00:00So let's look at one of the Tuesday matchups here, and this is a team with the Texas Longhorns, Paul,
00:06that in no way, shape, or form a week and a half or two weeks ago thought they would be
00:11playing in a play-in game.
00:12They are the 11 going up against NC State.
00:14I see them favored here by a point and a half, Paul, but man, they've played some of their worst
00:20basketball of the season down the stretch.
00:23I think they've lost three in a row and won and lost three in a row before that.
00:27What is going on with the Longhorns here?
00:30Can they get it together and beat NC State?
00:33Yeah, again, I think these teams can do sort of a reset when the NCAA tournament comes around, but Longhorn
00:40fans have to be concerned with their play down the stretch.
00:44They do play in a very difficult conference, a very competitive conference, top to bottom in the Southeastern Conference,
00:51but the fact is they've lost five of the last six, playing perhaps their worst basketball of the season.
00:58I will point out this is a rematch of a very entertaining game from Thanksgiving in the Maui Classic, where
01:05Texas beat NC State 102-97.
01:09I kind of lean Texas here.
01:11I think they're going to probably beat the Wolfpack a second time this season.
01:16Daylon Swain, a big-time performer for the Longhorns.
01:19So I lean Texas here over NC State.
01:21So I lean Texas here over NC State.
01:21Bye.
01:21Bye.
