Bryson goes back to SMU, There are TGL Betting Odds, and an old Billy on Tour

The Shotgun Start

It's back to normal on this Monday episode, as there are no victories to celebrate to start this week. Things start with Andy lamenting about the latest Bears loss, a disappointing effort against the Cardinals in Arizona. His Illini also lost to Minnesota this week, leading to a discussion about P.J. Fleck's gameday attire in the cold weather months of college football season. Brendan notes that he's skeptical of when "Movember" became a thing as the calendar flips to November before briefly mentioning a Jameis Winston-led Browns loss. It's all golf talk from there, as Andy and Brendan recap the LPGA's Toto Japan Classic, which was not in Africa, and the Challenge Tour event in Mallorca, Spain. Bryson DeChambeau's triumphant return to Dallas is covered after his appearance with the U.S. Open trophy at the SMU football game. The two mention a report from The Sun regarding a PGA Tour-PIF deal nearing completion as well. Brendan looks ahead to this week's World Wide Technology Championship, where Champs Tour staple Billy Andrade is playing on a sponsor exemption. To wrap this episode up, the TGL is covered extensively. Producer PJ hosts a guessing game about player descriptions on the league's official website, leading to a discussion about Lucas Glover's career in the early 2000s. Andy then shares the first-ever set of TGL odds, as you can now bet on who will be the league's inaugural champion.
