Midwest Regional Final in Indianapolis. A matchup of the top two teams in that portion of the
00:05
bracket that play a very similar style of basketball. Elite defensively grind you out,
00:13
Houston and Tennessee. And for a second time, Joe, in the last five seasons, Kelvin Sampson and his
00:20
Cougs continue their dance all the way to a Final Four. Houston took an early lead,
00:27
four-zip over the Vols, and never looked back. From tip to close, all Houston yesterday in the
00:34
inside Lucas Oil Stadium. A stifling defensive effort against the Volunteers as Houston wins by
00:41
19, 69-50, easily covering as a two-and-a-half point favorite. And again, indications of what
00:48
this game would be just in the pregame over-under, closing at 126-and-a-half. It stays well under
00:55
because of that Cougar's defense. Listen, Ben, it got steamed, that total yesterday,
01:02
because it was down as low as 122-and-a-half, 123. And all of a sudden, the over money,
01:08
people going, absolutely not. We're going to get a ton of points. And then Tennessee shows up and
01:13
drops a total of 15 points in the first half. And you're going, yep, that's Houston. Not to mention
01:20
the amount of Tennessee money that was also steamed late yesterday, Ben, dropping Houston down to what,
01:25
two-and-a-half in that game? There were a lot of folks that thought, because, and this is where
01:31
recency bias in this tournament comes into play, Ben, which is so dangerous. Everybody watched
01:36
Tennessee bulldoze Kentucky and saw, of course, Houston barely get by Purdue, who was playing
01:43
in their backyard, by the way. Yeah, what a difference a couple of days makes in the NCAA
01:49
tournament, Ben.
