00:00There's some star power in this game. We know that like the Heisman finalist didn't win it Travis Hunter did but Boise State running back

00:08Ashton Gente and he talks here about going up against the defense as stout as Penn State's

00:14They got some really good

00:16Players their front seven is elite, you know, great linebackers great D line

00:22You know, they they do a lot. Um, you know blitzes pressures, you know moving the D line stunts

00:30And all that and you know, they're single high, you know team

00:34So, you know for sure we're gonna get some seven eight man surfaces. I mean, that's just

00:39Natural from all the defenses we've seen but you know, we're gonna have to play a great game stay ahead of the chains

00:47You know, they're one of the best teams on

00:49Third and long so we want to stay out of those situations

00:53Chance he needs a hundred and thirty two yards to pass Barry Sanders for the most rushing yards in an FBS

01:00College football season. What are your expectations for tonight?

01:04Look at the twelve and a half is a lot of points. I gotta say like that

01:08That's one word. It makes me a little uncomfortable here. I

01:11Will still lean on that side towards the Penn State side of the minus twelve and a half

01:16The fifty four and a half two is that total is another large number?

01:21so if you think that

01:23Boise State's gonna be outclassed here to be honest

01:26you might want to potentially shade the under here and you might also be affected potentially by

01:33The game script here for Gente. So if they do fall behind really early in this game, that might be a bad thing

01:38I know there's a lot of spots

01:39We could bet the special here for Gente to get this record

01:42So if they do fall behind 14 nothing or something like that in that first quarter

01:47You could see maybe them having to throw the football a little bit more than they want to and get away from that game plan

01:52I don't think they should I think they should stick to what works for them

01:54Which is running the ball with Ash and Gente and letting him eventually make that

01:57Big play that big breakaway run because that's been the secret sauce for Boise State all year

02:02but at the same time it is something to watch very closely and maybe even be live betting it too because

02:07There is a scenario here where Penn State jumps on them early and just is out

02:11Classing them top to bottom as a roster and that's what we've seen so far in this college playoff in the early going

02:16You know some of these SEC rosters and some of these other rosters

02:19Just a different animal than what we're used to and I think that's something even with Notre Dame that you saw, right?

02:25So I think that at a certain point you have to take that into account and clearly the line is to I saw eleven and a

02:30Half is one we had some spots even having at twelve and a half now

02:33Where are you at with this one?

02:34Do you think that this is a comfortable win here for Penn State because that's what Vegas is telling you

02:38No, I took Boise State with the points and I mentioned to Gabe earlier. I would consider sprinkling the money line

02:44I think Boise State is live to win this game. Now, obviously that doesn't happen without a stellar like

02:51150 200 yard total yard performance out of Gente

02:54He needs to be every bit the Heisman

02:56Finalist that he was and you know set that record and all of that stuff if he is underwhelming in any way

03:02I certainly don't think Boise State never mind wins this game probably loses by three scores

03:07But I think this is absolutely an opportunity for Boise State to win in advance

03:12I'm not I'm not quite right or wrong maybe wrong

03:15I'm not quite as high on Penn State as as it feels like everybody else's
