  We're talking about college basketball. Looking at some bracketology the SEC eight nine ten
• 0:05
  or eight nine teams depending on excuse me, the bracketologists that you look at
• 0:09
  Alabama with a one game advantage over Tennessee. As we come down the stretch,
• 0:13
  now you look inside the state ole Miss Mississippi State will play tomorrow night,
• 0:17
  Humphred Colisseum. Both teams said it's six and six dogs on a three
• 0:21
  game winning streak, the revs obviously one game winning streak, so a lot
• 0:25
  on the line for both State and ole Miss and of course this conference as
• 0:28
  well. As we come down the stretch. Yeah, and you know,
• 0:31
  I think again, nine teams from what everyone we talked to Jake, seems
• 0:35
  to be the consensus that right now. You know, the last time I
• 0:38
  looked, what maybe Texas A and M was in as an eleven seed,
• 0:41
  one of the first four. But outside of that, State and Ole Miss,
• 0:44
  I saw them both listed as ten seeds, and I think everybody else
• 0:47
  is pretty much solid. South Carolina, Kentucky I saw at sixes and then
• 0:51
  from there, I mean, look, this regular season championship is going to
• 0:54
  be a blast to watch down the stretch. You could take any of these
• 0:58
  teams and kind of look at their schedules, say, whether it's Alabama,
• 1:00
  whether it's Kentucky, whether it's Tennessee, South Carolina, Auburn. Whoever wins
• 1:06
  this regular season title is really kind of earn it because the schedules would be
• 1:08
  great over the next couple of weeks. Man, it's oh, it absolutely
• 1:11
  is. It's hard to know until you see the brackets. Because we know
• 1:15
  this when you get into tournament play, and we'll make the same case when
• 1:18
  you get into the College Football Playoff. Your seating matters, who you play
• 1:22
  matters. Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama. You referenced those guys. Is there
• 1:26
  one team you like that say, hey, regardless of the setup, I
• 1:30
  like this team to make a run, you know, Elite eight, possibly
• 1:34
  Final Four. Is there one above the rest in the SEC? Well,
• 1:37
  look what Alabama's done is just incredible, man. I mean They've got Mark
• 1:41
  Sears, who's shooting forty five percent beyond the three point line and over what
• 1:45
  one hundred and thirty attempts or something like that. They've got size inside,
• 1:49
  They've got again a handful of guys who can get it lighted up from outside.
• 1:53
  We've seen them what hit one hundred plus eight different times? But can
• 1:56
  they play enough defense? I love Auburn's depth. Jalen Williams factor is a
• 2:00
  big key. They need him back to make their run. But look out
• 2:05
  for this Kentucky team. Man. They are surging at the right time.
• 2:07
  So it's Florida for that matter. Don't look down with the Gators at one
• 2:09
  seven of their last eight and they get Bama tomorrow night. That'll be a
• 2:14
  huge, huge match up and we'll see if the Gators can actually I think
• 2:15
  those two actually have to play twice between now and the end of the regular
• 2:20
  season, so the Florida Gators are going to have a say and who wins
• 2:23
  this regular season title
