  Four pm. Kevin Griffin in with us for the first half of the show
• 0:02
  talking started talking a little baseball. We'll get back into that basketball, I
• 0:06
  know, you big basketball guy. This is where it really starts to get
• 0:09
  fun. You can really, I think start looking at bracketology and you know
• 0:14
  it's it has some meat, like it's there's some you know, trust in
• 0:20
  what they're saying. So like right now, if you look at Jerry Palms
• 0:23
  bracketology, he has the one seeds as Yukon, Purdue, Arizona, and
• 0:30
  Houston he's got. And you look at the SEC teams because a lot of
• 0:34
  people talk about how many SEC teams are gonna get to the bracket. Well,
• 0:37
  just based on this, he's got Texas, A and M in a
• 0:40
  play in game. Uh, that's the one SEC team. So that would
• 0:44
  be one team South Carolina as a sixth seed without going through which one.
• 0:48
  South South Carolina is a six seed, Tennessee a two seed. He's got
• 0:54
  let's see here looking through the west, Mississippi State is a ten seed,
• 0:59
  Kentucky is a sixth seed. Also Ole misses a ten seed, Alabama a
• 1:03
  three seed, Auburn a five seed, Florida an eight seed, so that's
• 1:07
  typically you know, seven, eight, nine, how many thinks SEC is
• 1:10
  gonna get him? I think eight or nine we'll get in. It's a
• 1:15
  pretty strong year across the board. Everybody's beating up on everybody, and you
• 1:19
  know, even Kentucky is being as good as they are. They have question
• 1:23
  marks. People say they don't play defense, but then they went to Auburn
• 1:26
  and gave Auburn and their first home loss was that two days ago. So
• 1:33
  there's a lot of teams that can make some noise in the SEC for sure.
• 1:36
  Yeah, I'm looking at six and then seven, eight, nine,
• 1:42
  Yeah, nine, that counts Texas, A and M in the playing game.
• 1:47
  Do you think they'll and they've talked about this twofold question, do you
• 1:52
  think they will expand this field even further? And do they really need to?
• 1:55
  I don't think they need to. I mean, you have some really
• 1:59
  good first round games at times, but there's not many upsets, maybe three
• 2:07
  or four per round Day one, day two, and you always see somebody
• 2:13
  get beat that's not supposed to lose. But I just think it's sixty four
• 2:16
  now, it's what's sixty eight teams that's just plenty. I mean, you
• 2:21
  can narrow that down to thirty two and figure out who the top thirty two
• 2:24
  teams in the country are
