00:00But here is that last region with St. John's in it.
00:02That is the West, Florida, Norfolk State, Yukon, Oklahoma.
00:07So the two-time champs there against the Sooners
00:09in the first round.
00:10Memphis and Colorado State.
00:12Maryland will be taking on Grand Canyon.
00:15The Antelopes, my team, Missouri and Drake,
00:18Texas Tech, UNC Wilmington, Kansas, Arkansas.
00:20And there it is, St. John's and Omaha
00:23out of the summit there at the bottom.
00:25Look, here's one for you.
00:26Colorado State is a nightmare for Memphis.
00:30They're gonna be a problem for Memphis all day long.
00:33Believe me, you.
00:34And Colorado State's favored.
00:36And they're the 12th.
00:37They're favored by two and a half
00:38because they're better than Memphis.
00:40And then, you know, I gotta tell you,
00:43Maryland should beat Grand Canyon,
00:45but it might end up being a great game.
00:47The Lions 10 and a half, that's way too much as well.
00:50And Wilmington will cover 15 and a half against Texas Tech.
00:55They're legit.
00:57I mean, they can play, they can score, they can defend.
01:00And Texas Tech is great.
01:01If Texas Tech is so great,
01:04how come they didn't win their conference round?
01:06I mean, weren't they just lock, stock and barrel
01:09gonna win it all?
01:09No, that didn't happen either.
01:12St. John's is not losing to Omaha, okay?
01:15And then St. John's will beat Arkansas.
01:18And I think Kansas will probably beat Arkansas.
01:21Look, I was just gonna say that.
01:24I don't think that Arkansas is gonna beat Kansas.
01:26I know Kansas has had their problems this year.
01:29St. John's is gonna beat Kansas then.
01:31They won't even score against St. John's.
01:33I agree with that.
01:34But just looking at this Kansas-Arkansas game,
01:37I think Kansas is a much better team than Arkansas.
01:41I don't think Arkansas is gonna be able to deal
01:43with Kansas in that game.
01:45So I know everybody-
01:46I'll be honest, Mike.
01:47I'll be honest.
01:48There's only, you know,
01:49Florida is the only team that can beat St. John's.
01:55I look, I think that if we can get Florida
01:57versus St. John's in that regional final,
01:59I think that'd be a hell of a game.
02:00Hell of a game.
02:01The thing is, it's never gonna be all ones and twos
02:04in these regional finals.
02:05It's just never gonna be.
02:07It's just never gonna be.
02:07And I have a few reasons that I think can get silly.
02:11You know, I love that Grand Canyon team.
02:13I had them.
02:14I went crazy with them last year-
02:15Their girls' team's better than the boys' team.
02:18They were like 30, 31 and two this year
02:20or something like that.
02:21Their girls' team's unbelievable.
02:23But this team, with Drew as the coach,
02:25that's a bit-
02:26You've said it.
02:27Big number against Maryland.
02:28I'm gonna be on it.
02:30Maybe even a little bit more.
02:31Maybe we can get ourselves an upset in there as well.
02:34As far as the favorite for that,
02:35obviously Florida is the favorite.
02:39And then you have St. John's and Texas Tech.
02:41Texas Tech's actually higher on the board than St. John's.
02:44There's the disrespect for you right there.
02:46Texas Tech, they got higher on the board than the Johnnies
02:50to start things off here this week.
02:52I think Wilmington, they didn't-
02:54Something to the effect of,
02:56and I'll find out for tomorrow for sure,
02:57but something to the effect of,
02:59they've never lost once by double digits.
03:03Or no one's covered against them by double digits.
03:06They're laying 15 and a hundred against them.
03:08I mean, they're 15 and a hundred.
03:10Jump on it now, today, tonight.
03:13Wilmington is going to grind that game down.
03:16These CAA teams get into the tournament
03:18and they grind these big teams.
03:20That's a lot of points.
03:22Texas Tech will win, but that's gonna be,
03:25you know, I think 15 and a half-
03:26There's another guy they want to hire,
03:28Indiana, the Texas Tech coach
03:30who couldn't win his own conference
03:31or the conference tournament.
03:33They'd probably lose this game too.
