00:00Let's lead off with Iowa State versus Purdue.
00:04And what can you say?
00:05We talked about Tamin Lipsy at his 18.4 points per game
00:10versus Braden Smith, the best point guard in the country
00:13at 13.4, 3.5, and nearly nine assists per game.
00:18It is going to be a big-time match with Lipsy,
00:22with Jefferson, with Smith, with Fletcher Lawyer,
00:26with Kaufman-Rendt, with Jacobson.
00:27This will be the first.
00:29I mean, they've both been tested,
00:30but this is going to be a huge, huge matchup
00:32with national championship implications
00:35as Iowa State takes on Purdue, which will be fantastic.
00:40Let's head on to game number two.
00:42Duke-Michigan State.
00:45What I love about these two teams, they don't duck anybody.
00:48Both undefeated, both ranked inside the top 10,
00:53but when we look at this matchup,
00:55it's going to be that matchup in the paint.
00:57It's Cameron Bruiser versus Jackson Kohler.
01:01I talked about the importance of Jackson Kohler
01:04to Michigan State, being a double-double guy.
01:08Well, now he goes against the best big man in the country,
01:12and the Bruiser, Cameron Bruiser.
01:14Can Jackson Kohler hold his own?
01:17Doesn't have to outscore, Cameron,
01:19but can he hold his own in a big-time matchup
01:23between John Shire and Tom Izzo?
01:26Game is in East Lansing, and Izzo should be rocking.
01:30Game number three, Louisville, Indiana.
01:33What can you say about the job that Pat Kelsey
01:37and Darian DeVries has done with these two programs,
01:42lifting up what we talked about before when I talked about Indiana?
01:46Basketball blue broads, basketball royalty.
01:51The NCAA is better when these two teams are at their height,
01:56and they've got two fantastic guards on each side,
02:01Ryan Conwell and Tucker DeVries.
02:04It should be a fantastic matchup and a great atmosphere.
02:08I do believe the game is at Assembly Hall.
02:10I have done the recruiting from Louisville through Indiana,
02:15so that's only about a 90-minute drive,
02:19let's say a two-hour drive from Louisville to Indiana,
02:22so that place will be rocking, big-time matchup
02:25between Louisville and Indiana.
02:27Let's get to Illinois versus Tennessee.
02:32I talk about great coaches.
02:34You hear me talk about this time and time again,
02:35how great of a coach Brad Underwood is.
02:38Kyle and Boswell, one of the best guards in the country,
02:4017 points per game, versus Jacoby Gillespie,
02:43Nick Amant, and Rick Barnes' crew.
02:47Folks, this game will be old school.
02:50Buckle up, because it's going to be dynamite to watch,
02:53as these teams will go absolutely at it
02:57and compete with two of the toughest coaches in the country.
03:02Let's get to our last matchup, and that's Auburn, Arizona.
03:07Auburn at 6-2, first year without Bruce Pearl.
03:10His son is taking over.
03:11I told you my thoughts about it,
03:12but he's got Keyshawn Hall playing really good basketball
03:14at 20.9 points per game, nine rebounds.
03:18Big man is doing work.
03:19I got to Coy Pete, who got off to a tremendous start,
03:23but it slowed down a little bit,
03:25but still giving you 15.6, 5.7.
