00:00We'll begin by talking about the Duke meltdown.
00:03Houston beat them 70 to 67 on Saturday night.
00:07Fifth largest comeback in Final Four history.
00:10So they were down 14 with 8.03 to go.
00:14They were down nine with 2.06 to go.
00:16They were down six with 34 seconds to go.
00:19They were down three with 25 seconds to go.
00:22They were down one with 19 seconds to go.
00:26And yet they still found a way on Westwood One Sports.
00:31Cryer's second free throw is good.
00:33Three point game, 70 to 69.
00:35Houston by three, 3.7 to go.
00:38Everybody runs down the floor.
00:40James, long pass down the floor.
00:43Cryer tips it, loose.
00:45Knipple has it.
00:46Throws to Proctor.
00:47Heaves up a three.
00:48No good.
00:50Houston from behind, 14 down to the national championship game.
00:58And for the first time since 1984,
01:03Houston will play for a men's basketball national
01:06championship.
01:08Am I tripping?
01:09That dude said it was 70 to 69.
01:11Like, I'm not tripping.
01:13So anyway, 70 to 67.
01:17They missed the shot.
01:19Flag missed the shot.
01:21And that was that, right?
01:22So all I know is, I'll still say it.
01:27I have never seen anything like Indiana coming back from 13
01:32down with three minutes to go.
01:34Now, you got to remember, like, they did this.
01:36They were down 14 with eight minutes to go.
01:39Imagine being down 13 in a title game, not a semifinal,
01:45in the championship game, down 13 with three minutes to go.
01:48And you win.
01:49That is insanity.
01:52So nothing will ever top that for me.
01:55Although I will say, I thought that Saturday night,
01:59that was an epic meltdown.
02:01Like, I couldn't believe my eyes.
02:04I was sitting there just going, is this even possible?
02:08What is happening here?
02:09They couldn't hit a shot to save their ass.
02:12It was just unbelievable to me.
02:15And then when I watched the other one, I guess,
02:19the only way I could describe it, Mike, was I was there.
02:22So it was different.
02:24I was sitting on the sideline at the scorer's table.
02:28I was, you know, they had, like, back then they had,
02:31I guess they still do, like, two or three rows
02:32right at the scorer's table of media, right?
02:35So I was sitting right there when I watched Indiana chip
02:38away at this lead by Syracuse,
02:40and they did it with a lot of Syracuse missed field goals,
02:43or free throws.
02:46In the end, like, Cyclie Coleman could,
02:48Coleman missed the front end of the one-and-one.
02:50Derek Coleman, that led to them getting the ball
02:52and going down and having the final possession.
02:54Albert and Thomas, Thomas, the smart,
02:56smart hits the baseline, Popper, and that was it.
02:59I still will stand by that game as the greatest comeback
03:03I've ever seen in my life, down 13 with three minutes to go.
03:06This, to me, was an eight-minute to 10-minute meltdown
03:11of epic proportions, but it was a lot longer to me.
03:16So it wasn't as crazy.
03:17To me, this was like, okay, they can't make a shot.
03:20And then I was like, okay, they still haven't made a shot.
03:24And then I was like, okay,
03:26they're not gonna blow this, are they?
03:27And then I was like, okay, they lose.
03:30I'm like, you gotta be kidding me.
03:34I couldn't believe it.
03:35They made one field goal over the last 10 and a half minutes
03:37of the game, and I, how about this?
03:41So I, you know, I was worried about that number,
03:43that five and four and a half, five and a half,
03:46laying it with them.
03:47So I ended up playing the Duke team total over 72 and a half.
03:53So you just think about that.
03:54I think you had 56 with 10 minutes to go,
03:56and I'm going, I'm in great shape here.
03:59And then they don't, they made one bucket
04:02the rest of the way.
04:04Loser, 67 points.
04:06No good.
04:07I didn't get that one.
04:08I thought Houston, they had played them to three.
04:10I hit the five points.
04:11I got both winners wrong,
04:13because I bet Auburn and Duke to win,
04:16and I bet Houston plus five.
04:18So this game tonight is not what I wanted to see.
