Inject it straight into mah veins!

#10(MW) Oklahoma (+2, +110) v. #7(MW) Rhode Island (12:15, CBS)

One team doesn’t belong, one team was looking maybe at a 3 seed before they went all fucktarded down the stretch.  The athleticism disparity on display will shock you, and it ain’t the major conference side who comes out on top…

#14(S) Wright State (+11, +550) v. #3(S) Tennessee (12:40, truTV)

Upset alert!  This will hardly be a game of horseshoes for the Vols, as a mini-late regular season swoon (similar to URI) has the Raiders under-seeded.  This is really like your typical 5/12 setup.

#13(W) UNC-Greensboro (+13, +650) v. #4(W) Gonzaga (1:30, TNT)

Spartan coach Wes Miller has no neck, and I will always remember him as the annoying push shot 3-point chucker from U*NC.  So…fuck ’em, even at tasty ML odds against a choker like the Zags.  Or maybe not, they DID whip NC State in December.  The school is also known as “UNC-Gay” for being the most LGBT-friendly campus in the system.  So, maybe I will plunk $25 on that ML after all.

#16(MW) Penn (+13.5, +750) v. #1(MW) Kansas (2:00, TBS) 

Is that Bill Self’s tighty whities shrinking, or is he just happy to see us?  Vegas must be getting some Team Oatmeal Farts love, as that ML is all the way down from +900.  Too bad I don’t see it.  Ah really want to believe…

#15(MW) Iona (+20.5, N/A) v. #2(MW) Duke (2:45, CBS)

Jim Valvano, “I own a college!”  No, I will never get tired of that joke.  Too bad I see no path to victory for the Gaels.  Maybe they can at least break Ted Cruz, Jr.’s leg?

#11(S) Loyola (Chi****) (+2, +111) v. #6(S) Miami (3:10, truTV)

Hey look, it’s the upset that you will get no fookin’ credit for.  Now I almost want to swim upstream and pick Da U.  But the Ramblers deserve this line, they pretty good, and could easily make the Sweet Sixteen.

#12(W) South Dakota State (+8, +320) v. #5(W) Ohio State (4:00, TNT)

This line is bouncing around like…a jackrabbit?  And yes, I will post the damned song again.  FUCK YOU, it’s great.  tOSU reverted to who we thought they were down the stretch.  SDSU played good ball all year, and the few times I watched them, they looked legit.

#9(MW) NC State (+3, +137) v. #8(MW) Seton Hall (4:30, TBS)

Perhaps the most compelling of the opening fixtures, two fairly fun to watch (albeit flawed) squadrons, and each could at least pester Kansas in Round 2.  Give ’em a look-see.  ACC/Big East matchups should happen with more frequency.
