they don't see a damn thing the dudes in green do though Billy bands and chosen one they just showed up today you see those greens those are MVPs they can see all the good stuff the UFC picks the injury updates parlay and prop ideas and then this is what really matters these two channels down here are my props and my picks for the entire week on everything this is how we track all our results nobody's lying about anything I know there's a guy out there lecturing the world about how Rico knows is not very good at what he does there's no way he's 60% against the spread in his lifetime over 400 games yes I am oh yes I am I might even be higher I potentially am higher I remember I had two weeks back to back 37% if I didn't have those weeks oh my goodness it'd be amazing people don't realize this this is what we do man I pick games and Vegas stands no chance speaking of standing no chance there's this dude named Dalton waserman via Dalton waserman they always quote via Dalton waserman on Twitter and this is PFF they always interview some dude named Dalton and I've let Dalton know just so you know I said another Dalton wasman failure I've let him know he don't know what the hell he's talking about he said top 10 Heisman candidates and this was before week one and he said Carson Beck Dylan Gabriel jayen milro Jackson Dart sador Sanders olly Gordon quinon Judkins Travis Hunter G green I immediately interrupted and I said bro no running backs are getting invited to New York shout out to jenty he went out and rushed for 250 yards six touchdowns Rico he's going to get to New York he if he does that no no no and no again I remember 2018 there were three running backs JK Dobbins Ohio State but we're talking about power four power five teams JK Dobbins Ohio State who was it Jonathan Taylor Wisconsin and chuba chuba H hubard chuba hubard all three of them were over 2,000 yards rushing not 1600 which was uh shred last year right the kid out of uh Missouri every year there's a leading rusher 16 1800 yards never getting to New York never and here we had I remember 2018 three of them nobody's going to New York running backs don't make it bro so I told this guy this is a terrible list you have running backs on here that that they'll never make it I don't like this list and I said you better have Cam Ward Noah faid Quinn uers and T-Mac you let me know how that let me know how that prediction is going after week one somebody let me know because cam Ward just blew the brakes off of a power four team I saw a lot of statistical halves right I saw a lot of great numbers in statistics from a lot of players and they did it against inferior competition they did it against the FCS or a vastly underman group of five teams cam Ward cam Ward did it to Florida in the swamp and let me be clear I had to hear all summer long from JD pickle I think that's his name right pickle or or Pate Josh Pate these dudes are paid to Hype up a conference to talk nonsense I get paid to be accurate I don't just talk out of turn I got to be accurate or I don't or I lose MVP accuracy is what validates me there's not a paid sponsorship in the world there's not a damn platform I'm trying to get on there is no network I'm trying to get hired by I'm selfemployed I love my life and I'm accurate as hell and there is no way those guys are telling me Florida would would win nine games in another conference well not in the ACC mother flipper not against Miami if they played Miami 10 times they'd be 0 and 10 I told the world Miami is the seventh best team in the nation and people laughed at me in the preseason polls people attacked me all over Twitter I don't put this type of content on Tik Tok anymore I don't even deal with ti Tok Tik Tok doesn't pay me they're not worth my time but oh my goodness were we was I right and I'm going to stick to it shout out to me shout out to the ACC today we're going to get to it if you got questions get them in the chat now while we get there here's another one here's another one JD Pickle's D bum ass JD pickle put out a top 10 quarterbacks in college football top 10 quarterbacks dudes like will Howard on the list like we didn't just see will Howard for an entire season at K State how do you lose your job at K State or at least get pressured by a freshman and now you're magically top 10 who where are we coming up with this I let him know another embarrassing take from these dudes no Seth henigan is Criminal shout out to Memphis and cam Ward is top five no ffid is top 10 it's not a game out here you got to know players you got to know what you're doing by the way if you want to know my rankings my my information on teams when you go to YouTube and you go to the homepage do not click on videos If you go to videos yeah you're going to find some videos and you're going to go through and you're going to be sifting through a lot I highly recommend you use the playlist but this live tab right here is the magic all right if you're an MVP you should be looking at post by the way posts are like all the messages I write to all the MVPs really important okay but the live tab is the magic the live tab are all the past shows like the one you're watching now and the live tab will show you all the different previews I had for every conference the rankings of defensive players or defensive team rankings preseason top 25 offensive rankings you want to go back and learn about transfer portal what I think of head coaches all these questions you guys have it's already been made top wide receiver cores for the entire season top 50 first year starting quarterbacks top top 25 sophomore running backs like I have a ton of content for you to go learn about all the teams and then the transfer portal episodes are here where I talked about every single transfer portal there ever was just go to the live tab man I'm trying to change your guys' life there's a lot of injury updates I'm going to go over them very quickly uh one big one here well nothing's really too big to me it just happens right uh Brandon Spectre here out for the season for Jacksonville State who cares Jacksonville State doesn't even throw to their receivers and I think they have the worst quarterback in America and Logan some others but they also they have other good wide receivers on the bench like they got a guy named Gerard he's a division 2 transfer when I when I watch him on tape Gerard buoy he's utterly great and he can't get in the two deep at at all he's always listed third or fourth string and I don't know what that's about man my assessment is he should be in the starting lineup I'm serious I hope this injury leads to that another terrible injury is elante brown this is the Nebraska transfer down again man he's out at least until November when you watched him in the Michigan State game against FAU he had more juice than all the other Michigan State weapons if you will if they had weapons I don't know they were shooting blanks out there they look terrible Shad out tayen Childs I'll talk about that tomorrow on the Big 10 episode but out until November so he'll be gone till November like why cleff if you don't know the reference you probably don't remember 911 I can't mess with you Darius Taylor un uncertain on the timeline dare I say Darius Taylor is just injury-prone he seems to be very fragile not Dependable they better figure that out or it's going to be a long season without their best player because to make no mistake about it he's their best player speaking of Best Player Taj Brooks listed as questionable for week two now if you guys don't know injury reports I don't want to insult anyone injury reports I learned this as a as a sports writer when I was a sports writer I used to get all these injury reports for the NFL and the NFL we used to post them in the paper and the people needed those for their fantasy football stuff people needed those for gambling purposes so I always posted the line for the NFL and I never knew what any of it meant when I was younger and I had to sit down with one of my sports editors and he was like oh injury reports let me explain it to you so now it's common knowledge and I'm talking to a bunch of Gam so they know what it is but I'll help you guys out there is active for the game then there's something called probable and probable is like 95% chance these guys are going to play I very rarely see anybody with a probable injury rating not play it's I can't even remember it it's not even significant if you see somebody probable they're going to play okay then there's questionable and I got to be honest questionable is straight up 5050 5050 they're going to play so you've got active probable questionable and then the LA the last two are doubtful and out obviously out they're not playing doubtful I I swear to you it's lower than 40% it's got to be 25% when I see doubtful I already know that dude's not playing so when you see this Taj Brooks it's a little scary for a couple reasons first and foremost I have a Futures bet on taj Brooks for seasonal yards I really need him to play every game that's that's a reality and if he's questionable against week two that explains the spread and I'll talk about that on the Big 12 day because the spread is pretty close with Texas Tech and and their opponent uh next couple stuff not a real big deal getting closer to week two depth we'll play week to Darius Lasser okay thank you very much those are the injury updates that I have so far let's talk about the ACC before I get into this though I'm going to jump over to the chat I'm going to see if you guys have any questions I will be going back and forth if you have questions put them in the chat I'll get to them and then we'll talk about results we'll talk about this week's schedule or this week's game and if it's not on the MVP chart I will give you a prediction I will give you a play or an idea of what's going to happen on the game if it's on the MVP chart I will not talk about it if you want to know watch the videos become an MVP but this is where we give out the free plays and kind of my idea of how things are going okay that being said let me jump over to the chat and we're in the chat today sorry about that o I'm me I'm out here messing around let me do this real quick I I'm I hate showing you guys

playlists like the MVP locks playlist and you can see all the plays and all the picks and all the charts and everything but if you go to patreon the the the idea behind going to patreon is you can

yes we ate I want to say some MVPs didn't eat some MVPs don't know how to bet bro I'm watching MVPs on the Discord server losing their mind can I show you guys something this is crazy let me show you guys something I pick above 60% on the uh against the spread and but if you go to one of our channels on the server let me pull this up for you guys if you go to one of our channels on the server it's called bad beats and my god do these dudes show up and did an 11 leg parlay with my pcks and he hit on everything 11 legs and then he missed on Arizona to cover the spread in the middle at the end of the night the end of the day an 11 leg parlay and and these are the guys that being an MVP they'll Miss and go Rico Rico doesn't know what he's doing what I get 60% right and you're doing well this is three legs I respect it but some of these dudes are doing some amazing legs bro it's crazy I'll never understand it's Troy dude Troy's out here legs this [ __ ] was wild and they'll tell you oh I was so close I only did six legs and at 500 bucks they must not like their money there is no way you do this this just looks wild to me a 100 bucks to make 2,800 you don't need these types of numbers my recommendation is get it to plus 100 and flip your unit bro flip your unit this is nuts I'm gonna get 60% you can't do this and this is what these guys are doing oh man I got a bad beat no bro you are out of your damn mind look look at UFC I'm picking UFC fights you know how many times I've gotten a UFC uh full card correct I'm talking about the whole card once once and I do this for a living and I

content best show for football they don't know but Rico knows Sean Gadson it's supposed to be your friends don't know but yes you have really good friends if you're an MVP you're surrounded by smart people they know except for my the big homie I got an argument with big homie today on the Discord server he's an MVP shout out to him dude's talking wild he thinks the three lost team will be in the top 10 it's very rare very rare for a three lost team to be in the top 10 last time it happened 2020 covid and then 2018 you get one team at most homies thinking there's going to be three three lost teams in the top 10 not happening man it's just not a real thing I've studied this I think P Pate is way better than the other guy don't even know his name oh Donnie I don't know any of their like I I say their names because I see them on Twitter I've never watched an episode of anything they do I've never watched e babe do I watch ESPN no not a chance in hell I watch ESPN unless I'm trying to look at a live game nothing they're saying is going to teach me anything I'm I'm digging in the crates bro I'm I'm way busy I can't watch their their nonsense thoughts on Syracuse struggles to stop Anthony tus and adjust accordingly do you think this will be a glaring issue for them moving forward K sad what a great question I will talk about it when I talk about the results thank you for the question every time I make a run I don't know what that is Dominic Duke money line seems free to me shout out to you STX congratulations has Boston College improved in the offseason with portal Etc I will I can talk about that I can talk about that Dominic we go over Boston College team I like that question uh you know what I'm gonna answer that question right now Dominic great question for those of you who aren't MVPs you probably don't know the answer to this question so I'll help you out I've done a deep dive if you go to the patreon and you actually search on the homepage for patreon if you use this search bar right here and you type in Boston College you will see a video where I talked about Boston College this offseason and I did an in-depth analysis on their roster and their team now it's it it's a win totals video you can't do it anymore because uh you can't you can't bet on it anymore because the season already started but you can learn about the teams now if you're not an MVP I'll give you a quick rundown I won't go too much in depth because we're going to keep it wave tops here but first and foremost there's Jaden ski Jaden ski up here wide receiver if you guys don't know Jaden ski I'm a huge fan of him I think he's a professional I watched him on tape for the very first time this offseason and I stopped what I was doing made a Tik Tok about it I made a YouTube about it and that's actually how I got my invite to the festar camp if you guys don't know I went to the next gym festar Camp uh when was that sweetie may may in May I went and looked at all the best high school players from 2026 and 2027 and I got invited to go there because I identified Jaden ski as a hell of a player I want to tell you guys what happened there Jaden ski is a kid as a freshman committed to Boston College he was a local kid he said I'm going to go to Boston College he went to one Camp they took pictures of him made him a three star and he stopped going to camps he didn't care anymore I'm committed to my local school that I've always wanted to go to I'm good and the recruiting websites completely ignored him because he never went and all got on the camps he never did that top eight list top six give me a graphic he never did any of that [ __ ] he just said I'm going here I'm locked in that's it so the recruiting websites just assumed he's nothing special and didn't hype him up in any way shape or form so I don't have any anywhere online anybody's telling me Jaden SK is great I'm watching tape on every single player in America in the two deep and I watch Joe Joseph Griffin Joe Griffin transferred out of the school he left and when Joe Griffin hit the transfer portal he was second best receiver on Boston College last year outside of Lewis Bond and I see Griffin hit the transfer Port I'm like okay well who's going to step up and I start look studying the the wide receiver room and Jaden SK tape comes on and I'm like man they said he's three stars ah they don't know what the hell they're talking about that's a beast of a player so they obviously don't have the quarterback that's going to go out there and air it out and do all those great things shout out to Thomas castalanos great dual threat quarterback but 1100 yard rusher but just a terrible thrower that man is so inaccurate he's bound to throw interceptions every single game go look it up interceptions every single and I'm saying interceptions plural because he throws about two a game go look it up guys it's wild but Jaden SK is special if he can find a quarterback to get him the ball I love his talent gerad gerad Bradley gered Bradley's a transfer 65 from Texas Tech he manages to find the end zone because of his size the fact that he got on the field of Texas Tech is impressive to me because there are really good wide receivers at Texas Tech like the wide receiver room's deep and I'm I'm really high on a couple wide receivers that aren't in the two deep right now at Texas Tech so to see Jad on the field it means they have a weapon a huge one Lewis Bond's their leading receiver from last year he's still good offensive line has some work to do on the left-and side but the right side is very strong tight end Morales congratulations you're here you're a little older you get a little better at least they found depth but I'm not moved like that quarterback room I don't like it at all and I don't think Bill O'Brien likes it either they brought in Grayson James from FIU he's not listed here on the website but he's the starter who lost his job the I think he was um North Duncanville right yeah Duncanville quarterback out of Texas looked utterly terrible at FIU then he transfers over here they told me he was doing well in Spring ball I don't see him on the two deep here for our Lads but who knows our Lads doesn't have everything that's accurate castalanos is a beast out of we County here in Georgia just a threat dude can't throw but he can run his ass off I like him he's slippery Kai robar is a stud trean Ward is the backup running back here he's a transfer from K State originally from Florida State very good player change of pace back smaller guy can do can make people Miss on the defensive line their defensive tackles are beast they're going to plug the middle and do their thing quantarius Hutchins over here converted tight end going back to defensive end their defensive ends are very senior ladden but they're not very productive at least not on tape they don't look great Davon Crouch is the leader well him and camar well he's young I'm sorry I I shouldn't say he's young he's a junior but he hasn't played a whole lot he's mainly been special teamer you have Cam Arnold cam Arnold is him cam Arnold is him he's the leader of this defense IMO in my opinion Sione Hala is a good young player he's actually went to St John bosow high school so I I think he's pretty special as well Amari Jackson is the bees knees on defense one of the best corners you'll see anywhere it's pretty good and they they have a bunch of younger guys in the secondary but I believe in Halley their former head coach he's a good secondary coach a good DB coach their new defensive coordinator same thing a very good defensive coach or defensive backs coach been coaching for about 30 years I really believe in their development on the defensive side of the ball as opposed to get finding Superstars so that's the rundown on who Boston College is and their roster I think they got better oh by the way don't don't sleep on mwan another transfer pretty good player should probably be in the rotation with Tomlin I believe all these guys will get some some play some burn I don't know about Reed Harris getting on the field or any of these other guys but those guys really stick out to me those five it doesn't really matter they don't throw the ball effect excuse me effectively for the most part great question though thanks for uh pressing me to to talk about an a an entire roster in the ACC I can do that for every single Team guys I know every player in America um I do that for half an hour on every single Team all offseason long please become an MVP you'll get the videos where I talk about win percentages and win totals and I break down every single position group and I talk about these teams in depth this is why I can pick games against the spread better than anyone in the world is I actually know the teams I like I know the players I've been following them their whole careers I didn't just meet them this week I didn't just do a quick pick while they're matching up like I don't do that stuff man I know these guys and when you know them for that duration of time you get an understanding of who they are and what they're capable of on the field so thanks for the question I appreciate you I'll go back to the chat now and then we'll start talking about results from last week uh looking here I ate all weekend Jaylen Ron yes you did shout out to you man I was up five units good week one there you go just hit on a three CFL plays too oh goodness you're Canadian or you just bet on Canadians if you bet on Canadian games you

going to score a touchdown I was pretty dialed in last night for the LSU USC game MVP's eight if they bet on the first half under that I told him to I was really high on the under you got two teams losing Heisman Trophy winners it's obvious you lose NFL draft picks in the wide receiver room on both teams you lose Heisman Trophy winners at quarterback new defensive coordinators an emphasis on defense a removal of some talented players yes the over under is going to be incorrect by Vegas they just didn't anticipate that nonsense thoughts on C's offense this past week against UC Davis I will definitely talk about it when I go over the results after this chat here Miami winning the ACC shocker way to go out on the ledge there Travis Saturday is my birthday and my gift will be your awesome UFC analysis bets and a very appreciative MVP thanks for all the insightful analysis yes please don't come in here and talk about any MVP plays Jared Bush the Baylor line was 14 and a half and Baylor money line is 525 but wow Baylor so bad the line should be 21 points all right Chavis Bosler Baylor's not in the ACC but I don't I don't think you know anything about Baylor to say they're bad that's crazy you guys study rosters bro study rosters that's just wild all right let me get let me get after this we'll start talking about the results in the ACC so let's go over it first and foremost week one here we go we've obviously got a game tonight if you want to watch it with me I'll be on YouTube for the live stream please come and watch it it'll be cool I'll talk to you guys about live bets or whatever the hell is going on anyways we already talked about Georgia Tech Florida State you saw it happen Georgia Tech Beats Florida State congratulations SMU beats Nevada now we just saw Nevada beat Troy so we kind of know excuse me we kind of know that SMU is or that Nevada's a pretty decent team they're pretty decent I don't think people realize it I think people are in denial right now but Brennan Lewis has been a starting quarterback for three years now at the FBS level and it's starting to show because he's running very effectively moving the chains and a coaching change to Jeff SCH who's a former Montana State head coach who knows what to do he always gets more out of his players he's doing great on the flip side SMU being overly talented and I'm starting to wonder what Rhett Lashley worked on in the off season I think they've just been reading their own headlines and their own press clippings and they've just been paying a bunch of players and they're losing their inability to to get Hunger you know when you when you get money there's no incentive to be great again I I want to quote the great Nate Diaz Nate Diaz said rich people shouldn't be fighting Nate Diaz said rich people shouldn't fight because they have nothing to fight for like you can fight but you have an option to lose some days I I'll look at my paycheck and I'll be like man I made enough money to take a day off not a chance in hell I'm still hungry I still want more I still have things to do when you look at the SMU players they look like they collected paychecks from the boosters they look like they've all been paid handsomely and they are playing like [ __ ] I'm not impressed with SMU and I also think the coaches are struggling with keeping Preston Stone in the game they don't want them they K Jennings is their future Kevin Jennings and they're doing their best to try to get give him playing time and keep him effective and anytime I it's that thing I told you guys when you make a mistake you stare at the sideline and wonder if you're getting the hook that's how it is I'll never forget that feeling I was a junior at a new school in high school I was I just transferred schools I went to the big School the best school I was a superstar at my previous school they moved me over here to this new school and I was fighting for playing time as a junior coach put me in I can remember missing a tackle was a starting Corner starting free safety depending on what game I was in and I I uh I missed the tackle and I was so nervous that I was going to get pulled out of the game I kept looking back at the sideline kept looking back at my defensive coordinator like is he going to sub me out is he going to every mistake I was making all all season long I was just like looking over my shoulder I couldn't focus and then my senior year there's no chance in hell they're pulling me out of games no doubt in my mind I'm starting I'm playing no matter what I know I'm the best player there ever was like I'm focused when you have that immense amount of confidence and you're not looking over your shoulder you play different bro you got your mojo back you play with an edge and you know coach has your back I'll never forget the first time my coach talked positively about me in the newspaper they said who are your best players he said here are my key returners and he listed me on the key returners list I was like hell yeah I'll never forget that day bro that's real talk right there so when I look at a guy like Preston Stone when he's out on the field it looks like he keeps looking over his shoulder like are they going to pull me out for Jennings Are they going to pull me out they're going to give this guy all my playing time and he's making mistakes and he can't focus on what he needs to do coaches need to go out reaffirm and reassure that he is the leader of this team and they won't do it because they're trying to keep Jennings on this team engaged and and then if you have two quarterbacks I want to I've always said this if you have two quarterbacks you don't have a quarterback if you have two quarterbacks you don't have have one if you have two quarterbacks you have a locker room that prefers one or the other you have wide receivers that eat dinner and lunch with one or the other there's a group text and it's the wide receivers talking to one of these guys they're not cool with both of them they're picking one of them and they prefer one of them more than the other this is a disjointed team and I got news for you seeing that performance against Nevada if you pair that up with how they looked in their bowl game which I guys I the one trick I have better than everybody else is I don't discredit bowl games bowl games are the first game of the next season I Reco there's opt outs everybody went to the draft that's not even the real no that is the team every opt out and everybody who went to the draft is not on that team this year they're gone what you had on the field is who you are now you might address some of your shortcomings with the transfer portal and if you think you're getting freshman and you're too deep more power to you but what I saw in a bowl game is who you are and I watched SMU get blown out by Boston College in the bowl game this is a team dominating in the group of five and then you get paired up with an ACC team and you get smacked in the bowl game then you show up and you start the season and you're struggling with Nevada that's that's terrible speaking of terrible NC State in Western Carolina now Western Carolina is a top 25 team in the FCS there's no ranking next to their name but they're a team they're a top 25 team in the FCS they're very good and we got this right I picked this game against the spread and I told you Western Carolina was going to stay within a certain amount of points of NC State I believed it NC State still put up 38 points though guys 38 points is a is a respectable number the bigger issue here is 21 of them came in the fourth quarter so what were you doing for three quarters were you guys just getting to know each other trying to figure it out the reality is they still don't have another receiving threat outside of concepion waters is a decent running back out of Duke but I I don't know where he's at don't know if he's the bellal you're looking for and McCall is actually really good and when I went back and watched this tape Grayson McCall is the three-time Sun Belt player of the year he is very good he just he's not some little guy that you're cheering for homie 63 and makes smart decisions with the football I'm telling you they got to figure to they got to figure it out they got to get it together they played Tennessee this week I'll talk about it Wake Forest looked like absolute ass to me dog [ __ ] Wake Forest couldn't stop a team that only runs the ball North Carolina entt finished 120th 130th ranked 120th ranked in P in passing last year the year before 2023 we know they can only run yes they have Kenji Christian he is a a stud running back transferred in from Virginia Tech but this is a team that can only run the ball you don't cover the spread or you don't cover the under I'm sorry you couldn't you couldn't shut these guys out it's a HBCU bro you're Wake Forest you got a daunting front seven and you can't stop him the strength of Wake Forest is their front seven and they couldn't stop the run that that's concerning on the flip side Hank bokm didn't start this game he better I don't want to hear about any split in time Hank BM went out there and did exactly what he does and Hank bokm shout out to Evan Kramer Hank bokm in these three touchdowns further solidifies that Sunny kby needs to be fired I'm talking about the lawtech head coach you had Hank BM bro you had Hank BM and you couldn't do [ __ ] with him he's out here willing and Dylan you know it's against a terrible team it is what it is North Carolina Minnesota uh predicting this game I told you guys North Carolina was going to win this game just because they have more Talent on their roster they're better and it took a Miss fi goal at at at the conclusion of the game I don't care I want to tell you guys Omar on Hampton looks so good and I want to credit a coaching staff for understanding that the only way they're going to win this game is 30 carries if you guys have a chance to bet on Omar and Hampton every week in a prop bet please do it that dude is going to go for 30 car they have no other option they're not using their receivers that are actually pretty decent we got a quarterback that broke his knees or something broke his legs something your knees aren't supposed to touch bro that dude was out there knee knocking like a like a Bambi like a baby deer Max Johnson's gone brosmer looked like he has growing paints bro Max brosmer one of the leading nation's leading passer out of the FCS complete stud show up and looked like he wasn't ready for the big time there's a guy named Elijah huzzy on the other side of the field he's putting in work putting in work shout out to North Carolina a dominant defense people need to REM remember this the North Carolina players are very good like talent wise they're very good so while you can't name any of them and there's nobody on a top 10 list anywhere the standard for who they are is amazing and I want to talk about so I'm going to pull up the box score real quick cuz a young man got three sacks in the game and when you go back and watch the tape you're going to be like man he's amazing right ritzy here now ritzy I the reason I don't think he's amazing is I've actually watched him play for three or four years now and I've never assessed him to be great but this cam this guy right here Rucker Rucker is going to dominate games and he's a huge reason why there's three sacks on the other side of the of the field like Rucker is the problem here this is the best player on this defense Cayman Rucker Elijah huy really but the the two of these guys but Rucker is the disruptor Rucker is a problem and it's something you just got to you got to believe in guys that dude's a beast seriously and shout out to Jack Henderson a white a white safety who hits like a ton of bricks I like him a lot but yeah the game was pretty simple North Carolina needs to find another receiver they believe in outside of JJ Jones only throwing to JJ Jones doesn't work for me Omari and Hampton catching your screens for nothing doesn't work for me you gotta start incorporating Nate mccolm bubble screens slip screens Slants something give me something Nate McCollum is that guy I've watched him do it before when he was at Georgia Tech you got to believe in Nate McCollum and they didn't get it done so go back to the drawing board start scoring more but hey a win's a win then we get to Friday we were on on to cover this spread by the way the spread was 23 A2 I said guys I'm going to go with Elon Elon looks like a a great team great coach team coach and staff's been together for six years I love continuity I love continuity okay so I believed in Elon and then the game started and I went oh my God we're gonna miss Elon could not pth protect to save their lives Duke lost a number of Defenders to the transfer portal a number of defensive linemen to the transfer portal it didn't matter their players were so much better than Elon it was it was scary and then we back door a field goal at the end of the game and we we actually won this is we covered the spread Elon did it 23 and a half we got that back door at the last second it was amazing and shout out to Baker I want you guys to know something if you're an FCS football fan this kid Baker is nice as hell little little dude little scatback dude nice as Hell by the way Jordan Moore my hitting Jem on Duke this offseason I talked about him a former dual threat quarterback who turned into a wide receiver the last two years complete stud Murphy's got nice touch on his passes they're going to be a they're going to be a problem scoring over the top they have skill players they do we'll see what happens they didn't get all their drives done there's some Growing Pains terrible coaching staff I know but this this is real Malik Murphy Jordan Moore that's a real connection TCU Stanford I told you guys I have this chart and remember in the preseason if you go back to the live Tab and you watch the show like I told you guys if you watch the show you see me and I went over these Talent charts I went over these Talent charts and I told you how good certain teams were and I saw all the MVPs talking about Stanford and they were going to take Stanford over TCU Stanford is the 58th best team in the country according to me and according to my talent assessment 58 if you go to TCU I have TCU at 39 that tells me right then and there I don't care what you're talking about I'm taking TCU 39 to 58 that's a huge number there's a lot of teams in between there and maybe you guys are like well Rico what's this Talent evaluation crap like what is this chart well let me tell you the talent EV evaluation chart if I can show you and I will give me a second here I'm going to drop it in front of you guys for week one tal evaluation chart let me see if I can pull it in I don't want to give away too much there it is there's the talent evaluation chart I'm going to drop it in the screen here in a second bear with me here it is here's me picking games based on the chart and there's TCU by the way the talent evaluation chart went 10 and four this weekend 10 and four 71% accurate on games I can tell you who's going to win the game I don't care what you think I'm just going to tell you what the chart is and TCU got it done now it was a sloppy game that's unfortunate for them but I just knew it was going to happen Hoover looked great Hoover looked great Stanford's out here running their quarterback too much shout out to Ashton Daniels he is athletic he does run around and the reason he's running around is his wide receivers get no separation they're not open so he's got to extend the play and run that's why a lot of quarterbacks end up running but at the same same time 17 carries those are some quarterback design runs and I don't like it be the uh LSU transfer if I remember correctly used to be a tight end now he's a wide receiver look at him dominating shout out to TCU I told you guys in the offseason when I assessed TCU they look like they're going to have a bounceback year I know they had a terrible year last year but they fixed their offensive line in the transfer portal they got real offensive line not castoffs from scrub ass teams they found real help in the offens line and in the transfer portal for their offensive line they already had all the other pieces speaking of having all the other pieces Georgia Georgia absolutely demolishes Clemson I don't think it's that big of a deal a lot of people are saying it's a big deal uh for me Clemson just has a terrible quarterback let me let me rephrase this they have a great defensive line Clemson does great talented players there's going to be a lot of guys on this defense in General that go to the NFL there aren't a lot of NFL guys on their offense I want to equate this to an NFL GM who drafts the wrong quarterback in the first round like you do the first round draft you pick the wrong guy and you're left to pick up the pieces and and you and you get fired so everybody is attacking DB o Sweeney he doesn't know how to adapt he's terrible he didn't do this right this right no look man dbo lost some amazing position coaches and coordinators and he's hired the wrong people that's number one number two this five-star quarterback is absolutely gross grow in the worst way can't do anything right never sets his feet before a throw so it's all arm instead of Le and if you ever look at quarterbacks who don't set their feet the Anthony Richardson of the world the Gavin whims of the world these are the worst quarterbacks highly inaccurate just naturally of Target going to lead to interceptions all over the place Kate kumnick is just a panic attack in a hurry even if the pocket's clean and it's not going to be very clean against a team like Georgia on the flip side I'm gonna talk about Georgia on Thursday well shout out to Nate Frasier shout out to me I've been talking about Nate Frasier for over a year now I posted my first video on Nate Frasier last August when he was in high school and I said that there's no way that guy's a fourar player who gave him four stars fire that dude too but shout out to Clemson they'll be okay I think Georgia can do this to a lot of teams I do Miami I'm not surprised Miami is my number one team in the ACC I love everything they're doing shout out to cam Ward shout out to everybody Restrepo Sam Brown for showing up the defense I love everything Miami is doing ain't mad at them and that's another thing Florida fans need to calm down everybody out there in the SEC world I'm going to talk about it on Thursday bro you're a four- win team and you're playing one of the best teams in America this is what it's supposed to look like this type of score would happen if Colorado played the elite teams of the world that's that's the only problem Florida's playing the elite teams and getting stomped Billy Napier your days are numbered speaking of days are numbered Virginia Tech you return everybody from a seven- win season we believe in you pick you make you a lock and I want to I want to be clear on something I don't want to go into this long tangent about how I pick my locks and stuff but you got to avoid the upsets there's only so many upsets every week especially early on in the season and what I got to do is predict them which I did shout out to the money line predictions right I I predicted upsets we got five out of we went five and three on the upsets but I got to avoid being a victim of them and this one hurts this one hurts immensely Kiren drones goes out there throws for 300 yards I don't care that's going to happen Vanderbilt's going to give up yards you can't stop Diego Pavia bro listen if you're an MVP on this channel and you've been watching me for the last two years now you know I love Diego Pavia he made us so much money last year at New Mexico State the rest of the world never believed in this little dude I believe in him wholeheartedly I know his whole story we be we bet on Diego Pavia almost every single week you can go back look at the chart look at all the videos we always believe in Diego Pavia but when he transfers to Vanderbilt with his offensive coordinator with all his other coaches with everybody I I just thought to myself okay well that's nice I watched him dominate Auburn last last year but it's a Feelgood story but there's no way this is going to happen to Virginia Tech Virginia Tech for me in my assessment is the second best talented team in the ACC what did I just say yes the second best talented team in the ACC the offensive line is senior ladin and amazing receivers are Ali Jennings and Jaylen Lane both guys who were leading receivers at their previous schools they transferred in with dcoin Felton they all transferred in they were the leading receivers at Middle Tennessee State and ODU Kiren drones is a dual threat Monster Ball Tutton an FCS All American two years ago 1400 yard rusher we know he's explosive defensively you got a guy who can get a sack every day of the week you got pebles coming in from the transfer portal you're just [Music] loaded and you can't stop Vanderbilt it's it's a damn shame it's uh they got to get off the mat we won't be betting on them anytime soon and shout out to Vanderbilt man getting the most out of your juice I want to make something very clear if you go to my Twitter let me let me do this and we go in here Twitter and you go to my homepage my profile right here Futures bet video Vanderbilt two and a half wins was the over under I made this video as early as possible I made this video I don't even remember when I made it let let me hit play here let me see when I made this video made this video 13 February and I screamed to all the MVPs getting ready to do all these um win totals over unders I already did Boston College and I told you guys I'm going to do a new team every 3 days but as I was going through them there's one in here that I think we need to urgently bet on like right now before they move the line um and the answer is Vanderbilt Vanderbilt is currently over under is two and a half wins they're going to get three wins at a minimum uh they have Diego Pavia at quarterback they got a gameer they got a guy who can beat Auburn okay they got players Vanderbilt has really utilized the transfer portal just fine just trust me they're going to win three games go put 10 units on this let me explain something to you guys they're going to beat all corn State allcorn state's terrible they're going to be at Georgia state Georgia State just lost Darren Granger just lost Marcus Carroll Georgia state is not going to be competitive with them in this game they're going to get these two wins early in September I have them losing Virginia Tech I have them losing to M Missouri but they play Ball State for their third win that's Ball State in the Mac who's absolutely atrocious one of the worst teams in the FBS all corn State and then Georgia State and let's just say they lose to Georgia State on the road which I don't see happening all they got to do is win one game in the SEC just one give me one but you don't even need one it's two and a half and there's three games on the schedule Ball State Georgia State and alorn they can definitely win they got a shot to beat Virginia Tech they got a shot they got athletes they got players guys it's Vanderbilt it's the SEC they have recruiting budgets they're still a top 50 class they got great players in the transport Diego Pavia alone can go out and beat beat some teams he's bad as [ __ ] man 900 yard rusher like that's real but this right here one two three I can't scream it enough get to your Sportsbook go bet on the Futures before they move this thing to three and a half wins bet the over and I'm telling you sit back and watch them beat out of conference opponents I would do 10 units this where we at I said they can beat Virginia Tech bet 10 units and I know MVPs bet 10 units on this I know MVPs did and we're going to be rich we did it we're going to win and that's why you need to be an MVP in the offseason that was in February guys I'm screaming bet 10 units on Vandy and you know what the line did move they moved it to minus 200 they left it at three and a half or two and a half wins but they made it a minus 200 instead of Theus 115 we got in on if you're not a gambler you don't know what I'm talking about let me tell you what I did you can't gamble in my state but Kim is a resident of Virginia and I sent Kim on a seven-hour drive to go make some bets some bets I really believed in you better ask somebody congratulations Louisville Austin P I told the MVPs we're taking Louisville to cover the spread it's pretty simple and it's not about how good Louisville is it's about how terrible Austin P is Austin P loses their head coach Scotty Walden to UTEP he's the new head coach at UTEP and all the good players from Austin P hit the transfer portal and went to UTP with him so there's nothing left at Austin P and I believe Louisville was going to go out there and cover the spread I think the spread was only 36 points which was insane that was covered by halftime we made a ton of money on that congratulations MVPs I was right pit and Ken state I told you kin State's terrible Pit's not good but kin State's worse kin State's one of the worst teams in America got them at about 132nd ranked out of 134 teams we knew this was happening how hey Desmond Reed Desmond Reed bro Desmond Reed hey I've been talking about Desmond Reed all off season I'm not joking here it is here's a video of Desmond Reed back in June 29th I told you my Hidden Gem for pit is little Desmond Reed here Beast transfer from Western Carolina FCS transfer fast as hell Florida kid little guy just a little booger a little booger you can't catch and he went out there and did his thing 78 yard punt return for a touchdown not surprised 148 145 yards rushing 78 return and then Eli Holstein I made videos on Eli Holstein on Tik Tok two years ago when I told you who I thought was the best quarterback on the Alabama bench remember Alabama was trying to figure out who's going to be their starting quarterback and I was like guys I don't give a [ __ ] about Ty Simpson I don't care about this other guy you know who I care about that dude I care about Eli holin I think he's got a future and then a year later he's transferred and he's the starting quarterback at pit congratulations to him shout out to him Johnson out here getting 100 yards found a weapon found a weapon I didn't anticipate how about that we'll see what happens Syracuse Ohio Syracuse fans are probably really happy because they scored 38 points and they have a real quarterback last year they had no quarterback at the end of the season they were shider was hurt they were they were letting anybody play anybody play quarterback they brought in their tight end converted quarterback from Michigan but they were like yo you play quarterback no L Quinn Allen can you throw they were at practice just [ __ ] you know how when people go to practice they're like who can kick anybody out here can kick or punt you ever seen that before I've seen that okay I was a football coach once uh but nonetheless you're out here trying to figure out who's good Kyle McCord is good Kyle McCord can can lace it bro he can spin it he's doing great things he hit Gatson for a touchdown congratulations the reality is though there is no way you give up 200 yards rushing to a Northwestern transfer Anthony Tyrus is a Northwestern transfer that's not that good and he rush for 200 yards on your busted ass on only 16 carries dude Syracuse if you can't stop the run you're in for a very long season you're going to have to out shoot out everybody Ohio for me is one of the least talented teams in the Mac this year Ohio lost everybody I love Tim Albin as a coach think he's great I'm going to talk about them tomorrow big 10 in the Macer tomorrow but for me Syracuse got to feel good about scoring and throwing touchdowns and all this stuff but giving up that many rushing yards is very ugly very ugly speaking of ugly Cal didn't cover the spread that's ugly well I knew they wouldn't how about that remember when you guys ask see sometimes people some guy some guy said Rico all you do is go chalk no I don't I don't always go chalk you'll hear me and I'll tell you hey C's a 20o favorite I don't like that no I respect UC Davis UC Davis has good players I know you see Davis roster no I don't like that 20 points I think they're going to play keeper vanilla because they got a big game coming up next week against Auburn so they're going to keep it vanilla against an FCS team I don't like it that's me telling you I like the underdog you got to get be able to get there bro you got to be able to infer it if you don't see a favorite on the chart means I like the underdog essentially just letting you know if you don't see the underdog on the chart it means I means I don't like the game at all so careful nonetheless Cal really really concerning performance they need to come out and hit on all cylinders I believe they're on the verge of trying to find a new coach after this season we'll see Virginia 34 points against Richmond I think they called off the dogs in the second half col Andrea gets the start again remember this is a kid who started last year and he's starting again and let me tell you man Kobe pace is nice Kobe Pace as the starting running back is a transfer from Clemson not bad I love what he's doing and then Fields just showed up carries on remember they had an amazing singular receiver last year and they're about to do it again with Fields Fields is going to get all every all the Reps they can I like Virginia is sneaky good in in a in a weird way remember last year I had to make that declaration like yo vinga is better than you guys think that's where I'm at Georgia Tech kind of comes back down to earth not blowing anything the do off I don't think Georgia Tech's exceptionally great yes they beat Florida state they're not too great but they got the win and that's what matters and they covered the spread like I thought they would shout out to Haynes Rutherford King like they're doing it it's cool and Georgia state's going to in a rebuilding year not a big deal there's SMU going ham against Houston Christian congratulations you see it you get excited I don't I don't like it different leading passer every week I don't like yes they came out hidden all cylinders 42 points at a half bro it's Houston Christian whatever we'll see what's up all right let's talk about the schedule this week first off there's a game tonight obviously I'm sorry I'm not talking about it because I've already talked about it for the MVPs if you want to know what I think about the Florida state boy B auson college game tonight become an MVP go watch the video I posted it earlier today on the patreon you'll know who's the winner you'll know what prop bets to make everything prize picks I do everything go watch the video it's 25 minutes long you can watch it at 2.0 speed that's the cheat code game starts in about an hour and a half okay we got to end this show at 7:30 to make sure we start the live stream on time so hopefully we don't go too long nonetheless we have a game on Friday we have two games BYU and SMU weekday games are are MVP level content I will not talk about so I will not talk about these two games at all okay Georgia Tech Syracuse give me a second here I apologize I need to double check the chart for week two and make sure these games aren't on it if they're on the chart I won't be talking about them Georgia Tech Syracuse is on the chart won't address it Pittsburgh Cincinnati I will address they look like evenly matched teams I really like their offenses but defensively these are not very good teams Pittsburgh gave up a certain amount of points in their game and Cincinnati allow tals to score like 20 points but Cincinnati I love sorby I think this game is a shootout I think these teams come out here and put up some serious points you see the over under 59 a half I think you should be leaning towards the over it's not on my chart but I would be leaning towards the over okay um if you want to know who's winning the game that's on my chart but the over feels real I think these teams are going to score pretty pretty good amount next game is California and Auburn I'm trying to learn about these games this week or these teams I don't believe Auburn the way a lot of people do I just don't I I don't and I understand that it's the SEC and you think they're better teams but it took a miracle for C to lose to Mississippi State last year an absolute miracle if I remember correctly this time around we'll see what Auburn does obviously Cal has to travel all the way to Auburn Cal better get used to traveling because they're in the ACC and their way over there and they're over here do do your thing but two touchdowns feels right for Auburn to win by I wouldn't bet on it I would watch it and learn about both teams Duane playing Boston College it's a short week for them obviously playing Florida State tonight and then playing Duane on Saturday they don't need much time and preparation to beat Duane they they just suck okay Jacksonville State is not who you think they are I won't be talking about that game it's an MVP level lock Charlotte North Carolina it's not even on the chart but giving North Carolina only 22 points against Charlotte feels wild to me Charlotte played decent against JMU but they still lost by 23 points so giving a JMU JMU beats them by 23 you think North Carolina's not going to beat him by 22 that might be added to the chart by the end of the week it just feels silly I don't see how Charlotte Charlotte's defense looked improved by the way but they they looked mean fast but my god did they look terrible on offense lost no identity Hassan Adams was fine at running back but the rest of it was uh Virginia Tech they better bounce back and beat Marshall that's all there is to it they better beat Marshall figure it out they're at home they're favorites by 20 points they should theoretically if I hadn't seen them in week one I would have said Virginia Tech's winning this game by 30 points good luck with that Miami playing Florida A&M no no issue there Stanford should blow out calply I just watched calply give up 70 points to Washington State it should be very similar uh shout out to Stanford they they're going to score a bunch of points against calply wake Force Virginia it's on the chart I won't talk about it Tennessee NC State it's on the chart but uh it's not on the chart is it I took it off but I'll talk about it I according to my talent metric which is at 71% accuracy right now NC State's a better team but they're right next to each other and this is weird I didn't know they were even playing each other when I made the talent chart uh assessment if you will but when I did it if you look here NC states in the ACC I have them ranked 21st in the country NC stage 21st in the country for me talent wise and in the SEC I have Tennessee 22 they're back to back it's one spot there is room for margin for error C&M right so what it really comes down to is like people look at a team like this and they do they base it off these rankings these rankings will pre like pre-determine how you feel about teams they they they condition you they precondition you to think certain teams are are better than others and they're not did you watch LSU and USC last night did you see the rankings next to their names they're completely off they're not right there's just no way in hell like that's that's how I feel about it man so it is what it is NC State played terrible in week one they got to get it together but they're at home Tennessee is going to show up with a bunch of weapons I know a lot of people believe in Nico I hope I hope they play good I'm going to tell you guys this if Tennessee loses this game their season's over yeah their season's over if they lose this game they're going to have three to four losses at that point I have Tennessee only winning seven or eight games this year so go figure appstate at Clemson uh the spread 17 I understand Clemson's supposed to win this game and and win by 17 watching Clemson's offense I don't know how they how they get ahead by 17 I just don't man they don't look that good and the offense is so problematic that it leaves you in bad field position it gives the other team more offensive possessions AB State's one of the very best group of five teams in America like very best they have a returning senior quarterback they have an amazing running back in Kanye they have all the receivers returned from last year and a really good coach AB State man that number feels weird Clems in I know they should be blowing them out I heard you I hear you I hear you all right before I get into Conference USA go back to the chat thank you guys for being here I appreciate it if you're watching on Tik Tok move over to YouTube ask your questions I will interact with you uh we we'll see what's up back to the chat let me scroll see what happens we got some sharps in here today shout out to you DS people just need to listen to what he tells you tells us and you make money Rico really knows what he's talking about thank you so much Gary Clark take good notes bro corn Saturday 990,000 tell Colorado don't bring those stupid watches shout out to you Larry Trey Wiki I we'll definitely watch the game but I don't really care either way this is what NS New Mexico state has I think even though their quarterback room is lacking I don't know what that means and we're not talking I'm not there I'm not there 49er just got shot over his wife watch times are good PE to people watches nowadays I've never owned a watch in my life just so you guys are clear I might have owned a Fossil watch back in the day a fossil but I would never spend money on peripherals like I don't own I've never owned a pair of sunglasses no chain no jewelry nothing I don't I don't I just don't believe in it I'd rather have money in the bank and I got a lot more money than than these damn people who buying watches hey Rico just became a member shout out to you Jay I appreciate you man thank you so much for supporting the channel take on Florida State Boston College become an MVP it's on the Discord server I'm sorry on the patreon you won't regret it Sensei Rico you think Club neck is the quarterback at the end of the season I mean how bad does he have to suck before they bench him bro how bad does he have to suck it's obvious when when the coaches don't go to the bench it's a number of things they know right away they don't want their quarterback to lose confidence they go to they they see it at practice they know they have no better option they have no better option in the locker room on the bench on the depth chart so you got to grow with it he's been a multi year starter he knows the offense theoretically he just can't perform man he just doesn't get it done and I want to be clear a lot of quarterbacks would look absolute dog [ __ ] against that Georgia team let's be let's I'm not making excuses for Club Nick I'm just keeping it real that Georgia defense collaps his pockets there's no open receivers nobody's getting separation so do name Malachi Starks out here getting incredible interceptions it's a problem bro it's a problem that kid will never never be in the NFL Club neck is not an NFL quarterback and he's playing against people who will be playing on Sundays it's the reality of the situation reminds me of what happened to the Eagles last season they lost both coordinators and fell apart yeah a lot of coaches lose their coordinators and fall apart that's what made Nick Sabin so amazing is Nick sabin's coordinators and coaches would get hired elsewhere and he would just replace them and teach the new coaches and developing coaches is what makes you a goat is what makes you great if you can develop your coaches it's one thing to develop the players I personally think developing players at the Collegiate level is like 90% on the player like we always give coaches so much credit for developing the players the reality is those players got to want it those players got to be great let me tell you guys something and I know you guys don't think it correlates but it does I'm a senior leader in the military I train and Lead men between the ages of 17 and 25 for the most part I'm I'm a retired first sergeant retired just last year December it's been less than a year and what I'm telling you is my best soldiers my very best soldiers were self-driven they got up early they went and did a 1-hour ruck march before PT before physical training they studied and got College degre After Hours the self-driven soldiers were absolutely amazing it's really easy to lead them when I won soldier of the year in 2004 got every Trophy and sword in the world when I was named soldier of the year I studied every night till 900 p.m. and then I went out there and performed and I was in the best shape of my life and I could shoot and I could move and communicate better than anybody my leadership got credit for being the mentor the coach and mentor of the soldier of the year so they get credit for it but the reality is is I'm not hard to lead bro I'm a genius and I'm applying myself so when I look at college players who are great so many people want to point to the coach and say that coach made them great I think those players are lifting weights watching film pushing themselves to the max eating right working year round to be great and it ain't hard to lead him look man I look at Travis Hunter and I go man that guy would have been great at any school I give no coach any credit for Travis hunter that dude would have been great anywhere because he's got the drive because he's professional because every time I see him he's grinding on something no Diddy so when I look at some of these players who don't pan out I don't blame the coach I blame the player where you have the good coaches versus the great coaches is the great coaches develop their coaches the great coaches mentor and mold their coaches and when you go look at Nick sabin's coaching tree it's amazing I would say dbos Sweeney is struggling with developing his coaching staff once he got those he inherited some of those great positional coaches and coordinators and they Departed the back fi has not been developed the same and one coach that's doing well is Kirby Kirby Smart Kirby Smart's doing well at developing his coaches and some of them move on to bigger and better things and he's finding backfields and he's developing his Co over and over and over when you lose your coordinators you got to find new ones and and it's up to the head coach to keep that ball turning and and remember coaches either get hired or they get fired 99% of coaches get hired to a new position or stick around long enough become substandard and get fired very very few dictate the end of their careers shout out to Joe PW I'm just saying so Kate Club Nick has not developed into a very good quarterback but I don't think there's anybody else there I really don't shout out to uh The Eagles I don't know anything about the NFL I don't watch the NFL Virginia Tech's coaching looked absolutely horrible in that game drones gets hurt doesn't start halftime and they put him in for a quarterback run up the middle it's embarrassing so let's let's be clear it wasn't just halftime it was towards the end of the game and Kiron Jones gets called in he comes in the game on third down to run the ball and you say it's it's embarrassing they wanted to give their leader a chance to lead the team and he tried to go probably told coaches he could go went out there and he wasn't 100% that's that's not terrible coaching that's believing in your player and your player didn't get it done then he pulled himself out of the game then they put in Colin Schley Colin shle former starting quarterback at Ken State transferred to UCLA sat the bench there and he's at your school and he should be on the bench for your school as well shouldn't be a starter it's it's one of those things where people will point out the co what could the coach do coach can't make you play any better and if the co if the young man says yeah I'm good to go I'll go in the game it's not like Co coach pulled him by his ear and said get back in the game what do you guys Envision this [ __ ] is going down it's not like that the kid said you know the player theoretically said I can do this and then he got out there and he couldn't doesn't matter the issue for Virginia Tech was not their quarterback play or the draw that didn't get a first down the issue was them for them is 34 points that were scored it was defensively assignment football not stopping Diego Pavia on options play action it's just crazy back to the chat apologize Texas 42 Michigan 14 congratulations Vandy got New Mexico's offensive coordinator running back Eli starers Jerry kill as an adviser Jerry Hill is more than an adviser he's an on the field coach and New Mexico decided to hire Tony instead of Nate drilling who then became the head coach of Utah State yeah I mean we know the whole story Anthony I I talk about we don't talk about those teams unless it's on their episode for the most part but I'm here I'm with you I get it I've talked about it at length in the offseason thank you for being here uh pit wide receiver Kenny Johnson gonna have a breakout

appreciate you for supporting the channel and I take a lot of pride in being authentic I take a lot of pride in the hard work that I do that's why I'm always on live I know a lot of people watch me on Tik Tok and and they don't quite understand why I don't interact with them but what I'm really showing them is that I go live stream 15 hours a day for my data and for my information it's not a magic trick it's hard work it's out there doing it are you higher ranked than a master sergeant Joseph villon msgt Ms mstg uh in the Army I was a master sergeant the Army Air Force Master Sergeant is E7 Army Master Sergeant is E8 among all the master sergeants they pick one to be the first sergeant I was a first sergeant for three years so it's still you're still an E8 but yeah I I I don't know what to tell you bro I was a master sergeant for five years Joseph is such a clown Michigan might lose but it ain't gonna be a blowout okay Louisville is the top two team in the ACC this year and we lead the ACC in most stats yeah you I would too if I was playing Austin P don't ever look at stats like that that's that's absurdity all right let's go to uh let's go to see what Happening Here in Conference USA Conference USA first game of the season Jacksonville State goes out there lays an egg gets blown out by Coastal Carolina if you didn't know I picked this game and I told you Coastal Carolina was going to win money line I believed in them wholeheartedly I didn't think the game would be close my talent of valuation told me this not anything from Vegas not any any of the lines none of that stuff we were on Coastal Carolina in this game and they made it happen Jacksonville State is just missing all their best players to the transfer portal it's not going to be the same team as last year Alabama blows out Western Kentucky first and foremost shout out to Alabama hitting on all cylinders looking the part and Western Kentucky sucks Western Kentucky they tell me they're the second best team in Conference USA I don't believe that I don't the talent is there Tyson Hon's a great coach but I think Finley and the lost to Malachi Corley is going to be an immense issue they have no running game whatsoever their running back is not explosive not impressive we even bet his under yards by the way and we hit on that um but Western ky's in for a long season and Alabama's looking great Alabama looks like Alabama FIU Indiana I believe in fiu's defense I said let's take FIU to cover the spread they were this close to covering the spread they were there and then they gave up a long touchdown run with four seconds left in the game something crazy it was less than a minute and they gave up a touchdown run 51 yards they just couldn't catch Elijah green and it was a back door cover we we lost it was a bad beat really bad beat shout out to FIU I don't know how they end up scoring but their defense is competitive their defense is good and that's important in in a conference where there there isn't very good there isn't a whole lot of great offensive players I picked UTEP to cover this spread they obviously didn't Nebraska came out and beat the brakes off of them I love UTEP they're just not ready they're just not quite there they they need to add more they're not ready they were competitive for about a quarter but once you wear them down and the depth started having to come in remember college football when you go and look at this box score and and you can watch tape but I'll do this for for Simplicity for you do you guys see how many players caught a pass on offense for Nebraska how many players got a rushing y carry 47 carries look how many different players played in this game right but when you go to defense and you start seeing this many players made tackles that's a lot more than 11 do you guys understand what I'm saying a lot more than 11 players make tackles so if you're playing your top 11 guys but then you have all these other guys get in the game for tackles that's why college football is really important people need to understand the depth there are rotating everybody rotates in college football the only people who don't rotate are offensive lineman and the quarterback hopefully but defensively defensive lineman linebackers defensive backs everybody rotates so the two deep really matters they got worn the hell out they got worn down and Nebraska's deep Nebraska has pieces that they can pull out and do their thing they don't have that depth right now the fact that West Morland got shut out didn't didn't look dominant at all on tape I was not impressed with it it's unfortunate because he is the best player he's the best pass rusher in Conference USA and it didn't come it didn't show up there was a lot of guys on defense that were transfers and they just didn't show up and and make it look good you have a FCS all American running back only getting three yards a carry I'm very impressed with what Nebraska did I really am good luck we're going to learn about more more about them as the season goes obviously this episode is about UTEP I'm just telling you utep's not quite ready I still believe in them I think they'll have a a better year than people think but it's a it's a daunting task to beat to play against Nebraska in the opening week UTSA used to be in Conference USA obviously they moved over to the American um playe can K State told you we had to learn about Kenesaw state so what did I learn I learned Kennesaw State's competitive I learned they're not going to quit and they're going to be there they covered this spread I still can't bet on any way on on this game in either way they told me there was going to be a different quarterback starting and MC Macau kind of separated himself from everybody else the one thing I was a little disappointed with was the lack of a running identity from UTSA UTSA has great running backs I probably shouldn't have done that I didn't mean to do that but they have great running backs Robert Henry cavian Barnes Roco Griffin these three guys are absolute studs and for me cavan Barnes is one of the best running backs in the group of five and they just not not really riding anybody no Workhorse maybe they were going vanilla for the game keeping it you know mild mannered or whatnot but UTSA needs to show me more speaking of needing to show me more I'm telling you guys Liberty isn't like that for me when I evaluated Liberty on tape all summer long I look at Liberty and I'm not impressed they don't look very good I know they're going to win a lot of games they play in Conference USA I know that but Campbell has a new coaching staff they came in last year and Campbell looked great I love the way Campbell put in an effort I like the effort they gave it's really good I was really encouraged by it I'm telling you that right now this kid Brown good luck covering him but they they still got it done they're still dominant it's just you play in Scrubs if they play out of conference I don't like it Middle Tennessee speaking of playing scrubs playing Tennessee Tech Tennessee Tech puts out some effort in the fourth quarter keeps it close or at least makes it look closer than normal remember Frank peasant here he he scores a touchdown to give them a lead in the final seconds it's nuts that's insane they need a touchdown to finish this and peasant doesn't even want to be there he's slow not good hit the transfer portal nobody picked them up went back to school I don't like where Middle Tennessee looks I don't like the way they look man and I know they got Nick V at quarterback I know they have a senior quarterback a lot of people believe in these dudes I don't like him like that I don't like Middle Tennessee and I know a lot of people are high on them speaking of high on somebody and getting it wrong I was high on Rice I was high on rice and my god did they suck and they got blown out and it's unfortunate because a lot of MVPs bet on this but this was a this this is not a game they should have been betting on they need to learn how to read the chart this was a talent evaluation not a a spread not not a lock not a lean and they still bet on it it was crazy um MVPs need to slow the hell down and read the chart carefully nonetheless Sam Houston still continues that path of the team we can't really bet on I want to remind you guys Sam Houston last year was supposed to be relevant and good and they weren't they were Absolut dog [ __ ] and a lot of it had to do with the previous year they red shirted all their starters to save a year of Eligibility and then here we are were two years away from that experiment and now they looked apart and that kind of boggles my mind to see them do this to Rice I evaluated Rice's defense to be very good I evaluated Rice's offense to be very good so I think Sam Houston is the second best team in Conference USA after week one I do I think Liberty and then it's Sam Houston that sounds crazy but that's how I feel I went back and watched the tape and I'm like man they might have something here this Hunter Wilson this Hunter Watson dude is a gamer he's he's fun to watch it's remarkable and I didn't know he'd get the start then we're looking at latte fire Sunny kby being competitive with nickoll state is Crazy Fire Sunny kbi I'm letting you know that right now shout out to latch New Mexico State it's crazy but Southeast Missouri State is actually pretty good Simo they won their first game of the season against North Alabama and they they won by like a wide margin big blowout so for them to come out here and actually have the lead against New Mexico State pretty impressive go out there and play but obviously mwan starts taking over the game gets it done I don't like Sanchez as a coach Tony Sanchez I don't like and I shouldn't say I don't know him personally I just don't think it was the best choice and I think New Mexico state's in for a long season getting in a shootout like this in your first game against an FCS opponent should not be happening you needed 13 points in the fourth quarter to come back you're trailing you're losing going into the fourth it was wild so that's that let me go over here games this week in Conference USA Jacksonville State's playing Louisville I can't really talk about it it's on the chart Middle Tennessee playing Old Miss it's not on the chart but I know everybody staring at that minus 41 and I don't blame you oh miss uh somebody said it on the Discord who was it was it Salon SWAT he said hey I just rewatched Old Miss versus Ferman or whoever they play hell they played week one we were on Old Miss I laughed I said whoa they only gave him 40 points against an FCS opponent they're going to score a lot they scored 70 and it looks like Lan K just running up the score and trying to get Jackson Dart the Heisman and I don't blame him Jackson dart's probably a front runner for the Heisman Miss has an opportunity to be great this year and quarterbacks on great teams win the Heisman that's a fact so old Miss probably going to blow out Middle Tennessee bad I'm just letting you know Central Michigan put up a ton of points week one against Central Connecticut and and they're playing FIU and I love fiu's defense but I don't know if FIU can stop a team that just put up 55 points we're going to find out we need to learn something about this at the same time fiu's offense gross gross Jenkins sucks keontay Jenkins not it two running backs returning from last year are pretty solid but not good enough and it feels like FIU is really really missing a star wide receiver in Chris Mitchell who transferred to Notre Dame but at the end of the day fiu's got great defense that doesn't score points all that often unless you're Iowa right Sam Houston against UCF UCF should win this game it's a it's a big spread it's 21 points they should win the game let's learn let's learn shout out to Sam Houston go play hard bro Western Kentucky eastern Kentucky directional Kies this is your chance Western Kentucky this is what Tyson hton does he goes out there and wins this game and puts up an insane amount of points all this stuff I just watched Mississippi State carve up Eastern Kentucky it should happen again but if it doesn't man we got some problems Louisiana's got a daunting defense I watch it on tape it's better than the stats than than what the stats indicate like you can watch a box score and not know how good the defensive players are Louisiana's got really good defensive players like talent wise I really like Louisiana's defense they're playing kesas State they should win that game no problem UTP better beat Southern Utah better beat Southern Utah I got you UTP shout out to you and then Liberty's going to go spank the breaks off of New Mexico State they beat New Mexico State last year when they had a 10- win team and really beat him up pretty bad even with Diego Pavia they're going to win this one big I see the 22 point spread that sounds crazy I probably want to put that on the chart like that's that's nuts Liberty should have a bigger spread New Mexico state's going to struggle okay so that's that I'm going to go to the chat one last time and then I'm going to take a break before we have the live stream tonight remember we're doing Florida State Boston College live streaming here on YouTube let me go to the chat please if you have any questions comments concerns put it in the chat Tik Tok if you're watching move over to YouTube put it in the chat that's what we do that's who I respond to that's who I interact with shout out to you guys for being here oh my goodness I see a lot of messages from vilon villon Joseph villon if you guys don't know he's a troll he is an absolute Troll and a Texas Homer who doesn't know anything about football so shout out to him he's a clown yes he is Will Michigan cross the 50 yard line at least twice there we go Master first I don't know what that means Joseph I got my mortgage on them doing it at least three times whoa don't don't do that your mortgage matters why don't you do NFL that boy Gotti first and foremost I don't like NFL fans I don't like I don't like anyone who pretends to know college football and the NFL listen to me I study 134 teams at the FBS level and I know every player in the two deep on every single team in America you can't do that and study the NFL so anyone who's capping and providing spreads and picks for NFL games when did you study the NFL rosters and if you did that then I don't want to hear you ever talk about college football because you can't do both I know this I literally study them 247 as a job all offseason it's impossible there's not enough time so I don't I don't even think it's real if I was to give you an NFL pick it's based off of nothing other than yeah I think I'm G to go with that one I think I'm gonna go with that one that just doesn't work for me and my Sundays are spent doing results shows watching watching back film all day long I love Sunday I haven't watched an NFL game in 5 years easy I do not give a [ __ ] about the NFL I will sit here and re-watch all the group of five games I got two monitors I can split it up into fours I can watch as much as I need to I got a TV over here can split up into fours shout out to YouTube TV multi view record all the games in my library shout out to ESPN plus can watch all the other games I just sit back and rewatch all the games and before I do a live stream like I'm doing now I watch that conference's games in the morning that's what I do I wake up in the morning I re-watch those games that I missed usually I watch as many as possible on Saturday ask an MVP bro I'm doing this this not a game but I will not be doing NFL at all I also think it's a one-way ticket to lose all your money Dill how many touchdowns will Arch Manning have in the second half versus Michigan I don't know I guess UTSA didn't want to get too physical with their running game exactly you got to be careful when you go if you go look at it it looks like they kept it but but if if that was the case when teams want to keep a vanilla they usually run and not throw so I don't know what's going on with UTSA but they came out throwing maybe they wanted to get work on their quarterbacks and figure out who their real starting quarterback is so they used kenesa State as a game where they went out and tested their quarterbacks and and treat it like practice because they did not use their three well-known running backs they're great that's not fair Club Nick could go play Pro in Germany I don't know anything about that good old rice Jamie Chadwell to Florida after this season sounds like a great hire is someone going to challenge Liberty and Conference USA please give me some hope no not necessarily Dominic I don't think that's going to happen what I think is going to happen is they play App State this year and we're going to probably see App State beat the breaks off of them and kind of give you guys an understanding of what group of five conferences are right the the pecking order for group of five conferences is the American which by the way if you didn't know the American is the Big East when the Big East was no longer a conference when the Big East stopped being a conference they changed their name to the American Athletic Conference so when you guys wonder why is the American so good why are they better than these other group of five teams it's because it's the Big East okay so you have the American who's in the past had undefeated teams like Cincinnati UCF and now Cincinnati UCF and Houston all leave to the Big 12 those are American teams okay okay now the American is still great with two lane Memphis South Florida these are great teams and then you have the Sun Belt and in the Sun Belt is where I see the the good teams Sun Bel I love it shout out to them right Texas State App State South Alabama there's some good teams over there but to me that's the pecking order and then you have the Mack and Conference USA bringing up the back of the pack and it's it's just unfortunate Liberty's doing well they're playing great but they're in a they're in a scrub ass conference and and we know this because when we see them play anybody outside of conference it's not it's not that impressive it really isn't they're beating up on nobody that's real talk shout out to them yes chadw Florida would be something different love the content Rico see you on Discord for the game let's win tonight I hope so man I don't play but I hope they get it figured out Liberty makes easy schedules and Conference STS to week to challenge them maybe an upset against Kentucky Western Kentucky you mean don't say Kentucky don't say Kentucky would beat them 100 to zero all right guys thanks for being here tonight I appreciate you guys remember I I couldn't do this without you as MVPs I love everybody at least if you're an MVP I rock with you thank you guys for making my life possible and never forget your friends don't know but Rico knows peace y'all
