1 00:00:03,799 --> 00:00:06,040 Speaker 1: All right, welcome in everyone, It is time for full 2 00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:08,279 court press. Sorry we're a minute or two late. We're 3 00:00:08,279 --> 00:00:11,439 fixing some audio issues behind the scenes, but I believe 4 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,320 we've got it all set now and we have a 5 00:00:15,439 --> 00:00:17,760 very very small slate to talk about today. So we 6 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:19,960 are going to do what we did last week on Monday, 7 00:00:20,199 --> 00:00:22,719 and we're going to go to Tuesday to kick off 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,320 the show with pretty much the one game that's got 9 00:00:26,359 --> 00:00:29,000 a line up for it now and it is easily 10 00:00:29,079 --> 00:00:32,039 the biggest game of the night on Tuesday's slate. So 11 00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:36,280 welcome and my co host Rob Vino. Rob Big, big 12 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,399 game for the Tennessee Valls Thompson Bowling Arena Tuesday night. 13 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,280 Feels like when they kind of have to have. They've 14 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:48,119 got Louisville coming to town slight fit Louisville minus one 15 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:52,759 and a half to open. How do you see this one, Louisville, Tennessee, 16 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:53,880 big game for the balls. 17 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,479 Speaker 2: Well this what the Volves have to be happy to 18 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,039 be back home for starters in five games either on 19 00:01:02,079 --> 00:01:06,519 the road, true road or neutrals. I don't know how 20 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,079 close you want to call Bridgestone to being a neutral. 21 00:01:09,159 --> 00:01:12,480 Knoxville and Nashville really that close, But I guess the 22 00:01:12,519 --> 00:01:16,959 Illinois game would have favored Tennessee for travelers. But Tennessee, 23 00:01:17,239 --> 00:01:18,760 like I said, haven't been home in a long time. 24 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,920 The other side hasn't been on the road other than 25 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,959 against Arkansas, and they didn't win that game. Arkansas beat 26 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,200 Louisville eighty nine to eighty. You know, fundamentally out of it. Well, 27 00:01:30,239 --> 00:01:33,079 let's let's just start with situationally. I do think Tennessee 28 00:01:33,599 --> 00:01:36,439 the hunger your team at home, slight home dog. I 29 00:01:36,439 --> 00:01:38,680 think if you were just going to add up situational angles, 30 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,280 you would come toward Tennessee. Then when you get to 31 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,680 the matchups on the floor and you realize it's, you know, 32 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,079 a severe contrast in styles here. We've talked about about 33 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:55,120 Pat Kelsey before his career is the same. He's gonna run, 34 00:01:55,439 --> 00:02:01,840 They're gonna shoot threes. Louisville of their point production comes 35 00:02:01,879 --> 00:02:04,799 from beyond the arc. That's number ten in the country, 36 00:02:04,879 --> 00:02:08,080 the tenth most. Tennessee's gonna have to prevent that from 37 00:02:08,159 --> 00:02:11,840 happening here. But Tennessee likes to go slow and they're 38 00:02:11,879 --> 00:02:14,719 a huge offensive rebounding teams, So Louisville's gonna have to 39 00:02:14,719 --> 00:02:16,960 stop that Tennessee is number one in the nation not 40 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,319 only in offensive rebounding, but in second chance points and 41 00:02:20,479 --> 00:02:24,520 second chance points. On the defensive side of this, Louisville 42 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,360 ranks number two thirty two in second chance points allowed. 43 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,520 So you got big edge for Louisville as far as 44 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,080 three point shooting is concerned, you got the big edge 45 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,199 for Tennessee as far as the glass is concerned. On 46 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,080 their offensive end, Tennessee hasn't taken a taking care of 47 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,400 the ball. Well, I'll tell you what for me, I'm 48 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,159 just gonna single out one player here, point guard Tennessee 49 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,599 Jacoby Gillespie, started his career in Bellmont, went to Maryland. 50 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,560 When he's right in games that I've seen, take the 51 00:02:54,599 --> 00:02:58,919 Houston game four instance where Tennessee beat Houston. Tennessee is 52 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:03,439 a really good but Gillespie has a tendency to go 53 00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:06,599 cold from beyond the arc, not make a lot of 54 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,719 clutch shots that they've been loose with the basketball here, 55 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,039 and that type of stuff can't happen against Louisville otherwise 56 00:03:13,039 --> 00:03:16,360 they're going to find themselves in a bad position. I 57 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,719 think the combination of Gillespie and Ament, who's been really 58 00:03:19,759 --> 00:03:24,719 good for Tennessee on across the front line. They showed 59 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,879 they can beat the best of the best, but recently 60 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,879 it just hasn't been good. And for Louisville, I sort 61 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:35,120 of questioned their schedule a little bit. They they've played 62 00:03:35,199 --> 00:03:40,120 kind of not great teams, but really good teams across 63 00:03:40,159 --> 00:03:43,039 the board. Here. I think Arkansas may have moved themselves 64 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,199 up a notch over the course of this last weekend. 65 00:03:46,199 --> 00:03:49,400 But for me, I'd rather lean to the home team here. Adam, 66 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,960 you know, Louisville has a lot of three point shooters 67 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:56,159 and you're gonna have to protect the arc. But if 68 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,759 Tennessee doesn't allow this to get up tempo, probably in 69 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,479 really good shape at home. For those who don't know, 70 00:04:03,479 --> 00:04:06,319 and you've probably been in this arena, I haven't, but 71 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:11,159 it's one of like the ten largest arenas in college basketball. 72 00:04:11,199 --> 00:04:14,960 So it's gonna be noisy for Louisville. It's gonna be 73 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:20,160 a super test against against them, specifically offensively, because if 74 00:04:20,199 --> 00:04:22,319 they don't play offense, Adam, I don't know that they 75 00:04:22,439 --> 00:04:26,759 win this game. So I'm gonna lean Tennessee here. On 76 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,480 the situational, I'm gonna lean Tennessee here, even though they 77 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,399 haven't put up the kind of numbers were used to 78 00:04:31,439 --> 00:04:35,120 Rick Barnes teams putting up. So far, their schedule the 79 00:04:35,199 --> 00:04:38,199 last four games has been pretty intense and it's gonna 80 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,600 continue to be intense. Only difference is this time they 81 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,480 get it at home. Yeah. 82 00:04:43,519 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 1: I h the only time I've ever been inside Thompson 83 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:46,920 Bowling Arena. 84 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,879 Speaker 3: I was in Knoxville for a football game. 85 00:04:48,959 --> 00:04:52,079 Speaker 1: Had a buddy that went to Tennessee Oregon was in 86 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,399 town and they were like top five. 87 00:04:53,439 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 3: This has got to be like fifteen years ago. 88 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,879 Speaker 1: They It was a huge rainstorm, lightning, the game got delayed. 89 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,120 Everyone had to evacuate the arena, so we were like 90 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,399 looking for shelter. We went into tops and Bowling Arena. 91 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,160 We run into Tobias Harris, who's who's there at this time? 92 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,800 And one of my I was with guys that played 93 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,120 against him in like the New York State final and 94 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,399 won because he's from New York and so we were 95 00:05:18,439 --> 00:05:20,279 like they were like, yo, we're from CBA, and he 96 00:05:20,399 --> 00:05:23,000 just goes, yo, fuck CVA and then walked away. That's 97 00:05:23,079 --> 00:05:26,439 my Tobias Harris story. That's my Thompson Bowling Arena story. 98 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,120 It is massive, like we you know, obviously there was 99 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,120 no game, but we got to you know, got to 100 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,079 hang out in there. But that is the one time 101 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:35,680 I've been in there. I will get back for a 102 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,000 basketball game at some point. 103 00:05:37,079 --> 00:05:37,319 Speaker 2: Rob. 104 00:05:37,879 --> 00:05:39,879 Speaker 1: I did get to see Tennessee play in person the 105 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,079 other day they were up here in Syracuse. I felt 106 00:05:43,079 --> 00:05:46,040 like Syracuse did a tremendous job defending Galepsie and and 107 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,319 really took Tennessee out of what they wanted to do. 108 00:05:48,439 --> 00:05:51,560 Obviously pulled the upset in that game. The one thing 109 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,079 I'll say is though, and this is this is my 110 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,240 so I kind of have concerns for both sides in 111 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:56,680 this game. 112 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 3: My concern with Tennessee. 113 00:05:58,759 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: You talked about gelepsy being right, Okay, he really hasn't 114 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:04,560 been against good competition. 115 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:05,800 Speaker 3: That that's my concern. 116 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: And you know, the one game that Tennessee can sort 117 00:06:08,519 --> 00:06:12,000 of hang their hat on right now is the Houston game. 118 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,519 But you gotta really look at like situationally, like what 119 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,839 that Vegas tournament was, so like that Tennessee Houston game, 120 00:06:19,879 --> 00:06:21,759 I believe came on the heels of Houston going to 121 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,680 overtime with Syracuse, very grueling game for them. Tennessee got 122 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,439 to run Rutgers out by thirty the day before, so 123 00:06:28,639 --> 00:06:32,000 like and I also think Tennessee and Houston are very similar, 124 00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:33,800 like the way they want to play, so I thought 125 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,079 it was a good matchup for them. But like outs, 126 00:06:36,199 --> 00:06:40,519 Gilepsi's good game, Gelepsi's good games are Northern Kentucky, North Florida, Rice, 127 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:45,360 Tennessee State, and Rutgers. What really hasn't been you know, 128 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,839 didn't play great against Mercer, who I actually kind of 129 00:06:47,879 --> 00:06:50,600 liked that Mercer team this year for for what conference 130 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,800 they're in. And then you know Illinois, Syracuse, KU, Kansas, 131 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,040 and Houston not I guess the Houston game he had 132 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,040 twenty two points, still went five or sixteen from the field, 133 00:07:01,519 --> 00:07:03,560 like six for twenty against Illinois. 134 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:04,439 Speaker 3: That's not very good. 135 00:07:04,879 --> 00:07:08,199 Speaker 1: Five for twelve against Syracuse, five for nineteen against Kansas. 136 00:07:08,199 --> 00:07:11,600 And then you talk about a man again, he's another 137 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:17,959 one where couldn't do anything against QS. You know, nine 138 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,759 points on one for eight shooting against Houston, did nothing 139 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,360 in the Illinois game like that is that is kind 140 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,720 of my concern for Tennessee is that they don't have 141 00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:31,480 enough scoring to beat some of these better teams that 142 00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:34,560 they're playing now. My concern for the Louisville side is 143 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,120 something that you mentioned. They shoot a lot of threes, 144 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,920 and you know you talk about I was on Arkansas 145 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,519 in the game that they went to Arkansas. That game 146 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,040 was actually that finals closer than it was. I felt 147 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,480 like Arkansas just had them. I never was even like 148 00:07:49,519 --> 00:07:52,079 remotely concerned that Arkansas wasn't going to win that game. 149 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,519 It was like clear from the outset that they just 150 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,319 weren't going to be able to go there bombs away 151 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,279 from three and beat that team, you know, amazing the 152 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:04,920 other So if you look at like when they've gone 153 00:08:04,959 --> 00:08:08,319 on the road this year, you know that Cincinnati game 154 00:08:08,399 --> 00:08:11,720 wasn't necessarily easy for Louisville and they ended up pulling 155 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,839 it out by ten, but it wasn't really like an 156 00:08:13,879 --> 00:08:17,480 easy game. I felt like Cincinnati sort of played them 157 00:08:17,519 --> 00:08:20,279 pretty good, and that Cincinnati team is not very good, 158 00:08:20,319 --> 00:08:23,160 like they've they've shown us that to this point. So 159 00:08:23,279 --> 00:08:26,399 it's like last two games for Louisville, they were able 160 00:08:26,439 --> 00:08:28,360 to sort of do what they wanted from three. They 161 00:08:28,399 --> 00:08:32,879 crush Memphis, they beat Indiana, but like Tennessee will give them, 162 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,960 it's not just going to be easy to get off 163 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,799 clean looks from three against Tennessee. That's the one thing 164 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,399 about Tennessee, very very good defensive team. They're going to 165 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:46,000 force Louisville into tough shots. Would that put like? As 166 00:08:46,039 --> 00:08:47,960 I talk about it, I kind of am making a 167 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,000 case for the under here. I feel like, I don't 168 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,159 know if I could pick a side, but I certainly 169 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,440 think scoring could be a little bit tougher in this game. 170 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:00,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me. And I think the reason why, 171 00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,120 the reason why I wanted to put this whole game 172 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:07,600 for the Tennessee side on Jacoby Gillespie is because last year, 173 00:09:07,639 --> 00:09:10,600 when you had Ziggler and those guys, you knew the 174 00:09:10,639 --> 00:09:14,759 backcourt was steady for Tennessee. It just doesn't seem and 175 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,480 it is a great divide, right. You mentioned the first 176 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,799 five games of the year where they were playing lousy 177 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,759 competition and it looked great, and then these last five 178 00:09:22,799 --> 00:09:25,320 games that we've all paid attention to from Thanksgiving on 179 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:29,320 because their higher profile games, you see that this could 180 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,879 be a problem. He was not great at Maryland last year. 181 00:09:32,919 --> 00:09:35,960 It's almost like he was a star at Belmont, stepped 182 00:09:36,039 --> 00:09:41,279 up in class, hasn't been an elite point guard. I 183 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,480 think ze Guy Ziggler wasn't e leite point guard. So 184 00:09:43,799 --> 00:09:46,399 for Tennessee, they're gonna have to get something there. Felix 185 00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:50,200 Akpara just an animal on the boards. That's where they 186 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,799 might be able to make a lot of their a 187 00:09:53,799 --> 00:09:56,679 lot of their separation or whatever. If they get a 188 00:09:56,759 --> 00:09:59,279 lead in this game. It's gonna be tough for Louisville 189 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,559 on that end. But it is a difficult game, Adam. 190 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,000 I think that, you know, the situationals might add up 191 00:10:05,039 --> 00:10:08,240 to Tennessee, but boil boy, if Louisville does hit a 192 00:10:08,279 --> 00:10:10,919 few threas, it's going to be because Tennessee doesn't really 193 00:10:10,919 --> 00:10:14,000 shoot three pointers that well. You can't trade threes for 194 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,960 twos and Louisville can get to the free throw line, 195 00:10:17,039 --> 00:10:19,120 and the point spread is going to be in that 196 00:10:19,159 --> 00:10:22,960 one point area. For a reason, it's a difficult game 197 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,960 to call him. Maybe the under what are we looking 198 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,519 at here? Anyway, we were looking at uh as far 199 00:10:27,519 --> 00:10:30,399 as the total might be concerned, looks like. 200 00:10:30,399 --> 00:10:34,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, so we have this, so we have a one 201 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,039 fifty seven and a half at DK. 202 00:10:36,919 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 3: They also have Louisville minus one and a half. 203 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:42,799 Speaker 1: Right now, I felt like the spreads Yeah, the total 204 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:43,679 definitely sounds high. 205 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 3: I felt like the spread was fair. 206 00:10:45,039 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 1: I made it like one point seven five, so pretty 207 00:10:47,759 --> 00:10:51,360 much right in line with my number. But it felt 208 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,480 high to me because I really think Tennessee's got to 209 00:10:54,519 --> 00:10:56,799 clamp down defensively if they want to have any shot 210 00:10:56,799 --> 00:11:00,080 at winning this game, and you have to, they have 211 00:10:59,919 --> 00:11:02,720 to force Louisville in the tough threes. And if they 212 00:11:02,759 --> 00:11:05,279 do that, though, Louisville's offense can run a little stagnant. 213 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,200 So again, that would be that that's the best thing 214 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,600 I see for this game. And this, of course is 215 00:11:11,639 --> 00:11:14,120 a Tuesday game. But yeah, one fifty seven and a half. 216 00:11:14,919 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that that's that's a key point too, that you 217 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,159 know I should have played when I talk about styles. 218 00:11:19,159 --> 00:11:23,559 In contrast, Tennessee will slow them down in their home arena. 219 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,039 I mean, Louisville is not going to be able to 220 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,679 run play ninety four foot basketball this entire game like 221 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,440 they want to. So one fifty seven and a half 222 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,960 for the time being, and we'll move on. I think 223 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,159 I would lean towards that under one fifty seven and 224 00:11:35,159 --> 00:11:35,559 a half. 225 00:11:37,039 --> 00:11:41,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, CBA Albany over half Hollow Hills West in the 226 00:11:42,039 --> 00:11:45,960 twenty ten New York State Class Double A championship game 227 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,320 and I didn't. I didn't go to CBA Albany, but 228 00:11:48,399 --> 00:11:50,519 my friends did. And I was just trying to say, 229 00:11:50,519 --> 00:11:52,600 what's up to Tobias Harris. I was like a fan. 230 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,960 He was just basically like, yeah, you know, we're all set. 231 00:11:55,279 --> 00:11:56,000 I don't want to talk. 232 00:11:56,039 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: Can I ask real quick if is CBA the Christian 233 00:11:59,279 --> 00:12:00,000 Brothers Academy. 234 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a couple of them. So there's the one 235 00:12:03,759 --> 00:12:05,639 my friends went to was the the Albany one. There's 236 00:12:05,639 --> 00:12:08,919 a CBA Syracuse. Great rob This is a great transition, 237 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:13,480 great transition right here because CBA Syracuse and Syracuse legend 238 00:12:13,519 --> 00:12:17,320 Greg Paulis is on the card today and he is 239 00:12:17,399 --> 00:12:18,879 out in Virginia. 240 00:12:20,279 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 3: And I gotta say, like, I think Greg. 241 00:12:22,279 --> 00:12:25,559 Speaker 1: Paulis is an awesome coach, and he just does not 242 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,639 have a Division one roster this year. This has been 243 00:12:27,639 --> 00:12:29,759 an issue since he's got there. If you are not 244 00:12:29,879 --> 00:12:34,360 familiar with where Lewiston, New York is, probably the toughest 245 00:12:34,399 --> 00:12:37,000 place to recruit to in the country. I can't understand. 246 00:12:37,039 --> 00:12:40,120 I don't know why anyone, why anyone would want to 247 00:12:40,159 --> 00:12:43,080 live in Niagara Falls, New York. Sorry, It's just like 248 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,039 there's three hundred and sixty five Division one college basketball schools, 249 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,679 and three hundred and sixty of them are probably in 250 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:52,759 a more favorable location than Niagara. The reason I bring 251 00:12:52,799 --> 00:12:55,519 that up, Rob is he's managed to find these like 252 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,480 Needle and the Haystack type players that go unnoticed, and 253 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,240 he always seems to do more with less. That's what 254 00:13:01,279 --> 00:13:04,000 I said about Paulas since he got there, he does 255 00:13:04,039 --> 00:13:07,279 more with less. This year just doesn't have much talent 256 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,120 on the roster. I think this will probably be the 257 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:12,720 worst team he's had at Niagara. 258 00:13:12,759 --> 00:13:16,399 Speaker 3: Now, do you want to lay thirty? I don't know. VC. 259 00:13:16,519 --> 00:13:18,279 You might be a little upset about that lost to 260 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:18,919 New Mexico. 261 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: So I'll answer whatever you were gonna ask about CBA already. 262 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,159 But I felt like a great point to transition to 263 00:13:26,759 --> 00:13:29,840 CBA legend, Greg Paulus and Niagara in our next game. 264 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:35,039 Speaker 2: You actually transition into a couple of things that get 265 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:40,200 into get a little personal with me. CBA Syracuse is 266 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,080 the one my brother in law went to. That's why 267 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,039 I asked him it was Christian Brothers Academy, not all 268 00:13:44,159 --> 00:13:48,159 me and Niagara. Who would want to go to Niagara well, 269 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,440 it just so happens, and I'll probably outdate every single 270 00:13:51,519 --> 00:13:56,240 person watching us here. But obviously Niagara famous for Calvin 271 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,919 Murphy in the late sixties who finished second to Pete 272 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,440 Maravich in the scoring title great NBA player, Houston Rockets broadcaster. 273 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,159 Younger people probably know him more as a Houston Rockets 274 00:14:07,159 --> 00:14:10,679 announcement anything else. From my hometown in Norwalk, Connecticut. So 275 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,279 that's one of our claims to fame back in Fairfield 276 00:14:14,279 --> 00:14:17,120 County is Calvin Murphy, who actually came to our high 277 00:14:17,159 --> 00:14:21,559 school one time and with his Rockets, you know, warm 278 00:14:21,639 --> 00:14:25,240 ups on and played a game against a set of teachers. 279 00:14:25,279 --> 00:14:29,879 But let's get back to this real quick. Obviously, again 280 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,480 contrast in styles, right, I mean, Paul is his team. 281 00:14:32,639 --> 00:14:35,120 They have no choice but to play the way that 282 00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,240 they do, which is crawl, try and make it a 283 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,440 high fifties, low sixties game and see if we can 284 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,080 pull something out, maybe have a hot shooting night, et cetera. 285 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,519 It could work in conference a couple of times this year. 286 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:50,600 It probably doesn't work against VCU and Phil Martelli who's 287 00:14:50,639 --> 00:14:55,440 still trying to establish something here. Obviously, Greyhound style pace. 288 00:14:55,559 --> 00:14:58,159 They did lose to New Mexico, So there's some coaching, 289 00:14:58,519 --> 00:15:02,080 some teaching moments he can have and practice. Yere, I 290 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,759 would think that at the outset of this game, it 291 00:15:05,879 --> 00:15:09,639 might be a little much for Niagara to handle. First 292 00:15:09,639 --> 00:15:13,120 half line here, bet up from seventeen to eighteen and 293 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,279 a half. Could you see DCU, you know, forty three 294 00:15:16,399 --> 00:15:20,600 twenty four at halftime? Yeah, it's it's plausible for sure. 295 00:15:21,759 --> 00:15:23,840 Could you see the game getting over sixty seven and 296 00:15:23,879 --> 00:15:26,799 a half in the first half. VCU is going to 297 00:15:26,879 --> 00:15:29,519 do the bulk of the scoring. I can't lay this 298 00:15:29,639 --> 00:15:31,480 number at him because I just don't do it on 299 00:15:31,519 --> 00:15:33,440 a regular basis just a thing of mine that I 300 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:38,639 won't lay this many points because if VCU doesn't take 301 00:15:38,679 --> 00:15:41,440 the last eight minutes of the game. Seriously, sometimes you 302 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,639 can't hold that margin or create that margin, So tough 303 00:15:44,679 --> 00:15:46,360 to lay it. If you're going to lay it, the 304 00:15:46,399 --> 00:15:49,720 recommendation would be first half when they probably come out 305 00:15:49,759 --> 00:15:54,440 of the gates firing and Niagara going to be unable 306 00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,440 to play their slow pace for the majority of the 307 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,279 game in this gym. Yeah, difficult game for me just 308 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,559 because I don't deal in numbers this big. But if 309 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,399 I was gonna recommend something. It would be VCU first half. 310 00:16:06,639 --> 00:16:09,240 And I think the loss to New Mexico probably does 311 00:16:09,559 --> 00:16:11,919 add little fuel to the fire. If they beat New Mexico, 312 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,159 maybe we would be on nag or here taking the bunch. 313 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:17,919 Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you right now. I mean where this 314 00:16:18,039 --> 00:16:21,960 open and where it is now you're looking at. I 315 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,159 mean it's up to thirty two and a half open 316 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,200 At twenty nine and a half, my number was more 317 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,440 in line with the open. Like that's not enough value 318 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,559 for me to want to like take the thirty two 319 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,080 and a half. But I will what I will say 320 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,039 about Paulus, Like I remember him coming into the to 321 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,720 the dome and like hanging around and covering a number 322 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,960 a couple of years ago, Like he he doesn't he's 323 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,559 not gonna let his team quit now. Like you know, 324 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,240 I was at a I think that I was at 325 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,000 a Niagara Saint Bonaventer game. 326 00:16:49,039 --> 00:16:49,799 Speaker 3: At Niagara. 327 00:16:49,799 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: They were all like it was a sellout because they 328 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,240 don't get to host the bombies very often. It's a 329 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,360 couple of years back when when Saint Bonaventu was really 330 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,960 good and Saint Bonaventu destroyed them, and like I sat 331 00:17:01,039 --> 00:17:03,679 right behind the Niagara bench and he he was still 332 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,160 just he coached all forty minutes and it was like, 333 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,200 you know, those are the types of things where you're 334 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:12,119 talking about catching thirty thirty one, thirty two points, like 335 00:17:12,319 --> 00:17:16,400 knowing that they're not gonna quit on him. Is I 336 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,079 guess something you want to know when you're talking about 337 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,960 a thirty two point dog. But to me, this year, 338 00:17:21,279 --> 00:17:24,960 this year, this Niagara team is just so like not 339 00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:28,720 Division one caliber really some of their law I mean 340 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,200 you talk about like teams that they've played in Division 341 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:37,119 one this year, like lost to Lemoyne, lost to Howard, 342 00:17:37,799 --> 00:17:40,839 lost to Morgan State over the weekend. I mean, those 343 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,799 are those are teams that most MAC schools are going 344 00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:45,119 to win those types of games. 345 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 3: Lost lost to Detroit at home. 346 00:17:47,279 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I like that Detroit team, But still I 347 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,599 think Niagara is a slight favorite there. And then in 348 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:57,319 Mac play, just destroyed by Sianna, destroyed by Saint Peter's 349 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,359 eighty three fifty four and seventy one forty three in 350 00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,359 games that they were fine playing slower. 351 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,279 Speaker 3: That's the other thing. It's like if those teams. 352 00:18:06,039 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: Are running you out like that and VCU decides that 353 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,480 they're a little pissed off from the New Mexico results. 354 00:18:12,599 --> 00:18:15,480 That's tough, man, I slick Vick says, I could see 355 00:18:15,559 --> 00:18:17,119 VCU up twenty two at halftime. 356 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,000 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what. Maybe you go with Rob's VCU. 357 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 1: First half angle for like a half unit and if 358 00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:24,440 it doesn't get there, come over with the full unit 359 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,960 on the second half, because I think VCU will run out. 360 00:18:28,279 --> 00:18:30,960 They're gonna dominate one half of this game. I just 361 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:37,279 don't know which one it is. All right, let's continue through. 362 00:18:37,319 --> 00:18:39,960 We'll probably get to all of them. But I will 363 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,039 go off of like what people are talking about in 364 00:18:42,039 --> 00:18:45,359 the comments. But yeah, we probably will get to not 365 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,200 many games today, but this might be the smallest slate 366 00:18:48,279 --> 00:18:50,960 so far of the year, but one people seem to 367 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:55,480 be talking about, which is interesting. And also, I'm guessing 368 00:18:55,519 --> 00:18:58,880 someone is out. Wafford's going to go to Gardner Web, 369 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:03,440 and I have a feeling this move to Wafford means 370 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,240 someone is out for Gardner Web. The other reason I 371 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,480 said say that is someone I know that that BET's 372 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:15,319 primarily off of injury News played the I think over 373 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,400 in this one, So that's you know, that is a 374 00:19:20,039 --> 00:19:22,240 It's a sign to me that says someone out is 375 00:19:22,279 --> 00:19:24,839 probably out for Guarded Web. Now my question to you, 376 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,839 Rob is does any does Gardner Web have someone on 377 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:31,079 their roster that's worth three points? 378 00:19:30,759 --> 00:19:35,519 Speaker 3: My gut says no. And you know what, the last 379 00:19:35,559 --> 00:19:36,279 couple of times. 380 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:40,759 Speaker 1: They've played, they hung around with Georgia Southern and they 381 00:19:40,799 --> 00:19:42,759 beat a non board team. Now this is a Guarded 382 00:19:42,799 --> 00:19:48,039 Web team that lost to something called North Greenville, which 383 00:19:48,079 --> 00:19:51,680 is not a Division one team and also was blown 384 00:19:51,759 --> 00:19:55,400 out in every single game pretty much prior to that 385 00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,960 Georgia Southern game. There's no way I can lay eleven 386 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,079 and a half on the road with Wafford. But I 387 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:02,880 also don't know if I can. I don't know if 388 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,960 I have any desire to take those points either. So 389 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,759 anything for your hear Wafford Gardner. 390 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 2: Web, Yeah, you know what? For me, I think the 391 00:20:12,519 --> 00:20:15,599 look has to be toward the over in this game, 392 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,559 Gardner Web for what it's worth. And you see this 393 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:24,279 looks like a like a swack chart, a swack team chart. 394 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:28,200 When you pull up Gardner Web, Run Run, Run, can't 395 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,039 make a shot right, You're gonna get plenty of possessions here, 396 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,359 But does anything go in the hoop where Gardner Web 397 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,799 is concerned. The scores have been, you know, relatively high, 398 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,119 the final scores, so obviously there's enough chances in a 399 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:48,440 game despite their lousy shooting, to get games up and 400 00:20:48,519 --> 00:20:52,279 over the total. Here we're looking at a number I 401 00:20:52,279 --> 00:20:54,720 don't know. The vicinity here is kind of tough, at 402 00:20:54,759 --> 00:20:56,759 one fifty six and a half. Like you say, it's 403 00:20:56,759 --> 00:20:59,400 been bet up about a point and a half. Not 404 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,200 really sure you know what the best bet. As I'm 405 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,319 going through numbers here real quick out and to see 406 00:21:04,319 --> 00:21:06,759 where we are with currents, I think that the play 407 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,519 might be to go to the Wafford team total. To 408 00:21:10,559 --> 00:21:14,319 answer your question, is there anybody on Gardner webworth three points? No, 409 00:21:16,279 --> 00:21:21,480 those types of moves are reserved for you know, power 410 00:21:21,519 --> 00:21:26,119 conference teams, sometimes a little more than three, but basically 411 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,039 not reserved for mid majors unless there's an elite superstar down. 412 00:21:30,079 --> 00:21:33,000 And this is probably a low major. But eighty two 413 00:21:33,039 --> 00:21:35,920 and a half looks low to me for the Wafford side. Obviously, 414 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:37,799 Gardner Web's gonna run and they give it up. They don't. 415 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,720 Not only don't they shoot, but they don't play much 416 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,799 defense either. Points allowed in games against team they give 417 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,200 up one oh seven to Queens, which isn't necessarily a 418 00:21:48,279 --> 00:21:50,559 higher tempo team, but they are a team that shoots 419 00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:54,440 it pretty well. Georgia Southern eighty four there, I would 420 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,119 think eighty two and a half. I would isolate this 421 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,039 to just the team total. I don't want to depend 422 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:03,359 on new Web racing up and down the floor, missing 423 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,599 a shot or turning it over, et cetera, et cetera. 424 00:22:05,759 --> 00:22:09,559 So let the side go, Let the full game total go. 425 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,039 I would say Wafford over the over the number. 426 00:22:13,599 --> 00:22:14,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, I could see that. 427 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 1: You know, Wafford's an interesting case because they had the 428 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,799 whole thing with their coach, who I believe ended up 429 00:22:20,839 --> 00:22:24,319 getting fired like right before the season. But they're they're 430 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,279 still like a fair amount of talent on their roster. 431 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,519 So it's like I almost looked at Wafford as like 432 00:22:30,759 --> 00:22:33,039 undervalued coming into the year because I didn't really think 433 00:22:33,079 --> 00:22:36,079 the coach thing mattered all that much. I felt like 434 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,079 they still had like better players than they were maybe 435 00:22:39,079 --> 00:22:42,559 getting credit for. And I think for the most part, 436 00:22:42,599 --> 00:22:45,640 they you know, there's they're six and four. They they 437 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:50,039 come in with a nice win over in Milwaukee, kind 438 00:22:50,079 --> 00:22:52,079 of beat the teams that they were supposed to beat. Now, 439 00:22:52,559 --> 00:22:56,200 this is very interesting because I went to a Wafford 440 00:22:56,359 --> 00:23:00,720 Elon game two years ago down to Elon, and Wafford 441 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,359 really struggled with the Elon zone in that game. 442 00:23:03,599 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 3: Now that was that was? It was last year. 443 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,039 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was last year because Matthew Van Coleman was 444 00:23:10,079 --> 00:23:12,799 still on the team. They really struggled with Elon zone. 445 00:23:13,039 --> 00:23:17,160 Interestingly enough, they got bombed by Elon last time out 446 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,480 too and scored fifty two points. And I have a 447 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:23,279 feeling it's because Elon just it's a bad matchup for them. 448 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,839 They extend their zone and I'm just gonna pull up 449 00:23:26,039 --> 00:23:29,079 the stats from that game real quick. Yeah, Wafford seven 450 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,039 for thirty two from three, and it's basically all they 451 00:23:32,039 --> 00:23:32,759 could could shoot. 452 00:23:32,839 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 3: It's all they they could shoot in that game. 453 00:23:34,519 --> 00:23:37,319 Speaker 1: They're a little undersized, so they got out rebounded by 454 00:23:37,319 --> 00:23:40,119 Elon big time. Couldn't make a shot. So I think 455 00:23:40,599 --> 00:23:45,400 that's a little deceiving. That's probably a bad matchup for Wafford. 456 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,119 Now a couple of years in a row, Garter Web's 457 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:51,240 not gonna be able to do that. Defensively, Gardner Web's 458 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,480 not gonna be with out rebound Wafford. Gardner Webb's one 459 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,039 of the worst rebounding teams in the country. So and 460 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,519 Garter Web turns it over a ton, which is gonna 461 00:23:59,559 --> 00:24:02,359 lead to runouts and what Wafford would want to do 462 00:24:02,559 --> 00:24:05,640 scoring wise. So I kind of think you're onto something there, 463 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,880 Watford team. You said team total over is what you like, Rob. 464 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 2: I would lean towards eighty two and a half going over. Yeah, 465 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,880 I'm just looking here at him. Last game, neither Jefferson, 466 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,039 Clark or Peterson played, but none of those guys factor 467 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:23,759 into primary minutes for the Gardner Web squad. So you 468 00:24:23,839 --> 00:24:26,440 got three reserves that were out last game. I don't 469 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,359 know if the reserves are injury enough to push the number, 470 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:34,599 but certainly, you know, seventy seven to sixty three over 471 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:40,400 Brevard Bravard. If we say the European way indicates that 472 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:42,680 they're a little bit depth shy, and if they're death shy, 473 00:24:42,759 --> 00:24:45,319 here more even more of a lean towards the over. 474 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say the over is what ticked 475 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,720 up in this one. I would very much agree with that. 476 00:24:50,799 --> 00:24:53,759 This feels like there's gonna be points. It feels like 477 00:24:53,759 --> 00:24:55,599 a get out of hand, and if it gets out 478 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,000 of hand, you'll you'll probably get help from Gardner Web too, 479 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:00,599 like if it ends up being like if it ends 480 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:03,240 up trending in the direction the market is trending in 481 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,359 where Wofford's up ten fifteen points, I could see this 482 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,759 one just like going off the rails a ton of 483 00:25:08,799 --> 00:25:10,519 second half points and you get and you get there 484 00:25:10,559 --> 00:25:13,240 either way. But I like your look at the Wafford team. 485 00:25:13,279 --> 00:25:15,519 What Watford's definitely gonna score here. So I think that 486 00:25:15,519 --> 00:25:19,720 that's a really good look. Okay, I'll give out I'll 487 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,319 give out a best bet. I'll give out my leg 488 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,720 of the parlay. Let's go you know what, Rob, since 489 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,359 we're since we're chasing a couple of units on the parlay. Now, 490 00:25:28,599 --> 00:25:30,519 let let's and it's a small slate. Let's go with 491 00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:32,640 a two teamer. Let's let's because there's only two of 492 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:34,880 us on the show, let's go two team. Or we'll 493 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:35,599 see if we can hit. 494 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 3: It's hard enough to hit a two team or we're 495 00:25:37,519 --> 00:25:40,200 trying to hit three teamers, so we'll try a two team. 496 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,759 Speaker 1: Or today, my leg of the parlay three percent play 497 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,799 for my clients is going to be Houston Christian They 498 00:25:46,799 --> 00:25:50,920 are at home playing McNee State I gave out plus fifteen, 499 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,160 uh and the reason I want to. So we'll call 500 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,519 this a little Adam trigger system play, if you will, 501 00:25:56,559 --> 00:26:01,359 because I'm going into this like I want to fade 502 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,599 McNeice when they go on the road in conference play 503 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:08,759 against teams that I think are capable. That we did 504 00:26:08,799 --> 00:26:10,559 this a couple of weeks ago. I actually gave it 505 00:26:10,599 --> 00:26:12,359 out on this show. They went on the road to 506 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:16,079 increnit Word and they lost that game outright as an 507 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,880 eleven point favorite, they lost to increnit Word. Now, the 508 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:23,400 teams that I have on my list here as potential 509 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,400 spots to do this, there's like eight of them. 510 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 3: So I have increnet Word, which has already happened. That 511 00:26:29,319 --> 00:26:31,480 was a win. It's only come out up one time 512 00:26:31,519 --> 00:26:31,839 so far. 513 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,799 Speaker 1: So it's one to zero Steven f Austin, ut Rio, 514 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,920 Grand Valley, Houston, Christian New Orleans, Southeast Louisiana, Lamar and 515 00:26:40,039 --> 00:26:42,799 Nichols Nickels State or I guess we're just calling it 516 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,559 Nichols now. But either way, I think those eight teams 517 00:26:46,599 --> 00:26:49,359 are at least capable enough to play a good game 518 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,680 on their home floor. Why am I looking at this 519 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,960 as kind of like you know I want to attack 520 00:26:54,039 --> 00:26:58,119 this sort of spot because I don't think McNeese State 521 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,359 is as good as they were last year, but I 522 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,079 think they are still superior to the rest of the league. 523 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,039 They're still elite in the context of the Southland, and 524 00:27:06,039 --> 00:27:08,759 they're still going to get priced like they did last 525 00:27:08,799 --> 00:27:12,559 year in all of these games. Bill Armstrong great coach. 526 00:27:12,599 --> 00:27:13,960 I'm sure he's going to be able to sort of 527 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,240 carry the torch, but he's not well wide. I don't 528 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,759 know if this team has quite the talent they did 529 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,279 last year with Wade. And while I still think they're 530 00:27:22,319 --> 00:27:26,400 a very good team, we've seen that so far. Asking 531 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,680 them to go on the road and lay fifteen or 532 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,680 huge numbers in what is going to be every Southland 533 00:27:34,759 --> 00:27:38,119 team super Bowl is going to be very, very difficult 534 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:42,240 to do and cover those big numbers at home. They're 535 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,160 going to destroy teams like they crushed Tech, East Texas 536 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:49,079 A and M Who's Bad on Friday, they crush Northwestern State, 537 00:27:49,319 --> 00:27:52,559 Who's bad. Those teams, if you've noticed, are not on 538 00:27:52,599 --> 00:27:54,960 my list of teams I'd be willing to go to 539 00:27:55,039 --> 00:27:58,240 war with rob and they crush both of those teams. 540 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:03,200 Houston Christian I actually don't mind what I've seen out 541 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,759 of them. They've been competitive in most of the games 542 00:28:06,759 --> 00:28:10,079 that they should be competitive in, and again it's a 543 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,839 small gym. I expect them to have a decent crowd. 544 00:28:13,079 --> 00:28:15,359 And I'm more or less just saying that I don't 545 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:20,119 agree with the massive premium that's being attached to McNeice 546 00:28:20,839 --> 00:28:24,640 on the road now that it's no longer will wide McNeice. So, 547 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,319 Houston Christian beat a good New Orleans team the other day, 548 00:28:28,319 --> 00:28:30,039 went on the road and won that game. They played 549 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,519 North Texas in the super pit in Denton to a 550 00:28:33,519 --> 00:28:38,799 two point final. Again, I just think they're capable enough 551 00:28:39,359 --> 00:28:42,119 to hang around and keep this interesting. I don't know 552 00:28:42,119 --> 00:28:44,960 if they'll pull an Increnet Word and win ROB, but 553 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,359 I definitely think they could keep it competitive. So I 554 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,160 took the fifteen points with Houston Christian today. 555 00:28:51,279 --> 00:28:54,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, and just real quick as you were talking to 556 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,640 because I know when BP was on the other day, 557 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,519 we were talking about the South play and maybe having 558 00:28:58,519 --> 00:29:03,240 some teams that could push MacNeice. Obviously, Incarnate Word has 559 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,000 already beat them. I had mentioned Houston Christian at the time, 560 00:29:07,079 --> 00:29:10,400 and it's based off of some of the results against 561 00:29:10,519 --> 00:29:13,799 UC San Diego. They only lost by eighteen on the road, 562 00:29:14,599 --> 00:29:17,359 and you're getting fifteen and a half here. Some of 563 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:22,000 these results somewhat leads me to believe that this team 564 00:29:22,119 --> 00:29:25,759 right now by odds makers is still undervalued, like the 565 00:29:25,759 --> 00:29:28,240 power rating hasn't caught up to how good the team is. 566 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:30,559 And that's the time when you want to take advantage 567 00:29:30,559 --> 00:29:32,240 of a team like this that kind of flies under 568 00:29:32,279 --> 00:29:36,200 the radar. Houston Christian not much emphasis placed on them 569 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,640 by odds makers, so you may be getting them at 570 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:43,119 a good price. When conference play took over here, you know, 571 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,519 you beat New Orleans, like you mentioned, you play sde 572 00:29:46,519 --> 00:29:51,400 Louisiana to an overtime contest, and prior to that, again, 573 00:29:52,119 --> 00:29:55,079 you know, playing North Texas isn't the easiest thing to do. 574 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,279 That style is difficult. You only lose by two to them. 575 00:29:58,759 --> 00:30:00,559 I don't know. The plus points here make a lot 576 00:30:00,559 --> 00:30:05,559 of sense. And what completely makes sense is the fact 577 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:08,920 that McNeice was a much better well, I don't want 578 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,279 to say I'm much better, but with Will Wade as 579 00:30:11,319 --> 00:30:14,440 head coach, we kind of knew Will Wade was the 580 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,839 guy who would want to put his foot on the 581 00:30:16,839 --> 00:30:19,359 throat of the opponents. We don't know that as much 582 00:30:19,359 --> 00:30:21,839 about it. Will Wade was looking to get back into 583 00:30:23,759 --> 00:30:26,359 into Power five basketball as a head coach and he 584 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:28,839 was gonna make his mark by beating Southland teams by 585 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,359 thirty And we don't know that we have that here 586 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,559 this year. So Houston Christian, not that you need my 587 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,160 stamp of approval, but I'm happy to ride with that 588 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,640 as half of our parlay here. So let's go HCU. 589 00:30:42,839 --> 00:30:45,039 Speaker 1: I mean, Bill Armshark took his whole starting five out 590 00:30:45,079 --> 00:30:48,440 the other day, like was pissed off, right like, So 591 00:30:48,519 --> 00:30:52,240 that's to me, that's like I still think they're I 592 00:30:52,279 --> 00:30:54,960 mean again, are they the best team in the south Land. Yeah, 593 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,400 Like they're probably gonna win the league. They may they 594 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,319 may only lose another, you know, maybe one more league 595 00:31:00,359 --> 00:31:03,640 game all year, who knows. And they're not going to 596 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,680 lose at home, probably not. It would take a lot 597 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,920 for them to lose I think on their home floor. 598 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,079 But when they go to these like, it's gonna be 599 00:31:12,119 --> 00:31:15,440 a good environment. Small gym got to get down there. 600 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,759 It is a tiny gym. They're at Houston Christian. I 601 00:31:18,759 --> 00:31:21,759 think you gotta like, I think you gotta like their 602 00:31:21,839 --> 00:31:24,240 chances to at least be competitive. You know, you lose 603 00:31:24,279 --> 00:31:26,880 by ten, you still easily cover that fifteen point spread. 604 00:31:27,319 --> 00:31:30,400 So yeah, that'll be my that's a that's a three 605 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,880 percent play for me. That'll be my leg of the parlay. 606 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 3: Rob. 607 00:31:33,559 --> 00:31:35,960 Speaker 1: I will give you the floor in a little bit, 608 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,240 but I want to I guess I want to just 609 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:40,359 transition to another game that I have my eye on. 610 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 3: That's sort of if it. 611 00:31:43,079 --> 00:31:44,839 Speaker 1: If it gets back to the number I want, this 612 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,200 will likely be a second client play for me. 613 00:31:47,279 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 3: And that is our favorite Increnet word. I you, I 614 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:52,240 believe it. 615 00:31:52,279 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: The Cardinal Cardinals maybe, but they they step out of 616 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,680 conference tonight is a big underdog head over to. 617 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 3: TCU and. 618 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: Interesting matchup because it's like, you know, they're a big 619 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,319 underdog out of conference. You know that they probably will 620 00:32:08,319 --> 00:32:11,200 get up for playing a big name team. But man, 621 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:14,920 TCU has some talented guards that defend really hard, and 622 00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:17,519 I'm wondering if that might be a little too much 623 00:32:17,559 --> 00:32:20,240 for uiw here. So anything on this one for you? 624 00:32:20,359 --> 00:32:22,640 Incarnet word TCU horned frogs. 625 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:27,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I looked at it earlier this morning, and again 626 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:33,400 where TCU is concerned, it's the defensive side of what 627 00:32:33,599 --> 00:32:37,000 Jamie Dixon. It looks like an improved defensive team. Jamie 628 00:32:37,039 --> 00:32:39,440 Dixon's team kind of went away from his pit identity 629 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,640 the last couple of years. They've been a team that's 630 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:45,519 been caught up in higher scoring games. But when I 631 00:32:45,599 --> 00:32:49,480 go back to that Michigan game, and I said it before, 632 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:51,400 I'll say it again. It was a night where I 633 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:55,480 texted you and said that Jamie Dixon had a real 634 00:32:55,519 --> 00:32:59,160 plan here, and they've executed it and nobody has held 635 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,359 Michigan this Michigan can score sixty and a half. They 636 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,039 only scored sixty seven for the game against this team. 637 00:33:05,119 --> 00:33:08,880 So defensively, I think it's key to look out for 638 00:33:09,039 --> 00:33:12,960 inside the Big twelve as well, the defensive oriented conference 639 00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,960 when we get into conference play, TCU may be a 640 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,519 team that gets involved in a lot of unders. Last 641 00:33:18,519 --> 00:33:22,440 game against North Texas played a team that doesn't want 642 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,119 to move up and down the floor. Sixty five to 643 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:28,039 fifty five, low scoring game. Question becomes will they score 644 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,799 enough to cover this kind of number, And perhaps because 645 00:33:30,799 --> 00:33:32,839 of the step down in class for them, they will. 646 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:38,359 They've actually played a ruthless schedule so far. Michigan, Florida, Wisconsin, 647 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,960 Notre Dame like I say, North Texas style is not easy. 648 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,240 They open the season with that game against New Orleans, 649 00:33:45,279 --> 00:33:47,319 who surprised them, I think right out of the shoot. 650 00:33:47,759 --> 00:33:50,720 But it's been a really tough schedule for TCU. So 651 00:33:50,759 --> 00:33:54,799 certainly they are a sharpened ball club right now. And 652 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,240 Incarnate Word might be a little bit out of their 653 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:58,960 weight class, right, that's what we want to say here, 654 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,279 out of their weight class. I could see, you know, 655 00:34:02,319 --> 00:34:06,039 I'm trying to look at the team total four Incarnate 656 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:10,960 Word here real quick, because that could be something to 657 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,480 look at with the defensive style of tsues. Incarnate Words number. 658 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:18,280 Actually it opened sixty nine and has been bent down 659 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,239 to sixty seven and a half. Now there's some sixty 660 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:22,679 eight and a half's out there. If you are going 661 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,639 to play that undershop, well get the sixty eight and 662 00:34:25,639 --> 00:34:28,000 a half. But I could see TCU holding this team 663 00:34:28,039 --> 00:34:30,159 below sixty eight and a half points tonight for sure. 664 00:34:32,159 --> 00:34:34,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean here's the thing with Incarnet Word. 665 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:38,360 Speaker 1: They're I'd be concerned about them on the defensive end, 666 00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:41,320 like being able to get a you know, just get stops. 667 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,719 That that's my concern. I think they've got the firepower 668 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:48,639 to score some points, but they really have they They 669 00:34:48,679 --> 00:34:51,000 haven't had to play like the crazy schedule where you're 670 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,760 playing like all power conference teams. 671 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:53,639 Speaker 3: You know. 672 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,599 Speaker 1: The only one, the only really power conference team that 673 00:34:56,639 --> 00:34:59,360 they've played so far was Indiana, and it was kind 674 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,440 of like I remember the game. 675 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 3: It was like a Sunday afternoon. 676 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,119 Speaker 1: It was not like the It was kind of a 677 00:35:06,119 --> 00:35:08,159 sleepy spot for Indiana, and they just kind of went 678 00:35:08,199 --> 00:35:11,800 through the motions and you know, won the game by eight, 679 00:35:12,159 --> 00:35:14,239 like it was a sixty nine to sixty one final, 680 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,480 and I don't think Indiana was very interested in the game. 681 00:35:17,079 --> 00:35:19,280 The other spot where they went on the road and 682 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,480 sort of stepped up in class non conference was opening 683 00:35:22,599 --> 00:35:25,719 night of the season at Colorado State and they got 684 00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:29,519 destroyed ninety eight sixty four. That was a very interested 685 00:35:29,599 --> 00:35:31,679 Colorado State team, of course, in their first game of 686 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:35,559 the season, and they just could not play defense against 687 00:35:35,599 --> 00:35:38,840 that Colorado State team. From the on the other side 688 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,719 of the ball, TCU, man, they have these guards that 689 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,679 will they're in your shorts like on every possession. 690 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:49,760 Speaker 3: They really are like a nuisance. And you know, you have. 691 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:52,840 Speaker 1: Guys like taj s Deaveski who liked to go off 692 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,320 the dribble that might be harder for him to do 693 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,880 in a matchup like this, right, Like, I think a. 694 00:35:58,800 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 3: Lot of incredent words. 695 00:36:00,119 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 1: Offense is started by his ability to like, you know, 696 00:36:03,559 --> 00:36:05,280 dribble and then kick out for a three. 697 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,440 Speaker 3: In credit word, a very good three point shooting team. 698 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: But like, I don't know that you can take these 699 00:36:10,039 --> 00:36:13,320 TCU guards off the dribble. They're all very like, go 700 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,760 look at what they did to Florida's backcourt, right, Like, 701 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:20,079 I mean, Florida had real issues trying to you know, 702 00:36:20,199 --> 00:36:23,360 dribble and get into the paint with the guards. Of course, 703 00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,840 we've talked about Florida's mid major guards this year. It's 704 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,960 probably another reason why. But like that, that's my concern here. 705 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,679 So if it gets back to nineteen where it opened, 706 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,400 I'll have to at least consider it. 707 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:37,559 Speaker 3: But for right now, it has yet yet to make 708 00:36:37,599 --> 00:36:37,960 my card. 709 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,079 Speaker 1: They were very intes that that's one of the more 710 00:36:40,159 --> 00:36:47,039 interesting watches for me tonight in my opinion. All right, Rob, 711 00:36:47,079 --> 00:36:48,960 do you know what you want your leg of the 712 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:53,079 parlay to be or do you is there something? I mean, 713 00:36:53,119 --> 00:36:54,840 there's only a couple of games we haven't talked about. 714 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:56,960 Are you thinking of a game that we've already discussed, 715 00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,280 or are you thinking of one we haven't talked about. 716 00:37:00,119 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 2: The one that we haven't talked about, Adam and the 717 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,440 Wyoming South Dakota State game, which is gonna be a 718 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:11,400 really good game. I forget if I use them as 719 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,679 a player in the parlay earlier this year, but I 720 00:37:13,719 --> 00:37:17,639 do know that we talked about them earlier. But it's 721 00:37:17,679 --> 00:37:22,159 the tempo change here for Sundance Wicks and his club 722 00:37:22,199 --> 00:37:25,599 that really has caught anybody's eye who's paying attention here 723 00:37:25,639 --> 00:37:30,519 this season. Early on, they're a much quicker basketball team 724 00:37:30,599 --> 00:37:33,519 as far as pace is concerned, and they're a really 725 00:37:33,559 --> 00:37:37,519 good shooting team. Now. South Dakota State in the past 726 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,079 was much the same, but under the new head coach here, 727 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,599 Brian Peterson, it just has it's kind of like they've 728 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,800 dialed it down a little bit. Adam. They become more methodical, 729 00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:52,719 like a North Dakota State has been inside the Summit League, 730 00:37:53,119 --> 00:37:55,559 and they're not racking up the huge numbers, and they 731 00:37:55,599 --> 00:37:59,079 did lose a lot of offensive capability as far as 732 00:37:59,119 --> 00:38:02,360 personnel is concerned. So I don't know that I fully 733 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:07,039 agree with the move towards the full game over, but 734 00:38:07,119 --> 00:38:08,960 I do think Wyoming is going to come in here 735 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,360 and get their share. We're looking at a team total 736 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,880 of seventy eight and a half here. They just played 737 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:17,519 South Dakota and got to one oh six. However, South 738 00:38:17,599 --> 00:38:20,320 Dakota is a team that will go is willing to 739 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:22,599 go up and down the floor with Wyoming, which is 740 00:38:22,639 --> 00:38:24,719 why you got that one hundred and eighty five points. 741 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:28,239 But ninety three against Dartmouth, one oh one against Denver, 742 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,760 et cetera, et cetera. Down the line, they've been impressive 743 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:36,639 scoring the basketball. They'll probably take South Dakota State out 744 00:38:36,639 --> 00:38:39,000 of their comfort zone a little bit here because this 745 00:38:39,119 --> 00:38:43,760 is a team that will defensive, rebound, and push immediately, 746 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,719 so it kind of forces pace. And I know I 747 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:48,920 often say that on the home floor, I expect the 748 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:52,679 home team to dictate tempo for more than half of 749 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,440 the forty minutes here, it might be an even split 750 00:38:56,119 --> 00:39:00,239 twenty twenty eight. Wyomings that different of a team here 751 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,639 for South Dakota State. So for me, it's going to 752 00:39:02,679 --> 00:39:05,639 be Wyoming over seventy eight and a half team total. 753 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,920 I think they'll get the seventy nine in this one, 754 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,679 and hopefully that clicks to the second half of our 755 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,599 parlay here. But Wyoming's been really really impressive, and I'm 756 00:39:13,639 --> 00:39:16,039 interested to see how they do here in the Mountain 757 00:39:16,079 --> 00:39:18,800 West against the Mountain West competition because so far the 758 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,440 results have been really really good. They've developed a style 759 00:39:21,519 --> 00:39:23,239 and they're sticking to it and they're playing it well. 760 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,639 The shooting, by the way, for this team, for those 761 00:39:25,639 --> 00:39:28,559 who don't know, really good three point shooting team, really 762 00:39:28,559 --> 00:39:31,559 good two point shooting team. A little bit of the 763 00:39:31,599 --> 00:39:34,480 defense is picked up as well. I'll be on Wyoming. 764 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the game is not at campus. It's at 765 00:39:38,559 --> 00:39:43,199 the Sanford Pentagon, which probably helps Wyoming. Just to give 766 00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,719 you more sort of you know, I would say that 767 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,679 that's probably better for Wyoming than going and going to 768 00:39:49,679 --> 00:39:51,760 having to play a true road game at campus. 769 00:39:52,679 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 2: I got the tournament right. The Summit tournament is held 770 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,320 there in the Pentagon. I think I. 771 00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,840 Speaker 3: Believe they play a summit tournament there. 772 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,760 Speaker 1: They have a whole bunch of non conference They pretty 773 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,400 much now are getting some big time non conference games. 774 00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:09,440 I think Mississippi State played a non conference game there 775 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:11,000 earlier this year. They've been doing it for a couple 776 00:40:11,039 --> 00:40:13,679 of years now, so I would say, like, go back 777 00:40:13,679 --> 00:40:15,679 and maybe look at some of the scores in those games. 778 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,480 I don't remember the softness of the rim, but I 779 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:20,800 remember a couple of years ago, I think Auburn and 780 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,159 Baylor played a pretty high scoring game at Sanford Pentagon. 781 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 3: So that's where that game will be tonight. 782 00:40:26,519 --> 00:40:29,679 Speaker 1: It's not on campus, it is in suit Falls at 783 00:40:29,679 --> 00:40:30,599 the Samford Pentagon. 784 00:40:31,039 --> 00:40:32,360 Speaker 3: And again, though I. 785 00:40:34,119 --> 00:40:38,920 Speaker 1: Can't really disagree with that, Wyoming's probably get You know, 786 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,880 the other thing about South Dakota State, I've been down 787 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,400 on them so far this year. 788 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:46,559 Speaker 3: Now I do think that they're maybe improving a little bit. 789 00:40:46,599 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 1: Of course, their head coach is now Drake's head coach, 790 00:40:49,079 --> 00:40:52,519 and the new head coach, I believe was from I 791 00:40:52,519 --> 00:40:54,440 think he was an assistant that got elevated to the 792 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:55,320 head coaching position. 793 00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,119 Speaker 3: I'll have that. You'll have to fact check me on that. 794 00:40:57,599 --> 00:41:01,239 But I caught some of South Dakota State. 795 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,639 Speaker 1: In the one tournament they played in over feast week, 796 00:41:04,679 --> 00:41:09,400 and they were awful, just horrible against Irvine and against 797 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:13,000 Utah Valley. Who you know, Wyoming is a step up 798 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,360 in comp that that's kind of the same level of competition, 799 00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:18,679 Like if you want to look at Wyoming levels of 800 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:23,360 competition for for South Dakota State so far this year, 801 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,239 it would be Northern Iowa who they lost to, It 802 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,559 would be Utah Valley who they lost to got crushed, 803 00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:31,559 and it would be you see Irvine, who they also 804 00:41:31,639 --> 00:41:35,960 lost to and got crushed. If Wyoming is doing the 805 00:41:36,119 --> 00:41:39,800 crushing rob they're gonna go over that that number right like, 806 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:44,440 they're gonna probably score ninety eighty eighty five. So if 807 00:41:44,519 --> 00:41:46,920 that's the case, I think you've got a good one 808 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:47,960 with the team total. 809 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:50,920 Speaker 2: And the key is the teams that you've rattled off 810 00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:53,440 there at. Now, Utah Valley is a pretty efficient team, 811 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:59,320 but quick check of their schedule shows nobody honestly that 812 00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:00,800 plays at tempo. 813 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, even go to go to that opener. Merrimack plays 814 00:42:06,559 --> 00:42:08,199 as slow as can be. They're just gonna sit in 815 00:42:08,199 --> 00:42:10,039 the zone. So you're right, they haven't seen much of 816 00:42:10,079 --> 00:42:11,159 this pace yet this year. 817 00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 2: Sixty six points there, Oregon doesn't play with pace. They 818 00:42:15,039 --> 00:42:17,599 got to eighty three. Of course they're a Power five 819 00:42:17,679 --> 00:42:20,519 conference team, but it will be interesting to see how 820 00:42:20,519 --> 00:42:22,719 South Dakota State tries to handle this. Like I say, 821 00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,440 I do feel like Wyoming can control a little bit 822 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,320 of the pace longer than you would expect. Not a 823 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,840 true road team here, but semi road team to do. 824 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:34,960 So we'll ride that, We'll route for seventy nine points here, 825 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:36,920 and hopefully we click on a two teamer and get 826 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:38,920 ourselves back into the plus category. 827 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 1: All right, we can move along. There is still a 828 00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:47,000 couple of games to talk about. I see Bayou popped 829 00:42:47,039 --> 00:42:49,199 into the chat. He's at Alabama A and M. Is 830 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,119 a live home dog tonight. North Alabama has won three 831 00:42:52,159 --> 00:42:53,960 in a row, but haven't played in twelve days and 832 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,000 now play a true road game where Alabama A and 833 00:42:57,039 --> 00:43:02,239 have already beat Charleston Southern. They oh, they have Gramblings, 834 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,320 old head coach who brought Grambling to the dance multiple 835 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:06,840 times in the swack. Well, I'll say like I was, 836 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:11,039 I was very fortunate to get a win with Coastal 837 00:43:11,079 --> 00:43:14,679 Carolina earlier this year against Alabama A and M. 838 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,800 Speaker 3: And they just they hung around there. 839 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,960 Speaker 1: They're very, very scrappy team. 840 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,159 Speaker 3: They made that game really ugly. 841 00:43:24,159 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 1: It was a game that I felt like Coastal Carolina 842 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:30,039 should have destroyed them, and they ended up I kind 843 00:43:30,039 --> 00:43:32,440 of got lucky to win by seven. That game was 844 00:43:32,519 --> 00:43:34,559 like they came all the way back and cut it 845 00:43:34,599 --> 00:43:36,880 to like one with like two minutes left, and I 846 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,239 won on some free throws there. To Bayou's point, they 847 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:44,639 don't play They don't play many home games. They don't 848 00:43:44,639 --> 00:43:48,000 get many home games. It's one of those swack teams 849 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:51,079 that's often trying to pay the bills, right Rob. They 850 00:43:51,119 --> 00:43:55,159 went to Indiana, they went to Clemson. But you know, 851 00:43:55,559 --> 00:43:58,679 they probably have had more home games than most in 852 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:02,519 this league. They you know, and they've been good at home. 853 00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:04,880 They knocked off Charleston Southern, that's a nice win. As 854 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:09,079 by you said, they knocked off linden Wood, and they 855 00:44:09,159 --> 00:44:11,760 knocked off Tennessee State. So you know, this is a 856 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:15,920 team that is let me just checked the standings here. 857 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,239 I believe, yeah, five and zero at home this year, 858 00:44:19,519 --> 00:44:22,159 and I gotta imagine that North Alabama and Alabama A 859 00:44:22,159 --> 00:44:23,599 and M is at least a little bit of an 860 00:44:23,599 --> 00:44:26,000 in state, right. I think there's only five D one, 861 00:44:27,159 --> 00:44:30,039 maybe five or sixty one Alabama schools, maybe seven, I 862 00:44:30,039 --> 00:44:33,800 don't remember, but again, got to be like a little 863 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:35,480 bit of juice there for Alabama and M. 864 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,159 Speaker 3: So I kind of agree with Bayo. 865 00:44:37,199 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 2: What do you think, Well, the North Alabama side is 866 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:43,960 the one that I would be more familiar with here, 867 00:44:44,079 --> 00:44:47,159 and because last year they were a team that was 868 00:44:47,159 --> 00:44:49,760 a pretty good bed On, they had the bed On 869 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:52,159 signal on them for most of the year. They wound 870 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,760 up being a twenty plus win team. I'm forgetting the 871 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:56,679 exact record, but I know they went into the twenties 872 00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:00,039 and they did a lot of points spread covering. But 873 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,159 to start the season, when I looked at them, you 874 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,039 see three brand new starters on this team. Now, a 875 00:45:05,079 --> 00:45:08,480 couple elevated from the program like that. They're not transfers 876 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:12,320 coming in learning a new system, but they lost key 877 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,840 members that could shoot from beyond the arc last year 878 00:45:14,880 --> 00:45:16,719 and this year you look at their three point numbers 879 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:21,000 and it's just not the same with North Alabama here. Thus, 880 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,440 you know the five and four record. Obviously, there's a 881 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:27,000 couple of power teams in there, Mississippi State, who I 882 00:45:27,039 --> 00:45:30,199 think we have all come to find out that Mississippi 883 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:33,880 State and the SEC plays not gonna farewell because Mississippi 884 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:37,039 State has not done very well so far this season. 885 00:45:37,079 --> 00:45:40,440 Clemson they lose to, but other than that, they haven't 886 00:45:40,480 --> 00:45:43,360 played a batch of impressive team. San Francisco's in kind 887 00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:45,559 of a down year as well. I just thought that 888 00:45:45,679 --> 00:45:48,519 replacing the three guys that were the key cogs last 889 00:45:48,559 --> 00:45:51,440 year for the I'm looking right now the twenty four 890 00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:54,159 and eleven team is what they were. But points spread wise, 891 00:45:55,039 --> 00:45:59,800 they were absolutely like a money printing machine. I think it. 892 00:46:00,239 --> 00:46:01,960 I thought it was gonna take them a little while 893 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:05,079 to get rolling here, if in fact they even do 894 00:46:05,159 --> 00:46:08,480 get rolling. But as you look through the way they've 895 00:46:08,519 --> 00:46:11,519 been shooting this year, it's just not good. And it's 896 00:46:11,559 --> 00:46:14,280 nowhere near the level of shooting that they had last year, 897 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:18,239 especially from three point range. So I could understand. I'm 898 00:46:18,280 --> 00:46:20,760 not as familiar with the Alabama A and M side, 899 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:24,440 but I could definitely put up a case for fading 900 00:46:25,039 --> 00:46:27,880 North Alabama. They're not the team that they were last year. 901 00:46:29,159 --> 00:46:31,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they literally lost like the best players 902 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:34,039 in the history of the school. So like that's that's 903 00:46:34,079 --> 00:46:37,400 the thing. I mean, Jacari Lane, Daniel Ortiz, like that 904 00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:39,960 that was the best team Northern Alabama has ever had. Like, 905 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:44,119 those guys are just not replaceable for a team like that. 906 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:46,679 So I've so I kind of came into the season 907 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,719 like all right, like they might be a little bit 908 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,280 of a fade. But to by and by you I 909 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,840 see talking about it in the chat, like Tony Tony 910 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,239 puliol is a tremendous coach, he does actually have a 911 00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:01,760 good amount back from last year. So it's like, I 912 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,519 wouldn't be surprised if if he's competitive in the A 913 00:47:04,679 --> 00:47:06,960 SOUN and this team is competitive in the A SUN again. 914 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:09,840 But the question you have to ask, and this was 915 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,440 at least the case earlier in the year to me, 916 00:47:13,159 --> 00:47:16,000 was how much of a tax are you paying for 917 00:47:16,079 --> 00:47:16,599 last year? 918 00:47:16,679 --> 00:47:17,000 Speaker 3: Right like? 919 00:47:17,079 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 1: They literally had the best team that they've ever had 920 00:47:20,000 --> 00:47:20,719 at that school. 921 00:47:21,159 --> 00:47:23,320 Speaker 3: Now we're nine game, you know, they're nine games into 922 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:23,880 the season. 923 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:27,760 Speaker 1: I would say that maybe that's you know that that 924 00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,719 tax was starting to go away, But then they beat 925 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,639 San Francisco right like, so they go out and they 926 00:47:33,679 --> 00:47:36,920 go on the road and knock off San Francisco has 927 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,000 like a seventeen point underdog, So I would say the 928 00:47:40,039 --> 00:47:42,519 tax is probably back right like now, and you can 929 00:47:42,519 --> 00:47:44,400 see it with the way the market is moving up 930 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:48,559 from two now to three and a half. So I 931 00:47:49,039 --> 00:47:51,239 really am puzzled here, and this was one I just 932 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,480 I think you can make cases for both sides. 933 00:47:55,119 --> 00:47:56,039 Speaker 3: I certainly don't. 934 00:47:56,519 --> 00:47:58,840 Speaker 1: I don't know if I trust like I can't trust 935 00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:02,039 the North like that one result against San Francisco does 936 00:48:02,079 --> 00:48:04,880 not have me thinking that this is last year's team. 937 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:06,559 Speaker 3: But at the same time. 938 00:48:07,039 --> 00:48:10,119 Speaker 1: I like Tony Pulil a lot too, and I think 939 00:48:10,199 --> 00:48:12,280 I wouldn't be surprised if he just ends up having 940 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:14,079 a great team this year with the guys he has, 941 00:48:14,119 --> 00:48:17,480 because he's a really good coach. So that is a 942 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,800 interesting game that doubt I'll I don't think I can 943 00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,119 make a bet in that game because there's just two 944 00:48:23,599 --> 00:48:25,159 to me, like, I feel like I can make a 945 00:48:25,159 --> 00:48:28,199 pretty strong case for both sides. But very interesting game 946 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:28,679 right there. 947 00:48:29,679 --> 00:48:31,840 Speaker 2: You might see some progression out of North Alabama. And 948 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,480 again the positive that we should paint for them is 949 00:48:34,519 --> 00:48:36,639 that it's not like they went out and got transfers 950 00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,920 that had to come and fit in. The new players 951 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,320 are from within that were in the system last year. 952 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:47,119 The problem, the negative I would have with them is 953 00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:50,480 poor shooting on the road just doesn't seem to be 954 00:48:50,559 --> 00:48:55,599 a sustainable thing at times. And again, the progression when 955 00:48:55,639 --> 00:48:58,559 it comes to a Sun play, the more games these 956 00:48:58,599 --> 00:49:01,639 guys get under their belt, the better the team becomes. 957 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:06,079 May become mid season I'm thinking a little bit differently. 958 00:49:06,079 --> 00:49:08,960 I'm just looking at their point spread results here, adam 959 00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:11,079 three and three over the course of the last six. 960 00:49:11,119 --> 00:49:12,800 But I think if you wanted to shave it down 961 00:49:13,199 --> 00:49:16,199 and wanted to see if you were seeing some signs 962 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,360 of progression here out of this team three and one 963 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:22,480 the last four big Dog cover against Clemson getting twenty 964 00:49:22,519 --> 00:49:24,480 five and a half, lost the game huge, but did 965 00:49:24,519 --> 00:49:28,079 get to the number, wind up losing straight up by 966 00:49:28,119 --> 00:49:31,960 fourteen to Chat as an eight and a half point dog, 967 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:37,599 lose cover against Jacksonville State, generally a good defensive team, 968 00:49:37,639 --> 00:49:39,960 and then win against San Francisco as you mentioned, which 969 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:44,199 is really a surprise five and one over the total 970 00:49:44,239 --> 00:49:48,000 though as far as a team total is concerned, in 971 00:49:48,039 --> 00:49:51,400 their last six team totals could be something you might 972 00:49:51,519 --> 00:49:57,639 want to start isolating here with this team. 973 00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 1: All right, one more game I believe that we haven't 974 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,079 talked about, and I'm pretty yeah, I'm pretty sure we've 975 00:50:03,079 --> 00:50:06,039 got one more game on the board today. That would 976 00:50:06,039 --> 00:50:10,320 be Bayou Bett's hometown team, see if he's still in 977 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:15,519 the chat. That is the Southeast Louisianallians, who I would say, 978 00:50:15,519 --> 00:50:20,440 for like, I've been mostly impressed by them, this year. 979 00:50:20,519 --> 00:50:22,599 I mean they hung around with They hung around with 980 00:50:22,639 --> 00:50:26,320 a couple of big teams right well, I mean Mississippi 981 00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:29,480 State and Georgia Tech qualify as as big names. I 982 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:32,239 don't know if either of those teams are very good 983 00:50:32,599 --> 00:50:36,119 this year. They had a really nice win over Navy 984 00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:38,679 that was out in Wilmington as part of an NTE. 985 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,800 That's a very good Navy team this year. And they 986 00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:45,079 won that game, and then they knocked off Houston Christian, 987 00:50:46,800 --> 00:50:48,639 you know, which was again like that was I would 988 00:50:48,679 --> 00:50:51,239 say a pretty competitive even matchup. But they went on 989 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:54,880 the road to knock off Houston Christian over the weekend. 990 00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:59,360 This to me at home, they should crush this team. Now, 991 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:03,039 it's easy said than done. But like East Texas A 992 00:51:03,079 --> 00:51:05,639 and M there their redeeming quality if they have one 993 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,519 rob is the fact that they'll play like eleven guys 994 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,960 and none of them are really different than the other, 995 00:51:11,159 --> 00:51:12,920 Like you know what I mean, they just have bodies. 996 00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:16,440 So it's like, I guess they have depth, but is 997 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:19,119 it really depth if no one's very good, that's my 998 00:51:19,320 --> 00:51:24,199 that's my question. They got blasted by McNeese State on Friday. 999 00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:29,599 I don't know, my gut, says Southeast Louisiana beats them. 1000 00:51:30,119 --> 00:51:32,760 Speaker 3: If they beat them, they probably cover. But I wish 1001 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:33,920 I had more on this one. 1002 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:34,239 Speaker 2: That is. 1003 00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:36,800 Speaker 3: That's that's all I got. Do you have anything to 1004 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:37,480 add to this? 1005 00:51:37,639 --> 00:51:40,719 Speaker 1: Southeast Louiana, Louisiana, Texas A and M, East Texas A 1006 00:51:40,679 --> 00:51:43,400 and M. That's a mouthful, thrilling affair. I believe it's 1007 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:44,840 Ham and Louisiana tonight. 1008 00:51:46,039 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, really quick. We did talk about East Texas A 1009 00:51:50,039 --> 00:51:53,440 and M last week, and I fully remember you saying 1010 00:51:53,519 --> 00:51:57,559 that they have eleven interchangeable players. And it was against 1011 00:51:57,679 --> 00:52:00,440 McNeice and they went and got destroyed by thirty. You know, 1012 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:03,599 they did play Yukon. That would be the only East 1013 00:52:03,639 --> 00:52:06,639 Texas A and M game that I have paid attention 1014 00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:11,159 to this season. In that game against Yukon, it's hard 1015 00:52:11,199 --> 00:52:14,880 to gauge. Danny Hurley just spread minutes all over the 1016 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:18,920 place against them, one by twenty four, kind of got 1017 00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,280 off to a sluggish start and then hit the gas 1018 00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:23,400 pedal a little bit to get the separation in the 1019 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:25,480 second half. But I don't know that it's a game 1020 00:52:25,519 --> 00:52:28,000 that Yukon really cared about. They probably could have won 1021 00:52:28,039 --> 00:52:31,920 by forty if they wanted to hard to make a 1022 00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,920 case for East Texas A and M just based on 1023 00:52:35,039 --> 00:52:38,119 result history here. They did be army, one of the 1024 00:52:38,159 --> 00:52:42,840 worst teams in college basketball this year, so they got 1025 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:45,800 that going for them. But again, it's conference on the road, 1026 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:48,800 and it's a short priced home favor against a team 1027 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:52,960 that really doesn't have let's call it somewhat of an 1028 00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:56,760 identity other than they play fast, because they do rotate 1029 00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,039 a lot of guys in and out their paces up there. 1030 00:53:00,199 --> 00:53:03,840 And let's split that up real quick here. I'll make 1031 00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:08,960 this point. We've made it before. Tempo adjusted tempo on 1032 00:53:09,079 --> 00:53:13,199 its face value isn't always quite what you think it is. 1033 00:53:13,639 --> 00:53:16,440 If you break it up by average possession lanked at them. 1034 00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:19,599 The East Texas A and M team, they give up 1035 00:53:19,639 --> 00:53:23,840 shots extremely quickly, and if Southeast Louisiana wants, in fact 1036 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:28,679 twenty first fastest in the nation, if Southeast Louisiana wants 1037 00:53:28,679 --> 00:53:30,320 to get into a running match with them, all of 1038 00:53:30,360 --> 00:53:32,639 a sudden, four and a half looks a lot smaller 1039 00:53:33,039 --> 00:53:36,440 when the point totals get higher. So we'll see how 1040 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:40,400 Southeastern Louisiana plays this when they're not generally a fast team, 1041 00:53:40,519 --> 00:53:44,039 not generally a good shooting team, but could fall into that. 1042 00:53:44,119 --> 00:53:47,519 Sometimes these fall into YMCA style games and you wind 1043 00:53:47,599 --> 00:53:49,480 up with a game that gets up and over the total. 1044 00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, Bayou says, you know. 1045 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:55,599 Speaker 1: They pointed out they played the Mississippi State game was 1046 00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:59,679 closed throughout like BYU's my Southeast Louisiana guy, Like, I'm 1047 00:53:59,679 --> 00:54:02,760 not even and considering a bet for against them without 1048 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:06,360 checking in with him first. Uh, And my number came 1049 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:08,000 out right on the nose four and a half. So 1050 00:54:08,079 --> 00:54:11,400 this was this was a pretty easy skip for me. 1051 00:54:11,519 --> 00:54:13,760 But it's also one of those like I know it's 1052 00:54:14,039 --> 00:54:16,760 a short slate today, this would be one of the 1053 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:19,639 games where it's like, even though my number is right 1054 00:54:19,639 --> 00:54:23,639 on the money, I'm pretty confident that Southeast Louisiana wins 1055 00:54:23,679 --> 00:54:26,599 this game. Like I don't really want to lay five, 1056 00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:30,719 but I'm pretty confident that they they win. So if 1057 00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:33,159 you really like had to parlay, like if you're like 1058 00:54:33,199 --> 00:54:34,679 a part you know you like to do like two 1059 00:54:34,679 --> 00:54:37,039 team moneyline parlay, which it's not really my style, but 1060 00:54:37,079 --> 00:54:39,920 I know some people will do that. I think that 1061 00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:42,639 would be I think you could Southeast Louisiana could be 1062 00:54:42,679 --> 00:54:45,280 one of your legs. The problem is I don't know that. 1063 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:47,719 There's many options to uh. 1064 00:54:47,639 --> 00:54:49,280 Speaker 3: Pair with tonight. Maybe Wyoming. 1065 00:54:49,519 --> 00:54:51,639 Speaker 1: That would if if you pinned me down for a 1066 00:54:51,679 --> 00:54:54,440 two team money line parlay tonight, that's what it would be. 1067 00:54:54,880 --> 00:54:56,760 Southeast Louisiana, Wyoming. 1068 00:54:58,440 --> 00:54:58,920 Speaker 3: I don't know. 1069 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:00,519 Speaker 1: I don't want to go like come out and say 1070 00:55:00,519 --> 00:55:03,280 I'm recommending that, but that would be my two team 1071 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:05,480 moneyline parlay if you forced me to pick one for 1072 00:55:05,559 --> 00:55:12,960 Monday night when there's seven games on the board. All right, 1073 00:55:13,039 --> 00:55:16,880 we have we managed an hour off of this slate, Rob, 1074 00:55:17,199 --> 00:55:18,519 I didn't know if we were going to be able 1075 00:55:18,519 --> 00:55:21,039 to do it, but we managed an hour off of 1076 00:55:21,079 --> 00:55:23,599 this slate. Of course, if you missed the beginning of 1077 00:55:23,639 --> 00:55:29,239 the show, we already did the full breakdown of Tennessee Louisville, 1078 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:32,519 which is a game tomorrow, but the goal of that 1079 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:35,960 was to free up more time to talk about Tuesday games. 1080 00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:38,920 So we won't cover Tennessee Louisville on the show tomorrow, 1081 00:55:39,199 --> 00:55:41,920 but we did cover it here and we will clip 1082 00:55:41,960 --> 00:55:44,440 that and make it into its own video which will 1083 00:55:44,440 --> 00:55:46,440 go on the wager Talk YouTube channel.
