Speaker 1: All right, Welcome in everybody. It is Thursday. You know
what that means. It's all mid majors. It's my favorite
day of the week. And I come in still feeling
pretty good. I had one play again yesterday.
Speaker 2: It was Rickman.
Speaker 1: It was my five percent play, and they battled back
from what was a horrific start almost win the game
and cover the number.
Speaker 2: So we keep it going with it. I think that's
seven in a row for me now.
Speaker 1: But Rob, you know, I said, you know, when I
was here losing in November and December, you couldn't lose.
I said there would be a point in time where
I get my sort of uptick, and I think I'm
I think I'm in the midst of that right now.
Speaker 2: Feels kind of good.
Speaker 3: It's a long season, howe. Basketball is a long season.
Speaker 2: March is long, Rob, March is long, and we're not
even to March yet.
Speaker 3: You know, like those ups and downs are to be expected.
I apologized to the Parlay crowd yesterday. I went out
of my lane try to side with Temple. BP came through.
You came through Temple, did not you ab even shorthanded
got there last night. So I do apologized to the parlor.
We could have had another three team er.
Speaker 1: I'll make you feel better about that. Rob, I'll make
you feel better about that. I know you were between
BYU team total under and what the play that you've
picked with Temple. Had you went your normal route with
BYU team total under the play, I would have picked
with a loss. So we were we were losing the
parlay either way. It was you didn't cost us to
parlay by not using that team total, which we talked
about as our future game yesterday, and that got got
there kind of easily as we both expected. B YU
nowhere near that seventy and a half seventy five and
a half number.
Speaker 2: I think they finished in the sixties.
Speaker 3: Yeah, interesting too, Adam. Before we hit on South Florida Memphis.
That as much as we said yesterday about the bans
To being targeted, has been targeted all season long, obviously,
but now without Richie Saunders, it almost the other. The
other coaching strategy almost to that is let the bands
to have his and see who else can step up.
And last night AJ went crazy and there was nobody
else to help out. He had more than fifty percent
of their points I think last night, so BYU Texas
Tech JT Top and I mean the Big twelve has
taken some rough, rough hits to top personnel over the
course of the last couple of days. And I'll just
throw one more gripe out there. Didn't help me any
Last night when Darren Peterson decides to bench himself in
the second half, Yeah, looking at a team total of
eighty two and a half over they get to eighty one,
but he decides he's only going to play three minutes.
Bill self kind of scratching his head, wondering why the
guy doesn't want to play. But down the road here
with Darren Peterson, Adam, we have to take it to consideration,
things that we should not have to take into consideration.
And oh yeah, last thing because it's on my mind.
Darius A.
Speaker 2: Cuff Junior forty nine points, rob incredible.
Speaker 3: What a performance? What a performance?
Speaker 1: Yeah, So you know, we we you know, we griped
about Temple right and it's like game probably could have
went either way. UAB made a couple more plays down
the stretch, and I feel like that's been the.
Speaker 2: Story in the American this year. Now our matchup tonight,
like the one thing I thought that the one thing
I could say about this conference that does not surprise
me is South Florida being at the top. That doesn't
surprise me.
Speaker 1: I figured South Florida that was my pick to win
this league coming into this year. The surprising thing, though,
I think is is Memphis not being right there with them.
I think Memphis probably thought that this was at minimum
a two.
Speaker 2: Horse race in this league.
Speaker 1: You know, there's obviously some other team that going into
the season you would have thought been in would be
in the mix. But man, Rob, I just think back
to the way Memphis scheduled kind of in the non
conference scheduling that game out in Logan, Utah over the weekend.
That was clearly like a game that was set up
to be like, hey, we deserve it at large, obviously
if they could have won that game. But Rob, do
you think Memphis sort of punted on that game over
the weekend, maybe sort of looking ahead to this game
because at this point it's really about league games and
winning the American Tournament. I don't know that Memphis gets
into the tournament otherwise, so this game would certainly help.
How are you seeing Memphis South Florida. Do the Tigers
have a chance tonight.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's got to be the viewpoint at this point
in time, right, Adham. I don't know that they punted
on that game in logan as much as they just
got blitzed by Utah's the end of first half. Go
back watch the last two and a half minutes of
the first half and then the way the second half started,
and Utah State just was an absolute title wave against Memphis.
Memphis really had no prayer of matching points with them,
And then, of course we talked about it. At the end,
Utah State piled on with the last couple of buckets,
obviously for obvious reasons. Right, They're trying to get something
on their resume, and Penny probably still carries a little
bit of that bitter taste into this game. Not that
it's pointed directly at South Florida, but certainly they want
to get back on the floor here. So to your point,
Memphis winning the American is about the only route at
this point in time. South Florida's played better as of late,
really have, especially on the defensive end. I think they've
gone three straight unders at this point in time, even
though there's still scoring points. I don't know how long
that could continue, I'd expect Memphis to have a pretty
good offensive night. Here you've got two teams that want
to get up and down. There were a lot of
Sincere Parker forces the other night against Utahs. They in
an attempt to come back. I mean, when you get behind,
you try to do too much. But that trio of Bradshaw,
McDaniel and Parker, they still match up pretty well with
South Florida. South Florida probably to me, has a little
bit more depth and probably are a little bit better
as they still get accustomed to the style of play.
But I think they're a little bit better at it
dan Memphis is at this point in time. Now, Memphis
has been a good defensive team inside the conference number
one defensive efficiency team. But I mentioned off the top
that South Florida has improved their defense a little bit too.
That game the other day. Here's one thing that I
do worry about with South Florida is did the Florida
Atlantic game take a little bit out of them? Boy?
That was a tough game over time, back and forth.
That game could have went either way. South Florida gutted
it out. Showed little something in that contest for me
in this one. It's been hit and been hit hard.
But I throw understand people who looked at one fifty
three for a total in this game and said, oh
my god, you know I have to get to the
window fast. They did. It's now up to one fifty nine.
Could I see both teams getting into the eighties here? Maybe? However,
the counter to that would be, this is a crunch
time game at the end of February, and you would
expect a little bit, not a little bit. You would
expect maximum defensive effort to show up here despite the pace.
So now getting to one sixty becomes a little bit
more difficult. Value may be gone out of that number.
At this point in time. You got to push from
eight to eight and a half. Adam, I don't know.
I think South Florida is the better team, but eight
and a half better, I'm not so sure, especially when
I add in the extenuating factors of what happened in Logan.
Memphis wanted to get back out on the floor, Memphis
being in sense of urgency mode to win the American
et cetera, et cetera. Eight and a half seems a
little large, and we're totally is concerned I just feel
like one nine. Maybe they've taken all the air out
of that number right now.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have some thoughts here.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is certainly not my not what This
wasn't a feature game pick because of like crazy opinions.
It's a feature game because it's on ESPN two and
it's one of the only sort of like you know,
national TV like Marquee type games tonight. But these two
teams are at the top of this league, and this
is one of the bigger leagues in action, so I.
Speaker 2: Suppose it qualifies. I'll comment on something you said, but
first I'll go to Bayou in the chat. Penny as
a dog is never a bad option, yeah, historically, but
he hasn't been as good as a dog this year.
You know, some of that some of that Penny is
nails as a dog stuff has has been sort of
not the case this year. He has not been like
just lights out in the underdog world. Now, I don't
know that I like you.
Speaker 1: I don't know that I want to go against Memphis
and lay the points with you know, with the last
two I guess the way the last two games have gone.
But I referenced on this show, I thought the UAB
game coming after the two Lane loss, was the game
that was really gonna sort of like determine which way
Memphis was gonna go the rest of the way. They
were either gonna respond to that loss to TWU Lane
and get a win and get back into the mix,
or this was gonna be the type of year where
it's just like, not very good and we'll show up
at the American Tournament and see if we can get
a get a run going. They knocked off UAB, they
went on the road, won that game in Birmingham. I
believe they actually ended up being a slight underdog. Uh yeah,
they were a slight underdog there, maybe like a point
a point and a half.
Speaker 2: They turn around blow out Charlotte.
Speaker 1: But I gotta be honest, Rob, the weekend or the
road trip thus far was pretty disappointing. I thought they
would have given a better effort at North Texas. That
is not a very good North Texas team in my opinion.
Speaker 2: They lose that game and then just lifeless Logan give
up ninety nine points. You know, just.
Speaker 1: That to me right there is like a pretty big concern.
Now you're on your third road game in a week
and you know that that to me is concerning on
the Memphis side.
Speaker 2: As far South Florida.
Speaker 1: What I'll say about the South Florida defense, you know,
they almost have kind of a defensive coordinator of sorts.
So they hired Tobin Anderson, who was the head coach
at Barley Dickinson. He was the head coach at IONA.
Many mac people feel like he kind of got a
raw deal getting let go by Iona after last year,
and so Brian Hodgson hired him to coach their defense.
And so I wonder if you know, there was a
little bit of a period of time where they were
trying to adjust to almost like having a defensive coordinator
of sorts. But Rob, I mean, it doesn't surprise me
that they're playing better defense now. They literally hired a
coach just to coach defense, and he's it's a good coach.
So those are things that make me kind of like
the South Florida side, But I just don't know that
I can get there at the current number.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting with them, Adam. The better the defense
has been, the offense hasn't been great from a shooting perspective.
I mean, they've got three wins in a row here
shoot forty one point seven from the floor, forty two
point three from the floor, forty two point five from
the floor. Those are not numbers of a stellar offensive team.
I mean they're scoring right now more due to pace
and some free throws than anything else. They're three point percentages.
The last two games before Floord Atlantic were horrendous, but
as I mentioned, they got to the free throw line
of those two, But the defensive numbers outstanding here. And
I said this at the start of the season, and
it's funny it's three months later and it's coming back
to mind here as I look at Memphis, and I
don't know that Doug McDaniel has been that big of
a help to this team. I said, off the top,
I thought that their trio at the top of Parker, McDaniel,
Bradshaw a matchup pretty well as far as threesomes go.
But the playoff Doug McDaniel, I thought could have been
a lot better this year hasn't been. I don't know,
his offensive contribution to the team hasn't been what I
thought it would have been. And Memphis, again, I think
I've talked about this before too. They're so hard for
me to handicap because of the variants in how they
play on the offensive side, Like their game totals will
stray from high one thirties to one sixties, mid one sixties.
And you're wondering why is there such variants constantly with Memphis.
I think it's because they just aren't getting the major
contributions that they expected in this game. Maybe defense can
carry them as eight and a half just looks large
with South Florida here. To me, I haven't played the game,
just my thoughts again, Like you said, it's our featured
game because it is what it is. We probably could
have gone William and Mary Campbell. We could have gone
out west to the Big West. We could have gone
a lot of places for better games. But I could
see a little bit of a Memphis play here plus
the eight and a half.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, listen, it wouldn't surprise me if this
game ends up being tighter than like their lat right,
like Memphis coming in didn't really look good in their
last two games, it wouldn't at all surprise me if
they show up national TV. I do feel like that's
a way that Penny has been able to sort of
rally his teams in the underdog role, like being in
that sort of national TV spot first place team in
the league. So, yeah, you're not gonna see me lay
eight and a half here with South Florida. I might
punch back on that over I kind of feel like
this is gonna be a little bit of a battle,
and just going back to what you said the South
Florida defense being better of late, knowing that they they
brought in Tobin to make the defense better and they
really weren't good early in the year, and I think
that's probably because he probably had to tear it down
and rebuild it to an extent right to make to
get the defense playing the way that they would want
their defense to play.
Speaker 2: And I think you're seeing the payoff of that right now.
Speaker 1: So maybe Memphis team total under game under I can't
argue with eight and a half.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be on the other side.
Speaker 1: But ultimately not a game I'm gonna play, but very
interesting game and that's a national TV game tonight.
Speaker 3: Two things to consider real quick before we move on.
I always point out that coaches like to correct what
went wrong. Giving up ninety nine points to Utah State
defense has to be the focus of Memphis here tonight
against this team. And the second thing I'll bring up
is that it's the first year under Brian Hodgson, and
Memphis and USF haven't played yet. It's this late in
the year and they haven't played each other, so it's
the first time Memphis is seeing them in this particular style.
I guess you do have twenty some you know, roles
of game tape to go through, but until on the
floor against it, it's a little bit different. So there's
a lot of variables in this one, Adam, where we
could counter argue or counter debate back and forth out
who to play, whether it's over under. But I think
I'm trying to enhance the point about under. At this price,
now one sixty is gonna be it becomes difficult to
get to in a game with this amount of meaning,
especially for the underdog side. It's a lot of meaning
here for Memphis.
Speaker 1: All right, let's say, Garth in the chat, thank you
for the donation. Much appreciated. Garth says, let's talk a
little a Sunball Central Arkansas and Stetson. You gotta love that,
Rob Bino about Thursdays like those are the types of
games that are basically the I mean, that is what
Thursday's slate is outside of you know, they didn't even
try to slip up like a random Big Ten game.
Every once in a while, the Big Ten will slip
when in on a Thursday, and it'll be like Ten
State playing you know, Rutgers or something like that, and
it just gets lost in the shuffle.
Speaker 2: Not even that today, I don't I don't.
Speaker 1: Think there's a single power sort of quote unquote power
conference league playing tonight, which uh, which is great. It
gives the the mid majors consistently get pushed in the
you know, push to the back in college basketball these days,
and so it kind of gives it. It's a full
mid major slate. This one, I believe this is in DeLand, Florida.
I've never been there, but that is where Stetson University
is located. And this is this, of course, is not
your Stetson team of a couple of years ago that
made their first NCAA tournament. They have you know, kind
of lost the players that were on that team. I
can't remember if it's the same coach or not, but
they're a pretty big home dog here.
Speaker 2: Garth says.
Speaker 1: He leans central Arkansas laying eight and a half on
the road. Central Arkansas has been a lot better than
I expected them to be this year. I'll say that
they now his name is going to escape me here.
They ended of getting a player back. I think that was.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So Cameron Hunter last year was hurt or was
I think he was hurt for most of the season
or he transferred and didn't play. So like him coming
back to this.
Speaker 1: Team was very intriguing to me because back in twenty
twenty two he was one of the top scorers in
this league and he's been that this year for Central
Arkansas eighteen point eight points per game, a big time
game changer, and so he is the reason that, in
my opinion, that this team is as good as they are.
Now they're starting to creep into territory that I did
not think they could get to. Okay, and that's where
I'm going to kind of start the handicap here, because
the clear better of these.
Speaker 2: Two teams rob is Central Arkansas. No one is going
to debate that.
Speaker 1: But now you're starting to get to a point where
they have a shot to win this league, and that
was something that I did not see happening, and I
I am not the most tuned in a Sun guy,
so I'll I'll just say that this is the Atlantic
Sun tends to be a tiny bit of a blind
spot for me. We've had actually had luck kind of
playing against Florida Gulf Coast a couple of times this year.
Speaker 2: I think I was on to Austin Pe being really good.
Speaker 1: Maybe, like you know, ahead of the curve on that
I did not have Central Arkansas up there at twelve
and two with a shot to win the a Sun
regular season. So for me, let me see if I
have my number to this, Like I don't know if
the way I handicap games, if I could really lay
eight and a half on the road here, And I'm
just gonna double check, yes I do have.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I was. I was at seven point two.
That doesn't surprise me at all.
Speaker 1: I knew I would be a little bit off because
the market has really bumped Central Arkansas up at this point.
So my question for you is, Rob, is that bump
up valid in your opinion? And can you you get
there with Garth laying the eight and a half on
the road.
Speaker 3: Well, it's easy to see where Garth is coming from, right,
I mean Central Arkers all eate and went against the
spread last nine games. Six of those eight covers at
him by six and a half points or more beyond
the closing line, So not just barely covering, but destroying
this league. And first time around they destroyed this team
ninety three seventy three in that game. Central Arkansas put
it to him that game was at home. Now we
gotta go on the road. But Stetson hasn't been anything
to write home about on their own home floor. They're
in the midst of a bad run themselves. I think
two and six over their last eight, so I can
honestly understand where he's coming from. And then you add
to it, Stetson is off that tough Florida Gulf Coast
game the other day. I think it was a two
point game. Trying to look up the final seventy six
to seventy four final in that one. So you add
to it the taxing minutes that they play the fact
that they've already been blown out by this team. The
one thing you would worry about, I guess, in a
road game, if you're going to play the road favorite,
is perhaps you look beyond this team. You've beat them
by twenty already they're kind of floundering in the standings
down to the bottom half. But the fact that you
have a shot at the top spot, to me, kind
of negates that mindset. It's like, let's go, let's go
catch Austin p So for me, I could thoroughly understand it.
I'm trying to look and see if we've had any
real movement on this game here this morning, Central arkansaw
from eight. Yeah, you see a couple of nines out
there now, So of a money opinion with Garth as well.
Like I said, I can understand it simply from the
simple fact that whether it be home or on the road,
during this nine game span where they're eight and one,
they're destroying the closing line. It hasn't been closed. So
that sort of takes a little bit of the worry
of laying eight and a half out of it because
you have a team that's winning excessively against the point spread.
So yeah, I would have to agree with Garth here.
Stetson doesn't seem like a team that's gonna put up
a ton of fight. They certainly won't put it up
on the defensive end. And Central Arkansas, you know from
my memory, Adam of Central Arkansas as a team used
to be all offense with zero defense, and now Central
Arkansas is the second best defensive team in the league,
which is kind of a change perception wise for this squad.
So again I could understand where Garth is coming from
here with the road favorite.
Speaker 1: Yeah, over the weekend, Stetson probably played one of their
better games. They were right in the mix on the
road against Florida Gulf Coast end up losing by two.
I think they covered like as a double digit favorite
in that game. So if you kind of are are
looking at the angle like, hey, this is a bad
basketball team this year Stetson, that is they've you know,
kind of covered back to back games, and how likely
is it that they're just gonna string a bunch of
covers together because again, this isn't a very good team.
You can go that angle as well. For me, the number,
I just feel like you're paying a little bit of
a premium. But we we've talked about this on the
show in the past. League, as long as you're not
paying like an egregious premium, Like just because you're not
getting like insane number value does not mean you can't
bet something right, Like, I think I said, what did
I say? It was at seven point one? I lost
my spot. I think I said seven point it was
in there. I was in that that you know, between
seven and seven and a half. So yeah, like, I
think you can still acknowledge that the books are shading
a little bit towards Central Arkansas. But that's not like
you're gonna need more probably to talk yourself off of
playing them if you just love the matchup and think
this is gonna be a blowout. There's not a huge
difference between eight and a half and seven and a half.
And so if you dig get in at eight and
a half or eight or I think eight and a
half was like what was pretty much available, I'd be
fine with that. Where I would where I would start
to dip and where I would start to maybe just
pass is if you get to nine nine and a half,
I think that's too far away for me.
Speaker 2: That would be too far away from what I made
the number and where this opened where like this is
one where if I could have got eight or eight
and a half, nine or nine and a half is
too far away.
Speaker 1: But yeah, Garth, I can't these are teams. Yeah, this
opened eight, so this opened eight. So eight or eight
and a half is fine. But I do see the
nines popping. Wouldn't be surprised if it got to nine.
Speaker 2: And a half.
Speaker 1: These are the types of games on the extra board.
Not many people are gonna bet them. If you get
one sided action on Central Arkansas, you might be up
to ten. So I don't disagree with the eight and
a half, but these are just not two teams that
I've I've dealt with enough this year to be super
confident in playing that game. So so yeah, well, but yeah,
good luck if you play the Central Arkansas are the
the I know they're the Bears. I just don't know
if they're the Purple Bears, but rob they do play
on a purple and great turf.
Speaker 2: Football field that I do know that is true. Let's move,
all right.
Speaker 1: So I told Brian Power that he's here till future
to further notice, meaning like we're gonna let him join
the parlay until he loses one. Yesterday BP came through
with a Fordham team total under. It was another easy win.
So I hit him up right before a showtime. I said,
I said, you're you're giving out a pick, You're making
this a three team or two, you lose one, he said,
no problem, Trigger, I got one.
Speaker 2: I love today.
Speaker 1: So we're gonna go to Brian Power's Parlay League right now,
and we're gonna head to the Ohio Valley. So if
you thought, you know, if you thought the a Sun
was in the in the weeds, Rob Bino, let's go
to the Ohio Valley. Although these I think are two
of the higher profile teams in the valley, and I
fully agree with Brian's handicap here. So to hear again,
BP's given out games that he broke down on Morning Wager,
which is his show with Mark Zeno, so you can
get Brian Powers breakdown on this game. BP wants to
target Little Rock and so Little Rock tonight is going
to play UT Martin. He told me. He goes not
related to Drew Martin, is what he texted me on that,
which I thought was funny.
Speaker 2: The UT Martin Skyhawks the upstart team, one of the
upstart teams in all of college basketball. Rob, I gotta
be honest.
Speaker 1: I was like, I got both of these teams wrong
this year when UT Martin came out early in the season.
I think they may have knocked off UNLV. I think
they may have beat Bradley. They hung around with Florida
State and suddenly they were everyone's favorite team. And I
was like, oh boy, this is North Florida from last
year where they had a couple good results in November,
and they're going to fall back into the back, into
the middle of the pack in there in their low
major league, and we're gonna be able to make all
sorts of money playing against this team.
Speaker 2: I was wrong. They are twelve and five.
Speaker 1: They come into play with the tied for first with
Southeast Missouri State at the top of what has actually
been a very solid Ohio Valley Conference. I gotta say,
like I probably watched more Ohio Valley Conference basketball this
year than any year of my life to this point.
Tennessee State eleven and five, more Head eleven and five,
Edwardsville ten and six, Lindenwood ten and six, Like, all
these teams are very close. It's actually been an intriguing
league to watch. And then you've got Little Rock down
there at seven and nine. And this is where I say, well,
I kind of got it wrong. I thought Little Rock
was gonna win this league.
Speaker 2: I thought this was the best team in this league
coming into this year, and this is another one rob
where for three weeks now, I've been looking at every
single game I show value on Little Rock never fails
every single game, and then every single game I'm like,
don't do it right, just to you don't have to,
You don't have to, you don't have to fade.
Speaker 1: You know, they've lost four in a row. You don't
have to do it, they've lost five in a row.
You don't have to do it right. They actually ended
up losing six in a row before they finally beat
Western Illinois with you and I highlighted the other day.
Speaker 2: Is one of the worst teams in college basketball.
Speaker 1: I nearly played Little Rock over the weekend at Eastern Illinois,
thankfully talk myself off of it. They go in and
lose to what I don't think is a very good
Eastern Illinois team. Brian Power wants to take them here
against Tennessee Martin his reasoning, it's a horrible spot for
the Skyhawks. My numbers agree with him, but I just
have not been able to get to the window with
Little Rock, so I'm gonna let BP do it for me.
I don't think I'll be joining him for a client play,
but I'll certainly be rooting for him tonight. He wants
to take Little Rock with the points here plus two
and a half.
Speaker 2: My numbers love it.
Speaker 1: But I've been so wrong on this team that I can't,
like it's hard for me to like be super confident
about back this Little Rock team. So how do you
see his parlay leg Tennessee Martin, Little Rocket.
Speaker 2: If you want to talk about the total, you can
do that as well.
Speaker 3: Well, we said it yesterday. We're not going to argue
with Brian Power.
Speaker 2: Yeah, now you just do what he says at this.
Speaker 3: Whether I think there's something contradictory or not, this is
meaningless where his plays are concerned right now on FIREBP,
so we're going to support that play. There has been
one game to go off of between these two, and
it was a tough loss for Little Rock fifty five
fifty two on Martin's Tennessee Martin's home floor. So you
do have a revenge angle from a I don't want
to call that heartbreaking, but when you lose by three
as a dog on the other team's floor, you feel
like when you come home you have an opportunity to
knock them off now, so I'm sure that Little Rock
will come out here in the right mindset, fully focused, motivated,
all of that stuff. For Tennessee Martin, it is an
off of an overtime game and overtime win against Southeast Missouri,
as you mentioned those two at the top of the standing.
So again, we just talked about a game where the
minutes were taxing, exerting, and now you have to bounce
back and do it again, this time on the road.
There's not a lot of separation between days, right, I mean,
you just play Tuesday Wednesday off, make a road trip,
and try to apply the same effort that you applied
a day ago two days ago. So from a situational standpoint,
you can build a huge case for the little Rock side.
Martin has been great. Tennessee Martin has been great on
both ends of the floor. Number one offensive efficiency in
the Ohio Valley, number one in defensive efficiency in the
Ohio Valley. Hard to argue any of their statistical numbers.
So I don't think you're gonna make the argument from
a player fundamental type standpoint, but you can make it
from the situational angle, which it sounds like where BP
is coming from. Because you started off what he texted
you by saying, horrible spot for Tennessee Martin, and I
would agree, horrible spot for Tennessee Martin first time around.
It's not like either team lit it up offensively. So
you take a one oh seven game and try to
apply it today. Let's just really quick here. I'm looking
at the total's been bumped up to one thirty five,
So you know, are they basically thirty points better today
than they were the first time they met. I'm not sure.
It seems like this game again would take on a
defensive connotation. The one thing I worry when I play
totals with Little Rock is, again like Memphis, their variants,
they just don't shoot straight. They haven't shot straight for
a couple of years now, and they could be a
fifty three point team or they could be an eighty
three point team. So it's really hard for me to
tell total wise, So we'll stick with BP in the
situational spot here, plus the two and a half home
dog for Martin to u T Martin. This is a
difficult game to come back from off of that game
on Tuesday night. If this had been like a six
day four day break before they had to play this game,
maybe think a little different, but I'm with them here.
I think it's a good side.
Speaker 1: So I think the reason they played that game on
Tuesday is the Ohio Valley League had a bunch of
cancelations from the storm, like Tennessee, specifically Tennessee north Northwest
Arkansas like that that area. That area got hit pretty
good with that winner's ice storm. And so I think
that's the reason that that game was put on Tuesday.
I don't believe this league plays on Tuesday typically. So yeah,
you throw that extra game in there, and now they've
got to go to Little Rock.
Speaker 2: That's not going to be easy. The one thing I
will say from a matchup standpoint that supports the Little
Rock side. You know, this is a Little Rock defense.
They're gonna play zone and tungat that. Gat Keck I
just brutal. I'm bad enough.
Speaker 1: I can barely pronounce like normal names, and then I
get thrown that one. But anyway, gat Keck for a
little Rock six' nine kind of the anchor of that zone.
Speaker 2: That they want to.
Speaker 1: Play so what he's one of two things is gonna.
Happen he's a really good rim, Defender SO i think
you potentially Keep Tennessee martin a little bit off the,
rim which is kind of where they'd prefer to. Be
if they Force Tennessee martin into some, threes that's not
great for. Them three point percentage this Year Tennessee martin
three hundred and forty third in the. Country and the
thing is they will take them at. Times so here's
What Tennessee martins will. LIKE i noticed they did this
To Eastern illinois a little, bit and it's the way
they sort of ended up winning that. Game Tennessee martin's
not afraid to take the, three but then they're just.
Speaker 2: Going to crash the glass and try to get the.
Speaker 1: Rebound so that is like almost how they offset not
being the best three point shooting. Team they'll take the
shot and then they go and get the ball and
they're they're twelve in the country in, rebounding so they're
gonna have a pretty considerable rebounding edge.
Speaker 2: Here On Little.
Speaker 1: Rock but, STILL i don't know that that's the best
strategy against a team that can kind of defend that's
gonna play a little bit of his. Zone the rebounds
are going to be a little bit more random when
when you're talking about a, zone and so if they're
not shooting it well on the roll, road it's not
like they're going to get to the rim On Gap
tech like he is a very very good rim, defender
an elite shot. Blocker SO i kind of think this
all around could just be a Bad this could just
be a bad. SETUP i Think BP's, right it's just
a bad setup for Ut. Martin and even the first,
game which was At Tennessee, martin was still a three
point game played in the low, Fifties so you know
you're talking About i'm SURE, bp you liked it better at.
Three it's now two and a. Half but for the
sake of our, parlay two and a half will.
Speaker 2: Work So Little rock plus two and a half That's
Brian power's leg AND i will you know, what as
we talked about that, Game, Rob i'm officially Gonna i'll
officially co sign that that is one hundred percent HOW
i would play that. Game and the only REASON i
Think i'm not gonna play it is BECAUSE i have
a whole bunch of other plays for clients today AND
i just have been on the wrong side Of Little
rock luck this. YEAR i don't have their luck factor
in front of. ME i bet they're a pretty unlucky team.
Speaker 1: Too they've lost a couple of, games, right you know
that could have been wins THAT i think have flipped
their season one way or the. Other all, RIGHT i
am because BECAUSE i have so, Many i've already locked
in three client.
Speaker 2: PLAYS i may have a.
Speaker 1: Fourth it's kind of you, know the last two, Days,
Rob i've been pretty conservative WHERE i did have five,
percenters but it was my only play BECAUSE i kind
of like loved one thing and didn't really like anything.
Else but then you you Give trigg a slate of
all mid, Majors i'm GONNA i have no self, control
LIKE i, like like there's you, Know i'm gonna have more.
Angles So i've already locked in three things AND i
don't Think i'm, done which means if you want all of,
those get mine And rob's, package.
Speaker 2: The double THE Cbb. Firepower it's a three day, package
BUT i Get i've been given the ok from the home.
Speaker 1: Office if you Want rob AND i for the rest
of the, season that means every play Through March, madness
and you Know rob AND i are gonna cook on
those little. Tournaments N T cbi if they're playing a
pickup tournament at the why that they'll put a line
out On rob AND i have got you covered on,
Those so that's gonna get you myself And robin a
heavily discounted.
Speaker 2: GAT i don't know what it. IS i JUST i
just got the. Message it's.
Speaker 1: Discounted so if you Want rob AND i for the
rest of the way till they're cutting down the nets
one shining, moment you gotta email the, girls say something,
nice tell them they do such a great, job because
they really. Do and you can get myself And rob
the rest of the. Way all, Right i'm gonna give
out my leg of the, parlay and But i'm Gonna
i'm gonna give out my leg of the. Parley But
i'm gonna let you talk To garth about. Total So
garth says late night To jen. Play, yeah apologies in
advance for keeping you up till two in the morning
to see if the parlay wins or. Not But i'm
headed out to the. ISLAND i played Cal poly plus
twelve and a half for. CLIENTS i do think they've
taken a little bit of. Money so While i'm looking
at seeing what the market price is for, This, Rob
why don't you go first and talk To garth about the?
Total he, says first half under seventy seven and a.
Half first of, all great way to get yourself to
bed an hour. Earlier just play the first. Half then you,
know if you're on The East, coast you're out. Here
you're in and out by one. Am he. Said this
has been a trend for a few seasons. Now hawaii
first half home. Unders pretty good defensive. Team, rob what
do you Think hawaii Cal poly? Total talk To. GARTH
i think you're.
Speaker 3: Muted you're, RIGHT i was. MUTED a really good defensive
Team hawaii is and they just got trashed On saturday
night By House State northridge eighty four to. Sixty so
you know that going back home that eighty four is
going to be somewhat of a focus first time around
against Cal poly eighty six sixty. Six to hold Cal
poly to sixty six at Cal poly is an, accomplishment
to say the, Least poly shot terrible in that. Game
Hama musa two of thirteen from. Three you know the
top player, four top shooter for Cal, Poly so two
of thirteen is not going to get it. Done eight
of thirty two overall in that. Game first happened that
When garth was forty one to thirty, six seventy, seven
so right on the number you. POSTED i THINK i
saw in your in your comment that it was either
seventy seven or seventy seven and a half probably so just.
Under BUT i would have to somewhat agree with you
here simply based on the fact That, hawaii which is
kind of, rooted not even kind, of they are rooted in.
Defense after the eighty four points allowed To, NORTHRIDGE i
just feel like that's the focus to start the game.
Here let's go out. Here Cal poly is a, team
and believe, me made enough money on them playing overs this,
year all the way back to THE ucla game WHERE
i remember Sky clark At halftimes saying we had no
clue that Cal poly could come out and shoot threes
the way they. Did they can do that to you
if you're not aware of. Them but Obviously hawaii second
time around are very aware of. Them they were very
aware of them the first. Time LIKE i, say the
three point shooting was held to a minimum in that,
game SO i don't know why that would change Any
all that being, Said it's still climbed to seventy seven
first half in that, Game so the number that you
have here could be without the amount of wiggle room
that you would. Like BUT i would counter that real
quick by saying that game was in Cal. Poly this
one's In. Hawaii the trip to the island never. Easy
poly gets off to a slow start, here and perhaps
that's the way to. GO i would never discount Cal
poly's team total for a full forty, minutes but if
you're going to discount them at any, point it would
be in a situation like, this Where hawaii is coming
off a terrible defensive performance back on their home. Floor
seen the team once already this, year held the team
down once already this. Year so the only THING i
think in the liability column for what you posted their
first half total would be the fact that despite poor
shooting out of Cal, poly it's still got the seventy
seven the first. Time. AGAIN i think there's reasons to
believe that you could shave about four off of that
and maybe end up with a seventy. Three you could See,
hawaii you, know the money's come toward Cal poly a
little bit here in this, game and maybe Rightfully so
BECAUSE i don't know about, You, adam but asking giving
twelve or twelve and a half to Cal poly the
way they play offense a little bit, outrageous but specifically,
isolating zeroing in on first half. TOTAL i Think garth
may be onto something, here AND i didn't realized that
it had been a trend first half on the island
last couple of. Years so if you have that in
your back pocket as, well that's a good thing for
the play. Here so won't talk you. Off could only
try and help enhance With hopefully What i've said helps
a little bit. Here, yeah we'll see how it. Goes
it's gonna be probably a pretty good. GAME i think
Cal poly's got a little revenge on their side. Too
they didn't like getting beat by twenty on their home
floor against this.
Speaker 1: Team, yeah so that is that's where we'll start my
handicap for this. Game so What i'm gonna do SINCE
i got this, EARLY i got this out earlier this.
Morning twelve and a half for, clients that number is,
gone but there's still plenty of eleven and a half's out.
Speaker 2: There i'm gonna put a juice twelve in our.
Speaker 1: Parlay that, way and What i'm also gonna, Do i'm
gonna Add i'm gonna add minus one twenty juice to
both my leg And brian's. Leg so that, way even
if you have to go like as far as minus
one thirty to get the same, number you can do.
That so but for, clients we got twelve and a
half earlier this. Morning and here's my reasoning WHY i
like Cal poly in this. Spot SO i got like
four bullet points as to Why i'm gonna stay up
until all hours to see IF i can can win
a bet, tonight rob the first. ONE i didn't play
this the first time, around BUT i remember this game
the first time, around and the REASON i didn't bet
it was BECAUSE i missed the number cal polyly got
slammed in that.
Speaker 2: GAME i remember kind of.
Speaker 1: Being you, know just getting in too, late missed a
multi point, move not going to chase steam like that
ended up setting it, out and it turned out to
be the right move because they got.
Speaker 2: Crushed they lost by.
Speaker 1: Twenty they couldn't hit a shot eight Cal poly eight
for thirty two from, three and most of those misses
were out of the, gate so they kind of dug.
Themselves IF i remember, correctly they dug themselves a hole
that they couldn't get out, of and then they and
then they started to hit a few threes in the Second,
Oh i'm, Sorry, NO i was thinking of a different
Cal poly. Game this one was close in the first,
half and then they went ice cold in the second.
Half couldn't couldn't hit a three in the second. Half
AND i think that's actually off of. MEMORY i was
thinking of a different poly. Game but that is a
little bit of what you're gonna get with Cal. Poly
they can be a little all or nothing if their
shots are, falling and going back to What rob, says
if they're if they're hitting some, shots the way they play,
offense the pace in which they, play they're gonna hang
around against the twelve and a half points spread against
probably even some teams that maybe.
Speaker 2: Are better Than.
Speaker 1: Hawaii so that's encouraging because they can put the ball
in the, basket and if they are with any sort of,
frequency they'll be in this. Game rebounding was pretty even
in the first. Meeting you, know you kind of go
up and. Down the twenty three. Turnovers that's. Bad they
got to clean that up. Again that's even bad for their.
STANDARDS i don't know that like And hawaii is a
very good defensive, team BUT i THINK i think Top
polly if they make a point to like look back
and see how the first game, WENT i think that
they can probably go in and, say, hey we got
to take better care of the.
Speaker 2: Basketball we can't turn it over twenty three. Times that's.
Speaker 1: Insane i'm going to never have a chance if we're
turning the ball over.
Speaker 2: Twenty three times in a.
Speaker 1: Game you, know they did get thirty two points in the, paint, again.
Encouraging they're not just relying totally on chucking, threes ALTHOUGH
i do think you probably see another Game rob where
there's a. THIRTY i think Cal poly's probably taken thirty
threes in a game like, this Like hawaii is gonna
more or less keep them off the.
Speaker 2: Rim, now two other REASONS i like this.
Speaker 1: Game Isaac johnson For hawaii only played sixteen minutes last.
GAME i don't know his, status but that to me
says maybe it was an. Injury maybe he's you, know
if he's, out that certainly changes. Things johnson's gonna be
one of their better, defenders so that certainly changes. Things
If hawaii ends up without him, HERE i think you
actually see this move on the other side of.
Speaker 2: Ten if he's confirmed, out this will go off nine
and a.
Speaker 1: Half, AGAIN i don't know that to be the, case
BUT i do know that if he's confirmed out THAT
i think it would it would move even. More the final,
thing and this is something That i've said on this
show probably seven or eight times this. Year When hawaii
is good and they have a good team and the
perception is they're very, good which is what they are this,
year the tax to back them at home is always too,
big AND i just don't rob you, know this isn't
The hawaii teams that we used to remember in The
whack where they're going out To, Ruston louisiana and then
they've got to go to like some other mountainous, town
and now you're going out To. Hawaii The Big west
may travel To hawaii much, easier, Right they're all these
teams are In california once a, year they hop on
the plane to go To.
Speaker 2: Hawaii that's like to, ME i think that the home.
Speaker 1: Court angle in terms of like the spread is way
overblown With. Hawaii Now hawaii's fourteen and one at home this.
Year BUT i mean some of these numbers you'll, get
like the quote unquote lesser teams in The big twelve
or The big The Big, West i'm, sorry will be
like twelve point underdogs out At. Hawaii to, me they've
been off all year, now they've covered a few of,
them but it doesn't mean, that like if you're just
looking at this, game like that's still a huge. Number
AND i just don't think that the flight To hawaii
and Then hawaii being at home is worth like six,
points and it feels like that's what the odds makers
make it. Worth so that is What i'm gonna go
with poly plus twelve and a. Half it's a four
percent client play for, me and it will be my
leg to. Parlay speaking of, which do you? See it's
your See i'll either go to one more donation or
you can give your leg out right.
Speaker 2: Now it's up to. You if you want six more
minutes to think about.
Speaker 3: It, yeah let me go, now because all, RIGHT i.
CAN'T i can't talk myself out of. This i've tried
twenty different ways to talk myself out of, this mainly
because of, price AND i just don't think that price
is going to bother me, here And i'm going to
go back To william And mary And. Campbell you, KNOW
i wanted to isolate this and just Play william And
mary over their team total of eighty four and a.
Half but the MORE i look at, it the MORE
i want to Include campbell. Again you guys all remember
the first game Where campbell went absolutely crazy and Blitzed
william And mary right out of the shoot. There in that,
GAME Dj smith was. Incredible william And mary only scored
eleven points in the first ten minutes of that game
and found their way to ninety six against this. Team
defense is optional With campbell for. Sure, offenses everything paces.
Everything it's the same With william And mary for the most.
Part that was the reason WHY i wanted to Isolate
william And mary, here their inter revented. Situation they over
the course of the last thirty minutes scored eighty five,
points which is more than you're asked to score here
tonight in forty. Minutes SO i leave to chat with
that because that's a possible angle here as. Well but
one sixty eight and a half gets my attention a
little bit more simply because of the outing That campbell
had On saturday Against. CHARLESTON i can't ignore the fact
that they were, brutal offensively, brutal And i'm such a
bounce back regression to the mean type of handicapper THAT
i can't Ignore campbell going two of twenty one from.
THREE i can't Ignore Dj smith going one of thirteen from.
Three that game was at. Home they're at home, again
and you just don't expect two home performances back to
back like that out of a team with the offensive
firepower that they, have and especially against a defense that
puts up very little. Resistance So i'm going to Include
campbell in. This, guys, again if you want to Play
william And mary team total only over eighty four and a,
HALF i will probably get there. Myself i'll probably have
to play this thing two, ways BUT i think my
primary is going to be the full game over one
sixty eight and a. Half the game we got two
hundred the first, time two hundred with one team scoring
eleven in a ten minute. Period are they thirty three
points worse this time, around and with all the circumstances surrounding,
THIS i just don't think. SO i Think William mary's
got a big revenge angle gear to come in and
do what they couldn't do the first time at. HOME
i Think campbell's got a big bounce back in. Them
charleston's a funny. Team. Adam let me just divert for
half a second, here Because charleston we talked about the
injury To, hickman and since he's gone, down it seems
to me Like Chris mack has decided we're going to
shorten possessions from now. On we're not going to play.
Fat they played a sixty two to fifty seven game
With campbell the other. Day they just absolutely put the
brakes on that, game And campbell couldn't make. Shots and
that's not What William mary will. Do Brian rohl's not
gonna put the brakes on any. Game it's gonna be
all gas both. SIDES i think we'll get the. Opportunities you,
know there were seventy three free throws in that first
meeting Between william And mary And. Campbell it just goes
to show that the lane is wide open for these
guys most of the. Time and the and ones were
in effect in that. Game files to the, rim we're
in effect in that. GAME i don't know what changes.
Here the characteristics of these teams don't, change and SO
i would expect that this game finds its way to
one seventy, four and we're looking at one sixty eight
and a. HALF i, MEAN i could see an eighty
nine to eighty seven, finals something in that, range eighty,
eight eighty, seven et, cetera et, cetera which is well
over what we need to get. Here so for me
final leg of the, Parlay i'm gonna go full. Game
i'll Include campbell here just because of what happened to
them On saturday and thinking that in a back to
back home game they'll do better here against this style
team over one sixty eight and a. Half full Game,
Campbell william And, MARY.
Speaker 1: I think you're VERY i think you're very smart to Include,
campbell And i'll so you AND i have talked About
Brian earl and how he's gonna play this. Style he's
gonna play his game pretty much no matter. What he's
gonna play his game even if his players are not
fit to play. It we saw him do that At.
Cornell you, know there was A i've referenced this on
the show a couple of. Times there was a stretch
At cornell where he had a really good team and
he almost ran them into the ground like they ran
out of, gas because they were not they were not
fit to play his style for the course of a whole.
Season i'm not saying that that's the case here at,
all but WHAT i will, note we now have Two
this will be the third time in conference play That
william And mary is playing a repeat. Team, okay and
the first two times you got the exact same game.
Twice you got the exact same game. Twice when they
PLAYED Unc, wilmington you got the exact same game. Twice
when they Played, elon you got the exact same game.
Twice elon zoned.
Speaker 2: Them they, could, they they and They it was the
same result in both.
Speaker 1: Games they Beat wilmington, twice same exact. Game they lost
To elon, twice same exact.
Speaker 2: Game, elon you, know put them in a zone and
over the weekend they couldn't buy a.
Speaker 1: Three elon just sat they sat in that. Zone they've
they've sort of figured out that they can still play
zone Without matthew Van coleman there And william And.
Speaker 2: Mary i'll pull it up real. Quick Rob in that
game was six for twenty four from, three and it
was the difference in the game couldn't buy.
Speaker 1: One so if you subscribe to the theory That william
And mary is just gonna play the same exact, game
AND i don't really you, KNOW i don't really see
Why campbell would would change anything Because campbell dropped one
oh four first meeting in. One so if those two
things are, true then you probably have another game that's
in the nineties Because campbell's not going to change, anything
And william And mary is not going to change.
Speaker 2: Anything SO i think you're right to include.
Speaker 1: Both AND i think you're right that it's like any
number is probably good here because this one's probably got
one hundred and eighty points on the low, end it
could have. MORE i think you're gonna see both teams
and The knight's going to be, again probably the same
game we saw the first time these two teams.
Speaker 3: Play, yeah and to your point about getting zoned By
elon going six of twenty four from, three they still
managed to get the seventy eight points in that, game which,
is you, know if you make a couple more, threes
you're at eighty. Eight and in our, case LIKE i,
SAID i foresee something like eighty LIKE i, say eighty
eight eighty seis something in that range for both. Sides
so one sixty eight and a half looked a little bit.
Shay you know, what we saw one eighty five and
a half last night From Alabama arkansas and we knew
what it was going to, be and it just tore
through that number in a. Flash they're at over one
hundred in the first, half SO i think we're probably
looking at the same type of thing.
Speaker 1: Here all, right let's head back to the. Chat we've
got time for one more og betts with a. Donation appreciate,
that and yeah we.
Speaker 2: CAN anyc basketball is always welcome on this.
Speaker 1: Show as you guys, KNOW i live in kind OF
anyca country. Here i'm like twenty five about thirty minutes
away from The Le moyne campus WHERE i, live SO
i watch a good amount OF anyc basketball throughout it
and it's a great league to, uh there's always edges
in this. League so we og bes bets says Og
BETS LTx, SAYS i don't think li you can score
that much to lay nine on the road Against Saint.
Speaker 2: Francis so let's talk about that for a. Second this
will Be i'm.
Speaker 1: Sure Long Island universe is thrilled that this will be
the last time they have to go To De Gaulle
arena out In, LORETTO. Pa this is this is the
Longest bush trip that they have to make in conference
play BECAUSE i believe they. Fly they're not busting To.
Chicago lu would fly To chicago to Play Chicago. State
so for years this is always you, know the last
couple of years prior to this, Season Saint francis has
been very good in this league and this has always
kind of been like a little bit.
Speaker 2: Of a house of horrors for L.
Speaker 1: Iu you have to go all the way out there
and play a very Good Saint francis.
Speaker 2: Team Rob. Veno they put their band at mid. COURT
i love. That first of, All Saint.
Speaker 1: Francis Saint francis is a top five like extremely nice
To trig when he went there. School they gave me
merch they, had they were giving me, snacks like they
fed me. Dinner like it was like they really you,
Know i'll always be appreciative of the Way Saint francis
was WHEN i went there last, year got to see
the team that ended up in THE Ncaa tournament last,
year and it's sad to see them leave the ranks
Of division, one BUT i kind of understand from a
money standpoint why they're going to do. That so last
season IN d one For Saint, francis it'll be the
last Time Long island you has to go. There here's
a couple numbers for, You, rob and we'll get into the.
Spread L iu is fourteen and thirty all time at
The Gaul, arena so clearly that road trip has has
not been kind to L. Iu they've lost three in
a row and head Coach Rod strickland has never won.
There rod The, God rod The God strickland has never won.
There who's who's done a tremendous job to turn around
THIS lu? PROGRAM a great follow FOR nec. Basketball Nelson,
castillo who covers this, team tweeted this out. Earlier winning
in this league is so important because THE nec still
does a campus site, Tournament SO lu has every sort
of reason to like desperately want that number one spot
because it's probably gonna mean they host the championship game
and Lemoy and In Central connecticut are right on their
on their, tail on their tail right, now so they
can't afford a bad. Loss they might be Without Shadrick
lassau here, though and that is very important in my.
Opinion he's worth something to the. Number so if if
Og betts is saying that he would would take the
points and and he he'd play for a closer game,
HERE i got to agree with him because none of
those things THAT i just said makes it a favorable
scenario for l I u And Saint francis is just
kind of playing with house.
Speaker 2: Money. Rob they're only IN d one for a couple more.
Months there's no.
Speaker 1: Expectations they probably just want to finish out the. YEAR
i do believe they could go to the they're eligible
to go to THE ncaa.
Speaker 2: TOURNAMENT i.
Speaker 1: BELIEVE i had to double check on, that BUT i
don't see why they wouldn't Be So, Yeah Saint francis
plus the points kind of makes some sense.
Speaker 2: Here what do you think about?
Speaker 3: THIS i would. Agree i'm just staring at the clock
ten fifty. SEVEN i want to throw another game out
really quick here at him that we didn't we.
Speaker 1: Can if you have nothing to add to that. ONE
i just want to touch on that because we got
a donation for. It, so, yeah if you want to
go to a different, game go.
Speaker 3: Ahead, yeah let's just go. QUICK i want to talk
about WHAT i considered to be the game of the
night here Cal State. Northridge you See Santa, barbara and
you know the other night we talked ABOUT i think you, Were,
yeah you were At George, Washington George, mason, right and
we were talking About Raphael castro and his targeted return
date didn't happen because he didn't even come back AGAINST,
vcu but Mirror little targeted this, date this game Against
northridge to come back. Tonight now you see a big
drop in the total here from sixty two to one
fifty seven and a, half which either is a little
bit of knowledge or a little bit of a fake
to people perceiving that maybe he won't go regardless if he,
goes or not to me in this. Game with that
dropped to one fifty seven and a, half perhaps you're
looking at a little bit of an over. Here they've
played once Already northridge got the better Of Santa, barbara
so this is a little bit of A Santa barbara
revenge type. Game with little you'd probably have to pay
more than the three and a half that is currently
being asked for for sure if he gets announced. In
but LIKE i say that injury news of mirror little
coming back, HERE i think you'd probably want to get
involved earlier rather than later in this game BECAUSE i
think the prices are pretty good at this point in.
Time Adam northridge In Santa barbara the two best offensive
teams in this. League not really good defensively either. One
and despite the fact That Santa barbara would like to
play with some moderate tempo and the first time around
it was held down to one thirty, NINE i Think
northridge will try and switch that up, here so big.
GAME i just wanted to get that out there for,
Everybody Northridge Santa. BARBARA i think we're total is. Concerned
you might want to get in earlier rather than. Later
if you're an, overplayer.
Speaker 1: Without a doubt that number expects little to be, out
And i'm the same with like. That three and a
half on the side is totally has little out priced,
in like the bookmakers are pricing that with him out.
Speaker 2: If he, plays which he. Could he's battling a hand.
Speaker 1: Injury he's tried to play through, IT i believe a
couple of times already he could give it a go.
TONIGHT i think it would Help Santa barbara tremendously if he,
does because he's a great, defender and you have to
Defend northridge right like they've That's northridge is not going
to strike fear into an opponent on the defensive, end
but they can. SCORE i think this would go off
six or six and a half If little is confirmed.
In if he's, not it probably stays three and a
half and you're still probably good Because, rob what do
we talk?
Speaker 2: About northridge has that great shooting. Backdrop at, home all of.
Speaker 1: Their all of their numbers are juiced there's splits are
juiced up because of where they, play in my, Opinion
so you put them on the road against The Santa
barbara team that's, very very good at, HOME i, believe
one of the best in terms of like cover margin
and against the spread on their home floor in this.
Speaker 2: League, yeah you gotta you gotta Like Santa barbara here
in my. Opinion so, yeah those are good points a little.
Bit The, gauchos this has been your squad all.
Speaker 1: YEAR i feel like you're you're do sort of that
big run into The Big West tournament with this.
Speaker 2: TEAM i feel like you're right.
Speaker 3: There this, Conference. Adam we just love this conference. Tournament
we've talked about it.
Speaker 2: Before there's a POSSIBILITY i might be at that conference.
Tournament we'll. See I'm I'm i'm working on that right.
Speaker 1: NOW i may be out In vegas for a couple
of days for this and The, whack which like plays,
simultaneously so looking forward to it either. Way if, Not
i'll probably end up in a small gym in the,
northeast maybe like A Long island who would be hosting
their conference.
Speaker 2: Championship we'll see how it.
Speaker 1: Goes WHAT i do know is we're at the end
of the, show, show and we've got to recap the.
Parlay so the parlay of the day, Today Brian power

cal poly plus. Twelve i'm gonna throw that up to
like minus one thirty juice BECAUSE i do see that
