1
00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio. Great Radio.

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,920
Speaker 2: We are an hour away from the field of sixty

3
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,640
Speaker 2: eight being revealed. We will have it for you on

4
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. Welcome in hit Aaron up at aeron

5
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,319
Speaker 2: Underscore Torres. You can find me at Dan Byer on

6
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:21,320
Speaker 2: Fox our seventh annual Selection show special erin Torres. It's

7
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 2: great to be with you on this day.

8
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,440
Speaker 3: I don't mean to get sat off the top seventh annual,

9
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 3: only six brackets to actually reveal.

10
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 4: We don't have to talk about twenty twenty.

11
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 2: However, it makes us appreciate this day so much more.

12
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 2: I thought about that last night when I was driving

13
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 2: back to my house. I had to run to the store,

14
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 2: and I said, tomorrow is a great day. And I

15
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 2: tweeted it in a pre show tweet earlier today, calling

16
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 2: it the Christmas Morning for college basketball fans because Selection

17
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: Sunday is here. But that missing out in twenty twenty

18
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 2: makes me appreciate everything that's going on in this week,

19
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 2: which was the greatest week that we have on the

20
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 2: sports calendar. It's funny because I think that the NFL

21
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: and college football are so popular that we think that

22
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 2: the fall is the best time, Like this past week

23
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:17,119
Speaker 2: with NFL free agency, with college basketball, with what the WBC,

24
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 2: and I know it doesn't happen every year, but what

25
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 2: that has provided us just a magnificent week of sports.

26
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: And by the way, next week not too shabby either.

27
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 2: I'm locked into the Players Championship as well. In golf,

28
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: which has been magnificent. Ludvig Goldberg, you thought was gonna

29
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 2: run away with it. He's now two shots back of

30
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 2: the lead. So it's been in a magnificent week, Aaron.

31
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 2: But there is nothing better than Selection Sunday, when the

32
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,240
Speaker 2: brackets come out in now fifty eight minutes.

33
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 3: Yes, also hide the women, hide the children. Joe Lonardi

34
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 3: has just released his final.

35
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 4: Bracket, Final brackets.

36
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 3: All right, I know we're more team Mike Decorsi here

37
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 3: at Fox, but you know Lonardi is the godfather. He

38
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 3: basically created bracketology, and he just tweeted one minute ago

39
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 3: quote see you next year with a piece of paper

40
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 3: and a bunch of teams on it.

41
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 2: The secret sauce in bracketology is you're gonna get sixty

42
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 2: four out of the sixty eight, right, It's just can

43
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: you get sixty seven out of sixty eight? Can you

44
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 2: get all sixty eight. That's the question when you really

45
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 2: break it down, because now there are sites that keep

46
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: track of bracketology. Oh yeah, and they will tell you

47
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,240
Speaker 2: who is the past and who is the worst of it.

48
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 2: There are seeds, there are matchups. I think that the

49
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 2: bracketologists and Joe Lonaradi got some flack by calling it

50
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 2: the professionals, like you needed a class in it. Did

51
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 2: you see that there's about a week or so ago. Yes, yes,

52
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 2: leave this to the professionals. Told he told someone. But

53
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: some of the tricks of the trade when it comes

54
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 2: to the selection committee are out the mileage sort of deal.

55
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 2: When you think a team is going to be placed

56
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,160
Speaker 2: in a certain city for a first round game, you'd

57
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 2: think like, oh, that's where it's gonna go. One of

58
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 2: those examples this year is Michigan, a number one unseed,

59
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 2: and the Midwest sort of sites that you would have

60
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 2: for first and second round games are Saint Louis in

61
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City. We don't have a Chicago, we don't have

62
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,960
Speaker 2: a Milwaukee, we don't have a Detroit, we don't have

63
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 2: an Indianapolis. Because the Final four is going to be

64
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 2: there and the regional finals are going to be in Chicago,

65
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 2: so you've got Saint Louis in Oklahoma City, Michigan's likely

66
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 2: headed to Buffalo. Buffalo is closer to ann Arbor than

67
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 2: Saint louis Is. So those are some of the tricks

68
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 2: that you will see. And when you're looking at the brackets,

69
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 2: those bracketologists know it, but it's become such an art

70
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 2: eraand that you have hundreds of people breaking out their

71
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 2: own brackets, and now you can judge them not only

72
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: on the number of teams, where again sixty four out

73
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 2: of sixty eight I think are given, it's also then

74
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: on the seeding process of those teams.

75
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 3: So yeah, and I don't mean to criticize Joe Lonardi here,

76
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 3: but there is a website I want to say, it's

77
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,120
Speaker 3: called maybe bracket Matrix, and everybody references like whenever somebody

78
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 3: gets mad at Joe Lonardi for something, it becomes like a, well,

79
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 3: you know, he finished ninety first on bracket Matrix last year.

80
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 3: I'm like, no, I actually didn't know, and I'm just

81
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 3: going to use his bracket because it's the easiest to

82
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 3: find and it is the industry standard and he's not perfect.

83
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 3: But yeah, so yes, no, there are a lot more

84
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 3: bracketologists than we expect. But like I said, between Mike

85
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 3: de COURSEI at Fox, and of course Joe Lenardi, who's

86
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 3: been doing this for a long time, those are kind

87
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 3: of the two that I focus.

88
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 2: I will say this, Joe Lonardi last year one hundred

89
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 2: and twenty fifth out of one. It was eighty six.

90
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's where that's where he stands. By the way,

91
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 2: I have Brett have bracket matrix right in front of me.

92
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 2: I said, there's one hundred. They're more than a hundred.

93
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 2: There's two hundred and two hundred and fifty and more

94
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 2: bracketologists that are laying out the bracket, which makes if

95
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 2: you start to thumb through some of them, you get

96
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 2: kind of a sense of what bracket we're gonna see.

97
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 2: But even if he didn't do this, Aaron I said,

98
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: maybe about a month ago, carry Rhoades usually in your

99
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 2: chair on Fox Sports Sundays alongside me. I was a

100
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 2: bit worse because of last year's final four, coming off

101
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 2: of four number one seeds. Great final four, by the way,

102
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,600
Speaker 2: don't want to take anything away from the final four,

103
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 2: but we had four number ones for just the second

104
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 2: time in history. The year prior we had two, and

105
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 2: I felt like this year we were heading towards when

106
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 2: we look at who's who of college basketball. At that point,

107
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 2: I almost felt there was a power four. Now there's

108
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 2: a been a bit of a changing the guard, Florida's

109
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,919
Speaker 2: moved up to the one line, but really, with the

110
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 2: dominance of Michigan, Duke and Arizona throughout this season, I

111
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 2: just wonder if we're also going to see that in

112
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 2: this NCAA tournament. Sure, and that's I hope it's not

113
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 2: the case. I love some chaos, I love some Cinderella,

114
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: but I don't want to see three number ones and

115
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 2: I don't want to see four number ones, no matter

116
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 2: how good the final four could end up being for us.

117
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 2: I'm just wondering, is college basketball as top heavy as

118
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 2: it has seemed to be these last four or five months.

119
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,479
Speaker 3: So I tend to actually disagree a little bit. And

120
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 3: if you go back to last year, if I remember correctly,

121
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 3: and I've been referencing this, I should just pull it up.

122
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 3: Let's see here twenty twenty five Sweet sixteen. Clearly all

123
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 3: four number one seeds made it because they made the

124
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 3: final four. I believe all but one four seed made

125
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 3: it all three seeds made it, and all but one

126
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 3: two seed made it, and the two seed that was

127
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:35,279
Speaker 3: upset with Saint John's by Arkansas and John Caliperi. So

128
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 3: essentially fourteen to the top sixteen teams advanced to the

129
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 3: second weekend. I know we live in this post portal

130
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 3: nil world where a lot of the best players in

131
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 3: college basketball, like a Yaxa Lendenborg, who's of course playing

132
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,479
Speaker 3: right now for Michigan in the Big Ten Championship game,

133
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 3: have transferred up a level and the talent isn't as

134
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 3: good as it was at the mid majors. I don't

135
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 3: think that top group really, once you get past three, four, five,

136
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 3: is as invincible as they were a year ago. You

137
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 3: got some teams like Saint John's that are playing great,

138
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 3: Arkansas is playing great. But then the counter to that is,

139
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 3: you know, Yukon just got dominated in the Big Eiast

140
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 3: Tournament championship game last last night. They of course lost

141
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 3: their regular season finale to a below five hundred Marquette team.

142
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 4: You have teams like you know, Listen.

143
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 3: As good as Houston is, I don't think they're as

144
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 3: good as they were a year ago. They did just

145
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 3: have a three game losing streak about ten or so

146
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 3: days ago. The only point I'm trying to bring up,

147
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 3: I think a lot of those teams, especially once you

148
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 3: get to like that five to fifteen range, when we

149
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 3: see the actual seeds, I think, are a little bit

150
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 3: more susceptible than they were a year ago.

151
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,880
Speaker 2: Okay, but what about the top three? The top three,

152
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 2: That's that's where I'm curious because I think that's kind

153
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 2: of where we look at Yukon dominant in back to

154
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 2: back years. Again, all four number ones last year, just

155
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 2: even looking at the twenty twenty four bracket, we had

156
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 2: a one five to three to two. In a sweet sixteen,

157
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 2: we had a one two four six. In a sweet sixteen,

158
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: we had a one two four eleven, which was NC State,

159
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 2: and then we had a one five two three. And

160
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 2: I think that this is this is nil. I think

161
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 2: that this is transfer portal to your point, But I'm

162
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 2: wondering if we're starting to see a trend. And that's

163
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 2: what I was worried about. And I'll tell you what,

164
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: over the last couple of days, it's given people like

165
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,480
Speaker 2: me hope that maybe it isn't has given seeing the

166
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 2: trouble that Michigan is having with Purdue and the struggles

167
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 2: that Michigan has had over the last couple of games

168
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 2: in this tournament with Wisconsin and Ohio State, and it

169
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 2: may be just schools knowing schools so well, Florida gets

170
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,199
Speaker 2: knocked out of the SEC tournament. For as great as

171
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 2: as Duke has been and for as great as Arizona

172
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 2: has been, Arizona needed the buzzer beater Duke held off

173
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 2: Virginia last night. So it hasn't wasn't a cakewalk for

174
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 2: those teams erin. But I just don't know when I

175
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 2: look at the two seeds, when I look at the

176
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 2: three seeds, which by the way, could be a big

177
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 2: ten teams by the time it's all said and done,

178
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 2: when we get the brackets in an hour, you can

179
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 2: just have big ten across the way. As three seeds,

180
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 2: I just don't know if they can challenge these three powers.

181
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 2: And if you want to put Florida into that conversation,

182
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 2: that's fine. And maybe Houston's on the outside looking in

183
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 2: as a two seed, but I just I don't want

184
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 2: to see four number one seeds going to the final

185
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 2: four this year. I don't want to see three out

186
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,439
Speaker 2: of four number one seeds going to the final four

187
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 2: this year. I think if that happens, then we may

188
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 2: start to have a bit of a problem in college hoops. Yeah.

189
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 3: No, And it's funny because we did talk about this

190
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 3: exact topic on my Saturday show For people who don't know,

191
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 3: I host eleven pm to two am Eastern on Saturdays,

192
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 3: and my partner Jason Martin and I talked about this

193
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: is that I said on our show a week ago.

194
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 3: Leading into the conference tournaments, I really did think there

195
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,679
Speaker 3: was a big gap with those top four. But even

196
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 3: though Duke Arizona win their respective conference tournaments, I think

197
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 3: what's going to be a factor for people who don't

198
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 3: follow college basketball on a day to day basis the

199
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 3: Duke injury situation. Two starters did not play in the

200
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 3: conference tournament. And now you could sit there and say, well,

201
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 3: they still want it. They did not look like they

202
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 3: did during the regular season, and so between the injuries there,

203
00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 3: you know, the Big Twelve player of the Year Jaden Bradley

204
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,600
Speaker 3: was a little bit banged up coming out of the

205
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 3: Big Twelve tournament. Even though Arizona one, I do and

206
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 3: by the way, Michigan, it looks like they will probably

207
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 3: take a loss in the Big Ten Championship game. It

208
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 3: does feel to me like that top four is a

209
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 3: little bit more susceptible. I'm including Florida in there. I

210
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,280
Speaker 3: assume they'll be the fourth number one seed. I do

211
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 3: think they're a little bit more susceptible than I thought

212
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:36,719
Speaker 3: maybe a week ago.

213
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 2: Michigan, I think people had put them in the number

214
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 2: two overall spot with the loss to Duke head the

215
00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 2: head that they had so Duke, even with their injuries.

216
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to be penalized because you

217
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:49,319
Speaker 2: haven't seen the blumph.

218
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, they shouldn't be penalized. I'm just talking about

219
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 3: when you're filling out your bracket next. And I'm not

220
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 3: saying that you were saying that. It's just explaining to

221
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 3: the listener of where Michigan is at a two spot.

222
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,960
Speaker 3: But now, if Michigan struggle in these three games that

223
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 3: they played in Chicago and maybe loses this as you said,

224
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 3: five minutes to go, they're down by nine to Purdue

225
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:11,640
Speaker 3: at this point, this would be enough to say, Okay, Arizona,

226
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 3: now you're the second overall seed.

227
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 2: Michigan'll be the three. Really wouldn't change the bracket that much.

228
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: But I think that's where you can see a fallout

229
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 2: from this game here. But again, one of our theories

230
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,079
Speaker 2: on our seventh annual selection show has been the Sunday

231
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,119
Speaker 2: even matter to the selection committee.

232
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 3: Well, this is probably an annual rant if you have

233
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,719
Speaker 3: heard us in any of the six previous years. I

234
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,560
Speaker 3: don't think we should even be playing games on Sunday.

235
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 3: I've argued that for a while. Is have every game

236
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 3: end on Saturday, and you could play them late too.

237
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,079
Speaker 3: I mean, we had the Whack Championship end about two

238
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:51,400
Speaker 3: am Eastern time. But give the committee the night the

239
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 3: morning to look over the bracket again, and then it

240
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 3: doesn't have to be rushed because I can listen. I

241
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 3: could guarantee you one thing. I'll guarantee you two things

242
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,280
Speaker 3: that come out of this bracket. One, Douke will be

243
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 3: the number one overall seed. Two we will get a

244
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 3: press conference by the end of the night of John

245
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 3: Caliperry complaining about his seating and saying that winning the

246
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 3: SEC tournament meant absolutely nothing.

247
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 2: That is one.

248
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 3: Thousand percent going to happen. Monitor your social media feeds accordingly.

249
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 3: But I bring it up because I actually do think

250
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 3: it wouldn't be the worst thing if we didn't play

251
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 3: games on Sunday. Give the committee until three four, five

252
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 3: o'clock reset the bracket, have guys like Joe Lonardi on TV,

253
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 3: have guys like you and I on radio breaking it down, overreacting,

254
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,199
Speaker 3: over analyzing, but also giving the committee a fair amount

255
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 3: of time. Because listen, let me just say this really quick.

256
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 3: I'm going in all sorts of directions like if Perdue

257
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 3: beats Michigan here in the Big Ten championship game, that's

258
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,599
Speaker 3: by definition, one of the best wins we saw in

259
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,520
Speaker 3: college basketball all year, and I'm just sorry, it's hard

260
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 3: for me to believe that the committee can fully factor

261
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,719
Speaker 3: that into the rest of the bigger picture with you know,

262
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 3: there's gotta be twenty minutes to go when before the

263
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 3: brackets announced. So that was a long diet tribe that

264
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 3: went in a lot of different directions, But my the

265
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 3: biggest theme is I don't love playing games on Sunday,

266
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 3: and I think we should end up Saturday. Give us

267
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 3: all day to kind of get this bracket finalized for

268
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 3: six pm East.

269
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 2: On the On the heels of that, this is this

270
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 2: is the tricky part is I think that the committee

271
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 2: can make contingency plans that are pretty easy, and pretty easy,

272
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,959
Speaker 2: is all right, If Wichita State wins, they're going to

273
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 2: be the twelve seed. If South Florida wins, they're going

274
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 2: to be the twelve seed. Like, they can make that

275
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 2: sort of contingency right, because for an automatic bid.

276
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 4: You sound like your buddy Seth Davis.

277
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 2: There.

278
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,439
Speaker 3: That was he was on a big rant on social

279
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 3: media a few weeks ago. He said, he said, you're

280
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 3: allowed your own opinions, you're not allowed your own facts.

281
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,600
Speaker 3: Games on and I'm paraphrasing essentially, but he said, games

282
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 3: on Sunday matter. It's called contingency brackets. Dan Byer, I'm

283
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: just saying again.

284
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 2: I didn't finish my thought. Oh I didn't finished my thought.

285
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 2: My point is is you can make a contingency plan

286
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 2: for that. I don't think you can make it on

287
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 2: the outcome of a Purdue strengthening their resume or not

288
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 2: helping their resume. So I think it's easy to do

289
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 2: that when you have a one bid league with the

290
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 2: automatic bid, and you're saying, all right, this is the place,

291
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 2: like that's that would be a contingency bracket. Right, Wichita

292
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 2: States in one, South Florida is in the other. That

293
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 2: would that would lead to what Seth Davis is talking about.

294
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 2: What I don't think that you can do is say,

295
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 2: all right, we have to move up Purdue now to

296
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 2: a three three live maybe the last number two seed

297
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 2: because they just beat Michigan. Like that doesn't that just

298
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 2: doesn't work. And as I just sat here and said,

299
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 2: if Michigan loses this game that they may drop down

300
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 2: to the third overall seed, there could be a situation

301
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 2: where that doesn't necessarily happen, where they just keep it

302
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 2: the way that it is and say, you know what,

303
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 2: if all the seeds hold, Michigan and Arizona are going

304
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 2: to play in the national semifinals, in the final four anyway,

305
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 2: So why not change anything. We'll find out in forty

306
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,359
Speaker 2: six minutes if that happens.

307
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 3: Now one hundred percent, And I, like I said, bigger picture,

308
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 3: I just think it would help everyone to reset and

309
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 3: listen what it doesn't matter if it's Purdue, if it's whoever.

310
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 3: I just find it's so hard to believe that you

311
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 3: can fully evaluate what a win like this would look like.

312
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 3: And I'll give a little historical context here, But I

313
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 3: remember twenty twenty two. That was the year Tennessee beat

314
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 3: Texas A and M in the SEC Championship game on

315
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 3: a Sunday bracket comes out Tennessee is a seed line

316
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 3: lower than everybody thought they should be, and Texas A

317
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:30,800
Speaker 3: and M was presumed to be in and left out. Now,

318
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 3: obviously you could argue Texas A and M that result

319
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 3: didn't matter because they were clearly obviously already left out,

320
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,600
Speaker 3: but both schools felt like, what was the point of

321
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:40,680
Speaker 3: even playing on Sunday?

322
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 4: We got no benefit out of it.

323
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 3: So I just bring it up because there is a

324
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 3: history of teams playing on Sunday feeling like the committee

325
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 3: hasn't fully been able to evaluate what they saw on Sunday.

326
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 4: But to your point, we will have a.

327
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 3: Bracket in thirty three forty three minutes and none of

328
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 3: it will matter, and we will.

329
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 2: Unveil it to you right here as it's being unveiled

330
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,800

Speaker 2: of the show that I think it's going to be

00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 2: the next best thing, the one shining moment. I truly

341
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 2: think it is so enough to keep you with us.

Speaker 2: Selection Sunday on Fox Sports Radio our seventh Daniel Selection

371
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 2: Show special. He's erin Torres, I'm Dan Byer. Brackets being

372
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 2: unveiled in thirty five minutes when they are revealed on CBS,

373
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 2: we will reveal them to you on Fox Sports Radio.

374
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 2: Hit air it up at Aaron Underscore Torres. You can

375
00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 2: find me at Dan Byer on Fox Michigan trails Purdue

376
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 2: by nine with under a minute to go. This may

377
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 2: not be in the vein of competition, Aeron Torres, but

378
00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 2: UCLA got banged up yesterday. Mick Cronin even said in

379
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 2: the post game that there was no point in sending

380
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 2: one of his players back into the game because of

381
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 2: an injury and make sure that they're ready for the

382
00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,320
Speaker 2: NCAA tournament. Dusty mace Crew is down ten. I wouldn't

383
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,520
Speaker 2: have a starter within ten feet of the playing surface

384
00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 2: right now, Aaron Torres, I would just get everybody out

385
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 2: of the game. You lose this game, You lose this game.

386
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 2: But I do not want anybody turning an ankle or

387
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,240
Speaker 2: twisting anything in these final sixty seconds trying to come

388
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 2: back from an eleven point deficit.

389
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 3: So yesterday, Jaden Bradley, the Big Twelve Player of the Year,

390
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 3: hurt his wrist in the Big Twelve tournament, and the

391
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 3: way Arizona for Arizona correct, I apologize if the way

392
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 3: he held it I watched it, it felt like he

393
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 3: like might be out for the year, like just transparently,

394
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 3: And in that moment, I was like, there is no

395
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 3: one who loves conference tournaments more than me, Like it's

396
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 3: it's my favorite week on the sports calendar. I also

397
00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:42,200
Speaker 3: think having all of your best teams play three high

398
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 3: leverage games in three straight days right before the most

399
00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:51,160
Speaker 3: important games of your season probably not the best way

400
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 3: to do things. Like I'm so torn because I love

401
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 3: conference tournaments and I want them to, you know, stay

402
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 3: the way that they are forever in this ever changing

403
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,160
Speaker 3: world of college sports that we have. But it's also

404
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 3: it's indisputable, you know, and we referenced it a minute ago, like,

405
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 3: you know, Duke had two starters out this week and

406
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 3: John Shire said going into the week, they're not going

407
00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 3: to see the court. You know, you go on and

408
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,200
Speaker 3: on down the list. There were little injuries here, they're

409
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 3: thankfully nothing major. But remember last year Cooper Flagg got

410
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 3: hurt in the ACC tournament opener, and you're like, when

411
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 3: is he going to come back? How soon will he

412
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 3: be back? Will he even be able to play the

413
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 3: opening weekends? So it is that push pull of It's incredible,

414
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 3: but uh, probably not the smartest way. If we were

415
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 3: restarting college basketball from scratch, and we all decided that

416
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,880
Speaker 3: a sixty eight team tournament, single elimination to end it

417
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 3: was the best way to determine a champion, I don't

418
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 3: think we would then also have a single elimination tournament

419
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 3: the week before for every marquee team.

420
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,880
Speaker 2: And I know that there's the call of just put

421
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,919
Speaker 2: the regular season champion in, but for a lot of

422
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 2: the small leagues, they need this tournament. They need their

423
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,400
Speaker 2: games to be on the networks. So that is why

424
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 2: they do it. And it may not necessarily be fair

425
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 2: to those regular season champions that go thirteen and five

426
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,479
Speaker 2: in League Player or sixteen and two and then get

427
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 2: ousted in the first round or semi finals or whatever

428
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 2: it is. Those leagues do need to have those conference tournaments.

429
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 4: Two quick thoughts.

430
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:19,920
Speaker 3: One, every coach knows it fair or not that their

431
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 3: entire resume is largely going to be determined by three

432
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 3: days at a conference cerm in March. Two, what I

433
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,879
Speaker 3: would also say is this is also what makes college

434
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,200
Speaker 3: basketball so unique, right, because this is a big argument

435
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,959
Speaker 3: about college football is by the time you get to November,

436
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,960
Speaker 3: how many teams are really in it? And it is

437
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 3: a cool part of college basketball is that quite literally

438
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,959
Speaker 3: every team starts March with a chance to play their

439
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 3: way into the tournament and the NCAA tournament of course,

440
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 3: and compete for a national championship.

441
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: Now, as we look ahead to the tournament, which we

442
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 2: will have the first four games in Dayton on Tuesday

443
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 2: and Wednesday. First round games will begin Thursday. These sites

444
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 2: for the Thursday Saturday games in the Restaurant or Buffalo, Greenville,

445
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,920
Speaker 2: South Carolina, Portland, and Oklahoma City. The reason I bring

446
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: that up is again we mentioned Michigan a bit earlier.

447
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 2: Our good buddy Doug Gottlieb, formerly a Fox Sports radio

448
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 2: now head coach at Green Bay as the Phoenix ended

449
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 2: up making it to Indianapolis for the final five. If

450
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 2: you will in the Horizon League tournament, Doug sent out

451
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 2: a tweet earlier today saying that if you play on

452
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 2: Sunday in a conference championship game, you shouldn't be playing

453
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 2: on Thursday. If Michigan goes to Buffalo, guess who's playing

454
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 2: on Thursday. Yeah, they may be playing at seven o'clock

455
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,399
Speaker 2: Eastern time later on at night. The community will give

456
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 2: them maybe sort of that sort of grace, but they'll

457
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 2: be playing at that time. They also very well maybe

458
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 2: playing the team that went on Tuesday. So I don't

459
00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 2: have tons of empathy or sympathy for a shorter week

460
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,520
Speaker 2: for Michigan in that scenario. But there's just some things

461
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 2: that you can't necessarily avoid when you're trying to set

462
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 2: up a bracket and you're trying to make it as

463
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,080
Speaker 2: fair as possible. There are going to be teams that

464
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 2: played today that are going to have to play on Thursday.

465
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you add in all the nuance that

466
00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 3: already goes into building a bracket. I don't know that

467
00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 3: you know there's much you can do about that, And

468
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 3: I think you get to this point of the year.

469
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,639
Speaker 3: Everyone has a tough slate, everyone has tough travel. You

470
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,479
Speaker 3: just figure it out. You just make it work, all right.

471
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,439
Speaker 3: Do you want to know why five questions oh of

472
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 3: the bracket? Am I answering them? Or you just spin?

473
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 7: Yeah?

474
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 2: Good, No, look, go ahead, give me your opinion on these.

475
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 2: And actually one of them was answered. It was the

476
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 2: VCU conundrum. Oh, the VCU can undrum that I talked

477
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 2: with you and Jason Martin last night. When I did

478
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 2: my hit it h one twenty am Eastern. I couldn't

479
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 2: tell my mom I was doing the hit, but oh no,

480
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,240
Speaker 2: you allowed me the grace to to do the late spot.

481
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,919
Speaker 2: So we got together and I said that VCU was

482
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 2: the story today because VCU if they lose to Dayton,

483
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 2: Dayton gets the automatic bid and VCU may have knocked

484
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 2: themselves out of the tournament by for an at large

485
00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 2: bid because they were a bubble team. Now they don't

486
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 2: have to worry about it. They're an at large. They're

487
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,880
Speaker 2: they're the automatic bid. They are in from the A ten.

488
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 2: How high does Saint John's get?

489
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 3: So I know we're on this to literally do bracketology.

490
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 3: I think it seems like they're pretty set on A four,

491
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 3: maybe a five. I think they're playing like much better

492
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 3: than than the twelfth to sixteenth best team. The problem becomes,

493
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 3: and this is something we talked about a lot on

494
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 3: our show last night, is that you know the committee rightfully,

495
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 3: they create your body of work is your body of work,

496
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,120
Speaker 3: And as of even about six seven years ago, there

497
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 3: was a metric of your last ten games, what is

498
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 3: your record? And that was weighed more heavily, and people

499
00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 3: would complain, you know that, Hey, why does a big

500
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 3: win in November count any less than a big win

501
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:46,000
Speaker 3: in March?

502
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 2: Right?

503
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,400
Speaker 3: And so I only bring it up because the opposite

504
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:49,439
Speaker 3: is true for Saint John's.

505
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 4: They were not good early.

506
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 3: They lost essentially every marquee out of conference game. They

507
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 3: had Iowa State, Alabama, Auburn, Kentucky. Best out of conference

508
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 3: win probably a Balor team which ended up being terrible,

509
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 3: an Old Miss team that, despite their running the SEC tournament,

510
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 3: ended up being below five hundred. So they really don't

511
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 3: have much of an out of conference resume. And the

512
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 3: Big East is going to be a three bid league,

513
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,200
Speaker 3: and they did have two wins over Yukon, but again,

514
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 3: it just didn't allow them to really accumulate a bunch

515
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 3: of big wins. Once conference play started. I think they'll

516
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,880
Speaker 3: be dinged for it, and probably justifiably given the full

517
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 3: body of workover.

518
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 2: They were dinged throughout. As he said, they were considered

519
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,199
Speaker 2: a five really over this last week or so, and

520
00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 2: even as they progressed through the bracket, the Big East

521
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 2: Tournament wasn't. The wins in that tournament weren't helping them

522
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:43,239
Speaker 2: move up. But when you are regular season champs and

523
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,040
Speaker 2: conference champions, I do think I agree with that because

524
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 2: they were consistently a five, I think they end up

525
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 2: moving up to the four line. What about Wisconsin maybe

526
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 2: the most I don't want to say Jekyll and Hyde,

527
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 2: but this team has shown that they can beat anyone.

528
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 2: They also have shown that they can have troubles maybe

529
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 2: when they don't need to. They let Washington back into

530
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 2: the game. Just in this Big Ten Tournament, in one

531
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:13,640
Speaker 2: of the early round games, Wisconsin's sitting there. You're gonna

532
00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 2: have a string of Big Ten teams, as I mentioned earlier,

533
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 2: at around the three seed, once you get past Michigan,

534
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 2: because you're gonna have Michigan State, you're gonna have this

535
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 2: Purdue team, You're gonna have Illinois, You're gonna have Nebraska.

536
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 2: When you go to the next sort of bit, where

537
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,760
Speaker 2: do you put Wisconsin.

538
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 3: Probably on that five line as well. I think certainly

539
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 3: if they had one on Saturday they played Michigan, I

540
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,639
Speaker 3: would think you would have to move them up. Great

541
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,919
Speaker 3: regular season wins at Michigan, Michigan only had two losses

542
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:47,040
Speaker 3: coming into today. They also had at Illinois. They had

543
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,639
Speaker 3: at Purdue on Senior Day. So the two teams that

544
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 3: just played for a Big Ten title, they beat both

545
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 3: of them on the road. But to your point, some

546
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,760
Speaker 3: kind of weird wins, weird losses. Excuse me along the

547
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 3: way as well. They're the cliche, but I think it's

548
00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:03,560
Speaker 3: fair of like just the type of team that you

549
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 3: just do not want to play come in see a

550
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 3: tournament time because those two guards, Nick Boyd and John

551
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 3: Blackwell are really good.

552
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:13,880
Speaker 2: Eight quad one wins. But in the NAT Wisconsin entering

553
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 2: the day was twenty fifth. And do you say WOB

554
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 2: or do you say web when talking about wins above bubble?

555
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 3: I say WOB, But I do understand the argument for Webb.

556
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,479
Speaker 3: It's wins above bubble WAB.

557
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 2: And which is the metric that people feel the committee

558
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 2: will really rely heavily on. Yes, I'm trying to say,

559
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,640
Speaker 2: and Wisconsin right now would be in that five seed

560
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:43,000
Speaker 2: range because of their their WOB. I would just rather

561
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:43,920
Speaker 2: say WOB.

562
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 4: Than what I do too. See that's exactly how I finding.

563
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 2: Out worldwide WOB, and so that ends up messing with

564
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:50,919
Speaker 2: it all right, Moving on? I got another question, OK,

565
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,240
Speaker 2: can Arkansas get to a three seed?

566
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 3: I don't think so, and I think it's solely because

567
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 3: they played on Sunday, And I just find it hard

568
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 3: to believe that the committee is going to factor in

569
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,440
Speaker 3: what will be another quad one win. They have a

570
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 3: good resume, though they beat Texas Tech in the out

571
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 3: of conference when Texas Tech was at full strength. They

572
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 3: beat Louisville in the out of conference when Louisville was

573
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:15,600
Speaker 3: playing well, and then of course SEC two wins over Vandy,

574
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:20,399
Speaker 3: beat Tennessee, beat Alburn, They split with Auburn or throughout

575
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 3: the season and so did not be Floord. I'm trying

576
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 3: to think off the top of my head, did not

577
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 3: beat Alabama, But I think again, like Saint John's, I

578
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:33,439
Speaker 3: think they will be playing better than their seeding. And

579
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 3: if you watch the SEC Tournament Championship on Sunday, Darius

580
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 3: Acuff thirty points, eleven assists. That's the Kemba Walker Walter

581
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 3: Clayton type guy that could carry a team on their backs.

582
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 3: I think there's even one Seeds that kind of hope

583
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:47,160
Speaker 3: that they fall, that they get up to a three

584
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 3: line to avoid them for one more round as opposed

585
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,840
Speaker 3: to the sweet sixteen. Hypothetically, if everybody advances.

586
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 2: I don't disagree with that. He's Aaron Torres. I'm Dan Byer.

587
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,880
Speaker 2: There is one remaining question. We'll get that after Mancy

588
00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 2: Belanos gives us the latest, including two schools. Well, we

589
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 2: knew one was going to the dance anyway, but two

590
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,960
Speaker 2: schools just punched their tickets and Aaron, I hate to

591
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 2: say it, Championship week for the men over all games. No, yes,

592
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 2: MANSI take it away.

593
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,360
Speaker 8: Listening to you guys, I've been I feel like last

594
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,680
Speaker 8: couple of years with you guys on the Sunday and.

595
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 4: Whenever you guys get into this.

596
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 8: It is so fun to watch you both nerd out

597
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 8: in a language that I don't understand.

598
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:32,560
Speaker 4: I told you it's so good.

599
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 3: Dan came on our show last night and I told him,

600
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 3: I said, I just get to come in, like when

601
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:39,959
Speaker 3: the bracket actually comes out, I get to just come

602
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 3: in spit out takes he's giving the teams.

603
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,040
Speaker 4: This guy puts so much work in it.

604
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 3: I hope the audience when the bracket comes out at

605
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 3: six pm Eastern appreciates it because I just get to

606
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 3: come in to be like Louisville. They suck, they're getting upset,

607
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 3: and Dan's the one that's like seven quad one wins

608
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: acc rote like he puts in so much work.

609
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 2: I'm just what it says here, that's what. But he's

610
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 2: the real information man.

611
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 8: Both of you together, it's so fun to watch and to.

612
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 3: Listen really quick while I'm here. Thank you to Kerrie

613
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,520
Speaker 3: Rhoades for giving me the seed. I should give him

614
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 3: a quick shout out as well. I love Carrie and

615
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 3: he always crushes during this time slot, so I appreciate

616
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 3: him giving me the seed of since.

617
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 2: Carrie of the Day. Obvi, he's getting ready for bed

618
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 2: now because he likes me absolutely, So he's probably going

619
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:18,840
Speaker 2: to bed at three.

620
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,920

694
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 2: one game right, complete carnage. But that was, of course

695
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 2: because I didn't believe in the Indiana Hoosiers. And who's

696
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 2: the fool for doing that?

697
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 4: I was gonna say?

698
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 3: I did remember driving in today your we did a

699
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 3: segment right before New Year's because it was New Year's

700
00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 3: Day of why there's zero percent chance Indiana will win?

701
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:56,240
Speaker 2: That was zero point zero percent. I even tried to

702
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 2: get snarky with it by adding a point zero percent

703
00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 2: chance egg on my face.

704
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,200
Speaker 4: I had Georgia, So I mean, hey, we want and done.

705
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:05,000
Speaker 4: I want much better.

706
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,439
Speaker 2: Indiana probably not smiling today as the Hoosiers are likely

707
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 2: on the outside looking in. What about the Miami of

708
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:15,959
Speaker 2: Ohio RedHawks. It's our final question are they in or out?

709
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,280

737
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 2: are we on the same same plane? I joined you

738
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,759
Speaker 2: and Jason Martin last night. I said, I think that

739
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,719
Speaker 2: Miami of Ohio is in. I actually think that they're

740
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 2: comfortably in. I don't think that they need to sweat,

741
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 2: but I also think that the committee needs to put

742
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: them in in Dayton. Where are you on the mid

743
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:03,360
Speaker 2: Miami of Ohio, the once beaten RedHawks.

744
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 3: So I told this to Jason last night, is that

745
00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,360
Speaker 3: I think you can look at a million analytics. I

746
00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,280
Speaker 3: think this is one where I'm looking at the human

747
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 3: element of this, and two things immediately jump out to

748
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 3: Miami of Ohio. One, there is a selection chair that

749
00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 3: is going to have to do a million interviews when

750
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 3: this bracket comes out, and the only question he will

751
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 3: be asked is how could you leave out Miami of Ohio.

752
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 3: And I don't know that, even as you know, this

753
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,560
Speaker 3: is a television product, I don't know that they want

754
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,520
Speaker 3: that to overshadow everything else. Even though there's some metrics

755
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,560
Speaker 3: that don't favor them, they're all in administration. I think

756
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,239
Speaker 3: they all understand that at some point, being thirty one

757
00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,160
Speaker 3: to ohero entering your conference tournament has to matter. And

758
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,800
Speaker 3: then you know, I also look at it from another

759
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:54,239
Speaker 3: human element perspective of it then becomes the next The

760
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:57,759
Speaker 3: first question that the committee chair is then asked is

761
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:00,560
Speaker 3: what is the point of the regular seat? And I

762
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,640
Speaker 3: don't think you want the message coming out of the

763
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:07,279
Speaker 3: selection show to be for eighty percent of college basketball.

764
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 3: Ninety percent of college basketball that's not in the Power conferences.

765
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:11,320
Speaker 4: Oh it doesn't.

766
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 3: It actually doesn't, because we're told November first to you know,

767
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:19,160
Speaker 3: March fifteenth, everything matters, And if you left out Miami

768
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:21,759
Speaker 3: of Ohio, you would essentially say that nothing matters until

769
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:23,800
Speaker 3: the first day of the conference tournament for about ninety

770
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:26,439
Speaker 3: percent of college basketball. And I just don't think that's

771
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 3: a message the committee wants to send. I think they're

772
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 3: in to your point, Dayton seems to make the most

773
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 3: sense because certainly there will be a lot of people

774
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 3: that want to tune in too watch and plays.

775
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's a great opportunity. And like I

776
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,520
Speaker 2: look at it this way. There there's maybe no bigger

777
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:47,680
Speaker 2: university school in college athletics than the University of Texas.

778
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,960
Speaker 2: Sure Texas is sitting there on the bubble. What a

779
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 2: way to put Texas against Miami of Ohio. Like there's

780
00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,760
Speaker 2: there's SMUs on the bubble as well. They could possibly

781
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,960
Speaker 2: be a team that gets in that you could play.

782
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:07,719
Speaker 2: But to have just those opposites against each other and

783
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 2: to have them match up that way, I just think

784
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,359
Speaker 2: is must see TV and if Miami of Ohio gets

785
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 2: in the tournament, I think that their game on Thursday

786
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 2: or Friday would be much more entertaining and have much

787
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 2: more value than in Auburn being in. But if you

788
00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 2: put it in that Tuesday night and then you say

789
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 2: to them, okay, prove your way of being in. And

790
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,359
Speaker 2: I also think Aaron in a way where we think

791
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 2: that we're probably on the verge of expansion of this tournament.

792
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:39,839
Speaker 2: Unfortunately for those who who want it, this year wasn't

793
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 2: great for that because everybody who seemed to be on

794
00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 2: the bubble or had any chance didn't do anything to

795
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 2: make a case for themselves to be in. So maybe

796
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:50,719
Speaker 2: we're just adding a bunch of extras. But when you

797
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 2: look at how this could go, the NCAA tournament for

798
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 2: so long is tried to stay away from the play

799
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:01,839
Speaker 2: in games phrase first full or opening round. Heck, at

800
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 2: one point they called this the first round and it's

801
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 2: the nat rounds of second and third round, just to

802
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:09,879
Speaker 2: try to get away from the obvious, to say, hey,

803
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:12,320
Speaker 2: this isn't a play in tournament. You're in the tournament.

804
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 2: But realistically, if you're expanding to seventy two and seventy six.

805
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:17,520
Speaker 2: It's kind of what it is and kind of what

806
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 2: we're gonna look at and view it as. So this

807
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,799
Speaker 2: could be the opening of that door as well. So

808
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 2: when the brackets are announced in again coming up in

809
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 2: eight minutes, and I think we're gonna find out sooner

810
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 2: rather than later about Miami of Ohio. I think that

811
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 2: this provides that opportunity. Maybe it'll be the last time

812
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 2: we have a sixty eight school bracket. But when you

813
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 2: talk about playing yourself into the tournament, here's Miami of

814
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 2: Ohio's opportunity and.

815
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,840
Speaker 3: Really quick, you and I will be in for Cavino

816
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,359
Speaker 3: and rich on Thursday and Friday. I will say this,

817
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 3: if Miami gets to day in and they lose, or

818
00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 3: if they get into the main bracket and lose on

819
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 3: Thursday or Friday, that is an independent conversation of whether

820
00:39:57,960 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 3: they should have been in or not. Once they get in,

821
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 3: and I think they will be in, I don't care

822
00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 3: if they lose by one hundred. It doesn't mean that

823
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:09,279
Speaker 3: a fourteen loss. Indiana, whoever is, who ever is left out,

824
00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,560
Speaker 3: does not It does not mean that they should have

825
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 3: been in. Over Miami. I think they get in. But again,

826
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,520
Speaker 3: what they do once they get there shouldn't be reflective

827
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 3: on if they deserve to be there or not. As

828
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,720
Speaker 3: a five point fifty three Eastern time on Sunday.

829
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 2: Some of the bubble schools that are patiently I should

830
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:32,560
Speaker 2: maybe they're not patiently nervously waiting for these brackets to

831
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:41,240
Speaker 2: be released mentioned SMU Santa Clara, Missouri, Texas mention them Oklahoma, Auburn,

832
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:45,440
Speaker 2: San Diego State, New Mexico, Indiana. That's about the group

833
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 2: that you've got of teams that are sitting in the

834
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 2: bubble that it could go maybe either way. From all

835
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 2: of the information and intel that I've gathered in various

836
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:58,360
Speaker 2: bracketologies and the different information, I think it's going to

837
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 2: be a tough day for Oklahoma, Auburn, Indiana and those brands.

838
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,799
Speaker 2: I think you're gonna see Miami of Ohio in, think

839
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 2: you're gonna see Santa Clara SMU in. But we'll find

840
00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:11,040
Speaker 2: out in a matter of minutes.

841
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 3: Aeron Torres, Yeah, I would just say committee said that

842

00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:22,480

864
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:24,279

Speaker 2: their opponent will be playing, No, it will be the

00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:48,880
Speaker 2: Sienna Saints. Sienna from the Metro Atlantic Atletic Conference. Sienna

871
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:52,480
Speaker 2: comes in as the sixteen seed. They will play Thursday

872
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:56,280
Speaker 2: again in Greenville, South Carolina. Also in Greenville, South Carolina,

873
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 2: the eight to nine matchup Ohio State. The buck guys

874
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,160
Speaker 2: get in Bruce Thornton and Creue getting hot at the

875
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:05,200
Speaker 2: end of the year. Ohio State is the eighth seed

876
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,879
Speaker 2: on Thursday, they will be facing number nine. I've seen

877
00:43:08,920 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 2: a lot of oh TCU. I was also gonna say

878
00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:14,239
Speaker 2: a school, but I didn't want to confuse people, so

879
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 2: I shut up TCU from the Big twelve in an

880
00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:21,280
Speaker 2: eight to nine matchup. Your five to twelve first question

881
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:26,000
Speaker 2: answered Saint John's playing Friday in San Diego, so across

882
00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 2: country trip for the Saint John's Red Storm, winners of

883
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 2: the Big East regular season and winners of the conference tournament.

884
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,560
Speaker 2: They are a five seed in the East region going

885
00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:40,240
Speaker 2: up against a twelve seed. This is where we're seeing

886
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:43,400
Speaker 2: some of the higher automatic bids. Northern Iowa who won

887
00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 2: the Missouri Valley, but Saint John's did not make it

888
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 2: up to the four line locked into that five line erin.

889
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,840
Speaker 3: That is a quick turnaround to be in San Diego

890
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 3: on Friday, then potentially, if they are to advance, have

891
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:56,840
Speaker 3: to then be back on the East Coast for the

892
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:58,239
Speaker 3: second weekend the four.

893
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,920
Speaker 2: To thirteen matchup, also in San Diego coming up on Friday.

894
00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 2: Kansas is the four seed. Kansas. Remember I want to

895
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:09,200
Speaker 2: talk about those Marquis regions. I think they hit us

896
00:44:09,239 --> 00:44:11,840
Speaker 2: with it right off the bat. Kansas the four seed

897
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,279
Speaker 2: going up against the cal Baptist Lancers who got the

898
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 2: final bid of last night, which was early morning in

899
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 2: some parts. Cal Baptist winners of the whack. They are

900
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:24,520
Speaker 2: the thirteen seed. Now let's go to Thursday Saturday games

901
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,000

1000
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:46,439
Speaker 3: Seed couple thoughts here, one you, know we spent all

1001
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:50,720
Speaker 3: this time last segment talking about these games don't? Matter

1002
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 3: will Either perdue was slotted in as a two seed

1003
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:57,120
Speaker 3: and got a lot of advantages before they played and

1004
00:49:57,120 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 3: Beat michigan, today or they just you, know or things

1005
00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:03,960
Speaker 3: just worked out very nicely for them and the committee

1006
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:07,960
Speaker 3: did factor in the. WIN i gotta, say, though it's

1007
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,400
Speaker 3: gonna be hard for me to find anybody who got

1008
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:15,319
Speaker 3: more screwed Than arkansas playing on A sunday In nashville

1009
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:19,480
Speaker 3: having to fly out To portland and play On, thursday

1010
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 3: and then if they are to advance out of the following,

1011
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:26,200
Speaker 3: weekend has to go back to The West coast as

1012
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:28,799
Speaker 3: part of The West, regional where they would have to

1013
00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:32,360
Speaker 3: Face arizona In San. Jose which is bad. ENOUGH i,

1014
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:35,160
Speaker 3: mean that is just a, tough, tough tough. Draw the

1015
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,719
Speaker 3: counter to that, is no one got a better advantage

1016
00:50:38,719 --> 00:50:42,920
Speaker 3: Than missouri who gets to play In Saint louis as

1017
00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:46,040
Speaker 3: a ten. Seed you, know if You're Jay lucas In,

1018
00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 3: miami how are you feeling about that right? Now not

1019
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 3: too good. Exactly it drives me crazy every year we

1020
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 3: get stuff like. This are there are some things that

1021
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:59,080
Speaker 3: you can, avoid and it feels like when certain things are,

1022
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:04,320
Speaker 3: unavoidable they will try to benefit the opponent as opposed

1023
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:05,720
Speaker 3: the higher.

1024
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:06,560
Speaker 2: Opponent that's WHAT i.

1025
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:06,680
Speaker 7: Know.

1026
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:10,560
Speaker 2: Seed, yeah the, Protection so as a seventh, seed you

1027
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,799
Speaker 2: get no protection from. Anything so you have a ten

1028
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:16,080
Speaker 2: seed basically playing a home game In Saint.

1029
00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:20,200
Speaker 3: Louis, yeah you, know, listen in the grand scheme of

1030
00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:21,840
Speaker 3: what is going to come out of this, bracket it

1031
00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:25,399
Speaker 3: isn't the biggest. Story i'm just never in favor of

1032
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:29,799
Speaker 3: an easily avoidable home fielded home court. Advantage excuse me

1033
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:32,480
Speaker 3: for a lower seeded. Team another, bracket by the, way

1034
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:35,360
Speaker 3: that's just absolutely. Stacked, arkansas one of the hottest teams

1035
00:51:35,360 --> 00:51:37,399
Speaker 3: in the, country could face one of the hottest teams

1036
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:41,080
Speaker 3: in the country In. Wisconsin winner would hypothetically have to Play.

1037
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:44,319
Speaker 3: Arizona there's just a lot going on in this.

1038
00:51:44,360 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 2: Bracket so in reviewing a lot of the bracketology and

1039
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 2: seeing what we had seen leading up to this and

1040
00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:53,239
Speaker 2: the hundreds of bracketologies that are out, there the thing

1041
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:55,680
Speaker 2: that stood out to me was The missouri. Angle Was

1042
00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:58,839
Speaker 2: missouri was safely in as a ten. Seed now they

1043
00:51:58,840 --> 00:52:01,880
Speaker 2: may have been, borderline but there were a lot of

1044
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:05,280
Speaker 2: a lot of outlets that Had missouri as a candidate

1045
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:09,000
Speaker 2: for a first four game In. DAYTON Nc state was the.

1046
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 2: OPPOSITE i think a lot more people AT Nc state

1047
00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 2: into the field safely into the field as a ten.

1048
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 2: Seed they're now playing a first four game Against texas

1049
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,280
Speaker 2: In dayton coming up On. Tuesday.

1050
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, no it's just it's a lot to process in

1051
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:28,399
Speaker 3: real time, here and that is an intriguing matchup out

1052
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:31,040
Speaker 3: there In, dayton and it just shows you the. BUBBLE

1053
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:32,960
Speaker 3: i think it just shows more than, anything the bubble

1054
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:36,759
Speaker 3: much more fluid maybe than we realized in real. Time

1055
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:40,520
Speaker 3: and it we know this doing this year over, year

1056
00:52:40,520 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 3: but you always forget in the. Moment it's always those

1057
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:45,320
Speaker 3: those trips to date in a little bit more fluid

1058
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 3: than maybe we realize.

1059
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 2: It, Really i'm gonna say something, else and we know

1060
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:52,479
Speaker 2: that these sites are done in. Advance but essentially what

1061
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:55,920
Speaker 2: tries they try to. Do THE ncaa tries to do

1062
00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 2: is have two sites out west for the first and

1063
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:04,799
Speaker 2: second run, games and then maybe Two midwest sites if you,

1064
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:08,560
Speaker 2: will two sites in The northeast and two sites in

1065
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 2: The south if you can maneuver. It, again the sites

1066
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 2: this year Were tampa And, Greenville South, Carolina buffalo And,

1067
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:21,879
Speaker 2: Philadelphia Saint louis And Oklahoma city And portland And San.

1068
00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:26,239
Speaker 2: Diego and a year after, year we don't have Enough

1069
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:30,759
Speaker 2: West coast teams Unless gonzaga is awesome And arizona OR

1070
00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,719
Speaker 2: ucla end up being that top seed to take a

1071
00:53:33,719 --> 00:53:36,839
Speaker 2: lot of those top regions as well. Erin so you're

1072
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 2: seeing teams being shipped out the far away places where

1073
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:43,719
Speaker 2: if you could do the bracket differently AND i know

1074
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:47,560
Speaker 2: that there are some, limitations But arkansas And wisconsin get no,

1075
00:53:47,600 --> 00:53:50,560
Speaker 2: protection get no, advantages and they're going to be shipped

1076
00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:54,239
Speaker 2: out To. Portland but the highest seated team in That

1077
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:58,680
Speaker 2: portland regional is a third seed In. Gonzaga and so you,

1078
00:53:58,719 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 2: know maybe the site it's different when you can play

1079
00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:02,520
Speaker 2: it In, denver and different when you can play it

1080
00:54:02,600 --> 00:54:05,160
Speaker 2: In Salt Lake city when you're way west coast Like

1081
00:54:05,200 --> 00:54:08,239
Speaker 2: portland And San diego. Are it's a different. Story all,

1082
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 2: right let's get to The midwest region bracket being released

1083

1132
00:56:51,120 --> 00:56:54,000
Speaker 2: Size of the teams they could have, drawn that isn't

1133
00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,480

Speaker 3: seed playing In Saint, louis coming up On friday Against Santa.

1143
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 3: Clara So Santa clara gets into the field as an

1144
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 3: at large. Bid made it to The West Coast conference,

1145

1149
00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 3: will be playing In Saint, louis and that makes sense

1150
00:57:56,920 --> 00:57:59,720
Speaker 3: as The cyclones are twenty seven and, seven gets some

1151
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 3: home cooking as the second. Seed they obviously couldn't be

1152
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 3: put in the same region As arizona as they are conference.

1153
00:58:06,800 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 3: Foes you don't match up the one and two from

1154
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:12,440
Speaker 3: the same. Conference next up For Iowa state Is Tennessee,

1155
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:16,760
Speaker 3: state who got the first automatic. Bed, well they technically

1156
00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 3: did because we had we had The Mercy hurst.

1157
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:25,360
Speaker 2: Situation yes WITH. Liu But Tennessee state is the fifteen

1158
00:58:25,440 --> 00:58:29,640
Speaker 2: seed coming out of THE. Ovc they are in the

1159
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:32,919
Speaker 2: tournament as a fifteen seed taking On Iowa state In Saint.

1160
00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,920
Speaker 3: LOUIS a couple thoughts in. Addition first of, all very

1161
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:39,000
Speaker 3: advantageous draw From. Michigan we know that they like to

1162
00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 3: play inside with those three, Bigs Texas tech WITHOUT. Jt,

1163
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:46,200
Speaker 3: topp and as you, Said, alabama clearly size was an

1164
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:48,400
Speaker 3: issue At. Alabama we saw who they brought back in

1165
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:51,000
Speaker 3: the middle of the, season bottom half of the. Bracket Dan,

1166
00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:53,080
Speaker 3: Byre i'm just going to tell you right, Now Santa

1167
00:58:53,120 --> 00:58:57,200
Speaker 3: clara a crazy athletic. Team for a team of their,

1168
00:58:57,280 --> 00:59:01,640
Speaker 3: CALIBER i think they can Give kentucky trouble in round.

1169
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,000
Speaker 3: ONE i thought with the right Draw kentucky could make

1170
00:59:05,040 --> 00:59:07,960
Speaker 3: some major. MOVES i think that's not a good draw at,

1171
00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:11,240
Speaker 3: all Getting Santa clara in round, One Iowa state in

1172
00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:12,479
Speaker 3: potentially the round of thirty.

1173
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:15,640
Speaker 2: Two, again it's A midwest region that will funnel Through

1174
00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 2: chicago on its way to the final. Four So Iowa.

1175
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 2: State if you can make it that, far can go

1176
00:59:22,480 --> 00:59:25,600
Speaker 2: to down To Saint, louis all over To, chicago and

1177
00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 2: then if they can make it to the final, four

1178
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:29,880
Speaker 2: over To. Indianapolis The cyclones wouldn't have to do a

1179
00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,640
Speaker 2: lot of travel if they can continue to. Win The

1180
00:59:32,680 --> 00:59:36,600
Speaker 2: miami Of ohio peace obviously. Significant when we saw The

1181
00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:40,479
Speaker 2: TEXAS Nc state matchup in the first, four you knew

1182
00:59:40,520 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 2: that there was only going to be some opportunities AND

1183
00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:45,840
Speaker 2: i just felt like it was a television opportunity For

1184
00:59:45,920 --> 00:59:48,720
Speaker 2: miami Of ohio to prove themselves and now they'll be

1185
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:51,919
Speaker 2: able to do that AGAINST. Smu by the, way we've

1186
00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 2: got one more region to. Go things not looking good For,

1187
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:59,520
Speaker 2: Auburn San Diego, State, oklahoma Or indiana in this, case

1188
00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 2: especially Actually oklahoma because them they In texas were very,

1189
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,120
Speaker 2: close and to know That texas got one of the

1190
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:09,960
Speaker 2: final four bids bad news for The sooners and if

1191
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 2: they had any, Hopes i'm not sure how realistic their hopes,

1192
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:15,040
Speaker 2: were but they at least were on the bubble of

1193
01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:17,160
Speaker 2: possibly making it to THIS ncaa.

1194
01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:20,440
Speaker 4: Tournament no, doubt bubble is shrinking very. Quickly.

1195
01:00:20,520 --> 01:00:23,760
Speaker 3: OKLAHOMA i Think auburn two you, know we mentioned it

1196
01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:26,960
Speaker 3: in the lead into this. Show is the idea that

1197
01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:31,560
Speaker 3: you know is that the committee kind of publicly said

1198
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 3: that all but one at large team was essentially decided

1199
01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:39,080
Speaker 3: as of yesterday, Afternoon so you knew it was a

1200
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:39,600
Speaker 3: bad sign For.

1201
01:00:39,640 --> 01:00:40,960
Speaker 4: AUBURN i think it gets worse from.

1202
01:00:41,000 --> 01:00:43,400
Speaker 2: Here He's Aaron. Torres I'm Dan. Byer it's our seventh

1335
01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:44,080
Speaker 3: west compared to The south and The. Midwest you, know

1336
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 3: it's hard to see like With, Florida it's hard to

1337
01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 3: see any of those teams really giving them a challenge

1338
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:53,080

01:10:09,920 --> 01:10:13,320
Speaker 2: lose nine straight conference games Like oklahoma, did yeah you.

1385
01:10:13,360 --> 01:10:17,040
Speaker 2: Should you shouldn't even ban from the tournament that? Year not.

1386
01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:20,120
Speaker 2: Eligible what's what? Happened there was a point where they

1387
01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:21,000
Speaker 2: lost nine in a.

1388
01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 3: Row what if an in arena popcorn fire it starts

1389
01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:26,439
Speaker 3: a winning, Streak does that offset that?

1390
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,120
Speaker 2: Rule or how does? That that has?

1391
01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:31,879

1392
01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:34,840
Speaker 3: popcorn machine just. Exploded then they couldn't lose.

1394
01:10:38,600 --> 01:10:41,720
Speaker 2: what could have Been oklahoma on the outside looking? In,

1395
01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:44,280
Speaker 2: now the question is is how many of those schools

1396
01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:48,040
Speaker 2: will accept postseason bids to other tournaments because that has

1397
01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:49,360

1398
01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:52,000
Speaker 3: So, yeah it'll be interesting really. Quick you, Know Virginia

1451
01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:37,280
Speaker 4: Smu, yeah a couple. Things one credit to.

01:13:37,360 --> 01:13:39,800
Speaker 3: YOU i host for people who are not familiar with,

1453
01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:43,040
Speaker 3: me Every, saturday eleven Pm eastern to two. Am you

1454
01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:46,280
Speaker 3: came on our show to preview this show and you,

1455
01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:48,519
Speaker 3: said not only did you Think miami Of ohio would be,

1456
01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:51,280
Speaker 3: in but they would be In. DAYTON i bring that

1457
01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:53,880
Speaker 3: up to say that credit to. You, also WHAT i

1458
01:13:53,960 --> 01:13:56,960
Speaker 3: will say is that that is not the worst possible

1459
01:13:57,000 --> 01:14:00,879
Speaker 3: matchup for The miami Of Ohio RedHawks WITH. SMU. Smu

1460
01:14:00,920 --> 01:14:03,160
Speaker 3: for people who haven't watched. Them they're a very guard heavy,

1461
01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:06,280
Speaker 3: team maybe had actually the best backcourt in THE. Acc

1462
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:10,080
Speaker 3: and so the teams That miami Of ohio was going

1463
01:14:10,120 --> 01:14:11,960
Speaker 3: to struggle with were the ones that were, big that

1464
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:12,920
Speaker 3: were very good on the.

1465
01:14:12,960 --> 01:14:15,240
Speaker 4: Glass that is not WHO smu.

1466
01:14:15,520 --> 01:14:18,360
Speaker 3: Is you, know we'll see what the point spreads dictate

1467
01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:20,719
Speaker 3: as far as What vegas thinks the game will actually

1468
01:14:20,760 --> 01:14:23,599
Speaker 3: look like once it's. Played but of all the teams

1469
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:26,720
Speaker 3: they could have, GOTTEN i think that's actually probably the

1470
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:28,080
Speaker 3: best matchup they could have asked.

1471
01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:30,000
Speaker 2: FOR i think that there was a, scenario and this

1472
01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:33,080
Speaker 2: may have Been, shenanigans and this may have been dirty,

1473
01:14:33,120 --> 01:14:36,919
Speaker 2: pool but if those who are in favor of tournament

1474
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:41,559
Speaker 2: expansion could have Used miami Of ohio as their own

1475
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:44,040
Speaker 2: sort of ploy and their own sort of, tool and

1476
01:14:44,080 --> 01:14:46,200
Speaker 2: something we talked a bit earlier in the, show but

1477
01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:49,679
Speaker 2: if you Left miami Of ohio out for those that want,

1478
01:14:49,840 --> 01:14:52,960
Speaker 2: expansion you could, say, hey an expanded, tournament they would

1479
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:57,400
Speaker 2: they they'd safely be in. Right they didn't do, that

1480
01:14:57,520 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 2: And i'm glad AND i think that a lot of

1481
01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:01,840
Speaker 2: us would have maybe of Colled, shenanigan's especially if it

1482
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:05,000
Speaker 2: was An oklahoma team that got. In but when you

1483
01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:07,599
Speaker 2: now look at when we talk about expanding the, Tournament,

1484
01:15:07,640 --> 01:15:10,160
Speaker 2: aaron and we look at the four schools that were

1485
01:15:10,160 --> 01:15:13,080
Speaker 2: the first four, out AND i think you could Add

1486
01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:16,840
Speaker 2: New mexico and you could add a cal to this

1487
01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:20,800
Speaker 2: list as. Well when we're talking about schools that are

1488
01:15:21,040 --> 01:15:24,600
Speaker 2: when we're talking about expanding a, tournament they're not expanding

1489
01:15:24,600 --> 01:15:27,400
Speaker 2: it for the possibility that a team may go thirty

1490
01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:31,040
Speaker 2: one to. One they're expanding it for schools like this

1491
01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:34,600
Speaker 2: to get into the. Tournament and SO i don't know

1492
01:15:34,600 --> 01:15:37,240
Speaker 2: IF i need to give them a pad on the.

1493
01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,120
Speaker 2: Back i'm just glad it didn't happen because they Now

1494
01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:42,599
Speaker 2: i'm looking back at, them, like, yeah they definitely they

1495
01:15:42,640 --> 01:15:45,240
Speaker 2: could have if that was their agenda in trying to

1496
01:15:45,280 --> 01:15:48,679
Speaker 2: expand the. Tournament they could have Left miami Of ohio

1497
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:51,920
Speaker 2: out may have been more popular with some of the bigger,

1498
01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:54,519
Speaker 2: conferences but they. Didn't they allowed them to get in.

1499
01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:59,519
Speaker 2: Again no quad one games, period but, still when you

1500
01:15:59,560 --> 01:16:01,639
Speaker 2: win thirty one games and you lose your first one

1501
01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:04,840
Speaker 2: in Early, march that's tough to. Do So i'm glad the.

1502
01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:07,240
Speaker 2: Committee i'm glad the committee Chose miami Of.

1503
01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:08,519
Speaker 4: Ohio, yeah a couple.

1504
01:16:08,600 --> 01:16:11,400
Speaker 3: Things ONE i will say for people who are you,

1505
01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:13,599
Speaker 3: know kind of saw the story but didn't really follow,

1506
01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:16,000
Speaker 3: It the argument is they didn't play a Single power

1507
01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:19,760
Speaker 3: conference team all. Year the counter argument From miami is

1508
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:23,280
Speaker 3: that they tried to schedule just about Every power conference out.

1509
01:16:23,320 --> 01:16:26,760
Speaker 3: There there's actually a freedom of information request done by

1510
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:31,120
Speaker 3: one of these independent website blog substack, things and they

1511
01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:34,719
Speaker 3: basically found out it was quite literally dozens of schools

1512
01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,720
Speaker 3: that they reached out to trying to get them on the.

1513
01:16:36,760 --> 01:16:39,200
Speaker 3: Schedule and what you have to for people who don't

1514
01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:42,479
Speaker 3: follow it understand is that this is not like college,

1515
01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:45,240
Speaker 3: football where games are scheduled twenty years in. Advance the

1516
01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:50,360
Speaker 3: schedules are done largely after the, season once the rosters

1517
01:16:50,400 --> 01:16:53,840
Speaker 3: are put, together and teams will very much look at

1518
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:55,600
Speaker 3: a school Like miami Of ohio and, say they were

1519
01:16:55,600 --> 01:16:57,880
Speaker 3: pretty good last year and they're bringing back a bunch of.

1520
01:16:57,880 --> 01:17:00,720
Speaker 3: Teams it doesn't benefit us to play The miami Of

1521
01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:03,639
Speaker 3: ohio did what they could to get those type teams

1522
01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:06,040
Speaker 3: on the. Schedule so to your, Point, dan very glad

1523
01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:06,439
Speaker 3: to see them.

1524
01:17:06,479 --> 01:17:09,280
Speaker 2: In it's. Interesting we're gonna hear From Keith, gill the

1525
01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:12,920
Speaker 2: chairperson the commissioner of The Sun Belt conference as well

1526
01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:17,759
Speaker 2: AS cbs spoke with, him had various questions about why

1527
01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:21,320
Speaker 2: certain decisions were, made AND i thought it was interesting

1528
01:17:22,200 --> 01:17:28,000
Speaker 2: and just in our business era and of. BROADCASTING cbs

1529
01:17:28,040 --> 01:17:33,280
Speaker 2: Had Bruce pearl ask what were the differences in the

1530
01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:35,840
Speaker 2: teams that got in on the, bubble the last four

1531
01:17:35,920 --> 01:17:38,560
Speaker 2: in and the last four? Out what were the metrics

1532
01:17:38,600 --> 01:17:43,040
Speaker 2: that were? Used because obviously his Son Stephen pearl and

1533
01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:46,120
Speaker 2: The Auburn tigers didn't make it into THE ncaa. Tournament

1534
01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:49,720
Speaker 2: most people had a problem with the sixteen losses of

1535
01:17:49,800 --> 01:17:52,920
Speaker 2: seventeen and, sixteen and when you're seven and eleven in a,

1536
01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:55,200
Speaker 2: conference and this kind of goes along with My oklahoma

1537
01:17:55,240 --> 01:17:59,519
Speaker 2: thing as. WELL i just it's really really tough to

1538
01:17:59,720 --> 01:18:04,000
Speaker 2: just five when you've got other options out there that

1539
01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:06,679
Speaker 2: are different and. Unique AND i think that's What miami

1540
01:18:06,720 --> 01:18:07,200
Speaker 2: Of ohio.

1541
01:18:07,240 --> 01:18:09,720
Speaker 3: Presented, yeah and WHAT i would say a couple of.

1542
01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:11,720
Speaker 3: Things by the, way we're trying to do this in real.

1543
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:14,799
Speaker 3: Time we don't have. Volume, apparently according To Chris veanini

1544
01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:17,600
Speaker 3: from The Athletic Keith gil did say That miami Of

1545
01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:20,040
Speaker 3: ohio was not the last team, in so we'll monitor

1546
01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:22,120
Speaker 3: for that sound to try to clarify that as. Well,

1547
01:18:23,439 --> 01:18:26,840
Speaker 3: yeah and it's JUST i just you look at at

1548
01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:31,639
Speaker 3: how everything broke for them thirty one and. One they

1549
01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:34,240
Speaker 3: deserve to be. In and AS i, said you know

1550
01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:36,400
Speaker 3: earlier in the, show for people who weren't with us

1551
01:18:36,439 --> 01:18:39,240
Speaker 3: before the bracket came, out what happens once they get

1552
01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:42,759
Speaker 3: to date, in what happens once they once they match

1553
01:18:42,840 --> 01:18:46,639
Speaker 3: up WITH smu is independent of what whether they should

1554
01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:47,160
Speaker 3: have been in or.

1555
01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:50,000
Speaker 4: Not the thing with is to switch back To alburn

1556
01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:50,400
Speaker 4: for half a.

1557
01:18:50,439 --> 01:18:55,439
Speaker 3: SECOND i wasn't as upset If auburn would have been,

1558
01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:58,439
Speaker 3: in assuming it wasn't Over miami Of. Ohio because people

1559
01:18:58,640 --> 01:19:01,519
Speaker 3: complain about the sixteen, Law, well you're comparing him to

1560
01:19:01,520 --> 01:19:04,040
Speaker 3: a fourteen Lost texas to a fourteen Loss indiana to

1561
01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:07,720
Speaker 3: a thirteen. LOSS smu And auburn did have some good.

1562
01:19:07,760 --> 01:19:10,439
Speaker 3: Wins but again we're doing this in real, time waiting

1563
01:19:10,479 --> 01:19:14,000
Speaker 3: for sound from the committee, chair AND i do think

1564
01:19:14,120 --> 01:19:17,120
Speaker 3: when we hear from him that will be his point

1565
01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:20,040
Speaker 3: of contention is at a certain, point you just wins

1566
01:19:20,040 --> 01:19:22,840
Speaker 3: and losses do, matter and there's you, know you can

1567
01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:25,960
Speaker 3: look at all different metrics and analytics when you're talking

1568
01:19:25,960 --> 01:19:29,559
Speaker 3: about a sixteen loss team that had clearly never happened

1569
01:19:29,600 --> 01:19:31,959
Speaker 3: a sixteen loss team and never gotten a large, anyway

1570
01:19:32,400 --> 01:19:35,280
Speaker 3: and it looks, like at least for one more, year

1571
01:19:35,320 --> 01:19:36,280
Speaker 3: it's going to continue.

1572
01:19:35,960 --> 01:19:38,280
Speaker 2: That, way you, Know and If miami isn't the last,

1573
01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:40,960
Speaker 2: Team i'm not sure necessarily who. Is i'm sure they

1574
01:19:41,400 --> 01:19:43,600
Speaker 2: weren't going to pair UP smu AND Nc state in

1575
01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:47,280
Speaker 2: a first four matchup because of being conference. OPPONENTS i

1576
01:19:47,400 --> 01:19:51,439
Speaker 2: mentioned THAT i thought That miami At ohio Against texas

1577
01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:53,800
Speaker 2: would be great just because of the difference it's in

1578
01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:58,040
Speaker 2: the in the, schools In texas being this. Behemoth BUT

1579
01:19:58,120 --> 01:20:00,200
Speaker 2: i Think texas is a part of this conversation when

1580
01:20:00,200 --> 01:20:02,880
Speaker 2: we're talking About oklahoma as. Well when you have these

1581
01:20:02,920 --> 01:20:05,759
Speaker 2: mega conferences and you can only play so many conference,

1582
01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:09,160
Speaker 2: games you are playing a couple of other schools twice

1583
01:20:09,200 --> 01:20:11,439
Speaker 2: In oklahoma And texas got a chance to play twice

1584
01:20:11,479 --> 01:20:14,439
Speaker 2: this past. Year you're not playing everybody. Twice, now you,

1585
01:20:14,439 --> 01:20:16,800
Speaker 2: know Is, auburn you, know going to be a team

1586
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:18,400
Speaker 2: that has to play the best team in the conference,

1587
01:20:18,439 --> 01:20:21,160
Speaker 2: twice And texas gets the benefit of a of a

1588
01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:24,320
Speaker 2: bad team it may or may not play into, it

1589
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:27,400
Speaker 2: but you split your matchups In texas finished two games

1590
01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:29,519
Speaker 2: ahead of you in the, conference standing, sure and to

1591
01:20:29,560 --> 01:20:32,840
Speaker 2: me like that is those two, games that's that's a

1592
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:36,040
Speaker 2: long ways. Away when you're nine to nine as opposed

1593
01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:40,320
Speaker 2: to seven and, eleven that is a, huge huge. Distance,

1594
01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:42,679
Speaker 2: now according to the, committee it was just a couple

1595
01:20:42,760 --> 01:20:46,400
Speaker 2: of spots when it comes to at large. Bids but you,

1596
01:20:46,400 --> 01:20:49,599
Speaker 2: Know oklahoma have their opportunity if they Beat texas, twice they.

1597
01:20:49,560 --> 01:20:52,519
Speaker 3: Beat are Different so in THE sec tournament semifinal maybe

1598
01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:55,439
Speaker 3: or a. Quarterfinal excuse, me, Listen we've said. It we're

1599
01:20:55,439 --> 01:20:58,160
Speaker 3: going to keep saying it for another. Hour is everybody

1600
01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:01,120
Speaker 3: that was left out had their opportunities and could not take.

1601
01:21:01,160 --> 01:21:03,680
Speaker 2: Advantage so what is interesting is they're looking at the

1602
01:21:03,960 --> 01:21:07,880
Speaker 2: bracket right. Here they HAVE Nc states as the forty

1603
01:21:07,920 --> 01:21:10,559
Speaker 2: first team in the bracket when it comes to the,

1604
01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:14,360
Speaker 2: rankings and they Have texas as the forty second. Team

1605
01:21:14,720 --> 01:21:17,840
Speaker 2: didn't see what the number rankings were With miami Of

1606
01:21:17,840 --> 01:21:20,720
Speaker 2: ohio AND, smu but that may be up. There it

1607
01:21:20,760 --> 01:21:23,720
Speaker 2: is they, ACTUALLY i don't know What keith kill is,

1608
01:21:23,720 --> 01:21:26,280
Speaker 2: saying but they're Putting miami Of ohio in as the

1609
01:21:26,320 --> 01:21:30,160
Speaker 2: forty fourth and for the seedwise AND smu forty. Three,

1610
01:21:30,720 --> 01:21:33,880
Speaker 2: well here from the chair of THE Ncaa Tournament committee

1611
01:21:33,920 --> 01:21:36,679
Speaker 2: and what he said TO. Cbs He's Erin, Torres i'm

1616
01:21:48,960 --> 01:21:52,320

1617
01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:55,840
Speaker 2: their chinny chin. Chin there may have been some saying,

1618
01:21:55,840 --> 01:21:59,960
Speaker 2: otherwise But miami Of ohio is in THE Ncaa. Tournament

1619
01:22:00,840 --> 01:22:03,360
Speaker 2: we knew That duke was gonna be. In we Knew,

1620
01:22:03,400 --> 01:22:06,000
Speaker 2: arizona we Knew. Michigan we just didn't know if it

1621
01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,800
Speaker 2: was gonna be The. RedHawks they've been the talking point

1622
01:22:08,800 --> 01:22:11,559
Speaker 2: in college basketball for the last week and they did get,

1623
01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:15,599
Speaker 2: in and that was bad news For, Oklahoma, Auburn San Diego,

1624
01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:18,160
Speaker 2: State indiana and. Others Aaron, torres who are on the

1625
01:22:18,200 --> 01:22:19,120
Speaker 2: outside looking, In.

1626
01:22:20,160 --> 01:22:23,880
Speaker 3: We're watching all the. Reaction arizona definitely has the best watch.

1627
01:22:23,960 --> 01:22:27,280
Speaker 3: Party it's eighty. Degrees they got the bucket hats on.

1628
01:22:29,720 --> 01:22:31,639
Speaker 4: Fun time of. Year we're Gonna we're we got another

1629
01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:32,479
Speaker 4: hour to break down this.

1630
01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:35,320
Speaker 3: BRACKET i think the thing that stands out to Me Dan,

1631
01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:38,719
Speaker 3: byer it feels like The east and.

1632
01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:42,240
Speaker 4: The west are very loaded. Brackets duke the one seed

1633
01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:42,479
Speaker 4: in The.

1634
01:22:42,520 --> 01:22:47,200
Speaker 3: East, listen everyone, says, oh you, know the committee Wants

1635
01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:50,719
Speaker 3: duke to, this To duke to. That Whatever Saint john's

1636
01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:53,639
Speaker 3: Or kansas in The sweet sixteen will likely be their.

1637
01:22:53,640 --> 01:22:58,160
Speaker 3: Opponent and Then yukon Or Michigan. STATE i don't know

1638
01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:00,519
Speaker 3: If Michigan state would get although they Played Michigan state

1639
01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:03,120
Speaker 3: and it was a close. Game yukon for all of

1640
01:23:03,160 --> 01:23:06,120
Speaker 3: the problems that they have, had If yukon can somehow

1641
01:23:06,200 --> 01:23:10,639
Speaker 3: get to That sunday In, washington D. C i actually

1642
01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:14,439
Speaker 3: think it is a very advantageous matchup For. Yukon so

1643
01:23:14,520 --> 01:23:17,519
Speaker 3: The east is, stacked and then The West arizona as

1644
01:23:17,560 --> 01:23:21,439
Speaker 3: the one, seed potentially playing two of the hottest teams

1645
01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:24,240
Speaker 3: in the sweet, sixteen and Either arkansas Or, wisconsin who

1646
01:23:24,280 --> 01:23:26,280
Speaker 3: would meet in the round of thirty. Two i'll say,

1647
01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:28,840
Speaker 3: this even byu is a six seed is interesting with

1648
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,519
Speaker 3: Aj De, bonsa, who of course on any given night

1649
01:23:31,560 --> 01:23:34,559
Speaker 3: can go for thirty thirty, five forty, points and then

1650
01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:37,640
Speaker 3: the bottom half of that bracket. Perdue so just a

1651
01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:39,880
Speaker 3: lot of interesting hypotheticals.

1652
01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:45,080
Speaker 2: OVERALL i think That Mary mack can relate to. This Mary,

1653
01:23:45,120 --> 01:23:47,640
Speaker 2: mack you know why you have an artist and they

1654
01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:50,360
Speaker 2: release an album and it's just hit after. Hit it's

1655
01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:54,320
Speaker 2: just banger after. Banger it's, awesome isn't. It it's. Magnificent she's,

1656
01:23:54,439 --> 01:23:56,920
Speaker 2: yeah go, ahead you can give me the Verbal, okay, yeah.

1657
01:23:57,000 --> 01:23:59,400
Speaker 2: Great that's WHAT i felt like it was when they

1658
01:23:59,439 --> 01:24:02,960
Speaker 2: were revealing these top seeds in the first. Bracket just it's, Like,

1659
01:24:03,520 --> 01:24:06,160
Speaker 2: Duke it's like the first song off the, Album, man

1660
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:09,599
Speaker 2: this song is. Great then you Drop Saint john's and you're,

1661
01:24:09,640 --> 01:24:12,120
Speaker 2: like my, goodness is a five. Seed then it Was.

1662
01:24:12,200 --> 01:24:15,799
Speaker 2: Kansas you're, like oh my, gosh this song is, Great Michigan,

1663
01:24:15,960 --> 01:24:20,040
Speaker 2: state and Then. YUKON i, mean think of it. Is

1664
01:24:20,280 --> 01:24:25,640
Speaker 2: think of these coaches that you have, here, right three Three.

1665
01:24:25,400 --> 01:24:29,120
Speaker 3: Hall of, famers one definitive Future hall Of famer And

1666
01:24:29,240 --> 01:24:30,720
Speaker 3: Dan hurley And John.

1667
01:24:30,760 --> 01:24:33,120
Speaker 4: Shire it's, early but he's certainly on this rejectory.

1668
01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:34,840
Speaker 2: And you have no idea what mc cronin's gonna. Do

1669
01:24:35,000 --> 01:24:39,439
Speaker 2: and SO ucla on a brand, name like listen to

1670

1671
01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:45,320

1674
01:24:57,320 --> 01:24:58,960
Speaker 2: now that IS i didn't know if they were have

1675
01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:01,160
Speaker 2: enough teams for the to the bracket when we heard

1676
01:25:01,200 --> 01:25:03,800
Speaker 2: the first when we heard half of the, field then

1677
01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:07,320
Speaker 2: it's no disrespect to the likes Of houston And Iowa.

1678
01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:10,960
Speaker 2: State but When i'm hearing these names being, revealed and

1679
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:13,800
Speaker 2: it was a little less with The west, region but

1680
01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:18,599
Speaker 2: When arizona the second overall, seed When arkansas is the four,

1681
01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:23,719
Speaker 2: Seed gonzaga name brand as a three, seed that's pretty

1682
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:27,120
Speaker 2: popular as. Well we talked About wisconsin just a couple

1683
01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:29,400
Speaker 2: of hours ago before the bracket was. Released this could

1684
01:25:29,439 --> 01:25:32,240
Speaker 2: be a team that goes to An elite eight Or final.

1685
01:25:32,280 --> 01:25:34,720
Speaker 2: Four they could lose the high point in the first.

1686
01:25:34,840 --> 01:25:38,120
Speaker 2: Round like there's a lot of volatility. There but, man

1687
01:25:38,240 --> 01:25:40,960
Speaker 2: when you talk about that the first half of the

1688
01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:42,479
Speaker 2: bracket that was, announced now they're going to be on

1689
01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:45,400
Speaker 2: opposite sides Because duke's the number one overall seed and

1690
01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:48,759
Speaker 2: the number two overall, seed Is, arizona so they wouldn't

1691
01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:52,439
Speaker 2: meet until the championship. Game but, STILL i just when

1692
01:25:52,479 --> 01:25:55,200
Speaker 2: that first segment came, out it was just team after.

1693
01:25:55,280 --> 01:25:57,559
Speaker 2: Team it blew my mind erin Torres. No it's.

1694
01:25:57,600 --> 01:26:00,640
Speaker 3: Incredible and even you, know some of the teams that

1695
01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:04,479
Speaker 3: aren't the, obvious you know whatever Is like you look At, Louisville,

1696
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:06,680
Speaker 3: louisville you know they shoot a lot of, threes you,

1697
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:07,679
Speaker 3: know don't let them get.

1698
01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:08,320
Speaker 4: HOT i think.

1699
01:26:08,360 --> 01:26:10,960
Speaker 3: THEY i think them And South florida could Give Michigan

1700
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:12,920
Speaker 3: state a tough matchup in the round of thirty. Two,

1701
01:26:13,400 --> 01:26:15,920
Speaker 3: ucla if they're, HEALTHY i think could give you kind

1702
01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:17,439
Speaker 3: of tough matchup in the round of thirty.

1703
01:26:17,479 --> 01:26:18,720
Speaker 4: Two so you just.

1704
01:26:18,680 --> 01:26:22,320
Speaker 3: Talk about not only big, names but but potential for,

1705
01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:24,600
Speaker 3: shakeup AND i keep going back to. IT i Know

1706
01:26:24,640 --> 01:26:26,719
Speaker 3: i've said this once or twice. Already SO i apologize

1707
01:26:26,760 --> 01:26:28,760
Speaker 3: for people who have been with us since we started this.

1708
01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:32,639
Speaker 3: Show But duke having to face potentially Either Saint john's

1709
01:26:32,800 --> 01:26:35,640
Speaker 3: or A kansas team that by that point would have some.

1710
01:26:35,800 --> 01:26:38,680
Speaker 3: Momentum you, know you can't tell me that this this

1711
01:26:38,760 --> 01:26:42,719
Speaker 3: thing is favor that the committed, everybody all the powers

1712
01:26:42,760 --> 01:26:45,040
Speaker 3: that be Want duke to go as far as they possibly.

1713
01:26:45,040 --> 01:26:47,320
Speaker 3: Could AND i mentioned it, earlier but it is worth

1714
01:26:47,360 --> 01:26:52,400
Speaker 3: Noting duke right now two starters which actually are up

1715
01:26:52,439 --> 01:26:54,360
Speaker 3: in the air for this. Tournament as you get set

1716
01:26:54,400 --> 01:26:57,240
Speaker 3: to fill out your bracket the next few, days monitor

1717
01:26:57,280 --> 01:26:59,800
Speaker 3: The duke injury situation Because i'll tell you WHAT i.

1718
01:26:59,800 --> 01:27:01,720
Speaker 3: Mean i'm sure you watched at least a little bit

1719
01:27:01,720 --> 01:27:06,000
Speaker 3: of That Saint John's Yukon Swite Big Big East championship game.

1720
01:27:06,080 --> 01:27:09,559
Speaker 3: Yesterday that is a physical team that you need all

1721
01:27:09,600 --> 01:27:11,679
Speaker 3: your horses for or you could be In Big.

1722
01:27:11,479 --> 01:27:17,479
Speaker 2: Troup the team that we teased that got. Screwed AND

1723
01:27:17,520 --> 01:27:19,760
Speaker 2: i think that you're gonna hear, complaining But i'm not

1724
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:22,040
Speaker 2: sure if people are going to allow the complaining to

1725
01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:25,479
Speaker 2: resonate because of something that you said earlier That John

1726
01:27:25,520 --> 01:27:28,080
Speaker 2: kalapari is going to complain about the of the. Teams

1727
01:27:28,360 --> 01:27:31,240
Speaker 2: but he's right this time, though and he absolutely has a.

1728
01:27:31,240 --> 01:27:34,519
Speaker 2: Point and it was interesting because we had posed the

1729
01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:37,080
Speaker 2: question of what do you do With arkansas who ends

1730
01:27:37,160 --> 01:27:41,599
Speaker 2: up winning THE sec. Tournament do you think it's. Different

1731
01:27:42,320 --> 01:27:46,320
Speaker 2: do you think it's different if If arkansas Beats florida

1732
01:27:46,479 --> 01:27:49,559
Speaker 2: in the semi finals and then Beats vanderbilt in the

1733
01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:53,360
Speaker 2: championship game as opposed to beating an Ole miss in

1734
01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:56,160
Speaker 2: the semi, finals as Ole miss wasn't even above five.

1735
01:27:56,240 --> 01:28:00,960
Speaker 4: Hundred it may BE i don't know THAT i feel

1736
01:28:01,040 --> 01:28:01,679
Speaker 4: that it would.

1737
01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:04,200
Speaker 3: Be AND i think WHAT i think the MORE i

1738
01:28:04,320 --> 01:28:09,240
Speaker 3: realize is this is the problem with these, fourteen sixteen

1739
01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:13,000
Speaker 3: eighteen team leagues is that you have The big twelve

1740
01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:15,280
Speaker 3: and The Big, ten and they have a lot of

1741
01:28:15,320 --> 01:28:18,240
Speaker 3: teams that are gonna be on that, one, two, three four,

1742
01:28:18,360 --> 01:28:20,880
Speaker 3: line and you gotta kind of spread them. Out and

1743
01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:23,719
Speaker 3: so when that, happens it means that In, arkansas it's

1744
01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:27,639
Speaker 3: not even Necessarily. Arkansas Saint john's is going To San. Diego,

1745
01:28:28,520 --> 01:28:31,080
Speaker 3: PURDUE i think was maybe a little bit misseeeded, TO

1746
01:28:31,280 --> 01:28:33,720
Speaker 3: i think break up some of those teams as a two.

1747
01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:36,720
Speaker 3: Seed so that's WHAT i think it is more than.

1748
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:40,120
Speaker 3: Anything you have so many teams in these you, know

1749
01:28:40,200 --> 01:28:43,439
Speaker 3: really it's a power. Four we call it power five

1750
01:28:43,479 --> 01:28:46,040
Speaker 3: in college basketball because you still have The Big. East

1751
01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:47,720
Speaker 3: but The Big east was down this year and so

1752
01:28:47,760 --> 01:28:50,080
Speaker 3: you just get you, know you talked about it from the,

1753
01:28:50,080 --> 01:28:52,600
Speaker 3: beginning those four, five, Six Big ten teams that you

1754
01:28:52,760 --> 01:28:54,559
Speaker 3: gotta kind of figure out a way to spread out

1755
01:28:54,560 --> 01:28:57,960
Speaker 3: The nebraska, is The, purdues The, illinois et. Cetera same

1756
01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:00,840
Speaker 3: in The Big twelve With kansas And Iowa state In,

1757
01:29:00,880 --> 01:29:04,080
Speaker 3: houston on and, on and, unfortunately you, know if you

1758
01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:07,080
Speaker 3: do deem those conferences to be, good they're going to.

1759
01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:11,599
Speaker 3: Be there's going to be there's gonna be just a

1760
01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:13,800
Speaker 3: lot of imbalance in these. Brackets AND i think that's

1761
01:29:13,840 --> 01:29:15,680
Speaker 3: exactly what you see the situation.

1762
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:17,640
Speaker 2: With, arkansas and the committee made it be known That

1763
01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:21,600
Speaker 2: nebraska was their highest rated four. Seed they Had nebraska

1764
01:29:21,760 --> 01:29:25,479
Speaker 2: as the thirteenth overall seed in this. Tournament arkansas was

1765
01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:30,240
Speaker 2: the sixteenth overall seeded. Tournament entering, today THE wob if you,

1766
01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:35,160
Speaker 2: will From nebraska was, Twelve arkansas was. Fifteen taking a

1767
01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:38,880
Speaker 2: look at the net rakings ratings that came in prior

1768
01:29:38,960 --> 01:29:42,800
Speaker 2: to the, Day nebraska was, Fourteen arkansas was. Seventeenth So

1769
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:47,160
Speaker 2: nebraska did have an edge On arkansas in those in those.

1770
01:29:47,160 --> 01:29:49,880
Speaker 2: Matchups BUT i haven't Seen nebraska play basketball the last two,

1771
01:29:49,920 --> 01:29:52,960
Speaker 2: Days you're, right you, know and so when you look

1772
01:29:52,960 --> 01:29:56,599
Speaker 2: at Where arkansas is and maybe we're getting wrapped up

1773
01:29:56,640 --> 01:30:00,280
Speaker 2: in you, Know Darius acuff and The John kalla power

1774
01:30:00,439 --> 01:30:03,240
Speaker 2: portion of. It but there is something at steak. Here

1775
01:30:03,640 --> 01:30:07,000
Speaker 2: nebraska gets to play In Oklahoma. City the travel For

1776
01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:09,560
Speaker 2: nebraska fans not going to be. Bad and by the,

1777
01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:12,599
Speaker 2: way that's a perk for them as a four seed

1778
01:30:13,479 --> 01:30:15,839
Speaker 2: if you have an advantage or you have the, ability

1779
01:30:15,880 --> 01:30:19,479
Speaker 2: because Obviously portland was an option For nebraska to go,

1780
01:30:19,560 --> 01:30:21,880
Speaker 2: play but they weren't put. There they went to a

1781
01:30:21,960 --> 01:30:24,839
Speaker 2: more advantageous spot and they get to go To Oklahoma,

1782
01:30:24,920 --> 01:30:28,400
Speaker 2: City arkansas And Oklahoma city half that arena would have

1783
01:30:28,400 --> 01:30:31,960
Speaker 2: been you, know Calling. Hoggs it would have and you

1784
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:36,000
Speaker 2: could have in a, scenario But wisconsin And High point

1785
01:30:36,360 --> 01:30:38,880
Speaker 2: as well In Oklahoma city because that wouldn't have as

1786
01:30:38,960 --> 01:30:42,559
Speaker 2: much and Moved Vanderbilt nebraska, Out but they didn't do.

1787
01:30:42,640 --> 01:30:47,760
Speaker 2: That AND i JUST i THINK i Like arkansas better Than,

1788
01:30:47,800 --> 01:30:51,320
Speaker 2: nebraska AND i think That nebraska got the benefit of

1789
01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:53,040
Speaker 2: the doubt and all of, this and they got a,

1790
01:30:53,160 --> 01:30:56,840
Speaker 2: huge huge break in being able to play In Oklahoma

1791
01:30:56,880 --> 01:31:00,320
Speaker 2: city as opposed to having to go out west Play.

1792
01:31:00,439 --> 01:31:03,960
Speaker 2: Thursday so but they travel For arkansas would have obviously

1793
01:31:04,040 --> 01:31:06,840
Speaker 2: been a lot nicer to just take a drive over

1794
01:31:06,880 --> 01:31:07,880
Speaker 2: To Oklahoma, city From.

1795
01:31:07,920 --> 01:31:11,280
Speaker 3: Fayaneville and especially remember they're playing On sunday. Too they

1796
01:31:11,280 --> 01:31:14,000
Speaker 3: play they did play today On, sunday so it looks,

1797
01:31:14,040 --> 01:31:15,799
Speaker 3: like you, know Cal perry's on one of the screens,

1798
01:31:15,840 --> 01:31:18,600
Speaker 3: here looks like they did get back To. Fayetteville but

1799
01:31:18,680 --> 01:31:21,000
Speaker 3: the counter to that, is you, know you know, This

1800
01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:23,240
Speaker 3: dan is when you Play, thursday you gotta Leave. Tuesday

1801
01:31:23,280 --> 01:31:25,080
Speaker 3: so they're gonna fly Out, tuesday.

1802
01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:25,599
Speaker 4: Do media all Day.

1803
01:31:25,600 --> 01:31:30,800
Speaker 3: Wednesday basically they'll probably be flying across country as essentially

1804
01:31:31,720 --> 01:31:35,479
Speaker 3: what thirty six hours after they got back From. Nashville

1805
01:31:35,479 --> 01:31:37,479
Speaker 3: SO i know these players are, Young it's THE ncaa.

1806
01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:40,920
Speaker 3: Tournament everybody has to deal with something that is a, tough,

1807
01:31:40,960 --> 01:31:43,320
Speaker 3: tough tough. TURNAROUND i think it, also by the, way

1808
01:31:43,360 --> 01:31:46,360
Speaker 3: and this is getting way in the weeds of The brackett.

1809
01:31:46,680 --> 01:31:48,559
Speaker 3: Though WELL i was gonna, SAY i think it applies

1810
01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:50,280
Speaker 3: to them and to a Degree wisconsin as.

1811
01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:53,360
Speaker 4: Well is do you even fly? Home do?

1812
01:31:53,760 --> 01:31:56,320
Speaker 3: YOU i guess you Play, saturday you wouldn't play again

1813
01:31:56,360 --> 01:31:58,800
Speaker 3: until the Following. THURSDAY i guess you. Do BUT i

1814
01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:01,080
Speaker 3: think there's probably an argument stay on The west coast

1815
01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:03,280
Speaker 3: at that. POINT i don't, know BUT i just bring

1816
01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:06,120
Speaker 3: it up BECAUSE i think both those teams at a

1817
01:32:06,160 --> 01:32:10,360
Speaker 3: real disadvantage having to go To portland, again at Least.

1818
01:32:10,400 --> 01:32:14,000
Speaker 4: Wisconsin you, Know, Wisconsin wisconsin's home. TODAY i was gonna, say.

1819
01:32:13,920 --> 01:32:17,280
Speaker 3: In many, ways and this, again you AND i open

1820
01:32:17,360 --> 01:32:20,200
Speaker 3: the show talking about the value of conference. Tournaments, yes

1821
01:32:20,200 --> 01:32:21,880
Speaker 3: if you're in a one bid, league you need the

1822
01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:24,960
Speaker 3: conference tournament for a lot of these teams to have a.

1823
01:32:25,000 --> 01:32:27,439
Speaker 3: Shot but the counter to it is a lot of

1824
01:32:27,439 --> 01:32:30,800
Speaker 3: these teams that do, advance you're at such a. Disadvantage

1825
01:32:30,840 --> 01:32:32,760
Speaker 3: AND i think we're talking about a couple of them right.

1826
01:32:32,760 --> 01:32:35,800
Speaker 2: Here it's interesting as it plays, out by the, way

1827
01:32:36,080 --> 01:32:41,320
Speaker 2: because of those games On thursday And, Saturday vanderbilt is

1828
01:32:41,360 --> 01:32:43,880
Speaker 2: not going to have to travel as much, either just

1829
01:32:43,960 --> 01:32:48,280
Speaker 2: To Oklahoma. City they've got a better situation travel wise

1830
01:32:48,320 --> 01:32:52,280
Speaker 2: Than arkansas. Does the lower seed and they lose, today

1831
01:32:52,320 --> 01:32:57,439
Speaker 2: but they really have a more more beneficial. SITUATION i

1832
01:32:57,479 --> 01:33:01,120
Speaker 2: don't Maybe i'm wrong IN sae that we're splitting hairs

1833
01:33:01,120 --> 01:33:03,880
Speaker 2: Between hawaii and, McNeice BUT i don't think that the

1834
01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:07,960
Speaker 2: opponent necessarily matters as much to the higher seeded schools

1835
01:33:08,439 --> 01:33:11,759
Speaker 2: as opposed to travel in days in where you can play.

1836
01:33:11,600 --> 01:33:15,160
Speaker 3: Well you know you talked earlier in the show about

1837
01:33:15,200 --> 01:33:19,840
Speaker 3: the idea of in certain scenarios with a conference championship

1838
01:33:19,840 --> 01:33:22,000
Speaker 3: game on A, sunday you can just flip one team

1839
01:33:22,040 --> 01:33:23,919
Speaker 3: for the. Other we use the example of The American

1840
01:33:23,960 --> 01:33:26,719
Speaker 3: Wichita state In South florida we're. Playing do you just

1841
01:33:26,840 --> 01:33:29,439
Speaker 3: plug In Wichita state if they lose To South florida

1842
01:33:29,479 --> 01:33:32,120
Speaker 3: or if they Beat South. Florida do you think that

1843
01:33:32,160 --> 01:33:35,360
Speaker 3: If vanderbilt In, arkansas if the opposite have, happened If

1844
01:33:35,439 --> 01:33:39,240
Speaker 3: vanderbilt had won today And arkansas had, lost that all

1845
01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:41,920
Speaker 3: of a, Sudden arkansas now gets that five seed they play.

1846
01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:46,360
Speaker 3: Mcneeset they would still Play. Thursday excuse, me but they

1847
01:33:46,360 --> 01:33:48,080
Speaker 3: would at least get a little bit more of an

1848
01:33:48,120 --> 01:33:53,160
Speaker 3: advantageous geography because again you just talk about the fact

1849
01:33:53,200 --> 01:33:56,519
Speaker 3: that Again vanderbilt was the loser, today BUT i think

1850
01:33:56,560 --> 01:33:59,080
Speaker 3: you could absolutely argue they were the winner based on

1851
01:33:59,120 --> 01:33:59,640
Speaker 3: the draw that they.

1852
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:02,280
Speaker 2: ASSENTIAL i don't think it changes BECAUSE i think then

1853
01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:09,280
Speaker 2: the talking point Is arkansaw's punishment for losing is playing

1854
01:34:09,760 --> 01:34:12,080
Speaker 2: home or they would have stayed In, portland LIKE i

1855
01:34:12,080 --> 01:34:13,920
Speaker 2: think they would have said if that was the, Case

1856
01:34:13,960 --> 01:34:16,559
Speaker 2: if they would have, lost and these seedings would have

1857
01:34:16,560 --> 01:34:20,519
Speaker 2: stayed the. SAME i think the excuse could have, been,

1858
01:34:21,000 --> 01:34:23,840
Speaker 2: well we Moved arkansas To portland because of the loss

1859
01:34:23,840 --> 01:34:24,720
Speaker 2: in the championship.

1860
01:34:24,760 --> 01:34:28,559
Speaker 3: Game, Sure i'm just Saying arkansas For vandy of. FIVE

1861
01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:30,680
Speaker 3: i mean that feels like a pretty easy flip if

1862
01:34:30,720 --> 01:34:32,040
Speaker 3: the game goes the other, way you know What i'm.

1863
01:34:32,040 --> 01:34:34,880
Speaker 2: Saying, Yes, yes BUT i don't know If vandy And

1864
01:34:35,040 --> 01:34:37,920
Speaker 2: arkansas were in the Same, okay, yeah Well i'll tell you.

1865
01:34:38,000 --> 01:34:41,240
Speaker 2: What vandy's you, KNOW wob was higher Than arkansas's heading,

1866
01:34:41,240 --> 01:34:44,680
Speaker 2: in so there may have been in the same with their.

1867
01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:48,200
Speaker 2: Net so, YEAH i, guess, YEAH i get what You're

1868
01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:49,240
Speaker 2: it's just.

1869
01:34:49,360 --> 01:34:52,080
Speaker 3: Hypothetical who, KNOWS i, mean you know, again and the

1870
01:34:52,080 --> 01:34:54,400
Speaker 3: committee says all the right things about we do, this

1871
01:34:54,520 --> 01:34:58,720
Speaker 3: we don't do. THAT i would be curious what the

1872
01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:01,160
Speaker 3: truth of the matter is when comes to things like.

1873
01:35:01,200 --> 01:35:06,880
Speaker 2: That, yes the bracket never ceases to. Amaze it is

1874

1903
01:36:48,439 --> 01:36:50,160
Speaker 2: we want to hear From Keith, gill who was the

1904
01:36:50,439 --> 01:36:53,840
Speaker 2: committee chair of the Men's Selection. Committee he's the commissioner

1905
01:36:53,840 --> 01:36:57,040
Speaker 2: of the Sum Belt conference and in his conversations WITH

1906
01:36:57,280 --> 01:37:01,200
Speaker 2: cbs following the reveal of the, brackets talked about a

1907
01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:05,120
Speaker 2: lot of. Issues miami Of ohio first and foremost on our.

1908
01:37:05,160 --> 01:37:07,360
Speaker 2: MINDS i think it's been the biggest topic that we've. Had,

1909
01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:09,519
Speaker 2: look we Knew duke was probably going to be number,

1910
01:37:09,520 --> 01:37:11,280
Speaker 2: one and When michigan, lost they were probably going to

1911
01:37:11,360 --> 01:37:15,479
Speaker 2: be the third number one, seed the third overall, seed

1912
01:37:15,520 --> 01:37:18,040
Speaker 2: and that's how it played. Out but the bottom of

1913
01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:20,840
Speaker 2: the bracket more, interesting and specifically when it came to

1914
01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:23,120
Speaker 2: The RedHawks And miami Of ohio thirty one and. One

1915
01:37:23,479 --> 01:37:25,920
Speaker 2: this Was Keith gill talking about their inclusion into the

1916
01:37:25,920 --> 01:37:26,639
Speaker 2: field of sixty.

1917
01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:30,360
Speaker 7: Eight Miami ohio was not the last team selected into the,

1918
01:37:30,400 --> 01:37:35,559
Speaker 7: field so they came in BEFORE Nc, State texas AND,

1919
01:37:35,760 --> 01:37:39,679
Speaker 7: smu and when we did our scrubbing, process those teams

1920
01:37:39,720 --> 01:37:44,760
Speaker 7: scrubbed above them relative to the predictive metrics and also

1921
01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:48,280
Speaker 7: the difference in the quality of the, wins so they

1922
01:37:48,280 --> 01:37:49,040
Speaker 7: scrubbed up above.

1923
01:37:49,120 --> 01:37:52,759
Speaker 2: Them SO i think that's a bit of, semantics, Right

1924
01:37:52,920 --> 01:37:57,519
Speaker 2: like you're talking, about they Had miami Of ohio ahead

1925
01:37:57,520 --> 01:37:59,400
Speaker 2: of those other, schools but then when you started to

1926
01:37:59,439 --> 01:38:04,799
Speaker 2: look at the wins and what they, Had, TEXAS, smu

1927
01:38:04,840 --> 01:38:08,519
Speaker 2: AND Nc state moved. Ahead but ultimately you HAVE smu

1928
01:38:08,720 --> 01:38:13,040
Speaker 2: Against miami Of ohio being the two upon the overall.

1929
01:38:13,120 --> 01:38:17,880
Speaker 2: Ranks from what we saw FROM, CBS i still Think

1930
01:38:17,920 --> 01:38:20,000
Speaker 2: miami Of ohio technically is the last team.

1931
01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:23,880
Speaker 3: In, yeah, yeah it's semantics at this. Point you're, right

1932
01:38:25,320 --> 01:38:28,640
Speaker 3: and it is again it just comes back to you

1933
01:38:28,680 --> 01:38:30,720
Speaker 3: have so many of these, teams and again this is

1934
01:38:30,760 --> 01:38:33,120
Speaker 3: part of the problem with THE net in, general is

1935
01:38:33,640 --> 01:38:38,480
Speaker 3: it just so favors The Power conference teams that ultimately

1936
01:38:38,640 --> 01:38:41,080
Speaker 3: you get put in situations like this where you have

1937
01:38:41,200 --> 01:38:44,160
Speaker 3: TWO acc teams going To dayton or, yeah going To.

1938
01:38:44,240 --> 01:38:46,080
Speaker 3: Dayton excuse, me for a while we thought it was

1939
01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:47,840
Speaker 3: going to be TWO sec teams and it just it

1940
01:38:48,000 --> 01:38:50,680
Speaker 3: makes you imbalance the. Bracket and AGAIN i go back

1941
01:38:50,720 --> 01:38:53,479
Speaker 3: To purdue being a two seed when most people didn't have.

1942
01:38:53,520 --> 01:38:56,400
Speaker 3: Them there a couple other Situations nebraska where they Are.

1943
01:38:56,439 --> 01:38:59,720
Speaker 3: Wisconsin it just happens when there are so many of

1944
01:38:59,760 --> 01:39:01,559
Speaker 3: the teams in the same.

1945
01:39:01,600 --> 01:39:05,599
Speaker 2: Conference miami Of ohio had had a bigger. Wobb wins

1946
01:39:05,760 --> 01:39:12,000
Speaker 2: Above bubble were ranked higher THAN Nc, state Than, auburn Then,

1947
01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:16,000
Speaker 2: missouri who was firmly in at number ten At TEXAS

1948
01:39:16,040 --> 01:39:18,120
Speaker 2: a and m another ten, Seed iowa was a nine,

1949
01:39:18,160 --> 01:39:20,599
Speaker 2: seed And miam Of ohio had a better wobb than

1950
01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:24,200
Speaker 2: they did coming into. Today so an interesting point there

1951
01:39:24,920 --> 01:39:27,559
Speaker 2: at THE smu part of the. Equation Who miami Of

1952
01:39:27,560 --> 01:39:30,920
Speaker 2: ohio now will have to play On. Wednesday Keith gill

1953
01:39:31,120 --> 01:39:33,680
Speaker 2: talked about The. Mustangs, YEAH i think when you.

1954
01:39:33,640 --> 01:39:35,600
Speaker 7: Look at, that you, know the quality of wins is

1955
01:39:35,600 --> 01:39:38,080
Speaker 7: where it came. Down when you TAKE. SMU smu is

1956
01:39:38,120 --> 01:39:41,080
Speaker 7: the last the last team selected into the.

1957
01:39:41,120 --> 01:39:42,320
Speaker 2: Field you look at.

1958
01:39:42,320 --> 01:39:45,120
Speaker 7: It they had wins when these teams were at full

1959
01:39:45,160 --> 01:39:50,640
Speaker 7: strength Over North Carolina louisville And TEXAS a AND. M

1960
01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:54,519
Speaker 7: six games, ago they lost one of their important, Players,

1961
01:39:54,920 --> 01:39:58,360
Speaker 7: edwards and they're five and six in The they've lost

1962
01:39:58,360 --> 01:40:00,920
Speaker 7: five of six of those. Games he's coming. Back he's

1963
01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:03,920
Speaker 7: the third leading, scorer defensive, player and so the quality

1964
01:40:03,960 --> 01:40:06,320
Speaker 7: of lens wins and obviously them getting back to full

1965
01:40:06,360 --> 01:40:09,559
Speaker 7: strength allowed them to kind of get that last spot real.

1966
01:40:09,640 --> 01:40:13,080
Speaker 3: Quick did you notice this would have BEEN i Guess.

1967
01:40:14,200 --> 01:40:18,839
Speaker 3: WEDNESDAY i think SO smu, Played you, know they Play. Tuesday,

1968
01:40:18,880 --> 01:40:23,640
Speaker 3: wednesday they get eliminated from THE acc ON icc tournament On,

1969
01:40:23,760 --> 01:40:28,559
Speaker 3: Wednesday thursday, morning they immediately put out an announcement THAT

1970
01:40:28,640 --> 01:40:31,479
Speaker 3: Bj edwards their third leading. Scorer did you saw, this,

1971
01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:35,679
Speaker 3: Yes and so at the time for people not, following

1972
01:40:35,680 --> 01:40:38,120
Speaker 3: SO smu is, eliminated they know they're very much on the.

1973
01:40:38,160 --> 01:40:41,880
Speaker 3: Bubble they put out a very bold statement that SAYS Bj,

1974
01:40:42,120 --> 01:40:45,160
Speaker 3: edwards our third leading scorer is expected to be ready

1975
01:40:45,240 --> 01:40:48,400
Speaker 3: for the. Postseason AND i, thought AND i know you

1976
01:40:48,439 --> 01:40:52,920
Speaker 3: feel the same. Way very strategic move of whether it's

1977
01:40:53,080 --> 01:40:56,920
Speaker 3: actually true or, not it's letting the committee, know it's

1978
01:40:56,960 --> 01:40:59,799
Speaker 3: letting the world know we haven't been at full strength

1979
01:41:00,240 --> 01:41:02,479
Speaker 3: and we will be at full strength the next time

1980
01:41:02,520 --> 01:41:05,400
Speaker 3: we take the court. Again whether it's true or, NOT

1981
01:41:05,479 --> 01:41:08,080
Speaker 3: i thought that was very strategic and to hear the

1982
01:41:08,080 --> 01:41:14,160
Speaker 3: committee chair acknowledge that in the process of WHY smu

1983
01:41:14,320 --> 01:41:17,519
Speaker 3: ended up as one of the last teams IN i find.

1984
01:41:17,320 --> 01:41:21,400
Speaker 2: To be, very, very very. Interesting oklah almost to put

1985
01:41:21,400 --> 01:41:23,120
Speaker 2: out a statement That Trey young may actually had some

1986
01:41:23,160 --> 01:41:26,160
Speaker 2: eligibility left and could return in time for THE ncaa

1987
01:41:26,240 --> 01:41:28,599
Speaker 2: tournament if he didn't want to play for The Washington.

1988
01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:33,080
Speaker 2: Wizards there is one other topic of conversation That aaron

1989
01:41:33,120 --> 01:41:35,280
Speaker 2: AND i had and it centered around the game earlier.

1990
01:41:35,320 --> 01:41:39,240
Speaker 2: Today this Was Virginia commonwealth In dayton's time to play

1991
01:41:39,240 --> 01:41:42,360
Speaker 2: for the eight ten championship, game AND i just thought

1992
01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:46,200
Speaker 2: That Virginia, commonwealth in seeing WHAT i was seeing with

1993
01:41:46,280 --> 01:41:49,519
Speaker 2: a variety of, bracketologists they were just too much on

1994
01:41:49,640 --> 01:41:54,479
Speaker 2: the bubble to not lose. Today they needed to not.

1995
01:41:54,600 --> 01:41:57,559
Speaker 2: Lose they needed to win to secure the automatic, bid

1996
01:41:57,640 --> 01:42:02,280
Speaker 2: because if they, don't With dayton being their opponent and

1997
01:42:02,320 --> 01:42:05,360
Speaker 2: Not Saint, louis who was already in the, Field dayton

1998
01:42:05,560 --> 01:42:09,360
Speaker 2: would have, taken in my, mind the. Act they would

1999
01:42:09,360 --> 01:42:11,479
Speaker 2: have had the automatic, bid but they also would have

2000
01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:14,080
Speaker 2: knocked in that large team from the rankings WHO i

2001
01:42:14,120 --> 01:42:17,040
Speaker 2: thought could have BEEN. Vcu this is What Keith gill

2002
01:42:17,080 --> 01:42:20,120
Speaker 2: had to say about The, rams who eventually did Beat dayton.

2003
01:42:20,160 --> 01:42:22,760
Speaker 2: Today but what was at stake FOR vcu if they

2004
01:42:22,760 --> 01:42:24,000
Speaker 2: didn't win today.

2005
01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:27,880
Speaker 7: With regards TO, vcu they would not have been in

2006
01:42:27,920 --> 01:42:30,920
Speaker 7: the field if they had not won the acent The

2007
01:42:31,560 --> 01:42:32,839
Speaker 7: atlantic ten automatic.

2008
01:42:32,920 --> 01:42:36,599
Speaker 2: Qualifier so there it. Is they had to win, today

2009
01:42:37,320 --> 01:42:39,400
Speaker 2: otherwise you would not have Had you wouldn't have had

2010
01:42:39,439 --> 01:42:41,439
Speaker 2: three teams from THE a. Ten you only got two,

2011
01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:44,599
Speaker 2: anyway But dayton And Saint louis would have been those

2012
01:42:44,600 --> 01:42:45,200
Speaker 2: teams and NOT.

2013
01:42:45,400 --> 01:42:48,240
Speaker 3: Vcu another great point by you that you brought up last,

2014
01:42:48,360 --> 01:42:51,720
Speaker 3: night the possibility Of dayton being so, far you, know

2015
01:42:51,920 --> 01:42:57,840
Speaker 3: so much on the. Bubble, essentially Would dayton just take their?

2016
01:42:57,880 --> 01:43:00,920
Speaker 3: Spot and it sounds like according To, keith they essentially would.

2017
01:43:00,920 --> 01:43:04,000
Speaker 2: Have this is the other tricky portion of the conference.

2018
01:43:04,040 --> 01:43:07,200
Speaker 2: Tournaments BECAUSE i brought Up. Arkansas Was arkansas hurt because

2019
01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:11,519
Speaker 2: Ole miss made a RUN vcu in a completely different.

2020
01:43:11,560 --> 01:43:14,280
Speaker 2: Scenario and the REASON i say it is because beating

2021
01:43:14,280 --> 01:43:17,080
Speaker 2: Ole miss To arkansas didn't prove anything to the. Committee

2022
01:43:17,200 --> 01:43:19,320
Speaker 2: would have been different if they would have had to

2023
01:43:19,320 --> 01:43:21,960
Speaker 2: Play florida in the semi, finals then you could have, said,

2024
01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:25,559
Speaker 2: well they just knocked off the regular season champions and

2025
01:43:25,600 --> 01:43:29,439
Speaker 2: a potential number one overall. Seed in THE Vcu dayton,

2026
01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:32,599
Speaker 2: thing it's not about a strength of schedule when it's

2027
01:43:32,680 --> 01:43:35,960
Speaker 2: just the numbers of the. Field and If Saint louis

2028
01:43:36,000 --> 01:43:38,960
Speaker 2: would have Beaten dayton, Yesterday Saint louis was in the

2029
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:42,320
Speaker 2: field AND vcu would have had to have Played Saint

2030
01:43:42,360 --> 01:43:45,479
Speaker 2: louis and there wouldn't have been a Big steeler possibility With.

2031
01:43:45,560 --> 01:43:49,720
Speaker 2: Dayton and that's the difference in explaining on saying like

2032
01:43:49,760 --> 01:43:52,960
Speaker 2: An arkansas situation when they had to play An Ole

2033
01:43:53,040 --> 01:43:56,920
Speaker 2: miss team that wasn't above five, hundred so different. Scenarios

2034
01:43:57,120 --> 01:44:00,360
Speaker 2: but FOR, VCU i suppose of your v see you

2035
01:44:00,400 --> 01:44:02,280
Speaker 2: coming in being, like, hey we gotta win.

2036
01:44:02,280 --> 01:44:06,280
Speaker 3: It, YEAH i would assume you, Know Phil Martelli junior

2037
01:44:06,479 --> 01:44:08,720
Speaker 3: is actually their. Coach obviously many people remember that his

2038
01:44:08,800 --> 01:44:11,600
Speaker 3: father was a coach At Saint. JOSE i assume he.

2039
01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:15,320
Speaker 3: Has he certainly did a postgame media availability, today BUT

2040
01:44:15,439 --> 01:44:17,960
Speaker 3: i assume that was the message to the, team we

2041
01:44:18,120 --> 01:44:20,520
Speaker 3: have to. Win we're not going to get. In everything's

01:49:33,920 --> 01:49:39,320
Speaker 2: to follow everything perdue being the two. SEED, yep that's

2136
01:49:39,360 --> 01:49:44,479
Speaker 2: a hindsight twenty twenty thing for me because just looking

2137
01:49:44,520 --> 01:49:48,120
Speaker 2: at the numbers getting the win today Against, michigan by the,

2138
01:49:48,160 --> 01:49:54,320
Speaker 2: way doing so In chicago and with a bunch Of

2139
01:49:54,320 --> 01:49:57,080
Speaker 2: wolverines fans. There it's not like it was In Las

2140
01:49:57,160 --> 01:49:59,400
Speaker 2: vegas or in The Twin, cities and it's Usually chicago

2141
01:49:59,479 --> 01:50:02,600
Speaker 2: Or Indian. Apple but they've they've moved it. Around not

2142
01:50:02,720 --> 01:50:04,920
Speaker 2: that far of a hike For purdue fans to get To,

2143
01:50:05,080 --> 01:50:08,920
Speaker 2: chicago but doing, that getting the win and then being

2144
01:50:08,920 --> 01:50:12,360
Speaker 2: the two seed and looking at the, numbers How. Purdue

2145
01:50:13,080 --> 01:50:15,840
Speaker 2: purdue looks really good on paper when you look at their,

2146
01:50:15,920 --> 01:50:19,240
Speaker 2: NUMBERS i think only four other teams have more quad one.

2147
01:50:19,280 --> 01:50:22,760
Speaker 2: Wins If i'm, wrong it's, five but it's not more than.

2148
01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:26,760
Speaker 2: That So purdue was really good in the. Rankings and

2149
01:50:26,840 --> 01:50:30,320
Speaker 2: because of how weak the back end of the twos

2150
01:50:30,400 --> 01:50:33,560
Speaker 2: were Your yukon. SQUAD i know you're kind of questioning

2151
01:50:33,600 --> 01:50:36,599
Speaker 2: on where it was and the three seeds Of purdue

2152
01:50:36,680 --> 01:50:39,120
Speaker 2: is a part of this, conversation but there was a

2153
01:50:39,160 --> 01:50:42,519
Speaker 2: point where you could have had Three big ten teams

2154
01:50:42,560 --> 01:50:48,479
Speaker 2: be a three, seed and So purdue emerging AND i

2155
01:50:48,520 --> 01:50:51,680
Speaker 2: guess in a, Way Michigan state kind of falls off of.

2156
01:50:51,720 --> 01:50:56,320
Speaker 2: That virginia even emerging as they, did Allowed perdue to

2157
01:50:56,360 --> 01:51:01,040
Speaker 2: get that, final get that two seed with the win,

2158
01:51:01,160 --> 01:51:03,880
Speaker 2: today but they look really good on, paper and then

2159
01:51:03,920 --> 01:51:06,400
Speaker 2: you Beat michigan, today AND i think that's where the you,

2160
01:51:06,400 --> 01:51:07,840
Speaker 2: know the committee ends up favoring The.

2161
01:51:07,840 --> 01:51:11,000
Speaker 3: Boilers, well and let's not bury the lead here, though

2162
01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:15,400
Speaker 3: BECAUSE i referenced the other game in that little sub

2163
01:51:15,479 --> 01:51:18,920
Speaker 3: bracket of the seven to ten, Game miami Versus. Missouri

2164
01:51:19,600 --> 01:51:21,439
Speaker 3: the game is In Saint. LOUIS i talked about how

2165
01:51:21,479 --> 01:51:24,439
Speaker 3: Screwed miami would. BE i, Know purdue's a little bit

2166
01:51:24,479 --> 01:51:27,600
Speaker 3: of an easier Commute West lafayette To Saint, louis BUT

2167
01:51:27,680 --> 01:51:29,080
Speaker 3: i Mean perdue gets the two.

2168
01:51:29,120 --> 01:51:30,240
Speaker 4: Seed they work all year for.

2169
01:51:30,320 --> 01:51:32,600
Speaker 3: That now maybe they're a little bit misseeded as a

2170
01:51:32,640 --> 01:51:36,240
Speaker 3: two and they might have to Face missouri In Saint

2171
01:51:36,280 --> 01:51:36,960
Speaker 3: louis next.

2172
01:51:36,960 --> 01:51:38,400
Speaker 4: Weekend so just something to consider.

2173
01:51:38,479 --> 01:51:40,559
Speaker 2: There, yeah in a couple of other, situations With duke

2174
01:51:40,600 --> 01:51:44,960
Speaker 2: being the number one seed playing In, Greenville North carolina

2175
01:51:45,040 --> 01:51:47,960
Speaker 2: is a six, seed So illinois the three. Seed they're

2176
01:51:47,960 --> 01:51:50,439
Speaker 2: going to be playing In, Greenville South, carolina so you

2177
01:51:50,479 --> 01:51:52,320
Speaker 2: know they're going to Be tarhel, Fans So duke And

2178
01:51:52,400 --> 01:51:54,840
Speaker 2: North carolina fans will have to figure out a way

2179
01:51:55,120 --> 01:51:57,879
Speaker 2: to be nice to each. Other same situation With, Buffalo

2180
01:51:57,960 --> 01:52:00,680
Speaker 2: Michigan state the three, Seed mischigan in the number one

2181
01:52:00,720 --> 01:52:03,559
Speaker 2: overall seed in The, Midwest Michigan state the three seed

2182
01:52:03,600 --> 01:52:06,160
Speaker 2: in The. East they're playing first strong games In, Buffalo

2183
01:52:06,280 --> 01:52:08,479
Speaker 2: so you've got some conference. Rivals now they'll be in

2184
01:52:08,560 --> 01:52:11,160
Speaker 2: different day, parts but still you're going to see them around,

2185
01:52:11,200 --> 01:52:14,240
Speaker 2: town likely for the weekend if you're both of those.

2186
01:52:14,280 --> 01:52:17,240
Speaker 2: Teams so you've you've got a situation there where a

2187
01:52:17,280 --> 01:52:19,200
Speaker 2: couple of schools just can't get away from each. Other

2188
01:52:19,320 --> 01:52:21,920
Speaker 2: Michigan state And michigan going on the same. Site duke

2189
01:52:21,960 --> 01:52:23,400
Speaker 2: And North carolina going to the same.

2190
01:52:23,479 --> 01:52:27,240
Speaker 3: Site, yeah that was. Expected, Also yukon being In philadelphia was.

2191
01:52:27,280 --> 01:52:29,000
Speaker 3: Expected a lot of, these you, know you can Cut.

2192
01:52:29,000 --> 01:52:31,479
Speaker 3: Arizona everybody knew was going to be In San. Diego

2193
01:52:31,520 --> 01:52:33,640
Speaker 3: so some of these you can pre. Predict AND i

2194
01:52:33,640 --> 01:52:36,760
Speaker 3: think it's pretty safe to say we're almost always going

2195
01:52:36,840 --> 01:52:39,160
Speaker 3: to have either A North carolina Or South carolina opening,

2196
01:52:39,240 --> 01:52:43,000
Speaker 3: weekend And duke In North, carolina unless they are an abject,

2197
01:52:43,040 --> 01:52:44,200
Speaker 3: disaster will be at that.

2198
01:52:44,280 --> 01:52:46,760
Speaker 2: SIDE i love it when, cities you, Know, Greenville South

2199
01:52:46,760 --> 01:52:49,920
Speaker 2: carolina not getting the tournament every single. YEAR i like

2200
01:52:49,960 --> 01:52:53,200
Speaker 2: it when it goes To buffalo into those. Places But

2201
01:52:53,240 --> 01:52:54,840
Speaker 2: i'm just going to bring up the point THAT i had.

2202
01:52:54,920 --> 01:52:59,400
Speaker 2: Earlier you're really asking a lot Of West coast teams in.

2203
01:52:59,479 --> 01:53:02,800
Speaker 2: IT i used to think it was FOR, tv BUT

2204
01:53:02,880 --> 01:53:04,920
Speaker 2: i don't think it is as much. Anymore even though

2205
01:53:04,960 --> 01:53:08,519
Speaker 2: you have games all day On saturday And sunday where

2206
01:53:08,520 --> 01:53:10,840
Speaker 2: we've played, games And i'm sure it helps to have

2207
01:53:11,600 --> 01:53:14,679
Speaker 2: two sites in The pacific time, zone and we're based

2208
01:53:14,680 --> 01:53:18,000
Speaker 2: in Southern, california so it's maybe even better for. Us,

2209
01:53:18,360 --> 01:53:22,040
Speaker 2: however just to ship teams out To portland and hoping

2210
01:53:22,080 --> 01:53:24,920
Speaker 2: getzag is a top sixteen team is kind of the

2211
01:53:24,960 --> 01:53:28,519
Speaker 2: feeling THAT i get. There maybe In oregon Or washington

2212
01:53:28,680 --> 01:53:31,360
Speaker 2: school is going to be, good but there are other

2213
01:53:31,720 --> 01:53:35,840
Speaker 2: centralized locations THAT i think can work better when we're

2214
01:53:35,880 --> 01:53:38,680
Speaker 2: trying to set up sites for the first and second round,

2215
01:53:38,760 --> 01:53:41,879
Speaker 2: games so you're not sending all of these teams across

2216
01:53:41,920 --> 01:53:43,959
Speaker 2: the entire. Country it is an interesting.

2217
01:53:44,040 --> 01:53:47,200
Speaker 3: POINT i hadn't really thought of, it but, yeah just

2218
01:53:47,320 --> 01:53:51,320
Speaker 3: with the way the trends are in college, basketball like

2219
01:53:52,000 --> 01:53:55,040
Speaker 3: a boise Of portland places like, that there's not going

2220
01:53:55,120 --> 01:53:58,080
Speaker 3: to be a lot of teams with easy access to those.

2221
01:53:58,120 --> 01:54:00,679
Speaker 3: SITES i will say, This you, know we haven't talked

2222
01:54:00,680 --> 01:54:05,200
Speaker 3: about who got about as advantageous of a regional site

2223
01:54:05,240 --> 01:54:09,680
Speaker 3: as they possibly could. Have The Hawaii rainbows who are

2224
01:54:09,680 --> 01:54:11,960
Speaker 3: playing In. Portland they're going to Play arkansas In round,

2225
01:54:12,000 --> 01:54:14,640
Speaker 3: one SO i would assume they're not going back To.

2226
01:54:14,720 --> 01:54:17,400
Speaker 3: Hawaii but if they, are that's about the shortest flight

2227
01:54:17,439 --> 01:54:20,000
Speaker 3: that they can get on to play an opening round.

2228
01:54:20,040 --> 01:54:23,040
Speaker 2: Game All, right the brackets have been. Set it puts
