2015 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament: Round of 64 Day 1 Evening

Meta note- The Razorbacks’ site is a useless piece of crap!  Video (none for the Tournament of course) and no schedule.

There are others that are difficult (looking at you Harvard and you NC State) but at least it’s there somewhere.  I hope you and your non-standard impossible to find anything IT crew get booted quickly you losers!

2015 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament: Round of 64 Day 1 Afternoon

Some meta notes-

During the Rounds of 64 and 32, especially tomorrow when both the Men and Women have 16 games each, it is very difficult to provide in game updates and I don’t generally try unless it’s of particular interest.

You are free of course to post your own commentary if you wish.

Also during at least the early rounds there will be one consolidated Afternoon and one consolidated Evening diary for the Men’s Tournament and the same for the Women.

I’m going to try and keep up enough that I can provide all the previous day’s results in the Afternoon diary as sometimes teams change between Afternoon and Evening starts.  Until the later rounds they never change days in the two day rotation so if I get behind I’ll slip the results so they appear the same day the team plays next.

The links in the tables take you to the college’s main basketball page and to it’s schedule and record against every team it played during the season.

Enjoy the Tournament!

2015 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament: Play Ins Day 2

It’s hard to characterize any of these results as upsets.  Manhattan was a mild favorite and lost, Old Miss a mild favorite who won.  Tonight (and every night for that matter) we will continue with teams I don’t root for since UConn (defending Champions) didn’t make the cut and sentimental favorite Syracuse is under a 5 year NCAA penalty with Jim Boeheim scheduled to retire in 3.

He was no damn good anyway, his players could never hit the clutch free throws.  Besides, it was Daryl Gross’s, the AD’s, fault.

So the only team I’m rooting for is State (Michigan duh) and they’re not that good.
