9:57 Eastern STANDARD? We're on daylight savings time now.

BTW, who comes up with these random times? Why not an even 10 p.m.?
The games never start on time, might as well go with something unique.

I have a grown up job. These games are too late .. is red bull paying them to do this?

Being an Uber driver doesn’t count sir.

Pretty sure we all (or most) have jobs, but one night of missing some sleep is worth it IMO. This tourney is a once a year thing, if the game started at 2am I’d find a way to watch it (cuz I’m a man)

ANd because that wasn't enough...


Ya know, that still brings tears to my eyes.

Nothing will ever bring me to the edge of my seat as much as Brewer breaking free with the ball and an open court. You just knew it would be followed by a roar.

I feel like the committee did a terrible job this year. March madness is all about the cinderella's. The small schools going up against the big schools. I don't want 15 loss P5 schools and on that note...let's get HYPED UP!

3:27. One of the iconic moments in Gator history let alone sports history. I get chills watching Noah doing the Gator Chomp.

As do I. But I will still be up however late it goes.

They try to guestimate times based on previous games and all the overlap that goes on. But as you said, nothing starts on time. It's all a crapshoot.

With PSVue, I'll have three games going on my living room TV at all times, the Mrs. will start watching at noon. We will be up for it, might not be so awake the next day at work... but it's Friday.

UCLA currently up 1 with about 13 minutes left. Any thoughts on the teams given we play the winner? Who are you all hoping wins and why?

The Bonnie zones they’re throwing at UCLA worries me a little. We’ve shown we aren’t very effective vs zones.

I’d rather see UCLA also because they’re a big time program and our guys wouldn’t take them for granted like they may St Bonaventure

UCLA is very turnover prone. They are currently throwing it away like a piece of garbage. Gators would turn them over a lot. Plus they tend to stand around a jack up bad shots. Their big 7 foot three point shooter is having a bad game vs St Bonnie. I don't like our matchup with him.

St Bonnie has a good zone...like Jay said ugh.

At least we have a familiarity with St. Bonaventure after playing them last year. They gave us everything we could handle, should be a good game. To our advantage, they’ll be in bed late tonight and tired from traveling to Dallas.

TBD = St. Bonaventure.

Our hopes of breaking UCLA hearts again is ruined!
