00:00Let's get to the SEC. Not in football, but in college basketball. Big SEC card tonight.
00:05Nine o'clock start. Tennessee is going to take on Georgia this game. Georgia, as the home team, open up as a one.
00:10And a half point favorite still sits at most outlets at minus one and a half.
00:12But we are seeing some two and a half as a favorite.
00:15Georgia starting to creep in. 159 and a half is the total. An interesting caveat.
00:20The number one team in SEC play getting to the free throw line. That's Tennessee.
00:25The number one team in SEC play it. Not fouling. That's Georgia.
00:28An interesting one to watch tonight, Joe.
00:30What's the spread line? Tennessee, Georgia.
00:32Well, this is interesting, right? This one was.
00:35It was delayed from Tuesday because of the winter storm, Donnie.
00:38You know a little something about that.
00:40But this should be an interesting one because I don't know if Tennessee who.
00:45is coming off a back and forth transition style game against.
00:50Alabama, in which they won, by the way, they do have a little extra days.
00:55It's worth a rest because of the delay here.
00:57But I'm not. It's not how Tennessee and Rick Barnes.
01:00wants to play. Mike White, the head coach of Georgia, that's exactly how he wants.
01:05wants to play. Georgia, one of the fastest tempo teams in the country.
01:08But I can tell you this, Rick.
01:10Rick Barnes versus Mike White.
01:12Barnes is 11-2 against White.
01:15and destroying him. Eight of the 11 wins have been by double-digit fashion, so.
01:20This is going to be interesting, this one.
01:23I think whoever dictates temp.
01:25tempo and pace, Donnie, wins this game.
01:28Let's keep it there in the SEC.
01:30Texas going to take on Auburn.
01:31Seven o'clock start here from Auburn.
01:33This line opened up overnight, Joe.
01:34Six and a half.
01:35As a number, still sits at six and a half.
01:36At most outlets, some five and a halfs starting to creep in in a total.
01:40which opened up 159 and a half, now dipping back, Joe, to 156 and a half here.
01:45Texas-Auburn spread line tonight is what?
01:48So, traps.
01:50Last spot here, Donnie.
01:51You got an Auburn team coming home after winning for the.
01:55first time in Florida since the 90s.
01:59They went to.
02:00Gainesville and beat the University of Florida on set.
02:02It's the first time they've done that in.
02:05forever, a huge road rivalry win, and now they come home.
02:10to Texas where they don't obviously have nearly the same kind of history that they had against Florida.
02:15So, which version of Auburn shows up?
02:17They've always been better at home, Donnie.
02:20than they have been on the road, but this could be a little deflating here.
02:25They're laying five, five and a half.
02:27I wouldn't doubt some Texas money.
02:30Very physical Texas team come in before tip here.
02:33Great offense, great defense.
02:35That typically travels in college basketball.
02:37Houston on the road to take on TCU.
02:40The baseline opened up as a six and a half point favorite to the road team.
02:43Houston Cougars overnight now.
02:45Joe, mostly eight and a half in the marketplace and a total listed at 137.
02:50Houston at TCU.
02:51Give me a spread line for this one.
02:54Yeah.
02:55This is going to be interesting, this game, because Houston, who prides it.
03:00They just gave up 90 points to Texas Tech.
03:05And allowed them to shoot 41% from three.
03:08I would not want to have been.
03:10In a Houston practice with Calvin Sampson this week here, Donnie.
03:13After that, something.
03:15Something tells me going to TCU and TCU very lackadaisical.
03:20The ball turns it over too much.
03:22They're going to get dominated on the boards.
03:25This could be over in the first half, Donnie.
03:28I expect Houston to come out.
03:30Screaming in this one here and TCU, although they've held their own.
03:35Recently, I just don't see Jamie Dixon and the horn.
03:40Frogs being able to keep up with a very angry Houston team right now.
03:44Angry.
03:45Defend that three-point line here.
03:46We know Houston likes to foul, but it's also very aggressive.
03:49Let's take a look at that AP.
03:50The top 25 in men's college basketball coming into this week.
03:53The top five, Arizona.
03:55UConn, Michigan, Duke, and Nebraska.
03:57And Nebraska is one of those.
04:00They're going to defeat a team here that lost a close battle in Big Ten play.
04:03So they're probably going to drop a little bit in the state.
04:05But Arizona, number one and still undisputed.
04:10National champions, maybe they're undefeated.
04:13Yeah, they are undefeated.
04:14And...
04:15Pretty hostile environment there in Provo that they had to go into.
04:20A couple of nights ago, Donnie.
04:21Get it done against a very good BYU team.
04:24So...
04:25The road is pretty clear for Arizona here, sir.
04:30Certainly, it feels like we'll be one of the number one seeds come March Madness.
04:35This team's got it all, and we saw it in that first game against Florida, and I told you that...
04:40That kid, Koa Pete, and this team is...
04:42They are legit.
04:43They've got a chance to...
04:45Run this table, and be a national champion, without a doubt.
04:48Have a...
04:50How about this in the SEC?
04:51We're not talking about men's basketball.
04:52Women's college basketball.
04:54Apparently, the sports...
04:55It does run through the SEC.
04:5610!
04:57A record 10!
04:58Top 25...
05:00Five teams are listed in the SEC.
05:02South Carolina, Texas, Vandy, LSU...
05:05Oklahoma, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Kentucky, Georgia, and Alabama.
05:08How about that?
05:10They are good, Donnie.
05:13I mean, it's a couple of good big...
05:1512 teams as well, but they got, yeah, the women's side here going...
05:20Some fresh faces now, not the same old, same old anymore, like we've seen in...
05:25years past with the South Carolinas and the Tennessees of the world.
05:28How about those SECs?
05:30Schools not named with the women's that we just talked about.
05:32How about flip it over to the men's?
05:34Tuscaloosa looks like it's...
05:35Going to be a playground for...
05:36Is he playing?
05:37Is he not playing?
05:38Charles Bidiaco's temporary restraining...
05:40His remaining order against the NCAA has been extended 10 more days due to the NCAA's count...
05:44Oh, the NCAA...
05:45The NCAA's council's unavailability for a hearing in Tuscaloosa.
05:48Does that mean that he can play...
05:50For the next 10 days, then they might take it away.
05:51Then he can still play some basketball again.
05:53Love it when the court system...
05:55When the court system decides when a player can actually play.
05:58Yeah, I love how...
06:00Now the NCAA is requesting a new judge in the situation because...
06:05Oh, well, he might have some ties to Alabama.
06:07You think?
06:08A state judge in Alabama...
06:10With a tie to Alabama.
06:11Shocking.
06:12Yeah, so good luck with that.
06:14In the meantime, Doug...
06:15The 23-year-old, he dropped 13 points, grabbed three rebounds and played 25...
06:20Five minutes for Alabama.
06:21Does that game not count now if he's not allowed to play again now?
06:24I don't understand.
06:25How does that work?
06:26Yeah, and how do you get around any of it?
06:27Like, judges are going to be intertwined anyway.
06:29Oh, we can't have a guy...
06:30He's a guy from Alabama, and then everybody goes,
06:31okay, let's move it to somewhere neutral.
06:32Okay, we'll give a judge that has a big booster to Auburn.
06:35And he's going to be in charge of this.
06:36We're going to move it out of state to Florida as if they would vote in Alabama.
06:40It's a tough scenario all the way around, but they started to dig this...
06:45grave, the NCAA and the coaches and the players, and it's just getting deeper and deeper right now.
06:49Only...
06:50Only two perfect teams left in Division I men's college basketball.
06:53It's the number one team in the nation.
06:55At 21-0 Arizona and survival of the fittest again yesterday.
07:00Number 24, Miami, Ohio, 21-0, pulling out a victory over...
07:05Yeah, you gotta love that, right?
07:09I mean, what a game...
07:10I mean, Nebraska, I gotta give them credit.
07:15They had to do it without their two big studs...
07:20Guys there, Mast and Frager were not available for this game.
07:25DJ Mast was a late scratch because of an illness.
07:28Sounds like the big...
07:30Man got a cold or the flu or something along those lines and could not go...
07:35We knew Frager wasn't playing because of the ankle injuries sustained, but when you go...
07:40You go in there and these two guys, you run everything through these two big guys and...
07:45Neither were available.
07:46The fact that this was as close as it was, Donnie, on the road...
07:49Who does?
07:50Thank you so much to Nebraska for almost pulling it off.
07:53By the way, how about a tale of two...
07:5550-48 at the break.
07:57Second half, Michigan 27, Nebraska only 20...
08:00You wanna talk about some defensive changes in the locker room for Michigan that absolutely
08:03worked and certainly from both.
08:05And also, this game was tied up late with about a minute to go.
08:08Nebraska gave it all.
08:09Still a good look.
08:10They've got a loss now.
08:1120-1 on the season, which includes 9-1 in the Big Ten.
08:15Still a very good basketball team.
08:16The expectations were a double-digit victory possibly for Michigan.
08:19So if we were...
08:20Talking Joe yesterday about the betting public, they probably were loving the fact they were
08:23getting close to double-digit.
08:25Michigan just laid the hammer anyway.
08:27Yeah, they did.
08:28I mean, believe it or not, there was...
08:30A lot of money that was coming in on Michigan throughout that day, especially...
08:35Once the injury report came out, and they realized that they would not have not...
08:40Just one big man, but both their big men likely weren't gonna go in this...
08:45That money kept flying in on Michigan there, and then ultimately, some...
08:50A guy off the bench in the second half, Donnie, defensively had to spark Michigan because...
08:55My goodness, if they would have lost this game at home, yeah, that...
09:00That would have been rough sledding for them to win a Big Ten championship for...
09:05Sure, but I gotta tell you, Nebraska, pretty impressive in the loss, Donnie.
09:10Indiana, the Assembly Hall was popping last night.
09:13Indiana took a 40 to...
09:1529 lead into the break, hung on for a 72-67 victory over the...
09:20Purdue Boilermakers yesterday, and a nice little upset for the Hoosiers in the Hoosier State.
09:25Yeah, I mean, I did...
09:28Purdue's in trouble, man, Matt...
09:30That's their third straight loss here, Dottie, and, you know...
09:35You can forgive them losing to Illinois coming out of, you know, a 10-day...
09:40A trip out west where they played four games in 10 days, you can...
09:43You know, that's forgivable.
09:45But, you know, then all of a sudden, a couple of days later, you go to Indiana...
09:50Indiana, who has now historically given them some fits.
09:53They got embarrassed last year.
09:55They got embarrassed last year at Assembly Hall, but you would have thought that a team that was back against...
10:00The Wall needed a win, would have shown up last night, and they did not.
10:04Kudos...
10:05Kudos to Indiana, but 40-29 in the first half, Indiana.
10:09Most points...
10:10They've scored in the first half, Dottie, and that was all she wrote.
10:14Let's take a look at a little Biggie.
10:15He's the basketball tonight.
10:16Madison Square Garden takes center stage.
10:18The Butler Bulldogs in town.
10:19This take on...
10:20St. John's a 12-and-a-half point favorite for Rick Pitino's boys.
10:23If we take a look at St. John's, the most...
10:25efficient offense in Big East play, it's them.
10:27You know, one of the worst defenses, efficiency-wise, in Big East...
10:30Big East play, it's Butler here.
10:32Do we have St. John's in a runaway tonight, Joe?
10:36Yeah, it kind of...
10:37Well, you know, Butler is interesting here that...
10:40They can certainly put up some points.
10:42This feels like a dead over to me, though, Dottie.
10:45It feels like points, points, and more points.
10:48It feels like we're getting ready for...
10:50Over and over.
10:51I wouldn't sweat out an under in the Johnny's game tonight against Butler.
10:54Yeah, good little basketball...
10:55We have a basketball card tonight in college basketball.
10:57Same thing with the NBA as we sit here on a hump day when...
11:00Wednesday on the Sports Grid Network with many more topics to come ahead for us here.
11:05We're gonna do that next.
11:06It's Donnie right side.
11:07Joe Ranieri.
11:08A couple coffees in the morning, staying warm.
11:10What we do!
11:11Come on, man.
11:15Take the people down, victory!
11:20Elaine, Joe!
11:21Where are we going tonight?
11:22Well, Donnie, we're gonna go back to...
11:25We're gonna go back to college hoops here tonight, even though my Red Hawks won.
11:30We could not cover the spread last night, but they remain undefeated.
11:34But I'm...
11:35I'm gonna go and continue to fade the Baylor Bears tonight, who are...
11:40They are a hot mess, this team.
11:42And the Cincinnati team, who had to travel...
11:45All out West Arizona to get embarrassed there in the second half.
11:48No shame in that.
11:50Well, what Cincinnati is, is very, very good at home.
11:53They're 10-2 at home this...
11:55And one of those losses, by the way, was a 67-60 loss...
12:00To Houston.
12:01So, no shame in that, either.
12:03This is a team that loves...
12:05To defend.
12:06They bring the pressure.
12:08And Baylor is a team that struggles...
12:10To do anything consistently.
12:12So, I think Cincinnati's defense, the fact...
12:15That they're home.
12:16I like them to be able to win and cover this game, the three and a half here tonight.
12:20That's, like...
12:21Let's learn this.
12:22That's my best-this cleaning.
12:23Let's move on to earth in OH 9 while.
12:24Let's just feel more good at night.
12:25We apologize to tonight.
12:26But think that I'll do that.
12:27I believe it's not enough.
12:28I hope I don't become so good at night.
12:29Alright.
12:30So, you'll see that.
12:31I mean, you know, not at the endшего as well.
12:32I need to see some saudade, can't call me...
12:33We know.
12:34And like, playing....
12:35We know that, nobody's going to be able to tune in a matter of going on.
12:36But it'll say really...
12:39ça friendly anywhere.
12:40And I'm going to click on to get厄치 part.
