.The countdown to university volleyball time is on.Week 0 starts with a handful of games on Sunday, Aug. 24. Even though our team're still a handful of full weeks off of kickoff, "Bear Bets" returned to examine the 2024 time. Chris "The Bear" Fallica and also Geoff Schwartz were actually joined through Brett Ciancia of Select 6 Examines. They discussed their favorite gain complete wagers, Heisman long shots and also more.Let's dive into the enjoyable. Let's look at some gain overalls. How do you feel about Colorado's 5.5-win total amount for 2024? Schwartz: Forecasting Colorado to go 6-6, but don't feel sturdy in any case" I don't really feel good enough to wager on their Over given that they have not shown it. They can not be even worse on protection. They added pair of defensive linemen-- which I like-- in the gateway. But that's it, two protective electrician I such as in the site. They have a whole new offensive collection along with a true freshman left behind handle, who may be actually excellent. He's a five-star youngster, however commonly it takes a little of your time." Will Colorado, Deion Sanders excel their return to the Big-12 seminar? Are there every other win overalls you like in the brand-new Large 12? The Bear: Arizona Under 8" You've obtained a brand-new organization. You have actually got a new team. Yeah, Noah Fifita as well as McMillan are actually back, but what occurs if something happens to McMillan? Perform they have anybody else at pass receiver that can improve as well as pack that gap? They were actually thus deeper upfront on the defensive line in 2013, however each of that depth is actually gone." There are 4 crews signing up with the Big Ten this season. Exist any kind of succeed overall bets you like concerning the four newbies in the conference?The Bear: UCLA Under 5.5" It is actually odd because that line opened at six at some books. It's today down to 4.5 at other areas." Schwartz: UCLA Under 5.5" Their lineup now merely needs a ton of job. It only requires job and also's what takes place when Chip Kelly left at an unusual opportunity." Schwartz: Adjusted Washington Under 6.5" Out of 44 players on Washington's deepness chart from the Sugar Bowl, the number of does Washington possess returning this time? 3! That's it. ... The crew has nobody coming from their group last period." How about among the various other crews in the Big 10. Exist any type of win total amounts you like there?Ciancia: Iowa Over 7.5 victories (it falls to 8.5 right now)" I adore their defense. This year, they stood up for a lot of their ability coming from moving or going pro along with their NIL, so they took almost everyone back. ... If they can easily acquire any remodeling coming from their offense in all, this crew can easily win 9 or even 10 video games." Schwartz: Rutgers Scarlett Knights Over 6 victories" Schedule issues, right? The identified top-five staffs in the Big 10-- Michigan, Oregon, Ohio Condition, Penn Condition and also Iowa-- Rutgers participates in none of them. Three of those five groups were accountable for one-half of their losses final period. They possess a ton of NFL-caliber protective players coming back too." Exist any sort of gain total wagers you like in the SEC?The Bear: Arkansas Under 5.5. Would certainly choose Under 4.5 at the same time" They bottomed out last year. They just appeared like a defeated staff. ... If you go down that schedule, beyond the game versus Arkansas Pine Pretense, there isn't a video game on that routine that states that that's a win." Everybody adores a really good longshot bet on the Heisman. Are there any sort of longshot wagers you possess created on the honor therefore far?The Bear: Ohio Condition QB Julian Sayin (100-1), Colorado WR/CB Travis Seeker (65-1), Ohio State WR Jeremiah Johnson (150-1)" Is actually Sayin heading to succeed the project? Possibly, perhaps not. I obtain the feeling that Ohio State is mosting likely to go with Can Howard at the start of the year. We'll find where they are due to the opportunity the pork of the routine appears later on in the year considering that I presume Sayin is very proficient. " I believe Smith is an overall addict as well as I believe he has a chance to be incredibly, extremely exclusive. I have actually heard folks who have actually seen him at Ohio State state he might start for staffs in the NFL at the moment and also be actually a top-10 or even 5 selection." Schwartz: Arizona WR Tetairoa McMillan (+15000 sometimes of wager)" He had over 1,400 gardens in 2015 and also 10 goals. Allow's simply say Arizona participates in effectively this period. DeVonta Smith possessed about 1,550 backyards and also about 17 touchdowns in the routine season when he succeeded the Heisman. So he would certainly need to have four, 5 additional goals and also 400 even more lawns to truly attract attention. That thinks doable. Arizona's got ta go 10-2, however. Looking at label competitors, would you bank on a prop that Ohio State or Georgia gains the championship game over the field?Ciancia: Take Ohio State and Georgia versus the industry" When you take a look at secondary school recruiting, it is actually No. 1 as well as 2 in the country. It is actually going to be actually the title of high-grade deepness. As well as when you look at certainly not simply the secondary school recruiting yet the 2025 simulated agreement mock draft, they are No. 1 and 2." CFB Sneak Peek: Ohio State and Georgia or the industry? The Bear: Take Ohio State and Georgia versus the area" If you mention Oregon as well as Texas are both groups that can possibly gain the headline beyond Ohio State and Georgia, if they're certainly not the association champ, they've come to participate in 3 video games just to come to the ultimate. ... While our company believe Texas and also Oregon are actually that great, are you heading to have the capacity to play two games and afterwards trump Ohio State or even Georgia in the semifinal and afterwards defeat Ohio State or even Georgia once again in the headline activity? I assume it creates it a quite challenging recommendation for any person outside those 2 teams." Ole Miss may be CFP darkhorse applicant Any unpleasant surprise groups that you believe could possibly create a run?Ciancia: Ole Miss (-130 to create CFP, +650 to win SEC, +1500 to gain national label)" Street Kiffin has actually contacted himself the portal king. He's undoubtedly backed it up along with three straight, top 2 training class in the last 3 cycles. Therefore, 17 4- and fine players are actually being available in to supplement this roster."
