A Numbers Game | September 9, 2026 | Hour 3

SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

Hey, folks, it's Tim Murray, and here we are. College football season, long Saturdays ahead, and staying locked in for an entire day of football takes a little bit more than coffee. Loreen's new pouch is built exactly for that, without the nicotine. It works just like the pouches you've seen before. Tuck one in and go about your day. Each has 50 milligrams of caffeine, about half a cup of coffee, plus L-theanine and Alpha GPC for smooth, steady focus with no crash. And because it's Loreen, it's also got nano-hydroxyapatite, the mineral your teeth are made of. So it gives your daily enamel support in between brushings. It's smooth energy without the jitters, and it comes in mint, cinnamon, and mango, all nicotine free. I love the cinnamon. Give Loreen a try.

Right now, Loreen is offering our listeners up to 50% off at byloreen.com/college.

That's byloreen, larine.com/college for up to 50% off.

The numbers told the story, they always do.

SPEAKER_1 (1:15)

It's one of those idiots who believe in analytics. This is a Numbers Game with Gill Alexander on VSiN.

Gill Alexander already mumbling over the intro. It is the star of Wishnev Wednesdays, the star of the Beating the Book Megapod, the star of the Showtime docu-series action, Todd Wishnev in the flesh. A lot of flesh, by the way. Tony, how are you doing, man? At T. Wishnev, by the way, on Twitter for everybody.

Todd Wishnev (1:49)

So I was trying to find some shaded courts because so yesterday I come into Las Vegas and Gill's like, what do you want to play right now?

And I said, and he goes, are you sure you're going to be OK in the heat? I'm like, I've been playing tennis all summer in Pittsburgh. Are you going to be OK? So we start playing and the score is six zero three zero. And my good friend here to my right is practically dying. So I just said, OK, look, we should we should continue tomorrow because you're just not going to make it. So it's funny that he was concerned about my well-being, whereas he was the one who since this is a betting show.

Gill Alexander (2:26)

If you delved into the box score, what you would see, though, a guy that has played thousands of tennis matches this summer. I have played none. The fact that I got to deuce more than 50 percent of the time, you didn't get to do really should really should tell betters.

Kelley Bylon (2:40)

He didn't get to do the better.

Gill Alexander (2:42)

The better athlete is going to win. OK, already you're interrupting me. Why did I look because you're inaccurate? I'm going to let you talk for 90 seconds straight, but you can't let me say anything inaccurate. I can't do it.

I can't do it. This is this is not a podcast.

Todd Wishnev (2:55)

This is not a radio. You better bring your jug of water because it's going to be hot out there today.

Gill Alexander (2:59)

Next thing you're going to tell me. I don't know when Russia should eyes. And that's a whole nother subject.

Todd Wishnev (3:04)

Anyway, football, football, the National Football League. Who's excited? I heard Willie Hill is very excited. You asked him, what does he get most excited about as an adult? And I was like, whoa, slow down, Willie. This is a family show, sports related, sports related. But I couldn't agree with him more. I mean, college football starting was so exciting, even though I'm doing poorly so far. But it's just so fun to have it back. And Sonny Cumbie kicking field goals up 77 to three brought that up with seven minutes to go.

Sonny, what are you doing? You're supposed to run the ball into the line and give it back to them. These college coaches, man, it's 77 to three, brother.

Gill Alexander (3:45)

Zero class.

Todd Wishnev (3:46)

I had under 83 and a half and under 86 and a half. So he kicks the field goal to go up 80 to three. And the other team, Northwestern State, drives down and kicks a field goal to go 80 to six. So I end up winning the under 86 and a half. But on Discord, I put up the part that was the under 83 and a half. So I end up losing that.

Gill Alexander (4:03)

Can I give you, for those who are just tuning in, who have no idea who you are despite the intro, is your, you are, he's the man that had 187 unit college basketball season, despite some haters trying to disparage him about it and act like he didn't do it. Is the Discord going to be open for football season?
