And not spirits I guess, but 19 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,960 drinks. But spirited drinks I'd say. 20 00:01:09,960 --> 00:01:12,080 But one that definitely has a lot of spirit is the Hoosier 21 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:16,000 Game Day Lager, featuring the economic iconic cream and 22 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,560 Crimson candy Stripe can.

Maybe Upland will be there, 24 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,560 maybe IU ship some of those, That would be awesome. 25 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,080 But next couple weeks after this game in LA, they will be there 26 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,480 at Memorial Stadium helping you cheer on the Hoosiers to many, 27 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,440 many victories.

I'm going to cut you off before 34 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,960 I even let you talk. I'm walking into the stadium 35 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:02,760 yesterday, last week for the game with my family and just I, 36 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,680 I, I guess 'cause we do some of these on video, although I don't 37 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:07,560 always post on video 'cause I'm not great with that. 38 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,120 And I'm also loud and my voice is maybe recognizable. 39 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,520 I'm just talking to my family. Walking up to Memorial Stadium, 40 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,520 literally a guy across the way, just like, hey, man, hey Scott, 41 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,000 they just put the line out for the game. 42 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,800 It's 42 1/2. And I was like, what? 43 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,880 He's like, I was just listening to you and James and Crimson 44 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,200 Cash. It's like you're talking about 45 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:25,160 the line. It's out. 46 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:26,400 What are you going to do over under? 47 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,640 And it's just like, I love all of this. 48 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,840 I can and I'm probably still not going to bet because I'm scared. 49 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,560 And the little that I know, I you would basically cover by 50 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,800 halftime. That's just fantastic. 51 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,120 I love to hear it. So people are listening, people 52 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:42,880 are are loving it, they're saying hi. 53 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,560 It's awesome. I look forward to hopefully 54 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,960 people saying hi. And when we're out in LA, you, 55 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,920 you will not be there, but I will. 56 00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:52,400 I will send the love. So anybody has anything that 57 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,160 they want to say to James, say to me and I'll pass it on to you 58 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:59,640 next week. Oh, you're muted. 59 00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:11,690 You're. From Indiana to Pasadena, I 60 00:03:11,690 --> 00:03:12,810 think we've got a movie right here. 61 00:03:13,130 --> 00:03:17,610 Smokey and the Bandit 4. Hold on. 62 00:03:19,050 --> 00:03:21,090 All right, talk again. Somehow your mic cut out there 63 00:03:21,090 --> 00:03:25,760 for a second. I was saying so, OK, imagine 64 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,200 this. You get you get to Pasadena, 65 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,760 right? And there's no game day logger 66 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,120 to be found. So you've got to get a truck 67 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:38,000 full of game day logger driven from Indiana to Pasadena in time 68 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,640 for kickoff. We've got ourselves smoking the 69 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,760 band at 4 right there. That's great. 70 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,040 Or it's like a cannonball run. Like you Dom Deloise, you get in 71 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,680 the ambulance. It's like just James trying to 72 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,280 make it to Pasadena in 12 hours. Let's go. 73 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,960 I'm so happy that you made me Burt Reynolds and not Don 74 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,120 Bellowies, so that I thank you for that, Scott. 75 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:57,840 Yeah. No, no, no. 76 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,800 Or I could make you I think. It's like, oh, you and Burt 77 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,360 Reynolds heading to and I'm like, whoa. 78 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,840 Or I could have put you in you Terry Bradshaw. 79 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:10,400 And the monkey wasn't like their one where like they they were in 80 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:12,400 the back seat and the monkey was driving in the front seat. 81 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,640 I think that was Cannonball Run too. 82 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,519 Was that Cannonball Run 2? It was one or two. 83 00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:22,640 I mean I, I, I remember lots that was so in the days of me 84 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,280 being way too young to have HBO at my house. 85 00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:29,280 But like 8687 watching cannonball run and cannonball 86 00:04:29,280 --> 00:04:31,280 run 2. There is a 2 hot chicks in the 87 00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:35,280 Lamborghini Countache driving across there was the the 88 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,800 Japanese guy who had like the really cool Subaru with I think 89 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:44,440 Jaws from or he drove with Jaws from from James Bond. 90 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,280 I always preferred the laugh Olympics races, the Hanna 91 00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:51,040 Barbera version. Of the cannon, no Cannonball 92 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,400 Rome was solid. Both of those movies were 93 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,400 fantastic. Well, I don't know. 94 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,120 Fantastic. Maybe a stretch? 95 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,880 Then you have like the Arab guys and Telly Savalas was in one of 96 00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:02,320 them. It's just, it was I, I, I, I'm 97 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:03,440 going to keep them the way I remember. 98 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,680 I'm not going to go back and rewatch it because maybe I will. 99 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,800 Maybe on the plane to LA, I'll watch it, but I'm going to be 100 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,440 probably sorely disappointed when I start watching. 101 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:11,680 Like, man, I thought this was a lot. 102 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:15,720 That was a lot better. OK I'll put some money on that 5 103 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,560 bucks. If you rewatch it, you're going 104 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:23,920 to be disappointed with it. Probably, although maybe not the 105 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,440 girls in the Lamborghini, they're pretty hot. 106 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,520 All right, let's get to the let's get to the lines. 107 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,440 So we have a good number of lines. 108 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,720 We're going to save the IU game to last. 109 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:40,000 So let's go with the First off. We have 4th ranked Alabama and 110 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,920 Kaylin De Boer going into Wisconsin. 111 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,880 Wisconsin scheduling like they're on methadone or 112 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,360 something. Like I'm not sure what Wisconsin 113 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,760 is doing scheduling this game. This is so unlike them. 114 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:55,480 We have the Badgers up. They are a 16 1/2 point underdog 115 00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:00,640 at home to Alabama. Yeah, I'm going to take the 116 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,960 points here, but I don't feel good about it. 117 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,520 I I just, I mean, they're, they're tougher at home and they 118 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:12,600 usually slog things up enough to keep it within a three touchdown 119 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:17,320 game. I think that they probably cover 120 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:18,600 this, but I'm not going to bet it. 121 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,640 Yeah. I I think this is a a stay away. 122 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:27,720 Next up you have Arkansas State at Michigan dropping to 17th in 123 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:32,160 the polls. Michigan is a 22 and sorry, 23 124 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,080 1/2 point favorite at home. So here's the thinking most 125 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,120 people probably have, oh, Michigan's going to be really 126 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,080 upset after that beat down they got and they're going to come 127 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,200 out and they're going to put a hurting on somebody, right? 128 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,560 And I can see why you might think that, but I think Arkansas 129 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,320 State is going to be plucky enough to cover that three 130 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,960 touchdown plus spread. So give me Arkansas State plus 131 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,520 the points. Even last year, early in the 132 00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:00,640 year when Michigan was rolling, they didn't cover the spread for 133 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,880 like I think the first four or five weeks of the season. 134 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,560 They have yet to cover a spread this year. 135 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,000 So I think that continues this week. 136 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,760 I'm watching the Have you watched the Untold doc on 137 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,640 Netflix about Michigan? No, all right. 138 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:15,120 Is that the Connor Stallion thing? 139 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:16,680 It's the Connor Stallion way. I I. 140 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,960 Have no desire to watch that. Well then we I couldn't. 141 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,120 I couldn't be less interested. It's he doesn't come off, he 142 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,160 comes off very much like Rudy toward Notre Dame, like just 143 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,720 just very much like he's way into Michigan, like a high level 144 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,560 amount into Michigan. Like Galen and IU. 145 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,520 No, like an annoying amount of of Intuit like that. 146 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:38,960 I think we are. We're a good amount of Intuit. 147 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,520 All right. Next stop we have Central 148 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,560 Michigan going to Illinois, Illinois 2 and O quietly and 149 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,760 also an 18 1/2 point favorite at home. 150 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,680 Yeah, I love the Illini here. Same. 151 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,120 I I think they're a good football team. 152 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:59,400 The chips just got boat raced. Yeah, give me Illinois. 153 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,120 I think they cover that. I agree. 154 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,800 All right, Next up we have is Providence. 155 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:06,120 Let's see. It's Providence. 156 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,040 The oh, Prairie View, God, they are playing nobody. 157 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:11,560 I knew Michigan State was playing nobody at some point. 158 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,520 All right, Oh, I should have looked at the line. 159 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,560 It's 40 1/2. All right, so Michigan is a 40 160 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:19,200 1/2 point favorite at home. The line is 50. 161 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,320 The over under is 50.5 S They they assume like a 10 point 162 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,360 spread there for Prairie View. This is a this has got to be a 163 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,240 stay away, right? Yeah, don't bet this game 164 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,520 people, but if if you have to, I would probably drop the points 165 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,440 there. I'm still not sure Michigan 166 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,559 State's good like they're 2. And O. 167 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,080 I'm not sure what, but they did win a road game at Maryland and 168 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,120 that is that's something. And I watched that game because 169 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:47,640 we had the turtles and they fucked us over. 170 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,920 But you know, what Michigan State does is they just throw 171 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,200 like crazy, like ball amount of balls deep down the field and 172 00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,800 they connect on a field in the game. 173 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,200 And so I I can get the team like Prairie View, I can't imagine 174 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,440 they're not going to be able to connect on more than just a few 175 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:09,160 so. So Next up we have Oregon at 176 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:13,760 Oregon State. Oregon State is a 16 1/2 point 177 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,600 underdog at home. I also think if you're Oregon 178 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,320 State, do you just like you're at home, do you just like throw 179 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,360 some Big 10 logos on the field and just try and trick everyone 180 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,000 to think like, hey, guys, like we're good. 181 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,600 Like, hey, we'll we can play Wisconsin next week. 182 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,280 Like we're good. Like we're just call us a Big 10 183 00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,720 game. Like hey, Big 10, we're in. 184 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,560 Like if you're Oregon State, you you want this to just be every 185 00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:36,560 year and just be like, hey, man, like we're we're good. 186 00:09:36,560 --> 00:09:38,960 Like just let us let us in or try and trick your way into the 187 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,640 Big 10. They bring a giant inflatable 188 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:44,080 Beaver to next year's Big 10 Media day. 189 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:51,000 Yeah. So in the game, I like the 190 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,120 Beavers to cover this spread rivalry game and whatnot. 191 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,840 Yeah. Next up we have a Nevada going 192 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,440 into Minnesota. It feels like Minnesota never 193 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,440 plays Rd. games in the pre season in the in the pre 194 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,080 conference schedule. Feels like they just never play 195 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:09,560 Rd. games and again they're at home. 196 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:13,280 They are a 17 1/2 point favorite man, it's bad lines this week. 197 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:18,440 17 1/2 point favorite at home. Over under a 43 1/2 on this. 198 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:22,160 I'm going to take the under. I think Minnesota probably gets 199 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,160 out to a comfortable lead and then just kind of, you know, 200 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:30,320 does Minnesota stuff and and has a pretty ugly but convincing 201 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,280 victory. But I think they probably cover 202 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,000 too. But I think the under's the play 203 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,720 here. Another game where you have 204 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,400 Washington State at Washington does Washington State put the 205 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,600 Big 10 logo on their helmet And just like, hey man, this is 206 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,600 great. Like we, we got rivalries like 207 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,360 this is a great Big 10 West Coast match up. 208 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:48,960 Like just let us let us stay with you guys. 209 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,600 Washington at home is a four and a half point favorite over 210 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:58,480 Washington State. Yeah, another rivalry game here. 211 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,560 I believe this is the Apple Cup. Yes it is. 212 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,920 I I think so. Or is is Oregon the Apple Cup? 213 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,440 No, Washington and Michigan are the apple producing states, 214 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:08,080 right? OK. 215 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:09,440 You're right, you're right. Yeah. 216 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,680 So I don't know what Oregon Oregon State is. 217 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:14,880 Is it the you you talk? I'll look it up it. 218 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,640 Probably has something to do with a tree or a logging or 219 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,320 something. A paper mill. 220 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,200 It's a paper mill roller or something. 221 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,960 Yeah, but give me the Huskies to cover here. 222 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,400 OK civil war the Oregon Oregon State is the civil. 223 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,080 War I'll take, yeah, I'll take them to cover. 224 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:36,840 Oregon, Oregon State is the Civil War. 225 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,480 All right, Next up, this is this is a fun game. 226 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:44,280 I'm going to, I'm going to, I'm going to want to watch this 227 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:47,600 before the IU game. You have Notre Dame, who I one 228 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,880 of my favorite things always is a team that pays to lose. 229 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,760 Just always love that. Notre Dame also saved Michigan a 230 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,960 lot of Flack last weekend where Michigan just got throttled by 231 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,360 Texas, but nobody talked about it because you have the Notre 232 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,600 Dame law. So it's like Michigan fans are 233 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,440 thankful for Notre Dame that their existing. 234 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:10,280 Anyway, Notre Dame coming in still ranked what, 18th in the 235 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:11,720 country? It's like really? 236 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,480 Anyway, Purdue is a 10 point underdog at home. 237 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,040 I mean, almost any other big Big 10 team here I think has a real 238 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:21,880 shot. I'm not sure Purdue can get it 239 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,880 done, but I'm, I'm curious what you think here. 240 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,000 Can Purdue get it done? Can they cover? 241 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,280 Can they beat this spray? What do you think? 242 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,080 Do we have a train noise or something? 243 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,920 I I I have I still have a cat noise. 244 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,880 Well, that's not going to work in this case, but what we, I 245 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,320 think Purdue actually. We have an airplane. 246 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:42,880 This, this spread has actually gone down. 247 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,960 It was, it came out, I think it started at 11 1/2. 248 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,960 So we're down to 10 here. I think Purdue covers. 249 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:55,440 I actually think they could maybe, maybe pull off the upset. 250 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,960 Riley and Leonard looked so bad last week. 251 00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:02,200 I know. And Purdue's coach, the one 252 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,240 thing he's known for is being a defensive backs guy, right? 253 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:11,520 So I got a feeling if Purdue can stop the Notre Dame run game or 254 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,480 at least slow him down enough, I think Purdue has a chance to to 255 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,880 win, but I think they will cover. 256 00:13:18,560 --> 00:13:22,280 Next up you have the great Man of Troy going into Iowa. 257 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:26,560 Iowa is a 22 1/2 point favorite. The over under because always 258 00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:28,600 fun with Iowa. Over Under is 39. 259 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:31,400 Yeah, I'm just going to take the under. 260 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,240 Just because it's Iowa. Yeah, that's a safe play. 261 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaking of Iowa, I have revisited college football 25 262 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:43,160 since they've done some software patching and I tried, I tried 263 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,800 the road to glory where you're like your own player and you 264 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,800 choose what school you want to go to or whatever. 265 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,200 And I was a five star quarterback who chose to go to 266 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,960 Iowa. So but I'm currently lighting it 267 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,360 up. So I, I played them in my 268 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,120 dynasty where I'm Indiana and I just kick the living shit out of 269 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:02,640 them. I beat them like 80 to six like 270 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,480 and I was just like, this is this is payback for that 2021 271 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,080 year. Well, the thing I realized about 272 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:12,240 like some of the custom like audio, I think it's so annoying. 273 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:17,600 Like if I have to hear like I was hoping they could ride the 274 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,160 wave into the end zone for another touchdown. 275 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,760 Like it's like, oh God, I've heard it a billion times. 276 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,040 The audio's bad. Some of the songs they play in 277 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,920 like the stadium when you're playing the game is like it's 278 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,560 the same 5 songs over and over again. 279 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,520 Like there's this one, it's like this just this thumping beat. 280 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,400 It's I'm with you. I've I've turned the sound down 281 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,720 many a times. Just listen to podcast it's or 282 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,600 listen to music. It's it's the audio is not 283 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,800 awesome. But anyways, unlike the real 284 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,800 Iowa team, my fake Iowa team is scoring points, so we're going 285 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,440 to take the under on this Iowa Troy game. 286 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,760 You have you and I at Nebraska. Nebraska now ranked 23rd after 287 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,720 beating, I mean I guess a a Division One team in Colorado. 288 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,360 They look like garbage. Nebraska is 27 1/2 point 289 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,640 favorites. All right, we called that last 290 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:04,840 week. We knew that was going to 291 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:05,840 happen, right? Yep. 292 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,080 And I think that they cover this large spread again this week. 293 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,240 I think they're starting to get things cooking there. 294 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,560 You have EIO at North Northwestern, just just a home 295 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:18,240 forever now. I guess they just continue to 296 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,360 play because they don't have a home stadium. 297 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,000 They just get to play at home again, another home team always. 298 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,440 Northwestern is a 24 1/2 point favorite at home. 299 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,560 Now to be fair, Northwestern, didn't they play in Ireland a 300 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:33,400 couple years ago? To be fair, I think they do, 301 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,760 yeah. So, but when you've got a 302 00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,840 stadium that nice, you really want to show it off, right? 303 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:43,800 So, so I love Northwestern to cover this. 304 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,560 I think they will easily easily cover this OK. 305 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:49,680 Sounds like you think Northwestern's good. 306 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,760 No, Eastern Illinois is significantly. 307 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:53,920 Bad. OK, fair enough. 308 00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:57,640 Illinois has already played them this year and they beat him like 309 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:01,320 40 something to nothing. Maryland beat down. 310 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,520 Maryland going on the road to Virginia. 311 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,120 Virginia is a three-point underdog. 312 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:11,080 OK, I officially hate Maryland. Yeah, they're. 313 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:15,040 They're rough to bet on. And they have a trash defense. 314 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,840 I like the over here, even though it's a high number. 315 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,640 Virginia has gone over that number in both their games this 316 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,440 year. They like to put up a lot of 317 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,080 points. They like to give up a lot of 318 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,160 points. So yeah, give me the Over here 319 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,000 57 1/2. I like that. 320 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,320 I think that that's like your feels like that's your lock of 321 00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:34,200 the week. That's a good bet. 322 00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:36,560 I like that one. All right. 323 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:39,920 What could be 6:50 or something, Yeah. 324 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,880 Well, that's that's gambling. All right, we come to the the 325 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,600 game of the week game that I'm going to game. 326 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:49,240 Many fans are looking forward to the second Big 10 game of the 327 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:54,040 season, Indiana at UCLA. Think to everyone's surprise, 328 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:58,040 Indiana on the road first time in the Rose Bowl comes in as a 329 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:01,560 favorite. It was 2 1/2 I think it opened 330 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,520 at and now it's a 3 point favorite. 331 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,800 The sharps are all over the Hoosiers. 332 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,359 IU 3 point favorite over under 46 1/2. 333 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,079 What a crazy world we live in, Scott. 334 00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:18,000 I know. Can you, I mean, we are favored 335 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,960 in a big 10 Rd. game. And I mean, we haven't exactly 336 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:26,280 played the toughest competition yet, but UCLA looked horrible 337 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:27,560 against Hawaii. They did. 338 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:30,760 They've had a week off to work on some things, but IU had a 339 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,480 week against a weak opponent to work on some things. 340 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,040 And I think that that is probably the preferable 341 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,880 situation. I think Kirk Signetti, he is so 342 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,760 looking forward to putting a beat down on UCLA. 343 00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,360 Here's my here's my thing. All right. 344 00:17:45,360 --> 00:17:51,160 So like their coach gets, you know, hired like with no 345 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:54,520 experience, right? He'd he'd never, you know, been 346 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,880 a head coach at any level where somebody like Kurt Signetti has 347 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:02,280 busted his ass for decades to finally get to, you know, be a 348 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:03,760 head coach in the Big 10 program. 349 00:18:04,120 --> 00:18:07,680 I think he wants to. I think there might be a little 350 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,600 extra juice in the tank for this one. 351 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:13,000 So give me the Hoosiers here. I love the Hoosiers to win this 352 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,480 football game. I think they win it by a 353 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:16,320 touchdown. So you think we're going to win 354 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,600 and cover? I think we can win by double 355 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,240 digits. You're, you're speaking my 356 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,560 language and I, I agree, man. I go into this, I, I like 357 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:28,920 everything you're saying. I, I think IU has looked really 358 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,840 good and really crisp and I feel like they've held a lot of 359 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,320 things back. I think you're, you're seeing 360 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:39,720 glimpses of a expanded playbook last week, but I think you're 361 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,440 going to see a lot more when needed against UCLA. 362 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,840 But I also could see another situation. 363 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,960 We just run a lot of RPO's that work and it's like we're still 364 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,720 going to hold stuff back for for future games. 365 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:53,120 I'm with you. I like the Hoosiers. 366 00:18:53,120 --> 00:18:57,960 I like the Hoosiers to cover and watching Maryland and Michigan 367 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,680 State basically just like self fight each other and self stab 368 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,760 each other and try to both try to piss that game away. 369 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:11,840 I'm I'm looking at a really potential four and O start. 370 00:19:14,120 --> 00:19:16,480 I would not be surprised. Sorry five, sorry five and O 371 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:19,720 sorry 5 and I mess it up. Five and O like I I see us 372 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:23,080 beating UCLAI, we beat Charlotte, we're going to be 373 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,360 home to Maryland. I think if all those things go 374 00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:28,320 correct, go the way I'm thinking that Maryland game should be a 375 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:29,960 fun atmosphere and then it's like you're going in the 376 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,600 northwestern. Why can't you win that? 377 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,640 Like, why can't you be 6 and O going into that Nebraska game? 378 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:39,160 A Nebraska team that I think is good but always kind of feels a 379 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:44,680 little paper Tiger Y. It's I saw it somewhere today 380 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,600 that IU has a 12 1/2 percent chance to make the College 381 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:54,080 Football Playoff right now. How crazy is that? 382 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,200 It it is, I mean, but there's there's a world and it's 383 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,960 something Galen and I have talked about and it it does feel 384 00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:02,840 realistic now, especially when you see our competition and you 385 00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:06,840 see how we're playing. We could be 6 and O looking at 386 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:10,440 back-to-back home games against Nebraska and Washington. 387 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,680 Which wall are tough games. It's not Ohio State, Michigan, 388 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,640 but there's a world where you're like, hey man, we got two games 389 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:17,800 at home. We could be 8, no? 390 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:21,800 All right, we're getting ahead of ourselves. 391 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,080 I don't want to. I don't want to jinx anything. 392 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,680 What would what would Coach Sig tell us to do? 393 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,240 Shut up. We got to stop the pod. 394 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,760 Yeah, focus on you saying no, we and we, we need to go, we need 395 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:37,760 to win that game. So, but I, I think we will, and 396 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,480 I think we're going to, I think we're going to cover it. 397 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,960 And I, I think that's, this is where the rubber meets the road. 398 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:47,320 And I also think for a lot of, you know, IU fans, there's been 399 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:51,280 some excitement, but this is another one of those kind of 400 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,800 points, touch points that IU football has had. 401 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,480 And I guess where I'd say I'm concerned is every time we have 402 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,280 one of these touch points, it's like IU screws it up or they, 403 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:04,240 they failed to deliver. And if, you know, we come out 404 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:09,320 and we get throttled by like 17 or 21 points, everyone's going 405 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,240 to be like, all right, man. Like they're good against bad 406 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:12,520 teams. They suck against Big 10. 407 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,320 Like what what is different? And they would really need to 408 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:19,280 work to change that narrative. So I'm that's the only thing 409 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,520 that worries me is feels like we've been to this point many 410 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,920 times in IU football and they never that the Lucy always pulls 411 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:30,120 the football it feels like. I don't see us losing by three 412 00:21:30,120 --> 00:21:33,640 touchdowns, that's for sure. Now we could lose the game and I 413 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:38,920 think if we do it'll be a field goal or less, but this, this 414 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,440 team doesn't. This seems different. 415 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,680 I I agree. I agree this. 416 00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,400 Sounds different. It it, I think this is 417 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,360 different. I mean, Tom Allen, who we spent 418 00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:53,720 many years talking about, was never a college football head 419 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,800 coach ever before becoming the head coach at IU. 420 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,720 He didn't know what the hell he was doing. 421 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,960 We have a guy who actually knows what he's doing and the players 422 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,720 are good. I mean, these players we brought 423 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,640 in, they're good. These aren't your average IU 424 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,920 football players. I mean, we're all loaded. 425 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:18,600 So, you know, this is different. I'm I'm I refuse to to be all 426 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,440 doom and gloom until proven otherwise on this. 427 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:29,120 I agree, I agree with you, it just it'd be if they win this 428 00:22:29,120 --> 00:22:31,880 it'd be nice anyway. It does concern me, however, 429 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,320 that you and Galen will be at the game. 430 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,840 You know, so I know we're we're, but we're changing it. 431 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,760 This is this is the year it changes. 432 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:40,640 This is when it changes. And to be fair, we've only we've 433 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,200 only had one recent back football game, the Iowa game 434 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,040 where we we didn't do well together and we didn't sit 435 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,400 together. We're not sitting together for 436 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,800 this one either. But he didn't bring his family. 437 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,400 I wasn't with friends. I brought my family. 438 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:53,840 So maybe that's the difference. I bring my family. 439 00:22:54,120 --> 00:22:57,920 He doesn't we lose by, you know, 40 points. 440 00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,600 Maybe he brings his family. I don't. 441 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,920 And like we, we're we're going to find the alchemy here at 442 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,280 some. Point Well when you do, that's 443 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,440 when we'll we'll know when to zig and zag him back. 444 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,120 So. I'm looking at the western 445 00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:12,320 that's. The only thing that worries me 446 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,000 about putting big money on the Hoosier, so I'm just letting you 447 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,040 know that. I'm looking at the Western 448 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,960 Michigan line. I don't see the Western 449 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:27,160 Michigan, just their points line, but they are a 32 1/2 450 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:34,000 point favorite at home over BCU, which I'm assuming is Bethlehem 451 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,680 Cookman. Yeah, Bethune Cookman Wildcats. 452 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:42,160 So, you know, is the play there you go under the 51 1/2, 453 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:46,480 assuming that Walt Bell in the Western Michigan can't get 51 454 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:48,960 points. Like, like, like they need to 455 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,840 get 51 1/2. Like what's the play here? 456 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:59,040 Yeah, that's probably the play. Even when a Walt Bell offense is 457 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:00,920 cooking, it's not going to get you that many points. 458 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:05,880 So yeah, or maybe you just stay away from Western Michigan. 459 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:07,760 This. Week, yeah, but it's like for 460 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,600 like, can they cover 32 1/2 point line? 461 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,880 It's like they got to to do that they have to score 33 points. 462 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,720 Yeah. It's like every field goal is 463 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:17,320 another one they got. Like, I don't know if they can 464 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:21,600 put that many points up. I don't know how bad Bethune 465 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,120 Cookman is. I got a plead ignorant on this 466 00:24:24,120 --> 00:24:26,160 one. You're not you're degenerate. 467 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,600 You're not a complete degenerate is a fair way to put it. 468 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,480 Look, if this were college basketball, we'd be having a 469 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:35,520 different conversation. I bet the small schools in 470 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,200 college basketball, but not usually in college football. 471 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,320 All right, well, James, I appreciate you hopping on. 472 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,920 I will catch you next week.
