The first day of the NCAA Tournament is over, and the results were actually somewhat short of the March Madness moniker.
Of the 16 games on Thursday, 14 of the winners were the higher seeds, with the only upsets coming from 11th-ranked Xavier and Mid-Tennessee.
Interestingly, we didn't have any game-winners or too many crazy finishes, with the exception of a heartbreaking blunder by Vanderbilt against Northwestern.
