Bama - Charleston unlike any basketball game I've ever seen. Both teams playing like they're being chased by tigers.

They're not taking advantage of turn overs, and there are many opportunities to do so
It feels pretty normal to me. If anything more games that have been closer until they start pulling away.
It looked like kid from UVM tore his ACL in the last few minutes of the game. Cringed when I saw it.
For the tv freaks like me, according to my guide the CBS stand-alone times for Sunday are 12, 2:30 and 5:00. My guess is UConn-NW at 12, Duke-Wisconsin or JMU at 2:15, and Purdue-Utah State or TCU at 4:30. Here’s my guesses.
Brooklyn: UConn-NW 12
Brooklyn: Duke vs Wisc/JMU 2:30
Indy: Purdue vs Utah St/TCU 5:00
Memphis: Baylor-Clemson 5:40
Spokane: Alabama/C of C vs St Mary’s/GCU 6:20
Indy: Colorado vs. Marquette 7:30
Memphis: Houston vs. Texas A&M 8:10
Spokane: Yale vs. SDSU 8:50
Brooklyn: UConn-NW 12
Brooklyn: Duke vs Wisc/JMU 2:30
Indy: Purdue vs Utah St/TCU 5:00
Memphis: Baylor-Clemson 5:40
Spokane: Alabama/C of C vs St Mary’s/GCU 6:20
Indy: Colorado vs. Marquette 7:30
Memphis: Houston vs. Texas A&M 8:10
Spokane: Yale vs. SDSU 8:50
JMU is really putting it upon the hapless Badgers early.
JMU has very pretty movement on offense - back door cuts, screens and good movement around the perimeter. Nice.
A friend of mine works at GCU so I go to their games all the time. With no other college rooting interest I always root for them, very much hoping they don’t choke
I called a Grand Canyon victory. I love their style. Drive right at defenders, get them in foul trouble, and don't miss from the free throw line.
Tony Bennett’s father Dick Bennett coached at Wisconsin for a few years in the late 90s. Similar style.
I played 25 Men's brackets and 25 Women's brackets on ESPN and I'm 16/16 in one of my Women's brackets (pure luck, of course). Does anyone know what percentage of Women's brackets are perfect after 16 games?
EDIT: Never mind, my son texted me the answer.

That GCU v St Mary’s game didn’t end until like 115 am Eastern. That’s unacceptable.

I'm sure when you were in college you absolutely loved NCAA games that ended well after midnight. I know I did. Those nights were going to end with a 3 am Wawa hoagie or Pat's cheesesteak, so it was nice to have a basketball game take you a good portion of the way there.
But alas, now like you, I mostly resent having to stay up that late.
And 10:15 west coast time. Not sure I see the problem since their viewing day starts at 9 AM.
