I confess, I haven't watched a college basketball game the entire season, but I always watch March madness. I'm what you would call, a fake college basketball fan. Nevertheless, let's get it on!
I'm right there with you DD! Have watched very little this season. With that said, I'm going to hop on that Gonzaga wagon! Go Zags
Gotta love March madness!!! Better than the NBA.
DD I may be mistaken, but the teams look correct in these brackets but I believe the West and Midwest labels are possibly in the wrong spots??
You're right, I think this is the way it should look. You might have to zoom in to see the teams, I can't seem to find a bracket that's up close.
any brackets with TV start times???
I'm in the same boat every year!
I don't know if this is what you are looking for, but it might help. All central time. https://www.al.com/sports/2023/03/ncaa-tournament-2023-first-round-pairings-full-bracket.html
Perfect...
Clark Kellogg picked Gonzaga to win it all this year, Seth Davis picked Alabama, and Jay Wright picked Marquette. Why don't they ever let Greg Gumbel make a pick? It's not fair!
Friday 9:55pm - #13seed Kent State vs #4 Indiana should be a good one for an upset.
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Not much care for the playin games so impatiently waiting till Thursday
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
First "Upset" of the tourney - #13 Furman 68 / #4 Virginia 67
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Unbelievable game, Furman kept hanging around and then this, here's the ending in case anyone missed it.
The Alabama game is turning into a blowout, why are they showing me this crap? Give me a good game!
Go UNC Asheville, beat them Bruins!!!!
2nd upset of the day - #15 Princeton 59 / #2 Arizona 55
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Arizona didn't score a single point in the last 4:45 of that game
unreal
you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet
The Duke game was a blowout, why do they keep showing me this crap? Give me a good game!
Damn, I'm thinkinging and Hoping tomorrow Kent State vs Indiana. It actually looks good for Kent to pull this off. Fingers crossed............See you tommorow night (10pm)
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
So I wonder if Arizona getting beat in the first round has shut up Bill Walton at all? Hey Bill your second place team in the ‘conference of champions’ just got beat by an Ivy League team. Princeton over Arizona.
Bill the bozo also was spouting off about Washington state deserving an at large bid.
I enjoyed watching ucla and Arizona play late night ( for me) games this year but how walton holds down a job as color commentator is beyond me.
They literally show every single game. Change the channel, man.
Congrats to Arkansas- it is their first win against Illinois in six games.
Penn State is playing well
Congrats to Princeton- that was a huge win.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Don't have cable or satellite, we don't watch much TV, just college football, NFL, March madness and the occasional cop show. Oh yeah, and the Olympics.
because it is duke. media knows what you want.
This didn't age well. Go Bruins.
Then stream it. Just saying they DO provide the games.
Allrighty - the night time games may start bringing out the upsets - #1 Purdue losing - #3 Gonzaga losing. Granted there is plenty time left in both games...........
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
FDU (#16) just beat #1 Purdue - WOW!!!!
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
No thanks, I'd rather sit around and complain!
Only the second time it's happened, unbelievable!
Purdue losing is just laugh out loud funny.
Wisconsin 2-6 against the SEC since 2007
Yes - I remember it was Virginia. If I remember the game was never close?
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Well, you're certainly succeeding!
Yes. Virginia lost by 20.
Well, the San Diego St. game was a blowout!
Arkansas vs Kansas, they finally give me a good game!
1 Kansas goes down.

Finally - a good game to watch today!
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
That's 2 - #1's to go down. Houston playing now
I can't see #1 Alabama losing to #8 Maryland tonight but who knows???
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
Awesome game, a nail biter!
Awbern up on #1 seed Houston.
PRINCETON! Are you kidding me? Still 2 minutes left though!
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
10 point lead at the half - so far so good!
"When they can't find anything wrong with you, they create it!"
i filled out a bracket for funsies and right now it looks like one of my powerball tickets
not one damn number and not even close
you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet
It looks like Princeton is moving on to the sweet sixteen!
Looks like the Tigers beat the Tigers -
GO Princeton!

Bill Self not committing to getting our freshman big man Udeh decent minutes from the start of the season really cost KU today.
So now when we desperately needed a big to compete for boards he wasn’t there because Self didn’t develop him during the season.
Critical strategic mistake.
Case in point… ark. 15 offensive boards, Ku 7.
