You've filled out your bracket. You've called out sick from work. You have enough pizza and wings in your fridge to feed an entire sports bar.
1:40 p.m. — No. 7 Missouri vs. No. 10 Utah State The highest-scoring game of the day might be a matchup between two programs who haven't won an NCAA tournament game in more than a decade. Utah State and Missouri boast efficient offenses, though they score in different ways. The Aggies are hard to guard because they space the floor with four or more shooters yet punish defenses who overextend to try to take away the deep ball.
2:45 p.m. — No. 1 Alabama vs. Texas A&M Corpus Christi 3:10 p.m. — No. 5 San Diego State vs. No. 12 College of Charleston Must-see: Two of the few future NBA lottery picks playing in this year's NCAA tournament are in Arkansas' starting five. Nick Smith Jr. and Anthony Black will try to lead the Razorbacks past always erratic Illinois and set up a potential second-round clash with Kansas. How did Arkansas lose 13 games this season with NBA talent splashed across its roster? A big reason is that the pieces don't fit together all that well.
Duke-Oral Roberts isn't just the most anticipated game of this window. It might be the marquee game of the first round. An Oral Roberts team that is far better than the 15th-seeded one that made a stunning Sweet 16 run two years ago will take aim at a talent-laden Duke team that is peaking entering March. Max Abmas is back and even more lethal attacking off ball screens. His supporting cast is even stronger this year, headlined by 7-foot-5 pick-and-pop specialist Connor Vanover.
