Transcript
- 0:06Welcome to Nate's daily wager. I ain't picking winners, but I
- 0:10am making wagers. Time to put my money where my
- 0:13mouth is. This is Nate's daily wager for
- 0:20February 9th, 2026. And man, what I mean that was
- 0:25just an absolute barn burner all time classic of a Super Bowl
- 0:31that we got to witness last night.
- 0:33Said nobody on the end of her today.
- 0:36It was quite the snooze fest for 3/4.
- 0:39Kind of turned into something there at the end, but really
- 0:42about the only thing that's gonna make this somewhat
- 0:45memorable was that it was a Sam Darn old getting some type of
- 0:50reclamation or, you know, showing that he's all right.
- 0:53But really in the end wasn't even because of him.
- 0:56They won despite of him not with him.
- 1:00There was a couple times there where the old Sam Darnold showed
- 1:03up, but luckily that defense is legit and kW 3 is going to get
- 1:08paid. So but anyways, the under hit
- 1:11props. Well, it all started off with
- 1:13that heads coming up and that tails, and then from there on it
- 1:17just wasn't great. But anyways, we move forward, we
- 1:21press on. No more football until next
- 1:24fall. Now we got to wait for pitchers
- 1:25and catchers to show up. So tonight I'm looking at some
- 1:28college basketball. Tell you what I'm going to do.
- 1:30I'm looking over here at Saint John's.
- 1:33You know, we took him the other night kind of accidentally
- 1:36basically because of our buddy Ken, and that the women's
- 1:40Kentucky team had done well the night before.
- 1:43So obviously you then just take Saint John's the next night.
- 1:47But they went in, you know, they took care of business with UConn
- 1:51and now here they're going up against Xavier and they're 16
- 1:541/2 point favorites. Now.
- 1:56Last time they played Xavier, it was a little closer than that.
- 1:59And I think this is just a classic market overreaction to
- 2:02them beating the number one team or maybe the number two team.
- 2:06Anyways, UConn was way up high and St.
- 2:08John's was not. So overreaction.
- 2:10Let's take Xavier and the points, 16 1/2 is a lot and I
- 2:15think there's going to be fairly high scoring.
- 2:17So even with all that, I think it's going to, you know, they're
- 2:20probably going to lose by double digits, but they're going to
- 2:22lose by 20 and 16 1/2, getting close to 20.
- 2:26And I think worst case scenario, even if they get down big,
- 2:30they'll get a back door cover when St.
- 2:32John's puts out some of the end of the bench players.
- 2:35So we're going to go Xavier plus 16 1/2 against Saint John's in
- 2:40tonight's NCAA men's college basketball action.
- 2:44See anything better than that? Pound it.
- 2:45That's my pick and I'm sticking to it.
