3:13 p.m.: Wow, the day is just flying by, as we get set for round two of the live blog thing. The second games of the day have already begun, as Marquette is up 23-19 on Kentucky, it's 6-6 Pitt and Oral Roberts, and 16-6 UNLV over Kent State A note from the Xavier-Georgia game, XU trailed by 11 points in the second half, but used a 22-6 run to come back ... Xavier was 27-of-33 from the charity stripe, while Georgia was just 3-for-5.
3:20 p.m.: Listening to the Pitt game, as I have friends who are Pitt fans. Pitt is up 15-13 early in the first half. Let's hope it stays that way, as my friend said on Selection Sunday after I told her who and when the Panthers will be playing, "Oh they will lose, everytime they win a big game or a game they were'nt suppose to win, they go out and lose the next game." Way to have faith.
3:33 p.m.: Pitt is up eight after scoring 11 straight points ... Pitt is out rebounding ORU by 10 ... Meanwhile, it is 29-10 UNLV over Kent State with about two minutes left in the first half ... It's 33-29 Marquette over Kentucky.
3:41 p.m.: So far I thought work would be a problem, but apparently things have gone well, watch I just jinxed it ... It's 31-10 UNLV at the break? Well, that's what it says on the NCAA March Madness on Demand scoreboard ... Kentucky takes the lead over Marquette, 34-33.
3:49: In the first half, Kent State was 5-of-23 from the floor, for a 23.8 percent clip.
3:53 p.m.: I'm tired just thought you all would like to know.
4:01 p.m.: Interesting stat from a reader on Dan Wetzel's blog Each of the losing teams in the first three games finished with 61 points and all three of the teams losing at the half had 26 points.
4:06 p.m.: Big game tonight, as Syracuse faces Maryland in the second round of the NIT ... Well it may not be the biggest game of the day, it is the one I care about the most.
4:17 p.m.: Haven't been into the later games too much, been in and out, doing some other things.
4:33 p.m.: Well since the afternoon games are winding down, and I am wrapping up things here, I will take a little break and return live from blog headquarters for most of the night games. It's been fun and hope you have enjoyed reading along. We will be back later tonight, and tomorrow for the second day of the first round games. thanks
