00:00All right, let's talk about the final four.
00:02Game one, Florida and Auburn tomorrow night
00:05in San Antonio at the Alamo Dome.
00:07And who do you like there?
00:09Well, this is like the Spider-Man meme
00:11where they're both pointing at each other, right?
00:12This is as tough as it gets once again,
00:14but I'm gonna go and it's,
00:17I don't know if I'm going against myself here, Scott,
00:19cause I was pro-Florida coming into this thing
00:21like a lot of other people were,
00:23but I think Auburn are gonna get them.
00:26But Florida, just a little bit shakier to me
00:30than Auburn.
00:31Florida have dodged a couple of bullets.
00:33I think Auburn are gonna beat them in the paint, Scott.
00:35I think Auburn's physicality will play through.
00:38I think Florida are a better shooting team than Auburn.
00:41So it's gonna be a battle, bro.
00:43Like I think it's gonna be like a three or four point game,
00:45but I'm gonna take the points.
00:47Since we're getting points here,
00:49I'm gonna take the Auburn Tigers in this game, Scott.
00:52Although I think either one of them are gonna lose
00:54on Monday night after, personally,
00:57but I'm gonna take the Auburn Tigers
00:58plus the two and a half.
01:00I think the glass and the defense will be the difference.
01:03All right, in the night cap at around 10 to nine on CBS,
01:07it's Duke and Houston in a great one.
01:10Similar situation.
01:11I actually picked Houston to win the tournament.
01:14Like that was my team coming in.
01:15I wanted to be cute and I don't know if it was really
01:18a long shot, not really, but you know,
01:20I got Houston in my brackets.
01:21I got a Houston future, but with that being stated, Scott,
01:24I'm sticking to my guns here.
01:25Duke, I don't think Duke are gonna be beat, bro.
01:28And I know a lot of people this week I talked to
01:30who are like talking themselves in and making reasons why
01:33about Houston's defense and, you know,
01:35they held them to 54 points last year.
01:37Cooper Flagg wasn't on the team last year.
01:39It was a little bit different.
01:41It's like talking about, oh, we beat the Edmonton Oilers
01:43before Wayne Gretzky was on the team in a WH, you know,
01:46the WHA, good for you.
01:48Like, it's a little different.
01:49When he was playing in Indy for the races.
01:50Yeah, yeah, yeah, when we beat the Indianapolis Racers
01:53before Gretzky was, like, good for you.
01:55He wasn't there, right?
01:57They're a completely different team now.
01:59And listen, I think this,
02:00I like this Houston team is great for one thing.
02:02Listen, you know ball.
02:04The most impressive thing about the Houston Cougars, Scott,
02:06is defensively, how fast they get back on defense.
02:11It's like a blur, you know what I mean?
02:13Like, you know, how many times did Tennessee get a rebound
02:15and Tennessee could push it.
02:16Tennessee are fast dudes.
02:18And Tennessee would get a rebound, try to push the pace.
02:20And it's like Star Trek where they beam themselves up
02:24back to the other side of the court.
02:26You don't even see them run back.
02:28It's just sort of like, oh, look, we got a fast break.
02:30It's like, no, we don't.
02:31There's five, look, there's five white jerseys
02:33in front of us again.
02:34Where'd they come from?
02:36Like, man, they get back fast on defense.
02:38So listen, if you're Duke, the only way to beat Houston,
02:41take them out of their defense.
02:42Don't let them set up.
02:43They set up, they're gonna stop you.
02:45You've gotta get them running.
02:47Don't let them set up their half-court defense.
02:49You know that the Duke Blue Devils are aware of this.
02:52I think they're gonna get after it.
02:53I think the total's a little light, Scott,
02:54at 136, 136 and a half.
02:57This is not gonna be a 54-51 game like last year, guys.
03:01These two teams played last year.
03:03I think it was the Sweet 16.
03:05And Duke beat them by three, 54-51.
03:08It was an ugly game.
03:10I'm thinking more of this, you know,
03:11the winner's gonna get into the 70s here.
03:13Like, I think Duke win like 76-39 or something like that,
03:19in my opinion, Scott.
03:20I think Duke are gonna win.
03:21I think Duke are gonna cover.
