Bit the bullet and will be taking the boys to the Friday game. Really hope our bench is the Bucks (home) one, or we might be trapped in a sea of TX/XU fans haha.

My last and only tournament game was Arizona ‘05. If it’s 1/10 as good as that one it’ll be worth the money

Feel like the play-in game winners tend to get hot and go on runs fairly frequently. That's the worst part about the draw.

Yeah that has happened in the past. As much as we get some extra rest we don’t know our opponent until 48 hours prior to the game

This can be good or bad. Our opponent doesn’t have much time to prepare for us. Because each team needs to take each team one game at a time.

Will be interesting how BU preps this week

We could not ask for more. IF we even got to playing an 11 and Kentucky in what will be basically home games for us. Then we would get to play any game after that in Indy?

I admit, I think we are a flame out team, but if ever there could be a great path to the Final Four for a “higher seeded” team this is it?

Second place is 1st loser said:
There are three sessions:

Session 1 - noon and 2:30 tips
Session 2 - 6PM and 8:45 tips
Session 3 - Second Round

I'm going to all three sessions, but I believe you can buy just one. Could be a bit more difficult.

Very easy to buy just session 2. There is breakout in ticketmaster and Stubhub (where I purchased). Problem is the cost is very volatile. I locked in session 2 for $250 plus fees.

I will try to reserve Illinois block tomorrow through the school, but I am likely too far down the list.

That is volatile! I was able to get all three sessions for $450+ fees. Consider enjoying the entire day and potential Illinois vs Kentucky on Sunday. Better deal!

I really hope we get to see more Rez and Tomi on the court. We rebound and don't turn the ball over like it's been soaked in vegetable oil, we can put a run together.

the price, before fees, has gone up a couple hundred in the lower bowl since Illinois and Kentucky were announced for the second session on Friday.
