They start with Arizona vs UCLA at the Intuit Dome, debating home-court dynamics and lineup strengths, with both leaning toward UCLA as undervalued despite early struggles.

They dive into Clemson vs Georgetown, contrasting KenPom and Torvik projections, critiquing Clemson’s roster turnover, and noting Georgetown’s strong defensive pieces despite awful three-point shooting; Ben likes the under, Griffin leans Georgetown. They preview Houston vs Auburn in Birmingham, emphasizing Houston’s physicality, Auburn’s flawed roster, and questions about Bruce Pearl’s absence, with both expecting Houston to control the matchup.
