Doesn't the NCAA have any control over their own damn tournaments? Can't they at least try to--or pursuade the networks to-- steer clear of obvious conflicts? Do they even get to offer a viewpoint over any of this, or have they just sold their souls to the networks? (That's rhetorical; I know the answer).
I'm starting to wonder if, say, Duke gets knocked out tomorrow and CBS tells the NCAA "this is going to tank viewership and, therefore, ad income, so how about you find a way to put 'em back in, NCAA". they'll scramble to figure out a Duke do-over.

"Drake fans with an "Overrated SEC" chant in the final seconds of the NCAA Tournament win over Missouri. #MarchMadness"

pretty hilarious. And, yes, SEC was very overrated this year. Some top teams, but the middle/lower was not nearly as good as the ratings made them out to be

There is some chatter that the committee got Memphis and Louisville mixed up. It literally makes sense.

1000%. Louisville deserved a 5 or 6 seed. Bracket Matrix concurred. Memphis deserved an 8 or 9. Bracket Matrix concurred.

Man Mitchell gets away with hacking and fouling virtually every single possession. It’s incredible how much contact they are letting him make without a whistle.

Based on how today is playing out we are overdue for some chaos tomorrow.

Marquette picked a bad night to play their worst game.
