1
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: All right, welcome in. It is Friday. We've made it

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,240
to the end of week one of Full Court Press.

3
00:00:09,359 --> 00:00:12,199
I was told, guys by someone that watched a Total

4
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,839
Basis show regularly that we did one time during the

5
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,519
season hit three parlays in a week, So this is

6
00:00:19,559 --> 00:00:23,120
our chance to top it. If you're new here. By

7
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,120
the end of the show, we do a parlay that

8
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,800
we put together, and we've hit three of the four

9
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,519
so far since the inception of the show on Monday.

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:35,079
So we're very excited about that. Very good almost like

11
00:00:35,399 --> 00:00:37,079
don't know if we'll top it the rest of the year,

12
00:00:37,119 --> 00:00:39,280
but we're very excited about that. And we are trying

13
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,799
to go four for five on three teamers this week,

14
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,119
which would would truly be an accomplishment. So stay with

15
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:47,960
us for the next hour. If you've got a game

16
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,439
you want to talk about, jump in the comments and

17
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,079
let us know. But we're not going to waste any

18
00:00:53,119 --> 00:00:54,960
more time. There's a million games and we've got to

19
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,320
start things off in Chapel Hill. I love it, you know.

20
00:00:58,439 --> 00:01:00,640
I'm fine with the made for TVs off. I'm fine

21
00:01:00,679 --> 00:01:03,560
with these like games being played in Vegas, but like,

22
00:01:04,239 --> 00:01:07,159
this is what I'm talking about give me Kansas North

23
00:01:07,159 --> 00:01:10,159
Carolina at the Dean Dome, a true home game for

24
00:01:10,239 --> 00:01:13,200
North Carolina and the clear Markie game of the night.

25
00:01:13,239 --> 00:01:16,840
So we'll welcome in Rob Veno. Kick us off, Kansas UNC.

26
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:17,879
How are you seeing this one?

27
00:01:18,879 --> 00:01:21,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm having a problem with the headset here, guys.

28
00:01:21,239 --> 00:01:23,200
Hopefully you can hear me. Okay, is it bad?

29
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 1: We can hear you.

30
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:25,159
Speaker 3: I can hear you.

31
00:01:26,359 --> 00:01:26,799
Speaker 4: Okay, good.

32
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:27,079
Speaker 3: Yeah.

33
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 2: Let's you know the first thing that, of course, they

34
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,159
both have a game under their belt. Let's start with that.

35
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,920
They almost won by identical scores Kansas Beach Green Bay

36
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,760
ninety four to fifty one. U NC beat Central Arkansas

37
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,560
ninety four fifty four. They gave up three more points.

38
00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:44,159
You go through these teams, guys, the first thing I

39
00:01:44,239 --> 00:01:48,040
found was there's a significant age gap in these teams.

40
00:01:48,599 --> 00:01:51,079
Speaker 4: KU top seven in.

41
00:01:51,079 --> 00:01:54,599
Speaker 2: Their rotation the other night featured three freshmen five hundred classroom.

42
00:01:55,159 --> 00:01:59,159
It's not necessarily a veteran ball club here U n C.

43
00:01:59,359 --> 00:02:01,959
On the other hand, their top seven, they have one

44
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,239
freshman out there with five upperclassmen. Now, the two freshmen

45
00:02:05,959 --> 00:02:07,359
that are going to be in this game for each

46
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,919
side are pretty highly touted for KU Darren Peterson actually

47
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:16,719
scored twenty one in his first game. He's widely projected

48
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,599
to be a lottery pick. Some list him as top

49
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,680
three high school recruit in the country, but he proved

50
00:02:22,719 --> 00:02:26,520
it opening night. Four Ku seven of eleven shooting twenty

51
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,479
one points, went to the free throw line four times,

52
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,960
made all four four UNC Caleb Wilson is their star

53
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,280
five or five star recruit, six foot nine guy played

54
00:02:38,319 --> 00:02:39,840
pretty well opening day as well.

55
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,479
Speaker 4: But when I look at this roster construction.

56
00:02:42,039 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 2: Again, Kansas didn't do well in the portal by major

57
00:02:47,439 --> 00:02:50,520
conference team standards, especially by Kansas standards. I think I

58
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,280
saw a ranking of forty three in the portal rankings.

59
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,439
And again, Peterson's great, but the only hit on one

60
00:03:00,039 --> 00:03:04,960
fruit really where five stars are concerned. The backcourt here

61
00:03:05,159 --> 00:03:08,639
looks pretty solid. Adam guy, you're probably really familiar with

62
00:03:08,719 --> 00:03:12,400
Melvin Council. Saint Bonnie Kid walks In plays the most

63
00:03:12,479 --> 00:03:16,240
minutes of anybody on the team in that opener, so

64
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,800
the minutes were pretty well dispersed. Let me just lay

65
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,120
that out first for folks watching.

66
00:03:20,479 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 4: Both of these.

67
00:03:21,039 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 2: Teams went fairly deep, a lot of double digit minutes,

68
00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:28,400
little experimentation going on Trey white Is here comes over

69
00:03:28,439 --> 00:03:32,360
from Illinois. They returned on Marco Jackson. He's a former

70
00:03:32,439 --> 00:03:36,439
five star. The backcourt to me for Kansas looks like

71
00:03:36,479 --> 00:03:38,840
it can be Okay, I'm not all that concerned, but

72
00:03:38,919 --> 00:03:42,759
it's the front court where you basically have Bedunga, who

73
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,680
played well in twenty three points nine to eleven from

74
00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,840
the field first game. But other than that, there's not

75
00:03:49,919 --> 00:03:53,599
a lot of front court talent here at Kansas size

76
00:03:53,719 --> 00:03:57,240
or talent. They did bring in Paul and Bayer, who

77
00:03:58,039 --> 00:04:01,120
quoting Bill self here now got in late in the summer.

78
00:04:01,159 --> 00:04:05,800
Bill Seltz says immediate impact player. Well, immediate impact player

79
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,159
was like the tenth man off the bench for eight

80
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,840
minutes in Monday's game. That's not an immediate impact player.

81
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:14,080
So I worry a little bit about kids is across

82
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,519
the front for UNC. We've talked all meet guys about cohesion.

83
00:04:18,639 --> 00:04:20,759
These teams losing players. You can see, loses eight to

84
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:25,279
their top nine scorers. Only set trimbles back, however, and

85
00:04:25,439 --> 00:04:29,120
Revasar for Arizona walks in seven foot centing. You know

86
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,759
Hubert Davis, he had mentioned in an article that I

87
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,199
read his main goal was to get bigger, UNC. I

88
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,319
think we all watched them enough last year. They were

89
00:04:39,319 --> 00:04:43,759
too small and they wanted to get bigger. Basar comes

90
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,040
in right away, fourteen and ten double double in his

91
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,439
opening game. That's gonna help. They go to Alabama to

92
00:04:49,439 --> 00:04:53,600
get a stretch forward Jaron Stevenson double digit minutes each

93
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,600
of the last two years. So they're picking up these

94
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,079
veteran guys. But the most important was probably Kay and Evans.

95
00:04:59,319 --> 00:05:03,040
I think everybody remembers the Colorado Colorado State amazing run

96
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,279
in the NCAA Tournament last year, and Evans was the

97
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,720
leader at point guard of that team, not the top player,

98
00:05:08,759 --> 00:05:12,120
but the leader at point So hopefully that settles some

99
00:05:12,199 --> 00:05:15,959
things down for North Carolina again, I would just preface

100
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,319
it all by saying, how quickly can they Geil, I

101
00:05:18,319 --> 00:05:20,480
don't know how much you guys want to put into

102
00:05:20,519 --> 00:05:23,399
these forty point or you know, huge wins by each

103
00:05:23,399 --> 00:05:24,360
side on Monday Night.

104
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,439
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say this, the game's gonna be played at

105
00:05:27,439 --> 00:05:31,399
a rapid pace. UNC. It was a seventy five possession game. KU.

106
00:05:31,439 --> 00:05:33,519
Speaker 2: The possessions were only down because they scored every time

107
00:05:33,519 --> 00:05:35,480
they add the ball. When when you shoot seventy two

108
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,959
percent from two point range not gonna be a lot

109
00:05:37,959 --> 00:05:40,120
of possessions, so it's.

110
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 4: Gonna be played at kind of a track pace.

111
00:05:41,959 --> 00:05:44,480
Speaker 2: The total has been bumped six and a half points,

112
00:05:44,519 --> 00:05:46,199
one fifty two and a half all the way to

113
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,720
one fifty nine. I worry about Kansas being led by

114
00:05:50,759 --> 00:05:53,839
so many freshmen in Chapel Hill here. Can they get

115
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,079
it done in that environment? That's gonna be a question

116
00:05:57,199 --> 00:05:59,920
mark for me. So even though North Carolina might not

117
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,800
be fully cohesive yet one and a half points, I'm

118
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,639
gonna lean towards that side to win by a bucket.

119
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,959
And I guess if I had to, You know, Adam,

120
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,399
I think you stated yesterday some of these totals have

121
00:06:12,399 --> 00:06:15,959
gone way, way way like fishing line and just run,

122
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,279
and yet they still get there, including one of our

123
00:06:19,319 --> 00:06:21,399
parlays last night. I want a piece of our parlay

124
00:06:21,439 --> 00:06:23,480
last night, So I would probably try a little bit

125
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:23,759
of over.

126
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,959
Speaker 4: But I think un c is where i'd lean a

127
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:26,639
little stronger.

128
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would concur. And you know it's tough. You

129
00:06:32,519 --> 00:06:35,439
peel open the box scores from the respective first games, right, Okay,

130
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,199
Number one Kansas dominates great. I don't put a lot

131
00:06:38,199 --> 00:06:41,199
into that because look, as long as Green Bay is

132
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,480
coached by Doug Gottlieb, that's that's just a program that's

133
00:06:45,519 --> 00:06:47,399
not going to go anywhere. I'm sorry, it just it

134
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,240
just is the Trent Dilfer of college basketball is how

135
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,399
I refer to him. Can't call him that anymore because

136
00:06:52,399 --> 00:06:55,480
Trent Dilfer got eighty six. But you know, you just

137
00:06:55,519 --> 00:06:58,000
look at the numbers. You know, Rob mentioned Kansas going

138
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,680
down the floor scoring almost each and every time. Just

139
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,879
to put some numbers to it, they shoot almost fifty

140
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:07,120
seven percent from the field, almost thirty seven percent from three.

141
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,800
They hold Green Bay below thirty percent shooting overall. North

142
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,000
Carolina it's a similar story, better than fifty percent overall,

143
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:20,120
almost thirty five percent from three. They hold Central Arkansas

144
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,759
to again just over thirty percent, put up what one

145
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,759
point two five points per posession North Carolina. Again, take

146
00:07:26,759 --> 00:07:29,759
it with a grain of salt given who the opponent is,

147
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:34,279
you know, R I think Rob nailed the key to

148
00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:37,199
the handicap. We talk about it in football a lot,

149
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,439
whether it's done at the show I do the Blitz

150
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,120
on Thursdays, or all of us talk about it on

151
00:07:42,199 --> 00:07:45,839
various appearances. You know, whenever you have a true freshman

152
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:50,040
making his first road start. That's typically a spot where

153
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,240
people look to fade in football, and here, what do

154
00:07:52,279 --> 00:07:56,600
we have a young team going on the road early

155
00:07:56,639 --> 00:08:00,000
in the year. I agree that I would play North

156
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,399
Carolina as a small favorite here for what it's worth,

157
00:08:05,079 --> 00:08:07,480
North Carolina the last five teams and this goes back

158
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,959
like a long time. But you know, I don't know

159
00:08:09,959 --> 00:08:12,319
if there's gonna be any motivation for you know, humor.

160
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,720
A couple of these losses came under Hubert Davis. But

161
00:08:14,759 --> 00:08:17,360
North Carolina it's been a long time since they've beaten Kansas.

162
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,519
I mean they've you know, they've lost them five straight times.

163
00:08:20,519 --> 00:08:22,439
That goes back to the game that got Billy Packer

164
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,639
fired from CBS where he exclaimed this game is over

165
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,279
in the first three minutes at CBS got really mad

166
00:08:28,319 --> 00:08:30,040
at him. I'm sure there's somebody in the comments section

167
00:08:30,079 --> 00:08:33,360
that has to remember that. But yeah, I'm I'm on

168
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,679
the tar heels here as a short favorite Kansas. There's

169
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:38,919
no shame in a loss for Kansas. I don't think

170
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,200
it will necessarily tell us much about Kansas big picture.

171
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,320
If they lose this game. I would, you know, I

172
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,679
would expect them to lose going, you know, across country.

173
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, not a ton to add to that. For me.

174
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:54,759
It's like, so I'll point out a couple of things.

175
00:08:54,759 --> 00:08:57,120
The first thing I just want to point out the

176
00:08:57,159 --> 00:08:59,399
board lighting up on this game. There's a couple of

177
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,720
books that continue to go to three and a half,

178
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,440
and then it's like instantly Kansas's bet, which makes which

179
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,720
makes sense at that number. So you've got a couple

180
00:09:08,759 --> 00:09:11,000
of the more popular books continue to push this to

181
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,720
three and a half. Every time it gets to three

182
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,639
and a half, some some sharp probably sharp group is

183
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,600
hitting Kansas. Go ahead.

184
00:09:17,919 --> 00:09:19,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just want to clarify. When Rob and I

185
00:09:19,799 --> 00:09:21,639
were talking, it literally was one and a half too

186
00:09:21,759 --> 00:09:24,720
North Carolina. Yeah, those gone now.

187
00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:27,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, And even though that's that's the thing, like some

188
00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:31,039
of these other so if you get to see you too,

189
00:09:31,879 --> 00:09:35,360
I think they're gone at most of like the the legals,

190
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,279
like the super popular shops, like the DraftKings, the Van Duels,

191
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,360
the MGMs, the Caesars. But like some of these other

192
00:09:41,519 --> 00:09:44,240
like lesser known books are just still sitting at one

193
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,279
and a half, and Kansas keeps getting hit at like

194
00:09:47,399 --> 00:09:49,919
three and a half and three. I think that's probably

195
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,440
makes some sense. Like I think you're gonna see, uh,

196
00:09:52,639 --> 00:09:55,759
you know, respected money on both sides of this game.

197
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,360
For me, I made the number pick. But I'm with

198
00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:01,960
you guys the respect that I really don't really want

199
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,919
to go. I don't want to back Kansas on the

200
00:10:04,039 --> 00:10:06,639
road at the Dean Dome a white out. I heard

201
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,080
it's gonna be, you know, live crowd. I don't trust

202
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:11,919
this Kansas team enough to do that, and they're not

203
00:10:12,039 --> 00:10:14,159
deep enough either. So it's like, you know, they have

204
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,559
Baduga and Peterson, who both had really good games in

205
00:10:17,639 --> 00:10:20,200
the opener, Rob, You're one hundred percent right. I'm a

206
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,360
big Melvin Council guy. He was also at Wagner. He

207
00:10:23,519 --> 00:10:26,879
took Wagner to the NCAA Tournament two years ago before

208
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:28,919
his year at Saint Bonaventure. I've always been a big

209
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:29,480
fan of him.

210
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:30,440
Speaker 3: He is a.

211
00:10:32,399 --> 00:10:35,399
Speaker 1: Yes, six guys, there were six guys on that team,

212
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,080
and now we know their coach didn't let him drink

213
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:41,759
any water. We know that as well. But the point

214
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,919
is with Counsel, he's a really good He's always was

215
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,759
a really good just creator, shot maker, do it all

216
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,120
your self type guy at Wagner and he did a

217
00:10:49,159 --> 00:10:51,320
lot of that for the Bonnies. A lot tougher to

218
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,559
do that when you step up and play teams like

219
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,320
North Carolina or do it for a team like Kansas,

220
00:10:56,399 --> 00:10:58,360
and you get outside those three, and I have concerns

221
00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:01,919
about their depth. So that's where I'm gonna leave it.

222
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,039
There's more to talk about tonight. I'll sort of defer

223
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:07,039
to you guys on that one. I just don't have

224
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:08,559
a super strong opinion.

225
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,559
Speaker 3: I want to I just want to double check something

226
00:11:10,639 --> 00:11:14,960
really quick. I don't foolish. Draft Kings right now still

227
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,159
has North Carolina minus one twenty two on the money line, which.

228
00:11:18,039 --> 00:11:20,399
Speaker 1: Is yeah, I mean that's what which is.

229
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 3: Notably different because everywhere else North Carolina you're gonna fight,

230
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,159
it's minus one. I'm looking unless if you guys see

231
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,080
something different, minus one thirty, minus one forty. So we're

232
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,200
talking about how there is you know, people are hitting

233
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,159
Kansas when it gets up.

234
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,519
Speaker 1: I don't know.

235
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,399
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe it's a case of overthinking it, but you know,

236
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,399
minus one twenty two on the money line, that's not

237
00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,720
a bad deal. I would play that, to be honest

238
00:11:39,759 --> 00:11:39,960
with you.

239
00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably I feel like this probably ends up

240
00:11:42,799 --> 00:11:44,679
closing in the two and a half three range for

241
00:11:44,799 --> 00:11:47,159
North Carolina. So if you can get a UNC money

242
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,399
line minus one twenty to minus one twenty five and

243
00:11:49,759 --> 00:11:52,039
you like that side, I think that that's probably a

244
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,200
reasonable play. Duffel, No, this is much harder than Total Basis,

245
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,799
much much harder. By like week three, By like week

246
00:11:59,799 --> 00:12:01,960
three of Major League Baseball, I can talk about those

247
00:12:02,039 --> 00:12:05,159
teams blindfolded, eyes closed, don't really need to look at anything.

248
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,799
I can probably do the show in my sleep. This

249
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,519
is so much more challenging. You know, I've got we

250
00:12:10,879 --> 00:12:13,600
have like and we love that. I mean, but like

251
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,080
you know, they're look at all the games on the

252
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,919
board today. To come in and make sure I have

253
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,559
something to say with the three of us, like putting

254
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,480
our efforts together to make sure we have something to

255
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,600
play to say about any game that you possibly ask

256
00:12:25,639 --> 00:12:28,440
about is a challenge. So no, this is much tougher

257
00:12:28,799 --> 00:12:31,360
than the Total Basis show to do. But I love

258
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,039
college basketball. We love doing it, and so get those

259
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,799
comments in the chat. I want to go to a

260
00:12:35,879 --> 00:12:40,039
game my guy Keith Bayou, Betts Landry and quite a

261
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,399
few other ones. Oh. Duffel also says, can we get

262
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,679
BP to drink some fireball during the show. Listen, we're

263
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,720
all on East Coast time. It is ten am Tokyo.

264
00:12:47,799 --> 00:12:50,919
Brandon cracks that fireball at eleven pm Tokyo time. So

265
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,759
I don't think we're going to be doing any fireball shot.

266
00:12:54,639 --> 00:12:57,039
Brian and I might do a little We might post

267
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,200
ourselves doing a little drink at the Toledo game. What

268
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,399
are those called that we're going to have a rocket

269
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:02,799
launch rocket lunch?

270
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 3: What was it? I looked it up? Yeah, the only Yeah,

271
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,320
they had some branded seltzer. Yeah, as all these please did.

272
00:13:09,399 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 1: Again I see in rocket launchers. That's what we're going

273
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:12,279
to have.

274
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,039
Speaker 3: Yes, and they had their own Seltzer Yes, in the building.

275
00:13:16,159 --> 00:13:17,159
I'll probably try that.

276
00:13:17,639 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll probably try that as well. Looking forward to

277
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,639
that key by you, bets Landry says Georgetown outright, my man,

278
00:13:23,799 --> 00:13:27,320
good little rivalry game there. Yeah, it is nice to

279
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,039
have this game, you know, be a little bit more

280
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,440
meaningful than it's been in and I feel like past

281
00:13:32,519 --> 00:13:36,559
years because Georgetown is starting to resemble that of a

282
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,399
respectable basketball team. Of course, Maryland is very much backed.

283
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,639
But I'll go to Rob here real quick and we'll

284
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:47,720
talk about this game. You know, Maryland's interesting because for me,

285
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:51,240
I look at this team and I love Buzz Williams.

286
00:13:51,279 --> 00:13:53,960
I've always been a Buzz Williams guy, so any team

287
00:13:54,039 --> 00:13:56,720
that he coaches I'm always going to gravitate towards. But

288
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,639
we have such a new roster. We have a couple

289
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:04,759
of that didn't play in the opener, So you know,

290
00:14:04,879 --> 00:14:08,360
the two that I wrote down was Solomon Washington and

291
00:14:08,519 --> 00:14:11,919
Miles Rice. I think I saw Riisel probably play. But

292
00:14:12,039 --> 00:14:13,879
the point is there's a lot of moving parts right

293
00:14:13,879 --> 00:14:17,639
now for Maryland. Does that number seem big to either

294
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,039
of you? I'll let Rob start.

295
00:14:20,159 --> 00:14:23,039
Speaker 2: I think the opener did Adam, But they've gotten to

296
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,559
the Georgetown side right eight and a half, shoot all

297
00:14:26,559 --> 00:14:30,480
the way down to five and a half. Now, you know,

298
00:14:30,639 --> 00:14:34,399
in a simplistic form, I would say the same thing

299
00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,519
as you about Buzz Williams coming in trying to re

300
00:14:37,799 --> 00:14:41,000
establish Maryland. But on the other hand, Ed Cooley's second

301
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:43,159
year there at Georgetown, I think things are much better

302
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:46,360
in place for him. They gave up seventy in that

303
00:14:46,519 --> 00:14:49,399
first game, which you never know how serious it is

304
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,919
being taken when you're supposed to win, but they scored

305
00:14:52,039 --> 00:14:56,960
eighty seven. My first inclination here, Adam, honestly, was to

306
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,600
try and play this game under But then I saw

307
00:14:59,679 --> 00:15:02,480
George Time, you know, whip out eighty seven points, and

308
00:15:02,519 --> 00:15:04,159
I'm like, well, maybe I'm on the wrong.

309
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 4: End of my analysis here.

310
00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 2: But as common as it is from what we've said

311
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,879
about a bunch of games through four days this week,

312
00:15:14,759 --> 00:15:19,320
you would think that the Maryland issue would be trying

313
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,039
to get everybody, you know. Buzz Williams has a style

314
00:15:22,159 --> 00:15:25,200
that's kind of unique to tell you the truth, and

315
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,279
you just don't walk into a program.

316
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,039
Speaker 4: He didn't just walk into A and M and they

317
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,120
were A and M right off the bat.

318
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 2: It took him a while to get it to be

319
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,399
played his way, his guys, his everything, And I think

320
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,080
at Cooley's got an edge there. And I'd also say

321
00:15:41,159 --> 00:15:45,039
this to me, Georgetown's going to be the hunger your

322
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,960
team in this game. Georgetown's trying to re establish and

323
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,639
some sort of national attention, even East Coast attention, but

324
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,240
to spread nationally. They want to be known again where

325
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,279
Maryland is. Just In said these words too a couple

326
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,360
of times this week. Experimentation, evaluation process, I think, but

327
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:08,799
Buzz Williams is still evaluation he'll use and Cooley's defenses

328
00:16:08,919 --> 00:16:11,480
can be very funky for teams to go up against.

329
00:16:12,679 --> 00:16:14,720
I would lean Georgetown here, but I just don't like

330
00:16:14,799 --> 00:16:16,440
the fact that it's already down to five and a

331
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,240
half guys have gotten at the opener. I think got

332
00:16:18,279 --> 00:16:22,000
the right price, and you know, closing line value sometimes

333
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,120
ends up in the garbage camp.

334
00:16:23,159 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 4: But I think it's good here.

335
00:16:26,039 --> 00:16:29,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would concur with what seems to be the

336
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,320
general sentiment, not just rob but our chat that Georgetown's

337
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,600
the right side here. But I am a little concerned

338
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,320
we've already missed the best of the number. Maryland an

339
00:16:37,399 --> 00:16:40,320
unproven entity. I understand why people would want to bet

340
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:45,159
against them here. Interesting though, because I mean we've talked about,

341
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,320
you know, we were talking about in the world of totals,

342
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,759
how these totals have moved and it hasn't matter what

343
00:16:49,879 --> 00:16:51,519
number you've bet, whether you've bet it at six in

344
00:16:51,559 --> 00:16:54,000
the morning or six in the evening, you're a winner

345
00:16:54,039 --> 00:16:56,200
in some of these regards. I will say one thing

346
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,639
about the Georgetown side that something else that makes it appealing.

347
00:16:59,799 --> 00:17:02,919
They won the opener despite shooting four of twenty six

348
00:17:03,039 --> 00:17:05,680
from three. Now they might they might just be a

349
00:17:05,799 --> 00:17:08,200
bad three point shooting team. You have to be careful.

350
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:09,960
But that's something I always look at. I mentioned it

351
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,799
on Yesterdays Show, that three point variance is a big

352
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:15,880
deal to me. I generally like to back teams after

353
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,920
a bad shooting night from three and like to fade

354
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,720
them after a hot shooting night from three. Is it

355
00:17:20,839 --> 00:17:22,759
that a one hundred percent deal? No, of course not.

356
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,519
Nothing's one hundred percent. But if Georgetown's able to put

357
00:17:25,559 --> 00:17:27,319
some points on the board despite making only four of

358
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,200
twenty six from three, you gotta think they're gonna shoot

359
00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,200
better from downtown here and that it would be dog

360
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:38,480
or pass again, though maybe played a little smaller at

361
00:17:38,519 --> 00:17:40,359
the current number. See if it gets back back up,

362
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,440
who knows. We just talked about North Carolina Kansas right

363
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,960
drag that Hey, North Carolina is getting met up than

364
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,559
Kansas gets hit and it comes down. So I would say,

365
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,559
monitor the line. You might be able. This might come

366
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,319
back up a little bit and then fire to six

367
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:53,759
would be nice. It would be nice to get a

368
00:17:53,799 --> 00:17:55,480
sit you know that two possessions or even six and

369
00:17:55,559 --> 00:17:55,839
a half.

370
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:58,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the only other thing I was going to

371
00:17:58,799 --> 00:18:02,279
add was that Georgetown missed a lot of shots against

372
00:18:02,319 --> 00:18:05,240
a Morgan State team that is probably one of the

373
00:18:05,279 --> 00:18:07,359
worst ten teams in the country this year, So that's

374
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,200
a little bit concerning. But you know, how organized will

375
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:14,119
Maryland be. Obviously those Texas A and M teams under

376
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,119
buzz were great rebounding teams, but that requires organization and

377
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,799
maybe a little bit of time. So probably one I

378
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,240
just sort of casually watch. I don't know if I'll

379
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,039
have a play there, but I think you guys make

380
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,000
great points. All right, Garth, thank you very much. We

381
00:18:28,519 --> 00:18:31,720
very much appreciate the donation to the show. We also

382
00:18:31,839 --> 00:18:35,200
appreciate likes, subscribes, and you guys are simply tuning in.

383
00:18:35,319 --> 00:18:38,400
It's going to help us grow this show. That's our

384
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,960
goal to you know, just to get as many eyes

385
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,039
on this as possible and try to help you find winners.

386
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,279
But we will absolutely talk about your game here. And

387
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,200
this is actually a game that I don't think I'm

388
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,480
going to have a play here, but this will be

389
00:18:51,559 --> 00:18:54,160
one that, like I mean, these are two teams that

390
00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:56,440
I always kind of follow. I got to go out

391
00:18:56,519 --> 00:18:59,000
to Grand Canyon last year and get to a game.

392
00:18:59,079 --> 00:19:00,720
I can tell you that that's going to be a

393
00:19:00,799 --> 00:19:06,079
tremendous atmosphere tonight. And you know, for me, like this one,

394
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,319
I came right out on the number. Spare with me

395
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,720
for a second. I have I have notes all over

396
00:19:11,799 --> 00:19:15,039
the place, and I still handwrite, handwrite my notes out.

397
00:19:15,079 --> 00:19:18,240
I'm an old school like that. I can't type up notes.

398
00:19:18,319 --> 00:19:21,720
So I mean, I've just got chicken scratch all over.

399
00:19:21,599 --> 00:19:25,279
Speaker 3: The basics struggle. My hand gets tired when I sign

400
00:19:25,319 --> 00:19:25,680
a check.

401
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:29,680
Speaker 1: See now that's the thing. I haven't wrote a check

402
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,759
in a minute. You know, I don't think I've written

403
00:19:31,799 --> 00:19:35,160
I actually signed a check in quite some time. But

404
00:19:35,279 --> 00:19:38,160
I do write my notes out every day. And for

405
00:19:38,279 --> 00:19:40,680
this one, for me, I mean like it just came

406
00:19:40,759 --> 00:19:43,200
out right on the number. I had Grant Canyon minus fifteen.

407
00:19:44,319 --> 00:19:47,359
It's fourteen and a half. Listen, Youngstown State. I know

408
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,319
Brian's will probably have a close eye on Youngstown State

409
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,680
this year. That's a Horizon League team. I know he

410
00:19:52,799 --> 00:19:53,920
watches that league close.

411
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 3: We've been there.

412
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 1: I like what we have been there. That was That

413
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,160
was That's a story for another time. That is a

414
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,359
story for another time. That was probably one of the

415
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,799
oddest experiences I've had at any at any place yet.

416
00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,799
But yes, a good time right there. I like this

417
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,359
Penguins team though, like they've got a lot, like they

418
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,759
might win the Horizon this year. This is a league

419
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:18,240
that's a little bit down from what it's been. And

420
00:20:18,839 --> 00:20:22,839
you know, Jared Calhoun obviously leaves there. They were always

421
00:20:22,839 --> 00:20:24,759
going to have to like sort of reorganize. He was

422
00:20:24,799 --> 00:20:27,640
there for like seven years, and of course that last

423
00:20:28,079 --> 00:20:30,799
Youngstown team that he had was probably the best one

424
00:20:30,839 --> 00:20:32,920
that they've maybe ever had there, or at least in

425
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:37,279
recent memory. But I think Youngstown is going to be good.

426
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:39,799
You know Pitt. The game they played in the opener

427
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,559
against Pitt, they ended up not covering that game. They

428
00:20:42,839 --> 00:20:46,039
were also a fourteen and a half point underdog at

429
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:48,960
pit and that was Pitt just pulling away right at

430
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:50,680
the end of that game. I think that was a

431
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,319
more competitive game than the final score. It was a

432
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,839
six point game at half. I think Youngstown might maybe

433
00:20:55,839 --> 00:20:58,039
even let a little bit in the first half. So

434
00:20:58,759 --> 00:21:01,680
for me, what's tough here? Gcu Arena is going to

435
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,000
be popping. I mean, the Havocs they call them, Brian

436
00:21:05,079 --> 00:21:09,559
are the fans there, They're awesome. It's a cross country

437
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:15,240
Trip for Grand Canyon, So I lean toward GCU winning

438
00:21:15,319 --> 00:21:20,279
this game by margin. Garth your question of Grand Canyon

439
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,000
minus thirteen and a half, I think that's getting to

440
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,920
the territory. If you can get a thirteen or thirteen

441
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:28,119
and a half, I think it's starting to get playable

442
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,160
right there. I make the number fifteen. There wasn't enough

443
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,839
value for me to bet it that I want, you know,

444
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,000
with all the other games on the board, but I

445
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,799
slightly lean your way, so I'll say Grand Canyon is

446
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,079
the side I'd be on there at thirteen and a

447
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:43,319
half if you can get that number.

448
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:47,920
Speaker 3: I don't have a ton on this one. I thought

449
00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,160
it was right on the number as well, like my

450
00:21:50,279 --> 00:21:51,839
number is pretty much there, and I didn't see a

451
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,160
ton of value or anything that really actually stuck up

452
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:55,599
that made me want to bet this game. I don't

453
00:21:55,599 --> 00:21:58,319
know if Rob has something for the people, but this

454
00:21:58,480 --> 00:21:58,599
was no.

455
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,799
Speaker 1: We'll move on to a different one. I want to Uh,

456
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,799
it's a swizz Swiss says Adam's too young to know

457
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,519
about a checkbook. I'm going to be forty in July.

458
00:22:08,599 --> 00:22:10,440
A lot of people think I'm younger than that than

459
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,920
the baby face, but I'll be forty in July. So

460
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,119
I do remember the checkbook, I just don't. I don't.

461
00:22:17,279 --> 00:22:19,480
I don't remember the last time I actually wrote a check,

462
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,640
like someone was like, hey, bring a check, you know.

463
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:28,279
So Laurie says, Toledo, Ohio. Here whether it's terrible, yeah,

464
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,240
I don't know. Brian's already out in Ohio. Are you

465
00:22:30,279 --> 00:22:32,559
getting bad weather today or something? I mean, I just

466
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,640
assume that the drive on I ninety when you get

467
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:39,680
to like eerie Pennsylvania is gonna be miserable regardless. You know.

468
00:22:39,839 --> 00:22:42,519
Speaker 3: The uh, the sky was getting a little dark here

469
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:44,279
before I have but I've got I have the window

470
00:22:44,319 --> 00:22:46,079
blacked out so I can't even look out there right

471
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:48,960
now in here, So after I'm done, i'll double check.

472
00:22:49,039 --> 00:22:50,599
But it didn't look like it's gonna be a great day.

473
00:22:51,599 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 1: Colin, I'll throw Colin says anything on YOUTC and Antonio

474
00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,079
SIU Edwardsville. So I know the reason he's asking is

475
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,319
because this is is a day game, and we have

476
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,839
two daytime tips. I have an opinion on the other one.

477
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,519
So I'll just throw this out and you can feel

478
00:23:09,559 --> 00:23:12,200
free to just say no, I've got nothing, because I

479
00:23:12,279 --> 00:23:14,960
know that these are very niche games. But I will

480
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:20,359
throw out Columbia New Haven and Siue, Texas San and

481
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,720
Antonio to either of you. It's totally fine to pass

482
00:23:23,759 --> 00:23:25,799
because I've got an opinion on the Columbia game. But

483
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:27,720
if you want to throw anything out for the people

484
00:23:27,799 --> 00:23:31,200
looking for some degenerate day action, now is your chance

485
00:23:31,279 --> 00:23:31,599
to do it.

486
00:23:33,559 --> 00:23:36,640
Speaker 3: I'll can see the Florida rob Yeah.

487
00:23:36,799 --> 00:23:39,960
Speaker 4: You're silence. I will say this, Adam SIU Edwardsville.

488
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 2: While I don't have anything impertinent to say, I don't

489
00:23:43,519 --> 00:23:45,799
lead people in the wrong direction of these games. But

490
00:23:46,079 --> 00:23:48,920
SYU Edwardsville is a team because Belmont played a lot

491
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,599
of Ohio Valley basketball that I will during the year.

492
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 4: Likely have a lot to say about.

493
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,880
Speaker 2: But in this particular game, I'm just staring at it now,

494
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,640
the number because I had it scratched off up to

495
00:24:00,759 --> 00:24:05,200
fifty two, fifty three and a half and somewhere in there. Really,

496
00:24:05,279 --> 00:24:07,559
I can't steer anybody in a right in a in

497
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,960
a positive direction there, so I'm gonna hold off on that.

498
00:24:10,079 --> 00:24:13,559
But like I said, SIU Edwardsville is a team that

499
00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,279
you give us about a month and I'll have a

500
00:24:16,319 --> 00:24:18,680
little to say on them. UTSA is not a bad

501
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,759
squad either, but I'll pass on that one.

502
00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: So Colin, I will trade you the SIU Edwardsville game,

503
00:24:28,039 --> 00:24:29,799
which I don't have much of an opinion on. My

504
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,799
number was very close for something I did play. That's

505
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,839
also an afternoon game. So I laid and now it's

506
00:24:35,839 --> 00:24:37,799
looking like I got a pretty good number. But I

507
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,359
laid five and a half with Columbia. It's a one

508
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:44,640
pm game. They are at New Haven. That's a three

509
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,519
percent play for me. I'm not gonna put it in

510
00:24:46,599 --> 00:24:48,920
the parlay because of a little thing we like to

511
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,440
call shelf life. It's a one o'clock game, and by

512
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,559
the time some people see the show, we might be

513
00:24:54,759 --> 00:24:57,720
done with that game. So but I did play it

514
00:24:57,759 --> 00:24:59,559
at five and a half, which is where it was

515
00:24:59,599 --> 00:25:02,400
about it hour ago. So just to give you an

516
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,160
idea of the betting, So sort of how it went.

517
00:25:05,319 --> 00:25:10,200
We had Columbia opened six and a half, got up

518
00:25:10,279 --> 00:25:15,559
to seven seven like overnight to seven. Got someone probably

519
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,079
took new Haven. I don't know if it was a

520
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,240
fake or a setup, but knocked it all the way

521
00:25:19,279 --> 00:25:21,000
down to five and a half and now it looks

522
00:25:21,039 --> 00:25:23,440
like we're back at six and a half or seven

523
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,759
most places. So I want to talk about this game

524
00:25:26,759 --> 00:25:32,079
because this is a very interesting sort of look ahead

525
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,200
spot for a team that just came to Division one.

526
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,920
So New Haven now someone's going to need to explore.

527
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,200
I actually know why and how this happened. I didn't

528
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,599
until the other day I read about it. New Haven

529
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,480
has a home game at one o'clock tomorrow against Penn State.

530
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:52,039
That's right, the Penn State. The Nitney Lions from State

531
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:56,039
College are going to New Haven to play a road

532
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,279
game at one pm tomorrow. Now that to me, I

533
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,160
mean that would be the equivalent of them coming here

534
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,279
to play Lamoit like in a you know, glorified high

535
00:26:04,279 --> 00:26:08,200
school gym. I read about this and basically Mike Rhodes,

536
00:26:08,279 --> 00:26:12,160
Penn State head coach, is giving them the game so

537
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,279
they don't have to pay them, I believe, to come back.

538
00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,400
It's like it's almost like a way that he's saving

539
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,319
a little bit of coin for the athletic department. They're

540
00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,920
going to play a game on the road, and then

541
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,839
I think New Haven will give them the game the

542
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:28,839
next couple of years, but they won't have to cut

543
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,039
like the big By game check for it. So I

544
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,359
don't know if this is like how we pay players now,

545
00:26:34,799 --> 00:26:36,559
like you know, go on the road and play a

546
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,839
road game against a mid major so you don't have

547
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,279
to pay them the next year. But anyway, that is

548
00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:46,200
the basis of why that game's occurring. Interesting to me

549
00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:50,240
that they've also scheduled a game today also at a

550
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:54,559
one o'clock start, where they will play Columbia Brian Power.

551
00:26:54,599 --> 00:26:55,960
Does that sound like a little bit of a look

552
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:59,359
ahead spot to you? I mean it does, right, like

553
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,759
Adak against a Big ten team. Last year you were

554
00:27:03,799 --> 00:27:07,359
in Division two, life comes at you fast, like now

555
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,000
now you're gonna be hosting a Big ten team. They

556
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,400
also played Yukon on Monday, so like I'm just this

557
00:27:13,559 --> 00:27:16,519
is we got to get, you know, Happy birthday to Marco.

558
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,000
It was Marco d'angelo's birthday the other day. This sounds

559
00:27:19,039 --> 00:27:21,599
like a sandwich spot that he likes to talk about

560
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,720
right here where they just played their first ever Division

561
00:27:24,759 --> 00:27:27,400
one game on Monday against Yukon. It was on the road.

562
00:27:27,559 --> 00:27:29,519
I'm sure they got beat up a little bit, right,

563
00:27:29,599 --> 00:27:32,720
Like it's a it's a physical game. You got Penn

564
00:27:32,799 --> 00:27:35,240
State coming to town tomorrow, which is obviously going to

565
00:27:35,279 --> 00:27:37,839
be the game that you're more jazzed up for Big

566
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:39,880
ten team coming to play in you're a little gym,

567
00:27:40,519 --> 00:27:42,880
but you still have to play a pretty a Columbia

568
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,680
team that, in my opinion, is a lot better than

569
00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,640
you are. Right, Like, Columbia didn't work out for them

570
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,599
last year. Their best player was hurt for a lot

571
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,680
of the season. I think they're likely to improve this year.

572
00:27:53,079 --> 00:27:55,200
And like for me, when that got to five and

573
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,480
a half, I could you know my numbers nine and

574
00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,319
a half on this game? So I actually still think

575
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:01,799
at six and a half it's a good play. That's

576
00:28:01,839 --> 00:28:03,559
three percent play for me. I've got I've got a

577
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,440
few plays today, so I don't mind giving one on

578
00:28:05,559 --> 00:28:08,160
the show. But Colin, if you want some daytime action,

579
00:28:08,279 --> 00:28:10,599
I played Columbia minus five and a half and I

580
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:15,240
still like it where it is right now. Keith Landry

581
00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:17,960
says Columbia was a machine in non conference play last year.

582
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,599
They sure were right up until they played the University

583
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,839
of Albany, I believe and lost in their season went

584
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,000
off the rails. But they had a great non conference

585
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,759
last year as well. I want to get Rob back

586
00:28:27,799 --> 00:28:30,079
in the conversation here. Let's talk about This is an

587
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:33,880
interesting game and a very interesting line move here the

588
00:28:34,039 --> 00:28:37,119
NC State wolf Pack is this. Have they already won

589
00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:39,799
this game? Rob? Have they already won by twenty? Is

590
00:28:39,839 --> 00:28:41,559
what I want to know, because people are betting this

591
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,039
like this game is over and I'm having a hard

592
00:28:45,039 --> 00:28:48,119
time disting agreeing with them. But I mean, at this point,

593
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:49,880
it's getting out of hand. What do you think, u AB,

594
00:28:50,119 --> 00:28:50,720
NC State?

595
00:28:51,839 --> 00:28:53,759
Speaker 2: Well, I think we need to talk about it because

596
00:28:53,759 --> 00:28:58,480
it's my dear friend will Wade. The wire taps, the

597
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,240
tantrums at LSU, etc.

598
00:29:00,519 --> 00:29:00,759
Speaker 1: Etc.

599
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 2: But one thing we know about Will Wade. I mean, listen,

600
00:29:03,759 --> 00:29:05,599
he took his punishment. He went to McNeese and turn

601
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,559
McNeese into a tournament team, and now he's at NC

602
00:29:08,799 --> 00:29:12,839
State and talk about guys that just have a knack

603
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:14,680
for getting talent.

604
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 4: Into a program.

605
00:29:16,519 --> 00:29:21,119
Speaker 2: I mean Darien Williams and Trey Holloman Michigan State's point

606
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:25,279
guard last year. Holliman Williams from Texas Tech. The team

607
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,279
is stacked off of these transfers that he brought in here.

608
00:29:29,319 --> 00:29:31,759
They score one hundred and fourteen points in their first

609
00:29:31,799 --> 00:29:35,880
game against NC Central Play UAB, who lost all five

610
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:40,079
of their starters Andy Kennedy's team. He also did a

611
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:43,319
good job filling spots. He just didn't do it as

612
00:29:45,119 --> 00:29:50,680
as deeply with high quality recruits or higher echelon recruits.

613
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:54,359
He went to the JUCO some mid majors, but he

614
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,200
got a good squad here, and they score one hundred

615
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,359
and six against Mississippi Valley State, who we talked about

616
00:29:58,920 --> 00:29:59,839
a couple of days ago.

617
00:30:00,799 --> 00:30:02,079
Speaker 4: Whether they throw games or not.

618
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:05,039
Speaker 2: They're just a miserable basketball team from kind of six

619
00:30:05,119 --> 00:30:08,640
to fifty five doesn't really matter. But my point about

620
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,359
talking about this game here, Adam, was it necessarily to

621
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,319
go ahead and lay twenty and a half with North

622
00:30:15,359 --> 00:30:18,319
Carolina State, but rather to just focus in on their

623
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:20,400
team total. This is a game that's going to be

624
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,480
played at blistering pace. Andy Kennedy knows no other way.

625
00:30:24,039 --> 00:30:26,880
Will Wade likes to play defense, but they score a

626
00:30:27,119 --> 00:30:29,920
lot off of their defense, and I think the new

627
00:30:30,039 --> 00:30:32,279
backcourt of UAB could be in for a little bit

628
00:30:32,319 --> 00:30:35,240
of problem here where pressure defense is concerned handling against

629
00:30:35,279 --> 00:30:37,920
the pressure defense. I saw this number of guys and

630
00:30:38,039 --> 00:30:39,880
I'm going to try and look at it right now

631
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,880
as I speak. I thought their team total was ninety

632
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:46,000
one and a half, and to me, in a game

633
00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,160
like this, ninety one and a half seems a little

634
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,240
it's hard to say a little low. It sounds kind

635
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,119
of weird to say that, but to me it does.

636
00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,440
I can see NC State potentially hitting the one hundred

637
00:30:57,519 --> 00:31:02,519
mark in this game against UAB, where you know UB's

638
00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,359
only form of retaliation is to run back at you,

639
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,559
and I just don't know that he's got the quality

640
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:12,079
ball handlers and Indy Kennedy. It's great to beat Mississippi

641
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,480
Valley and get to one hundred and six, but I

642
00:31:14,519 --> 00:31:17,680
don't think you're getting very against NC State, and it's

643
00:31:17,839 --> 00:31:20,640
just such a major step up in class for them

644
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,119
as an offensive team or as a.

645
00:31:25,079 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 4: Ball handling team.

646
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,559
Speaker 2: I think in c State, if I had one look

647
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,160
in this game, it would be towards this team total

648
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:37,519
over which, as I see right now, is well, yeah,

649
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,240
ninety one and a half, right, is that what you.

650
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,119
Speaker 4: Guys are showing. I think they get to ninety two

651
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:41,599
or better.

652
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,279
Speaker 2: So the purpose for bringing that game up a was

653
00:31:44,359 --> 00:31:47,119
Will Wade and his recruits, which he recruited at maybe

654
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,240
a better level than anybody in the offseason, and be

655
00:31:50,519 --> 00:31:52,000
the pace this game is going to be played at

656
00:31:52,079 --> 00:31:53,440
NC State should get over that total.

657
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that. I wouldn't be surprised if

658
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,920
NC State just drops one hundred and wins by thirty.

659
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,119
My buddy Korby went to UAB and we're talking about

660
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,519
it the other day, like, I don't think he's like

661
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,319
overly high on them this year, which you know, he's

662
00:32:10,359 --> 00:32:14,519
a pretty keen basketball mind, especially from a betting perspective,

663
00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:18,000
So if that's how his take on his team, I

664
00:32:18,119 --> 00:32:20,039
kind of got to lean that way as well. And

665
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,960
also I went Bryan, I mean, you know, Missouri Valley State, Hey,

666
00:32:24,039 --> 00:32:27,079
we reviewed the tape. Well, you guys are fine. You's

667
00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:27,680
just awful.

668
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,599
Speaker 3: Like you know, that's the only thing they're guilty of

669
00:32:30,759 --> 00:32:33,400
is being a terrible, terrible basketball team. I mean right,

670
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,160
I mean it's the thing you gonna There's only one

671
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:36,759
place to find them every year, and that's at the

672
00:32:36,759 --> 00:32:38,839
bottom of the Ken Palm rankings every year.

673
00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: So that's I left out.

674
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,079
Speaker 2: I left out maybe the most important thing I should

675
00:32:44,079 --> 00:32:47,279
have led with after you went through your Columbia analysis.

676
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,119
Speaker 4: I'm actually probably.

677
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 2: The I would say, maybe the only person you'll ever

678
00:32:53,039 --> 00:32:55,680
meet that actually attended the University of new Haven and

679
00:32:55,759 --> 00:33:00,480
new Haven charging in west Haven, Connecticut back in nineteen

680
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,839
seventy nine my freshman year. So yeah, known for their

681
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:08,279
baseball in a Hall of fame head coaching Porky vi

682
00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,720
Era is what his nickname was, and he cut me.

683
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:13,759
I had two swings up at the place that I hit.

684
00:33:13,839 --> 00:33:16,119
The second one was a grand ball was on the cutlet.

685
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:17,559
So that was the end of that.

686
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 4: But yeah, new Haven University of Haven near and dear to.

687
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:25,279
Speaker 1: My heart, awesome. That's a new member to the NEEC,

688
00:33:25,599 --> 00:33:28,680
which is has basically become the conference you go to

689
00:33:28,839 --> 00:33:31,480
when you want to come to Division one from Division two.

690
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:35,200
It's like the feeder Conference. It's like the Transition League

691
00:33:35,279 --> 00:33:38,839
now the Northeast Conference. Pretty much most of those teams

692
00:33:39,039 --> 00:33:41,240
just came to D one a couple of years ago,

693
00:33:41,359 --> 00:33:45,319
and New Haven is the newest installation in that you know,

694
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,440
in that league. So it'll be fun to see them

695
00:33:48,079 --> 00:33:49,599
and see how they compete in there this year. But

696
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,200
I don't think today is a great spot. We're we're

697
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,039
thirty five minutes into the show. We don't have a

698
00:33:54,119 --> 00:33:56,119
parlay leg yet, so I'm gonna put Brian Power on

699
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,400
the spot and see if he's if he knows what

700
00:33:59,519 --> 00:34:00,960
he wants to used for the parlay?

701
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:02,839
Speaker 4: Yes, do you do?

702
00:34:03,599 --> 00:34:03,799
Speaker 3: Yes?

703
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: I do.

704
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 3: By the way, breaking is Titan CT apparently also went

705
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,440
to new Haven. I mean did not have I did

706
00:34:11,519 --> 00:34:16,360
not have too new Haven. I love the same That's crazy,

707
00:34:16,679 --> 00:34:19,239
all right, but Trig, you teed me up. Yes, just

708
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,079
to recap if you're new here, if you missed it

709
00:34:21,119 --> 00:34:23,559
being in the show. Yesterday we won our parlay of

710
00:34:23,639 --> 00:34:27,800
the day again, third time in four days. To kick

711
00:34:27,840 --> 00:34:30,800
off here, I say, tip off this season very impressive

714
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:40,360
as well. Yesterday my leg was Ohio the Alma mater

715
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,599
o bias there. I thought it was a good spot.

716
00:34:42,599 --> 00:34:44,400
I thought it was a good by Low Cell high spot.

717
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:48,880
I found Trig and Rob a matchup on today's board

718
00:34:49,079 --> 00:34:52,920
that reminds me a lot of the play yesterday on

719
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:57,480
ou Let's talk about Troy and Furman. Furman not a

720
00:34:57,519 --> 00:35:00,320
good opening game performance. They get blown out by twenty

721
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,079
six against High Point. Trigg, I think you talked about

722
00:35:03,079 --> 00:35:06,800
that yesterday or the day before that. Maybe the SoCon

723
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,280
is going to be down this year. A lot of

724
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:10,719
the contenders there certainly, Look, you don't want to lose

725
00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,559
your opener by twenty six points. No one does. I

726
00:35:13,639 --> 00:35:16,400
will point out though, Furman wrong end of turnover varianto

727
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,679
that game twenty two to six, So they had problems

728
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,639
holding on to the basketball and they were not forcing

729
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,280
turnovers either. Now they're taking on a Troy team. What

730
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:29,960
did Troy do in its opener, Well, they went to

731
00:35:30,039 --> 00:35:34,079
Kent State and won outright in overtime. We talked about

732
00:35:34,079 --> 00:35:37,159
obviously still early in the year. Okay, but you know

733
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,719
you're off an overtime game, you win an overtime. I

734
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,119
always kind of think it's a letdown spot next time out,

735
00:35:43,679 --> 00:35:47,559
especially because the Troy team guys that was not good

736
00:35:47,679 --> 00:35:49,320
at shooting the three last year. In fact that Troy

737
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,119
was quite bad at shooting the three last year. We're

738
00:35:52,119 --> 00:35:54,880
talking about bottom twenty five in the country in three

739
00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,239
point percentage last season. Well, they went twelve of twenty

740
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:00,519
six against Kent State. That was the difference that game.

741
00:36:01,079 --> 00:36:04,719
Also backing up a few seconds ago, I talked about

742
00:36:05,159 --> 00:36:07,599
how Furman was on the wrong end of turnover variants

743
00:36:07,679 --> 00:36:09,920
in the opener against High Point. Well, this is a

744
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,559
Troy team that turned it over a lot last year

745
00:36:13,559 --> 00:36:15,280
as well, in addition to not being a good three

746
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:19,880
point shooting team. You add all this up, let's bilow

747
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,880
on Furman. Let's sell high on Troy. There is a

748
00:36:25,079 --> 00:36:28,000
rogue one and a half out there at fan Duel

749
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,719
Trig I'm seeing. But in the interest of fairness, let's

750
00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:32,719
go two and a half here.

751
00:36:33,119 --> 00:36:35,079
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, Brian, you know something we talked

752
00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:38,280
about on total basis, like since because it's a three team,

753
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,280
or if you want to go money line, that works too.

754
00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:41,559
I mean, we are a good point.

755
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,599
Speaker 3: Well, you know what, let's just do that here. Let's

756
00:36:43,679 --> 00:36:47,119
let's do that. Let's go Furman money line for my

757
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:49,519
leg of the parlay. Thank you very much.

758
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 1: You know you're not really taking a bad number because

759
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:57,519
you know, very good point. Brian Leonard would argue that,

760
00:36:57,639 --> 00:36:59,760
He's like, it's still the same odds in the parlor.

761
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:01,400
But it's like what I The way I look at

762
00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:03,280
it is it's like we're building a three team or

763
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:06,320
we're gonna have plus money on the parlay anyway, So

764
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:07,679
if you didn't want, if you don't want to take

765
00:37:07,679 --> 00:37:10,280
a bad number right there, just go firm in on

766
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,599
the money line, and I'll just throw one thing out

767
00:37:12,679 --> 00:37:15,559
on that game, like you know, if someone's gonna adjust

768
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,719
from like I do want to cut Furman a little

769
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:21,480
bit of slack for like sort of how that game

770
00:37:21,519 --> 00:37:24,400
played out. That was a neutral site game as part

771
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,599
of the Field of sixty eight sort of opening thing.

772
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,239
I think we saw sloppy play in some of those

773
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,159
other games as well, so it's like their guards just

774
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,079
turned it over a ton. It was just a very

775
00:37:35,199 --> 00:37:38,559
sloppy performance where they got down and kind of got

776
00:37:38,639 --> 00:37:40,920
down big, and I feel like they just could never

777
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,840
get back into the game. But like, Richie's as good

778
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,079
as a coach as they're gonna find. And to me,

779
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:49,480
like Troy, they've got the talent and the and the

780
00:37:49,679 --> 00:37:51,679
they can pressure the ball as well. Like it's it's

781
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,840
gonna be a good matchup. But he he's one coach

782
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,360
where I've I've over the years I sort of trust

783
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,199
him to like tweak some things right the shit. And

784
00:38:01,199 --> 00:38:04,400
I think someone maybe it was Keith, that's our buddy,

785
00:38:04,440 --> 00:38:06,400
Keith Bayou Betts Landry. I'm gonna pull his comment up

786
00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,880
here because I have no opinion on that. But if

787
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:13,119
you need to know something about Southeast Louisiana basketball. Keith

788
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,599
is your guy, so we'll read that off. But I

789
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:19,159
think he told me Furman's got a new arena that

790
00:38:19,199 --> 00:38:20,599
they're opening tonight. Is that true?

791
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:20,880
Speaker 3: Yes?

792
00:38:21,079 --> 00:38:21,679
Speaker 1: Is there any true?

793
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 3: Yes? Yes, that is true. That is true. So yes,

794
00:38:24,519 --> 00:38:26,159
the new arena bump.

795
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:32,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, it is kind of a Listen, I'm going

796
00:38:32,079 --> 00:38:33,880
off the top of my head. But like, I'll like

797
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,599
Charlton State tomorrow night because they they open their new

798
00:38:36,679 --> 00:38:39,360
arena at home. I know Fairfield when they open their

799
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:43,239
new one destroyed whoever they were playing. I think Baylor

800
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:47,239
when they opened Foster Pavilion won by like forty against Cornell.

801
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,639
So like, listen, new building, you've had a chance to

802
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,480
practice in it. You know the other team may have

803
00:38:52,559 --> 00:38:55,039
been practicing someone like you know there, it's a thing.

804
00:38:55,679 --> 00:38:57,880
I think there's something to that. I'll give Furman a

805
00:38:58,079 --> 00:39:03,679
slight bump for that, all right, And Keith, I have

806
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,519
he says I got one for y'all. I fully expected

807
00:39:07,599 --> 00:39:12,480
him to say y'all as well. But Southeast Louisiana UL

808
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:15,880
under one thirty seven and a half. I'm literally just

809
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,679
reading his comment because these are teams that I would

810
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:22,119
be texting him about anyway. He says, lape At hired,

811
00:39:22,199 --> 00:39:24,559
So that's actually Louisiana. I don't think we call them

812
00:39:24,599 --> 00:39:28,880
lafay At anymore, but Louisiana hired a Houston assistant who

813
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:31,960
will bring that tough defensive style to lapay At. And

814
00:39:32,199 --> 00:39:35,079
Sila does not have a lot of scores. This could

815
00:39:35,119 --> 00:39:38,199
be a rock fight sixty five to sixty one. I

816
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:40,159
know Rob kind of likes the new coach in a

817
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:43,599
new play angle. Thank you, Keith. I have zero to

818
00:39:43,639 --> 00:39:47,360
add to that, but I trust your handicap there, and

819
00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:49,199
so if you were looking for that game, that is

820
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,719
your h that's going to be your opinion. A little

821
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:56,559
guest handicap for mister Bayou Betts. All right, let's go

822
00:39:56,679 --> 00:40:00,559
back to the chat. We still we will. We will

823
00:40:00,639 --> 00:40:03,639
walk into parlay legs over the next twenty minutes. You know,

824
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,719
I'll go to Rob. Do you have any idea what

825
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,159
you want to use yet? Or have you looked? Have

826
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:08,960
you decided?

827
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:12,599
Speaker 2: Well? I haven't decided, but I think we should throw

828
00:40:12,679 --> 00:40:15,119
this game out there at him because probably all three

829
00:40:15,199 --> 00:40:16,639
of us will have It's one of the better.

830
00:40:16,599 --> 00:40:17,440
Speaker 4: Games of the night.

831
00:40:17,679 --> 00:40:21,639
Speaker 2: Utah State DCU on a neutral in Frisco, Texas. Phil

832
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:27,440
Martelli Junior the new head coach at DCU, and man,

833
00:40:27,559 --> 00:40:31,199
did they play Brian's style fast In that first game.

834
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:37,280
VCU again pressure filled up and down the floor. Utah

835
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:40,039
State a team that returns a whole batch of starters

836
00:40:40,079 --> 00:40:42,800
off a twenty eight and sixteam, and they can shoot

837
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,719
it a little bit. Utah State's one of those that

838
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:49,920
lives by the NBA Boston Celtic theory volume threes, analytics,

839
00:40:50,119 --> 00:40:51,960
chuck up the threes, and they've got guys that can

840
00:40:52,039 --> 00:40:55,000
make them. They don't play at the same exact pace

841
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,039
as VCU, but to get over a number like this,

842
00:40:58,679 --> 00:41:01,679
you don't necessarily have to have two fast paced teams

843
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,480
if the one that's a little more methodical is so

844
00:41:04,679 --> 00:41:07,800
efficient offensively, which is what you toss data is one

845
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,920
thing that worried me, guys real quick here, and I

846
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:13,159
think this will change tonight. You toss State in that

847
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:17,360
opening box score, you'll find that they only shot nine

848
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,960
free throws. Again, it was a cakewalk type game. But

849
00:41:21,079 --> 00:41:24,719
when you play VCU, it just seems like everybody lives

850
00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:27,320
on the foul line. Like VCU plays fast and files.

851
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,360
You file them because you can't keep up, et cetera,

852
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,880
et cetera. You get a lot of points generated from

853
00:41:31,960 --> 00:41:33,719
the free throw line on top of the points that

854
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,079
you're gonna get off of layups, off of threes, et cetera.

855
00:41:37,199 --> 00:41:40,239
So this game, to me, it's been back up a

856
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:42,679
little bit one sixty one and a half. And again,

857
00:41:44,639 --> 00:41:48,719
you know, neutral rims sometimes site backlines, et cetera, et cetera.

858
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,840
But to me, that's sort of become a thing of

859
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:55,159
the past that used to work in a lot of instances,

860
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:57,679
but nowadays these kids tend to shoot lights out no

861
00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,599
matter where they are. I think this game might get

862
00:42:00,639 --> 00:42:02,320
over here, guys, I'm not going to use it as

863
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:06,840
the parlay leg I sort of lean toward Utah State

864
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:12,079
as a side, just because they're the more cohesive group.

865
00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:16,119
Phil Martelli's brought transfers into that program and they played

866
00:42:16,159 --> 00:42:19,599
well for him all right off the bat. They'll play quick,

867
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:22,360
but I think sometimes quick can lead to that one

868
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,880
or two extra mistakes that cost you a game that's

869
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:26,239
priced in this price range.

870
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 4: So I do think it.

871
00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,880
Speaker 2: Gets over That would be my first look, and then secondly,

872
00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:32,119
I'd probably look towards Utah State, but that should be

873
00:42:32,159 --> 00:42:33,039
a tremendous game.

874
00:42:36,559 --> 00:42:40,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean was you know VCU pressed a lot

875
00:42:40,199 --> 00:42:42,400
in that opening game, so it looks like you're going

876
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,519
to get the fill Martelli Bryant sort of craziness, but

877
00:42:46,679 --> 00:42:50,599
keeping some of the principles of like VCU basketball, heavy pressure,

878
00:42:51,199 --> 00:42:54,760
havoc style play. Yeah, my number was pretty much on

879
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,559
the nose with you. I have Utah State minits one

880
00:42:57,599 --> 00:43:00,519
and a half. I believe it opened to that's probably

881
00:43:00,639 --> 00:43:02,960
right about where it is. So that is a neutral

882
00:43:03,039 --> 00:43:05,880
court in Frisco, Texas. Likely no play for me, but

883
00:43:06,039 --> 00:43:08,280
will that will be a great watch. That's definitely one

884
00:43:09,079 --> 00:43:13,800
to tune into. All right, Cody, can we get a

885
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:17,920
breakdown in the wake Forest game? So this is one

886
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:19,880
where it's like I just kind of like default to

887
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:21,960
Brian on these types of games because I feel like

888
00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:25,679
we've seen these quite a bit where it's like heavy favorite,

889
00:43:26,119 --> 00:43:30,159
they're at home, kind of tough to like, you know,

890
00:43:30,519 --> 00:43:33,239
find a way at these like twenty plus point favorites. Now,

891
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,760
I will point out this is a rare occurrence where

892
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:38,159
the dog is taking some money. Looks like this one

893
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,079
open twenty one and a half, now down to eighteen

894
00:43:41,159 --> 00:43:43,840
and a half. Some places, but the over has gone

895
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,840
the other way. It's actually gone up. So I've got

896
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:49,599
nothing there, Brian, anything, You've been good in the team

897
00:43:49,639 --> 00:43:51,320
totals in these type of teams. But I don't know

898
00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:52,000
if that's one that.

899
00:43:52,159 --> 00:43:54,320
Speaker 3: I was gonna say based on the market. I think

900
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,159
you just want to look at more ahead maybe team

901
00:43:56,199 --> 00:43:58,480
total over. I mean, they're gonna have to put points

902
00:43:58,480 --> 00:44:01,039
on the board if they're gonna cover this number, right, guys.

903
00:44:01,119 --> 00:44:04,599
I mean that's just common sense. It is interesting what

904
00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:06,519
you see because normally, I mean a lot of these

905
00:44:06,559 --> 00:44:09,480
games we talked about this week early, you know, it's

906
00:44:09,519 --> 00:44:12,679
been you know, favorite and over have sort of been correlated.

907
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,719
Here it's sort of a different situation. So all I

908
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:17,880
can tell you is that the market is telling you

909
00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:20,559
that Morehead, you know, might be putting up some points here.

910
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:23,280
Let me do a little more deep digg in on

911
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,679
this one and and I'll see if I can put

912
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:29,519
some some facts to that mindset here. But that the yeah,

913
00:44:29,559 --> 00:44:31,119
I mean that that it's pretty clear that that's what

914
00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,440
the market is saying on that game. Let me just

915
00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,480
take a look here at the box scores and see

916
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,440
if I can come up with anything else for you.

917
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:42,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, and while you're doing that one, I'm gonna I'm

918
00:44:42,079 --> 00:44:44,840
gonna go to Jake's sort of question. He says, Longwood

919
00:44:44,880 --> 00:44:49,519
to cover. I listen, any bet against Pitt Right now,

920
00:44:49,559 --> 00:44:52,760
I'm pretty much fine with I thought that they now

921
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,039
my probably the only issue I have here is that

922
00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:58,599
not nearly as high on Longwood this year as I

923
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,440
was last year or the last couple years. So griff Aldrich,

924
00:45:01,599 --> 00:45:05,639
Longwood head coach, left in the offseason to join his

925
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:10,679
college roommate I believe college buddy Ryan Odum at Virginia.

926
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:14,840
So Longwood basically was one of those school programs that

927
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,000
kind of lost their head coach. I don't think they

928
00:45:17,079 --> 00:45:20,159
really expected to, but he said I'd rather be an

929
00:45:20,159 --> 00:45:24,360
assistant at Virginia and do that with my boy Ryan Odum.

930
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:26,280
And so they've got a new coach, and I'm just

931
00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:29,159
not as nearly as I felt like they were going

932
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:31,519
somewhat in the wrong direction last year. That was a

933
00:45:31,559 --> 00:45:33,679
team that I feel like underachieved a little bit. So

934
00:45:34,639 --> 00:45:36,920
like when I look at Pitt and they managed to

935
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:40,760
beat Youngstown State by fifteen, to me, like I'd much

936
00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,920
rather have Youngstown State than Longwood. Yeah, I'm only getting

937
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:47,360
like another point in this game, and I know it

938
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:51,480
opened seventeen. I would have probably leaned toward Longwood at

939
00:45:51,519 --> 00:45:54,280
the opening number of seventeen, but you're down at fifteen

940
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,920
and a half sixteen. Let's put it this way. I

941
00:45:57,920 --> 00:45:59,880
wouldn't take the favorite there. I think Pitt could be

942
00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:02,960
really bad this year, so it would be dog or pass.

943
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,280
Just wanted to get a thought out on Longwood right there,

944
00:46:07,119 --> 00:46:08,039
just real quick.

945
00:46:08,119 --> 00:46:11,679
Speaker 3: Morehead shot the lights out. And now they played Midway University.

946
00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:15,039
Troubling is that they gave up fifty six percent shooting

947
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:17,960
in that game as well. If you're giving a fifty

948
00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:20,440
six percent to a non D one opponent, that's bad.

949
00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,800
That that that does worry me a little bit about

950
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:27,239
the defense. Now, the wake Forest game got to one

951
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:32,360
sixty two despite twenty seven percent three point shooting for

952
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:37,360
both teams. Them an American, so I definitely can understand

953
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:41,719
why the overs taking money here. Again, Morehead state, the

954
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:43,519
thing that would worry me is the defense here, So

955
00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:46,599
you know, again, I guess I would just circle back

956
00:46:46,599 --> 00:46:49,320
to the Morehead team total. Maybe that's what the market's saying.

957
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,920
Speaker 1: Steve Duke. Yeah, Longwood is in Farmville Virginia and it

958
00:46:54,079 --> 00:46:56,800
is a from what I hear, I believe Aaron Kid's

959
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,280
been to a couple of games there. It is a

960
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:03,119
gorgeous campus and they have a beautiful, like very new arena.

961
00:47:03,199 --> 00:47:05,880
It's it's on my list to get down to. But yeah,

962
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:09,400
Longwood and Farmville, Virginia and a good chance to promo ourselves.

963
00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:12,599
I'm gonna go. I'll let Brian do the the sales part.

964
00:47:12,679 --> 00:47:15,320
But I'll say this, I'll say, you see how I

965
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,360
put you on the spot there, I like, I'll let you.

966
00:47:17,639 --> 00:47:19,559
You'll let you do the sales part. But for slick

996
00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:41,719
afternoon when I am done with the best betting show ever,

997
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,920
as I'm guesting there with Joe Ranari after here.

998
00:48:45,079 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 1: So I'm like, this is like when we're at you know,

999
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:50,280
You're at dinner and at your time to order, and

1000
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:51,800
I like, I want to look at the menu for

1001
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:53,519
another minute. So I'm going to Rob and I'm going

1002
00:48:53,559 --> 00:48:55,400
to put him on the spot and tell him we

1003
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:57,519
need a parlay leg from him so I can think

1004
00:48:57,599 --> 00:48:58,639
for another five minutes.

1005
00:48:58,880 --> 00:48:59,559
Speaker 2: So all right.

1006
00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:01,960
Speaker 4: I had a couple here in mind, guys.

1007
00:49:03,559 --> 00:49:06,800
Speaker 2: The first one we've already talked about, and it was

1008
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,159
the NC State game where I just feel like, Will Wade,

1009
00:49:09,199 --> 00:49:10,639
we'll pour it on. But I think I'm going to

1010
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:13,440
defer to another team total here.

1011
00:49:13,559 --> 00:49:14,639
Speaker 4: You know, we've seen so.

1012
00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:19,440
Speaker 2: Many one hundred point outputs from power teams and just

1013
00:49:19,559 --> 00:49:23,159
sheer blowouts to start the season. And one that hits

1014
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:26,320
me here is Kentucky Valpo Valpos coming in with eleven

1015
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:31,360
new players into rupp Arena. Mark Pope has the roster

1016
00:49:31,599 --> 00:49:34,800
his way this year. Kentucky's very highly rated. Their team

1017
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:38,880
total is excessive tonight. The best you can find is

1018
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:42,239
ninety four and a half. Moreover, you'll find ninety five

1019
00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,920
and a half. But to me, this game, I mean

1020
00:49:45,079 --> 00:49:48,119
Kentucky might put together a sixty point half in this game.

1021
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,559
So for me, I think I'm going to pass on

1022
00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:54,880
the North Carolina State game, as far as North Carolina

1023
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:56,679
State game, excuse me as far as their team total

1024
00:49:57,079 --> 00:50:00,960
and roll with UK over valpo with your guys again,

1025
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:05,320
I'm seeing mostly universal ninety five and a half guys

1026
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,280
shop it though, because I do see a couple of

1027
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:09,119
straight ninety four and a half's out there.

1028
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 4: Ninety six to me doesn't.

1029
00:50:11,199 --> 00:50:12,920
Speaker 2: Seem like that big of a deal.

1030
00:50:13,199 --> 00:50:14,320
Speaker 4: The way we've seen.

1031
00:50:14,159 --> 00:50:19,079
Speaker 2: These up tempo teams knock over the hundred mark, I

1032
00:50:19,119 --> 00:50:22,440
would say a consistent basis, but on a more more

1033
00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:24,800
consistent basis than what I've seen in past years. Have

1034
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,360
never seen this many hundreds put up. So give me

1035
00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:29,760
Kentucky team total, guys, is our second leg of the

1036
00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:33,079
parlay over, and I'll use the universal number ninety five

1037
00:50:33,159 --> 00:50:35,960
and a half. Good luck to others who are going

1038
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:37,679
to search for it, because you can find ninety four

1039
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:38,039
and a half.

1040
00:50:39,679 --> 00:50:41,800
Speaker 1: Rob, I mean, you know there's something to be said

1041
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:46,000
for like you got a fresh team, you've been practicing

1042
00:50:46,119 --> 00:50:48,559
for a couple of months, You're just excited to get

1043
00:50:48,599 --> 00:50:52,400
out there. And I do feel like these first games

1044
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:56,079
out you tend to see like the team like Kentucky

1045
00:50:56,199 --> 00:50:58,000
drop one hundred. I mean Texas Tech did it for

1046
00:50:58,079 --> 00:51:00,480
the other night without like they're two beast players. It

1047
00:51:00,599 --> 00:51:03,519
was just like, you know, Florida State kept their starters

1048
00:51:03,559 --> 00:51:05,880
in a little longer to really run it up and

1049
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:08,000
get over one hundred. So yeah, I still think we're

1050
00:51:08,039 --> 00:51:12,039
in the time of the season where it's like you're

1051
00:51:12,039 --> 00:51:14,800
probably going to see those triple digits. It's you know,

1052
00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,800
a couple of weeks from now, you might see them

1053
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:18,719
pump the brakes, you might see them get reserves in

1054
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,079
in these situations. But I just think it's too early

1055
00:51:21,159 --> 00:51:23,079
in the year and they just want to go show

1056
00:51:23,119 --> 00:51:24,800
out for the fans a lot of times.

1057
00:51:24,880 --> 00:51:27,000
Speaker 2: So yeah, And you know, I saw an interview the

1058
00:51:27,079 --> 00:51:29,559
other night Adam post game, and I forget which team

1059
00:51:29,639 --> 00:51:31,760
it was, so it was a team that scored over

1060
00:51:31,800 --> 00:51:35,159
one hundred, and the quote from the player was, we're

1061
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,440
just sick and tired of play each other in practice.

1062
00:51:37,639 --> 00:51:38,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, good point.

1063
00:51:38,519 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 2: We just want to get out there and beat the

1064
00:51:40,039 --> 00:51:44,159
heck out of somebody else. And unfortunately for Valpo, they're

1065
00:51:44,199 --> 00:51:47,440
going to march in you know what's projected to be

1066
00:51:47,519 --> 00:51:50,480
the worst roster in the Missouri Valley this year. So

1067
00:51:51,119 --> 00:51:53,280
I think Kentucky may take out and they play with

1068
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:57,880
enough pace and enough defense of pressure to probably get

1069
00:51:57,920 --> 00:51:59,000
them to ninety six years.

1070
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:00,440
Speaker 4: So that'll be my end of it today.

1071
00:52:02,599 --> 00:52:04,920
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna I'm just gonna do it, ladies

1072
00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:09,119
and gentlemen. I'm gonna throw the Sianna Saints into the parlay.

1073
00:52:09,519 --> 00:52:12,280
I've got my shirt, I'm ready for game day. They

1074
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,119
are at Brown tonight, and so I do I think

1075
00:52:15,159 --> 00:52:17,960
I've I have three client plays already locked in. I

1076
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:19,559
did give you one on the show earlier, and to

1077
00:52:19,639 --> 00:52:23,400
be perfectly honest, like I probably would have put Columbia

1078
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:25,599
in the parlay if it wasn't a one o'clock game,

1079
00:52:25,639 --> 00:52:28,079
But also that number moved a little bit, and I

1080
00:52:28,159 --> 00:52:30,199
think you know Steve Duke in the chats kind of

1081
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:33,519
saying like you know, you might be able to get

1082
00:52:33,519 --> 00:52:35,400
a better number in play, like yeah, like I don't

1083
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,760
really want to put like a bad number in there,

1084
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:40,360
and then also a bad number that like people coming

1085
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:43,199
to the show and watching it at three pm. The

1086
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:47,000
game's over. So I'll use the alma mater. Brian Power

1087
00:52:47,039 --> 00:52:49,239
got it done with his alma mater last night with Ohaio.

1088
00:52:49,679 --> 00:52:51,880
So I'm gonna go Sienna. We'll use the money line.

1089
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,320
It's it's like minus one thirty five is what I'm

1090
00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:57,320
seeing a lot of places, and like, here's the deal.

1091
00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:01,360
They're at Brown tonight. They opened as a slight underdog,

1092
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:04,400
which I thought was ridiculous, and that was quickly quickly gone.

1093
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,239
So my number is right in mind with where the

1094
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,960
market is. Right now, I have Cianna minus two, and

1095
00:53:10,079 --> 00:53:12,360
that's where the number is. I think if this went

1096
00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:14,599
back to Pick, I might add this to my client card.

1097
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,760
But the reality is this Cianna is just so much

1098
00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:20,159
better than they were last year. I think the market

1099
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:23,199
is I don't think people really know how good this

1100
00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,880
team is. I think they're so much better than anyone's

1101
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,519
giving them credit for. We talked about them on Monday.

1102
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:32,079
I had I had Bryant like a lums and fans

1103
00:53:32,159 --> 00:53:34,480
and my mentions on Monday. Haven't heard from them since

1104
00:53:34,559 --> 00:53:37,599
because I was a maath not even close. The people

1105
00:53:37,679 --> 00:53:40,840
saying Brian gonna win that game wasn't even close. Brown

1106
00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,440
is worse in my opinion than they were last year,

1107
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,400
and still a very well coached team. But remember like

1108
00:53:46,679 --> 00:53:49,199
ken O Lily was was really that team, you know,

1109
00:53:50,039 --> 00:53:53,000
like he carried them and I think Brown has sort

1110
00:53:53,039 --> 00:53:55,079
of you know, from go back to that Brown team

1111
00:53:55,199 --> 00:53:58,360
two years ago. Yet ken o' lily, you had awsu

1112
00:53:58,559 --> 00:54:01,360
Anana who ended up. I think it like Grand Canyon,

1113
00:54:01,639 --> 00:54:04,119
the kid that's at Saint Louis now, some really good

1114
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:06,519
talent has left that team in the last couple of years,

1115
00:54:07,039 --> 00:54:10,920
and I think they're actually probably you're probably gonna see

1116
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,880
them finish closer to the bottom of the IVY. One

1117
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:17,840
thing that like again is not being accounted for. Tasmin Goodrick,

1118
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:21,960
Sianna's new big He's tremendous. He looked awesome against Bryant.

1119
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:24,840
They've got the guards. I truly believe Sianna is just

1120
00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,880
gonna be a money maker until the market catches up.

1121
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:29,679
And I don't think they've caught up. Yeah, even they're

1122
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:32,440
catching up in real time. Moving this from like Sianna

1123
00:54:32,480 --> 00:54:35,880
plus two to minus two. But again, like you know

1124
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:39,880
that game last year Sianna won on their home floor.

1125
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,000
They came back and won that game, And I just

1126
00:54:42,079 --> 00:54:45,039
think last year's Brown team was better than this year's.

1127
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:48,760
This year Sianna team is much better than last year.

1128
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:52,199
So we'll go Siana moneyline and see if the boys

1129
00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:55,840
can get it done tonight. We have five minutes left.

1130
00:54:57,119 --> 00:55:00,000
I'll throw this so so Jace, I'll give this to you, guys.

1131
00:55:00,039 --> 00:55:03,039
I don't know if anyone will have an opinion here,

1132
00:55:03,079 --> 00:55:05,440
but I know this isn't Rob's sort of region, so

1133
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,079
he's just asking a general question thoughts on Delaware this year,

1134
00:55:09,119 --> 00:55:11,119
And it's an interesting question because they moved to a

1135
00:55:11,199 --> 00:55:16,079
new conference. They play a D two school I think today,

1136
00:55:16,559 --> 00:55:18,880
But like Rob, I have them at the bottom of

1137
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:20,840
their new league. I'm not expecting much from them. I

1138
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:22,599
didn't know if you had a take since you're in

1139
00:55:22,679 --> 00:55:23,159
that region.

1140
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:27,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, real quick on Delaware. It's definitely going to be

1141
00:55:27,159 --> 00:55:30,480
a down year according to most local.

1142
00:55:31,679 --> 00:55:32,760
Speaker 1: You know media here.

1143
00:55:35,079 --> 00:55:39,719
Speaker 2: But you know, again, with these teams like Delaware, first

1144
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:41,840
of all, I think the jump we saw it in football.

1145
00:55:42,519 --> 00:55:46,920
They's somewhat competitive and they're not good enough to win games.

1146
00:55:47,039 --> 00:55:49,039
Yet it could be the same deal with Delaware here.

1147
00:55:49,079 --> 00:55:51,000
I'm interested to see what price range they're going to

1148
00:55:51,039 --> 00:55:53,280
be held in by odds makers at them, because that

1149
00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:55,039
will make all the difference in the world. What we

1150
00:55:55,199 --> 00:55:59,480
do is around numbers more than specifically talented. So as

1151
00:55:59,519 --> 00:56:03,239
a very very vague outlook on Delaware, it's a lower

1152
00:56:03,320 --> 00:56:08,320
echelon conference team. It's a team that can, in underdog

1153
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:10,920
roles be bet on. This year, We'll see how it

1154
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:14,199
goes first couple of games out, but beyond that, it's

1155
00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:16,159
hard to tell with them right now. They've been better

1156
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:18,800
in the past, and they've been higher scoring in the past.

1157
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:21,800
I think that's the biggest key here is they probably

1158
00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:23,840
won't be as high scoring, real fast. I want to

1159
00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:27,119
throw the tidbit out to you guys. Worst road trip

1160
00:56:27,639 --> 00:56:29,639
of the night here, I got to give it to

1161
00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:34,480
Chattanooga who goes to Moraga, California to go marries in

1162
00:56:34,679 --> 00:56:39,199
that gym against Randy Bennett's team with zero starters back.

1163
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:40,000
Speaker 4: And it's interesting.

1164
00:56:40,519 --> 00:56:45,039
Speaker 2: In a couple of preseason publications, you'll find Chattanooga listed

1165
00:56:45,119 --> 00:56:47,960
as the top team in the Southern without any without

1166
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:52,400
any starters coming back, but their style doesn't fit what

1167
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:53,599
Saint Mary's is.

1168
00:56:53,599 --> 00:56:55,599
Speaker 5: Going to do to them, and going to that place

1169
00:56:55,679 --> 00:56:57,440
and looking at that gym, they're going to be like

1170
00:56:57,599 --> 00:56:59,719
where now that they played these huge arenas in the

1171
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:04,239
sub But you know, Maraga is a different place, Rob.

1172
00:57:04,119 --> 00:57:06,400
Speaker 1: I have I had a little tidbit written down about

1173
00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:09,119
that game. Colin Mholland did not play in their opener,

1174
00:57:09,519 --> 00:57:11,800
and I don't know why or what he was held

1175
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:13,840
out for, but if he is not on the floor

1176
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:17,079
tonight for Chattanooga, they are in big trouble and in

1177
00:57:17,320 --> 00:57:20,599
total under. Yeah. Like, the one thing I'll say about

1178
00:57:20,639 --> 00:57:23,760
Saint Mary's though, is like if you cannot get them

1179
00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:26,119
out of what they want to do, you're one hundred

1180
00:57:26,119 --> 00:57:28,599
percent losing by double digits. It's like, go ask Saint

1181
00:57:28,679 --> 00:57:33,199
Thomas how that worked out. So yeah, game has.

1182
00:57:33,159 --> 00:57:35,199
Speaker 2: Pushed at him from twelve and a half to fourteen

1183
00:57:35,280 --> 00:57:38,199
and a half in favor of Saint Mary's, which could

1184
00:57:38,239 --> 00:57:40,280
indicate the injury still exists.

1185
00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,719
Speaker 3: For a chat and Am I say, sixty five and

1186
00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:44,840
a half is that team total for chat Nooga? I

1187
00:57:44,880 --> 00:57:47,760
could see them being held under that number? Yeah, there

1188
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:48,000
we go.

1189
00:57:48,559 --> 00:57:52,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean with no with although with Mhaland out,

1190
00:57:52,719 --> 00:57:55,400
they probably are gonna They're probably going to give up

1191
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:58,000
quite a few points, but like that will allow Saint

1192
00:57:58,039 --> 00:57:59,920
Mary's to do what they want to do, which typically

1193
00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:03,159
lends itself to the game staying under because it's like,

1194
00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:05,760
you know, they're just gonna slow it down, They're gonna

1195
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:08,599
be efficient. I'm sure, Chattanoog will struggle to score. It's

1196
00:58:08,679 --> 00:58:11,800
it's Rob. I'm glad you brought that up because it's

1197
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,480
a tough trip. And if you go into that game

1198
00:58:14,559 --> 00:58:17,320
without without your your best big I think you're you're

1199
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:19,559
in a little bit of trouble. So we are up

1200
00:58:19,599 --> 00:58:22,039
against it. I know Brian has another show right at

1201
00:58:22,079 --> 00:58:25,480
eleven o'clock, so I am going to uh read off

1202
00:58:25,519 --> 00:58:27,840
the parlay and we're gonna get it work like a dog.

1203
00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:30,440
