Thursday Sweet 16 Open Thread

The first weekend is fun for the chaos, but the second weekend it what separates the contenders from the pretenders. Now is when some clocks hit midnight while others move on. Unlike last week, the SEC teams are split up this time around. That works fine for me, since we should have a good one tonight.

SCHEDULE

1 Kentucky vs. 12 Cornell - 9:57 ET

This one matches up two of the four teams to have won their first two tournament games by 15 points or more. Both excel in offense, but while Kentucky's defense is respectable, Cornell's is more in  Steve Nash territory. The signs point to UK being able to outlast the Big Red, but you never know. Sometimes Northern Iowa beats Kansas.
