Bought tickets last night for Florida/Vtech at Hinkle -- fun atmosphere even with limited fans. Makes the wait for tonight even more exciting/nerve wracking

A lot of sloppy play early in these games. Hopefully our fans don’t overreact, because we should expect some sloppy play early in our game.

I had forgotten how many commercials and how long the breaks are for these games. Our game won't end before midnight

Anyone going out to watch the game, or is everyone watching from home? Was thinking about NB but looking for suggestions, especially considering its gonna be rather cold at game time to be outdoors.

No one knows what Colgate is, including Arkansas. Colgate won 14 games on 5 total opponents. Its hard to scout that. I think there will be many more upsets, seeds 11-15, and higher numbered seeds making runs than 2 years ago, only a 5 seed and a 12 seed made sweet 16, every think else was 1-4 seeds.

Looks like a Princeton team of old.

I think in these games you find out alot of teams are nervous and tight coming out. The ones who get more comfortable as the game goes on tend to do well. We saw that last night with two comebacks and another near miss. Even today Florida was pretty dreadful early but tightening this game

Looks like Colgate hanging very tough after losing momentum before halftime. Arky cannot shake them

From this thread, it looks like more people are watching Colgate-Arkansas than VaTech-Florida which is a four point game with 3:40 left. Interesting. I'll switch over once the earlier game ends.
