1
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,919
Speaker 1: All right, welcome in everybody. It is Beast week day two.

2
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:10,240
It's Tuesday. That's not Brian Power or Rob Veto, but

3
00:00:10,279 --> 00:00:14,640
that's Matt Winnick. He's filling in today. Matt, introduce yourself

4
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,320
to the Full Court Press Chat.

5
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, Matthew Hennick college basketball analyst consultant. Do some content

for Basket under Review. Go check that out. I do

7
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,960
Weekend under Review with Brian Ralph twice a week every week,

00:00:27,039 --> 00:00:31,559
Mondays and Fridays. That comes out and fine, follow me

9
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,920

10
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:35,640
coming out there.

11
00:00:37,439 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 3: I can't.

12
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:40,679
Speaker 1: The basket of a review site is as good as

13
00:00:40,719 --> 00:00:44,159
it gets. I mean, if you are if you're trying

14
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,359
to well, hey, if you're just a fan of being

15
00:00:47,359 --> 00:00:50,560
tuned into college basketball or you're trying to handicap games

16
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,880
in any capacity. To me, it's like, I feel like

17
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,240
it's like the Wall Street Journal of like college hoops.

18
00:00:55,479 --> 00:00:57,799
Like I remember being in college, and I don't know

19
00:00:57,799 --> 00:00:59,679
if I'm dating myself with that, but you used to

20
00:00:59,679 --> 00:01:02,159
have to like I went to like business school and

21
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,000
used to have to like read the Wall Street Journal

22
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,319
every day, Like it was like a thing back in

23
00:01:06,359 --> 00:01:10,319
the mid two thousands. But it's it's in my opinion,

24
00:01:10,359 --> 00:01:12,200
that's the first thing I do every morning I wake up,

25
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,480
I go to the basket Under review site. It is

26
00:01:15,439 --> 00:01:19,239
it's phenomenal, it's cheap, it's super affordable. The stuff there

27
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:23,439
is is fantastic. Your stuff is excellent, and we're thrilled

28
00:01:23,439 --> 00:01:26,519
to have you fill in today and and a couple

29
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,560
of times this week, as as my co hosts are

30
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,319
traveling for Thanksgiving. That's something I don't have to do

31
00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:34,840
this year, and I am. I couldn't be happier about

32
00:01:34,879 --> 00:01:37,319
it because I just get to sit home and watch

33
00:01:37,359 --> 00:01:40,840
games all day. It's it's been great. But Matt, we're

34
00:01:40,879 --> 00:01:43,280
gonna get right into it. So we pick a feature

35
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,079
game and then we let it rip off the chat

36
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,239
for the rest of the hour. Today's feature game, let's

37
00:01:48,239 --> 00:01:49,959
go to the two ranked teams. Let's go out to

38
00:01:49,959 --> 00:01:53,879
the players era Houston, Tennessee. How are you seeing this one?

39
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 2: The first thing that comes to my mind when I

40
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,959
think about this game is Tennessee being first in the

41
00:01:58,959 --> 00:02:02,920
country in offensive rebounding rate forty nine percent. And then Houston,

42
00:02:02,959 --> 00:02:06,079
where you like immediately think oh, elite offensive rebounding and

43
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,800
their two games against Power Conference teams Auburn and Syracuse,

44
00:02:10,159 --> 00:02:13,960
they're plus three in offensive rebounding, so they're not dominating

45
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,240
the offensive glass that they have in previous years. Jojo Tugler,

46
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,479
for all his strengths, he's a good offensive rebounder, but

47
00:02:19,479 --> 00:02:24,319
he's not physically extremely strong, right. It's his arms. He's

48
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,919
tipping balls out, he's not grabbing these and going back

49
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,520
up with it, and he's been awful around the rims.

50
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,759
So you think you know big man advantage pretty clearly

51
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:39,159
Tennessee here. So if Tennessee's dominating the boards, if they

52
00:02:39,199 --> 00:02:41,719
have the better big men grouping at least on the

53
00:02:41,719 --> 00:02:44,919
glass and offensively, then Houston has to win the guard

54
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,039
game pretty significantly. Obviously, Nata Meant and Jacoby Gillespie were

55
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,439
both unbelievable in their game against Rutgers, but it was

56
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,879
ruckers and they were red hot from the field, and

57
00:02:54,879 --> 00:02:56,919
they're not gonna be red hot in this one. So

58
00:02:57,039 --> 00:03:00,520
if the trio of Kingston Flemings, Emmanuel Sharp and use

59
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:05,639
Ends significantly outplayed Tennessee's perimeter, then Houston still probably finds

60
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,439
a way despite the rebounding battle it they'll probably lose.

61
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I should have mentioned at the top.

62
00:03:12,159 --> 00:03:14,879
Speaker 1: We have a rematch of an Elite eight matchup last

63
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,080
year in a game where I felt like Tennessee had

64
00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:21,280
a very solid game plan. In that game, they just

65
00:03:21,319 --> 00:03:24,280
dug themselves far too big of a hole. If I'm

66
00:03:24,319 --> 00:03:26,000
going off memory, but I think that was the game

67
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,639
where they were still in single digits, like almost fifteen

68
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,479
minutes into the half.

69
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 3: Just could not hit a shot in the early.

70
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,479
Speaker 1: Stages of that game, and it turned into a pretty

71
00:03:35,479 --> 00:03:38,159
competitive game when it was all said and done, but

72
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,639
they just dug themselves far too big of a hole

73
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,879
in that game. Just going back kind of, you know,

74
00:03:44,159 --> 00:03:46,639
reading through the box score of that one quickly and

75
00:03:47,199 --> 00:03:50,599
just remembering that the flow of that game, I feel

76
00:03:50,639 --> 00:03:53,319
like there's gonna be it's going to be tough to

77
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,199
get shots off, maybe for both teams good shots at least.

78
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,360
So I'm not a huge I've told the chat many

79
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,199
times a total sandicapper.

80
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 3: That's not really how I go about it.

81
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: But this is one where I could see points being

82
00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:07,919
at a little bit of a premium, so I sort

83
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,120
of lean to the under, but not with any sort

84
00:04:11,159 --> 00:04:12,000
of real conviction.

85
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 2: And the other thing with that is both teams, you know,

86
00:04:14,879 --> 00:04:16,839
you think very physical get to the free throw line

87
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,720
a lot. They don't. They don't get into the free

88
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,439
throw line at all. So this is just going to

89
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:22,560
be a lot of shot making from two teams with

90
00:04:22,879 --> 00:04:25,600
yes body shot making. Now, of course that one under

91
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,000
in March Madness, but Tennessee shot seventeen percent from three.

92
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,240
They'll probably shoot better this game. But for those that

93
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,720
were watching Tennessee's exhibition game against Duke, probably the most

94
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,240
physical team Tennessee's played so far this year, obviously that

95
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,480
game didn't count. Aman and Gillespie had serious trouble getting

96
00:04:42,519 --> 00:04:46,000
good shots off, and that's probably happening again. It's just

97
00:04:46,079 --> 00:04:48,439
going to come down to which team hits shots.

98
00:04:49,639 --> 00:04:52,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I think back to our conversation about Tennessee

99
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,120
Rutgers yesterday and thinking that, you know, we were all

100
00:04:56,199 --> 00:04:58,720
kind of wrong on that game, and and I'll address

101
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,959
I'll address how wrong we were on the show yesterday

102
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,920
in just a second, because that was not our best

103
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,480
work on the show yesterday. But like Matts, Matt said

104
00:05:05,519 --> 00:05:06,720
before we got out on the area, He's like, I

105
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:07,480
wasn't here for that.

106
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 3: I said, yeah, no, you're you're right. This is a

107
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:10,720
clean slate.

108
00:05:10,759 --> 00:05:13,319
Speaker 1: But uh, I thought Rutgers would give Tennessee a little

109
00:05:13,319 --> 00:05:15,680
bit more trouble than they did in terms of like

110
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,199
open looks and stuff like that, and I chalk that

111
00:05:18,319 --> 00:05:21,240
up more to just Rutgers is really like starting at

112
00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,439
the bottom right now. So it's like, I'm not gonna

113
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,360
give Tennessee just a ton of credit for blowing that

114
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,000
team out. You know, Rutgers is a loss to Central

115
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:35,199
Connecticut State. They're just that that's not something like I

116
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:39,360
don't I don't view Tennessee's huge win over Rutgers as like, oh,

117
00:05:39,439 --> 00:05:42,199
like this team is is is that much better than

118
00:05:42,199 --> 00:05:44,160
I thought they were prior to yesterday when I thought

119
00:05:44,199 --> 00:05:47,319
Rutgers might cover that number. So uh, yeah, it'll be

120
00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:49,920
an interesting game. I'm fine, Like these are these are

121
00:05:49,959 --> 00:05:54,000
tougher games to bet, these sort of neutral core your

122
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,439
edges are likely not going to be in those, but uh,

123
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,639
we're gonna get hit some of the bigger ones now again.

124
00:05:59,759 --> 00:06:03,560
Yeahyesterday it was probably our worst show from a like

125
00:06:03,639 --> 00:06:06,399
win loss perspective, so we apologize for that now. I

126
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,480
personally had one of my best days of the season.

127
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,120
I went four and one on my five picks for clients.

128
00:06:11,319 --> 00:06:13,199
But all the stuff we talked about on the show

129
00:06:13,879 --> 00:06:15,879
just went up and flames. So we're gonna try to

130
00:06:15,879 --> 00:06:19,759
switch that here. And as always we you know, we

131
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:21,600
we're gonna hit the games that you want to talk

132
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,160
about in the chat. If you're gonna donate to the channel,

133
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,000
we're gonna hit you right away. And so Garth wants

134
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,680
to go way off the way off the board here,

135
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:31,959
way off the beaten path. I love this stuff. This

136
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,839
is this is what I live for eight and four

137
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,040
in chat plays. So yeah, we've done well for Garth.

138
00:06:37,639 --> 00:06:39,879
Every time he brings up a play, we talk about

139
00:06:39,879 --> 00:06:43,040
it and it hits. He wants to talk about Hampton tonight,

140
00:06:43,439 --> 00:06:45,720
and Matt, I gotta ask you, like, when was the

141
00:06:45,759 --> 00:06:50,439
last time Maryland Eastern Shore had a home non conference

142
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,839
game of like with an actual opponent. I feel like

143
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,399
they don't get these very often, and so I'll give

144
00:06:56,439 --> 00:06:57,959
you a second to navigate there.

145
00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 3: But this is Hampton. They are too.

146
00:07:00,519 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: I believe it's Princess and Maryland tonight to take on

147
00:07:04,199 --> 00:07:05,600
Maryland Eastern Shore.

148
00:07:06,439 --> 00:07:09,160
Speaker 3: Garth leans Hampton. I don't.

149
00:07:10,319 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: I'll let you sort of start it off, but I'm

150
00:07:12,079 --> 00:07:13,480
higher than the market on Hampton.

151
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 3: So we'll see what you have to say about this one.

152
00:07:15,839 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Hampton hasn't shot a lick as of late. Now,

153
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,160
granted they're not a very good shooting team, but they

154
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,160
started season thirty eight percent from three against Milwaukee in

155
00:07:25,199 --> 00:07:28,759
a tight four point loss at Milwaukee, pretty impressive result.

156
00:07:28,839 --> 00:07:32,560
And then since then twenty three percent, fifteen percent, twenty

157
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,360
five percent, seventeen percent, thirty percent. The shots aren't going

158
00:07:36,399 --> 00:07:38,600
in not a lot of shooters, but the shots still

159
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,160
aren't going in. Maryland Eastern Shore is going to make

160
00:07:41,199 --> 00:07:44,439
you hit threes, and they're due for some defensive regression.

161
00:07:44,439 --> 00:07:46,800
They're allowing teams to shoot twenty five percent from three.

162
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,639
So if you're a trends person, if you think steatus

163
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,720
quo is going to continue, then Hampton's gonna have a

164
00:07:52,759 --> 00:07:55,040
lot of trouble scoring. But if you believe that Hampton

165
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,560
is not a twenty five percent three point shooting team,

166
00:07:57,839 --> 00:08:00,240
and you don't believe that Maryland Eastern Shore is a

167
00:08:00,279 --> 00:08:03,959
twenty five percent defensive three point shooting team, then Hampton

168
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:07,720
probably scores at least some points. Here. Maryland Eastern Shore

169
00:08:07,759 --> 00:08:11,360
got it pretty significant nine point Ken Palm boost for

170
00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:17,480
beating Binghamton in the Nobody was watching cancious mte over

171
00:08:17,519 --> 00:08:21,319
the weekend. Binghamton was down to basically six players. It

172
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,800
was a disaster and Maryland Eastern Shore as the longest

173
00:08:24,839 --> 00:08:27,360
bench in the country, so they were able to sort

174
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,000
of outwill Binghamton on a back to back, but the

175
00:08:30,079 --> 00:08:32,159
day prior they lost to Canisius, one of the worst

176
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,559
teams in the country. Hampton just has to be good here.

177
00:08:35,879 --> 00:08:37,879
They had to crash the offensive glass. They have to

178
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,399
use their size and athleticism advantage and they have to

179
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,519
just shoot okay from three. And if they do that,

180
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,240
I know Maryland Eastern Shore gets like one Division One

181
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,919
home game non con a year, and this might be

182
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,600
a big spot for them. Granted students might be home

183
00:08:52,639 --> 00:08:56,480
for Thanksgiving. Hampton should win this game by more than three.

184
00:08:57,519 --> 00:08:58,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with that.

185
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,639
Speaker 1: I was at so I got to go out to

186
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:05,480
Saint Francis last year to see a game and their coach,

187
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:10,120
Coach Krimmel, who I ended up becoming. When I went

188
00:09:10,159 --> 00:09:11,960
out there, I didn't think St. Francis was just going

189
00:09:12,039 --> 00:09:15,000
to become like a national news story, but he came

190
00:09:15,039 --> 00:09:17,399
in so we I got to go into like the

191
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,240
pre thing for season ticket holders. I was there as

192
00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:23,200
a media person and he he came in and it

193
00:09:23,279 --> 00:09:25,279
was cool. You don't always see this, but he came

194
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,039
in and talked to everyone like twenty minutes before the game,

195
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,360
talked about who was in, who was out, and one

196
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,639
of the things he said was, listen, if we have

197
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:35,840
a hard time getting home games, if someone wants to

198
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,399
come play you like, and it's a you know a

199
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,879
team that's like I think it was Lehigh that came

200
00:09:41,919 --> 00:09:44,480
in for them. In this case it's Hampton. You just

201
00:09:44,519 --> 00:09:46,519
have to schedule it whenever. The reason I bring that

202
00:09:46,639 --> 00:09:49,279
up is Marylyn Eastern Shore was up here playing like

203
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,480
three games and three days they get like a day off.

204
00:09:52,519 --> 00:09:55,919
Now they're turning around and essentially stepping up in class

205
00:09:55,919 --> 00:09:58,399
on their home for because Hampton is still a step

206
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,399
up in class from a from a MEAC school. Uh.

207
00:10:01,519 --> 00:10:02,919
Speaker 3: The thing I've noticed about Hampton.

208
00:10:02,919 --> 00:10:04,799
Speaker 1: So I got to go down there two seasons ago

209
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,600
as well, and it was a complete circus. Ivan Thomas

210
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:13,039
is really instilled like a somewhat of a professional atmosphere

211
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:13,519
down there.

212
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 3: He of course comes from Georgetown.

213
00:10:15,639 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 1: He was one of ed Ed Cooley's guy's Providence and

214
00:10:18,399 --> 00:10:21,120
then you know, I believe he's from the DC area.

215
00:10:21,159 --> 00:10:24,559
But that team is functioning at such a higher level

216
00:10:24,879 --> 00:10:28,000
than they have in past years. And I think last

217
00:10:28,039 --> 00:10:30,600
year was kind of obviously year zero. Get some people in.

218
00:10:31,159 --> 00:10:33,559
I think Hampton could surprise some folks. And and Garth,

219
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,799
I'm kind of with you. I I Hampton is one.

220
00:10:36,799 --> 00:10:38,360
I'm going to give a lot more thought if that,

221
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:39,879
if that number is still there.

222
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 2: And they have your guy, they have your guy, Mike Ealy.

223
00:10:43,519 --> 00:10:48,399
Speaker 1: That's right, Yeah, that's right, former former Sienna saint there.

224
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,159
I feel like if you're a guard at Sianna, you

225
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,679
put in two years and then you just go wherever

226
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,679
you want. Pretty much at this point, guys like Jalen

227
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:04,639
pick At, JV on a column, Jordan King, so many yes,

228
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,679
Mike Eely was a little bit of a bust at Sienna.

229
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,360
It's always hurt, it was always hurt. Hopefully he'll be

230
00:11:10,399 --> 00:11:13,240
better for for Hampton. And Garth, I think you, uh,

231
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,679
I think you've got a good bet on the Hampton

232
00:11:15,759 --> 00:11:22,120
side there. All right, let's hit the chat. Let's see

233
00:11:22,159 --> 00:11:24,919
these Northern schools kicking ass last night.

234
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:26,799
Speaker 3: Someone.

235
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,879
Speaker 1: Let's let's go all right, well, we'll do this. I'm

236
00:11:28,879 --> 00:11:31,600
gonna get one more. I'm gonna go to the big

237
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,320
to big game number two, which I was gonna put

238
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,320
behind Tennessee, the Tennessee game, and then we'll get back

239
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:41,840
into the chat. So my kind of co feature for today,

240
00:11:42,159 --> 00:11:43,799
I know you've got a chance to see this team

241
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,840
in person. A couple of weeks ago looked awesome. Uh

242
00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:51,320
Saint John's taking on Baylor. Rematch of a game from

243
00:11:51,399 --> 00:11:54,759
last year that was down in the Bahamas, which had

244
00:11:54,759 --> 00:11:58,000
a tremendous finish and and was just one of the

245
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,679
sort of the games of Feast week last Here you

246
00:12:00,799 --> 00:12:02,759
got to see Saint John's up close and personal a

247
00:12:02,799 --> 00:12:05,759
couple of weeks ago against Alabama. How do you think

248
00:12:05,799 --> 00:12:07,080
they match up with Baylor here?

249
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,279
Speaker 2: I don't think Baylor's good. I don't think Baylor's good.

250
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,279
There are two by games, non covers against Tarleton and

251
00:12:15,399 --> 00:12:19,159
UTRGV granted too decent mid majors teams that could win

252
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,600
their league. They beat Washington. Washington shoots fifteen percent from

253
00:12:23,639 --> 00:12:27,960
three three of twenty. They beat Crayton. Creighton is in

254
00:12:28,039 --> 00:12:31,080
all sorts of shambles, getting killed left and right, lose

255
00:12:31,159 --> 00:12:34,840
their starter in Jackson, MC Andrew and Baylor needs a

256
00:12:34,879 --> 00:12:38,159
late surge to beat them. So what have they proven

257
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,320
outside of they can beat Washington at home when Washington

258
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,120
can't shoot, and they can beat a reeling Creighton team

259
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:46,840
with the late poll away Saint John's in their two

260
00:12:46,879 --> 00:12:50,440
games against any team worth something like down to the

261
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,679
wire with Alabama down or the wire with Iowa State,

262
00:12:53,799 --> 00:12:56,960
two teams that could very easily make the final four

263
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:01,279
Sweet sixteen. At bare minimum, those are two teams. One

264
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,960
team has proven they can compete with the top of

265
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:08,159
the country, and one team has proven basically nothing. Baylor

266
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,960
has been without Justlin Bodoboto all season. He continues to

267
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,440
be out. He should be their starting center, he is

268
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:17,919
their best defender, and then their leading scorer Cameron Carr

269
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,159
is shooting fifty three percent from three, so that's bound

270
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:24,080
to get down at some point. There's just not a

271
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,720
lot of love with this Baylor team. They're not overly big,

272
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,919
they're not overly athletic. They're only shooting thirty six percent

273
00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,000
from deep. Despite Cam Carr's hot start, I think Saint

274
00:13:35,039 --> 00:13:36,039
John's kills them here.

275
00:13:38,039 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you on this one.

276
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 1: I would even you could even talk me into making

277
00:13:42,759 --> 00:13:46,240
this one of the parlay legs. I too, am not

278
00:13:46,399 --> 00:13:50,799
high on Baylor at all. I think it's been very

279
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:55,080
interesting to watch Baylor since they won a national championship

280
00:13:55,399 --> 00:13:58,159
back in twenty twenty one, and just how good that

281
00:13:58,240 --> 00:14:02,399
Baylor team was defensively and how bad they've been almost

282
00:14:02,399 --> 00:14:04,879
on a how it's almost like they've dropped off on

283
00:14:04,919 --> 00:14:08,480
an annual basis defensively from what they were when they

284
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,480
were like a true elite team, which which is really

285
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,480
you'd have to go back to twenty twenty one to

286
00:14:13,879 --> 00:14:17,120
find a really elite Baylor team, when when Scott Drew

287
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:21,080
was being getting praised for incredible defense and stuff like that.

288
00:14:22,159 --> 00:14:25,159
They still get good offensive players, but the defense has

289
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,519
just dropped off every year. If I remember correctly that

290
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,679
game last year, I mean, they were on skates in

291
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,480
the first half and they couldn't stay in front of

292
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,159
a single Saint John's player. Believe they were down twenty

293
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,320
at one point early and they almost just kind of

294
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:40,600
willed their way back into that. But I also think

295
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,799
that that Baylor team maybe was a little bit more talented.

296
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,440
It was just like they just kind of willed their

297
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,840
way back into the game. Hit a big shot. A

298
00:14:50,879 --> 00:14:53,440
lot had to go right for Baylor to win that game.

299
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:55,759
I kind of think their Saint John's is just going

300
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,000
to abuse them up front. You kind of mentioned it,

301
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,679
the where's the rim defense gonna come from the front

302
00:15:02,679 --> 00:15:03,000
line of.

303
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:03,919
Speaker 3: Baylor being weak?

304
00:15:04,759 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: I think, you know, you go back to yesterday, Iowa

305
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,080
State maybe a little bit better equipped to disrupt Saint

306
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,200
John's guards and I don't know that Baylor does that

307
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,919
to them. So I too like Saint John's in a

308
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:18,000
bounce back spot here.

309
00:15:18,799 --> 00:15:19,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna do that.

310
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,799
Speaker 1: And so uh yeah, we will. We will do what

311
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:25,879
we do on a daily basis. We will lock in

312
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,960
the three team er. I'll get a quick promotion and

313
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000
it's it is a five dollars Tuesday at wager Talk

314
00:15:31,039 --> 00:15:33,960
all handicappers, we'll have a play up for five bucks.

315
00:15:34,039 --> 00:15:37,360
So so check my page out, check all the handicappers page.

316
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:41,559
That is the promo on Tuesday. And yeah, well we'll

317
00:15:41,639 --> 00:15:44,600
keep we'll kind of you know, lock it in the

318
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,000
parlay as we go along. But that's certainly a clubhouse leader.

319
00:15:48,039 --> 00:15:51,279
I think right now, what would be Saint John's minus

320
00:15:51,519 --> 00:15:55,159
the points? All right, let's go to the chat because

321
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,440
while I'm while I'm on the topic, so I'll i'll

322
00:15:58,159 --> 00:16:02,799
I'll give one out that I bet that I that's

323
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,960
not going to go in the parlay, and I'll explain why,

324
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,679
and then I'm also going to give a chance to

325
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,039
tell me if I should play back or not. So

326
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,480
I am pretty confident that Lipsey is out for Iowa

327
00:16:15,519 --> 00:16:18,879
State today. I think the line move would suggest that

328
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,240
I put this in late last night while I was

329
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,639
up sweating out Maryland UNLV at like one in the morning.

330
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,799
I took Creighton plus nine and a half. Had a

331
00:16:27,799 --> 00:16:29,759
feeling I was going to I was going to end

332
00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:33,399
up with a good number there, and part of my

333
00:16:33,679 --> 00:16:38,519
reasoning for that was my number already leaned Crayton. Regardless

334
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,039
at that number, even if Lipsey was in. Now he's out.

335
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,360
Now I have a good number. But like matchup wise,

336
00:16:45,399 --> 00:16:48,799
would do you do you like Iowa State at the

337
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,120
new number? How are you seeing Iowa State Creyton?

338
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 2: These teams already played the game didn't count, but they

339
00:16:56,039 --> 00:17:00,360
played this October in the exhibition slate Iowa State, who

340
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,039
I'm almost certain had no tame and lipsy in that one. Actually,

341
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,680
I do know they had no tame and Lipsey in

342
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,559
that one they killed Craton. I think they won by seventeen.

343
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,119
And essentially the way the game went was Creighton, like

344
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,720
they always do, forced a lot of isolation and non

345
00:17:16,799 --> 00:17:21,640
Taman Lipsey guards stunk at it because Killion Toure and

346
00:17:21,799 --> 00:17:24,000
Jamie jamri On Bateman, who will have to play much

347
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,440
bigger roles here, are just role players. They're not on

348
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,759
ball guys. And Mala mom Chilovich is more of an

349
00:17:28,759 --> 00:17:31,440
off ball than a non ball as well. And then

350
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:36,519
Iowa States pressure and aggression just killed Creighton, who doesn't

351
00:17:36,519 --> 00:17:39,079
have a lead guard. Nick Graves is on the ball

352
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,599
the most, but he's not a great shooter. Blake Harper

353
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,680
is a little bit shaky kind of point forward, but

354
00:17:44,759 --> 00:17:48,759
stepping up three levels of competition after Howard, and this

355
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,400
was just a defensive slug fest. Now, obviously teams were

356
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,000
tinkering trying things out. Owen Freeman didn't play, though granted

357
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,960
Owen Freeman barely played yesterday because he couldn't get a rebound.

358
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,799
Iowa State is good enough to win this game by

359
00:18:02,839 --> 00:18:06,599
ten without Tam and Lipsey, but it is going to

360
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,200
be a lot tougher. The margin for Era is going

361
00:18:08,279 --> 00:18:10,039
to be small, They're gonna have to play an a game.

362
00:18:10,599 --> 00:18:12,319
I don't know if they play an a game after

363
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,880
a super emotional win. I do think they hang on

364
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,119
and win this one. But obviously double digits is a

365
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,319
pretty significant number to cover when you were talking about

366
00:18:21,319 --> 00:18:23,480
a Creighton team that is pretty desperate for a win

367
00:18:23,519 --> 00:18:24,119
at this point.

368
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that that was my thought process with playing

369
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,319
the nine and a half and just saying, you know what,

370
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:31,960
I'll play it.

371
00:18:32,039 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 3: I'll go to bed, I'll see what happens in the morning.

372
00:18:34,519 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: Like worst case scenario, I think I'm gonna end up

373
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,240
with a good number at nine and a half. If

374
00:18:39,279 --> 00:18:41,799
I'm right about Lipsey being out, You're gonna have a

375
00:18:41,839 --> 00:18:44,720
young backcourt in Iowa State. It's still like, you know

376
00:18:44,799 --> 00:18:46,839
you still I think you made a really good point.

377
00:18:47,279 --> 00:18:50,039
You still have to win by ten, Like Iowa State

378
00:18:50,079 --> 00:18:52,559
can very well win this game. Maybe it's not by ten.

379
00:18:53,839 --> 00:18:57,440
The I guess the devil's advocate would be, you know,

380
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,160
Iowa Statesmen a team the last couple of years that

381
00:19:00,319 --> 00:19:03,480
like they'll have a guy out, the sharp guys will

382
00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,119
bet the other side and they just come out and

383
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,480
win by twenty five. Anyway, Like it's no big deal,

384
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,960
and that is certainly a concern of mine.

385
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:11,640
Speaker 3: I do see that.

386
00:19:11,759 --> 00:19:13,599
Speaker 1: Like, as soon as this hits six and a half,

387
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,319
it seems to have popped back up to seven most places.

388
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,400
So if we're just having a betting conversation here, it

389
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,759
looks like it looks like the resistance point is six

390
00:19:23,799 --> 00:19:27,359
and a half, where folks are just like, yeah, like,

391
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,720
I'll roll the dice with Iowa State without Lipsey at

392
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,279
minus six and a half, and I can't really disagree

393
00:19:34,319 --> 00:19:35,799
with that. I'll have to you know, again, this is

394
00:19:35,839 --> 00:19:39,079
a two PM tip. I am locked in with a

395
00:19:39,079 --> 00:19:42,400
good number on Creton. Maybe I'll play for a middle

396
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,559
for a little bit less, but at the very least,

397
00:19:45,559 --> 00:19:48,200
it is going to be difficult, in my opinion, without

398
00:19:48,319 --> 00:19:51,039
Lipsey for Iowa State to win this game by double digits.

399
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:55,359
Well they still win, maybe I think double digits could

400
00:19:55,359 --> 00:20:00,799
be difficult. It's fair, all right, let's hit chat and

401
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,039
by you bets. That's my buddy, Keith Landry, he says,

402
00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:07,400
Otzenburger coach and McDermott for years. These two highly respect

403
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,920
each other and know each other well. Could see this

404
00:20:10,079 --> 00:20:14,079
game being within ten by you. I hope you are right.

405
00:20:14,519 --> 00:20:17,039
Because if I do play back, it won't be for

406
00:20:17,079 --> 00:20:20,200
the full amount, so it will be uh, you know,

407
00:20:20,839 --> 00:20:23,160
I will I will need a Creighton cover of nine

408
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,359
and a half one way or another. All right, let's go,

409
00:20:27,839 --> 00:20:32,079
Let's go back to the MIAK here. Costly says, anyone

410
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:37,839
got action on Rider Compenstate. Rider's kind of a mess

411
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:41,079
right now. Riders school might be closed if they don't

412
00:20:41,079 --> 00:20:42,880
get some money. Like I think they're one hundred and

413
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,039
thirty million in debt at that school right now. It's

414
00:20:47,079 --> 00:20:51,119
a it's kind of a mess. I know, Kevin Badget's

415
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,440
been there forever. He's like vowed to like help any

416
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,039
way possible. The reason I bring it up is I

417
00:20:58,079 --> 00:21:02,160
wonder if that's crept into athletics at all. I mean,

418
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,000
this is the this is like, I mean, this drop

419
00:21:06,079 --> 00:21:08,400
off for them is like in the MAC Conference, Like

420
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,960
they sort of went from a team that was always

421
00:21:12,039 --> 00:21:15,079
kind of in the mix to now they're just they're

422
00:21:15,079 --> 00:21:17,279
probably gonna finish last this year. At least they are

423
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,960
projected to finish very close to the bottom of the league.

424
00:21:21,599 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 3: Let me head over to the extra board to find

425
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:25,720
a current number on this one.

426
00:21:26,079 --> 00:21:26,279
Speaker 2: Nine.

427
00:21:27,759 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: See now my problem here, Matt is Copp and State,

428
00:21:30,279 --> 00:21:32,079
I think is one of the worst teams in the country.

429
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:37,640
So is Ryder bad enough where you're willing to take

430
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,519
cop and State with the points or where you lay

431
00:21:39,519 --> 00:21:40,160
it with Ryder?

432
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,079
Speaker 3: That is the question everyone's dying to know.

433
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 2: I don't think that Riders should be nine points fit

434
00:21:49,039 --> 00:21:52,519
and favorites about anyone in the country other than Mississippi

435
00:21:52,559 --> 00:21:54,720
Valley State. Now, the flip side of that is, if

436
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,480
you're looking at Kenpom, Copp and State is the second

437
00:21:57,559 --> 00:22:01,559
worst team in the country behind Mississippi Valley State. So

438
00:22:02,039 --> 00:22:05,160
the thing with Ryder, it's hard to really think about

439
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,680
because you see the results and they got absolutely murdered

440
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,359
by Houston. They got murdered by Rutgers, who then turn

441
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,839
around and lost by fifteen the Central Connecticut Ryder has

442
00:22:13,839 --> 00:22:16,279
the second toughest schedule in the country so far.

443
00:22:16,759 --> 00:22:19,079
Speaker 1: They've played junior Rutgers, Texas, Houston.

444
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:20,319
Speaker 3: Sorry I didn't mean to cut you offense.

445
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 2: They've played the second hardest and number one in terms

446
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:26,640
of defensive ratings. So they've played the toughest defensive schedule

447
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,079
in the country. So when you look and see that

448
00:22:28,079 --> 00:22:31,039
they have the worst shooting numbers in the entire country. Well,

449
00:22:31,519 --> 00:22:34,559
that makes sense. They've played four really good defensive teams

450
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,799
compon state, much better defensive than offensive, but they're not

451
00:22:38,839 --> 00:22:42,839
particularly good. And they've played two sub two hundred teams,

452
00:22:43,519 --> 00:22:47,359
but they got murdered in both of them. LaSalle twenty eight,

453
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:52,920
Central Michigan twenty three, two completely non competitive teams. When

454
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,720
you hear that, you think close, like when Bingham, Like

455
00:22:57,079 --> 00:22:59,640
we just talked about it. Maryland Eastern Shore went Tokenisius

456
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,400
and played Canisius and Minghamton, two awful teams the final spreads,

457
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,359
and those ones were both relatively close. This this is

458
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,519
probably close. I don't think you should do anything with that,

459
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,440
but yeah, Ryder nine is a lot of plaints.

460
00:23:17,279 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 1: Hampton is up to minus five since we talked about it,

461
00:23:20,279 --> 00:23:24,640
so they someone agreed out there, because Hampton has gotten

462
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,240
slammed over like the last twenty minutes or so, probably

463
00:23:27,319 --> 00:23:28,240
up to where it should be.

464
00:23:28,319 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 3: So uh, I think it was Garth.

465
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: I think you have a good bet with Hampton if

466
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,519
you took minus two and a half back to this

467
00:23:33,599 --> 00:23:35,079
as far as this game is concerned.

468
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 3: So my buddy Aaron Kidd.

469
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 1: Very he's a ball knower and he's also a very

470
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,880
big Virginia fan goes to a lot of games, texting

471
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,839
me when he was at that Virginia Rider game and said,

472
00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:50,920
you know, Flashburton looks like he's a stud that should

473
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,279
be very good in the MAC.

474
00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,079
Speaker 3: I agreed with him on that standpoint.

475
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,920
Speaker 1: I guess that that come you know, I come back

476
00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,960
to like Zion Cruz was a guy as a MAC guy.

477
00:24:00,039 --> 00:24:02,559
I watch a lot of Mac basketball, m AAC. I

478
00:24:02,599 --> 00:24:06,240
know we're changing the name finally apparently of the conference,

479
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,559
so there's no more confusion. But I really liked I

480
00:24:09,599 --> 00:24:12,480
was very high on Cruise coming in last year.

481
00:24:12,519 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 3: Now he's in year two at Ryders.

482
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,960
Speaker 1: So it's like, I look at this Rider team, I

483
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,440
look at comp and State like Riders like significantly better

484
00:24:20,559 --> 00:24:21,240
in my opinion.

485
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,680
Speaker 3: Still, but I'm kind of with you, Like laying.

486
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 1: Nine is is awfully difficult based on just sort of

487
00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,039
what they look like so far, what they look like

488
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,880
on paper outside of those guards. It's it's very difficult

489
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,160
to lay nine.

490
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:41,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, it's a it's a lot of points in

491
00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,640
a game that will be very slow and not a

492
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:43,960
lot of.

493
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,559
Speaker 1: Steven I I, well, I disagree a little bit.

494
00:24:51,079 --> 00:24:53,519
Speaker 3: Ryder has a little bit of a home court edge.

495
00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:53,839
That was.

496
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,519
Speaker 1: That's always when the Mac schools don't like to go

497
00:24:57,559 --> 00:25:00,160
there for whatever reason. But it's like when I ever

498
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:03,119
Sienna is good. I feel like they always get tripped

499
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,559
up at Ryder. But maybe to that point, like that's February.

500
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,160
It's a small gym, they have a crowd. I don't

501
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:13,240
know how the crowd's gonna be Thanksgiving Tuesday at Riders,

502
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,519
so we'll see about that. But I don't think they've

503
00:25:15,519 --> 00:25:18,799
had a home game yet outside of a non board game,

504
00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,440
non d one, so maybe.

505
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:21,640
Speaker 3: They will get some fans in attendance.

506
00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:25,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right.

507
00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:29,799
Speaker 3: Let's go back. Let's go back to the chat.

508
00:25:31,039 --> 00:25:33,559
Speaker 1: Someone says it's a first live show. We very much

509
00:25:33,599 --> 00:25:36,599
appreciate you tuning in. If you missed the show live,

510
00:25:36,759 --> 00:25:39,039
heading over to the Wager Talking to YouTube channel and

511
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,599
you can watch this on replay.

512
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 3: While you're there, drop a comment.

513
00:25:43,279 --> 00:25:45,079
Speaker 1: I know I saw a lot of the comments yesterday

514
00:25:45,599 --> 00:25:49,440
or like yeah, you guys were trash. Yeah, yesterday was

515
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,079
probably our worst show, but I also have we've had

516
00:25:53,079 --> 00:25:55,720
shows where we've hit like everything, so we needed to

517
00:25:55,759 --> 00:25:57,000
keep that same energy.

518
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:58,279
Speaker 3: And I had one of my best days yesterday.

519
00:25:58,319 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 1: So I'll trade the bad show for the big client

520
00:26:02,319 --> 00:26:04,720
pick day sort of any day of the week, I guess.

521
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,799
But we want to win them all. That's always the goal,

522
00:26:07,079 --> 00:26:10,319
and we are going to try to win more bets today.

523
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:11,240
Speaker 3: That's that's the plan.

524
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,039
Speaker 1: We'll lock in a parlay by the end of the

525
00:26:13,079 --> 00:26:17,720
show and yeah, let's get Let's.

526
00:26:17,519 --> 00:26:18,079
Speaker 3: Go to Ethan.

527
00:26:18,759 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 1: Ethan came to the Bowling Green game with Brian Power

528
00:26:21,759 --> 00:26:24,839
and I great time with him checking out Bowling Green

529
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,640
Lamoyne a couple of weeks ago. I know he's a

530
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:31,359
Michigan State fan, So Ethan any opinion on East Carolina

531
00:26:31,759 --> 00:26:32,559
Michigan State.

532
00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 3: He's not super familiar with ECU. Matt.

533
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,279
Speaker 1: I think this is kind of like one of the

534
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,720
lesser tournaments. I was a little surprised to see Michigan

535
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,039
State pop up in this field.

536
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:43,359
Speaker 3: They're a big.

537
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 1: Favorite against East Carolina. What can you can you tell

538
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:47,400
Ethan about this game?

539
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:50,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is less of a tournament and more of

540
00:26:51,039 --> 00:26:53,559
Michigan State and North Carolina wanted to play each other,

541
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,039
and they wanted to also get a secondary game in there,

542
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,720
so they were able to find two teams in this

543
00:26:59,759 --> 00:27:02,279
case Aint Moantaventure, East Carolina that wanted to play a

544
00:27:02,279 --> 00:27:05,440
power conference team. Everyone's happy. Everyone gets two games. We

545
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:09,640
can all they are unwarmed. I believe they're in Florida. Yeah,

546
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,759
pt Meyers. Everyone's happy East Carolina. If you're a regression

547
00:27:13,799 --> 00:27:18,359
type person, which I definitely can be in certain situations somehow,

548
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,240
and it feels impossible. Bottom fifteen in the country in

549
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:27,240
three point offense and three point defense, that's impossible through

550
00:27:27,319 --> 00:27:30,359
four games to be shooting under twenty three percent and

551
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,640
to be allowing forty one and a half percent. That

552
00:27:32,759 --> 00:27:38,319
three point gulf of nineteen percent is insane, like you,

553
00:27:39,079 --> 00:27:42,400
that cannot last for any longer. Michigan State, of course,

554
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,880
the whole story when they just played Kentucky was they

555
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:46,720
can't shoot, and they had the best shooting game in

556
00:27:46,759 --> 00:27:49,000
their lives. So if you don't believe in regression, I

557
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,039
would say, watch that game. Regression is real. But then

558
00:27:52,039 --> 00:27:55,720
they went right back to under thirty percent against Detroit

559
00:27:55,759 --> 00:27:57,480
Mercy in the game they won by twenty eight. I

560
00:27:57,519 --> 00:28:01,000
believe they were favored by more. Michigan's State not much

561
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:02,920
of a look ahead team because tom Izzo is a

562
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,400
very focused man. But obviously you got to think about

563
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,200
look ahead at least a little bit. They get North

564
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,319
Carolina in two days. East Carolina is going to allow

565
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,319
teams to shoot a little bit worse than three. Eventually

566
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,839
they're gonna hit the couple. Eventually they have like under

567
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,960
fifteen makes in the year, and they have a couple

568
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,319
of massive, massive dudes. They're the starting center GEO m

569
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:28,359
Maajuru also former Siena guy. He's one of the biggest

570
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,440
just like physically largest men in the country. They have

571
00:28:31,519 --> 00:28:35,440
two other six to ten guys, then they got sorry,

572
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,200
they have three other six to ten guys and then

573
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,119
a six eight guy. So they have the physicality to

574
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,880
not get absolutely overwhelmed by Michigan State. Think about the

575
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:48,200
huge line, think about Michigan State not dominating down low

576
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,079
with ECUs size atypical of the mid major, and think

577
00:28:51,079 --> 00:28:54,359
about East Carolina getting so three point luck, and then

578
00:28:54,359 --> 00:28:57,640
you're thinking twenty might be a lot.

579
00:28:59,599 --> 00:28:59,799
Speaker 3: Yes.

580
00:29:00,079 --> 00:29:02,759
Speaker 1: So the day that you went to that Saint John's

581
00:29:02,759 --> 00:29:05,240
Alabama game, I was up in East Lansing and I

582
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,880
got to see Michigan State play Arkansas. Great game was

583
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,359
an awesome time, fantastic environment. My big takeaway from that

584
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:16,119
game was if Michigan State could make a three, they

585
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,599
would have won this game by fifteen twenty points. I

586
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:22,319
mean they were, they led the majority of the game,

587
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,920
a lot of the game, and I think they were

588
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,960
like one for fourteen from three. So you goes back

589
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,119
to something that you talked about right at the top.

590
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,920
If East Carolina is gonna give three pointers up like

591
00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,799
that's you know, if you're helping Michigan State right there,

592
00:29:38,279 --> 00:29:40,680
if you know, if you're gonna kind of not defend

593
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,599
the three point arc and they're gonna get good looks

594
00:29:43,039 --> 00:29:45,440
because they're obviously going to create and transition.

595
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 3: They've got size they can get in the paint.

596
00:29:48,279 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: So this is a huge number and I think it's

597
00:29:51,759 --> 00:29:52,839
I think it's ticked.

598
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:53,519
Speaker 3: Up even a little bit.

599
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: I think at the opener I would have maybe leaned

600
00:29:56,039 --> 00:30:00,960
Michigan State. Now I know I had the opener jotted down.

601
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,400
Is twenty one and a half? Are we up to

602
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,599
like twenty three and a half twenty four right now?

603
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:06,559
I think that might be where we're at.

604
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 3: I'm trying.

605
00:30:08,799 --> 00:30:11,480
Speaker 1: I know, there's so many there's so many games, like

606
00:30:11,519 --> 00:30:15,119
even like two huge screens, I still lose my spot

607
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,759
with how many time one and a half? So that

608
00:30:18,759 --> 00:30:20,720
that's come down, so twenty one and a half down

609
00:30:20,799 --> 00:30:25,039
to twenty. These twenty point spreads are tough for me. Typically,

610
00:30:25,119 --> 00:30:28,559
if I'm like, I'll play a twenty plus point underdog.

611
00:30:28,599 --> 00:30:30,519
If I like it, like I had Radford last night,

612
00:30:30,559 --> 00:30:33,440
that was a winner. I yeah, Ethan, I see it.

613
00:30:33,519 --> 00:30:36,240
Opener was twenty three and a half down to twenty

614
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,319
and a half. Michigan is minus twenty. I'm not big

615
00:30:40,359 --> 00:30:43,160
on laying twenty points, like almost regardless of what the

616
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,920
scenario is. I just it's not the way I really

617
00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,759
care to bet, so I'll probably I'm just gonna sit

618
00:30:49,799 --> 00:30:53,599
that one out of making a sort of play there

619
00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:57,160
either way. But I do think if Michigan State's hitting threes,

620
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,240
it's probably getting out of hand at.

621
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,119
Speaker 2: Something less likely even likely.

622
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, yeah, because they turned around and didn't shoot

623
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,440
it particularly well against San Jose State, that that's gonna

624
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,839
be their undoing this year is the ability.

625
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 3: To knock down an outside shop for sure.

626
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:21,799
Speaker 1: Okay, let's move on. Let me get the I threw

627
00:31:21,839 --> 00:31:24,839
the NC State and zip up bond just because I

628
00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:28,599
needed something to wear today. But we should talk about

629
00:31:28,599 --> 00:31:33,039
that game you talked about. You brought up Michael Ellie

630
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,079
and then you know, it made me think of a

631
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,200
time at Siana when we had guys like Jordan, like

632
00:31:39,279 --> 00:31:43,279
Jalen Pickett, like Jvon McCollum, Jordan King, all all of

633
00:31:43,319 --> 00:31:48,519
these these good players, and that era was Shaheen Holloway

634
00:31:48,519 --> 00:31:52,960
era at Saint Peter's and I can remember, like it's

635
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,880
tail is all this time, Sianna's rolling along, everything's working great,

636
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,400
We're blowing teams out by ten to fifteen points and

637
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,960
then we have to go play Shaheen Holloway Saint Peter's

638
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:02,960
team and get.

639
00:32:02,759 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 3: Punched right in the mouth.

640
00:32:04,119 --> 00:32:07,319
Speaker 1: And that is what happened to NC State yesterday, punched

641
00:32:07,319 --> 00:32:09,880
in the mouth by Seaton Hall. They lose a game

642
00:32:10,319 --> 00:32:12,240
that I don't think many thought they were gonna lose.

643
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,440
Now they play Boise State. I kind of think they

644
00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:18,799
bounce back here. What do you think NC State Boise State.

645
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:23,799
Speaker 2: What Shaheen Holloway did was he exposed the one serious

646
00:32:23,799 --> 00:32:26,359
flaw of NC State, which is they have no riom protection.

647
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,279
Van Allen Lubin at six' nine as they're five man

648
00:32:29,319 --> 00:32:32,720
and he is he has one block this. Season he's

649
00:32:32,759 --> 00:32:36,359
one block all. Season Darien williams at the flour at sixty.

650
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,839
Sixth they're. Small obviously they're, aggressive that's What willway. Does

651
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,960
but if you can get past their first line of

652
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,440
defense and get towards the, rim you're gonna score a

653
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,559
lot of. Points And Seaton hall was sixty five percent from.

654
00:32:47,599 --> 00:32:50,880
Two Boise state is two hundred and forty ninth in

655
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,119
the country at two point field goal. Percentage they're not,

656
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,880
big they're not, athletic they don't have a post, presence

657
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,720
they're not overly. Physical that is like music TO Nc

658
00:32:59,799 --> 00:33:03,160
state years when when you can't score, inside EVEN, vcu

659
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,240
who almost took DOWN Nc state fifty eight percent from,

660
00:33:06,279 --> 00:33:09,640
two if you can't dominate on the, interior you have

661
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,680
no chance AGAINST Nc state And Boise state cannot do.

662
00:33:12,799 --> 00:33:16,079
That they they struggled to score inside Against Montana. State

663
00:33:16,119 --> 00:33:18,640
they were sub forty percent from two Against Montana. State,

664
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:21,920
uh they're not going to dominate, inside which MEANS Nc

665
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,880
state's gonna win this game and probably buy a.

666
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: Lot. YEAH I i was In albuquerque last year for a.

667
00:33:31,319 --> 00:33:33,279
Speaker 3: Game it Was New. Mexico Boise.

668
00:33:33,319 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: State shout out to the folks In New mexico because

669
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:36,279
they really took care of.

670
00:33:36,279 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 3: ME i got to basically stand on the court for that.

671
00:33:39,279 --> 00:33:43,119
Speaker 1: Game the pit is awesome and and and the REASON

672
00:33:43,119 --> 00:33:45,319
i bring that up is like one of my biggest

673
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,279
takeaways from that game When boise just got run out

674
00:33:48,279 --> 00:33:51,359
of the building was how it was just how on

675
00:33:51,559 --> 00:33:54,440
athletic they look next to a lot of other teams

676
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:57,279
THAT i already seen that year up close that were

677
00:33:57,319 --> 00:34:00,200
in sort of like similar like like a similar or

678
00:34:00,359 --> 00:34:03,240
like you, know a Ten Mountain west type. Teams and

679
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,839
that was my big takeaway Was boise just really lacks.

680
00:34:07,119 --> 00:34:10,559
Athletes AND i would say that the same is probably

681
00:34:10,559 --> 00:34:14,360
true this. YEAR i haven't been overly impressed with their

682
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:18,039
half court, offense and, so like you, know this is

683
00:34:18,199 --> 00:34:20,119
this is the type of game in my, opinion where

684
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,679
like you, SAID Nc, state the athleticism should sort of reign,

685
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:27,400
supreme AND i just don't Think boise can do What

686
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,840
Seaton hall did to. Them so that this was one

687
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:32,000
on the on the opener of mine six and a,

688
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,960
HALF i had a pretty strong lean TOWARD Nt. STATE

689
00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:38,280
i had not bet it, yet but it would only

690
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,920
BE Nc state in this one for me or pass

691
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:44,000
what is, uh let me see IF i can again

692
00:34:44,119 --> 00:34:47,039
navigating through the board. Here, yeah still six and a.

693
00:34:47,039 --> 00:34:52,000
HALF i mean my numbers like eight and changed. There

694
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,559
that might be a big enough edge to play as

695
00:34:55,599 --> 00:34:57,519
long as like The boise's just as long as those

696
00:34:57,559 --> 00:35:00,360
rims aren't so soft that Every boise SHOT's GOING i

697
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,800
THINK i think you're good WITH Nc, state probably a

698
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:10,480
double digit win for the Wolf. Back, yeah all, right

699
00:35:10,559 --> 00:35:13,480
let's head back to the comments where we're getting to

712
00:35:45,599 --> 00:35:48,159
couple best. Bets SO i knew it was gonna get

713
00:35:48,159 --> 00:35:54,239
brought up at some. POINT i, LISTEN i told you

714
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,639
before the. Show as someone that lives thirty minutes outside Of,

715
00:35:57,639 --> 00:36:00,760
syracuse and even Though i'm not A i didn't grow up,

716
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,920
HERE i root for the local team LIKE i Want

717
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,159
syracuse to do well BECAUSE i like.

718
00:36:06,119 --> 00:36:08,559
Speaker 3: Going to big games at The dome and The.

719
00:36:08,639 --> 00:36:11,960
Speaker 1: Lot we haven't had like a team that was really

720
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,760
worth going to see the last couple of. Years and after,

721
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:18,400
yesterday even Though i'm so disappointed that they missed seventeen

722
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,800
file shots and lost that, GAME i would say The

723
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:22,320
syracuse team might be worth going to.

724
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,800
Speaker 3: See they showed me something. YESTERDAY i thought the defense

725
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:25,239
was really.

726
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,440
Speaker 1: Good they didn't Have Donnie, freeman yet they hung around

727
00:36:28,519 --> 00:36:29,559
with a very Good houston.

728
00:36:29,599 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 3: Team quick.

729
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:35,360
Speaker 1: Turnaround tricky matchup With kansas is this Where freeman being

730
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:36,360
out hurts them a little.

731
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 2: Bit syracuse's interior defense is. Awesome they're really good around the,

732
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,880
rim and that's really important Because, kansas with That Darren

733
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,800
peterson cannot. Shoot the four games they've played now since

734
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,320
he's gotten hurt eight, five four and six. Threes that's

735
00:36:54,519 --> 00:36:57,480
twenty three threes and four. Games that's a very low.

736
00:36:57,559 --> 00:37:01,679
Number that's barely over. Five and those two games At

737
00:37:01,679 --> 00:37:05,119
peterson played in ten and twelve, threes big. Difference so

738
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:09,440
If kansas's only action is really getting, Downhill melbourne councilill

739
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,440
get in the rim, florid but doing the post ups

740
00:37:11,679 --> 00:37:14,320
it's a big problem Against. Syracuse that has proven now

741
00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:17,519
even Against power conference team In, houston who shot thirty

742
00:37:17,599 --> 00:37:21,360
three percent from inside the. Arc syracuse can defend the

743
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,360
hoop at a very high. Level And i'll often like

744
00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,480
throw a red flag if a team is defending the

745
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:30,159
two point arc or the two point area if they're

746
00:37:30,199 --> 00:37:33,679
not blocking. Shots syracuse is seventeenth in the country and block,

747
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,159
rate so they're blocking shots and they're defending the. Rim

748
00:37:37,639 --> 00:37:40,639
kansas has become a defensive team Since peterson went. Out

749
00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,400
syracuse's offense is way better With Donnie freeman he's. OUT

750
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:46,920
i don't think a lot of points in this. Game

751
00:37:47,039 --> 00:37:50,039
that is my. Inclination both teams are going to slow

752
00:37:50,079 --> 00:37:53,239
it down a little, bit and in a slower game

753
00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,320
where not a lot of points are, happening you've got

754
00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:56,679
to lean the dog at least a little.

755
00:37:56,679 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 1: Bit, yeah THAT'S i think that's you've kind of nailed.

756
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:04,320
IT i would say under it is probably the best

757
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,719
way to. GO i think if they didn't JUST i

758
00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,360
would probably Like syracuse more in this. Spot had they

759
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,360
not just like played a game like the one they played,

760
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,039
yesterday lost in the fashion that they, lost left it

761
00:38:16,079 --> 00:38:17,880
all out, there went to, Overtime i'd like them a

762
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:21,000
little bit more. Today BUT i could definitely see a

763
00:38:21,039 --> 00:38:24,599
lower scoring. Game how About William, KYLE i, mean he's,

764
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,159
like what a difference it is Watching syracuse play defense

765
00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,360
when It's William kyle down there instead Of Eddie.

766
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,039
Speaker 2: LAMPKIN i Think william klea could jump Over Eddie.

767
00:38:33,079 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: LAMPKIN i think you're probably. Right you talked about. Blocks

768
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,440
he had six blocks Against Delaware, state ten plus rebounds

769
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,719
in three of the five games he's, played and then

770
00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:48,559
yesterday his first double of the season twelve point ten. Boards,

771
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,760
Yeah syracuse defense was awful the last couple of years at,

772
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:57,719
times like downright, awful especially last, year like they were

773
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,480
just such a. Mess the first year Of, autrey it was, Like,

774
00:39:01,119 --> 00:39:04,119
okay we're we're gonna try to play some, man but

775
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,119
really all that is is just running up and down

776
00:39:06,159 --> 00:39:08,480
the floor and not playing the. Zone and then we

777
00:39:08,519 --> 00:39:11,679
will play the zone a little. Bit this is such

778
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,119
a better defensive team Than syracuse the last couple of

779
00:39:14,159 --> 00:39:17,159
years that you have to almost Play syracuse unders right

780
00:39:17,199 --> 00:39:19,519
now when you can because you're still getting some of

781
00:39:19,519 --> 00:39:21,320
that prior from the past couple of. Years like this

782
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,199
is just a much better Defensive syracuse. Team So i'm with.

783
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:25,760
YOU a low scoring, Game.

784
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,280
Speaker 2: Syracuse zero possessions of zone this. Year.

785
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,559
Speaker 3: Zero, yeah that's what he always wanted to.

786
00:39:31,599 --> 00:39:34,639
Speaker 1: Do that was that was like Something autrey said when

787
00:39:34,679 --> 00:39:37,239
he took, over was we're really going to get away

788
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:38,599
from from playing zone.

789
00:39:39,039 --> 00:39:40,760
Speaker 3: Now maybe maybe it's just the.

790
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,159
Speaker 1: Personnel maybe he's got the personnel to not have to

791
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:46,480
fall back on, it or he's been able to successfully

792
00:39:46,519 --> 00:39:49,679
phase it out at this. Point BUT i agree that

793
00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:54,360
the defense was, very very impressive because Really, houston Typical

794
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:56,599
houston's gonna get in the paint and do whatever they,

795
00:39:56,639 --> 00:39:59,280
want and they were not able to do that. Yesterday,

796
00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:06,840
okay let's head back to the. Chat, So, OKAY i,

797
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:09,960
KNEW i knew the the early games were coming at

798
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,119
some point by. You bets, says let's talk some breakfast

799
00:40:13,159 --> 00:40:17,239
Ball Towson. Liberty, yeah this is a good. Game this

800
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:20,440
is this definitely deserves a spot on the. Show, uh

801
00:40:20,559 --> 00:40:23,039
is this in our ELEVEN am tip. TIME i know

802
00:40:23,079 --> 00:40:27,320
it's one of the early ones. Today Towson. LIBERTY i

803
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:28,920
believe we have a seven.

804
00:40:28,679 --> 00:40:30,199
Speaker 3: And a half on the.

805
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: Number hold on by. You we're Gonna we're gonna give

806
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:39,000
me a second to pull this game. Up T, yeah

807
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,760
here we, go tows And. Liberty this one IS i

808
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,960
believe In, Orlando liberty opened a seven and a half point.

809
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:48,039
Favorite it looks like we're down to six some. Places

810
00:40:48,039 --> 00:40:49,239
do you agree with the Towsand?

811
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 2: Money? YEAH i, mean, listen when the market sees a

812
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,480
team leads the country in three point percentage two weeks

813
00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:59,960
from the, season they're always gonna. Do they're alway gonna

814
00:41:00,079 --> 00:41:03,000
against that. Team it's gonna happen every. Time liberty shooting

815
00:41:03,039 --> 00:41:04,840
forty six percent from, Three so they're, like, okay well

816
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:06,519
they're not this, Good we're going to go against. It

817
00:41:07,159 --> 00:41:09,599
if there's a team that could actually shoot forty six

818
00:41:09,639 --> 00:41:12,400
percent from three on the, year it's This liberty. Team

819
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,480
they have so many elite shooting options THAT i think

820
00:41:15,519 --> 00:41:19,599
it's totally possible you flipped that. Switch. Thousand we were

821
00:41:19,639 --> 00:41:22,880
talking earlier About East carolina and how they were impossibly

822
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,800
bad at both offensive and defensive three point. Shooting towsand

823
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:30,039
is impossibly bad at shooting and impossibly good at defending.

824
00:41:30,119 --> 00:41:35,280
It tousand games, combined on average have both teams shooting

825
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:39,239
a collective twenty four percent from. Three basic, math that's

826
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:41,920
half of What liberty is shooting from. Three so one

827
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,840
thing is going to. Break either nobody hits threes In

828
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:48,760
towsand games Or liberty hits a lot of. Threes there

829
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,840
is something is going to change in this. One so

830
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,840
it's very tough to predict which side of that pendulum

831
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,039
is going to. Go so you got to think about

832
00:41:57,039 --> 00:41:59,800
extras or other things that aren't prepunt. Shooting even though

833
00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,199
the aggression is a big piece of. Games right, Now

834
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:04,840
liberty is the smallest team in the, country the single

835
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:09,199
shortest team per Kenbom And towsand's elite on the offensive

836
00:42:09,199 --> 00:42:14,800
and defensive. Glass If liberty has any ability to rebound this,

837
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:18,079
basketball they'll win this, game probably by more than the spread.

838
00:42:18,119 --> 00:42:21,440
Suggests But liberty has not played a single team the

839
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,960
top one hundred in offensive rebounding right Yet towsand is

840
00:42:25,079 --> 00:42:27,480
very much in the top one. Hundred If towson wins

841
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:30,039
the rebounding battle by ten fifteen, points they could win

842
00:42:30,079 --> 00:42:32,400
this game out. Right SO i think if you're a

843
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:36,199
believer In towson's, rebounding you're a believer in them on this.

844
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,760
Spread and if you're a believer In liberty, shooting you're

845
00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:42,239
going to take them with the. Points you.

846
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,360
Speaker 1: KNOW i haven't gotten involved for or Against tawson, yet

847
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,960
but coming into the, season knowing they Had Tyler tahata

848
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:54,480
And Dylan williamson, BACK i thought that they would improve

849
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,559
offensively this, year LIKE i thought like looking at this.

850
00:42:58,599 --> 00:43:01,360
Team so of Course towson ends up having a GREAT

851
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:05,199
caia season last, year gets upset in the in the conference.

852
00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,920
Speaker 3: Tournament they return.

853
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,599
Speaker 1: Guys THAT i don't know THAT i fully expected them

854
00:43:10,599 --> 00:43:13,000
to be able to. Retain so that was like very

855
00:43:13,039 --> 00:43:15,519
positive that they were able to bring those guys. Back

856
00:43:15,559 --> 00:43:18,480
and yet to your, point through what five or six,

857
00:43:18,519 --> 00:43:20,880
games they're still outside the top three hundred nationally in

858
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:23,480
field goal percentage forty two point two percent from the,

859
00:43:23,519 --> 00:43:25,599
field and they are one of the worst three point

860
00:43:25,639 --> 00:43:28,159
shooting teams in the, Country so it looks like that

861
00:43:28,199 --> 00:43:32,679
hasn't really. Changed and, YEAH i, mean if you're if

862
00:43:32,679 --> 00:43:35,480
you can't hit shots And liberty gets, hot like it's

863
00:43:37,119 --> 00:43:38,920
it could be a ten point game pretty, Quickly SO

864
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,239
i don't. KNOW i certainly am not going to take

865
00:43:41,679 --> 00:43:43,679
a worse number THAN i could have got at the. Open,

866
00:43:44,519 --> 00:43:46,280
LIKE i THINK i could only play back at it

867
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,800
at this, point it would be probably it would probably

868
00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:49,639
be liberty.

869
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 3: Or pass for. Me just at the current.

870
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 2: Number this game is also going to be insanely. Slow

871
00:43:55,199 --> 00:43:55,679
it's so.

872
00:43:55,960 --> 00:44:03,800
Speaker 1: Slow Jay buff's in the, Chat buff's acues. FAN i

873
00:44:04,679 --> 00:44:09,199
know he's. HE i feel like he was was about

874
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,880
that performance yesterday though IF i remember, correctly he was

875
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:15,760
sort of, saying like they're gonna they may come up

876
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:18,480
and show. Up BUT i agreed with the just like

877
00:44:18,519 --> 00:44:20,599
the sheer, TALENT i thought could at least keep it within.

878
00:44:20,639 --> 00:44:24,119
Fourteen but we'll go to another player's air game For.

879
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,440
Buff he, says DID i miss? This? No you did

880
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,440
not feel like we're getting some value With rutgers now

881
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:33,480
at the current? Number do you? Agree he doesn't Think

882
00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:36,599
Notre dame is seven points? Better so back To, Vegas, Matt,

883
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:38,599
Rutgers Notre. Dame how do you see this?

884
00:44:38,639 --> 00:44:44,639
Speaker 2: One So rutgers is one cover this year they have

885
00:44:44,679 --> 00:44:47,039
not covered in any of their other. Games in the

886
00:44:47,079 --> 00:44:50,079
one game they. Covered they got to the free throw

887
00:44:50,159 --> 00:44:54,320
line an insane amount that took thirty three free, throws

888
00:44:55,079 --> 00:44:56,679
and they haven't covered any other. Game and then the

889
00:44:56,679 --> 00:45:01,039
one game where they were, significantly significantly significant we below

890
00:45:01,119 --> 00:45:03,840
projected was. There they were eighteen point favorites Against Central.

891
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:06,559
Connecticut they lose that right by. Thirteen in that, game

892
00:45:06,599 --> 00:45:08,519
they get to the free throw line ten, times by

893
00:45:08,519 --> 00:45:12,159
far the. Lowest Notre dame is not a great defensive,

894
00:45:12,199 --> 00:45:15,000
team but one thing they're very good, at at least

895
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,800
historically Under Michael, shrewsbury is preventing free. Throws you're gonna

896
00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,119
play really soft. Defense they're gonna let make you beat

897
00:45:21,159 --> 00:45:22,840
them from over the. Top they're not gonna let you

898
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:24,280
get into the. Paint they're not gonna let you get

899
00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:27,119
to the free throw. Line If rutgers doesn't get to

900
00:45:27,159 --> 00:45:29,039
the paint or the free throw, line they're not. Scoring

901
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:33,199
so as much as this is a big, number as

902
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,320
much As Notre dame struggles to score in their own,

903
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:40,039
RIGHT i just don't see How rutgers scores enough points

904
00:45:40,039 --> 00:45:40,480
to compete.

905
00:45:40,519 --> 00:45:45,119
Speaker 3: Here, YEAH i kind of agree with.

906
00:45:45,159 --> 00:45:50,079
Speaker 1: That the trying to think the one game That rutgers,

907
00:45:50,159 --> 00:45:53,920
COVERED i believe WAS i THINK i can tell you

908
00:45:53,960 --> 00:45:56,079
off off. MEMORY i believe it was The rider game

909
00:45:56,119 --> 00:45:58,159
BECAUSE i Had rider plus the points in that game

910
00:45:58,199 --> 00:46:01,039
and it was just, yeah they they lived at the foul.

911
00:46:01,119 --> 00:46:05,320
Line they also LIKE i feel like they kind of you,

912
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,679
know it almost is a testament maybe to how Bad

913
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:11,199
rider is this, year much much worse THAN i thought

914
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,400
they were on A november, Fifth Like i've Downgraded ryder

915
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,039
Since november, fifth so.

916
00:46:17,639 --> 00:46:18,880
Speaker 3: You, know notre.

917
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,599
Speaker 1: Dame i'll point out they definitely took some respected money

918
00:46:21,679 --> 00:46:22,400
yesterday Against.

919
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:23,519
Speaker 3: Kansas it didn't work.

920
00:46:23,559 --> 00:46:26,800
Speaker 1: OUT i have a feeling that's probably why the number

921
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:29,039
is gone to where it, is like a lot of

922
00:46:29,079 --> 00:46:32,440
times if you see if you see some sharp money

923
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,960
come in and hit a team and it, Loses especially

924
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:39,280
in this, FORMAT i feel like often you'll see the

925
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:43,639
same team get hit the next. Day almost it almost

926
00:46:43,679 --> 00:46:45,920
LIKE i don't even know if there's a reason for,

927
00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:50,159
it it's just like how it works. Out SO i

928
00:46:50,199 --> 00:46:53,320
got to my screen is not showing like a correct

929
00:46:53,320 --> 00:46:53,960
opener at this?

930
00:46:54,039 --> 00:46:55,280
Speaker 3: Point what did this?

931
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:57,559
Speaker 1: Open like five and a? Half do you know what

932
00:46:57,639 --> 00:46:58,119
the opener?

933
00:46:58,239 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 3: Was off?

934
00:46:58,519 --> 00:47:02,599
Speaker 1: Hand that was MY i don't, either but, anyway it

935
00:47:02,639 --> 00:47:04,840
looks like it looks like we're at like seven seven

936
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:08,000
and a half most. Places But i'm also with. YOU

937
00:47:08,079 --> 00:47:12,559
i just LIKE i think right Now rutgers long term

938
00:47:12,679 --> 00:47:13,599
is doing what they have to.

939
00:47:13,639 --> 00:47:15,159
Speaker 3: Do i've talked about it a couple of.

940
00:47:15,199 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 1: Times last, Year Ace Bailey Dylan harper was not A

941
00:47:19,519 --> 00:47:22,000
Steve pikel type. TEAM i think he needs to start

942
00:47:22,039 --> 00:47:24,920
from scratch and. Rebuild but there is no talent on this,

943
00:47:25,039 --> 00:47:28,599
roster so it's it's hard to make a case For.

944
00:47:28,679 --> 00:47:33,519
RUTGERS i didn't mind them like plus sixteen and a half,

945
00:47:33,639 --> 00:47:36,400
yesterday but that was more of a fade Of tennessee

946
00:47:36,559 --> 00:47:39,639
and they were just non. Existent SO i have no

947
00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:43,960
interest in coming back with them. Here this is an interesting.

948
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:45,400
One this is an early one THAT i kind of

949
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,320
have a little bit of an opinion. On trev, says

950
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:52,440
let's Talk DELAWARE. Uncg delaware has the size and can

951
00:47:52,599 --> 00:47:57,719
Abuse greensboro from. Three they also Have Justin fernandez, back

952
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,119
WHO i think is gonna matter at some. Point AND

953
00:48:00,199 --> 00:48:02,760
i know it didn't matter Against Southern, illinois but that

954
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:05,519
might have been a bad matchup for. THEM i kind

955
00:48:05,519 --> 00:48:07,880
of Like delaware. Here how are you Seeing Delaware? GREENSBOROUGH

956
00:48:09,199 --> 00:48:10,639
i don't like either team really at.

957
00:48:10,639 --> 00:48:14,719
Speaker 2: All they're similar in the sense that both of them

958
00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:19,119
are gonna allow a ton of, threes and Obviously delaware

959
00:48:19,119 --> 00:48:21,079
is the better three point shooting team and that favors.

960
00:48:21,119 --> 00:48:23,639
Them But Jamal brown missed their last. Game he's at

961
00:48:23,679 --> 00:48:26,320
fifty three percent from. Three if he's, out that's a huge.

962
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:31,519
Loss and then talk about you AND. Cg delaware, is

963
00:48:31,559 --> 00:48:34,119
like you, mentioned a, lot much way taller of a

964
00:48:34,159 --> 00:48:37,360
team U ncg bottom ten in the country can. Height

965
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,360
But delaware is not going to crash the glass at.

966
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,400
All they're not gonna get to the paint at. All

967
00:48:43,679 --> 00:48:45,280
there's gonna be no free throws in this. Game both

968
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:47,320
teams are gonna protect the, paint pack it, in shoot

969
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,079
a lot of, threes and not get to the rim

970
00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:52,360
in a three point shooting. Contest, YEAH i Prefer. Delaware

971
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,280
i'd love to know That Jamal brown is. BACK i

972
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,800
would imagine unlikely given they last played two days ago

973
00:48:57,800 --> 00:49:04,079
and he was. Out But delaware makes, sense especially in

974
00:49:04,079 --> 00:49:06,119
the game that should be pretty slow given both teams

975
00:49:06,119 --> 00:49:06,719
have very small.

976
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:11,719
Speaker 1: Benches, YEAH i think my motivation for A delaware play

977
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,480
would be more of a fate Of, greensboro like this

978
00:49:14,599 --> 00:49:16,840
is the worst team that they've had in a couple of.

979
00:49:16,920 --> 00:49:19,039
YEARS i, mean if you just look at the sheer

980
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:23,000
amount of talent that has left That greensboro roster in

981
00:49:23,039 --> 00:49:25,840
the past couple of, years it kind of makes sense

982
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:29,239
that they're like way down from what they were really

983
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:31,199
like two years ago and then even last year to

984
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:33,360
be able to, like you, know they lost so much

985
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:35,840
from that team two years ago and then they kind

986
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,320
of went out and like lucked their way into Like

987
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:42,440
Kenyon GILES i, think was, like you, know just awesome

988
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:45,840
there last, year and then he leaves and they lost

989
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,480
a couple of other guards from that. Team SO i

990
00:49:48,559 --> 00:49:51,599
kind of want to play Against Greenboro greensboro in. SPOTS

991
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:54,119
i don't know If i'm confident enough In, delaware but

992
00:49:54,119 --> 00:49:57,840
it's certainly the WAY i Lean at this. Point my

993
00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:00,679
number was like right, On so If delaware has an,

994
00:50:00,679 --> 00:50:03,400
INJURY i don't know IF i want to mess with that,

995
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:06,079
game which is of course early tip neutral.

996
00:50:06,159 --> 00:50:07,559
Speaker 3: Court crazier things have.

997
00:50:07,639 --> 00:50:08,039
Speaker 2: Happened.

998
00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:10,599
Speaker 3: Matt there's ten minutes left in the. Show i'm going

999
00:50:10,679 --> 00:50:11,239
to put you on the.

1000
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:14,679
Speaker 1: Spot do you have a best bet or a leg

1001
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:16,119
for the parlay that you want to lock.

1002
00:50:16,199 --> 00:50:20,159
Speaker 2: In let's Go Georgia southern minus one and a half

1003
00:50:21,119 --> 00:50:26,599
AGAINST utsa at nine pm. TONIGHT utsa is a. Disaster they're, really,

1004
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,480
really really not. Good they have one cover Against. Denver

1005
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:34,039
in that, game they shot forty eight percent from three on.

1006
00:50:34,119 --> 00:50:37,119
Volume it's not happening. Again there's thirty percent on the.

1007
00:50:37,199 --> 00:50:41,880
Year lost by seventeen at home Against, siue lost by

1008
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:46,639
eleven At Texas. State then on a neutral yesterday they

1009
00:50:46,639 --> 00:50:49,719
score fifty points and lose by eleven To Abilene. Christian

1010
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:53,719
they're down to eight guys in their. Rotation they don't

1011
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,320
Have Vishauna, lett who was supposed to be there starting point.

1012
00:50:56,320 --> 00:50:59,559
Guard he has not played yet this. Year the talent

1013
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:03,039
is extremely. LOW i don't Trust Awesome klanch at. All

1014
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,599
and Then Georgia. Southern they're a talent not structure. Team

1015
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,199
like if they're playing a team that's, structured that has

1016
00:51:10,199 --> 00:51:13,719
a style that is well, disciplined they'll lose that game

1017
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:16,840
because they get killed on the. Glass they take some

1018
00:51:17,079 --> 00:51:20,440
bad shots, sometimes but they are very. Talented they're very,

1019
00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:22,639
athletic and they're gonna run up and down the floor

1020
00:51:22,679 --> 00:51:25,480
and make you play a lot of, possessions which means they'll.

1021
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:29,039
Win with the talent, disparity they're ranked about the same

1022
00:51:29,079 --> 00:51:33,920
And Ken, pom But Georgia southern plus fort plus forty

1023
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,840
Four Ken pom spots on the year and THEN utsa

1024
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,239
minus ninety and there's not insane three point regression where

1025
00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:43,039
it's like this team's, unlucky this team's. Lucky Georgia southern

1026
00:51:43,079 --> 00:51:45,880
is trending up because they're, better AND utsa is trending

1027
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:49,800
down because they're. Worse i'm not going to get remotely

1028
00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,840
close to THINKING i have any faith in THIS utsa

1029
00:51:52,920 --> 00:51:55,559
team to turn it around with their current, personnel and,

1030
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:58,639
basically even spread give me the better, Team i'm Taking Georgia.

1031
00:51:58,679 --> 00:52:03,119
Speaker 1: Southern, yeah and it looks Like Georgia southern's taken some.

1032
00:52:03,159 --> 00:52:05,199
Money but as far as the parlay is, concerned since

1033
00:52:05,199 --> 00:52:06,800
we're doing a three team Or i'm just gonna Put

1034
00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:09,239
Georgia southern money line in the, PARLAY i mean it's

1035
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,119
gonna gonna turn out plus odds, Anyway so, yeah we'll

1036
00:52:12,159 --> 00:52:15,679
Go Georgia southern money line in the. Parlay and of,

1037
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:18,280
COURSE i, mean if you want to be if if

1038
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,000
viewers want to bet it STRAIGHT i think you could

1039
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:22,599
probably still lay three here if you had.

1040
00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:27,199
Speaker 2: To, now, okay, yeah three or like one and a,

1041
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:27,559
Half like.

1042
00:52:27,639 --> 00:52:31,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah that's the one fun thing about this. Show

1043
00:52:31,199 --> 00:52:33,800
slot ten to eleven Am, Eastern this is when the

1044
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:36,800
board tends to light. Up like a lot of games

1045
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:40,440
move in this. Hour we find him moving on the show.

1046
00:52:40,719 --> 00:52:43,880
Often but, yeah for the, PARLAY i think that's a great,

1047
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:46,320
call and people can make their own. DECISIONS i, mean

1048
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,000
you can play a minus one sixty money line if

1049
00:52:49,039 --> 00:52:51,599
you if you play, accordingly there's nothing wrong with. That

1050
00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:54,400
so uh but, YEAH i got so So bayo bets

1051
00:52:54,400 --> 00:52:57,239
in the chat as a friend of, mine and he

1052
00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:59,239
texted me yesterday it was just like how did.

1053
00:52:59,199 --> 00:53:01,159
Speaker 3: We not Slam Abilene?

1054
00:53:01,199 --> 00:53:03,800
Speaker 1: Christian and it was like probably one of the things

1055
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,159
that with so many games just.

1056
00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:06,920
Speaker 3: Maybe fell through the cracks for.

1057
00:53:07,000 --> 00:53:08,480
Speaker 1: ME i also had a lot of other, plays but,

1058
00:53:08,559 --> 00:53:11,599
yeah that was ONE i WISH i could have gone

1059
00:53:11,639 --> 00:53:15,519
back and bet because for a lot of the things

1060
00:53:15,559 --> 00:53:17,760
that you pointed out right, there WHICH i hope continue

1061
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:22,840
to continue to play out, Tonight i'm gonna Go i'll

1062
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,000
go way off the board here to lock one. In

1063
00:53:25,039 --> 00:53:27,599
people people want early, games, WELL i got an early

1064
00:53:27,639 --> 00:53:30,199
game for. You you're probably not gonna want to watch,

1065
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:34,199
this but it. Is it is an early, game, nonetheless

1066
00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:36,920
and this will be the first leg of our. Parlay

1067
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:39,519
we're gonna head to the extra board IF i can find. It,

1068
00:53:39,599 --> 00:53:43,480
MATT i right at the beginning of the, YEAR i

1069
00:53:43,519 --> 00:53:46,679
read all your. RANKINGS i looked at your, spreadsheet and

1070
00:53:47,159 --> 00:53:50,360
two teams that we seem to really agree on from

1071
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:56,719
a ranking standpoint that stood out to me were how

1072
00:53:56,760 --> 00:54:00,400
low you Had bryant BECAUSE, i as A cia, Guy

1073
00:54:00,679 --> 00:54:03,880
jamie And christian stopped in for a, day and you,

1074
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,079
KNOW i didn't think he was going to do.

1075
00:54:06,199 --> 00:54:06,880
Speaker 3: Much they are.

1076
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,360
Speaker 1: Terrible and then the other one Was, army WHO i

1077
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,000
think is one of the worst teams in the. Country

1078
00:54:11,039 --> 00:54:14,920
that's another one that they very questionable coaching, change AND

1079
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:16,880
i think is kind of coming back to bite them

1080
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:19,599
a little bit because that seems terrible AND i don't

1081
00:54:19,639 --> 00:54:22,239
really know what the purpose of the coaching change. Was

1082
00:54:23,039 --> 00:54:25,800
the program is. NOW i think this is as bad

1083
00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:29,239
as they've been in, years And i've Got army like

1084
00:54:29,519 --> 00:54:32,280
probably a bottom ten team in the. Country they are

1085
00:54:32,280 --> 00:54:35,960
going to play a neutral court game In hackensack. TODAY

1086
00:54:36,079 --> 00:54:39,519
i believe at the home Of Fairley dickinson Against East

1087
00:54:39,719 --> 00:54:43,079
TEXAS a AND, m AND i think this number is

1088
00:54:44,039 --> 00:54:49,079
way too. LOW i could not believe That army started

1089
00:54:49,119 --> 00:54:51,079
to take. Money it's the REASON i kind of haven't

1090
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:53,800
that it. Yet, also like, LISTEN i, MEAN i get,

1091
00:54:53,840 --> 00:54:56,320
It texas At East TEXAS a AND m coming up

1092
00:54:56,400 --> 00:55:00,679
here for AN Mte armies closer in. PROXIMITY i doubt

1093
00:55:00,679 --> 00:55:03,760
anyone's going to these games, anyway So i'm Still i'm

1094
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:06,639
still looking at it as a true neutral. Court but

1095
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:10,880
my number is much higher than three and a half

1096
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,639
or even three some, Places but for the parlay's, Sake

1097
00:55:14,119 --> 00:55:15,840
i'm gonna call it three and a. Half last week

1098
00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:18,199
on the, SHOW i talked About army AND i, said

1099
00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:21,719
when this team finally plays someone in their weight, class

1100
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:24,599
meaning like a competitively lined, game because most Of army's

1101
00:55:24,599 --> 00:55:29,199
games recently fifteen point dog To, maris fifteen points up

1102
00:55:29,199 --> 00:55:33,800
to eighteen points Against, cornell huge underdog To Saint. Thomas and,

1103
00:55:34,039 --> 00:55:37,239
actually To army's, credit they're finding ways to not get

1104
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:40,360
completely run out in these, games which is surprising to.

1105
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:42,400
ME i Thought Saint thomas was going to run them.

1106
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:45,360
OUT i Thought cornell was going to run them, out Even,

1107
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:48,119
marist they managed to keep it a little bit closer

1108
00:55:48,119 --> 00:55:51,280
THAN i. Expected this is the spot WHERE i kind

1109
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:54,039
of want to finally go against them in a game

1110
00:55:54,159 --> 00:55:56,679
where it's like like team versus like, team and we

1111
00:55:56,719 --> 00:55:58,639
only have to HAVE i only have to cover a couple,

1112
00:55:58,679 --> 00:56:01,639
points So i'm gonna Throw East TEXAS a AND m.

1113
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 3: In it is just a fade Of.

1114
00:56:03,159 --> 00:56:06,559
Speaker 1: ARMY i think this team is bad and any follow

1115
00:56:06,639 --> 00:56:08,559
up to, that BECAUSE i know you Had army ranked very.

1116
00:56:08,559 --> 00:56:11,280
Speaker 2: Well, Yeah army is not. Good they've been feist to

1117
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,239
you despite the fact that they haven't hit any. SHOTS

1118
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,880
i bet you the market Likes East, texas Likes army

1119
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:19,119
Because East texas is on a back to back Against Bairley.

1120
00:56:19,159 --> 00:56:22,159
Dickinson East texas is. Deep they play a lot of.

1121
00:56:22,159 --> 00:56:24,199
Guys it was a slow. GAME i don't think that

1122
00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,480
actually really. MATTERS i would say that you have something

1123
00:56:27,679 --> 00:56:27,960
on your.

1124
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:32,639
Speaker 1: Hands, yeah and, Again i'm just kind of LIKE i

1125
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,199
was kind of, shocked being as it's an extra board,

1126
00:56:35,199 --> 00:56:37,800
game it's. EARLY i kind of Expected East TEXAS a

1127
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:40,159
AND m and gets slammed at some, point and and

1128
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:42,599
the fact that it's gone the other way LIKE i

1129
00:56:42,679 --> 00:56:45,079
may have to jump in and add this as a client.

1130
00:56:45,119 --> 00:56:47,679
Play I'LL i don't know If i'll know If i'm

1131
00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:49,679
going to do that prior to this, show but certainly

1132
00:56:50,039 --> 00:56:52,239
if this gets to three and it's like a widely

1133
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:54,840
available three like, that MGM's got three and a half

1134
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:56,480
minus one oh five right. Now if that goes to,

1135
00:56:56,519 --> 00:56:59,840
THREE i might have no. Choice my numbers might force

1136
00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:03,800
me to uh to PLAY a AND m minus the points,

1137
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:05,119
There and that's What i'm gonna for the.

1138
00:57:05,159 --> 00:57:06,119
Speaker 3: Parlay we'll USE.

1139
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,079
Speaker 1: A AND m minus three and a. Half So i'll

1140
00:57:08,079 --> 00:57:10,559
put the spread in uh to juice the odds up

1141
00:57:10,559 --> 00:57:13,159
a little. Bit and that means with three minutes, left

1142
00:57:13,159 --> 00:57:15,679
we got to decide what our what our consensus leg

1143
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:17,760
is you want to Go Saint. John's we kind of

1144
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:22,360
agree on that. One, well what is the what is

1145
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:24,920
our current number for The? JOHNNIES i think it's minus.

1146
00:57:24,920 --> 00:57:27,880
SIX i think it's up to. Six does that change

1147
00:57:27,880 --> 00:57:30,039
Your are you good with? That johnny is minus?

1148
00:57:30,039 --> 00:57:33,360
Speaker 3: Six all? Right so.

1149
00:57:35,679 --> 00:57:38,159
Speaker 1: We've got three minutes, left so one more. Time if

1150
00:57:38,199 --> 00:57:40,599
they missed it at the, top tell the folks where

1151
