The numbers tell the story, they always do. He's one of those idiots who believe in analytics. This is a numbers game with Gil Alexander on VSiN. Good Friday morning to you.
0:10
It is a Numbers Game at VSiN, the sports betting network. visa.com Game Plus, iHeartRadio, YouTube TV. However you're taking us in, we appreciate it. It's Gil Alexander. It's Kelly Vidlin in the izzy. Heyo.
0:21
What's happening? Not much, man. How you doing? Ah, I'm good, man. We have some, uh, breaking kicker news. Could you share it with everybody? Breaking kicker news. Yeah, we do. We do, uh- Breaking kicker news...
0:30
Michael Badgley out for the season with a torn hamstring he suffered in practice. Uh, if you're wondering where he's at these days, it is the Detroit Lions, uh, is where he's at.
0:40
Most people still think of him as a Charger, I think, but yeah.
0:42
Yeah, practice yesterday, uh, apparently, uh, suffered a significant injury, but it is a torn hamstring, a- according to Adam Schefter, will be out for the season. And as you said, you are no physician.
0:53
You did not go to medical school. Not a single year of medical school. Hamstrings seem important for a kicker. Yep. There you go. Breaking news right out, right out the top.
1:01
Um, on the show today, Zach Cohen, VSiN writer and editor, gonna talk some Olympic tennis and men's basketball with us in the Olympics. Olympics opening ceremony tonight.
1:10
I know we've had sports being played, but tonight is the official opening. LeBron James, Coco Gauff carrying our flag. Well, this...
1:19
See, this is where the Olympics coverage gets tricky, 'cause I think I saw, like, a 10:30 AM time on it, I don't know if that's Eastern or Pacific time, for when, when it would be live, but I'm guessing NBC is replaying it a bit later tonight.
1:30
Oh, yeah. I mean, live, yes. Correct. Time zone difference. Yeah. Um, Jordan Sherwood on UFC 304, Chris Felica, a little college football and beyond. Jason Weingarten as well. Uh, what division do we have today?
1:41
AFC South we will discuss today as we just, uh, continue our July, uh, division by division sort of analysis, which really leans a lot this week, 'cause it's preview guide season on FTN.
1:57
And, and Aaron Schatz's appearance earlier this week, I think more than any appearance we've had this summer, let's put it that way, I think his appearance was the most sort of blow up all your bets appearance of anybody.
2:11
Do you not agree with that? Ooh, um- Everything he said was contrary. Well, well first of all, Aaron's always amazing. Always fascinating. It was, it was a great guest appearance. Yes. Um,
2:21
I, I think a little yes, a little no. Okay. I'm gonna say yes. Um, thinks the Patriots are gonna win seven, thinks the Falcons have the worst defense in the NFL, under on the Colts and the Bears. What else?
2:36
Saints to win the division. Man, it just kept going on and on. Best value bets for the Super Bowl. Yeah. Dolphins, Texans. Well- Saints to win the division I think was the... I think, to me, that's the, the hottest take.
2:50
But just even when we went through it division by division, we'll continue today with the AFC South, the t- like, putting it into the context, their perspective is so interesting.
2:58
And we'll talk, uh, in what is a cluttered division in the AFC South, and there's tons of opinions, and you will probably be shocked by how they have the order of teams.
3:08
Kelly, you, you particularly head-to-head with Schatz on a lot of these. Let's just say he doesn't- He's, he's [laughs] Let's just say he doesn't like your Colts bet very much. Uh, oh, okay.
3:16
Well, uh, the only Colts bets I have, though, is swinging way high on Anthony Richardson. Well, he doesn't like it. Saying Anthony Richardson is MVP. Well, he doesn't like it. No, I shouldn't say that.
3:23
[laughs] No, they, they, we'll get into. We'll, we'll get- I would say the only one we're actually really head-to-head on is the Patriots. Okay. All right, well, yeah. I don't know.
3:32
Uh, here's the thing also that happened in the... Well, first of all, b- before I, we get to Zach, my tennis bets for the Olympics, I have Iga -175 to win the women's side. I have Carlitos at +135 to win the men's side.
3:44
That was made before Jannik Sinner pulled out. Um, nothing real spectacular there. I did make a quarter bet yesterday.
3:51
By the time we said on the show yesterday, "Oh my God, if you can find Coco Gauff, uh, whatever her number is, pound away in Q4," we were doing the show, so we couldn't bet it, but Kelly said, "Hey, MGM has -110."
4:03
By the time we got off air, -160, so I didn't bet that. But I did bet Karolina Muchova to win Q2 at +155, and that was quite the adventure, Kelly, I must say.
4:13
[laughs] Uh, 'cause it wasn't simple as going into, uh, our old good buddies over there, uh, across the, across the town and, uh, just putting down a dime on +155 or anything.
4:23
Uh, I had to bet it 14, or try to bet it 14 different times to get a dime down. Eh, removed it. Still got it, +155, Karolina Muchova to win Q2 with, uh, Rybakina gone in this tournament. Uh,
4:37
I don't know if it clears the way more for Iga, because Iga's side of the bracket, once again, is much more difficult. Coco got the best of it.
4:43
So those are the three bets: Iga and Carlitos to win, Karolina Muchova +550... Excuse me, +155. Pardon m- but +550, by the way. It's not +155 on the screen. +550 to win, uh, Q2.
4:56
Did I write that wrong or did you guys write that wrong? I don't know. Maybe. It's +550 anyway. Okay. Uh, so we'll talk to Zach about that bet. You didn't, actually. I did. Yeah, I might, I might, I might have done that.
5:04
I should have... You know what? I, yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm upset with myself, though, 'cause the, uh, I should, I should have grabbed, should have grabbed your entire text from yesterday [laughs] Yes...
5:12
and made it into a graphic [laughs] I g- I texted Kelly my exhaustive attempt to bet this 14 different times. It's such a great example of betting in Las Vegas, like, a- and- It is...
5:23
specific- spec- specifically for a bet like this, that I'm not gonna say is, it's not, it's not maybe a super popular bet, but it's also not, like, a super obscure bet either.
5:33
It involves, let's put it this way, it involves seeing it on the app, going to the, to the desk, them saying, "No, you can only bet it on the app," fine, put it on the app, then doing the whole, you know, they limit you, but then it's just a dumb, nonsensical limit because eventually you got the same amount you wanted in the first place on it.
5:54
It just took you 14 times to do it. Right. The message being, "What the heck is going on? What are we doing?" What are we doing? None of it makes sense. He didn't move the line on me. What are we doing?
6:04
Uh, maybe if, I don't know, it's too exhaustive. It's too, it's too detailed- [laughs]... to get it by the end of the show. It would've been just funny to look at. [laughs] It's a scroll.
6:10
It's like reading the Torah, for God sakes, making a bet. A little reference for a certain portion of the audience. Uh, the other thing that happened in the NFL, we got the Badgley news. Uh, Russell Wilson, calf injury.
6:22
Yes? Yeah. Now you think this is, you'd like to make more of this than people are. I don't, no. I mean, look- He couldn't practice yesterday...
6:29
the, the team's downplaying it, right, and they're saying they're being cautious. Yeah. But I, you just hear a calf with a quarterback, like it's, I mean, and not even, obviously we have last year to go off of.
6:39
The, the Joe Burrow Zapruder film footage of his calf injury. Right, exactly. Yeah. Um, and it's just, I don't know, it's a little bit of a red flag, and especially with a guy that they're...
6:49
I mean, look, the team brought in another quarterback as well- Yeah... uh, for you to comp- uh, you know, in theory, to compete with, or their quarterback of their future, uh, a little bit with Justin Fields.
7:00
So I mean, look, there are betting markets of week one starting quarterbacks. I just, I think this is a little fascinating. Why don't we take a gander? By the way, Russell Wilson, 35 years old, will be 36 in November.
7:11
Um, so yes, these are up. Who will be the week one starter?
7:15
We've looked at this earlier in the summer, but this, this Russell Wilson thing gives us entree to talk about it again because I do think there's a couple that are pretty interesting.
7:22
Uh, Russell Wilson's still the big favorite to be the week one starter for the Pittsburgh Steelers. He's at minus 750. If you think this is a thing, though, Justin Fields at plus 450 sits out there.
7:34
These are available at DraftKings. Um, let me cut down to the bottom. Jacoby Brissett minus 900 to be the Patriots' week one starter. Drake May, plus 550. I think that's, you know, appropriately priced.
7:46
Everything we heard is that Jacoby Brissett will be. In fact, Gerard Mayo saying he's the f- he's, what was his turn of phrase this week? F- uh, pro ready- Yeah... quarterback.
7:55
He referred- Most pro-ready quarterback, yeah. He's the, he's the most pro-ready quarterback we have. That's not a good thing, um, to say, but, uh, Jacoby Brissett's certainly a veteran.
8:04
It's more of a, uh, what are you trying to say about Drake May right now? But, but there's some of these things that go on in sports like, like it, I like, I like Jacoby Brissett. Everybody knows that anyways.
8:13
I like him st- separately from like... But like, you know how much respect I have for some of these guys like him that just know, like it's, you're gonna go into a season- Yeah...
8:22
that you likely have no chance to succeed in. You're likely gonna lose your job at some point, and you have to be okay signing up for that.
8:28
I bet your, I bet your mindset for a guy like that has to shift at some point to, "I've been this great athlete all my career, all my, all my life." Mm-hmm. Now I view it as having a really good job. Yeah, I think so.
8:40
I, I, I, and but, but like, you know, bravo for you being able- Yeah... to shift to that mindset, right? Yeah. Um, okay, we're second from the bottom.
8:49
Daniel Jones, minus 550 to be the starting quarterback week one for the Giants. Drew Lock, how many people listening were like, "Drew Lock is the backup quarterback in New York?" Uh, plus 380.
8:59
And that wouldn't even, I mean, I'm not running to bet that, but doesn't that feel a little light still, like- It's still a little light... they're gonna rule out Daniel Jones week one.
9:05
Yeah, in fact, it was shorter than this when it first came out. Right, yeah. So this is drifting towards Jones even more. Now, the two that we left for last are the most interesting. The Vikings, Sam Darnold's minus 500.
9:17
J.J. McCarthy, three to one. Um, there was a, there is a guy, by the way, Drew Lock, just to get, finish up the Giants thing, he said he was told Daniel Jones is the starter of the team. That's been conveyed to me.
9:30
So [laughs] that might be all you really need to know about that. Yeah, right. [laughs] Let's just sort of, if you take him at his word, uh, barring injuries, of course, with all this.
9:38
Okay, so there's, uh, Luke Easterling, who used to write for Sports Illustrated and is now a, uh, writer for Athlon, Pro Football Writers of Association, he's a member. He says that there is a shot that J.J.
9:50
McCarthy starts week one. Yeah, yep. So if you believe one guy anyway, J.J. McCarthy is three to one as the dog. Sam Darnold, minus 500. I, I, I mean, I've heard, I've heard that. Yeah.
10:02
I've also, I mean, going back to the Patriots real quick, I, like, it was, um, Adam Schefter's podcast. He's doing a bunch of team previews right now. S- uh, Simple Handicap, right? I think that's the name of his.
10:11
That's correct. Um- Yeah... wanted to make sure I got it right. Uh, uh, he's running, he's doing a great job.
10:16
He's doing, like, each team previews, but he's trying to grab, like, someone who covers the team and talk to them.
10:22
Uh, uh, I'm blanking on who he had on to talk about the Patriots, but he, uh, he threw out there an outside chance of M- if May looks good in camp. He thinks there's a better chance than most people are making it.
10:32
For Drake May? Yeah, if Drake May grabbing- Oh... grabbing the week one starting.
10:35
And then the, the biggest coin flip of them all, 'cause those are all pretty large favorites, but the coin flip, just barely a favorite now, Aidan O'Connell, we're talking the Raiders now.
10:44
Aidan O'Connell opened here at plus 170-ish to be the week one starter going up against Gardner Minshew. O'Connell, um, going into his second year, Gardner Minshew going into his sixth. Mm-hmm.
10:57
Gardner M- Gardner Minshew coming over from the Colts because obviously he saw Anthony Richardson and he's like, "Yeah, I probably shouldn't stick around here." O'Connell now a minus 120 slight favorite.
11:07
Gardner Minshew, even money. Uh, Antonio Pierce's comments on this just yesterday, local, uh, news reporter asked him, "Well, what about it, week one?" And Antonio Pierce in his usual eloquent way said, "Uh,
11:19
well, no one is obvious." [laughs] Unquote. They are splitting snaps at camp. All right. They're splitting them. So- It's gonna be a training camp and preseason thing. Yeah. Um, I still lean Minshew, but at this price.
11:33
At this price, there's no way. Yeah. But when it came out plus 170, I wish I sort of latched onto that. My bad on that. Um, what's the best bet, if you had to make one of all those?
11:43
Oh man, I'd, uh, I'd probably still lay it, uh, lay it with, uh- Lay it with one of the favorites. Yeah. Daniel Jones or something. Yep. Coming back, Zach Cohen on tennis next.
11:57
A numbers game on VSiN, the sports betting network. Don't forget to check out our website, vsin.com. Saratoga picks from Mike Salmich on there, and Del Mar as well. Zach on the Olympics, the tennis tournament.
12:11
JBT on Olympics men's basketball. Uh, so much there at the homepage, and of course, best bets, betting splits, exclusive articles, odds by state, betting tools, and betting guides all at vsin.com.
12:22
Real quick, some, uh, tweets, 'cause we'll never catch up otherwise. I have your answer really quick too. Oh, ch- Uh, Chad Ocho Cinco. Oh, well, let's get to that- Oh, okay... yeah, before we- Oh, oh...
12:30
that's apropos of nothing again. Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. There we go. Uh, Jamie Leyva, "I was not expecting to see Snoop and Dion Warwick lighting and passing the spliff, I mean torch this morning.
12:37
Did I mention I love this show? You guys are the best. Have a great weekend, gentlemen." Oh, I didn't see that with Snoop and Dion Warwick. Oh, interesting. Me either, but I have Olympics on.
12:45
TrustyGlove, "I love the Torah image, although it would be me- making a bet while reading the Old Testament." Yes, that's true. That would not be cool.
12:52
Uh, Steven Brocek 1870, uh, "Gil fires Kelly on air to start the week, then Bill Crackman starts telling unwanted height stories to get the show shut down yesterday.
12:59
Kelly will be unemployed by football season whether he likes it or not." I did not fire him. Hey, hey, all, all Crack was doing yesterday was reporting the news. He's just reporting the news.
13:06
This is a news reporter, guys, starting sometimes, okay? And I, and I was apologizing to Kelly, and then it got awkward.
13:11
[laughs] Steve the Proxy, "If only we knew someone that could deploy Delicious on Antonio Pierce in an upscale valet to find out who really is the starter for week one for the team that decided to make fun of Mahomes yesterday with a Kermit puppet.
13:22
Gil, is this something you might be interested in?" Uh, let me ref- let me, uh, explain all the references in there.
13:27
I live in the same complex as Antonio Pierce, and, uh, one time we were leaving and it was, uh, Antonio Pierce first, uh, I think Delicious second, and then me third.
13:34
[laughs] Um, so yeah, I could work up the courage to ask him who the week one starter is. Maybe I will. But can you believe the Raiders doing that Kermit the Frog thing to Mahomes? It's just- What are they doing?...
13:43
I, t- talk about a, uh- It's stupid... a decision that feels dumb in the moment, and I'm sure will feel dumber later. Chris Andrews, my mishpocha, not happy with my, uh, Mike Tomlin slander.
13:53
And then Phil Weiss, he said, "You guys are right. It must be tough on Brissett." Well, I didn't say it was tough. I was the one who said he has to transition into it being a job.
14:00
He said, "According to Sportrac, Jacoby Brissett's lifetime earnings, $50,881,475." [laughs] You're exactly right, Phil. That's my point. Still a good job. Yep, yep. Better job than you'll get in the real world.
14:14
Uh, ladies and gentlemen, let's talk some UFC 304. Jordan Sherwood joins us now courtesy of the Progressive Guest Line. Always pumped to have, uh, Jordan on.
14:22
Co-host of the Unnamed MMA podcast at ESPN Chicago, @WoodOnESPN1000 on the old Twitter machine. What's happening, Jordan? Everything is good.
14:31
We got a big UFC fight card taking, uh, place across the pond, so pleasure to, to speak to you guys as always to talk about some of the fights. Well, let's start.
14:38
I know you don't have an official bet on the main, on the main event between Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad. Muhammad a big dog here, but your thoughts anyway. Yeah, I mean, it's an interesting match up.
14:49
It's two years in the making. It's a rematch. These guys fought a few years ago. The fight was stopped because of, uh, an eye poke.
14:57
Belal Muhammad was, uh, rendered unable to continue, and he's been thinking about this fight, uh, f- since that point.
15:05
Uh, it's really interesting because this fight is obviously taking place in England, and a lot of money has come in on the English fighters, particularly those English fighters that are fighting Americans or Brazilians, not, you know, fellow E- European fighters.
15:20
I mean, shifting odds almost a dollar in their favor. That's not the case on, on Leon Edwards and Belal Muhammad. It has kind of remained at where it is, Belal Muhammad at a two to one underdog.
15:31
He's gonna come in with pressure. He's gonna come in with a wrestling game a- and try to utilize the tutelage he's been receiving now for the last year under, uh, Khabib Nurmagomedov to become the champion.
15:43
And the problem with that is that Leon Edwards has great takedown defense. He's been in there the last three fights with fellow wrestlers, Colby Covington and Kamaru Usman.
15:54
He's got a great clinch game, and he is a sniper when it comes to striking.
15:59
So, you know, Belal Muhammad's gonna have to walk through fire if he's going to, you know, become champion, win rounds, and, and get his hand raised.
16:08
It's a tall task, but I think if anybody could do it, and if there's something to fire off on, it's right now where it is at that two to one price with Belal Muhammad because I've talked to him, and it's not a biased pick 'cause he's from Chicago.
16:25
Um, but i- if you wanna go on an underdog and you think the timing is right, it is Belal Muhammad and, and the matchup that he, uh, brings to a fight against Leon Edwards.
16:36
I'd call you a homer, but you didn't pull the trigger on the bet, so I can't call you a homer, but I get the sentiment. All right, uh, co-main you do have an opinion on. Now, we talked about this with Lou yesterday.
16:44
It's, uh, Tom Aspinall against Curtis Blaydes, and we were talking about, uh, Curtis Blaydes. Uh, the only thing I knew about him is that he had this, you know, he has no chin.
16:52
Uh, Lou said, he goes, "It's a porcelain jaw," is w- [laughs] was his term on this. [laughs] And then you inform us, uh, one of the great nicknames ever, right? Curtis 'Razor' Blaydes. What are your thoughts here?
17:02
Yeah, I mean, j- just, well, just playing off of his last name, obviously great. Uh, but he's in for a world of hurt.
17:07
I mean, look, I, I wanna back Chicago fighters, but Blaydes is walking into this one like he's the White Sox. Uh, you know, and, and Tom Aspinall's...
17:15
Really any other team in Major League Baseball when they play the White Sox. Uh, Aspinall is special. Uh, he set the UFC record for shortest amount of time spent in the octagon.
17:25
He's a heavyweight that moves like a welterweight. He's got great boxing. He's a Brazilian jujitsu black belt, and I think he's going to literally steamroll Curtis 'Razor' Blaydes.
17:37
I don't think the wrestling that Blaydes, uh, could potentially utilize is gonna come in, uh, a- as a, as a weapon. Uh, and Aspinall, this is his coming out party again.
17:48
Uh, and it's now been, uh, announced, Dana White made it official, the winner of this fight will meet the winner of Jon Jones, Stipe Miocic to unify the championships. So that's a huge opportunity for Aspinall.
17:59
I think a- at a four to one price, not worth it whatsoever. Tom Aspinall to win by KO though, dollar 80. We've seen, as, uh, you just mentioned with Lou, mentioning Blaydes being knocked out.
18:10
He's been knocked out a couple of times before. I think Aspinall gets it done. And even juicier- I would say Aspinall knockout in round one if you could find it. Ooh. It might even be plus money, uh, on some books.
18:21
So yeah, this is, this, this is gonna be a short fight.
18:24
I think Curtis Blaydes has no option but to look for a double leg, and he's gonna run into a knock- a, an uppercut, and Aspinall's gonna have his hand raised likely in that first round.
18:33
By knockout, and knockout in round one if you can find it, on Tom Aspinall in the co-main. All right. Right before the co-main event, uh, is the lightweight bout between Bobby Green and Paddy Pimblett.
18:43
Now, Bobby Green has, you've, you've let us know, officially changed his name to King Green.
18:48
That, Kelly, if you could go back to what you were saying earlier, that got us thinking, uh, what is your favorite sports name, official name change of all time? And you were saying it's Ocho Cinco for you.
18:57
No, I don't really have an answer, but like- Yeah... Chad Johnson to Ocho Cinco I feel like is the, is the, one of the most well-known ones. Yeah. And I ha- we were wondering is he still named that.
19:06
Apparently he's changed his name back- Back... except Ocho Cinco is his middle name now. Oh, I see. Yeah. 'Cause I thought- Chad Ocho Cinco Johnson now...
19:13
his felt like more of a gag, whereas like, uh, Metta World Peace from- Yeah... Ron Artest, my favorite's still Lloyd Freedom World Be Free. Mm. Still the best.
19:20
Uh, so you have King Green and Paddy Pimblett here, and you definitely have a thought and a bet. Yeah, yeah, I, I do. Like I, I think, you know, obviously I think the UFC wants Paddy Pimblett to be a star.
19:31
He, he's very recognizable, he's fun in interviews, and at times he is an entertaining fighter, but I don't think he's lived up to the hype. I think he's benefited from some controversial decisions.
19:42
He's benefited f- from some favorable match-ups. This is not one.
19:46
He's not gonna have an advantage against Bobby Green, even though Bobby Green now is like 36 years of age, been in, you know, 50 mixed martial arts fights. He will not have an advantage on the feet.
19:57
Uh, Bobby Green's not gonna be intimidated going into hostile territory, uh, with a crowd that's gonna be pro-Paddy.
20:03
Uh, and if this fight can get to the ground, maybe Paddy has the advantage, but Bobby Green has elusive boxing, very strong takedown defense.
20:12
Uh, and this is one of those lines where, well, Paddy Pimblett was a big time underdog, almost, uh, you know, plus 150, plus 160 when the line opened.
20:21
It's now a virtual pick'em, so that's money coming in on Paddy Pimblett. I think you could even wait a little bit further for some more money to come in on Paddy Pimblett before you fire off on King Green.
20:31
I think King Green can get his hand raised, so that would be certainly a, a, a play that I would recommend. Uh, he, he's just a better fighter than what we've seen so far from Paddy Pimblett.
20:40
Uh, the only thing that I could think of happening is Bobby Green gets a little careless, gets a little reckless in there, Paddy Pimblett lands something, takes him down and, uh, and submits him.
20:49
But again, Bobby Green, not a guy that gets submitted a lot and, and I don't think Paddy Pimblett can knock him out. I- So I like Bobby... I, I like King Green in the fight. Sorry, gotta call him by his actual name.
20:57
[laughs] That's all right. King Green in the fight. We understand. But your strategy is, is stick around, wait a little before you pull the trigger on it?
21:03
I, I, yeah, I think, I, p- particularly on that one, because now it's a pick'em, so I think you could wait a little bit further till Paddy becomes the, the overall favorite, and then you fire off on King Green. Okay.
21:13
Six, uh, 60 seconds for the last one. Let's go to the prelims. There's a women's strawweight fight. Bruna Brazil, Molly McCann. Yeah. Molly McCann's the darling, uh, she, you know, for overseas, for English fighters.
21:24
She's finally at the weight that she be- she should be fighting at, at strawweight. Uh, and she's gonna get a favorable match-up against Bruna Brazil.
21:30
The only times that Meatball Molly, a great nickname by the way, uh, struggles, uh, is against grapplers, against wrestlers. That's not Bruna Brazil. She's a striker.
21:39
This is a, a, a layup for Molly McCann, so I think not at that price, a dollar, a four dollar favorite, nope. But to win inside the distance, to win by knockout, would be my recommended plays for Meatball Molly.
21:50
She's gonna get her hand raised 'cause the UFC wants her to be successful. All right. Aspinall TKO, -180. King Green, -105, but wait, he might get some plus money on that.
22:00
And Molly McCann, um, Molly McCann +150, the bet again on Molly McCann is? Is inside the distance or even knockout. Inside the distance. I think goes... Yeah, inside the distance. Okay.
22:11
You know, play it safe with, uh, either submission or a KO. I believe you called it a layup. All right. It's a layup. It's a layup. Have fun, English fans, that, uh, this card starts at 3:00 AM local time in England.
22:23
Whoa. Is that for us? I guess that's for us, huh? Yeah. That is for us. At a normal time. Thank you, Jordan. Appreciate it. Jordan Sherwood, everybody, on UFC 304.
22:34
Chris Felica standing by on the other side, all his bets, Olympics and beyond, next on The Numbers Game at VSiN, the sports betting network. [upbeat music] The numbers told the story, they always do.
22:43
It's one of those idiots who believe in analytics. This is The Numbers Game with Gil Alexander on VSiN. Hour number two of The Numbers Game at VSiN, the sports betting network.
22:52
VSiN.com, Game Plus, iHeartRadio, YouTube TV. It's Gil Alexander, it's Kelly Bidlin. We're looking at Felica in the camera while, while he's standing by. He's like, like [laughs] buttoning down his shirt.
23:04
[laughs] Please, for God's sakes. Just trying to match the show, man. [laughs] Yeah. He's The Bear. You know what that could mean. You have no idea what I'm talking about.
23:11
Uh, still to come, Jason Weingarten will continue with the AFC South, but he joins us now courtesy of Progressive Guest Line now that his shirt is back to being buttoned. Uh, you may know him as The Bear.
23:19
It's Chris Felica from Fox Sports, @ChrisFelica, F-E-L-I-C-A, on Twitter, joining us back at home on the East Coast after spending his whole summer in LA- Yeah... covering soccer. What's happening, man?
23:32
I, I, I call this The Gil. [laughs] See, don't do that. This is my homage- Don't do that... my hom- hom- homage to you. Yeah, so- By the way, nice schedule, nice schedule you have, by the way.
23:40
Work a week, vacation, work a week, vacation. [laughs] You know what's inter- Like, that, that, that's a good racket you got going on there...
23:46
you know, you know what's interesting about that is other people just disappear forever and no one says a word about them. But I do that and people are like, "Hey, you're leaving again?"
23:55
Oh, you know, just don't want them to forget me. Um, okay, we have many sports to talk about. Mm-hmm. Let's talk about your bread and butter first- [laughs]...
24:03
um, which is college football, and I just wanna go back to you had a long shot Heisman pick when you came on several weeks ago. Could you refresh our memory where that stands- Yeah...
24:14
if there's anybody else you're betting in Heisman markets?
24:16
Yeah, I, uh, uh, Julian Sayin, who is in the competition to be Ohio State's starting quarterback, was someone that I, he was 100 to 1 That, uh, I bet t- to win the Heisman thinking that Ohio State, uh, their starting quarterback, uh, was-- is going to be a Heisman candidate.
24:32
And at the time I wasn't sure what way they were gonna go, and I'm still really not sure ultimately what's going to happen.
24:38
But my sense is that Ohio State is so loaded that they probably will go with Will Howard, the experienced veteran who they brought in from Kansas State via the portal, uh, to, to turn the, turn the keys over to s- to him at least early in the year.
24:52
And but my guess is Sand will see a lot of time early in the year, and still possibly by the second half of the year, uh, he could be the guy.
25:00
But, um, I think at the start of the year when Ohio State pl- plays nobody, uh, we'll, we'll see a bunch of both. Oh. Decision, decision then. Okay. Did you- And did you, did you bet anybody else? Yeah, I did. I bet...
25:16
A- and I, I actually bet one of the Ohio State, uh, teammates, uh, Jeremiah Smith, the freshman wide receiver who, uh, by all, by all accounts is a complete freak show. Um, tall, physical. I know the, the natural...
25:33
The, uh, immediate comparisons some people have made to him is, uh, is, um... Oh, shoot, I forgot who. Uh, Julio Jones. Sorry, I, I lost my train of thought there for a second. But, uh, he is wowing people there.
25:47
I, I've heard from people that he could potentially be a top five or top 10 pick right now if he would've left out of high school.
25:55
Um, I hear he's the real deal, and if you're in a situation here where maybe you're kind of poking holes in some of the quarterbacks at the top of the, uh,
26:04
the top of the rankings there, in the top 10, may- and looking for someone other than a quarterback to win, uh, maybe he's the type of guy who can win.
26:10
Remember we saw Dev- Devonte Smith win, uh, in 2020, so it's not uncommon for a wide receiver to win. So, uh, I did bet Jeremiah Smith. He was about 150 to 1, uh, to win, so I got, I got him as well.
26:22
And then the only other, the only other college football thing I bet this week, uh, and I bet... I added to a position, I can't remember if it was this show or if it was Wi- with Will and, uh, Dave Ross.
26:33
Uh, I bet more Arizona under eight, uh, and it's e- eight minus 140 at DraftKings. Um, I just think the move to the Big 12 with the coaching staff, I, I know they bring, uh, Fifita and T-Mac back.
26:47
Uh, they lost so much on, on, up front on the defensive line, which was a big part of their, uh, success last year. Uh, going...
26:55
They gotta go to Utah, they gotta go to TCU, they gotta go to Kansas State, uh, they got BYU on the road.
27:02
A- a- and what they're gonna face, I think, even at home in Colorado, and at home, who knows how Colorado's gonna be, uh, I, I think seven and five is certainly on the, on the table for Arizona.
27:11
Remember, this is a team that, I think they had a 20 game losing streak, uh, it, it going into, uh, last year.
27:17
And, uh, the, the, the improvement they made under Jedd Fisch and his assistants and his, uh, support staff was, uh, was pretty amazing.
27:24
And now with Fisch and all those guys gone, and a lot of them moved on to Washington, uh, we'll, we'll see if, uh, Brennan and his coaching staff can do the same thing.
27:31
But, uh, I'm, uh, I'm under eight on Arizona, and I added to that yesterday. All right.
27:35
By the way, Heisman Trophy odds, in case you're wondering, Dillon Gabriel of Oregon plus 750, Carson Beck eight to one, before you get to the, uh, the double digit folks there for, uh, Heisman.
27:46
Is that the, uh, is that the f- front sheet right there for Heisman? Yeah? Mm-hmm. Guess so. Okay. Um, Quinn Ewers, by the way, leading the, uh, the double digit parade.
27:53
All quarterbacks there on the left side of that screen. So where's the first non-quarterback in there? Man, it is loaded with quarterbacks. Okay. Um, baseball.
28:03
Kelly, by the way, we're winning this V and wide contest 'cause the Braves are on- Yeah, right you are... Braves are only a game and a half clear of being on the outside looking in. [howls] Let's go. Yes, indeed.
28:12
What are your baseball thoughts, sir? Well, I've got that at 22 to 1 from back- Wow... way back when, so I'm feeling pretty good about that.
28:20
Uh, and I fired this week as well on, on the Yankees a plus 1700 to miss the playoffs in the same, uh, vein. Like, like, they, they're f- they're four and a half clear right now of the Red Sox.
28:31
They've got three games at Fenway this week. This is a team, they're 10 and 22 I- in their last 32 games. They got the six on the road at Boston and Philly coming up.
28:41
And you look, they face Car- they face Cutter Crawford, they face Tanner Houck, they face Wheeler, Nola, and Sanchez in five of those six games. It, it, it's a t- it's a horrific lineup outside of Judge and Soto.
28:53
It, it's clear that they're not gonna be a big buyer at the deadline. They're gonna look through the, the, the discount rack and try and add some pieces here or there.
29:01
Uh, they're, they're not gonna be in the, in the crochet sweepstakes or anyone like that. You saw the Mariners make a move, uh, last night, which will probably be a big asset for them.
29:10
And, uh, Randy Arozarena, uh, like, they can certainly get into wild card consideration again now with that rotation.
29:16
Uh, I, I think the Yankees are a, a team on the decline, and I think you can find, uh, worse bets out there than them at plus 1700 to miss the playoffs. And then on the other, on the flip side, I would...
29:28
Well, I think this was definitely with, uh, with, with Dave and Will a couple weeks back. Uh, we were talking about a, uh, uh, NL MVP, and I mentioned like, "Can you make a case for Francisco Lindor?"
29:38
And at the time I really didn't know if I necessarily believed it. But if you look at- Oh... like what he's done the last couple of months- Incredible... 298, third- thir- 13 homers, 33 rubies, 12 stolen bases.
29:51
He's third in the na- na- uh, National League amongst hitters in war. Now look, I get... Uh, and he, they were, they, the Mets were at 22 and 33 on the morning of May 30th.
30:00
They're 32 and 15 since, and that coincides with this eruption from Lindor. We all know how the New York media market can go and drive a narrative and drive a story. We saw it.
30:11
I remember when you were excited a couple years back when, uh, Brian Daboll won Coach of the Year. So we've seen that- [laughs]... uh, happen before. Yeah. But what, what happened... Yeah, we're handicapping voters.
30:22
There may be some people out there who say, "You know what? Shohei Ohtani- He's a DH. He's not even playing in the field. He's not pitching.
30:29
There were, there were people out there last year who didn't think he should win the MVP, uh, in the American League, despite the fact he was the best hitter and the best pitcher, uh, in, in the AL.
30:38
Uh, the Dodgers were supposed to be good. Who knows how maybe there's some voters out there that kinda roll on their eyes about the gambling, uh, situation with him and be like, "Yeah, that's really what happened."
30:47
Like, I think there's some people out there and w- it'll be interesting to see how they potentially handle, uh, the vote for him. Uh, you've got Bryce Harper who won Juan Soto's MVP a couple years ago.
30:58
Maybe people view the, the Phillies as being bolstered by that rotation this year and not necessarily Harper. I, I'm, I'm just saying. Do I ultimately think Lindor is going to win? Probably not.
31:10
He's down to what, 19 to 1 I think when I checked this morning. I still think it's worth the play. Uh, but if the Mets make the playoffs, he is absolutely, uh, gonna be in this thing.
31:19
Yeah, it's Shohei minus 400, it's Bryce Harper plus 450, and then it's Lindor at 19 to 1 who has been Bobby Witt hot.
31:26
And I sort of view him the same way I do Witt, which is I want so badly to bet Bobby Witt Jr., but I see Judge's stats. Mm-hmm.
31:36
And no matter how bad the Yankees get, I just feel like it's a, like you said, it's a New York bias. It's almost the opposite of what you're saying. It's a New York bias. Right. I can't possibly bet Bobby Witt Jr.
31:47
But with Lindor, I look at Shohei's stats, 31 homers, 74 ribbies, and I'm like, "Yeah, but..." Right?
31:53
I can't, I just can't quite get to a bet on Witt or Lindor, but I completely understand why you, uh, for all the reasons you state, why that is a tempting bet. Olympics, we got two minutes. What do you bet? Yeah.
32:06
I, I bet, I bet, uh, France, uh, national team soccer, uh, to win gold. Um, I think it's down to, like, plus 160 now. Like, they, they are the best team.
32:17
I, I think Spain is right there atop the odds boards with them, but this is not, uh, Spain did not bring really any of the players that were a part of the, the, the recent Euro championship run, uh, that they had in Germany.
32:29
Uh, France has Mateta, Lacazette, uh, Michael Olise. Like, like, they are, they, they're loaded. They are the best team. They completely, uh, shut down the US in the opening match three-nil.
32:40
A kind of a trial run for Thierry Henry. Maybe he gets a bigger, uh, uh, p- position throughout the world in the, in the coaching ranks.
32:47
But I, I think, I know Drew is very high on France, under 24 and a half goals I think it was. Uh, this is probably one of the goals that France is going to win.
32:55
So, uh, even at plus 160, I would suggest a, uh, a play on France to, uh, to win the gold here in men's soccer. Okay. Any thoughts on the, uh, Paraguay-Israel match? Any thoughts on that one?
33:05
Uh, Par- well, Paraguay were one of the weaker, terrible sides in, uh, in Copa, and certainly not one, not, not the team that, uh, they once were back around 2010. I mean, uh,
33:18
y- y- you know how scrappy the Israelis can be on the pitch. [laughs] Feels like an Isr- it, it feels like an Israel draw, uh, w- Israel double chance, win or draw for, uh, for, for Israel there. I like that.
33:28
How about that? You know how scrappy Israel can be on the pitch. I liked the Par- the Paraguay- [laughs]... breakdown for you to try to make you feel better.
33:36
[laughs] Well, Paraguay's a- No, I, I, I- Paraguay's a- I rem- I, I remember 2010 World Cup. They, they were, they were a threat.
33:40
Anthony Galeano was a, uh, a, a good defender and, and they, they were a g- kind of a, a middling, uh, quote-unquote team that, that could beat some of the big boys. This is not, uh, that team now.
33:51
They were terrible in Copa a couple weeks back. I, I bet some alternate win totals at the D right, right behind you, by the way, when I was there with, uh, with Kelly and Jared last week, by the way. Oh, which is fire.
34:01
Bet the, uh, I bet the Vikings over seven and a half, uh, Seahawks over eight and a half, uh, Jets over 10 and a half, Falcons under eight and a half, Chargers under seven and a half, and Buccaneers under six and a half.
34:13
Oh. There we go. Wait until- There's a, there's a deep dive breakdown on all those bets. There it is. [laughs] Deep dive. Thank you, Chris. Chris Fallica, everybody. The Bear. El Oso.
34:25
You know how Israel can be on the pitch. Thank you. And, uh, excuse me, AFC South continues next. A numbers game on VSiN, the sports betting network.

Uh, Saratoga picks once again up there from Etsy Hunt, and, uh, Adam Burke with his NFL betting guide, previews, picks, and predictions. Josh Applebaum on his, uh, MLB betting splits piece.
35:10
Adam Burke also in there with NFL survivor pools. How about that? Blueprint for all 18 weeks. Survivor season is upon us. It's all at vsin.com. You gonna do Survivor this year, Kelly? Yeah.
35:22
You gonna do, uh- I'm gonna be in. You gonna be Circa Millions also? Yeah. How many entries for each are you doing? Probably one, just one and one. One and one? Yeah. Probably. I'm definitely doing one Millions.
35:32
We'll see. But who knows how many- Or I don't know, like I always do two Millions, I should say. One by myself, one I always split, uh, split with a buddy back east. Have you ever flirted
35:42
with greatness in Millions, or in any like contest? I've been live, I've been live going into the final weeks of quarters multiple times. Oh, okay. Probably three or four times.
35:52
I'm just talking about a full season though. No, absolutely not. Yep. Me neither. I mean, I've had, I've had multiple where I've hit, I think I've had two seasons in Millions where I've hit over 60%.
36:02
You just don't even come close. [laughs] The one year I was in, uh, the gold contest over there at the Westgate. Yeah.
36:08
I think I got deep into that, where I was, like, interested literally through 10 or 11 weeks, and then I fell off. But that was a s- you know, smaller pool, obviously, too. But Survivor's the gift that keeps on giving.
36:20
Joe Pete is back in it this year. He was talking about how pumped he is about it. Um- I've never played it. You've never done Survivor? Not, not at Circa. I, I've played it at, at other places.
36:28
In real life you've- I've never done Circa Survivor... thing ever I just, I'm, I'm always the guy who craps out early Although I will say this, and I, I know I'm gonna let the hate wash over me. That whole run
36:41
down the stretch last year where, where, and by the way, Greg Jones was so kind to, like, share with us- Mm-hmm... everything he was doing. Fezzik was part of that.
36:49
So we were, like, really into the weeds on how folks were trying to monetize their pools down the stretch.
36:56
That was almost more stressful than the game itself, and I wonder if you were alive- It's the legend, Randy McKay... hey, it's Randy McKay over here.
37:05
[laughs] If you were, if you were alive- I was like, "That guy looks familiar."...
37:07
down the fir- if you were down, uh, if you were still alive, like, the last four or five weeks and you were monetizing it, you almost dread it in some weird way. Yeah.
37:16
'Cause you're like, "Oh, now I gotta deal with this, and I gotta deal with everybody telling me what I'm doing wrong and what I'm doing right." Like, I felt like it was,
37:24
I feel like everybody's a know-it-all down the stretch. Mm-hmm. And, and it kind of- Including us, yep... well, we tried not giving our opinions, you and me.
37:32
[laughs] 'Cause there were people way smarter than us who were. Right. We tried not to. [laughs] Yeah. But I'm just saying, like, it was, it, it just, it was this weird thing that before last year I hadn't really
37:43
felt it, but d- but last year I was like, "Oh my God, this sounds terrible now." And then we all had one- Yeah... and then we all went out to dinner with the winners and we were all having a great time.
37:52
But I'm just saying, it was, it added a little bit of negativity to it for me.
37:56
I think you had a great point even beginning, you know, this was probably around this time last year, of the, you know, what's the correct number to be playing, right? Oh, entries? Yeah. Yeah, entries-wise. Yeah.
38:05
I think that's a fascinating discussion. People, people lose their mind when I say that. They think they're so much smarter than me on that. Yeah. Yeah. I'm just rolling with one. I'm always that guy.
38:13
Like, I've done survivor contests before. Like, [laughs] I don't know, I don't know that I've gotten beyond week, like, six ever. [laughs] Oh. People have trouble because I say you play only one optimally. Right. Okay.
38:25
But again, that doesn't, that, that's, that doesn't mean, like, I'm, I'm only playing one. I'm starting with a bunch, but, but ultimately, ultimately the other stuff is overrated.
38:38
If you can get deep with multiple- Mm-hmm... then it's not overrated. Right. Obviously.
38:43
But the people who do, and then people use that as evidence to suggest why that's a better way, they're a smallest fraction of people who get that way. That doesn't prove that I'm wrong, right? No, totally. Yeah, yeah.
38:54
It just proves that you were the w- you were the smallest amount of pe- you were in that small thimble of a percentage that was able to make it work for you. But for most people, y- I mean...
39:05
It's also, like, you're talking- Yeah...
39:06
like, the, you know, I, playing it optimally too, like that's the, yeah, like, I, I've never gotten deep in a survivor contest, but that's g- like, I'm usually taking pretty big risks, like, early on.
39:15
Like, teams that I w- I'd like to, I think I know better than, right, and wanna get out of the way to, to, to be able to capitalize on them early to set up the back end better.
39:26
I've gotten deep in one or two in my life, and I almost am thankful I only have one at that point. Hmm. Yeah. Yep. But people are gonna th- So much. It, it's so much fun though...
39:38
people, people have their thoughts on it... so much fun. I think that there's- It's so great... like, I lo- like, I, like I was saying, I always do a, I do one Circuit of Millions myself.
39:45
I do one that I split with a buddy back east. I think a, much like fantasy football, th- things like this, if you split contests, uh, with old friends, like, what, what does it do?
39:54
I, I, I'm a guy who's, who's in his late 30s now.
39:56
Some of your friends that you've had from, you know, high school, college, early 20s or whatever, that you don't talk too much th- these days 'cause everybody's lives are so busy, it, like, forces you to have a conversation every single week, right?
40:08
So I, it's one of my favorite parts to one of my good friends that like- Oh, you become, you become obsessed with it. Yeah, but, like, it makes you keep in touch with someone. You know what I'm saying?
40:15
Bro, we, we- Like, split these contests too... I know everybody talks about how we were the only show talking about it for a couple years, right? It i- it's obsession. It's an absolute obsession. Mm-hmm.
40:21
You said you were in your late 30s? Yeah. Aren't, aren't you 36? 37, about to turn 38. Oh, okay. 'Cause I was gonna say, if you're 36- I qualify for late, right? Yeah, well, late. Th- Hmm...
40:30
people who are, like, 36 who say they're late 30s, I'm like, "No, you're still mid." [laughs] 34 through 36 still mid. I have one tennis pick, uh, later today, by the way.
40:37
This is the, the last tennis matches before the Olympics. Uh, we hit on Magda Linette this morning, easy-peasy, and then I got the best of a walkover finally. Nice. Look at you. That feels so good.
40:49
You're, like, one and 22 in your past 23 walkovers. That's correct. That's right. But God bless America, I got one back in, uh, got one back this morning.
40:56
So we're one and O today, and the only one I have left is in Atlanta. That's tonight on the hard courts. I am taking a dog, Mattia Bellucci.
41:04
Mattia Bellucci plus 133 is what the p- is what the price is right now against the, uh, the Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech. That is in, uh, Rinderknech is in, uh, is a French player, but that's in Atlanta tonight. And
41:18
again, I put these out, as does every host and guest on the network, every sport, at vsan.com/picks. That is for, uh, subscribers. And by the way, I got Bellucci at the exact same number yesterday.
41:28
How is F- uh, how is Tiafoe only minus 200 over a dude I've never heard before? Uh, Yoshihito Nishioka? Yeah. Uh, because Nishioka's been playing really well all of a sudden. Oh, okay. Yeah.
41:40
I thought Karatsev might take down Tiafoe. I didn't have a bet in it, but Tiafoe is big, big foe is great in the United States.
41:47
I was gonna say, there's only, there's only two names left in this tournament I even recognize. You recognize big foe and you recognize Jordan Thompson. Oh, no, I don't, have no idea who that is. Oh.
41:56
Uh, his opponent tonight, Alejandro Davidovich Fokina. That's right. 'Cause you've played him a few times. Uh, by the way, uh, Xueruin Shang sh- uh, beating, uh, Ben Shelton yesterday.
42:05
I was g- I was gonna text you and say, "Oh, look, just watched Ben Shelton lose a match." Ah, okay. You enjoy that. Yeah, I do. Golf tournament, um- Y- you know what?
42:12
I don't, it's not that I want the guy to lose, I just don't like watching him win. [laughs] Okay. Do you know what happens when you don't win? Uh, Andrew Novak is your leader at the 3M Open. Yeah. That's in Minnesota.
42:22
He's nine under. He shot the, he sh- three under through 13 today. He has a one stroke lead over Matt NeSmith, who is five under for the day, eight under for the tournament. Uh, and Jacob Bridgeman is also one shot back.
42:33
Jacob Bridgeman was the first round leader. Do any of y'all have Jacob Bridgeman shooting a 63 yesterday? Ew, no. No? Jacob Bridgeman, no relation to former Milwaukee Buck Junior Bridgeman,
42:43
who apparently made millions upon millions of dollars after his NBA career.
42:46
Was, was listening to Jacob Bridgeman speak after his round yesterday too, and, uh, man, these flights are still an issue, uh, for people around the country. I, I, I guess I wasn't aware of that.
42:56
Like, that's terrible it's still happening. His, his... Well, okay, his caddy had to drive his clubs up from Sacramento, and they're in Minneapolis. [laughs] From Sacramento.
43:09
From Sacramento, and then there was something about, like, a pu- like the, him needing his backup putter. You always love hearing these stories. You got, like, first round leader bets, and it's the guy- Yeah...
43:18
"Oh, yeah, it's my putter from college, and I haven't used it, like, in five years." That wa- that was the story with Jacob Bridgeman yesterday. The putter looking good.
43:25
Well, he had, he has not, he has not- Eight birdies on his round yesterday. Yeah, he's not teed off today. He's just chilling out- Yeah... under one back now. Your guys have not teed off either, right? Your guys meaning?
43:34
