That is our Sports Millions picks. This is the way you take a game, whether it's NHL, NBA,
00:06
college basketball, you go to sportsmillions.com, they list a whole bunch of players and you go
00:12
higher and lower on individual stats and hopefully you put two or three together and there you go,
00:18
you come out on top. So I'm going to do something rare. I'll go first with mine.
00:24
I generally, you know, I think most people, whenever you play props, right, you go higher,
00:29
you don't go lower on these things. You're always rooting for points or assists or rebounds,
00:33
whatever. I'm going to go against the grain today. I think we got a pretty good one.
00:37
I think the boys over at Sports Millions fell asleep at the wheel with this one.
00:41
I can't play St. John's and Creighton just because I'm here in New York. So the big boys don't allow
00:47
me to bet on local schools, but we could do our Sports Millions picks, which is a beautiful thing.
00:52
So let's go to Creighton and St. John's. Let's go with Creighton's best player, Ryan Kalkbrenner,
00:57
right? They have a over, under or a higher or lower number posted at 19 and a half points.
01:03
Now the guy's been on fire. He's hit 20 points in four of his last six games.
01:08
So we got to go higher, right? Not so fast as they say. Here's why. One, I think it's going to be a
01:15
lower scoring game. You know, third game, fourth game and three, four nights for these teams.
01:21
It's tough to go up and down the court and really be able to score. So I think it's going to be a
01:25
lower scoring game. Both teams have a lot more unders than overs when it comes to the actual
01:30
betting side of things. So lower scoring game means obviously less points. Kalkbrenner,
01:35
get a load of this, Joe. How many points did he score in the two other games against St. John's
01:40
this year? 12 and 16. Last time I checked, that's less than 19 and a half points. Well,
01:47
what about last year, Scott? How about 12 and 18? Last time I checked, that's lower than 19
01:54
and a half points. How about the year before? How about 12 and 16? Again, lower than 19 and a half
02:02
points. And then how about the year before that? This guy's been in college for like 20 years.
02:08
Nine and 19. He has never scored 20 points against St. John's. And if you think in the
02:16
biggest game of the year, and probably this kid's season and for St. John's, right? They clearly,
02:23
Rick Patino's got a way to shut this dude down. I don't think he's getting 20 tonight. Like I said,
02:29
third game in three nights for Creighton. He's a big guy. He's a seven footer. If you're a guard,
02:34
that's not that big a deal. But a seven foot one dude going up and down the court as much as he
02:39
played. Don't forget, one of those games was an overtime game against DePaul. He's not getting
02:43
20 tonight against St. John's. So long story short, let me go Ryan Kalkbrenner, lower 19 and a
02:49
half points for Creighton tonight. Oh, great angle for the lower on him, Scott. Love where you're
02:55
going there. I'm going to look at Boise State versus Colorado State. Now I've got you guys,
03:00
I can't go to the lower width, but I'm going to look at one higher for his rebounding and one
03:04
higher for his points. Let's start with Boise State here. I'm going to look at Tyson DeGenhart
03:10
to come out higher than six and a half rebounds. He's averaging just slightly lower at 6.1 rebounds
03:17
on the season. But we look here at Colorado State and one thing they don't do well is getting those
03:22
offensive rebounds. I expect Tyson DeGenhart to really battle under the basket, get those
03:29
rebounds. So I'll take him higher than the six and a half. And then over here for Colorado State,
03:34
I'm going to look at Clifford, higher than 20 and a half points. Now he's been on fire in his last
03:39
two games. He's been able to go 25 or higher for his points. And the last time he faced Boise State,
03:46
he put up 36 points. Now I know Boise State is going to look to contain him in this one, but
03:51
his number is just too low for me. Give me Clifford higher than 20 and a half points.
03:55
So when you combine mine together, Tyson DeGenhart higher than six and a half rebounds and Clifford
04:02
higher than 20 and a half points. It's a three-time multiplier. And Scott, if you add yours in,
04:07
six-time multiplier. So I absolutely love our angles today.
