Looking very impressive.

Saturday a day where we could shut up a lot of critics
Butler/Notre Dame
Villanova/NC State
Georgetown/Utah
Xavier/Georgia St

gotta squeeze the 2 tomorrow though. Especially the PC/Dayton game.

I have that as a 4-0 day...Vegas will probably have it as a 2-2 day, but with the way Utah and Notre Dame struggled, I like the Big East's chances to have 4 in the sweet 16 on Saturday and a 5th on Sunday.

EDIT: I have no idea why I'm discounting St. John's chances. They were up 8 on Duke after 33 minutes (or something like that). Obekpa is a big defensive loss, but hardly an offensive one. Plus, Pointer plays like a 7 footer with the way he can block. Maybe the Obekpa loss will allow SJU to put more offense on the floor and complete the victory this time. Obviously, this is assuming their offense is better than San Diego St.'s defense (which I think it is).

Come on, Georgetown. Put this away.

Freakin Georgetown sleepwalking at the end here....

There is a 0% chance Georgetown doesn't advance, no worries.

These refs seem to be trying to manipulate the score, at least it seems that way...

Another Georgetown turnover. Very poor final 8 minutes of the game.

Nice win Georgetown.

Nice win Georgetown. Great day for the Big East. Hopefully it continues tomorrow.

looks like times for day 3 are set-
Xavier/Ga St 610 TNT
Nova/NC St 710 TBS
Georgetown/Utah 745 CBS
Butler/ND 940 TBS

All Big East teams have covered today, three of four by double digits (not to mention going 4-0). Nice.
