College Golf Talk Golf Channel

On this episode of College Golf Talk, Burko and Brentley recap the NCAA Women's Championship, from stroke-play thoughts to an all-Pac-12 semifinal round to UCLA's run under first-year coach Alicia Um Holmes to finally, Stanford's third NCAA title of the match-play era – and Rachel Heck's fitting close to her college career. Then they pivot to the men's championship, which begins Friday. They talk favorites, sleepers and more. Plus, there are some La Costa takes and some coaching news.

Burko and Brentley hop on for a late-night recording – and Brentley forgets to switch over to his actual mic, so apologies for the broken AirPod audio at times – just hours removed from a wild Wednesday of NCAA Division I men's golf regionals. They break down all the chaos, from Arizona State's "embarrassing" exit as a top seed and similar disappointment from a whopping four of the six No. 2 seeds. Plenty of kudos are given, especially to Stanford and its star seniors, who survived at home. Burko gets his revenge on Brentley in their picks. And then they shift to the NCAA Women's Championship, which starts Thursday. They look at the favorites, throw some other contenders in the hat, and Brentley offers up his early-wave sleeper – that really shouldn't be a sleeper. Finally, they get completely off the rails about trading cards of college golfers and Burko gets nerdy about grading and rare finds. This was a fun one!

In this episode of College Golf Talk, Steve Burkowski and Brentley Romine digest all the happenings from this week's NCAA D-I women's regionals, including the top performers, the close calls and the disappointments. There is also an apology from Brentley to the folks at Traditions Club in Bryan, Texas, and more goose-poop talk on the back end than one could've expected a week ago.

In this 100th episode of College Golf Talk, Burko and Brentley break down all six NCAA D-I men's golf regionals. They discuss the top teams – Auburn, Vandy, UNC, etc. – and some sleepers while offering their picks of who will make it through to La Costa. Lots of insight and analysis in this one!

In this special episode of College Golf Talk, Brentley Romine catches up with Texas head coach John Fields, who first talks about how his Longhorns have responded to several new rules this spring (phone bans, more workouts, etc.) to win Big 12s and enter the NCAA Austin Regional with lots of momentum. They then pivot to some regional memories before shifting to the upcoming NCAA Championship at La Costa. Fields, who has been instrumental in getting the NCAAs to La Costa, breaks down the golf course and his big plans for a potential Omaha of college golf. Finally, Fields tells the story of when he first watched Scottie Scheffler hit a golf ball, plus the pivotal moment early in Scheffler's college career that helped mold him into the champion we see today. This one was a good one!

In what has become an annual tradition, Burko and Brentley welcome USC head coach Justin Silverstein on the pod to break down all six of the 2024 NCAA Division I women's golf regional fields. They talk his Trojans, but also dive into the favorites, potential sleepers and maybe even a few teams in upset alert.
