1
00:00:04,679 --> 00:00:06,919
Speaker 1: All right, welcome in everyone. It is Monday.

2
00:00:07,679 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 2: It's time for full court press, and you know, Rob Vino,

3
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,000
I want to know two things.

4
00:00:14,039 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 1: One, I want to know how your weekend was.

5
00:00:16,879 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 2: And two, I want to know if you can remember

6
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,760
a day a Monday during conference play where there was

7
00:00:23,879 --> 00:00:27,000
not a single main board game, because that's what we're

8
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,480
looking at tonight. Every single game is on the extra

9
00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:33,320
board and I'm about I'm about to vent about it

10
00:00:33,359 --> 00:00:35,960
real quick, but I want to see how your weekend was. First,

11
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,359
And is this like I don't even remember this from

12
00:00:38,399 --> 00:00:40,079
last year. I feel like we always at least get

13
00:00:40,119 --> 00:00:41,759
one main board game to talk about.

14
00:00:43,359 --> 00:00:46,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is a little bit odd, Adam.

15
00:00:46,439 --> 00:00:49,679
Speaker 4: I get that there's an NFC Wildcard or an NFL

16
00:00:49,759 --> 00:00:52,679
and wildcard playoff game going on, and I tried to

17
00:00:52,679 --> 00:00:54,719
think back to last year without looking it up. If

18
00:00:54,719 --> 00:00:56,520
this was the case last year where they played one

19
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:57,159
on Monday night.

20
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:57,799
Speaker 3: Maybe they did.

21
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:02,119
Speaker 4: But when I looked last night for the overnights and

22
00:01:02,799 --> 00:01:05,560
all I saw was extra games, it was a little

23
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:09,159
bit surprising that they wouldn't even put one major conference

24
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:10,519
game on. But they just don't want to go up

25
00:01:10,519 --> 00:01:13,319
against the NFL. End of story right, They just don't

26
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,200
want to broadcast when the NFL is on ESPN or

27
00:01:17,239 --> 00:01:19,359
wherever this game is on tonight. I don't even know

28
00:01:19,519 --> 00:01:23,239
for sure. ABC Monday Night Football generally is an ESPN thing.

29
00:01:23,719 --> 00:01:25,400
You know, we've seen them take up three of their

30
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:28,400
networks for a college football game. Perhaps that's going on.

31
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,079
I'm not sure, but anyway, it is what it is.

32
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:33,519
Speaker 3: You came to a conclusion.

33
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 4: I agreed to it that we would start somewhere else

34
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,439
today and then work our way into tonight's card. And

35
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,519
by the way, the weekend real quick, Adam, was a

36
00:01:41,719 --> 00:01:45,920
very neutral starting with Friday Night five and five in

37
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:51,359
college basketball. The profitable part came because part of the

38
00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:55,079
five winners were the stronger plays, and I have not

39
00:01:55,159 --> 00:01:59,879
really released anything super strong all season long, lower base percent,

40
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,239
little higher volume. But we did turn a profit this weekend. Again,

41
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,680
so happy with that and onto a new college basketball.

42
00:02:08,199 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: Week that's sort of been by design for you for

43
00:02:11,719 --> 00:02:14,000
a little while now though, right, kind of like ramping

44
00:02:14,039 --> 00:02:15,800
it up when he gets the conference play, which makes

45
00:02:15,879 --> 00:02:19,199
complete sense with the sort of the randomness of results

46
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,439
in the early going. Forget if you're getting CELD or not.

47
00:02:21,759 --> 00:02:24,400
November December the results are straight up just random in

48
00:02:24,439 --> 00:02:25,000
my opinion.

49
00:02:26,159 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, they certainly are, and it's hard to Again, we've

50
00:02:29,599 --> 00:02:31,960
discussed it, but I'll just briefly say that it's just

51
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,159
hard to know how cohesive these teams are going to

52
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,560
be when you're putting three, four or five six new

53
00:02:38,599 --> 00:02:41,800
pieces into your rotation. Even the coaches had mentioned it's hard.

54
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,599
It takes time, evaluations, some experimentations. So we wait till

55
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,319
the dust settles we can get a firm grip on

56
00:02:49,439 --> 00:02:53,199
these teams and go after it. I will admit Saturday,

57
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:59,360
one of my top plays was Indiana first half against Nebraska,

58
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,879
and boy glad I shaved it down to just first

59
00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,840
half because Nebraska. What a comeback in the second half

60
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:05,319
out of them.

61
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, what a what a team, what a season for

62
00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:10,520
them so far? Kind of in the same boat as you.

63
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,479
I went two and two on Saturday, but I hit

64
00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:15,439
the two four percenters, lost the two to three percenters,

65
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,479
and then yesterday came back with a nice two and

66
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,319
oh sweep both four percent plays Illinois and then my

67
00:03:20,479 --> 00:03:23,800
Sienna College Saints getting it done. So yes, as far

68
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,319
as today's show is concerned, listen, you know we like

69
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,120
to talk to these smaller schools more than anything.

70
00:03:29,159 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: There's gonna be plenty of time for that.

71
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,879
Speaker 2: But what we're going to do is start with a

72
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,759
game on tomorrow's slate and it'll just give us more

73
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,439
time tomorrow to hit the bigger games.

74
00:03:39,439 --> 00:03:41,479
Speaker 1: So Rob, there was a time.

75
00:03:41,759 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 2: And this is the thing that kills me about the

76
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,919
fact that, like, I feel like they've really taken away

77
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:48,919
the Monday slate even even yeah, I don't really really

78
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:49,599
think about that.

79
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:51,759
Speaker 1: I have a huge NFL play tonight.

80
00:03:51,759 --> 00:03:53,759
Speaker 2: It's my biggest one of the wild Card weekend, and

81
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,759
I didn't even think about the fact that, like maybe

82
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,479
college hoop doesn't want to go up against the NFL.

83
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: But Rob, I mean I remember time.

84
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 2: Where there I was at a Syracuse game maybe fifteen

85
00:04:03,639 --> 00:04:04,680
years ago on Big Monday.

86
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:06,199
Speaker 1: There was thirty two thousand people there.

87
00:04:06,759 --> 00:04:09,639
Speaker 2: Like I feel like that that's almost been watered down,

88
00:04:09,919 --> 00:04:12,240
which is which is disappointing, and it puts us.

89
00:04:12,479 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: It puts us in a position.

90
00:04:13,479 --> 00:04:15,879
Speaker 2: Where we have to talk about a Tuesday game to

91
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,160
kick off our Monday show.

92
00:04:17,399 --> 00:04:18,399
Speaker 1: But that's what we're gonna do.

93
00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 2: Rob, Did you know that the KFC Young Center in Louisville,

94
00:04:23,079 --> 00:04:26,759
Kentucky has the second largest capacity for college basketball. Did

95
00:04:26,759 --> 00:04:28,480
you know that other than the Carrier Dome, which is

96
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:29,240
a football field?

97
00:04:30,319 --> 00:04:30,519
Speaker 3: You know.

98
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 4: The only reason I knew that was because I think

99
00:04:32,959 --> 00:04:35,480
you did say that on a show about a week

100
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,319
maybe whenever you were traveling. I think you mentioned that

101
00:04:38,319 --> 00:04:43,560
that was a huge, huge attendance place, a huge capacity arena.

102
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,480
So I did know, but not due to my own research,

103
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,079
because I did hear it from you, and the Carrier

104
00:04:49,079 --> 00:04:51,959
Dome obviously has been that way for ages.

105
00:04:52,399 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Carrier Dome is not an arena. I don't know.

106
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,319
Speaker 2: I mean, we're still playing basketball at football stadium here.

107
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,800
It makes no sense, but you know whatever, it's either

108
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:03,759
here nor their point is Louisville Tomorrow night, Virginia comes

109
00:05:03,759 --> 00:05:06,160
to town. We don't have a line for this game yet,

110
00:05:06,199 --> 00:05:09,279
but I chose this one for the feature because it's

111
00:05:09,319 --> 00:05:11,399
not gonna be more than a point or two either way.

112
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,839
Ken Palm and Torvik both have Louisville minus three. I'd

113
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,560
be shocked with the Louisville injuries right now. If it's

114
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,360
actually three, probably a little bit closer to pick. So

115
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,480
I feel like our breakdown is going to be applicable

116
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,240
regardless of what the spread it ends up opening in

117
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,759
this game, Rob, Louisville's gonna need all all twenty two thousand,

118
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,160
whatever it is that the young Center holds tomorrow night.

119
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,759
They they sort of desperately need a big win. I

120
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,439
feel like even though they're ranked, Yeah, they're probably still ranked.

121
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,120
I know they lost a duke last week. I wouldn't

122
00:05:46,399 --> 00:05:48,199
I guess you could call it a bounce back over

123
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,399
the weekend, though it was hardly an impressive one against

124
00:05:50,439 --> 00:05:53,399
Boston College. This is like a huge spot for them

125
00:05:53,439 --> 00:05:57,120
at home. It's a game they need. Virginia comes in,

126
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,279
you know, playing some good ball in this It would

127
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:02,399
be considered a signature win for Louisville if they can

128
00:06:02,439 --> 00:06:04,879
get it done. But they've got some issues right now, Rob,

129
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,199
how do you see that playing out here? This is Tuesday, Virginia,

130
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:10,439
Louisville at the Center.

131
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,439
Speaker 4: Well, unlike Louisville, Virginia under Ryan Odams seems to have

132
00:06:15,439 --> 00:06:18,920
no issues right now. They just continue to roll and

133
00:06:18,959 --> 00:06:21,319
it's tough to bet against them at this point. Adam,

134
00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:25,120
you know, I've sort of taken now that we have

135
00:06:25,199 --> 00:06:29,199
about four games right in conference seas in most conferences,

136
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,800
you have probably four games played, and I've started to

137
00:06:32,879 --> 00:06:36,839
somewhat discard in certain instances the overall statistics and turn

138
00:06:36,879 --> 00:06:40,279
my attention to what's going on inside conference play. Statistically,

139
00:06:41,199 --> 00:06:44,480
for Virginia, it doesn't really matter. I'll say this, the schedule,

140
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,560
the conference schedule I looked at. There's no major edge here.

141
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:52,160
Both teams have played Callen Stanford, big deal. But the

142
00:06:52,199 --> 00:06:55,040
other side, Virginia has played a couple of better teams,

143
00:06:55,079 --> 00:06:59,279
including in C State on their side, So I think

144
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,800
there's a slight schedule lean toward Virginia in this game.

145
00:07:03,639 --> 00:07:04,519
Speaker 3: But at this point in.

146
00:07:04,519 --> 00:07:08,199
Speaker 4: Time, I mean Pat Kelcey and Louisville, they are under

147
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,279
a little bit of fire for not being able to

148
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,600
win a huge game. At this point, I would say

149
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,120
this about Virginia. Everything I've seen out of them tells

150
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:22,079
me that arena size, crowd noise, whatever, isn't really going

151
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:23,600
to affect them in this game.

152
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 3: What would affect them?

153
00:07:25,279 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 4: Again, with Louisville at them, I think it's been said

154
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,040
by the two of us multiple times.

155
00:07:30,879 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 3: They need to hit threes. I mean, plain and simple.

156
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 4: Louisville's got to hit threes to be as effective as

157
00:07:38,279 --> 00:07:40,439
they can be in these games. And I'm not sure

158
00:07:40,519 --> 00:07:43,720
against Virginia that that's going to be the case here.

159
00:07:44,519 --> 00:07:47,920
As you mentioned, injury situation definitely a deterrent for the

160
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:52,839
Louisville side. But to me, man for man, let's go

161
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:57,079
this way, let's go category for category, fundamental ledge for

162
00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:01,199
fundamental ledge. There's really nothing clear that I can find

163
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,079
in Louisville's favor other than it's I'm gonna use the

164
00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:08,000
word desperate here, and maybe I shouldn't use desperate. I

165
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,279
just can't think of a better one. That's a little less,

166
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,959
that lessens it, softens it a little bit. But I

167
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,560
think Louisville is kind of in that spot where they

168
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:20,000
need a win against the team like this, and so

169
00:08:20,959 --> 00:08:23,079
you don't like to bet against what I would call

170
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,040
cornered animals.

171
00:08:24,519 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 3: They come out pretty fierce. However, while that being.

172
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 4: Said, everything would lead me back to Virginia in this

173
00:08:31,959 --> 00:08:35,039
case at that price, I just don't know that over

174
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:39,399
the course of forty minutes. Again, unless Louisville shoots lights

175
00:08:39,399 --> 00:08:39,919
out at him.

176
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:40,559
Speaker 3: I just think.

177
00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:46,679
Speaker 4: Virginia interior perimeter and apply that to the defensive side.

178
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,159
I just think are better in all spots. Right now,

179
00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,240
Louisville has been on this kind of underrun for guys

180
00:08:53,279 --> 00:08:56,000
looking for totals early here, they've been on this underrun,

181
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,759
but I think it's because they've just been overpriced by

182
00:08:59,799 --> 00:09:02,240
the odds makers so far where totals are concerned. It's

183
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,480
not like their games are low scoring. These are just

184
00:09:05,519 --> 00:09:08,559
these numbers are just the market is setting it a

185
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:12,279
little bit above where Louisville can get to and with injuries,

186
00:09:12,919 --> 00:09:15,039
don't know that it gets there here either. So we'll

187
00:09:15,039 --> 00:09:17,360
see where the total is going to land. But it

188
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,360
could be a play on under as well here because

189
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:23,799
Virginia is a pretty solid defense despite the philosophical change,

190
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:27,240
they're still a pretty good defensive team.

191
00:09:27,399 --> 00:09:30,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, a good defensive team that seems to continue to

192
00:09:30,519 --> 00:09:34,720
get better at the defensive end. You know it, They've

193
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:38,120
definitely improved. I think as the season has gone along defensively. Now,

194
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,799
the one saving grace here in my opinion for Louisville

195
00:09:40,919 --> 00:09:43,639
is the the In my the only way you're beating

196
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,120
Virginia at this point is to hit the three right.

197
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,840
So like Virginia has done such a good job, Ryan

198
00:09:48,919 --> 00:09:53,320
Odum remember, like you know, Ryan Odum, very different coach

199
00:09:53,639 --> 00:09:58,519
than you know. Virginia's had in recent years they're good defensively,

200
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,639
but there it's a different type of like being good defensively.

201
00:10:01,639 --> 00:10:04,639
Whereas like Tony Bennett and those Virginia teams played that

202
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,679
pack line defense super slow, limit the number of possessions.

203
00:10:09,279 --> 00:10:12,360
This is more like the VCU teams that were good

204
00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:17,600
defensively in past years, where great rim protection athletes, you know,

205
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,159
really gonna be hard to to sort of score.

206
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: Inside against them.

207
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,279
Speaker 2: So I guess the counter argument here, Rob would be

208
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,519
that is the like Louisville wasn't probably gonna gonna beat

209
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,679
Virginia at the rim anyway, So like that's I guess

210
00:10:31,759 --> 00:10:34,399
that that would be the counterpoint here. Louisville is the

211
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,720
type of team that can go like nuclear from three

212
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,679
on a given day and win a game like that.

213
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,080
My concern is the So I was at the Louisville

214
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,279
Duke game last week, and you know, in hindsight, that

215
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,600
first half where Louisville hit ten threes, I think was

216
00:10:50,759 --> 00:10:53,960
more because Duke just kind of went through the motions

217
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,240
on defense. We actually talked about this on this show

218
00:10:56,279 --> 00:10:59,039
a couple of times, where you know, very very sort

219
00:10:59,039 --> 00:11:01,559
of lacks of the baysical on defense, Duke had been

220
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,720
in the Georgia Tech game, the Florida State game, and

221
00:11:03,759 --> 00:11:06,320
even the first half of that Louisville game. Duke came

222
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,759
out with a much stronger defensive effort. In the second half,

223
00:11:08,919 --> 00:11:12,679
Louisville forgot how to space the floor. Just the floor

224
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,919
spacing for Louisville was awful in that second half. They

225
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,000
could not create a good look for anything, and then

226
00:11:18,039 --> 00:11:20,039
you carry that over into the BC game. I was

227
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:25,000
actually on Louisville for one of my losses on Saturday. Thankfully,

228
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,960
you know, only a three percenter and we hit the

229
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,320
four percenters. But I was on Louisville thinking that they

230
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,000
were gonna come out and just bomb Boston College and

231
00:11:32,519 --> 00:11:34,919
they had those same floor spacing issues in that game.

232
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,480
It's almost like by attrition they got to the twelve

233
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,799
thirteen point win. That was not a great performance by Louisville.

234
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,440
And now I'm starting to look at, Okay, how much

235
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,200
of that floor spacing and sort of keeping the team,

236
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,960
you know, the shape of the team, how much of

237
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,759
that to mckel brown, who's not there. Ryan Conwell didn't

238
00:11:53,799 --> 00:11:56,679
play on Saturday. So yeah, I have some real concerns

239
00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,360
for Louisville right now. I don't know if I can

240
00:11:59,399 --> 00:12:01,720
go back to the well with them, but they do

241
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:06,320
profile as a team that might function like better than

242
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,080
some others against Virginia because of the way they shoot

243
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:11,440
the three point shot. So it's gonna be an interesting

244
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,519
matchup for sure. And I wanted to talk about that

245
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,240
one today because there's a lot of big games tomorrow

246
00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,600
and it'll free up the hour for those other games.

247
00:12:18,639 --> 00:12:21,519
So that's Louisville Virginia. We're not going to talk about

248
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,519
that one tomorrow. We'll keep that one here, and yeah,

249
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:27,200
it'll be an interesting matchup for sure.

250
00:12:28,399 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 4: Ye I'll give the viewers one more avenue for Louisville,

251
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,039
which was taken advantage of by Virginia Tech when in

252
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,200
triple overtime they beat Virginia a forty one to fifteen

253
00:12:42,279 --> 00:12:44,919
free throw edge in that game, man plus twenty six

254
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,000
in attempts on the free throw line got Virginia Tech

255
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,399
home in three overtimes. I don't know that home whistles

256
00:12:51,399 --> 00:12:53,200
are going to be to the tune of plus twenty

257
00:12:53,279 --> 00:12:57,600
six when you're a perimeter oriented team. But that being said,

258
00:12:57,799 --> 00:13:00,960
it's not like Virginia makes a living. Virginia Tech makes

259
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,519
a living at the rim either, so you know, it's

260
00:13:04,639 --> 00:13:07,200
just another avenue. Maybe the reps blow a lot of

261
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:12,360
whistles on Virginia, which hasn't really been an overly handsy

262
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,559
type team. But as you mentioned, in Ryan Odams's system,

263
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,240
it's a little more applicable than it would have been

264
00:13:18,279 --> 00:13:21,200
in Tony Bennett's system, where in pack line you're not

265
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:27,039
really chasing ball aggressively getting up in ball handler's faces.

266
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:28,320
Speaker 3: So we'll see.

267
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,840
Speaker 4: But that's a that's a tough way to handicap a game,

268
00:13:31,919 --> 00:13:33,759
saying you're going to get a huge free throw edge.

269
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, well in your in your I know you love

270
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,720
the comp game angle in your opinion, isn't Virginia Tech

271
00:13:40,759 --> 00:13:43,799
And like, wouldn't that be the comp game a little bit?

272
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 3: Yes?

273
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,279
Speaker 4: And you know what, in just staring at the box

274
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,720
score here, Adam, Virginia Tech didn't even shoot well, like

275
00:13:50,759 --> 00:13:52,799
I thought maybe they had shot the threes well in

276
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:53,200
that game.

277
00:13:53,279 --> 00:13:53,879
Speaker 3: They didn't.

278
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,639
Speaker 4: They're nine for twenty eight, thirty two and thirty seven

279
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,639
percent from the floor. Their victory came and they didn't

280
00:14:01,639 --> 00:14:03,720
even shoot free throws well, but it was the number

281
00:14:03,799 --> 00:14:05,919
the opportunities. They're twenty eight to forty one from the

282
00:14:05,919 --> 00:14:09,480
free throw line. If Louisville can get to the rim

283
00:14:09,639 --> 00:14:12,440
like that, I would you know, you do need players

284
00:14:12,879 --> 00:14:16,559
like mckel brown and Conwell in order to get to

285
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:20,240
the line. Of course, Conwell more of a flamethrower, but Brown,

286
00:14:20,279 --> 00:14:21,080
I would think.

287
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 3: Is a guy who could visit the line.

288
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 4: It's it's a difficult ask for Louisville here, but we'll see.

289
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 3: Where the number comes up.

290
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,919
Speaker 4: Because what if the numbers not three, Adam, what if

291
00:14:29,919 --> 00:14:33,080
the number shoots overnight to five and a half or something,

292
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,480
then you probably have a little bit more to work

293
00:14:36,519 --> 00:14:37,440
with on their side.

294
00:14:39,399 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean Ken Palm and Torvick both have Louisville

295
00:14:41,639 --> 00:14:43,480
a slight favorite there, so I think, if anything, it

296
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,639
would probably trend toward like them not being favored with

297
00:14:47,879 --> 00:14:48,759
the with.

298
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 1: The fact that they've got a couple of guys out.

299
00:14:50,759 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 2: That's why I picked that game as the feature because

300
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:54,879
we don't have a number yet for it, but I

301
00:14:54,919 --> 00:14:58,759
figured it's gonna be probably pretty close to like pick

302
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,799
or a bucket either way, and you can apply you

303
00:15:01,799 --> 00:15:06,080
can apply the analysis the same way. All right, Now,

304
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,480
let's go to the Monday slate. Listen, We're gonna find

305
00:15:09,519 --> 00:15:11,639
a couple winners over the next forty five minutes. I

306
00:15:11,639 --> 00:15:14,879
know it is not the most extensive slate, but Garth

307
00:15:15,759 --> 00:15:18,080
has jumped in the chat with the donation. So Garth

308
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:22,200
very much appreciate you and the donation to the show.

309
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,000
And he wants to talk. He wants to go a

310
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,320
little meak action. He wants to talk Delaware State and

311
00:15:27,399 --> 00:15:32,159
Howard and Rob. I man, these smaller conferences are so tricky.

312
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,200
I saw so I got to see Howard play on

313
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,120
Kids' Day in Drexel at Drexel. They won that game,

314
00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,639
and that was part of a non conference stretch where

315
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:47,519
I was so impressed with what they were doing. And

316
00:15:47,559 --> 00:15:49,759
I think I even came on the show maybe within

317
00:15:49,799 --> 00:15:53,159
the week or the days after that. This is, of course,

318
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:57,559
after Howard knocks off NCA and t Hampton. That's a

319
00:15:57,559 --> 00:16:00,600
really nice win for them. Drexel then goes on the

320
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,559
road and wins at UNC Wilmington as a fifteen point underdog,

321
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:08,840
and I really was I was convinced that this is

322
00:16:08,879 --> 00:16:11,600
the team to be in the MEAC this year. When

323
00:16:11,639 --> 00:16:15,120
it's pretty much just them in Norfolk State. What happens

324
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,799
Rob They come out and lose their first two in

325
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,360
me act games because why wouldn't they, right, Because that's

326
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:22,080
just how it works in some of these leagues.

327
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 1: They go on the road, lose to.

328
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,399
Speaker 2: South and not they didn't even lose to the teams

329
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,279
that I thought would be the other teams in the mix.

330
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: Right. They didn't lose to Norfolk State.

331
00:16:30,399 --> 00:16:33,919
Speaker 2: They came out lost to South Carolina State as an

332
00:16:33,919 --> 00:16:36,240
eight and a half point road favorite, and then they

333
00:16:36,279 --> 00:16:38,799
lost over the weekend as a two and a half

334
00:16:38,799 --> 00:16:40,600
point road favorite at.

335
00:16:40,519 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 1: Maryland Eastern shore boy Am.

336
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 2: I tempted to lay the points at home here with Howard,

337
00:16:46,919 --> 00:16:49,279
I still think this is the best team in their conference.

338
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:51,919
I think they're a better team than Norfolk State. I

339
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,000
can't wrap my head around how this team just started

340
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:56,399
zero and two in league play, except for the fact

341
00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,720
that you know, a team like Howard plays a lot

342
00:16:58,759 --> 00:17:01,600
of road games in the non Power not exactly easy

343
00:17:01,639 --> 00:17:05,480
to then get dealt the two road games to start

344
00:17:05,559 --> 00:17:09,160
league play. I just think there's such a superior team

345
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,680
to Delaware State that I'm gonna I'm gonna take a

346
00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:14,599
position here on the Howard side. But for Garth, he

347
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,400
wants to know about the under both teams that combined

348
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,400
five and twenty to the under. And that was my

349
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,880
big takeaway from the Drexel game. I thought Howard defended

350
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:24,599
them well for forty minutes. So talk to me here

351
00:17:24,799 --> 00:17:27,519
maybe about the total, and then I'll sort of take

352
00:17:27,559 --> 00:17:28,759
the side in Delaware Howard.

353
00:17:30,279 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the way I would look here, honestly,

354
00:17:33,039 --> 00:17:35,480
if I was to, you know, just decipher the total

355
00:17:35,519 --> 00:17:39,200
is maybe towards Howard team total over it's a team

356
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,440
that shot ridiculously poor in those two road games to

357
00:17:42,519 --> 00:17:46,559
start the mix season, Adam. And it's a team that

358
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,200
they enter here the fastest paced team in the league

359
00:17:51,319 --> 00:17:55,599
as far as conference plays concerned, and they also have

360
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,839
an opponent that ranks is fourth in pace.

361
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,880
Speaker 3: Neither team you know to and it's.

362
00:18:00,759 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 4: A couple of games, but the offensive efficiency is down

363
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,519
on both ends. Obviously, Delaware State's not a good basketball team,

364
00:18:06,559 --> 00:18:09,599
haven't been for quite some time. So we're looking solely

365
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:13,720
from the Howard side. I would think that the potential

366
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:15,640
it's been pushed up a little bit.

367
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 3: The total has that the potential.

368
00:18:17,279 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 4: Is there for to get over simply because I would

369
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:24,079
expect Howard to shoot better here tonight at home, and

370
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,319
with pace, you get opportunities I would be afraid to

371
00:18:28,319 --> 00:18:31,519
bet full game over because I don't know what Delaware

372
00:18:31,599 --> 00:18:34,759
State can contribute here against the Howard defense and with

373
00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:40,039
their miserable shooting. Therefore, when I have thoughts like that,

374
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:43,559
I immediately zero in on the team that I think

375
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,640
can contribute, and for Howard here, the price tag is

376
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:51,039
not unreasonable sixty nine and a half over if they

377
00:18:51,079 --> 00:18:54,519
make anything in this game. And again, they're three point

378
00:18:54,559 --> 00:18:58,279
shooting efforts in the two games against South Carolina State

379
00:18:58,319 --> 00:19:01,519
and Maryland Eastern Shore, especially against sc State four of

380
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,640
twenty three seventeen percent, and they only shot thirty one

381
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,960
and thirty eight percent from the field. Delaware States not

382
00:19:08,079 --> 00:19:11,039
a tremendous defensive team. They've got some statistics that look

383
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,319
nice in conference right now, after a couple of games,

384
00:19:13,319 --> 00:19:16,799
I think that'll change real quick. So for me, Garth,

385
00:19:16,839 --> 00:19:21,359
my immediate reaction would be I'd rather just trust Howard

386
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,880
to score their share and trust the pace of play

387
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,240
to give them enough chances to get to over sixty

388
00:19:28,319 --> 00:19:31,000
nine and a half. It's not a huge ask against

389
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,720
Delaware States, so probably wouldn't make my card. But if

390
00:19:34,759 --> 00:19:36,599
that's the way I was gonna go, I would I'd

391
00:19:36,599 --> 00:19:38,160
be a little scared of full.

392
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 3: Game and go back to just team total. Howard.

393
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was.

394
00:19:45,039 --> 00:19:47,319
Speaker 2: I was really close to playing Howard over the weekend,

395
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,839
and I just I don't know. I mean, it was

396
00:19:49,839 --> 00:19:52,559
probably one of those days where, to be honest, round

397
00:19:52,559 --> 00:19:54,240
it got lost in the shuffle a little bit for

398
00:19:54,279 --> 00:19:57,960
me of one hundred and forty league games, because I

399
00:19:58,079 --> 00:20:00,839
had every intention after they lost to South Carolina State

400
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,720
to come back with them in their next game. Glad

401
00:20:03,759 --> 00:20:06,759
I didn't since they managed to lose to Marilyn Eastern Shore.

402
00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:10,240
I'm gonna use this for the parlay. I think, even

403
00:20:10,279 --> 00:20:14,319
though I don't show a huge number edge at nine

404
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,680
and a half, I think that that number is about

405
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,920
where it's supposed to be coming in oh and two.

406
00:20:20,599 --> 00:20:24,720
You're at home Delaware State, I believe. Yeah, they're one

407
00:20:24,759 --> 00:20:27,160
and eight on the road. Again, all all of the

408
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,119
teams in this league are gonna have a bad road record,

409
00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,160
So that doesn't really matter because this whole conference is

410
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,480
going to go out play a lot of by games,

411
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,279
so I don't expect any of them to have a

412
00:20:36,279 --> 00:20:39,519
good home record. It's just I think Delaware State likely

413
00:20:39,839 --> 00:20:41,880
so that you have two oh and two teams right here,

414
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,279
the only oh and two teams in the MIAC right now.

415
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,319
I think Delaware State likely finishes near the bottom of

416
00:20:47,319 --> 00:20:50,119
this league, Rob, Like I just you look at this

417
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,440
Howard roster. Cam Gillis from Lee High was a guy

418
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,759
that I liked at Lehigh a lot. He's averaging double

419
00:20:56,759 --> 00:20:57,640
figures for this team.

420
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:58,319
Speaker 1: I thought that was.

421
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:03,200
Speaker 2: A great addition for them. They also just got Cedric

422
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,640
Taylor the third back. Think he was like a Juco transfer.

423
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,960
But the point is, like in the six games he's

424
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:13,000
been back, he's averaging the eleven points per game. Just

425
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,039
these two teams are not even remotely close in my opinion.

426
00:21:17,839 --> 00:21:21,839
And I go back to like, listen, like you you

427
00:21:21,839 --> 00:21:25,039
don't just go to Trash Coliseum and beat Wilmington that

428
00:21:25,039 --> 00:21:28,799
that is a insanely tough place to play and win

429
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,079
that game. They were the better team, Like, that's the thing.

430
00:21:32,079 --> 00:21:34,359
They were the better team the entire game against Drexel.

431
00:21:35,039 --> 00:21:37,160
I don't I don't know how they lose those first

432
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,359
two games, but they're not gonna go zero to three,

433
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:41,119
and I think double digits is reasonable.

434
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:42,599
Speaker 1: So I'll go that's gonna be.

435
00:21:42,519 --> 00:21:46,160
Speaker 2: My parlay league here, Rob, I'm gonna go Howard minus

436
00:21:46,279 --> 00:21:49,960
nine and a half, there's still nine and a half. Hey,

437
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,319
by the end of the show, we might have to

438
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,720
make that ten. But either way, anything better than ten,

439
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,960
I think is a good is a good bet right there.

440
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,599
So yeah, I'll lay it, and I think I think Garth,

441
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:03,519
I think your path to the under two Howard might

442
00:22:03,559 --> 00:22:06,720
win this game so lopsided that there's like zero extension

443
00:22:06,759 --> 00:22:08,640
at the end, Like I could see them winning this

444
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:13,160
game by twenty.

445
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, let's go. I see.

446
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,920
Speaker 2: I guess the game that was gonna be the feature

447
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:22,279
game if I didn't go to Tuesday's board, would have

448
00:22:22,319 --> 00:22:27,200
been the only national TV game tonight, which is the

449
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,519
Patriot League in the standalone six pm spot that they've

450
00:22:30,519 --> 00:22:32,759
had for years on CBS Sports Network.

451
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 1: And it's actually a pretty good one. It deserves never

452
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,039
mind at seven o'clock.

453
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:39,480
Speaker 2: But still, I mean, it might as well be a

454
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,680
standalone tonight since they're not putting anything else on national TV.

455
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 1: This one's down in Washington.

456
00:22:45,079 --> 00:22:49,319
Speaker 2: D C rob at Bender Arena, one of the I've

457
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,200
still yet to go there, but I have a cousin

458
00:22:51,279 --> 00:22:55,039
that went to American and it's definitely definitely one of

459
00:22:55,079 --> 00:22:58,160
the more hype atmospheres in the Patriot League. So I've

460
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:02,240
heard Bender Arena and see where the American Eagles play.

461
00:23:02,759 --> 00:23:05,960
Defending Patriot League champs. However, they lose a couple of

462
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,480
guys that were sort of huge for them the last

463
00:23:08,519 --> 00:23:11,720
couple of years. Matt Rodgers, two time Patriot League player

464
00:23:11,759 --> 00:23:15,160
the year no longer there coming in as the four

465
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,720
and oh Navy Midshipman. I think, you know, coming into

466
00:23:18,759 --> 00:23:20,680
the year, some people had a couple of teams up

467
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,680
at the top, but to me, it's become apparent Navy

468
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,440
is going to be the team to beat in this

469
00:23:25,559 --> 00:23:30,319
league this year. The market has suggested that might be

470
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,440
the case, bumping this up from pick to two and

471
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,000
a half. Are you seeing anything catching your eye in

472
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,720
Navy American Patriot League action tonight?

473
00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:41,759
Speaker 4: Well, the first place I went to Adam was Total

474
00:23:41,799 --> 00:23:45,680
because American was on a stretch in non conference season

475
00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:47,839
where I believe they were like nine to one over

476
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,960
the total surprisingly, you know, kind of like the Denvers surprise,

477
00:23:52,079 --> 00:23:54,359
right which came to an end on Saturday when they

478
00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,200
didn't get over the total.

479
00:23:56,279 --> 00:23:56,559
Speaker 3: In there.

480
00:23:56,759 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 4: I think there's sixteenth game, so fifteen to one. But

481
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,079
American was the same way through the non conference, then

482
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:07,359
they hit conference season under under under and then and.

483
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,640
Speaker 3: Over against Holy Cross.

484
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 4: But it reverted back to what American generally is, which

485
00:24:14,279 --> 00:24:16,160
is the slowest paced team in the league.

486
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:19,759
Speaker 3: There are so many.

487
00:24:19,599 --> 00:24:24,400
Speaker 4: Categorical advantages fundamentally for Navy in this game. They both

488
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,920
shoot the ball pretty well, Navy a little bit better.

489
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,880
But I'll go strictly to the defensive side. Navy ranks

490
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,480
inside the top four in all eight or nine of

491
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:39,640
Keen Palm's major defensive categories, either one or two in

492
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,039
almost every single one. There are only four and one

493
00:24:42,039 --> 00:24:45,680
of those makes it tough on the American offense here

494
00:24:46,039 --> 00:24:49,519
to get anything past Navy. And then Navy shooting wise,

495
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,839
they're the number one free throw rate team in this league,

496
00:24:53,839 --> 00:24:58,240
get into the foul line better than anybody, while American

497
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,279
allows teams to get to the free throw line in

498
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:06,200
conference play more than anybody. So edge there edges on

499
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,480
the defensive end, the problem becomes, you know, it is

500
00:25:10,519 --> 00:25:13,400
a home game for American that I know in Navy's

501
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,519
the team with the bullseye, right, so they're going to

502
00:25:15,559 --> 00:25:17,079
be fired up here tonight.

503
00:25:16,799 --> 00:25:17,720
Speaker 3: And they're capable.

504
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,480
Speaker 4: I mean, we saw in non Conference Americans capable, I

505
00:25:21,599 --> 00:25:25,359
just don't know that they're good enough over forty minutes.

506
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 3: I kind of agree with the line move. We have

507
00:25:27,759 --> 00:25:28,319
seen some.

508
00:25:29,839 --> 00:25:32,319
Speaker 4: Maybe one or two places that have shifted back to

509
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,559
a two from two and a half, but the major

510
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,279
move took place already right from pick all the way

511
00:25:38,279 --> 00:25:40,960
to two and a half, and in an instance or

512
00:25:41,039 --> 00:25:43,400
two three, I think I agree with it. I think

513
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:47,880
Navy's just better at what American does in all facets,

514
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:50,960
and I don't know about to come from.

515
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 3: Behind ability for American at this point in time.

516
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,000
Speaker 4: You know, when you're accustomed to playing that style at them,

517
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,680
which is kind of take the air out of the ball,

518
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,240
and then you get behind six or eight becomes you know,

519
00:26:04,319 --> 00:26:07,039
fourteen or fifteen, or might as well be fourteen or fifteen.

520
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:08,960
Don't have to win the game, of course, they only

521
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,000
have to come within one triple of Navy in the

522
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:16,440
end to get the cover here, but I'm not sure

523
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,000
they can, so I'd probably lean Navy in this instance.

524
00:26:19,039 --> 00:26:21,680
The total, for what it's worth has been pushed from

525
00:26:21,759 --> 00:26:25,079
one thirty seven to one point, which still could be

526
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,000
in play a little bit because they are.

527
00:26:26,839 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 3: Both such good shooting teams.

528
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:32,039
Speaker 4: And As I mentioned, American had been on the early overrun,

529
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,240
but that has really cooled off in conference. But it's

530
00:26:35,279 --> 00:26:38,279
just like they reverted back to who they know they

531
00:26:38,279 --> 00:26:41,960
are once conference play started. The Holy Cross game Saturday

532
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,240
did score a lot of points, and Holy Cross plays

533
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:46,079
with a little bit of pace.

534
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 2: Navy getting to the free throw line at will. It

535
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,720
is very much spearheaded by one guy. So that's Austin

536
00:26:56,759 --> 00:27:01,160
Binigny is the I probably butchered the annunciation of his name.

537
00:27:01,519 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

538
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,079
Speaker 2: That kid lives at the foul line. He's a little

539
00:27:05,319 --> 00:27:09,920
he's small, Yeah, he's he's five eleven. I was at

540
00:27:10,039 --> 00:27:12,880
Navy last year and like was tall. I was standing

541
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,240
right next to him, his same height. But he is

542
00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,680
built like I mean, he's just a little pinball and

543
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,440
he just he just knows. I mean, if you if

544
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,000
you haven't watched Navy play, what you'll see tonight is

545
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,839
he's very patient. He gets he can get in the lane,

546
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,039
get to the rim, and he is a pro at

547
00:27:30,079 --> 00:27:33,480
like throwing himself into you and then you make being

548
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,880
the one that makes the contact. And he just lives

549
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:37,640
at the foul line and then when he gets there,

550
00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:40,400
he's an eighty eight percent pre throw shooter, So you

551
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:43,119
know that that is like a huge part.

552
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: Of Navy's offense.

553
00:27:44,559 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 2: He leads the team in scoring seventeen point eight points

554
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,160
per game, and he just he just lives at the

555
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:52,599
foul line. So in terms of being able to close

556
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:54,880
out games, I mean, that's how Navy closes out games.

557
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:56,839
They just keep the ball in his hands. He goes

558
00:27:56,839 --> 00:27:59,119
to the free throw line and and you know he's

559
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:02,440
got There's some games this year eleven for eleven from

560
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,960
the foul line, thirteen for fourteen, and I mean, he's

561
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,200
is a tremendous weapon for them. Something I love about

562
00:28:08,279 --> 00:28:11,960
Navy this year is so so ed To Cellis was

563
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:16,480
the coach forever, finally retired after last year, John Perry

564
00:28:16,519 --> 00:28:19,359
takes over. And something he's done which I like, which

565
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,079
I always thought maybe hurt Navy a little bit, is

566
00:28:22,079 --> 00:28:26,119
he's reduced their rotation. So like the last couple of years,

567
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,079
ed to Cellis was just subbing, subbing in waves of guys.

568
00:28:29,279 --> 00:28:31,880
I mean, he'd played ten eleven guys. There was times

569
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,720
where Navy would sull it would be a full online change,

570
00:28:35,039 --> 00:28:37,960
and I always felt like it didn't really let the

571
00:28:38,079 --> 00:28:41,240
key guys get into like the rhythm of the game,

572
00:28:41,279 --> 00:28:44,200
like guys that in my opinion, the Nigmy should have

573
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,359
been playing virtually the whole game, you know they have

574
00:28:47,839 --> 00:28:49,960
so now they've got a seven footer, which you don't

575
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,359
see at Navy very often, and Aiding Keyho felt like

576
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:54,880
he should be on the floor of the majority of

577
00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,680
the game. And last year, last couple of years, I feel,

578
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:01,440
you know, I would watch and it would be like

579
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:04,039
they couldn't really get a rhythm because they were constantly

580
00:29:04,079 --> 00:29:06,839
summing guys in and guys out. So this year Perry

581
00:29:06,839 --> 00:29:09,079
has gone to a much shorter rotation. I think it's

582
00:29:09,079 --> 00:29:12,000
helped them tremendously. And the only reason that I guess

583
00:29:12,039 --> 00:29:14,519
the only thing that gives me a little bit of

584
00:29:14,599 --> 00:29:17,759
pause here with American so I coming into the year

585
00:29:17,799 --> 00:29:19,839
they were they were a fade for me big time

586
00:29:19,839 --> 00:29:22,680
in the Patriot League. Reason being, you know, you had

587
00:29:22,799 --> 00:29:27,400
last year's team that made the NCAA tournament had uh

588
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,440
three or four guys that had been with that program

589
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,319
for four years. Matt Rodgers, who was you know, player

590
00:29:32,359 --> 00:29:34,319
of the player of the year in the in this

591
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,720
league a couple of times Lincoln Ball was a was

592
00:29:36,759 --> 00:29:38,799
a multi year I think he was like a four

593
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:43,200
year senior. Elijah Stevens was the guard that many thought

594
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,559
would would transfer up and came back. So like, you

595
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,119
basically lost three seniors all that had been with the

596
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,640
program for years. Like just something that you just don't

597
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,839
see in college hoop as much these days. And I

598
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,119
really thought that was gonna hurt this team. But Dwayne

599
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:01,400
Simpkins might just be a pretty good coach because they're young,

600
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,640
they're inexperienced, but they can play and this is a

601
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,160
tough place to play. So like, on one hand, I

602
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,799
love how it sets up for Navy from a matchup standpoint,

603
00:30:11,079 --> 00:30:12,799
but I can't help but think that this could be

604
00:30:12,839 --> 00:30:15,839
the spot where, you know, American steals went at home

605
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,880
and Navy sort of suffers a rare Patriot League loss.

606
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:23,279
So yeah, it's gonna be a good one. I I'm torn.

607
00:30:24,039 --> 00:30:25,960
I'm torn in this one. I don't know which way

608
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:26,359
to go.

609
00:30:28,319 --> 00:30:33,279
Speaker 4: Real quick, Adam an additional advantage for Navy here besides

610
00:30:33,319 --> 00:30:35,480
the free throw line, if it comes down to that,

611
00:30:36,039 --> 00:30:40,279
American filing quite a bit, Navy getting to the line

612
00:30:40,359 --> 00:30:43,160
quite a bit. That's huge, is but American you just

613
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,039
doesn't offensive rebound, and if you get a lot of

614
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,440
one and outs here because Navy is a terrific defensive

615
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:55,319
rebounding teams. The gap between being bottom twenty in offensive

616
00:30:55,359 --> 00:31:00,720
rebounding and being top thirty in defensive rebounding percentage is huge.

617
00:31:00,759 --> 00:31:01,599
Speaker 3: It's like the free.

618
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:05,599
Speaker 4: Throw rate we discussed, so free throws, boardwork. Does it

619
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:08,880
offset the venue? Does it off set the motivational angle

620
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:15,720
for American Obviously a Navy team just off of principle

621
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,680
is going to be venue proof. So I think there's

622
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,960
a lot of reasons to like that side. And again,

623
00:31:22,079 --> 00:31:26,279
you do kind of fear college basketball is college basketball.

624
00:31:26,319 --> 00:31:28,920
You have to fear some of these spot plays. But again,

625
00:31:29,119 --> 00:31:33,119
I think we discussed this last week, you know, in Nebraska,

626
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,119
just to add one to what we discussed, because we

627
00:31:35,119 --> 00:31:38,640
were discussing how spot plays just don't work the way

628
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,319
they used to work. Constantly you could just green light

629
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:46,279
those things. But Indiana full game against Nebraska is definitely

630
00:31:46,519 --> 00:31:50,920
a situational spot play that just didn't work. And in retrospect,

631
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,359
the visiting team, the team that you should have faded,

632
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,720
came from a large deficit in the second half to win.

633
00:31:57,799 --> 00:32:01,720
So spot plays not necess necessarily a great reason or

634
00:32:01,799 --> 00:32:04,599
a one reason to run to the window with somebody.

635
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:06,759
Speaker 3: I think Navy's probably the better team.

636
00:32:07,359 --> 00:32:10,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll point something out, so American has had

637
00:32:10,599 --> 00:32:13,200
has sort of been forced to play small this year there.

638
00:32:13,599 --> 00:32:13,799
Speaker 1: Uh.

639
00:32:14,279 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 2: Of course, Matt Rodgers was always that the anchor big

640
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,319
on this team. They had a a guy that I

641
00:32:21,319 --> 00:32:24,519
don't think is played yet this year who was supposed

642
00:32:24,519 --> 00:32:27,160
to be the center, and Eric Michaels, So uh, that

643
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,519
could be a big problem against Aiden Keijo, who is

644
00:32:29,759 --> 00:32:34,039
sort of emerged as the like most legitimate big man

645
00:32:34,079 --> 00:32:37,480
in this conference six'. Eleven HE'S i believe a senior

646
00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:38,759
NOW i know he's been there for a couple of.

647
00:32:38,839 --> 00:32:41,799
Years this could be a great matchup for. Him so,

648
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,640
YEAH i THINK i think if you forced me to

649
00:32:44,799 --> 00:32:47,519
to make a play, here it would Be. Navy but

650
00:32:47,559 --> 00:32:51,920
it's definitely, like don't Underestimate americans' ability to steal when at.

651
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,039
Speaker 1: HOME i feel like they've been doing that for.

652
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,599
Speaker 2: Years you, know typically the toughest trip in The Patriot,

653
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:00,480
league except not For, navy Because navy is the only

654
00:33:00,519 --> 00:33:02,960
Other Patriot league team that's down there in kind of

655
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,160
THE dc. Areas so, regardless will be a good one

656
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,519
to watch, tonight a couple people in the chat Saying

657
00:33:08,599 --> 00:33:10,160
navy team total over should get.

658
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 1: There.

659
00:33:10,559 --> 00:33:12,519
Speaker 2: YEAH i can't disagree with, that especially if they get

660
00:33:12,519 --> 00:33:14,519
a little extension and they're in the, lead because you,

661
00:33:14,559 --> 00:33:16,759
know the need needs is to go to the line

662
00:33:16,759 --> 00:33:19,000
and hit ten file, shots so might get you there

663
00:33:19,039 --> 00:33:21,200
even if it's not supposed to get. There but that

664
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:25,160
one's ON Cbs Sports network tonight seven, pm the one

665
00:33:25,319 --> 00:33:30,759
nationally televised game on this, slate And Jose perez says

Speaker 1: There all, Right, rob.

670
00:33:40,519 --> 00:33:44,400
Speaker 2: Let's move, well Actually i'll we'll wait for the comments

671
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,440
to roll. In i'll go to do you have a

672
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,839
game that you kind of on this? Slate knew you

673
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:51,759
were going to want to talk. About do you know

674
00:33:51,799 --> 00:33:54,960
where you want to go for the? Parlay at this, point.

675
00:33:56,599 --> 00:33:58,839
Speaker 4: You know, What i'll go ahead and go BECAUSE i

676
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,079
had a choice of, Three navy was one of. Them

677
00:34:02,119 --> 00:34:05,359
for those of, you just for what it's, Worth navy

678
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:06,920
was one of the THREE i was gonna choose.

679
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,360
Speaker 3: FROM i have a.

680
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,840
Speaker 4: Another side, though THAT i think is probably better here

681
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:12,599
another game THAT i think is. Better i'm gonna go

682
00:34:12,679 --> 00:34:16,920
to The Alcorn State Alabama state Game, adam a game

683
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:21,320
that's seen huge money on both ends so. Far this,

684
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:25,000
Morning Alabama state up from six and a half to

685
00:34:25,039 --> 00:34:27,840
eight and a. Half they're at home here Against alcorn

686
00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:32,119
the total up from one nine to one fifty three

687
00:34:32,159 --> 00:34:33,679
and a, half AND i feel like that's WHERE i

688
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:37,639
want to go. Here Alabama state has not yet been

689
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:43,039
able to, exert so to, speak their offensive, muscle But

690
00:34:43,639 --> 00:34:46,840
Alcorn state is so bad defensively at. Him and the

691
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,880
choice here for me came down to DO i want

692
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:53,480
to run with this move on the full game total

693
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,519
and play it to get to one fifty four or,

694
00:34:56,519 --> 00:34:59,639
more or DO i want to isolate the home team

695
00:34:59,679 --> 00:35:03,079
again the ridiculously bad defense and just Say Alabama, state

696
00:35:03,119 --> 00:35:06,159
go get me eighty one And i'll live with. That

697
00:35:06,199 --> 00:35:08,199
AND i think that's why that's Where i'm gonna go

698
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:11,760
with the parlay. Here i'm gonna Isolate Alcorn state can

699
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,119
get up there and score points, too BUT i just

700
00:35:14,199 --> 00:35:18,000
feel like this is a spot For Alabama state against

701
00:35:18,079 --> 00:35:21,519
a miserable. Defense they haven't had high scoring efforts so.

702
00:35:21,679 --> 00:35:24,480
Far LIKE i, say it's been somewhat it's been a

703
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,599
little bit since they've been able to exert some offense and,

704
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,199
muscle but here against this, team it would seem to

705
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,760
be the way to. Role so for, ME i think

706
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,199
out of the THREE i was choosing, from and this

707
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,480
is gonna make my. Cards so for those of you

708
00:35:37,559 --> 00:35:40,119
that are gonna go, ahead and maybe for those of

709
00:35:40,119 --> 00:35:41,920
you who are on the three day plan between me

710
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,079
And adam and we'll promote ourselves in a little, bit

711
00:35:44,159 --> 00:35:47,079
but this is gonna make the card today's you can

712
00:35:47,119 --> 00:35:49,199
write it, down But i'm gonna go With Alabama state

713
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,679
over eighty and a half in a game WHERE i

714
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,960
see a lot of, pace a lot of, firepower and

715
00:35:55,159 --> 00:35:59,480
the home side probably finally getting their chance to break loose.

716
00:35:59,480 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 3: Offensive.

717
00:36:02,039 --> 00:36:02,920
Speaker 1: ROB i love.

718
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:07,239
Speaker 2: THAT i was so HAD i didn't really know WHERE

719
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,239
i was going to go for parlay leg but if

720
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,519
it wasn't going to Be howard minus the, POINTS i

721
00:36:11,519 --> 00:36:14,280
would have laid it With Alabama. State SO i sort

722
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,320
of love how that worked out BECAUSE i would have

723
00:36:17,519 --> 00:36:18,599
probably stole.

724
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,079
Speaker 1: Your play your you, know can't couldn't use the same.

725
00:36:21,119 --> 00:36:25,599
Speaker 2: Game but either, way not sure how many how many

726
00:36:25,679 --> 00:36:28,639
of these shows can, SAY i was At Alabama state

727
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,679
one of their most recent. GAMES i went To Alabama

728
00:36:31,679 --> 00:36:35,440
state's game Last, monday and, again like they you, KNOW

729
00:36:35,559 --> 00:36:39,440
i kind of watched that game and felt like they

730
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,519
were like definitely the more talented of the two. Teams

731
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,559
just thought they got really frustrated By arkansas p lime,

732
00:36:45,599 --> 00:36:48,079
bluffs like just sort of relentless.

733
00:36:48,320 --> 00:36:50,159
Speaker 1: Effort and we'll talk about them in a.

734
00:36:50,199 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 2: Second but you, know this isn't An Alabama state team

735
00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:56,000
that you, know kind of everyone knows at this point

736
00:36:56,039 --> 00:37:00,360
has the crazy upset win OVER. UAB i actually think

737
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:04,280
they played poorly in the game against you, Know. MEMPHIS

738
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,440
i know my clients took a just a gut, wrenching

739
00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:11,800
brutal loss in that. Game they lost by twenty. One

740
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,159
we Had Alabama state plus twenty and a half and

741
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,320
they didn't score the final like three minutes of the

742
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,320
game and like pretty much all they had to do

743
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:21,239
was hit a file shot to cover and they did.

744
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,360
Not but if you watch that, GAME i, mean they

745
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:27,880
Played memphis relatively competitive.

746
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:28,119
Speaker 1: For the majority of that.

747
00:37:28,119 --> 00:37:31,599
Speaker 2: Game they Played missouri relatively competitive for the majority of that.

748
00:37:31,599 --> 00:37:33,119
Speaker 1: Game they Played New mexico pretty.

749
00:37:33,119 --> 00:37:36,280
Speaker 2: Competitive so this is An Alabama state team that we've

750
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:40,679
seen compete for most of the. SEASON i wasn't surprised

751
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:41,920
so much that they lost The.

752
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,159
Speaker 1: Pine bluff game being on the.

753
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:46,559
Speaker 2: Road WHAT i was really surprised was that they lost

754
00:37:46,559 --> 00:37:50,719
To Jackson state over the. Weekend but we've talked about

755
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,000
him on the show as. Well Deshaun ruffin had thirty

756
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:57,360
six points in that. Game Deshaun, ruffin Former All, miss you,

757
00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,440
know standout prospect that was like supposed to be good

758
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,639
At Ole miss years. Ago it is just a cheat

759
00:38:03,679 --> 00:38:05,480
code in a league like. This if you're gonna run

760
00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:08,400
into him score in forty on a given, night like

761
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:11,800
you're probably gonna lose that. Game So Alabama state still at,

762
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:15,199
home don't have to travel. Here Alcorn state in my,

763
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,159
opinion you, Know, Rob i've talked about The swack and

764
00:38:18,199 --> 00:38:20,440
there being a lot of good teams in The swack this.

765
00:38:20,559 --> 00:38:23,519
Year probably the top six or seven are all very,

766
00:38:23,559 --> 00:38:25,519
even AND i think you're gonna see that play out

767
00:38:25,519 --> 00:38:28,079
as the season goes. Along Alcorn state is not one

768
00:38:28,119 --> 00:38:30,000
of those. Teams this is one of the teams that will,

769
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,840
finish in my, opinion bottom, two bottom three in this.

770
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:36,920
League there's a clear dropoff to me in the swack

771
00:38:37,039 --> 00:38:42,280
between like basically the whole league and then Like alkorn

772
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:47,119
obviously In Mississippi Valley. State you, know there's A i

773
00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:49,000
don't know who else you would put in that very,

774
00:38:49,039 --> 00:38:52,360
bottom but those TWO i certainly have toward the. Bottom

775
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,519
SO i Think Alabama state rolls them. HERE i think

776
00:38:55,519 --> 00:38:57,280
it's a double digit. Win SO i think you.

777
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:01,119
Speaker 1: Could lay the points or go your route or the team, total.

778
00:39:04,079 --> 00:39:07,280
Speaker 4: You, know real quick at them without you, know going

779
00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:09,280
out and Giving when you get to, play you can

780
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,760
get the full. Analysis BUT i often say That i'm

781
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,679
a bounced back. Guy and just one thing that stood

782
00:39:15,679 --> 00:39:17,559
out in my mind WHEN i went ahead and played

783
00:39:17,559 --> 00:39:20,119
this game was the two for twenty two That Alabama

784
00:39:20,159 --> 00:39:22,599
state shot from three the other. DAY i just you

785
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:25,480
never expect those things to repeat themselves from teams that

786
00:39:25,559 --> 00:39:28,360
can shoot it a little. Bit so just another angle

787
00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,239
here to why we're playing points With Alabama state up

788
00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:32,000
in over eighty and a.

789
00:39:32,039 --> 00:39:36,519
Speaker 2: Half, YEAH i love, that AND, i LIKE i, SAID

790
00:39:36,559 --> 00:39:38,119
i think you're GONNA i think you're gonna get both

791
00:39:38,119 --> 00:39:40,000
of those things if you're if you get An Alabama

792
00:39:40,039 --> 00:39:42,880
state team total, Over i'd be shocked if they aren't.

793
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:46,880
Covering that's a double digit win for them in my. Opinion,

794
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,840
okay so that's the the parlay is locked.

795
00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 1: IN i don't.

796
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,800
Speaker 2: KNOW i think the package that i'll, promo the three day,

797
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:54,519
PACKAGE i think it.

798
00:39:54,519 --> 00:39:54,679

831
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:36,000
addition For Bethune cookman, Here. Rob but, man if you had,

832
00:41:36,039 --> 00:41:38,320
point if you had forced me to pick a winner

833
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,880
in this league prior to the season, starting which would

834
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,320
have been, very very difficult to do with with so

835
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,400
many teams close at the, TOP i THINK i would

836
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:50,199
have settled On southern as the TEAM i thought was

837
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:51,519
the best coming into the.

838
00:41:51,559 --> 00:41:54,800
Speaker 1: Season and but but again.

839
00:41:54,559 --> 00:41:57,519
Speaker 2: Speaks to the, parody speaks to the the how like

840
00:41:57,920 --> 00:41:59,960
strong the top half of The swack is this. Year

841
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,760
southern is is one and, two and there'res gonna be

842
00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:06,159
a dog on the road here Against Bethune. Cookman SO

843
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,199
i have to SAY i love the angle Of Doc bradley.

844
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,039
Back Bethune cookman of course made some headlines in the

845
00:42:13,079 --> 00:42:16,199
Non common as well non com as, Well BUT i

846
00:42:16,199 --> 00:42:18,079
don't know If i'm gonna Fade southern here as a.

847
00:42:18,119 --> 00:42:21,519
Dog what do you, Think Bethune, Cookman, southern do you

848
00:42:21,519 --> 00:42:22,360
have anything in this?

849
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:27,679
Speaker 4: One, yeah when you were just, Saying adam Be Dune

850
00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:30,800
cookman made some waves in the Non. Condon, obviously it

851
00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:33,320
was the season opener Against auburn where they began to

852
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:37,519
make waves. Immediately and then you, know the the relentless

853
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,519
non conference schedule that they play kind of took their,

854
00:42:40,599 --> 00:42:44,079
toll took its toll on. Them but for The southern,

855
00:42:44,159 --> 00:42:47,039
SIDE i mean they kind of made some waves. Too

856
00:42:47,639 --> 00:42:51,199
went To washington or, yeah went To washington and should

857
00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:55,159
a one time ninety. THREE i, mean played a great game.

858
00:42:55,199 --> 00:43:00,119
There so they played the same relentless schedule and it

859
00:43:00,119 --> 00:43:02,599
gets toll on them. Too, so as we always do

860
00:43:02,679 --> 00:43:06,480
in THE, swat you start fresh, HERE i somewhat lean

861
00:43:07,559 --> 00:43:13,760
Toward Reggie diaz's team here now the minutes that were

862
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:19,639
played On saturday By Doc, Bradley Doctor bradley in his,

863
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,480
return we're only seventeen so obviously he's on a minute's.

864
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:27,800
Restriction they're working them back seven, points. Etc probably will

865
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,400
be a bigger addition to the team and a bigger

866
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:34,159
piece of the. ROTATION i would say by game four or,

867
00:43:34,199 --> 00:43:36,559
five once he's got a few under his belt, again

868
00:43:36,599 --> 00:43:38,199
because it does look like they're being a little bit

869
00:43:38,199 --> 00:43:43,000
careful with. Him seventeen minutes pace should be. Good of,

870
00:43:43,039 --> 00:43:45,239
course you know, Me i'm not really looking at sides

871
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,440
to begin. With i'm looking at total to begin, with

872
00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,400
and this is WHEN i had the small check mark

873
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,679
next to to go. Over hasn't been pushed really out

874
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:55,159
of range yet one fifty, two only up to one

875
00:43:55,239 --> 00:43:58,199
fifty two and a, half which kind of indicates if

876
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,719
you get a seventy seven seventy six, game you get

877
00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:03,280
over the, total you win the. Money and to, me

878
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,639
with both of, these especially the pace That southern is

879
00:44:05,679 --> 00:44:10,360
gonna play, at probably to me seems like it's very.

880
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:14,480
Doable so without having, it without having to play on this,

881
00:44:14,639 --> 00:44:16,960
GAME i would say that's the WAY i would, LOOK

882
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,760
i would look toward this total getting OVER i think both.

883
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,559
SIDES i don't Think Reggie theis's team fears the pace,

884
00:44:23,639 --> 00:44:26,599
Either so for, me it would probably be with with

885
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:30,920
any form of you, know decent shooting in this, game

886
00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:35,079
one fifty three again should be very. Doable don't know

887
00:44:35,119 --> 00:44:36,760
that it'll make the, card but that's the WAY i would.

888
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:41,960
Speaker 2: LEAD i, mean you look At Pethune cookman's. Roster this

889
00:44:42,039 --> 00:44:44,400
is kind of an insane roster for it to be

890
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:47,920
A swack, team you. KNOW i, mean there's, yea there's

891
00:44:48,039 --> 00:44:51,320
recognizable names all over this. Roster Daniel rusan was great

892
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,800
For manhattan for like a. Year you, know you Got

893
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,840
bradley who was near a twenty point scorer in this

894
00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:01,840
conference last, season eighteen points six points per game in

895
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:05,719
The swack last. Season heady had a, good a really

896
00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:09,639
good year last year For Central. MICHIGAN i, Mean Reggie

897
00:45:09,679 --> 00:45:12,360
theis went out and built himself a. Team so even

898
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:14,360
THOUGH i kind of came in Thinking southern might be

899
00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:18,039
the best, TEAM i. DON'T i don't know IF i

900
00:45:18,039 --> 00:45:21,400
want to play against This Bethune cookman, team which just

901
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,000
like on, paper when you look at the talent might

902
00:45:24,039 --> 00:45:25,920
be the most. TALENTED i think IT'S i think it's

903
00:45:25,960 --> 00:45:27,639
fair to say that they have the most talent in this.

904
00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:32,760
League bradley only playing seventeen minutes last, game does it

905
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:33,639
mean he probably.

906
00:45:33,519 --> 00:45:36,159
Speaker 1: Does it mean he plays more? HERE i don't. Know probably,

907
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:37,679
Right they're probably easing him back.

908
00:45:37,679 --> 00:45:40,199
Speaker 2: In so if you only played seventeen over the, weekend

909
00:45:40,199 --> 00:45:41,920
you got to think that they're trying to build him

910
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:45,599
back into like he's going to likely play thirty minutes

911
00:45:45,639 --> 00:45:46,159
a game at some.

912
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:49,079
Speaker 1: Point so, man that's.

913
00:45:49,079 --> 00:45:50,639
Speaker 2: It this is you know, What this is just gonna

914
00:45:50,639 --> 00:45:52,599
be A this will be the game to watch tonight

915
00:45:52,679 --> 00:45:57,239
out of this league for, sure Because southern suddenly. DESPERATE

916
00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:00,480
i don't Think southern expected to lose To Prayer review

917
00:46:00,679 --> 00:46:01,440
And FLORIDA a AND.

918
00:46:01,599 --> 00:46:03,280
Speaker 1: M i think they were probably.

919
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,360
Speaker 2: Thinking, well we those will be two, games will win

920
00:46:06,519 --> 00:46:09,199
and so to be one and two going into this, Game,

921
00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:10,800
wow this is a this is a really.

922
00:46:10,559 --> 00:46:12,960
Speaker 1: Good uh swack basketball game. Tonight.

923
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,400
Speaker 2: Good you know, AGAIN i don't know what to do

924
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:18,079
with this one BECAUSE i THOUGHT i was gonna come

925
00:46:18,079 --> 00:46:19,920
out and make a case for The, dog and the

926
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,119
MORE i just look up and down the the the

927
00:46:22,639 --> 00:46:24,840
roster For. BETHUNE i don't really want to bet against this.

928
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:28,480
TEAM a challenging game right, There, ROBINO.

929
00:46:32,679 --> 00:46:33,480
Speaker 1: I want to stay in the.

930
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,360
Speaker 2: Swack, THOUGH i GOTTA i gotta shout out my boys

931
00:46:36,639 --> 00:46:39,039
At Arkansas Pine bluff who were so kind to me

Speaker 2: SO I i shout them. Out great hospitality there At Pine.

938
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:03,719
Blue loved my visit. There and the other reason they

939
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,440
deserve a shout, out Rob they're three and oh right

940
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:11,000
now in The, swack currently coming into play in first,

941
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:15,159
place you, know half game lead Over cookman And Jackson.

942
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:19,320
Speaker 1: STATE i was so impressed with just how hard they.

943
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:24,199
Speaker 2: Play got to know that their, Coach Solomon, boseman Former

944
00:47:24,559 --> 00:47:27,400
Sun Belt Conference player of The year back in twenty

945
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:30,159
eleven For Little rocket team that went to THE ncaa.

946
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:33,480
Tournament he's roughly my, age like thirty eight years. OLD

947
00:47:34,199 --> 00:47:35,760
i got to sit right behind the bench for a.

948
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,280
WHILE i JUST i love the energy of this. Team

949
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:44,840
for forty. Minutes they were, relentless just played extremely. Hard,

950
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:47,800
AGAIN i, SAID i Thought Alabama state was probably the

951
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,679
more talented, team but they just got out played for

952
00:47:51,679 --> 00:47:53,960
forty minutes in that game By Pine, bluff and Then

953
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,639
Pine bluff turned around and did it again On, saturday

954
00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,760
grabbed another. WIN i think we're a slight underdog on

955
00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:04,760
the road down At Texas. Southern so the question here

956
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,480
is how many times can they replicate that? Effort, okay

957
00:48:08,519 --> 00:48:10,800
because they're on the road again now they had To

958
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:14,079
Prairie VIEW a and M. Man i'm tempted to take

959
00:48:14,119 --> 00:48:16,559
three and a half here with The Pine Bluff lions

960
00:48:16,639 --> 00:48:17,079
rob but.

961
00:48:18,679 --> 00:48:21,039
Speaker 1: Do they run on a gas on the back to?

962
00:48:21,119 --> 00:48:23,360
Back that's my. Question any thoughts, here.

963
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:29,119
Speaker 3: You, know general thought would be, Yes.

964
00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:32,199
Speaker 4: Adam but then, again when you hate to get these,

965
00:48:32,199 --> 00:48:35,239
games the roll, situational and in this, INSTANCE i would

966
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,119
probably Say i'd lean.

967
00:48:37,039 --> 00:48:41,840
Speaker 3: More towards no as being that. Answer and for this, reason.

968
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:45,840
Speaker 4: Whenever you have a team that plays AND i know

969
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,360
this is a much higher, example But i'm gonna use it.

970
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:52,199
Anyway let's just Use houston Under Kelvin sampson for, example

971
00:48:53,199 --> 00:48:56,280
when you have a team that's high, energy high, effort

972
00:48:57,599 --> 00:48:59,719
getting after it, constantly and that's in.

973
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:02,079
Speaker 3: Them those, TEAMS.

974
00:49:03,199 --> 00:49:06,039
Speaker 4: I generally consider them to be a constant all the way,

975
00:49:06,039 --> 00:49:09,599
Through like when they have an effort you mentioned run

976
00:49:09,639 --> 00:49:11,599
out of. GAS i don't think those types of teams

977
00:49:11,639 --> 00:49:13,840
ever run out of, gas because that's what's instilled in.

978
00:49:13,880 --> 00:49:16,519
THEM i don't Think Kelvin sampson's team ever runs out

979
00:49:16,519 --> 00:49:21,280
of energy or work ethic or, effort et. Cetera and

980
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:25,920
if that's what you saw out Of Pine, BLUFF i

981
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:28,920
wouldn't think that goes. AWAY i think that that carries

982
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,239
over game after game after. GAME a lot of coaches

983
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:37,760
will instill that sort of style because it covers up

984
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,000
nights when you don't shoot. Well it covers up nights

985
00:49:41,039 --> 00:49:43,639
when maybe somebody's missing from the. Lineup if you have

986
00:49:43,679 --> 00:49:47,159
everybody playing that, hard you can you can you, know

987
00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:50,679
mask so to, speak a lot of deficiencies on any

988
00:49:50,679 --> 00:49:53,159
given game. Night SO i wouldn't think that comes into play.

989
00:49:53,199 --> 00:49:57,119
HERE i happen to think, that in looking at this

990
00:49:57,199 --> 00:49:59,920
game a little bit this, morning that the points probably

991
00:50:00,039 --> 00:50:04,440
we're worth. TAKING i just you, Know Pine bluff for

992
00:50:04,519 --> 00:50:07,639
what it's, worth they're the. Best they're a slow tempo,

993
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:11,400
team the second slowest tempo team in this, league but

994
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:15,760
they're the highest offensive efficiency. Team that tells you something right, there,

995
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:19,280
RIGHT i, mean we're gonna control, Pace we're gonna make our.

996
00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:21,800
Shots it's and then we're gonna give you a full

997
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,360
effort on top of. That that's a tough combo to

998
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:27,360
be on the, road or it's a good. COMBO i

999
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:29,079
should phrase it. DIFFERENTLY i should say it's a good

1000
00:50:29,119 --> 00:50:33,159
combo to take on the road when you can sort

1001
00:50:33,159 --> 00:50:36,599
of dictate, style maybe not for the full, forty but

1002
00:50:36,679 --> 00:50:39,000
again for a little bit of, it and you can make.

1003
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:40,679
Speaker 3: Shots on the other. END i don't.

1004
00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:42,400
Speaker 4: Know to, me WHEN i add up all the elements,

1005
00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:45,280
HERE i think the plus points are worth. Taking, again

1006
00:50:46,079 --> 00:50:48,760
not something That i've played, yet but we always do

1007
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:52,199
further detailed work as the day goes, on and maybe.

1008
00:50:52,039 --> 00:50:53,880
Speaker 3: It does make the, card BUT i would lean that.

1009
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:58,840
Speaker 2: Way i'm so tempted to just Take Pine bluff plus the.

1010
00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,920
POINTS i make it. One you can currently get three

1011
00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:06,360
and a half out. There rob Your Oklahoma state plug your.

1012
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:08,760
Buddy that gives us the good info In Oklahoma state

1013
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:14,159
will definitely remember this. Name Queon williams was At Oklahoma

1014
00:51:14,159 --> 00:51:17,840
state for two. Years he had an insane stat line

1015
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:20,480
over the. Weekend he's a, guard by the, way sixteen,

1016
00:51:20,519 --> 00:51:23,840
point seventeen. Rebounds it's his second double double the game.

1017
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,559
Before seventeen, points ten. Boards so you just want to

1018
00:51:26,599 --> 00:51:29,760
talk about like just out playing your. Opponent that's a

1019
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:31,599
guard grabbing seventeen boards.

1020
00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:32,440
Speaker 1: In a basketball. Game that's.

1021
00:51:32,559 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 2: Ridiculous Jakwan scott's been awesome for. Them and that's the other.

1022
00:51:36,039 --> 00:51:39,119
Thing they have guys that can put the ball in the.

1023
00:51:39,119 --> 00:51:41,840
Basket it's not just like they're all just out here here,

1024
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:44,519
Hustling like they have guys that can put the ball

1025
00:51:44,559 --> 00:51:47,519
in the hoop on this. Team and, again just very

1026
00:51:47,519 --> 00:51:49,199
impressed with What i've seen from them a couple of

1027
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:53,519
times LIKE i don't like See that's the. Thing Prairie

1028
00:51:53,599 --> 00:51:55,639
view was not one of the teams THAT i thought

1029
00:51:55,679 --> 00:51:57,440
was going to be very good in this. League they Upset,

1030
00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:01,199
southern they almost got almost took the loss of the

1031
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:04,599
year over the weekend in the swack one point went

1032
00:52:04,599 --> 00:52:07,480
Over Mississippi Valley, State so who, knows maybe came in

1033
00:52:07,519 --> 00:52:10,079
a little bit over confident after The southern, win but

1034
00:52:10,719 --> 00:52:13,679
you gotta do better than beating The valley by.

1035
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:15,559
Speaker 1: One that's almost a bad.

1036
00:52:15,639 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 2: Result so, YEAH i Like Pine Bluff plus three and a,

1037
00:52:18,039 --> 00:52:22,599
half And i'll be, thinking and, Yeah bayou, says like

1038
00:52:22,639 --> 00:52:25,960
listen that the fact that like they're they're playing, hard

1039
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,679
but they're doing it in a very controlled. Manner they

1040
00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:32,840
slow it, down you, know he, says still thirty thirtieth

1041
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:35,679
and pace in the. NATION i would argue that that's

1042
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:38,559
probably because they play by games all, winter and it's,

1043
00:52:38,639 --> 00:52:40,719
like you're gonna a team Like Pine bluffs just gonna

1044
00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:44,400
have to play the way the twenty five point favorite

1045
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:47,679
ws than to. PLAY i think this team probably prefers

1046
00:52:47,719 --> 00:52:50,199
to play a little bit more slow and. Methodical that's

1047
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:53,559
kind of what they did To Alabama state at times last,

1048
00:52:53,559 --> 00:52:56,800
week AND i think it. Worked so, YEAH i will

1049
00:52:56,800 --> 00:52:59,239
be strongly considering.

1050
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:02,400
Speaker 1: The Pine bluff. Side, plus, though points to real quick.

1051
00:53:02,159 --> 00:53:07,000
Speaker 4: To buyer's point that may be the fastest tempo league

1052
00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:07,519
in the.

1053
00:53:07,639 --> 00:53:08,880
Speaker 3: NATION i, MEAN i.

1054
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:12,519
Speaker 4: Don't it's all, downhill but, YEAH i mean everybody's in

1055
00:53:12,559 --> 00:53:16,440
the seventies for possessions are much. Higher the one Thing

1056
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,920
i'll point out About Pine bluff really quick, Here, adam

1057
00:53:19,000 --> 00:53:21,840
is the fact that you, KNOW i rattled off the

1058
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,639
fact that they're the number one offensive efficiency team in the,

1059
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:26,800
league number one effective field goal.

1060
00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:27,559
Speaker 3: Percentage it's not.

1061
00:53:27,639 --> 00:53:31,320
Speaker 4: Close those numbers aren't, close like generally in conferences one

1062
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:36,320
and two won't be separated by twelve percentage points like

1063
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:39,960
they are. Here so definitely a team THAT i, think

1064
00:53:40,039 --> 00:53:44,239
with their style could go To preview and. Win like you, mentioned,

1065
00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:47,000
boy when you come that close to losing to The Mississippi, Valley,

1066
00:53:47,599 --> 00:53:50,559
yeah either you overlooked it or you're just not that.

1067
00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:53,599
Speaker 1: Good all, right we can.

1068
00:53:53,639 --> 00:53:56,639
Speaker 2: Squeeze we can squeeze one more in. Here we'll go

1069
00:53:56,639 --> 00:53:59,440
to a different conference just to just to get one more.

1070
00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 1: In at the the, BUZZER a couple of, PEOPLE a

1071
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:03,400
couple of people want to Talk STEVEN. F.

1072
00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:07,880
Speaker 2: Austin i've been wanting to talk About increnitt word all,

1073
00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,880
Season But Rob, bino the MORE i Watched STEVEN. F,

1074
00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,400
austin the more IMPRESSED i am with The, lumberjacks the

1075
00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:16,280
MORE i think that they're a clear number two in this.

1076
00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,199
League so even Though i've kind of liked the word

1077
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:21,960
side at points this, YEAR i don't know IF i

1078
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:26,159
want to Fade steven ABOUT. F austin at. Home anything

1079
00:54:26,159 --> 00:54:28,239
for you in this one increnit Word STEVEN.

1080
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:30,760
Speaker 1: F austin, Tonight, WELL i.

1081
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 4: Think the way they, play and the one that kind

1082
00:54:32,440 --> 00:54:35,280
of opened my eyes was the game against, McNeice you,

1083
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,760
know the two point. Loss we've talked often about how

1084
00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:38,960
McNeese is the best.

1085
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:39,159
Speaker 3: Team in the.

1086
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:42,199
Speaker 4: LEAGUE i think it started back When Brian power was

1087
00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:46,039
still with, us and at that, POINT i think you

1088
00:54:46,079 --> 00:54:48,480
were pointing out that there's probably three or four teams

1089
00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:51,960
in this. League lit'ten just called McNeice a, runaway.

1090
00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:54,199
Speaker 3: Runaway.

1091
00:54:54,199 --> 00:54:56,840
Speaker 4: Team you, know this team has been pretty, Good adam

1092
00:54:56,880 --> 00:55:00,000
Since Brad underwood was. THERE i like the way they're

1093
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:03,719
this year though certainly the non conference wasn't as brutal

1094
00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:07,679
as a swack teams would, be but they were just

1095
00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:11,239
mowing through non conference, opponents so you could almost see

1096
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,719
this coming incarnate. Word, though as you, mentioned same thing

1097
00:55:15,039 --> 00:55:21,119
against McNee state played them extremely well, Too so it's

1098
00:55:21,199 --> 00:55:23,559
kind of a toss up. HERE i THINK i would

1099
00:55:23,639 --> 00:55:27,559
LEAN i have a bit of favoritism towards The steven

1100
00:55:27,599 --> 00:55:29,800
At boston, side BUT i don't want to sell incarnate words.

1101
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,199
Short so, again when you talk about games that you

1102
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:35,199
can watch in the league that are gonna be good

1103
00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:37,840
games in the South. Land this is probably a game

1104
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:41,119
by you might. Argue you might Think southeastern Against New

1105
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,000
orleans is the game to watch, tonight But STEVEN. F

1106
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,320
Boston incarnate word should be. Good definitely won't be on

1107
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:47,000
my card either.

1108
00:55:47,039 --> 00:55:52,039
Speaker 2: Way, MAN i WANTED i gotta figure out this is

1109
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,599
if this is a spot to jump in withincrenet, WORD i,

1110
00:55:54,599 --> 00:55:57,519
GUESS i. Guess my only concern is this is this

1111
00:55:57,599 --> 00:55:59,440
is the three road.

1112
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,119
Speaker 1: Game in seven days stretch for.

1113
00:56:02,159 --> 00:56:04,719
Speaker 2: Them you, know this league Plays Saturday, monday so every

1114
00:56:04,760 --> 00:56:07,360
once in a while in league, play you're gonna have

1115
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:11,280
like three straight road games where you Go, Monday, saturday

1116
00:56:11,320 --> 00:56:13,960
and the Following monday on the. Road that's what they're

1117
00:56:14,159 --> 00:56:18,440
running into. Here and the other concern is that they

1118
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:21,239
really haven't looked good in either of the last two

1119
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:26,440
games on the. Road lost by thirteen AT, utrgv lost

1120
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:28,880
over the weekend by twelve Against.

1121
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 1: Lamar that was a.

1122
00:56:30,039 --> 00:56:32,079
Speaker 2: Probably that was one of their worst performances of the.

1123
00:56:32,119 --> 00:56:35,400
Season only scored six fifty one. Points my gut tells

1124
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:38,159
me that they are at least competitive. Here that eight

1125
00:56:38,199 --> 00:56:42,239
and a half is super. Tempting But i'm just you,

1126
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:45,199
know the concern with me for increnit word at points

1127
00:56:45,199 --> 00:56:48,639
in time this season is that has been the defensive.

1128
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:50,599
END i like some of the pieces they have on,

1129
00:56:50,679 --> 00:56:53,840
offense and you, know is this a scenario where they

1130
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,880
just have no answer For Keon thompson and suddenly they're

1131
00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:00,320
on the road and they find themselves down in eight

1132
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:03,400
to ten point. Range you, Know steven F austin not

1133
00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:05,199
gonna close anyone out at the foul. Line one of

1134
00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:07,599
the worst free throw shooting teams in the. Country so

1135
00:57:08,159 --> 00:57:10,559
maybe the eight and a half is. GOOD i want

1136
00:57:10,559 --> 00:57:14,000
to think it, is BUT i haven't got there. Yet so,

1137
00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:17,840
Again i'm high enough on increnit word with Taj tveski

1138
00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:19,880
and some of the good players that they brought in

1139
00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:22,320
WHERE i think they compete with the top half of this.

1140
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,559
League of, course they have the win over McNee, state

1141
00:57:25,599 --> 00:57:28,920
but that was at. HOME i don't know IF i

1142
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,199
can do it on the. Road i'm Certainly i'm certainly

1143
00:57:31,239 --> 00:57:34,159
looking at. It increnit word will be on my short

1144
00:57:34,159 --> 00:57:35,719
list today for potential.

1145
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:41,119
Speaker 1: Spot All, right we are right at the finish, Line,

1146
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:43,440
rob you know we got. It we did.

1147
00:57:43,480 --> 00:57:45,360
Speaker 2: NOT i think we went one on one and one

1148
00:57:45,400 --> 00:57:48,719
on every parlay last. WEEK i literally think we. Split

1149
00:57:49,079 --> 00:57:51,559
so we're gonna try one more tonight if we if

1150
00:57:51,599 --> 00:57:53,079
we don't hit this, one we might have to bring

1151
00:57:53,119 --> 00:57:54,960
the three teamer back and then just put in like

1152
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:57,559
a joint, league just just to switch it up a little.

1153
00:57:57,559 --> 00:58:00,079
Bit or will let buy you pick or will bring

1154
00:58:00,159 --> 00:58:02,840
buy you back in as the guest. Picker that's what

1155
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:04,199
you know, what that's what we're gonna do if we

1156
00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:06,320
if we don't go to and oh today and hit this,
