00:00This is a big number, it's 14 and a half, 50 and a half is the total.

00:08We've seen some close games in this rivalry, we've seen some blowouts, even when one team's

00:12better than the other.

00:13We know Texas is a lot better than Oklahoma, but that's a very big number.

00:18Listen, that number's too big for this rivalry, and I think Texas is better than Oklahoma.

00:26Are they 15 points better in a rivalry game of blood and guts?

00:32I mean, this is like, I mean, these guys, they won't even eat food, they'll eat charcoal

00:38all week getting ready for this game.

00:39I mean, it's war.

00:41It's an absolute war every time they play.

00:43So no way am I laying that kind of piece in that game, but I do think Texas will find

00:49a way to beat Oklahoma.

00:50There's something about Ben and his team that I think they're missing.

00:56Yeah, they are missing something.

00:57Yeah, a quarterback would be it.

00:59Let me give you the numbers in some of these bigger games.

01:02Tomorrow we're going to do more of the racks.

01:04Penn State is going to the Coliseum, out west for USC.

01:09They are four and a half point favorites on the road for Franklin against Moss and the

01:15crew there with that.

01:17Let me give you, and you can comment on all of them.

01:19Florida is at 10 a.c. this week, that is also going to be a big number, 15 and a half for

01:24the Vols, awful loss on Rocky Top, Ole Miss going to LSU in a night game.

01:31Both of these teams big ranked, and three and a half on the road for Ole Miss.

01:34Yeah, LSU doesn't lose under the lights in Death Valley.

01:38And then USC's lost two in a row, a real tough spot for Penn State to go to the Coliseum

01:44to beat them by that number.

01:47Four and a half, I think Penn State could get upset.

01:50I gave you UCLA last week at 28 and a half, and they covered, even at 27 and a half, didn't

01:55matter, they lost whatever, 27-10.

01:57I think Penn State, for my money, is overrated.

02:01And what was the other game?

02:04The other, Tennessee and Florida.

02:05Oh, Tennessee.

02:06Oh, what was the other game?

02:07I think Tennessee whacks Florida in Knoxville.

02:09Tennessee plays on another level at home than they do on the road in Fayetteville.

02:14I got that hog cover and win outright last week for you.

02:18They go home and turn it on Florida's ass.

02:21I think Florida, I gave you Florida last week.

02:24They were easy money, I thought, at home.

02:26They got it done against UCF.

02:28I like Tennessee here.

02:31And I just kill it in college football, as you know.

02:33I like Saturdays better than Sundays.

02:35Sundays, to me, is a kiss to death.

02:37It is a way to lose everything, your marriage, your family, your house, your wallet, your

02:40car, your dog, your lover.

02:44You brought up the Ohio State-Oregon game, which is obviously the main attraction this

02:47week.

02:48Two against three.

02:49I wanted to give you the number, though.

02:50Ohio State is three points.

02:53This is three and a half this morning.

02:54I got a flat three right now in Oregon against the Ducks with a big 52 and a half.

03:00So a tricky number.

03:01Yeah, look, I don't believe that this is a field goal game.

03:05I really don't.

03:06I think Ohio State is a tutty better than Oregon.

03:10I do.
