00:00Auburn takes on Michigan. Auburn, a huge favorite this evening. Eight and a half point favorites total of

00:06153 and a half. Does Michigan have another one in them?

00:10You know, I'm a little surprised to see the spread as wise it is

00:13Auburn is a team who I think coming into the tournament

00:16They even though they're the number one overall seed

00:18It looked like the most vulnerable number one seed in the tournament. They've been tested during the tournament as well

00:23they had some injury stuff kind of pop up with Chad Baker Mazar last in the round of 32 and

00:28Michigan is a team who they played a tough schedule in the Big Ten and they found ways to win close games

00:34so I think Michigan does keep this game close just because Auburn has

00:38Continuously kind of showed their vulnerability and I think that Michigan has the talent to take advantage of those things and keep it close

00:43And what what a world would it be if we get a Michigan Michigan State Elite Eight?

00:48Yeah, that would be crazy. Do you do you think by the way, what do you attribute Auburn's?

00:52I mean Auburn look we cannot take anything away from them for almost the entire college basketball season Gilbert

00:57They were the best team in college basketball

00:59But there are a lot of people who are saying the same thing as you vulnerable seems to be the word that's used a lot

01:04What do you think has happened?

01:06Yeah, I think it's hard. I think it's very difficult to stay on top for that long

01:09I think we talk about seem like Florida who kind of consistently was right there at number two and number three and not getting the

01:15Headlines that a team like Auburn even Duke was getting you started to kind of see some of those flaws down the stretch of the season

01:20Those games they lost the way that they lost those games the way that they were eliminated from the SEC tournament

01:24I think teams have been taking advantage of the things that they've done in those games

01:28They've kind of been figured out to a certain extent

01:30So we'll see if having a week to prepare for this game tonight

01:33We'll kind of be what they needed the antidote to kind of get back on track

01:37By the way, taking a look at broom stats for the tournament

01:39I didn't realize that he has no three-pointers made over seven. Is that right from three-point range at this point?

01:44I mean he and Cooper flag were you know, neck-and-neck to be the player of the year

01:49Yeah broom in that Creighton game. They really tested him

01:51You know, he had to go against a big guy Ryan Cogburn who got foul trouble

01:54But they threw bodies at him and made life difficult for him

01:57So that's a big one

01:58Like you said if he can get back to playing in that national player of the year love that he displayed throughout the season

02:02Then I like their chances way more

02:04But again, you talk about Michigan big bodies golden and Danny wolf are two guys who could you know?

02:09Be in there stand in the way of a broom
