2023 CFB Pick Em Week 8

The episode blends the promotional energy of a sports betting show with deep fan engagement, centered around the popular game "Who's the Bad Guy?" which features social deduction gameplay and diverse character roles. The hosts dive into a live analysis of college football matchups, sharing personal picks and commentary on team form, defensive strength, and betting lines. Notable games include Oregon vs. Washington State, Alabama vs. Tennessee, and Penn State vs. Ohio State, where discussion centers on team performance, historical context, and strategic picks. A major point of debate arises over a seemingly illogical mortal lock — a bet on a one-score game requiring a touchdown rather than a field goal — raising questions about clarity and personal bias. The hosts also engage in playful banter, often referencing past events, rivalries, and personal experiences, like a late-night flight with poor wake-up times or a fan’s dedication to collecting college football hats. Throughout, the episode integrates product promotions for Stell Blue Coffee, Rowback apparel, and Cars.com, all presented organically within the narrative. The tone balances humor, passion, and analytical depth, reinforcing the show's identity as both a fun betting companion and a community-driven conversation space. Final picks are shared, and the episode closes with a list of ongoing games, setting up future discussions and adding to the show’s dynamic, ever-evolving format.

So might as well start. Yeah, I'm on time. Yeah, no, no, I know I was going to do the ads to just save us time. Oh, like I was going to record the ads. Pick them week eight. Hello, Dave. Did I have two mortal locks last week? Is that what happened? You had two mortal locks in advisors. So what? You had two mortal locks. Are you looking at the records? Right now, Jack. So Jack bought, Jack did a real Rico Bosco move this morning, which fair is fair. I have to, when I, when I, when I criticize Rico for this, I have to also criticize Jack for this. He is now number one in the Bob Diaco standings and he bought donuts. So when the going gets good, he's like, yeah, I have some donuts on because everyone was positive. Everyone was positive. The first time all week, everyone was positive this week. Incredible. Incredible job was, so I was, what was my mortal locks pit pit pit, pit, who won out, right? Who won out, right? Great call. So I was below 500 last week. Yes. You were going into last week. Yes. Because remember, you said that you were, you, you, you had got that the week zero one. You didn't want the week zero one to count. All right. I'm looking with the sheets. I never thought it was below 500 outside the original, but you say so. Yeah. By the way, pit, we should have mentioned last week. That was a great call. Fucking easy. Great call, Dave. Great bet. Total let down spot for Louisville. We should have mentioned last week, something that we should probably start doing at the barstool offices, Dave. Pit, I don't know if you saw, they had a jar going into their facility for negative thoughts. We might need that where you just put it right down to your negative thoughts, put them away. See what I'm going. Listen, I'm looking at the records. Rico's six to one. I was nine, four and one. Dan was 33 and 24. I had everyone in Dan's losses. So I did not have a good week. I didn't have a bad week, but Dan fucked me so hard. Hold on. Hold on. So to set the stage for people who who obviously don't know, Sarah, you didn't fuck me. I did not fuck you. You fucked yourself. You took my, you took my dick and fucked you. Yeah. What happened was we're flying out to LSU. I didn't like the the morning session. It wasn't much. I didn't like to do that. I didn't like the morning session at all. The new and kickoffs and I'm with Dan and we're driving to the airport and I was like, I don't have any. I didn't place one bet at noon. I placed all my other bets, which were like nine, four and one Pittsburgh great picks. And I was like, do you like anything? He's like, yeah. I'm like, all right. Well, I'll bet it just so I have action. He gave me one and they peeled off like 30 other picks. I thought me the afternoon session. I thought it'd be bad. So he went 33 and 24. He was one in seven. One in six, one in six of the early. So I had I had all those fucking picks. So I was one in five. I didn't take one of them. And I wouldn't have won that one anyways because the line had moved. So you start one in five with somebody else's picks. My fault because I want action more traveling. I want to be in on it. But it ruined my whole day and my picks were fucking great. And it's just the timing of the day. And it's worse than that day because I think going into Saturday, I was like six and eight on the week because I bet all the week games. So I went, let's see, seven, 20, 26 and I can't do math right now, 26 and 10 to finish the day on Saturday. I want everything. My picks were really good too. So I like, but here's what I just, here's what happened because it wasn't my fault. Dave did say, what do you like? And I was like, well, I mean, how long we've been doing this, Dave, long ass time. You know, I like the action. I have, how many plays do I have on the season so far? I have almost 300 plays on the season so far. It's week eight. Okay. 299. Yeah. When you ask, there's no doubt it got so bad. And I said, I want to hold them. When this happened, he's like, I don't want you to do it because you're going to hold me accountable. But once you start doing a couple, you got to do them all. So go to the point because I know how it works. Dan wasn't like, I love this game. I asked because I want action. So and they were all doing terribly. I just started. I knew I couldn't talk to Dan. So I was just texting EVE like complaining. Yeah. Well, we're on the flight too, Dave. Probably the worst wake up I've ever had in my life. Like, thankfully, I've had no like serious tragedies. You don't like no fires or anything like that. We're waking up and like being like, oh my god, the house on fire. I was, I fell asleep on the plane. And I just woke up with Dave going, George is a lost just screaming that because Vandy had scored right away. Then I was like, I wish you the first time in Georgia. And yeah, by the way, that score mattered because the end of that game. Yeah. Well, to be honest, yes, I get that Dan. But come on, who's sleeping at noon? Like that? I literally was just on my my brick watch looking at the seconds go waiting to 12 because flying stinks. There's nothing to do. But once 12 hits times a blur. So what I was going to announce that Vanderbilt took the ball, like, uh, fucking the running shoot went right down on Georgia. I was catching a quick, quick, quick one first time they scored a touchdown in like 10 years against Georgia. It was a bad morning. We also had you guys should do more on the planes then if you said flying sucks. Like what? Cards. You guys like highlight steaks things. You want to do a survival? It's only you two. No, what would Dan? I just kind of like bet each other's money out of that. You're about to do it for survivor in the. No, no, no, if you're going to play card. No, if you're going to play cards like that, you need like a big group. It can't be like a one on one. Yeah. Yeah. One on one would not work. Uh, but yeah, it was a really bad morning. Uh, it was so bad that we actually, so I went one in six, Dave went one in five. The one game he didn't take of mine. I took Alabama, uh, Arkansas over 45 and a half. Dave saw it on the way and he's like, Oh, it's 44 and a half. I might take the under. If he had taken the under, we both would have lost it landed on 45. That's how bad the morning was. So it was not, yeah, look, I, I, I felt bad. I know I obviously when I give you picks, I want them to win. But I told you, Dave, this has been my whole season. The morning slate has, I've just been getting rocked and then usually I pick up a bunch of games later in the night, but positive for me. I was good. I was good. All my picks were great. I mean, nine, four and one. That's a great day. BYU prevented me from a huge day because I had another money line situation that was working for me, but whatever. I broke out even maybe not because the NFL I didn't do good. Yeah. So 57% on the year, Dave, you're killing it. Rico and I are inching back closer to 500. We're trying hard. 48.1% for me. 47% for Rico. Like we said, the Bob Diaco standings and Mortal locks. Jack is now in first place. It's over taken. Zupi. Hank, there's a, there's a, there's a mushroom in the middle. Hank, Liam, Dave, all in myself, all one away from 500 or 500 itself. Ebo two and five. Rico one and seven. Yeah, it's bad. It's just old. Oh, like the Dave's point. Yeah. I'm the gift that keeps on giving reverse. It's impressive. Dave's fading it. You're riding it. Respect. No, I had no juice in the count. Yeah. I wish they were bad. They look like shit. It was, it was such a clearly bad pick to begin with too. It's such a useless Mac team on the road laying six like whoa. He's like a, Rico's like a truffle Dog at this point. He just sent him out into the woods. He'll find something like who's betting that game? I saw it on my car I saw it in my bet slips because I put everything in after the show and I was like why the fuck do I have this game? I was like oh fuck I ride the right no the nonsense fucking game right, but you had a good week overall I missed the CBS sports games. I like I like those. I do better with those What do you mean like west? Yeah, like like CBS sports at 12 o'clock or the CBS Sports randomly. It's you like I feel like I'm doing okay when it's on CBS sports. I could feel that CBS CBS sports. Yeah, okay? So what else is going on Rico? Do you have anything to say about Zach Galen day? Yeah, I mean, you know fucking Philly plays in a band box Dave's guy took him deep. He got the best of us Series then takes a horrible turn last night down to O They got to go win in in Arizona with their three and four who are not good. So we'll see. Yeah I can't remember a home field events is like that that Philly's ballpark and baseball like ever It's great. So jealous of it being a med fan like it's great guys who just play hard the fans are all into it I it just kills you I did have a flashback because I have I have a future on the Philly's I had a flashback to March madness because I turned on the stream on Monday night and Bosco sit in the front row with a diamond Back's hat and I was like this. Well, I've never been more confident about the Philly because that was that was all March madness When you just switch you switched teams and every team you'd switched it would lose I have in like 2010 to 2012 I was buying one hat of every team to try to get all 27 not 30 I won't do skanks won't do Philly's won't do braves wait You're buying one a year, but no like in periods like you go to lids sometimes I was picking up two three got it Then then I was going to special throwback. Okay, could Jim want just splurge. We got him all at once right didn't really have the Fun, Dave didn't have the you know that's not that like it's once 400 bucks. They were still like yeah 35 a pop But that's a lot of money the shipping. I was getting them. I want it specifically what you went to lids what yes But Mickey's place in Cooperstown has a website so you'd have to wait till get it get stuff in stock like the Detroit I guess I had the 96 one the only one for one year with the Tiger in the orange brim the reds I had the white top red pin stripes. Do you even remember that has yeah rarities so I was looking to make sure I Got all the right ones. So I had the debacks. I mean I like that. I like that guy. I have like a thousand hats I have too many hats, but that's I like the the move. Yeah gallons my guy. Yeah, I can't wear Like I will for college Michigan's obviously my team. I will wear other college hats I really can't like I won't wear another NFL team. I won't wear another baseball Celtics I'm sure you're gonna find a footage of me doing something with like a pizza view for but I won't like sit on a Stream and where I actually think it was a little early on that I think it was in college and like if you were a college kid a pretty simple outfit is a T-shirt and a hat match shoes color. Yeah, exactly. You're just, you know, so it's a simple time solid move Yeah, I had the Florida mollum's old teal. That's some good ones. That that's a great hat. It was great When you have a black brim or old teal. Oh, that's great. Yeah, that was a good hat. Yeah, I didn't get rid of them I just I just keep getting it where I stopped, you know, stop going for them Okay, so what what else is going on? I feel like we haven't had a lot I mean, we obviously did surviving bars for last week. No spoilers. I've been doing good in baseball. Yeah Yeah, I'm on Mr. Rice fall on ice That's it really mr. Ice I had a funny exchange with L.O. Well mr. Ice had only L.O. L.O. is a true one-of-one type of guy his friend passed away, which was very sad and he released a pick that was like, you know, Memorial, yeah, he's like he's like remember life is very important to your family your friends You got to love your family and friends, but you also got to love the overs and he just went into his pick He also had a very yet one course. It was a moral. Yeah, you got to take the moral pick He also had a very funny before even did the video he had a funny exchange with Dave where he told Dave that his friend had passed away And before Dave could even respond he had been fine. No, he responded Yeah, and it was talking it was really sad and then he just In real time like a minute maybe 30 seconds to a minute So we probably he told me what happened. I'm so sorry what happened. I think I met him He's like, yes, it's awful the worst and we're going back and then he just ended it with I have the one at Keenland Yeah, it was like instant switch He's a true one If he wanted a little more pop, I'm like, you know, we could put you on pick central Like if you want to do a pick a day he's like I appreciate it But I kind of only do a pick a day like you'd be taking away my hole. Yeah, act. All right, so we'll just work a parlay in there So we'll see what happens. Yeah, he's got one pick a day exactly all right college football landscape Feels like we had a little shake up that washing organ game was phenomenal. What did you think about landing? Kind of put in his chips in three different times Not taking the field goal before the half going forward on fourth and three and I was ending out at that game Dan's watching closer. We were in the sweet at LSU. Yeah, I was I was watching very closely because I had obviously Washington future and Oregon plus three and a half when it bounced three and a half So it's a perfect ending. I thought the end of first half was stupid should take the points because the whole point of going for it on goal line fourth and goal line is that if you don't get it you put them in a bad spot, but I had no problem with him going forward at the End of the game that one is the least like one I have problems with not taking the the second one in the third quarter 50-50. I don't know you're on the road. I feel like take the points back. That came though. Shouldn't be an Eliminator for either. No, no, it just puts Oregon. They can't it's not an Eliminator. It's just Oregon can't trip up Where's Washington can trip up now? Yeah, but I will say Depends when you trip up like because losses aren't all equal. So like if Oregon wins out, Washington trips up late, Oregon will jump them because of the nature of that game. Well, they would then play Most likely in the pack 12 championship. It actually sets up a nightmare scenario. What if Oregon wins that game, but identical game by Three points Oregon goes. Yeah, I think unfortunately that's not really a nightmare. I mean that's just how it that's how it works. You lose And you got to remember where well does the pack 12 is that Vegas or they do a home against Vegas? Yeah, so I mean Washington one at home by three you figure that's the that's the spread home field is three. So it's basically You know a dead equal game. Yeah, and it looks like Michael Pennix. He is the favorite now to win the Heisman. The Heisman will be a quarterback. Uh, now that Brock powers his heart. So I don't know. I mean it jaden Daniels is still out there. Bonaix still played great in that game. To nix. Uh, I think actually Dave your guy because he's got Big games coming up. Yeah, like I mean, I haven't played. So you got to look at anything like if if A car rules and stomps on Penn State and stomps on Ohio State. He's gonna win. Yeah. Yeah. I think the kid from Oklahoma's a little live too Yeah, I agree with that. Yeah, I feel like he's very under the radar Because they went by week after Red River. So everyone can play anybody before Texas. Yeah. So I mean, uh, who Who successful is gonna determine, you know, what what happens? Who wins the games? Yeah. No, that's a fact. Um, okay, should we get to the games? I don't think we have anything else. No, yeah, let's get to the game. USC sucked. Oh, yeah, USC does suck, but that's just Lincoln Riley. He's a fucking fraud. Yeah, it's every single year like this. I think it actually makes it worse. To the point you were saying of how dead Notre Dame was like, obviously we're gonna get up on that game, but they could not have been playing At no and kill Williams was not being banged up to a degree. Yeah, like their bodies just Kill Williams was very bad and now he wants ownership and fucking NH and I don't believe that story at all It's crazy. I mean, who's gonna get that's just never gonna happen. So that's just I think that was just a fake story So, you know, someone gets clicks. Uh, okay, before we do the games and talk about the slate, uh, quick word from our friends at rowback Rowback.com go right now q zips polo's hoodies joggers shorts everything they have the most comfortable clothes in the world Uh, rowbacks performance polls don't miss the designs are always on point while the fabric is stretching incredibly comfortable Rowback has a polo.

Like Dave, premier college football program in the company, if you had to, which what would you say? What? The premier college football program in the company would be what? If you were asked that. The college football show. Okay. I mean, it makes a lot of money. Absolutely. I have you, have you seen what it does on the road? Yeah, kills. How many people are involved in the show? Definitely. We've yet to do a live pick them. That's true. That's good. There are a few locations. No names DJs that would love the week zero show chicken box, chicken box as well. Hmm. It's a healthy debate. That wasn't a put down on both shows. I just the college football show is a major undertaking. Yes. So you're saying this one would be less overhead. Same rabbit fan base. And the thing of like, you know, if the road going back on you, if you go to the, if you go to these college shows, I would say there's just as many like women in the audience as guys, it's, it's, I don't think they're showing up necessarily for the pick them show. How many how many women you think listen to this show? We're going to have to work on the Democrat. If you're a woman in the YouTube comments, you know, let us know. I don't think any woman listened to it on their phone, but probably on their boyfriend's phone, yeah, in the car. Yeah. We got to get that one. We got it. I mean, you said the show is not built to be a live show. Hmm, entertainments entertainment. That's true. Yeah, I mean, when we do the live shows, we even try to like tone down the Xs and O's. It's more like, you know, fuck Auburn or, or, you know, Michigan say stocks. It's, it's, it's a crowd show. We did 10 minutes on fire engines and fire trucks last week. We could do whatever you want. Sally pushed his pick. Sally pushed he's still alive for this. Yeah. Does he have, does he have another one? I'll, we'll get him at the end. Okay. All right. So no live show. I'm willing to do a live show at some point. Come on. I'm not. Well, hold on one second. Hello. He's got to take that on my schedule is pretty busy already. All right, it's fair. I'll do it. I'll do it. I just want the shirt, Dan. It's all a big risk to get the shirt. He just want sweet. You thought that the easiest way to get the rowback shirt is to do a live show. You're, what, how about I just buy you the shirt? No, I want to roll back to recognize me as an earner. Okay. That's right. Okay, sorry. He, he, he, he just wants to roll back polo. We just found out. I just want to roll back to recognize me as an earner. He just wants to roll back to give him an added we'll get the shirt, we'll get the shirt. I don't want them to be pissed off in the factory though. Like, I want them to want to give it to me. Okay. So we'll get them to want to give it to me. All right, great. Then we're all good. Okay. Perfect. Don't want to give it to Yeah, because they, they don't want you to pitch a mountain. So they'll want to give it to you. I don't think I bitch the mold. No, I don't think so either. I'm saying in the future, you might if you don't get it. Well, one thing I've learned is I would never say a bad word about advertisers. That's facts. I think you're going down a dangerous path. Here we go. Oh, I, I, I like the path he's going down because he's going back to old Rico. Yeah, that's bad people want the old Rico. You're bad influence pick up. Okay, then call me a bad influence. But when people are like, Hey, we want the junkyard dog. Uh, he's been stiffened around. Let me say this. I don't think any of these combatants are stable. So well, one of them's on Zolaugh now. They're all playful. You said you do whatever you want, just don't be a lecture. Fine. Fine. See, let's, let's just let's look at the level of attack here in terms of Defcon. It's like a point two compared to what it used to be, right? You'd do some playful jabs. He's done playful jabs. Okay, playful, fine. Do whatever. Do whatever. I just when it, when, when it goes to Defcon five and, you know, it's chaos and streets. I don't want anyone coming to me. Hank, be like, well, go to Defcon, you know, what? Fine. We'll not go to, you want to shut it down? Hank, you want to shut it down? No, I don't fucking care. Yeah. Okay. I like reform. Rico too, but like you got a, he's got it. Yeah, I, Hey, I got to have a little. Yeah. Okay. He can be lobotomized. Okay. Fine. He's walking around drooling on himself, being like, Oh, I don't say anything bad about anyone. Right. Yeah. They just take it away. Yeah. Can't have that. You know, there's got to be some quips and fine. You know that. You know, go fine. Do it. Do it. Yeah, out on me again. No, like we, no, I'm not out on you. All right. Let's all out on you. Then you take a playful jab at me then. Me take a playful jab at you. Yeah. So you, I show you I could take it. We'll do one today. We'll just keep going. Let's just go. Okay. It's like what? Taps, stand in the school yard. You throw the ball around. Though what we did, the big free tossable, I'm not out on you. You're not coming at me if I'm not out at all. I just, you know, you see again, like rearming and things like it. And I'm fine with it. I don't know that the person you're like, I, I just don't know that he is all that it's two guys that just joke around and, you know, always see the humor and everything. That's all. Yeah. But do what you want. Hey, if it's just playful jabs and the boys just having some fun, just do it. I don't care. Some playful jabs. Why, why do you say, why did you say, Hank, why would you quit to be like, I agree, I agree, I agree, you're, you're the number one rider on the planet. Exactly. Yeah, I'm kind of with you like you, I like going near the line, but I just don't want you to go over it. And, and, you know, there's some playfulness, but there might be some, some realness too. So you got to keep it playful. Fair, who's the number one rider in this room right now? Wow. You're one and seven, I'm taking every. I don't understand. Everyone's got a case. Dave's had a good month, nice, fucking Hank. What are we doing here? Alright, but he has had taken everyone is terrible. He's dead dead losers. He's traveling the country trying to get a big 10 team. He's busy too. So he might not be able to lock him in. I'd be almost 500 if it was not for the, the mortal locks. It's a good point. It's a good point. And I keep riding. I'd be over 500. Yeah, I keep going. Well, they are your picks. Yeah, if I fade it myself, it's fair. Well, you couldn't fade yourself. Yeah. Okay, your brain won't let it. No, no chance. No chance. You would do it. No, no, you'd like overheating. Yeah, it'd be like emergency emergency. What's a playful trip? Oh, was it? Yeah. Okay. And I left. I didn't see left. I just did. What'd you say? Dave, good bad ugly in this company, right? Mm-hmm. Okay, let's get to the games. That's reality show on television. We got a good slate this weekend. We'll start with the bounce back for Oregon, Washington, stated Oregon on ABC, uh, Washington or sorry, Oregon is minus 20 and a half over under 62 and a half. You're guy Kim Ward. They got smacked last week. They got this kid from Arizona. How could you possibly not start him over the lawyer? The lawyer had the job. This kid looks great. No, Arizona's been playing good ball. They have. Yeah. Um, I'm going to take the over. I don't think I do think Washington State cannot put that future to an effort. Um, Oregon obviously can score at home, especially I like the over here over 62 and a half. Dave, I have this game on my card, regardless. I love Oregon. I like the over some taken Oregon and the over. I think, you know, a loss is a loss is a loss. Yeah, but you can have a good loss. It's a very easy rallying cry for Oregon. We went out and we'll probably still go to the playoff. Uh, I think they smash Washington state who is basically dead. Uh, absolute blowout bounce back. I love Oregon here. Yeah. Uh, I do think Oregon, like that was in terms of losses. You can't get a better a three point road loss with a chance to tie it on the road. Like I just said, on the road twice. Uh, okay. So I'm over, uh, Rico's over. You have Oregon next game. Tennessee it out. I both. Yeah. Oh, you have Jordan and the over Tennessee Alabama Alabama's minus eight over unders 48 and a half. This game's interesting because it's like they they both teams have kind of gone opposite directions this year and the fact that they both play really good defense and their offense is not look good. It's a battle of the quarterbacks Jalen Milro and Joe Milton who I don't if you ask both of them to complete like a 10 yard slant. I don't think they can but they can throw deep. What do you think Rico? Well, that's I guess the bigger question is where do you stand on Alabama because obviously they control their path. They're in the mix here if they keep winning but are they that good? They just beat our Arkansas by three. Yeah, like they should have lost the A&M. Where do you stand on Alabama? Is Alabama that good? Yeah, so where do I stand Alabama? I this I don't think I they're good. I think LSU is going to be Alabama. They're going to and when the SEC West is what I think is going to happen. I'm gonna take Tennessee and the points here. Tough game. Yeah, I'm gonna take Tennessee and the points. I think Bama wins a close one. I I hate this game. I am gonna go with you Dave Tennessee and the points just I don't know if Alabama has the ability to blow good teams out and that's really what it comes down to. I think this will be played within a touchdown. Gun to head. I think Alabama wins the game but I just they they don't have that ability to step on people's throats with with their offense and Tennessee's defense has been good this year. Like they've been a lot better. So I'm gonna take Tennessee and the points as well Rico. Both teams you don't want them both teams. I feel confident in third and long if they have to throw the ball. I like the defense. I like turnovers. So I mean obviously turnovers determines every game but there's two quarterbacks. You just don't trust when the world knows you have to throw. Yes. Yeah, even with all that said and the two good defenses. I'm gonna take the over. Well, it's a low total. 48 and a half more touchdowns than field goals. More touchdowns than field goals. I like it. Okay, Albin's defense been playing really good. They have. Okay. Next up Duke at Florida State. Florida State minus 14 over under 48 and a half. I Duke last week against NC State without Riley Leonard, but it was a laffer. Is he gonna play? I believe he's gonna play because he was day to day for the NC State game. I would imagine he plays for this game. I feel you see that quarterbacks line. He threw the ball like six times. Yeah, but NC State just garbage, especially on the road. I'm reading right now. We'll do QB play. Riley and play at Florida State. Elco is up beat about it. So that's good. Rico. I'm gonna take Florida State. I like Florida State. I think they're a playoff team potentially. Like what they do with the offense. Duke probably with the back up or Leonard banged up. I also think like it's Clemson that good that Duke beat. You know, Duke did hang with Notre Dame. Notre Dame pretty good, but they didn't win that game. Like what is really Duke hanging a tad on in terms of their season. So what is Florida State? Still more athletes beat who to Florida State beat? Yeah, but LSU week one and they had another one. The same Clemson team is the other one. Fair and a very close game that they could have lost. Yeah, but who would you rather have a quarterback? I'm not sure that Florida State's guy. I'm gonna. Yeah, no, I agree. I didn't know what was a let down or a look ahead spot. Last week against Syracuse. They throttled them. So this Florida State team seems to be clicking on all cylinders. Okay, I'm gonna go Oppo here. I'm gonna take Duke plus 14. I just think their defense will keep him in this game. Yeah, I really do think that that's basically my entire handicap. This is their defense has played well and they will keep this game at least somewhat tight. Dave, I've waffled on this when I it was originally on my card and it was Duke originally on my card because I think they've proven a decent and then the line to me, you guys haven't really confirmed that bias. But the line to me is saying that Duke, like it's a lot of points and Duke has been pretty good this season. So when I thought that, I'm like, huh, if they're asking me to bet Duke, maybe this is going to be a blowout Florida State. And I went right back to square one, which is I have no fucking clue. I'm gonna take Duke, but I don't like the game. I'm not going to bet it. It reminds me a little the Georgia Kentucky game. Yeah, because yeah, Georgia has proven themselves. Florida State hasn't yet. I do love the quarterback. I've said that from the beginning. I've been on his train for like two years now. But yeah, I, I'm gonna take, I think Duke has proven when they're ready and up for a game. They can win play close games. Florida State didn't, didn't destroy clumsiness by any stress. So yeah, I'll take Duke in the close game. I'm pocket myself back into putting them on the card. Yeah. Yeah. I struggle with the same thing because I feel like this is going to be one of those games I'm going to take Duke plus 14. And there's a chance in the first five minutes of like, what a fucking idiot. I wouldn't have blinked if this line was like eight and a half. Right. Right. That's what makes me nervous. Yeah. I, it will probably come down if Riley Leonard is confirmed in. I wouldn't be shocked if it, if it comes down a little to, you know, like 11 and a half. Uh, okay. So I got Duke plus 14. Dave's got Duke plus 14. There's a very real possibility. Michigan and Florida State are in the playoff. Yeah. Yeah. No shit. Are you saying that me versus Savannah? Yeah. Oh, yeah. That would be, that would be a war. Yeah. You guys would have to go to the game and, and you know, your cheese. She doesn't like. There's no like joking around in there. She's, she's one of the few humans who can go from, uh, she didn't know they're playing to like the biggest super fan in the blink of an eye. So you got to be ready. I know. That would be a world war. Uh, okay. What side would you be on? Rico? Dave's. Okay. Thank you. Rico. That was a big of you. I also be on Dave's side. Uh, Utah USC football, Dave recipes. The other side. Yeah. You see my chicken noodle soup video? No. Try to get Alex Earl of the comments. She didn't. Oh, no. She did one last week. Damn sucked. That's, I thought you guys were like West bar comrades. Yeah. She gets, I would imagine she gets a lot of comments. Some from the same person. Oh, Jackie, you Alex Earl Stan. I'm not a commenter though. You just watch all your stuff. Jason. They're at the final full. Yeah. I tried. Well, try to introduce myself. Oh, okay. So, uh, think about gambling. Yeah. You ever want to be on a live stream, baby? Uh, Utah USC, USC's minus seven over under his 56 and a half. I'll start with this one. I know Utah's offense is hard. I will not fall for the trap, though. They will control the line of scrimmage. They're a man football team. I don't know if they can get enough offense to win this game. I think they have enough on defense to cover the spread. I just, I don't think that's a trap then. I feel like you're falling into the trap. You think so? I don't know. USC coming off yet and they're fucking face kicked in. I think the initial reaction is USC should be favored versus seven versus anybody. I'm taking Utah, but I feel like I'm falling into a trap. But Utah also got their face kicked in. Did they not? Oh, no, they beat cow. I was thinking of the Oregon state game two weeks ago. That was close, though. Yeah. They're just, they're offenses, but no, they lost 21 seven. Okay. I mean, they're five and one, right? They kill. I'm looking right now. So they destroyed cow, lost 21 seven or Oregon state at Oregon state. I don't think that's a bad loss. They beat UCLA. They beat bail. Yeah, Florida. They beat all those scoring. To me, this is a no-brainer. Seeing what we just saw, Utah seems like a trap pick. All with backups, too. I think Utah's on their third string quarterback. You know what? I'm switching. I keep saying it. I'm taking USC. Okay. I got Utah plus seven. So that probably helps your case, though. Yep. It does. It does. All right. Last game, best game. I saved it. It's the first game of the day, but it is the best game of the day. Penn State, Ohio State, Penn State's plus four and a half over under is 46. So this is, this is where we're getting fucked by CBS, all right, having the big 10. Yeah. What do you mean? Well, who has the big 10? The big 10 is everyone has the big 10. Fox, NBC, CBS, everyone has a big 10. But the reason this game is noon is because of TV. It's because of Fox. Yeah. All right. Fox, whatever the case may be, it's disgusting that this is a noon kick off. Disgusting. Disgusting. Agreed. Yeah. But the biggest game of Thanksgiving weekend is Ohio State Michigan. And that though is like a tradition, a hundred years old. I can live with that. This game should be under the lights. Agreed. Yeah. Or 330 even. It's, but Fox is trying to make this big noon thing. Yeah. That's what they're doing. Yeah. I hate it. No. It's stupid. So you what? The West Coast wakes up at nine a.m. Get out of here. This is dumb. Yeah. I agree. Here's where I'm at in this game, though. I've counted Penn State as a win for like three weeks now. I'm like, oh, I can't wait to bet Penn State. And now I'm having kind of what you go with through with Dave with the lightning bats where it's like, wait, is it is is Penn State a win year? Because I don't know. I [BLANK_AUDIO] The problem is Dan the it's not only that to me I like I didn't know how to stay single in this game I'm not sold on this Penn State train that everybody's on but four points is not insignificant correct correct Especially with two defenses that are this good is that what it's up to four. It's four. I think it's four and a half I had three and a half four and a half right now four and a half three and a half last night fun fact about Penn State Which shocked me going back to their criminals their loss against Michigan last year No, not Rico all your college basketball affiliates are criminals, so I don't know that you can keep throwing criminals out to Football like your entire network is criminals not you need a little basketball emoji with like a little like Jail or like the The burglar guy was just stripes like next to to let you know which one of your guys are convex I mean it is true that you're sliding your sliding your sliding scale morals is very like you pick and choose Some things are bigger than sports unless it's it's a guy who who responds to a happy Father's Day text from Rico facts I'll say I like Penn State Four and a half Friendly Jeff four and a half. I think this game comes down to the end. I think both these teams are significantly On the second tier and the big 10 behind my guys, but this would be a very good game. I wish it wasn't noon I I think it's I think I'll say it's gonna win You're threading a needle when you say you think Ohio State's gonna win Yeah, but you're taking Penn State because the four and a half, but I think isn't me close throughout Fun fact about Penn State, which I didn't realize so last year they lost to Michigan. They got smoked It was October 15th since that date. They're 12-0 and one against the spread Well, he's a spread coach. That's insane. Yeah, but he's a spread coach. They literally if you just bet Penn State every single week You win money. That's just how it's been working for the last 13 games and that Michigan Penn State game last year That was a macro is Michigan. I heard that's the game. They gave a pick six I think at the end of first half and Penn State maybe took the lead or something even though they had like one yard date They got totally dominated. Yeah, Penn State was up 14 13 in that game and They got absolutely smashed. It should it should have been 30 nothing at a half of Michigan just Self-inflicted all the way through the game and they still killed yeah, but five hundred sixty three yards to two hundred and sixty Yes, exactly. Yeah, all right, I am going to take Penn State and the under 46 in the fact that James Franklin does play Ohio State close or cover spreads against me doesn't beat him I think the only time he beat him was that say-quan game when they blocked the punt 23 no, it's he there then this is a 25 he's been there for a long time. This is 2015 this is like such a huge game for both these coaches. It's it's wild like you James Franklin has been building to this moment where he feels like he has a team good enough to win the east and Ryan day I even though he wins eleven games every year He's on the hot seat just because if he loses to them And then goes and lose the Michigan. It's prom. That's why he's trying to make Notre Dame. They are our tribe. Right, right? So it's it's wild the stakes are it's insanely high for both coaches, but I will say This again is a win-out like if this game is fairly close Each team still will control their own destiny if either team loses this and wins out. They're going to the playoffs Yes, yeah, who you got in this game? Block a week on state what? Franklin that makes you feel too late. Now I have to Congrats to Penn State now I have to switch You don't have to switch one more rider. Yeah, but it's not doing Welfia. You're okay. If you know it, but now you locked in Yeah, what Dan is pot committed. Yeah, I have to keep riding all right Here's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna take the under 46 and I'm gonna wait for I'll decide on the game later fun I need to look at that's the only chance actually Dan if you don't take Ohio State now. Yeah Then then they will win because you're so part of this a craps roll. You're you're in I mean, I'm one in seven. I'm one in seven. Yeah, and what are you gonna drop now? It's a Statistics are in your fit master Happy yeah, and this also is it's the perfect mortal lock For Rico in the fact that there's no real reason other than the fact that he hates Penn State again the sliding moral No, listen Franklin gets them close, but until he wins one. I could be in the right here He doesn't win the big one just like you said, so I need Ohio State but he doesn't have to I need a half to win the big one to cover the spread Right, I need a Ohio State by touch now the game's gonna be decided by one score I'm hoping it's a touchdown out of field, okay, and I like that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard that is the dumbest thing. I've ever heard That you so you're taking Ohio I think Ohio state they're gonna win the game anyway. I think I'll ask you to win the game anyway As your mortal lock you are taking Ohio State while Simultaneously saying you think it's gonna be a one score game said if it's a one-score game if it's a one-score game I need to touch down instead of a field goal The Ohio state wins by 10 is that what he said and I Hand up if he said that I'm wrong. I thought he said it's gonna be a one-score game I need to be touched down. I'm not a field goal. What do you say? I don't know what did he say pretty sure I said if it's a one-score game And there's all the people listening. What did he say? Go ahead I was writing on the game. I didn't hear it. Nobody knows what he said Hank. I don't know what he said What do you think I said can we go back? It could go either way. I do speak very fast What I meant to say was if it's a one-score game I need to touch down instead of a field goal. Well, why would you say that? That makes no sense though Do you even say that you didn't say that? Well, I'm always writing these the years. I said I Got her to you. I'm right. I agree We'll pull the clip. Yes. I agree that I'm right. Yes. What's your analysis other than the fact that you hate Penn State? Some was and I worth it like I'm you know, well, no, that's don't play that am I right? There's a chance I didn't say if yes Yeah, I heard it right and it makes it the dumbest pick of all time. I think they went by 10. Does that make it dumb? Well, that's not what you said. No, if you say I think I'll estate wins by double digits. No, it's not dumb When you say I think it's gonna be a one-score game I need it to be a touchdown on a field goal and that's your mortal lock. Yeah, it's the dumbest thing ever said on the show I said if it's a one-score game, but we but you didn't we'll go to the tape It's a good thing about the show It's a great thing about the show. I'll say this Hank. They're better not be any weird-ass voice overs Hair you hear that Hank fair. I can't wait to listen back. I know. I'm right What you think I just explode like that out of the house you're strong in your opinion I think accusing Hank of watergate is not necessarily fair But but it is true if you didn't say if and you say it's gonna be a one-score game Why wouldn't it be dumb? I agree. Yeah, pretty sure I said if we will definitely didn't it wouldn't even make sense Buck guys by 10 buck eyes by 10 or five Yeah, okay All right, what what we got to go ahead? No, no, no, no, no, let's move on. No, no, what do you got? I just know it makes no sense because you wouldn't say it that way if it's a one-score game I need it to be who you wouldn't say it like that, okay? We'll check the tapes if it wasn't for your hatred for Penn State Do you think I still would take my estate? Yeah, because Franklin doesn't get it done He gets it close. He doesn't win the big game. I think I'll take my chance if you did say I think it's going to be a one-score game I need it to be a touchdown not a field goal while making it more to lock. That's the dumbest thing that's ever been set on the program I've sent some pretty dumb stuff. But yeah, it's a good answer. Good answer. I think it's in the top 10 This is Javit yourself friendly jet friendly jet friendly jet friendly jet. Yeah. All right, Rico one do the last ad we will do our cards and mortal locks Yeah, let me tell you about our friends at cars.com cars.com is the leading digital marketplace that connects car shoppers with their perfect car Celebrating 25 years of helping shoppers research find inventory finance and sell cars Wherever life takes you next and whoever you're looking to be there's a car for that on cars.com up to 50,000 cars Or add a daily to cars.com shop over two million cars for two million possibilities find your next possibility on cars.com where to next Okay cards Dave do you want to start?

You have Oklahoma. Have the over Have the over so oh you coming off gigantic victory right gigantic victory against Texas UCF stinks. They lost about a hundred Kansas It almost was like too easy. So I flipped it. I'm taking UCF plus 19 66 and a half over I'm sticking with okay, Oregon. I already gave out 20 and a half 62 and a half Tennessee plus 8 South Carolina plus Seven on the road against Missouri. I think they can win that game over a 16 and a half Auburn at home plus six and a half Against old miss mincey told me that would be a tough game. He's the Mississippi whisper Kansas State TCU we're gonna start hearing about this guy soon from Bosco non-stop this new quarterback kid who's very good from Kansas state This is gonna be high scoring 59 and a half well be well. Yeah, and I love it. So it's hard for me to But that he might be the guy five touchdowns last week. K-State is definitely the guy K-State under the radar on that big 12. Yeah And last one these guys killed me. I think they bounced back not a huge card BYU plus four and a half at home against Texas tech I'm banking on them being a different team at home versus on the road. Okay, and Texas Tech is definitely a different team at home first road Okay, I'll do my card real quick. So we went through all the ones the main games I'm also and I will be adding more as always right now. I have Pittsburgh at wake plus one and a half I have Mississippi state plus six. Who are they playing again? Mississippi state. I think they're playing Arkansas plus six and Arkansas. I Have my Avril Hyal plus one and a half at home against Toledo.

Mizzou South Carolina over 60 and a half by the way that Shane Beamer Him breaking his foot Because he kicked something after the Florida game. He's an all-time dumb dumb head coach. He's got a he's got anger problem He's yeah, he's got anger. He threw a women off the field last year. Yeah, that's right Yeah, they were kind of They like won't get off. It was in the middle of the first quarter. It was like it was in between quarters and they were like it was time That's on the athletic department. It's not on the female student athletes. He's I don't think I don't think he cares Whether that's the men's swimming team and the female lacrosse team. He just want to play football fair But the athletic department then should have better guys and event ops Well, I mean, I know what it has to do seven yelling at the yell at the sweets be like, hey, you get them off He just you just want them off the field Title nine. Yeah, title nine UCF Oklahoma over 66 and a half as well and I'll wait for my lock Memphis minus six at UAB Utah plus seven against USC wazoo argon over 62 and a half Oklahoma UCF over 66 and a half Write these fucking things down.

There's been a lot of bad blood between Michigan and Michigan state Harbaugh's got the guys. He's gonna smash him and I think I saw Michigan's averaging over 30 points a game and they're and they're only and they're giving up less than 10 points a game It's pretty ridiculous what he's doing to these teams So yeah, Michigan minus 24 I get it rivalry game shouldn't take that many point lay that many points I just think he won't let his foot off the gas against Michigan state they're down and he's up and that's the perfect harboss spot I don't hate it take my mortar lock.
