yeah TTL, too bad I don't have a bag full of favorite teams to choose from to make up for it.

It's a great strategy.

But now that I'm over them not being in it, I'm very much looking forward to this tournament. I'm not going to be anxious or mad. I just get to sit back and enjoy. The tournament has only ever ended with me happy 2 times so it's a nice change of pace.

First media TO, Florida up 9-8... looks like a very even matchup. ODU/ND about to start.

Im pulling for ODU (even if they did pound LU into the court) because I grew up there and ODU actually was my other college choice after I finished military school

I went a little ODU crazy on my bracket. I'm so screwed if they don't pull themselves together here.

ND was on a 10-0 run, but Bazemore with a bucket and a foul to stop the bleeding...
Misses the FT, gets the rebound, tries a three, misses, gets another board, and gets ANOTHER and one. Good stuff, ODU.
Harangody in early foul trouble with a 15-11 ND lead.

Ruh Roh, Nova! Down to Robert Morris early.
Florida widens the gap a little, and ODU on a nice little run.

I wonder if ODU has ever practiced perimeter defense before.

22-13 Robert Morris with 5:19 left in the first half. Good stuff! This wouldn't ruin my bracket as much as it would ruin Barack's, so I'm cool with an upset!

Robert Morris will take a lead into halftime! 15 over a 2! 28-22 halftime score.

I can't see the game because of work, but I would hope so considering how many 3's W&M likes to jack up.

ODU has tied it up with about 4 left to play.
Looks like ODU fell into a zone and it's working really well for them. ND's "slow offense" is passing up a lot of open shots that the zone is giving them, and trying to attack the zone, and ODU is holding strong.
Harangody has been a non-factor.

ODU may well pull this out, but I wish I hadnt picked them any further.
