And we are back, folks, here on the Big 1050WTCA online at the big 1050.com.

0:06.0

We were doing the roundtable yesterday.

0:09.0

And Seth Fisher was talking about Hawaii being a problem for Wisconsin.

0:15.7

High point.

0:16.8

No, he said Hawaii.

0:18.1

Oh, Hawaii.

0:18.4

Because, yeah, Hawaii's playing Arkansas.

0:20.1

Right.

0:20.1

Yeah.

0:20.4

You can say high point was going to be a problem for Wisconsin? He's like, oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I mixed it up. Hawaii's not playing Wisconsin. No, I don't have a high point. It's like, hey, I can't. Wisconsin is going to be a problem for Arizona. Wisconsin is a real threat. If they had a higher seat and they didn't have to face like a one seed in the sweet 16, man, they'd be a real threat to go really far in the tournament.

0:43.8

Ira, they were out the first day.

0:46.3

They were the first big upset of the tournament.

0:49.0

They go down to high point.

0:51.1

And their coach afterwards was like, yeah, nobody wanted to play us.

0:55.0

This is why. You know, Sam, I was as bullish on Wisconsin as you were. I did say to you, I think it was yesterday in the morning on the show. It could have been the day before, but I think it was yesterday when I said, High Point does shoot the ball really well. And if they shoot the ball well from the outside, they're going to make it a closer game. but I expect it was constant to play like a little bit of defense,

1:13.0

especially maybe down the stretch and if they shoot the ball well from the outside they're going to make it a closer game. But I expect it was constant to play like a little bit of defense, especially maybe down the stretch and said they give a runout with like 10 seconds to go and they lose the game. They deserve to lose. Yeah, well, one of the high point players are forgive me for not knowing their names. But they were talking to them after halftime. And they're like, hey, you know, you're playing with Wisconsin. What you got to do? He's like, well, we got better athletes than them. We got better athletes to them. We got a, you know, we got to play to our athleticism against these guys. It was like, you know, that is the way to mitigate their front court, which they are really good shooters,

1:48.0

but they don't have a lot of athleticism in the front court.

1:54.7

It puts way more pressure on their back court, and it was just turned out to be too much pressure for them to bear as, you know, they were trading shots.

1:58.5

You don't expect to be in a situation where you trade shots with high point.

2:01.8

And the next thing you know, you know, you got a case where Nick Boyd is driving at the end of the game trying to make a play.

2:08.3
