00:00The last four teams in, in order, Texas, Xavier, San Diego State, and the last team into the
00:07field of 68, the North Carolina Tar Heels, DRS.
00:11Of those four teams, who surprised you the most getting into the big game?
00:15Look, I guess it would be North Carolina, but let's understand this.
00:18This is what gets me pretty upset during college football season overall, is we have television
00:22shows and we have matrixes that we use in bracketology, when the people in the committee
00:27just go, eh, I don't really know which one we're going to wait.
00:29We're going to pick our own game plan and then come out with it.
00:31Because let me tell you something, if there was no bracketology, there were no television
00:34shows and North Carolina made an impact, they had a tough schedule.
00:37You know what?
00:38They probably deserved it.
00:39But all we heard was how important quad one victories were all throughout the season.
00:43Only on the final day of the season, nobody cared about quad one victories.
00:47That's the issue I have.
00:48It's communication that puts it out there.
00:50Understand this, if you do have a television show, Ben, and you're coming out saying, well,
00:53we have quad one as our matrix, but I know the committee behind us, they don't really
00:57care about that.
00:58They're just going to say, well, we'll move off of that line because all you're led to
00:59believe is if you want to play your way into a tournament, it's not about just playing
01:03teams.
01:04You don't get North Carolina to say that is a moral victory at this point.
01:08And the fact that they lost twice to Duke and the second time to Duke in the regular
01:10season without their best player in foul trouble and he played the second half, they didn't
01:15play well.
01:16It's like, okay, they're probably done.
01:17But then we got bonus points for an easy win to start the ACC.
01:20Then you play Duke without their best player.
01:22And this wasn't a back and forth game.
01:24Duke up 20 plus points for the majority of that game, melted down, but still on their
01:27winning.
01:28And we're like, oh man, boy, North Carolina really gave it their best.
01:31That shows they should be in the tournament.
01:32I don't buy into that at all, Ben.
