So glad we didn't lose to Tennessee three times in one year. Though the football win would help the sting at least.

Lexington sucks. If I had to live in Kentucky again, I'd settle for Berea.

Should someone (me? I don't know anything about college basketball out of the context of the players as NBA prospects) make a tournament gameday thread or is this fine?

There should definitely be one on Thursday but I think the play-in games and NIT can go here just fine.

I'm a little upset that March Madness will pre-empt new episodes of Impractical Jokers, and, in addition, they've run 2 clips shows out of the 5 episodes aired this year. Horrible show management.

It’s an NIT only thing as an experiment. Couple other rule changes too.

Bigger lane, shorter shot clock, sightly longer 3 pt, double bonus after 5 fouls/quarter.

Earliest any rules could show in main game is 2019.

I think it's a close game that's actually bad. Or, I've completely forgotten how games tend to look when Syracuse is playing their zone.
