Speaker 1: All right, Welcome in everyone.
Speaker 2: It is Monday, though it doesn't feel like a Monday
with daytime basketball and all these games today.
Speaker 1: But it's time for full court Press.
Speaker 2: I'm joined by my host, co host Rob Vino, and
we're here to talk hoops. It's gonna be a I
believe a little bit of an abbreviated show week for us, Rob,
because the basketball takes a break finally over the Christmas holiday,
they did away with the Diamond Head Classic, which is
a little bit sad. I liked those random couple of
Christmas Day basketball games, but it looks like we've done
away with that. So I believe it's today and tomorrow
and then we won't see you guys until next week
because there's no games. So we got to make it
a great show the next two days. And Rob, I
know you're thrilled about this. Today, the feature game I
dressed for the occasion is your Missouri Tigers, and they've
got a big one out in Saint Louis this afternoon
against the ill this evening, I believe, against Illinois, So uh,
talk to me, is this this is some sort.
Speaker 1: Of a rivalry? Is there a name for this one?
Speaker 3: Rob?
Speaker 1: I forget. I feel like it's a rivalry of some sort.
Speaker 3: It's a rivalry of sorts. I will say this, A
significant amount of the student body at MISSOO goes there
from Chicago, UH and surrounding areas, which makes this it's
kind of a border state. It is a border state, actually,
and a lot of kids commute from the Illinois state
of Illinois and especially the Chicago area, so it makes
for a pretty decent rivalry. It's nowhere I found it.
They call it bragging Rights. I knew it had a name. Oh,
they said, yes, it's you know what. It's written right
in front of me too, and it's I mean, it's
not the border War, let's put it that way. It's
not ku, but it is significant to both. They played
this one every year, and so here we get it
in Saint Louis a neutral If you ever traveling I
seventy to Columbia, Missouri, you'll find that Saint Louis is
kind of a neutral spot between Champagne and Como. What
I found interesting here Adam and boy the money got
to it quickly. But let's add some coaches to our
list of coaches who have no problem sharing their feelings
about their team status. Right now, let's just start with
Brad Underwood. These quotes are priceless. This is after they
had just lost and barely lost to Nebraska eighty three
to eighty. But what Brad Underwoold had to say about
his team, you look at our front line and there's nothing.
You get a horrendous stat line from everybody that played
no rebounds. I mean, there's nothing there that's on me,
that's in practice, that's getting more from them. What I
didn't like was our approach to guarding Nebraska. It's a
mental tenacity, it's a toughness, it's a grit. We've had
that we at Tennessee. We actually had it through most
of the Ohio State game, which they actually won that one.
But he's not thrilled, and he actually in practice this
week worked Illinois very very hard on the defensive aspect
of the game. Kylin Boswell, point guard, added to it, saying,
sometimes we're immature. Comes with being young. It's difficult at times,
and in basketball terms, Adam, I'm glad he put it
this way because a lot of times guys don't understand
or betters don't understand what bad defense really consists of
Kylin Boswell. We've had a lot of misswitches because we're
not talking in transition. We talked about it all week.
Don't run to the paint, and this is the difference
in basketball now. Right on a fast break transition, don't
defensively run to the paint, run to the three point
line where mazoo. For what it's worth, Dennis Gates, still
figuring out his lineup, added Jacob Cruz to the starting
lineup fifth fifty three percent from three. Jacob Cruz, I mean,
he was great last year, he's been even better this year.
Part of the starting lineup. Using that to help stretch
defenses and give Mark Mitchell a little more room to rome.
So the spacing is better for Missou. But the head coach,
Tennis Gates of Missouri, was not happy with his defense either.
I mean, Gates all weekend long preached defense. I bring
both of these coaches up and what they're looking at,
what they're focused on this game, because the total open
one fifty nine and went down to one fifty four
and a half. If you got there at the opener, congratulations.
If you get there now, I still think you might
have a little bit of room in this particular game.
You look at both of these teams and say, seventy
seven a side still doesn't quite get you there. You
need a seventy eight to seventy seven game. Very possible,
But I think the way these coaches are wired here
and what they have their teams focused on, perhaps an
under could be a decent play. Sidewise, Adam, I'm not
sure you know. I like them both. I think Missouri
has been flawed at times. We know Illinois has been
flawed at times, and this is really a kind of
a where are we now? The type of game heading
into conference season, I think they'll both get a really
good idea of where they're at. I happen to believe
Illinois is the more talented team, for sure, man for man.
If I had to choose rosters, I'd probably pick Illinois's roster,
But certainly Miszoo has the capability and at times they
both have the tenacity. My look here early would have
been under at this point. Maybe still a little bit
of an under. And as for a side, I'm gonna
let you have at it because I really don't have
a good indication of which side I'd rather be on here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm almost always going to come up here
and talk about the side, and this was the one
scenario that I kind of have more of a total's
opinion than the side opinion, but very in line with
your opinion.
Speaker 1: I think under makes sense.
Speaker 2: So something I read this morning that was interesting to
me because I've I've watched this other team play quite
a bit is that the only zone that Illinois saw
all year was Colgate and so that that, you know,
caught my eye quickly because I watch a lot of
Colgate basketball, and when I went to the Colgate Sianna
game earlier this year, my big takeaway from that game,
which I talked about on the show, but my big
takeaway from that game was Colgate's one three one zone
and how athletic and quick and good it looked against
Sianna because Colgate doesn't have that big, plotting six' Ten
shrek looking center that they had the last couple of
years slowing everything down, right so they were able to
play this super athletic one three one. Zone they stretched
pressure a little, bit and that's the only Zone illinois
saw this. Year per Per i'd have to fact check,
it but that was, it and they didn't They illinois.
Didn't PL i don't have the final score of that
game in front of, you BUT i don't, think going
off of, MEMORY i don't Think illinois had like their
best game Against.
Speaker 1: Colgate and so.
Speaker 2: That THAT'S i guess in line with sort of your
you're looking at the under IS i Think Missouri gates
is obviously gonna play some, zone can can maybe slow
Down illinois offensively a little.
Speaker 1: Bit but like WHY i don't have a huge opinion.
Speaker 2: On the side rob is you, know even though unders
sort of tend to correlate to, underdogs, right so you,
know AND i wore My MISSOURI uh, sweatshirt and if
you forced me into like a, LEAN i would probably
lean that. Way and as this gets, Bet i'm even
more inclined to lean that way because of course open
eight now you're up to nine and a half some,
Places so on a neutral after a move like, That
i'm definitely inclined to lean the. Underdog but my concern
IS missoo isn't gonna do a ton Against illinois, either
and so that puts more more put me on the
under then it does decide Because i'm worried About missouri
getting good looks in this game as. Well And i'm
kind of still like on The illinois bandwagon a little,
bit thinking that they could. Be LIKE i don't think
they get talked about like some of these, other like
big name top twenty five teams. Do but they're kind
of the one, team one of a couple of teams
rob THAT i think maybe doesn't get the hype that they.
Deserve you, know went down To nashville earlier this, year
Destroyed tennessee their best. RESULT i feel Like i'm leaving
out one really Good illinois. Result, oh they Beat Texas,
tech and, yeah those are probably the best result was
probably Beating Texas. Tech they hung around With. ALABAMA i
still Think illinois could be really. Good SO i Think
i'm more with. You i'm looking at the under instead
of the.
Speaker 3: Side. Yeah AND i, mean if you just rewind our
show back like three weeks ago to That Illinois Texas tech,
GAME i think the three of US bp included at the,
time we Had illinois and a lot higher status than
they sit right. Now and that's because of their results
from that point to this. Point they've kind of lost
a little bit of luster in people's power ratings in people's,
minds et, cetera et. Cetera but they do you, know
they were injured a little bit at that, Time, Adam
let's Give illinois a little bit of. Credit they've needed
some time to get cohesive with all their, bodies their
main key players in the, rotation all on the court at.
ONCE i too, think you, know they Have elite eight caliber.
Ability what they do here Against missoo remains to be.
Seen AND i will point, out you, Know illinois is
Not kansas, Defensively, Eric, yeah they're Not kansas, Defensively But
miszoo did have their struggles Against. Ku sixty points was
all they could score Against kansas in that, game got
blown out by. Twenty so against elite competition hasn't looked
great thus. Far miszoo hasn't played a ton of elite
competitions so far this.
Speaker 1: Season, YEAH i, Think I'M i think we're kind of in.
Speaker 2: Agreement if IF i had to give out a pick
on that, game it would be clearly be the under
so and you, Agree So i'm kind of comfortable leaving
that one. There, uh let's do this one and then
we'll go To we'll go To garth. Next just BECAUSE
i was that this would have been very bold of
me to make this the FEATURE i thought about, it
BUT i. COULDN'T i couldn't DISRESPECT i couldn't Disrespect Illinois
maszoo like. That but My Sienna saints rob head To,
Bloomington indiana, Today now they're a twenty three point.
Speaker 1: UNDERDOG i would hardly say that that's a feature.
Speaker 2: Game but you, know there's not many big name top
twenty five teams playing.
Speaker 1: Today and you, Know i'll point this.
Speaker 2: Out, sienna it doesn't play these games very, often so
they're in they're in a very unique position as a
mid major where they don't need to play a ton
of like buy. Games, uh they crush THE mac at
attendance every single. Year so like you look at that,
conference most of THOSE mac schools get to get maybe
two thousand a, game twenty five, hundred you, know twenty five.
HUNDRED i don't even Think canisius holds more than two,
thousand right like some of those some of those other schools.
Speaker 1: Maybe nine, hundred eleven.
Speaker 2: Hundred and then obviously LIKE i own to get some
People Fairfield Beautiful New, arena they they are getting fans
there like a bad night For sianna down AT Mvp
arena is forty five hundred five thousand a good night's
like eight, thousand so relative to the rest of their, League,
like they have no problem paying the, bills, right they
don't need to schedule these like NON d one. Opponents
they never play A d two, school and they very
rarely go and play like go and play like the paycheck.
Game because you know these these types of games like
and And i'll let you weigh in on this as.
Speaker 1: WELL i. DON'T i. Don't, yes like one or two
of them may.
Speaker 2: Help but if you're like A, SIENNA i think you'd
much rather Play Colgate, vermont like the top teams from
the other leagues that are like in like the other good,
Leagues like you want to play elite mid major. Competition
you don't necessarily want to like go on the road
as a thirty point underdog and like Play indiana like
you gain less from that. Game but it's a necessity
for some, schools not so Much. Sienna that's why you
don't see many of. THESE i can't remember the last,
time a couple of years, BACK i think played on
the road At. KANSAS i, KNOW i Know georgetown was
LIKE i guess supposed to be a big name, team
but that was When georgetown was really. Bad So i'll
bring that up Because sianna goes To bloomington, today the
twenty two point, underdog was up to twenty, four got
hit back down to twenty. TWO i have mixed feelings just,
because like off of, MEMORY i Know sianna typically doesn't
do well in these types of, games just going off
of like historic like back to like WHEN i was,
THERE i don't ever remember with the exception of Playing
kansas At Allen Field house close one.
Speaker 1: Time us doing well in these types of.
Speaker 2: Games now you can look and they played well in
That thanksgiving tournament one year and knocked off some big.
Speaker 1: Names but that's. Different that's on a.
Speaker 2: Neutral on the other, hand it's an awful lot of
point tray A sianna team THAT i think is going
to win THE mac this. Year rob and matches up
kind of not too bad With, indiana so intriguing game.
Here i'm extremely. BIASED i Think sianna's gonna go out
and play great. Tonight they got rut out By. Vermont
McNamara was, Like, hey that's what you guys need to
strive to. Be he was you want to talk about
postgame cop the like. Quote he straight up, Said, hey,
guys that's you want you want to Be.
Speaker 1: Vermont that is a good basketball.
Speaker 2: Team they're they every single, year they're at the top
of their, league and they just straight up beat us,
Tonight like that's. It there's nothing else to. Say we
got beat by a better. TEAM i Think sianna responds
to that a little. Bit And i'm curious to see
your take on this. One and we've got people disagreeing
with me in the, chat so this should be a great.
Speaker 3: Conversation, WELL i think if you're pointing Towards, sienna that's
exactly where you, point, right you point toward the motivational
level in this. Game sienna's off a bad. Loss coaches,
LOVE i don't want to say they love, losing but
they love to be able to coach off of a.
Loss just pointed out two coaches now With illinois And.
Missouri you know those coaches love that when they can
go to practice and they can you, know scold their
team so to, speak and let them know that these
are areas we need to. Work And sienna's in that.
Spot indiana's in the spot where how interested are we
in this? Game, basically we've opened up the Season january the,
fourth The Big ten season Against, washington come off of
a game Against Chicago state where they kind of got you,
KNOW i mean after The kentucky. Loss was that the
game that they were rapped up to. Play probably let's
get back on the floor and let's destroy. Somebody they
didn't exactly do, it but the motivational aspect would seem
to lie In sienna's corner in this particular. Game, however
the problem you run into is If indiana does want
to play because they don't have another game for twelve
days and maybe Coach davariz wants to get them in
tip top form heading into the conference, season then they
do Everything sienna. Does Everything sianna does well at a higher.
Level And sienna's a good tempo. Team indiana's a better tempo.
Team indiana's a better shooting. Team indiana has a better rebounding,
Team indiana is a better defensive. Team all the assets
That sienna has to make them a quality team at
this point at their, Level indiana does much better And
indiana shoots the three way way better Than sienna, does
so that's your. Concern If indiana comes to, play, fundamentally we're.
Better we got the home court In. Bloomington how Does sianna,
react et, cetera et. Cetera is it worth twenty two?
Points twenty two and a half. Points i'm not so.
Sure it could be the Way indiana results have gone this.
Year AND i just want to credit real quick BEFORE
i turn it over to. You adam on the job
That Darien deriza has done so far this year With
indiana walk in through his first real big TIME i
get That West virginia is a big twelve School power,
five But indiana is an elite job due to the
historical performance of this. Team and what he's done is
he's taken the. Talent we talked about it a little
bit with a couple other, Coaches but he's not trying
to fit the square peg into the round. Hole yes
he's brought his. System, Yes indiana is a little bit.
Slower yes they're really good on the defensive. End but
when you look at their, tempo it's Not drake. Tempo
it's not last Year West virginia. Temple he looks at the,
talent he sees he can run a little. Bit with these,
guys you got to let him out of the cage
a little bit so they can perform up to their.
Capabilities and average possession length is on the high side
of average FOR Ncaa Division one, teams and the possession
length is about middle of the. Roads so they're playing
a little bit. Quicker he's taken advantage of what he.
HAS i looked At under in this game and got
scared off it BECAUSE i, thought you, know how Is
sienna gonna come up with enough points in this? Game
and If indiana's If sienna is motivated and plays decent,
defense they could Catch indiana off. Guard one for three
and a. Half tough number to Bet under. With but
IF i had To, ADAM i THINK i would lean that.
WAY i think this could be a little bit lower.
Speaker 1: Score, Yeah I'm i'm GONNA i agree with.
Speaker 2: You and AS i listened to you talk AND i
watched the market, here so This i'm a little bit
upset with.
Speaker 1: Myself this clearly got faked.
Speaker 2: Up and there was a few minutes PROBABLY i don't,
know right before we got on this show WHERE i
could have had twenty four With. Sienna that's where that's
where it got bet up from twenty two at the
open to twenty. Four it's back down to twenty two
and a. Half i'm gonna USE cna plus twenty two
and a half for the parley just BECAUSE i feel
LIKE i don't know IF i can give it to
clients at that current number WHEN i could have had twenty.
Four BUT i like it enough to have some sort
of action on it as far as you're under is.
Concerned so couple things here and Then, TREVOR i want
TO i want to respond to your comment in the
chat BECAUSE i think you make some good, points BUT
i have some counterpoints. There Riley mulvey is now. Back
so that is the seven footer That sienna got From.
Iowa he's a local. Guy he actually went To iowa
to play For, fran who he grew up watching As
sienna's head. Coach, that's you, know part of the relationship.
There and then he didn't play a ton At. Iowa
he was a backup For. Fran fran takes the pen
job and it's kind of, like you, know he wanted
to come back. Home So trevor in the chat, says you,
know brings up The Saint bonaventure. Game, well they really
Needed Riley mulvey in that game because he's a seven
footer that protects the rim And Saint bonaventure just abuse
them on the inside and he got a, concussion played
two minutes and he hadn't played since he's played the
last two. Games he's. Back he's not even the best
big on The sienna. Team Tasman goodrick is. Phenomenal he's.
Back so what that means, is you know they're gonna
be able TO i Think sianna can Force indiana into
some bad, shots into taking some. Threes they've got these
two sort of trees that are pretty good rim, protectors
and their guards are going to defend out to the
three point, line SO i think they're gonna be tougher
Than indiana expects them to be. Defensively The colgate, game
WHICH i referenced in our last, breakdown is the NIGHT
i realized That sienna cannot function against his, zone like totally.
Lost they just had no. Clue and Then sianna went
on a run of games where they played inferior Competition,
Albany Holy, Cross, Longwood American, Main, Niagara. Canisius those are
it doesn't matter if those teams can go in his.
Zone those are not good basketball teams this year for
the most. Part way Down, canisius way Down maine is
awful this. Year Longwood Griff aldrichschuk went To virginia to
coach with h with his Boy Ryan. Otum they're. Bad
american is down from what they were last. Year so
like those are all sort of, this you, know like
whatever type. Results vermont was able to confuse them a
little bit defensively going to the, zone And sienna had no.
Answer indiana a doesn't really play, zone and b is
not going to care enough About sienna to like alter their, defense,
Right like that's another thing you have to understand about
these Big Like indiana's not worried about, like, oh we
might have to play some zone Against. Sienna they're just, like,
No we're just gonna play our game for forty. Minutes
it might get ugly at, times but we're still good
enough athletes to win this game by, twelve, Right like
that's just how that's going to. Be more it's more
important For indiana to play their game regardless of What sianna,
does because that's the only way they get something out
of this. Game they're not like scheming for twenty four
point Nsunderdog. Sienna so because of, THAT i think there
are ways Where sienna keeps this much closer than the,
spread and rob you're probably you're under is probably good
Because sianna covering this likely means they took Some indiana
took some bad, shots had a hard time getting into their,
offense maybe settled for some.
Speaker 1: Threes SO i think both of those.
Speaker 2: PLAY i would Say sienna and under In sianna plus
twenty two and a half will be my leg of
the parlay.
Speaker 3: Very. NICE i would just say real quick because the
Way i'm wired always looking at, totals a realistic score
in this, Game adam final score is seventy. Eight something
like seventy eight fifty seven is what came to my.
Mind that's a cover For. Sienna that's a blowout On indiana's.
Part that makes the head coach, happy but it makes
the betters who play the dog. Happy so that's the
margin that you even have to exceed if you're Betting indiana.
Here it's got to be a total intensity driven blowout Of.
Sienna we just don't know If indiana's coming to the
floor In bloomington, today where by the, way the crowd
probably won't be as vocal because kids are home for the,
holidays so maybe a little less of a home floor
advantage In bloomington.
Speaker 2: Tonight, yeah and just talking about potential like backdoor, opportunities
Like sianna really doesn't want to shoot the, three like
that's that's not. There with the exception Of Brendan, coyle
he'll he'll bomb it from. Deep but like their best,
Players Gavin dodie always wants to go off the. Dribble
he's not really trying to take like jump or. Threes
and then Good rick on the inside has, become you,
know the arguably the best offensive threat and he plays
around the. Rim so if this is like foot off
the gas scenario Where indiana's up fifteen, EIGHTEEN i think
there's gonna be like a lot of like dribble drive
maybe easy buckets to like keep the margin close. Enough so,
YEAH i Think cianna plus the points is good. There And,
ROB i hope the boys are a little bit more
competitive than your final, score BUT i think it's kind of.
Realistic seventies to sixties is What i'll call. It AND
i think THE i Think santa to be pretty happy
with that. Effort this is a very Good indiana.
Speaker 4: Team, Okay, garth what we have some couple THINGS i
just brought up in the you, know in the last
my little rant, there if you want to call it.
Speaker 1: That although it wasn't really a. RANT i wasn't.
Speaker 2: UPSET i was just, saying like you know it. Was
it was my breakdown Of. Ciana he's his thoughts On American,
virginia specifically the over one fifty six and a half
high total for A virginia. Game But american is nine
and one to the over for this. Year i'm going
to start this off and Then i'll Let rob hammer this.
Home you have to get high total for A virginia
game out of your. Vocabulary Ryan otum And Griff aldridge
are Not virginia basketball as we've known it for years and.
Years there is no such thing as quote unquote high
total for A virginia game. Anymore it's not a team
that plays. Slow it's not a team that plays pack.
Line it's just not what you knew For virginia is
irrelevant going. Forward this is odom who who you? KNOW i,
mean he's he's a defensive, Guy, rob but like maybe
a little bit more of like A havoc style defensive,
guy not, like, hey let's play like run thirty seconds
off the shot clock and play this like pack line.
Defense and then you, Know aldrich's teams were up and
down At longwood and he's he is the sort of
his associate head coach at this, Point SO i wouldn't
say like high total for A virginia. Game you might
be onto something With american because even Though Matt rodgers
is no longer, there two Time Patriots League player of
The year took them to THE Ncaa tournament last, year
it's a Young american team this, year which is WHY
i was a little out on them coming into the.
Season But, rob they can score a little, bit so
he wants to know thoughts on the. Over we're gonna
go to the totals guy for this, One, rob what
do you?
Speaker 3: Think? Yeah And i'm glad he asked the question BECAUSE
i was very. MUCH i dug into this one and
handicapped it pretty. Strong. Me What i'll say To garth
is there's a separation In american games so far this,
season and what you want to look at is the
game where they played teams that play with pace Like virginia.
Does those games all speak to over in this, contest,
Right american plays Wake forest gets to one sixty. Two
they Play, penn it gets to one sixty. Two they
PLAYED gw it gets to one seventy, four they play Long,
wood it gets to one fifty. Eight in between all of,
that it's like an extreme, schedule right from a totals
perspective or from a matchup, perspective they play four snails paced.
Teams in between all. That maine doesn't want to go anywhere.
Fast drexel doesn't want to go anywhere. Fast Eastern shore
doesn't want to go anywhere. Fast, sienna who we just talked,
about doesn't want to go anywhere. Fast they're more defensive.
Minded so you got this two subsets of games here
to choose. FROM i think the PROBLEM i ran into
with playing, over and by the, way not only Is
american nine to one full game, over their team total
is nine and one to the over as. Well so
it's another area you could look if you wanted to
find a way to play, over WHICH i was looking
really hard to do in this. Game the PROBLEM i
have is That virginia even though they've taken on more
of an offensive. Identity they've played some really good offensive
teams and held them down as far as current modern
day college basketball is. Concerned they Played, butler And butler
winds up winning eighty seventy. Three they Played, texas they
hold them to sixty. Nine they Play, maryland they hold
them to seventy. Two they Play, marshall they hold them
to seventy. Eight all four of those probably better Than,
american certainly better Than american on the offensive. End WHAT
i like About american if you're looking toward over in this,
case is the fact That simpkins has just pushed pace this.
Year you go back and look at the tempo. Numbers,
obviously those of us who have followed this for a,
while you remember The Jeff jones era where they just
basically scored fifty. Five that was their. Game but the
tempo numbers have risen significantly this year For. American so
if they're gonna, push Then virginia's gonna score even. More
that's how you get. HERE i think you get to
the over, if in, Fact virginia gets mid nineties or,
better it's possible because Then, americans you, know sixty five
sixty seven gets the job done for. You SO i
wouldn't look under in this. CASE i really wouldn't BECAUSE
i Think virginia can get, there and As adam, says
it's probably not a let off the gas type of,
team So i'd probably still look at the. OVER i
WISH i had a better you, Know american would have
been a better kept secret if in fact it, wasn't
and a better. Play let's put it that. Way if
it Wasn't virginia, today if it was somebody else, where
we could just sneak in and nobody notices and play.
Over like has been the case most of the. Season,
here you got a high profile team where it's. Noticed
the nine to one is noticed by better subsequent move.
UPWARD i would still look a little bit over here
one fifty six and a.
Speaker 2: Half, YEAH i THINK i would agree with. That for,
ME i don't have a ton on this. GAME i
would say it feels like that line's getting up there
a little, bit so my opinion would be more towards the.
Side like, AGAIN i was anti it's Weirdest i'm not
gonna say Anti.
Speaker 1: American.
Speaker 2: ROB i love The United, states loved this, country BUT i.
WAS i was not super high On american coming into
this season because they LOST i mean they lost seniors that.
Speaker 1: Had been with the program for for like all four.
Speaker 2: Years like that's that's one thing that you still get
in The Patriot, league that you is really becoming like
just a foreign thing in college. Basketball is? That like
they had guys that were like program guys Like Matt
rodgers could have easily after he Won player of The,
year went and gone and played a year somewhere, else
but he chose to come back Get american into THE ncaa.
Tournament he had a couple of other seniors on that
team last year that won The Patriot.
Speaker 1: League so like because of that.
Speaker 2: And knowing how important That rogers AND i think they
graduated like three guys that were all like four year.
Speaker 1: Seniors knowing how important those guys were in the.
Speaker 2: PROGRAM i was a little down on this team coming
into this, year but they have played better THAN i
expected them, to which makes me think that they're. Young
they're young players might be able to step in and
sort of fill some of the. Production so now is
that gonna win them Another Patriot? League well maybe because
the conference is, Atrocious but What i'll tell you it does.
Help in a game like, this where you open twenty,
five it's up to twenty eight and a, half the
sort of consensus would, be, oh, Well america's not very
good this, year probably for some of the things THAT
i pointed, out when in reality they haven't played half.
Bad SO i, think like for, me it would have
to be dog or pass that twenty eight and a
half might be tough For virginia to, cover but definitely
not a ton Of i'm not super confident saying. Now
i'm just IF i can talk someone off of laying
twenty eight and a half, HERE i Think i've done
my job BECAUSE i don't think YOU'RE i think there's
better ways to spend your money today than trying to
lay twenty eight and a half With virginia mac Mad. Max,
listen if you want to throw another game, out go,
ahead and you don't have.
Speaker 1: To we appreciate the.
Speaker 2: Donation if you want to throw a different game, out
Just i'll be looking for it in the. Chat you
don't have to attach a donation to, it because we
want to get a game for. You but we opened
the show with this, game so we. Did Missouri illinois
we already broke it. Down we already spent ten minutes on.
It we talked about both side and. Total so you
can just rewind and get that. Breakdown but if you
want to throw another one in the, chat go ahead
and we'll make sure we'll get your game By u's
talking about a game THAT i find quite interesting here
and we might wow well by. You AND i may
disagree with a little bit on this, one which is.
RARE i also don't love disagreeing With. Keith he knows
what he's talking. About But keith, says absolutely Fading tulsa
off that miracle AT. Wku if you miss that, game
great inbound play that led into a three point attempt
that was hit at the buzzer For tulsa to win
yet another. Game, still the only loss rod for This
tulsa team was inexplicably blowing That Kansas state game in
the final forty five. Seconds tremendous year For tulsa. Continues
it looked Like Western kentucky had, them and they bang
a three at the buzzer to win the. Game bayou,
says kids gone for the. Holidays this game was in
two within two to three. POSSESSIONS a bold take From
keith on WHAT i believe is a seventeen point. Spread
he says he loves This denver off and study two
guys and a coach who keeps sneaking up on.
Speaker 1: Teams SO.
Speaker 2: I don't disagree with The denver love, them but man
Like tulsa's just, Hits they just hit. Everything their underlying
metrics don't really suggest like that they're gonna have a
ton of shooting. Regression and now they're at home where
they should get a ton of open looks Against. Denver
SO i kind of Lean tulsa a little bit. Here
timately kept me off because this is quite the big.
Number SO i guess break the tie, Here. ROB i Like,
Tulsa keith Likes. Denver how are you seeing this? One
you can just play neutral and talk about the total
and that's not break the tie at, all BECAUSE i.
Speaker 3: CAN i can come right in in the middle, Here
adam and tell you. That To bayou's, POINT i think
the best play in this game would probably Be denver
team total. Over if you get that letdown situation out Of,
tulsa then that shows up in the form of. Defense
the offense is going to go out there and you,
KNOW i say this all the. Time in, basketball guys
love to pad their numbers offensively defenses is very few
players treat defense as their priority in. Basketball it's, offense, offense.
Offense So tulsa's gonna walk, in you, know heavy favorite
should score on This denver, defense et, cetera et. Cetera
but off of the game Against Western, kentucky which was emotionally,
draining which was physically, draining et, cetera et, cetera here
comes this high powered offense that's only asked to get
you to seventy three points against a team that might
be somewhat. DISINTERESTED i fully Believe denver is going to
get over the seventy two and a. Half in, fact
it's on this little shortlist of mine where our parlay
leg is concerned for the. Day but to your, point
my affection For denver in this game comes more toward
the total and their team. TOTAL i isolate it that.
WAY i don't, know you, know the points may be
too much here, again If i'm speaking about Potential tulsa,
disinterest then maybe you want to look toward. POINTS i
GUESS i just don't trust The denver defense. Enough but
WHAT i do trust is their offense and they've been
you want to talk about hot, shooting and it's not
a great schedule by any stretch of the imagination that they.
Played but it's seven straight games shooting eight percent from
the field or better for This denver, team and that's
hard to do in, practice never mind in, games no
matter what the. Competition so to, me just to answer
by you question real, QUICK i Would i'm going to
be personally on The denver team total over seventy two
and a half and it may show up as the
parlay leg, Here.
Speaker 1: YEAH i mean.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't you'd almost have to think like this is equally
a bad spot For. Denver SO i, understand Like tulsa
maybe coming out a little bit. Flat they just have
this like they grab this huge road win in dramatic.
Fashion they basically had lost the game and they just
did a tremendous execution in the final like five seconds
to get the ball up to half court and then
run just an incredible inbounds play to get an open
look at a three that was nailed for the. Win
But denver over the weekend pulled an upset of there
pulled the upset Like tulsa's wasn't an. Upset they were
a favorite in that. Game tulsa did not cover that,
game for what it's worth Against Western. Kentucky believe they
were a three and a half point, Favorite So tulsa
did not cover even though they won that. Game denver
over the weekend is like a nine point dog went
and won At Northern. Colorado WHICH i know Where Northern
colorado is BECAUSE i passed it on my drive from
The Denver airport up To Fort collins two years. Ago
didn't know exactly Where Northern colorado. Is it's actually very
close To colorado. State you Pass greeley Like asure pretty,
much maybe twenty minutes outside of thirty minutes outside Of Fort.
Collins SO i GUESS i bring that up BECAUSE i
think there's a bit of altitude there Now. DENVER i
Guess denver plays an. Altitude so no big deal going
up and playing a game at Or Northern, colorado which
is where they were over the. Weekend but you talked
about going on the road getting that road win On.
Saturday two days, later you're on the road again down In.
Tulsa that's my concern for The denver. Sides it might
be an equally bad spot for, Them so numbers pretty.
BIG i Think i'm with, You rob. Points theres gonna be.
POINTS i don't know if it's gonna Be. DENVER i
don't know if it's gonna be, taalsome but it certainly
seems that these two teams could combine to put the
ball in the basket. Today So i'll just call for
the full game over, Here.
Speaker 3: Yeah and real quick to that. Point and a couple
of teams That denver's, Played arizona get whacked by thirty
but still make it to seventy. Three, seattle who we
know to be a pretty good team mid major this,
year find their way to seventy, Three Montana state seventy,
three and all the rest are better than. That so
and only a rare a few instances have they not
made it to this, number whether they got crushed by
the opponent or. Not AND i just want to say
That Northern colorado, Game denver's last ten minutes were sensational
because they were way behind in that, game AND i
think they Beat Northern colorado in that one pretty. Soundly
over the course of the last Ten i'd have to
go check the exact numbers but that back half of
the second half was a maze For denver in that.
Speaker 2: GAME i gotta shout out my, Guy garth feel for.
Him so he's A Western kentucky. Alum he said he
was at that game absolute highway, robbery and you got
by you in the chat calling for the illegal. Screen,
yeah they could have had a could have had an
illegal pick called on that last play that that kind
of opened the guy up for. Three but uh, yeah
that's a tough beat For Western. Kentucky that would have
been a really good win for. Them so, sorry sorry
that that you were on the wrong side of, That.
Garth although if you Took Western kentucky in that, game
WHICH i think you liked them maybe with the points
or maybe we like them on the, show you would
have you would have cashed that that.
Speaker 1: Ticket Mad.
Speaker 2: Max i'll continue to look for you in the chat
if you want to throw another game out, there we
can hit a different. Game but LIKE i, said we
we kicked the show off With Illinois. Missouri so as,
always the show is on demand on the way you're
talking to YouTube. Channel if you have a chance to
get over there and like, subscribe drop a. Comment it
does help the show out. Immensely we very much appreciate,
that but we'll continue to move. On this is an interesting,
game AND i know people want to talk about some
of these early. Tips So Denver tulsa is an early
tip three Pm. Eastern we have another early Tip yere.
Speaker 3: With.
Speaker 2: Seattle they're gonna Play Texas San. ANTONIO i had a
nice win On friday. Night haven't been able to say
that much in college hoop this, year ALTHOUGH i can't
lose a football. Play the weirdest season on ROB i
am it is The Twilight, zone but in A i
guess a half, good half bad. WAY i HAD i
hit every football play this. WEEKEND i Had James madison
somehow covered that, game BUT i just everything goes the other.
Way in, basketball it's got to turn at some, point
Like i'm gonna come out here and start giving out
college basketball winners at some. Point BUT i almost can't
even get that upset Because i'm having winning days because
all the football plays. Hit so it's, like what do
you even you, know what do you even? Do i'm
like third or second now on the, site the whole
site for. FOOTBALL i don't even really consider myself much
of a football. Guy i'm a basketball, guy But i'm
over here just hemorrhaging in. BASKETBALL i win it back in.
Football it's very very. Odd felt like a good spot
to event on. THAT i did have a good basketball
day On, friday and a big reason for that was
my four percent play on that night Was. Seattle they
went in and got, well they didn't go. In they
were actually so they were actually the home. Team So
seattle is like doing the they think they've Become yukon
overnight where they play half their games At Red Hawk
arena on campus and the other half That Climate, pledge
which is like probably something that had to do with
the move to THE wcc where it's, like, okay we're
gonna play bigger games At climate Pet. Pledge so do
The gonzaga, game The Saint mary's. Game it's a way
that they can Host washington BECAUSE i don't, know if
you're familiar with like Red Hawk, gym it's very very.
Small it like like maybe a thousand seeds on. Campus
SO i noticed that was the case over the. Weekend
here they turn around from that huge upset win rob
and they go on the road for a day game
down In San, Antonio. Texas against the road runners Of
Texas San. Antonio sean says he Liked seattle minus the. Points,
SEAN i Liked seattle minus the points, too even though
it's not the best spot for. THEM i love this
team LIKE i AND i played against them a couple
times earlier in the, year but THEY i have totally
come around On seattle being. Good they, were of course
a TEAM i watched very closely last year in The.
WHACK i had my instant reservations on if they would
sort of translate.
Speaker 1: Being to like being A wcc, team.
Speaker 2: Because of, course rob they kind of got the bump
from like the odds makers for like being in a
bigger conference, now AND i was unsure if that was
like legit at the beginning of the. Season but now
That i've watched them play, ENOUGH i can, say, like
this team's really. Good they Outplayed washington like that was
not a fluke. Win they straight up just Outplayed washington
On friday. Night And Texas San antonio doesn't create enough
offense for me to think that they can hang With.
Speaker 1: Seattle So, Sean i'm with.
Speaker 2: YOU i would lay it IF i was going to
play this game Win, seattle even in a bad spot
on the. Road what do you think Ron, Texas, Texas San,
Antonio seattle this.
Speaker 3: Afternoon, well first thing IS i will comment on That
Seattle washington game Where seattle and it was a battle
back and forth score wise down the stretch in that,
Game seattle small, Lead, washington take it, Back seattle small Lead,
washington press them or push them and come back and
take a. Lead and in the end it Was seattle
who won the tug awar which against a big ten
school has to open your. Eyes BUT i think my
eyes were first opened that them way back in the
beginning of this, show the very first, week week and a,
half WHEN i was Noticing Eastern washington played close WITH,
ucla came back and covered, again and then they're Playing
seattle And seattle was bet up a little bit And
seattle absolutely DESTROYED ewu one by twenty seven in that.
Game and they're, like, well you know, what maybe WHAT
i saw out Of Eastern washington AGAINST UCLA i have
to apply To seattle now since, then they've been nothing
but good to. Backcourt in That washington, game you, know
these guys are pretty solid backcourt senior, tandem but they
can shoot from, three they can get to the. Rim
in college, basketball it's been said for forty years maybe,
more that you win big games with guard. Play Certainly
seattle has. THAT i don't like the spot For, seattle but,
again you have to weigh situation against, fundamentals and the
fundamentals in this game the guys that are going to
be on the floor pretty much suggest That, seattle and
they're a really good defensive team. Too don't let me
leave that out. Here that they made utsas their problem.
Scoring they could have problems scoring Against seattle defense does.
TRAVEL i didn't play it at. THEM i wish it
was a better spot for This seattle, team but certainly
they've shown that it's no fluke so far this. Season and,
again when you have a pair of guards leading the
way that both shoot forty two percent or better or
whatever it, Is errington And maldonado from, three then you're
gonna be pretty. Good SO i don't have a firm stance,
here BUT i like What i've seen out Of, seattle no.
Doubt if this situation was a little bit, BETTER i
probably would have been.
Speaker 2: There, yeah it wasn't even a flukey win, either because
like they were just they were going to the rim getting,
Buckets like winning on the interior wasn't like they just
hit a bunch of like crazy, Shots like they straight
up outplayed the Outplayed, washington and earlier this year they
straight up out Played. Stanford NOW i know that's less,
impressive LIKE i don't you, Know stanford is, whatever but
like still that that's two scenarios where they've outplayed a better.
Team and you, KNOW i think for, me like what
put me off was that early second week of the
season they lost at home to Cal, poly AND i
already felt like their numbers were a little bit inflated
coming into the, year and so like then a couple
weeks later they were a super like sharp like you,
Know darling if you, will right like where like every
all The sharp guys were On seattle and they lost
TO U See Santa barbara out in a neutral court In,
vegas AND i was, like, okay like maybe this team's
a little bit Fraudul AND i actually played against them
last week WITH Uc davis because again they were going
on the. ROAD i covered that, game but they won
by one and that was kind of, like you, KNOW
i watched that entire. GAME i was, like you know,
WHAT i THINK i got a little lucky to win that.
Game davis hit a couple of big shots. LATE i
Think i'm back With seattle and they were so impressive Against,
washington And i've seen enough now THAT i DON'T i
don't Think i'm playing against The RedHawks anytime. Soon so
this would be a matchup THAT i, think like the
matchup tells me that they they should crush this. Team
they should absolutely Bury Texas San antonio like they're they're
going to generate very little. Offense scoring points is going
to be a struggle for them most. Likely And seattle
was they're they're cooking can fill it. Up so that
to me right there tells me that a two point
game could become a ten point game very very. Quickly
and you're you're. GOOD i, mean if you can get
it up to double, digits you're gonna cash this. Bet
BECAUSE i believe even after the move the spread, is
what are we looking at for a number on this
one right?
Speaker 1: Now? Rob like nine and a? Half is it still
like eight and a half or nine and a?
Speaker 3: Half get up to the early? Match, yeah, yeah eight
and a. HALF i see eight and a half across the.
Board really.
Speaker 2: Universally, YEAH i feel like this is a double Digit
seattle win unless they straight up come out and just
are just not.
Speaker 1: Interested BUT i just don't think that's gonna be the.
Speaker 2: Case they're Not they're not a big enough name to
be not interested in like a game like, this you,
KNOW i, mean they're just it's not LIKE i don't
think that that's the attitude of this of This seattle.
Team And Chris victor is a really good. Coach he
might be the next coach that ends up getting a
big job out of that out of that, league since
we know Like mark fu And Randy bennett won't go.
Anywhere like IF i was to pick A West Coast conference,
coach because every year there's one that like over achieves
and takes like a bigger, JOB i think it's going
to Be Chris victor From seattle this. Year AND i
Like seattle in that. Game, okay back to the. Chat
let's see. What, oh Here's Matt, okay let's Mad max's.
Back let's get him in.
Speaker 1: Here he.
Speaker 2: Says memphis is on a three game losing. Streak Alabama
state pulled an upset as a nineteen point dog VERSUS. Uab,
yeah shout Out Tony. Mattlock is that the coach rob
Former memphis? Guy. Right i'll leave that for you because
there's a little storyline, there. Right Alabama state Playing. Memphis
Alabama state covered two or three is sizeable. Dogs memphis
turns the ball over a. Lot not a great defensive rebounding.
Team kick us, Off Alabama State. Memphis do you think
the Big dog has any bark in it?
Speaker 1: Today in this?
Speaker 3: One we just had, This, well it had to have Been.
Alabama Wasn't NATO's playing one of his assistants last? WEEK i? Believe?
Yeah maybe Right Hodgson South, Florida.
Speaker 1: Yes, Yes South florida covered that number.
Speaker 3: Two, Yeah so it's always you, Know alabama won that.
Game they would never really in. Trouble But South florida
did cover the. Number it went way. OVER i guess
that's because that's where my interest was in that. Game
that's WHAT i was paying attention. To the points. Going
but it is always a twenty twenty hindsight, thing, head
coach or. Disciple which way do you want to? STAND
i WOULD i would probably. Lean you know you hate
to Play memphis as a. Favorite let me start. There
memphis just doesn't fit the profile of a team that
covers a lot of games as a sizable. Favorite Under Penny,
hardaway you like them more when they're an attractive underdog
that can match up personnel wise and is somewhat overlooked. Here,
however if You're Alabama, state do you get up for
two games in a row like meeting an in state
team that's in a classification level higher than? Yours OBVIOUSLY
uab a mid, Major Alabama state a significant low. Major
it's hard to play two games back to back of that.
Magnitude would be my counterpoint to not wanting to Play.
Memphis for, me it would be a no. PLAY i
think you could maybe look for toward the total, here
and my, idea my thought process there would probably be
to look toward Under just feel like The memphis personnel
against this type of opponent shows up really good, defensively
AND i don't know What Alabama state can score, Here
so maybe a slight lean toward the under in this particular.
Instance BUT i don't, know like you can hear in
my voice a little bit of a counter argument for the,
side don't Like memphis in this price range is a.
Favorite don't like the thought Of Alabama state being able
to play two in a row like the one they just,
Played it's got to be like winning The Super bowl
when you beat a team within the state, that's you,
know considered a big brother to. You SO i would
probably side alone and maybe take a slightly look towards
the total Under.
Speaker 2: Yeah i'm just pulling Up, yeah so's It's Tony, madlock
the coach Of Alabama, state AND.
Speaker 1: I, yeah so.
Speaker 2: He was was were him And penny? TEAMMATES i think they, were, Right,
like weren't him And penny teammates At?
Speaker 1: Memphis he was.
Speaker 2: There from eighty nine so well was there from eighty
nine to ninety. Two so the Reason i'm bringing up is,
Like i'm pretty sure these teams have started to play each. Year,
Yes madlock was At memphis eighty nine to ninety. Two
i'm pretty sure that was right around the same Time
penny was. There the reason is it's almost got like
a yeah college Teammate Penny. Hardaway so it's almost got
like A Tom izzo the one we just saw the other,
Day Greg campy type feel where LIKE i think these
two coaches are, friends they're on good. TERMS i don't
know That penny really wants to like go out and
embarrass you, know LIKE i don't think the. Goal if
you've watched a lot of These Michigan State oakland, games
and there was one the other, DAY i feel Like
oakland's covered quite a bit lately because like it there's
not you, know if it comes to, it like at
the end of the, GAME i don't Think iso runs
the score up On. Campy AND i would almost say
the same thing With, Memphis like if it's like a
thirteen point, game fifteen point, game sixteen point, GAME i
don't know That penny is like hell bent on going
for the knockout punch on his.
Speaker 1: Buddy so that right there has me leaning toward the.
Speaker 2: Dog the other thing that sort of tilts me toward the,
other LIKE i guess that Would, well this actually makes
the other, argument like if this game was was too
months ago or six weeks, ago i'd be all About Alabama.
State but we've had this conversation a couple of. Times
The swack Mid, december when you get to this part
in the, SCHEDULE i, mean you wonder how much some
of THESE swax schools have left in the tank with
how much travel and just how many of these like
sort of hot like step up by games they've had to.
Play Alabama state has not played a SINGLE d one
home game yet this. Year their only home game Was november,
fourteenth against a NON d one. OPPONENT i mean just
in the past, Month they've gone To indy for a
couple of. Games they've gone To New, mexico, Right, Missouri,
Cincinnati now they're gonna Play. Memphis it's like you just
have to wonder if they're like a little worn out
at this. Point but then, again does that even like
you can always it's much easier to get up For
memphis if You're Alabama state then it is if You're
memphis to like get up for you, know For Alabama.
Speaker 1: STATE i, MEAN i meant it the other way.
Speaker 2: Around it's easier For Alabama state to get themselves, up
even though they might be, tired to play a team
Like memphis than it is vice.
Speaker 1: Versa so with those two, THINGS i THINK i slightly
leaned the.
Speaker 2: Dog but, MAN i would have loved this spot For
Alabama state if this was four weeks ago and they
were a little bit they. Wasn't right at the end
of this like really grueling non conference. Season So, max
you do make a good. POINT i, Mean Alabama state
got up for THE uab game and won, it so you,
know maybe maybe they've got that in.
Speaker 1: Them but uh, yeah we'll we'll. See it should be
a be interesting.
Speaker 2: GAME i leaned the, dog all, Right, Steve we're gonna
go To rob because this is this is a team
that he was he was high on coming into the,
season and you, know you See Santa, Barbara. Rob they
didn't start off the season like you'd like to. See,
Recently they've suffered with the injury To Mirror, little which
has hurt them in my, opinion but they have what
some could consider a get right spot of sorts today Against.
Portland so the question everyone wants to know is does
you See Santa barbara get right?
Speaker 1: Today and can they cover this number?
Speaker 3: Well, again when guys ask questions on, SIDES i apologize
for not looking towards side first in these. Games that's
Just i'm wired to go immediately toward. Total in this particular,
INSTANCE i kind of like this game to show up
as an over for what it's. Worth you, See Santa
barbara hasn't looked the part offensively, lately but they get
an opponent in their wheelhouse here In, portland where they're shooting,
CAPABILITIES i think it's hidden a little.
Speaker 1: Bit.
Speaker 3: Adham Utah valley's a tremendous defensive team that probably doesn't
get credit for being as good a defensive team as they. Are,
then of course they played that game and Got leib's
press conference after The Wisconsin Green bay game Against Santa
barbara was where he basically, Said i'm giving up my
radio show And i'm gonna. Devud these kids deserve my.
Time and it was off of that. Win so congratulations
to him for dedicating himself totally to the. Team but
my point being that it's been two consecutive low scoring
games For Santa, barbara which is a very good shooting,
team and they don't play a lot of three point.
DEFENSE i think a couple of those things add up
here Against, portland which will play with a ton of.
Pace we're going to get the possessions here That Santa
barbara didn't get Against Utah valley that they you, know
they didn't shoot well Against Green. BAY i think all
of those things in a bounce back, form big bounce back,
GUY i think lead me toward over in this, game
apologize for not being able to help as much where
the side is, concerned but my eyes were drawn first
to maybe a potential overplay, here and real quick at
him AS i look at the, clock let me go
ahead and give a parlay leg here because we have
four minutes AND i know you're already In so the choices, again,
guys there's been a couple of, days, right come on
here and say you know What i'm down, to like
two or three, choices AND i just rattle them all
off to. You the last two on the card here
were both team. Totals i'll pick. One i'll tell you
first that one of them WAS Iu indianapolis to get
over the seventy one and a half.
Speaker 2: To get, well n talk about that game Because garth
donated he wants THE Iu Indie Grand canyon.
Speaker 1: Game can you just give us a few words on
that one or what you thought for?
Speaker 3: HIM i will real, quick The indianapolis team total appealed
to me just Because Grand canyon came off of that
big win Against wyoming a couple of days, ago AND
i just Don't we've talked about disinterest a couple of
times in the, show AND i just don't know that
the focus level will be the same as it was
for That wyoming. Game that was a really good mid
major game And Grant kenyon dominated defensively for the most,
part a really Good wyoming. Team that's what you. Know
they're predicated on defense this. YEAR i You indianapolis predicated on.
OFFENSE i just think this is kind of the same
analysis that we used earlier in a letdown. Situation what
goes first a little bit is the. DEFENSE Au indianapolis
is going to run up and down the. Floor you're
gonna get your share. Possessions they're asked to get the
seventy two points in this. GAME i think they. Will
so For, garth that's my, quick very quick. Analysis we're
up round o'clock here on that.
Speaker 2: One, yeah, yeah before you lock your parlay lay again
because we only have like three minutes. Left When i'll
say To, garth just to wrap that, UP i lean
toward the big. Spread and for reasons That rob, said
They Grand canyon goes on the road gets a win At.
Wyoming that's a really good win for. THEM i didn't
really expect them to win that. GAME i don't think
This Grand canyon team is even close to what their
market rating. Is now they have to come home and
lay twenty five and a half to a team that's
gonna go fast and try to ken score a little.
BIT i would say that that spread is too, Big So,
Garth i'm with you on the side it seems like
a big.
Speaker 1: Spread just wanted to wrap that game. UP i didn't
know we were going.
Speaker 2: To talk about that one right, there but all, right go, Ahead,
rob what are you looking at for that?
Speaker 3: Far real quick backdoor is always opened for Iu in
to do something at the. End So i'm gonna go
with a fan favorite, here at least one of. Mine
in no sense not Playing Northridge. Adam northridge team total
tonight Against Sacramento state is eighty six and a. Half
AND i mean they came all the way cross country
To delaware where the money couldn't get To delaware fast
enough on A saturday, morning bad time slot for A
West coast. Team what are they doing making this? Trip et,
cetera et. Cetera AND i looked at their team total
in that. GAME i, said he's. Serious there's no Way
northridge doesn't Get maybe even if they don't play the first,
twenty there's no, way because they're so capable of a
fifty point half at. Anytime there's no way they don't get.
There they played a great first, half they got there.
EASILY i think very quickly that they get there easily
again tonight against A Sacramento state team that doesn't hit
the boards, defensively which means a lot of chances For. Northridge,
Adam we've talked about the Way northwich can put the
ball in the bucket quite a bit this. Season they've
come through for us a couple of. Times i'm gonna
ask them to do it. Again this team total is
eighty six and a, half So i'm gonna Play Cal
State northridge up and over eighty six and a, half
figuring against this defensively Weak Sacramento state team that they
can get to eighty.
Speaker 2: Seven, yeah you talk about their rebounding Quick Prophet johnson
did not play over the weekend eight point seven rebounds per.
Game Bear cherry has been out eight point two rebounds per,
game so they've basically been out without their two best.
REBOUNDERS i thought the number was. Big northreidch should crush
this team like they should win by fifteen to twenty.
Points here AND i think you're gonna hit your team.
Total and if you hit your team total and My
sianna boys come through, tonight then we'll hit another.
Speaker 1: Parlay parlay's are.
Speaker 2: BACK i think we're up over three units, now so
today's parlay as we sort of scrambled to get off
in time for the next, Show sianna plus twenty two
and a. Half northridge team total over eighty six and a.
Half hopefully we cash another one. Today we'll be back tomorrow,
morning ten. Am More Full Court. Press thank you everyone
