00:00Now, Michigan and Auburn, I like to say buyer beware, has Auburn looked sensational so far

00:04in the tournament?

00:05Not necessarily, but still winning games and doing so comfortably here, loses three of

00:09their past four games before we entered into March Madness.

00:12But look at this, Michigan, like a bat out of hell in the Big Ten championships here

00:16at the end of the season, they were able to win their conference tournament.

00:19Seven and a half was the opening number at the FanBlue Sportsbook, up to nine and a half

00:23right now.

00:24So Auburn's going to have to win by 10 plus points with Michigan.

00:26For me, just looking from a public perspective, I would think the public would be jumping

00:30all over that nine and a half right now.

00:32What are your thoughts here on Michigan and Auburn coming into this one?

00:35The Ponzi scheme that is the Michigan Wolverines basketball team needs to end.

00:39I've had enough of this, I really have.

00:41They shouldn't have beaten Maryland in the Big Ten semifinals.

00:43They needed Wisconsin to shoot 22% from the field to beat them in the Big Ten final.

00:48And then, oh, let's investigate what happened against Texas A&M, who was up 60 to 50 with

00:5513 minutes left, and then somehow got outscored 41 to 19 over the final 13 minutes of that

01:01game for Michigan to run away with it.

01:04I don't know what happened to the Aggies in that game.

01:06What I do know is that I don't think Michigan wins this game.

01:10Now, can they stay within that number?

01:12Somehow Michigan always seems to play close games, always.

01:17And I have decried that I will bet against Michigan every game until they get eliminated

01:20because I don't believe in this team at all.

01:23The number of close games that they've won this year has been sickening and nauseating.

01:27I think they set the record for most Big Ten wins by a single possession this year with nine.

01:34I don't know how they keep doing it, but somehow they keep doing it.

01:38Laying eight seems like a lot, but would it shock you if Auburn ran them out of the gym?

01:43No.

01:44On the other side of it, would it shock me if Michigan somehow made this a one-possession game?

01:49It's all I've watched them do all year long, so why not?
