• 1:49
  Speaker 2: you know. Yeah, look at all that we put on arts,
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: you know. So, uh, if he's any good at law,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: the expectations, you know, it's kind of sucks for him
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: because he can't be mediocre if heed the average people
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: in the Stay States.
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: No, you're absolutely right. Of course, we got, you know,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: several years of high school football. Then we got to
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: get him into college and all that. Keith, I want
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: to ask you about a couple of teams. It's going
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: through some homework here from the athletic the best teams
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: to not win a national title in the last fifty years.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: And the athletic put a great piece together, and they
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: put numbers to it. They didn't just you know, throw
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: something at the wall. They used national championship game appearances,
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: ap top five finishes, conference championships, major bowls, ten win seasons,
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: top twenty five finishes, consecutive losing seasons.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: They've got Oregon ranked as the.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Best team in the last fifty years that hasn't won
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: a national title. Now, obviously their odds are really good
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: at AmeriStar to win the national title this year. And
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: your estimation is Oregon the best team without a title
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: in the last you know, fifty.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Years, in the last fifty years. Oh wow, you know, jeez,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: that's a tough one where they're coming from.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: You know, I mean, uh, but when when you say, like,
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: are we talking you mean a school program?
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Are we talking an individual teams? Oh?
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: We're just talking about like the program itself.
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: M yeah, yeah, Jake, I you know, I mean I
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: would say Oregon is up there, you know, but if
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: you ask me, I'll put records us there.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: No kidd, I'm just kidding, Jake. Uh yeah, I could
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: see it. I'd have to read the article though to
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: see what what all the parameters are.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no doubt about it.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: And Jake, you know, when we were talking not switch gears,
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: but when we were talking about uh, you know, uh
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: Manny Marshall, have.
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: You noted have you seen how many sons of former
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: players are notre Dame?
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: You know, I heard, I think I saw how many?
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Is it?
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Is it three or four?
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: I want to say it's like six or seven? Oh wow, yeah,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: I mean there's a bunch, right, I mean, so like
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: I know that there's like Jerome Bennett's kid, right, Remember
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: Bryce Young was a defensive lineman. He's got a kid there.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Larry Fitzgerald, uh got a kid there.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: There's a couple of others.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I have to pull up the article in simdity, but
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: there's there's a bunch of of them. I would say
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: there's probably about six uh son of a former NFL players.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Well that just once speaks of the blood lines and
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: the greatness of those players. And then two Keith, that
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: tells me we're getting really old.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: Oh classical. Barots's kid? Is that Notre Dame? So you got.
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: Fitzgerald ballast ballat.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: Uh, Bryant young kid. I think it's right.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, there's a couple more.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: I have to get that article.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Very nice.
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: We're visiting with Keith Hartie sportsbook manager Adam Arastar. It
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: is Friday. Want you to get out and play today, Keith.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: You know, Uh, Fernando Mendoza with another great outing. Uh
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: you are good outing yesterday.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Uh. He is such a unique person.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: You know when you watch him in the interview rooms,
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: he's the smartest guy in the room. He's very articulate,
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: he's very kind, if you listen to him talk, it's
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: almost like he's not a football player.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: It's like he's having fun. Yeah, you know that interview
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: that I saw after the game, smile. Uh, you know
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: he's got he's got a really uh magnetic person outy. Yes,
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: definitely a breath of fresh air. I just hope that
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: the Raiders can put some put some pieces around him.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, there's there's no doubt about it. And
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: we'll see how they do that or if they do that.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Keith, when you look at college football next week week zero,
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: obviously we want people to come.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: In to play that. Now's the time for win total
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: time as well, isn't it.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, of course, you know we got all got
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: all the futures are out team totals. One of my
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: favorites is of a team to make the twelve team playoff.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: I really like that. One. Of course, you got to
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: win the national championship to win, you're to win your conference.
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: Yeah uh so.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: And now's the time to get them because you know
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: those those odds will change. So if especially you know now,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: unless of course, you know, you got like a favorite,
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: it loses a game early, then the.
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: Odds can go up but but typically they don't.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: They go down. And if you got a long shot
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: and they're off to a good start, well you're not
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: going to get those long odds anymore. So you definitely
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: want to get your futures in before the season start.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Keith just off the off the cuff. And this isn't
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: Keith giving gambling advice or gaming advice. I'm just we're
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: having fun here. Alabama eight and a half. Would you
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: go over under today?
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: You would think nine, It would be no problem. You know,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: it seems like an easy over, But I don't like it. Jake,
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: if you asked me today, I would have to go under.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I'm I'm I'm I may well. I would
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: probably you know, just push that one to the sign.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I probably wouldn't play it. But if you're making me
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: pick it, I may go.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Today I may go under and tomorrow may go over.
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: I just think it's that razor thin Auburn six and
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: a half. Yeah, I've been, you know, looking for this
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Auburn turnaround. Beaver clowns me a lot, which he should,
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: because I've been, you know, saying, hey, they're coming back,
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: they're coming back, and they haven't come back at six
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: and a half. I'm with you. I would I would
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: likely take the over. Let's get a couple more in here,
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: just just for fun and see what you think.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: You know, Clemson is man. Clemson's at seven and a half.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: It's probably been almost twenty years, you know, Dabo's first
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: couple of years that Clemson had to win total solo
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: seven and a half of the Clemson Tigers seven and
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: a half.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: Well, take It's hard to go under on that, but
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go under on seven and a half.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Shoot, yeah, I'm gonna go over on seven and a half.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: But I don't feel real good about it. And what
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: about Florida Florida seven and a half? You know, Florida
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: the Gators.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Mario Cristobal called Florida the most talented team, one of
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: the most talented teams they played last year, and you know,
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: they ended up winning that ball game. Early in the season,
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: a lot of people felt like the team was mismanaged
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: under Billy Napier. They got a lot of that talent
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: back Florida at seven and a half.
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So the tricky.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Thing about Dolwin Jake is the over is plus one
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: thirty five. The under is minus one seventy five. Right
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: tells you the howes Bakers think more towards the under. Right,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: they're giving you morement. If filling the win eight games,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: you're getting plus money. Uh. So I I don't like
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: laying one seventy five. You know, I'm not a big fan.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: That's almost two to win one. You gotta lay put
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: up one seventy five to win one hundred. I'm not
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: a big fan of that. I would rather go the over,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: uh and get the plus money and something else. I'll
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: want to let your listeners know. You know, when you've
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: got a team total, you get an opportunity to hedge
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: when they get next to that number.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: You know what I mean, Jacob, play that out there everybody,
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: so don't know what you're talking about.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: Okay, So all right, let's say I'm gonna go over right,
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go over I got over seven and a half,
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: and here comes the game that'll giving them their eighth win.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Where now I can play the other side and guarantee
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: myself some money. I can get my initial investment back.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Let's say I put up one thousand to win thirteen hundred.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Now I can put some money on the other side
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: of the team they're playing, and especially if they're the
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: favorite in that game. So now I can take the
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: other side plus points and possibly middle and get them both. Guys,
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: I know I'm throwing a lot of games jargon.
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: Out there, but what I'm getting at is, if flatter
• 10:21
  Speaker 4: was to get their eighth win, you're gonna win your.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: Team total bet. You cannot bet the other side. They
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: don't get the eighth win. You make money because you've
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: got the other side, right yeah, you follow me?
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, And if they're the favorite, you're begetting points
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: and you could possibly win them both.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: PARTA wins but doesn't cover the spread.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: Keith, Before we let you go, we want people to
