  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, at your favorite time
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: of week. You get to download the crazy shoots, You
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: get your something cold to drink, go for a drive,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: go for a run, sit in your backyard. I don't
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: give a damn. You just get to talk college football
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: and enjoyed some time with Mark and Scott Scotty. How
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: the hell are you? Brother? That was a crazy ass
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: week last week. I enjoyed every second of it.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Man, that was a great week. What a way talk
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: about a great ending? Lsu ol Miss Man? What a
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: ball game? Uh feels like Old Miss was the better
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: football team, just didn't execute. But man, that's what happens
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: when you play on the road at night and the
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: sec while stuff happens. I'll tell you this, Nu's myer. Man.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: If you like quarterback plays, that end zone view that
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: they showed of his touchdown to tie the game is
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: exactly why playing quarterback is so difficult and the average
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: bear can't do it. He throws that ball to an
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: empty spot in the field and his dude covered but
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: gets open by the time he gets to the ball.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: That's knowing your players, knowing the defense, knowing where they're going.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: What a great job. You're not just throwing the dudes.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: If you wait till the dudes open, you're late and
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: you're gonna get it picked off as just a great read,
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: great anticipation, ballsy throw on fourth down. Can't talk enough
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: about it. And then and then the rep. I also
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: want to talk about Old Miss. They they and overtime
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: nothing went right for him. I mean, absolutely no, stun
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: they didn't. The only thing they could do running the
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: football the whole night was Jackson Dart on that counter
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: and I stunned they didn't run it when they got
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: behind the chains right there because he was getting it.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: Only ran it like three times a game, like twenty
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: yards every time.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: I was kind I was kind of surprised about that too,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: to be honest with you, because I thought, personally, when
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: you looked at the LSU game, what my biggest takeaway
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: from that was is that the game was too big
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: for Old Miss. They just kind of catered. They let
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: it unless you hang around you're at home. But then
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Cayden Durham they couldn't get the running game going for LSU.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: And I still think that's one of the better offensive
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: lines in the country. But nesmy are being forced to
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: push the ball down field, and you know they'll say,
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: oh he's a gunslinger. I don't think he had much
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: else he could do.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: But I mean defense is good.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: It's really good. And I honestly tell you, like, don't
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: sleep on LSU to to not make a run it
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: when in the SEC because I saw some things last
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: week in LSU that I was I really really like. Well,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and I might tell you the right off full miss
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: either though, but I'm just putting it out.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the thing on old Miss and this twof on point,
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: totally agree with you on LSU. The injury to Perkins
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: shows two things. They had him in the wrong spot.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: How in the world that makes kid hadn't been on
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: the field? Holy smokes, that guy, Oh he crushes people
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: and it's just always in the right spot. But what
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: he is is a leader. It's that it's just that
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: adrenaline that those guys play with every week because it's
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: all they got. They they bring that every week. It's
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: who they are. How that guy wasn't on the field
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: is asinine. I mean that just you're judging too much
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: on talent. You find a way to get that cat
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: on the field and you move an athlete like Perkins.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: Somewhere else they may have they may have improved by subtraction.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: And that sounds crazy because Harold Perkins is one of
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: the five most talented pass rushers in the country. Uh
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: So that that sounds nuts to talk about. The flip
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: side about about Old miss that I think is gonna
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: be fascinating is that they have lost two games. They
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: frankly were probably the more talented football team, which I
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: think you see when you've got this much, how true
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: of a team are they? And everybody keeps talking about
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: the offensive line being the problem. There's a lot of
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: mistakes being made too. There are other there are assignment
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: bus there's things things not going well, and I think
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: it is I think it is fascinating to see how
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: is this team really gelling with all the money and
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: all the players that they bought in. How cohesive of
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: a unit are they? And more importantly, what does that
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: turn into as because look, they still play Georgia at home,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: and they still play and as good as that Oklahoma
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: defense is, they're not as bad as they look Saturday.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: With that many people healthy, I mean, with that many
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: people hurt that they're going to get some of those
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: guys back before they go to Oxford. That defense is
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: good enough, I think to dominate that old Miss run game.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: So I am fascinated to see they could lose that game.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: They certainly can lose to Georgia. Now they could win
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: both those games easily too, So I'm fascinated to see
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: what happens to them. Let them lose one of those games,
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: and where does this team go. That's what I'm going
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: to be fat because this is a team that had
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: their sights set on playing in the playoffs and another
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: loss they're not getting there because that's who they've lost to,
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: is not going to get them there. And it's more
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: importantly how they've looked and the weakness of their non
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: conference schedule is not going to get them there. When
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Wake Forest is the best team you played non con
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: you got major problems. So I think there are a
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: lot of teams in the SEC that can get in
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: with three losses. This is not one of them. Georgia
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: can get in, Texas can get in, Alabama can get in.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Those schools can get in on Miss Camp. That's my
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: honest unless there's just total carnage. You texted me something
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Saturday and I do not want to get past this
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: point about about how much this is reminding you of
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: two thousand and seven that you have no idea who
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: the best team in the country is because you watch
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: the first half of that USC game and they totally
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: dominate and then look awful the second half. It's like
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: they went to sleep and then then State comes out
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: and which, by the way, what about the kid? What
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: about forty four? Penn State got a love warn. I mean,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: talk about a great player, just moving him all over.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: If I'm Heisman balloting, I've got no doubt I've got him,
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: and I have Ashton. I would have Ashton gent winning,
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: I would have Travis Hunter. I'd have Travis Hunter and
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: I'd have Warren. They'd be my top three. I love
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: watching all three of those guys play.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, he's a I think he had seventeen catches for
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: something stupid like one hundred and forty four yards, But
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: he has snaps a quarterback. He's running the ball, he's
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: throwing the ball. It's obvious that Franklin's figured out he's
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: got a mismatch with this kid, and he's gonna use
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: them anyway he can. And I think it's smart and
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I also think that game that second half last week. Man,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: we've been hearing about Ayler's that have been stayed for
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: a year and a half now and we've never really
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: seen it there. Their offense is a lot different this
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: year than it was last year. I'm not single being
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: back would be a bigger thing, but other than that
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: wheel route in the corner for that touchdown at the end,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: and he wasn't a big effective on the ground, but
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: I thought Ayler's was a dog coming down, you know.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: And it's like I said, if you start looking at
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: how things are boiling right now, figuring out where you're
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: gonna go. I mean, I've said this time and time again.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: In two thousand and seven, we looked up at one
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: point and Kansas and South Florida were ranked in the
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: top five in the last week of the season. I mean,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: y'all may have started hearing people talk about this now
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: and normal four letter word radio. But in the normal
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: last week of the season, LSU fucking lost and they
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: won the national championship.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: You know, yeah, because there was complete carnage.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: You had, you had West Virginia and Pittsburgh we're playing
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: in Missouri. Was I think may have been the number
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: one team in the country and we were about to
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: see a West Virginia Missouri national championship because that's only
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: when two teams got in. And so, yes, I think
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: there's still a lot of this stuff to flush out.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: I think that the we talk about parody like in
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: the NFL, but the depth on these teams is just
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: not as big. And so I think coaches are just
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: now kind of and and some of the rosters. I
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: think coaches are just now starting to figure out what
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: they got. And that's from top to bottom. I mean,
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: look at Willie Fritz, at you of Ah. I mean
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: he switches quarterbacks and goes on the road, and just
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: I mean the terrible team you have aged they're not good.
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: They beat these ship out of TCU two weeks ago
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: after switching quarterbacks, and I will I be surprised that
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: they win three or four more games. No, I want
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: it all. I mean, doo Pavia Bandy. I mean, that's
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: a problem. If you have to play those guys the
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: rest of the year, they're a problem. The Service academies
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: who both played Notre Dame, that's a problem.
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: Who's gonna hire Jerry kill I know he's old he
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: may not want another head coaching job, but how good
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: of a job is that guy going? Because let me
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: tell you something. I like Clark Lee. This is not
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: too Lee. But if you think all this turnaround is
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: not because Jerry, a lot of that turnaround is not
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: because Jerry kill is on this offense, I ain't you're mistaken.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: That guy is such a hard those guys, those kids.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, you saw Papa on the interview talking about him,
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: talking about he died for him. He'd take a bullet
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: for him. That's what he brings out kids. And I mean,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: this is a dude that was so sick with epilepsy.
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: He was having seizures on the sideline because he was
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: grinding so hard. I mean, that guy loves football. He
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: is the epitome of toughness. I mean, I think it
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: was epilectic seizures is what it was. But whatever it was,
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, the dude's literally falling out on the sideline
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: coaching hardcore. That I love that guy, and I mean
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: talk about it. And he may be in such a
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: great situation at Bandy. There's no expectations. He's an assistance,
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: so the pressure's not on him. He's probably making more
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: money than he's made since he was at Minnesota. So
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: I mean it's you know, it's such a big deal.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: He may stay there till he retires. But what an
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: awesome scene in Vandy. A boy think about LA. I
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: mean what Lincoln Riley, I mean, those dudes. You've got
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: three losses now LSU seems like it was four seasons ago.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, that is wow. And none of those losses
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: have been They've all been close games, two of them
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: on the road. Then the melt down at home against
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: a team that I obviously has felt all year was
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: a playoff team. They're certainly looking like it in Penn State.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: I think that's their best loss. And they blew a
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: lead at home, but uh, because they should have won
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: both those other two games. But but n it's a meltdown.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: And and look, they still got a tough schedule in
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: front of them. It's not like there's not another loss
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: or two out there for them. So fascinating to see
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: what goes on in LA. If Lincoln Riley goes seven
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: and five, you know.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: Hey, don't there's a couple of jobs. TCU is gonna
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: get dykes. I think maybe looking at the.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: Doors, dikes is done. Yeah, I think get it done.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: If I'm TCU he's been on that staff, I might
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: be like, hey, Jerry, you want to come retire here
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: in Fort Worth because we can take care of you.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Bro It's like, get it done. Oh and let me
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: throw that. I know we had a lot of games.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: It's we're it's Thursday morning as we record this. If
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: you haven't watched recapture, passed it down. But you got
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: to be fucking kidding. Meat at the NCAA gat cam
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: rising another year of eligibility. If that dude comes back
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: for his eighth year, I'm done. I'm done. He was
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: a statue last week and just got shelled in that game,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: and then he gets hot. I'm like, you let it go,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Brot years old.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: I mean, is he gonna have a doctorate by the
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: time he gets out of school? Hey? Look the we
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: what we can't get away from. I mean this even
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: made bad beats on ESPN. Is the close to that?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: In to that Kent State game. Look, there are games
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: you picked like I was looking at last week. We
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: had a rough league. We did hit our underdog parlay
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: though baby the uh uh, but scratched around and got
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: a five and six out of it. But I mean
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: that that UNLV loss was a terrible beat. I mean
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: they were up the entire game and just mailed it
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: in kick a field. I think they scored three points
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: in the second half. I mean it was and just
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: Utah State just kept whittling away scores like a minute
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: left to beat the cover of soa pissed and then
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: nothing and then cal same deal. Pitt's got to lead
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: the whole game, covering the whole game, and it's like, ah,
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: we got this game. One cow scores late, Boom covers
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: and then finally Kent State converting the shortest of two
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: different conversions. For those of you that didn't watch this game,
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: they're going down. Ball State's covering easy. They go down,
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: score a touchdown to get the cover. It's late in
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: the ball game, like two minutes left. They convert a
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: fourth and twelve and like a third and twenty on
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: this drive just basically hail Mary's. They score, but their
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: defense is so shitty they give up like an eighty
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: yard touchdown run. Ball State goes back on top. Now
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: not done with the miracle covers. They convert a fourth
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: and twenty four and a third and nine on us
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: on that last drive to score with like ten fifteen
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: seconds left in the game to get the cover. I'm like,
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: you got to be kidding me, because when when ball
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: State ran for the touchdown, I'm like, wow, I got
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: out of this with a win. That was about to
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: be the ultimate back door cover. Oh not done yet.
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: It was.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: It was so gross exact quit watching it. I turned
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: it off at halftime. I was like, I've got other
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: things I've got to watch at this point, and it. Yeah,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: it was just absolutely terrible in that one. But hey,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: as we recorded, like I said, Thursday More, October seventeenth,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: by ninety of Central Time, Minor Nation Baby getting the
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: win against FIU in l Passol last night. L pass
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Hole could be the new center of football out there
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: in Texas. Don't look down on it, man, Scotty Wallden,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: the coach out there. I think that guy's like thirty
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: seven years old. He gets so excited when he wins.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: So kudos to those guys. But yeah, I think there's
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: still a lot of football to be played. I mean,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: there's teams nobody's even talking about that are undefeated, that
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: have great schedules in front. Look at pitt Pit. Yeah.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I mean they've got a great opportunity in front of them,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: you know, and there's still some upsets to be had.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of name brand bias that's
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: still at the top when people are projecting who's gonna
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: get in because there's gonna be some hard carnage coming
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: through in the SEC UH and the A SEC. I mean,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: if if you told me we were going to get
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: a Miami, a Pit and a Clemson, I'm not hating it.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: I mean people forgot Georgia week one, put Clemson in
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: an old school sleeper round. It just just crushed them out,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: kill their spirits.
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: I have to talk about this too. So they were
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: guy and look one's an x NFL guy. Well both
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: are x NFL guys. But we're listening to them on
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: serious XM. So it's not they don't certainly not that
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: they don't know football. They've forgotten more than I know.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: But they were talking about, is could George you make
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: the playoff with three losses? And I am laughing because
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: their reference point is you're going to get a you might,
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: You're very likely gonna get a second ACC team because
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: if you get one loss, Clemson, and I'm like, you
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: need to stop right there. If you think Clemson's getting
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: in over Georgia unless they win the league, you you
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: weren't watching the first week of the season. There's no
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: question george is the better football team. They beat them
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: like they stole something. I mean, like an old school
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: Southern mom catching their kids stealing something. I mean it
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: was bad, I mean not that bad, just beat down.
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: And I don't want to hear they're getting in over
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: at three loss Georgia because if they are, we have
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: a broken system and they need to scratch it again
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: because at the end of the day, the leagues are
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: not equal. They're not equal, and people need to keep
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: people need to keep that in mind. Man, the top
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: of the SEC's got some good team they're gonna go
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: because let's not forget Bama went on the road at Wisconsin,
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: will whack them. You got Georgia just because they may
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: end up with two and three losses because the league
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: is good. It is a little Let's I forget Vandy
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: whacked Virginia Tech. You know, let's not forget that some
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: of the teams in the upper half of these conferences
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: have been getting drilled so I don't, you know, I
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: don't want to forget that the top end of this
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: league is really good, and they're all playing each other,
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: and they're all playing each other multiple times. So I
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: don't look that. I think there may be multiple SEC
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: teams that end up with three losses. Do I all
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: think they're flawed teams? One hundred percent? It's got to
• 16:38
  Speaker 2: be a talented team to be able to pull out
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: their flaws, and most teams, most teams aren't good enough
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: to do that.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I it's I don't know. I think this season's fantastic.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: I'm looking more and more forward to it. I still
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: think there's upsets to be had.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: I mean me too.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, you don't think the boys from Oklahoma State,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: who were the pick to win the Big Twelve with
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: all their returners and Gundhi's mullet, can't find somewhere else
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: to drink besides TGI Fridays Tomorrow night and go up
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: and beat the boys in special underwear.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: With by J.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: No, they can pull this thing off. But do I
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: also have a BYU ticket to win the Big Twelve
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: now that I beted at twenty five to one, Yes,
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: I do, because I think it's goin a shot to
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: get there. So it's with five, six, seven weeks left
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: in most of these schedules, I am fascinated. I think
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: we have so much weird left to happen that it's
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: getting harder to even figure out who you're betting at
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: this point because I think these games, man, it's it's
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: must watch every Saturday.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Every game. When I go back every week, when I
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: start losing, and and there's games I lost some How'd
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: I lose this game? How did I miss this game?
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: That's bad? Rutgers last week was all a scheduled deal.
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: I blew that. That's on me. You got to look
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: at what they've got, what they've got coming. They caught
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: them at the perfect time on the road, and that is,
• 18:03
  Speaker 2: you know, Whiskey walked in there at the perfect time,
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: and I think just the opposite this week. I think
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: UCLA's walking in there at the wrong time, you know.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: And so just as a as a nugget to that,
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: but I think you do with the lack of depth,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: schedules are more important than everything. Like you know, Missisippi
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: State's fan base all fired up. Look how good they've
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: played against Look they haven't quit they're fighting. Levy's doing
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: all they can with a cap gun. But that's still
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: a terrible football team. I mean, they're a terrible football team.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Those teams aren't playing hard, they're not getting their best shots.
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: Do I think State could upset somebody if they come
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: in there and don't give them their best shot, You
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: bet your ass. I do one hundred percent, because they're
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: still swinging. They hadn't quit on Levy at all, And
• 18:49
  Speaker 2: there's kudos to that. And that quarterback's talented. I mean's
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: a talented young kid, and so it's gonna be They're
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: gonna be a fun team to watch over a couple.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: It's gonna take Jeff Levy three years. That team's noty good.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: So do I think there can be upsets like that? Yeah,
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: But man, don't misinterpret. There's still some bad football teams
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: out there. And and and I think you do have
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: to watch scheduling because State caught both of those teams
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: at the perfect spot on their schedules to make it
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: look better than it was. So study schedules if you're not.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: It's more important now than I think it's ever been.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's I agree, And I mean that's why I said,
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: I think there's still some hard spots left on some
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: of these teams team schedules ahead, and some black spots
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: that are out there.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: So one thing I want to point out, I read
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: a note because we talked a lot about this, and look,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: we got one of them. We got one of them
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: wrong last week. But I do want to talk about
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: this that the teams covering traveling the more than two
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: hour time slot are are are not covering at a
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: seventy percent pace. Those games are and you just got
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: to pick them right. And there's a couple this week
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: and I got my own. So excited about the week,
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: let's get rolling.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: Mark Scotty, not a good week last week. We were
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: several games under five hundred. We did hit a money
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: line underdog parlay, which is always fantastic. I think it
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: paid out with a couple extra bucks in my pocket.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: So try to pick some winners this week as we
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: dive into it, we'll look at tonight's games. We'll roll
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: all the way down. With that being said, folks, let's
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: get this thing rolling. I'm excited. Uh Thursday night, Scotty,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: you got two games in here. You got Georgia State
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: at Marshall eight and a half. The number here, Marshall's
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: laying at. Marshall's getting a lot of the tickets, a
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: lot of the steam over unders fifty one and a half.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: I don't really have to play in this game. I
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: was low on Georgia State to start the season. They've
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: actually played much better than I anticipated. This Marshall squad,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: I couldn't. I couldn't figure out anything about it if
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: I had to. Second game we've got though, BC travels
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: to Blacksburg. This is an interesting game. I love Boston
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: College and despite getting seven and a half, Thomas Castellanos
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: nicked up a couple of weeks ago. He's backing this one.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: Predicted totals forty eight and a half, which is pretty
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: low for a college football You know, Virginia Tech has
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: not been somebody that I think can cover by margin.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: And if you haven't watched Boston College play yet this season,
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: they're kind of a mismatch issue because Castellanos isn't a
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: big passer, but they run a lot of inside zone
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: read a lot of motion. I think Bill O'Brien's done
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: a heck of a job putting an offense together that
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: makes this thing work and so I'm going BC here
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: against INN, said Man to get me a cover at
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: plus seven and a half on Thursday night.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this game, I candidly have been all over the map.
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: I originally really liked Virginia Tech as I looked at this,
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: but then I started to studying. This feels like a
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: low scoring game, and that means it's seven and a
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: half maybe a touch too much. And O'Brien's done a
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: nice job. Thursday night right enter, Sam Man's gonna be
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: fired up. It does feel like a low scoring game,
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: so it feels like seven and a half's a little
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: too much. This also might be a chance to sneak
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: you in a first half under for the Yeah on
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: a Thursday night, because I do think there's gonna be
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: a lot of emotion in this game, you know, a
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: lot of a lot of heat excited about it. So
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: I'll tell I'm with you. I'll ride with BC plus
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: seven and a half. It really got down to the defenses.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: I started looking at yards per play, rushing yards, et cetera.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: These teams are just too close for a for a
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: touchdown and a hook for me under seven.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: I was kind of leaning Virginia Tech, but when it
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: got popped and it went over seven and a half. Scotty.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: We may have to put a little three game money
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: line underdo our parlay together here in a couple of weeks,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: and if we hit it, we're gonna buy tickets to
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: go see Metallica play at Lane Stadium this spring because
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: it would be fucking awesome and I think we need
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: to be at that anyway. Moving on Friday, you got
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: a couple of games Florida State, Duke. Florida State's getting
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: three Florida State changing quarterbacks. They have fully committed to
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: the youth movement at this point against the Duke team
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: that I think is bugazy. Don't have a play lean
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Florida State. We probably played on the money line in
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: this one. Oregon to Purdue interesting game. If this game
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: gets to twenty eight, I may take some Purdue here.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: This is a flat spot for Oregon coming off of
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: that big win. You're traveling across the country. You've got
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: all those time zones. I don't know what time zone purdues,
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: and I think it's in Central because in the end
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: it does that weird shit where they don't change time
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: zones to daylight savings. But if you give me a
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: twenty eight, I can get down Purdue. Perdue found a
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: new quarterback last week, Ryan Brown run the ball. Michael
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: be looked pretty good. You got an Oregon team that's
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: looking at this Purdue like, what are we gonna do
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: in this one? So I could easily get down short.
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: We could travel too. I mean, you had a late
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: game in the Oregon Purdue game and then they're gonna
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: have to be inn west LaPete Friday. So you getting
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: a short week there. Like I said, Okie State in
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: the mullet, traveling up to by.
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: You the store. Can Before we get off of Oregon,
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: can we talk about Dan Lanning. They've changed the rule
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: running twelve guys on the field to run off clock.
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: That is one of the best things. Say what you
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: want to say about cup. It ain't cheating if it
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: ain't illegal, Baby run it out there, and it won
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: them the ball game. I mean, that's the deal. It
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: won them the ball game. That is why you pay
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: coaches ten million dollars. You want to know why these
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: guys and that's why dudes get fired when they can't
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: manage the clock. That right, there was premium premium difference.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: I mean that was phenomenal coaching. Anyway, go ahead, talk
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: about the Ducks in a tough spot before we get
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: off of this too. Yeah, they go at Purdue. Listen
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: to the schedule coming up when we talk about their
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: Illinois at home at Michigan, Maryland at home at Wisconsin.
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: That Whiskey game is game eight in a row.
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: Baby, Yeah, that's and that one's in Camp Randall.
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: Right, that's at cam Randall. You talk about a shot
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: to come up. That's eight ball games in a row.
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: We talked about it last week that Old Miss was
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: playing seven in a row last week. How'd they play?
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: Eight weeks in a row? Is a bad cover number.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: There's big statistics on it out there. Got to be
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: watching for Whiskey coming up down the stretch.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree with that one. Oaks State getting
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: eight and a half at Bay. You haven't got involved yet,
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: but I would lean Oak State in that one. But
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: I'm probably not gonna play it. Presno and Nevada give
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: me Nevada man in that one. I haven't played it,
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: but I lean Nevada. Mikey Keen at President of State
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: to me, hasn't looked great. Nevada. Is we better shot? Yeah,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: can we get a nickname for the coach? Can we
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: call them the choke hold? The guy that's in Nevada
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: now that can hold.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Play some pretty They are playing some pretty good defense.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: I know he's a defensive guy, but but they are
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: playing some pretty good defense.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: But yeah, he got some anyway, do you have a
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Friday play at all on anything that's out there?
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: You know, I really don't unlike you. I agree with you.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: This looks like a spot where the mullet may jump up.
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: But man, that b YU team's good. I like that defense.
• 26:22
  Speaker 2: I think they're gonna make and I think they're gonna
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: be able to run the ball very much like Arkansas
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: did on on Oklahoma State. And even though that's a
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: big number, this b YU team, I like. They have
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: looked good. I liked them pre season and I and
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: I continue to like them. I didn't think they'd be
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: this good, but they're pretty good.
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've I agree with you, but I've been surprised
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: with b YU. But I just I just got a
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: feeling this maybe where the mullet pops up right here.
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: But I could be wrong. All right, Saturday games, Scotty
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: would Ford to kind of start anywhere. Why not start
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: in the world's greatest conference, And why not start in
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: the MAC, because that's where all games are gonna be Saturday.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: All eyes are gonna be in one spot. You know
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: where they're gonna be, Scott. They're gonna be watching Bowling
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Green in Kent State. Bowling Green lay in twenty one
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: here not getting any of the tickets. Fifty six is
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: the over under total. Please explain to me why I'm
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: betting on a team called Bowling Green who wears brown
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: and orange this weekend.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: Because I always said this, I think there's a huge
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: gap between the top and the bottom at the MAC.
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: I think still think Kent State's one of the worst
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: four or five teams in the country because ball State's
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: not very good either. I think Bowling Green just is
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: good enough to win this game by more than twenty.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: Kent State is terrible. They're not gonna get the miracles
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: they got last week. They're on the road. They were
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: home last week. Give me Bowling Green lay in twenty
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: in the MAC. I like me some MAC this week.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: Oh, let's stay the baby. Two of the better programs
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: in the back over the last decade, Toledo and Northern Illinois.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: We'll playing Golden Illinois Saturday afternoon. Lying here is Northern
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Illinois minus three. This is a crazy low total for
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: a back game, forty three. What are we gonna do?
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: Are we gonna take the fat coach for Northern Illinois
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: or we're gonna go with to Toledo Rockets.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: I love both these teams, love both these programs, but
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: I do like Northern just a little bit more. They
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: feel like they're playing well. Toledo obviously played poorly last week,
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: so they're gonna come back and play much better. It's
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: showing two and a half in my book right now.
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: I really like Northern Illinois said last week when they
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: were playing Bowling Green, you want to be the man,
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: you gotta beat the man. Well, now the man's playing
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: the man. This is this is you know, going back
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: to another to another Rick Flair reference. This is Rick
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: Flair busting into the WWE and going Hulk Hogan in
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: the MAC. That's what we're talking. I like Northern playing
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: two and a half.
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: Oh man, how we don't talk more wrestling on this show?
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: I got another one for you. I'm gonna go adm
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back to the big ten in this one,
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go all the road in a spot that
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: I don't think there's a massive home field advantage, though
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: the field is beautiful if you get a chance to
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: watch it. Wisconsin's land seven and a half at Northwestern
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: in this one over under is a low total of
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: forty one and a half. I haven't looked at the
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: weather yet. I'll be real honest with you. It's always
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: there because if you haven't seen this field, it's literally
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: all in Lake Michigan. But Wisconsin, since Tyler Van Dyke's
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: gone down, has actually looked better to me. I feel
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: like they've geled around the backup quarterback. They've kind of
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: short some things up offensively. I feel like they're starting
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: to find an identity here. I think Wisconsin land seven
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: and a half quietly is gonna get this win and
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: move on team find to seven. I'd go with the seven,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: but I like Wisconsin here to cover against Northwestern.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: Boy, they looked so good last week and part of that,
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: but I also think, you know, I talked about Alabam
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: going on the road win convincingly Whiskey, it was better
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: in that game. They had some brutal turnovers that that
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: then people think if you didn't watch that ball game,
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: A lot of people are probably down down playing how
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: good Whiskey was in that game, because I think they
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: were better than people, you know, than people think. I
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: think this Northwestern team is floundering. I do not like
• 30:24
  Speaker 2: a lot of the things that they're doing. I still
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: going back to that Duke game. Both those teams were
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: just miserable in that game. Early in the year, Wisconsin
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: has got enough. It looks like that offensive line is
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: starting to play bully ball. I think they're gonna be
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: able to do it. They're finding a run game. I
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: like Wisconsin here, and I like them comfortably.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you. I think Wisconsin. Actually, I also
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: think Longo and Pickle. I don't know think fire fickle,
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: but they will fire along.
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: Goo Weather's great Saturday by the way in shy Town,
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: seven degrees forty eight, answering.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Gimme Wisconsin on.
• 30:59
  Speaker 2: A little bit, a little bit Wendy, but it's always
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: Wendy right there on the lake.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: They're gonna beat the dogs out of these nerds, all right,
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: next game, Scotty, are we gonna roll? I haven't played
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: it yet? Are we speaking of your favorite coach. Are
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: you gonna play Kirk Signetti against Matt Rule? Two of
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: my favorite coaches in college football, Matt Rule and Kirk
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: Signetti right now? I mean Signetti last week.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: If y'all have not seen that interview on Oh What's
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: the Guy? On ESPN? You know the punterkuy, I can't
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: believe Pat McAfee. Yeah, Pat McFee. If you have not
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: seen that interview on Pat McAfee's show, go find it
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: at McAfee posted it on Twitter. You talk about fabulous. Oh,
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: he's like, I mean, we don't.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: I don't.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: I want to be on the road as little as
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: I can. I mean, when when I gonna have an
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: assistant coach, Like We'll go in on Thursday? Not going
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: in on Thursday. I'm gonna get in as latey as
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: we can on Friday night, We're gonna get up, We're
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: gonna go play. And I mean that's what we did.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: We got out there, got in late. I think we
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: got to the hotel eight thirty nine o'clock. Get up,
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: get up, go in the morning, get out there, play
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: three thirty, go in, kick their ass and go home.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: It was awesome. I mean McAfee's response is just priceless.
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, it is hilarious, So go watch it if
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: you didn't. McAfee's funny. There are things that I like
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: about him. There's things I don't. He's you know, there's
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: some things he's over the top, but man, you gotta
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: love that guy. He just goes at it. He is hardcore,
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: and I certainly see why he's making the money he's making.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, I can't. I don't know if I
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: want to lay six and a half with Indiana against Nebraska,
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: but I will say this much that the Nebraska quarterback,
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: who I do think is gonna be good, that kind's
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: so funny. He even walks like Patrick Mahomes if you
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: watch him. But he has looked like a freshman a
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: few times this season.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: And they can't run the ball. I mean, so much
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: stress on him. It feels like Signetti and them are
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: gonna cover this. But I'm with you at Nebraska defense
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: pretty good though, Yeah, I so yeah.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: I haven't played it yet six and a half. I
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: don't like lean here, but if I lean Indiana, if
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: I were to get involved in that game, Scotty next game,
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: I want to go to. Let's stay in the big
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: ten Bro. This is not what I thought i'd take
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: early this season, but I'm going to give me Illinois
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: at home plus three and a half against the Michigan
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: Wolverines in this one. Michigan, to me, they've trying to
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: find a quarterback. They've gone through three now I think
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: they finally landed someone. They're putting a ton of pressure
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: on this defense over under. Here's forty four. My total
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: place this year have been garbage, by the way, but
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: Illinois getting three and a half. I like what Luke
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Altemer did, and I think last week with that Purdue game,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: they were so up at halftime and I think they
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: just went to sleep and they let Purdue sneak back
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: in the game. Altimar's played really well for this Illinois team.
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: He's got a little bit of swagger. But you're getting
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: this is a huge upset spot, huge upset spot. You're
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: getting the host Michigan, a team that normally just comes
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: down and just skullfucks these guys. I've gone to Illinois
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: all day plus three and a half. Give me fat
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: Bird to get this one done.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: Man. These defenses are both going to dominate. Both these offenses.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: But if you make me pick and I'm about to
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: stun you. I ain't the Illinois offenses better than that Michigans.
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it is because Altima is actually having a
• 34:16
  Speaker 2: good year and he's actually throwing the ball well enough
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: to make them able to run the football. You can't
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: just stand up. You just can't stack the line of scrimmage.
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: He is playing better than anybody that Michigan's had out there.
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: Michigan's now going to tuttle as a third QB. That's
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: obviously because they want to try to throw the football.
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: I just don't have any confidence in this. There's a
• 34:38
  Speaker 2: reason he was third. I mean, let's face it, and
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: if he isn't, then they got real questions about can
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: they gauge talent up there at quarterback. So I'm with you.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: I think three and a half's too much. This feels
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: like a seventeen fourteen, fifteen, fourteen, twenty one, twenty. I mean,
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: it feels like one of those kind of ball games,
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: you know. I mean, could you not see this game
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: being ten to nine? Oh? I mean, this game just
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: feels like they may fight in a phone booth and
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: play defense and it literally nobody get past the thirty
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: five yard line. So I'm with you. I like Illinois
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: plus three and a half home.
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: Speaking speaking of defense on these two teams, Like when
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: I look down at Wink Martindale's standing on the sideline
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: for Michigan, when he's got the like blue best on
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: with his gold sleeves and his glasses and his gold
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: chain with the medallion, like holy tony soprano vibes that
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: that guy's given down there. It's like, what is going on?
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: How relatable is he the eighteen year old boys? Like
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: hey man who rolled fucking creepy granddad out to practice today? Oh,
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: that's what he looks like.
• 35:41
  Speaker 2: I love that he's got the same name as the
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: old guy from like what game show is that? He's
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: like the Dating Game or something, wasn't it or I
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: don't know, something.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Crazy Wink Martindale, I mean, that's a creepy it's even
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: a creepy nickname for the guy. Anyway. But anyway, give
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: me was give me Illinois plus the points in this one, Scotty,
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about one more mac team ball State is
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: playing everybody's favorite in Vandy this week, Diego Pavia and
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: getting it done. I mean this guy, I bet his
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: interview schedule is just crazy. They're selling merch everywhere. This
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: line's funny. Though this line's been all it's it's actually
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: kind of coming down. I don't know ball State Vandy's
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: gonna catch all the steam in the world on this game.
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: Ball States get twenty five over under, here's fifty eight
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: and a half. You're not getting much traffic on the over.
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: It's all leaning to the under in this spot. Can
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: ball State stay within twenty five points of Vanderbilt?
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Yes, give me testical tech. This is more about Pavia
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: being banged up. Boy, flat spot. I mean, you talk
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: about flat spot for the doors. They've got that huge
• 36:49
  Speaker 2: win against Bama, they get their they beat Kentucky on
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: the road last week. I mean two Jiganny wins for that,
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: and Kentucky and Vandy have always kind of gone at it.
• 37:03
  Speaker 2: I would say they're other than Tennessee. They're probably Vandy's
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: next biggest rival, and because they're right up the road.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: But man, you talk about a flat spot. They got
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: another number one team in the country coming to Nashville
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: next week. Can they do it twice in a season?
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: I just don't think you gets your best effort from
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Vandy this week. I think this is flat spot city.
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: I ain't Vandy's gonna win the ball game. I think
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: this could easy be a backdoor cover or be a
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: thirty eight, you know, fourteen kind of game where the
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: game's never in doubt Vandy makes it around. But I
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: also could be this being a thirty one to twenty
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: four game and Boss State keeps it closer than people
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: think because Vandy's gonna be flat and I think this
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: is gonna be I think this is gonna be a
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: lot like Texas and Georgia versus Mississippi State. There they
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: just go do what they've got to do to win
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: the game, but that doesn't cover the twenty five that
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: you got to get over to that you gotta get over.
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: So I like ball State here.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: Hey, if Texas, I'm gonna tell you this much. If
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Texas beach Georgia this weekend and then goes to Vandy
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: and covers October twenty six and handles it, because that's
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: a weird spot weird no doubt flat spot and covers
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: you and I are putting a thousand dollars on Texas
• 38:21
  Speaker 1: to win the Natty because that's gonna prove to me
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: that they're legit, their sarks got them dialed in mentally.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: If they win these two games.
• 38:29
  Speaker 2: In a row and they cover it because they're about
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: to go on the road to Bandy after their two
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: biggest games on their schedule, I mean, their biggest rival
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: in Oklahoma, and then they're playing Georgia, I mean, which
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: is a gigantic game. I mean, Austin's been zeused up
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: since Wednesday. I mean, it is going to be a
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: huge game on Saturday. And then they're going to play
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: the Doors, who are just dangerous enough that you can't
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: sleep walk through the game. So it's yeah, I agree
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: with you. It's gonna be fascinating next week. So give
• 39:01
  Speaker 2: me ball State here. And this is not an indictment
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: of the Doors. This is strictly schedule management sets up
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: a bad spot for him. You can't hard to play emotional.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: Jackie Cheryl used to say this all the time. You
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: have to manage your schedule, especially when you're not a
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: great team, because you can only play emotional three or
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: four times a year. And that is bottom line. This
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: ain't an emotional game for Vandy. They've already had to
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: do that two weeks in a row.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you on this one. Next one I've
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: got is I'm gonna go Service Academy for you. I'm
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: gonna go Charlotte against Charlotte Navy. And this one, this
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: game is being played at Annapolis line here sixteen and
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: a half. I'm gonna lean to the over. If you
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: go look at these Navy and Army teams are different
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: than what we've seen in years past. Navy's throwing the ball,
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: opening things up. They're playing so much better this year
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: than they did last year. And this Charlotte team I
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: kind of thought was just dead on the arrival. I
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: do think Biff Pogey doesn't make it. My only question
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: is does Bif disrespect Navy and show up with a
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: T shirt with the sleeves cutoff to coach on the sideline.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: I'm going no, I think you were just Collar's shirt
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: for this one. But I like the over at fifty five.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: Here Navy's six and oh to the over, and Charlotte's
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: not far behind in this Their defenses atrocious. I think
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: it will cause problems for Navy, but I can easily
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: see this game being a thirty five to twenty one
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: game and we go over fifty six. I mean it's
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: a sixteen point line, so give me the over at
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: fifty five.
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: Well, here's the deal there. They're averaging over get and
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: this is Charlotte. They're giving up thirty one and a
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: half point thirty one point seven points a game. Score
• 40:43
  Speaker 2: in twenty four points a game. I like that. I
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: think Navy's gonna score forty. That means we need two
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: touchdowns in a field goal, three tds from them. That's
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: all I need. So I agree with you. I like this.
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: I do think Navy gets into the forties. This team's
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: a good football team. Army and Navy are both good.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, last week, Army just keeps getting it done.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: And yeah, I'm gonna low Army again this week because I'm.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: So hoping those dudes. One of these dudes makes the playoffs.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: It would be the best story of the year. I mean,
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: you got Vandy beating Bama and one of the Service
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: academies making a twelve team playoff. Do you know how
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: sweet that would be. Navy's got Navy's got n D
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: on deck.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: That's true, that's true. But Navy's not a team to be.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: A Yeah, they're they're they're working like they go out
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: and they did their work. That's exactly right.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: Oh, Scottie, let's code talk about your Cal Bears. Bro
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: Cal in the spot. Is this cow team you have
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: to admit is marketably better than what you thought they
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: were going to be coming in.
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: The season, No doubt.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Who are we going to play in this Cal beer
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: game that you've got? Man?
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: I like Cal. I think it's the same thing we talked.
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: We talked about it being live dogs when Miami came
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: out there. This is not a good NC State team.
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: Cal candidly feels like they should have won that game
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: last week. Now Pitt was in control, but man, they
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: had lots of opportunities. That was a really low scoring game.
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: I just don't think NC State's gonna be able to
• 42:17
  Speaker 2: score enough points to keep it within ten. It's not
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: like this Cal offense is a juggernaut, but good gracious,
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: that defense is good in n C State's a mess.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: So give me Cal on the road. They've been good
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: at home, better at home. Should have beaten Miami and
• 42:34
  Speaker 2: n C State is not Miami. I'll lay the ten.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: I'll take the Bears. They've been a good football team.
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: The calgarithm baby, that's awesome. No, that's what we got
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: for the board this week. I'm gonna play Army again.
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay until they bucked me off. It's minus
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: fifteen and a half against East Carolina. I just think
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: the I don't think the betting public's paying attention to
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: Army maybe personally. And I don't think you've actually watched Army.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: This team is just a wagon, bro, and so I'm
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: gonna play them. Is one of my other plays that
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: I've got there. Where are you on LSU in Arkansas?
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: In this spot? I'm interested to hear your opinion here.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: You know what.
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: This game has. Boy, I thought about I thought hard
• 43:11
  Speaker 2: about this, but I would lay the two and a half.
• 43:14
  Speaker 2: Arkansas is a tough place to play, but I think
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: nuss Meyer is a experienced enough quarterback he can take
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: him on the road. I just don't think Arkansas is
• 43:21
  Speaker 2: gonna be able to run the football well enough on
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: this team. And we don't know if Taylor Green's even
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: going to play. I lean LSU if I if I
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: take that, If I take.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: That, bet Bama Tennessee, you get to smoke a cigar
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: if you win this one. It's being played in Knoxville,
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: Tennessee's getting three home. Do we think the young quarterback
• 43:41
  Speaker 1: can rise up against this Bama team.
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: He's looked like a freshman, and I this Bamadee is
• 43:49
  Speaker 2: pretty soft boy. He didn't look very good against the
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: Gators last week. Got take Bama there as well.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I would lean Bama in that spot too, hadn't
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: played it, But another game, I tell you, I'd kind
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: of like if you're looking at in bigger spots, I
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: think this Notre Dame Georgia Tech game. I like Georgia
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: Tech Plus two. I'm gonna dig more into that one, folks.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: We're just trying to give you all some ideas for
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: other things to look into. But I like Georgia Tech
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: at plus well. I haven't played it, but kind of
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: want to look into it and do a little bit
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: more reading through on some things. But I also don't
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: hate this Notre Dame team. They get Riley Leonard. To
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: me though, is not the X factor by any stretch,
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: no doubt, which I was really surprised about with that.
• 44:28
  Speaker 1: So we've got that scotty last thing. We've got underdog
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: money line parlay. I've actually got one in my pocket.
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it out and that. I'm sure you've
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: got one too, but you're gonna love this one because
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: it is g ross. I'm gonna take the Houston Cougars
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: to upset Kansas on the road. Houston's got a new
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: quarterback coming in in this one. He looked really good
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: and they got a bye week, so you know he
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: got more work in this spot. Kansas, to me, has
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: been underwhelming all season. I'm gonna take Houston plus five
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: and a half and I am going to go somewhere
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: that's almost gonna give me diarrhea before I get in
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: them talking about it. Give me the Auburn Tigers against
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: the Missouri Tigers in the spot. Four and a half
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: is what the number is. I'm catching it at plus
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: one fifty four. I'm gonna pair of Auburn and Houston
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: in my money line underdog parlay. What do you got?
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: Wow? You like all? You like the fighting? Hugh freezes
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: to not have four turnovers on the road?
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: Absolutely? Man?
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: Why now you like you don't have any confidences in
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: the Soy boys at Columbia, No.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: Man, those soy milk all these are I was trying
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: to be politically correct.
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: Those guys were so soft watching them play A and M.
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: I think Auburn hadn't quit yet, I really do. And
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: I think Auburn's gonna come up here get it done
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: in Missouri. It's not a terrible place to play. Give
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: me the fighting you Freezes plus one fifty four. Gonna
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: pair of that up with the uh with with the
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: Cougars at plus one sixty four. I haven't done the
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: math yet, but it's gonna be a nice pay day
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: when I get to put it in my pop.
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go my two favorite conferences and give you
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: and give you one. You love the Ohio Bobcats plus
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: three and a half at Miami, Ohio. Give me the
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: Georgia Bulldogs on the road plus three and a half
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: at Texas. You can't tell me that Georgia, that Georgia
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: is is is not a great football team that lines
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: too much. Georgia can easily win this game. When you're
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: picking underdogs, can they win games? Can they not? You're
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: looking for queen flip games. It's a quin flip game.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: You can't tell me that Georgia can't win this game.
• 46:35
  Speaker 2: Anybody that tells you that, Oh, Texau, drill these guys
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: Texas may Georgia is gonna have to play poorly to
• 46:41
  Speaker 2: do it, But don't forget this is the same team
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: and this is the first time Georgia is really gonna
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: have lined up with that same effort they gave Clemson.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: I'm expecting the team that played Clemson a whole lot
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: more than I am the team that played Mississippi State.
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: I'll take the cheat dogs, I would. I'm gonna bet
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: Georgia in this game too. I may may put it
• 47:02
  Speaker 1: in a wheel of some sort. Texas has played terrible
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: after red River for years, and I know I think
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: I think Sark has definitely fixed Texas. I think the
• 47:12
  Speaker 1: cultures there, the recruitings there, the fact that they're keeping kids.
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, most of the kids that he lost in
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: the portal, a lot of them went with Choke when
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: he went out to Nevada, and so I like what
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: he Sark's doing here. They've got some players, man, and
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: they've been able to step up. But this is a
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: big game. I would roll a Georgia here if I
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: were gonna do it. Plus, I'll tell you one more
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: things interesting. We kind of wrap because I know you
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: got to go to the State Fair, but that line
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: got hit yesterday about one point thirty. Steam from three
• 47:40
  Speaker 1: to three and a half got all the way up
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: to five and a half. It's kind of settled around five.
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: Be interesting to watch if that game was a setup
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: or if that was true Steam that pushed that thing up.
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: But to move a line in a big game like that,
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: you know, almost to a key number and six, it
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: was kind of funny to me. So I'm looking forward
• 47:55
  Speaker 1: to it. Man, Every Saturday is gonna be awesome. I
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: will be in Loving Texas for the Texas Tech Baylor game.
• 48:02
  Speaker 1: I'll probably be the only one in my family wearing
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: green supporting God's team. I do not think we're gonna win.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be gross. Uh and it could be.
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: I hope it's kind of raining and the winds blowing
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: so we can old Mike Leach weather forecast but rains
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: here and love it. It's really just mud falling from
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: the sky. Data. That being said, we'll hit it again
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: next week.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: Y'all.
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: Hit us up on Twitter, give us some reviews, have
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: some fun, enjoy your college football. As always, we'll talk
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: to you soon.
