00:00 All right, everybody. Welcome back.
00:02 It is Friday, and that means it's time to place your bets.
00:05 I am Mike Hadluck from WEEI.
00:07 He is Taylor Kyles from CLNS Media.
00:10 As you know, our odds are presented by Fanduel,
00:15 but this segment here is powered by OddsR.

00:29 but OddsR is also an app where you literally just go in,
00:31 gives you all the analysis, all the details.
00:33 It tells you what to bet, what you maybe shouldn't bet.
00:36 It's green for go. It's yellow for maybe. It's red for no.
00:40 It's as simple as that. It's like a traffic light for betting.
00:42 So if you go to oddsr.com/presspass,
00:45 you can go check that out, get a 30-day free trial on us.
00:50 But what we're gonna do is try and give you our analysis of these games,
00:53 then you can go to OddsR and check that out.
00:55 So first, we're gonna go to Patriots at Jets.
01:00 We're gonna talk about it here,
01:00 and then me and Taylor are actually gonna head down to New York tomorrow
01:03 to check out this game on Sunday.
01:05 The Patriots are -2.5 favorites, according to Fanduel.
01:10 - Finally. - Yeah, seriously. Finally favorites.
01:13 -152 on the money line. The total is 36.5.
01:18 Me and Taylor have been diving into this game all week,
01:21 but big sort of tentpoles of it are the fact that Zach Wilson is in,
01:26 Aaron Rodgers is obviously out.
01:28 Patriots cornerback Marcus Jones just went on IR yesterday,
01:31 so he's gonna be out for a while.
01:33 Patriots just signed Will Greer. Thought that was kind of interesting.
01:36 That has nothing to do with this game per se,
01:37 but that third quarterback, Carus, oh man, has been all over the place.
01:41 But Pats again going to the Meadowlands,
01:44 and they are finally favorites on Fanduel.
01:47 So what do you make of this matchup, Taylor?
01:49 I know you've done your three keys.
01:50 I know we'll have our eyes obviously on guys like Garrett Wilson versus Christian Gonzalez,
01:54 but with Zach Wilson in the mix and with the success they've had against him,
01:59 not only 4-0 against him in his career, but 14-0 against the Jets in their last 14.
02:04 Do they make it 15-0? What do you make of the matchup?
02:07 I think they do. I think Matt Judon was right last week, and this is not a bad team.
02:12 They just haven't been as perfect as they needed to be against teams
02:15 where you really can't be making mistakes.
02:18 I think this Jets defense, this is a really good game.
02:21 It's good for the defense on the Patriots to get some more confidence
02:23 because you have to respect the run game for the Jets.
02:26 You know, Brees Hall is not someone you can sleep on.
02:28 They did a good job against Dalvin Cook that last year,
02:31 but another guy who, you know, it's like last week where if you miss a tackle
02:34 or you have one bad play, he can house it.
02:36 So they have to be on point in that aspect.
02:38 But in terms of the pass game, I think if they just do what they're supposed to do
02:42 and stick to their fundamentals,
02:43 this should be a game that they don't allow many, if any, touchdowns.
02:48 Offensively, the Jets are kind of built to stop what the Patriots don't do,
02:52 which is go downfield.
02:54 It's a lot of corners.
02:55 They also play a lot of man coverage,
02:56 but really they just don't want you to throw behind them.
02:58 And I think that this will be a good test for the Patriots where it's okay,
03:01 this is a team where you're going to have to put together 10-plus play drives
03:04 to put points on the board.
03:05 Can you do that without shooting yourselves in the foot
03:07 and then actually finish these drives?
03:09 Or are you going to continue to stall out once you get past midfield?
03:12 And on top of that, can they actually beat man coverage?
03:14 Because we haven't seen a ton of the press man that we're going to see from the Jets
03:17 from the Dolphins and from the Eagles.
03:19 So I do think the Patriots are going to win this game.
03:21 If they play well, I think they win it by a couple scores, to be honest with you.
03:27 But yeah, I think they would have to, you know,
03:30 play a really bad day of football for this to be a loss for them.
03:34 Yeah, I agree.
03:35 I think they're going to give, again, Zach Wilson on the offense headaches.
03:38 I think it's going to be low scoring.
03:40 And talking about those, you know, methodical 10-play drives that,
03:45 you know, they've kind of had here,
03:46 but they actually haven't been able to finish.
03:48 Bill O'Brien talked about it this week that we need to get,
03:50 like basically in layman's terms said, we need to get in the end zone.
03:54 We need to finish these drives.
03:55 We have it.
03:55 We have it there.
03:56 And then we don't finish them.
03:57 This is the perfect opportunity, like you said, for them to do that.
04:00 So even if they win this game, in my prediction,
04:04 I'm going to go with the Patriots minus two and a half.
04:07 In my prediction, it's like a 20 to 9 win, even if they only score 20 points.
04:12 But they move the football slowly, methodically, down the field,
04:15 10-play drive, score, get in the end zone.
04:17 Even if they go get down there, kick a field goal, that's okay.
04:21 Score your points, look good, don't make mistakes.
04:24 Like putting up only 20 points against this Jets defense,
04:27 that's a win in my opinion.
04:29 Get the win, get it done, see one go through the hoop,
04:33 and then you, you know, can try and knock a couple more wins off down the stretch.
04:39 But yeah, going to go with the Patriots minus two and a half.
04:43 I'm also going to take the under 36 and a half,
04:45 because again, I don't see Zach Wilson putting up money points on this team.
04:49 Maybe a field goal or two, and then maybe a fluke touchdown in the end.
04:52 So I'm going Patriots minus two and a half.
04:55 I'm going under 36 and a half.
04:57 Let's stay in the AFC East.
05:01 We'll talk about the team that the Patriots lost to last week.
05:03 They played them tight.
05:04 It is the Miami Dolphins.
05:06 Yep, they are welcoming the Denver Broncos to Miami.
05:10 Miami is six and a half point favorites at FanDuel.
05:14 Denver is plus 225 on the money line.
05:16 The total is 47 and a half.
05:19 This Broncos team, they're 0-2,
05:22 but they're finally sort of stringing together some offense,
05:25 which I found interesting last week.
05:26 Like the week, week one, they scored like 15 points,
05:30 and it was the same sort of thing as last year where, you know,
05:33 their defense lets up 16 and you only score 15,
05:36 and it's Russell Wilson and everyone's making fun of him again.
05:39 But on week two, they put up 35.
05:42 Wilson threw three touchdowns.
05:44 He threw a Hail Mary at the end to almost tie the game.
05:46 They lose it on a two-pointer version.
05:47 But Sean Payton, yeah, Sean Payton,
05:49 Russell Wilson finally putting up points.
05:51 That defense is obviously good.
05:53 But you look at this Dolphins offense,
05:54 and they're also just, you know, slinging the ball around the yard.
05:59 They were stopped a little bit, obviously, last week by the Patriots.
06:02 They played them pretty well.
06:03 Like I can't really complain with what the Patriots did.
06:05 But sticking to this game, I see a high-scoring matchup,
06:09 but what do you make of, you know, again,
06:10 the matchup with Denver heading to Miami?
06:13 I think it might be different if Denver was home for this one.
06:17 But one, looking at the injury report,
06:19 they're missing Frank Clark and Justin Simmons.
06:21 Those are pretty big losses against this team.
06:23 The Dolphins are probably going to be without Jaylen Waddell.
06:26 He's missed the past two days with a concussion.
06:28 You know, especially nowadays teams are,
06:30 as they should be, more cautious about that.
06:31 They also don't have Selvin Ahmed, which isn't a huge loss,
06:34 but he's a pretty good contributor for them.
06:36 But still, this Dolphins offense,
06:38 I don't know if anybody has found an answer for their short,
06:40 little wheel motions that they like to do.
06:43 The Patriots certainly didn't.
06:44 When I was going through every play,
06:46 they used it and actually targeted it.
06:47 It's like, yeah, no, it's very hard to stop.
06:50 Even without the speed from Jaylen Waddell,
06:52 you've seen the Braxton Berrios, River Craycraft.
06:55 Like, they can still make things happen,
06:56 and Tyree Kilt always have to account for him.
06:59 And the run game can actually get it done
07:01 for the Dolphins as well.
07:02 So I think they're going to win this one pretty handily,
07:05 and that's also because I think Vic Fangio's defense
07:07 is going to be sound enough to take care of things
07:09 with Russell Wilson and make sure that they don't get beat
07:11 and give up big plays and really force them
07:13 to put drives together, which, you know,
07:15 we'll see if they can do that consistently.
07:16 These are also two teams that have, you know,
07:18 been in close games recently.
07:20 The Dolphins have been able to pull them out,
07:21 and the Broncos haven't.
07:23 So, yeah, I'm going to go with the Dolphins here.
07:25 I think they win this one, maybe not comfortably,
07:28 but I think by at least a touchdown.
07:32 - All right, so Taylor is taking the Dolphins,
07:35 minus 6 1/2.
07:36 - I'm going to take Denver, plus 6 1/2.
07:38 I think Miami ultimately wins the game.
07:41 I wrote about this one in my three games to watch,
07:43 which you can read on clnsmedia.com,
07:46 but I'm taking the Broncos.
07:48 I think they're going to keep it tight,
07:49 and I think the total is going to go over.
07:51 I look at that Dolphins defense,
07:53 and, you know, we've talked about Vic Fangio
07:54 for, you know, two weeks now,
07:55 and not that he's—
07:57 obviously, he's a great defensive coordinator,
07:58 but the Chargers put up a lot of points.
08:01 The Patriots were able to hang a little bit.
08:03 I think Denver can do the same.
08:04 So I'm going to take Denver, plus 6 1/2,
08:07 and I'm going to take over 47 1/2.
08:08 I think we see another one of those shootouts
08:10 similar to what we saw
08:12 with the Dolphins and the Chargers two weeks ago.
08:14 So, speaking of FanDuel,
08:16 let's quickly hear from our sponsor.
08:19 - Going to action this NFL season with FanDuel,

08:46 So visit FanDuel.com/Boston
08:50 and kick off the NFL season.
08:52 FanDuel, official partner of the NFL.
08:55 - That's FanDuel.
09:04 Let's go.
09:05 We're going to stay in the AFC East one more time
09:09 because the Bills are headed to Washington.
09:13 They are six and a half point road favorites,
09:17 according to FanDuel.
09:18 43 and a half is the total.
09:21 The Bills, we talked about it last week,
09:23 they lose to the Jets and Zach Wilson in week one.
09:25 And everyone thinks that, you know,
09:27 they're done and they're toast.
09:28 And then they go and they beat the Raiders
09:29 pretty handily last week.
09:30 They covered the spread.
09:32 Now they're heading to Washington,
09:33 who is two and O, excuse me, under Sam Howell.
09:37 They look pretty good.
09:39 Jahan Dodson's a great wide receiver.
09:40 Ty McLaurin's banged up and they're still able
09:42 to, you know, put up points.
09:44 There's a couple, like, Twitter film clips
09:46 that I've seen of Sam Howell.
09:47 And I know it's obviously not the entire sample size
09:50 and he probably still has a long way to go,
09:51 given that it's his first year starting.
09:53 But, man, he makes some throws that it's like,
09:55 wow, he can play in this league if he, you know,
09:58 can just string everything else together.
10:00 So they obviously have that front seven in Washington,
10:04 Chase Young and, you know, those guys.
10:06 So they're going to always put up fights this year.
10:08 I think it's interesting, again, that they're two and O
10:10 and that NFC East that is usually up for grabs anywhere.
10:12 I know Dallas is obviously Dallas this season,
10:15 but Buffalo is a touchdown favorite.
10:18 What do you make of it?
10:20 Do the Bills keep winning?
10:21 Can the Commanders keep winning?
10:22 What do you make of this matchup?
10:24 - Yeah, I think Washington, like you said,
10:27 is going to keep this one tough,
10:28 especially with their defense.
10:29 - They're frisky.
10:31 - Yeah, I think they're going to put a whooping
10:32 on the Bills offensive line, which I think is solid,
10:35 but Washington's just built different.
10:37 But because the Bills can score at will,
10:40 as long as Josh Allen's on point,
10:42 like him and Stephon Diggs are an unbeatable duo.
10:44 Dawson Knox hasn't participated this week, I don't think,
10:47 at least according to the injury report.
10:48 So I think that's pretty significant
10:49 because he's kind of his second most reliable target,
10:52 I'd say.
10:53 And again, I'm not sure Dalvin Cook's been out,
10:56 or James Cook, I'm sorry, has been out,
10:57 but it says it was for personal reasons.
10:59 So I'm not sure what his availability will be like.
11:02 But I think that because of that Washington front,
11:04 that he may have a hard down the ground.
11:06 So yeah, I do think this one's going to be tough,
11:08 but I think that the Bills are going to be able
11:09 to squeak it out by like a touchdown at least,
11:11 just because they're such a hard team to stop when they're
11:14 on point. - All right.
11:15 - And I think the commanders are going to be in it late
11:17 in the game, and then I think we're going to see a late push
11:19 from the Bills to put it away.
11:20 - Taylor Kiles is going backdoor cover from the Bills
11:25 to make it a touchdown or more.
11:27 So he's going Bills minus six and a half.
11:29 Again, I think Washington,
11:31 I always gravitate towards quarterbacks.
11:33 And I think I just like what Sam Howell does.
11:35 Again, he seems frisky.
11:36 He seems like he's in a no-lose situation in Washington
11:40 because it's like, all right, this is your team.
11:43 Nobody's really expecting much of you,
11:45 but Ron Rivera names you the starter.
11:46 And it's just like, go out and ball and see what happens.
11:48 New ownership, new team.
11:50 They're fun. I like Sam Howell.
11:52 So I'm going to go with the cover
11:54 for the commanders plus six and a half.
11:56 And point total wise, I lean over 43 and a half.
12:00 It feels a little low.
12:01 And I just think Buffalo puts up points.
12:03 I think Washington, again, if they keep it close,
12:06 they're going to have to score.
12:07 So I'm going over 43 and a half.
12:09 Let's stay in the AFC with the Colts going to the Ravens.
12:15 The Ravens are eight and a half point favorites at home,
12:19 minus 370 on the money line.
12:21 You got to lay a lot.
12:22 The Colts plus 295.
12:24 Over at FanDuel with a total of 44 and a half.
12:27 Again, like I said, gravitating towards quarterbacks for me.
12:31 Anthony Richardson looks like a baller,
12:34 but he looks like someone that they sort of need to tone it down a little bit
12:39 because through two games, he's gotten hurt in both games.
12:42 I believe he's in concussion protocol currently.
12:46 And it's sort of been the talk of the NFL this week,
12:48 where if you have a running quarterback,
12:50 don't hold him back because that's their skill set.
12:52 Let him go because, you know, this whole Justin Fields thing in Chicago.
12:56 But with Anthony Richardson, I don't know if he doesn't slide.
12:59 I don't know if he just, you know, has a knack to not stay healthy
13:02 or use his head, what have you.
13:03 But, you know, hurt twice through two games.
13:05 He looks great, but you got to keep those guys healthy.
13:08 Their running backs have had problems too in Indy.
13:10 Obviously, Jonathan Taylor's not there.
13:12 Evan Hull went down.
13:13 Zach Moss had a broken arm.
13:15 So I feel like they're a little banged up.
13:17 But then you look at the Ravens,
13:18 and we've talked about the Ravens injury report every single day
13:20 when we're down at Gillette.
13:21 And there are guys littered with that thing.
13:24 Lineman, Tyler Linderbaum, Odell Beckham.
13:27 Obviously, J.K. Dobbins goes down.
13:29 Lamar Jackson, the most, you would think the quarterback in the NFL
13:34 that's, you know, most susceptible to injury
13:36 is the only guy that stays healthy on that team.
13:37 It's crazy.
13:39 But again, Colts at Ravens.
13:41 Ravens minus eight and a half point favorites.
13:43 What are you making the matchup?
13:44 And how do you see this one going?
13:47 If Anthony Richardson were playing because the Ravens are so banged up,
13:52 I would think that they could have a sneaky chance in making this a close one.
13:55 But I don't think that's the case right now.
13:56 I think Lamar Jackson's playing some great football.
13:59 Their defense is still very good.
14:01 They're so well coached that even when they have backups in there,
14:04 they're still going to give you a fight.
14:05 I think the Ravens win this one pretty comfortably.
14:07 I think so too.
14:08 Originally, in my notes, you know,
14:10 prepping for said segment that we're doing right now,
14:13 I went with the Colts because eight and a half is just so many points.
14:17 But at home in Baltimore, not sure about your quarterback,
14:20 not really practicing all week.
14:22 It feels like you don't really get in a rhythm.
14:24 This feels like one of those games where the Ravens just win it like 40 to 10.
14:28 You know, swinging it all across the yard.
14:30 Say Flowers goes for two touchdowns.
14:32 He might even run one in from 60 yards, what have you.
14:34 So I'm going to take the Ravens and I'm going to take over the 44 and a half.
14:40 Before we continue, Taylor, I'm hungry.
14:43 I'm sure you're hungry.
14:44 So let's listen to our over at Factor Meals.

16:19 Monday night football. A doubleheader once again. Eagles are headed to Tampa.
16:25 Why do we keep doing this?
16:27 I don't know. It's weird. It's a 7-15, 8-15 stagger. You can't watch both games.
16:31 It's kind of silly. I don't like it, but we'll talk about both of them
16:36 because it gives you two games to bet on on Monday, not only at FanDuel,
16:40 but you can also get your advice at OddsR where the Eagles are four-and-a-half point favorites
16:46 on the road at Tampa, talking about frisky teams, talking about quarterbacks,
16:50 talking about Sam Howell. Sam Howell just reminds me of Baker Mayfield. Baker's been good.
16:56 Baker's a guy who has had a rollercoaster career,
16:59 but when you give him an offense with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, it's kind of hard to mess up.
17:04 They're playing well. They're 2-0, welcoming the 2-0 Eagles.
17:08 So this will actually be a pretty good Monday night football matchup.
17:11 The total at FanDuel is 46. I know where I'm going with this one,
17:16 but I'm going to save it and I want to hear your thoughts on this game first.
17:20 I'm just going with my brain here. I want to say that Buccaneers have it,
17:25 and I think they can make this more competitive than they probably should with an Eagles team
17:30 that's going up against, no offense, but a Baker Mayfield-led team.
17:34 I think he and Jalen Hurts are in very different areas of their careers right now.
17:40 But yeah, like you said, Mike Evans, he's such a baller, especially the Eagles are down Avante Maddox,
17:47 so I think they could scheme some pretty good matchups up for him, especially the Eagles.
17:50 Their communication tends to kind of dip when Maddox is out there.
17:53 Like last year, you saw a ton of plays that were in the slot area that they were giving up,
17:57 where Maddox just doesn't really allow those kind of things to happen.
18:00 So I'm not going to overthink this one. I think the Eagles win.
18:05 I hate saying comfortably again, it's Monday night football, all that, the lights, blah, blah, blah.
18:11 But yeah, I mean, I think the Eagles are going to handle business.
18:14 The last time I saw Baker Mayfield in a primetime NFL football game,
18:21 he had been in Los Angeles with the Rams for about three days,
18:26 and he went in there with Sean McVay in his ear, calling backyard football plays,
18:32 basically, and went in there and won the game. It was the coolest thing I've ever seen.
18:36 He went down the field, 90-something yards, just slinging it to guys like Tutu Atwell and Van Jefferson.
18:43 As you can tell by the way, I'm like grinning right here.
18:46 I'm a Baker Mayfield fan. I think I have to take Baker and the Bucs here.
18:51 It's me. Maybe you said not overthinking it, so it's kind of me not overthinking it,
18:55 just going with my gut and going with Baker. But I do. I think at home, Monday night, lights are bright.
19:01 Baker likes it. A couple good wide receivers, a defense that's always been pretty good.
19:05 I'm going the Bucs plus four and a half. I think they can win this one outright,
19:08 so I might even sprinkle the money line at plus 190. And I'm going over 46.
19:12 I think both of these teams can score points. I know that Philly front is obviously nothing to not write home about,
19:19 and Baker might be running for his life. But when you have outlets like Evans and Godwin,
19:24 I think you can win the matchup. So I'm going to take the Bucs not only plus four and a half,
19:28 but I'm going to take them on the money line plus 190 at Fandul as well.
19:31 The second Monday night football game is the Rams at the Bengals.
19:36 The Bengals, again, are at home, and they are three-point favorites,
19:40 according to Fandul. Forty-three and a half is the total. Joe Burrow hasn't practiced this week.
19:48 That would put Jake Browning in the mix, Washington's quarterback, or the old Washington Huskies quarterback.
19:55 If you remember when the Washington Huskies made the college football playoff a few years ago,
19:59 that was Jake Browning at quarterback. He might be flung into the mix here, should Joe Burrow not play.
20:06 The Rams, a team where Puka Nakua has been like a godsend for them with Cooper Cup out.
20:12 It's pretty crazy that a rookie fifth-round pick out of BYU comes in and balls.
20:16 But when you have a guy like Matt Stavridge, who we've talked about now three weeks on this show,
20:20 who can go in there and, again, I use the term "sling the rock" all the time,
20:23 but he is the definition of go back there and just throw the ball all around the yard.
20:30 They now head to Cincy. Oh, this is actually a Super Bowl 50-something rematch, now that I think about it.
20:37 Oh, yeah, that's a good call.
20:40 Interesting one. Burrow banged up. Puka Nakua balling. What do you make of the matchup? Who do you like in it?
20:47 With Burrow not practicing, I got to go Rams. It's Matt Stafford. Apparently it's Puka, and that means that good things are going to happen.
20:55 But yeah, especially this Bengals team is just slow out of the gate.
20:59 I don't know what to make of it yet, but it's one of those things where you got to show me something before I can really bet on you.
21:04 I think I bet on them the last couple of weeks and that didn't work out for me.
21:08 So yeah, I'm going with Matt Stafford. Yeah, so it's like, I find it hard to believe that the Bengals are going to fall to 0-3 on the season.
21:17 That just doesn't sound right to me. It's almost like, oh, this isn't how the script is supposed to go that everybody talks about.
21:24 But with Burrow out and the way the Rams are playing right now, how do you not pick them?
21:28 I'm kind of surprised that even with Burrow being banged up and the idea that he might not play, that they're still three-point favorites.
21:34 So I'm going to go with the Rams. This is one where I'm not going to overthink it. I think people will overthink it.
21:40 I like the Rams with the points. 43 and a half seems high with Burrow not playing, because again, if it's Jake Browning,
21:47 they haven't really scored a ton of points with Burrow there. Their offenses are clicking.
21:51 So you take out the quarterback. I don't think they're going to score many points either way.
21:55 So I'm going to go Rams plus three. I'm going to go under 43 and a half.
22:00 That's it for the NFL, my friend Taylor Kiles. But we have to do it.
22:05 We got to do it. College football, Coach Prime, the Colorado Buffaloes on the road at Oregon.
22:12 Colorado is the 18th ranked team in the country. Oregon is the 10th ranked team in the country.
22:18 Coach Prime, Shadur Sanders heading to, is it Eugene, Oregon?
22:23 I believe that's where they play. Over at them Nike facilities and they're taking on the Oregon Ducks who,
22:30 Bo Nix at quarterback, probably a fringe first round pick next season.
22:35 Shadur Sanders could be making his way up there as well. That kid can certainly ball.
22:41 You got Shiloh Sanders, Dion's other kid on the defensive side of the ball.
22:44 Travis Hunter, who got hurt last week. It sounds like he's not going to play.
22:49 I believe Coach Prime has said he's going to be out up to three weeks.
22:53 So you're missing one of the best players in the country and you are 21 point underdogs.
23:00 The total is 70 and a half. Where would you go?
23:04 I know again, not that you're not, we're trying to get you into college football here.
23:09 Now that you're up here. I'm learning. I know that you've been watching the Colorado Buffaloes because of Coach Prime.
23:15 So what do you make of this team? What do you make of the matchup? So with all my knowledge,
23:21 I just 21 points for a team coached by Dion Sanders.
23:25 Like from what I've seen, they're clearly still a team that's building.
23:28 Like I'm not going to sit here and pretend like they're going to play any,
23:32 you know, top tier college team and really be in the fight all the time.
23:36 I think that's asking a lot and we've seen it. Like they definitely struggle at times.
23:40 Like they've started slow. I think the last week or two.
23:44 And there are times where they sputter, but there's also like when Shadur was like,
23:47 yeah, I just went Brady mode. Right? You believe him?
23:50 Because he literally gets trained by Brady and they talk and stuff.
23:53 So take the points. Yeah, I'll take the points. Go Colorado.
24:00 That's 21 points. Seems like a lot. This is a this is a team that's got some fight in them.
24:05 So yeah, I'll go Colorado. That's what I think too. Look, I don't know if they're going to win it.
24:09 It seems like they're outmatched. Oregon's really good and they're on the road.
24:12 But 21 points for this Colorado team. Like they're not going to go out without a fight.
24:17 So even if they're down, you know, 28, even 35 going to like the fourth quarter,
24:21 I can see Shadur not giving up and trying to throw a couple touchdowns in there to at least make it respectable.
24:26 So I'm going to take Colorado plus 21. And I also think it's going to go over 70 and a half.
24:30 I think both of these teams score points. Both of these teams probably not great on defense.
24:35 I know Colorado's not. I haven't paid attention enough to Oregon,
24:37 but I know that Colorado can score. So I'm going to take the over 70 and a half.
24:41 And I'm taking coach Brian plus 21. I'm not going to touch the money line.
24:45 I don't think they win it, but I do think they keep it tight.
