The five-star zone with Rico Beard.

Welcome to a sweet 16 version of the five-star zone.

I'm your host, Rico Beer, Harold Shelton, from the Big Ten Network,

senior research manager joining us.

As usual, Harold, it's that time.

Everybody from the Big Ten, well, we separated.

It looked great. First well, we separated.

It looked great.

First round, everybody won.

But now there's four teams from the Big Ten in the Sweet 16, which in most years you would be like, okay, you got a quarter of the Big Team.

Quarter of the Sweet 16, that's good, except for the SEC damn near has half of it.

They got seven teams in there.

So really, this turns into a Big Ten SEC challenge aside from Purdue and Houston.

But when you look at these teams, what stood out from you over this past weekend?

I guess overall, you know, I thought the league did pretty well, you know, to start eight and

no. I know they were the higher seeded most of those, but, you know, they covered the spread

in all eight of those first round games, so they did it pretty convincingly. I thought there

were chances to get six. I really did. You know, Wisconsin,

despite being down that whole game against BYU, you look like they had a shot to win it at the end.

And, you know, Tanya kind of forced one there and came up a little short. And then Oregon had that

big lead early, gave it all back, but still had a chance to tie it in the last minute.

You know, unfortunately, it wasn't one of their two best players taking that shot.
