It is a week six. It is Dave and first with 56%. He is 40 and 31. I am 81 and 70 with 53% Bosco in last 2635 for 42%. How are we doing, boys? We're five weeks into the season. Going into week six, feels like we can start to know some more shit. How are we feeling? I will say I did bet the pick and parlay, the normal one, not a huge bet in my scheme, but I haven't won anything and I won it. So that was nice. Yeah, that was nice. I had that over that Arkansas Notre Dame over for a while. Yeah, that was easy. Needed that bad. Utah State was a backdoor last second touchdown. So that saved it. And then what was the third one or Oregon? Yeah, yeah, which is a great pick, Bosco. Do you have anything to say for a former writer, Henry Lockwood? No, Rico. Rico is white. No, I was asked to Rico. Oh, if you had anything to say to you, sorry. It just would have been so much fun, Hank, to play the villain. You go in there, fucking quack and in Mac, like you and Max are fucking young and young. Like you would have been able to throw it in his face, which you love doing. Like I don't, I don't know. I know you should, you know, he's your guy now, but like I was your guy forever. It would have been a good one to play the villain. Yeah, you know, you're right. You were right. You were, you were dead right. It was a, it was a good atmosphere. It is a bit of a cult, but I wish I was, I wish I was on the ducks. Yeah, stay pen for a reason. Great fans of passion and passionate fans. Yeah, when I happened with the flight, you would just, you just missed. Yeah, I just woke up too late. Yeah. Yeah, that was tough. He missed the flight, Dave. Yeah, I saw that. Yeah. It's a, hey, listen, he owned it. The tweet where he was just like for all the people saying, I'm childish and immature. You're right. What are you going to do? He got me on that one. I, yeah, it's be rabbit. I am white. I am dumb. Yeah. To live in a trailer with my mom. You know, by the way, I got a funny anecdote. So the playoff baseball is here. Very fun. I was at the Cubs game on, so we're taping this on Wednesday. I'm going to go to game two, but I was at game one as well. And there was four stuilly sitting in front of me. And like, you know, it was like maybe the second ending and they realized they like recognize my voice. I took Eddie and Titus. And so they're like, oh, like, what's up guys? And I was like, all right, here comes a question. They're like, we got one question for you. Like, like, just totally off the record. And I was like, what? Eddie just goes, how much of Bosco put on that parlay? I was like, you could ask me any question. That's what they wanted to know. I already were off the meds. Yeah. Put your back on now. No, still off because there's a problem with them getting them or why aren't you on them? I don't think they're necessarily like the greatest. I ran. I was taking two. They upped it to two. I was taking two. I ran out of one, and then I was calling. And then you're just like, I hate it. It's like, I call. I'm like, listen, I need her to call me back because you got to get on a zoom to get it. And then she don't call it. You lose track. So it's been a couple of weeks. So a lot of, a lot of balls bouncing up there. But trying to, yeah, because like, when you're on our meds, I mean, you're a, you're a true psychopath, right? Yeah. And I don't know if that's good or bad. It was great for the show last week. But like, you've lied before too about being on meds. No, I mean, yeah. I'm out. I'm off. I'm out. It's been a couple of weeks. Yeah. Okay. Well, good or bad. Or is that like a content? It's good till someone something really horrific happens. Yeah. And there's a lot of pokers out there. There's a lot of pokers. So who's the number one poker? Dave's guy, Phil. Oh, meek is the number one poker? I have a big meet guy. I know. Yeah. No, he's a poker. He's a poker. Meek threw up before the Met's final game. Oh, that was crazy. Yeah. We're just sitting in the cave. And he was just like, I got to go throw up. Just I don't know where. All right. So who says, is anyone else poking you? Is Jackie been poking you? Oh, that's his job. Yeah. I mean, I don't, you know, it's not, I don't crime like this inherent of the job. Like that's what he's supposed to do. I'm not sitting there going on a poor me, but it is difficult to deal with. Like I had some people from last week being like, you've really gotten soft because I let Jackie get off without saying exactly what he was doing when he was like, Oh, I got offered something like by who? By what? Like what are you talking about? He's very vague. He just shut up and didn't really do it. But he should have had to declare exactly what Boondoggle caused him to leave in the middle of college football NFL and leave his job to go to Germany. Yeah. He has a sugar daddy. It's got a sugar daddy. Oh, I didn't get offered anything. There was just he got he's a sugar daddy. He said you had a great opportunity. No, it was just like they had. Who's that? This guy we know. The opportunity. Oh, Mr. Sugar Daddy. He's got Mr. Opportunity. He's a great name. Who is this guy? He's got a sugar the friend of ours in Chicago. It's not how do you meet him? Just like I'll let the bathroom stall. The friend of a friend. Yeah. And why does he do? What, what, what made this such you? I put my foot in my mouth and I'm an idiot. Oh, he walked over. I know. I'm an idiot. I'm an idiot. I'm an idiot. I'm an idiot. So did this guy pay for everything? He had the whole setup. And no, he's still paid. He's still paid. He had the setup. That up. What did you have to do? Did you have to blow him? I am an idiot. I How much was it? How much? What did you miss speak about? Because I said good opportunity. I was just saying that I was I just said an idiot. I should not have said it. All right. Well, so then speak correctly now. You do. Oh, Rico's loving this by the way. Look at his face. I made a bad. I just got his face out of the corner right. Yeah. So what should you have said? I should have just been like I'm a fucking idiot and shouldn't have gone on this fucking. Oh, what? Explain the trip. Yeah. Explain the whole time under the trip. So when did you see the outfit, Dave? No, I didn't send us the outfits. Oh my god. You dressed up as the. I did. You did the leader, Ozen? I did do the leader. Oh my god. I didn't know that. I want to hear who this guy is. I want to hear who the trip is. The outfit. I want it all. Wait, so when we were so when we're fucking sitting in the cave, 12 hours into a Sunday, you're why you got leader, Ozen's on. I did have leader. You scumbag. Why are you protecting this guy? Well, I like I don't I'm not protecting him. He's just a friend of a friend. Like he just had one of those who goes to Germany with a friend of a friend. No, we went with my friends, like my friends, but I don't know this guy as well. So he's their friends with him closer. So like I went with like my boss. Oh my god. Boss man. Boss man. Pick up the phone. Oh my god. You're such a piece of shit. Look at that picture, Dave. The glasses. What a fucking piece of shit. Thank you, Rico. That's a check. I don't want you to know. I come their game trying to stay in my lane, but you posted it, you dumb shit. I know. I know. I know. I know. I know. So what are you saying? Like, Oh, Rico, you fight. I know. I'm saying I understand. I understand. I understand. There's no part of you. Like, maybe it's not the season like you to take vacations to Germany. I thought that if I only did it for two days, it wouldn't be as bad the weekend. But like the way it was, it was I was, well, it's not going to make any sense. I'm an idiot. Why are you explaining? Did this have any? Like, like, so this in your mind, and I'll find out this is nothing to do with bar stool. I had nothing to do with bar stool. No, 100% swear on my life. Meeting the guy had nothing to do with bars. No, it did not. It's a guy a stoolie. He's never brought up bars to live to me in my life. I swear, sniffed your hair. Did what? You sniffed your hair. What's left of it? What? I'm confused by the sniffing that I'm asking if you sniffed your hair. He's not stiff. My hair. No. Also, that was that was rude, Rico. I know it's going away. So go ahead. Go ahead with what? Give us a timeline. Fluent Sunday, October, when did it come? When did you get the call being like, Hey, October first? We on the long time ago, long time ago. I mean, I have to go back and look. I mean, months, months and we got time. I mean, it would have been in part. It would have been in person at it when we were all hanging out somewhere. Okay. Then they were trying to get me to go to Europe for a week. I was like, I think that's a really. They your friends. Sorry. I just keep saying that my friends were trying to get me to go to Europe for a week, the soda boys. And then I was like, I think that I don't think that would be good during football season. And then I booked it. I literally went for 60 hours. We can. No, it's just, well, yeah, it was Sunday. 60 hours. Well, that's a crazy way to say three days. And it was more than three days. I honestly don't know what FS one would say. If I'm like, well, I know we got a show and we signed this contract. We do this deal. But I think I'm just going to fuck off to October fest and skip one of them. Like, yeah, I 100%. It's stupid decision. I am retired, retired for doing that ever again. Because yeah, you've done it multiple times, right? Yeah. You got to go to October fest. I did. And didn't you travel somewhere else like on an exotic vacation or football season? That was the smack. I did go. I did go. I did have a solid Africa trip. What was that? What was that? Smack Africa? Smack Africa. Jack does do a very good job. He just really bad at planning his vacations. It's home. I'm going anywhere in the summer. I am done. I am done. No one gives a fuck in the summer. True. Yeah. Where you stand on the tank? You're not a vacation chamber. I'm not a vacation chamber. I don't think that the opportunity had anything to do with the parcel. I will. I will have jacks back there. Okay. So it's just an opportunity. But a great opportunity is a great opportunity, which sounds like just his friends wanted him to go to October fest. Yeah. Yeah. And this guy was going to pay for some hair sniffs. Yeah. Okay. That makes sense. I don't know what it is about. Is it? It looks like a good time too. We have like a sugar daddy culture at parstool. It's weird. Jerry had one. Jack has one sugar. Rico has one. I don't have one. Nate Oates. Oh. Riggs has one. Riggs has one. Yeah. What is up with that, Dave? Yeah. They like getting benefits. They're like, you know, in college where they go, then now you can do anything. But they're like under the table benefits. Yeah. To the benefit friends of the program. Okay. Rico, those are your favorite 10 minutes to pick them ever. Close. Yeah. Close. Yeah. That was pretty good for you. Hey, pick them listeners.

All right. Now back to the episode. I got a new show coming out. Oh, yeah. Congratulations. What time's that air? Should be tonight 738. Depended on good time. Yeah. Red skin. Red socks. Yankees. All right. I'll talk to my guy. Yeah. Let's get it. Let's get it. But I like it. It's working. Hey. Hopefully it's good. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's I think it's got some stuff behind it for 2026 already. So we'll see. I've watched the soul. Do you mean? Yeah. No. Yeah. No. It's not. I'd be stunned if that's true. Dave. What do you mean? Okay. That's just like Annika called texting me be like, okay, game time wants a sponsor, fucking me and Nikki's pod, whatever the fuck that is. Like can we get on the network? Well, A, then we get sued for what Nikki says and B, you think they give a fuck if they're on your pod or we're just spreading it around. Who would Rico? You you said someone to me that was I haven't heard before. Right. It was approached to me. It's not me running around. I just have a hard time feeling though. I know how our sales people work that we've sold something for something that's never even aired. Yeah. I think it's something we're building the relationship with a clown. It seems like they like it. So I hope I'm wrong. I don't think I am, but I hope I'm wrong. All right. I think it's a mutual friend of ours. Dave too. Like it's continuing that relationship. What? Now we're talking in code. Repole. No. Hey, our doctor. Oh, it's what's told. I'm just waiting on the paperwork. Okay. So like, yeah, I know how it works, man. Like for all the, you know, like you two, you lower your head and neutral. Yes, you go out and fucking do it. And at the end of the year, you have something to stand on. All right. I love that. And you can stand in like all the Moscow business. The same thing with Hank, fucking like, you know, there's no crying a Hank with different shit. It's like, hey, Hank, I got an idea. Like, you mind jumping on the phone? Five minutes. Like, what's going to help me with my career? There's no bullshit. Same with Dan. Like, we go three months at a time without talking. Like, no, that's not true. We still tax. Well, no, it's not, but it's not negative, Dan. But it's like, you, let's use your time, man. Like it's, I don't like how you weaponize that against me. By the way, I want to just get that on the record. No, I don't want you to. I'm the weapon. I don't, I don't, I leave you alone. So like, I should get credit for leaving you alone. No, it's not. We do tax. It's, it's, it's, it's just not going back into the fucking Manhattan Beach. All right. You're going. You're right. You know what? I don't know. I don't know. And then me hanging up. And it's like, here we go. This is going to set off a bad, bad, you're right. When you hung up that phone, you like, you know, I was me saying, yeah, yeah, you're better fixing. You're better fixing. And for the most part, I've done a good job fixing it. Every day's a battle. I don't know fucking meds, but every day's a battle. But like, it prompts a great opportunity. Like you laugh at your friends here. Like, enjoy it. Do work and get it done. I will say, I will say, uh, I should clarify because it's not as good an opportunity then to go to October fest. But it, Barsal is a good opportunity. Great. Yeah. We go to, uh, you starting this show late in the year. Have anything to do with contract coming up. See, this is, but this is, this is where he can't fucking help himself. And it's got you mother fucking culture. Okay. Let's time out. Since you won't get, since you know, that's nobody asked the loaded fucking question. And you fucking know it. Okay. This is the boss. Both bosses here. Let's lay it out. Okay. Season starts February. Oh, January running through till football. Football. Still the bread and butter in this company, Dave. Would you say? Yes. Okay. And then in March, Jackie boy, while you were at fucking weddings, got doing god knows, fucking what? Dave and Dan without, again, looking for a pat on the back or like, you know, elevating myself. March madness. Some of those storylines, where did I rank in terms of how that was? Hi. Great. Hi. Okay. There we go, Jack. So in April and May, when we, when we conceptualize the idea and sat down three days a week, here's what we're going to do. We're really going to put it to the paper. And then in June, July, August, we start filming this stuff and rolling it out all through my own fucking connections. When it starts day viewing at the end of September, yeah, Jack, that timeline makes sense. You're fucking dick. So yeah. And does it help? Obviously at the end of the year, yes, dick, but it's logistics, which I fucking worked in third party jerk off. You know, boss. This is the fucking thing. This is what they say. They're like, why do you have a temper? Why you an asshole? It's got your mother fucking culture. It's the same fucking thing every mother fucking time. Know what goes on in the inner working. Same thing. Yo, Dave. Oh, you posted, you could post a video by your fool. You were like, buddy, it's four seconds. Like, are they, should we be diving into your fucking day or this and that with Dan? Oh, you did this. You don't know the fucking behind what's going on in the wall, man. Like it's the dead. Somebody's dead. Why was I posted what video what four second that part of a lost I'm saying if if there was a comment or a troll or some Decade to like dive into four seconds of your life be like whatever you like you don't know what's going on, man Right, get out the whole picture. Okay, you shouldn't be counted every fucking second Right culture sucks, and I will say listen I was watching the Yankees red socks last night big ads for neutral all over the bullpen big budget and they're in the Bosco business. I don't know. You're in the Bosco business with my luck the fucking paperwork is going to go through a book. Okay, well see where we're staying positive What you didn't what are you talking about? No, I'm saying it's just finalizing. That's all I don't want to get ahead of myself. Oh, okay, so you didn't answer Jack's question though Yeah, Dan you would you would be a man, please no, no, I asked a question. I'm asking all right. Let me ask you. We had come to a Finality of a discussion and you re-brought it. I did it. I just said it's the question. No, he's yes, which I addressed he's right Dave let me ask you a question as an employee coming to you take me out of the equation someone comes to you every year It's on a one-year deal and at the end of December What's the first usual question or how you kind of approach like hey first of it's difficult like when you have five minutes We saw that play out a couple of weeks ago how it goes but like you might only have 45 seconds in front of this guy Like all right. What do you got you got you got two minutes? What do you got? It's like all right? Well, here's what it did I did what I did I'm in the mix this and that but like here's the new thing that you say go do something yourself Yeah, this is where it is so yes at the end of the year I definitely did Dan want to have something for that and that's been from your advice as well Yes, so you can't do the gotcha thing with that as well I got you culture now y'all on gutcher in here is Jackie tables trying to get the heat off him being an October fest It's just tough. It's tough because like you know, it's the at the end of the day like who do you answer to I answer to these two guys Doing a pretty good job staying the fuck out of the way laughing at things working on it getting things going and then but here it is It's the gotcha culture. It's fucking this it's fucking the beach house bikini boys and this and fucking everybody who's the How's bikini boys? Oh And who is the other bees? What did I say? Oh, there's a bad Bitcoin reply guy. Oh, yeah, I'm getting to I I Need Jerry's guy to get the IP address. I'm down that path Well, let's take a second and tell you about our friends at row.co. This ad is sponsored by row Rowsparks are two-in-one prescription treatment for stronger harder erections They hit the bloodstream faster because they dissolve under your tongue and getting harder faster means having more sex After they dissolve they work in 15 minutes on average Rowsparks can give guys thicker longer erections than you'll usually have because they get fuller Rowsparks give you the boost to last longer.

We're descending down a no meds rabbit. Yeah, but yeah, Dave. I agree. We're teeter, but with this, but I'm try I'm getting as much as I can to work, but let's make it a meds back in the mix is what Dave is saying Well, pick them at the end of the year, too. What's he gonna like you need a good pick on man? I mean, what do you want a BC+4 like what do we want? This is the show you guys have said I've tried to come in you're as much as like you don't got it I've come in here being like offensive play rate and fucking third down conversions you guys right that ain't what it's about No, you've been great this year It picks her at the end. Listen, and I wrestle with it every night because it's like I Where do you find that line in the madness? I think you're right about it I think it may be time maybe if you were doing two pills maybe do the wall Half a pill come back up a little bit. I think where we're starting to get you know, ever play that game Excite bite like the You all the bike overheats and you just break down you're getting into that red area on Excite bite Where it's like you're gonna take it down a couple levels? Just take one personal shit. There's a lot a lot of Yeah, and that's that's a that's a Bosco no-meds trademark the only one in the world with you know a life outside of here So it we're getting there first guy ever have kids. Don't see see you can't say you're doing good You can't say that you can't do that. Well, I'm saying the whole goal. What is my goal every day? Perform it stay out of fucking truck and then and not give you shit of The crying in the fucking figure it out - Exxon some meds just one Maybe we got it maybe we got it. You know what maybe we got it maybe we got to be like a like like like when Stella need you know All the great artists and musicians if they were on meds. They wouldn't be known right they're at their best, right? It's like a beautiful mind, right, but maybe maybe we do like like when I have to give Stella meds because she's getting old like just Just hot in the food. Yeah, just throw one in a little cheese and just be like here Bosco have a little cheese I've taken like the motto has been no setbacks Dave the same thing right hey wake up or still is probably not working with the format We have great which I agree with that like that form like has it works You got too many things to host t-bob runs it. That's why we fucking hired the guy I've always been pro of bringing in new guys. That's always been my motto By the way every time very helpful. He's still sending links. He's been helpful. Yeah, so that is a that has a nice it's a good move I've appreciate it now I connect the contract thing with it, but I appreciate it right and in the boss No, that's no, it's just do like if you gave him more than a one-year deal that you can always He quit Hank he three tried to murder people. He's run people the company guys like that You don't put on multi-year deals. You always need the carrot to keep the dog walking great And you end when you have four or five fuck ups. You don't yeah, you don't get the leash. Yes, I So back to Bosco industries. I do think that maybe debuting it during MOB playoffs isn't a great idea I do like the series though. We talked about it Rico. You set me some videos. I think it's got some legs I'm a big proponent of it. I think it's good. I would avoid Red Sox Yankees tonight as the air date You're not gonna get much. We got to get a hog deal coming in. I probably want you to that appreciate that Yeah, no problem and you have been I will say the the The three month we do text, but yeah, you have not you you you we didn't go back to when you remember when you followed me All the way to my car. Yeah, you don't do that anymore every once you know like listen as much as every once in a while I'll go back to check myself. I'll scroll through like old texts To remind yourself like how bad you were, you know, like you got to look at that. So like so that's what I'm saying like I Like it's not I don't want That's dark. That's dark shit That's a watch game take coaches watch game tape. Yeah, that's some dark shit. Who's cackling like a little girl Hank Yeah, it's it's tough for supporting a cult. It would have been so much more fun Hank if you were quacked out today If you're quacked out, it would have been great. I rode I'm gonna ride or all you had him. Yeah, I had him all right Should we do some picks? That was some good stuff boys. That was good. That was a good triangle offense that we had going and I'll say this About Jackie because I know people are gonna come after him for the opportunity. I told Jackie before Pickham started like he is that he's probably the only guy who can still get that Bosco. So he does serve a nice purpose on this show Well, yeah, I mean listen if I fuck up you two are gonna eviscerate me, but The goal. Yeah, the goal is trying not to part fuck up yourself When it does like when you you know you bring the neighbor in like you do this that whatever like all right Yeah, it's you fight fire, but like the thing that drives me nuts is Bosco has some underlying strange loyalty to him too Like that fact that that hoey in garden Dozen Garden picture wasn't already out there like is crazy because Like their friends, they actually are friends, but Jack the minute doesn't hesitate to run Bosco over with a car back it up But that's also his job in peel out on his face. That's also his job in Pickham world But it's feel the dreams dude. You can't go back moon like Ram when I turn to gotcha culture It's too long for me. It does get right although Jack Mack last night on the stream did say like I am kind of a gotcha culture guy to other people Oh, well, yeah, ignore that no no duh. Yeah, where where do you think you came up with gotcha culture? You look to the mirror Like imagine if the dude popped up right now. I wonder what his thing is with the gotcha culture High school basketball starts in a couple of months Okay, all right. Well, let's get to our our our picks Hey pick them listeners. We're gonna take a quick break for a message from one of our partners It's Fran from chicks in the office. The weather is getting cooler and Abercrombie's fall drop has everything I need for the season The best selling a and F Sloan Taylor pant is a closet staple for me. I'm always wearing it to work events. Happy hour. Anytime I want to be a bit more dressed up. And the viral Dylan dress is easy, one and done perfection. But my fall uniform will always be denim pair with a Henley sweater, a bra free top. It's comfortable, effortless. It just never fails. Find your fall capsule at Abercrombie shop in the app online and in stores. All right. Okay, boys, let's do it. A big noon kickoff. I'm putting this game on here. It shouldn't be on here, but it's big noon kickoff. Wisconsin at Michigan, Michigan's minus 17 and a half over under 43 and a half. This is going to be you guys by 100. It's going to be bad. You'll be there. Point total, Dan. I think it's 12 and a half. I mean, I don't think Wisconsin is going to win another game this year. I really don't. I think it's that bad. So it's time for a full reset. But Dave will be there. Big noon kickoff will be there. I'm not going to be there because we're not. You're going to check in with Dusty Dave. You're going to stop by a practice. No. So I'm going to be there in the hour having a practice like Friday. The debut of Go Go Gray is knock on wood. It's Friday at Keenlin. So yeah, Miss watermelon is entered in the 10th at Keenlin. So there's no way I was missing that like. So I'm flying in after the race. Are you going to get some burgu? Yeah, probably. Although it's supposed to be there on Friday. Oh, that's a little too hot. I fall in love, Keenlin. Yeah, I can't wait. I'm like nervous. Excited. It's been what three years that I since I started Go Go Gray's having a one horse get to the gate. Locking happened between now and Friday. But flying to Keenlin tomorrow morning. Is that going to go? No, okay. Where do you think it stacks in the odds? I don't know. I mean, morning line is eight to one. You never know if people are going to know is my horse. How aware people if they are, the horse will get bet down and be no value probably. But the horse can run. What rights? It's the last the 10th. Okay. The horse can run. I will be tuning in. That's Friday, right? Right. Opening at Keenlin. First day. Yeah. All right. So I'm not going to see. I think Michigan wins by a thousand here. I think Michigan is a team that I have a star on them that they can elevate themselves into upper echelon. I was really impressed with Nebraska. I don't think the score show that who's Nebraska, but they're physical. They're mean. And if the quarterback keeps developing, we could have something. But I think they absolutely smashed Wisconsin here. I'm going to take Wisconsin plus 17 and a half. I have to. I have one question for you though, Dave about this game. Brandon Walker brought up a decent point. Bryce Underwoods looked awesome. The last two games. Biff Poji was the coach. They were running him. I saw this. I was on the horse. Yes. Ron Moore has not run him the same way. Or is there any hesitation on that? No, I think. Ron caught so much heat for the way they called the game in Oklahoma that they changed the whole and took the brakes off. Yeah. All right. Rico Michigan. Okay. Sorry. No, it's fine. I guess I'm on the call too. Yeah. Right. But yeah, but his program is for years, Wisconsin, betting Wisconsin in the big farm man and the fucking it's bad. 1500 yard going back was fun. We've gotten to a point like it's kind of a sad season. All right. Beyond all the history on Wisconsin, like, you know, Wisconsin, like what the fuck's going on there? I remember sitting. I think he's gone just smashing machine. Yeah, just like ran it down your throat. Yeah. It's just the older you get, the more you watch these, like, you used to set your watch to it and you're watching them disappear. I know it's bad. They kind of did the rich rod thing like y'all who y'all what you like totally try transform what you're doing. It sets it back. But the thing that's crazy about Wisconsin too is like, I don't think anyone in the world thought fickle was a bad hire. Yeah. You know, I mean, it was a home run hire. He was the most, you know, he's one of the top three names that was out there. It just hasn't worked out. It sucks. I'm pretty bummed about it. But hopefully they can figure out a way to get it turned around and maybe next year, maybe win a game this year, you know, Billy Edwards might be back, which would be good because that's the other part that they're like fickle has done some bad things and made some bad decisions. He's also had some incredibly bad luck with all three of his quarterbacks getting hurt in the three years. He's been at Wisconsin. What has been the reason Dan to watch like, is it the NIL? You didn't get the players. You went away from the lineman. It's partially NIL. It's partially doing the whole dairy raid thing. It's partially the quarterbacks getting hurt. It's partially the new big 10. It's, it's a lot of things. It's like a perfect storm that's all gone at the wrong way for Wisconsin. And yeah, you got to figure out you got to have like a gut check. Maybe this off season to be like, what the fuck are we going to be? Yeah. Because you worry you can be in a brisket where it's like you're bad for a long time. Yeah. No, you know, no, it sucks. I'm bummed out about it. All right. Vandy at Bama. This is a good game. Bama minus 10 and a half over under 55 and a half. Bama coming off a huge win at Georgia. Vandy didn't cover, but dominated Georgia or Utah State. I'm going to take Vandy in this. I just think it's too many points. I know that this is, and here's why I think Bama will always get up for that Georgia game. And I know they're not going to be looking past Vandy from what happened last year. I don't know if Vandy can win the game like they did last year, but and I'm very impressed with Thai Simpson, but 10 and a half points, Diego Pavia, like give me 10 and a half points with that guy. I'll take Vandy. What is his Heisman odds? Imagine if he wins this game. I don't know. That's let me look it up right now. You never hear his name. I agree. I think it's scary. It's very scary because it might be like Bama's flip the switch. Yeah. I don't know they have because they start look like that in the first half and they kind of struggle in a second. I actually took Thai Simpson to win the Heisman. I took a flyer on him before last week and after the first three series, I'm like, I can cash this ticket. But I like Vandy and I like the over here Diego Pavia 1700 plus 1700. So right now it's Dante more plus 750 Thai Simpson plus 850 Jeremiah Smith, which I wouldn't Jeremiah Smith might be something worth looking at because there's been a lot of quarterbacks that have not really separated. And I do think that Ohio State's going to start smashing the Jeremiah Smith button. So I got mine went from 20 to 8 Thai Simpson. I have I have Jeremiah love the 25 to one. It's still 25 to one. I do think that Notre Dame's going to go to the playoff. All right. What do you have here Rico? I'll take Alabama. I'm going to take Alabama just in a sense of that. I think last week may have shifted the season now and they can really get it rolling. I know there's a lot to worry about with Vandy. Obviously last year at Pavia, but at home I think they take care of business. It's a like where? It's a where Bama flex it game. Like this is where I'm totally off because and I've been saying this for a while. I the Alabama's and the Georgia just aren't who they are anymore. So I think like I had Alabama last week to beat Georgia. But I don't think Georgia's that great Georgia could already have two losses. And Vandy has definitely improved. So I didn't think the SEC and people have been coming out. I think it's a mishmosh of decent team. The SEC is is kind of like the big 12 this year and that there are a lot of really good teams and not one superpower. Not even close to a superpower. Right. Cause like you throw out the teams like Ole Miss, Tax A&M, Tennessee, LSU. I know they struggled at Ole Miss, but like Nuss Meyer. There's there's a lot of teams in the SEC that are like holy shit. This is Mizzou. There's a lot of good teams. The SEC. There's not one team that you're like that team is head and shoulders above everyone else. Listen, I love Oregon. But do we know if anybody is head and shoulders above? Is there a clear kind of Ohio State Oregon Penn State right now or the three best. Yeah, I still think so. Okay. Ohio State definitely is I think head. But again, you never we talk about this. And Ohio State. I mean, Washington may not be very good. They dominated. No. No, no, no. It's like it's still so early. Yeah. All right. Next game. Texas. Texas at Florida, Florida, plus six and a half over under 41 and a half. I love this game, boys. I love this game. I'm taking Texas minus six and a half. This is a this is a lightning bolt game. Dave. This is I was going with Florida all week and I was like archmaning socks. And then I looked into it a little more. Florida is banged up on the defensive line. Florida has not been able to score against elite defenses, which Texas still has. They had a buy week. I think arch is going to do just enough. I think you're going to see a better arch in the game more than just enough. Yeah. But no, I actually don't I don't I don't think he has to do more than just enough. That's what I'm saying. Like I think Florida's I think Florida is going to score in like the 10 to 14 range. So it's not going to be the arch has to light the world on fire. I went into this week being like, I'm going to take Florida no matter what. And then I started looking at it more. It's like, why would you think that because I think a lot of people are thinking that like arch first SEC game since week one, you know, he's played nobody. He looks like shit. I'm going to take Texas minus six and a half. Well, I ate the cheese and I've taken I've eaten the cheese about three or four weeks. I keep taking Florida and they keep not covering. And I keep waiting for these lines to be bigger and they're just not this time they're at home. I'm taking Florida. Okay. I heard everything. So I just at some point they're in these games. the break or two is going to go their way and they may win it. So I'm going to take Florida. Okay. Rico, I don't want to root for Florida to Dave's point. I've watched this play out. Like I will take Texas. Florida probably smarter number based on everything you're saying at home, they will get the break that will be the, you know, the swing play, the changes things. But with that said, like I don't want to root for Florida. Don't like watching them. I'll take Texas. Okay. Next up, we got Texas Tech at Houston. Interesting game. Houston looked like fucking piss last week. So I was thinking about it. Look ahead. I think that might have been the class of look ahead. I think I think Houston is live in this game. I know Texas Tech is really fucking good. I like Willie Fritz as a coach a lot. I think they're going to be in this game. I'm going to take a half and a half and it was moving dead started. I think 11 and a half 12. I like Houston as well. Dave and Hank, you don't get to say it. I hate the game. I hate the game. I'm going to take Houston, but I hate the game. Okay. Uh, last up Miami at Florida State. This is a great game. Taken a little lost her out of it because Florida State lost her Virginia. Florida States plus four and a half over under 53 and a half. I'm going to take the over in this game. I'm a little nervous. If I had to, if I had to go side, I'd probably lean Florida state. I do think Miami's really fucking good, but like this is one of those like gut check games for Florida State after again, maybe looking ahead. What do you got Dave? I have a big question, Mark. I don't know what I think Miami could be really good. But maybe I don't know. I have a hard time reading them still. I'm going to take Florida State. I put a championship bet on them, which obviously blew up real quick right before they played Virginia, because I thought they'd be Virginia, then beat Miami. I have far less confidence now, but I'll stick with them at home. Plus the points classic rivalry game. Okay. Uh, let me see what Danny Boyce comes down to quarterbacks for me. Carson Beck in one score game 64% completion percentage. Average is 261 yards has a 12 TD to 5 INT ratio. He's five and two in those games. Cast the honest is five and six with a 36% completion percentage averaging 131 pass yards, 18 TDs, 11 INTs. In a one score game, I will take Carson Beck. But you don't want this to be a one score game. Like the lines more than a half. You don't want this to be a one score game. That's what myself in a corner. Yeah. Like, you know what I mean? You're right. But if someone's okay, yes, that's a we had a good run till now. Great way to keep it in check, Dan. Got to call you guys out. I like that. I like the stats. But like if you are taking minus four and a half on the road, you're hoping that it's not a one score game. Yeah, great. And Castelman House was pretty electric down the stretch last week. I will say I noticed when you called him out on that day, where is those? What are those gifts where the guy has the mask like smiling, but behind it, you know, he's like freaking out that kind of seem that kind of seemed like Bosco's face when you called him on it. Yeah, it's not a light call out. It's not a it's a good. It's if it's if it is a one, we're not being attacked, Rico. No, no, no, I didn't. I didn't freak out. Like you left about it. Again, that's what you're supposed to do. Yeah, if it is a one score game, Carson Beck will be the better quarterback. But if you're betting minus four and a half on the road, you are hoping that it is not a one score game because that will be very good. You could eat it out. Yeah, you could. Yeah, I also love Miami's. Yeah, I mean, Miami's defense. I think Christopher's got to go get it. So like, what does that mean? He's got to go get it. He's, you know, he's been was Christopher's gonna go get it, mean, he's been on the ledge of elevating to the mask. Here's the mask. It would be nice if Miami gets over the hump and gets to the party. These are the games you win to go get the conference. Get to the playoff party. Okay. So Christopher's got to go get it. There was a, let me break this down. Uh, this game now. Christopher's gonna go get it. I did. Uh, yeah. And Miami's, uh, Miami's defensive coordinators and Oxford guy. So Oxford mess. Shout out, Oxford mess. Okay. Uh, all right. Let's do our cards. Dave, you got your Oxford man. Is that what you're talking about? Is that a talent? What? Why are you shouting on Oxford mess? Yeah. Party of mine. I played with the college was from off. Catching up this weekend, he's like, that's what happens. It's just random synapses when you're not on the meds. Things are just like a galaxy of just weird shooting stars going on in your head. Hey, pick them, listeners. Bill Lucky, you should be meet the new lucky one sweet tea from Miss Peaches.

Pick up a lucky one sweet tea today and give back one can at a time. All right, now back to the episode. All right, Michigan minus 16 and a half against 17 and a half right now. 17 and a half. I'm stealing that extra point. I mean, it's I'm looking at the lines right now. What do you want me to say? Penn state. I have 25 and a half against UCLA. I have that as well. I think they come back and absolutely smash this team. You know, by the way, UCLA has not led for a second. Second. It's crazy. That's insane. Maryland plus six and a half at home against Washington. They're undefeated Maryland. So and Washington's coming off that tough loss. USF minus 27 and a half against Charlotte. BYU minus 19 and a half at home against West Virginia. Vandy plus 10 and a half and over 56 and a half against Bama. I took Florida. We already talked about tech plus six and a half against Texas. I'm Michigan state plus 11 and a half at Nebraska. I don't mean Nebraska should be fucking double digit favorites for anybody. Florida state plus four and a half against Miami at home. I like the fight and brand walkers 14 and a half tough loss last week, but I think they're pretty good. Can I say something? Uh oh, what? Reveley died. So that that's good. Bad. I say an M. Oh, I thought Reveley was a mistake. Yeah. No, that's a bully, I think. It's it was a retired revelry. So it's not the revelry that's. So I think it was the retired revelry died. The current revelry is still there. But all revelry died. I just want to throw that out. If it's current, that would affect it. Okay. Okay. That's my card. Okay. Rico BYU minus the 19 and a half Illinois Purdue over 56 and a half. Army UAB over 57 and a half. Navy had 295 yards on the ground against UAB in the rain. UAB is 128 first to run. 128 points per game. Uh UAB is offense is also 44th in yards per game and Army's QB health is getting a little bit better, but their defense allows 100 points per game. That's going to be a score fest. That UAB game with Navy didn't go over though, right? Navy. I want to add it. I laid it with Navy. I'm going to be honest and I don't remember the total. I know Navy covered. All right. I just I think I. But it was in this. It was in the six. It was in the 60s. It was I think 42 to 20 or 38 23. Can we double check it? I'm looking it up right now. Hold on. What fucking? What are they? What are they? The conference USA? No. What the fuck is Navy now? I think you're playing UAB's playing Army. And what are you looking for? He's looking for me. He's talking about I had American. I think the um I had that game. Yeah. No, it did. It went over 38 24. All right. Yeah. It did. It did. I'm going to add that to my card as well. 56 and a half. Yeah. I just for some reason I thought I lost it because they only scored 14 points a second half. Yeah. Yeah. I thought for some reason I lost that. Okay. Keep going. I just got to ag that got your culture thing. Um what? Nothing. I got a notification. It's not good. Uh what? What was the notification? Uh nothing. What? What's it got? I saw something that this will be another soon failed Rico idea. So no, is that just a random person? Yes. So how do you get that? Well, it's via like your tag. And you get I got tagged. Yeah. But it's a but why are you having random people's tags like policy or another show. Yeah. Yeah. It's via another show going on right now. So it's sorry. Um you mean somebody on our entag you. Yeah. It's like one of our accounts. No. It's yeah. Like a quote account for another show of ours. Yeah. Was it Neely Boy? No. Um sorry. Who said that? Who said that? Kirk. Uh that's tough. Yeah. It's tough. It's tough when but you just got to think now Kirk. Kirk will try to kill everybody. You just it's not a personal thing about him. His his job is to tear everybody down. Not really. But that's how he views it. Like he tears me down more than anybody. Right. Like he so you just got to let that go. He's not doing that personal. He's a miserable guy who wants to tear everybody down. just keep moving the ball down the field, Bob. He doesn't want you to win. Keep moving the ball down the field. He wants everybody to lose, including him. Wake, he's in his, he didn't like that. This is just derailed the whole thing. You should turn off the minahan comments because now we're talking about it. It's just going to intensify. Wake plus seven, I can't quit this team. I'll take the over in Oklahoma, Kent State 53 and a half. I know Matthias out. I do just think this Kent State team gift, gift of, like they can't stop anybody. I also think they got a little fight to go get us like the 14, even against Oklahoma. They do non-stop. Gold is going to be a ton of possessions. I agree with you Michigan State plus 11 and a half. If you look at rule, his double digit wins in big 10 play Purdue 2023 and 2024, Illinois in 2023, Wisconsin in 2024, not really like knocking you off the page in terms of phenomenal teams. Now is Michigan State a little bit overrated at three and one or whatever they are, maybe, but I'll take Michigan State plus the 11 and a half. The state is probably the worst of the teams that you listed there, but go ahead. Good stats. We'll see. Love Texas State minus the 13 and a half Arkansas State. Texas State is off of a buy Arkansas state. Arkansas State D is awful Texas State will outscore him. Arkansas State is the team that you, you went against with Iowa State. Are you chasing that? Maybe. A little bit. I don't even know. That's okay. We all do it. We all try to try to get our revenge somewhere down. Yeah. We used in block games every week. You used in plus the 10 and a half Memphis Tulsa over 57 and a half. Okay. I know I'll do my card first. I'm going to take since he minus one and a half Memphis minus 20 and a half. I'm riding with Rico, UAB Navy over 50. Ersk is 57 and a half, 57 and a half. Penn State minus 25 and a half. I agree with Dave. I think they're just going to this is going to be James Franklin flexing. Nebraska Michigan State. I'm taking the over 58 and a half. I don't think Michigan State defense. They're lost on defense. BYU minus 19 and a half. I'll start with my mortal going back to the well. It's treating me well. So mortals Bob Diaco. I'm 5 and 0. Zoopies 4 and 1. Gebo's 4 and 1, Hank's 3 and 2, Rico's 3 and 2, Jack is 2, 2 and 1 and Dave is 2 and 3. I'm going to go Boise Notre Dame over 62 and a half. I think Boise is going to play loose. They have this like running back by committee now that kind of works. Notre Dame's CJ car is the real deal. Jeremiah loves the real deal. Price is the real deal. They got guys everywhere on offense. Their defense are still trying to figure it out. So I'm going to take over 62 and a half Notre Dame Boise. Hank. My card that Notre Dame over also add the Houston plus what if it's 10 and a half. 10 and a half. Yeah. I'm taking Miami minus 4 and a half. We have that Carson Beck. Highsman ticket. This this would be a game they need to to ball up and Chris Walls got to get it. Yeah. Yeah. He's got to get it. He's got to get it. Soopie. I like Penn State. Okay. My 25 and a half gross. I'm going to take Michigan and Ebo is taking Houston Texas Tech under 50 and a half. Okay. Houston. 150 and a half. I actually kind of like that play. Add that to my card. Rico. Georgia Bulldogs minus 20 and a half. Is this a list game? No. No, it's still. It's my Kentucky Kentucky. Kentucky's been pesky. They won by an average of 16 points a game. I believe with Kirby smart, but I think Kentucky's down. Georgia's got to get back confidence booster at home. Think they roll. Georgia just keeps it going. Georgia minus the 20 and a half. They don't shout out Whitney. They're not keeping it going. Keeps the season going. Can't have two losses in a row. They lose two in a row. It really derails the season. Yeah. Yeah. Guys keep me in check. I respect it. Yeah. I misunderstood. The way it keeps going. Well, they lost last week. So I got confused. But keeps their season alive. Maybe it was a better way to sit. Say it. Yeah. Okay. Dave Michigan. I think they just they win this game by 30 plus. Okay. Michigan minus 17 and a half. Yeah. Can we also do the underdog money line parlay? They've been crushed. Well, it didn't work. I know, but it's been doing really, really well. Okay. Yes. Why are you deterred, Dan? Because when I give picks out, I have to bet them and I don't I I'm going to lose this one. Is that a fair answer? It's fair. So you make me say a pick out loud. I then go bet it and then I lose it. It's fair. So not my favorite, but it's fine. We're going to do it. I'm going to find one. I'm going to try not. I know you guys like Miami. I like it. Florida. I'll give mine as Maryland plus six and a half at home against Washington. Okay. By the way, I had clubs in North Carolina over 46 and a half. What a bummer of a game that is. We're 46 and a half. Okay. Well, this one would be money line, Dave. You want Maryland money line plus 200? Yeah. Yeah. Also at Arizona minus 20 and a half on my card, Oklahoma States dead. And I thought they'd get a bounce back from the coach. They actually hung a tough for a half against Baylor. All right. I'm trying to find one. What do you got, Rico? Houston, this will be a big one, then Houston. Fuck. Kinda like Wyoming at home, that's a dog shit game. What's it out right now? Houston and what was it, Maryland? I'll do. I'll do. I'll do Florida State. Florida State money line. All right. I like that. Houston, Maryland. Florida State. Big one. That's going to be a big, big, massive one, massive one. Yeah. 35, 43, 35, 33 to one. Okay. By the way, just to talk, well, you guys are probably deep asleep. I was fighting for my life last night. I had. Yeah. I blogged it. That's unbelievable. That fucking alley. Oh, in the W. Yeah. I had, I had close to $4 million, potentially if the fever won the championship. Now I had it 39-1 because I had what Florida, I had everything. They, they had no business making this far. Their team was decimated. Kelsey Mitchell gets hurt. What round are they in? They're out. They lost. They lost. It lost an overtime last night to get to the finals. Oh, fuck. That would have been an incredible head spot. I know. Damn. I'm sorry, Dave. And, and, and it, in overtime, Alia Boston filed out and with 26 seconds left in regulation. Kelsey Mitchell hurt. Caitlin Clark hurt. Sophie cutting him hurt. It, the fact that even got that close is crazy. But it, I caught a, could probably at that point guaranteed half a million to a million heads. Jesus sucked. Dan, I just sent the layup if you could see it. That's the play at the end. Okay. Hold on. Let me see. Brutal. 30. 930. TV 3 last night. Okay. Hold on. Watch it. Watching. Oh. That was to win. No. I don't know what he's talking about. The cup. The back door cover. The back door cover. I was like, I didn't even know what the fuck you were talking about. I just, they need to eat him to win. I know he needed him to win. I know. And he got his heart ripped out also. But anybody who bet it, that's also a bad beat. What the fuck's betting that like that at the end? That was. Okay. Sinapse. Sinapse. You understand? I had my knees. Yes. Yes. Yes. You take precedent. Yes. There's also a bad beat. That wasn't even that bad of a beat if we've been honest. All right. I'm going to get better for the next one. Let me. Great show. Hold on. Hold on. I mean, that wasn't that bad of a beat. That would have been like a pretty nice fucking play. It actually would have been a bad beat for Vegas. Now it's a bad beat. It's over time. So obviously you shouldn't have spread spread was seven and a half. But I'm talking about I had, I had him straight to win a million. I had him with Florida Gators who won the national championship. That was a parlay put in that was 25 grand and win 1.3 million. I have him with the red socks to win the American. I have him a million different fucking ways. That's what I was talking about. It wasn't even a bad beat. No. I mean, it was a bad beat because it went to overtime and you're plus seven and a half. But I can't even believe they got to overtime because their entire team died. Yeah. Is that a tick when you're doing that? That means like, uh, maybe yeah. I don't know. All right. Good show. Good show. Have a great weekend. All right. Yeah. Good luck Miss watermelon. Yes. All right. See you. All right.
