But yeah, just in crazy, 39 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 5: crazy weekend. 40 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 6: Hawks obviously limped out with a whimper having to play 41 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 6: a road game in Birmingham, but it was Yeah, it 42 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 6: was another one insane, insane weekend. And I just I 43 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 6: feel all of the emotions right now. 44 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm I'm personally devastated for for my wife. Sucks 45 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 4: for Lexington and Kentucky fans and not. You know, I'm 46 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 4: lucky enough that we're financially we don't need she doesn't 47 00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 4: need to work, and you know, we don't need the 48 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 4: money for the bar, but the people that work for her. 49 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 4: You know, a lot of a lot of times people 50 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 4: in the bar industry. There are some wonderful bartenders and 51 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 4: bar managers that do that as their career, but there 52 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 4: are a lot of people that come through the bar 53 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 4: industry as a transition period in their life or just 54 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 4: a struggling financially, especially right now with inflation and some 55 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 4: of the tough things people are going through. And you know, 56 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 4: a lot of my now really good friends are could 57 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 4: you like it? It's crazy the amount of money that 58 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 4: would that's of these bars would make and the bartenders 59 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 4: would make if Kentucky wins. This is the entire state 60 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 4: cares about Kentucky basketball. That's it. And I moved here 61 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 4: in twenty eighteen. They have not made a second weekend. 62 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 4: This is the first tournament win in years. And then 63 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 4: they couldn't finish the job against Kansas State. So it 64 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 4: sucks personally seeing and they're like the just the financial 65 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 4: a plications you can even go look at the small 66 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,799 Speaker 4: schools like Fairley Dickinson winning a game, you know, even 67 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,799 Speaker 4: like San Diego State. Then that money for every win 68 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 4: you get goes to schools for like six years, and 69 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 4: some of these small schools that could be huge for 70 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 4: their budget. And so watching personally the just the financial 71 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 4: implications and then the betting TCU. How about that shot, 72 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 4: one shining moment that should be the one shining moment 73 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 4: on a loop. That TCU shot unbelievable. Bald had another number. 74 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 4: He just let it roll up and hit. It's a 75 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 4: prayer with point. I guess it was kind of justice 76 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 4: in a way. They found er point seven seconds left, 77 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 4: and I was like, not only I don't I don't 78 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 4: think tc could have won it all without Lampkin, but 79 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 4: not all my TCU future done. They're not going to 80 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 4: cover now. Gun Zaga drags drains both free throws, and 81 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 4: I expect these to just inbound it and then go home. 82 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 4: No ball says I'm gonna hit a shot here. Millions 83 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 4: and millions of dollars, especially the last game of the 84 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 4: weekend with all that money changing hands, and it was 85 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 4: the weekend of the under. A little overreaction on Sunday, 86 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 4: but tight rims. You could see that just with your eyes. 87 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 4: And then a new ball. Some some of the teams 88 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 4: don't didn't use that ball, and you saw that in 89 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 4: some of the shooting numbers. Mike No A ten left, 90 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 4: Your beloved A ten is out. Mike Wildcats are out. 91 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 4: Bjay's Hawks are out. How do we gin to go? Yeah? 92 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: I got slapped around in terms of my bets the 93 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 2: ball rim combo and it leading to two thirds of 94 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: the game's cashing unders. It's just classic nc double A. 95 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 2: It's like if you showed up at the Masters one year. 96 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 2: It's like, everybody has to play with this ball. 97 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 3: That slice is really bad, good luck with it. 98 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 2: It's like, what the I don't understand how they can 99 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 2: screw up something as simple as that, or force teams 100 00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 2: to play with a ball that they played with once 101 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: or twice in the entire season. But that's kind of 102 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: right on par for the NCAA screwing up something that 103 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:09,040 Speaker 2: doesn't even need to be adjusted. I agree with BJ's 104 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 2: take on Princeton coming out of nowhere, like I like 105 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: them this year. 106 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 3: I bet them plenty this year. 107 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 2: I thought to myself, all right, if they're gonna upset 108 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 2: Arizona or make any kind of run a Woma's got 109 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 2: to be huge. Scores twenty four points in two games, 110 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: so it just goes to show. It's like, you know, 111 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 2: sometimes other people step up, sometimes teams go cold. I 112 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 2: still I wasn't even involved from a single game bet 113 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: on the Purdue Fairly Dickinson game, But it's like, what 114 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,799 Speaker 2: are we doing here as a sport If Fairley Dickinson, 115 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 2: who's one of the worst interior defenses ever make the 116 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 2: tournament against a National player of the year seven to 117 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,839 Speaker 2: four to win, Like, it just doesn't make any sense. 118 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 2: So it's like it's time to hump the brakes a 119 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: little bit. Reset to the second weekend, be like, Okay, 120 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 2: first weekend was crazy. There was some just some things 121 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 2: that you can never predict. 122 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 3: But we actually are going to end up with some 123 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:58,679 Speaker 3: really fun. 124 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 2: Matchups, some contrasts of styles, some really good offenses against 125 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 2: really good defense. 126 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 3: I'm excited about it. 127 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: And then I was just mentioning the BJA from my 128 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 2: own portfolio. I snuck in a three hundred to one 129 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 2: FAU bet in early February, so I'm gonna look to 130 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 2: hedge out of that. See if I get a little money, 131 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 2: I got Creighton. That was my biggest one. They to 132 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 2: me from my portfolio. They played the best in the 133 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 2: first two games, and it was really nice to see 134 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 2: them just attack from a game script perspective, where we 135 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 2: talked about this on the live show Stuck, It's like, 136 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 2: just go after Purdue, eat them up inside, and they 137 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:33,479 Speaker 2: end up scoring eighty. 138 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 3: Five points, So that was nice. 139 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 2: I also have San Diego State, Arkansas, and Texas on 140 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 2: the futures as well, so just gonna lick my wounds 141 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 2: with some losses over the weekend. But overall, I agree 142 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 2: with your assessment where it seemed like chalk was kind 143 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 2: of raining, But overall we. 144 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 3: Basically got some of the madness we were looking for. 145 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 2: And the last thing, like from the Sunday Live Show 146 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 2: all the way to the tip off of Drake versus Miami, 147 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 2: was all right, if a mere plays, he's going to 148 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 2: be limited. You know, trying to speculate on injuries is 149 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: so risky in general, but in college sports it's even riskier. 150 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 2: He ends up with thirty one rebounds in two games 151 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: and they you know, cruise to. 152 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 3: The second weekend. 153 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 2: So just goes to show, don't overlever yourself, don't get 154 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: two in love with any particular play, particularly if it's 155 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 2: based in player availability. 156 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 4: Yeah. Oh, I wouldn't take cruise though. 157 00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 3: I mean well the second game I should say was 158 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 3: that second game? 159 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean also, I mean Drake, their best player 160 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 4: goes one of thirteen and one of eleven from three. Drake's 161 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 4: one of the teams that brand new ball for them. 162 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 4: Remember the legendary Nate Walters from South Dakota State. I 163 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 4: sure do so. He follows me on Twitter shout out Nate, 164 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,559 Speaker 4: and then I tweeted out you always have the story 165 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 4: of how tight certain rims are at different locations. But 166 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 4: the new ball for some teams throws another wrench into it. 167 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 4: This year three point percentage at thirty one percent so 168 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 4: far after being up across the board during the season. 169 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 4: Small sample size, but only worth monitoring. Nate responds, just 170 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 4: crazy the biggest games of the season they use a 171 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 4: brand new basketball. Just to echo her sentiments there and 172 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 4: like some teams like, it's just in mind boggling, but 173 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 4: whatever it is, what it is.

We'll just 189 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 4: touch very briefly on initial looks or thoughts on those games, 190 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 4: and then get out of here very quick episode. But favorite, 191 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 4: let's let's before we get their favorite moment of the weekend. 192 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 4: For me, it was I was like Thursday I had 193 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,319 Speaker 4: it was a wash. Friday was a bad day. Saturday 194 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 4: was a good day. Sunday was a wash. I basically 195 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 4: washed overall. But favorite moment will had to be TCU 196 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 4: that shot that was an incredible cover and you gotta 197 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 4: love it. That was my favorite moment. Least favorite moment 198 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 4: besides Kentucky losing it was the Drake meltdown. That was 199 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 4: just so sad to watch just make one shot. They 200 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 4: couldn't even cover, Like I was like, they're gonna win. 201 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 4: So that was unfortunate. But BJ got a favorite and 202 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:50,959 Speaker 4: least favorite moment of the weekend. 203 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 6: I'd say my favorite moment was the Furman shot just 204 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 6: to kick off the tournament. That was just an unbelievable, 205 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 6: insane scenario that happened. And I was, you know, I 206 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 6: was at the game Eames and des Moines, uh you know, 207 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 6: a media row, and they put the game up on 208 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 6: the big screen and so you had just like fifteen 209 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 6: thousand people just going insane right when they when Kya 210 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 6: Clark just threw the ball right to mid court for 211 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 6: no reason and then firm hit the shot. 212 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 4: So that was a time out. They had a timeout. 213 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 4: I know they had a time out. They called timeout 214 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 4: after that. 215 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 6: It was crazy, Yeah, just in insane scenario just to 216 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 6: kick off the madness. 217 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,719 Speaker 4: Timeout did we just so? 218 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:40,680 Speaker 6: We just saw So that's probably my favorite moment. 219 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 4: And I agree with you. 220 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 6: Drake was very very sad just going out with the 221 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 6: whimper and not making a shot down the stretch and 222 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,319 Speaker 6: just yeah. 223 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 3: Very very sad. 224 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 4: Yeah. The by the way, Virginia, Yeah, Virginia should get 225 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 4: a lifetime pass to the tournament. They've won a national 226 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 4: title in over time, lost was sixteen, lost to a 227 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 4: thirteen at the buzzer, and lost to a fourteen all 228 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 4: in five years, and then the other tournament was canceled. 229 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 5: I also saw that they've done. Also saw Purdue has 230 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 5: lost to all. 231 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,400 Speaker 6: But two seeds in the tourna against the eight and 232 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 6: the fourteen are the only seeds they haven't lost to 233 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 6: in the tournament now, which is kind of funny in itself. 234 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 6: So they deserve a lifetime pass as well to come 235 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:20,839 Speaker 6: into the tournament and get upset. 236 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 4: I think Purdue's got a top three seed eight times. 237 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 4: They had eleven total wins, which is pretty sad. Yeah, 238 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 4: Purdue was We should mention that. Shout out Fairley Dickinson. 239 00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 4: Only Knights of Colupus FDU not going away another huge 240 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 4: win one of those oh look Jim comparisons where it's like, 241 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 4: look at look at the Purdue gym and then look 242 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 4: at look at MACKI compared to the FDU gym, and 243 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 4: it's those are always fun. It was last year with 244 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 4: Saint Peter's in Kentucky. But Purdue, I mean everyone called 245 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 4: it and then it came true that Purdue was a 246 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 4: fraud and they weren'ting. They looked petrified. They no one 247 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 4: wanted to make a shot, no one to take a shot. 248 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 4: That was crazy to watch, and they just felt the 249 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 4: weight of the moment on their shoulders. It looked like 250 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 4: the entire game and I mean credit to that after you. 251 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 4: It wasn't just that for due Melto, but they they 252 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 4: look scared. And how does Zach edy His final points 253 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 4: came with nine minutes to go in the game against 254 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 4: the smallest team in the country. Wasn't a great weekend 255 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 4: for the Matt Paynter narrative? 256 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,040 Speaker 2: And that we'll do it? 257 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 4: Do you believe it? 258 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: For just a second time ever? 259 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: Of sixteen beats a one. 260 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,199 Speaker 4: My favorite or and or least favorite moment of the weekend. 261 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 3: I mean, Furman was also there for me. 262 00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 2: I tucked up the dens a lot, and to steal 263 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 2: a win out of the jaws of. 264 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:58,040 Speaker 1: Defeat was pretty great. Totally unpredictable. 265 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 2: That was That was probably my most shocked moment of 266 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 2: the whole first round. For the weekends, I was kind 267 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 2: of poking holes in Kansas resume in the last month 268 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 2: of the season, and that was the only region that 269 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 2: I nailed, you know, all for the Sweet sixteen teams 270 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 2: getting that Arkansas upset. So it was nice to see 271 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 2: Arkansas actually put it together not melt down at the end. 272 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,840 Speaker 2: In terms of frustrations for me, I had a Marquette 273 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 2: ticket and to watch Kulik play so poorly when if 274 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 2: he just plays a regular game, they probably win that 275 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 2: but it's like it was. It was difficult to watch, 276 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 2: particularly with his teammates really trying their best to keep 277 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 2: them alive with the three ball late in the second. 278 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: Half, and he just absolutely disappeared. 279 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 2: So that was probably my most frustrating moment as somebody 280 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 2: with Marquette. 281 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 3: Futures, but also just in general. 282 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 2: I was a believer in that team and I thought 283 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 2: they could get, you know, back to MSG where they 284 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 2: had all that momentum of winning the biggest tournament so 285 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 2: that was kind of. 286 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 3: To let them. 287 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot, I mean a lot. Look, when you're 288 00:13:55,160 --> 00:13:56,640 Speaker 4: when you're investing in the futures, a lot of times 289 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 4: you got to escape again with a game, you have 290 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 4: to also be healthy and it's just single game variants. 291 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 4: You gotta make threes and your opponent can't make a 292 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 4: ton of threes. In the case of Marquette, I do 293 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,319 Speaker 4: I think Kullak wasn't he I mean he wasn't healthy. 294 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 4: He hurt his hand in that initial game and I 295 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 4: just think he wasn't the same since over the past 296 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 4: two games. But credit to is Owe in Michigan State. 297 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 4: They had a pretty good scout and they I think 298 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 4: they played very well defensively, even though there were some 299 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 4: exploitable holes there. But yeah, that was unfortunate to see 300 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 4: Marquette go down. But we have so futures portfolio. We'll 301 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 4: do some giveaways the end of the show. By the way, 302 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 4: we had TCU, Indiana and Marquette who are gone, and 303 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 4: we have Yukon and Creighton left.

Kansas State versus Michigan State Kandastate opened 345 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 4: to favor but flipped to Michigan State favorite minus one. 346 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 4: Florida Atlantic Tennessee. Tennessee's a five and a half point favorite. 347 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 4: They after they pretty much just men versus boys for 348 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 4: lack of a better term, Duke just completely outphysical dem Gonzaga. 349 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 4: Ucla the rematch that a lot of people wanted, not me, 350 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 4: so I wanted to see you, but Ucla wan and 351 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 4: a half point favorite. There injuries to watch for Ucla. 352 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:19,280 Speaker 4: We'll see if David Singleton was in the in the 353 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 4: handshake line, but look like at a bad spring, so 354 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 4: we'll see if he can go. You say they already 355 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 4: lost a key player and Bonus banged up as well. 356 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 4: That's the Thursday slate. Pretty good slate on paper. Friday, 357 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 4: some bigger spreads. Alabama is a seven point favorite against 358 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 4: San Diego State, Houston's a seven point favorite against Miami, 359 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 4: Creighton ten point favorite against Princeton, and then the X 360 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 4: versus the texts Texas four point favorite over Xavier. Let's 361 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:53,360 Speaker 4: start Thursday are Yukon, Kansas State, Spardy Thought, Atlantic, Tennessee, Gonzaga, Ucla, 362 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 4: just one thought. If you have an early lean or 363 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 4: just a thought on the matchups, we just start with you. 364 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't I like Connecticut against ark So I 365 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 6: think it's a really good matchup with them in Arkansas. 366 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 6: They obviously got away with some you know, some poor 367 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 6: shooting from Illinois. 368 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,920 Speaker 4: You know, Illinois had eight. 369 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 5: Open threes in that game, which is, you know, not 370 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 5: a great thing. 371 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,200 Speaker 3: That's kind of a dangerous game to play. 372 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,719 Speaker 6: But again, Illinois was a very bad three point shooting 373 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 6: all season long, and then against Kansas, you know, they 374 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 6: just got to the rim whenever they wanted to. 375 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 5: That's not really going to happen against Yukon. 376 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:25,360 Speaker 6: So Arkansas, who doesn't take a lot of three point 377 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 6: shots and also has a very average defensive rebound and team, 378 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 6: is not really that great of. 379 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 5: A matchup against Yukon. So I've already bet the Huskies. 380 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 4: And minus three. It's up to three and a half now. 381 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 6: But yeah, I'd grab Yukon when you can, because I 382 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 6: think that line might close around four and a half. 383 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,479 Speaker 4: I agree. I think Yukon is just a better version 384 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,479 Speaker 4: of Arkansas, especially since like Nick Smith Junior is just 385 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 4: is he Yeah, what's going on now? Yeah, there's like 386 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 4: But I think Yukon could defend at the rim and 387 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 4: that's what you need to do against Arkansas and you 388 00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 4: can completely suffocate them. So I think the run is 389 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 4: over for mister muss Buss and a shirt stays on 390 00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 4: on Thursday night, Mike any early thoughts on Thursday, just. 391 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 2: To kind of piggyback on that I've been mentioning leading 392 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 2: in that they needed Hawkins to play better. He ends 393 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 2: up canning four to five threes against Saint Mary's. If 394 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 2: he can add that on the perimeter, I think they're 395 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 2: perfectly balanced to win this whole tournament. So I agree 396 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 2: with that play. I like Gonzaga. I'm gonna take him 397 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 2: on the money line against UCLA. I think UCLA's injury 398 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 2: issues are going to rear their head. I know that 399 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 2: you know Singleton was walking, you know, or singletary after 400 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 2: the game. So even if he plays, given the loss 401 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 2: of Jalen Clark and the fact that you know there's 402 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 2: one team in the Pac twelve that plays the same 403 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 2: brand of basketball as Arizona. 404 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 3: They went one to two against the Wildcats. 405 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,199 Speaker 2: Gonzaga is as hot as they can be entering you 406 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: know this game. I think they proved it against a really. 407 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 3: Difficult opponent in TCU. 408 00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 2: Timmy's playing his best basketball really up the entire season, 409 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 2: and so I'm gonna go with the Bulldogs here. 410 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, Drew Timmy was amazing. Sea Zaga fans are just 411 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 4: any fans on Twitter. We sweat futures, we sweat best, 412 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 4: we have fun. I don't hate your team. I don't 413 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 4: hate Drew Timmy. That's what makes Twitter fun, by the way, 414 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 4: in those games. But shout out to Gonzaga fans and 415 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 4: Timmy especially for a hell of a game. Mike, you 416 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 4: have You've had a couple of funerals planned. 417 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: I ever, apparently Tennessee that will never die. 418 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 4: Then apparently so is uh? Are you Florida actually they 419 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,880 Speaker 4: should they wear their black warm ups or the funeral? 420 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 4: Or are you? Are you finally buying into the balls? 421 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 4: I think Florida is good matchup. I think six too 422 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 4: many I'm gonna take. I'm gonna be on Daa's there 423 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:47,320 Speaker 4: by the way. 424 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the points I'm gonna take the money line. 425 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna keep swinging haymakers at this Tennessee team 426 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 2: until they go down, I agree, or they win. 427 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 4: The national title title. Like, hey, you can't be wrong 428 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 4: seven times, so you can only be wrong six times. 429 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 4: So at least there's that. But I think I think 430 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 4: there's too many points. I think there's a Floridlantic team 431 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 4: that can match their physicality. I think Duke. And by 432 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 4: the way, bad week, bad week for the ACC, bad 433 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,160 Speaker 4: week for the Big Ten, it's just Michigan State left 434 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 4: and the ACC is just Miami left. I don't think 435 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 4: many people are that surprised of those two results. Good 436 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 4: weekend for the SEC overall, good weekend for the Big 437 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 4: East overall. I think that those were the two winners 438 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 4: as far as conferences are concerned. But I don't think 439 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,479 Speaker 4: that Tennessee can do the same thing to Duke. Excuse 440 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 4: me too, Florid Atlantic that they did the Duke, because 441 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:42,880 Speaker 4: I think Floridatlantic more experienced, bigger, deeper, more athletic, which 442 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 4: is weird to say against Duke. But Duke's very young 443 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 4: and raw, and I think that they just they just 444 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 4: got bodied in that game. I don't think Tennessee can 445 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,879 Speaker 4: do that against Florida Atlantic. And generally this is a 446 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 4: Tennessee team that you don't want to back as a favorite. 447 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 4: It's just their their offense is still very limited. So 448 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 4: I think that's just too many points. I think Florida 449 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 4: Atlantic is a live dog there. And then it's funny 450 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 4: you see the recency bias, especially in the tournament, even 451 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 4: though it's end of the year. You think markets are 452 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,360 Speaker 4: so efficient. You got people in the sportsbook on Sunday 453 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 4: that we're wearing undergear under jerseys, and you saw all 454 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 4: the unders come down. But so yeah, we saw that 455 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 4: with totals. But look at just the sentiment on Tennessee. Right, 456 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 4: Tennessee barely sweaks by Louisiana. Everyone says, Duke, the whole 457 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 4: world is on Dukee. Tennessee stinks, Tennessee's awful, Tennessee's a fraud, right, 458 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 4: Duke looks great. So Tennessee dominates them, and now you're 459 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 4: hearing Tennessee's legit. Tennessee can win it all. One game, 460 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,159 Speaker 4: one result from fraud to win it all. So I 461 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 4: think that's a little baked into this line and a 462 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:56,719 Speaker 4: little overreaction to what Tennessee did against what I thought 463 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,199 Speaker 4: was a fairly fraudulent Duke team. So I like the 464 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 4: Owls there. Moving on to Friday, let's see, and I 465 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,119 Speaker 4: think I think Tennessee's still five and a half. Let 466 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 4: me say I should, I should talk about the most 467 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 4: up to date lines. Let's see. I'm gonna put that. 468 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 4: I'm gonna bet that right now if it is, and 469 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 4: then put that in the app. If it is five 470 00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 4: and a half, it is all right, we could bet 471 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 4: that Florida Atlantic. It is Owls. I think Michigan State too, 472 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,720 Speaker 4: but they are moving quick through out there, actually a 473 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,720 Speaker 4: two point favorite against Kansas State, who I'm still not 474 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 4: a believer, and they made a bunch of prayer threes 475 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 4: and unfortunately Reeves started out oh thirteen for Kentucky. And 476 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 4: one one final note that I should mention to is 477 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 4: don't blame kids. They have bad days. Man, You and 478 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 4: I have bad days at work, and they're gonna wear 479 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 4: that and think about it the rest of their life. 480 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 4: And we're gonna move on and bet the Sweet sixteen. 481 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 4: So it's unfortunate day for Reeves and it sucks for 482 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,719 Speaker 4: him most importantly. Friday, quick thoughts and then we'll get 483 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 4: out of here. San Diego State Alabama seven point favorite, 484 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 4: Houston seven point favorite over Miami, Creighton double digit favorite 485 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 4: over Princeton, and Texas the four favorite over Xavier. Again, 486 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 4: they should be pretty fun, Mike. Any thoughts there before 487 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:03,960 Speaker 4: we get out of here. 488 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like San Diego State plus the points. I 489 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 2: think they needed to break out of the Mountain West funk. 490 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 2: They did it. Their defense was dominant. It got better 491 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 2: from the round sixty four to the round of thirty two, 492 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 2: you know, facing Furman and absolutely putting them in a 493 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 2: choke hold. I think bodes well for playing an Alabama 494 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 2: team that is top twenty and so many offensive metrics. 495 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 2: I think they can muck this game up. So I'm 496 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 2: happy to take the points. They obviously, you know, to 497 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 2: go out here and throw out the game plan that 498 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,800 Speaker 2: they need. They need Bradley to score twenty points and 499 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 2: be efficient to win outright, But in general, I think 500 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:40,159 Speaker 2: this is going to be a lower scoring game. If 501 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:41,880 Speaker 2: they can keep it in the sixties, I think six 502 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:43,880 Speaker 2: and a half is more than enough to get it done. 503 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 3: Against the spread. 504 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, you get a seven out there now, and I 505 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 4: think that they can What do you need to do 506 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,359 Speaker 4: against Alabama. It's rim and through it. They want to 507 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 4: get to the rim, they want to shoot threes, and 508 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 4: San Diego State does a really good job of defending both. 509 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 4: And I think that they can slow this game up 510 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 4: to their tempo. I tend to think, especially as the 511 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 4: tournament goes on, when you have a team that wants 512 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 4: to slow it up versus a team that prefers to 513 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 4: run it, that the team that wants to slow it 514 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,480 Speaker 4: up has a better chance of controlling the tempo at 515 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 4: this stage. So yeah, I think that they have the defense. 516 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 4: I don't know if they have the Bradley. You'll have 517 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,640 Speaker 4: to get red hot down the stretch to pull off 518 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 4: the upset. So I don't know if they'll have enough 519 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 4: offense when it's all said and done to move on. 520 00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 4: But I do think that they can certainly hang with Alabama. 521 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 4: Bjy quick thoughts on Friday. 522 00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 6: Well, I have some breaking news here that people are 523 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 6: gonna hear later, but per John Fanta, barring a chant 524 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 6: late late change of heart, Ed Cooley will be the 525 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 6: next head coach at Georgetown. WO Yeah, that's crazy. That 526 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 6: doesn't seem like a I don't know. 527 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 3: I saw this morning he put his house on the market. 528 00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, so yeah, But anyway, I agree with Mike. I 529 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 6: like San Diego State plus seven. If you look at 530 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 6: a lot of what Alabama's done. Obviously, you know San 531 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 6: Diego State it's not a big three and shooting team. 532 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 5: Obviously, if you look at Alabama's metrics, they're one of the. 533 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 6: Best three point defenses in the country, you know, playing 534 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 6: obviously in the SEC. But Alabama is a really bad 535 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 6: post defense. They're not very good at defending the mid range, 536 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 6: which are two areas really need to be good at 537 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 6: to defend San Diego State. 538 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 4: So I agree with Mike. 539 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 6: I think it's a pretty good matchup for them defensively. Obviously, 540 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 6: San Diego States flowing around twenty eight percent from beyond 541 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,359 Speaker 6: the arc. Alabama is one of the highest frequency three 542 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 6: point shooting teams in the country. So I like San 543 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:26,640 Speaker 6: Diego State as well. I'll be taking them plus seven. 544 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree. I agree there Houston laying seven against Miami, 545 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be a lot. I mean, yeah, 546 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 4: it seems like a lot because of Miami's guards, and 547 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 4: then about. 548 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:43,479 Speaker 6: Second half from Houston though, that was that was like, 549 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 6: oh wait, we're one of the best teams in the country. 550 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 5: Let's show everybody really quick, Yeah. 551 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 4: With with foul trouble too, and sass are limited and 552 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 4: shit hit he and shed on the on the bench 553 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 4: and Mark what nuts and yeah, they kind of flex 554 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 4: their their muscle and their depth and where obviously you 555 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 4: have one of the best adjusters in all of college 556 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 4: basketball as well, and they came out. Something to keep 557 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 4: in mind with Houston, like if Miami's up at the half, here, 558 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 4: I'll be looking for Houston second half again. Creating the 559 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 4: ten point favorite against Princeton feels about right. And then Xavier, 560 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 4: Texas one of the look to see where's Where's that game? 561 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 4: That game is in Kansas City feels like in another 562 00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 4: Xavier over. I feel like that game is the Texas 563 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 4: getting a lot of these Mucket up Big twelve games, 564 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 4: but I think at heart they want to run and 565 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 4: get out and they're posts. I mean, Dylan de Siou 566 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 4: is playing amazing right now. I feel like that game 567 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 4: could potentially be a sneaky over, but we'll have to 568 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,439 Speaker 4: break that down some more, but good stuff there.
