That's how we're twenty point favorites. We 55 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 2: don't lose the teams like log Beach State. You just 56 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 2: did in last year's tournament. You lost to Princeton. Stop 57 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 2: with that.

Or are we gonna be able to dive 64 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 3: into this. 65 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: So we can dive into it. Like I said, we're 66 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 2: already past the for two games for Arizona, so we 67 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 2: can get into all the other games. I've already put 68 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 2: Arizona into the into the sweet sixteen. No, no offense 69 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 2: to to what team? Did they play again? Long Beach State? 70 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: Oh that's why you put it? Thanks for Could I 71 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 2: write that down? Chris? Would you sure go ahead?

I 76 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 2: thought they or was that the football team that got dispands? 77 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 2: I thought it was both. I had no doubt. Imagine 78 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 2: my surprise when I heard they had a basketball team. 79 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 3: Well, it's it's actually if you want literal Chris here, Yes, 80 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 3: it's one of the coolest stories in the tournament. 81 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 2: It is Don Monson, who dan good jobs close enough, 82 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: but didn't he use to coach at Minnesota? Also or no, dude, 83 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 2: he was. 84 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 3: The original Gonzaga coach. 85 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: Yes, I know that. I knew that. 86 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 3: Yes, he had a great run at Gonzaga for about 87 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 3: nine seasons right as an assistant, was there head coach, 88 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: and then took the Minnesota job. 89 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 2: Right. 90 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, probably one of the more disappointing career choices. Now, 91 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: my man got paid, but he got fired mid season 92 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 3: and no six I think I don't eve think he 93 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: made it into the seven year uh, and then he's 94 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 3: been at Long Beach State for like nine seasons. They 95 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 3: fired him before the Big West Tournament, and then he 96 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 3: went and they did the Cleveland Indians and Major League thing. 97 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 2: He's gonna wish he they did lose in the tournament. 98 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 2: After we get done with. 99 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 3: Him, right again, tell her how the show is gonna 100 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 3: go tonight. 101 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 2: Just you know, look, I've been waiting a whole year 102 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 2: to get my revenge. Do you understand how distraught I 103 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,919 Speaker 2: was after that that who they was to us, their princes, 104 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 2: you know who they was. I was so distraught after 105 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 2: that game. And when I saw that we're playing Beach State, 106 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 2: the Long Beach State. Is that a school or is 107 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: that like a club? It's a school, it's a school. 108 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: I thought, you're like, hey, let's go down to the 109 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 2: Long Beach State area and go surf figure or something. 110 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 2: But anyway, when I found that we're playing them, like, 111 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: oh jeez, I should play. We could beat them with 112 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: me as a starter shooting ten times during the game 113 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 2: and we'll still win by twenty with me out there 114 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 2: for forty minutes. 115 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 3: How about that again? I just wanted to apologize to everybody. 116 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 3: This will only last tonight, and then once Arizona gets 117 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 3: knocked out in either the first round by Long Beach 118 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 3: State or the second round by Dayton, we can go 119 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 3: back to having a regular show. 120 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 2: I will not show up if they lose to Long 121 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,719 Speaker 2: beat I promise you will still show up. I know 122 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 2: I will not. I don't care what the bosses say. 123 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 2: I don't care if they they scream at me, fire me. 124 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 2: I will if they lose to Long Beach State, I 125 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 2: couldn't come in. It would be I'd be too distraught. 126 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 2: What do you? What do you? 127 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 1: What? 128 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 2: Are you crazy? I'm not coming in it. But that's 129 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 2: beside the point. That's like saying what are you gonna 130 00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: do if the sun doesn't come up tomorrow? So you 131 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 2: know that that's about the same type of odds as 132 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 2: Arizona losing to the Long Beach State. You know, by 133 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: the way, it only took me like seven minutes to 134 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: fill up my bracket.

Yeah, 215 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 3: there has been one team that betters have backed early 216 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 3: more than any other. One team has been getting hammered 217 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 3: by the betting public. According to our buddy joh Barton 218 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 3: at Sportsbetting dot ag. 219 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 2: Is this in a game or overall to win the championship? 220 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 3: This is overall to win the championship. 221 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 2: It's got to be Arizona. 222 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 3: They went from twenty to one to fourteen to one, Yeah, 223 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 3: to twelve to one in a matter of minutes. It 224 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 3: is not Arizona. 225 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 2: It's not no, because Arizona was like the fourth or 226 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 2: fifth favorite outs. Are you sure you know what you're 227 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 2: talking about? 228 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm reading the email that's right in front 229 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 3: of me. It's Tennessee. Then it's North Carolina. North Carolina. 230 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 2: Why would they do that when they have to go 231 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 2: through Arizona. I don't understand the Rajnaleen. 232 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 3: That North Carolina has already created a liability five times 233 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 3: that of the next team, which is Yukon. Since the 234 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 3: refreshed sixty eight team Championship futures market was set, sportsbook 235 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 3: manager Adam Burns said, quote, UNC is obviously a blue 236 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 3: chip program with a storied history, but we haven't seen 237 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 3: this kind of tar heel attorney support in years. You 238 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 3: want to know the top five, and by the way, 239 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 3: Arizona's not one of the top five. 240 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 2: I want you to know this. I picked North Carolina 241 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 2: to go that far, but do you know how bad 242 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: I wanted to put GC instead of NC for Grand 243 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 2: Canyon the other because I got Great Canyon going pretty far? Buddy? 244 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 2: Do you Scooteam? You know Raams Drew Brice Drew. That's right, 245 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 2: well done. 246 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 3: The top five most bet teams since the updated odds 247 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 3: were released a couple of hours ago. 248 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 2: Gotta be Yukon. Yukon's number two, not that dog per 249 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 2: Due team. Please tell me not that No. No produced out 250 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: of the top five. I'm kind of surprised by the 251 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 2: last three. North Carolina's number one, Okay, Yukon's number two. Okay, Yeah, 252 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: of course I would say Iowa State. 253 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 3: Iowa stage four, Tennessee is three, in Auburn is five. 254 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 3: So we've lost our minds over conference champions at four 255 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 3: and five right here with I was hating winning the 256 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 3: big twelve in Auburn winning the SEC right, Tennessee got 257 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 3: beat early in the SEC tournament. 258 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, are the people second? Are the people live in 259 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 2: their mind with that? Yeah? They got clobberd. They got 260 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 2: smacked around by Mississippi State. And thanks to the crew 261 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 2: over at sports Betting Dot AG for sitting that. Does 262 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 2: that do anything for you with North Carolina or now 263 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: it's just a slap in my face? In your face? Yeah, 264 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: I mean because, uh but I do. I always like 265 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 2: looking at the long long shots. By the way, you 266 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 2: know who's the longest longest shot on the board, Long 267 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 2: Beach State. It's sixty thousand to one, So there you go. 268 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 3: Plus, I think they're the least no temple, right, they're 269 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 3: the least likely team to have made the tournament. I 270 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 3: think Long Beach State was, so they should have the 271 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 3: longest odds. 272 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, Temple didn't make it in Howard, that's right, 273 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 2: a Grambling State all plus sixty thousand, and then you 274 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 2: got the Wagner's distensions on the Longwoods. Yeah, the mad 275 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: hatters speak. Oh make me laugh. 276 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 3: We've had a Don Monson and a Stinson so far. 277 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 3: Tonight in the Big Dance. 278 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 2: Close enough, I won't have to remember that team's name 279 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 2: after the first game. Okay, well, okay. 280 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 3: Here's my question. I'm not picking on you, but here's 281 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 3: my question overall, and this is one. 282 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 2: For by the way, you're the Vermont. How about that 283 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 2: they're playing Duke. I just wanted to go to the game. 284 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 2: I think that game is down in Brooklyn on a Friday. 285 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 2: That would have been It's like a four hour drive 286 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 2: for me. Or you've always find you're you can get 287 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 2: in your car and go to these games. I don't 288 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 2: say I want to, but then I miss all the 289 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 2: other games. 290 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 3: I hate doing that, you know, you know, it's it's 291 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 3: funny that you say that I've covered. When I first 292 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 3: started in this biz we call show, that was my beat. 293 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 3: College basketball. Yes, so I would go to the NCAA 294 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,440 Speaker 3: tournament in the first and second rold every year for 295 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 3: one team, and it again I loved following it being 296 00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 3: in the arena with the energy and stuff, but it 297 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 3: kind of sucked because you didn't really know what was 298 00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 3: going on around. 299 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 2: You right right, And for like the last. 300 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 3: Fifteen years, I'm just watched it at home and now 301 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 3: with every and you're not at the mercy of CBS anymore, 302 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 3: and it's like, all right, we'll take you live here. 303 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 3: You can watch every game as it happens. I'm with you, Arnie. 304 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 3: I would much rather be sitting at home on my 305 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 3: couch watching these games as opposed to being in an arena. 306 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,440 Speaker 3: And it looks like the Final four. 307 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: You see all the games, you got the four channels, 308 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: you got probably two TVs, maybe you watched a third, 309 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 2: and you very rarely do you have three games coming 310 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 2: out to the end. It's usually two at the most anyway, 311 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 2: So it's it's spread out pretty good. You get a 312 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 2: pretty good feel of how the games are coming on down. No, 313 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 2: you're you're right. 314 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 3: So before we grab our break, here's my question tonight. 315 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 3: Last year was the year of the upsets. We ended 316 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 3: up with what like an aid couple fives in the 317 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 3: final four. 318 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 2: It was. 319 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 3: It was crazy and the last one seed ended up 320 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 3: putting the whole thing in yu connor our last two, 321 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 3: whatever they were. 322 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 2: Do you see another year of upsets? Arnie? 323 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 3: Do you think this is gonna be another season where 324 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 3: we look up and because of the parody in college basketball, 325 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 3: because of guys moving all over the place. Do you 326 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 3: see another Final four that could be littered with teams 327 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 3: that would be considered like the non blue bloods. 328 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 2: No, I don't see it in the Final four. I 329 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: don't see it in the Elite eight. Matter of fact, 330 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 2: I don't even think I see it in the sweet sixteen, 331 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 2: because well, maybe a couple of teams. I should take 332 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 2: that back into the sweet sixteen. There's too many blue 333 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 2: bloods that are really good. Now. I'm not saying everybody 334 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 2: could win a championship, but like even teams five through 335 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 2: fifteen can make a run and find themselves in the 336 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 2: sweet sixteen or in Elite eight. That's how deep it is. 337 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 2: I do have a lot of early upsets first round, 338 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 2: second round. I think there's gonna be seven in the 339 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 2: first round, and those teams I got a couple of 340 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 2: them actually going to the sweet sixteen. So you're gonna 341 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 2: see a couple of those. I'm starting to feel bad 342 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 2: that I made Perdue go all the way to the 343 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 2: Elite eight. I'm starting to think that maybe they'll choke 344 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 2: some along the line. But otherwise, we're gonna see some 345 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,280 Speaker 2: really some fun teams out there, like McNees. I don't 346 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 2: know if you've seen them. I think they can be 347 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 2: really fun. They can make a run. I think it's 348 00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 2: a pretty good path for them, you know. So you're 349 00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 2: gonna see some pretty good early upsets in this tournament. 350 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: All right. 351 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 3: When we come back to the ti rack dot com studios, 352 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 3: let's put a pin in NCAA tournament talk for a 353 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 3: moment because we have some NFL news to talk about 354 00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 3: with Arnie and Plank.

You okay to talk 381 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 2: a little football here? Yeah, I'm okay, I'm okay. 382 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 3: It's aren't even playing on a Fox Football Sunday. 383 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 2: Wow, I don't know. I was trying. 384 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:56,199 Speaker 1: Uh. 385 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 3: Todd Furman's coming up a little bit later on in 386 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,360 Speaker 3: the show, and Disager's got an update here a bit, 387 00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 3: but I saw the Ian Rappaport tweet today, and I 388 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 3: had to double check to make sure that it wasn't 389 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 3: from a fake account. Now, I'm not saying that Ian 390 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 3: Rappaport made this up, but I find it odd that 391 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 3: the Bears trade Justin Fields to the Steelers and get 392 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 3: quite possibly the worst return you could ever get outside 393 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 3: of cutting a first round pick. 394 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,959 Speaker 2: Isn't that where he you told me if I get 395 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 2: the starlo ahead, is that where he said he wanted 396 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 2: to go? 397 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 3: I called bs okay, So that's what you're going. That's 398 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 3: what I'm calling bs okay because. 399 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 2: I heard that. I saw that story also that he 400 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: told his agent that's where I want to go in 401 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 2: and they did a masaid by trading him to the 402 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 2: to the Pittsburgh Steelers. 403 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 3: At least four additional teams inquired about trading for Fields, 404 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 3: but Field's representation asked for him not to be traded there. 405 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,360 Speaker 3: He waned the Steelers and the Bears did right by him. 406 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,959 Speaker 2: He says there was another team interested in him at all. 407 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 2: Of that. 408 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,720 Speaker 3: I'm telling you right now, if someone was offering you 409 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 3: more than a conditional six that could build up to 410 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 3: a fourth if he plays. 411 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: They would have taken it. They would have taken it 412 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,360 Speaker 2: in a heartbeat, exactly. This is what you have to say. 413 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 3: And listen, here's the thing. The Bears have done a 414 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 3: really good job this offseason. I love the acquisition of 415 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 3: Keenan Allen. Heck, even getting Montes sweat during the season, 416 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,640 Speaker 3: I thought was a big time move. But don't blow 417 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 3: smoke on my backside. I mean, there wasn't a market 418 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 3: for him. 419 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 2: There wasn't. 420 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 3: And if you're gonna tell me there were four additional teams, well, 421 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 3: if they offered you more than a sixth round pick, 422 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 3: then you gotta do it. And I get it. Listen, 423 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 3: Bears fans, been a good off season. You don't have 424 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 3: to fight with me about how this becomes a fourth 425 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,200 Speaker 3: If that's twenty twenty five, Arnie, that's not even this draft, 426 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 3: that's next year. I'm not buying it. Man, there wasn't 427 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 3: a market for him. There hasn't been a market for him. 428 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 3: You and I are the only people that apparently love 429 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 3: Justin Fields right would have taken him as our quarterback. 430 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: You know what I found interesting also is that everybody's 431 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 2: pray see the Pittsburgh Steelers saying, well, nobody in the 432 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,919 Speaker 2: off season, They've won the super Bowl of the off season. 433 00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,959 Speaker 2: They all the right moves. It's interesting because what are 434 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:13,240 Speaker 2: their pickups won't play at all, supposedly right in a quarterback, 435 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 2: what are their pickups should not have an effect on 436 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 2: their team whatsoever. So you know, we're praising them on 437 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 2: adding a guy that may never see the field. I 438 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 2: think he will, but may never even even see the 439 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,760 Speaker 2: field at all this year. Well, and then that's just 440 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 2: it's so. 441 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 3: It sounds so like Rapaport's carrying the water for the 442 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 3: Bears here, trying to make Ryan Poles look good. 443 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 2: He doesn't. They didn't have any offers. 444 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 3: If there were four other teams that were in on 445 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,640 Speaker 3: justin Field and they were offering you anything better and 446 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 3: you didn't send him there, I'm sorry man, that's GML prinsts. 447 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,679 Speaker 2: My question is what had all the offers coming at 448 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 2: the same time. Nobody, nobody made this offer two weeks ago, 449 00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 2: and they said, oh, we'll get back to you, and 450 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,360 Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, on one day, all four 451 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 2: offers came in and they said, wow, we got four offers, 452 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 2: and now we're going to pick the best offer within 453 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 2: a day or so. And I think that's just a 454 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 2: bunch of maloney. So then let's step back from it. 455 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 3: What did you make of Gosh, we were live on 456 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 3: the air last week when Russell Wilson ended up in Pittsburgh, right, 457 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 3: and look. 458 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 2: What has happened in one week of stuff? You know? 459 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 3: So what do you make of that? What do you 460 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,400 Speaker 3: make of how these Steelers have rebuilt their quarterback room? 461 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 3: And now I mean Kitty Pickett, who was a first 462 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 3: round pick is in Philly. Back it up Jalen Hurts, 463 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 3: and it looks like the Bears are going quarterback number 464 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 3: one like we always thought. And I don't really think 465 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,639 Speaker 3: there's too much debate about who it's going to be. 466 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 3: It's gonna be Kayleb Williams. Kind of a wild. 467 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 2: Week, absolutely wild week. And I think what Pittsburgh did 468 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 2: was good in salary sense. What are they gonna give 469 00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson a mill and a half and Fields gets 470 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 2: what three three and a half to five million for 471 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 2: their quarterback situation? I think that's extremely phenomenal. That's where 472 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 2: most of your money goes to is the quarterback and 473 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: then a little bit of the backup. So there you 474 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,239 Speaker 2: have plenty of money for all the other weapons and 475 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: defense and all that. I'm sure they're in a good situation. 476 00:22:14,960 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 2: And then I'll add, though I don't think Russell Wilson 477 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 2: is going to lead him to a whole like of a. 478 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 3: Lot, though well they did. There was some buzz building today. Well, 479 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,360 Speaker 3: I say today over the weekend that the Steelers were 480 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 3: kind of try to extend Russell Wilson beyond just this year. 481 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 2: Now, that's insane. I'm not disagreeing with you. I don't. 482 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 3: Sports radio is supposedly toods fighting, but I can't argue 483 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 3: with you. 484 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,479 Speaker 2: I was going to ask you, are those reports I 485 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 2: saw before we went on the air true about Zach 486 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,159 Speaker 2: Wilson going to the forty nine ers or was that 487 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 2: bogus reports on that? 488 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 3: Well, shouts out to our buddy Shady Sean at Shady 489 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 3: Sewan for twenty who. 490 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 2: Hates college bastard. 491 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 3: So he was trying to find anything for us to 492 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 3: talk about at NFL, notify at mL football, at NFL rumors. 493 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 3: All these aggregate the dub line. I think sometimes they 494 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 3: just throw something off the wall to see if it sticks. 495 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 3: I mean, this tweet has four hundred and eighty nine 496 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 3: thousand views and it's the worst photoshop of Zach Wilson 497 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 3: in a Niners jursey I've ever seen in my life. 498 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 3: So I don't argue anything that could be happening with 499 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 3: San Francisco Rocker two point zero or something. I mean, 500 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 3: could you imagine the rumor Zach Wilson, whom was taking 501 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 3: one spot ahead of Trey Lance. You're telling me that 502 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,719 Speaker 3: the Niners would give up any compensation. Don't get this 503 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 3: guy a. 504 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 2: Hey, the quarterback whisper would That's for sure. 505 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 3: You will just not let that go.

I 678 00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 3: do that he started there. 679 00:31:58,760 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean not have to pick Long State because 680 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,239 Speaker 2: Blude Olsen started there, well you ask me, and then 681 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 2: he went to Iowa, and then from Iowa he came 682 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 2: to Tucson. 683 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 3: But you were making fun of them. You're making fun 684 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 3: of the program that your founding father had built. 685 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 2: How dare you? I know? How dare I'm so sorry 686 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 2: about that. This is fun of it. After we beat 687 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 2: him by fifty, after you beat him by then I'll 688 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 2: make fun of him. Oh. 689 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 3: By the way, apparently Rob ge'z a Long Beach State alumni. 690 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 2: Oh geez, I better watch out what I say now. 691 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 3: I know right, you're gonna be in big trouble. No 692 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 3: one's gonna be on your side. And then UCLA Dodger 693 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 3: Frank writes Arnie's next six weeks. Arizona gets eliminated early, 694 00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 3: the Nicks lose in the first round. The Mets are 695 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,280 Speaker 3: eliminated by the end of April and the Dolphins screw 696 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 3: up the draft and put the cherry on the Sunday 697 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 3: of an awful, awful off season. 698 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 2: You know, sometimes you can't argue with that. And that's 699 00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 2: been the that's happened lately. It seems like that's appened lately. 700 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 2: How I mean my era with the COVID canceling one year, 701 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 2: it's been It's been a long drought. I've been waiting 702 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 2: for this for a while. So yeah, and everything gets 703 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 2: messed up by Nick Skettle. They don't even make the playoffs, 704 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 2: so I don't even have that now. They do recently, 705 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 2: but but back then they didn't even make the playoffs. 706 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 2: So now I things are looking my way.

That's right. They 710 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 2: got to make sure they got eliminated. Though I wish 711 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 2: we would have played them. I would have liked to 712 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 2: kick their backside, you know. Now, did you get long 713 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 2: Beach Day? 714 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 3: Probably the least likely team to make the Big Dance. 715 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:44,960 Speaker 3: So there's that all right.

Are you familiar 727 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 3: with the Kinpomerankings. 728 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 2: Yes, I am. 729 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 3: Okay, Well, it's good news for your Arizona Wildcats because 730 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 3: the Kinpomerankings again, this is this is stuff that I'm 731 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 3: sure makes non college basketball fans lose their minds and 732 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 3: the casuals are all excited because it might be the 733 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:43,359 Speaker 3: way to help you fill out your bracket. But kin 734 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 3: pomroys in depth numbers related bracket breakdown has a lot 735 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 3: of success. Look at the result of the last fifteen tournaments. 736 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 3: Arnie from Kansas cutting Nethernts in eight to Yukon winning 737 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 3: last year. Only six of the sixty teams that went 738 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 3: into the tournament ranked outside of the top twenty in 739 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,840 Speaker 3: and kin Pom's rankings advanced to the final four. So 740 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 3: it's it's if you're in the top twenty of the 741 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 3: king Pom rankings, you got a chance to go to 742 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 3: the final four. Guess who's right there in that mix, 743 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 3: Arizona Wildcats. According to the kin Pom rankings, your final 744 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 3: four should be Yukun, Arizona, Houston, and consistent March underachiever Rick. 745 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 2: Barnes in Tennessee. We don't talk about that title. Here's 746 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:41,840 Speaker 2: a guy that's like a mathematician, statistician, got masters, they 747 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 2: got a degree, you know, got all this education. And 748 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 2: I came to the same conclusion that he came to 749 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 2: without all that stuff. You know what I mean. I'm 750 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:56,319 Speaker 2: not a statistician. I'm not crunching numbers. I just watched 751 00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 2: with my own two eyes and all that. He came 752 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,000 Speaker 2: out to the same thing I came out there. You 753 00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:04,400 Speaker 2: came out that's your final four. No, that's not my fun. Well, 754 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:09,360 Speaker 2: I had Kentucky, Tennessee, Connecticut, and Arizona you had, so 755 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,120 Speaker 2: you had three of the four. Yeah, I have three 756 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 2: of the four. That is kind of amazing out there. 757 00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 2: Maybe you should have the ARNI rankings. You know, that's 758 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 2: a damn good idea. 759 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 3: Every single week you break out your yellow notepad. Yes, 760 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 3: and in Roman numeral form, you say, I don't need math. 761 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 3: I've got these two things here and your eyes. Yes, exactly. 762 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,240 Speaker 3: And it's we got to come up with a fancy 763 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 3: name for it, the span your metrics model. 764 00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 2: Or something like right metrics model, which makes no sense 765 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,359 Speaker 2: at all. I mean, it's just like, what does that mean. 766 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 2: It's like, well, it's math. 767 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure that if you tell enough people that 768 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:52,719 Speaker 3: it's a mathematical formula, oh yeah, and you just oh yeah, 769 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:53,400 Speaker 3: they'll believe you. 770 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 2: They will. You know. I love the way that everybody 771 00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:57,920 Speaker 2: knew that Indiana State wasn't going to make the tournament 772 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 2: when it was like they were gonna make all kinds 773 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 2: of records for being the highest ranked team never to 774 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,320 Speaker 2: make the NCAA turn up. But everybody already knew that, 775 00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 2: huh yeah, everybody. 776 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 3: But if you had the spaniard what do we say, 777 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 3: span your span your metric system? No, no, the span 778 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 3: your metric matrix. Oh dude, these college nerds would be 779 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:19,840 Speaker 3: all over. 780 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 2: That can I charge for that? Can? 781 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 3: Of course you can't, Yes, start a subscription website and 782 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:26,680 Speaker 3: make them pay for. 783 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 2: It, but it's a good idea. 784 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 3: You know what's become the popular upset over the last 785 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 3: few years. It's not the five verses twelve still happened, 786 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:37,200 Speaker 3: but the four thirteens. 787 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, have been a big spot for upsets the year. 788 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 2: And I have four to thirteen, which is my Vermont 789 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:46,760 Speaker 2: Catamounts beating Duke in the first round there in Brooklyn. 790 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 3: I actually have two four thirteens. Ooh, I oh, I 791 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 3: have more head state over Illinois. You have more head 792 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,240 Speaker 3: state over Illinois. That's isn't Illinois a three? 793 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 2: Yeah? Illinois? Well, there are fourteen seed Yes, yes, I 794 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 2: have that one. I think Charleston's really good. 795 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:04,720 Speaker 3: I think Samford's really good. 796 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:08,320 Speaker 2: I think you both win two. I have Sandford over Kansas. 797 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,960 Speaker 3: Well, and Kansas is beat up. I mean, if you're. 798 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:14,879 Speaker 2: Thinking they are Dickinson's and so is mccullar. He hasn't 799 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 2: played in a couple of weeks. 800 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 3: Here's the thing that does suck, and and this is 801 00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:23,760 Speaker 3: not old man yelling at clouds, but with the explosion 802 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 3: of legalized cambling. What do you still not have universally 803 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 3: in college sports? Arn'ty, you don't have injury reports. So 804 00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:38,320 Speaker 3: how in the world can you bet four or against 805 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 3: Kansas when you don't know if two of their best 806 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:42,920 Speaker 3: players are going to be available? 807 00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 2: No, and what's the line in that, like seven or 808 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:46,600 Speaker 2: something to that effect? 809 00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 3: That not what you say, Kansas? It is seven and 810 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:50,160 Speaker 3: a half. 811 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 2: Is the west I've seen. 812 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, the best number you could get is seven the 813 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 3: world the best if far as if you're going with Sandford, 814 00:38:57,600 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 3: is seven. Right now, I bet three sixty five. But 815 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 3: I mean the NCAA and I don't even know what 816 00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,319 Speaker 3: power they would have to do this. The conferences need 817 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 3: to do something, not to like bend the knee to 818 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:12,520 Speaker 3: the gambling community. But like you, we don't know that. 819 00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 3: We don't know the health of the best players on Kansas. 820 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 3: I mean, if you're gonna beat on the women's basketball tournament, 821 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 3: we don't know the health of the best player. 822 00:39:19,800 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 2: Maybe I can figure out where these games are. It 823 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 2: doesn't make sense. Are you telling me in the women's 824 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,720 Speaker 2: tournament that the top sixteen seeds host games? That's right, 825 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 2: So Arizona's got to go to Portland what Maine to 826 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 2: play a playing game. Then they gotta fight at Syracuse 827 00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:38,719 Speaker 2: to play Syracuse. Then they got to fight at Connecticut 828 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 2: to play Connecticut, all within like five days. 829 00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 3: Probably, I don't know if it's playing games. I'm not 830 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,400 Speaker 3: gonna lie. I literally just did a women's college basketball 831 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 3: selection show and as we were going through it, they 832 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 3: said playing game, and I was like, huh, how about that? 833 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:53,479 Speaker 3: Didn't know the women's tournament had a play in game. 834 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 3: I think I learned something today.

Whenever all the bid Steelers 868 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 3: started winning. 869 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 2: There was a lot this year, there was a lot. 870 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,279 Speaker 3: It was more than I've ever seen, right, I mean, 871 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,319 Speaker 3: you think about it. New Mexico wasn't a lock? What 872 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 3: uab stole a bid? North Carolina State? 873 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 2: Yep? 874 00:41:44,400 --> 00:41:46,399 Speaker 3: So I mean there was just three. Off the top 875 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 3: of my head. I know there's at least two more, 876 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 3: but I wasn't feeling good about it. 877 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 2: Arnie. 878 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 3: You know they you I don't know how I'm so 879 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 3: nerdy about the selection process because it was my beat, 880 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 3: you know, late nineties, early two thousands, and they'd always 881 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:05,240 Speaker 3: talk about how you're playing in your final ten games mattered, 882 00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 3: how injuries mattered. They remember when who was a Kenyon 883 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,680 Speaker 3: Martin got hurt for Cincinnati and drive him from a 884 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,400 Speaker 3: one to like a two. And we've seen it happen 885 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:18,399 Speaker 3: before with other injuries. So I mean, I just oklahomadt't 886 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 3: played well over its final ten games. I want to 887 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 3: say they were like three and seven. Now, I think 888 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 3: two things can be true. I think it was probably 889 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,480 Speaker 3: a reach to say that they were a lock. But 890 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,359 Speaker 3: it's also ridiculous that a team like Virginia would get 891 00:42:33,360 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 3: in over them. I mean that's just rediculous. Virginia stinks 892 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 3: and the fact that they're in the tournament is just 893 00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:45,839 Speaker 3: it's it's, in my opinion, selection committee malpractice. 894 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:47,960 Speaker 2: Right. If you're a Virginia fan, I don't even think 895 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,920 Speaker 2: you want to watch that team anymore. I don't. If 896 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 2: we're going to use the numbers and all these computer 897 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:59,560 Speaker 2: systems and stuff like that, then use them. And Indiana 898 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 2: State just based on the numbers. And I saw the 899 00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 2: numbers flash across the screen, and you know, I don't 900 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:07,239 Speaker 2: know what exactly's input it, but you know, you learning 901 00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 2: the quad ones, the quad twos and all that stuff. 902 00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 2: But whatever the numbers and the computers come up with, 903 00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 2: that's fine with me if you're going to use them. 904 00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,319 Speaker 2: And in the United States numbers were better than I 905 00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:21,360 Speaker 2: think three or four teams that had made the tournament. 906 00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 2: That doesn't seem right to me. You know. Well, and 907 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 2: here's the other thing. 908 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 3: We won't bore you with the minutia of it, but 909 00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 3: take some time if you have free time, because where 910 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 3: all of our time is precious, But take some time. 911 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 3: It's on the NCAA's website to go look at the 912 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 3: selection process and what they do. It's the most confusing 913 00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,359 Speaker 3: thing I've ever looked at in my life, and I 914 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 3: feel like I'm somewhat smart when it comes to sports. 915 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 3: It's like we then we take a ballot on who's 916 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 3: the top fifty, then we go back and we talk 917 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 3: about and you can only have factual conversations, and if 918 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,480 Speaker 3: you are somewhat affiliated with the team, you gotta leave 919 00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,879 Speaker 3: the I mean, it's just all these things work into it. 920 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,239 Speaker 3: When I feel like we're over complicating something, Arnie, that 921 00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 3: should be easy. Am I sitting here fighting and scratching 922 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 3: and clawing that Oklhoma deserve to be in Now? 923 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 2: I get it. I understand why they're not. 924 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:13,959 Speaker 3: But do they deserve to be in over a team 925 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 3: like Virginia or even Colorado State? 926 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,360 Speaker 2: Absolutely? I don't know why they don't mix it up 927 00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,600 Speaker 2: and have other people, Like why can't I be on 928 00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:22,839 Speaker 2: the Turnamin or Doug Gottlieb be on the turn Heck, 929 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:26,080 Speaker 2: if Connaliza Rights could be on the football committee, I 930 00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 2: don't know why Doug gottlieberd myself can't be on the 931 00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:31,759 Speaker 2: basketball selection committee or something that why not add a 932 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 2: few more people to this? Well? 933 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 3: I really appreciate that, Arnie, but I think Doug would 934 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 3: definitely get the nod over you, Okay, I'll. 935 00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:40,279 Speaker 2: Give it to Doug. Fight So why can't Doug? If 936 00:44:40,320 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 2: Connaliza Rights could be on one, why can't Doug Gottlie 937 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 2: be on one? Don't know, that's a great question. 938 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 3: I mean usually usually to be a part of the 939 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 3: selection committees, you're probably an administrator. You're trying to work 940 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:54,839 Speaker 3: your way up the ladder a little bit and be uh, 941 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean it's pretty high honor to 942 00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 3: be on the selection committee. 943 00:44:58,120 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 2: Can you imagine if Jay Billis was on it could 944 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 2: be number one every year? My gosh, j Billis, what 945 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,879 Speaker 2: did you think about that girl sitting behind the Jay 946 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:06,839 Speaker 2: Billis and the guys. 947 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:08,680 Speaker 3: Did you see that the one that was holding up 948 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 3: the War's duke thing? 949 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, with the with the was that a girl?

I still like the n I want 1005 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,799 Speaker 3: a reason to still watch. I know they don't think 1006 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 3: you do. Sixteen said six or seven O Clomba was 1007 00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 3: one of them, said no, thank you, Saint John's I mean, listen, 1008 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:07,440 Speaker 3: Rick Patino. Indiana, Indiana, what what the hell was Indiana? 1009 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 3: Even in the mix for the n I T. I 1010 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,239 Speaker 3: feel like Indiana said no, we're not interested in the 1011 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 3: n I T and the n it was like, okay. 1012 00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:17,359 Speaker 2: Just the end of the n. 1013 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,600 Speaker 3: It's no, it's not the end of the n IT. 1014 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,920 Speaker 3: If anything, well, okay, hold on, hold on. If they 1015 00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:26,920 Speaker 3: expand the Big Dance, then maybe because you know, the 1016 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:28,719 Speaker 3: rumor is they're going to double the size of the 1017 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,880 Speaker 3: NCAA tournament, right and go. I don't know if it'd 1018 00:48:31,880 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 3: be like one thirty, but with as many teams that 1019 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,359 Speaker 3: play college basketball, they want to make it a little 1020 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 3: bit larger in D one. But I don't maybe so, 1021 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 3: maybe so it would still be a reward to me. 1022 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,040 Speaker 3: If I was a player, I wouldn't want to play 1023 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 3: in the postseason. Keep to play, continue to play. But 1024 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 3: who knows? Oklahoma said no, Saint John said no. Several 1025 00:48:49,480 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 3: others did. I wish they would have. I wish they 1026 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:52,040 Speaker 3: would have said yes. 1027 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 2: But I get it not kind of being a soul 1028 00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 2: loser when you do something like that. 1029 00:48:56,040 --> 00:48:58,239 Speaker 3: I guess it could be viewed that way. I guess 1030 00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:01,239 Speaker 3: it could. Maybe you're deemed up, maybe you're beat up, 1031 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 3: and these games these guys would push through. Well, I 1032 00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 3: know Oklaoma is and there are three guys that are hurt. 1033 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 3: Maybe they wouldn't be able to play. They play your freshmen, 1034 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 3: I think they have one. Do you even have you 1035 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 3: paid attention to roster makeups in college basketball anymore? 1036 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:17,799 Speaker 2: I was about to say, why don't you play the 1037 00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:19,919 Speaker 2: five guys that never get to get into a game? 1038 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 2: How about that? 1039 00:49:20,800 --> 00:49:22,680 Speaker 3: There's not a lot of freshmen that are just sitting 1040 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:26,279 Speaker 3: around waiting to get in the game, because they go 1041 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:30,240 Speaker 3: somewhere else and start playing right away the tournament is out. 1042 00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 2: But here's the question I have for you. 1043 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,399 Speaker 3: It's Arnie and plank as we come to you live 1044 00:49:33,680 --> 00:49:38,120 Speaker 3: from the tire rack dot com studios tire rack dot com. 1045 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:39,560 Speaker 2: You will help you get there. 1046 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:42,320 Speaker 3: Not match selection, fast free shipping, free roadhaszard protection, and 1047 00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 3: over ten thousand recommended installers tire rack dot com the 1048 00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 3: way a tire buying should be. Arnie is the women's 1049 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:54,280 Speaker 3: tournament more intriguing or at least littered with bigger names 1050 00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:55,200 Speaker 3: than the men's tournament. 1051 00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 2: Probably bigger names, I'll give you that. I gotta be 1052 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:04,239 Speaker 2: honest with you, because I did watch the selection show 1053 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,960 Speaker 2: for the women's because I wanted to see if my 1054 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:10,400 Speaker 2: Arizona Wildcats got it, which they did. They're gonna be 1055 00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 2: in the playing game, but they didn't explain it very 1056 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,600 Speaker 2: well at all. I mean, everything was like I thought 1057 00:50:17,600 --> 00:50:20,799 Speaker 2: everything every game was an Albany in Portland. It's like, guy, 1058 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 2: they're in another game at Albany. I had no idea 1059 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 2: that the first two rounds are hosted by the higher 1060 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 2: citing teams, which I'm not even sure how that's possible. 1061 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 2: Since you're telling me Arizona's got to go to Portland, 1062 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 2: play on Thursday, go to Syracuse, play on Saturday, go 1063 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 2: to Connecticut and play on Monday. That's more fine than 1064 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,719 Speaker 2: the NFL and the NBA does, so I'm not sure 1065 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 2: how that's all working, to be honest. Well, but here's 1066 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 2: my question. 1067 00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:55,759 Speaker 3: There is quite the debate as to whether or not 1068 00:50:55,960 --> 00:51:00,239 Speaker 3: with names that we know and specifically Caitlin Clark, and 1069 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:02,920 Speaker 3: I'm sure this is going to be a debate on you. 1070 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:04,239 Speaker 2: Know here on Fox Sports Radio. 1071 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 3: And I'm sure beyond is the women's tournament doesn't have 1072 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:08,239 Speaker 3: the bigger. 1073 00:51:08,080 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 2: Names right now, Angel Rees and Juju Watkins and what 1074 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 2: was the freshman's name at Notre Dame Who I like 1075 00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 2: the guard? Oh, she's great, she's I like her a lot, Yeah, 1076 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 2: a lot. 1077 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:24,759 Speaker 3: She's yere Canah Hidalgo. 1078 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Hidalgo. Yeah. There are some big names. I mean 1079 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 2: you do. I mean, look, I know everybody on Arizona's roster. 1080 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 2: I could rather you that off. But you know, as 1081 00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:38,279 Speaker 2: it goes across around the country, you know, as I'm 1082 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,480 Speaker 2: watching the games on the conference tournaments from the smaller 1083 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,359 Speaker 2: teams in the mid majors, you get to you get 1084 00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 2: to know some of the names, but mostly they're not 1085 00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 2: as intriguing or even close as intriguing as the women's 1086 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 2: right now. I could go back. 1087 00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:57,400 Speaker 3: I could go back and probably reel off like starting 1088 00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:01,839 Speaker 3: fives from like midties Illinois teams. 1089 00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 2: When I was a kid. 1090 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 3: It like some of the early like even I wasn't 1091 00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:08,400 Speaker 3: an Arizona fan, aren't he? But I remember those dudes 1092 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,880 Speaker 3: that played with Sean Elliott and Gamd Stottamayer. Right, I 1093 00:52:11,920 --> 00:52:14,040 Speaker 3: feel like we've got to and I don't know what 1094 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:15,720 Speaker 3: to do to fix it. I don't know if anyone 1095 00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:18,360 Speaker 3: cares to fix it. We got a problem in college 1096 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,440 Speaker 3: basketball right now. I mean, nobody stays at a place 1097 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 3: for more than a year, and then if they're not 1098 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,480 Speaker 3: staying in college for more than a year, they're turning 1099 00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 3: pro right away. 1100 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:31,959 Speaker 2: Nobody's staying anywhere. Do you feel any less excited about 1101 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,800 Speaker 2: the tournament because there's not a lot of big names 1102 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,000 Speaker 2: in the men's circuit, or you're just as excited as 1103 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 2: ever because it's March Madness. It's about the filling out 1104 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:44,879 Speaker 2: the brackets and the upsets and all that stuff out there. 1105 00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:47,200 Speaker 3: Do you know why I'm excited because I'm like you, 1106 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 3: I just love this. I love having been somewhat of 1107 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,959 Speaker 3: a casual fan of men's college basketball all season long, 1108 00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:57,880 Speaker 3: then suddenly outside listen. I watched every game in the 1109 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,560 Speaker 3: Big Twelve, in every Oklahoma game. But if you're asking 1110 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 3: me to break down the front court for a Gonzaga 1111 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:06,400 Speaker 3: or Utah State or even Virginia. I'm out, you know, 1112 00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 3: I have no clue, but it's it's also fun to 1113 00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:11,719 Speaker 3: sit here and make these picks and talk about who 1114 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 3: might make a run and get. 1115 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:17,120 Speaker 2: Up about that. It's great brackets and stuff like that. 1116 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:19,400 Speaker 2: That's what people are. It's not so much for the 1117 00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:23,040 Speaker 2: big names, though in the women's game it certainly has 1118 00:53:23,040 --> 00:53:23,960 Speaker 2: no doubt about that. 1119 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,680 Speaker 3: You and I think is it fair to say that 1120 00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:29,920 Speaker 3: gambling has helped too on the women's side and on 1121 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:30,720 Speaker 3: the men's side. 1122 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 2: I don't think there's a lot of gambling on the 1123 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:37,239 Speaker 2: women's side during the regular season, maybe more so in 1124 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 2: the tournament, but I don't think all that much, to 1125 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 2: be honest. 1126 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 3: With you know, Okay, Well, I find it fascinating to 1127 00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:46,800 Speaker 3: see all the excitement around the women's tournament because it's deserved. 1128 00:53:47,560 --> 00:53:50,440 Speaker 3: And while we're excited about college basketball and we're talking 1129 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 3: about it wall to wall tonight, Arnie, when throughout the 1130 00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:57,880 Speaker 3: regular season have we even talked about college basketball on 1131 00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 3: the show except for you yelling something about Arizona. 1132 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:05,400 Speaker 2: Only when Philipowski gets tripped or trip somebody else or 1133 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,000 Speaker 2: they stormed the chord? What was going on? Never do 1134 00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:10,279 Speaker 2: we really talk about the games or break it down. 1135 00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:13,840 Speaker 2: It's always it's some type of controversy, right, Chris, somebody 1136 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:18,319 Speaker 2: stormed the cord, somebody tripped somebody. Let's make fun of Duke. 1137 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 2: You know, the Hurley's showing it. The fans wants to 1138 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:24,799 Speaker 2: kick somebody's backside, right, which is what after every game? 1139 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:28,080 Speaker 2: Isn't it that? Pretty much? Maybe we could bring that up, 1140 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 2: but no, very rarely. I mean sometimes there's a you know, 1141 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 2: a big shot that ends a game and like did 1142 00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:37,880 Speaker 2: you see that? And or did you why didn't you 1143 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:39,839 Speaker 2: foul when you're up by three and let him get 1144 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 2: the shot off? That will be brought up during the tournament. 1145 00:54:42,680 --> 00:54:44,600 Speaker 2: But you're right, for the most part, it's got to 1146 00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:45,400 Speaker 2: be a controversy. 1147 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 3: I have something bad happening in my bracket. I'm filling 1148 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:52,400 Speaker 3: out right now. Arnie, Oh no, got all chalk. There's 1149 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:54,920 Speaker 3: no way that four number one seeds are going to 1150 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:55,600 Speaker 3: the final four. 1151 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:57,719 Speaker 2: It's tough to Yeah, it's tough to go ahead once 1152 00:54:57,760 --> 00:54:59,799 Speaker 2: you get that deep into it. Like I said at 1153 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:02,840 Speaker 2: the the episodes early but it took me like seven 1154 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 2: minutes to fill out my bracket. I did it, by 1155 00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:07,960 Speaker 2: the way, Mike bracket had a mistake in it, you 1156 00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:11,439 Speaker 2: know that. Oh yeah, it had James Madison's record thirty 1157 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:16,520 Speaker 2: one and thirteen. Ah did it? Yeah did? But I'm 1158 00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,760 Speaker 2: my god that I couldn't find any other printable brackets 1159 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,200 Speaker 2: at the time, and because I wanted to get mined 1160 00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:24,520 Speaker 2: in right away, and I was the first bracket I 1161 00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:26,360 Speaker 2: could find, so I just printed it from the New 1162 00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 2: York Post. Well done, well done.

Todd, what a great week? Right as 1180 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 3: far as one to fifty two is concerned. In the 1181 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:27,000 Speaker 3: Sports Week depth chart, this one coming up's pretty high, 1182 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:27,440 Speaker 3: isn't it. 1183 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,600 Speaker 6: There's no doubt the energy and excitement about the Cinderella 1184 00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 6: runs that we didn't see coming, which blue Blood will 1185 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 6: find themselves going home for the season before we get 1186 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:38,239 Speaker 6: into the sweet sixteen, and trying to figure out which 1187 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:41,480 Speaker 6: teams probably deserve a seat at the table the disturbing trend. 1188 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:43,600 Speaker 6: And I think, unfortunately it's the college world that we 1189 00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,000 Speaker 6: live in now. A number of those perennial powers, so 1190 00:56:46,080 --> 00:56:48,759 Speaker 6: to speak, where the folks that got snubbed declining their 1191 00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,279 Speaker 6: invitations to the NIT and I have to imagine it's 1192 00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:53,280 Speaker 6: the beginning of the end of that secondary tournament. 1193 00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:55,880 Speaker 2: Todd, do you jump ball over those playing games? Do 1194 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:57,960 Speaker 2: you think you have advantage in the you know, like 1195 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:00,400 Speaker 2: the Wagner Howard game and stuff like that, doubt or 1196 00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:01,360 Speaker 2: what you know. 1197 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:04,320 Speaker 6: I won't say it's a massive advantage. It's handicapping these games. 1198 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 6: The same way you would any other on the board. 1199 00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:08,720 Speaker 6: Odds makers are scrambling to try and figure out exactly 1200 00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:10,480 Speaker 6: how these teams will match up with one another. But 1201 00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,319 Speaker 6: gone or some of the days of the very inefficient 1202 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:15,680 Speaker 6: numbers where you could grab the real bad teams that 1203 00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:19,280 Speaker 6: were seven eight points inflated over some of the perennial powers. 1204 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,320 Speaker 6: Although this field compared to years past, you're seeing some 1205 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 6: bigger numbers between those two threes and even the four seeds, 1206 00:57:25,520 --> 00:57:27,440 Speaker 6: and I think that speaks to how a lot of 1207 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:30,320 Speaker 6: these mid major tournaments saw a bevy of upsets and 1208 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:33,360 Speaker 6: it almost felt like number one seeds in conference tournaments 1209 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:35,439 Speaker 6: this year in terms of coming out with the automatic bid. 1210 00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:37,520 Speaker 2: We're in endangered speed. But I'm sorry, Chris, I have 1211 00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:41,160 Speaker 2: this O board. Did I see somebody put on Twitter 1212 00:57:41,200 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 2: that Jay Billis was completing Vegas doesn't know what they're 1213 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 2: talking about when they put on some of these lines, 1214 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 2: especially the Grand Canyon lines that these days like that 1215 00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:50,360 Speaker 2: or what. 1216 00:57:50,920 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 6: I didn't hear the comments. But again, anytime anybody that 1217 00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 6: does college basketball for a living wants to try and 1218 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,640 Speaker 6: match what they think they know versus a betting market, 1219 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:00,959 Speaker 6: I implore them to try and do so because even 1220 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 6: folks that live and breathe a sport that don't understand 1221 00:58:03,800 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 6: the mathematical permutations and everything that go into it have 1222 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 6: proven time and time again number crunchers who couldn't name 1223 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:12,680 Speaker 6: the secondary point guard on any of these teams will 1224 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:15,360 Speaker 6: will signific do significantly better this time of year than 1225 00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:17,240 Speaker 6: those folks who think they know more than the betting market. 1226 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 2: It's true, this is true. 1227 00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:20,680 Speaker 3: So Todd, when you got your first look at the 1228 00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 3: lines in the bracket, was there any value that jumped 1229 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 3: out to you? Did you like the number that surrounded 1230 00:58:26,560 --> 00:58:29,680 Speaker 3: Grand Canyon? Because I think that's a really good potential 1231 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 3: twelve five upset for Bryce Drewe. 1232 00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:34,080 Speaker 6: I mean, it's a good team in Grand Canyon that 1233 00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:37,200 Speaker 6: came through a conference that I think they were tested 1234 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:39,280 Speaker 6: a little bit more than they have been in years past. 1235 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 6: The whack was significantly better. Would have preferred them playing 1236 00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 6: Charlatan State to get a better litmus test there, although 1237 00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,040 Speaker 6: even if that was a matchup, they would have qualified 1238 00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:50,760 Speaker 6: regardless of winning the conference tournament. But you're looking at 1239 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:52,440 Speaker 6: a team like Saint Mary's, he wants to play a 1240 00:58:52,440 --> 00:58:54,600 Speaker 6: little bit more in the half court. They're not necessarily 1241 00:58:54,640 --> 00:58:57,080 Speaker 6: the same battle tested team coming out of the WCC. 1242 00:58:57,840 --> 00:58:59,640 Speaker 6: And look, this number is four and a half for 1243 00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:02,800 Speaker 6: Res and there's not a huge disparity between these two teams. 1244 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:05,760 Speaker 6: Grand Canyon has been a perennial tournament team in the past, 1245 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,280 Speaker 6: and we know that Randy Bennett's squads have struggled in 1246 00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:11,120 Speaker 6: games like this. So anytime you're talking about a lower 1247 00:59:11,160 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 6: total and a couple of de facto mid majors, no 1248 00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 6: disrespect meant to either program. You know, these are the 1249 00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 6: games that are always intriguing, and you'll see a contrast 1250 00:59:18,320 --> 00:59:20,440 Speaker 6: in styles where I think Grand Canyon'll be more than 1251 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:22,560 Speaker 6: happy to play this in the half court or try 1252 00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:24,360 Speaker 6: and push the pace in tempo a little bit, knowing 1253 00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 6: that they have some scoring depth that Saint Mary's may 1254 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:28,320 Speaker 6: not contend with on a night in, night out basis. 1255 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 2: In the West Coast Conference, Oh Todd, we're going to 1256 00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 2: get a lot of first and second round upsets. I 1257 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:35,000 Speaker 2: just don't think we'll see him after the Sweet sixteen. 1258 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:38,040 Speaker 2: Just look at the first round. I like like James Madison, 1259 00:59:38,920 --> 00:59:42,600 Speaker 2: I love McNeese, and I kind of like Zamford because 1260 00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:44,720 Speaker 2: of the bad situations like Kansas. 1261 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:46,880 Speaker 6: Is in you know, well, you mentioned the injury situation. 1262 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,560 Speaker 6: I think that's what everyone in the college basketball world, 1263 00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:51,960 Speaker 6: even those folks outside of Lawrence, will be watching. Are 1264 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 6: we going to see mccoler and Dickinson back in the 1265 00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:57,280 Speaker 6: fold if they're not there. I think the forty minutes 1266 00:59:57,320 --> 01:00:00,000 Speaker 6: we saw against Cincinnati exposed the Kansas team that wasn't 1267 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 6: overly deep when they had their full complement of players 1268 01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:05,040 Speaker 6: and just doesn't have some of those secondary options. So 1269 01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 6: that'll be an interesting storyline to follow, the same way 1270 01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:09,840 Speaker 6: it will be if Marque gets Tyler Clark back at 1271 01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:13,600 Speaker 6: the point guard position, although they acquitted themselves quite nicely 1272 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 6: for the most part in the Biggist Tournament, and you 1273 01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:18,360 Speaker 6: mentioned some of the other potential upsets that are out there. 1274 01:00:18,520 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 6: You know, this was five or seven years ago we'd 1275 01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 6: be able to get seven and a half eight points 1276 01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 6: with McNeese. I'm not sure you're stealing anything with this 1277 01:00:24,640 --> 01:00:27,000 Speaker 6: number at six, but Gonzaga will be in for a 1278 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,120 Speaker 6: forty minute fight. McNeice one of the few teams in 1279 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:31,360 Speaker 6: the tournament that can boast thirty wins on their resume, 1280 01:00:32,040 --> 01:00:34,520 Speaker 6: and as a coach who's been there and done that before, 1281 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:36,720 Speaker 6: that would love nothing more than to kind of give 1282 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:40,520 Speaker 6: the proverbial middle finger to the NCAA in general, given 1283 01:00:40,560 --> 01:00:42,800 Speaker 6: everything he's gone through. So it's always fun to digest 1284 01:00:42,800 --> 01:00:46,000 Speaker 6: these matchups. You mentioned Wisconsin, and I think Jmu and 1285 01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:49,360 Speaker 6: other team that Wisconsin probably wasn't thrilled to draw in 1286 01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:51,960 Speaker 6: that five to twelve matchup. But the good thing for Wisconsin, 1287 01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 6: they do get an extra day, don't have to travel 1288 01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:57,000 Speaker 6: that far playing at the Barkley Center in Brooklyn. I 1289 01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:59,280 Speaker 6: always think the teams that are playing on Sunday are 1290 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:01,400 Speaker 6: done a little bit of a disservice, and we've seen 1291 01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:04,160 Speaker 6: that before. Each of the last three Big Ten Conference 1292 01:01:04,240 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 6: champions have bowed out before we got to the sweet sixteen. 1293 01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:09,560 Speaker 6: So I'm not gonna put Illinois necessarily and upset alert 1294 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 6: right away against Morehead. But that's a team that has 1295 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 6: been allergic to playing defense since conference play started, and 1296 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:17,040 Speaker 6: Morehead will be more than comfortable to turn that. If 1297 01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 6: you track me with the fighting line, I have. 1298 01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:20,520 Speaker 2: Morehead stayed winning that game. By the way, just want 1299 01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:20,920 Speaker 2: to William. 1300 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 6: You know, Chris, when you look at Ardie's bracket, did 1301 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:25,240 Speaker 6: you have every double digit seed winning? So that way, 1302 01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 6: when we see a couple of upsets, he can claim 1303 01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:29,720 Speaker 6: he called out one even if he's formed fourteen in 1304 01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:31,320 Speaker 6: those particular matchups. 1305 01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 3: Call that one even though he missed the other ones. Hey, 1306 01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:35,760 Speaker 3: you know, I feel like I bring this up to you. 1307 01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 3: At least I don't know once or twice during college season, 1308 01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:43,520 Speaker 3: but Kansas steinged up. We don't know about Marquette, star player, 1309 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:47,600 Speaker 3: other injury situations. It's got to be just a nightmare 1310 01:01:47,640 --> 01:01:50,720 Speaker 3: for Vegas. Right for professional handicappers, you got to count 1311 01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:53,600 Speaker 3: on your sources. But when will we get a universal, 1312 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:58,920 Speaker 3: a uniform injury reporting policy, Because I mean, this is 1313 01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:02,160 Speaker 3: the difference to me in wanting to put Marquette on 1314 01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:04,560 Speaker 3: to the Sweet sixteen or Kansas on to the Sweet sixteen, 1315 01:02:04,840 --> 01:02:06,919 Speaker 3: or maybe have them losing in the first round based 1316 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 3: on these injuries. 1317 01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:10,240 Speaker 6: Well that's the thing. I mean, you're filling out a bracket. 1318 01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 6: It's a little bit of a different dynamics than handicappers 1319 01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:14,160 Speaker 6: and odds makers. And when you look at the number 1320 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:16,280 Speaker 6: here with Kansas only a seven, seven and a half 1321 01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:18,640 Speaker 6: point favorite against Sanford, that's kind of a hybrid line. 1322 01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 6: That doesn't suggest to me that odds makers are one 1323 01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 6: hundred percent comfortable that Kansas will be at full strength 1324 01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:26,560 Speaker 6: to the game on Thursday because that number. If those 1325 01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 6: players get upgraded, you'll see balloon out. If both efficially 1326 01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:31,680 Speaker 6: get ruled out, we could be talking about Sanford closing 1327 01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 6: a five five and a half point underdog, maybe even 1328 01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:37,000 Speaker 6: a little bit more. And unfortunately for folks that wanted 1329 01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:39,600 Speaker 6: to make a compelling case for Sanford, you know, Kansas 1330 01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:43,040 Speaker 6: losing by twenty against Cincinnati and the ways of public 1331 01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:46,400 Speaker 6: perception doesn't do them any justice trying to extract a 1332 01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:48,800 Speaker 6: little bit more aligned value than you otherwise would have 1333 01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:51,080 Speaker 6: anticipated in that kind of showdown, Todd. 1334 01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:53,240 Speaker 2: You talk about math. Let me just get this correct. 1335 01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:56,760 Speaker 2: If I say years one hundred dollars and you got 1336 01:02:56,800 --> 01:03:00,440 Speaker 2: to give you back sixteen hundred dollars, why are we 1337 01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 2: not all betting Arizona sixty the one do you get? Maybeck? 1338 01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:09,000 Speaker 6: Come on, were you thrilled with the tremendous performance that 1339 01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:11,600 Speaker 6: Tommy Lloyd put forth against stinte Altman in the Pac 1340 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 6: twelve semifinals when he was coached into a pretzel by 1341 01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:19,080 Speaker 6: Dana and what this Oregon team typically does. Look Arizona 1342 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:21,720 Speaker 6: Arnie the reason to be optimistic for them, they're the 1343 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:24,080 Speaker 6: only non number one seed favored to come out of 1344 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 6: their region. But price wise, when you look at the 1345 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 6: numbers there, they're right around five to two. North Carolina 1346 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:31,640 Speaker 6: at seven to two, and I think when you go 1347 01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:34,560 Speaker 6: through the West region, I mean, Arizona was handed a 1348 01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:37,120 Speaker 6: little bit of a lifeline there. North Carolina doesn't wow 1349 01:03:37,160 --> 01:03:39,240 Speaker 6: you with anything they do in terms of being a 1350 01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:42,880 Speaker 6: perfectly constructed basketball team. We've seen Baylor be a little 1351 01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:45,200 Speaker 6: bit logic to defense in their own right. Alabama, we 1352 01:03:45,360 --> 01:03:47,480 Speaker 6: wants to play every game in the nineties, So there's 1353 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:49,920 Speaker 6: no reason to believe that Arizona can't come out of 1354 01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:52,280 Speaker 6: the West. I just haven't seen enough from Tommy Lloyd 1355 01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:54,680 Speaker 6: and some of the adjustments on the fly that until 1356 01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:56,880 Speaker 6: that coach finally gets over the hump, you know, you 1357 01:03:56,960 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 6: kind of keep them at arms length in terms of 1358 01:03:59,200 --> 01:04:00,880 Speaker 6: their prospects National championships. 1359 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 2: Oh don't like that, Todd. They don't like that time, Todd. 1360 01:04:03,960 --> 01:04:05,600 Speaker 3: Final thought for me before I let you get out 1361 01:04:05,600 --> 01:04:08,920 Speaker 3: of here to not to get away from college hoops 1362 01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 3: on the college Hoops night, But what did you make 1363 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:13,720 Speaker 3: of the moves the Steelers made this week to solidify 1364 01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:16,080 Speaker 3: I mean, we talked you, I think you're on with 1365 01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,200 Speaker 3: us when we were learning about the Russell Wilson news 1366 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:20,800 Speaker 3: last week. But to add Justin Fields to that makes 1367 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:23,000 Speaker 3: what do you make of what Omar Cohn's doing in 1368 01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:24,000 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh right now? 1369 01:04:24,040 --> 01:04:25,120 Speaker 2: At that quarterback room. 1370 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:26,840 Speaker 6: Look, I thought the Bears were going to go into 1371 01:04:26,840 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 6: the draft with Justin Fields rather than trading him this 1372 01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:31,360 Speaker 6: far out, thinking they could get a little bit of 1373 01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:33,680 Speaker 6: a leverage if some of the other teams had panicked 1374 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:35,880 Speaker 6: and they were looking for a potential starting quarterback. But 1375 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:38,080 Speaker 6: give TheMark on a ton of credit. I mean he 1376 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:41,120 Speaker 6: turned a quarterback room in Kenny Pickett, Mitchell Trubisky, and 1377 01:04:41,160 --> 01:04:44,160 Speaker 6: Mason Rudolph into Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. And the 1378 01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:46,640 Speaker 6: interesting part about this, both of those quarterbacks on one 1379 01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:48,920 Speaker 6: year deals. It appears that they have defined roles that 1380 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 6: Russell Wilson will be the starting quarterback. Justin Fields knows 1381 01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,240 Speaker 6: he's coming in as a backup, and sometimes you want 1382 01:04:54,280 --> 01:04:56,200 Speaker 6: to dangle that carried out there for both of those 1383 01:04:56,240 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 6: guys to have something to prove. We'll see exactly what 1384 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:02,200 Speaker 6: the Steelers wan look like from a roster construction standpoint. 1385 01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:04,360 Speaker 6: I think there's a couple other pieces they need. But 1386 01:05:04,400 --> 01:05:06,800 Speaker 6: I do think it's an upgrade from going into the 1387 01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 6: season with Kenny Pickett thinking he was going to be 1388 01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 6: in a flat footed even battle with Russell Wilson. You 1389 01:05:11,240 --> 01:05:13,640 Speaker 6: take some of that pressure intention out of the locker room. 1390 01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:15,080 Speaker 6: But I'd like to see them do a little bit 1391 01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 6: more at the receiver position. Having traded Deontay Johnson, knowing 1392 01:05:18,720 --> 01:05:20,600 Speaker 6: that George Pickens is fine as a deep threat, but 1393 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:22,200 Speaker 6: who are you going to pair with him out there? 1394 01:05:22,320 --> 01:05:23,920 Speaker 6: I think that has to be one of the primarias 1395 01:05:23,920 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 6: of Pittsburgh addresses through the remaining free agency of trade 1396 01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:28,479 Speaker 6: or in the upcoming draft as well. 1397 01:05:28,560 --> 01:05:30,800 Speaker 2: You know. Elastic For me, Tod, I'm just kind of curious. 1398 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:33,640 Speaker 2: How do you go about betting the tournament? Do you 1399 01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:35,920 Speaker 2: do individual games? Do you do money lines? Do you 1400 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:38,360 Speaker 2: do parlays? Do you do odds? Just like, I'm going 1401 01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:40,680 Speaker 2: to take a team to win the whole thing, because 1402 01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:42,360 Speaker 2: I know in the NFL you never like to do 1403 01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:44,400 Speaker 2: that because you don't want to keep your money tied 1404 01:05:44,480 --> 01:05:46,840 Speaker 2: up for eight nine months. Here you're only keeping the 1405 01:05:46,880 --> 01:05:48,120 Speaker 2: tied up for three weeks, you know. 1406 01:05:48,680 --> 01:05:50,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's looking at some of the regions there are 1407 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:52,360 Speaker 6: going to be some teams that are going to offer 1408 01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:54,080 Speaker 6: a little bit of value. I know we talk about 1409 01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 6: the Cinderella stories all the time in college basketball, but 1410 01:05:56,800 --> 01:05:59,080 Speaker 6: typically there's only a handful of teams that can actually 1411 01:05:59,080 --> 01:06:01,400 Speaker 6: cut down the nets. You can have teams get hot, though, 1412 01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:04,200 Speaker 6: and win their region at some pretty strong prices, no 1413 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,040 Speaker 6: greater illustration than what both San Diego State and Florida 1414 01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 6: Atlantic were able to do a year ago. So you 1415 01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:11,240 Speaker 6: always want to try and keep that in mind. But 1416 01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:13,240 Speaker 6: for me, you know, I take a game by game. 1417 01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:15,480 Speaker 6: I don't like to get married to any my preconceived 1418 01:06:15,480 --> 01:06:17,560 Speaker 6: notions coming in and for just that reason, I know 1419 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 6: this is un American and it sounds like the antithesis 1420 01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:22,440 Speaker 6: of fun, but it's why I also don't fill out 1421 01:06:22,440 --> 01:06:24,800 Speaker 6: a bracket, because I don't want to be behold into 1422 01:06:24,880 --> 01:06:28,200 Speaker 6: my initial preconceived notions when things will change over the 1423 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:30,000 Speaker 6: course of a forty eighty or one hundred and twenty 1424 01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:30,920 Speaker 6: minute sample size. 1425 01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:34,080 Speaker 2: Far down, bear down, Tom, Thanks Dott, have a great week, buddy. 1426 01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:35,920 Speaker 2: We'll talk to you next Sunday.

Here in the top 1448 01:07:33,360 --> 01:07:35,840 Speaker 5: of the sixth he follows a Manny Machado walk with 1449 01:07:35,880 --> 01:07:39,160 Speaker 5: a two run homer. Padres lead the LG Twins of 1450 01:07:39,280 --> 01:07:41,840 Speaker 5: Korea for to one in the sixth. 1451 01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:44,080 Speaker 2: Other people at the scale, it is like sold out 1452 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:44,520 Speaker 2: or something. 1453 01:07:44,760 --> 01:07:48,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's not a large ballpark as far as 1454 01:07:48,240 --> 01:07:51,480 Speaker 5: seating capacity. It's a dome, so you know, they don't 1455 01:07:51,520 --> 01:07:53,919 Speaker 5: have to play games in forty five degrees at night there. 1456 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:57,400 Speaker 5: But it's it's more like what would they say, seventeen 1457 01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:00,640 Speaker 5: thousand or something. It's not an enormous Yeah, the crowds 1458 01:08:00,680 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 5: have been good. The Dodgers have already played an exhibition there. 1459 01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:06,720 Speaker 5: They have another one coming up at three am Pacific time, 1460 01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:10,880 Speaker 5: and then it'll be the And you know, with the 1461 01:08:10,880 --> 01:08:14,960 Speaker 5: low capacity, it's huge I can't say dollars, but huge 1462 01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:18,200 Speaker 5: prices being asked for for these tickets on a secondary market. 1463 01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:21,639 Speaker 5: To open the Major League season, two real games are 1464 01:08:21,640 --> 01:08:24,799 Speaker 5: going to be played at that place Wednesday morning, Thursday morning. 1465 01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:26,360 Speaker 5: Padres against the Dodge. 1466 01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 2: Is already being messed up about the arena, I mean 1467 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 2: those stadium like short fences or the space short or 1468 01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:33,439 Speaker 2: anything like that. 1469 01:08:33,600 --> 01:08:36,640 Speaker 5: No, there is no pitch clock over there. Oh I 1470 01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:39,479 Speaker 5: did notice that. But also they said during batting practice, 1471 01:08:39,560 --> 01:08:41,719 Speaker 5: hitting it to the alleys, it did not fly out. 1472 01:08:41,800 --> 01:08:45,320 Speaker 5: Some guys were just crushed the ball in BP and 1473 01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:48,000 Speaker 5: it didn't make it out. But Freddy Freeman last night 1474 01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 5: hit a home run that went way out, almost four 1475 01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:53,439 Speaker 5: hundred and fifty feet down the right field line. Freeman 1476 01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:55,799 Speaker 5: had the home run and the Dodgers beat a Korean 1477 01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:59,680 Speaker 5: pro club fourteen to three. Overnight. Jason Hayward had three 1478 01:08:59,760 --> 01:09:03,360 Speaker 5: hits for RBIs more on that about ten minutes, but 1479 01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 5: we got hopes to discuss. Is yes, it's selection Sunday 1480 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:10,200 Speaker 5: after all for the NCAA's Connecticut is the number one 1481 01:09:10,200 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 5: overall seed for the NCAA Men's Tournament. Yukon is defending 1482 01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:16,679 Speaker 5: Champ thirty one and three this season. The other one 1483 01:09:16,720 --> 01:09:21,080 Speaker 5: seeds are Houston, North Carolina and Purdue. Purdue opens up 1484 01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:24,240 Speaker 5: in Indianapolis on Friday.

Matter 1548 01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:41,559 Speaker 2: of fact that I think what's more important to me 1549 01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:44,640 Speaker 2: are the lines of Vegas. If I was only going 1550 01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 2: to look at what, I'd rather look at the lions 1551 01:12:46,320 --> 01:12:48,920 Speaker 2: than the seeds out there. Matter of fact, there's ten 1552 01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:52,719 Speaker 2: and eleven seeds that are actually the favorites in their game. 1553 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:55,839 Speaker 2: So yeah, I like going by the hot teams.

There weren't 1656 01:17:38,680 --> 01:17:41,519 Speaker 5: twenty five good teams in college basketball last year, and 1657 01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:43,760 Speaker 5: sure enough we had Florida Atlantic in the final four 1658 01:17:43,800 --> 01:17:46,480 Speaker 5: in San Diego in its first final four with the Aztecs. 1659 01:17:46,960 --> 01:17:50,400 Speaker 5: Usually I was talked about from an Aztec alum on 1660 01:17:50,439 --> 01:17:53,960 Speaker 5: the show Before You. San Diego State historically plays defense 1661 01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:56,400 Speaker 5: and defense travels, so they have a chance to advance 1662 01:17:56,400 --> 01:18:00,000 Speaker 5: in these types of things. Virginia historically has played defense. 1663 01:18:00,400 --> 01:18:03,599 Speaker 5: You know, Vermont Grand Canyon, they've played defense this year. 1664 01:18:03,600 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 5: But there are only less than ten teams in the 1665 01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:11,280 Speaker 5: field this year that have averaged actually under forty percent 1666 01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:14,040 Speaker 5: for their opponents as far as field goal percentage for 1667 01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:17,400 Speaker 5: the season, Yukon and Iowa State or two of those. 1668 01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:18,719 Speaker 2: What I wouldn't give. 1669 01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:22,040 Speaker 5: For a Connecticut Iowa State regional final in the East 1670 01:18:22,120 --> 01:18:24,799 Speaker 5: with those two teams against each other and the final 1671 01:18:24,840 --> 01:18:28,680 Speaker 5: four pea that I would love to see that Tennessee 1672 01:18:28,720 --> 01:18:33,280 Speaker 5: place defense Auburn. Certainly, Houston is number one. Their opponents 1673 01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:36,840 Speaker 5: under thirty eight percent shooting for the season against the 1674 01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:39,040 Speaker 5: Houston Corugers. I would like to see the team that 1675 01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:41,559 Speaker 5: keeps Houston out of the final four. Like I say, 1676 01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:43,840 Speaker 5: anybody can beat anybody. This year we saw it was 1677 01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:47,439 Speaker 5: housed in three comes. They did have one injury this 1678 01:18:47,479 --> 01:18:49,680 Speaker 5: weekend that was notable. I don't know if you've heard. 1679 01:18:49,720 --> 01:18:53,639 Speaker 5: Arizona's a two seed and they open on Thursday against 1680 01:18:53,720 --> 01:18:56,719 Speaker 5: Long Beach State. The late game Thursday is Washington State 1681 01:18:56,800 --> 01:18:59,719 Speaker 5: against Drake.

You mentioned that Ken Palm 1693 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:45,519 Speaker 5: ratings their top four going into the tournament are Connecticut, Houston, Purdue, 1694 01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:49,040 Speaker 5: and Auburn, not North Carolina. Even though the tar Heels 1695 01:19:49,040 --> 01:19:51,040 Speaker 5: are a one seed, they're not even in the top eight, 1696 01:19:51,160 --> 01:19:53,479 Speaker 5: much less the top four in the Ken Palm. 1697 01:19:53,640 --> 01:19:54,360 Speaker 2: They don't scare me. 1698 01:19:55,040 --> 01:19:58,640 Speaker 5: Oklahoma just missed the NCAA field today and declined at 1699 01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:02,240 Speaker 5: NIT bid As in Saint John's.

Wake Forest is a 1702 01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:12,000 Speaker 5: one seed for the nit as for the NBA. We 1703 01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:15,680 Speaker 5: had two buzzer beaters today. Kyrie Irving beat Denver with 1704 01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:18,719 Speaker 5: a left handed hook shot. I saw that over Nikola 1705 01:20:18,800 --> 01:20:21,320 Speaker 5: Jokic and it was from beyond the foul line, the 1706 01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:22,559 Speaker 5: game winner at the buzzer. 1707 01:20:22,720 --> 01:20:24,120 Speaker 2: Ridiculous.

And I have James Madison in the Sweet 1747 01:22:25,240 --> 01:22:29,040 Speaker 2: sixteen also because they'll be Wisconsin, and then they'll beat Vermont, 1748 01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:32,000 Speaker 2: who's going to beat Duke.

And they got two of their guys 1753 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:48,280 Speaker 2: back that were injured. And they're a good team. Man, 1754 01:22:48,320 --> 01:22:50,840 Speaker 2: They're very just solid teams. So I like them. 1755 01:22:51,000 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 3: Well, I don't necessarily think there's a bad team in 1756 01:22:53,520 --> 01:22:56,080 Speaker 3: this tournament, like Long Beach State's a good team. 1757 01:22:56,200 --> 01:23:00,160 Speaker 2: No, they're not going to beat us stopping, So give 1758 01:23:00,200 --> 01:23:02,160 Speaker 2: me some numbers. I'll quit my job. 1759 01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:06,679 Speaker 3: Don't say that because you took that from me, though 1760 01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:09,400 Speaker 3: you know he probably did. He said he was gonna. 1761 01:23:09,439 --> 01:23:13,240 Speaker 3: But you see, you don't say you'd retire. You say 1762 01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:17,000 Speaker 3: you'll quit your job, right, just say you'll retire sales, 1763 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:17,839 Speaker 3: step away. 1764 01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:20,920 Speaker 2: It's not gonna happen. There's no there's zero chance of 1765 01:23:20,960 --> 01:23:24,800 Speaker 2: Long Beach State able to beat Arizona or just about 1766 01:23:24,800 --> 01:23:26,160 Speaker 2: anybody else in this tournament. 1767 01:23:26,560 --> 01:23:31,559 Speaker 3: Per the NCAA, ten seven upsets are the most common. 1768 01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:32,680 Speaker 2: Do you know what? 1769 01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:35,120 Speaker 3: And it's kind of funny because it's kind of like 1770 01:23:35,160 --> 01:23:36,759 Speaker 3: a no, no, no bleed. 1771 01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 2: But that's not really an upset though, very true. 1772 01:23:39,360 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 3: Ten seven upsets, but just by seating. Listen, they're not 1773 01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:45,599 Speaker 3: liking to this by point spread by seating okay, followed 1774 01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:48,439 Speaker 3: by eleven to six eleven six upsets in twelve to 1775 01:23:48,479 --> 01:23:51,639 Speaker 3: five upsets, it's kind of like yeah, not no, no kidding. 1776 01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:57,880 Speaker 3: In total, fifty nine ten seeds have recorded first round upsets, 1777 01:23:58,280 --> 01:24:02,559 Speaker 3: which is about thirty nine per set. Eleven seeds aren't 1778 01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:07,400 Speaker 3: far behind fifty eight total first round picks it wins, 1779 01:24:07,960 --> 01:24:12,839 Speaker 3: while twelve seeds have produced fifty three first round winners. 1780 01:24:12,960 --> 01:24:17,200 Speaker 3: Now that's impressive, that's impressive. Yeah, the upsets, upsets in 1781 01:24:17,320 --> 01:24:21,320 Speaker 3: twelve five are popular. Twenty twenty three, do you know 1782 01:24:21,360 --> 01:24:23,679 Speaker 3: what happened with the twelve five in the NCAA tournament? 1783 01:24:24,800 --> 01:24:27,200 Speaker 2: Not a single twelve bea to five, not one run. 1784 01:24:27,479 --> 01:24:29,320 Speaker 2: So we kind of broke the streak there. 1785 01:24:29,880 --> 01:24:33,559 Speaker 3: Unfortunate number two seeds losing the second round to either 1786 01:24:33,600 --> 01:24:36,320 Speaker 3: a seven or ten seed. So if you got your 1787 01:24:36,360 --> 01:24:40,120 Speaker 3: two seed moving on, have him losing in the second round. 1788 01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:43,040 Speaker 3: And remember what we brought up a little bit earlier, 1789 01:24:43,160 --> 01:24:48,200 Speaker 3: kin palm. Yeah, if you're torn, kin palm Kin palm 1790 01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:52,000 Speaker 3: roy crunches the advanced data and spits out a ranking 1791 01:24:52,120 --> 01:24:58,759 Speaker 3: system then and it's what the one through twenty final 1792 01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:01,879 Speaker 3: four team has always been in the top twenty outside 1793 01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:06,200 Speaker 3: of like four times. And you know what, Arnie, I 1794 01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:09,639 Speaker 3: think I'm taking your advice. You know what I haven't 1795 01:25:09,680 --> 01:25:11,799 Speaker 3: looked at when I've been picking the bracket in the past. 1796 01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:15,240 Speaker 2: What's that spreads? Right, I don't even think about the spreads. 1797 01:25:15,439 --> 01:25:18,760 Speaker 2: Its not the spreads. It's not even a factor in 1798 01:25:18,840 --> 01:25:21,960 Speaker 2: filling it out for me. I'm gonna start looking at 1799 01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:22,479 Speaker 2: the spreads. 1800 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,600 Speaker 3: I think it's you start thinking about twelve seeds or 1801 01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:27,360 Speaker 3: thirteen seeds that can pull an up set. 1802 01:25:27,600 --> 01:25:29,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe those numbers that are seven or less. Yeah, 1803 01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:31,840 Speaker 2: I mean if you're looking at like, like I said, 1804 01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:34,960 Speaker 2: Great Canyon, they're a twelve seed, but there were five 1805 01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:36,679 Speaker 2: and a half or four and a half point underdog, 1806 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,760 Speaker 2: that's nothing. That's not even two to one odds on 1807 01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:42,160 Speaker 2: something like that. Then again you take up more edd State, 1808 01:25:42,560 --> 01:25:44,519 Speaker 2: it's I think they're like twelve and a half thirteen 1809 01:25:44,560 --> 01:25:48,280 Speaker 2: point underdogs. Now that's more of a significant underdog to 1810 01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:51,600 Speaker 2: Illinois then being like four and a half. Were you 1811 01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:53,040 Speaker 2: surprised at all. 1812 01:25:53,720 --> 01:25:57,479 Speaker 3: Whenever the four once now again Arizona choking away in 1813 01:25:57,520 --> 01:26:00,160 Speaker 3: the Big twelve are the well eventually Big twelve, but 1814 01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:03,280 Speaker 3: the Pac twelfth tournament kind of imploded it. But were 1815 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:07,400 Speaker 3: you surprised at all to see the fourth number one 1816 01:26:08,120 --> 01:26:09,080 Speaker 3: and how it played out? 1817 01:26:09,080 --> 01:26:11,519 Speaker 2: Did that shock you at all? I don't know if 1818 01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:13,479 Speaker 2: it shocked me. I thought Tennessee was still going to 1819 01:26:13,479 --> 01:26:15,120 Speaker 2: get it even though they lost in the semi finals 1820 01:26:15,120 --> 01:26:18,040 Speaker 2: of their conference because they got manhadled by Mississippi State. 1821 01:26:18,080 --> 01:26:21,200 Speaker 2: But damn, I mean, you can't have a perfect resume 1822 01:26:21,720 --> 01:26:23,599 Speaker 2: all the time, and they've had some real good wins 1823 01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:26,240 Speaker 2: during the courts of the regular season. They won you know, 1824 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:29,760 Speaker 2: their their conference, not the championship, but just they won 1825 01:26:29,760 --> 01:26:34,000 Speaker 2: their conferences. Yeah, regular season, So I thought they kind 1826 01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:38,200 Speaker 2: of got you know, dropped the poor dropped the spot 1827 01:26:38,439 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 2: because of that won and the loss to Mississippi State 1828 01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:44,000 Speaker 2: that which didn't seem really fair Missippi. 1829 01:26:43,439 --> 01:26:45,680 Speaker 3: State and not all that great, but still they're in. 1830 01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:49,720 Speaker 3: So your four run four ones. We knew Yukon the 1831 01:26:49,760 --> 01:26:51,880 Speaker 3: over I don't care who the number one, number one is, 1832 01:26:52,120 --> 01:26:55,960 Speaker 3: but Yukon was number one. Yeah overall. Houston wasn't one. 1833 01:26:57,320 --> 01:26:59,080 Speaker 3: We had Purdue as a won we knew that, and 1834 01:26:59,120 --> 01:27:01,679 Speaker 3: then North Carolina at the fourth one even though they lost. 1835 01:27:01,840 --> 01:27:03,360 Speaker 2: I said, your story, is that going to be a 1836 01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:04,959 Speaker 2: major controversy tomorrow? 1837 01:27:05,320 --> 01:27:08,040 Speaker 3: Hold on, let me see which one is that? Which story? 1838 01:27:08,200 --> 01:27:11,240 Speaker 2: The story about the team that was a sixth seed 1839 01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:12,799 Speaker 2: but really should have been a five seed? 1840 01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:16,000 Speaker 3: According to Rocco Miller, have no idea if this is 1841 01:27:16,040 --> 01:27:16,799 Speaker 3: a real person. 1842 01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:19,000 Speaker 2: I think it because I looked up on his thinking. 1843 01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:20,120 Speaker 2: He has a lot of fouolwers. 1844 01:27:20,120 --> 01:27:24,799 Speaker 3: Okay, The official seed list confirms that Byu was supposed 1845 01:27:24,840 --> 01:27:28,200 Speaker 3: to be the best five seed and move down a 1846 01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:31,680 Speaker 3: seed liede to the six to accommodate not playing on Sundays. 1847 01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:35,599 Speaker 2: That's a big drop. That's what like four that's going 1848 01:27:35,720 --> 01:27:38,160 Speaker 2: dropping down over like four teams or something like that. 1849 01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:40,040 Speaker 2: You know, I want to play on Sundays. What do 1850 01:27:40,040 --> 01:27:40,240 Speaker 2: you do? 1851 01:27:40,400 --> 01:27:40,519 Speaker 1: Well? 1852 01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:43,120 Speaker 2: Why do you have to be punished so harshly for it? Though? 1853 01:27:44,800 --> 01:27:48,240 Speaker 2: You five from a first team in the five. 1854 01:27:48,080 --> 01:27:49,920 Speaker 3: Seed to the first team in the six. 1855 01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:52,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's behind three teams that you were better than. 1856 01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:55,280 Speaker 3: Well, so are you saying they should have moved up 1857 01:27:55,280 --> 01:27:55,800 Speaker 3: to a four? 1858 01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 2: Maybe? 1859 01:27:57,439 --> 01:27:59,599 Speaker 3: What if those fours are playing on Sunday, they don't 1860 01:27:59,600 --> 01:28:00,600 Speaker 3: play on Sundays. 1861 01:28:00,960 --> 01:28:04,120 Speaker 2: They don't play on Sunday, right, I mean, Dave, what 1862 01:28:04,200 --> 01:28:06,960 Speaker 2: was every five seed playing on Sunday? I don't know. 1863 01:28:07,400 --> 01:28:07,920 Speaker 2: I think so. 1864 01:28:08,600 --> 01:28:10,960 Speaker 3: I think with the way it obviously it had to 1865 01:28:11,840 --> 01:28:14,559 Speaker 3: if they were accommodating them. I almost think I'd rather 1866 01:28:14,600 --> 01:28:17,240 Speaker 3: take some of those six to eleven matchups in the 1867 01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:20,200 Speaker 3: five twelve. To be honest with you, Yeah, but I 1868 01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:23,960 Speaker 3: mean I'm not here to complain about it. BYU has no. 1869 01:28:23,960 --> 01:28:26,720 Speaker 2: But by you fan, I'd be pretty upset about it. 1870 01:28:26,760 --> 01:28:27,400 Speaker 2: But what can you do? 1871 01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:31,000 Speaker 3: I guess you know what, as somebody who has been 1872 01:28:31,040 --> 01:28:34,000 Speaker 3: in a conference now with BYU for a year, I 1873 01:28:34,080 --> 01:28:39,680 Speaker 3: respect their's tintuitiveness on fighting against playing on Sundays. But 1874 01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:42,040 Speaker 3: are you telling me that if the Final Fours happened 1875 01:28:42,160 --> 01:28:43,880 Speaker 3: at the Final four and you make it, and I 1876 01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:46,559 Speaker 3: know the final fourth Saturday in the championship game is Monday, 1877 01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:49,120 Speaker 3: but if that Final four game is on a Sunday, 1878 01:28:49,160 --> 01:28:50,200 Speaker 3: you won't play. 1879 01:28:50,400 --> 01:28:52,679 Speaker 2: Any chance the football if they ever make the football 1880 01:28:52,680 --> 01:28:54,840 Speaker 2: playoffs of the game on No, there's no chance on 1881 01:28:54,880 --> 01:28:55,920 Speaker 2: those Sunday games. 1882 01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:59,720 Speaker 3: But yeah, that is kind of odd right that that 1883 01:28:59,840 --> 01:29:03,320 Speaker 3: you would instead of maybe as the top if they 1884 01:29:03,360 --> 01:29:06,040 Speaker 3: were the top five, right, based on the ranking that 1885 01:29:06,120 --> 01:29:09,120 Speaker 3: was out, then you'd almost think they'd bump them up 1886 01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:11,519 Speaker 3: to the last four instead of drop him down to 1887 01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:12,320 Speaker 3: the first six. 1888 01:29:13,160 --> 01:29:15,920 Speaker 2: That would make more sense, it would. I'd have to 1889 01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:19,479 Speaker 2: see what, you know, when the games were scheduled and 1890 01:29:19,520 --> 01:29:21,960 Speaker 2: all that, and where they could put it. Maybe they 1891 01:29:21,960 --> 01:29:23,840 Speaker 2: wanted to keep them close to the West. I don't know. 1892 01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:26,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and Ducaine kind of sucks, so I mean just 1893 01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:29,240 Speaker 3: putting there, They're putting him with a very lowly ranked 1894 01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:32,720 Speaker 3: eleven seed. I think the committee did a pretty good job. 1895 01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:35,120 Speaker 3: Am I a little bit bent that my Sooners aren't 1896 01:29:35,120 --> 01:29:35,439 Speaker 3: in there? 1897 01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:37,960 Speaker 2: Sure? I wasn't be more upset about if that happened 1898 01:29:38,000 --> 01:29:44,000 Speaker 2: to my Arizona Wildcats, I'd be beside myself. Well, I'm 1899 01:29:44,040 --> 01:29:45,200 Speaker 2: just a bigger fan, you know. 1900 01:29:45,479 --> 01:29:48,160 Speaker 3: Well, no, I'm a little bit more base in reality, 1901 01:29:48,360 --> 01:29:50,120 Speaker 3: is the way I like to look at it. They 1902 01:29:50,160 --> 01:29:53,360 Speaker 3: went three and seven in their last ten. They lost 1903 01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:55,800 Speaker 3: to TCU in the first round of of the Big 1904 01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:56,519 Speaker 3: twelve tournament. 1905 01:29:56,520 --> 01:29:58,920 Speaker 2: But everything guys saw that had you the last team 1906 01:29:58,960 --> 01:30:00,080 Speaker 2: in the tournament. 1907 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:02,920 Speaker 3: Should have been should have been but I guess Virginia 1908 01:30:03,120 --> 01:30:06,200 Speaker 3: was more impressive with all their Quad three, Quad four losses. 1909 01:30:07,200 --> 01:30:10,320 Speaker 3: Team well, and they're boring as hell, So I mean, 1910 01:30:10,439 --> 01:30:13,840 Speaker 3: what are we even doing right now? I honestly in 1911 01:30:13,920 --> 01:30:16,479 Speaker 3: our bracket Challenge, which is online right now in Fox 1912 01:30:16,479 --> 01:30:19,559 Speaker 3: Sports Radio dot Com, if Oklahoma had made it, I 1913 01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:21,240 Speaker 3: was gonna push him to the final four just to 1914 01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:24,479 Speaker 3: be obnoxious. I was going to be so obnoxious because 1915 01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:27,400 Speaker 3: Javian mccaull would get healthy and then I was just 1916 01:30:27,439 --> 01:30:29,040 Speaker 3: gonna be unbearable. 1917 01:30:29,080 --> 01:30:30,960 Speaker 2: But they didn't make it, so I can't do that. 1918 01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:32,200 Speaker 2: Have you done yours yet?

Yeah, you got your bid Steelers. 2162 01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:45,760 Speaker 2: That's a good that's a really good story. I think 2163 01:41:45,760 --> 01:41:46,719 Speaker 2: the mcneed's story. 2164 01:41:46,560 --> 01:41:50,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I do too, Oregon. Right, that's a team that 2165 01:41:50,520 --> 01:41:53,439 Speaker 3: wasn't in until they won their tournament. North Carolina State, 2166 01:41:53,560 --> 01:41:55,839 Speaker 3: that's a team that wasn't in until they won their tournament. 2167 01:41:56,040 --> 01:41:57,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but we have that a lot every year, when 2168 01:41:58,080 --> 01:42:00,639 Speaker 2: I don't think we have it to this degree, Reah, 2169 01:42:01,200 --> 01:42:05,479 Speaker 2: this is I mean, you look at all the bracketologists. 2170 01:42:05,920 --> 01:42:08,680 Speaker 3: Their jaw dropped by the amount of big Steelers we have. 2171 01:42:08,720 --> 01:42:09,679 Speaker 3: Do we have it every year? 2172 01:42:10,040 --> 01:42:12,599 Speaker 2: You bet? But not when it's five deep. I think 2173 01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:15,000 Speaker 2: there's a five or six deep and usually it's only 2174 01:42:15,080 --> 01:42:15,840 Speaker 2: like three or something. 2175 01:42:15,920 --> 01:42:18,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, let's see, there was one more than I saw 2176 01:42:19,439 --> 01:42:21,200 Speaker 3: a good story. I don't know if there's I don't 2177 01:42:21,240 --> 01:42:24,840 Speaker 3: know much about them. Washington State kind of cool last 2178 01:42:24,920 --> 01:42:26,720 Speaker 3: year of the PAC twelve, last year of them in 2179 01:42:26,720 --> 01:42:30,920 Speaker 3: a power league, and suddenly they're good at basketball. So yeah, sure, 2180 01:42:30,960 --> 01:42:33,080 Speaker 3: I mean I think there's a lot of really cool stories. 2181 01:42:33,400 --> 01:42:36,920 Speaker 3: But because there's not, I mean, the number one pick 2182 01:42:36,960 --> 01:42:39,760 Speaker 3: in the draft isn't in this NCAA tournament right now. 2183 01:42:40,439 --> 01:42:42,880 Speaker 3: You know, there's not a I don't know about you, 2184 01:42:42,960 --> 01:42:47,719 Speaker 3: but the most talked about NBA draft guy is Bronnie James, 2185 01:42:47,760 --> 01:42:51,880 Speaker 3: And I mean we yeah, like who knows, But I 2186 01:42:51,880 --> 01:42:53,800 Speaker 3: I don't know. It's a great question. There's a lot 2187 01:42:53,800 --> 01:42:55,840 Speaker 3: of really cool stories, just none of them seem to 2188 01:42:56,200 --> 01:42:57,600 Speaker 3: center around the players. 2189 01:42:57,840 --> 01:43:01,400 Speaker 2: I would like to make a crazy bet that Arizona 2190 01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:05,200 Speaker 2: knocks out Yukon in both the women's and the men's 2191 01:43:05,240 --> 01:43:09,960 Speaker 2: Tour tournament. I would take the men's side much more 2192 01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:12,559 Speaker 2: than the women's side. Yeah, but I think it may happen. 2193 01:43:12,600 --> 01:43:15,000 Speaker 2: But the women's side they may not get to that game. 2194 01:43:15,080 --> 01:43:17,599 Speaker 2: That's the problem. Well, then why would you make the bet. Well, 2195 01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:20,320 Speaker 2: I'm trying to get good odds. That's why you gotta 2196 01:43:20,360 --> 01:43:23,519 Speaker 2: think ahead. Christian gotta big. I want to win. 2197 01:43:24,400 --> 01:43:26,600 Speaker 3: Do you just bet when you go horse racing? Do 2198 01:43:26,640 --> 01:43:28,360 Speaker 3: you just bet on the ninety nine to one shot? 2199 01:43:28,439 --> 01:43:30,799 Speaker 2: Now? Are you still mad at me about what happened 2200 01:43:30,800 --> 01:43:31,559 Speaker 2: three weeks ago? 2201 01:43:32,800 --> 01:43:34,200 Speaker 3: I don't know what happened three weeks ago. 2202 01:43:34,320 --> 01:43:36,400 Speaker 2: When you were saying you were at the Vegas airport 2203 01:43:36,479 --> 01:43:38,599 Speaker 2: and you were gonna play the slots, I go, don't 2204 01:43:38,640 --> 01:43:42,000 Speaker 2: play the slots at the airport. Then then they never win. 2205 01:43:42,400 --> 01:43:44,760 Speaker 2: And some guy won on that day eight hundred and 2206 01:43:44,800 --> 01:43:45,639 Speaker 2: seventy thousand. 2207 01:43:45,920 --> 01:43:48,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, but thankfully two things. Number one definitely would have 2208 01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:50,800 Speaker 3: been the machine you were playing will right. I don't 2209 01:43:50,800 --> 01:43:53,680 Speaker 3: play slots, so that wouldn't have been me. And the 2210 01:43:53,800 --> 01:43:57,880 Speaker 3: number number two. I have a horrible luck when it 2211 01:43:57,920 --> 01:44:00,400 Speaker 3: comes to gambling on machine, so it would not been me. 2212 01:44:00,760 --> 01:44:03,639 Speaker 3: Chris points out there's a twelfth seed that's favored already. 2213 01:44:03,760 --> 01:44:05,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's a good point. 2214 01:44:05,960 --> 01:44:08,759 Speaker 3: The five twelve upsets are they even really upsets anymore? 2215 01:44:09,560 --> 01:44:12,280 Speaker 2: Which the twelve seed is favorite?

Now, taking a look 2469 01:56:54,760 --> 01:57:01,080 Speaker 2: at my upsets. In the South, I have James Madison Wisconsin, 2470 01:57:01,600 --> 01:57:04,760 Speaker 2: and I got Vermont getting by Duke, and then I 2471 01:57:04,840 --> 01:57:08,560 Speaker 2: actually got James Madison beating Vermont. So James Madison getting 2472 01:57:08,560 --> 01:57:11,800 Speaker 2: to the Sweet six team, that's the only upsets I 2473 01:57:11,840 --> 01:57:14,640 Speaker 2: have in the South. In the Midwest, I got two 2474 01:57:14,720 --> 01:57:21,040 Speaker 2: also Mcnee's over Gonzaga, and I have Samford over Kansas 2475 01:57:21,440 --> 01:57:24,440 Speaker 2: and then Mcnee's beating Samford. Kind of like the same 2476 01:57:24,520 --> 01:57:27,840 Speaker 2: situation in the South. So mcnee's state is going to 2477 01:57:27,880 --> 01:57:30,800 Speaker 2: go to the Sweet six team. Three upsets in the 2478 01:57:30,840 --> 01:57:33,680 Speaker 2: other group, I have two. In the East, UA be 2479 01:57:33,800 --> 01:57:36,080 Speaker 2: over San Diego State, so that's going to be a 2480 01:57:36,120 --> 01:57:38,480 Speaker 2: tough one. I'm kind of regretting that a little bit. 2481 01:57:38,760 --> 01:57:41,760 Speaker 2: And I got Moriage State over Illinois Morehead State like 2482 01:57:41,800 --> 01:57:44,120 Speaker 2: a twelve and a half point underdog, thirty point underdog 2483 01:57:44,120 --> 01:57:45,920 Speaker 2: in that one, So I'm a little bit nervous of 2484 01:57:45,960 --> 01:57:46,240 Speaker 2: that one. 2485 01:57:46,320 --> 01:57:49,120 Speaker 3: Chris, don't blame you, don't blame you at all. 2486 01:57:49,240 --> 01:57:50,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, we'll see how that one turns out. And 2487 01:57:50,800 --> 01:57:55,560 Speaker 2: I got Grand Canyon beating Saint Mary's and then Grand 2488 01:57:55,680 --> 01:58:01,200 Speaker 2: Canyon beating Alabama before Grand Canyon lou to North Carolina. 2489 01:58:02,000 --> 01:58:09,600 Speaker 2: My Elite eight is Connecticut, Iowa State, North Carolina, Arizona, Houston, 2490 01:58:09,760 --> 01:58:14,920 Speaker 2: and Kentucky Perdue in Tennessee. That means my final four 2491 01:58:15,000 --> 01:58:20,720 Speaker 2: is Kentucky and Tennessee, Arizona and Connecticut. Arizona beats Connecticut, 2492 01:58:21,240 --> 01:58:27,040 Speaker 2: Tennessee beats Kentucky, and Arizona beats Tennessee to get the 2493 01:58:27,120 --> 01:58:31,000 Speaker 2: revenge on Tennessee and win the championship, and I get 2494 01:58:31,080 --> 01:58:34,840 Speaker 2: my revenge on the entire world. So there you have 2495 01:58:34,920 --> 01:58:37,160 Speaker 2: my picks. To do with them as you please. No 2496 01:58:37,280 --> 01:58:41,080 Speaker 2: longer strictly for entertainment purposes only, Chris, all right. 2497 01:58:41,600 --> 01:58:44,600 Speaker 3: You can also find that bracket at Foxsports Radio dot 2498 01:58:44,640 --> 01:58:49,080 Speaker 3: com or on Arnie's Twitter feed. Well, it's where it's sideways, 2499 01:58:49,320 --> 01:58:52,280 Speaker 3: so you have to save the picture and then rotate it. 2500 01:58:53,040 --> 01:58:55,160 Speaker 2: Or you can just turn your phone around, No, because 2501 01:58:55,200 --> 01:58:56,960 Speaker 2: then it'll keep turning on you. Oh is that what 2502 01:58:57,000 --> 01:58:58,000 Speaker 2: will happen? Yeah? 2503 01:58:58,040 --> 01:59:00,200 Speaker 3: Don't you know how to take a picture the right way? 2504 01:59:00,760 --> 01:59:03,120 Speaker 2: Yeah? But I figure that that way is better because 2505 01:59:03,120 --> 01:59:05,920 Speaker 2: it's you know, everybody looks at it that way. 2506 01:59:06,320 --> 01:59:11,880 Speaker 3: I appreciate the effort. So what what are you putting 2507 01:59:11,920 --> 01:59:14,480 Speaker 3: on the line here, Arnie? Are you risking your job again? 2508 01:59:14,760 --> 01:59:19,360 Speaker 3: If Arizona fails you? Are you that confident? 2509 01:59:19,760 --> 01:59:22,440 Speaker 2: I'm so confident they'll beat Long Beach that me you, 2510 01:59:22,640 --> 01:59:27,520 Speaker 2: the Sega, Patrick and Mary will all quit well quit 2511 01:59:27,720 --> 01:59:28,400 Speaker 2: if they don't win. 2512 01:59:29,320 --> 01:59:32,320 Speaker 3: I I mean, I appreciate you trying to drag us 2513 01:59:32,320 --> 01:59:35,360 Speaker 3: in on this, but thank you. Long Beach State has 2514 01:59:35,400 --> 01:59:39,000 Speaker 3: like this. They got a little something. 2515 01:59:38,160 --> 01:59:41,520 Speaker 2: Fine to start out the season. Trust the guy's named 2516 01:59:41,520 --> 01:59:46,320 Speaker 2: Don Monson. Dan Monson close though. Well. 2517 01:59:46,840 --> 01:59:49,640 Speaker 3: The good news is he got a very winnable game 2518 01:59:49,680 --> 01:59:51,320 Speaker 3: in the second round. The bad news is, I think 2519 01:59:51,400 --> 01:59:53,920 Speaker 3: Dayton could beat you in the second. 2520 01:59:53,520 --> 01:59:56,760 Speaker 2: He's not even gonna go beat Nevada. You don't think so? Nope, 2521 01:59:56,800 --> 01:59:59,840 Speaker 2: got Nevada winning that game, then Arizona beating Nevada, then 2522 02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:04,040 Speaker 2: Arizona beating New Mexico and then Arizona beating North Carol 2523 02:00:04,200 --> 02:00:04,800 Speaker 2: New Mexico. 2524 02:00:04,880 --> 02:00:06,920 Speaker 3: So you got Richard Patino moving on to the old 2525 02:00:06,920 --> 02:00:07,600 Speaker 3: sweet sixtcess. 2526 02:00:07,680 --> 02:00:09,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. I like New Mexico. Kind of a little bit 2527 02:00:09,600 --> 02:00:11,680 Speaker 2: of my sleeper team out there because there are a 2528 02:00:11,720 --> 02:00:16,560 Speaker 2: number eleven seed. But as the Texter said their favorite 2529 02:00:16,560 --> 02:00:18,880 Speaker 2: over Clemson, the Baylor game is going to be the 2530 02:00:18,880 --> 02:00:20,840 Speaker 2: big game for them, next the game after that. 2531 02:00:21,000 --> 02:00:22,960 Speaker 3: It's good team. It's a good Baylor team. Good year 2532 02:00:23,000 --> 02:00:24,480 Speaker 3: for the Big twelve. We'll see if they can follow 2533 02:00:24,480 --> 02:00:26,480 Speaker 3: it up in the Big Dance.
