00:00All right, Coach. So I guess at this point, what we have to do is try and find a path
00:05for Connecticut, because Michigan has just been so dominant throughout this NCAA tournament. They beat Arizona. I mean, look, maybe
00:14Michigan, the better team. I mean, Coach Hurley, who you know, I mean, maybe he's got something figured out tonight
00:20to keep this game close. From a betting perspective, though, this is one of the bigger lines you're going to
00:25see in a national championship. What do you think happens this evening?
00:29I think UConn is going to be in this game. I don't think, you know, people may put too much
00:35emphasis on what happened in the game between Michigan and Arizona. UConn is a different dynamic and a different way
00:43of how they play. Right, Craig? They're going to bring this game to the deep end of the pool. And
00:50they're going to find out if these Michigan, particularly these guards, can swim. And the Michigan guards were absolutely fantastic,
00:55obviously, versus Arizona.
00:57But Dan Hurley has a way of getting you to play his way. And Dan Hurley has a way of
01:04getting you to make it a street fight. And where they make it a street fight, maybe UConn are the
01:11tougher kids.
01:12You know, you lean on Hurley, you lean on guys like Alex Karaban, three Final Fours in four years. I
01:18don't know the last time we've had a guy that started three Final Fours in four years in the days
01:22of one and done.
01:23So I think UConn is a very much a live dog. And it's going to also come down to the
01:29big man, Terrence Reed Jr., who has been absolutely fantastic.
01:33Seven points for rebounds really early on in the game versus Illinois and kind of punked Illinois a little bit
01:38early on.
01:39If Terrence Reed Jr. can get scoring inside over the bigs of Michigan, I think he can.
01:45Then it opens up the shooting for guys like Ball, Damari, Karaban, Mullen, so on and so forth.
01:50I'm going to take the seven and a half points with UConn. I would not be stunned.
01:53I actually think UConn is going to win it, to be honest with you.
01:55But for me, it's a safer bet. Take the seven and a half points tonight.
