March Madness Round 1 Thread

I picked VCU like many others but they look overmatched by Carolina, even without Wilson.

Carolina usually loses focus and allows a run, but you’re right early on that size is too much for VCU.
 
With BYU's injuries Texas probably has more overall talent, not a bad draw for them as a play-in

So in High Point's win over Wisc.... the guy who hit the game winning layup on the break had hit 68 three's this season and zero two point buckets.

My son texted me that after the game. That is a crazy stat. How does that happen? You figure at least once someone would see him open cutting to the basket. Does he just sit out on the 3 point line and never move?

He shoots 50% from 3 so rarely even attempts any other shot.
 
Michigan is not exactly clobbering Howard. So much for the supposed dominance of these 1 seeds.

Yikes, you guys were not lying, 5 players, 40 minutes. Not a single bench minute. Wow, really impressed by this team. Hope they can make it again next year. Duke is not much deeper; just 12 total players saw the floor. Wonder if that is some kind of record.

Maybe those kids follow McNamara if he leaves, and if it's to cuse, they could have a very good season in the acc

I didn't get to see much of the the game other than the obvious no calls on boozer but if those 5 kids played 40 minutes each and led most of the game and managed to not foul out, either they are outright amazing or duke is bad

Michigan is inevitably going to pull ahead, but giving up 46 to Howard at half is bad. 1 seeds are looking beatable so far. Going to be interesting watching the 1 vs. 8/9 games this weekend, I won’t be surprised to see one go down
 
a lot of feisty 16 seeds today! Sienna had Duke today, just couldn’t make a shot for last 10 minutes or grab a rebound
 
Wow, UNC's defense is horrible. Nobody on the bench that can play D? VCU just outworking them.

Best news is that not only did NIL not change the Cinderella aspect but it seems to have made top seeds a little worse. Lack of continuity maybe? No team loyalty? Whatever it is, I'm actually here for it. It's like the moment you found out that A.I. music actually does suck.
 
I’m not buying Michigan or Duke at this point. Struggling this much leaves an ick that makes it hard to trust them.
