00:00These are three different markets for you in terms of newcomers entering these conferences.

00:09We'll start with the Big Ten.

00:12Newcomers versus the field.

00:14So for the Big Ten, Oregon, UCLA, USC, or Washington to win, the Big Ten is plus 210.

00:20Or you get the field, Joe, at minus 275.

00:24I like this.

00:25Newcomers versus the field.

00:27Yeah, but I mean, no, because it's not worth it.

00:33First of all, I'll say this.

00:35Washington has no shot.

00:36They got two returning starters, and they got gutless Will Rogers as their quarterback.

00:41Will Rogers couldn't even throw for 3,000 yards and stay upright at Mississippi State,

00:47let alone he's going to do it at Washington with no wide receiver talent.

00:50He completed 59% of his passes in big games.

00:53He's a human turnover machine.

00:55And that is with Jed Fish, a coach, no shot.

00:59So Washington scratched him off the list.

01:01The only team that's worthy, I believe, is Oregon.

01:04So I would rather, if you want to take Oregon, right, take them straight, right?

01:10And then USC is like 28 to 1 just to win like the Big Ten this year.

01:16So well, you might as well just take USC straight.

01:20Those are the only two teams that could do it.

01:22I mean, you're going to take UCLA, no shot with Ethan Garbers.

01:27They got no shot with Deshaun Watson, that team turnover.

01:31They lose Linda, defensive coordinator, no shot.

01:35No, no, I'm not taking that back.

01:37No shot, Joe says, no shot he's going to.

01:40By the way, I wanted to get this for you.

01:42For Oregon to win by themselves for the Big Ten, Joe, I'll find it for you

01:48in a minute, but you're right.

01:49I think that Oregon is the only, they're the only team,

01:53they're the only team in that group that you think could realistically

01:56even do it anyway.

01:58So you would want to go and get them on their own.
