Night Game Thursday?

They mentioned they don't like to schedule an early second round game for the play-in-teams.

Hopefully that's the case.  Then I don't have to worry about finding out how to watch at work.

Kentucky is going up against a play in game winner too.

Clemson(play in team) played WVU in the very first game of the tourney last year(second round that is)

But, I know the 3/14 match up is usually a late game on thursdays. We are in the "west" bracket and might play BYU so Id imagine night game.

I don't think they set it up that way.  I think the other game in our session has to be Murray State/Colorado State.

Yep- that's why it will be a night game this time

Was just thinking that...not sure they would put MSu and UK in the same session. UK almost certainly will be at night, so I'd bet money we will play in the day session?

Hoping it's at night.  Otherwise I have to cancel a couple meetings.  Not that people should be scheduling anything on Thursday or Friday to begin with.

That's what I would assume to appease the home state fans, but I don't know how big a factor that is when deciding.

They said on CBS that the NCAA has requested the play in winners not play in the early sessions.   They speculated it would be the evening.  I don't believe that is a requirement, but a request.  That said, I would be shocked to not see it be in the evening.  Unless CBS desperately wants UK to be in the evening for TV purposes.  I doubt, though, a 1/16 match-up is going to be their highlight game.

wednesday night, you take him to a strip club and get him laid.  then you tell the old lady.  poof, you have a free weekend to watch basketball.

[4everwarriors]

Or you skip the game citing a family wedding and try sellin' your tickets.
