I haven't followed college ball in years, but I still like watching it over NBA.
So I threw my darts and we'll see how they do.
I'm betting I'm in the bottom 5.

Where can you watch online?
I want to see the second half of this potential 14 over 3 upset with Georgia/Xavier.

Wow Georgia/Xavier is a shocker! I didn't expect Xavier to make it that far but certainly past round 1.

Watching a bit but work is pretty busy.
Here's a bet I have with my friend this year.
Will a 16th seed ever take the lead against a #1
Didn't happen this morning as the closest Portland State got to Kansas was 3-4.
I got 3 more chances

Yeah, I doubt very many picked Georgia over Xavier. Still time though. Come on Xavier!
Kansas is killing Portland. No surprise there.

Thank god. I have Xavier winning two games and then losing to Duke.
EDIT: The only major upset I have in the first round is Villanova over Clemson.

Anyone try watching online?
They have a priority queue you need to wade through before you can start watching. Didn't take more than a couple minutes before things fired up though.
It crashed my browser (Firefox) after a while. The game itself played at low volume but the ads were much louder. I had the video playing in a window in the background and after a while I got booted. Apparently, something pops up that you have to respond to or else you lose your connection. It's a test to make sure there are no idle connections.
Also, there's a boss button that mutes the volume and displays a spreadsheet. Kinda tongue in cheek.
Despite my fears, I was able to access the feeds here in Calgary. I thought it may be restricted to American IPs only like all the television streams on the major networks' websites. Good on the NCAA.

Ya I was #706 in line. I thought I'd be waiting for the better part of an hour, but within 30 seconds I was in. I like that you need to prove you're still watching or they'll cut your feed. Otherwise people may just leave it online all day, even when they go out to run errands, leaving people wanting to watch now waiting in line forever. That's a really good idea!
