00:00Auburn versus Duke. Plus 320, plus 350. Auburn's slight favorite there. Duke at the plus 350 price.
00:06Are we worried about Duke because it's going too well for Duke? Like, because I know we get caught
00:10up in something where they are crushing everybody. That's a great sign, playing their absolute best
00:14basketball at the end of the season. But I look at those, and I even asked Jay why earlier today,
00:18I'm like, is it just too easy? Like, we fault things like, oh no, Duke's in a round two struggle
00:23against, you know, a mid-major team. Or is this the real Duke Blue Devils team where they are
00:28hitting their stride and just saying, we play better defense and offense than you,
00:32and we have better athletes, deal with it. No, it's the second one. It's the second one.
00:37People are looking, not you, but people, they look for problems. Because Donnie,
00:42let's play the other way. Down ACC, every game is close. Duke's not that good. They're not that
00:48good. They're surviving the ACC. You know, I saw a tweet from someone, yeah, they just haven't
00:52played enough close games. Okay, well, hold on. Well, hold on. They played Auburn in a close game.
00:59Okay. They, you know, they played Clemson in a close game. They didn't get it done. They played
01:04Wake Forest in a close game. But again, like, why do you want them to play a close game against
01:10Boston College? Why do you want them to play a close game against SMU? They're smoking teams,
01:18smoking them, Don. And let's just say this. I think you would agree.
01:23North Carolina's playing some better basketball. And if North Carolina beats Duke,
01:29they're definitely making the tournament because of the value of that win.
01:34Like, if Duke goes out there and beats them by 15, 20 points, the takeaway should not be North
01:42Carolina's bad or all we knew North Carolina was terrible. No, that's a dominant, dominant,
01:47dominant victory. Now, if you want Duke to play a close game there and win by four or five, okay.
01:55Right. But again, it's this weird thing where we're like, I wish they were winning by less.
02:00Like, listen, you want a couple of close games. They've played a couple of close games.
02:05I think it's good that they lost at Clemson. I think it's good that they were losing at
02:08waking, came back and won the game. But Donnie, the Illinois game was what I have. This might be
02:13close. They beat him by 43. There's no way that that's like, oh, I wish that game was a two point
02:20game. I don't wish that game was a two point. Hey, they slaughtered. They got to know how to
02:25win in a struggle late. Like, they are beating teams brainless in their own conference about
02:30undefeated at Cameron indoor this season. The Duke Blue Devils, John Shire. Remember that? Like,
02:36good luck, John Shire, like handing off from a legend at this point doing everything. Now,
02:40granted, if he can cap this all for the championship, then he just goes into everybody's
02:44living room. Look at these great players. Look at Cooper Flag brought him in from Maine. Superstar
02:48number one overall pick. I can do that with you as well. Like, that just sets up that food chain
02:52even more where, you know, this is like, remember Jay Wright at Villanova wasn't bringing in like
02:56the top five star, five star, five star, but bringing a good basketball players with a great
03:00system and winning. And every year he can sit in your living room like you want to compete for
03:04championships, make it to the NBA. I can do that. And kids go, OK, let's do that.
