The NCAA Championship’s 32 games held on Thursday and Friday are one of the most anticipated TV shows of the year. You should watch as much game as you can, but if you need priority, here is the “No error” to watch, which is from sportsBrendan Marks, CJ Moore and Lindsay Schnell. – Dan Shanoff
Thursday
The best game
(6) Missouri (11) Drake
7:35 PM ET
Somehow, the best game in the first round was divided into TRUTV, which is known primarily for its perennial March queries: “How do I find Trutv?”
Missouri is scheduling gloves through the SEC schedule, but Drake is led by former DII coach legend and several upward transferors he brings – the official “Team No One Willing to Part” record label. Mizzou likes to push the pace; Drake lowers the pace to as low as possible. It’s a engaging game on every level.
cjeome: Drake will be a fashionable upset, and there is good reason. The Bulldogs are 3-0 against the Senior Team this year, and Ben McCollum is one of the best coaches in college basketball, with Bennett Stirtz who recently told me that he is the best defender in the country. Tigers rely on mistakes and prefer to play quickly. McCollum’s team always controls the rhythm. He has not lost in the first round of the NCAA Championship since 2018.
Making things a little more complicated, the other two games in that lasted early Thursday block were excellent: Yale’s No. 13 seed Yale and the coaching showdown between No. 13 seed Texas A&M (7:25 PM, TBS) and John Calipari (10 seed Arkansas) and Bill Self (7 seed Kansas) at 7:10 pm on cbs. (“Multiview” ftw!)
Blow drying work
(4) Purdue University and (13) High Point
12:40 PM ET
Another possible frustration is special! High Point will have most of the US saying “who?” but also: Who cares, it’s so frustrating! If High Point is kept close (it can be tailored through its high octane attack and personnel to match Purdue), this will be the game for your group chat texting.
Brendan Marks: Purdue lost six of its last nine games and its internal defense was exposed. In the last nine games? According to Torvik, it was a terrible 196 nationwide on the adjustment of efficiency; in that time, opponents accounted for 63.3% of 2 seconds, the second of all DIs. no thanks! Thanks to Alan Huss’ top 25 offense, the high point is the first dance in planning history, which happens to be the ninth-highest 2-point shooting team in the field. It smells like it doesn’t match. The high point is the simplest frustrated draft pick in the area.
Amazing back-to-back
(5) Clemson vs. (12) McNees
3:15 pm ET
(6) BYU vs. (11) VCU
4:05 pm and TNT
(8) Gonzaga vs. (9) Georgia
4:35 pm and TBS
Settling down, as the afternoon window is the best game in the entire first round.
•Clemson signed to the 12th-largest team to win everything; its game could end on Thursday afternoon with Will Wade’s fearless Mcneese squad.
•BYU’s “size, depth and offensive execution” vs. VCU’s “defense game and defensive ability” (according to our large board of support). If style fights, it’s an amazing battle.
•Gonzaga ranked 9th in the country’s basic Kenpom, but still stranded by the No. 8 seed; Georgia is under pressure and is the first SEC team to play/defense league record 14 NCAA champions.
Worth staying up late
(5) Michigan and (12) San Diego
10pm and TBS
Part of the fun of the first few days of the game was sitting on the TV after midnight, a team that few people knew knew about knew a school that everyone knew, and then enjoyed the dim feeling when the alarm sounded in the morning, knowing that they had encountered the classic.
Meanwhile: Every “12-5” game is all about being frustrated (or “unhappy” because at this point it’s normal for the No. 12 seed to beat No. 5 seed). UC San Diego has all the characteristics of the classic 12 seeds (this feature on the team is a must read for you); Michigan is about to win the Big Ten Championship.
Moore: San Diego, Michigan is probably one of the most interesting matchups in the 64 rounds. Michigan’s fears were turnovers throughout the season, and the Tritons ranked second in the first division with defensive turnover rate. The only problem with UC San Diego is its small frontcourt. Michigan’s first 7 feet, Danny Wolf and Vladislav Goldin.
Friday
The best game
(4) Maryland and (13) Grand Canyon
4:35 pm and TBS
Lindsay Schnell, choose Grand Canyon: This choice is not very personal to Maryland. This is because the GCU is one of the best and most stable mid-term plans in the country (this is the fourth NCAA appearance of the Antelope in the last five years; they disturbed St. Mary’s last year).
Blow drying work
(5) Memphis and (12) Colorado
2 pm and TBS
Moore: 10 consecutive championships Colorado, one of the hottest teams in the country and one of the best wings in the country in Nique Clifford. His match against PJ Haggerty will be an interesting match. The Rams may end up being a favorite and I love them because Rashaan Mbemba has the ability to match Memphis big shot Dain Dainja.
Then insist on…
(7) St. Mary vs. (10) Vanderbilt
3:15 pm ET
Schnell, support for St. Mary: I will take St. Mary to beat Vanderbilt in the first round and then Alabama in the second round. The Gaelics are a strong, talented, and most importantly veteran. They are made up of one of my favorite players: the crafty point guard Augustas Marciulionis.
Worth staying up late
(5) Oregon and (12) Freedom
10:10 PM ET, TRUTV
Moore: Oregon – Oregon is one of the few locations I am upset about. Like Drake, Liberty has control over his pace and is one of the best three-point teams in the country. Oregon prefers to keep pace. Normally, a match against Ducks coach Dana Altman in March is not usually a good strategy, but Ritchie McKay is one of the best coaches in the Midmarjo class, the best team he has played since 2019, when Liberty defeated Mississippi State freely in the first round.
