Speaker 1 (00:01):
Remember that magic eight ball, A nice little shaken.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Look at this I'm getting late tonight.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
You can trust whatever it said, or you could trust
these two guys named Adam.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
It's a crap shoot either way. But these are your
stone cold.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Locks, stone cold up.
Speaker 1 (00:31):
All right, it's that time of the week.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
We'll tell you what's going down halfway through this third
hour of the show four thirty each and every week
the afternoon signature segment time five o'clock or excuse me,
four to thirty on Fridays, we hit you with our
stone cold locks, like to get you caught up and
where things stand. Five weeks into our season, twenty five
selections have been made by each of us over those
(00:55):
five weeks, five picks a week, one college football game
of the week, and selection on the Texans. Once the
NFL season began, and as has happened on more than
one occasion, you sat in a pretty good spot up
above the others. Here a four and one week for you.
You mentioned it earlier, just fading the college football game
(01:16):
of the week, which wasn't even close way under, but
that was your only miss in your propensities to stay
away from the line on every single pick. You've ever
made in these stone cold locks.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
You've never done.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
It went heavy on the overs four out of the
five other than the Texans, which did hit the under,
so the other three were also correct. It got you
your eleventh win of the twenty five game selections. I'm
sitting at eleven wins. Also did not have a great week.
Florida State pretty much was never in position to cover
that overtime game. I still can't believe Indiana did not
(01:49):
cover against freaking Iowa. Freaking Thankfully, the stupidity of the
end of game safety did not impact my line. Some
people might have got it at six and a half
and still couldn't believe that with the clock at zero,
they still ran from inside the ten yard line all
the way into the end zone to give up the
(02:10):
two points for absolutely no reason at all.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
Just fall down. It's college football. You're down. It's okay
not to give those points away. But like I said,
it didn't matter.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
The Oregon game was easy, and I, of course, as usual,
missed on the Texans. Cole and I both went two
and three, But previous good weeks have Cole leading the
way He's gotten at least half of his games, right
he's thirteen to twelve and the other of us are
sitting at eleven wins on the season. Our college football
game of the week for this week. As I mentioned
earlier in the week, the only matchup of undefeated teams
(02:42):
in college football is right here in town, right here
on nine to fifty tomorrow, five o'clock for coverage to
begin at six o'clock kickoff.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Where you're blue if you're headed.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Out to TDECU Stadium for the Cougars and the Red Raiders.
And reminder, in the five o'clock hour, we will still
have one more set of ten. It's a pair of
tickets to give away to that game. I will be
out there and encourage you to come by and say hello,
hanging out of the bud like tailgate patio before the
game and then on inside for the game. Twelve and
a half is the number for Texas Tech and over
(03:14):
under a fifty two and a half, and of course
we'll make our selection on Texans Ravens. Texans are a
two and a half point favorite with an under over under.
I said it because I meant it an under of
forty and a half. Coll As always, you get things started.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
I'll go yeah, okay, fine, we'll just do it knocking
out of the way. Listen. I think e Houston has
a great defense. I think that they are miles ahead
of expectations from what many people expected. But Texas Tech
has two quarterbacks that can easily put up points. I
think that Baron Morton fully healthy gives them a slight advantage.
They also have wide receivers that are breaking on open
left and right, and if they're down early, I do
(03:52):
not think of the defense is going to allow Houston
get back in this game. So I'm taking the Red
Raiders at minus twelve and a half. Even though this
is an undefeated matchup, one team is ranked inside the
top ten. The other team isn't ranked for a reason.
Head on over to college Station Stay in the lone
Star State. I understand that Mississippi State had a heartbreaking
loss last week to Tennessee in overtime, and Texas A
(04:13):
and M still put up over four hundred and seventy
yards of offense against Auburn, But fifteen and a half
is an egregiously oversimplification of a line and in my opinion,
is the best bet of the week. I'm taking Mississippi
State at plus fifteen and a half. This is going
to be I think a four quarter game. Even if
the Aggies do find a way to be able to win,
(04:34):
They're not gonna do it with the blackout without a
couple of bumps and bruises. Stay out in Texas going
over to Waco, Baylor playing host.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
To Kansas State. Kansasit has been one.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Of the most disappointing teams in college football this season,
and Sawyer Robertson has been, in my opinion, one of
the most slept on quarterbacks at the national level this season.
Leeds college football not only in passing yards but also
in passer rating and passing touchdowns. I think he continues
to build a Heisman caliber worthy resume and they get
a win over the Wildcats. I'm taking the MIAs five
(05:06):
and a half and let's head on out to Gainesville
where Texas takes on Florida. And so many people constantly
are saying, oh, well, the line is this slow, because
if they think it, neither offense is going to be
that great. Neither offense is averaging more than fourteen points
per game. Both rank outside of the top one hundred.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Well, you know what I think. Both offenses come to
life in this game.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Dallas Wolson and Bernod Brown are back for dj Lagway,
and a Manual Mosley and Trey Weister are back for Texas.
So I'm taking the over forty two and a half
points more we scored.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
Out in the Swamp, longest Dublin hangover of all time.
For Kansas State, they have had an awful season after
going over there and losing to Iowa State Cita beer. Yep,
it's not been good and some teams have suffered from that.
Whether it's a real thing or not, they definitely look
very bad in doing so two and three, one in
one in conference play and again taking on Baylor in way.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Let's hear your four games.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
Well, I know that who they played comes into play,
but like Cole said, both of these teams, especially Texas Tech,
can put up points. So the fifty two and a half,
I'll take the over, and it's kind of a theme
much like last week overs were good to me, so
I'll do it again this week. Broncos at Eagles forty
(06:23):
three and a half. I know there's some defenses there
that can get something done, but I like both teams
to be able to put up enough points to go
over on that Cowboys and Jets. I mean, just the
Cowboys alone might score forty seven in this game. I
don't know, we'll see, but between the two of them,
I think they can get over forty seven and a half.
And the same with the Kamis at the Chargers of
(06:45):
Jayden Daniels back in the lineup, and I mean obviously
Justin Herbert's the greatest quarterback ever, so those two combined
will be able to put up nearly fifty points. That
number at forty seven and a half. I'm also taking
the over there.
Speaker 4 (06:57):
I agree with Cole Mississippi State's great play at Texas
A and M Vanderbilts. I don't know if they're a
great play, but I will play it and I'll make
sure to get as many points as I can. I
think it's a ten and a half right now. I
always stay at the other team from Dublin. They haven't
lost any games, and their dogs at Cincinnati this week.
Probably that I'm falling for it and it's a trap
(07:19):
and it's the gambler's nightmare, but I will play it.
Iowa State plus one and a half at Cincinnati leaves
us with our college football game of the week. I
think the defenses will come to play. I think the
Cougars will have a tough time consistently moving the ball
up and down the field. I'll play the under rather
than making a selection, noting that both of these two
teams went under that number in their most recent games,
(07:40):
and the Cougar has even played overtime and still stayed
under that number. I take the Texans on a regular
basis to cover. Took them to cover against the Bucks,
took them to cover against the Jaguars. I'll take them
to cover against the Ravens and hope to get it
right for the first time.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I'll take the under because these offenses are just not
going to be the same. Well, the Ravens won't, the
Texans will be about the same.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Cold, and I think that the exact same thing is
going to happen with both of you. Texans are gonna
win by minus two and a half, but I don't
think that you're gonna see forty points scored on either side.
So I'm gonna take the smarter bet and go with
the under at forty and a half.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Yeah, I'll take the dumber bet. Texans favored in a
building they've never won. But they're also going up against
the team quarterback by Cooper Rush, against whom they are
undefeated and have covered the two and a half every
single time. Last time they played Cooper Rush, they would
have covered a twenty three and a half number, beating
Cooper's team by twenty four.
