[UpsetAlert]

Thanks for this. Assuming we win (fingers crossed), what’s the likely schedule for the round of 32 game?

 

[CappyNU]

Based on last year given we are the farthest west site, our game would likely be at 6:10 or 8:40pm central on Saturday night.

Thanks Styre. This is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the performance of the year!

 

[No Chores]

Well, so much for Rutgers! Maybe they didn't get screwed after all. They went down to Hofstra in the NIT

 

[Styre]

Michigan defeats Toledo and Wisconsin defeats Bradley. Michigan will visit Vanderbilt and Wisconsin will host Liberty in the second round.

Styre-I appreciate your TV listings every week and the amount of time it takes to prepare them. Thanks again

 

[Styre]

Updated with the Saturday schedule.

Updated with the Saturday schedule.

Amusing to see that PSU just crushed Texas A&M. Hope all the Big Ten teams win today, because we beat all of them. Can't do anything but help us on the national stage, particularly with recruiting.

I really enjoy Steve Lappas. Definitely sounds line he’s got a pal named Guido who’ll break your freakin’ legs.

Catalon and Lappas are great. They did our NCAA games in 2017 and they've slowly become one of CBS's best pairings.

 

[No Chores]

Nice double digit win by a team we beat, MSU, over USC today.
Further enhances NU's reputation!
