00:00All right, so let's go to Saturday's best games.

00:04You got Tennessee at A&M.

00:06I like A&M there.

00:08Oregon's at Wisconsin.

00:09I love Wisconsin at the Cole in Madtown.

00:12I think their guards are fantastic.

00:14I think they're a dangerous elite eight team.

00:18Iowa State's at Houston.

00:19I like Houston with their defense at home.

00:22Ole Miss is at Vandy.

00:24I could see Vandy with the number

00:26covering against Ole Miss.

00:29I gotta tell you, Vanderbilt really let me down

00:30against Kentucky, but that doesn't mean

00:32I'm gonna come back to them.

00:33I agree, I think it's, I'll take Vanderbilt,

00:35the Commodores and the points, Scotty.

00:37I like SMU with one and a half,

00:40the upset of Clemson in Dallas.

00:43Wow, that's a bold pick.

00:45SMU's playing great, sorry,

00:47Clemson's playing great basketball,

00:49but SMU too, hot team at home.

00:52Eileen Mustangs with you.

00:53That should be, that's a very underrated game.

00:56All right, let's look at some of the other ones

00:58like Kentucky and Alabama and Tuscaloosa.

01:01It's eight and a half.

01:02I think they cover it.

01:04Duke and Illinois.

01:05I think Duke covers it.

01:06Illinois' entire team has diarrhea.

01:09BYU and Arizona at the McHale Center.

01:11I like Arizona at home.

01:13Boy, I'll tell you what,

01:15I think they can actually cover the seven and a hook.

01:17I'm still chalky there.

01:19No line on San Diego State and Utah State.

01:21I'll take the Aggies in an upset in Logan,

01:24if you wanna call it that.

01:25They're both good teams.

01:27I think they're both tournament teams.

01:29And St. Mary's-Gonzaga.

01:31Gonzaga at home in Spokane.

01:33You gotta take Hughes, Zags, lay the four and a half,

01:36even though St. Mary's is the better team this year.

01:39I agree.

01:40St. Mary's before,

01:41I usually like taking them as a home dog

01:43or almost a pick them against Gonzaga.

01:46Gonzaga should win that game, Scotty.

01:47Yeah, we're in agreement right there.

01:49I don't know, it might be too many points.

01:50BYU's playing good basketball,

01:52but they do more damage at home than on the road.

01:55All right, let's talk about Sunday.

01:58You got UConn and St. John's at the Garden in New York City.

02:02Purdue's at Assembly Hall against Indiana.

02:05And Florida Atlantic is at the FedEx

02:07in Memphis off Beale Street.

02:09I think Memphis wins.

02:11There's no doubt to me that Purdue wins.

02:14And St. John's beat UConn in stores, no less.

02:19They beat them on campus.

02:20And I think they'll beat them again at the Garden.

02:23But I gotta see the number,

02:25because I think Hurleys, Huskies will show up for this game

02:28after losing to them at home.

02:30I think that's the game of the day.

02:32And I think it's gonna be a fantastic game

02:34of the world's most famous.

02:36Great call by you, Scotty.

02:37But St. John's, you know, UConn's the big dog.

02:39St. John's beat them.

02:40They gotta do it again.

02:41And that'd be a huge statement win

02:42if they can beat these guys twice.

02:44But you're right, it's probably,

02:45UConn might be the play as an underdog.

02:47But I think St. John's wins the game.

02:50Depends on how many sticks they get,

02:51because let's face facts.

02:53I mean, Luke knows it as well.

02:55St. John's, to me, doesn't shoot the ball well

02:59from outside or the line.

03:01They do incredible things inside.

03:04And I think they get to the 10,

03:05and I think they play great defense.

03:07And I don't think UConn, for my money this year,

03:11frankly, is worth a damn.

03:13I don't think they're any good.

03:14I think they're very average.

03:16I think, you know, obviously,

03:19they'll get into the tournament,

03:20but I don't think they're going anywhere in the tournament.

03:22And I'm not afraid of UConn anymore.

03:25I, full respect, they went back-to-back championships,

03:29but there's no way you can tell me

03:30that Hurley has a championship team this year at all.

03:32They don't have the goods.

03:34No, they don't.

03:35They don't have the goods at all.

03:37And his brother in Arizona State,

03:38you talked about that.

03:39I watched that game against Houston.

03:41They looked absolutely brutal, but I'm with you.

03:43I'm not scared of UConn.

03:44I don't think anybody's scared.

03:45And Scott, this is huge for St. John's too, right?

03:47You know what I mean?

03:48This program is really on a heater,

03:49and UConn was a team that was great in the past.

03:52So, go Johnnies.

03:53Let's go St. John's.
