But now would be a good time for us to talk here about a Sports Millions Pick'Em opportunity
00:06
tonight in college basketball. And Scotty, kick us off here. If you got a player you'd be
00:12
centering around, who are you looking at tonight? All right, this is where, Joe, we either go higher
00:18
or lower. Sports Millions, they go to their website, they offer up player props, and whether
00:24
it's rebounds, assists, points rebounds, or whatever the case may be, just like all the other
00:29
plays, right? So I'm gonna center in on that Drake-Texas Tech game. Generally speaking, whenever
00:35
you play player props, you go higher, right? You want to see points, you want to see rebounds, you
00:39
want to see assists. Well, not with Drake and Texas Tech, not tonight, especially with
00:45
Drake, right? So I'm looking to take a guy whose averages are this, the numbers are this, but in
00:51
reality it's going to go lower because this should be a lower scoring game. So I'm focusing in on
00:56
Texas Tech forward J.T. Toppin, right? They're giving us 28 and a half for his points, rebounds,
01:02
and assists. Again, you play Drake, you're not going to hit your averages. You're just not because
01:09
these games are going to be played in the 50s, maybe low 60s, right? That's why the over-under is 127,
01:14
126 and a half. So, you know, they're not taking into account for that. They're taking into
01:19
account for what is the average. Well, you know, he averages that, you know, 28 and a half points,
01:23
rebounds, assists when he's taking on Alabama or when he's taking on, you know, Tennessee, you
01:28
know, when they go up and down the court. They're not going up and down the court today against
01:31
Drake. So he only had 26 PRA points, rebounds, assists in their 82-72 win over UNC Wilmington
01:39
in the first round. He averages, again, 18-9-1. I don't think he gets there. Only had 12 points
01:46
in that one game also, by the way. So give me a Texas Tech forward Joe J.T. Toppin, lower 28
01:53
and a half points, rebounds, and assists. All right. I like that lower it is with Toppin here
02:00
tonight. I'm going to look in that UCLA-Tennessee game and I am going to look at, well, quite
02:08
honestly, what I think is going to be the best offensive player on the court here tonight. And
02:15
that is saying something. But when you're Chas Lanier and you are a Tennessee Vol and you are
02:22
close to setting the single season school record in three-pointers made, then I am looking higher
02:28
than 16 and a half points with him tonight. In fact, sneakily, both UCLA and Tennessee, Scotty,
02:37
we know offensively, while you think of them as defensive schools, we've seen a lot of overs
02:44
between these two teams over this season. And why is that? Well, because offensive efficiency
02:52
matters. You can put up some points in a heartbeat. And both of these teams are great defensively.
02:57
But Lanier averaging about 18 points a game in his career, and I had mentioned, he is nearly 40%
03:04
from three this year alone. And he has an opportunity to set the single season school record
03:10
in three-pointers made. The bottom line is he's got the experience, he's one of the best guards,
03:16
and I do think is the best offensive player on the floor here tonight. He is the heart and soul of
03:23
this Tennessee Vols team. I like Tennessee tonight, but I like higher than 16 and a half points for
03:30
Chas Lanier here tonight, who I think might get very hot very quickly in this game against UCLA.
03:38
I think it's going to be a great game, Scotty, but having Chas Lanier on my team is really
03:44
the difference to me. I like the points here.
