The Michigan State game has been amazing, now state doing very well. State down 11 now up 11 at half.

Big 10 going to finish 5-2 in first round...great recovery but all but Purdue get very tough matchups...I would say Michigan has a shot at UL....MSU playing like they did today can challenge Kansas

They started slow and nervous for freshman but now their talent is showing up. Miami is crazy athletic and State is hanging Neck and Neck. Should be a great last 11 minutes.

Least dramatic opening round in a long time... no 13-15 seed to advance in a long time

Michigan has scorers at every position and they won't be intimated by Louisville.This might turn out to be one of the best matchups of the tournament.

To that point, I believe Oklahoma State shot 55% for the game, out-rebounded Michigan 40-21, scored 91 points ...and LOST. That's insane.

The only true upset was USC over SMU.

MTSU and URI were favored. WSU was a big favorite. Xavier was a 2 point dog, so perhaps that was the second biggest upset after USC.

Hope for a more exciting weekend.

If you are only counting the top 3 then yeah the Pac 12 is the best conference but other that and USC its trash. Pac 12 is top heavy but the the bottom of the league is really bad. They have basically 3 bad bottom feeders and alot of mediocrity and middling. 3 outstanding teams and 1 good team
