00:00and your Wolverines are obviously the late 939 game
00:05with the other late 1009 game with Purdue and Houston.
00:09But you know, in Atlanta, Michigan, and Auburn,
00:12and the numbers creeped up to nine,
00:15that's unbelievable to me against a team, Michigan,
00:17that never loses, it's just, they never lose.
00:20Michigan are a great tournament team, right?
00:23They're okay in the regular seasons over the years,
00:25but just think back, guys, think about the time
00:27their plane crashed, going to the Big Ten tournament.
00:30It skidded off the runway, they actually, guys got hurt,
00:33and they took a team vote after,
00:35should we get back on the plane
00:36and go to Washington for the Big Ten tournament?
00:39And they said, hell no, we're not.
00:41They voted no, the team voted no.
00:44The player said, no, no, we're done.
00:46Like, we're pulling from the tournament,
00:48I'm rattled, we just crashed our plane.
00:50And the team captain stepped up and said,
00:52listen, we gotta go, and we gotta do this, you can't,
00:56life is tough, a beeline game, a life is tough thing.
00:59They went and won the damn thing.
01:01They remember that they fired Bill Frieder left,
01:04but Bill Frieder left, Steve Fisher won the championship.
01:07Dustin May comes in, they went to Big Ten,
01:09like, Dustin May takes FAU to the Final Four.
01:12They're a good tournament team, good tournament coach,
01:15knows how to adapt, knows how to game plan.
01:18Now he's had all week for this.
01:19Listen, Auburn get into foul trouble,
01:21I think that's a big key tonight, guys.
01:23Auburn get into foul trouble,
01:24and we've talked about it, Scott,
01:27Auburn's like front line guy,
01:28they look like the Auburn Tiger defensive line.
01:31Like, you could put these guys on a football field,
01:33and like, they're in better shape than a football line.
01:34You think Michigan's gonna beat them?
01:37I think I'm gonna take the money line, yeah.
01:39Because, listen, we can talk about the nine, Scott,
01:42all we want.
01:43That's what I'm talking about, go for it.
01:45Well, we can talk about the nine all we want, Scott,
01:47you and I know, it'll be close,
01:48every Michigan game is close.
01:50It's automatic.
01:51I'm expecting it to be 77-77 with two minutes left,
01:55and Michigan will have it right where they want them.
01:57Right, it'll be like, all right, guys,
01:59we've won 15 games by four points or less, let's go.
02:03This is what we do in close games.
02:06Dude, Gale has really come on, right?
02:08He's come out of nowhere.
02:09He dropped 26 the other night.
02:11Donaldson isn't turning the ball over, all right?
02:14So, suddenly, you know, Donaldson's balling.
02:17Michigan, it's all coming together for them right now.
02:20Love the nine points, they have a shot at winning the game,
02:22and I like the game to go over the number.
02:24Give me Ole Miss plus the three and a half.
02:26Beard played, coached against Izzo in a tournament
02:30in like 2020 or 2019, held him to 51 points, all right?
02:35Beard knows Michigan State.
02:37It's gonna be a slugfest battle,
02:39and Beard's got the athletes to compete with Sparty.
02:42The spread's only three and a half for a reason,
02:44it's kind of low.
02:45Tennessee finds a way, Scott.
02:47Let's do this for RB Rick Barnes, all right?
02:49Everybody always dumps on this guy.
02:51Rick Barnes gets a big win tonight.
02:53They cover the number barely.
02:55They win by like five or six or seven or something like that.
02:57And I think the Houston Cougars roll Purdue.
03:01You're trying to be nice to Rick Barnes
03:04is just not part of the equation today.
03:06I don't have any feelings about him whatsoever.
03:11He's got crow's feet.
03:12What's the, who doesn't?
03:15What's the last game you're doing with Purdue-Houston?
03:18What are you doing there?
03:19Cougs roll.
03:20I think Purdue are a two-man operation.
