Lastly, Yukon's stunning Duke on a last second three in one of the more incredible plays we've seen in recent NCAA tournament.

0:05.4

That was unfreaking believable.

0:08.8

Yeah, that's end-of-game planning by Shire that he didn't do well enough.

0:14.2

Yeah, I mean, I thought with about, because I think Boozer has the basketball with the doubleheading his way after three passes with about seven seconds to go. Take the foul. Yes. Because they're going to foul you and you have a two-point lead. And I know that there's this video of Shire saying, throw it up court. It's too risky. And then look, obviously, that's what they tried to do, by the way. I wouldn't have done it. Just take the foul. If you're

0:37.6

going to get it up court and they're jumping, they got tipped, bounce past it. Yeah, wow. I'm just tell you, they were all five of Yukon's players are basically at half court into the back court. Yeah. There was nobody in the front court. All you had to do is roll the ball to one of the Duke Blue Devils, there were two.

0:54.8

They were completely unmarked.

0:56.5

Game is over if you just don't had to do is roll the ball to one of the Duke Blue Devils. There were two. They were

0:55.1

completely unmarked. Game is over if you just don't do what you did. You know the crazy

0:59.6

thing I always like to think about in situations like this. If you are boozer, you take the

1:04.4

basketball and you slam, you throw it at the two defenders. It'll bounce off their leg. It'll stop the clock and you basically

1:12.3

start over. You know what I mean? I've always thought about that. And then let's say you miss. Well, if you miss, where's the basketball going to go? But incredible shot by Braylin Mullins. That's, you know, the other part of it. Like, you can turn the ball over, but then you need to hit a 35 footer, which Mullins did. That was an unbelievable ending.

1:44.8

I hate both schools, so I don't know what I was rooting for. I was rooting for Yukon once it happened. Yeah, I was fine with it. Dude, I went to UVA. No, that's true. We hate Duke. I'm tired of Duke. In both their teams, men and women lost on basic buzzer-beaters at the end. So it was good to see Duke eliminate it.

1:46.6

So go Yukon.

1:47.5

Go you con. Yes. More on that. Coming up, some final thoughts on St. John's season as well. We'll get your calls 888-808-101-19. And the surprising thing Bobichette said after the game, he admitted something that you rarely hear players admit. Let's get to some of your calls.

2:01.4

We'll kick it off with Chris in Belleville.

2:02.8

What's up, Chris?

2:04.8

Hey, what's up, guys?

2:05.9

It's good.

2:07.6

So here's my observation from the games I watched over the weekend, the replays that I've

2:14.2

seen, the insanity of posts that I saw on social media.

2:17.7

So the challenge system that we have in baseball now, it's cute that they have it, right?

2:23.5

But we're acknowledging, we're basically acknowledging that we can get every single pitch correctly now if we wanted to, which we should.
