Saturday game time?

[drewm88]

If we win Thursday, any idea what time we'd play Saturday? Don't they normally keep things in the same order from rounds 1 to 2? In other words, our winner vs. Murray/CSU would be the first Louisville game, and UK vs. UConn/ISU the second?

Beyond that, Murray/CSU tips before anyone else Thursday. Does that automatically mean the first Louisville game will be the first game overall Saturday?

I'm sorry I'm looking ahead, please don't tell Buzz. I have a flight that may need switching if the above is accurate and we take care of business Thursday.

Satruday will be determined by TV.

Wouldn't our game almost certainly start at 11:00am?  I imagine the two start times will be approx 11am and 1:45pm (second game assuming no overtime).

I would imagine for tv Kentucky versus UConn (potentially) would be better for a later game correct?

[Mr. Nielsen]

Sorry, these games would be in primetime!

[MUMac]

If everything goes according to Hoyle, I would guess both games would be pushed by CBS.  Both would have compelling story lines.

Kentucky in opposite game + CBS' 'A' Team = Prime time Saturday.

If it is Kentucky v. UCONN that will be prime time, without a doubt.  That means we would play 2.5 hours before them, so I'm guessing a 5:30 tip or so.

SERIOUSLY!!!

I bet Iona beats BYU then beats MU because we can't shoot the ball as the team hits a historic cold streak this side of the Ice Age. (Can't you tell I hate MU's slow starts?!?)

I think you are right, that would be my guess as well.

I know we shouldn't look ahead, but I'm not actually suiting up this weekend and I think if the team's chances tomorrow are affected by this topic, then we have bigger problems.  Does anyone know what time we will likely Saturday after we beat BYU?  I'm trying to work my schedule around the game since I'll be on the road.  Thanks

Won't be announced until after the Thursday games.  This is a made for TV tournament and TV will dictate the times.  My guess, MU plays at 5:40 or so with Kentucky following at 8:00.  Times are CDT.

The last CBS game is at 6:30 Saturday, so according to most people's guess our game will be at 4.  Last year's primetime game on CBS was BYU (Jimmer) versus Gonzaga.

Ahh, thought they had an 8:00 on Sat. and the last one on Sunday was 6:30.  Thanks for the info.
