This gap is too damn long

[Arizona_Sting]

The gap in-between the first two rounds & the Sweet 16 is a day too long, imo. Not only am I craving March Madness basketball right now, but giving teams this much time off in-between games could potentially kill some momentum.

I mean, is 5 days really necessary?? Wish tomorrow's games were today and Friday's were on Thursday.

Prob has something to do with classes? also money

 

[podsox]

I think it is perfect the way it is.

 

[TrollyMcTroller]

Yeah, I think it was just right.

Monday was all recuperating
Tuesday was all analysis.
Wednesday is building anticipation.
Thursday's on my mind
Friday'd give me time
Saturday could wait
But Sunday'd be too late

Sorry... went off the rails there a bit. Seriously though, It's perfect.

Nah it works how it is. Thursday/Friday and Saturday/Sunday gives the best chance a viewership as well.

Tourney on a fucking Wednesday wouldn't feel right

 

[The Derski]

Today is wednesday right?

You can watch NIT "basketball" or women's "basketball".

easybeatn meatn...

Monday morning feels so bad
Everybody seems to nag me
Comin' Tuesday I'll feel better
Even my old man looks good
Wednesday just won't go
Thursday goes too slow
I've got Friday on my mind

MSU vs OKLAHOMA 10:07pm/TBS

In other words, "I can only deal with my CBB withdrawals during March for 3 days." -Sting

In reality, I get the break. But I was thinking the same thing, I need that shit in my veins!

 

[dcZONAfan]

I did almost no work today. Tomorrow will be even worse. You can tell it's the Arizona fans feeling it really badly because we haven't had a final four in so fucking long it's just time to end that goddamn drought

An my team plays at whatever time Friday. Deal??

But our last game was Saturday while yours was Sunday so it evens out. Also, NO!

Dammit. I want a little recognition for quoting Sting lyrics (no, not that one, the other one) when replying to Sting (yes, that one)

(okay so it was completely unintentional but an awesome coincidence)

Apparently Bo Ryan does not agree with the premise of this thread.

I know the Wisconsin people were bitching that all the other teams in the West played on Saturday and had an extra day off and then have to play on Thursday instead of Friday.

They got home from Sundays game at 1am on Monday morning and then were on a plane at 8pm that same Monday to get out to LA. So they will have 2 days of practice Tues and Wed so there isnt 5 days for all the teams.

The 3 other West teams played on Saturday so had an extra day off

You would think they would make each region all have the same amount of days of rest
