the East Region. We'll start there and take a look at the
00:02
matchups. As Duke, of course, is the number one seed. We'll see,
00:07
you know, again, who is the 16 here. It won't matter. Duke's
00:09
going to win, I would assume. Then you have Alabama, Robert
00:11
Morris. Oregon takes on Montana, followed by Oregon,
00:16
Wisconsin, Montana, Oregon, and Liberty here. A lot of big
00:19
spreads as we would expect in the first round with these
00:21
teams, Coach.
00:23
Yeah, I think that the draw really is favorable for Duke
00:25
and at that top half, Craig, if you look at the fact of
00:29
Mississippi State overachieving this year, Baylor
00:31
underachieving. I think this Liberty versus Oregon match
00:34
with the 12-5 has upsets written all over it, possibly.
00:38
Arizona at the 4 seed, you don't know what you're going
00:40
to get out of Caleb Love. He can shoot you in a game
00:43
and he can shoot you right out of a tournament. It really
00:45
depends on what Caleb Love you're going to get. Go to
00:48
that bottom half of the draw where you can see some other
00:51
upsets. VCU is a popular pick. Ryan Odom is going to be
00:54
probably in his last year. He'll probably be moving on
00:56
to a Power 5 job. Look at possibly Villanova or Virginia.
01:00
St. Mary's tough-minded defensive team. With Coach
01:03
Bennett, they will grind it down. Will be an intriguing
01:06
matchup in that 2-15, that 2 versus 7 matchup in the
01:10
second round as they play Alabama. Contrasting styles.
01:13
Nato's fastest team in the country. Up-tempo, up and down
01:17
versus the St. Mary's team. If they get by Vanderbilt,
01:20
a team that's going to walk it up the floor and make you
01:23
play at their pace.
