00:00Give us the card, the best bet, what you like here on this Saturday.
00:04Mentioned it a few minutes ago.
00:05I love Houston today.
00:06I love them at minus 20 and a half.
00:08I just think Connor Wegman and Houston are going to come out.
00:11I like them overall on the season we just talked about.
00:14I just, I love Houston in this spot.
00:16I'm also playing Alabama minus 27 and a half.
00:18I know we talked earlier about not laying big numbers.
00:21This is a spot where Kalen DeBoer and this Alabama team have pounded non-Power 5 schools.
00:27Sure, they lost the Florida State that's allegedly a Power 5 school, but the non-Power 5 schools,
00:33Louisiana Monroe, 73-0, Eastern Illinois, 56-0, Western Kentucky, 63-0, South Florida, 42-16, Mercer, 52-7.
00:42This is where Alabama shines.
00:44I have no problem laying the 27 and a half.
00:46I did it all the time when Nick Saban was there.
00:49You might not like DeBoer in Tuscaloosa, but he is somebody who consistently beats up on the non-Power 5
00:55teams.
00:56We mentioned Texas Tech plus 46, 47, 48-and-a-half should be 50, 60, 100.
01:02It's a spot where Kirby Smart just does not cover big spreads.
01:05I also like Clemson versus LSU under 51.
01:09Two top 10 defenses, offenses that are under construction with new quarterbacks, a lot of new players on LSU.
01:16I'm not ready to back them yet.
01:18I know you're on Clemson, but I'm going to take the under 51-and-a-half in Clemson versus LSU.
01:24All right, guys, sets us up here really nicely.
01:27There are a couple of picks here that we feel very, very strongly about, and usually I like to save
01:32that for the last spot.
01:33This is a noon kick, so I want everybody to get in while the getting is good.
01:36That is North Texas plus 40-and-a-half.
01:39It's my favorite bet here on this card today.
01:42I think that getting Neil Brown at this number could be a once-in-a-coaching-tenure opportunity.
01:50I think this is a team that will hang around here, relatively speaking, against Indiana.
01:56Under Signetti in week one, they've won by 24-and-13.
02:00I think there's a lot of thought that, oh, well, that means they'll just decide to win by 50 this
02:05year.
02:06As somebody who fully believes in Fernando Mendoza, it really kind of aligns with my thought that Hoover could be
02:13a bit of a step back here for this team.
02:15They're a run-first, defense-first group.
02:17I think this is a plus 40-and-a-half spot for the mean green.
02:20We're going to take a shot on UConn.
02:23Minus 19-and-a-half.
02:24Jason Candle comes over for Toledo here against Lafayette.
02:28He kind of had a history at Toledo of running it up against these FCS schools.
02:33New school, time to impress.
02:35I think they cover the 19-and-a-half.
02:38We're taking a shot on Baylor.
02:40Loss, 7-and-a-half here with DJ Lagway and the boys at a neutral site against Auburn.
02:45Texas Tech, Abedin Christian over the 59-and-a-half.
02:49Guys, these teams played two years ago.
02:52So, you almost won't believe it, but your final score was 52-51, Texas Tech, in overtime.
03:02This is a revenge spot for McGuire.
03:05Last year, he hung 60 in each of these games.
03:07Abedin Christian a little bit better maybe than they showed in their opener.
03:10I think this game flies through the 59-and-a-half.
03:14I like Oregon to score 21 in the opening half against Boise.
03:17They've always been good at home in Eugene scoring to start games.
03:21I do like Texas and Arch Manning to shoot through that 44-and-a-half on their team total.
03:26They can hang a 50-burger on Texas State.
03:29Late night under Cal, UCLA.
03:31I like both these coaching hires, but I think that's on the defensive side of the ball.
03:35Everyone's excited about the quarterbacks.
03:36I like defense, defense, defense.
03:37And then I will ask you, Dave, just kind of one more time to drive it home for people
03:40on what is the big game of the day.
03:42Clemson, LSU.
03:43I'm on Clemson, plus 10-and-a-half.
03:46Dabo Sweeney at this kind of number.
03:48I cannot pass up.
03:49I think they hang here and maybe even put Kiffin on upset alert.
