What is the main theme of the toasted bracket update?
Can you feel that warmth, guys? It's nice and toasty in here. It is time for our toasted bracket update, sponsored by Jimmy John's. And they're finally here, guys, and they're hot. Try the new toasted sandwiches at Jimmy John's. Order one today. How warm is it in here? It's a little too warm. I'm in a sweater. Probably shouldn't have worn a sweater for this toasted segment.
It is getting a little toasty.
But I'm excited because I filled out my bracket yesterday. Oh, you did? And I have two one seeds. Let's go around the room because everyone's afraid of chalk. I got two one seeds in my final four.
How are participants filling out their brackets?
Jeremy, how's your final four looking? I have three one seeds, I believe. I know the big upset that I have early, like when you're looking for what's going to change. In the, which side of the bracket is this? I'm not entirely sure. Oh, it's the south. So Auburn is the one seed in the south. And they've lost three out of their last four games going into March Madness. Creighton. is a nine seed so they would play auburn in the second round creighton has a seven foot one center named ryan cockbrenner love him who is a four-time big east defensive player of the year i believe patrick ewing is the other player to have done that four times so you got a senior seven foot one center who can really disrupt things defensively to me that's the perfect type of team to look at and go
Who is a potential upset team in March Madness?
That can mess with some people. So Creighton making a fun little run as a nine seed is where if you want to get kooky and knock off a one seed in the second round, that might be the way to do it.
We're not trying to get kooky. We're getting toasty.
I'm going to take my sweater off. But Jimmy John's cookies are actually really delicious.
True.
I love Jimmy John's.
Greg, you feeling toasty? I am. I'm wearing a zip line or whatever you call these. It's a quarter zip.
No, it's a zip line.
Quarter zip. Is this a sweatshirt? I don't even know the word for this. No, it's a zip line.
A zip line.
A zip line? Yeah. I haven't filled out a bracket yet. All right.
Thanks for participating, Jess. Do you do the play-in games, Greg, when you do? You do the first four, or do you start, like, your bracket starts with, like, the winners are just plugged in? Yes.
I start with when the 64 begin playing. I'm thinking of not filling out a bracket in memoriam for Miami Hurricanes basketball, which doesn't have either team in the NCAA.
Jimmy Johns wouldn't love that, but I'm glad that you're taking a stand on that.
What are the predictions for the women's bracket?
That's not toasty. I will fill out a bracket. Okay, good.
Are there sleeper teams to watch out for?
I haven't filled out a men's bracket yet, but I have filled out my women's bracket. It's very chalky, except for UConn upsetting USC in the lower left quadrant. But when I fill out my men's bracket, I imagine I'm just going to go straight chalk because I don't know what I'm doing.
You can go Jay Williams and have all ones and two seeds in the Elite Eight.
Zagak.
Listen to the underdogs. They gave us five sleepers that you could pick.
Pick Wofford in my final four.
Yeah. The Terriers?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
You've got to take an 11 to beat an 8, right? As we mentioned earlier. Six. If an 11 played an 8, that would be probably... It would be later in the round, probably. Super helpful in this segment so far. I've got all the 16s beating all the ones. I don't know if I'm alone on that, but it's just a hunch. Yeah. I also have the Dodgers finishing 162-0. Wow.
I don't know about you guys. I know you're all college sports fans, but I am a big college sports fan, and I find it really hard to pick teams that I don't like to do well. So I kind of sometimes will just make a haters bracket and just root for the downfall of all of my haters.
Right, like I had Florida going far, and then I was just like, what am I doing?
Ew, I don't want that.
Get out of here, Florida.
Oh, USC in my Final Four.
I don't want Ethan to be happy. Ethan Badowski's Gators. If you were to kind of do like a scale, Your sports fandom, like what percentage is love and what percentage is based off of hate? That's a good question.
