It’s Sports by the book here from the South Point Studio I’m Matt nevert along with Alex white and got a special guest to join us right here off the top as we approach Super Bowl 58 it’s the man responsible for just about everything that we’re doing here at the South Point

Studios and want to welcome you guys in want to welcome in our guy Chris Andrews he’s he’s our guy here at the South Point I’m not that special I’m here every day what are you talking about that’s just your well you made you made the exception this week you’re here every day this

Week pretty much because it is the busiest week of the year of course Super Bowl 58 coming up this weekend we got a two-point favorite in the San Francisco 49ers ho the 20th time this season every single game they have been favored wanted to bring you on to start the show

Chris and welcome in our viewers just with an update on the handle both sides you said on the props you’re taking some pretty even action when we were talking off air what about on the game itself the spread the total and the money lines how is the action looking from a balance

Standpoint well I know Jimmy posted a one bet the guy came in bet us 150,000 early in the week so we moved the number uh and since then so he met on to 49ers laid one and a half laid a dollar 14 I want to say on the money line we’ve had

Some other money line play too I W up going to a quarter plus a dime so we’re or plus 15 we’re using a dime line and like Jimmy and I were just talking back there I mean Wednesday night in baseball season aren’t you using you know like

You know Tampa Bay and call aren’t you using like a dime line there and why can’t you use a dime line on the Super Bowl for God’s sake so we got a ton of money on both the the money line and the point spread since we did move that

Number off the original bet it’s pretty much been all Kansas City we’re still not evened up yet uh but the action’s been terrific and uh and we mentioned the one guy bet uh the for he’s not the only one there’s one other guys been in

The Niners too so there’s a lot of money on both sides but I think I’m happy with that but I I still think the uh I think the the props are going to outright the the game itself that’s my opinion but we’re still you know who knows how many

Couple days away I’m glad you brought up props I’m really curious do you still bet on any props I told you I I can remember the last prop I bet wasn’t that long ago it’s when Tampa Bay with uh Tom Brady was was playing Kansas City yeah and I I

Love Tampa Bay in the game mostly because like a lot of other guys I saw the offensive line troubles for for uh for Kansas City so rather than taking I think I think I could have even taken three and a half or taken a good money

Line I played Tom braider to win the MVP I think I took plus 250 wow took a hell of a price and of course I won it it was which always a nice memory but if you remember groon had a huge game he did and he had that one pass across the

Middle and I can’t remember who it was hit him in the ankle and he would otherwise it was nothing but green grass to the end of and I know if he caught that pass I think he gets the MVP so would have been first ever to win Super

Bowl in yeah and I think they were they would have loved to given it to grank you know but I want up winning that bet and that’s the last prop bet I in I don’t swear off him or anything like I said I got 300 props on my board I I got

Enough sweat if something jumped out at me I’d probably play but nothing I don’t think so this year props this year in particular that you’re going to be sweating out anyone that is lopsided action from the proposition standpoint well there’s probably a few but I’m starting to get two-way action on almost

All the props which tells me that my opening lines weren’t all that bad uh I have one guy who I mean he comes in every year and Bets me and I mean he’s bet me well over 200,000 so far um but we do okay with I mean we beat him out

Of a little bit last year he beat me out of a little more than that two years ago so uh but I have a ton of respect for him and tell you the truth I try to go in with the same sides that he has as

Much as I can and I got a few guys like that that I really monitor their play and if I can go in with the same size as them that’s fine but I’m getting good two-way action right now so I’m not too strung out really on anything um you

Know but like I said we still got a few days to go that’s a good position to be in even though it is still early we had Jay corn on the show yesterday who runs the book over at the Westgate super book and he echoed your sentiment that he

Thinks that because the game is not really near a key number opened at two and a half but has now been anywhere from one and a half to two basically Market wide uh since the first couple of days that the line opened he echoed your sentiment though that he thinks that the

Props are going to outright the game itself and would that be a first for you having more action on props than on the game itself it’s got to be close I think last year was really close and I know Jay’s a good friend of yours is a good

Friend of mine too that dirty rat all that extra MC CU he’s created a lot of this monster that we’re looking at but I still and I really do I love Jay and I I don’t know if I said it on this show but

A lot of times after a bad Sunday I see that first text Monday morning it’s Jay did you guys get murdered too yeah we did Jay so we’re in the same boat but I do have to tease Jay about one thing and I am dead serious about this I my wife

And I we moved to town at 2016 she opened an account 200 bucks and she asked me where to open I said well open at the Westgate they’ll give you the best bang for but so I love Jade do a great job over there she has never put

More money in that account wow never and I always kid him I says yeah you’re the sharpest bookm you can’t beat my wife think that is true she’s she’s gotten close a couple times you know what it’s all about but I mean she and I mean it’s

Like $10 bets and she doesn’t ask me she goes and Bets fact me and Vin sit there on Sunday morning who’s Pam like today right down you but it’s true but Jay’s a good friend and I they really one of the best bookmakers in town and we’re I

Think um I I kind of kid him about this monster that he’s created I think I think the monster of these CR has been actually pretty good very good we’re enjoying it that’s for sure he also said that recreational BS tend to bet the overs and then the sharps with

The unders do you think that’s how your two-way action with the propis not yet it’s still mostly sharp action and I think right now you we did move the number enough I don’t want to open myself to a lot of midds you know I mean they they do happen and that’s just

Part of bookmaking but I think some there’s some Arbitrage guys out there but the the guy who bet me originally and like I said I highly respect his his moves and all he wasn’t arbitraging anything he was betting you know so you know we’ll see how he does and um you

Know I don’t know if I’m going to be rooting for him in half of these probably am going to be rooting for him in about half of those props that’s the beauty of being a bookmaker during Super Bowl week you don’t have to make your

Mind up for who you’re going to root for you just see where the money goes and you know your your rooting interest is decided yeah one one thing that we’ve been talking about and that you’ve been mentioning here over these last two weeks is that so much of the action

Comes in late when the recreational betters come to town when the fans of the teams themselves and people who were here just to party when they come to town that’s when the real money comes in at this point right now if you had to take a guess put a number on it what

Percent of the total action on the game have you taken right now as we sit Tuesday what 5 days before the game itself 25% wow something like that incredible yeah yeah and we always say Friday it really kind of starts Thursday you know about Thursday night cuz a lot

Of people you know take off Friday especially people coming in from out of town they’ you what the hell they’re going to come in Friday or the Thursday night instead of Friday night so it really starts picking up Thursday and uh I yeah L is this is two attractive teams

And I go back two years ago when we did set the record now we did have an LA team in there so that meant a lot but LA and the Bengals not really two super attractive teams these two teams there I mean you know listen Niners been there last couple years probably probably

Would have made the Super Bowl last year if pie doesn’t get hurt yeah and of course momes he’s uh you know this is what his fourth Super Bowl third I know he’s one two third this is his fourth rather this is his fourth Super Bowl so

Far yeah anyway should be fun last week when we talked the South Point still had rooms available for the weekend do they still yeah check today yeah okay and um how many seating areas for the big day on Sunday I’m excited I’m going to stick around I’m going to hang out here and

Watch the game and 4,000 about 4,000 the big party is up in the exhibit hall that listen they’re all great parties just you that 2500 there th000 in the other room about 3 or 400 another room all around the casino you know the sports book will be full Grand View will be

Full the the showroom I personally I think the show room which seats about 300 that’s the best place to watch the game but you know get get the best view you get a great view great TV good food specials that’s we won’t have betting at the show we won’t have betting there but

What’s it 100 yards to the sport you know or get the app that’s right get the app don’t get the app on Sunday morning I I try to all our people try to be as nice as I can as they can they might be a little testy that morning you know

Putting in app uh applications yeah so come in try to do it before Sunday morning please do us all a favor you heard it here first if you’re in town come on down to the South Point get your South Point app you can bet all the

Games all 19 plus pages of the props in this packet as well will be available on the app and Chris we’ll let you get back to work but we wanted to bring you on just to update some of the numbers and kind of the betting Trends as we get

Closer to the game and uh yeah busy week for you you’re just getting started thanks I got a good night’s sleep last night though that was important yeah well there we go get back behind the counter he’s Chris Andrews the director of the sports book right behind us here

At the South Point great start to the show as we approach Super Bowl 58 uh at 3:30 here in about 20 minutes we’ll bring on Sports media personality Arash markazi may remember him from his work with the LA Times ESPN now running his own show at the sporting Tribune

Covering Sports in America’s Southwest we’ll talk college basketball coming up in a few minutes we’ve got some NBA and NHL plays as well but Alex we’ve been talking props all week we’re going to continue here today and talk about some of our favorites yesterday we highlighted some that were just more

Interesting to us and maybe some that could be bet through some Trends but today you’re getting the hard plays the hard numbers that we’ve crunched and some of our favorite props and uh right off the bat we’ll start with one that you like you heard Chris talk about

Chris or you heard Chris talk about Brock p and what the 49ers season could have been last year without the injury but you think that Brock pry in a BigTime situation is going to have a big time game through the air I love it so we kind of categorized trying to get a

Passing prop reception maybe a rushing in there anytime touchdown so starting with the passing prop I’m definitely looking at Brock py in this one over 2422 yards he’s gone over this in seven of the last 10 games his Median on the year is 254 yards per game and I mean 254 in his

Last four games his Median on the year is 261 a lot of people think that they’re going to be playing from behind I’m not necessarily in that camp but I do think he will use his arm and we’ll get over this 242 and a half yeah that one number

3269 on the prop sheet here at the South Point pretty over one area that I saw when I was doing research on some other props is that pretty actually performs more than surprisingly well when pressure when when teams drop back in coverage and have four uh rushers that’s

When he has really struggled I don’t know what kind of a defensive game plan this KC team is going to employ here I would think it is one with pressure and we we’ll talk about a sacks prop later because you’re looking at that as well

But I I think that P has performed very well under pressure so he’s kind of a a almost they call it in baseball a reverse split kind of the exact opposite of what you would think but pry when getting the ball out of his hands quick

I think that’s that’s when he’s at his best I completely agree and you brought it up numerous times on this show we’ve seen them now in two games they can come from behind and that has a lot to do with Brock py under Center if they do

Fall behind late they will need his arm to mount a big time comeback which would be the third week in a row which is just about as many times as Kyle Shanahan has done in the entirety of the rest of his career uh so yeah you like pry over 2402

And a half and for the passing prop that I like take a look at number 3297 if you’ve got your prop sheet in front of you I like Patrick Mahomes to throw a touchdown pass in the first quarter and I highlighted it when I was on with

Frank Niko earlier on punch lines as a guest and kind of said it throughout the week I think this game is going to be fast early slow late I think that both teams come out with a fervor on the offensive side of the ball and really

Try to get it going and the number that I gave out yesterday is a main reason why I like this one the Chiefs have scored on the opening drive in eight straight playoff games it’s the longest streak in the NFL since 1991 uh it’s been you know a long time

Since that’s been tracked no one’s done it better than the Chiefs as far as scoring on their opening drive of playoff games plus Andy Reid with extra time to game plan I think that both teams come out with a really really solid game script especially in those

First 15 to 20 plays you can get that prop by the way at plus 180 and I like Mahomes to throw multiple touchdown passes in the game I think he gets it going early and I’d like him to throw a touchdown pass in the first quarter take

A look at the first drive and that’ll be a theme kind of throw out some of these props I think that the Chiefs have a really really good start and are able to find ways to attack this 49ers defense but then as they so often do San

Francisco is going to find ways to adjust late so those uh two of the pr the passing props that we like and you had a certain player on one of these two teams that you’re looking at in the receiving prop Market I am so shop around if you can find receptions I

Think I like that more I did see uh Noah gray over one and a half receptions I think I like that more but I don’t mind this at all and that is over 11 and 1 half receiving yards for Noah gray that is 3475 here at South Point Median on

The year is 16 and A2 only eight yards against the Ravens but if you watch that game they didn’t really need to get creative in the second half they were playing a very easy Run game there with the lead um 26 yards against the bills and 20 against the Dolphins and Andy

Reid has used two or more tight ends in 45% of his snaps in the last two games so Noah gray they’re going to get him involved I mean I love TR Travis Kelce in the first half I’ve talked about that a lot as well but I really think that

This is a good spot to grab Noah gray as well interesting yeah some low numbers just trying to take advantage of you know maybe his first two catches are for like 20 yards and you’re you’re in on both of these pretty early on that’s right that’s kind of what you’re hoping

For and like like I’ve kind of highlighted I think that the Chiefs throw a ton at the beginning of the game I was going to say I like your passing prop that kind of goes with my narrative as well yeah and one that I like as well

Is a a guy another low number uh I like Clyde Edwards hair under 5 and a half receiving yards now he really has not been featured whatsoever in the playoffs as a whole I mean just pulling up his his game log here in his in the three

Playoff games seven carries for 21 yards two carries for 31 yards one for one in the receiving game it’s even more poultry one catch on one target for five yards one catch on one tget target for a loss of a yard two catches two Targets three yards so they are not targeting

Him down the field whatsoever and the other big note that I wrote down was that you know aside from those seven yards on four catches total between three playoff games you look at his numbers from the regular season he had 188 regular season receiving yards but

You got to take in a context 135 of those were in a three-game stretch for weeks 15 to 17 so they got him really involved in the passing game for a finite period of time and then he’s got let me do the math 14 yards in four

Games since then wow so I really like Clyde Edwards hair I think if they’re going to throw the ball it’s going to be down the field and they’re going to lean on pcho in the Run game a lot especially in the second half so I don’t think that

They target Clyde Edwards hair or as me and my brothers call him K I will say I love that I’m going to highlight that I will probably tail you on that you really want to look for unders that you like as well and early in this week of

Course we’re looking for overs it’s the best time to grab them and everybody who’s watching I mean they want overs and they want a root for for points and action in this game but you do have to be careful I mean last year was a dream

Right that game over and I think all the over props hit just about because those two were going back and forth but it doesn’t always happen in the Super Bowl so just be aware if you find a good under that you like and I think you

Found a great one there Matt and we talked about the running back situation for Kansas City they’re a little bit deeper obviously than this San Francisco team that features Christian mcaffry and just about nobody else in the backfield as we move on to our rushing props I

Brought up Isaiah Pacho and you like his over in terms of rushing yards in this game I do I went over 65 and a half rushing yards that’s 3345 here at South Point his Median on the year is 66 so that probably doesn’t give you much hope

But the Chiefs they had a turning point after that game on Christmas against the Raiders we all saw it their offense has completely flipped the switch since then his median is 93 yards per game I expect them to lean on him and him to have um

Some big plays here to get over that 65 a half and then you and I both like different Christian mcaffrey props you like his longest rush over correct I do his Median on the year is 22 and in the last four games it’s 32 I think they are

Really going to try and get Christian mcaffrey the ball I mean it’s the biggest game of the year what are you going to do give the best player on your team the ball I like that I like that thinking and it’s kind of the reason why

I look at uh first rushing attempt over three and a half yards again just from a game planning perspective you you’re going to get the best player the ball in the situation where he’s going to be the most successful and like I said earlier with the Chiefs I think the same goes

For the 49ers and KY Shanahan they’ve got two weeks to script this game came out I think that they’re going to find a way to get mcaffry the ball in space set the tone early even a four-yard rush gets you over this one so I I really really like Christian mcaffry first

Attempt over three and a half yards uh it’s toggling between minus 110 and minus 120 but I like it at at either Ro that’s not too big of a of a straddle when you’re when you’re talking about a prop like this so yeah mcaffrey over you

Like his longest rush over 17 and a half and when it comes to touchdown props we’re on two players from two different teams but yours has a littleit of a caveat to it mine does and I I talked about it yesterday but I’m going to double down here I really like Travis

Kelce first half touchdown I just think it’s you’re getting the most bang for your buckets plus 210 here two of the three playoff games he scored in the first half three of his five regular season touchdowns were in the first half and it’s just funny CU they’re always

The big game the Standalone games when I went through the season and it was the Sunday night game or the 130 game where there was only two other ones so he loves this he lives for the moment I think they’re going to get him involved early as well so I like Travis Kelce

First half touchdown and of course Taylor Swift’s going to be there he always performs better when when she’s in the house I I like that the the first half especially at plus 210 similar with my Chief’s first drive handicap I wouldn’t be surprised whatsoever to see

Travis Kelce get a red zone Target on that first drive and score the opening touchdown of this game that’d be an interesting number to look at let me look when we go to a break later what Travis Kelce first Chiefs touchdown number would be uh but the one that I

Like is Brandon auk anytime touchdown plus 140 a little bit lower of a number because it is the full game prop but he is finding ways to get more involved in this offense and we talked about it yesterday that he has gotten more and more Red Zone targets as the season has

Gone along and I really think that they target Brandon iuk early and often a lot of the pressure defensively from the chief’s perspective is going to be on a now healthy Debo Samuel a fully healthy Christian mcaffrey and I think auk and maybe even George K I think those two

Guys are the ones to take a look at for me in the anytime touchdown uh Market you can get KD at plus 170 I like iok as more of a quote unquote sure thing gets more Targets in more situations and especially lately in the Red Zone I

Think that’s what I’m most excited about in this game to see what Andy Reid and Kyle shanan come up with I think they’re going to get very creative and try and get as many players as they can involve so I like that a lot we had Matt

Hamilton on our show and he gave out iuk before um the Lions game actually and said in the six games that he scored a touchdown the ners won he scored again against L it was a lucky TouchDown for that one but he scored and they won

Again so if that works out again uh might be a ners victory here you actually have the page up with first touchdown what is Travis Kelce first touchdown on the top right there plus 275 plus 275 so I I don’t hate that as a uh as a just a you know

Shot in the dark B on who’s going to score that first touchdown because the one that I like the one General prop that I really like in the game and I’ve highlighted it throughout the week 3183 what will the Chiefs do first score or punt again that number the Chiefs have

Scored in their opening drive in their last eight playoff games in a row longest streak in the NFL since 1991 despite the five punts in the second half last week I think that’s a trend that continues early on and especially even money I I like the

Chiefs to score before they punt I’m I’m going to be honest with you I’m going to tail a lot of these props that we’ve gone through the last two days y you found some really good ones I can’t believe that streak it’s AB absolutely amazing but it makes sense and to go

Back to Travis Kelce last year in the Super Bowl the Eagles did Score first but the Chiefs went down answered that and Travis Kelce was the first to score for the Chiefs there you go so maybe back toback years he’s one of the handful of guys that can do it right um

Your generic prop is interesting as well and it also follows a streak that’s taken place over recent years the team that scores last wins the game you like it to happen again I do so early last week when these came out I thought it

Was about 150 it is up to minus 220 here and it might even wow they’ll update us there 3105 it might have even moved a little bit more but that’s because this has a 13 and0 streak going in the last 13 Super Bowls the team that scored last won the game so oh

We’re at minus 180 okay so some action back the other way okay I like it we like that I think that tells you that folks are thinking you know Sharps and public alike that this game’s going to be late scoring back and forth action

Yeah I agree and I mean you got to think about that most public betters are in here just trying to make fun bets this will be fun if this happens right they aren’t really diving in necessarily I mean some do I got to give people credit

But they don’t know that there’s a 13 to0 streak here and it just kind of makes sense okay if um if they’re coming back and forth they could win this and get that plus money but I like the favorite in this one and our last of the

Five categories that we took a l look at in props was generic at least how we had it written down but it may as well have been unders because we we had a lot of unders that we like so we have a category just for the unders yours are

More on the defensive side of the ball Yes except well okay so yeah that is my favorite one and I saw total sacks combined four and a half I like that under especially both of these quarterbacks have proved that they can scramble we know Mahomes obviously his

Median on the year is one sack pry is two here at the South Point they have them split up I I mean I think that’s actually better value cuz it’s two and a half so if you want to make a bet on both of those 3244 Chiefs going under

That 2 and a half is-1 20 and what shocked me is the ners 3242 under 2 and a half that one’s actually favored a lot more than the chief side I thought that was right that is weird yeah it’s interesting and one of the my two unders that I like the

Best are ones that I kind of gave out yesterday and we’ve been talking about the Chiefs in the second half in the fourth quarter going under they’ve been the best in NFL history since that’s been track dating all the way back 20 years to 2005 I like both second half

Under 24 and fourth quarter under 13 and A2 but we were talking to Chris Andrews before for the show that latter one the fourth quarter under has actually moved from 14 down to 13 A2 I still like it again the Chiefs 17 and2 to the under in

The second half this year and 18- one to the fourth quarter under that is as good as it gets if you’re looking at betting Trends and uh with the Super Bowl it’s all about Trends and with us this week it is all about props so I definitely wanted to highlight some of our

Favorites and we got about five minutes before we break before our Rush markazi joins us and wanted to highlight a couple of our favorite college basketball games because one that Alex and I are both on starts here in about 6 minutes and it’s in the SEC it is Old

Miss at number 15 South Carolina all of a sudden the Gamecocks one of the hottest teams in the country winners of five of their last six eight out of the last 10 their length three and a half I actually got a better number on this one early early this morning I got this

Gamecock at 3 you and I are both on South Carolina though in this game we are and you have a lot of numbers here for us which I mean I really South Carolina they’re 11-1 straight up at home and 8 and4 against the spread so I

Was really looking at that then I kind of looked to see if they already played since we’re into conference play here they haven’t played yet this year they did play last year and South Carolina has revenge cuz Old Miss knocked them out of the SEC tournament last year so I

Love that factor as well so them being at home and that Revenge I laid the three and a half here I’d still be okay with the four yeah Gamecocks hot playing at home I think Mei Johnson has a really big game and the other handicap for me

In this one was that old Miss is coming off of a home loss against Auburn where the Tigers out scored the rebels get this 56- 33 in the second half that was a game that all Miss L at the half and the wheels completely fell off I’ll take

The deeper and the hotter team in the South Carolina Gamecocks and one other game we definitely want to mention before we break is another one that starts at 3:30 ruter at Marland Maryland laying eight total at 125 and a half you think this one’s a defensive battle I do

And you know I didn’t really notice until diving into the numbers today both these teams on kenpom so we have red curse that’s third best adjusted defense efficiency in the country and then Maryland is the sixth best so I really do expect a defensive battle between

These two red cars are 15 and six to the under this year six and three on the road and Maryland 15 and seven to the under four- one to the under in their last five we’ll have other college basketball plays coming up including at least two right that you and I are both

On so if you want a squad ride with Alex and I we’ll have a couple more college basketball plays for you tonight in a loaded slate across the country we’ll St step aside here take a two-minute break when we return our man rash markazi joins us from Radio row about 6 miles

Night it was great I mean it’s not normally done at the uh football stadium where the Super Bowl will take place normally done at an arena or a baseball stadium so it was nice to go check out to Legion Stadium uh the uh the actual field that will be used during the Super

Bowl is get in a nice drench outside of the rain so it’s fantastic yeah the rain couldn’t have been timed more perfect for the uh the the the sodfa and and his company kind of running things there so you’ve covered a number of Super Bowls we were trying to figure out before we

Took the air how many you’ve covered we’ll say a dozen 10 to 12 Super Bowls how does this one compare at least so far in your experience with the leadup whether it’s from the media side from the fans perspective has Vegas done anything differently than a lot of the

Other Super Bowls at this point well it’s fantastic cuz Las Vegas is a city that I think most people want to go to if there’s not a Super Bowl and as you both know when uh when you are looking at going to the Super Bowl if

You can’t get a ticket to the game the next best place and sometimes probably the best place to be is in Las Vegas so now the actual Super Bowl game will be coming to Vegas and I do think you’ll see a lot of people again there’s a lot

Of talk shows that come out here and they come here for the week and then they go back home Friday or Saturday or first thing Sunday I guess a lot of people are going to want to hang around maybe go hang out with you guys at the

South Point and really enjoy Vegas Super Bowl week what’s your favorite part about media day radio row and everything leading up to the Super Bowl you know what it’s really catching up with a lot of people I mean you I mean this is one of those things where

You might watch someone’s talk show or be on their uh podcast or something and it’s really great to to see a lot of old friends and stuff like that but also the amazing events surrounding the Super Bowl you know when you talk about either you know you know Sha’s party or the

Maxim party or all these big events it is fun and it is one of those things where I always look forward to coming to the Super Bowl but the Super Bowl in Vegas as you guys done that is next level it’s incredible and one thing on

On Twitter that you posted at follow at Arash markazi on Twitter was that the NFL basically came out and said that allegion stadium is going to be added to the rotation of Super Bowl stadiums which incl Sofi in La Miami New Orleans and Tampa now Vegas kind of routing out

That starting five of Super Bowl stadiums was is it is it a surprise to you for the NFL to come out and say that before the Super Bowl was ever even actually played at allegion Stadium or they’ve just L the leadup to it that much no they really do love the

Footprint they love the fact that it’s at Mandalay Bay Alle Legion Stadium connected the Luxor the media Hotel the Excalibur you go down the list I mean they are all here in in uh you know in close proximity so this is sort of in line with New Orleans if you guys have

Ever gone to there for a a big event what makes it so great is you fly in you take your uh like uber lift or taxi and that’s it you don’t have to drive anymore and that’s the same with Las Vegas once you check in to the media

Hotel you walk to radio row you walk to the stadium you walk to grab a a bite to eat for a drink but uh it is very convenient and the league loves that very good we’re glad it’s convenient for you and I have to bring this up cuz

There was a lot of backlash on the media being um placed at luxur but you did tweet that it wasn’t that bad is that right it’s not bad at all in fact I’m I’m staying here a couple of nights I’m not of convenience listen I think the

Lck store takes a lot of unintended Strays for no reason and I’m not saying it’s uh the win or anything like that but listen for what you’re paying for night it’s it’s a fine facility I have stayed at a lot worse uh places but again no one should care we are the

Media I’m here on radio row I’m talking to you guys this is the Super Bowl in Las Vegas I’m just happy to be a part of it Arash markazi joining us here on Sports by the book uh media personality and starting the the sporting Tribune

Which we’ll get to in a minute but I wanted to take a step back describe for us if you will Arash when people hear radio row if you’re not a media member you really don’t know what that is so if you could Enlighten us a little bit for

The uninformed what is Radio row and for you as a writer sports Personality radio talk show host what does an average day look like in the leadup to the Super Bowl you know what I mean it’s really 247 but if you want to say like when’s

It you know really packed you would say maybe like 6:00 a.m. to maybe 6:00 p.m. it’s really like every talk station uh you know 160 plus are here you know you go down the list of like ESPN Fox Sports and you go down uh you know like all those TV personalities talk show

Personalities are here and then when when we begin to ramp things up well beginning a little bit Wednesday but more so Thursday Friday it’s really like a Who’s Who and they’re all walking around with a publicist and they all have something to pitch so it’s like do

You want to talk to Tony Romo okay well you got five minutes but you also got to plug this pizza company and you’re like uh sure whatever it’s it is it is uh chaos but it’s fantastic I really do love it I enjoy it I grew up watching it

On TV so it’s surreal uh to kind of have my own table and Booth here where we’ve gotten to talk to so many people so far I saw a clip from Boomer scas show this morning where it just kind of describes the nature of radio row and how the

Media is kind of just paraded around throughout the week they thought that they were getting Randy Moss Hall of Fame white out as a guest and then some horse racing talk on the side they were getting Randy Moss horse racing announcer who wanted to talk to some NFL

On the side and they found that out on the air live and you know it’s it’s I can only imagin being the horse racing Randy Moss coming in after seeing how disappointed they were that that that you were you and not and not Randy Moss

I thought that was so funny and kind of describes what it is because it is organized chaos at the end of the day I mean the number of people that you get pitched is pretty amazing from katp katp was in front of me and then you kind of

Have to figure out a way you know how can I uh shoe horn in a sports topic to a Carrot Top or something like that but it’s fun I mean it it’s it is I mean the reason that the Super Bowl is the Super Bowl right is like you don’t have to be

A sports fan I think it it’ll be the most watched uh television broadcast in human history three so I think everyone’s just uh wanting to figure out you know who’s your pick for the game or who’s your favorite team but it is so much fun I’m putting you on the spot but

Who’s your favorite guest that you’ve had on on radio row throughout the years you know what I mean it’s so much fun when you get to talk to someone that you grew up a fan of so I I I was a big fan of Barry Sanders uh growing up and

Uh so I got to talk to Barry Sanders he was doing a Super Bowl commercial a couple of years ago so again you know uh 10 minutes but uh when you get a chance to talk to Barry Sanders I mean that is a thrill and Arash wanted to get your

Thoughts on the game itself you know we we’ve talked about all the festivities surrounding it but in your opinion who do you like the 49ers laying two points with a total of 48 what are your thoughts on the game itself I like the Chiefs I like the over and I just um you

Know I’m still amazed by the point spread I’m I’m happy the point spread was what it was when I got to Vegas and the 49ers were favored by two and a half I I just like the Chiefs and again close game much like it was last year late

Field goal to win it uh but I just like San Francisco I’m sorry I like Kanas City yeah I love I love the Chiefs but I can’t I can’t believe that the 49ers are still favored and I think it’s a lot of just even action kind of on both sides

We’ve heard Chris Andrews talking and then that’s only going to get more throughout the week I think a lot of the late money is going to come in on the Chiefs and the over Arash one last question before we let you go nothing to do do with football you were posting on

Your social media about some of the World Cup games coming to Sofi stadium in Los Angeles wanted to get your thoughts on that because the US has not hosted a World Cup game at all in a while and then the other day when they switched the World Cup final site from

Jerry world and Arlington to MetLife Stadium in New Jersey uh you you want to talk about a non-w walkable event just your thoughts on the World Cup coming in 20206 and what kind of an impact it’s going to have on soccer in the US I’m

Very pumped for it I mean I mean that’s one of the reasons why I I kind of love where we’re at right now in terms of being at the epicenter of the Sports World with Los Angeles and Las Vegas so Los Angeles will be hosting a lot of big

Games not the final they did not configure the field to be soccer friendly again they’re not even getting a semifinal uh game but you’re 100% right I’m glad you said New Jersey because they’re going to say the final is in New York well not quite you have

To get on a bus or you know a train and get out to New Jersey for the game um I I totally understand I was a kid back in ’94 when the Rose Bowl hosted a ton of Big World Cup games so I’m just happy that the World sport soccer will be

Played uh the World Cup is coming here still bumed by the way that Las Vegas is not in that rotation I get that they wanted to either host a semi-final or something like that but it is an amazing soccer venue I I’ve seen a few games out

There and what an amazing crowd and of course the World Cup final going to be played on the much maligned Turf I should say GR I should say the the non- turf at MetLife Stadium let alone the story line with the 49ers practice facility this week which whoever’s idea

It was to put a grass field on top of a turf field with nothing in the middle that leaves a lot to be desired but that is a story for another day he’s Arash markazi Arash thanks so much for joining us I’ve been looking forward to having

You for a while and was glad that we were able to connect the founder CEO of sporting Tribune how can people find you what can they look for the Sporting tribune.com again we cover Southern California Las Vegas uh Hawaii and again love the South Point got that uh San

Diego Southern California Vibe with a the delmare uh you know de Deli where you can get a great sandwich I I’ll be stopping by to see you guys at some point uh but thanks so much for having me on it’s a thrill absolutely there he goes Arash markazi of the sporting

Tribune joining us for his debut here on the South Point Studios and uh yeah I love love arash’s content was glad to kind of get his thoughts on the stuff around the Super Bowl we’ve been talking so much about the numbers and the betting but it is a spectacle and it

Happens to be in our backyard and nobody better to tell us about that than Raj I’m excited I’m going to go to Radio row probably Thursday Friday I’ll have to look for him and hopefully he’s still there throughout the week but yeah it was a perfect setup because you’re right

A lot of people who haven’t been have no idea what we’re really talking about when we say radio row so he did a great job breaking it down I thought that was interesting you’ll likely see that clip later on our on our social media I think it’s important to kind of tell people

What the experience is like from our side of the of the counter because they don’t they don’t hear us talking about it enough right right exactly but yeah one of get arash’s thoughts on the game and yeah the the World Cup final as well at much maligned MetLife Stadium uh

They’re going to have some some debacles about the grass in that one but that is for 2026 so not for a while but wanted to continue our college basketball talk because there is an absolutely loaded slate tonight and a lot of games featuring ranked teams we’ve already

Talked about uh one of them with Old Miss and South Carolina we’re both on the Gamecock you’ll see our picks uh later on in the show and at the end especially another one that starts at 4:00 you can watch this one on on ESPN 633 634 on the betting rotation it’s

Clemson heading north to Chapel Hill to take on number three North Carolina Tar Hills laying 6 and a half that’s a number that I like as a home favorite UNCC has been phenomenal especially when they get really rolling in ACC play in years recently they’ve been really good

And they’ve been really good at covering numbers I went ahead and just took them on the money line just to be safe they are coming off a big game against Duke that they did win but man we really missed an opportunity last week Matt we were talking about them against Georgia

Tech and we both stayed away from them that day which is surprising because we both do usually back the tar Hills but it was a good decision and it was clearly a look ahead game for them going into their game against Duke so just once again reiterating college

Basketball look for those spots yeah part of the handicap for me on this one was recency because these two teams played each other in early January North Carolina 10-point winners Armando Bott had a big game 14 points 16 rebounds I think that’s the trend that continues tonight and that game was in Clemson

This game in Chapel Hill I it’s a huge homecourt Advantage for him and they won by 10 I really like the six and a half RJ Davis also the number I think 11 score in the country he’s averaging over 21 points per game but in his last two

Games Alex he has been hot hot hot 26 or sorry 36 and 28 points in his last two games both Tar Heels wins both Tar Heels covers and the trend I told you about pre-show I didn’t tell you the trend itself UNC since 2012 when coming off of

A regular season win against Duke okay and they’re greater than two-point favorites in the next game 17-0 straight up and against the spread wow so they take momentum from beating Duke and ride it into their next game way way way more often than not I mean 17 times in the

Last 13 years that’s certainly a trend that you can bet and this is a great team I mean you got to take into consideration each team is different year by year but this North Carolina team is finally getting the respect they deserve they’re sitting at three on the

Rankings and well deserved I mean they have playing outstanding basketball and this is a better Clemson team than we’ve seen in years past but they are struggling in the ACC they’re four and six in their last 10 all ACC games whereas North Carolina 10 and one in the

ACC that Georgia Tech game their only loss in conference play so I’m on the tar Hills Lang the 6 and a half Alex is on the tar Hills money line at a bigger number that game starts at 4 ESPN another one that we were both taking a

Look at that starts at 5 number 21 BYU in Norman taking on Oklahoma soon ERS uh actually laying 2 and a half in a total of 150 BYU always brings elevated totals I was surprised to see this Oklahoma team that’s kind of going the wrong direction laying two points against BYU

I I think the home court has something to do with that I was going to say I think that is just it right there that homecourt Advantage here I didn’t play this one I was looking at BYU though um I thought this game could have even been

A pick so getting two points I think that is that’s the deal there they are the better team I mean they’re ninth overall on Kemp pal nth adjusted offense and 24th adjusted defense efficiency so I I do like the Cougars and BYU in their first year in the Big 12 trying to take

Advantage of a soft middle portion of their schedule it’s their sixth straight game against non-ranked opponents which in the Big 12 which has six teams ranked right now and nine teams projected to get into the NCA tournament the fact that BYU has played six in a row that are unranked that’s huge that’s

Remarkable in that conference the other note that I had in this one BYU’s got seven players averaging nine or more points per game they are one of of the most balanced teams and one of the top defensive teams in all of college basketball uh and the other one for

Oklahoma they lost three of their last four so they’re going to try and slow down this BYU team that leads the country in three-pointers made a game they’re making over 12 three-pointers a game but that’s the style that they play in Provo so I like BYU I took money line

At plus 110 okay as a as a two-point dog and another big 12 dog that I like is Iowa State number 14 Iowa State taking on Texas in Austin 641 642 on the betting rotation the Longhorns laying 2 and A2 total of 139 A2 I like Iowa State

In this one I definitely grabbed the two points debated about the money line but you have something to say about that I’m interested to hear but I mean it’s really just all about this Iowa State Defense they are so good they’re fifth in adjusted defense efficiency on Ken

Palom and they keep proving it night in after night out they’ve already had a big win on the road they almost did in their last game so I think they’ll keep this close here and the the thing that I like about Iowa State getting two points

And the reason typic Al if I see a line of two and a half or three and I like the dog I’ll just lay money line you’re going to get plus value on it anywhere up to like plus 120 130 this one I took the two points with Iowa State because

Their last game against Baylor they were down two at the second and a half they thought that they had banked in a game-winning three-pointer however on the review the tip of the ball the raised edge of the ball was on the raised edge of the finger and the shot

Was waved off and they lost by two so I think it’s going to be another pretty close game but I like Iowa State to take down Texas Kon Gilbert who we know from his time at UNLV having a phenomenal year under former UNLV head coach TJ otzelberger uh Gilbert one of the best

Defensive bigger point guards in the country he’s a 64 point guard and he plays defense like his hair’s on fire we saw that uh plenty here uh this is the only match up between these two teams on the year and the home team won each matchup last year so I like Iowa State

To Buck that Trend kashan Gilbert from a scoring perspective though he’s scored 15 or more points in four straight games he had 24 in that game against against Baylor so if hon Gilbert can score I like Iowa State to win that game uh and we’re we’re both on the dog in this one

So you took the points a little on the money line took the points little on the money line I did just for full disclosure for fun I took BYU money line Iowa State money line parlay them together I got just over 3 to one I

Think it was like 312 plus 312 so if you’re looking for a parlay always tough to Lay Road dogs these are two Road dogs that I like and they happen to be back toback in the rotation number so just for fun I I threw some some pizza money

That I mean just to give you a shout out you did hit one of those last week where you tied up to um Underdog money line like that I I had a lot of dogs last week and conventional wisdom you see my little smile there tells you to not

Tease college basketball and I rarely rarely if ever do I don’t know what came over me this was on Saturday thre leg six point rather fivepoint college basketball teaser that hit by I think a combined Four Points oh my God so I had to sweat out brown I had to sweat out

Wyoming who was the third I forget who the third one was but yeah three-leg bunny l or three-leg teaser with all dogs that hit I’ll take what I can get not doing that today but I I like the money line parlay if you wanted just an

Extra you know three to one value on on a couple of Road dogs in the Big 12 uh you’ve got a couple of totals that you like one of them in a ranked match up 643 644 on the rotation number number 25 New Mexico who barely barely stayed in

The AP Top 25 after falling in their last game takes on uh where am I looking here takes on Wyoming in larmy at at 5:30 total on this one only 155 that’s that’s a high total but for this Lobos team that is low only 155 that’s right I

Do like this over both of these teams have been playing much faster they did play already this year and that was a a very low final score 77-60 but it was also a slower Pace than these two play both teams are 4- one to the over in

Their last five and New Mexico I mean really it’s all about their offense their 38 adjusted offense efficiency and then on the flip side Wyoming they don’t have very um strong defense 223rd adjusted defense on Ken pal so I’ll go ahead and take this over here in the

Mountain West I like that as well definit lean for me that game starts at 5:30 so we’ve got some time uh to look at that and handicap it you also like two other Road teams in the Mountain West you like Nevada catching 5 and a half at number 22 Utah State and number

24 San Diego State Ling 9 and a half at Air Force so I do like SDSU 11 is a really big number but it is Air Force and I know how you feel about the Falcons as well but I think I money lined them with my North Carolina play

So I kind of did a money line favorites um getting close to even money parlay yes getting close to even money exactly so that one just to be safe they are on the road but I do think that stsu is the right side in that one and Nevada five

And a half points I just think that is way too much I know this Utah state is pretty good and slightly better than the wolf pack but Nevada’s got revenge from last year Utah State won 7566 so I think they’ll be ready to play in this one and

Utah State’s one of those teams where as their big man great osore goes so do they if Nevada is able to lock him down with a lot of the size and depth at that position that they do I I really like that and then you were actually more on

I remember we were talking pre-show you were more on the under in San Diego State Air Force that game at 133 and half as of right now I like that under as well San Diego State one of the best defensive teams not only on the west

Coast but in the country and this Air Force team that really really struggles they also run the two3 zone defense perpetually for the entirety of the game for the entirety of the year and a team like San Diego State that is well coached and as as deep at the guard

Position as it gets in the country especially Jaden Le the way to beat the zone defense is to shoot your way past it and I think San Diego State’s going to do enough I like the under though I do like the under too I I made it about

125 so I think you’re getting some value there it’s at 1332 usually looking for about fivepoint difference there so you’re right I do agree with you on that play as well last one we’ll take a look at I don’t know if you have a play on

This one I do uh I’m on Ohio State the Buckey is laying five and a half at home against Indiana in a big 10 matchup 609 610 on the betting rotation uh Ohio State 65th in kenpom I Indiana 99th but they’re 254th in terms of defensive efficiency

This hooer team has no interest in playing defense um the other note in this one is that if Ohio state gets up or is up in the second half they’re 302nd in the country in Pace out of 362 teams so if they get up they’re going to

Slow this one to a snails pace and I I think that they’re going to be able to maintain a lead this one may come down to a late free throw but I’m going to lay it with the Buckeyes also take a look at the over on this one 141 a half

Is the total Iowa or Ohio State I should say has allowed 79 or more points in their last four games they’re also coming in Desperate the Buckeyes have lost four in a row they’re three and eight Big 10 play so they’re looking to turn their season around in a major way

In front of a home crowd in Columbus I like Ohio State minus 5 and a half do you have any thoughts one way or another on this game that starts right when we get off the air here in about 10 minutes I mean Indiana hasn’t been uh too great

Right just one and four straight up two and three ATS in their last five and on the road they’re three and six this year and three five and one against the spread so I thought the number was right I do think these two are um pretty even

Matched but I would go with the home team here I just think six is a lot any other Hoops games you got you got action on or taking a look at on the the college realm or is that a pretty good summation of what you’re uh what you’re

Taking a look at for this evening I think that is I think you um summed it up very good I mean I would say Houston coming off a loss to Kansas I think they are going to um have their way here with Oklahoma State and the Cowboys but 21 points I

Was I was looking to the under there but I don’t know I don’t know what we’re going to expect from Houston I was thinking if we had a Oklahoma State team total I could go under that but not not not with a spread that big yeah did you

Watch any of that game Houston Kansas last weekend um I don’t remember so it was in it was in Lawrence Kansas absolutely ran them out of the gym in the first half had a big time lead going into the second half and then all of a sudden

Houston came creeping back at one point it was a 10-point game and uh it Bill self called a timeout up I think 10 with like 2 minutes left I don’t think I’ve ever seen him more mad at at a team than he was at his own in that situation so

Houston kind of found away late in that game for them it was just too little too late but it’s kind of an interesting conundrum you’ve got with with Kelvin Samson’s team it’s the top defensive team in the country bar nun it’s just a matter of where the offense comes from

And where the offense comes from at a 21o spread the the total is at 128 so you are thinking that Houston absolutely railroads Oklahoma State tonight and limits them to like 45 points if you like them to cover that number I would even think about just laying the 21 or

Rather taking the 21 with Oklahoma State just because of how big that number is and how defense Centric this Houston team is yeah I mean that does make sense I’m not advising a play but that’s just at least my my thinking on that right yeah I mean really stay away for me

Either way because I think we kind of just broke it down that the numbers are just about right on the side end the total yeah big slate definitely take a look at your local listings and uh take a look at some of the numbers we we’ll

Flash our place here at the end of the show uh any NBA notes for today from you because the one note that I’ve got and it’s really interesting especially for general public betters who love hitting favorites the NBA over the last two days has had 15 games all across the

Association the favorites 15-0 straight up 12 and three against the spread that is a crazy run for faves that is that’s incredible do you have any favorites that you are leaning to tonight based off of those numbers one favorite that I am leading to is one of the only two

Road favorites in what is that eight games and it’s the Dallas Mavericks playing in a back-to-back against the Brooklyn Nets who were also on a back toback the Mavs defeated the 76ers uh without Joel embiid he’s expected to miss a couple of weeks with the KNE

Procedure 118 to 102 was the final there the Nets got crushed by The Warriors final score doesn’t show how lopsided this game was 109 to 98 was the final there and I like the Mavericks to come in with something to prove and Luca still with the MVP chance really have a

Big game Kyrie scored 29 last night I think tonight’s Luca’s time to shine not a huge play for me but Mavericks minus three and a half in a game that starts in about a half an hour I I like Dallas here I like it and you know what with

NBA if you can get some ingame and they go down at any point you can get even money with the MS just to win outright so that might be something I’m looking at but Dallas I mean you’re right even on the road they’ve been very good 14

And N against the spread this year so the biggest favorite of the night certainly not a play that I’ll have in the uh on on the card but the Knicks about a 15-point favorite against the Grizzlies if if you’ve got two working arms two working legs and a somewhat

Operational mind do you have a chance to suit up for the Memphis Grizzlies they have been the most hurt team that I can remember in the NBA I think the number was 13 different players on their injury report for their most recent game oh my gosh uh you know Derrick Rose John

Morant stepen Adams it’s like their entire starting lineup has been gone two or three times over uh I don’t think I’ve seen a more injured team than the Memphis Grizzlies just bad luck for them this year yes terrible luck and now they have lost five straight so I don’t know

If we can take that those points even though it is a lot of points in the NBA and congratulations to Ryan Ary diako who broke an NBA record in his most recent game it’s not the record you want would you believe that the former uh final four MVP for Villanova 15 straight

Games without recording a point no he has played in 15 games in a row and not scored he’s just out there getting cardio in no I did not know that that’s yeah Ryan Archie Dio congratulations he had a storyed college career has not been quite the same uh since moving to

The association we’ll finish up on some hockey Alex has one play that she really likes tonight and one that L ficaro predicted what was that last week yes yeah we’ll we’ll get to that one in a minute but the play that you really like is uh on game number 156 in the betting

Rotation Flyers at Panthers in Sunrise Florida just outside Miami so you did such a good job getting all your information and I meant to look back because I remember last year after the allstar game really these teams like buckling down playing tougher more meaningful games and their defense

Really um come to life here at the end of the season so I need to go back and double check that but you know I love my unders in hockey so tonight we are going with the Flyers Panthers under six Flyers are 15 and9 to the under on the road this year

Um ersen I I hope that’s right eight and four to the under he’ll be in net for Phil Philadelphia the Panthers are 30 and 18 to the under and then we’ve got babaski he is 23 and 13 to the under this season now he was at the allstar

Game and in the challenges but you know I think that just keeps goalies fresh so yeah honestly I think I think this is a good play here under six I’ve got an NHL play today love it I don’t I don’t often I’m a I’m a penguins guy they’ve been

Tough to bet on this year just because they’re so old I guess and and unpredictable it’s it’s they’re pretty good they are they are solid but you know with age comes Beauty at least in on the on the ice like fine wine or so they say um but my play is in the

Carolinas tonight I like the Hurricanes against the Canucks welcoming the Canucks into PNC Arena about 10 minutes from where my mom lives um the can’s 152 and two at home this year and coming off at that decently long break they had a day off before the All-Star break even

So their their break was a day longer than everybody else I I like the canes to continue that home success tonight yeah and you know the conu did have a lot of players that were actually there for all-star weekend it’s weird there there was a lot of teams that were kind

Of left out um Vancouver was not one of them so we even saw yesterday it seemed like a little bit of a trend Colorado going down who else was it well it was Colorado and the Rangers so that’s a little different but um yeah I think

This will be a great game to watch the Vancouver’s for real and the hurricanes have been for the last couple years yeah some interesting hockey action going on tonight and as we get closer to the Super Bowl stay tuned to South Point Studios for more shorts live shows and

Then of course Race Day Las Vegas punchlines and here on Sports by the book it’s going to be fluid the rest of the week I’ll be in studio in some capacity helping out tomorrow uh Jeff parl looks like he’s going to be over at Allegiance Stadium on radio row getting
