[Applause] He Yeah I got tell you yesterday was frustrating and listen it was due to happen because we’ve been scalding hot for so long but very close yesterday to having a very very good day let’s go through it Butler easily beating Georgetown 16 18 most second half DJ Davis goes down with 12 minutes
Left and I could just feel that cover coming from Georgetown and it still took isil Miss to make two free throws of like 13 seconds left to get us there so that one hurt anytime you lose a double overtime Underdog pick like Michigan getting three and a half against Florida
That certainly is a bad beat and then outside of that uh Indiana State doesn’t show up till the second half when things finally click and they blow the doors off and Troy versus Old Miss with the Scot cross here’s the argument Troy played well in that game in the first
Half but they weren’t scoring the score was like eight to six seven minutes in like that’s their opport they’re going to have to score but they would miss threes in the turnovers it happens we have regression no problem back again today undaunted folks as we ready to
Rock and roll remember we’re GNA come to you today we’ll be live here at 10:30 on Saturday with Justin Perry who’ll be here from Sha quality really excited to have him on we’re having some guests here getting you on across the board people that you’re interested in the
Industry I’m gonna have our Frank Frank our Matt Joseph’s mik C we have so many people on here eventually who will give you picks I’m looking forward to that we were down to 90 days until March 19th very excited and the show’s still doing well don’t forget 7946 over the last I
Think it is six shows now maybe five five six shows that certainly is nothing to sneeze at here we go folks let’s get into it make sure to put the comments in I’ll get to the games if you have questions as we go through it Radford vers West Virginia now the center of
This pick is the fact that Jesse Edwards is now no longer available to them because of the injury they don’t have a lot of depth inside now people are going to question this to say rayquan is now healthy they’re going to say that Kirk CA played in the last game and did well
Against UMass here’s the issue Radford is a very solid team they’re good on defense they control the pace and I am not so sure Jesse Edwards who is pretty much the go-to guy here for West Virginia for most of the Year seven-footer inside making jumpers almost covered against Virginia by the
Way I am not so sure they can just adjust without that they’re probably going to get better the guards are going to get acclimated going to go to a five guard lineman I get that I just think Radford is really strong Radford covered against North Carolina Force the first
Game of the year Radford is nine and four Radford has won four in a row Radford has won seven of the last eight Radford is great from three-point range shooting 38.3% Radford is solid on defense they’re top 100 and Ken palom and adjusted defensive efficiency this number is going the other way they’ve
Also had bad luck with Team shooting 74% from the free throw line against them I like Radford I like them to control the pace I know the game at West Virginia I know CR is back he played against UMass I know battle is going to play for
Montana State I understand that no Jesse Edwards make it makes a big big difference to me I am taking Radford plus seven and a half I don’t normally go with Oklahoma state but I do like them in today’s matchup against wford Oklahoma state has been better the last
Couple games and I like teams that are showing Improvement and getting hot and that’s what Oklahoma state is they are great on the defensive boards they are great at defending inside and wford if you’re going to beat them is going to have to shoot well from three and I’ve
Yet to see that from Watford this year they’re adjusting Watford doesn’t turn you over Watford doesn’t make their free throws we go back to that over and over again A Team on the road we want them to make free throws and look what Oklahoma state has done over the last two games
For Mike Bo they beat Tulsa a pretty good Tulsa team by 15 on a neutral that was a good match up in Oklahoma City then they beat Oral Roberts at home by 21 Oral Roberts is a better team than Watford and they beat them comfortably I
Think they show up here there’s no look ahead spot they have South Carolina state Chicago State they don’t get into the Big 12 schedule until January so there’s no game on the horizon they hav’t been making free throws but they’re coming off an Oral Roberts game
Where they were scalding hot 40 of 30 40 of 30 from three-point range Oklahoma State’s going to play defense under Mike Boon you know that if they score they usually cover so I don’t like Oklahoma state but I am taking them tonight here against wford I get very nervous with
This five and a half line if you watched the show you know that five and a half is a number that makes me nervous when you’re on the road I just think Longwood is the better team here Longwood has the nation’s longest active winning streak at TW uh 12 straight games Griff
Aldridge does a great job with Longwood they are great at forcing turnovers also which should be key against North Carolina Central they have won 12 straight games they’re 12- one they had wins over Delaware state in two overtimes they beat Milwaukee they beat VMI so they haven’t really played the
Greatest caliber of opponent but North Carolina Central is not the greatest caliber of opponent and you’ve seen North Carolina Central now yes they’re home but they were home they lost a USC Upstate they were home and they ended up playing Virginia Lynchberg and Mid-Atlantic Christian so they really
Haven’t played teams that are very solid so now you’re telling me that North Carolina Central is going to end the nation’s longest uh winning streak despite shooting 26% from three-point range and despite only making free throws at a 66% clip and despite being horrific on the boards I get it this is
Probably frisky it’s probably uh North Carolina Central up one at the half or something ridiculous like that but I do think Longwood eventually turns them over too much pulls away and gets the win not one of my top plays but one that I certainly like today North Carolina State minus 12 and
A half against St Louis North Carolina State at this point has always found a way to score big at home and I think they score big here as well North Carolina state has the big man inside DJ Burns and St and you’ve seen St Louis they have not been impressive to me
Whatsoever so I like this team today I like the points of North Carolina State’s going to put up I think it’s going to be very solid no problem with that you look at the upcoming schedule with games that are coming up for them with NC State they’re seven and3 on the
Year they have Detroit Mercy coming up before they start the ACC schedule I think teams in the non-conference can often be flat as you saw with Notre Dame there when they have a game coming up and they’re about to get into the conference St Louis is not that good NC
State doesn’t turn the ball over NC state has the ability to score big and they can do it I think at home they normally play very well their last few games at home that they have played this year so far 84 87 93 81 there is no way
They’re not scoring 80 tonight and the question is can St Louis get to 70 I don’t think they can I am taking NC State minus the 12 and a half this was one that was interesting and I looked at it both ways but I’m flipping on it here California has been
Better under Mark Madson but they are playing a UC San Diego team that no one wants to talk about the tritons UC San Diego just had a huge benefit from Tyler McGee the transfer here used to play Western Carolina just got eligible because of all that transfer nonsense
And pumped in 22 points in their win over Sacramento State he was six of 13 from three-point range now listen Sacramento state is not the caliber of California but that’s a big addition here that we’re not talking about so California who is playing much better
And Mark Madson does a very nice job but their next game on Friday next Friday is Arizona home California’s been terrible at defending the three California’s been terrible at turning teams over California’s offensive metrics aren’t great they’re strong on the boards because that’s a player Matson was when
He was in the NBA with the Lakers he’s strong on the boards like you see San Diego here getting eight and a half you may be able to get nine and a half in some places because I think they’re going to be able to score and I like the
Addition that no one is talking about about mcke I don’t believe in Jeff capable I didn’t believe in him last year and I certainly don’t believe in him this year I think they’re in a spot right here against Purdue Fort Wayne that’s very iffy they’ve won their last three games
They won West Virginia Way they’d be kesas at home but they didn’t cover South Carolina state good win Here Comes Purdue Fort Wayne a Purdue Fort Wayne team that has John Kaufman who is a veteran coach a Purdue Fort Wayne team that is 11 and one this year Purdue Fort
Wayne has beat dep Paul no one’s impressed with the Paul that’s still a bigger school they have uh they played San Francisco they lost that one away but they beat Oakland away 98-77 that is a good Oakland Greg campy team that can be frisky they pounded
Them and put up 98 I think they score here they’re shooting 39.5% from three-point range that’s top 15 in the country they don’t turn the ball over they force a ton of turnovers this is a classic sleepy spot for Pittsburgh here no one is betting the Mast to dunes and
What do you have with Pittsburg coming up on Saturday December 30th they start the ACC schedule against Syracuse three wins in a row not getting exciting for Purdue Fort Wayne a good Purdue Fort Wayne team this game folks reeks of Citadel Notre Dame from last night which
We got to the window comfortably on like Purdue Fort Wayne getting 14 points Ryder stinks Ryder absolutely stinks I’ve seen enough of Ryder Uh Kevin bagett little trouble there really struggling two and E this year they just lost away at Mammoth now they’re going to Delaware they’re one of the worst
Teams in the country at three-point shooting they’re one of the worst teams in the country in effective uh effective offense per kenpom they’re one of the worst teams in the country at shooting free throws and now they’re going against a Delaware team under Martin englesby who’s pretty good at home and
They’ve only played two games so far at home most of their games have been away and on a neutral but this is a team last year that was very solid at home that can be very competitive they beat Davidson at home they beat Sienna who was pretty good last year at home they
Beat Princeton away this team can be pretty good at home and they were very good once they got in the ca schedule last year at home I like the Blue Hens I like they’ve uh been solid here on offense they can score it they don’t
Turn the ball over and they play well at home Jer Davis is a fantastic player don’t like Ryder don’t see the motivation I’m taking Delaware minus 10 and a half keep those comments coming I will’ll get to them them as soon as possible Wyoming verse South Dakota
State this is one of these games that you got to be careful because this game’s going to be in a neutral so we have Wyoming here in a neutral against South Dakota state which is in El Paso Texas interesting stat that I found here first of all Jeff Linder is a phenomenal
Coach secondly they are top 40 in the country of forcing turnovers third they are shooting 40% from three-point range and 77% from the free throw line very good fundamental team in Wyoming also teams against Jeff linders Wyoming Cowboys are shooting the absolute best that is possible among all 362 division one teams
82.5% they’re shooting how about some negative regression there we have South Dakota State on the other side shooting only 65.6% from the free throw line they are terrible to defending the three which is bad news against Wyoming they are not great on the boards South Dakota state
Now on a neutral in El Paso I usually like to take the better team in the neutral setting and I’m going to do that here this line is dropping I got it at 5 and a half when I checked when I set up the show it was five it may be down to
Four and a half you want to go money line I have no problem with it I like Wyoming here again unless somebody is ruled out we had that last night with Cincinnati which was very annoying after the show two key bench players ruled out for Cincinnati of course they can’t
Cover but we can’t control that that’s gonna happen here so I like Wyoming in this matchup I’ll go with Dayton minus 11 and a half against Oakland Oakland is not at full strength and Dayton is very good at home uh don Holmes should be really good in this matchup Oakland’s to throw the
Zone at them but Dayton is shooting 40.1% from three-point range that’s top 10 in the nation they play at a very slow pace so the covers are always frisky Oakland is coming off Michigan State which is very tough this is a rough run for them they played Eastern
Michigan away nice win for Oakland they played Michigan State that’s a very physical game they lost that one away now they go Dayton away then they start the Horizon League schedule away at Cleveland State which is a very physical team this is just a tough run for campy
Squad love Oakland love the Grizzlies love campy who’s been there for 40 40 years does a fantastic job I just think this is a tricky spot here and again Oakland is a team that is not at full strength looking to make sure they get all their players back healthy I just
Think this is a weird spot this one is not comfortable and I get it whenever you’re talking about a matchup within the league whenever you’re talking about going on the road we took Marquette last night I mean I’m sorry we took uh Providence last night against Marquette they were LED from
Start to finish I have just seen seaten Hall multiple times and they have not looked good to me I’ve tended de seat in Hall games you saw that I put that on X out there they just don’t look good so I get that like this is a spot and the
Number opened to 10 and people thought it was crazy and you want to say it’s a let down spot for Connecticut okay everything together they’re not great on offense they don’t force a lot of turnovers they’re not great on the defensive boards they lost at home to
Ruckers by seven they got crushed Away by Baylor they lost in a neutral 13 to Iowa who plays zero defense USC on a neutral they lost by 12 they’ve been King of the little people you want to beat St Peters you want to beat Fairley Dickinson you want to beat Albany you
Want to beat Wagner you want to beat nor Eastern but not cover I get that I just know I’m not impressed and they did beat Mammoth at home didn’t cover and then they played Missouri in a semi away and they won that game as well but they gave
Up 87 points I think Connecticut is much better I understand if you don’t like it because you’re gonna say it’s Big East and I don’t want to lay that many points I understand that people don’t want to lay points with Yukon playing Gonzaga in a semi- neutral sight in Washington
Either how’d that game turn out Yukon is very good they’re number one in the country at 64% inside the arc they’re number five at defending inside the arc Sean Hall is not a great three-point shooting team so they’re going to have to score they score 35% of their points
SE Hall from inside the arc they only score 22.4% of their points from outside the arc 58% inside the arc that’s 35th in the country only 22% from outside the arc that’s 330th so they have to score inside that is the strength of the Yukon
Defense I don’t get it I don’t see it I know the line is dropping and if you don’t want to lay that many points in a Big East game I have no problem with you I’m going to lay it and I’m going with it anybody shocked by this one do I really
Have to do I have to give you like a big detail on on why we’re F here don’t believe in Mike White don’t believe he can cover big numbers yes Georgia seven and three they didn’t cover against High Point uh they did have the winning of the Georgia Tech because that was a
Rivalry game uh but Mike White’s teams they’re great inside the arc but they do struggle to score Mount St Mary has been a little flammable and Mount St Mary is very aggressive they can force turnovers they can get up and down the floor they’ played Georgetown away they played
Maryland away they played Mississippi way in cover they lost by nine so they’ve played some quality teams Mount St Mary’s they are not going to be nervous today playing against Georgia that’s certainly not an issue and I don’t like Mike White and there are teams here if you look at teams against
The spread we’ve done pretty well so far at teams that we like to fade teams that we came into the year fading we’ve adjusted and we’re down on UNC Asheville they are 17 and one against the spread Sienna we faded them with Cornell last night that was a comfortable cover
They’ve been terrible two- n against the spread Deal’s horrific 27- one against the spread spr I’ve had issue with San Diego State they’re only two- seven against the spread Middle Tennessee when they’re not home 3 and eight against the spread loyal as Chicago who we hate three and eight against the spread
Maryland Kevin Willard three and eight against the spread so this is another team here that we’re nervous that we just don’t like I will take the points here where Mount St Mary’s would not be surprised to see late movement go on Mount St Mary’s against Georgia
Here stay with me on this one right now it’s a no pick but I have to tell you I may take Toledo because Vermont is reminding me of Virginia we got the Virginia game wrong last night because we didn’t like the matchup but what’s Happening Here is teams like Virginia
And teams like Vermont just don’t have the offense they don’t have enough offense and that was the Factor last night sure Virginia plays great defense but they have to continue to find ways to score and they can’t Ryan Dunn cannot score consistently enough he can’t ree
Beakman is not a 30o per game scorer that’s not who he is we know that that is the problem and they’re not super great on the boards either and they can’t make their free throws Vermont looks a notch below where they normally are do we love John Becker yes my
Partner got on the screen the screener podcast we’ve interviewed John Becker three or four times he’s a great coach and a better person but Vermont here struggling against Colgate at home struggling against Virginia Tech got their doors blown off Yale at home you know they shouldn’t have won that game
Dartmouth they didn’t cover Bradley away they lost which doesn’t look great right now Liberty they lost by 10 they just don’t look to be the same Vermont team as normal is it a no pick right now yes could it beat Toledo by the time the game tips off thousand per yes terrible
They don’t force turnovers terrible on the offensive boards they play at a slow pace if Toledo gets up 10 the game is over just like you saw last night when Memphis gets up in Virginia the game is over they are not structured to come back Vermont needs to stay within plus
Five minus5 the entire time in these games and the question is do you think they can do it against Toledo Toledo’s defense is not good Toledo’s offense is spectacular so right now no pick but I’m leaning Toledo I believe in St John’s the entire year I don’t believe in Xavier I think
You have a coach that’s doing a good job there with Xavier and I believe in what Shawn Miller is doing but they did lose three straight games to Oakland Houston and Delaware at home that’s not good now they’re playing St John’s this is the first game in the Big East you know St
John’s is gonna be fired up and be careful here St John’s did lose to Boston College which is catastrophic even though it’s smam a moner but I think they’ve rided the ship and you know that Rick patino has proven over his career that teams get better I think
They’re ready tonight for Xavier it’s a very close game it opened at three and a half it got up to six it’s now done to five and a half I’m gonna lay the points here Xavier at home is different than Xavier on the road they played one game
One true Road game this year Xavier on the road one they played Purdue away and they lost by 12 they have not played a true Road game I think St John’s is fired up tonight the game is home this matchup this game is in carnesa Arena
Which is always an advantage at home I like patin they’re great on the offensive boards I think they get it done I’m not scared of this one they have a game coming up away at Connecticut which I understand but the first game of the Big East is not
Going to be a game that they’re going to overlook we should have got the butler one last night if not for an injury and if we don’t get an injury tonight I think St John’s gets this one done a lot of people on Duke here okay
That’s fine I’m gonna go with Baylor I like Baylor uh Baylor had looked fantastic until their recent loss they look very strong they lost to Michigan State by 24 points away now they’re playing Duke on a neutral the game is in New York in MSG fantastic everyone is on Duke everyone
Is on Duke in this game it’s Duke they’re gonna bounce back I don’t know about that I’ll take Scott grw Scott Scott drew over John shy I’ll take the fact that Baylor’s bigs are gonna limit Kyle filipowski who’s able to dominate hastra but struggled against Charlotte and struggled against Georgia Tech I’ll
Take my chances now I believe I’m pretty sure that Proctor is going to be back that’s great Proctor’s a wonderful player it’s fantastic I just can’t believe he G me three and a half points uh if this game jums up to four that’s fine I Duke has not proven to me in any
Way shape or form that on a neutral Court they should be favored by three and a half or four points over Baylor I don’t see it people always bet Duke they love Duke I haven’t seen this in fact I haven’t seen it over the last couple
Years with Duke even when Coach K was there I believe in Scott drew I like this Baylor team Baylor’s defense is always going to show up they’re fantastic at limiting opposing teams from three-point range holding opponents to under 30% from three-point range and that’s going to be a problem for Duke
Who likes to score it Duke doesn’t turn the ball over and Proctor is fantastic but their Baylor is also relentless on the offensive boards and Baylor right now is shooting 44.6% from three-point range I know it’s due for regression a team is that scolding hot shooting almost 45% from three-point range it’s
Due for regression this game’s not in Cameron this game’s in m and Square Garden I’ll take them with the points here uh Belmont’s good Belmont’s really good at home and and we were very fortunate with our Arkansas State game against Louisville recently we’re very happy about that but Belmont is coming
Off a loss away at Sanford they’re starting the Missouri Valley Conference schedule very soon they’re also shooting 39% on the year from three-point range and at home they’re shooting a lot better they played home against Val perzo they won they played home against limam they won they played home against
Georgia State they won now those games have been close but Arkansas state is doesn’t turn you over Arkansas state is only 67% from the free throw line AR State doesn’t shoot really well Arkansas state has won two games in a row they’ve beaten UAB they’ve beaten Louisville I
Think Belmont gets are shooting right tonight and I think they roll UNBC stinks UNBC stinks I have watched UNBC they like to push the pace they like to get up and down the floor so you’re telling me that we’re going into Iowa an Iowa team is going to need this win to
Write the ship because they have not played well lately they lost a Purdue they lost to Iowa State they lost to Michigan State they did bounce back in a neutral against Florida A&M so now they’re home they’re 0 and2 here in the Big 10 so they have two games coming up
To get things right against UNBC in Northern Iowa Northern Illinois rather they’re playing UNBC who is inferior in terms of talent who is terrible at turnovers UNBC is terrible at turning the ball over and they don’t turn you over and they’re not great from the free throw line and they’re really not great
On offense they just like to play at a fast pace so you’re G to go into Iowa play at a fast pace against Iowa at home really this has 40 Point loss written all over it this has Iowa winning this game by 40 I got them here I also got
Them on the first half line and again our first half Line’s not been great so tread lightly here we lost that one with Indiana State I like Iowa in this game UNBC has no Talent they cannot score they have struggled all year UNBC lost a Morgan State lost at home a thousand by
16 lost away at St Peters they lost to cop and state Away by 19 do you know bad cop and state is did you see cop State against Georgetown I mean just traveling can’t dribble the ball don’t see it Iowa here 30. win and you know I don’t like
Laying big numbers but I will do it here I’m absolutely done with Liberty forget Liberty I have no interest in Liberty whatsoever everything is dependent on the road that they have to make thas on the road I just don’t think it’s going to happen Liberty had their nice win
This year the only one I’ve really been fired up about is when they beat Vermont but as it turns out Vermont wasn’t very good they got the doors blown off by Florida Atlantic who plays zero defense whatsoever they have Charleston they lose by nine uh they bounced back and
They beat Mississippi Valley stayed at home but they have not played a true they’ve played one true Road game all year one liberty and that was Florida Atlantic and they lost by 25 points I’m fine with this Utah Valley team with Todd Phillips they had two really tough
Games recently against Oregon State and Utah but those are high quality opponents Liberty’s gonna have to shoot well actually Utah state is pretty good at defending the three they generate 39% of their points Liberty from Beyond The Arc that is a nightmare they’re not shooting their free throw as well only
Making 67% so here’s a liberty team that plays at a slow pace that’s playing only their second true Road Game of the Year at Utah Valley where they have to shoot the three well where Utah Valley is actually pretty good at defending the three and they don’t make free throws
I’m done with Liberty give me Utah valley plus five and a half unpopular pick warning unpopular pick warning went on Von yesterday they tried to get me sponsored for the pink grapefruit juice I hope that happens unpopular pick warning at this point in the year Everyone likes to fade teams that are
Undefeated because they want to think of parody they want to think of regression and normally that’s a really good way to go here’s the problem Porter moer is a much better Coach than Hubert Davis significantly better I know this game is in Charlotte so it’s a pseudo home game
For North Carolina I don’t care Oklahoma beat Arkansas Oklahoma beat Providence they have not played a true Road game yet this year this is not a true Road game it’s a semia away game I don’t trust North Carolina they have lost two straight games to Connecticut and Kentucky so I certainly understand that
The Tar Heels are going to come out today with a lot of fire and a lot of aggression with Armando Bott and Harrison Ingram and RJ Davis and cor M Ryan in the corner for three I understand that if this game gets out of the first five minutes and it’s still
Close I’ll feel very confident about it I like this Oklahoma team Porter moer is a great EXs and O coach they are great defensively they hold opponents to 25% from three-point range they are great on the boards they’re great on the offensive board that’re great on the defensive boards and their interior
Offense the movement that Porter moer has on offense is going to pick apart North Carolina I’m taking Oklahoma plus three I’m surprised this not line got to this point look if North Carolina comes out and starts making five or six three-pointers to start the game we may
Have to adjust hit live line and try to get back some of our profits I don’t think it’s gonna happen I believe in Oklahoma I understand that we just saw this with Baylor and Baylor got their doors blown off by Michigan State I don’t think Tom mizo and Hubert Davis
Are comparable I don’t think the guard play of Michigan State which was due to regress to positively from three-point range is comparable to what we have here with North Carolina RJ Davis is a solid player Armando Bott is soft Harrison Ingram is really good and probably the
Best oround player they have but he can come in and out I am taking Oklahoma plus three would I lay three no I wouldn’t lay three but I’ll take three in what I think is a coin flip game this was a tough one this is a really tough
One because kraton Can’t Stop anyone off the dribble we know that we’ve seen that the problem is I think Villanova stinks and they don’t have Justin Moore in this game Rustin confirmed that he’s going to be out so a lot of people don’t like it
And this you may have liked it when it opened around six and a half may have been a better line I don’t like Villanova they did beat UCLA UCLA stinks guys UCLA is not good UCLA now as much as uh Cronin is all upset and he’s
Making fun of of players on banova like Tyler Burton playing for Richmond which was a cheap shot they’ve lost now four of their last five UCLA now you’re playing a Villanova team who is going to kraton for the Big East opener so you’re going to get maximum effort from
Villanova no just a mo but you’re also going to get Maxim effort from kraton now Villanova does make their free throws but they play at a very slow pace do you know that Villanova is allowing opponents 36% from three-point range that’s 300th in the country 300th that’s
Not good against a team that generates 41% of their points from Beyond The Arc I’m taking kraton here their greatest defending the three they’re great inside the r caul brener is a little soft I get it but I’m going to lay the points here with kraton if Villanova was fully
Healthy would I be concerned maybe but the way that you’re going to be Katon is you have to be physical with them inside you have to beat them off the dribble and you have to guard the three I don’t know if Villanova is at physical anymore
I don’t know if they can attack the baset regularly without Justin Moore and I don’t know if they can guard the three check check check check check thank you very much I’ve been impressed with San Jose State this is an interesting one Santa cla’s Kristoff Tilly is out for
Tonight’s game per herb send deck he’s averaging about nine points and five rebounds at the same way San Jose States adram Dango is also questionable for tonight’s game he’s averaging five and five so both teams are a little banged up but I like San Jose State here I’ve
Been impressed with what they’ve done with Tim miles uh they’re doing pretty well in their statistics per kenpom uh they’re good on inside the arc they’re good at shooting threes they don’t turn the ball over uh and they’ve been compe at home I like them here Santa claraa of
Course Very solid under herb syndic but they did lose away at California by 15 they lost on the neutral in New Mexico they got buried they lost at home to Utah state that was a rough loss they were winning that game and they beat Washington State on a neutral it’s just
Too many points I think it’s a coin flip game I like San Jose State the team I’ve been really impressed with is Seattle I see the comments piling up I will get to them right after this game I promise games are piling up here and I’m seeing
Seattle a team that I really like I have tracked Seattle this year from the whack and they’ve actually done very very well they had two rough losses recently a away to San Francisco and the Washington game at home which they should not have lost here lost that game in double
Overtime otherwise they’ been fairly competitive away at VCU only lost by four played really well the UT UC San Diego team who I mentioned they beat them by 12 points which was a solid win and now they’re home against Louisiana Tech Louisiana Tech in their Road games
This year lost to Colorado State lost to New Mexico lost L to St Louis and St Louis is abysmal I like Seattle here at home Louis de struggles to score they’re bad from the free throw line they’re bad from inside the arc and they don’t force
A lot of turnovers so before I get to the last one the big game here Arizona Alabama let’s see where your comments are let’s go through it here thank you so much for all these comments my goodness Trevor let’s go Radford little BR brother angle yeah I Get It Radford
Is always tough on the road no one knows about Radford they don’t know where they are Virginia by the way uh Jesse Edward’s out four to six weeks I’m not on it is Vermont plus five Brian overreaction after losing to two good teams here’s my problem I don’t think
They can score consistently I don’t think they have enough players that can beat you off the dribble so they have to be so solid fundamentally and so solid on the boards that they can overcome the fact that they don’t have a player that can score remember Dylan Penn used to be
On Vermont he can get in the gaps they don’t have that this year so I just don’t see how they can score uh was liking uh yep the San Diego’s been hot lately yes Trevor they’ve been hot lately as well uh I’ve been on the size yeah the size Advantage is different for
Pittsburgh but that works the other way Trevor because you Purdue Fort way can also get up and down the floor and they can run feder Rico feder Rico right off the court there so I get it I don’t like Jeff capable so you know when I go in
Against Jeff capable or some of these other coaches you know I I tend to look for a reason but I also think Purdue Fort Wayne can score and that’s the big Advantage here uh let’s see here yep I mentioned this one Austin I think Iowa blows him out I’ve watched UNBC three
Times this year they’re terrible they turn the ball over and they play fast you’re going to beat Iowa by playing fast in Carver Hawkeye Arena I don’t think so uh any thoughts on Baylor night now I like Baylor I know people like Duke and Duke is always going to get the money so
Fading Duke has usually been a pretty profitable play for me I like that in fact if you want to be technical let’s look at Duke this year against the spread let’s take a look at it yeah Duke is just five and five against the spread so again not a team that is dominant
Against the spread in these situations I like Baylor getting the points Al’s in the house great to see here uh Sean Hall mucks this up Trevor it is possible that Sean Hall can Muck it up and I get it it’s a really big number I do understand that if you want to stay
Away I think it’s totally reasonable first Big East game laying a lot of points on the road I have no problem with that I’m GNA take Yukon smaller amount but I get it if you want to be nervous I think that’s totally totally reasonable uh St John’s has been better
Lately too yeah they had some big get together at patino’s house where they broke piz’s in the player there’s a lot of good chemistry going on with patino’s group right now I think they beat Xavier on the road as well uh Trevor likes the fact that they’re
Three and one away from home one- two for Duke yeah Bor R into bu so yeah Michigan say out hot it happens and it’s also a big reaction here which is where I’m going with that uh caulk uh yeah Justin Moore is out for Nova yes it is
Is caulk burner out I have not heard that Michael and certainly if caulk burner’s out I don’t know if that would take me off kraton because what will happen is the line will drop so if I hear that caulk brother is out it’s a no
Play unless I see the line if that line drops down to five or four I still think kraton getss it would I lay eight or nine or 10 points without caul burer no but it’s close because I’m not sure if he’s going to be there uh Cronin is
Unlikable yeah yeah Mike I hate the fact what he said he took a shot at at uh Eric Dixon he took a shot at Tyler Berton I mean Cronin is just struggling there very very frustrated um I like seia Trevor you know what is I don’t
Suffer with the recency bias a lot of times you’ll see recency bias and you’ll see teams have a bad performance I just shake that off because to to me that provides opportunity a lot of people like the Giants here against the Eagles in the NFL I’m still taking the Eagles I
Don’t care about the loss here um and that is pretty much it I think that’s it okay let’s get to the last game and then we’ll get out of here yeah guys suffering from a cold here but we’re getting better we’ll be better on Saturday very tough call here but I’m
Taking Arizona minus six and a half against Alabama it’s a lot of points Arizona is the real deal they struggled against Purdue but they still are really good and I think Alabama is not quite ready to win a game of this magnitude it is in Phoenix I like that Alabama was tough
They have good pieces they can shoot threes but this is a pick on Arizona is Arizona overrated because of what happened earlier this year and is the loss to Purdue gonna linger or is Arizona really one of the elite teams in college basketball and they’re going to
Bounce back in a big way here against Alabama that is the question you have to decide I am going with the former I like Arizona anytime you’re betting on Cayla love it’s a qu it’s a real question mark but they beat Duke Away by five in Cameron indor they beat Michigan State
By six Mich they played very well in that game they blew the doors off of Wisconsin at home and no this game is not home it is in a semi home game but Alabama coming off Purdue coming off kraton now they have Arizona this is a
Rough one this is a rough stretch so maybe they get up for this I just think Arizona will put them away eventually and by the way spoiler alert Saturday we Justin Perry on I love Arizona against Florida Atlantic dear Lord if Florida Atlantic doesn’t play defense against
Arizona they could score a 100 points as always folks thank you so much let’s get back to the window let’s get back on the good side very excited here the college basketball show is growing and I love that it’s all because of you guys supporting along the way we’ll be back
On Saturday 10:30 we get to that nice early spot there Justin Perry will be on we will go through his picks as well as mine big Saturday folks big things coming up Happy New Year happy holidays as well let’s get to the window m
