00:00 I don't know what to do to with Kentucky and LSU.
00:07 It's another one where I think there's going to be a lot of points, but then again, isn't
00:11 Kentucky supposed to have found their defensive chops here?
00:16 I think they're better than LSU.
00:18 They should win this game, but they should have won all the games that they lost so far
00:23 this year.
00:24 Right.
00:25 So they get the victory over Auburn over the weekend, right?
00:27 So that's a gutty win.
00:28 They got to follow it up in a very tough environment.
00:31 And even though LSU is terrible, they did not go off South Carolina about a week ago.
00:36 It's back to back road games and I'm still not sold on Coach Cal on the road.
00:41 So this line again has me inclined to take the Tigers.
00:44 LSU and Kentucky and basketball is like a rivalry as well.
00:48 So I'm going to take the Tigers.
00:49 I'm going to take a shot.
00:50 I mean, I don't love it, but I think LSU can play them tough.
00:55 Yeah.
00:57 It's a classic SEC battle here, but all right, Kentucky, show us something here, right?
01:03 We keep hearing about it.
01:04 Nice, impressive win against Auburn.
01:07 Let's see what you've got here.
01:10 And there's also clearly a difference between Marquette and DePaul.
01:14 One is an actual college basketball team.
01:17 The other is a JV high school team.
01:21 That's pretty much what you're getting from DePaul these days.
01:23 Am I crazy?
01:25 Like I laid the 26 here, Joe, because DePaul's not going to keep up with Marquette and Marquette's
01:31 pace will allow them to score enough, to have enough possessions and enough points to blow
01:36 out the ball.
01:38 If that game was at DePaul, I'd say maybe, you know, you take the home dog with the 27
01:42 and a half.
01:43 The fact that they're on the road in Marquette with almost 30 points staring you in the face,
01:49 it's like they're begging you to take the 30.
01:52 So if I had, I'm not going to bet that game, Joe, but if I had to, I would probably lay
01:56 the 26 and a half 27.
01:59 So we do have, how about Oklahoma State, my Cowboys who pulled a stunning upset over the
02:06 weekend.
02:07 They got to go on a road now, take on Cincinnati.
02:10 Welcome to the big 12, Cincy.
02:13 Can I tell you, kind of feel like maybe an over in this spot too, or are you liking a
02:19 side in this one?
02:20 I don't think Cincinnati should be favored by double digits over anybody, to be honest
02:24 with you.
02:25 So I know Oklahoma State on the road has had problems scoring.
02:29 I lean to the over with you, but I'm going to take the 10 and a half.
02:32 The one that I do like on there, and I banged the under at one 51 and a half last night
02:37 with St. John's Georgetown.
02:39 The fact that Patino called out the team, if you're going to get any type of response
02:43 on the defensive side of the ball, it's got to be tonight, right?
02:46 If they're going to respond, it has to be tonight.
02:49 If not, then they're never going to do it.
02:51 So the fact that they're now I got, I think it's one 51.
02:55 I took it last night, but I think it's still around one 49, one 50.
02:59 I like the under tonight.
03:01 Yeah.
03:02 And by the way, what in the hell happened to Memphis?
03:07 This team has got more.
03:08 This is a G league team.
03:10 I mean, literally the kind of talent they have there and they can't win games and they're
03:15 probably not winning tonight against Charlotte.
03:17 Yeah, I took them.
03:18 I took a minus four and a half.
03:19 It's a light line.
03:20 They were laying 10 and a half to everybody else, right?
03:24 Wichita state and all those things.
03:26 Now you got half that.
03:27 They suck it home.
03:29 They are a good team.
03:30 They just haven't put it together.
03:32 I took them.
03:33 I put them in a parlay.
03:34 I took, I took Miami, Memphis and the under in St. John's as a parlay.
03:39 No, I don't hate that either.
03:42 Listen, I keep waiting for him to flip that switch because that team is so talented.
03:47 It's crazy here.
03:48 Nebraska at Indiana.
03:50 Also another game coming up in the big 10 here tonight at Indiana.
