1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:01,960 Speaker 1: The volume. 2 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 2: This is Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre. 3 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:19,280 Speaker 1: What is up, Straight Firefam, It's me Jason McIntyre. Straight 4 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: Fire for Monday, March twenty fifth. Oh my gosh, this 5 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: was quite possibly your boy's busiest weekend of the year, 6 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,160 Speaker 1: not just because we just moved, but obviously first round 7 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,960 Speaker 1: of the NCAA tournament. You know, I love that, deep 8 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:40,240 Speaker 1: deep love for the tournament. I was in the Calcutta. 9 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: The sweats are very frigging real for that bad boy. 10 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: We'll talk about Houston in a minute, but it was 11 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: just it was one of those weekends. I'll be brief. 12 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: I know you guys love the dad life stuff. But 13 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: my daughter's team went back to back with the basketball title, 14 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: won an ugly fourteen nine game. Yeah, I know, fourteen nine. 15 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: When they get upgraded to the big court, they put 16 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,440 Speaker 1: on like a high school court in their fifth graders, 17 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: so it's like they're exhausted after like ten trips of 18 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: and down the court, missing a lot of bunnies. And 19 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: then my son's team, seventh grade, we were trying to 20 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,479 Speaker 1: go back to back and we were just up against 21 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: the juggernaut. Guys. I'll say this like i I've always said, 22 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: coach your kids. It's like the most fun thing ever. 23 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: We were heavy underdogs. We have I think the best 24 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: player in the league, but the other team like was 25 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: just stacked. I won't get long story short. They had 26 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: an awesome player who had a broken leg and he 27 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: was supposed to like not really play at all this season, 28 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: according to the dad, and then of course he ends 29 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 1: up playing like a lot. And now here we go 30 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: for the for the postseason tournament and he's like healthy 31 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: and pouring in like twenty points. Oh, you know, a 32 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: little cheesy, but whatever, who cares. We're not going to 33 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: back down. They go up ten to start the fourth 34 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: quarter and I'm like, all right, you know, guys, this 35 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: is it. We got empty the tank and our guys 36 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: storm back, and of course my kid, who I think 37 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: it was like his only shot of the game. He 38 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: might have taken too, he banks in a three to 39 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: cut the lead to two with like a minute left, 40 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: and it was it was just it was incredible, like 41 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: we were in this game. The other team was like 42 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 1: kind of pooping bricks and they it was just awesome, 43 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: and we end up our star player who was phenomenal. 44 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: I put some of the highlights on ig he he 45 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,920 Speaker 1: had like a forty footer for the win, but you 46 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,119 Speaker 1: know it didn't didn't hit iron and it was over. 47 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,639 Speaker 1: But it was one of those where you you take 48 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: you lost, but it felt like a win. Like one 49 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 1: of the parents on my team comes up and goes, Jay, 50 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,040 Speaker 1: if you could keep it within ten, I'll be impressed. 51 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: I mean, these guys, we've seen this team. They're they're stacked, 52 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: and I was it was just our Everybody came up 53 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: afterwards they were like, dude, that was that was so 54 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: fun and youth sports is fun. But of course the 55 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: problem is I'm missing the JMU duke game as this 56 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: is happening. And on Saturday I had to miss or no, 57 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,440 Speaker 1: Sunday morning, I had to miss the ending of the 58 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: Marquette whoever the hell they were playing. Marquette was playing Colorado, 59 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: and you know that's a Calcutta team we have and 60 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: I keep asking the scorers. But like at the high school, 61 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: they try to give you not good WiFi, so the 62 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: kids aren't on Wi Fi all day. So there's like 63 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: I can't watch the game as I'm coaching. The kids 64 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 1: could barely give me updates. Obviously, Marquette came through late. 65 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: But so the youth basketball season is over. My weekends 66 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 1: will get a little looser. We still have soccer and 67 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: you know, kid do volleyball and stuff. But the tournament 68 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 1: is going to be lit. And the reason is because 69 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: it's basically been chalk madness, not March madness. Chalk madness, folks. 70 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: Only four times before this year have we seen all 71 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: the top two seeds advance in every region. I have 72 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: the dates here for you. It was twenty nineteen, was 73 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: the last time, with Zion right two thousand and nine, 74 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: then nineteen ninety five, in nineteen eighty nine, those were 75 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: the only four teams that the top two seeds advanced. 76 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: And now we got it again as Houston wins and survives. 77 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: Last night a crazy game against Texas A and M, 78 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 1: and I think that was it gave me an instant headache. 79 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: I'm not even kidding. It's you know, listen. I don't 80 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: need to give you guys the dollar figures, but we 81 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: are heavily invested in Houston. We love their odds, we'd 82 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: like their chances. We think they're great matchups. I think 83 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: they match up extremely well with Duke unless they get 84 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: a poor whistle, you know, and let Duke shoot forty 85 00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: some on free throws like A and M got. But 86 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 1: this Houston team is good. And when you're up by 87 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: thirteen late in the game and you win probabilities ninety 88 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,840 Speaker 1: nine point nine percent and you end up going overtime, 89 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: you just and everybody's foul. And I was, it was 90 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: a sweat. So we're pot committed on Houston, Marquette, and 91 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: Iowa State. I would love if all three of them 92 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: win in the sweet sixteen. I'm fairly certain we turn 93 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: a tiny, tiny, tiny profit. Obviously, we need them. 94 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 2: To go further. 95 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: I don't really know where to start other than the 96 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: chalk factor, because I'll say this, the last time the 97 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: top two seeds advance was twenty nineteen. That was the 98 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: Zion Williamson duke team, which everybody loved. Zion was a 99 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 1: ratings juggernaut, and I still vividly remember Zion against SPARTI 100 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: watching it and being just crestfallen. Michigan State pulled it 101 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: out and Zion lost by one. It was I was like, God, 102 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 1: the stinks. Now. The twenty nineteen final four was good. 103 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: If you remember, that was the year of Virginia beats 104 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: Auburn in like a controversial. I think there was late 105 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: free throws by Kyle Guy, and then Virginia beat Texas 106 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: Tech in an overtime game, and then Natty after Texas 107 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: Tech beats Party. It was like a good final four, 108 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: but not a ton of juice. I mean close games, right, 109 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: But there weren't like major, big time stars in the tournament, 110 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: and we missed Zion not having that. Now here's the 111 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: thing I was gonna ask Robl like, Okay, we got 112 00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,080 Speaker 1: a great Sweet sixteen lineup. Looks awesome. I'm fired up, 113 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: I'm excited. I can't wait for Thursday Friday. But you 114 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: look around, guys, I'm being this is just real talk. 115 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 1: Is there one top ten draft pick left in the tournament? 116 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: I'm just talking a top ten. I might even say 117 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 1: top five, Like, is there one top ten pick left? 118 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: I'll be honest, I don't know the answer to that, 119 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,720 Speaker 1: but I would lean probably not. I mean, listen, everybody 120 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: loves Zachi d the Purdue Monster. At seven to four, 121 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: I cannot see anyone take it the top ten. I 122 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: just don't you go down down the list like Yukon's 123 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: got some dudes. I don't know if they're seven to 124 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: two guy is gonna be a top ten pick. Here's 125 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 1: the thing about Yukon. They're blasting people off the floor 126 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: in the first like I don't know, five six minutes, 127 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: so I've barely watched them. Their games are unwatchable because 128 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: they're murdering people, and so they kind of feel like 129 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: a total train right now, and they're just gonna maul everyone. 130 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: San Diego State could slow it down and feasibly hang around. 131 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: But how we just saw this in the National Championship 132 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: and it was Yukon all day. And now the Yukon team, 133 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 1: you could argue, is like better in the San Diego 134 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: State team is a little worse. I don't see how 135 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: that's competitive. I think Houston Duke would be a good game. 136 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: I don't think Philip Kowski from Duke is a top 137 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: ten pick. I do like SHD a lot, and boy 138 00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: he had a big, big, big time bucket larn overtime. 139 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: I like his game. Marquette has Kolic, who you know, 140 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: I'm a massive fan of I just I don't. I 141 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: don't know, guys, I don't think Rob, do you do 142 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 1: you think there's a top now? I haven't looked at 143 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: mock drafts, so Rob might hit me with that, Oh, 144 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: this guy's still hanging around and I missed him. But 145 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: even if you if you looked at the game Saturday, 146 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: you know North Carolina's Baycott is like twenty three years old, 147 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: and you know R. J. Davis is old like Caleb Love. 148 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: Nobody wants to draft him in Arizona. I don't really 149 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: see it. I like Dalton Connect, and he's probably the 150 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: best talent left in the tournament, the kid from Tennessee. 151 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: But we saw him at time struggle against the Texas defenders. 152 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: And you know, the SEC has proven to be immense frauds, 153 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: So I don't think anybody's like fearful of Tennessee, and 154 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: I don't maybe Connect built up an amazing year in 155 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: the SEC just clowning folks. I think he's very good, 156 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: but I don't know if he's top ten rob. It's weird. 157 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: We get a lot of top seeds. We've got a 158 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 1: very very good competitive lineup for Thursday, but we don't 159 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: have a lot of juicy players left.

Now. 189 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 3: I'm looking at one mock draft. I go to one website. 190 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,599 Speaker 3: It's kind of like an aggregate of several websites just 191 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 3: to give you an idea of who might go where. 192 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 3: Connect is the only guy that they have in the 193 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 3: top ten right now on this website. And I'm looking 194 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 3: here through the mock draft Connect, I didn't. I forgot. 195 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 3: He's a senior. He's been around for a hot second. 196 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. 197 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 3: So if you're looking at the rest of the top 198 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 3: ten on this aggregate mock site NBA draft on Net, 199 00:09:55,960 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 3: it's freshman international, freshman, freshman, freshman international, freshman, freshman, one senior. 200 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 3: So that therein lies the problem with college basketball for 201 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 3: right now, at least, all of the best players, or 202 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 3: the guys who are going to pro who are going 203 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 3: to profile as the best NBA players are usually eliminated 204 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 3: by now in today's college basketball era, like the transfer 205 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 3: portal NIL has made it so that the best teams 206 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 3: usually are veteran Leyden twenty three, twenty four, hell even 207 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 3: twenty five year old players up and down that roster, 208 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 3: and that's why there's so money come crunch time in 209 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 3: the tournament. I have a soft spot for Zach Edi 210 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 3: because of I think he's just a phenomenal college player. 211 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 3: I think he's one of the great college players that 212 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 3: we've ever seen. And where he have had more tournament success, 213 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 3: I think that'd be more widely accepted. You know, back 214 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 3: to back unanimous Player of the Year, back to back 215 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 3: unanimous All American, Like that doesn't happen in college basketball. Yeah, 216 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 3: and so I would like to think that maybe he 217 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 3: could sneak into the back half of the top ten 218 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: because suddenly center and the big man has become in 219 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 3: vogue again in the NBA. But to your point, like, 220 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 3: it's I don't see the star power no in this 221 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 3: top sixteen Sweet sixteen now. 222 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just not there. Yeah. Perdue and Edy are interesting. 223 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: They destroyed Grambling and then they eviscerated Utah State. Listen, 224 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,600 Speaker 1: you win your first game by twenty eight, in your 225 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: second by what thirty nine? You're doing something right. Now, 226 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: here's the thing. Gonzaga is gonna be tough. Gonzagas look good, 227 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: but they're not a great team. They already faced off 228 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 1: early in the season. I believe it was in the 229 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: Maui Classic. And you know, of course Perdue wins this 230 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,920 Speaker 1: at a neutral site. Let's see how Edy did. Oh 231 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 1: he had twenty five and nine and three blocks. Gonzaga 232 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: has yet they don't really have the size to hang, 233 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 1: but they're you know, a little better on the wings. 234 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: I don't really have a play there. Ken Palm has 235 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 1: it Perdue by four. You guys, remember last week we 236 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 1: had clevta on and he talked a lot about ken 237 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 1: Pom and I know a lot of you guys jumped 238 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: on Ken Palm and looked at him. We're like, oh, 239 00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 1: this is interesting, blah blah blah. Okay, sixteen teams left, 240 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: all right, Four of the sixteen thirteen of them are 241 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: in the top fifteen in kenball. It has been the 242 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 1: teams that great out the best, according to the stats, 243 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 1: are dominating this tournament and is not even close. The 244 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 1: only teams that choked Auburn a ghastly late choke, a 245 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: game they sorely regret given what happened to Yale against 246 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: San Diego State. But other than Auburn, like, I don't 247 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: really think Baylor choked. I had Clempson beating them. And 248 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: the one number that matters more than anything so far 249 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: has been defensive efficiency. And the only team yeah, hold 250 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: let me scool day. Yeah, the only team outside of 251 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: the top eighty in defense left is Alabama at one 252 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: hundred and two. And that's after they survived Grand Canyon, 253 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: who should not have even been there. Oh my gosh, 254 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: Graham Canyon with a massive, well not a massive upset 255 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: and upset of Saint Mary's. That one hurt me survivor. 256 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: It's my first survivor did not go well in March 257 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: Madness lessons learned. Let's just say that. But basically, yeah, 258 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: the teams that play good defense, look at that if 259 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: you and Ken Palm like I'm a subscriber, but if 260 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: you look at the adjusted defense, I mean, basically, it's 261 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: here's what happens in March. Every possession matters more right offense. 262 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: These are teams you don't know, well, you're an unfamiliar arenas, 263 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 1: unfamiliar settings, playing a weird times of day, and defense 264 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: travels offense not so much. And number one in defense 265 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: is Houston. Number two is Iowa State. Number three is Tennessee. 266 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 1: Those teams look really freaking good. We could talk about lines. 267 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: I don't know, Roblick. The sweet sixteed is good because 268 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: there's only two games Thursday, two games Friday. But do 269 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 1: you have any early leans when you look at the 270 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: way the bracket shakes out and the lines. 271 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,520 Speaker 3: Well, Quickly, before we get into that, I just want 272 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 3: to say that to all of the people on social 273 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 3: media who've been tagging me on stuff. I'm sure you've 274 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 3: been getting tagged too, but you're too busy to really 275 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 3: check your Twitter like that saying, oh, this is such 276 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 3: a boring tournament. These are all the favorites I hate 277 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 3: when it's this chalk. It's supposed to be March madness 278 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 3: for a reason. And let me just say, if you 279 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 3: are college basketball, and I might say the NCAA, but 280 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 3: CBS and Turner Sports, you have to be loving this 281 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 3: result right now because and I hate to harp on 282 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 3: this a game, but we talked about it last week 283 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 3: last season, the foot opening round was the highest rated 284 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 3: opening weekend in NCAA tournament history. But as the Cinderellas 285 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 3: kept advancing, the ratings have going down and down and down. 286 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 3: The Elite A down fourteen percent, Final Four down seventeen percent, 287 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 3: National Title Game downnineteen percent, and it was the least 288 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 3: watched title game ever. This year. We still haven't got 289 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 3: the numbers fully. But the opening round again, the highest 290 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 3: rated opening round again. But this year, to your point, 291 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 3: all the big dogs are still left, all the heavy hitters. 292 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 3: We're not gonna get an fau versus, you know San 293 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 3: die I don't think you know San Diego State in 294 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,760 Speaker 3: the Final four. That's not gonna happen, right, you know. 295 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 3: So we should be hopefully getting the resurgence at least 296 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 3: on the viewership mark that college basketball has sorely needed 297 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 3: because the way the sport is evolved the fact that 298 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 3: all of the best NBA prospects are no longer featured 299 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 3: late in the tournament like they may have used to 300 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 3: have been as recently as five or six years ago. 301 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 3: What you can hope for, then, if you're not gonna 302 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 3: get the NBA guys at that level, that at least 303 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 3: you get the best teams and right now at least 304 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 3: through the sweet sixteen of all the best teams. So this, 305 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 3: this is what we should be hoping for is college basketball? 306 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and if you look at the lines, that it 307 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 1: speaks to that Iowa State favored by two over Illinois. 308 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: Illinois has been a truck the first two rounds. Alabama 309 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 1: is a four point dog against North Carolina Arizona seven 310 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 1: over Clemson. That feels a little rich. I gotta see 311 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: where these games are because I think Arizona is in 312 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,840 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, so they'll have a massive home court advantage. 313 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: Are Gonzaga Purdue produce four and a half? I would 314 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: look at Gonzaga there just taking the points. I don't 315 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: I don't know that they'll win. Tennessee two and a 316 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: half over Creighton. That's going to be a great game. 317 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: I like this Creighton team. I have futures on a 318 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: lot of these teams left. I have futures on Creighton. 319 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: I don't think they could win the title. Marquette six 320 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 1: and a half against NC State. Again, we're heavy on Marquette. 321 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: I like Marquette a lot. Colek is fun, Cam Jones. 322 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 1: I like that matchup for them. NC State's got the bigs, 323 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: but their guards is not great. And then Houston minus 324 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: four over Duke. That is interesting. The knock on Duke 325 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,920 Speaker 1: has been that they're soft and if you push them around, 326 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,359 Speaker 1: they will will Tennessee push them around last year, UNC 327 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: pushed them around a couple times this year, and Houston 328 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 1: is gonna bully. But I'm just telling you, if the 329 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,479 Speaker 1: refs are gonna call it the way they did Houston, 330 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: Texas A and M I don't love Houston chances now. 331 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: I believe that game is in Texas. Duke travels well 332 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: and has grads everywhere, but I think Houston should have 333 00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: a monster home court edge. Let me just check. I 334 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 1: haven't seen where all the games are rob have you 335 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:29,439 Speaker 1: seen that yet or no? 336 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 3: I mean I'm sure if I did enough. Looking like 337 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 3: on ESPN, CBS Sports dot Com, you'll you'll see the 338 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 3: way that the brackets are set up. But it's like 339 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 3: you have to click through twelve different features and there's 340 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 3: always a pop up, and it seems like it's it's 341 00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 3: less user friendly than it used to be. You know, 342 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 3: technology used to be our friend. Now is just getting 343 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,959 Speaker 3: me to buy more stuff, So it's a little bit tricky. 344 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 2: Bye. 345 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: Bye bye. I did not watch. Oh I did watch 346 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:58,240 Speaker 1: a little of the women's tournament, so obviously I didn't 347 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: get into much. But I did have somebody tweet me 348 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 1: and I again, I'm not on Twitter really this weekend 349 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:08,399 Speaker 1: that much. But LSU in trouble at halftime, losing to 350 00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,399 Speaker 1: like Middle Tennessee or something. I was like, what so 351 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: I turn it over and they were down at the half, 352 00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: and I, you know, saw some highlence. I was like, oh, 353 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 1: they don't look great. But then you know, I see 354 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 1: the final score and they win handily, you know, or 355 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: setting up the LSU Caitlin Clark thing. But the only 356 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: thing on the women's side that had some juices weekend 357 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: was the coach of LSU, Kim Mulki, went on this 358 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,400 Speaker 1: rant about the Washington Post doing a hit piece against her. 359 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 1: Here's the weird thing. The piece isn't even out yet. 360 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: She's trying to pull like a Donald Trump type deal 361 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 1: where you get so much I'm gonna hammer the piece 362 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,199 Speaker 1: before it even comes out. I'm gonna get people against it. 363 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna come after it. And I think she's almost 364 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 1: put a light on it before the story's even coming out. 365 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: I don't just could backfire on her. But again, I 366 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: have no clue what the story is. I don't really 367 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: care that much. I did find the interesting, Rob. She goes, 368 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 1: this reporter has been hounding me for two years to 369 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: try to get me to sit down and this and 370 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 1: that and this. Two years he's been asking me interviews 371 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: and blah blah blah. And then he gave me forty 372 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: eight hours to respond and and I was like, well, 373 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,399 Speaker 1: that that's kind of interesting. He's been asking you for 374 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 1: an interview for two years. He's been consistently trying to 375 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,400 Speaker 1: get you with questions, and then he gives you a deadline. 376 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: And that's a problem, Like you've had two years to 377 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 1: sit down with this guy or not. That's fine. I 378 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: don't have people beating down my door to interview me, 379 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: you know, for whatever skeletons or I've got in the closet. 380 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: But I don't know, Rob, did that come off as 381 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 1: you weird to you? He Hey, he's been trying to 382 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: talk to me for two years and then he gave 383 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: me a deadline. And I just come on, you're trying 384 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 1: to mess with our team now. And I'm like, what 385 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 1: do you want him to do? This story July, like 386 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,359 Speaker 1: you want to maximize how many people are gonna see it, 387 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 1: and it's during the women's basketball tournament, probably right in 388 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 1: front of the Iowa game, right, So I just thought 389 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 1: that was kind of awkward, although I don't maybe I'm 390 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: being weird. 391 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:05,640 Speaker 3: No, I agree with you. I didn't understand her tactic, 392 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 3: Like to your point, the article is not out yet, 393 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 3: so to go on the offensive and threatening to sue 394 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 3: the Washington Post and the reporter if this quote false 395 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 3: story gets published, it's like, well, we don't even know 396 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 3: what's in it yet, so bye by. With her doing that, 397 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 3: it's almost like back in the day, remember mixtapes in rap, 398 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 3: and I don't know they come out now, but I 399 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 3: don't check very much as they used to. But it's like, oh, 400 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 3: fifty cent drop a mixtape. You know, he's taking shots 401 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 3: of jay Z and things like that, and jay Z 402 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 3: talks about it as summer jam, and you're like, well, 403 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 3: I haven't heard the fifty cent mixtape yet, but if 404 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 3: jay Z's responded to and I really got to hear it. 405 00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 3: And so for Kim Mokey to go out there on 406 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 3: the offensive, which was something that was only bubbling over 407 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,680 Speaker 3: on Twitter, like I think Pat Forty was the guy 408 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 3: who's like, hey, there's some buzz that there's a wappo 409 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 3: out article coming out, so keep an eye on that. 410 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 3: And all she has to do if she gets asked 411 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 3: about it is I have no comment. I'm focused on 412 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 3: the tournament. Done deal. Story's dead at least until that 413 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 3: article comes out. But because she goes on this prepared 414 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 3: rant for three and a half minutes with the binder 415 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 3: in front of her, then after they beat Middle Tennessee, 416 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,119 Speaker 3: she's asked about it again, so again it's a story. 417 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 3: So now you're on like day three or day four 418 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,160 Speaker 3: of this without the article even coming out, that people 419 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 3: are already talking about it. So I'm very excited to 420 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 3: read it. I honestly get the feeling that, because of 421 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 3: the way this is being build up, whatever is in 422 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,679 Speaker 3: that article will be disappointed because it's like I've been 423 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 3: hyping it up, hyping it up, hyping it up, and 424 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 3: it's only gonna let you down. But yeah, I don't 425 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 3: really understand her tactic on that one. 426 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, very awkward. We could wrap up with an NFL 427 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: story that popped over the weekend. Again, NFL free agency 428 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: pretty much done, but I did see Lugerius Snead. Remember 429 00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: the Chiefs were going to tag him. Well, they ended 430 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: up trading him to the Tennessee Titans. Lugarious Sneed, who 431 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 1: was just a play making superstar cornerback locked up Tyreek 432 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: Hill had a great, well pretty great Super Bowl, I think, right. 433 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: I think he also had a huge playoff game against 434 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:15,080 Speaker 1: the Ravens. Forcing it was he the one who forced 435 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: a fumble or was it McDuffie, No, that was him, 436 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 1: That was Sneed. Yeah, so Steed listen, Steve's a very 437 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: good player. Thing is he wants top dollar and you 438 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 1: gotta pay McDuffie soon. You had to pay Chris Jones. 439 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 1: They had to make a business decision and they traded Steve. 440 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: But here's what's the interesting thing. All I kept reading 441 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: was Sneid could fetch a second round pick in the 442 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four draft, and then the Chiefs sets themselves 443 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 1: up for three picks in the first two rounds and 444 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,439 Speaker 1: they'd be able to replenish the offensive line, get themselves 445 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 1: a receiver. They would have options. Right. All they could 446 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: get was a twenty twenty five to third and a 447 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four to seventh, So that jumped out to 448 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: me as Oh, I guess Sneid isn't seen in the 449 00:22:55,560 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: market as valuable as what the media and fans perceive 450 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: him as. And at the same time, how much of 451 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: Sneed's success is thanks to Spagnolo's great defense, which is 452 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: so mean. Spagnola is just an awesome defensive coordator. We 453 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: know this, and I don't know. It'll be interesting to 454 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 1: see what happens. But then I decided, oh, let me 455 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 1: just see what's going on with the Titans. I haven't 456 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: paid attention to them at all. They got rid of Raybul, 457 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,919 Speaker 1: they got a new coach. It's weird. They've spent so 458 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: much money. It's almost like they're a team that won 459 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: the lottery. 460 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 3: You know. 461 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 1: Let's say you win like fifty million in the lottery. You're 462 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 1: just gonna go out buy shit. You're gonna buy a house, 463 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,520 Speaker 1: you go buy buy a poorische Ferrari, whatever you do. 464 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: You're gonna buy stuff. You're gonna be flexing expensive suit. 465 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 1: You just are. That's what you do if you come 466 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: into fifty million dollars. This is who the Titans got 467 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 1: in the off season. Yeah, you might not be aware 468 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: of all these guys. They got Tony Pollard the running 469 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: back to replace Derrick Henry. They got Calvin Ridley. I 470 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: don't I don't know how I missed that. I guess 471 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 1: we might have talked about it. But they got Calvin Ridley. 472 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: So the receiver room is like really good now, right, 473 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 1: Ridley newk Hopkins and Treylon Burks if he can ever 474 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: stay healthy. So Will Levis all of a sudden, he's 475 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: got some guys to throw to. Now his running game 476 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: is They improve the offensive line with the center, they 477 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: got Cushion Barry, and then on defense they stole Kenneth 478 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: Murray from the Chargers. I liked him. The pro football 479 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,400 Speaker 1: focused grades did not, but anytime I watched a Charger game, 480 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: he was around the football. And now they add Stneat 481 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: So they've added like five maybe six starters. Okay, it's like, 482 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: all right, what are they? I don't know what they are. 483 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: If Will Levis is good, maybe they're a eight nine 484 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: win team. If the Jaggs regress a little bit or 485 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 1: don't improve, and if the the Texans don't improve, maybe 486 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: the Tights are good. I don't know. I don't know 487 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 1: what to make a Will Levis rob What should we 488 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: make of him. 489 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 3: I don't know what you can make a Will Levis Like. 490 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 3: Will Levis is the guy who looks like he should 491 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 3: be the prototypical NFL quarterback and then just hasn't performed 492 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 3: like an NFL quarterback. Really, like he broke onto the scene. 493 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 3: You remember that game in October against with the Falcons, 494 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,680 Speaker 3: four touchdowns, no pick. I think it was his first start, 495 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,360 Speaker 3: and it was like, oh shit, the Titans got themselves 496 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,199 Speaker 3: a quarterback. Will Levis famously fell in the draft and 497 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 3: everyone's gonna regret it, the same way they did with 498 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 3: Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady and Will Levis is the guy. 499 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,200 Speaker 3: And then the next two games zero touchdowns, two picks. 500 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,439 Speaker 3: Then he pops back up against Jacksonville in a loss. 501 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,159 Speaker 3: Theyn't score fourteen points, but in that game he was 502 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 3: thirteen of seventeen, two touchdowns, no picks, Like, all right, 503 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:32,879 Speaker 3: Will Levis is back. And then it's you know, zero touchdowns, yeah, 504 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 3: one touchdown, one touchdown, one pick, one pick. Finishes out 505 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 3: the season. He gets hurt midway through two for six 506 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:45,640 Speaker 3: for sixteen yards against Houston, and so the final numbers 507 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,879 Speaker 3: don't look bad like eight touchdowns, four picks, fifty eight 508 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 3: percent completion percentage until you realize that all of his damage, 509 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,960 Speaker 3: for the most part, was done in his very first 510 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 3: start when no one knew anything about him, and a 511 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 3: game against Jacksonville where they got their doors blown off. 512 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:06,199 Speaker 3: So I don't know what Will Levis is. I know 513 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 3: that he has the tools and he has what is 514 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 3: it they called the traits that you look for an 515 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 3: NFL quarterback toolsy. But if he is not at least, 516 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 3: you know, a middle of the road type quarterback, if 517 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 3: he's not at least Derek Carr level, then this was 518 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 3: the dumbest offseason the Titans could have had because you're 519 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 3: throwing all of this money in the hat under the 520 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 3: guys that you have your quarterback locked up on a 521 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,479 Speaker 3: rookie deal, so you spin all around him. If your 522 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 3: quarterback is not good, though, then you're just throwing money 523 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 3: away to be mediocre and you're gona have no cap 524 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 3: space and you're gonna be stuck in purgatory. Six seven 525 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 3: wins for the fortup of future. 526 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: Well, I guess you could look at it this way. 527 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 1: If the Tennessee Titans go five and twelve, well, the 528 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: good news is Will Levis ain't the guy and the 529 00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 1: good news is you're probably drafting top five right so 530 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: you get your next quarterback.

You know, 555 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 1: you got some guys to throw to. And since I 556 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 1: brought up shaduur Standers, we can wrap up with this. 557 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,199 Speaker 1: It's weird now that the draft is coming up. All 558 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: of a sudden, Dion Sanders is popping off about his son, Shaudure, 559 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: and he's saying some really questionable stuff. And when I 560 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: say questionable, I'm looking at it from an NFL team 561 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: vantage point, and it's like, okay, um. All signs are 562 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 1: pointing to Dion Sanders pulling an ELI, which he's actually said, 563 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: and sending his son to a certain school as opposed 564 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: to wanting to go to wherever he's drafted, which is fine. 565 00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: I'm totally into that, but this is next level and 566 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: wasn't discussed. Rob what happens. If your team drafts Shadure 567 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: Sanders and Dion Sanders want decides. Oh, you know I do. 568 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: I do want to coach in the NFL. Whoever that 569 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: head coaches might as well start to pack his backs, 570 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: because as soon as things go awry, you know Dion 571 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: is gonna be angling to coach his son in the NFL. 572 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: I don't think that's ever been done. I'd have to 573 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 1: double check, but if you're telling me it's never been done. 574 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: This is kind of like Lebron playing with his son 575 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: in the NBA. That's so cool. You gotta watch that. Well, yeah, 576 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: I would watch Dion and his son on an NFL team. 577 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: I think it would be fascinating. Dion the coach and 578 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 1: his son in the quarterback. Don't you think that would 579 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: be super cool? You're instantly buying a massive TV market, right, 580 00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: everybody's gonna tune in. Your games are gonna be mussy, 581 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: probably gonna fill up the stadium. Whoever drafts should dour 582 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 1: might as well lock in Dion as their next head 583 00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:03,240 Speaker 1: co And I just wonder, Rob, if you're drafting in 584 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: the top three and you're the GM and the coach, 585 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 1: are you like, hey, guys, we draft Shador, We're probably 586 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: drafting our replacements too, because ultimately Dion's gonna want to 587 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: call the shots. He's already on record saying he doesn't 588 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: as one as kid to go to play in a 589 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 1: cold city. Like it's a little crazy the way he's 590 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,719 Speaker 1: already manipulating this, and Rob it's a year out Schedro 591 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:30,719 Speaker 1: could could have a bad year and regress and be like, who, 592 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. This has happened to a lot of 593 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 1: quarterbacks where you have a great year and everybody expects 594 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 1: you to go at the top and then oh wait 595 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,719 Speaker 1: a minute, they're regressing a little bit. So I don't know. 596 00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 1: I just I don't love how Dion's handling this. It 597 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: seems like he's putting a lot of undue pressure on 598 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,719 Speaker 1: his son, and it's not totally different from what's happening 599 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 1: with Lebron and Bronny with the whole draft stuff. I'm 600 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 1: not trying to make it a negative. I just I 601 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: don't know that I would play it that way. Just 602 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: think about what you're saying about your son. You're already 603 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 1: talking about the draft, You're already talking about hand picking 604 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: the team. He's still got another year at Colorado. I 605 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: don't know, Rob, what am I missing here? 606 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,479 Speaker 3: Well, you also forget that he said that between Shador 607 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 3: Sanders and Travis Hunter that they will both go in 608 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 3: the top four of the upcoming NFL draft. He said 609 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 3: one of them will go number one, depending on need, 610 00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 3: the other one will go into lower than four. 611 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: No, well, it's not Travis Hunter. 612 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 3: Nobody's taking receiver right exactly. Well, he hasn't shown to 613 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 3: be an elite receiver or a corner. You know in college. 614 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 3: He's a great collegiate player, but you know, he's not 615 00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 3: polished as a route runner and defensively, he's got great talent. 616 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 3: But I mean, we saw what Stanford did to that kid, 617 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 3: like it was, it was terrible. You know, he's just 618 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: he needs to focus on one side of the ball 619 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 3: to really excel the next level. But let's just play 620 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 3: this game with Shador Sanders. So it can't be a 621 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 3: cold weather team, and it's got to be a team 622 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 3: that's gonna be drafting in the top four. So immediately 623 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 3: you cross off all of the Eastern Seaboard teams this 624 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 3: except for what the Dolphins, and I don't think they'll 625 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 3: be drafting in the top four, Rightky, you can't go 626 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 3: the NFC Cowboys, Eagles, Giants, Commander, I mean the Cowboys. 627 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 3: I don't think we're driving top four, So they're out. 628 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 3: NFC North, the Lion's playing a dome, but they won't 629 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 3: be picking in the top four. Everyone else is cold 630 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:20,400 Speaker 3: weather or has a quarterback. The AFC North has their quarterbacks, 631 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 3: and it's all very cold weather AFC South. The Texans 632 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 3: got a quarterback, the Jacks got their quarterback, the Colts 633 00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 3: drafted their quarterback. Maybe it's Will Levis's Tennessee Titans. Maybe 634 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 3: maybe that's where he's angling to because if you look 635 00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 3: down the teams that fit this very narrow criteria of 636 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 3: terrible but also warm weather, you're you're left with, I mean, 637 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: just quickly, the Titans, potentially my Raiders, okay what I mean, 638 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 3: the Panthers but they already got their quarterback, and I 639 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 3: guess the Cardinals, but they have a quarterback. So where 640 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 3: exactly is this sweet spot for shador stand where he's 641 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 3: gonna avoid cold weather at all costs and also find 642 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 3: himself being taken in the top of the draft. 643 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 1: Well that and that's the problem. Here's the thing. Okay, 644 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 1: let's just they're not they're not drafted them. But let's 645 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 1: say the Rams get him. Stafford decides, I'm out. Okay, 646 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: let's say the Rams get him. The Rams in the 647 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: playoffs could hypothetically have to go to Chicago to Green 648 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: Bay to Philadelphia. What do you think the weather's like 649 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: in January're gonna have to win those games anyway, So like, 650 00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 1: I get it, like I like, you know, I enjoyed 651 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: my time in Philadelphia or outside Philly. I like living 652 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: in New York. It was fine. Then I get the 653 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: job offer from Fox, I move across the country. I've 654 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: tasted the warm weather. Now I have zero interesting going back. None. Okay, 655 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 1: but that's different. I'm not I'm not like a quarterback 656 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: who has to play playoff games at certain places. Like honestly, 657 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 1: my family wants to do a ski trip, pay guys, 658 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 1: I'll show for you around or I'm just not going, 659 00:33:57,720 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: you know like that, that's my vibe on ski trips. 660 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: And yeah, I miss out some dad's go on dad's 661 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: ski trips, and you know they know I'm not gonna go, 662 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: so I miss out on those. And then the daddy 663 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 1: daughter's ski trips, so I miss out on kind of stinks, 664 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 1: But like, I just don't want to go skiing. I 665 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: don't like cold weather. Just may I softy. I don't know. 666 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: I do want to go to Iceland, but like in 667 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 1: the spring, not when it's like icy, you know, like freezing. 668 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to do that. I don't know, Robert, 669 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: It just it strikes me as odd. Like listen, if 670 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: you go anywhere in the AFC, your playoff path is 671 00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: definitely going through Kansas City. It probably will go through Buffalo, 672 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,759 Speaker 1: and it might go through Baltimore, and who knows, maybe 673 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,479 Speaker 1: there's a Cincinnati Bengals cold Like those are old cold weather. 674 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 1: So what are you saying now, Deon? I want my 675 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 1: son to go to a warm weather team. And I'm 676 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:44,280 Speaker 1: just gonna say automatically, I want him go to Tampa 677 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:47,320 Speaker 1: or Carolina. Like do you want him to go to Carolina? 678 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:48,760 Speaker 1: Do you really want to go to Carolina? 679 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 3: Think about that, sir, do you really want to go 680 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 3: to Carolina? 681 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 1: I'm just doing too much, deonn Like, dial it back 682 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: and I I'll tell you what. There was a video. 683 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 3: I know that you were busy over the weekend, but 684 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 3: there was a video that was trending on Saturday, night. 685 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 3: It was peak Colorado Buffalo's football because it was Shador 686 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 3: Sanders in their their dome whatever, doing their their practice 687 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 3: and he hits this beautiful twenty yard out route and 688 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 3: it's like, oh, yeah, you can be seeing a lot 689 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 3: more of this this season. Go buffs, And every single 690 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 3: comment is like, who's gonna stop this? Every single comment, Oh, 691 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 3: it's that defender that came flying from the weak side 692 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 3: that would have sacked him before he got the pass off, 693 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:24,919 Speaker 3: Like all anyone in Colorado was talking about. 694 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: Look at Shador. 695 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 3: He's got three thousand yards and forty touchdowns and three picks. 696 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 3: He also got sacked fifty two times, and that's. 697 00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 1: Why they like. 698 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:33,879 Speaker 3: Good luck. 699 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,920 Speaker 1: I like those who's stopping the well, I don't like them. 700 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,839 Speaker 1: I do think there are some funny people out there 701 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,600 Speaker 1: who's stopping this and it's like reality or you know whatever. 702 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, that's uh, I don't know. Listen Shador. I 703 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: mean I don't think. I don't. My gut would tell 704 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 1: me that if they open it up, the Georgia quarterback 705 00:35:49,880 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 1: probably goes one. He's looked the part. But I'll never 706 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 1: forget that. I lost money on the SEC title game. 707 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: They barely had him throw in the football. It was 708 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,959 Speaker 1: a weird ass game plan. They lose, but then again, 709 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 1: I did like McCarthy a lot more than everyone else, 710 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: and now McCarthy's like maybe going sixth overall. 711 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 2: Who knows. 712 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 1: Anyways, it's a lengthy Monday pod. We back tomorrow probably 713 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:15,160 Speaker 1: have some crystallized picks for the Sweet sixteen. I saw 714 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 1: Connecticut open up at nine and a half and I 715 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 1: definitely took that instantly. Connecticut at nine and a half 716 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: against San Diego State. I do like a moneyline parlay 717 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: of Iowa State and Marquette. I think I like Tennessee, 718 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: but I'm not certain. I think I want to take 719 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: in Zacha with the points. I'll all say is this, 720 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 1: we saw favorites totally dominated. I think I saw the 721 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 1: top two seeds were something like fourteen and two against 722 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:45,880 Speaker 1: the spread, ridiculous numbers. We would certainly see some regression 723 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: as you're going to pay a little price for favorites 724 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,720 Speaker 1: such as Arizona playing out here in LA. I'm curious 725 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 1: if Clemson could give them a game. I do think 726 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: Clemson has the pieces, and I think Arizona a little 727 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 1: over hyped after their wins, so I would take I'll 728 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 1: take a slice of Clemson plus seven. I don't know 729 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 1: what to do with Alabama Carolina. Like a fool, I 730 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,879 Speaker 1: thought Michigan State could hang with Carolina. That was way 731 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: way off. But you know, obviously, I'm pot committed to 732 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 1: Houston for the Calcutta and I'm thrilled at Marquett's that 733 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: big of a line. But I just worry about those 734 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,840 Speaker 1: beefy boys inside for NC State. Mister Burns, Oh my gosh, 735 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,439 Speaker 1: he's a dancing teddy bear. As I say. Anyways, that's 736 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:28,240 Speaker 1: it for today. 737 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 2: Back tomorrow.
