0:40.1

it was an interesting Saturday afternoon in Atlanta. Carolina pulls out the 71 70 win of

0:45.2

Ohio State. And when I say pulls it out, they certainly did that late. Your overall thoughts.

0:51.7

We all knew they were going to win that game. Everyone watching at home never had a

0:56.5

shredded of doubt. Everyone knew they were going to win. Know it. I mean, the bottom line,

1:01.2

you start with a net result. It's another great victory or very good victory if you want to

1:07.1

parse it a little bit. I think it's going to be a Q1 by the end of the year.

1:13.5

Ohio State isn't an elite team, they're a good team.

1:54.5

Yes, the final offensive possession was a little lucky.

1:58.5

But give them credit for that last defensive possession because Ohio State

2:01.7

had four and a half seconds. And Carolina read their stuff. You could tell Thornton was confused.

2:07.6

They took a horrible shot. And so that was what they needed to close it out. And there was no luck

2:12.3

there. That was just really good defense. Yeah, I thought, you know, my thing, when there's five seconds left or whatever,
