First Four Open Thread
Catholics vs. the Sinners.
I'll go with the Sinners - even though it is Lent...
History of man.
Game.
Catholics
NIT games start at 7 on ESPN/ESPN2 as well. Illinois is in action at 7, Indiana at 9, and Oakland at 8.
How about OSU? :)
Pistons/Cavs at 7 too.
one more chance to jeer Maverick Morgan!

I've taken to calling him Sir Maverick Morgan, and I see no reason to stop. :-) Dakich and Robinson even called him out on their podcast as having been a significant motivator. It's shaping up as one of the greatest cases of unintentional motivation by disrespekt in U of M history.
He's Battle bitter.
Usually I'll watch these games, but after watching 4 straight this weekend I think I'll pass yil Thursday.
Cool story. I think they nearly dropped to DIII post-Katrina but just managed to stay DI and now are in the tournament
These teams are clearly not good. I always thought it was mean to make the four weakest automatic qualifiers play to get in the real tournament though.
all fighting for the 16 seeds.
They are all going to lose so why not give them a 50/50 at a tourney win. Id much rather have a goal of a winnable game then get run off the court.
Is it on the bracket?
Then it's the tournament.
MSM leaving about 5-ft gap on most players around the perimeter
Thinking about driving down there if we make it.

Thomas and Thibodeaux should get the ball every time down the court, cause Gill can't shoot worth shit (31% 3PT on the season)
Uh...they left you 2.9 secs to go full court. I know you can't shoot 3s, but you left yourself no chance
Just got home after another interesting day at work, just in time for some basketball - I very nearly forgot about the play-in games in all the chaos of the past week, but I am coming around to the things that truly matter, like the NCAA Tournament. No, the stuff I've been doing for a week now matters too, but now basketball is my distraction since my family is mostly asleep when I get home lately.
K State's mascot scares me.

That isn't what should make you feel good about Friday. Michigan should make you feel good about Friday.

ACC is 0-1, garbage league. (/s)
