Does NC State have what it takes to make it to the final four in the March Madness Tournament · The Jake Wimberly Podcast

  NC State at the very bottom. Now, I know mathematically that's why they're
• 0:05
  there, But you look at this team that made a run in the ACC
• 0:08
  tournament. Anybody I said, whow they got in? You know by the
• 0:11
  hair their chinty chin chin shall always say they got in one the whole thing.
• 0:14
  They're not going to do anything. I said, that was, well,
• 0:16
  there's a layoff, you know that that week or almost a week time,
• 0:19
  here they are now they have won another two ballgames. Would you be
• 0:24
  shocked to see them win another ballgame or two in this you know, I
• 0:28
  wouldn't be shocked at this point. I was genuinely surprised that they were able
• 0:33
  to play they the way they did against Texas Tech. And then of course
• 0:36
  Oakland pulls the upset against Kentucky. So that's your second round matchup, actually
• 0:40
  making NC State a favorite in that game by my numbers. So I wouldn't
• 0:43
  be surprised because they've proven they can do it. And I just got done
• 0:46
  saying they're playing Marquette, who you know, if you look at my power
• 0:49
  ratings, that's by far the worst team on the one or two seed line
• 0:54
  from a power rating standpoint, But they're certainly going to be an underdog,
• 0:57
  and you know my number, given about a one and four chance to get
• 1:00
  get it done. And then if you do win that one, you gotta
• 1:03
  go up against either Houston or Duke, and either one of those teams I
• 1:07
  have power rated better than Marquette, so I don't expect to see NC State
• 1:11
  in Phoenix at the Final four. But I didn't expect to see him here
• 1:15
  at this round either, so I wouldn't put it past them, But they
• 1:18
  are at the bottom of my power rating list and chances to win it all
• 1:22
  for those reasons.
