Sweet! ODU pulls it out. One upset in the bracket down. The officials just about screwed ODU by not making the call while ND was hanging on the rim and making contact with the ball! No way ND should have been a 6 seed.

Nothing beats the Thurs. - Fri. first round games. Nothing.

Nice tip in for ND at the buzzer for 2 points when they were down by 3!

Looks like OT for BYU-Florida.
Does this mean 2 fantastic finishes simultaneously, one on TV and one on the laptop?

Pretty sure he got the timeout with about 0.8 - 1 second left

This ain't Duke-Kentucky. We're going to overtime.

This would be the time to place your instant prop bet on a game-winning shot.

Oh, man. I love this stuff too much.

That's when the player signaled time out. The time keeper stops the clock when he sees the official's signal or hears the official's whistle - and not before.

I'm aware, but usually in these games the refs will go back and watch film and look for the TO anyway. I've never seen a game with a situation like that where they didn't go back and award the TO.

BYU wishing Ham was uniform today. Getting beat pretty good on the glass.

 

[CycloneErik]

Robert Morris may be ruining my anticipation of Baylor-Villanova.

 

[tman24]

looks like its the year of upsets

 

[jdoggivjc]

Me, either. I thought that was a blowout 2-15.
I'm so glad my living doesn't depend on predicting this madness.

I really haven't bought into Villanova since they got blown out of the building at Georgetown the day after the DC snowstorm, and they haven't done anything since to win me back.

 

[Clonehomer]

Robert Morris may be getting ISU off the pre-tournament shows for their loss to Hampton.

 

[marothisu]

I have to admit...I thought these early thursday games would be **** but they're turning out to be good so far

 

[CycloneErik]

Should we have an over/under on OT periods for BYU-Florida?

 

[CycloneErik]

Villanova is showing a lot of mental toughness to make this comeback, and Robert Morris is back to looking very sloppy.

 

[CycloneErik]

How many screens can Florida set in a 4 second span? That's some impressive effort.

And another OT.

I love March Madness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Villanova has tied that game up.
