NCAA TOURNAMENT FRIDAY GAMES OPEN THREAD

One day down, one more to go in the wonderful sporting spectacle that is the first round of the NCAA Tournament.  The first day gave us a 2OT thriller between Arkansas-Little Rock and Purdue, a virtual buzzer-beater from Providence to knock off USC, and a pair of 5/12 upsets that felled Purdue (lol Purdue) and Baylor.  What intrigue will Friday bring?

There are a lot of 2/15 games today (all four, as a matter of fact), which means we'll either see a massive upset... or possibly a slew of blowouts.  There are also a bunch of 7/10 games (including one very near and dear to our hearts), a few 6/11 games, and the last 5/12 game of the day.  Hopefully we see some good drama.

We'll do a separate game thread for the Iowa-Temple game later today.
