Dave and Rico, we were just talking before, Dave's everywhere. Dave needs a vacation. People who think that Dave's retired, now he's working. Work guys everywhere. Yeah, everywhere. He was, he just, I last saw him on Saturday, and we were like, "All right, I'll see you when I see you." Like I think maybe after Thanksgiving for Ohio State, Michigan, and I was like getting a break, and he's like, "Yeah." And then he just hopped on, and was like, "Yeah, I'm going to Philly for sit on the floor with Ron." Content. Yeah. Yeah. You said you're Red Hawk Ambulin though, right? 10 on my last 11. All right. So, are you worried about what's on the horizon for next week? In terms of Feesweek. Oh, I am. I already treated it. Feesweek, yeah. I haven't been paying like, the benefit of my schedule is, I haven't been paying that close attention to college hoops. I took Michigan against Saint John Michigan is widely underrated coming in the season. They're very good. I have a question, Dave, and we can cut this if you don't want it in. But what happened to the show of strength? I needed to see the show of strength. It fell apart. Dave told me that there was word on the street. It's some, you know, it's a part of Michigan, alums were planning at Madison Square Garden to get a box together and do a show of strength for all. We were going to, yeah, it was going to, it was the funniest idea ever. It was going to be a show of strength. I mean, I guess some, some big guys were there, but it didn't come together. Like, I was told, like, Stephen Ross, Harbaugh would be there, like, the big waves. So Harbaugh went, I would have gone as a show of strength. Show of strength. I just love the idea of like, we got to do a show. We next time we get a controversy, we need to do that. We have to show a strength. That's just like, you know, it's like walking through Tiananmen Square. Like, you know, everyone like the Chinese with their guns. That's what Michigan just show that we can still flex our muscle. That's all that was going to be as a show of strength that you don't push us around. We're Michigan. Show of strength. All right, so, so when you're just opting out a few weeks, yeah, wait, you can't opt out of that. No, yes, he can if he's hot. I think he figured out, no, no, I'm not opt. I'm not opting out. I haven't been bed and college basketball really yet because I haven't. That doesn't mean anything. You know that. I'm just saying, I haven't, like, my brain is so scattered. I'm just trying to see, like, actually, there we go. Yeah, I mean, I have in multiple, like, I'm up. I have, like, over seven figures in my gambling account. Oh, time for a furniture set or a palm. Yeah, like a double or an often type thing. No, I mean, you could do it on Michigan. Oh, yeah, but I'd have to do it. Moneyline. And also, that's a game you care about already. Like, you don't need to get like, but you have what they're going to be at least, I think three or four point favorites. So you have to go, my boy, am I going to be upset? I lost a minute box. I wouldn't buy two. Like, you have to go moneyline. So you're going to have crazy odds. I actually, I hate the board this week. Yeah, there's some weird games. This is a week where a lot of the SEC plays weird, not everyone's games. Everyone's gearing up for next week. Right, everyone's gearing up for rivalry week. Yeah, you'll be in on Feesweek. Feesweek, you have to be in. I mean, it's, I lose all my score of TCU today. Yeah, so I was texting with Dave. Jamie Dixon fucked me bad. We went to TCU on Saturday. We had him on the show. And he was talking, Dave, you could tell. I'm not, I'm not both bullshitting. He was talking like they were the Showtime Lakers. He's like, we're the bullshitting. Let it team ever. We're going to run. We're going to be fast. It's going to be crazy. I want, they were one of the fastest teams last year. I want them to double the pace. So he's sitting there saying all that shit. And I'm like, I'm just going to bet the over every time they play last night. I bet the over. I got a great number too. Got like six, six points on losing value. Yeah, because the college basketball you can do that. TCU end up scoring 88 points. So they scored 55 in the second half. What was the final? Final is 88 55. Oh, so none of them are close. Not even close. But I mean, that's an understatement too. The way that Dan said he described it was not even quite. I was ready to bet him in the end. And by the way, maybe they will because they scored a shit ton of points. Second half. So it, but 88 points you can live with from them. That's right. The issue right. They did. Jamie Dixon did deliver on what he was saying. It was just for the first half. They had 33 points. I was like, if you're the way he talked about them, you should never have a half under 40. Yeah, right. Yeah. How was the trip to TCU? Good. It was great crowd. Great app. And I mean, you know, it's one of those things. I don't know that I would for the future college football shows. I think we got to give ourselves a little more flex room. Like we locked these things in so early. I think the crowd was, yeah, the crowd was great. It was a great atmosphere. But I mean, you know, they're, they're, they're below 500 team. We, meanwhile Penn State's playing Michigan with all that controversy. Like we should have been in Happy Valley. Now I granted, we still have bias. Like I know we go to Penn State. That's I off the top of my head. That's one school that hates us and will not work with us. So we got to go private on frats. It's not as good. It was great. It was not where we should have been. But it was great. You know, we met the chancellor. Like our guy Cody, a Colby, they love him there. And he has connects. Let not even close. Not even close. Dawson's Creek. Dawson, Dawson asked us if he wanted us to go to the game so bad. He's a great kid. He's a hard worker. They were saying he was doing. He's like the perfect. What he did is the vice reattice. He was exactly what we want every vice rety to do. Like he, he would like made like content. Got the eye of the university in a good way where they were like, this is awesome. He was trying to get us to go to this game so bad. Dave and I were like, dude, if Sonny Dykes had me and Dave, like Dave quarterback, me running back, we still wouldn't go to the game. Like I don't know what you're asking us for. It was, but yeah, he, Dave, I thought the same thing. The money is hard to figure out. Maybe the answer is doing like maybe like one or two less of the live shows, but then doing like four flex shows, total where it's like we go to the best game. Because that was, it felt like we were just like. It was like TCU was awesome, but it was like this game doesn't mean anything. Right. And it was great. I was great, everything. You can always tell with us the closer we are to the stadium, the more we have the basketball coach on the chancellor, the more the cheerleaders are there, the more everything's happening, the worse the program. Like Rutgers, we did it on the 50 yard. Right. Like we were in the stadium, the bigger schools, you know, everyone's knocking down their door, and they're not nearly as receptive. So it's a catch 22, you know, and so it really like, I would say overall the best we ever had, I think was probably Michigan, Michigan State at East Lansing. Like we're in the middle of everything. It was a gigantic game. But you got to find the right spot. Like we went to Indiana. We were like a 45 minute drive from like where the game was being played. So in the Michigan spot that we have every time is awesome. It's great. Like that next week's going to be unbelievable now. Yeah, but it's really small. The Michigan State one he's talking about.
it felt like we were at the center of like, what is it, Project X? Where it was like the kids were just like having the craziest party ever. And we weren't even like part of it. We were just like doing a show and they were just fucking throwing couches and shit. And it was awesome. Yeah. And obviously in Michigan has become such the story of National Championship, the whole show becomes about Michigan. But anytime we have like some sort of connection to what's going on in the game, it becomes a much better show. Like next week with Fat Ed Taylor wants to come me, the whole world looking, I mean next week's gonna be unbelievable. Shhh, it's gotta be lights out. It's gonna be, it's gonna be, I mean, it's one of the, it's gonna be a movie with some people say. Yeah, I, I, I got mad at somebody for that. The other day. Oh, it's the lamest thing you can say. Well, one of our accounts quite literally says, TCU, scenes. Yeah. And over scenes, they don't change it. They say it sings every single week. Or they're like, Ann Arbor. Ann Arbor, Ann Arbor was a movie on Saturday. Yeah. Just like I would fire whoever is doing that. So hopefully they hear it. Now like maybe I should switch it up and make it unique. Like I, when I read it, I read it in hoping that they're doing it as a joke. They're not, but they're not. Right. 'Cause like I will say that as a joke. Like the old joke on going to a bachelor party. It's like Vegas. Are you sick? What? No, I just have, I'm getting over it. I'm getting way better. Oh, no. I'm at 95% recovered. I think I'm out. I think I'm out. I just don't know what you're saying. I do a debate show every day for, for an hour. For almost a year. It's gonna hurt your voice. Uh, well, you guess they did? Well, I was gonna say my thing. Oh, yeah, you see your thing. It's like when they go, people like go to Vegas for a bachelor party. It's like, Vegas ain't ready for us. Yeah, you ain't ready for fucking 30 somethings. Yeah. Put 'em down, roll up. To go split a fucking case of Bud Light at a fucking, or Kors Light at a-- Kors Light. Kors Light. Kors Light at a table. Follow that tape. Okay, Rico. Yeah, that was not good. It's, we're riffing. We're the boys are just chucking it around. We're dropping. We're having a riff. Yeah. It's like, yes and. We're gonna take a quick break. For a message from one of our partners. This football season, it's game on with Ryobi.

Yeah, I think we'll tell of that. Oh, you know what I'm saying, baby? Well, we could do everything because yeah, we aren't done with that. I have now become like the Daily Mail. They spent the last five years trying to take Dave down. Now I'm their new target because they've run a lot of articles. It was so funny. I love it. They're doing what they do. They stack them. Yeah. So if anything new happens, it becomes your rap sheet. Yeah. It's like, it said Dan Katz, something like yelling at players, the gambling upset everybody also formally in trouble for being a perfect with Taylor Swift. Here it is. Barsson Sports Dan, Big Cat Katz is slammed for dominating college basketball broadcast, with screams of players about his bet on the game. A month after he courted controversy for his Travis Taylor's sex tape comments, they just stack it. Half the story was about the sex tape. Yeah. That's how it goes. But that was very funny that that happened where it's like, there's 10,000 college basketball games a year and all these people getting upset. It's like, I want. Like they would have been watching that game when there was five minutes to go when it's a 30 point fucking blowout is knowing that that that is what we should get credit for being people. We've been talking about what was going at that point. By the way, shame on that point guard, formally from Michigan, I just don't know how you don't shoot a three. Yeah. Like who cares? To shoot it. The whole crowd was screaming at him, shoot a three. And on top of all of it, David, so crazy me and I didn't reply to anyone on Twitter because like it's just going to people are just going to fucking take it, whatever it's going to become a whole thing. The dumbest part about that controversy wasn't even a controversy. Is these fucking big J journalists being like it's pathetic that they're doing this. They're ruining the sport. Like gambling should not be this like overt all this stuff. Shut the fuck up. The whole reason that like the media, the sports media world is going to be saved is because of gambling. We're going to spend more money on the on the on the leagues, the TV rights are going to go through the roof. People are going to cover it more. Like gambling, if you don't, if you think that gambling doesn't happen for every sporting event, especially a college basketball game in fucking November, you're a moron. You just have your head in the sand. We had a couple of foxhole guys say too. They said Robert Griffin spends fucking 10 minutes with a rose in his mouth while a broadcast is going on. So like how do you judge? Can't have it. Right. And have it both ways. No, it's stupid. It's within before the controversy, I already said we're done, like I tweeted the seconds over like we're never doing that again. And not because of the controversy is too expensive. There's a million games like Pete doesn't get I'm like, Pete, that we make a lose money on on this event. He's like, we probably came very close to break even. I'm like, how do I go? It's like, it's the most stressful thing we do. Yeah. So it's like, Hey, does it ever occur to you, Pete? You have me, Dan, you know, everyone's there. The whole crew working like eight hours. You said the most stressful thing you do and we make no money. Right. Why the fuck do we want to do this? So we'll never do that again. No. And we open ourselves like to people just being like fuck boy, like it doesn't do anything for us. No. It does nothing for us. No. Now the one person who's probably happy we're done with this is Bosco. I will say Rico, your reaction to Jerry was half-court shot was all time. All time. I was. No. I saw it. I saw it. I saw it. I saw it. The entire time. You are furious. It's a competition. It's a competition. But it's not really. It was fucking like everyone was hearing it's a half it's a half-court shot. You were mad because it was Jerry and last year you got like 15 shots and hit your one in the five. You put five. You and the you and the new puppy have it looks like are you know, it's trouble in the plate pan today together. It may not be getting along. It might not be that. I'll tell you what. It's all sleeping outside when you know there's a Jerry Jerry dropping the new doggy bed with satin sheets. The Tanner polypepper story. When when Rico tried to say the new dog, you know, no, no, no, Joe, old dogs have her leg. That sweet was just out there. I just found. So are you back on your burners? No. Joey Yanks says good things. I happen to see it. I follow. He's a good follow. He's on Jersey. Sure. He's a legend on Jersey. So Joey Yanks is Rico for anyone doesn't know. Are you back? Cause I'm fine. I think Joey Yanks is very funny. But this is a slippery slope where they're going to say because Rico actually does text me on the side to make sure I don't miss any Joe Yanks tweets. He sent you the Joey Yanks tweets. Oh, yeah. He's like, you see what Joey Yanks said. I mean, Dave are on good terms. So yeah. When he's sitting, you're on it. You read a lot. You're a smart guy. Check it out. Sometimes I miss Joey Yanks tweets. Right. I like seeing it. And you have weighed in on Joey. It seems like you have an opinion on the old like the old pup is not necessarily should be euthanized. I think you're. Appreciate it. No, he showed you. You know, you throw that toy. He may take on a second to get up on all four. But once he gets going, he's cruising. Yeah. But so, so when, when Jerry hit that shot, it's so great because you get everyone's actual reaction. Like, like Rico could say anything he wants. His reaction was, I fucking hate Jerry. I cannot be. He hit that shot. He then, he did the fake, like, bowing to him. And so people were like, fake news. He's bowing to him. Rico came over to the scores table and he goes like this to me, he goes like that as why does he could, the most sarcastic smile I've ever seen, you're like Jerry, good job, Jerry. Jerry was so mad. Browd was, he was furious at Jerry for that. You also were a little upset about the mop. Nikki spills, bro. Nikki spills. He doesn't take the game seriously. Do you think that it was not? I, I felt like I was going backwards in time when I saw you moping during the invitation. I don't want you to go there. Yeah. I'm on three weeks. I'm like, where are we going? What are we doing? You tell me like, I didn't know. Dave, dude, I do. And as it turns out, I was dead right. The table was a fucking disgrace. You were right. You were right. You were right. Dave, true false at, you and I did not have one single meeting about this invitation. One single thing said to us about who's doing what? What would you do? And I asked me every single day for like a month. What am I doing? I said, I do not know.
I'm not going to plan where do you think I would put you on the on the clock. Thank you. We should I think Pete tried But you you can't you're not certified. No, no, you do not have to be certified. Okay. Well, they asked Pete is asked before he asked last year I don't trust that Pete guy though Rico. I have a division one right like I would have gave calls I would have had a conference. I want to have a mole on a zoom everybody would have vouched for me. We have definitely asked I Will say the Nikki spills I could have done the problem. I could have done the book too Nikki spills would do an attorney's walk around spilling beer on a bus. I mean, he's not he was we can't have Bosco was not happy to be on mop duty again. He was very very mopey about it. And it's like hey, you know Eight weeks of or eight months of of rehabilitation. He's like I should be I should be roughing the game I should be in the game. I was working. I should be sitting on Bobby Hurley's lap talking to a lot of the refs Table is a disaster. I just didn't like to we I felt like we went backwards for a minute did it not It felt like last year. I feel like you somebody to the best assets Yeah, the mobile reaction to Jerry was very very funny. Yeah, I mean it was not a purpose. You can't yeah, you can't you can't Convince someone that you you were happy for them when you have I saw that reaction you gave I saw the whole thing you do it's steam People just like every single person just going crazy for Jerry and Rico just being like this fucking asshole That's my shot. This is my competition. I do this that difference three women I knew too because you were waiting till the very end to go so that was part of it He and you be lining it to their to the ball rack thinking the thing wasn't gonna go in to grab his next ball because it became a free throw Sprinting and then when he gets it goes and he goes like this it like throws his hands up. Ah man, and then and the theatrics. It was perfect How what's the plan for college basketball this year? You got content coming Yeah, you're some stuff out feels like we're you know you were the champions classic last night a couple of meetings last night.

I cannot believe we only two weeks left the regular seasons come by in a flash right now standings Pat Hill standings Dave's at 93 78 and two 54% Rico 60 and 58 50.8% I am 2235 and 232 50.3% and Yeah, it's this is this is not crunching time. Got it. Got it. Got to stack some wins. Everyone's got to stack some wins I feel like low as a show. We've been pretty good recently. Yeah, not bad. Yeah. I did the movie last week where I split my card I went two and eight during the week and I made Jack release my two and eight card and update my record because I had to start fresh going into I like that move. I had to I couldn't you can't if you're two and eight going into Saturday And you're like I got to try to get above 500. It's an impossible task. Just mentally I like that move. Yeah, all right. Let's go So anything big picture before we can do the four games? No, we got the two playoff scenarios. I've been talking about The one with five there's five spots before and I think the other scenario is if Florida state the big 10 champion and Washington will go undefeated You're sitting there with Bama, Texas and I don't think it's as clear cut as people think I actually think there's a chance for a state might be left out You told me that was crazy. Oh, and now I'm starting to think because the way the teams they've played have sucked Louisville needs to beat Miami and stay yeah, top there and get to the ACC I do still think it's crazy that they wouldn't I know I know I know I know I know I still think it's crazy I'm just starting to be like then this is how it works with these with with the subjective 14
I still think it's crazy you are right like they're not going to leave out an undefeated power 5 But I feel the tide shifting in a way to try to start to like Say oh, yeah, Florida State doesn't play anyway. I still think it's crazy I still think they if they're undefeated they're in but you can you you sense it. I mean you you sense it first Yeah, right away. Yeah, I think you were right. What's crazy right? Why everyone's like it could be Oregon fucked It could be Florida State Falk. It could be Texas flocked hold on a second. Why is fucking Bama not like third on this Dept chart. I mean Bama's good. I know I know but they lost the Texas like why do we play the games? It's crazy and your boy Dave Harbaugh just a quote machine. Yep. Just smashing the virus America's team He's now in on was it apples at no he can do push-ups and apples to beat the virus and he's now in on Shikens eggs chickens. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he said chickens were nervous bird for the longest time And now he's like you know what they actually produce a lot of eggs So I found the utility of chickens. Um, he is Dwight's true. He's right 100%. I love America's team. I love it Yeah America we all are team with adversity a hundred percent whether the adversity came from in-house or not 100% they were for adversity. It's quite something. All right games We have four games that we're gonna talk about ranked ranked It's a weird week because we have a bunch of games that are you know like SEC's playing a bunch of non-con Utah at Arizona is the first game I had on the list Arizona minus one over under 44 and a half Rico. I've been hot on this Utah team I said it last week that was kind of a miracle cover with that idiot drop in the fucking ball Miracle and the block field goal. Yes. Yes Some some's just rolling with this Arizona team. I think they might be my favorite team to bet in a bowl These are the type of teams who care about a bowl. So I'm waiting for that um They struggled though with with Colorado. Do you call that game perfect? Yep. I know But I think Arizona's playing really well. I'm gonna take Arizona here in a This kind of would be a another you know another marquee win buildings They weren't expected to do anything good win for Arizona. Pretty sure Arizona at home. No. Yep. So I'll take Arizona It's a weird it's a uh, it's like an 1130 kickoff in Arizona. Interesting. It's gonna be hot as fuck Uh, I will also take Arizona minus one I'm a little nervous because it feels like Utah like this is the type of game. They they do these weird things where they were dead And then you know, they got killed by Oregon then they were in that game against Washington But I'm gonna take Arizona minus one Dave I'll take Arizona. I don't love the game. I hate the card in general this week is my least favorite card a little season Yeah, but I'll take Arizona here. Yeah. Uh, all right next game Georgia Tennessee Georgia minus 10 Over 150 eight and a half. It's at Tennessee. Tennessee's been really bad on the road good at home That was they got smushed by Mizzou Georgia looks like they are back to being full Georgia Brock powers is back. They're now number one, which I expected them to do the college football pull Yeah, yeah, there they are. No, I know I'm saying move is number one in my eyes. It's Georgia Georgia hasn't lost the game in fucking three years the only thing you could say about Georgia was they hadn't played really good competition And Ohio State. Ohio State's Notre Dame win. They're ranked but oh, Georgia Georgia's definitely a Georgia team. They're the best team in the country. I have it. Look I assume the national championship predictions. It's back to Georgia being the favorite not Michigan I mean, it's crazy and this is coming from Michigan man. It's crazy. If Michigan's favored over them crazy Michigan is favored over them. That's crazy. Michigan. I love Michigan. Yeah. How's that possible? Michigan's plus 200 Georgia's plus 225 Alabama plus five 50 Would you make that one day? Organ eight to one. What would you make that line? I'd have like I guess Oh, yeah, I think I think it's about right to be honest. I just think it should be switched They both have to you know, Michigan have they both have one one huge game left the way you see it right Georgia has to beat Alabama and Michigan has to beat Ohio State. Michigan's at home. Maybe that's why that's it's an easier win Uh, but Georgia's back and I'm saying you guys in the championship. What would Georgia be laying against Michigan To me, they should be laying like six Michigan right now is a five and a half point favorite against Ohio State and Georgia's a four point favorite against Alabama If you want you to look ahead lines Yeah, so that is theoretically maybe what the why they have that slight yeah edge to Michigan. They're slight bigger favorite I but I think Michigan Georgia neutral field Georgia is the clear faith and this is again, everyone knows my legions is but we haven't proven that we can step on the field with them yet They haven't lost the game in three fucking years. Yeah, they haven't even been close they lost Did they lose the SEC championship game two years ago? I believe, but yeah, other than that they really lost to Alabama and then they came back. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean Yeah Who but they yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's true. Yeah, so I But I still don't even like this game. I could see it be it is a rivalry all those EC things I'll take Georgia though, but I don't love the game. Yeah, I'm gonna take Georgia as well minus 10 I do not love this game either just because Tennessee has been Good at home and they just have struggled on the road now. You're going to Tennessee although it does feel like something Like once the once we got to November, Georgia was like okay now the season's starting and now we're going to see Georgia not Totally being up for this game, but they should because they have Georgia tech next week. Do they still do that game? Yeah, they have Georgia tech next week. Yeah, so they got nothing look forward to so yeah, Georgia I think they smash Georgia. Yeah, okay, I think this is the one they go all out next week is Actually might be like a walkthrough nobody get hurt and then they're back in for the SEC championship came This is the last like dress or hurt like dress rehearsal for playoffs All right next game So we're all in Georgia there Rico your game Sunflower cop you put this on, huh? Yeah Kansas State, Kansas, Kansas minus eight, over under 56 and a half, Kansas lost their QB early last week. One and two, they lost. Yeah, no, they already, it will one was talking. He's trying to talk like bean is going to play. Then he said on a radio show, he's not going to play. I think Kansas would be going with the third stringer here. So what's your what's your play in this game? Is it? Don't give it away. Don't give it away. Don't give it away. Don't give it away. Don't give it away. Might have an acronym as well, but I won't give anything away. So the quarterback is what? What's the quarterback situation? Kansas is on their third string. Yeah, that the kid got hurt early last week, ruined. That was one of my picks. I got a double loser because of that. I'll tell you, I would have taken Kansas, but they, I don't, I don't see any of the game last week, except I know the quarterback got hurt. I think their offense was very good. Suddenly they couldn't move the ball at all against Texas tech. So I'm going to take Kansas state here. It's a shame. Kansas state. If they beat Texas, they'd be right in that thick of it for the big 12. I know the big 12 is chaos right now. Like it's a lot of chaos, but I think it's going to line up to be Oklahoma with the tie breakers. Could be Oklahoma, Texas again. Yeah, although we'll get to Texas. Yeah. So okay. So you are lean case state here. Okay. And Dave, you're going to get a nice job. Good job. Good job. Good job. All right. I'm on Kansas state as well. This is bad that we all have the same. No, it's not. Have you seen the historic run down? Have you seen the historic run down of this rival? No, I'm saying it's bad that all three of us have gone through three games. We all agree on all three games. That's bad. Yeah. Okay. That is bad. It's bad. I'm also going to take Kansas state. Let me find a team total. I'm going to take Kansas state over 31 and a half. That's it. Oh, Jesus. I'll take that. Actually, no, it's 33 and a half is the minus one 15. Okay. 33 and a half. I like that. I'll take that as well. Okay. Last game. But it's just a lean. Just a lean. It's just a lean. It's just a lean right now, acronyms. Last game, Washington at Oregon State, night game is the best game on the on the card. This is the best game in terms of the playoff picture. Oregon State's minus two and a half over under 63 and a half. David. I like Oregon State a lot. I think they win this game. The pack 10 continues to move around to, you know, home teams being the better team washing. I think it's high scoring. I think Oregon state wins. I'll take Oregon State and the over. I've worked. I've, uh, Oregon State as well. Oregon State. Okay. I don't think the playoff picture works out like we always do. Washington seems to have been flying a little too close to the sun in some of these games. It's hard to go undefeated. It's hard to go undefeated in the pack 12, which is known for chaos. Oregon State biggest home game. And what would you say? 10, 15 in terms of like there. I don't think the pack 12 is known for kids. Yeah. No, it is. They eat each other up all the time. Every time Oregon had a, every time Oregon had a path to the playoff, they go loose to Arizona in like 2011, 2012. Arizona State with Justin Herbert. I'm going to agree with you, Rico. It is. They cannibalize themselves. They will always get 100 end of the end of the USC fucks things up. Like it 100. I think it's, it's Oregon State here. And the line seems to point Oregon State wise. So that's probably you could say. It's like one of the reason it's obviously more complicated, but the pack 12 dying part of it is that they haven't got
in the fucking playoff and forever. Yeah, Washington. And it's because their teams just kicked the shit out of each other. Well, they didn't have Oregon or gone Auburn, Oregon was, yeah, that was the first or second year of the playoff Cam Newton. Second, no, that wasn't, it was that Cam Newton. Yeah, that was. That was the playoff. Yeah, because Oregon beat Florida State. It was the first year of the playoff. Yeah, Florida State won the last BCS. The next year for Oregon beat James and Florida State to get to the. And then Washington was the only other Washington was in the year after and they got absolutely smothered by Alabama. Yeah, that was the worst playoff. There was Michigan State also. It was New Year's. Yeah, waxed. Yeah. Hey, pick them listeners.

I had this my small I told you I hate that I have one, two, three, I have five games. Damn. Yeah, I hated the board. I will still find a way to have 40 plays. Yeah, I mean, I'm sure I'll do more, but I usually have no problem. I just go routinely through the card of 20 note five. All right, so do your card, Dave, and then we'll do locks. I've been right. Excuse me. I'm definitely going a little bit sick. I've been I reversed on this team because if we do a flashback when we start picking on my set, I'm just going to more lock whoever is playing Northwestern entire season. I have now flipped to starting to take them every week and they're paying huge dividends. They've covered easily like three weeks and rose smashed Wisconsin last week. Purdue at Northwestern, Northwestern, plus three give me Northwestern again, Kansas State, Kansas, we talked about Kansas the quarterback out. That's all the difference team total Kansas State Oregon State minus two and a half over 63 and a half against Washington. I liked the over in Florida, Missouri 58 and a half and then Iowa State at home plus seven and a half against Texas. I did a similar one with Iowa State was at Merce Kansas State. I think I can't remember. They didn't live up to it. Kansas, Kansas, they got Kansas night game at home seven and a half. I'll give them another shot. Same Rico. All right. I am on SMU Memphis over 66 and a half. I kind of missed these big numbers. The feel like the big numbers are gone with the change of the first downs. A little bit. Have you seen a total in the 70s other than USC Oregon or short seem like there was a lot more. Yeah, you know what I mean. So back to the big time overs to good offenses. I'll take that Georgia rolls minus the 10 Oregon State minus the two and a half. I was state plus seven and a half. I think you could sprinkle that outright. I talked about it seems like the big 12 kind of rises itself. When they're supposed to run the table through West Virginia 07. Texas a variety of different ways. TCU almost fucked it up last year. I think I was taking when the game outright. I'll take the plus seven and a half and Oregon Arizona State over 53 and a half. So Oregon favored by 23 and a half. That's given you what 35 seven terms of a score. If they're going to cover that. That's 42 points. I need 10 more 11 more to cover. Oregon can roll it on people. Give me the over 53 and a half. Okay. I have all the all the games we just talked about. And then I am going to do the over in Florida, Mizzou at 58 and a half. This is a dumb bet. I'm going to take Wisconsin more minus four and a half at home against Nebraska. Luke fickle said we're going to find out this week who wants to be here. This is just rock bottom. Like they are rock bottom. Well, they're playing rock bottom. They are playing rock bottom. But this is the lowest Wisconsin's been in a very long time. This feels like the time that you hop back in because like you will get their best effort for four quarters. That was a debacle, a debacle against against Northwestern. Like they're going to be coming out of the West guaranteed. I think Iowa did clinch. Yeah, I would did clinch. So I have that. Those two plays. I'm going to I have the Kansas State and the Kansas State over. Like I said, and then what was my other play? Oh, I have my lock. Oh, I'm going to take I'll take. Yeah, I'm going to I'll say my lock. I'll say my lock. I will have more plays. I have a lot more plays. I have to dive into it. I'm going to second. Oh, LSU minus 31. That was the other one. I think LSU is going to just try to get you in Daniel's eyes and and they're playing Georgia state. They got to just they got to put up. I probably will take the team total as well. I kind of like old miss is a list game. Technically. Oh, we're bringing the list back. Yeah, it's the last chance. You know what? Give me a little miss against ULM. Okay. List. Okay. Last chance. You can get it. Okay. Um, I just worried about Lane. Not who does he have Mississippi state next week? Oh, he's not worried about that. Well, he is maybe with the rivalry. Ole Miss. Fuck it. Ole Miss. Throw it on the card. I like it. All right, locks. Bob Diaco standings. Jack and I are in first place. Seven and four. Zupi in second. Six and four. Dave. You should have seen this. I walked in this morning. Dishon Watson out for the year. Zupi was on the phone with his dad. He's a Browns fan from Cleveland. It was the saddest conversation I've ever seen. He was they the tone they were talking in was like someone had just died. He was in the family. And I heard Zupi just go. This is what we do. This is what we do. And he goes. That's two weeks. We've ever had what is going on. It was really dark. Best two weeks. We've ever had. It's so sad. Just a look into the Browns fandom for a second. Um, all right, Zupi's in second. Liam is in third. And then we have a tie for fourth with Hank and Ebo. And then in fifth, a tie with Dave and Rico five and seven. I'm tanking in this portion of the show. It's weird because in college football show, I'm very good in my mortals. So I don't know what I'm doing. Yeah, Rico would like to start. Game of the year volume two. Oh, K state. K state. My game of the year. And Bill Snyder cleaned out his office. He handed it in his key. He handed it in his fucking credentials, but he left a little note in there. And it says, this is how you beat the shit out of Kansas. Climate has done it. Third string quarterback. They're going to go to fucking Lawrence. And they're going to fucking smash them. Will Howard is a warrior. Giddens is going to be giddens them fucking touchdowns. They're going to fucking smoke them. K state. Again, it's my favorite game of the year. I hate that it's at seven o'clock. Give it to me at fucking nine a.m. I want to wake up and watch them fucking pound them. K state. I love it. I love it. I'm going to fucking kill. This is the ultimate. Remember the next video when Rico had it in the Philly House. Yeah, it's the best. It's the best. All right, Jack, what's your lock? I'm doing Oregon state minus two and a half Oregon state minus two and a half. That was on my list of possible locks. Zupi Georgia minus 10 Georgia minus 10 Bubba Washington, Oregon state over. Oh, okay, Hank. I was going to take Washington, but I feel like me and Jack have been on opposite sides every, like every game this year, not lost. Somebody go Kansas. Wow, you're going to go. Wow, fly rivalry game. You're going to get a lot of points. It's a lot of points. Wow. It's November 15th. This is now the most crucial month of the year. Every day is a stroke. Like you're going to go Kansas. Wow. All right. Okay. Dave Hank walked in late today. You went around the TV. Joey Yank saw it. He broke the news. Oh, no, we got, we got a rife in the writer world. Okay, Dave Hank, they are going to kill after you've been a little tough of a week, but you're scheduling things and now you got Kansas. What's scheduling things? The ride isn't that okay. The riders are not going to be happy about this. What do you want me to say? I want to win. I want to win. I want to win more. All right. They will not be happy. Dave, what did I have last week? Does it say you won last week? Right? Let me find it. Did I win last week? No, you had the over in Texas tech Kansas. Yeah. The Kansas quarterback. That's bullshit. All right. I'm going to take North Western. They've been good to me. Plus three at home against Purdue. Okay. I'm going to take my motor locks going to be Auburn minus 24. Give me the say Auburn. Auburn. Auburn. Uh, this is solely so New Mexico States. One of my favorite teams Diego Pavia is electric. I think he's hurt. And if you look at what New Mexico state has, they are second in the conference USA. This game means nothing to them. And they have Jacksonville state who is third in the conference USA next week. So that will be the game to decide who goes to the conference USA. But championship game. So this game means nothing to them. If they can just basically say anyone who's a little dinged up. Don't play. Uh, I think Auburn will, we'll smash him and New Mexico state has literally nothing to play for right now. Nothing.
They they just want to get in get out and not get any more injuries. Uh, all right. Good pick him anything else. What are you doing right now? Oh, he's making a call. He's making a call. Oh, no, because of Hank. All right. I'll see, boys, it's all for six. Hello, Sol. Hey, Hank flipped. I'll tell you more later. Listen, when you say something, you're gonna tell me to sit down first. Fair enough. I know. I didn't expect it either. It's a hard time, but I'll give you more, but Hank flipped document. Hey, Sol. Hey, it's big cat. Hey, Dan, good to hear from you. I'm as strong as ever. I'm on Kansas State. I mean, I, I have to sit down for a second. I'm sorry again. Uh, this is tough. This is tough to hear. Um, well, I know. We'll, we'll, we'll have a zoom. We'll figure it out. They're upset, Hank. This is what you're doing to my guys. All right. Thanks, Sol. I'm getting emotional over here. What are you doing? We'll get through this.
