It's First-Round Thursday, which is always the best day.
Thursday always seems to be better than Friday on the opening weekend of the NCAA Tournament. There's probably a reason for it, but whatever that reason may be it's usually Thursday where chaos reigns. It seems like every year, everything goes nuts on Thursday, and we're sitting here thinking "man, this could get out of hand quickly", and Friday everything settles down for the most part.
Of course, this year it feels like there will be no chaos. Part of this is because the agents of chaos mostly found themselves in the NIT.
