    True. Growing up in the 70s, a lot of these films would show up on local TV either during the day or late at night. I remember first seeing Spartacus when it played over a couple of days on WOR's Million Dollar Movie.

Also, spotting the differences between a team's Pomeroy Rank and their seed is one of the best methods for predicting deep tourney runs or flameouts.
