New and Improved with Special (and a subtly different pain in the ass) Table for Results.
Oh, you want me to talk about it? Next week maybe when I’m not quite so sleep deprived and the load is easier. All about the process I am.
Since I’m batch processing these you’ll get outcomes in the early session piece until the distinction becomes irrelevant. Winners’ scores are Bolded. Upsets have a Vonnegut Cat’s Ass next to the School (though it should be obvious anyway as lower seeds are always on the right).
Speaking of, upsets on Day 1 of the Round of 64 were Minnesota, Murray State, Florida, and Baylor.

I’ve decided to break the games into Early and Late sessions. CBS of course wants you to plant your butt in front of the screen all day, but the truth is that the Early stuff is all CBS all the time so you could watch every single game from beginning to end if sheer volume is your goal.
I’m dividing it because of the tendency of items to slide out of consciousness off the bottom, especially on busy days (Did something happen? I wasn’t paying attention. March Madness!). Thus the Prime Time games will be posted closer to Prime Time.

Charles Barkley is the best dressed sports commentator ever. His tie is just gorgeous and coordinates perfectly with his shirt (light blue0 and his dark grey suit with just a hint of striping
This is a clash of two really strong, motivated teams which was often tied
