I feel like everybody's hot on UC San Diego. The other thing, they haven't played a power conference team, and that's why I'm worried about that because it feels like McNeese last year. You remember McNeese State last year? They were the hottest team in the country. They lost by a billion. And then I looked at their schedule.

They have literally not played anybody that has a center that's taller than 6'8".

Your point about Minnesota, I think that matters. I want to see these smaller schools having played. Just get a taste for it. Get punched in the mouth. Have to go up against a defense, even if they're not the best team in the world. You're actually being guarded by a 6'6 guard out there versus playing in the Ivy League and dealing with a smaller and less athletic dude.

I think New Mexico, when I look at this region, the first-round game I'm most excited for is New Mexico-Marquette. I think Donovan Dent versus Cam Jones is going to be fucking insane to watch. I think both those guys could score 35 points in this game. It'll be up and down, and I'll love it. I don't care who wins, but that's an upset, I guess. New Mexico beating Marquette, that has my attention.

Give me your overall vibe reading on Michigan State and Tom Izzo heading in. This specific Michigan State, does this feel like a quintessential Tom Izzo and March-type Michigan State team? Does this feel like maybe they've been punching above their weight class, so to speak?

Because I'll be honest, after the Champions Classic, I thought Michigan State was going to be in jeopardy of missing the tournament. I was like, this team just doesn't have a ton of talent. I felt like last year's team was like a nine seed, if I remember right.
