Nicole Auerbach: DJ Burns is why we love March Madness

The Athletic’s Nicole Auerbach and guest host Kirk Morrison discuss the anticipation for the Caitlin Clark/Iowa Elite 8 rematch against LSU, DJ Burns Jr. leading North Carolina State to the Final Four, the chances Dan Hurley’s UConn Huskies can repeat as national champions, and whether or not Purdue’s Zach Edey and the Boilermakers have a chance to cut down the nets a week from now.

In ‘Overreaction Monday’ Kirk weighs in on the NFL Draft QB intrigue, Jake Bates’ amazing 64-yard FG in a UFL game, the Dallas Mavericks NBA Playoffs outlook, if Joel Embiid should come back to the 76ers this season, Juan Soto’s chances to lead the Yankees to the World Series, and the much anticipated Zach Edey vs DJ Burns Jr. Final Four showdown.

Kirk runs through what has impressed him most and least from the first week in Major League Baseball.
