00:00JY, after one of the best Final Four Saturday nights we have seen in totality in recent memory,

00:06it sets the stage for a Monday night inside the Alamo Dome for a national championship game.

00:11It is basically a pick-em, Florida an ever so slight favorite. Total is 140 and a half.

00:18Where do you begin your breakdown for tonight's national title tilt?

00:23Honestly, with the referees. We have to see how this game is going to be efficient. I don't think

00:28people understand, like, Houston was able to be physical on the ball with Duke in the second half,

00:35rarely call for fouls. Do the referees stay out of the way and let this game be decided by

00:42the players? If that does, that leans in Houston's favor because of their physicality defensively.

00:51If they let this game get to the foul line, up and down, you may see Houston get in a foul

00:55trouble. That's where the trouble was. I've been on Houston since day one, even when it wasn't

01:03a value play, even though I thought in my mind of the value play, but it wasn't a value play.

01:08I'm going to stay with Houston bad because I look at that team and that togetherness and

01:14their ability to defend and the ability to have three, not one, not two, but three elite

01:21guards that can make shots. You saw Calvin's hip to smartly go to manual shot off the ball

01:28on the ball. Look for him to find the mismatch at the guard spot

01:32and exploit it. I like Houston on the money line to get the whip.
