1 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,600 You're listening to the Back Home Network presented by Home 2 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:20,880 Field Apparel. Welcome back to Crimson Cask, El 3 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,760 Clavio joining me here. It is Crimson Cash Time. 4 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,880 Yes, I'm hosting Crimson Cash, Scott. 5 00:00:27,370 --> 00:00:32,850 Still in the Galapagos and I'm on vacation here this week so I 6 00:00:32,850 --> 00:00:36,770 get the pleasure of for the first time in a while Co hosting 7 00:00:36,850 --> 00:00:40,930 with James Turner. As we talk through the betting 8 00:00:40,930 --> 00:00:43,850 wines from last week from this week, we talked about what we're 9 00:00:43,850 --> 00:00:48,690 expecting out of the IU game and much more beyond that. 10 00:00:48,690 --> 00:00:50,210 James, good to see you as always. 11 00:00:50,210 --> 00:00:52,330 How you doing? Always a pleasure. 12 00:00:52,330 --> 00:00:55,830 Galen, happy to have you on. Yeah, I don't know what Scott's 13 00:00:55,830 --> 00:00:57,590 doing down there. I think there's some sort of 14 00:00:57,710 --> 00:00:59,590 scientific research study or something. 15 00:00:59,790 --> 00:01:02,670 I think it might be like, if you remember the movie The Freshman, 16 00:01:02,710 --> 00:01:05,590 where you know they're smuggling lizards into New Jersey. 17 00:01:05,910 --> 00:01:08,550 I think that Scott's doing something like that with 18 00:01:08,550 --> 00:01:11,030 Galapagos turtles. But I'm not totally sure. 19 00:01:11,030 --> 00:01:14,030 Like, I don't want to cast aspersions or doubts on what he 20 00:01:14,030 --> 00:01:16,390 might actually be doing. But I think it involves some 21 00:01:16,390 --> 00:01:20,790 kind of illicit transportation of of of of endangered species. 22 00:01:20,790 --> 00:01:23,600 It's it's interesting. That does sound like a lot of 23 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:24,360 fun. Yeah. 24 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,840 That makes him Matthew Broderick, though, so I don't 25 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,720 know. It does. 26 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,440 That's true. Who does that make? 27 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,720 Penelope and Miller, then? I'm curious. 28 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,240 His wife. Perhaps, yeah, that's a great 29 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,120 point actually. Then you can be Brando. 30 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:39,960 Great.

All right. 53 00:02:46,550 --> 00:02:52,190 James, last week you gave the audience some advice on what 54 00:02:52,190 --> 00:02:54,710 they should be doing gambling wise. 55 00:02:54,710 --> 00:02:57,430 We're going to stay off your NFL bets 'cause I know that those 56 00:02:57,430 --> 00:03:02,710 were not good, but let's talk about the the IU Michigan 57 00:03:03,070 --> 00:03:04,910 numbers. What did you have there? 58 00:03:05,110 --> 00:03:07,710 How did that go and what else did you want to talk about from 59 00:03:07,710 --> 00:03:10,280 last week? We had Michigan covering. 60 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,720 Obviously, way to go out on a limb, that's great. 61 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,400 Kind of a no brainer there. Our big bet of the week was Ohio 62 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,720 State to cover that 19 1/2 at Purdue and that covered with 63 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,160 ease and there was never really any doubt in that game, did you? 64 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,720 Did you? Did you count the 40 yard field 65 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,120 goal that the non football playing student hit in Purdue's 66 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,640 favor for that line? No, we did not. 67 00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:39,750 OK, so you know if you take that they still cover even and 68 00:03:39,750 --> 00:03:46,150 Rutgers to get a money line victory for one of our parlay 69 00:03:46,150 --> 00:03:50,950 bets but they weren't able to cover and we missed our teaser 70 00:03:50,950 --> 00:03:54,150 parlay for the week. So we're hoping to get back at 71 00:03:54,150 --> 00:03:56,230 it this. We've got two teaser parlays 72 00:03:56,510 --> 00:03:57,590 that coming at you at the end of. 73 00:03:57,590 --> 00:03:59,390 The show so awesome. Pick around. 74 00:03:59,390 --> 00:04:02,030 It should be good. Let's start off this week. 75 00:04:02,030 --> 00:04:06,820 Then we've got Rutgers, Indiana. This has been a a line that's 76 00:04:06,820 --> 00:04:11,020 moved quite a bit since it first launched As Rutgers, I think 77 00:04:11,020 --> 00:04:15,180 started off, it was either at 2, 1/2 or three and it's moved all 78 00:04:15,180 --> 00:04:19,380 the way to five. What are you seeing in this game 79 00:04:19,380 --> 00:04:21,420 in terms of where the numbers currently are at? 80 00:04:21,420 --> 00:04:24,500 What do you like the most? That 2 1/2 three? 81 00:04:24,500 --> 00:04:27,940 I'm suspect that ever actually existed because I couldn't get 82 00:04:27,940 --> 00:04:29,660 it. I had an alert that the second 83 00:04:29,820 --> 00:04:33,640 this line dropped to get a notification and I did and I got 84 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,240 it at four points when it came out. 85 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,160 Now going to five, four is a great #5's a great number. 86 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,960 Either of them are fine. I think you're going to cover 87 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:47,760 with ease here with Rutgers. I this is a perfect opportunity 88 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,720 for IU. Like if I if I did not watch IU 89 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,200 football as I'm guessing most people in the country do not, I 90 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,560 would see it as I go oh a home dog getting over a field goal. 91 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,680 I'm that looks tasty. I think I'm going to jump on 92 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,540 that. Unfortunately I have been 93 00:05:04,540 --> 00:05:08,380 watching every snap of IU football this year and I think 94 00:05:08,380 --> 00:05:11,540 we're about to see them fold like a House of Cards here. 95 00:05:11,580 --> 00:05:15,900 I I I I think I saw them teetering in that second-half 96 00:05:15,900 --> 00:05:19,700 against Michigan and some of the post game comments don't sound 97 00:05:19,700 --> 00:05:21,500 like the troops are ready to rally. 98 00:05:22,580 --> 00:05:26,860 So I unfortunately see Rutgers really taking it to him. 99 00:05:27,470 --> 00:05:30,550 It's interesting because S&P plus the prediction on that 100 00:05:30,550 --> 00:05:35,590 right now is Rutgers by 9:00. So it it does feel even you know 101 00:05:36,030 --> 00:05:40,270 now what I'm seeing now is plus 5 1/2 on some of the sports 102 00:05:40,270 --> 00:05:43,110 books. Pro Football Focus has that as 103 00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:45,990 as what they're seeing. The one interesting thing here 104 00:05:45,990 --> 00:05:49,070 that I I'm curious your thoughts of the over under on this game 105 00:05:49,070 --> 00:05:54,470 is 39 1/2 right now over Unders. I've I've really tried to stay 106 00:05:54,470 --> 00:05:56,870 away from with IU so far this season. 107 00:05:57,280 --> 00:06:00,200 In large part because I just don't think you can count on 108 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,080 them scoring now. Right now. 109 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,240 I I guess it depends on the books you're looking at. 110 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,720 As I look at some of these others, I've seen it at 40, it 111 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,200 opened at 42, 1/2, so it's in that 39 and a half 40 range 112 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,600 right now. What are your feelings on that? 113 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,240 Is that one you would just stay away from? 114 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,880 Or do you have a feeling one way or the other, if I had to pick 115 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:27,780 go under 40 1/2, I'm going to stay away from it? 116 00:06:28,740 --> 00:06:30,500 I agree with you. I don't think IU can do their 117 00:06:30,500 --> 00:06:34,420 part, but there's a chance Rutgers could do their part and 118 00:06:35,420 --> 00:06:36,860 and that worries me a little bit. 119 00:06:36,980 --> 00:06:39,700 I mean, Rutgers put up 21 points in eight minutes last week 120 00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:44,460 against Michigan State. When was the last game IU put up 121 00:06:44,460 --> 00:06:46,940 21 points? Was that the Akron game? 122 00:06:47,470 --> 00:06:52,310 So you know, that concerns me. So I'm I stay away from the IU 123 00:06:52,310 --> 00:06:54,710 over unders. I got bit on that early in the 124 00:06:54,710 --> 00:06:57,950 year against Louisville and I'm just staying away from them. 125 00:06:58,390 --> 00:07:01,950 I think it's it's wise on on your part with that and I I 126 00:07:01,950 --> 00:07:03,670 think you've got easy money on the spread here. 127 00:07:03,670 --> 00:07:06,950 Why fuck around with the total? And actually, the the last time 128 00:07:06,950 --> 00:07:10,790 Indiana scored 21 points or more in a Big 10 game was that 129 00:07:10,790 --> 00:07:12,990 Michigan State game last November. 130 00:07:12,990 --> 00:07:15,510 So it's been a little while since Indiana. 131 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,160 Same game as well, right? Yeah. 132 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,000 Well, yeah, exactly. So anything else from this game 133 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,600 or do you want to move on to the rest of the Big 10 slate? 134 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,880 Yeah. I think if IU is hanging around 135 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:38,640 I in at a money line decent odds might want to put some extra on 136 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:44,040 there because IU is not a second-half team and and I think 137 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,740 when you see, I think what you'll see is halfway through 138 00:07:46,740 --> 00:07:49,180 the second quarter you'll start to see the coaching make a 139 00:07:49,180 --> 00:07:51,660 difference. Shawna will have things figured 140 00:07:51,660 --> 00:07:56,060 out. And the College of Coaches Tom 141 00:07:56,060 --> 00:08:00,700 Allen his assemble. Yeah, it's it's interesting 142 00:08:00,700 --> 00:08:03,820 because I mean if you remember last year Rutgers went down 14 143 00:08:03,820 --> 00:08:07,740 nothing to this Indiana team and then came back and won that game 144 00:08:07,740 --> 00:08:08,820 and I think covered pretty handy. 145 00:08:08,820 --> 00:08:11,180 I don't remember exactly what the spread was in that one, but 146 00:08:11,180 --> 00:08:14,480 it was it was a game that. Indiana had a lead in and then, 147 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:19,520 you know, not only couldn't hold it, but also ended up losing the 148 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,880 spread as well. So yeah, it's going to be 149 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,320 interesting to watch as all that comes across. 150 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,440 All right, let's leave the Indiana, Rutgers game. 151 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,840 What else we got on the slate? Let's start off with the big one 152 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,559 that everybody's been focusing on, Penn State, Ohio State. 153 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,840 This has not been a great series for Penn State under James 154 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,909 Franklin. Right now, the line that I'm 155 00:08:39,909 --> 00:08:43,750 seeing is Ohio State -4 1/2. What are you seeing out of this 156 00:08:43,750 --> 00:08:48,950 game? This line has gone towards Ohio 157 00:08:48,950 --> 00:08:50,750 State. Penn State was getting more 158 00:08:50,750 --> 00:08:55,470 points earlier in the week. I like Penn State plus 4 1/2. 159 00:08:55,630 --> 00:08:58,430 I wouldn't bet it any lower than three, although there is a 160 00:08:58,430 --> 00:08:59,910 chance they get outright win this game. 161 00:09:00,070 --> 00:09:04,790 But I think the angle here is on the over under 45. 1/2 is where 162 00:09:04,790 --> 00:09:06,630 that's set at. I definitely think this goes 163 00:09:06,670 --> 00:09:11,050 over that Penn State is putting up points in bunches. 164 00:09:11,050 --> 00:09:12,970 I mean, they put up 63 points last week. 165 00:09:13,690 --> 00:09:15,370 They're definitely going to be able to score. 166 00:09:15,610 --> 00:09:18,530 Ohio State we know can score. I like the over here. 167 00:09:18,810 --> 00:09:21,490 Yeah, it's interesting because it's dropped like 3 1/2 points 168 00:09:22,090 --> 00:09:26,090 since it went up and it was closer to 50 at the beginning of 169 00:09:26,090 --> 00:09:27,170 things. So yeah, it's a, it's an 170 00:09:27,170 --> 00:09:28,770 interesting line. And I think that, you know, a 171 00:09:28,770 --> 00:09:32,210 lot of this is really dependent on what Ohio State's going to be 172 00:09:32,210 --> 00:09:34,730 able to do from a defensive perspective. 173 00:09:35,290 --> 00:09:37,050 Weather looks fine though on Saturday. 174 00:09:37,050 --> 00:09:39,410 I mean a slight chance of rain, but the wind isn't too bad. 175 00:09:39,410 --> 00:09:42,690 It's going to be 57 degrees in Columbus, so that won't play 176 00:09:42,690 --> 00:09:44,210 that much of an impact on things. 177 00:09:46,330 --> 00:09:49,010 Next game. Out of the slate we've got 178 00:09:49,010 --> 00:09:54,250 Northwestern and Nebraska. Northwestern has been really bad 179 00:09:54,250 --> 00:09:57,850 this year, but they are still three and three on the season. 180 00:09:57,850 --> 00:10:00,890 Nebraska is kind of in this weird mode right now where I'm 181 00:10:00,890 --> 00:10:02,930 not sure what to expect out of them, but they are pretty big 182 00:10:02,930 --> 00:10:05,390 favorite in this game, 12 points. 183 00:10:05,390 --> 00:10:09,150 It's too much. Northwestern not a great 184 00:10:09,150 --> 00:10:10,710 football team, but they're scrappy. 185 00:10:11,310 --> 00:10:15,710 They beat Nebraska last year outright when as 12 1/2 point 186 00:10:15,710 --> 00:10:19,350 dogs. So that's just too many points 187 00:10:19,350 --> 00:10:22,630 for a Nebraska team that doesn't really wow you. 188 00:10:22,750 --> 00:10:25,110 I'm going to stay away from it, but if I was going to bet this, 189 00:10:25,110 --> 00:10:27,910 I'd take those points. Another interesting over under 190 00:10:27,910 --> 00:10:30,870 this is another one that started it started at 44. 191 00:10:30,870 --> 00:10:35,140 It's dropped to 40 1/2, but most books, yeah, that's even down 192 00:10:35,140 --> 00:10:37,220 from where it was this morning, so yeah. 193 00:10:37,340 --> 00:10:39,380 Yeah. All right, so we're staying away 194 00:10:39,380 --> 00:10:41,500 from Northwestern Nebraska. Next one. 195 00:10:42,060 --> 00:10:44,660 This has been a topic that people been talking about on 196 00:10:44,660 --> 00:10:47,820 social media all week. Minnesota versus Iowa. 197 00:10:48,300 --> 00:10:50,100 Oh yeah. Oh, James got excited on this 198 00:10:50,100 --> 00:10:52,460 one. This over under is at 31. 199 00:10:52,460 --> 00:10:55,380 Iowa's a 3 1/2 point favorite right now in this game. 200 00:10:55,380 --> 00:10:57,780 They've actually lost a couple of points off of that line. 201 00:10:57,780 --> 00:11:03,350 What do you see in here? If we kick off at 31, we will 202 00:11:03,350 --> 00:11:07,470 have the lowest over under total line in the history of college 203 00:11:07,470 --> 00:11:08,830 football. That's outstanding. 204 00:11:09,190 --> 00:11:11,070 The the previous two, We're Iowa. 205 00:11:12,070 --> 00:11:16,030 We're both Iowa games obviously, but they both also went under 206 00:11:16,030 --> 00:11:18,870 the total. All right now hear me out. 207 00:11:19,110 --> 00:11:22,110 I'm not allowed to bet over unders when Scott is the host, 208 00:11:22,230 --> 00:11:27,370 but Scott is not here this week. So we get to take over 31 points 209 00:11:27,410 --> 00:11:28,330 Iowa. Minnesota. 210 00:11:28,370 --> 00:11:30,930 Wow. That see I'm I was curious where 211 00:11:30,930 --> 00:11:33,490 you're going to go with this. What what I find interesting is 212 00:11:33,490 --> 00:11:37,610 those previous two over unders, it being Iowa games and and and 213 00:11:38,810 --> 00:11:42,490 there they this game is fascinating because Minnesota 214 00:11:42,490 --> 00:11:46,420 has been really. Rickety in a lot of what they've 215 00:11:46,420 --> 00:11:49,500 done so far this season so I would not be shocked if this 216 00:11:49,500 --> 00:11:53,220 went under actually, because Iowa's just not going to need to 217 00:11:53,220 --> 00:11:56,140 score in this game. But yes, you have my permission 218 00:11:56,140 --> 00:11:59,260 to bet the over unders. I I will take the leash off of 219 00:11:59,260 --> 00:12:04,820 you this week for this one. Well, Iowa may not need to 220 00:12:04,820 --> 00:12:06,420 score. They may just look into scoring. 221 00:12:06,660 --> 00:12:10,500 This Minnesota defense is really bad, so I think they're going to 222 00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:13,540 look into some offensive scores, which they don't normally get. 223 00:12:14,020 --> 00:12:16,660 And I guarantee they're going to get a pick six off of this 224 00:12:16,780 --> 00:12:19,460 Minnesota quarterback. If you want to bet a prop bet, 225 00:12:19,460 --> 00:12:22,500 have fun with that Iowa interception return for a 226 00:12:22,500 --> 00:12:23,500 touchdown. Find that. 227 00:12:24,420 --> 00:12:27,060 All right, the other 330? Kick in the Big 10. 228 00:12:27,060 --> 00:12:31,060 We've got a really intriguing game now based upon what 229 00:12:31,060 --> 00:12:33,860 happened last week, Wisconsin at Illinois. 230 00:12:34,420 --> 00:12:37,300 Wisconsin quarterback Tanner Mordecai broke his hand. 231 00:12:37,300 --> 00:12:39,460 He's out. Illinois, who was kind of left 232 00:12:39,460 --> 00:12:43,180 for dead, waltzes into state or not State, College, College Park 233 00:12:43,380 --> 00:12:47,060 and beats Maryland by a field goal as time expires. 234 00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:51,780 Wisconsin opened at 3 1/2. They're down to 2 1/2 Illinois 235 00:12:51,780 --> 00:12:54,980 looking a little frisky but one and six against the spreads so 236 00:12:54,980 --> 00:12:56,740 far this season. What are your thoughts? 237 00:12:59,020 --> 00:13:01,500 We're taking a dog. We're taking Illinois to win on 238 00:13:01,500 --> 00:13:05,470 the money line here. Give me the home team against a 239 00:13:06,870 --> 00:13:09,790 a new quarterback. They're well coached. 240 00:13:10,550 --> 00:13:12,750 They do nothing flashy on offense. 241 00:13:12,750 --> 00:13:15,630 I mean they if they are the least flashy offense you'll ever 242 00:13:15,630 --> 00:13:18,830 see, but they don't turn the ball over and their defense is 243 00:13:18,830 --> 00:13:21,310 fairly solid. I think Wisconsin will 244 00:13:21,310 --> 00:13:24,390 eventually get things rolling, but that's bad news for them 245 00:13:25,110 --> 00:13:27,870 losing Mordecai. So give me the Illini to win 246 00:13:27,870 --> 00:13:30,430 outright. I also like the under 42 here. 247 00:13:31,430 --> 00:13:35,560 I kind of feel. Regretful that I didn't grab, 248 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,200 you know, Illinois plus 3 1/2 when this first came out. 249 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,960 I just wasn't paying attention. The money line is still a pretty 250 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:43,200 decent value you're going to get. 251 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,920 I think plus one O 8 is what I'm saying on the money line right 252 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,440 now for Illinois. So you're going to get a little 253 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,080 bit of positive money on that one. 254 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,080 But I like that pick. I think that's a good pick. 255 00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,880 And I think it's going to be interesting because again, this 256 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,720 is, you know, it's Bilima versus his old team and it's a 257 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,240 Wisconsin team that's having a little bit of an identity crisis 258 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,760 right now. So, well, you know, I told you 259 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:08,240 earlier, I love home dogs. Even even when the home field 260 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:12,240 advantage is so bad that you're in champagne, right in the fake 261 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:13,400 Memorial Stadium? Yes. 262 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,120 Or whatever they're calling it. Did they have that burned down? 263 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,840 They've tried. They failed. 264 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,000 All right, the big one. And this, this last game in the 265 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,160 Big 10 took on different meaning today. 266 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,650 Michigan at Michigan State. The I don't know if you've seen 267 00:14:28,650 --> 00:14:31,250 the revelations yet, but apparently the Big 10 268 00:14:31,250 --> 00:14:33,690 conferences approached Michigan State and told them there's 269 00:14:33,690 --> 00:14:36,810 credible evidence that Michigan has been putting coaches or 270 00:14:36,810 --> 00:14:42,490 somebody in the stands to steal offensive signs or or play call 271 00:14:42,490 --> 00:14:45,090 signs from other teams in the conference. 272 00:14:45,410 --> 00:14:48,890 They actually. Apparently Michigan State was 273 00:14:48,890 --> 00:14:51,210 entertaining the thought of like, not playing the game at 274 00:14:51,210 --> 00:14:53,190 all. They are going to play the game. 275 00:14:53,190 --> 00:14:55,790 They decided to go ahead and do that line right now. 276 00:14:55,790 --> 00:14:58,550 Is Michigan -24. What you thinking? 277 00:15:01,030 --> 00:15:03,230 So they did the bill, Belichick. Thing they did? 278 00:15:03,230 --> 00:15:06,230 Yes. Oh, OK Well, This is why I love 279 00:15:06,230 --> 00:15:09,070 Jim Harbaugh and why I wish he was I US football coach. 280 00:15:09,110 --> 00:15:10,950 Because the guy wants to freaking win. 281 00:15:11,070 --> 00:15:13,990 He doesn't care who loves him. All he cares about is winning 282 00:15:13,990 --> 00:15:17,870 football games 24 in a rivalry game. 283 00:15:17,990 --> 00:15:23,010 OK, so Michigan State always, always plays Michigan. 284 00:15:23,010 --> 00:15:28,650 Tough in this game and I want to take I have 24 1/2 available. 285 00:15:29,010 --> 00:15:33,570 I'm hesitant I would take the 24 1/2 Michigan State, but I don't 286 00:15:33,570 --> 00:15:37,290 feel good about it. They got a young quarterback and 287 00:15:37,610 --> 00:15:41,210 not a great offensive line and this could be a bloodbath, but 288 00:15:41,210 --> 00:15:44,330 the rivalry factor makes me want to take all those points. 289 00:15:44,650 --> 00:15:48,250 Yeah, it's interesting because with this series. 290 00:15:48,570 --> 00:15:51,330 Michigan State's won several games against Michigan, which 291 00:15:51,370 --> 00:15:53,410 sticks in the craw of Jim Harbaugh. 292 00:15:53,810 --> 00:15:56,170 You had the fight in the tunnel last year. 293 00:15:56,170 --> 00:15:58,850 There's a lot of bad blood that might spill over even more and 294 00:15:58,850 --> 00:16:01,050 Michigan State doesn't have a lot to play for at this point. 295 00:16:01,050 --> 00:16:03,130 You kind of saw that in that Rutgers game last week where 296 00:16:03,130 --> 00:16:08,330 they end up losing. So yeah, it's AII would teeter 297 00:16:08,330 --> 00:16:10,170 on this one as well. But I I kind of like where your 298 00:16:10,170 --> 00:16:12,890 head's at overall. All right. 299 00:16:12,890 --> 00:16:16,010 So that's that's our big 10 slate for this week and and just 300 00:16:16,050 --> 00:16:18,140 to. You know, just thinking about 301 00:16:18,140 --> 00:16:20,860 how what would say, what would what is your best or most 302 00:16:20,860 --> 00:16:23,700 confident bet Of all of the games that we've talked about 303 00:16:23,700 --> 00:16:25,980 through this mix. Rutgers. 304 00:16:26,060 --> 00:16:30,940 Yeah, covering IUI when that I don't normally place large bets, 305 00:16:31,620 --> 00:16:35,300 the 2nd that four point line came out, I placed a large bet. 306 00:16:35,980 --> 00:16:37,700 I just thought the line looked ridiculous. 307 00:16:38,300 --> 00:16:41,420 After I placed the bet, I went and looked at the S&P prediction 308 00:16:41,940 --> 00:16:43,740 and I felt much, much better. Yeah. 309 00:16:43,740 --> 00:16:45,870 So that that's the one I feel most confident. 310 00:16:45,870 --> 00:16:48,230 Getting five points of value there, it's hard to argue 311 00:16:48,230 --> 00:16:50,790 against. All right, let's move out West. 312 00:16:50,830 --> 00:16:53,550 No Colorado line this week, unfortunately. 313 00:16:53,710 --> 00:16:55,830 Deion Sanders in the Buffs are off. 314 00:16:56,510 --> 00:17:00,950 But there is Ausc game. We've got Utah, USC coming up 315 00:17:00,950 --> 00:17:04,310 this weekend. This line has gone US CS 316 00:17:04,310 --> 00:17:06,190 direction. It opened at 5 1/2. 317 00:17:06,190 --> 00:17:11,790 It's now USC -7. Utah still ranked ahead of USC, 318 00:17:11,790 --> 00:17:13,670 but still with some offensive issues. 319 00:17:13,670 --> 00:17:19,750 What do we got here? Offensive issues against US CS 320 00:17:19,750 --> 00:17:21,950 defense. One of them's got to give and 321 00:17:21,950 --> 00:17:25,829 it's going to be US CS defense. That defense is about as bad as 322 00:17:26,109 --> 00:17:28,830 that defense is as bad as I use offense. 323 00:17:29,430 --> 00:17:31,990 So to put that in perspective for folks who haven't seen them 324 00:17:31,990 --> 00:17:34,430 play, that's how bad I think US CS defense is. 325 00:17:34,430 --> 00:17:37,750 Give me the Utes to cover here. I wouldn't be surprised they 326 00:17:37,750 --> 00:17:39,610 pull the upset. There you go. 327 00:17:39,730 --> 00:17:44,450 All right, so Utes plus seven in that game, this, since we're 328 00:17:44,450 --> 00:17:48,170 talking over, under, is the over under on that 154 1/2 at this 329 00:17:48,170 --> 00:17:52,930 point? Yeah, USC over unders have been 330 00:17:52,930 --> 00:17:56,330 killing me this year, so I'm staying away from those now. 331 00:17:56,330 --> 00:17:59,650 I'm just going spreads on them. And Caleb Williams, by the way, 332 00:17:59,690 --> 00:18:01,530 seems like a very unlikable fellow. 333 00:18:02,020 --> 00:18:04,020 You know, You hear him and you hear Mike peddicks. 334 00:18:04,100 --> 00:18:06,540 And there's one you definitely want to root for, to win the 335 00:18:06,540 --> 00:18:08,940 Heisman. Yeah, I'll just throw that out 336 00:18:08,940 --> 00:18:10,700 there. One of them is not asking for 337 00:18:10,700 --> 00:18:13,180 equity from whatever NFL team drafts him. 338 00:18:13,180 --> 00:18:14,820 So you know. Yeah, exactly. 339 00:18:15,420 --> 00:18:18,540 My favorite was when Caleb Williams said step in my 12 1/2 340 00:18:18,540 --> 00:18:20,620 shoe. Like 12 1/2. 341 00:18:20,860 --> 00:18:26,780 Come on, do we need the half? Also just a quick Michael 342 00:18:26,780 --> 00:18:31,090 Peddicks update, Washington. Right now, -26 1/2 against 343 00:18:31,090 --> 00:18:32,810 Arizona State. That Arizona State team's been 344 00:18:32,810 --> 00:18:36,770 real bad this whole year. I do worry a little bit in that 345 00:18:36,770 --> 00:18:39,690 game about a let down effect after that big win against 346 00:18:39,690 --> 00:18:42,690 Oregon last week. So I I might be tempted to avoid 347 00:18:43,370 --> 00:18:45,810 taking Wiscottara Washington and the points in this one. 348 00:18:46,050 --> 00:18:48,290 Look at maybe like some Pennix props. 349 00:18:48,290 --> 00:18:52,890 Last week we had over 3 1/2 touchdowns and that was like at 350 00:18:52,890 --> 00:18:58,740 plus 125 or something like that or plus 1/20 and that hit. 351 00:18:58,740 --> 00:19:02,700 So maybe look at appendix proper too, if you want to watch the 352 00:19:02,700 --> 00:19:06,220 Washington game. I think it'd be worth the the 353 00:19:06,220 --> 00:19:07,780 entertainment. It's a late night game too. 354 00:19:07,780 --> 00:19:10,380 If you need something to fall asleep to 10:30 PM, kick here in 355 00:19:10,380 --> 00:19:11,540 the Eastern Time zone. All right. 356 00:19:12,420 --> 00:19:15,140 Let's get to our wrap up here. We've got what do we got? 357 00:19:15,140 --> 00:19:16,740 Give me this, give me the segments here at the end. 358 00:19:16,740 --> 00:19:19,300 What are we doing? All right, we've got the teaser 359 00:19:19,300 --> 00:19:21,460 parlay of the week, All right, This is our Big 10. 360 00:19:21,460 --> 00:19:23,020 Only one. And then I've got. 361 00:19:23,020 --> 00:19:25,500 I've got another teaser from outside the Big 10. 362 00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:28,300 All right, So we're gonna take three of our bets that we just 363 00:19:28,300 --> 00:19:31,460 made. We're gonna take Rutgers and we 364 00:19:31,460 --> 00:19:33,940 tease it and we're gonna get a point and 1/2 with Rutgers. 365 00:19:34,180 --> 00:19:36,580 That's the no brainer. We're gonna take Penn State, 366 00:19:36,580 --> 00:19:40,250 where we're gonna be getting 10 1/2 points at Ohio Stadium, and 367 00:19:40,250 --> 00:19:43,930 we're going to take that Iowa over where we'll have 25 1/2 is 368 00:19:43,930 --> 00:19:48,610 the number we have to be if that doesn't hit. 369 00:19:49,810 --> 00:19:53,010 Immediately at my mind immediately went to 20 to 3 as 370 00:19:53,010 --> 00:19:55,530 being I know. And as soon as as soon as I said 371 00:19:55,530 --> 00:19:58,410 it, I go, oh shit, wonder what the cash out is on that because 372 00:19:58,410 --> 00:20:04,010 I've already placed this bat. So I OK, I don't feel great 373 00:20:04,010 --> 00:20:06,130 about that one, but this one I love. 374 00:20:06,210 --> 00:20:10,200 OK, we have. University of Louisiana, Monroe, 375 00:20:11,120 --> 00:20:12,840 we're gonna take them on a tease. 376 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,080 And so they're getting 23 points now against Georgia Southern. 377 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,520 We're gonna take Missouri and South Carolina, and we're gonna 378 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,800 take the over in that game and we're gonna tease that down to 379 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:27,160 54 points and we're gonna take Tennessee Volunteers getting 15 380 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,800 1/2 now at Alabama. So I really like that one. 381 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,320 I I think that's a pretty good one from outside the Big 10. 382 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,520 Well, overall that sounds pretty intriguing. 383 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,200 I think I actually, I like both of those. 384 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:43,120 Look, I think realistically if they're Iowa, Minnesota's a 385 00:20:43,120 --> 00:20:45,040 rivalry game, I wouldn't be shocked if there were some 386 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,280 points scored in that going back to that previous one. 387 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,680 But but I also like that mix of what you just lined up. 388 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,440 I mean, I think it's, it's a little little esoteric, some 389 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,560 things coming in from different areas there, but I like all of 390 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,720 those individual bets. So that certainly makes sense. 391 00:20:59,850 --> 00:21:03,570 And as usual, I will post all of these on X for anybody following 392 00:21:03,570 --> 00:21:07,450 Crimson Cast 26 O. You can check them out there. 393 00:21:08,210 --> 00:21:13,610 Let me let me finish off any any end of season award props or 394 00:21:13,610 --> 00:21:16,690 champion or like you know CFP props that you like at this 395 00:21:16,690 --> 00:21:18,010 point. We saw this week. 396 00:21:18,010 --> 00:21:20,530 Obviously Michael Pennix has swung into the lead a bit in the 397 00:21:20,530 --> 00:21:23,090 Heisman chase. Lot of people have been saying, 398 00:21:23,090 --> 00:21:25,410 OK, that that looks like the guy to beat. 399 00:21:26,660 --> 00:21:29,620 Anything on that front you're looking at and saying this is, 400 00:21:29,700 --> 00:21:33,020 this is really something that I wouldn't jump on at this point. 401 00:21:33,700 --> 00:21:36,420 Right now the Heisman odds looks like the most recent ones off of 402 00:21:36,420 --> 00:21:40,700 BET. MGM Pennix is at -145, Dylan 403 00:21:40,700 --> 00:21:44,740 Gabriel, JJ McCarthy are both plus 1000, and then you got 404 00:21:44,740 --> 00:21:47,380 Jaden Daniels and Jordan Travis at plus 1300. 405 00:21:49,580 --> 00:21:52,540 Yeah, none of that gets my nipples hard, I'm going to be 406 00:21:52,540 --> 00:21:55,460 honest with you. I mean, the Penex number is not 407 00:21:55,460 --> 00:21:58,660 great 'cause, I mean, look, he goes out and has one shit 408 00:21:58,660 --> 00:22:02,500 performance or blows his knee out, then you're out and it's 409 00:22:02,540 --> 00:22:05,220 not great odds. You know McCarthy. 410 00:22:06,580 --> 00:22:09,980 No, you know, I mean he's putting up decent numbers, but 411 00:22:10,060 --> 00:22:14,260 do you think of JJ McCarthy as some prolific college football 412 00:22:14,260 --> 00:22:17,000 quarterback? Not really, you know, So I I 413 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:22,800 don't like the Heisman bets now. If Penn State beats Ohio State 414 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:26,200 this weekend, I might be looking at some Penn State, well, 415 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,160 national championship. And this is what I was going to 416 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:31,240 say right now, or I guess this was as of two days ago. 417 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,560 I don't think these have changed too much. 418 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,480 But if you look on the plus side in odds to make the College 419 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,920 Football Playoff right now, there's three teams that are in 420 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,680 minus territory. Georgia's at -195, Michigan's at 421 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:44,440 -155 and Florida State's at -150. 422 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,630 You get past that. There's basically two different 423 00:22:47,630 --> 00:22:50,630 groups of teams that look like they have a realistic shot. 424 00:22:51,110 --> 00:22:52,190 Who? Which of these do you like? 425 00:22:52,190 --> 00:22:55,310 Let me give you the first group. Washington's at plus 125, 426 00:22:55,310 --> 00:22:58,910 Oklahoma's at plus 160. Ohio State's at plus one. 427 00:22:58,910 --> 00:23:03,190 Seventy of those three. Is there one you feel like you 428 00:23:03,190 --> 00:23:08,590 get the best value for there? I think Oklahoma has the easiest 429 00:23:08,590 --> 00:23:13,470 path to get to get there. So, I mean, if if I were betting 430 00:23:13,470 --> 00:23:18,180 it, I would Who's more likely to lose a game and and who are they 431 00:23:18,180 --> 00:23:20,140 playing? Ohio State by far has the 432 00:23:20,140 --> 00:23:23,660 tougher schedule of any of those teams and Washington would be a 433 00:23:23,660 --> 00:23:25,460 close second. And Oklahoma, I think. 434 00:23:27,020 --> 00:23:29,780 I think they'll probably walk through another Big 12 435 00:23:29,780 --> 00:23:32,300 championship as they slide on out the door. 436 00:23:32,420 --> 00:23:34,220 Yeah. And then that next group will 437 00:23:34,220 --> 00:23:36,900 finish up with this. You've got Texas at plus 240, 438 00:23:36,900 --> 00:23:42,540 Penn State at plus 250 and Alabama at +400, I mean. 439 00:23:43,260 --> 00:23:45,540 All of those have some intriguing elements to them. 440 00:23:45,540 --> 00:23:50,100 Texas feels like a bit that feels like weird odds given the 441 00:23:50,180 --> 00:23:52,100 where they are right now in the standings. 442 00:23:52,260 --> 00:23:54,140 Penn State at 250's kind of intriguing. 443 00:23:54,140 --> 00:23:57,820 And I mean Alabama at plus 400 people. 444 00:23:57,940 --> 00:24:00,460 They look like a team that you're ready to shovel dirt on 445 00:24:00,460 --> 00:24:03,060 and say they're done, but they're still in pretty good 446 00:24:03,060 --> 00:24:05,260 shape in the SEC West at this stage. 447 00:24:05,940 --> 00:24:08,340 Yeah. So I mean, I like those odds for 448 00:24:08,340 --> 00:24:10,740 Bammer. I think Penn State of that group 449 00:24:10,740 --> 00:24:14,310 probably has the best shot because they control their own 450 00:24:14,310 --> 00:24:16,670 destiny at this point and and that's a good football. 451 00:24:17,110 --> 00:24:19,270 I've seen them play and I've seen Alabama play and I've seen 452 00:24:19,270 --> 00:24:21,030 Texas play. Penn State's the best of those 453 00:24:21,030 --> 00:24:24,350 teams. So you know, they may have Ohio 454 00:24:24,350 --> 00:24:27,350 State and Michigan still on deck and that's a big problem. 455 00:24:28,390 --> 00:24:32,830 But you know, Bama's got every game in the SEC is difficult. 456 00:24:32,830 --> 00:24:34,270 Ish. Yeah. 457 00:24:34,270 --> 00:24:35,670 Well, unless you're playing Vanderbilt. 458 00:24:35,670 --> 00:24:38,710 I was gonna say, yeah, not all of them are that difficult, but 459 00:24:38,710 --> 00:24:40,990 yeah, Auburn. But you know, Auburn's a rivalry 460 00:24:40,990 --> 00:24:42,870 game for them, you know, so, you know, you kind of throw those 461 00:24:42,870 --> 00:24:45,150 things out. I do kind of like Penn State. 462 00:24:46,510 --> 00:24:48,990 I'm tempted to toss a little on them on the money line this 463 00:24:48,990 --> 00:24:51,390 week. I just got a feeling this might 464 00:24:51,390 --> 00:24:53,470 be the time. They break the hex. 465 00:24:53,710 --> 00:24:56,350 They've lost five straight, at least to them. 466 00:24:56,350 --> 00:24:58,030 I know that. So I. 467 00:24:58,430 --> 00:25:01,550 What do we really need? I think in the big 10 we need. 468 00:25:02,020 --> 00:25:05,100 We need the Triangle to happen. We need Penn State to beat Ohio 469 00:25:05,100 --> 00:25:08,020 State, Ohio State to beat Michigan and Michigan to beat 470 00:25:08,020 --> 00:25:10,740 Penn State. Just so we have a gigantic mess 471 00:25:10,740 --> 00:25:13,540 at the end of the year in the Big 10 E and somebody feels 472 00:25:13,540 --> 00:25:16,420 aggrieved as they head into the the Big 10 title game. 473 00:25:16,420 --> 00:25:19,740 Or don't, as the case may be. I would love nothing more than 474 00:25:19,740 --> 00:25:21,820 that because I want to see, like Air Force in the College 475 00:25:21,820 --> 00:25:24,700 Football Playoff. They're still undefeated and it 476 00:25:24,700 --> 00:25:26,580 could happen. They can stay undefeated, you 477 00:25:26,580 --> 00:25:28,220 know? That's what I want to see. 478 00:25:28,220 --> 00:25:31,790 I want to see total chaos. I want to see, you know, the 479 00:25:31,790 --> 00:25:34,990 whole system just up in flames because it's just more 480 00:25:35,270 --> 00:25:37,710 entertaining that way because I don't have a dog in the fight. 481 00:25:38,190 --> 00:25:40,150 I don't have any odds on Air Force in the College Football 482 00:25:40,150 --> 00:25:41,790 Playoffs, sadly. We'll find those though. 483 00:25:41,950 --> 00:25:44,910 Anyway, Thanks James. As always, a pleasure. 484 00:25:44,910 --> 00:25:48,350 Another great episode of Crimson Cash and we folks like to make 485 00:25:48,350 --> 00:25:49,710 money. This is the guy to listen to. 486 00:25:50,430 --> 00:25:53,510 We'll hopefully we'll do this again at some point soon. 487 00:25:53,630 --> 00:25:56,190 I might have to elbow Scott out every once in a while on 488 00:25:56,190 --> 00:25:58,110 hosting.

Bring back the Bison. 498 00:26:18,390 --> 00:26:18,990 So long, everybody.
