Speaker 1: The Big Bets on Campus Podcast podcast PODCA.

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 2: All right, here we go spreading the corn ten seconds

3
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 2: of matings. It's gonna just go throw up to the basket,

4
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: under the basket. It's the croup for the wind up miracle.

5
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 2: I chuck the water, hit that one from the parking lot.

6
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 3: Welcome to the Big Bets on Campus Podcast running by

7
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 3: bet MGM. The Three Men Weave are back for a

8
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 3: special edition BBOC episode, the Conference Tournament Preview Show. I

9
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 3: gonna talk about a handful of leaks today kicking off Wednesday,

10
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 3: and a couple on Thursday, as well as the meetingless

11
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 3: regular season comes to a halt and we dive into

12
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:53,199
Speaker 3: the deurodie season that is conference tournament season, especially for

13
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 3: many of these made low major leagues one big leagues.

14
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 3: Every game means the world. So we're gonna hop into

15
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 3: a ton of betting ales. We'll talk format, schedule, bracket

16
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 3: betting angles for opening round spots at least we know

17
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 3: the matchups. And then I think, most importantly, where the

18
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: value is in the futures market and is that the

19
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 3: best place to place your value or is it better

20
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 3: off for you to put money lines on each team

21
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 3: that you like and roll them forward. All that and

22
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 3: more ahead, Kai Jim, Let's get right into the action here,

23
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:29,279
Speaker 3: Big South bo Jangles Coliseum, Everyone's favorite venue, the newly

24
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 3: minted host of the Big South Conference tournament. The story

25
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 3: here is unc Asheville as the clear cut favorite they

26
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 3: really waltzed for during our season, four game lead on

27
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: the second third place finishers, long Wind Radford. There, Kyle,

28
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 3: we have odds scattered across a boarder on a multitude

29
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 3: of places. Market looks like it has. Unc Asheville has

30
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 3: a three to one favorite to win this Radford at

31
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 3: five to one. But how about Longwood at two and

32
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 3: a half to one despite being the slightly lower seed

33
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 3: at two twelve and six versus Ashville sixteen to two.

34
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: In the conference.

35
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 3: We'll talk about some of the lower seeded dogs here,

36
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 3: but any value here on these favorites in the Big South.

37
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you look to bet Longwinter Ashville if

38
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 4: you absolutely have to. In the Big South. I think

39
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 4: they kind of proved to be the class of the league.

40
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 4: I wouldn't bet on Radford the third shortest odds because

41
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 4: of their whole coaching situation. Nichols, their coach, recently got

42
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 4: a Dui. It's uncertain if he's going to be back

43
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 4: on the sidelines. A team I'm looking at as far

44
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 4: as long shots go is usc Upstate sixteen to one

45
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 4: in the market. They've beaten every single team seated above them.

46
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 4: They've beaten Nashville, they beat Longwood, they beat Radford, they

47
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 4: beat Gardner Webb, a team they're playing in the opening round.

48
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 4: If you're looking for long shot, that's the direction I

49
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 4: would go. But ultimately I think it's gonna come down

50
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 4: to Ashville or Longwood. Neutral floor certainly helps those gem

51
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 4: for long shots.

52
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, kay, I just want to follow up on the

53
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: Radford point. They lost five of seven down the stretch,

54
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: and part of that was before Nichols got suspended. But

55
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 2: I think the snowball just kept going without him, So

56
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 2: it is. I don't want to eliminate them, but like

57
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 2: when I'm looking at future odds, I'm basically kind of

58
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 2: taking them out and saying, all right, if I assume

59
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 2: the three seats not gonna win, where can I find

60
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: value there? That maybe be a part of why Longwood

61
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 2: has a little bit of value, sorry, why they're favored

62
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 2: over Asheville. I'm not going to bet Longwood, But why

63
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 2: they have got that favorite standing. The interesting part with

64
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 2: the Upstate point you make, Kai, is that they're already

65
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,040
Speaker 2: in the quarterfinals. It's not a team that you know,

66
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: at sixteen to one, they don't have to win four games.

67
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 2: They've just got to beat, like you said, three teams

68
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: that they've beaten before. Gardner Webb like to go to

69
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 2: Asheville after that, or play Ashville at bo Jangles and Charlotte,

70
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 2: and then who do you meet in the title? Hard

71
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 2: to say. I wanted to like Gardner Webb here because

72
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 2: I just that's a team I've kind of been in

73
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 2: on all season. But at plus five point fifty, having

74
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: to go through the one seed on that side of

75
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: the bracket, I don't love the number. There isn't anything, Matt,

76
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 2: that I'm actually going to bet from a future's perspective,

77
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 2: from the menu we're kind of looking at here.

78
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 4: Just to ad re quick, Matt, it's funny that Gardner

79
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 4: Web is five to one or plus five point fifty

80
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 4: and Upstate is six is sixteen hundred, sixteen to one.

81
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 4: Upstate just beat Gardner Web Upstate seven to one or

82
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 4: six and one last seven games. I think that the

83
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 4: pricing is a little bit mismatched.

84
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with that, although in that particular matchup,

85
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 3: I like betting Gardner Webb because of that kind of

86
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 3: immediate revenge angle. But still, yeah, like a macro of

87
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 3: you're betting a future of my macro pricing, I'm with you.

88
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 3: I think it's a little bit of a mispriced.

89
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 2: Yeah. Gee, we just lost four straight in the year. Like,

90
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 2: it's not like that's a team trending up. Where's like

91
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 2: I said, Upstate six of the last seven they one.

92
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 3: That's why I kind of like just lay in the

93
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,479
Speaker 3: favorite here at three to one with Ashville last year

94
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 3: they lost sorry the one seed, excuse me, not the favorite,

95
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,960
Speaker 3: but who I think should be the favorite because of

96
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 3: the draw. They lost first round last season to Charleston

97
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 3: Southern Drew Pember. I can assure you remembers that fondly

98
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 3: and lo and behold. They could face Chuck South as

99
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 3: we called them, in a rematch if they get by

100
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 3: high Point, who is also dangerous under the fighting tubby

101
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 3: Smith Junior as I call him, who have been conted

102
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 3: vaster gg Smith.

103
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 1: But man, they've just been so bad.

104
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 3: I think Ashfall gets to the championship game and who

105
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 3: they see on the bottom is anyone's guess of not

106
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 3: too all.

107
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,359
Speaker 1: These semis and finals are early early tips.

108
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 3: I tend to think that favors the dogs, So I

109
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 3: think you see some potentially kind of weird results, uglier games,

110
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 3: especially at the neutral site, weird placed, unfamiliar location at

111
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 3: Bojangles Coliseum. Any other final thoughts here on Big South

112
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 3: first round matchup you guys are looking at, maybe looking

113
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 3: to back favorite dog.

114
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 2: J Angles isn't as big as I wanted. It's not

115
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 2: like a cavernous fifteen thousands, which would definitely get me

116
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:52,600
Speaker 2: leaning towards unders. There's been some teams that I've really

117
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 2: perceived as unders, and you get an opening matchup with

118
00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 2: Campbell and Presbyterian, two teams that grind in the half court.

119
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 2: And I think I've been yelled at for betting Campbell

120
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 2: under Zone and our other best bet show because they've

121
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 2: had a few shootouts recently. But I do think that

122
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 2: one is going to be slow and ugly in the

123
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 2: first round opening around. That's on Wednesday, March first. As

124
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: you are listening to.

125
00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: This, yeah, I think present's here and have as kai.

126
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 4: So I'll just add one more note after you finished

127
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 4: you appointment, because you're gonna respond to Jim.

128
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:22,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I have a great point too, Kai, So let

129
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 3: me have it here. The blue host Jim Presbo sitting

130
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 3: at the ten spot. I can't believe how bad they've been.

131
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 3: I do think they're kind of an interesting super long

132
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 3: Hill Mary shots. Maybe win a game, not too but

133
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 3: maybe too.

134
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,559
Speaker 2: We lost seventeen in a row.

135
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 3: Like the roster is not all that different from last

136
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 3: year when they were far more competitive.

137
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: Not way Moore, but that.

138
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 3: Just better, right, Like there's guys in that team where

139
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,919
Speaker 3: you could see maybe them having a kind of an

140
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 3: out of nowher resurgency. I thought a team would be

141
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 3: more to the middle of the pack, middle to bottom preseason.

142
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 3: They really just bought them out completely in a lot

143
00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:55,039
Speaker 3: scoring game. Any thinking that, Yeah, go ahead.

144
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,839
Speaker 2: Rayshawn Harrison's been like the third best player in the whack.

145
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 2: He's gone from that team that was actually competent last year,

146
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 2: and then Winston Hill has been hurt. Like there are

147
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 2: signs of life this year if they showed any or

148
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 2: while Hill was healthy, I think, and he hasn't played

149
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 2: in any of the seventeenth straight that they've lost. It's

150
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 2: I think the team's just kind of.

151
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: Bad, rolled over the white flag. Yeah, don't.

152
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 3: Guy Ruddish has been so bad. I feel like he

153
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 3: was always one of their top three. Last year kind

154
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 3: of folded. You're right without those other big two? All right,

155
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 3: fair points? Fine, fine, I can.

156
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 4: See jumping in down. Yeah, Kyle got I'm just saying this.

157
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 4: This applies to every brackt we talk about. If you're

158
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 4: going to bet a future here, don't bet the teams

159
00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 4: that have the longer path to the championship. So in

160
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 4: this league, it's high point Chuck, South, Campbell, and Presbyterian

161
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 4: have to play an extra game.

162
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 5: Very rare.

163
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 4: Do we see teams like that win conference tournaments. We'll

164
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 4: talk about that later with Missouri Valley. Just be wary

165
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 4: of that. If you're gonna take a long shot, take

166
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 4: a long shot like Upstate that already.

167
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 5: Like Jim said, is in the quarterfinals.

168
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: Yep, heart agree. Yeah.

169
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 3: I think people sometimes bet these not even looking at

170
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 3: the paths. So that obviously is very noteworthy.

171
00:07:57,960 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: Let's pivot to the any Sea.

172
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 3: The the worst conference in college basketball is that where

173
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 3: we're at if we want to call the Independence a conference, but.

174
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 2: This one or the one we're talking about the one.

175
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: We're talking about next.

176
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, Well the neec IT is the worst

177
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 3: league in America, But for my money, eight teams are

178
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 3: in this conference tournament here Merrimack despite a really dreadful

179
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 3: non conference. I guess every team in this league had

180
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 3: a bad non conference because it's just so bad they

181
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 3: want to win in the dang thing again. Joe Gallo

182
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 3: two titles in his early tenure, moving up from D

183
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 3: three to sorry, D two to D one. They're at

184
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 3: Merrimack College. They're playing lu first round. Merrimack is basically

185
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 3: even money to win this thing, depending on where you

186
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 3: look in the market. The number two Sea p really

187
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 3: Dickinson opposite bracket. They are two point five to three

188
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 3: to one, depending on where you look in the market.

189
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 3: They're playing Saint Francis Brooklyn first round. And then there's

190
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 3: a you know, kind of a mixed bag of who

191
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 3: knows what you're going to get with the rest of

192
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,199
Speaker 3: this field. Kai, do you have any profound takes in

193
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 3: what seems like the most who the heck knows bracket

194
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 3: of any of them.

195
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 5: I think that's why you look for a longer shot in.

196
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 4: This league, because it is such a parody ridden league.

197
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 4: Every team is pretty much the same except for lu

198
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 4: Merrimack being a heavy, heavy favorite just doesn't sit right

199
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,320
Speaker 4: with me. I understand they played well in conference, but

200
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 4: the best team in Keim Palm is Wagner as the

201
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 4: five seed team, and they are as high as twelve

202
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 4: to one out in the market. You can find them

203
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 4: at twelve to one. That is a lot of value

204
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 4: for a team that's beaten Merrimack at Merrimack. And while

205
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,440
Speaker 4: this conference is at the higher seeds home place. We've

206
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 4: said it before, the ANC home court, it's not much.

207
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 4: It doesn't mean a whole lot. So I think there's

208
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 4: value here on longer shots. Personally, for me, Jim Fairley

209
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 4: Dickinson is where I'm going to look. I think they

210
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,160
Speaker 4: can be the best team in this league, best offensive

211
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 4: team for sure, and I've seen them higher than three

212
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 4: to one out in the market, so that's probably where

213
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 4: I'm leaning.

214
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 5: A longer shot would be Wagner.

215
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Wagner's the right bet in terms of

216
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 2: value because they're the same round as everybody else are

217
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 2: in the quarterfinals. If they win, they will likely have

218
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 2: to go to Merrimack, but they've already won there, so

219
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 2: there's a chance that team is potentially worthy of making

220
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 2: a run. FDU has the best guards in the league,

221
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,719
Speaker 2: for sure, and that's if people gravitate towards that. In

222
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 2: the postseason, you could look at them. I'm going to

223
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:22,199
Speaker 2: be the vanilla boy here and pick Merrimack. I just

224
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 2: think they're playing way better down the stretch. They've got

225
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 2: two freshmen on the league's all freshman team that I

226
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 2: think have evolved into better versions of themselves late. That's

227
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 2: Jordan Durkhak and Javon Bennett their backcourt. And then since

228
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 2: Minor has been truly comfortable in the paint their best player,

229
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,319
Speaker 2: they've been thoroughly dominant. They closed the year winning eight

230
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,960
Speaker 2: in a row. Pretty much. None of them close like

231
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 2: Margins are twenty one, sixteen, twelve, eight, seven, thirteen, and

232
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,160
Speaker 2: then they're a little bit closer. But I do think

233
00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: that Merrimack has actually proven to be the best team

234
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 2: despite not being rated as highly in Ken Palm as

235
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,440
Speaker 2: Wagner because the opening stretch of the non con they

236
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 2: were getting slaughtered by teams without Minor. So I think

237
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 2: it's actually decently priced if you want to take a

238
00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 2: swing it would be Wagner.

239
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 4: Plus they are basically even if Wagner in Kim Pump,

240
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 4: it's three fifteen and three sixteen.

241
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 2: There you go.

242
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, Merrimack would be yeah, probably exactly at three point

243
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 3: two half point favorite at home if they face off

244
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,160
Speaker 3: in the second round, which they would if they both won.

245
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 3: And yeah, Wagner's already won there, They've already won at Fairley.

246
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:21,319
Speaker 3: Dickinson the number two seen in the bottle.

247
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: I'm with Kai.

248
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: I think Wagner's the right play at eight to one,

249
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 3: even though I jam that Merrimack is the best team

250
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 3: right now the way they're playing.

251
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, So since the start of February per Bart Tour

252
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 2: back Merrimack one hundred and seventy third nationally, like actually

253
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 2: kind of decent second best team Stonehill not even playing

254
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 2: in the event because it's their first year transitioning. And

255
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 2: then Wagner's three hundred and sixth nationally since start of February,

256
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 2: so like a very clear divide on who the best

257
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 2: team has been. And again I think it's because of

258
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 2: the young guys have started to develop. But I wouldn't

259
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 2: fault anybody for taking that Wagner price instead of Merrimack's

260
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 2: basically even money.

261
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 3: Any intrigue in the any specific first round matchups. Never

262
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 3: really talked about it. Saint Francis the Red Flash Kai

263
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 3: for the other Blue Devils of Central Connecticut or fdu

264
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 3: Verus Saint Francis Brooklyn, I kind of like both dogs

265
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 3: actually there on the road.

266
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 4: No fairly, Dickinson. I think it's going to roll Brooklyn over.

267
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 4: I really think they're going to make a run in

268
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 4: this tournament. I have not been able to figure out

269
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 4: Central Connecticut for the life of me. Saint Francis is

270
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 4: a weird team too, the Pennsylvania one, because they've had

271
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 4: so many guys in out of lineup this season. A

272
00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,600
Speaker 4: hard team to trust. However, they probably have the best

273
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 4: home court advantage of any any CED team if you're

274
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 4: going to go for that angle and they are playing

275
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 4: at home in the first round.

276
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, best home court advantage. And I think best player

277
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: Josh Cohen six', ten total dominant. Big he's had a

278
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 2: couple of relatively big games against a Small Central connecticut front.

279
00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 2: Court last time he played twenty two and. Seven it's

280
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 2: kind of his hism o. There maybe not a huge,

281
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 2: edge but definitely agree WITH kai That loretto in Western

282
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,680
Speaker 2: pennsylvania is is the best home court in the league

283
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 2: with very little, travel.

284
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 3: Yeah and seconds, primary so kind of back To jim's point,

285
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 3: there and they basically secure home court throughout the entire

286
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 3: bracket if they advance all the way. Through that's all

287
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 3: we have FOR. ANYC i, mean final thoughts against sort

288
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 3: of a crapsheet type. League if But merrimack is playing

289
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 3: like a team that's a cut, above even though the

290
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,240
Speaker 3: overall you, know analytic numbers don't necessarily bear that.

291
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,560
Speaker 1: Out all, right let's go to the O vc this

292
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 1: one for a low.

293
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 3: Major it's odd to see low majors held exclusively at

294
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 3: h at a neutral site for every, game but that's

295
00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:30,520
Speaker 3: what we have here with the o V c at

296
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 3: The Ford, Center kai and beautiful Beautiful, Evansville. Indiana wild

297
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 3: bracket here very much like the w C, c which

298
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 3: we will get to in Our thursday. Section, again all

299
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,200
Speaker 3: of these leagues we're talking about right, Now Big SOUTH

300
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 3: NEC ovc tipping off On, wednesday but THE ovc sitting

301
00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 3: up their bracket like THE, wcc heavily stacking the deck

302
00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 3: in favor of the higher, seeds WHICH i personally. LOVE

303
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 3: i think that's a you, know it pays proper homage

304
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:57,360
Speaker 3: to the regular season.

305
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: Results leagu's been a.

306
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 3: Disaster but when you're talking about backing any team outside

307
00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 3: of the top four, seeds it's a tall.

308
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: Order Morehead Tennessee.

309
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,199
Speaker 3: Tech of the top two, seeds they get auto buys

310
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 3: to The Semis Tennessee STATE Ut martin or the four

311
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 3: and three, seed. Respectively they'll start in the quarters and

312
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 3: they await the winner of the play in game first.

313
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 3: Round that's five Seed semo versus lynnon what at the

314
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 3: top of the, bracket and then number six SEEDED siu

315
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,600
Speaker 3: e versus number Seven Southern indiana at the. BOTTOM i

316
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,120
Speaker 3: cannot BELIEVE siue fell to a sixth. Seed that's my

317
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 3: opening thought on this bracket and just the way this

318
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,320
Speaker 3: thing shakes. Out, Kai BUT i don't know how you

319
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 3: back a team that's got to win, one, two, three

320
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 3: four games to march all the way to the title

321
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 3: in foro consecutive. Days, yeah the three seed in the

322
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 3: seventh seed in this bracket were separated by one game

323
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 3: in conference, place so it's.

324
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 5: Basically a big.

325
00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 4: Jumble but, yeah you look at those first four, Teams

326
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 4: timo lenn WOULD Siuv Southern. Indiana they have to win

327
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 4: four games in four days to win the. Title Morehead

328
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 4: state And Tennessee tech have to win. Two, so in my,

329
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 4: opinion if you're looking for a future in this, league

330
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 4: you just focus On morehead And Tennessee. Tech those are

331
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 4: the two teams that have biased TO. Semis, morehead in my,

332
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,440
Speaker 4: opinion is by far the best team in this. LEAGUE

333
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 4: i think they will end up winning.

334
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 5: It but there's value On.

335
00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 4: Tennessee tech maybe at plus three fifty plus three sixty

336
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 4: because they can. Shoot they're the arguably the best shooting

337
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 4: team in this, conference and over a two game sample,

338
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 4: size a lot of variants can. Happen they can get

339
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 4: scorching hot and win both. Games if you want to

340
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 4: a little bit of a longer, Shot jim for, Me Tennessee.

341
00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 4: Martin they probably have the most, potential most raw talent

342
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 4: on the, roster certainly in the.

343
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 2: Backcourt, yeah you could definitely make a case they have

344
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 2: the best backcourt in the. League Parker stewart started At

345
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 2: indiana for almost all of last. Year kJ simon has

346
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: been a very productive player in this league for several years,

347
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 2: now and Then Jordan sears is a transfer From Gardner.

348
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: Webb we just Talked Big, south and he's given them

349
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 2: a pretty steadying influence at point guard this year as.

350
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 2: Well so if you want to ride with the, backcourts

351
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 2: like we Said Fairley, dickinson THE NEC i think would

352
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 2: Be Ut martin. Here But Morehead states really elevated themselves

353
00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: into a class of their own as. Well they've won

354
00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 2: eleven of their last twelve Since february. First they're one

355
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 2: hundred and eighteenth at Bart torvic like they are nearly

356
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 2: a top one hundred, team that's how good they've. BEEN

357
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 2: i think there's a long feeling out. Process they changed

358
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,720
Speaker 2: over basically everybody in the, lineup whole new cast of

359
00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 2: characters and Took Preston spradland's credit the. Coach he Lost JOHN.

360
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 2: I broom To auburn and His the team has just

361
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 2: kept rolling in this, league so really really impressive. Stuff, Stylistically,

362
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 2: Also moorehead the only team that slows the game. Down

363
00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 2: every other team likes to. RUN i think that probably

364
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 2: helps in the postseason setting That morehead is the most

365
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 2: comfortable in a half court game when possessions play. Up

366
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 2: but they're priced very very heavily as the. Favorite SO

367
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 2: i don't think there's a ton of value On Morehead.

368
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 3: State, YEAH i don't, either ALTHOUGH i look at you,

369
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,560
Speaker 3: know just Put merrimack And morehead next to each, other

370
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 3: kind of harken back to our. Nc'scussion you're getting a

371
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 3: better price With, morehead who only has to win one last. Game,

372
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 3: NOW i know that there's other factors. Here i'm just

373
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,000
Speaker 3: kind of slicing it through that. Lens BUT i kind

374
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 3: of Like, morehead AND i think it's just more of

375
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 3: an indictment on the rest of the. League the only

376
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 3: TEAMS i like in this league are playing are in

377
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,200
Speaker 3: that kind of playing, round right With siue And, seema

378
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 3: WHO i think is starting to improve after they've gotten

379
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 3: healthier later in the. Season it's unfortunate THAT i think

380
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: we're seeing the you, know two of the more intriguing

381
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 3: teams with the deck stacked against.

382
00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: THEM i was just looking at the bracket history.

383
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 3: Here since twenty eighteen first year was held At Fort,

384
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 3: center it's basically been A Murray, State, Belmont, morehead you,

385
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,239
Speaker 3: know musical. Chair so it's the first year like an

386
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 3: ACTUAL i, MEAN i, know more it's the, favorite but

387
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:29,840
Speaker 3: they're not as good as they were With joan AND i,

388
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 3: broom and the field feels much more open for the

389
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,640
Speaker 3: first time in a. While, still the way the brackets set,

390
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 3: UP i think makes this for a pretty clear slants

391
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,200
Speaker 3: award the. FAVORITES i guess if you have to get,

392
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 3: Involved i'd maybe take morehead and maybe maybe a flyer On.

393
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 3: Siue BUT i don't have any data in front of

394
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:49,400
Speaker 3: you that shows winning four games in four days as

395
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:50,360
Speaker 3: being a likely.

396
00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 2: Proposition, yeah that could perhaps be a situation where money

397
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 2: lines it might might work. Out the problem as THE

398
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 2: sau is second in the league In Ken, palm so

399
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 2: the odds are not going to be totally in your

400
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,600
Speaker 2: favor on those money. Lines like their second they're gonna be,

401
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 2: favored probably by a couple points in the first. Game

402
00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 2: they're definitely gonna be favored in their second round game

403
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 2: Against Tennessee, state so perhaps not as strong, there but

404
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 2: eleven to one when they have to win four and four,

405
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:16,679
Speaker 2: DAYS i can't quite get on.

406
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 3: Board.

407
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 4: Kai, yeah there's their first round, Matchup, matt they Play Southern.

408
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,680
Speaker 4: Indiana you know that's located, located that's, Right so there's

409
00:18:25,720 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 4: there's gonna be scream And eagles fans. There it could

410
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 4: be it's not a home home, game but it's in their.

411
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,400
Speaker 4: CITY i Think Southern indiana might win that first. Game,

412
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,440
Speaker 4: YEAH syu really shot themselves in the. Foot we thought

413
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 4: they were going to be a little bit of a juggernaut.

414
00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 3: After they Beat slew in the noncom but a pretty

415
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:46,240
Speaker 3: non graceful fall, there all, right, PLEASE i like.

416
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,640
Speaker 2: HIM i Like cimo in that first round they Beat

417
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 2: they beat by twenty three the first time they played,

418
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 2: them and the second time they lost on the road

419
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 2: in double, overtime crazy ninety two possession. GAME i think

420
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,840
Speaker 2: you get a strong graffort At linda would have to

421
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:04,160
Speaker 2: make a buzzer beater just to make this. Tournament that's

422
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 2: what it, took like their final game of the. YEAR

423
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 2: i Think, simo who will probably be a five's point,

424
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:12,479
Speaker 2: favorite is still a decent bet there Against. Linden WOULD i?

425
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,640
Speaker 3: Agree i'll though emotional entry entry tournament first. Season, yeah

426
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 3: And seema's just more talented and you could argue actually

427
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,679
Speaker 3: undervalued because again they had some injuries earlier in the.

428
00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 3: Year but, man total crapshoots. HERE a lot of TEAMS

429

00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 3: Tournament The Gonzaga Saint Mary's duel that should be we'll

466
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:08,840
Speaker 3: get to that in a. Second should be a fun

467
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 3: one if those two teams end up slotting against each.

468
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 3: Other for, First, kay we're going To Saint. Louis Saint

469
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 3: louis where The Arch madness is hosted on an annual.

470
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 3: Basis league's always good and despite losing some key pieces

471
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 3: this year With, American.

472
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: Yeah the league still.

473
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:29,960
Speaker 3: Awesome and when you have two teams play as well

474
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 3: As drake And bradley are at the top of the,

475
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 3: bracket it seems like those here on a collision course

476
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 3: for the automatic. Bid drake sitting at plus one to fifty,

477
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 3: five so about one one and a half to, One

478
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,360
Speaker 3: bradley at two to, one and then the next closest

479
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,479
Speaker 3: Is Indiana state there at five and a half six to,

480
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 3: one or, sorry six and a half seven to, One

481
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 3: Southern illinois seven and a half eight to, One belmont

482
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 3: at eight and a half nine to, one and then there's.

483
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:57,120
Speaker 1: A drop off from.

484
00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 3: There jim going to you, first what jumps out are

485
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:02,360
Speaker 3: you from a just broader future, perspective any of these

486
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,679
Speaker 3: teams with good value in a good, Path, well.

487
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 2: You've Got drake as the two seed that's, favored not

488
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:10,639
Speaker 2: the first time we've seen that in our little tournament reviews.

489
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 2: HERE i kind of think it's. Justified Though bradley has

490
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 2: been a total wagon at, home but away from home

491
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 2: they have not been the same. Team this is not

492
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,159
Speaker 2: going to be played In. Peoria that's kind of an

493
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 2: issue for. THEM i think that could be somewhat of a.

494
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 2: PROBLEM i Think belmont's the team with the intriguing draw.

495
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 2: Here they're sitting at the four. Seed they've already Beaten bradley.

496
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 2: Twice this is, them so they've got that edge over

497
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 2: the one. Seed they Beat Indiana, STATE i believe ONCE

498
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:44,360
Speaker 2: i can't find. It, yeah so, yeah the league being

499
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 2: bigger means there's not the double round. Robin but so,

500
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 2: yeah they've like kind of controlled their half of the

501
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 2: bracket and you can make the argument that, hey a

502
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 2: young team getting better at this stage of the season

503
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 2: With gillespie And. TYSON i Think belmont's at least intriguing

504
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 2: in terms of value given their draw HIGH i think

505
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:01,240
Speaker 2: the best.

506
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 4: VALUE i think it's funny to See Indiana state as

507
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 4: shorter odds to. THEM i know their first Games, evansville

508
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 4: so it's basically whatever you're gonna win but, Yeah bellmont

509
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 4: Beat Indiana state this. YEAR i understand The Kim palm

510
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 4: Ranks Indiana state Outranks, belmont but, YEAH i.

511
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 5: Agree if they were.

512
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,360
Speaker 4: In drake's side of the, BRACKET i wouldn't Take. Belmont

513
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 4: drake handled them easily in the two games they, played

514
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:23,479
Speaker 4: and maybe that's also a reason to stay away From.

515
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 4: Belmont can they ultimately Beat? Drake who knows? Something illinois

516
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,879
Speaker 4: split With drake during the, season and that's kind of.

517
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 5: A murderer's row of a side of the. Bracket in my.

518
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 4: Opinion you Have, Drake Murray, state who's not a, pushover

519
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 4: At Missouri state who's pretty, good AND siu all in

520
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 4: the same kind of. Pod it's kind of a murder's row.

521
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,840
Speaker 4: There i'd probably look At bradley at two to, one

522
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 4: OR i look At belmont at eight to.

523
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 3: One, man this is, tough as every Arch madness. SAYS I,

524
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 3: YEAH i. DON'T i Like Indiana state the, most but

525
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:54,399
Speaker 3: it's just such a. Bummer they fell to that that

526
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,360
Speaker 3: number five, slots so they're gonna have to win four

527
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 3: games in four days. Here it's just a tough tall,

528
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 3: ask especially against the rugged valley. Competition they'll, Face i'm Taking.

529
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,959
Speaker 3: Drake i'm just looking at the field, here looking At,

530
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 3: bradley who they have to play the first two rounds

531
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 3: and Who drake would have to maybe line up. WITH

532
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 3: i just like the path better For drake in my.

533
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 3: OPINION i Know valpo's playing better and could be dangerous as,

534
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,119
Speaker 3: that you know that ten seat sleeper with the talent they,

535
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 3: Have BUT i don't Trust Mary state away from. HOME

536
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,359
Speaker 3: i Think drake it's by the winner of that, game

537
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 3: AND i think they're better than whoever they see at the,

538
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,199
Speaker 3: bottom which would Be Southern, Illinois Missouri state or U.

539
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:29,879
Speaker 3: C let's be, honest it probably will BE U i.

540
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 3: See SO i just think This drake is it is

541
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 3: a team of, destiny a bunch of super duper seniors

542
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 3: that came, back ran it back a couple of years

543
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 3: in a.

544
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,160
Speaker 1: Row haven't QUITE i haven't quite got that glory that they.

545
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 3: Deserve so who. Knows bradley has been a darling in

546
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,360
Speaker 3: this tournament. BEFORE i think they've won it how MANY

547
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 3: i think two or three times in the last seven,

548
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 3: Years SO i think maybe that tournament success plays plays.

549
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 3: Well Brian ward obviously knows what he's doing with the

550
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 3: clipboard value, Futures, kai what do you Think.

551
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,720
Speaker 5: Missouri state SWEPT u swept break this year they?

552
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,719
Speaker 1: Did now that was. Weird maybe the Defensive yeah they, Are,

553
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 1: yeah it really.

554
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 4: Is BUT siu Swept Missouri. State there's a lot of

555
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,360
Speaker 4: there's a lot of matchup.

556
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:17,959
Speaker 2: Percisers, Right, YEAH i think we should mention along with

557
00:25:18,040 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 2: some of the future. Stuff The Missouri valley unders it

558
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 2: is a, huge Huge darling vet for a lot of

559
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 2: people dating back to two thousand and, five two thousand and.

560
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 2: Six so in the Bet labs, database unders in this

561
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 2: event one hundred and three and fifty seven sixty four

562
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:36,119
Speaker 2: point four. Percent now that is heavily weighted towards like

563
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 2: the two thousand and five twelve stretches really strong from

564
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 2: about sixteen till. Now it's it's far. Less it's probably

565
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,919
Speaker 2: about fifty three. Percent i'd have to refilter, this but

566
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,280
Speaker 2: it does feel like the market is caught on a

567
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 2: little bit and there's not such an auto bet value

568
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:54,160
Speaker 2: on just hammering the. Unders So i'd be a little

569
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 2: cautious that a lot of the profitability in those numbers

570
00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 2: are from, old old.

571
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 3: Seasons, yeah that's a GREAT i think that's, uh last

572
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 3: Year denver's outpace.

573
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 1: Unders So i've actually looked at.

574
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,719
Speaker 2: Them breakdown last year was six and two unders. WENT

575
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 2: i happened to that was actually kind of a resurgence

576
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 2: for them a little.

577
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 3: Bit, YEAH i would tread lately tracking or trying to

578
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 3: chase the uh those, trends because you're, Right, JIM i

579
00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 3: think it's important to look at the last couple of,

580
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 3: years especially when the market is. Adjusted even odds makers

581
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,200
Speaker 3: are digging in more this time of. Season they're not

582
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 3: just coffee Pasting Ken palm or Bart. Torvik they're making

583
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 3: their an, adjustments AND i think people who know what

584
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 3: they're doing are playing something technical trends pretty. Early so

585
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 3: now if you're waking up at ten am on A, thursday, like,

586
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,280
Speaker 3: OH i Guess i'll bet the valley unders you. MAKE

587
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 3: i checked the number chance starts probably be bet down

588
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:39,159
Speaker 3: already and to the point where.

589
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,199
Speaker 1: It's not really worth the. Bet but now a very

590
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 1: still point you on the total.

591
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 2: Angle since since five oh, six there's what that's seventeen

592
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,440
Speaker 2: tournaments because they actually did play the twenty twenty tournament

593
00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 2: BEFORE covid, right only two have finished under five hundred

594
00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 2: For unders only two of the, events but there's been

595
00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 2: four of them that were exactly five. Hundred so pretty

596
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 2: much every year you're you, know you're fighting a decent.

597
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,200
Speaker 2: Proposition there has not been a single year where The

598
00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 2: unders got. Shelled so if you really want to get

599
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 2: in on, IT i think if you get decent numbers,

600
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,160
Speaker 2: early it's worth maybe looking.

601
00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,480
Speaker 3: At, YEAH i wonder just the fact that they have

602
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 3: this kind of front loaded in the tournament schedule season

603
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 3: that the you, know wear and tear of a daunting conference.

604
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,479
Speaker 3: Schedule you kind of turn it over pretty, quickly especially

605
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,360
Speaker 3: you're playing three games in three days or four and four,

606
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 3: days but trying to make a deep run that's gonna

607
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 3: wear on your, legs no. Doubt favorite future. Bet i'm

608
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 3: still trying to, decide how do you have your horse yet?

609
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 3: Picked or are you staying away? Here you don't see

610
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 3: any good?

611
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 4: Value, NO i said of Like belmont if IF i

612
00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 4: had to, choose Or, Bradley, yeah one of those. Teams,

613
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,240
Speaker 4: Yeah in, general futures for conference, tournaments they're kind of

614
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 4: a fool's goal type of.

615
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 5: BET i, think in my, opinion.

616
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:50,439
Speaker 4: There's there's really high hole yet a really like one

617
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 4: book it's kind of, tough So i'd probably look to

618
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,440
Speaker 4: just get into a pool with with some awesome people

619
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 4: Like stucky for, instance or just play money line.

620
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,520
Speaker 2: Ruler, yeah, YEAH i Think bellmont's the decent. Value but

621
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 2: like if you're SAYING i have to pick a team to,

622
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,399
Speaker 2: win LIKE i Think drake's going to, WIN i just

623
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 2: don't think there's value at plus one fifty five or.

624
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 3: Whatever, yep all neutral site conference tournaments does no favors

625
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,639
Speaker 3: to the. Favorites let's head Out west for our final.

626
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 3: Tournament on today's preview Special West Coast, conference The zags

627
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,679
Speaker 3: and The gaels are on a collision. Course love how

628
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 3: the odds makers have basically pinned these at minus one

629
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:32,640
Speaker 3: oh five minus one, fifteen slight favorite towards slight edge

630
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,959
Speaker 3: toward The. Gales but effectively the market has these two

631
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 3: at a coin. Flip how About Santa clara the third

632
00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 3: highest favorite at fifty to. One Santa CLARA buyu fifty to.

633
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,120
Speaker 3: One everyone else is one hundred to one or. Higher

634
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 3: so we can pretty much have this entire discussion hovered

635
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 3: around The gonzaga Versus Saint mary's in terms of the future,

636
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 3: value who you're looking to take, there but some potential

637
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 3: first round matchups that have some intrigue as.

638
00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 1: Well let's start with just the.

639
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 3: Macro future Market kaiales zags in a. Vacuum he taken

640
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 3: basically coin flip here with the.

641
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:07,760
Speaker 4: Odds, yeah it's basically it's a regular, bet right minus

642
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 4: one oh five minus one.

643
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,920
Speaker 5: Fifteen i've seen minus one tens on both. Sides i'm Taking.

644
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 2: Zaga there's there's one book that Has gonzaga minus one

645
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 2: Thirty Saint mary's plus one, Fifteen so get that better.

646
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 4: Shop i'm Taking. Gonzaga and and this bracket is like

647
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 4: the ultimate fu to the lower. Seeds, Uh, Portland San,

648
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 4: Diego Pacific pepperdine have to win five games in five.

649
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 5: Days that's absolutely. Crazy and then it steps down from.

650
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 2: There it is five and six at least because they

651
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 2: have they Take sunday off five year one.

652
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 5: Caveat but five and six games still quite a.

653
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:41,520
Speaker 2: Bit.

654
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 4: Uh, yeah the odds are stacked against them In Saint

655
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 4: mary's And gonzaga gets a chill Till. Monday when to

656
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 4: two in a, row and they've dominated the league all,

657
00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 4: Year So i'm Taking. Gonzaga they also don't have to

658
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 4: play LM u AND lmu is the only team that's

659
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 4: beaten Both Saint mary's And, Gonzaga so give me The.

660
00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:59,280
Speaker 2: Zags, Yeah i'm With. KAI i Think gonzaga was his.

661
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 2: Tournament if you get and fine this minus one oh

662
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 2: five On, Gonzaga i'm into. That they were just they

663
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 2: closed with minus five and a half almost minus six

664
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 2: at home In. Spokane that tells you that if they

665
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 2: played on a neutral it's probably going to Be gonzaga

666
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 2: favored by you, know two or. So and if you're

667
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,120
Speaker 2: getting minus two but you're really getting minus one oh

668
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 2: five in the future's, market that's pretty. Solid i'm not

669
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 2: super stressed about either team's draw in the semi. FINALS

670
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:28,400
Speaker 2: byu has been a little bit spunky spicy against these two.

671
00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 2: Teams they should have Beaten Saint mary's In, provo and

672
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 2: they Gave gonzaga two decent games as. Well Santa clair

673
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 2: has also been a little bit. Feisty But gonzaga's biggest

674
00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 2: troubles were on the road except when they PLAYED. Lmu

675
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 2: and they're not gonna PLAY muh BECAUSE i don't think

676
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 2: lm you Beat Saint, mary's so circling that all Back

677
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 2: gonzaga minus one oh. Five the minus one TEN i

678
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:53,200
Speaker 2: think has like legitimate value from a price, perspective LIKE

679
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,520
Speaker 2: i think it'll be steeper than that in the title,

680
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,640
Speaker 2: Game so The zags for, Me, MATTHEW.

681
00:30:58,560 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: I agree my one.

682
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,160
Speaker 3: Concern So i'm generally in the camp Of i'm not

683
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 3: worried about the semi final. Draws But gonzaga is down

684
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:08,200
Speaker 3: like fifteen To Santa. CLARA i believe At clara in

685
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 3: the first being between these, two they came.

686
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 1: Back in one. LATE i, mean The acts usually take

687
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: care of business when they need.

688
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 3: To the elem that's why THE lmu lost was so,

689
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 3: shocking just to see them against the wall on the

690
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 3: ropes and they actually couldn't close it And herb sendext

691
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 3: a great game, plan are, great you know. Schemers SO

692
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 3: i don't think it's an automatic four on conclusion that they,

693
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 3: advance but a fairly fairly likely and to the point

694
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 3: WHERE i think it's not even fully priced into the.

695
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,960
Speaker 3: Odds if you can Get gonzagia closer like that minus

696
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 3: one ten whatever book you, mentioned and that has minus one,

697
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:39,960
Speaker 3: THIRD i think it's a sharper shade of the, number

698
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:41,720
Speaker 3: especially given THAT i think Its ai is just a

699
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,240
Speaker 3: SLIGHTLY i don't, know higher power rated team Than Saint

700
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 3: mary's and THE lmu threat is probably greater Than Santa.

701
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: Clara but, Anyway i'm just going.

702
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 2: To keep bringing up these Since february, first filters on

703
00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,000
Speaker 2: bart tarbet BECAUSE i think it gives a decent idea

704
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:58,280
Speaker 2: of who's playing better at this stage of the. Year

705
00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 2: so Since february, First Saint mary's twenty seventh per, Part gonzaga.

706
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 2: Third Like gonzaga is playing like that elite. Team, KAI

707
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 2: i think you've been maybe the most stringently loyal to

708
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 2: That gonzaga is elite, narrative and they're starting to really

709
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:13,080
Speaker 2: show that of.

710
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 5: Late, Yeah i'm A zag's, Boy.

711
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 3: Matthew never a little, fun little. WRINKLE i will be

712
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,360
Speaker 3: betting On Chicago, state who is not in this. Conference

713
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,160
Speaker 3: they will be Playing gonzaga On, wednesday a game they

714
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 3: don't don't know Why gonzaga, schedule But kenzaga basically has

715
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 3: a little exhibition tune up here before they go on

716
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 3: THE wcc. Tournament Chicago state has not played Since february.

717
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 3: Nineteenth they've been off for three three, weeks looking at film,

718
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,600
Speaker 3: tape trying to break down The gonzaga transition, attacks so

719
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 3: look to take The bobcats on their Final West coast

720
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 3: tour of the independent yet very successful against the spread

721
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:48,960
Speaker 3: season for The, Bobcats.

722
00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 5: They've been there for a couple of days to.

723
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:51,560
Speaker 1: Already they already got there and got.

724
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 4: Settled they're, there they're practicing on their home, there gonzagas floor.

725
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 5: Already we have to see.

726
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 3: It first round Matchups Jim, Portland San, Diego Pacific pepperdhin

727
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 3: the only two we actually know for certain with a

728
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 3: couple you know that next Round biu versus the winner

729
00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 3: of The Portland San diego Matchup San francisco versus winner

730
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 3: Of Pacific.

731
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 1: Pepperdine i'm probably gonna bet The.

732
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 3: WAVES i feel Like Lorenzo romar is actually pretty good

733
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,040
Speaker 3: in the, tournament just because he's so bad in the

734
00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:15,520
Speaker 3: regular season that he actually has a value in the

735
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 3: conference tournament with all the talent he.

736
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,640
Speaker 1: Has AM i off my, Rocker.

737
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,080
Speaker 2: No you're not. CRAZY i don't have a strong opinion

738
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 2: on that. ONE i will be Betting. PORTLAND i think

739
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 2: they Smashed San, diego who has been really, shorthanded horrific,

740
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 2: defensively and you could make the case that this talented

741
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 2: team finally shows up in the, postseason but the Two

742
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 2: pac twelve, Transfers Eric williams And Jade delaer have not been.

743
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 2: Playing they've been, hurt And PORTLAND i think is still

744
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 2: a little bit undervalue because of how they've played in

745
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 2: the stretch where they were. Injured so in the postseason

746
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 2: THAT i go back to the last Year portland had

747
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 2: a first round game where they Beat San diego by

748
00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 2: eighteen and then they got crushed By Santa. CLARA i

749
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 2: think something similar happens this. Year i'll take The pilots

750
00:33:56,600 --> 00:34:00,280
Speaker 2: if it's anywhere like minus. Four it's two unkempy that

751
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,480
Speaker 2: it's minus, four and actual, Betting i'll still Take.

752
00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 1: Moreland yeah as, well they've lost four in Row.

753
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 3: MAN i wonder If portland just finally kind of hit

754
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 3: a wall in a way with the White. Flag funny

755
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 3: that they're actually better than last year's Teammate Ken, pomp

756
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,480
Speaker 3: but they are perceived to be a lot worse this

757
00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 3: year just because of the. RECORD i think it just

758
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:20,040
Speaker 3: goes to show how the schedule was very fortuitous with

759
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:21,839
Speaker 3: The pilots last. Year now they actually had to play

760
00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:25,000
Speaker 3: all the big boys this. Season as on top of

761
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:26,800
Speaker 3: the injury. Thing jim, mentioned it really caught up to.

762
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 3: Them final bets for, me AS i, MENTIONED i Think

763
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,399
Speaker 3: i'm going to target The. Zags if you can get

764
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,160
Speaker 3: close to minus one ten or a coin flip kai

765
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 3: rehash what you're looking in THE wcc, here, Yep.

771
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:53,799

Speaker 2: Seed i've heard it's B. Yu being the five is

778
00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 2: the surprising. Part like a team we sort of perceive

779
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 2: as the third best team in the, league they've got

780
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 2: to win multiple. GAMES i could buy it a little WITH,

781
00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,400
Speaker 2: LMU i. DON'T i think what they did down the

782
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 2: stretch To Saint mary's is kind of. Repeatable they just

783
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,480
Speaker 2: put them in ball screens and they've got a dynamic,

784
00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 2: scorer And shelton tore them up in that. Game it

785
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,719

786
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 2: help off with three point. Shooters so, YEAH i could

787
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 2: see a little bit of a sprinkle being worthwhile ON.

788
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:38,200
Speaker 5: Lmu the game two of The gonzaga game just frightens.

789
