The other hand C dire -- the chairman of the right is always the simplex -- anger in that M about something -- saying that's what it everywhere they go about this year.
Well I you know I think if we actually experience last year Don and that.
Everybody was really sees you how could you let the man you know they lost all these gains down that's certainly they've lost sixteen generally gonna play and we called -- Major League and all they did was go from.
The first -- to the final -- I think we're all kind of dial back a little bit on on the outrage.
I think I don't know with the one team.
That jumped out at -- it seems to be generating the most discussion.
Just as they did lose fourteen and accomplish that lost the -- a couple of back gains on the road I felt like there -- some other mid major team particularly Drexel.
Which I thought had a little bit of a better case and I don't know but it it it's hard to get really up in arms I would feel like hey if you if you inflate your way on to the bubble.
And your clothes you really have no right to complain -- at the end of the day.
You know there twelve games available for -- spot that you could draw names -- -- -- had to be no less wrong.
Than any other method you wanna do you want to use so yeah I would agree with you bit I don't think outrageous.

So they're just caught him in this extended down cycle.
And this is the first time that eighteen has won the outright regular season title any power conference and not been invited to the -- but.
It's it's ironic because California came in second in the standings.
But they did get that large because of who they played in where they won and including -- -- win at.

Another game being played to comply to Atlanta later today that sort in the studio -- there.
And Warner -- -- all laws exercised over.
I'm talking North Carolina and European -- and upload to involve losing yesterday or dental or whatever -- You know what they're there -- a lot of different way to get a cat I mean I've seen teams lose in the copper determining don't want to -- -- national championship last year.
You know you can't -- 500 in the big east.
And they won five games in five days in the -- term that you think that they would be completely.
Running on fumes and all they did was go when the national championship so you know at a media conference determine.
They become a little bit bigger in the eyes and the fans but to the selection committee into these coaches -- -- -- You know that that would -- -- just another game but it's not the end of the world that you lose in fact I think coaches.
Really -- if you have a goal to win a national championship I think you really don't mind losing number one may Begin that another day of rest.
The more the point it gets your -- attention like hey I've been telling you all law -- -- their wedding.
And your pointing out deficiencies they -- think that they're listening but they're really taking at the heart.
So once they elude the coast could say see I told to all longest the problem looked and we law that you guys don't -- -- to Begin losing get a -- Pick up or did you pick up our effort -- -- concentration systematically to Tibet thing.
-- given a couple of upsets in the first -- aren't -- -- model we're Georgetown.
Yes that's a Forte and suitable -- subversive.
Yes right I I actually I sit on the selection so that Obama was going to the sweet sixteen which is -- also -- the people you're doing it in your -- but he is my -- And overall size of the fact that you and I agree on that ignited it even worse news for -- but go ahead as stereo.
And an overall -- Lozada got long -- over to Mexico.
You know let's send that the -- -- -- 512 game in the sea lions that's kind of your traditional even though I to articulate fourth thirteen that the new 512 but.
I gotta pick -- to Mexico you know they won their conference term it.
You know they got a couple of good guard over the really have a very good center who transferred for do you see elated to fit your senior kidney -- Gordon.
And you know long beach state as it is very very good scoring guard kidney cast a -- goes about 511 to the united CI -- but.

Final you know I you'd like to pick at least one upset on but -- I'm a little talk to this -- I got Kentucky and Missouri.
And then I have Syracuse in campus I get to one seeds to -- -- And I Kentucky beat -- in the national championship game so I guess -- not really going out on -- limb.
For the -- around this year's -- try to look for those upset there they have about.
South Dakota State over -- over Baylor that's just 314 -- itself.
Fluid as they it was a team with -- -- a lot of talent a lot of size of -- -- kind of soft.
But Jack -- of South Dakota stated -- like saint Jack rabbit they went back gains that the key chain Jack rabbit.

The -- and came in Syracuse is a region that should frightened of -- -- settlement not Ohio State it's Vanderbilt.
Then to build -- -- veteran team.
And they are a great three point shooting team in the want to you know Turkey's -- -- 100% to be resolved at the grey zone the best in the country.
But Vanderbilt -- there's senior guards they had the ability to shoot and some big inside who can back a little bit and Vanderbilt of course just beat Kentucky yesterday.
