A little bit of news 18 00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:18.040 came out that for the first time since nineteen oh five, the race won't 19 00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:23.719 finish in Paris, actually won't even won't even go through the French capital at 20 00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:27.879 all during the twenty three day event. Why Olympics, Olypics. Oh, 21 00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:32.879 okay, silly me. Yeah, it came out last night. I think 22 00:01:32.879 --> 00:01:36.239 that was. They just finished the courses twenty three days, so that's that's 23 00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:41.200 insane. Yeah, long race, which is just the stages, all the 24 00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:47.640 stages of Okay, switch over to NBA. A little bit of news about 25 00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:53.280 some possible expansions in the future. Seattle is one of the destinations of course, 26 00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:56.200 or the NBA. For the NBA. Did I not say NBA? 27 00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:59.480 You did not say, okay, for the NBA, so we got Seattle 28 00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:04.159 is one of the play We had the SuperSonics and they've been waiting for a 29 00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:06.840 team again for long. They lost their team and then like, wait, 30 00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:09.199 what we want another one like you? No, you don't get another one. 31 00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:14.280 If you look, you should, they should automatically disqualify you. Although 32 00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:19.560 what the Rams went to the Rams were Saint Louis went to La back to 33 00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:23.000 Saint Louis. Yeah, you know in football NFL. Yeah, in back 34 00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:28.159 to LA and then back town. Yeah, yeah, that's right, back 35 00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:30.599 and forth. So they have they haven't had a team there since two thousand 36 00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:37.120 and eight. Definitely a good possibility for another team someday. Las Vegas also 37 00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:42.560 another possible destination that's growing. Obviously, they had the Raiders go there not 38 00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:46.479 too long ago. They had the Golden Knights as an expansion hockey team. 39 00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:52.560 I think in eighteen h They've done really well for Las Vegas. And then 40 00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:54.800 Mexico. Mexico City is the other third son one surprises me a little bit. 41 00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:59.000 Yeah, I think eventually they're going to go there eventions, you know, 42 00:02:59.240 --> 00:03:00.199 I mean, you know, I mean, I guess you got Toronto. 43 00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:02.479 But at least you know, Toronto's right on the border. It's not 44 00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:07.000 far. Mexico City is far. You know that. That's not that's a 45 00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:15.039 long way to go. So that that's you put it in a Gallus Okay, 46 00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:19.360 Irmoe, which is actually a big city. Now, it's only like 47 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:23.680 that's like a five hour drive from Tucson. Oh God, where do you 48 00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:30.280 come up with this? My mind just works that way, Steed. I'm 49 00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:35.560 budging that out. Okay, I think I personally think Seattle will probably get 50 00:03:35.560 --> 00:03:39.120 a team again. I would think Vegas would be the first time. Vegas 51 00:03:39.159 --> 00:03:43.240 first, they got a great arena. Years ago, they were thinking this 52 00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:47.520 will never never have a pro team here, because we do. That's now 53 00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:53.120 everybody's getting gambling. They see that they're actually knocking down the Tropicana. I 54 00:03:53.159 --> 00:04:00.199 mean, you're actually taking it down as we speak. That's crazy. I'll 55 00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:03.599 stay I know, right there on our on our corner where the MGM Grand 56 00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:13.439 the New York the Caliber Park what ex Calibers on the other side, and 57 00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:16.319 then the drop for the four corner right the corners. But then U T 58 00:04:16.480 --> 00:04:20.279 Mobile, the place where we stay at Park Park Gym, park M Gym. 59 00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:26.480 Yeah yeah, Well, speaking of food, are we speaking of food? 60 00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:32.360 Okay?

Yeah, you got the women's softball 125 00:08:54.840 --> 00:09:00.559 team real quickly. You said fifteenth. I think yeah they were. They 126 00:09:00.600 --> 00:09:05.360 finished fifteenth in the pole for the n FC. Well, right, so 127 00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:07.240 that's at the end of the day. Fifteenth in the polls is not too 128 00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:13.919 bad. We're talking about the Cup, the what's called the rankings, the 129 00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:16.919 Director's Cup. So so they're forty ninth right now, right, they're going 130 00:09:16.919 --> 00:09:22.799 to They were forty ninth for the Spring sports right now before the No, 131 00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:24.600 but I mean, I think that just encompasses the springs. Yeah, yeah, 132 00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:28.039 wait until they have until yeah, the baseball, they'll do the final 133 00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:31.559 standing once the College World Series, one real quick one. The Holiday Bowl. 134 00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:35.000 Finally, finally, finally, you're gonna play it at the new stadium 135 00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:39.799 in San Diego instead of Petco Park, which is like, yeah, why 136 00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:43.519 didn't it move there immediately? Instead of playing it at a baseball you went 137 00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:46.559 to the San Diego game, right, Yeah, yeah, we did the 138 00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:50.320 del Mar thing. Yeah, the great Arizona that's perfect for Arizona. Yeah, 139 00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:54.559 for Tucson. Yeah, yeah, it's a great snap Dragon stity, 140 00:09:54.639 --> 00:09:58.799 snap Dragon Stadium. It's a great venue, brand new, a lot of 141 00:09:58.799 --> 00:10:01.960 great bars in there, just the right size, it's the perfect size. 142 00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:05.240 It's a great place for the Holiday Bowl. I just don't understand what took 143 00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:09.519 so long for them to move the Holiday Bowl there, But Breg McMurphy reported 144 00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:11.440 that on Twitter today. So all right, let's take our next break, 145 00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:15.480 we're gonna come back. We're gonna talk some more golf with Don Pooley. 146 00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:20.440 They'll be joining us. We're good. And so it's four ten after it's 147 00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:24.360 get no, no, no, let's go because it's four ten. We'll 148 00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.080 come back at four fifteen. Probably how he thinks, well, he's not 149 00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:33.000 expecting us till seventeen seventeen. Let's let's get So I thought I thought we 150 00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:35.840 were done here. So I was looking as I was looking at the clock 151 00:10:35.879 --> 00:10:37.039 up there in my bad Well, anyways, so let'slet's go back to that. 152 00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:41.240 Then. You know, the Holidy Bowl, it seems like it's been 153 00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:46.399 just managed really poorly over the last you know, a few years. They 154 00:10:46.440 --> 00:10:50.679 had that thing with UCLA all that stuff. Why they've continued to play it 155 00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:54.919 at Petco Park, I'll never understand. For the same reason I don't understand 156 00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:58.679 why the the other Bowl game, the Cheese At Bowl or whatever it is 157 00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:03.639 now in Phoenix they play that at at Bank One Bank One at at Chase 158 00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:09.320 Field instead of Sun Devil Stadium. I don't understand that either. You know, 159 00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:11.679 that makes no sense. Why you're playing on a baseball field instead of 160 00:11:11.720 --> 00:11:15.360 a football field. Maybe it's a cost thing or something like that. But 161 00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:20.360 Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego seems like a no brainer to be bringing the Holiday 162 00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:22.320 bawl there because that can be a great ball I mean, you've been to 163 00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.120 that a couple of times and it's very it's a very cool, very cool 164 00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:28.240 bol to be in San Diego, you know, over the over the Christmas 165 00:11:28.279 --> 00:11:33.919 period. But interesting stuff. You see, Oh here's what that.

Hey, welcome back to I About here Fox Sports twteen fifty. 259 00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:59.200 I'm Steve Regret, p Jagan Sauce Nonifi. We have pro golfer Don 260 00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:03.880 Cooley. How are you. I'm well, Thank you, Good to have 261 00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:06.720 you on the show. I have an odd question just to begin. Jay 262 00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:10.119 was talking about when he was a kid back in the day and he played 263 00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:12.359 golf a lot as a kid. He is fifty cents right to go play 264 00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:15.720 at Randolph or whatever. Yeh, Don, what age did you start and 265 00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:22.839 how much were you paying to be on a golf course. I started really 266 00:18:22.839 --> 00:18:26.160 when I was seven years old, and I didn't pay anything. I was 267 00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.400 my dad was a member of a country club in Riverside, California, and 268 00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:34.519 so I got to play for free out there. I play after school, 269 00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:37.759 I play on the weekends. I played a lot of golf growing up and 270 00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:41.400 was probably a little nicer than Randolph North and Randolph South, which is where 271 00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:48.440 I built my career over there. So we want, we want, we 272 00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:51.519 wanted to talk to you because it's it's the US Open week. You played 273 00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:56.240 in what I think thirteen of them, right is the number? I see. 274 00:18:56.319 --> 00:18:59.279 It was close to fifteen of them, I'm not sure exactly, a 275 00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:00.759 whole bunch of them, and way more than I ever played in, so 276 00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:03.880 you know think First of all, let me ask you about the first time. 277 00:19:04.640 --> 00:19:07.519 Looking at your bio, it's in nineteen seventy seven, was your first 278 00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:11.480 US Open? Did you have to qualify for that or did you Did you 279 00:19:11.559 --> 00:19:18.279 get into that because of everybody has to qualify unless you're one of the superstars 280 00:19:18.519 --> 00:19:23.279 back in the day, I'm not sure how you got exempt. You had 281 00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:30.559 to be in the top fifty in the money list, maybe the exempt I'm 282 00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:33.680 not sure what the criteria was, but yeah, at Southern Hills in seventy 283 00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:37.079 seven, I had to qualify and I made it there and that was that 284 00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:41.960 was my first US Open. I believe I missed the cut there, but 285 00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:45.559 it was. It was a great experience. Greens were so fast, Yeah, 286 00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:53.400 and I really loved it. You'd have to tell me in nineteen eighty 287 00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:56.279 where the US Open was. I'll let you know if I played in it 288 00:19:56.359 --> 00:20:00.799 or not. Yeah, Okay, the eighty US So have you you're paying 289 00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:03.960 seventy seven, then I have you going in eighty one and eighty two, 290 00:20:03.519 --> 00:20:07.839 and then you made your first cut in eighty five. Where was that? 291 00:20:10.720 --> 00:20:15.200 That was at Oakland Hills and outside of Detroit. Okay, yep, I 292 00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:21.400 finished fifteenth, I think there when Andy North won in that year. But 293 00:20:21.759 --> 00:20:29.440 I took a break. I took a break after eighty two because I got 294 00:20:29.480 --> 00:20:34.640 into a kind of a bad attitude about how the Ushade set up the golf 295 00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:38.880 course. In nineteen eighty one at Marion, I played a practice round there 296 00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:42.000 and I was going to hit like ten pitching wedges, and I thought, 297 00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:47.519 somebody's gonna shoot twenty under here. Hitting that many wedges, and they let 298 00:20:47.559 --> 00:20:52.039 the they let the fairways grow about half an inch, and that was before 299 00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:55.079 square grooves, and so I hit nothing but flyers out of the fairway. 300 00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:57.799 Oh, okay, couldn't You couldn't control your wedges, and I thought that 301 00:20:57.880 --> 00:21:06.680 was a cheap shot. And then in eighty two we had the US Open 302 00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:10.920 at Pebble Beach. I actually played three US Opens at Pebble, my favorite 303 00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:14.519 golf course, and I got so angry at how they set up Pebble. 304 00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:18.440 They had the greens rock hard, and they watered ten yards in front of 305 00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:22.680 the green, so you couldn't bounce it up and you couldn't fly it on. 306 00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:26.440 The usj had a thing that they wanted to shoot par and had a 307 00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:30.599 good score, but they tricked it up to do that, and so I 308 00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:36.799 I think I boycotted to my own detriment the next couple of years. Okay, 309 00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:41.319 but then he came back. Then I played as many as I could 310 00:21:41.400 --> 00:21:42.359 after that. Yeah, you came back. You made a bunch. I 311 00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:45.880 had a bad attitude for a while. Wow, you made a bunch of 312 00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:49.200 cuts. Did you ever play Pinehurst where they're playing at this year? Yes, 313 00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:52.559 I did play Pinehurst. I'm not sure. I think I played it 314 00:21:52.559 --> 00:21:56.119 in a in a US Open. I know I played it in the in 315 00:21:56.200 --> 00:22:00.240 the the regular tournament that they had there, but only had that their one 316 00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:06.400 one year. Morristowski won that year. So done. Yeah, I play. 317 00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:08.000 I played that course, great golf course. So done. I'm not 318 00:22:08.000 --> 00:22:11.200 gonna I'm not the golfer in the room. I suck at it. That's 319 00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:14.920 why I don't play. So let me ask you a question. How do 320 00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:17.839 nerves play a part in this? All? You guys are very good at 321 00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:22.359 this game? Do they play a part? Nerves play apart, but maybe 322 00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:26.759 not in the way you might think, Uh, you want to be nervous. 323 00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:32.119 You want to be a little nervous because that really forces your concentration better. 324 00:22:32.759 --> 00:22:34.799 And uh, you don't want to be nervous to the point you're scared 325 00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:38.200 that that doesn't do any good, right, But you do want to You 326 00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:45.359 do want to have the nerves. I really enjoyed playing with nerves, but 327 00:22:45.079 --> 00:22:48.519 that doesn't mean you always play great with them. It's just I really I 328 00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:52.720 felt like my focus was so much better when I was a little nervous. 329 00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:53.960 At what point do they go away? Though? They have to go away 330 00:22:55.000 --> 00:22:59.519 at some point. Not if you're in the lead, they stay with you 331 00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:02.720 the whole time time. Yeah, that makes sense. I remember. I 332 00:23:02.759 --> 00:23:08.200 remember the first first time I played the Masters in nineteen eighty one, I 333 00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:11.519 got off to a good I was obviously nervous on the first t and I 334 00:23:11.559 --> 00:23:15.920 got off to a good start and I was actually four under par and leading 335 00:23:15.920 --> 00:23:19.559 the tournament after fifteen holes, and that those first hole jitters never left me 336 00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:22.039 the whole the whole round. Wow, I had him, I had them 337 00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:25.880 all eighteen holes. Interesting, But what did you finish? Would you finish 338 00:23:25.880 --> 00:23:30.480 with it? In the first round? I bog et, bogie bogie nil. 339 00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:33.200 They cut up to you. Yeah, okay, I hate that. 340 00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:37.720 I hate that. So but the fun thing was, I think I got 341 00:23:37.759 --> 00:23:41.160 to play with Jack Nicholas the next day. They paired back then they paired 342 00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:45.039 you based on score each day, and so I was paired with Jack that 343 00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:51.319 next day. And then I at another UH Master's tournament, I got paired 344 00:23:51.319 --> 00:23:53.799 with him again, and I remember he shot sixty five and he missed three 345 00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:57.240 four footers and shot sixty five, and I told him, I go, 346 00:23:57.519 --> 00:24:00.640 well, no, wonder you play so well here? This course is too 347 00:24:00.680 --> 00:24:03.839 easy? For you. So you you mentioned how, you know, the 348 00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:07.079 when they set up these courses for the US Open, they're notorious for, 349 00:24:07.759 --> 00:24:11.200 as you say, trying to get you to shoot par to win the tournament. 350 00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:15.039 But over the last few years that hasn't been the case. These guys 351 00:24:15.039 --> 00:24:18.400 are still going out there and and blasting the course. But what what were 352 00:24:18.440 --> 00:24:22.079 some of the interesting things that they did in the US Opens that you saw? 353 00:24:22.119 --> 00:24:25.720 You mentioned, uh, you know, the the at Pebble, what 354 00:24:25.759 --> 00:24:30.960 they did that one time? You mentioned the fairways at another course. Were 355 00:24:30.000 --> 00:24:33.200 those things hard for you? Were they frustrating? Were they or did you 356 00:24:33.319 --> 00:24:37.599 just expect it and deal with it? Well? They were. They were 357 00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:41.640 hard and frustrating at the at the early part of my career. And then 358 00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:45.240 I then I just told myself, this is why it's going to be, 359 00:24:47.079 --> 00:24:49.160 and uh, learn to play with it, and just everybody has to play 360 00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:52.400 under the same conditions, right, you just play it. I think they 361 00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:57.519 also stop tricking the courses up a little bit. They made them very difficult, 362 00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:02.480 made the fairways very narrow, made the rough very high, greens very 363 00:25:02.519 --> 00:25:07.000 firm. And when you do that, doesn't you can make Randolph very very 364 00:25:07.079 --> 00:25:10.759 difficult. You know, if you have high rough and firm greens, randolf 365 00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:14.400 will be tough. Yeah, so you do it on a on a famous 366 00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:18.720 golf course, it's going to be a tough test. And the problem today 367 00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:22.920 is these guys hit it so far that even if they missed the fairway, 368 00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:26.920 they still don't have a whole lot left to the green, so they can 369 00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:29.200 get a wedge out of there. Back in my day, if I missed 370 00:25:29.240 --> 00:25:32.400 the fairway, I couldn't hit a five iron out of that high rough. 371 00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:36.240 I still had to wedge it out and then and then play from there. 372 00:25:36.599 --> 00:25:38.960 This may this may be another dumb question, but the US Open it was 373 00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:42.279 a great test. I mean you had to you had to do all parts 374 00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:47.240 of the game to to win the Open. This may be certainly a mental 375 00:25:47.319 --> 00:25:49.680 test more than anything else. Yeah, do you do you at times when 376 00:25:49.680 --> 00:25:53.640 you're watching these events on TV or actually in person, wish that you would 377 00:25:53.720 --> 00:26:00.000 be playing now? Yeah, the money they're playing, I would love to 378 00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:04.359 be playing now. You would have to adjust, adjust your game. I 379 00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:11.839 assume, well my game, my game would not work today. I mean 380 00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:15.599 I didn't I did not hit the ball three hundred and thirty yards off the 381 00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:18.319 tee. Maybe I would have with the equipment, with the equipment of the 382 00:26:18.319 --> 00:26:22.119 ball. When I was younger, maybe I would have hit it that far 383 00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:27.240 because I was hitting it, oh, two ninety to three hundred on the 384 00:26:27.279 --> 00:26:30.920 senior Tour, and I wasn't as strong man on the senior Tour as I 385 00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:33.720 was on the regular tour. But back on the regular tour, I was 386 00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:37.359 hitting it two sixty, you know, and that was that was average. 387 00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:41.000 That wasn't that wasn't even short back, and it was just kind of average. 388 00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:45.039 So totally changed. I mean, now now guys hit it one hundred 389 00:26:45.079 --> 00:26:48.799 yards farther than that. Yeah. Well, and you know, you see 390 00:26:48.799 --> 00:26:51.880 a guy like Bryson de shamb when you go well and the way they swing, 391 00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:53.519 I mean, it's just you. I don't know. I mean, 392 00:26:53.559 --> 00:26:56.920 obviously Tiger Wood's body broke down with you know, the way, you know, 393 00:26:56.960 --> 00:27:00.880 the way he would swing the club. But you just wonder how long 394 00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:03.720 some of these guys can last. How you don't have back problems from all 395 00:27:03.720 --> 00:27:08.880 that stuff. Yeah, well, I have back problems and I didn't sway 396 00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:15.599 here that or there that long. I have back problems from carrying Jay. 397 00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:21.839 So, so, did you have a favorite of all those US Opens? 398 00:27:21.839 --> 00:27:25.640 You played, and did you You mentioned Pebble Beach and that's to me, 399 00:27:25.720 --> 00:27:27.519 I guess kind of a no brainer. But some what what were some of 400 00:27:27.559 --> 00:27:32.839 the other courses that you really liked going out there and taking a shot at 401 00:27:33.079 --> 00:27:40.759 in the US Open? Well, I like Madina in Chicago, I think 402 00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:45.559 that was nineteen ninety or somewhere around there. I liked Shnacock out on Long 403 00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:51.680 Island. That was a great course, great test and that and that actually 404 00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:57.359 was even parr was a good score there that year. The weather was lustury 405 00:27:57.400 --> 00:28:00.319 and the you know, the rough was high and the greens were tough. 406 00:28:00.359 --> 00:28:06.920 I think Raymond Floyd won that year there, and I don't know, I 407 00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:11.400 really enjoyed them. As my career got on, I enjoyed playing all the 408 00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:15.680 majors that I got into, and it was it was a thrill. Yeah. 409 00:28:15.759 --> 00:28:19.440 Do you have any fas I look forward to? What's that? Go 410 00:28:19.440 --> 00:28:26.480 ahead? Do you look forward to? I look forward to all the majors. 411 00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:30.039 I didn't start playing the the the Open Championship, the British Open until 412 00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:33.079 late in my career, but once I started, I go, oh, 413 00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:37.200 I need to play that every year if I can. So I love I 414 00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:41.880 love playing the Links style golf courses over there where you keep the ball on 415 00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:45.440 the ground and get different shots. That was that was fun golf for me. 416 00:28:47.119 --> 00:28:51.440 Do you have a favorite player or two to watch now? Yeah? 417 00:28:51.559 --> 00:28:57.400 I like I love watching Scottie Scheffler. He's he's hot right now and the 418 00:28:57.440 --> 00:29:02.799 best player in the world and he's he's a solid guy and it's fun fun 419 00:29:02.839 --> 00:29:10.359 watching him. I used to Jordan Speeth, I like watching him. Who 420 00:29:10.440 --> 00:29:15.279 else? H what what makes it? What makes them watchable? What what 421 00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:19.079 makes you do that with him? Well? I like I like that. 422 00:29:19.519 --> 00:29:25.759 I like their demeanor, their attitude, Uh, the quiet faith that they 423 00:29:25.839 --> 00:29:30.759 have and how it shows through when they're in their golf. I just appreciate 424 00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:34.799 that because that's what I tried to do and it was it was hard, 425 00:29:34.920 --> 00:29:40.400 hard to do it that way, and uh it's uh, it's fun. 426 00:29:40.400 --> 00:29:44.279 It's fun watching Scotti Scheffler Uh have so much success. Well, I was 427 00:29:44.279 --> 00:29:47.440 gonna ask about him because they're starting to use, you know, the the 428 00:29:47.440 --> 00:29:49.839 T word, the Tiger word for him in terms of his dominance. Now 429 00:29:51.039 --> 00:29:55.680 he's not dominating and hasn't dominated for the amount of time Tiger did, but 430 00:29:56.039 --> 00:29:57.799 people are starting to mention that that he could be that guy. You know, 431 00:29:57.799 --> 00:30:03.359 they always talk about the next Mychael Jordan, the next you know whatever, 432 00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:07.119 And there there's starting to be some conversation about that because he has been 433 00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:10.920 so good. Uh, and he's just if he's on his game, you're 434 00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:12.839 you're just not going to beat him. He has to not play well for 435 00:30:12.880 --> 00:30:17.359 you to beat him. It seems like what has made him such a good 436 00:30:17.440 --> 00:30:22.559 player, do you think, Well, he does everything well. His iron 437 00:30:22.599 --> 00:30:26.799 play is probably better than anybody else on tour, and that's a huge, 438 00:30:27.319 --> 00:30:32.720 huge advantage to hit your irons well. When he puts well, nobody can 439 00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:36.200 touch him. When he doesn't putt well, he still finishes in the top 440 00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:40.400 ten. So he's he's always going to be right there because he hits the 441 00:30:40.400 --> 00:30:45.160 ball so well. And but compare him with Tiger. Tiger did it for 442 00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:51.680 a decade, Nicholas did it for over a decade. So Scheffler's done it 443 00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:53.480 for a couple of years. But you know, he's got to go another 444 00:30:55.480 --> 00:30:59.279 six, seven, eight years before you can really start comparing him with some 445 00:30:59.359 --> 00:31:02.000 of those other No, and that, and that's true, but you know, 446 00:31:02.359 --> 00:31:06.480 again, the rumblings, right, you know, it's always nice it's 447 00:31:06.519 --> 00:31:11.720 nice to be talked about it that way. That's pretty cool. You didn't 448 00:31:11.720 --> 00:31:15.400 never get arrested before a round of a tournament or anything like that, did 449 00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:19.640 you? No? I never never got arrested, and I never won the 450 00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:25.920 Masters. So he's sent a couple of things. That was that was. 451 00:31:26.000 --> 00:31:30.559 That was an entirely weird, weird thing for him. But how does something 452 00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:34.039 like that not just tear you up? Right? Uh? You know? 453 00:31:34.359 --> 00:31:38.319 I mean, you know, you guys are so routine oriented, you know, 454 00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:41.200 if you have your routines before a tournament, before a round the golf. 455 00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:45.680 I mean, how would that have thrown How did that not completely throw 456 00:31:45.759 --> 00:31:48.720 him off? Yeah? I don't I don't know how he went out and 457 00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:55.039 shuts it's five hundred part that day. He said he warmed up in jail. 458 00:31:56.599 --> 00:32:00.240 He was probably nervous, nervous. I loved how I loved how you 459 00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:04.519 mentioned that he's sitting there and he's in jail, and he's watching himself on 460 00:32:04.599 --> 00:32:07.640 TV because they were showing, you know, all the stuff. But it 461 00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:12.400 was just a really weird incident. Okay, so these guys go ahead. 462 00:32:13.480 --> 00:32:15.640 The mug shot wasn't his best look. It was. It was not the 463 00:32:15.640 --> 00:32:20.000 orange jumpsuite. That's never a good look. So so some of these guys 464 00:32:20.000 --> 00:32:22.279 who were playing in the US Open for the first time, you know, 465 00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:25.240 what are they going through right now? The turn? You know they start 466 00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:30.319 day after tomorrow. You know, how do you keep your focus? You 467 00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:32.160 know, your practice rounds, all that kind of stuff. What are you 468 00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:38.519 doing to prepare for your first US Open? Yeah, Well, one of 469 00:32:38.559 --> 00:32:43.319 the things that's tough about that is you're playing of course you've never seen before, 470 00:32:43.400 --> 00:32:46.640 probably certainly if it's your first year on tour, and so now you're 471 00:32:46.680 --> 00:32:51.160 trying to if you played the week before, or you you've only got two 472 00:32:51.240 --> 00:32:55.240 or three practice rounds too, Maybe that's hard to learn a very tough, 473 00:32:55.400 --> 00:33:00.119 tough golf course in two rounds. But you know, there's a lot of 474 00:33:00.480 --> 00:33:02.119 a lot of yarnage books, a lot of a lot of help with the 475 00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:10.039 UH range finders and everything else you can use today to figure out a golf 476 00:33:10.079 --> 00:33:14.519 course. But you've got you don't have a lot of time to figure out 477 00:33:14.559 --> 00:33:17.599 how you're going to attack or play this golf course. And uh, you 478 00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:21.200 know, the best players in the world are going to be playing well in 479 00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:24.440 that right, So it's it's it's a tall order for for a rookie to 480 00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:29.720 do well at a US Open, even though the rookies have done well before. 481 00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:31.920 Jerry Pate won when I was out there, Yeah, my first year. 482 00:33:32.839 --> 00:33:37.359 Pet and I went through the qualifying school together and played the last round 483 00:33:37.400 --> 00:33:40.400 of the qualifying school together and and I lost my card. But he won 484 00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:45.359 the US Open that year, so it was a different our careers. Okay, 485 00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:46.119 I want to ask you. I've been wanting to ask you this for 486 00:33:46.279 --> 00:33:49.400 ever a while, and this will get you in trouble with any of the 487 00:33:49.400 --> 00:33:52.559 courses in town. Feel free to not answer it or whatever. But do 488 00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:58.079 you have a favorite course in Tucson? Oh? I do. I like 489 00:33:59.119 --> 00:34:01.799 I live close to Lama and that's been kind of my favorite for a long 490 00:34:01.839 --> 00:34:07.599 time. But I like a lot of golf courses in town. I like 491 00:34:07.759 --> 00:34:13.320 Bentanna, I like the Gallery. I like Tucson Country Cleve and Oryal Valley, 492 00:34:13.360 --> 00:34:16.920 two courses you can walk, you know. And uh I don't play 493 00:34:16.960 --> 00:34:22.039 a lot of public courses. Although I enjoyed playing Randolph. I used I 494 00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:27.880 used to play Randolph in the Tucson Open a few years and uh so I 495 00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:30.440 enjoyed. I mean, I I like playing in Tucson. Dumb Mountain is 496 00:34:30.480 --> 00:34:36.960 fun. Now they've they they've redesigned that again. And National nice place. 497 00:34:37.039 --> 00:34:40.880 Yep. Okay, so there's a lot of Stone Canyon is beautiful. I 498 00:34:40.920 --> 00:34:46.320 don't know that that's a course. There's a lot of really good golf courses 499 00:34:46.360 --> 00:34:50.760 in Tucson. But if I, if I had to just go out and 500 00:34:50.760 --> 00:34:53.159 play, it would probably be La Pahoma one that's close to my house. 501 00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:58.400 And I just like I like a Jack Nicholas designed golf course too. So 502 00:34:58.440 --> 00:35:00.280 he didn't get in trouble. He'd mentioned you got them all, you got 503 00:35:00.320 --> 00:35:05.199 them all? Well, yeah, good you and you and you you were 504 00:35:05.199 --> 00:35:08.239 to that, you were to that. Don We do appreciate it for you 505 00:35:08.320 --> 00:35:14.239 jumping in good stuff. Looking forward to watching the tournament this weekend. Yeah, 506 00:35:14.280 --> 00:35:17.199 me too, me too, All right, thanks a bunch. Appreciate 507 00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:21.360 you think you've done. Pully, obviously I was gonna ask him, And 508 00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:24.119 it's a dumb question. If you want to dream, we have a good 509 00:35:24.199 --> 00:35:28.760 job, you know, you know whatever, we talked about this, but 510 00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:32.159 if you want to be like a pro dude golfer would be yeah, all 511 00:35:32.320 --> 00:35:36.639 these places you have to you're on your own. Well, right, and 512 00:35:36.719 --> 00:35:39.400 you don't have to be you know, six foot five, you know whatever, 513 00:35:39.840 --> 00:35:45.360 you know, you can be just an average you physically average. But 514 00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:47.280 if you're if you if you have the talent and your and you you work 515 00:35:47.320 --> 00:35:51.119 hard at it, you can be you can be a really good golfer. 516 00:35:51.159 --> 00:35:53.519 And I know a lot of guys who work really hard to you know, 517 00:35:53.880 --> 00:35:58.960 and never became anything more than good amateur golfers. I think it's still like, 518 00:35:59.159 --> 00:36:00.840 you know, like Woods was born to be a golfer. I mean 519 00:36:00.880 --> 00:36:05.960 his body and his his upbringing, he was born to be well too. 520 00:36:06.039 --> 00:36:08.039 Because you know, if you I mean, if you look, if you're 521 00:36:08.079 --> 00:36:12.239 in you're if you're on the PGA Tour, you're really I'm a good golfer. 522 00:36:12.360 --> 00:36:15.119 I don't know if I said this is one time, but you know, 523 00:36:15.159 --> 00:36:16.159 when my son I went to the US Open a few years ago a 524 00:36:16.199 --> 00:36:21.360 pebble beach and we're walking up there. We're walking up a fair way and 525 00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:24.199 you know, two guys were playing in it. They're walking and I've never 526 00:36:24.280 --> 00:36:28.280 heard of either one. You see the sign that they're they're I never heard 527 00:36:28.280 --> 00:36:30.239 of either one of them, and I thought those guys suck, you know, 528 00:36:30.280 --> 00:36:32.199 because they're not. And then at that wait a minute, no they 529 00:36:32.239 --> 00:36:37.480 don't. They're here, they're walking Pebble Beach in the US Open. Well, 530 00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:39.480 they don't suck. They're really they're two of the best golfers in the 531 00:36:39.599 --> 00:36:42.719 world. Now, they might not be as good as a bunch of the 532 00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:45.639 other guys are playing against, but they're two of the best golfers in the 533 00:36:45.679 --> 00:36:47.400 world. And for me to sit there and say, you're you're not any 534 00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:51.360 good, You're you're damn good if you're playing it just like the joke is, 535 00:36:51.360 --> 00:36:53.119 what do you call a dude who finished the second last and his his 536 00:36:53.639 --> 00:36:59.440 his doctor degree for the doctor a doctor, a doctor exactly?

What? 598 00:41:13.800 --> 00:41:15.880 How much you will they win? No? It's yeah, the wind total 599 00:41:16.639 --> 00:41:21.920 it's eight on draft ticket. I'm taking that. I'm taking over taking that. 600 00:41:22.880 --> 00:41:24.320 It wasn't eight and a half before. Yeah, Yeah, I don't 601 00:41:24.320 --> 00:41:28.280 think there's no different I've seen. I'm just looking at during the break, 602 00:41:28.280 --> 00:41:30.679 I've seen seven and a half. Eight and eight and a half is it 603 00:41:30.800 --> 00:41:37.039 for different odds? Yeah? So what's the seven and a half at Let's 604 00:41:37.119 --> 00:41:39.119 I'm trying to because I had it on Vegas Insider here they had there was 605 00:41:39.119 --> 00:41:42.280 a couple of people, there's something, there's some place to have them at 606 00:41:42.280 --> 00:41:45.760 seven and a half. I would go over for sure on that one. 607 00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:47.079 Yeah. If you get eight and then they finished at eight, you push 608 00:41:47.199 --> 00:41:51.480 right, they'll push you give your Yeah, eight and a half would give 609 00:41:51.480 --> 00:41:54.519 you. Well. So Fan Duel and bed MGM have them at seven and 610 00:41:54.559 --> 00:42:00.360 a half over over, and then Draft Kings has them at eight. Uh. 611 00:42:01.199 --> 00:42:07.440 And actually a couple other Bally's and I can't tell what that other one 612 00:42:07.599 --> 00:42:09.679 is have them at seven and a half. I'm gonna go find the seven 613 00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:15.400 and a half and I think I'll take you probably get one thirty, we 614 00:42:15.559 --> 00:42:22.079 get even because that seems like a low number. One ten, You can 615 00:42:22.280 --> 00:42:25.920 do that. You can get plus one forty eight. It was like, 616 00:42:27.159 --> 00:42:30.239 uh, it was like last year's easy was it five? What was it? 617 00:42:30.480 --> 00:42:32.599 It was five and a half last year that was given they were giving 618 00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:36.679 you money. Yeah, yeap. So I've hit the over two times and 619 00:42:36.800 --> 00:42:43.239 you know the uh the second you remember it was I think what was two 620 00:42:43.280 --> 00:42:45.519 and a half. Yeah, uh yeah. Jad Fish's second year and then 621 00:42:45.519 --> 00:42:47.760 they went to beat San Diego State and I'm like, I got this. 622 00:42:49.559 --> 00:42:52.320 So that was that was good. That was free money. Ye. Yeah. 623 00:42:52.480 --> 00:42:57.960 So anyways, here's a funny thing. That's what Washington is at three 624 00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:04.960 three Washington. Yeah, University of Washington. You asked me to guess Jet 625 00:43:05.000 --> 00:43:07.199 finished Jet Fish's universe. They were in the National Championship Game last year. 626 00:43:07.239 --> 00:43:13.079 Yeah, but they've moved to conferences and Jeff you coach at seven seven. 627 00:43:13.840 --> 00:43:15.320 I'll go under, you take the under. I'll take the under on that, 628 00:43:15.599 --> 00:43:19.760 just because I'm not out of bitterness and I think I'm just thinking he's 629 00:43:19.800 --> 00:43:22.280 gonna have it hard in the first year. Okay, a s u oh 630 00:43:24.239 --> 00:43:27.920 three four and a half. Oh, I go under. You take the 631 00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:30.599 under on that. The new league with the same situation, yeah under. 632 00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:37.639 Okay, Oregon and going into the Big twelve in Big ten O seven eight, 633 00:43:37.840 --> 00:43:40.679 you're not even close. You're still not close. Ten and a half 634 00:43:42.320 --> 00:43:47.159 under under under big time under. Would you think? I don't know how 635 00:43:47.159 --> 00:43:50.639 good are they going to be? That's the whole thing, that's the whole 636 00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:53.480 mystery. I think your question too, to to Brennan was a good one 637 00:43:53.920 --> 00:43:58.639 as much as he any what how's you gonna answer it? Right? They're 638 00:43:58.719 --> 00:44:00.159 new, we're new and no one knows with each other. Right, how's 639 00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:05.840 it gonna go? The same applies to both sides because Oregon's good, but 640 00:44:06.039 --> 00:44:09.800 are they and guess what they're gonna do well against the teams that are no 641 00:44:09.880 --> 00:44:13.119 good? Right? It's the it's the key. But that's the thing. 642 00:44:13.199 --> 00:44:15.159 There's a lot of you know again, you know the Big the Big ten 643 00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:20.800 is so top heavy, so overrated. Those after Ohio State, Michigan and 644 00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:23.079 I guess Penn State they suck. Yeah, so how many games you play? 645 00:44:23.119 --> 00:44:29.760 Twelve? Yeah? So and they play nine conference games? What's the 646 00:44:29.920 --> 00:44:31.639 what's the number? Ten? Ten and a half? It's I think, 647 00:44:32.000 --> 00:44:35.519 what do you think if okay, if Oregon's ten and a half whereas o 648 00:44:35.559 --> 00:44:38.440 Higo State eleven, ten and a half, ten and a half, So 649 00:44:39.000 --> 00:44:43.480 that they're saying they're picking Ohio State in Oregon State to win the same number. 650 00:44:43.519 --> 00:44:45.440 But I don't know about that new quarterback all that? Well, good 651 00:44:45.519 --> 00:44:50.800 quarterback obviously, Yeah, it's tough. And what Jed's seven? Jed seven, 652 00:44:50.880 --> 00:44:53.239 there's there's I don't know about that. Are you sold on Jed? 653 00:44:55.679 --> 00:45:00.440 This is a big step. This is a big step. Is a maybe 654 00:45:00.880 --> 00:45:06.760 well, I don't know. I maybe not in his first year, right, 655 00:45:07.519 --> 00:45:09.000 you know, maybe he's got to go get it, get get get 656 00:45:09.039 --> 00:45:14.280 everything acclimated to the way he does right. And he's also got to take 657 00:45:14.280 --> 00:45:19.440 a step of you know, he was able to sell playing time to players 658 00:45:20.039 --> 00:45:22.440 at Arizona. You come here, you're gonna play because we suck. You 659 00:45:22.519 --> 00:45:27.239 know, that's not quite the same deal. And Washington, he's got to 660 00:45:27.239 --> 00:45:29.360 get it. He's got to get a different level of player. I remember 661 00:45:29.400 --> 00:45:32.320 when when when Larry Smith went to us C and some of the players that 662 00:45:32.400 --> 00:45:36.280 he was recruiting, you're saying, Larry, you don't have to go get 663 00:45:36.360 --> 00:45:40.360 projects anymore. You're USC You go get the I remember he he recruited the 664 00:45:40.400 --> 00:45:45.079 kid out of Douglas that Arizona didn't even recruit, right, And he went 665 00:45:45.159 --> 00:45:46.039 and took it and and they were like, Larry, you don't have to 666 00:45:46.079 --> 00:45:50.440 go you don't have to get that guy anymore. You know, you're USC. 667 00:45:50.679 --> 00:45:53.079 You go get the elite players. What are you doing? And you're 668 00:45:53.079 --> 00:45:59.639 gonna want You're gonna see how Jetfish recruits when he's recruiting to Washington as opposed 669 00:45:59.639 --> 00:46:04.159 to air right in terms of recognizing what players he can he can get what 670 00:46:04.280 --> 00:46:07.280 players he doesn't have to get. So to your question for Jed seven and 671 00:46:07.320 --> 00:46:09.679 seven and a half or seven under under, there was an over seven and 672 00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:16.599 a half of four and a half under under. Okay, Colorado, that's 673 00:46:16.639 --> 00:46:22.639 it, is it five five and a half under under? Yeah? I 674 00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:25.719 think the first year was kind of like a one hit type of they and 675 00:46:25.800 --> 00:46:30.119 they did. They lived off adrenaline for the first month and then they faded 676 00:46:30.119 --> 00:46:31.679 the rest of the way. That that game where they have Stanford and then 677 00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:36.039 they lost. Yeah, that just crushed them. Yeah. I love that 678 00:46:36.159 --> 00:46:40.440 one. That was a great game. Oklahoma going to the SEC. Oh, 679 00:46:40.519 --> 00:46:44.800 that's a good one. That's a good one. Eight seven and a 680 00:46:44.840 --> 00:46:47.119 half. These are DraftKings numbers. Yeah. By the way, these are 681 00:46:47.159 --> 00:46:51.679 all DraftKings seven and a half. Yeah. It's gonna be fun because it's 682 00:46:51.679 --> 00:46:53.239 all new. It's all new, and it's gonna be fun to look at 683 00:46:53.280 --> 00:46:58.239 what happens in the leagues. Yeah. We talked about this with Andy yesterday. 684 00:46:58.559 --> 00:47:00.480 Uh, with the ACC in the s CEC, right in the in 685 00:47:00.599 --> 00:47:07.079 the in the World Series. First time it's happening forever. That's interesting and 686 00:47:07.639 --> 00:47:12.280 uh, we'll see how football goes. Basketball is Uh. I'm telling people 687 00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:15.239 my friends who have tickets are away their tickets for basketball. This is the 688 00:47:15.320 --> 00:47:21.119 time to have basketball tickets in all my time of having covered the team. 689 00:47:22.000 --> 00:47:24.400 This is just gonna be a fun, fun year. Dude comes in, 690 00:47:24.960 --> 00:47:29.679 the Big twelve comes in. Why not have a ticket? Yeah, I 691 00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:32.239 know they're expensive and all that, but yeah, no, I look for 692 00:47:32.519 --> 00:47:39.880 here's when U see LA ten four five maybe and a half. Yeah, 693 00:47:40.960 --> 00:47:44.639 new coach. We don't even know how good a coach he is or if 694 00:47:44.679 --> 00:47:47.639 you can coach right right? Yeah, that's that's of all the teams. 695 00:47:47.760 --> 00:47:52.559 I think of all the teams switching conferences, I think that a issue. 696 00:47:52.719 --> 00:47:57.480 And U c l A have the biggest hills to climb. Okay, yeah 697 00:47:57.559 --> 00:48:00.920 that's okay, Yeah that would you think just top of my head, Yeah, 698 00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:04.480 because is up against it and it's usually is not the one the team 699 00:48:04.519 --> 00:48:10.599 that we haven't been ul as you Jake Plumber ain't coming through that the lot. 700 00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:14.719 Yeah, and that's when they were good. Yeah yeah, I could 701 00:48:14.760 --> 00:48:19.000 be wrong. But how about Utah. I think they're gonna be good nine 702 00:48:19.360 --> 00:48:22.320 nine and a half. Yeah, they're gonna win the league. They win 703 00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:25.239 the league? They can you think they will? Who's gonna beat them. 704 00:48:25.280 --> 00:48:29.400 I'm trying to think. I had a I had a story up that who's 705 00:48:29.440 --> 00:48:34.039 gonna beat them? I think it was a Sports Illustrated story about that had 706 00:48:34.079 --> 00:48:37.000 the over unders. So they basically were picking the winner and let them call 707 00:48:37.079 --> 00:48:42.119 that up. And they've got Kansas State at nine and a half. That 708 00:48:42.239 --> 00:48:45.920 means that means that they have Arizona losing to Kansas State. Yep, yep, 709 00:48:45.960 --> 00:48:49.280 They've got Utah nine and a half. Then they they've got Arizona at 710 00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:52.599 eight and a half. Mhm. But they're but they're all they're also saying 711 00:48:52.639 --> 00:48:57.000 to take the under on that. Yeah, I would, Yeah, it's 712 00:48:57.000 --> 00:48:59.679 gonna be eight. They're gonna win eight. We gotta get Jake in and 713 00:48:59.760 --> 00:49:02.559 say, cause these are you know what, I need to go find that 714 00:49:02.639 --> 00:49:07.880 seven and a half and and call that up and you better do it now. 715 00:49:07.960 --> 00:49:10.920 I bet it. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely absolutely, Okay. Here 716 00:49:10.960 --> 00:49:17.239 we are odds to win the Big twelve Football Championship Utah Utah three to one. 717 00:49:17.559 --> 00:49:22.079 Utah, Utah and Kansas State are both plus three fifty three fifty. 718 00:49:22.599 --> 00:49:25.960 DraftKings are three. Actually, Utah three thirty, Kansas State three fifty, 719 00:49:27.320 --> 00:49:32.840 Arizona seven and a half Arizona eight fifty, but they're one two three four 720 00:49:34.039 --> 00:49:37.519 five they are this Oh that's too low there, No, they're the one 721 00:49:37.639 --> 00:49:40.480 two three for the fourth. Yeah, that's and that's that's large pick. 722 00:49:40.840 --> 00:49:46.159 They've got Utah, Kansas State, Kansas, Kansas, and then Arizona. 723 00:49:46.360 --> 00:49:52.519 Yeah, and then then after Arizona they've got Texas Tech, Iowa State, 724 00:49:53.360 --> 00:49:58.440 Oklahoma State, and UCF And then you go all the way down to Colorado 725 00:49:58.519 --> 00:50:02.239 with thirty five one hundred, ASU at ten thousand, euy you at twelve 726 00:50:02.320 --> 00:50:06.239 thousand? Are they really bad? I don't know. Yeah, I don't 727 00:50:06.280 --> 00:50:07.519 know. Let me ask you this, what about what? I will talk 728 00:50:07.559 --> 00:50:12.320 more about this as we get the sportswriters coming in on the show, as 729 00:50:12.360 --> 00:50:17.840 we get closer, uh Dion Dion coaching Colorado beyond this year? Beyond this 730 00:50:17.960 --> 00:50:22.239 year? Yeah, Well, part of it's gonna be pend if does he 731 00:50:22.280 --> 00:50:23.280 have a good year, If he has a good year, does he go 732 00:50:23.400 --> 00:50:27.639 somewhere else? Well, somewhere else? And his kids are they still yes, 733 00:50:28.360 --> 00:50:30.599 they're both going to go to the NFL this year. Here you go, 734 00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:34.360 and there's a lot of faction action. Does he go to the NFL 735 00:50:34.920 --> 00:50:37.039 or does he yeah, or go somewhere else. Yeah, and if he 736 00:50:37.119 --> 00:50:40.360 doesn't do well, what what happens then? Right, because I mean there 737 00:50:40.480 --> 00:50:43.440 was a lot of hype last year and he got a lot of attention. 738 00:50:43.519 --> 00:50:45.840 They're selling a ton of tickets. But in the end, as as Brent 739 00:50:45.920 --> 00:50:50.360 Brennan says, you still got to win gat You gotta win games to keep 740 00:50:50.400 --> 00:50:52.079 people coming to your games. And if you don't win games, they don't 741 00:50:52.119 --> 00:50:55.400 come. But he's picked, uh, you know, they're they're picked pretty 742 00:50:55.440 --> 00:50:59.719 low in the in the Big twelve. It looks like Utah's emerging as the 743 00:50:59.760 --> 00:51:01.440 fair. Well, they got their quarterback, Cam Rise in his back right, 744 00:51:01.840 --> 00:51:05.280 and it's Utah. They're good. Yeah, they're good. Yeah. 745 00:51:05.719 --> 00:51:08.360 If anybody benefits the most in football at Utah, yeah, because they're just 746 00:51:08.440 --> 00:51:12.920 good. I'm sorrying to hate those guys. Don't tell your guy, I 747 00:51:13.000 --> 00:51:15.199 know our friend Mark Carlin. Don't tell you guys, but they're good. 748 00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:19.239 But this is all they good. Did you remember when we had them on 749 00:51:19.280 --> 00:51:22.239 the show and I told them that everyone was going to kick their asses and 750 00:51:23.400 --> 00:51:25.519 that was kind of a dirtbut I just threw that out there was kind of 751 00:51:25.519 --> 00:51:30.480 it. Didn't kick your ass? And then they I mean all the games 752 00:51:30.519 --> 00:51:32.239 that it was all played outside of the Oklahoma game. That was a big 753 00:51:32.360 --> 00:51:36.320 deal. That was a huge that they played so well that day. It 754 00:51:36.480 --> 00:51:38.639 was it was off the charts. I remember was twenty one zero. I'm 755 00:51:38.639 --> 00:51:42.079 thinking that was a tour at the time. It was that day. Yeah, 756 00:51:42.519 --> 00:51:45.239 I think that can't be right. It can't be right. And they 757 00:51:45.360 --> 00:51:47.119 just killed them. They did, they did. I love watching that game. 758 00:51:47.559 --> 00:51:51.000 All you gotta watch is like the first well when you watch it on 759 00:51:51.119 --> 00:51:53.199 Pac twelve and sixty, you know the sixty minute thing.
