1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,080 Speaker 1: We go behind the counter with our great friend John Murray, 2 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,519 the vice president here at the Super Book. Yes, it 3 00:00:05,639 --> 00:00:09,279 is time. The contest deadline is approaching. Matter of fact, today, 4 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:13,240 for the very first time, the College Contest seven picks 5 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:15,919 that you're picking against the spread a five hundred dollars 6 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:18,640 entry fee, and just got moments to get signed up 7 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,079 for that. But you still got plenty of time for 8 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,760 the other contests, including the best, the long time one 9 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,359 here at the Super Book, and that is the Super 10 00:00:26,399 --> 00:00:29,559 Contest fifteen hundred dollars entry fee this year with so 11 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,840 many different ways to win, and John, I got to 12 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,679 imagine that, you know, you got extra people working those 13 00:00:35,719 --> 00:00:38,119 windows like you do at this time every year. Very 14 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,399 popular weekend here. But let's talk about the College Contest. 15 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:45,240 Is that will commence here for the very first time. 16 00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:47,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we're gonna end up around eleven hundred 17 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:51,039 entries and we're pretty happy with that. You know, first 18 00:00:51,119 --> 00:00:54,439 year contest. No, a lot of people didn't know about it, 19 00:00:54,479 --> 00:00:56,439 didn't know we were doing it. So I think what 20 00:00:56,439 --> 00:00:59,359 you're going to see is next year there'll be word 21 00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:02,200 of mouth, people telling their friends about the contest. And 22 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,560 I think next year you're gonna see a lot more 23 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,400 people in it. I think it's been very very well 24 00:01:06,439 --> 00:01:09,680 received and we're very happy with the turnout on it all. 25 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 1: Right, then, of course the Super Contest you still got 26 00:01:11,879 --> 00:01:14,400 time to get signed up with that as well too, 27 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,599 and again raise the entry fee a little bit with that, 28 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,760 talk a little bit about the reasons why. And then 29 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,439 you still have plenty of opportunity to win the in 30 00:01:26,599 --> 00:01:28,319 season contests as well too, So there's a lot of 31 00:01:28,359 --> 00:01:29,280 money that you can win on this. 32 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 2: The simple reason is we want to have more money 33 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:34,400 in the prize pool. You know, the decision is which 34 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,640 what will get you more money in. 35 00:01:36,599 --> 00:01:39,079 Speaker 3: The prize pool. You have to think it'll hurt. 36 00:01:39,079 --> 00:01:42,159 Speaker 2: Number of entries, but we believe that it would increase 37 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,159 the money in the pool. 38 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 3: And if you look at the week over week comparisons. 39 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 2: Which of course we are looking at, there is a 40 00:01:47,959 --> 00:01:50,040 lot more money in the pool at this time than 41 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,560 there was a year ago. So so far it has worked. 42 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,480 There are eight days to go, we'll see how it 43 00:01:55,599 --> 00:01:58,680 ends up. But if you're looking to get in the 44 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,799 Super Contest and if there's less people in it than 45 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,200 there were last year and there's more money in the 46 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:05,079 prize pool than there. 47 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 3: Was last year. 48 00:02:05,879 --> 00:02:09,199 Speaker 2: That's a win win for you. Less competition, more money. 49 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,879 We're trying to get that winning amount, you know, back 50 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:12,879 up to a bigger number. 51 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 1: What do the entries look like now in comparison to 52 00:02:15,719 --> 00:02:16,159 last year. 53 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,199 Speaker 2: It's fewer entries, but there's more money, right So, I 54 00:02:20,199 --> 00:02:23,520 don't know the exact number. I don't know the exact 55 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,520 number of what we had at this time, this exact 56 00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:26,280 day last year. 57 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 3: But it's not so much less. 58 00:02:29,479 --> 00:02:32,039 Speaker 2: That it's impacted the prize pool negatively, because now you're 59 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,159 getting fifty percent more money every sign up. 60 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: So so far it is working. 61 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: But see with that mindset too, you could equal or 62 00:02:41,439 --> 00:02:45,240 maybe even surpass the total number of entries. Because of 63 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,439 that point, you're just saying, because people don't know how 64 00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:49,639 many people are actually in the contest, how many they're 65 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:52,639 competing against, until you know once the contest actually starts. 66 00:02:52,759 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: Oh, that's true. We know we're going to get a 67 00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:57,719 rush of entries the next eight days. There always is. 68 00:02:58,319 --> 00:03:00,520 I saw Marco running here today. 69 00:03:00,599 --> 00:03:03,159 Speaker 2: Oh he did sign over for the college contest. Wait 70 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:04,719 talk about waiting until the eleventh hour. 71 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: I wanted to give you a bad time about that. 72 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,680 In the opening segment. But I'm glad John brought that up. 73 00:03:08,719 --> 00:03:10,759 I mean, you come in here, you're gassed. You're saying, 74 00:03:10,759 --> 00:03:12,960 oh my god. Guy, He's like, what happened to you? 75 00:03:13,039 --> 00:03:14,400 What's going on, mister organization? 76 00:03:14,439 --> 00:03:17,159 Speaker 4: We weren't here the last two Fridays, That's what happened. 77 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,199 Speaker 1: I wasn't here, but you were. You were in town. 78 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:21,199 Speaker 4: I was in town. 79 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, but we weren't on Yeah, that actually is. 80 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,719 Speaker 2: A pretty good answer. It's a pretty good answer now 81 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,639 that I do know. There's always a big rush. I 82 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,240 think one thing you're gonna see next week is people 83 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,319 are gonna wait to see the result of that Dallas 84 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,240 Philadelphia game and it might determine, well, how many people 85 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,840 get into the Survivor contest. I think people are going 86 00:03:41,919 --> 00:03:44,080 to use the Eagles and Survivor, and I think there's 87 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,520 people that are gonna want to wait to see the 88 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,520 result of that game before they determine will I get 89 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,159 into Survivor how many entries will I do in Survivor 90 00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:54,280 because there are gonna be people that use the use 91 00:03:54,319 --> 00:03:56,560 the Eagles, and there will be dead money in the 92 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,639 pool if Dallas wins on Thursday night. 93 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, that got hurt with trade and away. 94 00:04:02,159 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, although we didn't. 95 00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:06,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, honestly, we didn't really think Parsons was going to 96 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:08,120 play on Thursday anyway. 97 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,719 Speaker 3: I mean, I guess it's possible. 98 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,599 Speaker 2: But it's just it's hard to picture any scenario in 99 00:04:13,639 --> 00:04:16,560 which they'd come to a deal and then Parsons would 100 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,319 have been ready to play Thursday night football. 101 00:04:18,439 --> 00:04:20,319 Speaker 3: I just I don't see that happening. 102 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: Back to the contest though, So if you enter the 103 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,920 Survivor contest before Thursday, you can use that Thursday game. 104 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,120 But then again, it's still open, so that just gives 105 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,240 you one less game to use. Safety sign up Friday 106 00:04:32,319 --> 00:04:33,079 or Saturday, right. 107 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, you could use that game. You can use the 108 00:04:34,439 --> 00:04:36,439 Friday game. I don't think that's going to be popular 109 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,079 Survivor game, but you could do that. And if you 110 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,519 were to go, if you were to use the Eagles 111 00:04:41,519 --> 00:04:43,079 on Thursday, let's say they do lose to. 112 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 3: Dallas, you could come right back in here on Friday. 113 00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:48,680 Sign up again. We'd love to have another five thousand 114 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:49,079 of your money. 115 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,399 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, so yeah, there's I think that'll be a 116 00:04:52,439 --> 00:04:53,560 semi popular play. 117 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,959 Speaker 4: What's gonna end up at if they lose? Okay, the 118 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,040 contest becomes plus ev for any buddy that it enters 119 00:05:01,079 --> 00:05:04,279 in because you know, remember last year we had that 120 00:05:04,439 --> 00:05:09,240 record breaking elimination first week when Cincinnati went down.

Almost 123 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,319 fifty percent of the contestant. 124 00:05:16,759 --> 00:05:20,079 Speaker 3: It was like over five thousand people. Yeah.

And I was like, you're not 188 00:07:42,759 --> 00:07:43,639 gonna believe me, mom. 189 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:45,439 Speaker 3: He knew Kelly. 190 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,879 Speaker 1: All right. We had mentioned the Micah Parson's trade to 191 00:07:48,959 --> 00:07:51,319 Green Bay. Let's talk a little bit about the effects there. 192 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,800 I imagine you know green Bay's odds have now improved. 193 00:07:55,839 --> 00:07:57,920 What kind of movement have you have you done with that? Yeah? 194 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:58,199 We did. 195 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,879 Speaker 2: I mean you had the packers from twenty to one 196 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,399 down to twelve to one, and then the other adjustment 197 00:08:03,399 --> 00:08:05,439 that you need to make other than raising Dallas, of 198 00:08:05,439 --> 00:08:08,680 course you do that, but we also raised Detroit and Chicago. 199 00:08:09,079 --> 00:08:12,399 So this makes the NFC North, which was already pretty 200 00:08:12,439 --> 00:08:13,399 tough division. 201 00:08:13,079 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 3: To begin with. 202 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,639 Speaker 2: Detroit obviously they go into the season with Super Bowl aspirations, 203 00:08:17,959 --> 00:08:20,319 Minnesota was one game away from being the one seed 204 00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:23,439 last year, Chicago expects to make the playoffs, and now 205 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,040 Green Bay ads Michael Parsons, So you had to adjust 206 00:08:26,079 --> 00:08:27,279 those other teams in the division. 207 00:08:27,879 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 3: And then of course Laura and the Packers. 208 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:35,639 Speaker 1: Opening night in the NFL Thursday Night Dallas at Philadelphia, 209 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,399 we saw that number six rise up to six and 210 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,679 a half or so. I would imagine even had some 211 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:45,000 more action on Philly, you know, with the announcement of 212 00:08:45,039 --> 00:08:47,759 this trade and again now Dallas playing, you know without 213 00:08:47,799 --> 00:08:49,399 Micaeh Parsons. What have we seen there? 214 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:51,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're what you're gonna get in that game for sure, 215 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,759 is a lot of teaser and money line action to 216 00:08:54,799 --> 00:08:58,039 the favorite to Philadelphia. We've had games like this in 217 00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,039 the past where the team's been around a seven ish 218 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,039 point favorite. I remember one year it was actually before 219 00:09:04,039 --> 00:09:07,559 Mahomes was the quarterback. Kansas City went into New England 220 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,120 in this game and they were like a seven and 221 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,919 a half eight point dog and they won, and the 222 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,240 book just cleaned up on that game. And then I 223 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,440 think it was two years ago, Detroit was around this 224 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:21,080 level of a dog in Kansas City and they won 225 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:23,639 and the book did very well in that game. So 226 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,440 this has happened before, where you know, it's hard to 227 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:29,399 picture a seven point underdog winning, but it's you know, 228 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:30,480 it's it's. 229 00:09:30,279 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 3: Not always easy as it looks in the NFL, especially 230 00:09:33,159 --> 00:09:36,320 opening week. Yeah, and I and it's a division. Games 231 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:37,159 are familiar with each other. 232 00:09:37,159 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: And let's be honest, the super Bowl hangover does play 233 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:40,720 into that because yeah, we've seen that. 234 00:09:40,879 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 3: Oh, we've definitely seen that. 235 00:09:41,799 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Philadelphia that you know, they've got bigger fish 236 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,440 to fry. They're not They're they're back to win the 237 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,039 super Bowl again. So let's just see, like, let's see 238 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,799 what the mood is of Dallas. Could this be a 239 00:09:51,799 --> 00:09:54,600 good thing to get rid of Parsons? I mean, you 240 00:09:54,639 --> 00:09:57,159 don't trade a player like him unless he's causing you 241 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,879 some headaches. He's very he's way too good of a 242 00:10:00,919 --> 00:10:05,000 player to trade. Maybe now that he's gone. That distraction's gone. 243 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:09,000 The offense, if it stays healthy, is very good in Dallas. 244 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 4: But the defense just took a major stuff here, a 245 00:10:12,039 --> 00:10:14,240 huge and it wasn't a great defense to start with. 246 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,799 Speaker 1: But like John said, there was no guarantee that he 247 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,279 was going to play anyway. Now, conventional wisdom said that 248 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,519 he will probably play, but no one has seen this 249 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,519 guy work out. He's been hanging around practice without pads, 250 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,200 just you know, all by himself, and you know, hanging 251 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,759 out with different you know, players, coaches and just you know, 252 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,600 just a whole bad you know, vibe in chemistry there. 253 00:10:35,639 --> 00:10:37,840 But if the guy was in shape and ready to 254 00:10:37,879 --> 00:10:39,440 go and he said, okay, I'm just going to suck 255 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,120 it up and I'm going to play for my twenty 256 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,000 one million dollars, you know, this season, you know he 257 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,320 is playing. I think for the most part. Again he's yeah, 258 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,120 you know, I don't think that. You know, I know, 259 00:10:50,159 --> 00:10:51,960 you said, John, you didn't think that he would play. 260 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,919 But I'm thinking if he would probably still play, and again, 261 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,440 you're paying him the twenty one million, and if he's 262 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,759 not in shape, well that's on him, you know, I think. 263 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,720 But as a coach, you know, you got to go 264 00:11:02,759 --> 00:11:04,279 to war with your best defensive player. 265 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,279 Speaker 2: Well, to say he wouldn't have played wasn't really a 266 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,039 good way to say it. I don't think he would 267 00:11:09,039 --> 00:11:11,399 have been Michael Parsons. I don't think he would have 268 00:11:11,399 --> 00:11:14,279 been the impact player that he's been the last few years, 269 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,000 A guy that you know, we consider to be really 270 00:11:17,039 --> 00:11:20,039 one of the only there's only so many players in 271 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:23,399 the NFL that don't play quarterback that really could infect 272 00:11:23,399 --> 00:11:24,279 the futures market. 273 00:11:25,039 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 3: There's only a handful. 274 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:27,639 Speaker 2: Of those guys on the defensive side of the ball, 275 00:11:28,039 --> 00:11:29,639 and he's one of those players. I mean, he's that 276 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:30,399 good of a player. 277 00:11:30,759 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 3: I don't think he would have been that guy on 278 00:11:32,759 --> 00:11:33,840 Thursday for Dallas. 279 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,559 Speaker 1: You know you said that obviously, the Green Bay odds, 280 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,720 you know, plummeted. Have you actually seen some money, some 281 00:11:40,759 --> 00:11:42,919 sharp money coming in the last twenty four hours or 282 00:11:42,919 --> 00:11:45,039 is it this is just more of a preventive move. 283 00:11:45,639 --> 00:11:48,639 Speaker 2: This trade is so big, he's such a big name, 284 00:11:48,799 --> 00:11:52,759 and there's so many betting markets nowadays that the only 285 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,200 thing you can realistically do when something like this happens 286 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,720 is just close everything and then just readjust everything. 287 00:11:59,039 --> 00:12:00,159 Speaker 3: And that's exactly what we did. 288 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: So there really wasn't any They didn't really take any 289 00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:05,600 bets on it. It was just like, Wow, Michael Parsons 290 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:09,639 got traded. Let's close it down. Let's reassess the one 291 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,399 thing we got. The one thing we did get nailed 292 00:12:11,399 --> 00:12:13,279 on right when we reopened everything was a guy that 293 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,679 Dallas step the worst record. 294 00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 1: In the league. 295 00:12:16,159 --> 00:12:17,679 Speaker 3: Wow, I thought that was interesting. 296 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,759 Speaker 2: Which we had adjusted We had lowered it down. This player, 297 00:12:20,799 --> 00:12:22,519 I guess felt we hadn't adjusted it enough. 298 00:12:25,399 --> 00:12:27,879 Speaker 4: The offense is too good that they will they will 299 00:12:27,879 --> 00:12:29,759 win enough games that they won't be the worst. 300 00:12:29,919 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: But you know, when you do have a new head, coach, 301 00:12:31,919 --> 00:12:35,759 new system, and you know, you just don't know. And 302 00:12:35,799 --> 00:12:38,320 that's the thing you And we'll talk about this more 303 00:12:38,399 --> 00:12:41,480 next segment about Okay, who's the real winner here? You know, 304 00:12:41,639 --> 00:12:44,679 is it Jerry Jones is the Cowboys or is it 305 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,200 you know, Green Bay and Micah Parsons and his agent 306 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,039 because Micah ended up getting more money than he had. 307 00:12:50,159 --> 00:12:52,360 We'll dive into all that stuff. But the thing is, 308 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,720 you just don't know. And Mike concern for green Bay. 309 00:12:54,799 --> 00:12:58,200 Here is the reason green Bay it was attractive for 310 00:12:58,279 --> 00:13:00,639 them because they don't have a lot of high price. Okay, 311 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,399 they don't have a lot of guys. Yeah, you signed 312 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,960 Jordan Love going back to last year, but you don't 313 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,799 have these other guys. So you've gotten the money to spend. 314 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,840 And the thing about it is, remember the Packers were 315 00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:13,200 the second youngest you know team I believe last year 316 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,799 in the NFL, and you know, they didn't bring in 317 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,879 a lot of you know, veterans. There's still a lot 318 00:13:18,919 --> 00:13:21,720 of question marks. And then for people to still think 319 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,279 that Jordan Love is this fantastic quarterback, we don't know that. 320 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,559 If you like, look at Jordan Love from a schematic standpoint, 321 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,120 an x's and oz' standpoint, this fundamental standpoint, he kind 322 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,639 of drives me nuts. And I've talked to you Jay Schrader, 323 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,360 other quarteryard, Steve Berlin, they said the exact same thing. 324 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,480 So it's just not me. It's like, no, this guy 325 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,879 fundamentally is not there. And you know, so those are 326 00:13:43,919 --> 00:13:46,279 the things you got to look at. There's no guarantee 327 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,320 that Green Bay is is going to go to the 328 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,279 super Bowl or deep in the playoffs just because they 329 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,720 have Michael Parsons. Because on the contrary, what Dallas has, 330 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,440 green Bay doesn't have that on the offensive side of 331 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:56,799 the ball. 332 00:13:57,399 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: No, they don't have the they don't have the great 333 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:03,000 skill position play and they don't. I like Jordan Love, 334 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,240 but I don't He's not a Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, 335 00:14:07,399 --> 00:14:10,759 Patrick Mahomes type quarterback where it almost doesn't even matter 336 00:14:10,759 --> 00:14:13,879 who's around them, they can just elevate the entire group. 337 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,200 Love I don't think. I don't think any of us 338 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,559 would put Love in that category. I do think he 339 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:21,480 needs more help than that, But we'll see. I think 340 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,399 there's gonna be a lot of hype around Green Bay. 341 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,639 Speaker 3: I know there is now, yeah, but that's a tough 342 00:14:25,679 --> 00:14:27,200 divisions there. 343 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 2: There's no guarantee that they even make the playoffs. 344 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: And improved I think so too. 345 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 3: I think Chicago's going to be improved. 346 00:14:34,159 --> 00:14:37,399 Speaker 2: There's something to be said for how do I put 347 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,960 this nicely, I'm not gonna put it nicely, when you 348 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,279 when you have a coach, when you have a coach 349 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,799 that bad, you almost can't help but get better when 350 00:14:45,799 --> 00:14:46,519 you replace him. 351 00:14:46,919 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 3: And I think that we've seen that over the. 352 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 2: Years with certain teams, certain coaches. I think we're gonna 353 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,519 find that was the case with Chicago. I think the 354 00:14:54,559 --> 00:14:57,679 guy was so in over his head. Just replacing him 355 00:14:57,679 --> 00:14:59,039 at all is going to be in a nice, nice 356 00:14:59,120 --> 00:14:59,799 upgrade for them. 357 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 1: College Football Week one, and how about the first game 358 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,879 on the docket at nine o'clock in the morning Pacific time, right? 359 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,519 I know what John's thinking, Like, why this game isn't 360 00:15:09,559 --> 00:15:12,279 later in the afternoon. It's like, here we go Texas 361 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,879 and Ohio State. The game's in Columbus and money is 362 00:15:15,919 --> 00:15:19,279 pouring in on the Texas Longhorns. This is almost flipped. 363 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,960 And I know that some properties even made Texas a 364 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,279 slight favorite earlier today Ohio State open minus three, and 365 00:15:27,399 --> 00:15:29,480 it sounds like you guys have been getting inundated with 366 00:15:29,559 --> 00:15:30,279 Longhorn money. 367 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,799 Speaker 2: Oh, there's no doubt. I mean, Texas a very public side, 368 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,600 but you know it's also it's also been a pretty 369 00:15:35,639 --> 00:15:36,360 sharp side. 370 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,559 Speaker 3: You know, some of our sharper groups are on Texas. 371 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:40,039 Speaker 1: Now. 372 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,519 Speaker 2: It's possible they're setting up the market to play back 373 00:15:42,559 --> 00:15:43,240 Ohio State. 374 00:15:43,879 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 3: I don't know that either way, but I. 375 00:15:46,399 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 2: Want to make sure it's Everyone keeps talking about everybody's 376 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,039 on Texas well. So there's a lot of smart groups 377 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,799 on Texas too. The number doesn't just go from where 378 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:55,879 it was to where it is now just because a 379 00:15:55,879 --> 00:15:58,200 bunch of public people are throwing Texas into parlays. 380 00:15:58,679 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 3: I there's some sharp players, the long ones too. 381 00:16:01,919 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 4: As you said with the possible buy back. People don't 382 00:16:05,519 --> 00:16:10,759 understand that the market can be manipulated early in the 383 00:16:10,799 --> 00:16:13,000 week to get the ball rolling, and then you get 384 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:16,279 all the steam chasers that jump on board. And especially 385 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,080 when you're dealing with these games where it's the small number, 386 00:16:19,759 --> 00:16:22,919 you can turn around they got in their pocket. They 387 00:16:23,039 --> 00:16:25,919 might have got Texas at plus two plus two and 388 00:16:25,919 --> 00:16:28,159 a half, and then you can turn around when this 389 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,720 market manipulated to Texas being a favorite, you come back 390 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,759 and you get Ohio State at plus plus money on 391 00:16:34,799 --> 00:16:35,720 the money line. 392 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 3: And probably had a bigger limit. 393 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:37,159 Speaker 1: Yeah. 394 00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 2: You know, a lot of the sportsbooks raise their limits 395 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,679 as they get closer to game day, so they might 396 00:16:41,759 --> 00:16:44,159 be vetting the number to where they to where they 397 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,200 want it coming back over the top. 398 00:16:46,279 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 3: I don't know if that's what they're doing. 399 00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just saying that that's always a possibility. 400 00:16:50,759 --> 00:16:51,559 Speaker 3: It's something we do. 401 00:16:51,639 --> 00:16:51,879 Speaker 1: See. 402 00:16:52,279 --> 00:16:54,159 Speaker 2: We were actually just talking about a game back there 403 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:58,360 before I came out here between Kentucky and Toledo where 404 00:16:58,399 --> 00:17:01,480 a lot of sharp guys had bet Toledo down, and 405 00:17:01,519 --> 00:17:04,119 then we had a steam on Kentucky. The last twenty 406 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,880 four hours, we're thinking maybe they're setting it up to 407 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,480 come back on Toledo, but you know it's a cat 408 00:17:09,519 --> 00:17:10,720 and mouse game. 409 00:17:10,759 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 3: We don't really, we don't know that for sure. 410 00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 4: This is you know, you see the same thing with 411 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,880 the manipulation of the market in horse racing that with 412 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:27,319 the caaw's computer assisted way during its bill. 413 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,759 Speaker 3: That's true. There's definitely there's definitely a big thing in. 414 00:17:30,759 --> 00:17:34,279 Speaker 2: Football, and I think it's because you have these games 415 00:17:34,319 --> 00:17:36,880 they can land near those numbers. It does happen where 416 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,599 you can win both bets. And also, what I said earlier, 417 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,119 limits usually rise. 418 00:17:42,079 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 3: The amount of money you can get down on one. 419 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,559 Speaker 2: Of these college football games two weeks ago is nothing 420 00:17:47,559 --> 00:17:49,839 compared to what you can get down tonight and tomorrow. 421 00:17:50,079 --> 00:17:50,839 Speaker 3: And the betters know. 422 00:17:50,839 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: That current line right now here the super book is 423 00:17:54,400 --> 00:18:00,079 Ohio State minus one against Texas. Plenty of games ever 424 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,400 won in action pretty much this weekend, and then don't 425 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,000 forget now Sunday, we've got two games too. You got 426 00:18:05,039 --> 00:18:08,200 to Virginia Tech in South Carolina. South Carolina is a 427 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,119 top thirteen team. And then when I think this is 428 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,359 gonna attract a lot of action, John four point thirty 429 00:18:13,599 --> 00:18:16,400 Pacific time, Notre Dame in Miami. Oh we got the 430 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,960 battle the Catholic Zeros, the Convicts set back again. You know, 431 00:18:20,079 --> 00:18:22,680 that's a huge game, two top ten teams squaring off. 432 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,599 Speaker 3: We got Alis Clemson tomorrow night too. 433 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: That's another one, right, this is an. 434 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,799 Speaker 2: Incredible college football we Again, I think Notre Dame in 435 00:18:27,839 --> 00:18:31,480 Miami it could end up being it probably will end 436 00:18:31,559 --> 00:18:34,279 up being the most bet game of the weekend. Because 437 00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:36,599 of the time slot of the Texas game, You're gonna 438 00:18:36,599 --> 00:18:40,440 have so many parlays all day really today and of 439 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,720 course tomorrow going to that game. The same way you 440 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,599 see on a Sunday night football game during NFL where 441 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:49,480 all the parlays crash into this last game. I think 442 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,480 that's how the Notre Dame Miami game is gonna beat tomorrow. 443 00:18:51,839 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 3: And we're planning the way we're. 444 00:18:53,039 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 2: Booking Texas Ohio State at minus one o five, We're 445 00:18:55,759 --> 00:18:57,440 gonna book Notre Dame in Miami at minus one o 446 00:18:57,559 --> 00:18:59,960 five on the day of the game Sunday. So yeah, 447 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,279 I think that'll be the most that game we have 448 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,960 all week, even though we've seen some sharp players take 449 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,640 Miami plus three. We're keeping the number there for now 450 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,279 because we know how much Parley action is going to 451 00:19:09,319 --> 00:19:09,880 go to Notre Dame. 452 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,759 Speaker 1: All right, talk about quick the other games that are 453 00:19:12,759 --> 00:19:15,319 seeing some action here on the college side for this weekend. 454 00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 2: LSU Clemson's the big game tomorrow night. That game's definitely 455 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,720 seeing money both ways. So we were at three, we 456 00:19:21,759 --> 00:19:23,480 got up to four. There's been some money at plus 457 00:19:23,599 --> 00:19:27,119 four on LSU. That's a good one for sure. Then 458 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:32,000 I mentioned Toledo Kentucky. How about the game tonight Auburn Baylor. 459 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:34,440 A lot of people on Baylor in that game. We 460 00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,920 need Auburn pretty big right now. And that looks like 461 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,480 the best of the Friday slate, and right now it's 462 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:40,559 our biggest decision of the night. 463 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,200 Speaker 4: I'm rooting for you tonight. 464 00:19:42,319 --> 00:19:43,599 Speaker 1: I hope you win it. 465 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 3: I feel like you're always rooting for us. You would 466 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,160 never root against the super. 467 00:19:48,839 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 1: Book, Marco, What is your reason for getting on the Tigers? 468 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,559 Speaker 4: For what I like to do first week of the season, 469 00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:58,839 and you know my style of handicapping, I got it. 470 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:00,880 I like to see the team first week. 471 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:01,839 Speaker 1: You know, we don't. 472 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,319 Speaker 4: We can read all the hype, we can guess what 473 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:06,880 these teams are going to look like. We don't know 474 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,039 do we get there? But what I do like to 475 00:20:09,079 --> 00:20:11,680 do is I like to go against the noise. And 476 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,880 I have not talked to a single person that does 477 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,880 not like Baylor coming into this season. And it's just. 478 00:20:19,039 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: Understanding the reasons too. I mean from a coaching standpoint 479 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,279 and the personnel standpoint, Baylor makes sense. You know, off they. 480 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 4: Won six they won six of their last seven games 481 00:20:28,839 --> 00:20:31,799 last year. So everybody's you know, looking at that momentum 482 00:20:31,799 --> 00:20:34,039 with it. I'm just still looking at it. This is 483 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,440 SEC versus Big twelve. 484 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, but Auburn's not your quality SEC if we're going 485 00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,279 by you know, last year and again you know, coaching 486 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,680 changes and that sort of thing. I'm not on the game. Again, 487 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,799 I haven't made any wagers yet, but again I can 488 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,480 see that. But again, yes, huge games. Miami, Notre Dame, 489 00:20:52,519 --> 00:20:55,440 like I said, Clemson, l s U, Ohio State, Texas. 490 00:20:55,799 --> 00:20:56,839 What a week one. 491 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 2: Forest Alabama, Florida. A lot of Florida is like the 492 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,359 forgotten football. 493 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:03,319 Speaker 1: Program and they're getting fourteen. 494 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, just remember two years ago Florida State 495 00:21:06,079 --> 00:21:06,720 went undefeated. 496 00:21:06,799 --> 00:21:08,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, they went did to go to the whole. 497 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 2: Season, they won their conference, didn't make the College Football Playoff, 498 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,400 and then I don't know what happened last year, but 499 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:14,519 they are still Florida State. 500 00:21:14,759 --> 00:21:17,519 Speaker 1: You got it all right, John, appreciate the time.
