  Speaker 1: All systems go. Clear for liftoff. What is going on, everybody,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: and happy Thursday morning. It is the official start to
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: college football. Week one is here. My name is Bill.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: Put a dollar in front of it. You'll find me
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: on X. With me is Hamhock, part of our Ship
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: It Nation college football team. Hamhock, how's your Thursday morning
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: starting off?
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Pretty solid. I'm definitely busy trying to get ready for, like,
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: what is it, five straight days of games, but excited
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: that college football is back.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's a great transition because Ship It Nation
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: will have coverage today, tomorrow, Saturday for both the main
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and the night slate. Sunday, we should have a three-game slate. Monday,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: we have showdown coverage. And if you want to join
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: the nation, it's simple. ShipItNation.com, join the nation. I'm always
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: going to promote the all-access. This is definitely the best value.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: You get Saber Sim. You get all of the sports.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: We have the Stone, Stone 2.0. cores, slate stations, all
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: of the above. But if you're just into football, even
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: if you're just into college football, it's less than a
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: dollar a day to join us at Ship It Nation.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: It's one of the best values in the industry. And
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: it's a great community to be a part of. The discord,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: especially in college football, is second to none. Now's the time.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: We got NFL starting next week, a big slate of
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: college football. Now's the time to do it. I mean,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: if not now, when, right? let's see, we got, yeah,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: five straight days of games. That's pretty excited. Yeah, we're
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: excited too. But we're just going to jump right in.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Some pretty, oh, there's Friday. We'll start with Thursday. We'll
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: start with Thursday. We're going to do both. We're doing
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Thursday and Friday, recovering both today for you. But it's
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: going to kick off with Massachusetts and Rutgers. Just an
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: ugly looking spread. One side definitely over the other. On
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: the UMass side, I don't know how closely you look
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: at these guys. Maybe you get something from like a T.Y.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Harding who could end up being wide receiver one. Joseph
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Griffin is in from the P4. He's a transfer in
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: this year. Watson's a guy from Virginia Tech, so he's
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: got the time in P4, but he didn't really do
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: much there. But really, it's the Rutgers side here that
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: you're probably going to be looking at. Dylan Lonergan does
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: really nothing for me most of the time. But when
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: you're playing UMass, you're going to be on my short list.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Antoine Raymond, he could have been 10K. I'll play him
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: every single week. He's on the slate, you know, unless,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: you know, maybe not against Ohio State, but even maybe
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: against Ohio State. And then KJ Duff, I would argue
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: might be the best receiver in college football. If you
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: put him on Ohio State, I think there'd be a
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: more public argument for that. But Ben Black's in a
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: good spot. Jordan Houston, Logan Blake, like you're really just
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: looking at the Rutgers side, right? Is there anything you'll
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: run back here, Kenny?
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: So, I mean, if I guess just looking at this game,
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: like the automatic answers, no, but. you'll see a trend
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: as we go through these games, but a lot of
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: these games are blowouts. So I really don't like, I
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: really don't mind some UMass runbacks, like, you know, the
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: receiver still position player. Um, I mean, William Watson's even
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: cheap enough. I would not to compare UMass's offense to
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: San Jose States, but, um, you know, garbage time, if
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: he gets a couple of touchdowns at 5,300, that's, you know, doable. Um,
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: but yeah, the main interest is on the Rutgers side. Um,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: You know, we have, you know, Raymond and Duff, who
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: were studs last year. I think Duff has, like, the
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: highest– well, Jeremiah Smith. I think Duff has, like, the
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: second highest season-long receiving prop on underdogs. So, I mean,
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: he's expected to have a huge year. But I just–
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: you know, these Rutgers guys– I mean, it's obvious who's
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: going to be like the studs, but I think taking
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: some shots on the lower end guys, I have no
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: idea which one, you know, but with a 40 and
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: a half total, if they really kick the crap out
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: of UMass, there could easily be like a Jason Benjamin,
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: a Dizier Carter, who's like a backup slot receiver that
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: is viable on this slate. So, but yeah, not a
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: whole lot to add. I mean, they're, you know, returning
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: those two guys. Yeah.
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: And even at KJ Duff's elevated price, ownership's going to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: go his way. So maybe if you, if you want
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: to throw a dart, especially in those MMEs, you get
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: lucky with a guy who's going to be playing most
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: of the second half. And I think even the, the
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: second team Rutgers could beat the breaks off of UMass.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: So that's, that's a good call. I think definitely the
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Rutgers side, the run back, like you said, UMass is
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: in San Jose state. So you'd be throwing darts there
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: as well. I do have to pause for a second.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: I did not even mention at the beginning of the show,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: this one's on me. The gopher CFP run starts tonight,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Eastern Illinois, 42 and a half point favorites. If they
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: don't win by three touchdowns, I think it's a disappointment.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Speaking of a disappointment, Akron's quarterback situation. We don't really
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: know if Reese Poffenberger is going to play. He's, Already
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: played five seasons. There's a ton of online articles predicting
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: this game as if nothing is going on. But then
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: if you go on X, it's like his eligibility is
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: the only thing people care about. I will say I
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: haven't checked in the last 30 minutes if it's been updated,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: but at last check, it's still up in the air.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure if he's going to play. I'm not
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: sure if it matters. Maybe you like him at 5,500
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: for the reason we talked about with UMass. Jordan Gant
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: is a guy that we'll probably talk about a lot
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: more when Maxson comes around. Same with Sean Patrick, both dudes,
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: just a tougher matchup. And then the two guys that
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: might garner some interest, especially Marcel Williams at 4,200 Williams
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: and Mason are the biggest returning producers from last year.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: And they put up some solid numbers. So if, if
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Akron is going to be pass heavy, if Poffenbarger does play,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: Maybe you can look at these guys, especially as runbacks,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: because you're looking at the wake side for sure. Gio
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Lopez is just simply underpriced. Ty Clark is simply underpriced.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Even KD Daniels in from Florida. You could take a
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: shot on him at 4,100 as the backup running back.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Clark should get the majority, but again, blowout, more run
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: for the backups. And then in the wide receiver room,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: it's a little bit more interesting. Carlos Hernandez is a
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: likely number one, biggest returning producer from last year. Cam
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Shanks is in from Arkansas. could see the field plenty.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Antonio Meeks is just a guy who's minimum price, and
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: he's probably going to be on the field a ton.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: So it's a pretty similar approach to this game as
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: we had in the game prior.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was just like, when you were talking, I'm like,
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: this is like kind of a rinse and repeat. You know, Akron,
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: it's like, I just, I'm not, well, Marcel Williams, Kai
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: and Mason, I might play as one offs, but I'm
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: going to probably force Wake Forest correlation with these Akron guys.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: It always seems like we get Wake Forest in these
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: week one or two games. I don't know if Monday's
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: in the chat to maybe corroborate my story, but it
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: always feels like the wide receiver four or the running
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: back three just gets an absurd amount of touchdowns. I
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: really don't mind really spreading it deep with this Wake
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: Forest team tonight, but Yeah, I mean, you kind of
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: covered it. There's not a lot to add. I mean,
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: it's like I said, you know, if Clark and Hernandez
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: are turning, kind of like how Raymond and the Duff are,
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: and then, you know, you have your shots everywhere else. So, yeah,
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: not a ton to add.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, we saw it with USC last week.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: There's going to be production, even in the blowouts, even
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: if these guys only play two to three quarters. If
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: they get taken out, it's because they've already scored that
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: many points and can still get there for DFS purposes.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: a game that's a lot more interesting to talk about
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: the one competitive game on Thursday slate, uh, Colorado at
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: Georgia tech, less than a touchdown spread. Uh, it's over
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: a 50 point total. So decent number of points, competitive game. Uh,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: so on the Colorado side, Brendan Marion's in from Sacramento
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: state and he's bringing his go-go offense with him, which
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: is a two running back system. It's exactly what it says.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: It's go, go fast, keep the defense on their heels, uh,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: disguises so you can't tell if it's a run or
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: a pass before the ball is snapped. So a lot
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: is going to fall on how Colorado's personnel can adapt
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: to this new system. Juju Lewis is going to be
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: starting at quarterback, probably a little underpriced. I think there's
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: just a lot of fear of unknown with him. I
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: think his props are a little bit low, but it's,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: it's certainly part of it I think is because Sacramento
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: state didn't, throw the ball last year, but we talked
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: about it last week. They had terrible quarterbacks in terms
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: of throwing. They had Cardell Williams and Jaden Rashada, so
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: throwing really wasn't even an option. I think Marion's offense
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: will have a little bit more passing this year in
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: all likelihood. It's pretty difficult to get less. Damian Harrison
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: came with him from Sac State. He's 6'2, 205, and very,
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: very fast, so he's going to be likely one of
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: the two running backs alongside DeKalen Taylor, who was hurt
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: for a lot of last year, but he showed a
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: lot of flashes and a lot of potential before that.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: But it's so hard to predict because when you talk
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: about Colorado running backs, it doesn't get you too excited typically.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: But this is a completely new offense. And then wide receiver,
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: Scudero's a name that we all remember, a fantasy juggernaut
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: from last year, targeted upwards of 10 to 12 times
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: almost every single game. Completely different offense, different quarterback, different scheme,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: and also he was in a boot at the beginning
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: of August. He did start practicing last week, so I
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: think he's going to be healthy enough personally, but that's
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: just the gut feel. And then DeAndre Moore's in from Texas,
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: who could easily be the number one on this team
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Cam Perry's in from Miami of Ohio. He's underpriced. Joseph
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Williams had some big games last year. Zach Atkins, Deion
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: Sanders says is a NFL tight end. So there's a
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: lot of names on this Colorado team. Since this game
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: is a little bit more competitive, we can do it
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: team by team for this game specifically. But how are
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: you approaching this Colorado side with all of the unknowns?
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, when you said that thing about Zach
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: Atkins being an NFL tight end, you know, Nate Borkertscher
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: and Will Kaczmarek are also NFL tight ends. Yeah. They
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: weren't even the best tight end.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: On their team.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: That's a very good point. But, like, honestly, Colorado is, like,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: the most intriguing team to me. Like, as far as, like,
• 11:31
  Speaker 2: researching this slate, like, with the new offensive coordinator, I'm
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: really interested to see how that shakes out.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: I love taking shots on the low-owned guys in this game.
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: I think Scudero's going to play. I don't know what
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: his role is going to be, but I think he's
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: going to be over-owned just with his fantasy history at
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: San Jose State. I don't know if that production translates
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: to Colorado. I don't know if his talent level necessarily
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: translates to Colorado. I'm curious to see where his ownership
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: comes in. I think I'm going to want to be
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: under it. I don't quite know where it's going to
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: shake out. I want to think about it some more today.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: one thing I will say with this new OC Marion,
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: like two running backs were very productive. Um, and then
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: also to like when he, then this is more UNLV,
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: but he also had, um, Ricky white, Ricky white and
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Jacob Dehazy. So wide receiver, and they were both super productive.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: So there's, there's outs for these guys to be, they
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: have ceiling performances here. And, I really think that there's
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: going to be one of these guys in the GPP
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: winning lineup.
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Like, I don't know.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, we could see a sick rushing performance from
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Julian Lewis. There's just, there's a ton of outs and
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: a ton that like if you're a one 50 guy
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: like me, like I'm just kind of drooling over this
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: game and just spreading it out and taking whatever shots
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: I can. But yeah, Colorado is definitely like, yeah, the
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: most intriguing to me and the funnest to look into
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: as gross as that may sound. Yep.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: No, it's, I mean, on this slate, especially, Also worth
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: noting that DeAndre Moore was recruited to Texas when Brennan
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Marion was still there. So they had a relationship built
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: when he was in high school. Never got to play
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: for him. Now he does. So I'm sure Marion's not
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: upset to have Moore in his wide receiver room, especially
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: after the production. On the Georgia Tech side, Mendoza's back.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: We teased it in our ex-post that Mendoza is back.
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: We have Alberto Mendoza. Obviously, he's got the name. not
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: very much time on the field. There's a lot unproven.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: And we can't even really look necessarily at how Georgia
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: Tech ran their offense last year because George Gatsby's in
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: from the NFL. I think they'll still run the ball plenty,
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: but you can't expect Alberto Mendoza to do Haynes King things,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: especially in his first game. But the obligatory Haynes on
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: Georgia Tech is still there, just as Haynes is in
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: from Michigan. He was an absolute stud last year he's
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: like kind of like in that same boat as Antoine Raymond.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: He could have been priced up way more than this.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: And I still would have had him on my short list.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Malachi Hosley and Trillane Maddox are actually both listed as
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: starting running backs as well. Not an or situation. Georgia
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: tech just listed three starting running backs, but they listed
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: 14 starting positions on offense, which I don't think is
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: going to fly. The refs would probably catch that if
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: they tried to do that. So there will only be
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: 11 players on the field at a time, but, Maddox
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: and Holesley don't look too bad at the reduced prices.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: And then the wide receiver room, just a neat thing.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins is an assistant wide receivers coach. But that's
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: really probably the only familiar name in the entirety of
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: this room. Jordan Allen, Isaiah Furman, and Dalen Penson are
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: likely your three starters here at the wide receiver position.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Furman was a stud at Elon, so... Another FCS guy
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: seeing if he can do it at the P4. Jordan
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Allen got some time with Georgia Tech last year. Probably
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the most familiar, at least for Georgia Tech fans. And
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: then Daylon Penson is just a $ 3, 300 starter. So there's
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: always some intrigue there. There's four possible tight ends, but
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Chris Corbo is likely the guy. We might see Gavin
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Harris from New Mexico State. And then they have this freshman,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Kevin Roche, whose name you might hear, especially if Georgia
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Tech can handle this game. Uh, but I think there's
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: a lot to love on this Georgia tech side as well. A,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: a 29 point team total in a competitive game. Plus
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: you got cheap wide receivers and a guy like justice Haynes,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: we know is just a workhorse.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's, um, that running back depth charges. I don't,
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: it's so interesting. I don't. I just feel Jamal Haynes
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: is such a good running back, but they never would
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: turn that guy loose. And Hosley honestly looked good last year.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: I'm just so curious to see, especially first game of
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: the season. A small slate, of course, Justice Haynes is
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: still a pretty dang solid play, but I'll probably end
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: up having more Hosley than him. I don't know. Probably
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: need to make some trail in Maddox, too, if you
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: need some salary relief, because who knows? george's tech can
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: get goofy with um you know running back rotations sometimes
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: um It'll be, I don't know. I don't know if
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: Alberto is going to have that Haynes King magic of
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: just always hitting his projection, like regardless of how much
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: time left in the game, whatever the score is, he's
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: going to get that draft Kings flame. He's going to
• 16:36
  Speaker 2: get that flame, but yeah, I'm fine with Alberto tonight.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: He's probably kind of my, I don't know. He might
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: be my favorite quarterback tonight. Like for GPTs, he's kind
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: of the lower end of everybody. as far as ownership goes,
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: it's like you kind of pay up for, um, he's
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: probably the only one that's like, I mean, him and
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: Juju Lewis guaranteed four quarters. Um, there's kind of some
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: upside there. Um, This receiver room, I might one-off Jordan Allen,
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: but I'm probably just going to pair these guys with Mendoza.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: And that's how I've kind of always played Georgia Tech.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: Even when Singleton and Rutherford were there, they were probably,
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, could be more talented guys than what they
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: have now. But yeah, that's how I'm going to run it.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: But definitely still, you know, the only real competitive game
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: on the slate. So there's always some kind of hidden upside,
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: even though we're not seeing these 40-point totals on either team's.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and especially with wide receivers, there's something to be
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: said about volume of targets in four quarters. Because you
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: can play a half and score two touchdowns and get there,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: but it's on four receptions. These guys are going to
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: be out there. They could easily see eight to ten
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: targets if one of them gets a lot of the looks.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: So the reception upside is there. The volume is where
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: you get the upside in these four-quarter games. Another thing.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: probably non four quarter team, Illinois hosting UAB, the highest
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: implied team total of any of the big underdogs UAB
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: with a whopping 13 and a half points. Ryder Burton
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: is probably going to be the starter. There's a lot of,
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of oars. It's a projected depth chart,
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: you know, same deal we see with a lot of
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: these teams, especially early in the season. But Ryder Burton
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: is 6,500 underdogs. So it's a little bit harder pill
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: to swallow. If you're looking for that garbage time, when
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: you have guys in the five K's and these other
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: blowout games, um, running back some familiar names that don't
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: necessarily look familiar. Rod Robinson. The second is Roderick Robinson
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: from Georgia. Uh, Bam McReynolds is Braylon McReynolds from South Alabama.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: Uh, Rod, Rod.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Robinson is the, I think the clear number one, regardless
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: of what the depth chart says coming from Georgia. Um,
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: McReynolds was great at South Alabama, so I think there's
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: potential for him throughout the season. Maybe not so much
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: in this game. Illinois is not a team I like
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: to target a ton, even in some of the Big
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Ten games they play, at least against them, I mean.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: And then Javid Simpkins is in from Coastal. It's probably
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: going to be a mix of these three guys with
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: a lean toward Robinson. Wide receivers, there's 13 ors on
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: the depth chart. The one guy that I'm most confident
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: in is Caleb Brown. He's in from Iowa, and before
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: that he was at Ohio State. but you could see C.J. Smith, A.J. Johnson, K.J. Daniels,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Ty Sims. There's a lot of abbreviations. There's a CD
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: on the team, I believe. There's a ton of just
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: random names that are or starters. We could see all
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: of them get three targets. But on the Illinois side,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: this is maybe the most underpriced overall. as a team.
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: Caden Houser in from ECU, we know he can chuck
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: the pigskin, 8,300 in a plus EV matchup. Khalil Valentine
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: projected to start, but Aiden Lafrey, if we know anything
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: about Illinois, they'll run two to three running backs out there,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: even in competitive games. So Valentine and Lafrey both look great. Uh,
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: and then the wide receivers is where some of the
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: more egregious misprices come. Colin Dixon and Hudson Clement are
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: the one too, uh, should probably both be around 6k
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: and they're 5,200 and 4,800. Uh, Jay Sean Platt's hurt.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: So we have a min price starter in Braden Trimble
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: against UAB, a min price starter. He'll definitely garner some ownership. Um,
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: but it's just, it's a route to help you do
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: whatever you want, get some of those expensive running backs
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: if you want to play them. Uh, And then we
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: could see a guy like Ty Robinson, Alex Perry from
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: FIU is out likely for the season. So Eddie Casper
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: is another name that keeps popping up. But there's a
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: bunch of guys that we could see in this rotation, A,
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: due to injury, B, it's going to be a blowout.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: So rinse, repeat from the first two games we talked about.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: Same sort of deal for you, Kenny.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah but they're cheaper and uab's like more of a
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: i mean uab's just kind of a crap shoot i
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: feel like compared like especially receiver you know and you
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: kind of touched down that compared to the other two
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: crappier teams that we have on the slate um but
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: yeah i guess i didn't i don't know when i
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: look at that full price i can't believe how cheap
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: all the illinois guys are like that's that's a chalk
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: you want to eat right there um I will say,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: so Jason Platt, like I really was getting hyped on
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: him throughout the offseason. He's supposed to be a starting
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: slot receiver. He's on the Bolitnikoff watch list. I mean,
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: whatever that counts for, really nothing. But it's something to
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: talk about. But anyways, you know, Hank Beatty had some
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: huge gains in that slot position for Illinois last year.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: So I was really targeting Platt in best ball. And
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: he's obviously out. But Trimble at 3K... being the starting
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: slot receiver that that's your, that's your little cash gem
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: right there. Um, both running backs, I think are great. Um,
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: I also really don't mind one over the other. I
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: think you're both get over 20 fantasy points here. I,
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't play Hauser Valentine and Laffrey together, but, um,
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: you know, two of those three is totally fine. So,
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: but yeah, not a lot to add to what Bill said,
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: but the Illinois is probably your best thing for your
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: buck on the slate. Yeah.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: And they, They ran three a lot. So, I mean,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Jordan Anderson could be in for a ton of garbage
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: time work, too. It would have been Caden Fagan, but
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: he's transitioned to tight end. I would not be surprised
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: if they work in some, like, jet traps or anything
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: like that or line him up in the backfield as
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: a blocker slash maybe runner. So we could see Fagan
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: involved in multiple different ways, too.
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I forgot to mention him. That's a good call.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: It'll be interesting to see how they use him.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so that does it for tonight's slate. I mean,
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of it is pretty straightforward outside of the
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: Colorado-Georgia Tech game. You're really looking at these huge favorites,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: maybe a run back, and you get.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: San Jose State last week, it keeps coming to mind
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: because you saw flames on the quarterback, you saw flames
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: on a wide receiver, maybe even two wide receivers if
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: I'm remembering, but When the starters for the underdogs stay
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: in the entire game and they're playing against twos and
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: threes by the fourth quarter, it's not out of the
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: question that you can get to the top of the
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: leaderboard with one of these guys in your lineup. All
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: that to say, just don't completely cross off, except maybe UMass.
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: They're terrible.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: You know luke weaver luke weaver was like under a
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: half percent owned and i don't know if arnold surpassed
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: him i mean arnold kind of had a collapse last
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: week i don't know if he dropped below weaver but
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: weaver might have been the highest scoring player on the
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: drafting slate last week at 5300 and a half percent
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: ownership so it's possible.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah speaking of underdogs possibly getting there i'm gonna scroll
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: and this might be the lowest point total we've ever
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: had on a slate Oh, it went up. It was
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: at four and a half yesterday.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, shoot. It went up by 20%. That's crazy.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a huge jump. We have UTEP at Oklahoma.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: UTEP's a team that it just really can't get much worse.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: They were two and 10 last year. There's not a
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: whole lot to talk about on this side. EJ Colson is,
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know, he's an FCS guy who's up Lamar
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: Sperling was Al J. Henderson's backup at Buffalo. So that's
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: not terribly exciting. Um, uh, UTAP's best offensive player isn't
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: even on DraftKings last time I checked. Cam Thomas. And
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: I think it's because he's listed as a minor back
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: on the roster, which translates to like offensive athlete. He
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: can do, he can run, he can catch. He like,
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: he does multiple things. Uh, But he's listed as a
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: linebacker on Pro Football Focus. I think there's something lost
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: in translation there. So he's just not on DraftKings. On DraftKings,
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: we do have Cass Cheeks, the returning tight end, and
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: now his brother's in from Northern Colorado, Carver Cheeks, which
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: sounds like something you do in a sculpting class with
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: a live model. But I don't think you're playing him
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: here on this slate. You know, we talk about underdogs
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: possibly getting there. It's just tough to see. UTEP played
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Texas sort of tough last year in competitive, but That
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: might have been more of a product of Texas. I
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: don't see it with Oklahoma. With the offense for Oklahoma,
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: John Mateer's back and presumably healthy. A ceiling-type spot for him,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: even at 9K. I'm not concerned about limited time. When
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: they played Illinois State last year, he threw for 389-3
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: and ran for a touchdown as well. So they'll get
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: him tuned up against the Scrubs. Familiar names in the
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: running back room. Xavier Robinson is listed as an or
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: starter with Colorado State transfer Lloyd Avant. kind of both
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: in that mid to upper mid range, but definitely some
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: juice worth of squeeze there. But OU's running back room
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: has kind of been a thorn in years past. Torrey
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: Blaylock's back. It's a name we remember from last year
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: getting involved, but he's been dealing with a hamstring in camp.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: So I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't even go
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: in this game. And then Jonathan Hatton is a true
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: freshman who's also been beat up a little bit during
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: fall camp, but I think it's much more likely he
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: plays and still They love this guy, and what better
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: matchup for a true freshman than just to be able
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: to run over UTEP in your first career game? Wide
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: receiver room, I mean, this is just a fantasy Valhalla
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: full of names. Isaiah Cetania, I don't think we need
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: to say much. Ceiling game after ceiling game last year.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: Trell Harris had ceiling games at Virginia every time I
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: didn't play him. Parker Livingston was the darling of fantasy
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: football early in the season last year for Texas. And
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: now it's a storyline the entire season that he went
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: to the arch rival Oklahoma. And then the tight ends,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: there's two viable tight ends in this offense. Hayden Hanson
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: is a massive human being in from Florida, a little
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: bit trouble catching the ball, but a big body. I
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: think he's like six foot eight to 60. It's a
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: massive human being that can move like he's got high
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: end speed. And then Rocky Beers. I'm a fan of Beers. Kenny,
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: I think you're a fan of Beers. He's a pass-catching
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: tight end as well, just played at smaller schools. So
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: we're attacking Oklahoma here. They're juicy.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. I, yeah, I have literally nothing to
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: say about the UTEP side. One thing that we missed
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: and I like, I don't know why it just dawned
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: on me, but Livingstone does have a concussion like injury
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: right now. I don't know if he's going to play.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: I forgot to, I mean, gosh, we've talked about this
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: so much. That just shows you like how many games
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: we're trying to manage through, but yeah, he does have
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: some concussion concerns. But yeah, I mean, running back, it
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: wouldn't shock me if one of them was really good,
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: but gosh, it's just, and even like Mateer is going
• 28:13
  Speaker 2: to steal some rushing. Um, they, they'll rush with the
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: wide receivers a lot too. Like I, I'm not super
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: wild about the running next, but I love Mateer. I
• 28:22
  Speaker 2: love like maybe getting the trail Harris bomber to Satania
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: bomber too. I like beers. I like Hanson. Um, I mean,
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: I saw Elijah Thomas just drafted in a best ball
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: this morning. That's about all I know about him, to
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: be honest. But he's probably not too bad of a
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: look if he is maybe that third receiving option or
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: fourth receiving option after Livingstone. And so, but yeah, that's really,
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: really all I have to say. I mean, gosh, that
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: five and a half point team total is just something.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: It's gross.
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: It's gross. Yeah.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I was actually just looking at an article from yesterday
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: about Livingstone and it The headline is Oklahoma's Early Injury Headaches. Like,
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: he's in concussion protocol. That's the thing, though. Like, he
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: was listed as a starter on the depth chart. So
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: it just– I think it very well could be one
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: of those situations if he passes protocol he's in. If
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: he doesn't, obviously he can't. But definitely something to watch.
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's– which can be, like, I guess if–
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: fortunately with injury reports, it hasn't been as bad, but
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: a concussion is like the ultimate warmup and not play
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: injury too. So like, just be wary of Parker Livingstone tomorrow.
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: Like if we get full go, like obviously if he's
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: a full go, we have zero concerns. because it's not
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: like a knee injury or something but totally could warm
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: up not play a single snap with a concussion so just.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Be aware yeah yep and that's where I'll go back
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: to it I talk about it all the time but
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: it's because it's crucial being in a discord being part
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: of a community where you have greasy, sweaty, try-hards all
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: over socials, message boards, intern photographers that are at the game.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: Like we're, we're all over the news at ship at nation,
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: but that's definitely the huge, the one of the biggest
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: benefits of being part of a community for college football specifically.
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: All right. Toledo, Michigan state, the most competitive looking game
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: on Friday. Well, on draft Kings, I can't, that's, I
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: could rant for 15 minutes about how upset I am
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: that DraftKings didn't include Eastern Michigan and San Jose State.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: It's a mid-to-upper 50s point total, a three-and-a-half point spread,
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: I think. And both FBS football teams, and they're just like, ah, nah,
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: we saw them play last week. So, yeah, give us
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: all the teams with no data. Omit the teams with
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: data that's actually a competitive game. I would have been
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: all over Noah Kim again this week.
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's crazy.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: All right, all that aside, Toledo's usually a solid MAAC team,
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: and they brought in Mercer's coach, who brought a ton
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: of his players with him. They also have a new
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: OC in from Gardner Webb. Based on both of those guys,
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: I expect a fairly balanced offense. John Allen Richter, likely
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: the QB we'll see. Mostly a pocket passer, but we
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: really haven't seen a ton from him. So there are
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: definitely question marks, but if you think this game holds true,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: then Toledo may have to be throwing a little bit more.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: CJ Miller is one of the guys that came from Mercer,
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: ran for nearly 1,000 yards last year. He's on the
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: Doak Walker watch list this year. A little bit spendy
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: considering it's a MAAC team against a Power 4 team,
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: but Michigan State is not the upper echelon of Power
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: 4 teams. So I do think there's a little bit there.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: And then Corey Smith, who has seen Michigan State before,
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: Came from Penn State. Got some run in the bowl
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: game last year. Obviously good enough to be a running
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: back at Penn State. Definitely good enough to be a
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: running back at Toledo. And then the pass catchers, we
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: have Ajitay Dabbs, who's also from Mercer. Was a stud there.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: Rico Bond, a stud from Lindenwood. And then Anthony Simpson, unproven,
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: but has been at Arizona and Michigan.
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: So....
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: You know, bigger school, just not as much field time
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: versus these guys that haven't had a ton of success
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: at smaller schools. And then on the Spartan side, we
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: have Alessio Milivojevic who actually played really well in the
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: back half of the season last year. I know he
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: torched the Gophers, um, when he played them last season, 7,300, uh,
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: speaking Noah Kim, Eastern Michigan.
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: I did notice FanDuel. FanDuel did something right. FanDuel did
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: something right. Uh, including that game on there. Um, but
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: he's kind of in that same boat as Noah Kim
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: last week, kind of in that mid range in a
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: fairly competitive looking game. And he's going to be just
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: a little bit overlooked because of the ceilings of these
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: more expensive guys, or you go down to the cheapest
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: of the cheap and hope for garbage time. Uh, Michigan state.
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: One of the guys I think is underpriced is Cam Edwards, uh,
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: running back in from, uh, Yukon. Um, Fitzgerald, the new
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: coach at Michigan state has already said he expects a
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: big season from him. Like this could be the best
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: season of it. Like what else are you going to
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: say as a coach though? I don't think he's going
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: to have a very good year. No, he's not going
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: to say that, but Cam Edwards does have the talent.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: He's got some pass catching upside nearly a thousand yards
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: at Yukon last year. Um, even with Joe Funiano throwing
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: it all around the yard. Uh, and then Marvis Parrish
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: is in from Western Kentucky. Also a pass catcher also
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: has that upside the wide receiver room, uh, Chris McCray
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: is the highest returning producer and at 4,800 for potentially
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: wide receiver one. Uh, it's a solid value there. Rodney
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Bullard expected to be wide receiver two and he's 3,100
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: starting receiver, nearly mint price. We've already talked about that plenty.
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: The third wide receiver is up in the air. This
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: is where you could roll the dice with some of
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: these cheap guys. Um, Charles Taplin and Bryson Williams both
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: got some action last year. KK Smithson from Notre Dame,
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Frederick Morin from Michigan. You'll hear the name Braylon Collier
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: in all likelihood. Jaden Savory is a downfield threat at
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: the tight end position who's likely going to start. We
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: could see Brennan Parachuk, but they love Savory.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of different ways you can go with
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: this game, and if Toledo can keep it close... This
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: is– I don't think it's going to be like Georgia Tech-Colorado,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: but there's potential here for this to be a close
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: competitive game.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure. You know, I really haven't done a
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: lot of analysis on this game yet, just working through
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: the week. But, I mean, Toledo has what– yeah, they
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: probably have the biggest team total of the underdogs on
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: the slate.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: They are a little high priced that being said, they
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: should be behind. So I don't mind some pass catcher
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: run backs kind of a, you know, I know I've
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: kind of, I'll be getting repetitive there, but, um, yeah,
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: Michigan state. So Nebraska, gosh, I might be wrong on
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: this and I shouldn't be wrong on this, but I'm
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: pretty sure Nebraska hired Toledo's defensive coordinator as our defensive
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: coordinator and Toledo's produced some really good defensive backs the
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: last few years. Um, You know, that'd make me a
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: little weary, you know, of attacking. That's just like one,
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: you know, being devil's advocate against Michigan State's passing game.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: But Miliosevic, I think, is super underrated. Like, last year,
• 35:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, the only Michigan State game I watched was
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: when they played Nebraska. And Toles got benched, and Miliosevic
• 35:50
  Speaker 2: came out and slung it. Nebraska had a pretty good
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: secondary last year. Terrible rush defense. We had a pretty
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: dang good secondary. I'm really interested to see what he
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: can do here. There's not any really rushing he can add.
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: but it's totally within the realm possibilities for him to
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: get 303. Um, that might be kind of a ceiling though.
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: I don't, I don't know, but I'm definitely going to
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: be taking some shots with him like in double stacks,
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: like gosh, Emilio Savage McCray and like savory stack honestly
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: sounds pretty nice. Or even running Emilio Savage Edwards McCray
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: and just trying to eat up everything from Michigan state.
• 36:24
  Speaker 2: I don't mind that they're priced fair enough. Um, Yeah,
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: this is one of the sneakier spots, just kind of
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: with the unknowns beyond McCray and Bullard. Yeah, should be. Probably, yeah,
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: this one might be the most interesting game on the
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: slate to get into. I don't know. Gosh.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and another thing, too, like I just– I was
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: thinking back to the Gophers game from last year because
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: that was a game he had 300 and a touchdown,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: but it was Rodney Bullard. So maybe that's something that
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: we see. The chemistry is already built. So, you know,
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: a 31, it's a, I mean, honestly, a really good
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: looking stack. So just, yeah, we'll probably like this Michigan
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: State side when all is said and done. Yeah, they're cheap.
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: I don't mind it.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: This will probably be the best overall football game to watch.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: The rest of these games, I'll enjoy watching for looking
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: at what the rest of the season brings. Speaking of,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: Miami at Stanford, a team we've already seen this year
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: in Stanford. Miami, I think they're going to win this game.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: That's not a strong stance, but I do not mind
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: looking at this spread and noting that Miami has to
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: travel from Florida to California. With that said, Darian Mensah
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: is now the quarterback at Miami. We know he put
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: up huge numbers. Speaking of huge numbers, Mark Fletcher put
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: up some huge numbers, but at 7,500, it's not a lock,
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: I don't think, especially because they have Marty Brown back.
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: They have Gerard Pringle back. Jordan Lyle has had some
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: off the field issues. I don't know if he's going
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: to play is what a fall starting running back against
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: Notre Dame last year. And now he's fourth on the
• 38:27
  Speaker 1: depth chart, even when he's healthy. But we could see
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: a strong mix of these guys and just looking at
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: the pricing 7,500 and then a drop to 5k and
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: 4k is it just gives you pause of Fletcher. Fletcher
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: is obviously a stud. I'm not going to argue that
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: this is strictly a price play. And then Malachi Tony,
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: maybe the best player in college football. Cooper Barclay came
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: with Mensah from Duke. We know that he was a stud. heavy,
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: heavy target last season. Mensah's got a lot of chemistry
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: with him. And then there's names that we just recognize.
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: Joshua Moore had some huge games last year. He's definitely viable.
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: Elijah Lofton has potential. Abandrevious Jacobs is in from South Carolina,
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: who was a stellar player in terms of South Carolina.
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: And then on the Stanford side, I don't know. They
• 39:16
  Speaker 1: could Davis Warren had a big game last week. That
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: was against Hawaii. Micah Ford is typically a huge fantasy producer. Maybe,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: you know, he's priced at 6K, which is, I think,
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: maybe the cheapest he'll be all season. It's also the
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: toughest matchup he'll see. But with a 12-point... team total,
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: you're looking at one, maybe two touchdowns to go around
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: if the total holds. And then in the wide receiver room,
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: Benji Blackburn is one guy that you might want to
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: look at. He was targeted the most last week, and
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: it's a tight end. Easy throws for Davis Warren to make.
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: But then we also have Caden High and Nico Brown,
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: who are still, as of last night's injury report, still questionable.
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: So that could throw a wrench into the rest of
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: this wide receiver room. So it just feels yucky looking
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: at these guys, especially with the current unknowns.
• 40:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah. It's like, are we going to see like what,
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: you know, Miami has kind of been weird the last year.
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: Cause you know, they had cam ward, they slung it
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: around everywhere. They had an all right running game. And
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: then throughout the last season, they just, they felt like
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: they couldn't find their identity on offense. Like with the
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: exception of Tony and then throughout the playoffs, like they
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: just controlled the ball, grinded it out with Mark Fletcher. Um,
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: it almost felt like they saved him for the playoffs
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: like last year. Um, They really did a lot of
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: Tamar Brown and Pringle throughout the year. And obviously, I mean,
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: Lyle would be in that rotation. I don't think he's
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: going to be playing week one. But I love kind
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: of taking shots on Brown and Pringle. They're not going
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: to project worth a crap, but I could just see,
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: you know, if Miami does get up, brown and pringle
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: paying off those those cheaper um cheaper price tags um
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: i mean i don't even remember last year i think
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: it was the old miss miami game like the last
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: drive of the game after fletcher had you know dominated
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: and been great smart brown had there to finish it
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: out like miami does weird stuff like that we could
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: also see them be like more like when now they
• 41:08
  Speaker 2: have mensa who's more of a gunslinger than carson beck
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: i'd like to think um maybe they throw it a
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: ton more i don't i I mean, this is like
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: a big spread, but it's not huge. It's not like
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: we're seeing like a 38-point spread here. It's on the road.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: There's a chance this could get a little closer than
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: that spread appears. I mean, Miami traveled to Cal and
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: almost lost a couple years ago. Should have lost to Cal.
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: It's kind of interesting. There might be some fans. I mean,
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: the more competitive, the better for Miami's fantasy outlook. So
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: there's definitely some shots I'd like to take and almost
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: like playing Miami with different game scripts. Like, do I
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: want Mensah, Tony, Barclay, or do I want like a
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: Fletcher and Pringle? Like if they blow, beat them really
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: badly and just control the clock.
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: And then Stanford, like obviously we have a really solid
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: one week or one week sample on them. You know,
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: you kind of touched on, you know, Blackburn, Ford's obviously
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: a volume hog. Really, though, I don't– I mean, Miami
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: should have a pretty dang solid defense. I don't mind Blackburn.
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: I don't know how much forward I'll get. I think
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: I'll leave Davis Warren's pretty good last week in week zero.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: And then, yeah, and obviously– I mean, the wide receiver,
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: if high and brown play, like it's just even more
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: of a question mark. So it's– Stanford's super cut and
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: dry to me. Like there's a couple guys that you
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: might take shots on and then you can just throw
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: the rest away. Yeah, it should be interesting.
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a little bit different than the other blowouts
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: we've talked about. It's a different approach than just maybe
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: having a run back on the underdog or hoping for
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: garbage time. There's a legitimate chance Stanford can keep it
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: somewhat competitive for even if it's a short period of
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: time just to extend those Miami starters a drive or
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: two longer. And yeah, this is actually a good point.
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: Thursday games, we went over early for anybody showing up
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: midstream or just recently we went over Thursday before this. So, uh,
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: definitely go back and watch covered like a blanket.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: Our last game on draft Kings. Look, look, what's peeking out.
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: We have the fan duel only game down there just
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: all by itself and all lonely. It's a sad, sad day. Uh,
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: but we have Fresno state at USC Fresno, another fairly
• 43:33
  Speaker 1: significant dog. Um, It'll be interesting to see how Fresno
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: performs in front of a crowd of 18 people if
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: we have a repeat of last week at the Coliseum.
• 43:43
  Speaker 1: The one thing I'll say, USC didn't blow San Jose
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: State out of the water. They definitely controlled the game,
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: but I do think Fresno State has bigger guys up front.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: The trenches will be a little bit different of a
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: test for USC. I think they'll still handily win this game,
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: but we could see a little bit more of a
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: dogfight for a little bit longer. Fresno State Christian Martin
• 44:08
  Speaker 1: said he would never play football on the West Coast,
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, oh, Fresno's on my radar.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: Fresno caught him a check, and he's not even starting.
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: Jaden Mandel's projected to start. You play him for the
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: same reason you played Weaver last week. I mean, not
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: very many of us played Weaver. Play him for the
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: same reason we wish we would have played Weaver last week.
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: The running back room's a little tricky because it's likely
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: going to be running back by committee. between Rayshawn Luke
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: and Donaldson. Luke is likely the number one guy if
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: you're looking for the top running back, but you do
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: get a little bit of a discount with Donaldson, who
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: has proven himself in the past. The wide receiver room,
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: some familiar names from last year. Josiah Freeman was the
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: number one last year, and he's got a ton of
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: target upside. And then Ezekiel Avett is returning as well,
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: and he's in the 3Ks. But you're just looking at
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: value and potential here. just like we saw with, I
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: feel like we said San Jose State more this week
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: than we said when they were on slate last week.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: On the USC side, this USC could get a little
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: bit interesting because Jade Maieva, I don't know that we
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: need to say a ton about him. He looked really
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: good against an inferior opponent. King Miller and Wayman Jordan
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: likely in more of a split this week as Wayman
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: gets back to 100% if he's not there yet. But
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: they're both priced up. It's hard to play a split
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: without knowing which one it's going to be. Maybe if
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: you're doing MME, you take some shares of either guy.
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: But Wormley scored a touchdown, I think. Did he score?
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: He was one that scored maybe even before anyone else.
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he might have. I think he scored the second
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: touchdown of the game. Yeah.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: So that's college football at its finest. And then the
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: wide receiver room. maybe the most interesting room in this game.
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: Trent Mosley obviously had a huge game last week. Dixon
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: Wyatt had a great game as well. Mark Bowman played
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: really well. It just, it didn't show in the stat book.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: Like he looked like a starting tight end in the
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: big 10 last week, but the wrenches this week come
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: with to no kinds who is listed on the depth
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: chart as an or starter, just like he was last year,
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: last week. Corey Sims ended up seeing the field more
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: than like booby Feaster. Tron Baker is also listed as
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: an or guy on the depth chart. Terrell Anderson was
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: out last week. I did not see him on the
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: depth chart this week, so I would presume that he
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: is out again. I think he's listed as doubtful on
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: DraftKings already. So we're not expecting Anderson, but Hines could
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: really throw a wrench into this wide receiver room. How
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: do you attack a team like this where there's, and
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: I guess game overall, when there's question marks like that?
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and so what I think, so this game blocks
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: an hour after initial lock, and then alongside... So, I mean,
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: if we did– so, I mean, I guess if we
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: know for certain that Hines is 100% wide open, he's
• 47:09
  Speaker 2: probably got the highest projection. I don't know. Mosley looked
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: freaking awesome last week for a true freshman. Like, I
• 47:17
  Speaker 2: think it's going to be hard to keep him off
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: the field if he continues to play like that. So,
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: it's definitely like– I mean, if Hines is out, I mean,
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: Mosley's got to be a top wide receiver play on
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: the slate. gosh, I don't know. USC was just so
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: volatile last week. I'm just scared of all of them.
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: Like I'm the GDP and me like makes me want
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: to not take shots on Mosley. Um, just because of
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: the volatility with the USC rotations. Um, you know, and
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: that kind of leads into the running backs. I'm not,
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: I would think like maybe Miller and Jordan get a
• 47:49
  Speaker 2: little more of a workload this week. Um, especially like Jordan,
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: who's kind of ramping up. He had some, uh, injuries
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: he dealt with in the off season, um, coming back off, uh,
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: was an ACL, I think coming back off some injury
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: from last year. Um, But, yeah, I really am not
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: super interested in fighting with that rotation. And I bet
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: you can guess what I'm going to say about the
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: Fresno State guys, but I don't mind them as runbacks
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: with my Ava. So, you know, after last week and
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: seeing how early USC pulled some key players, I'll probably
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: have to have some stacks for Fresno State. Now that
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: I'm just kind of talking through this out loud. Yeah.
• 48:33
  Speaker 2: At least there's another game with this one to if
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: you really need to change your lineup, if for some
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: reason Tyrell Anderson was on the field with his helmet
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: on and everything, that wouldn't put it past USC a
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: bit for that to happen. There's at least some flexibility
• 48:50
  Speaker 2: with the USC game, so that's good.
• 48:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's a good point. The lock time for
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: that game, same time as kickoff for the Stanford game,
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: both teams on the West Coast at It does give,
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: like having three other teams instead of just one other
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: team that's an underdog to have that flexibility is clutch.
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, on FanDuel, this is not an updated game yet,
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: so ignore the names, but this is just what it
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: looks like, what we could have had on DraftKings, a
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: competitive game, a fairly high total, a field goal spread.
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: And we saw these teams. So, like, if you're playing FanDuel,
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: you're still probably looking at Noah Kim, Nick Devereaux, these guys.
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: Benson Prosper is a guy who had a big game.
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: And then on the San Jose State side, obviously Luke
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: Weaver's a starter. These are just out of order right now.
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: Jabari Bates, we talked about him last week. Maybe that
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: wasn't the spot for him, but this week he's got
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: a much more favorable matchup. So this is a game,
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: if you're playing FanDuel, take a look at on Friday
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: because this has a lot of fantasy goodness and you're
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: not going to see as much coverage of it because
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: it's not on the DraftKings slate. It's going to get
• 50:08
  Speaker 1: half of the coverage or less I would presume across
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: the industry.
• 50:13
  Speaker 2: Right. And yeah, this is definitely like the, would have
• 50:16
  Speaker 2: been like the funnest game to target on the DraftKings slate.
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: So I'm guessing they didn't put it on because it's
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: such an early start time, but you actually can play
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: San Jose State Eastern Michigan on DraftKings at a 6.30
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: PM showdown slate. I just, I don't know. They tend
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: to do that if there's like, like even with the
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: Ireland game, last week they'll leave that game off early
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: i don't know like what the reasoning is behind it
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: but i guess that's probably why they did it but
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: you can't i can't believe they have a showdown slate
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: for it that's awesome.
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah and i i mean in hindsight i'm not upset
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: they left that ireland game off of the main slate
• 50:53
  Speaker 1: of draft right right kind of it was a fantasy
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: stinker yeah i mean it was great you you had
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: some success with that last week though didn't you.
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah yeah i did win the showdown morning contest
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: with the line up the left $ 4, 200 on the table.
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: So that tells you how gross that game went. Yeah.
• 51:11
  Speaker 1: The contest for this EMU showdown I'm looking at now
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: are disgusting as well. All right. Well, that covers Thursday
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: and Friday. Again, if you, if you joined us late,
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: we covered Thursday first. We, we have everything up for Thursday.
• 51:24
  Speaker 1: Now it just got activated live during the stream on
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: ship at nation.com. So you can go over and get
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: a membership, even if you just want college football, like
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: I said, less than a dollar a day. And one thing,
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: that is new this year that I want to show
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: off is the Stone 2.0. This and the OG Stone
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: talk to each other. So we have our colors. We
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: have these guys color coded. So if you play cash
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: and you only want to look at the guys we
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: have listed as cash consideration, there you go. If you
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: want to look at the guys that are, if you
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: have a cash lineup built other than two players, see,
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: this is the great part. If I want to build
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: a single entry lineup, but I don't want it to
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: be completely cash guys, I can put in, let's see,
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: get some cheaper guys here. There, I have five guys
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: that are cash viable. Now I want to look for
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: some of those guys that have high ceilings, and I
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: can look at who fits this lineup the best. Or
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: if I just know I want to play these five
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: guys and don't care who the other three are, optimize lineup,
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: it fills it in for you. This is a new
• 52:30
  Speaker 1: feature we have across several sports on our website. If
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: you're not sure who's injured or not there, look at
• 52:37
  Speaker 1: the injury risk. These are the guys currently marked and
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: that gets updated. It's fluid. Uh, Tambo got into the
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: college football streets last week, our fearless leader, uh, posted.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know anything. Don't know anything about college football,
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: but I use a stone 2.0, use the markings and
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: built a lineup. And he took down, uh, the $ 50 contest.
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: I think it was, but it's, it's just such a
• 53:02
  Speaker 1: useful tool to have everything right in front of you.
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: You can sort by projections, you can sort by ownership. Um,
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: you can even look at the team totals. All right,
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: who has the highest team total? And this is current. Again,
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: we update this throughout the day, especially leading up to
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: the slate for any major changes. So, um, a super,
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: super useful tool. And it just comes with the main membership. Um,
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: or obviously you'll see if you go down, it'll show.
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: You get the Stoughton 2.0, Stone 2.0 with both college
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: football memberships. Kenny, any other final thoughts on the slate
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: before we get out of here? We kept it under
• 53:38
  Speaker 1: an hour, which eight games. That's good. I think that's
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: a good.
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: Timing. I guess it's one thing, and this is kind
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: of just this week as a whole. This is one
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: of the rare– rare times of the year where we
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: get college football, like not competing with NFL or a
• 53:57
  Speaker 2: lot of other sports. So these contests are going to
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: be as big as they're going to be. Like, I mean, if,
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: you know, if you're a little hesitant about college football
• 54:06
  Speaker 2: and signing up, like if you signed up this, like tonight,
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: today for just like a month pass, and then you're
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: going to move on to NFL for the rest of
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: the season, you're going to get all that value soaked
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: up in like these next five days, because there's so
• 54:17
  Speaker 2: many games, so many slates, so many good tournaments that, So,
• 54:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, if you're just like interested in giving it
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: a shot, this is like right now is the time
• 54:25
  Speaker 2: to do it. That's the only thing I guess I,
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: you know, really had to say, but that's not very
• 54:31
  Speaker 2: often do we get, you know, 30K to first with
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: these type of games.
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And just looking at this weekend, the $ 20 contest
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: is 100K up top in college football, which is not
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: typical as we get later in the season. Even the
• 54:46
  Speaker 1: night slate, the $ 15 contest is 25 K to first,
• 54:51
  Speaker 1: which is, which is a good number. So there's, there's
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: big contests throughout the weekend. I would, I would anticipate
• 54:57
  Speaker 1: some pretty big contests on Sunday too, just given the
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: teams that are playing, you know, we'll have blue blood squads,
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: power four squads. I mean, like the biggest spread is
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: going to be Wisconsin Notre Dame, but those are still
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: two very familiar teams that people have eyes on. So yeah,
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: Like I said, Ship It Nation's here throughout the entire weekend.
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: But that's going to do it for our Thursday and
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: Friday breakdown. We'll be back tomorrow at 1230 Lord's Time Zone.
• 55:27
  Speaker 1: That's the central time zone for you new guys. We'll
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: be breaking down the Saturday slate early tomorrow afternoon, so
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: be back for that. But we're going to sign off
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: here with our rule number one, the same way we
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: do our ode to the big guy. James' rule number one,
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: college football is fun. Enjoy the sweat. Enjoy building your lineups.
• 55:45
  Speaker 1: Just be thankful that we have college football on our
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: TV and we have five straight days of it this week,
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: which is excellent. Enjoy watching college football. Let's see some
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: green up top. Let's go out there and ship one
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: for the big guy.
