Incident made a minor legend. Nothing compared to my brother who ran for 2800 yards as a senior.

I have no clue how North Carolina made the tournament. Probably the biggest miss.

AD at UNC is the Chair of the Selection Committee. Nothing to see here.

Has to be the reason. It's the only explanation.

UConn might be the most picked 8 seed to win an 8-9 game in history of the tournament

Gauging the chat, if I set up an ESPN Tournament Challenge for OTF OG's would that be something of interest?

I can get it going in the next hour, if so.

I am in.

Vegas has Xavier favored to win the game by 3.5 

Hour and a half away from the first play-in game.

Rocking with Alabama State and North Carolina tonight.

And UNC gets the worst offensive team in the field ... SDSU ... 70.9 ppg, 66% at FT line and woeful from three. 

Oh my goodness what a game in the first play-in game. That was heartbreaking. That was unbelievable.

Tremendous basketball.

Can't say I'm surprised with how UNC-SDSU has played out. Heels currently have a 33-point lead. This one has been over for a while.

It's market March madness. I wish goobers would stop obsessing over the Fed. Fed's doing its job. Very little to do with true market forces. Should raise the rate and squash any hint of inflation. Got nothing to do with Nvidia or the future of any market performance. 

Treed four in three hours tonight. Wolf getting in shape. They running even though it's windy.

When we played at Hugh Springs and Avinger in summer league, they played "Basketball" by Kurtis Blow in the warm ups, even though the song was dated by that time. You couldn't dunk in pre-game in a regular high school game because they'd give you a tech for it. Summer league you could whatever. Guys were doing everything they could when that song played in summer league. I'd dribble bounce it off the floor for a 3/4 alley-oop dunk when that song was playing. Made a couple of Hugh Springs boys upset for some reason, even though they were dunking themselves. 

Good breakdown.

I am at the point of paralysis by analysis on my bracket. Brain is broken.

A gorgeous start to the over 128 in the American and Mount Saint Mary's game. I love this sport.

Stop it!

Let the games begin!

Louisville & Creighton o145 first game! Good luck, everyone.

The only 1 seed to get a truly favorable location the first weekend is Duke, of course.  It plays in Raleigh.  Florida also has to play in Raleigh against Norfolk State, a school just 150 miles away.  Not backyard for Norfolk State by any means, but far from friendly for Florida.

Alabama gets a first round game in Cleveland against a team from a little over 100 miles away.  But Cleveland hates all things Pittsburgh, so maybe Robert Morris from Moon Township won't get a bump.

 

 

Creighton missing some good looks early on.

How old can you be before being called 'Chucky' becomes weird?

This is going to be fun 

Smart timeout by Kelsey.

Execution of play after the timeout?  Not so good.

High Point HUCKS from deep.

Immediately after passing halfcourt, that ball is in the air.
