So let's start off and talk about the west region results. As you see there, the Gators won by 16,
00:06
so they end up covering the spread easily. Texas Tech needed everything that they could handle
00:11
to get past Arkansas. I know Gilbert, Arkansas is going to look at that as a missed opportunity
00:16
because they certainly had a chance to win that game and head toward the Elite Eight.
00:21
You know, using a silver lining, if I'm John Calipari, is really nobody had them getting
00:24
that far anyway. I know they're not going to feel great about that this morning, but really good
00:28
effort throughout the tournament from them. Yeah, absolutely. It's not something you'll feel
00:32
great about this morning, maybe even a week from now, but a couple months down the line,
00:35
looking at this 10-seeded team that they didn't have any players when he assumed that roster last
00:40
year and he built them from the ground up and for them to figure it out down the stretch,
00:44
but so many missed opportunities and I know they'll kind of, you know, wish they had that
00:47
one back because if one thing had gone differently, we're probably talking about them in the Elite
00:51
Eight. And credit the Texas Tech because this is a team who stuck to what they did and they
00:55
took advantage of the mistakes that Arkansas made and they made plays. That shot they made
00:59
to force overtime and then the plays they made in overtime to get the win. So that's kind of what you
01:03
think about when you think about the back and forth that we see in March Madness. Yeah, I would
01:07
agree. All right. So as you mentioned, Alabama put up a hundred, but so did Duke yesterday. Wow,
01:11
what a wild game between Duke and Arizona too. You know, certainly love came through for them
01:16
and I guess Gilbert, I was completely wrong. I was like, wow, if this guy love has a huge game,
01:20
they're going to win, but it just goes to show you how good Duke is. They're going to be a tough
01:24
out. Absolutely. And I think it was a reminder that the way to beat Duke is not to get in a game
01:30
that's that high of a scoring affair. I think you have to muck the game up and make things a little
01:35
ugly. We're going to see Alabama probably try and have another high-scoring affair with Duke
01:40
tomorrow. But, you know, again, you know, what a great performance from Caleb Love, a great way to
01:45
go down against his former school's rival, 35 points, no turnovers is the most impressive part
01:49
of his performance yesterday. But again, Cooper flag, 30 points. I think it was seven rebounds
01:53
and six assists, just showing us he's exactly who we thought he was coming into this league,
01:58
coming to the NCAA. And we know that he will be the first pick in the NBA draft here once his run
02:03
is done.
