00:00It's a rematch right there of what we saw one year ago, less than a year, but last college
00:05basketball, the last college basketball game of last season, or between these two teams
00:11with Michigan and UConn for the national championship.
00:14Now, Michigan does have some guys on this team that will look very familiar to the team
00:19that you saw a year ago, but there's a lot of new, including a new head coach in Michigan.
00:25And Hurley, on the other side, will have a lot of very familiar faces on the team that
00:31was there a year ago, plus, of course, one of the best recruiting classes that we see.
00:38I mean, Hurley continues to be—there's a reason why the Lakers wanted him to take the
00:43job, and he turned it down, Craig, because he understood what was going on, and especially
00:49at UConn, where he's got unlimited resources, and they have an NIL pool there in basketball,
00:55that is second to none, and he continues to get guys that he can just simply replace
01:02that are better than the guys from a year prior.
01:06I think Hurley tonight, revenge spot.
01:09There's enough guys from the team a year ago, Craig, that lost to Michigan, embarrassingly.
01:15But there's no shame.
01:16I mean, the guy is playing next to Steph Curry that we just watched beat the Miami Heat last
01:22night, was on Michigan and won a national championship last year.
01:26There was no shame in it, but my goodness, it appears they're going to be out.
01:31Hurley doesn't strike me as the kind of coach that forgives and forgets rather easily, Craig.
01:36He's the kind of guy that will just keep the foot on the gas, and he will bury you if
01:41he
01:41has the shot.
01:43Seven and a half is what it's up to.
01:45It seems like a big number.
01:47I don't think it is a big number here.
01:49This is what guys like Hurley live for is moments like this.
01:53I think UConn runs away with it here tonight, but by far the game of the night in college
01:58basketball.
01:59Yeah, I'm looking forward to this, and it'll be a great rematch.
02:02And as you mentioned, the key with coaching here is that you have one coach on one side
02:07that just grabs your throat and just chokes it as much as he can.
02:11You know, if he's looking for a cover, he's going to get a cover.
02:14This is who you want on the other side.
02:17So I suspect you are right.
02:19And, you know, certainly UConn going into the season is considered to be far superior to
02:23Michigan, too.
02:24So I agree with that sentiment, too.
02:26And I do think that's a pretty solid play tonight.
02:28And also maybe the under in this play as well.
