That’s where I put my Komodo dragon when I fly United.
Things discussed:
Michigan ends up seeded below MSU but with a more favorable draw.
Last Michigan team that faced UNC was a very different team than a hypothetical rematch in the Sweet 16.
Montana preview: The best 14 seed sure, but shut down their point guard and you’re in business.
Don’t look past Houston, though. Ed’s numbers favor Houston and people are emailing. They can catch fire from three—Michigan’s ability to run them off the line makes us a bad matchup for them.
Houston’s path to an upset is defense and getting hot from three. But they’re a small team so Michigan should be able to beat them in the paint.
Virginia: how much does losing the 6th man of the year affect them?
Callers: Angry Steve. Angry Phil.
In-Studio: Angry Craig.
Auburn is playing like there’s no tomorrow, because there’s no tomorrow.
Don’t like playing against zones because Michigan just stares at them before they figure out how to shoot, and we don’t have a lot of rise-up shooters on this team.
Around the brackets: How does Zona start two 7-footers and not be close to a top 50 defense? 1 seed Xavier is not favored vs 4 seed Gonzaga—do we believe it? Sam like Zona.
First round games: Butler is the easy pick. Would you ever take a 10% sixteen seed?
Who’s the last Teske that Michigan’s had? Craig starts to talk about the worst officiating call in the history of the Big Ten.
When will teams start playing Z dishonestly? If they haven’t already there’s a there there.
Final Fours: Brian: UNC-Purdue-Duke-Virginia, Craig: Cincy-Xavier-Purdue-Duke, Ed: Nova-Duke-UNC-Cincy
