So make sure you're taking notes, get out the notepad, whether you're old school, still ride them down, or you type them in the phone, whatever you've got to do. Take some notes. Lee Cincinnati used it. We start with a game that's nearest and dearest to my heart, so we'll just kick off with Houston kicking off big 12 play at Cincinnati Saturday morning against the Bearcats. Bearcats are giving three points in this game. What do you make of this big 12 rivalry? He never thought we'd be saying that. But I don't know if you guys ever, when you're looking up something, when you're looking up when it's based on conferences, find yourself looking in the wrong conference, you guys do that? No, not me. Never, Lee, never do that. I don't make mistakes like that. I love the big 12, Lee. All right. Well, I'm still doing it from time to time. So that's been a problem for me. But this Houston team is going to have to play better if they want to have a chance to win some games. If not real consistent, Cincinnati, for the first time, look like they are starting to turn things around here. I know Houston played well last week, probably the best. But Cincinnati had a pretty clean game. Only one turnover. Their quarterback finally getting some good quarterback play. Their top running back receiver had big games. Henderson, the receiver, 10 patches from almost 150 yards. He might be a tough matchup here for Houston. I just think that maybe right now, Cincinnati is a year ahead of Houston. That new 3-4 defense is going to have to create some turnovers that want to have a chance. I like Cincinnati here, 28-20. Lee, we were just talking some Aggies football. We know we got some quarterback issues going on there. And Wigman doesn't look like he's going to be the guy for this game against Bowling Green. But they're heavily favored. How do you see this one playing out? Yeah, Bowling Green. I mean, what they did when they played, went up to play Penn State, certainly was an absolute shocker. So I think Texas A&M is for a win. And their defensive front was dominant in the game against Florida. But if there is heavy run as they were in the last game, it's going to be tough to really stretch out and win some games by wide margins. So Bowling Green, they just eat a lot of clock. They're going to take their time here. Texas A&M looks like for the meantime, if the Wigman gets back, they're going to be more of a running team. And I think they'll win a lot of games. But the problem is you really want to lay that kind of wood here. And we're talking about 23 points against the team. That might be one of the top 2-3 in the back here. I had Texas A&M win in this game, something like 38-21. But I'll take the 23 point here in Bowling Green. Oklahoma, Tennessee, SEC rivalry here in this one. A lot of people think the Sooners are frauds. The Vols are giving up seven points. How do you see this SEC thriller shaping up? Yeah, the look ahead line before Tennessee won, '71, not from last week with three points. So the line is jumped four points. It really is no value at all. If Tennessee was at home, I'd probably lay 10 or 14 points. I don't think Oklahoma is great. But this will be Niko's first start on the road. He's had two neutral site games. He had that Iowa bowl game. And then the neutral site game this year against Tennessee State and then two home games. The two games that the Vols played on the road against ranked opponents last year, they lost by 14 to Alabama. And 29 to Missouri. Josh Hypele gets to come back, play against his old school, again, where he won a national title, where he coached. And I think I'll have his team ready here. But I think he's got two DBs, two cornerbacks that might get exposed here and tough to win in conference on the road, especially laying seven points here. I'm going to call for the upset. Wrong team favorite. Oklahoma outright 30 to 28 over Tennessee. Let's shift some gears. Lee, let's get to the NFL. Let's look at a tale of two different cities, a Buffalo team that much to the surprise of many look like a team that is still going to be a contender for the Super Bowl. Josh Allen is doing with his legs, with his arm. They're playing great football on the flip side. The Jaguars, one of those three teams in the Texans divisions that don't have a win, that don't look anything like they might have been rated preseason. How do you see Buffalo and Jacksonville? On paper, Jacksonville should be much, much better. I mean, they played a Brown team last week that had 100 yards in penalties, was two for 14, a third down. If you just looked at those two stats, you're like, oh, they're going to win the game here. They still manage to lose that game. And Buffalo's looking for revenge. They lost last year to Jack, about 25, 20. The game actually occurred in England. The Jack's home away from home here. But Buffalo right now, you've got to love that offense, the way they're hitting on all cylinders, running in, throwing the football in Jackville. Something is missing. I like Buffalo here, 30 to 20. Houston Texans put their undefeated record on the line going to Minnesota, also undefeated record on the line. Texans are a road favorite. Road favorites in the NFL always scary. How do you see it go on Sunday for the Texans? So I actually think that the Texans are probably one of the top five teams in the NFL. I think they are the team that can give kids city the most trouble. Why if they can settle and get your mixing back and healthy, then they're going to be a really tough out. The defense, the pass rush, I mean, people say everyone's all over Chicago. But the 37 dropbacks, they either sacked Williams. They either hit him or hurried him. 36 of the 37 dropbacks, which is incredible. I love their linebackers. They may not be the right fit for another team, but the way that they can move and make plays in space, I think that they fit in perfectly with this team here. The only problem here is Sam Donald. Remember, he played last week against San Francisco. Where did he play last year? San Francisco, he knew the defense. He knows DeMico Ryan, who was there before. He knows DeMico Ryan's defense, and looks like Justin Jefferson will play in this game. And I think there's a better than 50% chance that Jordan Addison plays also. So, Tim Donald may not be the long-term answer, but a couple of years ago, in 2001, he did start the Carolina Panthers three and 0 straight up and against the spread. So, he potentially ended up getting pulled for PJ Walker and Cam Newton. But, I think right now, this is probably the best football he's ever played here. Hate to say it, guys. Even though you're a top five team, I think Minnesota pulls you up to set 23-20. - Ouch, Lee, now I want to let you know, there's a lot of extra pressure on you this week, because our producer, B-Mac, is going once again to a casino where he is going to be able to rely on you to pay his rent. - Okay. - You've already paid his rent once. Are you going to be able to do it again? And I think other people are wondering, how can Lee do the same for me? Tell everybody how they get involved with you. You got a free play for him and other things going on. - Yeah, the free play is gonna be the Texas UL Monroe game. If anyone wants to get that game for free, let's give it to the first five callers. All they need to do is call 800-400-9741. First five calls, Lee, Texas, and UL Monroe on me. And this is a promotion I get the most emails and calls and DM's from people. It's a world-famous Baker's dozen. 13 games, Saturday and Sunday, just $97. And we've had some 12-in-1, never gone 13-0. We've had some 12-in-1, 11-in-2, and 10-in-3 records on this promotion. And I feel so sure I'm gonna produce a winning record. I've never done this, and I think we've done this by 20, 25 times Baker's dozen. If I don't produce a winning record, next week will be free. So, world-famous Baker's dozen, 13 games, $97. So, I've been throwing baseball through Sunday. We're on a 17-in-5, running baseball. We're up over 600 units in baseball this season. So, everything, we've got, through Sunday, $97. And we're guaranteeing we're gonna have a winning card in the football on the 13 games. How do you get it? Just one place, ParamountSports.com. Man, talk about it. Dale, you care about the people, Lee? We love it, we love it. I know if I win for them, they're gonna wanna come on and baseball through the World Series. Football, they're gonna join for a month of the rest of the season. So, all I can tell them is don't count on getting the free week. There you go, that's perfect. That's great. Fired up, Lee, he's ready to go. He's got his pocket full of cash. We appreciate it, appreciate it, Lee. Haven't that had that winning week? We'll talk to you next week. Lee's starting. Lee's ready to go to his next city. At least Sterling, ParamountSports, joining us, but he's been on fire. He's been on fire to the start of this weekend.
