I think that's ESPN's way of saying "TBD" based on the number of teams that also have that tip time.

Turner sports PR website should have it first, so I doubt this time.

It's gonna be a long St. Patrick's Day...
Good omen. I go to China in the morning and return home Friday afternoon and was hoping for Friday night. Mission accomplished!!!
Not sure I like a team that will have some nerves waiting around all day to play - feel like early AM woulda been more beneficial but let's get it on!!!!!!'n
Thoughts on Sunday game time? Duke so TV prime game.

Beyond the typical caveats about one game at a time, they won't release that until Saturday probably. Sunday afternoon will pull in an audience, and the other Greenville game will be UNC, so I wouldn't assume anything.
Perfect. Now even with a loss we will technically be in the tournament longer than a bunch of teams.......

My guess is that if it is Marquette v. Duke it will be the first game of the day on CBS.

Kind of odd that the game will be starting close to 10 p.m. EDT.
Love the game time because there is no way I will be completely demoralized during any of the first round games and need to step away from hoops for a few hours.
Nothing worse than getting bounced on Thursday afternoon.

Here's hoping you have wi-fi on your international flight!
Kinda bummed we're in the second game of the session. I was counting on the pro-Wojo support from Duke fans, but I imagine many of them will leave after the Blue Devils win (and especially if they lose).

Actually they might stick around at least for the beginning. If Marquette was the first game, they wouldn't show up until later.
ESPN has it at 8:50pm Friday night, Central Time.

34th place at worst.
Absolute worst possible start time for me...First time back in the tourney and I have to wait until nearly 3:00 AM.

When I was your age, we'd be getting back from Real Chili, and waiting for Lenny's to open at 6.

Personally not a big celebrator of St. Patricks Day. The only time I really celebrated was with my dad like two years ago. We started at like 10:00 AM in downtown Chicago with his friends. Although that being said, if they dont I may make it a point this year to drag my friends out for it.

Ha, I dont party like I did in undergrad. It catches up to me much more than it did and I end up waking up the next morning asking why I drank a much as I did.

Too excited, plus no class tomorrow. Actually I think the time difference may be a hour less for a couple weeks. Did you guys have daylight savings yet?
Joey plays at 6:35 on Friday in a State semifinal. Hauser doubleheader! State tourney streams at wkow.com, so even out of staters can see it.
Worries me a team that has never been there save for Reinhardt is gonna be sitting around all day stewing in their nerves -
Logistically, the start time blows for me to go to the game in person. I'm trying to figure out how to make it work.
I always hated St. Patrick's Day, too. The dive bars I used to go to that everybody else ignored were packed on that one night. Couldn't get my regular barstool, couldn't put my elbows on the bar. In other words, it seriously affected my drunken stuporness.

Stop worrying. You can dream up 1000 things to worry about. It will make you nuts. Embrace it all.
Its not like we're playing some super experienced team. South Carolina, hasnt been in the tourney since 2004.
Anyone watching the game in San Fran?

You beat me to it. SC has made the tournament something like 4 times in 40 years. They will be sitting around just as long as we will. Not a valid excuse at all.
Anybody have any intuition as to what time our game would be if we win and play Duke on Sunday?
It looks like last year, 6 of the 8 Sunday games were after 5pmET. http://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball-men/article/2016-03-08/march-madness-television-schedule-turner-cbs-announce-2016 (http://www.ncaa.com/news/basketball-men/article/2016-03-08/march-madness-television-schedule-turner-cbs-announce-2016)
Really hoping for an afternoon game Sunday should we win Friday. Otherwise I am going to have a super shi*ty fantasy baseball season. Oh well, watching MU beat Duke easily trumps that.

You're not going to get that until late late Friday at the earliest. Too many factors in play. Start prepping your autodraft list.

Times don't come out untill Friday's games are over. That being said, CBS has stand alone games in the day, with TBS, TNT and TruTv with games that night. CBS picks teams that move the needle. Duke and North Carolina are in Greenville. Meaning, Marquette playing Duke will be playing in the afternoon.
