I think you wear a blazer every time that you're on the show, aren't you? On this network, yes. I wear golf shirts mostly, though. Okay. All right. You take this one a little bit more seriously.

But, you know, working from home as its privileges. We're wearing shorts here, yes. I wear golf shirts mostly, though. Okay. All right. You take this one a little bit more seriously. But, you know, working from home as its privileges, we're wearing shorts here too. Let's begin with the women's final four tomorrow. You've tracked the stuff, watch it, bet on it the entire year. Your buddy had the same thing, right? What did you make of Yukon opening up? And the number really hasn't moved. There's six and a half against South Carolina tomorrow. Yeah, I'm much more immersed in WMBA. I've gradually gotten into the women's college hoops just because of my partner who models at all is so good. So I've had the clean wisdom, and then I end up watching the games. And obviously, I've been doing this for a while. I really need to tweet out my screenshot, text him in the first quarter when I said, these rims look tight. And then later, Gino had the diet, you know, rant about the tight rims. I'm like, okay, I kind of know what I'm doing with sometimes. I haven't been thoroughly impressed with Yukon. It's really hard to evaluate the Huskies because of the Big East is so down, right? Just trucking teams left and right. But I will say they manhandled Tennessee. They spanked USC when USC was like 15 team in the country, but we learned later, the Trojans aren't that good, incredibly unreliable and just don't have any sort of talent around Jazzy Davidson. I also thought their best win was the first game of the year against Louisville.

So they've answered the challenges.

They just haven't had a lot of them.

And you look at the last two games where they've played certain teams.

They haven't covered those big numbers.

It's just sort of a different animal.

They press and they smother you.

And against inferior competition, like some of the big East, they can just steamroll you. But against a competent team that has a good point guard, like some of the opponents, the last couple rounds, it's really hard to just boat race and cover big numbers. But this is a different animal. Like, I don't care what they are at. Yes. You're laying six and a half, very different than laying 30 against Villanova or something, right? It's just a different animal. We know that from college hoops. So in this case, with South Carolina, I've been kind of down on them all year, fairly unimpressed, all things considered. They don't have an explosive offense until the last game. I've been impressed.

They're resilient and they're kind of one of those teams that just takes out a leg and leans on you and eventually gets you.

I think Yukon ultimately covers, but I'm not in a rush to the window to bet it.

I do think Sarah Strong is by far the best player on the court and AZ Fudd is going to be the second best player on the court. And I just think Gino is great. Not that Don Staley's not, but I just think I think that's a short enough number that I'd lay it. Okay. Do you have a stronger opinion on Texas, UCLA, which is the late game, I believe? I do. So the Bruins only have one loss this year, and that came on Thanksgiving here in Las Vegas against Texas. And both teams are really different. The key for Texas is that they don't need to double team Lauren Betts, who's six foot seven center for the Bruins. She might be the number one pick. If not, she's going to be the number two pick in the draft. And they have a six foot six center who can kind of hold her own, right?

Not shut her down, but hold her own.
