After a year's absence due to the pandemic, March Madness is back.  And it's all gonna take place within a single city. 

68 teams will be inside a single bubble in Indianapolis.  And in the end, only one will go the distance, and be crowned national champions.

The selection show is 90 minutes away.

Super excited for this. Last year being canceled broke my heart.

Georgetown winning the Big East tournament was wild to watch too. Good for Ewing.

I’m very intrigued to see if they still give a spot to Duke even though they weren’t good this year. Should be interesting to see how they handle this.

Sorry Blindy, St. John's didn't make it this year.

Wow. No Duke. I thought they’d get a bone thrown to them but they didn’t.

Gonzaga and Illinois have been playing extremely well lately. I like them two teams the most. Time to make some brackets!

It was over as soon as they lost to the Pirates in the Quarters, Georgetown did what St Johns needed to do. Still happy with the season overall, picked 9th in the BE and still finished 4th in the regular season with a young team granted. They will be back.

Florida/Virginia Tech is MARCH MADNESS at it's finest.

Up 64-61 with 6 seconds left; Florida misses BOTH free throws and Virginia Tech gets the rebound and BANG! 3 POINTER TO TIE THE GAME WITH 1.7 SECONDS TO GO.

OVERTIME MADNESS.

It's all about that one shining moment. how do you miss both free throws and not foul there?

For real.

Fortunately for Florida; they escaped with the win.

Happy for them, their best player Johnson collapsed couple months ago that had him in a coma for a little bit.

Yeah that's cool.

Oral Roberts leading Ohio State 36-33 at half. A 15 over 2 upset? That would be wild. I still think Ohio State runs away with this.

So many winners have made big comebacks in the 2nd half of games so far yesterday & today. First Drake did it, then UCLA and today Arkansas.

Ohio State is on the verge of being BUCKed off.

ORALly BUCKed Robert.

The pressures of March Madness.

What an awesome ending.

15 seed Oral Roberts destroys everyones brackets by beating the 2 seed Ohio State.

Had another pretty big upset today. 12th ranked Oregon State over #5 Tennessee.

12 over 5 don’t really surprise me.

#13 North Texas upsetted #4 Purdue.

That big enough of an upset for you KING KID?

Brackets busted already for me. But yeah this is MADNESS.

Ohio State getting knocked off fast definitely busted my bracket, but I'd just look at it as karma for the Buckeyes getting into the College Football Playoff after only playing half of a season.😂

There are only 108 perfect brackets left out of 14.7 million after one day. Crazy.

That is fucked.

I wonder how many of those 108 were just people clicking the randomize button or picking all upsets.

Well there goes another team I had in the Sweet 16. Georgetown getting spanked.

I think that's just another case of how weak the once powerful Big East is.

Breaking just moments ago.

VCU was forced to forfeit their game vs. Oregon today due to someone on the team coming in contact with someone with COVID.

Terrible shame that had to happen. I'm sure Oregon didn't want to win this way.

I’m sure Oregon doesn’t care. You play to win the game.

That’s one win. No matter how it happened. One step closer for them to win it all.

OOF!!! Virginia's out.

One and done in 2018 as the #1 overall seed.
National Champions in 2019.
And now, it's one and done again to #13 Ohio.

It's like making a cheeseburger with grade-A beef, and two moldy buns.
