00:00We're actually going out to the real Las Vegas for this game.
00:02UCLA versus UNLV, 405-406 on the rotation at 8 o'clock start out in Vegas.
00:07Light favorite to UCLA, Joe, at the opening number.
00:09Two, two and a halves.
00:10We're now seeing one and a half.
00:11So a little bit of a backtracking here.
00:13UNLV and UCLA total, 55 and a half.
00:15Don, they got abused last week by Dampierre and Utah.
00:20And we talk about the overreaction from week one to week two.
00:25I don't care if Nico is there playing or not.
00:29They have to run the football, UCLA.
00:32Deshaun Foster has to win this game.
00:35Here's the thing.
00:36I don't think whoever plays quarterback tonight throws it.
00:39Just run on that front seven of UNLV.
00:42They're giving up five yards per carry.
00:45This is a big public play.
00:46A lot of so-called sharps love UNLV.
00:49Back them up.
00:50When you get a spread with this type of overreaction in a week two matchup
00:55where you had a home team get abused as a five and a half point dog.
01:00And now they go on the road.
01:01I like the road atmosphere.
01:03I just like the matchup too.
01:04And I'm not sold on UNLV's front seven.
01:07Dan Mullen's a great offensive minded head coach.
01:09He doesn't coach defense.
01:11That defense has taken a step back.
01:13I believe UCLA wins a high scoring affair.
01:16They win it by double digits.
01:17Be all that you can be, Joe.
01:18Army, Kansas State.
01:20A lot of people talking about Army this week.
01:21Is it possible pulling it up?
01:22Come on, stop it.
01:23Minus 16 and a half is now up to minus 17 and a half, Joe,
01:26depending on where you're shopping at.
01:27And how about there's a total of 47 and a half in an Army game?
01:30Is Kansas State just too strong on the ground?
01:32Or can Army, Black Knights, stick this one out?
01:35Well, here's the thing.
01:36And I just want to get the actual number, Donnie, just so we know.
01:40They're giving up 116 rushing odds per game, K-State, right?
01:45Struggled against Iowa State.
01:47Struggled last week.
01:48They had to pull the game out 38-35.
01:50And you had Army lose outright as a seven and a half point home favorite
01:54to Tarleton State.
01:56So you tell me, you know, playing the triple option is very difficult,
02:00especially when you have no preparation.
02:03I just don't like the way Kansas State is playing right now.
02:05Forget the offense.
02:06Their defense is not good.
02:07You had an FCS opponent put up 35 points on your team,
02:11and now you're laying 17 and a half at home?
02:14I love Army today.
02:16I think Army potentially could be live, that overreaction.
02:19I know that they're not the same team with Bayley.
02:22Who'd they get beat by?
02:23Tarleton State last week, Army?
02:25Yeah.
02:2630-27.
02:27They had an opportunity to win it in OT.
02:30The kid missed.
02:30Anytime you have to rely on an evil, an academy kicker,
02:36basically a 30-yarder, he shanked it.
02:38Oh, man.
02:38So you can't trust the academy kickers?
02:41Whether they're the lowest or the low?
02:43Basically.
02:43I mean, I'll put it this way.
02:46I'm just saying this.
02:48If a game is on the line, you need a Navy kicker.
02:52The guy's going into battle in two weeks.
02:54He can't make an extra point?
02:55Come on.
02:55From a mindset perspective, I'm not – listen, we thanked them for their service.
03:01I loved them, okay?
03:02Yeah.
03:02But the bottom line is if you have a bet and you have an academy kicker
03:06with a field goal or an extra point, you've got to hold your breath.
03:08What's his range, 27 yards?
03:1027 yards?
03:11The kid shanked it from, like, 30.
03:13It wasn't even close.
