00:00There is a monster college football game coming up this weekend.
00:03Ohio State is on the road at Texas.
00:05Two-part question.
00:07One, where is the money going?
00:08But two, how much will this handle rival a NFL game,
00:12and could it possibly surpass some of the lower-level NFL games
00:16with the interest on Saturday?
00:18Well, it's already surpassed some of the lower-level NFL games.
00:23Currently, we're looking at 67% of the money overall on Texas,
00:2887% of the master money is on Ohio State.
00:31However, it's low volume.
00:33Generally, the master money is looking at minus one or plus two,
00:37which the line at one and a half looks pretty strong and settled,
00:41looking at where that master money is right now, as low volume as it is.
00:46Are you expecting a gigantic in-game handle for that game?
00:51I imagine so.
00:53I mean, last week it showed up with some of these games.
00:55The handle crushed the pregame.
00:57I think some of them were around 70%, 75% live versus the pregame on this,
01:02which is kind of going another level beyond the 50-50 that we were kind of at
01:09last season, that it's really leaning into this live action.
01:13And I think with the prediction markets and all these other things,
01:17there's just a lot of people trading between these two worlds,
01:21arbitrages or just looking for best prices in certain spots.
01:24So on the live side, I'm definitely seeing it picking up this season.
01:29All right.
01:30One of the many locales you call home is Michigan,
01:33and they had one of the most controversial and ridiculous endings in college
01:38football history last week,
01:39where they had the Hail Mary with a second being put back on the clock for a
01:42second Hail Mary against Western Michigan.
01:45They are hosting an Oklahoma team that I love.
01:48I have a 35-1 ticket on them to win it all, but I am not alone.
01:52This number opened, I'm imagining somewhere around five and a half or six and a half
01:55for you guys.
01:56And this feels like the public play, the trap, whatever you want to call it,
02:02line of the weekend where everyone's going to go one way and this game is going to
02:06go a different way.
02:07What are you seeing from Michigan hosting Oklahoma this weekend?
02:10Yeah.
02:11So overall, we've got about 53% of the money on Oklahoma.
02:1582% of the master money is on Michigan.
02:18I did notice there's a heavy, heavy money line action on Oklahoma,
02:23about 86% of the money line action there.
02:26But when I pulled up the master charts, sort of the go on Michigan,
02:29plus seven, plus six and a half, plus six, plus five and a half.
02:32And then on the flip side, heavy Oklahoma, minus four and a half,
02:36minus five, and a little bit of five and a half.
02:38So it looks like the numbers found its spot right now.
02:41But yeah, still very heavy Michigan on the masters.
02:45Minus five, minus five and a half.
02:49Michigan's plus five, five and a half, six where that is.
02:53And a little, they even went up as high as seven.
02:56My gosh, you've seen Michigan football for a long time.
03:00That's a pretty big number for a home dog in the big house.
03:02Is it not?
03:04It felt that way when I first saw it.
03:06You know, again, coming off last week,
03:08everyone's just sort of thrown them out.
03:12But yeah, it felt big when I first saw the numbers pop up this week.
