CrimsonCASH - Week 12 Nov 13, 2025

Show notes

Scott and James are back for Week 12 of Crimson Cash, where they navigate a world without song-for-team music beds thanks to a little thing called "copyright infringement." Apparently, a meme corn song was just too good (or too protected) for Spotify and YouTube. Now, they're on the hunt for royalty-free music—or maybe just some AI slop or animal noises—to save the day.

Join them as they dive into the Big 10 slate, discuss the implications of USC being in the Big 10 title hunt against Indiana, and—most importantly—celebrate Indiana being a HUGE favorite against Wisconsin. James also throws down an epic, yet terrifying, "Hooiser Hot Streak" bet: IU to win by shutout at +300 odds. Plus, Keegan keeps his Slice of the Pie streak alive with some classic cheesesticks! Get ready for a quiet show... or maybe some really loud animals!

Show notes

Join Scott and James for Week 10 of CrimsonCASH! James somehow managed to turn $172 in free bets into over $300, proving once again that he's either a betting genius or just incredibly lucky (he's probably just lucky). Scott, meanwhile, is still mixing up his zeros when talking about odds, but at least he's not betting on 18-inning baseball games.

This week, they tackle the "game of the year that isn't," marvel at Michigan's "Mr. Bright Side" obsession, and debate whether Indiana is truly number two in the country. Plus, Keegan has moved on from pizza to zero-sugar Snapple peach tea, proving that even college kids appreciate a good deal.
