00:00Jy as we focus on the East region Duke is the number one seed in this portion of the bracket
00:05But you're opening round of 64 game to watch is what it's Liberty versus, Oregon
00:10I think this is an intriguing matchup of two teams that that shoot the ball
00:16Extremely well versus teams that defend also really well
00:19So it's gonna be a match of style of fights
00:22And if you obviously look at a team like Liberty when you could say that you have you know
00:26I think it's it's seven players that get you eight point eight to thirteen point nine that becomes as a coach
00:34Difficult to defend because they can hit you kind of like Cleveland Cavaliers do not NBA and waves in different ways
00:41And if as a coach you can mix and match your lineup combinations to find what you need Dana Altman
00:47We were talking about people told was Dana Altman done last year. He's got them back. He's new league. No problems five seed
00:55You know, maybe some people think could have been a little bit lower
00:58But this is a really good matchup an intriguing 512 that really can go either way another 20-plus win season for Dana
01:06Altman in Eugene which has really been the case since he's been the Ducks head coach dating back to
01:122010 also in that 15-year window
01:1575 and 31 the overall record for Altman and his Ducks in this month
01:21It is where they play their best
01:22They got off to a great start this year then struggled early in Big Ten play
01:26They dropped six of seven including five straight
01:29They had won eight in a row before they took on Michigan State quarterfinal Friday in the Big Ten tournament eight quad one wins
01:36For Oregon a proven and battle-tested team
01:38They're a six and a half point favorite against the flames the champions at a conference USA led by head man
01:44Richie McKay my opening round of 64 game to know is a team that I highlighted JY to maybe be a national
01:50Championship sleeper if the offense is as good at a historic pace that we saw this year in Madison
01:56That would be the Wisconsin Badgers. They get the champs out of Big Sky country
02:00Montana in one of the reasons I think this game is so compelling
02:04JY Montana knocked off as the two-seat in their conference tournament title game
02:08Northern Colorado who is the top team in that conference tourney?
02:11I thought the Bears would be a team to make some noise
02:14Maybe around a
02:161314 seed in this NCAA tournament and if Montana is going to win that game and take on this Wisconsin team
02:23I think we could see some offensive fireworks one forty eight and a half the total a
02:28Sixteen and a half point spread in favor of the Badgers
02:31I think that game will be tight come Thursday one of our first games by the way
02:35Or we will have our bracket central coverage you myself live from New York City
02:40Starting at noon Eastern Time for one of the greatest two days each and every year the round of 64 Thursday and Friday
02:48Wisconsin tips the greatest. I'm sorry
02:531 30 p.m. Eastern Time the Badgers 16 and a half point favorite
02:58So those are the opening round of 64 games in upset that we might find in this East region
03:04JY which dog might go barking? Oh, it's gonna be VCU about 14 years ago
03:09There were a number 11 seeded in souls, but it was a playing game
03:13But this VCU team on the Ryan ornament is just absolutely dynamic and it can do things to you defensively
03:19That can make you hurt and listen be warriors dynamic offensively
03:24But all you need is for 140 in a game to be a little bit off and have enough firepower
03:30On the other side of the bracket and I think that's what you're gonna get here with VCU probably a popular pick at some to
03:37Get that 11 6 game VCU the Rams go marching on
