Indiana Hoosiers -7
Alabama Crimson Tide vs Indiana Hoosiers — Rose Bowl · You Better You Bet, 2025-12-22 · ·

“this is my favorite bet, and it's Indiana against Bama. I love Indiana in this spot. I think they're going to wax them. I really do. I don't think Bama's that good. I like Bama because I don't think Oklahoma's good at all. That's why I like Bama in the last round. I think Indiana, outside of like preseason expectations or whatever, they check all the boxes of a national title winner. And Bama, this ain't Nick Saban's Bama team. They do not check any of those boxes. So this is a pretty easy bet for me. Under a touchdown, touchdown, I might try to lay some alts. I think Indiana wins this one by like 20 plus. It does look like a fascinating point spread, right, where it's like Bama plus seven. Maybe go the other way. I'm laying it.”

Cleveland Browns +4
Cleveland Browns at Las Vegas Raiders · You Better You Bet, 2025-11-19 · ·

“This went from three, three and a half to now four, the Las Vegas Raiders four-point favorites on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. The total is even at 36, which, I mean, at first glance, that total seems like it's 10 points too high. I don't know where the points are coming from in this game. For those of you who are still brave enough to bet NFL totals, I am no longer amongst you folks, but for those of you who are, to me, that seems like a slam dunk under at a 36. Like this to me just screams 13, 10, 12 to nine, that kind of a game. But hey, I guess they put the total at 36 because maybe the quarterbacks throw pick sixes or turn the ball over deep in their own territory. That's probably the way that you're going to get points in that particular game. But when I think about this game, quarterback stuff aside, it could be Shador, it could be Dylan Gabriel, it could be Kelly Holcomb. I don't know, whoever. The best unit on the field is still the Cleveland Browns defense, and it's by a pretty wide margin. And now a Raiders team, who, by the way, coming off of a short week, they're at home, but it's a short week, just lost to the Dallas Cowboys on Monday. A Raiders team that has a bad quarterback, has no offensive line, and has a defense that outside of Max Crosby can't do anything. Why can't Cleveland craft a game plan to be competitive in the game? You're going to unleash Miles Garrett on that offensive line that we saw Monday night that made the Dallas Cowboys defense look like one of the top half defenses in the league. Miles Garrett might break the single season sack record on Sunday against that terrible Raiders offensive line. This defense is awesome for Cleveland. That's not been a question. So for me, Shador Sanders at quarterback, everyone says, oh, rookie quarterback on the road, time to fade him. Usually I would be right there with you. But this Raiders team, that's not the team that you want to fade Shador Sanders with. To me, this is a bet on the Cleveland Browns”

They're the favorites in that weak division, plus 135 to win the AFC South. Taylor also leads the league in rushing yards right now with 236. And oh, by the way, just today was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week after his game against the Denver Broncos, 165 on the ground, 50 through the air, and a receiving touchdown as well. And this week on Sunday against Tennessee, he gets to go up against the 32nd ranked rush defensive EPA per play in the Tennessee Titans. Taylor could have another big game.

Like they're just not good at all. They lost to Georgia Tech. They were down by 16 against Troy. They didn't come back to win that game. And they lost the Clemson Labor Day weekend. And I don't think we need to be giving LSU points for that. And in fact, I think what we're going to be doing is we're going to be back in Miami against this Florida team that, like you mentioned, should have been very competitive in the game against the LSU type. You bet Florida. I bet LSU. I kind of walk away from that game. I think I was very lucky to cover the spread and win my bet on that game. I don't think they should have won because I think LSU would have done just enough to win the game. But they definitely should have covered. They definitely should have covered. Like you don't lose that like five interceptions and you only lose by 10. Like you for sure were competitive. But hey, you know what? The quarterback's going to turn the ball over and that's what happens. That's football on a Saturday. And I guess Brian Kelly says, hey, we won an SEC game by 10. Get off my ass. Everyone's kind of been giving him problems over there in Baton Rouge. But I do think Miami gets it done. I think Miami this year is like a juggernaut and is very much a talented team.

That's typically when the Cowboys outperform expectations. A team that over the last three decades has underperformed, especially in the month of January when we're talking playoffs, has underperformed when everyone is doubting the Cowboys. That's when they overperform. And I think this year is going to be a year where they overperform once again. I like the win total over. Dak Prescott being healthy I think is great news for anyone looking to back the Dallas Cowboys. People continue to sleep on this team because they're overexposed. And that's not a good enough reason for me to sleep on a team. Yes, you're all sick and tired of hearing about all the daytime shows talking about, oh, Dak Prescott. Should he be looking over his shoulder? Can he win the big one? It's annoying. I get it. I'm annoyed and I'm a fan of the team. But if we're talking about regular season, something that Dak has succeeded at in his NFL career, I'll put my money on him. I'll put my money on the Cowboys going over, even though there are big question marks at the head coaching position with Brian Schottenheimer. Because at the end of the day, it's all about the number. And this number is way too low for a team with Dak Prescott, Micah Parsons, and CeeDee Lamb with no injuries is known for winning double-digit games. So I'll back America's team this year, and I'll back the over on the Cowboys. The other piece of news that we saw earlier this afternoon, and this one actually came out earlier this morning, Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins felt, quote, misled after the Falcons drafted rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. last season.”

[1:05:32] I think the Raiders plus 310 to make the playoffs. [1:05:36] I am all aboard the silver and black ever since they hired Pete Carroll. [1:05:40] I've been in coaching. [1:05:42] It matters. [1:05:42] Big time upgrade going from Antonio Pierce to Pete Carroll quarterback play. [1:05:46] It matters even more big time upgrade going from Gardner Minshew Aiden O'Connell to now [1:05:52] Geno Smith, who's not like a great quarterback, but is an above average quarterback and is way [1:05:57] better than what they've had over the last couple of years. That defense quietly top 10 in the NFL, [1:06:03] like really, really strong. Max Crosby, Christian Wilkins, like that defense will be really, [1:06:08] really good up front.

“[1:11:12] If you do like the Carolina Panthers to make the playoffs, my team that's plus money to miss the playoffs is in that very division. [1:11:20] and it is in lockstep with your thought, [1:11:22] and that is with the three-time defending [1:11:24] NFC South champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. [1:11:27] I think this is finally the year that the Bucs fall off. [1:11:31] Like last year, everybody was predicting it [1:11:32] when they lost Dave Canales to Carolina. [1:11:35] It's like, oh, how did they replace Dave Canales? [1:11:37] Well, they did a pretty good job with Liam Cohen. [1:11:39] Now the question is, how do they replace Liam Cohen? [1:11:42] I think that one might be a little trickier to replace. [1:11:44] Like Tampa, they've been really good. [1:11:46] They've been consistent, but their ceiling is just not high. [1:11:49] And I am buying the ceiling a little bit more of a team like Atlanta. [1:11:53] I could even buy it with a team like Carolina, like Patches outlined. [1:11:56] I just think that Tampa this year is going to take a step back. [1:12:00] It's not the biggest plus money price for them to miss the playoffs. [1:12:03] It's plus 125. [1:12:05] So it's not something like gigantic payout. [1:12:07] But I think the Bucs fall just a little bit short because I'd like Atlanta to win the NFC South. [1:12:11] And I think the other NFC wildcard teams, I just like them better. [1:12:15] Like the Commanders, I think, are going to be a wildcard team because I like Philadelphia to win the NFC East, [1:12:19] which we'll talk about coming up in the next segment. [1:12:21] But I think the commanders make the wild card because Jaden Daniels is too good. [1:12:24] I think Detroit makes the wild card, even though they lost both of their coordinators. [1:12:28] I do like Detroit because Dan Campbell has built a big-time foundation, [1:12:32] and that roster is loaded. [1:12:33] They're going to get Aiden Hutchinson back as well. [1:12:35] And I think the Niners bounce back. [1:12:37] But once they get healthier, Brock Purdy, Kyle Shanahan, when they've been healthy, [1:12:40] they've made the playoffs every single year. [1:12:42] So I think the Niners actually get there. [1:12:43] So, like, you play this game of musical chairs, music stops. [1:12:47] I don't think the Buccaneers will have a seat at the table.

San Antonio Spurs +3
Phoenix Suns at San Antonio Spurs · You Better You Bet, 2025-02-20 · ·

“[29:01] All right, we got this. [29:02] And all of a sudden you come out a little bit flat. [29:04] You don't have all your stuff going. [29:06] You're not on your P's and Q's. [29:07] You're not dotting the I's, crossing the T's. [29:09] and maybe you go out there and get clipped a little bit. [29:12] So I think that in this instance, for me, [29:14] this is definitely setting up for Spurs or pass, [29:16] and we're going to go out and give our bets at 640 [29:19] during Gambling Night in America, [29:20] make sure everybody tunes out for that. [29:21] I'm going to be betting the San Antonio Spurs tonight. [29:24] Just to play against this news, [29:25] to think that maybe it's a little bit too much [29:27] baked into the market that Wemby is out [29:29] and his presence will not be out there on the floor. [29:32] I would like to bet San Antonio against a Suns team [29:34] that is, yeah, not that impressive. [29:37] They're 500. [29:38] They're out there in the play-in tournament as well. [29:40] This is the team that San Antonio would have been competing with to get [29:43] to the postseason at home. [29:45] I think you could see the Spurs at least try to rally in just this night. [29:47] Going forward, it's probably going to hurt them really, really badly, [29:50] and I'll look to be betting against the Spurs going forward. [29:53] But tonight in particular, I want to bet on San Antonio [29:56] to kind of rise to the occasion against a lackluster Phoenix team. [30:00] Fantastic handicap. [30:01] The Fallen Hero spots make a ton of sense. [30:03] Not only do the players relax, but also what do you scheme for? [30:08] You know, like you've got your game plan set, [30:11] And I'm sure Phoenix probably going into the all-star break during the all-star break. [30:15] All right, we've got San Antonio first game out. [30:17] Let's get our prep ready to go. [30:18] Let's make sure we can defend Wemby. [30:20] Let's prepare for this particular lineup. [30:23] And then the morning of the game, you get this nuke that gets dropped into the market. [30:29] Yeah, I think the first game and, you know, usually in basketball, because it's such a volume sport, baseball, too. [30:35] That first little stretch right after a big time player goes down, you figure out a way to get around it. [30:41] And then as the time horizon widens and more games, more data points start filtering in, [30:47] that's when you start to notice a star player being out of the lineup. [30:51] So I think if you get a three tonight, and I'm already seeing one three pop up, [30:56] and we're trending towards two and a half right now, towards three with the juice. [31:00] I think San Antonio plus three is a pretty decent bet tonight. [31:04] Oh, baby. Fallen hero spot. A YBYB special. [31:07] Will no Wemby for the Spurs? [31:09] Go Spurs, go. [31:11] We're betting them tonight against the Phoenix Suns. [31:13] On the other side, DPOI is not the only market impacted by Victor Wembenyama's season-ending injury.”

SA 120, PHX 109 — San Antonio beat Phoenix outright 120-109 on Feb 20, 2025, so Spurs +3 covered easily (ESPN box score).

Now we'll have to wait for the weekend on Denzel Ward. He was limited in practice today dealing with that concussion, but I don't know if he's going to clear after my being in Wednesday's practice or Thursday's practice limited today. That feels like an uphill battle to him for him to actually clear that one. So the coin flip game, you're giving me Jim Harbaugh and Justin Herbert against Jameis Winston and Kevin Stefanski. Like Stefanski have a lot of respect for Jameis. You get the up the highs, you get the lows. Like last week was the highs. I think this week might be the lows. Like he's always begging to throw the football to the other team. I think the chargers, we can get them not really in a buy low spot or anything like that. But I just think that a coin flip game, this is probably priced appropriately. I'm going to go ahead and back the better quarterback.

[24:12] Also, plus three, I think a good bet to make with the Jets taking on the Buffalo Bills. [24:17] Because we've seen now, over the last couple of weeks, Buffalo's offense, I don't want to say has gotten exposed, because I hate that word. [24:24] But, like, it kind of has. [24:26] Like, they can't fool people anymore. [24:28] Like, the scheme and all that stuff, teams have caught up to what they're trying to do. [24:31] And now with the absence of like a number one alpha wide receiver, it's hard for them to get like an explosive and efficient passing game. [24:38] So I think this Jets defense who played really well against Minnesota. [24:42] Like I know like the Jefferson pass interference penalties and Jefferson still had like 90 yards. [24:46] But for the most part, they bottled him up. [24:48] And like their secondary is actually really, really good. [24:50] I think that this is going to be a close lower scoring game. [24:53] Like the unders getting bet. [24:54] It was 44 now 41 and a half. [24:56] But also the Jets got bet. [24:57] I bet some plus three earlier today. [24:59] It's now two and a half. [25:00] That obviously helps nobody. [25:01] But this could be an interesting teaser leg if you're looking to tease in week six. [25:05] Because getting the Jets up to eight and a half, I don't see the Bills running them off the field in this game. [25:10] Not at home. [25:10] Not in one of those backs against the wall kind of spots. [25:13] So I like the Jets in the game despite Rodgers coming into this thing with a banged up ankle. [25:17] Salah says he's good. [25:18] I'm not sure how much of his word is worth anything since they had the whole cadence thing last week. [25:22] But I'm assuming Rodgers will be healthy enough to play in this game.

“[1:57:34] Plugged in over there in South Bend, Indiana. [1:57:36] I don't like the side with this game because the side, I think, is just right. [1:57:40] Like, this should be around a touchdown. [1:57:42] I could see it go either way. [1:57:43] Like, Freeman, when has he ever kind of pooped his pants on the sidelines [1:57:46] and let a team walk into the building and win the game? [1:57:48] And also, we've also seen him against Purdue run a team off the field. [1:57:52] So I think the side is just fine. [1:57:53] I think that the under is where you want to go with this game. [1:57:56] Like, see, it opened 47 and a half. [1:57:58] There's some 46 and a halves out there, but 46 is the main number that's out there. [1:58:02] Bet MGM has a 45 and a half. [1:58:04] I think directionally that's correct because I'm concerned about this Notre Dame offensive line. [1:58:08] And we talked about this during the Femi and Friends Hour, 3 or 4 p.m. Eastern, about how Notre Dame last week against Miami of Ohio and against Northern Illinois, like at least they had the advantage clearly in the trenches. [1:58:20] And I think they will have the advantage on Saturday. [1:58:22] But is it going to be as big when you're going up against a group of five versus a power four team? [1:58:26] And like Louisville, they're not known for being like some like awesome defensive line school or some offensive line school. [1:58:32] but they at least have power for caliber guys up front in the trenches. [1:58:35] And if Notre Dame can't dominate that part of the game, [1:58:39] I don't know if they can win by a possession or multiple possessions. [1:58:42] So I get concerned of how they're going to score. [1:58:44] Cause like Tyler mentioned, [1:58:45] Riley Leonard is terrible at throwing the football. [1:58:47] He's just a running quarterback. [1:58:49] He's like Alex or G plus is what Tyler was, [1:58:52] what a Riley Leonard is essentially. [1:58:53] So for me, [1:58:54] I would go under 46 and think that this is gonna be a lower scoring game. [1:58:58] Cause I do trust Notre Dame's defense in the game. [1:59:00] So I think we're not going to get that many points. [1:59:02] And whoever wins the game, I'm guessing it's going to be Notre Dame, but I think it'll be ugly.”

[2:57:07] They had no answer for it [2:57:08] with Lamar Jackson. [2:57:09] I'm not saying Daniel Jones, [2:57:10] Lamar Jackson, [2:57:10] but Daniel Jones is a really good athlete. [2:57:12] He's like a really good athlete [2:57:13] and can run the football [2:57:14] over 31 and a half. [2:57:16] Also with Michael Parsons [2:57:17] getting pressure, [2:57:17] I could see him scrambling [2:57:18] for like a first down [2:57:19] and all that stuff.

[2:08:14] It's a pretty good setup for Garrett Nussmeyer. [2:08:16] If you want to go ahead and announce himself as a Heisman Trophy candidate, [2:08:19] probably not going to be in this game. [2:08:21] Probably have to be when they actually pick on some SEC teams. [2:08:23] But for me, it'd actually be the over in this game. [2:08:25] I think LSU might be able to clear this by themselves, this total right now sitting at 56. [2:08:31] LSU's defense is not that great. [2:08:33] Now, UCLA is terrible on offense and defense as well, but LSU's defense will go at blow coverage. [2:08:37] They'll do those things. [2:08:38] They're just not a sound defense. [2:08:40] But I think offensively, I agree with everything that Tyler had to say. [2:08:42] They're going to be humming along. [2:08:43] Garrett Nussmeyer is going to pick that defense apart. [2:08:45] Like I said, LSU might be able to clear this by themselves, this total. [2:08:49] So I'm going to go over 56. [2:08:51] 56 and a half might get a little bit tricky because now you need more than eight touchdowns. [2:08:54] but over 56 for me between UCLA and LSU.”

[2:53:56] It's 227 and a half over at the Sportsbook Board in Vegas, minus 115. [2:54:00] I think that Hurts, given the fact that his favorite target is not in this game, [2:54:04] that being A.J. Brown, maybe he holds on the ball a little bit longer. [2:54:07] I kind of like the rushing attempts over, but that's a big number. [2:54:09] It's like 10 and a half for Hurts to have. [2:54:11] I can see a lot of scrambles. [2:54:12] I can see him maybe checking it down to someone like Goddard. [2:54:15] Maybe they're getting Saquon Barkley involved in the passing game, [2:54:17] and that's not going for down the field numbers.

[28:11] They're in the premier afternoon game this Sunday. [28:13] They're on Sunday Night Football next Sunday. [28:15] They're going to have a lot of attention on them.

[1:33:35] Do you have a thought on this game early in the week? [1:33:36] Let's not waste time. [1:33:37] I like Miami. [1:33:38] I bet Miami in this game. [1:33:39] One and a half are out there. [1:33:41] I laid two. [1:33:42] I didn't really realize that this was all about the Josh Allen news. [1:33:44] I was like, hey, like, you know what? [1:33:45] Things are going to happen. [1:33:46] We're going to find out his status a little bit later on. [1:33:48] But clearly the move earlier this morning was about Josh Allen. [1:33:50] Now that that came back, that he's fine. [1:33:52] It's now one and a half. [1:33:53] But I think this is a good spot for the Miami Dolphins at home on a short week. [1:33:56] I think yesterday's game for Miami was more about Jacksonville. [1:33:59] And I've talked a lot about this Jacksonville defense. [1:34:01] I told you in the sports book yesterday, I was like, I've talked of this defense so much. [1:34:05] And here I am betting the over. [1:34:06] And that didn't come through, although there was a couple of missed touchdowns in that game that were a little bit tilting for me. [1:34:10] But I think it was more about that Jags defensive line. [1:34:13] Buffalo doesn't have that. [1:34:14] Gregory Rousseau is a really nice player. [1:34:15] They don't have Trayvon Walker, Joshua Hines Allen. [1:34:18] Eric Armstead, all these big, long days that are really going to get into his face. [1:34:22] I think that this is a bad matchup for Buffalo. [1:34:24] And on the flip side of it, Buffalo's defense was not impressed with what I saw yesterday. [1:34:29] I know Kyler Murray is a way better athlete than Tua Everdreams could be. [1:34:32] But still, the weapons in Miami are a lot better than what the Cardinals have.

“[1:47:03] All right, let's continue quick picks here, guys. [1:47:06] Jaguars and the Browns in Jacksonville. [1:47:08] And I mentioned at the start of the hour, Mike Flory of Pro Football Talk reporting a new lawsuit with similar allegations to the other ones, [1:47:14] which I'm not trying to minimize just in the interest of time here on a betting show. [1:47:18] Like, I don't know if that impacts Deshaun Watson for Sunday, impacts him for the rest of the season. [1:47:23] I don't know if like Jameis Winston's going to play in this game. [1:47:25] We have incomplete info right now. [1:47:27] But as it stands here, Jacksonville, a four point favorite against the Browns, 41 and a half the total. [1:47:32] This is a bet that I've made, and it's with the Cleveland Browns taking the four. [1:47:35] I've spoke glowingly of the Jacksonville defense. [1:47:38] I think the Jacksonville defense is going to have a lot of success in this game. [1:47:40] That's why you've seen the under get bet 44 and a half now down to as low as 41 and a half in this game. [1:47:45] But I like both of these defenses in this spot. [1:47:47] I think this is just a little bit too much. [1:47:49] Like when it's three or less than a field goal, that makes sense in terms of the Jacksonville Jaguars. [1:47:54] But once you get to like four, that's where it's a little bit too much. [1:47:57] So I'm going to go ahead and back the Cleveland Browns off of what's probably going to be a tumultuous week with them. [1:48:01] Everybody saw what happened this past Sunday.

[1:51:34] What is there to be excited about? [1:51:35] That franchise, there might be more Giants fans there than our Commanders fans. [1:51:38] No, there won't be. [1:51:40] Do you think Giants fans are excited to make this? [1:51:41] Do the Commanders have a new quarterback? [1:51:43] Dan Snyder's out. [1:51:44] I think they're going to be excited for this game. [1:51:46] Maybe they will be, but they're not going to be excited after the end of it [1:51:49] when the Giants win.

[25:04] I also think that this offense might catch the Packers off guard a little bit just because [25:07] we haven't seen Kellen Moore with Jalen Hurts. [25:09] So I like the Eagles angle. [25:11] And on the other side, the Packers, it's been hit or miss for them in the first half of some [25:15] of these regular season openers. [25:16] In 2019, they led against the Chicago Bears 7-3. [25:19] 2020 they led 22 to 10 against minnesota but in 2021 they trailed 17 to 3 against new orleans [25:25] 2022 they trailed 17 nothing against minnesota and then last year they led 10 to 6 against the [25:31] chicago bears so i like the eagles in the first half i think they start fast as for the full game [25:36] your bets as good as mine uh i don't know what's going to happen in the full game but eagles first [25:40] half for me alex give me the next story all right and really quick jaden reed i kept you in the 17th”

17-19 — Green Bay led Philadelphia 19-17 at halftime (Q1 6-0, Q2 13-17 cumulative), so the Eagles first-half -0.5 lost (ESPN box score).

“[11:14] Miami, minus 3.25. [11:15] So again, just like Atlanta, in between [11:17] 3 and 3.5. Total Femi [11:19] of 49 I don think we have we do have one significant piece of injury news in this game Jalen Ramsey just got a billion dollars guaranteed I might not play on Sunday He listed as questionable with I believe a hamstring injury [11:32] Obviously, if he doesn't play, I mean, it makes you feel even better about potentially the over of this game. [11:35] So anything for you, my friend here with Jacksonville and Miami Dolphins will be without rookie receiver Malik Washington. [11:41] It's a lean for me on the side. [11:43] Three minus one. [11:43] I'm really starting to consider Miami. [11:45] But this Ramsey injury is a concern for that regard. [11:48] But because of that Ramsey injury, it's a bet to be over. [11:51] I bet over 48 and a half. [11:52] There's still one out there. [11:53] 49 is a consensus number. [11:55] I still think you can go over 49. [11:57] Both of these offenses are going to find some success, especially if Jalen Ramsey is out. [12:01] Now we're talking about Ramsey and Bradley Chubb. [12:03] Jalen Phillips likely on some kind of a pitch count coming off of the Achilles injury. [12:07] I think Trevor Lawrence and that Jags offense that has been criticized for not pushing the ball down the field. [12:11] Lawrence's yards per attempt is always on the lower end compared to the other quarterbacks in the NFL. [12:16] I think that changes this year. [12:17] Brian Thomas Jr., the rookie, he's going to have a big game, I think, as well. [12:20] And I think that offensive line is better, which will allow him to push the ball down the field. [12:24] And then I just absolutely love this Miami Dolphins offense. [12:27] Mike McDaniel will have new wrinkles to a competent quarterback, led the league in passing. [12:31] I think he picks up right where he left off in the regular season. [12:34] Tyree kill a big weapon for that team. I think we see a lot of points in South and conflicting views on the Jalen Ramsey injury. [12:40] I've heard some people say and I've read some read some people tweet that because the Dolphins play on Thursday night in week two against the Bills, [12:46] that they'll hold Jalen Ramsey out to make sure he's good to go, [12:49] not just because the Buffalo game's more important, [12:51] but because increased injury risk playing a couple days later, [12:54] and other people saying, well, now he signed his contract, [12:56] so his hamstring's automatically going to be better. [12:57] So we'll see. [12:58] Over in the game for me, whether Ramsey plays or not,”

[22:35] Calamity Gannon and the Redbirds total. [22:38] This is fascinating. [22:39] Total is 47 and a half and juiced to the under 47. [22:43] One of the key numbers that we talk about betting totals here and that move in concordance with the favorite. [22:49] And you said this on the show yesterday. [22:50] You're right. [22:51] Normally favorite and overcorporate. [22:53] In this game, we think favorite and under might be correlated because I don't know what the case is that Arizona wins or covers a game that goes under the total. [23:00] I'm starting to think that Arizona might be the dead dog walking that everyone seems to be. [23:04] And Buffalo is just going to say Buffalo's going to say I don't disagree. [23:07] I think I'm going to lay six and a half in this game. [23:09] I think I'm going to lay it just because if I think it's right. [23:13] If Josh Allen is as good as I think he is, I think that Josh Allen is one of three best quarterbacks in the league. [23:17] How in the world is this defense going to stop? [23:19] I don't care if he's throwing to Keon Coleman or Derek Coleman and the NBA. [23:22] Like he's going to go ahead and have a big game. [23:26] And I think that their defense will be good enough to work. [23:28] The back door will probably be open and that will be sweaty Sunday afternoon. [23:31] But I'm going to lay the six and a half of Buffalo. [23:33] My decision is at 47, how much money do I want to bet on the over if it gets there?”

“[42:21] environment down there in brazil so i like the packers getting a field goal if you can find it [42:26] wherever you do your betting the the game that we came back with on the rejoin was the rematch of [42:31] the rams and the lions wild card game that we saw last year in the playoffs and it looks like we [42:36] could be heading towards three with the Detroit Lions. There's still three and a half as a [42:40] consensus number. The total sitting at 51, a lot of points expected. I believe that might be the [42:45] highest total that we have this week. One, the Dolphins Jaguars game might be the second highest [42:50] one with the Colts and Texans right behind that. But if we get a field goal, I love the Lions. [42:55] And this is coming from somebody who's a part of the Ramily. I'm in the Ramily. I love the Rams [43:00] this year to win the NFC West. I like them as a team to win the NFC and ultimately maybe lose to [43:04] someone like Kansas City in the Super Bowl. I'm all in on the Rams, but at some point there has to [43:10] be value on the Detroit Lions, and this is what the Rams having some injuries up front on the [43:16] offensive line. Larry Jackson, their stud left tackle, he's suspended for this game, not coming [43:20] back, I believe, until week two or week three. I just love the spot for the Lions. That crowd's [43:25] going to be absolutely fired up, and when you look at that roster up and down from both sides of the [43:30] ball on the trenches, the receivers, they've bolstered the secondary. Dan Campbell's an aggressive [43:34] front-facing head coach. [43:36] I think the Detroit Lions are going to put up a lot of points. [43:38] I think they make a statement Sunday night. [43:40] So if you ever get a three in that one, I think the Lions are the play. [43:43] And then the game that we've talked about quite a bit over the course of these past two weeks, [43:48] I'm sure we're going to talk about a little bit more later on in this show, [43:51] the New York Jets and the San Francisco 49ers. [43:54] For me, once again, as I said in the last segment, that is a look towards the under. [43:59] Primetime unders tend to do well early on in the season. [44:02] but I just am a little bit skeptical of the Jets' offense,”

[2:47:54] I took Aaron Rodgers. [2:47:57] Whatever's going on happening in Bengals, hashtag stink. [2:47:59] So I don't want any part of that. [2:48:00] So let's go Aaron Rodgers. [2:48:02] All right, so Rodgers for Tyler. [2:48:03] Jake, 10 seconds, comeback player of the year. [2:48:06] Yeah, I'm also going Rodgers. [2:48:08] I like Rodgers too. [2:48:10] I will say if I had to go outside of Rodgers, [2:48:12] I think it's going to be, [2:48:13] and I'm curious what Brad thinks about this, [2:48:15] and I'm sure he'll talk about this all week this week on the show, [2:48:18] is getting you set for fantasy, prop betting, et cetera. [2:48:20] I think J.K. Dobbins will emerge as the Chargers' number one running back this year. [2:48:25] Not Gus Edwards, not the rookie Kamani Vidal. [2:48:28] Dobbins is 20-1. [2:48:29] Just saying. [2:48:30] J.K. Dobbins, 20-1, comeback player of the year. [2:48:33] But also, give me Aaron Rodgers to win this award. [2:48:36] Okay. [2:48:37] Now, we will cross streams.”

“What else do you like, PJ? So I'm fading my Ravens this year, Femi. I'm going under 10 and a half wins. Probably no surprise to our guy Grant there in Chicago. But I'm down on the Ravens this year. I think it's going to be a tough year for them because of all the change that they have on both sides of the ball. Offensively, they got to replace three of their starting offensive linemen. And their depth at receiver isn't all that great. As much as I love me some Lamar, he has been injured two of the last three seasons. So he's got to prove to me that he can stay healthy for another year. Defensively, I'm a little concerned too, Femi, because they lose one of the best, probably the best defensive coordinator in Mike McDonald. And Zach Orr takes over, who's been in the organization for a number of years as a player and as a coach, but he's only 32 years old. And being the defensive coordinator, they lose guys at all three levels. They lose Clowney, they lose Patrick Queen, they lose Geno Stone in the secondary. And, you know, just the way that the AFC North goes and how tough of a division that this is, you know, it's usually like a changing of the guard consistently. You know, the Ravens won it last year. That's why I like Cleveland a lot this year or think Cincinnati could win the division. So they got a first place schedule on paper. They have one of the top three toughest schedules in football. I think the Ravens are like a 9-10 win team this year. I think they get in as a wild card team in the AFC. Don't hate their price either to miss the playoffs. You want to take a stab there, but I like their under 10 and a half wins. While you were talking about the Ravens, I fully agree with you, so I'm not going to spend much time on that. I was shopping Bears missed the playoff prices. Best I could find in Vegas, minus 115, which I am going to bet, because even at that price, that's incredible. But I 100% agree with you on the Ravens. I actually share that same bet. I bet that earlier this offseason, so we don't have to spend too much time on that. Another one that I do like, and maybe we can talk about this a little bit later in our number two,”

“is in this week one, is the over in that Texans-Colts game. We've talked about that a little bit. It's 48-and-a-half. 49 is the consensus number. I still like it at that price going over that number. I think both of these offenses are going to be terrific. If Richardson is as good as everybody says he is, the Colts are going to be able to put up points. I think that the Houston Texans passing game against that Indianapolis secondary secondary might be one of the bigger mismatches in week one like that cold secondary is shaky it's not a lot back there on that back end and gus bradley's not really reinventing the wheel from a schematic standpoint defensively he's still playing that pete carroll seattle three that the entire league is sort of figured out and honestly what got pete carroll fired in seattle so i do like the over in that game that's another one of those like i i like the over because i don't want to lay the two and a half with houston on the road especially with it being a divisional game so i'd rather go ahead and bet the over another one that i i don't i've not bet this game yet pj”

“[13:39] I'm laying it with Georgia. [13:40] While everybody was explaining what they were betting, [13:42] I was firing in Georgia laying 12 against Clemson on a neutral field. [13:47] Semi-neutral field is how we should put it [13:48] since it's being played at Athens West in Atlanta. [13:52] Everybody talks about Dabo Sweeney as an underdog.

[14:03] And in fact, Kirby Smart has lost just two non-conference games [14:07] since becoming the head coach at Georgia in 2016. [14:11] Like this team will be rolling from Jump Street. [14:14] We've seen them absolutely demolish teams in this spot. [14:17] That Oregon game comes to mind for me. [14:19] And one thing I love about Georgia, Carson Beck is back. [14:22] We have that. [14:23] But they are deep on that offensive line. [14:24] They return four or five starters up front, and there's going to be some suspensions and all that stuff. [14:29] But like Tyler mentioned, Georgia's going to put in another five-star running back to go ahead and play for them. [14:34] So Georgia, I think, rolls Clemson right off the field. [14:37] Big statement from the Dawgs as they try to march towards a national title this season. [14:41] Then later on in College Station, this is one that is not yet a bet for me, but I'm closely monitoring right now, [14:48] is Notre Dame, if they can get to three and a half.

[2:20:44] I'm just making sure that that's right. [2:20:45] My brain is, yeah. [2:20:48] I think there have been some pretty good opportunities this week. [2:20:55] To be fair, not all of them have hit. [2:20:56] I loved the Padres yesterday. [2:20:58] It didn't hit. [2:20:58] Royals a couple days ago was a good one. [2:21:00] I think this might be my favorite first five bet this week, [2:21:04] and it's in this Blue Jays-Red Sox game. [2:21:07] Jake, are you aware, and I know the answer is yes [2:21:10] because you're obsessed with baseball, [2:21:11] aware of what Bowden Francis has been doing for the Toronto Blue Jays. [2:21:16] I didn't even know who he was until today. [2:21:18] And then I'm looking at his like what he's done recently in the month of August, 27 and a third innings pitched 13 total base runners, 34 strikeouts. [2:21:29] Why are like we collectively as a people not talking about Bowden Francis for Toronto? [2:21:34] Yeah, this also includes a start where he took a no hitter into the ninth inning in his last start against the Angels [2:21:39] and then blew it on a solo home run to taylor ward so yeah i mean he's been really good but i [2:21:45] what i like to do especially after a performance like that that he had last saturday i'm gonna [2:21:50] fade him natural aggression baby it has to happen especially against the red sox team that's seen [2:21:54] him so i i think the end of the line comes here for boat and francis sorry but see ya great well i We can go mano here I can be wrong Hopefully I right Blue Jays first five plus 105 against that jabroni Cutter Crawford [2:22:08] We throw some cutters down the middle of the plate and get taken out over the green monster. [2:22:12] Blue Jays plus 105 first five. [2:22:14] That is my best bet for tonight. [2:22:15] Absolutely love. [2:22:16] A couple others. [2:22:17] I will go again mano-i-mano against Jake here with Brady Singer, Stevenson. [2:22:22] Give me Hunter Brown and the Houston Astros tonight. [2:22:25] First five, minus a half, minus 115. [2:22:27] Astros first five against the Kansas City Royals. [2:22:30] And then, like Jake's right, Maury's son, Cade Povich is brutal. [2:22:35] But Bobby Miller is also brutal. [2:22:37] So when we have two bad pitchers and two pretty good offenses, [2:22:41] I'll take a shot on the Orioles' first five and plus money against the Dodgers. [2:22:45] Or, again, just like both pitchers are bad and give up runs, [2:22:48] so let me take plus money here with a good offense. [2:22:53] Orioles first five plus 120. [2:22:54] Maybe Kate Povich could pitch well. [2:22:56] We'll get to play a Joe Davis highlight on the show at some point for Kate Povich for the Baltimore Orioles. [2:23:00] So my three baseball bets, game bets. [2:23:02] Blue Jays first five. [2:23:04] Astros first five minus a half minus 15. [2:23:06] Orioles first five plus 120 on the road at the L.A. Dodgers. [2:23:10] All right. [2:23:11] You better you bet Kostos and the Gamblers. [2:23:12] Those are the baseball bets for tonight. [2:23:14] Game bets.

[2:23:21] Jake the Snake, get us started here with the winner. [2:23:23] Matt Pisani with the bonus bet will go last. [2:23:27] Yeah, you mentioned that bum, Cutter Crawford. [2:23:29] So I'm going with a Toronto Blue Jay tonight. [2:23:32] I'm going with Vlad Jr. [2:23:33] The price is insane, 5-1. [2:23:35] 14 home runs in 96 games in the first half. [2:23:38] Now has 13 in 37 games in the second half. [2:23:42] Oh, by the way, hitting 413 in the second half. [2:23:44] Guy remembered that he's really good and the son of a Hall of Famer. [2:23:48] so he's also four for nine against Crawford who serves him up so I'll take Vlad Jr. as my home [2:23:53] run entry into the home run parlay all right so first up Vlad Jr. uh apparently that Femi liked [2:23:59] him so yeah I still have to scramble heartbreak as I was saying it I'll scramble real quick we'll [2:24:06] figure it out also I'll filibuster give Femi a little bit of time because Femi typed this in [2:24:11] the chat and he was correct to do so because it's a missed opportunity by me to lead into the home [2:24:15] run parlay by saying it's time for us to meet the moment read the room and leave the yard tyler [2:24:21] morales up next and i think we have fixed tyler's like audio visual problems here tyler who is your [2:24:25] entrant into the home run parlay following jake's pickup vlad jr yeah vegas is trying to keep me [2:24:31] down because i'm gonna kill him with this colorado game all right so i have a home run bet in this uh [2:24:35] in this phillies game this is probably gonna be a popular bet everywhere kyle schwarber has owned [2:24:40] charlie morton in his career a lot of these phillies actually have owned him in his career [2:24:43] and I think there could be a home run derby here for the Phillies who desperately need it. [2:24:48] So let's go Kyle Schwarber plus 390. [2:24:49] I can't remember the last time his price was that low. [2:24:52] So let's go Kyle Schwarber to hit a home run off of his boy Charlie Morin. [2:24:55] So I will not have this player in the home run parlay. [2:24:59] I have somebody else, but I am betting Trea Turner to homer tonight in that same game. [2:25:03] So I do have Trea Turner to home run tonight, Tyler with Kyle Schwarber. [2:25:06] So Vlad Jr. [2:25:07] So these are the two great names so far. [2:25:09] Vlad Jr., Kyle Schwarber. [2:25:12] Femi, do you need a little bit more time? [2:25:13] I can go and Pisani can go and we can buy you a little more time here. [2:25:16] Are you ready? [2:25:17] I'm ready. [2:25:18] I'm ready. [2:25:19] I hope I'm not stealing anybody's guy. [2:25:20] But I joke that this guy has been on a milk carton since the All-Star break. [2:25:24] But I do think that he's going to go ahead and have a nice night against Bobby Miller. [2:25:28] Let's go Gunnar Henderson, plus 500, over at BetMGM. [2:25:32] He's hitting the ball hard. [2:25:33] He's just not getting the homer. [2:25:34] So I think Gunnar does it tonight at Dodger Stadium against LA. [2:25:38] So I would be very happy if that happened. [2:25:41] A, because I bet the Orioles first five, so that would be really great. [2:25:45] And B, if I hit also, it would definitely mean, not definitely, but probably will win my bet [2:25:51] because I also have a Baltimore Oriole Femi in the home run parlay for tonight. [2:25:55] And I'm going to go to a guy that I bet yesterday who, like, had a couple hits in yesterday's game. [2:26:00] Give me Ramon Urias. [2:26:04] Not my Rias. [2:26:05] Not our Rias. [2:26:07] But your Rias. [2:26:09] Ramon Urias to Homer tonight. [2:26:11] for the Baltimore Orioles. [2:26:13] So the four of us, and then we'll get the bonus pick from Pisani in a moment. [2:26:18] Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Kyle Schwarber, Gunnar Henderson, Ramon Urias. [2:26:23] My bonus pick is Trea Turner. [2:26:25] I'll be betting Trea Turner separately from the home run parlay. [2:26:27] And now for the bonus pick. [2:26:29] One day, after being the only member of the crew to pick a winner with Brent Rooker, [2:26:34] Matt Pisani steps up to the plate to try to meet the moment. [2:26:38] Read the room. [2:26:40] You get it. [2:26:41] well i was gonna initially go with bryce harper but you being on trey turner and kyle shorbert [2:26:49] already being in the parlay it makes me a little bit nervous but i'm gonna keep riding with it [2:26:52] it's plus 550 for one of the best hitters on the planet and he has really good history against [2:26:57] charlie morton as jake said in his baseball bet so give me bryce harper plus 550 okay so [2:27:03] pasani worth noting one for one the only little member of the crew who was one for one in his [2:27:07] last one home run bets given out on you better you bet that's how we do sports betting right [2:27:11] you win your one for your last one uh vlad jr kyle schwarber Gunnar Henderson ramon urias and [2:27:17] bryce harper so we have two phillies a blue jay and two orioles uh coming up tonight so hopefully [2:27:22] those games are all really good um 5546 to one for the five for the five man home run parlay [2:27:28] generational wealth feeding families forever okay uh those are the bets for tonight uh oh let's do [2:27:35] our best bets here quickly alex tell us where we stand right now three days into the week [2:27:39] all right on day three the updated standings are as follows tyler and femi are both sitting at two [2:27:47] and one jake and nick you guys are one and two all right so we're gonna have to like really i [2:27:54] really like this gimmick of the best bets there needs to be a tiebreaker at the end of the week [2:27:59] what is it and we have to figure out some kind of like listener viewer involvement in the power [2:28:04] hour so let's think about that collectively as a group over the weekend uh yeah maybe tyler we [2:28:10] tabulate like the longest odds of everyone yeah all the bets that were put in well yeah like let's [2:28:14] let's figure this out because i think we're on to something here and we can make this really good [2:28:17] starting as early as next week uh so jake best bet for tonight your one favorite bet is what [2:28:23] my one favorite bet is going to be bryce harper over one and a half total bases is playing really [2:28:28] well has great history against charlie moore not going to overthink it tyler morales does not have [2:28:33] to be baseball. Yeah, we're [2:28:35] going to go with our guy, Omarion Hampton, over [2:28:37] whatever number you can find. I'm seeing [2:28:39] numbers everywhere. So I see [2:28:41] 98.5. So let's go Omarion Hampton [2:28:43] over 98.5 rushing yards. He plays for North [2:28:45] Carolina. Okay, Omarion [2:28:47] Hampton over 98.5 rushing yards. I'm going [2:28:49] to bet that during the break. Femi, your one bet [2:28:51] for tonight is? Best bet? [2:28:53] Philly's first five against the Braves, [2:28:55] not the Astros. They're playing the Braves. First five [2:28:57] minus 150.”

“[37:21] one thing you always have to keep in mind is that the oddsmakers are just trying to make their best guess possible of what the voters are going to do Just because Skeens was minus 6 doesn mean that there value now with him at plus 120 [37:32] It just means that now it's probably a little bit closer to right since we're now closer to when the votes are actually due, which is five weeks from now. [37:39] So I think as it stands, Jacksonville at minus 165, I think that price is off. [37:45] I've been betting it over the past 12 hours or so. [37:48] I've bet some Merrill at minus 170. [37:50] I bet it out to minus 190 at some places. [37:53] Minus 165 over at BetMGM, I think, is cheap. [37:56] And Jake Hassan, our board op, he's with us hanging out here.

[1:27:36] But why I like this setup, though, for Alex Orji at Michigan is that he is an unknown commodity.

[1:27:46] Quinn Ewers, Milrow, Dart, Gabriel, those prices aren't going to move much in the first few weeks of the season. [1:27:52] Once they get playing those big conference games, then those prices will move. [1:27:56] But I'm looking for the guy that the price is like, whoa, we did not expect him to be that good. [1:28:00] Okay, instead of being 100 to 1, maybe he needs to be like 20 to 1 or 30 to 1. [1:28:05] I think that can be Alex Orge because he does have a big game in week two as they host the Texas Longhorns against Quinn Ewers, [1:28:12] who is among the Heisman Trophy favorites. [1:28:13] So I like this spot for Michigan, just given the fact that Michigan plays a majority of their difficult games in Ann Arbor, whether it's Texas, USC, Oregon, Ohio State, all four of those games will be at home for Michigan.”
