It's Time For the Second Half 

Note: keep refreshing this post

2:40--Not Surprisingly, Louisville faces no big second half challenges from Stanford and cruises to a 78-58 victory. I've said it before an I'll say it again, with the exception of Oregon and UCLA, the Pac-10 sucks.

2:35
--Oral Roberts leads Washington State 6-4 after four minutes. In ESPN.com's National Bracket over 21% of America picked the Golden Eagles to pull of the upset, while no more than 6% picked any of the other #14 seeds. Sure, Washington State isn't any good, but this is a case of people wanting to pick an upset and not really thinking what pick has the best expected value for their bracket.

2:25
--Maryland dominates the paint in the second half and pulls away for a win. Thanks to Stanford deciding not to show up, we now have 6 minutes without competitive basketball. Cardinal coach Trent Johnson is now on my enemies list.

2:17
--BC pulls away and then hangs on down the stretch for an 84-77 victory. 56% of America rejoices and begins to count their NCAA tournament pool winnings. Tyrese Rice finishes with 26, Dudley adds 19 and sheds no tears.

2:15
--Mike Jones...For three!!!! Maryland leads by 7.

2:07
--According to Deadspin, if you have a Mac and are trying to watch March Madness on Demand, you're screwed. All my years of stubbornly sticking to PCs are finally paying off.

2:00
--Bambale Osby begins to take over as Maryland grabs a 4 point lead. Davidson is starting to look a little skaky, and a little more like a team that almost lost to Brandeis two years ago. (I couldn't hold out any longer without making a Brandeis reference.)

1:53
--Kevin Harlan (I think) finally mentions that Greivis Vazquez played high school ball at Montrose Christian with Kevin Durrant. For some reason that has been one of the most unknown and underrated stories of the year. By the way I'm not sure how, but that team managed to lose two games.

1:51--BC leads by three with seven minutes left--unfortunately I can't watch the game because every time I click on the link to watch the video, Cbssportsline just send me to the college basketball scoreboard. Thanks guys.

1:44
--The CBS cameras finally found Del Curry, I think for the first time. Somebody should be fired for having it take that long to find him, although in CBS's defense, I don't know what Del Curry looks like.

1:36
--Davidson starts the second half on a 9-0 run to take an 8 points lead over Maryland. Who do they think they are--Miami?

1:33
--Maryland heads into the locker needing to figure out a way to stop Stephen Curry. The Terps come out for the second half and promptly allow Curry to score five straight points.

1:27
--Is it just me, or does it seem like when BC's John Oates eschewed his shaved head and grew his hair out he changed from in inside banger to a finesse shooter. Oates had three treys against Miami in the ACC tournament and he already has three in the first half today.

Well if the game is on CBS on your tv, then it blacks it out.

I have Maryland but Curry is amazing. He can carry this team. I wonder if Davidson is starting to get tired though.

Oral Roberts looks pretty nice in the early going.

Easy, do you have Washington State losing to Oral Roberts, if you think the Pac-10 sucks?
