The 2010 NCAA tournament came on strong in the first day. After a couple years of very few upsets and little drama, the opening day featured 3 overtime games, game after game decided on the final possession, and at least two buzzer beaters, and four bona fide upsets.
The mighty Big East was 1-3 and needed an OT comeback win by Nova over #15 seed Bobby Morris. Villanova dodges Robert Morris' upset bid in OT
Marquette looked like golden chickens as they stood around watching the Other UW drive and score the winning bucket. Pondexter's leaner lifts 11th-seeded Washington Likewise, Texas defense looked paralytic when Wake Forest scored as time ran out to pull off the win. Smith's late swish sends Wake Forest by Texas
Murray State pulled off the play of the day to beat Vanderbilt with a literal buzzer beater; time expired as the winning show was in flight. Murray State stuns No. 4 seed Vandy at buzzer
We didn't get the Ohio upset over Georgetown on TV, but that was the biggest shock of the day. Ohio just is not that good of a team (sub.500 in the MAC). Ohio stuns Georgetown to end tourney drought
Even Lehigh gave Kansas a tussle for about 30 minutes before falling away.
And most wonderful of all, I sit atop the pool standings for at least one day.
Today is Big Ten day.
