Speaker 1: Who's looking to make somebody on Thursday night football, we're
talking chess and Patriots, and my god, it's already started.
I am Brian Powers sitting in for Lawrence President. This
is the best betting show ever, and of course because
of the best betting show ever, we'll be talking college basketball,
NBA and which way the money is going this weekend.
I am, of course joined by not my number one fan,
Joe Vernier in the middle and representing the other side
of the counter art to Caesar Art. You've got some
games picked out, I understand for Saturday to start us off.
Where the people are betting college football, tell us what
sides they're like for Saturday.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, three more games to run down. Oklahoma at Bama
obviously a very big game. Sharps took Oklahoma at plus seven.
We're now sitting Bama minus six. Have not budged back,
have not seen any Bama money. Total has not moved
at all. We've been forty six from our opener Michigan
at Northwestern. That is a game being played at Wrigley Field.
Sharp's layed ten. They played, they played eleven as well.
It's now twelve and a half. We always talk about
that dead number twelve, twelve and a half, those are
dead numbers, probably gets pushed up even higher, probably gonna
see at thirteen at some point there. Northwestern is going
to be a big need for us. And then a
very odd game Louisiana Tech goes to Washington State. Their
quarterback is out, and we've been on the high end
all week of Washington State minus eight and a half
total with the quarterback ins probably around forty eight. We're
now forty three on the game. We have yet to
have anyone want to take Louisiana Tech with their backup
plus eight and a half. Like I said, even us
being on the high end. So that's one to just
kind of keep your eye on.
Speaker 3: The strange game, art, is it not? I mean, that's
a little interesting there with Washington State. I guess there's
a couple We're getting to that part of the season
here where there's enough data in where we're starting to
see maybe somebody is really oddballt teams are off the radar,
team start to get a little bit of a pro
love here. Is that what we're seeing?
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, I mean I think you know, early on
in the season, obviously you know the pros and all
the sharps. They stick to their numbers as long as possible,
and then there's obviously a readjustment period, so you start
to see that with some of these teams.
Speaker 1: That Louisiana Tech team was quite fortunate early in the season.
For what it's worth, job that was. That was a
fortunate team. We bet against them oh weeks ago. Yeah, yeah,
it's it's Ohio.
Speaker 4: I went to ohiou not.
Speaker 3: Accurate, but you'd bet accurate. So we're good to go there.
How about the NFL keep it down because I still
have Lawrence pressmen up there because I don't feel like
actually changing And what's the difference. It was the difference,
aren't Lawrence Pressman? Brian Power? We're still losing the parlay
of the day here, talk to me about the NFL
if you could please tell me what's what's going on
here besides the night's game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, three games to talk about Chargers at Jags. You know,
we were two and a half minus, you know, one
sixteen trending to three. When we got to three, they
actually took the Jags with the three. So we're back
to the two and a half open forty four and
a half that's been beat down to forty three and
a half. We touched on this yesterday the game in Madrid, Washington,
Miami two and a half minus one sixteen as well.
We went to three on the game, then it went back,
so that game has kind of bounced back and forth.
Totals gone up from forty six and a half to
forty seven and a half. And then Texans at Titans.
We were seven all week on that game. Saw some
Titan money at seven, now six and a half to
the Texans. We know we're gonna take no matter who
the quarterback is Houston, We're gonna take a lot of
Textan money on teasers and money line parlays. So despite
all the Titans money at seven, we'll probably still need
the Titans.
Speaker 4: In the game.
Speaker 3: I think we got to check into our do how
is the Jamis Winston effect? Have we seen any more
love for your giants in the marketplace here? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, as we talked about early when
they took the eight and a half early in the week,
they took seven and a half, So it is seven.
But you know, we I made this very clear yesterday,
despite all that, green Bay is going to be once
again popular in moneyline parlays, popular and teasers. I think, regardless,
we will still need the giants in the game.
Speaker 1: Oh all right, some good information, guys, smash that like button,
don't forget to click subscribe and comment down below.
Speaker 4: I'm sure many of you have already commented that I am,
in fact not.
Speaker 1: Lawrence Press, but I am Brian Power sitting in the
pres But that's okay, Joe. I appreciate support. You're always
You're always so welcoming when I come on. Nice everybody.
I really, I really are sure, I really all right.
Let's talk Jets Patriots shallowity Thursday night football game.
Speaker 4: Your New York Jets, Joe ran Airey, who have won
back to back games.
Speaker 1: As a matter of they won a game last week
with fifty seven yards passing against the Cleveland Browns, but
they had two special teams touchdowns.
Speaker 3: Art.
Speaker 1: Does anyone come up to you and said I would
like to put my hard earned money on the New
York Jets tonight because it doesn't look like that and
many people are doing that.
Speaker 3: No they're not.
Speaker 2: I mean, we open this game ten, quickly got to eleven.
We're now twelve and a half you've seen thirteen's out there.
Total was forty five, now forty three. Man, it feels
like a really inflated number. I know New England's really
good short week though in the division. I know New
England's at home, but man, you're talking twelve and a
half thirteen. I think if we hit thirteen, which we
have yet to do, I think we might see a
little bit of jet money. But this is also one
of these stinkers of a game on a Thursday where
you're not really seeing a ton of action. We've just
kind of been moving with the market on this number.
Speaker 3: Here's a random question. Do we have any idea who
the hell's playing quarterbacks for the chance tonight? I know
Aaron Glady's all, so it's a secretive there because you know,
I don't want to give too much away. I guess
what a two win football team? But BP, have you
heard anybody like who is it? Is it?
Speaker 1: That was a bizarre press conference that I think a
lot of people were scratching their heads, you know, as
disgusting as it may be, though, I'm kind of with
Art that this is probably dogg or pass.
Speaker 4: I mean, what is the peak of the market on
this New England team.
Speaker 1: One of the stories of the NFL this year, guys
that all these teams with good records that we maybe
didn't expect that good records have really taken advantage of
favorable schedules. New England certainly has. This is their first
time as a double digit favorite in four years, So
guys bet carefully there. I know the Jets aren't good,
but you know, they've won back to back games and
at some point New England has to kind of have
a letdown spot.
Speaker 4: I think, what.
Speaker 3: Do you see in art any any props or or
I don't even know who to consider in the touchdown
market for the Jet I mean Breeze Hall, but I
mean the whole world is going to be on Breeze Hall,
right Any special teams props we should take with the
Jets because that seems to be the only way that
can get points here hard. I mean, honestly, it's a
very strange game from the jet side, is it not?
Speaker 2: It is, And it's a strange prop market where we've
been very careful on jet props, like we don't have
any quarterback props up right now, because you know, we
also have to keep in mind of our house rules
and things like that. Eventually we will get some up,
but we just don't want to put things up and
have to do refunds and all the type of nonsense
you have to go through. But when you look at
New England side of it, there's been some love for
the running back Henderson. It looks like he's basically the
only guy going. Both his backups are done. There's like
a four string guy behind him. So he has a
really high number seventy five and a half. I mean,
I know he broke out last week, but I mean
this is a guy who was barely playing, so that
number is really really high up there. And he's basically
minus two dollars just scoring any time touchdown. So I mean,
that's a nuts number out there. It's crazy.
Speaker 3: It really is. Here VP, are you playing this game?
You got to that for us? Here? Now would be
the time.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, I'd like to get This is gonna be
my contribution to the parlay of the day. And Joe,
I noticed you ripped me after getting my leg of
the parlay wrong on Monday, which is fine.
Speaker 4: We always break balls in the show. That's okay. I'm
a big boy. I could take it.
Speaker 1: But I do notice, and you guys can all follow
him by the way at Ryan Power underscore wins on Twitter. Joe,
you know I don't stop looking at my notifications here.
I don't see any congratulatory tweets for the times I
came out and got my leg of the parley?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 4: Did I miss those? Or did you forget the Did
you schedule the tweet and forget to send it?
Speaker 3: No, I have no idea when you can't just make
shit up and speal it out and the expect everyone
to buy it. I mean, already hearing this, he's actually
acting leg He's come on here and given out winners.
Stop at BP. We all know better than that. Or
should I call you Lars? I'm not sure at this point. Really,
I feel like I'm talking to the same person. But BP,
it's always a pleasure seeing it. You have a best
bet on this game, then you're gonna give me.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's Art who's leaving suit, You're staying with, I'm
staying with for the direction of the show. Look, God
much your chagrin, Joe, I'm going pres ball over sixteen
and a half receiving yards. Look, he had forty two
last week. Did it all come on one catch, Yes, did
justin Field's only a fifteen additional yards passing the rest
of the game. Yes, However, Hall's gone over this number
in five of nine games a season. In fact, all
five games he went over, he had at least thirty
yards receiving. I expect Hall to be used one of
the passing game tonight. Why the Patriots have the number
one run defense in the league. Garrett Wilson, the Jets
leading receiver, He's out, so haul over fifteen and a
half young receiving yards is my leg of the parlay.
Speaker 4: Joe Ranieri, j E. T s Jets, Jets, Jets.
Speaker 3: All right, Art, I think we have to make an
administrative decision. This will immediately be the round robin of
the day because I feel like we're already all in one,
so ahead, let's salvage it here with a couple of winners.
Are what are you going with here? Especially since oh,
I don't know the parlay of the day was supposed
to be college football. Put Lawrence Pressman back up there, please,
because it's just exactly the same. There he is, yes,
there he is, all.
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, I need an email on the show.
Speaker 3: What I Yeah, reading it. Yeah, it's worse than mass
So from now on you will be Lawrence Presman. Check
your messages. It's college football or kick us off if
you could here, please before I throw them.
Speaker 2: Well, listen, if we're gonna just do a daily one,
I'll throw you a daily one because that's apparently what
we're gonna do. I'm gonna give I'm gonna give you
the Red Wings. Red Wings are short home favorite against
the Ducks. Give me the Red Wings minus one.
Speaker 3: Red Wings here. You see that, You see what you started.
You don't have any like World Cup qualifying futures or
anything you want to throw out there.
Speaker 4: Joe, I would tell you if I did.
Speaker 3: Joe, Okay, that's great, So thank you so well here
for that. Yeah, that's not good. I'll tell you what
I am gonna go with here tonight, and I think
I'll go to the Association Art. What do you think
seems like a good place to head to here tonight?
Give me the over with Toronto and the Calves here.
I think it was two thirty eight and a half
two thirty nine somewhere in that ballpark. I think points
are coming, especially since half the Calves team didn't play
last night Miami. But they're back home here tonight taking
on the Raptors. And I'm pretty sure they're all playing
there here tonight. So there you go. There's your parlay
of today. Way to screw it up, pres, No, I'm
Brian Power six and one, six and one.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's great art. Yeah, appreciate it. Art, Get out
of here, round robin it is, we'll see. We'll see
art again tomorrow. Way to go outstanding stuff.
Speaker 1: Use here, Joe. I did buy college football. I've got
that ready for the next segment.
Speaker 4: I didn't know that. I also had something. I thought,
Oh you thought.
Speaker 3: See that's the problem right there, as you thought. And yeah, no,
no you don't think. I don't think, pres Do not think, Okay,
that's what you are from now on. Do not think
as we lost art already, Thank goodness, all.
Speaker 4: Right, I think he ran away.
Speaker 3: Do you know what happens after this?
Speaker 4: I believe it's time for some business.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we yes, we throw up press up and his
Wayne Newton outfit.
Speaker 3: Oh I like that, but I don't even know if
we have that again. Oh we don't. Here it is.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I thought this was a regular
part of the program. Well, guys, despite what Joe Ranire
has been telling you over the last several minutes, we've
been doing quite well in college football this month. As
a matter of fact, now number one at wager talk
dot com in college football this month n eighty two percent. Joe,
I know that you'll try to come up with something
to say opposite, but I do know the Mid American
Conference very well. I am a proud graduate of the
Mid American Conference. Two for two already this week in
college football, we had Western Michigan on Tuesday, Thanks for
all who joined me on as part of five dollars Tuesday.
Then we had a no sweat winner. You wish they
could all be this easy, Central Michigan. I grabbed the
minus one twenty on the money line. They covered every
number against what I thought was a fraudulent Buffalo team.
So it's nine and two in college football.
Speaker 4: Start them up.
Speaker 1: My Friday best bet is already up. We're going to
get the Saturday plays up later today as well as
for Thursday. We'll have a little bit of an all
sports combo WT dot Buzz slash BP.
Speaker 4: Don't forget ten days.
Speaker 1: The next ten days you can get them for just
ninety nine dollars.
Speaker 3: Impressive number one. And what did you say is, oh,
that's right, Akron. I should have known. I should have known.
You love your Akron. What are they zips as they
are the silt zip? Yeah, they're zilts. Yes, that's great.
I didn't even know they still played football. All right,
we should remind everyone here, or at least let him
know at this particular point, the pretty good deal here.
You guys know about the Weekend Warrior for football, right
we'll let me introduce you to the full court press
here that is happening for basketball, both NBA and college basketball.
Right now, guys, you can get a three day all
access pass same forty nine dollars that'll give you access
to all five percent best bets on anything on the hardwood,
college or NBA. It's a great opportunity to hop on
board because much like Brian was making up how he
is number one? Did you say, BP, I think number
one in college in the max football. I'm not even
sure that's there.
Speaker 4: But when they proud of that, when you start calling,
I am just.
Speaker 3: Saying, listen, no, you're doing better than me, so I'm
good to go. However, I am doing pretty well in
the hardwood, as I believe that BP number one in
the NBA, number one in college basketball so far, so
now would be a good time to take advantage of
that forty nine dollars three day all access full court pass. BP.
Are you dabbling in the hardwood yet? BP or I
have not yet made an.
Speaker 1: NBA play, But of course you can't, and we're going
to talk college basketball here at least coming to a rundown.
You can catch me every day Monday through Friday with
your good friends. Two more of your good friends, Adam
Jugger and Rob Venal Port Press. We go an hour
every day talking college oops. I will have a college
oops play for Thursday on a game we did not
talk about on that show.
Speaker 3: Really, Oh interesting night in college guys. Got to check
that out for sure. That Love Tregg Love Veno. It's
a good show. It's still going on. In fact, I
don't even think they realized that BP left. So but
the good news is that we've got college football to
talk about as well as basketball. So let's get to
it here if we can, and somebody please help me.
Speaker 1: All right now, I'm gonna talk about some college football, Joe.
If I've got this from another one now and I
can read on the right side of the screen.
Speaker 4: Start that clock going two minutes.
Speaker 1: Guys, I've got two college football plays on Saturday breakdown
for you. We're gonna start in a weird spot in
the sun Belt, Coastal Carolina and Georgia Southern. This Coastal
Carolina voodoo needs to end, guys, and I think it
does this Saturday in States bro shoutout to the Allman
Brothers band. I'm going Georgia Southern minus two and a
half six pm Eastern on ESPN plus. Georgia Southern was
a nice winner for me last Thursday plus five and
a half against another fraud Sun Belt team, app State.
The result for US never really endoubt. Georgia Southern jumped
out to a nineteen to nothing lead, Joe, and it
was a wire to wire cover ended up winning out Right.
The Eagles did twenty five to twenty three. That offense
has scored twenty four point six of the last seven games. Meanwhile,
Coastal they've come back from the depths to win and
cover four in a row, three straight forty plus point efforts.
Re Outright wins his underdogs. I'm just not buying it, though,
time to sell high on a Chanta Clear's team that
has not been favored over a single f that had
not been favored over a single FBS opponent prior to
last week.
Speaker 4: Eventually the market will catch up.
Speaker 1: It always does fade the Chanta Clears as short road
favorites on Saturday. Now, let's take we go from a
short home favorite to a big underdog on the road.
UCF Texas Tech. I get it, guys, Texas Tech is
really good. I've been saying it for a while now,
and they showed it again last week by easily defeating
previously undefeated BYU. The fact the Red Raiders Joe went
off close to a two touchdown favor in that game
tells you all about the kind of respect odds makers
have for them. Safe to say text, the clearly the
best team in the Big twelve, and I think they're
well on their way to a college football playoff appearance.
But this game against UCF three thirty Eastern on Fox,
it feels like a classic letdown spot to me. Now,
Tavian Jackson, the UCF quarterback, he's hurt, He's dealing with
an injury.
Speaker 4: Is that ideal?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: But this surprised me.
Speaker 1: UCF defense top thirty nationally in both yards and points
allowed Morton for Texas Tech. Don't forget he's not one
hundred percent either. This is too many points to be
laying after a big win with a bye week on deck.
UCF plus twenty four, don't forget. If you want more
college football, not only does Joe have a couple of
plays coming up for you, but you can catch me
live Thursday, one pm Eastern with Ross Benjamin and Ralph
Michaels on the Blitz.
Speaker 3: All right, good stuff, I guess it's my turn now,
so let's let's go. All right, college football play today.
I got two minutes here, and already you're talking over them,
all right, So let us start with a team that
has got to be pretty pissed off right now, given
the fact that the NCAA came down with the death penalty.
Not really actually, they eliminated fourteen wins in their illustrious
you know history, that being Michigan State. Because of course,
who doesn't like the quick Lane Bowl win that they
had a few years ago. It doesn't happen. But they
are taking on Penn States and Michigan State and Penn
State have now I believe, lost six straight games. But
Penn State terrible spot here of the season. I mean
credit to them for fighting almost pulling off the upset,
but yeah, came up just a little bit shorts. And now,
of course they got to take on a Michigan State
team that has actually played better as up late here
and I think them getting seven I think now seven
and a half is probably a little bit too much.
I don't expect Penn State to show off a showout
in any way, shape or for Michigan State is home,
so that is the way I am going to look
at that one, and I'm gonna throw another game out there.
Art just talked about it as well, and this one
is gonna be Michigan at Northwestern. Take a look at
the total in this one. Because it is being played
at Wrigley Fields. There are absolutely gonna be more Michigan
fans there the Northwestern fans in that area. I know
there's a huge Michigan alumni base uh in Chicago there.
And also the weather doesn't looking it's going to be
cooperating all that much. Given the fact that Michigan is
the one who can run the ball and Northwestern can't.
This is probably going to be a much lower scoring
game than people think. I think the under is the
way to look with Michigan and Northwestern Michigan getting a
ton of money here. But I just don't see how
the passing in that wind and that weather is going
to work. I think it's a rock fight there BP.
So that's where I'm going, you know, m Yeah.
Speaker 4: You're going to confuse the people, Joe, what do you mean?
Speaker 1: There may be some people tuning into the program for
the first time finding just recently discovering wager talk and
you know, as you all know, my name is Brian Power.
Today it was labeled as Lord's President for the pres
the normal host here show ever and nobody name is
nobody cares. That is certainly not my name, And I
think people do care. If you care, please show us
by smashing that like button.
Speaker 4: Remember to do that.
Speaker 1: Yes, we appreciate the support. I think identity is going
to be our word of the day here. Joe on
the program, you can't seem to get mine right. No,
I will tell you.
Speaker 3: Got that right. That's correct.
Speaker 4: You you got something right.
Speaker 1: Talking about the big alumni base Michigan has in Chicago.
Remember about twenty years ago I watched a Michigan game
in a Michigan bar in the city of Chicago.
Speaker 3: Is a fun time again.
Speaker 4: I can't remember too much about it.
Speaker 3: Okay, there we go. Can we please move on to
the college basketball rundown? Thank you, mister en Cares, you're up.
Speaker 1: And oh I'm up. Okay, give me that two minutes, Joe. Okay, Well,
here's here's what a lot of people care about. Damn
you for doing Alabama the headliner tonight in college basketball
number two versus number eight, seven pm Eastern on ESPN two.
Purdue drops from number one to number two in the
rankings because they beat Oakland by only ten points last
time out. That's an Oakland team that the new number
one team Houston just beat last night by thirty three.
So now that win looks a little worse than it
even did at the time. Truth be told, I think
Purdue and Bama coming to this game both slightly overrated.
I'm a little concerned with the Purdue defense though. They
allowed one point one points per possession and a fifty
two percent shooting on two point attempt to get to Oakland.
Speaker 4: Not good when.
Speaker 1: Getting ready to face a team like Alabama. Joe, you
know that Alabama last time out they put up one
hundred and two points on Saint John's and that was
while going eleven of thirty five from three point range.
Imagine if they had shot the three well, even though
it's a home game against the number two team in
the country, A little potential I think for a flat
spot for the Crimson tight after beating Saint John's, though
Trey Kaufman read probably back for Purdue. I think the
keys gonna be whether or not the boiler Makers can
slow this game down. It's hard to do on the road,
but at won seventy five and a half, I think
this tone has gotten too high. Give me the under
some other games to consider. Pitt in WVU market likes
the under here. I can incur with that. I know
Pitts scored at least seventy four and all three games
a season, but WU coached by Ross Hodge, They're playing defense,
they're rebounding, they're still in the pace down. I would
take the under there, Green Bay and Saint Thomas. I'm
never going to pass up an opportunity to rip on
Doug Gottlieb. I think Green Bay who was just horrible defensively.
They were terrible defensively last year, terrible defensively this year.
They're not going to get stops. Saint Thomas over its
team total of eighty two and a half is how
to look there. And then Loyola Chicago, Wichita State, Wichita State.
I think it would be the side I would look
at here. Loyle is off to a horrible start. They
failed to cover three games.
Speaker 4: They lost a Mercy Hurst College.
Speaker 3: That's not good.
Speaker 1: And if you want more college basketball, like I said earlier,
full court press me Adam Trigger and Rob Veno ten
am Eastern Monday through Friday every day.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's go to the NBA if we could here
as we only have a light card three games and
it's going to start like we mentioned earlier with the
Cleveland Cavaliers fresh off the split here with that two
game out of three days set in Miami. They did
win last night, but they didn't play anybody the game
the night off. Donovan, Mitchell and Mobley and company. Chances aren't.
They'll be back on the court here tonight taking on
the Raptors, who are also playing some pretty darn good
basketball right now. They didn't have a game last night,
but this is now I think the third game in
four nights for the Cavs, hence why they sat a
lot of guys down yesterday. But the reality is, listen,
Raptors have been pretty good here. Brandon Ingram a hell
of an addition for the Toronto Raptors. I'm expecting a
lot of points in this game. I do think seven
and a half might be a little extreme in this one,
but it should be one of the more entertaining games here.
And then you head out west. Here we got a
couple of other games, including the Phoenix Suns at home
taking on the Indiana Pacers, who just can't seem to
get healthy. But Phoenix my good winners up what six
of their last seven they have not met a three
point shot they didn't like to take nor make for
that matter, they made fourteen of them last night from
three point range in that or rather against Dallas on Wednesday,
and then of course they handled their business rather easily
last night as well. So we've got a couple of
teams here going in complete opposite directions. That's the Pacers,
who can't trust them to score enough. I think to
get this thing up and over. But you can count
on the Phoenix Suns. We're only laying four and a half,
and yes, the second of a back to back, but
I like the direction they're heading. And a team that
I had last night, Atlanta Hawks taking on the Utah
Jazz second of a back to back for Atlanta, I
don't care. I still like them here tonight. I think
they're on the roll. So the Hawks for me in
that one.
Speaker 4: BP, it was well done, Joe. I thought that was excellent.
Speaker 3: Oh that was good you thank you very much.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you really do a good job with that rundown,
you know.
Speaker 3: Yea really, Yeah, that's it got that. It's good stuff.
I know exactly where we're heading. It's good stuff. I'm
not making yes games up.
Speaker 1: Well no, I mean all the games I talked about
are in fact happening. It's just yes, I put them
in the wrong spot on the show. I apologize.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll be better next And I don't know if
I'm gonna be on the show to with you tomorrow.
Speaker 1: By the way, I think pres will message me sometime
in the middle of the night and say can you
do the show?
Speaker 4: And I'll say, okay, why not.
Speaker 3: Well, he's uh, why are you here today? Exactly? I'm
trying to figure that one out. Was that like, is
he like at the over sixty five table? Now? Is that?
Speaker 4: What is like he's like my or whatever?
Speaker 1: That is?
Speaker 3: Mind all right, because yes he's probably laid for a
canasta game. All right, that's it. I'm done with you.
Everything else could that'll be me? That's great, planned to
hear it, all right, say goodbody to folks there by, Pete,
good time. We gotta be tomorrow. Oh yes, yeah, don't forget.
Please subscribe please, oh my god,
