Holy crap, Purdue. Cutting this awfully close.

What a horrible horrendous end of OT play that was for Purdue. Who drew that up? Fran McCaffery?

Purdue lost?

Purdue is toast, they are offensively challenged

They make iowa's guards look decent

DOWN GOES PURDUE

How you don't go to AJ Hammons more often is beyond me.

Dang, was hoping Purdue could pull that out. I think they would have been the easier draw for ISU.

Double OT in Denver...ISU gets a bye Saturday either way.

Things aren't looking good for the Big 10. The 12 vs. upset special is 2-0..and the last two 5's are IN & MD.

FGC is looking pretty good against NC.

No doubt.....At least Gessell can keep his defender honest. Little Rock just quit guarding the PG position and just let the guy float.

A 16 has to beat a 1 at some point......It doesn't take much before Carolina starts clanking outside shots.

Overall, scoring seems high. Refs calling it tighter?

Yes they are. One of the guys calling the games said they are calling it according to the rules because they are being evaluated...to determine which refs continue on in the tournament.

I think that favors Iowa's style of play. Except, woody better be careful. We need him to be on floor to board.

Hate the stupid play in games... I liked Witchita St as a sleeper but it's hard to pick a team in the first 4 knowing they might not even play in a game that you pick them to win

Seton Hall is so undisciplined and they play crazy. But I can't stop watching. They are insane.

I may regret not sticking with my policy of if Gonzaga isn't a high seed send them to the S16 or better. I picked SH and I may end up regretting it.

Zona went from Elite 8 or Final 4 last year to a first round upset. The legacy of Lute Olsen still haunts the wildcats as he was known for quick exits as zona coach.
