00:00Tonight, we do have college football outside of the MAAC on a Thursday night.

00:04That's Troy and Old Dominion.

00:05This game's going to take place at 7.30 p.m. Eastern tonight.

00:08Opening line, below 10 points.

00:11Where does it sit game day?

00:12Over 10 points.

00:1311.5 listed across the board, and a total, that's 52.5 points.

00:18Troy, ODU tonight.

00:20What's the spread line for you, Joe?

00:22Well, this is interesting, Donnie, this line here, right?

00:25Opens up ODU 10.5.

00:27We're up to 12, even 12.5 in some spots.

00:31But, Donnie, look at the records of these two teams there.

00:34It's not like you've got a 7-2 team taking on a, you know, a 1-8 team.

00:40No, you've got two teams that are 4-1 in the Sun Belt in conference play,

00:456-3 altogether on the season.

00:48So how is one team a 12, 12.5-point favorite over the other?

00:54And the answer is the underlying metrics here.

00:57I mean, neither of these teams have played since November 1st, but ODU has clearly been

01:03the better team.

01:04The problem that they've had this year, Donnie, is they've turned the ball over 20 times.

01:1020 times.

01:11You want to talk about incredibly bad luck, Donnie?

01:14They have lost 11 of their 18 fumbles.

01:18That's not, that's just bad luck.

01:20They have this kid, Colton Joseph, at quarterback, Donnie.

01:23I love him.

01:24He's one of the more exciting quarterbacks that you'll see in college football here today.

01:2819 TD passes.

01:30He also has nine interceptions here.

01:32So if you take the turnovers away, my goodness, I mean, ODU is a absolute monster here.

01:39Even despite all those turnovers, Donnie, they're still 4-1 in conference.

01:44Bottom line is there is a reason why Troy is a 12-point underdog in this one.

01:50ODU, for me, as long as they don't turn the ball over.

01:52Onda!

01:53He's a 12-point member for me.

01:53He just trades to work with us, actually.

01:57That's the only reason why Troy is so smart.

01:58The way here is, I guess, is the right one at the top.

02:00To be a little k Woodman, who We Grind Isандpy is actually never born.

02:04And then they just have a little more open into it.

02:05So if we're and your people, come on, you are walking with us to walk in the park anduly button.

02:08And then there's also a posse here to go.

02:10And it's our experience between us.

02:10And when you read the park and the academy calls have rather than the university of Faculty of

02:13the Leks BayÉ.

02:14That's a great idea.

02:15That always there is a little bigkon net?!"

02:17We're going to beLAUnie, come on www.
