    this team (#78 in kenpom and ready to fire their HC when the regular season ended)-   has just done this: to go to the final four. one of the more unforeseen, unpredictable

Did I see that Duke has not beaten a team seeded higher than they since 1994? I reckon a lot of that is because they have been pretty highly seeded in most tournaments as well.

There are some really nice matchups this week. I don’t think I can say right away which game is most interesting to me.

Correct. It’s only been 5 times though - 03, 13, 16, 18, 2023. Every year but 2023 was against a 1 or 2 seed. 2023 was 4 seeded Tennessee 

When was the last time all 1 and 2 seeds made the Sweet Sixteen?  Maybe it happens often but I’m curious. 

man, Friday at Dallas looks to be a great time....would love to have tickets to that.  Shaka goes down after a deep run, and Houston does its' magic and goes to the final four.

Per Google, 2019. But it's only happened five times now: '89, '95, '09, '19, '24.

The tip times for these games are fucking wack. 

Feels like they got them all mixed up.  Should have flipped the times in Los Angeles and Detroit.

They did the same to us in Pittsburgh last weekend. We had the latest game Saturday night.

Just the NCAA doing stupid things, no idea why CBS (and friends) allow this rounds games to only occupy 2 timeslots when they could start the early game 2 hours earlier and push the late games 1/2 back and they'd have a solid 7= hour block of time to sell advertinsing. Maybe they all decided that they were making enough money off the tournament
(lol - now that last statement is crazy)

Today is fucking Christmas Day as it is.  Regionals and MLB opening day.

And I've already dragged out the backup TV and have the D2 Final Four and NCAA hockey regionals on right now. 

And I can't believe no D1 school has hired Nova Southeastern's coach: https://nsusharks.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/coaches/jim-crutchfield/3174

+ Houston Open and for some of us Northern types the first round of the Frozen Four (aka NCAA Hockey playoffs https://www.ncaa.com/scoreboard/icehockey-men/d1

Sucks for me that Bama/UNC has a late start, was looking forward to watching that game. 

Nova Southeastern beat CSU-San Bernadino 91-77 to advance to the D2 title game.  They're now 32-3 after going 36-0 last season and 31-1 in 2022.

Not sure if the networks and CBB decision makers want Sweet 16 games starting at 11am on weekdays. I would love it but understand why it will never happen.

The women’s Friday Sweet 16 day goes 1:30, 4, 6:30, 9. Much more preferable than the men’s schedule 

Too much money spent by the networks to not have the men’s tournament in prime time.

Well I’d say ask the players if they want to tip off after 10pm eastern time, but the networks don’t care 

Here comes the Arizona pants shitting led by the great Tommy Lloyd. At least they won two games this time!

This game should be the nightcap... with an 11:59 tipoff... on truTV.

Starting this game when they did in LA makes no sense.

I mean to be fair, the empty seats you’re seeing are just the Nawf Coarlina fans who haven’t arrived yet since the lower bowl is divided into quadrants for the fans.

Ah, ok. I never knew they did it that way. And I've actually been to a game at this arena. Saw that Michigan/A&M nut dragging back in '18 lol

I still believe zona will beat clempson tonight

Everyone else playing for 2nd.

UConn - great athleticism, team acumen and coaching. 

If the shot is not falling, Arizona will just keep on ramming it in there.
