Description: Griffin Warner and Big East Ben talk college football week 11 from a betting perspective. Ben and Griffin both give out best bets. 0:06 - 0:31 (Speaker 3): A coach emphasizes aggression, urging players to "out-block, out-tackle, and out-hustle" their opponents with a "no doubt" mentality. 0:31 - 1:26 (Griffin Warner): Hosting the podcast, Griffin recounts his recent betting successes, standing at 6-4 on best bets for the season, and aims to continue his positive streak. 1:28 - 2:41 (Big East Ben): Ben reflects on a tough week, expressing regret over betting on Nebraska, who struggled against UCLA. He notes Nebraska's failure to perform, underscoring a pattern of poor choices leading him to cautiously optimistic takes for future games. 2:54 - 4:16 (Griffin Warner): Griffin observes that as the college season progresses, certain matchups stand out as "easy" bets, although betting inherently carries risk. He mentions the public’s heavy backing of teams like Nebraska and Pitt, noting that such bets often flop, highlighting a need for caution in popular picks. 5:06 - 6:32 (Griffin Warner): Shifting to Florida vs. Texas, Griffin shares insights on Florida’s underdog status (+21.5) against a Texas team. While Texas has a strong defense, recent close games (such as their three-point win over Vanderbilt) suggest a potential vulnerability. Warner leans towards Florida covering the spread, citing Texas’s inconsistent performances. 6:48 - 7:47 (Big East Ben): Ben elaborates on Florida’s momentum, noting their five-game streak of covering the spread, including a close game against Georgia. He believes Florida’s recent form makes them a good bet to cover against Texas, adding that the team’s underdog status adds value. 7:48 - 9:12 (Griffin Warner): Griffin backs Ben’s optimism on Florida, acknowledging Texas’s tendency to play close games despite their top ranking. He adds that the 11:00 a.m. kickoff in Austin could impact Texas’s fan turnout, making the underdog Florida bet appealing. 9:14 - 10:08 (Big East Ben): Transitioning to Georgia at Ole Miss, Ben is surprised by Georgia's narrow favorite status (-2.5). He highlights Georgia's weak track record against the spread (2-6), indicating this matchup could result in a high-scoring game, so he leans towards betting the over (55). 10:09 - 11:43 (Griffin Warner): Griffin echoes caution with Georgia, noting that they often struggle away from home. He advocates waiting on the spread, as odds could shift with public betting, favoring a wait-and-see approach for a potential value bet. 11:45 - 13:06 (Big East Ben): For Vanderbilt vs. South Carolina, Ben sees a "letdown spot" for South Carolina, who recently bested Texas A&M. He praises Vanderbilt’s disciplined gameplay and suggests they could surprise South Carolina, proposing Vanderbilt +3.5 as a solid pick. 13:06 - 14:00 (Griffin Warner): Griffin supports Ben's Vanderbilt pick, attributing their steadiness to a lack of turnovers. He suggests Vanderbilt could capitalize on South Carolina’s post-victory vulnerability, recommending +3.5 for Vanderbilt. 14:01 - 15:53 (Big East Ben and Griffin Warner): The duo discusses Colorado’s game at Texas Tech, with Ben recalling Colorado’s consistent recent form. He highlights their playoff aspirations and ability to win on the road, favoring Colorado to cover the -3.5 spread. 15:53 - 17:43 (Griffin Warner): Griffin, however, is skeptical about Colorado’s spread value, suggesting that while Colorado may cover, he sees potential in betting the over (63) given Texas Tech’s weak defense. 17:43 - 20:10 (Big East Ben and Griffin Warner): Looking to Alabama vs. LSU, they agree this game will be tightly contested. Ben highlights LSU’s home-field advantage, and they both advocate for betting on LSU to cover the three-point spread (+3) in a challenging night game. Learn more about your ad choices.
