After 3 GAMES: Only 86,737 perfect brackets remain.

3rd time in NCAA history that TWO 14-seeds advance to the round of 32. 1995 (ODU/Weber St) and 1986 (Ark-Little Rock/Cleveland St)

Only 5% of the Tournament Challenge Brackets on http://ESPN.com had UAB beating Iowa State.

Thanks Texas. Another loss on my bracket.

The #BIGXII got 7 teams into the #NCAATournament. So far, they're 0-3. Yet again: strength of the conference means little come tourney time.

SMU has to be sick! Terrible way to lose; a goaltending call on a 3-point shot. #MarchMadness

 

Matt Brooksâ€@MattBrooksWP6 mins6 minutes ago

That was... just... oy. RT @slmandel: Bryce Alford finished 9-of-11 from 3 -- the last one on a goaltend.

 

Dave Johnsonâ€@DaveJohnsonDP4 mins4 minutes ago

I'm going out on a limb here by saying this was the first NCAA tournament game ever decided by a goaltending call on a 3-pointer.

But again, 3 games that have been decided by just 1 point. It gets no better than that, and this tournament is just beginning.

Per the notification on my phone, only 14,797 (0.12%) of Tournament Challenge brackets on ESPN remain perfect after first six games.

When I asked #Texas AD Steve Patterson if Rick Barnes would be back next season, he said, "I'm not talking."

Ohio State's Sam Thompson did an excellent job defensively on Treveon Graham that possession. 2nd straight year VCU plays OT in NCAA Tourney

 

Eric Hobeck retweeted

day session of 8 games gotta be an all-timer: 1 OT 3 games by 1 point 1 by 4 1 by 8 only 2 bad games: AZ, X wins

 

 

Eric Hobeck retweeted

Again, the best start to an NCAA Tournament I can ever remember

GAME RESET: Ohio State 73, #VCU 70, 22 seconds left in OT, #Rams with possession....

 

 

RVA Sports Networkâ€@TheRVASportsNet33 secs34 seconds ago

#NCAATournament 2nd Round FINAL: #10 Ohio State 75, #7 #VCU 72 (OT)....

 

 

Matt Estreichâ€@MattNBC1246 secs46 seconds ago

Ohio State beats VCU 75-72 in overtime. Rams with two costly turnovers late in the overtime period.

 

 

Josiah Turnerâ€@JsiahSports1 min1 minute ago

That's four straight seasons where VCU has made it to the NCAA Tournament, but failed to get to the Sweet 16.

 

 

Josiah Turnerâ€@JsiahSports2 mins2 minutes ago

That 2011 Final Four VCU squad raised the stakes for all the teams to follow them. It's hard to live up to what they did.

The UVA basketball team is accused of playing a boring style. Tomorrow the #Wahoos will try and excite their critics http://www.wdbj7.com/sports/uva-basketball-team-hoping-to-excite-critics/31903970 …

This piece by @DavidTeelatDP is, unquestionably, the best-ever write-up on what Bennett Ball at #UVa is all about:

I for one enjoy watching Belmont play.  This year's team is not as talented as their norm, but they play a game predicated on movement and crisp passing.  When they are on, they can really light it up.

 

I don't expect this one to be close, but I would love to see what Belmont's coach Rick Byrd could do with ACC caliber talent in his system.
