00:00 Now we go from the east to the south where the two, the number two, one seed, the second number one seed in terms of the overall seed list resides. That would be Houston. They're the top team in the south region. Houston will open as a 23 and a half point favorite against the champions of the Socon. That would be Longwood. After the Cougs got demolished in the Big 12 title game. Good luck to Longwood. It's going to be a very tough night against Houston. We'll see you next time.
00:25 Wisconsin and James Madison. That will be a 12 five spot DRS. Many people look at in terms of a key matchup there. Duke has had a weird last three weeks. They're in the 413 game against Vermont. The Blue Devils in 11 and a half point favorite and NC State after winning five straight in DC in the ACC tournament to steal one of those bids and earn an automatic birth takes on Texas Tech in the round of 64 matchup. That's the crazy thing about this.
00:53 That's the crazy one for me. That game where NC State wins five games in five nights against UNC which burned a plus 164 me ticket on them to win the actual conference and also had another money line parlay on that day which I thought the easiest anchor that leg was going to be obviously North Carolina going up against NC State and that didn't happen.
01:10 But let's look at the top here. You know me. I've been saying it all along and maybe I'll be wrong in the tournament. I'm not high on the ACC here. So if I'm looking at NC State, I'm going to give the tip of the cap here to Texas Tech but also Duke and Vermont. Duke's going to win that game. But JMU a legitimate chance for me here. Again, just filling out that early bracket and getting a feel for it. JMU over Wisconsin. JMU over Duke. I would not be surprised at that point.
01:31 Now granted, then they're going to come up against Houston but back to your point on the number one overseas Houston who I think has a great chance to win a national championship but let's just say at least get to the final four and participate and have a legitimate shot at it. Do you like the fact that they actually lost that game and lost it so big? I kind of do here because some people will say to themselves, man, you know what? That's a bad sign of what's to come.
01:48 You're going to play teams with upper competition. They don't have it here. Sometimes the coach sits back and goes, you know what? We're still on the one line, but now I can sit in my room and I'm going to meet them on the court on Monday and let them have it and they'll listen to me.
01:59 He goes, hey, guys, you want your season to end? Do what you did on Sunday here or on Saturday here. It's going to end quickly. I like it.
