This is rich. Our local CBS affiliate us Savannah, GA is showing their stupid St Patties day parade instead of the game. They think they are the Irish capital of the US. Supposed to end at 1:30 and got to the game then.
Yup. I’m here too. It’s ridiculous. Having to watch on my iPad.

I have never liked them adding the NBA analysts to the telecasts. I don't think these guys have the depth of knowledge about these college teams and talk in generalities. They are more likely to just guess and go with the usual big name teams.

Expect a higher % of sjw flavor to the production.

I hope Michigan gets their azz kicked.

That incident earlier in the year made me change my opinion of Juwan Howard. I wouldn't be surprised if Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley to talk glowingly about him. But I'm not pulling for either team since they would be next on the schedule.

It's complete BS that Michigan made the tournament let alone gets to play as an 11 seed only 4 hours from their home stadium..

CSU has some pretty good shooters but I’ll bet they’ve never seen defense like we play. We have the bigs to offset Michigan’s size and if their point guard is out, they’d be in trouble. Assuming we get by Longwood, I’m comfortable with either opponent Saturday.

CSU should have extended the lead more in the 1st half. Might cost them the game.

Think that PG will be back if they get thru to Saturday. Frankly, I really want no part of Michigan. We just have a dismal history against them. I'll take my chances with our guards vs the CSU guards.

Michigan storming back. Interesting! Like I said, CSU felt like they had a chance to bury them in the 1st half. They didn’t. Now, they’re in trouble.

We need to exorcise the Michigan demons.

Michigan looks to have some nice bigs, but like you said I agree that we will be able to offset them.
On the other hand I think they have no answer to guard our speedy guards. I just hate how they get home field advantage as an 11 seed.

Colorado State looks exhausted. I think we tire them out and put some pressure on their shooters. I agree that they probably haven't seen or will be ready to handle a defense of our level. I also think we will have a size advantage. Winning both the turnover battle and rebound battle should be our advantage and I don't see them overcoming it.

Struggled with ball-handling passing too without Devante' Jones. If he's still out, our backcourt would have a field day with them.

Wow, just checked my bracket and I am still tied for first. I am ignoring the fact everybody is still tied for first till this first game is over. I don't have a lot of hope for a high finish. I picked my bracket to force all the rematches possible. Mich, Nova, AU, and Texas Tech except I was not watching when I hit the button and got Houston over Zona by mistake. Hope that does not cost me a perfect bracket.

Yeah, watching this game I’m hoping CSU can win. I think Michigan has a lot more ways that they can beat you, and I want no part of Hunter Dickinson.

I hope Michigan wins. I think we matchup better and they haven’t shown any consistency at all this season.
