Here is your Open Thread for Day 1! Sure, we have already had four games, but the real fun begins today. 16 games over the next 12 hours is the greatest joy in all of sports, especially if there is some mass chaos with upsets.
There will be a separate Open Thread later for the Purdue game, but you can discuss all the early games here.
