CBS, TNT, and TBS are all airing nothing tonight. So of course they would put the first games on the channel I've never heard of and don't get. I'd have to sit in front of a computer to watch them now. What a great way to advertise the "start of the NCAA tournament" or to get people to care about these games (I think the NCAA was trying to get these things on bracket challenges by putting the 'last 4 in' as play-in games...they failed though).

Spoiler

which I will be doing since I do want to watch the games

hehe...you figured that out.

 

[jakncoke]

XD.. also did announcer really just use beating Auburn in a voice that would lead people to believe thats impressive?

 

[The Frankman]

The Frankman has returned... my bracket did awesome until the Elite Eight last year.

didn't you have Cuse winning last year? If so, I assume you have them again.

 

[The Frankman]

Actually no, I view this team as weaker...

Actually my unofficial bracket has the winner as...

It's unofficial though. Need to research more...

UNC-Ashville hanging around refusing to die

 

[ErasureAcer]

Duke and Purdue news at the half of the first game tonight. Wonder what it could be.

 

[jakncoke]

Duke's is probably Irving related

Edit: wonder what he did(purdue suspended dude)

 

[Knux-Future]

Duke's is probably Irving related

Edit: wonder what he did(purdue suspended dude)

Probably had sex

 

[johnny_park]

If you have an iPhone or iPad they have a march madness on demand app. Quality is pretty good and it works over wifi and 3G.

 

[ErasureAcer]

Edit: wonder what he did(purdue suspended dude)

Which dude? I assume not Moore or Johnson. Byrd, Smith, Jackson, the other Johnson? Out of those four I'd say Jackson being suspended would be the most harmful.

just google newsed it. Kelsey Barlow. Meh. He doesn't do much anyways.

 

[The Frankman]

UNC-Ashville hanging around refusing to die

I picked them to win tonight.

I looked at my bracket and I know I have alot of schizo teams going far... but damn.

 

[mavs]

In as mavs with a boring bracket. I can't bring myself to make a crazy one this year.

 

[jjasper]

Irving coming back will doom Duke. Throw off team chemistry and Tennessee will destroy them by 50 book it.

 

[ErasureAcer]

Tennessee will destroy them by 50 book it.

The Volunteers won't even beat the Wolverines.

 

[jjasper]

The Volunteers won't even beat the Wolverines.

Game won't even be close. UT will open that one on a 30-3 run.

 

[jakncoke]

nice, nearly 100 entries into competition.

 

[SamuraiX-]

Asheville about to complete their comeback.

 

[jakncoke]

Asheville about to complete their comeback.

Well they've erased deficits all night, actually go past the point has been the problem

Edit: ok lets get this march madness off to a good start

 

[Kingbrave]

Holy shit! Good game!

 

[ErasureAcer]

Can't believe UALR is going to lose this.

edit-fuck ot.

 

[Kalnos]

shit just got real

 

[jakncoke]

we going OT

 

[jjasper]

damn this mmod is not working for me

 

[bluemax]

TruTV makes my eyes bleed. The lack of HD is annoying.

jokes on you, I get it in HD :>

 

[jjasper]

The NCAA is really dropping the ball. Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to put games on truTV? Also why the fuck are local teams not automatically on CBS? You have four channels so all games can be televised yet you don't put market teams on local channels? Makes no sense. Like they are trying to compete with the NBA for shitty TV.

 

[ErasureAcer]

damn this mmod is not working for me

You gotta click the launch button and then at the top there should be a "watch now" button in red that you have to click as well.

 

[jjasper]

I did it just says [Loading......] probably just my garbage internet.

 

[ErasureAcer]

I did it just says [Loading......] probably just my garbage internet.

=(

 

[jakncoke]

oh wow..

 

[Brian Fellows]

You should really get used to things not going your way now so you are less disappointed on Friday.

 

[The Frankman]

Like I said earlier, UNC-Asheville wins this.

 

[Pollux]

Game over...now onto UAB and Clemson...

 

[jakncoke]

haha

 

[The Frankman]

Because I haven't seen any UAB, I picked Clemson to win. You guys?

 

[ErasureAcer]

These games don't matter for our pick em...so I "picked" nobody but I think Clemson will win as well. But then I was wrong thinking UALR would beat Asheville...so who knows.

 

[The Frankman]

I know but I use the research on my picks, so I at times relook and adjust them.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

I'm picking UAB. But mostly because I am liking seeing ESPN bitch.

 

[Bowser]

If you have an iPhone, you NEED to get the free NCAA MMOD app. The streaming quality is awesome. Stuck at work and our conference room TV doesn't have tru TV, but I'm covered thanks to this app!

 

[jakncoke]

Clemson rolling over UAB

 

[Bowser]

ACC stand up!

UAB GTFO. Should have been Colorado or Va Tech in your place.

 

[Azwethinkweiz]

Clemson rolling over UAB

We shouldn't have been pushed back to being one of the last four in. ACC got hated on pretty bad by the selection committee this year.

 

[jakncoke]

UAB showing some heart

 

[GodfatherX]

lol CUSA..after this that conference should carry the same weight as the Ivy League

 

[jakncoke]

lol CUSA..after this that conference should carry the same weight as the Ivy League

These guys won the regular season in the 8th best conference! ok!

 

[bucknuticus]

This game is so awful, these teams are baaaaaaaaad.

 

[DJ_Tet]

Definitely. The conference was treated very harshly. Glad to see NC State and Georgia Tech finally taking steps to improve their situation. Clemson in particular got a raw deal imo. Had they held on against UNC they could have been a 7 seed, to put them in the play-in round is a joke.

Va Tech had their shot and blew it. Laughably.
