00:00But we do have six games, I believe it is tonight.

00:06Let's start with some of these Lehigh Visiting Army up there.

00:11As you make the majestic trip up the parkway to West Point tonight, if you're in the New

00:15York area, why not?

00:17Heavy lumber here too, 31 and a half, actually down a little bit from earlier.

00:22You have Oklahoma laying the 42 against the Owls at home in primetime.

00:30And FAU visits Michigan State as well, minus 13 now for Sparty with that 44 and a half.

00:38And as we were mentioning yesterday, Joe, that of course was the kid on Michigan State

00:41who told everyone to take the over tonight in that game.

00:45So I guess we got to listen to him, right, Joe?

00:47Do we listen to the kid?

00:48We take the over in Michigan State and FAU?

00:52Listen, you could, but this is a player of mine here tonight.

00:56I laid it with Michigan State, Florida, Atlantic, not too far down the road for me.

01:04It's the second year for Coach Tom Herman, and this is not good.

01:09They've got a total of three starters coming back from a year ago.

01:15Not good here.

01:16Their offense is less than average.

01:19They didn't add anybody in the transfer portal that's going to move the needle.

01:25And they are going to struggle much like they struggled last year.

01:27And I'll tell you this, they did add at Michigan State when you bring over, you know, Jonathan

01:33Smith, the Oregon State coach, he brings his OC over.

01:37They brought the quarterback from Oregon State over, Chiles.

01:41This is going to be a much improved Michigan State team on both sides of the ball at home.

01:48A new era looking to make a, like you said, the boosters, they're looking to make a point.

01:54This is blowout written all over it for Michigan State.

01:57Make no mistake about it.

01:58And team total over may not be a bad play either.

02:02I'm with you, Joe.

02:03I think that Jonathan Smith's a really good head coach.

02:06I think it's a little higher for Michigan State.

02:08I don't think he's going to, you know, the first year, maybe in big 10 play is going

02:12to be great.

02:13That might take a year or two before that starts to move.

02:16But a home game to start the year, primetime at night under the lights against an FAU team,

02:22like you just said, not very good.

02:25Really good opportunity for him to make some people happy in his first on-field performance

02:30as the head coach for the Sparty.

02:32So I like it a lot.

02:34And I think Oklahoma, Joe, I think they can get that over by themselves tonight.

02:39I had Oklahoma, my numbers have Oklahoma.

02:44If the starters were to play the full game, I have them by 54.

02:51And I still think that, yeah, I still think that even the backups are going to be a million

02:57times better.

02:58The backups are going to add a lot of points in this game, Garver.

03:02So yes, a lot of points for Oklahoma tonight.

03:05I'm with you there.

03:06Elon visits Duke.

03:08You're going to think I'm nuts, Joe.

03:09And at least he thinks I'm nuts.

03:11I think Duke made a really good hire with Manny Diaz.

03:15I like Malik Murphy, who's going to be their quarterback this year, who came over from

03:19Texas.

03:20I think this is like, with Jonathan Smith, this is a squash job tonight.

03:23I think they're going to smash Elon at home.

03:26Duke wasn't that bad the last couple years under Elko.

03:29I know they lost a few guys, but I think this is a nice spot for Manny Diaz, who dealt with

03:33so much pressure as the Miami coach.

03:35I think he's a good coach.

03:36A lot less pressure in Durham with Duke, and he gets it done tonight.

03:40You have Wisconsin, you mentioned yesterday about Fickle needing to get off on the right

03:44foot at home against Western Michigan.

03:46And TCU and Stanford, late night, under the lights in Palo Alto, down to eight and a half.

03:53This was around 10, like a week or two ago, Joe.

03:56Yeah, money is rolling in.

03:58I mean, you mean Manny Diaz, the Temple head coach?

04:01Oh, no, Miami head coach.

04:03No, you're right.

04:04Yeah, Temple, then Miami.

04:05Yeah, right.

04:06Yeah, I do.

04:08I think he's perfect for Duke.

04:10I don't think he was perfect for Miami as a head coach, but I think you're right.

04:15They'll have some pieces and they'll beat up the lesser-thans all year long here.

04:20TCU and Stanford is an interesting one, especially with the market movement.

04:24I actually have the over in this one because both of these offenses are going to be much

04:30improved here.

04:31You got a sophomore now and Josh Hoover coming back for TCU.

04:36We always know that guys that get playing time as a freshman, that sophomore jump, it's

04:41usually a pretty good one.

04:43That offense is going to be pretty good.

04:44And the same thing with Stanford.

04:46Stanford has got some guys on offense returning a lot of guys.

04:50They're going to be able to score on a terrible TCU defense still.

04:53I think the over has got a lot of value in this one here.

04:57It's come down a little bit, but it wouldn't shock me if this thing lands in the sixties

05:01at all.
