On the Friday show, Matt Russell (@mrussauthentic on X) breaks down an important Thursday-nighter between the Packers and Lions and why it should have been at least a push for all those betting a side in the game. Meanwhile, the best bet - Over 51.5 - cashes easily for the “Panes.”
Matt looks at the betting market heading into the game with the line dropping from Detroit -5.5 to -3.25. What that all means, and how to evaluate the move after the fact given the game landed on Lions by three.
Then it’s the secret, FANT-astic, podcast-only plays for the NFL this Sunday, and a look at the College Football Playoff Committee’s decision to shoehorn Alabama into the CFP and why SMU should be worried that it might not just be “for now” if they lose to Clemson Saturday.
Lastly, Matt explains why Oregon’s path to a National Championship as a potential 5-seed informs why he’s trying to shoot for a middle in the Big Ten title game.
It’s time to head to THE WINDOW, let’s go!
