00:00 So we'll go to power conference teams, two mid-major teams. I think you should keep an eye on to maybe make some runs if you bet them now and then cash out. I don't think they're going to win national championships by any means. So let's start power conference high major level. The Big East is defined by its two teams at the top. You can't add more cat and just behind that I'd give an odd to the Creighton Blue Jays. Just a couple of points away last year in the elite eight for making the program's first.
00:29 Ever final for 45 to one for Creighton again, all of the makings of a team that can make a deep run in the tournament. And then how about the number four team in the preseason that is starting to look like the number four team in the preseason.
00:43 The Michigan State Spartans nine and seven DRS on January 11th, just one in four in Big Ten play the worst start in the nearly three decades in East Lansing under Tom Izzo in the Spartans first five conference games.
00:59 They have rallied since then they have won seven of their last nine games and they have covered in six of those seven wins. So I like Michigan State 50 to one Creighton 45 to one to maybe find some profitability in the NCAA tournament.
01:13 Now we go mid-major level Robbie Avila. He is going to be a guy that everybody knows you probably seen him already. He doesn't look like the most natural athlete with the rec specs for Indiana State, but a team that yes did lose earlier this week, but was ranked in the top 25.
01:29 Indiana State is a team that based on the metrics and the production of Avila and others, I think can make some noise in the NCAA tournament. Robbie Avila right now averaging 17 points per game and eight rebounds both top 10 in the Missouri Valley 100 to one on the school that Larry Bird made famous at Indiana State and keep an eye on McNeese as well 200 to one first year under Will Wade the bag man himself, who was a great basketball coach.
01:58 A quad one win for McNeese, which doesn't often happen at that level of college basketball here in the D1 men's college hoops level McNeese a quad one win to start off their season on the road at VCU.
02:12 Also a road win against Michigan. The resume is impressive McNeese one of those five teams alongside Purdue or McNeese and Indiana State rather two of seven teams in the country that have won at least 22 games, Indiana State and McNeese to mid-major teams to keep an eye on with some big plus money prices at this moment.
02:34 [Inaudible].
