I think boom boom, so we there? You feel me? We there? So let me let me take Anthony Anthony Lamar down and then let me see if I can maximize my screen or do I leave myself. I can leave myself up in the corner. It don't make that big of a difference. And I'm gonna go through and I'm gonna select my bracket and literally fill out. This is gonna be my official bracket for the actual for the actual bracketology. So y'all be sure that once again, if you make it in time. Once again, it closes out at I believe it at twelve o'clock PM. So you have about what is it officially you have two minutes and thirty seven minutesan excuse me, two hours and thirty seven minutes and twenty five seconds to get your your brackets submitted. So let me let me start. And I don't have the. This is not I don't have the official schedules of the day's games. I think I'll just I usually come in and I start in a different regions. I think I'm gonna start today. I'm gonna start in the Midwest because the mid and West is the best. You hear me. So the first game I think we have it's this University of Houston versus Southern Illinois University East. I believe that is or that I don't know if that's East or if that's I think that's East. But anyway, University of Houston is gonna smack them around. So we're gonna, we're gonna, We're gonna get that out the way. Now, this is a difficult. The next matchup is a first round matchup is Gonzaga versus the Georgia Bulldogs. I think this is gonna be a very difficult game to call because it's an eight nine matchup. I've watched Gonzaga a couple of times during the year, and it's it's like they have a few different teams that show up, man, and I'm not sure which Gonzaga team is gonna show up. It's tournament time and we know so the Zags always show up in tournament time, and they usually, you know, they usually Gonzaga is a is a we're used to seeing Gonzaga. Uh, Georgia had a rough and tumble year. This year. They are coming out of the SEC. Though they got a lot of they played a lot of good basketball in the SEC. I think the level of competition is that in the SEC is a little bit different from Gonzaga's conference. What is the Gonzaga and they in the Big West? I can't what are they? What's the conference is gonzag game? I can't remember. I don't even know if it's called the Big West. I don't know what that ship. I need Callie Nick and he got the College Sports on lock. I'm gonna go with in this this first round. Man, it's a hard one. Man. I'm gonna go with the Georgia Bulldogs. Man, I'm gonna go with the Georgia Bulldogs over Gonzaga in the first round. Man, We're gonna see Gonzaga go out in the first round this year. Man. Then the second game, we got Clemson versus mcnee's steak. I'm gonna pull I'm gonna pull Clemson all up out of there. So that's number five versus twelve. We got a Perdue versus I think that's high point? Is that? What H is that? What H high pt stands for? Anyway, we're gonna get Purdue over there. I don't even know who the hell they are this last night we did see Xavier with their big win over over Texas. Xavier can get it rolling. Man, they are playing Illinois. I think they're gonna be outgunned by Illinois. But Xavier, Man, they show up in tournament time too. If there was gonna be an upset in the first round, I think this one might be it. I think this one might be it. Man, Xavier versus the Ali and I, Man, this is difficult. Man, I should have already had this picked out. Now. I look like a I look like a jackwag. And Charles d was good with you, man, West Coast Conference, I said, big West, it's the West Coast Conference. He said, well, he working Charles d. Come over to the Come over and join our bracket too, Bro, if you get a chance, or you you already in there, you might already be in there. Yeah, Ab said, gone to get with Xavier. Man some Ohio love. Man. You see, Man, you had to pull that Ohio ship. You had to put that Ohio shit on me. Man. I'm taking Xavier, Man, I'm taking Xavier over over them, just because it's Ohio versus everybody. UK versus Troy Man, I got UK, even though this UK team is a little they a little trippy. U see La versus Utah. I think this is gonna be another pinnacle matchup. Man, that's seven. That's seven versus ten. I've seen Utah play a couple of times. I've seen UCLA play a couple of times as well. I'm gonna go with U c l A. And then Tennessee versus Watford. I think that's Watford. Yeah, I'm going Tennessee. Man, I'm going Tennessee. All right. So that's the Midwest. Midwest is the best we got. We got through round one or do I or do I go? Man, I'm gone head on and work it on through. Nah, I'm gonna do my way. I'm gonna do it my way. So over here, we got number one Florida versus Norfolk State. I saw ab send a big shout out to Norfolk State, man, and shout out to them for making it. But they asked us going home in that first round. Bro, We're gonna get them out of there. Yukon versus Oklahoma, Yukon defending defending national champion. If I ain't mistaken, tournament time is when they gonna shine. They do have a first round versus a rough and tumble Oklahoma team. Man, But you know I ain't. I'm not. I can't pick the Sooners, man, I'm going with. I'm going with Yukon Memphis. Listen to me, Memphis is gonna be my team. Man, is gonna I think Memphis is gonna shake shit up. They play Colorado State first round. Man, I'm going with with the great Penny Hardaway and the Memphis Tigers used to be poor like Penny, not Anthrony. But Janet, you've hear me. We got Maryland versus I don't even know who GCU is. Who is GCU grand I don't know who GCU is, but I know I've watched Maryland play a few times, and they got that freshman, the big boy freshman that I like to see. Man, I also want to see them versus Penny and the big boy Penny them got in that second round in the second round games. Of course I want to see that. So Sammy up for that. I'm going Maryland over GCU. We got Missouri over Drake. This is a tricky one. This is a tricky one. I've seen Missouri a couple of times. Man, I've seen Drake, I think play once, but it wasn't it was it was a conference game, so I can't quite remember. I'm low key. I'm low key. I'm low key favoring Drake in this one. I'm low key for favoring Drake in this one. Man, I think I think if they let me see what y'all saying, man Ab said, Norfolk State is hungry. You feel me? Manari Mahari Maharty Nation Sports Podcast. What's up with you? Bro? He said, good morning, junior, we finally got some basketball talk. Yeah, somebody gotta do it because you don't somebody gotta do it, because you don't, Bro, you do more.

Who you got Missouri versus Drake Man, I ain't messing with Drake Bro. I don't even like the name Drake. We're gonna go Missouri, Texas Tech versus North Carolina Line of Wilmington. Man, We're gonna go Texas Tech. Kansas versus Arkansas. This one's gonna be tricky, y'all. This one's gonna be tricky. That's seven versus that ten. I know it's I know it'd be about the Kansas Jayhawks in March. Man, this one's gonna be tricky, though. This one gonna be tricky because Kansas. Man, I've seen Kansas look really good, and then I've seen then I've seen Kansas look like looked like trash man and my Bubba Dove voice trash. You feel me, man, I think Arkansas might edge on, y'all. I'm not playing. I think Arkansas might might. I think Arkansas might scrap them up unless Kansas is just gone for man, Kansas is stay too big too. I'm going with camp. I really want to go with Arkansas. Let me take that back. Man.

We did Florida, we did Yu Khon, we did Memphis used to be poor like Penny. We did Maryland. I can't wait till that Memphis versus Maryland match up, y'all. I think that'd be.
