The commentators last night were dividing the day into 4 groups of 4 and that makes a certain amount of sense. I’m posting Afternoon and Evening editions so there are 2 groups of 4 in each piece. I don’t have eight eyes like a spider or 4 TVs so I’ll generally be concentrating on 1 game in each group with sporadic updates on other contests.
Then there are errands to run and my beauty sleep.
In the first group of 4 games the one I’m most interested in is West Virginia v. Clemson. Clemson looked dominating against Alabama-Birmingham and West Virginia is one of the toughest teams in The Big East, but streaky. I have no idea about the individual matchups (I’m not that into it).
As always feel free to contribute your commentary about any game.
In the late Afternoon group Pittsburg just crushed in The Big East regular season and I expect they’ll do the same to UNC Asheville.
This all makes much more sense if you take a look at my Master Bracket Schedule for the Round of 68. For a more traditional bracket try CBS Sports.
