are all moneyline games. And we're gonna start with one that we started with last year. UNC. You know, I think we we had a UNC game to start last year. Yep. Versus TCU. In Ireland. And it's in Ireland. And believe it or not, UNC is favored in this game. Against the Harvard kid? ⁓ In Ireland too? In Ireland? The Harvard Heisman? The Harvard Heisman, man. He's totally a better quarterback than Hoover. This is Bill's third year there, right? ⁓ yes two. I think it's his third or second. Yeah. I feel like this could be a third times the charm sort of thing. And I think we've seen him open both of his past two seasons on a loss. Yep. So I'm gonna say it's kinda like a three strikes you're out situation for me. I'm thinking. I don't know. I for some reason I'm really feeling UNC. TCU they got their the Harvard kid does have a lot to prove in this first game. Yeah. They're in a completely different country. I feel like Bill's gonna have this team ready more than ⁓ the TCU staff will. So with the NFL experience. Yeah. Yeah. who knows? Maybe that won't matter. But you also have ACC versus a pretty decent big twelve team too. So I don't know how well that'll match up, but ⁓ I'm feeling UNC. Yeah. I mean you bring up a good point about Ireland is that it the time change. So we're gonna be watching at noon and they're gonna be playing at like I don't know six maybe. DM yeah, seven. So see I damn it's trying to avoid it. No, but it's yeah it's a completely different time change. So they're gonna have to ⁓ they're probably already there trying to get used to the the you know the weather, the cha the the sleep schedules, all those things. You know, so ⁓ it's those factors are not really shown on TV, but they are definitely felt as a team is being ready to play. So ⁓ you bring a good point up against ⁓ for Bill being the having a fellow experience and everything, but you know, last two seasons, Bill's experience really hasn't really helped him. And Jordan Hudson, his girlfriend, is more hindered than helped. So I don't I can't really trust Bill to be like To win especially at the opener, but a season opener. Yeah, season opener, especially at at a different country. So I would like I'd want to take TCU here just because I feel like the Harvard kid is I've seen a few clips of him and TCU is like a real is a legitimate team. I do agree that Isaac has a good point that TCU is a good team. And ⁓ yeah, I think they're gonna be ready to roll and I'm ⁓ I'm gonna commit to my pick to TCU. Valid. Yeah, I'm gonna say I don't I don't trust Bill about as far as I can throw him. He's a pretty stout boy. And his NFL experience hasn't meant shit at UNC. So You're picking USE. I'm going TCU. All right, Isaac. Let's see what you're picking. Quite a few mess about TCU lately, but I think they got this game. Yeah. Well that yeah, we talked mess about ⁓ but we were talking about the whole SEC compared to Heads will be UNC, tails will be TCU. Isaac gets ⁓ Isaac picking UNC. That's really interesting. Man, Isaac I thought Isaac would no ball. Isaac for our sake I really overwrite. ⁓ my god, that's so funny. Yeah, this game is ⁓ August twenty ninth. Okay. Next game. Pretty interesting. Good ACC matchup, I would say. One that is kind of I I feel like this is a trap game to start the year for Virginia, but ⁓ yeah. NC State at Virginia. What do y'all what do y'all think? Interesting game. I I know, that's what I'm saying. Like NC State, I feel like always has really strong starts. Yeah, they do. And they I I've s I saw last year, I think they upset someone when they were away. I think it was Oregon State. Yeah. I think that was a pretty I can't remember where it was. I know what you're talking about. And you're right. And NC State is not a team to slouch on either. Not at all. In Virginia, yeah, Virginia was really good last year, but who it that was last year. So I could go either way with this, but go ahead, Gil. I'm still thinking, I love I love NC State's team. ⁓ and I remember there was there was one time I was sitting here, I think we were filming, and I was like, ⁓ NC State's quarterback entered the transfer portal and I Isaac are you was no, we those are guys who are staying. And ⁓ their quarterback was staying. I think his name is CJ Bailey, if I'm not Yeah, sounds right. ⁓ I'm a big fan of CJ Bailey, but also Virginia, if they still have their same quarterback as last year, this could be a really great QB matchup to start the season. But for the simple fact that the Cavaliers, I love their home field advantage. And for NC State to go on the road and have to face Virginia's home environment, I feel like that's gonna be a lot to overcome, especially for game one. And also I I like Virginia. I think they're a really good ACC team. They're gonna be in contention this year for that two, three, four spot. Yeah. They played in the championship last year. I mean, yeah. Yeah. They lost. Exactly. So I mean, they're gonna want the they're gonna wanna start they're gonna have more desperation to start off on a better foot than NC State, I think. So Due to desperation's sake, I'm gonna go with Virginia and yeah, you know, just take the I think the swart pick here. I think I'm gonna join you on that. I think Virginia, you know, Virginia's d Foam Stadium's gonna be rocking that game. And you could just see ⁓ I just think of that last year down against Florida State and just seeing the ⁓ yeah, that was formerly and that pretty much that wide receiver from Florida State. almost got killed being how many people were coming at him in two point five seconds. Yeah. But ⁓ yeah, I like Virginia's team. I like Virginia's head coach and I think he really turned that program around because Virginia really wasn't anything until he got there. And ⁓ right. It's kinda like the it's it's a theme with these ACC schools because we've seen the same thing with Duke. Like both of both programs made the championship game last year. So yeah. ⁓ which Duke making the Championship game was nuts. Winning it was nuts. Winning it is his own thing, but why were they in the college remote playoff, man? ⁓ yeah. Unbelievable. And and they were in they were in consideration if you want if you looked at it, they were in consideration. Okay, Florida movies. And Jackson, Virginia. Yeah, so it wasn't even given. That's what the hell is happening. No. ⁓ anyways, no, yeah. I like Virginia really w really ⁓ good win here for them and stuff seeding off hot and maybe get back to the championship game. Yeah. Don't be surprised if NC State pulls this one out though. Right. Because ⁓ I feel like this is gonna get this gonna be a game that's all offense. And when it is all offense, give me the own team. Yeah. That's that I think that's my main argument here because I I don't trust either of their defenses to anything. ⁓ let's see Isaac thinks heads is gonna be Virginia. Tails is NC State. What's he gonna get? Let's see Isaac's argument today. ⁓ you got Virginia. You got Virginia. You lucky dog. Dang, Isaac and I matched it on both our picks so far. ⁓ so we're all rocking Virginia. That does scare me a little bit because historically this has only worked out one time. Yep. And it was UCLA. Yeah. Out of all the teams. I'll take it. ⁓ it's a good, it's a good it's fine. It's all good. We have a 'cause I'm a Brown fan. I mean, about as much logic as the Alex to put into it. So that's fair. ⁓ all right. So in game number two on our board here, we all pick the same one. Let's see if we do the same here. Hawaii at Stanford. Now, this is I will start with this one because I watched this game last year and Hawaii beat them. Yeah. And I I like Hawaii. I I think they're gonna go into Stanford, do it again. They had some kicker for learn how to. play football on YouTube beat them. So so I'm not even kidding. Like I I like Hawaii's team. I like I hope they have their Crescent quarterback because that yeah I'm pretty sure he was like five eleven, you know, kind of Kyler Kyler Murray Kite Moxie, you know. So I watched I think I watched their first game from last year and they did win. Yeah. It was against Stanford. ⁓ was I again against Stanford? ⁓ shoot. Okay. Well they're c they're coming to Stanford And I think that's the only reason I'm gonna rock with Stanford is I picked Hawaii last year to ⁓ not beat Arizona but cover the spread. Yeah. They didn't even get close. So I think I think the travel really is hard for this team, especially when they're coming to ⁓ a different c a different school. They're facing a packed twelve team in Stanford. ⁓ or wait, no, maybe Stanford's in the A C C Stanford's in the ACC. Hawaii is ⁓ Pac twelve. Are they packed twelve ⁓ they are Pac twelve now? That's right. Well, I I think I feel I'm feeling Stanford here to be honest. I I just think that flight and the you know, week one. I feel like there's really no wrong picks to go here. Week one you kinda gotta go with your gut. I'm gonna I'm gonna go with Stanford here. I think I'm rocking Stanford too. I like their home field advantage and I just don't think Hawaii's gonna upset ⁓ twice in two years. Micah Al ⁓ Alato. That's him. Yeah, yeah. I do re recall that name. Yeah. Kid is I hope that's the same kid as last year. I mean maybe should it should be. He's his name sounds very familiar. ⁓ let's see. We're flipping a coin for Isaac. The favorite team is Stanford, so Stanford will be heads. Hawaii will be Tails. What's your picking, Isaac? And he's picking Stanford. So Alex. Hey, I'll be the lone wolf. This is a perfect lone wolf pick for Alex here, I think. You were very passionate about Hawaii. I'm gonna work my shirt in what you were saying. So I I am a warrior. I love the pick. I love it. Love the pick. Got to. I'm gonna get a jersey with that kid's name on it. I think they make ⁓ They definitely make him. Could Bradley buy it? I could I when I go there I might get ⁓ get him to decide it. What's it? ⁓ this next game I think is also really interesting. Memphis at UNLB. UNLB is favored by three and a half. and I don't know. I was very high on Memphis last year. Yeah. ⁓ they were ranked for a decent bit there towards the end. ⁓ especially with that win against South Florida that knocked them out of the playoff contention, which I thought was awesome. UNLV though, they're a team I feel like who's made some sneaky moves to get better, I think. They have like these like have been or forgotten quarterbacks all the time. Like I mean Alex Ourji. I think I think he's still there. He's still there. He didn't win the c starting job though. So he's still there. He's still rocking the number I don't even actually know he's rocking number one now. Okay. So Kaepernick. Oost is gonna be in the end zone. Cap ⁓ Kaepernick went to UNLB. I know. That's right. But in like two thousand six, bro. That's all right. He's a great NFL quarterback. I mean, we did make the same argument about Aaron Rodgers going to Cal or whatever in that one predicting video. ⁓ what are you guys feeling here? 'Cause I I I literally have no idea. This could be a toss up, but I think I I think I do know who I'm gonna pick actually. I think I'm Margot Memphis. They're usually one of the best group of five T Us so Yep. They they historically have been really, really good the last few years and I think they got that dog in hello. They definitely do. But I'm not going with Zentus. I'm going to UNLV. I think they're gonna be a scary team to play against this year. Well well I don't care. No. ⁓ I I I hear I hear some things. Dan Mullen is still the head coach there. So I think they have a pretty good solid team that, you know they're not gonna be like the best team in the country, but they're gonna they're gonna upset some A C C teams or whatever the conference they're playing. I don't know. Mountain West. Yeah, or the Mount and they're but they're gonna be in contention for Mountain West. But no no, they have some chance to beat some power school teams. So yeah, I'm gonna ro roll for them for this game. Do I keep making this home field advantage argument? I don't think I really can with UNLV. I ca I I treat UNLV Stadium like a neutral site. 'Cause every time I've seen them play, it's like their stadium's empty. And I'm pretty sure they play in Allegiant Stadium where the root play. Yeah. pretty sure they knew which is like I mean with how many empty seats there are bound to be hard to fill for a college team yeah it is. I feel like UNLP has no aura either. I feel like they have literally no aura which is tough to say. ⁓ they also have a good writing program. I'm probably gonna apply to but that's besides the point I think Except my boy. Does it I know that's like fuck dude do I really get my my my future alma mater alma potential future alma mater. That I haven't even applied for yet. or do I rock Memphis? I haven't picked in a way team yet, so I'm gonna go ahead and rock Memphis here. ⁓ like Jack was saying, they typically one of the best group of five teams, and they're they're gonna have momentum coming in from last year. And like I said, with UNLV, they probably made some sneaky offseason moves and they got vets, but with a team as good as Memphis that is gonna need to start off on the right foot and win this game to really, you know, have they they need their the record's gotta be pretty so they can't be taking losses like this to UNLV. They're gonna do anything remotely close to what they were doing last year. All right, Isaac's turn. All right. Heads will be UNLB, Tails will be Memphis. Let's see what we get. Tails, Isaac is rocking Memphis. And Alex is once again. You know it's mine. You gotta start hot air you gotta start gold. You gotta stay in the middle. Yeah, Alex, this could turn out to be really good for you or really bad. Really bad. Long season, long season. Hey, I was I started in last last year, bro. I finished last last year. I think I started in last last year. I went one for six on week one. Long season, long season. And you know the one I got right? Like UL Monroe versus Saint F St. Francis or something like that. It was like the spread was like twenty eight and a half points. the last game on the slate, this was the reason I picked this one is because it was the last game that was remotely close. The game the week of. It's a Maction matchup. Not really, no, because Sacramento State is coming to Eastern Michigan for a classic matchup. Your favorite players, man, that team. I know, I'm gonna mention them. Give me Eastern. My boy knows. All right. Jack is rocking EMU. All right. ⁓ you know, I feel like Eastern Michigan's another one of those schools. with less aura than UNLB. Absolutely. ⁓ I don't know who is going to play. They got the Grey Field though. They do have the Grey is not but they ain't Boise State. They ain't Boise State. They ain't Boise State. Like I Isaac showed me a video. He I I guess Isaac practiced there for a walkthrough. And he s he like took a video of the stadium. And honestly, it was not that impressive. Yeah. Like there's a D two school that we practice in in as I think it was in Yeah Wesley. But Their sh their stadium was way cooler than what that will have would be. Max probably ain't gonna know. Dude, Max probably should help him build a stadium that damn. They can do shit over there. But is it enough for Sacramento State to walk in there and win? Hell no. Yes. Nothing good ever came from. Actually, nothing good ever came from Sacramento. I didn't roll with Sacramento here. I don't trust Eastern. Eastern was the worst Mac team in the c the conference last year. That's last year, man. ⁓ wait, no, there's one more, I think. There's no. Well, Sacramento State's not a Mac. I thought you said we had Maction. Well, I for some reason I put Mac and then I realized Sacramento State was in here. I s I still think I think they're on the bubble like North Dakota State, like like in that column tier. ⁓ like FCS school? Yeah. Well not FCS, but D like D two. Like really high D two or like Yeah, like you're saying, like FCS school in the North Dakota State's an FCS school. ⁓ well then yeah they're FCS. Not anymore. They're de they're FPS now. Are they? I thought so. Thought North Dakota State. That's where Trey Lance is from, right? Yeah. Is North Dakota State a FPS school now? Do I really w rock with tech? What conference are they? Not with us. I don't know the switch. Yeah, I think it's brand new. Yeah. As of July first, twenty twenty six. How they're supposed to win national championships, man. They're not. Man, that's why I'm lost. ⁓ I have I have a couple of family members who went to Eastern graduated from there. So I think I'm also gonna rock with them because I think they're just the safer pick. They're at home. It's a night game. There might be some aura there. You know, some freshmen going to Eastern Michigan. They all pile in there from the first home game. True. Let's see if we can give them some balls. Let's see if we can Max Krasny himself is there. Damn. Yeah. Dude, he talks about him all the time, but never goes back. Yeah. See, now here's where it gets interesting. What is Isaac gonna pick? Heads is EMU. Tails is Sacramento State. You know. And it's happy. Sam. I'm sorry. I can't I can't screw him over. I wanted to say it was just tails. We should have done like ⁓ I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Isaac, if you wanted Sacramento State, maybe help me listen to this and be like, shit. Yeah, you'd be like, What the fuck? No, but I Isaac honestly picked a good slate. He's got UNC, Virginia, Stanford, Memphis, EMU. Isaac and I all picked the same ones. Isaac and I are the exact same. That's crazy. Yeah. And it's your phone that picked it. Yeah. He got he got heads four out of five times. Coincidence. Which would be the favored team. But Alex is rocking TCU of Virginia, Hawaii, UNLB, Sacramento State, probably the ballsiest pick so far of year. Yeah. ⁓ Jack's rocking TCU Virginia, Stanford Memphis Memphis, EMU, and then I'm UNC Virginia. Memphis and EMU. So yeah. ⁓ you know, put your put your ⁓ Put your seat belts on, kids, 'cause it's about to get frickin' crazy here in week zero. ⁓ I'm Drive King with my line. Yeah, right. Make your ticket with my line. Ooh This is not a deal. It's already on there. Yeah, I'm not changing, I'm sticking with I'm no worries. What's the win, dude? ⁓ my god. Watch Sacramento State have like a JMU year. You're right. See, dude, this is this is why I love this because it forces us to pay attention to games we would never pay attention to. Like Sacks Day at EMU. Like, dude, who cares the other That game might have me sat on Saturday night. You never know. I might be watching it. Sad Eastern. Yeah. I might go. Yeah, it's possible. I'm not doing anything Saturday. Go out to Eastern. Go out to EMU. Do play it? They ha they host Boise State this year, which I think is EMU? No, no. Western Western. ⁓ No, they don't. Yeah, they host Boise this year. That'd be a fun game to go to Yeah. Have you guys seen that they're gonna host Michigan at an outdoor hockey game? Yeah. Yeah. I I'm pretty sure I'm gonna I want to, but forty bucks a pop. But dude, that would be so sick. Outdoor hockey game. No, they they already released them. For forty? Mm hmm. Really? Yeah. Well, they might be on SeatGeek now and they might be more expensive, but 'cause they're having games shot up after they won the Navy. ⁓ yeah. Like eighty bucks to go to now. ⁓ actually? Well in the bigger stadium now, I bet it'll be easier to deal to they're still awesome now though. But yeah, maybe when they need the bigger stadium. ⁓ dude, I yeah, I forgot. That downtown area is almost done. So that'll be that'll be really cool to see actually. Maybe their basketball team can get some aura. I did like I did like their gym though. Their gymnasium for basketball is kinda cool. Never been in it. It's like bigger than you would think for a Mac school. Like if that thing was packed out, it would be pretty freaking loud in there. Their basketball stadium? ⁓ yeah, I like their basketball stadium. Yeah. Now it's old, but it is very old. I mean when I was when I went in seventh grade, yeah it was old. I would go with my grandpa and we'd get the worm cashew nuts. And they lose. Yeah. The game we the game we went to they lost as well. I the most fun part about that game was Connor getting picked to do like a half time. ⁓ yeah. Like they lined up like five Meyer shopping carts on the on the court. And Connor they like told Connor, like, All right, you gotta make five balls and five shopping carts. Here we go. He's probably something he was he like underhanding them and he ended up getting it. He won't he won like Something I forgot what it was, but he was it money or is it just like a prize? I think it was some sort of like gift certificate to use at the stadium or some shit. Like Dom that's yeah. Damn it. Fifteen bucks to use at Spirit Chat. Fifteen dollars. There was like a quarter of a sweatshirt. ⁓ Yeah, it's funny. Well, there's also one more game that we were not gonna pick for it, but I think USC also plays this weekend and they're playing San Diego State. ⁓ we could do a s we could do a spread. Yeah, we could do a spread. I don't know. I could add it. But ⁓ I don't think that game will be anywhere near which is I'm kinda grateful that you didn't put it on the thing 'cause it's not any close and it's gonna be like a free beat. ⁓ Right. It's just do we think San Diego State's gonna kick their ass or No, the US State. San Diego State's gonna get their ass or yeah, otherwise. Do we think they're gonna kick their ass that bad or ⁓ USC but say you stay for a paw. I think it's this I think that's what the team is. US football. Just look out USC football. Look at that shit. Schedule. Schedule. ⁓ San Jose. San Jose, sorry. ⁓ god, that's even worse. Yeah, San Jose though, they got I don't know. I'm curious what this short drive. Yeah. ⁓ USC versus San Alright. ⁓ my god. This is crazy spread. ⁓ like twenty-eight and a half. Thirty ⁓ thirty-eight and a half. Yeah. I I do we think they're gonna win by thirty-eight and a half points. ⁓ yeah. I think they're gonna ⁓ score more than thirty eight than forty five. ⁓ yeah, we tied the game on USC. Do a little research. Yeah, actually. ⁓ San Jose San Jose State football skin time. ⁓ you know, all ⁓ god, they got their ass kicked last year. San Jose's going to USC. This is a prove year for USC. I think they're really gonna come out and put their foot on their throat and keep it there probably the whole game. The only way this ends up being less than what a thirty seven point game is if they rest all their starters for the entire second half. Yeah. And last year's score was fifty six to twenty eight. That's pretty damn close, dude. That's literally like two points away from Yeah. Damn, dude, they picked a good one. This one's gonna be a sweaty one, I bet. ⁓ I know. This one's gonna be a sweater. USC I I've been hearing that this is the best roster they've ever had. No, that was in twenty twenty three. ⁓ sorry. What the hell? They didn't play last year, but they lost no, they have close game against Hawaii. They only lost by one against Stanford, and they lost thirty eight to seven against Texas. Okay. Fernando Savo. Yeah, don't you think USC is better than Texas that year? I've been hearing this is the best team USC's ever had, so I'm gonna take this spread. I'm just gonna say they're gonna cover. Yeah, they were three and nine last year. I think USC's gonna cover as well. Isaac ⁓ wait, he can he can spin the wheel for that. He can do a coin toss. But cover means less than thirty-eight and a half. No, cover means USC's gonna beat them by more. I think that's better. Okay. That twenty twenty three swords like Now if Isaac gets tails this time and He gets it right, I'm gonna be pissed. I'd say tails too. He's do he got tails. So he is taking San Jose to cover this worst of his so far. ⁓ but who knows, that might end up being a good thing. Who does San Jose wins? I saw that. Did you see Drusky's new skit? ⁓ huh.

He's got he's in like a nice like house, it looks like, but ⁓ it's just drug overdose? Like ⁓ it's just He looks rough. Like he needs to go get a wellness check. Or wellness and wellness check needs to go and get that help. I think he needs a little bit more than that. Yeah. Well, I mean with a wellness check they can like get him the help that he needs, though, right? If they go to his house and see that he's pacing around filming videos on his phone. I don't even think ⁓ wellness check by now they they saw the video they might as well just send this send the national guard yeah for real yeah but anyway that that was ⁓ the first round of predictions so I'd say pretty good.
