1
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:05,679
Speaker 1: All right, don't mind me.

2
00:00:05,719 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 2: I'm just back here trying to convince Rob that Sianna

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,320
Merrist is the feature of the night.

4
00:00:10,359 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 1: But it's Thursday, Rob, you know that.

5
00:00:12,439 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 2: Means all of all of my small conference Northeast, you

6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,160
know based teams get center stage.

7
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 1: It's mid major Thursday. The big boys move out of

8
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:23,960
the way for a minute.

9
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 2: And it's become my favorite day of the week because,

10
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:30,640
you know, they get the the mid majors get a

11
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,600
little bit of a platform. There's they get a couple

12
00:00:32,679 --> 00:00:36,280
of national TV spots, and you know, as a mid

13
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,560
major guy, myself being a Cianna college graduate, I uh,

14
00:00:40,759 --> 00:00:41,960
you know, I always pull.

15
00:00:41,799 --> 00:00:43,759
Speaker 1: For the the the.

16
00:00:43,799 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 2: Small guys getting a chance. So that's what we've got tonight.

17
00:00:47,759 --> 00:00:49,799
I did see the Big ten snuck a snuck a

18
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:51,759
game in out of this onto the slate. But we're

19
00:00:51,759 --> 00:00:54,000
gonna go with what I picked for the feature game,

20
00:00:54,039 --> 00:00:57,560
which is you know the American, Rob. You know, is

21
00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,159
the American a mid major conference?

22
00:00:59,200 --> 00:00:59,439
Speaker 1: Now?

23
00:00:59,799 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 3: In your opinions, yes, yeah, I mean, I mean the

24
00:01:06,879 --> 00:01:09,640
Big East has always not been a mid major, but

25
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,319
this year it has a mid major field.

26
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,239
Speaker 4: But I don't you know, f a U I guess

27
00:01:14,239 --> 00:01:17,719
went to a final four and maybe yeah, elevates it

28
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,159
a little bit. I'm not sure.

29
00:01:19,879 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, do they get two teams

30
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,200
in the tournament this year? Is there two teams in

31
00:01:24,239 --> 00:01:25,799
the NCAA Tournament out of this league?

32
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 4: There could be, right, Fau and Tulsa could go. We

33
00:01:31,879 --> 00:01:34,280
would probably make the case that they should go the

34
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,920
two of them. Yeah, and there's always Memphis, right, You

35
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,760
never know who's gonna win this tournament, which could obviously

36
00:01:42,599 --> 00:01:45,760
give you a league champion, a conference champion, and then

37
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,519
you could get two out of there. But yeah, you know,

38
00:01:49,519 --> 00:01:51,680
I don't, Adam. I guess it's just the year that

39
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:53,680
this is that I'm saying no, But there is years

40
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,120
where the American is a mid major conference and a

41
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,400
very good one. So it will see. Tonight's game is

42
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,159
very interesting thing for sure.

43
00:02:02,319 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Rob the reason I kind of brought that up,

44
00:02:04,879 --> 00:02:07,640
and this is my segue into our feature game. You know,

45
00:02:08,319 --> 00:02:11,280
coming into the season, I thought South Florida would surely

46
00:02:11,319 --> 00:02:14,159
have been an NCAA Tournament team. They were my pick

47
00:02:14,199 --> 00:02:17,000
to win this league. Coming into the season. I felt

48
00:02:17,039 --> 00:02:20,240
like they would probably have a resume that was good

49
00:02:20,319 --> 00:02:24,960
enough to get them in regardless, they haven't quite been that,

50
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,280
but for me, they still have the most upside. I

51
00:02:28,319 --> 00:02:30,719
talked about Tulsa yesterday being a team I really like,

52
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,439
but to me, South Florida has the most upside of

53
00:02:33,479 --> 00:02:36,639
any team in this league. Tonight they hit the road

54
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,520
to play a UAB team that they should have beat

55
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,400
the first time around. That they kind of choked a

56
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,319
game away, which is probably part of the reason that

57
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,000
we're sitting there talking about them as maybe not a

58
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,240
tournament team, because they've had a couple of these where

59
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,719
they've choked leads away, and none more sort of gut

60
00:02:52,759 --> 00:02:55,680
wrenching than that first South Florida UAB game where they

61
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:57,840
I believe were up double digits and then went and

62
00:02:57,879 --> 00:03:01,439
lost in ot So, rob Bino, south Florida a slight

63
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,360
road favorite here. Do you think they bounce back and

64
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,319
get the win tonight?

65
00:03:06,599 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 4: Just looking Ken Palm rates them as a tenth best

66
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,120
conference in the country. Right now, I'm trying to see

67
00:03:14,199 --> 00:03:16,120
I don't know that there's a there's no quad win

68
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,360
victories here, right so you got to win this league.

69
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,120
You gotta win the conference title. Let's get back to

70
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,759
the game at hand. Though at him which, as you said,

71
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,159
we get a repeat performance here, right, So we've got

72
00:03:26,199 --> 00:03:29,360
some recent history to go off of double overtime one

73
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,840
O nine, one O sixty a B. You qualified it

74
00:03:33,879 --> 00:03:36,240
as South Florida choking it away. I would say if

75
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,000
they choked it away, they choked it away at the

76
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:41,000
free throw line in that game twenty three of thirty six.

77
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,719
You just can't miss thirteen free throws in that game.

78
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:49,360
Otherwise they had, you know, pretty solid advantages, advantage on

79
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,919
the boards, advantage in three pointers. I'm just going to

80
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,759
break out something that i've you know, that I use myself,

81
00:03:55,759 --> 00:03:58,120
and I have not broken out here on the show

82
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,560
yet because I play so many totals. I just have it.

83
00:04:02,599 --> 00:04:04,800
You know. I don't want to call it proprietary, because

84
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,240
nothing's proprietary, but a statistic that I use that I

85
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:10,960
kind of came up with that I don't see a

86
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,240
lot of other people using. I just call it potential points.

87
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,879
If every single shot in the particular game went in

88
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,959
the basket, how many points would have been scored. I

89
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,279
understand it was doubled overtime, but in this game, you

90
00:04:22,319 --> 00:04:24,759
would have had four hundred and forty seven points scored

91
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,000
if everything went in the hoop. Take some of that

92
00:04:28,079 --> 00:04:30,759
out for double lot, I get it. But my point

93
00:04:30,759 --> 00:04:33,040
being that for UAB they had a chance for two

94
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,000
hundred and twenty two points. For South Florida had a

95
00:04:35,079 --> 00:04:37,839
chance for two twenty five. That's not going to change.

96
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:39,920
It's just not going to change. It's going to be

97
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,319
up and down. It's how these two play. There are

98
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:48,600
some differences here in this matchup. We know about pace,

99
00:04:48,759 --> 00:04:51,800
but three point shooting. South Florida can do it. You

100
00:04:51,879 --> 00:04:54,879
an you ain' b really doesn't even try. What I

101
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,959
found for UAB was a statistic that is so skewed

102
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,680
after nineteen games, and it's their point distribution. For UAB,

103
00:05:07,639 --> 00:05:11,000
their point distribution where three pointers are concerned, they're three

104
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,759
hundred and sixty first in the nation. Their fifth worst.

105
00:05:14,759 --> 00:05:16,720
It's like they don't depend on the three at all

106
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,480
to score their points. It's all twos, it's all free throws.

107
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:25,439
Their two point distribution is ninth in the country, extremely high,

108
00:05:25,519 --> 00:05:30,079
but that gap between three sixty one and nine is unuge,

109
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:36,000
unusually wide. So for South Florida, shut down the lane.

110
00:05:36,519 --> 00:05:38,439
They're not a good defensive team, but it's what they

111
00:05:38,439 --> 00:05:41,439
do best. They can block some shots, a little rim protection,

112
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,759
and maybe you can get enough done to win this

113
00:05:44,879 --> 00:05:48,160
game on the road. For South Florida, you're often overtime

114
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,240
loss to Wichita State. Excuse me, in overtime win against

115
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,720
Wichita State. A little bit draining there for uab your

116
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,920
home again after the blowout by Tulsa, who put up

117
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,639
ninety nine on them. Instead of trying to pick this

118
00:06:02,759 --> 00:06:05,959
game sidewise, I just I look directly at the total

119
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,360
adam one sixty five and a half, opener up to

120
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,560
one sixty seven, one sixty seven and a half where

121
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,800
the line is concerned. They're asking you to get to

122
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:19,199
eighty five eighty three in order to cash an over ticket.

123
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:19,399
Speaker 1: Here.

124
00:06:19,439 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 4: The first game at the end of regulation was eighty

125
00:06:21,959 --> 00:06:26,120
three eighty three, right on this number. It's the only

126
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:29,720
way I could play it again. When you get the

127
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,319
second time around, I understand totally that you have some

128
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,839
sense of knowledge of what the other team does, and

129
00:06:36,879 --> 00:06:38,800
maybe you can prep to take some of the good

130
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:42,040
stuff that they did against you away. I just don't

131
00:06:42,079 --> 00:06:43,879
know that the way the style of these two teams

132
00:06:43,959 --> 00:06:46,839
play is going to take is going to make any

133
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,519
changes the second time around at all. Fast game up

134
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,120
and down a ton of missed free throws, Adham, if

135
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:54,839
you get some of the free throws that were missed.

136
00:06:54,879 --> 00:06:58,399
I talked about South Florida missing thirteen, but you ab

137
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,240
missed their share as well, so maybe some of those

138
00:07:02,319 --> 00:07:04,959
go in here. I would look over in that game

139
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,319
and I kind of feel like South Florida is gonna

140
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,759
get their revenge here. To tell you the truth, U A.

141
00:07:10,879 --> 00:07:12,399
B is just not very good this year.

142
00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 2: Uh that That's the way I'm looking rob. I kind

143
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,639
of feel like South Florida gets their revenge as well.

144
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,839
You know, you go back to that first meeting some

145
00:07:20,879 --> 00:07:23,920
of the things that you brought up that ultimately caused

146
00:07:23,959 --> 00:07:27,399
South Florida to let allow the game to go into overtime,

147
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,639
right Like, South Florida had to had to allow had

148
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,800
to make mistakes to allow that game to go into OT.

149
00:07:32,959 --> 00:07:35,519
Then it gets into OT and we get that that

150
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,839
big crazy I think like one O nine, one O six,

151
00:07:37,959 --> 00:07:41,720
maybe double overtime, uh final right there. But reality is

152
00:07:42,199 --> 00:07:44,519
South Florida makes a couple of plays they probably put

153
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,399
that game away, and then we're looking back on that

154
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,920
game being like, well, South Florida just kind of was

155
00:07:48,959 --> 00:07:51,879
the better team, and you know dominated that. I don't

156
00:07:51,879 --> 00:07:54,800
know if you say dominated the game, but like you know,

157
00:07:54,839 --> 00:07:56,720
you would have it would have it would have likely

158
00:07:56,759 --> 00:07:58,839
showed that they won the game handily. Instead, they get

159
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,759
get stuck with a law uh South you know, South Florida.

160
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,000
That that is a point that needs to be made

161
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,639
because it's not the first time they've done that this year.

162
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,439
Go back to the weekend they choked that game away

163
00:08:11,439 --> 00:08:12,240
to Wichita State.

164
00:08:12,279 --> 00:08:13,319
Speaker 1: How do they lose that game?

165
00:08:13,399 --> 00:08:17,879
Speaker 2: Rob, I wasn't watching that one intently, but I'm pretty

166
00:08:17,879 --> 00:08:20,079
sure there was a scenario where they were up double

167
00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:23,560
digits in that game and lost in overtime. So going

168
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,800
back to the free throw woes and just some of

169
00:08:25,839 --> 00:08:29,639
the you know not you know, lack of of sort

170
00:08:29,639 --> 00:08:31,600
of playmaking in the clutch, the plays you need to

171
00:08:31,639 --> 00:08:33,840
make to close out a game. Couldn't do that against

172
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,080
Wichita State either. I don't think U A B Is

173
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,080
a great team. That's the problem. That's That's where I

174
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,000
come at for me. I just I just don't think

175
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,159
UAB is very good. I would have loved to see

176
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,840
them get the uh, you know, being as they're at

177
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,159
home here, and sometimes home teams in this league will

178
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,879
will take money and get bet. Where I saw this

179
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:58,200
open USF minus two, I said, okay, that's playable. I

180
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,960
could probably lay the two. Maybe I'll get like a

181
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,279
minus one thirty or minus one thirty five money line.

182
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:06,440
That's something I could stomach. But boy would I love

183
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,200
someone to come in and bet UAB so I can

184
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,759
go go back against it at a more reasonable number,

185
00:09:12,039 --> 00:09:15,120
or like, let's say UAB because again UAB gets There

186
00:09:15,159 --> 00:09:17,480
are another teams, a couple on the board today rob

187
00:09:17,639 --> 00:09:19,279
that get love for the name on the front of

188
00:09:19,279 --> 00:09:19,759
the jersey.

189
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,159
Speaker 1: UAB is always one of them.

190
00:09:21,159 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 2: I feel like they always sort of get love for

191
00:09:25,159 --> 00:09:29,000
the UAB brand carries some weight in this league where

192
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,720
when they're at home, you know you expect them to

193
00:09:31,759 --> 00:09:35,240
be like a one point favorite in this game, regardless

194
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:38,080
when they're at home. So that's kind of what I

195
00:09:38,159 --> 00:09:40,159
was hoping for. I'm not saying it doesn't do that

196
00:09:40,279 --> 00:09:43,240
at some point, but it looks like two and a half.

197
00:09:43,279 --> 00:09:45,639
It's holding pretty strong at two and a half right now.

198
00:09:45,759 --> 00:09:48,240
There are a couple books that are at two. The

199
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,679
only way I could play this game would be South Florida.

200
00:09:50,759 --> 00:09:53,120
I think they are a superior team. I think UAB

201
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,279
is going to play a lot of zone here. I

202
00:09:55,279 --> 00:09:57,279
think it's going to allow South Florida to get their

203
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,639
threes up. We know this is Brian Hodgson. There's quite

204
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,159
a few nay Oakes disciples on the board today, rob

205
00:10:03,919 --> 00:10:06,799
Hodgson being one of them. This is actually probably a

206
00:10:06,799 --> 00:10:11,559
good matchup for how USF wants to play. So yeah,

207
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,879
I kind of like there's two bounce back angles in

208
00:10:13,919 --> 00:10:16,639
play here. One choking the game to Wichita State over

209
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,559
the weekend, two choking the game to UAB the first

210
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,919
time around. I could only play South Florida here. I

211
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,600
just think they're a better team.

212
00:10:24,519 --> 00:10:26,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, a couple of things just to close it up.

213
00:10:28,759 --> 00:10:31,240
I feel like Adam, at this time of year, you

214
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,120
have teams that still haven't reached their ceiling and other

215
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,879
teams that may be plateaued or already hit their ceiling.

216
00:10:37,159 --> 00:10:39,240
I don't know that Andy Kennedy can take his team

217
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,200
any higher than what they are right now. I just

218
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:45,200
don't know that there's a ceiling left for UAB. That said,

219
00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,919
I think South Florida still can. I mean they could

220
00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,799
rattle off a six or seven game win streak. Still,

221
00:10:51,879 --> 00:10:54,080
they're good enough to be better than what they've put

222
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,799
on the board already. I think that could happen. And

223
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,679
in that Wichita State game, they got crushed on the boards,

224
00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,000
which to state, which is rare.

225
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 2: Right, South South Florida rebounds the ball pretty well for

226
00:11:06,879 --> 00:11:07,440
the most.

227
00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 4: Part, and it shows you how good Wichita State is,

228
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:14,120
right forty offensive rebounding percentage in that game. That's not

229
00:11:14,159 --> 00:11:16,480
going to happen against UAB. That UAB is not going

230
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,120
to do that to them. And UAB just doesn't defend threes.

231
00:11:20,159 --> 00:11:25,639
If these threes go tonight on the road, UAB probably

232
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,399
gets beat. I don't know, I could, I could see

233
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,480
it from South Florida's perspective. UAB is off a twenty

234
00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:34,000
two point home loss. Again, I would I would sometimes

235
00:11:34,039 --> 00:11:36,320
call for a bounce back because it's back to back

236
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,919
home games inside the conference. But UAB hasn't shown to

237
00:11:39,919 --> 00:11:43,480
be good enough to get that type of you know, handicap.

238
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,919
Probably South Florida. I do think it's going to be

239
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,279
high scoring again, though neither team plays a lot of

240
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:50,000
defense here.

241
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna be a good one to watch ESPN

242
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,960
to two tonight seven pm. It's one of the the

243
00:11:56,399 --> 00:12:00,720
couple of national TV games tonight, So definitely one to

244
00:12:00,759 --> 00:12:03,159
watch and we'll see how this. We gotta we gotta

245
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:05,600
find a parlay winner in here somewhere. I don't know

246
00:12:05,639 --> 00:12:07,120
if we're going two team or I don't know if

247
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,799
we're going three teamer, but South Florida Moneyline is certainly

248
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,840
a candidate for the parlay for me because I really

249
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:17,720
think they win that game. Garth is in the in

250
00:12:17,799 --> 00:12:20,960
the chat, thank you for the donation. Garth much appreciated.

251
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,279
He wants to talk Elon and Towson. He says he

252
00:12:24,399 --> 00:12:26,120
likes Elon at home to get their team total of

253
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,000
seventy four and a half. No, Rob, you know, I

254
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,600
like the way Tausan defense. I like the way they rebound,

255
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:36,480
but Elon has had success against them offensively the last

256
00:12:36,519 --> 00:12:40,679
couple of years, and Elon is very efficient offensively this year.

257
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,840
You made this point about a week ago last time

258
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,840
Elon played. The last two times Elon played, they've come

259
00:12:46,919 --> 00:12:49,279
up on the show, and I believe you know, you

260
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,840
kind of pointed out Billy Taylor. Totally different team this year.

261
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,240
Last year you had Matthew Van Coleman down there. It was, Hey,

262
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,120
let's really like dig in on the defensive end. Play

263
00:12:59,159 --> 00:13:02,080
this extended and we are going to be a defensive

264
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:06,519
oriented team with the Simpons brothers there at the guard,

265
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:10,279
both being pretty good defenders. Completely different team, and credit

266
00:13:10,279 --> 00:13:12,639
to Billy Taylor for being able to play to his

267
00:13:12,799 --> 00:13:15,759
roster streints. Right, this is not an Elon's not a

268
00:13:15,799 --> 00:13:17,960
defensive team anymore. They're a team that needs to go

269
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,320
out and score points to win. Garth's question, do they

270
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,279
score enough to get over that team total?

271
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 1: What do you think?

272
00:13:24,919 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 4: Well, they're showing that they have the capability.

273
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: Right.

274
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 4: The first thing you take into account, and I'm sure

275
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:35,120
Garth has is you know, a thousand tempo, slow, slow pace, right,

276
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,879
So you look, as I always do for comp games,

277
00:13:38,759 --> 00:13:42,519
Hofstra is as slow as it gets, and Elon got

278
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,000
them into an eighty nine to eighty five game on

279
00:13:45,039 --> 00:13:48,240
the road on Hofstra's home floor. They got him into

280
00:13:48,279 --> 00:13:51,440
that type of game. So there's no reason to think

281
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,879
that at home they can't get that style of game

282
00:13:54,919 --> 00:14:00,720
against thousand tonight. Very few teams do get over seventy

283
00:14:00,759 --> 00:14:02,960
four and a half against thousand, that's for sure, because

284
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:05,240
of the way they play. But this is one that

285
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,840
may be able to We talked about them. I think

286
00:14:07,919 --> 00:14:10,440
it was the Northeastern game last week, Adam, where we

287
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,639
were talking about the arena only holding eight hundred and

288
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:15,519
twelve people, and we might have even had Elon into

289
00:14:15,519 --> 00:14:18,200
parlay that day and Northeastern came out and won that game.

290
00:14:18,759 --> 00:14:21,480
They gave up eighty five points to Northeastern, which is

291
00:14:22,279 --> 00:14:25,799
not a great statement for their defense. That being said,

292
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,360
thousand might be able to get some points, and I

293
00:14:29,399 --> 00:14:31,799
always like to say that, you know, if a slow

294
00:14:31,879 --> 00:14:36,679
team feels like they can score against a bad defense

295
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,080
in an uptempo game, they may get caught up in it.

296
00:14:39,159 --> 00:14:42,399
So for me, it's a tricky number. I'll say that much.

297
00:14:42,399 --> 00:14:46,039
We're not betting all of the analysis that we give.

298
00:14:46,039 --> 00:14:48,399
We're betting against the number, and the analysis has to

299
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,240
lead to a conclusion against this particular number. I'd be

300
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,120
a little bit leery, but I wouldn't be totally afraid

301
00:14:55,799 --> 00:14:59,159
to bet Elon up and over their team totally at

302
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,399
seventy four and a half, just because they've proven result

303
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,399
wise that they could do it against slow paced teams

304
00:15:03,679 --> 00:15:08,120
and they're at home here. Thousands a scarier type of

305
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,240
slow though than Hofster is at him. I don't know,

306
00:15:11,559 --> 00:15:16,360
it's hard to describe it. But to me, the Hobster

307
00:15:16,519 --> 00:15:21,320
team is more willing to go than thousands, Like thousand

308
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,519
just wants to be stuck in the mud all the time.

309
00:15:24,039 --> 00:15:27,039
We're Hallster not so much, and especially on Hoster's home floor.

310
00:15:27,159 --> 00:15:29,759
So it's a tricky number guard. I'm not gonna call

311
00:15:29,879 --> 00:15:32,919
at tell you not to play that game or talk

312
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,399
you off of it, because it certainly can get there.

313
00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,799
Thousands just a tricky team to ask somebody to get

314
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:40,879
seventy five against.

315
00:15:42,759 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I will say though, if there was a team

316
00:15:45,879 --> 00:15:48,080
that is set up to do it, it's probably Elon

317
00:15:48,159 --> 00:15:51,200
because their half court offense and they're just their offense

318
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,879
in general is as efficient as any team has been

319
00:15:53,919 --> 00:15:56,279
in this league this year, I will say so.

320
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: I was at the Towsing game.

321
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,200
Speaker 2: A week ago today against Charleston where they kind kind

322
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,240
of grind it out a win. But even in that game,

323
00:16:02,639 --> 00:16:04,919
even in that game they had they had it, they

324
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,840
were in complete control, and still had their like six

325
00:16:08,919 --> 00:16:12,440
minute offensive drought where they went from being in complete

326
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:16,240
control to Charleston cutting it to like two or three

327
00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:18,320
or four, I forget what they cut it too exactly.

328
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:24,000
And then of course on Monday they were that drought

329
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,399
was most of the first part of the game. I mean,

330
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,279
they were totally I think Drexel scored fifteen straight points

331
00:16:30,279 --> 00:16:31,440
at one point, maybe more.

332
00:16:32,159 --> 00:16:33,840
Speaker 1: It was like thirteen thirteen.

333
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 2: I go downstairs to eat a sandwich quick route because

334
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,639
I hadn't eaten all day. It was a one pm game.

335
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,080
We were doing this show, and there's a million day games.

336
00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,919
I come back, it's like twenty seven to thirteen. I

337
00:16:45,919 --> 00:16:48,879
didn't think Drexel could possibly score fourteen points in the

338
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,480
row on anyone. So that's that's an issue for Towson.

339
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:57,399
They It's almost unavoidable the way that they I guess

340
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,639
their lack of offense, that is probably going to happen

341
00:17:00,759 --> 00:17:04,119
against to them at some point in time, against just

342
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:08,680
about anyone they play. It's puzzling to me because I

343
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,559
think when you've got Williamson and you've got Tyler Tahaa,

344
00:17:12,599 --> 00:17:15,039
it's almost like they should be able to like will

345
00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:18,599
their way to the basket or making a tough shot,

346
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,519
to be able to just like break up a drought

347
00:17:20,559 --> 00:17:20,880
like that.

348
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: But those two have played all season.

349
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 2: They haven't been able to avoid it all season, so

350
00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:28,440
why would they be able to start avoiding it?

351
00:17:28,519 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 1: Now.

352
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:31,759
Speaker 2: Now again, I'll note that Elon not as good defensively

353
00:17:31,799 --> 00:17:34,079
as they were last year, but they more the makeup

354
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:37,400
for it with how efficient their offense has been, so

355
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:41,839
the number is probably good. I see conflicting things here

356
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,680
for me, because one, I think it's a pretty good

357
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,000
matchup for Elon. Two, I don't really want to go

358
00:17:46,039 --> 00:17:48,200
against Towson right now because they had that zero to

359
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,799
four start in the league where I almost think they're

360
00:17:50,839 --> 00:17:53,440
like they're in like make up for lost time mode

361
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,200
right now, rob where they get that great comeback. So

362
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:59,200
they beat Charleston, probably the win of the season for them,

363
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,680
a great come back to steal a game. They really

364
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,920
did steal that game from Drexel on Monday. They trailed

365
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:09,480
almost the entire game and then win getting fouled, Like

366
00:18:09,559 --> 00:18:12,119
I think there was like a two seconds left where

367
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,480
they get fouled and have to go make both file

368
00:18:14,519 --> 00:18:18,599
shots to win, and they do, so it feels like

369
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,519
they're just kind of really, you know, they're getting some

370
00:18:20,559 --> 00:18:23,559
of this momentum that they lacked early in conference play.

371
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,400
So that makes me think maybe Towson's got another win

372
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,119
in them. But they go on the road here and

373
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,279
Elon's been much better than I anticipated, so it's a

374
00:18:33,319 --> 00:18:35,279
toss up for me. I doubt I'll get involved in

375
00:18:35,319 --> 00:18:38,839
the side, but I actually don't. I don't disagree with

376
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,240
Garth thinking that this could be the game where Twson

377
00:18:42,279 --> 00:18:44,000
gives up a few points because I just think they're

378
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,359
a much tougher matchup for Towson than Drexel or Charleston.

379
00:18:48,799 --> 00:18:51,680
I mean, listen, Northeastern put up seventy eight on Towson

380
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,200
the other day. If Northeastern can put up seventy eight,

381
00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,400
Elons certainly can put up seventy five.

382
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 1: That's kind of the way I look at that there.

383
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 2: It's it's not the worst time to take a shot

384
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,759
with Towson giving up some points.

385
00:19:04,519 --> 00:19:07,480
Speaker 4: Okay, and I probably shouldn't have overlooked this Garth, But

386
00:19:08,319 --> 00:19:11,279
Adam just mentioned one of the road games against an

387
00:19:11,319 --> 00:19:14,559
up tempo team. Northeastern happens to be the second quickest

388
00:19:14,599 --> 00:19:17,680
team in league play as far as Temple was concerned,

389
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,640
but they also went to William and Mary and gave

390
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:24,160
up eighty four. So the two teams that play faster

391
00:19:24,279 --> 00:19:27,240
tempo than Elon. Because Elon ranks three, William and Mary one,

392
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:29,759
Northeastern two. They played the one and two on the road,

393
00:19:30,319 --> 00:19:33,240
gave up seventy eight and eighty four. Now they're going

394
00:19:33,279 --> 00:19:35,559
to play the third fastest tempo and the best shooting

395
00:19:35,599 --> 00:19:40,160
team of the three in their building. So again I'm trying.

396
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,400
I'm building a case for what you have there on

397
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:46,599
the screen. Elon team total over hard to disagree with it.

398
00:19:47,599 --> 00:19:49,319
The more I talk through it, the more I'm coming

399
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,160
around to your side here, Garth.

400
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 2: Well, and I'll go. I'll just answer Noa's question real quick.

401
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,559
What about taking Towson under thirty three or three and

402
00:19:56,599 --> 00:19:57,559
a half first half?

403
00:19:59,119 --> 00:19:59,599
Speaker 1: Here's the thing.

404
00:19:59,599 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 2: I don't think Elon's as good defensively as they were

405
00:20:01,759 --> 00:20:02,240
last year.

406
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 1: So I don't.

407
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 2: I don't really, And you still can't tell me that

408
00:20:06,039 --> 00:20:09,279
there's not potential on this this Towsond offense. You have

409
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,200
two of the better players in the conference on this team,

410
00:20:12,839 --> 00:20:14,039
like they should score more.

411
00:20:14,079 --> 00:20:14,880
Speaker 1: I I don't like.

412
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,519
Speaker 2: You gotta find a way to score more. If you're Towson.

413
00:20:17,599 --> 00:20:20,039
You have two guys that can can that are that

414
00:20:20,079 --> 00:20:22,759
are two of the better players in the conference. Why

415
00:20:22,759 --> 00:20:25,079
can this team not run better offense? Rob That's that's

416
00:20:25,079 --> 00:20:27,960
what I want to know. But that's I guess it's

417
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:33,000
a whole nother discussion there, Rob. I'm gonna let Gary

418
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,079
yes for Pat Scary to figure out. Well, now that

419
00:20:35,079 --> 00:20:39,240
we brought Pat Scary up, we'll just segue right into

420
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:41,039
it because this is the other game that the people

421
00:20:41,079 --> 00:20:43,759
want to talk about, and that is Pat Scary's old

422
00:20:43,799 --> 00:20:48,039
I believe his old team, which was William and Mary.

423
00:20:48,039 --> 00:20:50,160
Speaker 1: I think that's where Pat Scary came from.

424
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:55,039
Speaker 2: Right another in conference this league, Rob, this league loves

425
00:20:55,079 --> 00:20:59,839
to just recycle they Do you ever notice that will

426
00:21:00,519 --> 00:21:03,559
is an all star team of CIA guys from last year.

427
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,160
If you look at Wilmington's roster, it's like Madison Durr

428
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:12,279
comes from Monmouth, le Month came from NCAA, and t.

429
00:21:12,759 --> 00:21:13,079
Speaker 1: Cj.

430
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,279
Speaker 2: Luster, who looks like he won't step foot on the

431
00:21:15,319 --> 00:21:18,160
court this year for Wilmington, which is unfortunate because he

432
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,240
would have been their best player came from Stony Brook.

433
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,960
So Wilmington went the route of, Hey, we're the brand

434
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,319
in this league. We're just going to take all the

435
00:21:25,319 --> 00:21:27,559
good players from all the other teams and put them

436
00:21:27,599 --> 00:21:30,079
on our team. And it's worked to this point, Rob,

437
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:33,319
because Wilmington is seventeen and two. I think many would

438
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,759
say they're the team to beat. And I wonder if

439
00:21:35,799 --> 00:21:38,119
our guy Steve Merrill will be at this game. I'd

440
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,640
almost bet my life that he will be because this

441
00:21:40,759 --> 00:21:43,279
is the bit probably the biggest home game of the year,

442
00:21:43,839 --> 00:21:46,279
at least to date for the William and Mary tribe,

443
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,759
who've been very good and I feel like you've kind

444
00:21:48,799 --> 00:21:51,440
of had a good beat on this year, you know,

445
00:21:51,519 --> 00:21:54,000
in terms of the way they play and maybe you

446
00:21:54,039 --> 00:21:56,359
know what will happen in their games. They seem to

447
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,279
come up a lot on the show. So let's go there, Robino,

448
00:21:59,519 --> 00:22:04,680
we got Wilmington, William and Mary. This one is that

449
00:22:05,319 --> 00:22:06,880
Steve is going to be upset if I can't remember

450
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,000
the name of this building. Is it Caplin Arena? I

451
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:19,079
think it's Kaplan Arena. The it is Capitlin Arena, Williamsburg, Virginia.

452
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:19,920
Speaker 1: Sorry about that.

453
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,799
Speaker 2: That's William and Mary home game they host Wilmington tonight.

454
00:22:22,799 --> 00:22:23,480
Speaker 1: What do you think.

455
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,799
Speaker 4: I think Wilmington's You know, William and Mary is going

456
00:22:27,839 --> 00:22:30,319
to play one way, one way only, Right, we've talked

457
00:22:30,319 --> 00:22:34,640
about it at nauseum. You've talked about Brian Earle. Maybe

458
00:22:35,519 --> 00:22:39,599
towards the second half of the season, maybe grinding his

459
00:22:39,759 --> 00:22:43,160
team down so much with pace. This isn't quite the

460
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,880
second half yet, it's the first meeting between the two.

461
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,160
It's an important meeting for William and Mary on their

462
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,799
home floor to get this win. Right now, Wilmington is

463
00:22:52,839 --> 00:22:55,599
head and shoulders above the rest of this league. I

464
00:22:55,759 --> 00:22:58,839
just in my opinion here, Adam, they play too good

465
00:22:58,839 --> 00:23:02,720
a deepfense to let this one get away at William

466
00:23:02,759 --> 00:23:04,720
and Mary. For what it's worth, they get a lot

467
00:23:04,759 --> 00:23:08,079
of shots up. But I've been on them. We've talked

468
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,519
about this too. I was on him a couple of

469
00:23:09,519 --> 00:23:11,400
times where they just couldn't make the shots. When they

470
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:15,240
make the shots, it's wonderful. When they don't make the shots,

471
00:23:15,319 --> 00:23:17,920
it's not as wonderful. And I'm not sure they can

472
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:23,039
make enough shots here against Wilmington. Wilmington's played not the

473
00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:24,960
quickest teams. I mean, they've played a lot of slow

474
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,839
teams in this league. You go through their game logs.

475
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:31,799
Northeastern a fast paced team, but other than that, like

476
00:23:31,839 --> 00:23:35,000
they haven't played Elon yet, so they haven't really been

477
00:23:35,039 --> 00:23:39,359
faced with the few tempo teams in this league. So

478
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:40,880
it could be a little bit of an issue here.

479
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,480
I mean Northeastern did get to seventy eight against UNC Wilmington,

480
00:23:45,519 --> 00:23:50,480
but UNC Wilmington simply outscored them. It's I think that

481
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,920
William and Mary, probably at home, gets to dictate how

482
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,440
this game is played. However, the total move at him

483
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:03,440
from one fifty to one fifty is outrageous. To bet

484
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,519
it at this point I should clarify that to bet

485
00:24:05,519 --> 00:24:08,000
it now at one fifty seven, he just can't do it.

486
00:24:08,279 --> 00:24:11,200
Often refer to this as getting the ass end of

487
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:15,160
the line. Nobody wants. That is a seven point gap

488
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,279
here those who got their early congratulations. So I can't

489
00:24:18,279 --> 00:24:20,279
even really look at total. What I could do is

490
00:24:20,319 --> 00:24:23,000
I could look at team total and in the case

491
00:24:23,039 --> 00:24:26,559
of each side here you got and see Wilmington seventy

492
00:24:26,559 --> 00:24:28,759
eight and a half William and Mary seventy seven and

493
00:24:28,799 --> 00:24:33,039
a half. That's probably a close call to This number

494
00:24:34,319 --> 00:24:37,480
is asking you to pick the winner, basically, and if

495
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,079
you ask me who the winner in the end is

496
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:43,359
going to be. UNC Wilmington just doesn't have flaws. The

497
00:24:43,519 --> 00:24:46,680
only reservation, and I'll say it again, is that they

498
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:51,359
haven't played tempo teams yet. There's very few in the CIA.

499
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,000
You don't get a chance to play a lot of

500
00:24:53,039 --> 00:24:55,160
these teams that just want to get up and down

501
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,119
the floor. Most of them are slow pace. But it

502
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,599
gets Northeastern. If you give up seventy eight, that would

503
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,640
concerns me a little bit. But I don't think enough

504
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,720
to get back off of Wilmington. I just think they're

505
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:08,519
the best team in the league right now all facets.

506
00:25:10,079 --> 00:25:11,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, imagine CJ.

507
00:25:11,519 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 2: Luster didn't get hurt in the preseason, what will we

508
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,119
be talking about right now because that he would be

509
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,559
I mean, I strongly believe he would have been their

510
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,920
best player. He was the best scorer, one of the

511
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,880
best scorers in the league last year for stony Brook.

512
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:25,920
He would have actually had a team around him this year,

513
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:29,160
and so very very disappointing that we won't see him.

514
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,519
But you know, Wilmington six to zero in the league

515
00:25:31,599 --> 00:25:34,480
so far, seventeen and two overall.

516
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 1: So a couple things.

517
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,039
Speaker 2: Here for me, rob that I guess sort of have

518
00:25:39,279 --> 00:25:42,720
me being a believer in both sides, like that both

519
00:25:42,759 --> 00:25:45,359
sides have a path here. The first thing is like

520
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:51,240
without a doubt. And I talked to someone, I was

521
00:25:51,279 --> 00:25:55,359
talking to someone from Towson that's tuned into there, that

522
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,519
said that that game is almost sold out on the

523
00:25:57,519 --> 00:26:01,640
twenty ninth, So like the rest of the league views

524
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,279
Wilmington as the team to beat, which hasn't always been

525
00:26:04,279 --> 00:26:06,440
the case in this league. For years, it was Charleston

526
00:26:06,519 --> 00:26:10,640
right for years with Pat Kelcey at Charleston this league,

527
00:26:10,759 --> 00:26:14,279
it was like the target was on Charleston's back. Without

528
00:26:14,279 --> 00:26:17,359
a doubt, this league, they look at Wilmington as like

529
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,759
their biggest game of the year. That's how it is

530
00:26:19,839 --> 00:26:22,920
right now. They went to the NCAA Tournament last year.

531
00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,759
Believe they took Texas Tech to the wire a most

532
00:26:26,799 --> 00:26:28,960
played him very, very tough in the NCAA Tournament.

533
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: Last year. They're seventeen and two.

534
00:26:30,839 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 2: They're six to zero league plays, so this is pretty

535
00:26:33,759 --> 00:26:35,200
much everyone's biggest game.

536
00:26:36,039 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 1: And the reason I bring.

537
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:42,839
Speaker 2: That up Rob It's almost like it's like there's foreshadowing

538
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,559
that they might have a road loss coming at some point,

539
00:26:46,039 --> 00:26:49,279
because the last few road games have all like they

540
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:50,559
barely beat stony Brook.

541
00:26:50,599 --> 00:26:52,400
Speaker 1: They needed to come back to win that game.

542
00:26:52,799 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 2: Stonybrook was up forty three to twenty one at halftime,

543
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,720
and that's not a good Stonybrook team. Stonybrook's bad this year. Remember,

544
00:26:59,759 --> 00:27:01,759
I just talked about c J. Luster. They are best

545
00:27:01,759 --> 00:27:04,200
players now on Wilmington, even though he's out for the year,

546
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,079
their best player from last year. So it took a

547
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,960
crazy comeback to win on the road at Stony Brook.

548
00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,640
The game before that Northeastern, which we know is sort

549
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:16,480
of a dumpster fire right now with the fact that

550
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:19,279
they're playing seven or eight guys and they've had most

551
00:27:19,279 --> 00:27:22,200
of their best guys hurt. Even that game went down

552
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,200
to like the final couple minutes until Wilmington was able

553
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,839
to like pull it out right like it was a

554
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:29,640
very close game. I think they pulled it out in

555
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,720
the final few minutes. The road game before that was

556
00:27:32,839 --> 00:27:36,200
NCA and T who I believe is probably the least

557
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,799
talented team in this league, one of them, and that

558
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,680
was another one where Wilmington trailed that halftime and they

559
00:27:42,759 --> 00:27:44,799
got it done, won by nine in the end, but

560
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,960
certainly not convincing by any means. So that's my concern.

561
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,160
William and Mary's a lot better than those three teams.

562
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,880
You can't go down twenty to William and Mary on

563
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,240
the road and expect to come back like That's that

564
00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,000
would be my concern for Wilmington is that They've done

565
00:28:00,039 --> 00:28:02,119
ugged themselves a hole on the road a couple times,

566
00:28:02,599 --> 00:28:05,079
and this is just not the team to go down

567
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,720
fifteen or twenty hype home atmosphere. The way they play,

568
00:28:08,799 --> 00:28:13,119
you're you're probably not getting back in that game. Wilmington, however,

569
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:17,720
is very physical team. They're definitely the most skilled team

570
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,640
in this league. In my opinion, They're going to be

571
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,880
able to like I think they're probably the best candidate

572
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,440
to candidate to run their offense and not be so

573
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,119
concerned or worried about William and Mary. The way they play,

574
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:33,119
the Brian Earle press all just the chaos that he creates,

575
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,440
I think Wilmington's probably just like, all right, yeah, we

576
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:37,319
can break a press.

577
00:28:37,599 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: We've got bigs.

578
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,359
Speaker 2: We're going to be more physical than you, and we

579
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,119
can beat you that way. So it'll be a very

580
00:28:43,119 --> 00:28:45,960
interesting game. I think if you forced me to pick

581
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,279
a side here, Rob, I'm picking Wilmington. But man, I

582
00:28:49,319 --> 00:28:51,519
have concerns with some of the holes they've dug themselves

583
00:28:51,559 --> 00:28:52,400
on the road recently.

584
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, and at home. I mean they're down nine with

585
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,400
ten minutes left in their last game against Campbell, so

586
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,880
we can add that and they scramble to get past

587
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,759
Campbell in that one. Just to the factors that you

588
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,880
pointed out just now, Wilmington they just don't turn it over.

589
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:14,720
William and Mary needs turnovers to get to where they

590
00:29:14,759 --> 00:29:18,720
want to go completely. They're number one in free throw

591
00:29:18,839 --> 00:29:22,960
rate in this league. Wilmington, William and Mary can get

592
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,799
a little bit handsy with the way that they try

593
00:29:25,799 --> 00:29:28,720
to play defense, which isn't really defense. It's kind of

594
00:29:28,799 --> 00:29:32,119
like slap it balls, try and get steals, et cetera,

595
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,160
et cetera. And they defensive rebound better than anybody in

596
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:40,519
this league. So three things fundamentally speaking here, not turning

597
00:29:40,559 --> 00:29:45,119
it over, defensive rebounding, et cetera, et cetera, probably allows them.

598
00:29:45,279 --> 00:29:48,799
I wonder, Adam, and we don't know the answer to this,

599
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,039
but I wonder how much of NC Wilmington's last three

600
00:29:52,119 --> 00:29:54,480
games entering at fourteen and two, well, let's go back

601
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,400
to Hampton. That's four games. How much of that at

602
00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,000
thirteen and two is just disinterest in being a big

603
00:30:00,039 --> 00:30:02,119
favored against these teams? And how much of it is

604
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,920
they're not that much? You know, six and zero indicates

605
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:10,720
they're clearly better, but are they that significantly better than

606
00:30:10,759 --> 00:30:12,880
the rest of these teams, three close calls in a

607
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,799
row becomes an issue after a while. You got to

608
00:30:15,799 --> 00:30:18,319
go on the road here and beat a really good team.

609
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,720
So good game. Tough one to bet, I'll say that

610
00:30:21,799 --> 00:30:23,640
much tough tough one to bet. There's better things to

611
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:24,519
bet on the board than this.

612
00:30:26,279 --> 00:30:28,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you made a good point about turnovers, Robake.

613
00:30:28,759 --> 00:30:32,160
If if Bryan Earl's teams can't turn you over and

614
00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,839
Wilmington only turns the ball over nine point four times

615
00:30:34,839 --> 00:30:37,799
per game, it's a it's a top twenty five mark nationally.

616
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,559
If they can't turn you over. There is so many

617
00:30:41,599 --> 00:30:45,079
easy buckets on the back end of that scramble press

618
00:30:45,759 --> 00:30:48,000
that maybe one fifty six and a half isn't enough.

619
00:30:48,119 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe this.

620
00:30:48,839 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 2: One goes over because there's just easy But if you're

621
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,599
gonna give Wilmington easy buckets and you're and you're William

622
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,799
and Mary, you better be scoring like you better have

623
00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,799
one of your better offensive days or you're not gonna

624
00:30:59,799 --> 00:31:00,440
win game.

625
00:31:00,559 --> 00:31:02,519
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's a good discussion. I agree with you.

626
00:31:02,559 --> 00:31:03,839
There's better stuff out there to bet.

627
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,039
Speaker 2: But I know it's a one of the bigger games,

628
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,079
and it's one that you know I wanted to cover

629
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,880
on the show. So we're gonna get into other games.

630
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,559
We still got thirty minutes to go. We'll find some

631
00:31:12,599 --> 00:31:17,000
winners here. All the winners that we've got you can

632
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:20,119
find on our double the Fireback Power CVV package. Robino,

633
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,400
I went two and two yesterday, No big deal. Pretty

634
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,480
much split my four percenters, split my three percenters. As

635
00:31:25,519 --> 00:31:28,680
I said yesterday, I will be firing the five percenters

636
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:29,839
like impossibly.

637
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 1: Today.

638
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 2: There's a I've already locked one play in. There's like

639
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,039
three or four on my radar. I'm kind of waiting

640
00:31:35,039 --> 00:31:37,119
to see. You know what the number does if they

641
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:39,640
come into range. It's it's It's one of those days

642
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,640
when you're dealing with all the mid majors. There can

643
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,720
be such crazy like manipulation of the market and line

644
00:31:45,759 --> 00:31:48,480
moves that that sometimes I just kind of sit on

645
00:31:48,519 --> 00:31:50,559
my hands in the early part of the day and

646
00:31:50,599 --> 00:31:54,240
then start to add. So so, yeah, I may have

647
00:31:54,319 --> 00:31:56,240
the first five, I may have the five percenter today.

648
00:31:56,279 --> 00:31:58,400
But the point is, if you do the package, you

649
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:01,880
get everything that rob Or I that in college basketball

650
00:32:02,039 --> 00:32:03,240
for three days.

651
00:32:03,559 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: So I'm telling you they're coming.

652
00:32:04,759 --> 00:32:07,599
Speaker 2: I'm literally I'm saying, like the five percenters are coming

653
00:32:07,839 --> 00:32:09,559
this week, like at some point in the next couple

654
00:32:09,559 --> 00:32:11,359
of days, I'll probably have a couple of them, so

655
00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,880
it's it's probably a good time to jump in, Rob.

656
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,799
You know anything else for you to promo before we

657
00:32:15,839 --> 00:32:16,400
continue on.

658
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 4: I will say real quick, Adam, and I'm gonna reiterate

659
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,680
what you just said, because I do the same thing.

660
00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:26,039
I tacked on plays during the day, tacked on a

661
00:32:26,039 --> 00:32:29,480
couple last night. One I got lucky with Boston you

662
00:32:29,799 --> 00:32:31,200
on the extra board Team Tours.

663
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 1: It was a great a one a half.

664
00:32:32,599 --> 00:32:36,319
Speaker 4: It's a great and they got overtime and got it done.

665
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:41,279
And also New Mexico team total over and that game

666
00:32:41,359 --> 00:32:45,039
got severe extension at the end where New Mexico, which

667
00:32:45,319 --> 00:32:48,240
couldn't get to the team total on their own because

668
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,119
they kept missing shots in the half court last four minutes,

669
00:32:51,359 --> 00:32:54,079
but they did get there on the free throw line

670
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,240
as Fresno caught up and just foul foul, foul, foul, foul.

671
00:32:57,319 --> 00:32:59,119
So we went four and two. Again. That's eight and

672
00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,160
four of the last two days in college hoop guys.

673
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:06,839
I'll say one more time, I have not fired. If

674
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,519
I think I've probably had a less than a handful

675
00:33:09,559 --> 00:33:13,119
of three percent plays this year all two's one and

676
00:33:13,119 --> 00:33:15,640
a half. Cot said, a lot of volume, but not

677
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,960
a lot of strength behind them so far. But since

678
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,559
December one, this is a seven week span now, guys

679
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:26,880
up thirty eight point three units, a sixty percent win

680
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,680
percentage for seven weeks now. So it's been really really

681
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,160
good in college hoop, doing the right thing here. So

682
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,599
maybe it's time to press the gas pedal a little

683
00:33:34,599 --> 00:33:36,359
bit here too, Adam. But I like to stick with

684
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,559
what works. No, if it ain't fixed, don't broke it.

685
00:33:39,039 --> 00:33:42,200
Play your game. See what you see. It's just another

686
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,039
way to say, pick up the full court press package.

687
00:33:46,119 --> 00:33:49,279
If you do it today, you get tonight, you get

688
00:33:49,319 --> 00:33:52,000
tomorrow night, and you get the big Saturday card to

689
00:33:52,079 --> 00:33:54,240
cap it off. So probably as good a time as

690
00:33:54,279 --> 00:33:55,000
any to hop in.

691
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 2: By, you know, is the deal. That's a you know,

692
00:34:00,839 --> 00:34:03,759
Rob's the discipline one here. He knows I'm over here.

693
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:07,279
I already killed this today. Yeah, we did go rain today.

694
00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:08,599
That's what we went with today.

695
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:09,320
Speaker 1: I had.

696
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,119
Speaker 2: I had a two and two day where I lost

697
00:34:11,199 --> 00:34:13,400
juice yesterday drinking a peach mango bang.

698
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:14,320
Speaker 1: So you had to switch it up.

699
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 2: Can't can't go back to you know, losing drink white

700
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:20,039
gummy Bear is a hell of a flavor, though, let

701
00:34:20,039 --> 00:34:22,039
me tell you that's a that's a good one.

702
00:34:22,159 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 1: And we've that's empty. We've moved on to a diet coke.

703
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,320
Speaker 2: So you you don't think I'm ready for day basketball, Rob,

704
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,559
you know, you know what, because there's day games. Because yeah,

705
00:34:30,559 --> 00:34:33,920
because thankfully I moved some stuff around, because there was

706
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,000
a there was a time where I was potentially in

707
00:34:37,039 --> 00:34:39,639
the Midwest this week, and I'm very, very glad I'm

708
00:34:39,639 --> 00:34:42,880
not there right now because we have I guess they're

709
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,760
getting like the storm of the century. Now that's just

710
00:34:46,079 --> 00:34:48,639
Tuesday up here in Central New York. We get that

711
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,840
on a regular basis. But like you know, I'm glad

712
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:56,000
I'm not trying to try trying to whip the Jetta

713
00:34:56,199 --> 00:34:59,679
around in like Oklahoma when they're getting like a huge

714
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,760
nose or not driving the other cards bad on gas,

715
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:05,840
So I can't. You know, you gotta you gotta keep it,

716
00:35:06,119 --> 00:35:08,800
keep it in line. But we've got day basketball, Rob,

717
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,039
because all these teams are trying to avoid the snow,

718
00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:14,360
and I'm gonna help go ahead and give one out.

719
00:35:14,559 --> 00:35:15,599
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give one out.

720
00:35:15,639 --> 00:35:17,559
Speaker 2: But like I'm gonna let you guys decide what to

721
00:35:17,599 --> 00:35:20,800
do with it, because I do have a very nice

722
00:35:21,639 --> 00:35:25,039
CLV trophy in the pocket to start the day. So

723
00:35:25,159 --> 00:35:28,079
I played Austin P minus three and.

724
00:35:28,079 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 1: A half earlier. It is now up to six and

725
00:35:30,519 --> 00:35:30,960
a half.

726
00:35:31,679 --> 00:35:34,280
Speaker 2: So, because you guys want to talk about the early game,

727
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:36,800
it is an early game, and I guess rob I

728
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,519
want to give them a couple of alternatives on how

729
00:35:39,559 --> 00:35:42,960
to bet this game. So the first alternative.

730
00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 1: Is very obvious.

731
00:35:44,679 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 2: Just try to get in play. Hope Austin P. This

732
00:35:47,599 --> 00:35:50,639
is their first couple of shots. Maybe FGCU comes out

733
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,360
on a little bit of a run and maybe you

734
00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,280
can grab three and a half or four in play.

735
00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:58,239
The other option money line it into something you really like.

736
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,599
Later you're gonna know the outcome. It's a one game.

737
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,039
And then the option I'm gonna go to you for,

738
00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,639
because you're the person that should talk about this, not me,

739
00:36:06,199 --> 00:36:08,840
is do you have an Austin P team total option?

740
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:11,519
The reason I don't really know is because part of

741
00:36:11,559 --> 00:36:16,599
this debt for me was assuming that JR. Conis coast Man.

742
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,920
Can't his name just can't be Smith. It's gotta be Coni. Ssney.

743
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:25,159
You know what I'm saying. Anyway, Florida Gulf Coast leading

744
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:28,440
scorer did not play last time out. Believe he got

745
00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,800
hurt in the Queen's game. I didn't think it was

746
00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:33,840
pricing the r line Originally. It looks like I'm right

747
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,880
about that because this thing is up from three and

748
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,280
a half to six and a half. So I took

749
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:41,519
the gubs rob Veno minus three and a half or

750
00:36:41,559 --> 00:36:45,000
four percent play. Can you give the folks a different

751
00:36:45,119 --> 00:36:47,800
way in on this one, because obviously that number is

752
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:48,320
long gone.

753
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 4: Well, I can tell you this. I bet the game

754
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:54,639
the first time around eighty two seventy one Austin P.

755
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:56,480
I was on the short end of the stick in

756
00:36:56,519 --> 00:36:59,519
that one because I had the FGCU team total over

757
00:37:00,039 --> 00:37:02,920
I think it was seventy seventy five and a half

758
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,880
that night. They only got the seventy one and they

759
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,039
just could not make a shot on their home floor

760
00:37:09,519 --> 00:37:13,519
and Austin I was really impressed with the way Austin

761
00:37:13,559 --> 00:37:17,119
P played in that game. They made a bunch of threes.

762
00:37:18,119 --> 00:37:21,360
Every time FGCU made a push, they made a push

763
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,280
coming out of the half. It was Austin P had

764
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,920
a response. They made a push at about the nine

765
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,480
minute mark, Austin P had a response. They went to

766
00:37:31,519 --> 00:37:34,119
the line when it counted and made their free throws.

767
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:38,119
They just looked like the better team in that game, Adam. Now,

768
00:37:38,119 --> 00:37:40,639
of course, in a thirty five game schedule, looking at

769
00:37:40,679 --> 00:37:43,679
one game and saying they're automatically the better team is

770
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,239
kind of crazy, So I won't say that I know

771
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:51,039
that they are. But without your leading scorer, there's just

772
00:37:51,119 --> 00:37:56,719
no way FGCU first time around. And Konni Seni, I

773
00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:01,559
guess twenty points in that game, leading scorer for Florida

774
00:38:01,599 --> 00:38:04,360
Gulf Coast, and he was, you know, as I'm trying

775
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,800
to FGCU on in that game, he was kind of

776
00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:11,239
the guy that was holding them together, but not enough.

777
00:38:11,559 --> 00:38:16,360
So I'll say this, Austin P plays at a pretty

778
00:38:16,360 --> 00:38:20,360
good pace. Florida Gulf Coast couldn't really get an advantage there.

779
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,880
They didn't defend the three whatsoever in that game. I

780
00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:26,920
don't know how they would defend it any better on

781
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:31,880
Austin P's home floor. I would think that you probably

782
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:35,519
get a pretty good point production day out of Austin P.

783
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,960
Once again, they don't have to travel here, Adam. I

784
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,920
mean this time change moving the game up doesn't affect

785
00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,079
Austin p nearly as much as it would affect Florida

786
00:38:45,119 --> 00:38:50,239
Gulf Coast in this game, so that's probably an added advantage.

787
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:55,960
Maybe Golf Coast enters a little bit lacka days ago

788
00:38:56,039 --> 00:38:58,679
to start. I mean, the trip to Clarksville, Tennessee is

789
00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:02,760
not easy, so for me, it would probably be I'm

790
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,480
going to get you the current number right now. Let's

791
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:07,599
see if we can get this team total up here.

792
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:14,000
We're staring at, yeah, eighty eighty and a half, probably

793
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,920
in a good place. They scored eighty two the first

794
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,519
time on the other team's home floor. They're basically asking

795
00:39:18,559 --> 00:39:22,800
you for the same game that you saw initially. I

796
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:25,119
don't know that I would disagree with that. Maybe a

797
00:39:25,159 --> 00:39:29,400
little look towards the Austin PE team total, they were

798
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,760
the more impressive team first time around, no doubt about it.

799
00:39:34,079 --> 00:39:38,559
Speaker 2: I mean, they've been impressive all year really for me,

800
00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,079
like this was a team that played a lot of

801
00:39:41,159 --> 00:39:44,639
road games in the non conference. I'm going off memory there,

802
00:39:44,639 --> 00:39:46,239
but I'm pretty sure they had their share of road

803
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,840
games as most of these teams do. You know, they

804
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,320
lost over the weekend the Lipscomb, but that was their

805
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:53,360
first league loss. They went into that game five and

806
00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:56,599
oh and that's a Lipscomb team that's also five and

807
00:39:56,639 --> 00:39:59,199
one in the league. Pretty solid, pretty solid team. They

808
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,960
always tend be good in the in this in this conference.

809
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,039
And then of course Queens is like kind of been

810
00:40:06,119 --> 00:40:09,000
awesome so far this year. They're seven to zero. I

811
00:40:09,039 --> 00:40:10,840
think I think just right there, you want to talk

812
00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,000
about the a Sun like those three teams are so

813
00:40:14,199 --> 00:40:17,159
clearly better than everyone else in this league that like,

814
00:40:17,199 --> 00:40:20,760
I think there's a pretty big drop off between Austin P,

815
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,480
who's currently I guess technically tied per second, so we'll

816
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:25,239
call it third because they lost the head to head

817
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,800
to Lipscomb, and then the next sort of wave of

818
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:32,079
teams Central Arkansas, stets In, West Georgia, Eastern Kentucky, Florida,

819
00:40:32,079 --> 00:40:34,159
Gulf Coast two and four in the league probably in

820
00:40:34,199 --> 00:40:37,480
that group as well. So I will, I mean again,

821
00:40:37,639 --> 00:40:39,440
figure out what to do with it. You can bet

822
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:42,400
it in game. Maybe you take Austin P first half

823
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:44,639
and then come over the top with the second half.

824
00:40:44,679 --> 00:40:47,320
If they somehow don't cover the first half, buy you

825
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:49,760
as saying, you know, just use Austin P money line

826
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:51,199
into something that you like later.

827
00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:52,679
Speaker 1: That's certainly an option as well.

828
00:40:53,559 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 2: Hopefully if you now listen ROB another promo for our package.

829
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,440
If you're on the double the Firepower package, you should

830
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,159
have had three and a half because that was out

831
00:41:01,159 --> 00:41:03,199
for that was out for a while. It was three

832
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:05,320
and a half or four for like a solid hour

833
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,159
hour and a half after I gave it out. It's

834
00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:11,320
now just getting up to six and a half. So yeah,

835
00:41:11,559 --> 00:41:13,519
and maybe see if there's a little buyback. I see

836
00:41:13,559 --> 00:41:15,920
a couple other spots just went back to six maybe

837
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:17,719
five and a half, So you know what, if you

838
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,440
can get it down to five before tip, I think

839
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,400
that's an okay look as well. But for me, I

840
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,119
think it's uh. I think we're just I think they're

841
00:41:26,119 --> 00:41:28,440
gonna cover all numbers. This feels like a game where

842
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:33,920
they just they start they ROB create space at some point,

843
00:41:34,199 --> 00:41:36,239
and then Florida Golf Coast starts to look at the

844
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,719
fact that they got to play tomorrow, right, because that's

845
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,320
the other thing. They move the Saturday games up in

846
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:44,639
this league to Friday, so they're gonna have to play tomorrow,

847
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,320
which has got to start to go through your thought

848
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,440
process of do we really want to max out on

849
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:51,679
trying to come back in this game. No, we're probably

850
00:41:51,719 --> 00:41:54,280
gonna look at our game that's in twenty four hours

851
00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,119
because the weather moved the Friday games up or the

852
00:41:57,159 --> 00:42:04,719
Thursday Saturday games up to Friday. Okay, all right, let's

853
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,760
go to the Nate Oates Bowl here, because this was

854
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:08,840
an interesting one to me.

855
00:42:09,159 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 1: I told I Tease.

856
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,800
Speaker 2: The fact that we have Nate Oates coaching trees is

857
00:42:14,039 --> 00:42:18,880
very much, very much featured on today's slate. And we've

858
00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:23,119
got Arkansas State Georgia Southern, which I believe pits two

859
00:42:23,199 --> 00:42:27,880
Oates disciples against each other. Robino, gonna be interesting game

860
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,960
for that. Julian asks for thoughts on this game. So

861
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:34,039
what are we thinking here? Who gets the better of

862
00:42:34,079 --> 00:42:36,280
the Nate Oates disciples clash in this one?

863
00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:38,760
Speaker 1: Well?

864
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,800
Speaker 4: I've paid attention to both so far this season, and

865
00:42:44,039 --> 00:42:46,400
where my luck has run with these two teams has

866
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:49,480
been better with Arkansas State than it has been with

867
00:42:49,639 --> 00:42:53,679
Charlie Henry and Georgia Southern. When I try to play

868
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:57,239
Georgia Southern team totals over, they don't quite get there.

869
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:01,360
But when I've played Arkansas State this season, I've had

870
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,920
really good luck. So here's what we know. We know

871
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,800
you're gonna get extreme pace. We know you're gonna get

872
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:09,960
a lot of threes. These teams do nothing but play

873
00:43:10,039 --> 00:43:12,920
high scoring games for the most part. Immediate look to

874
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,920
the total shows us something in the one seventies here,

875
00:43:16,119 --> 00:43:17,880
up from one seventy two and a half all the

876
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:21,679
way now as we speak to I mean, how about

877
00:43:21,679 --> 00:43:25,360
there's a couple of a couple of places at posting

878
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,599
one seventy six right now, But you can still get

879
00:43:28,599 --> 00:43:31,360
as low as one seventy four and a half. Shop

880
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,719
as best you can. There's no way I'm gonna put

881
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:38,199
anybody on under in this game. I do think that

882
00:43:38,679 --> 00:43:42,199
Arkansas State, off of a couple of losses in a

883
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,159
row here is the better way to go in this game.

884
00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,159
I just find them to be the better team, the

885
00:43:47,159 --> 00:43:51,639
more productive team, the more trustworthy team Dan Georgia Southern,

886
00:43:52,079 --> 00:43:54,960
and off of a couple of losses here, I think

887
00:43:55,039 --> 00:43:58,119
that probably adds a little fuel to the fire. Neither

888
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:01,679
side is great shakes defensively. Obviously the style has a

889
00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,360
lot to do with that. But I will say in

890
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,079
watching some Arkansas State games, they seem like the more

891
00:44:07,119 --> 00:44:11,679
capable team of making stops as opposed to Georgia Southern,

892
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:16,039
pretty much an Olay style defense. Here they're offered the

893
00:44:16,039 --> 00:44:21,559
OT loss to Coastal Carolina. Third home game, Yeah, third

894
00:44:21,599 --> 00:44:23,400
home game in a row. I thought it was back

895
00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:26,840
to backs, but it's three straight home games for Georgia Southern,

896
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,079
so it's certainly travel and schedule in their favor. But

897
00:44:30,519 --> 00:44:32,840
for me, Adam, it would be Arkansas State. I just

898
00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,320
the times I've watched them, I find them to be

899
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:41,199
better than Georgia Southern, and Georgia Southern, for what it's worth,

900
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:43,559
can go through and you know it's a high scoring team.

901
00:44:43,599 --> 00:44:46,639
To say droughts is not really fair, but I don't

902
00:44:46,639 --> 00:44:49,679
think they're as good as shooting team as the Arkansas

903
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,519
State side is. So for me, probably Arkansas State, off

904
00:44:52,559 --> 00:44:54,679
back to back losses, gets into the win column here.

905
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:01,280
Speaker 1: I have my concerns for both in this game.

906
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 2: I also think it's gonna be I also have a

907
00:45:04,039 --> 00:45:07,519
hard time seeing either team just totally like stopping the

908
00:45:07,559 --> 00:45:09,800
other team. So I think for me, I mean, I

909
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:12,280
guess this is probably. I can almost guarantee it's a

910
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,760
square opinion in this one, But hard to believe that

911
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:17,960
this one doesn't soar over like whatever number is is there.

912
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,400
Arkansas State has no ball handlers, so like that's probably

913
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,400
gonna be a problem for them. They're three hundred and

914
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,920
forty seventh nationally in turnovers, and this is the type

915
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,559
of team they will probably hit their season average of

916
00:45:29,639 --> 00:45:30,559
turnovers against.

917
00:45:31,639 --> 00:45:33,079
Speaker 1: You know, thirteen point eight a game.

918
00:45:33,119 --> 00:45:36,159
Speaker 2: You turn it over fourteen times, you're Arkansas State, you

919
00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,639
have no ball handler. Those are probably live ball turnovers

920
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,719
in play. Probably some easy points for Georgia Southern there,

921
00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:47,360
And then it's like, but Arkansas State should score here,

922
00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,639
no problem, Like I think Arkansas State will will do

923
00:45:50,719 --> 00:45:53,840
their share of scoring. If you let Georgia Southern get

924
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:56,599
into some offense, that's a problem for Arkansas State, who

925
00:45:56,599 --> 00:45:59,079
doesn't defend the paint very well. So again it looks

926
00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,400
it feels to me like there's probably points on both sides.

927
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:06,360
I I've liked the Georgia Southern side more than the

928
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:08,519
Arkansas State side this year, So I kind of went

929
00:46:08,559 --> 00:46:11,639
into my handicap here kind of looking to make a

930
00:46:11,679 --> 00:46:14,840
case for Georgia Southern. I really couldn't, but I didn't.

931
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:19,039
I couldn't really find like reasons to think that like

932
00:46:19,159 --> 00:46:21,599
they that that Arkansas State's gonna win this game either.

933
00:46:21,639 --> 00:46:23,960
So for me, just the way that both teams play,

934
00:46:24,159 --> 00:46:27,000
both teams get shots up, Rob, what do you have

935
00:46:27,119 --> 00:46:29,800
your your metric there? That was the one you used

936
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:33,000
for the USF example. I don't know if that's something

937
00:46:33,039 --> 00:46:36,320
you have like readily available, but like it is, you know,

938
00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:40,400
similar us F U A B. You pulled the something

939
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,960
from the first Like, yeah, there's got to be a

940
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:45,280
lot from in this game.

941
00:46:45,519 --> 00:46:47,880
Speaker 1: I don't have these two teams played yet. I can't

942
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,840
now now I'm trying to remember offhand, hope.

943
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,960
Speaker 4: They haven't played yet to the best of my knowledge,

944
00:46:54,039 --> 00:46:56,480
and that's probably why I wouldn't have a number on it.

945
00:46:56,559 --> 00:46:58,840
Yeah yeah, yeah, okay, until we see it one time

946
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,039
and then we can. But I mean, to your point,

947
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,519
there's no way you play under I think I said

948
00:47:04,519 --> 00:47:08,559
that off the bat. You just can't. It's gonna be

949
00:47:08,599 --> 00:47:11,320
greyhound style basketball. There probably will be a lot of

950
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:13,679
fouls in this game too, Adam, which helps all the

951
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:18,440
time in this type of games. So for me, like

952
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:20,599
I say, I just I find Arkansas State, and this

953
00:47:20,639 --> 00:47:24,480
is probably with some bias because when I play Arkansas State,

954
00:47:24,519 --> 00:47:26,559
I've had better luck and when I played Georgia Southern

955
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:31,480
bias aside. Total's got to be an over and if

956
00:47:31,519 --> 00:47:34,119
you're looking at side, I would probably look at Arkansas

957
00:47:34,119 --> 00:47:37,239
State here, but that's you know, nothing that I bet.

958
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,280
So let's not get too carried away.

959
00:47:41,159 --> 00:47:43,519
Speaker 1: All right, Rob, you know we have twelve minutes left.

960
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:46,039
Speaker 2: I think you know what, Let's try to give ourselves

961
00:47:46,079 --> 00:47:48,280
a better chance to win today. Let's go to teamer.

962
00:47:49,119 --> 00:47:52,320
I've got a couple in mind. I could go right

963
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:54,000
now if you want me to, But if you kind

964
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:55,559
of know where you want to go with the parlay,

965
00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:56,880
I'll let you have the floor.

966
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:58,039
Speaker 1: What do you think.

967
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:00,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm looking up the number right now because I

968
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:03,719
want to just double back and do what I did

969
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,119
last week here or earlier this week. But let me

970
00:48:06,159 --> 00:48:14,000
just make sure I'm in a good spot, all right.

971
00:48:14,039 --> 00:48:16,840
So here here's the dilemma. It's gonna be the Kenchie's

972
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:18,880
Sacred Heart game, because I just want to play Sacred

973
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:22,480
Hearts offense until I can't play it any longer. They're

974
00:48:23,679 --> 00:48:28,599
totals numbers, and this is a great thing when you're

975
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:35,840
betting the college basketball season without am Kwan Hill. For

976
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:39,000
the long swatch of games that they didn't have him,

977
00:48:39,519 --> 00:48:42,280
He developed different scoring habits, and the odds makers don't

978
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:46,280
come off of those numbers really quickly, especially in a

979
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,599
conference like this. They're not coming off of the fact

980
00:48:48,639 --> 00:48:53,280
that Sacred Heart is a far superior scoring team now

981
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:57,159
than they were then. They use overall season statistics, they're

982
00:48:57,159 --> 00:48:59,960
not using last three, last four games like we are here.

983
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,000
Their team total ADAM varies seventy five and a half

984
00:49:04,079 --> 00:49:06,039
seventy six and a half. You can get either number.

985
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:09,199
The full game total is interesting as well, at one

986
00:49:09,320 --> 00:49:11,280
forty three and a half. And I almost feel like

987
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,920
I'm better off going that direction because I don't trust

988
00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:19,360
Sacred Hearts defense to do anything. We talked about and

989
00:49:19,559 --> 00:49:23,639
you know this best, but the canacious road trips in

990
00:49:23,679 --> 00:49:28,000
this league. Heading to Connecticut now Fairfield, Connecticut in the

991
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:32,719
midst of snow and whatnot, probably not the best trip

992
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,719
for them, But I still think they can score against

993
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:39,599
Sacred Hearts defense, which has been absolutely terrible so far

994
00:49:39,679 --> 00:49:42,360
this year. And with hill back. We talked about this

995
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,880
a lot the other day when they was it Monday.

996
00:49:45,199 --> 00:49:47,800
They hung one hundred points in.

997
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,519
Speaker 1: That game, A yeah, one oh five, I think, yeah.

998
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:53,000
Speaker 4: Afternoon game. So for me, I want to play this

999
00:49:53,119 --> 00:49:55,719
until I wear it out and I can't play it anymore.

1000
00:49:56,880 --> 00:50:01,960
I'm gonna give the chat room a choice Sacred Heart

1001
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,559
Team total over or full game total over for the

1002
00:50:05,599 --> 00:50:08,760
parlay purposes, I'm gonna go full game, Adam, I like

1003
00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:10,679
over one forty three and a half here because I

1004
00:50:10,719 --> 00:50:14,960
feel like Secret Heart's gonna get eighty plus and Kanisius

1005
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:17,360
can get seventy against this team, So I like over

1006
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,840
one forty three and a half as part of our parlay.

1007
00:50:21,440 --> 00:50:23,920
And again for those watching, you know, if you want

1008
00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:25,840
to get involved with your Sacred Heart Team total two,

1009
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:29,880
I would I would stand behind that as well, all.

1010
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 2: Right, I yeah, I got an idea, so by you,

1011
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,360
byous step In, I said, Bayu's got you know, if

1012
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:39,039
he wants to put up a third leg. Remember Bayou's

1013
00:50:39,079 --> 00:50:40,800
want to zero on the show in the parlay, and

1014
00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,199
I told him when he's ready to fire again.

1015
00:50:43,679 --> 00:50:45,599
Speaker 1: That that he can. So he he wants to take

1016
00:50:45,679 --> 00:50:46,199
leg three.

1017
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:48,599
Speaker 2: By you give me like a couple of words on

1018
00:50:48,639 --> 00:50:50,800
the game that you want, and I will because we

1019
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:53,079
got to get an extra game in here before the

1020
00:50:53,119 --> 00:50:54,840
gun anyway, So bye bye, you give me a couple

1021
00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:56,960
of words, on why you like that side. We'll throw

1022
00:50:57,000 --> 00:51:00,360
it in real quick to wrap up this sacred heart

1023
00:51:00,599 --> 00:51:03,679
Canicious discussion and to just sort of support the points

1024
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:07,079
you made for the full game. Total is is You know,

1025
00:51:07,119 --> 00:51:10,039
Canisius is improving. They're starting to play better.

1026
00:51:10,079 --> 00:51:10,760
Speaker 1: They they were.

1027
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:12,920
Speaker 2: They got a couple of guys back. I saw they

1028
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,360
kicked the one dude off the team. Actually it was

1029
00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:18,599
might it might be one of the more aggressive, uh

1030
00:51:19,039 --> 00:51:21,559
things I've seen in a while where Jim Christian came

1031
00:51:21,599 --> 00:51:24,239
out and he was like, yeah, he's gone, like he's

1032
00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:26,760
like he he just he just wasn't acting. It was

1033
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:29,400
Marcus Niblack that got kicked off the team, and he

1034
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,559
was straight up like, yeah, guy just isn't isn't acting

1035
00:51:32,599 --> 00:51:34,480
the way that we wanted to act. He's gone, Like

1036
00:51:34,519 --> 00:51:38,440
it was very blunt, almost him saying like, yeah, we're

1037
00:51:38,679 --> 00:51:41,159
we're not messing around. Remember Jim Christian took this team

1038
00:51:41,199 --> 00:51:43,840
over from the very very bottom. I mean he was

1039
00:51:44,679 --> 00:51:48,039
he was left with like because it was Reggie Witherspoon

1040
00:51:48,079 --> 00:51:50,559
for years and then all those guys that he had

1041
00:51:50,599 --> 00:51:54,719
transferred and then he was left to pretty much start over. Well,

1042
00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:56,880
you know what, like Canisius is starting to figure it out.

1043
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,639
They're not They're not a a you know, the top

1044
00:51:59,679 --> 00:52:02,280
half the MAC yet by any means. But this is

1045
00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:04,559
a team that's very impressive that they're three and five

1046
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,760
in MAC play so far this year. They you know,

1047
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:11,119
on the road, they're always gonna play a little bit worse,

1048
00:52:11,159 --> 00:52:12,880
so there's a good chance that they give up a

1049
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:16,400
big number. But I do think they help out enough here, Rob,

1050
00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:18,840
and if they help out at all, you're probably gonna

1051
00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:19,360
get this one.

1052
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:22,559
Speaker 1: So I'm with you. That's all I have to add.

1053
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:24,039
And that is Rob's leg.

1054
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 2: Which is gonna be the over in Keanisha's Sacred Heart

1055
00:52:26,480 --> 00:52:30,159
over one forty three and a half. I wasn't sure

1056
00:52:30,199 --> 00:52:32,519
what I was gonna do for the parlay, and people

1057
00:52:32,559 --> 00:52:35,920
want to talk Maris Sianna, and I teased it at

1058
00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,480
the top of the show, So I'm throwing my boys

1059
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:39,440
in the parlay tonight.

1060
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 1: Sianna, We're gonna go with the money line.

1061
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,639
Speaker 2: I believe they moved up from pick to minus one

1062
00:52:45,679 --> 00:52:48,119
and a half, Rob Vino, while I'm talking about this game,

1063
00:52:48,119 --> 00:52:49,480
if you can, if you can tell me what a

1064
00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:53,880
fair Sianna money line is, I'd appreciate it. Reason I

1065
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:57,400
like them here, Brandon, Coyle, Brand and Coyle last game

1066
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:01,119
for Sianna had a great shooting game. And this is

1067
00:53:01,159 --> 00:53:04,719
a guy that was an assassin from three last year.

1068
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,000
He has been in a huge ruck from a confidence

1069
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:13,159
standpoint this season, and it's really really hurt Sienna because

1070
00:53:13,199 --> 00:53:16,119
they do not have a wealth of three point shooters

1071
00:53:16,159 --> 00:53:18,599
and teams have figured out that they can go a

1072
00:53:18,639 --> 00:53:20,960
little bit of zone against them and force them to

1073
00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:24,360
shoot the three. Gavin Doti is a tremendous player, best

1074
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,199
player on Cianna's team, one of the best players in

1075
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:28,559
the matt Conference. But he's not a guy that's just

1076
00:53:28,559 --> 00:53:30,599
going to sit there and pull up from three. He

1077
00:53:30,639 --> 00:53:32,320
needs to be able to get off the dribble, get

1078
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:36,239
to the rim, and they hadn't been able to do

1079
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:42,280
that until Monday, when when Coyle broke out hit four

1080
00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:45,440
threes against Fairfield, all of them were in the second half,

1081
00:53:45,639 --> 00:53:48,400
got a shot going the game before he hit seven

1082
00:53:48,679 --> 00:53:51,519
against Manhattan and went for twenty three and ten. That's

1083
00:53:51,559 --> 00:53:53,880
back to back good shooting games for a guy that

1084
00:53:54,079 --> 00:53:58,119
was ice cold coming into that coming into the Manhattan game,

1085
00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:01,480
and it's turned into back to back blowout wins for Sienna.

1086
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:05,840
Sianna comes in three twenty second nationally and three point shooting.

1087
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:09,079
So to get a guy that's easily your best three

1088
00:54:09,119 --> 00:54:12,679
point shooter to start sort of cooking again and get

1089
00:54:12,679 --> 00:54:15,960
that competence back is huge. He always shoots the ball

1090
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:18,920
better at home. This is where that game is tonight,

1091
00:54:19,039 --> 00:54:23,199
MVP Arena, and I just think to get Maris has

1092
00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:26,239
shown some big time flaws in my opinion, especially at

1093
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:29,000
the offensive end. That's just I mean, listen, that's a

1094
00:54:29,119 --> 00:54:32,320
John dunn That's a characteristic of a John Dunne team

1095
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,719
is to have offensive flaws. They're a team that's gonna

1096
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:37,960
come out and it's going to be all defense. But

1097
00:54:38,599 --> 00:54:40,760
you know, Sienna's done a good job of defending without

1098
00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,519
fouling at times this year. Maris really needs to get

1099
00:54:43,519 --> 00:54:45,320
to the line. That's how they score a lot of

1100
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:47,679
their points. Maris is not gonna come out and hit

1101
00:54:47,679 --> 00:54:49,480
a bunch of jumpers against you. They're not a great

1102
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,599
three point shooting team. I don't think. I think if

1103
00:54:52,639 --> 00:54:54,960
Coyle has another good shooting game, Rob Vino, I don't

1104
00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:58,000
think Marist can do what they like to do to

1105
00:54:58,119 --> 00:55:01,159
teams to win a game in this guard Siana right

1106
00:55:01,199 --> 00:55:04,920
now most efficient offense in the MAC and I think

1107
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:07,519
that with and that's with Coyle having a bad slump

1108
00:55:07,519 --> 00:55:10,559
and they've been without Tasman Goodrick. So I think Sianna

1109
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:12,639
minus won twenty five of the money line.

1110
00:55:12,679 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 1: They're at home.

1111
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:16,880
Speaker 2: Marist is still sort of our rival, the I eighty

1112
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,800
seven rivalry Rob Bino. They're gonna get on the North Way,

1113
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:21,840
come up to all beneat tonight, and I think they're

1114
00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:24,400
leaving with a loss. So Sienna's gonna be my leg

1115
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:27,280
of the parlay and anything to add to that one

1116
00:55:27,320 --> 00:55:27,679
from you.

1117
00:55:28,519 --> 00:55:30,199
Speaker 4: Well, I will tell you this. We don't even have

1118
00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,679
to be fair on the money line price because it's

1119
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:37,280
basically universal minus one twenty five. You see that everywhere,

1120
00:55:37,599 --> 00:55:41,039
So if you can do better during the day, but

1121
00:55:41,159 --> 00:55:43,760
right now one twenty five is everywhere on this game.

1122
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,000
So that's what we would be lang And I thought

1123
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:51,679
that maybe subliminally my being in like this, you know,

1124
00:55:52,159 --> 00:55:56,639
Hunter Green Polo today would maybe point you towards Sienna.

1125
00:55:57,039 --> 00:55:59,880
Maybe a little team color out of myself to push

1126
00:56:00,079 --> 00:56:03,440
in the right direction. Maybe it'll be good luck. But yeah, well,

1127
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:05,320
I mean you make great points about the Siana side,

1128
00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,039
so let's get them in there, and let's see what

1129
00:56:07,039 --> 00:56:07,920
Bayo has to add.

1130
00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:13,400
Speaker 2: So Bayou's gonna add Denver. He likes Denver plus four

1131
00:56:13,440 --> 00:56:15,880
and a half. For those of you new to the show,

1132
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:19,480
that's my buddy, Keith Bayou Betts Landry. He stepped in

1133
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,880
maybe a month ago to give out a play for

1134
00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,719
the parlay and it hit. So I told him anytime

1135
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:28,159
he wants to come back and try to run it back,

1136
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:29,599
he's welcome to do.

1137
00:56:29,679 --> 00:56:29,800
Speaker 1: So.

1138
00:56:29,880 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 2: He has chose today. So it's been like a month

1139
00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:35,480
and he's chose today. He says, if a third leg

1140
00:56:35,599 --> 00:56:37,760
has to be added, and I'll go to you Rob

1141
00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:40,639
for any additional context here, I'm gonna just read what

1142
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:43,000
he has to say. If a third leg has to

1143
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:44,840
be added, he wants to add Denver plus four and

1144
00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:47,000
a half. He really likes them tonight. And then he

1145
00:56:47,039 --> 00:56:50,119
follows up with Denver's been off for eight days, stayed

1146
00:56:50,159 --> 00:56:52,840
at home North Dakota State six and oh in the

1147
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:55,400
Summit League, coming off a huge home win over Saint Thomas,

1148
00:56:55,800 --> 00:56:58,719
Prime spot to upset the Bison tonight and break the

1149
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:01,079
six and oh record. And I'll tell you, Rob, you know,

1150
00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:03,679
rest is good for a team that plays the way

1151
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:06,800
Denver does. Eight days off sounds pretty good because they

1152
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:08,880
have played an awful lot of high scoring games so

1153
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:09,519
far this year.

1154
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, they have, and it's by design, obviously, it's what

1155
00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:15,519
they want to do. As I'll say to Keith, I

1156
00:57:15,559 --> 00:57:19,960
looked immediately toward this total. I think North Dakota State

1157
00:57:20,119 --> 00:57:24,239
is going to have to play the style Denver plays,

1158
00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:27,199
and North Dakota State is certainly capable of scoring. A

1159
00:57:27,199 --> 00:57:29,519
lot of teams capable of scoring against the Denver team

1160
00:57:29,559 --> 00:57:33,559
they almost like it that way you put it through

1161
00:57:33,559 --> 00:57:35,119
the net, they're just going to come back down the

1162
00:57:35,119 --> 00:57:36,719
other end of the floor twice as fast. So for

1163
00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:39,519
me it was more of a look toward total. But

1164
00:57:39,599 --> 00:57:42,719
the explanation the analysis there of the extra time off

1165
00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:45,880
and the North Dakota State huge win now having to

1166
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:48,679
travel makes a lot of sense as far as situational

1167
00:57:48,679 --> 00:57:52,079
handicapping is concerned. You get a home underdog that can

1168
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:56,559
score and that has proven Adam throughout the course of

1169
00:57:56,559 --> 00:57:59,119
the year so far to be able to knock some

1170
00:57:59,239 --> 00:58:01,800
teams off that are a little bit better than them.

1171
00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:07,079
The whole results here plus thirteen win over Missouri Kansas

1172
00:58:07,079 --> 00:58:11,360
City plus eleven win over Oral robertson their last outing.

1173
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,599
A couple of other games it didn't really matter as

1174
00:58:14,599 --> 00:58:17,199
far as league is concerned, but they beat Eastern Washington here,

1175
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:20,679
So Denver's got the ability to outscore people. Here, you're

1176
00:58:20,679 --> 00:58:24,239
getting points. I think it's a good situational handicap for me.

1177
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,719
If anybody's looking for a further play on this game,

1178
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:29,000
I would look over the total.

1179
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I definitely agree with Bye here. This

1180
00:58:33,119 --> 00:58:35,559
is not my strength. Summit League's not really my strength.

1181
00:58:35,599 --> 00:58:37,880
But will I will say, just like I've watched a

1182
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:40,519
fair amount of North Dakota State this year, I feel

1183
00:58:40,519 --> 00:58:42,960
like they've definitely sort of played over their heads, like

1184
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,840
to be unbeaten in the league at this point and

1185
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:48,800
then to sort of like max out on effort to

1186
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:50,880
get that win over the weekend against Saint Thomas. That

1187
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:52,880
was actually a game I like Saint Thomas. I think

1188
00:58:53,079 --> 00:58:54,599
they were plus two and a half. I'm glad I

1189
00:58:54,639 --> 00:58:57,400
didn't play it because North Dakota State managed to win

1190
00:58:57,440 --> 00:59:01,079
a very close game by three. Yeah, they without a

1191
00:59:01,159 --> 00:59:03,119
doubt agree with the fact that they've got a loss

1192
00:59:03,119 --> 00:59:06,039
coming to them in some league play, probably sooner than later.

1193
00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:10,199
Going to altitudes never easy even for you know, it's

1194
00:59:10,199 --> 00:59:12,880
not like North Dakota State is like this crazy altitude team.

1195
00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:15,199
So they're gonna have to go play in Denver tonight.

1196
00:59:15,679 --> 00:59:19,320
Yeah bye, you, I could see that. I'm with you there.

1197
00:59:19,360 --> 00:59:21,280
So let's see if by you can run his record

1198
00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:23,880
in the parlay to two and zero, and hopefully we

1199
00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:25,800
can hit this three teamer because we really need to

1200
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,679
hit one. It would put us right back around even

1201
00:59:28,719 --> 00:59:31,880
on the parlay this year if we can hit this

1202
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:34,559
one tonight. So as we wrap up the show, remember

1203
00:59:35,519 --> 00:59:37,000
Rob and I, you can get all of our place

1204
00:59:37,079 --> 00:59:39,440
for a three day period with that double the fire

1205
00:59:39,639 --> 00:59:42,800
Power CBB package that's up on both of our pages.

1206
00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:45,880
For the three team er today, I'm going with Siena

1207
00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:50,360
College call me a homer. Listen, Maris is not coming

1208
00:59:50,400 --> 00:59:52,880
into our building tonight and leaving with a win. I'm

1209
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,280
just gonna tell you that right now. So Sienna on

1210
00:59:55,320 --> 00:59:59,239
the money line. Rob Bino's going with the over Sacred

1211
00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:02,079
Heart knees over one forty three and a half, and

1212
01:00:02,119 --> 01:00:05,360
then we've got Keith Bayou beets Landry Denver plus four

1213
01:00:05,400 --> 01:00:07,920
and a half. That three teamer is gonna be a

1214
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,800
shade under six to one. I'll do the exact calculation,

1215
01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:13,920
but obviously shop it around. The only thing really altering

1216
01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:17,199
the odds being that Ciena money line minus one twenty five.

1217
01:00:18,119 --> 01:00:20,320
We'll see you guys in the morning for more Full

1218
01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:20,880
Court Press.

1219
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:26,719
Speaker 1: Have a great day everyone. Let's cash the tickets.
