It will suck if one of the games turns into a blowout and there's nothing else on

Yea, they should have just condensed the games into a 5 hour window.

I appreciate a full day of basketball, but only if there's enough good basketball to fill that time.

I believe that Arkansas over Oral Roberts and Gonzaga over Creighton will both be blow outs. When teams are favored over 8 or 9 points there's always the potential for a big blow out.

That's what makes the stagger great. Creighton might hang in for a half, and then when the game is out of hand, you turn on the Syracuse game, etc...

Prolly partly due to COVID and partly due to fact that NCAA knows it has no viewing competition for sports right now.
 
I don't see the reason why there is such a long gap between the first and second round to these later rounds. It made sense when teams were in different regions and needing to travel, but since everyone is in Indianapolis, waiting 4 days for the next games seems sort of ridiculous.

They should have started back up Thursday

They made the gap bigger. It is normally four days between rounds 2 and 3. This year is is five days. Based on the delay until Friday in the first round I feel like there must be something with testing and five days or something.
 
A lot of people aren't excited about today's lineup but I think we could end up with 3 great games. I think Oral Roberts run is probably over but the other 3 games could be good.

My Ramblers Sweet 16 shirt is set to arrive today via UPS. Would be a shame if they lose then I receive it. That would also be mildly funny.
