And then Loyola, Chicago and Georgia Tech is the 89 in the Midwest.

What do you think Sister Jeanne is praying for right now in the second round matchup again, she starts figuring how to attack that zone.

To take care of.

All these dudes will turn you over.

I mean, it is hard to simulate what they do.

That's a really good passing team.

Loyola Georgia Tech Disruption.

Jose Alvarado is hard to play against.

He's a one man defensive disruptor.

He's bigger, but he reminds you a little bit of Muggsy Bogues with the way he's able to take the ball from you and anything below the rim belongs to him.

Those are two really good defensive teams and and they play differently.

But they're hard to play against Cameron Krutwig.

Dude is 16, handles the basketball out front for them.

All of their offense pretty much runs through him.

He's a terrific passer, so he would be the perfect guy to put out that free throw line area against that Georgia Tech zone.

I think the Oklahoma State, in a 4 13 matchup against Richie McKay and Liberty there.

I thought Oklahoma State would be seated a little bit higher than this.

Uh, the Flames winning the Atlantic sun may be the best individual player in the tournament.

And Kate Cunningham, Uh, if you like to see it here, do you think they should have been a little higher?

I thought I thought with the way they finished the season, I thought they would be a little bit higher.

But that's gonna be a That's really gonna be a terrific game.

This Liberty team, this Liberty team.

They're not as good as defensively as they have been in the past.

They extend their defense out a little bit more.

They play a pack line, but they play it out a little bit more.

And that could actually work to Oklahoma State's benefit.

It's McGee, big time shooter Chris McGee and then Elijah Cuffy is a defender.

I think that's a really rough draw for Oklahoma State.

Really rough, because if they get Tennessee in the second round, assuming they beat Liberty, which is not going to be easy to do, Richie McKay was under Tony Bennett.

They play a lot like Virginia and and They're good, they're really good.

And Oregon State is playing its best basketball after being the champion of the Pac 12 tournament.

And by the way, we start to fill out the bracket.

I told you guys in a meeting room earlier said they only two teams in the whole bracket will keep me from picking Oklahoma State to go the Final 41 of them was Illinois.

So there you go.

Of course, naturally, they got a Mac.

It's up against each other in San Diego State and exhaling in northern New York State.

As Syracuse gets in.

They don't have to do the first four games.

San Diego State against Syracuse Samuel State is a terrific defensive team.

They are physical.

They defend Matt Mitchell is a big front court guy about 66 that plays downhill and kind of can really rebound.

The basketball menses a terrific shot blocker.

Samuel State is hard to play against executing a half court.

Better against men than against Oh, no.

Yeah, but Jordan shackle can really shoot it.

Carol Gomez the same thing.

Uh, there there.

I would favour San Diego State in that game unless Buddy Boeheim goes off again.

Now Syracuse doesn't rebound the basketball very well on their defensive back board.

But San Diego State, other than that, doesn't have a whole lot of size.

And so they shouldn't be able to protect the middle of the paint You've got West Virginia and Morehead State Morehead State winning the Ohio Valley Conference.

They've got some size up front.

Johnny Broom.

I'm gonna tell you some that dude.

6 10 freshmen blocked shots, running the floor after about 14 points a game.

Nine rebounds.

Really talented.

They have defensive confidence in speaking to coach Spradling.

He really believes they are committed on the defensive end.

I'm not sure if they're athletic enough in the perimeter, but that team can really guard.

And Broom is no joke tonight.

Broom is really good, but one of the things that the President Spradling does with his team is they splice in movie scenes into their into their film.

So those guys love watching film because of the different movie scenes, this place in for him.

But let's not forget, though.

He's going to be playing against a veteran and Derek over on the interior, who's so hard to guard at 696 10 can play with this back to the basket, great on the low block and loves to get over that right shoulder with the left hand.

That's a big assignment for the young freshman.

So you say it's one movie, not a double feature.

Correct.

How about the joy that they're feeling on the banks of the rare tan?

The State University of New Jersey, for the first time in two decades, has made it into the field, and they draw Clemmensen.

That's first to 65 wins, that those teams twice struggle offensively, but both of them really defending early in the season, I was absolutely in love with this.

Rutgers teacher Ron Harper Jr is a big physical guard.

Monta math is is extremely athletic, and Miles Johnson protects the rim.

I think Rutgers has a chance to advance not only in this game, but potentially pass this game.

I really like there.

Don't you think for Rutgers a little bit like Wisconsin getting out of the Big 10 is going to help their outlook a little bit.

Uh, seeing somebody new, they're gonna play like they did earlier in the season.

Clemson can get stuck on the offensive end, so it's going to be important for Nick Honor to be able to create offense for himself.

He's one of the only guys on the team that can make his own shot.

Mayor Simms, though he can guard multiple players.

I just don't know if Miles Johnson.

I think he can go out on the floor, move his feet and guard him on the floor.

Very good to 15.

Matchup.

The champion of the American tournament in Houston against Cleveland State, the winner of the horizon.

Now this is Cleveland States, third bit in their first bid in 1986 of the 14 they took down, Bob Knight in Indiana went on, and it took David Robinson and Navy to knock them out where they made it in 2009, they knocked off Wake Forest as a 13 seed they want as a 13 They want is a 14 chances to win as a 15.

No, no, you never You never loved 15.

Fifteens are eight and 132 in the first round.

Historically, Now Dennis Gates has done a remarkable job.

Tori Pat is a really good player, trade a million is a linebacker in shorts.

They're good, but that's a That's a tall order you're asking them to pull off to be.

Houston Houston is tough as nails, the offense, even if they shoot it poorly, which they do a lot, UH, the offensive rebound.

And I don't think Cleveland they can stop.
