00:00The early games. Alabama heading north, Scotty, up to Madtown to see Wisconsin.
00:12It's a noon east kickoff on Saturday. Minus 16 and a half for Bama at this point.
00:19What else do we have? LSU, they are a road favorite into South Carolina to see them.
00:25Boston College at Missouri, heavy number here. Minus 15 and a half in Columbia.
00:31Oregon laying 16 and a half. They're splashing around with the Beavers in Corvallis here, Scotty, this week.
00:38And Notre Dame, off the embarrassing loss at home to Northern Illinois, heads to West Lafayette to see the Boilermakers tomorrow.
00:47All right, so if I could, you know, obviously I can't see that board at this point, but I'm going to say this.
00:54Look, some of those numbers now, it's really hard for me to see it. I'll be honest with you.
00:58So I'm going to throw this your way. I remember you said that there it is.
01:02So Bama is 16 and a half. I think it's too many points.
01:07I think Alabama wins that game at Camp Randall, but I mean, they struggled with South Florida in Tuscaloosa.
01:15They ran away from them late, but they were literally in a problem in that game.
01:20The game that I think stands out to me on the board is this first rack is LSU.
01:25I think they go to Columbia and put a beating on the Gamecocks. I really do.
01:31I think Missouri will hand O'Brien his first loss at BC.
01:36I like the Tigers and Cook and that offense in Columbia to handle their business against Boston College.
01:43And then the Oregon-Oregon State game. I don't see what that number is, Mike.
01:48If you know it, it's 16 and a half. I think that that's too juicy for me as well.
01:53Oregon has barely covered or barely won. They haven't covered in either game that they played.
02:00They barely won the games and they're playing crappy teams and they're barely winning.
02:05I think Oregon State will cover the number and give them a problem.
02:08I don't see what the last game was on that rack.
02:11Notre Dame and Purdue was the last game.
02:14I got to tell you, I want no part of Notre Dame.
02:18This could be one week they win in Kyle Field and then the next week they lose at home to Northern Illinois.
02:25I had NIU in 27 and a half. I don't want any part of this game with Purdue because I think Purdue stinks.
02:32Notre Dame should win that game down there by 10 at Ross-Ade Stadium any way you slice it.
02:37If Notre Dame doesn't bounce back from that pathetic performance at Notre Dame Stadium against the Huskies,
02:44then their whole season is doomed.
02:46I like the Irish to get it done, but I really don't have any interest in betting that game because I don't trust them.
02:52I'm with you. I'm not betting anything on the Irish this week.
02:55I'm with you on LSU. I think that's going to be a smash job for Brian Kelly and the crew on the road there.
03:02I think they're going to take care of business.
03:04I think that Oregon State and Washington State are both going to be playing with some big chips on their shoulders, Scotty,
03:10this week against their longtime rivals.
03:12I'm going to take that 16 and a half with Oregon State.
03:15We will come back and we will get through the rest of these.
03:19Of course, we do have that Washington-Washington State Apple Cup game.
03:23We've got the backyard brawl this weekend as well with West Virginia and Pitt that we have to get to.
03:29Can you believe this, Scotty? Another Georgia player with the cars.
03:34Cornerback Daniel Harris arrested Thursday night reckless driving.
03:38He was doing 106 on a wet road. That's 41 miles over the speed limit.
03:43What is with the Georgia players and the cars? What are we doing out here?
03:48I have told you before, it is the Dukes of Hazzard down in Athens in the deep woods of Georgia.
03:55And I am impressed that he took it over a bill.
03:58He had it at a buck six in the pouring rain with Daisy Duke.
04:02Here's the next set that I've got for you here.
04:04Of course, we do have the backyard brawl this weekend.
04:07West Virginia and Pitt getting together.
04:10That's on my next set of games for you.
04:12Texas A&M and Florida as well.
04:15Washington State and Washington Apple Cup, of course, now being played earlier in the year.
04:20Five and a half now for the Huskies.
04:22You've got Ole Miss going to Wake Forest with a very healthy number of 20 and a half.
04:27And Georgia visits Kentucky laying 22 and a hook.
04:33Yeah, look, if we could put that rack back up so I can look at those spreads.
04:38I got to see the odds.
04:40All right, so A&M, I like, at the Swamp, believe it or not, laying a three and a half.
04:45The young kid, I think, is going to be under a lot of pressure with that A&M defense.
04:49I mean, the Gators could get it done, fair enough.
04:51But I'm going to take a swing with Elko and A&M on the road.
04:55I've already seen Miami kick Florida's teeth in.
04:59I like the Washington State spread with Washington.
05:03I think that game in Seattle is going to be a great game.
05:06It always is.
05:07I think it's a three-point game.
05:09I don't think, you know, Washington, their whole team's gone to the NFL.
05:13I do not believe that they're going to blow out Washington State.
05:17Washington State and Oregon State have impressed me.
05:20Standing tall, holding up the pack, 12.
05:23Now they've got these four new teams.
05:25They've got six teams.
05:26They need two more.
05:27I think the conference is going to make a nice comeback in the next couple of years.
05:30In 26-27, I expect them to be back breathing.
05:33I like Pitt and the number in the Steel City against West Virginia.
05:37I already saw Penn State kick West Virginia's ass.
05:41I like Pitt.
05:42They had a comeback win.
05:43Give me the Panthers and Narduzzi.
05:45Narduzzi gets it done at home.
05:46Ole Miss in wake.
05:47Ole Miss will win at wake.
05:49Jackson Dart will whack Wake Forest in Winston-Salem.
05:53No problem there.
05:54And I think Georgia goes to Lexington, and I think they bury Kentucky.
05:59I don't believe Kentucky can hang with the Georgia Bulldogs.
06:02And frankly, we have talked so much about Georgia football players getting popped
06:06for speeding, I just don't even care anymore.
06:08I don't care anymore who speeds in hillbilly Athens, Georgia.
06:13Honestly.
06:14And you can quote me on this.
06:16Every redneck in the world down in Georgia speeds and drives 120 miles an hour,
06:20and they want to see if the long arm of the law can catch them.
06:23So whatever.
06:24All those football players can keep partying for all I care,
06:27because they win every game they play by 40.
06:30They certainly do.
06:31All right, next.
06:32We talked a little bit the other day about Indiana.
06:34They are heading to the West Coast.
06:36First time in Big Ten play.
06:37They're going to UCLA, Pasadena to see the Bruins.
06:41The Hoosiers are now minus 3.5, Scotty.
06:44Colorado and Colorado State getting together in Fort Collins,
06:47minus 7.5 for the Buffaloes.
06:49TCU, 1.5 point home favorite over UCF.
06:52Cal, who's gotten off to a good start, a win at Auburn last week,
06:56taking on the Aztecs, laying a very, very healthy number, 19.5.
07:01Well, I think that's because they saw Oregon State whack San Diego State
07:05at Snapdragon.
07:07My son was at the game.
07:08It was embarrassing.
07:09They lost 21-0 to the Beeves.
07:10I think Cal can do the same thing to the Aztecs this week in Berkeley.
07:15I like TCU in Fort Worth to get it done and cover against UCF.
07:22Colorado, Colorado State, I'm scared to death.
07:24They still have their quarterback.
07:26I don't know.
07:28I think Colorado is better than Colorado State.
07:30We've already seen Colorado State just get impaled by 52 points this year.
07:36They don't look good to me at all, Mike, and I'm with you.
07:38Earlier in the week, you brought up the Hoosiers.
07:40Gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun, gun.
07:44Take the Hoosiers and Cignetti and their performance in the Rose Bowl.
07:48Remember, honestly, I could be wrong.
07:51I could be wrong about this.
07:52I think the last time Indiana played in the Rose Bowl was 1967,
07:56and that's how long it's been since they've been to Pasadena.
07:59That might be a little overwhelming for them,
08:01but I do not believe Deshaun Foster's Bruins are good at all.
08:06I don't think Cignetti will have them ready.
08:08I don't think those kids care that that's the last time Indiana was in the Rose Bowl.
08:12I don't think they care about the Rose Bowl either.
08:14They don't even know what 1967 means.
08:18I have no idea.
08:20I got more for you here.
08:21Oklahoma State into Tulsa this week.
08:24Arkansas State, Michigan, Memphis visits FSU.
08:27FSU trying to get off the deck, of course,
08:30after a couple of bad losses to start the year.
08:33The U has Ball State coming in with a 36-and-a-half piece,
08:37and Utah is in Logan against Utah State.
08:40No cam rising, unlikely or, shall we say, unlikely to play.
08:44Finger injury on his throwing hand last week.
08:47He's unlikely to go for Utah.
08:48God, that guy's always certain he's been in college for 15 years.
08:51Yeah, honestly, he's a waste of my breath anymore.
08:54Talking about this guy, he's just the rising sun.
08:59I mean, honest to Christ, this guy's injured more than anyone in the history of football,
09:02but they'll still beat their ass.
09:05They will beat Utah State's ass in Logan.
09:07I don't care who plays quarterback.
09:09Miami is going to smack Ball State,
09:12and I think Florida State wins in tally over Memphis.
09:17Not only do they win, they win big and easily.
09:20It's their first good game of the year.
09:22They've looked terrible twice.
09:24They're going to look good against Memphis,
09:26and then Michigan will handle Arkansas State easily.
09:30This is a piece of cake game for them.
09:33The sneaky one right there is that fat number with Tulsa against Oklahoma State.
09:37I guarantee you that Oklahoma State takes them lightly
09:41and has themselves embroiled in a game.
09:44I'm willing to take the points with Tulsa in Tulsa
09:48to give the Cowboys, the Pokes, a game on the road.
09:52I think Gundy's team struggles a little bit on the road here.
09:55Everything else they played in Stillwater.
09:57This will be no cup of tea for them on the road.
10:01All right, this is the last one that I got.
10:03These are some big numbers.
10:04Texas 35 against UTSA this week.
10:07Air Force and Baylor a big number down in Waco.
10:10Kent State and Tennessee, look at that number, 49.5.
10:14Are you kidding me?
10:16And then BYU and Wyoming late night in Laramie.
10:20Yeah, I think BYU wins that game.
10:23We've already seen them win when they were a dog.
10:26Everyone thought that they'd have problems.
10:29They come up big already.
10:30And then I believe in Tennessee, their offense is sickening.
10:34I love their new quarterback.
10:35I think the Vols smack Kent State in Knoxville like nobody's business.
10:40Air Force and Baylor, I'm trying to see that number.
10:43I think it's 15 and a hook.
10:45That might be a little heavy.
10:47Baylor should win that game by 20.
10:50They really should.
10:51I'm not afraid of Air Force.
10:52They should win by 20.
10:53But I could see them screwing that up.
10:55And Texas should light up.
10:56Texas, San Antonio.
10:58I don't care what anybody thinks.
11:00Quinn Hughes is too much for them all day in Memorial, in Austin.
11:05It should be easy work.
