The Mac and Mounger Show: Preseason Storylines

Jack McCauley and Luke Mounger are back at it again with their second installment of The Mac and Mounger Show. This week, they each pick two storylines that have developed over the course of fall camp that they are eager to monitor as the season progresses.  Afterwards, they debut their three "gimmicky" segments that they will be gifting their listeners each week. The first of which is Bets to Bark. Normally, Jack and Luke will pick one player from each side of the ball that they expect to stand out for the upcoming game. With no game scheduled for this weekend, they each select a player they expect to have a breakout type season on offense and defense. Jack and Luke were on a similar wave length for their selected defensive standouts; however, their choices on offense inspired some debate over a position group with a wealth of options that is in need of someone to separate themselves from the pack.  Next, they kick off their "Betting B1G" portion. Normally, each former intern will pick three of their favorite bets across B1G play for the week; however, with this being Week 0, they instead make three Win Total plays for the year. Jack and Luke will be tracking their Betting B1G performance throughout the year. The loser will be held accountable in a way that is still to be determined and will be announced in next week's episode. Please do not let Kim Grinolds suggest the punishment. Lastly, the duo rolls out the Confidence Interval segment. This will typically be a period of the show where Jack and Luke put a numeric value to their confidence the Huskies will will their upcoming game on a scale of 1-10. This week, they both use that same scale to define their confidence level that Washington will exceed its 7.5 win total that many sports books are forecasting for the Dawgs.
