March Madness 2026 Thread

Feel like we could use a general thread to discuss all the other games.  
 

Of note, SMU right before selection Sunday announced that BJ Edwards would return from injury for the tournament.  And (absolute shocker) he’s not playing tonight.  Committee got duped.

Like it

I know people say Miami shouldn’t have made it in but they are fun to watch.  They just let it rip from 3

[LonghornFan4Ever]

Wow Miami (OH) shoots a lot of threes

[pinkman_90]

10-25 from 3 in the first half for the Redhawks.  Up 9

[Paul Jespersen]

TCU / OSU who you got?
2 of my least favorite schools, so I'm watching while sitting on my hands...

It's Duke vs errbody😈

[CJ Vogel]

Would very much like it if Ohio State could be the orange in the hoop.

[JMarquette]

The 5-12 and 4-13 matchups intrigue me this year. 

[Paul Jespersen]

TCU looks like a bunch of guys from intramurals or something.🤣

🤘

I looked down at some point after making my bracket and saw I had all 11 seeds moving on.

Had to tweak my algorithm.

They're straight punking Ohio State on the boards right now.

TCU should be up like 20 if they could make 2' shots...

Ohio State looks terrible.

TCU is swarming them defensively and 6-12 from deep.

6 brave souls in this one.

Ohio State will always have football.  They did win a hoops natty in the ‘60s and made multiple Final Fours in ‘99, ‘07 and ‘12 though.

[Paul Jespersen]

TCU taking it to them.
Shooting % better from 3 than from inside 3' but whatever works.
And they are totally locking down OSU w/ D and blocks and boards.

🤘

I've never seen such a loose handle in my life. Coach always said if you play with your food in front of a dawg, don't be surprised when he takes it😂 SMH. Come on Troy do better🤷🏿

[CJ Vogel]

Troy has no business being on the floor today.

[LonghornFan4Ever]

The first tournament win ever for Nebraska is inevitable.

Apparently neither did Ohio State. Down 15 to TCU right now.

Yep, Buckeyes are getting smoked right now.

I know I know that it's the first round and games like these are expected, but I swear it's more entertaining to watch my dog being every toy she owns to my bed is more exciting😂
