"NCAA Basketball Tourney - Week 1 discussion thread"
Let's use this thread to discuss the games March 15-18. I think that is 48 games (plus the 4 that happened prior, if anyone still wants to talk about those).

Wow, 8 games are final and no upsets. That is... upsetting.

Looks like the closest was #1 Syracuse struggling with #16 UNC Asheville. (UNCA were even leading at half time). This would have been a huge upset, even with Syracuse hurting with the loss of one of their star players.

Chalk that one up to a total screwjob by the refs. The inmates in The Longest Yard got fairer refs than UNC-Asheville. Maybe a well-timed chest pass to the crotch for th head ref would have straightened this out.

I was watching the Davidson game on the computer while doing some other stuff. At one point I remember thinking they were going to give me an upset somewhere.

I've been a Davidson fan for years. My former boss played for them years ago.

6. "RE: FSU"
What happened to Michael Snaer of Florida State? I did not see much of the game. He did not score one point. Not one!

This is the guy who burned up Duke and UNC in the ACC tournament last week. He shot over 50 percent in FG and over 70 percent in 3 pointers. Today? Zilch.

FSU squeaked by today. Maybe Snaer will show up in the next game. They will play Cincy.

...Mizzou. I had them as a Final Four team. Chalk up another one for the history books, as a fifteenth-seed (Norfolk State) knocked them off. Oh well.

Two people had them winning it all in the SBOT Nose Pickers pool. Fortunately for me, I wasn't one of them.

I had a Virginia team upsetting Mizzou, just a very different Virginia team.

I also have a perfect East bracket so far.

So, one of my friends posted on FB that he would start a "Anyone But Duke" athletic scholarship for Lehigh, guess that motivated them!

23. "RE: Patriot Act."
We were in a motel near Fayetteville, NC and the kids started watching the Duke-Lehigh game. They'd never seen any basketball game before and asked who they should cheer for. I said that I almost always cheer for the smaller schools and so said Lehigh. It was cute to see them cheer for every basket all the while I'm trying to temper their expectations because I didn't expect that outcome! By the end of it, my 4-year-old is chanting "Lee-high. Lee-high. Lee-high" It was too cute!

24. "For the Duke Blue Devils"
LAST EDITED ON 03-20-12 AT 04:50 PM (EST)

(with apologies to Afroman - heard this on the radio on the weekend, and kept thinking it linked to Duke this year)

Because of Lehigh

We were gonna be a 2 seed until Lehigh
We were gonna win all these games but then Lehigh
Now we’re not playin not more and we know why (why man?) yea heyy,
- because of Lehigh (repeat 3X)

(La da da da da da da da da)

We were gonna be a dynasty before Lehigh
Coach K was the winningest coach but then Lehigh
(La da da da da da da da da)
Now we’re stuck planning for next year and we know why, (why man?) yea heyy,
- because of Lehigh (repeat 3X)

(La da da da da da da da da)

We thought we were the kings but then Lehigh
Tobacco Road royalty but then Lehigh
now we’re just watching on TV and we know why (why man?) yea heayy,
- because of Lehigh (repeat 3X)

(La da da da da da da da da)


We’re not gonna play more ball because of Lehigh
So we’re just gonna sing this song because of Lehigh
and if we don’t all turn pro we’ll know why (why man?) yea heyy,
- because of Lehigh (repeat 3X)


In case you don't know the original song:

Ouch! Three teams I wanted to advance tonight all bit it: Memphis, Duke, and Michigan. How sad for Ryan Kelly of Duke to have sprained his ankle and see Duke lose the ACC tourney and then bow out in the NCAA. I'm bereft!

And the bracket is blown up! ;)

Wow. In 20 years, only four #15 seeds have won. Today? 2 more. Shocking.

If anyone gets a perfect bracket this year they will more than deserve the $5M that Yahoo is offering.

Still very, very early in the game (6:40 left in the first half) but Kansas is only up by two in a 2-15 seed matchup against Detroit.

19. "RE: NCAA Basketball Tourney - Week 1 discussion thread"
I'm wondering.... what is the impact of the trend of players going to play at the top BB schools (like the top 25) and then jumping to the NBA after a year or two? Certainly this trend has shifted how teams are built at the top schools?

But is this a problem at the non-top schools? Are they able to have more cohesive teams with more juniors and seniors?

Look at last year's F2. They were largely unexpected to be in the F2. Did they have more cohesive teams? Will there be a repeat of that again this year?

21. "Week 1 winners"
The Big Ten. 9-2 in the opening weekend, with 4 schools left (OSU, MSU, Wisconsin, Indiana). Naturally, I lost in my most important tournament (one pick each day. can only pick a team once, winner gets the whole pot) by picking the one Big Ten team that fished out: Michigan.

Ohio schools. Doesn't matter which league, even. OSU (Big Ten), Cincy (Big East), Xavier (A-10) and Ohio U. (MAC) are all left, the first time ever that one state has produced four of the Sweet 16.

Kentucky. Wow. Just wow. But now we'll see, with their rematch against Indiana.

Major conferences. Here's who's left: Big Ten 4, Big East 4 (Syracuse, Marquette, Louisville, Cincinnati), SEC 2 (Kentucky, Florida), Big 12 2 (Kansas, Baylor), ACC 2 (UNC, NC State) -- that's 14 of the 16 from the power conferences, plus the 2 Ohio schools (Xavier, Ohio U) to round out the field.

Eastern Time Zone teams. 12 of the 16 play in EST, with the exceptions being the two Wisconsin schools and the two Big 12 schools, all of which play in CST. The MST and PST were annihilated.

To all the Big Ten haters out there: Take that!

If Purdue hadn't choked down the stretch last night, the Big Ten would have five Sweet Sixteen teams.
