Saints' remaining needs, LSU baseball drops to No. 2, NBA playoff picks on 'Bayou Bets'

The sports world might seem like it's headed for a slow part of the calendar, but there was still plenty to discuss on Monday's live edition of "Bayou Bets," the sports betting show for Louisiana on Bet.NOLA.com.

Hosts Zach Ewing and Jim Derry discussed the New Orleans Saints' remaining needs after the NFL draft; how LSU's baseball team fell to No. 2 in the national rankings for the first time this season but are still No. 1 in national title odds; and their frustrations and picks for the NBA playoffs.

Jim also detailed his big payday from the Kentucky Derby — beginner's luck, or is he a horse racing expert? — and the crew examined how MLB odds had changed about five weeks into the long season.

As with every Monday, there was a poll question, this time about Saints' draft picks.

The show is sponsored by Caesars Sportsbook, official odds partner of The Advocate and Times-Picayune, and airs live at 4 p.m. every Monday and Thursday on the Bayou Bets YouTube channel.
