Transcript

00:00Welcome to the Daily Boost, I'm Lucy Burge of the BetMGM Network and I am joined by Matt

00:08Horner and we have for you today a Super Bowl little appetizer before the big game kicks

00:14off this weekend.

00:15This is a prebuilt SGP from BetMGM on AJ Brown to record 75 or more receiving yards, Travis

00:23Kelsey to do the same, record 75 or more receiving yards, Devante Smith to record 50 or more

00:29receiving yards, Xavier Worthy to do the same, record 50 or more receiving yards.

00:34This all together is at plus 10.50 at, of course, BetMGM.

00:39Matt, what do you think of this?

00:41Yeah, plus 10.50.

00:43Quite the boost there.

00:44Quite.

00:45I love that parlay token we got going here.

00:47So AJ Brown, 75 plus receiving yards.

00:50I actually love it.

00:51I think Philadelphia could have success in the passing game here because Kansas City

00:54is going to be focusing all their attention on stopping Saquon Barkley because the guy's

00:58been just, you know, unbelievable in the postseason so far.

01:03200 rushing yards against the Rams.

01:05That was absolutely ridiculous.

01:06And he had a really good game last time out against Washington as well.

01:09So you know they're going to be focusing on them.

01:11Jalen Hurts, everybody thinks he kind of is a stinker.

01:13Nobody really considers him a huge threat in this game.

01:17But at the same time, I think there's going to be a lot of opportunities in the play action

01:20because they're going to be coming up so much to try to stop Saquon Barkley that Hurts could

01:24burn them deep.

01:25And then of course, AJ Brown is his number one target who will probably be matched up

01:28with Trent McDuffie, who's tremendous at the corner position.

01:31But AJ Brown got 96 receiving yards the last time these two teams faced off, and they had

01:36LeGarrius Sneed at that point with McDuffie as well.

01:39So I think he could definitely hit 75 yards.

01:42And then you got Travis Kelsey.

01:43Obviously, he's the number one target for Mahomes.

01:46The Eagles defense is slightly weaker against tight ends than they are receivers, but they

01:51still are very good against the pass this year.

01:54Number one defense against the pass, the Eagles this year, and number one in yards

01:57per play.

01:58It's tough, but Kelsey, obviously, he's going to get his.

02:02He's Travis Kelsey.

02:03That's what he does on the biggest stage.

02:04Devonta Smith, interestingly enough, has faced the Chiefs three times.

02:10Every single time, he's gotten at least 99 yards receiving, 99 in one game and then the

02:15other two, he had over 100 yards.

02:18So he's torched the Chiefs in the past.

02:20He can certainly do it here with all the attention on Brown and Barkley.

02:24Then Xavier Worthy, he's the number one targeted receiver for the Chiefs.

02:28Everybody else is kind of a washed-up has-been.

02:30I hate saying that, obviously, with guys like Hollywood Brown and Juju Smith.

02:34But at the same time, are they huge threats?

02:37Not exactly.

02:38But Xavier Worthy has shown that he has the speed to burn them deep.

02:42So I don't mind this.

02:44These types of odds, if you want to put something down on that, I think it's worth it.

02:48That sounds great.

02:49Head in on this pre-built SGP plus $10.50 at BetMGM and head to odyssey.com slash betting

02:57to get everything you need to bet on the Super Bowl and on everything day-to-day, NBA and

03:02college basketball, which will be ramping up quite soon.

03:06Everything you need at odyssey.com slash betting.

03:09And of course, follow us on Twitter at sharp underscore side underscore and at Lucille

03:14Burge.

03:15We have our favorite bets as well.

03:16And I am looking ahead to the Super Bowl, and I am looking at a prop.

03:20And this is the Gatorade color, the ever-popular Gatorade color.

03:23I am going with purple, and this is the Gatorade to be dumped on the head coach, who is the

03:28winner, winning team's coach of the Super Bowl.

03:31So I think the Chiefs will win.

03:32I have Chiefs money line, so I'm taking purple plus $2.25, if you can get this, plus $2.25.

03:37It is the favorite because it has been the Chiefs Gatorade color the past two years.

03:43I think superstition will be a factor here.

03:46And I think the Chiefs will have purple Gatorade and very superstitious as they may be.

03:51I don't know.

03:52But I feel like a lot of athletes and teams are so purple for the Gatorade color plus

03:56$2.25.

03:57Do you think Andy Reid and Mahomes could like know about this being like a big thing and

04:04then they're just colluding together like, OK, so we're going to win, right, because

04:08we're the Chiefs.

04:09So why don't we just make it hilarious and make it some really stupid color that nobody

04:13would like?

04:14Yeah, that would be like, when they mixed, they mixed two together and it's like a brown

04:20Gatorade.

04:21It's just iced coffee in there.

04:25Everyone's all jazzed up.

04:26If it's a color that doesn't like exist, like Gatorade doesn't even make, so like,

04:31oh, what do they do?

04:32Like unicorn or something like rainbow Gatorade.

04:36And what if it's, Matt, do you remember this?

04:39You're a little bit younger than I am, but do you remember there used to be a beverage

04:42that was sold?

04:43It was like a clear, but it wasn't clear Pepsi, but it was clear with little like bulbs in

04:48it, like little balls in it.

04:50And it was like orbit something or like space galactic something.

04:53And it was a little glass jar.

04:55Yes, it was.

04:56And they were.

04:57It's kind of like the original, like boba tea.

04:59But it was like a like a it wasn't boba tea, but it was like this consistency kind of.

05:05I got to look this up.

05:06It was like if anyone's listening and tweet us wherever you whatever you find us.

05:12What is it called?

05:14I'm going to look it up after this, because now I want to do that.

05:15It could be.

05:16What if we just put that in there?

05:17Randomly.

05:18What if they just put that in there?

05:21So like a Fanta or lemonade, something like that.

05:25Yeah.

05:26Just something different.

05:27Just, you know, everybody else just gets angry at them for putting something random in there.

05:32I'm going to go to college basketball here, as I usually do.

05:36I'm going to take Missouri plus nine and a half.

05:39They're going up against Tennessee tonight.

05:42Tennessee coming off that huge win over Florida, which I took the other day.

05:46If you follow me on my bet tracker, that was an easy one to take.

05:51Tennessee had lost multiple matchups in a row against Florida, who had been like unstoppable.

05:56And then Tennessee was a favorite.

05:57So clearly they were going to win the game.

05:59That was really easy.

06:00Just reading that line.

06:01This one here is a little bit difficult to read.

06:04It's not as obvious as others because Missouri's ranked number 15 in the country.

06:09They're getting nine and a half points, which usually in this case you would think, oh,

06:12well, we're going to take the team that's ranked, getting all of these points.

06:16You know, a lot of people would do that.

06:18I'm going to take Missouri though at nine and a half.

06:20I just think they're a wagon, quite frankly.

06:22I think they've been playing fantastic basketball lately.

06:26And plus it's also sort of a fade of Tennessee coming off that huge win over a team like

06:32Florida.

06:33So nine and a half, I just think is too many points.

06:35So give me the Tigers here.

06:37Plus nine and a half tonight against the Volunteers.

06:39Very nice.
