00:00Houston, Arizona, this isn't the first time you've heard about Houston on this show.

00:06I think the Cougars win this entire thing when it's all said and done.

00:11But that's why I'm the real most unbiased man in the history of sports media.

00:16Listen, you all can fight, you all know the truth.

00:19Arizona team total, 64 and a half.

00:22I like the Wildcats to score in this game.

00:26This team total is almost a carbon copy of what we saw BYU's.

00:30Arizona, offensive efficiency wise in BYU, about the same.

00:34Pace, much different.

00:35I think we're getting a bye low spot due to a dominant Cougars effort defensively, which

00:39they needed.

00:40Because they were unacceptable on that side of the basketball against Colorado.

00:44I think Arizona, I don't know if they win, I don't know if they cover, they get 65 points

00:48in this game.

00:49Yeah, you might be right.

00:50I like Arizona plus the points.

00:51I just like the way they're playing right now, Caleb Love with 27 points.

00:54I understand.

00:55Dominant defense in terms of Houston, they've won 12 straight by an average margin, a victory

01:00of nine and a half points per game, battle tested on the road.

01:03All they do is step up, baby.

01:05But I think matchup wise, I think Arizona does match up very well with them.

01:09I'm going over Caleb Love today.

01:11I'm taking the six and a half.

01:12I don't know if they win, but I think they can keep it within the number, coach.

01:16See, I look at it as a coach.

01:18And to me, you got to go against a warden on a zero day prep.

01:21You can't practice.

01:23You got an hour shoot around and the shoot around was probably, I don't know what time

01:26the game is, but your shoot around is about five hours beforehand and you got to go against

01:30this team.

01:31The team that Emmanuel Sharp is now looks healthy with the ankle injury.

01:34A team that's got guys that can get buckets.

01:36To me, it's Houston minus the points.

01:38I think they jumped.

01:40When I saw what they did to BYU was insane, getting 41 points.

01:45And I think that's the thing that's scary about Houston.

01:48No one wants to talk about, Kevin, is offensively.

01:51They're way more dangerous.

01:53It's not just Jamal Shad or whatever.

01:55Get the ball sasser and clear out.

01:58They got multiple guards, Kevin, that can go get a bucket.

02:01I just want to say something, you know, it just thought about it.

02:04If somehow some way Arizona does win the big 12 championship, big 12 home by Arizona, Arizona

02:10state stepping up.

02:11Yeah.

02:12You're number one.

02:13I'm just saying, you know, in terms of college football, you talk about, you know, oh, that's

02:16Texas.

02:17That's Houston.

02:18You know, all the big boys in here, two teams from Arizona that are stepping up in championship

02:23games.

02:24Well, no, but you know, it's incredible.

02:25We see, right?

02:26Like the team that has to defend the big 12's honor is the Houston team that just showed

02:30up two years ago and been running through this conference for you.

02:32Like, no, but listen, I'm not trying to rewrite history on, you know, Bill Self in Kansas

02:39or Baylor.

02:40Right.

02:41But I'm just, you know, these teams are showing up and making some noise here.

02:44Undoubtedly.

02:45Count it.
