Saints review at bye, Daniels for Heisman? Watch Bayou Bets

This whole up-one-week, down-the-next kind of season is getting mighty old for fans of the New Orleans Saints, but is it really all that much different than we discussed way back in August? And what can change when the team comes back from its bye week in 10 days at Atlanta?

Does Jayden Daniels have a legitimate shot at the Heisman Trophy, and will LSU coach Brian Kelly play him longer than he needs to against a Georgia State team the Tigers are favored by 32 against? What about Tulane, and why have they had such a hard time putting away opponents they are favored by 15 and 20 points or more?

Those are the top topics for host Jim Derry and Sports Betting Director Thomas Casale on Thursday’s “Bayou Bets” show, which aired on all of our social media channels. Lastly, Jim and Thomas talk about the top three college football and NFL games of Week 11 before Spencer “The Guru” Urquhart and Gabe Henderson offer their top five picks of the week on Big Buck$. Oh, and which one of the Bet.NOLA.com crew is the “Turkey of the Week?”

“Bayou Bets” is sponsored by Caesars Sportsbook, official odds partner of The Times-Picayune and The Advocate and airs live at 4 p.m. every Monday and Thursday on the Bayou Bets YouTube channel (among other NOLA.com social media channels) and can be viewed on demand there anytime.
