00:00So I got to ask you, Isaac, because, you know, scheduling this time of year is interesting,
00:04especially now that we have teams flying halfway around the world to Orlando to play UCF like we
00:10did Arizona a few days ago. And boy, oh boy, that was a little too close for comfort for Arizona.
00:18But now they travel home and they're taking on Cincinnati, who, listen, they're going to bring
00:23the defense. Do they have enough of it in order to limit, to keep this game close here tonight?
00:28Or are the Bearcats likely going to get run out of the building?
00:33So the thing with Cincinnati all year is if they can keep you out of transition and get their half
00:38court defense set, it's a very, very good unit. That's easier said than done, though, against
00:43Arizona. Arizona is one of the elite transition offenses in college basketball, and they play
00:48with such violence. They're terrific on the glass. And when they get out and run, it feels like they
00:53got eight or nine guys that can really, really hurt you. And it feels like they really have eight guys
00:58that could score double figures every night. And so Cincinnati, I just, I don't see a scenario
01:04for Cincinnati to take good enough shots in this half court offense to keep Arizona out of transition
01:10because it feels like Arizona is going to force contested jumpers and that those long shots are
01:14long rebounds that Arizona just turns and books the other way for easy shots in the open floor if
01:19Cincinnati can't get the defense set. So it all comes down to Cincinnati shot selection tonight
01:24because I think that'll impact if they can get that unit set. For me, if I don't have a play
01:30on this game, if I was looking at one, I think the Cincinnati team total under 69 and a half is a
01:34certainly a solid look. I just don't see a lot of pass for them to be able to score against this
01:39Arizona frontline.
