  Lexington, Kentucky native Shelvin Mack is going off.
  
  You wonder why Tubby Smith and Billy Gillispie aren't coaching at UK anymore. This kid didn't even get a look from them.
  
  Instead, the likes of Michael Porter, Konner Tucker and many, many others got scholarships.
  
  Baffling.

  Butler has a nice team.
  
  Howard is a little overrated for being their best player. He flops a lot and gets in foul trouble quite a bit but he's stayed in this game and it's been key.
  
  However, Mack is deadly and they have Gordon Hayward, a 6-9 guard-forward, only a sophomore but a very versatile player

  This, along with Michigan State, may have been the 2 easiest first round picks for me outside of the 1-3 seeds. Butler is a damn good team. I think they match up well with Murray State too, and expect to see them in the Sweet 16.
• Mulva

  

  And I don't think anyone considers Howard to be Butler's best player. That's pretty clearly Hayward.

  They should smash Murray State.
• THE4RINGZ

  

  Murray States top six scorers all average within one point of each other. Teamwork bitches.

  Northern Iowa/UNLV about to kick off the nightcap on CBS...

  Not sure about Murray State's defense. If they're able to extend the defense and challenge the 3s a lot better than UTEP they'll have a chance.

  Kentucky/ETSU underway

  ^^^^^ should be a real nail biter

  Call me crazy, call me whatever you want; but for some reason, I think OU will beat Georgetown tonight.
• ts1227

  

  Ohio doesn't look special or anything thus far, but Georgetown looks like shit to start.

  Kentucky having its way as expected
  
  fun team to watch, though, even in a blowout mode

  I won't call you crazy, I said in the bracket thread or somewhere that I think they could beat G-Town because they have a legit top level player in Bassett.
  
  I wanted to pick them so badly in my bracket but I didn't, from what I've seen so far they look like they're playing with the energy to make me regret that.
• THE4RINGZ

  

  I have OU winning in one of my brackets. I learned my lesson about picking against the local underdogs last year with Cleveland State.
• wildcats20

  

  Yeah I didn't pick them in anything, but I have a feeling it might be one of "those games."
• ts1227

  

  Georgetown woke up... shit.
• SQ_Crazies

  

  I hate John Thompson.

  Patrick Patterson with 11 points early. UK up 20.
• wildcats20

  

  And OU woke back up.
• ts1227

  

  So fucking pumped!
  
  I know it's early, but I don't care!
• GOONx19

  

  And Eric Bledsoe's 4/4 from deep, he's got fourteen.
