The XFL's Role in Player Opportunities
00:04:11
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
We're going get rid of the XFL. I don't like the XFL. So, done with that.
00:04:15
Zack
a I like the XFL.
00:04:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Get out of here.
00:04:18
Zack
I don't actually watch it, but I just like seeing highlights sometimes.
00:04:18
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
you like the XFL?
00:04:21
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Do you like that it exists?
00:04:22
Zack
There's sometimes, yeah, i like there's opportunity for for the guys who don't make the NFL rosters to get to continue their career. some Some like Tennessee guys.
00:04:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Like the Lions kicker.
00:04:31
Mason
That kicker, yeah, that was kicking record-breaking kicks.
00:04:33
Zack
Sure.
00:04:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You know that he he was he was at Arkansas the same time as Cam Little, fun fact, but Cam Little was so good that the Lions kicker was only allowed to do kickoffs because Cam Little was so good in college, fun fact.
00:04:52
Zack
Hmm. That is fun.
00:04:53
Mason
That was free.
00:04:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And if you don't know who Cam Little is, you should look him up because he's the next GOAT of kicking footballs.
00:04:59
Mason
I wonder what team he plays on.
00:05:01
Zack
Tins wants him on his fancy team really bad.
00:05:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, that's true. Someone send this clip to Week eight.
00:05:09
Zack
I think it will make him want to not send him to you. Tins is collecting all of the valuable Jags players on his fancy team.
00:05:16
Mason
What could possibly go wrong? What, what bi-week did the Jags have?
00:05:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So it's approaching quickly and I just keep collecting more players.
00:05:22
Mason
How are we going to... Just, just the week.
00:05:30
Zack
true. Okay.

Mason
I did see that.
00:06:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
the The restaurant was very full, so we sat at the bar to be able to watch the games and get service and to eat and all that good stuff. The wings were amazing. Shout out... ah I forget.
00:06:16

00:06:30
Zack
This is when?
00:06:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Um, but then when, and the UT game was on too. So we had both of those and then some random Ohio state fan came after halftime and was like, can we turn one of these into, well, really what happened was there's also old, old couples sitting there watching baseball on the third TV.
00:06:43
Zack
No.
00:06:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So had three TVs. And they wanted baseball. And they went and changed it because they asked and they were there first. was like, whatever. We're watching football. And no one was speaking up about the two football games. And this guy was like, well, can we change it to Ohio State? And the bartender is about to change it. And then he asked me.
00:07:03
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He was like, are you watching these? I said, yeah. i'm watching like We're watching these. And the customer who just got there after I've already spent lots of money on food was like, well, you can move. And then I just pointed at his Ohio state game behind me somewhere else in the bar.
00:07:14
Zack
wrong
00:07:17
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And i was like, well, you can over there.
00:07:20

Tense Interaction with 49ers Fan
00:07:21
Mason

00:07:23
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He went over there.
00:07:24
Mason
Oh.
00:07:25

00:07:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Lots of apps.
00:07:44
Zack
I think at some point we need to rank, do a power ranking of maybe across all sports of least pleasant fans of like which teams to interact with. Cause Ohio state fans are high on the list.
00:07:55
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:07:57
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They are up there.
00:07:59
Zack
It's, and it's like, it's not because of demographics or anything. It's because they've like won so much that they just have a certain, like, yeah, and they, they just like, if I wear this, I I'm better than you.
00:08:07
Mason
I feel privileged.
00:08:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And they've spread. They're everywhere.
00:08:14
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:08:15
Zack
Alabama kind of has the same vibe, but Ohio State's worse, honestly.
00:08:15
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And they're... Yeah.
00:08:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I'll say it's worse. You know
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. 49ers Performance
00:08:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
who else is bad in the NFL?
00:08:22
Zack
Notre Dame is just delusional.
00:08:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
The 49ers.
00:08:24
Zack
Who?
00:08:25
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
49ers fans. They're pretty bad.
00:08:28
Zack
I believe that.
00:08:29
Mason
So, and yeah, so tell that story then. Now we got to hear that.
00:08:31
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
this guy had Robbie gold Jersey. I walk in this restaurant and there he is. and I immediately made eye contact. I was like, all right, so this guy's going a problem here in about an hour and a half when the game starts.
00:08:42
Mason
Were you wearing Jags?
00:08:42
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Um,
00:08:43
Mason
Get up.
00:08:44
Zack
What do you think, Mason?
00:08:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I just had a Jags hat on. I just had a hat. I wasn't trying to be real flashy.
00:08:48
Mason
Wow. He didn't have full bone.
00:08:49
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I wasn't trying to draw attention to myself. i didn't think that I didn't think I'd run into a 49ers fan. There's actually like three other Jags fans walked in like when the game started. I was like, what in the world is going on? I'm in Asheville, in North Carolina.
00:09:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Anyway, we shared a quick Duval and and went about our our business.
00:09:03
Zack
Heck yeah.
00:09:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
But yeah, this guy...
00:09:08
Mason
You mean Duvall.
00:09:12

Win a game and win a game and you can you can make jokes.
00:09:12

00:09:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Cam Ward. Because I'll just keep it a buck.
00:09:18
Mason
but so i got
00:09:19
Zack
We're tanking tins. It's fine.
00:09:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um
00:09:21
Mason
It's fine. We're doing this on purpose. Don't worry about us. See, you can't hurt us. We're already we already feel pain we're numb to pain at this point.
00:09:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I know. I know it hurts. I know. i know that stings when I when I tell you.
00:09:32
Zack
Not even a little bit. I guys literally don't.
00:09:33
Mason
No, I'm fine. He had to ask who we played this week, and I said, I don't even know. so so it sting. I'm fine. I'm completely fine. Focus on my fantasy and play some bets. So there you go.
00:09:47
Mason
And you move on. Go ahead, Tim. Sorry.
Tins' Presidential Plans for Sports
00:09:50
Mason
Story time. Robbie Gold.
00:09:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So yeah, he's in a Robbie gold Jersey. Jack's game starts out. Jack start out hot. And then of course we started doing the Jaguar thing in the middle of the game where it's like, Oh no, we're going to lose. Cause that's, you know, that's what we like to do.
00:10:02
Zack
Yeah. Sure.
00:10:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Um,
00:10:06
Zack
Yeah.
00:10:06
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
critical third down play. We get called for false start. He turns around and looks at me and goes, ah and that's when I told Morgan, I said, all right, he's, he's done enough. He keeps looking back this whole game.
00:10:15
Mason
Thank you.
00:10:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He keeps looking at me. keeps making, I said, I'm, I'm, I've had enough. She said, do not cause a scene in this restaurant. said too late. We convert the third down. I literally stand up and went, Oh man.
00:10:32
Zack
I believe that.
00:10:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And then after that, I was really loud obnoxious about everything else the rest of the game. He did come shake my hand when Parker Washington returned the punt for a touchdown. He said, good good game. It's over.
00:10:43
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
was all right, man.
00:10:43
Zack
Wow.
00:10:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Have a good day.
00:10:44
Zack
He shook your hand.
00:10:46
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Shaked my hand. So that's, you know, I'll give him that.
00:10:49
Zack
What a gentleman.
00:10:51
Mason
So when you're president, you said you were going to, you know, throw Jason Kelsey in prison or ban him or terrorists or whatever.
00:10:57
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Didn't say that.
00:10:58
Zack
I'm going to throw all 49 fans into the fire.
00:10:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
said was going to put... I said...
00:11:00
Mason
No, no. I was going to say, where's Robert Sala on that list?
00:11:05
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I don't need to worry about Robert Sala. We took care of him. We packed we packed up his lunch. I can't help that he was he got his feelings hurt because he got fired after the Vikings destroyed him when he was the Jets last year. And then our offensive coordinator may have worked for the Vikings last year, so he had to bring it up.
00:11:23
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Wasn't even asked about that. The reporter, when all this started, asked him about how losing Joey Bosa or Nick Bosa was going to affect their defense. He went out of his way to try to take shots at us.
00:11:36
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You know what? We got the dub. Their fans and media are still talking about it. We've moved on to the chiefs. They need to worry about the Rams.
00:11:46
Mason
You're going to be at that game, right? In Jacksonville against the Chiefs, right?
00:11:49
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You know, so some people are saying there might be a 10s sighting in the stadium.
00:11:50
Mason
Boots on the ground.
00:11:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It might just be the rally the rally that the boys need.
00:11:54
Zack
wow
00:11:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I mean, let's just
Team Confidence and Predictions
00:11:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
say I did call my shot. I said the avalanche is coming. We're going to beat the 49ers. And then guess what? That happened. What did I say was going to happen after that?
00:12:08
Mason
Because if you're not at that what did he say? If you're not at that game and they lose, you got to blame it on yourself at this point.
00:12:08
Zack
what say
00:12:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I don't know what you're putting.
00:12:16
Mason
So you got to be there.
00:12:17
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You're trying to put way too much pressure on me. why don't you go help your team out one time?
00:12:20
Mason
where're trying to put You're trying to put 1% of pressure on us and we're not even feeling anything. so
00:12:27
Zack
That is true.
00:12:27
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I need your team to win two games, maybe three because the Dolphins.
00:12:28
Mason
and
00:12:30
Mason
I'm good.
00:12:31
Zack
Yeah, I feel. I think that i think that once Callahan gets fired, we're going to win a couple.
00:12:35
Mason
Yeah, we don't need that.
00:12:36
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All
00:12:37
Zack
I'm going to cash out my Super Bowl bet.
00:12:37

00:12:39
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
right.
00:12:41
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They offered you a cash out. Yeah.
00:12:44
Zack
Definitely not. it's They already accepted their money. It's dead.
00:12:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Remember when Zach took that, he said, listen, the plan is working we're going to win the first couple and then I'm goingnna cash out.
00:12:50
Zack
Can I win a couple?
00:12:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It's not working so far.
00:12:56
Mason
Yep, didn't even get that close.
00:12:58
Zack
I didn't factor in Callahan just giving up.
00:13:02
Mason

oh We're going go through a couple categories here where we we talk about some matchups we like, some potential upset spots, what we think our game of the week is. um So, Mason, let's start with a player to watch or matchup to watch or whatever else.
00:13:39
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Real quick.
00:13:41
Mason
Yes, go ahead.
00:13:41
Zack
Yeah.
00:13:42
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Just before we dive in, I know last weekend was like labeled the the um sports weekend of of the century.
00:13:45
Zack
Yeah.
00:13:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
like
00:13:50
Zack
Yeah.
00:13:51
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Huge college games, really big NFL matchups. And it was. It great football weekend. Ryder Cup. Who cares about golf? um Europe won, I think. Something like that.
00:14:00
Zack
Fact.
00:14:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
ah Doesn't count. that's how i That's how I'm thinking of it. Yeah. This weekend is like the sneaky, the sneaky. Oh, oh man.
00:14:14
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Nothing can top last weekend, but there's some really good games this weekend. I know we're about to dive into them, but I hope everyone's ready to be on the couch for 14 hours on Saturday. um You can maybe take a break on Sunday. Sunday's not looking as good, but this college slate is packed.
00:14:30
Zack
Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:32
Mason
Packed. Okay, we want to do players to watch or game of the week? Player to watch.
00:14:37
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Player the Watch.
College Football Players to Watch
00:14:38
Zack
Yeah.
00:14:40
Mason
Player watch. Okay, I'm going to go with, and I did this last week with starting rookie quarterback, so I'm going to do this again. I'm going with another rookie to get his first start. And that's Dylan Gabriel starting for the Cleveland Browns.
00:14:58
Mason
ah Just curious curious to see how he plays, but also how the Browns handle this Shador Sanders, Dylan Gabriel situation, how long, how many chances he will get.
00:15:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It is a situation.
00:15:11
Mason
It's definitely a situation.
00:15:12
Zack
Thank
00:15:13
Mason
I did this last week and I enjoyed it and I threw out the ah Jackson Dart rushing touchdown, even though I didn't even freaking take it. But ah because I broke down the preseason games, but just real quick, he was hurt with a hamstring injury. The first preseason games of the stats for the two preseason games was 25 completions out of 37 attempts for 272 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
00:15:36
Mason
So small sample size, a little less than Jackson Dart, but just curious to see how he plays and how he does on the Browns.
00:15:46
Zack
Love it.
00:15:46
Mason
Bad of what they did to Flacco, my guy. He needs to get on the Bengals or something.
00:15:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
ah You know what? Flacco kind did it himself. he's a He might be a little washed. you my he He should have hung it up after last year.
00:15:58
Mason
I mean, he is 40. He plus.
00:16:01
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, exactly.
00:16:01
Zack
Do not mourn for Joe Flacco and we should be mourning for James Winston.
00:16:01
Mason
That's a good point, actually. Get him on the Bengals. I'd love to see him sling it to Jamar Chase.
00:16:11
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I mean, I said that.
00:16:12
Mason
What a matchup.
00:16:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I said that. I agreed.
00:16:14
Mason
Yeah, you did. I'm taking it.
00:16:17
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
say
00:16:17
Mason
Okay, that's my player to watch.
00:16:18
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I said this.
00:16:19
Zack
Can you imagine being Jamar Chase and just being completely wasted for a season with Jake Browning throwing you the ball?
00:16:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
ah Yeah, that'll be fantastic.
00:16:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. Did you see his tweet after the game?
00:16:27
Zack
Just like ruined a season.
00:16:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He said, y'all better leave me alone. That's what he's tweeting. He said, y'all just better leave me alone.
00:16:33
Zack
It sucks.
00:16:36
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
it's It does suck, but Jamar Chase did get the biggest ah contract ever for a non-quarterback this offseason. So he's doing okay.
00:16:45
Mason
Just
00:16:47
Zack
I would... If I were running that offense, I would be handing the ball off to Jamar Chase. We'd be running screens all day. it would That's all it would be.
00:16:54
Mason
give him the ball somehow.
00:16:55
Zack
like Jamar Chase, we're going to get you the ball and just go break tackles.
00:16:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Somehow.
00:17:00
Mason
Is that your player to watch, Zach? Jamar Chase?
00:17:02
Zack
It's not.
Quarterback Matchup Analysis
00:17:03
Mason
Oh, okay.
00:17:03
Zack
um I will get my player to watch here, though. um It's actually two players. I've kind of been doing these quarterback matchups to my player to watch because I think they're fun. um This week,
00:17:15
Zack
we're going to the state of Alabama. ah Diego Pavia travels to face Ty Simpson.
00:17:18
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
o
00:17:21
Zack
And what is, what a weird matchup here, but we have two quarterbacks who are playing very well. Diego Pavia, obviously a veteran guy leading this Vanderbilt team to a five and O start.
00:17:35
Zack
They have played some inferior competition so far. So we first test, obviously game day is going to be here. It's going be a huge matchup. um I do not anticipate this. I think,
00:17:46
Zack
I think I was going to win this pretty easily, to be honest with you. Um, yeah, see ah what tends his face that the take has been Vandy's got a chance and blah, blah, blah. Uh, here's the problem with Vanderbilt this year. Let me tell you, you want to hear it.
00:18:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yep.
00:18:00
Mason
Let's hear it.
00:18:01
Zack
They're not taking anybody by surprise this season. You think I've been sleeping into this game. I'm just trying to promise you they're not, uh, they're not going to play around as Vandy team. Vandy is much better than they have been in the past.
00:18:13
Zack
Diego Pavi is fun.
00:18:17
Zack
i just I think everyone's going win. That's not what I'm talking about I'm talking about matchup to watch. I'm talking about Diego Pavia matching up against Ty Simpson. Both of these are playing very well.
00:18:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:18:27
Zack
Both quarterbacks are kind of entered into the Heisman running to some degree, I think. Obviously, Bama coming off a big win against Georgia. A little bit of a letdown spot, potentially. like But I just think it's not going to happen here.
00:18:40
Zack
But a fun fun battle against some quarterbacks who have been playing very well lately.
00:18:45
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, ah Ty Simpson went from plus 2,000 to a plus 900 after the Georgia game.
00:18:50
Zack
Yeah. yeah
00:18:51
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um He's really bounced back ever since the opening game against Florida State. he's like he He looks good. They've kind of they found their level. i don't I mean, i we've talked about enough.
00:19:03
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I don't think Bama's just going to run over people anymore like they used to. but Ooh, let's talk about it.
00:19:07
Zack
No one wants to talk about this, but I'm going to talk about it. The Heisman rankings are literally just like, who is the quarterback on the top teams? And then it's like, they're literally ranked just following the AP poll.
00:19:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:19:21
Zack
If you look at it, it's it's just like, here are the top teams in the nation. These are their quarterbacks. Because they're on the best teams, they have to be in the running for, I fundamentally disagree with the Heisman being like that, but.
00:19:36
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
i
00:19:36
Zack
That's where we're at right now. Carson Beck, he's on a good team.
00:19:37
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I agree with you.
00:19:39
Zack
He does not deserve it. What has he done to deserve the Heisman other than just be on a good team?
00:19:42
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yep. I agree. And that was part of the reason why I said last week, if you thought Oregon was going to win, then go ahead and take Deontay Moore because he's been good,
00:19:50
Zack
i mean, Dante Moore's been good. He has. I mean, he's looked good.
Heisman Rankings Debate
00:19:53
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
but like,
00:19:53
Zack
Not like incredible.
00:19:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No one's put up a Heisman. like Even at this point last year, you started talking about Gentry. You started talking about Travis like a little bit. like okay like like There were some contenders where they were doing like good performances and having breakout games.
00:20:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No one's had that this year um so far.
00:20:11
Zack
Yeah.
00:20:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And I think right now, since we're on Heisman Talk,
00:20:14
Zack
There's some good wide receivers, but none of them are. Yeah.
00:20:17
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
this would be the time to take Jeremiah Smith right now because eventually Ohio State should just start buzzsawing some people. And it only takes like one 200-yard receiving game with two touchdowns where he separates himself from all these quarterbacks that are just not doing enough.
00:20:37
Mason
He's plus a thousand.
00:20:38
Zack
I'm going to give you another name, Tins.
00:20:40
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Okay.
00:20:40
Zack
Mason, I thought you were going to say a second ago, another Jeremiah, Jeremiah Love for Notre Dame, just had like four touchdowns against Arkansas.
00:20:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Running back. Yeah.
00:20:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:20:51
Zack
What's his number, Mason?
00:20:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:20:52
Mason
Plus 2,500.
00:20:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, it's not moved because I took it before the season started for Jeremiah Love because the the voters love Notre Dame.
00:20:59
Zack
That's because they've lost two games. That's the reason.
00:21:01
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I know.
00:21:01
Zack
I mean, that is what it is.
00:21:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
But they're going win out. If they win out their schedule, we thought Arkansas would be a tougher game for them.
00:21:07
Zack
I think...
00:21:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Notre Dame is like firmly, in my opinion, like in a playoff spot.
00:21:12
Zack
Wrong. Because I have the bet for them not to make it. so
00:21:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
i know I know you do, but we know we know how this goes.
00:21:18
Zack
They're going to lose. USC is their big game left.
00:21:21
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. But they always win that game for some reason.
00:21:22
Zack
Or this week, Boise State at Notre Dame.
00:21:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:21:27
Zack
What a fun upset that would be.
00:21:29
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That would be fun. That would be very fun. All right.
00:21:34
Zack
Okay.
00:21:34
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um My players of the week, I like to go college and NFL just because I like ball.
00:21:35
Zack
10th.
00:21:41
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um We're going to start in college.
Carson Beck's Game Pressure
00:21:43
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Carson Beck is my player to watch because I'm not a Carson Beck believer.
00:21:46
Mason
no
00:21:49
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I have made it known on this podcast.
00:21:50
Zack
peter might lock yeah This might lock someone into a championship game spot, essentially.
00:21:51
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I am a hater. I am. I'm in his hater club, but but he has a chance this weekend to play against a Florida state team. This is really a battle for who should be top of the ACC. Like these two teams probably end up playing each other. I don't know how the future of their schedules play out,
00:22:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Right. um Carson Beck has a chance to silence a lot of haters and doubters, me me included. um If he can go in here and have a good performance against Florida State and show why Miami gave him all that money, why Georgia was wrong for running him out of the building, do I believe that's what's going to happen? No, but that's why he's my player to watch this weekend.
00:22:36
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
In college.
00:22:36
Zack
Love it.
00:22:37
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He's got a lot to prove. And then over in the NFL, a guy I am a fan of, a guy I have been beating the drum for, ah dude that I said is going to be the best quarterback in his draft class.
00:22:45
Zack
Hmm.
00:22:49
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Drake May and the Patriots, one of my so one of my sleeper teams going into the season, I thought maybe could snatch a playoff spot, get to play the mighty Buffalo Josh Allens on Sunday night football.
00:23:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
huge underdog.
00:23:04
Zack
Hmm.
00:23:06
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Drake may has played very well. This season has all the PFF grades of a top 10 quarterback. He's, he's playing well.
Drake May vs. Buffalo Bills Showdown
00:23:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Braves is, has lifted the floor for the Patriots, but their defense is not good.
00:23:13
Zack
All right.
00:23:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They give up a lot of points. This is going to be a shootout type game. The bills defense isn't great either. So can Drake may go band for band match up straight up with Josh Allen and, you know, have an offensive shootout with him um and kind of like plant himself as like a, hey, you got to talk about me as a is one of the best quarterbacks in the league because I'm, look what I can do and and match what Josh is going to do because i think that's to be really fun Sunday night game.
00:23:51
Zack
Love it.
00:23:53
Zack
Okay. Moving on to our next category. ah Your upset potential of the week. Upset potential the Mason.
00:24:03
Mason
I love how Zach went in that order. I was going to chime in on Tinsley, and I was like, well, I better wait my turn. My upset potential was, great minds think alike, the Patriots plus 350.
00:24:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
o Oh, I love that.
00:24:12
Zack
Ooh. Wow. Wow.
00:24:15
Mason
ah he i i'll I'll be short because he he explained it very well, but eight and a half point
Patriots' Potential Upset of the Bills
00:24:22
Mason
underdogs. Did you did you say that part?
00:24:23
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No, i I didn't know where it was.
00:24:24
Mason
Okay.
00:24:25
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
i just knew there were.
00:24:25
Mason
the but the pay
00:24:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
but
00:24:27
Mason
This is coming off the Patriots putting up 42 points. Yes, you could say against the Panthers, but Drake may looked very comfortable underdogs. Had the rushing touchdown, was in my 30K parlay, by the way, and two throwing touchdowns. So it just looked, and I was turnedd tuned into that game because, and so he was making some great passes just because of that parlay I had.
00:24:50
Mason
But ah that's my, yeah, that's my upset potential.
00:24:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, I like that one too. that's I'm definitely taking them with the spread, um and I like the over. But yeah, it's a lot of points in the NFL game.
00:25:00
Mason
Eight and a half.
00:25:03
Mason
And division games are usually very scrappy, closer than everybody anticipates. So.
00:25:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, and I mean, is this Bills team invincible? I mean, they you look at their schedule, and it's like they they could 15-2. Yeah.
00:25:21
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
This is one of their harder matchups. They have the Chiefs in a few weeks. and then other than that, it's pretty soft.
00:25:31
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So could could they be like a little bit relaxed?
00:25:31
Zack
Love it.
00:25:34
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
A little too, oh, we're we're the mighty we're the mighty Bills and we don't have to worry about anything and then catchchcha catch a right hook from Drake May.
00:25:35
Mason
Could be.
00:25:43
Zack
Got
00:25:45
Zack
him. Okay. My upset of the week. This is going sound weird coming from me. ah Texas traveling to the swamp of Florida.
Texas vs. Florida Game Preview
00:25:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
who
00:26:00
Zack
Plus, plus 210 plus two.
00:26:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
it's
00:26:02
Zack
So it's only, it's only six and a half points. Six and half points. Um, listen, if you think that, if you think that the, that the Florida fans are not going to show up for this game, you're crazy.
00:26:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Some swamp magic.
00:26:14
Zack
It doesn't matter that they're not very good. Um, you just have to feel like DJ lag way has that, has that thing in him that can just flip at any time.
00:26:27
Zack
um
00:26:27
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:26:28
Zack
We know he's he's a better quarterback than what he's shown this year. we know that he kind of had a late start and he didn't get to play a lot in camp. They had a bye week, I believe, last week.
00:26:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:26:38
Zack
ah You have to believe that they're going to come in. oh Billy Napier, say what you want, is fighting for his job. team He's in the same situation he was last year when this team kind of rallied around that.
00:26:51
Zack
D.J. Lagoe came in and they started winning games. They shouldn't have won. Texas... texas I think that they are not a, what a lot of people thought they were going to be.
00:27:04
Zack
As we know, Arch Manning is really struggled. Um, I just think this is an upset spot. I, I'm not saying it will happen, but I saying it could, I'll give you another, longer upset odds, just, just for free for the people out there.
00:27:18
Zack
Um, this is coming from some firsthand experience. Uh, I'm taking, I'm not gonna take this bet, but I like it. Um, Mississippi State at Texas A&M.
00:27:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Oh.
00:27:31
Zack
Tell me a team I don't believe in. i don't believe in Texas A&M. Mississippi State's traveling to College Station. It's 14.5 points. i think that's too many points.
00:27:40
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:27:40
Zack
I would take the points there. I'm not sure I would take it. It's like plus 470 money line. um A&M always loses one of these games, though. They shouldn't lose.
00:27:49
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:27:49
Zack
you And it just feels like one of those one of those spots.
00:27:53
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
In Mississippi State... they I mean, I know they they took UT to the wire, but they're they're a lot better.
00:27:55
Zack
They're...
00:28:00
Zack
They're frisky.
00:28:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
they're a lot they're They're fighting a lot harder than people anticipated.
00:28:03
Zack
They are.
00:28:03
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Levy might, you know, yeah.
00:28:05
Zack
Quarterback's good.
00:28:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
The coach there, he might have done a good, like, he might have them in the right direction.
00:28:12
Zack
It seems like they are. And I think they're going to win a couple games this year that people never thought they would. They almost upset my Vols, and I just think that they're not just going to lay down and quit. I just feel like they have an upset in them this year, and it could very well be A&M on the road.
00:28:28
Zack
So there
00:28:29
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I like it. I like it.
00:28:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All right. Um, I'm going start with the easy one. That's the Jaguars on Monday night. No, it's not plus 200. Sorry, everyone.
00:28:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Um, Here's the thing. The Chiefs feel good about themselves. They just beat up on the Ravens. Newsflash. The Ravens lost seven defensive starters in the game against the Chiefs, which their defense was already playing really bad.
00:28:57
Zack
Sheesh.
00:29:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
ah Lamar also gets hurt in the game. That was a lick our wounds and let's just move on type situation for the Ravens. And the Chiefs kind of flexed their muscles and acted like their they're back.
00:29:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Well, guess what? That ends on Monday night in Jacksonville with the whole world watching. We're wearing the Prowler throwback uniforms.
00:29:19
Zack
Wow.
00:29:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And I'm just going to say, if you don't follow me on Twitter, it'll be the time to start. after Before, you're going to want to hop in before because it's i'm I'm going to the moon as of Monday night at midnight when the game's over.
00:29:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I got a lot of receipts. I got a lot of people I'm coming for.
00:29:42
Zack
Oh, gosh.
00:29:44
Mason
ah people like that you know. i'm trying to figure out who he's talking about specifically.
00:29:50
Zack
Proceeds, Mason.
00:29:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
There's people out in the world that will need to be brought to justice on the Twitter streets.
00:29:59
Mason
He's just already banking on them winning. They're three and a half point underdogs. and he's just already like So when the game's over...
00:30:04
Zack
Confidence.
00:30:05
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's fine. were three and We were three and a half point underdogs to the 49ers this week, too. And what did we do?
00:30:10
Mason
true and
00:30:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
We flew out west and we packed up ah Robert Sala's lunch.
00:30:15
Mason
Sorry, i want to know what three and a half point underdogs feels like. I'm only used to eight plus points.
00:30:22
Zack
That's fact. Yeah.
00:30:25
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
but So yeah, that's the NFL one. I don't have to dive in there. You guys all saw that one coming. um But my college one for the week is a little bit sneakier than that.
00:30:36
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And it's going to be the Maryland Terrapins over watching the Washington Huskies. um this Maryland team has already gotten one big upset this year over Wisconsin.
Maryland's Defensive Strengths
00:30:48
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Now, is that a good win? Turns out maybe not. Wisconsin's kind of bad, um but Maryland is undefeated under a true freshman quarterback who has been playing,
00:30:59
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
out of his Out of his mind. But the real story here is their defense. they They have the nation's leading sack. They have the most sacks by any team, sorry. And they have eight interceptions on the season.
00:31:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They're allowing 10.8 points per game. And I just think Washington's going to come in here. They just got beat up by Ohio State and they have to fly from one end of the country to the other. And we've not seen any of these West Coast teams come across the country yet and handle business the way they're supposed to.
00:31:33
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I don't think you walk into Maryland at 11 o'clock Eastern time and beat this team by six points, let alone beat them at all. I'm going to take a money line. I think this Maryland team is solid.
00:31:45
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They've invested a lot of money into the football team the last two years. And I really just like, I like, I like their chances here. Plus 200.
00:31:56
Zack
That's a good one. I didn't even have my eyes on that game, so shout

Hmm.

Mason
We're about to see what... and Yeah, Tinsley was right. The selection slate for Sunday. they There's very ah few pickings there. ah We're going to have to see if bucky Bucky Irving is going to be able to play. Was seen in a walking boot today. Tinsley shaking his head no.
00:33:11
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He's out.
00:33:11
Mason
Not looking good.
00:33:12
Mason

00:33:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He's out. According to my fantasy team, it is. Because it's already labeled as out.
00:33:16
Mason
ah ah Okay. Well, he's officially out then. I'm going to go with that one as my game of the week.
00:33:25
Zack
Love it.
00:33:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah that's it
00:33:26
Mason
Short, straight to the point.
00:33:27
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's a tricky one. The Bucks just refuse to die.
00:33:30
Mason
Yeah.
00:33:31
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They're like...
00:33:32
Zack
Bucks are fun.
00:33:33
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They're fun.
00:33:33
Mason
That's what I'm saying.
00:33:34
Zack
I'm kind of rooting for the Bucks because the Titans suck so much.
00:33:34
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Like, they don't...
00:33:36
Zack
i just like i'm so I'm quietly pulling for the What are the Bucks Super Bowl numbers looking like?
00:33:38
Mason
Baker Mayfield, fun to watch.
00:33:40
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
their and their injury list is yeah, Buka.
00:33:40
Mason
The rookie wide receiver. Yeah.
00:33:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um Probably plus 2,000.
00:33:47
Mason
Uh-oh, Zach's about to take it. Let's parlay that with a bunch of other things and we're looking pretty good.
00:33:50
Zack
For real? Ha ha ha!
00:33:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Probably. Yeah, yeah I mean, they just, they refuse to die. they They're always in every game. They almost beat the Eagles like they came back. um But, I mean, it's just the injuries keep mounting. Now with Bucky hurt, like, i don't know. But,
00:34:11
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I'm not going to count them out. And I'm not a big believer in the Seahawks. I think they're a little bit... They're a paper tiger. Which one?
00:34:18
Zack
2,500.
00:34:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Ooh.
00:34:21
Zack
I just took a dollar on them.
00:34:23
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
There you go.
00:34:24
Zack
Titans plus 100,000.
00:34:27
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So you're saying there's a chance.
00:34:30
Zack
Saying $1 pays out $1,000. We're pretty good about that.
00:34:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You've wasted a dollar on worse things.
00:34:40
Zack
Okay, my game of the week.
Miami vs. Florida State Rivalry
00:34:42
Zack
um From the state of Florida once again. ah Miami at Florida state. This is turned into a pretty fun little matchup here. Florida state or Miami number three in the nation.
00:34:52
Zack
According to the AP poll, Carson Beck playing good tens kind of broke down him a little bit ah playing a Florida state team that had a lot of hype ah following that win against Alabama just came coming down from the big upset loss against Virginia.
00:34:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Thank you.
00:35:06
Zack
But it's a big rivalry game. It's not really been close for in a while. Like this is going to First time this matchup has been really relevant and and a good bit. Like we said earlier, ah this is a kind of, it could be an ACC championship preview, kind of like Oregon, Washington was a couple of years ago, or like Georgia Bama is sometimes it kind of has that vibe of, these are obviously the two best teams in ACC right now. So this is just kind of seeing where everyone's at Florida state.
00:35:34
Zack
Say what you will about There's going to be a fun atmosphere down there, much better than Miami who plays 45 minutes off campus. Um, Um, so this should be fun one. I'm excited about it.
00:35:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, i I thought this is where you were going to go, so I picked a different game. But I i love i love this game. I love Florida State. um I really ah do think they bounce back. um On record, I don't believe in Miami.
00:36:01
Zack
yeah Yeah, it cost you early to know Carson Beck love for tens.
00:36:06
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. Which is funny. I was the biggest Miami guy last year because of Camp Ward. And then now here we are. Look at us.
00:36:14
Zack
Carson Beck.
00:36:15
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
now Now he's my arch enemy. And now zach Zach became the biggest Carson Beck guy over the summer.
00:36:17
Zack
Carson Beck.
00:36:23
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
but
00:36:23
Zack
Miami 4.5 point favorites over Florida State.
00:36:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
At Florida State?
00:36:30
Zack
Over under is 53.5. I mean, kind like that over. I feel like there's a piece of points.
00:36:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
ah don't thanks I don't know.
00:36:36
Zack
Fireworks. Fireworks.
00:36:39
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I feel like that's they both have really good defensive lines.
00:36:43
Zack
Yeah, you could be right. I just, I want it to be fireworks. ah I just want a high scoring game, you know?
00:36:48
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Bain from Miami, number eight, defensive end. He is, he's a freak of nature.
00:36:54
Zack
All of our big games last weekend were fun, but they just had like, they were just boring. Like even at Oregon Penn state and Georgia Bama were just like, well it they were fun defensive battles, like good teams, really good teams.
00:37:03
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:37:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Bama didn't even score a second half.
00:37:08
Zack
But it was just, I know, you just want to see a fun, high-flying kind of matchup.
00:37:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:37:15
Zack
you know
00:37:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's true. I, I, I agree, but I, well, we'll need them.
00:37:18
Zack
ACC is usually good for something like that, but we will see.
00:37:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
We'll need, we'll need a big explosion of points at a different game in the ACC this weekend. Um, we'll get to that.
00:37:30
Zack
Spoiler alert.
Vanderbilt vs. Alabama Game Dynamics
00:37:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All right. So my game of the week in college is Vandy and Bama. Um, i I think Bama's turned it around. Ty Simpsons looked good.
00:37:45
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um' um I'm going to sip some of this Vandy Kool-Aid. I'm going to believe in Diego Pavia to cover the 10.5 point spread. um Bama gets up for Georgia every year.
00:37:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And Kirby Smart, for some reason, cannot figure out how to beat Alabama other than ah in the national championship game when everyone bet on Bama, including myself. um That's the only time he's beat them.
00:38:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He, for some reason, Bama always gets up for that game because they know it's a big game. I think guys at Bama... Don't see Vanderbilt as a big game. They're just not going to.
00:38:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It's a 2 o'clock kickoff, right, in the afternoon. gets little old Vandy coming in. We'll handle it. I think final score, You live by the hook, you die by the hook.
00:38:29
Zack
After they lost last year?
00:38:36
Zack
but didn't cover the spread? Yeah, I know. and Maybe he covers it. Hmm.
00:38:42
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yep, Vandy's going to cover that spread. I think Diego's just got it. Just enough, just enough in them to cover that spread. I think it's going to fun game. I think it's gonna a fun back and forth.
00:38:53
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Diego Pavia is willing to die on the field for Vanderbilt. No one else in the world's ever been able to say that, but he loves this. He loves it.
00:38:59
Zack
That's a fact.
00:39:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He loves Vanderbilt.
00:39:00
Zack
That's true.
00:39:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
This guy bleeds.
00:39:02
Zack
What a weirdo.
00:39:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He bleeds anchor down golden black.
00:39:06
Zack
Golden black.
00:39:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I guess that, yeah, that's their colors. He's going to get anchor down tattooed on them. I'm sure of it.
00:39:12
Zack
I hope he does.
00:39:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Um, he goes He's going to get a statue built outside their stadium. And then my NFL game of the week is the Denver Broncos versus the Eagles.
00:39:25
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Fun little cross conference. You don't see, you know, it's not every weekend we get really fun matchups, AFC, NFC against each other. um The Broncos, hot shot team coming into the year.
00:39:34
Mason
I thought about that one.
00:39:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Everyone's kind of like, oh, they're going to win the AFC West. They're the sleeper team to dethrone the Chiefs. Turns out that might be the Chargers. But the Broncos are no slouches. They've been playing very well. um It kind of looked like Bo Nix kind of got some stuff figured out.
00:39:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Granted, it was against the Bengals whose pass defense is terrible. um But this Eagles defense, outside of their defensive line, their secondary is very questionable. So could we see Bo Nix take advantage of that?
00:40:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You've got Vic Fangio, the builder of the Denver Bronco defense. his the The guy who is the coordinator for the Broncos worked under him so that they run kind of the same style.
00:40:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And is this Eagle offense going to be able to do anything? like They're like so hot and cold. like They play really good for one half. Jalen Hurts didn't complete a pass in the second half against the Bucs.
00:40:29
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
AJ Brown is posting cryptid stuff all over his Instagram and Twitter um after the game. Like, I don't know. I feel like they're just, they're like a bad showing from things unraveling and maybe Nick Sirianni being on the hot seat again.
00:40:46
Zack
What a wild take. um Tid's trying to get the TikTok views there. He's just pulling Mason. a
00:40:56
Mason
I don't know what you're talking about.
00:40:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
But the Broncos are very good at shutting down the run.
00:40:59
Mason
I would never.
00:41:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So they're going to make Jalen Hurts pass the ball. And we'll see if he can do it.
00:41:06
Mason
If Tinsley's that confident, he would look the camera in the eye and say, Nick Ceriani is back on the hot seat. And then whoever does the TikTok post, whoever that TikTok, whoever's our TikTok person, they ah they need to post that video.
00:41:20
Zack
Yeah. Third party.
00:41:23
Mason
I don't know who that person would be, but they like to post anything that I say that's a hot take. can tell you that much.
00:41:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
listen, they know it gets the clicks.
00:41:34
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
they might They might have an AI system that makes the clips for them and it gives it a grade before I post it and it says that this is going to be very click-worthy.
00:41:44
Mason
So we trust AI for TikTok, but not for their bets.
00:41:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um' a I'm going to let you in a little secret.
00:41:47
Mason
Got it.
00:41:49
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I like AI.
00:41:49
Mason
Yeah.
00:41:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
AI is a really helpful tool. Not for betting, though.
00:41:52
Zack
not Not for betting, to be clear.
00:41:55
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Trust us. Only us for betting.
00:41:56
Mason
We are. we are We are leading the competition here.
00:42:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's right. I told AI that and it said, oh, that's fun.
00:42:06
Zack
They were losing.
00:42:06
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I said it didn't. ah Yeah.
00:42:07
Zack
no competitive spirit. They have no competitive spirit.
00:42:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I said, I said, I said, just so you know, I ask you to do this every week because me and my friends on our podcast do a competition with your parlay and we actually are winning. And they're like, oh, how fun. That must be a really fun segment for your listeners.
00:42:23
Zack
They have locker room issues, clearly.
00:42:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
but Yeah. They've got Mike McDaniels as their head coach.
00:42:26
Zack
they're They're losing Okay.
00:42:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
like Everything's just too chill and laid back.
00:42:35
Zack

00:42:42
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Love it.
00:42:45
Zack
We got a barn burner on our hands. We kind of had our first dud last week. we're We're looking for another fun game. We got a two and a half point spread. 58.5 points over under here. We are heading to the great state of California for New Mexico at San Jose State.
00:43:03
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
little Friday night, late night action.
00:43:03
Zack
This is Friday night Maction. This Maction, right?
New Mexico's Early Season Success
00:43:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No.
00:43:10
Zack
so That's Mountain West, isn't it?
00:43:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:43:13
Zack
Okay. Not Maction, just joking.
00:43:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Just joke.
00:43:16
Zack
But we are here. Best of the rest, if if you have not been with us here so far, we break down a matchup from around the country ah that is not getting covered by literally any other podcasts because we we feel like it's a fun time sometime.
00:43:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
True.
00:43:30
Zack
You know, this the game doesn't start till 10 p.m. my time on Friday night while I'll be watching it.
00:43:36
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Shout out East Coast time zone.
00:43:38
Zack
maybe the first five minutes.
00:43:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's the worst.
00:43:40
Zack
um But it's a fun, we like to give you some context. We'd like for you to know some people to watch, know some of the storylines. And so far we're three and one on our, on our best bets given out. So ah we can kind of find some lines that the rest of the country is not really looking at as closely as the big games. And we, we, we got to find our spots here. This is one of them.
00:44:01
Zack
I feel really good about our betting stuff today. So, um I was covering New Mexico. I was going to give you a quick little breakdown on this New Mexico team. They're three and one so far. ah They did beat UCLA team with a five-star quarterback at the helm that has recently lost their head coach and most of their coaching staff.
00:44:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah but but
00:44:22
Zack
But they have a new head coach this season.
00:44:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
What dig.
00:44:28
Zack
ah They are, his name is Jason Eck. He came from Idaho. Whenever your team gets an upgrade at a head coach and it's because they had success at Idaho, it tells you something about kind of where you're at as a program maybe.
00:44:42
Zack
He did bring over a bunch of his – I feel like a lot of the teams I've covered have had the same kind of storyline. they They brought over a lot of coaches and players with them as they go. You're not really paying for a coach anymore. You're paying for like ah half of a roster as well.
00:44:57
Zack
um a But he brought a couple of people with him, including their quarterback, who is kind of their – Their biggest name, Jack Lane. ah He came from Idaho. He threw for like 1,500 yards and 14 touchdowns at Idaho last year.
00:45:13
Zack
He's had a good season so far. He definitely has been kind of highlight. um They've got a couple of other people. They lost some players. One of their running backs went to USC. One of their quarterback went to Utah.
00:45:25
Zack
um They had a safety with Virginia virginia Tech. So they've they've had some significant talent move out with this head coaching change. um But that happens, you know, um when you have something like that go on.
00:45:38
Zack
ah They were projected to win 3.6 wins with 2.2 in conference by ESPN's FPI, which we know is really accurate all the time. ah This team is already 3-1.
00:45:50
Zack
ah So that feels that feels pretty good with their only loss ah being to Michigan. At Michigan is the first game of the season. So other than that, they've had a very good season. They beat a Power 4 team in UCLA.
00:46:03
Zack
um, they have, they've really kind of played better than what their record, uh, what they were projected to, um pass yards, like their passing game looks pretty good. I will say their, their run game is probably their biggest strength. They have a ah committee at running back.
00:46:21
Zack
Um, obviously with a line of 58 and a half, they, we expect this game to be pretty high scoring. Um, just that's I think what has become another storyline, unless you're a Bush Jones coach team, lot of these teams are high offense, um low defensive ah kind of strengths, just because I think, you know, if if you're building a program like this, you spend a lot of money or whatever on trying to get ah a good quarterback, a good running back, couple good receivers, and then the defense tends to drop off. But that's a fun team going on the road to San Jose State.
00:46:59
Zack
Tens, what do you got?
San Jose State's Season Struggles
00:47:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All right. um Shout out San Jose State because you have a really cool logo. I like your jerseys. That's about all the nice things I have to say about San Jose State, who is one in three, kind of the opposite. Going into the year, they were picked to kind of be a middle-of-the-pack Mountain West team.
00:47:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Now they are now just starting conference play. But... It didn't really look great before, like before we entered conference play, they lost lost to central Michigan.
00:47:29
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Who's not exactly a powerhouse over in the Mac. Um, obviously got beat up by Texas 38 to seven, a three point win over Idaho, who just lost their coach and everything to Zach's team, New Mexico, right? That's the,
00:47:46
Zack
Correct.
00:47:46
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Shout out Idaho. um And then one-point loss last week to Powerhouse Stanford.
00:47:55
Zack
on
00:47:55
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um
00:47:56
Zack
Pack two.
00:47:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. the Mainly the highlights for this team is that they had one player get any preseason award nomination.
00:48:04
Zack
All right.
00:48:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Not awards, but ah preseason selection for Mountain West defensive player. um like preseason team, and it was linebacker Jordan Pollard.
00:48:18
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He's really the only big standout player. um They had a true freshman quarterback who is local, C.J. Lee, who they wanted to kind of come in and compete for the job, but he got hurt in training camp.
00:48:31
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And so they had to go with Will Eggert – or, sorry, Walker Eggert, who is a senior. He's been here all four years. He started the second half of last year was his first time playing.
00:48:43
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And then he is the starter this year. He is thrown for 1,200 yards, six touchdowns, three interceptions. um They're averaging 24 points per game, which isn't terrible by any means.
00:48:57
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
But when you get to play Central Michigan and Idaho and Stanford, you should put up some more points than that. 13 total touchdowns on the year.
00:49:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I just i don't like this team at all, honestly. They are the home team. This is the second year under their head coach, first year with both their coordinators. i just don't feel like they got any juice. I don't i don't know.
00:49:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
they don't They didn't have a lot of transfers come into the school this year, um so it's just kind of a lot of whole like guys they brought in from the year before um when the coach was hired, and I just don't see it.
00:49:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I'm to agree the preseason predictions that they were supposed to be like a towards the bottom of the the mountain West.
00:49:43
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And I think with New Mexico, new coach coming in they've got the big win. They got the big win over UCLA. They're feeling good about themselves. They've got some juice to them this season.
00:49:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um I like their chances to come into San Diego state and handle business.
00:50:00
Zack
Yeah, I think Tins and I are on the same page here. We are going under the points.
Betting Prediction for New Mexico vs. San Jose State
00:50:08
Zack
58 and a half. And we're going with New Mexico plus two and a half.
00:50:11
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Too many points.
00:50:13
Zack
They're underdogs three and one on the season. They're underdogs on the road here against a pretty bad San Jose State team. I think that Jeff Kings is overrating that home field advantage, if I had to guess a little bit.
00:50:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:50:24
Zack
We're going, we're riding with New Mexico. I feel pretty good about that one.
00:50:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You know, a key part of overs is is kicks, extra points.

A fun fact about San Jose State. They are 4-12 on field goals this year. And they only hit 50% of their extra points.
00:50:46
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They got a bad kicker. When you got a bad kicker, that messes with spreads. That's when you mess with over-unders, you lose a point that you're already banking on after a touchdown because this guy stinks at his job.
00:50:59
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um So yeah, I like i like New Mexico scope with the points and I love the under.
00:51:06
Zack
All right, i like that one a lot. um Okay, moving on to
00:51:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Mets people didn't know they were getting San Jose State kicker breakdown, but you did.
00:51:16
Zack
Got it today. Stuff you will never get on any other podcast. We are going to give our best bets of the weekend to compete with AI.
Georgia vs. Kentucky Bet Analysis
00:51:25
Zack
I will go ahead and give mine here.
00:51:27
Zack
i am taking a game we have not even brought up today one time in a pretty significant...
00:51:36
Zack
We're going to call this a get right game. Georgia covers 20.5 points against Kentucky. Kentucky is bad defense. um i and I anticipate this being Stoops last season, whether it ends mid-season or not.
00:51:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Might be his last game.
00:51:51
Zack
um It could be. If they lose by 45, like Arkansas did or whatever, it could be his last game, truly. I'm taking Georgia minus 20.5. They did not mess around with Kentucky, I don't think. I think they...
00:52:04
Zack
um There's two ways you can come out come ah come out of a game like Bama. You can come out kind of soft and cold and just lackadaisical, or you can come out really angry. i think a Kirby Smart Coach team typically um is going to try and embarrass Kentucky here.
00:52:14
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And buzzsaw.
00:52:19
Zack
So 20 and half.
00:52:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:52:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, I agree. I think this one gets ugly quick.
00:52:26
Zack
Let's hope so. They did lose significantly to South Carolina last week. ah I think Kentucky's bad.
00:52:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, I think Kentucky's just, they're done. They're packed up. Their guys are eyeballing the transfer portal. Where are we headed, boys?
00:52:40
Zack
Probably in New Mexico, San Jose State.
00:52:43
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They need some guys. They need some players.
00:52:45
Zack
Truly.
00:52:49
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All right. Mine will stay in college. Also, shout out to us. I don't know if you know, but we did hit this and AI did not last week.
00:52:55
Zack
and We did.
00:52:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Right in their face.
00:52:57
Zack
We're up one to zero.
00:52:57
Mason
Nailed it.
00:52:59
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Cashed it at 10 a.m.
Clemson vs. North Carolina Over Bet
00:53:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um I'm getting, listen, you're going to want to plug your nose. You're going to want to say what in the world is even doing? What is happening?
00:53:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Sometimes you got to zig when your own brain was bag.
00:53:12
Zack
and
00:53:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And I'm taking over 46 and a half Clemson and North Carolina. It's strictly because North Carolina is so bad.
00:53:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They're so bad.
00:53:25
Zack
They're bad.
00:53:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They're so bad. I'm counting on 10 points from them. That's what I need.
00:53:30
Zack
right
00:53:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I need...
00:53:30
Zack
Like we predicted preseason, North Carolina is, as anticipated, very bad football.
00:53:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Exactly. We spent a lot of time breaking down how bad North Carolina would be and how they might not even win a game in the ACC. And anyone who thought they were crazy enough to like get in the a ACC championship game, like those guys deserve to get guitar their mics muted forever.
00:53:51
Zack
Yep, cut them.
00:53:51
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And podcasting equipment should be more expensive.
00:53:51
Mason
Mm-hmm.
00:53:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
that's That was our thought about people saying things like that. um For the real ball knowers... what we need ah All we need is UNC to score 10 points because I think Clemson is going to want to flex a little bit here.
00:54:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Dabo is hearing all the noise. He's washed. He can't do it. He's not as good as he used to be. Clemson's a joke. Poverty program. like
00:54:19
Zack
Those could be true things.
00:54:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He's a Trevor... He's a Trevor Lawrence merchant. Like we're hearing, he's hearing all these things. He's, he's listening. And I think he's going want to run it up. And I think UNC's defense is just bad enough that Cade Clubnick, who's supposedly supposed to be a good quarterback.
00:54:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He's never was, never will be. um He's going to be good enough this Saturday though, the score 40 points.
00:54:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Final 40 to 10.
00:54:44
Zack
This means we've seen one touchdown from North Carolina.
00:54:48
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Exactly. That's all we need. But we're going to get 10 points. So over 46 and a half, just trust me. Trust me here.
00:54:59
Mason
I trust you, Tins.
00:55:00
Zack
All right, Mason. Speaking of trusting him, Mason's got a hot take for us.
00:55:05
Mason
This is not that bad.
Justin Fields' Passing Yards Bet
00:55:06
Mason
We sweated out that Hawkinson won more than we needed to.
00:55:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Let's just say i was I was really ready to just fire some text at Mason about TJ Hawkinson.
00:55:15
Zack
Mason loves a player prop. Let me tell
00:55:17
Mason
i sure do. Speaking on player props.
00:55:18
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Mason lives a player prop that hit the week before and he's like, this happened last week. So it will happen again.
00:55:22
Zack
has to happen again.
00:55:23
Mason
Well, speaking of...
00:55:25
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
If there's anything that happens in the NFL, it's the same thing that happened the same next week.
00:55:32
Mason
Justin Fields, over 187.5 passing yards. Guess what? ah hit last week. ah And week one. So the game and the two games that he obviously didn't play, one he got out with the concussion and the other one he didn't play. So the two games that he has played the whole game, it's cashed by significant amount. 226 last week,
00:55:56
Mason
two eighteen week one
00:55:57
Zack
What would you say to someone that's concerned that he's only finished two of the four games this season so far? Yeah.
00:56:04
Mason
Um, about that.
00:56:05
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
and And who are the...
00:56:06
Mason
No, he's fine now. The concussion's over. It's fine.
00:56:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, concussions never come back.
00:56:08
Mason
and Everything's fine. Never. Never in a million years. But listen, why are y'all doubting me so much?
00:56:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And running quarterbacks never get hurt.
00:56:16
Mason
Tinsley just straight up said that he secretly hates his pick.
00:56:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:56:22
Mason
No comment.
00:56:22
Zack
Yeah.
00:56:23
Mason
Okay.
00:56:26
Mason
um It's expected to be a close game ah spread-wise for the Cowboys and the Jets. So I'm hoping he'll continue to have to keep up with the Cowboys, which means hopefully more attempts.
00:56:39
Mason
He's getting like 26 attempts, 25, somewhere around so he's getting though
00:56:41
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
which is crazy. which No team should let Justin throw that much.
00:56:46
Mason
yeah So he's getting the attempts there. So production is to follow, right? Maybe, hopefully. Okay, so there it is.
00:56:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Could be. Should be a shootout.
00:56:54
Zack
could be
00:56:55
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Cowboys can't stop a nosebleed and the Jets can't either. And Dax going to like, like if you were, if you were to give us Dax passing yards, I'd have been like, all right, yeah, we does
00:57:00
Mason
mean
00:57:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I'm just a little nervous.
00:57:08
Mason
Nobody's giving out Justin Fields.
00:57:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Justin runs around.
00:57:10
Zack
Nathan, I ride with you, I believe.
00:57:12
Mason
Thank you.
00:57:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I believe.
00:57:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I just i don't want him to get hurt.
00:57:13
Mason
we did We had zero down for that Hawkinson one.
00:57:16
Mason
He had zero yards in the first half. but yeah
00:57:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Oh, I outbought it.
00:57:19
Zack
It hit. We're fine.
00:57:21
Mason
it was
00:57:21
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I looked at my phone sideways and i was like, I'm about to send something to Mason.
00:57:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Like, did TJ Hawkinson, does he exist or is he dead?
00:57:26
Mason
And you didn't have to because it cashed.
00:57:29
Mason
no I think it was the last passing play he cast you.
00:57:31
Zack
It's crazy.
00:57:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It was. because I think Carson like threw an interception one of the next couple plays.
00:57:37
Mason
The next play and it was over. so Alright, there we go. And you put all of it in a parlay and it gives you what, tens?
00:57:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So the boys parlay is at plus. Now this is as of taping. I don't want to hear people complain about lines moving and blah, blah, blah. Kiss my butt. Our parlay is plus 581.
00:57:56
Mason
Somebody kiss it.
00:57:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
ai likes to give lines that move a lot and ah not in their favor either. AI is really dumb. All right. So AI is parlay of the week.
AI's Weekly Betting Predictions
00:58:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They did the same thing we did. We got two in college and one in in the NFL.
00:58:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
We're starting out with Michigan minus 17.5 against Wisconsin. just Just yikes to Wisconsin. Sorry. actually that That leg probably hits. Shout out AI. they They're going to get one, right?
00:58:25
Zack
Wisconsin's pretty bad. and
00:58:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Wisconsin is pretty bad. But here's the thing. I'm also i am a little little worried about AI this week because Illinois minus 8.5 against Purdue. um Purdue should just just play basketball.
00:58:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
the Their football team is just an utter joke.
00:58:40
Zack
yeah that's fair fair
00:58:43
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And then this is where ai is a coward because they moved the Detroit Lions or 10 and a half point favorites, but they moved it down to eight and a half over the Bengals. Unless the Bengals trade for Jameis Winston right now,
00:58:59
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I don't ah like the Lions like to run it up on people. There's no like off switch. Dan Campbell likes to flex his team's offensive muscles and go score more points. I'm under I'll say at Brown's out here playing 2K basketball till 4 getting caught on Xbox Live and then going and dropping two touchdowns on people's heads. Like we're we're in a world where the Lions are just fine without Ben Johnson, it turns out.
00:59:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And whoever took the win total under might be a dummy. You might not want to listen that guy about ball.
00:59:33
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Just joking. That was me.
00:59:38
Zack
Okay.
00:59:39
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
But their total was plus 501. five ah one So they're cowards. We got them by.
00:59:44
Zack
It's okay.
00:59:46
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
We got them by a lot.
00:59:47
Zack
what We're just going to beat them. I believe i like our, i like our, parla think we're on a hot, we're in a heater guys.
00:59:51
