DeShaun Tate joined Thomas Mott and discussed a few performances from the Sweet 16 that stood out to him. He was impressed by Auburn dismantling UNC

"Scoring 97 points on somebody like North Carolina, UNC's one of the best rebounding teams in the country, but none of that will actually matter if Auburn keeps hitting their shots"

DeShaun also was asked which team he'd pick to win it now (besides Duke), and he explained why he liked the Virginia Cavaliers.

"They're winning with their style and this could be a special year for them. They're not gonna get the respect, but they're right there with those other teams."
