It’s a brand new edition of the nation’s college basketball<\/a> show and we’ve officially hit the it’s best month, March! Host T.J. Rives returns with guest to discuss the home stretch of the regular season and the beginnings of conference tournament play on the newest “College Basketball Coast to Coast!”<\/strong><\/p>\n

First, he welcomes back Chris Dobbertean of BloggingTheBracket.com to go over Chris’ latest top seeds and who’s on the 2 and 3 lines for the field of 68? Chris in particular says the 4-6 seed lines are an even bigger mess with more jumbling to come over the next 10-12 days of action.

The guys then play some “Who’s in Who’s Out?” with schools like Arizona State, Clemson, Michigan,<\/strong> Nevada, North Carolina<\/strong> and Memphis. Chris has his insight on who’s safely in, who’s in the “First Four” right now in Dayton and more importantly, whom, for the moment, is left out?<\/p>\n

ESPN Analyst With More Insight<\/h2>\n

Finally, T.J. welcomes ESPN game analyst Mark Adams, who’s worked several Houston Cougar battles over the last couple of months, including recently. Mark has great insight on why coach Kelvin Sampson’s<\/strong> team looks like a Final Four contender and what players to watch for from the Cougars.<\/p>\n

Mark also just worked Sunday’s Memphis-Cincinnati game on ESPN<\/a> and makes the case for the Tigers to make the big dance with Kendric Davis and DeAndre Williams leading them. Does Mark thing that Memphis is in right now or still need to beat Houston in the regular season finale?<\/p>\n
