00:00Rich, we highlighted before we came on here, on the betting side of things, it is so challenging
00:09coming into bowl season to know what you're really going to get.
00:12You had a matchup like this one today where I guess there was more on the line than we've
00:16ever seen before.
00:17And now it's not so much of, you know, trying to prognosticate that who's trending in the
00:21right direction.
00:22It's trying to figure out who's actually going to be there out on the field trying to get
00:26the reps in.
00:27Yeah.
00:28I mean, listen, no, we did talk about it before we came on the air.
00:31You got to be very careful.
00:33You and I compared it to NFL preseason.
00:36It's about as predictable as an NFL game in mid-August because, you know, there's so many
00:42factors at play here, and this is outside of the playoff games.
00:46I'm so happy we have meaningful December and January football when it comes to the 12-team
00:51playoff because I don't know what we're going to get.
00:54You have so many opt-outs, either kids preparing for the NFL draft, talented day one, day two
01:01players.
01:02You have a ton of kids in the portal.
01:04Portal opened up December 9th, closes December 28th.
01:07Those portal players are not going to be playing in their bowl games.
01:11In fact, earlier today we learned that the Marshall Thundering Heard, they were supposed
01:16to be playing Army, I think it was December 28th, in a bowl game.
01:20They had so many opt-outs after their coach Charles Huff left for Southern Miss.
01:25They don't feel like they're going to have the depth to play.
01:27The entire team opted out.
01:29So Marshall no longer playing in a bowl game.
01:32They're going to be replaced by five and seven Louisiana Tech.
01:35So postseason in college football is a bit of a mess.
01:40So I would say buyer beware if you want to wager on any of these non-playoff games.
