Bama Game Thread: NCAA Day 1 Thread - do breakout games if you feel the need

Drake just grinding Mizzou to dust.

Bacon bits hold on to win.

Drake’s 11 point lead feels like 31.

 

[Bpilktree]

Bennett Stirtz from Drake looks like a bug transfer portal guy. He can shoot and score in bunches.

Mizzou has it within two

 

[CajunCrimson]

Mizzou looks uninterested.

I'm not liking how Pat is calling this game either.

 

[CajunCrimson]

Pat Adams still sucks but glad he’s not in Cleveland.

 

[AUDub]

Drake being good defensively I get, but how do they emit some sort of gestalt field that makes their opponent forget how to play basketball altogether.

Where is the Missouri that dominated Bama

This is just what Drake does. They somehow turn the opposing team into drooling morons. It literally never fails.

Outside of Arkansas, not a great day for the SEC. I didn’t watch Tennessee but only 15 over a 19-15 Wofford that was sixth in the SoCon? I sort of watched the barn but they weren’t super-impressive. A&M struggled with Yale. (At least they won).

No such thing as a bad win in the tournament.

Remember what I said the other day: you're always one future used car salesman going unconscious from three from an early exit.

Of course, the other aphorism is "survive and advance."

Ugly wins>pretty losses.

Omaha is hanging with St. John’s pretty good. Seems they prepped well for the press.

pretty boring 1st day

UC San Diego comes up just short. Almost pulled off the upset.

No. 10 Arkansas leaves fewer than 1 percent of brackets perfect

How every NCAA men's and women's bracket busted in 2025 March Madness

We tracked millions of brackets across the major online games to see how long brackets could remain perfect in the 2025 NCAA men's and women's basketball tournaments. Here's how it went.

pretty boring 1st day

No buzzer beaters and not many were super close. Higher seeds were 12-4. Wins by 9,10,11, and 12. McNeese over Clemson was the biggest upset to me.

NIL is probably going to lead to chalkier tournaments.
