00:00ERS, let's start big picture by looking at the individuals most outstanding player odds now available for the 2025

00:07Big dance and it should be no surprise

00:09That the guy who is booked as the favorite is the best player on the national championship

00:15Favorites and soon to be the number one overall pick in the NBA. That is Cooper flag and a plus

00:22370 price now that might surprise some people. Hey, we're not even sure flag is going to play from the very start for the Blue Devils

00:29Most outstanding player often deals just with the final four

00:33So you are kind of looking at that final weekend

00:36Expecting these guys to be there and if Duke gets there and Cooper flag is healthy. No doubt. He should be booked as the favorite

00:43Exactly, and if the favorite team which is Duke to win at all

00:46It's pretty clear like I don't think Duke's gonna win the national championship

00:49Like, you know what?

00:49And Conkin Apple had 28 and 28 back-to-back and Cooper flag had five and five points and didn't really factor in so it sort of

00:56Goes hand-in-hand

00:56It's like picking the Super Bowl champion. If it's the Kansas City Chiefs. Well, who else is gonna be the MVP?

01:01It's probably going to be Patrick Mahomes at that point

01:03Now you take a look at Auburn same exact thing. Do you and I broom plus 750 price?

01:07You think Auburn's going to win the championship? He's probably gonna be the biggest factor overall

01:11It starts to get a little bit tilted as you go down and you see like Houston with who's on and crier

01:16It's like well both are 20 to 1

01:17There's a legitimate chance that either one of those guys can take over that game and certainly have a great final four and a great

01:22Championship game that makes it tough. So I don't mind it

01:24But again price accordingly here like Cooper flags not 17 to 1 to win MOP and you know, Duke is plus 500

01:30Let's just call it a 370 350 to win the NCAA championship. So it does go hand-in-hand

01:35I'd be comfortable taking flag and comfortable taking broom Walter Clayton probably with UF

01:40But also there's a lot of really good players on that team as well

01:42Yeah clear-cut guys

01:43Obviously with the best numbers flag and broom if they win it all those guys are gonna get the most of but also understand this

01:48It is an interesting award because I think they do it at this service like the best player in the final four

01:55Like why can't we just have the best player all throughout understand this like there are players that will have great

02:00Performances all the way up to the final four and then their team drops out and they're not going to win the MOP anyway

02:05For the tournament. So really it is. They're probably 99% of the time, right?

02:08The national championship winning team is gonna have the MOP

02:11I just don't like it because I know it's human nature to say well

02:15Boy flag was awesome in game one and two and that's where we'll give him the bump over

02:19Knipple if it's in the final four like I don't like that

02:22But I know team people will actually probably do that

02:24It is what it is pick the champion pick the best player. You'll get the award
