brought to by our friends over at Fanduel.

0:22.4

We got the Bysol hold going on today and getting us kicked off here.

0:25.2

In part three, we got Rudy wasn't off sides.

0:29.2

I'll go ahead and read these trips because he's asking these from a gambling perspective,

0:32.4

and you're better suited to answer those questions than Iowa.

0:35.3

So we'll go one at a time.

0:36.9

Bicea hold each one is what he wanted. So number one, from Rudy wasn't off-size, which by the way, I love that name also. That's the pushback against the people that always have that. Oh, Rudy's off-size. Number one, CJ Carr wins the Heisman trophy. From a gambling perspective, I would buy it. I'd put money on it. Right now, Fandul has him at plus 800 odds tied for first with Archmanning. And so it would be worth it, I think in my eyes. So I think it, depending, I mean, it all comes down to how much you're willing to put down on it. But I think those odds would be worth it. Yeah. So number two, from a gambling standpoint, Notre Dame wins the national championship. I mean, again, maybe this is just some of my bias coming out. But if we're talking strictly from a betting standpoint, I would also buy this as well. They're second behind Ohio State. Ohio State's at plus 600 odds. Notre Dame's at plus 700 odds on Fan duel.

1:28.5

So this would be something, and spoiler alert, I have already placed a bet on this.

1:33.8

So yeah, I would buy this one as well.

1:36.4

And then number three, from a gambling perspective, so this is basically betting on the over of the 11.

1:43.6

and a half over, correct, Trev?

1:45.3

Notre Dame goes 12.0.

1:49.6

Because of the odds, and I don't love the odds, it's at plus 160 right now.

1:54.1

I would sell this.

1:55.5

Now, on this show, I've talked before how I think Notre Dame has the opportunity to go undefeated.

2:00.7

But to put this in terms for our non-betters, it's at plus 160 right now. So if I put $10 on Notre Dame to go undefeated, I would win $16. So odds-wise, it's just not worth it. And going undefeated is very, very difficult. And so I actually sell this one, even though this is the one that I think is the most likely of the three.

2:19.3

But the reason why it's the most likely of the three is the reason because the odds are so low.

2:27.4

Like there's a reason why Notre Dame winning a national championship is plus 700, but them going undefeated is plus 160.

2:32.7

So that's where I'm at from a gambling perspective.

2:35.5

So let me ask you this question, Treve. Let's say the odds were the same. And I gave you a
