Masters Drama, Aggie Spring Football, and Sabres Break Through

from SportsIQ with Larry Smith · host Rise Above Productions & Revision Sound

Rory McIlroy adds another chapter to Masters history with a dramatic Sunday finish at Augusta, securing back-to-back green jackets and cementing his place among the game’s all-time greats. The guys break down the rollercoaster weekend, including Justin Rose’s tough loss and what it all means for the future of golf. Andrew Monaco, the voice of Texas A&M, joins the show to talk Aggie football heading into spring. From quarterback continuity with Marcel Reed to the evolving culture under Mike Elko, Andrew shares insight on what’s next for the program—and why expectations are rising in College Station. On the hardwood, the transfer portal is moving slower than expected, but Louisville makes a splash while programs rethink big-money roster builds. Plus, a look at Texas programs surging across college sports. Rachel Lenzi of the Buffalo News joins to discuss the Sabres’ long-awaited return to the playoffs. After a 15-year drought, Buffalo is back—and playing with confidence, consistency, and belief. What’s fueling the turnaround, and can they make a deep run? In the NBA, the regular season wraps with playoff positioning set, coaching changes in Milwaukee, and Charles Barkley sounding off on load management and the 65-game rule. Today’s Moment of Awe:We go back to 1997, when a 21-year-old Tiger Woods dominated Augusta to win his first Masters—by 12 shots.
