Yeah, I think it’s been at least 20 years since the courts didn’t get the special treatment in the opening rounds.
Maybe if it said “March Madness” instead of NCAA Tournament that would be a little more celebratory and less about the NCAA? I think part of why the atmosphere (to me) was so-so today is because they were playing in an arena smaller than most MAC schools have.

Do we know if Amy will make it for the second game?
I haven’t heard or seen anything. I do recall that there was very little said publicly about when Leigha Brown missed several games under similar circumstances.
I’d guess it’s doubtful that Dilk plays tonight.
It looks like they’re on a special court in a bigger venue:

R32 game tipped off vs. Tennessee. They have a 6’5" post that has already gotten 3 OREBs over Naz.
Michigan up 14-12 after one quarter. And that’s with 5 turnovers. One play at a time
Naz getting into a little bit of a rhythm on glass, but post buckets are going to come at a premium with Tennessee’s size. Michigan’s outside shooters are going to decide if it wins this game
Nobody in foul trouble for either team yet. Which is what you like to see out of the refs in a tournament
Huge run to end the half up 9! 20 minutes from the first Sweet 16 in program history

Wow. Would have never guessed that. Feel like our defense has improved immensely in the tournament compared to the regular season
We have Tennessee on skates right now. Super impressive start to the second half
Tennessee has no spacing on offense. Michigan just congesting the lane. Volunteers going to have to make some jump shots to stretch us out or crash the boards big time

I grew up in Tennessee when the Lady Vols were the biggest thing in the state. I could have never dreamed I would see what’s on my screen.

Michigan women up 28-19 on number 3 seed Tennessee at the half, in case anyone wants to look in. TN averages 75 points a game, so. . . great defensive effort by Michigan. Biggest win in program history arguably in the making.

Thought this commentator took her headset off and walked off after admitting she’s been getting names mixed up all game. That was awkward.

Hit the rim from 3/4 court! Could have just as well gone in!

Tried to post this in one of the other forums to attract attention to the game and Dylan moved it back here. The already-converted are here! Oh well. . .
