Sry OP did not see this thread when I started firing off a few game threads. Good luck to Vagina today.

Normally if day one is awesome then day two sucks or vice versa. Hope that doesn’t hold true today.
 
Oregon State and Rutgers won their first NCAAT games since 1982 and 1983 respectively. Congrats to both programs for ending that long streak.

Nebraska is the only member of a power conference who has never won an NCAAT game.

Alright CBS, we get it. Patrick Ewing used to play at Georgetown and now he's coaching at Georgetown
 
My mom is kicking everyone's ass in our office pool and probably here as well. She got 14/16 correct yesterday. Only missed on Ohio State who she had winning one more game and Clemson who she had losing the next game.

She went to Illinois and probably hasn't watched a CBB game since Illinois was in the title game in 2005.
 
How long have you been in Alaska? Pros? Cons?
Three years this time. Lived here three years in the 90’s

Pros: beauty scenery. Amazing hunting and fishing. The people tend to be ‘social distancing’ (read: they keep to themselves). Youget a dividend check every year (every resident does). Last year it was $992 this year they are talking about $5000. It all depends on how much the permanent fund made on its investments.
Cons: it snows a lot. Winter is 8 months long. If you live in the interior it gets cold (-60 wind chill) and hot and humid in the summer (temps will reach 95+). It’s expensive. Eating out at restaurants is easily $50 a plate with no alcohol, and this isn’t Ruth Criss type restaurants. In my town a burger, fries, and a drink after tax and tip is $30. Grocery stores are expensive too. Milk is $4, perishables like fruits vegetables and bread is at least a buck or more per item.
I love it here. also weed is legal so you can party with the hop god.
 
Looks like KU is back in control, while Florida State is suddenly in a close game against UNCG. Interesting.
 
Goaltending call on a layup that hit the rim first and clearly wasn't going in. 🤣
 
FSU can't lose to UNCG, can they? UNCG's offense is sooo bad.... just stop turning the ball over, and they should win by 10+

Eastern Washington up 41-33 with 2:38 left. Goodness.
 
If Eastern Wins, there is a very good possibility that the West goes undefeated in the first round except for the UCLA vs BYU game.

Pac-12 has performed remarkably well.

Just got UCSB, UCLA/BYU, Gonzaga, Oregon, and USC, IIRC.

What about Utah State and San Diego State?

Eastern Washington aint an upset minded team, they couldnt even beat John Thompson's Georgetown in 2015 which had lost to double digit seeds 5 times in a row(2008, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, Georgetown didnt make tournament appearances in 2009 and 2014). Still cant imagine KU is losing to this team that even the worst choke artist JT3 managed to beat.
