| 0:00.0 | Big 12 tournament championship day is here. He's Matthew Postens. I'm Pete Mundo. We are Heartland |
| 0:06.7 | College sports covering the Big 12. We have the chalk. It is Arizona. It is Houston for the |
| 0:14.0 | big 12 tournament title. Please make sure you are subscribed to the channel. If you are new on the |
| 0:19.2 | podcast also, we appreciate you leaving a five-star |
