you looking forward of North Carolina? Arizona

wasn't looking forward to love against his

3:38

former team because it's so I got

3:40

fair with move. awful terrible news of

night. Final Score: Clemson seventy Seven Arizona

3:57

Score: Alabama Eighty Nine North Carolina eighty.

4:00

Eleven that was game to. It sounds

4:02

like a college football playoff games Clinton

4:04

and Obama in law phase was on

4:06

a Saturday, but it's not. It's an

4:08

Elite A game in the two Thousand

4:10

and Twenty Four in Cw tournaments and

4:12

the winning school and winning coach will

4:14

be in the final four for the

4:16

first time the following weekend. Strong jaw

4:18

before we discuss each game Individual: Just

4:20

your thoughts on Alabama, Clemson meeting in

4:22

the Elite Eight as a for seat

4:24

in a sexy. Yeah, wilde

4:27

of. It's an exciting night of

4:29

of Sweet Sixteen acts in Alabama.

4:31

put on a show put on

4:33

a clinic on off it's a

4:35

great! Nelson was awesome. Clinton. They.

4:38

Did the day thing and this did not

4:40

feel at all like a fluke. The outcome:

4:42

You know you are Diggers own. I would

4:44

still pick to be Clinton and I and

4:47

I think probably a dog since eyes that

4:49

would happen. but. In. Our this

4:51

night Clinton's is kind of picked them

4:53

up and on the floor and Clinton's

4:55

as the way they played on defense

4:57

arizona. Unfortunately, The

5:00

way they shot on off it's ah,

5:02

now we have Clinton, Alabama, Ilili that

5:04

the Elite Eight sub. Pretty excited about

5:06

that. Let's just focus

5:08

on on the games in order that

5:10

we were. they were played. So let's

5:13

start with the Clemson Arizona game. Were

5:15

you surprised that Clemson, for lack of

5:17

a better phrase, points first? They kind

5:19

of came out to control and then.

5:22

Pretty. Much control the game from start

5:24

to finish. I don't want to say

5:26

it was never in doubt because it

5:28

obviously was, but this wasn't a situation

5:30

where the lower seeded team you knows

5:32

the hung around and then made some

5:34

shots and then got lucky. They, they

5:36

won the game for forty minutes basically. I

5:40

was surprised. Yeah, I mean. This.

5:42

Arizona team has. Has

5:45

the volatility to it. You know the

5:47

way they play off and state they

5:49

play a high enough to pull style

5:52

of this. Tonight in particular they saw

5:54

a ton of. Or three

5:56

point shots and enough fantasy. Five of

5:58

twenty eight from three and that was

6:00

to me the story. Clemson gonna ran

6:03

out. A zone decent in Arizona. Just

6:05

shocking. Shots settling, settling, settling. they just

6:07

had no answers. For

6:09

that. A bribe Brunel after

6:12

the game said he felt incredibly

6:14

fortunate, which us was about right

6:16

of it. Even more or less

6:18

was alluding to the fact that

6:20

Arizona. Had a

6:22

really, really tough night shooting the

6:24

basketball again. finished five of twenty

6:26

eight. From. Three point Range. They.

6:29

Play this game again Arizona. probably.

6:32

And I'm if they win this game, but

6:34

they certainly make more than five three point

6:36

shots just because this offense is so so

6:38

potent. But. On this

6:40

given night, Clemson played better. They punched first,

6:42

they held him off late. Arizona just did

6:44

not have the op. It's to kind of

6:46

keep up in that game. I'm.

6:49

Thousand Studio. obviously Tonight that's why

6:51

I'm in a tie. It's also

6:53

why we're starting weight, apologize and

6:56

at one point burn Stover. Who.

6:58

Was hosting tonight. Asks.

7:00

Me: In a wood.

7:03

So if you're in Arizona fan, I

7:05

can make sense of. Of

7:07

the Us and how to give you the season. And

7:10

that's always a difficult thing

7:12

to try to do, particularly

7:14

after his idioms so abruptly.

7:16

But it's difficult to do

7:18

because. This. Is a

7:21

sport where we play basically for five

7:23

months. And enlist. The end

7:25

is good. The first four months don't matter, and

7:27

if the end is good, it's almost like the

7:29

first four months don't matter. Like. It's

7:31

it's. it's. North Carolina

7:33

played in a National Championship game a few

7:35

years ago. You might remember the I'm North

7:37

Carolina did not have a good season. But.

7:40

They had a great tournament at

7:42

and then every year there's teams

7:45

that have. Great. Seasons but

7:47

don't have great tournaments for do. Last

7:49

season's a great example of that. And

7:51

then I think Arizona right now is

7:54

is that as well. Some

7:58

of it was when your best players. Would love.

8:00

You know your leave yourself a little

8:02

susceptible to this He I've of a

8:04

team from the field old, nine from

8:06

three. Don't put this all on him

8:08

because it's not all on him. but.

8:11

When capable of is your best player. He's

8:14

going to have some great nights and he's I

8:16

have some rough nights. That's the story of Caleb

8:18

Love and when he has the ruff night. Hearing.

8:21

Or stop. You. Know the it

8:23

is never a moment where he's going to

8:26

go. Amiss the first eight. My

8:29

not picked if one. You know he can keep.

8:31

Doing. What he does. and if it's not going

8:34

well and you're playing against the carpet in opponent

8:36

and as other things also not going Weldon, This

8:38

is the type of thing could happen. I don't

8:40

want to pretend that I predicted this because I

8:42

didn't. But. Earlier

8:45

today. When. Norlander and

8:47

I did the Outhouse Gospel podcast on Cbs

8:49

Sports Networks. I did say if you look

8:51

at Arizona. The. Before

8:53

this game had most eight times all season.

8:56

Now. I'd obviously and that will be the

8:58

final number forever. But heading into The Skin they've

9:00

lost a times. And. Seven of

9:02

the a loss is what a sub Thirty can bomb teams.

9:05

And Clemson was I think before tipoff

9:07

top choice I become pump certainly top

9:10

thirty. So my point was Arizona should

9:12

win this game. Arizona is the better

9:14

team. But. But.

9:18

They. Cost a lot of games to a lot

9:20

of teams just like claims that are even

9:23

worse. So like you know, be careful and

9:25

then. And then what happened happened

9:27

and so now the question becomes like

9:29

how you view Arizona season. It.

9:31

Was a great season. What about ending?

9:33

Same thing I said above Virginia a

9:35

few years ago about Purdue last season.

9:37

it was a great season. With.

9:40

A bad ending and I now know

9:42

that that's. Three. Years

9:44

for Tommy. The way to Arizona to conference championships

9:46

to conference tournament championships, incredible seeds and every tournament

9:48

and he loses to a lower see to team

9:51

every.has it made it to the elite eight yet?

9:53

I got it but I don't have. You Saw

9:55

his post game interview with our the Forced. I

9:57

loved it. I. Hope they pull it.

10:00

And use it going forward the same way

10:02

we constantly pull that day in her early

10:04

press conference moment. Or. He says you better get

10:06

us now because it's a. Jokes away.

10:08

As Tommy I don't remember the question exactly

10:10

and I don't want to put words in

10:12

her mouth, but. At the

10:15

end of it, Tommy said. Listen.

10:17

You. Know we didn't shoot the ball well and.

10:20

And. You know, When. You do that.

10:22

Sometimes this is a type of stuff that have

10:24

can happen but this is the part that I

10:26

zeroed in on. He said we will be. Back.

10:29

In this position. Many many

10:31

times. And. I.

10:34

Believe. That family and he

10:36

seemed to be suggesting. In

10:38

a humble but confident way as.

10:42

I'm not rattled by this. I

10:44

know other people are. I've even seen it

10:46

in the chat tonight since we started talking.

10:49

Tommy. Lloyd go for the regular season. Not

10:51

built for the answer but I don't buy

10:53

any other that I think it's all nonsense.

10:55

I think that nature of this events is

10:57

gonna. Always. Lend itself to.

11:00

Out over Kentucky, right? That kind of

11:02

stuff is forever happened In it, will forever

11:04

happen in. Sometimes those kind of things

11:06

happened to the same programs. Over.

11:09

And over again in a way.

11:11

Where. It. Starts to feel like.

11:14

Or maybe this guy really can't do these

11:16

things I will never forget until the story.

11:19

Forty. Five thousand times. But I will never

11:21

forget talking to Billy Donovan. After

11:24

he won his first national championship and

11:26

one of the things he said and

11:28

I guess I could have just look

11:30

this up I didn't remember it clearly

11:32

remembered. He. Said he realized before when

11:34

the national title I was eliminated from the first or

11:36

second round of the Answer to play tournament fi straight

11:38

years. Not get out into a

11:40

tournament. First. Or to caress. I could

11:43

make the second weekend five straight years he said google

11:45

my name. I'm paraphrasing here but he was like google

11:47

me it like it was out there. can Billie.of a

11:49

when the big one. Know. Billy

11:51

Donovan? Can't it out of the first weekend of the incident

11:53

with her. That's all they said. And.

11:57

Then they did and and they won the whole thing And

11:59

in they want. Whole thing again and now

12:01

he's gonna be a first ballot Hall

12:03

of Famers someday. Rights. To.

12:06

Point Billie made to me was. If

12:09

you keep building teams that are

12:11

theoretically good enough to. Advance

12:13

to go deep to go to the

12:16

final four to win a national. Just

12:18

if you keep building enough of those.

12:21

Eventually it'll happen for you. You're.

12:23

Gonna need some walk along the way you're going to

12:25

need some the bouncer way. Is sometimes it's

12:27

saga balance your way and that will be the years we

12:30

lose in the round a thirty two. But if you keep

12:32

building. Top Chef teams of

12:34

visually it will happen. And.

12:36

It did for billie. I. Believe it

12:38

will for Tommy. And.

12:42

There's. A long list of guys who couldn't do it

12:44

until they did. For. I remember going

12:46

already on Kansas City over and over again.

12:49

And I would ask me pre two thousand and eight

12:51

do you think bills of can really when the bigger

12:53

I. Like you know

12:55

with this guy going to break through, Can you do it? Skyler,

12:59

Or. It's every item was a every geico that

13:01

but truth but there is a long list

13:03

of guys. Bill. Self J.

13:05

Right, John Calipari. Hey.

13:09

Are we sure this guy can do it? Rains.

13:11

On a Yet. When. They say what they are

13:13

doing. And. It's what they were all doing.

13:16

Billie before his title, John before his title.

13:18

Bill Self before title Calming Lloyd Right now

13:20

you know what? They were all due on

13:22

building seems. annually. Rather

13:25

consistently. That. Are theoretically

13:27

good enough. To. Go to final

13:29

fours when national championships and eventually because those

13:31

men kept doing it over and over again.

13:34

He. Broke through. it happened for every one of

13:36

of and I'd I'd just keep this it'll happen

13:39

for time and would some decks to if Tommy

13:41

Lloyd coaches at Arizona for fifteen years. I.

13:44

Do believe that he won a national championship. He's

13:46

built three teams already. He. The Hiccups:

13:48

Three years. You've got three teams already that are good enough to do.

13:51

It. Is just had nap

13:53

and it will serve. You want to get your little

13:55

jokes and now. but Tommy Boy take do they have

13:57

kids. Get him. And now because eventually he'd gone boss

13:59

right? Do that. I promise you. I

14:01

don't know. Dinner early? Still. Coaching. At

14:03

you can't so. It's

14:05

kind of he's never going to end for that view that as.

14:09

Well that that can be. The other problem is that

14:11

if you can never lose of again and then nobody

14:13

ever gets to win anything ever again other than Day

14:15

and Hurley Edu God but you know on the flip

14:17

side of this. I'm. Result.

14:21

Is. You know, what

14:23

a bribe for now who's lived on the hot

14:25

seat seat for. It feels like forever

14:28

and so there's a guy who people

14:30

have been wondering like to even keep

14:32

his job. Like. Every year I do

14:34

a hot see lives and every year I'm like

14:36

a bribe renounce good see again, get bullied your

14:38

back here, but it's and. This

14:41

Oh cool. It at least temporarily. It's a

14:43

just. Take. That set it aside. It

14:46

just can be happier. For a guy

14:48

like I can a man, it's that

14:50

easy living with. Job.

14:52

Speculation. All. But times

14:54

have you ever I don't get to parcel

14:56

someone even as that's but like if you're

14:58

ever in the last year of a contract

15:00

you know you like I you know where

15:02

this you know if you ever hits people

15:05

were it's this guy has been linked more

15:07

or less in that place for a year

15:09

after year after year like a I'm here

15:11

right now and I really like it. I.

15:13

Don't have that. Will be back next year. Yeah. Let

15:15

me go code from a job at the

15:17

Hard Way To coach. It's a hard with

15:20

us to to live and he has found

15:22

a way to be comfortable in that

15:24

space and now it's just it's just happening

15:26

for him. You. Know is is it

15:28

was or any point in the season where Clemson

15:31

look like. One of the

15:33

last eight teams that be plan. Know.

15:35

Of course not, of course, but but but that's

15:37

where the rat and what I love most about

15:39

this Final Four in Los Angeles. You know you

15:41

to sort of find. I mean this Elite Eight

15:44

match up in Los Angeles. you eat, you'll you'll

15:46

look for something in a very better. and you

15:48

did You try to find somebody? asks. What

15:50

I want to what I wanted was killed

15:52

Love against North Carolina. I thought that would

15:54

be awesome but but what will I now

15:56

watch? I watch clips in Alabama and it'll

15:58

be equally awesome. Because.

16:01

Either a Clemson program that most

16:04

people have never really taken seriously

16:06

or in Alabama program that has

16:08

been really good. Keep. In mind

16:10

they were the number one overall see me

16:13

as way tournament like below recently than this

16:15

team to look nothing like ever being capable

16:17

of that schools are Old coach a month

16:19

ago said we don't guard anybody because you

16:21

know. And now here they are

16:23

One of those programs is going to be

16:25

Final Four. And that's awesome. Say.

16:28

That suggests a great story for

16:31

glimpse and obviously Bread Brunel Closing

16:33

Seconds: Elite Eight Appearances Program History:

16:35

The their first since Nineteen eighty

16:37

Eighty. Just barely. But yes of

16:41

get. To. Second, yeah. Regardless, through our

16:43

story, I was ever going to be three

16:46

years old. and nineteen Eighty of that. So

16:48

yeah, so we got. we got a few

16:50

of those now. like Purdue had been a

16:52

final four since Nineteen Eighty Ninety Nine. He's

16:54

a big year and this a sweet sixteen

16:56

Elite Eight, so it's just a fab is

16:59

not what we expected to to to see

17:01

ah you know happen in that Arizona Clemson

17:03

game. But. You know, for

17:05

Clemson you'd you can be happy for I'm in

17:07

L on the other side, Alabama. The spend a

17:10

few minutes on this When they beat North Carolina

17:12

eighty nine and Seven. The Tar Heels were actually

17:14

up double digits in this point in this game

17:16

at one point and then. Alabama, Just

17:18

you know, stay true to what they do.

17:21

And we talked about this pregame.

17:24

On. March Madness Three

17:26

Sixty Sega Sports Network early two nights and

17:28

one of the point said. main. Ones

17:31

that. If. On a

17:33

one seed. Alabama, it.

17:36

Isn't like the best? You

17:39

know, Four Five see that we could have be

17:41

radically played in the Sweet sixteen, and maybe they

17:43

are, but you'll get the point to make it's

17:45

but I didn't think they were the most dangerous

17:47

in the sense that you know exactly what they're

17:49

going to do and if they do it well,

17:51

there's not much you can do about it, like

17:54

they're gonna like the actual thing that I said.

17:56

On. Television was they're gonna try to take thirty

17:58

three and if they. Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, fourteen

18:01

of on. You're gonna have problems and

18:03

it really doesn't matter how well you're

18:05

playing. And then the game started And

18:07

what are they do? They.

18:09

Didn't quite get it dirty, but they got close to it

18:11

and they shot above forty two percent from three. So

18:14

when they're doing that, It

18:16

home and what is it? doesn't matter. How

18:19

well you're playing. But. Sometimes.

18:23

You get a match up like this. A

18:25

sweet sixteen match up including a one seats

18:27

and one see. Can say. I

18:29

think honestly. If we play well,

18:31

we'll be fine. If we play

18:33

will we be sucks but when you're playing

18:35

Alabama there's always a qualifier will be it.

18:37

If we play well we'll be fine. As

18:40

long as they don't get wild from three

18:43

to then, we might not be It's the

18:45

proper carol and this one of course was

18:47

that or even when Alabama got while from

18:49

three Carolina you know they they were playing

18:52

well. And. A lot of that was

18:54

Rg Davis and did you see this? Rj

18:56

Davis entailed love tonight in the same

18:58

building. Combined to

19:00

go oh of a team from three. Failed

19:03

Love when I'm from three Rg

19:06

Davis old nine three these former

19:08

teammates backcourt mates on a big

19:10

stage in advance of. Of.

19:13

A match that was supposed to.

19:16

Involve them, they both throw

19:18

up Stinkers. A

19:20

crypto.com arena and become I saw

19:22

this: I'm Jared Burson. He

19:24

invented he has been stats and info he did.

19:28

He. Said that Rg Davis and Tailed Lover the

19:30

first two players in in suitably tournament history.

19:33

For ever. Both.

19:35

Go at least oh of nine from three

19:37

point range on the same day and instantly

19:40

tournament. So it's not. It's not just in

19:42

the same building or on or or. Or

19:45

former teammates that did this like no two

19:47

players in the history than simply tournament have

19:49

ever played on the same day. And

19:52

both when at least old nine from three. So.

19:54

Are today the title killed love.

19:56

They've had some incredible moments together

19:59

apart. this. Then, but they'll want to

20:01

forget this night for as long as I live.

20:04

There are today was sixteen points see

20:06

good but for of twenty shooting that's

20:08

not great. Amount of baker

20:10

was pretty good this game and

20:12

ninety points. Mr. Done the second

20:15

half. That felt like it was

20:17

pretty crucial per Brian eyes. Sat

20:19

here on Rg Davis. This was

20:21

the first game all season Rj

20:23

Davis. Did. Not make

20:25

a single three pointer. Carolina.

20:28

Ends up losing this game by two

20:30

points. Just a brutal beat Alabama played

20:32

out of their mind. great. Nelson was

20:34

fantastic. Twenty four boys. He had a

20:36

huge second half. Nineteen. Points

20:38

in the half finished with by blocks. including.

20:41

The clincher cast swatting airs and in

20:43

grooms prayer at the in there. So

20:46

the great when for Alabama or we

20:48

always thought that this was possible for

20:50

Alabama just because they're office is so

20:53

lethal. Of. And they get hot

20:55

tonight and they are advancing. That's a really

20:57

impressive when by the notes in this Crimson

20:59

by at least thirteen points. Com.

24:11

O s que the same question I was as tonight on

24:13

tv because it is starting to get a thing that I

24:15

think he i think most people are are saying yes. But.

24:19

It always felt like such an absurd question to

24:21

ask, and yet it's just not an absurd question

24:23

anymore. So the question simple is it's you contain

24:25

better than last season's You can't in what do

24:27

you think. Yes, Yes,

24:30

This is. This. Team is better

24:32

than last year's national championship. Team.

24:35

I. Think there's a case to be

24:37

made. This is the best Yukon

24:39

team in program history and this

24:41

is a very proud program. They've

24:43

got multiple national championships. of last

24:45

year's Yukon team was I mean

24:47

just. The crust

24:49

everybody are they were. They were dominant,

24:51

had a a little bit of a

24:54

low and the regular season the dominant.

24:56

During the Subway tournaments I ended up

24:58

winning thirty one games. This team. Defensively,

25:01

When they lock in. They. Are

25:04

completely unstoppable offensively. I mean they have

25:06

so many different guys they they could

25:08

throw at you trust and Newton was

25:10

great tonight. Stuff on Castle I'll just

25:12

have a five star freshmen his is

25:15

given up and you'll have at a

25:17

big game A team Spencer who's like

25:19

the Harley's clone has a big games

25:21

and I and honestly and really didn't

25:23

have is a plus stuff and they

25:26

didn't really did it end up winning

25:28

by thirty points of insists. The weapons

25:30

that the Yukon team has is hilarious

25:32

and unfair and. I think there is

25:34

a very strong case that this Yukon

25:37

team. Better. Last year's you can

25:39

do better than any Yukon teams. In. Program

25:41

History. And I

25:43

mean. All. The data suggests

25:45

that from here your eyeballs can tell

25:47

you whatever you want, your eyeballs capella

25:49

but all the data supports that's and

25:51

like bring stove, put that question to

25:54

me. It is sort of

25:56

playing off of we were carrying the city was

25:58

a press conference lies so we were coming. Right

26:00

off of a Brian.your press conference and

26:02

somebody has Brian. Is. You

26:04

com better this season then they were last season

26:06

cause obviously sending us he played you done and

26:09

got beat by Yukon in the national title game

26:11

of last season's insulate tournaments and brought was good

26:13

he's or smile he said well they're either better.

26:16

Or worse because he felt static. Probably

26:18

both things are true. I think you

26:20

can probably better than Ago states, probably

26:23

a little worse. and that's how you

26:25

get a you know a blog, the

26:27

a thirty point victory in the in

26:29

the Sweet sixteen and. You.

26:32

Know when when stover ask me that? I

26:35

that the way I explained it was if you to acid

26:37

in November ah to roll my eyes at you. And

26:40

in December probably same thing. Although.

26:42

At a been like you know are

26:44

considered it January I still think my

26:46

answer's no. February.

26:49

Maybe I'm still like, let's slow

26:51

down, you know? I'm still,

26:54

I'm still on for do. But. I

26:57

mean, I've reached a point where I think

26:59

the right answer is yes, they're better, they

27:01

just are. And like there's some very basic

27:03

ways to to highlight this. You know they

27:05

didn't win the Big East last season. They.

27:08

Want to be. He's a season by four games. Isn't.

27:11

They didn't win the Big East tournament

27:13

last season. They won the Big East Tournament

27:15

this season. no problem. I'm. The. Got

27:17

a better record at this point the

27:19

season than they had at this point

27:21

last season. The computer numbers are better

27:24

across the board. They. Just are. So

27:27

it sounds absurd. To

27:30

wonder. If a team

27:32

that won a national to get, think about what

27:34

we're thinking about here. A

27:36

team that won the national championships by

27:39

blowing out everybody in the unsuitable A

27:41

tournaments. And had. To.

27:44

M B A Draft picks including one

27:46

lottery pick and that doesn't even cool

27:48

include the guy who was the most

27:50

outstanding player of the final four. They.

27:53

Lost all three of those guys. Existing.

27:55

Better itself like an absurd think. They even like

27:57

what. Of course that. Except

28:00

somehow some way. Came. Spencer's

28:02

part of it the development of Trista

28:04

Newton, Newton's part of it's as different

28:06

hospitals part of it. As

28:08

somehow some way it it appears

28:10

that day and Ursula hit after

28:13

winning a national championship in absurd

28:15

version. Has. Built and developed.

28:18

A team that's even better than

28:20

that team. It doesn't guarantee anything,

28:22

but I am well aware of

28:24

why Yukon is. Is. Becoming

28:26

a a pretty sizeable favorite to

28:28

win this thing. It's because. Consistently

28:31

now for a while. I'm.

28:34

Daves. They. Just blown

28:36

out everybody and. They

28:39

never loss of a new record our year. Never

28:41

lost at home or year. They.

28:44

That. The paper for reason. I get it. I'm still

28:46

going to pick for do this because I mean I

28:48

go sick and screaming. but I yeah. I

28:50

understand if you're not understand if you're picking

28:52

you can instead they look the part. To

28:56

a boil, Your boiler makers. Don't. Have

28:58

to have sixty percent Boilermaker. I

29:00

was forty percent aggies. but now

29:02

I. I gotta think about that. You know

29:04

we've had some changes up there. And Logan, you know. That.

29:07

Strip. The other stuff. That.

29:09

Stuff of could be interesting massive for do

29:11

you got that happens. The. Ride with Iran

29:13

with Purdue all the way. For.

29:15

Me I have to. Look the I'm in the

29:17

only way we could get the Purdue you can and will

29:19

be in the title game. Score! And if I if I'm

29:22

that if I'm the idiot who's been screaming for do all

29:24

your life that the a terrible time to back off of

29:26

the right. I. Didn't point

29:28

out about going to back off of it. Tonight

29:30

will be the night before It's you could say

29:32

that your state supporters. One. That no doubt

29:34

that what they here's the like a revised like look at

29:37

what you can just sending us day and I am too

29:39

I just did for five minutes. Utah

29:42

State. Now that's true. Yeah right. So like

29:44

you know you don't say was your belt

29:46

west it. Yet. So like. We.

29:49

Get caught up in a moment and

29:51

I know like you can't have been

29:53

doing this to good teams more regularly

29:55

than anybody else or like we just

29:57

watch Produce beat the actual champion from

29:59

that same. Lead. You. Know

30:01

by a billion so. If we're

30:03

headed that way, that's where I want to get. You

30:05

know, and I mean I'll take a championship game.

30:08

Outcomes: But. Produce you com would obviously be

30:10

on. Yeah. I

30:12

think Google has been added incentive

30:14

in it's own tier for the

30:16

last couple weeks, but Purdue. Less.

30:19

We not forget has been a clear top

30:21

two team in college. Best for this is

30:23

maybe top three. You wanna throw his son

30:26

and nephew gone Houston and Purdue the way

30:28

produce play right now. Killed

30:30

the Aggies. They're playing on a

30:32

different level right now. He is

30:34

dominating regards to play with a

30:36

lot of confidence. Yeah, I feel

30:38

like we're on a collision. A

30:40

collision course for you can't purdue?

30:44

Receive. That that's the air at that? My

30:46

history with the and stuff like that isn't

30:48

that the do that guarantees. Something bad

30:50

gonna happen tomorrow any time I say

30:52

like ways that there's a cliff adding

30:54

not a retreated it at some point

30:56

where nor lander was i i think

30:59

given me. Stuff. For.

31:01

Or. For. Being so heavy on like

31:04

one seeds and to seeds and the get you

31:06

know he's always is. It's how could you picked

31:08

three, number one seed and a two seat or

31:10

whatever to get to this final four? You know

31:12

it never goes that way It on. my God.

31:14

Oh now I just like picking the better teams.

31:16

I don't know, I just watch. for four months

31:18

ago I'd and pretty sure the seems better than

31:20

this team and then I'll I'll pick it and

31:22

then you know and then it doesn't And then

31:24

and then Jekyll happens when he omitted a a

31:26

rights so he's given me. He's given me like

31:28

the business and then at some point or even

31:30

really remember the context. But as simple as it's

31:32

what. Do you mean consent? A specific

31:34

specific felt like. A

31:38

like M M. Now here we are.

31:41

That's that's the nature of the start

31:43

of it. Were Norlander is right. Is

31:45

that something like this always happens? What

31:48

is difficult is trying to identify where

31:50

read this. Something like this is going

31:53

to happen. Because it is almost

31:55

never make sense, You almost never saw it

31:57

common. I'm Eclipse. It was two

31:59

games. Five hundred and the Ac seats. And

32:01

I know the A Cz was tougher than

32:04

everybody thinks. I know. I got it. I

32:06

got it. I know. I

32:09

know be a cc was tougher than anybody

32:11

thinks. Although this is what's

32:13

the new Macys, the alrighty of get eliminated.

32:16

The. Lady know, by not by a not as

32:18

easy job Yes, But what? Whatever, we want to

32:20

talk about that right now? I'm just sayin' Film.

32:24

Clips. It was just a whatever team in

32:26

the in, in the A, C C, and

32:28

in the. And Albert Yang in

32:30

the Elite Eight. And you're all of

32:33

the stuff as. You. It's

32:35

you can you can safely assume going

32:37

into any tournament. That. Something

32:39

like this. Is going to

32:42

happen. But you

32:44

don't know where it's coming, I promise you. even Bread

32:46

Brunel didn't know where this was coming from. Notice.

32:50

The you begin his own bracket. a bit clumsy. the

32:52

others were. For. Me that hope he

32:54

did. But but as I will say like there

32:57

are there are there are times when we're doing

32:59

the candy coaches thing where collects who's be the

33:01

best in the country and most coaches don't vote

33:03

for themselves because would you know where as texting

33:05

and been major coach or whatever but like there

33:07

are coaches sometimes who liked absolutely safe out we

33:10

will we will be the best him in the

33:12

country I have multiple coaches this year who pick

33:14

themselves to be a dusty with the country and

33:16

of one of the ones that I might you

33:18

know turn it into something but are you know.

33:21

I hope Reber now picked his clemson to

33:23

go to be Elite Eight, but I'm not

33:25

certain he was a he was counting on

33:27

it. Either way, I'm happy forms. Ah, let's

33:29

go back to the. East.

33:32

Because. After

33:34

we got. Yukon.

33:37

Running through San Diego State and advancing

33:39

to the Elite A for the second

33:42

straight year, I. Think probably the

33:44

best game of than I would you call

33:46

it was game tonight. Final Score: Illinois seventy

33:48

two Iowa State Sixty nine I'll be honest,

33:50

I'm on Tv the entire time this game

33:52

is going. Were. Watching it. But

33:54

we're also talking on live Tv and there's

33:56

only so much you can do. So I

33:59

know Terrence Shannon. That terrific again. ten

34:01

of nineteen for the field. Twenty nine

34:03

points. I get the sense that. It.

34:06

Was a phone back and forth of say or

34:08

were maybe one team didn't lose it as much

34:10

as one team without one. It may be the

34:12

team with the best player. Maybe that's what it

34:14

comes down to is just one team at tear

34:16

sandy of team didn't and and in your he

34:18

wound got twenty nine and so now you're in

34:20

the elite eight the other team season's over. You

34:23

tell me what did you make of Illinois three

34:25

point win over I was state. He. I

34:27

would rank it's second best game on

34:29

the night at eight. Alabama, Carolina was

34:31

was clearly in it's own sea. Urban

34:33

Illinois, Iowa State was very very good.

34:36

I was state I sleep for a

34:38

old by thirteen. Of it

34:40

looked at one point like Illinois gonna end

34:42

up running away from this or but san

34:44

and got into fafsa want to suck ass

34:47

here after. It's a huge first half. Of

34:49

that forty points in the first half ends up

34:51

with twenty nine point. Still a solid game. Makes

34:54

a big plays late but there was a stretch

34:56

their where he sat on the bench and foul

34:58

trouble in our state made a little bit of

35:00

Iran. I'll sit

35:02

for this thirty or forty seven

35:04

on layups percent broadcast on. Just

35:08

absolutely brutal. Are just a ton of

35:10

buddies that it felt like Mattis psychoses

35:12

had even hit maybe half the ones

35:14

that they missed. Ah, we're talking about

35:17

a totally different game, but. But.

35:19

We're not, Illinois is going on and they're

35:21

going to be playing Yukon and the Elite

35:23

Eight. Their seen a display of his minor

35:25

in out to my points in this one

35:27

obviously at thirty points against Duquesne and forty

35:30

six voice against more. Had a as you

35:32

kind of medicines are just a minute ago.

35:34

It's kind of came down to. Illinois.

35:37

Had the best player on the floor and I was it

35:39

did not. There's little

35:41

bit more to it than that,

35:43

but Santa was was was just

35:45

firing on all cylinders as he

35:47

has been threats to tire postseason

35:50

really said he has the type

35:52

of guard and obviously these. You.

35:55

Know his season has been overshadowed

35:58

by a legal issue here. The

36:00

was. Removed. From

36:02

competition briefly. Some.

36:06

He. Has. Not

36:08

gotten the attention. In

36:10

a positive way, this season dead

36:12

and Rj Davis got it. North Carolina

36:14

that a Jamal shared his gun at

36:16

Houston. That interest in Newton is Janet,

36:19

You kind of that. A Mark

36:21

Sears his gun at Alabama. Frankly, But

36:24

he's that same level guard. Seventies.

36:26

That same level guy. Who. Can

36:28

go out and take over games and

36:31

in L A if you're trying to

36:33

live, put it's lists together of perimeter

36:35

oriented players who can take over games.

36:37

and maybe Terry you. To. A

36:39

final four or to even a

36:41

national championship. I'm paired. Santa Jr.

36:43

is he's on that list. as a

36:46

basketball player, the other stuff is is

36:48

complicated. And. It.

36:50

Makes the entire story complicated.

36:53

And it will become a bigger story the

36:55

further Illinois goes. Like. At some point

36:58

I know Bretton woods been ask questions but. Those

37:00

questions are going to stop. And. They certainly

37:03

will stop at the final four. If they get their, they'll

37:05

just. They'll. Ramp up and they'll

37:07

probably get a more. a little more intense,

37:09

a little more direct. But

37:12

if we're strictly talk and basketball hear, This

37:14

young man is one of the best while

37:16

players in the country. His looked like it

37:18

consistently and he's not the only reason illinois

37:20

in this position. but he deftly the biggest.

37:23

Yeah. Absolutely. And Illinois every boy literature

37:25

junior tonight. Marcus to masks yet that

37:28

little bit struggled. Seven points in this

37:30

game. But your Damascus, a guy who

37:32

can go for twenty points on any

37:35

given night com in Arkansas businesses are

37:37

twelve points. Has

37:39

three assists. Looks the part. I mean there's a

37:41

There's a lot of weapons on this Illinois team

37:43

that you know I can be taking them to

37:46

beat. You can't But if they end up giving

37:48

you gone a little bit of a puss would

37:50

be totally surprising. The seem as red red hot

37:52

right now. I'm. So.

37:55
