1
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: All right, guys, welcome in. It is Wednesday. It is

2
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:11,400
time for another edition of Full Court Press, another huge

3
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,439
slate on a Wednesday night, a bunch of games to

4
00:00:13,519 --> 00:00:16,839
talk about. We'll get into it in a second. First, Rob,

5
00:00:16,839 --> 00:00:19,160
you know, how how did your Tuesday go? How'd your

6
00:00:19,199 --> 00:00:21,719
five dollars Tuesday go? For the clients?

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,399
Speaker 2: Yeah? The five dollars Tuesday? The play itself wasn't very good.

8
00:00:28,079 --> 00:00:32,079
San Diego State minus twelve against Wyoming one by nine,

9
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:33,439
and you.

10
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 3: Learned by eleven and a half, right, yeah, yeah.

11
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,399
Speaker 2: Get beaten the second You're not supposed to. But you know,

12
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,520
as long as I've been doing this aadam, sometimes you

13
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,719
find that you ignore some things that you shouldn't ignore.

14
00:00:47,799 --> 00:00:50,399
And while I was gung ho, i'm the San Diego

15
00:00:50,439 --> 00:00:53,119
State side of things in that game, I pretty much

16
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:58,920
disregarded the Wyoming side, which would have been is situationally,

17
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,479
that team needed to play a really good game. They're

18
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,319
free falling in the Mountain West, and it's a better

19
00:01:04,359 --> 00:01:07,079
team than what they had shown, So I didn't necessarily

20
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,840
give Wyoming the proper respect lose by three. Otherwise, we

21
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,400
had a two and two day in college basketball beside that,

22
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,599
which was pretty good. The Murray State game eighty one

23
00:01:19,599 --> 00:01:23,840
and a half Land eighty one team total unbelievable. Another

24
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,599
one of those half points where we got caught. But

25
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,480
I think that the Murray State handicap was right. They

26
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,159
did come out and cover the spread. For those of

27
00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:35,920
you who played them, ats you win with Murray. Trying

28
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,159
to think of what else was you know, it's so

29
00:01:38,239 --> 00:01:40,879
hard to remember today, never mind yesterday. But it was

30
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,400
two and two. NBA brought me to a plus though,

31
00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:45,239
because I had a big inter play that won. So

32
00:01:45,359 --> 00:01:49,879
the full day wound up as the fourth consecutive, sixth

33
00:01:49,879 --> 00:01:51,480
consecutive winning day in a row.

34
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 1: Robert Service in the chats is great call on usc Adam.

35
00:01:56,319 --> 00:01:58,120
He went to the game, so he got a nice

36
00:01:58,239 --> 00:02:00,400
in in game winner right there with That was it

37
00:02:00,439 --> 00:02:02,239
for me. Yesterday I went I went one and two,

38
00:02:02,879 --> 00:02:06,040
feeling a little bit unfortunate to go one and two.

39
00:02:06,359 --> 00:02:08,199
Speaker 3: I had to Paul plus ten and a half.

40
00:02:08,319 --> 00:02:11,800
Speaker 1: If you watch that game, I don't think Saint John's

41
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,080
really deserved to be a twelve point winner. There was

42
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,840
a it was pretty close throughout of course, DePaul hits

43
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,680
a three to cut it to ten with sixteen seconds

44
00:02:21,039 --> 00:02:24,840
left Rob, and you know, some folks dribble the clock

45
00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:27,360
out right there. But to Paul decided that was going

46
00:02:27,439 --> 00:02:29,879
to be the case. They filed ended up losing by

47
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,960
twelve the other one. Listen, I mean I had Boise

48
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,240
State gave it out on the show. They were up

49
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,879
by twenty in the first half, thirty to ten, they

50
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:42,520
were up by fourteen in the second half. They came

51
00:02:42,599 --> 00:02:44,319
all the way Nevada came all the way back to

52
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,120
Forrest overtime, and so here I am Rob rarely with

53
00:02:47,159 --> 00:02:48,000
a favorite in ot.

54
00:02:48,159 --> 00:02:50,639
Speaker 3: That rarely happens for me, and I you know, I

55
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:53,560
have a good memory.

56
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: I remember sitting there earlier this year with Boston College

57
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,280
plus seven and a half, losing that when in overtime

58
00:02:59,319 --> 00:03:02,479
to LSU said, I said, this is the the gambling

59
00:03:02,479 --> 00:03:04,759
gods are going to repay me right here. It's you know,

60
00:03:04,879 --> 00:03:07,560
it's a good time for it. Of course they did not.

61
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,360
Boise State ends up winning by four. I had minus

62
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,039
five and a half, so one and two day.

63
00:03:12,319 --> 00:03:14,759
Speaker 3: But we'll live. It's, you know, it's been going good,

64
00:03:14,759 --> 00:03:15,639
so we can live with that.

65
00:03:15,879 --> 00:03:18,039
Speaker 1: I did like that San Diego State play, though, that

66
00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:22,280
was one I strongly considered and Rob another one thankfully

67
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,080
did not come back with USC. I might be at

68
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,240
the GW Bridge right now if I did that. So

69
00:03:27,599 --> 00:03:29,960
I don't know if you saw the end of that game, but.

70
00:03:31,039 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 2: I was watching UCLA at the end of surprised they

71
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,719
got such a high point total. And the reason I

72
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:40,360
was interested there Adam real quick because we're delay in

73
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,960
the start of what's going to happen today. But the

74
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,039
only reason I was interested in UCLA Indiana was because

75
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:50,280
the other day I had USC team total against Indiana again,

76
00:03:50,319 --> 00:03:52,680
a game that fell at half point short. USC lipiates

77
00:03:52,719 --> 00:03:55,840
doorstep Ucla not the case. Still less night Mick Cronin

78
00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,199
had gone nuts again on his team the prior contest,

79
00:04:00,759 --> 00:04:04,479
and I don't know they responded, so maybe mixed rants

80
00:04:04,639 --> 00:04:06,400
just don't get old at him. You would think it's

81
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,039
something to get old, but you CLA played a great

82
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,159
game again without sky Clark when they get him back.

83
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:21,680
I know the Big Ten focuses on Michigan, especially in Illinois,

84
00:04:21,759 --> 00:04:25,279
especially rightfully so, but I don't know. There's something about

85
00:04:25,319 --> 00:04:27,920
UCLA when they get sky Clark back that looks pretty good.

86
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:29,079
Speaker 3: Rob.

87
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,519
Speaker 1: Here's the thing we do what the chat asks for

88
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,879
on the show, and I've been asked in the comments,

89
00:04:33,959 --> 00:04:36,800
I've been asking here, you got to recap the night before.

90
00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:39,839
You know you can't. You know, we want you to

91
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,879
come on and say if you went one in two

92
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,879
or two in one. So that's what we're gonna do.

93
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,680
That's what we do on the show. We do what

94
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,199
you guys ask for. So that was the Tuesday recap.

95
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:49,600
It's time to get to Wednesday.

96
00:04:49,879 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 3: Rob.

97
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,199
Speaker 1: I was having a hard time picking a feature game

98
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,279
tonight because you know, there's a lot of like rank

99
00:04:55,399 --> 00:04:59,040
versus unranked. There's good ones, but they're not like super

100
00:04:59,079 --> 00:05:03,600
marquee games. I landed on UCF Houston. I figured for

101
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:08,639
two reasons. One, you know, nineteen and two against seventeen

102
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,319
and four, Right, Houston's a top ten team, one of

103
00:05:11,319 --> 00:05:13,360
the best teams in the country. But as I was

104
00:05:13,399 --> 00:05:16,680
handicapping these games, I felt like I felt like UCF

105
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,399
deserved their shine for a second. You know, this is

106
00:05:20,399 --> 00:05:24,560
a team Johnny Dawkins deserves from credit, so we'll give him.

107
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,480
We'll give him a little credit right here on full

108
00:05:26,519 --> 00:05:28,279
Court Press. I thought this was gonna be one of

109
00:05:28,319 --> 00:05:31,040
the worst teams in the Big Twelve coming into the season.

110
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,279
When you looked at all the other teams in the

111
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,680
Big twelve. I in my head, I said, well, there's

112
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,319
UCS got to be one of the bottom two, bottom

113
00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:41,240
three teams in this league. Rob This team right now

114
00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,399
is seventeen to four. There's six and three in conference play.

115
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:50,680
They have wins over Kansas over Texas Tech last time

116
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,839
out over the weekend, a shocking result for some. And

117
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,839
then you know, they hung around with number one Arizona

118
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,959
only lost by seven three in conference play. Very very

119
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,240
impressive for UCF relative to what I thought they were

120
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,680
going to be this year. And then there's Houston nineteen

121
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,879
and two. No surprise there, right. I don't think anyone

122
00:06:11,959 --> 00:06:15,319
had had any reason to think that Houston wouldn't be

123
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,839
a top ten team again this year. And there they

124
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,160
are right at the top of the Big ten, behind Arizona,

125
00:06:20,399 --> 00:06:22,839
who is obviously is not lost yet this year at

126
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:27,920
seven and one. Robino, do Central Florida have another one

127
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:28,600
in them here?

128
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:29,839
Speaker 3: Or is this going to be a blowout?

129
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,639
Speaker 2: You know? My initial reaction was they not that they

130
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,000
have one in them in terms of pushing Houston to

131
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,600
the wire over the course of forty minutes, But do

132
00:06:42,639 --> 00:06:45,439
they have one in them covering this type of number,

133
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,160
which we've seen increase this morning up to fifteen. I

134
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:50,920
think was the last dice, So I'm gonna check it

135
00:06:50,959 --> 00:06:52,959
for everybody now. Fifteen and a half is what we're

136
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,120
looking at here. Houston opened fourteen and a half total

137
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,079
one to fifteen and a half, which sounds insane for

138
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,759
a Houston game. Down to one forty seven and a half,

139
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:03,680
one forty eight and a half. So you got a

140
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:10,120
little bit of shopping room there, But it's Houston under

141
00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:15,959
Kelvin Sampson is a very very predictable team each and

142
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,439
every year. What they're gonna be, what they're gonna look like,

143
00:07:18,519 --> 00:07:22,279
what they're gonna do best, what they're going to maybe

144
00:07:22,319 --> 00:07:24,920
not do best, which is go into scoring droughts, et cetera.

145
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,120
This is the number one offensive efficiency team in the

146
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,279
Big Twelve. It's amazing how much better they are offensively

147
00:07:32,319 --> 00:07:35,920
this year, and they still don't do everything right on

148
00:07:35,959 --> 00:07:39,160
the offensive end. They are a better three point shooting teams,

149
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,000
they're not a great three point shooting team. They don't

150
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,560
turn the ball over. Their guard play is sensational as

151
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,800
far as ball handling is concerned. They they still offensive

152
00:07:49,839 --> 00:07:54,160
rebound like crazy. On the defensive end, they don't defensive rebound.

153
00:07:54,199 --> 00:07:57,759
I feel like with Houston you have to at least

154
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,000
match up halfway decent on the glass if you're going

155
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,720
to have any opportunity whatsoever. And Central Florida does in

156
00:08:05,759 --> 00:08:09,480
my estimation right at seventy two. Kid Bowl in the

157
00:08:09,519 --> 00:08:12,680
pivot there, and Central Florida has been playing pretty good

158
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,639
as far as rebounding numbers are concerned. They're a team

159
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:24,800
that can score Houston generally, if you have a squad

160
00:08:24,879 --> 00:08:29,600
that on the offensive end isn't quite as efficient or

161
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,720
you know, if they're not top half of the conference

162
00:08:31,759 --> 00:08:34,399
efficiency wise, and if they have a tendency to go

163
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,279
with the scoring droughts, Houston will lock you in a

164
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,840
box and you won't score. And we've seen that at

165
00:08:38,879 --> 00:08:41,960
home so far this year. We've seen three wins at

166
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,600
home inside this league of twenty points are better, So

167
00:08:44,639 --> 00:08:48,279
they're more than capable. But I go back to one

168
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:52,200
thing that you said really quick here about UCF hanging

169
00:08:52,279 --> 00:08:56,759
tight with Arizona. Nobody rebounds better than Arizona so far

170
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,600
this year. Nobody does anything in this league better than

171
00:08:59,639 --> 00:09:02,480
Arizon so far this year. And if you can play

172
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,600
to within single digits against them, I have to believe,

173
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,360
you know, Houston's off a monster win. Maybe this win

174
00:09:09,519 --> 00:09:12,320
isn't as big. Houston does have lulls at times. So

175
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,039
while I think they're gonna win the ballgame, I just

176
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,759
my tendency here, My lean would be to play Central

177
00:09:18,799 --> 00:09:21,320
Florida plus the points. You know, if you come in

178
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,919
with a seventeen and fourteen and a veteran head coach

179
00:09:25,039 --> 00:09:29,279
like Johnny Dawkins, you come in here and maybe Houston's

180
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,679
the one with the bullseye on their chest, Like Houston's

181
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,440
a team that's gonna get your best effort, your max effort,

182
00:09:35,159 --> 00:09:37,720
and their max effort against Arizona was good enough, So

183
00:09:37,919 --> 00:09:40,559
why wouldn't it be good enough here against Houston to

184
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:41,919
get within fifteen and a half.

185
00:09:44,759 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, my my number's been off on UCF

186
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,639
all season, So it doesn't surprise me that that I

187
00:09:50,759 --> 00:09:53,440
make Houston a bigger favorite than that in the fifteen

188
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:53,919
and a half.

189
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 3: So like that was not surprising to me.

190
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:59,279
Speaker 1: I knew before I even started doing calculations for the game,

191
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,039
rob that I was gonna to come out showing an

192
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:05,799
edge on Houston against the number. But I won't be

193
00:10:05,879 --> 00:10:09,639
laying it in this spot against Central Florida because of

194
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,200
a lot of what you said. The other thing being

195
00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:14,879
there's a lot of tough shot makers on this team.

196
00:10:14,919 --> 00:10:16,720
So two things that are going to be able to

197
00:10:16,799 --> 00:10:19,919
keep you hanging around against a number like fifteen and

198
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,320
a half. And maybe this is also a case for

199
00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:25,080
the over a little bit as well, because I do

200
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:29,000
think UCF can score some points the ability to hit

201
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,840
the three point shot and then of course the ability

202
00:10:31,879 --> 00:10:34,759
to make tough shots. And Central Florida does both of

203
00:10:34,799 --> 00:10:38,960
those things considerably well. They you know, fortieth nationally in

204
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:43,039
field goal percentage. They have tough shot makers on the team,

205
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,039
they're twenty first nationally shooting a three thirty eight point

206
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,440
two percent, and like you were saying, you know, they're

207
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:54,120
statistically comparable to Houston rebounding the basketball, so there might

208
00:10:54,159 --> 00:10:57,919
actually be maybe some second chance points, maybe a tip out,

209
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,000
you know, maybe a rebound and kick for an open three.

210
00:11:01,039 --> 00:11:04,759
That's a way Central Florida can score points. On the

211
00:11:04,799 --> 00:11:09,320
other hand, you know, if Houston can score like the

212
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,320
way that they are capable of, right, like if they

213
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:17,399
play their best offensive game or what they're better at,

214
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,759
like if they play the offensive game that they're capable of,

215
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,360
capable of rob sorry trying to get that out. They

216
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,519
should score at will here. They should score points hand

217
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:31,159
over fist in this matchup in my opinion. So I

218
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:33,440
guess I can't decide which one I like better, but

219
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,440
for me, it would either take a shot with Central

220
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,159
Florida plus the points kind of knowing that they can

221
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:38,639
hang around.

222
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 3: You know, you already be the Arizona comparison.

223
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,759
Speaker 1: Listen, beating Kansas and beating Texas Tech are pretty nice

224
00:11:44,759 --> 00:11:48,480
feathers in the cap as well, right, and Houston, I

225
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,039
don't think they're better than all three of those teams,

226
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,320
you know, I think they're right in the They're right

227
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,759
in that sort of grouping. Arizona, Texas Tech, Kansas, Houston.

228
00:11:56,759 --> 00:11:59,879
They're all kind of you know, you can make it

229
00:11:59,879 --> 00:12:03,080
case Arizona's one, but then the others are like two.

230
00:12:03,039 --> 00:12:05,039
Speaker 3: A, two B, two C to an extent.

231
00:12:05,159 --> 00:12:08,919
Speaker 1: So yeah, you SEEFF potentially hanging around, but also some

232
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,960
points because I think you seef at worst will score

233
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,200
in this matchup, and Houston should be able to score

234
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,000
their points as well.

235
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:22,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, and real quick, just to specify the stuff on

236
00:12:22,799 --> 00:12:26,399
the glass, Adam is we know under Kelvin Sampson that

237
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,919
Houston lives off of second chance points. They live off

238
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,759
of second chance, third chance, fourth chance. They attack the

239
00:12:33,759 --> 00:12:36,879
glass like crazy. But you see, f is the best

240
00:12:36,919 --> 00:12:40,919
defensive rebounding team in this conference statistically so far. So

241
00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,200
that's kind of the case that we're making here on

242
00:12:44,279 --> 00:12:48,279
the glass that Houston doesn't get as many second opportunities

243
00:12:48,279 --> 00:12:51,559
as they're used to against this team, which actually limited

244
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,840
Arizona on their second chance opportunities in that game. I

245
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:57,840
just pulled up the box while you were talking. They

246
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,519
did a great job there. So again, you know, Arizona

247
00:13:01,639 --> 00:13:05,320
was at home in Orlando. This is on the road.

248
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,039
But I do agree with you that this conference at

249
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:13,039
the top, boil Boy Arizona has proven to be the best,

250
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,720
but there's a paper thin difference between a couple others,

251
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,120
and Central Florida's proven to hang with every one of

252
00:13:19,159 --> 00:13:19,679
them so far.

253
00:13:21,039 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: I'll say this on the Central Florida side, I think

254
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,600
you wait, if you want to bet Central Florida let

255
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,080
the market steam the crap out of Houston, which they

256
00:13:28,279 --> 00:13:31,679
almost definitely will. Pretty much happens every game for them,

257
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,440
and so I would almost like no, I wouldn't be

258
00:13:35,519 --> 00:13:37,559
taking fifteen and a half. Now, I'd say, if you

259
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,399
can get seventeen and a half, right, I think I

260
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,879
think I see some places going to sixteen or sixteen

261
00:13:42,919 --> 00:13:45,279
and a half already in this game. So I would

262
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,639
wait if you like Houston or I'm sorry if you

263
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:51,240
like Central Florida. But again, I think, if just for

264
00:13:51,279 --> 00:13:54,039
the sake of this being the feature game and trying

265
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,480
to give a side and total opinion, if you're gonna

266
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,759
lean Central Florida plus the points, Rob, I will say

267
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,679
the over would be the play playing back at that

268
00:14:02,759 --> 00:14:05,919
early move and taking points. And I think there's a

269
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,919
little bit of correlation there. I think I don't think

270
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,399
you're getting a Central Florida cover that stays under. A

271
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,799
game that stays under is likely a thirty five point

272
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,960
Houston win in my opinion, So maybe some correlation Central

273
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:23,480
Florida and over. Okay, let's move on. Garth has jumped in.

274
00:14:23,679 --> 00:14:27,000
We appreciate the donation, Garth, and we're going to get

275
00:14:27,039 --> 00:14:28,799
to your game. We'll talk about it right now. Very

276
00:14:28,799 --> 00:14:33,080
interesting one to me, I was I was just at

277
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:34,759
the Tulsa game over the weekend.

278
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,399
Speaker 3: I was at the Reynolds Center Robbino.

279
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: Tulsa, Oklahoma for Tulsa absolutely destroying Wichita State. Very impressive performance.

280
00:14:45,039 --> 00:14:48,679
I talked on Monday about just a great atmosphere, great

281
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,360
production they had for that game.

282
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,759
Speaker 3: Last year. I went to this building.

283
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 1: This is the Ellie the Eleanor Baldwin Arena in Boca Raton, Florida,

284
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,799
where this one is going to be played tonight. I

285
00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,120
haven't seen. I don't know if Bayou's here yet today.

286
00:15:03,559 --> 00:15:07,759
He's convinced the rims in this building are soft. He

287
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,480
he I don't know where he got that info, but

288
00:15:12,039 --> 00:15:13,879
he Oh here he is, He's there.

289
00:15:13,919 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 3: I see here, he's there. But yeah, by by you has.

290
00:15:17,039 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: Been saying all year that Florida Atlantic has just insanely

291
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,480
soft rims. They play and they and they play better

292
00:15:24,519 --> 00:15:27,000
at home because of it. Their offensive numbers are better

293
00:15:27,039 --> 00:15:29,879
at home because of it. Robino, you know who's who

294
00:15:29,879 --> 00:15:34,279
would benefit greatly from some soft rims, if that's even

295
00:15:34,519 --> 00:15:37,600
the case. That would be Tulsa, who's as good of

296
00:15:37,639 --> 00:15:40,159
an offensive team as any team in this league.

297
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 3: Rob I got a great stat for you.

298
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,919
Speaker 1: I talked for a while with the the associate A

299
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,519
d uh, the one that's kind of in charge of

300
00:15:47,559 --> 00:15:50,679
men's basketball. He gave me a great tour again. They

301
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,960
first class everything there. They were awesome to me on

302
00:15:54,039 --> 00:15:56,320
Sunday and he threw a stat at me and I said, oh,

303
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,840
I'm definitely gonna use that on the show Tulsa this year.

304
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,799
It's also starting five. The statistic is plus minus, which

305
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,320
I think you would understand that stat.

306
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 3: Better than me.

307
00:16:06,639 --> 00:16:08,759
Speaker 1: I've never never been able to fully wrap my head

308
00:16:08,799 --> 00:16:12,600
around like plus minus and how to how to like

309
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:17,919
apply it to you know, like handicapping for myself. But

310
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,360
I know it's a stat. You guys, you NBA guys

311
00:16:20,399 --> 00:16:25,799
love that stat too. Anyway, Tulsa's starters plus minus is

312
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:29,720
the third highest in the country. The only two teams

313
00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:33,279
that have a higher plus minus for their starters in

314
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:38,000
college basketball are Arizona and Houston. I listen, it's pretty

315
00:16:38,039 --> 00:16:41,279
good company, Rob. Anytime you're in a group with Arizona

316
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:45,679
and Houston, that's impressive. Tulsa was very impressive on Sunday.

317
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,960
I've liked this team all year, going way back to

318
00:16:49,039 --> 00:16:50,919
non conference play when I said they were gonna beat

319
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,600
Kansas State and they fell one point short short in

320
00:16:53,639 --> 00:16:55,039
a game they probably should have won.

321
00:16:55,399 --> 00:16:59,159
Speaker 3: So Garth likes Tulsa. I kind of like Tulsa. What

322
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,639
do you think about tall You.

323
00:17:02,279 --> 00:17:04,880
Speaker 2: Well, you don't want to bet against Tulsa right now,

324
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:08,279
but if you were going to bet against Tulsa and listen,

325
00:17:08,319 --> 00:17:13,839
I got maybe I just was too proactive. On Sunday

326
00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:20,920
it was my only loser with FAU team total over God.

327
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,559
I forget what the number was, but they were playing

328
00:17:22,599 --> 00:17:24,640
ECU and they got into the high seventies and you

329
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,480
need to get me I think eighty one. They didn't

330
00:17:27,519 --> 00:17:31,119
reach that point. And the guessing game there, Adam was

331
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,640
whether or not Vanterpool and Carlisle were going to come

332
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,839
back for FAU. And you know, you dig, you dig,

333
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,839
you dig in this business when you're betting these games,

334
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,400
you dig, you dig, you dig, And I between the lines,

335
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:46,680
I got the feeling that Vanterpool was coming back, so

336
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,359
I went ahead and played them over because they've been

337
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,440
off a couple of poor offensive performances for FAU. If

338
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,799
there's one thing they do, well, let's score the basketball.

339
00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:01,680
They fell just short on Sundays. My inclination tonight was, well,

340
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,759
I want to come back with them and catch them

341
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,039
over their team total here, which I still wouldn't be

342
00:18:08,039 --> 00:18:10,079
opposed to. It's the second game back for both of

343
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:14,400
these guys, their whole they're at home by you, says,

344
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:18,279
everything falls in Boca Ratones, So you know, why.

345
00:18:18,039 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 1: Not now the invitational rims, he says, in that building.

346
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 2: So the problem that you have here is you have

347
00:18:26,519 --> 00:18:31,359
the Tulsa defense, which has been and I'm trying to remember, Okay,

348
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,640
so if we're talking about Saint Louis the way we

349
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,319
talk about Saint Louis being two three, four cuts above

350
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,079
everybody else in the A ten right so far this

351
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,559
season in the American which you're up against here, if

352
00:18:44,599 --> 00:18:47,200
you're me looking to play FAU team total overs, that

353
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,960
Tulsa is showing you that they're more than one cut

354
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,519
above the rest of this league right now. I'm both

355
00:18:53,599 --> 00:18:57,839
ends of the floor. Been good offensively, been good defensively.

356
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,599
But I think the FA you can get to this defense.

357
00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,119
I was a little surprised that the full game total

358
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,839
came down, to tell you the truth, because I think

359
00:19:05,839 --> 00:19:08,480
it's going to be up and down here. But I'm

360
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:13,920
going to stick by my guns and beyond FAU team

361
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,599
total over seventy nine and a half, they're the underdog here.

362
00:19:18,599 --> 00:19:21,400
So that's kind of helpful to me because you're asked

363
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,039
to do a little bit less where scoreboard production is concerned,

364
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,559
because you are the underdog. The team the favorite obviously

365
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,640
is asked to score more, which is Tulsa. Can they

366
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,160
get to eighty three? Of course they can, But I

367
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:37,359
just think that a fully stocked FAU team at home

368
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,359
can get to eighty and what could wind up being

369
00:19:40,599 --> 00:19:43,720
an up and down track meet. I don't think Tulsa's

370
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:48,319
defense is incredible in something FAU can't score against. So

371
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,000
that's the way I'm looking at it. Guys. It's very

372
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,279
possible that ends up as my leg of the parlay.

373
00:19:53,319 --> 00:19:56,119
We'll worry about that down the road here this morning,

374
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,720
but FAU team total is where I'm at right now.

375
00:20:01,599 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 1: You know, this is the second one in a row

376
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,559
where my number contradicts the way the way I sort

377
00:20:07,599 --> 00:20:09,640
of feel about the game. Right So, first, when we

378
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,880
talked about I number loves Houston, but I would want

379
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:17,640
the UCF side here. I make FAU a slight favorite,

380
00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,720
just just the math makes FAU a slight favorite for me,

381
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,039
But I think Tulsa is just a much better team.

382
00:20:25,319 --> 00:20:25,480
Speaker 3: Now.

383
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: I can't just can't dispute because there's some numerical, uh

384
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,680
you know, data supporting values claim that FAU shoots it

385
00:20:34,079 --> 00:20:38,160
just insanely better at home. So that is certainly, you know,

386
00:20:38,279 --> 00:20:41,279
something that that I think you have to acknowledge. And

387
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,440
this is this is not just this year they've they've

388
00:20:43,559 --> 00:20:46,440
played better in this building, you know, it's also it's

389
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:49,079
also let's not leave out the fact that that's a

390
00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:53,240
pretty challenging place to play on the road for other

391
00:20:53,279 --> 00:20:57,519
teams in the American The the average so Reynolds Center

392
00:20:57,519 --> 00:20:59,160
in Tulsa holds eighty three hundred.

393
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,880
Speaker 3: There is about fifty five hundred there on Sunday.

394
00:21:02,759 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: That is mostly what you get in this league in

395
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:11,359
the American Right, seven eight thousand seat venues, you know,

396
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,559
like not not the huge arenas. Memphis plays in an

397
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:18,559
NBA arena, right Temple, I was just there. I think

398
00:21:18,559 --> 00:21:22,640
that place but maybe holds ten thousand, ATAU holds twenty

399
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,200
eight hundred. Right, this is a this is a much

400
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,359
different facility than a lot of these teams are used

401
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:31,359
to playing like league games in. Yeah, the ELI holds

402
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,039
twenty eight hundred people, So it's small, it's you know,

403
00:21:35,079 --> 00:21:36,680
it could be tough on visitors.

404
00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 3: I think you have to at least acknowledge that.

405
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 1: So again, I maybe lean your way a little bit

406
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,440
in respect that, you know, there might be a lot

407
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,000
of points in this game, but I do think the

408
00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:50,359
books kind of overcompensated for that on that initial number.

409
00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:52,920
That's probably why it came down a little bit. You know,

410
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,720
they threw a one to sixty six out there, because

411
00:21:55,759 --> 00:21:58,400
I think they're sort of looking and saying, well at

412
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,599
the U scores at home, tall scoring on anyone and everyone.

413
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,319
They were insane. That was an insane offensive performance. That

414
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,160
was a good you know, that was a Wichita State

415
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,359
team that's been playing really good ball lately, and Tulsa

416
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:15,480
just bodied them. There was that second half was as

417
00:22:15,519 --> 00:22:18,279
impressive of a half that I've seen them play all season.

418
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,319
So I wouldn't bet against Tulsa here, Garth. So if

419
00:22:21,319 --> 00:22:23,519
you're on Tulsa, good luck, I'll be rooting for You.

420
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,359
Don't know if I'll be on that side, however, Rob

421
00:22:26,799 --> 00:22:29,440
If Florida Atlanta takes enough money, which it looks like

422
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,400
they're taking money right now, and suddenly I can get

423
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,200
Tulsa at a pick, I may have to at least

424
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:37,000
consider that Otherwise I don't think I could talk you.

425
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,160
Speaker 3: Off either of these teams scoring points.

426
00:22:39,519 --> 00:22:42,799
Speaker 1: And your look forward FAU makes a lot of sense

427
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,480
because they've been on the road lately, at least the

428
00:22:45,519 --> 00:22:47,160
last couple of games. I think they've had a couple

429
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,880
of road games. Now they're coming back home where they're

430
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,720
much more comfortable offensively. So, Yeah, that's a that's gonna

431
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,039
be a great one. I think Garth nailed it might

432
00:22:55,039 --> 00:22:57,240
be the best game of the day. Yeah, that's gonna

433
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,720
be a great one to watch tonight. And you know,

434
00:22:59,759 --> 00:23:01,519
we'll circle back to this one if Rob's going to

435
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,359
use it before the end.

436
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,039
Speaker 3: Of the show. Rob, you you know, I don't remember

437
00:23:06,039 --> 00:23:07,799
who who requested this.

438
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 1: I did go out and get the uh purple Haze

439
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,720
bang after I went one and two yesterday on games,

440
00:23:15,759 --> 00:23:17,240
I felt like I should have went at least two

441
00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,319
and one. I said, we got to switch it up.

442
00:23:19,519 --> 00:23:21,920
We gotta go with the the bang this time. I

443
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,359
was drinking rain energy for a couple of days. I

444
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,559
gotta say, though, I don't love the purple haze flavor.

445
00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:29,920
That's on me though. It's I've I've had a thing

446
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,400
since I was a young kid. I think it's because

447
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,160
my mother gave me diamond Do you remember dimond tap?

448
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,440
Speaker 3: Is that still a thing? Oh? Dimond taps still around.

449
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 1: When I was When I would get sick as a kid,

450
00:23:42,319 --> 00:23:44,960
that was the medicine in the house, and I hated it.

451
00:23:45,319 --> 00:23:47,279
Speaker 3: I just I'd spit it out. I couldn't.

452
00:23:47,839 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 1: They'd have to hold me down to get me to

453
00:23:49,759 --> 00:23:53,599
take the diamond tap. I hated the liquid. I still

454
00:23:53,599 --> 00:23:55,559
don't do liquid medicines because of that. If I can

455
00:23:55,599 --> 00:23:58,039
avoid it, gotta be a pill form. I can't sit

456
00:23:58,079 --> 00:24:01,359
there and drink a medicine. I'll I'll pretty much throw up.

457
00:24:01,759 --> 00:24:04,759
But this flavor reminds me of that. I'm having flashbacks

458
00:24:04,799 --> 00:24:07,319
to that. So this is probably the last time, probably

459
00:24:07,319 --> 00:24:09,559
the last time for the Purple Hazes flavor. But I

460
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,119
told you I would try it, and there it is.

461
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,559
The other thing before we go to the next game.

462
00:24:14,599 --> 00:24:17,799
Of course, the package that Rob and I have, it's

463
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,720
it's up for the whole season, two days or three days,

464
00:24:21,799 --> 00:24:25,240
double the firepower CBB. It's all of my plays, it's

465
00:24:25,279 --> 00:24:28,799
all of Rob's plays in college basketball. It's been running

466
00:24:28,799 --> 00:24:31,319
pretty good for the most part of late. I had

467
00:24:31,319 --> 00:24:34,160
a really good weekend, kind of a wash yesterday. But

468
00:24:34,559 --> 00:24:36,079
we'll see if we can get it going today. I've

469
00:24:36,079 --> 00:24:38,319
already locked one play in and Rob I have a

470
00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:41,599
feeling with this great board, great slate that I'm gonna

471
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:47,000
have at least one more. So yeah, we will continue

472
00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:49,279
on here. First of all, I want to really quickly

473
00:24:49,319 --> 00:24:53,839
acknowledge this is this is just a donation from Robert.

474
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,799
You know again, we cashed in person for him last night.

475
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:01,160
He was at the USC game. They tried their they

476
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,960
tried their Dan dis Rob to choke that one away

477
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,640
at the end. I don't know if you were still

478
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,160
up watching that, but uh, it did get home. So

479
00:25:08,319 --> 00:25:12,680
USC got the job done against Indiana. Appreciate that. And

480
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,920
now it's back to games. I will jump back into

481
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,160
the chat in the second, but I did. My buddy

482
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,200
Jeff is going to this game tonight. He asked me

483
00:25:20,279 --> 00:25:22,680
about it yesterday. I said, you know what, he doesn't

484
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,279
really ask me for games. All that off, and so

485
00:25:24,279 --> 00:25:26,799
I said, we'll hit it on the show. This game

486
00:25:27,319 --> 00:25:30,559
is in Central New York at Cadarell Court. I did

487
00:25:30,599 --> 00:25:33,119
throw the hoodie on and I also hit a Patriot

488
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,119
League game on this show, which someone acknowledged in the

489
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,000
chat here. We hit one on Monday with Boston University,

490
00:25:39,039 --> 00:25:41,240
so Rob Bino, let's head to Central New York.

491
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,519
Speaker 3: Colgate Army.

492
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 1: We talked about on Monday, the fact that it's Navy,

493
00:25:48,039 --> 00:25:50,119
it's Colgate, and it feels like it's everyone else in

494
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:50,640
this league.

495
00:25:51,839 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 3: I gotta be honest, Army. Army burned me earlier in

496
00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:55,240
this year.

497
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,240
Speaker 1: Army used to be I feel like Army used to

498
00:25:57,319 --> 00:25:58,880
come up on the show on a on a Gate

499
00:25:59,039 --> 00:26:00,480
on a pretty much a daily basis.

500
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 3: Anytime they played.

501
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 1: I would almost always make a case against Army, and

502
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,319
they would almost always find a way to make me

503
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,799
look stupid somehow with just, you know, an obnoxious three

504
00:26:12,799 --> 00:26:16,000
point shooting performance when they're a team that can't you know,

505
00:26:16,039 --> 00:26:19,519
that shoots outside the top three hundred from threes. It

506
00:26:19,559 --> 00:26:21,759
was stuff like that for most of the year, Rob.

507
00:26:21,839 --> 00:26:24,359
You know, they hit the road tonight with with a

508
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:28,519
with a team field goal percentage of forty two, three

509
00:26:28,599 --> 00:26:32,559
hundred and twenty third in the country. Their three point shooting, however,

510
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:37,279
has improved. They've gotten inside the top two hundred. So

511
00:26:37,559 --> 00:26:40,480
for me, the path here is probably some three point shooting.

512
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:42,119
But I still think.

513
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,839
Speaker 3: Army's just not a very good team.

514
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 1: I'm tempted to lay it with colegate, talk me on

515
00:26:47,839 --> 00:26:49,640
to that, talk me off of that, and and do

516
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:50,960
you have anything on the total here?

517
00:26:52,319 --> 00:26:57,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it would be simple, probably too simplistic

518
00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,160
for me in this one. First of all, you know,

519
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:04,160
I always look at Colgate from an offensive perspective way

520
00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,079
more than defensive. But you have the number one offensive

521
00:27:08,079 --> 00:27:12,119
efficiency team in the conference against the worst defensive efficiency

522
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:15,559
team in the conference. That just plays into Colgate strengs

523
00:27:15,599 --> 00:27:19,480
if you just run a little bit with them. And

524
00:27:19,599 --> 00:27:23,079
this is a slow tempo league, right Nobody goes quick

525
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:27,559
in this league. So even though Armies ranked sixth in Temple,

526
00:27:27,599 --> 00:27:30,960
it doesn't mean they're fast, but they're quick enough. They'll

527
00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,240
do enough to allow Colgate the opportunities and then they'll play.

528
00:27:34,519 --> 00:27:36,680
You know, the resistance on the defensive end is so

529
00:27:36,839 --> 00:27:40,720
little that Colgate may not need a lot of pace here.

530
00:27:40,759 --> 00:27:43,359
Their team total is eighty and a half right now,

531
00:27:44,079 --> 00:27:48,920
and it just seems so doable for Colgate to get

532
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:52,319
to eighty one against this team last three games right

533
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:57,480
in that territory, right Boston, you eighty Holy Cross seventy nine,

534
00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:02,880
le Highs seventy six, nowatted the last two are in overtime.

535
00:28:03,799 --> 00:28:06,880
But those three teams I rattled off are so superior

536
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,359
to Army defensively that you have to figure Colgate at

537
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:15,079
home gets their way in this one again in laying

538
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,799
points with Colgate, and I'll just you know, we'll requote

539
00:28:17,839 --> 00:28:20,559
a lot of the things we say during the during

540
00:28:20,599 --> 00:28:23,680
the year, but if you can't, if I can't rely

541
00:28:23,799 --> 00:28:26,559
on you for defensive stops, and in this game, I

542
00:28:26,599 --> 00:28:29,799
guess if I can't rely on Colgate, I kind of

543
00:28:29,799 --> 00:28:33,519
have the cushion of relying on Army to misshots. Like

544
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,480
you can't defend, but the other team can't shoot either,

545
00:28:36,559 --> 00:28:40,519
So maybe I'm okay trying to cover this particular number.

546
00:28:41,039 --> 00:28:43,480
It's being steamed up right now. I see eleven and

547
00:28:43,519 --> 00:28:45,559
a half's out there at him at this point in time,

548
00:28:45,559 --> 00:28:47,759
but you can still shop your way to a better number.

549
00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:51,000
My lean would be Colgate team total over. But I

550
00:28:51,039 --> 00:28:54,759
don't think I could talk anybody off of Colgate winning

551
00:28:54,799 --> 00:28:55,519
by twelve here.

552
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's kind of where I was at big number,

553
00:28:59,599 --> 00:29:01,680
But I do think Colgate could get there. I think

554
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,119
this My gut tells me that this is a blowout

555
00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:07,119
like that that the eleven or twelve is not gonna

556
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,160
matter in the end. It's gonna be something like a

557
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:12,440
twenty plus point Colgate win. They come off of So

558
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,559
a couple of things I'll throw out here just to

559
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,720
wrap this one up. One, Colgate comes off a loss

560
00:29:17,759 --> 00:29:21,000
to Lehigh, not necessarily a bad loss, but still they

561
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,319
you know, going on the road. It was probably like

562
00:29:24,359 --> 00:29:27,960
a basket the spread, so not a bad loss, but

563
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,359
they lost by one, and I do think that puts

564
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,920
them in a good, potentially a good spot to bounce

565
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,920
back from that from that loss and maybe maybe want

566
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:40,160
to extend the lead at some point here. I kind

567
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,279
of think that this whole game goes over, So it

568
00:29:42,279 --> 00:29:45,480
would support your look at the Colgate team. Total, Army

569
00:29:45,519 --> 00:29:47,599
does not play good defense. But one thing Army has

570
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:51,000
done I'll go back to that, their three point shooting

571
00:29:51,039 --> 00:29:53,559
and conference play has been very good, and I think

572
00:29:53,759 --> 00:29:56,640
Army kind of so remember this was a team last

573
00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:58,759
year that had Josh Skovins is now at Davidson.

574
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 3: He was kind of the guy that could could get

575
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:02,799
into the paint and score a little bit.

576
00:30:03,799 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 1: They also had Jalen Rutger, who was a guy who

577
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,400
was one of the best players in the league. He

578
00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:10,319
was a guy that could get to the rim. With

579
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,240
the guys they have left, they don't have much. They

580
00:30:13,279 --> 00:30:15,359
can't they don't they don't get to the free throw line,

581
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,039
and they don't have much in the way of interior scoring.

582
00:30:18,119 --> 00:30:21,039
So Colgate likes to play this one three to one

583
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,359
sort of extended zone three quarter court pressure. They they'll

584
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,240
give you, like Matt Langle's gonna give you a like,

585
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:30,400
numerous different looks defensively. But my as I talk this

586
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,039
one out, Rob, I'm wondering, if you know Colgate's in

587
00:30:34,079 --> 00:30:36,559
that zone a little bit kind of I don't think

588
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,519
Army's gonna be totally upset about that, right Like, even

589
00:30:40,519 --> 00:30:41,079
though even.

590
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:42,400
Speaker 3: Though they might have to would stand.

591
00:30:42,079 --> 00:30:45,799
Speaker 1: Some three quarter court pressure, I don't think they're gonna

592
00:30:45,839 --> 00:30:49,559
be like totally upset that Colgate's gonna zone them first

593
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,279
at least some or most of this game. Because that's

594
00:30:52,319 --> 00:30:54,880
the one thing Army really does want to do is

595
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,480
shoot the three, and they really can't do anything else.

596
00:30:57,519 --> 00:31:00,240
So if Army's allowed to get, you know, get a

597
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,559
couple of threes up and they go in, well, suddenly

598
00:31:02,559 --> 00:31:05,559
you might have a game that's got some scoring if

599
00:31:05,559 --> 00:31:06,400
they're not falling.

600
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 3: If those shots are not falling.

601
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,279
Speaker 1: For Army, good night, cold Gate's gonna be up fifteen

602
00:31:10,319 --> 00:31:12,839
before you can blink. And so that that's kind of

603
00:31:12,839 --> 00:31:16,079
how I would look at this game. You know, for

604
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,119
my buddy Jeff, who's going I would say Colgate minus

605
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:20,319
the points.

606
00:31:19,759 --> 00:31:20,839
Speaker 3: He's going to.

607
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: Root for Colgate anyway, so you know, I know he

608
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,160
wants to hear that. But also the over I think

609
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,880
it gets there one way or the other, because if

610
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,559
you do get that big lead rob with Colgate and

611
00:31:31,599 --> 00:31:33,200
then they kind of go to sleep toward the end

612
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:36,400
of the game, maybe Army gets a rush of points

613
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,480
late just to you know, just to make it a

614
00:31:38,519 --> 00:31:41,000
little bit closer, and you're probably going way over the

615
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:42,079
total if that's the case.

616
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, And just to put a triple exclamation point onto

617
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,200
what you're saying about Army's tension or maybe just sheared

618
00:31:50,279 --> 00:31:55,039
necessity to have to shoot threes. They're the second most

619
00:31:55,079 --> 00:31:57,640
dependent team in the nation out at three hundred and

620
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,960
sixty five on three pointers where score is concern their

621
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:05,279
point distribution three pointers, they're the second most dependent upon that,

622
00:32:05,559 --> 00:32:09,680
and they're three hundred and fifty third in two point plays,

623
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,440
So it just shows you we're not going to get

624
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,720
anything inside the arc. Everything we get is going to

625
00:32:13,799 --> 00:32:16,160
be outside the arc. Against Holy Cross last game, they

626
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,559
put it up forty times May fifteen, but they shot

627
00:32:19,559 --> 00:32:23,680
it forty times, so you know, Colcate, maybe if you

628
00:32:23,759 --> 00:32:26,000
throw it up forty times to make fifteen, that's forty

629
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,160
five points right there for Armies. So we'll see how

630
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:32,640
it goes. But just it's a team that's so reliant

631
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:36,799
on threes, it's crazy.

632
00:32:36,839 --> 00:32:41,519
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on. I This is Jacob going

633
00:32:41,519 --> 00:32:44,839
from yesterday. Joey Cheese made me laugh with the Twitter

634
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,200
cap or play of the day, and Jake in the

635
00:32:48,279 --> 00:32:50,759
chat says that that play today is going to be Alabama.

636
00:32:51,279 --> 00:32:53,920
He says, today's I lost this comment. He goes to

637
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,240
all the fake sharps will be on Bama today. The

638
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,519
Twitter cap or play of the day is Alabama. Yeah,

639
00:33:00,519 --> 00:33:03,200
you're not wrong about that. My problem is, I don't

640
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,720
know if I disagree with them in this spot. I

641
00:33:05,799 --> 00:33:09,279
kind of think Bama. He's right about that. Everyone's gonna

642
00:33:09,279 --> 00:33:12,640
love Bama. It already steen, it already got hit at

643
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:15,400
the open, It's already steened before we came on the show.

644
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,359
I think we were up as high as as high

645
00:33:17,359 --> 00:33:21,640
as eight and a half, but ROB like Bucky ball,

646
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,839
doesn't they I don't think that works against Alabama. It's

647
00:33:24,839 --> 00:33:27,480
worked against everyone else in the league. Somehow, Texas A

648
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,160
and M is what seven and one an SEC play?

649
00:33:31,119 --> 00:33:32,119
Speaker 3: That's kind of crazy.

650
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,319
Speaker 1: They've been playing awesome, but can you do that against Bama?

651
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,119
This this does feel like a Bama blowout, But I

652
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,839
also don't disagree. I think it's gonna be everyone's play

653
00:33:41,839 --> 00:33:44,640
of the day. So talk to me, Bama, Texas A

654
00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:44,920
and M.

655
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:45,839
Speaker 3: How do you see this one?

656
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,599
Speaker 2: You know, just something to consider about Bucky McMillan in

657
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,640
Texas A and M, because I'm going through this this morning,

658
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,960
if you'd have told either of us, Adam, let's just say,

659
00:33:56,000 --> 00:34:00,640
back in August, somebody told us, you know what, swapping

660
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,039
Buzz Williams for Bucky McMillan is the best thing Texas

661
00:34:05,039 --> 00:34:07,440
A and M could possibly do. And if you said,

662
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,320
you know, putting Buzz Williams in Maryland is the best

663
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,679
thing Maryland could do. And neither one is true. Right now,

664
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,519
Bucky McMillan, at thirty two years old, is absolutely tearing

665
00:34:17,599 --> 00:34:21,360
up the SEC. But the one thing, and this is

666
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,960
projecting ahead. We're just I'm gonna go off topic just

667
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,760
for half a second here. I just wonder how much

668
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,800
of Texas A and M's success is running through the

669
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,239
league for the first time, Like when we come to

670
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,960
conference tournament time and people have already seen A and

671
00:34:36,119 --> 00:34:39,599
M and they've seen what he brought from Sanford, will

672
00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,280
results be different? And I just feel like maybe the

673
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,039
way his style, the uniqueness of what Texas A and

674
00:34:45,199 --> 00:34:49,280
M does under Bucky McMillan, once it's on tape, once

675
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:53,119
you have forty minutes of playing against it, maybe things reversed.

676
00:34:53,119 --> 00:34:55,320
So conference tournament time, maybe I'm going the other way.

677
00:34:55,679 --> 00:34:58,559
It's hard to argue against them right now. They both

678
00:34:58,599 --> 00:35:01,199
do the same thing, right, They both want to get

679
00:35:01,199 --> 00:35:04,760
into the same game. What strikes me as crazy this

680
00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,400
year and I still can't get over the numbers inside

681
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:12,159
of conference play that Alabama is the second or the

682
00:35:12,199 --> 00:35:16,840
third worst team enforcing turnovers like NATO's has complained about

683
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:20,360
the lackadaisical effort of this team quite a bit this year,

684
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:25,639
But defensively, the good Alabama teams of the past decade,

685
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:31,480
and especially those under Oats, have thrived off of you know,

686
00:35:31,639 --> 00:35:34,480
hands on ball, steel open, Floyd Dunk, speed up the game,

687
00:35:34,559 --> 00:35:36,599
Let's go, let's go, let's go. And they don't speed

688
00:35:36,679 --> 00:35:39,960
up the game with their defense this year. A and

689
00:35:40,119 --> 00:35:42,920
M does. A and M's one of the best turnover

690
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,159
forcing teams in the league. But Alabama protects the ball well.

691
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:47,960
The guards are really good. So I don't know how

692
00:35:48,039 --> 00:35:51,079
much that's going to come into play tonight. It just

693
00:35:51,159 --> 00:35:53,199
comes down to listen, a lot of this stuff and

694
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:54,639
I said it, yes, say when we get this deep

695
00:35:54,679 --> 00:35:57,239
into conference play, a lot of these games are just situational.

696
00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:00,559
You can almost throw your statistical stuff in the garbage

697
00:36:00,559 --> 00:36:02,599
and just say, hey, listen, this is a spot play.

698
00:36:03,360 --> 00:36:06,280
It's gonna work. Don't ask me why, I just know

699
00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,320
it works. And that's probably what the reference to the

700
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:12,079
Twitter play of the day is here. Alabama's desperate, they

701
00:36:12,159 --> 00:36:15,360
need it their home. A and M is you know,

702
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:23,119
coming in as the you know, over overachieving darling this year. Wow,

703
00:36:23,199 --> 00:36:29,119
it's tough. Bettioco brings a certain presence underneath. But A

704
00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:33,960
and M Adam, they haven't shown me a spot yet

705
00:36:34,159 --> 00:36:38,840
where they've just walked in and been flat like like

706
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,039
they come to play every single game. I don't know

707
00:36:41,079 --> 00:36:43,360
McMillan's getting the most out of all of these guys.

708
00:36:44,519 --> 00:36:47,559
All that being said, I'm not surprised if Alabama wins

709
00:36:47,599 --> 00:36:53,039
here tonight. I'm really not. Phillian and company hit some threes,

710
00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:57,400
get that Coleman Coliseum rocking. We've seen it before. I'm

711
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,480
not involved in the game because I really didn't know

712
00:37:00,519 --> 00:37:04,199
which way to go here. I looked at total, and

713
00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:05,920
if I'm right, I'm going back to just see if

714
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,800
I can get the current total. I believe that total

715
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:14,039
was bit downward. No, that's actually sitting the same at

716
00:37:14,079 --> 00:37:16,079
one seventy eight and a half. But for these guys

717
00:37:16,079 --> 00:37:18,840
to get to one eighty would be no surprise. Actually

718
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:20,400
it is about a half point moved down from one

719
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,599
seventy nine to one seventy eight and a half, probably

720
00:37:22,599 --> 00:37:24,400
in a good area. It's not It's a game to

721
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,480
watch for me, not a game to bet. I'm not

722
00:37:26,519 --> 00:37:28,280
going to give eight and a half points or eight

723
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:29,800
points to Texas A and M tonight.

724
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,119
Speaker 3: Know how, no way, I know what.

725
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 1: I know what Joey means when he says that he

726
00:37:35,519 --> 00:37:38,920
listen if you if you were able to get Bama

727
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,159
minus six and a half down and in and and

728
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,679
like that's a really good bet. No, no one's no one,

729
00:37:45,719 --> 00:37:48,000
I'm not We're not not making fun of that. That

730
00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:50,599
what he's saying is this is the one that everyone

731
00:37:50,679 --> 00:37:53,800
copies and paste throughout the day. And then they're you know,

732
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,880
they're giving it out at eight and a half, right

733
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,599
when it could have been six and a half, and well,

734
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:00,440
we'll say, oh, this is this my you know, it's

735
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,039
my play of the day. It's like, well, you missed

736
00:38:03,039 --> 00:38:05,920
that by two points. But that's that's what I think

737
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,599
he means by that. Now, with all of that being said,

738
00:38:10,119 --> 00:38:13,599
you get destroyed by Florida over the weekend. Gators drop

739
00:38:13,639 --> 00:38:15,840
one hundred on Bamo over the weekend, one hundred and seventy,

740
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:17,400
one hundred and seventy seven.

741
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:19,800
Speaker 3: Crushed inside.

742
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,719
Speaker 1: Obviously, that Florida front court as good as as good

743
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,679
as you're gonna find in the country. I do think

744
00:38:25,679 --> 00:38:28,639
there's some merit to this game now being in Tuscaloosa.

745
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,000
It's it they're you know, Texas A and M's not

746
00:38:31,039 --> 00:38:34,199
really gonna do that. They're gonna let them get in transition. Bamo,

747
00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:37,159
as we know, loves to play in transition, so so

748
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:41,119
I do. I do think it's it's safe to say

749
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:45,400
everything is sort of working in Bama's favor here in

750
00:38:45,519 --> 00:38:48,280
terms of like how they would want a game to

751
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,559
be set up. They're they're playing at home, They're gonna

752
00:38:51,559 --> 00:38:54,519
probably get a bunch of transition. Looks, it's a game

753
00:38:54,559 --> 00:38:59,119
that should favor them. At the same time, though, Texas

754
00:38:59,119 --> 00:39:01,960
A and M's is playing good. So for me, I'm

755
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:04,400
with you, Rob, I have no interest in I'm not

756
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,920
gonna be playing this game. I really don't want. I

757
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,199
really don't want to give Texas A and M that

758
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,800
kind of number. I'll tell you what there was. There

759
00:39:11,880 --> 00:39:16,920
was one off, off hand similar thing where every everyone

760
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:18,840
kind of piled onto the one side. I think it

761
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,159
was Tennessee saying that that was a terrible matchup for

762
00:39:22,199 --> 00:39:22,880
Texas A and M.

763
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:23,639
Speaker 3: And Texas A and M.

764
00:39:23,639 --> 00:39:26,079
Speaker 1: I believe took them into ot and lost. I think

765
00:39:26,079 --> 00:39:29,199
that was their only loss in conference play. They were

766
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,760
roughly like a nine. I think they ended up. I

767
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,239
think it was like a nine point favorite. It steamed

768
00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,000
all the way up to eleven and a half. Oh,

769
00:39:36,079 --> 00:39:37,920
this is a horrible matchup for A and M.

770
00:39:38,079 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 3: They're on the road.

771
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,760
Speaker 1: Terrible matchup terrible spot A and I went into OT

772
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,760
in that game and should have won, and that's their

773
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:47,320
only conference loss to this point. So again I think

774
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:50,719
you know it's but this is one where I'm not

775
00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:52,360
going to sit here and tell you to take Texas

776
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:54,039
A and M because I do see a lot of

777
00:39:54,079 --> 00:39:58,840
stuff that favors Alabama. But I will go with your sentiment, Rob,

778
00:39:59,519 --> 00:40:01,840
you know, do you Texas A and M playing good ball?

779
00:40:02,079 --> 00:40:02,239
Speaker 2: Like?

780
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:04,239
Speaker 3: Do you really want to lay that many point? You know?

781
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:04,639
Do you want to?

782
00:40:04,679 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 2: Even?

783
00:40:05,039 --> 00:40:07,199
Speaker 1: Why not pick one of the other games on the board.

784
00:40:07,199 --> 00:40:15,639
There's plenty of them, So interesting discussion there. Alright, let's see,

785
00:40:15,800 --> 00:40:21,000
I I'm trying.

786
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:22,039
Speaker 3: To think of what I want to do here.

787
00:40:23,199 --> 00:40:23,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll do it.

788
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:25,119
Speaker 3: I'll give it up.

789
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,840
Speaker 1: I Someone said, I've been generous, Rob, Someone said, I've

790
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,679
been generous with the client plays. And the nice part

791
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:36,760
about basketball season, the nice part about college basketball as

792
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:39,400
opposed to like the other my other main sport, which

793
00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:43,239
is baseball, there's just so many more plays. So it's

794
00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,000
like it's so much easier to come on and give

795
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,199
out a best bet a client play. Because I know

796
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:52,880
I'm not I'm not really, I'm not really messing up

797
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:56,199
the integrity of the service because you know, I'm gonna

798
00:40:56,199 --> 00:40:58,599
have four plays on a day like this, whereas like

799
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:00,960
in the base during baseball season, it's tough to come

800
00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:02,920
out and give out the client place because I might

801
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,599
only end up with one play right on a given day.

802
00:41:05,679 --> 00:41:07,039
Speaker 3: So I'll go.

803
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: Ahead, I was, I was. I haven't put this up

804
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,760
for sale yet. It will be one of my four

805
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,719
percenters today. I do plan to have multiple again today

806
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,639
because it's a great slate and there's so many different ways.

807
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:18,119
Speaker 3: You can go with it.

808
00:41:18,639 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 1: But we'll head We'll head out west, the Mountain West.

809
00:41:24,199 --> 00:41:26,800
I gave out a Mountain West client played best fit

810
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:28,880
last night that fell short, so I'm gonna try to

811
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:33,039
redeem myself here rob I took the new Mexico Lobos

812
00:41:33,039 --> 00:41:36,719
minus one thirty. I think it might be a little

813
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:39,320
bit higher than that now. I put this in maybe

814
00:41:39,519 --> 00:41:43,360
like half hour an hour before the show. They are

815
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,079
at home tonight against Utah State. It's one of the

816
00:41:46,119 --> 00:41:48,360
games of the day in college basketball, so we should

817
00:41:48,360 --> 00:41:51,440
be talking about it anyway. That is a four percent

818
00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,639
client play for me. I love the Lobos at home here.

819
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:57,039
I got to go to this building last year. I

820
00:41:57,199 --> 00:42:01,239
give them full marks for home core all the time.

821
00:42:01,639 --> 00:42:04,400
What a place that was. That is as good of

822
00:42:04,519 --> 00:42:08,519
a college basketball atmosphere that you're gonna find. And then

823
00:42:08,679 --> 00:42:10,480
the final thing I'll say before I kick it over

824
00:42:10,519 --> 00:42:13,800
to you to sort of break down this game. Eric

825
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,800
Ollen last year beat Utah State when he was at

826
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:21,159
UC San Diego. He comes over to New Mexico. He

827
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,320
brings one of the key guys from that game with him,

828
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:29,119
Dayton Albury, and now he's at home. Huge environment, huge

829
00:42:29,159 --> 00:42:32,559
home spot. And the final thing, I don't think they

830
00:42:32,639 --> 00:42:37,039
tax this one properly. We talked about that yesterday with Boise, Like,

831
00:42:37,559 --> 00:42:40,440
I feel like New Mexico probably should be a bigger

832
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,599
favorite here simply because they're at home. Like the bump

833
00:42:43,639 --> 00:42:46,880
that they typically would get for home court is not

834
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:48,679
as big as I expected it to be here. So

835
00:42:49,119 --> 00:42:51,679
minus one thirty, I just need New Mexico to win.

836
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,199
They haven't lost on this floor yet this year. That's

837
00:42:54,199 --> 00:42:56,920
a client play for me. Are you are you with

838
00:42:57,119 --> 00:42:59,079
me or against me? On the lobos?

839
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,239
Speaker 2: You know where the tax is concerned. It's just not

840
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:07,280
as flashy this year, right, Eric Oland. It's not the

841
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:12,159
they're scoring points, they're just not scoring points. I guess

842
00:43:12,559 --> 00:43:16,360
when you expected them in the Richard Patino and in

843
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:19,760
prior editions, you expected them to be a high flying offense,

844
00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,519
and then they were. The tax comes on. But here

845
00:43:23,599 --> 00:43:26,239
under Eric Oland, they started off slow, and I got

846
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,400
to say, thinking about this game a lot this morning,

847
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:32,800
I got a boatload of notes on it. But they've

848
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:37,400
come along almost under the radar here Adam New Mexico

849
00:43:37,559 --> 00:43:40,679
until now at this point in time where they're almost

850
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:42,519
hitting the rest of the mountain west over the head

851
00:43:42,559 --> 00:43:46,119
with a shovel. At this point in time, quiet, quiet, quiet,

852
00:43:46,119 --> 00:43:48,880
and bang the way they're playing right now, Dalton Albert

853
00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:51,280
excuse me, I'm Dayton Albert. It is funny. He's the

854
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:53,760
starting point guard for Utah State last year and now

855
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:57,760
he's the starting point guard for New Mexico. Simplistically, I

856
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,639
had written down to my notes. Could be a game

857
00:44:00,639 --> 00:44:05,079
where one side says stop MJ. Collins, Stop Utah State.

858
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,920
The other side says stop J Call stop New Mexico.

859
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,000
You know, both shooting guards are so good for both teams.

860
00:44:12,159 --> 00:44:14,480
We won't go into all of their statistics that they

861
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:16,960
put up this year, but I mean MJ. Collins is

862
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:20,280
all everything. Jay Call has been all everything for the

863
00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:24,639
for the other side and for New Mexico. I mean,

864
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:26,960
and I've seen him quite a bit as of late

865
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:30,679
the production there. We talked a lot about freshmen, right

866
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:34,519
but you wouldn't talk about these freshmen. You know, tomaslav

867
00:44:34,599 --> 00:44:37,760
Buon at center for New Mexico, but every time I

868
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:41,760
turn him on, he's playing outstanding basketball. And right now,

869
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:46,000
for what it's worth, he's top ten in the nation

870
00:44:46,519 --> 00:44:50,960
in both offensive rebounding percentage and defensive rebounding percentage. Talk

871
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:54,360
about a guy in the middle that just totally controls

872
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,599
the glass. One of your best, if not the best

873
00:44:56,639 --> 00:44:59,880
rebounder on a personal level in the country right now.

874
00:45:00,159 --> 00:45:05,719
Of course Hall's a freshmen. They've got another combo guard,

875
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:09,239
Ryah Tennett, who plays both positions and has played like

876
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,119
the second most percentage of minutes on the team. He's

877
00:45:12,199 --> 00:45:16,360
brought all these freshmen along. They played really good defense.

878
00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:17,840
I'm just going to give you because I'm big on

879
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,800
comp games, and let's just add to this situation that

880
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:25,679
Utah State is off of San Diego State, right that's

881
00:45:25,719 --> 00:45:30,559
going to be your big, maximum focus type game. Utahs

882
00:45:30,559 --> 00:45:33,760
State san Diego State. They won that game. Now they

883
00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:37,719
travel to a team that, actually I don't know. You

884
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,960
could argue they're better than San Diego or at least

885
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,880
just as good as San Diego State this year. But

886
00:45:43,079 --> 00:45:45,320
I just want to talk about the New Mexico offense

887
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,840
for a second because it goes unnoticed. Seven to one

888
00:45:49,119 --> 00:45:53,760
team total over their last eight games eighty ninety one,

889
00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:58,559
eighty seven, eighty three, eighty eighty nine, ninety The one

890
00:45:58,679 --> 00:46:00,920
game that they didn't get to eighty in the last

891
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:03,039
state was against San Diego State, who's known to be

892
00:46:03,119 --> 00:46:06,360
a great defensive team, and they got the seventy nine.

893
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,320
They almost got eighty against San Diego State, So the

894
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:14,079
offense way overlooked here comp game here in the pit.

895
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:19,920
They destroyed Grand Canyon eighty seven sixty four. They beat

896
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,159
Fresno State. The reason why I bring up Fresno State,

897
00:46:22,199 --> 00:46:25,039
they're one of the top four defensive teams in the conference,

898
00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:29,960
as is Utah State. All the good defensive teams San

899
00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:33,480
Diego State, Grand Canyon, Fresno State. The only one I'm

900
00:46:33,519 --> 00:46:36,639
not including there was Utah State because they haven't played

901
00:46:36,639 --> 00:46:39,719
them yet in New Mexico themselves. New Mexico's offense has

902
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:43,039
scored big on all these teams. Utah State had real

903
00:46:43,079 --> 00:46:47,840
difficulty with Grand Canyon. You know, that end of it

904
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:51,599
points me towards New Mexico. And there's the other piece

905
00:46:51,639 --> 00:46:54,639
of me that says, you know what, Utah States got

906
00:46:54,639 --> 00:46:59,119
way more options to score the basketball. But then I

907
00:46:59,159 --> 00:47:02,679
stopped myself because had Utah State before Adam. They don't

908
00:47:02,679 --> 00:47:05,719
shoot free throws very well. There's only a couple of

909
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:07,599
guys on Utah State that you can put on the

910
00:47:07,599 --> 00:47:10,079
free throw line and think you're gonna get both free throws.

911
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:13,199
The rest of them not so much. I think I

912
00:47:13,199 --> 00:47:16,239
would leave New Mexico here situationally based. I think I

913
00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:19,599
would lead New Mexico here based on prior results against

914
00:47:19,639 --> 00:47:22,559
really good defenses. And I think I would lead New

915
00:47:22,559 --> 00:47:28,880
Mexico here simply because Eric Olin. You see San Diego

916
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,880
last year, that team wound up being everybody's darling, right

917
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,000
and under the radar, he's bringing New Mexico to the

918
00:47:35,039 --> 00:47:37,280
same heights that with better players that he did at

919
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,880
San Diego last year. So I agree kind of with

920
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:42,400
the line movement up here. A great, great game, but

921
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,719
I just think, you know, the scheduling spot here probably

922
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:49,159
favors New Mexico along with a couple other things.

923
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:54,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, first of all, I missed Ski Profit in the chat.

924
00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:55,679
Speaker 2: What's up? Ski?

925
00:47:56,079 --> 00:47:58,760
Speaker 3: I got the super chat checked off.

926
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:02,159
Speaker 1: I need the Ski Profit is here box checked because

927
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:04,840
you know, and that's that's a credit to you guys.

928
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,199
The chat is popping off today and it's going so

929
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:09,280
quickly that it's just scrolling through. I missed him. I

930
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:11,280
missed him here he said. He said he had usc

931
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:14,519
the other last night. That's great, and he had Fresno State.

932
00:48:14,599 --> 00:48:17,159
What that is a that that was just an insane

933
00:48:17,719 --> 00:48:20,639
uh last thirty seconds of that game. If you missed that,

934
00:48:20,679 --> 00:48:24,639
I think Fresno State was down six and then somehow

935
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:26,760
was in the position to win. Like at the buzzer,

936
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:30,639
it was a wild finish for that game. As far

937
00:48:30,679 --> 00:48:33,199
as the final thing, I'll say about this one, maybe

938
00:48:33,199 --> 00:48:36,480
I'm a little bit biased because I went to the

939
00:48:36,519 --> 00:48:40,599
pit last year. That place is just insane. They will

940
00:48:40,599 --> 00:48:43,119
have it will be sold out. It is going to

941
00:48:43,199 --> 00:48:45,159
be their big one of their biggest games of the year.

942
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,400
It is extremely intimidating. I was there for for New Mexico,

943
00:48:49,519 --> 00:48:53,159
absolutely mopping the floor with Boise. New Mexico hasn't lost

944
00:48:53,159 --> 00:48:57,000
in this building yet this year, interestingly, they don't. They

945
00:48:57,039 --> 00:49:00,440
they've only covered I think they're only like five six

946
00:49:00,519 --> 00:49:02,760
or six and five against the spread at home. But

947
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,639
that's that's I guess the point I wanted to make

948
00:49:05,639 --> 00:49:08,760
at the beginning, where it's like you usually have to

949
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:13,280
lay at least a couple of possessions when you when

950
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,599
you back New Mexico at home. Very rare do you

951
00:49:15,679 --> 00:49:17,840
get New Mexico at home where you just need to

952
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:22,000
win the game. But and rightfully so, Utah State deserves

953
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:22,760
that kind of respect.

954
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,320
Speaker 3: They're a very good basketball team. In this case, you

955
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:26,280
only need to win the game.

956
00:49:26,639 --> 00:49:28,800
Speaker 1: Finally, the thing I think I like the most about

957
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,679
this rob it did take some effort to beat San

958
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,480
Diego State over the weekend. That was a high effort,

959
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:39,760
high focus type game. You know, seventy one to sixty six.

960
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:42,400
It wasn't easy. You know, it was a game that

961
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,840
they they probably had a lot of sort of attention

962
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,760
and focus put into, especially after recent losses to Grand

963
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:53,559
Canyon and to UNLV and so I just think having

964
00:49:53,559 --> 00:49:55,280
to turn around and go to the pit after that

965
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:58,519
is very difficult. So I took the home team minus

966
00:49:58,519 --> 00:50:01,719
one thirty that will be my parlay league as well.

967
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:06,239
All right, Rob, I'm gonna ask you if you if

968
00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:09,239
you want to do a different game, let's talk about

969
00:50:09,280 --> 00:50:10,639
the game you want to do. If you think you're

970
00:50:10,639 --> 00:50:12,679
gonna use that Tulsa game, I'll go to the chat.

971
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:20,239
Speaker 3: So it's up to you. You're muted, though I am muted.

972
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:24,360
Speaker 2: You're right. I'm going to bring to the forefront a

973
00:50:24,440 --> 00:50:27,119
team that we haven't talked about much, but I know

974
00:50:27,159 --> 00:50:28,920
you referred to it as the team where you can't

975
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:32,039
pronounce anybody's name. But it's a team that's been making

976
00:50:32,079 --> 00:50:35,239
me a lot of money quietly under the radar of

977
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,400
the last three games. That's Washington State, and I'm going

978
00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:39,320
to play their offense one more time. I'll just go

979
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,599
back to the well. Those who have bought client packages

980
00:50:42,639 --> 00:50:46,199
have seen Washington State as a play team. Total wise,

981
00:50:47,079 --> 00:50:50,440
we've cashed them. It's the second time around for Washington

982
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:54,559
State against Oregon State. That's where we're going tonight. This

983
00:50:54,639 --> 00:50:57,559
time it's in Oregon State in corballis the first time around.

984
00:50:57,599 --> 00:51:02,079
Washington State scored eighty one again. This team right now,

985
00:51:02,119 --> 00:51:04,320
they're one of the best offensive teams in this league.

986
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:08,239
Adam they've gone. Now the only team that has held

987
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:11,119
them below the number that they're asked to get to tonight,

988
00:51:11,159 --> 00:51:12,880
which is seventy three and a half, So we need

989
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,559
seventy four to win. Their team total is seventy three

990
00:51:15,599 --> 00:51:20,639
and a half. Here, Gonzaga kept them below that and

991
00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:24,639
Seattle kept them below that, and the Seattle matchup it

992
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:27,039
happened twice. And I think that's just a matchup thing

993
00:51:27,079 --> 00:51:30,000
with Seattle, right, They love to grind, they get you

994
00:51:30,079 --> 00:51:33,440
in those games. Washington State's been able to avoid getting

995
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:36,119
into those types of games with other teams that are

996
00:51:36,679 --> 00:51:41,480
sort of pedestrian style, but not as you know, poor shooting,

997
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:46,320
and I would say, willing to just run the shot

998
00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:48,880
clock down as Seattle is. Seattle's is a different breed.

999
00:51:49,519 --> 00:51:54,559
But here they're shooting inside this league third best from

1000
00:51:54,599 --> 00:51:58,400
two point, second best from three point, second best effective overall,

1001
00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:01,760
fourth best offensive efficient. See, they play with a little

1002
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,360
bit of tempo to their game, which Oregon State doesn't

1003
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:07,440
really like. And Oregon State just this isn't a typical

1004
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:11,559
Oregon State like Wayne Tinkle type team. They don't play defense.

1005
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,400
Second worst defensive team in the league only Pepperdine's worse.

1006
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:19,199
So for me again, I know I play a lot

1007
00:52:19,199 --> 00:52:24,000
of bounce back and that don't often get into a

1008
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:27,559
let's just say, sort of a groove where I'm playing

1009
00:52:27,599 --> 00:52:29,679
the same thing over and over and over again because

1010
00:52:29,679 --> 00:52:32,719
it's working. I should have done that last night with Yukon.

1011
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:36,039
I sensed that Yukon was going to have another blowout

1012
00:52:36,679 --> 00:52:38,760
after what they did in the month of January. But

1013
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:43,519
here with Washington State, it's just been going so smooth

1014
00:52:43,639 --> 00:52:46,400
with them scoring points. Just depend on to score points

1015
00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,800
they need seventy four here, Oregon State doesn't really defend

1016
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,960
anybody that we should get enough shots up at the rim.

1017
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,760
We've got three three point shooters on the floor that

1018
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:59,719
shoot just about forty percent or better, two that definitely

1019
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:04,679
shoot over forty, one that shoots near forty. And let

1020
00:53:04,679 --> 00:53:10,400
me just give you your guy, Adam Tomas thrust Starston.

1021
00:53:10,679 --> 00:53:13,840
He's a nice handy dude, but I had to go

1022
00:53:14,519 --> 00:53:16,480
and turn him on a couple of games ago just

1023
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,639
to get the pronunciation right on his name. Ace Glass. Oh,

1024
00:53:19,639 --> 00:53:22,719
before these guys are scores, I'm gonna go that way.

1025
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:24,880
Washington State team total up in over seventy three and

1026
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:25,199
a half.

1027
00:53:27,199 --> 00:53:30,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, the other the I'm just gonna add one thing

1028
00:53:30,880 --> 00:53:32,519
and then we can get one more game in here

1029
00:53:32,559 --> 00:53:35,480
before the end of the show. But like, Washington State

1030
00:53:35,559 --> 00:53:38,639
played a tough non conference schedule, and they've come into

1031
00:53:38,639 --> 00:53:41,480
the league, they've come into league play, and they've already

1032
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:44,320
had like some of their tougher games. So, you know,

1033
00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:46,599
I felt like they were a team that was probably

1034
00:53:47,199 --> 00:53:51,199
do a little like offensive positive regression coming into league

1035
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,760
play just because of the you know, the non conference

1036
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:58,000
slate they played that was was challenging relative to what

1037
00:53:58,360 --> 00:53:59,599
most teams in this league.

1038
00:54:00,159 --> 00:54:02,320
Speaker 3: Zaga doesn't count, Gonzaga and Saint Mary's are.

1039
00:54:02,199 --> 00:54:05,639
Speaker 1: Like not not you know what the majority of this

1040
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,039
league is at this point. But they played a lot

1041
00:54:08,039 --> 00:54:10,400
of challenging games and then to come out and in

1042
00:54:10,519 --> 00:54:12,719
that first sort of three weeks of conference play have

1043
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:18,400
to play at Saint Mary's, at San Francisco, Gonzaga, Seattle twice. Yeah,

1044
00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:20,880
they they may be getting into like the softer part

1045
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:23,039
of their schedule a little bit here, and some of

1046
00:54:23,039 --> 00:54:26,800
those quote unquote softer games ninety five to Pepperdine, ninety

1047
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:30,599
five against Pepperdine, one oh four against Portland, so, you know,

1048
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:34,400
eighty one against Oregon State the first time around. So yeah, mate,

1049
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:36,880
you know, it kind of makes sense that they'd be

1050
00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:40,760
able to have better offensive outputs against the lower half

1051
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:44,000
of this league, especially because they've played so many tough

1052
00:54:44,039 --> 00:54:46,400
games to this point into the season. So I will

1053
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:49,039
be rooting you on tonight. What was that number again?

1054
00:54:49,079 --> 00:54:49,880
You got there up.

1055
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 2: Seventy three and a half, And even to accentuate what

1056
00:54:53,039 --> 00:54:56,119
you just said, they went to Saint Mary's and scored

1057
00:54:56,159 --> 00:54:59,320
eighty two. They went to San Francisco and scored eighty.

1058
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:03,440
It's really only ben Seattle and I guess it's a

1059
00:55:03,480 --> 00:55:07,119
matchup thing because it happened twice. And of course Gonzaga,

1060
00:55:07,159 --> 00:55:11,920
who you know, out personals everybody in that league. So yeah,

1061
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:14,280
we'll stick with Washington State here. We'll stick with it.

1062
00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:16,960
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Something we used

1063
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:17,960
to or generally.

1064
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,559
Speaker 3: And that was give you that number one more time. Sorry,

1065
00:55:20,559 --> 00:55:21,360
team total.

1066
00:55:21,199 --> 00:55:23,440
Speaker 2: Over seventy three and a half.

1067
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:24,920
Speaker 3: Seventy three and a half.

1068
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:28,320
Speaker 2: Okay, it's got a fifteen cents attached to it, Adam.

1069
00:55:29,559 --> 00:55:32,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll make sure to note that and I'll do

1070
00:55:32,559 --> 00:55:33,760
the math on that in a second.

1071
00:55:34,119 --> 00:55:36,159
Speaker 1: We still have a couple of So it looks like

1072
00:55:36,199 --> 00:55:39,079
we're staying up late for the parlay today, both West

1073
00:55:39,159 --> 00:55:44,239
Coast games. Let's go to Let me just make sure

1074
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:47,840
we didn't have any more super chat type deals here.

1075
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:50,280
Let's see don't want to miss don't want to miss

1076
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:52,360
any of those. I'm gonna just pick one of these

1077
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:58,039
games here that's been requested at random and Rob.

1078
00:55:57,880 --> 00:55:58,920
Speaker 3: I think I'll go.

1079
00:56:03,039 --> 00:56:05,280
Speaker 1: Just trying to get a different Let's go to the

1080
00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:08,239
Let's go back to the SEC, Let's go to the

1081
00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:11,880
nine pm window. My question to you is Oklahoma ever

1082
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:15,400
gonna win a basketball game again? This team, I believe,

1083
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:18,719
is now lost eight straight and they have to They

1084
00:56:18,800 --> 00:56:22,480
hit the road tonight and had to Rup Arena and

1085
00:56:22,519 --> 00:56:25,360
it doesn't really look good for them breaking the losing

1086
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:28,599
streak here. Although with that being said, I don't I

1087
00:56:28,599 --> 00:56:30,920
don't really care for Kentucky in this spot either. I'm

1088
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:34,000
kind of leaning Sooners plus the point. So do you

1089
00:56:34,119 --> 00:56:36,440
like Oklahoma plus the points at all? And is there

1090
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,719
any way they break their losing streak on the road tonight?

1091
00:56:39,880 --> 00:56:41,480
Speaker 2: I would say, really quick, the same thing I said

1092
00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:45,639
about Oklahoma last week. If in fact they just haven't

1093
00:56:45,679 --> 00:56:48,840
thrown in the towel and maybe looking for lightning in

1094
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:52,400
a bottle Conference tournament time. Then I would like Oklahoma here.

1095
00:56:52,440 --> 00:56:55,039
What happened in Arkansas and Fayetteville the other day was

1096
00:56:55,119 --> 00:56:58,960
kind of a surprise. Kentucky walks in. Actually, Arkansas takes

1097
00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:02,039
the lead in the second half, and Kentucky shows a

1098
00:57:02,039 --> 00:57:04,440
little bit of fortitude, comes back and wins that game

1099
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:07,800
and played up to probably what their potential is. But

1100
00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:09,840
they're so up and down at them. Who wants to

1101
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:12,280
lay nine and a half with that team, because they're

1102
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:13,920
the type of team that could come out tonight for

1103
00:57:14,079 --> 00:57:16,639
Mark Pope and get beat out right for all we know,

1104
00:57:17,559 --> 00:57:21,960
one thing Oklahoma will do is score points. Kentucky's not

1105
00:57:22,039 --> 00:57:26,119
adverse to allowing teams score to score points, So I

1106
00:57:26,159 --> 00:57:29,039
don't know my inclination would be because they're off the

1107
00:57:29,159 --> 00:57:33,199
Arkansas win, because they've been so middling all season long

1108
00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:34,880
that I would not want to lay nine and a

1109
00:57:34,920 --> 00:57:38,480
half points. I would rather take them. All that being said,

1110
00:57:39,079 --> 00:57:41,840
I really think that the movement on the total is correct.

1111
00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:43,960
One fifty one and a half up to one fifty

1112
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:46,400
four and a half. Now I don't even think that's enough.

1113
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:48,159
You probably get an over in necking.

1114
00:57:49,599 --> 00:57:50,119
Speaker 3: Robino.

1115
00:57:51,639 --> 00:57:54,960
Speaker 1: Someone, someone alert Marco D'Angelo, we have a sandwich spot

1116
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:59,440
alert right here. They have the Uh this team just

1117
00:57:59,480 --> 00:58:01,840
had to play Vandy and Arkansas back to back. The

1118
00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:05,159
big win over Coach cal Over the weekend in Fayette

1119
00:58:05,159 --> 00:58:08,480
Bill eighty five to seventy seven, and this weekend they've

1120
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:09,840
got Tennessee coming to town.

1121
00:58:10,159 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 3: Of course, that was the game. Not only is Tennessee.

1122
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: Cracked their way back into the top twenty five, but

1123
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:18,360
that was the game about a week ago, maybe two

1124
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:23,119
weeks ago that Kentucky had a you know, big or

1125
00:58:23,159 --> 00:58:26,119
they were down I think by eighteen, came all the

1126
00:58:26,159 --> 00:58:28,360
way back to win the game, little scuffle at the

1127
00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:31,679
end of the game. So so certainly a team that

1128
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:35,559
is going to have Kentucky's like, you know that that game,

1129
00:58:35,599 --> 00:58:37,559
even though even though Kentucky ended up coming back and

1130
00:58:37,599 --> 00:58:39,960
winning that that game is a big deal to them,

1131
00:58:40,039 --> 00:58:43,199
especially how the first one ended and how intense that

1132
00:58:43,239 --> 00:58:46,880
second half was. So yeah, I am this one is

1133
00:58:47,159 --> 00:58:50,119
on the short list for me. I'm strongly considering the

1134
00:58:50,159 --> 00:58:53,960
Sooners here. You know, I had Arkansas against Oklahoma a

1135
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,199
couple of weeks ago as a as a best bet.

1136
00:58:57,119 --> 00:59:00,480
Speaker 3: I felt somewhat fortunate to catch that one.

1137
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:02,039
Speaker 1: I believe I was laying two and a half with

1138
00:59:02,159 --> 00:59:05,320
Arkansas and they kind of like got a big bucket

1139
00:59:05,360 --> 00:59:07,599
and a couple stops late to win that game.

1140
00:59:07,639 --> 00:59:09,599
Speaker 3: I think cover. I think they won by four.

1141
00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:14,599
Speaker 1: So man, it just feels like Oklahoma's got one in

1142
00:59:14,639 --> 00:59:17,400
them at some point, and this one's got quite a

1143
00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:19,599
big There's quite a lot of wiggle room here where

1144
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:23,119
even if Oklahoma doesn't win, pretty good chance if they

1145
00:59:23,119 --> 00:59:25,800
play a respectable game, they cover the nine and a half.

1146
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,119
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna be looking at the Sooners. I'll have to.

1147
00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:31,440
Speaker 1: I'll have to think about this one as the day goes.

1148
00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,920
But yeah, there that is a lot of points in

1149
00:59:33,960 --> 00:59:40,239
this game. All right, we'll recap it real quick. Just

1150
00:59:40,280 --> 00:59:43,199
a two teamer for us today, I will I think

1151
00:59:43,199 --> 00:59:45,920
we'll save. We'll save a three teamer for a mid

1152
00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:49,000
major Thursday Tomorrow we'll get crazy and fire a three teamer.

1153
00:59:49,039 --> 00:59:52,599
But for today, two team parlay. We've got New Mexico

1154
00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:56,920
on the money line. Call it minus one thirty and

1155
00:59:57,159 --> 00:59:59,000
you know, give or take, and then I will attach

1156
00:59:59,079 --> 01:00:01,719
the minus one fifty ten juice to our other league.

1157
01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:05,559
So New Mexico minus one thirty. Washington State team total

1158
01:00:05,679 --> 01:00:09,039
