Title: Sweet 16 Games Starting Thursday March 24th
Post by: Marshal Dillon on March 23, 2016, 09:54:25 PM
Tomorrow starts the Sweet 16 games at 6 pm on CBS it's Miami/Villanova, truly a fascinating game. I had picked Miami to make the Final Four. Next on CBS at 8 pm is Maryland/Kansas. On TBS @ 6:30 pm it's Texas A&M/Oklahoma. I hope A&M wins to help the SEC & to rub the Big 12's nose in the dirt.  After that games it's Duke/Oregon.

Villanova has looked great in the Tourney but I still think Miami can take them.

There's only 16 games left. When there were 64 you had to show them early due to time constraints.

 :facepalm:

The fact that there are fewer games isn't lost on me, but starting one at 10:07pm eastern seems a little late.

It reminds me of when Monday Night Football didn't start until  9pm EDT, meaning a 3 1/2 hour game did not go off until 12:30 am or later. TV execs seem to think the folks there don't need rest before they go to work. Even 9 pm in the CDT zone means a long night for most folks.

Well, Villanova looked great against Miami and won 92-69 & then Oklahoma slapped A&M down 77-63 & controlled the entire game. I'm telling you, Nova looks like a National Championship team. Wow.

I had not seen Nova play all season until the Tournament started.  Then I thought, "oops."  Shoulda picked them, at least to the final 4.

For some reason, Oregon just does not impress me.
