And he hung one did he get it did he get it yes he did you are now watching The College Baseball Insider show it’s behind him this is Hammer left field and we are tied wow now here are your hosts giving you an inside look into the top
Matchups week four is here and the rain is still here as well as Quenton backstage just updated UCF Oklahoma playing in their first Big 12 game as the UFC or you yeah UCF Knights have joined the Big 12 has been postponed it’ll be a double header
Tomorrow so add that to the list with MCN and Arkansas Hugh what’s up what’s up Friday it’s a good good day to be yeah now I was trying to tweet out the show trying to do my my due diligence Smitty is uh missing from us today so it
Should make for a little quicker show maybe a little less energetic though uh we’ll hopefully get Smitty back on the Monday recap but anyways full Full Slate I’m very excited about it pit North Carolina d Wake Forest as ACC play kicks off then you end it with Texas Tech
Texas and TCU Kansas at night as Big 12 also kicks off I think SEC is next week uh not sure about Big 10 they’re pretty much irrelevant at this point outside of maybe Indiana but I don’t have high hopes for them either big weekend big weekend for big weekend uh okay jumping
Right into I was gonna start with that just start with them while you’re you you had to brought it up if I think this is uh before we jump into our regular games Indiana this to me is makeer break for them if the if they lose this series to
Troy they have fallen off the train tracks in my opinion all the hype everything was going into him kind of like Iowa Iowa felt like they kind of derailed some especially after Miss took two to three um I know it’s not an in-conference game like you could still
Win the conference in Indiana and still not be a good team team uh or or a threat in the postseason so I think this weekend is kind of make a break for them I agree who do you have in that one I know it’s part of the
11 I think they’re gonna turn it on I mean I think I think uh it’s at home which helps I think if they were playing in Troy it’d be a problem but I I think they get themselves right I don’t think they’re an elite team by any means I
Think some people were thinking they were going to be better than maybe what they are they still have some growth they have one good pitcher and then everybody else is average they do have a good lineup um but outside of a couple dudes you know they’re pretty average as
Well they’re they’re a growing team they’re not Elite uh so I think they get through Troy at home and then I think uh I think they could still win the Big 10 but but I think the expectations kind of need to be brought back down to earth with them
Personally Troy was in a stellar midweek game against Alabama I thought they were going to get the win but uh shout out Sam thank you slate today is incredible I hope a lot of of the games hold on though as we begin getting rain cancellations two of which on the board
Uh or maybe not just MCN State and Arkansas and then UCF yeah and who that I know of okay are you ready to jump into the previews yep hit surprisingly eight- one uh 44 ranked RPI which really doesn’t mean anything at this Point s strength schedule
163 but they take on a North Carolina team that’s been pretty salty behind Vance Honeycut I this one’s got to be North Carolina I feel like you look at the pitching matchups fer fer or foler Boaz uh he’s been pretty solid as their Friday night guy after the loss of Jake
Napp do you think Pittsburgh has a chance to keep this close or do you think North Carolina sweeps him I’ll tell you I’m looking very hard at maybe me doing an added play here at North Carolina minus one and a half to be honestus 135 it does it it feels like this could
Be like a like a 95 game UNC uh I think pit is is having a hell of a year to start but I think they’re exceeding expectations and I think they kind of get brought back down now this should be I guess in my opinion probably the toughest game they’ve had to date
Um you know but maybe this is where North Carolina kind of falls off we talked about how they’re either going to be elite or kind of middle of the row and this is a big spot for them uh I think in the if you you asked me earlier
In the year if I’m thinking this series is going to kind of Define North Carolina I would have said no but being at pits 8 And1 we’re gonna find out who’s fraudulent is it North Carolina or is it Pittsburgh and I think uh I’m looking really hard at minus one and a
Half and I might go down burning with Tar Heels stay tuned both teams pretty balanced 134 132 WRC plus the sieras right there neck and neck so I think it will be a good test for North Carolina we’ll see how good pit is like you stated all right moving on to another
ACC matchup this is the Prime Time game in my opinion 12th ranked Blue Devils 11 and one on the season behind Jonathan santui going on the bump for Duke take on the number one team in college baseball Wake Forest with Josh on the this one this one surprised me so
One I was not surprised that the projections actually had Duke better because of their offensive production they are the number one ranked offense in the country with a 159 WRC plus however when I saw that they were they opened up at plus whatever it was plus
154 I saw some offshore books had as high plus 180 I was like okay this is wrong this this is flat out wrong this is not Rett louder going on Friday Josh hardle has been good but not to that Elite level I mean you look at the the starting
Rotation he’s actually got the worst stats of of all three of them when you look at the advanced stuff their offense has kind of been lacking 127 uh under a th000 Ops pretty weak strength of schedule at 97th I just feel like like wake this is
The game that they lose I do feel like they end up winning the series because Chase Burns has been virtually unhitable Michael Massie has been Elite I I like their matchups Saturday Sunday but give me Jonathan santui and the Duke Blue Devils on Friday night what are you doing
Here yeah I agree with you I wasn’t surprised that Duke on the uh projection run scored was uh obviously the winner I was surprised at the plus 154 I think they’re just mispriced and I think Wake Forest is getting benefit of the doubt is being a number one team but this is
Two different teams from the 23 to the 24 I’ve watched several wake Force games on ESPN plus and I’m not impressed with what I’ve seen uh Nick Herz struggling uh 262 two home runs it’s I don’t know if it’s it really doesn’t seem like he’s been pitched around it just seems like
Maybe he’s just putting too much pressure on himself and almost just needs to kind of simplify things and literally say put bat to ball and just have fun almost to like that t-ball mindset and get back to just kind of doing what he did last year but if I’m
Not mistaken this Series last year was in Duke and Duke took one of them without santui so and again I could be wrong because sanui I believe it was without sanui I don’t think he was uh with the team that late in the season it was one
Of the earlier matchups but I think Duke actually gets two out of three here I think they get tonight and I think they get Sunday I think it’s going to be a a rubber match on Sunday but I think the the bullpen is just better uh if Cole
Roland was healthy then I think that would kind of even things out a little bit but he’s not and and the grand scheme of things is duk’s played better I think Dukes had a little bit of a a better schedule uh to to this point you know they they played Indiana they
Played coil um I think Duke is the team to play here I I can’t fault you I’m right there with you the only thing is I feel like in a rubber match I I would give the lean to Michael Massie um left to drinking Club thanks for tuning in he
Said the deacons will wake up there they are the guys maybe we’ll see they might I mean we yeah outside listen if Wake Forest does it if they wake up and they beat Duke two out of three uh then they deservedly stay in the number one spot
But supposed to do well yeah yeah but I think um to to I don’t think it’s out of the realm to predict Duke is going to win 2 to one and I don’t think that’s a a knock at wake Force by any means I think that’s a testament to how Duke
Good is or how good Duke is wow I can’t speak today it it worked hey and thanks nobody told me that the logo was backwards I did it on Johnny’s show last night and then I watched myself and sure enough it was the same so I had to flip
It there mids sentence earlier I don’t know to get one of the L Boys on I don’t all four of them but you hear that jie come on all right so we got a question from Drew here when stoval comes back who do you think Dave will sit between
Holt and sprag lot hard to sit yeah I agree it’s why I threw up the graphic so this game has been postponed to tomorrow spr lot he’s he’s second on the team actually first on the team in WRC plus yeah I agree you can’t really sit him I
Think I think you would move Holt right now to the bench and you have sprag lot at third obviously viiva ly keep him at short and then and then bring in uh Payton stoval at second and I hope that stoval ends up coming in as the leadoff
Guy because this offense really needs to pick it up don’t bring Stovall back until it’s a midweek yeah I I feel like Missouri the the opening weekend of SEC plays when we’ll see him he may get eased into it in a midweek I don’t know but MCN they do a really good job
Arkansas does and and we we’ll talk about it next with Florida but scheduling these like weaker opponents that are still going to have a high RPI because they’re probably going to run through their conference this is good and this is a good test projections have Arkansas winning uh but the biggest
Question mark for me is is Arkansas’s bats they’ve got to wake up I feel like this is going to be a repeat of what was it 2018 team they had below a 900 Ops I feel like 22 21 did it too with h Kevin cpps the bats look great at times and
Then they would fall asleep so I really want to see them just let it rip this weekend the double header with Haan Smith Brady tiger we know that both of those pitchers are Elite I’m not worried about MCN scoring more than us but I would like to also score more than two
Or three runs against mid major so rant over yeah I’ll let you if you got any any other comments I just think Arkansas plays up to competition and down to competition it’s they just kind of Sleepwalk through this they they get up for the games they need to um similar to
What Florida does you know I know we kind of revert back to those two teams a lot but you know we know them the best and and that they’re very good examples and many fast and I think both kind of Sleepwalk through the midweeks They Don’t Really Care especially if they
Lose them you know they might in the Press make it seem like they care but they’re all business on the weekends and they do a good job like you mentioned of scheduling tougher midweek uh as well as mid- major opponents Florida just naturally has Central Florida FAU you
Know other schools at their disposal Arkansas does the same and um sometimes it bites them you know those teams are good enough when they play up they can beat Arkansas and Florida uh but I think during the weekends is really when they really care to play uh but Florida and
Arkansas playoff competition in my opinion and then when it’s a team they should probably sweep three they kind of lull themselves through it it it could be frustrating at times yeah and the follow up also on Drew with spag lot while he is first or second I think Ross loic actually has
The higher WRC plus but pton Holt sitting at 91 I know it seems like he gets on base but as far as Crea runs he’s not he’s not doing it uh surprisingly Nolan Souza is third on the team with 168 and what he’s been doing
When he comes in and fills in I know he’s played a lot in the midweek with his Bat he looks like he’s going to be a good addition too so we’ll we’ll see yeah Dave’s gonna continue to to monitor at catcher as well I feel like Ryder hell’s really struggling right now which
He should he’s a true freshman so maybe give a give one of these other guys a shot bring him in this weekend and and switch it up okay moving on to Q’s Florida Gators they host St Mary’s and I kind of laughed when the projections
Came out because I get it it’s it’s high because Kate Fisher’s ER is high and Sierra uh is good so he’s probably going to regress back down to where he should be with that erra but as of right now I’ve kind of got this as a coin flip so
I took a little taste on plus 380 for St Mary’s it’s probably going to lose don’t go crazy but you know throw some lunch money on it five 10 bucks just sweat it out see if St Mary’s can keep it close Q tell me why I’m wrong I think you should have
Just played the runs I think it’s what plus four and a half I would have taken that it may be Florida’s not going to lose to St Mary’s on a Friday Kate Fischer I know the numbers are still kind of slowly creeping down you see his
ER you see his exit you see his Sierra they’re just so far apart uh he I think he pitched three and two3 or four Innings last week against a a better Miami Squad in terms of some competition he’s faced you know he pitched really well he’s going to get stretched out uh
It could be this weekend um kind of getting him ready for SEC play he’s going to be the leash is going to be lengthened a little bit Sully kind of right now is trying to see who his dogs are um and kind of get some confidence
When it particularly to Kade I think but I think now he’s going to start stretching them out to maybe five innings today and then six Innings because it’s it’s a reality the bullpen has has pitched a lot for Florida this year uh it’s similar to design you know
Peterson U being a true freshman Saturday Kate fiser kind of off that Rocky start we’re going to ease him into the the SEC play try to keep a little fresh uh but I I just I think the numbers are accurate but I think it the eye test is going to be a little
Different because I think the numbers are skewed for Cade right now yeah they definitely are but but to the numbers right now they are I think it’s accurate one that has already started I guess they moved it up because of the weather Austin P Auburn and I’m kind of glad
Because I think Austin P is already down 5 but these are two high-powered offenses I I said on John ev’s show last night that I wouldn’t be surprised if all these games go over Chase alsoa got the call for uh the Friday night start against Jacob Weaver both of these guys
Are mid3 Sierra but the the offens is you look at 139 WRC plus 131 uh Austin P actually batting over a thousand Ops I feel like the B the the ball’s going to be flying in the planes you’ve got wind uh 22 home runs each for
These clubs 52 hey Austin P thank you for the live update Sam all right Austin P get the bullpen going I like this do you have I know I love I love when y’all comment we’re going to talk to y’all the whole time so do you
Have anything in this one Austin P kind one of those surprising teams as far as their offensive production I kind of love it yeah I think they kind of got put on notice uh who was it they beat Mississippi State back to back in the midweek or was it Mississippi or I think
It was Mississippi State they kind of put themselves on uh on notice I think and TI the cat to Auburn man I didn’t think Auburn was going to be this good this year uh this early on and they’re impressive 10 to two I didn’t think I
Think kind of would be like a seven and5 or eight and4 team they’re obviously in the top 20 rankings and uh they look they look pretty dangerous um now obviously Gonzalez slid from Saturday to Sunday uh well technically they had Sunday TBA but I would think it’s it’s
Gonzales uh but but Meyers um I think he’s pitched he’s pitching hot other than alip you know alp’s Elite I think we’re going to see that as the season goes he’s their guy uh I’m looking to see Mississippi State yep thanks Sam I uh I they’re going to get through this
Weekend Auburn is but I’m really curious to see how Auburn is during play are they legit or they just kind of they’re getting on the right track and they were able to dominate early on and then kind of falter in SEC play when they play the PowerHouse teams I’m looking at tomorrow
Andrew Devon 265 ER 141 Sierra going against kind of flipped with Carson Meers low low ER but High Sierra so I feel like he’s going to regress a little bit especially against an offense like Austin P so if you’re going to give me four to one on Austin P tomorrow I’m
Going to take him again all right ACC play number 13 Virginia faces the lowly Miami Hurricane sitting at seven and five coming off series loss to big brother in Florida the Gators looked okay uh Daniel cuvet is a stud they did pick up one win against Florida
But I don’t know I think Virginia probably is the right side here even though Miami is playing at home should probably get you know have a get right spot can you make the case though for Miami in any of these matchups Virginia switching up the lineup Coen McKay is
Going to get the start today his numbers look pretty good Evan Blanco Jay wolfolk to finish out the weekend you notice anything there is no Jack O Conor he yeah he’s falling off it’s falling off so what do you think about the Cavs in your backyard I don’t think Miami’s that good
I think they have two good hitters and Jason Tores and Daniel kuet Blake seir Elite last year I don’t know what’s going on he did leave the team he had a family issue from what I heard you know is that still lingering in the in the
Mindset you know I hopefully he can kind of turn it around but outside of those to cuve Torres they’re really struggling short stop play just hit a hard ground ball to Short Stop and you’ll get on base uh Miami Short Stop is terrible I actually thought Hernandez pitched okay
Sunday against Florida uh he left a couple pitches hanging I thought slesinger is their best pitcher I thought I thought Gage zal was consistent but I think Ray slesinger man that three quarter half arm slot is just nasty I think they left him in slightly too long Florida started figuring it out
And T off as he started hanging pitches but I think he’s a real deal but Virginia obviously countered that with Evan Blanco going Saturday man that’s tough I if zal could pitch like he did last week for the first four Innings I think they have a real good shot to stay in
The game uh especially because we haven’t seen Colin McCay pitch against anybody solid yet so this will be a big test it is there’s definit a difference in pitching on a Tuesday Wednesday versus a Friday so if he kind of gets rattled then I think Miami can can maybe
Make a a chance tonight but if McKay’s dialed in then I don’t see any chance Miami can win best Chances with leser but then with Blanco pitching it’s going to be tough you took the words right out of my mouth that was what that I was going to back Miami tomorrow and then
When I saw that Blanco wasn’t gonna start it’s like no that means he’s gonna go Saturday playing chess yeah it sucks Conor’s good man he’s a good coach he knows what to do Miami still may be worth a look if you’re gonna give me plus 120 if the line is Sim similar ra
Schlesinger has the better stats so I’ll be curious to see what the pro say similar to last week’s lines yeah all right Lon drinking Club cover your ears your uh fifth ranked horn frogs are are the luckiest 13-0 team college baseball but you know what you’ll take it every damn time uh I
Think in eight of the 13 games they’ve had a less than 10% win probability at one point or the next the projections like Kansas who they’re known for basketball okay let’s not sugarcoat it I can refute that easily that’s why we need to have on you show okay listen
Left and drinking Club let’s place a bet you you figure out the terms but or what’s on on the stake but I guarantee you Kansas takes one of three against TCU you can I would jump into that you can give me odds we can decide on what
The what the payment should be what I need to do if I need to rock on my or rock out my TCU hat for an episode we’ll see so just name your price but I think Kansas loses I I think Kansas loses a series TCU is gonna lose a game I really
Like Kansas with Reese Dutton going tonight he’s got the lowest Sierra on the team uh well actually no Grant Adler does of the starting rotation but Payton tally hasn’t been super impressive uh I think he’s definitely hitable none of them have TCU TCU is going to regress and it’s not I’m
Not saying TCU is overrated hell I’ve got a in Pocket play on them to win the College World Series I hope if Arkansas’s out I hope TCU wins the whole damn thing however well it’s just unsustainable right you look at their stats and this is these aren’t the stats
Of a 13-0 team I mean you could flip back and look at Miami stats who’s seven and five and I actually think Miami’s higher in just about everything thing uh so I agree not taking that bet thought let’s do it listen yeah I mean it’s a this is a
Testament to TCU to go I mean what is what is Kos saying in this Dugout like are they doing cocaine or they like what is what is going on in this locker room to to be able to or this Dugout to just come out and obliterate in the second
Half of games what sense no I I agree with that it is I mean they’re they’re all in a slump but yeah that is a testament right they’re in a slump especially on the mound and they are winning the games so that is a huge Testament to the team but there’s only
So much luck in baseball and to you it almost seems and I could be dead wrong but it almost seems like they’re using up all the luck to where they could just have some bad beats later on and I hope I’m wrong because I want TCU to
Obviously make it to the final four like they did last year year because I think it’s great for baseball to have those big names out there I think it makes College World Series incredible but I’ll tell you man pton toy it’s an adjustment pitch from witch state to TCU and it’s
Only going to get harder when they start playing well yeah I mean absolutely anything can happen uh again I we’re both sitting on uh Matt and I are sitting on on Futures the Big 12 but gonna lose some because well look at Tennessee they went what 56 and N or
Something like that and with two seasons they didn’t even make the College World Series because they just they had lucky games they were so hot whether they were in the slump or their guys kind of woke up and they just got beat by a team that
Had better luck at the time and by Notre Dame and and it just is what it is this 13-0 run is is coming to an end here and I think the same for Texas A&M now Texas A&M hasn’t struggled nearly as much as TCU but eventually teams are going to
Lose it’s just baseball you can’t go 56 and0 in college baseball it’s it’s impossible so I think I think this weekend it’s it’s not a matter of if it’s when and I think Kansas can get it done at least one of the three games yeah and don’t lie I’m not throwing
Shade at at TCU by any means yeah this is against the Razer backs right here at Bon Walker TCU to win that fville Regional I think they were like plus 220 that was easy money there was not a hotter team in baseball but you’re going through that hot cold hot again they did
It last year started off I left left Arlington after they obliterated Arkansas there yeah and I said man TCU looks like the real deal I think they were I don’t know 50 to1 45 to1 to win the College World Series I placed a little bet on them there but in the end
It they did they fell off a little bit through conference play and then they got hot at the right time again and I feel like that’s all you can ask for regard like regardless what happens they they are going to lose games and they are going to be just fine because of
Their potential uh TCU has played probably the hardest schedule in baseball Florida G Coast was the number one Ops team in the country last year and eight and over versus Pack 12 they’re 11-0 against good competition I wouldn’t bet against them all thank you for tuning in 64 anal Lees I agree I
Think they are a good team however there is yeah we’re not saying that they’re a bad team yeah they’re they’re 13-0 I don’t think they’re going to get to 16-0 before they get to 15 and one and I think it happens this weekend I 15 and
One is still a great record yeah I’m not you can still win a National Title with a loss it it has been done yeah Arkansas’s got the number one pitching staff in the country and we’ve lost to Oklahoma State by one and James Madison so it’s it’s okay they are fitting the
Hot cold hot and that’s that’s that’s really the only Trend that you need to fit you know outside of maybe the Sierra and all that but TCU is right there they’re a team that can win at all for sure they’re just not gonna go undefeated a team that collectively
Doesn’t have as many wins on the season as TCU we have Yukon taking on UCSB mat Matt AER is projected to go ton not uh vers Ian cook who’s not been good he was good last year not sure what’s happened it hasn’t translated into the 2024 season thus far for the Huskies
They’re three and six is this a getright spot do the gaos get the sweep here over Yukon yes I think last week was their get right I think this is their finally in you know third gear and not stuck in second I think they’re especially at
Home man again I talked about this on Jeff Dawson show East Coast Sports investors last week I get Yukon plays in a cold area you know it’s cold in Connecticut right now there’s no doubt about it but they have got to schedule better I mean they they bounced from
California to Florida like to Alabama and then back to California and they’re supposed to be in California for two weeks like at some point these kids want to go see home and I know it’s tough but you can also use that cold weather to your advantage if you can get some games
In there um again I know it’s tough but this living on the road for your first month and a half two months you just that’s unsustainable you just can’t win when you when you’re away from family when you’re away from your you know your hometown and your home field and and
Facilities it’s this is where they get swept and and frankly I don’t think it’s close all right I’m I think UCSB sweeps them as well 24 ranked Texas Longhorns it was on your [ __ ] list last week number 17 Texas Tech the winds going to
Be blowing in lck I think I saw 20 m per hour winds tonight this is going to be fun learon Johnson Jr is going to be tested we’ve got a coin flip basically the spread for those that aren’t familiar with betting college baseball about 115 115 is as
Close as you’re going to get to a you know minus 110 this pick yeah uh Kyle Robinson he’s been somewhat impressive kind of the beneficiary of a weaker schedule I would say they did get trampled in Oregon against Oregon State in a midweek uh which you know you can’t
Really you got to throw out the midweeks they’re not starting they’re starting rotation but Texas I mean just below 11 to3 lead against Vanderbilt they had a 99.8% win probability in that game you lose I was on Texas plus one and a half I thought that was money in the bank
Already spent the money and they give it up they don’t even cover the Run line they lose 14 to 11 at inex what is your mindset going through that and then you follow it up by just absolutely laying an egg in a should have been a like much
Needed win game against A&M in the midweek yeah I agree I mean problem on his hands I feel like to have to leave Houston I’m sure that bus ride was extremely quiet to then have to play Texas A&M you know who’s a rival for God knows when since the test of time even
Though it’s not a conference it doesn’t matter when it’s a rivalry you know Florida Florida State still hate each other even though it’s not a conference win or loss Texas Texas A&M still hate each other even though it’s not a conference you know deciding win or loss
To to have to blow leads like that in Houston take a somber ride home turn around get your mind right against Texas C&M which you didn’t you lost I believe nine to2 really had a pathetic showing then you can’t even be like okay we’ve just got like a cupcake to bounce back
Let’s get our minds right you have to play the number 17 team in the country Texas Tech who like you mentioned Kyle Robinson is pitching very well and I I look at this man and and I think it’s mispriced personally I think to give Texas minus 115 is a little crazy I
Think Texas is man they should probably be plus money here to be honest I think Texas Tech should be like minus 145 in this spot they’re they’re in my opinion starting off a little slow offensive L and I think they get it going against Texas here this is probably the best
Offense that Texas on paper will have faced I think LSU is up there but Texas Tech man what they can do to you and they have so many guys that can do it just wait till Gavin cash starts to get going and Gage harelson wow I think it
Could be this weekend there’s G be a lot of horns down you’re not even playing this in Austin which makes it even worse like you have to get your mind right on a road in a hostile environment it this is going to be bad I think so and the I would be
Surprised if they get swept the wind in lck is going to expose pitching and if you’re gonna it’s if it’s gonna come down to bullpens and offense Texas can’t throw to us dude Texas could throw to us I mean they were getting smashed their Bullpen has a
Higher Sierra and a and their bats have a lower WRC plus the numbers that that 392 Sierra if you take take out the starting pitchers from that 392 I bet you it’s 792 yep I hope the Red Raiders just absolutely oit think I’m calling for a sweep I think it’s a
Sweep it’d be a big win for Tech I feel like to to beat learon Johnson Jr too FEA oh yeah the locker rooms just got to be pretty dejected right now after losing the way that they’ve lost it they’re sitting at seven and five pretty much I mean if you lose this
Series you’re not out of the Big 12 race but but damn it’s a rough start pretty it’s gonna be yeah a rough road to try to get back into it I’ll put it that way say that the and we’ll move on but the big 12 I think is going to be better
Than maybe even I anticipated Houston now Houston’s blown a couple leads but they could give Texas problems if Texas can’t figure it out Central Florida I don’t know if they play this schedule uh and if they do I don’t know I can’t sit there and tell you if it’d be home away
But nobody saw Central Florida starting a season 9-1 I mean for Big 12 Play if you get a dejected Texas anybody can beat you a dejected any team can get beat so I think the Big 12 might be harder competition than uh than what we probably initially thought back in
January yeah I I agree and I was down on the Big 12 outside of Texas and TCU but we both were are I’m not going to be surprised now if Texas Tech playing in June I’m not going to be surprised if Texas is fourth or fifth in the Big 12
I’m not going to be surprised if UCF is up there in the top three I from what I’ve seen thus far they look very impressive they’re going to go on the road take on a tough Oklahoma team this weekend I say tough they’re not great but they’re they’re also a formidable
Team of decency to say the least all right is anything else catch your eye this weekend anything you’re looking at that was not covered in the starting lineup um yeah I just the only other because I had it in I think Florida State takes care of business against New
Orleans I think cam lighter is the real deal for that team it’ll be interesting to see them during ACC play if they’re kind of real or not I think Lake Jarrett’s got them on the right track and then um Coastal Coastal plays Michigan at 400m today Michigan uh couple decent pitchers I
Don’t want to say they’re Elite but coastal’s got a 10 game win streak I did take Coastal man I don’t teams riding 10 gamees win streaks it’s hard again we talked about just teams are going to lose it’s not if it’s a win so be a
Little wary that but I think Coastal is is every bit worthy of a good deep June run so uh I’ll continue to play them but I’m trying to think of the matchups UCF will be a good matchup to watch just just kind of see if they’re real deal like you just touched on
Um did we let me ask you a question because they’re playing right now North Eastern they were kind of a a dark horse there that we liked beginning of the Season then they dropped that series that we thought they should have won against Arizona yeah they’re quietly back they’re coming back I think
The pressure got to him personally I think they start we sell on nor Eastern too soon like should nor Eastern just be an auto play right now with Wyatt Scotty Jake jig leot and I can’t think of the third pitcher off the top of my head I we got plenty
Of time with them personally we had plenty of time and sometimes they don’t even hit the books because of their small conference you know they really don’t get a lot of love in the CAA so if you can find them hit him but I wouldn’t be like overly stressed because we
Can’t I think I think Santa Barbara might might be the better team still I love Dallas Baptist just that’s a team oh yeah well and that’s not even in comparison Bap mid major plus 350 to make the College World Series that’s the top eight I feel like that’s still a
Good value bet they do seem like they have start North Sam is that I’m assuming nor Eastern yeah which I mean they had do it with Mike serota cam they they’re solid they had all the makings they just didn’t put it together against it’s like they read the the NCAA
Insiders guide and press clips and stuff but I would like to see and it would never happen uh yes Sam I I think you are right like UCSB and North East and just start off slow due to pressure and and uh they’ll be fine but I would like
To see in a perfect world Coastal versus Dallas Baptist to get in Omaha like I think that would just be an incredible series what would you make the total in that game and can we get it on the moon that’s all I want to know I mean I would think
Minimum now see and I tend to go a little lower in in playoff baseball because there’s a lot more pitching changes a lot shorter leashes so this is high for for playoff ball I would say 15 and a half that would be fun maybe outside oh
My God it’ be a blast be a blast Ryan Johnson but but coastal’s pitching is not terrible I call I mean he got rocked in the one Illinois game but he’s pitched really well meckley’s pitched really well the bullpen held up especially without having Teddy shy which was a big loss
For them I thought they’ve actually pitched better than maybe we all thought I didn’t say they were going to be elite but I thought their pitching would be subpar they’re not subpar you know it’s going to be a great game midweek March 12th TCU DBU God it’s incred
I think the teams always get screwed in terms of bad seating Dallas Baptist always draws just a rough playoff Coastal now obviously they won in 16 and ECU they just always get bad draws and it it keeps those teams frankly from being out of Omaha or being
At Omaha more often can we just give them a nice easy draw for once like let’s get them there outside of coastal had that magical run but let’s get Dallas Baptist there let’s get ECU there and let’s see what what can happen no you know what happens is Dallas Baptist goes to
Fville like fville gets the shittiest draws like we always get Oral Roberts or Dallas Baptist or yeah but that’s a tough tough draw for that team we’re gonna get some really good mid major and then you send you send like a Texas with Ivan Melendez hitting in a in a 260 foot
Base Park of ECU and he’s he’s hit balls to to the highway I mean just a tough draw they they can’t ever catch a break Co had to run into Duke I mean that’s just tough let’s do the Best Bets Duke plus 160 was the number I got
Virginia minus 143 talked about those two Kansas putting my money where my mouth is plus 250 I think they can stay with this TCU team it’s not going to be pretty don’t try to watch it and even if Kansas is up 12 to nothing it’s not safe
Until that final strike or that final out St Mary’s going against Q’s Florida Gators they’re probably not going to win but plus 360 on a team that the projections had pretty much neck and neck I’ll take the risk all our unit sizes and everything are going to be uploaded bet tracker at NCAA
Insiders.com this is not a full unit play don’t go crazy on it maybe 510 bucks UCF plus 130 that’s been postponed to tomorrow now not sure if it’s going to Avid the bet or roll it over most have been voiding it we get no consistency with the books it’s been voids All
Season uh not in Arkansas always California minus 105 I like the cow Bears UCLA I think they’re a fugazi Duke wake for us this number may be gone I’m sorry to give out a stale number under 11 and a half I think it opened 12 and a
Half and it got hit immediately Austin some place 13 and a half Austin P plus three and a half also put a little bit on the money line uh I need to update Sam where are you uh plus three and a half for Austin P Dallas Baptist UC
Santa Barbara my favorite two mid Majors with Ryan Johnson Matt AER two of the best mid Maj major pitchers going parlay them for a little plus 108 and then lastly Alabama North Carolina LSU I’m backing three studs Luke hulleman Ben Hess and foger fuler we’ve got to get
