This is You Better You Bet with Nick Costos, Femi Abeefay, and the crew, presented by BetMGM.

0:09.2

All right, we'll get to college football in a second, but just to wrap up the preseason takeaways from week one.

0:14.0

Only two games left.

0:16.2

Dolphins and bears.

0:17.4

Actually, I think this is something that might matter a little bit.

0:19.5

Now, the dolphin is short-yardage woes continue. First drive of the game. They possessed the ball for like 13 minutes, like literally. Almost the entire first quarter, a game ended in the tie, which is funny. They get down first and goal. They run a bunch of running plays, including fourth in goal, and they get stuffed at the goal line.

Just continuing the short yardage malaise and disaster from last year.

Alexander Madison was thought to be Miami's short yardage and goal lineback with Rahim Mostard now in Las Vegas with the Raiders.

1:18.7

And as for Chicago, I think what's happening right now with their skill position group is interesting.

1:25.9

Luther Burden is absolutely electric with the ball in his hands.

1:30.7

We saw that at Missouri.

1:32.3

Ben Johnson said after the game and said this weekend that he brought up burden

1:37.0

being electric with the ball in his hands, but that burden is not there yet from a

1:41.0

procedural standpoint, like knowing what he needs to do pre-snap,

1:44.7
