Transcript

00:02 - Northern Illinois, we saw last week,
00:07 the Mac is a very flaky conference
00:09 in which you know, throw the records out.
00:11 It's a week by week thing.
00:12 It's a game by game operation.
00:14 I've checked the weather for all Mac locations.
00:17 It doesn't seem to be a factor at all tonight,
00:19 but you look at this Ball State team,
00:21 they're actually four and five against the spread.
00:23 All right, they're two and seven.
00:24 Northern Illinois are four and five against the spread.
00:27 You really trust Northern Illinois
00:28 to win by this many points?
00:30 I don't.
00:31 Their offense isn't built to blow anybody out.
00:34 You know, if they're gonna win,
00:35 they like to win games 23-10 type of deal.
00:38 You know, we're getting basically 10 points,
00:40 nine and a half points in this game.
00:42 I like Ball State.
00:43 Central Michigan and Western Michigan
00:45 actually is a rivalry game, Carver.
00:47 Right, they don't like each other.
00:48 It's one of those, this is a fun, it is a real rivalry.
00:52 It's been kind of one-sided over the years
00:55 with Western Michigan,
00:56 but they're not very good this year, Western Michigan.
00:59 And I think this Chippewa team
01:01 is better than people give them credit for.
01:02 I think we got a really live dog in this one, Carver,
01:05 with Central Michigan.
01:07 And then finally, in closing, speaking,
01:10 I think I know why people at Buffalo don't support the Bulls
01:12 'cause they kind of suck and they break your heart
01:14 like the Bills do.
01:15 (laughing)
01:16 They kind of do.
01:18 Like they always find a way late.
01:19 You're like, "Oh God, they didn't cover.
01:21 They were about to cover and they didn't.
01:23 Ah, give me the Buffalo Bulls tonight."
01:25 And I tell you, I think though these totals are too light.
01:28 I don't like that the insanely high one here
01:30 with the 57 and a half. - Real light totals.
01:32 - But I'm gonna go over to 43 and a half
01:34 at Northern Illinois and Ball State, Carver,
01:35 and I'm gonna go over the number at Ohio and Buffalo.
01:37 Weather's not a factor, bro.
