Speaker 1: All right, welcome in. It is Friday. We've made it
to the end of week one of Full Court Press.
I was told, guys by someone that watched a Total
Basis show regularly that we did one time during the
season hit three parlays in a week, So this is
our chance to top it. If you're new here. By
the end of the show, we do a parlay that
we put together, and we've hit three of the four
so far since the inception of the show on Monday.
So we're very excited about that. Very good almost like
don't know if we'll top it the rest of the year,
but we're very excited about that. And we are trying
to go four for five on three teamers this week,
which would would truly be an accomplishment. So stay with
us for the next hour. If you've got a game
you want to talk about, jump in the comments and
let us know. But we're not going to waste any
more time. There's a million games and we've got to
start things off in Chapel Hill. I love it, you know.
I'm fine with the made for TVs off. I'm fine
with these like games being played in Vegas, but like,
this is what I'm talking about give me Kansas North
Carolina at the Dean Dome, a true home game for
North Carolina and the clear Markie game of the night.
So we'll welcome in Rob Veno. Kick us off, Kansas UNC.
How are you seeing this one?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm having a problem with the headset here, guys.
Hopefully you can hear me. Okay, is it bad?
Speaker 1: We can hear you.
Speaker 3: I can hear you.
Speaker 4: Okay, good.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Let's you know the first thing that, of course, they
both have a game under their belt. Let's start with that.
They almost won by identical scores Kansas Beach Green Bay
ninety four to fifty one. U NC beat Central Arkansas
ninety four fifty four. They gave up three more points.
You go through these teams, guys, the first thing I
found was there's a significant age gap in these teams.
Speaker 4: KU top seven in.
Speaker 2: Their rotation the other night featured three freshmen five hundred classroom.
It's not necessarily a veteran ball club here U n C.
On the other hand, their top seven, they have one
freshman out there with five upperclassmen. Now, the two freshmen
that are going to be in this game for each
side are pretty highly touted for KU Darren Peterson actually
scored twenty one in his first game. He's widely projected
to be a lottery pick. Some list him as top
three high school recruit in the country, but he proved
it opening night. Four Ku seven of eleven shooting twenty
one points, went to the free throw line four times,
made all four four UNC Caleb Wilson is their star
five or five star recruit, six foot nine guy played
pretty well opening day as well.
Speaker 4: But when I look at this roster construction.
Speaker 2: Again, Kansas didn't do well in the portal by major
conference team standards, especially by Kansas standards. I think I
saw a ranking of forty three in the portal rankings.
And again, Peterson's great, but the only hit on one
fruit really where five stars are concerned. The backcourt here
looks pretty solid. Adam guy, you're probably really familiar with
Melvin Council. Saint Bonnie Kid walks In plays the most
minutes of anybody on the team in that opener, so
the minutes were pretty well dispersed. Let me just lay
that out first for folks watching.
Speaker 4: Both of these.
Speaker 2: Teams went fairly deep, a lot of double digit minutes,
little experimentation going on Trey white Is here comes over
from Illinois. They returned on Marco Jackson. He's a former
five star. The backcourt to me for Kansas looks like
it can be Okay, I'm not all that concerned, but
it's the front court where you basically have Bedunga, who
played well in twenty three points nine to eleven from
the field first game. But other than that, there's not
a lot of front court talent here at Kansas size
or talent. They did bring in Paul and Bayer, who
quoting Bill self here now got in late in the summer.
Bill Seltz says immediate impact player. Well, immediate impact player
was like the tenth man off the bench for eight
minutes in Monday's game. That's not an immediate impact player.
So I worry a little bit about kids is across
the front for UNC. We've talked all meet guys about cohesion.
These teams losing players. You can see, loses eight to
their top nine scorers. Only set trimbles back, however, and
Revasar for Arizona walks in seven foot centing. You know
Hubert Davis, he had mentioned in an article that I
read his main goal was to get bigger, UNC. I
think we all watched them enough last year. They were
too small and they wanted to get bigger. Basar comes
in right away, fourteen and ten double double in his
opening game. That's gonna help. They go to Alabama to
get a stretch forward Jaron Stevenson double digit minutes each
of the last two years. So they're picking up these
veteran guys. But the most important was probably Kay and Evans.
I think everybody remembers the Colorado Colorado State amazing run
in the NCAA Tournament last year, and Evans was the
leader at point guard of that team, not the top player,
but the leader at point So hopefully that settles some
things down for North Carolina again, I would just preface
it all by saying, how quickly can they Geil, I
don't know how much you guys want to put into
these forty point or you know, huge wins by each
side on Monday Night.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna say this, the game's gonna be played at
a rapid pace. UNC. It was a seventy five possession game. KU.
Speaker 2: The possessions were only down because they scored every time
they add the ball. When when you shoot seventy two
percent from two point range not gonna be a lot
of possessions, so it's.
Speaker 4: Gonna be played at kind of a track pace.
Speaker 2: The total has been bumped six and a half points,
one fifty two and a half all the way to
one fifty nine. I worry about Kansas being led by
so many freshmen in Chapel Hill here. Can they get
it done in that environment? That's gonna be a question
mark for me. So even though North Carolina might not
be fully cohesive yet one and a half points, I'm
gonna lean towards that side to win by a bucket.
And I guess if I had to, You know, Adam,
I think you stated yesterday some of these totals have
gone way, way way like fishing line and just run,
and yet they still get there, including one of our
parlays last night. I want a piece of our parlay
last night, So I would probably try a little bit
of over.
Speaker 4: But I think un c is where i'd lean a
little stronger.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would concur. And you know it's tough. You
peel open the box scores from the respective first games, right, Okay,
Number one Kansas dominates great. I don't put a lot
into that because look, as long as Green Bay is
coached by Doug Gottlieb, that's that's just a program that's
not going to go anywhere. I'm sorry, it just it
just is the Trent Dilfer of college basketball is how
I refer to him. Can't call him that anymore because
Trent Dilfer got eighty six. But you know, you just
look at the numbers. You know, Rob mentioned Kansas going
down the floor scoring almost each and every time. Just
to put some numbers to it, they shoot almost fifty
seven percent from the field, almost thirty seven percent from three.
They hold Green Bay below thirty percent shooting overall. North
Carolina it's a similar story, better than fifty percent overall,
almost thirty five percent from three. They hold Central Arkansas
to again just over thirty percent, put up what one
point two five points per posession North Carolina. Again, take
it with a grain of salt given who the opponent is,
you know, R I think Rob nailed the key to
the handicap. We talk about it in football a lot,
whether it's done at the show I do the Blitz
on Thursdays, or all of us talk about it on
various appearances. You know, whenever you have a true freshman
making his first road start. That's typically a spot where
people look to fade in football, and here, what do
we have a young team going on the road early
in the year. I agree that I would play North
Carolina as a small favorite here for what it's worth,
North Carolina the last five teams and this goes back
like a long time. But you know, I don't know
if there's gonna be any motivation for you know, humor.
A couple of these losses came under Hubert Davis. But
North Carolina it's been a long time since they've beaten Kansas.
I mean they've you know, they've lost them five straight times.
That goes back to the game that got Billy Packer
fired from CBS where he exclaimed this game is over
in the first three minutes at CBS got really mad
at him. I'm sure there's somebody in the comments section
that has to remember that. But yeah, I'm I'm on
the tar heels here as a short favorite Kansas. There's
no shame in a loss for Kansas. I don't think
it will necessarily tell us much about Kansas big picture.
If they lose this game. I would, you know, I
would expect them to lose going, you know, across country.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not a ton to add to that. For me.
It's like, so I'll point out a couple of things.
The first thing I just want to point out the
board lighting up on this game. There's a couple of
books that continue to go to three and a half,
and then it's like instantly Kansas's bet, which makes which
makes sense at that number. So you've got a couple
of the more popular books continue to push this to
three and a half. Every time it gets to three
and a half, some some sharp probably sharp group is
hitting Kansas. Go ahead.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just want to clarify. When Rob and I
were talking, it literally was one and a half too
North Carolina. Yeah, those gone now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And even though that's that's the thing, like some
of these other so if you get to see you too,
I think they're gone at most of like the the legals,
like the super popular shops, like the DraftKings, the Van Duels,
the MGMs, the Caesars. But like some of these other
like lesser known books are just still sitting at one
and a half, and Kansas keeps getting hit at like
three and a half and three. I think that's probably
makes some sense. Like I think you're gonna see, uh,
you know, respected money on both sides of this game.
For me, I made the number pick. But I'm with
you guys the respect that I really don't really want
to go. I don't want to back Kansas on the
road at the Dean Dome a white out. I heard
it's gonna be, you know, live crowd. I don't trust
this Kansas team enough to do that, and they're not
deep enough either. So it's like, you know, they have
Baduga and Peterson, who both had really good games in
the opener, Rob, You're one hundred percent right. I'm a
big Melvin Council guy. He was also at Wagner. He
took Wagner to the NCAA Tournament two years ago before
his year at Saint Bonaventure. I've always been a big
fan of him.
Speaker 3: He is a.
Speaker 1: Yes, six guys, there were six guys on that team,
and now we know their coach didn't let him drink
any water. We know that as well. But the point
is with Counsel, he's a really good He's always was
a really good just creator, shot maker, do it all
your self type guy at Wagner and he did a
lot of that for the Bonnies. A lot tougher to
do that when you step up and play teams like
North Carolina or do it for a team like Kansas,
and you get outside those three, and I have concerns
about their depth. So that's where I'm gonna leave it.
There's more to talk about tonight. I'll sort of defer
to you guys on that one. I just don't have
a super strong opinion.
Speaker 3: I want to I just want to double check something
really quick. I don't foolish. Draft Kings right now still
has North Carolina minus one twenty two on the money line, which.
Speaker 1: Is yeah, I mean that's what which is.
Speaker 3: Notably different because everywhere else North Carolina you're gonna fight,
it's minus one. I'm looking unless if you guys see
something different, minus one thirty, minus one forty. So we're
talking about how there is you know, people are hitting
Kansas when it gets up.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe it's a case of overthinking it, but you know,
minus one twenty two on the money line, that's not
a bad deal. I would play that, to be honest
with you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably I feel like this probably ends up
closing in the two and a half three range for
North Carolina. So if you can get a UNC money
line minus one twenty to minus one twenty five and
you like that side, I think that that's probably a
reasonable play. Duffel, No, this is much harder than Total Basis,
much much harder. By like week three, By like week
three of Major League Baseball, I can talk about those
teams blindfolded, eyes closed, don't really need to look at anything.
I can probably do the show in my sleep. This
is so much more challenging. You know, I've got we
have like and we love that. I mean, but like
you know, they're look at all the games on the
board today. To come in and make sure I have
something to say with the three of us, like putting
our efforts together to make sure we have something to
play to say about any game that you possibly ask
about is a challenge. So no, this is much tougher
than the Total Basis show to do. But I love
college basketball. We love doing it, and so get those
comments in the chat. I want to go to a
game my guy Keith Bayou, Betts Landry and quite a
few other ones. Oh. Duffel also says, can we get
BP to drink some fireball during the show. Listen, we're
all on East Coast time. It is ten am Tokyo.
Brandon cracks that fireball at eleven pm Tokyo time. So
I don't think we're going to be doing any fireball shot.
Brian and I might do a little We might post
ourselves doing a little drink at the Toledo game. What
are those called that we're going to have a rocket
launch rocket lunch?
Speaker 3: What was it? I looked it up? Yeah, the only Yeah,
they had some branded seltzer. Yeah, as all these please did.
Speaker 1: Again I see in rocket launchers. That's what we're going
to have.
Speaker 3: Yes, and they had their own Seltzer Yes, in the building.
I'll probably try that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll probably try that as well. Looking forward to
that key by you, bets Landry says Georgetown outright, my man,
good little rivalry game there. Yeah, it is nice to
have this game, you know, be a little bit more
meaningful than it's been in and I feel like past
years because Georgetown is starting to resemble that of a
respectable basketball team. Of course, Maryland is very much backed.
But I'll go to Rob here real quick and we'll
talk about this game. You know, Maryland's interesting because for me,
I look at this team and I love Buzz Williams.
I've always been a Buzz Williams guy, so any team
that he coaches I'm always going to gravitate towards. But
we have such a new roster. We have a couple
of that didn't play in the opener, So you know,
the two that I wrote down was Solomon Washington and
Miles Rice. I think I saw Riisel probably play. But
the point is there's a lot of moving parts right
now for Maryland. Does that number seem big to either
of you? I'll let Rob start.
Speaker 2: I think the opener did Adam, But they've gotten to
the Georgetown side right eight and a half, shoot all
the way down to five and a half. Now, you know,
in a simplistic form, I would say the same thing
as you about Buzz Williams coming in trying to re
establish Maryland. But on the other hand, Ed Cooley's second
year there at Georgetown, I think things are much better
in place for him. They gave up seventy in that
first game, which you never know how serious it is
being taken when you're supposed to win, but they scored
eighty seven. My first inclination here, Adam, honestly, was to
try and play this game under But then I saw
George Time, you know, whip out eighty seven points, and
I'm like, well, maybe I'm on the wrong.
Speaker 4: End of my analysis here.
Speaker 2: But as common as it is from what we've said
about a bunch of games through four days this week,
you would think that the Maryland issue would be trying
to get everybody, you know. Buzz Williams has a style
that's kind of unique to tell you the truth, and
you just don't walk into a program.
Speaker 4: He didn't just walk into A and M and they
were A and M right off the bat.
Speaker 2: It took him a while to get it to be
played his way, his guys, his everything, And I think
at Cooley's got an edge there. And I'd also say
this to me, Georgetown's going to be the hunger your
team in this game. Georgetown's trying to re establish and
some sort of national attention, even East Coast attention, but
to spread nationally. They want to be known again where
Maryland is. Just In said these words too a couple
of times this week. Experimentation, evaluation process, I think, but
Buzz Williams is still evaluation he'll use and Cooley's defenses
can be very funky for teams to go up against.
I would lean Georgetown here, but I just don't like
the fact that it's already down to five and a
half guys have gotten at the opener. I think got
the right price, and you know, closing line value sometimes
ends up in the garbage camp.
Speaker 4: But I think it's good here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would concur with what seems to be the
general sentiment, not just rob but our chat that Georgetown's
the right side here. But I am a little concerned
we've already missed the best of the number. Maryland an
unproven entity. I understand why people would want to bet
against them here. Interesting though, because I mean we've talked about,
you know, we were talking about in the world of totals,
how these totals have moved and it hasn't matter what
number you've bet, whether you've bet it at six in
the morning or six in the evening, you're a winner
in some of these regards. I will say one thing
about the Georgetown side that something else that makes it appealing.
They won the opener despite shooting four of twenty six
from three. Now they might they might just be a
bad three point shooting team. You have to be careful.
But that's something I always look at. I mentioned it
on Yesterdays Show, that three point variance is a big
deal to me. I generally like to back teams after
a bad shooting night from three and like to fade
them after a hot shooting night from three. Is it
that a one hundred percent deal? No, of course not.
Nothing's one hundred percent. But if Georgetown's able to put
some points on the board despite making only four of
twenty six from three, you gotta think they're gonna shoot
better from downtown here and that it would be dog
or pass again, though maybe played a little smaller at
the current number. See if it gets back back up,
who knows. We just talked about North Carolina Kansas right
drag that Hey, North Carolina is getting met up than
Kansas gets hit and it comes down. So I would say,
monitor the line. You might be able. This might come
back up a little bit and then fire to six
would be nice. It would be nice to get a
sit you know that two possessions or even six and
a half.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the only other thing I was going to
add was that Georgetown missed a lot of shots against
a Morgan State team that is probably one of the
worst ten teams in the country this year, So that's
a little bit concerning. But you know, how organized will
Maryland be. Obviously those Texas A and M teams under
buzz were great rebounding teams, but that requires organization and
maybe a little bit of time. So probably one I
just sort of casually watch. I don't know if I'll
have a play there, but I think you guys make
great points. All right, Garth, thank you very much. We
very much appreciate the donation to the show. We also
appreciate likes, subscribes, and you guys are simply tuning in.
It's going to help us grow this show. That's our
goal to you know, just to get as many eyes
on this as possible and try to help you find winners.
But we will absolutely talk about your game here. And
this is actually a game that I don't think I'm
going to have a play here, but this will be
one that, like I mean, these are two teams that
I always kind of follow. I got to go out
to Grand Canyon last year and get to a game.
I can tell you that that's going to be a
tremendous atmosphere tonight. And you know, for me, like this one,
I came right out on the number. Spare with me
for a second. I have I have notes all over
the place, and I still handwrite, handwrite my notes out.
I'm an old school like that. I can't type up notes.
So I mean, I've just got chicken scratch all over.
Speaker 3: The basics struggle. My hand gets tired when I sign
a check.
Speaker 1: See now that's the thing. I haven't wrote a check
in a minute. You know, I don't think I've written
I actually signed a check in quite some time. But
I do write my notes out every day. And for
this one, for me, I mean like it just came
out right on the number. I had Grant Canyon minus fifteen.
It's fourteen and a half. Listen, Youngstown State. I know
Brian's will probably have a close eye on Youngstown State
this year. That's a Horizon League team. I know he
watches that league close.
Speaker 3: We've been there.
Speaker 1: I like what we have been there. That was That
was That's a story for another time. That is a
story for another time. That was probably one of the
oddest experiences I've had at any at any place yet.
But yes, a good time right there. I like this
Penguins team though, like they've got a lot, like they
might win the Horizon this year. This is a league
that's a little bit down from what it's been. And
you know, Jared Calhoun obviously leaves there. They were always
going to have to like sort of reorganize. He was
there for like seven years, and of course that last
Youngstown team that he had was probably the best one
that they've maybe ever had there, or at least in
recent memory. But I think Youngstown is going to be good.
You know Pitt. The game they played in the opener
against Pitt, they ended up not covering that game. They
were also a fourteen and a half point underdog at
pit and that was Pitt just pulling away right at
the end of that game. I think that was a
more competitive game than the final score. It was a
six point game at half. I think Youngstown might maybe
even let a little bit in the first half. So
for me, what's tough here? Gcu Arena is going to
be popping. I mean, the Havocs they call them, Brian
are the fans there, They're awesome. It's a cross country
Trip for Grand Canyon, So I lean toward GCU winning
this game by margin. Garth your question of Grand Canyon
minus thirteen and a half, I think that's getting to
the territory. If you can get a thirteen or thirteen
and a half, I think it's starting to get playable
right there. I make the number fifteen. There wasn't enough
value for me to bet it that I want, you know,
with all the other games on the board, but I
slightly lean your way, so I'll say Grand Canyon is
the side I'd be on there at thirteen and a
half if you can get that number.
Speaker 3: I don't have a ton on this one. I thought
it was right on the number as well, like my
number is pretty much there, and I didn't see a
ton of value or anything that really actually stuck up
that made me want to bet this game. I don't
know if Rob has something for the people, but this
was no.
Speaker 1: We'll move on to a different one. I want to Uh,
it's a swizz Swiss says Adam's too young to know
about a checkbook. I'm going to be forty in July.
A lot of people think I'm younger than that than
the baby face, but I'll be forty in July. So
I do remember the checkbook, I just don't. I don't.
I don't remember the last time I actually wrote a check,
like someone was like, hey, bring a check, you know.
So Laurie says, Toledo, Ohio. Here whether it's terrible, yeah,
I don't know. Brian's already out in Ohio. Are you
getting bad weather today or something? I mean, I just
assume that the drive on I ninety when you get
to like eerie Pennsylvania is gonna be miserable regardless. You know.
Speaker 3: The uh, the sky was getting a little dark here
before I have but I've got I have the window
blacked out so I can't even look out there right
now in here, So after I'm done, i'll double check.
But it didn't look like it's gonna be a great day.
Speaker 1: Colin, I'll throw Colin says anything on YOUTC and Antonio
SIU Edwardsville. So I know the reason he's asking is
because this is is a day game, and we have
two daytime tips. I have an opinion on the other one.
So I'll just throw this out and you can feel
free to just say no, I've got nothing, because I
know that these are very niche games. But I will
throw out Columbia New Haven and Siue, Texas San and
Antonio to either of you. It's totally fine to pass
because I've got an opinion on the Columbia game. But
if you want to throw anything out for the people
looking for some degenerate day action, now is your chance
to do it.
Speaker 3: I'll can see the Florida rob Yeah.
Speaker 4: You're silence. I will say this, Adam SIU Edwardsville.
Speaker 2: While I don't have anything impertinent to say, I don't
lead people in the wrong direction of these games. But
SYU Edwardsville is a team because Belmont played a lot
of Ohio Valley basketball that I will during the year.
Speaker 4: Likely have a lot to say about.
Speaker 2: But in this particular game, I'm just staring at it now,
the number because I had it scratched off up to
fifty two, fifty three and a half and somewhere in there. Really,
I can't steer anybody in a right in a in
a positive direction there, so I'm gonna hold off on that.
But like I said, SIU Edwardsville is a team that
you give us about a month and I'll have a
little to say on them. UTSA is not a bad
squad either, but I'll pass on that one.
Speaker 1: So Colin, I will trade you the SIU Edwardsville game,
which I don't have much of an opinion on. My
number was very close for something I did play. That's
also an afternoon game. So I laid and now it's
looking like I got a pretty good number. But I
laid five and a half with Columbia. It's a one
pm game. They are at New Haven. That's a three
percent play for me. I'm not gonna put it in
the parlay because of a little thing we like to
call shelf life. It's a one o'clock game, and by
the time some people see the show, we might be
done with that game. So but I did play it
at five and a half, which is where it was
about it hour ago. So just to give you an
idea of the betting, So sort of how it went.
We had Columbia opened six and a half, got up
to seven seven like overnight to seven. Got someone probably
took new Haven. I don't know if it was a
fake or a setup, but knocked it all the way
down to five and a half and now it looks
like we're back at six and a half or seven
most places. So I want to talk about this game
because this is a very interesting sort of look ahead
spot for a team that just came to Division one.
So New Haven now someone's going to need to explore.
I actually know why and how this happened. I didn't
until the other day I read about it. New Haven
has a home game at one o'clock tomorrow against Penn State.
That's right, the Penn State. The Nitney Lions from State
College are going to New Haven to play a road
game at one pm tomorrow. Now that to me, I
mean that would be the equivalent of them coming here
to play Lamoit like in a you know, glorified high
school gym. I read about this and basically Mike Rhodes,
Penn State head coach, is giving them the game so
they don't have to pay them, I believe, to come back.
It's like it's almost like a way that he's saving
a little bit of coin for the athletic department. They're
going to play a game on the road, and then
I think New Haven will give them the game the
next couple of years, but they won't have to cut
like the big By game check for it. So I
don't know if this is like how we pay players now,
like you know, go on the road and play a
road game against a mid major so you don't have
to pay them the next year. But anyway, that is
the basis of why that game's occurring. Interesting to me
that they've also scheduled a game today also at a
one o'clock start, where they will play Columbia Brian Power.
Does that sound like a little bit of a look
ahead spot to you? I mean it does, right, like
Adak against a Big ten team. Last year you were
in Division two, life comes at you fast, like now
now you're gonna be hosting a Big ten team. They
also played Yukon on Monday, so like I'm just this
is we got to get, you know, Happy birthday to Marco.
It was Marco d'angelo's birthday the other day. This sounds
like a sandwich spot that he likes to talk about
right here where they just played their first ever Division
one game on Monday against Yukon. It was on the road.
I'm sure they got beat up a little bit, right,
Like it's a it's a physical game. You got Penn
State coming to town tomorrow, which is obviously going to
be the game that you're more jazzed up for Big
ten team coming to play in you're a little gym,
but you still have to play a pretty a Columbia
team that, in my opinion, is a lot better than
you are. Right, Like, Columbia didn't work out for them
last year. Their best player was hurt for a lot
of the season. I think they're likely to improve this year.
And like for me, when that got to five and
a half, I could you know my numbers nine and
a half on this game? So I actually still think
at six and a half it's a good play. That's
three percent play for me. I've got I've got a
few plays today, so I don't mind giving one on
the show. But Colin, if you want some daytime action,
I played Columbia minus five and a half and I
still like it where it is right now. Keith Landry
says Columbia was a machine in non conference play last year.
They sure were right up until they played the University
of Albany, I believe and lost in their season went
off the rails. But they had a great non conference
last year as well. I want to get Rob back
in the conversation here. Let's talk about This is an
interesting game and a very interesting line move here the
NC State wolf Pack is this. Have they already won
this game? Rob? Have they already won by twenty? Is
what I want to know, because people are betting this
like this game is over and I'm having a hard
time disting agreeing with them. But I mean, at this point,
it's getting out of hand. What do you think, u AB,
NC State?
Speaker 2: Well, I think we need to talk about it because
it's my dear friend will Wade. The wire taps, the
tantrums at LSU, etc.
Speaker 1: Etc.
Speaker 2: But one thing we know about Will Wade. I mean, listen,
he took his punishment. He went to McNeese and turn
McNeese into a tournament team, and now he's at NC
State and talk about guys that just have a knack
for getting talent.
Speaker 4: Into a program.
Speaker 2: I mean Darien Williams and Trey Holloman Michigan State's point
guard last year. Holliman Williams from Texas Tech. The team
is stacked off of these transfers that he brought in here.
They score one hundred and fourteen points in their first
game against NC Central Play UAB, who lost all five
of their starters Andy Kennedy's team. He also did a
good job filling spots. He just didn't do it as
as deeply with high quality recruits or higher echelon recruits.
He went to the JUCO some mid majors, but he
got a good squad here, and they score one hundred
and six against Mississippi Valley State, who we talked about
a couple of days ago.
Speaker 4: Whether they throw games or not.
Speaker 2: They're just a miserable basketball team from kind of six
to fifty five doesn't really matter. But my point about
talking about this game here, Adam, was it necessarily to
go ahead and lay twenty and a half with North
Carolina State, but rather to just focus in on their
team total. This is a game that's going to be
played at blistering pace. Andy Kennedy knows no other way.
Will Wade likes to play defense, but they score a
lot off of their defense, and I think the new
backcourt of UAB could be in for a little bit
of problem here where pressure defense is concerned handling against
the pressure defense. I saw this number of guys and
I'm going to try and look at it right now
as I speak. I thought their team total was ninety
one and a half, and to me, in a game
like this, ninety one and a half seems a little
it's hard to say a little low. It sounds kind
of weird to say that, but to me it does.
I can see NC State potentially hitting the one hundred
mark in this game against UAB, where you know UB's
only form of retaliation is to run back at you,
and I just don't know that he's got the quality
ball handlers and Indy Kennedy. It's great to beat Mississippi
Valley and get to one hundred and six, but I
don't think you're getting very against NC State, and it's
just such a major step up in class for them
as an offensive team or as a.
Speaker 4: Ball handling team.
Speaker 2: I think in c State, if I had one look
in this game, it would be towards this team total
over which, as I see right now, is well, yeah,
ninety one and a half, right, is that what you.
Speaker 4: Guys are showing. I think they get to ninety two
or better.
Speaker 2: So the purpose for bringing that game up a was
Will Wade and his recruits, which he recruited at maybe
a better level than anybody in the offseason, and be
the pace this game is going to be played at
NC State should get over that total.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that. I wouldn't be surprised if
NC State just drops one hundred and wins by thirty.
My buddy Korby went to UAB and we're talking about
it the other day, like, I don't think he's like
overly high on them this year, which you know, he's
a pretty keen basketball mind, especially from a betting perspective,
So if that's how his take on his team, I
kind of got to lean that way as well. And
also I went Bryan, I mean, you know, Missouri Valley State, Hey,
we reviewed the tape. Well, you guys are fine. You's
just awful.
Speaker 3: Like you know, that's the only thing they're guilty of
is being a terrible, terrible basketball team. I mean right,
I mean it's the thing you gonna There's only one
place to find them every year, and that's at the
bottom of the Ken Palm rankings every year.
Speaker 1: So that's I left out.
Speaker 2: I left out maybe the most important thing I should
have led with after you went through your Columbia analysis.
Speaker 4: I'm actually probably.
Speaker 2: The I would say, maybe the only person you'll ever
meet that actually attended the University of new Haven and
new Haven charging in west Haven, Connecticut back in nineteen
seventy nine my freshman year. So yeah, known for their
baseball in a Hall of fame head coaching Porky vi
Era is what his nickname was, and he cut me.
I had two swings up at the place that I hit.
The second one was a grand ball was on the cutlet.
So that was the end of that.
Speaker 4: But yeah, new Haven University of Haven near and dear to.
Speaker 1: My heart, awesome. That's a new member to the NEEC,
which is has basically become the conference you go to
when you want to come to Division one from Division two.
It's like the feeder Conference. It's like the Transition League
now the Northeast Conference. Pretty much most of those teams
just came to D one a couple of years ago,
and New Haven is the newest installation in that you know,
in that league. So it'll be fun to see them
and see how they compete in there this year. But
I don't think today is a great spot. We're we're
thirty five minutes into the show. We don't have a
parlay leg yet, so I'm gonna put Brian Power on
the spot and see if he's if he knows what
he wants to used for the parlay?
Speaker 4: Yes, do you do?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: I do.
Speaker 3: By the way, breaking is Titan CT apparently also went
to new Haven. I mean did not have I did
not have too new Haven. I love the same That's crazy,
all right, but Trig, you teed me up. Yes, just
to recap if you're new here, if you missed it
being in the show. Yesterday we won our parlay of
the day again, third time in four days. To kick
off here, I say, tip off this season very impressive
here on full Court Press, make sure you smash that
like button. Guys, we appreciate the support and click subscribe
as well. Yesterday my leg was Ohio the Alma mater
o bias there. I thought it was a good spot.
I thought it was a good by Low Cell high spot.
I found Trig and Rob a matchup on today's board
that reminds me a lot of the play yesterday on
ou Let's talk about Troy and Furman. Furman not a
good opening game performance. They get blown out by twenty
six against High Point. Trigg, I think you talked about
that yesterday or the day before that. Maybe the SoCon
is going to be down this year. A lot of
the contenders there certainly, Look, you don't want to lose
your opener by twenty six points. No one does. I
will point out though, Furman wrong end of turnover varianto
that game twenty two to six, So they had problems
holding on to the basketball and they were not forcing
turnovers either. Now they're taking on a Troy team. What
did Troy do in its opener, Well, they went to
Kent State and won outright in overtime. We talked about
obviously still early in the year. Okay, but you know
you're off an overtime game, you win an overtime. I
always kind of think it's a letdown spot next time out,
especially because the Troy team guys that was not good
at shooting the three last year. In fact that Troy
was quite bad at shooting the three last year. We're
talking about bottom twenty five in the country in three
point percentage last season. Well, they went twelve of twenty
six against Kent State. That was the difference that game.
Also backing up a few seconds ago, I talked about
how Furman was on the wrong end of turnover variants
in the opener against High Point. Well, this is a
Troy team that turned it over a lot last year
as well, in addition to not being a good three
point shooting team. You add all this up, let's bilow
on Furman. Let's sell high on Troy. There is a
rogue one and a half out there at fan Duel
Trig I'm seeing. But in the interest of fairness, let's
go two and a half here.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, Brian, you know something we talked
about on total basis, like since because it's a three team,
or if you want to go money line, that works too.
I mean, we are a good point.
Speaker 3: Well, you know what, let's just do that here. Let's
let's do that. Let's go Furman money line for my
leg of the parlay. Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: You know you're not really taking a bad number because
you know, very good point. Brian Leonard would argue that,
He's like, it's still the same odds in the parlor.
But it's like what I The way I look at
it is it's like we're building a three team or
we're gonna have plus money on the parlay anyway, So
if you didn't want, if you don't want to take
a bad number right there, just go firm in on
the money line, and I'll just throw one thing out
on that game, like you know, if someone's gonna adjust
from like I do want to cut Furman a little
bit of slack for like sort of how that game
played out. That was a neutral site game as part
of the Field of sixty eight sort of opening thing.
I think we saw sloppy play in some of those
other games as well, so it's like their guards just
turned it over a ton. It was just a very
sloppy performance where they got down and kind of got
down big, and I feel like they just could never
get back into the game. But like, Richie's as good
as a coach as they're gonna find. And to me,
like Troy, they've got the talent and the and the
they can pressure the ball as well. Like it's it's
gonna be a good matchup. But he he's one coach
where I've I've over the years I sort of trust
him to like tweak some things right the shit. And
I think someone maybe it was Keith, that's our buddy,
Keith Bayou Betts Landry. I'm gonna pull his comment up
here because I have no opinion on that. But if
you need to know something about Southeast Louisiana basketball. Keith
is your guy, so we'll read that off. But I
think he told me Furman's got a new arena that
they're opening tonight. Is that true?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: Is there any true?
Speaker 3: Yes? Yes, that is true. That is true. So yes,
the new arena bump.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, it is kind of a Listen, I'm going
off the top of my head. But like, I'll like
Charlton State tomorrow night because they they open their new
arena at home. I know Fairfield when they open their
new one destroyed whoever they were playing. I think Baylor
when they opened Foster Pavilion won by like forty against Cornell.
So like, listen, new building, you've had a chance to
practice in it. You know the other team may have
been practicing someone like you know there, it's a thing.
I think there's something to that. I'll give Furman a
slight bump for that, all right, And Keith, I have
he says I got one for y'all. I fully expected
him to say y'all as well. But Southeast Louisiana UL
under one thirty seven and a half. I'm literally just
reading his comment because these are teams that I would
be texting him about anyway. He says, lape At hired,
So that's actually Louisiana. I don't think we call them
lafay At anymore, but Louisiana hired a Houston assistant who
will bring that tough defensive style to lapay At. And
Sila does not have a lot of scores. This could
be a rock fight sixty five to sixty one. I
know Rob kind of likes the new coach in a
new play angle. Thank you, Keith. I have zero to
add to that, but I trust your handicap there, and
so if you were looking for that game, that is
your h that's going to be your opinion. A little
guest handicap for mister Bayou Betts. All right, let's go
back to the chat. We still we will. We will
walk into parlay legs over the next twenty minutes. You know,
I'll go to Rob. Do you have any idea what
you want to use yet? Or have you looked? Have
you decided?
Speaker 2: Well? I haven't decided, but I think we should throw
this game out there at him because probably all three
of us will have It's one of the better.
Speaker 4: Games of the night.
Speaker 2: Utah State DCU on a neutral in Frisco, Texas. Phil
Martelli Junior the new head coach at DCU, and man,
did they play Brian's style fast In that first game.
VCU again pressure filled up and down the floor. Utah
State a team that returns a whole batch of starters
off a twenty eight and sixteam, and they can shoot
it a little bit. Utah State's one of those that
lives by the NBA Boston Celtic theory volume threes, analytics,
chuck up the threes, and they've got guys that can
make them. They don't play at the same exact pace
as VCU, but to get over a number like this,
you don't necessarily have to have two fast paced teams
if the one that's a little more methodical is so
efficient offensively, which is what you toss data is one
thing that worried me, guys real quick here, and I
think this will change tonight. You toss State in that
opening box score, you'll find that they only shot nine
free throws. Again, it was a cakewalk type game. But
when you play VCU, it just seems like everybody lives
on the foul line. Like VCU plays fast and files.
You file them because you can't keep up, et cetera,
et cetera. You get a lot of points generated from
the free throw line on top of the points that
you're gonna get off of layups, off of threes, et cetera.
So this game, to me, it's been back up a
little bit one sixty one and a half. And again,
you know, neutral rims sometimes site backlines, et cetera, et cetera.
But to me, that's sort of become a thing of
the past that used to work in a lot of instances,
but nowadays these kids tend to shoot lights out no
matter where they are. I think this game might get
over here, guys, I'm not going to use it as
the parlay leg I sort of lean toward Utah State
as a side, just because they're the more cohesive group.
Phil Martelli's brought transfers into that program and they played
well for him all right off the bat. They'll play quick,
but I think sometimes quick can lead to that one
or two extra mistakes that cost you a game that's
priced in this price range.
Speaker 4: So I do think it.
Speaker 2: Gets over That would be my first look, and then secondly,
I'd probably look towards Utah State, but that should be
a tremendous game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean was you know VCU pressed a lot
in that opening game, so it looks like you're going
to get the fill Martelli Bryant sort of craziness, but
keeping some of the principles of like VCU basketball, heavy pressure,
havoc style play. Yeah, my number was pretty much on
the nose with you. I have Utah State minits one
and a half. I believe it opened to that's probably
right about where it is. So that is a neutral
court in Frisco, Texas. Likely no play for me, but
will that will be a great watch. That's definitely one
to tune into. All right, Cody, can we get a
breakdown in the wake Forest game? So this is one
where it's like I just kind of like default to
Brian on these types of games because I feel like
we've seen these quite a bit where it's like heavy favorite,
they're at home, kind of tough to like, you know,
find a way at these like twenty plus point favorites. Now,
I will point out this is a rare occurrence where
the dog is taking some money. Looks like this one
open twenty one and a half, now down to eighteen
and a half. Some places, but the over has gone
the other way. It's actually gone up. So I've got
nothing there, Brian, anything, You've been good in the team
totals in these type of teams. But I don't know
if that's one that.
Speaker 3: I was gonna say based on the market. I think
you just want to look at more ahead maybe team
total over. I mean, they're gonna have to put points
on the board if they're gonna cover this number, right, guys.
I mean that's just common sense. It is interesting what
you see because normally, I mean a lot of these
games we talked about this week early, you know, it's
been you know, favorite and over have sort of been correlated.
Here it's sort of a different situation. So all I
can tell you is that the market is telling you
that Morehead, you know, might be putting up some points here.
Let me do a little more deep digg in on
this one and and I'll see if I can put
some some facts to that mindset here. But that the yeah,
I mean that that it's pretty clear that that's what
the market is saying on that game. Let me just
take a look here at the box scores and see
if I can come up with anything else for you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and while you're doing that one, I'm gonna I'm
gonna go to Jake's sort of question. He says, Longwood
to cover. I listen, any bet against Pitt Right now,
I'm pretty much fine with I thought that they now
my probably the only issue I have here is that
not nearly as high on Longwood this year as I
was last year or the last couple years. So griff Aldrich,
Longwood head coach, left in the offseason to join his
college roommate I believe college buddy Ryan Odum at Virginia.
So Longwood basically was one of those school programs that
kind of lost their head coach. I don't think they
really expected to, but he said I'd rather be an
assistant at Virginia and do that with my boy Ryan Odum.
And so they've got a new coach, and I'm just
not as nearly as I felt like they were going
somewhat in the wrong direction last year. That was a
team that I feel like underachieved a little bit. So
like when I look at Pitt and they managed to
beat Youngstown State by fifteen, to me, like I'd much
rather have Youngstown State than Longwood. Yeah, I'm only getting
like another point in this game, and I know it
opened seventeen. I would have probably leaned toward Longwood at
the opening number of seventeen, but you're down at fifteen
and a half sixteen. Let's put it this way. I
wouldn't take the favorite there. I think Pitt could be
really bad this year, so it would be dog or pass.
Just wanted to get a thought out on Longwood right there,
just real quick.
Speaker 3: Morehead shot the lights out. And now they played Midway University.
Troubling is that they gave up fifty six percent shooting
in that game as well. If you're giving a fifty
six percent to a non D one opponent, that's bad.
That that that does worry me a little bit about
the defense. Now, the wake Forest game got to one
sixty two despite twenty seven percent three point shooting for
both teams. Them an American, so I definitely can understand
why the overs taking money here. Again, Morehead state, the
thing that would worry me is the defense here, So
you know, again, I guess I would just circle back
to the Morehead team total. Maybe that's what the market's saying.
Speaker 1: Steve Duke. Yeah, Longwood is in Farmville Virginia and it
is a from what I hear, I believe Aaron Kid's
been to a couple of games there. It is a
gorgeous campus and they have a beautiful, like very new arena.
It's it's on my list to get down to. But yeah,
Longwood and Farmville, Virginia and a good chance to promo ourselves.
I'm gonna go. I'll let Brian do the the sales part.
But I'll say this, I'll say, you see how I
put you on the spot there, I like, I'll let you.
You'll let you do the sales part. But for slick
Vic Kansas UNC was what we opened the show with.
And if you've missed the show to this point, we
are on demand and so head on over to the

I know you miss some of you will be disappointed,
but that's just the way it is. Monday through Friday,
Tenday Am Eastern live here on the wage to talk
to YouTube channel. I'll just you know, obviously looking ahead
to the weekend. Guys, you know the weekend for football
football does take place. This is a college basketball show,
but we always do want to plug the weekend. Warrior
Pass forty nine dollars. You can get all three of us.
It's forty nine dollars each. You get our entire Saturday
college football card, entire Sunday NFL football card, and as
a added bonus, you get Monday at Football free of charge.
I'll be loading all of my football plays here this
afternoon when I am done with the best betting show ever,
as I'm guesting there with Joe Ranari after here.
Speaker 1: So I'm like, this is like when we're at you know,
You're at dinner and at your time to order, and
I like, I want to look at the menu for
another minute. So I'm going to Rob and I'm going
to put him on the spot and tell him we
need a parlay leg from him so I can think
for another five minutes.
Speaker 2: So all right.
Speaker 4: I had a couple here in mind, guys.
Speaker 2: The first one we've already talked about, and it was
the NC State game where I just feel like, Will Wade,
we'll pour it on. But I think I'm going to
defer to another team total here.
Speaker 4: You know, we've seen so.
Speaker 2: Many one hundred point outputs from power teams and just
sheer blowouts to start the season. And one that hits
me here is Kentucky Valpo Valpos coming in with eleven
new players into rupp Arena. Mark Pope has the roster
his way this year. Kentucky's very highly rated. Their team
total is excessive tonight. The best you can find is
ninety four and a half. Moreover, you'll find ninety five
and a half. But to me, this game, I mean
Kentucky might put together a sixty point half in this game.
So for me, I think I'm going to pass on
the North Carolina State game, as far as North Carolina
State game, excuse me as far as their team total
and roll with UK over valpo with your guys again,
I'm seeing mostly universal ninety five and a half guys
shop it though, because I do see a couple of
straight ninety four and a half's out there.
Speaker 4: Ninety six to me doesn't.
Speaker 2: Seem like that big of a deal.
Speaker 4: The way we've seen.
Speaker 2: These up tempo teams knock over the hundred mark, I
would say a consistent basis, but on a more more
consistent basis than what I've seen in past years. Have
never seen this many hundreds put up. So give me
Kentucky team total, guys, is our second leg of the
parlay over, and I'll use the universal number ninety five
and a half. Good luck to others who are going
to search for it, because you can find ninety four
and a half.
Speaker 1: Rob, I mean, you know there's something to be said
for like you got a fresh team, you've been practicing
for a couple of months, You're just excited to get
out there. And I do feel like these first games
out you tend to see like the team like Kentucky
drop one hundred. I mean Texas Tech did it for
the other night without like they're two beast players. It
was just like, you know, Florida State kept their starters
in a little longer to really run it up and
get over one hundred. So yeah, I still think we're
in the time of the season where it's like you're
probably going to see those triple digits. It's you know,
a couple of weeks from now, you might see them
pump the brakes, you might see them get reserves in
in these situations. But I just think it's too early
in the year and they just want to go show
out for the fans a lot of times.
Speaker 2: So yeah, And you know, I saw an interview the
other night Adam post game, and I forget which team
it was, so it was a team that scored over
one hundred, and the quote from the player was, we're
just sick and tired of play each other in practice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, good point.
Speaker 2: We just want to get out there and beat the
heck out of somebody else. And unfortunately for Valpo, they're
going to march in you know what's projected to be
the worst roster in the Missouri Valley this year. So
I think Kentucky may take out and they play with
enough pace and enough defense of pressure to probably get
them to ninety six years.
Speaker 4: So that'll be my end of it today.
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna I'm just gonna do it, ladies
and gentlemen. I'm gonna throw the Sianna Saints into the parlay.
I've got my shirt, I'm ready for game day. They
are at Brown tonight, and so I do I think
I've I have three client plays already locked in. I
did give you one on the show earlier, and to
be perfectly honest, like I probably would have put Columbia
in the parlay if it wasn't a one o'clock game,
But also that number moved a little bit, and I
think you know Steve Duke in the chats kind of
saying like you know, you might be able to get
a better number in play, like yeah, like I don't
really want to put like a bad number in there,
and then also a bad number that like people coming
to the show and watching it at three pm. The
game's over. So I'll use the alma mater. Brian Power
got it done with his alma mater last night with Ohaio.
So I'm gonna go Sienna. We'll use the money line.
It's it's like minus one thirty five is what I'm
seeing a lot of places, and like, here's the deal.
They're at Brown tonight. They opened as a slight underdog,
which I thought was ridiculous, and that was quickly quickly gone.
So my number is right in mind with where the
market is. Right now, I have Cianna minus two, and
that's where the number is. I think if this went
back to Pick, I might add this to my client card.
But the reality is this Cianna is just so much
better than they were last year. I think the market
is I don't think people really know how good this
team is. I think they're so much better than anyone's
giving them credit for. We talked about them on Monday.
I had I had Bryant like a lums and fans
and my mentions on Monday. Haven't heard from them since
because I was a maath not even close. The people
saying Brian gonna win that game wasn't even close. Brown
is worse in my opinion than they were last year,
and still a very well coached team. But remember like
ken O Lily was was really that team, you know,
like he carried them and I think Brown has sort
of you know, from go back to that Brown team
two years ago. Yet ken o' lily, you had awsu
Anana who ended up. I think it like Grand Canyon,
the kid that's at Saint Louis now, some really good
talent has left that team in the last couple of years,
and I think they're actually probably you're probably gonna see
them finish closer to the bottom of the IVY. One
thing that like again is not being accounted for. Tasmin Goodrick,
Sianna's new big He's tremendous. He looked awesome against Bryant.
They've got the guards. I truly believe Sianna is just
gonna be a money maker until the market catches up.
And I don't think they've caught up. Yeah, even they're
catching up in real time. Moving this from like Sianna
plus two to minus two. But again, like you know
that game last year Sianna won on their home floor.
They came back and won that game, And I just
think last year's Brown team was better than this year's.
This year Sianna team is much better than last year.
So we'll go Siana moneyline and see if the boys
can get it done tonight. We have five minutes left.
I'll throw this so so Jace, I'll give this to you, guys.
I don't know if anyone will have an opinion here,
but I know this isn't Rob's sort of region, so
he's just asking a general question thoughts on Delaware this year,
And it's an interesting question because they moved to a
new conference. They play a D two school I think today,
But like Rob, I have them at the bottom of
their new league. I'm not expecting much from them. I
didn't know if you had a take since you're in
that region.
Speaker 2: Yeah, real quick on Delaware. It's definitely going to be
a down year according to most local.
Speaker 1: You know media here.
Speaker 2: But you know, again, with these teams like Delaware, first
of all, I think the jump we saw it in football.
They's somewhat competitive and they're not good enough to win games.
Yet it could be the same deal with Delaware here.
I'm interested to see what price range they're going to
be held in by odds makers at them, because that
will make all the difference in the world. What we
do is around numbers more than specifically talented. So as
a very very vague outlook on Delaware, it's a lower
echelon conference team. It's a team that can, in underdog
roles be bet on. This year, We'll see how it
goes first couple of games out, but beyond that, it's
hard to tell with them right now. They've been better
in the past, and they've been higher scoring in the past.
I think that's the biggest key here is they probably
won't be as high scoring, real fast. I want to
throw the tidbit out to you guys. Worst road trip
of the night here, I got to give it to
Chattanooga who goes to Moraga, California to go marries in
that gym against Randy Bennett's team with zero starters back.
Speaker 4: And it's interesting.
Speaker 2: In a couple of preseason publications, you'll find Chattanooga listed
as the top team in the Southern without any without
any starters coming back, but their style doesn't fit what
Saint Mary's is.
Speaker 5: Going to do to them, and going to that place
and looking at that gym, they're going to be like
where now that they played these huge arenas in the
sub But you know, Maraga is a different place, Rob.
Speaker 1: I have I had a little tidbit written down about
that game. Colin Mholland did not play in their opener,
and I don't know why or what he was held
out for, but if he is not on the floor
tonight for Chattanooga, they are in big trouble and in
total under. Yeah. Like, the one thing I'll say about
Saint Mary's though, is like if you cannot get them
out of what they want to do, you're one hundred
percent losing by double digits. It's like, go ask Saint
Thomas how that worked out. So yeah, game has.
Speaker 2: Pushed at him from twelve and a half to fourteen
and a half in favor of Saint Mary's, which could
indicate the injury still exists.
Speaker 3: For a chat and Am I say, sixty five and
a half is that team total for chat Nooga? I
could see them being held under that number? Yeah, there
we go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean with no with although with Mhaland out,
they probably are gonna They're probably going to give up
quite a few points, but like that will allow Saint
Mary's to do what they want to do, which typically
lends itself to the game staying under because it's like,
you know, they're just gonna slow it down, They're gonna
be efficient. I'm sure, Chattanoog will struggle to score. It's
it's Rob. I'm glad you brought that up because it's
a tough trip. And if you go into that game
without without your your best big I think you're you're
in a little bit of trouble. So we are up
against it. I know Brian has another show right at
eleven o'clock, so I am going to uh read off
the parlay and we're gonna get it work like a dog.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I believe.
Speaker 1: Are you on with Prez at eleven? Are you doing
that show?
Speaker 3: I know my good close personal friend Joe Ranii will
be on. I'm not sure who else gotcha?
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yes, so go check out, Go see if
you can find VP on that show, which I think
goes live in like ninety seconds. So I'm gonna I'm
gonna get out of here. We'll sign off. We'll see
if we can make it four three teamers out of five,
five days in the week, which is insane, but we're
gonna go for it. We have Brian Power on Furman
money Line, I'm gonna be on Siana money Line, and
then we've got a team total over for Robin the
Kentucky game. That's Kentucky team total over ninety five and
a half. It's plus four seventy odds so Cianna money
Line Firm and money Line Kentucky team total over ninety
five and a half. We have concluded the first week
of Full Court Press. We appreciate you guys tuning in.
Tell a friend, tell a friend, Hey, come join us
to a well, come watch the show. We want to
run it up on the numbers, and you know, continue
to promote the show as always. You can find our
