00:00Baylor against Mississippi State. Bobby Moe against Alabama. 22.5 for Bobby Moe they're

00:07going to be getting. Lipscomb against Iowa State. Iowa State guard Keyshawn Gilbert going to miss

00:12the tournament with a groin injury. One of their best players. Look out for that. Colorado State a

00:1612. Favored over Memphis a 5. That will be talked about a lot. And St. Mary's minus 3.5 against

00:25Vandy. Vandy beat a lot of good teams this year in that SEC. You know I kind of like Vandy Scotty

00:32a little bit more. Like we talk about Georgia and Texas and how that you know they're kind of soft

00:38in Oklahoma. I feel Vandy's a little different because they beat a bunch of the heavies in that

00:42conference. And that's the difference. They played all these heavyweights and then that's called

00:49battle tested. And then you play in that candy ass WCC. You don't play anybody. They play and

00:57lose to the same team every year. We all know what happens at the end of the season when St.

01:04Mary's putters out. We all know how and who dominates that conference. It ain't them.

01:11They had the best team. Best ranking. Best everything. But it's always the same team that

01:16wins it. And thank God they're leaving. Right. Because then St. Mary's can finally win the

01:21conference now. Right. So I agree with you. I like Vandy. I think Colorado State is good enough to

01:27beat Memphis. That's why they're favored. I know Iowa State is without their guard but they are

01:32still so deep and talented. I they're not losing to Lipscomb. Now Bobby Moe getting a fat 22 and

01:41a half burger might be very interesting against Bama but Bama is legit and they play D. And I

01:47think you know they could be in trouble Bobby Moe there. And then you know Baylor can beat

01:53Mississippi State. I mean Baylor was tough in the in the tournament in their conference tournament.

02:00They were tough. So they can play anybody. I think Drew is a good coach. I like their chances. Look

02:05at the spread. It's only one and a half. Yeah that says that's as coin flip an eight nine game as you

02:11can have there with that one and a half. Anybody can win that one. More it's Friday games. The

02:17Antelopes of Grand Canyon. My Lopes. I'm not going to pick them to go to the final four like I did

02:22last year. They're playing Maryland in the first round. They're getting 10 and a half. Norfolk

02:27State against Florida. Troy against Kentucky. New Mexico against Marquette. And Akron getting 13 and

02:35a half against Arizona. You mentioned this before. I don't know if they win but 13 and a half. Zips

02:40for me Scotty. I like their chances. I think I like Shaka smart. So I think he'll beat Rich

02:48Patino in New Mexico. I've seen them lose in Boise easily and they didn't get it done in the Mountain

02:57West did they. So I think they're overrated. And then I think Kentucky will win and cover. I think

03:07Florida is going to win big. And then I think Maryland will beat Grand Canyon and cover. I think

03:13Maryland I think the kid queen and Maryland's just same thing here. They're playing big 10 games all

03:19year. They're not playing. I mean Tarleton State. OK. You know Grand Canyon does not play tough

03:26teams. That's it. They do not play tough teams. Oklahoma TNU Connell be the late night Friday game.

03:36Bryant and Michigan State 17 and a half and Oregon against Liberty late night on Friday as well.

03:46Dana Allman's never lost a first round game. He's not going to lose that one either.

03:50They got a seven footer and they got great guards. Oregon will win that game.

03:55Michigan State will win. And UConn is going to beat Oklahoma.
