If i am cincy I would be a little scared vs Nevada. Under rated team. Played like a hot mess for much of the game looking unimpressive for spurts but suddenly wakes up, starts plugging away, did not back down when Texas punched back and wins it. Glad to see another over rated big 12 team out too.

True, but they got manhandled on the boards by Texas (one of Cincy's strengths) and played 5 guys more than 40 minutes and only play six total. Cincy's defensive pressure should wear them down.

Not a lot of games to get excited about right now.

Maybe keep on Texas Southern to see if they can pull the big upset.

Big rooting interest later on in TCU. Go Horned Frogs!

I feel bad that Ollie ruined the entire sport for you to the point where you can’t watch other games without thinking of him.

I am enjoying the hell out of these games. But the ugliness of this program over the last 4 years has been seared so indelibly in my mind that it's impossible not to notice the contrast.

For sure I miss seeing uconn and spending Sunday until Thursday or Friday worrying about that first match up and another 5 or 6 days, typically, worrying about the s16 matchup.

Funny that game makes me wonder why I spend so much time watching.

The officials basically did everything possible to keep Nevada in it and send Texas home.

16-0 run for TX Southern, answered by a 16-0 run for Xavier.

There is a wide ranging pro Nevada conspiracy among officials.

It's just annoying. Hard to believe those were some of the best of the best when they're that incompetent.

we know a guy like Higgins sucks. These guys were just atrocious though.

Awaiting the TCU game. Getting a little nervous, most important game in the dance coming up.

3 out of 4 early evening games are competitive. Can't ask for more than that as a fan.

Did I miss something? I just turned on my TV and none of these games look good. I'm just sitting here and pounding General Tso's chicken until the next set of games are on

The MSU officiating is ridiculous. Spartans are just fouling with impunity on defense, and Bucknell is called for a touch foul every time MSU misses a shot.

Another touch foul called on Bucknell, and Michigan State gets a no call on what should have been a flagrant on defense right after.
