I'm with the nerd. Amazing start to the tourney. You've usually got at least one blowout by this point. The only one we've seen is that play-in with a UAB team that didn't really seem to belong anyway.

Just hope we are on the right side of a Buzz/buzzer beater this trip. Better yet let's win comfortably

Does a close game play to marquette's favor ? considering we have played so many of them

Now if Hummer from Princeton actually played for Morehead St, that would be incredible.

The announcer during the West Virginia made a salt and pepper joke at the end after pepper's 3 steals to clinch the game.  i found that pretty funny cause the other announcer called him out on it

Truthfully the down year of quality in this years teams should make for exciting tourney. Not sure after this weekend if any chalk games out there.

Parity means almost anyone can beat anyone early...and top 8 seeds who have easier opponents stand a good chance of only one weekend of tough play, to reach the F4. I only pick multiple upsets in round 1, only 1 in round 2 and go with seedings thereafter, on at least a 80% clip. Cant pretend to have seen the UL loss, though-- a stunning surprise.
 I had Richmond though. Next up-- Wofford over BYU, and Belmont over UW (maybe rooting--not logic). Of course MU over Xavier (Id,)
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

My youngest two kids go to Catholic Memorial and two alums played today. T.J. Brey (Princeton) and Connor Smith (Richmond) both were at big dance. If two white kids from Waukesha county does not prove parity I don't know what does.

Sounds like the makings of a tradition

First round of games was fantastic. Second batch has sucked so far. I can barely stay awake watching these snoozers.

Yeah, really strange how this worked out.  Bigtime blowouts in the evening and the Belmont team that everyone was talking about, they were terrible.

Uh, yeah, this isn't that out of the ordinary for the NCAA tournament.
