00:00Friday night, 7.30 p.m. Eastern, Joe.
00:02How about this game?
00:02Cal taking on Virginia Tech.
00:04It's still weird trying to say this is an ACC matchup, but it is.
00:07This line, Joe, look ahead, minus 3.5.
00:09I'm seeing 5.5 now as a favorite towards Virginia Tech,
00:12and a total of under 50, now seeing it over 50 here.
00:16The spread line for California and Virginia Tech is what, Joe?
00:20Donnie, we started on Monday.
00:22I said we got to keep an eye on this game
00:24because something doesn't smell right here.
00:25I mean, Cal, first of all, the teams have complete opposite records, right?
00:30Cal is 5-2.
00:31Virginia Tech is 2-5.
00:33Virginia Tech opened up as a 2.5, 3-point favorite at home
00:38at Blacksburg on a Friday night, which we know,
00:41Sandman and the whole thing, it's pretty crazy, right?
00:44But as of yesterday, Donnie, I watched this thing get steamed up
00:47to minus 6 in a bunch of spots, and I'm baffled.
00:51I mean, you're giving almost a touchdown with a Virginia Tech team
00:56that just fired their coach a month ago.
00:58They're sitting at 2-5, and oh, yeah, Justin Wilcox, the Cal coach,
01:03this guy isn't just good, Donnie.
01:04He has been an absolute ATM machine in this price range as a dog,
01:0929-16 against the spread as an underdog.
01:13He has covered this number 65% of the time since he's at Cal
01:17in this spot as a dog.
01:19It's one of the more reliable trends.
01:20It's a moneymaker.
01:22You want to give me nearly a touchdown with a 2-5 team,
01:26with an interim coach?
01:28Yeah, no, I'm good.
01:29I'll take Cal in this one.
