March has been college basketball's ultimate month for decades, but March Madness might gain another definition thanks to the inaugural College Basketball Crown tournament. Take Monday's first-round game between Nebraska (17-14) and Arizona State (13-19) at MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. It's definitely postseason basketball, but it's a clash of two teams riding five-game losing streaks that haven't played in three weeks. It's also two programs in a state of flux due to injuries, transfers, coaching moves and more. It almost feels like the Cornhuskers and Sun Devils must fit this game into their busy schedules as if it were a dentist appointment instead of a trip to Sin City.
