NCAA Tournament Live Blog: Friday, 12:20 p.m.
OK, so, maybe we didn't have the most ecstatic day of NCAA basketball yesterday — other than Duke, of course — but we have big hopes for today.

Not The Most Exciting First Seven Games ... But There's Plenty To Go
All right, so there were no buzzer-beaters, no upsets — all the top seeds won, annoyingly — and no real tight games ... but we're just gonna assume that's the luck of the draw. We'd like to thank Mr. Shanoff for some excellent live-blogging of the afternoon games, trying to make some of those dullar...
