00:00Let's start with the South, because Auburn's the number one overall region here, number

00:06one overall seed, even though they lost three of their last four games.

00:10Auburn will play the winner of Alabama State and St. Francis, Louisville-Crayton, Michigan

00:14against UC San Diego, Texas A&M and Yale, Ole Miss will play the winner of North Carolina

00:19and San Diego State, Iowa State will play Lipscomb, Marquette, New Mexico, and Michigan

00:26State against Bryant out of the America East, the South region for you.

00:31Yeah, listen, you know, I guess the last time, frankly, that I think Michigan State was a

00:38two, they went to the, I think all three times they've been a two, they went to the Final

00:42Four.

00:43I think they're a really good team, a very physical team, and I think that, you know,

00:49I watched them lose in the Big Ten Tournament, I, you know, anything can happen in these

00:54tournament games, same as the NCAA Tournament, anything can happen, but they're not losing

00:58to Bryant.

00:59They're just too big and physical for Bryant, they're going to destroy them.

01:03Yes, they are.

01:05The Auburn Tigers are the favorites for that, obviously, of the South region.

01:10I saw them at even money, actually, favorites to win the South region right now, with Michigan

01:15State the second choice to win the South.

01:17How could I take them the way they're losing?

01:19They've lost three of four, and they're the number one overall seed in the tournament,

01:23and that makes no sense to me either.

01:25How do you lose three of four and you're rewarded?

01:28Here we go again.

01:29Like, this is insanity.

01:32And you sent me that clip of Pearl basically saying, why would I be panicked?

01:36You know, we lost a, we lost a three or one of the four best teams in the country on the

01:40stretcher, blah, blah, blah.

01:41Well, that means that any good team can beat them.

01:43They are not invincible.

01:45They can be beaten by the right team on the right day.

01:48Now, look.

01:49They will be beaten.

01:50They're not going to win it.

01:52Look, I don't know when it's going to be.

01:55Could it be the first weekend?

01:56Eh, maybe not.

01:58You know, the hard part for them is, is that if Louisville wins, they got to play Louisville

02:03in Kentucky, which is pretty unfair.

02:06Against Chucky Hepburn.

02:07Good luck.

02:08Against Chucky Hepburn.

02:09You know, and that Louisville team's got a little bit of a chip on their shoulder because

02:12they feel like they were screwed being an eight in this tournament.

02:16So that could be dicey for Auburn, playing basically a road game as a one seed against

02:22Louisville in the second round, if they get there.

02:24How'd that turn around for Louisville from last year when they went one and fifty?
