Good morning, everyone. Welcome to the Early Edge. My name is Cian Najat, and we are brought to you by BedMGM. Make it legendary. We got Jason Pogwist in here. Liddy is in here. Ryan Coffter, Aaron Bailey, Jeff Stenberg. Thanks for being in here. Richard Pierre Rojo. Hit the like button if you could. Let's see if we like our recap screen. I think we did okay in football. I come through with my pick. Larry comes through with his. Overall, though, three and four as the sports line pick comes in but we don't cash any of

0:38.2

the other picks three wins four losses obviously got to do better than that and i think we can

0:43.1

just do that this is a really cool tuesday crew we've got buckets we've got saxony we've got

0:51.2

jeff hockman and tom cassali what a mix i absolutely love to see it. Jeff, how are you doing today? I'm doing great, Sia. How are you, buddy? I'm doing great. Buckets. How are you doing, sir? I'm doing a little bit rough today. Full disclosure. I spent four hours at the dental office yesterday getting emergency dental work done. So talking is not the most optimal thing in the world.

1:11.7

If I get stuck, though, CNA knows exactly why I'm taking my best bet, so he'll give all the

1:15.8

reasoning that... That's right. That's right. I know exactly why we're going to Austria versus

1:21.9

I'm not even going to try with the other two words there. Tom Cassidy, are you here for college basketball?

1:28.2

You're here for college football. We do have some college football this morning, but you're here

1:31.4

with a college basketball pick, correct? Yeah, I'm here for college basketball. I had that

1:36.5

laughing gas once when I had a root canal. My wife said it was the most pleasant I ever was.

1:41.4

She's still trying to buy it on the black market.

1:45.3

Zach Simony, how you doing today? And I got to ask because people want to know,

1:48.9

is it college basketball today? Is it NBA? What are you bringing to the early edge?

1:53.8

I'm bringing an NBA. You know, one of the hardest things on the West Coast is getting

1:58.3

your plays ready for the early edge. So I do my best, but my capping, it takes a while, especially this time of year with so many sports going on. So you'll see a lot of my picks on the site later on in the day. But early in the morning, I've got a prop for you. But I am on the leaderboard in NFL and college football hoping to maintain for that. It's been a great year for both sports, and let's rock. Absolutely no surprise that you're on top of the leaderboard across multiple sports. If you're not following Zach Simony on sports line, you're not following one of the best cappers. So make sure you're dialed in to him. Hey, Tom, real quick, before we get to our official picks, can I get a lien? We got Western Michigan, Northern Illinois.

2:35.5

We've got Aquin Bowling Green, and on CBS Sports Network tonight, we got UMass, Ohio.

2:40.0

Any of those three games that you have any lien whatsoever, because I know we don't have an official college football pick.

2:48.2

Tom?

2:48.9
