Things we can learn from the video

Press to jump

  1. 20:13All three choose Missouri with the points against Ole Miss.
  2. 35:25Lewan backs Notre Dame to cover; Pate chooses a lower-scoring game, with Compton also switching to the under.
  3. 42:02Lewan and Pate take Kentucky with the points against Oklahoma.
  4. 46:43Compton takes Oklahoma to cover, defending its defense despite the team's offensive struggles.
  5. 51:13The crew questions Arch Manning's play and Steve Sarkisian's quarterback plans after Florida-Texas.
  6. 57:05Alabama-Tennessee reaches the desk; Compton chooses the under rather than either team.

Will Compton isn't ready to give up on Oklahoma's defense, even with its offense struggling. Across the Bussin' With The Boys desk, Taylor Lewan and guest analyst Josh Pate land on Kentucky, turning one college football matchup into a clear difference of opinion.

Their Week 7 edition of The Locker Room CFB drew roughly 75,000 views in its first day, about twelve times the channel's usual opening for longer videos. The episode carries paid sponsorships and centers on game predictions and betting analysis.

The Kentucky discussion captures how differently the trio can read the same game. Lewan and Pate take the Wildcats with the points; Compton chooses Oklahoma to cover. In the comments, one viewer makes the counterargument that Kentucky deserves more credit for winning, while questioning whether Oklahoma can score enough.

Compton is more movable elsewhere. During Notre Dame-BYU, he initially considers Notre Dame covering before switching to a lower-scoring game after the defensive discussion. Pate also chooses the under, while Lewan sticks with Notre Dame.

There are interruptions beyond football. A masked crew member jumps out during the early Nebraska discussion, startling the desk, and Pate has to defend his definition of rain when Compton revisits an earlier weather prediction.

For viewers trying to find a particular matchup, navigation becomes its own talking point: several comments request timestamps or topic graphics. The episode's description now lists chapters, placing Kentucky-Oklahoma at 42:10 and the title's Ohio State-Indiana discussion at 1:06:29.

  • Can we please get some sort of graphics on screen for the different topics if you’re not going to do timestamps? I’m sure there’s plenty of times people would like to hear your takes on a certain subject but don’t have an hour or more.
