00:00So, Nebraska, did they fall out of the tournament with that loss to USC right now for the time

00:06being?

00:07Yeah, that's their fifth loss in a row and the worst of those five losses.

00:10So yeah, Nebraska fell out of my bracket today, finally.

00:15I forget who they're playing this weekend.

00:16Oh, they're at Wisconsin.

00:18So another chance for them to take a big step in the right direction because Wisconsin is

00:23having a surprisingly good year.

00:25I've got them as a fourth seed in the bracket.

00:27So, you know, this would be a big win if Nebraska can get it, but they just need to

00:31get something positive going because five losses in a row, I saw them at Purdue.

00:35They were never in that game.

00:37That was as bad a game as I bet they play all year, but they've got to get something

00:41positive going if they're going to make the NCAA tournament.

00:44You know, I got to be honest, you know, Alabama, you have a one seed in Iowa State as well

00:50and they both are very deserving and they both have just been kicking team's asses lately.

00:57Yeah, I mean, that's partly why they're there.

00:59You know, it's they've been dominant in the games in which they should be dominant.

01:04And, you know, that's I mean, you know, Tennessee, they've got, you know, Auburn at home this

01:09weekend. We already talked about that.

01:10You know, Iowa State is is winning that league.

01:13And Duke is those four teams have really they haven't entirely separated themselves because

01:19that the second SEC team on that line kind of rotates around a little bit.

01:24And it could eventually be someone that's not in the SEC.

01:26But, you know, for now, you know, there's there's two SEC teams on that top line in

01:32Alabama, Tennessee.

01:34You know, those teams keep trading back and forth.

01:36Florida, maybe Kentucky have been up there for a bit, too.

01:39So the top of this league is really, really strong.

01:41Eight teams in the top 16 of the bracket from the SEC.

01:46So you have St. John's in eight.

01:48They're automatic this year after they got left out last year.

01:51But Tina's done a hell of a job with this team.

01:53Yeah, they have. There's nothing automatic about it unless they win their league.

01:57But they're on a good track to make it so that the committee doesn't have to really make

02:02a decision about them this year.
