:siren: March Madness Day 2 :siren:


Welcome back to the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship! In case you missed it, click here for a quick summary.

Day 1 saw no less than four major upsets, including the loss of two #3 seeds and a #6 seed. Notre Dame almost was the first #3 to flame out in the very first game. Hampton even played Kentucky close in the first seven minutes or so. Will the madness continue? Will all the underdogs win? Does anyone care about your stupid bracket? The answer to the last one is no.

Here's the schedule! As always, games bolded whenever I feel like it.

Echoing the poster who I think was a Baylor fan....if my Cyclones lose, then all of the Big 12 ought to lose. Crabs in the bucket and all.

Bad, very bad!
Will Tanveer Bhullar play? He averages like 4 mines a game anyway I think but I don't know if he's hurt or not.

I mean, I don't think he's good, but he is very big and might change the game by stepping on someone's foot or something.

Let's go Robert Morris! This is their last chance before Toole gets poached by some lovely big school.

Iowa State losing will probably be dramatically less funny in about 7 hours but right now? Still real funny. Hopefully Hoiberg bolts of the Bulls job too (he absolutely will not).

Right now go Iowa Team I Have The Least Strong Opinions About, I guess.

I have a bad feeling the Iowa teams are going to go 0-3. Which would be pretty shameful since they are all 7 seeds or better...

I'm actually worried about this just because they want Kansas so bad.

New Mexico State has a lot better size than I expected, although I guess Kansas isn't the biggest team in the world this year.
