00:00You look at this conference, they talked about this a lot over the last two days when we were in Las Vegas, was this idea of this is a conference with a lot of parody.
00:11You know, you don't have necessarily one or two teams that you have to top that you think that really could kind of maybe, you know, push themselves to being in the discussion for a national championship.
00:20You don't have that this year. You have a lot of teams, you got six, seven, eight teams.
00:23They feel like everyone can contend for the title, but no one's nearly, I would say, a runaway favorite.
00:28So as much as Utah was picked by the media to be the favorite, I still think there's some question marks there.
00:33I still think that Kansas, Kansas State, which were also picked to finish high, Arizona, all the teams that were picked to finish in the top half, I still think have some question marks.
00:42And I don't think it's necessarily given they're going to run away and win this conference.
00:46So I think there's an opportunity to get a dark horse to come in there, maybe someone else to come in and sweep it and get the title.
00:53But I do believe this is going to be a fun conference to watch because there aren't going to be those runaways, the Alabamas, the Georgias, Clemson, whoever.
01:02You're going to have a couple of teams that maybe get an opportunity to maybe surprise some people.
