That's the classic definition of the south. But I think most people associate anything north of D.C as culturally Northeast nowadays. Maryland and D.C have far more in common with the North today than with the South (see: Northeast Megalopolis as one such example)

As someone who grew up in the Bridgeport area and now lives in Northern Virginia, I can testify to that

I'll root for Creighton today vs Ohio. Sure we're pissed at them but the BEast needs more than just Nova in the Sweet 16.

These games are for conference money , shared by all . Rooting against your conference is pretty self defeating. The Big East as a basketball only conference has been using the tourney as a revenue stream
and we certainly could use the money.
 
I’m actually torn. As much as I hate Mick, it would be awesome if he won the title in his second season and first tournament away from Cincinnati

Creighton taking a lot of midrange shots. A little surprising for that team.

Edit: Ohio is really bad defensively. I think Virginia had some Covid issues to lose to them.
 
If Creighton plays at their ceiling they could give Gonzaga a run for their money.
 
Creighton dominated the latter side of the first half. They look sharp. 15 point lead at the break.
 
Creighton has missed a lot of wide open shots, or this lead could be bigger. I don't get how Ohio won a first round game with a defense this bad.
 
Ohio is screwed. They let CU get a fat lead. That's going to give CU the comfort to start shooting even more 3s and run them out of the gym. Great game so far.

GO CREIGHTON

Because it's Virginia.
 
How did Texas lose to Abilene Christian? UCLA has been pounding them from the beginning. This looks like a 1/16 game.

UVA doesn’t seem to play offense. They won a NC with a bad offensive team (so did we).

Creighton is cruising and that is good. The two Big East teams will get to play the two best teams in the tournament. If Michigan was at full strength they might be in that discussion.

I am bummed that the KU game is so late. Ugh. No morning meetings thank God.

The year they won the national championship Virginia was #2 in the country in offensive efficiency

I wonder what kind of futures you can get on an LSU title that is vacated within 3 years.
Expand ...

Their first round game being vacated is paying 1 to 4.

I am going to have fun with the Big 10 being terrible. Michigan is down 7 to the G league team.

Virginia didn't really practice for the week before the game.

Question: Is LSU the most transparently dirty basketball program of the last 10 years?
 
Colorado tipping off with Florida State, active shooter at Boulder grocery store. Just another day in America.
 
I hate the female announcer. She ruins calls, everything is planned in her head.
 
Ohio is not dead yet. Creighton looks like they are not taking this game seriously.
