Kicks off in 40 minutes. Been a long two years without a tournament. Life is normal again.

Amen! Let’s get it started. After a year off like last year, the first four even feel as exciting as the first round.

Just got my 4 screens all setup and ready to go!  Even watched most of the NIT games last night.  First four + NIT tonight.

Drake blows. Lot of the same issues that plague us. Cross their coach off any list he might be on.

Yes. College wrestling championships on Saturday. Conference championships for college hockey. Favorite time of year!

Graphics look better. Added team logo. They got rid of the grayed out areas next to and below the scorebug, which is nice. That was such a waste of screen real estate.

Agreed.  Production looks good.  Also watching the NIT on ESPN (at the same time) reminds me how much I hate the bottom bar on ESPN games.

First two games have been underwhelming. Hope next two tonight are as well.

Drake and Wichita St. are two teams less deserving of a bid. Drake’s 2nd best win this year is 97th in NET. Someone has to win this game.

I expect Drake to get rolled by USC.  They are essentially missing their two best players.  I'm still happy they won.

Are they?  I had no idea. This was the first time I had seen them and was not at all impressed.

Drake (-2) up 4 with the ball and 13 seconds to play. Turnover, give up three-point shot, missed free throw. Win by 1.
Drake is dead to me

I wasn’t super impressed with them all season, but they went 3-2 down the stretch without them.

Hemphill their star is back, but limited from a broken foot.

I guess their best player played a few mins tonight but  they have another guard who broke his foot.

Drake / Wichita State finish was a thriller.

Maybe it's me but I think EJ, Kenny, and Charles add nothing to the tournament.  They're great for the NBA but I honestly don't get it and haven't for many years.  The CBSSN people are for the most part excellent.

It's not just you. Kenny and Charles don't do any homework.

Has anyone watched Abilene Christian?  I just saw they are only 9 point underdogs to Texas.

Does UCLA have any chance here?  Most think Mich St. is way better.  Would love to see UCLA punk them.
