00:00Tonight, only one game.

00:05The New Orleans Bowl, down on Burbidge Street, at the Dome, where Georgia Southern will take

00:13on Sam Houston State.

00:15Now let me give you the laundry list, as I like to do for these bowl games, to tell you

00:19what's going on.

00:20Well, here's Sam Houston's problem.

00:23Their head coach left for the job at Temple.

00:26That's right.

00:27Randy Keeler left to go coach Temple.

00:29So the offensive coordinator is going to be the interim coach.

00:34Defensive coordinator was hired for the same position, but he'll bring a number of assistants

00:37with him.

00:38He's going to stay.

00:39Now, there's, I believe, 20 players, or 20 to 25 players, on the transfer portal list

00:45for Sam Houston State.

00:46But there are reports that a lot of them are going to play, even though they're in the

00:51portal.

00:52As far as Georgia Southern goes, they only have-

00:55How is that possible?

00:56How is that possible that you can say, I'm leaving, I'm out of here, I'm gone, I'm in

01:01the portal, but you can still play in a bowl game?

01:03Yeah, there's some pride here.

01:06It's the first bowl game, I guess, ever for Sam Houston.

01:10The players would like to bring that home.

01:13We shall see how that goes.

01:14Georgia Southern is pretty clean.

01:18You know, they're only missing one of their best defenders, and then everyone else is

01:21there.

01:22Clay Helton, of course, is the coach at Georgia Southern.

01:25And the numbers for you as of this moment, here we go.

01:28Georgia Southern, for right now, I know this is moving around, three and a half.

01:33I've seen it up to four in some spots.

01:35Three and a half, four with a- I'm on three and a half.

01:38With the total up to 48 and a half now in this game.

01:42I love the under tonight in this game.

01:44I don't think there's going to be a lot of scoring.

01:46Me too.

01:47Give me Georgia Southern minus the three and a half and the under, I'm with you.
