I know this is late, but have any of you made brackets? The first game was last night. How accurate was your bracket?

I just enjoyed seeing Duke lose in the first round.

Does anyone else watch enough NBA for college basketball to be extremely frustrating to watch? Unless they're pulling off those last second full court shots where everyone then runs onto the court, college basketball makes me want to pull my hair out.

I know what you mean. It can look pretty slow and, well, amateur if you're used to the NBA. I watch enough of both that I enjoy the 2 worlds and their differences. I like the amateur emotional feeling of college and I love the added skill and intensity (especially in some rivalries and the playoffs) of the NBA.

I'm just lucky, as a running joke I've bought a bracket with Duke winning for the past 11 years, this was the first year I decided to not do that.
EDIT: As I'm guessing a lot of you are confused based on my age, I legitimately thought Duke would win every year for the first 5 years of that.

Seperate the teams from the college (thought not the city or town), take away the tax-exempt status, pay the players and don't keep letting the NCAA making royalty-free profits on player-named merchandise, and stop draining money from the school and footing taxpayers with the six-to-seven-figure college coach's salaries when 98 percent of programs close at a loss
oh wait wrong thread

Yeah, I can't really get into college basketball. It's always seemed super sloppy to me, plus I've never really had a team to root for. It can be fun when things are intense and watching basketball is always a good time, but it's not nearly as fun as the NBA for me. Plus, I've got two teams I really love in the NBA, so I have enough basketball to watch as it is.
