00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,080
Speaker 1: Hello, everybody, Welcome into the Betting Tros Podcast. I'm Ryan Warmley,

2
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 1: joined today by my good friend PJ Glasser of bet QL.

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 2: PJ, how you doing, Buddy?

4
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 3: Doing good? Worm, Great to be here with you. Man.

5
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 3: Sweet sixteen time. What a round of sixty four thirty

6
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,120
Speaker 3: two that we had. I know, it's a little chalky.

7
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 3: I think it's only a fifth time ever that all

8
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,599
Speaker 3: one in two seeds made it. And I know everybody

9
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 3: wants offsets, they want some of the double digit seeds

10
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 3: to advance. But Worm, these Sweet sixteen matchups that we have, Man,

11
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 3: there are a lot of really really good ones. So

12
00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to breaking it down.

13
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say in you know, kind of

14
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: putting it together, the rundown that you know, I was

15
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,959
Speaker 1: putting the seed numbers next to every team, and it's

16
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: a it's all ones. It's twos, four or five. There's

17
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,839
Speaker 1: not any double digit seeds outside of NC State. And

18
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 1: not only are there not any double digit seeds, there's

19
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: no eights, there's no nines, there's no sevens. It's all

20
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: five and under plus NC State. So it's a lot

21
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: of really highly ranked teams that should make for a

22
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: fun time. How did the opening weekend treat your wallet?

23
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: Well, it depends on what day you ask me. Thursday

24
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 3: was pretty good, Friday was excellent, Saturday was not good,

25
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 3: and Sunday was not very good either. Friday was unbelievable.

26
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 3: It was one of those days where like, I don't

27
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 3: think I got a bet wrong until Saint Mary's to

28
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 3: end the night. Saturday. I'm usually a pretty heavy underdog

29
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 3: type better because I usually like to fade the public

30
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 3: and as we all know, a lot of times, favorites

31
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,760
Speaker 3: are usually where the public ends up going. So did

32
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 3: not have a good day Saturday. Sunday. I had a

33
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 3: pretty good day in the early session. I had Colorado,

34
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 3: I had Clemson, and then I just absolutely got destroyed

35
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: on Grand Canyon. So you know, we had our good days,

36
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 3: we had our bad, but overall, I would say, for

37
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 3: the most part, probably pushed even.

38
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: I wonder how many people sort of had a similar,

39
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,480
Speaker 1: you know, role coaster of the weekend because I was

40
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: the same boat as you. I was doing very well Thursday, Friday,

41
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: and then Saturday was like kind of a step down

42
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: and the Sunday was a big step down. And to

43
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 1: a degree it probably is because it was so many

44
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 1: of these favorites, you know, not just moving on but

45
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 1: moving on comfortably in you know handful of cases that

46
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: it's those aren't the fun bets that people want to

47
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 1: be making, you know, especially in the early rounds of

48
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: March Madness. So I wonder if if a lot of

49
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 1: folks were kind of in a similar boat. And this

50
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,160
Speaker 1: the reason I asked you is because I was curious

51
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: if you had kind of seen the same pattern play

52
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,679
Speaker 1: out play out that I did. Did you have sort

53
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: of like a biggest takeaway from the opening weekend? You know,

54
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: was there was there an outcome that that you thought

55
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: was most relevant to the rest of the tournament or

56
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: more surprising? What was kind of stepping back thirty thousand

57
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: foot view, what was your biggest takeaway from the first

58
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: four days.

59
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd say the biggest takeaway is probably just the

60
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 3: acc how impressive they have been, right, I mean eight

61
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 3: and one so far this tournament. Their only loss was Virginia.

62
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 3: I know, Caroline is a one seed, so they got

63
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 3: a sixteen in the first round, but being down double

64
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 3: digits to Michigan State and then worm coming back to

65
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 3: take the lead at halftime, Like it's not even like

66
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 3: they came back in the second half, they erased that

67
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 3: right away. Duke after James Madison from the start, looked

68
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 3: like the better team against Wisconsin. For Duke to just

69
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 3: destroy them from tip to finish was extremely impressive. Clemson

70
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 3: being underdogs in both of their two games, winning those outright,

71
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 3: and then NC State obviously upsetting Texas Tech in the

72
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 3: first round and then facing Oakland, it was just on

73
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 3: that magical carpet ride and winning one of those games

74
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 3: that it just had the feel like they weren't gonna win.

75
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 3: Oakland was doing the same stuff that they were doing

76
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 3: against Kentucky, where every time it looked Kentucky would maybe

77
00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 3: pull away, Oakland would hit a shot to keep it close.

78
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 3: They did the same thing. The fact that NC State

79
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 3: was able to win that game, obviously, that's their seventh

80
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 3: eighth game in twelve days. It went to overtime. It's

81
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 3: just it's pretty incredible for obviously the acc AT for

82
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 3: so long being the conference in the sport, and now

83
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 3: this last five ten years has kind of declined a

84
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 3: little bit. They're certainly making a statement so far putting

85
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 3: a four teams in the Sweet sixteen.

86
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 2: A p lease tell me.

87
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: You're not one of these people who's like, oh, maybe

88
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,239
Speaker 1: we were wrong about the conference being down just because

89
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 1: they won a couple of games. As a tournament, we

90
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 1: could agree it was. It's been an impressive tournament for them,

91
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: But I hate the like retroactive like, oh boy, I

92
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,360
Speaker 1: guess we were really wrong about that conference all year

93
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:33,480
Speaker 1: and we had this huge sample size as opposed to

94
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,719
Speaker 1: like six games on one random weekend.

95
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

96
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 3: I mean it's all matchups, right, Like the matchups that

97
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 3: some of these teams getting are favorable to others. And

98
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 3: it's like a lot of these teams too, you know,

99
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 3: the SEC and the Big twelve, Like they do have

100
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 3: their top teams or whatever, like their Iowa States, they

101
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 3: have their Houston's, they have their Tennessees, their Kentucky's, but

102
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 3: a lot of those other teams are five, seven, nine seeds, right,

103
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 3: So it's like they're playing coin flip games. So while

104
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 3: I agree with you, I think you know, kind of

105
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 3: making this statement of like, oh, now the ACC is

106
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 3: the best conference in the sport. It's like they're having

107
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,560
Speaker 3: a great tournament. Maybe they're better than we thought they were,

108
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 3: But I wouldn't, you know, go as far as to say,

109
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 3: like they're the best conference.

110
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,719
Speaker 1: Now, I'm pretty sure on our previews show a week

111
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 1: ago when the bracket was revealed, that you said NC

112
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: State was your favorite double digit seed bet to make

113
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 1: the Sweet sixteen. It turns out they were the only

114
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: one to do it, So kudas to you on that one.

115
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,600
Speaker 1: They now, I mean after five games and five days

116
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 1: in the ACC tournament and now you know, kind of

117
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 1: a Cinderella run here in the NCAA tournament. Now they

118
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: finally have a chance to catch their breath here for

119
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: a few days before before getting into their Sweet sixteen game.

120
00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about those ones in two seeds.

121
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: You know you mentioned it's actually pretty rare occurrence that

122
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: they all make it to the sweet sixteen setting aside

123
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 1: a Yukon, because they were the favorite going in and

124
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: unsurprisingly have looked very very good. Was of the other

125
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: seven ones in two seeds, was there one that sit

126
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 1: out to you as you know that they're looking really

127
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 1: maybe even better as a bet than I hadn't anticipated,

128
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: or one of them that you know, they got through

129
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 1: but maybe looked a little iffier than you had thought

130
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:12,119
Speaker 1: they would.

131
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll start with Purdue Worm. We all kind of

132
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 3: know the stigma around Purdue, right and Matt Painter has

133
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,719
Speaker 3: only been one Elite eight, He's never been to the

134
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 3: Final four. We usually don't see perdue role in tournament

135
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 3: games like they did against Utah State. So for regular

136
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,919
Speaker 3: season Perdue to show up in a tournament game against

137
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 3: a solid Utah State team, I thought that was that

138
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 3: was pretty impressive. And now you look against Gonzaga, they're

139
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 3: five and a half point favorites. Think that line's going

140
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 3: to be high to a lot of people, but I

141
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 3: think that line is pretty right on the money. So

142
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 3: just seeing Purdue finally just handle an opponent that they

143
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 3: should be because they were fair by eleven and a half

144
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 3: in that game, they were expected to win by double digits.

145
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,679
Speaker 3: For them to win convincingly by forty, I thought was

146
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 3: really impressive. And then I'd say the team that I

147
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,359
Speaker 3: was a little disappointed in would be Tennessee. I just

148
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 3: thought for so much of the year Worm that this

149
00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 3: year would be a little bit different. It felt like

150
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:12,120
Speaker 3: connect was it finally a bonafide score that Rick Barnes

151
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 3: had really never had at the guard position. We know

152
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 3: the defense is going to be there, but for so

153
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 3: much of the year Tennessee was scoring in the eighties

154
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 3: or nineties, and now we get to the tournament. They

155
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 3: lose to Mississippi State in the sec quarters. They played

156
00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 3: Texas in the round of thirty two. It's like a

157
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 3: sixty two fifty eight game and you're like, I mean,

158
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 3: here we go again. It just looks like the same

159
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 3: old Tennessee. So both those teams are in the same region.

160
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 3: Impressed with Purdue and then disappointed with Tennessee.

161
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna mention in that region, you have

162
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: Matt Painter, you have you Rick Bards, you have Creighton

163
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: who has not had you know, a lot of success

164
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,680
Speaker 1: in the tournament, all advancing through. So a really interesting

165
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: region to see, you know, unless it's Gonzaga, who obviously

166
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: hasn't gotten over the hump later on in the tournament.

167
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: Unless it's Gonzaga, it will be somebody. We talked about

168
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: it in the preview that there will be an opportunity

169
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: for these teams to finally break through. It will be

170
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,120
Speaker 1: one of them, unless it's Gonzaga. So that's a really

171
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: interesting region before we jump into the bets, you know,

172
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: in the sweet sixteen. Just one last question is there

173
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 1: a region that you're most excited to watch to see

174
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 1: how it plays out here, you know, in terms of

175
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: next weekend, is is it Yukon's region?

176
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 2: Is it Produce?

177
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 1: Is there one that you're like, I'm really excited about

178
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: the three games we're gonna get in this region?

179
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 3: Ah? Man, it's a good question. I would probably say

180
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 3: I'm excited for that West Regional just because I can't

181
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 3: wait to see the offense in Bama Carolina. I'm excited

182
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 3: to see Arizona against Clemson. But then the potential of

183
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,439
Speaker 3: a Caleb Love game in Arizona and UNC. I think

184
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 3: we were talking about that on the last podcast. Like

185
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 3: the fact that we're two games away and Arizona and

186
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 3: UNC went away from that happening I think is pretty

187
00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 3: cool from those two teams. I mean again, more like

188
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 3: we were talking about from the top, like, because this

189
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 3: tournament is so chalky in terms of seeds and there's

190
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: so many ones and twos and threes, It's like you

191
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 3: could make a case for any of these regions. But

192
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 3: for me, I think the storyline I would say just

193
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,319
Speaker 3: Caleb Love being one of the best players in the country,

194
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 3: going from a school like Carolina to Arizona and the

195
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 3: fact that he could match up with his former school

196
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,480
Speaker 3: in the Elite eight. I think that Carolina Bama game

197
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 3: is going to be awesome. I think Clemson Arizona is

198
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 3: going to be really good too. So I'm excited for

199
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 3: that region and see who comes out of it.

200
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 1: I am really really fascinated to see Iowa State versus Illinois,

201
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,560
Speaker 1: you know, number one defense in Ken Pom versus number

202
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 1: one offense in ken Pom. Just the stylistic contrast is

203
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,439
Speaker 1: going to be really fascinating. But to your point, you

204
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: could really pick almost any of these matchups and regions

205
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: and say there are some there are a lot of

206
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 1: really fun regional final possibilities, you know, for the Elite

207
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: eight kind of anyway you slice it.

208
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 2: I'm really surprised.

209
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: I was probably the biggest surprise for me in the

210
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 1: City sixteen is Clemson. I was very, you know much

211
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 1: a believer in the you know, very popular upset pick

212
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: to the point that they were actually the favorites in

213
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: New Mexico over Clemson. So the fact that Clemson is

214
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: now you know, upset two teams, that's been a real

215
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: surprise to me. But you know, you know, most of

216
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: these matchups, Like if you had asked me at the

217
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 1: start of the tournament, not what I predict would happened,

218
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: but what would I want to happen?

219
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: What would I want the Sweet sixteen to look like?

220
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 1: I think like thirteen or fourteen of the teams that

221
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:27,839
Speaker 1: I would have said i'd like to see in there

222
00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 1: actually got there.

223
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,439
Speaker 2: And and there was some you.

224
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: Know, tweeting and stuff going on on social media about well,

225
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: maybe it's a little less madness than there usually is

226
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: in that opening weekend, but when you have you know,

227
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: fewer these crazy wild upsets.

228
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 2: We've been saying it this whole time, it sets.

229
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: Up for a super super fun Sweet sixteen and that

230
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: second weekend of the tournament, which which is is it's

231
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: not as fun as those first couple of days, but

232
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: it's it's sometimes a lot more compelling when you get

233
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: into this round. So let's dive into how we're going

234
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,839
Speaker 1: to be betting Sweet sixteen. We're going to go through

235
00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,360
Speaker 1: region by region here and just hit on every matchup.

236
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: So we'll just start right at the top with Yukon. Obviously,

237
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: have your favorites going in. Nothing that we've seen that

238
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: would make us, you know, kind of go against that.

239
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 1: We have the rematch from last year. Here are Yukon

240
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: San Diego State. So how are you betting this one?

241
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 3: I mean, for me, I think the bet in the

242
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 3: game would be the San Diego State team total under.

243
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 3: I think when we preview a lot of these game

244
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 3: where these games were and we're going to talk about

245
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 3: how the spread is correlated to the total in some

246
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 3: of these games, I think if you like the Aztecs here,

247
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 3: you gotta like the under. Like Yukon has shown the

248
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 3: ability to win games in the nineties and win games

249
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 3: in the fifties or sixties, San Diego State is not

250
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,120
Speaker 3: like they're not gonna be able to beat Yukon in

251
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 3: the eighties or nineties. It's funny they find themselves in

252
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 3: the same exact spot that they did last season where

253
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 3: they were in the Sweet sixteen against the number one

254
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 3: overall seed in the tournament, when they played Bama, great

255
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 3: offensive team, great defensive team, and they forced them to

256
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 3: three for twenty eight from three point. Now, Yukon's not

257
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 3: gonna shoot that many threes. But the idea is for

258
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,200
Speaker 3: San Diego State to pull off another upset, they're gonna

259
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 3: need Yukon to just have one of their worst shooting

260
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 3: games of the entire year, which that's what San Diego

261
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 3: State is built to do. The problem is, where is

262
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 3: the offense gonna come Their best player and one of

263
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 3: the best big men in all the country is Jaden

264
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 3: de Lee, but he's going up against maybe the best

265
00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:25,080
Speaker 3: big man in the country and Donovan Klingen, So it's

266
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 3: just a terrible matchup. Right. SDSU had Matt Bradley last year,

267
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 3: who was a big part of why they went to

268
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 3: the title game. They don't have him, So just like,

269
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 3: where is the offense coming from? I mean, you saw

270
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 3: it with Northwestern yesterday, especially in the first half. I

271
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 3: think that, honestly might be the best play is if

272
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,839
Speaker 3: you can find a San Diego State team total under

273
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 3: in the first half, because Yukon might be up twenty

274
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 3: five thirty in this game and then San Diego States

275
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 3: kind of score some garbage points and they go over

276
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 3: their team total. So I like the full team total

277
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 3: under for the game, But if you can find a

278
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 3: number for the first half, when you obviously gonna be

279
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,719
Speaker 3: fully into it, they're gonna make life really tough for

280
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 3: the Aztecs. I Uh, when I look at that matchup.

281
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:07,080
Speaker 3: That's my favorite play.

282
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: Do you have any interest in you know, the spreads

283
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: eleven points on DraftKings, totals one thirty six for the game,

284
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 1: any interest in those at all? Or you're just primarily

285
00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: looking at the San Diego state line.

286
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 3: You know what's funny, worm in these last two tournaments

287
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,199
Speaker 3: where Yukon's going eight to zero against the spread, I

288
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 3: don't think I bet them like a single time, right

289
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:29,120
Speaker 3: because they've been like favorites in all these games, and

290
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 3: these numbers are getting so big, and it's like can

291
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 3: they keep winning all these games by double digits? And

292
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 3: they continue to do it, So you know what, maybe

293
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 3: I will lay the ten and a half with them

294
00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:39,880
Speaker 3: just to see if they can win.

295
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: If they can would But you know what's gonna happen

296
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,719
Speaker 1: is as soon as you finally do that, that's when

297
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: the streak's gonna end.

298
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 2: You know, That's how it works.

299
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 3: That's how it works. I can never bet in Iowa

300
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 3: football under because I know as soon as I do, right,

301
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 3: it's just like twenty five and a half, and as

302
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,319
Speaker 3: soon as I do, it goes over. But yeah, I mean,

303
00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 3: if I had to play, it could only be you.

304
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 3: I mean, San Diego State's not gonna win the game,

305
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 3: and in March madness, it's tough for me to bet

306
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 3: dogs when I just don't think they're gonna win a game,

307
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 3: because you're just basically hoping that the Aztecs can kind

308
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 3: of win on a back door cover, and I just

309
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 3: I don't think that's a good way to invest your money.

310
00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 3: I think those team total unders, like we said, are good.

311
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 3: Or if I had to make a play, it would

312
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 3: be you Colm with the points.

313
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 2: Let's go to the next matchup here. I mentioned it earlier.

314
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: Iowa State number one defense in Ken Pom, Illinois number

315
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: one offense in ken Pom. They're both, you know, top

316
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: ten teams overall at ken Pom. Obviously, Illinois their defense

317
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: is a lot lower, their ninety second in ken Pom.

318
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: Iowa State's offense forty ninth. Just to give all the

319
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: numbers there again, stylistic contrast in terms of like strength

320
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: on strength, I saw, I forget who it was. There

321
00:14:49,880 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: was some other podcasts I was listening to. The guy

322
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 1: was saying, can.

323
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: We just like reset every possession?

324
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: And if Iowa State stops Illinois, they get two points.

325
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,800
Speaker 1: But just only see this offense versus defense for the

326
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: whole game, which would be really intriguing. You know, the

327
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 1: line is something like two to two and a half. Uh,

328
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: totals one forty six and a half. What do you

329
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: make of this one? Again, I can't I can't say

330
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: it enough that it's it's just so fun to see,

331
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: you know, the unstoppable force against the immovable object.

332
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 2: I'm really giddy about this matchup.

333
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 3: Oh no, no question. And again I was talking about

334
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 3: there are gonna be some of these games where you

335
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 3: correlate the spread with the total wor this is the game, like,

336
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 3: this is the dream matchup. If you like Illinois, you

337
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 3: like the over. If you like Iowa State, you like

338
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 3: the under. Like there's just it's the perfect game. Like

339
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 3: if you like Iowa State to win, don't bet them

340
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 3: to win, bet them to win and bet the under

341
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 3: or vet Illinois, vice versa. Have a lot of people.

342
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 3: I have a feeling that a lot of people are

343
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 3: gonna like Illinois in this game just because more people

344
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 3: are gonna lean towards the offensive team. That's more fun,

345
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:54,880
Speaker 3: it's more sexy. It's just you know the way that

346
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 3: we're kind of wired. But this time of year, when

347
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 3: we get later into the tournament, I'm going to always

348
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,040
Speaker 3: lean towards the defensive team. So if I had to

349
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,560
Speaker 3: pick the game, I would take Iowa State. It's not

350
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 3: one of my favorites on the board, but like I said,

351
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 3: if there are people listening and they have a strong feeling,

352
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 3: man take take the over. If you're with the Aliini

353
00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,160
Speaker 3: or the under if you're with the Cyclones.

354
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 2: I'm actually with you on Iowa State.

355
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 1: I don't know that I'm gonna, you know, put too

356
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 1: much on the game because I really just want to

357
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: kind of sit back and watch and see how it

358
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: plays out. But but you know, if I was refilling

359
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 1: out a bracket here, which I'll kind of ask us

360
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: to do for the purposes of the show, I'm taking

361
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: Iowa State, and obviously we're both taking Yukon, so just

362
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 1: to fill out this region. Or you would you say

363
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,680
Speaker 1: Yukon Iowa State and then Yukon over Iowa State. Would

364
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: that be how you would forecast it. I know we

365
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,040
Speaker 1: talked a lot about, you know, Yukon Auburn as it

366
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 1: being a really potential fun game.

367
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 2: Obviously we didn't get that.

368
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: I was I was convinced by you on last week's

369
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 1: show to even sprinkle sprinkle in Auburn in some brackets

370
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: over Yukon, So that one hurt me. Thank you for that.

371
00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: But but Yukon over Iowa State? Is is that how

372
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: we're kind of resetting this region?

373
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:06,160
Speaker 3: Oh? You and me both? Worm you and mean both? Yeah.

374
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 3: I would say Yukon's definitely gonna win. I think they're

375
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 3: gonna win regardless of who they play. I think if

376
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 3: you're a Yukon fan, you would rather see Iowa State.

377
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 3: I think a team that's gonna be Yukon worm is

378
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,880
Speaker 3: a team that can score, so Illinois to me would

379
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 3: be would be the tougher matchup. I do think it's

380
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,360
Speaker 3: gonna end up being Iowa State, though, and I think

381
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:25,199
Speaker 3: Yukon gets to win.

382
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: Let's go to the next region here, Houston versus Duke.

383
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,760
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people were, you know, pulling

384
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 1: for JMU. Didn't happen Houston obviously, you know, squeaking into

385
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: the sweet sixteen. They were, Unless I'm forgetting a game,

386
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 1: which is entirely possible because you just watched so much

387
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,359
Speaker 1: college basketball in a row. I think that was the

388
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: closest call any of these ones or twos had again,

389
00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 1: unless I guess Tennessee was close in there. They're one

390
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 1: against sexist, but a very close one, you know, to

391
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: get past A and M for Houston. Does that scare

392
00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: you off of Houston going up against a Duke team that,

393
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,479
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, looked really really good in dismantling JMU

394
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 1: right from the start or would you still kind of

395
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: lean towards the one seed in this one.

396
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 3: I think this is a great, great matchup for Houston,

397
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 3: I really do. And the fact that this is a

398
00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 3: Sweet sixteen game and not around a thirty two games,

399
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 3: so they can get some rest and they can prepare

400
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,040
Speaker 3: for Duke and watch some film wream. We know the

401
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 3: script on Duke and how to beat him, and it's

402
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 3: it's you rough them up, you get physical with them.

403
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 3: They lost to Tennessee in the tournament last year. It's

404
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 3: why they can't beat Carolina and Baycott if they play

405
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,880
Speaker 3: in a game that's dictated by guards on the perimeter.

406
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 3: Duke has to like that matchup. But going against Houston

407
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,480
Speaker 3: until they can prove to me that they can beat

408
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 3: a team that's physical, I can't back them. And you're

409
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 3: getting maybe the most physical team in college basketball. So

410
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 3: Houston really intrigues me. How many times worm have we

411
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 3: seen in this tournament where a team wins a survived

412
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 3: in advanced game and then goes on to just win

413
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 3: the whole thing, right, And it kind of feels like

414
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 3: Houston probably the last three or four years, they don't

415
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 3: win that game against A and M. We had four

416
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 3: guys foul out, four starters foul out. He still found

417
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,360
Speaker 3: a way to win. So there's something to be said

418
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 3: about that. And what I like too about handicapping some

419
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,000
Speaker 3: of these Sweet sixteen games is fading some of these

420
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,919
Speaker 3: teams that come in riding super high and some of

421
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 3: these teams coming in off barely a win. Like a

422
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 3: lot of people are gonna like Duke because of what

423
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 3: they saw against JMU. A lot of people are gonna

424
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 3: shy away from Houston because of the collapse against A

425
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 3: and M. But you gotta understand, it's a new round,

426
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 3: it's a new site, there's five off days in between,

427
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,000
Speaker 3: and it's just a bad match up for Duke. They

428
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 3: have not shown the ability to beat physical teams. So

429
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 3: I like the favorite in this one. I'd lay it

430
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 3: with Houston.

431
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:44,160
Speaker 1: Couldn't you just totally see like in you know, one

432
00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: shining moment if Houston wins it all, just you know,

433
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: the walk On coming in clutch free throw late. Ryan

434
00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: Alvin shout out to him, what a That's the moment

435
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: every walk On could possibly dream of. I know he

436
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,120
Speaker 1: missed one of the free throws, but still got him

437
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: up four late in that one, you know, and they

438
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,160
Speaker 1: had no choice with all the you know, the foul

439
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 1: trouble that they were in. Uh yeah, that that line,

440
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: you know, four to four and a half total one

441
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 1: thirty four and thirty four and a half. Depending where

442
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: you look, it sounds like you would lay the points

443
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: with Houston. And I'm right there with you, I think.

444
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, no question. It's just it's all about the matchup,

445
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 3: you know, It's all about the matchup. Each game is different,

446
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,920
Speaker 3: do clearly just Jmu just looks scared. You know. It's

447
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 3: just all that confidence they had against Wisconsin. It just

448
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 3: didn't look like the same team against Duke. They got

449
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,439
Speaker 3: on him early. But this is a new matchup. Houston

450
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 3: kind of feels like they're playing with new life. They

451
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 3: probably should be out of the tournament now they move

452
00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 3: on to the Sweet sixteen. I think it's a great

453
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 3: matchup for me a dupe.

454
00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 1: I always look really closely to you know, highly ranked

455
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: Power conference teams that they played multiple double digit seeds

456
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: to get to the sweet sixteen.

457
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 2: It is not a shot on JMU. They were very legitimate.

458
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 1: Obviously, they were a really good team this year and

459
00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: quite possibly were maybe underseated a little although they didn't

460
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,160
Speaker 1: look like getting the round of thirty two. But well,

461
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 1: whenever I see a team like Duke and you know,

462
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: they got through a thirteen and a twelve, I'm always like, okay,

463
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: like now you have the real you got the one

464
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,919
Speaker 1: seed coming up. That's a pretty big step up that

465
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 1: you haven't you haven't like ramped up to.

466
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 2: You didn't go thirteen, then a five, then a one.

467
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 1: You in thirteen twelve one, and it's a big step up,

468
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,440
Speaker 1: even with the you know, the several days to prepare here.

469
00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: On the other, you know side, in this region, Marquette

470
00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 1: versus that double digit seed that we mentioned, NC State,

471
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 1: Marquette is a team that I took to win a

472
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 1: number of my pools as sort of going against the

473
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,159
Speaker 1: everybody's gonna take Yukon or one of these one seeds,

474
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: and you know, Colic coming back healthy. I was really

475
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,719
Speaker 1: excited about he has looked very good, you know, especially

476
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: in that round of thirty two game. So Marquette against

477
00:21:47,359 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: NC State, what are your betting angles on this one?

478
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 3: So the way I'm approaching this game, Worm, We've obviously

479
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 3: talked about it kind of how chalky this tournament is

480
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 3: in terms of seeds, and what makes it really tough

481
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,679
Speaker 3: now is on all these survivor pools. I'm sure a

482
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 3: bunch of people that listen are in a bunch of

483
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 3: these pools. And if you look at the Friday games, right,

484
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:13,119
Speaker 3: it's Duke Houston, Marquette and NC State, Perdue, Gonzaga and

485
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,679
Speaker 3: Tennessee and Creighton. Of those four games, there is a clear,

486
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 3: clear choice for who ninety percent of people in their

487
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 3: pools are gonna take, and it's Marquette. And I've been

488
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 3: doing these pools way too long to know that when

489
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 3: we get into this second weekend and everybody is on

490
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 3: the same team, it usually doesn't work out well for them.

491
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,399
Speaker 3: And the dog that we're getting, Worm, is this dog

492
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 3: that is just playing with house money. Like we don't

493
00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 3: we just we can't understand how NC State keeps winning,

494
00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 3: right ACC tournament five games in five days, beat Duke,

495
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 3: beat Carolina, beat Texas Tech Oakland obviously a favorable matchup

496
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 3: instead of Kentucky. But look, credit to them for winning

497
00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,640
Speaker 3: that game. Now nobody's gonna like them again, and it's Marquette.

498
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 3: Kolik looks healthy, their offense looks great. But for me,

499
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 3: that's the betting angle in this one. It's just it's

500
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 3: the survivor pulls. And you know, when we get to

501
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 3: a Friday, nobody's gonna touch that Midwest region with perdugan Zaga,

502
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 3: Tennessee and Creighton. Nobody's gonna touch the Houston and Duke

503
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 3: game because they're likely going to like the winner of

504
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,679
Speaker 3: that to beat the winner of Marquette NC State, and

505
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 3: it's all gonna be on Marquette, and I think NC

506
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 3: State has a great shot of winning that game. Out right.

507
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 3: We didn't get that big, big upset in the round

508
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,480
Speaker 3: of thirty two, and this is really that game that

509
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:37,280
Speaker 3: would probably be the big big upset because all these

510
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 3: spreads are so tight. So I just look n C

511
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 3: State's hot right now where we see it all the

512
00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 3: time in the term, and some of these teams just

513
00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 3: get hot. I like the Wolfpack plus the points. I

514
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 3: take them on the money line as well.

515
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 1: I was gonna ask, would you prefer plus six and

516
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,840
Speaker 1: a half on the spread against the spread or plus

517
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: two to thirty on the money line?

518
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think certainly take both, right, I mean NC

519
00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 3: State I could see this game coming down to the wire.

520
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,200
Speaker 3: Marquette co Dolrado came down to the wire. Western Kentucky

521
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 3: was up at half against Marquette. Shakas Smart ever since

522
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,240
Speaker 3: he made it to the Final four with VCU has

523
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,520
Speaker 3: not been to the Sweet sixteen until this year. Is

524
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 3: his first time getting back, so you know he's struggled

525
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,240
Speaker 3: in those first two rounds. It's not going to be

526
00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 3: easy for Marquette. NC State is obviously battle tested. They've

527
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:22,959
Speaker 3: played against some really good teams, and I would certainly

528
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 3: the fact you're getting over the two full possessions, you're

529
00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 3: getting a key number there at six and a half,

530
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 3: I like it, and getting a good money line price

531
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 3: too at plus two thirty.

532
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,000
Speaker 1: So when you look at it, a cinderella team like

533
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 1: this NC State team is, do you see the break

534
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 1: now between the round of thirty two and sweet sixteen

535
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 1: as a benefit, because again, they've played so much basketball

536
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: in the last two weeks that they now get arrest

537
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: or do you see it as a detriment where this

538
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 1: team is really hot and they might cool off a

539
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: bit with the downtime.

540
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 3: No, I think it's big for them to get that

541
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 3: extra rest. Also, the fact that they played on a

542
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 3: Saturday and now get to play on a Friday. Right

543
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 3: they easily could have gone Sunday to Thursday, but the

544
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 3: fact that they're going Sunday, They're going Saturday to Friday

545
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 3: is massive for that team. I think they're so confident

546
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,080
Speaker 3: right now. Every time they take the floor, they think

547
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,600
Speaker 3: they're going to win. They just need their legs back

548
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,360
Speaker 3: underneath them. Because this is a team where Kevin Keats's

549
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 3: teams like to press, they like to pick you up

550
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,679
Speaker 3: full court, and they still have been doing that. But

551
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,120
Speaker 3: obviously he has to pick and choose his spots knowing

552
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 3: how fatigued his team has been playing so many games

553
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 3: in a short amount of time. So to get essentially

554
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 3: a full week off and to be able to play

555
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 3: and you're not going to have to get your guys

556
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 3: to get up for a Sweet sixteen game. So I

557
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 3: think the rest certainly is more important for NCI State.

558
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 1: So let's make an official pick for this, you know region.

559
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: We're both going to take Houston again, you know, over Duke.

560
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 1: Are you going to officially if we were refilling out

561
00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: a bracket, go NC State over Marquette.

562
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 3: I would. I would? Yeah, I have NC State in

563
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 3: Houston and the Elite eight. I like Houston to make

564
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 3: it to the final four.

565
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 2: Nice. Nice.

566
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 1: I will stick with Marquette just kind of because I

567
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: have to because they were they were might type'll pick,

568
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 1: you know, in so many of my pools. But okay,

569
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 1: so so so far to one seeds from you in

570
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,160
Speaker 1: you know, coming out of each of these regions. Let's

571
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,400
Speaker 1: go to Purdue's region. Purdue the one seed against Gonzaga

572
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:16,080
Speaker 1: the five. This was a Gonzaga team I liked quite

573
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 1: a bit a because they've played well, you know, later

574
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: in the season. But b it's it's almost like too

575
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 1: much of a narrative play. But just wouldn't it be

576
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 1: great if this was the year for Gonzaga, like of

577
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 1: all the years now finally everybody's you know, writing them

578
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,479
Speaker 1: off down season, nobody cares about them that they then

579
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: go on you know, the run to get over the hump.

580
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: I doubt it'll actually happen, but it was kind of

581
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: a fun, you know, fun thing to be rooting for,

582
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,159
Speaker 1: and that I did sprinkle in some of the pools

583
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 1: as well. But you know, going up against Purdue clearly,

584
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: you know, a very intimidating matchup and a very intimidating

585
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:51,719
Speaker 1: big man in Zach Edy.

586
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 2: What you take on this one?

587
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like Purdue minus the five and a half.

588
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 3: And I know a lot of people are gonna like

589
00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,800
Speaker 3: the Zags because of how they've looked in the first

590
00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 3: two rounds and because it's Perdue and we got into

591
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 3: the sweet sixteen, and it's like, even if you like

592
00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 3: Perdue to win the game, do you really want to

593
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,440
Speaker 3: lay five and a half with them? This line opened

594
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 3: up at four and a half, it went up to

595
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 3: five and a half. I think the public's gonna be

596
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 3: heavy on Gonzaga. I just it feels like something's different

597
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 3: with Perdue. It does now. I don't think they're gonna

598
00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 3: win the national championship. I don't even necessarily think they're

599
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 3: gonna make it to the final four, but I do

600
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 3: like this matchup with the Zags. These teams did play

601
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 3: in Maui earlier in the year, but The Zags are

602
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,640
Speaker 3: a team that obviously they run such a good offense

603
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:37,440
Speaker 3: and their guards are very good, but they do try

604
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 3: and get the ball inside to Watson and to Eke,

605
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 3: and with Edie in the middle, there's it's obviously gonna

606
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:46,960
Speaker 3: make life tough. So Gonzaga shot the lights out of

607
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 3: the ball against McNee state and against Kansas. They really

608
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 3: haven't had their kind of dud shooting night yet. I

609
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,440
Speaker 3: think that could maybe be coming here. So I'll lay

610
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:57,800
Speaker 3: the five and a half with Purdue. I think they're

611
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 3: gonna cover, isn't Uh aren't.

612
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,479
Speaker 1: We shaping up for Purdue to maybe face the same

613
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 1: field as they did in Maui in the same order,

614
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:10,400
Speaker 1: because they because they they won over Marquette, didn't they

615
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:15,639
Speaker 1: go Gonzaga Tennessee Marquee. I think they did, So we

616
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: could get the same you know, kind of stretch here

617
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: from them if they were to make it to the

618
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,119
Speaker 1: to the championship game, and if they have all the

619
00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:26,160
Speaker 1: same uh you know, opponents there, that is possible something

620
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 1: to look out for, uh you know, possibly happening. Yeah,

621
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 1: I I I'm kind of the opinion that I think

622
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 1: if it's close, I could see Gonzaga pulling it out.

623
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 1: I think if Purdue wins, which I think they probably do,

624
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 1: I think they win by by more than the five

625
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: and a half.

626
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 2: So I I like, I like laying the points.

627
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: If you think Purdue is gonna win, I think it's

628
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 1: gonna be a situation where, uh, you know, Edie is

629
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,400
Speaker 1: just unstoppable, where the shots are falling and they win

630
00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: by maybe even like double digits, which again, I do

631
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: like this Gonzaga team quite a bit, But when Purdue

632
00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,200
Speaker 1: is on, there are just you know, I think you're

633
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: It feels like there's something different about them this year.

634
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: Their next level is a level up just from most

635
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 1: of the teams they face, and I think that's including Gonzaga.

636
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,719
Speaker 1: So if you like Purdue to win, I'm definitely with

637
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 1: you on laying the five and a half for sure.

638
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 2: Anything on the total one fifty four and a half.

639
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:22,480
Speaker 3: No, nothing there. Both teams have just been so good offensively,

640
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 3: and both teams won't be afraid to run in the

641
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 3: game either. I don't know, you know, what's actually crazy,

642
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 3: and it might sound like kind of a silly take,

643
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 3: but I get this feeling that when I watch a

644
00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,240
Speaker 3: bunch of these games, at the regionals, Like, do you

645
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 3: get the same feeling too that some of these hoops

646
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 3: are way more just like shooter friendly. It just looks

647
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,239
Speaker 3: like they're way better for scoring. Like the hoops that

648
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 3: Purdue was playing on in Indy was a lot different,

649
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 3: it felt like than in Salt Lake City, and like

650
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 3: they're both NBA arenas, but it's like they were using

651
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 3: the hoops that the Pacers did, and then the hoops

652
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 3: that they were using where the Jazz play. It's just

653
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 3: like the ball was getting stuck in the net sometimes

654
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,000
Speaker 3: and it's like what is going on? So, like as

655
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,280
Speaker 3: crazy it is to say, sometimes there are better hoops

656
00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 3: at like certain regionals, and when you get a total

657
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 3: like that, I almost kind of want to see, like

658
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 3: what the hoop looks like before I bet a total.

659
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 3: Like as crazy as that is to say, I just

660
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:21,280
Speaker 3: I feel like a lot of people listening like can

661
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 3: understand what I'm kind of talking about.

662
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, man, I feel like I feel like they always talk.

663
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,400
Speaker 1: About like the softer rims at MAUI, you know, usually

664
00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: get a nice, friendly, friendly role right and bounce there.

665
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 2: I totally get that.

666
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 3: I'm with you, sir, sure, So like you know, I

667
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 3: would say for most of the regionals, like some of

668
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 3: the hoops were better. These are obviously two great offensive teams,

669
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:42,960
Speaker 3: and they're clicking. I mean they're clicking right now. So

670
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 3: I would probably lean towards the over, but man one,

671
00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 3: fifty four is a lot of points, so I'd stay away.

672
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 3: I think my favorite that would would be Purdue with

673
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 3: the points.

674
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 1: Both top seven teams and Ken pum on offense. There,

675
00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 1: let's go to Tennessee. Creighton on their side, you know,

676
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: two versus the three. So obviously, outside of Gonzaga quote

677
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: unquote upset in Kansas, this is a very chalky region.

678
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,080
Speaker 1: Tennessee is a team that I have really loved all season,

679
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: you know, the last you know, short bit of the

680
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: season that came down a bit, but they're still top

681
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: three defense in ken Pom Crayighton is eleventh on offense

682
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 1: in Ken Pom.

683
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:22,800
Speaker 2: So another bit of a stylistic clash here.

684
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: You know, Creighton just has a reputation and I think

685
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 1: they've lived up to that to a degree this year.

686
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: You know, this fun, free flowing offense, aesthetically pleasing, and

687
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: Tennessee is very happy to muck it up.

688
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 2: You know, there's been a lot of talk this year about.

689
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: How Dalton connect is kind of that he's what makes

690
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 1: Tennessee different this year. But like you said, still getting

691
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: into mucking it up so far in this tournament and

692
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 1: you know, kind of scraping by hard knows defense, all

693
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,200
Speaker 1: all that classic stuff.

694
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 2: So how do you see this one playing out Tennessee

695
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 2: versus Crayton.

696
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you mentioned that free flowing offense that

697
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 3: doesn't mind running and gunning, and Tennessee this year, obviously

698
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 3: they play in the SEC with the bunch of teams

699
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,760
Speaker 3: that can score. They've played Bama twice, they played Kentucky twice,

700
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 3: they played Florida, they played unc earlier in the year,

701
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 3: they played Wisconsin earlier in the year when their offense

702
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,720
Speaker 3: was really humming. They played Illinois like. They have played

703
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 3: a bunch of really good offenses this year, Worm, and

704
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 3: more often than not, a bunch of those games were

705
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 3: high scoring. Carolina game was one hundred to ninety two,

706
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 3: the Illinois game was eighty six to seventy nine. Both

707
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 3: Kentucky games eighty five, eighty one, one oh three, ninety two.

708
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 3: The Bama game they scored ninety one and eighty one points.

709
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 3: So you're looking at these matchups, Creighton is better defensively

710
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,479
Speaker 3: than certainly Kentucky and bamaver comparable to some of these

711
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 3: other teams. But nonetheless, I mean, you're just looking at

712
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 3: these Tennessee games, and when they've gone up against teams

713
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 3: that are really good on offense, have good shooters and

714
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 3: can score, these games tend to fly over the totals.

715
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 3: So it's a coin flip on that game. You could

716
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 3: make a case for either side Creighton. The thing that

717
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,080
Speaker 3: I've always said about them worm is I think people's

718
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 3: opinion on Creighton is it all depends on when you

719
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 3: watch them. And the Oregon game was the perfect It

720
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 3: was the perfect, like full Creighton experience. They go through

721
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 3: five minute stretches where they can't make anything, and then

722
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 3: they go through five minute stretches where they make everything

723
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 3: and they get great looks, and it's just like they're

724
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 3: shot varying. Sometimes they're on, sometimes they're not, and that's

725
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:25,000
Speaker 3: how they play. But I like the over in this game.

726
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,520
Speaker 3: I think Tennessee's gonna be able to score, and I

727
00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 3: think I think Creyton's gonna be able to as well.

728
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 3: So I'll take the over one forty three and a half.

729
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm I'm somewhat interested in the creating money line

730
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: just because I do think it's it's something close to

731
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 1: a coin flip, and if you're getting plus money on

732
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: either of these teams, I'm that would kind of tend

733
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:46,479
Speaker 1: to be my lean. I'm with you on the total

734
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: as well. That is that similar to Iowa State Illinois.

735
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,760
Speaker 1: That's just what I'm really excited to watch because I'm

736
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: really really fascinated to see how it plays out.

737
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 2: Like I said, I've been I have really really been

738
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 2: on board.

739
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: With Tennessee for most of the season, and I'm like

740
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: trying to not let just you know, a short stretch

741
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: of games pulled me off of that too much. I know,

742
00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 1: obviously the conference tournament went as poorly as it could

743
00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 1: possibly go for them, But this is just one I'm

744
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 1: very excited to watch.

745
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 2: So give me your official picks for this region.

746
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 1: It sounds like you know and I would as much

747
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 1: as I like can zag I'm with you on Purdue again,

748
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 1: advancing to the elite eight, who's your official pick on

749
00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 1: Creighton Tennessee and then can that team upset Purdue?

750
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 3: Yeah? I don't know. I mean this this is the

751
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 3: region I'm the most I'm the more most turn on

752
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 3: torn On, Like I really like Yukon out of the East.

753
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,680
Speaker 3: I like Houston out of the South. This one, though, man,

754
00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 3: I mean you could make a case for any of

755
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,320
Speaker 3: them if you had to ask me today, I'll probably

756
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 3: go with Purdue. I think it's either Purdue or Creighton.

757
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 3: I think it's one of those. Look, it's felt like

758
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 3: all year in college basketball there was a gap between

759
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 3: Houston Purdue, between Yukon and then Houston Purdue and then

760
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 3: kind of everybody else, like those were the three number

761
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 3: one seeds that were locked since like the beginning of February,

762
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 3: and then we were kind of trying to figure out

763
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 3: who that number one seed is. And the way that

764
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,080
Speaker 3: this tournament has played out worm with all the ones

765
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,319
Speaker 3: and all the twos and all these threes advancing, and

766
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 3: it's like only once have we ever had a Final

767
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 3: four where all number one seeds make it. But maybe

768
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,239
Speaker 3: that's like that's the direction that we're heading. So I

769
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:20,440
Speaker 3: think it's going to be a number another number one.

770
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:23,240
Speaker 3: I would take u Kon, Houston, and I like Purdue.

771
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 3: I had the Midwest as.

772
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:28,800
Speaker 1: Well within this region. If you gave me Perdue versus

773
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,879
Speaker 1: the field. I would take the field, but I don't

774
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:36,759
Speaker 1: know which one of them I would pick over Purdue individually, So.

775
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,840
Speaker 2: It feels like you kind of have to take Perdue.

776
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,680
Speaker 1: It's a great point about how there really was a

777
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,919
Speaker 1: clear top three this year, and outside of a scare

778
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,040
Speaker 1: against A and M, it's basically played out that way

779
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:49,719
Speaker 1: for these three teams so far.

780
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 2: Again, can Zaga plus Tennessee plus Crayton.

781
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: I like their combined chances better than Purdue's, but I

782
00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,439
Speaker 1: just don't know which one I would I would take.

783
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 1: I think whichever of Tennessee or Creighton wins that game

784
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 1: will give Purdue a game like. I don't think it's

785
00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 1: gonna be something where Purdue steam rolls their way into.

786
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 2: The final four.

787
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 1: But you can Again, I feel like you just have

788
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: to take them against any of these teams individually, So

789
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 1: I can't.

790
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 2: I can't push back against that.

791
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,040
Speaker 1: Given what we've seen, I have a feeling they won't

792
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: make it, But again, I'm not confident enough to say

793
00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:23,760
Speaker 1: who would.

794
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:25,359
Speaker 2: Maybe Creighton would be.

795
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: My choice too, but I'm really not sure. Let's go

796
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,920
Speaker 1: to the to the last region here, unc Verse, your

797
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,640
Speaker 1: Crimson Tide. You know, one seed versus four seed. This

798
00:36:37,680 --> 00:36:39,600
Speaker 1: is another region that you know, three of the teams

799
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 1: are chalk, of course, Clemson being the other one on

800
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 1: this side of the bracket. But but you know Carolina

801
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:49,240
Speaker 1: Alabama obviously, like your first thought is what a fun

802
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 1: you know, just back and forth offensive game this is

803
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,960
Speaker 1: gonna be? Are you betting the total that way? I

804
00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 1: mean it's one seventy three and a half, you know,

805
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,320
Speaker 1: is the first one I'm seeing. You know, this spread

806
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 1: is just just four and a half. It's a very

807
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 1: high number. But the way these teams play, you certainly

808
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:11,880
Speaker 1: it wouldn't be that shocking to see this be a huge,

809
00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 1: high scoring affair.

810
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 3: So wor this Bama team is historic. Man, In the

811
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 3: last twenty years, we had not had a team that

812
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 3: was top ten in offense according to ken Pom heading

813
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,000
Speaker 3: into the tournament and one hundred or worse make it

814
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:28,359
Speaker 3: to the Sweet sixteen. Bama becomes the first team to

815
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:33,120
Speaker 3: do so. And you can see why that trend is

816
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 3: such a good one because teams Kentucky was the other time.

817
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,960
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, Kentucky is the perfect example

818
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 1: of why it usually plays out that way.

819
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 3: Right, because we know there's so much chaos that happens

820
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:46,440
Speaker 3: in the first two rounds, and these teams that are

821
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:51,680
Speaker 3: so good on offense almost always have an offensive stinker

822
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 3: in their first two games. Kentucky's came in the first

823
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 3: round against Oakland, they lost. Bama's came yesterday against Grand Canyon,

824
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,320
Speaker 3: And if you watch the game, I mean Grand Canyon

825
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,760
Speaker 3: had every opportunity. They went to the foul line thirty

826
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,120
Speaker 3: seven times, they missed like fourteen free throws, they couldn't

827
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,799
Speaker 3: make a three, They were up three points with like

828
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:12,320
Speaker 3: less than five minutes to go, they end up losing

829
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,919
Speaker 3: by thirteen. It was just I've watched every Bama game

830
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,640
Speaker 3: this year, Worm, that was by far the best defense

831
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 3: I've seen them play. And it's not even the intensity

832
00:38:23,320 --> 00:38:25,640
Speaker 3: that they played with on defense in that game was

833
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:28,759
Speaker 3: truly impressive. But now that they've made it out of

834
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:31,560
Speaker 3: there and they've survived and they've made it to Carolina,

835
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 3: like this matchup is kind of good for him and

836
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 3: their non conference schedule. Bama has played five teams this year,

837
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 3: Worm that are in the Sweet sixteen. They played Arizona, Purdue, Creighton, Clemson,

838
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,160
Speaker 3: and Tennessee twice. Obviously being in the SEC, so they're

839
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 3: battle tested all of those games. The thing I would say,

840
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 3: outside of them playing in Knoxville, the similar characteristic that

841
00:38:56,040 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 3: I saw when Bama played all those top teams. They

842
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 3: were great in the first half and he was always

843
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 3: high scoring first halfs. So when those numbers become available,

844
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,200
Speaker 3: look for Bama first half and look for the first

845
00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 3: half over as well. This line is similar to kind

846
00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:13,879
Speaker 3: of what Michigan State was three and a half, four

847
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,080
Speaker 3: and a half depending on where you shop around. We

848
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,520
Speaker 3: know Michigan State was up twelve in the first half.

849
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 3: I could see Bama jumping off to a really hot

850
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 3: start too. Keep in mind, Bama just played in Spokane

851
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,280
Speaker 3: as well Worm, so they're staying on the West coast.

852
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 3: They're going to be in LA. Meanwhile, UNC has to

853
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 3: travel across the country from Charlotte to LA. So maybe

854
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 3: maybe a little advantage there for Bama, especially early on

855
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 3: in the game. I do think Carolina wins just because

856
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,479
Speaker 3: Bama has not been able to beat a really good

857
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 3: team this season away from a home. They were fortunate.

858
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,880
Speaker 3: You talked about Duke playing a couple double digit seeds.

859
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 3: Bama did as well. Now that they're playing against one

860
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 3: of the best teams in the country. I think they

861
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,319
Speaker 3: start hot. I think Carolina wears him down at the end.

862
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 3: But Bama first half, in the first half over are

863
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 3: two plays that I.

864
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:06,320
Speaker 1: Like, any I mean, as an Alabama fan, any interesting

865
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 1: and plus one sixty five on the money line for Bama,

866
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:13,359
Speaker 1: just as they could easily have another very hot shooting night.

867
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 2: And and you know, run with unc and give them

868
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 2: a game.

869
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 1: And I agree with you, like filling out a bracket

870
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 1: like I would take the tar Heels. But you know,

871
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 1: at plus one sixty five, I'm somewhat intrigued by that

872
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:27,560
Speaker 1: as a play on Bama.

873
00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:30,680
Speaker 3: I agree, especially because Carolina is gonna want to run

874
00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,600
Speaker 3: with them, right, Like, That's that's the thing. The teams

875
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,799
Speaker 3: that are gonna get Bama the most trouble would be

876
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 3: the San Diego States, the Saint Mary's, the Virginia's back

877
00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 3: in the day, right like, the teams that are really

878
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 3: good defensively and play at an ultra slow pace. That's

879
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:48,799
Speaker 3: obviously why Oakland gave Kentucky so much. Fits like, that's

880
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 3: what makes the tournament great is we get this contrast

881
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,239
Speaker 3: and styles. I think it's why we're so excited for

882
00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:56,839
Speaker 3: that Illinois Iowa State game to see how Illinois deals

883
00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 3: with that. But we know North Carolina is gonna want

884
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 3: to run. They feel like they can run with Bama

885
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 3: and they can do it better than they can. And

886
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 3: we know Bama's gonna run, So it's a great matchup

887
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 3: for him. I think there's gonna be a lot of points.

888
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 3: They had their off shooting night against Grand Canyon. I

889
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,440
Speaker 3: think they're gonna shoot much better in this game. Latrell Rightzel,

890
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,719
Speaker 3: who left for Bama, is gonna be back in this

891
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:20,319
Speaker 3: matchup against Carolina. He's one of their better players. So

892
00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 3: look where I I certainly wouldn't talk you off of it.

893
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:24,759
Speaker 3: Of the plus one sixty five, I told you I

894
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 3: like him the first half better. But now that they

895
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 3: got past that game in the round of thirty two

896
00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 3: that historically teams with their profile never do, it's almost

897
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:35,479
Speaker 3: like they're playing with house money at this point. Yeah,

898
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,879
Speaker 3: you know, Miami was such a bad defensive team last year.

899
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,480
Speaker 3: They kind of had their dut against Drake in the

900
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 3: first round, if you remember, got past that and then

901
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 3: here they go, beat Houston the Sweet sixteen, beat Texas

902
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 3: in the Elite eight. It's like for these teams. When

903
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 3: you're so good on offense so bad on defense, you're

904
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 3: gonna have that one dud. If you can overcome it,

905
00:41:55,160 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 3: then it's like, I mean, sure, in one game, can

906
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,799
Speaker 3: Bama's offense carry him over Carolina? They absolutely could.

907
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:05,480
Speaker 1: My favorite stylistic matchups in you know, March Madness are

908
00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:08,799
Speaker 1: what it's a big clash like we've talked about Iowa

909
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 1: State Illinois, or when it's two teams that want to

910
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 1: play the exact same way and who can do it better,

911
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 1: and that is, you know, I think something we'll see

912
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: play out in this matchup, last Sweet sixteen matchup here

913
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 1: Arizona versus Clemson, the two versus the six Again, I

914
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,799
Speaker 1: did not see Clemson coming because I was a big

915
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:29,360
Speaker 1: fan of New Mexico I so this was definitely a

916
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:33,040
Speaker 1: surprise to me. But as we talked about acc kind

917
00:42:33,040 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 1: of playing over what they had done throughout the regular season.

918
00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: Arizona a team that had disappointed under Tommy Lloyd, you know,

919
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,200
Speaker 1: not that many opportunities, but since he had come to

920
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:47,120
Speaker 1: Arizona from Goazaga, had been you know, very successful in

921
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,919
Speaker 1: the regular season, not so much so in March to date.

922
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,600
Speaker 1: Now Here in year three. He's you know, he's certainly

923
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,400
Speaker 1: in the sweet sixteen. Another good team. How are you

924
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 1: betting this one?

925
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 3: I like Clemson plus the seven and a half another

926
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:04,640
Speaker 3: game where I think the matchup really fits the Tigers.

927
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,560
Speaker 3: So we're in Clemson. I know they didn't have a

928
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,320
Speaker 3: great year in ACC play this year. They were only

929
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:15,239
Speaker 3: eleven to nine in ACC play, then obviously lost in

930
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 3: the first round in the ACC Tournament. A lot of

931
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 3: people were down on them, but man, if you go

932
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 3: through Clemson's non conference schedule and look at what they did.

933
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 3: They beat UAB, they beat Boise, they beat Bama and Tuscaloosa,

934
00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 3: they won at they won against South Carolina TCU on

935
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,320
Speaker 3: a neutral Like they were winning all these games against

936
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,959
Speaker 3: tournament teams in the non conference. You're starting to see

937
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 3: some of that show against New Mexico and Baylor. Something

938
00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:43,080
Speaker 3: else they did was they beat teams that were great

939
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:45,719
Speaker 3: on offense and played at a fast tempo. They just

940
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 3: played one against New Mexico in the first round, played

941
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,920
Speaker 3: a great offense in Baylor, beat Bama earlier in the year.

942
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,919
Speaker 3: As I mentioned, they beat Carolina, lost to Duke by

943
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 3: one at Cameron Indoor this year, so There's something about

944
00:43:57,719 --> 00:43:59,880
Speaker 3: Clemson when they go up against teams that won a

945
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,760
Speaker 3: play with pace and that are really efficient on offense,

946
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:05,560
Speaker 3: it always brings out the best in them. So there's

947
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,600
Speaker 3: nothing for me. Matchup wise, it should be a really

948
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 3: good one for Clemson. We're getting a whole bunch of

949
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,719
Speaker 3: points here with the seven and a half Arizona. If

950
00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:16,440
Speaker 3: you if you put these teams side by side, power rating,

951
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,720
Speaker 3: all these different things, it's all gonna point you towards Zona.

952
00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:23,920
Speaker 3: The price probably is about right. But matchup wise, when

953
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:26,560
Speaker 3: you really dive into it and kind of who the

954
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:29,319
Speaker 3: teams this year, the Clemson has been successful against. It's

955
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 3: these teams with these high powered offenses. So I like

956
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 3: Clemson to keep it close. I take them plus the points.

957
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:36,680
Speaker 1: Same question I asked you for NC State. Do you

958
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: prefer plus seven and a half on the points or

959
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:40,760
Speaker 1: plus two to sixty on the money line?

960
00:44:41,239 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, so NC State I think they can win out right, Clemson,

961
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 3: I don't think they can. I think this will be

962
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 3: a close game, so I would I would just take

963
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 3: them plus the points. With the Tigers.

964
00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,320
Speaker 2: What are our official picks for this region?

965
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:57,000
Speaker 3: All right, we're gonna go North Carolina over Bama. We're

966
00:44:57,000 --> 00:45:00,600
Speaker 3: gonna go Arizona over Clemson, and then you're gonna take

967
00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:04,880
Speaker 3: Arizona over North Carolina. I think Caleb Love gets his revenge.

968
00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 3: So we're finally going to have a two seed, make it.

969
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 3: I think it's justly not a one seed, finally not

970
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,799
Speaker 3: a one seed. I do think Caroline is gettable. We

971
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:14,920
Speaker 3: saw a little bit of that with Michigan State. I

972
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,840
Speaker 3: think Bama's gonna push him as well, and then Arizona

973
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,720
Speaker 3: is finally gonna take him down. Arizona, it does feel

974
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,680
Speaker 3: like there's something missing with them, which is why I

975
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,960
Speaker 3: don't think they can win the whole thing. But really

976
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,880
Speaker 3: favorable drawl, you know, getting Dayton when you probably should

977
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,400
Speaker 3: have gotten Nevada in that round of thirty two, getting

978
00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 3: Clemson when you easily could have gotten New Mexico or Baylor,

979
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:37,719
Speaker 3: who are both teams that are better on a sheet

980
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,600
Speaker 3: of paper, and then you know North Carolina one game

981
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 3: for a winner take all. I think it's a good

982
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 3: match up with them. They played Bama, they already played

983
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:48,360
Speaker 3: them earlier this year, so to see a Natos type game,

984
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,920
Speaker 3: to see his type of team, is type of style

985
00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:53,600
Speaker 3: in person, certainly helps them as well if they were

986
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 3: able to draw them. So I think it's a good

987
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,399
Speaker 3: spot for Arizona. I think they make it so in.

988
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:01,000
Speaker 1: The four regions, we have a one versus two, a

989
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:03,800
Speaker 1: one versus an eleven, A one versus A two or

990
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 1: three probably the three, and then another one versus a two.

991
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,400
Speaker 1: We've got those first three ones, the three obvious teams

992
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 1: again that we've talked about all season, Yukon, Houston, Purdue advancing,

993
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,799
Speaker 1: and then Arizona as far as any team futures here

994
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,480
Speaker 1: to wrap up, you know, Yukon plus two hundred, this

995
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,320
Speaker 1: is to win it all, U Coon plus two hundred,

996
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:27,120
Speaker 1: Houston plus five hundred, Perdue plus six fifty, Arizona plus

997
00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,000
Speaker 1: eight hundred. Then you get into UNC plus one thousand,

998
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:33,839
Speaker 1: Tennessee plus twelve hundred, Marquette plus sixteen hundred, Iowa State

999
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 1: plus eighteen hundred, Duke plus twenty five hundred, Kenzaga plus

1000
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:39,480
Speaker 1: twenty five hundred Crate and plus twenty five hundred, and

1001
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 1: then you're you know, you're getting further and further on

1002
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 1: Bama plus four thousand, Illinois plus twenty eight hundred, NC

1003
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 1: State plus ten thousand.

1004
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:49,359
Speaker 2: I know, I just ran through a bunch of those.

1005
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,239
Speaker 1: I know you know all those numbers as well, so

1006
00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:53,600
Speaker 1: I don't need to repeat them any Any futures stand

1007
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:53,920
Speaker 1: out to you.

1008
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:55,600
Speaker 2: For as far as an outright winner.

1009
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 3: I've told you, Houston intrigues me just because I've seen

1010
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,160
Speaker 3: it time and time again tournament when a team has

1011
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 3: a survived, advanced game that they just they find a

1012
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 3: way to do it. Those teams go on to win

1013
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:08,879
Speaker 3: the whole thing sometimes, So that was my pick preseason.

1014
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:11,960
Speaker 3: The biggest question for me about Houston. We know game

1015
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,000
Speaker 3: they can win games in the fifties, we know they

1016
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,279
Speaker 3: can win games in the sixties. Could they win a

1017
00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,279
Speaker 3: game in the eighties or the nineties. They showed us

1018
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 3: that they could do that against A and M. So

1019
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,400
Speaker 3: now they've they've kind of checked off all my boxes.

1020
00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 3: I'm going to continue to ride with them. I've mentioned

1021
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 3: I think Duke's a great matchup because Duke struggles with

1022
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:32,319
Speaker 3: physical teams. I think they'll beat NC State in the

1023
00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,759
Speaker 3: Elite eight, and then in the Final four, they're going

1024
00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 3: to get a great opponent out of the Midwest, and

1025
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:39,399
Speaker 3: they're likely going to draw Yukon in the title game,

1026
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 3: and we'll see what happens. But certainly I think the

1027
00:47:42,600 --> 00:47:44,719
Speaker 3: value at this point of Yukon is gone. I mean,

1028
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:46,680
Speaker 3: you've you've missed the boat. You've had an opportunity to

1029
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,960
Speaker 3: get bigger numbers plus two hundred right now, especially with

1030
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,319
Speaker 3: all the top seeds remaining or on what is it

1031
00:47:52,320 --> 00:47:55,400
Speaker 3: we have like thirteen the top fourteen Ken Palm teams

1032
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 3: that are in the sweet sixties. I've never seen anything.

1033
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:01,560
Speaker 3: It's just insane. So I mean truly, you know, I

1034
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:03,400
Speaker 3: know a lot of the times the NCAA Tournament, we

1035
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 3: all love it. It's the best sporting event. But the

1036
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 3: one gripe with it is that you don't sometimes get

1037
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,080
Speaker 3: the best teams. We really are like this year, which

1038
00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,799
Speaker 3: which is gonna be awesome. And because of that, even

1039
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:18,080
Speaker 3: though Yukon clearly is the best team in years previous,

1040
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 3: whereas there's more chaos and maybe I could justify a

1041
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:24,000
Speaker 3: plus two hundred, I just I can't see that happening

1042
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:26,360
Speaker 3: this year because they're they're gonna have to go through

1043
00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,279
Speaker 3: just about every other good team in college basketball for

1044
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 3: them to repeat.

1045
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Auburn is the only outlier in the top fourteen

1046
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 1: on Ken Palm that is that you know has been

1047
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,799
Speaker 1: bounced the only three teams not in the fourteen on

1048
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 1: Ken Pom that are still alive our seventeenth San Diego State,

1049
00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 1: twenty third Clemson, then of course NC State down at

1050
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 1: fifty three.

1051
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,760
Speaker 2: But yes, it's very very top heavy here.

1052
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 1: Just quickly, because I'm looking at Marquette plus sixteen hundred,

1053
00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:54,600
Speaker 1: I know we think that Houston would beat NC State.

1054
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 1: What would you make of a Houston Marquette Elite eight game?

1055
00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 1: And how might you see that playing out? Because if

1056
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:02,640
Speaker 1: Mark Kett does kind of end the Cinderella story again,

1057
00:49:02,680 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 1: I just love it that they have the best point

1058
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 1: guard in pretty much every game they play. If I'm

1059
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:11,800
Speaker 1: looking for value, I'm not taking anybody that's facing Yukon

1060
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,800
Speaker 1: before the championship game because I just think Yukon is

1061
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 1: is so good that I'm trying to avoid that. So

1062
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 1: I'm looking at somebody on the right side of the

1063
00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 1: bracket and I can't bring myself to say Purdue. And

1064
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,319
Speaker 1: then since I don't know which of those other three

1065
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:28,960
Speaker 1: teams in that region, that's why I'm looking at that

1066
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:32,239
Speaker 1: Houston Marquette potential matchup as where I kind of would

1067
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:33,440
Speaker 1: see the most value.

1068
00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 2: How would you see that playing out? If they were

1069
00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:36,080
Speaker 2: to meet.

1070
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 3: So I think it's a good matchup offensively for Marquette

1071
00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:43,480
Speaker 3: because we know Houston's gonna pack the paint. They're going

1072
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:46,160
Speaker 3: to allow you to shoot threes. Marquette is a team

1073
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 3: that is always going to have four shooters on the floor.

1074
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,120
Speaker 3: They're going to spread it out. Colic is so good

1075
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:55,760
Speaker 3: at directing traffic. However, I think on the other side,

1076
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 3: Houston is going to eat them up on the glass,

1077
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 3: like Marquette really doesn't I have too much size out

1078
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,600
Speaker 3: on the floor. Igadar is kind of like a six

1079
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:08,560
Speaker 3: nine six' ten, hybrid. Right he's not your traditional post

1080
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,759
Speaker 3: up player who block shots and gets rebounds and all

1081
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:14,040
Speaker 3: these kinds of, things and that's such a big part

1082
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 3: Of houston's. Offense SO i Think houston would Get marquette

1083
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:19,560
Speaker 3: in a ton of foul. Trouble If marquett's hitting their,

1084
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,840
Speaker 3: threes they would have to hit about thirteen or fourteen

1085
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:23,640
Speaker 3: threes in that. Game that's one of those games where

1086
00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:26,200
Speaker 3: they would have to play lights, out which they certainly,

1087
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:29,160
Speaker 3: could they're they're that good offensively to do. It BUT

1088
00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 3: i would LIKE i would Like houston that.

1089
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,799
Speaker 1: Matchup IF i am picking that other region as a

1090
00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 1: you sort of long, shot creating plus twenty five hundred

1091
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,799
Speaker 1: two as sort of like a twenty Sixteen villanova just

1092
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:41,759
Speaker 1: they get really hot and can't miss for a few

1093
00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:45,480
Speaker 1: games in a, row like, possibility you, know at that,

1094
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:47,839
Speaker 1: value BECAUSE i that is a team THAT i could

1095
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:53,319
Speaker 1: see Upsetting, purdue you, know assuming they get Past tennessee and.

1096
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 2: Just kind of getting hot and going on a.

1097
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,919
Speaker 1: Run at that, value, Obviously yukon is like the likely,

1098
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: team and that's why there's no value.

1099
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,479
Speaker 2: There any other bets we didn't hit.

1100
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:04,319
Speaker 3: On that you want to, Mention, no nothing, ELSE i

1101
