Speaker 1: Okay, okay, Bill, Okay, Bill, Fine, I know I'll play
Speaker 1: the one you like. This is the best, right, sure,
Speaker 1: it's very good. Like we were just talking about the
Speaker 1: score Bug that we're watching, because the first four is on.
Speaker 1: Tell me why CBS can't throw it back and put
Speaker 1: up like the late two thousand score Bug with this
Speaker 1: music as their theme. Tell me why that would be
Speaker 1: a bad idea?
Speaker 2: There are no reasons.
Speaker 3: Yeah, fund's not allowed.
Speaker 1: No, at least not in the state of West Virginia
Speaker 1: where they've had a they've had a bad week.
Speaker 3: Yeah, theydon took our took our guns, and took our coach.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let this finish because I'm contractually obligated to
Speaker 1: do so.
Speaker 3: We make no money off of this podcast. He's lying.
Speaker 1: It's the best jingle in sports. It's the best week
Speaker 1: of sports, it's the best time of the year, and
Speaker 1: we're here to tell you all about how Kansas is
Speaker 1: absolutely positively one going to the second weekend of the
Speaker 1: NCAA tournament. No questions asked. This is inside the pain.
Speaker 1: How are you guys?
Speaker 3: I have questions to ask, I don't have any answers
Speaker 3: to provide.
Speaker 1: Oh no, well, no, worries. Guys, no worries, because whenever
Speaker 1: you's has his head of his ask so much is
Speaker 1: your coach. You go to the second weekend of every
Speaker 1: fifth NCAA tournament. Why would this not be the one?
Speaker 2: H gestures back at the last two months of podcasts.
Speaker 3: I can think of reasons.
Speaker 1: Why let's just go ahead and look back at the
Speaker 1: at the last the season and see how it's gone.
Speaker 1: And oh, but hey, it's a new season. Wait no,
Speaker 1: that was the it's a new new season. No, that
Speaker 1: was the Big twelve tournament. Okay, new new new season.
Speaker 1: Oh no, why not? Why not them? Hashtag why not them?
Speaker 1: This is inside the Paint on Rock Chalk Blog tournament show.
Speaker 1: One day later than expected, we were at the I
Speaker 1: spent a lot of the last couple of days at
Speaker 1: the VET. That's why we end up having to push
Speaker 1: it back an extra day. Uh. Pet's doing a lot
Speaker 1: better now. They diagnosed them with a severe case of
Speaker 1: watched the Jayhawks this year, or as Cam said, they
Speaker 1: had been listening to too much Fran for Shilla, so
Speaker 1: we had to we had to get that checked out.
Speaker 1: But one day later, here we are my dedicated and
Speaker 1: confident and confident and dedicated co hosts. They're here anytime
Speaker 1: I need them. This is IP. I'm Ryan Landrath unless
Speaker 1: I have.
Speaker 2: Something more interesting going on, I'm Landing.
Speaker 3: Fields and I'm Seth Davis's Sherpy.
Speaker 1: Oh that's that you rooted Cam. I forgot that's gonna
Speaker 1: be a thing again. Land And you're on the longest
Speaker 1: ITP streak since your first season. How about that you've
Speaker 1: been on fourt You've been on fourteen itps in a row.
Speaker 1: I did not fact check that, but looking at the numbers,
Speaker 1: you haven't been on fourteen itps in at least four years,
Speaker 1: maybe more.
Speaker 2: See with we were talking about Ryan's level of autism
Speaker 2: in the in the chat before the show, So I
Speaker 2: just assumed that you actually did know that or had
Speaker 2: that right somewhere.
Speaker 1: I really, I do know numbers enough to tell you
Speaker 1: this is show four ninety eight of ITP, which means
Speaker 1: what could past five hundred show five hundred. In case
Speaker 1: you're new here, every single milestone number show is an
Speaker 1: apocalyptic loss. Just if you if you go back and
Speaker 1: look at show three one hundred and three fifty four
Speaker 1: hundred four, it's always just happens to work out where
Speaker 1: it's not just a loss, but it's a oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: twenty eight point home loss at Texas sort of loss.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 1: And we'll see what happens because the Round of thirty
Speaker 1: two recap will be show number five hundred, But for
Speaker 1: now we will not be recapping a game or a loss,
Speaker 1: so we're gonna enjoy it. Here's what we're doing today
Speaker 1: on ITP. We're gonna open up with the draw that
Speaker 1: the Jayhawks received, give a couple minutes of analysis on that,
Speaker 1: tell you what we think of how they did on
Speaker 1: selection Sunday. They are the seven seed and a loaded
Speaker 1: West Region lined up in a in a little pod
Speaker 1: that has three Hall of Fame coaches, which is pretty cool,
Speaker 1: and the fourth one the coach of Omaha, Nebraska played
Speaker 1: in the NBA. So these guys know a thing or
Speaker 1: two about basketball. Then we're gonna do ask our CB
Speaker 1: your questions were submitted a couple of days ago. Then
Speaker 1: we're gonna do our full bracket round by round breakdown.
Speaker 1: We're gonna tell you who we picked, final four, pick, sleepers, upsets,
Speaker 1: all that stuff. Then we will end with a Kansas
Speaker 1: v Arkansas preview. That is who the Jayhawk we'll play first,
Speaker 1: and their route to six straight wins and glory is
Speaker 1: John cala Perry's Arkansas Razorbacks, who they opened the season with.
Speaker 1: And it went quite well.
Speaker 3: Right, Uh yeah, I don't. I don't think the game.
Speaker 2: Technically it didn't went one of the two ways that
Speaker 2: it could have gone, and the.
Speaker 1: Other way is good.
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 1: So all right there, that's all those words to say.
Speaker 1: A lot of basketball. Take off your shoes, go ahead
Speaker 1: and get comfortable on the couch. You've had a lot
Speaker 1: of itp this week, and you'll have more of it
Speaker 1: because we'll have a first round recap. But you get
Speaker 1: done listening to the first part where we talked about
Speaker 1: Kansas is a big twelve tournament and how that went
Speaker 1: and all that. Go listen to that. Don't miss that one.
Speaker 1: Don't miss this one. All right, let's push the button.
Speaker 1: Let's get to work. Did we say our names? I am.
Speaker 1: I may be on the spectrum, but I also have
Speaker 1: ADHD and already forgot Did we say our names?
Speaker 2: Yes? We did?
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 1: Okay, anyway over and now so the Jayhawks draw. They're
Speaker 1: the seventh seed in the West, one of the last
Speaker 1: teams to hear their names called on Selection Sunday. They
Speaker 1: opened with ten seed Arkansas and one of the I
Speaker 1: can't remember the last time they opened up with a
Speaker 1: Power five opponent, because they're usually too high of a
Speaker 1: seed to do that. They're the lowest seed they've been
Speaker 1: in a quarter century, but still are wearing the whites
Speaker 1: in game number one. The two seed who they would
Speaker 1: presumably play next is Saint John's Rick Patino Zubi edge
Speaker 1: four looming in a potential Saturday matchup. The one is Florida,
Speaker 1: the two Saint John's to three Texas Tech, and then
Speaker 1: really none of the rest of it matters because Kansas
Speaker 1: probably is gonna play those teams. What was you guys's
Speaker 1: assessment of how this team did. Everybody always likes to
Speaker 1: say they got put in the region of death. Did
Speaker 1: they this time?
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think the draw is as
Speaker 2: good as you could hope, to be honest. I also
Speaker 2: that was not my takeaway watching this, because it doesn't
Speaker 2: like that. That's not what is going to affect Kansas
Speaker 2: this year. They got a solid draw. If you're looking
Speaker 2: for positives, like Arkansas is not a world beater by
Speaker 2: any stretch. They are very talented, but they cannot close
Speaker 2: games they have.
Speaker 3: I wish I knew that.
Speaker 1: You could also say that about I wish I knew
Speaker 1: another one.
Speaker 2: No kidding, Saint John's is very very good and has
Speaker 2: some elite players, doesn't score the ball at a crazy
Speaker 2: high rate, things like that. I don't think Saint John's
Speaker 2: is quite in the elite elite tier of the top
Speaker 2: four or five, as evidenced by them being a two seed.
Speaker 2: But again, Kansas is not inherently better than Arkansas, and
Speaker 2: they're definitely definitely not better than Saint John's. So yeah,
Speaker 2: I think the draw is good considering what it could
Speaker 2: have been. I also, as we will get into, I'm
Speaker 2: not sure how much that is going to matter.
Speaker 1: So Cam, if I look at this bracket, and if
Speaker 1: you knew Kansas was gonna be a seven seed, then
Speaker 1: there's four ten seeds. There is a New Mexico, there
Speaker 1: is Vanderbilt, there is Utah State, and there's Arca. I
Speaker 1: think you could make the argument that Arkansas would be
Speaker 1: one of the one or two games you'd prefer. Similarly,
Speaker 1: the two seeds. We knew that we didn't want them
Speaker 1: to play Alabama. We knew we didn't want to see
Speaker 1: them get paired with Tennessee, Michigan State and Saint John's
Speaker 1: were the two that would be on the more preferable side.
Speaker 1: Not saying they're gonna win those games, certainly not even
Speaker 1: gonna say they're gonna win one. But from a draw perspective,
Speaker 1: I think you have to feel like they did okay
Speaker 1: all things considered.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not bad. I mean the knee jerk reaction
Speaker 3: when you see a draw come out and it's John
Speaker 3: cal Perry in the first round, you're like, that's not ideal.
Speaker 3: But in reality, they're similar to Kansas, like Landon said,
Speaker 3: they can't close, close games or talented but haven't really
Speaker 3: put it together. And then Saint John's, on the other hand,
Speaker 3: they can't really score. So for Kansas to get see
Speaker 3: the Sweet sixteen, it's probably as good as they could
Speaker 3: ask for. That being said, we'll talk about it later.
Speaker 3: I would not be buying Sweet sixteen tickets.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're gonna talk all about it. And just kind
Speaker 1: of looking at their draw, my initial thoughts were we
Speaker 1: were obviously very unhappy with their draw two years ago
Speaker 1: when we thought they did enough to be the one
Speaker 1: seed in Kansas City and they got screwed over by
Speaker 1: Chris Reynolds. He put Houston there, and ironically it was
Speaker 1: Arkansas that was drawn as KU's eight. There. Kansas was
Speaker 1: a four point favorite in the one v. Eight game.
Speaker 1: Arkansas was far and away the eight seed we wanted
Speaker 1: to see them avoid, and the game wound up being
Speaker 1: a coin flip that they lost. Last year they were
Speaker 1: a four seed, so it wasn't really a huge talking
Speaker 1: point because no one was really anticipating a deep, deep run.
Speaker 1: But we knew that they got paired with Purdue, a
Speaker 1: team with the best player in college basketball last year,
Speaker 1: as their one in a potential Sweet sixteen game that
Speaker 1: didn't wind up happening because they got paired with Gonzaga
Speaker 1: top ten Ken Pom team as a five seed. That
Speaker 1: wasn't an optimal draw either. Overall, it's kind of sucks
Speaker 1: that the weakest Kansas team in recent memory got what
Speaker 1: I believe is the best draw I've seen them get
Speaker 1: in several years. I think this is the best draw,
Speaker 1: at least the way I felt on paper for Kansas
Speaker 1: since twenty seventeen. Whenever they got paired with the Oregon
Speaker 1: as their eventual three seed. That didn't go great. Louisville
Speaker 1: was their two that year, and I think we thought
Speaker 1: that's a good draw. Haven't felt as confident twenty eighteen.
Speaker 1: You may remember Landon buried his face in his hands
Speaker 1: on the live stream because they got Duke in Michigan
Speaker 1: State as the two in the three. Nineteen Auburn loomed
Speaker 1: in the round of thirty two. No one liked that
Speaker 1: twenty one USC A team that was favored over Kansas
Speaker 1: despite being the six in the six P three game
Speaker 1: twenty two. Things broke their way, but we thought that
Speaker 1: was a pretty tough draw, and then we talked about
Speaker 1: the last two years. I think they did okay. I'm
Speaker 1: not saying they're going to go to the Final four
Speaker 1: by any stretch. But if you look at the teams
Speaker 1: that are most poised with their draw, the six, the sevens,
Speaker 1: the eights, who could most likely make a deep run,
Speaker 1: I think you have to put Ku pretty high on
Speaker 1: that list of teams. We knew whenever we were getting
Speaker 1: through those teams, we knew we only had a few
Speaker 1: teams left to be called. Drake was sitting out there.
Speaker 1: Oh no, Drake's either getting Kansas or Missouri. We all
Speaker 1: knew it. They didn't get Kansas, they got Arkansas, and
Speaker 1: or Kansas through Arkansas instead. What do you guys think
Speaker 1: of the Arkansas matchup? I know we're gonna break that
Speaker 1: down here in a little bit, but overall, Kansas is
Speaker 1: a five point favorite in a seven v ten game.
Speaker 1: That's the highest spread of any of the seven v
Speaker 1: ten games. Analytically and metrically, that's a good draw for them.
Speaker 2: I think it is solid. Arkansas is really talented. Obviously,
Speaker 2: Kansas did lose, as we were joking about, to Arkansas
Speaker 2: like many months ago. That was a long time ago,
Speaker 2: in a preseason game, so I don't know how much
Speaker 2: bearing that really has. I do think Kansas should match
Speaker 2: up like they don't match up poorly, And again I
Speaker 2: don't trust Arkansas at all. I still am on the
Speaker 2: John cal Perry's kind of washed train, don't. I don't
Speaker 2: really think he's got it anymore, at least not like
Speaker 2: he used to. But maybe Bill self doesn't either, so
Speaker 2: we'll see. I think, weirdly, these are two pretty evenly
Speaker 2: matched teams. I would also favor Kansas, but I don't
Speaker 2: love it like I should. For Kansas playing a ten seed, I'm.
Speaker 1: Running back around the desk. Here I go. I was
Speaker 1: opening the window because that's really nice outside. One day
Speaker 1: before it's supposed to dump a couple inches of snow
Speaker 1: here tomorrow. It was eighty one grees in Kansas City
Speaker 1: today and tomorrow's low is in the mid twenties. Cam
Speaker 1: House Mission love this time of year.
Speaker 3: Man Mission was sixty five and sunny today.
Speaker 1: What's tomorrow? Because here comes the white snowstorm.
Speaker 3: Tomorrow's seventy and sunny.
Speaker 1: Unbelievable. It's a really nicer and freaking Detroit than it
Speaker 1: is here landing. You might have to drive through a
Speaker 1: snowstorm to come over and watch John Calipari Vvville self.
Speaker 1: Somebody posted a picture of Shaq and Kobe in their
Speaker 1: like late thirties and said, oh look it's Bill Self
Speaker 1: and John Caliperi in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3: That's true, Yeah, it was kind of true.
Speaker 1: Would have been a great matchup just a few years ago.
Speaker 1: Imagine being told like six years ago that Rick Patino
Speaker 1: would be far and away the least washed of those
Speaker 1: three coaches. In just a few years.
Speaker 2: I would have been like, man Elon is the new Gonzaga?
Speaker 2: Where was it was Elon.
Speaker 3: He was at Iona.
Speaker 1: I oh, I thought it was an Elon Musk joke,
Speaker 1: and I was getting ready to say, did you know
Speaker 1: that Elon Musk? If you fill out I don't know
Speaker 1: if you have to have it perfect or not you
Speaker 1: have to win some sort of contest, but if so,
Speaker 1: you may very well win a trip to Mars. I
Speaker 1: think was the deal. If you had like a perfect
Speaker 1: bracket or a certain percentile bracket, you win a SpaceX
Speaker 1: trip to Mars, which means you would have one trip tickets.
Speaker 2: Does that budget come out of the Department of Education's
Speaker 2: budget or like where's that?
Speaker 3: Yeah? Why would you want to go to Mars of
Speaker 3: all places? Like? What what are we going?
Speaker 1: I on that one. I'm struggling to come up with it.
Speaker 2: Have you ever watched Martian Cam It looks sick.
Speaker 3: I just think if Kansas gets obliterated in the tournament
Speaker 3: this year, I might go to Mars.
Speaker 1: Anyway, it's gonna take you a while to get there.
Speaker 1: I think they said it's going to take like three
Speaker 1: months and on rocket speed. So you have to be
Speaker 1: able to put yourself to sleep, Like, just.
Speaker 3: Give me some low grade horse tranquilizer.
Speaker 1: I'll be fine, all right, let's tell on that. Okay,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do something a little different. We're gonna do
Speaker 1: ASCARCB right off the bat here. So we're all very
Speaker 1: optimistic on how the j birds did in their draw,
Speaker 1: which means we all have them going very deep in
Speaker 1: the tournament, which we will tell you about here. Whenever
Speaker 1: we make our answer, I have to scroll and find
Speaker 1: the ASSCARCB. So you two entertain the audience for a
Speaker 1: few minutes.
Speaker 2: That's Cam's job.
Speaker 3: I feel like a medieval court gesture that just like
Speaker 3: shows up with a trumpet and a hat and like
Speaker 3: everyone just looks at me for entertainment. Then I get
Speaker 3: beheaded for making a joke about the king's wife.
Speaker 2: But at least you got to read your bet slip
Speaker 2: before that, you know, if you know?
Speaker 3: Do you think so? I think Ryan was meant to
Speaker 3: live in medieval times because you know that all the
Speaker 3: queen's and medieval times were really big, because they.
Speaker 1: I was, I was wondering what it was. It was
Speaker 1: either gonna because lots of people had autism or lots
Speaker 1: of people.
Speaker 3: He was on that.
Speaker 1: I was wondering, which I think.
Speaker 3: I think what happened in medieval times is if you
Speaker 3: were on the Charter Spectrum. They just burned you at
Speaker 3: the State because I thought you were a witch.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, straight to the guillotine is what happened. Yeah yeah, Hey,
Speaker 1: r J. Davis made a three. Speaking of Cam's best flip,
Speaker 1: Cam give us an update on how we're watching North
Speaker 1: Carolina beat the Brakes off of San Diego State, and
Speaker 1: allegedly CAM might have a little bit of interest in
Speaker 1: this matchup.
Speaker 3: It's not alleged, it's confirmed. It is. Uh, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: need r. J. Davis to score a lot in the
Speaker 3: second half, but uh yeah, you know it might.
Speaker 2: Be alright here, the just known as Sam has taken A. J.
Speaker 2: Davis to score over sixteen and a half points or whatever.
Speaker 3: Actually it was it was it was twenty. So that's how.
Speaker 1: Many does he have? He's got at least eight?
Speaker 3: Is he? Is he eight?
Speaker 1: Okay, well it's still the first half.
Speaker 2: Well you better hope for San Diego State comeback.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, he's getting he's getting his knee taped up
Speaker 1: right now. They're showing so that's not great.
Speaker 3: Oh wonderful.
Speaker 1: All right, let's do ask rock chalk blug and then
Speaker 1: we'll get into the brackets. So the results from our
Speaker 1: ITP draft, did either of you see the final results?
Speaker 2: I lost.
Speaker 3: I know that you did lose winning.
Speaker 1: They got closer. CAM wound up winning. That CAM was
Speaker 1: way ahead early and then I made a very very
Speaker 1: frightful ballots get Cam finished with forty four percent of
Speaker 1: the four hundred and thirteen votes. I was right behind
Speaker 1: at forty and Landon was at sixteen. So we did
Speaker 1: all get votes, uh and all of the people. But
Speaker 1: I do see several people in the comments that say that,
Speaker 1: including at Dick Underscore or butt Kissy says Landon won
Speaker 1: by a mile.
Speaker 3: Ryan called the called Elon mussine. He needed to find
Speaker 3: exactly thirteen votes.
Speaker 1: And it didn't happen because.
Speaker 3: They open FEC complaint for that one.
Speaker 1: Here's a few complaints are complaints. Here's a few comments
Speaker 1: in response to that tweet that I will answer rapid
Speaker 1: fire at Forever Young twelve Underscore thirty four. How do
Speaker 1: you have Embid coming off the bench because it's Bill
Speaker 1: self who would start Jamari trailer over Joel embiid. Let's
Speaker 1: see here at race thirty one, x Cam's team would
Speaker 1: be a ten point favorite against the two other teams
Speaker 1: know they would not, and Cam was bet on that
Speaker 1: and lose. Hey do you see they just showed on TV?
Speaker 1: Do you see they just showed on TV sitting courtside
Speaker 1: of this game.
Speaker 3: Joseph Stalin himself.
Speaker 1: Without the mustache though, and probably a bigger bank account.
Speaker 1: North Carolina's athletic director and his blue tie is sitting
Speaker 1: courtside after putting North Carolina to do that.
Speaker 3: Man, you just can't go to this game. If you
Speaker 3: do that, you can't go to the game. Dude, what
Speaker 3: are you doing?
Speaker 1: I agree at Jacat says what says? No Christian Brown
Speaker 1: question mark? No Christian Brown is definitely there. And that's
Speaker 1: that's I didn't write anything that crazy.
Speaker 3: Oh r J.
Speaker 1: Davis makes a buzzer beater, Cam, You're more than halfway.
Speaker 3: There, babe, Come on, that wasn't Davis?
Speaker 1: It was it? Yeah, I was gonna say it definitely was.
Speaker 1: All right, degenerates, Wow, North Carolina is just boat racing
Speaker 1: San Diego State here, all right, here are the ascarcbs
Speaker 1: at show me Hawk, how would the three teams you
Speaker 1: drafted do in this year's sixteen team Big twelve with.
Speaker 3: A twenty game schedule better than this one.
Speaker 1: I mean I want to I want to, Yes, I
Speaker 1: want to say they go like nineteen and one, But
Speaker 1: that wouldn't even be enough to win it outright.
Speaker 3: For real? That is wild the thing, Oh no.
Speaker 1: Because they would have beat Houston at home likely and
Speaker 1: then therefore they would have right.
Speaker 2: Well, that would have made both well maybe, I mean
Speaker 2: that still makes Houston. Eighteen and two.
Speaker 1: I think eighteen and two is the record that I
Speaker 1: would bet if you gave me any of those teams.
Speaker 1: They're still probably getting tripped up a couple of times.
Speaker 1: And I'm not necessarily saying that they're going to lose
Speaker 1: the league title to Houston because they would have had
Speaker 1: two matchups with Houston in this scenario to maybe change
Speaker 1: one of them. But I think they win eighteen and
Speaker 1: lose two. I think that's the most likely outcome. If
Speaker 1: you put one of these teams in the Big twelve
Speaker 1: and play the season one thousand times, I think the
Speaker 1: most common record is eighteen and two.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: Maybe I would probably go seventeen and three, just because
Speaker 2: eighteen and two is so so hard to do. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but they would be very very good.
Speaker 3: I think eighteen and two is probably sweet spot at show.
Speaker 1: Me Hawk has the next handful of questions here says
Speaker 1: I thought Kansas has had a better lead up to
Speaker 1: the tournament than last year's team, which felt like a
Speaker 1: dead man walking without Kevin mccullor. It hasn't necessarily translated
Speaker 1: to all wins because they're not elite, but it's hard
Speaker 1: to argue that they're not playing better than they did
Speaker 1: earlier in the year. I agree with that. You look
Speaker 1: back at since they started the new season. You slammed
Speaker 1: Oklahoma State, you beat Colorado, You had the narrow home
Speaker 1: loss the Tech, who we recognized as a top ten team.
Speaker 1: You lost narrowly at Houston, who he recognized as a
Speaker 1: top five team. You beat Arizona, you beat UCF in
Speaker 1: a game where you showed you can shoot the ball,
Speaker 1: and then you lost the Arizona who's also a four seed.
Speaker 1: You got three losses all the top four seeds. They
Speaker 1: are playing better, but Landon is what you said. They're
Speaker 1: playing better basketball and still losing to teams that are
Speaker 1: better than them, which were not used to seeing.
Speaker 2: Yes, I do agree with the premise that they are
Speaker 2: playing better, certainly better than the last years team was.
Speaker 2: But yeah, maybe that bodes well for Arkansas, and I mean, hey,
Speaker 2: Kansas still is a team. If they get hot and
Speaker 2: have a great night, they can be in any game
Speaker 2: with these teams.
Speaker 1: Cam, do you think it's fair to say that if
Speaker 1: Kansas plays as well as they've played the last handful
Speaker 1: of weeks, they should beat Arkansas and they should be
Speaker 1: right in a rock fight with Saint John's down to
Speaker 1: the last couple minutes.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean if they do that, they're going to
Speaker 3: beat Arkansas and then they'll be tied with about four
Speaker 3: minutes left with Saint John's and then they'll lose by twelve.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's exactly how yep? Yeah, can we get
Speaker 1: Travis Goff as the committee chair next year and have
Speaker 1: him polar reverse twenty twenty three to give Kansas a
Speaker 1: favorable reason and send to Houston out west with five
Speaker 1: top fifteen Ken Pomb teams. I don't get the Houston venom.
Speaker 1: I know that in this scenario, you're getting revenge on Houston.
Speaker 1: I sent out a tweet after Houston won the Big twelve,
Speaker 1: and I wasn't trying to be a total kiss ass,
Speaker 1: but I just said, like, they are undisputedly the king
Speaker 1: of the Big twelve, and they're a very likable team.
Speaker 1: It's not easy that you find a team that wins
Speaker 1: that much. It's that easy to root for. I like
Speaker 1: Calvin Samson. I like the way that they've built their team.
Speaker 1: None of those guys have done anything that would make
Speaker 1: fans say, you know what, I don't like those guys.
Speaker 1: I think the only reason that you're a Kansas fan
Speaker 1: that you don't like Houston. I think the only possible
Speaker 1: way for that is you're jealous. They they showed up
Speaker 1: and stole your girl. They are who you used to be,
Speaker 1: and now it's on you to get back to that level. Like,
Speaker 1: I think jealousy is the only way that Kansas fans
Speaker 1: can dislike what what Houston has built. Yeah, I agree
Speaker 1: with that, and then show me hawk, says Bill A
Speaker 1: Kansas basketball starting five with current Chiefs defensive players, Cam,
Speaker 1: can you name five Chiefs defensive players?
Speaker 3: Uh? Does Lizzo count? I have nothing? Literally?
Speaker 1: All right, So Landon, this is this is a you
Speaker 1: and I question. Then Chris Jones is your center?
Speaker 3: Right? That's easy?
Speaker 2: Yeah for sure? Yep.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: Maybe got Trent McDuffie playing one of the wings.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, athletic and and and kind of a hybrid there.
Speaker 1: I kind of want Nick Bolton on the low block
Speaker 1: like he can he can bang around a little bit
Speaker 1: will Yes, Yes, I I think that's a good fit. Uh,
Speaker 1: you need who's your who's your? I would love to
Speaker 1: have Justin Reid as my point guard because he's he
Speaker 1: seems like a real smart dude. Uh, that athlete. But
Speaker 1: he's not here as all chief safeties go, So so
Speaker 1: who else is? Who else do we got out there?
Speaker 1: We can put Charles A. Minihu out on the wing.
Speaker 1: He's a big body, he can knock down some shots.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty athletic.
Speaker 1: I guess he's not here either. He's a free agent,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna roll with it because he hasn't left yet.
Speaker 2: Uh, maybe maybe Brian Cooks your point guard.
Speaker 1: That's gotta be the answer. Yeah, the guy who's gonna
Speaker 1: who's gonna wear the the dot and the secondary and
Speaker 1: is gonna and then uh.
Speaker 2: Leo Chanel and Drew tranquill are are your your Tolkien
Speaker 2: white guys?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I was just say Leo Chanel's gotta be our our
Speaker 1: token white guy of the game. That has to happen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: block The Broncos hopes and dreams. I will give show
Speaker 1: me Hawk kudos because he has been banging the Kansas
Speaker 1: needs to get Villanova scheduled as a regular non conference
Speaker 1: opponent drum for a while, and so he's very happy
Speaker 1: that now Kyle Neptune is gone, so it's time to
Speaker 1: lift the embargo and schedule Villanova rotate between Allen field House,
Speaker 1: T Mobile Center and then the two Philadelphia pavilions. I
Speaker 1: agree that should be in their rotation. We saw it
Speaker 1: nineteen and twenty. Cam was at that game. Cam, so
Speaker 1: was I. We were so close. I don't know how
Speaker 1: you didn't come up and say hi at some point.
Speaker 3: I'm like ninety nine percent sure that I mentioned something
Speaker 3: about running into you and then you didn't respond.
Speaker 1: So that doesn't sound like me. I would I was
Speaker 1: Cam's biggest fan. Cam is always asked good questions.
Speaker 3: I I just assumed, and rightfully so, that I am
Speaker 3: psychotic and didn't want to meet me, which is probably fair.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, I assure you. If I had known
Speaker 1: the opportunity to meet you was there, I would have.
Speaker 1: Cam has been asking, as asked ARCB since like the
Speaker 1: second season of the show, So I would have loved that.
Speaker 1: Do you remember, Uh, do you remember some of your
Speaker 1: first askarcbs?
Speaker 3: I don't, but I think if I remember correctly, a
Speaker 3: lot of them were actual basketball questions, and I thought
Speaker 3: you guys had genuine, like insider knowledge. And then I
Speaker 3: could listen to the show and I'd be like, this
Speaker 3: is my hope to get inside info. And then now
Speaker 3: I'm on the show, I realized we're all just idiots
Speaker 3: with headphone.
Speaker 1: Cam absolutely believed that Daniel was like this internal recruiting
Speaker 1: acts I did, and he was like, who are we
Speaker 1: getting in this recruit And Daniel would make Daniel would
Speaker 1: go all a politician and act like he knew what
Speaker 1: he was talking about. Well, I've heard from a couple
Speaker 1: sources that I like how they're doing with I don't know,
Speaker 1: Julius Randall, and Cam was like, who all right, we're gonna.
Speaker 3: Get him, yeah, just like RJ. Hampton, like all the
Speaker 3: anther Ones.
Speaker 1: Oh my good, do you guys remember the art? I
Speaker 1: got up at like seven in the morning to watch
Speaker 1: Jetson put on a New Zealand breaker's hat.
Speaker 3: I was at the.
Speaker 2: I was in Michigan, I was in the Upper Peninsula.
Speaker 2: I watched it on my aunt's television. Well that was
Speaker 2: deeply disappointing, very much so.
Speaker 1: And then that was the only reason they got Jalen Wilson,
Speaker 1: wasn't it. Those two were friends.
Speaker 3: Oh, I think you're right. Yeah, I actually worked out
Speaker 3: pretty well.
Speaker 1: That's why Jalen Wilson pulled his letter of intent back
Speaker 1: from Michigan. I remember DeAndre Ayton was thought to be
Speaker 1: just a Kansas dunk and then suddenly he wasn't. And
Speaker 1: then Sean got popped. Yeah, exactly. TJ gas Noola didn't
Speaker 1: do enough heavy lifting in those days, and like Ayden
Speaker 1: was thought to be like the like like. It was
Speaker 1: like Shaq was coming in to play college basketball and
Speaker 1: he was very underwhelming. Uh, and then they lost to Buffalo.
Speaker 1: Do you guys know who Buffalo's coach was that day?
Speaker 3: Mmm? I should know the answer to this one. I
Speaker 3: think you guys.
Speaker 1: Remember that game? You guys remember Buffalo? Just all right? Yeah,
Speaker 1: what kind of if I had to ask you whose
Speaker 1: style did that resemble what Buffalo did to Arizona that day? Oh,
Speaker 1: it's Nat so much credit here, man, It's correct. It
Speaker 1: is NATO's Yeah, Nato, It's is Buffalo Bison And he
Speaker 1: got the Alaba, Amazon yep. Put it on Sweaty Sean
Speaker 1: Miller that day at Chris Sirgo too. It seems like
Speaker 1: the committee makes obviously terrible calls on seating year in
Speaker 1: year out. Teams like Michigan and louis got a really
Speaker 1: tough drap. Okay, here's a good good spot to bring
Speaker 1: in that point. What did you guys think of the bracket?
Speaker 1: How did the committee do?
Speaker 2: Inconsistent mostly well with some with some head scratchers like Louisville.
Speaker 1: Oh see, I think it's like one of the worst
Speaker 1: brackets I've ever seen. I think it's terrible. I think
Speaker 1: Kansas did well, but I think everything about it makes
Speaker 1: no sense.
Speaker 3: A lot of it doesn't mean I'm so not picky
Speaker 3: with a bracket.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't, I don't care about any of
Speaker 2: this because, like everyone complains, but there's only five teams
Speaker 2: that are ever gonna win the Natty anyway ninety percent
Speaker 2: of the time, So it doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: Here's what that screwed up. Go ahead, Cam, go ahead.
Speaker 3: And I was just gonna say, no, you're fine. I
Speaker 3: was just gonna say that the Louisville one didn't make
Speaker 3: any sense because they're what ranked thirteenth or something like that.
Speaker 1: A couple things with Louisville that don't make any sense.
Speaker 1: First of all, Auburn, the number one overall seed, draws Louisville,
Speaker 1: an eight seed, and Lexington, Kentucky. It's a road game
Speaker 1: for the number one overall seed right out of the chuet,
Speaker 1: assuming they get past Creighton. You have another number one
Speaker 1: seed in Houston who draws Gonzaga as an eight seed,
Speaker 1: who is a top fifteen Ken Palm opponent, as a
Speaker 1: round of thirty two team. That doesn't make any sense. Obviously,
Speaker 1: the Louisville eight seed is preposterous. Memphis is the five.
Speaker 1: There is a legitimate conspiracy going around on Twitter that
Speaker 1: the committee just messed up and accidentally switched their seeds.
Speaker 1: Like whenever you look at the analytics and the metrics,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of data that suggests that Memphis should
Speaker 1: have been the eight place exactly where Louisville was, and
Speaker 1: the committee just fed it up. Wait, I don't know
Speaker 1: if that's what happened.
Speaker 3: Yes, it doesn't just make sense, doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 1: And obviously the West Virginia call North Carolina gets in
Speaker 1: West Virginia's had an awful week. I've said this many times.
Speaker 1: I don't need to watch West Virginia as a ten
Speaker 1: seed losing the first round of the NCAA Tournament. I
Speaker 1: don't need that. But yeah, don't act like there is
Speaker 1: don't act like there is any data or analytics or
Speaker 1: metrics or anything that makes sense to put North Carolina
Speaker 1: over West Virginia. You wanted eyeballs in this first four,
Speaker 1: that's the answer.
Speaker 3: They won one to swap the seeds by x. There's
Speaker 3: no like, in no universe does it make sense to
Speaker 3: have emphasis a five seed. There's just no that's yeah, Resime,
Speaker 3: that makes no sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought it was. I thought they really did
Speaker 1: a pretty poor job all things considered that, especially for
Speaker 1: the two one seeds. Auburn gets to go on the
Speaker 1: road and play Louisville in the round of thirty two,
Speaker 1: and they should be a five seed. And then Houston
Speaker 1: gets Gonzaga as an eight seed. Saint Mary's is a
Speaker 1: seven howl on Earth? Is Gonzaga and Gonzaga favored over
Speaker 1: Saint Mary's Like, I'm so over Saint Mary's racking up
Speaker 1: wins and getting rewarded with a seed way higher than
Speaker 1: they should like Gonzaga is better than Saint Mary's, Gonzaga
Speaker 1: should be a higher seed.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't even know. Yeah, I agree ratings.
Speaker 1: So that's that's my two cents. There's always a couple
Speaker 1: of things to complain about. But I thought two of
Speaker 1: the one seeds got done especially dirty. And the Louisville
Speaker 1: thing is preposterous. And I think West Virginia is the
Speaker 1: biggest snub in the history of the modern day NCAA
Speaker 1: tournament format.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all of that may well be true. Uh, the
Speaker 2: Levil Mephis thing is is pretty interesting also though, if
Speaker 2: you're West Virginia, just don't be a little team, man,
Speaker 2: be a better basketball team.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we were all on that. We told you
Speaker 1: in the show landon and I did the UCF free
Speaker 1: cap when West Virginia lost that game to Colorado. That
Speaker 1: there is always a team projected as a nine or
Speaker 1: ten seed going in the champ Week that loses in
Speaker 1: their first conference tournament game to a horrible team, and
Speaker 1: that team always winds up just missing the tournament. It
Speaker 1: happens to one team every single year because look at
Speaker 1: the teams that narrowly beat them out. Xavier Texas, Oklahoma.
Speaker 1: I know that that was by more than a little bit,
Speaker 1: but still North Carolina, all those teams won at least one,
Speaker 1: if not two games in their conference tournament. West Virginia
Speaker 1: did not. They beat Color out of their end. It's
Speaker 1: as simple as that.
Speaker 3: It's true. You're right.
Speaker 1: At rock Chock. AJ wants to know if this can
Speaker 1: be discussed more because it's blatant cheating and it's stuff
Speaker 1: about Indiana and West Virginia not being put in the
Speaker 1: tournament whenever you have North Carolina. We kind of just
Speaker 1: answered that India Indiana was.
Speaker 3: Another Pence has the courage.
Speaker 1: What do you want me to go play the Star
Speaker 1: Spangled banner video you sent me a couple of minutes ago.
Speaker 3: Can that's for a different time, Okay.
Speaker 1: I'll come back to that. Yes, I agree, Aj, it was.
Speaker 3: It was.
Speaker 1: It's pretty wild and at at us in h one,
Speaker 1: Oh boy. If Ryan was stuck on an island, survivor. Okay,
Speaker 1: So we got a final four and survivor, which I
Speaker 1: believe begins with a I'm I'm competing against these individuals
Speaker 1: and challenges with fran Friscilla, Doug Sermons, and Brian Haney
Speaker 1: who comes out on top. Okay, first of all, I
Speaker 1: am beating those three and a Survivor final four. There
Speaker 1: is no way that an here goes fifty something that
Speaker 1: there is no way they're beating me at a physical
Speaker 1: endurance challenge dripping wet.
Speaker 3: But it's not You're gonna have to fistfight a gorilla
Speaker 3: on like the first day and you'll be dead.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I think this is like a legitimate
Speaker 1: Survivor setting, it says Survivor style, unless we're just legitimately
Speaker 1: stuck on an island, in which case I'm dying and
Speaker 1: not a reality Okay, then yes, it's me who comes
Speaker 1: out on top. I would probably bet on Doug's sermons
Speaker 1: because he is in the best shape. He's a ref
Speaker 1: he clearly has to be in pretty good shape. Fran
Speaker 1: sucks balls, and Brian Haney is uh, I there's been
Speaker 1: there's been a little great guy who love right. Yes,
Speaker 1: and I'm I'm I'm a fan of Brian Haney. Cam
Speaker 1: don't say anything, and uh, but he's also he's also
Speaker 1: in his like fifties, like he's probably not doing too
Speaker 1: well in as.
Speaker 3: There is a life raft at this point, Ryan would
Speaker 3: give the wife raft of Brian.
Speaker 1: Haney over Fran and Dougie as I would.
Speaker 3: I'm just saying you'd give it to him and you'd
Speaker 3: stay on the island. That's the trajectory we're on.
Speaker 1: Yep, that's what an arci is, folks. Elliott also asks, no,
Speaker 1: that will not happen at Elliott says Elliott Veruson says,
Speaker 1: actual basketball question, who is your favorite team seeded at
Speaker 1: least an eleven or worse to make a run in
Speaker 1: the dance this year? It doesn't have to be someone
Speaker 1: you picked. Just give me a seat eleven or worse
Speaker 1: that you like to make a run the act. The
Speaker 1: answer here is either High Point or you see San Diego.
Speaker 1: Those are the two that are like right there. Drake
Speaker 1: isn't eleven, But They're not my favorite to make a
Speaker 1: run because I think their path is tougher. I think
Speaker 1: it opened up. You see San Diego has Michigan and
Speaker 1: an A and m and their path that they want
Speaker 1: to do it, and I think that's a good path
Speaker 1: for them.
Speaker 2: I agree with that. I think Liberty. Maybe I haven't
Speaker 2: watched a lot of Liberty this season, but I think
Speaker 2: Liberty grades out as a team that could pull an
Speaker 2: upset or so. I think they'd be one to watch.
Speaker 2: Of course, they have Duke theoretically not far down the line.
Speaker 2: Don't love that if that's what it comes to, but
Speaker 2: I think they could be interesting. Akron likes to fill
Speaker 2: it up. Akron, I think kind of sucks. But they
Speaker 2: score a lot of points, and that's you know, done
Speaker 2: teams a lot worse in the past.
Speaker 3: Don't really huge underdog.
Speaker 1: Akron's like a seventeen point underdog. I guess it's they're bad.
Speaker 2: They're bad. I'm just saying they a lot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Arizona's minus sixteen right.
Speaker 3: Now, So you're telling me Akron money line is what
Speaker 3: I'm hearing.
Speaker 1: And then here is the last question before we get
Speaker 1: into brackets. Here at Dick Underscore Taser the Almighty Boot,
Speaker 1: his staffa appears and offers you one one hundred thousand
Speaker 1: dollars to bet on a tournament champion. You get two
Speaker 1: options option one Duke Auburn, Houston and Michigan. State to
Speaker 1: the rest of the field, what's your pick, and he
Speaker 1: adds your significant other has to chop off a finger
Speaker 1: and a toe if you lose, so no pressure ha
Speaker 1: ha loophole bay.
Speaker 3: I win.
Speaker 1: I would take those four teams.
Speaker 3: Is Florida? Did you say Florida was in it?
Speaker 1: Nope, Michigan State instead of Florida. I think that. I
Speaker 1: think there's logic here. I think Florida instead of Michigan's.
Speaker 1: I think that's why you put them in there. I
Speaker 1: think that the four to one seeds is an easy
Speaker 1: slant towards those fours. I think taking out Florida for
Speaker 1: Michigan State makes this tougher. I would take those four teams.
Speaker 1: Duke's the best team of flags healthy. Auburn had the
Speaker 1: best resume, and he is the best team at flag
Speaker 1: is not healthy.
Speaker 2: I would also take the four teams.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you have to.
Speaker 1: But yeah, most years that's not the case. Most years
Speaker 1: I'm not picking four teams over the field. I think
Speaker 1: this year it's a little bit more clear cut. And
Speaker 1: we are now going to blow the airhorn and what
Speaker 1: we feel unlucky we do in a one take show.
Speaker 1: Let's just do a one take show, all right, let's
Speaker 1: give it a go. Okay, so let's talk brackets. If
Speaker 1: you have not already, you go to the Rock Chalk
Speaker 1: Blog Twitter or just type in rock Chalk Blog Pool
Speaker 1: to Google. I would think that would work. It's on ESPN.
Speaker 1: The link is at the top of Rock Chalk Blog.
Speaker 1: Twitter Join the bracket Challenge. We're all in it. All
Speaker 1: the ITP regulars are in it. You may see some
Speaker 1: names that you recognize as podcast references bonus points. If
Speaker 1: you name your entry after your favorite ITP thing that's
Speaker 1: been said this year or NIGHTSP reference. You could name
Speaker 1: your entry this right here, your.
Speaker 3: Gas suck ass.
Speaker 1: And you could yeah what Cam just said. You could
Speaker 1: name it that. You could name something about Cam allegedly
Speaker 1: losing United States currency on a regular basis, whatever you like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you could name it five candle dump.
Speaker 1: You could name it Ryan's Brian Haney arc.
Speaker 3: Uh. Yeah. A lot of things I want to say
Speaker 3: that I can't say right now.
Speaker 2: They're already one that was a deranged Robert Frost or whatever.
Speaker 3: Which was that's not you?
Speaker 1: I thought that was Cam.
Speaker 3: No, it's not. That's my minus Charles E. Cheese Animatronic, Okay,
Speaker 3: that's that's yeah.
Speaker 1: I also checks out and considering who they play in
Speaker 1: the first round, guys, I'm gonna be real disappointed if
Speaker 1: no one's name in this isn't.
Speaker 3: Penis what's wrong with that?
Speaker 1: Like, come on, that's a layout right in front of you.
Speaker 1: All right, let's pick the bracket. So everybody's got their
Speaker 1: bracket in front of you. These are your final picks.
Speaker 1: You cannot change them. You can get bragging points, Shriver,
Speaker 1: but for your rock chock blog pool, we are locking
Speaker 1: in our picks right now. Landon, why don't you start
Speaker 1: in the South region you can drive for a little bit.
Speaker 1: Or do we want to go do we want to
Speaker 1: do the entire first round and then after we do
Speaker 1: the first round region by region we'll just go all
Speaker 1: the way? Or how what's the best way to do.
Speaker 2: This first round region by region and then mo through it?
Speaker 1: All right, let's go, you lead the charge, Okay?
Speaker 2: Up top. As of tonight's recording, Alabama State will be
Speaker 2: number one overall. Auburn's matchup, we're all taking the Tigers, right, No,
Speaker 2: third sixty ten seed getting the win.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not this time. Not the purduees. Not on the
Speaker 1: other side there.
Speaker 2: And then in that eight nine, as we've already discussed
Speaker 2: kind of at length here, we got eight Louisville versus
Speaker 2: nine Creighton, two tough teams. They both had pretty good
Speaker 2: seasons I think it'll be a really interesting matchup. Where
Speaker 2: are you guys thinking?
Speaker 3: I for mine, I actually have Creighton in this one.
Speaker 3: I have Creighton beating Louisville. Klek Brenner. I think McDermott's
Speaker 3: a good coach. Gim me Creighton.
Speaker 1: Creighton's my favorite nine in Louisville is my favorite eight.
Speaker 1: So I don't like how these teams are paired against
Speaker 1: each other. I'm going with Louisville because of the geographic advantage.
Speaker 1: They're in Lexington there. It's basically a coin flip. I'll
Speaker 1: go with the team that is at home that I
Speaker 1: think has been playing better as of late.
Speaker 2: Same yeah, I like Louisville here. And then in the
Speaker 2: five to twelve, a Michigan team that just they won
Speaker 2: the Big Ten title game against you see San Diego,
Speaker 2: which will be a very popular upset picks. You see
Speaker 2: San Diego went thirty and four this season. I think
Speaker 2: they have the nation's longest winning streak. I think it's
Speaker 2: like fifteen games. They're playing very well. You guys taking
Speaker 2: the upset, I am, I'm taking you see San Diego.
Speaker 3: I'm not. I think Michigan's playing really well right now.
Speaker 3: I like Michigan.
Speaker 1: I love U see San Diego here. They are just
Speaker 1: a two point underdog as a twelve v.
Speaker 3: Five.
Speaker 1: I don't trust Michigan's offense. I know that the two
Speaker 1: seven the two seven footers do make this scary. It
Speaker 1: wouldn't surprise me if if you see Sandie can't do
Speaker 1: anything with that. But Michigan hasn't been very good at
Speaker 1: defending the three ball, and that is that is definitely
Speaker 1: a strength of their opponent here. I do like the
Speaker 1: twelve seed with the upset.
Speaker 2: Then we got four seed Texas A and M taking
Speaker 2: on thirteen seed yl Yale, team that has pulled an
Speaker 2: upset or two in the past. Do we think they
Speaker 2: have another one in them?
Speaker 1: Not this time A and M beats them?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Yale is kind of stinky.
Speaker 3: Give me the Aggies.
Speaker 1: It's an interesting matchup, and certainly A and M isn't
Speaker 1: a team that I'm just screaming to, that's screaming pick
Speaker 1: me and have me go go deep in the tournament.
Speaker 1: But Wade Taylor exists, and that's usually enough. When one
Speaker 1: of the top four seeds has a iconic superstar like that,
Speaker 1: those teams normally don't lose. You're looking for recipes to
Speaker 1: pick a four seed to lose, a five seed to lose.
Speaker 1: If they have a superstar, those odds go down quite
Speaker 1: a bit. Look at North Carolina right now. I know
Speaker 1: that they're not a four or five seed, but whenever
Speaker 1: two teams are kind of even and one as a
Speaker 1: superstar and one doesn't, usually the tiebreaker.
Speaker 2: Moving out of the bottom half of the South, here
Speaker 2: we got six seed Ole Miss taking on eleven seed
Speaker 2: probably North Carolina based on how that first half went.
Speaker 2: Will Ole Miss uh choke or do the choking?
Speaker 3: You know? Yeah, they're gonna beat the poop. No, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna take I'm gonna take you and see here.
Speaker 1: Yes I am too. Playing teams always win a game.
Speaker 1: North Carolina's up twenty seven points. R J. Davis is
Speaker 1: almost outscoring the Aztecs by himself. I believe that they
Speaker 1: are going to win the Targe Hills. They're really not
Speaker 1: supposed to be here, but usually they whenever you get
Speaker 1: in there, they usually win a game. The playing team winner.
Speaker 3: Does fortunate name RJ or BJ.
Speaker 1: You know Canada, twenty nine years of life, I never
Speaker 1: in a thousand years put that first one together and
Speaker 1: now I see that name. You are sorry, he's Animatromet
Speaker 1: himself is out here taking names.
Speaker 3: Go for reliad I have ole Miss winning this game.
Speaker 2: I don't actually trust you and C at all.
Speaker 1: What's your logic on that? Because everybody seems to like
Speaker 1: ole Miss being upset here? Is it? Is it like
Speaker 1: they've been like, I don't know that you're all in
Speaker 1: on the SEC? I guess or is it just you
Speaker 1: don't trust you and C.
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 2: I'm a little bit all in on the SEC. I'm
Speaker 2: certainly not all in on ole Miss. U and C
Speaker 2: has just kind of proven themselves to be a very
Speaker 2: mediocre team and a not good conference this year. Yes,
Speaker 2: they're blitzing San Diego State, so don't get me wrong there,
Speaker 2: like U and C could pull this. But ole Miss
Speaker 2: has been like a pretty solid team. Yeah, obviously they've
Speaker 2: they've like taken their lumps, everyone in that conference has.
Speaker 2: But I think ole Miss is a much more battle
Speaker 2: tested team than North Carolina. But similar to your your
Speaker 2: Wade Taylor idea with Texas A and M, it would
Speaker 2: it's hard to bet against R. J. Davis come tournament time.
Speaker 2: But also, I just don't think U and C is
Speaker 2: very complete.
Speaker 1: All right, that's fair, that's fair. It should be. The
Speaker 1: game is gonna be really close by points spread. I
Speaker 1: do think more R J. Davis points. I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: excited to see what happened.
Speaker 3: I'm so locked in right now.
Speaker 2: Number three Iowa State. They will it's keishon Gilbert. He
Speaker 2: is out correct, he's out for the tournament.
Speaker 1: He's done for the tournament. That's a big loss for them.
Speaker 1: I think they'll get past lipscumb here, who does shoot
Speaker 1: a lot of threes. Is gonna be one of the
Speaker 1: highest scoring games of the first round. But that's not
Speaker 1: great for their prognosis. Now, prognosis, what's wrong with prognosis?
Speaker 1: Prognosis means is that a word?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I am stupid.
Speaker 1: I've been here in the I've been hearing the VET
Speaker 1: a lot say prognosis like, okah, that's fair. So R J.
Speaker 1: Davis gets fouled on a three cam that is coming
Speaker 1: up here.
Speaker 3: Come, I'm so such a degenerate.
Speaker 2: We like number seven Marquette or ten New Mexico. It's
Speaker 2: marcav Shaka cum tournament time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it is Markatt. I think that the
Speaker 1: Golden Eagles are the better team. Pretty disappointing ending to
Speaker 1: their regular season, but I think they're better. The Mountain
Speaker 1: West never does well in this tournament, as evidenced by
Speaker 1: what the Aztecs are doing right now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they need the owl Man as well.
Speaker 2: Cam does Sparty start the Natty run against fifteen Bryant.
Speaker 3: They start a run, not a Natty run, but they
Speaker 3: do beat Bryant.
Speaker 1: I agree, yes, there if I had to beat on
Speaker 1: a top two seed losing in the first round, it's
Speaker 1: this one. Brian's kind of nasty.
Speaker 3: I Michigan State is not losing to Brian.
Speaker 1: No, I don't think they will. But that's the that's
Speaker 1: the one that I deal with, all right, Cam drive
Speaker 1: the East as R. J. Davis misses a free throw
Speaker 1: and leaves you a little bit further away from a
Speaker 1: big win. But you still have lots of time. What
Speaker 1: does he have? Sixteen? If you can't score four points
Speaker 1: in the last seventeen minutes of this game, then that's
Speaker 1: how it goes Man's why that's why you call the number.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know in the East region, I assume we're
Speaker 3: all taking number one seed Duke over the Winter of
Speaker 3: American or mainstream media whatever MSM stands for.
Speaker 1: Cooper. Flagg said he's gonna play, and that's good enough
Speaker 1: for me. Blue Devils, Yes.
Speaker 3: Sir checks out. Okay, eight nine game Mississippi State or Baylor, boy?
Speaker 2: This is this is like I like Baylor to get one.
Speaker 1: See I I have Baylor mocked in.
Speaker 3: Here, I have Mississippi State. I I don't trust Baylor
Speaker 3: at all.
Speaker 1: Baylor is a little bit of an underdog. I am
Speaker 1: gonna say that they win this game, and I hate it.
Speaker 1: I'm just nausea saying it. But I'm using my logic
Speaker 1: of the superstar. They have one. His name is VJ. Edgecombe.
Speaker 1: I think he gets them past Mississippi State. But that's
Speaker 1: a bad idea. And Camp this is why Camp one
Speaker 1: pick him. He's right and we're wrong.
Speaker 3: I don't know. We'll see. What about five twelve Oregon
Speaker 3: versus Liberty.
Speaker 1: I sense an upset coming from the other from land
Speaker 1: in here. Am I right?
Speaker 2: You are right, Liberty. They defend well and they shoot
Speaker 2: three as well, And that's good enough for me to
Speaker 2: be the sleepy Organ team.
Speaker 1: It feels like Organ's always in the five to twelve games.
Speaker 1: Sometimes they're the twelve and sometimes they're the five.
Speaker 2: Correct.
Speaker 3: I yep, I think three.
Speaker 1: I think they might just be as weird as this sounds.
Speaker 1: They might just be the team that I think goes
Speaker 1: the furthest in the Big Ten. Give me the Ducks.
Speaker 3: Oh that's crazy, take I will take the docks. Here
Speaker 3: we have Arizona versus Acron and a four v thirteen matchup.
Speaker 1: A lot of points Arizona's better, though Arizona's much better.
Speaker 2: I think this will be a game that is, like
Speaker 2: weirdly a little closer than it should be. But Arizona
Speaker 2: wins by a fair hit.
Speaker 1: Tommy Lloyd does not have a great track record in
Speaker 1: the NCAA tournament, So what could they screw We just
Speaker 1: talked about Buffalo, and I know that wasn't Tommy Lloyd,
Speaker 1: but still could we see them screw around? Yes? But
Speaker 1: normally two teams that are this far apart of the
Speaker 1: seed line when one play, when they play similar styles,
Speaker 1: normally the better version wins out. Unless it's Alabama or
Speaker 1: it's Arizona v. Princeton.
Speaker 3: It's true, that is true. Interesting interesting match up here,
Speaker 3: and yeah, I'm taking Arizona. Interesting matchup. Peer number six
Speaker 3: seed BYU versus eleven seed VCU do you guys smell
Speaker 3: an upset?
Speaker 2: It's close, but no.
Speaker 1: No, I don't. BYU lost in the spot last year.
Speaker 1: I don't think it happens again. This is a great
Speaker 1: clash of styles. Team that shoots a lot versus one
Speaker 1: of the best defensive teams. I think VCU is kind
Speaker 1: of underseedd, but I think BYU is a sleeper.
Speaker 3: Gimme the Cougars. I actually just changed my pick to BYU,
Speaker 3: so I will take BYU as well. Three seed Wisconsin
Speaker 3: versus fourteen seed Montana.
Speaker 1: Wisconsin is a huge favorite, like this should be their win.
Speaker 1: Montana asn't. Montana hasn't done a whole lot this year,
Speaker 1: but they have been They have been bad a lot.
Speaker 1: As an upset, I don't think. I agree.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Wisconsin is is pretty legitimately good. To
Speaker 2: give me the.
Speaker 3: Badgers, yep, give me the Badgers. Here we have Oh
Speaker 3: Saint Mary verse number ten, Vanderbilt, Landon's favorite school seven
Speaker 3: v ten.
Speaker 2: Who do we have not Mary's double digits?
Speaker 1: Yeah that's the answer.
Speaker 3: St.
Speaker 1: Mary's gonna be sucks yep.
Speaker 3: Yeah, crazy that Kansas is the same seed line as them.
Speaker 3: And then we have two seed Bama verse number fifteen
Speaker 3: seed Robert Morris. Fun fact, a guy named Robert Morris
Speaker 3: was arrested for leude axe last night. I can't remember where,
Speaker 3: but that is true.
Speaker 1: Why not only Cam knows this?
Speaker 3: I saw this online, dude as yeah, something about a
Speaker 3: minor not ideal whoa remember it's all like until proven guilty,
Speaker 3: Like he was.
Speaker 1: Pushing the card of gold and didn't get enough gold
Speaker 1: for the day.
Speaker 3: Is that?
Speaker 1: Is that what you mean there?
Speaker 3: Right? Sure, I don't know what you mean by that,
Speaker 3: but why.
Speaker 2: Not you want to bring his canary into a mind shaft?
Speaker 1: They will Robert Morris will not will have as good
Speaker 1: of a week as that Robert Morris did because Alabama
Speaker 1: will sit on them.
Speaker 2: Yeah yep yeah, Alabama by many points.
Speaker 1: In the Midwest. Number one, Houston is going to destroy
Speaker 1: s i U e as proof that we have too
Speaker 1: many teams that are too many colleges, if that's one.
Speaker 1: And then Gonzaga and Georgia in the eight nine game,
Speaker 1: This to me feels like the most lopsided of the
Speaker 1: eight nines. I think Gonzaga wins by a lot. Georgia's
Speaker 1: had a pretty nice year, but they did not get
Speaker 1: a nice straw here.
Speaker 2: Give me Oga because athletic team and lose.
Speaker 1: Interesting, Okay, I see, I don't see that one at all.
Speaker 1: I I maybe sipping the ken palm and the bar
Speaker 1: Torvic and all that a little bit too much. But
Speaker 1: I think that I think Gonzaga they have the experience,
Speaker 1: they have one of the best backcourts. I think that
Speaker 1: they are they are the pick to go and play
Speaker 1: Houston Totte.
Speaker 2: I agree Zaga are on paper a better team in
Speaker 2: every way, but that has not mattered to Gonzaga before.
Speaker 1: That's true, BPI and net and all that stuff like
Speaker 1: hasn't mattered. George is a better defensive team, so they're
Speaker 1: gonna have to play it their style. Clemson and McNeice
Speaker 1: in the five E twelve game, the Bulldogs had a
Speaker 1: real the Tigers, not the Bulldogs. The Tigers are just
Speaker 1: talking about the Bulldogs. Clemson Tigers had a really nice
Speaker 1: regular season. They are twenty seven and six, but that
Speaker 1: is the same record as McNeese State. Tigers are a
Speaker 1: eight point favorite. What say you?
Speaker 2: I think this is one where Clemson wins, but it's
Speaker 2: like by four and it's right down to the wire.
Speaker 2: McNee can't quite close exactly right.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take McNeese here, give me Will Wade, all right?
Speaker 1: Yeah that every year I feel like Will Wade is
Speaker 1: in the turn. Did they draw Gonzaga last year and
Speaker 1: people were like, oh, that it'll be a good one
Speaker 1: and it wasn't even close.
Speaker 3: I think you're right.
Speaker 1: And then Purdue and high Point for the thirteen. High
Speaker 1: Point has a lot of hype behind it. This is
Speaker 1: the most bet on thirteen over four upset Perdue just
Speaker 1: an eight point favorite in this game. But they have
Speaker 1: Braden Smith. He's one of the best players in college basketball.
Speaker 1: Named the first Team All America today. I think Purdue
Speaker 1: has kicked a little bit of their early round woes.
Speaker 1: I do think they get past high Point.
Speaker 2: I don't high Point can fill it up. And Purdue
Speaker 2: is Purdue. Yeah, they did make the Natty last year,
Speaker 2: but why not follow that up with the first round
Speaker 2: exit again? Sandwich again? Runner up with two first round
Speaker 2: losses of double digit seeds.
Speaker 3: I hate that I'm doing this because Seth Davis has it,
Speaker 3: but I'm gonna take high Point two.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, Well look at you guys.
Speaker 2: Cam's been Bobby Pettiford. It's never hurt me most of
Speaker 2: the year.
Speaker 1: That's right. Bobby Pettiford's starting point guard of High Point.
Speaker 1: Illinois draws the sixth seed in the Midwest and they
Speaker 1: will play the winner of Texas and Xavier and the
Speaker 1: next playing game happening on Wednesday night. I don't think
Speaker 1: it matters who they play. Illinois is getting healthier. They
Speaker 1: had a pretty good run in the Big Ten tournament.
Speaker 1: I think the fighting a line and I get a win.
Speaker 2: Give me Texas. Oh and a pick that has never
Speaker 2: failed me before and will never fail me again.
Speaker 1: Tons of orange in that half of the bracket, that
Speaker 1: quarter of the bracket.
Speaker 3: Yeah, true, wow, wild pick man, I'm gonna take I'm
Speaker 3: gonna take Illinois here.
Speaker 1: Number three. Kentucky. They have been a disaster in recent memory.
Speaker 1: In the first round, we saw the Saint Peter's game,
Speaker 1: we saw the Oakland game. Ironically, Landon and I watched
Speaker 1: both of those games together. But unless you come back
Speaker 1: back to back days, we won't see their potential loss
Speaker 1: to Troy. Is that one that you think will happen?
Speaker 2: No, I think Kentucky wins that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Kentucky for sure.
Speaker 1: Kentucky's only an eleven point favorite. Like that's pretty small
Speaker 1: for a three over fourteen, but there is they're They're
Speaker 1: really good at just plot out outscoring infeerior opponents, and
Speaker 1: I think that's what happens here. Number seven Ucla draws
Speaker 1: Number ten Utah State in the very bottom right of
Speaker 1: the bracket. I think the Aggies pull the upset. I
Speaker 1: am not impressed in anyway with anything UCLA has done
Speaker 1: all year, and the Aggies score a lot of points.
Speaker 1: They average almost eighty two points per game. That works
Speaker 1: for me. I'll take the upset.
Speaker 3: Same Yeah, Mick Cronin comes up short again.
Speaker 1: And then we think number two Tennessee will destroy Wafford,
Speaker 1: who is one of the worst teams in the field,
Speaker 1: but you know they played an entertaining conference title game.
Speaker 2: I am taking Tennessee.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, Rick barnes.
Speaker 1: Land, and I guess that means you drive the West region.
Speaker 1: We didn't used to let Nick do this twice for
Speaker 1: obvious reasons, but we can let you.
Speaker 2: Do it twice. I appreciate that level of respect. We're
Speaker 2: all taking Florida. I think I think Florida has become
Speaker 2: maybe one of the two favorites three favorites of this turn.
Speaker 2: I think Florida is outstanding. I think they should have
Speaker 2: been higher than even the fourth one seed, but Florida's
Speaker 2: really good. While taking Florida over Norfolk State and then
Speaker 2: Yukon Oklahoma are two favorite coaches going head to head.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think this is the one of the biggest mismatches.
Speaker 1: Like if I told you right now that an eight
Speaker 1: seed moves to the Sweet sixteen, would Yukon be your pick?
Speaker 2: We will find out. We'll find out soon about that question.
Speaker 1: Wow, that that's interesting. I believe Yukon will win.
Speaker 2: I agree, I think they do win this game. Five
Speaker 2: Memphis overseeded Memphis playing twelve Colorado State, a very dangerous
Speaker 2: Colorado State team they've been playing. Well, who you guys
Speaker 2: got to here? You guys got the upset? Are you
Speaker 2: like Penny Hardaway and the Tigers?
Speaker 3: I have the upset? Give me Colorado State?
Speaker 2: Okay, I do not.
Speaker 1: Have the upset. Pick Colorado State, who is a two
Speaker 1: point betting favorite.
Speaker 2: I'm taking Memphis, No.
Speaker 1: Penny Hardaway, all right, Landon. So in a few weeks,
Speaker 1: whenever Landon vengers into Chicago and yell something as his brothers,
Speaker 1: he's gonna be like, how did I finish last? And
Speaker 1: pick him. It's because you pick Penny Hardaway.
Speaker 2: Hey, he's in the dance, man, He's in the dance.
Speaker 2: He's got a good team. A twenty point win for
Speaker 2: this team. I take Memphis to win.
Speaker 1: Colorado State is favored, They're basically even in all of
Speaker 1: the metrics. I think they win the game.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's fine, you can do that. I'm going the
Speaker 2: opposite way, and that's legal for me to do.
Speaker 1: It.
Speaker 2: Is number four Maryland thirteen Grand Canyon. Maryland's really good
Speaker 2: and I think they're gonna win this game. Yep.
Speaker 3: Agree.
Speaker 1: Grand Canyon had a nice story last year. I don't
Speaker 1: think that's happening again. Tyan Grant Foster older than Zion Williamson,
Speaker 1: by the way, still playing college basketball.
Speaker 3: Pretty crazy Maryland.
Speaker 2: And then a matchup that I think one of the
Speaker 2: more intriguing first round matchups of the entire tournament. We
Speaker 2: have six Missouri against eleven Drake. They called it on
Speaker 2: the Selection show itself a clash of styles. Drake plays
Speaker 2: excellent defense, Missouri fills it up. This is maybe the
Speaker 2: sexiest upset pick of the tournament. Ryan, what do you
Speaker 2: think happens here? Drake Missouri?
Speaker 1: I think Missouri wins, and I don't think it's that close.
Speaker 1: I think this is such an over hyped upset pick.
Speaker 1: Everybody and their mother is saying, but what if Drake
Speaker 1: controls the tempo? Okay, what if they don't? What if
Speaker 1: Missouri hit three threes on him early and makes it
Speaker 1: nine to two, and then you're playing catch up the
Speaker 1: whole game, which is not Drake's style. Drake has a
Speaker 1: very good coach. They also have the best player in
Speaker 1: this game. Missouri has the next four best players. I
Speaker 1: think the Tigers offense carries them tired of hearing about
Speaker 1: Drake's defense isn't even that good. They played a slow pace,
Speaker 1: so their opponents score as many points think Virginia, but
Speaker 1: not as good actually defending the ball. I think that
Speaker 1: as our points. Cam, Yeah, Cam cash, that betting slip
Speaker 1: in the middle of my best analysis of the Cam
Speaker 1: on a bag just now the man is hot. But yes,
Speaker 1: I think I don't think it's that close. Give me
Speaker 1: the Tigers. What do you think, Drake?
Speaker 2: I'll take Drake now.
Speaker 3: It's I think only since before.
Speaker 1: Four the upset everybody says is going to happen is
Speaker 1: the one that doesn't.
Speaker 2: It that is extremely true. I agree with that. Very
Speaker 2: rarely happens.
Speaker 3: That's also what I think about High point two in
Speaker 3: some ways. So we're going to be wrong a lot.
Speaker 1: Yes, we are going to be the nature of the bracket.
Speaker 1: For the record, this is as confident, and you're never
Speaker 1: confident filling out a bracket, but like this is as
Speaker 1: more so than many years do. I look at this
Speaker 1: and think, Okay, this seems pretty straightforward. There's a handful
Speaker 1: of teams that are head and shoulders above everybody else.
Speaker 1: You may not get all the first and second round
Speaker 1: games right, but the teams are going to be standing
Speaker 1: at the end. It seems like it should be straightforward.
Speaker 1: It won't be, but on paper it seems like it
Speaker 1: should be.
Speaker 2: I agree. There are heavy favorites this year, more so
Speaker 2: than normal.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Three Texas Tech fourteen un C Wilmington. I like Tech
Speaker 2: a lot. I think Tech is in a second tier
Speaker 2: of teams that are really, really good, and I will
Speaker 2: take them to win.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 3: Same.
Speaker 1: Everybody always falls in love with UNC Wilmington. Oh, it's
Speaker 1: like Makenee's State. And I don't know if they've ever
Speaker 1: won one of these games. Did they beat Perdue or
Speaker 1: was that North Texas. I think that was North Texas.
Speaker 1: So forget that it was North Texas.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 1: They never I remember everybody thought they'd beat Virginia and
Speaker 1: they did. End they always are in this game and
Speaker 1: they never win it.
Speaker 2: Then we have a number seven Kansas playing ten bo Arkansas.
Speaker 2: Are we taking it right here?
Speaker 1: You got to let the brackets aga give me the
Speaker 1: j Birds. I think they take down Arkansas.
Speaker 2: Yep, in a game that makes you sweat your ball
Speaker 2: hair off. I'm gonna take.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take Kansas as well.
Speaker 1: All three of us, all right, all together?
Speaker 3: Now, everybody play the music. Oh yes, Bill Seffer's John
Speaker 3: Calipari and the NCAA tournament this week silier than you thought.
Speaker 1: If we had been told at the beginning of the
Speaker 1: year it's it's Kansas and Arkansas, and the turnout, you'd
Speaker 1: be like, oh, what a sexy Elite eight game that's
Speaker 1: gonna be.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like wow, one match up, that's amazing.
Speaker 2: Oh boy, Well, we're all taking the Jayhawks. We'll see
Speaker 2: how far that goes. I'm taking Saint John's to beat
Speaker 2: Omaha because Saint John's is a good team in Omaha
Speaker 2: is a fifteen yep.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Omaha only has a screen.
Speaker 1: So now we move a little deeper into the tournament,
Speaker 1: and you all know the first round picks. So then
Speaker 1: if we all say are sweet sixteen's, then everybody should
Speaker 1: be able to figure out who we have win in
Speaker 1: the second round game. In my Sweet sixteen in the South,
Speaker 1: I have Auburn playing twelve seed you see San Diego.
Speaker 1: I think the Tigers get past Louisville into the facto
Speaker 1: road game, and then I think you see San Diego
Speaker 1: takes down not one, but two top five seeds and
Speaker 1: makes the Sweet sixteen. Then at the bottom of that region,
Speaker 1: I'll go to another double digit seed, this one the
Speaker 1: North Carolina Tariels to take down a shorthanded Iowa state
Speaker 1: team and meet tom Izzo Spartans, who do put up
Speaker 1: a stinker of an aff against Marquette but survive.
Speaker 2: I have also have twelve seed you see San Diego
Speaker 2: in my Sweet sixteen, all of them playing eight seed Louisville.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 1: Wow, so that's the one you had. Auburn's lost three
Speaker 1: of four. You're a little spooked, huh Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: we've been wondering if Auburn has peaked too early I'm
Speaker 1: gonna buy into that Louisville trending in the right direction.
Speaker 2: I think, yes, they lose to Duke. Everyone loses to Duke,
Speaker 2: so I'm gonna take I'm gonna take the Cardinal to
Speaker 2: take down Auburn in that game. That will set up
Speaker 2: eight Louisville versus twelve US of San Diego for me,
Speaker 2: I have three Iowa State beating Ole Miss. I know
Speaker 2: they're shorthanded, they've been short handed a different points in
Speaker 2: this year. They've still won a lot of games. So
Speaker 2: I'll take Iowa State over Ole Miss. Do not trust
Speaker 2: Ole Miss very much. And I'm take seven Marquette to
Speaker 2: upset Michigan State and get to the sweet sixteen in
Speaker 2: the South.
Speaker 1: A true busted bracket for you in the South with
Speaker 1: the one and the two going out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that one, that one got wacky.
Speaker 3: It might happen, you never know. Mine's a lot more shock.
Speaker 3: I have Number one Auburn beating Number nine Creighton. Auburn
Speaker 3: to the Sweet sixteen. I still think they're very good.
Speaker 3: Number five Michigan. I'm putting my faith in the Dusty
Speaker 3: May basket. Probably won't work well, but he's gonna take
Speaker 3: down Texas A and m go to the sweet sixteen.
Speaker 3: I have Iowa State actually beating North Carolina to get
Speaker 3: to the Sweet sixteen, and then Michigan State beating Shakas
Speaker 3: Smart to go to the Sweet sixteen, and.
Speaker 1: Then who's your final four team coming out of there?
Speaker 1: I have Auburn beating Michigan State the number one overall seed.
Speaker 1: That's a boring one over too, but the number one
Speaker 1: overall seed has made nine of the last twenty final four.
Speaker 1: It's basically a coin flip. I'll say it happens this year.
Speaker 1: Give me Jane I Broom to the final four.
Speaker 2: I have Louisville over Marquette as Louisville makes a final.
Speaker 1: Four run bonkers, landing bonkers.
Speaker 3: I have the third horseman of the apocalypse, Michigan State
Speaker 3: over Michigan to the final four.
Speaker 2: Michigan Elite eight would be electric, whole.
Speaker 1: State with it, and then Cam would Cam would have
Speaker 1: to see all the January February tweets from John Rod.
Speaker 3: I'm just so sick of it. I don't even care.
Speaker 3: I'm so sick of it. It's just so stupid. I'd like,
Speaker 3: you know, I don't even you guys, shouldn't have said it.
Speaker 3: I don't care.
Speaker 1: Tom Mizzo is a nice guy, but he hasn't wonted
Speaker 1: title since two thousand. I know he seems like an ass.
Speaker 3: No, he's a super nice guy, but he pisses me
Speaker 3: off because they never win.
Speaker 1: LANDA. What do you think? I don't know if Tom
Speaker 1: Mizzo seems like that nice of a guy.
Speaker 2: He seems like an easily irritable guy, which doesn't usually
Speaker 2: scream nice, but he does seem.
Speaker 1: He has because he's screamed at kids his whole life.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the kids love him. I don't even I
Speaker 3: can't believe I'm standing up for Tom Mizzough after all
Speaker 3: the crap that I've said on.
Speaker 1: The show, and you're coming for his nickname too. It's January, February, Cam, Now,
Speaker 1: don't you understand it is?
Speaker 3: It is my month. It's it's officially my month. I
Speaker 3: I have I am cooking right now. Check in with me.
Speaker 1: Davis first at a tournament, and Cam's already up like
Speaker 1: seventy bucks.
Speaker 3: Right, I'm allegedly doing very well.
Speaker 1: All right, I thought you said it was factual earlier.
Speaker 1: We're back to allegedly status. Now, let's forget what we have.
Speaker 1: Let's see what we have allegedly happening in the East region,
Speaker 1: where I will take Duke to beat Baylor Gross and
Speaker 1: Arizona to pick Oregon. Kind of a boring one before there,
Speaker 1: but I think Arizona, while I'm not super crazy about him,
Speaker 1: Caleb Love is a star on this todage. We've seen
Speaker 1: it before, and I don't really like Oregon, Liberty or
Speaker 1: Akron in their pods, so I think they make they
Speaker 1: Sweet sixteen and then give me BYU to pull the
Speaker 1: upset over Wisconsin and play Alabama and the Sweet sixteen.
Speaker 2: I have Duke, I have Liberty pulling an upset over Arizona,
Speaker 2: Soke Liberty, and then I also have BYU Alabama. I
Speaker 2: have bou beating Wisconsin and Alabama beating Vandy.
Speaker 3: Yep, all right, I have Duke as well, Arizona over Oregon,
Speaker 3: BYU over Wisconsin, and Bama over Vandy.
Speaker 1: Very similar reason here. I will take the Cougars to
Speaker 1: make the Elite eight, and in the run of Natoates's team,
Speaker 1: I would love to see BYU versus Alabama. We haven't
Speaker 1: seen Alabama defend against quality offensive teams. I think it
Speaker 1: burns them. But I think it's due. Who goes to
Speaker 1: the Final four by beating BYU and the Elite Eight.
Speaker 2: I went back and forth on the BYU Alabama game.
Speaker 2: I did take Alabama, but I will send Duke to
Speaker 2: the Final Four over the Crimson Tide. Duke goes to
Speaker 2: the Final four.
Speaker 3: I think I might change my pick right now. Sadly, Nah,
Speaker 3: you know what, screw it. I hate Duke. Give me
Speaker 3: Duke beating Arizona and the Sweet sixteen meeting Bama and
Speaker 3: then Bama shoots the lights out to go to the
Speaker 3: Final four over Duke.
Speaker 1: I will say if Alabama played Duke in the Elite Eight,
Speaker 1: I would pick the Crimson Tide, like if I knew
Speaker 1: that matchup was coming, because I think Natos would out
Speaker 1: coach John Shire in the clutch moments.
Speaker 2: I think Cooper Flag would out basketball Alabama.
Speaker 1: That's true. I could definitely happen there as well. All right,
Speaker 1: in the Midwest, Houston Gonzaga standalone game. Who Winson has dogs?
Speaker 1: Landon has the dogs there?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, well they're both dogs, but I have ugly dogs.
Speaker 2: Boy is that Houston wins?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think Houston will beat Gonzaga. But that's that
Speaker 1: is a razor thin margin for a really good Cougar's team. Yeah,
Speaker 1: give me Houston and then Clemson over Purdue for me,
Speaker 1: Illinois over Kentucky. Give me the sixth seed fighting a
Speaker 1: LINEI to make the Sweet sixteen, and then Tennessee blasts
Speaker 1: Utah State.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I have Houston Clemson as well, and then I
Speaker 2: have Kentucky beating Texas in Tennessee beating Utah State.
Speaker 3: I have Houston to the Sweet sixteen over Gonzaga. I
Speaker 3: have a Will Wade Legacy Tournament with McNeese State going
Speaker 3: to Sweet sixteen, number six Illinois over three Kentucky, and
Speaker 3: two Tennessee to the Sweet sixteen.
Speaker 1: I don't love Illinois here and I definitely don't love Tennessee,
Speaker 1: but that entire bottom right, there are people I don't
Speaker 1: trust at all, like Kentucky and Texas and Mick Cronin.
Speaker 3: No thank you, literally any.
Speaker 1: Landon is all in on the acc Duke in the
Speaker 1: Final four, Clemson going deep and Louisville pulling off as
Speaker 1: Cinderella run to get into a Final four.
Speaker 2: Uh, that is factually correct. I do have Clemson beating
Speaker 2: like high Point to get to the Sweet sixteen, and
Speaker 2: also Duke is Duke, but yes, that is true, all.
Speaker 1: Right, And then do we already say I will go
Speaker 1: with Houston over Tennessee. I think the Cougars are going
Speaker 1: to the Final four. I have picked three to one seeds,
Speaker 1: which is so incredibly boring, but I think those three
Speaker 1: teams are a step above everybody else, and I think
Speaker 1: the matchups are kind of irrelevant.
Speaker 2: I also have Houston over Tennessee. I have two one
Speaker 2: seats in an eight.
Speaker 1: Houston would have gone to the National title game last
Speaker 1: year if it wasn't for Jamal shed Or getting hurt.
Speaker 2: They were extremely good.
Speaker 1: I think this year their point guard does not get
Speaker 1: hurt and they go to the Final four. And then
Speaker 1: in the West Region, Florida narrowly beats Yukon. I so
Speaker 1: oh so badly wanted to pick that, but I just
Speaker 1: don't think Yukon is good enough. Colorado State puts up
Speaker 1: a fight against Maryland but comes up short. I really
Speaker 1: like the Terrapins. I think they and Oregon are the
Speaker 1: two teams I trust the most from the Big Ten.
Speaker 1: As weird as that is to say, Texas Tech beats
Speaker 1: Missouri in a high scoring game and.
Speaker 3: Then oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: Well, in a game that Vegas would have is about
Speaker 1: a three point line, the talent and potential wins out
Speaker 1: and the Kansas Jayhawks beat Saint John's out sweet sixteen.
Speaker 3: Oh man, okay, you to the final TV time out
Speaker 3: and they're like, Kansas has not caught the deficit. Meanwhile,
Speaker 3: Saint John's is not scored in the last ten minutes,
Speaker 3: Kansas remains down four. Bill Soef's like picking his nose.
Speaker 3: Curtis Townsend's trying to order big Booty Latinas off of
Speaker 3: the stat sheet for DVR at the hotel.
Speaker 1: That's powerably paid for with taxpayer dollars.
Speaker 3: To oh boy, why do you do this to yourself?
Speaker 1: A good this this time? I actually really liked their draw.
Speaker 3: I don't. I mean I do, but I don't.
Speaker 2: But Ryan, they're not any good.
Speaker 3: They're not good.
Speaker 1: See talk to me in a week.
Speaker 3: I will.
Speaker 2: I'll say Saint John's beating them by fourteen. Florida over Yukon.
Speaker 2: I do think that'll be a good game. But I
Speaker 2: really like Florida. I think Florida is peaking and they're
Speaker 2: just they're kind of a brilliant basketball team. I think
Speaker 2: I have number four, Maryland taken on Memphis. I have
Speaker 2: three Texas Tech over Drake, and I have number two
Speaker 2: Saint John's beating the Kansas Jayhawks.
Speaker 3: Boo yeah. I have Florida over Yukon, Maryland over Colorio
Speaker 3: State Text Tech over Missou, and then I have Saint
Speaker 3: John's beating Kansas.
Speaker 1: Boo double booze. Okay, I will ultimately say Kansas's run ends.
Speaker 1: In this week's sixteen, they lose the Tech for the
Speaker 1: second time this year. Florida beats Maryland, and then give
Speaker 1: me the Red Raiders. I'll set the Big twelve kool
Speaker 1: aid a little bit. Texas Tech takes out Florida and
Speaker 1: goes to the final four. Now, if you'll excuse me,
Speaker 1: one of the cats just used litterbox and left a
Speaker 1: turd in a really unfortunate place where it's kind of
Speaker 1: like the in the way where now the others can't
Speaker 1: get in without stepping on said turd, and they're all
Speaker 1: kind of looking at me like, are you gonna do
Speaker 1: something about this or else? I'm just gonna go on
Speaker 1: the floor. So I'm gonna go fix the issue while
Speaker 1: you guys give some analysis.
Speaker 2: I also have Florida Tech I'm gonna take Florida to
Speaker 2: go to the Final four over the Red Raiders Cam.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I kind of. I really think Florida is an
Speaker 3: e leaite team. I have Florida over text Tech too.
Speaker 3: I love text Tech. I said they're a final four team. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I said Tech a few weeks ago as a final
Speaker 3: four team. I think I would have picked them to
Speaker 3: the Final four if they didn't have to play Florida.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I do really like Texas Tech. I think they
Speaker 2: are in I think it was like about a top
Speaker 2: ten ish of great teams, but I think there is
Speaker 2: a top three or four of the title contenders, and
Speaker 2: I think Texts just outside of that.
Speaker 3: I think Florida is that's one hundred percent right, That
Speaker 3: is one hundred percent correct.
Speaker 1: Final four Auburn Texas Tech. I am back Turts cleaned,
Speaker 1: Auburn Texas Tech, Duke and Houston kind of a boring
Speaker 1: three ones and a three. I like having balls picks,
Speaker 1: I do, but this year I just think those are
Speaker 1: the three best teams. And then I think Florida has
Speaker 1: the toughest bracket, so I'll pick them to go out.
Speaker 1: I will say that the one seeds Houston and Auburn
Speaker 1: meet in the title game and give me the Houston
Speaker 1: Cougars to cut down the nets and rep the Big twelve.
Speaker 1: I think that whenever they are at their best, they
Speaker 1: are the nation's toughest team, combined with talent and playing
Speaker 1: well and health. Right now, I'm a little bit leery
Speaker 1: about the way that their games will be officiated because
Speaker 1: there's such a physical team, But I think they are
Speaker 1: the most complete whenever it comes to offense, the Ben's health, coaching,
Speaker 1: in tangibles all that, I think they win the Natty.
Speaker 2: I have eight Louisville playing number one Florida and one
Speaker 2: Duke versus one Houston. I also have three ones at
Speaker 2: least I do have an eight in there. There. There's
Speaker 2: pretty often a weird team that makes it that that
Speaker 2: shouldn't otherwise be there.
Speaker 1: That's Louisville, like seven Kansas will be here in just
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks.
Speaker 2: Absolutely no Grandpa in the title game. I have Florida
Speaker 2: playing Duke, and I have Cooper Flag in his one
Speaker 2: year in college basketball becoming a national champion. Give me
Speaker 2: the Duke Blue Devils there there. Their top end is
Speaker 2: is so elite. I know Florida would be the best
Speaker 2: team they've played in a long time, and that is
Speaker 2: very fair. So at Houston, but I think I think
Speaker 2: they have real NBA players. I mean obviously Cooper Flag,
Speaker 2: but also con Kanneppel. They're they're very good. Yes, I'm
Speaker 2: picking john Shire to win a national championship, but I
Speaker 2: think Duke's elite talent wins this title.
Speaker 1: Landon, I don't know. I'm sure you gave really good analysis,
Speaker 1: but you'll have to forgive me. I didn't really hear
Speaker 1: much of it because I don't know if you saw
Speaker 1: the Cameron Brink New Balance ad that just aired. So
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna assume that you gave great analysis.
Speaker 2: I didn't. I'm gonna find that and enjoy it.
Speaker 1: For my final Remember when Nick said that was the
Speaker 1: worst take of Nick's career. Really it was, and Nick
Speaker 1: said that that Remy Martin is the best player in
Speaker 1: the history of Kansas basketball somehow, as Cameron Brink take
Speaker 1: was worse. Sorry, Cam floor is yours.
Speaker 3: No, you're good. H My final four, I have number
Speaker 3: one seed Florida taking down Michigan State another time is
Speaker 3: a Final four participation trophy. And then I have number
Speaker 3: two Bama. Actually beating Houston with a lot of elite offense,
Speaker 3: and I have Florida taking down Bama in the title
Speaker 3: game in an all SEC title game.
Speaker 1: So we all have a different Natty pick, but they're
Speaker 1: all teams that we have in our final fours, like
Speaker 1: I like, like I went with Houston to win a title.
Speaker 1: Who CAM has losing in the final four? Cam went
Speaker 1: with uh or am I the only one with Auburn
Speaker 1: in the final four?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, right, that's that's interesting. Okay, we all have we
Speaker 1: all have a one seed winning and it's somebody else
Speaker 1: and none of us picked the number one overall seed.
Speaker 2: Yeah that's true. That is true.
Speaker 3: No, that's why we're not smart.
Speaker 1: Right, Well, would you look at that? We did it,
Speaker 1: We went through the bracket, and now it's time to
Speaker 1: hyperfixate on one team, a surefire victory for the team
Speaker 1: that we love the most. It is NCA tournament time.
Speaker 1: I will play the music just.
Speaker 3: For you, Bill.
Speaker 1: Because number seven Kansas and number ten Arkansas from Providence,
Speaker 1: Rhode Island paradise. I'm just gonna dance.
Speaker 2: Hopefully we'll still be dancing. We all did pitcans to
Speaker 2: beat Arkansas, so that's spoiler alert for that, I suppose.
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's read.
Speaker 2: John cal Perry's Arkansas Razorbacks went twenty and thirteen overall,
Speaker 2: they went eight and ten in the SEC. They ranked
Speaker 2: fortieth in Ken Palm, which is okay. Also, this game
Speaker 2: we've played on Thursday, March twentieth and six ten pm
Speaker 2: Central Time on CBS Jase, we're wondering Adu Thierro won't
Speaker 2: play this week, but they'll get point guard Boogie flanned Back,
Speaker 2: who is their leading scort with fifteen points and six
Speaker 2: assist So that's a huge return for the Razorbacks for
Speaker 2: a guy who has not played since January eighteenth. He
Speaker 2: shoot thirty seven percent from three is an excellent rim attacker.
Speaker 2: Athletic wings Janelle Davis and DJ Wagner at eleven points each,
Speaker 2: but neither shoot better than thirty two percent from the outside,
Speaker 2: which screams three for four each in the first half.
Speaker 1: Yep, sure does.
Speaker 3: Arkansas bigs include seven seven foot two centers. You can
Speaker 3: I buy a vowel vis from Yeah, whoever is nine
Speaker 3: and five. We'll blocking a couple of shots per game.
Speaker 3: Jonas I do, Trevon Brazil, I sound like Nick trying
Speaker 3: to read and Carter Knox on the other front court
Speaker 3: guys of note, they'll average about eight points per game.
Speaker 3: They had a few boards. They rely on on athleticism
Speaker 3: over raw shooting, and as a team, they're pretty mediocre
Speaker 3: on the glass.
Speaker 1: No, Cam, Here's how Nick would have read that. Jonas Ado,
Speaker 1: Travion Brazil, and Cameron brink ew gross, that's what Nick.
Speaker 3: Would have done, braille handwriting, Trevon Diggs, Carter k Knox.
Speaker 1: And and Paige Bookers who is not attractive? Ryan? Why
Speaker 1: are you putting this picture in the notes? What the heck?
Speaker 1: And then Landa and I would have bopped Nick right
Speaker 1: on the head with a hammer.
Speaker 2: He would have had to do that to us because
Speaker 2: we would have been in horny jail.
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right. Where well, which one of the
Speaker 1: four of us, if you include Nick, is in horny
Speaker 1: jail the most?
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know how to answer that question.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's actually it's it's kind of a tie. I
Speaker 2: feel like I feel like it's fairly equal. I mean,
Speaker 2: I'm looking at pictures of Cameron brink so maybe it's me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's that's the answer. For the time being.
Speaker 1: I will say the most shocking and abhorrent things that
Speaker 1: would make you think that. In our group, text cam
Speaker 1: will send the most shocking and abhorrent images that would
Speaker 1: make you think that, and Landon the Internet history just
Speaker 1: may back it up.
Speaker 2: I'm the most single. So there's that.
Speaker 1: The Razor are young, long, and very athletic. They are
Speaker 1: a top five shot blocking team in the country. Well,
Speaker 1: wouldn't you like to know they It's Landon's profile picture
Speaker 1: on my phone.
Speaker 3: So uh.
Speaker 1: And we drove a rental car around a road trip
Speaker 1: here last week, and it's advanced enough where the car
Speaker 1: play when you get a text that pops up with
Speaker 1: the person's picture and their name, like it like an
Speaker 1: Apple car play thing does. And when Landon texts me,
Speaker 1: the picture of Landon and my wife on a honeymoon
Speaker 1: beach pops up. Which is a long story.
Speaker 3: And we've added a layer of conspiracy to the iceberg here.
Speaker 3: Ryan might be a swinger. That's the new conspiracy type
Speaker 3: of the iceberg inside the paint.
Speaker 1: That's not me, me the swinger. No.
Speaker 3: When Ryan goes to the grocery store, he puts a
Speaker 3: pineapple in the front of his cart and he walks
Speaker 3: around wearing a skinny tank.
Speaker 1: Top upside down upside down of course, or don't forget
Speaker 1: about y. Yeah, but my type of women don't like pineapples.
Speaker 3: No, they they don't. They uh well, they deep fry them.
Speaker 1: They like upside out pineapple cake more than pineapple. Oh well, yeah,
Speaker 1: so you asked the horny jail question and we kind
Speaker 1: of just made it worse anyway. The Razorbacks are young, long,
Speaker 1: and very athletic. Get your jopes. They are a top
Speaker 1: five shot walking team in the country. You'd already did. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're excellent avoiding fouls. This is John cala Perry's prototypical lineup.
Speaker 1: They draw a lot of contact. They're a good free
Speaker 1: throw shooting team at seventy four percent of the line
Speaker 1: on offense. They are not particularly fast paced, and they're
Speaker 1: an okay at everything sort of team. They shoot just
Speaker 1: thirty three percent as a team from deep. I think
Speaker 1: one of the things that everybody, especially Kansas, wants to
Speaker 1: avoid in their March madness straw are teams that launch threes.
Speaker 1: Arkansas doesn't really do that very much, and should Kansas win,
Speaker 1: neither to Saint John. So you're okay in that regard.
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean that the thirty percent guy who still won't
Speaker 1: go three for four. Is Landon said, but at least
Speaker 1: on paper it looks okay. Arkansas attacks the basket well,
Speaker 1: but nobody on the team besides Flanned is a particularly
Speaker 1: good shooter, and he has not played in in two months,
Speaker 1: so we all know he's gonna make his first five shots,
Speaker 1: but maybe not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 2: All time. Kansas is eight and six against Arkansas. In
Speaker 2: the last meeting was in the round to thirty two
Speaker 2: two years ago, when the Razorbacks beat top seeded Kansas
Speaker 2: by one point. Cay's only the game against Arkansas and
Speaker 2: the Bill self era was a one point loss in
Speaker 2: Maui in two thousand and six, which was nineteen years ago.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: The last win against them was in nineteen ninety one
Speaker 2: in the NCA Tournament. This is also Kansas's first ever
Speaker 2: game in the state of Rhode Island.
Speaker 1: Has anybody ever gone to Rhode Island? Like, really, No,
Speaker 1: it's all alleged, right, no one goes there.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure if it's in real plays.
Speaker 1: It's smaller than Chicago, It's smaller than a lot of cities.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's pretty weird that they have an NCAA tournament
Speaker 3: location there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really just out of nowhere, Like there's so
Speaker 1: many other cities up there that makes it. It's like
Speaker 1: New York or Hartford or something. Providence. Okay, did you
Speaker 1: see the video of the Arkansas watch party at John
Speaker 1: cala Perry's house and cal Pari's addressing the team. He goes, Okay, guys,
Speaker 1: we're going to Providence and a player asked them where's
Speaker 1: that and he didn't know. Cal said he's in the
Speaker 1: United States. Yes, nobody knows where Providence is except for
Speaker 1: the homeschoolers Landon and I are like, I know exactly
Speaker 1: where that is. I can find it on a map
Speaker 1: with a blindfold.
Speaker 2: So when you're homeschooled and a massive sports fan, it's
Speaker 2: not that hard.
Speaker 1: That's correct. Okay, well we all know. You all know
Speaker 1: that we're picking Kansas to win this game based on
Speaker 1: the brackets. But I am gonna pick Kansas to win comfortably.
Speaker 1: I think Kansas is better than Arkansas. I think they
Speaker 1: are better coach than Arkansas. I think they have better
Speaker 1: shooters than Arkansas, and I trust them more. There's not
Speaker 1: a lot of teams I trust Kansas more than but
Speaker 1: Arkansas is one of them. The Razorbacks are limped to
Speaker 1: the finish line. They've lost like four of their last seven,
Speaker 1: including an embarrassing loss to South Carolina, who then they
Speaker 1: almost lost to again in the SEC Tournament. I think
Speaker 1: that Kansas has been playing better than Arkansas in the
Speaker 1: last few games. I think that KAU has the advantage
Speaker 1: with Dickinson, and I think Kansas coasts. They get an
Speaker 1: early lead and they coast a little bit. I think
Speaker 1: the Jayhawks wins seventy eight to sixty four in a
Speaker 1: game that keeps bill selves. I've won every game the
Speaker 1: last twenty years of the NCAA Tournament streak alive.
Speaker 2: I am also, of course going to take Kansas. I
Speaker 2: think this game is close. I do think KAU is
Speaker 2: better coach than Arkansas. I do not just Arkansas to close.
Speaker 2: I don't think Kansas has built at all to handle
Speaker 2: teams that are this athletic, though. I think that is
Speaker 2: going to give the Jayhawks some problems. Like I said,
Speaker 2: I think I think Arkansas is every John cal Perry
Speaker 2: team in the last few years. They're really talented, a
Speaker 2: lot of athleticism, and they have truly atrocious shot selection
Speaker 2: and pretty bad on defense. I think that will bode
Speaker 2: well for the Jayhawks. I think they will score a
Speaker 2: decent amount of points. I think this game will be
Speaker 2: fairly high scoring, but I think it's gonna be close.
Speaker 2: I don't think Kansas is good enough, frankly, to actually
Speaker 2: separate themselves from a really talented team like this, but
Speaker 2: I think they will win. I think they will win.
Speaker 2: Give me them eighty two seventy seven.
Speaker 3: I obviously think Kansas will win. Bill Selvas is very
Speaker 3: good in the first round of the NCAA tournament, except
Speaker 3: for the one time that I went and he lost
Speaker 3: to Bradley. Give me Kansas seventy one to sixty six
Speaker 3: in a game that's relatively close, has some good moments,
Speaker 3: and then reminds us that this team can barely close
Speaker 3: out games, but they somehow win.
Speaker 1: If they make the Sweet sixteen. Will you does that
Speaker 1: salvage the frustrating regular season?
Speaker 3: No, I don't think so, because they have no chance
Speaker 3: of waiting fun.
Speaker 2: It'd be good.
Speaker 3: They got work to do, all right, Well, I mean
Speaker 3: we will see their preseason number one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I kind of forgot that Part's that's fair as
Speaker 1: Landon would say. So our next show will come out
Speaker 1: Saturday morning. We're gonna try to get as much of
Speaker 1: the first round in before we push record. It'll come
Speaker 1: out early Saturday, and hopefully it'll be a game day
Speaker 1: for Kansas. If they win, they will play Saturday, also
Speaker 1: in Providence, presumably against Saint John's. That will be Show
Speaker 1: four ninety nine. Until then, this is Inside the Paint,
Speaker 1: part two of the double feature. Thanks for your patients,
